After the smoke goes out

The winter solstice is approaching, a thin wall can’t block the cold, the cold wind swishes in through the crack of the door, rushes into the fibers of the clothes that are not so tight, penetrates the thin layer of skin, penetrates into the bones go.

Almost all the people coming and going on this campus put on winter clothes and wrapped themselves up tightly. Occasionally, a few girls wore winter skirts and leggings that were too thin to block the wind. Makes a person chill.

Wen Su sneezed. He sniffed, pulled up the scarf around his neck, and covered his face. His fingers were a little stiff from the cold, and his hand holding the pen was so stiff that he couldn't even write well. He simply put the pen aside and buried his head in the textbook.

Yu Chen wrote the test paper for a while, then turned his head to look at Wen Su, he frowned slightly, and tore off some of the scarf that Wen Su was covering his face with.Wen Su seemed to be asleep, with his eyes closed and his mouth slightly open.

The scarf was pulled off, and the coldness licked his cheek again. Wen Su raised his hand and rubbed his frozen nose. When he opened his eyes, he saw Yu Chen looking at him. He straightened up in a daze, and asked : "What's the matter, have you collected your homework?"

Yu Chen shook his head, turned his head and continued to write the paper, he said: "No, you slept with you." He held the pen and calculated on the draft for a while, then moved the answer to the test paper.

Wen Su lay back on the desk, and then fell asleep again. He put his hands in his pockets, and fell asleep after a while. Although the weather was terribly cold, it was easy to get sleepy.

The hands of the clock in the classroom turned several times, the second hand moved again, the bell rang for the end of get out of class, and several people pushed open the door and walked out.The classroom door was wide open, and the wind was blowing into the classroom, making the girl sitting in front shiver and sneeze from the cold.

After a while, someone called Yu Chen's name at the door, and several people gathered around the door as if they were watching the fun.

Wen Su woke up. He stretched his neck and looked at the door of the classroom full of people. There were so many people who looked like they were about to fight. He frowned and asked, "Who is looking for you?"

"I don't know." Yu Chen said, he stood up, and walked towards the door, with a calm and indifferent look, completely different from the people at the door who were excitedly calling his name.

A girl stood at the door holding a beautifully packaged box, and looked inside timidly. She looked pretty cute and pretty. When she saw Yu Chen walking over, her face blushed suddenly.

Wen Su followed behind Yu Chen, sizing up the girl blatantly, and said, "Someone brought you a gift again." He put his hands in his pockets, turned his head slightly, and pulled away from Yu Chen. distance.

Yu Chen stopped in his tracks, stood at the door, looked at the girl, and asked, "What's the matter?" His tone was lukewarm.

The girl took a step back, lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Yu Chen, but handed out the gift box in her hand, her face was as red as a ripe apple.

Wen Su leaned against the wall, turned his head and glanced at Yu Chen, seeing that Yu Chen didn't answer, he couldn't help letting go of the breath that was stuck in his heart, but the words that came out of his mouth were still terribly sour, he said : "You take it, it would be great if someone agreed to it."

Yu Chen turned his head and glanced at Wen Su, he frowned and took the box over, thanked him, but just as he finished speaking, there was a lot of shouts at the door, those people around the door pushed the girl towards Yu Chen Pushed, booed and said: "Confession."

The girl blushed, and took a long time to say what had been accumulated in her heart for a long time. After she finished speaking, she began to wait for Yu Chen's response with all her heart. After waiting for a long time, she didn't hear Yu Chen's voice. Looking up timidly, he saw Yu Chen turned around as if he was going to leave.

The wind made her cheeks a little dry, and her nose was freezing cold. Wen Su looked at Yu Chen and said, "How embarrassing you are for others."

Yu Chen paused, looked at Wen Su's slightly raised lips, and said, "That's fine."

The cold wind rolled up the fallen leaves that fell on the school road, and lifted them slightly to the corner.There are far fewer people walking on the playground and on the school road. From a distance, a few scattered people pass under the trees in a hurry. Those bare trees seem a little lonely.

Yu Chen's promise to the girl was passed on to the next class. Even if it was a cold day, no one would be surprised to see Yu Chen walking with that girl.

Since that day, Wen Su didn't say a word to Yu Chen again, even in class, he turned his back to Yu Chen, ran out of the classroom after class, and walked back to the classroom slowly after ringing the class bell. It was colder than the wind outside.

On the podium, the teacher wrote line after line of writing on the blackboard with chalk, and then called Wen Su's name. Wen Su didn't care to attend the class, so naturally he didn't know what the teacher was talking about. He pursed his lips and stood stubbornly, saying a word Did not say, the teacher had no choice but to let him sit down.

Yu Chen looked over at Wen Su, but only saw Wen Su's back wrapped in a thick winter coat, so he had no choice but to look away, holding the pen and writing the question again.

Even if the two of them are in the same dormitory, Wen Su still detours when he sees Yu Chen, or passes by him without seeing him. Going down, the eyes also dropped to the ground.

This situation lasted for about a week. In the past few days, Yu Chen had less and less contact with that girl. He just sat beside Wen Shu when he had nothing to do. back with a straight back.

The wind outside the window howled, hovered in the open space outside the teaching building for a while, and then passed by the window, the open window was blown and hit the window lattice with a bang.

As soon as the get out of class bell rang, Yu Chen went out.After hearing the sound of the chair moving, it took a while for Wen Su to turn his head to look. He was a little annoyed, so he stood up and took out the basketball under the table, and then ran to the court near the teacher's dormitory building .

There was no one on the court, and a few dead leaves were blown up by the wind and landed on the edge of the court, covering a corner of the white line printed on the ground.

Wen Su stepped on the white line and walked along the line for a while, when he suddenly put the ball on the ground, and then took off his thick winter coat.He was only wearing a thin vest inside.

The dark winter clothes were casually hung on the basketball hoop. He picked up the ball with his bare arms, endured the chill that seemed to penetrate into his bones, and started to run on the empty and lonely court.

The basketball fell into the basket far away, and then fell to the ground, banging on the ground and rolling for a long distance.

When Wen Su was about to pick up the ball, he saw Yu Chen walking from the small path. He lowered his eyes and didn't look at Yu Chen again, turned around and went to pick up the ball.

Yu Chen went straight to the basketball hoop and took off the overcoat that Wen Su had hung on it. He approached Wen Su, put the clothes on Wen Su without any explanation, and said, "Put it on."

Wen Su lowered his head, remained silent for a long time, and suddenly said, "Don't you want to talk to me?"

"It's you who didn't say it." Yu Chen said, knowing that Wen Su's temper was stubborn and he would take soft things rather than hard things, so he calmed down his tone and said, "Put it on quickly."

Wen Su sniffed, pulled his clothes and put the gloves in, and said, "Where's your sister?"

Yu Chen bent down and picked up the ball at Wen Su's feet, and said, "I have nothing to do with her." He seemed worried that Wen Su would not believe it, and said, "Really."

Wen Shu's tightly pursed lips suddenly loosened. He smiled, his nose was red from the cold, and he felt much more comfortable in his heart. He raised his jaw and said, "I'm hungry, let's go to the back door Let's eat skewers."
