drowning

The huge neon lights in the amusement park seemed to adorn the fading summer scene, but Xu Yanxin lowered his eyes in disinterest.The tall boy took the cone that was about to melt from his hand, and took a sip. It smelled like rich dark chocolate, half bitter and half sweet.Xu Yanxin was so sad that she didn't even care about the ice cream, she said blankly: "I will never forget these few days in my life."

It was a sentence without beginning or end, but because of Xu Yanxin, it became worth chewing and swallowing.

Jiang Yu thought that no matter how long it had been, he could still recall the grand scene of that day, such as the lush poplar trees on both sides of the road, the clown with a red nose in the amusement park, and the hairy monkey standing on the side of the road in a ridiculous posture. Falling and eating shit...he will never forget it in his life.But after only a few days, he couldn't remember those fragmentary laughs and the flourishing end of summer. The tightly clenched tail of Xia Ri disappeared while he was not paying attention, but Xu Yanxin was the only one left in the depths of his memory. Here, let him browse and appreciate it.

Ten years later, 20 years later, whenever Xu Yanxin forgets a little bit, he will take pains to point out the memory between midsummer and early autumn.

When Xu Yanxin returned home, she was scolded before she put down her luggage.

Xu Zhao taught him lessons from poems, songs, and common sense in life, just to keep the attitude of the chief prosecutor.Xu Yanxin was depressed when he heard it, and lived on Jiangyu's jokes. On the return journey, Maohou said that he had to play for money, otherwise he would lose money and had to go to a haunted house. Jiangyu firmly disagreed, saying that Xu Yanxin was afraid of ghosts and would sleep at night No, be timid.He was moved, but he said with empathy that I'm not afraid of ghosts. What he didn't notice was that the hairy monkey had a deep smile, and he didn't notice Jiang Yu's gloomy face.

Facts have proved that although he is weak and sick, he is mentally strong. He has never been afraid of ghosts and ghosts. There was a lot of red, and the face was blacker than the bottom of the pot.He recalled Jiang Yu's muffled groan in his throat, and couldn't help but want to laugh. As soon as the corners of his mouth twitched, Xu Zhao pulled him back to reality, and said, "Think carefully, am I right?" ?”

After being stunned for two seconds, he lowered the corners of his mouth and said, "I know I was wrong. I shouldn't go back and live at grandpa's house temporarily." Xu Zhao wanted to reprimand him, but Shen Feng picked up his schoolbag from the porch and put it on the table. Upstairs, he was sitting on the sofa, pretending to cross his legs obediently, and remained motionless. Xu Zhao frowned and waved at him. He walked painfully and followed Shen Feng upstairs, with a face full of remorse. When he turned the corner, after confirming that Xu Zhao was out of sight, he gave his father a doggy laugh.Shen Feng shook his head and said: "You have completely failed at learning."

When he got to the room, he lay on the bed and looked at the blue wind chimes beside the bed. Xu Zhao's words had already entered his left ear and came out of his right ear.But before he was happy for two seconds, he turned over and got out of bed, opened his schoolbag, and saw that the gift box he had carefully packed was still lying there intact.He dialed the phone and listened anxiously to the beeps coming from the receiver.Nine seconds later, the phone was connected, and Jiang Yu's voice came: "What? We only separated for a few minutes." He glanced at his watch and replied, "It's been more than three hours. Are you free? I forgot to leave Here's a gift for you."

"Are you stupid or not, you will go to school tomorrow."

"Oh, yes, yes," he smiled, "I forgot about it, then, see you tomorrow, you can look forward to it, if you guess correctly, I will treat you to a popsicle."

Jiang Yu also laughed: "Then what if you didn't guess right? Shall I treat you to a popsicle?"

He was stunned for two seconds and said yes, Jiang Yu paused for three seconds and said, "Then I won't guess. I want to treat you to a cold drink."

He clenched his fingers and let out a long groan. For a moment, he didn't know what to say. He sat by the bed for several minutes, and he didn't even know when he hung up the phone.

There are still more than ten hours, but he has already thought about the ice cream he will buy tomorrow.

After only being separated for a few hours, Xu Yanxin felt shy as if they were reunited after a long absence. There was no agreement, but before physical education class, Xu Yanxin consciously moved to Jiang Yu's side in small steps, faltering and fumbling to say something. He also jumped up and looked at Jiang Yu's face cautiously, wondering if Jiang Yu felt weird like him?

He didn't even have time to think about the weirdness of it, Xia Song who was passing by hooked his shoulder casually, touched his hot face casually, and shouted: "Are you two in love?" Xu Yanxin put aside his arm and ended Stuttering and unable to explain why, he was trapped between Jiang Yu and Xia Song like a headless chicken, but Jiang Yu said calmly: "Should I tell Chai Fang that when you just stepped over , stepped on her chair?" Xia Song was horrified: "Don't, don't, I'm a bitch, you two continue to fight with each other, I don't want to mess with that tigress." Then slipped away.Only the odd couple remained.Xu Yanxin cleared her throat and said, "I, I want to help them move the mats, let's go down first." Before taking two steps, he was grabbed by the wrist, and a deep voice came from behind: "I'll accompany you .”

There was a musty smell in the equipment room, Xu Yanxin had nothing to say: "It's a bit boring."

"Uncomfortable?"

He shook his head like a rattle, and said hey hey twice, he's fine, he's healthy, but the person who heard it still touched his forehead worriedly to let go of his worry.Jiang Yu's fingers were so cold that his face, which was not hot, burned again. Jiang Yu walked ahead in the silhouette of a sunny forest, and he followed step by step, without talking, which made him feel lost.

Occasionally, two squabbling boys passed by him, chasing after each other. Before he showed envy, he heard the person in front slowed down and said softly: "I will understand later." I'll play ping-pong with you, so I shouldn't be exercising too much." He looked at Jiang Yu in surprise, but the young man had already adjusted his facial expression and left one step ahead of him.Xu Yanxin is exempted from physical education, but he also needs to test several basic items, such as height and weight, vital capacity, and his best at sitting and bending forward.The first two are nothing to look at. He is a thin man with average height and low lung capacity. The physical education teacher looked at the values ​​and asked him to eat more. Fang Keshi squeezed the flesh on his stomach and said to him: "I even Give it to you."

"Turn them into muscles before giving them to me," he paused, and then said, "The kind of eight-pack abs."

"Hmph, you might as well ask Jiang Yu for it."

He glanced at Jiang Yu, who was so deadly in the sitting position and forward bending test, sighed, and said, "I feel like his abdominal muscles were trained in this way, his face turned red, and he didn't even touch the board." Fang Keshi looked around and said, "I didn't see him blushing."

"The occlusal muscle is trembling, indicating that it is already at its limit."

"Oh, you know a lot."

The physical education teacher blew the whistle and called: "Next, Xu Yanxin—" He trotted over and saw Jiang Yu standing next to the physical education teacher, reporting his grades to the teacher with a dark face. He raised his ears to eavesdrop, but Jiang Yu Seemingly aware of his little thoughts, pinched his neck to make him turn back.He had no choice but to show his unique skills obediently. When he was a child, he hated the idea of ​​being weak, because it seemed to prove that he had lost his masculinity and looked like a girl.But now he has already realized that the sitting position and forward flexion measure the range of joint activity, which should not be the product of stereotypes of men and women.But when he pushed it to 22.6, he still got a lot of exclamations.Chai Fang whispered to him: "Jiangyu is just a fraction of yours." Xu Yanxin patted Jiangyu on the shoulder and said, "Playing basketball also depends on flexibility, practice more."

But his pride didn't last long, he lost badly in table tennis.When he licked his face and asked Jiang Yu for tips, Jiang Yu waved his racket as if holding a grudge, and said, "Practice a lot."

Really narrow-minded, smaller than the eye of a needle.

While slandering, he licked the popsicle Jiang Yu bought, which was strawberry flavored again.

"Do you like eating strawberries?"

Jiang Yu responded vaguely, and said with a smile, "Have you finished scolding in your heart?"

Xu Yanxin leaned back a little, only to hear Jiang Yu continue: "Call me narrow-minded again?"

"How do you know?" he blurted out.

"I can read minds."

He glanced at Jiangyu suspiciously.

The sticky juice of the popsicle was left in his hands, and dripped on the ground to form a small beach. Jiang Yu laughed at him for attracting ants. Xu Yanxin couldn't explain it, so he had to shift his position and said that Jiang Yu didn't eat it right. The popsicle was for licking, not for eating Come to bite.It was rare for Jiang Yu not to refute him, but he just laughed so hard that he didn't have time to consult the meaning of this, and only cared about cleaning up the mess.Jiang Yu only stayed with him for a few minutes, and then went to help pack the equipment. Xia Song trotted two steps, squeezed to his side, and said, "Next week is the school sports meeting, those four-eyed frogs in our class, run for a while." 50 meters is considered a bottom line, you can persuade Jiang Yu, he didn't report anything in the past two years, it is said that he slipped out and fooled around."

"I advise?"

"You two have a good relationship—he's here, don't tell him I said it." Xia Song turned and ran away.Jiang Yu's exposed arms were covered with drops of water. It was probably splashed all over when he washed his hands just now, and even his chest was wet a lot.Jiang Yu flicked his forehead and asked, "What do you think?"

Xu Yanxin relayed Xia Song's words to him, but didn't mention Xia Song. Jiang Yu paused for two seconds and said, "I have something to do during the two days of the sports meeting, so I might not come to school." Participating in the competition, he can cheer from the sidelines. If Jiang Yu doesn't participate in the competition, he will squeeze together in the auditorium and eat melon seeds. He even thought about what snacks to buy, but he didn't expect Jiang Yu to say no.But he still had a little expectation, and asked: "What about the art festival at the closing ceremony night?" Jiang Yu didn't speak, he already understood, and then lost: "That's it."

Jiang Yu walked a little slower, turned his head and said, "If my business over there ends sooner, I'll come over."

Xu Yanxin agreed, but Jiang Yu said suddenly: "Xia Song never washes his hands after going to the toilet."

Xu Yanxin was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Jiangyu in some confusion.Jiang Yu stood under the tree, and he also stopped, maintaining a posture of looking up. The tall figure half-enclosed him, covering him from the sun above his head, and the white shirt on his shoulders was covered with broken shadows of leaves, as if The end of Xia will always rest on Jiang Yu's shoulders.

Jiang Yu hooked his cheek with his curled fingers, and whispered, "So don't let him touch you all the time."
