Can I like you

The boarding students dragged their suitcases and ran towards the gate in a joyous manner.Xiao Peng stood at the gate of the school, helping the security department to send the boarding students out of the school. His popularity was very strong. Almost all the students passed by him. goodbye"!

Fortunately, Xiao Peng's ability to recognize people is not bad, so he can distinguish the students in his class from among the many students, and watch them go out of the school one by one, or be picked up by their parents, or get on the car for the return journey.

The sun was setting and the sky was getting dark.

The noisy campus returned to silence. After the security department confirmed that there were no students in the school, Teacher Xiao walked back to the office.

Most of the teachers lived in the city, and the head teachers of all classes returned home after seeing off the students. The teaching building was completely silent from the classrooms to the offices.

As soon as Xiao Peng entered the door, he saw Xiong Weining sitting at the desk playing with his mobile phone. He was a little surprised: "What are you doing here? You don't go home after the holiday?"

Xiong Weining didn't raise his head: "How can we go back so far?"

Mr. Xiong, a native of Beijing, when Xiao Peng first found out about him, he thought that he might be out of his mind, so he ran from Beijing to a small place like Lincheng, but Xiong Weining also thought that he was out of his mind, so he came to Lincheng from Shanghai.

Xiao Peng went to his desk to pack his things: "Then go back to the apartment! It's getting dark and what are you doing in the office, don't say you have to work overtime on your own initiative!"

Mr. Xiong put down his cell phone, raised his eyebrows and smiled all over his face, Xiao Peng was so startled by his wretched expression that he couldn't help frowning: "What is your expression?"

Teacher Xiong came over and asked enthusiastically, "Are there any arrangements for the holiday?"

Xiao Peng pushed him away coldly: "What arrangement? If there is an arrangement when you sleep, then I have it."

Teacher Xiong cut off with disgust: "I knew you had no arrangements! Do you want to go out and have fun during the holiday?"

Xiao Peng thought he was hallucinating: "You asked me to go out to play together? Is the sun coming out from the west?"

Xiong Weining smiled and said, "The camping group is short of someone, you're fine anyway, let's go together?"

Xiao Peng looked suspicious: "Camping? Since when did you fall in love with camping?"

Xiong Weining avoided his piercing gaze, grabbed the green radish leaves on the desk and pretended to be deep.

Xiao Peng suddenly understood: "Mr. Xi is going camping?"

Xiong Weining smiled slightly, Xiao Peng was a little surprised: "Yes! During this period of time, the relationship between you and Mr. Xi has improved by leaps and bounds!"

Xiong Weining immediately became proud: "Of course! Teacher Xi and I can be called good friends now!"

Xiao Peng gave a thumbs up: "Mr. Xiong is mighty!"

"Low-key, low-key!" Xiong Weining was extremely modest.

"How did you get in touch with Teacher Xi?" Xiao Peng asked, "The work of the Academic Affairs Office and the Youth League Committee should have little overlap, right?"

Xiong Weining was about to talk to him about this, when he heard his question, he immediately slapped his thigh and chatted.

Xiong Weining and Xi Juanlin chatted mainly because of the art festival. The school youth league committee is in charge of the campus art festival. Of course, it is necessary to ask music teachers for help. There are not many music teachers in the school, and Xiong Weining happens to be in the academic affairs office, so let things take their course It fell on him.

"What is this called! This is called the right time, place and people!" The old god Xiong Weining was there, "God destined me to have a fate with Mr. Xi! That's why I arranged the matter on my head!"

Seeing that he was so excited, Xiao Peng couldn't interrupt him, so he could only bring the topic to the camping issue: "Then what's the matter with the camping? Even if you two chatted, the relationship wouldn't develop so quickly, would it?"

"That's why I said God's blessing!" Xiong Weining was triumphant, "When we were having a meeting in the Youth League Committee's office, Teacher Xi happened to answer the phone, saying that a young couple in the camping group during the October [-]st holiday that we had agreed to find out they were pregnant and canceled their participation. There is a group, if there are two people free, the group cannot be formed and the activity has to be cancelled!"

"The goddess is in trouble, of course I have no hesitation to solve it!" Mr. Xiong said with a serious expression, "So I said I will participate and fill a spot for them!"

Mr. Xiao clapped for him, and Mr. Xiong waved his hands modestly: "Low-key, low-key! Basic operation!"

Teacher Xiao sincerely praised: "If you do this to this extent, you are also a model among dog lickers!"

Xiong Weining didn't care at all: "Whatever you say, I'll treat you as the jealousy of a single dog!"

Xiao Peng really didn't want to talk to him, so he took his mobile phone away from him and called.

After a long waiting tone, a mechanical female voice said, "I'm sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unanswered. Please use other methods to contact me. Sorry..."

Xiao Peng frowned and hung up the phone, feeling a little nervous, Li Shuhe didn't answer the phone?This kid, could it be that his heart is so glassy that he doesn't even dare to answer his phone? !

Xiong Weining shouted from behind: "You really don't want to go with us? Then what are you doing at home during the holidays?"

Xiao Peng was inexplicably irritated and grimaced at him: "What am I going to do, let's see how you lick the goddess? If you two can really succeed, then don't I want to eat dog food? I won't go."

"Don't pull it down!" Xiong Weining groaned, "Then you take good care of the house! Don't miss your brother too much if you stay alone in the vacant room!"

Xiao Peng glared at him with a sneer, and Xiong Weining immediately remembered that this person was a violent person, so he immediately smiled apologetically: "That's it, that's it! I...I'm going to prepare something now, and I'll make it early tomorrow morning." With the group, we will live in the city tonight! Go to bed and lock the door yourself!"

Teacher Xiao watched with cold eyes, and Teacher Xiong blew out the door like a gust of wind, for fear that if he was a step too late, he would be held down by Lao Xiao in the office and violently beat.

During the holidays, there was no one in the teacher’s apartment. The dormitory auntie was sitting at the door, and when she saw Xiao Peng approaching, she greeted her with a smile: “Mr. Xiao! Auntie is going home from vacation! Be careful when you are alone in the apartment.” Oh! Don’t let everyone know about it?”

Apparently, Hai Jiajie still had a psychological shadow over Auntie Dorm's previous visit. After getting Xiao Peng's assurance, he told him several times before he packed his things and went home.

Now in the whole apartment, only Mr. Xiao is left.

Teacher's Apartment 403.

Lincheng's October is not cool, probably after a rain, the temperature will drop suddenly, Xiao Peng took a shower, lay down on the sofa to relax.

The air conditioner in the corner has been replaced with a new one. At that time, Xiong Weining made a report and went up to take all the responsibilities, but before the school’s handling opinions came down, Hai Jiajie’s new air conditioner had already been installed. I had to admire the money Human efficiency is high!

Normally, Xiong Weining would be in his room tinkering with his musical instruments, always noisy, Xiao Peng closed the door and hid in his room, but couldn't escape the noise.

But today, the silence in the room made people feel uneasy.

It seems that the more lonely the night, the more prone to emotional problems. From the beginning of school, Xiao Peng forced himself to be busy, forcing himself to forget those bad things.

However, it is impossible for people to pretend to be strong forever. Those things that have been suppressed will slowly ferment. When they find an opportunity, they may be just a star, just a ray of wind.

Even just a piece of moonlight can make the suppressed emotions in your heart collapse in an instant, and the mountains and seas roar to crush you.

Feelings of loneliness, fear, frustration, anxiety... These things that once tortured Xiao Peng are now entangled around him again, like a gangrene strangling his throat, dragging him into a dark world. In the corner, he was going to be strangled to death...

Xiao Peng knew that something was wrong with him, he kept admonishing himself, but the situation didn't get any better.

Maybe it's time for him to take some medicine.

The ringtone of the mobile phone broke the despairing silence, and also interrupted Xiao Peng's concomitant breathing. He grabbed the mobile phone in a panic and pressed the call button.

When the phone was connected, the young man called out cautiously: "Mr. Xiao..."

Xiao Peng's eyes were slightly hot, he tried his best to suppress his emotions, and replied softly: "Yes."

The voice on the other end of the phone was still a little timid: "Mr. Xiao, I... just got off the car at that time, so I didn't receive your call. I'm sorry."

Xiao Peng shook his head subconsciously, only to realize that the other party couldn't see him, he tried his best to make himself sound as usual: "It's okay."

"Mr. Xiao, are you calling to find me something?" Li Shuhe asked tentatively.

At this moment, Xiao Peng really wanted someone to chat with, but obviously Li Shuhe was not a good match, Xiao Peng tried hard to cover up his abnormality and wanted to end the topic as soon as possible: "No, it's nothing."

The atmosphere fell into awkward silence, Xiao Peng secretly scolded himself for being sick and didn't even look at who was on the other side, he was about to hang up the phone when Li Shuhe said softly: "Mr. Xiao, don't you want to talk to me... "

Shocked, Xiao Peng retorted subconsciously: "No!"

The young voice suddenly jumped up: "Really? That's great! I'm afraid you won't bother me anymore!"

The gloomy mood was torn apart, and Xiao Peng seemed to see Li Shuhe appearing in the dark clouds, with his head on his ears, his big tail wagging behind him, grinning like a big golden retriever and smiling naively.

"After the open class, you changed offices. I wanted to call you but I was afraid of delaying your work. You don't know! How happy I was to see you call me!" Li Shuhe said to himself, "I When I called you back, you hummed, I really thought you were angry, I really thought you were annoying me! I... I was so panicked!"

The young man chattered non-stop, and the corners of Xiao Peng's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

It's really strange, no matter how this person appears, no matter in the daytime when the sun is shining or in the dark and lonely night, there will always be a ray of light in front of his eyes.

Now this ray of light forcefully tore away the haze that gushed out of his heart, and pushed those back to his back again, leaving only the smile as bright as the warm sun in the memory and the joyful voice in his ears.

Li Shuhe talked nonsense for a long time, until finally he couldn't hear Xiao Peng's response, and then tentatively asked: "Mr. Xiao? Are you listening?"

"Well, I'm listening." Xiao Peng replied softly.

Li Shuhe's laughter came from next to his ears: "Hey, I thought I was talking too much and you ran away."

Xiao Peng smiled softly: "It's quite talkative, but I haven't run away yet."

"Teacher Xiao..."

Just as Xiao Peng wanted to call him back, he heard a female voice with a Shanghai accent shouting from the other end of the phone: "Little tree!"

Then I heard Li Shuhe responding from a distance: "Oh!"

Xiao Peng was silent for a while and asked him: "Your mother?"

"No, no, it's my aunt." Li Shuhe quickly explained.

Xiao Peng paused and asked: "Isn't your hometown from Lincheng? Why is your aunt from Shanghai?"

Li Shuhe's tone was a bit awkward: "Ah... yes..."

This question is obviously a bit private, Xiao Peng felt a little rude and quickly changed the subject: "What are your plans for Eleven? Didn't you go out with your friends?"

Li Shuhe's tone suddenly became aggrieved: "My friends are all in Shanghai, and my old classmates in Lincheng have been gone for a long time. Of course, no one will take me to play."

have to!This topic made people even more wronged, Xiao Peng was speechless for a while.

But Li Shuhe suddenly regained his spirits: "Anyway, Mr. Xiao, you are alone, how about we go out to play?"

This idea is not bad, he was just about to ask if there is any place to recommend, but he remembered the conversation between him and Xiong Weining before, he and Li Shuhe are different after all, it is better to be more careful to avoid suspicion.

"Forget it." Xiao Peng smiled and refused, "I'm tired from the busy work this month, so take advantage of the holiday to rest and rest, and you should accompany your aunt when she comes from Shanghai."

Li Shuhe was still muttering, and the female voice in the receiver yelled in Mandarin with a Shanghai accent: "Little tree! Hurry up and sleep!"

Xiao Peng looked out of the window and said to Li Shuhe with a smile: "It's getting late and I'm going to rest, you should go to bed early too! Don't let my aunt worry."

Li Shuhe had no choice but to stop talking, and said softly to Xiao Peng: "Then, good night, Teacher Xiao!"

"good night!"

The moonlight outside the window was still bright, and the room was still quiet and quiet. Xiao Peng nestled on the sofa and fell asleep. In his dream, he returned to his home and found a big golden retriever downstairs. It grinned as if smiling, and looked at him wagging tail.Xiao Peng leaned over and rubbed its furry head, suddenly the big golden retriever stood up, called him twice, and led him into the morning light rising from the entrance of the alley.
