Sludge to the Mountain Ghost

, just imitate him following the movement of Shunmao, and made him raise his head slightly, Xu Rui asked sullenly, "What did you say", and then buried his head back in the crest of his neck.

"I said... I believe you will handle it well."

Xu Rui smiled wryly, and changed his forehead to leaning on Lin Pai's shoulder. He stared at the wet ground, feeling a little dazed, "I'm really sorry for wasting your ardent expectations of me."

"No, you've done a good job."

Xu Rui didn't reply, he just thought he was comforting himself.

The rain finally stopped, and Lin Pai leaned against the wall to let Xu Rui lean on him. He looked at the empty experimental field in front of him, his eyes were a little blurred after relaxing, and there were birds flying over dead branches nearby, flapping their wings and passing through the low sky. , shaking off a piece of vitality.

"How long are we going to... cough, cough, stay here?"

The moment Xu Rui opened his mouth, he felt that his throat was stuck together, and his voice was a little slurred because of his hoarseness.

"Look at you..." Lin Pai pinched the back of his neck, looked down at the scratch on his right cheek, and gently wiped off a little blood that flowed to the side with his thumb, "But your face is not as good as it is now. Disinfection, if it becomes inflamed, it will leave a scar, such a big piece."

"Lin Pai..." Xu Rui felt that his shoulders were tense, and he couldn't find a comfortable place when he moved left and right, so he burrowed back into his neck, and even his voice became muffled.

"what?"

"you're too skinny."

"what?"

"I want you to give me medicine."

"That's not what you just said."

"That's it, you heard it wrong."

"Obviously not."

"I gave you medicine once at the beginning of school..."

The more Xu Rui talked, the more he became a hooligan. He pressed Lin Pai's waist with both palms, and hit Lin Pai's side neck with his warm snort. Lin Pai grabbed the back of his head and pushed him back, "I Didn't say no, you get up first."

Xu Rui stood up according to his strength. He bent down and approached Lin Pai's neck, and wiped it carefully with the back of his hand.

Before Lin Pai had time to express his confusion, Xu Rui took the lead in explaining, "There is water vapor."

On the way back, someone saw two maverick high school students, and couldn't help but take a second look. The back of one school uniform coat was dirty a lot, and the other was not wearing a coat. The entire summer school uniform was dirty. Xi, in the bleak autumn wind, red, red, green and green are intertwined into a spring scene.

28. Chapter 28

At noon, the sun peeked out from behind the clouds, the French windows leading to the balcony were half opened, the light shone obliquely on the floor, and the whole room looked warm.

Lin Pai put on a pair of Xu Rui's short sleeves. He looked down and saw that the length was not bad except for a little air leakage.

He finally wiped two handfuls of hair that were no longer dripping, hung the towel back on the rack next to the bathroom wall, and walked out of the bathroom with a change of dirty clothes.

In the room, Xu Rui looked solemn, sitting cross-legged in front of a floor-to-ceiling mirror, carefully looking at his right face in the mirror, iodine disinfectant had already been applied, which could barely cover the redness and swelling of the skin, and he almost wiped the whole face The face is all pasted up.

"Where did you get the mirror? I remember not having one just now." Lin Pai stood at the door of the bathroom, looking at him inexplicably.

Xu Rui didn't look back, still frowning, and replied while looking in the mirror, "It was moved from He Hui's room."

Lin Pai was speechless, and threw the dirty clothes over his head, "You said it yourself, I handed over my dirty clothes to you. I don't know how dirty the wall behind the laboratory building is. I just saw it. , the back of the coat is black."

Although Xu Rui was still worried about the injury on the right side of his face, he reacted very quickly. He raised his hand and caught the thrown dirty clothes, and he put the clothes on the ground next to him, "Well, you still have a set, don't you? "

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I'll bring it to school for you on Monday."

Lin Pai sighed silently, he walked behind Xu Rui, and for the first time felt how clumsy he was in comforting others.

He bowed his waist and put his hands on Xu Rui's left and right shoulders, looking at him in the mirror, Zhang Yang seemed to hide his sharpness on his face, Lin Pai was speechless for a while.

Xu Rui seemed to be aware of Lin Pai's emotions, and raised his hand to pat the back of his hand twice, "Seeing my face, are you too handsome to speak?"

Lin Pai chuckled, stood up straight and kicked his feet, "Hurry up and take a shower and change your clothes, don't you want to eat?"

"I have wounds that cannot touch water."

"You have scratches on your face, even if you hold the shower head in your mouth, you won't be able to touch the water."

"I also have cuts on the palms of my hands."

"You scratched the skin on the palm of your hand." Lin Pai ruthlessly tore him apart, kicked him a few more times, Xu Rui nodded graciously, stood up, took clean clothes and walked into the bathroom.

As soon as the bathroom door was closed, he opened it again and said to Lin Pai, "I just peeled the oranges on the table. Take a taste, they are so sweet."

Lin Pai walked to the desk, and there was indeed an orange on the desk, and a paper towel was carefully placed on the floor, but the orange peel was still there and had not been peeled off.

He squinted his eyes and took a closer look, and found that there seemed to be cracks on the orange peel. Lin Pai pulled up the top stem of the orange with two fingers, and the whole orange peel was pulled up round and round, revealing the peeling skin. The good oranges are missing two petals, obviously Xu Rui ate them.

The sound of water in the bathroom rang and turned off, and Xu Rui came out within a few minutes, "Lin Pai, I'm done washing, what's for lunch? Lin Pai?"

"Ah?" Lin Pai turned around from the desk and saw Xu Rui putting on clothes at the bathroom door. He guessed that Xu Rui's abdominal muscles should be obvious, but he didn't wear glasses today, so he couldn't see clearly.

"I asked you what to eat?" Xu Rui walked quickly behind Lin Pai, only to realize that he was learning to peel oranges by himself. One orange had already been killed, and now the one in his hand seemed to be about to die, "That's me. You can’t learn a unique skill.”

"Just eat rice rolls, there seems to be one next to your house."

"That one doesn't taste good. I know there's a good one next to the school."

Xu Rui turned around and moved the mirror back to He Hui's room. Lin Pai followed behind him, and when he saw him put down the mirror, he still looked at the right side of his face reluctantly.

"Don't take photos, the scar will heal in a few days." Lin Pai took out his black peaked cap from his backpack, put it on Xu Rui's head firmly, and looked at him in the mirror with him, " that's it."

Xu Rui looked around and felt quite satisfied, so in the next two weeks, people in the school saw Xu Rui wearing a black peaked cap all the time.

From autumn to winter, although the temperature in Heshan Town in winter is not more than ten degrees below zero, the wet and cold weather below zero is still majestic.

Regarding the sports meeting, the final total points of class five only got No.2, but Li Chanjuan was still very satisfied.

She picked two consecutive Chinese lessons to show a movie in the class, and used the bonus she got to buy snacks for the whole class. Everyone was very happy.

Since then, no one has ever seen Xu Rui and Fu Yanye walking together, and they have to line up with a few people apart for training together occasionally.

Xu Rui didn't hear any gossip, or maybe it was just that the gossip didn't dare to reach him.

Lin Pai is still the same as before, attending classes at school during the day and working part-time at Dong Wenwen's Internet cafe at night.

The only difference is that Xu Rui and him almost became conjoined twins, and they stayed together almost all day long except for training time.

Sometimes, Dong Wenwen would go to the Internet cafe to study with them at night, and he happened to be able to teach Xu Rui the knowledge points of the first year of high school. Lin Pai felt a lot more relaxed, but he never understood "If I become very strange" this assumption.

Zhou Ning didn't find anything unusual about Xu Rui except that he was rarely able to make an appointment with him when he was playing basketball.

Many of the great joys and pains of the moment have become trivial matters over time.

-

On the night before the New Year's Day holiday, Xu Rui said goodbye to Lin Pai at the intersection, and it was past eleven o'clock on the road in front of the house.

Usually there was no one at home at this time, but today he saw the lights on the first floor a few houses away.

Xu Rui kept his movements as light as possible, and opened the door vigilantly.As soon as the door opened, He Hui seemed to be taken aback. She turned around, covered her heart and looked at Xu Rui, and breathed a long sigh of relief silently.

Neither of them could say when the last time the two met at this time.

Xu Rui looked down, and there was an open suitcase on the floor in the middle of the room. It seemed that it had just been sorted in half, and some sundries were still piled up on the table next to it and on the ground next to the suitcase.

"Are you going out?" Xu Rui walked into the room and closed the door.

He Hui turned back, bent down and continued to stuff things one by one into the suitcase, "I signed up for a tour group and went out with them for a few days on New Year's Day."

She tidied up very quickly, rather than tidying up, it would be better to say that she threw all those things into it.She closed the suitcase and began tugging at the zipper of the overloaded suitcase.

Xu Rui stepped forward to help her hold the suitcase, and with a crisp sound, He Hui closed the suitcase.

"Why did you come back so late today?" He Hui dragged her suitcase to the door and asked him suddenly.

Xu Rui stood on a few steps and turned his head back in a daze, "I came back after finishing my homework with my classmates outside."

"Oh..." It took He Hui a while to recover. Although she didn't care much about this son, she never thought that her son would have something to do with the word "homework".

She unlatched the door and put the suitcase
