In summer like autumn

Mo Jingyi was watching everyone's play, and would tell the actors from time to time: "Be more unrestrained! You can act like this here! That's right! What you want is the effect of splashing dog blood!"

According to Director Mo, the "Thunderstorm" that the Drama Club plans to perform this year is a drama of the era of family ethics, which everyone will love to watch.At that time, in addition to peers, many people from society will also be invited to participate in the cultural festival. This show will definitely be well received and well received.It was submitted to the teaching office for review, but it happened to be an article that was selected for the Chinese textbook, and they were not easy to reject it.

The Lu Xiaohai mentioned by Gu Wendong is actually the B corner of Lu Dahai in this play.All the characters in the drama club have B corners, and this "Thunderstorm" is no exception.Firstly, there are many members in the club, which ensures that as many students as possible can participate in club activities. Second, if there is an emergency in corner A on the day of the performance, there are also people who can temporarily cover it, so as not to open the skylight.

Xia Yiqun's character is cold and indifferent, participating in this performance was purely an accident.On a certain Friday, when school was over, Mo Jingyi followed her tablemate Gu Zhihang and walked out of school with a heavy heart, thinking about the casting of the new drama.She heard Gu Zhihang yelling in front of her, and couldn't help raising her head, just in time to see him running towards the two tall boys at the school gate like a bird out of the cage.One of them is Gu Wendong, and the other is Xia Yiqun.

Mo Jingyi looked at Xia Yiqun, her eyes lit up: Xia Yiqun had limited interest in sports, but was dragged by Gu Wendong to play basketball all day long, and he managed to develop a good physique, stronger than Gu Wendong saw.Director Mo only took one look and felt that he was more suitable to play Lu Dahai than Gu Zhihang.

Gu Zhihang asked her: "Why am I not suitable? Didn't you let me act because you said I was tall last time? Why did you change your mind again!"

"What's the use of being tall? You're so thin, you wish your arms were thinner than mine. How do you look like a coal miner?" Mo Jingyi said. "Besides, I didn't say I won't let you act. Are you going to be the B role?"

"But it's appropriate for Brother Yiqun to act? Have you ever seen such a handsome coal miner?" Gu Zhihang was still not convinced.

Mo Jingyi smiled, and tapped Gu Zhihang's head with the paper tube in her hand: "No, no, no, young man, you still don't believe me when I say you have long hair but short knowledge. How did you say it in Chinese class? Lu Dahai is not only a coal miner, but also a symbol of the rebellious spirit of the working class. Shouldn’t a handsome man be chosen to play such a worker’s representative?”

Gu Zhihang was very angry, but he had nothing to say to Mo Jingyi, the representative of the Chinese class, so he had no choice but to resist: "Brother Yiqun is busy, so I don't have time to play a drama!"

"Then go ask him out of the mountain, if you don't agree once, and next time, please keep asking until he agrees." Mo Jingyi said, "Three visits to the thatched cottage can invite Zhuge Liang, I don't believe that I can't invite him."

Gu Zhihang has never seen Mo Jingyi messing around like this: "Three visits to the thatched cottage? Come on, it's useless for you to pay thirty visits. Brother Yiqun is most afraid of trouble, so he definitely won't agree."

"Who said I have to invite it myself?" Mo Jingyi patted Comrade Gu Zhihang's shoulder with a smirk on her face, "You are Liu Bei, and I am the Zhang Fei who cut his sword and blocked his way. Never let him escape on the spot."

Mo Jingyi's plot really succeeded.According to her script, she originally planned to use Gu Zhihang to understand her affection and reason, but Gu Zhihang just said that he wanted to ask Xia Yiqun for a favor, Xia Yiqun saw his embarrassed expression, and didn't even think about anything After asking, he agreed immediately.

So Xia Yiqun played Lu Dahai, and the original Gu Zhihang retreated to the second line and became the B corner.Since then, every club event, Xia Yiqun can be seen wearing a dark blue costume, followed by a handsome Gu Zhihang, like a puppy.Gu Zhihang called "Brother Yiqun" in a clear voice, sat next to him holding the script, and helped Xia Yiqun to silent his lines so that he could catch up with the progress of the whole troupe's rehearsal as soon as possible.When rehearsing a new play, people in the drama club have a customary habit of using the characters in the play to call each other nicknames.This time in "Thunderstorm", even Gu Zhihang who played the B role won a nickname, and was affectionately called "Lu Xiaohai" by everyone.

Gu Wendong, who played Zhou Ping, couldn't stand it anymore, and pointed at the tip of Gu Zhihang's nose: "Go and be Xia Yiqun's younger brother! I don't want you anymore!"

"You just can't bear it." Gu Zhihang said with a smile, "Brother, I'll buy you a drink!"

"Don't be so good here, you little follower! It's Xia Yiqun who just said that you want to drink water, and you think of me!" Gu Wendong waved his fist, intending to catch his younger brother and teach him a lesson, but Gu Zhihang jumped out in a flash The classroom is as flexible as a small loach.

"Little bastard! I want a Coke! The original flavor, don't buy that vanilla flavor!" When Gu Wendong chased him out, Gu Zhihang had already run away, and he didn't know if he heard it.

"I took a sip of that vanilla flavor last time, and I felt uncomfortable for several days. It's just too much!" Gu Wendong muttered as he walked back, "It's not a little girl, why drink vanilla flavor!"

Xia Yiqun took off his costume, walked over, and gave Gu Wendong a symbolic punch: "Xiao Hang likes to drink, so let him go. You have a good time, don't always say that he is like a little girl. When the time comes, he will hear it, and then let him go." It's time to get mad at you."

"I know, I was teasing him too." Gu Wendong also punched Xia Yiqun back, and nodded with a smile.

This summer, Gu Zhihang went to the United States to study high school.

The Gu family's parents had long been moved by their relatives, and they had the idea of ​​sending their two sons abroad. Half a year ago, they had already asked someone to check the information and go through the formalities.But Gu Wendong said that he was about to be in his third year of high school, and he might not be able to adjust when he suddenly went to the United States, so he gave up.He really encouraged Gu Zhihang to go, but when Gu Zhihang saw that his brother wouldn't go, he refused at first, but he suddenly changed his mind near September.

Accompanied by his mother, Gu Zhihang left in a hurry.It happened so suddenly that even his class teacher didn't know that the kid had gone abroad to study until after school started, let alone Xia Yiqun.

Among Gu Zhihang's closest people, apart from his family, probably Xia Yiqun is the only one.Their friendship dates back to childhood.At that time, Gu Zhihang was fair and lovely, with big watery eyes, and his mother Wang Aimei always liked to dress him up like a doll, wearing brightly colored clothes, and his hair was longer than ordinary boys.

One afternoon, Gu Zhihang had a small conflict with the naughtiest boy in the compound.The boy didn't take it seriously, so he became narrow-minded, called Gu Zhihang "little girl", and encouraged other children to call him too.With the elder brother not around, Gu Zhihang was weak, so he had to stand there with red eyes like a rabbit, more like a girl.

Xia Yiqun came back from the cram school, happened to pass by, and found that Gu's second child was surrounded by groups, as if he was being bullied, so he rushed over without saying a word, guarded Gu Zhihang behind him, and yelled loudly to disperse the group of brats.After this battle, Gu Zhihang regarded this brother's good friend as a great hero, and his status in his heart was higher than that of his own brother Gu Wendong.

From then on, whenever Xia Yiqun came to play at home, Gu Zhihang would follow Xia Yiqun in and out.For a while, he asked Brother Yiqun if he wanted to drink fruit juice, and for a while he asked Brother Yiqun if he wanted to eat snacks, and he had to tell his brother Yiqun one by one about the sesame and mung bean things that happened in school.

Xia Yiqun would seriously respond to every word Gu Zhihang said.Gu Wendong has never been so patient. Seeing his own brother clinging to Xia Yiqun tightly, he was a little upset, so he had to give him the nickname "follower".

In the blink of an eye, the little follower grew up, and he didn't even tell Xia Yiqun about such an important decision to go abroad, but chose to leave without saying goodbye.

Xia Yiqun was not surprised when Gu Wendong told him the news, because the reason why Gu Zhihang left the country in a hurry was probably because of Xia Yiqun.

At the end of the summer vacation, Xia Yiqun went to another city with a group of students from the same school to participate in the Olympiad trials.This time he participated in a physics competition, and the questions were fairly easy, so he handed in the papers early after finishing.After leaving the examination room, Xia Yiqun didn't wander around, but waited for the school bus according to the teacher's request.

After standing by the small square notified in advance for half an hour, Xia Yiqun didn't see the school bus at all, and he even wondered if he had made a mistake.

Contrary to the weather forecast, Jiangnan City was unexpectedly hot this day.After being exposed to the sun for a long time, Xia Yiqun felt his cheeks were hot and it was difficult to breathe.

Just as he was about to take off his school uniform jacket, his head started to feel dizzy.Xia Yiqun became anxious and fell down involuntarily, but instead of falling to the ground, someone caught him instead.The man seemed to be saying something to himself, the voice was melodious, with a pleasant breath, and the cool touch from his forehead made Xia Yiqun feel at ease.

In a daze, he felt that someone had moved him into the car, and Xia Yiqun had no memory of what happened afterwards.

On the way back to Jiangbei City on the school bus, Gu Zhihang held Xia Yiqun's hand tightly, turning his head from time to time, worried that Xia Yiqun would not sleep soundly on his shoulder.

Xia Yiqun woke up slowly from the turbulence, his vision became much clearer.

Ah, it's Xiaohang.

Xia Yiqun thought like this, but did not move, still leaning on Gu Zhihang's shoulder, sniffing the subtle fragrance on his collar, feeling the temperature from his slightly thin hands, a sudden A little sad: his parents travel around the world all the year round, and they are not by his side every time he gets sick. Fortunately, he doesn't have any serious illnesses, so if he persists or takes some medicine indiscriminately, it will pass.

Thinking about the care and care that his parents gave him all these years, it was not even as good as the boy next door who was by his side when he was suffering from heat stroke.

The sun was setting outside the car, and the inside of the car was dark, Gu Zhihang turned his head once again, his eyes were still watery, and his slightly long hair brushed Xia Yiqun's bridge of nose.

There was an itchy and unbearable touch from the tip of Gu Zhihang's hair, which touched Xia Yiqun's heart. His left hand suddenly held Gu Zhihang's hand back, and his right hand raised, caressing Gu Zhihang's cheek.

Xia Yiqun used his warm fingertips to trace the shape of the auricle of the person in front of him, slid it down, lingered on the earlobe for a while, and then used his knuckle fingers to run through his soft hair.

Raising his head slightly, Xia Yiqun kissed the corner of Gu Zhihang's mouth.He just touched it lightly and left, but Gu Zhihang froze there completely, looking at him with disbelief.

There are still teachers and other classmates in the car, and it is dusk, no one will pay attention to what happened in this corner.Gu Zhihang's expression had long been turbulent, and his eye circles turned red, just like the look he had when he was bullied in the compound.Xia Yiqun thought he was going to cry in a second, but he didn't cry, but silently pulled his hand out of Xia Yiqun's hand.

After a long silence, he only asked:

"Brother Yiqun, do you also think I'm a little girl?"

Thinking about it afterwards, Xia Yiqun felt that he was probably dazed by the sun.But he also felt that he was very sober, clearly aware that he liked Gu Zhihang, and he didn't regard him as a girl.The second Gu Zhihang looked back, his eyes were full of concern, and it fell in Xia Yiqun's eyes, and even more in Xia Yiqun's heart, which made him feel at ease, made him obsessed, and made him fall in love with the person in front of him called Gu in an instant. sailing boy.

However, Xia Yiqun chose a wrong time to express his heart in a wrong way.This unexpected situation caught the young Gu Zhihang by surprise. He didn't know how to face Brother Yiqun after school started, and he didn't dare to mention it to his elder brother and parents.He had no choice but to flee to the United States in a panic.

This summer, based on just one small incident, Xia Yiqun believed that he had found the one he loves.But when he found the man, he pushed him away.Since then, there has never been a kid following behind him and calling him "Brother Yiqun", and there has never been a handsome boy sitting on the table in the activity room, dangling his slender legs, willingly acting as "Lu Xiaohai" ", to help him recite his lines.

Even if they met again later, Gu Zhihang never took the initiative to get close to Xia Yiqun, but just stood there smiling politely.
