"No one else calls me that..."

I didn't know that the double-word address could sound so sweet, and I was a little dizzy for a while.I felt itchy again, and subconsciously wanted to hear Tangling call me that again, but I didn't realize that I was staring at him in a daze.

Maybe it was because my gaze was too hot, I saw Tang Ling frowned slightly.

Gradually, he regained his usual indifference and calmness, explaining: "In the first video, your girlfriend called it that."

At this moment, no matter how confused I am, I will never forget the fact that I am gay, otherwise why would I rush to recruit this strange person in front of me every day.

Oh, that's my little aunt.

At first she thought my name was Yu Chu, but my mother voted against it, so she had to use the nickname "Chuchu", but our family is full of wood, and no one except her uses nicknames.

I stopped talking and didn't explain much, I just apologized for the neurotic gaffe just now without sincerity.

Tang Ling walked forward and said "it's okay" lightly.

I followed, put my hand into his sweater pocket, fumbled and took out a handful of candies.

"I don't like this, is there anything else?" I dialed carefully, "Why is it all this?"

Tangling took the taffy candies, and with a cold face, she took out a Buerjia from her pocket and exchanged it for me.

At that moment, I was thinking that he might be a Doraemon bionic man.

I bit my stick and followed behind his buttocks: "Chen Xing said your teeth are all decayed."

"None of your business."

"Don't smoke, I heard you cough several times in the middle of the night."

"Have you finished?"

I was silent for a long time before opening my mouth again: "Tang Ling, do you really look down on me?"

"If you don't take the initiative and don't refuse, you must treat everyone who rushes forward as a fool." I became more and more depressed, "...but you clearly said that I am different."

When I woke up this morning, I actually did some psychological work for a while. I thought Tang Ling would avoid suspicion in silence, or even continue the smug flirting, but there was nothing, nothing, our relationship is still In this way, there is no further step, not even a step back.

Obviously he is still very indifferent in his heart, but he still occasionally gives disgusting tenderness, just like a passer-by who claims to be kind is pitying a stray dog. Will it make the dog come here and wait dryly every day?

Tang Ling slowly turned his head to look at me, his gaze was three-pointed and seven-pointed puzzled, he asked me why I was pestering him so much now, did I really like him so much.

I suddenly collapsed, didn't answer anything, just walked up to him silently, thinking that's it, maybe I can't catch up with him, I will always be so excited, and I'm not afraid to be as boring as before and think about it every day up.

At the end of the sketching on the weekend, Chen Xing reflected on himself for a long time, and kept asking me for advice and suggestions on the return bus, but I was a little absent-minded, so I didn't really answer him.

Maybe it was because my temperature difference between the two trips was a bit big. Chen Xing realized that maybe the topic was boring, so he asked me to hold out my hand.

I spread my palms towards him, only to see some clues about him, and then shook his head mysteriously.

This expression may have been learned from the faces of charlatans in period dramas.

"Truth, your career line is forked, your life line is shallow, and your marriage line is almost non-existent."

I think it's a bit funny: "It's not quite accurate to say that."

Chen Xing tentatively said again: "Have you ever been sick when you were young? I think there are quite a few."

I nodded. When I was young, I was often sick. After a few years of silence, I was hacked by someone. Thinking about it this way, I have indeed paid a lot of money to the hospital since I was a child.

The teachers sitting next to him were also interested, and came over and said, "Our boss is so amazing? Why is the truth so ill-fated? Do you have a girlfriend? How about I introduce my sister to you, who teaches children to play the violin?" Yes, you have to have a common language."

I glanced at Tang Ling's back with the earphones plugged in, and replied, "Thank you sister, but I'm gay."

I think many people should have heard what I said, and the whole car fell into a moment of silence.

Although Baima is still a relatively traditional place, fortunately, almost all the people sitting in this car are engaged in art, and the degree of tolerance is much higher than that of ordinary islanders. It was only after a short embarrassment that the topic was diverted.

Someone said to Chen Xing: "It doesn't look like a feudal superstition, how can you know how to read palms?"

Chen Xing sighed: "My mother believes in it. She always recites all kinds of superstitions to us. She even said that she believes in Buddhism without even reading Buddhist scriptures."

Then my mother should be similar, except that she is a Christian.

Probably also the kind of paranoid half-bait who over-interprets "life is full of sins", otherwise why would he always look at me with disgust and helplessness?

The car stopped at Sanlin Square. Chen Xing originally asked all the teachers to have dinner, but before Lao Xu said that something happened at home and he had to go back to the other side, so he asked me to go back to take over the shift. Now I have to say goodbye to them.

Walking along the path by the river to the Blue Lotus, under the street lights, I saw a black shadow that was shortening behind me, and I turned my head to meet Pu Wei's sight.

"……It is you."

I have to say, I really felt a little dizzy just now, and I don't know if Tangling felt the same way when he found out that I was following him.

Pu Wei faltered for a long time before choking out "Come on, I don't think there is anything wrong". I really didn't understand what it meant at the time, and I didn't realize it until I walked to the door of Blue Lotus. He might be encouraging me to do this. gay freak.

I buried my head on the phone and said thank you to Pu Wei, but I bumped into an iron-like back. I looked up while cursing, and saw the pimples on Zhang Yong's face that were both puberty and sexual desire.

Zhang Yong probably didn't meet me for a while, so he ran to Lanlianhua excitedly to find me to fry golden flowers.

I also said what's the point of two people flirting back and forth, but he really didn't care about drinking, and laughed wildly at me: "Guess who I met last night?"

I think of the poster on the wall of his canteen: "Fan Bingbing?"

"That's the type my dad likes!" He said in a hurry, "It's Chen Wumian! I met her in a bar last night and got drunk, and no one cared about it. I can't just leave her there like this, it's too dangerous."

"so……?"

"What are you thinking! Am I that kind of person! I can't get a house as a minor, so I had to carry her back to my house..."

"Aren't your parents at home?" Isn't this a suicidal behavior, so it won't be exposed to go to the bar and bring a woman back.

Zhang Yong nodded, and rolled up his sleeves towards me, revealing a bruised and mottled arm: "Of course I was beaten."

Can you still laugh when you are beaten like this?Maybe it was a strong laugh.

"When I was beaten on my knees at the door of the bedroom, I told them that Chen Wumian was my girlfriend, and I couldn't just leave her where she was. I was just lying to my parents, but Chen Wumian told me this morning that she heard it Say I'm a good person, if you don't mind, she can try with me."

I think this world is too magical, and only ghosts believe that people who like Tang Ling like Zhang Yong.

"Students should treat each other with admiration for three days, Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu, when you threw me into the free country, did you ever think that one day I would be able to sleep with Chen Wumian?"

It's good, I think Zhang Yong may be too pure compared to other secular men who like Chen Wumian, so I didn't say anything more in the end.

Zhang Yong's phone rang, and after seeing the call, he gave me a wicked wink, and then answered loudly: "Hello? Is it Mianmian?"

"Yeah, I'm in the bookstore opposite the store, looking for friends, hey, you should have met once, the kid who went to the free country with me, yes, it's called Yu Zhen."

I silently opened the Spider Solitaire on the computer, but Zhang Yong told me that Chen Wumian wanted to see him, and my mouse almost flew out in fright.

When it was approaching the end of get off work in the evening, Chen Wumian, who hadn't seen him for a long time, walked into Blue Lotus with chicken feet beer.When she saw me, she smiled sweetly: "Mianmian still remembers the truth."

I broke out in a cold sweat.

I didn't know what her purpose was, but she asked Zhang Yong to pull down the shutter door to turn off the lights, and then found the remote control with ease and ordered an American family movie.

"...Sister Chen, why are you so familiar?"

"I often came here when I was in high school, and Xu An let me work here when I ran away from home."

I exchanged a somewhat subtle glance with her, only seeing myself in her glassy eyes.

None of the three people watched the movie seriously, Zhang Yongqin bragged about the legend of truancy he wrote in Sanlin Middle School, Chen Wumian drank carelessly, and I concentrated on eating chicken feet.

I thought Zhang Yong was noisy at first, but after he fell asleep on the ground with Chen Wumian's calf in his arms, the whole Blue Lotus returned to the embarrassment. "How is Tang Ling?"

"It's good...it's good." I replied, "It's the same as before."

"Impossible, how could it be the same as before." Chen Wumian turned to look at me, "Have you seen anyone he got close to recently?"

I didn't understand, but I heard her say again: "He used to not treat me so badly, but now he doesn't even answer my phone calls. Did he hate me when he heard that I drove other people's wives to death? Why did you tell me?" What did he say?"

This is the first time I feel that Chen Wumian's spirit is a little abnormal, because I remember clearly that she asked me to tell Tang Ling.

"Maybe Teacher Tang didn't think about how to face you."

Chen Wumian interrupted me: "What nonsense are you talking about? Do you know Tangling? I am the only one who knows him best in Baimali. He must hate me."

I was speechless, too lazy to speak again.

As if trying to prove something, Chen Wumian said urgently: "He doesn't need a mouthwash cup, because he said that someone peed into his cup when he was in prison. He doesn't drive anymore, because the traffic accident made him He went to prison. He used to be in Qingmei Sculpture. When he was a freshman, he bought a second-hand battery. I sat in the back and rode for more than an hour to Shichahai. The sun was very strong and there were many people, so I took him that day. hand."

She looked over with red eyes: "Has he told others about these things? No, no one here knows his past."

It was a bit difficult for me to respond at first, she was indeed talking about something completely unfamiliar to me about Tang Ling.

As if mustering up the courage for half a lifetime, Chen Wumian actually said earnestly: "Can you call him for me? I want to meet him. Don't say I am looking for him, otherwise he will definitely not come."

After saying this sentence, Chen Wumian burst into tears, his sad face made me feel the struggle after arrogance.
