The meal was tasteless for Xiao Yi, and he was not in the mood to chat, and Xie Zixin was even more silent. Fortunately, Xiao Yuqi is a chatterbox, with him chattering non-stop, the whole meal was not dull.

After eating, Xie Zixin and Xiao Yuqi packed up the lunch box, Xiao Yi remembered that he still had a basin of clothes soaked in the water, and planned to wash it, but he walked to the balcony, but saw the empty sink.

Xiao Yi asked suspiciously, "Where are the clothes I soaked here?"

"I washed it for you and hung it to dry." Xie Zixin said, "Your shoulders are inconvenient to wash."

Xiao Yi raised his eyes in surprise, and after a long time, his eyes gradually sank: "Why are you washing my clothes? Who told you to do it?"

Why did he do these things for him without saying a word?Xiao Yi just didn't want to see Xie Zixin subconsciously put himself in such a low posture in front of him. Even if he was really worried about his shoulder injury, he should have asked him in advance if he would help him do the laundry instead of Actively doing the work like a servant who waits on him, as if it were his job.

Whenever Xie Zixin asked, Xiao Yi would not be angry.

Xie Zixin didn't seem to expect Xiao Yi to be angry, and was a little taken aback.Seeing Xiao Yi's stern expression, he was obviously flustered, but he didn't know the specific reason, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I touched your things casually..."

"It's not this problem!" Xiao Yi was indeed a little annoyed. He couldn't hold back his emotions for a while, and his tone became more serious. "I said a long time ago that it was not your fault that I was injured. There is no need to cook soup and wash clothes at the same time. I It's just a shoulder injury, but it's not disabled, you might as well go back and read two more pages if you have this spare time. You can treat me like a normal friend, can't you?"

Xiao Yuqi stayed aside, looking at Xiao Yi in surprise, as if he didn't expect his brother to say such a thing.

Xie Zixin just remained silent for a while, and more and more certain emotions gradually piled up between his brows. He finally lowered his head and cleaned up the thermos bucket on the table, put on his hat and mask, turned and left the dormitory.

"Hey, Brother Xie!" Xiao Yuqi shouted anxiously, and then looked back at Xiao Yi who was tense, "Brother, why are you talking about that?"

Xiao Yi just froze and didn't speak.

Xiao Yuqi gritted his teeth, opened the door and chased Xie Zixin out, Xie Zixin walked so fast somehow, Xiao Yuqi disappeared as soon as he ran out, Xiao Yuqi ran all the way to the first floor of the dormitory building, only to see Xie Zixin's hurried back.

Xiao Yuqi: "Thank you brother!"

Xie Zixin turned his head, the brim of his hat was pulled down, and with the mask on, Xiao Yuqi couldn't see his expression clearly for a while, but he just intuitively felt that Xie Zixin was depressed.

"Brother Xie, my brother doesn't usually talk like this." Xiao Yuqi didn't know what to say, so he could only try his best to explain for Xiao Yi, "Maybe it's because he didn't do well in the weekly exam this time, I guess... Anyway, you Don't take it to heart."

Xie Zixin was silent for a long time, her voice was slightly hoarse: "Yes."

Xiao Yuqi: "Brother Xie, thank you very much today, I will talk to my brother properly when I go back!"

Xie Zixin: "I'll return the clothes to you another day."

"Oh...then, thank you brother bye."

Xie Zixin didn't stay any longer, and left the dormitory building directly.

Xiao Yuqi had no choice but to go back to Xiao Yi's dormitory. He opened the door and saw Xiao Yi sitting alone at the table. He was puzzled and said, "Brother, why did you say that just now? What's there to get angry about? Brother Xie The good intentions are cooking soup for you and washing clothes for you, brother, you may not be able to find a girlfriend in the future who will treat you so well! You say that, brother Xie feels so sad..."

The unintentional word "girlfriend" in Xiao Yuqi's words made Xiao Yi's heart skip a beat. He raised his eyes and gave Xiao Yuqi a look, which made Xiao Yuqi a little scared, so he dared to mutter in a low voice: "If you want to be me, someone else I'm not sure how happy you are for being so kind to me..."

Of course Xiao Yuqi will be happy, because Xie Zixin is just a friend he has just met for a short time, he can accept it with peace of mind and without any grudges, between friends, just smile and pass.

Similarly, if the person who does these things is replaced by Zhou Yao, Huang Jingzhou, or any of Xiao Yi's familiar friends, Xiao Yi will not be unhappy, he will only accept it generously, and even open a few words with the other party joke.

However, Xie Zixin was different.

Xiao Yi couldn't accept his kindness with peace of mind, even if he regarded it as a repayment, he couldn't do it, because he couldn't reciprocate.What he can give Xie Zixin in return, Xie Zixin doesn't want, and what Xie Zixin wants in return, he can't give.

Xiao Yi said slowly: "Go back to the classroom, it's time for self-study at night."

Xiao Yuqi gave a dry "oh", tidied up briefly and went out.Xiao Yi washed his hands by the sink. He looked up and looked at his clothes neatly hung on the clothes rail. He could still smell the faint scent of laundry detergent just after washing.

Xiao Yi supported the sink, thinking with lingering fears, fortunately he didn't put his underwear in, and with Xie Zixin's temperament, maybe he would wash it with him, that would be really embarrassing.

Although what he said just now was a bit heavy, Xiao Yi did not regret it. Xie Zixin's most urgent task is to plan for himself, and the next three years are very important to the future, so there is no need to do these redundant things.

Xiao Yuqi urged him by the door: "Brother, can you go?"

Xiao Yi: "What's the rush, here we come."

That night, Xiao Yi had a strange dream. He ran into Xie Zixin on the way to school. He wanted to go up and say hello to him. No matter how you chase him, you can only keep the same distance from him.

After waking up, Xiao Yi remembered this dream clearly, and felt particularly depressed.

Xiao Yi's birthday is on June [-]th, which happens to be the day after the end of the college entrance examination in their province. Xiao Yuqi has always thought that his birthday date is very good, especially at this time next year, he can celebrate his birthday and the end of the college entrance examination together.

After entering June, Xiao Yi's class began to hang up the countdown to the college entrance examination.Ancai is one of the college entrance examination centers in their province. They have already started preparing the cordon and examinee guide signs a week in advance. The school will be on holiday in the afternoon of June [-]th until June [-]th.

Xiao Yi returned home during the three-day holiday, and the teacher reminded them that they don't need to take the initiative to do new questions for this year's college entrance examination after returning home. The teacher will arrange mock exams after returning to school.

After each subject exam that Xiao Yi needs to take is over, Xiao Yi will immediately go to Weibo to check the real-time reactions of this year's candidates.

Mathematics and physics are said to be difficult every year, and I have not seen that the topics are not very reference value. Other subjects are divided into half and half.

On June [-]th, everyone returned to school on vacation and began to make up the lessons of the previous few days.

Walking on the campus, you can see high school seniors carrying big and small bags for vacation everywhere. There are more than a dozen huge woven bags and large cardboard boxes specially placed in front of the teaching building to collect the books thrown away by high school seniors.

They walked with their parents and friends, some with relaxed smiles on their faces, some tense with no expression on their faces, and some leaned on their parents' shoulders, or hugged and cried with their classmates.

Xiao Yi walked through all kinds of people, and in another year, he will be one of them.

The life committee members of their class recorded the birthdays of every student in the class, and those who had birthdays on that day would be written on the back corner of the blackboard, and the students would sing happy birthday.

Today is Xiao Yi's 17th birthday. Not only did he receive happy birthday songs from his classmates, but when he returned to the classroom after dinner that day, he also saw two exquisitely packaged gifts in the drawer of his desk.

One of them was a men's bracelet with a greeting card inside, and it was generously stated that it was a gift from Xia Lei.

The other one is a water glass with a piece of light blue letter paper attached, with three lines of words written on it with a handsome blue-black signature pen, probably wishing him a bright future and a bright future. "Girl", I don't know if it was sent by a girl who was just in love but didn't dare to express her heart generously.

Xiao Yi definitely wouldn't wear the bracelet, and it's impossible to return it. Xia Lei gave him a denim jacket for his birthday last year. Xiao Yi sent someone to send it back to her classroom seat, but it was sent back the next day. up.

As for the water glass, I don't know who sent it, so I can only put it away first.

Zhou Yao joked: "Sure, the school grass is the school grass."

Another classmate also said: "Hey, Xiao Yi, let me tell you, why don't you wear this bracelet and hold this cup to run and exercise tomorrow, so that others can see your achievements."

Xiao Yi didn't like the word "achievement" in the mouth of his classmates. He directly stuffed things into his schoolbag, planning to take them back to the dormitory, and just put them in a corner in the cabinet.

On the way back to the dormitory after school at night, Xiao Yi somehow thought of Xie Zixin, and the two of them didn't contact each other after that day, and naturally they didn't contact each other today.

It stands to reason that Xie Zixin should not know his birthday, and it is expected that he did not contact him today, but Xiao Yi always felt a little unhappy in his heart, and he couldn't help thinking that Xie Zixin might know, but because of what happened last time, he was angry I don't want to talk to him.

Before going to bed at night, Xiao Yi habitually turned on his phone and swiped Weibo, especially after the college entrance examination these two days, the hot searches on Weibo were almost all news related to the college entrance examination.

Just when Xiao Yi was about to put away his phone and go to sleep, a WeChat message popped up. It was actually from Xie Zixin. The message only had four simple words, happy birthday.

Xiao Yi himself didn't expect that at that moment, the tension in his heart that he didn't even notice disappeared without a trace. Xie Zixin knew his birthday, and took the initiative to say happy birthday to him.

Although it was getting late, Xiao Yi immediately replied.

Xiao Yi: Thank you

Xiao Yi: How do you know that today is my birthday?

Xie Zixin: Aunt Xiao told me yesterday

Because Xiao Yi had to go back to school on his birthday, their family had an early dinner yesterday, and invited some familiar relatives and friends, including the aunt's family.

Xiao Wanning knew about the special situation of Xie Zixin's family, so she asked Xiao Yi yesterday if she wanted to invite Xie Zixin to play with her, but Xiao Yi refused without even thinking about it. Xie Zixin is a little withdrawn, and may not be suitable for such an occasion.

I thought my aunt would just let it go, but unexpectedly, she went to ask Xie Zixin herself.

Xiao Yi: Oh, so

Xiao Yi: Actually, you could come over to play yesterday

Xie Zixin: It’s okay

Xie Zixin: Good night

Xiao Yi wanted to say something else, but Xie Zixin choked back the words he had already typed, obviously not wanting to continue the chat.

Xiao Yi couldn't help it either, it was indeed too late now, and if he continued to chat and interrupted his rest, he could only delete each word, and also said good night.
