my kind of person

Ancai's sophomore year of senior high school is scheduled to take the final exam in early July. After the exam, there will be two days off, and then continue to go back to school to make up lessons until the first ten days of August, and then go on summer vacation.

From the moment they entered the review stage, the teacher asked them to take each exam as a mock exam for the college entrance examination. Now that they are students in the third grade of senior high school, they will be the next ones to go to the battlefield.

After Xie Zixin left the library in a hurry last time, Xiao Yi called him again that night.

I couldn't see anyone through the mobile phone, but hearing Xie Zixin's voice was as calm as ever, and asked him what happened, he just said that something happened suddenly at my aunt's house, and he went back to help.

I don't know if Xie Zixin's answer is true or not, but it seems that there will be no other answers. No matter how uneasy Xiao Yi feels, he can only stop asking and tell him that he must ask others for help.

After that until the final exam, Xiao Yi and Xie Zixin basically kept in touch once or twice a week, and most of the time it was Xie Zixin who asked questions about studies.

This time the final exam is not easy, every subject is more difficult than the last exam, Xiao Yi passed the whole exam, especially felt that the math and physics exams were much more difficult, all the students came out dejected, and they didn’t even have the answers Be right.

Xiao Yi was too lazy to go home during the two days off after the exam, so he planned to pass it at school. A while ago, his shoulder injury hadn’t healed yet, and because he was too busy with the final review, he didn’t have time to play basketball. Now his shoulder recovered, and the final exam was over. Time to relax.

Xiao Yi asked Mrs. Zhou, Huang Jingzhou and a few classmates who didn't go home to play together, and they played for almost the whole afternoon.In the middle of the game, Xia Lei, who hadn't seen him for about half a month, came to him and sat on the edge of the basketball court to watch them play.

A few people went to the cafeteria to have dinner together after playing ball, Xia Lei followed, Xiao Yi's friends didn't say anything, although Xiao Yi kept rejecting Xia Lei, as long as the real sister-in-law didn't show up, everyone would really feel sorry for her. To treat Xia Lei as Xiao Yi's girlfriend, in other words, is someone who cannot be chased by others.

On the way to the cafeteria, Xia Lei suddenly took out her mobile phone and showed Xiao Yi a picture, which was the one randomly selected by Xiao Yi from the Internet celebrity pictures sent to him by his roommate Yang Haojie last time.

"Your roommate told me you like this type." Xia Lei asked suspiciously, "Really? You like this type of Internet celebrity?"

Xiao Yi was annoyed by Yang Haojie's many things, and he was just talking casually. Why did he send this to Xia Lei?It's really not a big deal to watch the excitement.

But Xiao Yi was too lazy to explain too much to Xia Lei, so he just followed the words: "Yes."

Xia Lei obviously didn't believe it, she snorted coldly: "If you really like this style, why didn't you add Gao Shasha last time when she said she wanted to add you?"

Xiao Yi asked suspiciously, "Who is Gao Shasha?"

"Look, you don't even remember who she is." Xia Lei said, "It's a girl from Seventeenth Middle School. I don't know where I met you last year. I asked someone she knew in our school to ask for your WeChat. She is The type in the photo, didn’t you give them a chance?”

Hearing what Xia Lei said, Xiao Yi vaguely recalled that there seemed to be such a thing. Last year, he heard that a girl from another school wanted to add him on WeChat, and she refused without thinking. As for the name of the other party, how could he know? impression.

Xiao Yi: "I've never seen her before."

Xia Lei: "Then you mean, if you met her, you would agree to join her?"

Xiao Yi: "I mean, I don't want to find a girlfriend before I graduate."

"I think you actually have someone you like." Unexpectedly, Xia Lei said this resolutely, even with a bit of anger and displeasure in her tone, "It's fine if you have something to say? I am I like you, but it doesn't mean that if you like someone else, you have to die. I said that as long as you don't like someone, I will continue to chase you, but if you have someone you like, then why should I bother to get together? I don't want to be a spare tire."

After Xia Lei's words, not only Xiao Yi was stunned, but also the eyes of the other boys who were traveling with him widened. For a while, no one dared to speak and kept silent.

In the end, it was Zhou Yao who reacted first, seeing the urgency of the situation, and quietly urged the others to leave first, so that Xiao Yi and Xia Lei could talk alone.

"During the second class of self-study last Tuesday night, I heard you calling someone in the small pond behind the teaching building of the high school." Xia Lei said, "I didn't mean to eavesdrop. I was eating snacks there, and I overheard it by chance. You care about the girl on the phone, but I have never heard you talk to a girl so tenderly. "

Xiao Yi was silent, because he was on the phone with Xie Zixin at that time.

During self-study that night, he received a message from Xie Zixin, asking about a math problem.It was Sunday, and because of the previous holiday, I had classes as usual that day.Xie Zixin usually chooses to send messages to Xiao Yi on Sundays when there is no class, just to avoid disturbing his class, but he doesn't know about Xiao Yi's rest this week.

The use of mobile phones is prohibited in the teaching building, and Xiao Yi secretly took them out to read. He could have waited until he returned to the dormitory before replying to Xie Zixin's message, but he went to the small pond behind the teaching building as soon as class was over, called Xie Zixin, and directly Talk to him on the phone.

After finishing the lecture, Xiao Yi had a brief chat with him, nothing more than asking him how his revision was going, what he had for dinner, and asking him to go to bed early.

Xiao Yi looked away: "You think too much, just chat."

"Simple chat?" Xia Lei said, "The content of the chat is simple, but your tone is not simple. You are very gentle, considerate and patient with her. You even cover every aspect of the topic. Could it be that the other party is your relative?"

Xiao Yi's words froze: "Not relatives."

"That's it, Xiao Yi, you know it very well in your heart." Xia Lei said, "After chasing you for so long, you still don't agree, and you don't dare to tell someone you like. What you said is not good before the college entrance examination Falling in love is all nonsense, is it fun to tease me? What’s the matter if you say it? That girl can’t be put on the table, right? Or is it that you are pitiful and I think I can’t accept it? Let me tell you, I’m not as fragile as you think. If that's the case, there's no point in chasing you anymore, you can just talk about your love and see who will do better in the exam in the future."

After Xia Lei finished speaking, the corners of her eyes were also a little red. Although she was strong, it was hard to avoid being sad to let her give up her most innocent love.But she didn't cry in front of Xiao Yi in the end, she turned around resolutely and strode away.

Looking at the back of Xia Lei leaving, Xiao Yi's heart was completely occupied by what she said just now. He didn't even think about it at all. In fact, he should breathe a sigh of relief. After all, Xia Lei, who has been chasing him for a long time, is finally willing to give up. , if it was changed to two months ago, he had to celebrate for the first time.

After Xiao Yi had dinner, he didn't have to study at night for two days, so he went back to the dormitory directly.Seeing that he was back, Zhou Yao quickly dragged him to the table and sat down, and asked curiously: "What did Xia Lei tell you just now? Tell me quickly."

Xiao Yi: "...She said she would never chase me again."

"Ah?" Zhou Yao was stunned, "Then she said that you have someone you like is true? I haven't heard you say it! Xiao Yi, you are not mean!"

Not to mention Zhou Yao, even Xiao Yi himself didn't figure it out.

Zhou Yao: "Tell the truth, who did you call that day? No wonder I saw you secretly looking at your phone that night during self-study. You have never done this before."

Xiao Yi didn't speak, just put on the earphones, grabbed the horizontal bar of the balcony door frame, and pulled it a dozen times. He felt the soreness of his arms and back muscles, but he still couldn't dispel the slowly burning anxiety in his heart.

Xiao Yi let go of his hands and squatted on the ground panting until he couldn't pull it anymore. Zhou Yao stood behind him with his arms folded, and said, "Brother, there's really something wrong with you like this."

Xiao Yi turned his head to look at him, his eyes gradually cast a bit of sharp scrutiny, which made Zhou Yao take a step back involuntarily, and said tensely, "Why are you staring at me?"

Xiao Yi stood up from the ground and stretched out his arms to hug Zhou You. Zhou You was startled, his whole body shook, and his face showed great surprise.

Xiao Yi silently felt that Zhou Yu was his friend, hugging like this, let alone feeling, he didn't feel any disturbance in his heart, and the faint smell of sweat on Zhou Yu's body not long after playing basketball even made him feel a little nervous. very disgusted.

Zhou Yao thought that Xiao Yi was in a bad mood, and out of his buddy's thoughtfulness, he was about to reach out and hug Xiao Yi back to comfort him, but Xiao Yi suddenly let go of his hand and pushed him away slightly: "Go take a shower, it smells like sweat."

Zhou Yao: "...you are sick!"

Zhou Yao cursed and went to take a shower. Xiao Yi dug out a can of Coke from his drawer, and he snapped the buckle open. Unfortunately, the weather has been hot recently, and the can of Coke had been stuffed in the drawer for an unknown amount of time. It's lukewarm, and it doesn't taste refreshing at all, just like his mood at this moment.

While drinking Coke, he scrolled through Weibo boredly. Last time, the good-looking bot he casually followed posted a new Weibo. The title was the school grass that everyone secretly took in those years. Boys in sample middle school uniforms.

Suddenly, Xiao Yi's hand stopped, and he saw a figure he was very familiar with in these photos.

Xie Zixin was wearing a red and white school uniform, jeans, and canvas shoes. He was sitting on the steps of the playground under the sun, not looking at the camera, his gaze fell on the book in his hand, and he was quietly lowering his eyes.

The photo was probably taken secretly, but the soft sunlight fits perfectly with the figure of the young man, it looks like a silhouette walking out of a delicate oil painting.The photo is in Figure 5, and the location is the C position of the nine pictures, which can be seen at a glance.

Most of these photos were submitted anonymously by netizens. Xiao Yi took a closer look at the photo and recognized that the reference book on Xie Zixin’s lap seemed to be one of the ones he recommended to him, which meant that this photo must be recent. I don't know when Xie Zixin was photographed when he went to school.

After looking at it for a long time, Xiao Yi accidentally saved the photo.

He flipped through the Weibo comments, and most of them were admiring his looks. One comment that read "The boy in Figure 5 is so amazing, no wonder he's C" even got hundreds of likes and was topped by hot comments.

Xiao Yi originally thought it was a bit strange to describe boys as beautiful, but after thinking about it, this word is quite suitable for Xie Zixin, and there is nothing wrong with it.

Xiao Yi knew that because of his appearance, Xie Zixin was said by many people to be motherly and unmanly, and he might be bullied because of this when he was a child. Maybe he himself didn't like this description.

He looks fragile but very strong, like a patched puppet made of sharp needles and soft cotton wool. If someone can penetrate the sharp thorns all over his body, he will find a delicate and painful softness.There are probably very few people in this world who can penetrate his shell, such as his close relatives, such as... himself.

Xie Zixin is worthy of praise, and even more worthy of hugging. Xiao Yi stared at his silent face in the photo, and his heart sank, as if he was sitting beside him in that afternoon, and he was also quietly looking at his side face, like It is looking at a jewel.
