Rebirth Delay

After the love letter case, Xu Ze rarely smiled in school.The handsome guy who looks good when he smiles suddenly should go to the Bingshan School, and Du Yunjie has been squeezed by the girls both openly and secretly.

The boys were afraid that Xu Ze wouldn't even stay at school for his homework, so they deliberately made things difficult for Du Yunjie in front of Xu Ze. Several times of siege made Du Yunjie almost cry as a boy.

On the contrary, Zhao Mulin didn't know Xu Ze at first, but now she can say a few words.When we met across the street, the little girl also greeted her generously, the infatuation in her eyes was much less.

Her frankness is much more likable than Du Yunjie's.

Du Yunjie was also depressed and regretful, and wanted to apologize to Xu Ze several times, but Xu Ze, who was able to nod to him before, completely obliterated him now, as if he was nothing.

Deeper than depression and regret, it seems to be a kind of sadness, a kind of sadness with tightness in the chest and difficulty in breathing.

After lunch, Xu Ze went to the office to move the test papers. Du Yunjie looked at his back and couldn't help it anymore, "Xu Ze!"

As if Xu Ze didn't hear it, his steps didn't stop at all.

Du Yunjie gritted his teeth secretly, ran up to Xu Ze, stretched out his arms, and stopped Xu Ze, "Xu Ze!"

Xu Ze looked at him indifferently.

"Xu Ze, the love letter last time...is my fault! Can I apologize?" Du Yunjie widened his eyes, eagerly waiting for Xu Ze to forgive.

Shaking his head, Xu Ze said, "I'm not angry."

Du Yunjie didn't seem to expect Xu Ze to answer like this, he squeezed his fist, and his face was a little anxious, "But...but you haven't laughed recently! Isn't it angry? What is it?!"

Xu Ze tilted his head and looked at him.

Du Yunjie felt that he was sick, but he thought that tilting his head was cute!Moreover, being watched by him, I couldn't help but feel a little hot.

"Don't be angry! It was my fault! I will never do this again! You want to beat and scold me, but come, I won't fight back! As long as you..." Du Yunjie lowered his blood-red face, and didn't think about it for a long time. Say the second half of the sentence.

Quiet.

When he looked up again, Xu Ze was smiling as he wished.The smile was still the same as usual, the corners of the mouth were slightly raised, the eyebrows were stretched, there was a smile and warmth in the eyes, and the facial features of the whole person became vivid.

Du Yunjie stared blankly.

The second half of the sentence lingered in my stomach.As long as you smile like before.

Xu Ze missed him sideways, his body was still like a green onion, straight and flexible, and he walked towards the office without haste.

It seemed that the episode just now did not cause any disturbance to him.

Xu Ze, what's the difference?

Du Yunjie said to himself.

He was not like this before. Although he was cold towards others, when he smiled, his pupils clearly reflected the other person's face, which made people feel kind and comfortable.But now, he always seems to be remembering something, he seems careless when he smiles, and he seems to be imagining something through the other person when he looks at him.

If there is a line between Xu Ze and them, then it used to be an invisible line at most, but now it is real, a line that penetrates the back of the paper.A line draws a wall, and he frames himself in it, preventing others from entering.

Oh, no, Du Yunjie shook his head, there were already people inside.

Xu Ze came back with a stack of test papers, but Du Yunjie was still standing there.

When they were about to pass by each other, a cautious voice suddenly rang in Xu Ze's ear, "Xu Ze, if I tell you to beat me up, will you recognize me as a friend?"

Xu Ze stopped, turned around and looked at him, "Isn't it good to just be an ordinary classmate?"

Du Yunjie shook his head, silently stepped forward to grab the paper in his hand, and walked towards the class.

Xu Ze was silent.

When school was about to leave, Xu Ze passed by the reading column at the back.The familiar face on the newspaper made his eyes widen, and he couldn't help pulling the newspaper down.

Under the huge title "Genius Painting Boy Won Highly Praise by Contemporary Calligrapher and Painter Lingshi", there is a two-inch small image, on which there is only a boy's face, but the blank eyes are so familiar!

Looking at the name in the article, it was really Song Lin!

Song Lin was featured on Xinhai Daily!

Xu Ze leaned on the reading bar and couldn't wait to read the whole article through.In the end, I watched Song Lin's photos over and over again, and my childhood memories came flooding in like a tide.

Sun Tong and the others are all in middle school, and their studies are very intense, and the letter that was originally sent once a month has not come for a long time.Although he knew that Song Lin's painting was sent to the city by the teacher to participate in the competition, he never thought that Song Lin would be included in the newspaper!He just happened to see it!

"Lingshi, a famous contemporary calligrapher and painter, said that Song Lin's paintings embody a kind of postmodernism with a childlike interest. The child seems to be always walking and observing aimlessly. In fact, in his eyes, all seeing Everything I see is alive and special, even two leaves each have their own veins. In Song Lin's paintings, these veins are arms or eyes..."

A strong pride appeared on Xu Ze's face.

Song Lin is really different, as he imagined in childhood, he is a superman, a real superman.

The newspaper was rubbed and rubbed in the palm of his hand, and finally he simply took it off.

"Xu Ze?" Du Yunjie walked up to him at some point.

The expression on Xu Ze's face that could almost be called joy was so rare. Before Du Yunjie could speak, Xu Ze strode towards the office.

Cao Yan said that the newspaper is the public property of the class, and no one is allowed to take it away without permission.

But!Xu Ze was anxious, but this one must be taken away!

The memories with Song Lin, with my brother, and now this surprise, naturally I have to share it with my brother.

After hearing Xu Ze's words, Cao Yan was a little surprised.After carefully looking at the stupid boy in the newspaper, he met Xu Ze's eyes and was almost blinded by the light in them.Without thinking too much, Cao Yan approved, watching Xu Ze quickly leave the office with his schoolbag on his back.

On the bus, Xu Ze kept pinching the newspaper and read it many times tirelessly.

In the evening, when Shi Yan came back, Xu Ze excitedly handed him the newspaper to read.

The delay is naturally also surprising.

"Want to see him?" Shi Yan asked.

It was written in the newspaper that this young genius will stay in Xinhai in the near future to participate in the art exhibition in Lingshi a few days later, and he probably wants to make an advertisement by the way. The address of the art exhibition is clear and clear, and it is in the city.

"Brother, can you?" Xu Ze's eyes lit up.

Shi Yan patted the back of his head, "Of course."

The mulberry and Sophora japonica of that year carry a very good memory.

However, Shi Yan didn't expect that such a silly child would really reach the sky in one step.

Newspapers in Xinhai City, the eyes of the whole country are here.From now on, Song Lin's fate will no longer be affected by his pair of top relatives.Of course, this assumes everything goes well.

I don't know if I can see it smoothly, Shi Yan thought, if he can't see it, just take a look from a distance and satisfy Xu Ze's wish.

After all, catching up is not a business.

In Xu Ze's anticipation, Saturday came.Schools are closed, factories are closed.

Shi Yan took Xu Ze to the art exhibition center in the city early.Lingshi has a great reputation, and the exhibition day brought together a large number of celebrities from all walks of life and calligraphy and painting lovers.

Shi Yan had never been to such a place in his previous life.

Tickets are booked in advance by phone, 60 yuan a ticket.Shi Yan and Xu Ze, two country bumpkins, looked left and right as soon as they entered the hall. They didn't look at the wall like everyone else, but looked behind, hoping that Song Lin would come out sooner.

At 10:30, Song Lin followed Lingshi out.Song Lin, who changed into a small cheongsam, showed a different cuteness and cuteness, and his eyes were out of focus.He always holds a paintbrush and a drawing book in his hand, and draws incomprehensible pictures on the drawing book intermittently.

On the one hand, in order to attract the public's attention, and on the other hand, to save Lingshi's face, the reporters who came to interview took a lot of photos of Song Lin who was not in the state, and then focused on gathering around Lingshi for interviews.

Song Lin was taken to the lounge by the staff.

After going in and out of the restroom, Song Lin couldn't find his way back, and stood in the corridor stupidly, staring at a yellow slogan on the wall that said "do not touch".

Shi Yan and Xu Ze kept walking inside and saw him immediately.

Xu Ze quickly shouted, "Song Lin!"

Song Lin turned his head and stared blankly at Xu Ze for a while, "Xu Ze."

He is seven or eight centimeters shorter than Xu Ze, and his voice is still the same as when he was a child, soft and slow.

It was hard to tell from Song Lin's face whether he was surprised, but he called out again, "Xu Ze."

Xu Ze laughed, "Song Lin."

The two chatted shoulder to shoulder like brothers.

It was mostly Xu Ze who was talking, Song Linmu was stupid, and occasionally looked back at Xu Ze to show that he was still listening.

Such a conversation lasted for nearly half an hour strangely.

Shi Yan got a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg when he talked about Xu Ze's excitement, but Shi Yan was also very happy, because Xu Ze didn't seem to have smiled so happily for a long time.

The staff found them out, and Song Lin said they were classmates, so he didn't investigate why Shi Yan and Xu Ze entered the rest area.Before leaving, Song Lin took out his pocket and handed Xu Ze a piece of paper.

There was no handwriting on the paper, only yellow sap.In the middle, a dead Sophora japonica branch lay there.

Xu Ze watched him leave with the staff, holding the piece of paper in his hand, lost in thought.

"Xu Ze?" Shi Yan squeezed his hand.

Xu Ze raised his head, "Brother?"

"Let's go out."

Xu Ze nodded, and returned along the original road with Shi Yan.

He kept holding the Sophora japonica branch on the paper, and didn't understand why Song Lin gave him such a thing.

Is he homesick?
