Flowers bloom under the low wall

Two men and one woman light candles in the hotel.

The small fiery red flame immediately lit up, forming a small halo around it, instantly turning the faces of the three people red in the darkness.

Bai Ling twitched the corner of her mouth: "Little Sang...you, do you want to wash your face?"

"No need." Zhi Sang shook his face.

Damn, why is this candle so smoky?

My eyes hurt several times.

Zhi Sang blinked: "Hurry up and make a wish, eat the cake and go to bed early, and you have to catch the early bus back to school tomorrow morning."

"oh oh."

Bai Ling glanced at Bai Yixiao's red and swollen side face, not daring to think about it anymore, so she swallowed guiltily, and then closed her eyes.

Zhi Sang looked at the quiet Bai Ling, and suddenly felt a little uneasy: "Don't make the wish of 'don't want to fall in love', because everyone has to get married and have babies, so promise something else."

Bai Ling opened his eyes and said blankly, "Then what?"

Bai Yixiao impatiently shielded the candle from the wind: "Hurry up."

Bai Ling stuck out her tongue and closed her eyes again.

The surroundings became quiet, only the conversation between Bai Yixiao and Zhisang could be heard, which was far away and uncertain.

Zhi Sang: "Sing."

Bai Yixiao: "..."

"Happy Birthday……"

Zhi Sang: "Can you be a little ups and downs? Your senior year of high school is in the corpse class?"

"To shut up."

"..."

The sound gradually weakened until there was no sound at all.

Finally, in the empty darkness, only the chorus of two boys remained, one at noon, one in English, one lively and the other cold.

"Happy birthday to you~"

"Happy birthday to you—"

A faint warmth came out of the candle flame, roasting the girl's face.

Bai Ling remembered that just after the military training, a senior from a radio station invited her to join the radio station and took her to the recording studio to collect voice samples.

I didn't know what to say at the time, so my senior asked her to sing a song.

The radio station often plays that song, called "There Is Someone". The senior sister said that she has someone in her heart, and it has been about two years.

Every manuscript of hers was read to that person, and every time she played this song, it was played to that person. This is a secret that the whole school does not know.

Girls always like to talk about these things when they are together, and the senior sister has light in her eyes when she talks about the people she likes.

The senior sister said that the person was not talkative, a little cold, but very gentle.

Bai Ling asked her what kind of girl that man likes.

The senior sister said, it seems to have beautiful eyes, fair skin, gentle and virtuous, etc. Bai Ling said excitedly, isn't that very similar to you?

The senior sister said that her eyes are very pale and unattractive, so she likes to put sequins on her eyes, and she can't help but blink when she sees someone she likes.

That person likes white flowers, so she always wears jasmine-flavored perfume, but she didn't dare to get close to that person for two years, only dared to watch his back silently not far away, and then wrote him into the lyrics.

Later, that senior sister became friends with Bai Ling, and Bai Ling knew that her name was Bai Yixiao.

…………

Bai Ling remembered that line of the lyrics, and took it as a wish, and silently made it in her heart.

"I hope that in the future, there will be candlelight on every birthday, and your face will be blurred by the candlelight."

As soon as she finished her promise, she blew out the candle in one breath.

The room was plunged into darkness.

Soon the light was turned on by Bai Yixiao, the elder brother who didn't know that he had become a birthday wish turned his face away and said perfunctorily, "Hurry up and finish sleeping."

Zhi Sang handed the gift box to Bai Ling, slightly tilted his chin to Bai Yixiao, and said with his eyes, "It's from your brother".

Bai Yixiao snapped Zhisang's jaw back.

Bai Ling: "..."

Bai Yixiao began to look at the mobile phone expressionlessly, one arm was bent, and he was leaning on the chair like a boneless one, as if he hadn't closed his eyes for three days and three nights and was about to enter a semi-dead sleep.

Zhisang was speechless.

Bai Ling opened the box, and inside was a shiny white watch with a very plain shape, which matched a simple and clean student like Bai Ling.

A white water chestnut is delicately carved into the dial of the watch.

All three were silent.

Bai Yixiao didn't seem to know what embarrassment meant, he took out the knife and started cutting the cake solemnly.

The first piece was given to Bai Ling, and Bai Ling took it stiffly.

The second piece is given to Zhisang, who rubs his nose and takes it.

Finally, he cut a piece and put it in front of him silently.

"Eat." He said a word calmly.

The three began to eat the cake quietly.

Time passed little by little, and the three finally lay on the chairs like dead fish, with the last piece of cake left on the table.

"Little Sang...you eat..."

"...Bai Yixiao..."

"roll……"

Bai Ling stood up suddenly, lightly smeared cream on her fingers, and looked under the light.

Zhi Sang thought she was going to eat it, but Bai Ling suddenly wiped the cream on Zhi Sang's nose, then stood there solemnly holding back a laugh.

In the end, I couldn't help but leaned on the chair and laughed.

Zhi Sang was taken aback for a moment, then stood up immediately.

"You are naked double standards! I even bought you a river lamp! No, your brother has to wipe it too!"

As Zhisang said, he pressed Bai Yixiao on the chair, and held up a paw of cream, ready to stamp Bai Yixiao's face.

"Tsk," Bai Yixiao frowned to block it, and said coldly, "Get lost."

"Can you say that again?"

Zhi Sang also cooled down, clenched his fists, and condescendingly pressed Bai Yixiao with an irritable face.

The light is very bright, Bai Yixiao is pressed on the chair, from this angle, Zhi Sang can see the gray at the root of Bai Yixiao's eyelashes.

The light brown pupils dance with bright spots under the light, and there are ancient growth rings in the deep places.

The three people in the room were all silent.

Bai Yixiao looked at Zhisang's fist, opened his eyes slightly, then turned his face silently, and closed his eyes.

Zhi Thorn paused.

Paralysis, what's the matter with your look of letting me beat you?

Bai Yixiao closed his eyes and frowned, and said impatiently, "Hurry up and wipe it off."

"oh oh."

Zhi Sang dazedly wiped Bai Yixiao's entire face until not a single inch remained.

Bai Yixiao: "..."

After wiping, both of them sat up.

Seeing a pasty face with no facial features, Bai Ling couldn't help laughing again, and this time he laughed until tears came from the chair.

Bai Yixiao silently spread a handful of cream, staring at the cream on his hands for a few seconds.

All three were silent again.

The next second, Bai Yixiao suddenly pressed Zhisang's ankle, then pulled it over and wiped it hard.

"Damn it, Dad's face is going to be rubbed off by you, the mummies in the pyramid next door haven't enjoyed this kind of operation..."

The cream on Bai Yixiao's mouth fell onto Zhisang's face, his lips trembled: "Don't swear."

Zhi Sang: "..."

The three of them messed around with this piece of cake that was not enough to fit between the teeth for a long time, and they were exhausted after packing up.

"It's already one o'clock, go to bed early," Zhi Sang turned around and instructed, "I will wait for you downstairs with your brother tomorrow."

"Goodbye, little Sang!" Bai Ling retracted her head.

Zhi Sang's mind finally cleared up a bit, and he walked into the next room. Bai Yixiao had already finished his shower and was leaning on the sofa next to him, looking at his phone.

The room was dark.

Zhi Sang opened the curtains, the night sky outside was as clear as water, and the room was filled with dark blue light.

The person leaning on the sofa was disheveled, and his whole body was dark in the shadows. If it weren't for the tiredness and indifference between his eyebrows and eyes, he would have looked like a naked provocation.

Bai Yixiao only dressed properly in front of Bai Ling.

Zhisang glanced speechlessly, then silently began to undress.

Bai Yixiao's eyes moved away from the phone, fell on Zhi Sang, and met Zhi Sang's eyes.

It was as if there was an invisible needle, picking the eyes of both of them.

Subtle.

"Are you taking off here?"

Zhi Sang was confused: "Otherwise? Paralysis, it's not like you haven't seen it in the dormitory, why are you so hypocritical?"

Bai Yixiao was a little weird tonight, I don't know if it started when he coaxed Bai Ling, or when Zhi Sang punched him, this person suddenly lost his previous flirtatiousness.

"I'm gay." Bai Yixiao looked away and looked at a certain point outside the window, not knowing what he was thinking, "Are you sure you want to take off in front of me?"

Zhi Sang didn't bother to hang around with him, so he raised his eyebrows perfunctorily: "Never turn up or flirt, love to watch or not..."

Zhisang took off his clothes and went into the bathroom.

Soon he came out, wiped his hair with a dry towel, and nestled on the bed, while Bai Yixiao rested his arms on the other bed and looked at his phone.

The air suddenly quieted down.

"Bai Yixiao."

Bai Yixiao looked up tiredly: "Huh?"

"Have you prepared that watch for Bai Ling?"

"Guess as you please."

Zhi Sang turned over and said, "Which school bully counseling institution taught you this fucking problem? Usually, forget it. When someone throws you an olive branch in a serious way, you can't keep taking it with your feet. In No. [-] Middle School, there are deskmates like Sang Ge who are full of treasures and good tempers all over the street? I’ll ask you again, won’t you?”

Bai Yixiao opened his eyes: "Yes."

Zhi Sang fell back on the bed speechlessly: "Tang Monk went to the west to learn Buddhist scriptures without taking as many detours as you do."

Bai Yixiao's phone lighted up, and he touched it to take a look.

"Who is it?" Zhi Sang whistled, raised his eyebrows with the corners of his mouth hooked, "Your girlfriend?"

Bai Yixiao expressionless: "Are you envious?"

"You guessed all of this?" Zhisang sat up, leaning his arms on the bed, "Since I opened the door to the new world last time, I often have a dream that more than 20 years later, I, the richest man in the world, walks in the On the way to the acquisition of the No. [-] Middle School meeting, I suddenly saw a very interesting woman walking out in the middle of the night."

Bai Yixiao paused: "A garlic seller?"

Zhi Sang: "..."

"Don't interrupt me," Zhi Sang sat up straight, straightened his expression, "I took a closer look, the pink dress, brown curly waves, he turned out to be my deskmate I had lost for more than 20 years!"

Bai Yixiao sneered: "Either the table has become a master, or you have become a master. The Romance of the Gods is not as wonderful as yours."

Zhi Sang turned around: "Harm, theory comes from practice."

"Can your theory fill a line?"

Zhi Sang: "..."

"There are two concepts of dishes, one is 3 minutes, and the other is three small rows."

Zhi Sang: "..."

Bai Yixiao was able to say such words with a deadpan face.

Absolutely, absolutely.

It's a pity that Hollywood doesn't invite you to make blockbuster movies.

Zhi Sang: "Why, your drinking before the event and the cigarettes after the event can still fill a whole book? You are worse than my composition in the examination room in junior high school. Anyway, I can still write about my mother's illness, my father's broken leg, and my brother's hospitalization. The plot..."

Bai Yixiao put down the phone and closed his eyes.

Zhi Sang continued: "I'll give you an example. On a certain day of a certain year, Xiaobai entered the room with a big guy in women's clothes, and then they started drinking and playing. If you are so good at talking dirty, just make fun of him." Hundred words, add more ellipses between the coquettish words to exaggerate the atmosphere. Of course, you still wear earrings and smoke, so you must write it specially, and it will be too long..."

"Zhisang."

The lazy and hoarse voice lowered the irritability, and pulled out the ambiguous magnetism at the end.

Zhi Sang was taken aback.

Suddenly realized that Bai Yixiao used to call him two hundred and five, but this was the first time he called him by name.

Bai Yixiao closed his eyes, stretched his breath and said slowly, "You fucking shut up."

Zhi Sang: "..."
