[Bottle Evil] Sleepless

Lingfei quickly kissed him on the side of his face, and then looked up at him. I don't know if it was an illusion, but Wu Xie actually dug out some sincerity from his swamp-like eyes, like a puppy who has done something wrong, looking at his master eagerly. , but I don't know what to do.Wu Xie was so happy that he simply didn't speak. After waiting for a while, Zhang Qiling lowered his voice and said, "I didn't agree." After a long silence, he added, "I haven't."

Wu Xie laughed: "I didn't say you agreed."

Zhang Qiling was dumb.

Wu Xie restrained her smile a little, and said, "No matter what her purpose in contacting you is, her actions are always good. Just looking at this, I'm glad I have her."

Zhang Qiling seemed to be smiling.

Wu Xie said, "How old was the old man then?"

"eighty."

Wu Xie said: "It's also the age of longevity, you should think so."

Zhang Qiling said: "There are many things that he hasn't seen yet." Wu Xie couldn't answer, but he continued after a pause, "I haven't talked to you yet."

Wu Xie squeezed his fingers: "How did you tell him about me?"

Zhang Qiling said: "Tall, loves to laugh, has a silly name, has a lot of friends, and has a crush on a girl, very discreet."

Wu Xie waited for a while, "It's gone? You are such a good person, so you're gone?"

Zhang Qiling thought for a while and said, "I love you."

Wu Xie was taken aback.Then he added: "That's all."

After a while, Wu Xie came back to his senses and said, "You just told him that? Then, how did he react?"

Zhang Qiling said: "I was very angry. I ignored me for nearly three months, and I didn't let him in when I went to see him." Wu Xie raised his head and stared at his eyes, and he also stared at him, "Then my heart softened, and I was asked to go back on Saturday. Let's eat and bring you."

Thinking about the chance to face Zhang Qiling's relatives with such a relationship, Wu Xie felt mixed feelings, thought for a long time, and said, "Actually, you can come to me."

Zhang Qiling smiled and said, "How can I tell you? 'Follow me to meet the parents'?"

Wu Xie also felt that he was stupid, so he laughed and said, "Then how do you deal with him?"

"You don't like me." Zhang Qiling said, "Just say that."

Wu Xie's Adam's apple rolled.

"No, it's too miserable." Wu Xie said, "The Dragon Boat Festival starts the day after tomorrow, right? I'm going to meet his old man, you've completely ruined my image."

Zhang Qiling's hand around his waist slid onto his stomach and scraped it. Wu Xie was afraid of itching and shrank into his arms. He tightened his arms and said with a smile, "How do you ruin the law?"

Wu Xie said: "How noble and glamorous should I be in the old man's heart, and how ignorant I am? He must have said in his heart, I am such a good grandson, you little bastard is picking up a big deal, it's time to snicker, you don't fucking come over here see me?"

Zhang Qiling pinched him on the waist, and said: "What he's thinking is - what a good person my grandson is looking for?"

Wu Xie was taken aback, smiled and pinched his waist, saying it was a pinch, but in fact he didn't pinch him much, his flesh was too tight.

"Well, you boasted of yourself."

Zhang Qiling went to bite his earlobe, and mumbled, "I'll take it to him the day after tomorrow."

"Will he hit me?"

"It's okay, I'm here."

On the first day of the short vacation, it was still hot as hell.The two of them didn't sleep in. Wu Xie got up early and went to the kitchen to heat up a few instant steamed buns in the microwave. After Zhang Qiling finished washing, he ate them before heading to the cemetery.I bought a bouquet of flowers on the way, Wu Xie hugged her in her arms, the car was filled with a scent of flowers, and looking at Zhang Qiling again, there was a subtle feeling.After stopping the car and walking up the road, Wu Xie became more restless and sweated, the bouquet was changed from left hand to right hand, wiped off the sweat, changed back again, and then wiped right hand—finally Zhang Qiling snatched it.

With both hands empty and having nothing to do, he simply lit a cigarette.

Zhang Qiling finally couldn't stand it anymore, put his hand on his shoulder and pinched it, then put it down again, said: "It's not true."

Wu Xie thought for a while, and said, "I really think he will dislike me."

Zhang Qiling turned his head to look at him, and continued to move forward.

Wu Xie said: "No, you said he was soft-hearted, but he was soft-hearted towards you. After all, because of me, a man, he can't have a great-grandson, so he should have some feelings for me? It's fine if I have the conditions like Xie Yuchen, but In fact..."

It was interrupted by Zhang Qiling's sideways glance.

Wu Xie looked away, took off the cigarette, and exhaled the smoke ring. He actually caught sight of a person among the layers of tombstones. The back was strangely familiar. He stopped and looked at it for a while, and suddenly there was an aura, saying "Is that Qi Yu?" There was no answer, but looking back, Zhang Qiling was also staring there, frowning slightly.

The two hurried over, Qi Yu had just put a cigarette in front of the stele, when he heard the movement, he looked back and fixed his eyes, Wu Xie panicked for a while, feeling like he was caught at the scene - he felt overwhelmed again , Friends can also come with them.God's conscience noticed a gust of wind blowing over, shaking Qi Yu's short and slightly curly hair, the cigarette was held down by a lighter, so it was not blown away.

The two walked over, Wu Xie smiled at Qi Yu, who also smiled politely.Zhang Qiling leaned over and put the bouquet next to Yan.It was Qi Yu who spoke first, and said with a smile: "Look at my memory, it wasn't my mother who reminded me, I should have forgotten, and I didn't come last year."

Zhang Qiling straightened up and said, "Let you run for a while."

Qi Yu stuffed his hands into his trouser pockets, took a step back to make room for them, and said with a smile, "Two old and tough friends, I should."

It's not "We are so strong", although Wu Xie believes in Zhang Qiling, Wu Xie is still a little proud.

Zhang Qiling didn't say anything more.Wu Xie couldn't speak, and was in a daze.Qi Yu said again: "Thinking about it, your grandfather is also a very serious person. I was very afraid of him when I was young, and you are too——no, more serious than him."

Zhang Qiling didn't answer, but Wu Xie said to Qi Yu with great interest, "Is he very similar to the old man?" He leaned forward to look at the photo, he was young, in military uniform, with tough facial features, without a smile, Zhang Qiling did look like this He, but a little less majestic than him?At least in Wu Xie's view, Zhang Qiling seemed to be gentler.

"The grandparents and grandchildren are like friends." Qi Yu laughed, "He is very popular with the elders, and my grandpa always talks about him. I am a serious victim of 'other people's children'."

Wu Xie also laughed: "This understanding, I have a childhood, and I am outstanding in every aspect. I have been 'other people's child' for more than 20 years, and it is not over yet."

Qi Yu understood: "...including finding a partner?"

Wu Xie nodded: "The point is to find someone."

The two laughed together.They have similar personalities, and they are both talkative people, unlike Zhang Qiling, who often talk coldly.

After half a cigarette, Qi Yu left.The sun climbed higher again, releasing heat like a knife generously, Wu Xie watched Qi Yu disappear from sight, and then turned around, just in time to see Zhang Qiling wiping the ashes on the tombstone with his hands, without even a piece of paper.Wu Xie hurried forward, grabbed his hand, and fumbled in the bag for a long time, but couldn't find a tissue.Looking up at Zhang Qiling again, with a dead-headed look on his face, if he is not to be wiped, he must cause trouble.I had no choice but to let go, leave the other side to him, and wipe the other piece by himself.

A thought suddenly popped into my head—if I slept in, would you be so precious even to the tombstone?

Immediately wanted to slap myself again.Why are you cursing yourself to death?Besides, this was his most important family member—maybe the word “parent” could be dropped too.When he was with him, Wu Xie was still happy on his own, so of course he was not qualified to compete with the old man for the "best".

After wiping it off, the hands of the two of them were covered with dust and turned into mud. When they straightened their backs again, Wu Xie felt a burst of soreness. While putting his hands back and beating his back, he said, "Qi Yu is still a child of yours."

Zhang Qiling shook his head and said, "My lord is on good terms, we haven't had much contact. It's not as good as Zhang Haike."

"Zhang Haike?"

"Well. He is two years older than me. He was sent to my grandfather when he was eight years old. He spent a summer vacation."

Wu Xie smiled: "Where's Zhang Haixing?"

Zhang Qiling said: "I didn't come."

It's hard enough to tease him.Wu Xie stretched out his hand to scratch his hair, but when he raised it, he realized that his hand was covered with ashes, and retracted to his side, looked at Zhang Qiling for a while, then turned to the tombstone, staring at the black and white photo in a daze, Zhang Qiling didn't bother him either.After a long time, he suddenly smiled and squatted down, "Grandpa, I am Wu Xie."

Without looking at Zhang Qiling, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his trouser pocket, smoked two, pushed Qi Yu's one aside, put one over, and pressed the butt of the cigarette with the pack.Holding the other one by himself, he took out the lighter and lit it, took a deep breath, and said while exhaling the smoke ring: "Actually, I can't blame me for this, you can't just listen to Zhang Qiling, and he didn't tell me."

He was answered by a long silence and a few birdsongs suddenly.

He frowned and said, "If he had chased me, we could have sat down and had a drink."

Zhang Qiling knelt down beside him, looking at the photo.Wu Xie didn't look at him, but lowered his head, smoked almost half a cigarette, took off the cigarette butt, stared at the small grains of sand on the ground, and moved his lips.

"I quite like him."

The sun gnawed viciously at every inch of exposed skin on the human body, as if blood was about to ooze out in the next second—then let it flow out, and use it to pay homage to something and witness something by the way.There is a box in his heart, he has already locked the person beside him in it earlier, now he wants to peel off the chest cavity, take him out, and let others have a look.

He is not afraid of pain.

21

On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, when Wu Xie woke up, Zhang Qiling had disappeared.I thought I was going to the bathroom, but after waiting for a while, there was no movement. I got out of bed and called a few times out of the bedroom, but there was still no response. I searched the kitchen and the terrace.
