youth and time

Listening to the discussion of the girls behind, Zhong Chaozhou was a little dumbfounded.

And that group of girls was also having a lively chat, completely oblivious to the fact that the master was standing in front of them.

"Oh, by the way, let me tell you, that photo, damn it, you don't know how gentle Zhong Chaozhou looks at Jiang Yufan, that look is really... ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

"Okay, stop talking, go back and send me a photo, if you dare to forget, I'll kill you without discussing it!"

No way.

Knock cp?Are they that obvious?There are so...

No, no, it's not the relationship between the two of them. I'm straight, Jiang Yufan... It doesn't matter if it's straight, his mouth will definitely not find a partner, then this...

Not our fault!

Yes, it has nothing to do with us!

Zhong Chaozhou patted his face, forcing himself to wake up.

Don't girls just like to knock cp at every turn now?If they look pleasing to the eye, they will knock it off. This can only show that... I and Jiang Yufan are both good-looking, and they look good, so they knock it off. They have their own filters. In fact, it's not that exaggerated, they are just ordinary friends.

That's right, that's right, that's it...

"Hey! Classmate, do you want to buy it or not?" The aunt at the window shouted, and the people around all looked sideways. Only then did Zhong Chaozhou realize that he was fascinated by the discussion of the girls in the back, and hadn't paid attention to the team in front. Before I knew it, I was here, and I was four or five people away from the dining window.

"Ah, buy, buy, buy!" Zhong Chaozhou trotted forward to swipe his meal card and took out the plate, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, auntie, I just got distracted."

Zhong Chaozhou's smile is a standard handsome guy's smile. He is good-looking, just a very attractive face. The lethality of that smile on girls can be imagined. The girls next to him blushed when they saw it, but the aunts in the cafeteria couldn't help it. She is a middle-aged woman in her 50s and [-]s, and she has long since lost her thoughts about little girls. The aunt stood still at Zhong Chaozhou's charming smile, and snorted coldly: "Next!"

Zhong Chaozhou: "..."

Zhong Chaozhou took his meal and turned to leave. When he passed by the girls behind, he didn't dare to turn his head to look at them. Those girls didn't expect that he had just discussed the CP in front of the Lord for so long, so they didn't dare to look up. He, even though they only had less than a second to get along with each other face to face, that second was extremely long for them, and the air was filled with embarrassment.

"Damn it." The most energetic girl just said patted her chest, "Didn't he hear it?"

"Haha, judging by his reaction just now, he probably heard it."

"……………………"

This is so sloppy!

"Don't panic, it's all right, we have to hold on." Another girl comforted, "As long as we don't get embarrassed, the one who gets embarrassed is someone else!"

“………………………………”

Zhong Chaozhou trotted all the way back to the seat they had just occupied. The other three had already returned. Jiang Yufan stood beside the stool, watching Zhong Chaozhou running over, frowned and said, "Why are you running? Keep walking, I'm afraid your feet are bad It's fast, isn't it?"

Zhong Chaozhou: "...Aren't I afraid that you will wait anxiously?"

Jiang Yufan looked worried, and without saying a word, he stepped forward to support him, and pulled him to sit down.

Meng Jiale and Ji Han finally looked at each other and smiled tacitly.

It seems that the relationship between the two is really good. It turned out that Jiang Yufan rarely cared about anyone so much when they lived together.

Zhong Chaozhou sat down, raised his head and smiled flatteringly at Jiang Yufan, Jiang Yufan glared at him, and sat next to him.

Zhong Chaozhou blinked, picked up a piece of barbecue with chopsticks, and asked, "Barbecue, you took a bite last time and said it was delicious, do you still want to eat it? Have some more?"

Jiang Yufan glanced at him coldly: "No, thank you."

Zhong Chaozhou: "..."

Meng Jiale & Ji Hanzhong: "..."

Meng Jiale turned his eyes between the two brothers on the opposite side, and said with a smile: "Brother Yufan, do you still remember the old man on the first floor of our building? His son picked him up last month and moved him to Hainan went to..."

Meng Jiale chatted endlessly about the various changes in the community after Jiang Yufan moved. Jiang Yufan didn't speak, but just listened quietly. Occasionally, he talked about things he knew better, and would answer a sentence or two, and then never again. not talking.

Perhaps it was because Zhong Chaozhou didn't care much about his foot injury, Jiang Yufan looked very angry, and barely spoke to Zhong Chaozhou after the meal.

Knowing that it was his fault, Zhong Chaozhou scratched his hair, and followed Jiang Yufan step by step, carefully observing his expression, and whispered a few words to him from time to time.

Meng Jiale deliberately left a few pieces of meat uneaten while eating, wrapped it in toilet paper, and went out of the cafeteria. He ran to the side of the small flower bed and meowed softly a few times.

Zhong Chaozhou's foot injury healed relatively quickly, and now he is not limping so much when he walks. He walked over slowly: "What are you doing?"

Meng Jiale's voice was very soft: "Shh - don't talk, watch it later."

The four stood on the edge of the flower bed, holding their breath and concentrating on it. After a while, the grass in the flower bed moved slightly, and then a small white head poked out from the grass.

"Huh? Isn't this a stray cat raised by the school?"

"Yeah." Meng Jiale nodded with a smile, put the paper bag on the edge of the flower bed, opened it, pointed at the meat, and hooked his hands at the little white cat, "Come on, let's eat."

Although the cat is raised by the school, the school doesn’t care about feeding it. The school is only responsible for manicuring the cat’s nails, taking a bath, and feeding the cat to the uncles and aunts in the cafeteria. Of course, the school also allows students to feed the cat. But only if you don't hurt yourself.

Meng Jiale probably fed him a lot and for a long time. The little white cat knew him well. Seeing Meng Jiale, the little white cat meowed twice, with a high-pitched and thin voice, and then jumped out of the grass. He jumped out, jumped onto the edge of the flower bed in twos and threes, first rubbed Meng Jiale's palm obediently, then lowered his head and gnawed on the pieces of meat.

Zhong Chaozhou looked at the little white cat, and said in a low voice: "Wow. You are so good." He turned his head to look at Jiang Yufan to ask for a certificate, but when he turned his head, he saw Jiang Yufan staring at the little white cat , the eyes are rare tenderness, the eyes are also very focused, and there is even a smile on the corner of the mouth, a fool can see that Jiang Yufan likes this little white cat very much.

Zhong Chaozhou pursed his lips, changed his words at the end, and asked, "Let's feed him later, okay?"

Jiang Yufan was taken aback, raised his head, met Zhong Chaozhou's serious eyes, his heart skipped a beat inexplicably, he turned his head quickly to hide his panic, and whispered: "Ah...Okay."

Zhong Chaozhou smiled: "Then, if you eat in the cafeteria in the future, if you don't eat meat, you can pick out all the meat for it to eat."

"……Um."

After feeding the little white cat, Zhong Chaozhou and Jiang Yufan were going to the school's study room, Meng Jiale and Ji Han were going home eventually, and the four of them parted ways in the square in front of the campus.

Meng Jiale stood where he was, watching Jiang Yufan and Zhong Chaozhou slowly walking towards the study room, smiled, and finally said to Ji Han: "Hey, brother, do you feel that Brother Yufan has changed a lot?"

"Well, I feel it. According to his previous temperament, he probably wouldn't talk to us very much, let alone eat with us."

"Right, right, and look, when did you see Brother Yufan get so close to people other than his family." Meng Jiale couldn't help but sigh, "They have such a good relationship."

"Yes." Ji Han finally looked at the backs of the two of them, thoughtful, with meaningful eyes, "The relationship is really good..."

After finishing the day's class, Zhong Chaozhou returned home, took a quick shower, and collapsed on the bed. He naturally recalled everything that happened at school today, and he inevitably thought of the girls who said in the cafeteria at noon. if.

——You don't know how gentle Zhong Chaozhou looks at Jiang Yufan.

Zhong Chaozhou frowned, sat up from the bed, reached for his phone, opened the photo album, and found the photo he took with Jiang Yufan at the night market.

In the photo, both of their faces were facing the camera, but upon closer inspection, Zhong Chaozhou's eyes had been floating on Jiang Yufan's body, and those eyes were indeed very...soft.

But this is a detail, if you don't look carefully, you may not be able to see it. Even Zhong Chaozhou himself didn't notice it, but the group of girls saw it.

Zhong Chaozhou pursed his mouth into a line and frowned.

He clicked his tongue and rubbed his head irritably. He urgently needed someone to discuss this matter with him right now, but Qiao Yunfei hadn't finished school yet, and he was a senior in high school, so he was so busy that he could spare it Time is short, now Shen Yi'an, the only one he can trust and can discuss with himself, also went to the provincial experiment to participate in the competition, now he can be said to be in a state of disarray, completely confused, he really doesn't know what to do.

Can you pretend that nothing happened and you don’t know anything?

It should be ok……

As long as I act like nothing happened, then no one will notice that something is wrong, and it will just be something that the girls imagined.

Yes, just like that, nothing happened.

Zhong Chaozhou took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and then turned off the light in the bedroom.

The night is already deep, there are no summer cicadas outside the house, only a slight sound of the wind, which is especially obvious in the lonely autumn night, the light black clouds are inlaid in the sky, covering the moon and stars, looking up, there is only a boundless black night , can't find light, boundless, full of unknown and confusion...

The next day, Zhong Chaozhou woke up early, got up, changed clothes, washed and folded the quilt, then gently closed the door, and left the house with his schoolbag on his back.

At the same time as he was closing the door, there was a slight sound of closing the door beside him. When he saw Jiang Yufan standing at the door with his schoolbag on his back, he was stunned: "Why do you get up so early?"

Jiang Yufan closed the door gently: "I'm on duty today."

"Oh."

"What about you? Why are you up so early?"

Yesterday, there was just a battle between heaven and man in his heart. Now that Zhong Chaozhou saw the "culprit" that made him uneasy, he still felt strange and strange in his heart. He forced himself to pretend that nothing happened, and replied with a normal expression: "Oh , My mother got up early to make breakfast for me, it was too hard, I want her to sleep a little longer, come out to buy breakfast by herself, and bring some for you by the way."

"Oh, let's go then." Jiang Yufan hung his schoolbag on his shoulder again, "Let's go together."

"it is good."

The two bought breakfast on the breakfast cart at the entrance of the alley, and ate while walking. Jiang Yufan is a person who doesn't like to talk when eating, so he was quiet along the way, but Zhong Chaozhou, a person who always likes to talk when he has nothing to say, also It was exceptionally quiet, Jiang Yufan couldn't help but glanced at him: "Why are you so quiet today?"

"Ah? No, it's nothing." Zhong Chaozhou glanced at Jiang Yufan, then quickly turned his head to the side, trying to calm down, and said, "I...I was thinking about the basketball game. My foot will definitely heal before the game. , No problem playing."

Jiang Yufan: "Then take it easy and don't have any accidents."

"I know." Zhong Chaozhou nodded, and asked tentatively, "What about you? Do you consider taking part in the exam? You won't be allowed to play the whole course, and you will be a substitute. If I can't stand my feet, you can take it for me."

"No." Jiang Yufan refused without hesitation. "I really don't know how to play basketball. I haven't learned it. If it's a volleyball game or a table tennis game, I can still consider it."

"Huh? You really don't know how to play basketball?"

"I really don't." Jiang Yufan sighed and dragged his voice, "Do you think I'm lying?"

"……Oh."

"But you can talk to me if you need it. I don't know how to fight, but it's okay to be a military adviser for you."

Zhong Chaozhou thought for a while, and it seemed to be okay, so he nodded and said, "Then don't regret it, and be our military advisor when the time comes."

"No regrets."

"Pull the hook." Zhong Chaozhou said and stretched out his little finger.

"……childish."

Having said that, Jiang Yufan still stretched out his little finger to hook Zhong Chaozhou, and the two fingers hooked together, shaking slightly.

Seeing Jiang Yufan's entangled appearance of disdain for compromise, Zhong Chaozhou couldn't help laughing, Jiang Yufan's appearance seemed to be a gust of wind, blowing past, blowing away all the uneasiness, panic and doubts in Zhong Chaozhou's heart last night.

Who cares about 21 [-], it's fine now.

After that, talk about it later.
