broken sun

It was English morning reading this morning, before the time came, everyone in the classroom had arrived, the seats were filled to the brim, the air was filled with all kinds of smells, blown by the wind from the window, some of them dissipated, and then will come up.

Because no one in the classroom dared to sneak breakfast in Ye Xiaoqin's morning self-study, even if she was caught when she first entered the door, try to avoid it as much as possible.

Even when Wang Qingsong came in hastily with a bowl of noodle soup, he didn't choose to untie the plastic bag and bury his head in eating. Instead, he stuffed the rolls in the drawer and put the noodle bowl in orderly.

Qi Nian's English textbook was spread out on the table, and he was staring at the vocabulary page in a daze, unlike others who were in a hurry and scurrying up and down.

Gu Saming came back after receiving the report, and now he was sitting on the right side of him, flipping through the white paper with his fingers, with a focused yet relaxed expression.

One second before the bell rang, Ye Xiaoqin lived up to expectations and appeared at the door of the classroom, knocked on the blackboard meaningfully, and walked around the classroom, bumping into people who tilted their heads at her from time to time, and stared out.

Qi Nian doesn't like the morning reading session very much. Reading aloud is easy to get boring and tiring. He often only opens his mouth to pretend, but actually reads silently.

And Qi Nian was absent-minded this morning, his eyes focused accurately for a while, and the next second his eyes were jumping between lines of words, he couldn't settle down, and he couldn't see much at all.

I wanted to deliver the letter again, and it was the same girl, Qi Nian had just glanced at it on the way into the classroom, and only needed to look at it twice—the letter looked the same as last time, it was still light pink, with handwriting The words "Received by Gu Saming" are neatly written, and "love" is printed in cursive on the back.

He stared blankly at a certain string of words in the book, but he seemed to see the letter through dozens of pages of wood pulp paper and a piece of wood.

"Little pretty, hello!" Xu Li pushed him a little from the side.

Qi Nian wobbled and turned to look at him.

"Then what, I want to ask you something?" Xu Li said.

Do not ask.Ye Xiaoqin just turned around and passed the aisle between them, Qi Nian silently turned her head back.

Xu Li waited for the old Buddha to leave before he finally leaned over, lowered his voice, and went straight to the point: "Tonight, will your elder brother Gu Saming take you?"

Qi Nian heard the buzzing in his ears twice, but he didn't show it on his face and just nodded.

Xu Li's eyes lit up immediately: "Really? That's easy!"

"What's easy to do?" Qi Nian asked.

"Hey, take it and drink it." Xu Li turned his head but gave him a bottle of milk in a rather imposing manner, "Don't be polite, drink the one that grows taller."

Qi Nian looked at the not-so-pure smile in his eyes, and only asked, "What do you want to do?"

The bribes have already been bribed, so Xu Li said: "It's not Friday today, and I'm free when I'm free. I used to take you here and there to play. Can you repay me tonight?"

Qi Nian understood and agreed.

In fact, Xu Li had nothing to say if he didn't say the last two sentences.

The bell for the morning self-study had already rang, and it was not until Ye Xiaoqin walked out of the classroom that the thundering sound of reading finally stopped, and began to make noise "unorganized and undisciplined".

Qi Nian handed He Jiayan his homework and sat on the seat for a while.

Wang Qingsong was already devouring the powdered soup in his hand, Qi Nian sniffed the strong aroma, reached out to find something from the drawer, and went to find Gu Saming.

When he walked over, Shi Ze was talking nonsense with Gu Saming, when he saw him coming, he immediately grinned and rolled his eyes, but he backed away a little.

The annoying voice suddenly disappeared from Gu Saming's ear, and he saw Qi Nian from the corner of his eye.

Qi Nian twisted his hands behind his back, and the wide school uniform sleeves covered most of the things in his hands, so he couldn't see Lushan's true face. Gu Saming met Qi Nian's downcast gaze, wondering what was wrong with this little guy, he turned his eyes to look around , stood up first and walked out, and Qi Nian followed.

"Why do you have to talk about it outside?" Gu Saming put it in his pocket, and leaned against the wall with windows and laughed.

There are people coming and going in the corridor, but no one has the nerve to stretch their necks and eyes too long on the road to find out what is going on in this corner.

Qi Nian rubbed his fingers against the cuff: "This morning, that girl asked me to help her again..."

Gu Saming's eyebrows moved slightly, watching Qi Nian stretch out his right hand.

Sure enough, another love letter.

It's still the same, authentic casing and formula.

He picked it up without saying a word, turned it around with the front and back, looked at the top and said, "Now you are full-time helping people deliver love letters?"

Qi Nian whispered, "She met me when she was going upstairs."

"Well," Gu Saming raised his eyelids, and replied in a neutral tone, "So I helped."

He doesn't even have to open it.Regarding the fact that this love letter itself has no value at all, when the girl found the door of their class last time, he had already made it clear in person.Saying the same thing over and over again is meaningless in any form.

But Gu Saming was not in a hurry to throw it into the trash can.

Qi Nian took a deep breath, not sure why the current atmosphere has become so stiff and difficult.

He is doing these as he wants to take care of Sam.Because the idea of ​​withholding a love letter from someone else to his brother belongs to the category that shouldn't be.

However, he could still understand the unhappiness in Gu Saming's words.

Qi Nian began to recall that it was the same last time, when Gu Saming saw the letter, his face suddenly changed. Although it was a bit exaggerated to say so, it is true that his tone and expression became subtle and serious.

perhaps......

"...Although you rejected me that day, some things are still out of control. Even if the result can be reduced to a foil, I still like you, and I am afraid that I will leave regrets," Gu Saming opened the love letter at some point , the tone was cold and calm, and he read it at a volume that only Qi Nian could hear, "If you don't try it with me, you really won't regret it?"

Qi Nian gritted his teeth immediately, and his ears gradually turned red, no matter how cold the tone of his voice was, it couldn't stop the ripples in his heart.Even though he knew that everything he heard had nothing to do with him, Gu Saming didn't even care about it.

He could see that the piece of paper that Gu Saming was reading still had a few paragraphs of eloquence.

But that alone is enough.

Perhaps, Gu Saming just hates all the people he dislikes confessing to him.

Because all the confession may mean coveting, possessing, being persistent and overreaching.

— would be intrusive and annoying.

And what Gu Saming has for him is only family care and love, which has nothing to do with the above.

"What do you think?" Gu Saming asked.

Qi Nian opened his mouth empty, unexpectedly, Gu Saming asked his opinion instead, as if he wanted to think about the possibility of "try it" in the words just now.

A gust of wind suddenly passed behind Qi Nian, someone whistled a greeting to Gu Saming, Gu Saming raised his eyes in distraction.

When the gust of wind passed and the people left, the question that should be answered still had to be answered, Qi Nian felt as if a stone had been placed in his heart, feeling aggrieved and sad, he said at a loss: "How do I know... ..”

Gu Saming had been expressionless just now, but now he heard it, frowned, and changed his tone and said, "Okay, let's go back to class first."

Qi Nian still looked at him motionlessly.

"What's wrong?" Gu Saming came back to his senses, he was asking for trouble, so he could only ask.

"Xu Li also wants to go tonight, and I agree." Unexpectedly, Qi Nian suddenly said something wrong.

Gu Saming put away the things in his hands, and was stunned for a moment, but finally he didn't say the teasing words: "Got it."

After school, a group of people who met with each other walked out of the school in the spirit of Friday's holiday. Shi Ze was hooking shoulders with Wang Qingsong, arguing with You Hao, and the others laughed and watched, adding firewood to the fire from time to time.

Qi Nian silently drifted away from their atmosphere, and at the same time saw the private car parked on the crowded road to take them to and from school, and subconsciously panicked. Just as he was about to turn around to look for Gu Saming, Gu Saming held the side of his neck.

"You go first, then come." After Gu Saming finished speaking, he led Qi Nian over there.

Everyone briefly looks at me and I look at you.Shi Ze couldn't care less, he raised his hand and said, "Waiting for you at the intersection!"

It was also rare for He Yu to be so worried. He asked the driver to drive over after school, and asked if he needed to provide anything else, or drove them there.

Gu Saming politely rejected the driver who was not good at talking, and only put down his schoolbag first, and then helped Qi Nian put away the schoolbag, and then went back to meet Shi Ze and the others.

Qi Nian made a false alarm, and now his back felt relieved, which was much more comfortable.

The two met Xu Li on the way. Xu Li was standing against a telephone pole, obviously waiting for them.

"Little beauty, let's go?"

——was waiting for Qi Nian.

Gu Saming found it strange and ridiculous to hear his words.

To be precise, Xu Li has been forcing Gu Saming to pay more attention recently, such as frequent flirting, dark staring and so on.It is still a bit difficult for Gu Saming to completely believe that Qi Nian's quality of seeing people is not bad.

He put the hand on Qi Nian's shoulder and shook it.

But Xu Li is thick-skinned and doesn't think he is superfluous at all, so he abruptly made a threesome with them.

In fact, when Qi Nian saw Xu Li, he had a faint feeling of being "saved".

He himself couldn't help but spurn him, he wanted to rely on others while thinking about escaping, a typical example of crossing a river and tearing down a bridge, he still thought about it and wanted to tear it down over and over again.

But it was too difficult.

It's too difficult for Qi Nian and Gu Saming to get along like brothers and sisters, even if it's just a look.It is not right to take one more step forward, nor is it right to take one more step back, Qi Nian is stuck in the paradox, unable to touch anything, every step needs to be explored, and the consequences need to be considered.

This morning, he thought that he would not make a mistake this time, so he handed over the love letter clearly.But it still seems wrong.All the secret happiness and unspeakable impulses about adolescence, turned into a "like" and revealed to Gu Saming, are all wrong.

Qi Nian wondered if it was because he was out of touch with the world and others that he couldn't understand his brother's thoughts.

He saw the group of people waiting in front, each with their own joy and excitement, and he also had the hesitation and frustration that could overwhelm them.

A group of more than a dozen of them was half an hour later than the expected time. When they arrived at the destination, everything that was originally scheduled was ready immediately.

Shi Ze asked his parents to make a reservation for tonight at this KTV in the bustling area of ​​the city center. He planned to eat, sing and then go out to have fun. Anyway, there are no shortage of other places to play nearby.

As soon as we entered, the quarrels started to fight, because they were all classmates, and most of them were boys. In the originally dull and dark private room, the colorful lights turned on, the screen was turned on, and there was no sound from the microphone, and someone started Howling sad love songs, one laughs louder than the other.

All kinds of snacks, snacks and fruit plates were brought up by the service staff one after another.

Qi Nian was sitting on the sofa, holding the leather sofa cushion in his hands, and there was a sound when he moved a little. He was not too out of place, because He Jiayan and two other quieter girls were also sitting on the side, and began to chatter. eat and drink.

And because Qi Nian has a little "friendship" with He Jiayan, it's not awkward to sit together.

When Gu Saming first came in, he was inexplicably dragged by Shi Ze and a few others to gamble—Shi Ze told others that he was no match for anything else, but at least he could beat Gu Saming in checkers, and boasted about it. How invincible he was in checkers since he was a child.

Gu Saming was speechless for a while, and was forcibly dragged to join this stupid///forceful puzzle game that elementary school students are not willing to play anymore.

So a group of sophomore male high school students with an average height of about 1.8 meters played checkers in the KTV.

Not only are people playing, but others are watching with enthusiasm.

Qi Nian didn't go up, and couldn't go up, just sat on the spot, watching the movement inside from the outermost side.

Although the game has only started not long ago, Qi Nian is almost certain that Gu Saming must win.

When Xu Li came in, the fighting on the chessboard spread to the "end" of the people standing in line, and it was the time when the atmosphere was at its highest.

"What is this doing?"

Although he walked with Qi Nian and Gu Saming for a while, he first went to the station to take the car home to settle down and take care of the fuck.That's why I came here just now.

Qi Nian knew how to flatten his mouth: "Diaoziqi."

"Ah?" Xu Li sat down beside him, looked at the two people who were in the center of the entire private room, and laughed out of breath after being shocked, "...it's interesting."

I don't know what's going on in the game, but someone started to play tricks on purpose to lure Shi Ze to increase the bet.

"I said Shi Ze, you're fucking going to lose, don't struggle, and drink three cups for me quickly!" Wang Qingsong was the one who sold his teammates first.

"That's it!"

"I think so too."

Shi Ze stared at the glass beads in his green grid, thinking hard about the way out, his fighting spirit was aroused by their agitation, and he yelled while eating: "Are you human? Ah?! If I can lose today , I chop upside down..."

"Hey, hey, there are still female compatriots who know, what are you talking about!" A playful girl sitting close to him stopped him with a teaser.

Gu Saming kept smiling, lazily pretending not to treat his opponents as human beings, and at this moment he also said: "Civilized games, okay?"

There was a burst of laughter immediately.

Qi Nian's mood was affected by the current atmosphere, and he looked at his brother's side face with round eyes, seeing some feeling of refreshment.

Among them, several times, because of looking at it for too long, I was in a daze, and I had the illusion that Gu Saming had also glanced at him a few times.

There was laughter and booing all around, and the joy was so obvious that it seemed as if he, too, was having it.

Although Xu Li sat far away, he followed them with a smile.He looked back at Qi Nian sitting upright, and patted Qi Nian on the back: "Why are you so serious, isn't it funny? Your brother sitting in front of that pile of colorful glass beads is funny enough."

He Jiayan sat on a small stool and went to play poker with someone. She happened to see this scene during the break. Although she could hear it vaguely, she picked two pieces of watermelon from the fruit plate with a toothpick and handed it to Qi Nian in a friendly manner.

Qi Nian didn't react, he took it for two seconds and bit the watermelon into his mouth.

The sweet watermelon juice burst into the mouth with slight chewing, and the side blocked by Xu Li seemed to have won or lost. If it weren't for the KTV's extraordinary sound insulation effect, the roof might be lifted.

Xu Li turned his head to look at the grand occasion over there, and when he turned back to look at Qi Nian, he was silent for a moment, then leaned over, and said vaguely with him, "Little beauty, you are so brave!" ...but to help you once."
