broken sun

Both sides of the road in the garden are full of roses of various colors. The swings are tied under the shaded pergolas. Down, like a paradise.Qi Nian spent the whole holiday evening on the swing.

Most of the time, Gu Saming just stood aside and watched. When he was bored watching, Qi Nian would hold the rope tightly and push him twice on the back.

Gradually getting more proficient, Qi Nian started to want to swing higher but was a little scared and difficult to wait for. Gu Saming endured the heat of the summer and pushed him higher without saying a word, but a smile appeared on his face, not changing his viciousness.

The pleasant wind blew across his cheeks and ears, and seeing the pole above his head was so close, Qi Nian was both happy and scared, even begging for mercy didn't work, subconsciously clenched his hands tightly, trying to turn his head to find his brother.

In a whirlwind, all the senses are constantly thrown up, and Qi Nian who is hanging on his heart will often fall into a firm embrace in the end.

Then it was lifted from above.

Then Qi Nian continued to take risks the next day, hesitating, "push me" for a while, and "slow down" for a while.

"Are you playing with me, Qi Nian?"

Qi Nian shrunk his neck and turned his head in embarrassment: "Brother..."

Gu Saming feigned anger, and shouted: "What are you looking at? Hold your hands tightly! You will fall down later." After speaking, he no longer obeyed Qi Nian's command, satisfying his search for excitement.

But he stayed behind Qi Nian every step of the way, his eyes rose and fell, and he couldn't help but laugh.

He never imagined that he would one day find the simplest and true joy in such a childish thing.

Gu Saming has never done such a childlike thing since he was a child. To put it bluntly, he just doesn't bother to play on the swings.

The happiness he had been missing since childhood was delayed for so long, but it was brought to him by Qi Nian who was no longer in childhood.

The summer vacation of the junior high school was extremely short. The school arranged for the whole grade to return to school for self-study in advance. The four key classes of literature and science were a week earlier than other classes.For the rest of August, Qi Nian and Gu Saming have to go to school as usual even if the heat is severe.

Although it is a whole day of self-study, there is no class, and there will be no teacher in the classroom watching all the time, but the bell is still punctual, and the rules remain the same.

Qi Nian sat by the window, he could comfortably lean against the cold wall, and he could do whatever he wanted.

After burying his head in brushing up the questions, before the bell for the last class in the morning rang, Qi Nian looked around, but no one cared anyway, so he got up and slipped out of the classroom quietly.

Qi Nian slipped to the toilet, washed his hands and stood in the vent of the corridor, leaning on the window sill to look at the deserted playground.

Some time ago, the certificates for their participation in the mathematics league were officially issued. Although the results of the awards have already been obtained, and the whole school has also circulated praises, but the written papers are more realistic in their hands.

It also caused people to sigh again.

When Qi Nian went to the office to receive the award, he saw Gu Saming earlier, but he was guilty and dared not raise his eyes.

Zhang Chao had already finished his shock, and sighed as much as he should have. He stared blankly at the two brothers, lamenting the magic of genes and the power of IQ.He even finally thought about it twice in his heart, Qi Nian went to the liberal arts class in the second month and ranked first, maybe he really made the right choice?interest is the best teacher?

Qi Nian recalled every frame of Gu Saming's expression and movements when he was talking to him after leaving the office that day - he couldn't see the clues with his eyes.

Gu Saming no longer wanted to get angry or blame him, and even praised him for being smart.

Thinking about it now makes me feel happy.

"Yo, is someone here skipping class?"

Qi Nian was startled, turned around slowly with staring eyes, frowned and said in a low voice, "Keep your voice down."

Xu Li jumped down the steps in three steps and two steps: "Gu Saming is not here anymore, get out of class is not over yet. Since everyone is out, let's go and eat."

"..."

Qi Nian stood still for two seconds, reluctantly said "Okay", and walked towards the stairwell.

Xu Li came back to find Qi Nian to go down for lunch with him since returning to school for self-study.After a few months, they didn't have to adapt anymore, and it was no different from when they were in the same class before.

However, there are few people in the school during this time, the cafeteria is not open at noon, and few off-campus restaurants are open. There are only a few places, and everyone naturally looks up and down when they go to eat.It doesn't matter if Qi Nian meets Gu Saming now, but every time they see Shi Ze together, they feel that the atmosphere suddenly changes.In fact, there is nothing particularly different, but Shi Ze's "I am the best in the world" vigor in the past was a little weaker, and he would not look directly at him every time, urging Gu Saming to leave quickly, and he didn't know who he didn't want to see. .

Apart from knowing that they had slept, Qi Nian didn't know what happened afterwards.

Moreover, when Xu Li occasionally mentioned Shi Ze, he always smiled brightly, as if nothing bad happened, and he didn't do whatever he wanted with other people or be cold and decisive towards Huang Zhenshi at all.

Most of the time, Xu Li would whisper to him other things that he had never heard of, and his tone was more like teasing him, which made Qi Nian often close his lips tightly, eat and leave without saying a word.

Qi Nian left by himself, but he started to be curious. Xu Li always spoke in a half-concealed way, making people want to find out.

But he hadn't had time to explore these unspeakable and half-knowledgeable unknown areas, and he bumped into people who were rare in a century when he was at the school gate after school.

At the end of the day, when Qi Nian walked to the school gate, holding a piece of change from Gu Saming in his hand to buy a drink, he was still the same.He took a bottle of iced Coke from the freezer, and forgot to ask for the money the boss asked for, so he turned around happily and went to find his brother.

"Hey! Classmate, money!"

Qi Nian looked at Gu Saming who hadn't come out far away, but when he heard the shout behind him, he turned his head and gave a questioning look with his mouth slightly open, until the boss smiled and held out the money in front of his eyes, and then he accepted it in embarrassment. , said thank you.

He walked back again, looked away from the Coke bottle in his arms, and raised his head, but was suddenly taken aback by the person who appeared in front of him at some point.

The man in the suit and tie that cast a shadow over him was much taller than he was, as tall as his brother.

Qi Nian knew that this was his father.

But he never saw his dad outside the villa.

He also rarely sees his affable and not always present father.

Qi Wenzhi looked down at Qi Nian, didn't respond to his surprised expression, just smiled and stretched out his hand naturally.

Qi Nian stood still, a little at a loss, and after a while he slowly pulled out his hand covered in cold water, and was held by Qi Wenzhi.
