sleep guide

Ning Yiwei didn't want to take a taxi, and walked back to his house from D University for about half an hour. He also wanted to wake up, so he decided to walk home.

When we walked near Liang Chong's company, on the empty street, there was a car waiting for a red light not far away. Ning Yiwei felt familiar at first glance, but after a closer look, it was indeed the car that drove when Liang Chong came to pick him up in the afternoon. that car.

Ning Yiwei took a few steps back. Afraid that Liang Chong would find out and force him to question him all night, he hid sideways in the alley and looked into the alley to see that the traffic light turned green and Liang Chong's car sped away before he dared to leave again. come out.

When Liang Chong drove away, Ning Yiwei didn't bother to go any further, so he took a taxi at the side of the road and asked the driver to drive to his house.

The taxi driver who took the order in the early morning did not follow the rules. After driving for a short distance, he lowered the window and lit a cigarette without saying a word. The wind blows inward, and a bit of soot flies towards the back seat, Ning Yiwei leans to the other side, lowering the frequency of breathing.

The late night and the smell of smoke also reminded Ning Yiwei of Liang Chong, the sharper and darker Liang Chong in his junior year.

At that time, Liang Chong's father had just suffered a serious illness and was bedridden for the rest of his life.Liang Chong travels back and forth between the company, the hospital and the school, and leaves the company very late every day, while Ning Yiwei happens to be a sophomore in high school, and he does night self-study until ten o'clock after school.The work and rest schedules of the two are similar, so Liang Chong always comes to pick up Ning Yiwei.

Ning Yiwei couldn't say when Liang Chong became addicted to smoking, but when Ning Yiwei noticed it, Liang Chong's addiction was already very strong, and even the car he often drove was full of smoke. Always cough.

Ning Yiwei was always curious about this kind of addictive thing, so he asked Liang Chong one night if he could give it a try.

Liang Chong flatly refused on the grounds that Ning Yiwei was underage, and told Ning Yiwei not to dream every day.

But the more Ning Yiwei was not allowed to do it, the more Ning Yiwei wanted to do it. He asked Liang Chong to go to a convenience store on the street to buy him a midnight snack, and when Liang Chong left, he took out Liang Chong's cigarettes and lighter, thinking Try smoking.

In the beginning Ning Yiwei was inexperienced, and didn't know that smoking should be done while lighting the fire. After lighting for a long time, she didn't think that was the case.Seeing Liang Chong push out the door of the convenience store after buying supper, Ning Yiwei took a puff without giving up, coughed several times, and the cigarette was actually lit for him.

Cigarettes are not easy to smoke, Ning Yiwei thought dizzily, it's too choking, a bit bitter in the throat, can't taste anything, just feel that the nicotine hurts the lungs.

Seeing Liang Chong getting closer, Ning Yiwei moved his mouth to the filter again, took a sip with his mouth in his mouth, and tasted it again, but it still felt nothing special.

Before the third puff of smoke entered his lungs, Liang Chong opened the car door.He saw Ning Yiwei who was blowing smoke rings with a cigarette in his hand, he was stunned for a moment, then quickly reached out to snatch the cigarette from Ning Yiwei's hand, and threw it into the car ashtray, the lid clicked when it was closed.Ning Yiwei forgot whether Liang Chong scolded him or not, but remembered that Liang Chong never smoked a cigarette in front of him since then.

The wind blows into the carriage, Ning Yiwei looks at the gradually familiar street scene in a daze, he doesn't know why he thinks of this, but when he thinks of it, Ning Yiwei misses it very much.

At that time, there was no secret between Liang Chong and Ning Yiwei, and the two of them seemed to be dependent on each other.

Now their lives are smoother than before, but Liang Chong has concealed a lot of things and stopped talking to Ning Yiwei. Liang Chong has more and more secrets, every move is difficult to guess, and he overprotects Ning Yiwei , Excessively exceeded the limit that ordinary relatives and friends should have.

Ning Yiwei was not good at metaphors, but he felt that Zhou Zirui had told some truths.

Liang Chong himself is like Ning Yiwei's emotional pacemaker, turning clouds and rains in Ning Yiwei's heart.

Ning Yiwei will bear both the good and the bad, and he will bear it, but no one can take Liang Chong away from his heart, not anyone.

Ning Yiwei arrived home, stood downstairs for a few minutes to dissipate the smell of cigarettes brought to him by the driver, and went upstairs.

Lu Jiaqin was still sitting on the sofa waiting for him to open the door. She thought that Ning Yiwei was studying hard at school until late at night, and when Ning Yiwei walked in, her eyes were filled with distress.

"Weiwei." She called Ning Yiwei to a stop, went to the kitchen and ordered him a bowl of hot supper, and asked Ning Yiwei to eat quickly to replenish his physical and mental strength.

Under the watchful eyes of his mother, Ning Yiwei ate all the supper, touched his round belly and went back to the room. After washing up, he rolled on the bed a few times. Finally, he couldn't help but took out his phone and stared at Liang Chong's name. After reading it for a long time, I sent Liang Chong a very short text message: "Are you asleep?"

Immediately added: "I can't sleep."

According to the usual practice, Liang Chong would call Ning Yiwei back, but today he somehow found the time to reply a text message: "Why can't I sleep?"

Ning Yiwei thought for a while and typed: "I wonder why you are unhappy this afternoon."

This time Liang Chong called him, Ning Yiwei looked at the caller, thought for a few seconds, and then answered.

Liang Chong asked him, "What are you thinking about in the middle of the night?"

Ning Yiwei clutched the phone and pursed her lips.

Liang Chong seemed to have slept through it, his voice was low and hoarse, with the waywardness towards Ning Yiwei that he had just woken up from.

"I just want to know why you are unhappy." Ning Yiwei said.

Liang Chong sighed, and asked Ning Yiwei: "What basis do you give me for judging my unhappiness?"

"Liang Chong." Ning Yiwei didn't answer Liang Chong's rhetorical question, but called Liang Chong's name.

Liang Chong simply said "Yes", and waited quietly for Ning Yiwei to speak.

"How do you know I'm pretending to be asleep?" Ning Yiwei still asked.

"...You still dare to ask," Liang Chong said angrily, "Next time I will take a photo for you to see, and you will know how badly you pretended."

"Oh," Ning Yiwei blinked guiltyly, "I don't understand a lot of things you've done recently."

"For example?" Liang Chong sounded out of patience.

But anyway, Liang Chong couldn't hit him if he wasn't in front of him, so Ning Yiwei continued to ask: "If I really fell asleep, what do you want to do?"

Liang Chong stopped.

Ning Yiwei felt that Liang Chong was thinking, but Ning Yiwei waited for a while but couldn't wait, and urged Liang Chong impatiently: "Tell me, I won't be angry."

"Aren't you angry?" Liang Chong casually repeated Ning Yiwei's words, as if he didn't believe it.

Ning Yiwei promised: "I will definitely not be angry."

Liang Chong was silent for a while.

Ning Yiwei seemed to hear Liang Chong smiled lightly and self-deprecatingly, and said as if joking: "I want to do anything."
