Chapter 53

I don’t know what other people’s youth is like. My youth has only one name——Zhou Yu.

Time can be recalled to our childhood, the two are in the same village, or neighbors.

But I knew the difference from Zhou Yu when I was a child. When my family lived in a bungalow, his family lived in a two-story building. When my house was built, his family was already running a factory.Although he is a neighbor, he is reluctant to play with him, but also because he is a neighbor, he cannot be avoided.

From time to time, he would kick open the door of my house, call my mom and aunt, and my dad and uncle with a smile, and then naturally stay and eat.He also did those bad things, smashing someone's glass today, and burning the straw in someone's field tomorrow. The key is that he always takes me along with him.But when my dad tried to beat me up, he stood in the way.

Because he was two years older than me, he had to graduate from elementary school before me. When I was in the fourth grade, I heard him say that he was going to the city to go to junior high school.The key is that this school still needs accommodation, so I really had two years of peaceful primary school career.When I entered junior high school, I didn't expect my parents to entrust Zhou Yu's father's relationship and let me go to that junior high school in the city.

And this year, Zhou Yu's third year of junior high school, was in the period of rebellion.

When I saw Zhou Yu appearing in a group of social people fighting in groups, I was shocked.

A fist hit his face, and he saw me the moment he fell down.I ran away at that time, but I kept circling in my mind the last look he looked at me, with a bit of ruthlessness and certainty, like a lion that has been hungry for a long time.

There have been great changes between junior high school and elementary school. The girls around me will secretly like a certain boy in the class, and they will often hear gossip about who is together.And the gossip about Zhou Yu, a boy in the third grade of junior high school, often reached my ears.

Even though Zhou Yu "doesn't study well", his grades have always been among the best, and girls' frothy fantasy of "boys are not bad and girls don't love" is flooding, especially this boy has a good-looking face.

Once, my deskmate came back from using the toilet and told me that he saw Zhou Yu at the toilet door, but I didn't make a sound.I have met Zhou Yu several times at school since I was in junior high school, but both of them just looked at each other from a distance and walked away, neither saying hello to anyone, like strangers.

But my deskmate sneaked up to my ear and said that she saw Zhou Yu kissing a girl from the third year of junior high school.

At that time, I didn't know what I was thinking, but I just made some excuses and said to go to the toilet, and then I saw Zhou Yu in front of the toilet door, and the girl in his arms.I noticed that the girl's lips were red and swollen, and when I thought of my deskmate, my face turned red for no reason.

Zhou Yu saw me as soon as he turned his head, his eyes were flickering and suddenly he was about to walk towards me. I turned around and ran away in fright like a frightened bird, and my heart was still beating like thunder when I ran to the classroom.I didn't listen to what the teacher said on the podium that day. My mind was full of the way Zhou Yu looked at me and the girl's red and swollen lips.

In the evening, after school, I went to the dormitory, but Zhou Yu blocked the way when I reached the dormitory downstairs. The classmates who came back with me immediately left me and ran away after being shot by him.

He asked: Why pretend not to know me?
I shook my head and said no.

He asked again: Then why didn't you come to talk to me when you saw me before?You saw me during the day and turned around and ran away?
I buried my head in silence, thinking to myself that you saw me before and didn't you say nothing?
Seeing that I was silent, he suddenly came up and took my hand and left. I panicked and asked him where he was going, and without looking back, he threw me two words - eat.Because it was still early, there were not many people in the cafeteria. After Zhou Yu pulled me into the cafeteria, he pointed me to an empty seat and asked me to sit and wait. He took the plate and went to make food.

Later, when the boarding students came one after another, they all looked at our table, and I felt uncomfortable.

Zhou Yu ate food without realizing it, and kept pinching it for me.

From that day on, Zhou Yu returned to my life. Every evening, she would wait for me downstairs in the dormitory to go to the cafeteria for dinner. Sometimes I didn’t see other people at noon, and sometimes she would wait outside the classroom.I don't know if it's been two years, he has become a little strange to me, it feels like a different person.He used to love to smile very much, but now he has become very cool. Even when he smiles, he half-tucks the corners of his mouth. He is so tall that he is a head taller than me. I have to look up when talking to him. .

It may also be because after two years, I don't dislike him so much anymore.Coupled with the envious eyes of the girls at work and in the dormitory, my vanity was inflated, and I felt that it was an honor to have him walking by my side.

One evening, I didn't see him waiting downstairs in the dormitory. I felt weird and didn't think much about it. I waited until dark before someone said that Zhou Yu was looking for me downstairs.Hurrying downstairs, he was the tall figure at the door of the girls' dormitory.

But when I walked over, I realized that something was wrong. The half of the face illuminated by the light was obviously bruised, and the corner of the mouth seemed to be broken.

When he saw me coming out, he asked me if I had eaten?
I ate while scrutinizing him, but he still grabbed me and left, but to the outside of the school.

There are several small restaurants open at the gate of the school, so I went into one at random.While waiting for the food, I couldn't help but touch his face, annoyed by looking at him and muttered: "Look at it if you want, isn't it just a little hurt."

I was quiet for a while, and asked in a low voice, "Did you fight with someone again?"

His eyes suddenly brightened, and he stared at me, "Did you see me that day?"

Knowing what day he was talking about, I nodded.

He leaned over and frowned at me and asked with a smile, "Do you think I'm handsome?" I felt a black line protruding from my forehead, and when I saw him being knocked to the ground with a fist, I still felt He is handsome?
He didn't think so, and said to me in a showy tone: "A man should be bloody, and a little injury is nothing. Let me tell you, Jia Xiaoru, now I have taken in two younger brothers. Don't mention it when you go outside." How majestic."

I looked at the corner of his broken mouth, and I didn't agree with his idea in my heart.Because I became familiar with him again during this period, I said it without thinking too much: "I'm not at all majestic, and I'm not handsome at all."

His eyes widened: "Why?"

I couldn't find any reason, so I hesitated for a long time and only said: "In short, I don't like it."

Zhou Yu stopped talking for a while, and stared at me with squinted eyes. I felt uncomfortable, "If you are fine, I will go back to the dormitory." After leaving a word, he ran back upstairs.

Later, I never saw Zhou Yu with any injuries on his face, but I did see the two little brothers he mentioned.They are also boys in their third grade of junior high school, who are smaller than Zhou Yu. One is Wu Mi and the other is Qian Xiaobao. They often follow Zhou Yu in and out.

Once Zhou Yu took me to eat in the small restaurant in front of the school, Qian Xiaobao ran in in a hurry, took a look at me and was about to whisper to Zhou Yu, but he drank me and told me to go straight Say.Then Qian Xiaobao explained the whole story very quickly. It was probably who Wu Mi was fighting with. The other party called five or six people to block him. Qian Xiaobao ran back to call Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu's first reaction was to come to see me. I felt terrible when I heard it, but when he gritted his teeth and said "You go back to the dormitory first" and got up to leave, I grabbed his arm without thinking. .

He looked hesitant when he turned around, Qian Xiaobao was beside him in a hurry, saying that the boss would be beaten into a bear if he didn't go to find his son.

I don't know where I got the courage to impulsively say: "I'll go too!"

Zhou Yu raised his eyebrows, with a strange gleam in his eyes, he grabbed my wrist with his backhand and left.

When we ran there, Wu Mi had already been beaten bruised and swollen, and one of the senior boys was grabbing his collar and slapping him.Hearing an angry shout from Zhou Yu beside him, he rushed forward like an arrow.

This is the first time I have personally witnessed Zhou Yu fighting with others, and the last time I did not count the hasty glance.

Scared!
In my bewildered state at the time, only these two words can describe myself.

Zhou Yu was very good at punching, and he could almost knock down one with one punch. He was hit sometimes, but he avoided his face. The three of them beat five or six boys in the senior class to the ground.

Although I still feel scared, I also feel a sense of pride at this time.

After kicking one of them away, Zhou Yu turned to look at me, her eyebrows raised, and her energetic appearance was indeed cool and handsome.But seeing him suddenly widen his eyes in surprise, his mouth opened and closed as if shouting something.

Strange, not far away, why can't I hear clearly?

Something slipped from my forehead, I reached out to wipe it, my hand was full of blood.Only then did the pain nerves reach the brain, and slowly turning around, a boy with a sullen face was holding a brick, and the red on the brick was like blood.

The moment he fell down, what he saw was Zhou Yu's frightened face.

I had five stitches in my head.

The incident was so serious that the school must have notified my parents. I was already lying on the hospital bed when my parents rushed to the hospital.

Hearing my father's roar and my mother's cry in the corridor, my father has always loved me like a treasure, and he must be furious when this happened to me.

It took a while to hear Zhou Yu's voice drifting in. He spoke in a low voice, and with my head hurting, I couldn't hear clearly.But after that day, I didn't see him come to the hospital to see me again. Instead, my classmates and teachers all came to condolences.

Wu Mi and Qian Xiaobao also came, pretending to be boys from our class.

When I took my mother to soak in the water, Wu Mi first apologized to me, saying that it was all because of him that I was hit on the head.I asked Zhou Yu why he didn't come, and the two looked at each other, then looked outside the door, and then said that my parents didn't allow him to come.

It turned out to be the case.

Zhou Yu couldn't come, but sent Qian Xiaobao to deliver fruits and food every day. Once or twice was fine, but when he came here for a week, my mother felt strange and asked why this boy had such a good relationship with me.

Zhou Yu had already thought of the reason for me: Qian Xiaobao was the class representative arranged by the teacher to visit me.

This is also the reason why Qian Xiaobao was sent here. He is relatively short, like my classmates.My mother didn't suspect it after hearing it, and Qian Xiaobao basically left after giving it away, so he didn't ask any more questions.

After almost a week, my mother will not stay with me in the hospital all the time. She has to go back to work and will come after get off work.As soon as Qian Xiaobao learned of the news, Zhou Yu swaggered back the next day as soon as his mother left.

As soon as he came, he took my hand, with regret in his eyes: "Jia Xiaoru, does it hurt?"

I nodded honestly, the first few days of those stitches were so painful I couldn't sleep at night.

"It's all my fault. If I knew it earlier, I shouldn't have taken you there."

I was silent for a while and asked, "If I had known my head would break, would you still fight?"

Pain appeared on Zhou Yu's face, as if he was the one who broke his head, and he gritted his teeth and said loudly: "I will quit the world from now on, and if I beat me again, I will be my grandson!"

I was thinking - what is Jianghu?

From that day on, he was the one who came to bring me food and drinks. He always came in when my mother was going to work, and it was a good time to leave before my mother came.I asked him if he didn't want to go back to class?He squeaked and said that he would not use it for the time being.

It turned out that he was decried by the school because of my head-breaking incident. Fortunately, his father gave the school a sponsorship fee, so it didn't matter.His father asked the school for half a month's leave, saying that he should stay at home and think about his mistakes.

I looked at him suspiciously: "Your dad will still ask you for leave?"

In my impression, his parents have rarely seen him since they opened the factory, and sure enough, he laughed and said: "Let my brother pretend to be my father's leave." I was stunned for a while, and asked stupidly: "Which brother are you?" what?"

"Of course it's the boss. Jia Xiaoru, did you get knocked out of your head? Can the second child pretend to be my father? I can only ask the boss for help." Zhou Yu looked at me like an idiot.

I know that the eldest of their family, Zhou Nian, is ten years older than him, and it is said that he has gone abroad to study.Their second child, Zhou Liang, is only two years older than Zhou Yu, and is still in high school.In the era of family planning, both Zhou Liang and Zhou Yu were fined for being overborn.

It may be Zhou Yu who said that the horse stumbled.

One afternoon, Zhou Yu was listening to MP3 by my hospital bed, and gave me a headset plug, and my mother just walked in.When he saw our situation, he pulled his face down and scolded: "What are you doing?"

Zhou Yu was so frightened that he slid off the chair, jumped up just as he fell to the ground, and his face flushed red after being caught: "Auntie, why did you leave work so early?"

I screamed in my heart, but my mother heard the voice: "Xiaoyu, did you sneak here while I was going to work? How did you promise to come here with me and your uncle?"

"Mom..." Just as I was about to speak, my mother scolded me: "Shut up!"

Zhou Yu immediately gave up, stood in front of me and said, "Auntie, don't scold Jia Xiaoru, I insisted on coming here. I was wrong. I promised you and uncle not to look for Jia Xiaoru until the holidays. "

His mother's face sank like water, and she said to him sternly, "Then what are you still doing here?"

"I'll leave immediately." Zhou Yu took off the MP3 headset and threw it beside me, then ran away without looking back.

I stiffly pulled the ear wires, not daring to meet my mother's eyes, feeling very guilty.

"Tell me honestly, when did Xiaoyu come here?"

"The day before yesterday."

I heard my mother's gasp, and I felt anxious and thought I was going to scold me severely.Unexpectedly, after she sat down in the chair next to her, she picked up the MP3 that Zhou Yu left behind and listened to it, and then poured it out: "I confiscated this thing for the time being, and I will return it to you when the holiday is over. I told you too, at school During this period, you are not allowed to go with Xiaoyu. The same is true of the old Zhou family. They only care about making money and doing business and don’t even care about their children. Xiaoyu is now in a rebellious period. I hope this incident can make him repent and focus on studying. "

Listening to my mother scolding Zhou Yu, I will not foolishly pick up this chaff and get angry.

The next day, my father came to do the discharge procedures for me. The stitches on my head had been removed, but the hair in that tuft was shaved off.Dad saw that I was covering my head and was ashamed to see others, so he bought me a peaked cap at the hospital entrance.

On the way to send me to school, my dad saw that I was depressed all the time, so he took out two coins from his trouser pocket, one was worth one yuan, and the other was worth fifty cents.No matter how I guessed, I couldn't guess which hand the correct coin was in. I was amazed when he lost both coins, and what was even more surprising was that he asked me to look in my pocket. As soon as I reached into my pocket, I felt the coin.

Grabbing the two coins and looking at the front and back, then asked Dad with glowing eyes: What kind of trick is this?
Dad shook his head, he said: This is not a trick, it is magic.

That was the first magic I came into contact with, and it was also the first time I heard the term "magic".

It was only later that I found out that on the day when I was discharged from the hospital, my father quit his job in the factory and joined a circus to perform magic tricks. My mother quarreled with him countless times over this, but she never won back his heart.

When I went back to school, nothing changed except that Zhou Yu didn’t come to look for me. He also kept his promise and didn’t come to me before the holiday.So I asked Qian Xiaobao to give me a wine-red beret, which was warmer and more beautiful than the peaked cap my dad bought, and I wore it all winter.

During the winter vacation, Zhou Yu appeared again.

In fact, although the building of his family is still in the village, they no longer live here. In the city, their family has already bought a house, and his grandmother's house is also in the city.But this winter, he ran back alone. He walked up to my door for the first two days, and came directly on the third day, saying that he would do winter homework with me.

My mother felt sorry for him living alone and no one to take care of him, so she left him to eat at my house.

In the past, he was used to eating and drinking, and he didn't treat himself as an outsider at all. After just a day, he came every day.But the advantage of having him around is that I can ask him about my homework if I don't know how to do it. Don't look at his impatience, he is quite patient in solving problems for me.

On the day of the New Year's Eve, Zhou Yu's elder brother and second elder brother also returned to the village. They came to catch Zhou Yu and return to the city to celebrate the New Year.

Zhou Nian brought a lot of things to my house, saying that he was grateful for taking care of Zhou Yu for so many days. His conversation and attitude seemed to me to be as calm as an adult.Instead, it was Zhou Yu's second brother, Zhou Liang, who walked around our house with a smile on his face, and then asked with a click of his tongue, "I mean third child, what attracts you to such a crappy place?"

He glanced at me again, and said something inexplicable: Or is it because you don't care about drinking?

I saw Zhou Yu blushing suddenly, and felt even more inexplicable.

Later Zhou Yu followed his brother away, and never saw each other until school started.

In the first half of the semester, I didn't realize it at first, but my deskmate asked: Is Zhou Yu getting better with Wei Lai from his class?

Only then did I suddenly realize that apart from seeing Zhou Yu on the first day of school, I hadn't seen anyone else since then.

I learned from my deskmate that I often see him eating in the cafeteria with Wei Lai recently. I can no longer wear a hat because it is spring, and I feel that the hair on the scar on my head is not full. , so I haven't bumped into it once.

At noon, I intentionally went to the cafeteria with my roommates to eat. Not long after I bought the meal and sat down, my deskmate pulled my sleeves and reminded me in a low voice: "Zhou Yu is here."

As soon as I looked up, I saw Zhou Yu walking in with a few people talking and laughing.I know Wu Mi and Qian Xiaobao, but the girl who is very close to Zhou Yu... I seem to have seen it too.

The deskmate said: She is Wei Lai.

Zhou Yu looked at me after being pushed by Qian Xiaobao, his eyes fixed on me, thinking he would come over, but in the next moment he turned his head away, as if he didn't see me.

I felt an inexplicable sense of loss.

It felt like there was a piece of candy in his pocket all the time, but now that piece of candy melted away, it was just as uncomfortable.

Turning back, I happened to meet the mocking eyes of the tablemate who had no time to hide it, and suddenly I was startled, and the tablemate was also embarrassed, and said to me embarrassingly: "Who made you look so self-satisfied when you were with Zhou Yu in the past, but now that you are Someone else took it."

I was stunned, never thought that I would look like this in the eyes of my classmates.

Later, when I went to the cafeteria, I went there alone, and I gradually understood one thing——Zhou Yu was alienating me.

Since that day, I stopped eating in the cafeteria. I either asked my roommate to bring it to me or bought some instant noodles or bread to eat in the dormitory.It made me discover a strange thing. Although my academic performance was pretty good in the class last semester, I was not very popular with the girls. The girls were not close to me, but this semester I got closer to the female classmates. The deskmate also sent me a small note to apologize later.

Dazzling to the end of the term, the most talked about among the students is not the final exam, but the senior high school entrance examination in the third year of junior high school.When I heard Zhou Yu's name being discussed again, I was very calm and even participated in the topic.

A year of junior high school life has taught me that to integrate into this group, you have to be the same as everyone else, there is nothing special.

Three days after the senior high school entrance examination, the first and second grades were on holiday. I packed up my things the day before and was about to ride my bicycle home. I didn’t expect to see Zhou Yu wandering by the door of the dormitory as soon as I arrived downstairs.

He frowned, thinking that he might be waiting for Wei Lai.

Just as if he didn't see him walking out with his schoolbag on his back, he didn't look sideways when he passed him, but he heard a whisper from behind: "Jia Xiaoru."

I paused and turned around, feeling unfamiliar when I opened my mouth: "What's the matter?"

His eyes sank, he glanced at the schoolbag on my back and asked without answering: "Are you going home?" I nodded, "School is on holiday for three days." He walked up, his black eyes fixed on me , "Can you not go back?"

I was about to open my mouth to refuse, but he preempted me and said, "I'm going to take the senior high school entrance exam tomorrow, and I won't be in this school after the exam. Can you stay with me to study at school? Otherwise, I won't be able to make up my mind to do the questions."

If it was other requests, I might refuse, but this is related to his senior high school entrance examination. Even though the relationship between the two of them has become estranged this semester, I still hesitated.My hesitation was taken as consent by him, and he came over and took my shoulders and walked towards the school gate, and took off the schoolbag on my back and put it on his shoulders.

Turning his head sideways, he saw that the corners of his mouth were raised and his eyes were bright.

I can't help but wonder, why does he act as if the alienation of this semester doesn't exist? Also, I just remembered at this moment, shouldn't it be more suitable for him to go to Wei Lai to revise for the high school entrance examination?

Since the first and second grades were on holiday, there was no one in the dormitory at night, so I made an appointment with Zhou Yu to go to the classroom to review.

During the three-day vacation, the teacher assigned a lot of homework, and I immersed myself in homework as soon as I entered the classroom.After I had been working for a long time, I raised my head and glanced to the side. Zhou Yu was sitting at the table next to me, thinking about the problem with a pen in his mouth.

It's rare to see him so focused and serious. Looking at him carefully, it seems that his hair has grown a bit, his temples have covered his ears a bit, and he seems to be a little taller than before when he sits upright.

"Jia Xiaoru, if you keep staring at me like this, I won't be able to solve the problem anymore."

It was very embarrassing to peek at the caught bag, and my face turned red immediately. When I looked down and looked down at my homework, I couldn't concentrate for a while, and my heart was beating like thunder.At last Zhou Yu didn't make fun of me again, and the room became quiet again.

The lights will be turned off at 08pm, and we left the classroom at 30:[-].When I walked back to the door of the dormitory, Zhou Yu suddenly reached out and rubbed my head, fingertips were touching the scar, "Does it still hurt?"

I shook my head, of course it doesn't hurt anymore, it's been so long.

"I have an exam tomorrow, please tell me something nice."

I thought for a while, "I wish you success in the high school entrance examination." Hearing this, he sneered, "So official?"

What should I say?Turning around in my mind, I changed to a down-to-earth one: "Zhou Gongjin, do well in the exam."

He raised his eyebrows: "Zhou Gongjin?"

I couldn't help but pursed my lips and smiled, there was the Battle of Chibi in the Three Kingdoms, and Su Shi wrote "Nian Nujiao" Chibi nostalgia.

Deliberately shaking his head and reciting the verse——

The great river goes east, the waves wash away, and there are romantic figures through the ages. ?
Therefore, to the west of the rampart, the humanity is, the Three Kingdoms Zhou Lang Chibi.

Zhou Lang's name is Zhou Yu, and his style name is Gongjin.

I thought of him immediately when I was reading a book or studying in a textbook. Who made him happen to have the same name as this ancient hero.

Zhou Yu, Zhou Gongjin.

I think it's fun to call him in such a joking manner.

This was my thought at the time, and then...later, it became a habit.

Zhou Yu took the high school exam for three days, and I served as an accompanying exam for three days.

When I asked him how he was doing in the exam, he would always raise his eyebrows and ask me back: Don't you look at who is standing in front of you?

After finishing the last physics test in the afternoon of the third day, Zhou Yu was released.I was waiting for him downstairs in the dormitory, and saw him walking with some classmates talking and laughing from a distance. Wu Mi and Qian Xiaobao saw me first, and pushed him with their shoulders.

Zhou Yu turned his eyes and saw me, the girl beside him suddenly pulled his arm, stood on tiptoe and whispered something to him, only to see that his brows and eyes were curled up, his smile was gentle and drizzle, and the spring breeze was rippling.

When a group of people came to the front, the smile in Zhou Yu's eyes was still there, Qian Xiaobao asked first: "Jia Xiaoru, let's go outside to celebrate the liberation of the revolution, shall we go together?"

I glanced at Zhou Yu and the girl beside him, and shook my head: "No, I have to go home, you guys go."

"Ah? Why go home, that's so boring." Qian Xiaobao was regretful.

I laughed for a while and didn't make a sound. After a while, I felt quite boring, so I turned around and walked to the dormitory.

When I was about to reach the steps, my hand was grabbed from behind, "Why don't you go together?" Zhou Yu chased up and asked.

The frown showed that its owner was not in a happy mood, so I hesitated and said, "I'm going home."

He withdrew his hand embarrassingly, and muttered: "Disappointing." Turning around, he reminded: "Then you ride carefully on the road when you go back."

Zhou Yu left with his classmates, but I didn't go home.

I didn't go home for three days on vacation, how could I rush back to class tomorrow?It was a lame lie, and Zhou Yu believed it.

Originally, there were still third-year students in the girls' dormitory building, but today I left after the exam, and I was the only one left in the whole building, and there was no teacher in the cafeteria at night.I had to stay in the dormitory eating instant noodles, and suddenly felt uncomfortable while eating, and tears rolled into the noodles.

The instant noodles lost their original flavor and I threw it in the trash.He took the book and wanted to go to the classroom, but when he went downstairs to see the dark place of the black Yue Yue, he dared not leave, stomped his feet and returned to the dormitory.

If it didn't take five or ten minutes to go home by bike, I really wanted to go back immediately, it would be better than staying alone in school.

But the good times didn't last long, the electricity in the dormitory was pulled off by the aunt, and when it suddenly became dark, I jumped up from the chair, and I couldn't see my fingers all at once, and all kinds of bad thoughts came out of my mind.In the silence, I could even hear my own breathing. When I accidentally bumped into something, there was a loud bang and I screamed. I no longer dared to stay in the dormitory alone.

When I went downstairs in the dark, my feet were soft, and I always felt that there was someone behind me.When I got out of the building, I turned around immediately after the street lights illuminated it. The darkness always gives people infinite imagination. I only felt that the dormitory building was like a huge mouth opened by a monster, which made me run out.

The school can't stay any longer, at least there are street lights outside the school, and the shops on both sides are also illuminated by lights.

Passing by the restaurant I frequented before, my eyes couldn't help drifting in, I searched around but didn't see a familiar figure, and looked away lonely.Turning around, I saw them in a restaurant diagonally opposite.

Zhou Yu was sitting sideways by the window, and was the most eye-catching among the people at that table.

There was a girl sitting beside him, and his slender arms were resting on the back of the other's chair, as if he was half-embracing her in his arms.I know the girl's name, Wei Lai.

I stood there for a long time, but no one noticed me.After thinking about it for a while, he raised his foot and walked into the restaurant.

When they saw me appear, many people who knew me subconsciously turned their heads to look at Zhou Yu, and Zhou Yu stood up from his seat with wide-eyed eyes, "Why didn't you go home?"

I didn't look at anyone else, just stared into his eyes and asked, "Zhou Yu, can you take me home?"

When Zhou Yu's classmates who had abandoned the table accompanied me out of the restaurant, I glanced back, and Wei Lai was looking at us.

Walking back to the school gate, Zhou Yu asked me to push the cart.

When I came out pushing the red bike, I saw that he also pushed a blue mountain bike. Before I could ask him, he showed off first: "How is it? Is it cool?"

"Is it new?"

"I bought it a long time ago, but you didn't find out." He deliberately said in an aggrieved tone.

I replied to him: "You didn't give me a chance to see it."

He was a stranger for the whole semester, and he didn't take the initiative to talk to me until the senior high school entrance examination. I blamed me for not discovering that he bought a new car.

He laughed twice, "Are you angry?"

I got on the bike and kicked off first, and he quickly caught up and asked in a slightly nervous voice, "Are you really angry?"

Not to mention angry, but feeling depressed in my heart.

Seeing that I was silent, he deliberately changed the topic again: "Are we really going to ride back? It's already past eight o'clock, and it will be nine o'clock when we get home. Can your mother open the door for you?"

I thought about it, and it was indeed quite late. When I went back and knocked on the door, it would definitely open, but my mother must ask me why I went back so late.

"Then what should I do?" I had no idea.

In the dark, I heard him suggest: "Why don't you come to my house and stay overnight?"

His new home in town?I shook my head without thinking.

"Why?" he asked puzzled.

No reason, just don't want to go.

He turned his head in embarrassment, and after the two of them rode in silence for a while, I suddenly stopped with a brake.He didn't notice it for a while, and after riding for more than ten meters, he realized that I hadn't followed. When he looked back, he immediately stepped on the brakes, and asked loudly, "What's wrong?"

"Let's go back to the dormitory."

"Ah? Didn't you say there was a power outage? Are you not afraid?"

I gritted my teeth: "Go to the small shop in front of the school and buy a flashlight."

The two rode back again, and when they passed the street at the back gate of the school, Zhou Yu suddenly suggested, "Why don't we go to the Internet cafe all night."

I was very excited when I entered the Internet cafe for the first time. I waited beside Zhou Yu when he turned on the machine. He seemed to be very familiar with the network administrator, and he quickly brought two cards over.Leading me to walk inside familiarly, I couldn't help asking in a low voice: "Have you been here?"

"of course?"

What Zhou Yu took me into was a private room, and there were only two separate seats, and I sat in that seat inside.

It's not that I haven't touched a computer before, and the school has computer classes, but it's the first time I come to the Internet cafe. We should not be able to enter this place at our age.I don't know what to do when I turn on the machine. There are various games on the desktop, which I have never played.

Zhou Yu asked me from the side: "Do you have QQ?"

I froze for a moment, nodded: "Yes."

"Then add friends."

I couldn't help laughing when I saw his screen name—it's okay to put cattle.

Mine was called "Xiao Ruzi", but he laughed and said "Xiao Ruzi" was like a eunuch's name.He said he would teach me how to play games, but I saw that he played two games and found it boring, so he didn't want to play, so he chatted with his friends on QQ.

I seldom surf the Internet, and the friend column is almost empty. When the profile picture of a stranger jumps up in the lower right corner, I open it suspiciously. I see that the name is "It's okay to put cattle".Turning my head to look around, I saw Zhou Yuzheng also winking at me twice.

—Who are you chatting with?
— with friends.

——Male and female?
--male.

——I went online with you, and you still chat with men?

—Aren’t you a man?

"Hey, Jia Xiaoru, I don't want you to play tricks like this." Zhou Yu yelled from the side, and then typed in the dialog box: Am I just your friend?
Am I kidding him?It's true that I'm only chatting with him. If it's not called a friend, what should it be called?Neighbor?

Zhou Yu gave me an angry emoticon, her avatar turned gray and she went offline.

Peeking at him, I found that he went to play games again, and his face was a little dark.

I didn't understand why he was angry. I didn't eat much instant noodles at night, but now I feel hungry again when I smell the aroma of instant noodles outside.When I looked out frequently, Zhou Yu raised his head and turned around, "What are you doing?"

"I want to go out and buy food."

He frowned, "You haven't eaten yet? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" After questioning, he got up from his chair, left the word "waiting" and ran out.I saw a monster beating him on the game screen over there. I hesitated and reached out to move the mouse to run away, but the game screen turned black and white for some reason. After a daze, I realized that his character was dead.

Zhou Yu came back with two bowls of instant noodles, and when he put them down, he shouted out in frustration, "Why did I die?"

I pretended to look with a guilty conscience, "What's dead?"

He widened his eyes and asked me, "Has anyone touched my machine?"

Honestly shook his head, seeing him so angry, he didn't dare to be honest.He kicked the table and said with great annoyance, "I've practiced the level for a month in vain."

In a fit of anger...he didn't do anything, he just ate up the instant noodles in one go.

Obviously someone who has eaten at a restaurant, why does he look hungrier than me who didn't eat?

Later, he was not in the mood to play that game anymore, so he started a small game to play flying chess with me. At first, the two of them were quite excited to play, but gradually they both started to yawn.I couldn't open my eyes at the back, and when I turned around, I found that he had fallen asleep in the chair, so I leaned over and closed my eyes, feeling my body moving in a vague way, but I didn't go because I was too sleepy. Tube.

When I woke up, I was woken up by the network administrator, and the overnight card was only available until 6 am.

I opened my eyes in a daze and turned my head to see Zhou Yu's face close at hand. After being stunned, I sat up suddenly and found that I was originally sleeping in the chair, but now I was moved to the small sofa behind the chair lie down.

And Zhou Yu put the two chairs together and slept next to me.

When I met this person for the first time, I felt flustered.

When he turned over from the sofa and landed on the ground, his heart was almost jumping into his throat, and he kept his movements to the lightest, not daring to make a sound. When he stood on the ground, he looked back and saw his eyelashes fluttering twice, as if he was about to wake up... …

Then, I ran.

Zhou Yu asked me if I still remember the year of the high school entrance examination?
I really don't remember much, I just remember that the wind that day was hot, and it made my face flush.
