Chapter 21 Chocolate

After winter, the north is getting drier, and the wind sounds dry.

After school the next night, Yu Youle did not see Mu Yan coming to pick him up.After returning home, he endured not going to the sixth floor, read and did the exercises until twelve o'clock, and then went to bed.

Before going to school in the morning, he deliberately took a piece of chocolate and climbed up to the sixth floor and put it on the mailbox.After thinking about it, I found a post-it note from my schoolbag that I bought specially to leave a message for Mu Yan, and wrote, "Eating sweets will improve your mood." After writing, I drew a few notes on the back.He pressed the note under the chocolate, turned around and went downstairs, went down to the fifth floor, folded it back and crumpled the note into his pocket.

Mu Yan never said that he was in a bad mood.

Taking the bus to school is different from the route of cycling, and the surrounding scene is novel. Yu Yule feels that he should be happy, but for some reason, he is depressed and uneasy.

After arriving at school, he found the list in the book and added one at the end.Take the bus together.

After the morning class, he silently decided to talk to Mu Yan after returning home from school.

After the bicycle incident, the atmosphere between them was a little unclear.He couldn't figure out what Mu Yan was thinking, and vaguely felt that the other party was dissatisfied because he refused to accept the bicycle, so he fell into the predicament of self-blame, afraid that his clumsy way failed Mu Yan's good intentions, and he was also afraid that he would be unhappy .

Throughout the day, Yu Yule preset the content of many conversations, including self-explanation and apology.The moment he ran up to the sixth floor after school and saw the mailbox, he realized that his preparations were in vain.Chocolate didn't move.

He knocked on the door, but no one answered.

Kneeling down against the door, he found a gap in the opposite door. He didn't know whether the door was broken or someone had entered and exited.He waited at the door for nearly an hour, went downstairs and went home.

After returning home, he has been sitting by the window of the living room. He doesn't know where Mu Yan will go and what he will do. He only thinks that he will see that person when he comes back.When it was beyond the usual sleeping time, he took out his mobile phone and edited the message for Mu Yan. He wrote and changed it, changed it and deleted it, and finally sent only one sentence.

"It's late, aren't you coming back tonight?"

After a while, two words came back from there, "Business trip."

Looking at those two words, Yu Yule gradually lost focus. He wanted to ask where he was going on a business trip, and how many days he was going there, but he was afraid that Mu Yan would be annoyed, so he only replied, pay attention to safety.

Realizing that he was in an abnormal mood, he rubbed his face hard.He understood that he pinned too many emotions on Mu Yan, so he became dependent.He knew it would be a burden, but he still unconsciously leaned to one side.Perhaps it is because of this that Mu Yan has become cold towards him recently, not just because of the bicycle.

He annoyed Mu Yan.

After such thoughts appeared, Yu Youle suddenly couldn't help feeling uncomfortable.

As a neighbor, he not only went upstairs and downstairs to find Mu Yan every day, but also harassed him with his mobile phone from time to time.Ever since we met, he has purposely pulled Mu Yan to carry out the items on the list, but never considered his mood.Before, he always felt that Mu Yan had a bad temper, but when he thought about it carefully, he was also forgiving himself.

There are no more notifications on the phone.

In the days that followed, Yu Youle ran to the sixth floor after school, and would knock on the door again even if she saw the chocolate intact.But after a week, Mu Yan didn't come back.

During the period, the results of the monthly mock exam came out, and he got No.2 in the exam. Although there is still a gap with Yuan Jinghao, he has really improved.He wanted to send the report card to Mu Yan, but he hesitated all night before giving up.

Under the cover of negative emotions, Yu Yule couldn't help but believe that Mu Yan might not come back here after returning from a business trip.

In a blink of an eye, one quarter ends and the rent is due.The landlord's aunt lived in the building next door, and Yu Youle made a special trip after paying the rent.When I entered, there was a table of people playing mahjong in the living room.

The landlord opened the door and quickly ran back to his place, asking amidst the crackling sound, "What's the matter, Xiaoyu, I have received the rent, what's the problem?"

There were only four people in the room, which was already too much for Yu Le, so he stood at the door, holding the door frame, trying not to sound stuttering, "Auntie... I, I want to ask, my upstairs The person above, has he renewed the lease?"

The landlord recalled while touching the cards, "Oh, that young man...he moved in about a week earlier than you, his rent was paid by others before, and he hasn't paid it this quarter, but the deposit is still here...people I didn't contact me either, I don't know." She threw a card, "That's right, Xiao Yu, you have a new young man moving in upstairs, and I saw that the movement of moving in and out was not too small, and it wasn't too noisy. Bar?"

The family who moved in from across the door from Mu Yan seemed to be changing their furniture. Yu Youle had met people from the moving company, but he hadn't met the new neighbors yet.He shook his head, not knowing if the landlord saw it, he quietly backed away half a step, and then thought of the porch lamp, "By the way, auntie, thank you for finding someone to fix the lamp, it's much more convenient."

The landlord looked back at him, a little surprised, "Didn't you spend the money to repair it yourself? Why are you thanking me?" She turned around and joked with her poker friend, "As far as the property in our community is concerned, it's better to count on the lights when they come to repair it." I'm fine."

The four people in the room chatted enthusiastically, and no one paid attention to him for a while, Yu Youle closed the door silently, and went downstairs in a daze.

He walked to the field unconsciously.He and Mu Yan only played once after the ball rack was replaced. Although it was replaced with a new one, no one else patronized the place except them. The small court was still like a secret base for the two of them.

Because of the landlord's words, Yu Yule realized how stupid he was. A property that was too busy to manage the monitoring, how could he have the spare time and money to repair a broken stadium that no one cares about.

He suddenly wanted to know if Mu Yan did this because of him.But he didn't dare to ask, whether to deny or affirm, he didn't know how to react, and he was even more afraid that his poor reaction would make Mu Yan even more annoying.

But after this, he couldn't help regretting, if he had accepted the bicycle that day, would everything have been as usual, and he would see Mu Yan every day when he came back from school, and he would reply to his messages.

The musicians are absent, and the undirected noise gradually acts recklessly, rushing madly in the small chest cavity.After he drank several large glasses of water in an attempt to suppress him, he suddenly realized in frustration that Mu Yan's so-called business trip might just be a way of saying it so that leaving would not be embarrassing and blunt.

On the day Yu Yule started to suffer from insomnia, in the middle of the night, an unusual sound came from outside the window.The pulleys dragged across the floor tiles and weeds, gradually approaching from far to near, especially clear in the quiet winter night.

Hearing that voice, he jumped up from the bed and ran into the living room almost immediately. After seeing the tall and thin figure who was about to pass under the streetlight, he didn't even bother to put on his coat, and he opened the door and ran downstairs.

Mu Yan returned to Beijing after bumping for a long time, entered the community, dragged his suitcases to the front of the building, looked up at the small building, but unexpectedly found that the lights in the corridor inside the building were turned on from the fifth floor to the bottom.He watched silently as the light on the first floor shone faintly at his feet, and within three seconds, a figure ran out quickly and jumped on him.

The young man's soft skin hit the cold coat, and the cold metal buttons made him shrug his shoulders, but he still pressed against each other tightly, as if confessing and retaining, eagerly explaining, "I accept it, Mu Yan, I accept the bicycle, I'm sorry, it's my fault...I accept it."

Mu Yan was in the cold, but Yu Yule was only wearing a T-shirt and shorts. He frowned, subconsciously wrapped him in a coat, and at the same time realized that the child seemed to have misunderstood something, which was different from him.

Yu Yule took the opportunity to hug his waist tightly, but Nuan Yuanrong made his nose sore, "I thought you moved away." He suddenly raised his head and looked at Mu Yan with a stiff face, "Are you back... to pack your things? "

The child didn't let go of him while holding him, Mu Yan's face was serious, but his tone was unconsciously lighter, "Aren't you afraid of catching a cold, go upstairs first."

Yu Yule stared at him without moving, obsessed with an answer.

"No." Mu Yan still didn't move when he finished speaking, sighed silently, hugged him with one hand, patted his back with the other hand, and softly comforted him, "Really not."

After accidentally leaving the ground, Yu Yu Le immediately put his arms around Mu Yan's shoulders, and was carried upstairs by Mu Yan firmly. After passing the fifth floor, he hugged him even tighter, "I want to go to your place."

Mu Yan didn't intend to stop, and carried him home.After entering the bedroom, he stood by the switch without moving, and Yu Youle immediately received the instruction to turn on the light.Tucking the person into the quilt, he went to take a shower first, and then returned to the bedroom, only to find that the child was still awake and was turning his eyes to observe the ceiling.
