To rely on others is to promise each other

Chapter 13 Rose

Cheng Guo lowered his head and was bored for a long time before holding back a thank you, Jiang Yubai laughed out loud: "You're welcome, did they return your money to you later?"

Cheng Guo thought for a while and said, "Repay it."

"If I were you, I'd give him more that time, enough for two thousand, and send him to the detention center." Jiang Yubai taught him, "Next time, remember better, and if force is not enough to solve the problem, use legal means."

Cheng Guo nodded hurriedly, Jiang Yubai lowered his head to return Pei Shanqing's message, and when he looked up, he saw his face flushed from suffocation, and asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you?"

Cheng Guo asked him in a low voice, "Is there anyone you like?"

Jiang Yubai was startled for a moment by his sudden question, and then said, "Yes, don't get me."

Cheng Guo scratched his head, moved closer, and said, "Then how do you get close to the person you like? I don't even know how to communicate with him."

Jiang Yubai wanted to say: I just live in his house, do I still try my best to get close?But fearing that Cheng Guo would be frightened by being too shocking, he still said, "Just contact normally."

Cheng Guo obviously didn't understand what he meant, so he spread his hands to signal him to speak more clearly, Jiang Yubai cleared his throat: "If you want to be a lover, you must first be a brother, do you understand?"

Cheng Guo nodded half-understood, and Jiang Yubai said again: "If you have the awareness to dedicate yourself to love, you should do it when it's time to do it."

Cheng Guo nodded again, and asked back, "But I don't know if he likes me or not."

"Trying, you are always waving in front of him, and one day he will not be able to bear it."

Cheng Guo was silent for a moment, and asked with some frustration: "Then what should he do if he doesn't like me? What if he thinks I'm not good?"

"You have to have the confidence that I'm the best, and I'm the one who deserves him the most. If you don't like it..." Jiang Yu stalked, and said, "Just try to make him like you. "

Cheng Guo felt that what he had said was the same as if he hadn't said it, but it must be said that Jiang Yubai's psychological hypnosis really made him feel a lot better. The two of them spent the whole week together in the library until they finished writing the exercise book.

Jiang Yubai stretched his waist, and suggested: "Don't be bored here, go to the nearby cafe, and I'll treat you to coffee."

"Okay." Cheng Guo pushed his glasses, put away his books, and followed Jiang Yubai away.

There are two kittens in this cafe, and they have been circling around their feet since they entered the door. Jiang Yubai doesn't like cats very much, so he sat down at the bar to order with a calm expression, and Cheng Guo sat next to him. He patted the kitten's chin.

The cat purred from its throat, and narrowed its eyes comfortably. Jiang Yubai nodded, and propped his chin to look at the scenery outside the window. Another cat crawled around in the space between his elbows. don't care.

The muted cell phone turned on and off, but Jiang Yubai only calculated in his mind how many days it would be before Pei Shanqing could come back, and he didn't even realize that the person in his mind was standing in front of him.

"Why don't you talk? Are you stupid?" Pei Shanqing said with a smile, his eyes turned between him and the cat, and finally fixed on his face: "Like cats?"

Only then did Jiang Yubai come to his senses, holding the cat in his arms with one hand and tugging at the tight collar with the other, he raised his head and called him, "Brother."

Cheng Guo on the side saw it and felt puzzled, but he didn't say anything, he picked up his cup and took a sip of coffee.

Pei Shanqing smiled and patted his head, sat down next to him, and asked, "Why didn't you answer the phone?"

"I didn't see it when the phone was muted." Jiang Yubai said, "How did you find me?"

Pei Shanqing raised the shared location on the WeChat interface: "You opened it this morning when you said you were going to go out, but you didn't close it all the time. You just followed the navigation to find it. Are you stupid?"

There was a smile on the corner of Jiang Yubai's lips, and he seemed to lean on him unintentionally, showing him the kitten in his arms: "Its fur is very soft, do you want to pet it?"

Pei Shanqing took a closer look at the kitten's raised head, and shook his head: "It's so sticky, you should like you, I dare not touch it, lest it lose its temper and scratch me."

Jiang Yubai chuckled, took Pei Shanqing's hand gently, and led him to stroke the kitten's back twice: "This way it won't scratch you, doesn't it feel good?"

Pei Shanqing didn't answer, but raised his hand a little, then grabbed Jiang Yubai's hand and rubbed his fingertips against the back of his hand: "I bought you a small gift."

"what?"

Pei Shanqing took out a beautifully packaged pure black gift box from his jacket pocket, which contained a quartz watch.He rolled up a small piece of his sleeve and pushed it up, exposing his smooth and delicate wrist, and then put the watch on for him.

"Do you like it?" Pei Shanqing asked.

Jiang Yubai said: "I like it very much, thank you brother."

Cheng Guo drank the coffee in the cup silently, stood up and said to the two, "Jiang Yubai, I'm going back first."

Only then did Pei Shanqing notice him, and immediately said: "Are you in a hurry to go home? I was thinking about taking you two to dinner later, why don't you go back after dinner?"

Cheng Guo thought: Why do I feel full even before I have eaten?Said politely on the face: "No, thank you Brother Pei, I'll go back first."

Pei Shanqing still wanted to say something to make him stay, but Jiang Yu Baiguo broke his mouth: "Don't you have to go back to collect the quilt, I will treat you to dinner another day, bye."

Cheng Guo left in a logical manner, Pei Shanqing was silent for a moment, and pointed to the cloudless sunny day outside the window: "Do you need to pack the quilt in this weather?"

"He's rather strange." Jiang Yu said without blushing, "Let's go eat, I'm a little hungry."

The two went to a nearby business district, and while they were waiting for the food, they chatted about Pei Shanqing's somewhat bumpy internship process. When it came to embarrassing places, Pei Shanqing kept silent and beckoned Jiang Yubai to sit over, and tied him with a small rubber band. Good for his hair.

During the meal, Pei Shanqing suddenly mentioned his study: "How are you studying now? If you don't go to school, do you need to enroll in a cram school?"

"No, just pass the senior high school entrance examination next semester." Jiang Yubai said.

"Then do you want to consider going to another place to go to high school?" Pei Shanqing asked: "I don't mind if you want to change your environment, but you have to tell me in advance that when I look for a job after graduation, I have to consider the location to take care of you. .”

"It's okay, just here." After Jiang Yubai finished speaking, he looked up at Pei Shanqing and asked, "Brother, do you want to work in other places?"

"If you're here, I'm sure I won't go, but it's inevitable that I'll have to go on a business trip." Pei Shanqing said.

Jiang Yubai is an insecure child, which is why he has to lie on his bed every night and refuses to leave. After hearing Pei Shanqing's answer, he is naturally not completely relieved, but rather depressed.Seeing this, Pei Shanqing didn't bring up the matter again, and the bed-changing matter was forgotten by both of them.

They kept squeezing until the end of Jiang Yubai's high school entrance examination. It was a rainy Saturday. Pei Shanqing sat in the car, his anxious eyes fell on the closed school gate of the examination room from time to time, frequently checking the current time.

After the bell rang suddenly, scattered students came out of the teaching building, and the waiting parents rushed forward, asking about the difficulty of the test questions with concern.

Pei Shanqing got out of the car, holding a pure black umbrella, and didn't move forward, just stood on the steps and looked down at the accumulated rainwater flowing down the ground.

"Pei Shanqing."

A pair of dark blue canvas shoes appeared in sight, followed by pure white sweatpants and half sleeves. Jiang Yubai took off his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and a few locks of hair around his ears fell down with his movements.

Pei Shanqing raised his hand and pinned the broken hair back to his ear, and asked, "Aren't you called brother outside?"

Jiang Yubai said with a smile: "There are so many brothers outside, I can't tell who they are calling. But if you call Pei Shanqing, you are calling my brother alone."

"Slick tongue." Pei Shanqing commented: "Get in the car and take you to dinner."

The car was unable to move an inch on the crowded road, the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, the raindrops gradually formed a large patch on the car window, the wiper was swinging unremittingly, there was no music in the car, but even the sound of breathing could be heard in the noisy rain Not very clear.

"It's raining too much, let's go home and eat." Jiang Yubai said.

Pei Shanqing was stunned for a moment, looked at the long motorcade ahead, and said, "Okay, I'll take you out tomorrow."

Jiang Yubai leaned his arms on the car window and asked, seemingly unintentionally, "I just saw someone come out of the examination room and collect flowers. It's pretty pretty."

"Oh? Then what kind of flowers do you like?" Pei Shanqing understood what he meant, and asked along, only to realize that it was a little strange after asking.

"Did you think I would say that I like everything you gave me?" Jiang Yubai asked with a smile, and after getting the acquiescence, he said, "Actually, I like roses, but it might be a bit strange to say it."

While talking, the green light turned on, the car restarted, and slowly passed by a beautifully decorated flower shop, the delicate flowers in the flower garden outside kept nodding in the rain, and the raindrops on the branches and leaves fell.

Pei Shanqing has never said whether to send it or not, but Jiang Yubai vaguely already has the answer in his heart, so naturally he won't ask for trouble, and quietly nests in the co-pilot.

The completely free summer vacation came quietly, but Jiang Yubai didn't feel relaxed. Instead, he was always worried that Pei Shanqing would bring up the matter of changing the bed again, and even worried about sending flowers.

That day when Pei Shanqing said he was going out, Jiang Yubai asked him what he was doing but didn't get an answer.After the sound of the door closing, he sat on the sofa and tried to persuade himself: It doesn't matter, the revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard.

... Still can't figure it out.

Jiang Yubai became more and more anxious while waiting for him to go home, like a prisoner waiting to be sentenced, guessing the judge's intentions and the next torture.

In the evening, Pei Shanqing came back, holding an open white gift box in his hand, with a large bouquet of Scottish green roses inserted in it, the petals in full bloom.

"I went for an interview today, but I didn't succeed. Maybe I'm considering starting my own business." Pei Shanqing said, "I passed by a flower shop and saw this kind of roses, so I bought them for you."

Jiang Yubai took the late bouquet of roses, and Pei Shanqing stepped forward to give him a hug: "Just to add, happy graduation."

Jiang Yubai nestled in his arms and couldn't help thinking crookedly: He said it as if, for newlyweds who are going to have a hard time in the early days of starting a business, the husband will send a bouquet of flowers to his wife in advance to show his loyalty. The subtext is to hope you don't dislike me poverty.

How could you dislike it?It's too late to like it.
