Lu Xiao felt something exploded in his heart, crackling like fireworks and leaving debris on the ground.

His head was numb and his heart was beating uncontrollably.

Those emotions just now were gone, and I had even forgotten my own purpose.

The mango taste in my mouth has not faded away, and the icy sweetness stretches from my mouth to my nose, so rich that it makes me unable to breathe.

For the first time, he realized that he could be caught.

"You..." He moved his lips, but was speechless when he saw Ye Cheng's eyes.

With those eyes staring at him, he could never think rationally.

Jiang Jin was silent as he typed the message: [Congratulations, you guessed it right, that smoothie was not given to Brother Xiao by the girl next door.]

Tan Xiaoqi:【?】

Jiang Jin: [Brother Cheng ordered it for him. 】

Tan Xiaoqi:【?!!】

Jiang Jin: [[Eating lemon]‌It’s sour.】

Jiang Jin: [Will your boyfriend give you some smoothies during evening study? If not, we can break up.]

Li Junxiao's roar came from the front row: "Jiang Jin, what are you doing to sow discord between us?"

Tan Xiaoqi hurriedly ran in from the door, and Jiang Jin was completely dumbfounded.

Li Junxiao rushed over and picked up Jiang Jin. The movement was so loud that Lu Xiao was pulled out of his wandering state.

The classroom was in chaos, and no one came around to watch the excitement.

Ten minutes later, the school bell rang.

Ye Cheng shouted twice on the podium to maintain order and let everyone go to their seats.

Li Junxiao almost got into a fight with Jiang Jin. The two of them spilled the books on the table all over the floor, and the class was discussing it with gusto.

Lu Xiao's cell phone vibrated and received a message from Tan Xiaoqi.

[I'm sorry, Brother Yi, don't be angry. I didn't mean to ask Jiang Jin about his love. I promise I didn't mean any harm. 】

Li Junxiao asked Jiang Jin why he sent her the love affair between Lu Xiao and Ye Cheng and also instigated them to break up.

Tan Xiaoqi was embarrassed and scratched her toes on the ground, so she could only bite the bullet and explain to the real owner.

Lu Xiao was not angry, and even a little curious.

Suspect x:【Do you have a crush on Ye Cheng?】

In his mind, only those who have a crush on Ye Cheng would pay so much attention to his every move.

Tan Xiaoqi was so frightened that she almost threw her phone away and typed tremblingly: [No, no, absolutely not!]

Who is the one who demolishes the house with his own hands even though he is using CP? Is she crazy?

Suspect x:【Then you have a crush on me?】

Tan Xiaoqi choked: [...My boyfriend and I have a very good relationship, and I don’t have a crush on anyone.]

There is no need to be so narcissistic.

Lu Xiao was stunned by her: [So why do you care about us?]

Tan Xiaoqi lowered her head and banged the table. Damn it, you can't say I want to see you fall in love!

According to Lu Xiao's character, if she heard this explanation, she might not be able to survive in No. 13 Middle School.

She tactfully found a reason: [I think you have a good relationship, and you are particularly eye-catching when you are together.]

Then, as if he was afraid that he wouldn’t understand, he added a dog-licking persona to himself: [I like to see handsome guys [starry eyes], such as you and Brother Cheng.]

Somehow, seeing Tan Xiaoqi's words, Lu Xiao felt a little bit happy in her heart.

He was not so happy when he was elected as the school president by three thousand votes, but here he felt an indescribable joy.

Suspect x: [You mean, we look good together?]

Tan Xiaoqi thought for a moment and felt that good brothers should also use the word "very suitable", so she affirmed: [Yes, that's what it means!]

Lu Xiao put away her phone, with a faint smile on her lips.

He immersed himself in scribbling his biology homework for a while, and successfully missed a whole page of paper. Then he propped up his face and looked at the moon outside the window.

There is a full moon tonight, which is very beautiful. The full moonlight casts a silvery glow all over the corridor.

Lu Xun once said, "The moonlight is beautiful tonight, it seems to be a confession."

Haha, is it possible that even Yueguang thinks they are a good match?

He thought ecstatically.

Ye Cheng glanced at Lu Xiao on the stage and saw that his face was intoxicated, so he guessed that he was in a good mood.

He breathed a sigh of relief and sent a message to Huang Sheng'an under the table: [If you want to pick up girls, pick up girls. Can you come to the school gate to get it yourself? I almost got killed, do you know?]

Huang Sheng'an: [嘤嘤嘤, please, Su said she gave you the smoothie, please bring it to me after school.]

Ye Cheng: [Take your mother and drink.]

Huang Sheng’an: [Aren’t you allergic to mangoes?! Damn it, do you need to call an ambulance? 】

Ye Cheng sent an eye-rolling emoticon: [I didn’t drink it.]

He really didn't want to offend that student. The second time would be very troublesome.

It seems that this trick is still effective. The boy smiled throughout the evening self-study period, although he didn't know what he was smiling about.

When school was over, he even invited Ye Cheng to have barbecue on the weekend.

Lu Xiao is actually a very extreme person. If he likes a person, he will go to death to treat him well; if he hates a person, he will go to death to punish him.

Extreme‌enthusiastic, straightforward and dedicated.

Therefore, his affection for Ye Cheng was always openly displayed on the surface.

‌Ye Cheng is just the opposite of him. It's hard for outsiders to see whether he likes or hates someone.

After the evening self-study get out of class, the sky was covered with dark clouds.

That night, there was a heavy rain in Nandu City.

The city goes through this phase every summer, and the rainy season accompanied by high temperatures will last for several days.

The rain made the entire classroom wet. The smell of earth and grass floated in the air, and traces of water snaked all the way from the door to the seats.

Not everyone was late for self-study this morning. Due to the special weather, the students on duty today did not have their names recorded.

Lu Xiao was also late. When Ye Cheng took the morning reading, he was nowhere to be seen.

Until the bell rang for the first period, the seat next to him was still empty.

Jiang Jin turned his head and asked, "Brother Xiao, what's wrong? Did he oversleep? Do you want to call him and ask him?"

Just as Ye Cheng was about to pick up the phone, Hua Wangchun came in from the back door holding a compass.

With quick eyesight and quick hands, he stuffed the phone into the hole in the table, and Jiang Jin immediately sat upright with his head straight.

Hua Wangchun didn't pay attention to their actions and raised his voice: "Everyone, please pay attention. The sports meeting originally planned to be held this week has been temporarily canceled. It is expected to rain for a while, so it will definitely not be possible this week.

.”

The students responded with disappointment and reluctantly sat down in class listlessly.

Ye Cheng secretly sent a WeChat message to Lu Xiao, asking him why he didn't come to class.

After a long time, there was no reply.

"It's early in the morning, don't doze off, open the book to the place where I talked last time..."

Hua Wangchun began to lecture, his tone as hypnotic as the weather.

Ye Cheng noticed that he saw an empty seat in the back row, but did not mention Lu Xiao.

He frowned. Did Lu Xiao ask for leave?

What a surprise. He was still very lively last night. It was almost ten o'clock and he was still asking some mentally retarded English questions.

After lunch, Lu Xiao's seat was still empty.

Throughout the whole morning, no teacher asked him why he didn't come to class, as if they all ignored this point.

It seems that he did take a leave of absence.

Ye Cheng called him several times, but no one answered them.

"Maybe I have someone at home and asked for a full day off." Jiang Jin said, "No, Hua Wangchun would have scolded me a long time ago."

His words "I have something at home" gave Ye Cheng some bad thoughts.

He looked at the pouring rain outside and wondered what news Lu Xiao had.

When school was over in the evening, Huang Sheng'an suddenly sent him a WeChat message and asked him to wait for him at the door.

The two of them went home in the same direction, and sometimes they would go together. But because the evening self-study in No. 13 Middle School started twenty minutes earlier than that in the attached middle school, the two of them were able to go home together very occasionally.

The rain stopped a little at night, and Ye Cheng waited for him under the streetlight with an umbrella.

The tall plane trees cast rows of reflections on the asphalt road, like majestic guards arrayed neatly, guarding the sleeping Nandu City.

A flash of lightning flashed across the sky, lighting up half of the sky with a crackle.

The girls on the road exclaimed, their skirts were splashed with rainwater, and they huddled under an umbrella complaining.

"Orange! I'm coming! Huh-" Huang Sheng'an ran over.

He ran very quickly, and a large area of ​​his body got wet, as if he was in a hurry.

"Finally get out of class is over, you've been waiting for a long time."

He stretched out his hand to wipe the rain off his flat head and gasped.

"No, why are you so anxious?" Ye Cheng said.

Huang Sheng'an swallowed, and Ye Cheng realized that his eyes were a little panicked: "I... I have something to do with you. Let's find a place to sit down and talk."

The only one open near this point is McDonald's.

So the two of them went to McDonald's under umbrellas, ordered two McFlurries, and sat down in front of the second-floor window.

There were almost no people upstairs, and the air conditioner was so low that it gave people goosebumps on their arms.

Ye Cheng stirred the McFlurry with a spoon and said, "Tell me, why is this so urgent?"

The worry on Huang Sheng'an's face has not changed since he saw him.

He put his knuckles to his mouth and frowned, as if he was hesitating how to speak.

After a while, he said with determination: "Chengzi, I met your boyfriend last night."

Ye Cheng was stunned for a few seconds before he realized who he was talking about.

"He's not me...forget it, it's not important." He tried to defend, but gave up, "Where did you see him?"

Let’s talk about what’s important first.

Huang Sheng'an was nervous and said seriously: "I said, don't be scared, don't be scared... To be honest, I almost want to persuade you to break up with him, after all, this kind of person is

Determined to bomb, who would have thought that he actually had..."

He got stuck mid-sentence, with an expression that he couldn't bear to look at.

"Stop hesitating, what's going on?" Ye Cheng frowned.

Huang Sheng'an licked his lips and said, "That's it. Last night, my dad answered the phone and hurried to the hospital, saying that there was an emergency in the hospital. It started to rain when it started to rain.

"Yes, he left in a hurry and didn't bring his mobile phone or umbrella, so my mother asked me to chase him and give them to him."

Ye Cheng gradually developed an ominous premonition and asked, "What's next?"

"When I walked out of the door, I found that he had left, so I had to take a taxi to Qingshan." Huang Sheng'an's voice was low, as if he was afraid of scaring him, "I just got off the car and walked to the door, and he was in the inpatient department.

I saw Lu Xiao and he entered the building with my dad."

"They were still talking, and my dad kept patting him on the shoulder."

Ye Cheng's heart suddenly lifted.

He knew what kind of place Qingshan was.

Lu Xiao disappeared for a day, and it turned out that he went to the hospital.

Huang Sheng'an observed him carefully and said: "To be honest, the person who can still call my dad over if it's too late must be a patient who has been treated for a long time, otherwise..."

"Otherwise, it would be impossible to invite the dean." Ye Cheng muttered.

No wonder, Lu Xiao was so familiar with Hu Jiawei's situation that he could tell at just one glance that his spirit was abnormal.

His heart was agitated, like messy rain on the glass, so wet and cold that he couldn't breathe.

Huang Sheng'an said worriedly: "This disease is difficult to cure completely, and some people are even aggressive when they attack. That Lu Xiao has such a bad temper, he is well-known in No. 13 Middle School, who knows if he will

It will hurt others. I say Ye Zi, you should break up with him."

Ye Cheng rubbed his temples and said softly: "We are not dating."

"What's this fake? Don't lie to me!" Huang Sheng'an's eyes widened.

Ye Cheng was confused and nodded perfunctorily.

Huang Sheng'an finally relaxed, patted his chest and said, "That's good, I was scared to death, so I thought you two would be together, so I ran over to tell you."

"My dad is still not home yet. He is probably in the hospital for consultation. His condition seems to be quite serious," he said.

The rain outside the window became heavier, washing against the glass.

Huang Sheng'an felt relieved, stood up and said, "Well, since there's nothing left, let's go home."

Ye Cheng stood up with him, but seemed a little absent-minded.

"Fortunately, you have nothing to do with him. Let me tell you, mental illness can be very scary... My dad once had a patient who stabbed three nurses with a knife..."

Huang Sheng'an muttered in his ear, but he didn't listen to a word.

Does Lu Xiao have sperm disease?

If that's the case, how could he not notice anything after being with him for more than three years?

But what did he do when he went to Qingshan late at night? Moreover, when he mentioned Chen Zhen last time, he also said that they met in Qingshan.

After Ye Cheng arrived home, Gao Qiulan greeted her.

She took the wet schoolbag and said, "You're finally here. It's raining so hard outside, but I'm worried to death. I'm still thinking about taking a taxi to pick you up."

"I didn't get wet, grandma." Ye Cheng comforted her.

The elderly are always prone to unfounded worries, fearing that they will starve and freeze.

There was loud thunder outside, like thousands of troops passing by, rumbling down from the roof.

The rain came down harder than before, and the flowers and plants on the terrace were blown to pieces.

Gao Qiulan planted a lot of jasmine, mulberry and crabapple, all of which were easily damaged by storms.

The grandfather and grandson worked together to move in the delicate flowers.

Seeing that Gao Qiulan was wet, Ye Cheng urged her to take a shower and change clothes.

Although she is still in good health, she is old and it is best to avoid getting sick if possible.

Gao Qiulan told him: "I made ginger soup. Remember to drink it. If you don't like it, drink it too."

"Okay, I will. You go take a shower quickly, don't catch a cold." Ye Cheng pushed her into the bedroom.

He walked to the kitchen, opened the lid of the pot and poured some ginger soup.

Gao Qiulan knew that he hated the taste of ginger, so he specially put lemon and brown sugar in it, which diluted the spiciness of ginger a lot.

After drinking a cup of Nuannuan, Ye Cheng vaguely remembered some fragmentary information.

One time he caught a severe cold, which lasted for several days and did not heal. Even taking medicine had no effect at all.

Lu Xiao heard the local recipe from somewhere and cooked him a pot of ginger soup.

Their kitchen is very different from the kitchen here. Gao Qiulan is very interesting in life. The cabinets and countertops are painted a vibrant avocado green, and the painted tiles on the floor look particularly warm.

‌The two men's kitchens are open more than three times a year.

Both of them were very aloof at home, and neither of them wanted to touch the few square meters of land.

Every time Gao Qiulan came here, she would fill their refrigerator with her own hands, for fear that her grandson would not survive.

They spend all day out eating delicacies from the sea, Japanese and French, but they rarely eat three meals a day at home.

Both of them were used to this kind of life, so they never had any differences.

Until that day, when Lu Xiao was cooking, he made a pot of ginger soup that was so unpleasant that he still feels like vomiting when he remembers it.

At first, Ye Cheng refused to drink. He wrapped himself in a blanket and drank with him while dragging his nose.

Later, Lu Xiao became angry, so she drank some ginger soup and drank it mouth to mouth.

That is to say, he didn't know how bad it was until he drank it himself.

Ye Cheng was so angry that he burst into tears and runny nose. His entire face was pale with a sickly blush, and he tearfully accused him of abusing her.

Lu Xiao regretted it instantly, feeling annoyed and blaming herself.

From then on, he began to study how to make food less processed and harder to swallow.

After a few months of waiting, his friends began to wonder how he could cook.

Ye Cheng leaned against the island, the ginger soup in his hand exuding the soft aroma of lemon.

The thunder outside was deafening, and the violent storm swept across the city, as if the world would end in the next second.

He stood there for a while, then stood up and put the cup into the sink.

Then he rummaged through his schoolbag for his cell phone and found the biggest umbrella.

"Grandma, I'm going to go for a while, I'll be back soon." He shouted to the bedroom, opened the umbrella regardless, and rushed into the heavy rain with his head lowered.

Nandu's subway stopped operating at eleven o'clock. Ye Cheng ran in the rain. When he arrived at the subway station, his back was already wet.

There were almost no people in the subway station at this point. He entered the station face to face with the security check. His appearance was strangely calm, but his heartbeat was so fast that it was a mess.

Ye Cheng sat in an unoccupied seat and soon received a call from Gao Qiulan.

"Hey, grandma." He shook off the water drops on his arm and wanted to find some paper towels to wipe it with, but found that he had left in a hurry and didn't bring anything except his mobile phone.

"Where have you been? You kid, why are you running outside in this heavy rain?" Gao Qiulan said in an anxious tone.

Ye Cheng lied: "My classmate asked me for help. You can go to bed first. I will be there before twelve o'clock."

It takes about ‌‌ to take the subway from the city to Qingshan.

But after this train passed, the subway should be out of service, so he could only take a taxi.

Gao Qiulan couldn't resist him and said: "Be careful yourself and send a message to grandma when you get there. What kind of classmates are they? It's too late and I ask you to go."

Ye Cheng listened to her ramble for a while, then coaxed her to sleep.

He thought for a while and sent a message to Lu Xiao.

【Are you there?】

Still no reply there.

Ye Cheng's hand gradually tightened, and his nervousness spread.

He was very impulsive, but at this moment he just wanted to confirm one thing, that is, Lu Xiao was not there.

Fifty minutes later, a gentle female voice sounded: "We are at Qingshan Station, please be ready to get off. You can transfer to Line 1 or Line 4 at this station..."

Ye Cheng came to Qingshan for the first time and went to the hospital after getting off the subway.

But I never expected that when I opened the Amap map, I discovered that Qingshan Hospital is five kilometers away from the subway station.

He tried to take a taxi, but after waiting for more than ten minutes, there was no response from the app.

Not being able to get a taxi on a rainy day is probably the most unlucky thing besides the lack of seasoning packets in instant noodles.

Otherwise, the signal is extremely poor.

He finally understood that there was no news from Lu Xiao, it was very difficult to open the page, and he might smash his phone if he was out of temper.

He didn't want to wait any longer, so he had to brave the heavy rain and follow the navigation with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

Before I took a few steps, the shoes on my feet were filled with water.

Why on earth do I have to impulsively come to such a ghost place... He gritted his teeth and thought to himself.

By the time he arrived at Qingshan Hospital, Ye Cheng had suffered from drowned chicken.

The rain was so heavy that the umbrella was useless and was blown over several times during the trip.

The automatic door opened, and the air-conditioning hit him almost enough to make him faint.

The lights in the inpatient department were dim, the door to the duty room was open, and there was no one inside.

...Nope.

He waited at the door for several minutes, but still didn't see the person on duty.

The end of the corridor was dark, with only the words "Safety Passage" illuminated in green.

It seemed like there was no other person in the whole hospital except him.

Ye Chengping seems to be quite courageous, but he has a bad habit, which is watching horror movies.

Especially the kind that happens in hospitals, dormitories, elevators, etc., so when he lives on campus in college, someone must accompany him outside even when taking a shower.

‌Lu Xiao laughed at him several times.

There was no movement in the corridor, but it looked even more terrifying.

Unable to restrain himself, some pictures began to appear in his mind.

Fucked, ‌fucked.

Ye Cheng had recovered from his impulse and scolded Lu Xiao for more than ten minutes on the road. At this moment, all the sadness and worry in his heart had disappeared.

He just hopes that there will be a living person.

Finally, after shouting "Is there anyone there" three times in a weak voice, he couldn't bear it any longer.

There are eight floors in the inpatient department. Who knows where Lu Xiao is.

Ye Cheng decided to call Huang Sheng'an and ask about his father. Although that would make Huang Sheng'an more suspicious of their relationship, there was no other way.

Just as he was taking out his cell phone to make a call, he suddenly heard a strange noise coming from the corridor in front of him.

Thin, sharp, like a baby's cry.

Ye Cheng was completely furious, screamed, turned around and ran out the door.

The moment the automatic door opened, he bumped into someone.

He rushed out with his head buried, and his head hit the man staggeringly.

But before the man could stand firm, he took the lead to hold his shoulders to prevent him from falling due to the excessive momentum.

"Quick, run!" Ye Cheng raised his head tremblingly, wanting to ask this brother to run away with him.

After seeing the face in front of him clearly, he froze.

Lu Xiao lowered his head and looked at him, the shock in his eyes was no worse than his.

"Why are you here?" He looked at Ye Cheng up and down, seeming to be shocked by his embarrassed appearance.

The sound sounded again in the corridor behind me,

"Wow woo-woo--"

Ye Cheng decisively jumped into his arms and hugged him tightly.

"Help! There's a ghost!"

Lu Xiao froze on the spot.
