Take It Easy

What did you just call me?

Sunny days are common in winter in the Southwest. During the day, the sky is blue and the sun is warm, cloudless, but the wind is strong.

Mu Qinglin stood under the tree wearing only a sweater, her hair was blown all over by the strong wind.

She grabbed it casually but it didn't work, so she didn't move again.

The long silence made the wind become noisy.

Mu Qinglin took a step back and leaned against the tree trunk, replaying Zhou Yi's words "Mu Qinglin, I see" repeatedly in his mind.

It's time to know.

The "mind" is so obvious, and the "temptation" doesn't know how to hide it.

But both of them know, are they going to start avoiding her?

…

"Yanyan, why are you still standing there?" Chen Chao, who couldn't wait for Mu Qinglin to come up for a long time, came over in a hurry, holding an oxygen bottle in his hand, handed it to her and said, "It's hard to take a few breaths."

Mu Qinglin smiled helplessly, "It's not that far yet."

Chen Chao's expression was serious, "Don't be brave, the altitude is high here, and you are in poor condition now, don't hold back when you feel uncomfortable, or we will be even more worried."

The smile on Mu Qinglin's face paused for a moment, then slowly sank, "I'm causing you trouble."

"If you talk like that again, I won't care about you." Chen Chao frowned and said, "The revolutionary friendship between us has been rumored to be a rock, and it's too common for you to keep saying "trouble". outside. "

Mu Qinglin raised her eyebrows, "Who was it at that time to reject Banhua and let the scandal develop?"

Chen Chao, "Then who is so young and energetic that he doesn't even bother to explain?"

"..." The two looked at each other for a few seconds and laughed at the same time.

Chen Chao changed the oxygen bottle to another hand, and put on a look like a big brother, "Speaking of which, what's your situation now?"

Mu Qinglin, "What's the situation?"

"Emotions. You are not young, don't tell me you are still single." Chen Chao's probing eyes locked on Mu Qinglin, "One WeChat message can make you so nervous that you run out without your coat on, and you are safe and sound after a phone call." , such a quick emotional change, what else is there besides being in love? Yanyan, do you have a clue?"

Mu Qinglin laughed, turned his head to avoid Chen Chao's gaze, and looked at the endless blue sky in the distance, "As I am now, I can only have nothing."

Chen Chao was taken aback, and his tone suddenly became severe, "Yanyan! If you don't move forward, no one can help you!"

It was rare for Mu Qinglin to see Chen Chao angry, and wanted to speak poorly, but turned her gaze back to catch the worry on his face, said nothing, just waved her hands, straightened her body and walked towards the pure white building not far away.

On the other side, Zhou Yi sat alone, motionless.

It was still cold in early February, and the wind blew up across the river, and everyone screamed and avoided.

Mu Zipei ran over quickly, picked up the scarf that Zhou Yi had dropped on the ground, and said with a trembling voice, "Xiao Jiu, why don't you go back to your room for a while? It's quite cold here, my sister told me, You are not allowed to blow dry."

your sister said.

She said it again!

"She's not my sister, why should I listen to her?!" Zhou Yi's suddenly raised voice attracted everyone's attention.

Seeing the embarrassing expression on Mu Zipei's face, she quickly let go of her tightly clenched hands, took the scarf from her, and said in a voice that everyone could hear: "Same table, I'm sorry, my last life Maybe he died of freezing, and he can't control his temper when it's cold."

"I'm scared to death." Mu Zipei patted his chest and exhaled, "It's okay, it's okay, you go back quickly, and I'll send it to you when you have enough food."

"This is so embarrassing." Zhou Yi hooked Mu Zipei's shoulders, and walked with her to the barbecue stand, "To tell you the truth, my barbecue skills are the best in Hongmen Lane, but I am too lazy to show it. Today Let me open your eyes."

"Great, I just thought that dogs wouldn't eat anything Wang Xiaoyang baked."

"You ate..."

"Ang?" Mu Zipei thought for a while, and said firmly, "I will follow you as a human being!"

Zhou Yi, "Make sure your dreams come true."

In the second half of the journey, Zhou Yi was responsible for the food of the other thirty or so people alone, making himself a spinning top.

The top needs to concentrate to turn steadily, and it will become wobbly if you are distracted.

She loves the role and does a great job.

After eating, a group of people quarreled over the topic of where to play in the afternoon.

Zhou Yi did not participate.

Sitting with his back on the edge of the barbecue stall, he stared at the calm lake in a daze.

As the cold wind blew, she lowered her head and swallowed her saliva. Her throat was dry and sore, which was an inevitable symptom before every cold.

Zhou Yi gave a low laugh, and said in her heart: It's great, she caught a cold without looking at someone, but fortunately, she just didn't get sick for a while, and she can get over it after a little adaptation.

"Xiao Jiu, let's go play." Mu Zipei shouted from behind.

Zhou Yi shook his hand with his back to her, got up and walked over after a while, smiled and asked, "Where are you going to play?"

Mu Zipei was surprised, "Xiao Jiu, this is the first time I see you smiling so happily."

"Is there?"

"It's very obvious. Is there something good about it?"

"It has to be a good thing to laugh?"

"Sure, it's too late to cry about bad things."

"Then I might be different."

—

In the next half month, Zhou Yi didn't hear any news from Mu Qinglin, only heard from Mu Zipei after school started that she was delayed for something, and she wouldn't come back for a while.

Mu Zipei didn't say anything specific, and Zhou Yi didn't ask either. Apart from reading books and doing questions every day, he was just arguing with his classmates.

She originally wanted to keep aloof until the end of the college entrance examination, but unfortunately, with Mu Zipei as a group favorite, it was difficult for her to keep a distance from the people in class one.

Of course, more than forty people are not four, there are always one or two exceptions, such as Wang Feifei and Xue Qian.

On the first day of school, Zhu Li praised Zhou Yi and Mu Zipei for their rapid progress in front of the whole class, especially Mu Zipei.

Her math score this time was 7 points higher than the average score, and her ranking was beyond the reach of Wang Feifei and Xue Qian, who fell out of class one. In addition, Xu Chi did not notify them of the party during the holiday, and the two felt uncomfortable. When it comes to Mu Zipei, there will be yin and yang.

Since Mu Zipei knew the grades, she kept a peaceful appearance every day, and Wang Feifei and Xue Qian could say whatever they wanted.

Zhou Yi was different, as long as she was there at the time, she would definitely not show face to them, and Mu Zipei, who was moved by this move, posted a letter of confession in Moments every day.

Zhou Yi went to see it.

I didn't pay much attention to the content, but the responses from mutual friends would be browsed one by one.

Mu Qinglin never clicked on a like, let alone a comment.

After that day, she seemed to disappear from her life suddenly, she looked clean, but when she looked deeper, there were traces everywhere.

…

During the holiday at the end of the month, Zhou Yi finished the test paper overnight, and the next day he had nothing to do, so he took the initiative to ask Tang Yuanzhou to pick up a small picture, and then spent the whole day in the studio. Ming Kai couldn't help feeling, "The last school was really different. Yes, I used to ask you to draw pictures to be punished, but now you sit more stably than me."

Zhou Yi didn't raise his head, and wrote quickly, "You can't just eat and drink for nothing, what if Tang Yuanzhou gets offended one day and he kicks me out?"

"Are you afraid of this?" Ming Kai asked with a smile, "Tang Yuanzhou kicked you out, and Mu Qing should pack you up and take you home."

Zhou Yi suddenly heard Mu Qinglin's name, her wrist flicked, and an ugly black line appeared on the board. She pressed the shortcut key to erase it, and then wanted to write, but couldn't remember where she changed it just now.

"Do you all think she treats me very well?" Zhou Yi asked.

"It's not a feeling, it's the fact. This kind of thing is most clearly seen by outsiders who share the same illness." Ming Kai changed a soft-bristled oil brush, and quickly swept the natural gradient color, "When Xiao Hei came out to find a job, he and you They are about the same age, and they dropped out of high school, not because of bad grades, but purely because of family reasons, so they are more likely to worry about it than ordinary people.”

"On New Year's Eve, when you went to see off Mu Qinglin, he drank, dragged Yuanzhou and cried, asking himself why he didn't meet Mu Qinglin. If someone was willing to do all the work for him at that time, he might have gotten rid of him. The fate of school dropouts is over, what else do you say, if there is such a person, she is his sister who has no blood relationship, and you have to be filial to her for the rest of your life. This sounds funny, but if you are not really jealous of Mu Qinglin's kindness to you, Is it necessary for Xiao Hei to do this?" Ming Kai finally asked.

no need...

Zhou Yi held the pen and carefully traced the line, "It seems that I will no longer be ignorant of good and evil."

"What?" Ming Kai didn't hear clearly.

Zhou Yi shook his head, grabbed the bluetooth headset by his side, and stuffed it into his ear.

In the evening, after Zhou Yi asked Tang Yuanzhou to confirm, he uploaded the picture into the gallery.

She saw that it was still early and wanted to catch another one, but Xiao Hei suddenly ran up and said that someone was looking for her.

Zhou Yi was puzzled, "Who is it?" If she didn't pick up customers or make friends, who would look for her?

Xiao Hei blinked mysteriously, "You will know when you go down."

Zhou Yi, "Then I don't want to know."

"Don't, don't, people come here to look for you, is it right for you? Hurry up!" Xiao Heipa urged Zhou Yi by the back of his chair.

Zhou Yi had no choice but to put down his pen and follow him downstairs.

As soon as he saw Mu Qinglin leaning against the cash register, Zhou Yi subconsciously wanted to turn around, but was blocked by Xiao Hei behind him, and he was forced to stop.

It was in this split second that Zhou Yi regained his composure.

What are you running, ask what should be asked, what should not be said is not said, what no one knows, there is no need to hide.

As long as you are stable, the fact that you like Mu Qinglin can be rotten in your stomach forever.

Zhou Yi reminded herself in her heart.

In the blink of an eye, Mu Qinglin's familiar face suddenly caught in her eyes, she smiled unhurriedly, hooked her index finger at her from a distance of one floor, and said, "Come down..."

come to me.

But that's all.

At this very second, Zhou Yi finally realized how unkind it is to have the coexistence of ups and downs and calmness.

With the movement of brushing her hair, she shielded Mu Qinglin's sight with her hands. A few seconds later, he dragged his feet downstairs as usual and asked her, "When did you come back?"

Mu Qinglin, "Just arrived..."

Again.

This man really didn't want her to live.

"What's that in your hand? A candy box? Give me one." Zhou Yi couldn't take Mu Qinglin's words, so Wang Gu could only talk about him, turning sideways to grab the candy box in her hand.

Unexpectedly, Mu Qinglin raised his hand to avoid it.

She moved very quickly, almost slapping Zhou Yi's hand.

Zhou Yi was slightly taken aback, "It's just a piece of candy, do you want to be so stingy?"

Seeing Zhou Yi's expression, Mu Qinglin seemed to have reacted suddenly, quickly put the candy box into his pocket, and said in a deep voice, "Let me see my hand."

While speaking, Mu Qinglin was already pinching Zhou Yi's fingertips and bringing them towards him.

Zhou Yi wanted to hide for a moment, but in the end she didn't do anything. She pulled her hand close to her and looked at it for a while, then said, "I thought your skin and tender flesh would be broken after being hit like this."

Zhou Yi withdrew his hand and put it in his pocket, and replied nonchalantly, "That hit was on your bone, it would be hard to say if it was a candy box."

Mu Qinglin said "hmm" and explained: "Throat lozenges have a strong bitter taste, you will scream after eating them."

"Oh..." It doesn't matter, she didn't want to eat anyway.

Zhou Yi took a step back and leaned against the cash register.

The distance between the two suddenly narrowed, and Zhou Yi found that Mu Qinglin was a lot haggard, and his spirit seemed to be very poor.

"You..." Zhou Yi hesitated to speak, not knowing how to ask, "What have you been doing for the past twenty days?"

Mu Qinglin's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked with a smile, "Why do you ask that?"

Zhou Yi, "Didn't you look in the mirror yourself?"

Mu Qinglin's eyes stopped on Zhou Yi's face for a while, "It's a bit ugly, the environment over there is just like that."

Zhou Yi nodded, "Oh..."

Xiao Hei brought the customer over to check out, Zhou Yi straightened up and moved aside, and asked casually, "Is the business over there finished?"

Mu Qinglin, "It's over..."

"Go straight to work tomorrow?"

"Ok…"

"What a hard life." Zhou Yizhu sighed, "The earth would be fine without you."

Mu Qinglin leaned against the wall and said with a smile: "The earth will continue to rotate as usual, but if I don't work, I will have no income."

"Okay, okay, this year's May 1st, I'll draw a model worker certificate for you."

"Really? With Teacher Jiu's craftsmanship, how much can this certificate be sold online?"

Zhou Yi smiled, "If you dare to hang up, I will turn my back on you."

Mu Qinglin, "Turn over one now, let me see if it's bad or not before making a decision."

"You're flirting right after you came back." Zhou Yi glared angrily, his eyes flicked past Mu Qinglin's hand on the side of his neck, and he stopped suddenly, "What's wrong with your hand?"

Mu Qinglin lowered her hand, rubbed the back of her hand with the other hand and said, "Damn it, the bruise will take a few days to disappear."

Zhou Yi was speechless, "Are you going on an adventure this trip?"

Mu Qinglin, "It's kind of like that."

"Trust me, I write my name upside down."

"Yi Zhou?" Mu Qinglin smiled and shook his head, "Zhou Yi sounds nice."

What's the use of sounding good, and no one likes it.

Zhou Yi let out a breath silently, suppressing the surge in his chest, and said, "Is there something wrong here?"

Mu Qinglin, "It's okay, I'll stop by to see you."

By the way, do you really think I'm so stupid that I don't know the way?

Zhou Yixin said.

"What's good about me, one nose, two eyes." Zhou Yi said as he walked towards the door: "Go back and rest, the evening rush hour will be here soon."

Mu Qinglin watched Zhou Yi's crisp back for a few seconds, straightened up and followed.

At the door, Zhou Yi avoided the wind and said to Mu Qinglin, "I won't see you off, it's freezing cold."

Mu Qinglin, "Well, let's go in."

Mu Qinglin walked down the steps.

They were only three or four meters away when suddenly Zhou Yi called out, "Sister..."

Mu Qing paused, turned around quickly with a surprised expression, looked at Zhou Yi for a long time before asking her as if she didn't understand, "What did you call me just now?"

Zhou Yi clenched his hands in his pockets, leaned against the door frame with his shoulders, and said lazily, "Sister, Xiao Hei is jealous of me, and your sister is jealous of me. If I don't call you sister, how can I be worthy of their sincere feelings? "

Mu Qinglin's lips were pursed into a straight line, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just smiled and said following Zhou Yi's words: "As long as you like it. Let's go."

Zhou Yi's heart twitched, and the dull pain spread in an instant.

Anyone who is sick will like this title, it's so awkward.

But it's okay, it's still uncomfortable to scream now, but I get used to it after screaming.

quickly…
