evening mountain [rebirth]

Chapter 12 Focus on the Now

don't be angry, okay?

"I heard that it's an online celebrity shop with a good taste. It's quite nearby and there are events going on, so I bought it along the way and wanted to try it. I'll give you the extra cup."

Xu Jiaxing and Xu Luoxing hadn't come back yet, Yu Ran sat down on the seat in front of him, folded his hands on the back of the chair, his long legs almost stretched out under his chair: "Buy one get one free, I The bills are all brought back, if you don’t believe me, take a look.”

Yu Ran took out a small ticket and smiled like a cunning fox.

What he said was true, but buy one get one free was not because of any so-called activities, but because the shops in the park where the shop was located were all under the name of the Yu family.

But He Wanshan didn't answer.

He looked down at the burning jelly grass on the table, looking a little absent-minded, and he didn't know what he was thinking of. The end of his eyes, which were as warm as distant mountains in ink and wash, were rarely smudged with the bright red of peach blossoms in spring.

Yu Ran was stunned, it was the first time he saw such an expression on He Wanshan's face, and for a moment he didn't know how to respond: "Wan Shan, don't you like burning fairy grass?"

"No..." He Wanshan was taken aback for a moment, Yu Ran's voice brought him back to his senses in an instant, his frozen eyes shifted from the burning fairy grass milk tea on the table to Yu Ran's face.

Yu Ran's appearance is the thick face that is unique to oriental beauties, with three-dimensional facial features and sharp outlines. When the face is expressionless, there will be a bit of alienation and indifference between the eyebrows and eyes that reject people thousands of miles away.

He Wanshan's gaze fell uncontrollably on Yu Ran's face, at that time Yu Ran was looking at him seriously with his chin resting on one hand, as if waiting for his answer.

"I really don't need it." When He Wanshan said this, his tone was a little heavy. He clearly saw the expression on Yu Ran's face froze for a moment, and he also knew that his current behavior might misunderstand Yu Ran.

But he couldn't tell Yu Ran that the reason he did this was because he had a ridiculous dream just now, and he couldn't tell him that part of what happened in the dream had already happened in reality after he woke up.

At the same time, after discovering that He Wanshan didn't want to talk to him, Yu Ran shut himself off instantly.

He left early to buy two cups and rushed back to school after he heard a dinner party mention that there was a very good roasted jelly grass nearby.

He was very interested when he bought it, thinking that He Wanshan might like it.Buying just one cup seems too purposeful. Buying two cups is just an excuse to buy one and get one free so that He Wanshan can accept it logically.

But the development of the matter was completely beyond his expectation. He brought milk tea, but the other party not only didn't look happy at all, but frowned slightly and looked distressed.

Hiss, could it be that his thoughts were too obvious and too anxious to be discovered?

Yu Ran's heart sank, and his face pretended to be relaxed, but his heart was already so nervous that his heart beat faster, and all kinds of messy guesses in his head could directly compose a youth campus novel.

But fortunately, He Wanshan didn't say anything, and it didn't seem like he was really aware of his sneaky thoughts, but he seemed to have something on his mind, and he was a little absent-minded in class all afternoon.

Although Yu Ran wanted to ask a little bit, but he just wandered around the edge of the social security system, not to mention that he and He Wanshan have not known each other for a long time, and the relationship between them is not so close that they can directly dig into other people's thoughts Degree.

So Yu Ran remained silent all afternoon.He thought he was giving He Wanshan a space to think quietly, but he didn't know that his sudden dumb behavior would make him angry and awkward in He Wanshan's eyes.

Must be angry.

He Wanshan, who stayed up until the end of the afternoon, was a little flustered, and then regretted it.

Leaving aside whether his dream is a reality or a coincidence that will happen in the future, of course he is more inclined to the latter.But even if it is the former, he shouldn't affect the present because of some so-called "future" that he doesn't know whether it will change.

What will happen in the future naturally has a reason for it to happen. If you don't understand the process, the best way to deal with it is to act as if you never knew.

He Wanshan doesn't intend to spend too much time thinking about this dream, after all, time will give him the answer, and focusing on the present is worse than worrying about the future.

He Wanshan fell silent looking at the untouched burnt grass jelly milk tea on the table.

It can be said that it is polite to refuse once, but it is his own fault to refuse others' kindness repeatedly.

He obviously has many better ways to deal with it, he can tell Yu Ran that he doesn't need to give him anything in the future, and he can also choose to give Yu Ran some small gifts in return, but he shouldn't scold him in such a serious tone.

He Wanshan looked at the empty seat beside him, and couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

Teacher Liu told him before that making friends is a two-way process of giving, and there is nothing wrong with not giving or accepting unilaterally, but it is also not advisable to completely refuse.

What happened today was because he mishandled it and didn't consider it properly.

When he sees Yu Ran tomorrow, he has to find a time to apologize to him.

Meanwhile, on the other side—

Yu Ran never thought that she would skip class and go to the bookstore to steal an emotional magazine one day.

Ever since his ideal type was a man and he became his deskmate, he has done too many things that he thought he would never do in his life.Now, it seems that no matter how bizarre and weird he does in a flash of his brain, he no longer finds it strange.

Yu Ran looked at the Hong Kong media-style emotional magazine in his hand and fell silent.

But even so, Yu Ran still didn't have that thick skin, and could directly take the emotional magazine with the theme of sympathy to the cashier to pay without any concealment.

So Yu Ran picked a few books from the bookshelf, pretending that he came here to collect data for some academic or research purpose, and then quietly inserted an emotional magazine with a fancy cover among five or six psychology books Went to the cashier and paid.

After buying the books, Yu Ran naturally skipped the evening self-study and went home early.

The first thing Yu Ran did when he got home was to run upstairs and lock himself into the bedroom.

His question is too personal, not a topic that can be easily spoken out to ask for other people's opinions, and because it involves He Wanshan, it needs to be more cautious, the less people who know it, the better.

Although the emotional magazine looks unreliable, many stories are more about the story than the truth.But after all, novels are based on reality, and the stories in emotional magazines are often seven parts true and three parts false. If the exaggerated embellishments are removed, there may be predecessors' experience in it for his reference.

Yu Ran flipped through the emotional magazine in his hand.

The first sentence of the opening paragraph is bolded in black.

[The worst crime in this world is love at first sight. 】

Yu Ran's heart trembled violently, and after taking his seat, he heard a crash and his heart instantly became half cold.

Good guy, isn't he talking about himself?

Yu Ran hastily continued to look down.

The stories in the magazine are bloody but realistic. High school students fell in love with the class monitor of the same gender but dare not speak up. The final ending of the story is not the lovers who Chinese people always like to get married, but the high school students watched with their own eyes. The person I like got married and started a business, and was finally invited to the wedding. With sobs, I wished him and his wife a happy life together.

Yu Ran was stunned.

I don't know if the angle and tone of the story are so empathetic to the readers. He is rarely depressed, and when he thinks of He Wanshan's abnormal attitude during the day, he feels even more uncomfortable.

In fact, it is not that Yu Ran has not considered this issue. He sometimes thinks that if the probability of tossing a coin is infinitely close to 50%, then the possibility of falling in love at first sight after a glimpse in the vast crowd is probably only [-]%. one billionth.

Based on this presumption, the possibility of falling in love after first sight is infinitely close to zero.

Thinking of this, Yu Ran suddenly felt that it was not without his reasons for the high school students to make such a decision.

The twisted melon is not sweet, since you already know that the other party is purely heterosexual, then forcing the impossible two-way trip is really a daydream.

But what about He Wanshan?

Yu Ran found that he didn't know the other party's sexuality, and He Wanshan never seemed to express his liking for anyone more than a friend. Even Shen Shu, who was called the school belle, came to strike up a conversation in person, he seemed to be purely nervous, not Fascinated or shy.

In that case, wait a little longer.Yu Ran logically found an excuse for his delay.

It is said that long-term pain is worse than short-term pain, but some people are in love pain.

Licking wounds, pressing bruises, holding flowers in the mirror, recalling the past that no longer exists over and over again.

After finally crawling out of the mud, he made up his mind to seal his heart and love, but as soon as he saw the face of the old man, he resurfaced and made the same mistakes again.

This kind of behavior is hopelessly stupid in the eyes of Yu Ran from the past, he is absolutely action-oriented in everything, and his style of action is to cut through the mess with a sharp knife.But this time, he chose to procrastinate and wait and see on He Wanshan.

In fact, he could just ask He Wanshan directly and confess that he has a crush on him.If He Wanshan is in a difficult situation or unwilling, then simply make a clean break, and don't let anyone get in the way of anyone's eyes anymore.

But obviously, he couldn't do it, and he didn't want to do it, and only he knew the reason.

Early the next morning, Class [-] and [-] of Senior High School started their morning reading as usual.

The whole morning, the two of them were doing their own things, and they were very quiet with each other, not even making eye contact.

He Wanshan was waiting for an opportunity to apologize, while Yu Ran simply made up his mind and decided to put away his petty thoughts and start a simple friendship with He Wanshan.

He spent the whole night making many excuses for himself, such as the fact that it is common to have a crush on the same sex during puberty, and it will disappear when puberty is over.

Another example is to wait and see He Wanshan's sexuality, if it really doesn't match, it's better to act as if nothing happened than to tear yourself apart with him.

The two people's silence all morning naturally attracted the attention of the two melon eaters in the front seat. The two took advantage of their lunch break to carry Wu Mei, who was about to brush up questions, to the corridor, and the three immediately held an emergency meeting.

Wu Mei originally thought that since he was a child and a widow, he would finally meet a deskmate who could live a stable life.

Unexpectedly, something happened again just a few days later: "Isn't it? It's only been a few days since we got along? Let me say yes first, this time I won't go to Lao Liu."

"It's not that I said, Wanshan is definitely the most tempered person I've ever met. If Brother Ran thinks his personality is inconsistent, he deserves to be lonely. The gods in the sky who manage social fortunes will have to scold him when he sees it." serve."

"Who says it's not!" Xu Luoxing poked Xu Jiaxing with his elbow, "Why don't you talk about it? It's rare that someone doesn't think that Brother Ran has a bad temper. If He Wanshan loses this, next time he'll fight Lantern can’t find such a person anymore.”

"Of course I understand the truth." Xu Jiaxing was also annoyed by Xu Luoxing's nagging, and the limited-edition pen held between his fingers was quickly turned by him, "But it's not the first day you met Brother Ran. He can hear it."

The two suddenly started a cold war, and he was also anxious. It is rare to have someone who fits his good brother's eyes, and he is unexpectedly good, and he doesn't want the two of them to break up like this.

But the problem is that Yu Ran's temper is really smelly and hard like a stone in a latrine, as long as he doesn't want to listen to anyone's persuasion, it won't work.

However, at this moment, Wu Mei, who was standing by the window in a daze, seemed to see something terrible, and quickly waved to the other two people: "Hey! Wait, it seems to be a little bit!"

The eyes of the three people looked at the back row of the classroom in unison.

In the classroom, He Wanshan, who hesitated all morning, finally found a chance, raised his hand and gently put two toffee on Yu Ran's desk.

Yu Ran's gaze was immediately attracted, and he turned to look at the people around him.

It was the afternoon, and the sun was like a lake full of water pouring into the room through the gaps in the curtains. The gloomy and bright colors were wrapped in a bit of a little drunkenness unique to late summer, which made the already hot room rise into unbearable heat. meaning.

He Wanshan looked at him with bright and gentle eyes, and there was a shadow of sunset on one side of his cheek.

"What happened yesterday was my fault." He Wanshan said softly after approaching slowly.

"Yuman, I apologize to you, don't be angry, okay?"

The author says:

Yu Ran: I want Feng Xin Suo Ai and Wan Shan to be friends!

Wan Shan: Don't be angry, okay?

Afterburn: Please treat me as a fart when I said before.
