Leave
Through the mosquito net, Tao Xingye looked at Lin Yu who was stuffing the legs of the mosquito net with a look of discomfort.
The roof was exceptionally empty, with no light around except for the twinkling stars in the sky. The evening breeze blew by, bringing a hint of coolness while the ground was still steaming.
"Okay, try lying down. You won't be hot in a while." Lin Yu sprayed a few sprays of toilet water and lay down next to him.
They each had a mosquito net, with two thin layers of gauze between them. It was dark, so only vague outlines could be seen, without any expression at all.
Tao Xingye never imagined that one day he would be sleeping on the roof!
Yesterday he was in the hotel suite listening to the butler talk about his schedule, and today he came to sleep in this almost deserted place.
He shouldn't have followed Lin Yu up here, not only that, he was carrying their bedding! He was just asking for trouble!
Tao Xingye kicked off the summer quilt on his body, turned around and glared at Lin Yu, the fire in his heart almost unable to be suppressed. At this time, Lin Yu stuffed the floral water in his hand and said, "You should spray a few more times too."
In the dark night, maybe because we were too close or something, her eyes sparkled.
"I'm really impressed by you." Tao Xingye took the toilet water awkwardly, and didn't notice that it sprayed on his face at the first time. He screamed subconsciously, but felt embarrassed. He sprayed it a few times and then lay back on the ground in annoyance.
The fire in my heart seemed to be dying out, but other inexplicable emotions were growing stronger and stronger.
This was an almost instinctive awkwardness, as if he was born with this emotion.
But he didn't know Lin Yu by nature.
Tao Xingye couldn't figure it out. He knew that he was sometimes very angry, but he also knew that his anger came and went quickly.
However, at this moment, that inexplicable emotion was blocking his heart, even making his brain blank and he could hardly think anymore.
In this small village, there are very few traces of modernity at night, to the point where they can be completely ignored.
They seemed to be sleeping in nature, with the sky and earth as their blankets, and the air caressing them directly and nakedly.
It seems that sleeping on the roof is not that unacceptable.
Tao Xingye's pent-up breath subsided a little, and suddenly a trace of sadness emerged from his heart, which was rare for him. "Lin Yu, why did you transfer schools?"
He had his back to Lin Yu. The surroundings were so quiet and the cicadas were so loud that he almost had tinnitus, but he couldn't wait to hear the sound he wanted to hear.
Lin Yu fell asleep with his back turned.
His heart sank to the bottom. Even if Lin Yu didn't answer, he knew the answer at this moment.
This young man, who could be called a child of destiny, had all the material things at his fingertips, but it seemed that his life was always not so perfect. He had to do many things alone since he was young.
His mother lived abroad with his younger brother, and they didn't see each other until New Year's Day. He thought he would receive all the care he imagined, but He Fan hoped that he would take good care of his younger brother.
He could sense that hidden beneath his mother's smile was exploitation. The smile she showed him was like an exchange of benefits with him. His mother smiled at him not out of love, but because she wanted to soften his heart.
He was not an emotionally sensitive person, and it was many days after New Year's Day that he understood the meaning of that smile.
Similarly, it had been so long since Lin Yu transferred to another school, but it wasn't until today, when he was lying on the roof of her grandmother's house, that he finally figured out the reason.
This answer is a whole year late.
"Lin Yu, why don't you tell me the truth?" He turned around again, facing Lin Yu, and said in a very low voice, "I'm your friend, and you don't even tell me the truth."
During that week, Tao Xingye stayed at Grandma Lin Yu's house and didn't leave.
Maybe he was used to being flattered, and he always wishfully thought that his ideas were what other people thought.
Everyone in the village knew that a very strange boy had come to the Lin family. He was tall and white, and sat under a tree every day watching the Lin family's granddaughter work.
If you say he is lazy, he sits there all day long, and he is sweating all over even under the scorching sun, but he still sits there; if you say he is diligent, he has not walked into the field for so many days.
When a villager tried to strike up a conversation with him, he turned his eyes away as if he hadn't heard them. He even froze his face in annoyance, saying, "You're blocking my view!"
Lin Yu and he got along harmoniously for a week. That night, when they went back to eat, Lin Yu was chewing on a steamed bun when Tao Xingye suddenly asked, "Can you get into No. 1 Middle School?"
No. 1 High School in the city is the best high school there, and it is even famous in the country.
Lin Yu didn't understand why he suddenly asked this. The high school entrance examination results had not yet come out. She was confident in her results but did not dare to say for sure.
"It should be possible." She lowered her eyes and took a bite of the steamed bun uncomfortably.
Tao Xingye didn't say anything at that time, but there were many things hidden in his eyes, as if he was making some very important choice.
Tao Xingye got up and left before finishing the meal.
Grandma Lin Yu pulled Lin Yu to send Tao Xingye off. Lin Yu had no choice but to chase after him, but Tao Xingye suddenly stopped and said viciously, "If you dare not get into the No. 1 Municipal Middle School, try it."
He ran away after saying this. Lin Yu didn't continue to see him off. She squatted on the side of the road for almost half an hour before walking back. "Grandma, I'm back!"
After returning from Linjia Village, Tao Xingye went straight to Tao Xingguo and said, "I don't want to study abroad anymore. I want to stay in China."
Tao Xingguo was almost furious when he heard what his son said. He had been busy running around and sending people to accompany him for so long, and now he just said he didn't want to go?
"Don't even think about it!" Tao Xingguo started cursing with his neck stiffened, and his voice was so loud that it attracted Tao Xinghai.
When Tao Xinghai rushed in, he saw his father standing there with his hands on his hips, pointing his arms and talking with a red face.
Where was his good brother? He was sitting in his chair, rocking leisurely, his eyebrows slightly raised, as if nothing had happened.
He remembered that his brother didn't usually ask for a beating!
"I'm here just to inform you that the No. 1 Middle School in the city is pretty good." Tao Xingye put down his crossed legs and stood up, his eyes filled with composure as if he had won a battle.
"If you stay in the country to study, I will suspend all your credit cards!"
A water cup hit Tao Xingye's feet, glass splattered everywhere and even affected Tao Xinghai.
However, Tao Xingye, who was at the center of the accident, turned a deaf ear and left the room without even stopping.
The cold war between Tao Xingguo and Tao Xingye had been going on since that day, with neither of them willing to give in. They were both eager to push the other to the brink of collapse, so how could they possibly give the other a way out?
Neither of the two parties took this coldness seriously, and the one who suffered was Tao Xinghai, who had nothing to do with the incident.
Why? Because our Tao Xinghai always loved to chat with Tao Xingguo and share with him all the time at the dinner table.
Now, when Tao Xingguo sees Tao Xingye, his face will immediately freeze. This leads to a situation where the father and son are chatting happily in the last second, and in the next second, Tao Xingguo shuts up as if someone has pulled out his hair, leaving Tao Xinghai a madman "talking to himself".
What's even more exaggerated is that Tao Xingguo didn't say that his cold face started only when Tao Xingye walked in front of him, but that he started to exude displeasure as soon as Tao Xingye appeared in his sight.
That day, Tao Xinghai was talking when his father's face froze again. He had long been accustomed to this, so he turned around and saw that Tao Xingye was ten meters away from them, not even walking towards them, but heading out with his hands in his pockets!
He was really impressed!
On the first day of school at No. 1 Middle School, Tao Xingye had a smile on his face for the first time in two months.
His card was suspended and the driver was naturally fired. For the first time in his life, Mr. Tao had to take the bus to school.
Tao Xinghai was sitting in a car that day and happened to pass by the bus stop. He saw his brother standing in front of a crowd with a schoolbag in his hand, looking out of place.
He drove more than a hundred meters away and just when he changed his mind and wanted to turn back to pick up Tao Xingye, he saw Tao Xingye getting on the bus in the rearview mirror.
Tao Xingye held the handle uncomfortably. The driver drove unsteadily and he was swaying with the car. He never gets carsick, but he almost vomited when they arrived at the station.
He suppressed the nausea in his heart and ran impatiently to the class division board to look for Lin Yu's name.
Among the densely packed names, he almost immediately spotted the two words "Lin Yu".
Going further, he found his name again.
He and Lin Yu are indeed in the same class.
Mr. Tao squeezed out of the crowd, humming a song as he headed towards the classroom. As expected, he saw Lin Yu in the class.
He had noticed before at Tianya that Lin Yu liked to do everything nearly an hour early, and he didn't expect that he hadn't changed this habit yet.
"Lin Xiaomai, see you again!" Before he arrived, he threw his schoolbag next to Lin Yu.
Lin Yu glanced at the schoolbag before turning to look at him. Tao Xingye's expression was particularly flamboyant at that time, with his back to the light, and a layer of silver light surrounded him.
There was an ambiguous smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyebrows raised, but he looked more calm than before.
Lin Yu stared at him for a long time before she understood why she had such a contradictory feeling. The problem was in his eyes.
His amber eyes were naturally lazy and casual, not to mention that they were full of tenderness.
Lin Yu's face flushed, "Long time no see."
Tao Xingye didn't sit to her right, but pushed Lin Yu to the left with confidence.
They sat in the third row of the classroom again, with him on the left and Lin Yu on the right.
He thought, since they were desk mates again, this time, he must make good friends with Lin Yu.
During the days he spent in the village, he was always struggling. The idea of staying in the country suddenly took root in his heart. He found many reasons to go abroad, but they were all overturned by himself.
Stay, stay, the voice became louder and louder. He could not stay any longer and ran home that day to confess to Tao Xingguo.
In the days that followed, he became more and more excited, and Tao Xingye's eyes fell on Lin Yu without any concealment.
Lin Yu felt uncomfortable being stared at by him. She looked up and glared at him, but he still followed her closely, even getting more intense, and looked at her with his chin propped up.
"Tao Xingye..." Lin Yu hesitated, "Are you in a good mood now?"
"That's good." Tao Xingye thought that he was not hiding it at this moment.
"Then can you tell me the news about Jiang Shuang?" Lin Yu's eyes lit up, his tone was excited, and there was even a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Why is it Jiang Shuang again? Tao Xingye stared at Lin Yu, his eyes growing darker and darker.
