IV

Youth is bright but short, in the blink of an eye, spring is over and summer is here.

The weather was getting hot, the school uniforms had turned into white T-shirts, there was another study session, the sun was rising, and the air-conditioning in the classroom didn't really work.

Pei Xu put down her pen, stretched out her fingers, relieved the fatigue of her fingers, and then pressed her hand against the back of her neck, turning her neck a little.

As soon as he turned his head, he realized Di Xingchen was lying facing him.

Everyone is studying, only Di Xingchen is sleeping.

The sunlight shone on his white glowing face, not a single pore could be seen, as clean as jade, probably because of the sunlight, his lips looked especially red.

How can anyone have lips that are so vibrant and cleanly shaped that they just look soft.

Pei Xu looked away for a moment, pursed her lips for a moment, then opened the history book and put it on the window. The history book cast a shadow on the desk, covering Di Xingchen's face.

Pei Xu pulls Di Xingchen's workbook out from under his arm and examines the work Di Xingchen has written.

Di Xingchen's characters were still so ugly, but perhaps he was used to seeing them, or perhaps he had gotten used to seeing them, he actually thought that such ugly characters also had their own cute features.

Such a beautiful person, writing such ugly characters.

Or maybe it doesn't have anything to do with the word itself.

That's Di Xingchen's character.

Di Xingchen woke up in the middle of a correction.

Di Xingchen woke up and looked at him with open eyes that were still sleepy but extraordinarily tender, looking at him as if he were looking at someone he had loved for a long time.

In such a quiet moment, Pei Xu didn't disturb him, only saying, "All of this has to be redone."

Di Xingchen wailed softly and slumped over the table, covering his head.

Pei Xu laughed.

Di Xingchen found that the adult Pei Xu was not so different from the Pei Xu in middle school.

Big Pei Xu and Little Pei Xu have some of the same things in their bones.

For example, they are all very sultry, for example, they are all very good at pretending to be high maintenance, for example, if they like someone, they become very gentlemanly and considerate, and they all change very much.

It was another weekend, and the two of them came out of the library and went back to the night market where they had last been.

Pei Xu is carrying two bags with milk tea and barbecue in her hand.

"Barbecue you need to eat less, it's not good for your health." Pei Xu said.

Just as he finished speaking, Di Xingchen handed over the grilled sausage in his hand.

Pei Xu stopped talking and quietly opened her mouth to take a bite.

"Is it good?" Di Xingchen asked.

Pei Xu nods.

"Their kielbasa is really good, they all make their own kielbasa." Di Xingchen said.

Pei Xu smiled and handed up the milk tea in her hand. Di Xingchen reaches out to pick it up and realizes he has a handful of oil.

"I'll take it, you drink it." Pei Xu said.

Di Xingchen took a few sips through the straw.

"Are you tired of it?" Pei Xu asked.

"A little."

The BBQ was already oily and the yangzhi manna was overly sweet.

Pei Xu said, "You wait."

Said Pei Xu and ran towards the milk tea store next door.

Di Xingchen looks across the crowd at Pei Xu.

It's not a bad day.

Not long after, Pei Xu came back with a glass of watermelon juice in her hand.

"Chilled, a little cold, you drink slowly." Pei Xu said.

Di Xingchen took two sips, a little icy, and when he was done he opened his mouth, "It's good."

Pei Xu then smiled and wiped his mouth with a tissue.

"You try it too, it's cold and so good."

Pei Xu then took two sips, Di Xingchen smiled at Pei Xu's slightly red ear and reached out to poke it.

Pei Xu What a reaction, almost spilling the watermelon juice in her glass.

"So sensitive." Di Xingchen laughed badly and drew a paper towel to Pei Xu to wipe the watermelon juice on her hands.

More considerate during breaks, but harsher when tutoring him in his homework.

Pei Xu has set a very strict schedule for him, calling him regularly every morning to wake him up, and leaving a little later every evening to check all his tasks for the day.

Pei Xu cold face, holding a red pen, brushed and crossed several times.

"Then it's not like I'm study material." Di Xingchen said.

"So you won't study?" Pei Xu asks, "Then what will you do in the future?"

It's harsh.

Di Xingchen says, "I want to take dance lessons."

"Going to the dance now?"

"I have the basics!" Di Xingchen said.

Pei Xu When he was giving excuses for not loving to study.

"I can still be a food anchor, I'm a good cook. Actually, it's okay to open a restaurant, but it's a bit too much work." Di Xingchen continues.

Pei Xu brushed and ticked off a few questions, "Do it, I'll do it with you and go back afterward."

Di Xingchen plopped down on the table.

By the time he finished those questions, it was nine o'clock at night.

Their classrooms were going out, and it was those students who lived on campus who had already gone back to their dormitories.

After the lights went out in the classrooms, the security guards started patrolling one floor at a time with flashlights.

The two of them were coming down from the school building, the moon was full and big, the moonlight was especially good, and the occasional jogger ran past them on the playground.

Di Xingchen stretched, "Going to the bathroom, are you going?"

Pei Xu then followed him towards the restroom.

There's a restroom on the east side of the playground, where some students are smoking, and Pei Xu frowns when she enters.

Di Xingchen unzips his pants and turns his head to Pei Xu.

Pei Xu: "......"

As a result, Di Xingchen didn't turn his head at all and continued to look at him.

Pei Xu stayed put and waited for Di Xingchen to finish.

Di Xingchen put on his pants and went out, waiting for Pei Xu outside.

Soon Pei Xu came out and washed his hands outside. It was hot, and after a long day of class, Di Xingchen washed his face. He screwed the faucet back on, and with a smile, he turned his head to Pei Xu: "Why didn't you dare to unzip your pants in front of me? What's the matter?

Pei Xu felt a vivid mood, his ears were red, but his expression was fierce. He reached out and stuck his hand on the back of Di Xingchen's neck. His hand was cold and Di Xingchen flinched and ran away.

He runs ahead, and Pei Xu follows behind with a smile.

Di Xingchen ran a few steps, moved his muscles, and said, "I'll show you my basics."

He finished with a slight stretch, then with a slight lift, he held his right leg in a golden chicken stand.

Pei Xu looked straight up dumbfounded.

Di Xingchen, however, didn't stop there; he took a few easy and lazy jumps, then with a flick of his arms, he spun for two weeks in quick succession, ending with a front flip and a beautiful front bridge in the clouds.

Valiant and light.

Pei Xu: "......"

Di Xingchen raised an eyebrow, "Well?"

"Do you really know how to dance?" Pei Xu asked.

"I've learned it before." Di Xingchen said and gave Pei Xu another full dance.

He danced the Lanling King dance, which was certainly not as good as on Red and Blue Signal, but it was enough to open Mr. Pei's eyes.

"Did I dance well?" Di Xingchen asked Pei Xu.

Pei Xu nods, her eyes burning a little, and says, "Good."

"How?" Di Xingchen asked, leaning closer to him.

They stood under the shadows of the trees where the streetlights couldn't shine, blurry and hazy, only vaguely able to smell the warm aroma of each other's bodies.

Pei Xu, on the other hand, didn't say anything.

Di Xingchen on the contrary, leaned closer: "How come Mr. Pei always doesn't like to answer me. Is he thinking that I am particularly flexible and can do this and that."

"Why are you so wavy."

"Huh?"

Pei Xu blushed slightly, "Why are you so ...... colorful."

Di Xingchen blushed all of a sudden.

Although Pei Xu has said many embarrassing things in bed, using much more violent words than this, Di Xingchen is still shy when she first hears a teenage Pei Xu say something like this.

When he blushes, Pei Xu blushes even more.

A student ran over to him with a grunt and a huff, and Pei Xu took him by the hand and walked across the long playground to the front gate before Pei Xu let go of him, but both hands were already wet with sweat.

Di Xingchen went and rode his bike over.

Pei Xu said, "It's so late, is it safe to ride back, take a taxi, I'll give you a ride."

"Then I'll still have to ride my bike to school tomorrow. It's not like my house is far from the school."

Pei Xu then gave the backpack to Di Xingchen.

Di Xingchen didn't understand what he meant and received both of their school bags into his arms.

He saw Pei Xu gripping the handlebars and realized what he meant, smiling and asking, "You're giving me a ride home, huh?"

Pei Xu gave a "hmmm".

Di Xingchen says, "Want to stay with me a little longer?"

Pei Xu gave an honest "hmm" this time.

Di Xingchen usually likes to tease Pei Xu, mainly because Pei Xu in middle school was very shy and far less determined than in adulthood, so it's fun to tease her.

But when he saw Pei Xu's honest "hmmm", he didn't feel like teasing him anymore.

He sat in the backseat with his bag in his arms, and Pei Xu drove him out of the school.

"I'm going to fall." Di Xingchen says from behind, "Brother Pei, can I hold your waist?"

Pei Xu doesn't say a word, Di Xingchen laughs on his shoulder, then puts his backpack on his shoulder, and there's no longer a gap between them, so he leans on Pei Xu's back.

Pei Xu's back body stiffened and straightened like a pole.

Di Xingchen then clasped him around the waist.

Pei Xu's waist was lean, and he could smell the faint minty scent of Pei Xu's body.

The minty scent he was familiar with, the minty scent he was conditioned to smell at the first whiff.

Pei Xu kept sending him downstairs to their house.

"I'm here."

Pei Xu gave a "hmmm".

Because of the heat and cycling, he also sweats easily, and his back, next to Di Xingchen's, is wet.

"Then I'll go." He said to Di Xingchen.

He reaches over and takes his book bag from Di Xingchen.

"Get an early night and I'll see you tomorrow."

Pei Xu looked at Di Xingchen.

But neither moved, and Di Xingchen and Pei Xu, in their late teens, were somewhere between teenagers and men, tall in stature but still with a youthful edge.

"I'm going to kiss you now, will you be scared off." Di Xingchen suddenly said.

Di Xingchen's words were the same as the usual jokes, but what was different was that today Di Xingchen was especially serious, and there was no trace of a smile on his face.

What's it like to kiss a teenage Pei Xu? Di Xingchen would like to know.

Pei Xu has lost sleep.

He tossed and turned during the night and could not sleep any more. Although the night was almost sleepless, he got up early the next morning, brushed his teeth and washed his face, he immediately called Di Xingchen.

"Get up." He said.

Di Xingchen's voice was still sleepy, "Huh?"

"Ah what, get up, I'm going to buy breakfast, don't eat at home, I'll wait for you in front of Spring and Park." Pei Xu said.

After hanging up the phone, Pei Xu came downstairs with her bag.

The aunt of the house chased her out and said, "No breakfast?"

"I'm not anymore, I'm in a hurry." Pei Xu said.

Twenty minutes later, Pei Xu stood in front of Chunhe Park with her breakfast.

Occasionally a classmate hurried past him.

Just around the corner on this side was Qingli Middle School, and across the park was a large residential area where many students rented apartments, some of whom recognized him and peeked at him.

"So handsome."

"Looks familiar."

"Pei Xue Shen ah, he you do not even recognize, which time to open the General Assembly is not he on the stage speech ah."

"Ah, it's him, I say."

Pei Xu ignored, coldly stood on the side of the road, expressionless, slightly smelly face. He was wearing a white T-shirt, carrying a black school bag, and carrying food in his hand, like a small white flower blooming in the park in the early morning.

He looked at his watch and estimated that Di Xingchen should have arrived by normal speed.

Did you sleep in again?

He'd just pulled out his cell phone when he suddenly heard a few jingles in the distance, and when he looked up, he saw Di Xingchen on his bike, standing up and pedaling, speeding toward him.

A wanton teenager, so intent that the wind blew his hair up.

The bright and sunny Di Xingchen directly pounced into his heart, and his heart brightened up with the youthful look.

Stinky-faced Pei Xu smiles as she waves her hand.
