Twenty rings

Chapter 17

He knew what his mother meant, even if you have a girlfriend, it's no better than Ye Lan.

Xia Ke also didn't sleep that night, he was weighing one question over and over again, maybe two.

He has guessed for a long time what Shangtang's feelings for him are, does he like me?To say that their relationship is as good as gay, who and who are brothers who get along well in college don't look gay?The old horse next door and the fourth child are really inseparable, sleeping and eating, but it's just a pure and passionate brotherhood.After guessing for two years, I finally figured out that he just likes me, right?I also like him, so I came out first, and then sent roses to make it clear.What I got was the word "brother".

As for Minmin, he never thought about his feelings for Minmin, senior brother and junior junior brother.I thought Zhou Minmin treated him the same way, but I didn't expect...it was different.

Since he misjudged Zhou Minmin, maybe even Shang Tang guessed wrong—maybe Shang Tang really only regarded him as a brother, and he liked the girl surnamed Ye.After all, Mr. Shang disliked him quite a lot, but he didn't dislike the girl surnamed Ye, on the contrary, he admired it very much.That girl was the type that Shang Tang dreamed of, with long hair, a standing posture similar to him, and a straight back, but she was not like a javelin stretched into a javelin that could break at any time.

She can complement him, and these two people will make a couple that everyone admires.

That would be a very good thing.

The next day, the old horse and the fourth child next door saw him and were shocked.

"Old Xia, Lao Xia, what's wrong with you! Was your energy sucked by some goblin?"

The fourth child also sighed in a low voice: "It's miserable! It's too miserable!"

"Communists are all materialists and don't believe in goblins." Xia Ke said slowly and deeply: "Marx is watching you from the sky."

As soon as this comrade with a firm belief put on his overcoat, there were two consecutive reading sessions on Saturdays and Sundays.

In the small auditorium, students from the drama club are rehearsing the second half of the script.

There are many figures, after all, they are professional, and the first row is quite poised.Xia Ke watched for 30 seconds, and Director Xue came over with the script: "You really don't have the burden of being an idol."

"what?"

Director Xue couldn't bear to stare at him: "Your eye circles, eye bags, bloodshot eyes, and beard stubble, nine out of ten of the younger brothers and sisters will immediately be disillusioned when they see it."

Shake didn't speak.

She took off her glasses and wiped them: "Didn't you look at your phone, the father of your chamber of commerce had an accident in the early morning, and he flew to his hometown. Today's speech will be cancelled."

Xia Ke said, "I'll just watch it for a while."

Xue Chaoyang looked at him, said nothing, and left.

Li Ying still had a stern face, and she came even though she hadn't read the words, euphemistically called "caring about the progress".Carrying his schoolbag, he walked towards Director Xue with straight steps, and when he saw Xia Ke was there, he asked, "What's wrong with President Xia?"

When Senior Sister Xue saw Junior Brother Fresh and Shuinen, she was already smiling in her heart, but on the surface she still wanted to maintain a superior demeanor: "I'm so haggard because of Yixiao."

Shangtang went to the city where his father lived on Sunday afternoon.

He texted his dad's assistant before boarding the plane and saw the reply when he landed.

The driver was already waiting for him at the airport, and wanted to carry his luggage, but found that he had no luggage, so he rushed to welcome him into the car: "Mr. Shang wants me to take you home."

That home is his father and his father's wife's home, not his home.

Shang Tang said: "No, go directly to the hospital."

The ward where his father lives has ward beds inside and a small reception room outside.There are so many people who come to visit the patients that the flowers and fresh fruits can't be put down.There were several vases of flowers in the reception room, and there were even vases and flower pots on the corridor outside the reception room. Some people gave the pots blooming rhododendrons and other flowers.

His dad's new wife—not really new—was peeling apples.It was a very gentle and beautiful woman in her 30s, ten years younger than his father.Seeing him flustered for a while, and then quickly put down the knife, he smiled a little embarrassedly: "Why did you come to the hospital just after getting off the plane? Xiaoshang, sit down quickly, sit down quickly, your father fell asleep on the infusion, and will wake up later. I Peel him an apple."

Shang Tang said, "Thank you, Auntie."

He sat like an outsider, and was an outsider.

Aunt Lu talked to him carefully. The villa his father lives in was built four years ago. It has four floors. His room has been kept since the renovation, as well as his small theater and indoor exercise room. In the exercise room There are basket baskets.His father always remembered that his son liked movies and basketball when he was in elementary school.

Shang Tang only felt the sarcasm and reluctantly responded.

Lu Shiyan was even more embarrassed and stopped talking.

Is it because the stepmother has no confidence in her grown-up stepson, or is it because his father is short in front of his son, which makes the stepmother shorter.

Shang Tang said: "My dad seems to be awake."

Lu Shiyan woke up like a dream, stood up and went in with an apple.Peel and core the apples, cut into cubes, and stick on sticks.

Shang Tang went in behind her. His father was lying under the quilt, not wearing a hospital gown, shirt and trousers. He returned to the office during the hospitalization, and returned to the hospital after the meeting.Seeing his son happy, he quickly said: "Xiao Lu, what apples are you peeling for me? Cut some fruit for my son. He likes sweet kirin fruit. Cut some."

Lu Shiyan didn't speak, just pursed her lips and smiled, taking something away from Shang Jingxin's hands.Shang Tang looked at it coldly, it was a warm water bag for warming hands.

That night, Shang Tang stayed in bed in the hospital.

He would rather sleep on the sofa in the reception room than live in his dad's new home.

It's not that I can't get along with Aunt Lu, it's just that I always have a hard time getting along.

He doesn't like basketball, and he never eats sweets.His father only went home to have dinner with his son once when he was in elementary school, and there was a slam dunk on TV, so he remembered that his son liked basketball.And because his son ate a candy he brought back from abroad, it was recorded as his son eating candy.

Shang Tang walked out of the corridor after his father fell asleep. There were not many wards on this floor of the hospital. There were doctors and nurses staying behind, but the corridor was empty and no one was very quiet.The corridor lights in the hospital were never turned off, and he suddenly missed the street lights in the school. The last time he paid attention to the street lights at night, he saw snowflakes flying in the dim light in front of his eyes, and behind him was the half-asleep and half-awake man who was slowly dragging his feet.

When he came back to his senses, the phone was already in his hand, and he clicked on the number of that person in the address book.The bastard must have not slept, Shang Tang was inexplicably sure, thinking of him would make him angry, no matter how late he was looking for, he would get a reply within 10 minutes.The bastard always seems to only sleep during the day and never sleep at night, treating him like a man of iron and ruining it desperately.

Shang Tang misses that person very much, but doesn't know how to call him.

Xia Ke was playing cards with the two in the dormitory next door.Pulled a Xu Dongliang.

Xu Dongliang does not belong to Shakola, but to Lao Ma and Lao Si.In Xu Xiao’s class, except for Zhou Minmin, who has a top background and grades, and strives to get close, the rest of the people who try to get close are all the seniors who are studying in graduate school, especially the graduate students.

Xiao Xu is always a little afraid of this senior Xia. Ever since he was a rookie in the student union, every time he wanted to be good, he would always look at him with a smile on his face, but his eyes made me feel that he could see into my heart at a glance, and see how heavy I was. .The juniors he likes are pure ideals like Min Min and Li Ying, but he is so snobbish.

When I came back, I was shocked to see Xia Ke. He didn't dare to speak during the whole game, and kept smiling shyly.

Xia Ke was stuck with a white strip on his forehead, and when he blew it, it made a loud noise.

He tore off a handful: "I'm going to smoke a cigarette."

After he went out, Xu Dongliang began to inquire: "Senior Xia...why did you lose like this?"

Just now I gave him cards a few times, but he turned a blind eye.

The old horse shuffled the cards and looked out, sighed: "When he wants to win, how can he not win? He just wants to lose. Whenever this kid feels uncomfortable, he will change his ways to want to lose."
