Song about you

Chapter 18

I still have to pay a little price to make up for the temporary leisure time.After returning to school, Knights' work suddenly became busy again.Large and small activities emerge in endlessly, and this rhythm already has the unique atmosphere of the end of the year.

Quan dealt with each task in an orderly manner. Although he didn't have much free time, he didn't feel overwhelming pressure.

Such a state of stability is rare.When Quan is alone, he will think about the origin of this state for a while, and it is not difficult to realize that this is actually something brought by Leo.

It's amazing, that guy obviously doesn't show up often, it's better to say that looking for him when necessary adds some unnecessary steps to everyone's work, but he does give everyone a sense of security that they didn't have before.Probably this is the power of the "king", right?

Although—forget it.A thought circled in his mind, and was immediately waved away by him.Izumi pushed open the door of the studio, and squinted comfortably because of the oncoming warm breath.

"You obviously said a lot of very passionate things before, why are you hiding here and being lazy now?"

For some reason, the three lower grades were not there.A bit of orange hair peeked out from the edge of the kotatsu, and Izumi walked over to find Leo lying inside on the other side of the table.He also sat down at the table, looked at Leo, rubbed his eyes, and looked over with a somewhat dazed expression: "Forget it, how many of them are there?"

"Hmm——" Leo's expression was not so clear, "did I be taken away by the cosmic beings while I was asleep?"

Knowing that he would not get any reliable answers from him, Quan took out his phone and checked, and sure enough, he received a message from Lan.Due to some temporary work reasons, the other three people left together for a while, and will come back a little later.

"Before then, let's take a rest, the next filming will be very troublesome."

Quan dryly read Lan's message in its entirety, then whispered a few of his usual complaints. Leo leaned over and rested his chin on the table, next to his hand.Quan stared at him for a while, then suddenly remembered the things he packed in his bag before going out.He took out a bag of oranges from his belongings—because he had just been brought in from the cold outside, and the skin was still a bit cool at the moment—then he took one from the middle and stuck it to Leo’s on the cheek.

"Wow!"

Quan withdrew his hand unmoved, and put the remaining few oranges in the middle of the table: "Did you say you wanted to eat before?"

"Evil-hearted Sena, that one was too cold just now!" Leo complained, picking carefully from the oranges that Izumi placed on the table.Quan stared at him for a while, then dug out the schedule that he carried with him, and took advantage of his free time to confirm the next work arrangement.

"Ah." Quan suddenly remembered something when he turned over a page of the schedule book. He raised his head and glanced at the other person in the room, "Shall we go to worship together this year's New Year?"

Leo didn't answer right away. He was lying on the small table, kneading an orange very intently, then deftly cut open the soft orange peel with one hand, and pulled out a plump petal from the inside——and then lifted the Put your hand into Izumi's mouth.

"Pfft," Quan's face wrinkled all of a sudden, and he paused before he could speak, "...this is so sour!"

The instigator who obviously acted like this on purpose laughed loudly, showing a satisfied expression, sank the whole person into the kotatsu again, and pulled a pillow that someone didn't know who put it there, "Recorded a thing last night A lot of inspiration, I'm really sleepy, I also want to learn from Linyue—ah, it's really comfortable..."

Although the space under the kotatsu isn't too narrow, it can't really be said to be spacious. Leo's legs stretched out, toes resting on Izumi's calf.Quan moved slightly, but the guy didn't move away immediately, so he just let himself go and didn't make any more movements.Leo didn't answer his question just now, but it doesn't matter, he already knew the reason and answer, and even received a little Leo characteristic punishment for asking this boring question.

The lower grade members didn't know when they would come back, and the room became quiet, with a relaxing orange smell.Izumi sat there in a daze for a while, and then took out the handiwork he was doing recently from his carry-on bag—this time he brought orange wool with him.

Glove knitting is really troublesome, so let's take advantage of the time now.

The location of the New Year's visit was chosen in a temple a little far away, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble.Quan also asked the other members of the Knights. Linyue bypassed the question whether she was really sleeping or pretending to be asleep. Lan only said that she had made an appointment with a friend, and Si said that it was a rare opportunity to spend the New Year with her parents in China.All in all, it's just the two of them.

It's very easy to explain to my parents. When talking about my companions, I can also describe it as "the same Tsukinaga-kun who went to worship together last year".Thinking back after Quan said this sentence, he was surprised to find that so many things that made him feel so long ago and long time only happened in the past year.

Should this be a long or short year?There are too many things that have changed, and some things are gone forever, and some things are lost and found again.A year ago, I was still stepping on the boat of youth, so now, I am standing in front of the entrance of the next world, right?

——Before stepping through that door, put your own deliberation into reality under the guise of willfulness that can still be used as an excuse now.

He went out alone on the last day of the year.In order to welcome the arrival of the New Year, the streets in the commercial district are decorated with colorful neon lights, and the pedestrians on the street are bustling, and he walked through the crowd, humming a song without realizing it——exactly It's not even a song, because it's not a complete song, just a melody that Leo sometimes sings recently, not quite finished, but good enough that Quan has even thought about that song written by Knights in How appropriate would it be to perform on stage.

He stopped for a while in front of the mall, squinted his eyes when looking up at the shiny billboards, just like the ordinary passers-by around him.But only Quan knew what kind of decision he was making.He is not a person who is keen on the sense of ritual, but sometimes, a little sense of ritual is still essential.

So decide.he thinks.I know I won't regret it.

"What wish did you make, Sena?" Together they walked out of the area where worshipers gathered along the path, and the place a little further ahead was full of food stalls, but unexpectedly there were no people around.Quan felt Leo's sneaky glance when he rang the bell, but he still turned a blind eye and didn't respond.Just as he was about to say something, Leo added to the question he asked, "I've already thought about it—ahahaha, now is the time to verify it!"

"It won't work if you say it?" Quan said lazily, "It's nothing special. It's probably just something like everything going well. There are several important things to do this year."

"Oh——" Leo seemed to think for a while, and then he continued with a brisk tone, "Because I'm about to graduate, there will be a lot of changes, right?"

"Probably," Quan didn't admit or deny.He took a deep breath, then stopped suddenly. Leo also stopped immediately, and turned to look at him with some doubts.

"Compared to that, there is something I want to give you."

Saying so, he handed over what was in his hand.

It was a square box, wrapped in dark suede.
