Episode 8 "Cats Who Want to Become Human" 9
Qi Qi and Chen Ziran made Xiang Gu guess a lot.
In fact, before that, Xiang Guai began to reflect on his relationship with Cen Manchuan.
He always believed that there was love between them-they liked each other and worked hard to integrate into each other's world. If this is not love, then what is love?
But he could not deny that this love (let's call it love) made Xiangchai tired.
It is not that Cen Manchuan did not do well enough. A former straight man fell in love with him at the first sight, actively pursued, and even quarreled with his brothers; he also listened to musicals that he didn't understand at all; sent to guessed jerseys; even sold his favorite motorcycle ...
Xiang Gui laughed at himself: If you change the story, Cen Manchuan is the perfect male lead, and he is a fine boyfriend who doesn't know what to do.
But Xiang Gu was really tired.
One of them is too young and the other is too mature.
Xiang Guai's life jumped out on his own feet. He only had himself, so he had to let himself grow quickly. Cen Manchuan, like every ordinary and happy male college student in this world, has the biggest trouble in life is that he can't get up in the morning.
Xiang Guai has been trying to make Cen Manchuan think like an adult, but he is worried that he is pulling up seedlings. After all, the most lovely part of Cen Manchuan is his sunshine, liveliness, and innocence.
They are like two mismatched gears. If they continue to run in, they will lose both.
He is fine, so is he.
But two good people don't necessarily have a happy relationship that everyone is acquainted with.
And now ... to guess, it's time to end this love.
Unexpectedly, they still failed to escape the curse of breaking up after graduation.
Xiang Guai wants to make an appointment with Cen Manchuan, talk about it, and draw a period for this relationship.
Unfortunately, both of them are nearing graduation and there are many things to prepare.
Therefore, this matter can only be delayed again and again.
Xiang Guai is the most dazzling one among the graduates of Huacheng Dance Academy. Because he rose straight from the affiliated middle school, his miserable life was known to everyone from the moment he stepped into the gate of the university.
Xiang Guai is looking at all the students in the school, striving to dance, sing, and step on the stage ... In the end, he turned all those pity into worship.
There is no doubt that Xiang Guigao Gao was elected as the representative of the outstanding graduates of this year. Not only will the principal personally pick the ears, but he will also speak on behalf of all the graduates.
Graduation ceremony can invite relatives and friends to attend, but Xiang Guai's situation is special, his parents have been silent for six years, I have no idea of life or death, and no other relatives.
Xiang Guaiben wanted to invite Cen Manchuan to attend, but given their embarrassing relationship, Xiang Guai could not speak at all.
In other words, when he stood in front of the microphone, no one from the audience came for him.
Even if you are as strong as you guess, you will inevitably feel lonely at this time.
There are only a few hundred graduates of Huawu each year. Together with the graduates' family members, only a large gym can be installed.
Xiang Guai was wearing a bachelor's uniform with a pink trim on the wide cloak, which made him look fair and handsome.
As soon as he appeared, there was a commotion in the audience. No matter whether it is a student or a parent, everyone inadvertently raised his mobile phone and took a picture of him.
Someone joked, "Wait a few more years, and I'm going to be so hot. I'll let this video out and it will definitely make fans scream!"
No one could hear the argument of the audience.
His gaze fell into the distance, his eyes firm, with a smile.
He spoke, the boy's clear and bright voice drifting from the sound, echoing in the gym.
"When I was 12 years old, I stepped into the gate of the Huawu High School. At that time, I told myself that my only goal in my life was to get on the stage and jump out of my dream with my feet." He paused , And continued, "I am now 23 years old. Although there have been some deviations in this dream chasing journey, I have never forgotten the spotlight on the stage, and I dare not forget my dreams. I would like to thank Hua Wu, in these ten One year of training for me; I want to thank my teachers and classmates for their encouragement and tolerance; I also want to thank myself that I did not give up dancing even after suffering setbacks ... "
All the audience in the audience was listening quietly.
At this time, Xiang Guai did not know that, far from the other end of the network, there was a person "for him" who was watching his every move.
A few days ago, Tan Yiming learned that Hua Wu was about to hold a graduation ceremony. He even asked someone if he could get to the graduation ceremony. There was no place for him. In the end, he could only return without help.
Thanks again for the development of the online world-the little **** from Xiang Guai class, live broadcast the graduation ceremony on the app as usual.
Tan Yiming pushed off all the work and stood in front of the phone, looking at the little figure in the screen almost greedily.
He rewarded Xiaoyaxing with several yachts and asked the other party to zoom in. Looking at the red envelope in the account, Xiaohonghong was crazy and mad, and quickly zoomed in to zoom in again, so that the tall and slim figure filled the entire screen.
"How about, our monitor is very good, right?" Xiao Wanghong's tone was admirable, "Sing well, dance well, look handsome. When he's gone, I'll let him tell everyone Say hello! "
Xiang Guai's speech was very short, only ten minutes, but Tan Yiming listened very carefully, and wished to record every word and every sentence in his heart.
When the speech was over, Xiang Gui took the diploma from the principal, straightened his back, and shook hands with the principal to take a photo.
The photographer responsible for taking pictures was hired outside, standing under the stage and shouting enthusiastically: "Little classmate, your family, you can call up your family to take a photo together."
"..." Xiang Guai smiled and answered calmly, "I have no family."
And this scene was also broadcast by the mobile phone of Xiaohonghong.
Tan Yiming was anxious, and he hurriedly typed a question: [No family members to Xiang Gu? 】
There are not many fans of small netizens, and even fewer people watch live broadcasts. Tan Yiming's question was very conspicuous, and it floated to the top of the barrage.
Xiaohonghong gave me a break: "Are you a fan of Xiang Gu?"
Tan Yiming Input: [Well, I'm a fan of his musical]
Xiaohonghong was not stunned by those yachts, and said very politely: "This is a private matter of our squad leader and cannot be said."
Others are asking: [Are the parents of that little handsome guy dead? 】
Little net red poked her lips: "Some parents, it's better to live fart early!"
No matter how many, the little net red refused to say.
But that alone is enough to make up for the brains of people watching live broadcasts.
Tan Yiming's heart sank. Once again, he was blocked by the invisible wall. He knew too little about Xiang Gu, he was eager to know what had happened to that boy, he wanted to enter his life, he wanted to enter his world.
Because he knew deeply that if he could not know the past of Xiang Guai, he could not accompany his future.
Of course ... it's too early to say this.
Xiang Gu was accompanied by Cen Manchuan. Tan Yiming's sense of morality prevented him from being a third party involved in other people's feelings, but he-he was really sorry about it-he could not sincerely send a blessing to the little couple.
All he can do is to block himself at the other end of the network and watch his beloved boy from afar.
Not approaching, not touching, not doing anything in the ambiguous range ... but he will keep watching.
...
When Xiang Gui finished his speech and returned to the seating area of the class, one of his classmates came up with a mobile phone.
"To Guess to Guess!" Said the classmate cheerfully, "I'm broadcasting, can you say hello to the audience in my studio?"
Xiangchai readily agreed, saying hi to the camera generously.
"That's right!" Said netizen. "I still have a fan of your musical in the live studio, and I've rewarded a lot of yachts." He looked at the screen. "Are you a fan of locals? Your idol is here Send a barrage! "
But no matter how he urged him, the screen was quiet. The fan of the local fan who just spent a lot of money just didn't know when he had disappeared.
After the graduation ceremony, it seemed as if the entire dormitory building was empty overnight.
Two of Xiangchai's three roommates have found a job, ready to be an extra-curricular teacher, and one is preparing for the second world war entrance examination.
Only the one who stayed there was Xiang Guai.
Intimate partners in four years at university, in a blink of an eye, scattered around. Their luggage has been packed. After eating the last casual meal, they will embark on a new road of life the next morning.
Only to guess, the daily necessities, books and clothes were not packed.
Someone asked Xiang Gui why he didn't pack his luggage.
Shaking his head to Guai: "I'm not in a hurry. Didn't the school give notice before, graduates don't have to move out of the dormitory so quickly, they can stay until August, as long as the freshmen can move out before entering."
This is a bonus for the school. The school knows that graduates are not easy to work with, they have tight hands, and it is expensive to rent a house outside, so they are allowed to live in the dormitory for a longer period of time at a low price, and to spend the first difficult period.
Always guessing the day has always been carefully calculated, and submitted an extension of residence application early.
He originally planned that this summer, he could live alone in the school dormitory, wait until Cen Manchuan worked to earn money, and they would find a house to move out together.
But now it seems that this plan can never be realized.
When the dormitory was empty, Xiang Gui had more time to think about his relationship with Cen Manchuan.
Before making up his mind to break up, he asked himself numerous times, "Is there any way to save this relationship?"
But he racked his brains, but couldn't think of a way to change.
This is Xiang Guai's first love relationship. He has read countless literary works and played countless men trapped in love on the stage. He thinks he understands countless looks of love.
But it wasn't until he really experienced love that he understood what a love really meant.
-It represents a period of happy and painful growth.
Xiang Guai didn't know how to speak with Cen Manchuan, and after thinking about it, he decided to write a letter and give it to the other person in person.
...
That letter was written very quickly, without any alterations as expected, and Xiang Gui wrote a lot of things he wanted to say and couldn't say.
At the same time, he also washed the basketball shirt that the boy gave him, folded it neatly, and put it in the bag together.
Xiang Gusu waited for Cen Manchuan to meet him after the graduation ceremony. He did not expect that he had not spoken yet, but Cen Manchuan called him first.
"Guess!" On the phone, the boy was gleeful. "You two o'clock in the afternoon the day after tomorrow, you must come to our school gym, I have a game !!"
"..." Xiang Gua was a little bit embarrassed, and just wanted to refuse, Cen Manchuan spoke again.
"This game is not the same. Our school invited the seniors of the provincial team to play a friendly match with our graduates! Everyone in the basketball department will come to watch the game, as well as the teachers and parents!" Cen Manchuan sprang up on the phone Come, like the golden retriever who cares about the owner, "Guess, you must come! This is the last game in our university, this game is very meaningful !!"
The boy's voice was full of invitations. Listening to what he said so solemnly, Xiang Guai couldn't say anything about rejection.
... forget it.
Conjecture, cheer for him for the last time.
"I'll go." Promised Guess, "but I have something to tell you after the game."
In an instant, it was the day of the basketball game.
It is also the graduation season, and the atmosphere of the graduation season is very different from Huawu. The theme of Hua Wu is sad, parting, and the body is more like a giant carnival. Walking on campus, you can see funny slogans hanging out by graduates, what "Congratulations **** won the four-year single achievement", what " Run the wildest step and jump the hilarious high. "
Xiangchai went along the carnival to the gym. In fact, he was not short and was comparable to the women's basketball player next to him. He was like a school bag pendant.
Xiang Gui: "..." He was scared and slipped away from the tall girls.
The stadium was not yet open, and Xiang Gu was stopped at the door.
"Not started yet?" Xiang Guai looked at his watch. "But the friend who invited me said, it will start at two in the afternoon."
It's half past one, and it stands to reason that the audience should have started to enter.
The red armband responsible for checking tickets at the door asked: "Your friend invited you? Is he a member of the basketball team? What's his name?"
Xiang Gu answered, "Cen Manchuan."
"Oh ... it's Cen." The red armband exchanged a look with another classmate beside him, and opened the door. "If you are a friend of Cen, you can enter."
Xiang Gui thought their eyes were a little strange, but he didn't think much, and went in under the guidance of the red armband.
The gymnasium is extremely empty. Apart from the cleaning staff who are cleaning the floor, there are only two or three people sitting in the stands.
Standing on the edge of the basketball court, there were two rows of boys with long legs, and Xiang Gu recognized the team leader Cen Manchuan-he had a towel around his neck and looked down to listen to the coach's instructions.
The coach was full of energy: "This time, there are seniors from the provincial team to guide! You all cheer me up, don't lose our big faces! Now-start warming up!"
When the coach gave an order, Cen Manchuan shouted the horns, with the tails behind them running around the field.
As the boy ran, he looked around, as if looking for something.
When he looked up and noticed Xiang Guai standing in the auditorium, his eyes brightened.
Xiang Gui realized that he was looking for himself.
"Guess what you are doing so far away, come down!" Cen Manchuan dropped the team and went directly to the railing to call him.
When he stopped, the tall basketball players behind him also looked in the direction of guessing.
Somehow ... Xiang Gui thought that their eyes were quite meaningful, like curiosity, fun, like ... what Western scenery was being watched.
Xiang Gui suppressed the wrong point in his heart, and slowly walked down from the stand until he reached the first row of the stand.
He carried his shoulders on his back, and emptyly contained only two things. One was a breakup letter, and the other was a basketball uniform he was planning to return. The backpack is very light, but it is also heavy.
Xiang Guai stood in the first row of the stands and whispered, "I have dirty shoes, isn't it good to go to the sidelines?"
Playing indoor basketball is very particular about it. Even basketball shoes have to be dedicated. If you step on the outdoor ash, you will run and slip. Therefore, outsiders are not allowed to enter the court before regular indoor basketball games.
"It doesn't matter." Cen Manchuan laughed, his eyebrows and eyes were dancing, and he drew his hands on the railing, as if Romeo was looking at Juliet, "You see they're here too--"
Looking in the direction of Guess running his finger, I saw seven or eight girls standing in the rest area near the basketball court!
And the girls are by no means the women's basketball players he just met, but a group of petite and cute, sweet and attractive girls.
The most surprising thing for Xiang Gui was that the girls were wearing the same basketball uniforms as the players on the court, because the basketball uniforms were long and large, and they were set on them like a loose dress.
Xiang Guai: "..."
He understood that the girls must be the girlfriends of the men's basketball players on the court. They were invited by their sweethearts to come and watch their games here.
It is a matter of glory and happiness to be able to witness his boyfriend sweating on the field.
But Xiang Guai has an inexplicable embarrassment.
Xiang Gui knew that his identity was the same as these lovely girls.
He was invited by Cen Manchuan to stand on the side of the court, which was tantamount to using actions to come out to all the guests on the court.
By then, all parents, teachers, classmates, seniors of the provincial team ... will know their relationship.
Cen Manchuan planned this surprise. Xiang Gu was deceived without knowing anything. This should be a very romantic thing, but now he just feels weak.
He would like to ask Cen Manchuan-have you really considered it? Do you know what it means to come out? Can you withstand the dramatic changes in life that come out of the closet?
"Come down!" Cen Manchuan did not see the struggle in Xiang Gu's heart, still urging, "We will play a warm-up match later, you must speak louder when you cheer me!"
Slowly walked down the stairs to Guess, and stood on the sidelines.
He and the girls were separated by a meter, but they could not separate them from their fiery eyes.
They got together and talked wryly. Even though they tried hard not to look in the direction of guessing, Xiang guess knew that they must be discussing themselves.
Xiang Gui smiled at them kindly and turned back, standing upright.
...
After a warm-up period of 20 minutes, the basketball team automatically divided into two groups and started the warm-up match.
Cen Manchuan on the field is always the most dazzling one.
He was sharp, decisive, and seemed to have endless energy all over him. He can pass the ball and smash as fast as he can; he can also take off and intercept others' offenses; he can even make three-pointers ...
When Xiangchai first met him, he was by the basketball court. Under the sun, the boy's sweat wafted and reflected a beautiful light.
That is the light that Xiang Gu never encountered in his life.
Therefore, when the beam of light fell in front of Xiangchai, Xiangchai reached out and held the beam of light.
The light warmed him slightly and burned him.
... the memories came to an abrupt halt. On the field, the situation changed suddenly!
Cen Manchuan took a slam dunk. When he landed, he was squeezed by a classmate. He landed unstable, twisted his knee, and fell directly to the ground, making a loud noise! !!
"what--!!"
Cen Manchuan screamed, holding his ankle curled to the ground, his body bowed into an arc.
His teammates were also terrified, and did not expect a simple warm-up match, which would actually hurt the captain!
They hurried around and someone shouted, "Where is the team doctor? Go and call the team doctor !!!"
Through the gap of the crowd, Xiang Guai could see Cen Manchuan's painful appearance of rolling.
Xiang Gu suddenly lost his brain in a mess and couldn't help but rushed into the basketball court.
"Manchuan! Manchu, how are you ?!" squeezed to Guai, kneeling beside Cen Manchuan, holding his hand, and hurriedly asked, "Do you need to call an ambulance?"
Cen Manchuan hurt his ankle! It's the ankle! !!
How fragile and delicate the ankle is, it bears all the weight on the human body.
Xiang Guai just felt cold, especially his injured feet, and he lost his consciousness.
He seemed to be back many years ago ... On that dim night without a trace of light, his feet were exhausted, he leaned on his hands, dragged his heavy body, and climbed down to the side of the road. Long bloodstains spread from his feet, and he cried and wept, thinking that he could no longer stand up ...
Xiang Guai's tears burst out of his eyes, and he couldn't imagine, if Cen Manchuan really hurt his ankle, what should he do?
But at this moment-the basketball players who were originally surrounded by Xiang Gu suddenly dispersed.
The next second, Cen Manchuan, who was lying on the ground, turned over sharply, pulled the hand to Guai, and kneeled on the ground with one knee.
Xiang Guai: "..."
He looked up and saw those basketball players with a mixed smile of embarrassment and blessing on their faces, while their girlfriends on the sidelines pulled out their phones and screamed while recording.
Xiang Gu seems to have been hit by a sap.
He felt his brain buzzing, he felt blank, he felt thousands of words in his mouth, but he couldn't speak.
Cen Manchuan smiled shyly and happily, helping him wipe away the tears on his face.
Then-this sly and **** basketball boy didn't know where to turn into a red box.
Xiang Gu stared at the box, thinking, no, no.
Please do not.
… Fortunately, the box is not a ring.
But its meaning is more important than a ring.
Those are two keys.
Silver, leaning on each other in flannel boxes.
That was the house that Cen Manchuan rented after selling his beloved motorcycle.
"Guess," Cen Manchuan's eyes brightened, and he held a heart in front of Xiang Gu, "Would you accept this key?"
Looking into his eyes, he was speechless to Guess.
Because the answer ... is so cruel.
