【Zhou Xiang】Gravity

Chapter 39

1.

The call lasted 10 minutes.

After putting down the phone, Sun Xiang lay back on the bed on his back, staring at the ceiling and the decoration outside the ceiling, his eyes were empty, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

At about eight o'clock in the evening, the phone vibrated again.

Sun Xiang reluctantly turned over, reached for the phone, and found that it was a game invitation link from the Canyon of Kings.

"Screw the black, the black, the black!" Du Ming was as active as ever.

Thinking it was too troublesome to explain, Sun Xiang absent-mindedly ordered.The game starts and jumps to the team waiting interface... Zhou Zekai is also there.

"Damn!" With his finger ahead of his brain, Sun Xiang slammed the exit button and returned to the lobby interface.

"...Where's Sun Xiang?"

Through the screen, Du Ming saw Sun Xiang suddenly disappear from the team, quite surprised.

"Is your hand slipping?" someone said.

Du Ming also thought so: "I'll invite him again!"

A few seconds later, Sun Xiang returned to the queue.

"open?"

"open!"

Sun Xiang's answer didn't reveal any problem.Moreover, they won three rounds in a row. Sun Xiang, who was the main damage player, had been playing steadily, but he couldn't hide it from anyone, except Zhou Zekai's intuition.

Just at this time, Lu Boyuan said that he had something to do not call, and a QQ private chat reminder popped up on the top of Sun Xiang's phone.

There is a sentence behind the angelic Samoyed head.

Zhou Zekai: Something is wrong with you.What's wrong?

2.

Sun Xiang's head was a little swollen, he was hesitating.Do you want to go back?

Just a message.Scared of a fart!Sun Xiang encouraged himself.

"No, Fang Minghua just called me, it's a little annoying..."

Originally, he just wanted to mention one sentence, but by accident, he explained in detail about the training camp for the International Olympiad—not by accident. After typing out the long content, Sun Xiang finally realized how contradictory he was: To Zhou Zekai It's true to be disappointed, and it's true to hate the other party for being cowardly, but when it comes to testing Zhou Zekai, he still holds that sliver of hope.

"You haven't promised him yet?" Zhou Zekai asked.

"Nonsense. Otherwise, I don't have anything to worry about. It's a whole winter vacation!"

"You also went to the summer training camp." Zhou Zekai mercilessly broke his excuse.

"That's different..." Sun Xiang almost couldn't hold back, and replied directly, "I don't have the heart to engage in competitions before I get rid of your mess!"

If you really say that, how can you chat!If you lose your face, you might as well hit him to death!

His mind was spinning quickly, and he improvised a new excuse: "That's different! The training camp will take the whole winter vacation away from home. And there will be additional training at night, let alone the double row. Maybe later I will fall asleep in the dormitory. No time to chat with people."

"Games are less important than honor."

"..."

"Sun Xiang. You get the most points in the Olympiad." Zhou Zekai was so calm that people wanted to beat him, "With your strength, it is enough to win medals."

"..."

"Gold medals are not necessarily."

"Hehe." Sun Xiang replied blankly, "Zhou Zekai, you are so fucking good at talking."

Zhou Zekai's praise, in normal times, would have made Sun Xiang happy too late.But at this moment, he felt that every word Zhou Zekai said was dazzling, with a kind of sarcasm, with the sarcasm of "he doesn't care about you that much", through the screen, rushing toward his face.

Look, brother Xiang hinted so clearly, how did Zhou Zekai answer?

He doesn't care if he cuts off contact with you!

Passionate!Everything is your own passion!

Sun Xiang felt like a balloon that was constantly inflated. Every time Zhou Zekai analyzed a word for him, Sun Xiang was one step closer to the explosion.

The feeling that Zhou Zekai and himself are not thinking about the same thing is so annoying!Typing seemed to be killing what little patience he had, so Sun Xiang clicked on the voice call on impulse.

As soon as he connected, Sun Xiang couldn't help shouting: "Analyze! Don't fucking show off your analysis ability! I don't want to hear it! Zhou Zekai, I'll ask you, are you really stupid or fake?"

"Sun Xiang—"

"Let me finish first! I asked you to complain about the competition training to get you to talk about the truth? I am a fucking idiot! Pure! What shit! Shit best friend! What only you can understand me! In the end you How is it different from others? Your mother, you only care about your own thoughts in every word you say, and you think that I am in adolescence and have a bad temper. It's okay to get angry anyway, right..."

Having said that, he realized that he directed at Zhou Zekai, and casually put on his resentment towards his parents, but he couldn't stop the car, and if he didn't pour out the emotions that squeezed his chest, he would be crushed sooner or later—"You guys His mother is willing to play with me! Ah, you were the ones who pointed out the way, and you were the ones who encouraged me to think too much. When I was not willing to cooperate, you gave me a good word of advice. Zhou Zekai, ask yourself, do you really understand what I am thinking? ?”

After Sun Xiang yelled, he hung up the phone without giving Zhou Zekai a chance to explain.

3.

The moment I hung up the phone was so cool that I could laugh out loud.

Not a second after hanging up, Sun Xiang found that the corners of his mouth were hard, he couldn't laugh at all, he regretted it.

how so?When he was angry, he felt that the truth of the whole world was on his side. Now that he was gradually waking up, he realized that although Zhou Zekai was wrong, he would not be scolded like this by himself.

At one point he even picked up the phone, ready to call Zhou Zekai, but the next second he withdrew his hand—no, no, no, no!If you dial back, don't you slap yourself in the face?Brother Xiang, don't you want to lose face?

Sun Xiang put away this thought, and began to scratch his heart and wait for Zhou Zekai's response... According to past experience, Zhou Zekai will definitely call back, right?

5 minutes passed.The phone is silent.

Are you fighting?

Sun Xiang angrily threw the phone to the corner of the bed, got up and rubbed his face.The three emotions of bewilderment, nervousness, and anger intertwined and surged in his chest, squeezing his rationality to the corner.He took a few deep breaths, but still didn't hear the movement of the phone, so he simply jumped out of bed and turned on the computer to play online games.

Half an hour later, Sun Xiang stared at the phone whose screen went black at some point, and felt that he was a complete idiot—you didn't plug in the charging cable to the phone, it ran out of battery, why did Zhou Zekai call to apologize? !

4.

Phone charging is too slow!Slower than a turtle!

Sun Xiang was extremely anxious, and there was nothing he could do. During this period, he couldn't help pressing the power button several times, but the red battery icon seemed to be printed on the screen without any change. He told him coldly: Are you still You can't call Zhou Zekai.

Ten percent of the battery, as if it has been charged for a century, is finally enough to turn on the phone, Sun Xiang rushed to unlock it... Then he took a breath.

Can he slap himself again?

day.

Zhou Zekai didn't call at all!

It's him!

He didn't know which tendon was cramping, but he actually set the phone to silent!

5.

27 calls.

It was Zhou Zekai calling within 10 minutes after Sun Xiang hung up the phone.

There are two more messages.

Number one: I'm sorry.I don't mean that.

Rule [-]: Are you angry yet?I want to call you.

It's over, it's over, it's over!Call quickly... It doesn't matter if I call you!Hit now!

Sun Xiang was extremely annoyed, and hurriedly dialed back.

House seemingly endless rain.A few seconds later, a sweet but mechanical female voice sounded from the microphone:

"The number you dialed is temporarily unavailable, please try again later."

Sun Xiang grabbed the phone and froze there in an uncomfortable position, motionless, until he heard the "beep beep" beep and then slowly got up from the bed.

During this process, the phone accidentally dropped to the ground. Sun Xiang leaned over to pick it up. He picked it up twice, but failed to catch it, and only picked it up the third time.

... His hands were shaking.

He is afraid.

5.

In any previous relationship, he has never experienced such a moment - fear of losing someone, fear of the other person getting angry, holding grudges, misunderstanding, and cold war with himself, although he understands the truth and knows that it is impossible to be so exaggerated, But my mind seems to be controlled by others, and I can't stop thinking about extreme situations at all!

He panicked to death, not panicking at all like his usual self.Still wronged, want to yell, want to vent, want Zhou Zekai to hug him, or even if Zhou Zekai punches him, in short, he can't ignore him!

The two villains in Sun Xiang's mind quarreled again!The earth-shattering kind!

——Zhou Zekai, your uncle... Who the hell gave you the courage to not answer my phone?

--idiot!He is angry!Why do you want to pick it up?

——How is it possible for grass!

— Use your brains!Otherwise, why didn't he call when you turned on the phone?

——Get angry!Is he a man?Is it Alpha?Angry, dignified, calling and talking to me!

I just got angry and now I'm going to get angry again Zhou Zekai, you can figure it out!

——Why?ah?Why do people have to call you non-stop for half an hour?

……

These words are correct no matter from which point of view, so correct that a villain is silent.

And the other villain is still stubbornly insisting on stabbing Sun Xiang at the place where Sun Xiang's heart hurts the most:

"Understood? Sun Xiang, you are such an idiot."

"Grass." Sun Xiang fell back on the bed, covering his eyes with his arms, his whole body exuded a deep sense of exhaustion.

I am so tired.

Sun Xiang let out a breath slowly.

The villain who was so annoying to death was still chattering in his ear: Don't just lie down, send a text message to Zhou Zekai quickly, or you can keep calling!

But he doesn't, answer, me, call, call!

beat!Get through!

...I really got through, so what is the right thing to say?Say I just lost my mind, tell him not to mind?

It's funny, Zhou Zekai can believe it, if he doesn't mind, there will be a ghost!

So what is better?

He...he didn't know.

He doesn't know anything.

His mind was buzzing and chaotic, his train of thought was like a ball of yarn kicked by a cat all afternoon, all knotted!Just two words - bad!

How could it be... Obviously he was questioning Zhou Zekai at the beginning, and then when Zhou Zekai admitted his mistake, he took advantage of the situation to spread the matter out, asked how it was, and gave an accurate answer, wouldn't it be over?

He was angry, and his anger was also to force Zhou Zekai to jump to that step quickly.

Yup!

Isn't it just to get there quickly?

How did it become like this.

With such an accidental toss, it seemed... that he messed up the whole thing.

6.

After all, Sun Xiang is not the kind of character who would run away when encountering difficulties. He tossed and turned on the bed for 5 minutes, and finally wiped his face fiercely: "It doesn't matter, anyway, I have to call Zhou Zekai now!"

"The phone you're calling is off. Beep beep—"

In the next second, the sweet, mocking mechanical female voice sounded again.

"What?" Sun Xiang suspected that he had heard wrong.

"……The number you have dial can not be reached."

Sun Xiang frowned tightly.

He's not stupid, what does that mean?It means that Zhou Zekai took the initiative to turn off his mobile phone during the few minutes of self-reflection!

"Your uncle, Zhou Zekai...who is crazy!"

Sun Xiang's eyes darkened, he was so angry!Don't contact me anymore, do you want a cold war?sure!He wanted to pull out the SIM card, but he regretted it just after prying off the back cover, fearing that Zhou Zekai would turn it on suddenly and call back and he wouldn't notice.

"...I'll give you another chance!" In the end, Sun Xiang decided to put it on the bedside as a confession, waiting for a certain temper tantrum to call.

The result was that he didn't sleep all night, stared at the phone repeatedly, fell asleep and then woke up with a start, with huge dark circles under his eyes, and a certain hateful guy still refused to bow his head.

Looking at the morning sun, Sun Xiang didn't even have the strength to vomit blood.

7.

Sun Xiang, who was deprived of sleep, yawned and moved to the living room to drink water like a ghost.It happened that Father Sun was planning to go out to buy an Internet celebrity breakfast for his wife, so he bumped into him.

"Yo, the dark circles under your eyes, have you played games all night?"

"Who's playing games?" Sun Xiang didn't have the strength to talk to him, drank half a glass of water, and continued to sit on the sofa like a ghost, staring at the fruit plate on the coffee table in a daze.

"It doesn't look like a game." Father Sun looked him up and down, and found that this handsome boy not only got up very early today, but also wore a T-shirt for the first time, which was still wrinkled like pickles, and his face was not pressed out by a pillow. The crease, the gaze becomes thoughtful.

Sun Xiang drank another sip of water mechanically, and suddenly found that Father Sun was still there, snorted and turned his head aside: "Why do you care about me, don't you only love your wife? Hurry up and buy your love breakfast."

Father Sun almost didn't laugh out loud.

It's been a long time since I saw my son acting like a baby. Although the tone was still so awkward, it made him want to rub that head very much.

No, Father Sun laughed for a while, then suddenly frowned: "Son, are you jealous? Are you also in a relationship?"

Sun Xiang's eyes widened: "Puff—cough cough cough!"

8.

He was so frightened by his father that he almost choked out his lungs: "What are you doing!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, there is definitely a situation!" Father Sun said.

Having lived under the same roof for more than ten years, Sun Xiang knew how strong his father's ability to ask questions was. Seeing that it was impossible not to answer anything, he only blushed and explained: "It's not about dating. Just quarreling with friends!"

"Is it really a quarrel between friends?" Father Sun stared at him with great interest.

"...Will I make money by lying to you?!" Sun Xiang bit the bullet and lied.

"Let's just believe you." Father Sun clicked his tongue, "That's also new! Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, son, you also have times when you are troubled by friendship. You really have grown up."

Sun Xiang didn't want to talk to him.

Father Sun: "Seeing that you are so troubled, so it's your problem?"

"How is it possible!" Sun Xiang subconsciously defended, but he immediately felt guilty and lowered his voice, "...If you have to count, there must be something wrong with both of them!"

"How long have you been arguing?" Father Sun changed the topic.

"Uh," Sun Xiang pondered for a moment, "About eight o'clock last night?"

"Fuck, something is wrong!" Father Sun suddenly said excitedly, "Son, why are you dawdling! Communicate with people quickly! Otherwise, if you delay, you will pass the golden time for quarreling and reconciliation!"

It's good that Father Sun wasn't excited, but when he suddenly got excited, Sun Xiang became impatient too, so he didn't have the energy to tell if it was a trick: "I want to apologize, what if he doesn't answer the phone!"

"Look for someone at the door!" Father Sun looked at him with the expression of someone who came here, "When your mother got into trouble with me, it didn't matter if it was midnight or it was raining or snowing, as soon as your mother hung up the phone, I would immediately go find her! What are you afraid of on the phone, if you have any questions, explain clearly in person, everyone is here, how can I pretend to be dumb with you?"

"Damn, it makes sense!" Sun Xiang slapped his thigh, his eyes lit up, "That's right, I'm fucking stupid, I'm going to find him right now!"

The decadence was swept away, Sun Xiang stood up, rushed back to the room, grabbed his cell phone and picked up his backpack, after thinking about it, he took some snacks and fruits from his own table - apologies, you can't be empty-handed - and then nodded He rushed out of the house without looking back.

Father Sun shook his head and sighed: "Hey, my son's duplicity is cute, but falling in love is really bad."

He didn't believe that what kind of flimsy friendship problem could stump his kid!

9.

Father Sun dug up a piece of gossip and was happily sharing it with his wife.But Sun Xiang was not happy at all - he was dying of anxiety!

He wanted to teleport to Zhou Zekai's house, but God seemed to see through his mind and deliberately set up obstacles for him-the automatic sensor parking gate was buried at the exit of the neighborhood closest to his house, and it was directly blocked. It takes 10 minutes to go around the door.

Sun Xiang didn't want to delay for half a minute, and went straight to the wall next to the iron gate - he remembered that he had built an electric carport some time ago, and there were a few bricks left there that could be used as footsteps.

When we arrived, the bricks were still there.Sun Xiang spit on his hand twice, stepped on the brick at a faster speed, jumped up to reach the edge of the wall, grabbed it, and performed a perfect pull-up... It actually made him fall over.

Uncle Security was slow to notice, and chased after him in shock: "Stop—that boy from the Sun family—stop! Dangerous! Fuck! Fuck! Good guy... this is fine!"

On the main road outside, there were so many empty cars early in the morning, Sun Xiang casually reached out, stopped one, jumped on it and reported the address, and then said, "Quick, quick!"

Seat belt, the master shook the ashes and reminded.Sun Xiang was taken aback, and tied it up in a hurry: "Okay! Hurry up!"

The master sighed, kicked the accelerator and let it go.

The original half-hour drive was rushed to less than 10 minutes by Sun Xiang.As soon as the car stopped, Sun Xiang dropped a red note, swung his backpack and rushed down.

"Young man, get change!" The master rolled down the window.

Sun Xiang gritted his teeth, rushed back and grabbed the money impatiently.

Master: "You count—"

Sun Xiang had long since disappeared.

10.

Sun Xiang ran to Zhou Zekai's house in one breath, and rang the doorbell without hesitation.The doorbell was not broken, and it rang for almost 2 minutes, but there was no movement at the door.

Sun Xiang was in a hurry, he couldn't control that much, rolled up his sleeves and smashed the door directly, bang bang bang, the sound insulation in the old residential area was poor, when he hit it like this, half the building shook, and within half a minute, the insurance on the door next door shook. opened.

"Who are you looking for?"

Through the crack of the anti-theft door, the neighbor uncle watched him vigilantly, and he was likely to call the police immediately after Sun Xiang said something inappropriate.

Sun Xiang was full of anger and blood, and he laughed directly when he heard this: "Are you asking me? I'm looking for Zhou Zekai!"

The uncle did not relax his vigilance at all: "Are you his friend? If yes, call him. Otherwise..."

At this time, Sun Xiang's thoughts were unexpectedly clear: "Otherwise, you plan to call the police, right? Hurry up, just right! I can't wait! Just help me find him out. I'm fucking crazy looking for him. If he doesn't come out, I can Did you believe that you broke the door?"

The way he spoke was very sincere, as if he was ready to applaud fiercely after the uncle called the police, but the content sounded wrong.

The uncle felt the black line on the forehead come down: "..."

He was silent, and looked at Sun Xiang's face again, feeling that he really looked like someone his age. Most importantly, no matter how fierce Sun Xiang was, it still didn't affect his outstanding appearance. He can't be allowed to combine people with bums and punks.

Thinking about the conclusion, the uncle's first reaction was that the kid probably had a quarrel with Zhou Zekai, and then he got mad and came to the house to make trouble.

"Give way." The uncle shook his head, took the key and went out, walked straight to Zhou Zekai's door, and shouted at the top of his voice, "Xiao Zhou, Xiao Zhou! It's Uncle, are you at home? Should you be at home?"

"It's useless for me to smash the door, you can only react in such a gentle wind and drizzle—"

Sun Xiang's voice stopped abruptly, and his eyes suddenly widened.

Because the door opened without warning.

11.

"Okay, you know me? If you know me, tell me well, don't disturb the people early in the morning, let's go."

"Sorry to bother you." Zhou Zekai nodded.

"Bang." The door next door was locked again, and the corridor was quiet, only the two of them were left.

Sun Xiang opened his mouth, and the eyes of the two met for a moment, and then they moved away in different directions in a very tacit understanding.

Who gave you the guts not to answer my call!Just hang up on me if you don't answer?

——Sun Xiang originally wanted to use this as an opening remark.

But at this moment, the Lord who made his teeth itch with hatred could be seen and touched, but his mind was blank.

After more than ten seconds, Sun Xiang opened his mouth and said:

"Growing mushrooms early in the morning? You open the door so late, I, I will hurry..."

I'm going crazy!

Although he didn't want to admit it, at this moment, all he could think about was this sentence!

But at the same time, there was also that sense of awkwardness coming back to his chest. Sun Xiang didn't want to give in so early, at least not at the door, so he held back and didn't finish.To cover up his emotions, he took a deep breath and forcibly changed the subject: "I'm already here, and you won't let me in? Is this your way of hospitality?"

Zhou Zekai glanced at him, turned around, and got out of the way.

Sun Xiang followed him into the room and closed the door behind him.

Only then did he realize that the atmosphere was getting worse after the door was closed.

It was a little too quiet in the house.This silence not only refers to the ticking of the clock, but also includes Zhou Zekai himself.

Sun Xiang originally thought that there was a lot of quarrel and a cold war, and the paper on the windows had been pierced like this. He thought that any breeze would blow it apart. It is impossible for Zhou Zekai not to understand the purpose of his visit today. After all, there are two people. You can always choose the time to be alone, right?

But Zhou Zekai never said a word after that "sorry".

He lowered his head to fetch slippers for Sun Xiang, his movements were like sleepwalking, not only slow, but also bumped into obstacles several times.

Sun Xiang couldn't help it: "How long did you sleep last night?"

Zhou Zekai still didn't say anything, and handed him the shoes.

Sun Xiang was in a hurry, he didn't care about his shoes, and went directly to break his shoulder: "You fucking talk!"

Zhou Zekai couldn't stand still and took a step back.

"You..." Sun Xiang was stunned, this time he finally noticed Zhou Zekai's two dark circles that were very similar to his own, which he ignored just now because of the light, "...you haven't slept yet, have you?"

Zhou Zekai paused for a moment, shook his head, turned around to get a cup, and seemed to be planning to pour a glass of water for Sun Xiang, but accidentally knocked on the edge of the coffee table again.

"Zhou Zekai!" Sun Xiang's heart suddenly became a ball, and he lost the desire to show his cards immediately. He thought that he was here anyway, and he could ask all kinds of questions today. If you don't believe him, he can still evade the question, "Don't do such things. It's all over, now, immediately, go to bed for me!"

Zhou Zekai opened his mouth, his expression was a little dazed and bewildered.

Sun Xiang grabbed his shoulder impatiently and pushed him into the room: "I have something to do with you, but don't worry! We'll talk about it when you wake up!"

Zhou Zekai was pushed into the room by Sun Xiang as if he was sleepwalking, and was asked to kick off his shoes, take off his coat, and then cover him with a quilt.

After the person lay down obediently, Sun Xiang thought of joking a little. "You..." He sighed with a headache, imitating Zhou Zekai's previous actions, pulling off the quilt for him, his eyes full of threats: "You don't listen to Brother Xiang, do you? Close your eyes!"

The corners of Zhou Zekai's mouth twitched, his expression was indescribable, Sun Xiang faintly felt that he wanted to complain, but in the end this guy didn't say anything, and obediently closed his eyes.

Sun Xiang heaved a sigh of relief, and the guy suddenly opened his eyes again.His dark eyes stared at him for a moment.

"how?"

"Sun Xiang." Zhou Zekai suddenly spoke, calling his name.The voice was very low, a little hoarse, and much more confused than before.

These two words made Sun Xiang's heart suddenly soften.The depression and grievance receded like the tide, and he slapped Zhou Zekai's head angrily: "Yes. You sleep with you, and I won't run away."

Zhou Zekai stared at him for a while, and suddenly there was a sense of relaxation in his gaze.

"Zhou Zekai?" Sun Xiang urged, feeling a little uncomfortable being watched by him.

Zhou Zekai still didn't say anything, and closed his eyes again.

Sun Xiang heaved a sigh of relief, and was going to grab something to eat, but when he stood up, he noticed the corner of Zhou Zekai's mouth—there was a slight but not negligible curvature.

what does this mean?

Before Sun Xiang turned his head around, his heart jumped suddenly.

TBC
