Secretly Liking Him - Chapter 26
Chapter 26
For lunch, the fish unexpectedly indeed was sour vegetable fish; Shen Lan directly made it fresh for them, the fish slices tender to an impossible extent, both fragrant and delicious.
Gu Xun ate with his cheeks puffing up blow by blow, his eyes satisfyingly squinting into lines; just watching him eat made people feel their appetite opening greatly.
Shen Yanzhi just watched him eat this way, without knowing or awareness also following to add more rice.
Shen Lan, watching the two of them sweep the dining table clean, was happy to the point of her eyebrows and eyes breaking into smiles: “Eating food exactly must be like this! Not eating a bit more, how to grow body!”
Gu Xun paralyzed inside the sofa, expressed: “If every day eating like that, I feel I am not far from a body weight of one hundred and eighty, still with kilograms as the unit.”
Shen Yanzhi himself also ate too much, only being much better than Gu Xun, at least not stuffed to the point of needing to paralyze inside the sofa.
After hearing Gu Xun speak that way, Shen Yanzhi then turned his head to look at him.
Gu Xun exactly was stuffed to the point of using his hand to rub-rub his belly, a face of lazy-and-casual appearance.
Shen Yanzhi for a split second brain-supplemented a bit what a round-and-rolling Gu Xun would be like, and then didn’t resist laughing out a sound.
Gu Xun didn’t know what he was laughing about, so asked: “A-Yan, what are you laughing at?”
Shen Yanzhi shook his head: “Nothing.”
Gu Xun also didn’t chase after to ask; in his view, as long as knowing A-Yan’s mood right now had gotten better again just was fine, not necessarily needing to know the reason.
Having eaten full and drank enough, Gu Xun then was a bit sleepy, visibly about to fall asleep as one watched.
Shen Yanzhi pushed-pushed him: “Return to the room to sleep.”
Gu Xun then obediently returned to the room, target clear-and-definite just preparing to rush toward the bed, but before climbing upward, remembered himself today had sweated quite a lot, so again turned the head wanting to go rinse a shower first.
Shen Yanzhi watching him rubbing his eyes yet wanting to walk outward, then asked: “What’s wrong?”
Gu Xun said: “Going to rinse a bit…”
Shen Yanzhi let out a sigh, saying: “Sleep ba.”
Gu Xun felt his own sleep bugs all had run away not a few, with confusion cast a glance at Shen Yanzhi, feeling these words speaking out from his mouth truly was strange-strange.
Just this all had formed a habit; not rinsing a bit, wanting to sleep on the bed still was a bit not quite comfortable, therefore Gu Xun still went to wash.
Gu Xun’s actions were very fast, not long after then came out from the bathroom; Shen Yanzhi exactly was sitting before the desk organizing the exercise book Gu Xun before hadn’t managed well.
Inside Gu Xun’s brain, the alarm bell instantly then struck loud; on the spot then said: “Uh, I discover I am not sleepy! Better continue to do questions ba!”
The result who would have known just after finishing speaking, then didn’t suppress and let out a yawn.
Gu Xun: “…”
How could he just be so not living up to expectations ah! A single yawn all couldn’t be suppressed! This way how could it do!
The result Shen Yanzhi conversely was with a smile looking at him: “Sleep a while, wait until the brain is clear-headed and then start, the efficiency will be high by a lot.”
Not knowing why, Gu Xun just felt Shen Yanzhi’s smile, compared to before was a bit not quite the same.
Just concretely where was not the same ba, again couldn’t speak very clearly.
Finally Gu Xun thought, probably it was because of his previous moment saying not sleepy, and immediately following letting out a yawn matter ba…
Gu Xun wiped a handful of his face, feeling himself before A-Yan losing face all was about to get used to it, this how can be good.
He exactly was wildly-and-confusedly thinking, the result Shen Yanzhi already had arisen body to go to the bathroom, taken the hair dryer out.
Gu Xun touched his own hair: “I blew it well ah.”
Shen Yanzhi said: “Not dry.”
Gu Xun then again the entire head touched a circle, discovering it was not dry, hence then obediently sat well waiting for Shen Yanzhi to blow it for him.
The wind of the hair dryer was hot, but the fingertips shuttling between the hair strands conversely were slightly cool.
To say this also was not the first turn, yet Gu Xun just felt on his face hot-hot, feeling himself truly was too not living up to expectations.
Was it not just blowing a head! A-Yan even had washed a bath for him ne!
Gu Xun: “…”
Wanting to die, thinking this way, on the face then was not only just hot-hot, becoming so burning.
Shen Yanzhi over there after stopping the hair dryer, then saw Gu Xun’s face red-red, expression a bit strange.
Shen Yanzhi just prepared to ask what’s wrong, then realized himself perhaps should need to reduce some of such interactions.
A-Xun, was liking him.
This cognition flashed and moved inside Shen Yanzhi’s brain sea; Gu Xun’s at this moment red-red cheeks then also didn’t use further asking for the reason.
Shen Yanzhi silently put away the hair dryer, inside his heart telling himself afterwards to pay more attention, but waiting until seeing the foolishly-smiling Gu Xun, again suddenly felt, if just such a very small action could make him that happy, it seemed like also was nothing.
Shen Yanzhi’s brow, uncontrollably again wanted to wrinkle up.
Over there Gu Xun exactly was foolishly-smiling falling toward the bed; after lying well, still pretending quite calmly asked: “A-Yan, do you sleep or not sleep?”
Shen Yanzhi in a soft voice said: “No, I’ll read a while of books, when the time arrives I’ll call you up.”
Gu Xun uncontrollably had a tiny bit of small disappointment, but again by Shen Yanzhi’s way of speaking was cured; A-Yan wait a bit will call him up ah!
Gu Xun thinking this way, when falling asleep, on his face the smile still was hanging.
Shen Yanzhi watching him sleep maturely, only then again started to ponder the previous question; in the end how to get along just would be good?
Time all at once just slipped away particularly fast; waiting until Gu Xun had slept for fast two hours, Shen Yanzhi only then discovered he with one thought had thought for this long.
The key point was, having thought for this long, unexpectedly a single clue of train of thought all didn’t have.
Just if Gu Xun again didn’t get up, at night estimation then would be unable to sleep, therefore Shen Yanzhi still first put the question to one side, first calling the person up.
Gu Xun slept dazed-and-muddled; being called up also still wanted to sleep, exactly hesitating whether he should play a rascal and sleep a while more, after all it was a holiday ma!
And then his eye’s remaining light just glimpsed the desk which was organized tidily, instantly then was clear-headed.
Gu Xun in a split second braced up his spirit: “Come come come! Study! Study! Study!”
Truly vividly interpreted what was called the previous second being a worm, the next second being a dragon.
The alive-dragon-and-living-tiger Classmate Gu expressed, exercise books or whatever, those entirely were paper tigers! He one time could fight several!
Shen Yanzhi just watched him alive-dragon-and-living-tiger go to battle with the paper tigers, half an hour later being gnawed by the paper tigers until dregs-dregs all were not remaining.
Gu Xun inside flowing tears full face: “…It was not our side not working hard, only blame the enemy being too powerful!”
Shen Yanzhi looking at his wrinkled-up face, his mouth pressed-pressed, finally ultimately couldn’t resist, lowering his head and laughing up.
Gu Xun originally exactly was bitter-and-miserable waiting for the Learning God to explain questions to him, the result just heard the Learning God laughing.
He with one look cast over, just saw Shen Yanzhi laughing with eyebrows and eyes curving-curving, good-looking to wanting a person’s old life.
Gu Xun heard his own heart inside peng-peng leaping, simply like plugging in an external broadcast audio speaker, he all suspected whether Shen Yanzhi could hear.
Shen Yanzhi himself laughing also had a bit of embarrassment, but seeing Gu Xun that appearance, he truly was not resisting.
Shen Yanzhi gave him an apology: “Sorry, didn’t resist.”
Gu Xun with great difficulty only then shifted away his line of sight from his face, and then forcefully pretending zero matter said: “No matter… you just don’t go to the outside to ridicule me is fine…”
Shen Yanzhi hearing Gu Xun thought himself was ridiculing him, immediately then said: “No, I am not ridiculing you.”
Gu Xun hadn’t expected such a small question Shen Yanzhi all was quite serious; for a time conversely didn’t know how he should return, only able to foolishly give an “oh” sound.
Shen Yanzhi thought a thought, still explained: “Just only felt you speaking that sentence was very fun.”
Or to say, very… cute?
Just boys using cute to describe, seems like is not quite right.
Gu Xun toward Shen Yanzhi waved his hand: “Next turn opening a cross-talk special field for you, letting you experience what is called truly fun.”
Gu Xun said in his heart just with his own this eloquence, with Shen Yanzhi’s laugh point, estimation could laugh until back-turning-breath goes.
Shen Yanzhi hearing him speak this way, then also knew he truly didn’t mind, so took his exercise book over, starting to explain to him.
Gu Xun when starting, still would uncontrollably secretly look at Shen Yanzhi’s profile face seriously explaining questions to him.
But later thinking A-Yan all was that serious, himself if not keeping up, wouldn’t it be wasting his a piece of painstaking heart?
Hence Gu Xun also took out twelve ten-thousand fractions of seriousness; he truly was very much wanting to work hard to keep up with Shen Yanzhi.
Even if unable to keep up, that also couldn’t be flung away too far ma!
Probably it was entire body and soul invested, time all at once just passed very fast.
Gu Xun felt having not explained several questions yet, his mom just came to call to eat evening food; Gu Xun touched-touched his belly, seeming not quite hungry.
Shen Yanzhi watching his action, then said: “First eat a bit, saving at night being hungry, also smoothly resting a bit.”
Gu Xun only then put the exercise book little goblin to one side.
However when eating food, because of the relationship of not quite hungry, Gu Xun’s attitude then had a bit of perfunctoriness.
Shen Lan watching him eating-eating always wandering spirit, then used her hand to knock the desktop: “Thinking what ne, food all don’t know to well eat.”
Gu Xun smoothly along the mouth then said: “Thinking functions ne…”
Shen Lan: “…”
Did she hear wrongly?
Gu Guanyuan all cast a glance at Gu Xun, thinking he this was before his mom’s face shaking cleverness ne.
Shen Yanzhi supplemented the explanation: “Just now was doing questions.”
Shen Lan’s eyes instantly then brightened-brightened, putting the words originally wanting to speak about Gu Xun all back down the throat; after exchanging a gaze with Gu Guanyuan, only then said: “First seriously eat food, finish eating and then think, doing questions also needs to have strength is it not.”
The tone could be said to be on the level of resembling water tender.
Gu Xun originally exactly was a bit wandering spirit, the result hearing his mom this tone after, in a split second then returned soul.
Gu Xun cast a glance at the obviously very happy Shen Lan, having a bit of suspicion his mom possibly was by crossing-over traversed, or otherwise just was the tenderness before a rainstorm!
Thinking this way, he then used an inquiring gaze to cast a glance at Shen Yanzhi; the result Shen Yanzhi in a small voice said to him: “Well eat food.”
Gu Xun immediately tightened his skin, working hard to seriously eat food up.
After finishing eating and returning to the room, Gu Xun’s heart still was hairy-furred: “Is my mom’s state not quite right ah?”
In the past he eating food, wandering spirit or whatever, his mom wished she could break open his mouth to pour it inside for him; today unexpectedly, particularly tenderly for him picked up dishes, this absolutely has a problem!
Shen Yanzhi smiled: “That is knowing you right now seriously studied, happy.”
Although this reason still quite was able to explain through, but Gu Xun just was not used to it.
Gu Xun again recalled his mom’s appearance just now, instantly shook-shook: “Too not used to it!”
But these small interludes, very quickly after continuing to invest into exercise books, were by Gu Xun forgotten to the back of the brain.
Also didn’t know whether it was just now when eating food relaxed the brain, or suddenly just opened enlightenment; the following questions, Gu Xun seemed all could quite easily then solve open.
Waiting until finishing, Gu Xun’s eyes bright-crystal-like looked at Shen Yanzhi: “The behind seems relatively simple!”
Shen Yanzhi looking at his expression, just felt inside his heart warm-warm, like being in basking sun.
Gu Xun seeing him not speaking, hurriedly then urged: “A-Yan, A-Yan, quick for me look look!”
Shen Yanzhi then drew back his gaze, flipping and looking through the exercise he just finished doing; the correctness rate was extremely high.
Gu Xun after knowing, instantly cheered a sound, taking over the exercise book ba-ji then kissed a mouthful: “Ai-yo! Finally right!”
Gu Xun with this book died-stubborned for a whole afternoon, this moment truly was hating he couldn’t set off a firecracker to celebrate.
Himself hand-dancing-and-foot-tripping for a good while after, only then discovered Shen Yanzhi all along was looking at him, instantly then stiffened on the original spot.
Gu Xun embarrassedly sat back: “That what… I just casually happy…”
Shen Yanzhi looking at him smiled: “Should be.”
Gu Xun blinked-blinked his eyes, feeling himself just now happy into that appearance, seems like also was not some unable-to-be-forgiven matter.
After all A-Yan all said it was should be.
Gu Xun toward the chair back leaned, again laughed up, saying: “Even happier than game clearing-pass.”
Game clearing-pass although also was happy, but compared with this moment, truly differed by a big lot ah.
He turned his head to look at Shen Yanzhi, saying in his heart, this probably was because of invisibly, leaving him again closer by a bit of relationship bad.
Gu Xun thinking this way, then again secretly laughed up.
Shen Yanzhi just waited until he finished being happy, only then said: “Today just arrives here, tomorrow continue.”
Gu Xun nodded his head, contentedly starting to pack up stationery.
Shen Yanzhi stood up, saying: “I go wash a bath.”
Gu Xun gave an “oh” sound, the action on his hand conversely was pausing-pausing; when moving up again, the packing up action visibly was to be slower by not a little.
Waiting until hearing inside the bathroom water sound ringing up, Gu Xun then immediately took his thick book to the dying diary book and moved onto the desk.
Losing the password to open it after, Gu Xun looking at the above already written-up several sentences, inside his heart waves-waves of feeling had some sweetness.
He thought a thought, took a pen inside the above wrote this way: 【This road is not smooth, still a bit crooked (crooked/gay), but I will very much work hard.】
Gu Xun carefully looked at that sentence, and then wrinkled-wrinkled his face; seems like should be first practicing characters ah…
The notebook was quite good-looking, just the characters were a bit ugly…
Gu Xun made a ghost face, and then carefully locked the diary book up again; checking one turn determining it was locked well after, only then again put it back to the original position.
But his gaze still conversely was for a long time remaining on that diary, feeling inside hid treasures the same.
Just looking at a single glance, all felt inside the heart full-full.
Also didn’t know just foolishly looking for how long, Gu Xun then suddenly heard inside the bathroom transmitting out the sound of a hair dryer.
Gu Xun immediately then leaped up, along the mouth shouting: “A-Yan! I come to help you blow ah!”
He three-two steps just leaped inside the bathroom; Shen Yanzhi exactly was holding the hair dryer, after seeing him enter, only then turned the hair dryer off, asking: “What’s wrong?”
Obviously it was just now the hair dryer sound was too big, not hearing what Gu Xun spoke.
Gu Xun then attentively grabbed the hair dryer into his hand, mouth saying: “I come to help you!”
Shen Yanzhi originally wanted to say no need, but after seeing Gu Xun’s leaping-and-bounding-to-try expression, then lightly inside his heart let out a sigh, saying: “Good.”
Just helping to blow a head of hair, should be nothing ba?
A very small matter, Gu Xun conversely did it very seriously, a bit matching the hair stylist inside a barber shop urging people to handle a card, a while just needing to ask a sentence: “How about it? Scalding or not scalding? This wind can it do? Do you want to change to a small gear?”
Shen Yanzhi then with good temper one by one answered him; waiting until obtaining a definite reply after, Gu Xun would inside the noise of the hair dryer, happily while humming a song while continuing.
Waiting until Shen Yanzhi’s hair was blown dry after, Gu Xun then had a bit of regret.
Boys’ hair even if more, that blowing up also just was a few minutes’ matter ah!
If Shen Yanzhi’s hair were the same as Xu Meng’s, that handful of big braids, estimation would need to blow for half an hour ba!
And furthermore A-Yan long hair definitely also is good-looking ah!
Gu Xun for a split second particularly yearned for it; truly luckily Shen Yanzhi didn’t know what he was thinking.
Seriously studying on the second day, Gu Xun felt good, when going to bed still hummed a small tune.
Shen Yanzhi, being infected by him, also felt happy up, so asked him: “What are you humming?”
Gu Xun: “Uh… just casually humming… I also don’t know what it is.”
Gu Xun actually hummed that Spanish song that day, just ba… he obviously hummed a bit not on the tune…
This not, Shen Yanzhi a single bit didn’t hear it out.
Gu Xun let out a cough, deciding himself to turn this page over; he asked Shen Yanzhi: “A-Yan, do you have any liked songs or not?”
Shen Yanzhi thought a thought, saying: “Seems like having no particularly liked ones, I have no music cells.”
Gu Xun originally hearing him say having no liked ones, still had a bit of faint loss; waiting until hearing him say having no music cells, then had a bit of excitement!
Gu Xun had a kind of riddle-like happiness: “Ai! I also have no music cells! Kindergarten chorus teacher all let me not be that loud!”
Shen Yanzhi after hearing conversely didn’t laugh, only asked Gu Xun: “Truly spoke this way with you?”
Gu Xun didn’t know he asking these words was what meaning, thought a bit said: “Seems like it is ba, saying letting me be a bit quieter, don’t affect other small children.”
He ran off tune ran until bringing the entire class all off tune, estimation the teacher also was quite helpless.
And then he heard Shen Yanzhi ask: “At that time inside the heart not sad?”
Gu Xun strangely turned his head to look at Shen Yanzhi: “Ah? Sad?”
Gu Xun couldn’t think through this matter how still could pull a relationship with sadness; he carefully thought a thought only then suddenly realized something, and then smiled.
He said: “How can it be ah! Just this bit of matter!”
Shen Yanzhi opened-opened his mouth, somewhat wanting to ask Gu Xun, then what matter would make you sad?
He again thought of that day Gu Xun before him crying out appearance, compared with right now the person by his side, simply didn’t resemble the same one.
Shen Yanzhi pressed-pressed his mouth, compressing that tiny bit of discomfort inside his heart down.
Gu Xun didn’t know what he was thinking, only saying: “At that time actually quite fun, the entire class’s tune all followed me to run, all teachers were laughing, still quite fun, truly nothing sad.”
Possibly this matter placed on other people’s bodies, still would have a bit of confidence receiving hit or whatever, but Gu Xun was not ah, he simply was world number one confidence, teachers generally couldn’t hit him.
Gu Xun again said: “Speaking of it, I when small still was quite pleasing to people.”
Gu Xun probably felt himself only speaking this way, persuasiveness was a bit not quite enough, and then himself just climbed up from the bed, turned on the light and flipped drawers.
Shen Yanzhi just watched Gu Xun from the drawer flip out a thing, turn body again climbed up the bed.
Gu Xun inside his hand held a photo album, toward Shen Yanzhi shook-shook: “Come! Let you meet-experience what is called a cute small child!”
Gu Xun right now grew up just quite good, when small that furthermore was cute; his mom at that time hated she couldn’t the whole day bring him out to stroll, just for hearing people praise a sentence “your home’s child truly cute.”
So Gu Xun when small photos particularly many, he this drawer inside just had one book photo album, his mom over there had an entire cabinet all being his childhood photos, can be said to be quantity frightening.
Shen Yanzhi took over the photo album, taking it into his hand, just saw on the cover was a round-faced small child laughing, eyes very bright.
Without Gu Xun speaking, Shen Yanzhi with one look just read out, the child on the cover was Gu Xun.
Gu Xun quite proud, leaned over saying: “The cover exactly is me! Cute ba!”
Shen Yanzhi glanced at him gave an “um” sound, and then flipped open the photo album.
That time photo-taking technique entirely was not very good, photo studio style with one look just had a sense of age, still having wiped big red face cheeks, middle of forehead dotting rouge.
Gu Xun conversely didn’t blush-shy, himself looked and then smiled, still spoke with Shen Yanzhi ne: “My mom said I after finishing taking this photo just held other people’s photo studio’s doll refusing to loosen hand, who coming to coax all wouldn’t do, finally the boss saw me cute, saying wanting to give the doll to me coming.”
Shen Yanzhi asked: “Gave?”
Gu Xun curled mouth: “How can it be ah! My mom said couldn’t pamper me, saying I still was small, if knowing crying and rioting, just had things to take, this afterwards definitely must go wrong…”
So the young child Classmate Gu, after being by his dear mom beaten a turn of buttocks, was separated from his beloved doll.
Mother Gu’s education was very successful, Gu Xun from small to big all hadn’t for what thing cried or rioted.
Gu Xun said: “Speaking truthfully, I right now looking at this doll, I still quite like it ne!”
Shen Yanzhi hearing him speak this way, then paid attention with a few glances at that doll.
Was a bearing-uniform-wearing bear doll, workmanship very good, in those years should be quite rarely seen, also no wonder Gu Xun would like it.
Gu Xun after finishing speaking then felt himself this big, still liking bears or something, seemed a bit naive, so supplemented: “Uh, but already not that much wanting it.”
If it were not for today seeing it, Gu Xun truly couldn’t think up himself at that time particularly wanted this.
Shen Yanzhi staring at that photo looking for a while after, only then flipped a page; Gu Xun then again leaned over to follow him to speak that photo had what story.
These actually Gu Xun himself all had no impression, but couldn’t withstand past Shen Lan always speaking, he then also remembered down, this moment exactly all spoke to Shen Yanzhi to listen.
