1987 My Era

Chapter 74, Look, That’s Li Heng (Please subscribe!)
Li Heng was startled by this sudden situation. He squatted down hurriedly and asked:
"Lao Yong, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me. Are you feeling unwell?"

Zhang Zhiyong said in a half-dead voice: "I am dying, I am dying, I am in so much pain, I feel so bad."

Li Heng was stunned for a moment, then he breathed a sigh of relief and sat next to him.

Zhang Zhiyong complained to the sky in frustration: "Damn it! Damn it! This damn God is so unfair! Since you were a child, you have looked better than me, had better grades than me, and were popular with female classmates.

Although I am jealous of these, I accept them all. After all, we are brothers who grew up wearing open-crotch pants together! "

At this point, he paused and complained with a sad face: "But, but, we play together every day, and you become a writer while playing, what else can we do?
Even if I go home and steal all the money that damn old man earns from whoring, I still don’t have as much as you do, and we can’t play together!"

Li Heng blinked and asked, "Are you feeling disappointed?"

Zhang Zhiyong pointed to the sky with one hand and to the ground with the other. "What a huge gap! You are on Mount Everest, and I am in the Mariana Trench. You pee standing up, and I eat shit lying on my stomach. This is not a gap, it's a chasm!"

“Hahahaha…” Li Heng laughed out loud.

Zhang Zhiyong jumped up and grabbed his neck with both hands, complaining with spit flying: "Still laughing, what the hell are you laughing at! You have no sympathy at all."

Li Heng pointed to the restaurant across the river and said, "I'll treat you to a meal."

Zhang Zhiyong said: "I feel really bad, but I'm not hungry!"

Li Heng said: "We had braised pork, dry pot duck, and fish."

Zhang Zhiyong swallowed his saliva and said, "It's not like I haven't eaten it before, I won't go!"

Li Heng said: "I will pay for your living expenses this month."

Zhang Zhiyong twisted his fingers and counted: "Damn it! There's only one week left this month, and you're pretending to be generous when you're poor."

Hearing this, Li Heng stood up and kicked him over, "Forget it, don't eat this, don't eat that, eat it if you want, I have to go back and treat Xiao Han to dinner."

Zhang Zhiyong got up from the ground and asked, "Who? Who are you inviting?"

Li Heng replied: "Xiao Han."

Zhang Zhiyong opened his mouth wide in shock, a cow could fit in it: "Don't you like Song Yu? When did you hook up with Xiao Han again?"

Li Heng stretched lazily: "Have you ever heard the saying that it is better to resolve a feud than to create one? She and I have made a great reconciliation."

Zhang Zhiyong couldn't accept it, as if he had eaten shit. No! It was worse than eating shit:
"Bullshit! If you can catch up with Xiao Han, I will drink up all the water in the Zijiang River!"

An old man passing by said, "Young man, when I was young, I drank the water from the Zijiang River three times but still couldn't finish it. Don't try to show off."

Zhang Zhiyong shouted back: "Uncle, my brother is a great writer!"

What kind of answer is this? It's irrelevant. The old man grunted and walked away.

Li Heng went to a roadside grocery store to buy two bottles of soda and threw one to him: "Can't you keep it a secret for me?"

"Will keeping a secret make a girl like Xiao Han dump you?" Zhang Zhiyong stood on the river bank, put his hands to his mouth and shouted loudly:
“My brother is a great writer!”

After rushing back to school, Zhang Zhiyong asked, "Are you really not taking me with you to dinner?"

Li Heng asked back, "Xiao Han and I were eating and chatting, maybe even exchanging glances, are you just sitting there like a piece of wood?"

"grass!"

Zhang Zhiyong broke through the defense and returned to school cursing all the way. He wanted to find Liu Li to play basketball. He needed to vent!
Li Heng bought a bottle of soda and trotted to Class 206 in the next teaching building. He saw Xiao Han sitting there at a glance.

Yang Yingwen was also there with him.

At this time, there were only the two of them in the classroom, which seemed extremely empty. Hearing the movement at the door, Yang Yingwen turned around first.

Then she stood up, packed up her writing brush and ink, and taunted Li Heng, "It seems that my mission is accomplished. I have to leave and stop being an eyesore."

Li Heng pretended to invite him: "It's time for dinner now, how about we have dinner together?"

Unexpectedly, Yang Yingwen sat down again: "Okay, let's eat! I won't say anything later."

Hearing this, Li Heng looked constipated. Let you talk too much, let you talk too much. He wished he could slap himself to death.

Xiao Han looked back at him, then at her best friend, and smiled sweetly. After all, they were her best friend, so she was kind enough to be embarrassed.

Li Heng sat opposite Yang Yingwen and said with a smile, "Old rag, I'll treat you another day. I have something to do with Xiao Han today."

Yang Yingwen instinctively wanted to retort, "What can you do with Xiao Han? You're not going to take advantage of me, are you?" But when she saw her friend's willing look, she felt a little powerless. In the end, she just turned a blind eye and grabbed a book and left without even saying hello.

As soon as the eyesore left, there were only two people left in the classroom. They looked at each other inadvertently, and Xiao Han's face showed a hint of shyness, mixed with fear, and a little embarrassment.

She tried her best to be natural, trying to break the awkward situation. She smiled with her lips pursed, but couldn't laugh. She pursed her lips again and finally laughed:
"Oh, um, Mr. Li... I didn't expect you to come."

As soon as she finished speaking, she wanted to bite off her tongue: Nizi! How could you reveal your true feelings? Stay calm! Be reserved!
Li Heng smiled, showing his beautiful teeth: "So, you have been waiting for me? Then you probably haven't eaten yet, right?"

Xiao Han was a little panicked, regretting that he had not lived up to his expectations and that his misstep would lead to eternal regret.

She wanted to say with a smile, "I ate, I ate, you're welcome," but she was afraid that he would just leave after hearing that, so she could only pretend to be calm and nodded:
"I haven't eaten yet. I'm not too hungry yet."

Li Heng stood up and said, "But I'm a little hungry. How about we go to the restaurant and order some food first, and chat while we wait?" Xiao Han reminded herself again not to panic, and nodded and said, "I'm sorry to have to spend money on you."

The two left the classroom one after the other. When they reached the corner of the corridor, Li Heng suddenly found that his shoelaces were loose. He stopped to tie his shoelaces but was bumped by her on the back.

In an instant, he staggered left and right in the stairwell and almost sprained his ankle.

Seeing this, Xiao Han hurriedly followed him and held his arm, saying apologetically: "I'm sorry, I turned too quickly just now."

Their eyes met, Li Heng stared into her eyes intently, and after a while he asked quietly: "Am I a tiger? Why are you so nervous seeing me?"

"No way, I just..." Halfway through her words, Xiao Han couldn't stand his unscrupulous look any longer and looked away pitifully.

At this moment, she felt her face and ears hot, so hot that it was scary.

She didn't know how she left the school in the second half, and she followed him into Laoliu Restaurant numbly.

Xiao Han was still a little restrained when sitting in the private room near the vegetable garden in the backyard.

She first crossed her fingers and placed them on her knees like a lady, keeping her upper body straight. Then she felt a little awkward and moved her body slightly, finally finding a comfortable position in the solid wood chair.

After completing this set of actions, she hurriedly raised her head and smiled at him, but what she saw was Li Heng's meaningful expression.

Xiao Han's sweet smile gradually froze on her face. She felt a little miserable, like a peacock spreading its feathers to hide its desire for love, but she never imagined that the other person was a high-level player. She was like a transparent person, feeling very sad.

A beam of setting sun shone in from the window. She found it so dazzling that she quickly turned her head away.

She tried her best to keep herself calm and to find something to say. If she continued to be so quiet, she would almost suffocate.

But the person sitting opposite him is Li Heng!

It was the honey she had loved for a long time.

She racked her brains to break the silence, and she didn't know how to start. Should I say that I have had a crush on you since junior high school? Should I say that I hate you and Chen Zijin showing off your affection in front of me, and I get so angry every time?

Could it be that you were such a jerk in the first grade of junior high school that I was a little scared when I saw you, but I still snatched the stool from you.

Thinking of the time when she and her two little sisters scolded him harshly and made him dizzy and disoriented, Xiao Han suddenly smiled, and her body and mind completely relaxed in an instant.

So what if he's my honey? There's nothing to be afraid of. I've scolded him before.

Li Heng cleaned the cup, poured her a cup of tea, and asked, "What did you remember that made you laugh so happily?"

Xiao Han held the warm tea in his hands and said crisply, "I remembered some interesting past events."

Li Heng asked: "Does it have anything to do with me?"

Xiao Han hesitated and nodded politely: "Yes."

Li Heng became interested and leaned forward slightly: "What's the past? Can you tell me about it?"

After a few opening lines, Xiao Han got used to it a little bit, drank some tea, moistened his throat and said:
“In fact, when you were in the first grade, although your grades were average, you were very famous and many girls talked about you behind your back.

Sometimes you will see someone pointing at your back and saying: Look, that’s Li Heng.”

Li Heng asked: "Because I often lead people to fight with others?"

Xiao Han smiled and said, "It counts as one aspect."

Li Heng asked: "What else?"

Xiao Han showed two shallow dimples and said: "Some girls also said that you are quite good-looking. Uh~ha, I didn't say the word "quite good-looking", I just repeated it."

Li Heng asked: "What was the first impression I left on you?"

Xiao Han lowered his eyes and stared at his left arm for a long time. Finally, he sighed and said, "It should be marked with a "C".

That should indeed be it.

I watched you cut your skin with a pencil sharpener from across a large group, and the bloody scene still left a deep impression on me."

At this point, time seemed to stand still!
The two of them looked at each other, and no one spoke for a while, and the private room fell into silence.

What does C stand for?
Both of them knew it well.

Chen Zijin is Xiao Han's best friend, classmate, and love rival. Their relationship is very contradictory, but the boundaries are very clear.

Because she doesn't believe in fate.

Because she believes that everything depends on human efforts.

Because she knew what she wanted from the beginning to the end?
Because she is afraid of unrequited love, a love that is "I love you but it has nothing to do with you".

Therefore, Xiao Han would not be confused by Chen Zijin's multiple identities. Even if she was just a close friend, she would never give in to love.
