28, secretly(1/3)
The graduation ceremony was held in the gymnasium.
But the time hadn't come yet, and most people stayed outside to take pictures. Duan Jiaxu was extremely popular and had a good temper. He was dragged to take pictures by many people, and he didn't have much time to take care of Sang Zhi.
Sang Zhi had no intention of influencing him. She wanted to go back to find her parents, but because there were so many people, she didn't know where they had gone.
Duan Jiaxu was afraid that she would get lost and that she would be squeezed by the crowd. In the end, he simply pulled her next to him and told her to follow him and not run around.
He didn't care that she was also in the camera.
Sang Zhi felt like she had become his little tail. A little tail with eyes that couldn't help but look at him secretly.
Duan Jiaxu is wearing a uniform black bachelor's uniform and a big robe today, which makes him look thin and tall, with a dignified and indifferent temperament. His complexion is cold and white, his facial features are sharp and clear, and his smile is inexplicably a bit provocative, which is nice to see.
It makes people unable to take their eyes away.
Sang Zhi could feel that many girls were looking at him.
Perhaps because he felt uncomfortable, Duan Jiaxu didn't wear his bachelor's hat, but just held it in his hand casually. Later, he noticed that the sun was too strong, so he put the hat on Sang Zhi's head.
The bachelor's hat was a bit too big and kept falling down, falling in front of Sang Zhi's eyes, blocking her sight.
Seeing it from the corner of his eye, Duan Jiaxu immediately helped her straighten up, and said funnyly: "What are you thinking about? Help her up by yourself. Otherwise, why don't you want your brother to help you?"
Sang Zhi made a sound and adjusted the position of his hat.
But it still kept falling down, so she simply took off the hat and handed it back to Duan Jiaxu: "Brother, I won't wear it anymore."
"Huh?" Duan Jiaxu looked down at her, "Don't you want to sunbathe?"
"Hai." Sang Zhi pointed to his head and said in a depressed tone, "But it keeps falling off."
"Stand in front of brother."
Sang Zhi obediently followed the instructions and said hesitantly, "What are you doing?"
Duan Jiaxu raised his hand to fix the hat and chuckled: "Brother, help you."
"..."
"You can't expose our little Sangzhi."
People, one big and one small, stood one behind the other, surrounded by various people wearing academic uniforms.
Duan Jiaxu held the bouquet of flowers brought by Sang Zhi in his hand, and the bachelor's hat that was supposed to be put on his head was put on her head.
When someone asked, Duan Jiaxu smiled and replied: "This is my sister."
In this way, Sang Zhi, as a "sister", appeared in most of Duan Jiaxu's graduation photos. She had never seen any trace of those photos and was too embarrassed to ask him for them.
Sang Zhi suddenly felt happy.
Fortunately, I wore a nice skirt today.
After the graduation ceremony, Sang Zhi followed her parents home.
Sang Yan and Duan Jiaxu went out to eat with their friends. That night, Sang Yan came home at nearly twelve o'clock and brought Duan Jiaxu back.
Strictly speaking, it should be said that Duan Jiaxu sent Sang Yan back.
Sang Zhi was already asleep at the time, and when she was woken up by the sound of silence, she got up to take a look in confusion.
As soon as he left the living room, he saw Sang Yan sitting on the sofa, obviously drunk. Sang Rong was cursing Sang Yan and talking to Duan Jiaxu beside him.
Liping was cooking hangover soup in the kitchen.
Noticing Sang Zhi, Sang Rong looked over and said, "Did I wake you up?"
Sang Zhi rubbed his eyes and shook his head silently.
"Look at your brother, how much did you drink to get like this!" Sang Rong frowned, "By the way, this brother is sleeping at our house today. You go find him a new towel and toothbrush."
Duan Jiaxu immediately declined: "I won't disturb you anymore."
"What are you interrupting?" Sang Rong patted his arm, "Go and wash up quickly. You are tired from all the hard work today, so don't go out and live outside."
The next moment, Sang Zhi walked up to him and said, "Brother, come with me and I'll get it for you."
Duan Jiaxu did not refuse anymore, nodded and said: "Then I'm sorry."
Sang Zhi took Duan Jiaxu to Sang Yan's room, dug out a set of pajamas for him, and then suddenly stopped: "Brother, I don't know where to put my underwear. Let me ask my mother?"
"..." Duan Jiaxu said, "Just get a towel and a toothbrush for my brother."
"Oh." Sang Zhi took him to the toilet again and pointed to the cabinet above, "There are new ones in that cabinet, you can just get them yourself."
"Um."
"Brother," Sang Zhi walked out of the toilet and suddenly turned around and asked, "Have you been drinking?"
Duan Jiaxu: "I didn't drink."
"Did you really not drink it?" Sang Zhi stared at his face and said hesitantly, "If you did, I will ask my mother to make you a hangover soup."
"I really didn't drink." Duan Jiaxu smiled, "Brother doesn't drink."
After thinking about it, Sang Zhi walked back to the toilet and pointed to the things on the table: "Brother, this is shampoo and conditioner, this is shower gel, and this is facial cleanser, and there is a razor here -
—You can use it."
Duan Jiaxu rubbed Sang Zhi's head, his eyebrows narrowed slightly and the corners of his lips curled up.
"Okay, brother understands. Thank you, little Sangzhi."
Sang Zhi nodded and left the toilet.
Seeing that Sang Yan was alone in the living room, Sang Rong went into the kitchen to help Liping.
Thinking of what just happened, Sang Zhi trotted up to Sang Yan and pushed his arm: "Brother."
Sang Yan struggled to open his eyes: "What are you doing?"
"Go to your room to find a new pair of underwear." Sang Zhi whispered, "Brother Jiaxu is taking a shower, go and get him a pair."
"..."
"hurry up!"
Sang Yan said perfunctorily: "It's in the small cabinet in the closet. Go get it to him."
Sang Zhi looked uncomfortable: "...How can I take this?"
Sang Yan closed her eyes again and ignored her.
Seeing Sang Yan's uncomfortable look, Sang Zhi said nothing. She looked at the empty water glass on the table and poured him another glass of warm water: "Brother, drink water."
Sang Yan said nothing.
"Remember to drink." She stood up and muttered, "Why do you drink so much when you have nothing to do..."
Sang Zhi ran back to Sang Yan's room, opened the small cabinet he mentioned, and took out a new pair of underwear. She scratched her head, walked to the bathroom door, and knocked on the door.
The sound of water inside stopped immediately: "Did someone knock on the door?"
"Brother, I...I hung the door for you. You can take it yourself."
After saying that, Sang Zhi immediately returned to his room.
After that, she didn't go out again. She could hear movement outside in the room. It lasted for about an hour, and Sang Zhi gradually fell asleep again amidst the rustling sounds.
When she woke up again, she was woken up by thirst.
It was still dark, the vision was dark, and the world was quiet. Sang Zhi got up and planned to go to the living room to get a glass of water.
Afraid of disturbing her parents, she made little movement, filled the water and planned to go back to the room. When passing by the living room, she suddenly noticed that there seemed to be someone on the balcony.
Sang Zhi's steps stopped.
He instantly discovered that the person was Duan Jiaxu.
He sat on a chair on the balcony, closed the floor-to-ceiling windows, and smoked. He didn't notice Sang Zhi's presence. He raised his head, his Adam's apple slowly slid, and the smoke lingered in the moonlight.
Sang Zhi couldn't see his expression clearly.
But I felt that he was in a bad mood for no reason.
Sang Zhi hesitated for a moment, then walked over.
Soon, Duan Jiaxu noticed with his peripheral vision, turned his head and looked over, raised his eyebrows, and immediately smiled: "Why aren't you still asleep?"
Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, his voice was very low.
Sang Zhi carefully pushed open the floor-to-ceiling window and asked in a breathy voice: "Brother, can't you sleep?"
Duan Jiaxu put out the cigarette butt and said lazily: "Well, brother is a little bit in love with his bed."
"You can fall asleep just by lying down." Sang Zhi said, "Otherwise, you can sleep on the sofa in my brother's room. I remember you used to sleep on it."
"Okay." Duan Jiaxu looked gentle, "It's very late, go to bed."
Sang Zhi didn't move and asked in a low voice: "Brother, are you in a bad mood?"
Duan Jiaxu hummed: "A little bit."
Sang Zhi was silent for a few seconds without asking why: "Then let me get you a glass of water."
