Chapter 32 "I Have a Friend"

The Northern Film Academy is close to the westernmost part of the city, and the moonlight is very good from the subway exit, but it is a pity that some people don't want to watch it.

Bai Yan's face was very calm, and he finished his conclusion in a hurry.

Sui Yi was still holding the folder for Bai Yan's supplementary lessons in his hand, with an expression like being struck by lightning.

Bai Yan stood there, his expression slowly disappearing.

"Do I like you like this?"

Sui Yi's under nineteen-year-old head is full of college entrance examination sites and music theory knowledge, but she doesn't like the word, let alone the like from the mouth of the same sex.

Bai Yan waited for him for a while, but got no answer, then lowered his head and kicked the gravel beside his feet, and said slowly, "This is just my own problem."

Sui Yi stood there sluggishly, letting Bai Yan pull the things in his hand away. A few pieces of paper in the folder were exposed, which made his palms hurt a little.

Bai Yan squeezed the folder rustling, feeling like some power was accumulating in his body.

The lights at the subway entrance snapped, the lights were turned down a degree, and the faces of the two tacitly blended into the shadows.

"I'll go first." Bai Yan no longer waited for him, and walked back without raising his head.

Sui Yi felt that she was pinned to the spot, no sound came out of her throat, her hands that were already empty were hanging by her side, and she felt a little sour.

Bai Yan ran farther and farther in the field of vision, and finally disappeared around the corner.

Sui Yi stayed in the night wind for a long time as if she was punished for standing, and her nailed feet finally loosened a little, but they were so heavy that people panicked.

Like a poor student who had just accepted a new subject, he thought seriously about Bai Yan's words.

Sui Yi took two steps and felt sore in her calf, so she logically blamed the inability to walk due to waiting too long at the subway entrance.

Does Bai Yan like him? Walking slowly with Yi, his thoughts drifted a little, and he realized that this was indeed Bai Yan's own problem.

Then what is his own problem, Sui Yi's heart skips a beat, what if Bai Yan likes him, or whether he likes Bai Yan or not.

Sui Yi was taken aback by her own thoughts, and she had the illusion that the top of her head was struck by lightning.

He vaguely felt some sweat on his back, and it was a little cold when the wind blew.

Sui Yi pulled up his inexplicably heavy legs and walked back quickly.

The glass door of the dormitory has been closed, there is a dim incandescent lamp in the hall, and a few bugs are flying around the light bulb.

Sui Yi hesitated for a while, instead of opening the door, he took out his mobile phone and squatted on the steps of the dormitory building.

He learned Bai Yan's usual method and typed a few words in the search bar that came with him: Boys like boys.

After midnight, the internet speed is very fast, and several related questions appear below the search bar, "Is it normal for boys to like boys?", "How to treat boys who like boys", it seems that many people have been confused.

Sui Yi's expression became darker, and he clenched his back molars unconsciously, his chin tightened.

After a while, he found another key word and continued typing in the search neatly: homosexuality.

The explanation of this term is clear and concise, indicating that Encyclopedia has carefully explained the issue of Bai Yan. Homosexuality belongs to a type of sexual orientation, which refers to the attraction of emotions, love or sex to the same sex.

Sui Yi held her phone in one hand and her thigh in the other, and read more than a dozen long and short articles.

The phone beeped into an automatic shutdown, waking him up from the world of electronic data.

The room opposite the door was dark, and even the doors and windows above the main entrance were dark.

Sui Yi walked lightly and stood at the door of Bai Yan's room for a few minutes.

The whole dormitory building was quiet, even the outside of the red building became quiet. He took out the key from his pocket, found the keyhole through the black rustling, and opened the door to enter the dormitory.

Sui Yi found a power bank to charge the phone, and then waited for the phone to turn on while in a daze.

He opened and closed the chat box with Bai Yan several times, and finally closed the software.

The student network reminded that Faxiao had just left a message for him, and Sui Yi was in a mess, and immediately called Faxiao.

"Good buddy, wait for me, I'll go to the balcony." The beep sounded only once, and the opposite side picked it up.

"Well." Sui Yi responded to him and organized the problem in his mind.

"What's wrong, brother?" Faxiao asked him.

Suiyi's throat hurt so dull as if she couldn't make a sound, and after a while of silence, she said, "I have something to ask you."

"Hey, you said." Fa Xiao heard something wrong in his tone.

"I have a classmate." Suiyi gave Bai Yan a name: "He asked me today..."

He spoke halfway, his voice hoarse.

"Ah? What are you asking?" Fa Xiao shuddered and asked shiveringly.

Sui Yi hesitated for a few seconds and said, "He asked me if he likes me?"

"Ah?" Faxiao asked suspiciously, "Why does she ask you if she likes you?"

Sui Yi stopped for a while, and copied Bai Yan's original words without any creativity: "He said that he would be very happy if I praised him, and he would also be happy to pick him up, so he thinks he likes me?"

He let out a small laugh and said, "My God, we Suiyi have finally become sensible. Before winter has passed, spring has already come! Which girl, is she a star? Isn't she beautiful!"

"It's a boy." Sui Yi replied.

"Ah?" With a small voice, he split a fork: "I'm stupid, how come you're a man, you've run into a pervert?"

"...He's not a pervert." The signal light of the power bank flashed a few times, and Sui Yi was a little irritable.

"A man likes a man, isn't he perverted?" Fa Xiao continued, "Aren't there a lot of people like this in your film school? You're so unlucky..."

"He's not a pervert." Sui Yi interrupted him badly.

"...Okay." He made a small voice and became weak, "Do his parents know that he is like this?"

Sui Yi paused and said, "His parents seem to have passed away."

"No wonder, no one cares when my parents are gone." Fa Xiao's tone was a little regretful.

Sui Yi frowned and said unceremoniously, "Forget it, you fucking know shit."

Before he could speak, he hung up the phone first.

The dead silence in the room was unpleasant, and the indicator light of the charging treasure went off again, leaving only two fluorescent green dots, glowing faintly.

Lying on the bed with his head up, Sui Yi decided to solve these confusions by himself. He didn't think there was anything wrong with Bai Yan, but he didn't have some good explanations to dialectically.

He is also willing to take care of the white banquet, whether it is running up and down in the Academic Affairs Office, going to the warehouse to pick up express delivery, or picking up people at the subway station.

Bai Yan is because of those who like him. If he doesn't do this, will Bai Yan still like him? Sui Yi turned over and stared at him with his arms on his back. If Bai Yan didn't like him, would he still do it?

As Yi thought more and more, his head and limbs became very heavy.

Sui Yi slept very lightly all night, and was woken up by birdsong outside the house before she vomited white.

He was still wearing the jacket he didn't take off yesterday, and the hood of the jacket stuck on his back and hurt.

The full battery indicator was on for a long time, Suiyi took the phone, only a new message from Xiaofa, apologized, and told Suiyi not to take it to heart.

The message was very short and did not mention another person, as if Bai Yan did not exist.

Suddenly there was a light sound at the door, and Sui Yi felt that her neurons were all rushing to the eardrum, and she listened intently.

There was a sound of opening the door from the opposite direction, and after ten minutes, it was gently closed again.

Sui Yi could not hear footsteps, and imagined Bai Yan going back and forth in the corridor.

He glanced at the phone screen, it was exactly half past five.

Other voices rang out one after another outside the window. The cleaning workers sweeping the floor and the garbage truck running one after another. After waiting for a while, Bai Yan finally couldn't find any movement.

After the mid-term exam, the rate of skipping classes skyrocketed. Sui Yi was overwhelmed with things in her heart, and she took the stage to call her with a bad attitude.

The roster has been reprinted twice, and the asterisk before Bai Yan's name has disappeared, and he has become an ordinary student in the performance department.

Sui Yi tickled Bai Yan's name, then raised his eyes and glanced around the classroom.

In fact, he didn't need to glance, the moment he entered the classroom, he could feel that Bai Yan was not here.

There was an indescribable feeling in Sui Yi's heart, as if she was walking steadily on the road, she suddenly stepped on a deep depression and felt unbalanced.

He found a back seat, leaned on the table with his arms on his back, and the tiredness from waking up in the middle of the night surged up. As soon as Sui Yi closed his eyes and rested, he felt that there was someone sitting next to him.

He opened his eyes and saw You Cheng sitting beside him with a sullen face, a blank expression on his face.

Sui Yi glanced at him and said nothing.

You Cheng seemed to sense his gaze, and slowly turned his face to greet him.

Sui Yi scribbled in response, turning his head to the side and continuing to be in a daze.

The phone suddenly vibrated a dozen times, and Sui Yi quickly opened the message.

The class group of the performance department is discussing the team building for Christmas. Several girls who have been on the news a few times are eager to gather together, while talking about the plan to shoot the class vlog.

"You can also do everyone's final homework!" one of the girls said in the group.

"...There will be reporters when so many people go out?" Someone objected.

The class leader jumped out for the first time and suggested that everyone get to know each other through this group building.

Sui Yi clicked off the prompt with a blank face, and then turned the phone to silent.

The class guide didn't wait for him to reply, so he was busy confirming with everyone, completely ignoring it was the class time: "Except for the white banquet to go home, will everyone go? I'll arrange a car for everyone the day after tomorrow, and then I'll be a photographer. !"

Sui Yi immediately sent him a private chat: "Bai Yan asks for leave?"

"Ah, yes, don't count him when you count the name."

"When did he ask for it? How long was the leave? Why did he ask for the leave?" Sui Yi typed quickly and sent three consecutive questions to the class director.

The class director paused for a while, and silently tolerated Sui Yi's leader-like attitude: "I asked for it today, I'm going back to my hometown, and I'll be back on New Year's Day. If you have time to plan this Christmas event, we'll discuss it together tomorrow."

"...Where is his hometown?" Suiyi ignored the second half of the words.

The 100-minute class seemed to be stretched to an infinite length. When Sui Yi looked at her phone for the fourth time, it was more than half an hour before the get out of class ended.

You Cheng sat at the entrance of this row of lecture halls, as if froze, his expression changed and he looked forward.

Sui Yi felt like she was being set on fire, her ears were buzzing and she couldn't hear anything.

Probably because his expression was too ugly, even You Cheng turned his head to look at him and asked feebly, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's okay." Sui Yi replied calmly.

You Cheng glanced at him and said, "Then can you stop shaking the chair all the time?"

Sui Yi took back the feet that were randomly crushing on the front seat.

"I'm a little dizzy, thank you." You Cheng said expressionlessly.

Sui Yi glanced at him, and suddenly remembered the day when Bai Yan and Bai Yan met him in Ximen Square.

An idea jumped in unexpectedly, Sui Yi hesitated for a while, then leaned closer and asked, "You Cheng?"

He smelled an unpleasant smell, probably the smell of alcohol overnight.

You Cheng turned his face numbly.

"There's a problem." Sui Yi struggled in her heart for a long time, but she still couldn't say words like homosexuality, liking men, and so on.

He thought for a while before asking, "How do you know that you like someone?"

You Cheng looked at him like a ghost, then put on the actor's expression when he was interviewed, and said, "Didn't you get bribed by some media to ask me?"

Sui Yi immediately showed an expression of disgust: "..."

"I can refuse to answer this question." You Cheng's voice was vague, and he felt like he was going to fall asleep in the next second.

Sui Yi ended the conversation with a bad face.

"Or you can ask another question." You Cheng suddenly became interested, and a smile appeared on his lifeless face.

"Are you in a situation?" You Cheng asked.

Sui Yi was taken aback by him, and then took a minute to find a new name for Bai Yan in his heart: "I have a friend."

After having the title, he smoothly concealed Bai Yan's gender and explained the events of the past few months.

After You Cheng listened carefully, he smiled and said, "Isn't this a confession to you?"

Sui Yi's expression suddenly turned blank, looking at him as if he didn't understand the words.

You Cheng said, "He's not discussing academic issues with you, so what are you struggling with?"

"...I don't know." Suiyi sighed, feeling a little heavier in her heart.

"What do you want to do now?" You Cheng's face showed maturity beyond his age, and he followed suit.

Thinking this word is very provocative, Sui Yi thought about it for a while and said honestly: "I want to see him."

You Cheng asked: "After reading it, then what?"

"I didn't think so." Sui Yi said.

"Then go, let's go." You Cheng twitched the corners of his mouth: "Can you still see your face?"

Sui Yi lowered his head, and the broken hair fell in front of his eyes, blocking his eyes.

"Is it Bai Yan?" You Cheng lowered his voice.

Sui Yi showed a stunned expression, opened her mouth, but was speechless.

You Cheng smiled inexplicably: "Who else could it be? And a friend."

The get out of class bell rang, cheerfully and crisply breaking the dullness of the entire classroom.

You Cheng stood up neatly, gave Sui Yi a place, and said, "Go ahead."

Sorry for being late again (dog who apologizes every day
