It was already late at night, and the silence in the middle of the mountain was too quiet to hear the hustle and bustle of the city.

So after the mobile phone was dialed, the connection sound was very obvious, even if the receiver was not put to the ear, it could be heard clearly.

Before the third connection sound sounded, Xiao Xu held the phone tightly, and fell into hesitation between continuing and hanging up.

In the darkness, the phone screen suddenly lit up, lighting up the small space beside the bed.

Guan Ze's sleep has always been very light, he almost opened his eyes the moment the light came on, sat up and took the mobile phone placed by the bed.

The screen flickered to show a new incoming call, and the name had always been stored in Guan Ze's phone.

Guan Ze was quite surprised.

He has not dialed this number for four years, and this number has not received a call for four years, but today, after meeting that person's younger brother, he called.

Before the third call sounded, Guan Ze held the phone tightly, hesitating between connecting and hanging up.

But this hesitation did not last too long. Before the third call tone ended, the person on the other end of the phone made a decision first. He ended the call request, the ringing stopped abruptly, and the night returned to tranquility.

Guan Ze stayed in this position holding the phone for a minute, then slowly put the phone back on the bedside table and lay down again.

He didn't want to speculate too much about the purpose of that person's call at this time, but forced himself to get the name "Xiao Xu" out of his mind.Guan Ze has done this many times in the past four years, and it can be said that he is quite skilled.

It took four years for Guan Ze to go from feeling uneasy at the beginning to downplaying later, and finally today, after receiving that person's call, he was able to calm down very quickly.

But the interrupted sleep could not be continued anyway, Guan Ze tried his best to let go of his mind and did not recall the past, but he still couldn't close his eyes until the alarm clock rang at dawn, and Guan Ze quickly got up from the bed again.

At the beginning of a new day, Guan Ze still has a lot of things to do. The phone call last night was like a hallucination, which was quickly forgotten by Guan Ze. After a few days of busy study, Guan Ze has almost completely forgotten that he met Zhou Di was surprised the day he received a call from Xiao Xu again.

Zhou Di reappeared at this time.

It just so happened that Guan Ze was very busy that day, and after a day of study, he had to continue moving.

Guan Ze had lived in Rongcheng for four years, and it was impossible for him to carry all the luggage by himself when he came back.He packed most of the things and put them in the former rented house. After settling down here, he asked the landlord to help ship them over there.

Just after class, the shipping company called and said they were waiting downstairs at Guan Ze's house to sign for delivery.

Guan Ze didn't like to bother people, so he didn't want to make people wait too long. After receiving the call, he hurried back.

As soon as he left the school gate, he heard a happy voice behind him: "Brother Guan Ze!"

Just listening to the voice, Guan Ze also recognized who that person was. He turned his head in astonishment, and saw Zhou Di who was jogging towards him with a smile from another path.

Zhou Di carried a schoolbag today, and looked very student-like.

Guan Ze settled down, wondering why Zhou Di would come to him on his own initiative.

Zhou Di quickly ran to Guan Ze's side, and said with a smile, "What a coincidence, Brother Guan Ze, I just finished playing basketball, and I was wondering if I would meet you, but I did. It's really fate."

I'm still here to play... not to find myself.

Realizing in his heart that he was acting affectionate, Guan Ze was a little embarrassed, but Zhou Di didn't see it, and was still very happy, and chatted with Guan Ze familiarly.

"Brother Guan Ze, why are you walking so fast?"

Guan Ze replied honestly: "The shipping company is waiting for me downstairs."

"Hey, did you buy any furniture?" Zhou Di's youthful face showed disbelief, probably because he was surprised that Guan Ze's shabby house could accommodate any furniture.

"No. It's the luggage I haven't brought from Rongcheng before, and some books."

"That should be heavy, right?"

Guan Ze was afraid that he would be enthusiastic, so he said immediately: "It's not heavy, and..."

"Let's go, hurry up, don't make people wait too long."

After finishing speaking, Guan Ze was held by Zhou Di's wrist again. The young man had great strength and walked away at a fast speed. Before Guan Ze's bumbling rejections were finished, they had already arrived at the delivery man's door. before.

Not as energetic as a young man, Guan Ze was out of breath after running for such a long distance, and he still hadn't calmed down after taking a deep breath in front of the freightman for a long time.

The two freightmen were tall and big, and their attitude was very bad. Before Guan Ze could speak, the middle-aged freightman yelled dissatisfiedly: "Oh, how long have you been waiting? Why are you going?" Yes! Only now."

Guan Ze's focus was not on the other party's bad attitude, but that the other party regarded him and Zhou Di as companions. The "you" made Guan Ze a little awkward. He quickly broke away from Zhou Di's hand, and with Zhou Di After pulling away, he said to the freight man, "Sorry, I was a little busy before."

In fact, the waiting time was only about ten minutes, and the freight man did not call an hour before delivery as required.Guan Ze was too lazy to worry about it, he just wanted to move the things upstairs quickly, he said as briefly as possible: "No. 10, 1th floor, the elevator is right after entering the unit door, please."

The older delivery man continued to yell: "The postage does not include the door-to-door fee. We only deliver it downstairs, not upstairs, and even if there is an elevator."

"No, I told the delivery side specifically that you must pay the door-to-door fee and deliver it to the door, right..."

The older freightman interrupted Guan Ze roughly: "You read this list yourself, read it yourself!"

Guan Ze glanced at the shipping bill, only to realize something was wrong.The former landlord sent him a freight company with a very low price and a very bad reputation, and he did not pay the door-to-door fee.

Because he was not sure when he would be able to rent a suitable house here, Guan Ze paid the room fee in Rongcheng for two months, which was enough to pay three times the shipping fee.The former landlord probably thought that Guan Ze would not return to Rongcheng in the future, so he had no way to trouble him, so he took Guan Ze's money very dishonestly.

Looking at the cartons that Guan Ze packed before, after being handled by the violent freight forwarders of this unreliable shipping company, several boxes were torn and dirty, and they happened to be filled with Guan Ze’s love. book of.

Guan Ze suddenly had a fit of cleanliness, and felt very uncomfortable.

He is not a complete idiot in life, but he does have great difficulties in interpersonal communication. This is the first time he has encountered such a problem. For a moment, he didn't know how to deal with it, so he frowned habitually , pursing his lips tightly, staring at the broken box without saying a word.

Probably because Guan Ze's temperament is too cold, every time he shows this expression, it will make people feel arrogant and rude, even though he didn't mean to offend people, but this expression still made the young freightman feel offended.He saw that Guan Ze was paying attention to the broken cardboard box, and he was a little worried that Guan Ze would not sign "the outer packaging is in good condition".

The young freightman was even angrier than the older freightman, he raised his voice, bluffing to suppress Guan Ze with his voice: "Handsome guy, we've been waiting for you here for so long on a hot day, and you still have to wait What? Can you sign it quickly! We have to rush to send it off next time."

While talking, the young freightman began to roughly unload Guan Ze's luggage from the truck, and the older freightman stuffed the list into Guan Ze's hand.

Guan Ze hadn't moved yet, but Zhou Di, who had been standing quietly behind Guan Ze, suddenly took a quick step forward, and before the old freightman's hand touched Guan Ze, he was suddenly grabbed by the wrist.

Zhou Di stood between Guan Ze and the middle-aged freight man, and his young but tall body gave the other party an invisible sense of oppression.His hands were strong, and he immediately squeezed the middle-aged freightman's wrist, turning red.

Originally, this wasn't a big deal, at most it could be a few verbal disputes between the two sides, and Guan Ze didn't know how to quarrel at all, so it would be difficult to quarrel.

But Zhou Di's action of restraining people was really provocative, as if he was looking for trouble for nothing.This action made the already unpleasant atmosphere suddenly tense, but Zhou Di, who caused all this, still looked down at the middle-aged freightman with a boyish and innocent smile, and said, "Uncle, if you have something to say, please speak carefully." , what are you doing?"

The middle-aged freightman's face suddenly became very ugly. He was about to say something when he suddenly felt a sharp pain on his wrist. The boy's five fingers cooperated very well, and the point of force was very subtle, which made his entire wrist joint feel like it was going to hurt. As if being torn apart, he gasped in pain, but didn't say a word.

The young freightman threw the last big cardboard box out of the car, saw the situation here, yelled and jumped off the station in front of Zhou Di, but he still couldn't finish a sentence, his shoulder was crushed by Zhou Di The other hand of Zhou Di was grasped, Zhou Di didn't seem to use much force, but he felt the pain in the joint as if it was about to be torn, and he was about to scream, but Zhou Di let go of his hand quickly , let go of both of them at the same time, and took a step back.

Guan Ze standing behind Zhou Di didn't know anything, and he didn't understand why the young freightman's face suddenly changed. From his angle, Zhou Di just patted them lightly, but they were abnormal. anger.

It was a trivial matter, and Guan Ze didn't want to make a big fuss, so he quickly stepped forward and pulled Zhou Di's arm, and said, "Are you guys fighting? Just sign for it, don't make trouble."

Zhou Di turned around and smiled brightly at Guan Ze, and said innocently, "There was no fight."

The two freightmen were finally freed and took a step back at the same time. Although it was true that they had a bad attitude first, they did not do anything.

Being provoked by a kid like this, the two of them were naturally furious. After a second of pause, they shouted and pushed Zhou Di's shoulder. Zhou Di swayed, took a few steps back and nearly fell, Fortunately, Guan Ze reacted quickly and grabbed Zhou Di's arm in time, so Zhou Di did not fall.

The hot-tempered young freightman said angrily, "What do you mean!"
