How Could I Like Him

Chapter 29



Chapter 27 past

The end of the sports meeting is earlier than the daily end of school, and there is no arrangement for late self-study.

Sports students will continue to train these days and nights, after all, the competition will be coming soon.

After the training, Hou Mo returned to the dormitory carrying the bath basket. There was only one person in the dormitory, Ran Shu.

He asked casually: “Where is Brother Yu?”

Ran Shu glanced at Hou Mo and didn’t want to respond. He hesitated for a while before repliing, “Brother Yu, he went to the classroom to read.”

When Hou Yu became the monitor, he had a spare key for the class, so he abused his power and would go to the classroom to read books from time to time.

The bedroom was about light time, but the classroom didn’t. He couldn’t sleep anyway, so he simply stayed in the classroom to read.

Unexpectedly, the sports meeting was coming, and Sui Hou Yu was still serious.

Hou Mo set things up, and then said to Ran Shu, “Can you chat with me? In fact, I was very concerned about you that day and stopped talking.”

Ran Shu refused very quickly: “No.”

“I know that Brother Yu gave you a warning such as a password, but I still want to know. When I was a child, I was not very sensible. I just found him annoying. I thought about it recently. I might not understand him. For example, When I was young, I didn’t understand what mania is.”

In fact, after knowing the identity of Sui Hou Yu, Hou Mo also thought a lot.

Things that were once incomprehensible are suddenly understood. When I was young, I was ignorant, and I didn’t know that if a person is too noisy, it may be because of illness, or it may be involuntary.

Now that I think about it carefully, my guilt increases sharply.

Ran Shu was taken aback, but he didn’t expect Hou Mo to know about this.

Only a few people know that Sui Hou Yu has mania. Many people think that Sui Hou Yu has a bad personality, or is not normal, like a lunatic, but doesn’t know the secret.

I never imagined that Hou Mo actually knew.

“How did you know?” Ran Shu sat up straight for an instant, speaking faster in shock.

“So can you talk to me?”

Ran Shu sat slumped against the head of the bed again: “No.”

“We are roommates in a dormitory after all. What if I spit in your cup, rub an unwashed peach on your quilt, and secretly pour water into your shampoo?”

Ran Shu put down his phone and looked at Hou Mo, and couldn’t help asking, “You, why are you such a dog?”

“Just chat, okay?” Hou Mo was still smiling, like an angel, as if the words just now had nothing to do with him.

Ran Shu was helpless, after thinking about it for a while, he agreed. A person came in from time to time in the dormitory. It was not very quiet. Hou Mo took Ran Shu to the corridor of the fourth floor dormitory.

The floor of the dormitory that is not in use should be much quieter, giving them space to talk.

The floor here is not tiled, and the air smells of smoke and dust, and the atmosphere is very industrial.

After Ran Shu came over, she sat on a window sill and asked him, “What do you want to ask?”

It seems that people who learn to dance are very light, and Ran Shu is also very relaxed when jumping on the windowsill.

“I’m very curious about what you want to say and stop.” What Hou Mo always cared about was these few words that couldn’t be said.

Ran Shu sighed, and then said: “Furthermore, Brother Yu had a very good impression of you when he was a child, because you are the only one who is willing to coax him to sleep patiently. He has been struggling to sleep since he was a child. After all, he has mania… The nanny secretly gave him sleeping pills…”

“It turned out that I was coaxing him to sleep, just because I bothered him and didn’t want to play with him, so he was very angry, right?”

“Sure!” After Ran Shu finished speaking, he gave Hou Mo a blank look.

But soon Ran Shu came over.

He has no brains for Sui Hou Yu, but thinking about it carefully, he also understands why Hou Mo hates Sui Hou Yu. Sui Hou Yu was an abnormal child when he was a child, with a big temper, restless, and talking a lot.

Ran Shu lowered his head slightly and continued: “No, but it’s normal for you to hate him, but… he has mania, and he couldn’t control himself when he was young. Brother Yu is much better now…”

“Well, I also found that he seems to have changed a lot. He talked a lot before.”

“He was not like this at the beginning.” Ran Shu said, looking up at him, and said with the most serious expression so far, “Have you heard of electroconvulsive therapy?”

“Electric shock?” When Hou Mo asked these words, his voice was trembling.

This is a method he has only heard of in the rumors.

Ran Shu shook his head again: “Actually, it doesn’t count. It will be anesthetized, and then an electric current will be introduced into the head. It needs to be hospitalized for a while, once every other day.”

“A formal hospital?”

“Mental health center…it’s a regular hospital.”

There is also a mental health center in Hou Mo’s concept, but a small group of people directly call that mental hospital.

He sometimes passed by and saw someone slapped the window frantically, then he was controlled, and occasionally he could hear someone shouting outside the window.

He frowned slightly, his flaxen hair draped diagonally in front of his forehead, imagining how Sui Hou Yu received treatment.

Hou Mo didn’t understand this kind of treatment, but just subconsciously worried.

Ran Shu continued: “Actually, I, I think… this kind of treatment can be tolerated by Brother Yu. However, the biggest blow to him may be that his family members treat him as a mental illness. His family members do not understand him, and they feel that He hates it, so after he leaves the hospital, he doesn’t like to laugh and talks less…maybe he wants to protect himself and he doesn’t want to be friends with others.”

“why?”

“I’m afraid of being a friend, but my friend finds that he is not normal, and staying away from him will make it more sad.”

Hou Mo suddenly understood. Following Hou Yu’s avoidance of him today, he just didn’t want to be too close to him, so let’s be disappointed again.

When self-protection becomes a habit, indifference can become a disguise.

Today’s silence is all the scabs accumulated from the past pains, and I can’t wait to wrap myself in a thick shell.

If you no longer have expectations, you won’t get hurt again.

Ran Shu looked at Hou Mo and didn’t know if he was right.

He began to talk about the past: “Brother Yu, he, he has been hospitalized for several months. This is just one of the treatment methods. I don’t know anything else after going through it, and he didn’t tell him when I asked him. He originally dropped out of school. During the semester, the school wanted him to stay at the first level. As a result, Brother Yu spent a month studying on his own, and his test scores were better than those who stayed at school, so he stayed.”

After a pause, he continued to say: “He is and is for me. He is afraid that I will be bullied by others and he can’t protect me. He didn’t study well before, but he suddenly got better after that.”

After thinking for a while, he said again: “I, I heard Brother Yu said that I can fall asleep next to you. I think maybe Brother Yu hasn’t recognized you yet, but the body remembers you, so I can fall asleep close to you. ”

After that, I felt something was wrong.

Does the body remember him?

Why is it weird?

Hou Mo was also reminded, and suddenly said: “That’s it.”

Ran Shu suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and asked: “Since, since he can fall asleep by your side, can you sleep with my brother Yu?”

“Huh?!” Hou Mo was taken aback by this sudden turn.

“Brother Yu has developed to the point where he needs to inject drugs to fall asleep. Later, the drugs didn’t work well. You can do better than taking drugs, so you can help. If you have a good night’s sleep, I will give you 100 yuan. You. Open WeChat and I will send you three thousand for a monthly subscription.”

There were too many slots. Hou Mo didn’t know where to start to refute for a while, so he asked: “I will give one hundred for one sleep with me?”

“No, I don’t need you to do anything. Besides, if you do, our brother Yu is still unwilling. You are a pillow and a prop at best! You are not a friend, you are at most a sleeping friend. Besides, we have a lot of money. Ah! Let’s take the measure!”

“No…” Hou Mo said again, “It’s not about the money, the problem is that Brother Yu doesn’t pay attention to me now.”

“Then I have nothing to do.”

“How did you become friends with him in the first place?” Hou Mo could only find another way.

“I, I played cutely with him when I was a kid, but I didn’t coax him to sleep. If I coax him, can I still have your turn?”

“What about Su Anyi?”

“She helped Brother Yu fight.”

“A girl helping to fight?”

“Hehe—” Ran Shu laughed suddenly, “Yu Ge can’t beat Su Anyi, didn’t you expect it?”

Hou Mo was really stunned.

He and Sui Hou Yu will be able to draw a tie, but Sui Hou Yu can’t beat Su Anyi?

“They two actually fought?” Hou Mo couldn’t help being curious.

“It’s just to learn from each other, but Brother Yu is more able to carry Su Anyi’s opponent. If it is me, I can’t stop Su Anyi’s three moves.”

Hou Mo couldn’t help rubbing his head: “I want to think of a way. He… before adding me on WeChat, he wanted to be friends with me, right?”

“Well, but you ignored him, and now you say you bother him, and you lie. You are simply stepping on Brother Yu’s thunder spot and doing a tap dance on that spot.”

“I see, thank you for being willing to tell me this.”

Ran Shu jumped off the window sill, patted his **** and went back upstairs.

Hou Mo made a circle around the dormitory building by himself, and then quietly ran to the teaching building.

The teaching building is very quiet, like a behemoth in hibernation.

Hou Mo walked deliberately with light steps in the corridor, and finally looked in from the erected window at the class entrance, and saw that Sui Hou Yu had unlocked a new reading posture—reading on a plank.

A school uniform jacket was placed under Hou Yu’s arm, and he read the book seriously.

His hair is really thick. In this posture, Hou Mo can’t even see his face, only the tip of his nose can be seen vaguely.

Hou Mo hesitated whether to go in and follow Hou Yu to say something.

As a result, Sui Hou Yu seemed to notice him, looked up at the door, then got up and walked over to open the door and asked, “Want to come in?”

“Well, fetch things.” Hou Mo replied subconsciously.

After answering, I waited to bite my tongue.

Can’t you just say that you came to him? Hou Mo walked into the classroom, rummaged in his seat decently, and then took the book.

Sui Hou Yu also returned to his position, packed his bag and left.

Hou Mo immediately followed him out of the classroom, and did not forget to turn off the lights and lock the door of the classroom when he left.

Two people walked out of the teaching building one after another.

Sui Hou Yu was wearing a T-shirt and black loose shorts. Hou Mo kept staring at his slender legs. He always felt that Sui Hou Yu’s legs were too thin, and the shoes looked very big, as if a child was sneaking on an adult’s shoes.

Perhaps it is because in the suburbs, the sky is particularly bright.

A silver line poured out from the sky, and the line was a river where stars fell. Starry, hiding in the ripples of soft clouds from time to time.

Following Hou Yu’s fast pace, he walked quickly into the night, his thin and slender body tore away the silent night scene.

Look at that galaxy, there are many stars.

But there is always an extraordinary encounter between a star and a star.

Perhaps the dim one will become radiant because of another star.

Hou Mo quickly followed Hou Yu, clearly staggering his position, but in the shadow of the street lamp, the two people seemed to be walking side by side and close together. The height difference made up for this part.

The shadow gradually stretched and shortened, and stretched again when it was within the next light range, as if it was cuddling.

Sui Hou Yu seemed to notice and looked back at Hou Mo.

Hou Mo met his gaze and smiled gently at him.

Hou Mo’s eyes were very light, and they were coated with a layer of orange light under the shining of the street lamp, like colored glass, glowing with soft light, so gentle.

He said softly: “Actually, I am not going to the classroom to fetch books. I am looking for you.”

Sui Hou Yu asked: “Something?”

“Well, something is up.”
