"I don't know." Chu Zihang answered in a very standard manner. Not answering some sensitive questions is the best answer.

"It's boring." Xia Mi sighed.

Chu Zihang thought for a moment and asked, "Have you and Lin Nian never spoken?"

"Said."

"Why don't you just introduce yourself."

"I didn't have a chance. The only chance I had to talk to him was when I was drinking water from a thermos cup in gym class and accidentally burned my mouth and splashed all over him."

"He should take the initiative to send you to the infirmary. This is an opportunity." Even Chu Zihang, who doesn't read comics, can deduce the development of some classic kingly plots.

"No, he only chased me and asked me what brand the thermos cup was in one class. He wanted to buy one as a gift for his sister's birthday." Xia Mi took a deep breath and looked at the ceiling in confusion.

"It's indeed what Lin Nian can say." Chu Zihang nodded, and then fell into silence again, "Then he probably doesn't like you."

"What kind of topic terminator are you talking about?" Xia Mi was stunned and stiffly lowered his head to look at the boy's black broken hair, "Are you saying something that a young girl in Huaichun can listen to?"

"He always only contacts people he is willing to contact. If he likes you, you should be friends by then." Chu Zihang said softly.

"Is this true? I fell out of love when I was still secretly in love?" Xia Mi scratched his head and looked confused, "Does he usually talk a lot when he is with you? Senior brother, you seem to understand straight men like him very well.

"

"What is a straight man?" Chu Zihang's knowledge blind spot was touched again.

"People who don't understand the style and don't understand what's being said are called straight men." Xia Mi looked at Chu Zihang with squinted eyes.

"He is very smart. He has always been very smart and can understand a lot of potential information." Chu Zihang paused and said.

"Where can I tell?"

"We don't talk on the court, we just make eye contact and he knows whether I want him to pass the ball or break through."

"Oh my god." Xia Mi fainted.

"Give up." Chu Zihang glanced at Xia Mi and suggested, "If you pester him, he will only think you are crazy."

"What about lingering longer? Is there any chance that he will also become a psychopath?" Xia Mi's brain circuit is very strange.

Chu Zihang actually thought about this possibility, and then nodded expressionlessly, "It's possible, but it will take a long time."

"Senior brother, can you give me some constructive suggestions to shorten this 'quite a long time'?" Xia Mi raised his right index finger and thumb, pinched the distance and stuck out his tongue.

"So this is why you asked me to help you sort out the reference books today." Chu Zihang turned his head and looked at the books on the table as if he understood something.

"Hehe." Xia Mi smiled, without any shame at being exposed.

"Why do you think I know Lin Nian very well?" Chu Zihang was not angry. He just picked up the pen again and started writing and drawing. The girl who had finished warming up behind him began to dance lightly on the yoga mat.

"Because many people say that you two are very similar, both in personality and ability."

"So you think I know Lin Nian as well as I know myself."

"It's a bit convoluted, but that's probably the truth."

"Then what can I do to help you?" Chu Zihang stopped writing, "In your words, you are now discussing with a straight man how to pursue another straight man."

"Senior brother, you have really seamlessly integrated into the character. No wonder you always get perfect scores in reading comprehension." Xia Mi admired Chu Zihang for labeling himself as a straight man without any resistance.

"Did I say something wrong?"

"No! Maybe senior brother, you just need to teach me how to chase you?" Xia Mi smiled, "Since you are no different from Lin Nian, maybe the method that can impress him can impress you."

"I don't know how to impress myself. I have no experience." Chu Zihang answered calmly and truthfully. Many people thought that he was a stone, including himself, who did not deny this. A stone would not analyze itself and think about its perspective.

And methods will be pierced by drops of water.

"Can't we just take our time to find this kind of thing? Senior brother, you are really stupid." The girl laughed, her voice echoing lowly in the room with a hint of teasing and frivolity.

""

Chu Zihang didn't know what to say. The cicadas chirping outside the window became louder and louder. He was quiet for a long time. He turned around and opened his mouth to say something. But at this time, he found that he was facing an empty room.

The clock is hanging on the wall and turning, and the wall is covered with silhouettes of sycamore branches and vines.

"Xia Mi?" Chu Zihang shouted.

No one answered him.

There was no one on the yoga mat in the room. Only his shadow was cast on the ground in the whole room, alone, as if the person 'Xia Mi' had never existed in the world, and all the previous conversations were just his delusions.
