Xi Yin

Chapter 19

Thanks to the severe beating on New Year’s Eve, Zhou Nan spent the rest of his life on the bed until the fifteenth day. First, he had a fever for 3 days and lost his appetite. Later, he lost his analgesic pump. The pain was so painful that he could hardly sleep or eat. Fifteen days, seeing a lot of weight loss

Mama Liu brought up the porridge, put it on the bedside, helped him up again, and fed him spoonful by spoonful.

"There is no rush today, Mr. Zhou is out, eat slowly."

Zhou Nan finally relaxed after hearing the words, and dared to show some painful expressions, "Mother Liu, I really can't eat, you should pour it out."

Mother Liu felt sorry for this child. She knew that this child was afraid of Mr. Zhou. If Mr. Zhou was at home, he would never dare to say such things. If Mr. Zhou was heard, he would definitely scold him, "The wings are hard, and now I have learned to go on a hunger strike to protest?"

However, Zhou Nan has not eaten properly for several days in a row. He is relying on infusions to support himself.

"Master, if you take a little bit, it's like taking medicine, ah."

Zhou Nan managed to swallow a few mouthfuls, his stomach churned so badly that he refused to eat

"Mother Liu, I really can't... Can you help me get my phone, while he's not here..."

Mama Liu looked terrified, "Do you want to call the police? You've tried it before, but it didn't work. How could you beat him when you were young? Besides, the police can't take care of housework, so you'll be beaten again."

Zhou Nan laughed, looking even more haggard, "No, I just want to talk to others, I'm in too much pain."

Liu Ma then handed him the phone, patted his head and went out, "I'll watch for you outside, don't be afraid."

Zhou Nan smiled reassuringly, and started to turn over his phone. He wanted to call his mother, but he knew what his mother was going to say without hitting him. , Mom will be happy if you can live a good life

Her mother has no status, so she can't enter Zhou's house, and she can't see how badly he was hurt. She only knows that he was beaten, and she thinks it's just an ordinary punishment. He doesn't want to make his mother worry, so he can't say anything

So I flipped through it, and there was already Sheng Mingjie's number on the screen. Zhou Nan dialed it, only rang a few times, and was picked up.

"Hey, wait a minute. Brother! Call!" There was a noise on the other end of the phone, and it was transferred to another person. "Zhou Nan? Why are you calling?"

The moment Sheng Mingjie's voice sounded, Zhou Nan felt aggrieved, and was almost speechless due to the sudden sourness.

"... Mingjie"

The other end of the phone gradually quieted down. Sheng Mingjie hid in his room and closed the door, "What's wrong? What happened, don't cry."

Zhou Nan really wanted to follow him, tell him that he was in pain, wronged, and did nothing wrong, but he was beaten... But, what's the use, Sheng Mingjie can't help him

Zhou Nan wiped away tears, "It's nothing, but I forgot to pay New Year's greetings during the New Year, and now I will make it up...Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year... I also forgot to mention it. How is the New Year? Did you get bullied by relatives and children?"

Zhou Nan laughed, the laugh was uglier than crying, the tears couldn't stop flowing, but luckily Sheng Mingjie couldn't see anything

"I'm living a good life. It's not like you don't know. I'm rich. My family has booked an entire island for the New Year. There are fireworks at night. My parents are very loving. I have been to the world of two by myself, and I don't care Come to me... The children of my relatives are too naughty, they tore down my figures, I can't beat them, I'm so mad... I, I have a good time, really."

Sheng Mingjie wouldn't believe it completely, the choked voice was full of grievances and sadness, he couldn't see it, but he wasn't deaf

He hung up the phone without a word

Zhou Nan was stunned when he heard the beeping sound of disconnection. Before he was sad, Sheng Mingjie's video invitation jumped out

Zhou Nan shrank back into the quilt in a hurry, fiddled with her bangs to cover the wound on her forehead, and pushed the infusion stand away to make sure nothing would show up before switching on the video

After a brief black screen, Zhou Nan was lying half naked on the bed, wrapped tightly in the quilt, but still showing a little white flesh, still holding a pipa half-hidden on the screen, exciting

Sheng Mingjie coughed, cleared his throat, and forced himself to focus on Zhou Nan's face. The corners of his eyes and nose were extremely red, and his swollen double eyelids turned into single eyelids. Only when the symbol was broken did he react, and he closed his hand

"What's wrong? Why are you crying like this? You drank a bucket of water last night."

Zhou Nan forced a smile, "No. How about you, how is your new year?"

Sheng Mingjie turned the camera down and showed him his unfit leg, "I was just lying at home limping, and I couldn't join in the fun. A bunch of three aunts and six wives came back with their families, and they had a headache from the quarrel."

"That's great..." Zhou Nan was a little envious. Although he was almost used to the pain coming from his body, he still couldn't help frowning. He buried himself in the pillow and said in a deep voice, "I don't want to have a vacation, I want to start school. "

"Well, me too." Sheng Mingjie looked over there, only seeing half of Zhou Nanrou's face buried in the pillow, looking very fragile,

"I don't want to start school, I just miss you."

Zhou Nan suddenly opened his eyes wide, and a blush appeared on his pale face.

Only then did Sheng Mingjie come to his senses, he thought he had just thought about that sentence, but he didn't expect to say it, and he blushed inexplicably

"I miss you very much too." Zhou Nan said, rubbing his face on the pillow, wiping away the tears welling up in his eyes, not noticing that the gauze on his forehead leaked out

"What's wrong with your head?" Sheng Mingjie saw it and frowned.

Zhou Nan stretched out his hand to pluck the bangs in a panic, which involved the injury on his back, and couldn't help but gasped

"Where else is injured?" The tense voice sounded again, but Zhou Nan had no desire to talk, unwilling to show him the wound

"It's okay, I knocked it accidentally..."

He wanted to say something more, but Mama Liu pushed the door open and came in with a very low voice, "Mr. is back."

Zhou Nan's complexion changed, "I'll tell you next time." He hung up quickly, handed the phone to Mama Liu, huddled under the bed and pretended to be dead

After a while, Zhou Shengnian really came in, put his hand on his forehead, and said leisurely, "I heard from the kitchen, how many bites have you eaten?"

"Well. I just don't have an appetite today." Zhou Nan didn't dare to move, his body was stiff, Zhou Shengnian seemed to be in a good mood today, and didn't bother with him, "It's best not to let me hear this sentence tomorrow."

Zhou Nan nodded, seeing people walking out, he relaxed. He put his hands on his chest, feeling the heartbeats, and gradually fell asleep

Sheng Mingjie was staring at the phone in a daze, he read it right, at the last touch, Zhou Nan lifted up a bit of the quilt, exposing shoulder blades with staggered green and black, red, yellow and yellow liquid oozing from the gauze, want to come here That's why Zhou Nan was crying all the time, but how could he be hurt like this in his own home?

"Mister is back..." A woman said that, what is going on...

Sheng Mingjie didn't understand. He just vaguely felt that he had touched another completely different world. He wanted to help Zhou Nan, but where should he start?

"Brother! Do you want to eat the pancakes? They were just fried." The second son of the Sheng family opened the door and found his brother's serious face. He was startled. "What's wrong?"

"I'm not hungry, you eat."

This year, Sheng Mingjie is [-], and Zhou Nan is also [-]. They are still children attached to their families. They can't get rid of the shackles of their families. ready to break ground

Sheng Mingjie returned to school a week early. There were not many people living in the dormitory upstairs. It was cold and humid at night. The sudden loss of heating in the north made him feel a little uncomfortable. Why did I come so early, I just subconsciously wanted to get closer to Zhou Nan, lying on the bed unconsciously thinking, what is Zhou Nan doing now?

He didn't dare to call casually, and he still had some scruples about that secretive gentleman. He stared at the phone for a long time, and finally just ordered a takeaway

40 minutes later, someone knocked on the door

"Tail number 2063, your takeaway." Sheng Mingjie took it, looked up, and paused, "Chen Huai?"

Chen Huai was dressed in bright yellow overalls, took off his mysterious hat, and grinned, "Hey, I didn't expect that."

"You didn't go back during the Chinese New Year?" Sheng Mingjie brought the meal in, but Chen Huai didn't come in

"I spent the New Year at Brother Qin's house, and there is no one in my house." He lifted a pile of plastic bags on the ground and said hello, "I'm still working, so I won't be with you anymore, so farewell!"

"Well, bye, be careful on the road." Sheng Mingjie yelled at the back of the hurriedly leaving, and turned around to close the door, "Brother Qin..."

He raised the corner of his mouth, as if he had discovered some secret

Chen Huai drove all the way, delivered the last order through the streets and alleys, and finally returned to the store to take off his clothes

"Boss, it's time for me to get off work! Let's settle my wages today."

The boss came out of the smoky back kitchen, bringing out a puff of oily smoke, looked at his list, and counted out a stack of banknotes from the cash register

"I have to accept cash, trouble."

The boss clicked out a few and gave them to him. Chen Huai took them and couldn't find his eyes with a smile, "Thank you boss, this is the last trouble. Only with cash can I feel like I'm making money."

The boss pressed his phone and looked, "Oh, yes, it's been a month with me. School is about to start, isn't it?"

"Yes, you have to study hard at the beginning of school." Chen Huai collected the money, folded the work clothes neatly and put them on the table

"Okay, come back when you want to come again, I'm short of manpower all the year round." The boss waved to Chen Huai with a cigarette in his mouth, "Go."

Chen Huai jumped and ran away, jumped all the way home, opened the door and yelled

"Brother, do you use the toilet? I'll take a shower."

"No need." Qin Chuji came out from the back room, took his backpack, took out all the contents, and stuffed it into the washing machine. Chen Huai quickly took off his coat and trousers, threw them in together, and then ran into the bathroom trembling.

Qin Chuji smiled, "I'm getting less and less particular..."

When Chen Huai came out of the bathroom, feeling refreshed, he ran into the back room and got into Qin Chuji's bed, "It's so cold."

Qin Chuji touched his feet, it was indeed ice, like a rock, "What's the matter? Is the bathroom hot water machine broken?"

"No, I stood there blowing my hair for a long time. The heat from my feet has all gone away." Chen Huai shook his head in his arms, and the arm resting on his pillow did not move.

"How can I turn the page like this?" Qin Chuji smiled and nodded his head

Chen Huai thought for a while, turned over, lay down in his arms, and lay still on his lower abdomen, "I won't disturb you, just look."

Qin Chuji let him lean on him, got used to being leaned on by him, and immersed himself in the book after a while. When it was dark and rubbed his eyes, Chen Huai fell asleep in his arms. Delivering food is definitely physical work. He should be tired from running from early morning to afternoon, but Qin Chuji didn't let him go after dinner.Stretching out a hand to caress the soft cheeks, "Wake up, have a meal before going to sleep."

Chen Huai rubbed against his hand without opening his eyes.

Qin Chuji smiled and shrank back into the bed. When both of them were lying on the pillow, he kissed Chen Huai deeply.

Finally woke up this time, rubbing his eyes in a daze, "Oh, it's getting dark..."

"Yeah, let's go out and eat. Get up quickly, don't eat tonight if you don't get up, let's do some exercise." Qin Chuji stretched his hand towards his trouser waist

Chen Huai was so frightened that he jumped up from the bed and woke up instantly, "Get up, I'm up."

"Clean up quickly." Qin Chuji smiled and scratched his nose, then went to wash his hands and change his clothes

The university town was still very quiet during the holiday night, and there were not many people. The western restaurant that Qin Chuji brought Chen Huai to had even fewer people.

Qin Chuji pressed him on the chair, ordered a meal, and suggested, "Then why don't you go to a private movie later?"

"No." Chen Huai thought for a while, then shook his head. You can't be too casual outside, not as comfortable as you are at home. "Let's watch at home."

"A good hug is a reward, why do you take advantage of me every day?" Qin Chuji still doesn't know his thoughts, "I feel that I am at a disadvantage." "Where is the disadvantage? You like it very much." The embarrassment in the past has turned into righteousness. After all, this New Year's Eve, Chen Huai has become the Qin family's recognized family member.Now that Chen Huai thinks of Mother Qin's surprise expression, he still wants to laugh. The predecessors planted trees and the descendants enjoy the shade. Without Yao Yu, he would not have been so successful. Thinking of this, his envy for Yao Yu almost disappeared.

"Or I'll treat you tonight. I have money." Chen Huai thought about it, and decided to make up for it

Seeing Chen Huai becoming more and more confident, Qin Chuji had a kind of hidden pleasure of cultivation, which was not enough for outsiders, "Okay, you come."

Chen Huai was satisfied and concentrated on eating, when he suddenly saw the little flowers on the plate for decoration, and smelled a very familiar fragrance

"There are Sophora japonica...does Western food also serve Sophora japonica?"

"Maybe it's an improvement made by this store. Do you like Sophora japonica?" Qin Chuji also found out, a few small white flowers, very cute

"Of course I like it. That's my name." Chen Huai smiled, and suddenly remembered something, "Guess why I'm called Chen Huai."

"Born in the blooming period of Sophora japonica, isn't it?" Qin Chuji thought for a while, Chen Huai's birthday is easy to remember, May 5th

"Excellent!" Chen Huai praised him first, and then began to explain slowly

"I wasn't originally called Chen Huai. My dad named me Chen Yu at first, because he had no talent. My mother suffered a lot with him. He had a guilty conscience and wanted to put this word on me. In the name, alert myself, and even more alert me, so that I will not be ashamed of others in the future. But my mother disagreed, she said that my father is the best man in the world, and he did not make her suffer at all. She saw Huai Huai outside the window The tree is tall and luxuriant, so I changed the word shame twice and called me Chen Huai."

"Do you like the name?"

"I like it. How can I not like it? This is the only thing in this world that still has the memory of the two of them."

Chen Huai's face was full of nostalgia, but it was much less sad.Time is really a miraculous thing, it can dilute many feelings, sad, sad, and difficult to control, but time can also refine many essences, making the beauty more beautiful and the unforgettable more unforgettable

Qin Chuji touched his head and looked at him with a smile
