like a dog

The cold wave in Zhangzhou this year came earlier than in previous years. As Christmas approached, the temperature dropped even lower.The Meteorological Observatory predicts that there will be a heavy snowfall in January. The winter in Zhangzhou has been devoid of ice and snow for nearly two years. Lin Xun doesn’t feel much, but Yu Qi is very excited. He mentioned it when he texted him and said again.

"Brother, I'll go back to Zhangzhou with you at that time! I want to see snow, Qingying hasn't seen snow in many years."

"When it snows, it's below zero. You're so afraid of the cold, you can't go out even when you're here."

Lin Xun glanced at the row of suits and ties in front of him. Even though the festival was approaching, the shopping mall at two o'clock in the afternoon on weekdays still seemed empty.He planned to go to Qingying with Lu Yuan next weekend and meet Yu Wen before going abroad.Tickets and hotels have been booked, but the gift has not been selected yet.

Yu Qi couldn't help shrinking his neck, as if snowflakes had already drifted into his neckline.He turned over in the quilt and said, "Then I'll wait upstairs at your house to watch."

Lin Xun smiled helplessly: "You may not be able to live in my house."

"why……"

Yu Qi remembered that his brother's date was Alpha, and he really couldn't live in his house as an Omega, so he muttered sullenly: "Then I'll go live with Han Xun."

Lin Xun frowned, Yu Qi got closer and closer to Han Xun after he went to college.Although he didn't interfere, he still didn't want him to have more contact with Han Xun in his heart.He admitted that he was prejudiced against members of the Han family, even if Han Xun looked like him, it would not change his opinion.

I don't know how Han Zheng has educated Han Xun these years. Such a calm person has raised such a son with such a flamboyant personality.When I saw it in Xiaoduchuan that time, the lawless tone really reminded me of my own childhood.It was like the spoiled self from before, who jumped out of a parallel world and stood in front of him carelessly, making it even more difficult for him to have a good impression of this person.

"If you want to come, I'll book a hotel for you, don't bother others all the time."

Yu Qi didn't notice the indifference in Lin Xun's tone, only hearing that Lin Xun agreed to let him come back, laughing so loudly.A text message notification sounded in his ear, Yu Qi glanced at the screen, and hurriedly got off the bed: "Brother, wait for me to get off, I will pick up a courier."

Lin Xun listened to the ringing of the slippers on the other end of the phone, and said with a smile, "What else did you buy?"

"I didn't buy it, it was sent by Brother Lu Yuan." Yu Qi wrapped up his down jacket, put on a scarf and ran downstairs. Li Quan fell asleep lying on the counter. Yu Qi stepped lightly and carefully pushed it away. Going out of the store, he whispered, "Didn't I miss that book last time? Brother Lu Yuan said he had it there, so he gave it to me."

"When will you..."

Lin Xun sighed, he didn't even know that Lu Yuan had contact with Yu Qi.But if you think about it carefully, Lu Yuan and Yu Qi are not much different in age, and they can be regarded as the same age.They are all college students, so it is normal to have common topics.Lu Yuan took care of him too much, and he always made him forget this. When he thought of it at first glance, that small sense of guilt came back.

Lin Xun coughed lightly and said, "Go back early when you get it, it's cold, don't catch a cold."

"Brother, you are the same. Dad wants to see you. It doesn't matter if you have any presents or not. He is happy to see you." Yu Qi sniffed and walked to the express cabinet. Lin Xun said hello, as if smiling.Hearing him laugh, Yu Qi laughed too.

When I saw him in the bar that time, he had a smile on his face when he talked to himself, but when he looked into his eyes, he felt that he was not smiling.But listening to him now, I can't see his face, but I feel that the smile in his words is from the heart.

That's great.

Yu Qi hung up the phone and heaved a sigh of relief. As soon as he put his hand into his pocket, a chill came from his ears.He was so cold that he shrank his neck and looked back, his feet wobbled and almost staggered and fell to the ground.

"What are you thinking? I don't even look at the road."

Han Xun followed Yu Qi all the way from the door of the store, but he didn't realize it. If he was walking at night, he probably wouldn't feel it if he was planning to put it in a sack and sell it.Han Xun held Yu Qi firmly with his hand that had just finished icing his ears, and said with a tusk, "Did you fall?"

"You...why are you here?" Yu Qi managed to stand still, but he still held on to Han Xun tightly and forgot to let go.This person is always elusive, not to mention, he is still a Beta, he has no smell and walks lightly, which scares him every time.

"I'll come here if I want to see you," Han Xun hooked his neck with a smile, "I'm on the phone with your brother again? He's about to get married, and you're still so clingy to him?"

Yu Qi glimpsed that the tip of his nose was red, and he didn't know where he was squatting, and his lips were frozen white.He untied the scarf and wrapped it around Han Xun's neck indiscriminately, covering his mouth: "You're the one who talks too much."

"Why don't you cling to me? I don't have an owner yet." Han Xun moved closer, his voice was mostly muffled by the scarf, "Brother Calling, listen?"

Yu Qi was used to being teased by this man, knowing that he was too thin-skinned to speak against him, so he turned around and left.Han Xun followed Yu Qi, keeping a step away, and said in a drawn-out voice, "I ran away from home, this time you have to take me in."

Yu Qi said unhappily: "No, there is no place."

"Then I'll sleep in front of your shop. When I get up tomorrow, remember to collect my body."

Yu Qi stood still, and when he turned around, he saw Han Xun smiling like I knew you couldn't bear it, and he said with a straight face, "Why did you make your father angry?"

"He wants to send me abroad to go to university, I don't want to go." Han Xun pulled down the scarf and said casually, "I'll run away from home just like you."

Yu Qi's face burned for a while, and he couldn't refute, so he said sullenly, "Why don't you go?"

Han Xun glanced at Yu Qi, smiled and sighed in a low voice: "You are really a fool." Yu Qi was still in a daze, not understanding what he meant, Han Xun walked him forward, changed the subject and said: "Just now I heard you say Lu Yuan, who is it? Why do you recognize brothers everywhere, there are three or four brothers of yours on this street, right?"

"No! Brother Lu Yuan belongs to my brother..." Yu Qi couldn't speak for a long time, feeling that none of the words were quite right. Said boyfriend was getting married soon, and fiance seemed too formal, so he said vaguely, "The two of them are getting married."

"Oh, that's him. What does he look like, do you have a picture?"

"Yes, yes..." Yu Qi flipped through his phone, and Han Xun came up early, hanging it on his shoulder and sticking it to his face to watch. He had never seen him so active before, and Yu Qi wondered, "You don't care?" Is it about my brother?"

"I just want to see if Brother Lin Xun's taste is..."

Han Xun's eyes stopped at the photo that Yu Qi dug out, and Yu Qi was still trying to enlarge the photo. After leaving Xiaoduchuan that day, he followed Han Xun to the nearby video game city. He came out halfway to buy a bottle of water. I couldn't remember the way for a while, so I took a photo of the street.

It took him a long time to realize that the person standing under the streetlight at that time was Lu Yuan.

In the brightly lit street, he is only a corner of the screen, but he is still conspicuous. He is wearing headphones, as if he is waiting for someone.I didn't turn on the sound and flash when I took pictures, but I was noticed.He smiled at himself through the crowd, and Yu Qi felt a little guilty for no reason.

Han Xun looked away from the screen, slowly relaxed his stiff hands, and continued with his usual indifference.

"...terrible."

Lin Xun coughed again and cleared his throat, but his throat was still a little dry.These days, the heater is turned on fully, and there are still signs of a cold.He reached for a brown tie above his head, looked around, and it was better to have a solid color.

"It's gray."

Lin Xun followed the sound and looked over. Han Zheng was standing at the other end of the display rack, wearing a turtleneck sweater and a black coat, with a scarf on his hand.It was also after Yu Qi went to Zhangzhou University that Lin Xun knew that Han Zheng had been a professor at Zhangzhou University these years.He walked up to him, picked up a gray tie and handed it to him: "This one suits you better."

Lin Xun didn't answer, looked away and said, "I didn't buy it for myself."

In the past, Han Zheng didn't talk much, and he always read books by himself. If he went out with him, it would be either a bookstore or a library, which was as boring as himself.He originally thought that he was putting on airs as an uncle in front of him, but later he found out that he had this temperament, even if he called him Brother Han Zheng.

At that time, I was joking, saying that he was so bored, and I was afraid that he would become an old pedant in the future.Han Zheng wasn't angry either, he just closed the book and handed it to him, saying that the world inside is simpler than the outside world, if you don't understand it now, you will understand it later.

At that time, he felt that he was perfunctory. Adults always think that they know more than children. Every time there is something, the most they can say is that you will understand when you grow up.But Han Zheng didn't perfunctory him, what he told him was the truth.

But truth and lies, like right or wrong, are not that important.

"Are you going to get married?" Han Zheng glanced at the ring on Lin Xun's hand, "It must be the person who called last time."

"Ah."

"congratulations."

"Thank you."

Lin Xun stood there, silent for a while and said, "No class today?"

Han Zheng looked at Lin Xun and was a little surprised when he heard him asking himself, but he quickly smiled and said, "No. The weather is fine, so let's go out for a walk."

"It's cold."

"It's snowing soon, so it's a bit cold." Han Zheng paused, still holding the tie in his hand, and didn't put it back, "You saw Han Xun."

"I see," Lin Xun said slowly, the atmosphere became less tense, and his shoulders relaxed, "He's not the same as you at all."

"I also... have no experience, and I didn't manage him well." Han Zheng smiled helplessly, "If he offended you at that time, I apologize for him."

"No, he's fine."

Lin Xun didn't have much to say. His teenage days seemed like yesterday. In a blink of an eye, he had a child who was about to grow up, and he was about to get married.He glanced at the cash register and said, "I'm going to check out."

Han Zheng took off the brown tie one step ahead of him: "I'll do it."

"no need."

"Your wedding, you probably don't want me to be there." Han Zheng held the tie, looked at him and said, "Count it as my wedding gift to you, just pretend that I have been there." Han Zheng saw that he was still hesitating , smiled and said: "Let me be your elder for the last time."

Because of what happened back then, Lin Xun has been avoiding all the people related to the Han family. As for Han Zheng, he has avoided it the farthest.But in fact, in that situation, even if he could see Han Zheng, Han Zheng was willing to help him, so what could he ask Han Lin for him?

Taking it apart, in this matter, Han Zheng was equally involuntary and powerless.

Lin Xun let go, and replied softly.

After leaving the store, Lin Xun took the shopping bag in Han Zheng's hand, but found two ties inside.

"Is that one for Uncle Yu?" Han Zheng smiled, "If you don't like the gray one, just throw it away before you go home." Han Zheng walked to the escalator, Lin Xun looked at the tie in his hand, looked up stop him.

"Brother." Lin Xun looked at Han Zheng who had turned his head back. The moment he spoke, the ice blocked in his blood vessels finally melted away, and the bitterness no longer hurt so much, "Thank you."

Han Zheng nodded with him, turned around and went up the escalator.It was almost three o'clock, and it was almost time for me to go back.The heat from the shopping mall made his cheeks feel hot, and he remembered that he had forgotten to take off his scarf.

Lizhi has been having diarrhea for the past two days. Lu Yuan took him to see a doctor, but he doesn't know what's going on now.Lin Xun was lowering his head to dial the phone when he was bumped by a person suddenly.He barely stopped, but the little girl fell down at his feet.Lin Xun quickly helped her up: "Are you all right?"

Guan Nian looked at the large ice cream mark on Lin Xun's coat, wiped it off with his sleeve, and said apologetically, "Uncle, I'm sorry I made your clothes dirty."

Lin Xun only noticed the implanted hearing aid beside her beret after listening to her unclear pronunciation.Lin Xun looked down at the clothes, shook his head with a smile, half-kneeled on the ground and signed with her in sign language: "The clothes don't matter, as long as you are not injured. Where are your parents?"

Guan Nian looked at him in surprise, and said in sign language: "I'm fine, I came with my mother." Her eyes lit up, she stood on tiptoe and waved behind Lin Xun with a smile: "Mom! I'm here !"

"Guan Nian, why are you running around? I didn't ask you to..."

Fu Rui was so angry that he yelled with his name and surname. He looked like a little angel, but he was still a little devil at bottom.In the cold weather, he still pestered him to eat ice cream, and he said sweet words one after another.He managed to hold on to it with great difficulty, she held his hand with her small face up, and blinked aggrievedly, then he was done thinking, gritted his teeth and took out his wallet and said, buy, buy, buy for you!

But when he turned around after paying the bill, the person who was standing next to Xiao Mo just now disappeared.Fu Rui was in a hurry, he glanced around but couldn't see where she was, and all the people who rushed to her were Guan Shan's sudden disappearance at that time, so anxious that his hands and feet felt cold.

No wonder Zhou Wan went crazy, if Guan Nian disappeared, he couldn't bear it at all.

Fu Rui stopped, and Lin Xun slowly stood up a few steps away from him.Fu Rui looked at him silently, countless emotions erupted like a volcano, and then scattered like ashes.He stopped moving forward, as if there was a scourge a few steps away.

He stood on the spot and stretched out his hand towards Guan Nian, and said in a cold voice, "Nian Nian, come to my side."
