Boiling point

He Xin has been busy for three days in a row. Apart from the funeral, he also has to deal with the talkative media that keep popping up. He has a plan for the inheritance, but it is more difficult to implement than imagined. Fortunately, Wu Rui's father is a lawyer. , can help him a little bit, so that he won't be faced with a pile of files that are so big that he can't start.

In this family, no one wants to be seen, and being alone and helpless is not the most difficult thing. He Xin grew up under people's colored glasses, and he doesn't care about Tan Ze and all the weird relatives' eyes. He feels annoying and tired What makes me feel deeply tired is that after a person dies, the things that the living have to deal with range from equity allocation to dealing with unknown guests, which is tedious and exhausting.He is no more than a child, no matter how big his heart is, he can't match those who have been in the society. He can neither use force nor show weakness to deal with these people, so he has to keep a cold face all day long When I came down, I didn’t think about anything, listen or watch, occasionally thinking that it would be nice if Li Yanqi was here, he is much more mature than himself, at this time he is by my side, and everything can be discussed, but he quickly rejected this idea, he He didn't want Li Yanqi to see him in such a mess, and he didn't want him to be involved in this shit and couldn't get out.

I had no choice but to cheer myself up, while smoking a cigarette, thinking about Li Yanqi and Little Milk Bubble, thinking about my classmates and friends far away in Nanxi, thinking about him here and Wu Rui's help, in fact, I can get through it after a while, it's not a big deal.On the first day, he couldn't sleep at all. At night, he had a terrible headache and stared blankly until dawn. In the next few days, he would mix sleeping pills that he hadn't used for a long time into the wine. Because of the dual effects of alcohol and drugs, he could barely fall asleep. , I was still exhausted when I got up, and I continued to fight wits and courage with others.

Wu Rui came back from his relative's house and got him a mobile phone when he got home. Seeing He Xin's appearance, he didn't say a word for a long time.

His voice became hoarse when he spoke again, "Have you never eaten?"

He Xin touched her face, "Have you lost weight?"

"Bullshit." Wu Rui stared, "You were already thin, but after going to Nanxi, you managed to put on some weight, and you're fucking back to before liberation."

With a smile, He Xin took the phone and put the SIM card in it. After turning on the phone, she took a photo of the screen, "Fortunately, I don't think there is any difference, he is still handsome."

Wu Rui glanced at him, sighed silently and said, "My dad told me that the documents for your inheritance have been drawn up?"

"Yeah." He Xin nodded, "What do you think?"

"What's the matter, I think you're just a fool." Wu Rui turned around in a circle in anger, "I want this house and you don't need a penny. Do you think you are stupid?"

He Xin was amused by him, then stared at the sky for a while and said, "First, He Wenbo is not worthy of being my father, and I also don't want to be his son. When I left, I ran away without hesitation. If he hadn’t met this incident, I might never come back in my life, let alone support obligations. Maybe one day he gets old and sick, and the company collapses, so I want to work with him. It is not me who is facing failure, but Tan Ze, so I should not take these inheritances. I have already prepared myself to have nothing to do with them. Second, this house is for my mother, that is The joint property of their marriage can also be regarded as exclusive memories. She is a crazy woman, she can live in the hospital now, but the hospital cannot live for a lifetime. She will be discharged from the hospital. Where can she go? This is where she lives. For most of my life, even if I face the cold walls more often, it is still a shelter from the wind and rain, and I can call it home.” He Xin smiled softly, “Anyway, this is what I can do. The last thing I do for her, I hope your father can help more."

Wu Rui didn't know how to evaluate He Xin's actions, it sounded reasonable, and he also admired the other party's courage and courage, but he always felt unhappy, as if he had wronged his brother.

"Don't think too much of me." He Xin smoked a cigarette and narrowed her eyes, "I have inherited the common shortcomings of both of them, selfishness."

Wu Rui looked back at him puzzled.

"As long as I have a little friendship, I will not let go of everything here so easily. I will fight Tan Ze to the end." He Xin closed her eyes, "It is precisely because they want to divide the relationship completely. Boundary, I... I will no longer be the son of He Wenbo, nor Zhou Ying's son, and I will no longer have anything to do with the plants and trees here, and they will have nothing to do with me in the future, I don't I will come to worship, not to visit, I will start a new life, no matter where I am, I can find the reason to go on and find the meaning of my existence."

Wu Rui kept his mouth wide open and didn't move for a long time, then he was choked by the wind, coughed violently, and said while coughing, "Fuck...you don't look like the one I know He Xin, did you fucking go to Nanxi Temple to consecrate it?"

He Xin laughed, "I was transformed by a little brother named Tata."

"What the hell?" Wu Rui looked at him in a daze.

He Xin didn't say anything else, put the phone in his pocket, stood still, Wu Rui stared at his profile for a long time, then rushed over and hugged him hard, his throat felt sore.

"Without parents, you still have brothers and me. No matter where you are, the Wu Xiaohou hotline is waiting for you to call at any time."

He Xin pushed his elbow against his back and hugged him hard.

After getting off the plane, Li Yanqi was a little dizzy staring at the cars coming and going. The traffic routes in big cities are much more complicated than Nanxi. In addition, he wrote a review outline for the two girls that night, which is equivalent to a day. I didn't sleep, my brain can't keep up with the rhythm at the moment.

Before he came, he searched for the address that Brother Qiu had sent him. The place was in the northern suburbs, far from the airport, and he had to transfer after taking the subway.It has just snowed in Bincheng, and today is a thawing day. It is colder than usual, and the biting wind blows very quickly. Li Yanqi couldn't get a taxi outside. When he was shivering from the cold, a car stopped in front of him. Brother Qiu, who was smoking a cigarette, rolled down the car window and waved to him, "I just passed by the airport, I'll take you there."

Li Yanqi happily said thank you, nodded and got in, the heater in the car was turned on very high, and it took him a long time to bring back a little rationality from his numb brain.

"You don't know that Bincheng is very cold, and you wear so little?" Brother Qiu honked his horn and overtook a car impatiently.

Li Yanqi's nose was red from the cold, "If I go back to Nanxi to change clothes and come back again, it will take another day or two."

Brother Qiu laughed loudly, "You young people are crazy."

Li Yanqi turned his head to look at him, "Isn't it crazy?"

Brother Qiu narrowed his eyes thoughtfully, "It's pretty good, who hasn't been young yet."

Li Yanqi followed suit with a smile, bowed his head and sneezed.

Brother Qiu looked at his watch, and turned the fan of the air conditioner towards Li Yanqi, "It will take an hour at the fastest to drive to the northern suburbs, you should sleep for a while, or you will fall ill before you see anyone. That's too worthless, your family, He Xin, don't feel sorry for her."

Li Yanqi pondered over the words "Your He Xin", suddenly felt a little embarrassed, turned his head and closed his eyes, and took a break.

He didn't fall asleep along the way, and when he closed his eyes and opened them again, looking at the completely unfamiliar street, he would also feel incredible, that he came here without any preparation?That doesn't look like him who has a retreat for everything.

Li Yanqi smiled with emotion, and suddenly felt very relaxed all over, and it felt good to do something desperately and cut off all the retreats behind him.

"It's here. Go in and have a look. It should be easy to find. Whichever villa has the most people is his home." Brother Qiu smiled at him, "I wish you success in finding your little boyfriend."

"Cough...thank you." Li Yanqi wrapped the scarf tightly, "Brother Qiu, thank you."

"Hey, you are too polite, you can't compare with He Xin." Qiu Ge closed the car window, "Okay, I'm leaving, you can call me if you need anything."

Li Yanqi waved at him, turned around and walked into the community, the security probably saw too many people, and asked when he saw Li Yanqi, "A guest at the He family's funeral?"

Li Yanqi nodded quickly.

The security guard pointed impatiently, and Li Yanqi could roughly tell that the direction was north, and just about to ask a few more questions, the other party had already slammed the window shut.

Li Yanqi had no choice but to follow his intuition all the way forward. There was a fork in the north, and the garden separated the two different directions on the left and right. Only then did he find He Xin's house.

There was no one standing at the door, but a few pieces of white cloth were hung on the tree, and there was a strong smell of sesame oil, which made Li Yanqi sure that he had found the right place. He knocked on the door a few times, and it took a long time for someone to come out to open the door, not He Xin is a young man with yellow hair.

"Who are you looking for?"

Li Yanqi said, "Is He Xin there?"

"Congratulations to your mother's Xin." The man snorted as if he had been stabbed out of thin air, and immediately knocked on the door.

Li Yanqi's face was ashamed, he frowned and coughed, checked the house number and the wreath at the door again, went up and knocked on the door again, the door was still opened by that person, he said unhappily with a cigarette in his mouth, "Are you fucking finished?"

"I'm He Xin's friend." Li Yanqi said, "I have something to do with him."

Tan Ze seemed to have heard a funny joke, and laughed with his eyes wide open, "He Xin actually has other friends besides Wu Rui?"

"Isn't it possible?" Li Yanqi's voice turned cold, thinking that it's none of your business, but he suppressed his anger and said, "Please, I'll find He Xin."

"What are you looking for with He Xin?" Another voice came from behind.

Li Yanqi turned around and saw a tall and thin boy looking at him. The two of them looked at each other for three seconds and found that they looked familiar. Finally, they recalled the person He Xin had described to him.

He froze for a while and said at the same time, "Wu Rui?"

"Li Yanqi?"

Li Yanqi was the first to come back to his senses, and nodded to him with a smile. Wu Rui went "ah" for a long time before he slapped his thigh and went to He Xin's room to take out what he wanted, and sighed in disbelief, " Fuck, you're such a dude, I didn't expect you to come over."

Li Yanqi smiled without any explanation, and asked directly, "Where is He Xin now?"

Wu Rui thought for a while, then stepped forward and handed him the things in his hand and said, "I'm in the hospital, I just donated blood, it's a long story."

Li Yanqi glanced at the gadget in his hand, raised his head and asked, "Donate blood?"

He Xin went to the hospital in the morning to visit Tan Ze's mother. Before, he always thought she was a mistress, so he hated her so much. It wasn't until this car accident that he realized that the relationship between the three of them was a circle. His father If he loves her, she will naturally dominate the family. If his father doesn't love his mother, his mother should pack up and leave as far away as possible.

A woman who depends on a man to live is so sad, and there is really nothing she can do about it.

He Xin is determined to make a clean break with this place and leave frankly. His mother's mistakes are not within his scope of responsibility, but he can at least atone for her sins, and it will be a final farewell gift.

His blood type is the same as that of Tan Ze's mother, which is a relatively rare blood type. At that time, the blood bank of the hospital was in urgent need. In the past two days, he has not been able to find a matching blood type. Procrastinating and procrastinating will be detrimental to the subsequent treatment, and there is a 70.00% possibility of becoming a vegetable.

He Xin thought about it all night and thought through all the pros and cons before finally deciding to donate blood.

When Li Yanqi came to the hospital by car, he happened to meet several media blocking the door. Wu Rui said that it was He Xin who paid him to interview him.The two of them had a brief breath before they came, and Li Yanqi had a general understanding of the situation here. He felt sorry for He Xin very much, and was also surprised that he could do this.

"I really don't understand." Wu Rui said, "Don't He Xin bother the media the most? Why are you doing this?"

Li Yanqi lowered his head and smiled, "He's doing what he thinks is right."

"What's the matter? I found that you can understand it just by looking at it?" Wu Rui touched his nose with a puzzled expression.

"Ning...... Cough, although He Xin doesn't look like a delicate person, sometimes he thinks about problems comprehensively, and he never does things in vain. When he finds the media, the first They will magnify this matter. Tan Ze's mother was rescued by He Xin. It won't be long before the employees of He Xin's father's company and people in the upper-class circles will know that these after-dinner conversations will also be given to Tan Ze invisibly. The pressure, getting the ownership of the house, he has more confidence. Second, because He Xin saved Tan Ze's mother, the two of them will see it for the sake of this matter and the pressure of public opinion. What about her mother, do you understand that you can kill two birds with one stone?"

Wu Rui was stunned for a while, then shook his head.

Li Yanqi just wanted to explain to him again, when he found that two reporters next to him quickly blocked the elevator entrance, and He Xin came out wearing a mask.

He was six steps away from him, not too far away. Li Yanqi could clearly see his side face and slightly pale smile, but he was standing straight all the time, wearing a black suit in front of the camera, with a firm gaze.

Very handsome, very handsome.

Just looking at the silhouette is enough to make people's heart flutter.

A few minutes later, the crowd dispersed. He Xin covered her arms, leaned against the wall and smiled in relief, then turned and walked into the elevator.

After Li Yanqi waited for the elevator to go up slowly, he walked to the door and took a look, then quickly turned into the corridor beside him.

The twelfth floor of the hospital is the top floor, and further up is the rooftop. After He Xin had his blood drawn, he went to the doctor. He said that his mother is watching the stars on the rooftop, accompanied by a nurse.

The sound of He Xin's footsteps startled the dozing nurse, she opened her mouth to speak, but He Xin shook her head at her, motioning her to leave first.

His mother was sitting in a wheelchair, her long hair was casually draped over her shoulders, and she looked up quietly.

He Xin was not as brave as he thought, and would still be afraid when he walked to his mother's side, but he was just stunned for a moment, and then walked forward again.

"Hey." Her mother suddenly said, and turned her head to look at him and stretched out his hand to grab it.

He Xin felt that her eyes did not fall on him.

"Look how beautiful the stars are in the sky," said her mother.

He Xin didn't speak, and stood beside her.

"Let me tell you, the brightest one is named He Wenbo, and its surname is He. Is your surname He?"

His mother stared at him again, and it took her a long time to laugh, but there was no emotion in her eyes.

"Do you know why he turned into a star?" his mother hissed, burying her head in her elbows and raising her eyes with tears. "He's dead, he's dead!"

"It's ridiculous, he died before me hahahahahaha." His mother's laughter was harsh, He Xin clenched her fists tightly and took a step back.

"Are you afraid of me?" She was still laughing, hoarse, mixed with tears.

He Xin exhaled, and suddenly stepped forward to hold her wheelchair, squatted down and looked straight at her.

"I'm not afraid of you." He Xin said, "I'm not afraid of you anymore."

His mother raised her head and looked at him, her eyes were dead. He Xin's fingers holding the wheelchair turned white, and he sighed softly, "I really want to say goodbye to you this time."

The other party was full of confusion, and another line of tears flowed down his distorted face.

"I won that home for you. You can live there in the future, grandparents can come and live there, and there are nurses." He Xin lowered her eyes and said silently for a while, "I want to move forward, and I want to break free from the situation you gave me. My shackles are gone, and nothing can restrain me in the future. Although you can't see it, and he can't see it, I still want to say something in front of you, He Xin is very good now, you don't love him. ..." He Xin's voice became hoarse, he bit his lower lip hard, and turned his head away, "It's your... loss."

His mother lowered her head as if she was thinking, and it took a long time before she said, "I don't want He Xin, I only want He Wenbo, I only want him."

He Xin smiled, stood up and let out a long breath of relief.

"Well, thank you for not wanting him."

The woman cried again without warning, and the screams attracted the nurse. When she forced her mother to leave, He Xin walked up to her and said, "There are no stars tonight."

"Yes!" His mother cried loudly, "He Wenbo turned into a star and looked at me!"

He Xin said, "Don't you know who that star is looking at?"

His mother yelled like crazy, and turned to hit him. He Xin was whipped twice by her, but she didn't dodge. She just stared into her eyes and said word by word, "If you can't hear me, I have to say, If you don't move forward, you will never see the stars in your life."

His mother leaned back, her hair covered her face, but tears were still falling silently. He Xin watched her being pushed away, and shouted to their backs, "Goodbye, Mom."

No one paid attention to him, his mother didn't even know that he was here today, He Xin raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, took out a cigarette and leaned against the wall, the pinhole on his arm was accidentally injured by her, now it hurts It was throbbing in pain.

I was very tired and didn't want to talk, but I felt a little better in my heart.

After an unknown amount of time, He Xin heard the phone buzzing in his pocket, so he picked it up to answer it.

"Hey."

There was only a very light breathing sound, and it took a long time before he opened his mouth to feed.

He Xin's throat choked, her voice trembled, "You..."

Li Yanqi asked, "What are you doing?"

He Xin didn't speak, but lowered her head and thumped the wall hard.

Li Yanqi said to himself, "Have you eaten? What did you eat? How is the weather today? Is it cold?"

He Xin still didn't answer, her breathing gradually became heavy.

"It's snowing here, not too much, but it's so cold."

A sheet of snow fell on He Xin's palm, and he wiped off the wetness from his fingertips. Hearing Li Yanqi's voice, he couldn't take it anymore, "Have you returned to Nanxi? I ​​want to see you."

"I'm not in Nanxi." Li Yanqi paused and said, "But you can see me soon."

He Xin closed her eyes lightly, "When is your flight? I'll pick you up at the airport tomorrow... Tomorrow night, that's it. I'll buy you a ticket right away, just wait. ..." He Xin said as she turned her head away, the expression on her face changed three times from blank to shocked to joy.

Li Yanqi held He Xin's bubble blower in his hand, stood three meters away from him, smiled and inserted the tube into the soapy water, and blew a big bubble at him.

"Once upon a time there was a child whose family was very poor and couldn't afford to buy toys. One day he picked up a bubble blower from the ground. He was very happy and thought it was the most fun thing in the world. But at that time he didn't I know, there is also a child in the north far away from him. His family is very rich. It is strange that he has no toys. He likes playing marbles, building blocks, making popsicles, and blowing bubbles, but these He didn’t have anything, until one day he secretly bought a bubble blower with his pocket money. He was so precious, he kept it in a small box, and he would be beaten when he played at home, so he wanted to see it. , many years later, he left home, and came back because of some coincidence, and found that the small box was still there, but the bubble machine could not be used. He still thought so, even if it was just a glance, he Asked his good friend to bring it to him, and then this bubble machine was snatched by another child halfway, and he swore that I am the best at repairing bubble machines." Li Yanqi blew at him again. A series of bubbles, "Hey, am I good?"

He Xin took a deep breath and tried to stabilize her emotions, but her mind was in a mess, mixed with some kind of hot emotion in her chest, as if it was about to boil.

The bubble machine that Li Yanqi was holding broke a corner, but the few bubbles that were blown out were spinning in the air, floating with the snowflakes, very beautiful.

"Can it still work?" He Xin asked hoarsely after a long time.

"Yeah." Li Yanqi said.

He Xin stared at him for a while, then dropped the cigarette in his hand, "Why?"

Li Yanqi shook the soapy water inside and said, "Soapy water and air dissolve together to form..."

He Xin walked up to him and interrupted, "Why are you looking for me?"

Li Yanqi lowered his head and smiled, and didn't speak for a long time. He Xin looked at him and was about to speak when the other party took a step forward and held his cold hand, then opened his arms and said, "I miss you."

It's not that I know your situation and I'm worried about you, it's not that I'm afraid that you won't be able to bear such a blow alone, it's not that I think you want someone to accompany you after hearing the news, it's not, but I miss you, there is no sympathy or pity , I came here just because I missed you.

He Xin really wanted to open her arms to hug him, feel the warmth of his touch, and wrap her whole body in his familiar smell.

But he didn't move, and the bubbles were still flying around with the snowflakes. He Xin touched the swollen eye sockets and touched the tears on his face.

He seldom cries, and he hardly shows weakness. He didn't cry when he sent his father away, and he didn't cry when he said goodbye to his mother. Crying, he always thought that he would not cry, at least when he saw Li Yanqi again, he must be smiling.

"Fuck." He Xin lowered her head and wiped her tears with her sleeve, then turned around, "Don't look at me."

But he was so big, no matter how he arched his body, Li Yanqi still saw the tears sliding down his chin with the back of his hand against the tip of his nose.

He sighed very distressed, and hugged him from behind.

"It's okay, there is no one else here now, only me, whether you want to cry or curse, vent everything out, don't hold back."

He Xin's crying turned from suppressing her throat to whimpering, and finally let out a low growl.

Li Yanqi's hand patted him on the back, He Xin turned around and hugged him tightly, rubbing his chin against his collar, Li Yanqi touched the back of his prickly head and said, "You Working hard to move forward, I see."

He Xin buried himself on his shoulder and sobbed, and immediately grabbed his hand. Li Yanqi felt sour in his heart, and when he looked up at him, his eyes were also red. He held the glutinous rice cake in one hand and put the tube to his mouth with the other, smiling. Blowing a bubble at him, "New Year's gift, I bought your glutinous rice cake."

He Xin said in a crying voice, "Is it sweet?"

Before Li Yanqi could answer, he leaned over to blow out the bubbles around the other party's mouth, tilted his head and kissed his lips.

He made a big move, and Li Yanqi was hit by him against the wall behind him. He Xin raised his head blankly when he heard a bang, Li Yanqi rubbed his waist and hissed, and both of them panted slightly.

"I kissed you."

It was still such a familiar line of dialogue, Li Yanqi couldn't help but think of that night, he wanted to laugh a little.

He Xin opened his mouth, and when he was about to say something more, Li Yanqi hooked his neck forward and pressed him down, without giving him any time to react, not giving him a chance to speak, not even The temptation didn't stop, and he kissed again directly and domineeringly. He Xin was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and sucked the other's lips, and poked the tip of his tongue in majesticly. Li Yanqi snorted, and held He Xin's lips tightly with both hands clothing.

This is a blind spot, they pushed each other to chase a kiss, opened their arms as if they were fighting, and hugged each other fiercely in the cold wind.

They are embracing a love with an unknown future, but everyone is very brave.
