Raising a Family [Rebirth]

A trace of surprise appeared in Wen Rui's heart. It was the first time he saw a child staying on the balcony for so long. He just wanted to take out his mobile phone to turn on the light, but he felt that it was inappropriate. After hesitating for a while, he leaned over the railing and squatted down to ask in a low voice. : "Why don't you go to bed so late?" After speaking, he glanced at Jiang Hao's bedroom vigilantly.

Jiang Yueting didn't turn on the light in the bedroom. He sat in the darkness leaning on the railing with his knees hugged, staring fixedly into the distance without saying a word.

Wen Rui frowned: "You..."

Jiang Yueting gave him a very strange feeling. He didn't know if it was because the child had a mature temperament, or because he had seen the other person's appearance as an adult. Sometimes he would unconsciously treat Jiang Yueting as an adult.

"Jiang Hao is not at home tonight." Jiang Yueting's indifferent voice suddenly sounded, and Wen Rui was startled.

Jiang Hao?The kid called his father's name directly?

"What exactly do you want to do?" Jiang Yueting turned to look at him.Although he was in the dark and couldn't see the child's expression clearly at the moment, Wen Rui could still feel a falcon-like gaze staring at him closely.

Wen Rui was a little uncomfortable: "I, I..." He hesitated for a long time but couldn't tell why, that's right, what exactly does he want to do, help the child?But now that the truth is so close to him, he is actually afraid to know. If he really asks Jiang Hao for his abuse of this child, what can he do?

Announce Jiang Hao's domestic violence?Let him be ruined?Then what?Jiang Hao can't survive here, he can move or change his residence, what should he do if the abuse of the child becomes worse?And him?Can he guarantee that Jiang Hao will not retaliate against him?He is unfamiliar with the place and has just arrived. If he is "taken care of" by Jiang Hao, his fate will be unimaginable. At that time, he will not even be able to save himself. How can he help this child?

This question turned over in his mind many times, and finally it was ignored. Now that Jiang Yueting asked him, he still didn't know the answer.

Wen Rui took a deep breath, a feeling of powerlessness spread all over his limbs, making him feel weak, forget it, he is a person stuck in the quagmire, and he is still trying to make a living, how can he be the savior of others?A capable person is qualified to be a hero, but he only has a flood of compassion, which is useless to others except to make him feel how miserable others are.

Wen Rui looked back at Jiang Yueting, and finally smiled wryly: "Nothing." At least, he knew that the child would still be alive ten years later, but he didn't know if he could be called alive...

He stood up and went back to take out the box of skewers, "I have some skewers here, do you want to eat them?"

Jiang Yueting stared at the box fixedly, and refused to pick it up for a long time.

"Alms?" He turned his face away coldly, "I don't want it."

Wen Rui pulled the corner of his mouth helplessly: "How old are you? Seven, seven? Or eight? Why do you feel so old-fashioned?"

Feeling Jiang Yueting's fierce glaring at him, Wen Rui just pretended not to know that no matter how fierce a child is, he is still a child, and he can still deal with it.

He opened the box self-consciously: "Don't think too much, the main reason is that I can't eat too many skewers, so I can't waste it. It's still hot, eat it quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold." He took a With a small handle, he handed the rest of the box to Jiang Yueting.

The child looked at him, restrained the thorns on his body, and took the box.

"Thank you." Jiang Yueting was not used to saying these two words, and every time he said them, he said them very bluntly.

Wen Rui accompanied the child to eat supper, and the two of them didn't say a word. Jiang Yueting ate the meat skewers very slowly, and he didn't devour them like noodles.

Wen Rui was not used to seeing the two people in the dark, and said, "Wait a minute." There is no need to be afraid when the left and right Jiang Hao are not around. He checked the functions in the phone and found the flashlight.

The whole balcony lit up in an instant, and Jiang Yueting was also exposed to the light. The moment he saw Jiang Yueting, Wen Rui was stunned. Jiang Yueting had already taken a shower and changed clothes. This time he didn't wear long clothes and trousers, but Wearing a black short-sleeved shirt and a pair of shorts underneath, his white and immature arms were intact, without any trace of abuse.

How... how could this happen?Wen Rui is really confused...

Sensing his gaze, Jiang Yueting shrank his arms subconsciously. He stood up abruptly and looked at Wen Rui steadfastly. His eyes were as cold as a sharp knife out of its sheath, sharp and sharp, making people afraid to approach.

Wen Rui asked blankly: "Has your father ever beaten you? Or abused you? He won't give you food..."

Jiang Yueting interrupted him: "He has never refused to give me food." After speaking, he turned and went back to the room.

The bed curtain in Jiang Yueting's bedroom was drawn tightly, and Wen Rui couldn't see what was going on inside. He sat down on the ground in a daze, and looked down at the box in his hand. Was the other party really suffering from domestic violence?

He remembered what his aunt had said, and then recalled the child's vigilance towards him, and buried his face in his knees in pain...

Wen Rui sat on the balcony for a long time, and finally saw the box that the child had left on the balcony. He was afraid that Jiang Hao would notice, so he struggled to get the box back.

He took a deep look at Jiang Yueting's bedroom, he couldn't help others, no amount of sympathy was useless...

He went back to his room and took a shower, set the alarm on his mobile phone before going to bed, but found that Liu Mingyang called him twice, and sent a text message after seeing that he didn't answer.

Liu Mingyang: [Brother, you are really capable. You managed to provoke the relationship between Sister Li and Sister Wang on the first day, and you can still continue to work. ]

Wen Rui read this unclear sentence twice, and finally chose to delete it. He is not in the mood to joke with Liu Mingyang now.

-

Wen Rui got up very early the next day. He was flipping through his phone when he heard steady and tired footsteps outside the door. He walked quickly to the door and opened it.

Jiang Hao was picking out the keys at the door of his house, and was taken aback when he saw him suddenly appear. With a tired face, he frowned and asked, "Wen Rui? Why did you get up so early?"

Wen Rui lied and said: "I went out to sell breakfast. Mr. Jiang has gone out so early?" He didn't dare to reveal that he knew about his night shift, for fear of harming Jiang Yueting.

Jiang Hao stayed up all night, and now he has no good face: "Yesterday, a colleague had something to do and asked me to change shifts. I have been busy all night, and I just came back now."

"Then how did you go to the hospital yesterday? Did you take a taxi? I'm so sorry, I wouldn't have borrowed your car if I knew it earlier. By the way, I'll go get the car keys." After speaking, Jiang Hao turned and went back to the house without waiting for Jiang Hao to refuse.

A trace of impatience appeared on Jiang Hao's face, but he could only wait.

Wen Rui came out with the key, with a smile on his face: "I was there as a tutor for children yesterday until nine o'clock, thanks to Mr. Jiang for lending me the car, otherwise I wouldn't be able to come back so late .”

"Congratulations on finding a job," Jiang Hao was very sleepy at the moment, he didn't want to greet Wen Rui at all, so he continued to open the door after saying this.

Wen Rui said gently, "By the way, what grade is Mr. Jiang's son in? I have to go tomorrow, but I want to prepare in advance. I don't know if he has any books. Can you lend me a look?"

Jiang Hao paused, and he raised his eyes to Wen Rui, his eyes behind the lens showed an expression of unknown meaning.

Wen Rui looked at him with a smile, as if he had no other purpose but simply borrowed textbooks.
