Idiot

【Fool】

Mu Qingruan stared at the clock on the wall. He was alone, waiting quietly in the living room, watching the hands go round and round. The noodle soup I ate was all lumped together.

It seems that he won't be back today, Mu Qingruan looked away from the clock, picked up the chopsticks on the table, and ate the cold bowl of noodles.

The sound of the key opening the door was obvious, Mu Qingruan's eyes flashed with joy, he put down the bowl in his hand, and ran to the door to welcome the man back.

When Xiao Zhou saw Mu Qingruan standing at the door waiting for him to come home, he was not surprised, so he took off his coat and handed it to him, "Hang it up."

Mu Qingruan took Xiao Zhou's coat obediently, it still smelled of perfume, no need to guess, he knew where Xiao Zhou had gone.

"Aren't you hungry? I thought you wouldn't come back today, so I ate the noodles." Mu Qingruan hung up his clothes, and quickly cleared away the bowls on the table.

Xiao Zhou looked at the ball of noodles, which was still eaten in a mess, and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes.

"I'll cook it for you again." Mu Qingruan opened the refrigerator and took two eggs to make him a bowl of noodles, but Xiao Zhou refused.

"No need, go back to sleep." Xiao Zhou was a little irritable, his pretty brows were frowned, and he used sleeping as an excuse to go upstairs and slam the door behind him. In fact, every time he saw Mu Qingruan, he was in a bad mood.

Mu Qingruan's mouth, which was originally full of smiles, became more and more bitter, as if he was angry again, why should he be angry, and put the two eggs in his hand back into the refrigerator.

Mu Qingruan knows that he is an idiot, because Xiao Zhou always calls him an idiot, since junior high school, but he is not stupid at all, that is, he knows that he likes Xiao Zhou, very much.

When he was only 14 years old in junior high school, he met that genius, Xiao Zhou.

Mu Qingruan held the test paper that had just been handed out, the math test scored zero, and he handed in a blank paper. If an ordinary person got such a score in the test, he would definitely be beaten to death by his parents when he returned home, but Mu Qingruan was not afraid, because he was beaten I'm used to beating, besides, he doesn't have a mother,

He was sitting in the last row, and when he saw a crowd of people in front of him, he exclaimed. Mu Qingruan knew that the top student sitting in the front row must have scored full marks again, so he was not surprised.

Mu Qingruan leaned forward silently, seeing a bright [-] on the test paper, her eyes opened wide involuntarily.

"A zero score in the test again?" A pleasant voice came from Xiao Zhou's throat, and he chuckled lightly, "Bring the test paper."

Mu Qingruan obediently handed over the test paper, "Even if you teach me, I won't do it."

"No." Xiao Zhou opened the pencil case, took out a red pen, and added an extra 10 in front of the zero.

"Okay, let's copy it." Xiao Zhou handed him his test paper.

Mu Qingruan was a little confused about the result of the test paper, but returned to his seat and quietly copied the answer.

The next day, Mu Qingruan came to school with scars, red and purple palm prints on her white and tender face, and her round eyes were also swollen from crying, so pitiful.

Xiao Zhou came to school in a good mood, with a smile on his pretty face, and he was not surprised when he saw the injury on Mu Qingruan's face.

"Qingruan, what's wrong with this face." Xiao Zhou stretched out his hand, and touched Mu Qingruan's face, saying yes, but the force was so heavy that the stupid little man burst into tears from the pain.

"Why are you crying? Does it hurt?" With a concerned expression on his face, Mu Qingruan sobbed and nodded.

Xiao Zhou fought back, "I'm sorry, maybe I was too strong, and you were the one who hit the wound on my face."

"It's Dad." Mu Qingruan murmured, "Dad said I was an idiot and lied to him with the test paper."

In fact, Xiao Zhou knew very well that Xiao Zhou lived next to Mu Qingruan's house, and last night he heard Mu Qingruan's crying clearly.

"Blame me."

Seeing Xiao Zhou blaming himself, Mu Qingruan felt very sorry. This person is so gentle and kind, "Blame me, blame me for copying badly and my father found out. You are not wrong. I will copy better next time."

And next time?Xiao Zhou was almost amused by the idiot in front of him, and there was a flash of interest in his eyes, "Okay, we must copy carefully next time."

Mu Qingruan started looking for him every day, chatting about childish issues, he was so stupid, how could he see that Xiao Zhou was impatient.

Xiao Zhou looks like a good student, but his nature is very bad. Even the gangsters outside will be afraid of him. This man who fights like a madman, the so-called good student is just for others to see.

The first time he saw Mu Qingruan, he knew it was the little idiot who lived next door to him, white and clean, with round eyes, like a soft sheep, clean things made Xiao Zhou want to crush him hard, Perverted thoughts began to flow out slowly.

Every time after the exam, Xiao Zhou would copy the test papers for him. No matter how good Mu Qingruan copied and how serious he was, he would be beaten when he returned home. Be nice to him.

The little fool often showed up with injuries, and Xiao Zhou also went up to take care of him knowingly.

For the next three years, a fool followed behind him.

This is also something Xiao Zhou regrets. If he knew that this idiot was so obsessive, he shouldn't have played with him in the first place. If Xueba is followed by an idiot, he will be pointed at by others.

On the surface, Xiao Zhou was followed by Mu Qingruan for three years, but he was extremely irritable in his heart. Later, he finally went to high school. He thought he could get rid of Mu Qingruan, but he didn't expect that on the first day of high school, that People are still following him.

The anger accumulated for three years erupted in an instant, Xiao Zhou kicked Mu Qingruan's abdomen, with a hideous expression on his face.

Mu Qingruan was kicked and fell to the ground, shed tears in pain, covering the painful place in fear, "Why did you hit me?"

Xiao Zhou pulled the man up, the veins on the back of his hand seemed to burst out, before Mu Qingruan could react, he was dragged to the corner and punched and kicked.

"No, don't hit me. I was wrong." Mu Qingruan hid in the corner while begging for mercy. He didn't know where he was wrong, but he kept saying that I was wrong, hoping to relieve the pain on his body.

Xiao Zhou was angry for a long time, and when he had had enough, he shook his blood-stained fist, "Don't fucking follow me from now on!"

Mu Qingruan hugged his head, he was trembling with the pain on his body, the corner of his mouth was broken, and even the inside of his mouth was bleeding. Mu Qingruan didn't know why such a gentle genius became so cruel.

Mu Qingruan endured the pain and got up from the ground, and went to school anyway, maybe Xiao Zhou was just in a bad mood today.

When he arrived at the door of the classroom, he saw Xiao Zhou when he looked inside. Obviously Xiao Zhou also saw him, so scared that he could only stand obediently outside the classroom, like a student who was punished.

"Why are you standing here? You were late on the first day of class and you were still fighting." The female teacher saw the man standing outside the teacher, and saw that the clothes were so messy and bruised, so she decided without even asking. Liao Mu Qingruan is a bad boy.

"Come in, there is still a seat next to Xiao Zhou, go and sit down for class." The female teacher pointed to the seat next to Xiao Zhou, signaling Mu Qingruan to sit.

"Thank you teacher." Mu Qingruan was both happy and scared, and when he saw Xiao Zhou's expression, he was scared like an ostrich.

Sitting next to Xiao Zhou tentatively, he obviously saw Xiao Zhou move the stool, hoping to stay away from him.

"Xiao Zhou." Mu Qingruan softly called his name, but he glanced at him coldly.

Finally, when class was over, Xiao Zhou pulled him up impatiently and walked into the toilet, "Mu Qingruan, let me tell you clearly that I have never regarded you as a friend, can you stalk me to death. "

Mu Qingruan's eyes turned red instantly, "But you treated me very well at that time, you are the only one who doesn't despise me as a fool."

"I hate it, and it's disgusting." Xiao Zhou also said directly, "I was just playing with you in junior high school. Who knew that you were so annoying. It was really bad luck for eight lifetimes to recruit you. If you follow Don't blame me for being rude to you."

"Xiao Zhou." Mu Qingruan's voice was filled with tears, and he kept tugging on Xiao Zhou's cuff and refused to let it go.

"Idiot." Xiao Zhou shook off that hand, and what he said completely hurt Mu Qingruan's heart.

High school is the time when love begins, almost everyone has a crush, even Xiao Zhou is no exception, Xiao Zhou is very good-looking, there are many people who like him, and he can receive several love letters in a day.

Xiao Zhou fell in love with Ning Feier, Hua Ning Fei'er in Class B, that weak girl, that girl has a pair of big round eyes, Xiao Zhou just fell in love with these eyes, as if she could talk.

Mu Qingruan secretly followed Xiao Zhou, why didn't he know that he was very kind to the girl in class B, and then he saw Ning Fei'er kiss Xiao Zhou quietly on the face, and ran away blushing, Xiao Zhou touched Looking at the place where she was kissed, the smile on the corner of her mouth couldn't be more pampered.

When Mu Qingruan came back to his senses, he found that he was crying, and the pain in his chest was severe. If he kissed Xiao Zhou, Xiao Zhou would also like him.

Mu Qingruan thought like that, looked at Xiao Zhou who was sitting next to him and was serious in class, and slowly approached, knowing that two lips were stuck to the corners of Xiao Zhou's mouth.

boom--

In front of the whole group, Mu Qingruan was knocked to the ground, and immediately after, Xiao Zhou kicked him one by one.

"Death homosexuality." Xiao Zhou was merciless. If he hadn't been stopped by his classmates, Mu Qingruan would have felt that he would have beaten him to death that day.

Mu Qingruan wiped away tears and waited quietly for the punishment, but he didn't expect his father to come, and he was directly expelled from school. His name, Mu Qingruan, was remembered by all of them.

Mu Qingruan is just a disgusting homosexual.

"Father." Knowing his father's anger, Mu Qingruan knelt on the ground, sobbing while hugging his father's leg.

"Dad, why am I such a fool."

Xiao Zhou fell in love, his grades were good and he grew up well. Everything went smoothly. Mu Qingruan didn't study, so he could only stay at home, obediently waiting for his father to come home every day. Later, he waited and waited for the news of his father's death.

His father committed suicide and threw himself into the river when he came back from the construction site, but he left money for Mu Qingruan, not much, but he could support him until he was eighteen.

In the empty house, Mu Qingruan was the only one who kept calling Dad.

When my father was still there, he liked to drink, and after drinking, he liked to beat him, blaming him for killing his mother, but in return he was a fool.

"Dad, Dad, don't want me, come back, don't leave me alone, I don't want money, I want Dad." Mu Qingruan hugged the pillow where his father had been lying on, crying hoarsely.

Mu Qingruan became an orphan, and he was pointed out as soon as he went out. Not only was he gay, but he also violated his parents. When he was surrounded by a group of gangsters in the corner and forced him to hand over the money, no one helped him, but he saw Xiao Zhou watched helplessly as he was beaten half to death.

Mu Qingruan foolishly grabbed his hair, passed by Xiao Zhou, walked forward with empty eyes, Xiao Zhou also saw that something was wrong with him, saw him go to the river his father threw into, and jumped without thinking go down.

"Cao!" Seeing Mu Qingruan committed suicide, Xiao Zhou immediately threw off his schoolbag and jumped into the river to save others. When he saw the boy with his eyes closed in the water, he had an indescribable feeling in his heart, and he pulled him into the water. water surface.

"I'm so stupid, you actually..." Xiao Zhou was about to scold Mu Qingruan severely, but found that he was pale and fainted in his arms.

Xiao Zhou took the man ashore, checked Mu Qingruan's breathing, and was relieved when he found that his breathing was normal.

After Mu Qingruan woke up, he found Xiao Zhou sitting beside his bed. He got up slowly, stretched out his hand and pinched himself, and found that it was pain, not a dream, so he hugged Xiao Zhou. .

Mu Qingruan returned to his room. He followed Xiao Zhou to this new city for five years. The man gradually became successful in his career, bought a house and a car, and started his own company. Who doesn't like someone who is handsome and wealthy, Xiao Zhou has also brought women home, and he has personally seen two people sticking together on the sofa.

"Xiao Zhou, I like you." With red eyes, Mu Qing lay on the bed, huddling herself into a ball, trying not to make herself feel more uncomfortable.

The next day, Mu Qingruan still habitually went to Xiao Zhou's room to see if anyone had left, but the result was still the same as usual, the quilt on the bed was a mess, and the person had already left.

Mu Qingruan stepped forward to spread the quilt, and paused for a while in Xiao Zhou's room, all he could smell was tobacco, Xiao Zhou's smell.

In the past five years, Mu Qingruan has been living a repetitive life, getting up, and waiting, waiting for Xiao Zhou to come back. Every time Xiao Zhou comes back, he can always see a bowl of cold noodles on the table, with Xiao Zhou can't even eat a poached egg.

This bowl of noodles that was getting cold became Mu Qingruan's dinner.

Sixteen hours is a long time. Mu Qingruan stared at the pointer on the wall and counted silently. When the pointer pointed to 10 o'clock, Mu Qingruan stood up and went to the kitchen. It took 10 minutes to cook a bowl of noodles. On the surface, there is a poached egg.

Usually Xiao Zhou would come back at 10:30, so Mu Qingruan also deducted time to wait for him.

When the key was inserted into the keyhole, Mu Qingruan happily went to open the door, and obediently prepared a pair of slippers. Anyone who didn't know would think that Mu Qingruan looked like a watchdog.

In fact, Xiao Zhou also thinks so, he has a dog at home.

Looking at the noodles on the table, Xiao Zhou felt a little sick to his stomach. The noodles that were repeated every day had been on his dinner table for five years. Even if he didn't eat them, he would get tired of looking at them.

"Xiao Zhou, the noodles are still warm, eat." Mu Qingruan looked at Xiao Zhou expectantly.

Xiao Zhou shook his head, "I have something to talk to you about."

"You, you eat first." Mu Qingruan pulled Xiao Zhou to sit down, and brought him a pair of chopsticks, "If you don't eat, it will be cold."

Xiao Zhou picked up the chopsticks for the first time. Although he didn't want to eat it very much, he was really hungry. He picked up the poached egg with the chopsticks and took a bite. It changed immediately, and this bowl of noodles was not salted, so it was hard to swallow.

Xiao Zhou put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, "I'm full, let's talk."

Mu Qingruan nodded, for some reason, she had a bad premonition in her heart.

"I'm getting married."

For a moment, Mu Qingruan felt so blocked in her heart that she couldn't speak. She was stupid and knew what marriage meant. Xiao Zhou would have his own wife and children. Xiao Zhou no longer needed him. It should be said that Xiao Zhou never He is not needed.

"It's not good for us to go on like this. We will be misunderstood by my fiancee if we live together, so you'd better move out."

Seeing that Mu Qingruan couldn't say a word, Xiao Zhou continued.

"I know, you don't have any money, I bought you a house outside, and I will give you a sum of money, enough money for you to live for the rest of your life."

"I don't want it." Mu Qingruan raised her head slightly, "I want to be with you forever."

What kind of nonsense was he talking about? Xiao Zhou already expected that Mu Qingruan would not listen to people's words. He really wanted to beat this fool up and pester him.

"Don't get married, okay? Don't let me move away. I only have you. I don't want to go." Mu Qingruan shed tears, but these tears did not arouse Xiao Zhou's pity at all. valuable.

Xiao Zhou ignored Mu Qingruan's pleading, he had expected that he would be so stalking, exactly the same as seven years ago.

"Whatever you want, move out for me within this month."

Seeing Xiao Zhou pick up the car key and go out, Mu Qingruan cried even harder, he couldn't chase him out, he didn't have the key to this house, once he went out, he couldn't get in again, he hadn't been out in the past five years , Every time I waited quietly at home.

Xiao Zhou left again, Mu Qingruan looked at the bowl of leftover noodles, picked up chopsticks and started eating.

"Xiao Zhou, I like you."

Xiao Zhou didn't go home for more than a week, and Mu Qingruan guarded the door for several days.

When Xiao Zhou came back and saw Mu Qingruan sitting at the door, staring at him with red eyes, he was not surprised, he knew that this fool was still at his house.

Mu Qingruan was about to jump up and hug Xiao Zhou, but saw a woman following Xiao Zhou. The woman was very beautiful. Mu Qingruan looked at Xiao Zhou's hand holding the woman's hand tightly.

This is Xiao Zhou's fiancée, Mu Qingruan stood aside and did not dare to speak, seeing Xiao Zhou lead the woman upstairs, her heart ached.

Mu Qingruan was stupid to begin with, with a childlike disposition, rushed upstairs and knocked hard on the door of Xiao Zhou's room.

It was the woman who came to open the door, Mu Qingruan pulled the woman, trying to pull her out, and kept shouting, "Don't marry Xiao Zhou."

"What are you doing!" Xiao Zhou was disgusted by this kind of entanglement. Seeing Mu Qingruan being so unreasonable, he directly dragged him and walked downstairs. In the middle, Mu Qingruan struggled non-stop, and Xiao Zhou was also very irritable. Let go and let him fall.

Mu Qingruan's foot was broken, and he couldn't cry out in pain. Xiao Zhou dragged him to the door and threw him out.

Only then did Mu Qingruan realize what she had done wrong, she got up and hugged Xiao Zhou's leg, crying, "No, don't drive me away, Xiao Zhou, I only have you, I was wrong, I was wrong."

Xiao Zhou's eyes looked like he was looking at a mouse crossing the street, and he kicked Mu Qingruan away, "I shouldn't have saved you when you jumped into the river, I should have let you die."

"I like you." Mu Qingruan knelt on the ground with the most humble voice, "I like you."

"Disgusting." Xiao Zhou slammed the door, throwing away a fool who depended on him for a living.

"Xiao Zhou! Xiao Zhou, open the door, don't throw me away, I dare not." Mu Qingruan cried, knelt on the ground and knocked on the door vigorously. The sound insulation effect of the house is very good, and Mu Qingruan's heartbreaking Lung cries, only a little can be heard inside.

"Is this okay?" The woman walked down the stairs, looking at the cruel man in front of her, Xiao Zhou's expression did not change when the people outside were crying like this.

Xiao Zhou glanced at the woman coldly, his eyes were not as gentle as before in front of Mu Qingruan, "You only need to do your part with money, and leave when the fool outside the door leaves. "

"I understand." The woman closed her mouth, feeling a little pity for Mu Qingruan in her heart.

The man didn't want to get married at all, he just wanted to find an excuse to drive him away.

The crying outside the door became smaller and smaller, Xiao Zhou knew that Mu Qingruan hadn't left at all, but was tired from crying, that idiot must be tired and hugged himself into a ball now, Xiao Zhou thought so, secretly from the cat's eyes Look, sure enough, Mu Qingruan hugged his knees and sobbed, Xiao Zhou resisted the urge to open the door for a moment.

Gradually, it got dark and the temperature began to drop. Mu Qingruan was shivering from the cold wind, sneezed several times, and her right foot was swollen badly.

After waiting for so long, Xiao Zhou never opened the door, thinking, Mu Qingruan began to cry softly again.

Xiao Zhou was very upset, as long as he didn't open the door, he would be able to get rid of this idiot. Regardless of his life or death, he got up and walked to Mu Qingruan's room, throwing all Mu Qingruan's few clothes into the luggage in the box.

See the door open.Enduring the pain, Mu Qingruan got up, saw Xiao Zhou holding the suitcase, and immediately guessed it.

"I won't make trouble anymore. You marry her. I really don't want to make trouble. As long as you don't drive me away, I only have you, Xiao Zhou." Mu Qingruan's round eyes were red and swollen from crying, and her face was swollen. An abnormal blush appears.

"Stop pestering me. These seven years, I've had enough of you. Since junior high school, I've been pointed at by someone for following a fool behind me. Don't let me continue to embarrass myself!" Xiao Zhou threw the suitcase Next to Mu Qingruan, close the door.

Mu Qingruan was not knocking on the door, nor was she begging, picked up the box that Xiao Zhou had thrown aside, and walked away step by step from the place he hadn't left in five years. Xiao Zhou just said that he was following him It's embarrassing to be around, it's right to think about it, who would want to be with a fool, Mu Qingruan choked up, wiped the tears from his face, and then he realized that Xiao Zhou's unhappiness was caused by himself, every time he was very sad Don't go home less, because you don't want to see yourself.

"How stupid am I?"

Mu Qingruan fell ill. He hadn't been sick for a long time, so he just passed out on the side of the road. A kind person took him to the hospital. His high fever was very serious, even reaching 42 degrees. He was supposed to be hospitalized , but Mu Qingruan didn't have any money, so he could only rely on the money padded by kind people to hang up the bottle.

Mu Qingruan was dizzy and had a dream. He dreamed that he was back in junior high school. At that time, he didn't look at Xiao Zhou's score out of curiosity, and Xiao Zhou didn't help him change his score. He didn't pester him. Watching Xiao Zhou, Xiao Zhou... was not ridiculed, he was still that idiot, Xiao Zhou was still that admirable genius.

In the end, the kind-hearted man dug out the money from Mu Qingruan's suitcase, and Mu Qingruan was hospitalized, but became a real fool.

"Permanent brain damage?" The person who sent Mu Qingruan to the hospital looked at the person on the hospital bed with some pity.

"Yes. His current IQ may have returned to that of five or six years old, and permanent brain damage cannot be cured."

"Thank you doctor." No matter how good the man was, he couldn't be good enough to take a fool home to raise him. He took a look at Mu Qingruan and left directly.

Mu Qingruan was sent out by the hospital, standing alone on the street, her mind was blank, how to go home.

This strange place made him tremble with fear, "I want to go home, I want to go home."

Mu Qingruan opened his eyes wide, crying like a child, big tears fell down, he thought he was crying, and someone took him home.

"Wuuuuuuu." Mu Qingruan was like a child who couldn't find a home. After thinking about it, he found that he didn't even know what his own home was like, and even forgot his own name.

"Is he a fool?" Gradually someone's voice sounded in the crowd.

Fool?Mu Qingruan feels familiar.

"Can't you find a home?" The middle-aged uncle stepped forward and patted Mu Qingruan on the shoulder, "I can take you home."

"I want to go home, uncle will take me home." Mu Qingruan tugged at the uncle's sleeve, please.

A look of success flashed across the uncle's eyes, "You really are a fool."

Mu Qingruan followed the uncle all the way, "Uncle, where is my home?"

"Heh." The uncle brought Mu Qingruan to a dark basement, "This is your home."

"Tell you to abduct a child, why did you abduct me a high school student?" There were not only the two of them in the basement, there were actually other people.

"You don't know, he is an idiot, an idiot is easy to use, he doesn't waste money, see if his foot is sloped, just break it, turn him into a real cripple, worth several children." The uncle looked at Mu Qing Soft right foot.

Mu Qingruan couldn't understand what they were saying, "Uncle, this place is so scary, it's not home, it's not home."

"Liu Cheng, come here and kick your feet." The uncle pointed to Mu Qingruan's right foot, "Be neater."

"Okay." The man named Liu Cheng kicked Mu Qingruan down, and when Mu Qingruan was in pain and wanted to get up, there was a sharp pain in his right foot.

"Ahhh——." Mu Qingruan wanted to stretch her foot back, but was dragged back by Liu Cheng, stomping hard on her ankle, and didn't stop until she heard the sound of bones splitting.

Mu Qing rolled all over the floor in pain, screaming in pain.

"From now on, you are a beggar. If you don't get back five hundred yuan a day, just wait to be beaten." Liu Cheng inserted a piece of iron into Mu Qingruan's arm, " If you dare to run, I will break your limbs!"

Mu Qingruan cried, "Don't hit me, I'm obedient, I'm obedient."

"Hey, what a fool." Liu Cheng laughed cruelly.

Mu Qingruan was taken to other cities by them, not to mention whether he could get five hundred yuan a day, even one hundred yuan was difficult. On the first day, Mu Qingruan handed over all the money he raised to them, in exchange for a He was beaten so badly that he didn't even have to eat. Day after day, he was beaten and hungry every day. He didn't dare to run, and his limbs would be broken if he ran. He learned to rummage in the trash can For food, you can usually find the bones that have been dumped in many restaurants, and the meat that many customers have not finished eating. If you find meat, Mu Qingruan will be happy for a long time.

Thus, he has a name, called a fool.

After Mu Qingruan left, Xiao Zhou felt a lot more relaxed. He didn't have to see a bowl of noodles on the table every day when he went home, and he didn't have to see that annoying face.

"I like you."

Xiao Zhou remembered what Mu Qingruan said when he left, damn it, why can't he forget it, Xiao Zhou shook his head irritably.

Time passed by little by little, Xiao Zhou thought that Mu Qingruan would not be able to bear it, and would come back in a few days to continue pestering him, but no.

Inexplicably, Xiao Zhou felt a little disappointed. Sometimes, he would leave the door open, but Xiao Zhou would not admit that he was afraid that Mu Qingruan would not be able to get in after he came back.

Xiao Zhou waited every day for more than half a month, but the door hadn't been opened. Every time he went home, he couldn't see a bowl of noodles on the table, or Mu Qingruan squatting on the ground, obediently taking Take out a pair of slippers and set them up.

"Mu Qingruan." Xiao Zhou opened the room where Mu Qingruan lived before, and found that nothing was left, and he had already thrown his things out.

Xiao Zhou realized more and more that something was wrong with him. Sitting on Mu Qingruan's bed, what lingered in his mind was Mu Qingruan.

He saw words engraved on the wood at the corner of Mu Qingruan's bed, "Xiao Zhou, I like you".

Xiao Zhou felt a sharp pain in his heart, took out his mobile phone and called Mu Qingruan, "I miss you Mu Qingruan, I miss you."

"Sorry, the user you dialed is down, sorry..."

Xiao Zhou tried again and again, but found that it was in a shutdown state. After going out, he searched everywhere he could, but there was nothing.

Xiao Zhou became more and more panicked, so he hired someone to look for him.

The final result was the surveillance video of that kind passerby and Mu Qingruan being taken away.

"Permanent brain damage...".Xiao Zhou read it over and over again, Mu Qingruan was kicked out by himself, injured and developed a high fever, causing his thinking to be only five or six years old, and now he is taken away!

Xiao Zhou directly called the police and hired many people to look for him. In the video, Mu Qingruan disappeared in an alley and never appeared again.

"Don't let anything happen, Mu Qingruan." Xiao Zhou's hands were trembling.

After searching for half a year, there was no trace of results. He couldn't find Mu Qingruan. Every time he received the news, he claimed the corpse. He lifted the white cloth tremblingly. When he saw the unrecognizable face, he almost shed tears. He still had hope, Xiao Zhou got up and left.

Every night, Xiao Zhou would lie down in Mu Qingruan's room and fall asleep. He touched the words on the edge of the bed, and felt extremely heartbroken. Why did he drive people away in the first place?Xiao Zhou asked himself repeatedly, and slapped himself repeatedly, but it was useless, the person had disappeared.

In Xiao Zhou's dream, it was all about Mu Qingruan begging him and crying that night. It must have hurt him when he fell down the stairs.

"Mu Qingruan, come back, I'll tell you if I like you or not."

Xiao Zhou's voice sounded in Mu Qingruan's room.

"Boss, I seem to have found him. There are [-]% resemblance. I want you to come and recognize him in person." When Xiao Zhou received the call in the middle of the night, he immediately got out of bed and drove directly from city A to city B. It took seven hours. There was no delay in the journey.

Xiao Zhou was not happy to receive this call first, he knew that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, and when he saw it, he would know.

"Where is the person?" Xiao Zhou got out of the car and asked the person who called him, "Where is he?"

"You'll find out later, I'm not sure it's him, but it's very similar to the one in the photo." Wang Kai kept staring at the crowd, "Here we come."

Xiao Zhou followed Wang Kai's line of sight, and suddenly opened his eyes wide.

Mu Qingruan knelt aside, holding a broken bowl in his hand, begging passers-by to give him some money, Mu Qingruan is very different from half a year ago, his hair has grown a lot, he is thinner, only Skinny and bony, but those round eyes have never changed.

"It's him." Xiao Zhou said slowly, and walked towards the kneeling man, he watched Mu Qingruan hold the bowl and stretched out his hand, when someone threw money into the bowl, he kowtowed to the man, Mouth full of thanks.

Mu Qingruan was holding the bowl, but was accidentally knocked off by a passerby, and the money in the bowl rolled out one after another, Mu Qingruan exclaimed, and hurried over to pick it up.

When Mu Qingruan was still concentrating on picking up the money on the ground, he grabbed his wrist with one hand, and put all the money he dropped into his palm.

"Thank you." Mu Qingruan thanked him, and saw the man's face clearly, he looked really good-looking.

Mu Qingruan put the money back into the bowl, only to find that the man had been staring at him.

Mu Qingruan scratched her cheeks, picked up the bowl, looked at Xiao Zhou with round eyes, "Brother, please give me some money."

Xiao Zhou squatted down, reached out and stroked the dirty face in front of him, "I found you, Qingruan."

Mu Qingruan saw that the kind-hearted elder brother was full of tears, put down the bowl, and wiped Xiao Zhou's tears with the same dirty hands, but the more they wiped, the more dirty they became.

"Qingruan, let's go home."

"Brother." Mu Qingruan looked at the brother who was behaving strangely, "I'm not Qingruan, I'm a fool."

Xiao Zhou looked at Mu Qingruan with heartache, "You are not stupid, come home with me Qingruan, I beg you."

"No, go home with brother, go home with brother, idiot will be beaten." Mu Qingruan shook her head, picked up the bowl, got up and wanted to leave.

When Xiao Zhou saw Mu Qingruan's feet, he gasped for breath, his foot... broke.

Xiao Zhou picked up Mu Qingruan and stuffed him into the car regardless of his struggle, but his movements were extremely gentle.

"I can't go! I will be beaten and broken." Mu Qingruan burst into tears instantly, her eyes were full of fear, if she ran away, her limbs would be broken.

"Be good, don't cry, no one will dare to hit you anymore." Xiao Zhou hugged Mu Qingruan tightly, not thinking that his body was covered with stains.

"Drive, go to City A." Xiao Zhou said to Wang Kai in the driver's seat, "Go to the hospital in City A first."

Wang Kai nodded in response, and drove directly to City A without delay.

In the car, Mu Qingruan was crying all the time, and Xiao Zhou's heart ached when he was crying.

"You can't go, a fool can't go."

Xiao Zhou gently coaxed the person in his arms, "Tell brother why you can't leave."

Mu Qingruan cried and took two breaths, "Idiot, you will be beaten, your bones will be broken, it hurts."

"Don't cry, brother protects you, brother won't let anyone bully you again, don't be afraid." Xiao Zhou hugged the lost and recovered person in his arms. The person in his arms had lost too much weight. Wherever he touched it, it was almost full of bones. There are also wounds.

During the seven-hour journey, Mu Qingruan was already tired and fell asleep in Xiao Zhou's arms. Wang Kai drove steadily, and stopped safely at the gate of the hospital in City A, "Boss, we're here."

Xiao Zhou carried the sleeping man in his arms out of the car slowly, fearing that he would wake him up, so he went gently into the hospital.

When Mu Qingruan woke up, he found that the nurse was cleaning him, and his dirty body exuded a smell of disinfectant, revealing the original skin.

When Xiao Zhou saw the countless scars and new wounds on Mu Qingruan's body, he wished he could kill his tormentor immediately, adding new wounds before the old wounds healed, how much pain he must have had.

Mu Qingruan was given a comprehensive examination, and finally the attending doctor took the medical case, "Seriously malnourished, many bones in his body have been cracked, and the bones in his right foot were forcibly broken and can be reattached. But it is unavoidable that he will have a slope foot in the future, and there is a problem with his brain. There is a foreign object in his arm, and surgery should be performed to remove it as soon as possible."

"Thank you doctor." Xiao Zhou thanked, looking at Mu Qingruan lying on the hospital bed, "Please arrange for an early operation.

Mu Qingruan watched the sky gradually darken, his eyes were full of fear, Xiao Zhou noticed it, and immediately hugged the trembling Qingruan, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."

"It's dark, it's dark, I don't have money, I will fight."

Xiao Zhou knew what Mu Qingruan was talking about, and said distressedly, "Why did they beat you?"

"There is no five hundred, no food, and you will be beaten with a whip." Mu Qingruan couldn't connect a sentence, but said the main point.

"If you don't have five hundred a day, will they beat you with a whip?"

"
