Occupied

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the dampness unique to the south is becoming more and more obvious in this old house in a small alley.

Especially in the middle of the night when there is heavy frost and dew.

It hurts, it really hurts.

His whole body seemed to be roasted by fire and cut by a knife. Even though Ah Ci subconsciously knew that he should have fallen asleep, he still frowned in pain.

But Ah Chu couldn't fall asleep, and watched quietly from the side, occasionally wiping Ah Ci's sweat.

Painkiller injections are not a good thing, and the dosage is limited. Ah Chubi, who has studied medicine for many years, knows it well, so he can only watch Ah Ci sweating in pain, and he can't even sleep peacefully.

A person is always at his most vulnerable when he is asleep.

Only at this time, Ah Ci would subconsciously grunt in pain, but would immediately bite his lower lip tightly, as if unwilling to make more noise.Ah Chu felt a deep sourness spread in his heart.

Wiping the sweat from the headache on Ah Ci's forehead, Ah Chu leaned over and kissed Ah Ci's eyebrows, Ah Ci's cheeks, and Ah Ci's lips.

I don't know if this kind of action is comforting Ah Ci, or comforting myself, "It's okay, it's okay, I'll get through it, it'll be fine."

"Big brother..."

Ah Chu was taken aback for a moment, and when he heard Ah Ci calling him, he backed away immediately, thinking that Ah Ci had been disturbed by him.

But after waiting carefully for a while, I found that Ah Ci still had his eyes closed. He didn't wake up, but murmured in his restless sleep.

Ah Chu felt relieved, and continued to wipe Ah Ci's sweat.

"Big Brother... Big Brother..."

"I'm here."

Ah Chu didn't know what to do with Ah Ci who looked so fragile. If he could, he wished he could hold him in his palm and put him in his heart, but he could only watch Ah Ci in pain calmly from the sidelines.

This is the greatest helplessness in Ah Chu's life.

"Don't talk about my elder brother, what qualifications do you have?"

A sudden whisper rang in Ah Chu's ears, but a soft sound hit Ah Chu's heart like a whip.

"Big brother..."

Ah Chu clenched his fists, controlling himself not to overwhelm his reason because of the surging anger.

Ah Ci didn't say anything, pretended everything was okay, and everything went with Ah Chu, but in fact, his heart... was more bitter than anyone else.

Ah Chu was prepared, knowing that Ah Ci would definitely leave scars in his heart because of this incident, but when Ah Ci whispered in his sleep and blurred dreams, he still couldn't help feeling like a knife piercing his heart.

After suffering so much, the one who still wants to protect him is his Ah Ci.

he really...

Not a good brother, let alone a qualified lover, he left his true love covered in bruises.

The night wind blew through the half-opened window, and it was a bit cold, Ah Chu got up to close the window as if avoiding the sadness in his heart.The coolness blowing in the wind made Ah Ci wake up from his uneasy light sleep, his whole body was in burning pain, and in the dark night, he was lying on the bed alone, in a daze, he thought he was alone, and he was not awake yet The person who came over suddenly sobbed tremblingly, suppressed his voice, sobbed and sobbed in a low, vague way, so desperately trying to suppress himself, but he couldn't help but still leaked a little fragility.

Ah Chu's hand holding the window lattice froze there. He stood in a corner of the darkness, out of Ah Ci's field of vision, but so unintentionally and so clearly heard Ah Ci's sobbing, and expressed despair sobbing.

Aji...he really cared.

Feeling the pain of suffocation in his heart, Ah Chu stood stiffly on the spot without moving, it was too painful.

He had never experienced Ah Ci's pain before, he couldn't really empathize with it, but this time...he really felt what it was like to be hopeless.

Even though he smiled and said it was okay, even if he calmly said that the wheelchair is fine, but in fact there was so much helplessness and despair accumulated in his heart.

Ah Chu suddenly remembered the night when he thought they could not escape, Ah Ci smiled tremblingly and said to throw me away...

The sense of desperation that he didn't care about made him panic and couldn't help himself. He could only use strong methods to force Ah Ci to stop thinking about it. In fact...

It's just that he didn't dare to think about it.

What should he do?What should he do to make Ah Ci better.

In such a desolate, moonless night, in the bottomless darkness, Ah Chu stood dumbfounded, letting those painful and helpless whimpers tear him apart inch by inch without hesitation and mercilessly. Heartbroken.

I don't know how long it took, but the suppressed whimpering gradually subsided and seemed to stop.

Ah Chu's stiff body moved slowly, but he still didn't dare to move. At this moment, he didn't know how to tell Ah Ci that he was in this room. If Ah Ci was such a strong person, if he knew he is……

Will it be...

Ah Chu was worried about gains and losses, so he felt a little cranky.

Suddenly, there was the sound of something rolling down on the ground in the silent night, and the clear snap brought Ah Chu back to his senses.

In the darkness, Ah Ci's vague figure was bending over on the edge of the bed. Maybe he accidentally knocked off the teacup on the bedside table, so he tried hard to pick it up by himself.

Ah Chu immediately stepped over, grabbed Ah Ci's hand that was struggling to grope for the teacup on the floor with one hand, and stabilized Ah Ci's body, then reached out and touched for a while, picked up the teacup that had rolled down at the foot of the bed and put it back .

Ah Ci's hand paused for a moment, it felt a little cold when it was held by Ah Chu.

The trembling transmitted over clearly made Ah Chu feel the shock and bewilderment of Ah Ci.

But Ah Ci didn't speak, so Ah Chu didn't open his mouth, and didn't care about the puddle of water that was knocked over on the floor. He sat on the edge of the bed and silently opened his arms and half embraced Ah Ci's body. He hugged her tightly.

He couldn't say any comforting words, so he could only fill up Ah Ci's slight pain with such a thin hug.He dropped a light kiss on Ah Ci's ear, floating his breath.

Aci leaned into his arms and let out a deep breath, with a thick nasal voice and a hoarse voice after crying.

He didn't speak either, just leaning quietly like this.

Fingers intertwined.

I don't know how he fell asleep again in the end, but when Ah Ci woke up again, he was leaning against Ah Chu's arms, and Ah Chu was sleeping behind him leaning against the bed board, and they were still interlocking their fingers.

There were all kinds of burning pains on his body, but when he was held in Ah Chu's arms, he felt warm, as if those pains could no longer exist.

Ah Ci moved a bit, trying to move his body so that Ah Chu could sleep more comfortably, but when he moved like this, the vigilant Ah Chu had already woken up, "Morning..."

Ah Chu leaned over sleepily and kissed Ah Ci's cheek.

Ah Ci stared blankly, stunned for a long time, "Morning..."

He is not used to such a thing as a sudden good morning kiss early in the morning.

Ah Chu stood up, tidied his clothes, and stretched again, "Hey, lie down for a while, I'll make you breakfast, and I'll fetch water for you to wash in a while."

Ah Ci nodded and watched Ah Chu go down the stairs.

He thought of the relatively silent hug last night. While he was aware of his fragility being peeped by Ah Chu, he also noticed that Ah Chu's hands were so stiff and trembling. For a moment, he felt sour, sad and unspeakable in his heart. Wronged.

Ah Ci didn't lie down again, he sat on the bed and looked out at the sky through the window of the small attic. In the brighter sky, the wintering migratory birds gradually disappeared from his eyes without stopping, and flew into the distance.

..........................................................................................

Although the Japanese army still did not relax the carpet search, two or three months have passed.

The Japanese army, which still had nothing to gain, was always a little more slack in their hearts, and most of them began to perfunctory after careful tracking.

Even though Misawa Liao repeatedly and anxiously demanded that Rongchu must be found and captured alive, the subordinates of the Japanese agency who had no clue and no clue could only express their helplessness time and time again.

So the teacups in the office of the chief of the Japanese agency changed batch after batch...

However, even though the search operations of the Japanese agencies became more and more slack, the days in the small stone alley gradually taught Ah Chu to hide.

He used to be blindly bold and cautious, but now he has learned to be cautious.

In order to take care of Ah Ci, and also for the sake of temporary stability, Ah Chu did not dare to leave the small stone alley too far even though he was disguised. As a result, some trivial things in life became a little difficult.

Such as firewood, rice, oil and salt, such as thick clothes and bedding that must be purchased for winter.

It's not that you can't buy it without money, but you don't dare to go too far to buy it.

Moreover, when Ah Si or Yue Chun came to deliver supplies, they were always concealed and concise, who would bring chicken, duck and fish to the hidden people?

It's not about visiting relatives and friends after the New Year's Eve.

So the big boss of Rongchu, who has never been troubled by the trivialities of life, is also a little bit troubled this time.

Originally, Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao left a small piece of private land in the small stone alley to grow some green onions, cucumbers and other vegetables, but the weather has entered winter, and vegetables such as cucumbers have gradually turned yellow, and they can no longer be eaten. , leaving some cabbage leaves to pestle, Ah Chu used those cabbage leaves to cook and eat in different ways every day.

But you don’t necessarily eat cabbage every day throughout the winter, right?Besides, Ah Ci is recovering, and children like Ah Fu also need to grow their bodies, which is a time when they need nutrition.

So Ah Chu could only go to the small alley every few days to buy some eggs from the aunt who raised the old hen at home, mix them well, add salt, mix some water, and make custard. To Alfred.

"Brother, why don't you eat it yourself?" Ah Ci frowned after seeing Ah Chu divide the custard into two halves again.

"I don't like food." Ah Chu brought the food to Ah Ci without blinking.

"Then I don't love you either." Ah Ci looked at him.

Ah Chu curled his lips and smiled, still looking like he wanted to discipline his younger brother, "That can't be done, because you have to recuperate."

Resolutely put the rice bowl in Ah Ci's hand, pointed to his nose, and said word by word, "Don't stop eating."

Ah Ci lowered his head and was silent for a while, then he still ate silently.

Ah Chu sat on one side and watched him eat, and on the other side, little Ah Fu was obediently holding the rice bowl. After they all finished eating, Ah Chu packed up the bowls and chopsticks and took them to the kitchen downstairs, where he sat on a small bench The last person ate his slightly cold fried cabbage and cabbage soup.

He suddenly wanted to laugh, it was such a crude meal, but there was a subtle sense of happiness in his heart like a family-caring man.

"Uncle Ah Chu, don't you want to change to other dishes?"

Ah Fu climbed onto the bench Ah Chu was sitting on with his calves, propped his head up, and the child who had eaten cabbage for more than a month showed a look of hatred against the cabbage.

"Not full?"

"Don't we have any money?" Ah Fu was indeed the first kid in the market to think of this reason.

"That's not true." Ah Chu hesitated whether to explain this problem to the child.

But before he could speak, the child yelled again, "Why don't you go out and buy vegetables if you have money?" Ah Fu stared, "Could it be that Uncle, you are the big boss and have never bought vegetables?"

It's true that he has never bought vegetables. Even if he did, the Rong family drove a car and took their servants to the big market to purchase. There is absolutely no experience of carrying a vegetable basket to a small vegetable market, but more importantly, he is afraid of revealing his identity. Bring danger here.

In the end, before Ah Chu could speak, Ah Fu screamed with contempt on his face, "You know how to buy vegetables! I will! Really, I can't buy vegetables when I grow up! You're so stupid!"

Ah Chu let out an "ah" and opened his mouth in shock. The cabbage that was still in his mouth fell to the table with a "clack". Dr. Rong Chu, an associate professor at the Royal College of the United Kingdom, was pointed at his head by an eight-year-old child and said: ,so stupid.

The so-called children from poor families headed the family early, and the rich were raised in the dignified Rong family. Of course Ah Chu, who was still a young master in name, would not understand.

As a result, the Ah Fu who ran out with the money the next day dragged a basket of vegetables, fruits and even ribs and fresh fish with great strength. It really made Ah Chu stare, and finally ended their more than a month Since then, I have lived a hard life with cabbage and rice every day.

Under Ah Chu's careful care, Ah Ci's recovery is not bad, and his complexion is getting better day by day.

He was still in a coma from time to time last week, but he has been able to stay awake most of the time these days.

But in this way, Ah Chu's troubles came again. In the past, he didn't have to worry so much. Except for treatment, Ah Ci just slept, but suddenly he saw him sitting up and leaning there, but he didn't know what was going on in his heart. This really made Ah Chu feel troubled.

His eyes are always a little dull, as if looking in one direction, he starts to lose his mind.

Ah Chu was very afraid of his wild thoughts, it was even worse than making him unconscious, the more desperate a person is, the easier it is to push himself to the deathbed.

It is not easy for this doctor to be sincere. Not only is it so small that the skin and flesh are so big that the internal organs must be taken care of, but even the spirit and heart must be firmly grasped in his hands.

No, as soon as the physical injury has been relieved, he is afraid that this silly brother will twitch, and he should not suffer from depression and anxiety.

"What do you think?"

Ah Chu prepared a bunch of items for changing dressings, put them on a rectangular medical tray and carried them to the bedside.

Really, he was quite obedient when he was asleep, and he could fiddle with it casually, but now he is not used to it when he wakes up.

He complained, while unpacking a roll of gauze, he took out a few pieces of alcohol cotton with tweezers.

If he went on any further, he, Doctor Rong, would soon become a little nurse Rong, disinfecting, giving injections and changing dressings all day long.

"No, I didn't think about anything..."

Seeing how his elder brother was about to change his dressing, Ah Ci obediently unbuttoned his clothes and let them fall to his shoulders. It was already cold and the house was a bit damp, so basically he was still lying under the quilt.

"You, you can see it in your eyes when you think about it."

Ah Chu gently wiped his arm with an alcohol cotton pad, gave him an anti-inflammatory injection as usual, and then began cleaning and applying medicine to the wounds one by one.

Those branded scars began to heal slowly. Thinking about the moment when they were rescued, there were blood and flesh everywhere. At that time, it would take a long time to clean up the blood stains.

Later, I saw that some wounds rolled pus and water, and the wounds all over the body had to be changed every two days, which was really not a small project.

Now the place that healed quickly has grown new skin, and it can also be touched lightly with hands, although it still looks a little shocking.

There is only one place, and it is a little serious.

After treating the wounds on his body very quickly, Ah Chu casually tore off Ah Ci's pants as if he had become a habit.

"Is it better?"

He pulled one of his legs away to check the most severely injured inner thigh. Before that, Ah Ci was always sleeping in a drowsy state, so Ah Chu did whatever he wanted.

Unexpectedly, there would be Ah Ci who came out like this, but today he was stunned, pulled his leg back hard, and looked at Ah Chu with embarrassment.

What's more serious is that he had been sleeping in a drowsy state before, and he didn't pay attention to a problem. He was wearing a pair of hospital pants with a rubber band waist that was convenient for treatment, and he didn't wear anything inside.

At this moment, Ah Chu took off the pair of trousers. Just now, Ah Chu's gaze was directed at his legs, so that he could not respond.

"how?"

Looking at him angrily and amusedly, Ah Chu ignored his dodge, lifted the quilt and grabbed his ankle again.

"I... I will do it myself."

Just when he caught it, Ah Ci shrank back like a small loach and slipped away.

"Come by yourself? You are a doctor and I am a doctor?"

Ah Chu started to show a disciplined expression again, as if catching some small animal, he reached out and grabbed Ah Ci's ankle that had no way out.

"I... I... will..."

Ah Ci's face was already flushed red, which made Ah Chu want to bully him even more.

"What's the matter with you? Did the tofu turn into loach today? Then you will slip away..."

As he spoke, he dragged his feet out, and Ah Ci moved his body out helplessly.

As soon as he heard that tofu drilled into loach, bah, loach drilled into tofu dish, he would feel that his mind was suddenly filled with something, and then many scenes would naturally arise.

Facing the face of Ah Chu in front of him, isn't that just a huge loach?She was shaking her head and tail at him!

"do not……"

Ah Ci also didn't understand, it wasn't like he had never been naked in front of him before, why did he become so coy.

"Split your legs, hurry up."

Ah Chu lifted off the quilt, and the scenery underneath was beautiful.

What he saw were two well-proportioned and slender legs, and Aci's two arms that were hanging down in front of his crotch quickly.

"puff……"

Unable to bear it, Ah Chu laughed out loud. He hadn't had such fun in a long time. It had been a long time since he had done this kind of teasing and bullying Ah Ci.

Seeing him unable to stop laughing, Ah Ci couldn't help pouted.

What big brother, I just thought it was not easy for him, but he is considerate, gentle and caring.

Now, all awards are withdrawn.

"Angry?"

Ah Chu secretly took a look at his awkwardness, and couldn't help but soften his heart again, and lovingly rubbed Ah Ci's hair with his hands.

Ah Ci still had an aggrieved face of being useless, and ignored him.

"Okay, you cover this, can you obediently let me take the medicine?"

Not wanting to bully him any longer, Ah Chu picked up the pair of pants and put them between his legs.

Silly Ah Ci, of course he knows, Ah Ci would be shy, if not, why tease him?

Ah Chu, who felt like he hadn't been so relaxed for a long time, really laughed heartily at this moment.

Then began to carefully apply the medicine to Ah Ci, gently and without any effort, Ah Ci was lying on his back, and from the corner of his eye, he would glance at him from time to time.

What I saw was Ah Chu still frowning and applying the medicine seriously, and I still felt the heat in my heart, although my legs were exposed in the air, I didn't feel cold.

This winter, perhaps his coldest in more than 20 years, lived in an unprecedented dilapidated house without luxurious beds or heating equipment.

But it was the most heart-warming winter he had lived for more than 20 years. All the loneliness in the past no longer existed. Day and night, Ah Chu was by his side to protect him.

Ah Ci is still easily moved, just thinking about it makes his nose ache.

"Big brother..."

"En?" Ah Chu was still concentrating on applying the medicine, and didn't notice anything unusual.

"Brother, I..."

"What am I? I didn't eat your tofu."

"I..." Ah Ci hesitated to speak, Ah Chu finally finished taking the medicine and looked up at him.

"thanks……"

He seemed to have seen a gleam in Ah Ci's eyes, but before he saw it clearly, Ah Ci had already turned his head away.

"fool."

Ah Chu smiled, and didn't insist on turning his head back. He knew that Ah Ci was stupid, and his heart was included in that thank you.

This was Ah Ci's sincere gratitude and touch, so he couldn't wish for it.

"Thank you for taking action!"

"En?" Ah Ci was surprised by his words and turned around.

As soon as he met Ah Chu's eyes, his sight was blocked. Ah Chu's lips had already leaned forward, asking him for a gift.

No more talking, the two embraced tightly, feeling each other's warmth in the cold winter night.

After more than three months, he finally got his wish again, and kissed Ah Ci, not secretly, but under mutual consent.

Just one kiss is enough for both of them.

The sound of firecrackers is eliminated every year, and the spring breeze brings warmth into Tusu.

Tonight is New Year's Eve, and Shanghai, which has been cold and rainy in winter, has snowflakes just in time. Although the weather is getting colder this day, it does not hinder people's mood of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, even under the shadow of war , The sound of firecrackers, and the noise of chaos also rang out this night as expected.

A year is finally going to pass, no matter how many things happened and how much pain you have experienced, it will eventually become a chapter with the end of the year, or gradually fade away in the corridor of time.

Ah Chu set up the chopsticks and called Ah Fu to come over for dinner.

The attic in the small stone alley is lit, dishes are served, and they are preparing to celebrate the New Year together.

The two brothers Ah Chu and Ah Ci have been together less often since they were born, and they have never even spent a good year together.

Now that I think about it, eating such a comforting meal, although normal, is indeed the happiest thing.

The dishes are very simple, a plate of scrambled eggs, a plate of vinegared fish fillets, a pot of chicken soup, a bowl of green vegetables and a stack of salted peanuts. However, in this era and in this place, these dishes are already the best, Ah Fu Excitedly eating with a bowl on the side.

Ah Chu poured wine into Ah Ci's bowl, "Eat more, there is still in the pot."

As he spoke, he gave Acibu vegetables in another bowl.

Ah Ci took a sip from the bowl. The wine was not good wine, but rice wine mixed with water from a wandering peddler outside the alley. Although it smelled like wine, it tasted sour.

But this wine was served by Ah Chu after it had been specially warmed, and this alone was better than fine nectar.

They drank wine and started chatting with the sound of firecrackers outside the window. Ah Ci was not talkative at all, but on such a day, he couldn't help but let Ah Chu's temper change from national affairs to childhood anecdotes, from the tension when we first met to the current heart. Cherish each other.

The two of them were chatting happily, and even Ah Fu couldn't help but started to say at the top of his voice that his parents would buy firecrackers during the Chinese New Year, so he lit it and secretly threw it behind Ah Gui. He was so frightened that he cried, and then he would inevitably be reprimanded by the adults.

As he spoke, the child's eyes turned red, and he suppressed his voice aggrieved.

Ah Ci was listening, and seeing this, he couldn't help feeling pity in his heart, but Ah Ci is not a person who can comfort children, he could only look up at Ah Chu, Ah Chu smiled softly, and stretched out his hand to caress Ah Fu "Good boy, uncle bought you firecrackers, do you want to go down and play with the children in the alley? I seem to hear them playing downstairs."

Seeing that Ah Chu took out the small firework sticks and small firecrackers like a magic trick, Ah Fu laughed foolishly with tears before he wiped away his tears.

Children are actually very simple, just such a small gift can make them feel very satisfied, even so satisfied that they can temporarily forget the saddest thing in their hearts.

"Uncle, eat slowly, I'm going down to play."

Little Ah Fu, who got the New Year's gift, couldn't wait to climb down from the chair, and ran downstairs holding the firework stick Ah Chu gave him, rubbing against the firecrackers.

"Hey, be safe!"

Seeing the child running away happily, Ah Ci couldn't help but exhort him.

It's a pity that Ah Fu had already run far away and didn't even hear him.

Unknowingly, between chatting and talking, the time is close to midnight, and the New Year will be in a while.

"Are you tired?"

Ah Chu had already cleared the table, put on two cups of tea, and sat down beside Ah Ci.

Sweet soup was still warming on the stove in the attic, which was prepared for Shou Sui.

"Not tired."

Ah Ci smiled embarrassedly and said, "Brother is the one who works harder, he is busy."

"No matter what the current situation is? This Chinese New Year is always a matter of priority."

Ah Chu blinked, "Ah Ci..."

"what?"

"I found that you have become whiter, and you were dark in the past." Ah Chu laughed.

Ah Ci's face froze for a moment, and it took him a while to realize that his elder brother was clearly molesting!

Ah Chu looked at Ah Ci's face, and asked amusedly, "Are you shy?"

Ah Ci looked away awkwardly, "No."

"Obviously shy." Ah Chu smiled.

"That's someone talking too stupidly!"

"Is there?" Ah Chu picked out his ears, "Why didn't I hear it?"

"Yes!" Ah Ci said.

"Who?"

"you!"

"The bastard said me?" Ah Chu continued to pick his ears.

"Yeah. The bastard is talking about you."

Ah Ci answered directly, and when he did, he found that Ah Chu was laughing, and then felt that he had been teased again, and pointed at Ah Chu unwillingly, "You're cheating again!" Ah Chu innocently shook his head.

At this time, when Ah Ci was about to say something more, the sound of firecrackers outside the house suddenly burst into loud crackling, like thunder, but it represented the joy of a new day.

Since the clock has just begun to strike twelve, the new year has arrived.

This atmosphere caused the two people who were bickering and frolicking to stop and looked at each other.

"Happy New Year, Ah Ci." Ah Chu put away the teasing expression just now, and said softly.

"Happy New Year, big brother." Ah Ci also smiled, a little shy.

In the new year, the first thing I saw was each other, Ah Chu felt a little moved, he couldn't help leaning over, and in the ringing of the bell, gently kissed Ah Ci's lips, opened his arms and embraced each other. Live, gave him the first hug of the new year, the first tenderness.

Ah Ci responded, nervous and cautious, but still closed his eyes, and was plunged into a deep intoxication by Ah Chu's kiss. Ah Chu pulled him like a magic power, and surrounded him with the most gentle everything.

Ah Ci was drunk, perhaps, the wine mixed with water would also smoke people.

"Uncle, Uncle, Happy New Year! I want to celebrate the new year... ah..."

The child's innocent voice rang in his ears, the sentence was not finished, and in the end he was cut off alive in shock.

This sound was also like thunder, knocking on Ah Ci's heart.

Ah Fu stood at the door with his mouth covered, his black grape-like eyes widened, as if shocked by what he saw.

"Uh……"

Ah Chu who was interrupted was also taken aback for a moment. During this moment, Ah Fu covered his eyes and ran downstairs as if trying to escape.

There were still two people in the room, he and Ah Ci.

Outside the house is still so noisy, fireworks.

However, looking at each other, Ah Chu looked embarrassed, but Ah Ci showed more panic...fear amidst the embarrassment.

Ah Ci's complexion was rarely like this now, because he became pale from panic.

What's more, he just had a drink.

Ever since New Year's Eve, Ah Chu felt pain. He couldn't tell what was wrong with him, but he felt that Ah Ci's whole attitude towards him had become weird.

Being silent and not talking much has always been Ah Ci's personality, but it doesn't mean that he will become stiff when facing each other in front of him.

Now Ah Ci seems to feel uncomfortable as long as he stays with him for a while, and the most common sentence is, big brother, you can let me do it by myself.

Ah Chu felt more and more wrong, obviously it was not like this before.

Now don't talk about eating tofu, don't talk about good morning kisses, just sleep on a bed, touch hands, Ah Ci will shrink back as quickly as touching a cactus.

I'm upset, I'm really upset.Ah Chu felt aggrieved.

After thinking about it, I still think that Ah Ci might have been bluffed by Ah Funa's surprise that night on New Year's Eve.Ah Chu didn't care about it, because Ah Fu still climbed up on the stool to eat breakfast obediently after that, then obediently went out to buy groceries, went home to guard the door, read books by himself and studied under Ah Chu's guidance, what should he do? Why act like nothing happened.

"That day... you ran like that..." Ah Chu, who finally couldn't hold back, asked Ah Fu cautiously.

"Ah? What day?" Ah Fu, who was eating his meal, answered vaguely.

Ah Chu, who finally worked up the courage to ask a question, was a little embarrassed when faced with the child’s innocent expression, no matter how bold and thick-skinned he was: “Just...just on the New Year’s Eve...you didn’t come up to see us...uh , and then ran down again? Are you frightened?"

"Oh." Ah Fu scratched his head and finally remembered, "Kiss."

"Uh..." Ah Chu was stunned, the child really spoke without restraint.

"Uncle, you are the one who is intimidated!" Ah Fu rolled his eyes, and raised his chest as if to show that he was not intimidated at all: "My parents said that children should not see adults kissing each other." Dear, President Needle Eye."

Ah Chu coughed a few times, feeling lucky that he wasn't drinking water, otherwise he would have spewed it out in one gulp.

That's right, he was really taken aback, but the child's reason turned out to be so simple.

But why does Ah Ci care so much?Is he really so shy?

Ah Chu thought about it, but he still couldn't find a reason to comfort himself like this, and he had the right to accept Ah Ci who was so reserved now.

He originally thought that Ah Ci would not mind so much after a while, but the situation was not what he thought at all.

Let alone the first month, even February has passed, and it is almost March. Ah Ci is still so reserved, and Ah Chu really feels a little restless, and even if this continues, there is a sign of rage.

Guarding Ah Ci, he stopped moving forward. Every time Ah Ci looked at him, he was always cautious, and he would never want two people to share a bed at night. Ah Ci's excuse was very good, "My injury is not healed."

So he coldly threw Ah Chu onto the hard bed next door. There seemed to be a word in ancient times called emptiness and loneliness. Ah Chu suddenly felt how good this word was, and it was exactly the same as his situation.

Until now, Ah Ci's injury has basically healed, and with the help of Ah Chu, he can get out of bed, sit in a wheelchair and go to his desk to continue his radio work.Ah Chu restrained his personality and accompanied him in Xiaoshi Hutong. Recently, the situation has become more and more tense, and the war has become increasingly fierce. The Japanese side issued an order to kill them. The factory under his name in the Shanghai Concession was also ordered by the Japanese authorities. Try to seal it off and destroy it.

Because the situation was too tense, Ah Si didn't dare to walk casually into the small stone alley. Xia Yuechun learned to use the radio to communicate with Ah Ci. There was an indescribably tense atmosphere in every place, and everyone seemed to be already Taut strings.

"Ah Ci..." Finally on this day, Ah Chu couldn't bear it any longer, and decided to have a good talk with Ah Ci: "Have we not talked for a long time?"

"Brother?" Ah Ci didn't take off the earphones, and continued to lean over his desk: "Let's talk later."

"Busy?" Ah Chu looked at him.

"Hmm." Ah Chu responded.

"But I just saw you turned off the radio, what are you busy with?" Ah Chu put a cup of tea in front of Ah Ci, staring at him: "You are avoiding me."

Ah Ci was taken aback, "No...how could it be." He secretly blamed himself for turning off the radio, now he had no excuse and could only face Ah Chu directly.

"Why have you been so unfamiliar with me for the past few months?" Ah Chu saw that Ah Ci looked away, and turned to the front unwillingly: "Ah Ci! I think we need to talk about this issue."

"No, brother, you really think too much." Ah Ci looked up helplessly: "I'm not unfamiliar, I... I've never been very good at talking, you don't know."

"But you..." Ah Chu gritted his teeth and paused, "But I just think your attitude has been very strange since New Year's Eve. Are you blaming me for being too careless for Ah Fu to see?"

Ah Ci turned his face stiffly: "I don't." His tone also became stiff: "Brother, don't make something out of nothing, I still have a job."

That attitude is completely unwilling to open up and refuse to communicate.

Ah Chu nodded helplessly, "Okay, if you say it's nothing, then it's nothing." He stood up and sighed: "Go to work, I won't bother you anymore."

After speaking, he turned around and walked out.He walked very slowly, even thinking that Ah Ci would turn around and call him to stop him, but there was no sound when he walked all the way to the door. Ah Chu was really disappointed, and went downstairs a little dejected.

Ah Ci trembled slightly in a place Ah Chu couldn't see, took a breath very carefully, and controlled his mood.
