Chapter 6

When he woke up the next morning, Willis sat in front of Leon's bed with a serious face, his eyes were red, as if he hadn't slept all night.

"What's wrong?" Leon rubbed his eyes and sat up.

"It's time for training."

The amiable Willis seemed to have become another person. The white teeth that were often seen could not be seen, and the corners of the always upturned mouth were stretched into a straight line, as serious as a statue in a museum.

Leon immediately began to dress, then jumped on the bed.

"Let's go and have breakfast."

"Ah, wait a minute."

Leon pushed the quilt to the head of the bed, and then flipped over the sign next to the pillow.The timing cards, the size of a child's palm, have a light blue "8" written on them, and two olive green "10s".

"You miss him very much?"

"Yeah." Leon nodded.

He dreamed of Gu Qing last night.In the dream, Leon pushed open the door of the laboratory by himself, but Gu Qing did not ignore him, but hugged him immediately.He was full of the laboratory smell that Leon was familiar with. In his dream, he was extremely brave, hugging Lu Qing's neck and crying all the time, crying... very happy.

Leon wanted to tell Willis about this complicated dream, but he didn't dare to say anything when he saw his face.

"Oh." Willis seemed to want to say something, but in the end he didn't.He twisted the notebook lanyard around his neck, and said to Leon, "Let's start with theoretical knowledge first."

Willis took Leon to the kitchen, set him breakfast, and set up the whiteboard they usually use to learn Chinese.

"What about you?"

"I've eaten." Willis thought for a moment and smiled at him.

Leon silently began to eat, and then watched Willis draw.He first drew a piece of green grass, and then drew a diamond-shaped kite floating in the air.He painted very vividly, the kite seemed to be very far away from the grass, so far that it floated into the clouds, and the grass on the ground looked up ignorantly.

"You are young, let me explain it to you in a more vivid way."

Leon took a sip of milk and nodded seriously.

"We are like the grass on the meadow. We want to know what is in the distant sky, and we also want to know when it rains and when there is hail in the sky, but we can't go up. At this time, there will be such a kite-like person to replace us. Go and see first. They will tell us what they see so we can prepare in advance."

"Your father is like this kite. Compared with us, he is a person who lives in the future."

"Every kite needs a string to bring him back to us when he is about to get lost in the future." Willis drew a thin string, "This string is the only thing the kite needs to get back to the grass. It is very important to rely on, so it must be handed over to a proper place for compaction."

"The most important thing is that you have to find an...existence that can deliver this rope." Willis paused and continued to draw, "It can be a person, a picture, or a thing. It's important Yes, you only have one chance to deliver."

"Father, I can give it to him." Hearing this earnestly, Leon had the opportunity to chew a few bites of the bread he had been holding in his mouth.

"He can't. What you want to choose is something stable and long-lasting."

"Dad will leave me?"

"Leon, nothing stays together forever."

Leon lowered his head and thought about it again, if he was a kite, if there was no Gu Qing on the ground, he might not want to come back.

"What if you can't choose?" he asked.

"Sooner or later the kite will fly away, or be torn apart by the storm on the way back."

"Just let the kite fly away, okay?" Leon asked softly.

"Leon, this is not a joke or a child's anger. Flying away or tearing up the corresponding reality means death. You have to look at this issue rationally."

correspond.reason.The words Willis spoke to him today were hard to understand. Leon searched hard in his mind and asked softly, "Should I act like a 'gentleman'?"

"Who taught you this word?"

It must be his dead parents.It's also possible that the dead ones came back often when he was asleep, otherwise why would he always remember the word?

"Let this word... be your anchor." Willis pointed to the kite in the air: "When you are lost in the past and future, rely on this word to return to reality."

"My father, what is his word?"

Willis's always bright eyes slowly dimmed: "That's a secret, when you become like him, go and ask him yourself."

Breakfast ended like this inexplicably.In the morning, Willis let him watch a very old movie in the basement alone, the sad life of a dwarf with a tin drum.Leon liked his special abilities a little bit, and envied him that he could always carry his own drum. A gentleman couldn't be like him.

When the movie finished, Willis hadn't come back, the screen went black, Leon sat quietly in the dark for a long time, his mind was filled with the sound of the dwarf beating the drum.

Boom, boom, boom.

In the afternoon, Willis took him to the empty pool.He led him to the steps of the platform and squatted down: "Leon, I will jump off from it in a while. Remember what I said. Always think of your anchor."

"Like a gentleman," Leon said.

"Correct."

Leon walked up the cold railing alone.A gentleman must not cry, must not be afraid, but always smile.After counting to a dozen, Leon stood on the high platform.Willis got into the water too, waiting for him sternly at the edge of the pool.The scene was very similar to the movie he saw, and he felt like the terrified and determined little brother in the movie.

"Jump," he said.

Leon jumped off the top without hesitation.The water slapping his body was a little painful, but before he could think about it, the slightly sweet water flooded his eyes and ears. He closed his eyes tightly, thinking of Gu Qing holding the suitcase and pushing the door open. that moment.

"Great." Willis pulled him out of the water and pinched his nose.

"Cough cough cough..." Leon opened his mouth to spit water.

"We're going to practice like this for a while."

"Hmm." Leon nodded while coughing, "What are you going to do next?"

"Hold on." Willis thought for a while and said, "You can't tell your father; what I did to you is not abusing you."

"I know." Leon smiled.

Watching movies, diving, training repeatedly.The day Leon turned to "10", he lived like this.After lunch, he packed all his things, put on the thin coat that Gu Qing asked him to wear, sat upright in the living room and waited.Every passing car was like Gu Qing's car, every passing footstep sounded like Gu Qing was approaching, Leon was waiting with his back straight, like a gentleman.

He waited until it was time to sleep, but Gu Qing didn't come either.

"Leon, go to bed," Willis told him.

Leon nodded, his body motionless.

"If he comes, I'll wake you up."

"I'm waiting for him here."

"He's always so busy." Willis sighed. "You can't keep waiting."

Leon dragged his schoolbag and walked towards the guest room again.

"Wait a minute," Willis at the window called to stop him, "it seems that your father is here."

Leon dropped his schoolbag and ran to the door.Sure enough, there was Gu Qing's car outside the door, the dark green body almost blending into the darkness, with warm orange lights shining on it.

"Dad." Leon lowered his voice, but couldn't hide his excitement.

"I'm sorry," Gu Qing said to him, "I'm late."

Lyon shook his head like a rattle: "It's not too late."

"What's wrong with your arm?" Lu Qing grabbed his left arm and approached the porch light.

"When I was learning to swim, I fell down. It's okay." Leon retracted his arm and said to him with a smile.

I haven't seen you for a few days, and the child seems to have grown up a bit.The pride in his tone was as if the arm was not a lump, but a soldier's medal for suffering.

"Oh," Gu Qing nodded, "My master taught me how to swim when I was young. He threw me into the sea directly, and it was Willis who fished me out."

"Willis got me too," Leon told him.

"Then we are the same." Lu Qing smiled at him.

"Come in and say, beware of mosquitoes coming in." Willis said something behind them, and went to the kitchen, "Would you like a boiled egg?"

"No, a cup of coffee, thank you." Gu Qing said to him.

"Shall we go home now?" Leon asked him quietly.

Lu Qing shook his head: "I have to fly to London in the early morning."

"Then are you leaving?" The child gripped his collar tightly.

"I won't leave for now, I'll stay with you at Willis tonight." Lu Qing patted him on the back.

"That's great," Leon put his arms around his neck, "I miss you so much."

The child's rapid breathing was close to his ears, Gu Qing was not used to being so intimate with others, but he knew that he could not refuse a child who had been separated from him for a long time.He turned his head and picked him up, then took his schoolbag with the other hand and led him upstairs.

The guest room of Willis’s house used to have Gu Qing’s name on it, but now the old one has been taken down and replaced by a picture of a roaring lion.

"I live here these days." Leon introduced.

The furnishings in the room were still similar to when Gu Qing was a child, he put Leon on the bed, and took off his coat and shoes.I don't know if it was his illusion, but after leaving the environment where Willis was, Leon was obviously more relaxed.He kept talking to Gu Qing about his life these past few days, and the speed of his speech was twice as fast as before they separated.

"Willis's neighbor has a puppy, he likes to play with me very much, I also watched movies, and learned a lot of Chinese, I know a poem about geese, and I wear a coat when it's cold... ..."

Lu Qing had been listening to him, nodding his head while putting out the things he had packed up again.

"Lion is great." When he stopped, Gu Qing praised him.

"What about you? What have you been doing recently?"

"Work, work hard all the time."

Lu Qing wanted to tell him something specific, but found that he couldn't explain clearly.He took a blanket from a drawer at the bottom of the bed and spread it on the rug beside Leon's bed, and arranged another pillow, as if going to sleep.

"I want to help you." Leon said to him seriously.

"You're so good, you're already helping me." Gu Qing hugged him onto his own pillow, "Lie down, close your eyes and go to sleep."

Gu Qing turned on the orange night light and lay down on the blanket.Leon waited for a moment and opened his eyes a little.From his angle, he could see Gu Qing's toes. His father was wearing a pair of gray checked socks, which the two of them bought when they were shopping.

When he dragged his bag back, he already decided that Gu Qing would not come to pick him up.Just like he sneaked to his laboratory and stood in front of him, but he didn't see it, he was too busy with work, maybe he had forgotten him.In addition to worrying that he would forget him, he was also worried that Gu Qing would "die" like his parents and become a shadow that only came to see him when he was asleep.Just now when he was carrying him upstairs and packing his things, Leon felt that the Gu Qing in front of him was not real, there was no trace of the two of them together on his body, until he saw this pair of socks, he did not know I got a real feeling - Gu Qing really came to pick him up as he said.

"dad."

"Ok?"

"When we come back, let's go shopping together."

"What do you want to buy?"

"Buy you a new pair of socks."

Gu Qing didn't know how the child's mind jumped to this place, he chuckled and said to him: "Well, sleep well. I'll come back to pick you up in a few days."

After Leon fell asleep, Gu Qing walked back to the living room, the coffee on the coffee table was still not cold, and Willis was waiting for him.

"It's still running so late."

"I'm afraid that the children will be disappointed."

"If you raise him like this, what will you do if you have an apprentice in the future?"

"Frankly speaking, I still don't want to find an apprentice," Gu Qing said to him, "I think I can fulfill Juan's last wish by myself."

"Juan and his master are in a stalemate, the technology is not complete, and the funds that should be there are not complete, what are you going to do!"

"It's enough for me to worry about myself." Gu Qing patted him on the shoulder, "You help me take care of him, thank you."

Willis lowered his head so much that he muttered for a long time, "I'll just worry about this for you."

"Thanks for your hard work."

The author has something to say:

Evil does not prevail!nice! ! ! !Always Jiang Wen's feel, free and easy.

Several rooftop scenes are [-] times better than I expected. The snowy, spring and summer scenes are all very beautiful.Beiping is so beautiful when it is snowing—if it is pure rime, it is more beautiful in the Northeast.

The music is very nice~~

The story line is a bit like a great master. The group portraits of the characters in the great era don't just tell the story of one person.

In terms of actors, Peng Yuyan is great.In the early stage, Li Tianran was like a fool who had his head lowered. After he stubbornly took revenge according to his own ideas, his eyes immediately changed, as if he woke up from a nightmare. It should be that he put a lot of effort into it.

I like it very much and want to marry Zhou Yun.
