Debasing is not as easy as you think

Chapter 2 Once Upon a Time

The roar of cars, the noisy crowd, the scarlet eyes, the numb heart...

Lin Chen suddenly opened his eyes and sat up on the bed.Beads of sweat slid from his forehead, and fear spread from his eyes to all parts of his body. He was in a mess as if he had just escaped from the scene of a disaster.

Noticing Lin Chen's strangeness, Xu Yiran got up from the stool and walked over, with a nervous expression on his face, "Brother Chen, what's wrong?"

Lin Chen's pupils slowly returned to their original shape. He glanced at Xu Yiran, then closed his eyes and let out a long sigh of relief, "It's okay, I just had a nightmare!"

When Lin Chen said it was okay, he slowly loosened his frown, then turned and ran out.After a while, when I came back, I had an extra towel in my hand.

He sat down by the bed, wiped the sweat on Lin Chen's forehead and face with a warm towel, and said as if to comfort him, "I used to have nightmares too. When I was young, I would dream of monsters chasing me. Then I woke up while running, and I woke up sweating." Having said this, Xu Yiran laughed to himself.

Lin Chen also laughed.

Xu Yiran continued, "When I grow up, I will also have nightmares. The scene has changed, but I am still very scared."

"What did you dream about?"

"I dreamed..."

Xu Yiran's hand holding the towel didn't move. He stared at Lin Chen, "Dreaming... Mom is not here, you are not here, uncles and aunts are not here, it seems that I am the only one left in the whole world."

Listening to Xu Yiran's words, Lin Chen was distracted for a moment.

After a few seconds, he regained his composure, raised his hand and rubbed Xu Yiran's hair, "It means that you have grown up, and you already have someone you cherish. Xu Yiran, parents are the closest people in our life, Even if the whole world doesn't want us, only our parents won't. Besides, Aunt Xu is so gentle, she will definitely be with you forever!"

Xu Yiran raised his head and stared at Lin Chen, "What about you? Will you do it too?"

Lin Chen was stunned, and couldn't help thinking, would he always be with Xu Yiran?Can?

Lin Chen withdrew his hand with a vaguely wry smile on the corner of his mouth.

After thinking for two seconds, he smiled at Xu Yiran and said, "Yes, why not? Brother Chen is still waiting for you to give you a big red envelope when you get married!"

Hearing Lin Chen's answer, Xu Yiran's expression changed a bit.

It's not that Lin Chen didn't see it, but let's pretend he didn't!

For some things, since one step is destined to be wrong, then one should not take that step at all!

The next morning, Lin Chen came out of the room dragging his flip flops. His father was reading the newspaper in the living room, and his mother was preparing breakfast for them in the kitchen.Even though it was already the second day after returning, Lin Chen still couldn't believe this fact.

Seeing his mother's youthful appearance, Lin Chen felt a little relieved.His mother has always been the most beautiful. I remember that some time ago, before he came back here, his mother always complained to him that age is not forgiving, why she is so old.

It sounded like a sigh, but in Lin Chen's ears, Lin Chen felt a burst of sadness. His mother has paid too much for this family for so many years.Thinking of the scene when Xu Yiran and himself came out to the family back then, the sadness on his mother's face at that time has been deeply imprinted in his mind, no matter how many years have passed, it still lingers.

Lin Chen's father was a serious person. Lin Chen never knew that his father was so open-minded in matters of relationship.When he confessed to his family that he was with Xu Yiran.At that time, his father's reaction did not appear to be very excited, but calm.

He still remembers his father saying to them at that time: "I don't care about the feelings of you young people, and I can't control them, as long as you are happy and don't make your family worry about it!"

Lin Chen's mother has a straight temper, she always says what she has, while his father is more gentle.Lin Chen was well educated by his parents since he was a child. Of course, his mother also taught him to speak straight.But no matter how straightforward he was, he didn't dare to speak rashly when it came to his relationship with Xu Yiran.It's not because he's timid, it's just that he has too many things to worry about, not only taking care of his parents' emotions but also Xu Yiran's feelings.

Xu Yiran is like the second son of his family, the two of them are almost like two brothers together.It is conceivable how determined his parents were to agree with the two of them.

Lin Chen also remembered that when he just graduated, his father mentioned more than once that he wanted to hold a grandson.Lin Chen was already with Xu Yiran at that time, but his parents didn't know.He felt guilty in his heart, he was the only child in his family, if he didn't get married, in a feudal sense, his old Lin family would have lost all children and grandchildren in his generation.

Lin Chen knows that it is difficult to change a person's inherent thoughts, but his father is constantly tolerant for him, and even gave up the idea of ​​having a grandson. All decisions are for him.

At that time, Lin Chen didn't think about being separated from Xu Yiran.But it's okay not to touch things like feelings, once they are contaminated, it's hard to get rid of them.

Lin Chen also admitted that he was a little selfish, he couldn't bear Xu Yiran, so he couldn't give up easily.

Thinking of the past, Lin Chen frowned helplessly.

But those are all things of the past!

In the afternoon, Lin Chen heard from his parents that his sister-in-law was coming here, and his brother was also coming.

Lin Chen's mother was cooking in the kitchen, and she called out to Lin Chen outside the kitchen: "Lin Chen, come in and get me a plate, I can't move my hands."

coming! "

Lin Chen walked into the kitchen, opened the cupboard, handed the plate to his mother, and asked, "Mom, when will sister-in-law and the others come over?"

"It's almost almost there. It is said that I will arrive at the station after three o'clock in the afternoon, and I will be home just in time for dinner."

Lin Chen's sister-in-law lives in her hometown, which is a little far away from them.His parents originally lived in their hometown, but they moved here because of work.

Lin Chen's sister-in-law was very kind to him. Whenever he went back to his hometown when he was a child, his sister-in-law would buy him a lot of delicious and interesting things every time. Later, when Lin Chen entered junior high school, he didn't have as much time as before, so he went back more and more often. less.

It was almost five o'clock when Lin Chen's sister-in-law's family arrived and brought his younger brother You Rui along.

You Rui didn't let him worry when he was a child, and even more so when he grew up.

He has been a picky eater since he was a child, and he is not tall when he grows up, only a little over 1.7 meters.This was attributed by everyone to the fact that he didn't like to eat, so much so that he always blamed his brother, saying why his brother didn't urge him to eat more.

It's all right now, Lin Chen thought, since he finally came back, he must "take good care" of You Rui now!

Lin Chen promised You Rui that as long as he eats two full bowls of rice, he will take him to the amusement park outside.When You Rui heard that he was able to play, his small eyes widened.

Although he doesn't like to eat, sometimes it's okay to be wronged and eat more.After all, if you want to get something, you may have to pay more for other things!

Well, You Rui encouraged himself in his heart.

During dinner, You Rui really ate two big bowls, and just as soon as he put the bowl down, he stared at his brother.

Lin Chen is a trustworthy person, if he said he would take You Rui out, he would definitely do so.He put down the bowl and asked the opinions of several elders, and after getting the consent, he took the person out.

Breathing the air outside is different, You Rui followed behind his brother excitedly, looking at all kinds of equipment in the amusement park, he was so excited that he could hardly speak.

Especially after his brother took him to play a few games, the excitement reached its peak in no time. He grabbed his brother and coquettishly said, "Brother, you are so kind!" Lin Chen got him off his body, He pushed up again, "Brother, I really love you so much!"

Lin Chen squinted at him, and he laughed again.

You Rui is a very funny person by nature, but he has a problem, that is, he likes to pretend to be mature.But in front of his brother, he broke his power in a second!

When he got home, his mother told him that her sister-in-law wanted You Rui to go to elementary school here, and she took You Rui to complete the admission procedures yesterday, but the two of them might have to go to school because their work over there was not over yet. It will take a while to come up, so I want You Rui to live at home temporarily.

Lin Chen nodded and said no problem.When Lin Chen heard his mother say that his sister-in-law was coming to the house today, he already knew it.

Because, for him, these things that have happened or are about to happen are just the past!

Sister-in-law and the others have to catch the night bus tonight, so when it is getting dark, sister-in-law and the others will go back.Lin Chen took You Rui to see them off. You Rui was very sensible and did not cry in front of his parents. It was not until his parents got in the car and out of sight that he finally couldn't help crying while hugging Lin Chen.

Lin Chen has experienced too many such parting scenes, but he still can't say any words of comfort. The only thing he can do is to stay with You Rui.

Crowds come and go at the station, some say goodbye, some say goodbye.

Seeing a couple walking towards the car holding hands not far away, the corners of Lin Chen's eyes turned red.

Once upon a time, he and that person lived like this.

When he was about to return home at night, You Rui was hugged by Lin Chen and fell asleep.Lin Chen took out the key, and before he opened the door of his own house, the door opposite opened.

Xu Yiran came out wearing slippers and shorts, "Brother Chen?"

"Shh..." Lin Chen put his finger on his mouth.

Xu Yiran turned his head slightly to look at the child in Lin Chen's arms, only to realize that the child was already asleep, so he consciously lowered his voice, "Why did you come back now? Who is this child?"

"My cousin, You Rui. I was brought here by my sister-in-law today, and he will live in our house for a period of time in the future. Okay, I won't tell you, let's go in first!" Although You Rui is only seven years old, he still weighs a lot Lin Chen hugged it all the way back, his hands were sore.

After speaking, Lin Chen opened the door and walked in quickly, ignoring Xu Yiran who seemed to have something to say behind him.

Xu Yiran stood at the door of his house, looking at the closed door in front of him, feeling a little discouraged.

He just wanted to ask Lin Chen if he wanted to go to school together tomorrow.

Lin Chen went in and put You Rui down, washed up, and when he was about to go to bed, he suddenly remembered Xu Yiran just now.

Does Xu Yiran have something to say to him?Or send a message to ask!

Lin Chen picked up the phone and edited the text message, "Why did you call me back just now?"

His finger had already been placed on the OK button in the middle, but Lin Chen suddenly hesitated in the next second and did not press it immediately.

Lin Chen asked himself in his heart: to return, or not to return?

After thinking about it for a long time, and holding my fingers in a deadlock for a long time, I finally chose to delete the lines one by one.

Lin Chen, now that you have made up your mind, don't give him any hope!

The author has something to say:

You Rui is a very cute big baby, he is really the type that can make people cute, ah, let's talk about it later!

Move your little finger, bring home the stunner, refill!
