"Brother?" Wu Xie asked in surprise.

Zhang Qiling stood in the corridor, holding the mobile phone in his hand. Hearing this, he raised his head to look at him, his eyes were slightly darkened, which made Wu Xie feel like Zhang Qiling had seen through him, and he couldn't help but panic.

"I called you and no one answered, so I came to have a look." Zhang Qiling glanced at him, and said in a calm tone, "Why didn't you answer the phone?"

"I just now..." Wu Xie hesitated to speak, he struggled a bit, but decided not to hide it from Zhang Qiling, and said, "Brother, tell me, do you have anything to do with the Zhang family?"

Others may not be clear, but Wu Xie knows who Chen Pi Asi is. It seems that he is just a student, but he has been by the old man of the Chen family since he was a child. All kinds of open and dark arrows, growing up in such an environment, his skills and awareness are far superior to those of his peers, but he is not Zhang Qiling's opponent at all, which shows that Zhang Qiling's skills are definitely not ordinary.

How can an ordinary middle school student do this?

Zhang Qiling was silent for a while, then shook his head silently: "I don't know."

Before Wu Xie had time to think about the meaning of his words, Zhang Qiling looked up at Wu Xie, and said in a light but firm tone, "I'll take you to a place."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left. Wu Xie was stunned for a while, then quickly trotted to follow.

"Brother, where are we going?" Wu Xie asked after chasing after him.

Zhang Qiling turned his head slightly, and said, "You will know when you arrive."

Wu Xie had no choice but to follow behind him. The two of them were silent all the way. He lowered his head and focused all his attention on the bricks under his feet, tracing the texture of the bricks with his eyes boredly.

They walked in silence for a while, until the bricks in front of Wu Xie disappeared, and his feet stepped on the flat concrete floor. Wu Xie raised his head and realized that they had come to a gate, inside the gate were all Kids running around.

Wu Xie knew this place, he often passed by here, and sometimes he would take a look inside.

This is a welfare home funded by the government.

"This is where I grew up." Zhang Qiling looked up at the gate of the orphanage, and said in a nostalgic tone, "Actually, I don't know who my parents are. I lived here until I graduated from junior high school. Need to take care of other kids, they are sensitive, they are easy to be bullied at school, and I sometimes... stand up for them."

Speaking of this, he smiled, and said in a relaxed tone: "I haven't done it since I went to high school, and I'm a little rusty."

Wu Xie was taken aback for a moment, he couldn't speak, nor could he laugh.

At that moment, he didn't seem to feel anything, until he heard Zhang Qiling talking about himself in a nonchalant tone, his heart suddenly ached as if being tightly gripped by a hand, and he couldn't even breathe, he opened his mouth , Just as he was about to say something, the door was pushed open, and an old man with gray hair in a white coat came out from the door.

"It's awakening." The old man smiled kindly, like the grandmother next door, "I just heard the kid in the courtyard tell me that you were standing at the door, why didn't you come in?"

Zhang Qiling showed an unprecedented gentle expression, "It's me," he looked at the old man who was a head lower than him, "how are you recently?"

"Very good," the old man said with a smile, "Why are you standing at the door, come in and talk... This kid is your classmate?"

"I'm my brother's classmate," Wu Xie answered in time, "My little brother said that he has always missed grandma, so I'll accompany him to visit."

Zhang Qiling turned back to look at him after hearing what he said, Wu Xie blinked at him, Zhang Qiling was slightly surprised, and there was a little warmth in his eyes.

Grandma was very happy to see Zhang Qiling, and didn't notice the atmosphere between the two of them. Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling helped her in. When passing by the yard, all the children in the yard rushed towards Zhang Qiling happily, and they were not afraid to bite one at a time. Brother Qiling shouted, Zhang Qiling kept smiling in a rare way, there was rarely such an emotional moment on his face, he gently called out the names of each child, Wu Xie watched quietly from the side, and wanted to cry again Want to laugh again.

Seeing that Zhang Qiling probably didn't come back here often, Wu Xie quietly got up and went to the orphanage while they were talking.The equipment is slightly crude, but fortunately, the windows are bright and clean, and each room is spacious and bright, as bright as the smiling faces of those children.

When Zhang Qiling found him, Wu Xie was looking up at the old photos on the wall, turned around and saw him, and couldn't help smiling: "Thank you for bringing me here."

But Zhang Qiling said: "I should thank you."

Wu Xie was taken aback: "Why should you thank me? I didn't do anything."

Zhang Qiling looked out of the window: "Children here rarely see their friends of the same age visiting them. They all like you."

Wu Xie followed his gaze and saw a few children lying on their stomachs by the window, in their early teens, staring at him curiously. They were clean and without any hostility.

Wu Xie suddenly gave them a nasty smile, and the children were startled. Then Wu Xie took a few steps towards the window, and the children rushed away, yelling "Wow!" and ran away.

Wu Xie's prank succeeded, he put his hips on his hips and laughed triumphantly.

Hearing the laughter behind him, the child slowly stopped, and looked back hesitantly. Wu Xie smiled recklessly and brightly, while Zhang Qiling stood behind him, with a helpless and loving arc on the corner of his mouth. He just stood there, He is as vigorous as the sun, and when he smiles, he looks like a teenager in a painting.

And when he turned around, Zhang Qiling's whole world was illuminated.

"Qi Ling," grandma pushed open the door, "Do you want to stay for dinner tonight?" Then she cast her gaze on Wu Xie: "This little classmate should stay too."

Zhang Qiling looked at Wu Xie, saw that he was troubled, and said, "Grandma, you should prepare first, we'll be there soon."

After grandma left, Wu Xie said: "Brother, in fact, my mother called me just now, and they came back today. I may... I will go back in a while."

It may be that they are too used to living in Zhang Qiling's house. Both of them seem to have forgotten about it tacitly. The news came too suddenly. After Wu Xie hung up the phone, he was also very disturbed. , Wu Xie actually felt sorry for Zhang Qiling.

...Especially after he found out about Zhang Qiling again today.

Zhang Qiling thought for a while: "It's just a meal, it won't take too long, I'll take you back after eating."

Wu Xie let out a "huh" and agreed.

"Let's go," Zhang Qiling said, "Don't keep grandma waiting."

Seeing his lonely back when he turned around, Wu Xie couldn't help blurting out: "Brother, I will often find you to play in the future!"

Zhang Qiling looked back at him, and Wu Xie smiled embarrassedly: "As long as you don't find me annoying."

There was a slight wave in Zhang Qiling's eyes, he turned his head, but his words seemed to be a little more relaxed: "No, let's go."

They ate dumplings for dinner, a large table of children sat together, and the dinner time was filled with children's laughter, all of which Wu Xie, who grew up as an only child, did not feel.

Sure enough, Zhang Qiling sent Wu Xie downstairs after the meal.

"Come pick up your things tomorrow." Zhang Qiling patted Wu Xie's head: "Have a good rest tonight."

Wu Xie grinned, and after saying goodbye to Zhang Qiling, she jumped up to the fourth floor two steps at a time, took the key and opened the door to enter the house.

"Mom, I'm back." He walked towards the living room while talking, and suddenly saw a person sitting on the sofa in the living room.

He was stunned, and his feet stopped in place unconsciously.

"Uncle Third?"
