After dinner, Ling Yuan and Ah Cheng used guessing games to decide who would wash the dishes.

There are still a few days before the college entrance examination, and Ling Yuan thinks of ways to make Ah Cheng stop reading in his room all the time.

Is the child too nervous recently because of the exam?Why does he look so sullen all the time, no matter how funny he is, he can't get excited.Ling Yuan leaned against the kitchen door frame, looked at Ah Cheng who was silently washing the dishes quickly, and rubbed his chin thinking.

But Ah Cheng has never seen him nervous about any exams since he was a child.Speaking of it, his work is getting busier and busier, but Ah Cheng never needs to worry about his studies. He even got the first place in the class in the sewing class in the handicraft class of the sixth grade elementary school.Every time I am invited by the teacher to talk about the "Parenting Classics" at the parent-teacher meeting, there is nothing to talk about. The only thing I can talk about is how to make nutritious and delicious delicacies so that children can eat with a smile under the heavy study pressure.

Thinking of this, Ling Yuan couldn't help brushing his hair proudly.In fact, it’s one thing to eat with a smile on your face, and the key is to be able to eat juicy and handsome.But my A-Cheng has been a handsome guy since he was a child, and he's a good-looking guy, with those big round eyes that make anyone hard-hearted.

Tsk... that's a long way off.

Looking at Ah Cheng who had finished washing the bowls and cut up a plate of fruit and greeted Ling Yuan to eat in the living room, Ling Yuan said, "Ah Cheng, I'm on vacation the day after tomorrow, can I take you out to sketch? The flowers and plants have grown well these two days." .”

Ah Cheng chewed an apple, nodded sullenly and said, "Okay."

Uh... No, this reaction is wrong.Is it really because of the college entrance examination?Ling Yuan walked slowly to Ah Cheng and sat down.

"Oh, by the way, do you want to go out to play this summer vacation?" Ling Yuan suggested.

Ah Cheng blinked and asked, "Going out to play?"

Seeing that Ah Cheng seemed interested, Ling Yuan sat up straight and continued, "How about going on a trip? It just so happens that you have nothing to do this summer vacation, and uncle hasn't taken you on a trip for a long time... By the way, If you call Mingtai again, the two of you can play together. You can choose the time and place, as long as it’s not a place where I can’t contact you.”

"Uncle isn't going?"

Ling Yuan waved his hand and said: "My time is not flexible. If you are going to travel independently, if you want to play around for a while, it will be a disappointment if I have to rush back to work."

Ah Cheng wrinkled his nose, hesitating a little.After all, leaving my uncle at home to work alone, and running out to play by himself seems a little unfair.

Ling Yuan saw Ah Cheng's concerns, stretched out his hand to pat him, and said, "Don't worry about me, your uncle Wei asked me to go out to parties every three days, but I didn't have the nerve to leave you because you want to take the exam, you go out I can just relax after playing.”

"Well... this is serious. Speaking of which, I should really go out and have fun, and give you some space, otherwise you won't be alone at your age." Ah Cheng snickered.

"Hey boy, I'm joking about uncle." Ling Yuan smiled and tried to slap him, Ah Cheng hurriedly sat down on the small sofa next to him, Ling Yuan nodded him in the air, and continued: "However, you But don't think that if I don't go, you can play lawlessly with Mingtai. Who...Minglou, a professor of Ming University, happens to have summer vacation too. I will definitely let Minglou follow you two when the time comes I will go, after all, you two are still half-grown children, I don’t worry about uncle, Ming Lou just happens to protect you and act as a driver for you by the way; secondly, didn’t you two claim to be under his control since childhood, take advantage of this opportunity Let him do the hard work..."

Before the words were finished, Ling Yuan saw that Ah Cheng's smile had faded instantly, swallowed the apples in his mouth in two gulps, and found an excuse to go back to his room to read a book.

Ling Yuan was surprised, thinking back, could it be that there was something wrong with his words?

But after thinking about it, there was nothing special about it, it was just that when it was mentioned that Ming Lou should accompany him on a trip, Ah Cheng suddenly seemed like a deflated balloon.

Could it be that he and his brother had a dispute?Minglou is such an adult, why do you still have trouble with my family Ah Cheng?childish!

Looking at Ah Cheng's tightly closed door, Ling Yuan rubbed his chin, feeling that the child's abnormalities these days seem to have found the root cause.

Well, subtle...

Three days after the college entrance examination, Ling Yuan took annual leave to pick him up.Originally, Ming Jing wanted to come to cheer up Ah Cheng, but Ling Yuan declined. The reason was that he was afraid that too many people would bring pressure to Ah Cheng, but what he thought in his heart was that "too many people" was equivalent to Ming Lou.

There is still a long time before the end of the exam, but a girl has already handed in the paper ahead of schedule.The media at the door swarmed up to do interviews. This girl seemed to be the first student in the city to finish the exam.

Sitting in the car, Ling Yuan leaned forward slightly and looked around. Suddenly, the door beside him was pulled open. Ling Yuan quickly turned his head to look, and saw Ah Cheng who was running panting and sweating profusely.

"Congratulations on graduation." Ling Yuan smiled and handed Ah Cheng a piece of paper to wipe off his sweat.

"It's just finished the exam, and I haven't got my graduation certificate yet." Although Ah Cheng said so, the excitement and ease of the college entrance examination still made him excited.

Ling Yuan started the car and asked him, "How did you get out? Didn't you get stopped?"

Ah Cheng took out his mobile phone and turned it on: "I waited for that girl to go out before I came out." He paused and said, "And I run fast, there is no way to catch up with me while carrying a camera."

Ling Yuan laughed, and asked him: "Then where are you going next? After suffering for so long, uncle will take you to relax!"

"I want to eat ice cream! After eating, I'll eat hot pot, it's very spicy! I've been eating light food for a few months, and now I want to have diarrhea to my heart's content." Ah Cheng said without raising his head.

Ling Yuan smiled and didn't say anything about him, but just figured out which business district is closest to here.

"Boom-"

The co-pilot heard the sound of objects falling, and Ling Yuan asked casually, "What is it?"

The voice fell to the ground, but there was no response for a long time.Ling Yuan was surprised, and quickly glanced at Ah Cheng.

With just one glance, Ling Yuan frowned, and quickly pulled the car over to the side of the road.

Ah Cheng sat beside him in a daze, looking at his empty right hand with dull eyes, Ling Yuan unbuckled his seat belt and leaned forward, seeing the mobile phone that had fallen on the ground.

"What's the matter? What happened?" Ling Yuan looked at Ah Cheng whose eye circles were slowly turning red, and asked eagerly.

Ah Cheng was speechless in a daze, and after a long time, he slowly regained his breath: "Uncle, maybe I won't be able to go out to play during the summer vacation..."

"what?"

"Brother is gone."

Minglou left.

Ling Yuan didn't understand Ah Cheng's meaning at first, but just drove Ah Cheng home first.

As soon as he got home, Ah Cheng hid in the room.Although Ling Yuan didn't know why Ah Cheng's reaction was so big, he knew that Ah Cheng just wanted to be alone now, and when he wanted to talk to him, they should have a long conversation.

Ah Cheng returned to the room and closed the door, not knowing whether to sit or lie down for a moment.

"Brother Ah Cheng! My eldest brother has gone to France!!! My God, he has been away for two days! I just found out!!! Call me after you finish the exam! Let's see if there is anything we want to buy and find him Purchasing agent!"

There was no sign, no farewell, only a text message from Mingtai full of exclamation points.

They haven't seen each other for more than a month after the festival.

Mingtai also didn't tell him anything about Minglou, and only said, "Brother hasn't been home recently, and he's been living at his own place all the time. I think he and sister had a fight."

He was the only one in the small room, the door was closed, the windows were closed, not only the room, he was the only one left in the whole world.As if immersed in water, all the sounds of the outside world were inaudible.

Ah Cheng stood at the door for an unknown how long until his legs became numb.He slowly came back to his senses, walked towards the desk, and stretched out his hand to open the first drawer on the right.

The drawers are difficult to open because they are too heavy.There are more than a dozen sketchbooks with different contents drawn here.Ah Cheng took out a black book hidden in the innermost part, and opened it.

The sketchbook is very thick, but I have drawn to the last few pages.Ah Cheng started from the end, flipping forward one by one.Either walking, or stopping, or quiet, or joyful, or full body, or close-up... One by one, the protagonist is all one person.

With a sound of "Pa-ta--", the pen lines drawn on the paper slowly blurred, and Ah Cheng sneered coldly.This unscrupulous merchant clearly promised to sell absolutely waterproof ink. Could it be that tears are not water?

No matter how beautiful a movie is, it will always end, and no matter how good a story is, it will always end.Even though the book is full of drawings, no matter how slowly you turn the pages, there will always be an end.

Finally, the slender fingers rested on a full close-up of a painting.Eyes, thighs, ankles, eyebrows, hips, shoulders, upper arms...

The lines are quick and full of passion, but the most conspicuous thing is two drops of dried blood.

Ah Cheng stared blankly, tears falling down uncontrollably.He squatted down, weeping silently, until he cried out loudly silently, his throat hurt unbearably from suppressing the crying, but he couldn't hurt his broken heart.

Why did you leave, I will continue to be an obedient brother, what are you afraid of, I don't want to pester you...

It was completely dark, and Ah Cheng didn't make a sound in the room. Ling Yuan was so worried that he couldn't help but walked to Ah Cheng's door and raised his hand to knock on the door lightly.

There was no response, Ling Yuan knocked patiently for a while, but there was still no answer.

Ling Yuan frowned, opened the door, and saw the teenager curled up on the carpet sleeping.

Ling Yuan walked over quickly, Ah Cheng was sleeping extremely restlessly, his brows were tightly wrinkled, and his face was full of tears.Ling Yuan reached out to wake him up, but was startled suddenly by the blood on the sketchbook in his hand.

Ling Yuan looked at it abruptly, and it took him two seconds to confirm that it was not fresh blood.Heaving a sigh of relief secretly, Ling Yuan wanted to continue to wake up the sleeping boy, but he couldn't take his eyes off the open sketchbook.

In addition to the extremely familiar eyebrows and eyes painted all over the paper, Ling Yuan pursed his thin lips, and what shocked him even more was an unfinished line of poetry——

Whose house is boating tonight, where is the lovesickness?

A smudge of ink stayed next to the last word "Ming", together with the blood stains, it made the sketch look messy.

Ling Yuan stood up, did not continue to wake Ah Cheng up, but just picked up the thin quilt from his bed, and gently covered him.Then quietly closed the door, turned and left.

Whose house is flat boat tonight, where is Acacia Mingyue Tower.

Ah Cheng, this time, how can uncle help you...
