Stand-in Raiders

Mother Li thought of what she could feel when Li Yu came back to the orphanage a few years ago. The child was very happy, and every time he talked about his lover, he had a sweet face.

Originally, Li's mother just blindly thought that Li Yunian's lover didn't like his origin in the orphanage, so Li Yunian never brought her.

However, it turned out that this "she" was a man?

"Mr. Xiao, you are not teasing my old lady." Li's mother's voice trembled a little, and she couldn't accept such explosive news for a while.

Xiao Ping knew that most people would be shocked when they heard such news, so he blamed him too, why didn't he make it clear in the first place?

At that time, Xiao Ping only thought about having more connections with Li Yunian, how could he think of explaining his relationship with Li Yunian clearly?

"Mother Li, he and I really love each other, just like male and female lovers. You must know that love cannot distinguish between genders." Xiao Ping felt that the sharp tongue he had honed when he was in the sales department had no effect at this time. , He clearly had something he wanted to say, but he couldn't say it at this time.

"You love him, what about him? Does he love you too? Did you force him?" Mother Li knew in her heart that every time Li Yunian talked about lovers, she showed love, but she still wanted to ask, holding One out of ten thousand hope.

"Mother Li, he loves me too, you should feel it." Xiao Ping knew that Li Yunian would take time to visit the orphanage every month, but he never stayed with Li Yunian, this was his problem , but this cannot be a proof that he doesn't love him.

Li's mother refused to think about Li Yunian's behavior before. She felt that her child would not be so deviant. She hoped that every child could have a happy life, but she had never heard of men and men.

Can two men really be happy together?

In the end, Xiao Ping didn't say much, he could only leave, and told Mother Li that he would go to the US Emperor to visit Li Yunian in a few days, and before going, he would come to the orphanage to bring some winter clothes for the children.

It was already winter in a blink of an eye, and the children's winter clothes were indeed not ready.

Although there is winter every year, the children grow up every year, and there is always not enough clothes to wear.

Mother Li stood at the gate of the orphanage and watched Xiao Ping drive away, with a ten-year-old boy standing beside her.

"Mother Li, why did Uncle Xiao leave so quickly today?" The little boy also looked at the direction Xiao Ping was leaving with disappointment in his eyes. He liked this uncle very much, and this time he hadn't let this uncle touch him yet. In order not to let his uncle touch his greasy hair, he insisted on washing his hair every day.

"Xiao Xin, Uncle Xiao will come to see you in a few days." Mother Li rubbed the child's head. She knew the child's thoughts. Li Xin came to the orphanage for only three months and was abandoned by his mother. In the hospital and then sent to the hospital.

This kid used to be Li Yunian's little follower, and every time Li Yunian would run up and down with him, when Li Yunian had an accident three years ago, he was depressed for a whole year, until Xiao Ping appeared.

"You like Uncle Xiao so much now, have you forgotten your brother Yu Nian?" Mother Li thought of the news that Li Yu Nian was still alive just now, and thought that she might be able to tell this child.

"Brother Yu Nian, he..." Speaking of Li Yu Nian, Li Xin lowered his head immediately, he felt his eyes were hot, as if there were drops of water about to fall.

"Mother Li, I miss Brother Yu Nian." Li Xin held the corner of Mother Li's clothes with one hand, and grabbed the hem of his own clothes with the other, "Brother Yu Nian clearly said that he would prepare New Year's gifts for me every year, but It’s been two years.” Although all the children in the hospital have a share, Li Xin knows that the gift he gets must be the biggest and best!

"Xiao Xin, don't be sad, this year your elder brother Yu Nian might prepare a gift for you." Mother Li squatted down to comfort Li Xin, "Your Uncle Xiao just told me that elder brother Yu Nian just went to study far away. Yes, when he comes back from studying, he will definitely buy you a gift."

"Really?" Li Xin raised his head, his dark eyes stared straight at Li's mother, and his eyes sparkled.

"Of course it's true. When did Mama Li lie to you?" Mama Li slapped Li Xin on the face, "Brother Yu Nian is a very good student, you should study hard too, you know?"

"Understood, Mama Li." Li Xin nodded, followed Mama Li back to the yard, then went into his room and found a damaged textbook and began to read. The three characters "Li Yunian" written in pencil, but the font is childish, it looks like a child's handwriting.

***

Christmas is a very grand festival in the United States. On this day, most American people will take to the streets to celebrate.

"Li, are you really not going to play with us? We have already booked the hotel." James invited Li Yunian to the back of the left in the dormitory, "Li, it's really interesting, come together!"

No matter how well James said that this part called "Christmas Party" was a "blind date meeting" in Li Yunian's view, he didn't want to try it. He still remembered the first time he met James when he went out. The chaos.

It was the first time that Li Yunian felt that the image of the US Emperor in his heart had collapsed.

Or thinking that this is the place where Xiao Ping studied abroad and where the computer technology is the most developed, Li Yunian always felt that it was very sacred and beautiful, but that day he realized that even if it is heaven, there are mortals.

That chaotic gathering is something Li Yunian still doesn't want to recall.

"Okay, I'll go by myself, you don't have to hold the door for me." Seeing that Li Yunian couldn't move, James had to go by himself.

This time, it was a place taken by a senior who was not quite right with him, and he was not very familiar with it. If Li Yunian really went there, he would not be able to take care of him, so he should go alone.

Not long after James left, Li Yunian heard a knock on the door.

"What's the matter, James?" Li Yunian opened the door, "I didn't bring..." What?

The words got stuck in the middle of his mouth, and the person in front of him was not James at all, but Xiao Ping.Why is Xiao Ping here at this time?

"Xiao Nian!" Xiao Ping raised the bag in his hand, "Happy holidays!"

Li Yunian pursed his lips, stood at the door and looked at Xiao Ping for a long time before turning sideways to let him in.He really didn't want to see Xiao Ping at this time, but on this Christmas day when everyone was bustling, he also very much hoped that someone would be by his side.

Xiao Ping appeared at the right time.

"Why are you here?" Li Yunian got Xiao Ping a glass of water, and then sat aside, "Isn't this time when the company is busy?"

Li Yunian remembers that the end of each year is the busiest time for the Xiao family. Employees' bonuses, New Year's goods, dividends, and various meetings, dinners, and gifts before the New Year, all of them are laborious and laborious. Chinese New Year is more tiring than nothing.

But during the few days of Chinese New Year holidays every year, it is also a happy thing for the family to stay together and listen to the New Year's countdown bell. At that moment, you will feel that the busyness of the previous half month is worth it.

"The company is very busy," Xiao Ping did not deny this, "but I may not be very busy."

Li Yunian still doesn't know that Xiao Ping has fired himself, he just thinks that Xiao Ping has distributed all the things to the people in the secretary's office, and he has stolen a leisurely time.

"I brought dinner, you must have not eaten at this point." After entering the dormitory, Xiao Ping directly pulled James' chair to Li Yunian's side and sat down, so quickly that Li Yunian didn't have the time to refuse.

"I've eaten." Li Yunian did. Before leaving, James was afraid that his roommate would forget to eat while reading, so he put a box of milk and bread next to Li Yunian's desk. Li Yunian took a sip of milk and ate two slices of bread.

If you really count it, you have eaten it.

"But I brought them all in a bag, what if you don't eat?" Xiao Ping put the bag in Li Yunian's desk in a free place, and naturally saw the unsealed bread and milk beside him.

Li Yunian's desk is very neat, and the milk and bread don't seem like things that Li Yunian would buy. Most of them are prepared by the man named James.

Taking advantage of Li Yunian's inattention, Xiao Ping put those two things on James's table, and then took out Li Yunian's usual bowls and dishes with ease - Xiao Ping observed these things specially when eating dumplings last time, just for today.

Putting all the dishes on the plate with the packed bags, Xiao Ping had already filled Li Yunian's entire desk, and when he went to find Li Yunian, he found that he had already gone to James' desk.

"Xiao Nian, it's time to eat!" Xiao Ping called out in what he thought was the gentlest voice, "The food will be cold if you don't eat any more. I made this at the hotel specially."

Li Yunian glanced at the dishes on his desk, half of them were his favorites, and the other half were matching meat dishes, Li Yunian was surprised that Xiao Ping knew that he liked vegetarian dishes, "You can eat it yourself."

"Xiao Nian, I brought this specially for you, you should eat some at least!" Xiao Ping put on two pairs of bowls and chopsticks. Today he came to "accompany" Li Yu Nian for the festival, so naturally he had to do everything together. "If you don't eat, these dishes can only be wasted. This is the Chinese food cooked in the International Hotel, which is much more expensive than Chinese food."

Xiao Ping knew that Li Yunian was a frugal person, so he said that Li Yunian would not tolerate his waste.

"You buy so much, and you can't finish it. It's a waste." Li Yunian finally fulfilled Xiao Ping's wish. Apart from frugality, he was indeed hungry.

After the meal, the atmosphere between the two of them improved a lot. Sure enough, the dinner table is the most suitable place to exchange feelings.

After eating, Xiao Ping opened two cans of beer, drank one for himself, and passed the other to Li Yunian.

"Xiao Nian, I have been going to see the stars for the past two years." After a few sips, Xiao Ping began to talk, "There is a boy named Li Xin, who is very cute, and Niu Niu, who is very cute and quiet. Quiet, it hurts..."

As if drunk, Xiao Ping kept rambling on and on, as far as Li Yunian could remember, they hadn't talked so much together for a long time, how long was the last time they talked like this?It seems that they are still discussing what birthday gift to give to Mother Xiao, right?

Xiao Ping also felt that he was drunk, and he had only had a few sips of beer, but if he wasn't drunk, why would Li Yunian sit beside him so calmly, answering him twice from time to time?

It's been a long time since I even dreamed of this scene.

Xiao Ping kept talking, not daring to stop, for fear that if he stopped, Li Yunian would leave.
