A young master lives downstairs in my house

If time could turn the clock back,

I'll give the me of last week a warning and I'll slap the me of the present.

Yes, after returning home that day, I repeatedly warned myself not to contact Xiao Danran again.

At this moment, I am walking with him on the way to the supermarket.

No, it's not "and", it's "accompanied", plus the word "forced".

Did you learn materialist dialectics in middle school?

So who I am today is not who I was yesterday.

is a fallacy,

don't listen.

The thing is like this, at about seven or eight o'clock this morning, I was holding a quilt, wrapped in a hot water bottle and turned on the heater. In such a comfortable environment, I slept soundly.

I don't believe in such things as biological clocks. It must be normal for me to sleep until I wake up naturally on weekends.

I also don't believe in the theory that staying up late is a chronic suicide. How can it be called racing against time if you don't stay up late at a young age?

In short, I hate getting up early on weekends.

However, the continuous knocking on the door made me have to open my eyelids.

The structure of my house is like this, one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen, with a small balcony attached.The residential buildings in the old city are small and the old houses are poor. The key point is that the sound insulation is poor, but because most of the residents are sixty-year-olds, their ears are not good.It’s hard for a good young man like me in society, for example, being woken up by someone moving furniture across the wall.

I opened one eye, reached for the earplugs in the bedside table, and was about to put them on.

"bang bang bang"

The movement outside the door was terrifying.

That person actually started knocking on the door?

I frowned and thought about the date of the last rent payment, and continued to sleep after I figured it out.

"Lin An!! Are you at home??"

"Lin An!!"

"..."

Gee.

It was the voice of the boy downstairs.

I thought to myself that if he kept knocking, the whole building would suspect that I had borrowed a loan shark.

The outermost iron door opened outwards. I knew Du Ming in my heart, so I used some force to open the door.As expected, Xiao Danran became hoarse.

Because you have to cover your nose.

I watched him squatting and holding his nose condescendingly, and my mood improved for the most part.

He put on a knitted sweater and didn't even wear a coat, looking like he came in a hurry.

After a while, the man touched his nose and stood up after making sure it was not crooked.

"I thought something happened to you at home? No one answered the door."

I:"…………"

Then I still want to thank you for your brave actions?

Ruled out a citizen crash case?

"what happened?"

For the sake of having a cold drink from his house, I still made a symbolic inquiry.

After all, he seemed really in a hurry.

"Ah, can I ask you to do me a favor?"

Xiao Danran didn't seem to see the death-defying expression on my face, and continued with a smile:

"Can you scramble an egg for me?"

I:"……"

what?

After a long time, I reconfirmed through the serious expression on his face that he was not joking or finding fault.

"...Mr. Xiao, we don't seem to know each other that well."

I politely declined.

"We are already very familiar with each other in the elevator every day."

"..."

Oh.

yes.

Don't you notice that every time I see you, I subconsciously press the elevator door to close quickly.

"Then I'll go down and wait for you first, the door downstairs is not closed yet." Xiao Danran turned around and pressed the elevator after finishing speaking.

When I realized it, I could only watch helplessly as the elevator doors closed.

I found that idioms that I couldn't remember the meaning of in middle school are very clear in my mind at this moment:

Out of season.

How strong is this surname Xiao's ability to find trouble?

I straightened my hair that was curled up while I was sleeping, and went back to the room to change my clothes. I planned to see what was going on. It shouldn't be as simple as scrambled eggs.

Maybe he was kidnapped?

I thought of a movie I watched a while ago. A girl who lived alone was imprisoned by the kidnapper for several days. Once the girl was released to buy vegetables, the kidnapper followed her, so she could only be rescued by giving tips to others.

Maybe it is...

But he is such a big man, half a head taller than me...

With that in mind, I still thought about it seriously.

When Xiao Danran opened the door and saw the kitchen knife in my hand, as expected, she showed an expression of surprise, but immediately felt disappointed again, her mouth curled into a line.

My heart trembled, can't the kitchen knife handle it?

I don't know how to fight. Is it too late to call the police? I reached for the cell phone in my trouser pocket with my free hand.

Xiao Danran looked at me with regret: "Although I don't know how to cook, I didn't expect you to know too. I know that scrambled eggs don't need a kitchen knife."

Hard work pays off.

I clenched the kitchen knife tightly in my hand. The kitchen knife can't cut down bad guys, but it can cut down the brainless person in front of me.

Cut the weeds and eradicate the roots to avoid future social troubles.

Xiao Danran probably saw the murderous intent in my eyes, and took a step back.

"You... Will you be fired, or will this young master call someone else?"

When I got mad, he reacted,

"Uh, what I mean is, if you don't know how to fry, I'll find someone to teach you~ Your fried food must be very delicious."

"How old are you?" I held the kitchen knife in one hand and leaned against the door looking at him.

"...23." He took another step back.

23...

I squinted my eyes, this young master is very arrogant, he is two years younger than me.

Forget it, respect the old and love the young.

I waved him off and went into the kitchen to scramble an egg for the poor kid.

When I entered the kitchen, I rolled up my sleeves, grabbed the spatula, and found more than one problem.

"The eggs are at the side, ready to beat." Xiao Danran poked his head out from the outside, kindly reminding.

"It's not an egg." I frowned,

"Where's the oil???"

"Uh, yes."

He was also taken aback, then touched his nose in embarrassment,

"where?"

he tilted his head,

"At the mall?"

"........."

I threw the spatula away.

……

……

A few minutes later, Xiao Danran decided to go to the supermarket, yes, it was him, not me, nor us.

As for why one person's comedy eventually turned into two people's tragedy,

I had a fierce resistance, I turned around silently and left, and incidentally blocked the noise from him.

"You... you, your bicycle, isn't it broken? The axle is broken! I can fix it! I'll fix it for you!"

He grabbed my arm and his eyes were bright.

I:"……"

He continued: "Free!"

Me: "Free?"

He: "My young master is not short of that little money!"

Me: "Hehe, your young master can also repair bicycles?"

He lifted his chin proudly after listening,

"Versatile."

……

For the sake of cycling, I decided to kindly lead him the way.After all, the location here is remote, apart from old men and old ladies, or married people, repairing bicycles?There are not many cyclists, okay?

I also don't want to get up early every day to catch a car.

The community is located in the old city, and the only traffic route leading to the outside world is the bridge at the gate.

Yes, the one that hurt me badly.

I followed Xiao Danran and walked side by side. In the early morning, many old men and old ladies came down for a walk and walked together on the green path. There were melodious birds chirping all around, one after another, it seemed that this couple was loving and harmonious.

After walking for a while, I noticed that the atmosphere between us was a bit strange, so I deliberately slowed down my pace.

So I followed Xiao Dan and the two of them walked one after the other.

I suddenly felt a little sad, being gay is really tiring, not only tired of status, but also easy to think too much.

Xiao Danran didn't respond, and continued to walk forward.

Looking at his tall and straight back, I actually thought for a moment that this young man in the second year of middle school was so handsome.

Must be an illusion.

In less than 1 minute, the reality told me: Yes, it is your illusion.

We were about to walk out of the gate of the community one after the other, and I vaguely felt that something was wrong, so I called the person in front to stop,

"Xiao Danran, where is your car parked?"

The man turned around to look at me, and said confidently, "I don't have a car."

As the young master, you don't even have a car?

Seeing this housework idiot in the early morning, I almost believed it!

In the end, he was still a sophomore.

What's even more tragic is that just as we were arguing, a bus passed by the gate of the community.

"..."

There are buses in the old town, one bus at each stop, and one bus per hour.

I gritted my teeth: "You don't even have a car, how do you get out?"

"I don't usually go out," Xiao Danran thought seriously, "I think we can walk."

So two big men, in the winter, with the cold wind blowing, realized the span of life on a bridge.

Why don't I turn around and leave?

Ha ha.

He clamped Lao Tzu's arm, okay?

The strength can be felt even through the thick coat.

I was blown expressionless by the wind, and I didn't want to speak. I was dragged uphill by him like a marionette.

Xiao Danran was as excited as a child on a spring outing for the first time, having fun climbing every slope.

Panting, he said to me, "This is the first time...the first time I have crossed this kind of bridge, and there is still no sidewalk."

I closed my eyes, don't talk about you, it's my first time too.

Miserable.

"Actually, it's not that I don't have a car, I just... just keep a low profile!"

"..."

Yes, I think of a sentence I read on the Internet before, the richer the person, the more low-key, you never know how much wealth he has behind him.

So by this logic, am I richer than him?

Although I am walking on the bridge against the cold wind,

But the richer you are, the more low-key you are like me,

Who would have thought that although I am walking here with difficulty, there is actually a bicycle behind me?

And Xiao Danran?

Ha ha,

He's the guy who fixes my bike.
