In order to prevent the banquet from going wrong, Xiao Ran temporarily picked up a mental patient and asked him to pay a deposit in advance. With this sum of money, Xiao Ran bought another painting, which was a cinnabar painting, and it was definitely a good gift.

At the banquet, the big shots were mingling with each other, while some small people whose names could not be named gathered in twos and threes and chatted in low voices. Everyone was accompanied by some glamorous or gentle beauties, only Xiao Ran was accompanied by a young man who seemed particularly strange .

Even so, Xiao Ran did not forget the idea of ​​treating him. He took him to introduce some well-known figures in business, and all the people who came to the banquet gave the old man a bad attitude. The attitude towards Lin Xiu was okay. Said it was very good.

But in this world, there are always some people who like to sing a naysayer without knowing it, "I heard that the eldest son of the old man of the Xiao family is a gay guy, hey, he probably has a little lover with him, look at that slender figure. It's a woman, I guess I'm going to die on the bed, this hero is too sad for a beauty." A middle-aged man who looked at people with his nostrils looked at Xiao Ran and Lin Xiu mockingly, and the words that came out of his mouth were even more unbearable, his face With an unnatural blush on her upper body, it is obvious that she has drunk a lot of wine.

Some well-informed people already knew that Xiao Ran was carrying Lin Yue's son with him. He kept silent and looked at the scum over there like a clown. He really didn't understand how the old man would give such an important invitation to him. people like that.

In fact, it's fine for them to be dishonest, but Xiao Ran and Mr. Xiao, who were walking and chatting, heard it, and their faces immediately dropped, "This is my little grandson, what do you mean!" This is just one of my patients, I hope you can keep your mouth clean!" Xiao Ran and Mr. Xiao are worthy of being father and son, they both said the words at the same time, and looked at each other in shock after speaking.

But now is not the time for them to sort things out. The middle-aged man was so frightened by the coercion of the two people that he almost woke up from the wine, and his blushing face turned pale. Trembling.

Mr. Xiao has been in the army for so many years, and he hates this kind of spineless person even more, so he was kicked out with a wave of his hand.

What happened was just an episode at the banquet, and many people didn't pay much attention to it. After all, there are so many new families recently, and it's normal for one or two mentally handicapped ones. What they care more about is what Xiao Ran and Mr. Xiao blurted out Two identities.

Mr. Xiao also vaguely knew that he seemed to have misunderstood something, but he still put this matter until after the banquet.

"Grandpa Xiao, this is a gift I prepared for you. Although it is not very expensive, I hope you can accept it." Lin Xiu waited until the right time, and handed the brooch he had prepared to today's old birthday star.

It's just that the expression on Mr. Xiao's face couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy, with a slight sense of distortion, he still took the brooch from Lin Xiu's hand over to save face, and took it apart directly.

Inside the dark red box lies a restrained but gorgeous brooch. Let’s not look at the gemstones on it, but the workmanship is definitely not cheap. It would be great if such a child was really his little grandson. It’s really disappointing stuff.The more he thought about it, the more angry the old man glared at Xiao Ran, then he put on the brooch directly, and pampered his head.

Everyone in the audience clapped their hands. Only Xiao Ran felt baffled. He didn't know how to offend the old man. Without thinking too much, Xiao Ran took out the cinnabar painting he had prepared temporarily from the box and touched it with both hands. Give it to the old man.

The old man snatched the painting from his hand, and opened the painting with a cold snort. The painting made of cinnabar looked extraordinarily delicate, and the red bamboo forest and maple leaves revealed a different sense of beauty. The old man couldn't pick out such a unique gift. , Putting his gift aside, it is obvious that the gap between him and Lin Xiu came out.

The people around each had their own little calculations in their hearts, but these were not within Xiao Ran's thinking, and the people around also offered congratulatory gifts one after another, and the banquet was held happily.

After the banquet was over, Xiao Ran didn't want to see his old face here, so he simply took Lin Xiu away. Before he could reach the door, the old man called him back, "Stop! Don't you want to make this matter clear?"

The old man who has been in power all the year round looks calm and self-threatening, which made Xiao Ran stop unconsciously. Xiao Ran turned around and looked at him helplessly. Standing beside him were Xiao Yue and Xiao Qing who looked like guardians on the left and right. I was almost amused by my own brain.

"I don't know what else is there?" Xiao Ran held Lin Xiu's hand and stood at the door, the two of them stood together in harmony, Xiao Yue and Xiao Qing looked at this brother enviously, they dreamed of escaping from the control of the old man , but unless they go abroad to a place where the old man can't reach, they will be punished sooner or later.

The old man has not been disobeyed for a long time, let alone talking to him like this, his face immediately turned black and blue. It was because Lin Xiu didn't want the two of them to have a particularly stiff fight, so he stretched out his hand and shook Xiao Ran's arm to signal him to speak Be careful, this way Xiao Ran's attitude softened a bit.

"Brother, don't be angry with Dad. It's not like you don't know what kind of temper Dad has." Xiao Qing stretched out her hand to help the old man to calm down. As the old man's daughter, she still has a certain right to speak at home, the old man heard Xiao Qing's face was a little relaxed when she spoke for herself.

"What's the matter with this child?" The old man asked, staring at Lin Xiufa, who was obediently holding his hand, Xiao Ran put his hand on his forehead and said to the old man: "He is one of my patients, with autism and depression He has gotten better recently, and he is Lin Yue's child."

Hearing the word Lin Yue, the old man couldn't hold his walking stick tightly, and his eyes widened. Lin Xiu was worried that he would stare his eyes out. Did Lin Yue have a deep hatred for them?Why does the old man look like he can't believe it.

Although Lin Xiu knew that Xiao Ran had come out because of his 'father', he didn't think in that direction.Xiao Ran can now figure out what the old man is thinking. "You bastard!" The old man hit the ground hard with his cane, his eyes were as big as goldfish.

Xiao Ran is not in the mood to listen to his lectures here, if he has this time, he might as well go home and watch TV on the sofa, Xiao Ran ignored the old man, turned around and left with Lin Xiu, the old man was so angry that his chest heaved up and down very violently, The old man threw the crutch over angrily.

Chapter 270 Eighth Peaceful Daily Life

The old man didn't know whether it was because of lack of strength in his hand or because he missed the throw. Instead of hitting Xiao Ran, he flew straight towards Lin Xiu. Lin Xiu, who was hit by the fish pond, didn't react at first, he was stunned until pain came from his forehead. Only then did I realize that I was smashed.

A closer look shows that the decoration on the top of the old man's crutches accidentally scratched his forehead, but it's okay to say, the most important thing is that this slight pain reminded Lin Xiu of the dark time of the original body, and his dark mood gradually faded away. Lin Xiu knew that he couldn't get sick from here, but he couldn't stop it at all. Later, Lin Xiu simply stopped and let the negative emotions reverberate in his chest, taking advantage of this time to brush up his favorability.

Lin Xiumu stared blankly at the blood in his hands, as if he hadn't reacted, his face gradually became paler and paler, Xiao Ran knew what was wrong with him with his toes, so he quickly squatted down and hugged him tightly, One is to give him a sense of security, and the other is to prevent him from hurting himself.

Lin Xiu raised his head and looked at Xiao Ran dumbly, and said two words lightly, "It hurts..." The simple two words seemed to gouge out Xiao Ran's heart. After getting along for so long, he couldn't help but feel sorry for this accidental and clever boy. I still like it very much.

"It hurts...it hurts, woo woo, don't hit me, I didn't do anything wrong..." Lin Xiu muttered, his eyes lost their luster. This situation frightened him, and he suddenly remembered that Xiao Ran said that he has autism and depression, and the slap by the old man just now obviously touched his bad side.

Xiao Yue didn't dare to delay and quickly called the ambulance, fearing that something might happen to Lin Xiu, Xiao Ran who was holding Lin Xiu suddenly turned his eyes sharply, "Don't call the ambulance, he is not suitable for this situation now." After finishing speaking, she hugged tightly Watching Lin Xiu go out, Xiao Ran's stern look made Xiao Yue subconsciously cut off the phone and looked at his back as he left.

The old man sat slumped on the chair, and his mind was still replaying the look that Xiao Ran gave him when he just left. It was the expression he had when he left last time. It had been several years since he left the last time. Now he can still wait How many years?With my old bones, why did I get angry at that time!The old man's heart was suddenly filled with regret.

Xiao Ran didn't know all of this, looking down at the young man in his arms, his helplessness turned into heartache. He originally thought that he would be able to change his bad habit of attacking every now and then when he came back this time, but he didn't expect that after so many years, not only did he not change it, but he even made it worse. up.

Feeling his gentle embrace, Lin Xiu's dull eyes gradually became brighter, at least he didn't look so panicked, Lin Xiu rubbed all the blood on his head onto Xiao Ran's clothes, his face Still in tears, I don't know what kind of fight happened.

Xiao Ran, who was being rubbed by him, lowered his head, shook his head helplessly and let him wipe his tears and blood on his clothes, and hugged him even tighter with both hands. It's really not easy for the half-grown boy to be picked up by the princess. After putting Lin Xiu on the bed, Xiao Ran reached out and wiped away the tears on his face.

"With me here, when you are sad, think about me, do you understand?" After speaking, Xiao Ran gently kissed Lin Xiu's forehead, and felt a little wrong when the kiss was over. It was just a etiquette in the United States, but this is Conservative China, I hope this child will not think too much.Xiao Ran scratched his head in embarrassment, the ideological work that should be done still needs to be done.

"Everyone has times when they are in a bad mood, but there are more times when they are in a bad mood. This is not wrong at all. Don't block these mistakes on yourself." Xiao Ran has seen too many depression patients blame themselves, and they don't It's not that they are depressed all the time, they are the same as normal people when they are awake, but once they get emotional, they can't control it, and their family members don't understand that they always tell them, 'Go for a walk, see Just look at the scenery. '

'Why are you so squeamish? You're not a girl. If you're unhappy, just have a drink. If you don't understand like this, gradually the patient will feel that he is too hypocritical, and the harder he suppresses his mood, the stronger the rebound will be.

"I see, thank you." Lin Xiu lowered his head in embarrassment. Since Xiao Ran kissed his forehead, Lin Xiu has always been like this. Lin Xiu's appearance made Xiao Ran feel a little uncomfortable, so he coughed and drove back. home.

Back home, it was already pitch black. Lin Xiu wanted to wash his hair first, and his hair was already covered with his own blood. He didn't expect that he would be pressed down by Xiao Ran to treat the wound just after he took off a shirt. "Do you know that if the wound is not cleaned in time, it will leave a scar? Or do you want to wear this small scar to show that this is your man's medal?"

While dealing with the wound, he made plausible words. This made Lin Xiu lower his head, just in time to see the tear and blood stains on his chest, which reminded Lin Xiu of the embarrassment just now.

Finally, after waiting for the wound to be treated, Lin Xiu said in a muffled voice, "Go and change your clothes." Xiao Ran looked down again and saw that it was already unsightly, just like the one who just came out of the murder scene.

After Lin Xiu and Xiao Ran had cleaned themselves up, they were about to have a heart-to-heart talk, when a voice came from the square next door, "The boundless sky is my love..." The familiar square dancing lady started to play music, and Xiao Ran was about to enlighten him Stopped talking, looked at Lin Xiu's sober eyes and laughed at himself, and said to him: "Come on, let's go and see the square dancers."

Lin Xiu hesitated for a while, but followed him. The two walked on the path leading to the square, one behind the other. There were still crickets on the surrounding grass, and Lin Xiu's heart slowly relaxed. .

"Don't blame him, he was actually very good when I was young, at least he was a qualified soldier and a qualified husband, but he was not a qualified father." When Xiao Ran talked about the past when he was a child, he did not feel any discomfort lightly, making Lin He looked sideways at his cultivation base.

He thought for a while and smiled, "I want to hear about your life in the United States, okay? How about it now?" Lin Xiu's voice, which had just entered the voice-changing period, was still a little ethereal, making Xiao Ran's footsteps pause slightly.

"Life in the United States can be said to be the freest, but it is also the most painful." After finishing speaking, they stopped talking, and the two of them also followed the path to the square.

The white streetlights shone on Xiao Ran's body, making him look like a giant, Lin Xiu blinked, what kind of giant, he would always be him, Lin Xiu trotted to his side and quietly looked at the aunts in the square.
