2.

At that time, my father fled in a hurry to avoid sanctions, and then he chose to commit suicide and his reputation was ruined. My mother was imprisoned and sentenced to a long sentence because of her involvement in the case.Everything that should have been confiscated at home was confiscated. I was homeless for a while, and fell from the clouds into the mud in a blink of an eye.

All the smiling faces that greeted me in the past have disappeared without a trace, and they should be avoided.Maybe some of them have also made trouble, who knows.

I tried to contact my uncle, his twin sons were laughing in the background, the call was answered by my aunt, she told me tactfully but clearly that they were unable to take care of me, but they could give me some money to tide me over, I calmly declined and hung up Telephone.

When I went back to school, the public and private discussions grew wildly. I was probably surprised that I could come to class as if nothing had happened because of my face;

I just thought I was deaf to the bad words, and I smiled and refused to the prying, put on thick armor, straightened my spine and looked like I didn't care, but in fact my heart was chaotic and at a loss.

At that time, I really wished that time could fast forward, preferably the next moment was high school graduation ceremony, and I desperately wanted to change to a new environment and escape from all this old people and old things.

Gu Weixi, Jing Yun and I were best friends before that.

After the accident at home, I felt that I was not qualified to be friends with them, so I consciously kept my distance.

But I don't know why, they are still the same as before, and their attitude towards me has not changed at all, as if nothing has happened.

But later, Gu Weixi, a guy who couldn't hide his thoughts, still couldn't help asking privately if he could help me, his cautious tone seemed to be afraid of hurting my self-esteem.Jing Yun was standing next to him and looking at me, it's rare that he wasn't fooling around.

I smiled and said not yet, if there is, I will speak.

At that time, Gu Weixi looked at me worriedly, then gave me a warm hug, and patted my back lightly: "Xiao Si, there are us."

Only then did Jing Yun show his signature smile, and stepped forward to embrace both of us with arms wide open.

He said solemnly, "Come on, Xiao Si."

After that hug, Gu Weixi gave me a lot of help and care. He may not be aware of his energy, but in my heart, he shines on me like a gentle sun, dispelling my loneliness and anxiety. hesitated.

Among all my friends, I have always liked his character the most. He is kind, gentle, tolerant, and reassuring.

It was only later that I gradually realized that the affection turned into love - long before my family fell into ruin.I'm glad that before the accident, I never thought of showing my heart, and after that, I don't want to disturb Gu Weixi.

……

Over the years, Gu Weixi and Jing Yun have always rushed to solve the housing problem for me.

First, Gu Weixi directly took me back to his house to live for a while, his parents still warmly welcomed me, as if I was still the same guest as before, but I felt so stressed that I was so reserved that I wanted to shrink back.

Later I realized that what the Gus and his wife cared about was Gu Weixi's mood rather than my fate. They welcomed me only because they doted on Weixi and couldn't bear to destroy their son's determination to do good deeds.They looked at me like looking at those stray animals that Gu Weixi picked up and brought home.

In order to make her son happier, Mrs. Gu also proposed in front of Gu Weixi that the couple would support my studies.Gu Weixi was really happy when he heard that, he held my hand and persuaded me to accept his parents' kindness.

I absent-mindedly nodded and said thank you Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu.

In this way, I stayed at Gu's house for a while, and then Jing Yun took advantage of being a "lonely left-behind child" and joked with Gu Weixi, asking me to live in his house.

His parents have been abroad for many years, and they only returned to the country occasionally. At that time, Jing Yun's elder brother was still studying abroad. Apart from the nanny and servants, he was really the only one living in the Jing family's mansion, which was extremely clean. .

I asked Jing Yun: "Is it really lonely that my family is not around often?"

The corners of Jing Yun's mouth are naturally slightly upturned, and he smiles three-pointedly even when he doesn't smile. When he smiles, his eyes bend together: "Hahaha, I'm trying to fool Weixi's nerd! I've been used to it for a long time, and I don't feel anything. And no one cares, it’s very free, I like it.”

I laughed too, and told him frankly, "I feel much more relaxed without adults around."

Jing Yun winked at me triumphantly: "Really~"

"For example, no one cares if I stay up late to watch the stars—" He smiled mysteriously, raising one eyebrow, "I'm going to feed the mosquitoes on the terrace tonight for the Perseid meteor shower, will you come?"

As it turned out later, I was attracting mosquitoes enough to make those around me very safe.

Jing Yun and I had no choice but to escape from the roof ahead of time in the strong smell of mosquito repellent, and with the help of Jing Yun laughing unscrupulously, we smeared a lot of anti-itch ointment on our bodies full of resentment.

……

Since the beginning of college, I have taken the dormitory as my home, and I try to stay in school during holidays.

In the first year, I tried to do some odd jobs to earn living expenses. In my sophomore year, I switched to tutoring, working two jobs at the same time. During the holidays, I was tutoring during the day and working in bars at night.

Remuneration, tips and scholarships are enough for me to cover my tuition and daily expenses, so I declined the continued support of the Gu couple with a grateful attitude, and stated that I would try my best to repay it in the future.

After Gu Weixi knew it, he frowned and said in disapproval that I had worked so hard like this, and his parents didn't want me to repay it - his parents had already told me this - the Gu family really didn't care about these small money.I smiled and replied to Gu Weixi, it is because of this that I deserve to be ashamed, and I am more at ease if I can rely on myself.

Jing Yun didn't pick up on this topic, instead he put my shoulders on my shoulders and let me celebrate the Spring Festival with him this year.His parents had already returned to China ahead of schedule to get together with their two sons, and asked Jing Yun if he would accompany them to Country X to celebrate the New Year this year. Jing Yun said that he was too lazy, so the couple left in style. In the city, he would accompany his grandparents who lost their independence, and Jing Yun became a loner again.

I took the conversation graciously, and half-jokingly said: "That's good, I am obliged to give warmth to the left-behind children."

Gu Weixi shook his head helplessly: "Why don't you both come to my house to celebrate the New Year."

I smiled awkwardly and didn't speak.

Jing Yun smiled and said, "No, you probably have too many guests to greet you, so why should we make trouble?"

Gu Weixi sighed regretfully.
