Excessive deviation

This was Zhong Shitian's unprecedented despair. He couldn't even utter the words of begging for mercy. Most of Zhao Shuyao's weight was on his chest. He could barely breathe, so he could only hold Zhao Shuyao in pain. Distant sleeves, making tiny and futile struggles.

Zhao Shuyao seemed to have a scarlet evil spirit, like Shura walking out of the painting.In this confrontation, there is no way of development other than hands-on.

"Shi Tian! Come down and do me a favor, this is too tight and I can't unscrew it." Jiang Ru shouted downstairs.

This was a sound of redemption, because Zhao Shuyao let go of Zhong Shitian after hearing it, stood up straight and looked at him.

Zhong Shitian seemed to be born again, and sat up with his face flushed. He blocked his chest, where the pain was still severe, and he suspected that his bones were cracked.

Zhao Shuyao didn't speak.

Zhong Shitian lowered his head and breathed with difficulty. He blinked hard a few times before saying, "I'm sorry, I offended you with my rude words. I apologize to you. I'm sorry."

Zhao Shuyao still didn't speak.

Zhong Shitian stopped talking, he stood up, but because his legs were weak, he sat down halfway in embarrassment, this embarrassment broke all his defenses, he couldn't help sobbing, but immediately held back, stood up hard Get up and walk out of the room quickly.

"What do you want to screw?" Zhong Shitian walked to the kitchen and asked in a low voice.

"It's useless for me to pry this bottle of cooking wine with a knife," Jiang Ru said.

Zhong Shitian took it and twisted it, but he didn't unscrew it. His hand trembled as if it had failed, and he couldn't use any force.

Jiang Ru watched her son fail several times, and asked, "What's the matter, baby, it's too tight and can't be unscrewed?"

"No." Zhong Shitian shook his head, his voice was very nasal, "I can unscrew it."

"Baby?" Jiang Ru frowned, holding up Zhong Shitian's face, "What's wrong with you? Why is your face so bad? Your eyes are also red."

"It's okay." Zhong Shitian turned his face away unnaturally, then lowered his head again, and concentrated on twisting the cooking wine bottle, "The onion smell in the kitchen is so strong, my eyes are irritated."

"Don't lie, you can't hide it from mom," Jiang Ru said.

Zhong Shitian was silent for two seconds, then raised his head and said with a playful smile: "Okay, okay, let me tell you the truth, just now I played a game with Zhao Shuyao, he was so good that he wouldn't let me, and I lost in just a short while." Five times, I was so angry that I wanted to cry, it's too embarrassing for you to tell me."

"Little good-for-nothing." Jiang Ru pinched his face with a smile, "When will I grow up?"

Zhong Shitian finally unscrewed it, and showed Jiang Ru the result, "Well, I've grown up."

Jiang Ru shook her head helplessly, took the cooking wine and continued cooking.

Zhong Shitian returned to the living room and saw Zhao Shuyao also came down, he sat upright as if nothing had happened.Zhong Shitian paused for a moment, turned around and went upstairs without going over.

An hour after dinner started, Zhong Shitian's father, Zhong Pingbei, also came home from get off work. He was also startled when he saw Zhao Shuyao, and recognized him.

"So many years have passed in a flash, and you were only so tall at that time." Zhong Pingbei smiled and gestured, "Now you are all grown up."

"That's right, when I was young, I always followed Shi Tian, ​​and Shi Tian's brother Shi Tian called me." Jiang Ru said, and took a piece of tender fish for Zhao Shuyao.

Zhong Shitian lowered his head and took small bites to eat. Hearing this, his fingers tightened, and he slightly raised his eyes to look at Zhao Shuyao.

Zhao Shuyao's expression didn't change, he just said thank you.

"Why does the relationship seem unfamiliar now? They still sit so far away." Zhong Pingbei said, the two of them sat side by side, but there was a distance of two seats between them.

"I move a lot when I eat, and I'm afraid of bumping into him." Zhong Shitian said.

"Seeing how these two children have grown up, it really feels like time flies by. We are all getting old." Jiang Ru sighed.

"You are still as young and beautiful as ten years ago." Zhao Shuyao said gently.

Jiang Ru giggled, "The mouth is so sweet, come, eat a big chicken drumstick."

Zhong Pingbei said: "Shuyao is too skinny. Now is the boy's developmental stage. How can he be so thin? It would be great if I could give you ten catties of Shi Tian's flesh."

Zhong Shitian said sullenly: "Father, don't say that." He was worried that Zhao Shuyao was concerned, after all, getting involved with him would only arouse Zhao Shuyao's resentment.

Zhong Pingbei said: "Baby is angry? Dad apologizes, my son's meat is the cutest, there is nothing less."

"I'm not angry anymore." Zhong Shitian said, I was just afraid that that person would get angry, alas.

Zhao Shuyao didn't express his opinion, he ate quietly, with a dignified and elegant demeanor, he was the kind of good boy that people admired.

This meal ended with the joy and harmony created by Zhong's parents.

After the meal, Jiang Ru found a large and thick photo album, and called Zhao Shuyao and Zhong Shitian to his side, "Come, let's see you when you were young."

Zhong Shitian didn't want to go there at all, but Zhong Pingbei embraced his shoulders enthusiastically, and he was taken there anyway.

"Look at this." Jiang Ru pointed to the two white and tender children in the photo, the round one looks like a glutinous rice ball, the smile on his face is heart-warming, and the one beside the glutinous rice balls; the other is like a delicate porcelain doll, shy looking at the camera.

"This is the first time Shuyao came to our house to take pictures. It's so beautiful. No wonder Shitian always thought that Shuyao was a girl." Jiang Ru said with a smile.

Zhong Shitian bowed his head in silence, he seemed to hear Zhao Shuyao's inaudible ridicule.

"Also Zhang, Shuyao is a picky eater and doesn't eat fruit, so she eats it as soon as Shitian is fed." Jiang Ru said, the two children in the photo seem to be getting closer and closer, with glutinous rice balls on a fork feeding an apple to the porcelain doll, The mouth opens to say "Ah", the porcelain doll opens its mouth to bite the apple, and the picture freezes at this moment.

"This is a kindergarten athlete. You two are three-legged."

"And sleep, haha, holding hands."

"Shitian, this is you helping Shuyao tie his shoelaces, you will always help Shuyao after you learn how to tie your shoelaces, do you remember?"

Zhong Shitian stared blankly at those photos with a sense of age. The two children were like siblings who had never been separated. In almost half of the photos, they were holding hands, with bright smiles and carefree happiness.It turned out that he and Zhao Shuyao had such a good time.

Turning to the end of the photo, Jiang Ru asked: "Shi Tian, ​​after seeing so many photos, do you remember your childhood?"

Zhong Shitian pursed his lips and shook his head slightly, "I still...don't really remember."

In an instant, he felt a sharp gaze like an ice front shooting towards him.

"That's right, you haven't seen each other for ten years, which is equivalent to half your life." Zhong Pingbei joked.

Jiang Ru closed the photo album and took out another one. She looked at Zhao Shuyao, "Shuyao, do you want to see your mother's photo?"

Zhao Shuyao was taken aback for a moment, then nodded: "I want to see it."

"Your mother, Masako, is truly a beauty in a million." Jiang Ru said while opening the photo album, "So I always liked to take pictures of her at that time, and fortunately my little hobby can leave so many memories."

The woman in the photo is elegant and beautiful, with long black and thick hair, graceful and graceful, wearing a simple white dress like a holy goddess, with bright eyes full of water, gentle and compassionate.

Zhao Shuyao's eyes didn't blink for a moment, like a mirror, faintly flickering. He touched the person in the photo cherishingly, and his voice was slightly choked with sincerity: "Thank you for allowing me to see my mother."

Zhong Shitian looked at Zhao Shuyao, there was no expression of forbearance on his face, nor was it a crying expression, but his eyes could not deceive anyone, Zhao Shuyao was crying, even though there were no tears on the surface, but he must be sad in his heart .

He suddenly felt distressed, but he couldn't say or do anything, he could only watch quietly.

"Would you like to visit your mother tomorrow?" Zhong Pingbei asked, "She said she likes a quiet place with beautiful mountains and rivers, where you can hear birds singing, so after she left, we took her to her hometown .”

"Okay." Zhao Shuyao said softly, "I really don't deserve to be her son, and I haven't even offered her a stick of incense."

"Shuyao, don't say that." Jiang Ru pressed Zhao Shuyao's shoulder, "You are Masako's favorite person, if she knows you say such things, she will be sad."

"Yeah." Zhao Shuyao smiled bitterly, "You're right."

From the beginning to the end, Zhong Shitian didn't speak, and his eyes never left Zhao Shuyao. After talking about his mother, he revealed the soft and fragile Zhao Shuyao, which made him want to touch Zhao Shuyao's head for some reason, or... ...hug him.

"Aunt Jiang, can you give me a photo?" Zhao Shuyao asked expectantly.

Jiang Ru rubbed his hair, put the whole photo album into his arms, "Take it."

"Thank you." Zhao Shuyao sincerely appreciated.

"Really not staying? Is it alright if you are alone there?" Jiang Ru asked worriedly.

"It's okay, I'm used to it." Zhao Shuyao said with a smile, he got up and bowed politely: "Thank you for your hospitality, I'll go back first."

Jiang Ru sent him to the door, "It's so late, it's not safe to be alone, I'll see you off."

"I'm fine. You've worked hard all day today, so I really can't bother you." Zhao Shuyao said.

"I'll send him off." Zhong Shitian said.

Zhao Shuyao frowned invisibly.

"By the way, let's go to the supermarket." Zhong Shitian changed his shoes, "Let's go."

"Then pay attention to safety, Shuyao, and call me when you get home." Jiang Ru said.

"Okay." Zhao Shuyao was gentle and polite, but as soon as the door was closed, all friendship disappeared. He looked at Zhong Shitian coldly, "Sorry, I don't like to walk with strangers."

Zhong Shitian said: "Then I will walk behind you and won't bother you."

Zhao Shuyao snorted coldly, turned around and left.

Zhong Shitian kept a distance of two meters from him all the way, and they were like strangers one after the other.

Until walking into the dark intersection of Rongchang Road, all the hustle and bustle of traffic was isolated behind him, Zhong Shitian said: "I will not bother you anymore."

Zhao Shuyao paused briefly.

"I won't strike up a conversation with you, I won't give you things, and I won't meddle in other's business. I won't do any of the things you hate." Zhong Shitian said to himself, "This is not to let you It doesn't matter if you continue to hate me, continue to hate me."

"I will do what you say, just be a stranger."

"Actually, this is what you really want. I only understand now. I'm so stupid. I'm sorry."

Zhong Shitian stopped two meters away, "Your home is here, then I'll go, goodbye."

Zhong Shitian turned around and left. Zhao Shuyao couldn't see the pained and crying expression on his face.

And he couldn't see that Zhao Shuyao's fingers holding the photo album were turning white and purple.
