????Zhou Lin pulled Meng Yi back.

???? Meng Yi's condition looked very bad, his eyes were empty, and he didn't speak. Zhou Lin said worriedly, "I didn't answer your phone calls. I thought you had some accident."

???? Meng Yi shook his head and whispered, "I'm fine."

???? Seeing that Meng Yi didn't want to say more, Zhou Lin didn't ask any more questions, but just turned the umbrella in Meng Yi's direction.

???? The two walked in silence for a while, and when they were about to reach the downstairs of the unit, there was a sudden "woo woo woo" cry from the side of the road.

???? With sharp ears, Zhou Lin immediately stopped and said, "Listen, it seems like a cat is meowing."

???? Meng Yi came back to his senses and asked, "Where is it?"

???? Zhou Lin stuffed the umbrella in Meng Yi's hand, turned on the flash light on his phone, and ran to the side of the road to look for it.

???? As a result, a puppy was found in the trash can.

???? The puppy should have been born not long ago, not much bigger than Zhou Lin's palm, with sparse hair and a sour smell of a trash can.

???? Zhou Lin held the puppies in his hands, and showed them to Meng Yi: "Maybe someone's litter had too many dogs, and they couldn't keep them, so they abandoned them."

???? Hearing this, Meng Yi frowned immediately.

???? "How about we take it back?" Zhou Lin said.

???? Meng Yi simply nodded.

???? Back home, Zhou Lin was afraid that Meng Yi would catch a cold, so he asked him to go to the bathroom to take a bath first, while he took the puppy to the pool outside for a wash.

???? As soon as Meng came out of the shower, the puppy had been washed clean, and the yellow and white coat color could be seen clearly.

???? Zhou Lin put the puppy on the floor, and Meng Yi squatted down with him to watch it.

????The puppy may be a little shy, with its two round eyes wide open, it gurgled around and stared at the two people, and kept barking "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" as if threatening They don't come near.

???? Meng Yi stretched out his fingers and patted its head, and asked Zhou Lin, "Are you going to raise it?"

???? "Yeah, what should I do otherwise, it is so pitiful."

???? Meng Yi said: "Then give it a name."

???? Zhou Lin thought for a while, and said politely: "My name is Zero, and your name is One, so let's call it Two."

???? Meng Yi didn't have any objections, and shouted at the puppy: "Two two."

???? The puppy lay on the ground and let out a desperate "owwow".

????Zhou Lin thought that the name he chose was of a high standard, so he looked at Meng Yi complacently for praise.

???? But Meng Yi didn't notice him, he looked at the puppy without blinking, and there was an indescribable tenderness in his eyes.

???? Zhou Lin was suddenly in a daze, feeling a little different from the Meng Yi he usually saw.

???? "You like it very much?" Zhou Lin asked.

???? "Hmm." Meng Yi said, "It's quite similar to me. I was also picked up by the trash can."

???? Meng Yi's grandma makes a living by selling waste products. She was almost 70 years old when she picked up Meng Yi by the trash can.

???? That day, Grandma Meng was rummaging through the trash cans in the community as usual, and saw a tattered quilt next to the trash can. She lifted it up and found a full-moon-old baby lying inside. .

???? A little milky white doll lay naked under the quilt, quietly biting her fingers and fell asleep. Grandma Meng looked at it a few more times, feeling both fond and distressed.

???? What kind of parents would have the heart to throw away such a cute child?Grandma Meng was very sad.

????She knew very well that it was not easy to support herself with the current situation, and if she added another child, it might be difficult to make ends meet, but she resolutely took the little doll home and named it Meng Yi.

???? Grandma Meng loved Meng Yi as her own grandson, leaving early and returning late every day, desperately selling scraps to raise him.

Grandma Meng didn't tell him about Meng Yi's life experience at the beginning, but since he was in primary school, there are always children around him pointing at him, saying that he was picked up in the trash can, and that he was born with a mother but not a mother keep.

???? Once Xiaomeng heard a lot, he probably knew what was going on.

???? After he went back, he asked Grandma Meng. Grandma Meng wiped her tears and told Xiao Mengyi everything.

???? He touched Grandma Meng's dry and pale hair with his small hand, and said, "I have grandma enough."

???? It may be because of this experience at a very young age, Meng Yi is sensible earlier than other children.

???? In school, classmates often bully him, cover their noses and laugh at the smell of garbage on his clothes, Xiao Mengyi always deliberately ignores it.

????? And in order to prevent grandma from being sad when she finds out, he will tell grandma when he gets home that he has good grades in school and is especially popular with his classmates.

???? After hearing this, grandma would squint her eyes, pat Xiao Mengyi's hand and say, "We are the best one by one."

???? This is Meng Yi's favorite sentence.

???? Meng Yi sat on the ground and shared his story with Zhou Lin softly.

???? He didn't know why he told Zhou Lin these things, but he did it subconsciously. He thought, maybe it was because of the emotion after seeing the puppy.

???? Meng Yi originally thought that Zhou Lin would express his sympathy for him and say some comforting words after listening to it, but he didn't. Zhou Lin lowered his head and patted the puppy's head as usual, and said to it: "Two Two, look, this is you, elder brother, you two are fellow villagers."

???? Meng Yi was caught off guard and was amused. His first smile of the night appeared on his face. He asked Zhou Lin: "I am brother, so what are you?"

???? Zhou Lin said without hesitation, "I am its father."

???? Meng Yi: "..."

????Seeing that Meng Yi's condition has improved compared to just now, Zhou Lin simply took the opportunity to ask one more question: "What happened tonight?"

???? The smile on Meng Yi's face faded quickly, and after a while he said, "Grandma, she may be dying soon."

???? "I stayed with her in the nursing home all day today, but she didn't wake up and couldn't even hear me."

???? Meng Yi sniffed, and there was an imperceptible choke in his voice: "Today is actually my birthday, but I may never hear grandma say happy birthday again."

???? After hearing this, Zhou Lin jumped up from the ground with a "swipe", ran to the refrigerator, and took out the birthday cake he had prepared a long time ago.

????He walked up to Meng Yi with the cake, and before he put in the candles, he couldn't wait to say, "Happy birthday, Yiyi!"

???? Meng Yi looked at the cake in a daze for a long time, and then, the tears that had been accumulated in his eyes for a long time poured out without warning.

???? Zhou Lin was frightened, quickly put down the cake, took out several tissues and handed them to Meng Yi, and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you crying?"

???? Meng Yi took the tissue and covered his face. Tears flowed like an unstoppable faucet. In the end, he could only shake his head and was speechless.

???? After he came out of the nursing home this evening, he wandered around aimlessly outside for a long time. Just like when he was a child, he tried hard to suppress his emotions and not let his tears flow easily.Because he knows that tears will only make those who love him more sad, and make those who read jokes more excited.

???? Over the years, Meng Yi has always believed in this point.

????However, he did not expect that at this moment when the 27th year of his life approached, in front of this person named Zhou Lin, the bravery he had always pretended to be would suddenly become less important.
