Lu Xingyin looked at him with clean eyes, his lips moved, but what he said softly was not the word "brother", but:

"Gu Fangwei."

There was a faint smile on his lips, and the tips of his ears were red.On cloudy and rainy days, I can't see clearly, only the eyes shining under the dim umbrella.

Gu Fangwei had never seen someone so obedient and easy to bully, so he almost laughed: "Okay, don't bark if you don't bark."

He took him into the car and gave the driver an address.The driver of Huo's family obviously knew him very well, and it didn't take long for him to arrive in a roundabout way.

"Should I take you home later or let the driver wait for you?" Gu Fangwei took out a handful of coins from nowhere, and tossed them as he wished, jingling, "The only way to take you off is by bus."

Lu Xingyin said, "Go back to school."

Gu Fangwei was stunned for a moment: "What are you going back for?"

"Study." Lu Xingyin thought for a while, and added, "Recite English."

Gu Fang looked at him incredulously, "Little calculator, it's only Sunday morning, and you still have a day and a half off. Just recite English?"

But he didn't care too much: "Then you can go back with me in a while, and live in the house I rented. The dormitory has no heating for the past two days, and it's cold."

Lu Xingyin obediently followed behind him.

He brought him to a private restaurant, which was not considered exquisite and luxurious. The yellow wooden tables had been arranged in a gorgeous and shiny manner, the lights were warm yellow, and the walls were mottled.

There are no customers on rainy days, the boss is a society man with a flower tattoo on his arm, obviously he is very familiar with Gu Fangwei, he said with a smirk: "Hey, rare customers, come and sit at the old place, and bring your little girlfriend over to play ?”

Before Gu Fangwei spoke, the boss saw Lu Xingyin behind him clearly, and quickly changed his words: "Oh——little boyfriend."

Gu Fangwei took Lu Xingyin back in a calm manner, sneered, and glanced at her peach blossom eyes: "Talking about the train, when did I bring my girlfriend here?"

"Hey, the little beauty at the end of last year, with long curly hair and big eyes, was such an obedient girl, dare you say that? Why is it a new taste now, instead of a beautiful little girl, she brings a beautiful little brother instead, which can be regarded as keeping up with the times ..."

The boss skillfully handed Gu Fangwei a cigarette, and then asked Lu Xingyin: "Little brother, do you want it? Let me tell you, it will be hard to follow him. He doesn't hurt people, he only attracts people." butterfly."

Gu Fangwei said: "You are the only one who knows how to fart, and don't talk too much. This is my brother, and I want to treat him like my own brother."

"Oh, brother!" The boss was in awe, he laughed and scratched his head, and quickly changed his words: "I'm sorry, little brother, I was joking. If you want me to say, Gu Fang still hurts his younger siblings because of this person..."

Lu Xingyin took the cigarette.

He had never seen such smoke.

In his impression, the men in Dongtong City smoked cigarettes with yellow heads and white tails, and all kinds of cigarette cases were placed in green glass cabinets.The cigarette in front of me is very beautiful, mint green, slender and beautiful.

It was the first time he knew that Gu Fangwei smoked.

Walking up the stairs, the dim lights shone overhead, and the pattern of the carpet was old but clean.

Gu Fangwei walked faster than him and said, "Go ahead and wait."

Holding a mint green cigarette between his slender fingertips, Gu Fangwei smoked half of it near the window at the end of the stairs, looking back at Lu Xingyin, who did not find the "old place" alone, just stood there blankly looking at himself, So he smiled: "Come here."

With the window open, there is no smell of smoke here, only the smell of rain and soil carried by the wind.

Seeing that he was holding the cigarette in his hand, Gu Fang didn't act like a big brother with him, but just reached out to him: "Good student, try it?"

In his palm lay a silver lighter.There is a clear sound of "ding" when it is opened.

He lowered his voice: "Don't report on brother. Trying once is enough."

Lu Xingyin took the lighter and lit it, the flame jumped up in front of his eyes with a "snap", and the smoke carried the smell of mint and vanilla.

He lit the cigarette, put it in his mouth like him, and bit it lightly.

A quiet person with a warm and fair appearance, biting a cigarette, not smoking, just looking out the window, with some stars in his eyes.The teeth were white and the lips were red.

He also knew that he was such a joke, so he smiled very shallowly, and then snuffed it out.

There is a thin gleam of water on the mint green cigarette butt.

"Why don't you smoke?"

Gu Fangwei thought he didn't like it, so he extinguished the cigarette and led him to the box.

"Smoking is not good." Lu Xingyin said quietly, "My grandma told me that the lungs of smokers are black after death, and such lungs cannot be donated to others."

"Don't say you're immortal at such a young age." Gu Fangwei didn't take it seriously, sat down and picked up the menu, and ordered seriously, "Here's a couple's lung slices. It won't turn black if you fill it up. If you want to eat, you can order it yourself." , Thanks to you, the old man will be reimbursed for whatever I take you out with today."

Lu Xingyin thought, it's unreasonable.

Husband and wife lung tablets are not really able to nourish the lungs.

He ordered some signature dishes, and then gave the menu to Lu Xingyin, who only asked for a cup of hot milk, and did not add anything else.

The signature dishes of this restaurant are roast duck with pineapple and grilled eggplant rolls on a iron plate. Gu Fangwei ordered them all. The side dishes are salt and pepper potatoes and duck bamboo shoot soup. In addition to the dessert drinks that have been ordered, milk beer and a snack platter that children love .

"Have you brought your girlfriend here before?" Lu Xingyin asked softly.

Gu Fangwei smiled wryly: "Brother, please forgive me, where do I have a girlfriend?"

It happened that the boss came over to serve the food, and when he heard this, he became reluctant and said to Lu Xingyin: "Little brother, don't trust him, and tell his parents when you have time, he brought a girl here to eat several times last year." The next meal is clearly a date!"

"fart."

Gu Fangwei scooped up a bowl of soup, and when the white porcelain spoon touched the bottom of the celadon bowl, he explained seriously, "I was ignorant at the time, thinking that everyone else was in love, and I wanted to. There happened to be a girl chasing me, it was me. The one I like, she asked me out for dinner a few times, and I brought her here, but I still felt bored later on, so I didn’t stay with her. It’s not as fun to start a business as falling in love.”

He very naturally put this bowl of soup in front of Lu Xingyin.

The boss scorned: "You're a scum, if you go on like this, I'll see who dares to follow you."

Gu Fangwei shrugged: "Where am I scumbag?"

After dinner, Gu Fangwei took him to the subway and taught him the way back to school from the city center.

The rain kept falling, Gu Fangwei felt lazy and couldn't think of where to take him to play: "Then go back to my place?"

Lu Xingyin said yes.

On the way, Gu Fangwei answered the phone, and then told him: "I may have a few friends coming from my side in a while. If you feel uncomfortable, I will go out and talk with them."

Lu Xingyin shook his head and said, "It's okay."

His small rental house is directly opposite Qingmo, and there is a student convenience store downstairs.The house has only one bedroom and one living room. It is small and a little old, but it is very tidy.

Gu Fangwei has a calm demeanor, and he doesn't seem to have any cognition that this rental house is not suitable for his status as a rich and young man.He took a can of Coke from the refrigerator and gave it to him: "Tell me something, sleep in your room if you're sleepy, and order takeaway if you're hungry—look, it's raining today, so you won't go out tonight?"

He is just lazy.

The young man in front of him is easy to coax, he will do whatever he says.

Seeing Lu Xingyin nodding, Gu Fang felt at ease: "You are much more worry-free than Sirie Sidu."

He went to turn on the computer, sat down at the desk, his usual sloppy expression restrained, and became serious.

Lu Xingyin turned his head to look, and Gu Fangwei's computer screen was filled with dense English materials and extremely complicated program model diagrams.

The light from the computer shone on his sharp-edged face, making him look gentle and quiet.

Lu Xingyin took out the English book in his schoolbag, and silently recited it.

The house was silent, only the sound of rain outside could be heard.

"You recite it aloud." Gu Fangwei's keyboard was silently tapped, "English must be recited aloud to be effective, and you don't have to worry about me."

Gu Fangwei seems to be born with half-hearted skills. He can type on the keyboard without interference while correcting his pronunciation, with a deep and calm voice.The gurgling rain outside harmonized unexpectedly with his deep voice.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Gu Fangwei's friends came over, a group of four, making a lot of noise.

Gu Fangwei gave a brief introduction: "My friend." Then he pointed to Lu Xingyin: "My younger brother."

"Ah, when did you have another younger brother, so cute!" A girl rushed over to greet Lu Xingyin, smiling, "It's not like you."

"Huo Sifeng." Gu Fangwei said casually, "There are drinks in the refrigerator, take them yourself."

"Surname Huo, Si generation, Huo family?" Suddenly, everyone came over to introduce themselves. "Hello, Sifeng!"

Someone was also puzzled: "I only know Huo Sidu and Huo Silie, when did they have another younger brother?"

Lu Xingyin himself was stunned, a little dazed.

Huo Sifeng?

What Gu Fangwei said seemed to be half-truth and half-false, and he even vaguely realized it after reacting for a while.

It seemed to be his original name.

The Huo family never mentioned to him about changing his real name back, and he didn't even know that he was supposed to be by this name.

When he was adopted by Grandma Lu, he was still very young, and his identity was unknown, so he took the surname Lu, and the name "Xingyin" was given by an old man next door who taught Chinese.

Gu Fang just lowered his head and fiddled with a ball of wires without looking up, as if this was a very normal thing, and said casually: "I was abducted by human traffickers 15 years ago and found it back. This is my own. The child is quiet and timid, so don't tease him. This name was chosen long before Si Du Si Lie was adopted, thinking wind comes from the heart, words flow from the lips and teeth, haven't you heard of it?"

The group of people fell silent, and sure enough, they restrained themselves a lot. Instead of asking about Lu Xingyin's identity, they just laughed and said, "Gu Fangwei, your Chinese level is good! Why are you so good and only got [-] points in the Chinese language test when you just returned?"

"My grandpa used to talk about it when I was young. He is a businessman, and he always wants to be arty like Grandpa Huo. He has to compare his names, and he teaches me by example every day." Gu Fangwei wrapped up the wire, with a faint look in his eyes. Smiling, as if earnestly proud, "You guys are not as good as me."

Lu Xingyin listened to them quietly, as if listening to a strange self.

At this moment, he realized that the young man in front of him seemed to have more roots with him - starting from his ancestors.

When he was still a child babbling among the fireworks in the distant world, he already knew his name and included him in the category of "one of us".

It's such a very natural and normal thing, he is the older brother of his family friend, even if they had no intersection before, so he protects him for no reason and introduces him as the Huo family to everyone.

He knew that he seemed to have a grandfather who liked to read some ancient poems, and knew that he had placed expectations and love on him before he was born in the world.Even if the rare person in this world who loved him unconditionally has passed away.

Although the group of people laughed and played when they entered the door, when they sat together, they became serious in a tacit agreement, sitting in a circle and talking softly.

"Your idea of ​​this interactive system is too advanced." Ye Pingting said, "It's not that it hasn't been proposed at home and abroad, but it's still stuck on the basic voice command. If you want to make some interesting IDEA, why not change it to something else. Something more realistic, like a robot."

"Google Glass came out last year, and the idea was ahead of its time before it was made. It doesn't mean it can't be done." Gu Fangwei took a sip of Coca-Cola, "What I need now is your detailed suggestions, not a denial of creativity."

The other boys in the same company spoke with strange accents, like foreigners who insisted on Chinese, and then they simply started talking in English.The speed of speech was so fast that Lu Xingyin could hardly hear a single word clearly. When the discussion became heated, everyone was beaming with joy.

Gu Fangwei changed his usual sloppy appearance and listened carefully, with an almost indifferent and serious demeanor.

……

In the evening, their discussion finally came to an end.

Lu Xingyin thought they would stay longer, but they came with great momentum and left like a whirlwind, and they went back immediately after the end.

Before leaving, several people came to stuff Lu Xingyin with stuff, stuffing whatever they had: brand-new mobile phone chains, snacks, country A's change and banknotes folded into paper boats, all said to be gifts for him as a meeting gift.

"Brother study hard, if Gu Fangwei bullies you, tell us!" Those people seriously urged, "It's all because Gu Fangwei didn't say that there is such a little baby here in advance! Otherwise, we will take you out to play whatever we say .”

The small rental house immediately fell silent again.

Lu Xingyin asked Gu Fangwei to borrow a small paper box, cherishing it and putting it away.

Then continue to write English.

Gu Fangwei typed something on the document, stretched his waist and stood up, looked back to see that he was still studying, raised his eyebrows, rolled into the sofa, and leaned against him.

Lu Xingyin's hand holding the pen froze, and then he said calmly, "Sit up, my handwriting is going to be crooked."

Gu Fangwei leaned on him and did not move.He smelled the scent of medicine on his body, and suddenly became interested: "Little Calculator, you love studying so much, go back and tell your uncle and aunt to transfer you to Yingcai. What are you doing here in Qingmo?"

Lu Xingyin didn't say a word, and concentrated on writing a single word.

"However, Yingcai's quota is tight, so it's not going to turn around." Gu Fangwei thought for a while, and asked him, "We'll wait until Qingmo is restructured to become a repeat school for Yingcai, and then I'll arrange you in. Your family is this Go ahead."

"No." Lu Xingyin said, he glanced at Gu Fangwei, "They didn't tell me."

Gu Fang tilted his head.

"I didn't know before, but now it's because of me." Lu Xingyin's gaze stayed on him, then he retracted his gaze, and said flatly, "It's because I want to stay in Qingmo Qizhong."
