who said you were a stand-in

Huo Han, who was about to turn into a hardworking gardener, was lying on the sofa at Shen Ji's house, drooling at the video titled 'Yancheng No. [-] Middle School Flag Raising Ceremony' on his phone.

In the video, the boy standing at the front was obviously the face that he had scrutinized last night, but Tao Ran looked better after taking off the clothes of the waiter in the bar.

After watching the video several times, Huo Han came to a conclusion, "He is indeed more suitable to be a student."

"Are you serious?"

Huo Han didn't speak, but gave Shen Ji a disdainful look.

Shen Ji, who looked at his expression, immediately understood that Huo Han was serious.

As Huo Han's friend, Shen Ji knew his character very well.He is the second child of the Huo family, with a vigorous elder brother on his head.And because of the Huo family's family background, Huo Han has ignored everyone since he was a child.

Huo Han's grades were not good when he was in school, and he usually has a bad temper in private.From Shen Ji's acquaintance with Huo Han to now, the only thing Huo Han has insisted on for many years is chasing after Chi Qiuyan.

Even so, in the past two years, Huo Hanyang's little lovers are everywhere.

But Shen Ji was not worried that Huo Han had ulterior motives towards Tao Ran?Why?

Shen Ji glanced at Huo Han who was on the sofa. This person is not human in many ways, but he treats the lover around him with the utmost care of your love and my willingness.

Coupled with the fact that Huo Han still had an inexplicable sense of justice in his bones, Shen Ji took him as a momentary boredom.

Two years ago, Huo Han even picked up two stray cats from the parking lot.

Shen Ji remembered that they were two white cats with black patches on their bodies. The reason for describing them this way was because most of those two cats were indeed white.

It's a pity that the coat is dull in the white area, and there are two or three other colors in the rest.

Almost everyone who saw these two cats cried because of their ugliness.Shen Ji is no exception, he has a deep memory of the black on the two cats.

What did Huo Han do at that time?

Whoever said his cat was ugly, he was in a hurry with whom!The results of it?

Huo Han only raised them for two weeks, and after two weeks, everyone never heard him mention the two cats again.

Right now, Tao Ran is to Huo Han, Shen Ji thinks it might be that cat, what's the difference... Tao Ran looks better.

As a good friend, Shen Ji is very happy to see Huo Han spend his energy on Tao Ran.Because of this, he must not have the heart to think about Chi Qiuyan.

***

Today is Saturday, after Tao Ran got up in the morning, he first went to the hospital to visit his father, and then took a taxi to go to the fireworks.

"Brother."

Two days have passed since Tao Ran and Huo Han fought in the bar. When Tao Ran walked into the bar, Liang Dong was sitting inside playing with his mobile phone.

"Huh? Here it is!"

Something happened in the bar, Liang Dong was afraid that someone would trouble Tao Ran, so he specifically told him to stay at home for two days.

Tao Ran: "Yes."

The fireworks business is mainly at night, and it is daytime right now, so there are really not many people in the bar. Tao Ran came here today mainly because he wanted to apologize to the boss.

"Is Brother Kong there? How much was lost in the bar that day? Take it from my salary."

Liang Dong: "No need."

He waved his hand, and approached Tao Ran mysteriously, "Where is it your turn to pay for it? Those few are big spenders, and they almost smashed people to death with money. Besides, nothing was smashed in the store. It was a blessing in disguise, and I ordered some new tables and chairs for him."

Hearing what Liang Dong said, Tao Ran couldn't help but smile.

Liang Dong asked him, "Are you here for something?"

Tao Ran: "Yes."

He thought for a while, and said to Liang Dong, "I plan to quit my job in the bar."

Upon hearing this, Liang Dong became anxious, "No, Brother Kong didn't blame you, are you afraid that those people will find fault? It's okay, I will take care of you!"

Tao Ran shook his head, "No."

He explained to Liang Dong: "I came here to work during the summer vacation. Fireworks is a little far away from our school, and also far from the place where my dad is hospitalized. Now that school starts, I want to find a job near the school."

When Liang Dong heard that this was the case, he said 'oh', and started calling the boss with his mobile phone.

After finishing the call, he picked up his phone and transferred 5000 yuan to Tao Ran.

Tao Ran: "Brother Dong!"

Liang Dong dusted off the cigarette ash, "Take it, Brother Kong gave it to you."

Seeing Tao Ran, Liang Dong was about to decline, "As far as your commission that night was, it was a thousand dollars less. This amount is really not much."

However, Tao Ran only worked for half a month this month!

Liang Dong grinned, "If you are willing to have a holiday, come here again."

Holding the phone, Tao Ran looked at Liang Dong with slightly red eyes, "Thank you brother."

After quitting his pyrotechnic job, Tao Ran went home first. He did his homework in the living room, and then made rice noodles in the kitchen.

After eating a small bowl by himself, Tao Ran separated the rice noodles and soup into lunch boxes and took them to the hospital. His father liked to eat this.

"Ran Ran?"

After greeting the nurses in the ward, Tao Ran distributed some of the rice noodles he had brought.He cooks too much for two people, and he is not afraid of not having enough food.

After finishing lunch with his father, Tao Ran went to the doctor while his father was taking a nap.

Tao Xueyi's attending physician was surnamed Han, and when Tao Ran entered, he was writing a report.

"Uncle Han."

"Huh? But it's here?"

Tao Ran's father has been in poor health since he was born, mainly because of heart problems. He had an operation ten years ago. This time...

"Of course." The doctor looked at Tao Ran with distress.

Tao Ran is only 17 years old, but he travels between school and the hospital all day long, and he has to help his father earn medical expenses. Such a heavy burden on his shoulders can crush him at any time.

"In your father's situation, if you don't have an operation, you can only last for two months at most."

Tao Xueyi has been in the hospital for more than half a year, and the medical expenses during this period have almost used up all the savings of the family, but this has not improved his health.

Han Cheng explained everything about Tao Xueyi to Tao Ran. When Tao Ran stepped out of the hospital with the medical records, he suddenly felt a little dazed and looked up at the top of his head, feeling a little dizzy.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Tao Ran entered a restaurant near the school.

The boss sells string skewers. When Tao Ran went, the shop was already washing vegetables, so he entered the kitchen to skewer vegetables with others.

After five o'clock is the peak time for dinner, more and more people are coming to the store, and the tables have been placed on the road outside.

"Xiao Ran, clean up table number six outside!"

"Oh, here we come!"

After wiping the sweat off his brow, Tao Ran arranged the newly brought dishes in order and went outside to clean them.

"Hello, what would you like to eat?"

He had just finished cleaning the table when a shadow fell over his head.

The customer who sat down did not answer, Tao Ran raised his head, and unexpectedly saw a face he had seen a few days ago.The other party was wearing a black suit, and all the clothes on his body were incompatible with this place.

"Liar liar."

Huo Han felt that Tao Ran was a little liar, he lied to him that he was an adult even though he was only 17 years old.

He smiled at the corner of his mouth, and looked straight at Tao Ran, "Brother, brother, please drink soda!"

Tao Ran: "..."

At that moment, the corners of Tao Ran's mouth involuntarily rose a little, because Huo Han is also an acquaintance, no matter what the reason is, Huo Han is the guest right now, "What do you want to eat?"

Huo Han didn't come here to eat, he was squeezed among a bunch of people, looking at the small square tables in the front, back, left, and right, the place is quite crowded.

"Come on whatever you want."

Tao Ran picked some dishes for Huo Han himself, and opened a bottle of beer for him, "I treat you."

Because Huo Han invited him to eat skewers, he can still afford this meal today, "Eat slowly."

After speaking, Tao Ran went to greet the guests again.

After waiting for a while without waiting for anyone, Huo Han grabbed Tao Ran, "Don't be too busy."

After finishing speaking, Huo Han turned to face the boss, "I'll take care of everything he has done."

The boss looked suspiciously, "Are you sure?"

Huo Han: "..."

After glancing at the hundreds of skewers on the shelf, he took out his phone and called the assistant to ask for extra meals for the staff.

On that day, all the employees of Huo's Enterprise felt the deep love from the boss - a bowl of Malatang.

After selling all the skewers, the boss closed down immediately, and Tao Ran finally had time to talk to Huo Han.

Tao Ran, who was sitting opposite Huo Han, felt that Huo Han seemed to be a very strange person, just like the bowl of skewers in front of him, he ate quite deliciously.

After eating for a while, Huo Han drank a glass of beer and took out the things he had prepared.

"Give."

Tao Ran took it and flipped through a few pages, it was a sponsorship letter.

There has never been a free lunch in the world. Tao Ran has the ability to distinguish, so he naturally understands this truth.

"No need."

It's okay to invite Huo Han to dinner, but he really can't accept this.

"why?"

Based on their relationship, no matter what Huo Han's status is, he is not qualified to accept this unreasonable funding.

So Tao Ran didn't want to get entangled with Huo Han on this issue.

"elder brother."

Tao Ran sat opposite Huo Han, staring at him, "How about eating?"

Aside from Tao Ran's unexpected words that night, Huo Han is actually a pretty good person.When Tao Ran got along with him, he still found it interesting and relaxed, so he didn't want to make the relationship between the two of them so complicated.

And Huo Han sitting opposite him...

When he heard Tao Ran's 'brother', his heart was already pounding!

He felt that his hands and feet were soft, as if he was standing on a cloud!

Huo Han has an older brother, Huo Qi, and a younger sister, Huo Yuwan, even though he is 29 this year, but he has been rampant in Yancheng for so many years, and he is still the youngest of the group of four.

Therefore, when getting along on weekdays, although he didn't say it clearly, when Huo Han was with his friends, he was mostly taken care of.

Right now, Tao Ran, who was sitting opposite Huo Han, still had a clean and sunny student demeanor, looking at him with trusting eyes.The trace of helpless pleading in his eyes made Huo Han seem to see his younger brother eagerly asking his elder brother for a toy.

How could he have the heart to refuse?

But the more Tao Ran showed this kind of sensibility beyond his age, the more Huo Han felt distressed.

The goal of making Tao Ran obedient is obviously not something that can be achieved in one go, Huo Han is planning to fight a long battle.

Anyway, he was paying attention all the time, so he must not let Tao Ran suffer.

"Okay, then at least leave a WeChat account?"

Looking at the mobile phone that Huo Han handed over, Tao Ran had no choice but to add a friend.

Because Huo Han contracted all the food in the store, Tao Ran sat on the curb with Huo Han and blew two bottles of beer.

Huo Han tugged on his tie, "Oh, when I was your age..."

Tao Ran just wanted to laugh when he was talking about his rich past history.

"I see."

The other party is indeed not a law-abiding person.

There was a big age difference between the two, but they were able to chat together unexpectedly. After spending an afternoon with Huo Han, Tao Ran finished work and returned home.

After coming out of the shower, Tao Ran, who hadn't finished tidying up the room, heard a notification tone from his mobile phone.

He picked up the phone and looked at the message sent by Huo Han, Tao Ran felt that Huo Han, who had added his WeChat number, seemed a little too excited.

[Huo Han: Brother, what are you doing? ]

[Tao Ran: I just took a shower. ]

[Huo Han: Huh? ]

The two chatted for a few minutes, Tao Ran found out the nurse's WeChat, sent a message, and asked about his father's condition.

Soon the other party gave a reply, saying that Tao Xueyi was in good condition.

Inevitably, Tao Ran remembered the hundreds of thousands of surgical fees, and Huo Han on the other side was still sending messages. Regarding the matter of rejecting Huo Han during the day, Tao Ran suddenly couldn't tell right from wrong.

With these thoughts in mind, Tao Ran did not sleep peacefully.

"Brother Ran."

When Liu Bao arrived at school, Tao Ran was reviewing his homework in the classroom.

He was carrying a bag of buns, took out two buns and handed them to Tao Ran, "Have you had breakfast?"

Tao Ran took it and took a bite in his hand, "It's stuffed with sauerkraut."

Seeing Tao Ran eating happily, Liu Bao smiled "hehe", showing the smile of an old father.There is still obvious distress in his eyes, it's not easy for Brother Ran.

Because he was worried about his father, Tao Ran's cell phone was always turned on when he was in school.Afraid of disturbing his classmates' studies, he turned his mobile phone to silent and put it on the table every day.

When the words 'Doctor Han' lit up on the phone screen, Tao Ran put down the book in his hand.

"Of course, something is wrong with your father!"
