I Just Came to Borrow a Light

Yuan Wu probably didn't expect him to be so blunt. He watched him silent for a long time, and then started laughing.

"Is it funny?" Lin Chengbu tugged at his sleeve, "Hey, stop laughing... If there's anything funny, I'll just state the truth."

"Yeah." Yuan Wu nodded, still smiling.

"Forget it," Lin Chengbu sighed, "Laugh."

"It's over." Yuan Wu put away his smile, leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes.

Lin Chengbu glanced at him, and originally wanted to say that he would make an appointment to go to bed, but he didn't open his mouth after thinking about it. If Yuan Wu hadn't started this kind of topic, he wouldn't be able to say it, and he was afraid that Yuan Wu would finish talking. Another laugh.

I don't know if I just feel coke, or I'm laughing at it.

After Yuan Wu finished laughing, he didn't speak any more, just closed his eyes and rested his mind.

Lin Chengbu was stunned by the side for half an hour, but couldn't bear it anymore, and gently pushed Yuan Wu: "Hey, you came here to sleep?"

"No," Yuan Wu frowned, "I just... haven't thought about it yet."

"Have you thought about anything?" Lin Chengbu asked.

"I haven't thought about how to deal with Yuan Shen's things," Yuan Wu pinched his brows, "Did you not have lunch?"

"...En." Lin Chengbu responded.

"Are you very hungry?" Yuan Wu asked.

"It's... okay, okay," Lin Chengbu looked at his watch, "Anyway, you can have dinner after a while."

"I heard your stomach growl." Yuan Wu opened his eyes and turned his head to look out, "Hey? There is a milk tea shop, did you see it? There is a milk tea shop, although it is not tribute tea..."

"What?" Lin Chengbu squinted at him.

"Go," Yuan Wu opened the car door, "Uncle treats you to milk tea."

"The police will come to tow the truck later." Lin Chengbu sat still.

"Drag it," Yuan Wu got out of the car and looked back and forth, "I didn't say no to stop here, but there was no check mark. There are so many cars back and forth... Are you annoying?"

Lin Cheng stepped out of the car.

"Like a little old lady," Yuan Wu walked over to the milk tea shop, "It's too much to worry about."

"To be honest, it's because I look like a little old lady," Lin Chengbu followed behind him, "If you're just like you, who cares about you."

Yuan Wu stopped and turned around, raising his arms suddenly.

"Hey!" Lin Chengbu was startled, and quickly raised his head to protect his head.

Yuan Wu came over and hugged him, patted him on the back, and said softly: "Thank you."

Lin Chengbu froze in place until Yuan Wu walked into the milk tea shop, then he let go of the arm he had been raising and walked slowly over.

Yuan Wu bought two cups of milk caps and a box of egg tarts and sat down at the small table by the door.

"What are you doing?" Lin Chengbu walked over and sat across from him, took a few sips of a glass, "It's all of a sudden, it made me so..."

"No reason," Yuan Wu stirred back and forth in the cup with a straw, "I just want you to know, I know what you do."

"It's okay if you don't know, and I didn't do this to let you know," Lin Chengbu looked at the straw in his hand, couldn't hold it back after a while, and pressed his hand that was still stirring, "Hey, don't stir it, it's not good to drink like this."

"I didn't ask you to drink like this," Yuan Wu said, "Then how do you want me to drink?"

"Well," Lin Chengbu pulled up the straw, "just drink the place where the milk cap and tea meet, it's the best way to drink."

"...Okay," Yuan Wu took two sips as he said, "little girl."

"Get out," Lin Chengbu said.

After drinking the milk tea and eating up a box of egg tarts, Lin Chengbu felt at ease.

But Yuan Wu didn't seem to have thought it through yet, and sat at the table in the milk tea shop without moving.

"Why don't you just go back first," Lin Chengbu said, "You can come back after you think about it."

"This house is rented, and it's due next week, and I have to clean it up in these two days," Yuan Wu said. After a moment of silence, he stood up, "Let's go, go in and clean it up, you just happen to help me."

"Let me clean it up," Lin Chengbu said, "I've cleaned it up for a while, journeyman."

"This time I have to clean up by myself." Yuan Wu smiled.

The neighborhood is old and there are probably no real estate properties.

The house rented by Yuan Shen is on the first floor, the window faces a small piece of grass, and there are chickens raised by someone’s home, and there are a few broken flower pots beside it, and the roots of the flowers have grown into the grass below. It drives pretty well.

Originally, Lin Chengbu felt that although the environment was not tidy, it was quite down-to-earth. Standing at the window and looking out, he could still pretend to be a bit of an idyllic scene.

But Yuan Wu opened the door, and after he took a look in, he felt that the people who lived here might not stand at the window to look out.

The room was a little chaotic, I don't know if it was chaotic or Yuan Wu lived in it.

A little mess is acceptable, but what makes people feel a little depressing is the messy writing on the wall and the paintings that are very similar to the walls of the old factory building.

"Will the landlord have to pay money when the house is returned?" Lin Chengbu said, "They still have to work hard to scrape the wall."

"Tell the landlord that the deposit will not be refunded." Yuan Wu stood in the middle of the room.

"Is there anything to pack? I have an empty storage box in my car." Lin Chengbu asked.

"Okay, give it to me." Yuan Wu said.

Lin Chengbu took the storage box on the car into the house, and Yuan Wu put the box on the ground, and kicked it slowly from one side of the room to the other, and then back again, as if he didn't know where to start.

Lin Chengbu didn't urge him, he lit a cigarette and sat watching.

After a while, Yuan Wu began to tidy up the things on the table: "I think so."

"En." Lin Chengbu responded.

"Some things that I think make me feel comfortable when I think about them, I will keep them, and I will keep the others," Yuan Wu said while picking up a notebook and flipping through it, then put it back on the table, "Like this book, it's full of...unintelligible, I don't think I'll keep it."

"Well," Lin Chengbu nodded, "What do you do with the ones you keep?"

Yuan Wu patted his pocket, and the key inside rang twice: "Let my grandparents handle it."

"Ah?" Lin Chengbu was stunned, feeling that besides Yuan Shen, grandparents were also the ones who put Yuan Wu under tremendous mental pressure, so he was a little worried.

"It's okay," Yuan Wu said, "I don't care what their attitude is, I'm used to it anyway, I just want to settle this matter, I won't have them in my life anymore...Of course, it's not practical anymore, Just thinking about...things about them would stop bothering me."

Lin Chengbu didn't speak, but just nodded.

Yuan Wu's words didn't sound like talking to himself, but Lin Chengbu felt that they were more for himself.

From tearing up the wound in the bar that day to now, only he knows what Yuan Wu has experienced during this period of time, and even Dr. Liang can't understand everything.

Lin Chengbu used to think that Yuan Wu always avoided, and when he got anxious, he wanted to call Yuan Wu a waste, but after knowing that Yuan Wu had passed by a little bit, he felt that it was not easy for Yuan Wu to do this now.

"You know," Yuan Wu slowly picked up the things on the table, and put most of them back after looking at them, "I don't have a good relationship with Yuan Shen, at least I don't think there is much. good."

"Because we didn't spend much time together when we were young." Lin Chengbu said.

"Probably, it is said that his brain was injured, but I think my brain may not be very good. My earliest memory is that we changed our names," Yuan Wu smiled, and put a photo in the book. into the storage box, "There is nothing to remember in the future, and there may be nothing worth remembering."

"My earliest memory is that I peed my pants in the kindergarten and was punished by the teacher to stand on the stool and let the whole class watch." Lin Chengbu clicked his tongue, "I felt like my heart was broken at that time."

Yuan Wu glanced back at him: "Bare butt?"

"No way! My pants were wet, and the teacher took them off, and put me on the stool when he brought clean pants." Lin Chengbu sighed, "It feels like the neighbor's old lady would hit me all day long. Little dicks have a fight."

Yuan Wu put his hands on the table with his back to him and said nothing.

Lin Chengbu stared at his shoulder for a while: "Are you smiling?"

"Yes." Yuan Wu said, with a smile in his voice.

"Just laugh out loud, it's okay." Lin Chengbu said.

"Don't you always laugh at you for fear of hitting you too hard?" Yuan Wu said.

"Have you hit me less often?" Lin Chengbu pinched his cigarette, "It's good to be able to smile."

Yuan Wu smiled for a while, and continued to tidy up. He basically didn't move the things on the table, and took a few pens, a photo, and a small notebook that looked like it hadn't been used.

Yuanshen's room is quite messy, but in fact there are not many things, the main reason is that they are thrown out in a dishonest manner.

Lin Chengbu watched Yuan Wu put things into the storage box. Except for the one on the table, he almost didn't put anything in it. He took a folding fan on the sofa, and turned a wristband in the drawer...

He leaned over to take a look, the folding fan was completely black, which was quite cool, with words written in silver ink on it, he couldn't understand what was written, it was very sloppy.

"This fan is mine," Yuan Wu took it over and fanned it twice, "how is it?"

"...You still use this kind of old man's folding fan?" Lin Chengbu was stunned.

"It's been a long time," Yuan Wu put the fan away with a swipe, and opened the fan with a flick of his wrist, "This is what I liked before I changed my style."

"What was your style before you changed your style?" Lin Chengbu asked with great interest.

"Coat and black cloth shoes," Yuan Wu put the fan into the box, "the kind of old man's cloth shoes, very comfortable."

"...Oh," Lin Chengbu looked at him, "I wish I knew you then."

"Huh?" Yuan Wu glanced at him.

"That kind of real old man style is not my style," Lin Chengbu said, feeling a little emotional after thinking about it, "If that's the case, I don't have to toss with you for so many years."

"It's a loss, isn't it?" Yuan Wu said.

"No, if I really always feel panicked, I won't be like this anymore. I look stupid, but I'm not really stupid." Lin Chengbu smiled and leaned his head on the sofa, "But, I like it. You, just relying on feelings, it means that I have feelings for you, maybe you are an old man with cloth shoes, I still have feelings, if you are a woman, maybe I can pass on our old Lin family."

Yuan Wu looked at him for a while, then turned around and continued to tidy up slowly: "Xiao Hua."

"...You called me?" Lin Chengbu was stunned, "What the hell is Xiaohua?"

"Jehovah Xiaohua." Yuan Wu said.

"Damn it," Lin Chengbu was a little speechless, "You're not finished, are you, the Lord?"

"You said it yourself," Yuan Wu put a book into the box, "I didn't install it for you... I have something to give you later... probably."

"Really?" Lin Chengbu stood up from the sofa, "What is it? Why did you give me something? It's not a festival."

"Probably, possibly," Yuan Wu said, "Maybe, probably..."

"No," Lin Chengbu clicked his tongue, "If you don't want to give it to you, don't worry about it. I don't expect you to give me something. Really, seeing you like this, I feel embarrassed for you."

"Okay, sure." Yuan Wu patted his arm.

"What the hell is it?" Lin Chengbu followed behind him, "Why do you want to send something?"

"It's gone if you don't shut up." Yuan Wu said.

Lin Chengbu quickly sat back on the sofa and lit a cigarette.

It took Yuan Wu more than an hour to pack the things he wanted into the storage box.

"Okay," he said, "let's go."

"I'll help you carry the suitcase." Lin Chengbu immediately jumped up from the sofa, glanced at the room that was basically the same as before, "What did you collect? Didn't you take much?"

"Well," Yuan Wu seemed a little tired, and walked out of the room with a reply, "The key is on the table, lock it for me."

"Okay," Lin Chengbu took the key, lifted the box with both hands, and then shouted, "Hey!"

The box was basically weightless, so he tried so hard that he almost lost his waist.

Yuan Wu didn't get in the car, leaned against the front of the car with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, and watched the chickens walking around on the grass.

"I'll bring you such a big box." Lin Cheng walked over, took out the lighter and helped Yuan Wu light the cigarette, "You can fit a shoebox with all your things."

"There's nothing left to take," Yuan Wu puffed out a puff of smoke, "All these were taken from me by Yuan Shen before."

"It's all your own stuff?" Lin Chengbu was stunned, "I thought you wanted to take some of his things as souvenirs."

"No, there is nothing to commemorate between Yuan Shen and I." Yuan Wu looked at the smoke, "He has been unhappy in his life, and I am the same. There is nothing to commemorate between such brothers."

"Well, as long as you feel comfortable," Lin Chengbu kicked the wheel, "but...but..."

"Here we come again." Yuan Wu glanced at him, "Did you get hit by someone when you were learning to speak?"

"Your uncle," Lin Chengbu smiled, "I just want to say, don't think that there is nothing to commemorate between us, even if nothing happened..."

"It happened a lot," Yuan Wu took a puff of his cigarette, pinched half of it and threw it into the trash can next to him, "I will never forget it, I will remember it for a lifetime."

"Really?" Lin Chengbu looked at him.

"Am I so unfeeling in your heart?" Yuan Wu opened the passenger door and got into the car.

"I'm just worried," Lin Chengbu also got into the car, "I'm ready to remember forever, but I'm always afraid that the person I've been thinking about has nothing to remember about me."

"Let me tell you Xiaohua." Yuan Wu gave him a serious look, "If you want someone to chase after you, with your eloquence of deep affection, at most one month, the other party will fall."

"I'm not eloquent," Lin Chengbu frowned, and started the car, "I can't say such things to others, you have to understand this, I'm talking to you, that's why."

Yuan Wu didn't speak.

"Also, I'll put up with what's going on, Xiaohua, tell me again, I'm in a hurry with you," Lin Chengbu said, "I really think I have no temper."

"Got it." Yuan Wu smiled and nodded.

After driving back from Yuanshen, it was already almost six o'clock, Lin Chengbu said to have a meal, Yuan Wu did not refuse.

But the cars had all stopped at the entrance of the hotel, but Yuan Wu watched the people coming and going outside without moving.

"What's the matter?" Lin Chengbu immediately asked, "Do you think there are too many people?"

"No, I just suddenly lost my appetite." Yuan Wu hesitated, then turned to look at him, "The tofu you've been talking about before, let's make one and try it?"

"Tofu?" Lin Chengbu was stunned for a moment before he realized, "I made tofu?"

"Yeah." Yuan Wu nodded.

"It can only be done in a restaurant," Lin Chengbu said, "Are you going to Chunzhi with me? I invited you to go before and you almost kowtowed and you didn't go."

"Just go," Yuan Wu thought for a while, "I can't go today, don't you have a stomachache? You pretended to be sincere. I think your boss almost came to visit you."

"It's okay," Lin Chengbu smiled, "I can still help if I go now, it seems that I am righteous."

"Then go, try it," Yuan Wu said, "I've been bragging for so many years."

Lin Chengbu didn't know why Yuan Wu was suddenly willing to go to Chunzhi for dinner, whether it was because he had been tossing around for so long, and he wanted to give some comfort and chat to express his gratitude, or he simply wanted to eat.

But he didn't bother with this reason, Yuan Wu wanted to eat, so he took Yuan Wu there, and just made it for him to eat.

He feels that his greatest strength is that he is not too entangled, which should be the opposite of Yuan Wu. Maybe Yuan Wu is so entangled that he almost can't get himself out.

Chunzhi was not full today, and one of the boxes was vacant. Although there would definitely be guests who would like to use it later, Lin Chengbu and Sun Yingchun still asked for the box.

"Are you still using the private room for just one person?" Sun Yingchun looked at him incomprehensibly.

"Very...important friend." Lin Chengbu smiled.

"Then you use it," Sun Yingchun sighed, "Just now when you said you wanted to use the private room, I wondered if you brought a girl, but it turned out to be a man."

"My mother doesn't even bother with that," Lin Chengbu put his arm around her shoulders, "I'll go to the kitchen later."

Lin Chengbu took the tea and snacks to be brought into the box from the waiter, and pushed open the door of the box.

Yuan Wu was standing by the window, when he turned around and saw that he was putting a tray on the table, he came over to take a snack and took a bite: "Aren't you a chef, you're showing off."

"I just want to serve you comfortably." Lin Chengbu took the cup and poured tea for him.

"Oh." Yuan Wu looked at him and hooked his lips.

"That..." Lin Chengbu felt that what he said was ambiguous. In order to prevent Yuan Wu from hurting him, he quickly interrupted, "The puff pastry is delicious, red bean puff pastry."

"Oh." Yuan Wu took another red bean cake and took a bite.

The red bean cake was just out of the oven, and it was very soft. Yuan Wu dropped a handful of scum when he bit into it, and a lot of it was stained on his mouth.

"It's delicious." He patted the dregs on his hands and licked his lips. "I feel like eating this is enough for me."

"Don't," Lin Chengbu reached out and took the plate of red bean cakes in front of him aside, staring at his mouth, feeling a little distracted, "You still have to eat my tofu."

Yuan Wu looked at him, and smiled after a few seconds: "Okay."

"No," Lin Chengbu reacted abruptly, "No...I mean..."

Yuan Wu didn't make a sound, just looked at him with a half-smile.

"Don't laugh." Lin Chengbu pointed at him.

"Haha, hahaha," Yuan Wu said blankly, "What do you want?"

Lin Chengbu stared at him for a while, leaned on the table and rushed over to give him a quick kiss on the corner of the mouth: "That's it."

Yuan Wu was taken aback by him, and it took a long time before he said: "Oh, I thought you were going to pick me up on the spot."
