Upper Class

The dormitory is not far from the construction site.The head office also arranged a room for He Xian here, and it was the first time for him to spend the night here.

He was very drunk, Lin Sitao took the key to open the door and tried several times before opening the door.He Xian sat down at the entrance and changed his shoes.

Lin Sitao stood outside the door, reached his body, and put the keys on the shoe cabinet.

He Xian called him: "Come in and have a glass of water."

Lin Sitao hesitated for a moment, and went in.Following He Xian's example, he took off his shoes and put on slippers.Then stand in the living room.He Xian turned on all the lights, turned on the air conditioner, turned around, first looked at the bathroom, then the room.

The place is not big, but it is clean and tidy, fully equipped, including washing machine and kitchen utensils.

After He Xian finished his visit, he saw Lin Sitao still standing in the living room.

"Sit down." He opened the refrigerator and took out a large bottle of fruit juice, the packaging was all in English.

Lin Sitao didn't sit on the sofa, but walked to the chair by the dining table and sat down.

It happened that He Xian poured him a glass of juice and put it on the dining table.

"They are so thoughtful. They have everything," He Xian looked through the refrigerator again, "Are you hungry? Here are bread, cake, ham, eggs, hot sauce, tomato sauce..."

He took everything out with a single brain, cut a lot of ham, sandwiched it with bread slices, and made a big plate of extremely ugly sandwiches, entertaining the children in front of him.

"I just drank, and now I'm starving to death." He grabbed a piece and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Take whatever you like..." He pushed the boxed ice cream and cake towards Lin Sitao.

Lin Sitao also took a piece of bread and ham, and took a small bite.

He Xian looked at him and said with emotion: "No matter how you look at it, you are still very small!"

"Well," Lin Sitao's voice sounded as if he was afraid of disturbing others, "I am often called baby-faced by others, because I look small."

He didn't know what to say next.

Besides, he didn't know how the topic turned to him, and there was a more terrifying thing in front of him - he just prevented Director He from committing suicide!

But Director He didn't say a word of thanks (he didn't expect the director to thank him), didn't say a word, and went home as if nothing had happened, completely like a normal person, talking and eating.It seemed that what happened on the bridge was all his illusion or misunderstanding.

Lin Sitao was really confused, maybe Director He was really just drunk.

"Are you from City J? Where are you from City J?" He Xian took out another can of beer and mixed it with juice.

"Fangjiang District." Lin Sitao replied.

He Xian was stunned: "That's the urban area."

Few of the children in urban areas go to work, and they still come to work on construction sites.

And Fangjiang District is not far from his grandfather's old house.

"Fangjiang Seventh Middle School...do you know?" He asked Lin Sitao.

Lin Sitao finally laughed. When he smiled, he was very cute.

"I'm in No.[-] Middle School. Director He, are you familiar with City J?"

He Xian nodded: "No.[-] Middle School is my mother's alma mater."

Lin Sitao said: "The No. [-] Middle School used to be a girls' school, and there were many famous alumni. After it was changed to a coeducational school, it was not so good. Now it is an ordinary school. But the scenery near the school is not bad, and there are no key high schools. The nice old building of our school."

After he finished speaking, he felt a little embarrassed again - with Director He's knowledge, he probably didn't need to introduce these at all.

But He Xian seemed to be listening very seriously and engrossed.

After Lin Sitao finished speaking, his eyes were still fixed on Lin Sitao's forehead.

Just stare straight.

It took a few seconds for Lin Sitao to realize - He Xian was just distracted.

"Director He?" He called softly.

Only then did He Xian come back to his senses: "Ah! Ah! Did I fall asleep? I seemed to have squinted just now."

Lin Sitao was finally convinced that he was quite drunk.

He was embarrassed to continue to sit down, and got up to leave.

He Xian said: "Today is too late, you stay." He looked into Lin Sitao's eyes and emphasized.His hair was a little disheveled, not as neatly combed as it was in the morning, and now he looked like a college student.

——The only college student Lin Sitao knew was the son of his landlord.As soon as he was on vacation, he would play games in the Internet cafe. The landlord said that he would eat, sleep and ask for money when he came home.

Lin Sitao had thought that if one day he went to college, he would never become that kind of college student.

He Xiancai was the college student he imagined.He must have graduated from a prestigious school like Oxford and Cambridge at a young age, so he was able to command the scene and achieve the position of director.

He Xian stared at him: "I still have something to ask you, you will sleep here today." He said very resolutely.

Just as Lin Sitao was hesitating, a white light flashed outside the window, and there was a thunderclap—the thunderstorm finally came in the middle of the night.

Lin Sitao suddenly became dizzy.The heavy rain was pouring down outside the window, and the sound of the rain was like a waterfall.It was as if someone had already made a decision for him somewhere.

He was very nervous.

But He Xian relaxed, his whole body relaxed, and finally showed a real expression that was almost smiling - "It's dangerous outside in this weather, you should rest here first."

He Xian went to the room to find some bathrobes.Throw one to Lin Sitao.

He told Lin Sitao to take a bath first.

Lin Sitao was very obedient.He has always been very obedient, and his grandmother said he was like a dog since he was a child.

But this was the first time he had obeyed a stranger like this.Lin Sitao was already confused, he had never met someone like He Xian, and he had never broken into other people's room so suddenly.

When he took off his clothes and stood under the shower, Lin Sitao shivered like a patient about to have a high fever.But he is not afraid.After all, he is still a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old. Most of the time, he is blindly optimistic.

He turned the knob on the shower, but the water just wouldn't come out.He tried several times but couldn't open it. 30 seconds, 1 minute suddenly became very long, and Lin Sitao was afraid that He Xian would push open the bathroom door impatiently and ask him if he knew how to use the shower.

Fortunately, it was very quiet outside the door.

He kept trying different directions, and at the last second of desperation, water gushed out of the shower.Lin Sitao had never been so grateful that he didn't give up - he avoided the embarrassment of having to call He Xian in to help him.

After taking a quick shower, Lin Sitao put on his pajamas.The pajamas were already loose, and they were prepared according to He Xian's figure.He is too baggy to wear.He wiped the moisture off the mirror, and took a guilty look, only to see a small shadow.

He tidied up his pajamas first, and put his top into his pajama pants, thinking he should take it out.Then try to push the thick hair back, exposing the entire forehead, without the hair covering it, the big back hairstyle can make his face not so childish-but he doesn't understand the meaning of these movements.

He finally walked out of the bathroom calmly.But He Xian was already lying on the sofa and fell asleep, snoring lightly, and he was sleeping soundly.Even drunk, he looked impossibly suave and handsome.Lin Sitao stood three steps away from him, stared at him for a few seconds, and then called him softly: "Director He."

He Xian didn't wake up, he just snorted vaguely.The TV was turned on, and a lively talent show was being broadcast, some people were crying and others were laughing.Lin Sitao's voice became softer: "Director He."

At this moment, Lin Sitao seemed to be turning his back on the customer.He finally plucked up his courage, walked up to He Xian, stretched out his hand and gently pressed his shoulder: "Director He, it's time to take a shower, and go to bed after taking a shower."

Only then did He Xian slowly open his eyes, his eyes were red, and he stared blankly at Lin Sitao, as if he didn't recognize who he was for a moment.

"Okay..." After two or three seconds, He Xian said hoarsely.

After taking a bath, He Xian brought Lin Sitao a blanket.The sofa in the room is a sofa bed when folded down.Lin Sitao spread out the blanket and prepared to sleep.But He Xian also covered himself with a blanket, and was lying on another sofa, staring at him with a contemplative expression.

Lin Sitao asked him, "Don't you sleep?"

He Xian didn't answer, but asked him instead: "You haven't graduated from high school yet, have you?"

Lin Sitao let out a "hmm".

If you just want to earn some pocket money for fun during the summer vacation, there are more places to choose from. There are many odd jobs for a few hours in the business district, which is much easier.There is usually only one reason for a seventeen or eighteen-year-old student to work on a construction site - family background.

"Even if the Seventh Middle School is not a key high school, there should still be a lot of college entrance examinations to go to university every year, right?" He Xian said casually.

Lin Sitao defended his alma mater: "This year, five students passed the exam."

He Xian said softly, "What are you going to do after summer vacation?"

Lin Sitao blinked and said, "I want to work quickly, I should work early. They say that as long as you work hard on the construction site, you will earn a lot."

"Who said that?"

"Master Chen, and my landlord."

He Xian said, "You should study."

The boy stopped talking.He Xian regretted for a moment.He didn't know this man, didn't know what he had been through.There are too many unfortunate families in the world, many children have to think about livelihood prematurely, and finishing high school has become a luxury for them.

He Xian turned off the bright ceiling lamp, leaving only a small dim table lamp.It is in perfect harmony with the subtle music on the TV, forming a warm protective cover.Isolate them from the storm outside the window, like a safe island.

"Go to sleep," he said.
