Out of place
Chapter 54
Xiang Xi has always felt that he has a thick skin. Over the years of cheating and abducting, he has been kicked out, scolded and beaten, but he has never felt particularly embarrassed.
But during this kind of delicate time between the two of them, he deeply felt that thick-skinned people have different types, and he belongs to the type of thick-skinned people who do bad things.
Cheng Boyan is a thick-skinned hooligan.
And it's premium.
The extra thick kind.
Xiang Xi didn't think about the relationship between him and Cheng Boyan, or that he treats Cheng Boyan and Cheng Boyan treats him. If Cheng Boyan wants to kiss, touch...he won't refuse, and he will feel very comfortable and his heartbeat will speed up , will blush, will be excited.
But he was very embarrassed to say this.
I want to kiss you.
Active tongue.
Also make a report.
He didn't know how thick-skinned Cheng Boyan was able to say such words, anyway, he stared at Cheng Boyan for a long time, and didn't know whether to say approval or not.
During the few seconds he was pondering back and forth, Cheng Boyan had already leaned over, and his lemony breath swept across his face.
"I haven't approved it yet." Xiang Xi looked at the bridge of his nose cross-eyed.
"I'll just report it casually," Cheng Boyan said, propping his hand on the wall above his head, and lightly touching his lips, his voice was very low, "Your reply is the same for everything."
Xiang Xi was a little dizzy, he didn't know if it was because of cross-eyes or because of Cheng Boyan's nice whisper, he didn't speak again.
Gently moving forward to meet him, Cheng Boyan's lips pressed tightly together.
Xiang Xi is no stranger to moving his tongue. It's not the first time for Cheng Boyan to do it, but this time it feels completely different.
There was no more fright and bewilderment, when Cheng Boyan's tongue was gently pushed in between the teeth, Xiang Xi only felt his heart beating from bang bang to bang bang bang bang, and then he went all the way along like a machine gun was fired Da da da da da da, it made my breathing flustered.
Fortunately, I didn't catch a cold, otherwise I would have to spit out my nose.
Then he was beaten up by Cheng Jiepi Jiuduan...
Xiang Xi's mind was in a mess and he didn't know what to think. Cheng Boyan twitched the provocative tip of his tongue in his mouth, touching and entangled again and again, making his body like a loach on fire, twisting and twisting, so Everywhere was burned.
Cheng Boyan put his hand on his waist, then groped into his clothes, and slowly slid down his waist to his back, he hugged Cheng Boyan, and grabbed his back through the clothes, not knowing what he wanted to do .
But this made Cheng Boyan's arms around his waist tightened, and his hands rubbed his back and waist fiercely a few times, and the kiss was no longer a gentle entanglement.
Sucking and biting, the tip of the tongue, between the teeth...
Xiang Xi was a little out of breath.
But that's not the strongest feeling right now.
He hugged Cheng Boyan tightly, responding to his attack and teasing, his body was on fire, he just wanted to burn Cheng Boyan too.
Two people burn together, you burn, I burn too, everyone burns to really burn...
It wasn't until Xiang Xi wanted to cough for no reason but couldn't hold it back, that he reluctantly pushed Cheng Boyan away.
Cheng Boyan let go of him and looked at him very closely.
He pushed Cheng Boyan's face away, turned his head and coughed hard, he was already a little hypoxic, and he almost lost his breath when he coughed again.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Boyan patted him on the back, "Did I lick your throat?"
"I'm really licking my throat, I should vomit," Xiang Xi bent down for a long time, wanting to laugh and cough, and finally healed a bit, leaning against the wall and taking a deep breath, "Oh, I don't know what's wrong Suddenly want to cough."
"I have to go," Cheng Boyan glanced at the clock on the wall, "I kissed for 2 minutes."
"...Are you too idle?" Xiang Xi didn't know what to say, "Are you still keeping your watch on when you're doing this?"
"No," Cheng Boyan smiled and pulled up his clothes, slapped him on the buttocks, and then walked into the kitchen, "I just checked the time before kissing to see if I would be late."
"Then you go, you're going to be late? It's a 2-minute delay, it's terrible," Xiang Xi followed into the kitchen, and saw Cheng Boyan who was bending over to wash his face in front of the sink, "I... I'm convinced! Are you Don't you need to brush your teeth!"
"You don't need to brush your teeth...I'll just wash my face, I can't go out with my face covered in saliva." Cheng Boyan wiped his face.
"Is there...?" Xiang Xi touched his mouth.
"I don't know," Cheng Boyan leaned over and kissed him on the face, "Okay, I'm leaving, you can take the spare key from now on, don't give it to the guard, remember to charge your phone."
"Ah, I got it!" Xiang Xi shouted.
After Cheng Boyan left, Xiang Xi went to wash his face, he didn't do it for anything, he felt his face was burning badly, and his face in the mirror was still red with water droplets hanging on his face, it felt unnecessary to look at it Wipe, the temperature on the face alone can dry the water in less than 1 minute.
He pulled off the towel and wiped his face, then licked his lips again, the previous feeling suddenly came back, and he quickly rubbed the towel on his face again.
When I put the towel back, I realized that I was holding Cheng Boyan's.
Hehehe laughed happily for 2 minutes before he turned and went back to the kitchen.
The soymilk machine beeped, the soymilk was ready, Xiang Xi took a bowl, poured out a bowl, tasted it, the taste was not bad, but it was bland.
He added two more spoonfuls of sugar, took the bowl and sat down at the table in the living room.
The bread Cheng Boyan bought was whole wheat, it looked ugly, but it tasted good, Xiang Xi buried himself in eating a mouthful of soy milk and a mouthful of bread, his mind was still a little messed up, and from time to time he would think of the feeling just now, and then he would be touched by electricity. It seems to stand up a piece of excited hair...
He didn't realize he had eaten the whole bag until he reached for the bread and found an empty bag.
"Ah..." He lay down on the table, covering his stomach with his hands and rubbing it.
Xiang Xi didn't know if Cheng Boyan was late, but when he arrived at the supermarket, he was a few minutes later than usual, and Yu Baoquan had already opened the door and was sweeping the floor at the door.
"Sorry, sorry," Xiang Xi ran over, "I'm late."
"It's not too late, it's not time yet," Yu Baoquan looked at him, "You weren't in the store yesterday?"
"Yeah." Although Song Yi is allowed to be away from the store one or two nights a month, Xiang Xi is still a little embarrassed and takes the broom in Yu Baoquan's hand.
"Going to a friend's house?" Yu Baoquan asked while holding up his parasol, smiled after thinking about it, and said in a low voice, "Or went out with the girl?"
"Just at my friend's house," Xiang Xi swept the floor, "and it's me alone."
"Hey...boring." Yu Baoquan entered the store with a smile.
Xiang Xi tidied up the store, took the mobile phone into the hut and charged it up, when it turned on, several text messages and missed calls from Cheng Boyan popped up.
In addition to a few last night, there is another one sent in the half hour and a half.
Are your photos saved?
Xiang Xi was stunned for a moment, then he was amused, and sent Cheng Boyan a note, but he forgot.
Yesterday, I went to Cheng Boyan's house to save photos, but came back without doing anything.
No... or something.
Xiang Xi clicked his tongue, and jumped on the spot. Now he is no longer embarrassed like before, but he is starting to reminisce... He is quite thick-skinned.
Come and deposit it yourself when you have time, anyway, there is a key.
Looking at Cheng Boyan's text message, Xiang Xi took out the keys from his pocket and looked at them. The key to the door downstairs, the key to the room, and two other keys that I don't know what kind of keys are still a bit heavy in his hand. of.
Xiang Xi has never had any idea about keys. He has no keys of his own. When renting a house, he takes a key that has been held by many people after he came out of Zhaojiayao, and he has no sense of belonging.
Now, with this set of keys in his hand, Cheng Boyan has no landlord or tenant in his own house. He can go there at any time, cook and eat in the house, watch TV and sleep in the bedroom. Beat but didn't get beaten yesterday.
great feeling.
No more feeling of having nowhere to go.
There are activities in the stadium next to the supermarket in the past two days. There are many customers in the supermarket. There are many people shopping, many people looking at things, and there are also many people who follow things.
He has a lot of experience in this point, and he has done it a lot before.
Take some cigarettes, wine, etc., either for lack or for money, or for convenience.
He and Yu Baoquan walked slowly in the store, each responsible for half of the site, he didn't know if Yu Baoquan could recognize the thief, but he definitely could.
For example, the young boy who came in at almost noon.
It looks like a student from a nearby school. After entering, he walked slowly in front of the shelf of small electrical appliances, picking up something from time to time to have a look.
It looks like an ordinary customer who is picking something, but Xiang Xi can be sure that he is going to steal something, a little nervous, his eyes are never on the things he is holding in his hand, and he looks like he is looking at things and puts on a bit Too focused.
Xiang Xi walked into the aisle of the shelf next to him, walked slowly, and looked at him from the gap in the shelf.
Sure enough, within a few steps, the boy took a small electric fan the size of a palm, turned it on and pretended to try it out, and slowly moved towards the bag beside him.
"Hey," Xiang Xi called out to him from the side of the shelf, his voice was not high enough for him to hear, "this can't be unpacked."
The boy was startled, he raised his hand suddenly, and his eyes were full of panic.
"There is a trial one at the cash register," Xiang Xi pointed, "You can go over there and try that."
"Oh." The boy put the small electric fan in his hand back on the shelf, looked at the shelf while walking slowly towards the door, and finally walked out of the supermarket.
Xiang Xi went over and put the small fan back into the box and arranged it again.
There are so many people today, Xiang Xi didn't even have time to rest on the shelves in the morning, and a deliveryman came over in the middle, helping to move for a long time.
There were many people at noon, many people came to buy snacks, they couldn't help but leave one person outside during the meal, and took turns to enter the lounge one by one to eat.
Xiang Xi was the last one to eat, and there were quite a lot of people in the shop when he came out after eating.
"There must be activities in this gymnasium every day, Brother Song must be happy." Yu Baoquan said with a smile.
"He's not happy. He hasn't been seen for the past two days. He came here in the morning and ran away because he was annoyed by the crowd." Zhang Xin came over with a mop. Motuo, someone just spilled the milk."
"I'll go." Yu Baoquan took the mop and passed.
There was a large puddle of milk at the door, and Yu Baoquan dragged it a few times. Someone stepped in and almost stepped on the mop, so he quickly said, "I'm sorry."
"It's all right," the man said.
Xiang Xi was arranging the messed things on the shelves, when he heard the sound, he turned his head suddenly.
When he saw the person who entered the door clearly, he almost couldn't believe his eyes, and controlled himself so as not to yell out.
Steamed bun?
Mantou looked at him, didn't say hello, and didn't show any expression, just walked along the food shelf like an ordinary customer.
Xiang Xi hesitated for a moment, put the things in his hands away, and followed slowly.
Mantou has lost a lot of weight. He used to always laugh at him for being thin, but now he is as thin as a fishing rod, and he is still lame.
The clothes on his body were also quite dirty, looking like they hadn't been changed for a few days, Xiang Xi could smell the sour sweat on the steamed buns three steps away.
Steamed buns were not like this before, they were very particular, and smelling on their bodies was absolutely intolerable.
"Does this have a milk flavor?" Mantou picked up a box of biscuits and looked at it, then turned to ask him.
"Yes," Xiang Xi nodded, went over and handed him a box of milk-flavored ones, then lowered his voice, "What's the matter with you!"
"I knew you were here a long time ago." Mantou looked down at the box, then reached for another box, looked back and forth between the two boxes, "I also knew you were looking for me."
Mantou's pretending ability is much more professional than that of the previous kid, and he looks like a customer who is asking and picking things from the salesperson.
"What the hell is going on with you?" Xiang Xi only focused on this matter and asked.
"I couldn't get out at first," Mantou tapped his fingers on the box, speaking quickly, "Then he got sick and almost died, and the second pan came looking for me again, so he was hiding around, someone said You ran away, and I thought it must be because of me, so I wanted to find you..."
"The main point is the money." Xiang Xi said.
"Tan Xiaokang cheated my money away, I can't find him..." Mantou said it very calmly, it seems that he has become numb because the incident has passed for more than half a year.
"Tan Xiaokang?" Xiang Xi almost couldn't suppress his voice, he clenched his hands hard, and made two crackling noises from his knuckles.
"Don't mention it, it's over, I'm here today to see you, to say goodbye." Mantou put the box back on the shelf, picked out a smaller box of cookies and took it.
"Where are you going?" Xiang Xi stared at Mantou's face, feeling something was wrong, "Going home?"
"I think you're fine," Mantou turned to look at him, "You're fine, Xiao Zhan, it's not easy for people like us to walk, especially a good road."
Xiang Xi didn't speak.
"You always say that I'm not your friend, let me think about it, it's better not to be, no one sees me coming here," Mantou limped towards the cashier with a cookie, then turned his head and whispered , "You are fine, don't look for me again, just know that you treat me as a friend."
Xiang Xi stood there without moving or speaking, watching Mantou limping to the cashier, paying the money, and limping slowly out of the supermarket with the small box of cookies.
The sun at noon was very strong, and the whitish sunlight shone so brightly that it was almost impossible to open your eyes.
When Xiang Xi walked out of the gate of the supermarket, the figure of Mantou seemed to have been melted and disappeared into the white light that filled the entire field of vision.
Something might happen to Mantou.
This was Xiang Xi's first reaction.
But he didn't ask, nor did he stop Mantou.
People are different, he is different from ordinary people in this world, he tries hard to integrate into "normal" life little by little, because he has Cheng Boyan.
From the moment Cheng Boyan stretched out his hand to him, he and Mantou were different.
It is also produced by Zhaojiayao, but the steamed buns are struggling to slide to another different road, helpless and seemingly irreversible, this road is parallel to Zhaojiayao, maybe intersecting, maybe even downward.
And he is not Cheng Boyan.
He doesn't have the capital and strength to reach out to Mantou.
Even if he stretched out his hand, he didn't have the strength to hold the steamed bun. If he tried to stretch out his hand out of control, it might make Cheng Boyan who was pulling him stumble.
Mantou also knows this.
you are fine.He said this twice.
They all have this kind of self-knowledge. Such people take this kind of path. This is the norm, and this is the trajectory of them. Even Uncle Ping and Er Pan follow this kind of path and lead to the same goal by different routes.
There are very few people who can take the "good" road.
Just as he was reluctant to let a "normal person" like Cheng Boyan be affected by him, Mantou also didn't want him to be dragged back into the darkness.
Even if the world is full of light, if you don't pay attention, you will still encounter shadows.
Xiang Xi stood in the store all afternoon, looking at the customers coming in and out, but never saw Mantou, or anyone similar to Mantou.
In this world, the past between him and Mantou, and the unknowable future of Mantou are really invisible to anyone, as if they never existed.
With such a small divergence between him and Mantou, maybe there will be no day when we will see each other again.
After get off work, Xiang Xi took a shower, went out to buy some fast food and came back, sitting in the hut while watching TV while eating.
Can't tell what it feels like.
Helplessness is the greatest experience.
Cheng Boyan didn't get off work on time again today, and when he called, it was past eight o'clock.
"Have you eaten?" Cheng Boyan asked him.
"I get off work on time," Xiang Xi looked at the lunch box on the table, got up and threw the box into the trash can outside the door, "Are you tired today?"
"Well, I'm really tired," Cheng Boyan's voice was obviously exhausted, "Are you coming to save photos at night?"
"No, go back, eat something and sleep," Xiang Xi sighed, "Will you die from overwork?"
"No, I didn't sleep for three days before and didn't die," Cheng Boyan laughed, "I'll tell you something, I asked the boss today, the address of Mr. Lu, you... still want to go Are you looking for him?"
"Go," Xiang Xi didn't even think about it, "I'm going."
Yes, definitely go.
you are fine.
you are fine.
The sound of steamed buns rang back and forth in his ears.
That's right, all right, this is the most important thing he can and should do, and he can't let go of any opportunity that can maintain and help him continue on this "good road".
"Then remember it." Cheng Boyan said.
"Send it to me, I'll write the address with a pen until tomorrow morning." Xiang Xi scratched his head.
"Oh, I forgot, then I'll send you a text message later," Cheng Boyan yawned, "I don't even want to eat, I just go back to bed and forget it."
Speaking of sleeping, Xiang Xi suddenly remembered that he hadn't changed Cheng Boyan's sheets, and immediately felt a little sorry: "I forgot to change the sheets for you."
"I didn't ask you to change it again," Cheng Boyan smiled, "I will change it tomorrow when I have time."
"Then can you bear it?" Xiang Xi was a little worried.
"I told you I'm not a clean freak." Cheng Boyan sighed.
"Can we not say such things that are so fake when you hear them in the future?" Xiang Xi clicked his tongue, "You say you don't have a clean freak, it's as fake as I say I have a unique culture."
Cheng Boyan didn't speak, and he laughed for a long time on the phone before stopping.
"Isn't it better to be sincere?" Xiang Xi added.
"I won't be poor with you anymore," Cheng Boyan said with a smile, "I'll go back first, and I'll call you if I haven't fallen asleep at ten o'clock at night."
"En." Xiang Xi responded.
"Kiss one." Cheng Boyan suddenly lowered his voice.
"Ah?" Xiang Xi was stunned. When Cheng Boyan spoke in a low voice, it was pleasant to hear. When the voice passed through the earpiece and entered his ears, it made his right ear, right elbow, right waist and right leg crackle and flash all the way. Suddenly, he fell onto the bed, "Oh, I'm paralyzed..."
"Hemiplegic?" Cheng Boyan was stunned, and after a few seconds he said, "It's okay to be hemiplegic, and the mouth is not paralyzed. Come and kiss me."
"Is there any humanity?" Xiang Xile said, "I'm paralyzed...you can say a few more words, lower your voice and say that."
"Why?" Cheng Boyan lowered his voice cooperatively.
"It sounds good," Xiang Xi lay on the bed and closed his eyes, "Let's say a few more words."
"Xiang Xi, are you fascinated by me...you are handsome and have a nice voice..." Cheng Boyan said in a low voice, but he didn't laugh.
"It's really shameless." Xiang Xi said happily.
"That's a bit shameless," Cheng Boyan laughed, and continued to whisper, "But what should I do if I am a shameless person behind my back, why don't I read you some orthopedic cases in a book How about..."
Xiang Xi didn't speak, and he didn't hear what Cheng Boyan said later, but felt that the voice was scratching his ears gently, it was very nice, and very...sexy.
"The effect of the treatment was not good, so I was discharged from the hospital and went home to rest for more than ten days. After that, I was admitted to the hospital again for treatment, and underwent ozone therapy. The gluteal epithelial nerve..." Cheng Boyan didn't know what he was thinking.
"I don't understand," Xiang Xi said in a low voice, just for a while, listening to Cheng Boyan's voice, he suddenly felt uncontrollable, "Okay."
"Huh?" Cheng Boyan stopped, "Have you heard enough?"
"Enough listening, you go home," Xiang Xi said, "Bye!"
Before Cheng Boyan could speak, Xiang Xi hung up the phone.
Then he threw the phone on the bed, turned over and lay on his side, arched his waist, and stretched out his hand to pull his pants.
This fucking is so bloody...
But during this kind of delicate time between the two of them, he deeply felt that thick-skinned people have different types, and he belongs to the type of thick-skinned people who do bad things.
Cheng Boyan is a thick-skinned hooligan.
And it's premium.
The extra thick kind.
Xiang Xi didn't think about the relationship between him and Cheng Boyan, or that he treats Cheng Boyan and Cheng Boyan treats him. If Cheng Boyan wants to kiss, touch...he won't refuse, and he will feel very comfortable and his heartbeat will speed up , will blush, will be excited.
But he was very embarrassed to say this.
I want to kiss you.
Active tongue.
Also make a report.
He didn't know how thick-skinned Cheng Boyan was able to say such words, anyway, he stared at Cheng Boyan for a long time, and didn't know whether to say approval or not.
During the few seconds he was pondering back and forth, Cheng Boyan had already leaned over, and his lemony breath swept across his face.
"I haven't approved it yet." Xiang Xi looked at the bridge of his nose cross-eyed.
"I'll just report it casually," Cheng Boyan said, propping his hand on the wall above his head, and lightly touching his lips, his voice was very low, "Your reply is the same for everything."
Xiang Xi was a little dizzy, he didn't know if it was because of cross-eyes or because of Cheng Boyan's nice whisper, he didn't speak again.
Gently moving forward to meet him, Cheng Boyan's lips pressed tightly together.
Xiang Xi is no stranger to moving his tongue. It's not the first time for Cheng Boyan to do it, but this time it feels completely different.
There was no more fright and bewilderment, when Cheng Boyan's tongue was gently pushed in between the teeth, Xiang Xi only felt his heart beating from bang bang to bang bang bang bang, and then he went all the way along like a machine gun was fired Da da da da da da, it made my breathing flustered.
Fortunately, I didn't catch a cold, otherwise I would have to spit out my nose.
Then he was beaten up by Cheng Jiepi Jiuduan...
Xiang Xi's mind was in a mess and he didn't know what to think. Cheng Boyan twitched the provocative tip of his tongue in his mouth, touching and entangled again and again, making his body like a loach on fire, twisting and twisting, so Everywhere was burned.
Cheng Boyan put his hand on his waist, then groped into his clothes, and slowly slid down his waist to his back, he hugged Cheng Boyan, and grabbed his back through the clothes, not knowing what he wanted to do .
But this made Cheng Boyan's arms around his waist tightened, and his hands rubbed his back and waist fiercely a few times, and the kiss was no longer a gentle entanglement.
Sucking and biting, the tip of the tongue, between the teeth...
Xiang Xi was a little out of breath.
But that's not the strongest feeling right now.
He hugged Cheng Boyan tightly, responding to his attack and teasing, his body was on fire, he just wanted to burn Cheng Boyan too.
Two people burn together, you burn, I burn too, everyone burns to really burn...
It wasn't until Xiang Xi wanted to cough for no reason but couldn't hold it back, that he reluctantly pushed Cheng Boyan away.
Cheng Boyan let go of him and looked at him very closely.
He pushed Cheng Boyan's face away, turned his head and coughed hard, he was already a little hypoxic, and he almost lost his breath when he coughed again.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Boyan patted him on the back, "Did I lick your throat?"
"I'm really licking my throat, I should vomit," Xiang Xi bent down for a long time, wanting to laugh and cough, and finally healed a bit, leaning against the wall and taking a deep breath, "Oh, I don't know what's wrong Suddenly want to cough."
"I have to go," Cheng Boyan glanced at the clock on the wall, "I kissed for 2 minutes."
"...Are you too idle?" Xiang Xi didn't know what to say, "Are you still keeping your watch on when you're doing this?"
"No," Cheng Boyan smiled and pulled up his clothes, slapped him on the buttocks, and then walked into the kitchen, "I just checked the time before kissing to see if I would be late."
"Then you go, you're going to be late? It's a 2-minute delay, it's terrible," Xiang Xi followed into the kitchen, and saw Cheng Boyan who was bending over to wash his face in front of the sink, "I... I'm convinced! Are you Don't you need to brush your teeth!"
"You don't need to brush your teeth...I'll just wash my face, I can't go out with my face covered in saliva." Cheng Boyan wiped his face.
"Is there...?" Xiang Xi touched his mouth.
"I don't know," Cheng Boyan leaned over and kissed him on the face, "Okay, I'm leaving, you can take the spare key from now on, don't give it to the guard, remember to charge your phone."
"Ah, I got it!" Xiang Xi shouted.
After Cheng Boyan left, Xiang Xi went to wash his face, he didn't do it for anything, he felt his face was burning badly, and his face in the mirror was still red with water droplets hanging on his face, it felt unnecessary to look at it Wipe, the temperature on the face alone can dry the water in less than 1 minute.
He pulled off the towel and wiped his face, then licked his lips again, the previous feeling suddenly came back, and he quickly rubbed the towel on his face again.
When I put the towel back, I realized that I was holding Cheng Boyan's.
Hehehe laughed happily for 2 minutes before he turned and went back to the kitchen.
The soymilk machine beeped, the soymilk was ready, Xiang Xi took a bowl, poured out a bowl, tasted it, the taste was not bad, but it was bland.
He added two more spoonfuls of sugar, took the bowl and sat down at the table in the living room.
The bread Cheng Boyan bought was whole wheat, it looked ugly, but it tasted good, Xiang Xi buried himself in eating a mouthful of soy milk and a mouthful of bread, his mind was still a little messed up, and from time to time he would think of the feeling just now, and then he would be touched by electricity. It seems to stand up a piece of excited hair...
He didn't realize he had eaten the whole bag until he reached for the bread and found an empty bag.
"Ah..." He lay down on the table, covering his stomach with his hands and rubbing it.
Xiang Xi didn't know if Cheng Boyan was late, but when he arrived at the supermarket, he was a few minutes later than usual, and Yu Baoquan had already opened the door and was sweeping the floor at the door.
"Sorry, sorry," Xiang Xi ran over, "I'm late."
"It's not too late, it's not time yet," Yu Baoquan looked at him, "You weren't in the store yesterday?"
"Yeah." Although Song Yi is allowed to be away from the store one or two nights a month, Xiang Xi is still a little embarrassed and takes the broom in Yu Baoquan's hand.
"Going to a friend's house?" Yu Baoquan asked while holding up his parasol, smiled after thinking about it, and said in a low voice, "Or went out with the girl?"
"Just at my friend's house," Xiang Xi swept the floor, "and it's me alone."
"Hey...boring." Yu Baoquan entered the store with a smile.
Xiang Xi tidied up the store, took the mobile phone into the hut and charged it up, when it turned on, several text messages and missed calls from Cheng Boyan popped up.
In addition to a few last night, there is another one sent in the half hour and a half.
Are your photos saved?
Xiang Xi was stunned for a moment, then he was amused, and sent Cheng Boyan a note, but he forgot.
Yesterday, I went to Cheng Boyan's house to save photos, but came back without doing anything.
No... or something.
Xiang Xi clicked his tongue, and jumped on the spot. Now he is no longer embarrassed like before, but he is starting to reminisce... He is quite thick-skinned.
Come and deposit it yourself when you have time, anyway, there is a key.
Looking at Cheng Boyan's text message, Xiang Xi took out the keys from his pocket and looked at them. The key to the door downstairs, the key to the room, and two other keys that I don't know what kind of keys are still a bit heavy in his hand. of.
Xiang Xi has never had any idea about keys. He has no keys of his own. When renting a house, he takes a key that has been held by many people after he came out of Zhaojiayao, and he has no sense of belonging.
Now, with this set of keys in his hand, Cheng Boyan has no landlord or tenant in his own house. He can go there at any time, cook and eat in the house, watch TV and sleep in the bedroom. Beat but didn't get beaten yesterday.
great feeling.
No more feeling of having nowhere to go.
There are activities in the stadium next to the supermarket in the past two days. There are many customers in the supermarket. There are many people shopping, many people looking at things, and there are also many people who follow things.
He has a lot of experience in this point, and he has done it a lot before.
Take some cigarettes, wine, etc., either for lack or for money, or for convenience.
He and Yu Baoquan walked slowly in the store, each responsible for half of the site, he didn't know if Yu Baoquan could recognize the thief, but he definitely could.
For example, the young boy who came in at almost noon.
It looks like a student from a nearby school. After entering, he walked slowly in front of the shelf of small electrical appliances, picking up something from time to time to have a look.

The boy was startled, he raised his hand suddenly, and his eyes were full of panic.
"There is a trial one at the cash register," Xiang Xi pointed, "You can go over there and try that."
"Oh." The boy put the small electric fan in his hand back on the shelf, looked at the shelf while walking slowly towards the door, and finally walked out of the supermarket.
Xiang Xi went over and put the small fan back into the box and arranged it again.
There are so many people today, Xiang Xi didn't even have time to rest on the shelves in the morning, and a deliveryman came over in the middle, helping to move for a long time.
There were many people at noon, many people came to buy snacks, they couldn't help but leave one person outside during the meal, and took turns to enter the lounge one by one to eat.
Xiang Xi was the last one to eat, and there were quite a lot of people in the shop when he came out after eating.
"There must be activities in this gymnasium every day, Brother Song must be happy." Yu Baoquan said with a smile.
"He's not happy. He hasn't been seen for the past two days. He came here in the morning and ran away because he was annoyed by the crowd." Zhang Xin came over with a mop. Motuo, someone just spilled the milk."
"I'll go." Yu Baoquan took the mop and passed.
There was a large puddle of milk at the door, and Yu Baoquan dragged it a few times. Someone stepped in and almost stepped on the mop, so he quickly said, "I'm sorry."
"It's all right," the man said.
Xiang Xi was arranging the messed things on the shelves, when he heard the sound, he turned his head suddenly.
When he saw the person who entered the door clearly, he almost couldn't believe his eyes, and controlled himself so as not to yell out.
Steamed bun?
Mantou looked at him, didn't say hello, and didn't show any expression, just walked along the food shelf like an ordinary customer.
Xiang Xi hesitated for a moment, put the things in his hands away, and followed slowly.
Mantou has lost a lot of weight. He used to always laugh at him for being thin, but now he is as thin as a fishing rod, and he is still lame.
The clothes on his body were also quite dirty, looking like they hadn't been changed for a few days, Xiang Xi could smell the sour sweat on the steamed buns three steps away.
Steamed buns were not like this before, they were very particular, and smelling on their bodies was absolutely intolerable.
"Does this have a milk flavor?" Mantou picked up a box of biscuits and looked at it, then turned to ask him.
"Yes," Xiang Xi nodded, went over and handed him a box of milk-flavored ones, then lowered his voice, "What's the matter with you!"
"I knew you were here a long time ago." Mantou looked down at the box, then reached for another box, looked back and forth between the two boxes, "I also knew you were looking for me."
Mantou's pretending ability is much more professional than that of the previous kid, and he looks like a customer who is asking and picking things from the salesperson.
"What the hell is going on with you?" Xiang Xi only focused on this matter and asked.
"I couldn't get out at first," Mantou tapped his fingers on the box, speaking quickly, "Then he got sick and almost died, and the second pan came looking for me again, so he was hiding around, someone said You ran away, and I thought it must be because of me, so I wanted to find you..."
"The main point is the money." Xiang Xi said.
"Tan Xiaokang cheated my money away, I can't find him..." Mantou said it very calmly, it seems that he has become numb because the incident has passed for more than half a year.
"Tan Xiaokang?" Xiang Xi almost couldn't suppress his voice, he clenched his hands hard, and made two crackling noises from his knuckles.
"Don't mention it, it's over, I'm here today to see you, to say goodbye." Mantou put the box back on the shelf, picked out a smaller box of cookies and took it.
"Where are you going?" Xiang Xi stared at Mantou's face, feeling something was wrong, "Going home?"
"I think you're fine," Mantou turned to look at him, "You're fine, Xiao Zhan, it's not easy for people like us to walk, especially a good road."
Xiang Xi didn't speak.
"You always say that I'm not your friend, let me think about it, it's better not to be, no one sees me coming here," Mantou limped towards the cashier with a cookie, then turned his head and whispered , "You are fine, don't look for me again, just know that you treat me as a friend."
Xiang Xi stood there without moving or speaking, watching Mantou limping to the cashier, paying the money, and limping slowly out of the supermarket with the small box of cookies.
The sun at noon was very strong, and the whitish sunlight shone so brightly that it was almost impossible to open your eyes.
When Xiang Xi walked out of the gate of the supermarket, the figure of Mantou seemed to have been melted and disappeared into the white light that filled the entire field of vision.
Something might happen to Mantou.
This was Xiang Xi's first reaction.
But he didn't ask, nor did he stop Mantou.
People are different, he is different from ordinary people in this world, he tries hard to integrate into "normal" life little by little, because he has Cheng Boyan.
From the moment Cheng Boyan stretched out his hand to him, he and Mantou were different.
It is also produced by Zhaojiayao, but the steamed buns are struggling to slide to another different road, helpless and seemingly irreversible, this road is parallel to Zhaojiayao, maybe intersecting, maybe even downward.
And he is not Cheng Boyan.
He doesn't have the capital and strength to reach out to Mantou.
Even if he stretched out his hand, he didn't have the strength to hold the steamed bun. If he tried to stretch out his hand out of control, it might make Cheng Boyan who was pulling him stumble.
Mantou also knows this.
you are fine.He said this twice.
They all have this kind of self-knowledge. Such people take this kind of path. This is the norm, and this is the trajectory of them. Even Uncle Ping and Er Pan follow this kind of path and lead to the same goal by different routes.
There are very few people who can take the "good" road.
Just as he was reluctant to let a "normal person" like Cheng Boyan be affected by him, Mantou also didn't want him to be dragged back into the darkness.
Even if the world is full of light, if you don't pay attention, you will still encounter shadows.
Xiang Xi stood in the store all afternoon, looking at the customers coming in and out, but never saw Mantou, or anyone similar to Mantou.
In this world, the past between him and Mantou, and the unknowable future of Mantou are really invisible to anyone, as if they never existed.
With such a small divergence between him and Mantou, maybe there will be no day when we will see each other again.
After get off work, Xiang Xi took a shower, went out to buy some fast food and came back, sitting in the hut while watching TV while eating.
Can't tell what it feels like.
Helplessness is the greatest experience.
Cheng Boyan didn't get off work on time again today, and when he called, it was past eight o'clock.
"Have you eaten?" Cheng Boyan asked him.
"I get off work on time," Xiang Xi looked at the lunch box on the table, got up and threw the box into the trash can outside the door, "Are you tired today?"
"Well, I'm really tired," Cheng Boyan's voice was obviously exhausted, "Are you coming to save photos at night?"
"No, go back, eat something and sleep," Xiang Xi sighed, "Will you die from overwork?"
"No, I didn't sleep for three days before and didn't die," Cheng Boyan laughed, "I'll tell you something, I asked the boss today, the address of Mr. Lu, you... still want to go Are you looking for him?"
"Go," Xiang Xi didn't even think about it, "I'm going."
Yes, definitely go.
you are fine.
you are fine.
The sound of steamed buns rang back and forth in his ears.
That's right, all right, this is the most important thing he can and should do, and he can't let go of any opportunity that can maintain and help him continue on this "good road".
"Then remember it." Cheng Boyan said.
"Send it to me, I'll write the address with a pen until tomorrow morning." Xiang Xi scratched his head.
"Oh, I forgot, then I'll send you a text message later," Cheng Boyan yawned, "I don't even want to eat, I just go back to bed and forget it."
Speaking of sleeping, Xiang Xi suddenly remembered that he hadn't changed Cheng Boyan's sheets, and immediately felt a little sorry: "I forgot to change the sheets for you."
"I didn't ask you to change it again," Cheng Boyan smiled, "I will change it tomorrow when I have time."
"Then can you bear it?" Xiang Xi was a little worried.
"I told you I'm not a clean freak." Cheng Boyan sighed.
"Can we not say such things that are so fake when you hear them in the future?" Xiang Xi clicked his tongue, "You say you don't have a clean freak, it's as fake as I say I have a unique culture."
Cheng Boyan didn't speak, and he laughed for a long time on the phone before stopping.
"Isn't it better to be sincere?" Xiang Xi added.
"I won't be poor with you anymore," Cheng Boyan said with a smile, "I'll go back first, and I'll call you if I haven't fallen asleep at ten o'clock at night."
"En." Xiang Xi responded.
"Kiss one." Cheng Boyan suddenly lowered his voice.
"Ah?" Xiang Xi was stunned. When Cheng Boyan spoke in a low voice, it was pleasant to hear. When the voice passed through the earpiece and entered his ears, it made his right ear, right elbow, right waist and right leg crackle and flash all the way. Suddenly, he fell onto the bed, "Oh, I'm paralyzed..."
"Hemiplegic?" Cheng Boyan was stunned, and after a few seconds he said, "It's okay to be hemiplegic, and the mouth is not paralyzed. Come and kiss me."
"Is there any humanity?" Xiang Xile said, "I'm paralyzed...you can say a few more words, lower your voice and say that."
"Why?" Cheng Boyan lowered his voice cooperatively.
"It sounds good," Xiang Xi lay on the bed and closed his eyes, "Let's say a few more words."
"Xiang Xi, are you fascinated by me...you are handsome and have a nice voice..." Cheng Boyan said in a low voice, but he didn't laugh.
"It's really shameless." Xiang Xi said happily.
"That's a bit shameless," Cheng Boyan laughed, and continued to whisper, "But what should I do if I am a shameless person behind my back, why don't I read you some orthopedic cases in a book How about..."
Xiang Xi didn't speak, and he didn't hear what Cheng Boyan said later, but felt that the voice was scratching his ears gently, it was very nice, and very...sexy.
"The effect of the treatment was not good, so I was discharged from the hospital and went home to rest for more than ten days. After that, I was admitted to the hospital again for treatment, and underwent ozone therapy. The gluteal epithelial nerve..." Cheng Boyan didn't know what he was thinking.
"I don't understand," Xiang Xi said in a low voice, just for a while, listening to Cheng Boyan's voice, he suddenly felt uncontrollable, "Okay."
"Huh?" Cheng Boyan stopped, "Have you heard enough?"
"Enough listening, you go home," Xiang Xi said, "Bye!"
Before Cheng Boyan could speak, Xiang Xi hung up the phone.
Then he threw the phone on the bed, turned over and lay on his side, arched his waist, and stretched out his hand to pull his pants.
This fucking is so bloody...
