Number One Player

Men in black, holding black umbrellas, passed through the vast woodland under the low black clouds. These men in black suits were shoulder to shoulder. Although they were crowded, they were in order. Their steps were uniform. The stone steps wet with the raindrops, and the thin grass covered with water droplets ran across their trouser legs, leaving a very faint trace immediately.The cool wind carried the icy water vapor over the mountains and ridges, roaring through the desolate and grand world, and rushed to the distance.

Su Hang looked ahead, and his steps were extremely steady. He spread out from the previous approach and passed between two groups of men standing on both sides, and finally walked in front of the tombstone, stood still, and bowed deeply.

Big raindrops shattered against the umbrella surface, and he retreated, backed away.

The black umbrellas are densely packed together, looking down from a high altitude, like a gathering of crows.When looking down the mountain, the world is full of mist and confusion.Su Hang lit a cigarette, took a puff, watched the smoke dissipate in the water vapor, and sighed softly.

He looked up from under the umbrella, slightly startled.

The child of the He family, named He Qi, stood quietly beside the newly completed tombstone, holding a black umbrella and wearing the same standard suit, which made people feel slightly astonished for a moment.He was originally young and vigorous, but dressed like this, he didn't seem to be out of harmony, on the contrary, he had a different kind of youthful maturity.

Everyone bowed in front of the tombstone. With the sound of rain, the ceremony was almost over, and the crowd gradually dispersed, leaving only the two of them in the blink of an eye.

Suhang didn't know why the kid from the He family didn't go with the crowd, and he didn't even want to go with him.

Suhang went over with an umbrella, looked at the black and white photo of the silver-haired old man on the tombstone, and said softly, "My condolences."

He Qi didn't speak. He lowered his head and tried his best to suppress himself, but he couldn't control his trembling shoulders.Suhang's expression changed slightly. He threw away the umbrella in his hand, walked under He Qi's umbrella, pulled him over forcefully, pressed his forehead to his shoulder, and sighed, "It's okay."

Hot tears fell on Suhang's neck and collar, and then rolled down the texture.The backlog of emotions was like a broken gate, and he could no longer bear it. He Qi grabbed Su Hang's clothes and choked, "I... I will... I will be alone in the future."

He seldom loses his composure like this. When he is in front of Suhang, he seldom expresses his emotions so directly.

Suhang raised his hand and patted him on the back lightly, "No, how could you be alone, no." He tilted his head, and his lips brushed He Qi's hair like wings shallow.

"Child." Su Hang stretched out his hand and held up one side of his chin weakly, sticking to the bridge of his nose, "Don't cry, if you continue to cry, my heart will hurt."

He Qi lowered his eyes, making his eyelashes even more thick and slender, and the arc almost fell on the pulp of Su Hang's thumb.The world was so silent that only the rustling wind and the pattering rain could be heard. After a long time, He Qi turned his eyes to the other side and asked, "Aren't you leaving today?"

Maybe it was because he had just cried, his voice didn't sound as cold as usual, it was a little hoarse, as if his Adam's apple was pressed by something.

How could you not leave?Hearing the news of the death of the old Patriarch of the He family, he hurried over with a lot of things waiting to be dealt with.As if the answer had been foreshadowed after being speechless, they fell silent to each other. Around them, there was heavy rain all over the world, making thousands of puddles, large and small, on the ground.Suhang looked at He Qi, just looked at him like this, saw his black eyelashes sweeping out the arc at the end of his eyes, and the end of his eyes was still dyed deep red on that fair and indifferent face, as if there was an inexplicable feeling. The attractiveness makes it difficult to look away, "Don't go."

The sound was too soft, and was immediately drowned in the sound of heavy rain all over the world, making it difficult to hear clearly.

He Qi frowned slightly, as if he wanted to ask what he just said, but he just moved his lips, and Suhang had already raised his hand and pressed it on his brow bone, and his thumbs were gently pressing Caressing the end of He Qi's eyebrows, "I won't go." Suhang approached and pressed it against He Qi's ear, "I won't go."

He Qi looked at Suhang without blinking. Suhang's hair was still wet with water because of the action of dropping the umbrella and walking over.He Qi's nose was sore, he raised his hand and quickly wiped his face, nodded, and murmured, "Yeah."

Su Hang took the umbrella in his hand, pinched He Qi's little finger knuckles, "Have you gone back?"

"I... I want to stay a little longer."

"Okay, I'll accompany you."

When the emotions calmed down, and now there were only the two of us left, He Qi felt that the atmosphere was too delicate, so he silently picked up the umbrella that Suhang had thrown away, and ran away with it.

Suhang looked at him, with hidden emotions hidden in his eyes, and asked after a long time, "What are you going to do later?"

"Ah?" He Qi looked at him blankly.

"Want to go to my place? I can accompany you."

In this year, Suhang didn't come back much, and he couldn't meet He Qi all the time. When he met him occasionally, he had nothing to do, couldn't say a few words, and didn't have time to bring him some gifts.There are quite a few children in the He family's generation, but Suhang doesn't know anyone other than He Qi, so they always show him a little more sympathy.This is what he wanted, but in essence he didn't give much care to the child. Just now the child cried in front of him again, which really made Su Hang's heart ache.

He Qi stared at the subtle expression on Suhang's face carefully, and said carefully, "Don't you think I'm annoying?"

Suhang looked at He Qi, not knowing what to say for a moment.

It's not surprising that He Qi had such thoughts.How did he come back, Suhang didn't know, He Qi's mother died because of giving birth to him, and his father He Zhu died in his early years. Except for the old patriarch He Yixiang, no one in the He family would treat him sincerely, and now the old patriarch He He has already left, and he said that he is really not wrong at all.

But he is still so young and doesn't understand anything.

Suhang wanted to smoke again, but he felt that he could bear it in front of other children. He said softly, "We don't get along day and night, so there is nothing we don't like."

He Qi lowered his head again and stopped talking.

The truth is hard to hear, but Su Hang has to say, he can put aside the things in his hands now and stay with him, what about after that?In the future, he will still be left alone, which is a heavy and powerless fact to change.

·

When the two went back, it was already night, and Suhang had all the daily necessities here, so he flipped through a casual suit and threw it to He Qi, "Go take a shower and change your clothes, your trouser legs are soaked gone."

He Qi sat on the sofa, pinching the clothes that Suhang handed him, and asked for a while, "Does that mean I can stay here tonight?"

"Then what else?" Suhang was too busy explaining things and didn't have time to pay attention to him, and said, "It's fine if you want to go back."

He Qi couldn't tell whether Su Hang really wanted to keep him or was just a perfunctory one, but he knew that he wanted to stay.He saw that Su Hang was busy, so he was too embarrassed to disturb him, so he looked at him for a while, and then went to take a bath slowly.

When he came out of the shower, looking down from upstairs, Suhang was sitting on the sofa in the spacious living room on the first floor, probably processing documents or something, anyway, he was very serious.This yard is said to be specially built for Suhang, and it is said that it is Suhang’s own property. The balcony is a fully enclosed garden, filled with lush ornamental potted plants, and it was still raining outside at that time.He Qi stood in front of the semi-circular glass railing, watching the raindrops falling on the glass condense into a water column, he couldn't help raising his hand to touch it, he suddenly remembered that he came to this place and met Suhang for the first time here It was also a rainy day.

In fact, he waited there on purpose at that time, he just wanted to see Suhang again, but he didn't expect that after Suhang came out, he would walk towards him and let him see him off.

He really didn't know the way, but he didn't want to let Su Hang go like this, so he had to brazenly drag Su Hang's clothes and say those inexplicable words.

Although Suhang also said some inexplicable things to him later, he didn't feel angry when he heard it.

He didn't know why this happened, but he was not angry anyway.

"Have you washed it?"

Footsteps sounded suddenly behind him, He Qi looked back at him, nodded, "Well, it's all right."

"Okay, come down to eat."

Su Hang deliberately asked the kitchen to prepare some light food, fearing that He Qi would be in a bad mood today and would not feel comfortable eating too greasy food.

He Qi's appetite is really bad, but fortunately Suhang also asked him to prepare some seafood porridge, at least he drank a bowl.I didn't eat much food, and it was taken away again when it was full.

Things in Suhang were almost done. After dinner, the two of them watched TV on the sofa.

Su Hang peeled an orange casually, divided half of it and handed it to He Qi, and asked, "Doesn't it look good?"

"Ah?" He Qi took the orange, but didn't realize what Su Hang said for a moment.

"I asked you if you think this TV is boring?"

"Oh... no." He Qi looked at the male and female stars on TV that he didn't know, and said, "It's pretty good."

"Then why don't you watch TV and keep watching me?"

"..." He Qi was stunned, and silently stuffed the orange petals into his mouth, so he knew I was looking at him.

"Huh?" Su Hang raised his eyebrows, "What are you looking at me for? Why don't you tell me?"

"I said it."

"what?"

"nice."

"..." Now it was Su Hang's turn to be stunned. This kid, does he know what he is talking about?

After Suhang finished eating the oranges, he stood up and said, "Go to the room and sleep." There are many rooms here, but he doesn't come here often, and there is only one room with bedding.

"What about you?" He Qi also stood up.

"I'm sleeping on the sofa, hurry up, I have something to do tomorrow."

It's not easy for He Qi to ask Suhang what's the matter, after all, it's Suhang's private matter, he has no position.He glanced at Suhang again, then went upstairs silently.

After Suhang went to wash up, he turned off the lights on the first floor.He Qi just came out to brush his teeth, and the first floor was already dark. He Qi looked down from the position of the corridor, and saw that Su Hang had just put on a bed with an air-conditioning quilt and fell asleep. Hang's room.He knew the room that Su Hang slept in, but he had never been in it before. The interior decoration style was similar to the exterior room, minimalist in black, white and gray, and there was a large glass cabinet against the wall with books in it.He Qi glanced curiously. It was very complicated and had everything, but Suhang probably wouldn't look at it usually. After all, he didn't come here often, and it was mostly for decoration.

He Qi couldn't help but think of the past, when this man deliberately asked him to bring homework to show him in order to give him grapes, and even deliberately talked nonsense to fool him.Even so, Suhang is still good to himself.

How nice of him——He Qi touched the glass cabinet door and thought to himself.
