why don't you laugh

After singing at eight or nine o'clock in the evening, I have to go home in a hurry.

The waiter knocked on the door to remind the time, Wen Wei got up and said, "Then we're leaving. By the way——" He didn't think of a serious question until now, "Have you finished your winter homework yet?"

The audience was silent for two or three seconds.

Then, they shook their heads as if they didn't hear each other: "Let's go."

"Don't say bad things when you are happy."

"You should be very clear that we are not the kind of people who do homework."

"..."

Wen Wei directly gave a thumbs up: "Niubi or you Niubi, I'll go home these few days and try to catch up as much as possible, otherwise old man Lu won't collect all his homework and will make trouble again."

After making fun of them, they turned their attention to Xiao Zhi: "Brother Xiao, have you finished your homework?"

It's a joke, after all, Xiao Zhi has done things like throwing homework into the trash can, not to mention homework.But Xiao Zhi responded indifferently: "The third grader, how can you not do your homework?"

"Hahahaha, it's inflated!"

"..."

Xiao Zhi raised his hand and slapped Wen Wei on the back of the head: "Let's go."

"Wait, I'm going to the bathroom."

Wen Wei stumbled to the side.

Outside the KTV was a street with blue iron plates erected as barriers for the construction site. After waiting for a few minutes, before Wen Wei arrived, five or six spirited youths in small suits and leggings turned around at the end.

KTV belongs to the red-light district in this area, and it is often occupied by unemployed youths. There have been several cases of fighting and stabbing people to death.

Seeing such groups of people, everyone subconsciously moved aside.

A voice sounded from behind, and Zhang Ziming put his face against his face, with those pimples that seemed to never fade in the middle of his forehead, and shouted: "Ouch, I am Brother Xiao!"

Those leggings all turned their heads to look into the crowd.

His demeanor is full of cynical attitude, his hair is colorful, he is relatively thin, and some are stunted, but his eyebrows and eyes are particularly horizontal.

Xiao Zhi didn't get along with Zhang Ziming for a while, so he hummed.

The reason why Zhang Ziming was not liked in class was quite clear, he was violent, out of control, acted out of line, and a little crazy.Xiao Zhi ignored him since the incident of cheating in the exam.

Zhang Ziming's eyes were wide open, as if he didn't hold any grudges, he greeted him enthusiastically: "Going to play?"

"I'm leaving."

"Okay," Zhang Ziming smiled, "then let's play together."

Xiao Zhi turned his face to the other side.

He spoke sarcasticly, but Zhang Ziming didn't mind, he smiled and walked in with his brothers in his arms.Wen Wei just came out of the corridor, and the space was a bit narrow. Before he had time to step aside, Zhang Ziming raised his arm and threw him against the wall.

There was a "bang" when his back hit the wallpaper, and Wen Wei was stunned on the spot: "I'm fucking sick, are you sick?"

Zhang Ziming smiled hippie: "You are blocking my brother's way, I'm sorry."

"..." Wen Wei was puzzled.

Seeing that the opponent's posture is not easy to provoke, Wen Wei's personality has always been rather stubborn, maintaining the expression of an old man on the subway looking at his mobile phone, and turning around: "This person feels that his mind is not normal."

"Are you okay?" Guan Kun asked.

"It's all right."

Guan Kun shook his head and said, "Don't bother with him, the farther away from this kind of crazy criticism, the better. Those people—" He pursed his lips, "My cousin knows him, so it's not a good thing to say."

There is some embarrassment in the words.

Wen Wei turned his head while walking, scratching his hair: "I also think it's not good for a student to get too close to people in society. Those bad people in society fight and gamble all day long to cause trouble, they are very crazy!"

"You care about him?" Guan Kun didn't take it seriously, "Take care of yourself."

"I know, just chat a few words casually."

The two of them spoke to each other without thinking, Chen Bing's thoughts moved slightly, and he turned his head and looked inward.

There was a thin layer of snow on the ground in early winter, and it creaked when stepped on.

He was distracted, Xiao Zhi turned his head after two or three steps, reached out to hook his cuff: "Let's go."

Chen Bing quickened his pace.

He was still thinking that according to the life trajectory before rebirth, Xiao Zhi was almost the same as Zhang Ziming now, walking into the darkness step by step, until he was shunned by everyone like a snake and fell into hell.

However, now Xiao Zhi's trajectory has begun to diverge.

Chen Bing's chin was tucked into his collar, his fingertips were a little cold, but his heart was hot.

When I walked to the shop at the crossroads and stopped, the girls in the same class made a fuss to buy candies, long strips of fruit-flavored fudge, wrapped in snow-like white slag, opened and handed one to each of them.

The boys didn't eat it, and stood at the street corner waiting for someone. Chen Bing thought about it and went back to the store, where he also bought a fruit candy.

Busy chatting, Xiao Zhi put one hand on Wen Wei's shoulder: "Brother, I won't be able to help you if you get bullied again. You know, I've quit my job now and concentrated on my studies."

"I know, I know," Wen Wei said, "You can concentrate on style and style. This little injury is nothing to me."

"..."

With a strip of candy between his fingers, Chen Bing rubbed his hand into the pocket of his coat and slowly stuffed it.

Xiao Zhi tilted his head, took his hand out, and smiled: "What are you doing?"

"Your reward."

"Ok?"

Chen Bing: "You take it."

"Okay." Xiao Zhi took it and opened it, "Then thank you."

The two of them walked a little towards the shadow near the bottom of the building, Xiao Zhi took out a candy wrapper and pinched it between his fingers: "Come, feed you."

"?" Chen Bing said, "I won't eat."

"What are you doing, are you annoying? You must eat." Xiao Zhi started to move his hands and feet again as he spoke, Chen Bing was so entangled by him that he tentatively opened a slit for his lips.

He was waiting for Xiao Zhi to put it in his mouth, but he didn't expect that the next second, the idiot raised his head and threw it up.

"..."

Hold.

Typical dog feeding action.

Chen Bing grabbed his coat and pulled him in front of him: "Do you want to try this again?"

"Okay, okay," Xiao Zhi laughed, "Stop joking, open your mouth."

Chen Bing didn't open his eyes and stared at him for two seconds.

"I'm not kidding you, hurry up."

After repeated urging, Chen Bing reluctantly opened his mouth.

According to Xiao Zhi's coquettish operation, it is estimated that the action of feeding the dog will be repeated. Chen Bing grasped his wrist tightly, and waited for the next second to directly hit him.

But this time it worked unexpectedly.

The candy was put on the corner of his lips, pressed against his fingertips, and sent into the jaws.

After feeding Xiao Zhi let go, it was funny: "I said I won't lie to you."

"..."

The powdered sugar is melted on the tongue coating, which is cool.

Chen Bing's eyelids twitched, and when he turned around, the students next to him laughed inexplicably, and turned their eyes to this side, as if they were watching a play.

Chen Bing took a deep breath, and the heat came to his ears along with the breath, and he turned around and walked out of the crowd.

After a while, Xiao Zhi also blended into the crowd as if nothing had happened.

As a student, although people are wandering around the world outside the school, the sense of mission is already stirring in my heart as the school starts.Wen Wei continued the hurtful topic just now: "Brothers, do you want to do your homework or not?"

"I guess the teacher won't check it after writing it."

"Otherwise stop writing?"

Wen Wei was more conservative: "I think it's better to just write it down and copy the answer. Speaking of which—" He turned to Chen Bing, "Ice God, can you lend me a copy of your answer?"

If you can't finish writing, you can only start with a pen. The answers are all copied.Chen Bing used to be in No. [-] Middle School, and the students hardly worried about homework. This was the first time they encountered such a situation.

Neither is it borrowed, nor is it not borrowed.

He didn't say a whole sentence, Xiao Zhi walked to his side, and put his finger into the distance between Wen Wei and Chen Bing: "I'm sorry, but I can't borrow it."

"...Is it brother??"

"Write it yourself, or don't copy it. Don't waste everyone's time." Xiao Zhi looked down at him, speaking casually and directly, he didn't think there was anything wrong, after all, he used to dawdle like this.

"..."

Wen Wei was stunned for two seconds, feeling that Xiao Zhi was really calm, this kind of quality of not causing trouble to himself and the teacher was extremely rare, but he was more timid, not as tough as Xiao Zhi, so he could only give a thumbs up.

"Cow batch."

A few girls in the class drank and were worried about letting them go home alone. Xiao Zhi said to Yang Feihong twice, and he said: "Then we boys will drop by the way, so as not to be unsafe on the way home so late."

They were assigned to go along the same way, Fu Hang raised his hand: "Then I will send Xu Wei off."

"Forget it." Yang Feihong saw through his dirty thoughts at a glance: "You are the biggest hidden danger preventing people from getting home safely."

"..."

After a burst of laughter, Xu Wei was also very embarrassed, stepped forward and kicked Yang Feihong back two steps: "Is it annoying, you guys?"

"..." Yang Feihong belonged to the kind of tall and big, and couldn't help but praise after stepping back, "Sister Xu's supernatural power is well-deserved."

Fu Hang had a look of disbelief.

He has been with Xu Wei for half a year, and so far he only dares to punch hard on the Internet. The reality is submissive. After all, in three dimensions, his wife doesn't need to crawl through the Internet if she wants to beat him.

Walking with Xiao Zhi was a good-studied girl named Xu Lu in the class, she was very lively, and asked Chen Bing questions about her winter vacation homework while walking.

After sending it to the bottom of the complex, Xu Lu waved her hand; "Thank you two handsome guys, then I'll be leaving, see you at the beginning of school."

"Bye-Bye."

After Xiao Zhi finished speaking, he turned his head and walked home with Chen Bing.

It takes about four or five minutes to get to Xiao Zhi’s house on this road, and it’s bustling along the way, with many people setting up stalls selling barbecue.Xiao Zhi called Xiao Ruo while walking, stopped in front of the stall, and asked her what she wanted to eat.

Wenhao picked a lot of dishes, including some very greasy fish, Chen Bing raised his eyebrows: "Big night, buy her so much food?"

"Oh, she likes it."

"Buy it if you like it? I'm a bit used to it."

"No," Xiao Zhi turned to look at him, and laughed, "I saw her writing a Chinese composition before, the title was "My Brother", do you know how she wrote it? She said that she was looking forward to her brother coming home every night, because he always Bringing her food makes her feel that the home is lively and warm, and that she is loved so much, instead of being helpless and alone in the whole world."

Quiet for a moment.

Chen Bing almost understood it, and said after a while, "...that's it."

After buying, Xiao Zhi turned around with the box in his hand: "Let's go."

Along the street is a downhill road, the lights are relatively dim, and a few pedestrians occasionally pass by.Xiao Zhi turned to Chen Bing: "We haven't seen each other for a few days?"

"?"

Chen Bing thought for a while: "From the first day to the seventh day, there are only so many days."

Caught off guard, Xiao Zhi said the next sentence.

"Miss you."

"..."

Chen Bing didn't understand, so looking at him, he felt quite puzzled compared to this guy, "Don't you send messages and videos every day?"

"That doesn't count."

Chen Bing laughed: "But now we meet."

"Well," Xiao Zhi's voice was careless, "I'll just add a few days ago."

Every day before, I wanted to meet you.

Maybe that's how teenagers feel.

As for Xiao Zhi, his feelings were extraordinarily intense.

Night Breeze was a little cold, and he felt that if he didn't say anything, he would almost become a scumbag by his comparison. Chen Bing's voice stumbled, and he said softly, "Actually..."

"Huh?" Xiao Zhi looked at him sideways, against the light, his brows and eyes were not clear.

Chen Bing opened his mouth: "...I miss you too."

After speaking, Chen Bing clicked his tongue, feeling the shame in his blood.

Xiao Zhi covered half of his face in the shadow, turned his head to look at him, and the smile on his lips widened: "Thank you."

"..."

?

Thanks for what?

strangeness.

...But Chen Bing felt that he could understand what he said.

Since they fell in love, many unintentional small actions have touched each other tacitly.There is no need to speculate on the meaning, as long as you feel the same temperature in your heart.

After a while at the corner of the intersection, Xiao Zhi asked, "Are you going back tomorrow?"

"uncertain."

"Why not sure?"

"My mother takes care of my grandmother, and my father may leave in a few days." Chen Bing said, "then there is no need to go back."

"...Hmm." Xiao Zhi lowered his eyes and thought for a few seconds, half joking and half serious, "The misfortune of your family relationship happens to be my luck."

Chen Bing: "..."

Chen Bing slightly opened his eyelids, and asked him coolly: "Can you talk?"

"I'm sorry." Xiao Zhi really felt that what he said was inappropriate, so he patched up, "I'm just sighing."

"..." Chen Bing pursed his lips, and put his hand into the pocket of his coat.

Not angry that he said this.

On the contrary, Chen Bing also had a similar feeling.

Late at night, there were few people on the street, and occasionally young people and girls walked past in small groups.

The emotion in Chen Bing's heart was not self-pity, but something else.So many young boys and girls all over the world, how did they grow up?Some people may be more lucky, and some people may be more unlucky than Xiao Zhi.

They can't see anything on the surface, but there may be countless things hidden in their hearts.These people hide in the crowd and grow up quietly and stubbornly.

Every time Chen Bing thinks of this, he feels that what he has experienced is nothing.

It can be resolved, it can get better, and it can survive.

Both he and Xiao Zhi can grow up tenaciously and jump up tenaciously.

A car passes by in the driveway, headlights illuminate the side of the road.

Xiao Zhi reached out and grabbed him: "Come here."

Being pulled back, his footsteps retreated, and Chen Bing bumped into his arm lightly.

Holding each other, they held each other unscrupulously after reaching the stairs.

Xiao Zhi stood halfway and said, "Hold me a little longer?"

"Hold the barbecue to cool down again."

"That's right," Xiao Zhi let go, lowered his eyes, thought for a few seconds and said, "This little girl has spoiled my good deeds many times."

"..."

Chen Bing looked at him and licked his lower lip.

Xiao Zhi's voice was quite idle: "Look at her falling in love in the future, how can I deal with her?"

"..." Chen Bing sneered and laughed, "Fucking up some virtues for you."

Pushing the door open, I heard pattering footsteps before unlocking it, Xiao Zhi put his hand behind his back, Xiao Ruo immediately went around behind him and started to pull.

"Brother, brother—"

Xiao Zhi raised his hand to a position that Xiao Ruo couldn't reach: "Want to eat?"

"Hmm uh uh uh."

"then you--"

Xiao Ruo didn't have so much energy to be teased by him, she grabbed his clothes and climbed up, while making all kinds of coquettish and coquettish sounds.

"Tsk." Xiao Zhi paid more than the price, and put it in her hand, "Hurry up and go."

Xiao Ruo returned to the sofa to eat while concentrating on watching her cartoons.

Chen Bing remembered the unfinished business at noon.

But Xiao Zhi was still there, Chen Bing didn't rush to ask, and sat beside Xiao Ruo after he went to take a bath.

Xiao Ruo tilted her head: "Do you also like to watch this cartoon?"

"The Adventures of Pumbaa Timman" was playing on TV, Chen Bing stared at the screen and denied: "No."

He didn't know how to ask.

After all, this is Xiao Ruo's private matter. As a little girl, she will be questioned every time she meets her mother. Chen Bing feels that she is a little meddlesome.

However, she and Xiao Zhi had a conflict, and if they didn't resolve it, they might still quarrel.

A brief silence.

Xiao Ruo blinked and looked at Chen Bing several times, not quite understanding the reason why this cold-talking elder brother suddenly approached.

She handed over the barbecue: "Do you want to eat?"

"..." Chen Bing said, "I won't eat."

"Oh." Xiao Ruo put down the barbecue.She is quite obedient, with her hair hanging by her ears, wearing a very thick plush pajamas, eating barbecue with her jaw down, and pouring a glass of Coke to chat with her.

After a while, Chen Bing said: "On the first day of junior high school, I saw you meeting your mother."

"..."

Xiao Ruo paused and looked at him in astonishment.

In less than a second, her eyeballs turned to Xiao Zhi's bedroom, her eyes became moist instantly, and she pursed her mouth and wailed: "Brother, I didn't mean to—"

"..." Chen Bing had a headache and said, "I'm not blaming you, your brother doesn't know."

Xiao Ruo's tears stopped abruptly.

She put down the barbecue in her hand, she didn't seem to understand what Chen Bing meant, she sat at a loss.

Chen Bing lowered his gaze, not knowing how to continue to mention it.He usually talks less, and he is not good at solving such problems except studying. He pursed his lips and turned his gaze to Xiao Ruo: "Does she often come to see you?"

Xiao Ruo shook her head: "No."

"She..." Chen Bing thought for a while, not knowing what to ask.

Xiao Ruo stared at him helplessly, like a little criminal being interrogated.

Chen Bing thought for a while: "Say it yourself, I won't tell your brother."

"Oh." Xiao Ruo breathed a sigh of relief, patted her knees with her hands, and said to herself after she relaxed, "She just takes me out to play occasionally."

Chen Bing: "Huh?"

"Then..." Xiao Ruo didn't dare to speak, bowed his head, thought for a while before saying, "Mom wants to take me home."

Her voice was small, as if she had done something wrong.

Perhaps for her, accepting her mother means betraying her brother.

Hearing this answer, Chen Bing didn't know what to say for a moment.

It really is this kind of family conflict.Chen Bing's sensitivity to interpersonal relationships is inherently low, and he lacks the ability to deal with it. If it were someone else, Chen Bing wouldn't bother to care about it.But at this time, he had no choice but to pretend to be a close brother: "Then what do you think?"

"I won't go, I want to be with my brother."

Xiao Ruo answered very simply.

"……yes."

It was quiet for a while.

Chen Bing tapped the sofa with her knuckles, grasping another important point from the words: "She just wants to take you away?"

Xiao Ruo looked up again, the edges and corners of her eyes were very similar to Xiao Zhi's, and they were clear to the bottom.His fingers began to pick the sofa subconsciously nervously, as if confused: "Yes."

If you think about it carefully, it's not impossible.

Yang Wanzhou has not remarried so far, only Xiao Zhi and Xiao Ruo are a pair of children. Even if they were impulsive and hated at the beginning, their emotions faded after the passage of time. Yang Wanzhou, who pays attention to blood traditions, still has to take these two back.

but……

Chen Bing lowered his eyelids, wondering why she was so hostile towards Xiao Zhi.

Xiao Ruo shook her legs and scratched her hair: "Mom said, brother let him go back if he knows he made a mistake."

Chen Bing: "Huh?"

"But will my brother know his mistakes?" Xiao Ruo looked serious, "My brother won't. If he didn't do anything wrong, he will never admit it."

"..."

This sentence hits the point.

Chen Bing was in a complicated mood.

A young man like Xiao Zhi who is rebellious and pulls his sword when he encounters troubles will always be young and will never listen to anyone.

If it is too hot, it will burn others, and it will also burn yourself. If you can't guide him well, it is not impossible to walk on the road of self-destruction before rebirth.

With Xiao Ruo's promise, Chen Bing still had a question in his heart, but he felt it was not suitable to say it.

Xiao Ruo, do you feel that being with Xiao Zhi in this place is hard work?

Chen Bing still remembered that she was crying on Xiao Zhi's back, thinking about her mother.Before he could ask, Xiao Ruo next to him confirmed that Chen Bing was not a person who broke his promise, so he boldly continued to lie on the sofa, watch cartoons and eat barbecue and Coke.

After Xiao Zhi took a shower, he came out wearing a T-shirt.

Xiao Ruo turned around and shouted: "Brother!"

"?"

The black hair on Xiao Zhi's forehead was wet, and he half-closed his thin eyelids. He looked at Xiao Ruo without hesitation for half a second, and immediately knew that this was meaningless nonsense. He ignored her and went directly to the window to get a hair dryer. .

Sure enough, Xiao Ruo continued to watch cartoons after the temporary convulsions, and there was no follow-up, just like fucking amnesia.

"..."

——The tacit understanding between the two is really not a little bit.

As Chen Bing watched, the slender fingers that were unintentionally twisted together loosened again, and the temperature faded away.

Don't ask that question again.

The answer is obvious.

After washing, Chen Bing took the towel and pushed the door out of the bathroom. The lamp outside the window was on, casting an orange light.

Under Xiao Zhibai's T-shirt, his back was slightly bent, his long legs were bent, he stepped on the chair, and unintentionally stroked a few times with a pen between his fingers.

Xiao Zhi didn't make a sound, but he should be jotting down, and from time to time he would write something down on the draft paper.

When he scribbled, the characters were so ugly that the lines blended together, which can be called performance art.Chen Bing approached, picked up the draft paper, glanced at it, lowered his eyes to recognize it, and could only roughly distinguish whether he had written a mistake by dictation based on the length of the word.

Chen Bing couldn't hold back: "You write neatly."

"I think it's okay." Xiao Zhi was quite confident in the edges and corners of his pen, "Squishy English, just write like this."

"..."

This?

Still fancy?

Shaking the marking teacher's eyes?

Chen Bing didn't know where his self-confidence came from: "You don't want you to think." He pressed the edge of the draft paper with his fingertips and gently pulled it out, and then took a pen to "swipe" and draw a big cross of total negation: " He looks so handsome, but his handwriting is so ugly."

"..."

This said.

Xiao Zhi looked at him, his eyes were slightly restrained, and his brows and eyes were covered with a layer of cold air in the middle of the night.His expression was complicated, as if he couldn't tell whether Chen Bing's words were right or wrong for a while.

"You can start practicing Hengshui now."

Chen Bing pulled away the chair next to him.

Hengshui style, the standard calligraphy style of English composition, is very good-looking when written, and it is easy to win neat points.The English teacher at No. [-] Middle School would specifically ask the students to do relevant training, but Chen Bing stayed in No. [-] Middle School for a semester, and found that besides himself, many students seemed to have no idea what Hengshui body was.

Chen Bing pressed the nib of the pen with his finger bones, stroked the draft paper with the side of his hand, and wrote one letter at a time.

The light slightly covered the fingers, casting cold shadows between the joints.

Chen Bing half turned his face to the side, his facial features were thinner, his lips thinner, his eyebrows and eyes looked cold and handsome, because his irises were dark and grayish in color, and his hair was lighter, giving him a somewhat indifferent temperament.

He was writing while Xiao Zhi was watching, the light dazzled his eyes, and there was a slight sense of dazzle.

Xiao Zhi closed his eyes and opened them, pulled the chair close and kissed his earlobe unexpectedly.

Chen Bing turned around, his eyes were cold, as if he had been violated: "What are you doing?"

Before Xiao Zhi could speak, he continued to be irritable: "I haven't finished writing yet."

"..."

so fierce?

It was a bit inexplicable for Xiao Zhi to be stunned by him. Although I saw that he was cute and couldn't help but kissed him when he was serious about writing, it did destroy the study atmosphere, but it was not so...

Do you want to love learning so much?

...Is learning important?I'm important?

Xiao Zhi really felt, damn it, a little sour.
