why don't you laugh

Xiao Zhi didn't listen to the jokes that Wen Wei told to make him happy, he just felt bored in the middle, and his ears were buzzing.

"Brother Xiao, I have a surprise for you later."

"What surprise?"

Being woken up again, Xiao Zhi picked up the cigarettes on the coffee table, picked out one to his lips, lowered his eyes, bit it and lit it.

There was a knock on the door, and Wen Wei was full of excitement: "Here we come, we come, we come."

Xiao Zhi rubbed his forehead hair wearily, looking over, Zhu Xiao hurried in from the door, holding a swaddling baby in his hand, and protecting the child's head with his palm: "It's not too late, is it?"

"No, you came just in time." Wen Wei put on a smile of trying his best to be praised, "We asked around, and only Zhu Xiao has a 1-year-old sister, and now I will lend you a hug for a while. Comfort Comfort your mood."

"..."

Xiao Zhi didn't have much energy at first, but now he stared at the babbling baby in front of him, who was buried in his elder brother's neck, a little bit at a loss for this new environment, he was snoring and spitting bubbles.

Xiao Zhi's mind buzzed for a moment, and he felt a sudden burst of anger in his bone marrow.He stubbed out the cigarette in his hand, breathing slowly and long, turned his head, his dark eyes were oppressive and irritable.

He ground his teeth and glanced at Wen Wei: "Are you seriously ill?"

"Uh," Wen Wei quickly explained, "Really, just... Anyway, if you can't stop thinking about Xiao Ruo, treat her as your younger sister and hug her for a while."

Xiao Zhi: "..."

Zhu Xiao intertwined the younger sister's armpits with both hands, kicked her little feet while supporting her in the air, and handed it to Xiao Zhi: "Brother Xiao, let me give you a hug for my younger sister."

"..."

Xiao Zhi lowered his eyes, silently looking at the child in front of him.

The child was quite obedient, with short hair, and she could only be identified as a little girl from the pink skirt she was wearing, with two fleshy legs exposed, and when she was held in the air, she stared straight at the boy in front of her with wide eyes.

Xiao Zhi didn't move.

Zhu Xiao raised his arm sorely: "Brother Xiao, hurry up and hug me, I finally took it out while my mother was playing mahjong, and I will take it back immediately after hugging."

"..."

Being so urged, Xiao Zhi unconsciously clenched his knuckles, then nodded, and just reached out to hug him.

However, he stretched out his hands and the little girl who had been showing curiosity towards Xiao Zhi began to struggle, and then turned around and threw herself into Zhu Xiao's arms desperately.

Zhu Xiao sighed, and said, "Don't, don't, Xixi, can you just let him hug you for a while?"

Xixi shook her head, kicked her legs, and threw her hands and feet with the energy of breastfeeding.

Zhu Xiao had no choice but to hug her back and said, "It's probably because she is afraid of strangers."

Waiting for Xixi to return to Zhu Xiao's arms, she stopped, her fingers gently grabbed Zhu Xiao's neck, and shouted in fear: "Brother..."

There was a brief silence in the air.

Zhu Xiao hugged Xixi and said a few words, patted her on the back, helped her straighten her wrinkled skirt, and pulled it below her knees.

"..."

Xiao Zhi retracted his hand and hung it by his side.

Next to him, Wen Wei took out a plate of toffee and stuffed it into Xixi's palm, patted her head and lied: "Just let him hug you, and I'll give you some more candy, okay?"

Xixi hid in his brother's arms.

"Really, sister, cherish the opportunity, this may be one of the few times when you meet handsome guys of this level."

Xixi looked at him and giggled when she didn't understand.

After persuading her for a long time, Wen Wei made her really happy, and then turned to Xiao Zhi: "—Brother Xiao, try again? I think it will work now."

Only the back of Xiao Zhi turned back to the room.

He is tall and straight, and he moves quickly.

"Don't try."

The door is closed.

Xiao Zhi sat down and propped his forehead, feeling dizzy.

When he was in mourning, he knew that he was mourning, but he just thought about not thinking about anything, not doing anything at this time, and letting his emotions sink so low.

The thoughts in his mind ran headlessly like a runaway wild horse, thinking of where and where, vaguely, Xiao Zhi remembered some scattered fragments.

I remembered that Xiao Ruo felt sorry for him, secretly hid at the door to watch Yang Wanzhou, turned around and pulled his sleeve with a smile, shook her head and said nothing.Every night when he came home, he had to get up from the bed and go back to sleep after talking about what happened at school today.I just like to follow behind him, I have to sit next to him when I go to an Internet cafe, buy snacks and put them in his hands...

In fact, there is nothing to think about.

It was Xiao Zhi who felt that it was a bit difficult for her to follow him.

What's more, she knew it in her heart, hadn't had much quarrel, and lived happily like a fool.

Xiao Zhi actually didn't understand why his mood changed from being reluctant at the beginning to feeling sorry for her now.

He felt that his strength was too weak to break free from this kind of life, so he had no choice but to bring her to suffer with him.

……

Xiao Zhi's slender fingers grabbed into the strands of hair, and he didn't know how long it took before he heard the phone vibrate gradually and clearly by his ear.

Humming, buzzing, especially violent.

He picked up his phone and glanced at it, Chen Bing's video call.

I don't know if I don't read it, I didn't reply to the dozen messages I sent this morning.

Xiao Zhi took the phone and clicked on it.

Chen Bing arrived at the hotel, with warm wallpaper behind him, he looked at the phone: "What are you doing?"

Xiao Zhi cheered up, feeling that his eyelids could hardly be opened, and tried his best to watch the video seriously: "Huh? Gang Wenwei and the others are here."

"I said morning."

Chen Bing finally put away his things, sat back on the side of the bed, and turned his gaze to the video on his mobile phone.

"Morning," Xiao Zhi thought for a while, "I'm going to sleep in the morning."

"Sleep in the morning, what about last night?"

Drinks last night, but that can't be said.Xiao Zhi seemed to be thinking, with a smile on his lips and a low voice.

"I missed you last night and couldn't sleep."

Hearing this, the scene suddenly became ambiguous.

Chen Bing looked down at him for a while, annoyed, and said this sentence too easily: "You are lying to ghosts."

Xiao Zhi stuck the phone to his ear, and his voice came through the screen, as if reaching Chen Bing's ear, low and indistinct.

"I didn't lie. I really miss you."

His voice was a little hoarse, with a breathy voice, sounding weak, but as if he had just woken up, very provocative.

Chen Bing didn't hear clearly: "Didn't you eat at noon?"

Xiao Zhi thought for a few seconds: "Eat."

"Then don't you know how to speak louder?"

"..."

Xiao Zhi licked his lips, straightened his waist with his knees propped up, and amplified his strength a little: "I miss you so much."

He was very serious, and Chen Bing was silent for a while: "I don't want to hear this sentence."

"Has the wife eaten?"

There was silence for a while.

Chen Bing said, "Eat."

"Seafood?"

"Well, there are a lot of seafood here."

"very nice."

Xiao Zhi fell back on the bed, and the bed made a slight creak. He sank into the quilt, as if his bones had been pulled, and his voice became extremely low again.

"Does my wife miss me?"

Chen Bing: "..."

Intermittently, he seemed to be burning his life with his words, and urged: "I ask you, do you miss me?"

Chen Bing said with restraint: "It's only been two days apart, so I don't really think about it."

Xiao Zhi's breath came out from the speaker, and he hummed.

Well, a brief silence.

I thought I would not speak again for the time being, but Xiao Zhi unconsciously said after a while, "I miss you."

He stubbornly said it over and over again.

Chen Bing lowered his eyelids, held his mobile phone in front of his eyes, and asked after sensing his emotions, "What's wrong?"

Xiao Zhi didn't answer, and after a while, he couldn't tell whether it was whispering or talking in sleep: "Baby."

Chen Bing felt helpless: "Here."

"I'll give you another chance to say if you miss me."

——His voice is quite natural, and a little tough, he must hear that answer.

At first I thought it was hypocritical and had no feelings for such love words, but Chen Bing gradually softened his heart and said, "I think so."

Xiao Zhi should have gotten his wish, there was no movement, only a heavy breath that seemed to be sleeping.

Chen Bing asked him, "Have you had dinner?"

no respond.

"Xiao Zhi?"

"Ah."

He responded in a low voice, weakly.

The normally energetic person suddenly became like this, and Chen Bing felt restless in his heart, looking down at the phone: "What's the matter?"

From such a distance, only the mobile phones can be seen scattered around, Xiao Zhi is lying on the pillow with his eyelids closed, his hair is messy, and only the sound of soft sleeping breathing can be heard.

Chen Bing didn't know what to say.

He waited for half a minute, thinking that Xiao Zhi was asleep, and said, "Then I hung up the video?"

Xiao Zhi's voice sounded: "Don't."

Chen Bing stopped what he was doing.

There is a sea outside the hotel. The price of the nearest sea view room can be very high in peak season, but you can also see the beautiful sea view.

The next day, Chen Bing and Xu Rong went to the beach on the coast. The weather was fine, and the sun hurt her skin. Xu Rong rented a sunshade and lay down on a chair to apply sunscreen. She dressed conservatively, but she was wearing sunglasses. Well done.

Chen Bing looked at the other beauties on the beach: "Mom, you can dress more beautifully."

"No, no, no," Xu Rong sighed, "I'm old, I can't compete with these young girls."

Chen Bing was silent for a while: "Not old."

The sun hits the skin, and the temperature is scorching.Chen Bing wore a light blue shirt, stood on the beach and walked back and forth.The hem of the clothes was blown up slightly by the wind, and the hair was a little messy.

He turned his head and wanted to go to the sea with his mother, but he saw Xu Rong holding a camera, fiddling with him and taking pictures of him.

Chen Bing blocked his face: "...What are you filming?"

"You go and play by yourself, mom can't move, just watch you play."

Chen Bing was speechless for a while: "Mom."

"Go, go! Go!" Xu Rong urged, pointing the camera at him.

It's been like this since she was a child, she always stood by the side smiling and watching Chen Bing play, or took a camera and silently recorded every moment of his growing up.Xu Rong was not very good at photography, but because she took pictures of Chen Bing all the time, she was familiar with a lot of knowledge.

Chen Bing was too lazy to move at first, but seeing that she was always envious of other people's children who were lively and active, he could only squat down and shovel the sand for a while, running back and forth until he returned to her side sweating profusely and asked for a drink.

It's really tiring after a day of playing.

Back at the hotel at night, Chen Bing didn't want to move his fingers when he fell on the bed.After thinking about it, he stood up and called Xiao Zhi, but he waited until the audio automatically hung up, but no one answered.

Chen Bing didn't know what Xiao Zhi was doing.

I had to send a message to Wen Wei.

A video was sent from the opposite side, followed by a noisy voice: "We are in KTV now, can you hear me? Can you?!"

Chen Bing pushed the phone forward, and simply typed a word: "Yes."

"Brother Xiao, Brother Xiao should be at home, right? Tell him to go out and stay out, and bring him a few packs of cigarettes and wine—cough, tui! No, it's nothing, he just doesn't want to go out. I made a mistake just now, really, he is I'm too lazy to go out ahhhhhhhhhhh—"

"..."

Too noisy.

Chen Bing cut off the voice.

What Wen Wei said kept ringing in his mind.

I still can't get through to Xiao Zhi.

Chen Bing stared at the phone and licked his lips, feeling extremely irritable, but he was helpless for the time being.

Xiao Zhi didn't call back until the next day when he and Xu Rong were eating seafood at a famous local restaurant.

Chen Bing didn't want to pick it up at first, but after thinking about it, he got through anyway.

There was still a hoarse voice, as if the person hadn't woken up: "Are you eating?"

Chen Bing hummed: "What about you?"

"I just finished eating." Xiao Zhi's voice was muffled.

"What to eat?"

"Aunt Wang's food."

"I asked you what you ate." Chen Bing's voice became more serious.

The other side was quiet for a few seconds, and said: "Boiled fish, fried vegetables, sweet and sour pork ribs, pork trotters and lotus root soup, and an eggplant with minced meat."

Chen Bing hummed.

After a pause, he continued, "Say it again."

Xiao Zhi drawled "Ah", and then said vaguely: "Boiled fish, stir-fried vegetables, shredded pork with green pepper—"

Xu Rong in the front was cutting the crab claws with scissors, and just picked out the meat and put it on the Chen Bing plate. Seeing the coldness in his eyes, he frowned and said in a low voice: "Xiao Zhi, you have the guts to wait for me to come back."

hang up the phone.

Xu Rong asked worriedly, "What's wrong?"

Chen Bing said it was all right, put the phone on the edge of the table, lowered his head and ate something bitterly.

Xu Rong was still full of worry, after all, it was rare to see Chen Bing's angry expression like this.

But half a minute.

Chen Bing picked up the phone again.

Xu Rong: "What's wrong?"

Chen Bing didn't seem to want to say it, and after a while, he simply said: "Give him some takeaway."

After finishing speaking, he added, "He doesn't eat well."

"..."

Xu Rong nodded: "Young people nowadays - but you said that if Ruoruo just left with mother, it might not be a good mood to leave him alone. You see when you are at home, mother is doing a lot of fish and meat, but If you're not at home, mom will eat whatever you want."

Chen Bing lowered his head, feeling an inexplicable emotion welling up in his heart.

"Xiaozhi is probably the same. The house is empty, and I can't do anything. People are incomplete and need company."

Chen Bing didn't know what to say: "Mom."

"You go back early, spend more time with him and talk to him."

Chen Bing nodded: "Thank you, Mom."

Xu Rong's face was full of joy: "I'll tell you more, you will understand."

The plane landed in the afternoon of the second day, and the earliest ticket was changed, two days earlier than before.

Chen Bing didn't have time to go home, so he took a taxi and went directly to Xiao Zhi's house on the street. He still carried a gift from the seaside, a deep red coral stone, which looked good, and Chen Bing bought it without any hassle.

Going upstairs, Chen Bing knocked on the door, but heard nothing.

Knock again, and a violent "Get out!" came through the door.

"..."

Chen Bing took out the key from his pocket, inserted it into the lock, and turned it.

The door opened, and the living room was filled with the dry and hot atmosphere of midsummer, and the atmosphere was a bit stuffy.

Chen Bing walked to the tea table.

"My mother..." The figure lying on the sofa slowly propped up, his slender fingers showed veins, inserted them into the hair for a while, and then turned to look at the source of the voice.

Xiao Zhi gave Wen Wei the key these few days, and he thought it was him who came over again, and was so irritable that he wanted to curse, until he met Chen Bing's eyes.

There was no emotion on Chen Bing's face, he just glanced at the cigarettes on the coffee table, drank the empty and tilted wine bottles, even a few white bottles.

Chen Bing glanced over, raised his hand to throw the gift box he was carrying on the sofa, and then his eyes fell on Xiao Zhi again.

Looking at each other, there was a brief silence.

Xiao Zhi's eyelids were drooping, and he didn't feel very energetic, his lips were pale in color, his eyes had heavy shadows and red bloodshot eyes, and his complexion was relatively poor because of the upside-down schedule.

He was wearing a black T-shirt, slightly revealing the shape of his collarbone, and his legs were widely spread apart. He was originally sleeping on his back, but now he was slightly adjusted to face Chen Bing.

Chen Bing: "You continue to sleep."

Xiao Zhi shook when he stood up, and then grabbed Chen Bing's wrist.

Chen Bing pointed to the things on the sofa: "I brought you a gift, I'm leaving."

"Don't..." When Xiao Zhi approached, there was a strong smell of tobacco on his body, mixed with the smell of alcohol, which was quite unpleasant. He hugged Chen Bing in his arms, "Don't go."

Chen Bing pressed the fire, pointed at his chest with his fingertips, and pushed him directly back into the sofa: "Go ahead, I have to come back in two days according to the original plan. I will give you time to tidy up, just to lie to me."

After Chen Bing walked two steps, his wrist was wrapped again by the warm palm.

Xiao Zhi's voice was hoarse: "Chen Bing..."

It may be that he drank too much, his voice was bad, and he couldn't hear clearly.

Chen Bing didn't want to talk to him at first, but couldn't help being shaken in his heart, turned his head and squatted down in front of Xiao Zhi, and touched his face vigorously.

Chen Bing's brows were tightly frowned, and his emotionless eyes were full of confusion and irritability: "What are you doing, you? What are you doing? I want to burn incense for you."

Xiao Zhi covered his lips and coughed.

"If you keep doing this, really," Chen Bing kissed the tip of his lips forcefully, "Go to the garbage dump and lie down, put a number plate saying 'Trash, don't let anyone pick it up', and I won't care about you anymore."

Xiao Zhi lowered his eyes, brushed down a few strands of hair on his forehead, and said softly: "En."

"Hmm what? Admitting that you are a waste?"

"..." Xiao Zhi shook his head.

"I didn't listen carefully to what I said, how did I remember it in my heart?" Chen Bing looked at him with cold eyes, and then clasped his hands and nodded his chest.

"—keep it in your heart."

The corners of Xiao Zhi's lips moved slightly, and after a long silence, he replied again: "En."

Afterwards, he changed his posture, stretched out his arms and pulled Chen Bing, wanting to hug him into his arms.

Chen Bing was not in the mood to hug him.

"You reflect on it first."

This time, Xiao Zhi was quick: "I will reflect."

"..."

Distressed and funny, Chen Bing brushed his messy hair: "It doesn't smell good, you go take a shower first."

Xiao Zhi was not very happy.

During the short confrontation, he saw that Chen Bing had no room for wavering, so he got up and went to the bathroom.There was the sound of water being flushed, and when Xiao Zhi came out again, he was only wearing a pair of jeans, and the shirt on his upper body was unbuttoned, and he came out with the shirt open.His legs are long, his shoulders are strong and strong, and he feels like a male star in that kind of movie.

"Aren't you going to sleep?" Chen Bing asked.

Xiao Zhi smiled, feeling better: "Sleep is not as important as sleep?"

"..."

While Chen Bing was distracted, he had already sat on the sofa.

The tip of the wet tongue was stuck in the mouth several times, Chen Bing lowered his eyes halfway, and in his sight was Xiao Zhi's straight nose, slightly drooping black eyelashes, and the line of his jaw that was gently biting as his lips and teeth entangled.

Born skinny, sharp and neat.

Chen Bing originally thought of just kissing him for a while, but Xiao Zhi's reaction now is particularly abnormal.He seemed to be tasting some kind of delicacy, his fingers clasped the back of Chen Bing's head, penetrated into the hair and stroked, inch by inch, the kiss was not lukewarm, but the kiss was extremely sensational.

Xiao Zhi panted lightly, the voice that could only be heard in the audio these days was close at hand.

I don't know when it started, his voice is full of provocation.

When Chen Bing turned his head to hide, his chin was pinched by his slender fingers, and he sent it back, and his lips were covered and licked gently.

It's cool, moist, and seems to have a strange sweet smell.

Chen Bing lowered his eyes halfway, his eyes were still calm and rational, until Xiao Zhi's hand touched dishonestly, he laughed: "I thought it was really so resistant."

A touch of sarcasm.

Not bad.

This idiot is back again.

After a while of busy work, it was almost six o'clock.

After the sweat on his back evaporated, Chen Bing sat up straight and stepped on the ground with his legs on the sofa.He was about to stand up when Xiao Zhi pulled his wrist back.

"What?"

Chen Bing: "It's time to eat."

Xiao Zhi was quiet for a while, straightened up, took off his crumpled shirt, and changed into a T-shirt.

When staying with Xiao Zhi during the previous winter vacation, Chen Bing got used to cooking at his house, and opened the refrigerator to look for things: "I thought there was nothing, but there were quite a few things."

Xiao Zhi came over and supported the refrigerator door: "I didn't move what they brought."

"The vegetables are wilting."

"Just a few of them."

Chen Bing turned his head to look at him: "What do you want to eat?"

"casual."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Zhi guessed that Chen Bing wanted to hear his serious answer, and said again, "Braised pork."

Chen Bing thought for a second: "No. Change one."

"..."

Unreasonable and strong.

Xiao Zhi: "Then you stir-fry vegetables for me."

Chen Bing took out the things in the refrigerator and went to the kitchen.

Xiao Zhi looked at him for a while, and said: "Can I not help you, and go to recite the vocabulary that I owe these days?"

"..." Chen Bing pressed his white fingertips against the back of the kitchen knife, and smiled, "You haven't memorized the vocabulary these days?"

There was obvious displeasure in the words.

Xiao Zhi took two steps back, returned to the sofa and took out a vocabulary book and a pen, bowed his head and began to recognize memories.

On the way, Xiao Zhi raised his head several times to look in Chen Bing's direction.

The fairy man who doesn't eat fireworks is not enthusiastic about cooking. He held the spatula reservedly, looked down and looked at the movements in the pot indifferently, thinking that he was manipulating the highly precise instruments in the laboratory.

However, somehow the family came alive.

Hot and delicious.

Xiao Zhi twirled his pen loosely between his finger bones, saw a pile of wine bottles in front of him, and felt that all his madness had been swayed in the past few days.But inexplicably, I don't know why I was so frustrated.

I also feel that it is not right to lose like this, but I have no strength to earn it.

Only Chen Bing, who is obviously cold and doesn't like to smile very much, but when he sees him, his eyes seem to be clear again.

His tenderness is only known to him.

When Xiao Zhimo wrote words, his mind was full of these messy things.

There was the sound of switching on and off the fire in the kitchen.

Chen Bing came over one after another with several dishes, and put them on the table, shredded pork with green peppers, vinegared cabbage, steamed fish, and a bowl of seaweed egg drop soup.

Xiao Zhi opened the chair and sat down, just picked up the chopsticks in his hand and pestered them boredly, Chen Bing covered the dishes in front of his eyes.

Just now Xiao Zhi said that he didn't memorize the vocabulary, and when Chen Bing was cooking, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he felt that this meal was cooked for him out of good intentions.Here, there is only one simple sentence: "Call me Dad."

"?"

"Is it called? No, there is no food."

Xiao Zhi: "What kind of father is that called? Can I call you ancestor?"

"..."
