brave and coward

Jan came out of the shower and saw Wendong leaning against the door of the children's room playing with his mobile phone.

Wendong looked up at Jan when he heard the voice, and asked, "Do you want to drink hot milk before going to bed? Read a storybook? I can also sing nursery rhymes. Just say so, you're welcome."

Jan shook his head, silently looking behind Wendong.

Wen Dong said: "He has to go to work tomorrow and go to bed. As a doctor, he has to concentrate on treating patients, so pay special attention to rest."

Jan heard that he was comforting herself, and smiled gratefully at him, but the smile disappeared quickly, and asked Wendong sadly and seriously: "You are a good person, can you please return my father to us? I beg you."

Wen Dong scratched his cheek, walked up to Jan and knelt down, looked at him at the same level, and said, "I won't rob you of your father, and I can't rob you of your father."

"but--"

"But," Wen Dong interrupted him, "your dad is an adult, and what he wants to do is his own choice and his right. He is not an object, and no one can return him to anyone."

Jan clenched his small fist, and said aggrievedly and stubbornly, "He is my father, and he is responsible to me."

"If he really is, you are right." Wen Dong said.

Jan glared at him angrily, holding back tears and said, "He is!"

"I didn't deny it." Wen Dong said, "I just want to tell you that if he is your father, he is indeed responsible for you, and based on what I know about him, he will definitely support you, and he will definitely not want you. You, so you don't need to worry about this at all. But I don't think that's what you're worried about. You just hope that he can ask you Uncle Xue together. Then it's unreasonable, and Uncle Xue is not his own son. dont you agree?"

Jan lowered his head and was silent for a long time, then asked in a low voice, "Are you in a relationship with him?"

Wen Dong smiled: "I hope so, but for now I'm just chasing him."

Jan said in a low voice: "But Uncle Xue is really important to me, Uncle Xue really loves my father, he is so pitiful, can you—"

"No." Wen Dong interrupted him.

"……Why?"

Wen Dong spread his hands and said, "Because you are not my son, why should I listen to you or not?"

"...But, you are a good person..."

"I didn't admit that I am a good person. I have done many bad things in the past." Wen Dong said confidently, "I won't lie to you, I am immoral, and I can't be kidnapped by morality. I even think that I’m so pitiful, I’m so poor, I’m so poor and I’m not allowed to win a lottery ticket, it’s so unfair! I’m so old, why doesn’t my dad come to me with ten houses and one hundred million yuan?”

"..."

Jan opened his mouth and wanted to say, "Then you are not a good person, you have done a lot of bad things, and you are poor, so you shouldn't be chasing my dad." Comfort him with a few sentences: "But I think you are a good person. You are so kind to me today, and your colleagues have a very good relationship with you."

Wendong waved his hand, with the word "sincerity" written all over his face: "So you say how pitiful I am, I am so good, but I don't have any money, so I'm no more pitiful than your Uncle Xue? You and your father should consider me first to help the poor. Well, Uncle Xue is so rich and has a social status, he will be very happy alone, really."

Jan: "..."

He didn't want to talk to this person anymore. He was young, and in the past with Xue Younian, he was always "talking and laughing with great scholars, and communicating with each other without white men".

Wendong held back a smile to see Jan's deflated appearance, and asked again: "Aren't you sleepy when you're having dinner? Take a shower and wake up?"

Jan hurried down the slope and said, "I'm sleepy!"

But Wendong started nagging again: "Are you hungry? You didn't eat much for dinner. Let me tell you, when you grow taller at your age, eat more and grow taller. Don't be hungry. When I was in elementary school, I had a classmate Said to lose weight, hungry like a monkey, thin is thin, last year I met this person was very short. Also, my mother is not tall, she said my father is not tall, but I am tall, why, because When I was young, I ate so much that I couldn’t hold back... Alas, it’s quite pitiful to say it. When I was young, my family was so poor that I couldn’t even eat enough. My mother told me to eat less. Eat more, alas, I am so poor."

"..."

Jan was super speechless.

He couldn't understand why his Uncle Xue's love rival was such a person!

Wen Dong asked again: "Hey, have you ever eaten barbecue? Why do I think you have never eaten barbecue? Just the kind at the supper stall, lamb skewers, spicy soup, butter and so on."

Jan exhausted all his politeness and patience, shaking his head and saying, "Those things are not healthy."

"I won't let you eat it." Wendong showed a wicked smile that didn't look like a good person at first glance, looked at the door, and lowered his voice seductively, "I'll take you to eat supper. There is a night market nearby. At this time It's the most lively place. Not only is there food, but also fun, which is more enjoyable than the ones you played this afternoon, and many children are going there. Shall we go?"

Jan: "..."

He is not interested in eating, but he is very interested in playing.

It's more fun than in the afternoon, how much fun is it...

Wen Dong pulled him: "Go, go."

Jan was pulled up and took two steps, and shook his head with difficulty: "...I won't go."

Wen Dong persuaded him for a while, and seeing that he persisted, he had to say, "That's fine. Then are you sleeping now?"

Afraid that he would drag him out, Jan nodded quickly: "I'm sleepy."

"Okay, go to sleep." Wen Dong asked, "Do you want to read you a story?"

Jan was a little afraid of his over-the-top hospitality, as if he wanted to be his stepmother...ah no, stepdad. Jan was alert, and said cautiously: "No, thank you, you can go to rest too."

After Wendong left, Jan lay under the quilt, closed his eyes, thinking about the little penguins during the day, and soon fell asleep. In his dream, he returned to the aquarium, holding hands with the little animals and going around in circles...

Suddenly, Jan smelled a particularly fragrant smell, which made his stomach ache from hunger...

Jan sat up, rubbed his eyes in a daze, turned his head to look at Wendong who was sitting cross-legged on the floor next to his bed and was eating, and almost cried: "...what are you doing..."

Wendong handed him a skewer in a friendly manner: "Mutton skewers, do you want to eat?"

"...don't eat!"

"Really don't want to eat?" Wen Dong said, taking another bite.

"...don't eat."

"But you are drooling." Wen Dong said.

"Don't eat!!!"

"If you don't eat, don't eat, why lose your temper." Wen Dong said, "Then I'll go out to eat."

Jan watched angrily as the big villain walked to the door and came back: "Hey, I forgot to give you something."

The big villain put a string of dolls tied together on the quilt: "For you."

Jan frowned, looked down, and saw a bunch of naive Q-version sea animal dolls.

The big villain... No, it's Wendong, he said: "I played the game and won by shooting a gun. Let you go with me. If you don't go, you will lose a lot, right? A lot of children are playing there... ...Go away! Good night."

After finishing speaking, Wendong walked towards the door with the barbecue, stopped there, and looked back at Jan: "I really don't want to eat it? Just take a bite, and I'm sure it won't kill you. My friend's stall must be clean. you promise."

Jan: "..."

Hua Lin slept very restlessly, woke up in the middle of the night, looked at the ceiling for a while, suddenly regained his energy, got out of bed, stepped on his slippers, and tiptoed out of the bedroom to the children's room.

——Isn't this the best time to test samples!

Take the toothbrush first.

The child should be sleeping soundly, maybe drooling, or getting some...

Hey, did you forget to turn off the light in the living room?Forget it, it doesn't matter.

Hua Lin stood at the door of the children's room, took two deep breaths, stretched out his hand and gently opened the door——

He met Jan's eyes, who was eating skewers with an inexplicable grievance on his face.

The heavy seasoning smell in the room hit Hualin's olfactory system.

Wendong saw Jan petrified in an instant, turned his head and looked over, and greeted with a smile: "Brother Lin, you eat—"

Hua Lin interrupted Wendong: "What did you feed him? Where did you get it?"

Wen Dong said: "It's the night market nearby. Let's grill skewers."

Hua Lin was convinced by this guy, and turned to Jan holding back his temper: "It's too late, don't eat, go brush your teeth, and go to bed."

Jan hurriedly put the half-eaten skewers back into the lunch box, got up and went to the bathroom to brush his teeth and wash his face, then climbed back to bed, covered the quilt by himself, closed his eyes and hypnotized himself to fall asleep!Although it's not very good to think so, it's hard for him not to suspect that the big villain deliberately framed him!

Hualin opened the window to disperse the smell of the room. Seeing that Jan was asleep, he frowned and signaled Wendong to follow him to the master bedroom. After closing the door, he asked, "What are you doing? If you eat something wrong, you will be blamed for it?"

Wen Dong explained: "I asked him, he has no allergies, and it is my friend's stall, all clean and regular, not gutter oil and rat meat..."

Hua Lin interrupted him and said angrily, "Do you know what's going on with him? If something happens, I won't blackmail you to death!"

Wendong really didn't take it seriously to invite the child to eat skewers. It can be seen that Hualin was so angry, he quickly changed his tone, and raised his hand to swear: "I was wrong, I will never give him food again, otherwise I will be dog."

Hua Lin still stared at him.

Wendong continued to reflect: "I was wrong, I shouldn't talk back to you."

Hua Lin said with a sullen face, "Go to sleep."

Wen Dong responded, and took two steps towards the door, looked back at Hua Lin spreading the quilt, walked over to hug him from behind, and acted coquettishly before he scolded: "Brother Lin, I'm afraid~"

"Are you sick!" Hua Lin had goosebumps on his arms, trying to get rid of this guy, but failed, "Get out! Don't take advantage of me!"

"I'm really afraid." Wen Dong didn't let go.

Hua Lin thought that Wen Dong was talking about Xue Younian's retaliation against him, so he said angrily: "Now that I know I'm afraid, what did you do earlier? I told you to ignore them, now there's no use in being afraid. Forget it, don't I'm afraid, I'll find a way, it's none of your business..."

"Ah? What did you say?" Wen Dong said innocently, "I'm afraid you will still be angry with me."

"..."

Hua Lin turned his head and looked at the pretentious Wen Dong for two seconds, then said indifferently, "Get lost."

Wen Dong couldn't hold back any longer, he threw himself forward and backward with laughter while hugging Hua Lin, and was kicked and kicked out of the master bedroom by Hua Lin.

Hua Lin had to go to work the next day, and Wen Dong meant that he could help take care of Jan for another day, but Hua Lin was afraid that this idea would be the result of a foolish uncle, so he disagreed desperately, so Wen Dong had no choice but to let it go.

Fortunately, Jan is really well-behaved. He found a corner in Hualin's office and sat quietly, reading a book and taking notes, sometimes looking up at Hualin for diagnosis.

It was almost twelve o'clock, Hua Lin saw off the last patient, and was about to call Shang Jan to the cafeteria for dinner, when someone knocked on the office door: "Director Hua, are you free?"

Director Hua said coldly, "No time."

"If you don't have time, you have to eat." Wen Dong came in with a smile, and lit up the bag in his hand, "Love lunch, it's all your favorite dishes." He turned his head and asked Jan, "Are you good in the morning?" good?"

He's sick, this guy is addicted to pretending to be a stepfather.Hua Lin was very speechless.

Wendong left after lunch. In the evening, Xue You came and said to meet Jan.

Hua Lin had nothing to say to him, so he nodded and let him pick him up.

Xue Younian looked at Hua Lin and said gently, "I think you'll be busy today and tomorrow, so I won't invite you to dinner this time."

Hua Lin said lightly, "I won't need it in the future."

Xue Younian smiled, and led Jan away.

……

The next day, Hua Lin, who voluntarily worked overtime, received his overtime results at midnight.

The file bag was on his desk, and he turned on the desk lamp and stared at it for a long, long time.

I don't want to tear it down.

But it must be dismantled.

In fact, putting that piece of paper into the file bag with your own hands and then unpacking it is a pointless thing in itself.

But Hua Lin didn't want to look at that piece of paper, he even complained that the file bag couldn't spontaneously ignite.

……

ding dong -- ding dong --

Bang bang bang.

"Wentong! Wendong!"

Hualin also rang the doorbell, knocked on the door, and called, but no one came to open the door for a long time.He raised his hand and looked at the time again. It was 11:30 in the middle of the night. Logically, Wendong shouldn't go to bed so early.

He took out his mobile phone and called. After a long time, when he was about to hang up, Wen Dong answered the phone: "Brother Lin? What's the matter? Wait..."

Hua Lin listened to the noisy background sound from Wen Dong, and guessed that he was in the bar. He was always restless, but now he became irritable. No matter what Wen Dong said, he hung up the phone.
