When Mingxu came home at night, he had an extra key to the apartment in his hand.

The key was pinched in the hand, leaving a pitted mark on Mingxu's palm.He stood at the porch and called out "Sheng Ci" in disbelief.But after a long time, there was neither a smiling response nor a barefoot boy running towards him and hanging on him.

No one kissed his lips and said "Welcome Teacher Ming home", nor did they say "I'm starving to death, cook for me quickly".

Even the smell of grand words dissipated.

He slowly took off his suit and walked into the bedroom with slightly heavy steps.There was no change in the bedroom, it was as tidy as usual, except that a pair of gray rabbit ear house shoes were missing beside the bed.

He was sitting on the edge of the bed, and something scratched his leg.Turning over the quilt to see, it is a game console that has been thrown around without knowing how to clean it up.

Sheng Ci loves to play games, and his obsession with game consoles is second only to Mingxu, eating and sleeping.Mingxu rubbed the screen of the game console, and began to reflect on whether he was a little too strict with his children at noon.

The unthoughtful call has been dialed, the phone beeped for more than 20 seconds, and a mechanical female voice rang through the silent bedroom: "Hello, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable, please try again later..."

Ming Xu made a second call, but the second call was still not answered.

The strong wind outside the house was howling, and the windows were shaken slightly.Mingxu came back rationally, hung up immediately before dialing the third call, and sent a text message to Sheng Ci in a disguised manner, explaining the two missed calls: There is no other meaning, just want to tell you , you have something left behind.

The text message showed that it was sent successfully, Mingxu exited and turned off the screen.He didn't plan to continue to stay in the apartment where he lived with Sheng Ci for a long time, but planned to stay in another house until the mature Sheng Ci came back.It may also be because this apartment is too close to Sheng Ci's school, he doesn't like the feeling of thinking about Sheng Ci all the time, but can't sleep with Sheng Ci.

Maybe if you stay far away, you won't miss it so much.

The car has already started and is heading for a place ten kilometers away from the apartment.The home over there is closer to his company, and it is more convenient for him to work.

And there is no trace of grand words.

Sheng Ci said that the house over there was too big, and he didn't like it, so he didn't live there for a night, but he just liked to stay in a small apartment.

Ming Xu asked him "why", Sheng Ci just said "I feel very safe".

He didn't quite understand the relationship between the sense of security in Sheng Ci's mouth and the size of the house.He didn't understand Shengci's many actions, such as why he spends precious time on useless games, why he can't drink enough and must drink at parties, why he insists on eating fried buns in the south of the city when he is in the north of the city , why don't you take care of your body.

And why did you break up with him.

He couldn't get an answer, but he just hoped that Sheng Ci would find out how good he was to him when he was separated from him. a little.

Better hurry, he didn't want them to miss too long.

The neighborhood has arrived.Mingxu took the elevator and watched the number slowly rise.As soon as the door opened, there was a "ding" sound from the text message on the mobile phone.

Mingxu's frozen fingers struggled to open the text message in a little panic, and the other side responded politely and politely: Thank you, I will find a time to get it.

Sheng Ci politely put the phone on the right side.Disinfectant cotton was attached to the back of his left hand. He had a fever of 39 degrees and was in poor spirits just after receiving a drip.Just after replying to Mingxu's message, he covered himself with the overcoat that Fa Xiaozhang brought, curled up on the back seat and shivered slightly.

Zhang Yang glanced at the rearview mirror, "It's agreed, you must stay at my house, don't go to school, let my dad ask you for leave, and go when you recover from illness."

Half an hour ago, because of this incident and Zhang Yang's stubborn words, he gave a low "hmm".

After a moment of silence in the carriage, Zhang Yang cautiously asked, "You really broke up?"

"separated."

Zhang Yang's heart fell, and he sank again for Sheng Ci.He let out a snort, and said coolly: "Don't be afraid, brother, your brother and I have a lot of high-quality men here, so I don't have to worry about not having a new boyfriend. Besides, isn't there someone in your department who likes you? Consider getting acquainted."

Sheng Ci closed his heavy eyelids: "Don't think about it."

The mobile phone on the car seat suddenly lights up, which cannot be ignored in the dark car.Sheng Ci put his hands to his mouth and breathed out, picked up the phone, and was about to open the text message to check, when Mingxu's call suddenly came.

He pressed answer subconsciously, and after this action, he realized that they had already broken up, so "Teacher Ming" just stuck in his throat.

Zhang Yang looked at Sheng Ci's wandering mind, thought of the two phone calls he hung up in the hospital, and coughed a few times with guilt.

After a long silence, someone finally spoke up, and Mingxu asked in a low voice, "Who?"

Sheng Ci glanced out the window and said, "My friend."

Ming Xu didn't speak for a long time.

The neon lights are flashing backwards, and the roads under the car are constantly changing.Sheng Ci was leaning against the car window tiredly, his breathing was heavy and stuffy, his throat was so dry and sore that it was hoarse and itchy.

He was about to ask "What's the matter?" and wanted to end this boring phone call quickly, when Ming Xu asked him, "Do you have a fever?"

Sheng Ci's eyelashes trembled with his eyelids. Before he could figure out how Mingxu judged that he had a fever instead of a cold, Mingxu said, "You don't know how to take care of yourself."

Sheng Ci could imagine Ming Xu's expression when he said this, probably a slight frown, a little unhappy and incomprehensible.

You should always feel in your heart that "Sheng Ci can't do anything", and then say to Sheng Ci, "You have to learn how to take care of yourself".

But it's not that he doesn't know how to take care of himself, it's just that when he is in front of Mingxu, he hopes to get more care from Mingxu.

Because Mingxu is always busy, he hopes that Mingxu can pay more attention to him.

But Ming Xu always said that he was "childish" and "not mature enough".

"I can." Sheng Ci repeated: "I can take care of myself, don't bother you."

Ming Xu was silent for a while, then said "I hope", and then asked: "When will you come to pick up your things? I'll ask the driver to pick you up and give you the keys."

"No need." Sheng Ci replied quickly, "I'll go there by myself after the exam, and give the key to Uncle Wang."

Ming Xu never remembered people who were not related, Sheng Ci was worried that he would not remember, so he added: "It's the uncle who brought me hot milk."

Mingxu didn't say much after listening, and hung up the phone impatiently because of the grand words, and then said "I remember" with lowered eyes to the phone that had ended the call.
