"Do you remember the cat in the picture?"

Looking back, Jian Luobei saw that it was Qiao Yixi who had just taken a shower and changed into clean clothes. He looked at it so seriously that he didn't even notice when he came to her side.

But why did Qiao Yixi ask such a question?

"This cat?" Jian Luobei pointed to Brother Xiaobei on the sofa, "Isn't it?"

The wet hair was still dripping water, flowing down the slender neck and into the deep collarbone. Qiao Yixi, who was supposed to wipe his hair with a towel, stopped moving. He just stared at Jian Luobei like this. Want to see something from the other person's face.

But there was no other emotion in the other party's eyes except bewilderment.

Qiao Yixi pursed her lips, and after saying "it is it", she turned around and pulled the suitcase in the corner into her bedroom.

Jian Luobei: "..."

I don't know why, but I always feel that something is wrong with Qiao Yixi when he comes back this time.

Often half-spoken, even if there is a problem, I don’t directly point it out, holding back in my heart, which roundworm I want to guess?

Jian Luobei took off his peaked cap and sat on the sofa, gently scratched Xiaobei's chin, and sighed: "Your father..."

It's not as cute as when I was a child.

Although not very cute when I was a child.

No, why is Qiao Xixi Xiaobei's father?What is that self?

He treats Xiao Bei as his brother!

So he quickly changed his words: "Hey, your brother."

"Dabei, Xiaoxi, the wontons are ready, come and eat them!" Aunt Qiao greeted them with a bowl at the dining table next to the kitchen.

Jian Luobei straightened up from the sofa: "Here we come."

Qiao Yixi, who was in the bedroom, also came out and sat opposite Jian Luobei.

Jian Luobei took the chopsticks from Aunt Qiao: "Thank you, Aunt Qiao."

As soon as the wontons were served on the table, the familiar aroma instantly awakened Jian Luobei's appetite, and he picked one up and put it in his mouth. The skin was thin and the filling was rich, and the soup was delicious. The taste was so good that he couldn't help but sigh: " Auntie, your craftsmanship is still as good as before!"

"Then you should eat more, there is still more in the pot!"

Aunt Qiao grinned from ear to ear after receiving the praise, and then filled a bowl of wontons and put them in front of Qiao Yixi: "Xiaoxi, you should eat more too. I heard your team leader call and say that you ran away without eating lunch." came back……"

"Come back half a day early on a hungry stomach, and go to school as soon as you come back. Is there anything you are anxious about?"

Qiao Yixi was silent for a second, then raised his eyes to look at the boy opposite, saw that he was eating well with his head down, and then replied lightly: "It's nothing urgent, but the bed in the hotel is not as comfortable as sleeping at home. After the exam is over, I will come back early."

"That's it, but I still have to eat in the future, it hurts my stomach."

"Well, remember."

In fact, Jian Luobei, who was listening to the two of them with his ears up:?

Qiao Yixi accepts the bed?no?

Obviously, when I was a child, I slept soundly in my own bed!

"Da Bei," was suddenly called by Aunt Qiao, Jian Luobei quickly raised his head, and met Qiao Yixi's eyes, but the latter quickly lowered his eyes, and took a sip of wonton soup from the bowl.

She must have used soup to cover up her guilty conscience, Jian Luobei thought.

"What's the matter, Aunt Joe?"

"It's okay, I just remembered that you and Xiaobei were the best friends when you were young, and then you left suddenly, Xiaoxi was still sad..."

"Mom." Qiao Yixi hurriedly interrupted Aunt Qiao's words before she finished speaking.

"What's the matter?" Mother Qiao and Jian Luobei both looked at Qiao Xixi suspiciously.

I saw Qiao Yixi standing up from his seat with a bowl in his hand. I don't know if it was because of embarrassment or other reasons. Jian Luobei found that the tips of his ears were very red, and the crimson color stretched directly to the skin below the earlobe, almost halfway. All necks are smudged pink.

"...It's okay, I just wanted to ask if you still have soup in the kitchen."

"Of course, do you want more?"

"Ah."

"I'll help you fill it up."

When Aunt Qiao came back again, she still had a glass of water in her hand, and put the wontons with soup in front of Qiao Yixi: "Are you so thirsty?"

Qiao Xixi picked up the glass and nodded.

But after his interruption, Mother Qiao didn't continue to mention the matter just now. After ordering the two of them to eat slowly, they went into the kitchen to clean up the kitchen utensils. Now only Jian Luobei and Qiao Yixi were left on the dining table.

Neither of the two of them spoke anymore, and the surroundings were so quiet for a while, except for the sound of water in the kitchen, there was only the sound of the two people's bowls and chopsticks colliding.

It was past ten o'clock after a supper, Jian Luobei declined Mama Qiao's proposal to let him stay overnight, and went to the door to put on his shoes and prepare to go home.

At this time, Mother Qiao said to Qiao Yixi who was cleaning up the dining table: "Xiaoxi, put the bowls and chopsticks there first, and mother will clean up later, you hurry to send Beibei off."

Qiao Yixi paused and said, "Okay."

When she left Qiao's house and went downstairs, Jian Luobei still couldn't hold back and pulled open a piece of advertising paper, and curled her lips when she saw the handwriting below.

"These things are still there."

"I thought you didn't remember anything from the past." Qiao Yixi, who was walking behind, suddenly answered.

"Why don't you remember? It's not in the TV series. I haven't seen it for a few years, and I still have an amnesia meme."

However, Jian Luobei still felt that Qiao Yixi's words were strange, and there was an inexplicable sour taste in them. He looked up at him, frowning slightly: "But what do you say? Did I forget something?" ?”

"Yes, you forgot some things... You forgot about Xiaobei, you said before that you would raise him."

Qiao Yixi stood on the stairs a few steps higher than Jian Luobei. He was originally looking down at the other person, but his eyes gradually took on accusations, as if the person opposite him was a heartless person who deceived his feelings.

"Xiao Bei? Should I raise it?"

Jian Luobei paused, and began to search quickly in the deep sea of ​​memory, and he finally found it after a few seconds.

That was four years ago, when Jian Luobei was still in Yancheng, he found a newly weaned kitten in the flower bed of the community, and ran home to feed it bread and ham.

Although this little kitten is thin and small, it has an amazing appetite. Jian Luobei fed it once, and the kitten was lying at Jian Luobei's feet, and its belly was exposed to him.

"Xiao Yixi, look at this cat, it's not afraid of me, it even lets me touch it!"

"Well! Such a cute kitten, but where is its mother?"

"No, maybe it's the only one here?"

As if understanding what the two of them said, the kitten meowed and rubbed against their feet affectionately, so the two little boys knelt down head to head and looked at it, happily and cautiously, for fear that their movements would cause serious problems if they didn’t pay attention. to scare it away.

"How about we take it home and raise it!"

Just as Jian Luobei was about to get started and was about to catch the kitten, a dog barked not far away, and the kitten immediately became more vigilant and got into the bushes, and the thin figure quickly disappeared.

The two called "Mimi" for a long time, but the cat never came out again.

"Looks like he ran away." Jian Luobei looked a little disappointed.

Qiao Xixi comforted him: "It's okay Beibei, let's try again next time we meet."

Two days later, they met the cat again in the same place. The two still fed the cat, but the cat was still too sensitive to human capture, and the two returned without success.

"But this time the kitten let me touch it, next time, next time I must take it home!"

But before the next time, Jian Luobei suddenly moved.

"It's this one, I remembered..." Jian Luobei touched his nose and looked at Qiao Yixi, "I didn't expect you to bring it home later, didn't Aunt Qiao not allow you to keep it at first? ?”

"After asking for a few more times, I agreed." Qiao Yixi went downstairs and passed by Jian Luobei, "My mother fed Xiaobei so fat."

Sure enough, no one can escape the law of true fragrance.

Jian Luobei followed him with a smile, and the two went downstairs together side by side: "What else? Is there anything else I forgot?"

The sparse chirping of insects at night in the late summer and the voice-activated lights in the stairwell that will be turned off quickly when no one talks, seem to drag people's memories far away.

In the dark, Qiao Yixi looked at Jian Luobei, his eyes clearly said "Yes, there are many", but his lips moved a few times, but he spit out the word "No".

It's so appetizing again.

"……Fine."

Jian Luobei put his hands in his pockets, but suddenly felt something in his pockets.

"By the way, your pendant is still with me." Jian Luobei took out the things in his pocket and showed them in front of Qiao Yixi, grinning, "By the way, I'm quite curious who is your rumored mysterious girlfriend? We were classmates when we were in the same class?"

Hearing this sentence, Qiao Yixi's expression became very indescribable. He stared at Jian Luobei's face for a few seconds, then turned his head, not sure if he didn't want to say anything, or he didn't know what to say.

Jian Luo looked at his reaction, only thinking that he was shy.

"Well, if you don't say it, don't say it."

Jian Luobei picked up the thin rope on the pendant: "But since you stepped on it and broke it, I must repair it and return it to the original owner."

"..." Qiao Yixi: "It's up to you."

Jian Luobei promised: "Don't worry, I will repair it for you."

"Okay, send it here, I'm going upstairs, you can go back too." Then he turned and walked into the seven buildings.

Qiao Yixi stood on the spot and watched Jian Luobei's disappearing back, and turned around with lowered eyes.

When Jian Luobei returned home, his parents still hadn't returned. He threw away his hat and schoolbag and went straight into the bathroom.

He was sweating a lot from playing during the day, and he wanted to take a shower a long time ago.

At Qiao's house just now, if it wasn't for Aunt Qiao's presence, he would have been somewhat embarrassed, and he followed Qiao Yixi into the bathroom. Anyway, Qiao's house was like his second home, and the two of them often washed together when they were young.

After taking a shower soon, Jian Luobei wrapped a towel and walked out of the bathroom. As soon as he turned on the phone, a flood of news came.

Group chat, classmates and friends in Nancheng, and more than a dozen friend requests.

It doesn't matter who is applying, the left and right are just classmates from Class [-] who just met.

Soon a message popped up.

Zhang Wenzhe: "."

Zhang Wenzhe: "You finally agreed, brother."

Jian Luobei: "Is there something wrong?"

Zhang Wenzhe: "Why are you so indifferent, thankfully I have said a lot of good things about you to Brother Qiao."

Jian Luobei: "..."

Zhang Wenzhe: "Brother Qiao said after school that he wasn't angry with us, so I said Brother Qiao has the best temper!"

Jian Luobei thought to herself, didn't Xie Fei say these words? You are the one who is afraid of dying, and besides, do you still need to say my kind words?

"I know." Jian Luobei typed three words.

"You know? How do you know?"

"I asked when I went home with Joe West."

"???go home together???"

Jian Luobei typed slowly and sent: "Don't you know? We are in the same community."

Zhang Wenzhe said he was frightened: "!! Isn't it?!! Then don't you two have known each other for a long time??"

"It's not so early, we met when we were only one year old."

"........."

After a long while, Zhang Wenzhe's autistic and sour news came from the dialogue window: "I'm so nervous all day long. I can't compare to the relationship between you two."

"You don't have to belittle yourself."

"? That's what you say?"

"I haven't seen you for four years, the relationship has faded."

Jian Luobei added half-jokingly: "I only see the newcomers laughing, but I don't hear the old ones crying."
