After amnesia, monopolized by paranoia

After Li Xiang went back, he got a baked sweet potato as a matter of course. He handed a small bag of snacks to Bao Ranran. Bao Ranran smiled and immediately lost interest in the baked sweet potato in his hand. Take the sweet potato and swallow it in a few bites.

It's really nothing to say that he is kind to Bao Ranran.

Qi Rang thought of his brother and fell silent.

After eating the roasted sweet potatoes, Bao Ranran went home with a small bag of snacks, and his mother would come out to find someone later.

The back of Bao Ranran bouncing away fell into the eyes of the two people behind him. Qi Rang was a little envious of his carefree state, but Li Xiang's eyes were a little strange.

"He was kidnapped." Li Xiang said suddenly.

Qi Rang looked away in astonishment: "Huh?"

"Of course he was abducted at the age of four, and now he doesn't remember that he was abducted. But I promised him that I would help him find his biological parents."

"That's why Aunt Bao...?"

"Well, I called the police, so she didn't dare to let Ranran approach me."

"They all called the police, why is Bao Ranran still here?"

Li Xiang lowered his eyes, "There are too many things that cannot be resolved by calling the police."

Qi Rang was dumbfounded. He originally wanted to say that at such a young age, Li Xiang didn't have to suffer so much, but in the end he swallowed his words, patted Li Xiang's head and said, "Most of the time, the police will do their best to help you." our."

It started to rain at night, and the temperature suddenly dropped a lot. Qi Rang slept a little restlessly, and had a long and chaotic dream.

Many of them are about the past. In his memory, the family relationship has never been so harmonious. His mother always whispered in his ears that he cannot be compared with his elder brother and that he must get the property of the Qi family, but he always Wanting to be by her brother's side, Qi Yuebai's every move seems to have a special attraction for him.

At the age when love first started, he quickly determined that he fell in love with his brother—a brother who was not related by blood.

Qi Rang has never been rejected by his elder brother. He originally thought that this matter would be very simple. He confessed, and then his elder brother would touch his head and tell him: "Okay."

But in fact, the development of the matter was completely different from his imagination. His brother rejected him coldly and firmly, and in the following days, he never accepted his feelings.

Qi Rang is passionate about many things for 3 minutes. If the friend beside him is not Lu Bei who harbors evil intentions, maybe he will be the same as before, gradually forgetting his thoughts when he was hotheaded.

But Lu Bei kept mentioning Qi Yuebai in his ear, teaching him how to pursue Qi Yuebai. The longer time passed, the more he was coldly rejected by his brother, and the feelings gradually fermented into a blind love that Qi Rang could not control himself.

When Qi Rang woke up, Shang was still immersed in a dream, his eyes were a little dazed, until he went out and was blown by the cold wind, he was shocked, and he came back to God and said: "Why is it so cold all of a sudden?"

Li Xiang in front of the stove replied in a calm tone: "Yesterday it was the beginning of winter."

"are not you cold?"

Li Xiang was still only wearing a long-sleeved thin shirt that didn't fit very well, and his thin shoulder blades vaguely protruded from the shape of butterfly wings. It is conceivable how thin his body was under the shirt, but his back was straight, as if a little Can't feel the cold.

In fact, it's not that Li Xiang can't feel the cold, but that he doesn't have suitable clothes to change into.

"I'm used to it."

Li Xiang only has two seasons of clothes - deep winter and hot summer, and the rest of the time he can barely survive with unsuitable clothes.

Qi Rang was stabbed in the bottom of his heart, pursed his lips and said, "I'm not used to it."

"So are you going to buy clothes?"

"Yes! Let's go to the county town to buy!"

Although the county town is not very luxurious, clothing stores are still everywhere. On the contrary, the larger the city, the harder it is to find clothing stores.

Qi Rang did not hesitate to choose a clothing store with the largest storefront, and chose some thicker clothes for himself. When he went to the children's clothing area on the second floor, he dragged Li Xiang to choose a few sets.

Li Xiang didn't really want to go to the fitting room, looked at the clothes in the shopping guide's hands from a distance, shook his head and said: "You don't need to buy clothes for me, and you are still willing to live in my house, which is already the biggest thing for me." Helped."

"I live quite comfortably in your house," Qi Rang replied, "Money and goods are equal, I didn't help you."

"In any case, I should thank you."

"If you really appreciate it, I'll try it. I'm rich and powerful, so I'm willing to spend some money for you, okay?"

"Why are you being so nice to me?"

"How can I treat you so well? It's all right, you can change your clothes quickly, the shopping guide's hands are sore."

The shopping guide also took advantage of the opportunity and persuaded: "Go and try it, see if it fits, if it doesn't fit, just put it back. Your brother is willing to buy clothes for you, and it's too late for others to envy you. Come on, the fitting room is here."

"Go, go, show me if it looks good. I'm an art student, so I definitely have good eyesight."

Li Xiang was a little surprised: "You studied art?"

"Yes, yes, go in!"

Qi Rang simply stretched out his hand and pushed Li Xiang into the fitting room, and it would be dark any longer.

In less than 2 minutes, Li Xiang changed his clothes and came out.

Qi Rang had long discovered that the child's facial features were not bad, and the delicateness would immediately improve after careful cleaning. If the skin were a little fairer, he would really look like a little son raised by some family.

The shopping guide's eyes lit up, and he praised Li Xiang from head to toe. By the way, he didn't forget to praise Qi Rang's unique vision. Li Xiang was a little embarrassed by her praise, so he secretly went to see Qi Rang's reaction.

Qi Rang was very proud, and stuffed another set of clothes into Li Xiang's arms, "Go and try this one too."

Li Xiang looked at Qi Rang and asked again: "So you studied art?"

"Yeah, what's the problem?"

"Of course, painting is very beautiful, but his mother thought it was too expensive to learn painting, so he didn't let him learn it. Do you have time to teach him?"

Qi Rang thought what was the matter, and responded readily: "It's so simple, I'll teach him when I get back, you hurry up and try on this suit."

Li Xiang was also a little bit broken, and walked into the fitting room by himself without being pushed.

The new sports suit Li Xiang also looked good in. It lined his waist and slender legs. The large area of ​​dark green color made his dark skin no longer so conspicuous, but full of youthful vigor and vitality.

Qi Rang suddenly understood what it feels like to be a father. It turns out that raising a son is such a happy thing.

After changing several sets of clothes in a row, Qi Rang was still in high spirits, but Li Xiang resolutely refused, "Two sets of clothes are enough to change, and buying more is a waste."

Qi Rang wanted to persuade him again: "How can clothes be called a waste? You can wear them anyway."

"That's enough for me."

Seeing Li Xiang's firm attitude, Qi Rang could only compromise: "...Okay, let's do this first."

Just now, I have bought a lot of things. The shopping guide packed several bags, large and small, and handed them to Qi Rang with a happy smile, and personally sent the person to the door.

Li Xiang took the small ticket, looked at it a few times, lowered his eyes, folded the ticket and put it in his pocket.

Qi Rang noticed his movements and asked, "Why keep this?"

Li Xiang replied solemnly: "I will definitely return it to you in the future."

"I gave it to you, don't ask you to return it."

Li Xiang didn't speak.

"Have you heard?" Qi Rang was afraid that Li Xiang hadn't listened, so he emphasized: "You are not allowed to return it to me, and I will not ask for it!"

Li Xiang raised his head and looked straight at Qi Rang: "Why are you being so nice to me?"

"Is this what you call being good to you? I didn't do anything either."

"No one has ever been so nice to me..."

Qi Rang was thinking that Li Xiang was too miserable for this child, so he heard the other party speak the second half of the sentence slowly: "I seem to like you a little bit."

Qi Rang: "???"

Qi Rang: "..."

"Are you okay?" Qi Rang asked seriously, if he wasn't holding something in his hand, he would even touch Li Xiang's forehead to see if he had a fever.

"Why? Can't I like you?"

"Of course not. How old are you compared to me? You are just a younger brother in my eyes. You must not like me. Listen to me, you are still young, and you can't tell what liking is. When you grow up You'll know at one point, you don't call me liking, but family affection, you know?"

"I'm not a fool, I can clearly distinguish my feelings."

"Anyway, you'll understand when you grow up."

"You can't ignore my expression just because I'm younger than you. I'm young, but I don't think my feelings are any less than any adult."

Qi Rang opened his mouth, but suddenly thought of Qi Yuebai.

After recovering the memory, as long as he hears or sees similar scenes, he will recall a certain part of the memory along the way.

For example, now, he suddenly remembered that a similar conversation had happened between him and Qi Yuebai, and his elder brother had used the same words to reject him - you are still young, and you have experienced very little, maybe after a while, you You will find that this sudden relationship does not represent anything.

Qi Rang in the past couldn't accept his brother's words at all, and now Li Xiang somehow overlapped.

Qi Rang's good mood came to an abrupt end, he pressed the top of Li Xiang's head and forced to turn back not to look at him again: "I'm hungry, let's go eat."

After eating, the two of them just caught the last train and returned to Tai'an Village. It was already dark when they returned home.

Li Xiang was planning to cook something to eat, but Qi Rang quickly stopped him, "Didn't you just eat it? Don't be too busy."

"But don't you think it takes a lot of energy to ride a car?"

Qi Rang didn't expect Li Xiang to memorize the words he complained casually. He felt a little complicated, and said, "It's not that far, and I bought so much food today. If I'm really hungry, I'll eat whatever Just eat a little."

Li Xiang was serious: "Eating snacks at night is not good."

"What's wrong? Eat snacks or eat, and you won't lose one or two of the meat you should grow."

"It's not about gaining weight. You're so thin, you should eat more."

"You should make yourself fat first. You are still a child, so you can take care of the adults' business."

"I'm just younger than you, but in terms of independence of thought, there is no difference between us, and the boundary between adults and children is not simply determined by age."

Qi Rang used to confess to his brother like this all day long. When he heard this, the alarm immediately sounded, he gave Li Xiang a look, and walked into the house: "I've been running outside for a day. I'm so tired. I'm so tired." Go to bed first."

Li Xiang followed closely behind: "can I sleep with you?"

Qi Rang was so startled by these words that he staggered and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, he supported the wall in time, and managed to maintain his elder brother's dignity.

"Is it okay?" Li Xiang followed behind Qi Rang and asked again.

"No!" Qi Rang stood up straight and categorically refused, "I'm not used to sleeping with other people."

"Is it because I said something wrong today, so you want to alienate me?"

"It's not alienation! It's alienation when you can't do something that you could have done. We've never slept together before."

"I don't think that's the definition of alienation. Alienation should be an attitude of wanting to draw a line, which is obviously what you are doing now."

Qi Rang was speechless by a 12-year-old kid.

If you can't say it, you can only dismantle it violently.

He pressed Li Xiang's shoulder and pushed him out, still saying: "Go back to your own room, I'm sleepy, I'm going to sleep."

Li Xiang looked at Qi Rang calmly as if a little sad: "Then I won't disturb your sleep."

Qi Rang was inexplicably blocked, but he still cruelly left Li Xiang's sight.

It is absolutely impossible for this matter to have other results, and he did not feel how bad this matter was. Li Xiang was only 12 years old. Looking back, when he was 12 years old, he knew little about falling in love, let alone How deeply he likes someone, and Li will forget about it in a short time.

In fact, what made Qi Rang most anxious about the whole thing was that Li wanted him to think of his brother.

Whether it is from the relationship similar to "brother □ □" or Li Xiang's rhetoric, they all bring him back to the memory.

For a while, Qi Rang recalled his brother's restraint and tenderness after he lost his memory, for a while he remembered the heartache and despair that his brother showed when he helped him detoxify, and for a while he remembered the madness and determination of his brother who fell with me with the pill in his mouth...

Occasionally, a question would quickly flash in his mind, did he really hide his whereabouts from City C so well?So far, it seems that the elder brother has not gotten the slightest news from him.

When thinking of this, Qi Rang was not completely happy, but turned over anxiously.

That night, Qi Rang tossed and turned and stayed up all night.

Li Xiang gets up early in the morning, he has already developed a biological clock that is comparable to an alarm clock, and the number of times he stays in bed throughout the year can be counted on his fingers.

After bringing Qi Rang back, apart from occasionally going to bed late, he still woke up at 06:30 in the morning, made breakfast and ate by himself first, and then waited for Qi Rang to wake up naturally while studying.

Li Xiang tidied up the bed quickly, and when he walked to the door, he found that the door was not locked. He glanced thoughtfully at the direction of Qi Rang's bedroom, opened the door and walked out.

"Why did you get up so early?" Li Xiang asked when Qi Rang, who was sitting by the yard, came into view just after he left the house.

"Can't sleep."

"Did my words bring you so much pressure?"

Qi Rang looked at Li Xiang quietly: "Don't put gold on your face, I didn't suffer from insomnia because of you."

"What's that for?"

"...It's nothing." Qi Rang didn't want to talk about his brother, so he turned his head and left the back of his head for Li Xiang, obviously refusing to communicate.

In the past, Qi Rang always thought that Li Xiang was a very witty kid, even a little too witty, but he didn't know what medicine Li Xiang had taken wrongly today. Want to say something to him.

Qi Rang was so annoyed that he wanted to drive Li Xiang to study, but he heard Li Xiang say that he had finished his junior high school textbooks.

"real or fake?"

Facing Qi Rang's obviously suspicious eyes, Li Xiang said: "You can finish the test casually, if I can't answer well, I won't take the initiative to talk to you."

That feeling is good!

Qi Rang had to make Li Xiang shut up, and chose two additional questions from the book for Li Xiang to do. Li Xiang only read the questions for a while, and didn't seem to spend much time thinking about them, and quickly solved the questions.

Qi Rang: "..."

Isn't this more troublesome?How could such a bright kid go astray?And it happened to be hanging on his crooked neck tree!

Did your older brother think the same way?

This sentence is like a curse, as long as Qi Rang thinks of it, he will keep thinking of his brother, and it cannot be avoided no matter what.

Qi Rang was physically and mentally exhausted, he blocked his ears and refused to listen to Li Xiang beeping, and he was not temporarily liberated until Bao Ranran came to play.

Qi Rang still remembered what he promised Li Xiang yesterday, squatting in front of Bao Ranran and asked, "Ran Ran, do you like painting?"

Bao Ranran nodded heavily: "I like it!"

"My brother also likes to draw, but would you like to take a look at the paintings my brother drew?"

"Is it possible?" Bao Ranran's eyes widened suddenly, and she looked at Qi Rang brightly, "I want to see my brother draw!"

Qi Rang found a set of paper and pen and came out without an eraser, and skillfully sketched out a Q version of Bao Ranran.

He focused on the part of the eyes, which is obviously a Q-version character with an out-of-scale ratio, but if someone knows Bao Ranran, he will definitely recognize him as Bao Ranran at the first sight of this painting.

"Wow, let my brother paint well!" Bao Ranran admired her eyes, and even patted her belly happily.

Li wanted to notice Bao Ranran's reaction and couldn't help leaning over to take a look.

"You draw really well." Li Xiang sighed sincerely.

Qi Rang waved his hands modestly on the surface, "It's okay to see it."

Bao Ranran couldn't see that Qi Rang was pretending to be modest, so he rushed forward and said, "Brother Rang draws very beautifully, even better than the ones in the book!"

"Then Ranran wants to learn painting from my brother? In the future, Ranran can draw as beautifully as my brother."

"However, drawing is not good-looking..."

"After you learn it, you will become beautiful, but don't you want to draw beautifully?"

Bao Ranran glanced at Li Xiang quietly, got a nod of encouragement, and immediately hugged Qi Rang's arm, "Of course I want to learn, but in the future I want to draw as beautifully as my brother!"

Qi Rang first asked Bao Ranran to draw whatever he wanted. Bao Ranran tilted his head and thought for a while, staring at the Q-version villain that Qi Rang had just drawn, and drew a villain himself.

Bao Ranran's writing skills are average, no different from most unpolished novices, but his ability to imitate surprised even Qi Rang, except for some small details, the overall proportions are actually quite perfect.

It's no wonder that Li Xiang wanted him to take Bao Ranran with him. With his talent, he must be able to earn a living studying art.

Knowing Bao Ranran's level, Qi Rang began to teach Bao Ranran from controlling the pen, and half the morning seemed to pass in the blink of an eye.

Bao Ranran studied very hard, and before running back to eat, he kept telling Qi Rang that he would be back soon.

Qi Rang naturally agreed happily, now he was eager to find something to do for himself, and he had better be so busy that he couldn't stop for a moment, so that Li Xiang would have no chance to talk to him.

Throughout the afternoon, Li Xiang really couldn't talk to Qi Rang. Bao Ranran practiced his pen control all afternoon, and he was able to draw lines in different directions according to Qi Rang's request.

Qi Rang remembered that he was not as fast as Bao Ranran in learning painting before. After all, arranging cables is really a boring and eye-consuming thing. Bao Ranran's ability to do this not only shows that he is talented, but also shows that he is Really like drawing.

If only he could go back to his parents...

Qi Rang added another note to remembering to help Li Xiang's little book - try his best to help Bao Ranran find his biological parents.

It's a pity that Bao Ranran was too young when he was abducted, and he couldn't remember where he lived or his family, otherwise it would be much easier to find him.

After staying up at night, Qi Rang had no reason to keep Bao Ranran anymore, he could only watch Bao Ranran run away happily waving his little hands.

As soon as Bao Ranran left, Li Xiang let out a long sigh.

"Why are you sighing?" Qi Rang couldn't help asking.

"You know I like you..."

"so?"

"You keep talking to Ranran but ignore me, shouldn't I sigh?"

Qi Rang looked like a ghost: "Bao Ranran is only seven years old!"

"But I'm not seven."

Qi Rang: "...Go back to sleep, you are so young, don't think about things."

Li Xiang refused to let go, and followed Qi Rang's pace, "Do you have someone you like?"

Qi Rang paused and did not answer. Li Xiang continued to ask: "If there is no one you like, it is not impossible to try to like me, right?"

"……impossible."

"why?"

"There is."

Li Xiang was silent for a moment, as if he finally realized the question Qi Rang asked before answering him, "Who do you like?"

Qi Rang closed his eyes, and the first thing that popped into his mind was a tall figure standing under the moonlight, with a lit cigarette between his lips, and the cigarette butt shone with scarlet light as he breathed.

He exhaled a puff of thick white smoke, engulfing the unclear facial features, like a mysterious ghost hidden in the thick fog in the mountains, tempting people to pursue and fall.

"Who are you thinking about right now? Is it someone you like?"

Li Xiang's voice pulled Qi Rang out of the hallucination.

Qi Rang came back to his senses, and rubbed the forehead that suddenly felt a little swollen. Thanks to Li Xiang, he ran so far, but he still kept thinking of Qi Yuebai.

"It's up to you, my lord," Qi Rang pushed Li Xiang away and walked into the bedroom, "I taught your little brother Ran Ran all day, he's very tired, don't bother me."

At night, Qi Rang dreamed of his brother again.

It was a very bizarre dream. Qi Rang dreamed that they were running around in a distorted world, having sex and making love. In the end, Qi Yuebai swallowed him down.

Qi Rang almost woke up, he got up sweating profusely, and vaguely heard Li Xiang talking outside.

He had a vague premonition, but he didn't want to think about it, let alone analyze his complicated emotions at the moment, so he walked out calmly and step by step.

Qi Yuebai was standing by the yard, the morning light hadn't dispelled the autumn mist, he looked just like what Qi Rang recalled last night, in fact they were very close, but Qi Yuebai's gaze was It seems to have been cast across thousands of mountains and rivers, mysterious, heavy and airtight.

"Rang Rang, how are you doing recently?" Qi Yuebai asked, his tone was as indifferent and gentle as before, as if nothing had happened.

Qi Rang's chaotic thoughts suddenly calmed down. He knew that such a day would come, and that his brother would find him sooner or later.

The author has something to say: I'm back!

I was really busy a while ago, and I decided to go out for an internship on a temporary basis. I saw the recruitment information, went to the interview, and finally flew to Yunnan. The whole process took less than a week, so I was really busy after I came here, and I needed to adapt to many things, so I delayed it. for so long.
