A corner of ten years

Tao Xiaodong changed, he became taciturn, tucked his knees in a daze all day long, and even had Li Cheng feed him a meal with a spoon, and he barely ate two bites, sometimes he stared at Li Cheng for a long time, and Li Cheng felt that he Not looking at him, because he was still staring at that point after he stood up, he didn't know what Tao Xiaodong was thinking, that day when he took Tao Xiaodong to see a psychiatrist, he smashed up his office the moment he entered the treatment room, After running away, Li Cheng caught up with him and hugged him tightly. He was buried in Li Cheng's chest sobbing like a wounded beast.

"I'm not sick, I don't want to see a doctor, Li Cheng, can you take me home?"

Li Cheng tightened his grip on him and said heavily, "Okay!"

At night, Tao Xiaodong sat on the plush carpet in the living room, looking at the dim lights outside, his back was thin and thin, Li Cheng knelt down in front of him, touched his head, "The expression is so stinky, take Abao back to live How about two days?"

Tao Xiaodong buried his face in his arms and shook his head.

"Then let Tuo Tuo come over, that's your son, you don't even miss him?"

"..."

"Well, I don't like those fluffy little guys anymore, so how about we go have a big meal? Don't you like... Sigh!" Li Cheng was hit on the ground by Tao Xiaodong who rushed over, and he put his hands on the ground to avoid the two of them. All fell down.

Li Cheng patted Tao Xiaodong on the back, "What's wrong?"

Tao Xiaodong just shook his head, put his face against Li Cheng's chest, and hugged his waist tightly with his arms, as if grabbing a life-saving floating board.

Li Cheng was also silent, holding Tao Xiaodong in his arms, this was the only comfort he could give him.

Li Cheng's low pressure even made Zhang Shijie go around, Li Cheng made a look with his wine glass, and asked Zhang Shijie, who was three meters away from him, to sit over.

Zhang Shijie bit the bullet and sat down on the corner of the table farthest from him.

"How did Tao Xiaodong get into Tanghui?" Li Cheng cut to the chase.

"This matter is quite complicated." Zhang Shijie was a little embarrassed, "At first, it was sent from below. You can ask Manager Song for the specific details. I don't know much about what happened later. Don't look at me like this. I really don't know. Even Xiaobai brought him back and said that he would be a waiter in Tanghui, but I didn't care too much."

Li Cheng glanced at him, Zhang Shijie felt guilty, turned his head and took a sip of wine, Li Cheng got up and went to find Manager Song.

Tao Xiaodong is reading a book in the living room, stepping on the carpet with his bare feet, this appearance is still relatively good.

The doorbell rang, and Li Cheng welcomed an elegant and generous beauty. He warmly introduced to both parties: "This is my alumni from the university, Ms. Li Liquan."

"This is my...brother, Tao Xiaodong."

Miss Li smiled softly, "Your little brother is really cute, both brothers are handsome men."

Tao Xiaodong rushed to the visitor and nodded, then closed the book and went into the study. Now the thorns all over his body are sticking up again, strangers are the least trustworthy.

There was chatter and laughter outside, and they made coffee and talked about some old friends and old things in the university. It turned out that it was really a gathering of old friends, and the mood relaxed a little.

After a while, the door of the study room opened, Miss Li came in with a cup of coffee, and put it casually on the corner of the table, "I hid when I saw me just now, there is no way to make friends with the beautiful little brother, I invite you to drink my coffee Make coffee, see if it is as good as your brother's."

Tao Xiaodong smiled at him, but didn't move.

Miss Li didn't feel embarrassed at all, and sat on the carpet with him, took the book away from his hand, looked at the cover, "Meet a [-]% girl, do you like Haruki Murakami?"

Probably infected by the calm and generous sister in front of her, she gradually let go of her guard, "Well, I like his Kafka by the Sea the most."

……

Li Cheng looked in the direction of the study and let out a sigh of relief.

Miss Li chatted with Tao Xiaodong all afternoon, and when they came out, they were already good friends, Li Cheng stood up and looked at them nervously, Miss Li winked playfully at him, implying that he was relieved.

After sending Miss Li away, Tao Xiaodong seemed to be a lot more cheerful, at least he can now say: "I want to eat sweet and sour pork with pineapple."

Li Cheng didn't react for a while, and stayed for two seconds, holding Tao Xiaodong's face and smacking, smiling happily, "I'll do it now."

Ms. Li has now become a frequent visitor to Li Cheng's house. Tao Xiaodong is very attached to her. The two of them can spend a whole afternoon doing puzzles and chatting together. Ms. Li brought some small flowers and grasses for him. He is very happy, so she wants to A caring big sister, talking to her is not a burden, and you can talk about everything. After three weeks, the two of them are so good that even Li Cheng is jealous.

This afternoon, Ms. Li coaxed Tao Xiaodong to take a nap, and came downstairs to see Li Cheng preparing coffee and dessert on the table with a smile.

"Come here quickly, great hero."

Ms. Li was also polite, picked up the dessert on the table and took a bite, "It tastes good, but it's a bit sweet."

"He likes to eat sweets." Li Cheng also sat down, clasped his hands, and said hesitantly, "Maybe he already told you what happened after he entered Tanghui?"

Miss Li smiled and said, "Yes, I told you about it a week ago."

Li Cheng opened his eyes wide, "So early? Will he tell you?"

"Yes", Miss Li put down the pastry in her hand, raised her head, and stared at Li Cheng calmly, "Because he believes in me, too many of you have deceived him, and his trust in this world has collapsed, he is too insecure So, he always wanted to close himself up, this is the only way he can protect himself."

Ms. Li was a little excited. She made friends with her patient. She knew his situation well, so she would inevitably defend her friend.

Li Cheng said, "Can you tell me what happened?"

"Sorry, this is the patient's privacy. As a doctor, I have no right to disclose it."

"I'm his brother."

"Oh? Really?" Miss Li sneered, "His surname is not Li."

Li Cheng was defeated. Although Ms. Li was his friend, she had always been helpful, and her sharp words often hit the nail on the head. Li Cheng leaned back in his chair and said dejectedly, "What can I do?"

"Love, give him a lot of love." Ms. Li folded her arms, her sharp eyes swept over, "I know that Young Master Li has always had a lot of people in his hands, it's a bit strange for you to give up the whole forest for a small grass It's hard to push, but if you can't do it, let him go, that kid has gone through too much."

"..."

"I think you already know how he got into the Tang Club. Now I want to help him rebuild the trust between people. Maybe you are willing to help me, but it will make you bleed."

Li Cheng raised his head, his gaze was firm, "Say it, I'll do it."
