Coquettish

He asked, "Are you waiting for the bus?"

Xie Yan was taken aback, but didn't realize what kind of opening this was, and couldn't make the first move, so he nodded very reservedly.

The man stood in front of Xie Yan, without a smile on his face, he just stated, "There was a car accident ahead, and the car couldn't drive."

This is the edge of the urban area, at the fringe of urban and rural areas. There is only one road, and the road conditions are not good. A car accident can easily cause the entire line to be unable to circulate again.Not only buses, but even taxis are not allowed.

Xie Yan was startled, and checked with her mobile phone. The news hasn't come out yet, so she doesn't know if it's true or not, so she can only say, "Thank you, I'll wait and see."

The man was still silent, his eyes paused on Xie Yan for a while, he didn't speak any more, and left through the rain.Xie Yan didn't look back at him, she could only hear the sound of footsteps gradually going away, and she didn't know where he went.

In fact, he still hasn't figured out why this person asked such a sentence.

The autumn rain was not heavy, and after a long time, Xie Yan's clothes were still drenched and cold to the bone.He wasn't very afraid of the cold, because there was no place to hide from the rain, so he didn't even move, but stood where he was. The rain condensed on his green hair, dripping down drop by drop, and slid down his forehead.

Xie Yan simply pulled off the mask, wiped her face, her hands were dyed a layer of green, it was the color of hair loss, and her face must not be much better.

It was finally dark outside, there was no more light in the sky, and the street lights were not on.

Xie Yan took out his phone again, it was covered with rain, and the screen could hardly be seen clearly. He searched for keywords, and the news came out after a while, and it turned out that there was a car accident, and the front was completely blocked.

He was in a bad mood today. He hit someone and lost his role. He was like a firecracker that exploded at one o'clock. Now that it was raining, the firecracker could not be lit.

It seemed that nothing went well, the luck was too much, but Xie Yan never gave up, he still stood up straight, looked up at the sky, let the rain splash into his eyes, thinking about when the rain would stop.If the rain doesn't stop, he'll have to find a place to spend the night, and he'll have to spend money.

Xie Yan doesn't have much money, and the salary she gets for acting as a corpse is not much, so she can't save money.In addition, some time ago, Xie Yan took over the male number five. In order to study the script and adjust the status, she pushed all the saved work. During this time, I relied on the little savings I saved before, and now it is almost used up.

It seems that tomorrow is also a day to continue to work hard to make money playing corpses.Xie Yan had played the role of a corpse in a large-scale costume war film at most six times, and each time the death pattern was different. He was idle and bored, and studied the differences in the death patterns caused by different death methods, and acted it on the set.It's a pity that no matter how hard you try, you're still a corpse, and dead people don't know how to speak lines.

Maybe it was because he was too focused, Xie Yan didn't notice the movement around him, he didn't know that the person hadn't left yet, but came over again.There was darkness all around, only the sound of rain. The man's voice came from the darkness. His voice was very low but very clear. He asked, "You can't leave. Are you going to my house to hide from the rain?"

They are just strangers who have never met before, and they shouldn't have such a conversation.Moreover, Xie Yan never accepted other people's kindness, or he just saw too much malice and never met a good person, so he didn't believe that there would be a good person in this world.

But now it is different from usual, Xie Yanleng's scalp is numb, he is very unconscious, very not calm, raised his head, blinked, the water drops in the eye sockets fell, a bit like tears.But Xie Yan would not cry, he heard himself say: "Okay."

Anyway, he is 20 years old, can the other party still abduct him?

The man gave a soft "hmm", turned around and walked in the other direction from where the bus came.

At about the set time, the street lights finally turned on, and Xie Yan followed the shadow of the other party through the rain.After walking for a while, the two turned into an alley. The alley was dark and long, and it suddenly became clear at the end. It was an old street. There were not many people on the street. They were scattered, and most of them were looking at their own shops. .

When the man led Xie Yan past, the shop owners would say hello, and the lady proprietress of the duck tongue shop was very hospitable, she said with a smile: "Brother Fu brought someone home to play? It's really rare. The duck tongue is only marinated." , do you want to take some back to entertain the guests?"

The man glanced at Xie Yan, and said to the proprietress: "Just take some."

Xie Yan noticed that the proprietress took everything, and the sum must not be a little, and the man didn't give the money, so he just took it away.The man went to a shop again, took a new set of clothes, wrapped them in several layers of plastic bags, and still didn't give him any money.

He thought to himself, could this person be the "big brother" of this street?

But this question must not be asked directly, Xie Yan usually doesn't like to talk, so now he has nothing to say, "Is your surname Fu?"

The man nodded, the green stubble on his scalp was covered with rainwater, and his thin short T-shirt was also soaked, the muscles inside couldn't be hidden at all, the fierceness became more obvious, very "big brother" style.

He paused for a moment, then said, "I'm Fu Qing."

Xie Yan didn't expect him to say his name, so he strategically omitted the polite address that should be addressed to the other party at this time, and introduced himself directly, "I'm Xie Yan."

What happened to "big brother"?He has never called someone brother in his life.

After a few words, the two of them walked to the front of a small courtyard.The gate of the courtyard was made of wood, and two pagoda trees were planted outside. Fu Qing stepped forward and opened the door. There were several bungalows inside, and there was a stone table in the yard, surrounded by stone benches.

Fu Qing waited for Xie Yan to come in before turning around and closing the door, "Go in and sit down." His voice raised slightly, "Master, I'm back."

An old man with white hair and beard came out of the room facing the gate. He was very thin, but very energetic. He could be seen to be in good health. He was only on crutches and wearing a pair of black sunglasses.

Xie Yan froze where he was. He grew up in an orphanage, so it was impossible for him to have the opportunity to visit other people's homes.Later, when he grew up, he was too busy to move bricks and act in plays, and he didn't make half a good friend, and no one invited him to play at home, so Xie Yan had no experience of meeting other people's parents at all.

He desperately recalled how the primary school textbooks taught him, and stumbled to parrot the words of the little people in the book, "Grandpa, grandpa, hello grandpa."

Xie Yan, the first thorn in the orphanage, was a little nervous.

Although Grandpa Fu couldn't see his eyes, but he had good ears, he didn't seem to be surprised by his existence at all, and said with a smile: "You are also welcome, come over here, talk to me, and let Ah Qing prepare to entertain you."

Before Xie Yan could speak, Fu Qing spoke first, "Master, it's raining outside, and he came back in the rain, let him change his clothes first."

Grandpa Fu seemed to be leaning on crutches, full of energy, "Then why don't you take me with you!"

Fu Qing led Xie Yan into the back room, unwrapped the new clothes that had just been wrapped inside and out, handed them to Xie Yan, took a set of clothes and went out.

Only then did Xie Yan realize that it was for herself. He was soaked in rain, and he didn't feel the cold at first, but now he suddenly felt a little unbearable, his ears turned red, and he said softly, "Thank you."

In fact, he still wanted to ask how much this suit cost, and he would pay it to the boss tomorrow. It is not easy to do a small business.

Fu Qing didn't give him a chance to speak, and asked an inexplicable question at the door, "How old is your birthday today?"

Xie Yan was stunned for a moment, he didn't want to understand how Fu Qing knew that today was his birthday, they were just strangers.

Fu Qing raised his eyebrows, even the scar, "Huh?"

Xie Yan looked in Fu Qing's direction, he was standing in front of the door, the light fell on his shoulders, even the shadow was extremely tall.Maybe it was too cold just now, but now the room is too warm, Xie Yan felt a long-lost relief, he was really tired today, he said: "20 years old, today is my 20th birthday."

Fu Qing nodded, said nothing more, turned and walked away.

Leaving Xie Yan alone in a daze for a long time, she changed her clothes, casually cut her hair, walked back to Grandpa Fu, and greeted him again.

The old man was very kind. He first asked him how he was and how he met Fu Qing.

Xie Yan is not very good at lying, and there is no need to lie. She told the whole story from meeting Fu Qing in the coffee shop to following him home today.

Grandpa Fu smiled, "Our Ah Qing, among other things, he has a very kind heart. The neighbors in the neighborhood know it and praise him every day."

Xie Yan looked up, restraining herself not to tell Grandpa Fu what she saw today.At worst, he will return the money tomorrow.

Grandpa Fu then asked: "How old is Xiao Xie this year? It sounds young."

Xie Yan is so old, and he has never faced such concern from an elder. He knew that the other party had good intentions, and he couldn't bear to be perfunctory. He answered every word seriously, "I'm twenty, not too young."

Grandpa Fu's tone seemed a little frustrated, "Our Ah Qing is 32, not young anymore."

Xie Yan: "..."

How did it turn to Fu Qing's age?

They chatted for half an hour, Fu Qing came in with a bowl of noodles, two dishes of stir-fried vegetables, one dish of duck miscellaneous, and a side dish, which filled the small table.

Grandpa Fu waved his hand, "I've eaten, and I'm tired. Let's go to the house to watch TV first. You two children can eat by yourself."

After finishing speaking, Grandpa Fu threw the crutch aside, walked straight across the yard, and walked into another room.

Xie Yan originally wanted to stand up and help him, but Grandpa Fu walked like flying.

Fu Qing pushed the only bowl of noodles on the table to Xie Yan. Xie Yan thanked him first and found two fried golden eggs inside.

Xie Yan realized slowly that this is longevity noodles for birthday.

He put down his chopsticks, raised his head, looked into Fu Qing's eyes, and said in a very serious tone, "Thank you."

Whether he likes his birthday or not, other people's kindness to him is always appreciated.He has never received any kindness since he was a child. Except for thank you, he seems to have no idea what to say or do.

Xie Yan thought while eating noodles, there is always something she can do for the other party.If Fu Qing wants to fight as the big brother, he can also play, one fight three will definitely be no problem.

Fu Qing sat opposite, he didn't eat, he turned his head to look out of the window, and occasionally turned back to take a look at Xie Yan.Sometimes when they happened to make eye contact, Fu Qing would nod to him.

Xie Yan ate with peace of mind.Although he didn't celebrate his birthday very much, in the few memories, this was also the most reassuring one.

After eating the noodles, Xie Yan consciously put away the bowls and chopsticks, but was held down by Fu Qing.

Fu Qing's eyes were amber, and looked very gentle under the light. He picked up the bowl and chopsticks, and said to Xie Yan: "You are a guest, go to sleep, it was raining today."

Xie Yan is very good at dealing with other people's malice towards him, but now there is nothing he can do about it, so he has to obediently walk to the room just like an obedient child.

"correct."

Xie Yan suddenly stopped when she heard the sound of clearing the dishes. It was Fu Qing who was talking. He paused and continued, "Today is 20-year-old Xiao Xie, happy birthday."

Even Xie Yan, who has a bad temper, a violent personality, and a natural insensitivity to soft things, feels that this sentence is too gentle.

It was as if they knew each other well before, and the person in front of them was really happy for his birth 20 years ago.

A word can soften a person's heart, and all the misfortunes of the day will disappear.

This experience is so novel.

Xie Yan's ears were red, and he lay on the bed in a daze, covering his eyes with his arms, thinking that he deserves to be a big brother, really amazing.

Then I said silently in my heart, "Come on at the age of 20."

After Xie Yan fell asleep, Grandpa Fu went to the kitchen and grinned at Fu Qing, "What, suddenly picked up a kid home? You have been single for 32 years, did you fall in love with him?"

Fu Qing knew very early on that she didn't like women, and told her frankly to her only family member, but after living for so many years, she couldn't find anyone she liked.That's why Grandpa Fu was very concerned about Fu Qing's major events in life. If he didn't know that Fu Qing wasn't the kind of character to be manipulated by others, he would have forced him to go on a blind date.

As soon as she saw Xie Yan, she wished she could settle down their lives for both of them.

Fu Qing shook his head and smiled indifferently, "You're overthinking. It's just a child, staying alone at the station. I saw it. It's not like letting people just stay outside for a night while it's raining."

Grandpa Fu closed his eyes, wondering if he had listened to his explanation, but he was still stubborn enough to go his own way, "I won't say much, old man, anyway, you know it in your heart."

Fu Qing calmly washed the dishes and chopsticks, made a phone call, and suddenly remembered the scene where Xie Yan was drenched in the rain with his head up, as if he was competing with someone.

It's like seeing a poor kitten, very unlucky, drenched in the rain, did not eat the food he likes, can only curl up and lick his fur, and it happens to be his birthday, let him alone It was too cruel.

However, this kitten has smooth fur, a charming appearance, and a different temperament. It looks fierce on the surface, but in fact it is silly. After a little temptation, it was brought home.

It is undeniable that this kitten is extra cute.

The author has something to say:

Xiao Xie: I have nothing to repay, only...

Brother Fu:?

Xiao Xie: Only fighting.You're welcome, I'm good at fighting.

Brother Fu: ...

However, the goose is a little Xie in his heart, but in the eyes of Brother Fu, he is just a kitten.

Tell me louder!Sweet or not!

Brother Fu is not a free eater (. Will explain later
