Tang Ran originally thought that Yuan Che would pretend to be ruthless and reply him "Then lie down" as usual, and then walked away.

In the end, Yuan Che just urged with a little disgust, "Hurry up."

Tang Ran stretched out his left hand shamelessly: "Pull me."

Yuan Che looked down at him for a few seconds, and seemed to offer his right hand reluctantly.

Tang Ran shook it with a smile, and stood up with strength.

Yuan Che's fingertips were a little cold, but his palm was warm.

Seeing Tang Ran stand up, Yuan Che let go of his hand, turned around and walked towards the direction where the mountain bike was parked.

Tang Ran is very principled: "Hey, you can't drink and drive."

Yuan Che did as he wished this time: "Then you run."

Tang Ran pressed Yuan Che's handlebar to prevent him from leaving: "I don't know where to go even if I'm running."

"why?"

Tang Ran said, "I ran away from home."

Yuan Che: "..."

What to do, I want to hit someone.

Tang Ran hurriedly declared: "It's different from yours. I didn't leave home verbally... You see, there is no burden to really run away from home, just leave as soon as you say it."

Yuan Che looked at Tang Ran's running equipment—a mountain bike, a mobile phone, a set of clothes, all gone.

Tang Ran asked: "Are you in a hurry to go back?"

Yuan Che was naturally not in a hurry.So the two walked slowly along the river bank.

During the Chinese New Year, Tang Ran's aunt also had a holiday and went back to her hometown to visit relatives and friends. Tang Ran and Tang Minghua were the only ones left at home.

Without Aunt Zhou to mediate in the middle, the Spring Festival of the father and son was also full of sparks. Today, if they didn't deal with a word, they got up again.

Tang Minghua pointed at Tang Ran's nose and cursed a lot, but the rest of Tang Ran didn't take it too seriously, just saying "useless trash", which completely pissed him off.

"But I'm not a vegetarian either," Tang Ran said, "I immediately called him an old pervert."

"..." Yuan Che asked, "So you were kicked out?"

"That can't be done," Tang Ran said, "I slammed the door and came out before he chased me away."

Yuan Che: "Is there any difference?"

"Of course," Tang Ran said seriously, "It looks more imposing this way."

"..."

The two walked in silence for a while, and Tang Ran suddenly asked, "Do you think I'm... a waste?"

Yuan Che looked up at him.

Tang Ran didn't wait for him to answer, she laughed at herself first, and said to herself, "Is it true that in their eyes, poor studies are useless?"

Yuan Che turned his face to look at him, and said calmly: "What do you mean is useless?"

"It's just..." Tang Ran thought for a long time but couldn't come up with a suitable definition for this heart-pounding word, and finally said, "In my father's eyes, I may be muddy now and can't support the wall. No hope for that."

But in his eyes, what is hope?Tang Ran thought for a while, and added, "Then I don't want to be his copy either."

Yuan Che listened quietly, and asked after a while, "Then what do you want to do in the future?"

Tang Ran: "Just what I said last time, open an Internet cafe and be the boss."

Yuan Che: "..."

Tang Ran was indeed talking nonsense.They are now full of confusion about what the future will look like. The simple question of "what do you want" can be easily answered by a child of a certain age, but at this age, it seems that only "don't know" is left.

Yuan Che said: "Then the owner of the Internet cafe downstairs in my house should be able to chat with you."

The second elder brother is extremely talkative. In the morning, he chatted with Yuan Che in the gap between his homework and said to Yuan Che with emotion: "It's better for you to be at your age. You don't have to think about anything else, just focus on studying, unlike us. .”

Yuan Che said, "What's the matter with you?"

The second brother shook his head and said: "You will know later, being an adult is very boring."

The second brother said: "I was stupid when I just graduated, and I didn't know what I wanted to do, so I just saw what other people were doing. I followed the crowd and submitted my resume to find a job. I finally found one. I was so happy that I followed a two hundred and five Like."

The second brother could talk happily, and under his eager gaze, Yuan Che had no choice but to ask, "What job?"

The second brother patted his chest: "Go back to the courtyard and inquire about it. I used to be an excellent people's security guard!"

Yuan Che: "... Oh." No need to ask, no wonder the owners of the community know him so well.

The second brother is still feeling: "I didn't know what I wanted to do until I was 25, and I only figured it out after I was 25."

After finishing speaking, he stared at Yuan Che helplessly, as if he was passing a word while teasing him.

Yuan Che had no choice but to ask again: "...what do you want to do?"

Second brother: "I want to open an Internet cafe!"

"..."

Yuan Che now feels that Tang Ran is actually not bad.

At least I figured it out before.

Tang Ran was also very interested in the second brother after hearing this: "Then let's go, let's go to the Internet cafe."

Yuan Che refused in his heart: "I just went there last night, and I stayed for a long time today."

In fact, strictly speaking, it is today, after all, it was already past twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.

Tang Ran immediately felt like crying: "Brother, I'm so cold, I have no clothes to wear and nowhere to go..."

Yuan Che had a headache: "Shut up!"

Tang Ran closed her mouth, her eyes were full of sorrow, and she was about to say something.

After counting for 10 minutes, the two sat in the second brother's small Internet cafe.

The second brother thought that Yuan Che had introduced him to the business, so he immediately smiled into a gratified egg, and warmly greeted Tang Ran.

Tang Ran talked a lot, but when he met someone he knew well, he was even less familiar. After greeting him, he asked, "Boss, why do you always call you 'Second Brother'? What's the origin of this name?"

The second brother smiled and said, "I don't have any background, I just picked it up by myself—generally speaking, things called big brother are not good things."

Tang Ran: "..."

He choked back a prepared opening sentence - pointing at Yuan Che and saying "This is my elder brother" - abruptly.

In the following time, Yuan Che fully witnessed Tang Ran's ability to multitask. While manipulating game characters to break through levels and fight monsters, he chatted with his second brother and even sent some bubble-wrapped nonsense to his brother when no one was paying attention. Long brother short.

Tang Ran said to the second brother: "The business of Internet cafes is usually good, right?"

The second brother said: "It depends on the situation. It's not stable. Summer vacation is the best, but it won't work near the end of the semester. At most, I can earn some cash back."

Tang Ran: "Are you mainly pointing at students to make money?"

Second brother: "Almost, now from elementary school to high school, which children don't use computers to do their homework, if it catches up with the peak period, everyone in this courtyard will have to queue up."

Tang Ran imagined that scene and found it a bit scary.

How can this make it so embarrassing to play games inside?

The second brother's chatterbox has been opened, and Tang Ran can talk on his own without talking to him: "Sometimes, I can tell my family to check the information, and I come in to play games by myself. I'm sure Don’t cover it up, but resolutely drive them out—is it okay to sell dog meat? You should learn and play, why do you do this?”

Tang Ran responded solemnly: "You are right."

Privately typing on the keyboard to blow bubbles to Yuan Che: "By the way, Brother Yuan, let me copy your winter vacation homework another day."

……

The two of them didn't play for too long. After quitting the game, Tang Ran got up first and walked to the counter to pay.

The second brother looked at the time and said, "A total of forty."

Tang Ran nodded calmly, fiddled with the phone for a while, then put it back calmly, pointed to ChiselExpert who was parked outside the door and said, "Get this car first."

Yuan Che: "..."

The cigarette in the second brother's hand fell silently.

After a while, the second brother picked up the cigarette with a complicated expression, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, if you don't bring any money today, you can go on credit first, don't worry."

Yuan Che couldn't bear to push people aside: "Get out and wait."

No shame.

After Yuan Che paid the bill and came out, Tang Ran asked him: "Do you have a hotel here? Express chain private ones are fine. I'll stay for one night first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow."

Yuan Che said: "Turn left at that intersection, and there is a family at the next intersection."

Tang Ran nodded, and asked again: "Can you give me a ride?"

Yuan Che: "?"

Tang Ran said, "My phone is out of battery."

The one at the intersection was said to be a hotel, but it was actually a small private hotel with a lax registration, and the room card was given after paying the rent.

Yuan Che paid the room fee for him and was about to leave. Tang Ran was very sorry, so he would drag him to the room for a sit down, drink a glass of water and play for a while or something.

"The water has to boil for a while, drink this first." Tang Ran took a can of Coke from the glass cabinet and opened the tab for Yuan Che.

The single room is quite small, and there is no TV or computer in it.Tang Ran was about to take a shower first, and in case Yuan Che couldn't wait to leave, he suggested, "If you're bored, you can do your homework first."

Yuan Che took off his schoolbag and threw it aside: "You are quite good at making arrangements."

Tang Ran was a bit of a clean freak. After running outside for a long time, it was uncomfortable to enter the house without taking a shower.I ran so fast today that I didn't bring a change of clothes, so I could only make do with it.

Tang Ran went into the small bathroom in the bathroom, and the sound of the water stopped after a while, and he shouted at Yuan Che in it.

Yuan Che: "What are you doing?"

Tang Ran: "I forgot to take the bath towel..."
