light adaptation

After returning home in the evening, Ning Zhan and Bi Qiannian chatted with each other for a long time, all of which were not nutritious topics, and he was depressed when he learned that most of his part-time money was used to buy gifts for friends.

Ning Zhanmei wanted to hear Bi Qiannian's voice, so he dialed the phone.

"Hello?" Bi Qiannian said.

"Yeah." Ning Zhanmei said lightly, and laughed again, "Then do I have any presents for my birthday?"

"When is your birthday?" Bi Qiannian lay down on the mat without turning on the light, the window was gloomy, as if it was going to rain, and the moon could not be seen.

"It's January next year, it's still very early." Ning Zhanmei replied, "It doesn't matter when, can I have a gift?"

"...Yes."

Ning Zhanmei smiled and was in a good mood.Originally, there were always some regrets and even jealousy that he met Bi Qiannian several years later than the childish Xu Yun, but when he heard his voice, he felt happy very easily, and he couldn't pretend to be jealous, he was so happy.

"Bi Qiannian."

"Ok?"

"like you."

"Um……"

"Hmm, what, don't you like me?" Ning Zhanmei teased him, "It's okay, we're not in a hurry, it's fine if I chase you more."

Bi Qiannian held the phone, his face was warm, the voice on the other end of the phone was like a peaceful boat on a stormy night.

After saying goodnight, Bi Qiannian heard Ning Zhanmei's love again, hung up the phone, and rolled around on the bed.

The sound of the door lock twisting, Bi Qian went home.

Bi Qiannian got up and went to the living room, and asked Bi Qian if he wanted something to eat, but Bi Qian said no.

She put the bag away, with a cold expression on her face, Bi Qiannian thought it was because she was too tired today, so she poured her a glass of warm water.

"Qian Nian, you are a sophomore at the beginning of school." Bi Qian said suddenly, looking at him with a pair of round and black eyes, Bi Qiannian's heart skipped a beat.

"Well, what happened?"

"Your father's son is about a year younger than you." Bi Qian didn't drink any water.

"Why bring this up?" Bi Qiannian frowned.

"Someone is looking for a relationship to send someone to the experimental class of the first year of high school," Bi Qian sneered, "The son of the deputy mayor is called Xue Yan."

Bi Qiannian didn't respond, he was waiting for Bi Qian's reaction.

Bi Qian looked at him with wide red eyes, "It's hard for him to work so hard to put his son in a good class. What about you? Why doesn't he care about you?"

Bi Qiannian listened to Bi Qian's heart-wrenching words, but his heart was as cold as if it had been frozen. There were two scratches on his heart, but there was no bleeding.

"Mom," he replied softly, "I don't have a father."

Bi Qian slapped him across the face.

"You don't have a father?" Bi Qian asked him amusedly, "When you were in elementary school, didn't he still wait for you in the corner every day? Didn't he still block you outside the interest class? He still wants to attend your graduation ceremony, right? "

Bi Qiannian lowered his eyes, the left side of his face was hot, Bi Qian hadn't hit him for a long time, the last time Xue Chengkai came to school secretly when he was graduating from junior high school, he didn't see it, but Bi Qian ran into him.When he came back at night, he was just like today, indifferent and furious.

"Mom," he repeated, raising his eyes to look at Bi Qian with the same indifference, "I don't have a father."

He felt a little bored, he couldn't feel the pain anymore, he just felt tired, as expected, Bi Qian scolded the whore surnamed Chen and the scum surnamed Xue for a long time, and now he added a child born of two people Useless rag son.

Bi Qiannian took it for granted, and even started to lose his mind, guessing whether the gentle and dignified mother learned these dirty words because of the third-rate street people who chewed the tongues of both mother and son.

Sure enough, Bi Qian had had enough of scolding, seeing the blood-red slap marks on his face, and as she had repeated countless times in the past, she hugged him and cried.Bi Qiannian hugged her back, but what she was thinking in her heart was that for so many years, when Bi Qian cried, tears always came out of her left eye first.

"Mom, don't cry." He comforted in a gentle voice, not caring about his face.

"Thousands of thoughts...thousands of thoughts..." Bi Qian kept calling him.

"I am, I am."

Bi Qian suddenly grabbed Bi Qiannian's shoulders, her eyes turned red.

"Qian Nian, I have seen it, Xue Yan is not as good-looking as you."

Bi Qiannian wanted to laugh, so he said yes.

"Qian Nian," Bi Qian obviously didn't finish, "Your grades are better than his - Shuiyun University is beyond his reach in this lifetime."

But an untimely thought popped up in Bi Qiannian's mind. He didn't want to go to Shuiyun University. These days, he kept thinking that he wanted to go to Zhiqiong City. Zhiqiong University was not a small difficulty for him, but he worked hard Maybe it is possible?He wants to try it.

He easily gave up his ambition of Shuiyun University, and Ning Zhanmei gave him the courage to go further afield.He hasn't been out of Shuiyun City yet, because of unknown timidity, but he wants to try this time, he wants to grab the hand that Ning Zhanmei offered, and accompany him back to his hometown, and go to the north to have a look.

Bi Qiannian tried to speak, "Mom, I want to go to Zhiqiong University."

"Zhiqiong University?" Bi Qian was stunned for a moment, apparently not expecting Bi Qiannian to give such an answer, "That's good too...better than Shuiyun University."

She reacted quickly again, "Why do you suddenly want to go to Zhiqiong University? Isn't it good to stay here?"

"I feel like I can go if I work hard." Bi Qiannian answered her, inexplicably uneasy.

"No!" Bi Qian immediately denied it, "Why did you go to such a far place?"

"Isn't Shuiyun University not good? Didn't you agree to go to Shuiyun University to study Chinese in junior high school?" Bi Qian eagerly defended, like a child whose partner has rejected an appointment, trying to change Bi Qiannian's mind, "Zhiqiong is so far away. -"

She stopped talking suddenly, she was flustered, and her eyes were scrutinizing, "Do you want to leave?" She continued, "Have you been on the phone with others these nights? Are you in a relationship?"

"I do not have--"

Snapped.

Bi Qian couldn't help but pulled out his hand and slapped him again.

Instead of crying, she felt deeply betrayed.

Just like the daytime more than ten years ago, she was told that Xue Chengkai had married a new lover. She was exposed to the sun and became a corpse sweating in vain.But now, the fetus in his womb actually planned to betray him, how dare he?

She was the one who brought him up, she was the one who worked so hard to get to No. [-] Middle School in the city, and went to extra-curricular cram schools to earn money day and night, it was her!It's her!How could Xue Chengkai have the face?Does he still think of him as a father?Why?I even lost my mother because of him!Mother!She remembered the bloated corpse.

How could Bi Qiannian abandon her.

Bi Qian's face was covered with an indestructible indifference, like the most impartial and selfless judge in the world, like the God who held a scale and sentenced Bi Qiannian to life imprisonment, but he didn't look like a mother.

But there is one last layer of warm pretense to be done.

"You are still young, the second year of high school is very important, so cut off the contact."

For the first time, Bi Qian didn't calm down under Bi Qiannian's soft coaxing, she left, leaving Bi Qiannian standing alone in the living room.

The warm water has cooled down.
