A Certain Someone

He thought that Sheng Wang had sneaked over to the rented house, but when he opened the door, he found that he was not there.There were a lot of things in the room, a blanket was spread on the bay window, and two pillows were stuffed.In the corner of the living room, there is a lazy sofa that can be used for high paraplegia.A basketball hoop was glued to the wall, and there were several unopened boxes piled up in the entrance.

Jiang Tian opened the courier. Inside were pairs of water cups, slippers, toothbrushes, towels, etc. Whether they had them or not, he bought them all, fully reflecting the richness and excitement of the young master.

He arranged these things one by one, and stuffed the drinks into the refrigerator.Then he took the empty cardboard box and threw it into the trash can downstairs, and called Sheng Wang.

"Where are people?" Jiang Tian asked.

Sheng Wang probably heard the horn of a small eDonkey passing by, with a triumphant smile in his voice: "Are you at the north gate of the school?"

Jiang Tian didn't want to admit that he had failed in arresting people, so he reluctantly responded after a while.

"I went over there to collect a few couriers and left."

"I can see it." Jiang Tian walked outside the gate of the community, while looking at the passing vehicles, while replacing the receiver with earphones, "Where are you now?"

There seemed to be someone around Shengwang, he asked others in a low voice, and sent Jiang Tian a location: "It's a little far away, do you want to come?"

"Well. Wait for me." Jiang Tian said.

A certain person usually has something and wants to show it off under the tip of his nose.Uncharacteristically this time, he spoke vaguely like squeezing toothpaste, and the method was comparable to fishing law enforcement, obviously to trick him into that place.Even if it doesn't show, his boyfriend can be replaced.

The location Sheng Wang sent was indeed a bit far away, in the outskirts of the university town.The subway has to transfer two lines, and it takes an hour to pass.Jiang Tian didn't know what gifts he had to prepare there.

After midnight today is January 1th, his birthday.Any fool knows what the young master is messing with.But in order to cooperate with the effect that the other party wanted to create a surprise, he had no choice but to lower his IQ condescendingly, pretending that he was a two hundred and five.

Kinda silly, but he'd love to.

Jiang Tian thought it would be a storefront or a restaurant, but when he got there, he found that it was a small building next to the university student dormitory.Sheng Wang gave him directions by voice: "Come in and go up to the second floor, the third room on the left, the one that says activity room."

Jiang Tian went up the stairs and saw a wooden sign hanging on the door of the room, which said: Please knock first when visiting, thank you for your cooperation.

He was a little puzzled, but raised his hand and knocked twice.

The door was opened from the inside, and the person he had been looking for all afternoon stood there, holding a small object in his hand as if offering a treasure, bending his eyes and saying to him: "Brother, let me show you a treasure."

The little thing in his hand cooperated extremely, and let out a soft cry.

That is a milk cat.

The moment he saw it, Jiang Tian was in a daze.Because it looks so similar to the one outside the phoenix tree, even the extra spots on the left ear are exactly the same.

For a few seconds, he almost thought that the kitten named "Tuan Zhang" came to touch him again after 12 years.

Sheng Wang sent the cat to Jiang Tian, ​​and said, "I asked, and I pet it. It's just that I'm a little young, so I can't use too much force."

Jiang Tian froze for a while, a bit at a loss for what to do.

After so many years, he still had a similar reaction when he saw such a kitten, without making any progress.It was still Sheng Wang who kicked his shoes lightly, and then he raised his hand to scratch the base of the milk cat's ears, and the little thing immediately narrowed his eyes and began to snort.

"You came all this way to pet the cat?" Jiang Tian asked in a low voice, his fingers stuck in the milk cat's soft fur, and his fingertips touching Sheng Wang.

"I came to get the adoption form. I just signed and filled out the form, and it belongs to us in name." Sheng Wang raised his chin behind him.

There are many cat litters and climbing frames in the activity room, and there are feeding and watering pots in the corner. Three older female cats are curled up in a well-lit place to bask in the sun, and there are several kittens with different patterns lying on their bellies. , it is not the same littermate at first glance.

There was a desk by the window, with a stack of forms sandwiched beside the desk, which was what Sheng Wang was referring to.

"This school provides rescue for stray cats, and the kittens born can be adopted. In fact, there are four or five cats with this pattern. The angle of your WeChat profile picture is too simple, and I'm not sure, so I asked for a few videos for Grandpa Ding Look, he said this one is the most similar, it is exactly the same as the head of the group." After finishing speaking, Sheng Wang put his arms around the kitten and looked at him: "Does it look like it?"

Jiang Tian nodded.

"I wanted to bring you here tomorrow, but the people from the Rescue Association are going back to celebrate the New Year. The uncle who helped take care of the cat didn't care about adoption. I was afraid that I would be preempted by others, so I signed today. The vice president went to copy the materials Yes, I'll wait for him here." Sheng Wang explained a long list.

Jiang Tian looked at him quietly, and asked after a while, "How long have you been looking for?"

Feral cats can be found everywhere, even in pet cat shops, but finding one with such similar patterns is like looking for a needle in a haystack.I don't know how much thought this person has spent.

However, Sheng Wang was running the train with his mouth full: "It's okay, I was paying attention to it before, and then I stole your avatar and went out to offer a reward. It's easy to find."

He was quiet for a few seconds after he finished speaking, and asked, "This birthday present...do you like it?"

"I like it." Jiang Tian said.

In fact, he has always been a nostalgic person, maybe because of his good memory, he always has some regrets.It's like he always remembers how the "head" grew up slowly, and how he gradually became old.But what impresses me the most is always the scene where it lay down in the nest and stopped breathing.

The old man whispered in his ear: "It's gone, don't look at it."

He squatted there stubbornly for a day.

The old man said: "Change the profile picture on your mobile phone, so you don't panic when you look at it?"

He has been using it for several years.

The old man also said that the cat will not come back when it is old.But……

Look, someone sent it back.

Outside the window, the sun hangs low on the branches in the distance, and the deep golden light slantly shines into the house, coating the boy holding the cat with a layer of fur.

Jiang Tian is not good at expressing, so he can't say anything nice.He glanced down at the kitten, and asked Sheng Wang, "Give it to me as a son?"

"Wait a minute." Sheng Wang put his arm around the cub, raised his tail and took a serious look at the cat's buttocks: "Yes, son."

Jiang Tian started with a deep smile.

"Laughing fart." Sheng Wang said, "Is this better than dumplings?"

"Well, it's quite a lot." Jiang Tian turned back: "Then whose surname is it after?"

Sheng Wang: "..."

The vice president went upstairs with the photocopied materials. Sheng Wang finally recovered from his brother's sullen words. He said, "I haven't taken my name yet. Think about it slowly. Anyway, I won't be able to take it back for the time being."

The vice president heard the last sentence, came over and handed the materials to Sheng Wang and said: "Yes, this cat is not yet a month old, so it needs to drink milk with the mother cat for a while. Let's wait for another month or so, and we will put The first few shots of vaccines have been given, and I will call you to come and pick them up, because they are too young to take them home and it will be difficult to feed them."

"Row."

"Then who should I contact then?" the vice president asked.

Sheng Wang wants to say that it is the same to contact anyone, anyway, they will come to pick them up together.As a result, the vice president had already clicked on the WeChat QR code and asked Jiang Tian to add him as a friend.

"That—" Sheng Wang subconsciously said.

The vice president looked over with a blank face: "What's wrong?"

In fact, it's nothing, he just became sensitive suddenly, thinking that adding two people's WeChat is not a good sign, as if none of them can come.But it seemed strange to say that, so he smiled and waved his hands and said, "Forget it, it's nothing."

Jiang Tian received Zhao Xi's voice on the subway on the return journey, and the other party asked him and Sheng Wang if they had time to go out for dinner tonight.

"We're leaving tomorrow for our air tickets, and we want to avoid the peak period of the last two days of the twelfth lunar month. Besides, it's not your birthday tomorrow, and the family and others will always be there for you, so Lin Zi and I won't occupy it," Zhao Xi said.

Jiang Tian was in a good mood because of the gift, so he replied: "Okay, let me invite you. Brother Chu just transferred the money for me."

Brother Chu in the remedial class is very good, thinking that the Chinese New Year is coming, he paid the first batch of courseware fees in advance, and sent Jiang Tian an extra big red envelope, hoping that he will spend more time in the next year and add some competitions to the courseware. Difficulty stuff.

Jiang Tian drew a part from the inside and passed it to Jiang Ou, saying: Ji Huanyu gave it.

But until they came out of the Wutongwai subway station, Jiang Ou didn't reply, which made him a little puzzled.

"What's wrong?" Sheng Wang noticed that he frowned and looked at his phone several times.

Jiang Tian said, "My mother didn't come back."

Jiang Ou never left his phone, and responded to Jiang Tian's messages very quickly.In the past, this kind of information was sent out, and an echo would be received within a few seconds.It's almost an hour today, which is a bit abnormal.

Sheng Wang paused.

Jiang Tian noticed the change in his face, and said, "The two of them were busy when I came out, so I probably didn't see it."

Sheng Wang nodded: "What are you busy with?"

Jiang Tian was silent for a few seconds: "Send an invitation."

It is said to be an invitation, but it is not so formal.Sheng Mingyang and Jiang Ou planned to treat Jiang Tian to dinner the day after his birthday.Before that, they had already greeted their friends, but they just contacted again today, showing politeness and respect.

The friends they invite are more complex, and some of them are really close friends. It is impossible to hang up a phone call in a few words, and they always have to chat for a while.Some of them have business contacts, and this kind of people should not be neglected, and it will take a lot of time to chat and laugh.

Back and forth, the whole afternoon was spent on it.

Jiang Ou has something on his mind these past few days, and his spirit has been sluggish, thinking that his son's birthday is going to be a little more energetic.It's a pity that God seemed to want to tease her deliberately. First, he was distracted while pouring water and burned his hands, and then he accidentally broke the necklace when changing clothes.In the afternoon, when I arranged for someone to send New Year gifts to several customers, they sent mixed messages.

In fact, these are all due to her absent-mindedness, but it always gives people the illusion that fleeting years are unfavorable.Sheng Mingyang took over the rest and asked her to rest on the sofa for a while.

Jiang Ou muttered, "I don't know if it's menopausal syndrome, but I'm very flustered."

Sheng Mingyang joked with her: "I've never seen menopause with such a good temper, I guess I haven't slept well these two days."

Jiang Ou hummed, leaned on the sofa and closed his eyes to rest.She sat up again after resting for a while, replied to a few friends' WeChat messages, and swiped through Moments.

After flipping through it a few times, I saw the status posted by Du Cheng in the afternoon.

He said: "Headaches derange people and make them feel like they can do anything.With a self-deprecating joke picture.

Jiang Ou frowned, and she swiped a few times, skipping the circle of friends.Then he said to Aunt Sun who was busy in the kitchen: "Sister Sun, do you have any more white fungus soup? I want to drink something hot, but I don't feel well."

"Yes, I'll serve it to you."

Aunt Sun scooped up a cup and brought it to her. When Jiang Ou reached out to pick it up, WeChat suddenly vibrated.

Her eyelids twitched inexplicably, and she lowered her eyes to look at the phone screen. Du Cheng's WeChat avatar flipped from the bottom to the top, and the content of the message was displayed next to it.

He said: I have been unable to sleep recently, and I always think about the past.Maybe if you do too many bad things, your death will not go smoothly.I know that it’s very disappointing to say these depressing words for the New Year’s Eve, but I don’t know if I can survive this year, so I simply apologize to you in one go because my mind is not clear and my impulses are disordered.

He said: I'm an asshole, not a thing, disgusting and dirty.Huanyu and I are sorry for you.

The bottom of the bowl was hot suddenly, Jiang Ou retracted his hand, and a cup full of white fungus soup fell on the marble. With a clang, the white porcelain shattered and splashed all over the floor.

Jiang Tian wanted to use this dinner to give Zhao Xi and Lin Beiting a good farewell.Zhao Xi also wanted to take advantage of the wine, break something up before leaving, and chat with the two younger brothers.

It's a pity that everything is not always so satisfactory. When things happen, they are often in a hurry, and they don't call 321 first.

Jiang Tian called Jiang Ou several times during the dinner, but no one answered after waiting for dozens of times.When he was wondering, Jiang Ou sent him a WeChat message back.

She said: Did Ji Huanyu really give the money these few years?

The dinner was not finished in the end, and it ended hastily.Jiang Ou didn't answer the phone all the time, Sheng Wang called Sheng Mingyang several times in a hurry, and the last one finally connected.

Sheng Mingyang said, "We are in the provincial hospital."
