What if my brother is sick

Wen Bei squeezed a little toothpaste into the toothbrush, brushed his leek-smelling teeth mechanically with a numb face, Jiang Yan stood behind him, rubbing his head on Wen Bei's shoulder.

Wen Bei said indifferently: "Don't touch me, I smell like leek all over."

Jiang Yan laughed, this was the first time his brother had an argument with him, "I also like the smell of leeks on your body."

"That's really hard for you." Wen Bei spit out the toothpaste, looked at Jiang Yan smiling, and couldn't help laughing himself.

He is so grown up, how could he be awkward with Jiang Yan, but seeing that Jiang Yan is not in a good mood, he deliberately pretended to tease him.

"Is there something you're unhappy about?" The room was dark after the lights were turned off, Wen Bei heard Jiang Yan's breathing close at hand, and asked softly.

Jiang Yan is very sensible. Among his peers, he is not as mature as a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy. No matter what he does, he handles everything on his own.

"...Why did you ask that suddenly?" Jiang Yan hugged Wen Bei's waist and rubbed against his chest, and paused for a moment.

"When will you be able to hide it from me?" Wen Bei said.

After all, as someone who grew up watching Jiang Yan, Wen Bei understands Jiang Yan's temperament best.

Jiang Yan smiled wryly on the face buried on Wen Bei's chest, indeed, he couldn't hide anything from Wen Bei's eyes.

"It's just a small matter." Jiang Yan said softly, "You have to get up early to go to the company tomorrow, right? I won't bother you, go to bed early." It seems that she doesn't want to say what's the matter.

Wen Bei sighed, sometimes he really hoped that Jiang Yan would not be so sensible, and could be like other people of the same age, and not take all his worries on himself, thinking about it, he said the same.

"I also hope that you can rely on me once in a while, instead of carrying everything by yourself." Wen Beidao, "No matter what status you look at me, I am someone worthy of your dependence."

Jiang Yan held Wen Bei's hand tightly.

"You're still young." Wen Bei sighed.

Jiang Yan seemed to be strangled by the throat, unable to speak.

That's right, I'm still young. In Wen Bei's eyes, I'm just a kid who hasn't grown up, so I should hide behind him and ignore everything.

In the end, Wen Bei... still only treats himself as a younger brother...

"The phone call tonight..." After the silence, Jiang Yan spoke, his voice seemed a little choked up, but Wen Bei listened carefully, and there was no more.

"It was my cousin who called, saying that my cousin was in a car accident and asked me to borrow money for surgery." It was funny to say, but after so many years of ignoring him, he almost forgot that he had a cousin.

Wen Bei knew Jiang Yan, his cousin. When Jiang Yan had an accident, his hospitalization procedures and the funeral of Jiang Yan's parents were all arranged by Jiang Yan, his cousin.

But this is under the premise of giving money.

You can do as much as you give, and after helping Jiang Yan's parents with the funeral, they immediately ran away and disappeared without a word about what Jiang Yan should do afterward.

Although he knew that this was human nature, Wen Bei still felt desolate from the bottom of his heart.

"How much do they want?" Wen Bei's face darkened in the dark.

"Fifty thousand." Jiang Yan said.

"Leave them alone." Wen Bei's face became darker and darker. An adult asked a high school student for [-] yuan? !Are you crazy? !

Jiang Yan shook her head lightly, "I gave it." He hung up the phone and gave it immediately.

"I owe them favors." Jiang Yan said.

This favor refers to helping his parents with the funeral at that time.

Wen Bei was speechless for a moment.

One is anger, why did Jiang Yan give it to them, and the other is surprise.

How could Jiang Yan take out so much money all at once?

Fifty thousand is not a small amount for a high school student with no income.

"My parents left some money." Jiang Yan knew what Wen Bei was thinking, and said, "If you give them, you won't owe anything."

Wen Bei understood that Jiang Yan's father's family property was indeed quite a lot during his lifetime.

He kissed Jiang Yan's forehead distressedly, "The next time something like this happens, just tell me, I'll take care of it for you, and you don't have to worry about it."

Jiang Yan: "..."

It took him a long time to reply: "Brother, I'm not a child anymore."

He really didn't want Wen Bei to just treat him as a child from beginning to end.

Wen Bei didn't know the meaning of his words, so he just listened like a baby, "Yes, yes, yes, it's not a child anymore, it's an older child." Wen Bei laughed.

Jiang Yan's heart became heavier and heavier.

Jiang Yan didn't sleep well at night and dreamed a lot, but the one that left the deepest impression in the end was the nightmare that he couldn't escape all the time.

He dreamed that he returned to that home again, the smoky home.

It was rare for his father to appear at home. Obviously, as usual, once his father came back, there would be constant quarrels at home.

Jiang Yan really likes his father coming back, as soon as he comes back, his mother's attention will be diverted from him, and he will feel better.

But this time their quarrel seemed to be more intense than usual, Jiang Yan could hear their voices downstairs clearly when she stayed in her room.

He looked at the room and couldn't help frowning, his schoolbag was still under it.

After hesitating again and again, he got up and planned to go down to get it.

The phone is inside, so don't take it.

The sound of the quarrel was getting closer and closer, and the content of their quarrel made Jiang Yan look dazed and stopped suddenly.

"Isn't it enough for you to bring Jiang Yan, a wild species, home?! Isn't that enough?!" The mother's face was full of tears, her delicate makeup had been spent, and she yelled at her father in a lung-piercing voice.

"What do you care about so much!" Father always said this when he quarreled.

"I don't care?! I don't care, just let you take the wild species outside one by one?!"

"Jiang Dong, I don't care how you fool around outside, but you want to bring back the bastard you fooled out of, I tell you, unless I die!"

"This is my home. I can bring whoever I want to bring back. I don't spend my money on what you eat and use. Where can I get any opinions?"

"You bring it? You bring one back and I'll kill the other!"

With a bang, the father slapped the mother's face with a slap.

Father dropped half of the cigarette in his mouth and slapped him again.

Mother's face became red and swollen at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"You are a stinky bitch who can't be born, what right do you have to be called here?!"

The mother covered her face, but laughed out loud, "Yes...I couldn't give birth...so how do you think Jiang Yan, a bastard, survived to this day?!" The mother smiled, but saw the standing On the stairs, Jiang Yan, who was in a trance, had a venomous look in his eyes.

He stepped forward and pulled Jiang Yan down, pulled him in front of his father, and said with a sneer: "If it wasn't for you, your good son, I would have killed him long ago, and it would be his turn to stay in this house to disgust me. ?!"

The father pulled Jiang Yan over, "Don't get involved with the child!"

"He's your child, not mine!" the mother screamed. "He's a disgusting bastard! He came to disgust me on purpose!"

"Shut up!" Father shouted, turning to Jiang Yan and saying, "Go back to your room first."

His self-esteem did not allow him to say this in front of his son.

Jiang Yan couldn't help laughing out loud.

Father frowned, "What are you laughing at, go back to your room quickly."

That's right.

Jiang Yan just laughed.

That's right.

No wonder his mother beat and kicked him since he was a child, and looked at him coldly.

To her, she was an existence that insulted her, always reminding her husband of the shame of fooling around outside.

Mother was right, his birth was really a real mistake for this family.

The cigarette butt thrown by the father ignited the cloth sofa and the curtain next to it.

Jiang Yan saw it, but didn't want to remind her.

Since he himself was a mistake, and this family was the source of the mistake, wouldn't it be better if it didn't exist.

It wasn't until the fire grew bigger and burned to the plug-in wires on the ground that there was a crackling sound of electric shocks that both father and mother realized that something was wrong.

Both of them had panicked looks on their faces, in stark contrast to Jiang Yan's calm face.

A fire extinguisher was found, but the fire was too large to be extinguished by the fire extinguisher during this period of time.

Jiang Yan took a few steps back, and retreated to the window, looking at the faces of the two people in front of him illuminated by the fire, what came to mind was Wen Bei's smile.

Breathing gradually became difficult, and there was a faint burning sensation in his arms. Amidst the panicked screams of his parents, he heard Wen Bei talking to himself in a trance.

But after a blast, he couldn't hear anything.

The screams of father and mother, as well as Wen Bei's voice, could not be heard.
