Tang Zichao couldn't stop laughing.

He had never seen Li Qingchen deceive himself so thoroughly.

"Why is he so easy to get tricked?" Tang Zichao and Sheng Shi complained, "He also said that Xiaotian is stupid. In my opinion, he is the one with the lowest IQ in this house."

Li Xiaotian at least has self-knowledge.

"Li Qingchen is not stupid." Sheng Shi sat on the armchair in the bedroom, looked at Tang Zichao and smiled, and blinked to help Li Qingchen say something.Li Qingchen is a top student at the Judge Business School, and his IQ is low, "He just...uh, he will temporarily lose his reason and ability to distinguish when he encounters things that he cares too much about."

Sheng Shi's wording was very awkward, and he tried his best to defend Li Qingchen.

Tang Zichao understood, it meant that Li Qingchen lost his mind at a critical time.

No, it's still stupid.

Tang Zichao yawned when he saw Sheng Shi, and didn't continue to talk about Li Qingchen's IQ.

The sky is big and the earth is big, Ah Shi is the biggest, and Li Qingchen is the oldest.

"Sleepy?"

"Ah."

Tang Zichao kissed Shengshi's forehead: "Shall I help you scrub and sleep?"

Sheng Shi nodded.

He has a bit of a cleanliness obsession, and no matter how tired he is every day, he has to take a shower before going to bed, but now his arms and knees can't get wet, and there are many places he can't wipe with one hand, so he can only trouble Tang Zichao.

Tang Zichao removed his splint and plaster, and carefully avoided the wound to untie Sheng Shi's trousers.

Even though Tang Zichao asked Tang Zichao to take off his pants after meeting him many times and unlocking more than a dozen poses, Sheng Shi was still so ashamed that his face burned slightly.

"Is it cold? Should the air conditioner be turned up?" Tang Zichao asked thoughtfully.

"That's fine." Sheng Shi whispered, clamping his bare legs.

Tang Zichao looked at Sheng Shi and blushed, and it was rare that he didn't tease him. He put the dirty trousers he took off in front of the laundry basket and took out his pocket.

Sheng Shi usually doesn't put things in his pockets, he usually can't take out anything, just in case, but he accidentally took out a small wooden ball.

"Huh? What is this?" Tang Zichao put the small wooden ball in front of his eyes for a closer look. Under the bright light of the bedroom, the splicing marks on the surface of the wooden ball were clearly visible.

"It's a Luban lock." Sheng Shicai remembered that he forgot to put the lock ball back to its original place, took it from Tang Zichao's hand, and said softly, "It was my mother's 30th birthday. Uncle asked Master to make it for her to relieve her boredom. She used to take it out to play when she was bored."

Tang Zichao's heart moved slightly.

He has always been thinking in a lively way. He heard from Sheng Shi that Sheng Tao gave it to Mrs. Sheng. It was hard not to wonder if there might be something hidden in it. He said calmly, "It sounds difficult to understand, will my wife understand it?"

"I don't know how to do it. I tried many times and I still can't unlock it. I only saw my mother and uncle opened it." Sheng Shi smiled, recalled a past event, and said nostalgicly: "There is a small space in the middle of the lock ball. When I was a child, there was a small space. Once my uncle made my mother angry, and my mother ignored him, so he quietly put a note of apology in the ball, and my mother forgave him after seeing it. Later..."

Sheng Shi paused before saying: "Later, when grandpa passed away, mother was sad and uncle and father quarreled every day. After a few disputes with uncle, they put it away."

After listening to Tang Zichao, he intuited that there was a [-]% chance that his association would come true.

I just don't know how the ball came about.

Tang Zichao asked casually: "Where did you find such a meaningful thing?"

"In..." Sheng Shi's eyes dimmed a little, his eyelashes lowered, his left hand fingered the gap on the lock ball, he pursed his lips and said, "It fell off the shelf in the master bedroom where Dad couldn't live anymore. "

His voice trembled when he said the word "Dad".

Tang Zichao glanced at the injury on his body, how could he care about locking the ball, bent down distressedly, and hugged Sheng Shi's shoulder: "I'm sorry, it's my fault."

It hurts you and quarrels with him again.

"It has nothing to do with you, don't tell me I'm sorry." Sheng Shi muffled, "It's obviously my own fault. I figured it out when I was in the hospital. Although he has always acted violently, in fact, he never took the initiative whom the earth wants to hurt.”

Sheng Shi lowered his head lower and lower, "Maybe he just wanted to scare you, but I was so anxious that I took it seriously and went to pick up his crutches regardless of the severity. Did it scare you?"

Instead of "you", he used "you".

"Then you are not angry with our father?"

Sheng Shi gave a soft "hmm".

He has no face to be angry.

"Have you sent him a message? Has he lost his temper?" Sheng Shi bit the bullet and asked Tang Zichao, "I don't know how to apologize properly."

Tang Zichao looked at him and guessed what he was thinking, and rubbed Shengshi's cheek to comfort him: "It's over. He asked me to take good care of you. Don't worry, Dad won't care."

In order to strengthen his argument, Tang Zichao pointed to the table and said: "Look, he even gave you a present on your birthday, and you hadn't reconciled at that time. The feelings of children towards their parents are different from those of parents towards their children." Yes. He doesn't say it, but his thoughts are obvious. He just wants to make you happy."

Sheng Shi followed Tang Zichao's fingers and saw several gifts on the table.

It was placed at home by Gu Tianyuan, Gu Qianmu, Sheng Tao and Li Xiaotian on his birthday, and it was originally placed at the entrance where he could see it at a glance.When he returned home on his birthday, Tang Zichao was drunk and he had no time to watch, and then the two of them entered the set one after the other. The presents were left unopened, and Tang Zichao brought them to the bedroom last night.

"Do you want to take it apart and have a look?" Tang Zichao asked.

Sheng Shi hesitated and shook his head.

"...Let's watch it next time." Sheng Shi said, "We'll watch it after my father and I apologize face to face."

He didn't want to open the gift Gu Tianyuan gave him with a guilty mind.

"Alright." Tang Zichao raised the corners of his lips, and suddenly picked up Sheng Shi, who was so frightened that Sheng Shi hurriedly wrapped his arms around his neck, "Then I'll take my wife to take a shower~"

It's an embarrassing thing to say about taking a shower.

Sheng Shi knew that Tang Zichao was making himself happy, or bit him on the shoulder in "revenge".

Taking a sip so lightly, Tang Zichao didn't even feel the slightest pain.

He washed Shengshi himself before washing himself.

Tang Zi took this bath for a long time, sorting out his thoughts while washing.

After he finished washing, Sheng Shi had already fallen asleep clutching the Luban lock.

Tang Zichao could tell that Sheng Shi wanted to sleep with him.

Sheng Shi didn't lie flat, his head leaned against the head of the bed, only a corner was covered by the blanket.

He smiled softly, carefully supported Sheng Shi to flatten his body, and pulled the blanket to his chest.

But she didn't lie on the edge of Shengshi and hug him to sleep.

Instead, he picked out the Luban lock from between Shengshi's fingers bit by bit, and exited the bedroom lightly.

Tang Zichao thought for a long time, and finally decided to find out if there was anything inside.

Even if there is only a [-]% chance, he can't let this "timed|bomb|bomb" stay in Shengshi's hands.

Tang Zichao, wearing soft slippers, went straight to the stairs.

The guest room was upstairs, and he was afraid that someone would go to the study halfway to look for him, so he went to the living room to dismantle it. The wooden stairs in the house were loud, so he could hear if anyone came down in time.

Unexpectedly, before the stairs were finished, there was an angry shout from the living room: "What's the reminder, I'm not sleepy!"

Tang Zichao: ...?

Tang Zichao groped the wall to turn on the chandelier, and raised his eyebrows after seeing the person clearly: "Li Qingchen? What are you doing here when you're not sleeping?"

"Why are you?" Li Qingchen was very embarrassed, "What kind of makeup do you wear at night? I almost thought it was a ghost if you put on such white makeup."

Who do you think, Gu Qianmu?Tang Zichao hehe.I didn't explain that I didn't wear makeup, I just removed the black powder before taking a shower.

Of course Li Qingchen would not tell Tang Zichao that he hid in the living room because he didn't want to share a bed with Gu Qianmu.

It is estimated that he and Tang Zichao had a natural conflict. Even if Tang Zichao is no longer his rival in love, he still dislikes Tang Zichao.

I feel that this film king is dirty from body to heart, not because of his background or appearance, he is dirty even if he is painted white, it is the kind of black belly that is completely stained with ink.

Maybe black with yellow in it.

Normal people hide lubricants all over the house?

Li Qingchen glanced here and there, trying to change the subject. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the Kong Ming lock in Tang Zichao's hand, and said "clearly": "Did you steal Xiaoshi's things and were you found out? Or were you kicked out by him?"

"Steal?" Tang Zichao wanted to talk to him about what "married couple's property" is, but he rolled his tongue, and without bothering him with the words, he stretched Kong Mingsuo forward: "You know this? Then you know how to solve it? "

He has never unlocked the Kong Ming lock, and he is not sure if he can open it before Shengshi wakes up.

"Of course." Li Qingchen smiled, with a proud face of "I'll teach you if you ask me".

Was Li Qingchen fooled by Li Xiaotian's praise?Actually expecting to beg him?Tang Zichao thought.

Li Qingchen had tricked him a lot, and it was hard to tell the truth from what came out of his mouth. Moreover, A Shi said that this Luban lock was custom-made, and the probability that Li Qingchen would solve it was extremely small.

Tang Zichao bypassed Li Qingchen and sat on the sofa, he said indifferently: "Whatever you want, I can't sleep, just play with a toy."

As he said that, he untied the Luban lock on his own.

"Who are you fooling?" Li Qingchen folded his hands on his chest and leaned on the back of the sofa and said coolly, "There is a hidden buckle in this lock, so there must be something hidden."

Tang Zi paused with his fingers and frowned at him.

"I guessed right." Li Qingchen gloated, "Then you got kicked out because you offended Xiaoshi? He punished you to untie it before allowing you to go back to sleep, right?"

Tang Zichao: ...

He could tell that Li Qingchen had really seen this lock before, and he was still making up excuses to trick him into helping him. Should it be said that Li Qingchen deserved to be a god-level brain with a hole in his head? He helped him figure out the reason.

So, Tang Zichao took advantage of the trend and showed his actor-level acting skills. With shame and remorse in his eyes, he said with a wry smile: "...you guessed it all. We are also a family, can you help me? I made A Shi very angry."

"Who is with your family!" Li Qingchen spat in disgust, "I have nothing to do with Gu Qianmu!"

Tang Zichao was speechless.

Ever since you screwed yourself to sleep with him, you'll never have nothing to do with him again, okay?

"I didn't say it had anything to do with Gu Qianmu." Tang Zichao coughed lightly, and said without conscience, "Look, you are A Shi's senior, and even his best friend, you don't want to see him angry, do you? Is everything going well at home?"

I don't know which key word touched Li Qingchen's "soft" heart, but Tang Zichao smoothed out his frizzy hair with ease.

"You can help me too." Li Qingchen snorted, "What's the benefit? If there's no benefit, I won't do it."

He was afraid that Tang Zichao would turn around and leave, so he added quickly: "The difficulty of this lock is hell level, you can figure it out later, without my help, you can unlock it by yourself until next year."

so tough?

Tang Zichao thought for a few seconds, and pondered, "I'll teach you a way to avoid being taken advantage of by Gu Qianmu 100%, okay?"

Li Qingchen's eyes lit up.

"make a deal!"

He snatched the Luban lock from Tang Zichao's hand and twirled it twice with his fingertips to confirm that it was the one he had seen before.

"You're lucky." Li Qingchen tutted, "Master Wei only made two of these locks, one from a small family and the other from my family. My mother heard that he made a new lock, and spent a lot of favors to get it. It took me two years to unravel the remake of it."

"Two years?" Sure enough, you have a problem with your IQ.

"That's Master Wei! The top woodworking master, how fast do you want?" Li Qingchen said angrily, "I was less than ten years old when I untied it!"

"...You are amazing, can you hurry up?"

Li Qingchen also wanted to hurry up, he was going to be sleepy, so without further ado, he grabbed the ball and wanted to dismantle it.

"Wait!" Tang Zichao suddenly called to stop.

"what happened again?!"

"I'll record a video." Tang Zichao said, took out his phone and turned on the recording button.

He didn't think Li Qingchen would kindly help him recover.It is difficult to unlock the Luban lock and it is even more difficult to restore it. If there is nothing in it, he has to put it back in its place.Record a video to follow along.

Li Qingchen confirmed again and again that it could be unlocked, moved his fingers, and started to unlock.

The process is indeed complicated.

I saw Li Qingchen picking the most inconspicuous gap, pointing at a circular surface on the sphere, and digging another gap. Repeated this several times, the piece of wood popped out to a height visible to the naked eye, and was pried out by Li Qingchen. half a centimeter.

He was extremely patient, and Tang Zichao was even more dazzled by the way he operated.

Three minutes later, the first piece of wood was placed on the table by Li Qingchen.

Then the second piece, the third piece...

Tang Zichao secretly gasped, feeling extremely glad that he bumped into Li Qingchen.

Anyone who knows how to solve it is so complicated. As a person who has never been in contact with Luban locks, he is afraid that if he really wants to solve it next year, he will have no other choice but to break it open.

A Shi's mother's relic, he smashed it for an illusory speculation, how could he get his hands on it.

After another 10 minutes, with a "click", the last wooden parts fell apart in Li Qingchen's hands, and a black chip the size of half a thumb fell off.

Tang Zichao's heart sank.

There really is something.

"What is this?" Li Qingchen picked up the chip and looked at it, "SD card? How poor is your family, have you dug out this old antique?"

"...other cards can't be put in." Tang Zichao made up his mind casually, "Okay, give it to me, it contains the password for me to enter the door."

Li Qingchen backed away vigilantly, holding the chip and hanging it on the teapot, his voice was drawn out, "Pay with one hand and deliver with one hand, Tang Zichao, you haven't said your solution yet."

"what?"

Li Qingchen is not stupid.

"Hurry up. If you don't satisfy me, we don't need to sleep tonight." Li Qingchen rubbed his eyes sleepily, "Don't try to rob, if you don't, I'll keep it for you; Throw it in the water."

Tang Zichao: ...

What the hell do you think about taking hostages in a police movie?

"I won't grab it." Tang Zichao said sadly, quickly thinking about how to make up for it if he couldn't convince Li Qingchen with the method he thought of.He tentatively said, "You promise me when I'm done talking?"

"Heh, go out and inquire about it. I, Li Qingchen, say that there is no difference between one and the other, and there is no deception."

"Okay, trust you once." Tang Zichao narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "The way to make Gu Qianmu not take advantage of you is..."

Li Qingchen couldn't help leaning over, listening attentively.

"...take advantage of him first."

Li Qingchen:! ! !

Fuck, is this the way you came up with? !

Tang Zichao has a gambling mentality.

This kind of bad idea can be seen through by others at a glance, but Li Qingchen...

"Wonderful!" Li Qingchen slapped the table excitedly and laughed wildly, and put the chip into Tang Zichao's hand, "It's a pleasant cooperation, I'll try it right away."

After all, he climbed upstairs and went back to his room.

Tang Zichao: ...If it were Li Qingchen, he might not be able to use his brain well, so he would probably think it was wonderful.

He won the bet.

Tang Zi lowered his head and looked at the small chip in his hand, as if it weighed a thousand ounces.

He saved the dismantling video in the phone, packed up all the Luban lock parts, and then took them and the chip back to the second floor.

This SD card is a smartphone memory card that was popular more than ten years ago.Nowadays, mobile phones have long been replaced with built-in memory cards, and most people do not have readers at home.

But he is still playing handheld games, and some handheld memory card readers have multiple slots to support reading SD cards.

Tang Zichao glanced quietly at the bedroom to confirm that Sheng Shi was still awake, closed the door again, and went into the study to search for the card reader.

The card reader is in the drawer.

Tang Zichao only felt that the reading speed of the computer was unprecedentedly slow.

It seemed like a century before there was a "ding" sound from the speakers.

[The hardware has been loaded, double-click to open. 】

Double click.

In the memory of the sd card, there is a video lying alone.

Tang Zichao took a deep breath, trying his best not to think too much, not to be afraid, to stay calm and fully prepared mentally.

Only then started the video tremblingly.

What appeared on the screen was the most gentle and beautiful woman he had ever seen when he was young, Mrs. Sheng.

But different from what Tang Zichao remembered, in the video, she had a playful face that didn't fit her temperament at all.

"Brother, good morning."

"When you see this video, I should be gone."

"Yes, I know, I know. But I don't believe you would do such a thing."

"So, I'm going to take a gamble on myself that my brother is still the best brother in the world."

Madam Sheng smiled and tilted her head, making a very cute face.

"In case I lose the bet, you have done so much for me, and I will make up for your mistakes."

"I'm sorry, brother." Madam Sheng's smile did not change, but a tear flowed from her eyes, sliding down her softly curved cheeks to her chin, "I'm too selfish, I don't want to lose Tianyuan, and I don't want to lose you either."

"You are all my favorite people."

"There is also Ashi, and Hanhan."

"I don't want to lose anyone. I want you all to live. It would be great if I could go back to the past."

"Brother, promise me, take good care of A Shi for me."

"Let him live the life he wants. It doesn't matter whether he is successful or not. I just want him to live happily."

"If he's not happy, you have to coax him well, to make him happy, okay? It's best for A Shi to coax him. You can stroke his hair and pat his back, and he will be obedient and quiet."

"...Brother, I'm going to the airport."

In the video, Mrs. Sheng clasped her hands together and made her last wish reverently to the phone camera, "I hope I can come back and delete the video."

"If you can't come back, I hope my...death will make you wake up, so stop here."

"Let's go, wish me luck."

The progress bar went to the end, and the screen went black.

she knows……

She actually knew...

Tang Zichao froze in front of the computer, the shock in his heart could not be calmed down, and he did not move for a long time.

Behind him, the curtains of the study room were open, and a bolt of lightning suddenly pierced the night sky, and in an instant, it illuminated the outside as if it were day.

Immediately afterwards, there was a sudden thunder, and the momentum was huge, like the roar of an angry dragon.

The storm in the forecast poured down on the land unexpectedly.

The author has something to say: it is the first time to write such a purely gentle and kind character.Mrs. Sheng is the kind of person who best fits the term "Bai Yueguang" in my mind.

Even, the author named her Sheng Yueming, who named her a waste.
