less expensive than me

There are two ways to go to the front yard.

One is to walk through the hall and pass through two doors, but the doors are closed all the year round and the door keys are kept by the guards, so this road is not feasible.

The second is the secret passage that only Zhuang Yu knows.The front yard and back yard of the Qingcao Welfare Home are separated by a wall, which is covered with tenaceae plants, and dense bushes and roses are planted at both ends.However, due to years of disrepair, there is a hole under the wall, which Zhuang Yu accidentally discovered when watering these plants before.

Zhuang Yu wanted to pass through the hole at the bottom, and climb out from the gap between the luxuriant bushes and roses.

Roses are plants that grow on vines and climb fences. The varieties planted in the orphanage are all double-petalled red. It is the flowering season at this time, and they are gorgeous and enchanting. However, under these beautiful appearances, their branches are full of sharp inverted prick.

In the kitchen, Zhuang Yu pushed the peanut bag to the corner, patted the dust off his body, and looked up at the clock hanging on the wall.

11:30, there is still half an hour, there is still plenty of time.

Zhuang Yu turned on the water pipe and took half a basin of water, scrubbed his cheeks clean, couldn't hold back the excitement in his eyes, hurried back to the dormitory, lifted the quilt, and found a low-quality plastic bag from underneath.Carefully unbutton the knot, inside is a neatly folded dress.These are the most beautiful and decent clothes that Zhuang Yu owns, and they were specially bought for him when the volunteer lady came over the year before last.

A white kitten with its tail up is printed on the pink short sleeves, with a striped tie as an accessory, and the white shorts were also washed clean by Shuang Yu.

Zhuang Yu put the clothes on his body very carefully, he was reluctant to wear them on weekdays, but Xia Dong told him to dress himself up cutely, so that the chances of being adopted would be higher.

Zhuang Yu's heart was pounding like a little rabbit ready to go.Before walking out of the door of the dormitory, Zhuang Yu passed a mirror. He had already walked a few steps, but he deliberately turned back and tugged at the hem of his clothes in front of the mirror.

The size of this dress was a little big when I tried it on two years ago, but it is a little short now.

However, due to the lack of adequate food supply for a long time, the slightly malnourished Shoyu did not grow much, even though he was two years older, and was much shorter than healthy children of the same age.

His thin cheeks lined with a pointed chin, thin lips, and the tip of his nose was slightly raised.Zhuang Yu raised the corners of his mouth in front of the mirror, showing a bright smile, with dimples appearing.

So stupid, so stupid.

The corners of Zhuang Yu's mouth sank and he rubbed his face, feeling that he was very funny, like a clown in a cartoon that made people laugh.Zhuang Yu changed a few more small movements, his eyelids flickered, and the two black jewel-like eyeballs made people feel pity.

When the time was almost up, Zhuang Yu was still dissatisfied, but he could only hunched over and walked cautiously towards the grass.He didn't dare to go there too early, if he was discovered by the nurse before the guests, he would be taken back and locked in a small black room.

But if the guests are present, then the dean and the nurses will pretend to be good people and will not make things difficult for him. Zhuang Yu feels cold towards their hypocrisy.

Within a few minutes, Zhuang Yu was squatting beside the fence, the bushes were lush, and roses were clinging to it, exuding a refreshing fragrance.But at this time, Zhuang Yu had no time to estimate these things, he listened to the sound with his ears sideways, the car rubbed against the ground, there were already some fast guests coming here.

Not yet time.

1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes...

Zhuang Yu still didn't hear the voice of his friend in the front yard.

Usually when the guests get off the bus, the dean will organize all the obedient and good children to stand in a long line, and then shout out slogans such as "Thank you for your concern, welcome to visit".But today I don't know what happened, and there has been no movement for a long time.

Zhuang Yu didn't dare to ignore all unplanned factors, he decided to wait a little longer.

"Zhuang Yu, what are you doing!!"

Wang Juan planned to go to the kitchen to check the progress of peeling peanuts, but she couldn't find Zhuang Yu, so she asked some children and was directed to the wall.Then she saw that little bastard Zhuang Yu put on new clothes, Wang Juan rolled her eyes and understood that he wanted to sneak to the front yard.

"Little bastard, you have eaten your ambition, come here!"

Wang Juan was so furious that Zhuang Yu dared to disobey her order, so she casually brought a wooden stick from one side and walked towards Zhuang Yu aggressively.

In the orphanage, these children are orphans without father or mother, and some of them are even sick. They are as weak as chickens raised in captivity. They are slaughtered and have no right to refute.

The nurses also like to shout at them and instruct them to do rough work, and they don't complain, and they are grateful for a little bit of kindness to them.Most of these children were like this, but Wang Juan found that Zhuang Yu was a fox cub, he looked cute and thoughtful, and the facts were as she expected.

"Give you another chance, I'll count to five..."

When Zhuang Yu heard Wang Juan's voice, he was really startled. He clenched his fists and bit his lips in fear.

"Five, four..." Wang Juan stared at Zhuang Yu like a wolf, counting down, "What are you doing..."

Zhuang Yu didn't wait for her to finish counting, and plunged into the bushes. The branches, leaves and thorns scratched his tender skin. Zhuang Yu used his arms to protect his cheeks, and groped for the gap that could pass people.

"I can get out!"

Zhuang Yu cheered himself up from the bottom of his heart, but he was in a hurry, but he still couldn't find the hole. Wang Juan behind her was also anxious, and rushed over to poke Zhuang Yu with a wooden stick, but the overgrown bushes blocked her view. Even if he stretched out his hand to grab it, he couldn't reach Zhuang Yu, instead he was scratched with bloodstains.

"Come out, where else do you want to go! I can catch you wherever you go." Wang Juan was angry and anxious, threatening verbally.

Kuo Tai who came today was a big shot, the dean held several meetings for them, and repeatedly warned them not to make mistakes today, if Zhuang Yu made trouble, she would not want to get paid.

Zhuang Yu turned a deaf ear to her voice, the sweat on his forehead slid down his cheeks, and continued to knelt and groped on the ground.

at last.

"I found it!" Zhuang Yu's eyes lit up instantly, and he squeezed his whole body into the hole without thinking about his own safety.

However, the other side of the hole was also covered by rose branches and leaves. Zhuang Yu held his breath and fiddled with the shrub branches in front of him, but he didn't have time to patiently avoid the rose thorns.

"pain……"

There was a stabbing pain in the arm, and the skin on the cheek was also pierced.After climbing a few steps, Zhuang Yu's eyes appeared fragments of sunlight, and he saw a hand in a trance.

This hand was slender and well-defined, like a beautiful work of art, with a slight chill.

like…

Like a redeemer.

"Please help me." Zhuang Yu held the hand without hesitation, and then crawled out from the rose bushes with his strength.

Holding that hand tightly, Zhuang Yu slightly bent his knees, gasping for breath, but before he stood up happily, his whole body was kicked to the ground.

"Master, please be careful."

A muscular man in a suit suddenly appeared, protecting the owner of those hands behind his back.

Zhuang Yu's head hit the ground and rolled several times, the whole world was turned upside down.He narrowed his eyes slightly, and vaguely saw the burly man pull out a gun.

Not toy plastic guns.

This gun was wrapped in a cold steel luster, and the bullets fired could easily penetrate his body, and then exploded into a pool of blood.

"I didn't do it on purpose, cough." Zhuang Yu suppressed the blood in his throat, limp on the ground, choked with fear, and said: "I, I just want to crawl out."

Even if Zhuang Yu's mind is more delicate than children of the same age, he is still an eight-year-old child. He has never seen such a scene, and only knows that he almost died.

Killed by that gun.

"Go down."

There was a cold voice of command, and the bodyguard in the suit immediately retracted his gun and walked away after hearing the words, and the huge sense of oppression lingering on Zhuang Yu's head dissipated a little.

But his shoulder was really hurting. If the kick just now was on his chest, he would definitely break a bone or internal organs bleed. Kneeling on the ground, Zhuang Yu rubbed his shoulder and raised his head, gratefully looking at The one who saved him.

Is a good-looking brother.

His black eyes are clear and bottomless, his nose bridge is straight, and the skin on his neck is as fine as porcelain, and he looks like he is pampered.The clothes he was wearing were crisp black uniforms. Although they were not overly embellished, the decent tailoring set off his tall stature, making him as dignified as a prince in a fairy tale book.

"come over."

Fu Shiji squatted halfway, and hooked his fingers towards Chaozhuang Yu, which was like calling a puppy.

"Hmm..." Zhuang Yu raised a smile that he had trained for a long time, and moved towards Fu Shiji despite the pain in his body.

There was a gap of about five steps between them, Zhuang Yu didn't know what bewitched him, instead of standing up, he knelt down and crawled towards Fu Shiji.

"I, I'm really not a bad boy."

Zhuang Yu knelt beside him, explaining urgently in a delicate voice, afraid that this handsome man of his elder brother's age would throw himself to the vicious nurse again.

Fu Shiji didn't seem to hear his voice, but just raised Zhuang Yu's chin with his slightly bent index finger.

Zhuang Yu's face was forced to lift up, sweat and tears were still hanging on his temples, his left cheek was pierced by a rose barb, and the blood that flowed out had dried up.He didn't know what he looked like, but he could see the loathing for him from that brother's eyes.

Sensitively aware of this, Zhuang Yu wanted to stay away, but the fingers on his chin were even harder.

"Don't move." Fu Shiji raised his eyes slightly, and said calmly, he lowered his head and carefully looked at this timid kitten, which was dirty but immature.

After hearing the order of "don't move", Zhuang Yu tried his best to control his subconsciously trembling body, and even wanted to stop his beating heart and blood rushing in his veins.

Fu Shiji did not know how long he had observed, until Zhuang Yu's calf became stiff and he lost consciousness for a short time, then he suddenly opened his mouth and asked, "What's your name?"

Zhuang Yu looked into Fu Shiji's eyes, and replied obediently: "Zhuang Yu, brother, my name is Zhuang Yu."
