little uncle

Hurry up, transfer from a taxi to a bus, and from the bus to another two buses. It was already after nine o'clock when Cheng Yu returned home, far exceeding the usual time. There are a few days of overtime work, but I don't have to worry about having no reason to explain.Thinking of this, Cheng Yu breathed a sigh of relief, opened the door, and changed his shoes at the entrance.

Zhou Hongyuan had prepared meals for him. Nowadays, Zhou Hongyuan's cooking skills are getting better and better. Although he is not as good as his "professional mentor", he can cook a soup and a dish decently.

Zhou Hong was sitting at the side of the dining table doing his homework. He didn't turn his head when he heard the sound, but the familiar smell in the air made him relax a lot.

Cheng Yu looked at the familiar figure from the back under the warm light, and a warm current surged in his heart.He put the bag of pancakes given by Aunt Wei on the dining table, then stretched out his arms, embraced his little nephew from behind, and said casually, "There are a lot of things in the line today, I stayed in the office for a while class."

Zhou Hongyuan's body froze for a moment, his brows were tightly knit together, after hearing Cheng Yu's words, he turned around slowly, and said with a smile, "It's all right."Although Cheng Yu had a mobile phone, he didn't have a landline at home. In the past, it was too late to notify Zhou Hongyuan when he worked overtime, so the uncle and nephew made an agreement. eat.Because of this agreement, Cheng Yu didn't take it too seriously, and didn't notice anything wrong with Zhou Hongyuan, so he went to the kitchen to heat up the leftovers.

Zhou Hongyuan looked deeply at Cheng Yu's back, quickly looked Cheng Yu up and down, and finally, his eyes fell on the few mud spots on Cheng Yu's suit trousers.

His chest heaved violently, and the English reading in front of him suddenly became like a book, and he could no longer understand it.

He had detected Cheng Yu's changes early on, starting from that inexplicable weekend morning. Unknownness and hesitation, struggle and helplessness, like a white silk, wrapped him tightly, and he couldn't breathe, and he couldn't struggle.

He knew that his secret would be exposed sooner or later. This idea began when Aunt Wei was hesitating to speak when he left Zhou Town, it began with Li Yanhua's well-known indiscretion, and it began with the man who must have appeared that morning. ...But he never thought that this day would come so early, making him completely powerless to fight.

Zhou Hongyuan knew that he was not Zhou Yunwei's son, and this was a well-known secret in Zhou Town.It was just an absurd idea at the beginning, and I found out the clues from the jokes and contempt in the mouth of the neighbors, pieced together the truth from the mischievous children's pretentious leaks, and deepened the guessing from the deliberate temptation of the joker...

In countless nights where no one could spy on him, in countless days when there was no place to hide in pain, Li Yanhua used the most vicious words to curse him, and he also broke down and cried, asking himself if he was their child , but what he got was only more intensified curses and slanders, as well as that vicious and disgusting "bastard".

From that moment on, Zhou Hongyuan knew the truth. He didn't need to tell the whole story. He finally understood that from his own existence to his birth, from his birth to the present, he was never an existence worthy of blessing.

With just one look, he knew that Li Yanhua would never have married Zhou Yunwei if it wasn't for him. He also knew that he had nothing to do with the Zhou family.

Sometimes, under Zhou Yunwei's merciless slaps, he even felt that this cheap father knew the secret clearly, otherwise, how could he beat himself to pieces and make sinister smiles?He once thought that one day he would have the ability to completely leave this family, and ask a question, but he never thought that this would become an eternal secret.

He knew that Zhou Yunwei would die a long time ago, and he had cursed it countless times, but he never thought that this day would come so suddenly.

Zhou Yunwei died, Li Yanhua ran away, he lost everything, he was precarious, just overnight, fate gave him Cheng Yu.

Knowing that he has nothing to do with Cheng Yu, knowing that he shouldn't drag this young man in his early twenties into a boat of thieves, knowing that all his security and happiness are stolen and robbed, sooner or later he will have to Yes, but how could he open his mouth and say to the person who loves him the most in this world, "Leave me alone, I'm just a bastard."

If he can't do it, a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times, he will still be greedy for the warmth of Cheng Yu's body, obsessed with the warmth in Cheng Yu's eyes.

What can he do?All he could do was to tell Cheng Yu over and over again how much he cared about him and how much he couldn't do without him.

In the past, the gratitude and love that Zhou Hongyuan was most reluctant to say, during this time, he poured out his life like hell, true and false, false and true, coaxing Cheng Yu to enjoy himself every day.

But every night when people were quiet, whenever he was lying beside Cheng Yu waiting for Duke Zhou, he couldn't help asking himself repeatedly, is this really enough?Will this young uncle really be reluctant to part with himself, and is he really willing to keep himself?

After more than a year of getting along, Zhou Hongyuan understood Cheng Yu. He was kind and soft-hearted, even to the point of weakness. Most of the time, Cheng Yu would rather swallow the pain and grievances into himself than embarrass others.But it's nothing more than ordinary trivial matters. Zhou Hongyuan couldn't believe that Cheng Yu would still make concessions in the face of such "big right and wrong" matters; , will continue to treat himself well, and is willing to treat himself as a family member and stay in this home.

Zhou Hongyuan lowered his head, his eyes were tightly locked on rows of unclear English characters, waiting for the judgment of fate and - God's rebuke.

Only a few minutes passed, but to Zhou Hongyuan, it seemed as long as centuries. He was suffering, struggling, and his heart was hanging in the air. He even conceived in his mind countless times that Cheng Yu wanted to In what way is it easy and comfortable to tell all of this, and finally get rid of the burden?Or simply tear your face to scold yourself.

And Cheng Yu didn't know Zhou Hongyuan's inner drama at all, he just walked over with a plate, sat at the dining table, got himself a pancake, rolled the vegetables in the pancake, gobbled it up, and finished it in a few bites.After this day of tossing, he hardly ate anything, and he was really hungry.

Canglan knows etiquette, and Cheng Yu suddenly felt embarrassed when he was full. He smiled a few times, and said with a bit of embarrassment, "I'm really too busy today, I'm half dead from exhaustion..."

Cheng Yu babbled, and then said, "I saw pancakes on the road, they were quite delicious."

Zhou Hongyuan's heart jumped twice, like a drum beating. He didn't know why Cheng Yu had to explain to himself, or even lie to himself. Is there any point in all this?Do they have any room for maneuver other than blood relationship?

He suddenly felt that he couldn't read Cheng Yu anymore, and immediately afterward, his heart was indifferent, but he just nodded his head twice and didn't talk to him.

Cheng Yu tidied up the dishes awkwardly, got up and went to the kitchen to do the cleaning. Afraid of disturbing Zhou Hongyuan's study, he deliberately closed the door behind him.

Zhou Hongyuan couldn't bear it anymore, got up and walked to the entrance, picked up Cheng Yu's leather shoes, and stared at the soles of his shoes.

In an instant, Zhou Hongyuan trembled twice, his hands couldn't stop shaking, and he put the shoes back to their original places with great effort.

His little uncle, who worked all day, had mottled chicken feces printed on the soles of his shoes.

When Cheng Yu came out of the kitchen after washing the dishes and chopsticks, Zhou Hongyuan was already lying on the table doing homework, looking as usual, Cheng Yu wiped his hands with a towel, touched Zhou Hongyuan's head, and said, "Hongyuan is so good, Is there any question you don't know?"

Zhou Hongyuan has become a university bully now, and he is getting better and better in his studies. There are not many questions he doesn't know. After reading the answer analysis, he can almost understand it. Even if there is something that he can't understand, he will strive for the first place Discuss with Wu Siyuan and Zheng Mingkun the next morning.He didn't want to trouble Cheng Yu, he would rather be Cheng Yu's burden, he just wanted Cheng Yu to see his excellence, sensible, well-behaved, filial piety, and he didn't want him to spend any more effort on him.

Zhou Hongyuan knew that Cheng Yu had worked hard enough, and he didn't want to let his ignorance become the last straw that crushed their ridiculous family relationship at this juncture.

His coquettishness was carefully designed to be harmless to humans and animals, and his dependence was just right to be lovable. He wrote one formula after another for Cheng Yu, and designed one set of algorithms after another. Which ones are true and which ones are fake.

However, true feelings and lies are not important anymore, Zhou Hongyuan knew that he couldn't do without Cheng Yu.

So, Zhou Hongyuan shook his head, and said to Cheng Yu, "No, I can do it." Then, he leaned on Cheng Yu's body, and skillfully rubbed his head on Cheng Yu's chest.Cheng Yu obviously enjoyed it, smiled and rubbed his hair.Cheng Yu didn't delve into how Zhou Hongyuan's homework was done, but urged him, "Go to bed after finishing your homework", and then went to the bathroom on his own.

Zhou Hongyuan didn't understand why Cheng Yu still acted like he didn't know anything, shouldn't he be angry?Shouldn't he be shocked?Shouldn't he tell himself the truth, trying to bear it but couldn't bear it?Shouldn't he have kicked himself out from now on?

Cheng Yu didn't do anything, just asked himself if there were any questions he didn't understand as usual, and urged himself to take a break.

At this moment, Zhou Hongyuan thought a little amusingly, between the two of them, Cheng Yu was the best actor, and he pretended not to care about anything.He even thought about masochistically how long Cheng Yu could pretend, and then, it was inevitable to prepare a way out for himself.

But what is the future for a boy who is only 13 years old?He has only one god, and Cheng Yu has long been his last survivor.

At night, the two of them were still lying side by side. Although they were within arm's reach, they seemed to be separated by the entire Milky Way.They were thinking about each other, but no one said anything.
