take your surname

In the past 18 years, Qin Xu didn't feel much about the term New Year's Taste.

Life in the orphanage is too far away to remember. The New Year in the old house is either deserted or crowded, depending on Qin Wensong's mood. If he thinks there are too many people, there will be no guests in the old house.

And even if the family is busy, most of the time Qin Xu will be arranged by Qin Kai in the backyard. Qin Kai said that "people outside are dangerous", but in fact, he will know when Qin Xu grows up. Qin Kai is afraid that others will ask. Where did this kid come from?

Qin Xu couldn't understand why Qin Kai made up his mind to bring him home, but didn't have the courage to bring him out?He couldn't figure it out, but later he didn't bother to think about it, because it was unnecessary, the last trace of affection between him and Qin Kai was broken during the three years when Qin Yi went abroad.

However, at this time, on the way to the Lantian Welfare Institute, Qin Xu was thinking crazily how to add a little more flavor to Li Suhan's room, it was too deserted and the room was full of lifelessness.

Meng Xinhe called, "Are you there?"

"Come on, on the way, are you coming today?"

Meng Xinhe seemed to be still in the restaurant, and the background sound was a bit noisy, "There are a few tables of New Year's Eve dinner today, and I may not be able to make it."

"Ah? Suhan should want you to come."

"She won't want to see me."

"why?"

"...She was afraid that I would pay too much and delay me."

Qin Xu was stunned, he was a little puzzled, the relationship between him and Qin Yi was not so embarrassing, Qin Yi seemed to have said similar things and done similar things, and restrained himself to keep distance, but Qin Xu was disobedient, he In front of Qin Yi, his face was as thick as a city wall, and Qin Yi never had the heart to really push him away.

Qin Xu wanted to say: You don't have to be afraid.

But he didn't say it, he is not qualified to dictate the relationship between Meng Xinhe and Li Suhan, after all he has been absent for so many years.

"I'm coming soon, let's call if there is anything."

"it is good."

Carrying large and small bags of presents, Qin Xu brushed his face at the door, and walked directly in the direction of Li Suhan's house. A few children were chasing him on the road. When he saw Qin Xu, he stopped and tilted his head to look at the stranger.

Qin Xu knocked on the door, and Li Suhan responded weakly from inside. Qin Xu walked in, but didn't feel any heating. He glanced at the air conditioners and heaters, and they were all turned off.

Although Haishi is located in the south, the damp and cold air in winter can be fatal. The heater he kept in the air conditioner in the car has all dissipated now, and he couldn't help shivering. Seeing him coming in, Li Suhan quickly reached out to turn on the heater, Qin Xu went up to help her.

"I brought you some things, you choose and see if you like it?"

Li Suhan lowered his eyes, his eyelashes cast a faint shadow, "I've made you worry."

"It's nothing, Suhan, don't be polite to me."

Li Suhan raised his head and smiled reluctantly. Qin Xu took out a royal blue short down jacket from the shopping bag and showed it to Li Suhan, "How about this one? I don't know your size or preferences, so I just ask you I asked a female classmate of mine to help you choose, and she said that blue is popular this year."

"Really? It looks good."

Qin Xu moved forward to send it off, "Try?"

Li Suhan looked a little embarrassed, but she still took off the padded jacket with great effort, and took the new clothes in Qin Xu's hands. She seemed to have exhausted all her strength just to take off and change a coat.

The fit is a good fit, but the bright royal blue makes Li Suhan too pale, as white as a piece of paper with no content, Qin Xu sighed in his heart, Meng Xinhe is right, if a person has no desire to survive, he can really do anything useless.

"There is also this album, you can take a look if you have time, the pictures inside are quite complete." Qin Xu took the album out of the paper bag, this time Li Suhan's eyes brightened, she thanked repeatedly, and then took it with both hands.

"Xinhe said you have a lot of taboos, so I specially asked my cooking aunt to make these for you, try it?"

Li Suhan saw the lunch boxes covered half the table, and didn't look up for a long time, "Brother Seventeen, you don't need to do this..."

"Don't be burdened, I'm not here to make up for anything, how much does a meal cost a piece of clothing? You don't remember my family's situation? My adoptive parents are very rich, so don't take these little things to heart. Just think of me as doing good deeds and accumulating virtue."

"Okay." Li Suhan was willing to move his chopsticks.

She tasted a few mouthfuls, held up the chopsticks a little hesitantly, glanced at Qin Xu secretly, and Qin Xu asked her: "What's wrong?"

"I'm full." Fearing that Qin Xu would be unhappy, she added, "The food tastes good, but I eat very little now, and I'll feel uncomfortable if I eat too much."

Qin Xu didn't force it, and stepped forward to help her put away the lunch box, "It's okay, it's nothing."

Li Suhan lay on the pillow for a while, and suddenly said: "Brother Shiqi, are you in a hurry to go home now? Can I trouble you with something?"

"Tell me." Qin Xu said hastily.

"I want to take a look at the place where Brother Xinhe works."

"But you can—"

"I'm afraid I won't have a chance in the future."

Qin Xu was at a loss for words, and it took him a long time to wake up like a dream and took out his mobile phone and called the driver. Qin Xu took the folding wheelchair in the corner of the room and helped Li Suhan to sit on it.Driving all the way to the restaurant where Meng Xinhe worked, there were not many pedestrians on the road, only the noise at the entrance of the restaurant. The driver parked the car on the side of the road, and Qin Xu pointed in the direction of the restaurant, "That's the seafood."

Just as he was talking, he saw a familiar figure walking out with a plastic bag in both hands. Meng Xinhe was still dressed very thinly, which was very similar to Li Suhan. They didn't seem to be very afraid of the cold. On the other hand, Qin Xu was supervised by Qin Yi every day. Put on the inner three layers and the outer three layers.

"It's hard work." Li Suhan murmured, staring at Meng Xinhe motionlessly.

"Shall I call him over?"

Li Suhan shook his head, "No, I just want to see him... He has spent so much time for me all these years, and all the money he earned was used to treat my illness. The money for chemotherapy and medicine is like a bottomless pit. As much as the hospital took away. Later, when my illness became incurable, Brother Xinhe told me not to give up, saying that he would help me raise money, but I drove him away, and I told him that if he appeared again In front of my eyes, I immediately die in front of him..."

"why?"

"He's only nineteen, he still has a lot of time, every minute and every second is wasted with me."

"But he is willing."

"That's because the two of us have lived together for so many years. He regarded me as his family. He saved me for himself. If I'm gone, he will lose his only relative in this world," Li Suhan turned around, He smiled miserably at Qin Xu: "But I really don't have much time left. Instead of letting him collapse on that day, it's better to let him get used to living without me and not living for me now."

"Besides, family members should take the place of family members, and the person beside him should not be me. I often think, what kind of people will match him with a person as good as Brother Xinhe in the future, but no matter who , I have to give up my seat before others can walk in."

"But he likes you, you can tell from his eyes."

"That's because he hasn't met anyone he really likes, so he takes me so seriously. I'm just his family."

"Family can be lovers, anyway, you are not related by blood." Qin Xu thought of Qin Yi, and quickly argued.

Meng Xinhe went back to the restaurant, and Li Suhan slowly sat back in her seat. Her voice was a little soft, but Qin Xu could hear clearly: "But... isn't that too selfish? I have already taken his unreserved care, Do you want to deprive him of the opportunity to like others? If I tell him that I like him, then he will definitely give up his happiness for the rest of his life in order to take care of me. I don't want to do this."

Qin Xu's brain buzzed, and he fell into a sudden short-circuit and bewildered. He heard himself say: "No, he likes you too. How can you give up the happiness of the rest of your life?"

"Because he is afraid that I will be sad, Brother Seventeen, you may not understand what it means to be dependent on each other, that is the only theme of life for me and Brother Xinhe these years."

After she finished speaking, she began to cough violently. Qin Xu hurriedly handed over a few tissues. Li Suhan took them and covered her mouth with a cough, and finally stopped. From Qin Xu's perspective, she could see that there was Blood.

"Suhan, let me take you to the private hospital I mentioned yesterday, okay?"

Li Suhan waved his hand and said: "No, I'll just go back and lie down for a while, and you have to go back to have a New Year's Eve dinner with your family, don't delay it because of me, and uncle the driver, don't delay your return home because of me."

Qin Xu couldn't resist her, so he had to ask the driver to drive the car back to the Lantian Welfare Institute. As soon as he entered the house, Qin Xu turned on the heater, but he couldn't turn it on. It took him a long time to find out that the socket was broken, so Qin Xu had to go to the guard room to find.

Li Suhan was about to close her eyes on the bed when she suddenly heard her mobile phone ringing. She didn’t have a mobile phone. The source of the ringtone must be Brother Shiqi’s. She couldn’t answer other people’s calls indiscriminately. Less than a minute later, he called again in a hurry.

...Is there something urgent?

Li Suhan sat up with difficulty, saw the mobile phone at the foot of the bed, and finally stretched her arms to get it. She slid the call button a little strangely, and awkwardly connected the phone.

A male voice with a very low voice came out of the receiver, "Xiao Xu, why don't you go home?"

The name of the contact person is only an A, but the tone is so close, it should be the family of Seventeenth Brother. Li Suhan has not asked Seventeenth Brother's current name, only vaguely received a vague "Xiao Xu" from the receiver, and said: "Hi, I'm Xiao Xu's friend. Xiao Xu went out to get something, and I'll call you back later."

The other party was silent for a few seconds, and just when Li Suhan thought he had said something wrong and was about to apologize, the man said again: "Okay."

When the phone was hung up, Li Suhan held the phone in a daze, not knowing what to do, Qin Xu just walked in and complained: "It was hard to find an empty socket, how did the conditions of Lantian become so bad now, at least it was the same back then. The best children's welfare home in Haishi."

Li Suhan didn't have the energy to speak, so she could only smile, but she remembered the phone call just now, "Brother Seventeen, your phone rang just now. It rang twice, and I answered it for you."

"Who called?"

"A?"

The corner of Qin Xu's mouth curled up, "It's okay, I'll help you finish here and go home."

"Thank you."

After he had re-checked all of Li Suhan's electrical equipment and put away the presents he brought, he clapped his hands and decided to leave.

Li Suhan was exhausted and had already taken a nap for a while, and when she woke up her complexion was even worse, but she still tried to smile at Qin Xu, "Brother Seventeen, Happy New Year, thank you."

"Happy New Year." Qin Xu took his coat and was about to leave. Before he left, he suddenly remembered and asked, "Why have you never asked me my current name?"

"The name is just a code name. In my heart, you are Brother Seventeen, the boy who liked to sit under the banyan tree and read."

Qin Xu smiled, "Okay, then I'm leaving, you have a good rest."

"Ah."

When Li Suhan lay down, her brows seemed to be tightly knit together, but when she looked at Qin Xu, she became very relaxed again. Qin Xu thought it was his eyes that were dazzled, so he closed the door and walked towards the door.

The driver was waiting outside, probably in a hurry, so Qin Xu quickened his pace.The Blue Sky Welfare Institute is close to the airport, and there are many people rushing home on the eve of the New Year's Eve, so the road is a bit congested. Qin Xu originally wanted to call Qin Yi, but he wanted to give Qin Yi a surprise.

He took out the small packing box in his pocket, opened it and looked at it.

It is a tie clip with a simple and restrained appearance. When Qin Xu was picking out a gift for Li Suhan in the morning, he saw this tie clip from the corner of his eye. The suit matched well, so Qin Xu bought it without hesitation.

Qin Yi should like it.

Maybe I can ask for another kiss, as deep as last time, thinking of this Qin Xu makes my face a little hot, such Qin Yi is brutal and domineering, he must have the upper hand when his lips and teeth are intertwined, and his hands and feet are trapped by him and cannot move , It's so different from usual, but it's a little more sexy.

Qin Xu opened the window a little bit to dissipate the unreasonable heat. He thought, Qin Yi must like it. He even carefully treasures a broken letter, let alone an expensive gift?

But he suddenly thought of Li Suhan's words——

"Isn't that too selfish? I have taken his unreserved concern, so should I take away his chance to like others?"

Can this sentence be used on Qin Yi?Qin Yi also cared about him unreservedly and treated him as a treasure, but why didn't he agree to fall in love with him?

Qin Xu was puzzled, but he refused to consider the possibility of the latter sentence.

No, Qin Yi will never like others again.

The driver cursed in front of him, saying how long this traffic will last. Qin Xubai picked up his mobile phone boredly, and accidentally saw a new message in the message box, which belonged to Meng Xinhe, and he quickly opened it.

——Suhan suddenly had a convulsion all over her body, and the dean had already sent someone to take her to the hospital.

Qin Xu stared blankly for a few seconds, then hurriedly pushed open the car door and ran out. The driver called him from behind, and he turned around and said, "Uncle Huang, please tell my uncle, I have something urgent, so tell him not to leave." worry about me."
