don't try to escape

Lin Lin saw Lin Xiao on the morning of the 29th year. He thought Lin Xiao would not come back, so he felt strange when he went downstairs and saw someone sitting on the sofa.

When I got closer, I froze there.

Lin Xiao has lost a lot of weight, and her hair has been cut short. I don't know if she has dressed up carefully. She looks very energetic, like a model in a magazine, looking at Lin Lin with indifference.

Lin Lin opened his mouth several times, but didn't know what to say, so he nodded in embarrassment and got into the kitchen.

It's like the prey is panicked when it sees the hunter.

Zhang Ma was very happy, Lele was humming a song and making food, seeing Lin Lin sneaking in, she smiled even more happily.

"Xiaolin, have you seen Xiaomeng? If you want Mama Zhang to tell you, it's really not good to live alone. See how thin you have become. It's better to come back."

"kindness."

While scooping up the porridge, he thought of the female voice he heard in the corridor last time. It is estimated that Lin Xiao might not be willing to come back to live.

Holding a bowl of porridge but unwilling to go out, as long as he is in a place with Lin Xiao, he feels uncomfortable.

I don't know what expression and attitude I should use to treat Lin Xiao.

The kitchen is not small, but Mama Zhang has always been used to working in the kitchen by herself. With Lin Lin standing here, she just feels in the way.

"Breakfast is still hot on the table, let's eat together quickly. I said I would wake you up, but Xiaomeng said that it was rare for you to sleep so late, so I didn't call you."

Lin Lin's heart beat faster, even though it was just such a trivial matter, it still made him think about it for a long time.

In the end, Mama Zhang kicked her out of the kitchen. When she went out, she lowered her eyes, but couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at the living room.

I didn't see Lin Xiao, and I felt a bit lost, but I was also relieved, and sat down at the table and started eating.

"Da da da."

The dining table was very close to the stairs. Lin Xi was holding a small piece of fried dough sticks in his mouth. When he raised his eyes, he saw Lin Xiao walking down with a blanket in his hand.

Accidentally meeting Lin Xiao's gaze, Lin Xi blushed almost instantly, and picked up the bowl like a guilty conscience.

In the end, he forgot that it was the porridge that had just been made, and when he took a big mouthful into his mouth, tears came out of Lin Lin's eyes, and he tore the tissue in a panic before vomiting it all out.

But the tongue hurts uncomfortably. Although the injury on the top has already healed, but after all, the injury was serious before, and it has been very sensitive after recovery.

Ordinary people burn it once, and it may be relieved immediately, at most it is a little burning sensation.

But Lin Lin seemed to have hot water pouring on it all the time, with a painful expression on his face.

When he was suffering, he couldn't help making a "whimper" sound like a small animal. Lin Lin realized that Lin Xiao was still there, so he gritted his teeth and held back.

"Den."

It's a family medicine box.

Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, and when he realized who was taking it, his whole body tensed up, and he immediately stood up, "I'm fine."

Afraid of being caught, he wanted to leave quickly, but naturally he couldn't escape Lin Xiao's grasp.

Without any explanation, he grabbed Lin Lin and told him to sit in his seat, "Don't move."

He thought it would be a very strict order, but the voice turned out to be surprisingly gentle, and Lin Lin didn't move.

"Hands off."

Hesitantly took away the hand covering his mouth, and pulled a tissue to wipe off the things on his mouth.

"I... I'm really fine, it's just a little hot."

"Open your mouth."

The voice became a little louder, Lin Lin stopped talking, and opened his mouth obediently, the cold wind blowing in made him feel better.

Seeing Lin Xiao leaning over, the smell that belonged to Lin Xiao came to his nostrils instantly, making Lin Lin's heart beat faster, and his eyelids were always slightly drooping, afraid that Lin Xiao would see the panic in his eyes.

Because of Lin Lin's previous injuries, these tongue injuries were always kept at home. When he used the medicine himself, he didn't think it was a problem, but now when he faced Lin Xiao, he felt as if he was being tortured.

I don't know if it's because of the bad angle or the lighting problem, but Lin Xiao leaned very close to him, and even sprayed his breath on his lips, causing a burning sensation even stronger than that on his tongue.

And because the mouth was always open, it didn't take long to feel that the mouth was sore, but because Lin Xiao was holding a cotton swab in his mouth, Lin Xiao didn't dare to move, so he could only hold on.

In addition, the soft cotton swab was rubbing slowly on the tongue, like a kitten scratching gently, and it was Lin Lin's heart that was scratching.

"Ouch! What's going on!"

Lin Lin was very grateful to Zhang Ma for coming out of the kitchen at this time, and quickly retreated as if she was rescued. Seeing Lin Xiao's expression was not very good, but he couldn't care less.

He stood up and walked upstairs, regardless of what Zhang Ma and Lin Xiao said.

Until the New Year's Eve dinner, Lin Lin didn't meet Lin Xiao any more, not because he deliberately avoided Lin Xiao, but because Lin Xiao went out after showing up on the morning of the 29th.

I didn't come back until the afternoon of New Year's Eve. When I came back, my face was still sweating, and I didn't know what I was doing.

"Xiaomeng, come quickly! The dumplings are waiting for you to make the last few."

Lin Lin's mother greeted Lin Xiao who had just come in, Lin Xiao responded, put the bag on her back upstairs first, changed into a work-friendly clothes, and then came to make some dumplings.

This is one of the must-have programs for the New Year every year. Except that Lin Xiao didn't come back for the New Year last year, Lin Lin also packed a few instead of Lin Xiao.

Their side is not like the north, where they would put coins in the dumplings, called Caitou, it was purely a link that his mother forcibly made in order to create the atmosphere of the New Year.

As time goes by, it really becomes a habit. It seems that only when you make dumplings and eat them, is it considered Chinese New Year.

Looking at Lin Xiao's slender hands, he skillfully flipped the dumpling wrappers and added the meat stuffing. When kneading the dumplings, he kneaded them very delicately.

"Why is Xiaomeng so good at making dumplings? It's better than my brother's."

As long as there is Lin Xiao, Lin Lin knows that his mother always likes Lin Xiao more, and she is full of praise for Lin Xiao, but this time she is telling the truth.

The dumplings on the plate are similar to those sold outside, even the spacing between the folds is the same.

"Taught by others."

The simple four words turned into a stone on Lin Lin's heart. He felt tightness in his chest and shortness of breath, and his hands moved a little faster. After making 8 dumplings, he went into the kitchen to wash his hands.

Lin Jingtian came back just before the New Year's Eve dinner. Originally, according to the schedule arranged by the secretary, he had to spend this year on the plane.

But because he heard Lin Lin said that he was willing to let Lin Xiao come back, he rushed back to have dinner together and passed this year.

Seeing a large table of steaming rice, with his wife sitting next to him and his two sons sitting on the other, Lin Jingtian suddenly felt that all the hard work this year was worth it.

"Xiaolin, where do you plan to go to university?"

"The teacher said that if his grades are stable, he will have no problem going to a top university in Beijing."

The woman was very proud when she said this, and looked at her son happily.

Lin Jingtian was also very satisfied. Although he said that he didn't spend long time with the children, the two children really didn't bother him much.

Especially Lin Lin, who is the elder brother, is quiet and obedient, and his teachers from childhood to university are full of praise.

"Well, Dad will buy you a small house near the school, and you will be able to have a girlfriend after you go to college. Dad will definitely support you!"

"What are you talking about, when you were so young, you lived with your girlfriend right after college?"

"Then what's the matter, the young people now are not what we were then, but you are not allowed to have children if you are not married, and you still need to take necessary safety measures."

"You man!"

The woman was very dissatisfied that her husband brought the topic to this topic, and gave Lin Jingtian a slight look.

On the contrary, Lin Jingtian only thought about the fact that his two sons would find him two daughters-in-law when they come back, and when the time comes, there will be a house full of little granddaughters and grandsons, who will surround him and call him "Grandpa". He hopes that the two sons will get married soon. have a baby.

"Xiao Meng, you seem to have regressed a lot in this exam. The teacher even called me and said that you always fall asleep in class. What's going on?"

"Today's New Year's Eve, I'll put all of this in the future. Xiaomeng is so sensible, what else do you need to worry about? He understands in his heart."

Hearing the woman's persuasion, Lin Jingtian became angry, "It's you, you spoil him too much. How many times has the teacher told him that he is late for this semester and should have moved back long ago. No one cares what he looks like."

Seeing that Lin Jingtian was really going to preach, the woman hurried out to smooth things over, and finally calmed down.

It's just that during the meal, Lin Lin noticed that Lin Xiao's expression was not very good, and he didn't know if it was because of being lectured by his father.

After eating, Lin Jingtian took the driver upstairs to set up fireworks.

In previous years, Lin Lin was always the happiest at this time. He liked watching fireworks very much. He always felt that when the brilliance bloomed in an instant, all good wishes would come true one by one in the coming year.

Fireworks are not set off until midnight. Before that, we usually gather on the sofa and watch the countdown of TV programs.

This year was no exception, especially since Lin Xiao hadn't come back for a year, Lin Jingtian even asked Lin Xiao to sit on the sofa after setting up the fireworks.

First he asked about his homework, then about his school situation, and even about his habit of living alone, as if he wanted to condense all his concern for a year into this one night.

When Lin Xiao answered, Lin Lin pricked up his ears to listen.

Knowing that he was busy with the basketball club recently, he will go out of the province with the school team to play in the league next semester, that's why he lost so much weight.

Lin Lin greedily stared at Lin Xiao who was talking secretly, watching his face become more angular, gradually taking on the appearance of a man, as if even his brows and eyes were sharpened.

"Buzzing."

The mobile phone on the coffee table lit up, and the word "Fang Yu" also lit up.

In a panic, he picked up his phone and quickly fled to the garden.

"Hey?"

"It's pretty quick to answer the phone today!"

The constant heartiness came from the other end of the phone, Lin Lin sighed helplessly, Fang Yu, he always has nothing to do.

"what happened?"

"What's wrong?"

"You called me, what's wrong?"

"I'm so sad. I'm out of town celebrating the New Year alone. I called you to count down and you asked me what's wrong."

The sticky voice came through the phone, which made Lin Lin get goosebumps all over his body.

He had seen the message Fang Yu sent him before, saying that there would be a game soon after the Chinese New Year. The coach was afraid that he would indulge himself when he returned home during the Chinese New Year, so he was not allowed to come back and had to stay in the team.

"It's not a girl. How can there be two big men calling from the bottom?"

Saying that, and thinking about the few members of the team who probably won't be able to go home, Fang Yu became very pitiful.

"Crack!"

There was a sound behind him, Lin Xiao turned his head and seemed to see a black shadow flashing past, but when he looked carefully, he couldn't see anything.
