Raising a younger brother is not easy

"

After a while, the door creaked open, and Mo Cheng stood barefoot at the door, waiting for Herod to signal. Herod was already sitting in the room, beckoning Cheng Cheng to come to him.

Mo Cheng closed the door very politely, and walked over unhurriedly. Herod pulled Cheng Cheng to the side of the bed and sat down, "Where are the slippers? It's easy to get sick with bare feet like this."

"I know, it's just that I just woke up and got out of bed in the wrong direction, so I forgot to wear it." Mo Cheng is really unlovable in this regard, and the word "acting like a baby" has never been in his dictionary. Showing an embarrassed look, Mo Cheng just said something like this, but Herod looked back and thought about it, he raised a younger brother, not a younger sister, how could a little boy act like a baby, and he never did this.

"Take you to wash." Herod led Chengcheng into the bathroom, Mocheng sat on the edge of the bathtub, a shallow layer of hot water was put in the bathtub, when Herod reached out his hand to touch his feet, Mocheng The subconscious reflex shrank back, "I can do it myself." He kept his composure very well, but he was frightened in his heart just now.

"It's okay, soaking your feet can help you sleep better." Herod grabbed Mo Cheng's feet and rubbed them. His feet were very cold. It might be because he didn't wear shoes. He rubbed them twice before he warmed up.

Mo Cheng looked down at the way Herod squatted down and stretched his hands into the bathtub to help him wash his feet. This brother was very good-looking, which was rare for Mo Cheng. In the past, there was a rumor among the girls about handsome seniors. , I occasionally meet them, but I don’t think they look good at all. Some of them have dyed hair and fancy clothes. Looking at the facial features, they are unremarkable, and some are very masculine, but they are too rough. Maybe when playing He would be more handsome, but usually looking at him, Mo Cheng felt that he was really in contrast to him, and looked at those people too inferior.

But Herod Bai was different, he was tall and had good-looking facial features, he felt like a male model in a magazine, and he could wear simple clothes very well.

Mocheng stared at Herod for a while, watching Herod's arm move up and down, couldn't help stretching out his hand to pinch, to see if his muscles were hard and strong, "What are you doing?" The little action feels a little funny.

Looking up, Mo Cheng showed a big smile, two small canine teeth were clearly exposed. I have seen Mo Cheng for so many days, but I have never seen this smile. He can laugh, but the smile is very gentle Very plain, it was the first time I saw such a childish smile.

"Did you grow so tall and so good after exercising for a long time?" After pinching for the first time, Mo Cheng stretched out his hand for the second time.

"I used to exercise a lot in the past, and boys will grow up very fast." Herod said, taking a towel beside him to wipe his feet, and Mo Cheng walked by the bathtub with his feet dangling in the air. It's fine to hug him on the bed, but think about it, how can a little boy like to be hugged?After Herod washed his hands, he took a pair of slippers and helped Meaux put them on. "Now you're just not opening."

"But I'm not tall, and I don't have such hard muscles." Mo Cheng squeezed his arms, let alone muscles, let's eat more "chicken".

"So eat well, and I will take you to exercise more in the future." Herod habitually rubbed Mo Cheng's hair, and pulled him out of the bathroom, "Sleep with me here tonight, okay?"

"Thank you." When Herod covered the city with the quilt, he heard him say softly.

"Don't say thank you." Herod lay down next to Mo Cheng, reclined and looked at Mo Cheng beside him, "You are fine, you have to accept other people's concern for you."

"But you are the first person to help me wash my feet, and you are also the first person to pick me up from school." Mo Cheng was silent for a moment, then raised his head and said a reason. For him, everything that is good needs to be found. justified.

"It was a bad life before, right?" Herod leaned on his side with his arms propped up and looked down at Chengcheng, Chengcheng rolled his eyes, "It's okay, I just don't like it."

"Would you mind telling me?" Herod had always wanted to hear about Meaux's past, at least how he felt about his past.

"After my parents passed away, I followed my second uncle and aunt. They were generally very kind to me, but I didn't like them often arguing in the middle of the night. They would pull me up when they were arguing. When I was angry, I would ask my second uncle why I Bring me back. Although I don't like this kind of life very much, and I don't know why my second uncle and aunt don't like me and still support me, but at least they took me back, and I won't live in an orphanage."

Herod listened quietly. He enjoyed Mocheng's voice very much. Although the content was very distressing, Chengcheng seldom said so much, "You know they don't love you?"

Mo Cheng nodded calmly, "I know, no one likes outsiders who bring burdens to the family." Mo Cheng fully accepts such an explanation, or such a way of understanding, using his own debts to cover up the hurt.

Herod finally knew why Mocheng didn't sleep well, because when he was a child, he was often pulled up and scolded by his second uncle and aunt when he was sound asleep, how sad he must have been at that time, maybe now he is just numb.

"You..." Herod hesitated, but he still asked, "Is that why you jumped?"

Mo Cheng was silent for a moment, then slowly said "No." Then there was another burst of silence.

Herod heard Meaux's negation, he knew it was true, Meaux would not lie, at least up to now Meaux has always been honest, so what made him lose his belief in living?

"Why is that?" Herod continued to ask.

Mo Cheng covered half of his face under the quilt, and shook his head, "I don't want to lie to you, but I don't want to say it."

Auction Meaux!

For Mo Cheng, that kind of environment is just a sentence to him, "It's okay, I just don't like it." Then what made him react so violently? It can be seen that people who will seek death, no matter how much they appear on the surface. Calm, pain is never something other people can think about.

"Sorry, if you don't want to say it, I won't ask." Herod covered Mo Cheng with a quilt and said with a smile, which also made Mo Cheng look a little different. "You are not allowed to say thank you."

Mo Cheng hesitated to speak at this moment, "You...you asked me to come because you have something to say?"

Herod was taken aback for a moment, then smiled peacefully in the blink of an eye, "You can't sleep, and I can't sleep, can you come and stay with me?"

It is certain that Herod himself once again threw away the opportunity. Meaux suffered far more than what he said in his mouth. There must be more. Herod is not sure where the bottom line of Meaux is, no Knowing when the bottom line will come to the surface, I can't guarantee anything, I even hope that he can live a peaceful and peaceful life for one day, and one day of happiness is enough. As for whether he will resent or reject him in the future, he will definitely try his best to protect this child .

"Aren't you going to school?" Mo Cheng looked at Herod's appearance, and suddenly started counting. At the end of the count, his head was a little knotted. "You should go to college."

"Are you curious?" Herod pinched Mo Cheng's nose, "I've done it."

"It's a lie, your age doesn't match, are you still China's Bill Gates?" Mo Cheng Nunu mouth looked distrustful.

Herod couldn't help but want to go up and hug the little head that was exposed outside the quilt, "I may not be as capable as him, but I haven't gone to school before."

"You..." Mo Cheng raised his head to meet Herod's eyes, "Aren't you rich?"

"Because I didn't want to go to school before college, I invited teachers to teach at home. At that time, because I didn't know what to do, I wanted to fill up 24 hours a day. It was even faster and longer than the average person. Later, my father was there after graduating from college. He passed away in [-], so I can only succeed him." Herod patiently explained.

Mo Cheng smiled, "I thought you were a genius, the kind that can go to a good university without studying."

"When I was young, I needed to take that little guy with me. I didn't have enough time. Later, when the little guy was gone, I didn't know what to do..." Herod laughed unconsciously as he spoke.

Listening to Herod's words, Mo Cheng couldn't help but start to envy again. His envy was very calm, and no one noticed it. I don't know where he is?Mocheng had the feeling that all the good things now came from Herod's younger brother, and felt that he seemed to have seized what belonged to him, "He will come back, trust me." Herod was relieved a lot by this simple sentence.

Herod hoped that Mocheng could think of him when he was a child, and that the little guy was him. It's a pity that the memory of that kind of childhood, how could it last forever? .

"Good night." Herod's voice came from the top of his head, and the corners of Mo Cheng's mouth slightly raised, "Good night."

Early the next morning, Mo Cheng was still asleep, and when Herod woke up, he was still lying quietly in his arms, in the sleeping position with his body arched up again, his face almost touching his chest.

It’s almost six o’clock, and Meaux’s biological clock is always on time, but today he didn’t wake up on time, his breathing was very steady, it seemed that he had slept well, and he was afraid that he would be late, but in a blink of an eye it turned out that today is Saturday, when we reported yesterday It's already Friday, so luckily let him sleep a little longer.

Herod was already awake, but he didn't dare to move, for fear of disturbing the child next to him, he just lay quietly.

But no matter how deeply he slept, it would not take long for those who should wake up, and Mocheng began to show signs of waking up at a quarter past six.

"I'm late!" Mo Cheng opened his eyes and suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he said something.

After finishing speaking, Mocheng
