you are with the light

Gu Jinbei had experienced family trips, but none of them were pleasant trips.But no matter how reluctant she was, her stepfather opened her mouth, and Gu Jinbei couldn't say no, so she could only vaguely say: "As long as I can go out to play, anywhere is fine!" With a cheerful and lively tone, it seemed that he really I am very happy and looking forward to it.

In the evening, their family gathered together for dinner, and their stepfather and Xia Yin were discussing where to go for the National Day with great interest, while Gu Jinbei ate in silence.He was very quiet, and he only spoke when his stepfather asked him for advice, and what he said was nothing more than "well, well, go anywhere".

After dinner, the stepfather took their mother and son out for a walk. When they were at the door, Gu Jinbei looked at the opposite door, not knowing what Chen Ke planned for this long vacation.

Seeing that Chen Ke always looks indifferent, probably the National Day is to lie at home for seven days, and then go out to school on the eighth day.

During dinner, Chen Ke mentioned to Chen Wanran about going to a part-time job. Chen Wanran didn't care about him, but nodded after listening to him: "Go if you think you can." They all look like they are about to wither, and Chen Ke sometimes feels unbearable when he looks at her.

"Oh, by the way, your uncle," Chen Wanran said, "I only found out a few days ago that they moved to the city. If anything happens to you, go to your uncle."

"Yeah." Chen Ke replied casually, and didn't take it seriously. His uncle lived more times in his mother's mouth than in front of him. He never pinned unnecessary hopes on his uncle. .

After dinner, Chen Wanran was about to go out again.Sitting at the dining table, Chen Ke watched her put on her shoes at the door, and suddenly said, "When are you willing to go out with me?"

As soon as his words came out, Chen Wanran's movements stopped.Chen Ke doesn't like to be coquettish, but what he said just now has a pitiful coquettish meaning, which made Chen Wanran's heart ache.

She seldom goes out with Chen Ke. On the one hand, she is busy—her market is very good. On the other hand, she feels ashamed and fears that if she walks with her son, he will be ignored or abused casually. .

"In the future, when I grow up, would you like to go out with me?" Chen Ke lay on the back of the chair and looked at her, his beautiful almond eyes filled with anticipation, "When the time comes, I'll take you out to play, okay?" good?"

Chen Wanran couldn't say no to it.

Every time she couldn't hold on and was about to collapse, she missed her son.Her son looks really good, like her, and he is worry-free, and knows how to love her, so she feels, ah, gritted her teeth, as if she can survive again.

The mother and son had only each other left.

Seeing Chen Wanran go out, Chen Ke sighed softly.He dangled his feet boredly and sat in a chair in a daze.

After a daze for a while, he went to clean up the dishes.He poured the leftovers into a bowl and brought them to Mrs. Chen who lived on the small balcony.

Mrs. Chen was not as arrogant as she was when she came here.Her edges and corners have been forcibly smoothed by Chen Ke. Chen Ke's heart is vicious, and he has no hesitation in showing mercy to his own grandma, only ruthless means.

Mrs. Chen doesn't dare to pick on bad food, refuses Chen Ke to take her out for a walk, dare not say anything casually.With the knife still hidden in her eyes, she fiercely gouged out at Chen Ke, but she couldn't goug out a piece of his flesh.

After feeding Mrs. Chen, Chen Ke went to clear the dining table.When he was washing the dishes, he heard someone knock on the door, so he went to open the door.

Lu Weijian stood outside the door.

This was really unexpected, Chen Ke was not mentally prepared, and his surprise was written all over his face: "You..."

Lu Weijian smiled at him: "Go for a walk?"

Chen Ke stood at the door and looked at him. If a person changed, his smile would not be fake, but Chen Ke still agreed.

The two walked to the river, and the afterglow of the evening would never fall, casting tiny and shimmering rays of light on the river.

"Can you stay away from Sun Jia Ni?" Lu Weijian said after walking for a while.

His tone was not very pleasing, like an order, which made Chen Ke strangely uncomfortable.

"It's beyond my control." Chen Ke said, "If she leans over, I can't refuse."

Lu Weijian's fist came unexpectedly, just like his current changes, it was too fast for people to adapt to.Chen Ke didn't react and told him to slash his face, as if his skin had been pierced by something sharp.

Chen Ke raised his hand to wipe off the sticky liquid.

"Don't you think your face really looks like your bitch/mother?" Lu Weijian laughed viciously, like a little boy who succeeded in a prank, childish and ridiculous.

Chen Ke kicked him in the stomach.

"But you have to admit the benefits this face has brought me." Chen Ke didn't have any expression on his face, as if making an expression would take all his strength, and he was already tired of coping.

Maybe when he saw Lu Weijian walking with Liu Wu, he should kill the so-called hope.

But he was obviously not as indifferent as he showed. When he thought of the path the two of them had traveled in the past, he felt that there might be a chance to redeem it.

It turned out that this was all his wishful thinking.

Lu Weijian jumped up from the ground and kicked him. Chen Ke was prepared this time and easily dodged it.He didn't want to fight with Lu Weijian, nor did he want to make it too embarrassing in the end, so he subdued Lu Weijian, pressed him to the ground, and said, "Goodbye, friend."

He let go of his hand, Lu Weijian lay on the ground without moving, Chen Ke pushed aside the crowd and walked out. As he walked, a sense of sadness suddenly arose in his heart. This feeling was like a tornado, sweeping across his heart instantly. whole heart.

He walked home alone, until the setting sun sank into the mountain peak, and the street lights came on, lengthening his lonely shadow.

He walked home, subconsciously looking back at the closed door next door at the door.The door is a good thing, it can block other people's detection, no matter what kind of pain, joy, sorrow or joy happens inside, others will never see it.

Maybe Gu Jinbei is eating dinner now, maybe he is being beaten by his mother, maybe...

Chen Ke opened the door and walked in.

The next morning, Chen Ke woke up.He tidied up a bit and went to the bus station. Sun Jiani hadn't arrived yet, so he waited for a while before he saw Sun Jiani who was late.

They all wear school uniforms on weekdays, and they look like the assembly line products from the same factory. Today, Sun Jiani wore a small floral dress and a hairpin, making her look young and cute. Chen Ke suddenly realized that this kind of Sun Jiani is beautiful.

When Sun Jiani saw him, she was startled: "Oh my God, what happened to your face? Did someone scratch it?"

"No." Chen Ke didn't want to say more, "I got rubbed."

Sun Jiani obviously didn't believe it, but she wisely didn't ask any further questions.

Chen Ke has been to the city, but not many times, this time is the most meaningful one among the few times.

When Sun Jiani came here, he said that he was not old enough to do public work, but he could do odd jobs for the chef. Chen Ke was not picky about these things, and when Sun Jiani said, he nodded.

Uncle Sun Jia Ni's restaurant is very big. At least Chen Ke was shocked when he arrived. He has grown up so much, but he has seen so little in the world. To him, these things are like gods in the sky. They are too far away from him. And unattainable.

Sun Jiani seemed to be used to this, so she naturally led him in.Chen Ke followed her and bowed his head, looking very unconfident.The two walked through the lobby and went to the manager. The manager recognized Sun Jiani and had no objection to the people Sun Jiani brought, so he asked him if he could go to work now. After Chen Ke nodded, he was taken to the back kitchen.

The kitchen is huge, and there are kitchen utensils that Chen Ke has never seen before. Chen Ke was very curious, but he forcibly resisted the desire to spy, and just stood quietly, waiting for the chef's approval.

The chef is a middle-aged man, slightly fat, with a big belly, his eyes are hidden in the side meat, but he looked Chen Ke up and down with fiery eyes, and finally asked: "What will you do?" ?”

"Anything."

"Can do anything?" The chef laughed, "Can you cook?"

"I know some." Chen Ke said honestly, "It's all home cooking."

The chef looked at him again, and finally nodded: "All right."

Chen Ke's work is not difficult and has no technical content, but it is complicated and complicated, and it will make people feel tired after working for a long time.The chef has another apprentice, young and energetic, he takes good care of Chen Ke, which makes Chen Ke a lot easier.

When they were free, the two chatted.The apprentice is a person who is very good at chatting, and his presence makes this chat not seem too far-fetched. He asked Chen Ke's name and how old he is, and was a little surprised when he heard it: "You are only 12 years old, and you look really good. Not like! You look too mature for your age."

After he finished speaking, he realized something was wrong: "I didn't mean that, you know, I didn't mean it maliciously. You look very good, very good, I mean, you are very..."

"I don't care about these." Chen Ke smiled, "I even hope that I really look bigger."

Ever since he could remember, he had been eager to grow up and grow into a towering tree that could shelter Chen Wanran from wind and rain, but time passed slowly. After waiting for so many years, he was still just a crumbling sapling.

"I used to hope that I could grow up quickly, because I thought it was cool." The apprentice said, "Now that I have grown up, I feel that I was really good when I was a child. Humans are always greedy. Oh, yes , My name is Meng Dujiang, Meng is the Meng of Meng Jiangnu, Du is the lonely Du, and Jiang is the ginger of ginger."

Meng Dujiang was very handsome when he smiled. He had a good-looking skin, which was more handsome than Chen Ke's femininity. Chen Ke looked at him, and suddenly felt envious in his heart.

Meng Dujiang didn't go to high school this year, but came here as an apprentice after graduating from junior high school.When he talked about this, Chen Ke always felt kind. They were similar in some ways. Chen Ke felt that he had met a companion, which made him not feel that he was just alone.

Meng Dujiang chatted with Chen Ke, his family was in the city, so he had better knowledge than Chen Ke.When he talked about the truth, he was very clear, and when he talked about his future dreams, he was full of fighting spirit: "You know Beijing, our capital. I will go to Beijing in the future and open a restaurant there. Then you can go to me. I will definitely hire you as a cook."

Chen Ke's talent is rewarded by God, he seems to be better than Meng Dujiang.His occasional talent was praised by the chef, and he even taught him some tricks as an exception.

It's not too early after work is done every day, but Meng Dujiang's life is rich and not disturbed by time. He took Chen Ke to the Internet cafe, insisted on applying for a QQ account for him, and then added him as friends.

"Don't underestimate the Internet. Its future development will definitely overwhelm you. It's always good to play more." Meng Dujiang said.

The seven days passed quickly because of work. When Chen Ke left, Meng Dujiang gave him a phone number: "You can call me if you have anything to do. My phone number will not change." Meng Dujiang has a Noaki, he met Chen Ke before, and asked Chen Ke if he wanted to play, but Chen Ke refused.

Chen Ke accepted the phone number, and heard Meng Dujiang say again: "You can come and play with me when you are on vacation, and my brother will take you."

Chen Ke smiled, and two dimples appeared, like two whirlpools, almost sucking Meng Dujiang into it.

When Chen Ke came home, Chen Wanran was eating instant noodles at home. Chen Ke couldn't help frowning when he saw it: "Why don't you go out to eat?"

"Trouble, you still have to show your face." Chen Wanran said while eating, "This food is not bad. I used to want to eat it when I was young, but now I can eat it and get back my money."

Chen Ke walked over and took out the money. Chen Wanran glanced at it and said with a smile, "Son, it's not bad."

Chen Ke stood still: "You take it."

Chen Wanran raised her head, still smiling: "You take it, go shopping, buy whatever you like, mom won't tell you."

Even Chen Wanran would not talk about him normally, no matter what he bought was useful or useless, Chen Wanran never vented the burden of life on her on Chen Ke, she always tried her best to create A greenhouse, put Chen Ke in it and take good care of it.

"You take it." Chen Ke said, "Don't go to work today, go for a walk with me."

It was all because the mist from the instant noodles was so hot that Chen Wanran's eyes were smoky red.

It was the first time that Gu Jinbei discovered that family outings were so interesting. His stepfather showed him a new world that he had never experienced before, and Gu Jinbei got unparalleled happiness in this new world.

Xia Yin seemed to be infected too.

She was not a woman with a heart of stone. It was life and fate that solidified her heart. Now that her stepfather is holding her heart in his hands and protecting it, Xia Yin has a faint tendency to melt.

Gu Jinbei sat with them and listened to them talk about the past. His stepfather said: "At that time, I sat behind you and watched you from behind every day in class."

Xia Yin couldn't remember: "Is there?"

"Yes." The stepfather said with a smile, "I know you must have forgotten it. At that time, you only had Gu Zhong in your heart. You liked him, I know."
