countdown to winter

When the police called, Wen Xia was still at school, hung up the phone and rushed to the hospital, and then saw the blood on Shi Xing's face, he lost consciousness, Wen Xia's head was blank, and he hardly knew what to do.

After the operation, when he looked at Shi Xing on the white bed with bandages on his head, pale face, and motionless, he still felt unreal, and touched his breath with trembling hands.

Shi Xing stretched out his hand, held Wen Xia's hand, and pressed it lightly.

He really didn't know how to face this worry, so he could only use this way to express——I'm fine.

After Shi Xing woke up, he became drowsy again. Wen Xia drew the curtains, and he just fell asleep. The nurse came to change the medicine, and he woke up.

When the nurse left, Shi Xing said, "I want to go to the toilet..."

"I go with you."

Shi Xing: "No need, my legs are fine..."

As a result, as soon as he stood up, he swayed after walking a few steps. Wen Xia hurriedly helped him up, a little helpless: "Let me walk with you, so as not to have another concussion."

Shi Xing smiled, and asked Wen Xia to support him as kindly as he could.

When we got to the toilet, Wen Xia said, "Go ahead, I'll turn around and not look at you."

Shi Xing hesitated for a while, took off his pants, took them out, and did not move for a while, "Teacher Wen... why don't you go out first, I can't get out while you are here."

Wen Xia didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she went out and waited.

After Shi Xing went to the toilet, when he went out, he glanced in the mirror inadvertently, and stopped his feet. Wen Xia saw that he stopped, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Shi Xing touched his head, confused: "Where is my hair?"

Wen Xia let out a "puchi" laugh, he also patted Shi Xing's head, and said, "This will save trouble, and you will use less shampoo."

"..."

At the beginning of February, the court's verdict came down.

Shi Haoran, robbery and rape, five years and three months.

Shi Xing was still sitting on the bed when he heard the news, Wen Xia told him the result softly, Shi Xing listened in a daze, unable to believe that his long darkness ended so easily.

Wen Xia: "Are you okay?"

Shi Xing suddenly stretched out his hand, hugged his waist, knelt down on the bed, and buried his head on his chest, Wen Xia's body froze, and he put his hands aside helplessly.

He didn't react until he felt the wetness on his clothes.

Shi Xing cried.

Ever since Shi Xing confessed his love to him, Wen Xia has been cautiously keeping a distance, avoiding some physical contact, and avoiding things that make Shi Xing think too much, but at this time, it seems that these are not so important, he tentatively took a picture Pat him on the back.

"Congratulations on getting a new life."

"You will have a brand new day."

In the afternoon, Shi Xing was discharged from the hospital.

The daily expenses in the hospital are very expensive, Shi Xing really has no money, and he is embarrassed to ask Wen Xia to keep paying him. Wen Xia wanted him to stay for a few more days to see the situation, but Shi Xing couldn't hold back.

It was almost the Spring Festival, Wen Xia asked him: "Would you like to come to my house for dinner?"

Shi Xing froze for a moment, then shook his head, "No, I'll just stay at home."

"Your family...who will take care of you?"

"It's okay, I've been here for so many years," Shi Xing smiled, "It's all the same—when will you leave?"

"The air ticket the day after tomorrow," Wen Xia said, "Are you sure you don't want to go to my house?"

Shi Xing shook his head.

Wen Xia had no choice but to agree.

Wen Xia sent him to the gate of Xinghuayuan, Shi Xing got off his bicycle and left, Shi Xing looked at the side of the road, the withered branch stretched out to the sky like a desperate hand, while on the horizon, he caught the spring light.

Shi Xing felt so relaxed for the first time, on the way home.

He took out the key and opened the door, only to find that the door was closed but not locked.

Impossible, it was locked when he came back last time.

Shi Xing paused, opened the door cautiously, and saw a man and a woman sitting in the living room.The men are wearing suits, and the women are wearing white down jackets. They all look like "rich people".

They stood up and smiled at him.

Shi Xing looked at them vigilantly, with one leg back, he could run away in case of any accident, he said, "Why are you at my house?"

"Let me introduce myself. I'm Shi Hong, and this is Zhuang Ran," the man stood up, with a shy smile on his face, "I'm Shi Haoran's brother, are you his son?"

Shi Haoran's brother?

Shi Xing has never heard of Shi Haoran's relatives, and their family never visits during the Chinese New Year. His mother's relatives are poor, dead, and not decent. As for his father, he only knows that Shi Haoran and his family are divorced got in touch——

Shi Hong said: "We've heard about Shi Haoran. Back then, he was too ugly. My dad—that is, your grandfather, kicked him out in a fit of anger. There has been no news for so many years. this."

Shi Xing stared at him: "Is there any evidence?"

Account book.

It is clearly written above.

"So in the future, you come to our house first - your aunt and I have no children, so you can treat it as your own home."

Shi Xing felt that he was dreaming, this dream came suddenly and illogically, he lowered his eyes and picked his hands, not knowing what to say.

Shi Hong talked for a long time, nothing more than innocuous words, suddenly Shi Xing raised his head: "What did you just say?"

"I said," said Shi Hong, who had a good temper and was not angry, "We wanted to take you to Beijing, where you would have an advantage in studying and taking the college entrance examination. It is indeed inconvenient for us to have you here."

Shi Xing subconsciously refused: "No."

"You're only a sophomore in high school, so it's still too late to adapt," Shi Hong said, "I've seen your grades, and your scores are quite high, I think it's pretty good."

Shi Xing said, "I don't want to leave here."

Zhuang Ran on the side frowned.

She said: "The transfer is definitely going to happen. We are now your guardians in name. If we are in this place, we really can't take care of it—well, we'll give you three days, and you can clean it up by the way." Things, in three days we will go through the formalities for you."
