middle of the road

After the door was closed, the room became very quiet for a moment. The sound of wind and rain outside the window was isolated from the closed sensory world along with other impetuous hustle and bustle. Within a distance of less than one meter, nothing happened.

However, the few bright red blood spots that can be seen are magnified and blurred in a vacuum-like environment, making them look even more dazzling.

Cheng Yang stared at it for a while, went into the bathroom and took a mop, forgot to wet it under the water, and dragged it over suddenly, but pulled out a larger piece of trace, sticking to the floor in long strips, as if not waiting In a second, the sticky and slippery touch will go up the rod.

Just like the people he threw out.

endless...

Cheng Yang let go of his hand suddenly, and threw the mop towards the door forcefully. After hitting it, it bounced back and knocked down the chair by the door. With several loud impacts, the reverberation reverberated intermittently for a while. , His heart that was clamoring abnormally finally calmed down a little. @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

So I went into the kitchen to continue washing the dishes.

After washing the last one, the right hand slipped over the face, and the bowl fell out of the edge of the pot, and a piece was broken on the sink.

Cheng Yang leaned against the door of the cupboard, took the broken bowl in his hand, stared out the window in a daze, then turned around and threw it into the trash can.

The weather forecast said that it would rain in the next few days, and there were no other plans for May [-]th. Cheng Yang planned to rest at home, and by the way, rolled out the last few exercises in the first grade, so when he came back last night, he put the The food for two days has been bought.

Cheng Ying and Cheng Le usually have to make up lessons in the morning on the day of the holiday. When they get home around [-] o'clock, Cheng Yang is going to go back to sleep in the middle of the few hours. A/C on except gets wet.

Leaning against the head of the bed, I was a little dazed, but I hadn't really fallen asleep, and I woke up several times inexplicably when I heard the wind in the middle.

When he woke up for the last time, he took a book from the bedside, flipped through [-] or [-] pages, and checked that it was almost time before getting up to wash vegetables and cook.

Cheng Le stepped up the stairs with his schoolbag on his back. The light in the corridor was dark and the sky outside was still cloudy. Under such circumstances, he suddenly looked up and saw someone sitting at the door of his house. Naturally, he was startled.

The man lowered his head, covered his stomach with one hand, and hung the other hand on his knee, motionless, he couldn't even feel his breath, as if he was in a trance, the picture looked so weird, Cheng Le looked at it Looking around, the footsteps paused, and then stepped up the last two steps with a little care.

Hearing the voice, the man raised his head and looked at him. Even in such a low-visibility environment, his face was indescribably pale. Cheng Le's heart skipped a beat when he saw his face, especially when he saw the spot at the corner of his mouth clearly. When the blood dried up, her heartbeat became more and more hasty.

The person on the opposite side squinted his eyes at him for a while, and then smiled slightly. At that moment, Cheng Le felt that this face looked familiar.

After looking back for a long time, he was suddenly startled, "Chi...Brother Yu?"

Chi Yu's smile was on his lips all the time, even though he was weak, he managed not to let it go, "Long time no see Cheng Le, do you still remember me?"

"I remember, of course I remember." Cheng Le hurriedly stepped forward, "Why are you sitting here? My brother should be at home, you knock on the door..."

Chi Yu shook his head, raised his finger and pointed inside, signaling him to keep quiet.

Cheng Le didn't understand for a while, what does this mean... already met?Does his brother know he's outside?

"Brother Chi Yu, are you feeling uncomfortable?" Cheng Le knelt down and looked at him, and asked worriedly, "Why don't you go in and have a meeting, there is a sofa inside, you can lie down first, is it a stomachache? There should be medicine in it, I remember."

Chi Yu still shook his head, turned around and coughed twice, "You go in first, don't worry about me, your brother should be waiting for you to eat."

The more he said that, the more strange Cheng Le felt. Chi Yu's appearance didn't look like he had a stomachache, especially the blood stain on his mouth was more like someone had beaten him. Maybe... He suddenly had a bad guess. Although his brother was not very good-tempered, he had never seen him hit anyone, especially this person was Chi Yu, who hadn't seen him for many years. Is it so unexpected?

Cheng Le's memory of Chi Yu still stays at the time when he was seven or eight years old. He remembered that he and his brother had a very good relationship at that time. Things to eat, wear and play, many of which he has never even seen before.

It's a pity that when they finally left, Cheng Yang ordered them not to take anything with them, and they all stayed in the house at the beginning, even a little doll that Cheng Ying secretly hid. Yang found out that he took it out and threw it away.

Cheng Le might have a hunch, but he didn't expect his brother's attitude to be so firm after meeting again after so many years.

"No matter what, you can't just sit here." Cheng Le pursed his lips, came to Fuchiyu, and took out the key with the other hand to open the door.

After entering, I didn't see Cheng Yang, the kitchen door was closed, and the sound of the range hood was a bit loud, covering up the movement on their side, Cheng Le supported Chi Yu's shoulders, and put him on the soft chair by the door, Then I changed my shoes and went to look for medicine under the TV cabinet in the living room.

"Don't bother." After only moving such a distance, Chi Yu's face was obviously a few degrees worse than before, "I have the medicine at home."

"Where do you live?" Cheng Le asked, "Why don't I take you back now."

Chi Yu reported a place, and Cheng Le almost thought he heard it wrong, "You... come from that far place?"

Still locked out by his brother?

Chi Yu probably saw what he was thinking, and smiled slightly, "I have already asked a friend to pick it up, and it should be there in an hour. I'm still waiting outside..." @无限好文，全在晋江Literature City

"Don't, don't, just stay in the house, the humidity in the corridor is so heavy, in case you catch a cold again." Cheng Le lowered his head and continued to look for medicine, but there was some medicine for reducing fever and pain, but he didn't see stomach medicine. I remember that Cheng Yang used his medical insurance card to buy a lot of stock here.

"Wait for me first." Cheng Le poured him a cup of hot water, went into the bedroom and covered himself with a small blanket, then turned to the kitchen.

"Brother." Cheng Le closed the door with his backhand, leaned against the refrigerator, and asked in a low voice with some hesitation: "Did you quarrel with Brother Chi Yu? He was sitting outside alone, and he seemed to be injured. Do you have any stomach medicine at home? Seeing that he is in severe pain, if not, why don't we send him to the hospital."

Cheng Yang had guessed that Chi Yu hadn't left since he heard the commotion in the living room just now, or even earlier, from the moment he smashed the mop, there was a sudden and aggravated gasp faintly heard through the door, he knew that he Turning to look at Cheng Le, "Who told you to bring him in?"

Cheng Le froze from his cold tone, and it took him a long time to turn his head around, and called him uncertainly, "Brother..."

Cheng Yang seemed unwilling to continue this topic. He turned down the fire, turned his back to wash the vegetables, and asked after a while, "Where is Yingying?"

"She has something to do in the afternoon, and she won't be back until dinner, so let me tell you." Cheng Le stepped forward, organized his words, and carefully asked, "You and brother Chiyu...what's the matter with you? He's still sick in this weather, so it's not good to let him sit outside."

"It's not your business." Cheng Yang's face was still ashen, and it seemed that there was no room for negotiation, "I'll say it again, let him go out."

"Brother!" Cheng Le was a little anxious by his order, no matter how low his voice was just now, "Brother Chi Yu was injured, and he looked serious, even if you get angry with him again, you can We can’t ignore him like this, he used to be so good to us..."

"Even you are not obedient!" Cheng Yang suddenly accentuated his tone, and turned off the faucet forcefully, "Before? What did you know before?!"

"I..." Cheng Le was at a loss for words. He really didn't know why Cheng Yang left that place and moved so thoroughly back then, and he didn't know why he never saw Chi Yu again after that, even when he stayed behind. I have to throw away any insignificant things in my life, and I don't know why after so many years, they finally meet again, but there is a deep hatred between the two of them.

Cheng Yang pushed him away, opened the kitchen door and walked into the living room, "How soon will your friend be here?"

Chi Yu was holding a glass of water and was a little lost. When he saw him asking him, he put down the glass and smiled, "Up to an hour."

"Okay." Cheng Yang looked at the clock on the wall, "It's 11:30 now, and it's 12:30, I hope I don't need to remind you a second time."

"Hmm." Chi Yu's weak face became paler and paler in the rising heat, but Cheng Le felt that the smile on his lips was not forced at all, instead there was a special tenderness in it, He kept looking at Cheng Yang, his brows and eyes were much calmer than before.

"I'll go," he said.

Cheng Yang glanced at him again, turned around and entered his room, and closed the door heavily.

Cheng Le walked over hurriedly, Fu Chiyu sat on the sofa, and stuffed a pillow for him to rest on his stomach, which relieved the discomfort a little.

"My brother is like this." He comforted him and said, "His mouth is hard and his heart is soft. It will be fine in two days when his anger subsides."

"I know." Chi Yu looked at him, "Thank you."

After a while, he put his hand on top of Cheng Le's head and pressed it lightly like he did when he was a child, "I'm glad to see you are still by his side."

The friend Chi Yu called was not Fu Jin, but Jiang Mingyang. Jiang Mingyang drove here from S City, and it took him more than two hours at the fastest speed. When he arrived, Cheng Le came to open the door for him. He hadn't seen him before. Cheng Le probably I don't remember him, and the words are very polite.

Jiang Mingyang glanced at Chiyu's state, and then saw the tightly closed bedrooms, he probably understood everything.

He didn't ask anything, and helped Chi Yu up with Cheng Le alone.

Before leaving, he went to the bedroom door and knocked lightly, "Cheng Yang, I'm Jiang Mingyang, I'm glad to see you again, Chi Yu's condition is not very good, so I'll take him back first, and I'll see you another day Reminiscing about the past."

There was no response from the room. Jiang Mingyang expected this outcome. To be honest, when he first came in, he was quite surprised to see Chi Yu sitting on the sofa in their living room with hot water and a quilt. When he first received the call, he thought he could only squat in front of their house.

But looking at Cheng Le's expression of relief after taking Chi Yu all the way to the car carefully and cautiously, it's probably not hard to guess whose blessing it is.

Along the way, Chi Yu coughed non-stop, as if he could not hold it in anymore, and now he didn't need to hold back, the cough was a little uncontrollable.

Jiang Mingyang looked at him from the rearview mirror, and couldn't help sighing. He didn't know about finding Cheng Yang. For a man like him who was bruised and bruised in his memory, he was about to die because of the loss of hope. For those who let go, whether it is good or bad.
