just like it

Luo Wei held Zhang Jing's hand instead, frowned, with a very tangled expression: "Mom, don't scare yourself, I really didn't do anything bad, it's just... just..."

He hesitated to speak, and Zhang Jing became even more anxious: "What is it? Tell me quickly."

Luo Wei glanced at Luo Yuchuan intentionally or unintentionally: "It's just... I want to save some money and exchange for a better guitar."

He lowered his voice as he spoke, but it was so clear that everyone present could hear him clearly.

Perhaps because he already had a premonition, Luo Yuchuan didn't even blink his eyes when he heard this.

Zhang Jing was a little confused: "What guitar? Didn't I ask your brother to buy you a better one? Xiaochuan, didn't you buy it for Xiaowei?"

"I didn't buy it." Luo Yuchuan said calmly.

Luo Wei was a little surprised, he didn't expect Luo Yuchuan to admit it.

Luo Yuchuan said again: "I sent him the money and told him to buy it himself."

Zhang Jing looked at Luo Wei again: "Are you trying to save money? Can't bear to buy a good one?"

Luo Wei stared at Luo Yuchuan, looking like he was about to lose his temper again.

After telling Luo Yuchuan what happened just now, Luo Zhengqiang squatted aside to smoke.Listening to the mother talking here for a while, she turned her head to see the younger son staring again, stood up and coughed, and said, "Why are you staring? Talk to your mother."

Zhang Jing is still complaining: "You say you kid, why do you want to save money on this? Don't you still say you want to buy a good one? My brother gave you money and you still..."

"Mom, don't listen to him!" Luo Wei yelled at Zhang Jing, then glared at Luo Yuchuan, "He just gave me 1000 yuan, what can I buy with 1000 yuan?"

After shouting so loudly, Luo Wei was still angry, and Luo Yuchuan didn't respond, only Luo Zhengqiang and Zhang Jing were at a loss.

The old couple looked at each other, and then at their two sons. After a while, Zhang Jing said hesitantly: "1000 yuan...isn't it enough?"

Luo Yuchuan said flatly: "The one he likes costs nearly 7000 yuan."

Luo Zhengqiang was taken aback: "It's so expensive? You can't ask for it!"

Luo Zhengqiang and Zhang Jing were just ordinary workers. When the factory was doing well, their combined monthly salary was just over [-] yuan. When they heard that a guitar would cost nearly [-] yuan, they couldn't accept it psychologically.

Zhang Jing, who has always been responsive to Luo Wei's request, was also hit by this reality at the moment, and wanted to say "then it shouldn't be so expensive", but looking at Luo Wei's angry and hurt face, he felt distressed.

She hesitated and said, "Then...the money is not enough, you can tell me to tell your brother..."

Luo Wei interrupted her with a sneer: "I told him, and he said that he only gave me so much, and that the money is not enough, so it's none of his business."

Speaking of which, Luo Wei has grown up with Zhang Jing for so many years, and he has stepped on Zhang Jing's minefield.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Zhang Jing immediately turned to look at Luo Yuchuan: "What do you mean it's none of your business? Can Xiaowei's business not be your business?"

Luo Zhengqiang also knew her temper, and immediately smoothed things over: "You didn't ask first, Xiao Chuan, did you really say that?"

Luo Yuchuan didn't speak.

Luo Wei tilted his mouth and said provocatively: "He can't deny it. He also said that he was not afraid that I would tell Mom, and told me to work to earn money by myself if I had no money. Heh, told me to distribute leaflets and deliver food, and wash dishes in fast food restaurants. , Hehe, people are in a terrible situation now, great architects, if you draw a few houses at random, the money will not come in like running water, look down on our family."

Zhang Jing took a step closer to Luo Yuchuan, and fixedly looked at him: "Ask Xiaowei to work part-time, are you really saying that?"

Luo Yuchuan sighed secretly, nodded: "Yes, I said it."

Luo Wei immediately became proud: "How is it? I didn't accuse him, did I?"

Zhang Jing has already yelled at Luo Yuchuan: "Aren't you reluctant to give it to your brother for just a few thousand dollars? You also asked him to go to work, when did he suffer this kind of hardship? Isn't it just a few thousand dollars? You can't bear to give it Can you tell me if I can do it? Xiaowei has a simple personality and a straight temper, if you hadn't provoked him with your words, he wouldn't have gone to the bar to work, and he wouldn't have had such a thing today!"

Luo Yuchuan lowered his head slightly, with no expression on his face, only silent.

Of course Luo Wei was happy to watch the show, but Luo Zhengqiang couldn't take it anymore, and went to pull Zhang Jing: "What are you yelling about here? Do you want to call the police? If you have anything to do, go home and talk about it. Let's go."

He dragged Zhang Jing to Luo Yuchuan's car, but Luo Wei stood still, pouted and said, "I have to go back to school."

"Go to the hospital first, your injuries haven't been treated yet, come here, get in the car." Zhang Jing turned around, just lost her temper, and lost her voice to her youngest son.

Luo Zhengqiang also greeted: "Xiao Chuan, don't be dazed, drive your brother to the hospital first, and then send him back to school."

Luo Yuchuan passed by Luo Wei, Luo Wei deliberately rolled his eyes at him, Luo Yuchuan ignored him, walked around to the driver's side and got into the car.

"Hurry up." Zhang Jing urged.

Luo Wei reluctantly walked over.

Except for Luo Wei, everyone was relatively unfamiliar with T City. Luo Yuchuan didn't ask any questions, just searched the nearby hospitals and drove.

When getting in the car, Luo Zhengqiang knew that Luo Wei didn't want to sit in the co-pilot, and was afraid that Zhang Jing would continue to talk, so he let the two girls sit in the back seat, and he sat in the co-pilot to give Luo Yuchuan some peace, but in fact, he found that The front and rear rows will not affect Zhang Jing's performance at all.

"Shouldn't Xiaowei come here to study in college. Anyway, there are three colleges. Isn't it the same if we go to one of them? It's far away from home, so we can't take care of it at all." Zhang Jing said with a straight face.

Luo Zhengqiang then persuaded her: "40 minutes by bus is not too far away. Back then, Xiao Chuan went to a university in the provincial capital. At that time, there were no expressways or high-speed trains, so the bus would take five or six hours. Didn't Xiao Chuan take good care of herself?"

"Can it be the same?" Zhang Jing stared at the back of his head dissatisfied, "What do you mean by that? Blame Xiaowei for not being able to study well and not get into the provincial capital?"

Luo Zhengqiang opened his mouth and swallowed the words back, he knew he couldn't talk to her.

What's more, this is already burning the fire on him.

Zhang Jing began to criticize Luo Zhengqiang with her fingers. He never liked to do housework, to be slovenly, to not enterprising in work, to not paying attention to Luo Wei's study, and not to set a good example for Luo Wei. He also didn't pay attention to Luo Wei's grades, which made him only able to take the exams of three colleges.

"All right, all right, it's all my fault, okay?" Luo Zhengqiang had no choice but to make peace.

"Of course it's your fault, and you," Zhang Jing pointed at Luo Yuchuan who had been driving silently, "How can you be a brother like you? When you get better, you don't care about your brother, do you?"

Luo Zhengqiang felt that it was okay for him to be criticized, and Luo Yuchuan was not wrong in this matter. He was about to persuade Zhang Jing to snort, and muttered: "It's not a family, after all, we don't have the same heart."

It sounded discouraged, but also with the expected certainty.

Luo Zheng said sharply: "That's enough! You can't stop talking, can't you?"

He looked at Luo Yuchuan, but found that Luo Yuchuan's expression was normal, he didn't seem to hear Zhang Jing's words, but Luo Wei sneered in the back seat.

Luo Zhengqiang turned his head and glared at Luo Wei. Luo Wei stopped and turned his head to look out of the car window dissatisfied.

From the hospital to Luo Wei's school, Luo Yuchuan was very silent, and he didn't get out of the car when he was sent to the hospital, only Luo Zhengqiang and Zhang Jing accompanied Luo Wei in and went to the emergency room.

Those were just superficial injuries, and the nurse simply applied some medicine to deal with it and it was over. Zhang Jing was still worried, and insisted on taking a film. Luo Wei was unwilling to live or die. After a while, after the doctor's examination, he said that Luo Wei was indeed fine. After experiencing symptoms such as internal bleeding, he finally left the hospital.

It was almost four o'clock when Luo Wei was sent to school. By this time, both Luo Zhengqiang and Zhang Jing looked tired.

Luo Wei got out of the car and waved his hands casually: "Goodbye, Mom and Dad."

Zhang Jing poked her head out of the car window and said worriedly: "Don't go to work anymore, remember to tell mom if you have anything to do. Also, do you know that your injury should not touch the water?"

Luo Wei responded impatiently, "I know."

The window of the driver's cab was lowered. Luo Wei didn't expect Luo Yuchuan to say anything at this time, so he also stopped and stared at Luo Yuchuan in a daze.

But when the car window was lowered, Luo Yuchuan's calm water eyes only glanced at his face, and then he raised the car window again.

It didn't take more than ten seconds before and after, and the gaze stayed on Luo Wei's face for no more than two seconds, but Luo Wei was stared at so uncomfortable.

Luo Wei felt guilty and panicked.

At this point in time, how could he get in the school door? His idea was to find an Internet cafe and wait for dawn after his parents left.

But my parents were in Luo Yuchuan's car, and if Luo Yuchuan didn't drive the car away, they would have been in the car watching him walk to the school gate, and even watch him go in...

Luo Wei felt that he knew what Luo Yuchuan wanted to do.

He gritted his teeth and thought, there is your Luo Yuchuan, waiting for me here, stalking me quietly.

His associative ability was probably also influenced by Zhang Jing, and the performance immediately started in his mind.

Stopped by the school guards, interrogated, refused to enter the school, argued, then notified the teacher, followed the teacher to contact the police station...

Luo Wei walked slowly towards the school gate, while being scared by his own associations, his scalp itched.

He quietly looked back, Luo Yuchuan's car was still parked there.

"Damn." Luo Wei made a mouth shape, not daring to curse out loud.

Getting closer and closer to the gate, he could vaguely hear the sound of the football broadcast coming from the guard room, Luo Wei bit the bullet and walked forward, feeling more and more panicked.

At this time, the sound of a car starting came from behind him, and he hurriedly turned his head, Luo Yuchuan's car drove away.

Luo Wei heaved a sigh of relief. He stopped and looked in the direction the car was driving for a long time. He seemed to be sure that the car would not turn around suddenly, so he turned around and went to the Internet cafe along the school wall.

When Luo Yuchuan sent Luo Zhengqiang and Zhang Jing back to the old community of their hometown, it was almost five o'clock, and the early birds couldn't wait to start chirping.

There was a gleam of light in the sky, but the surroundings seemed to be getting darker.Luo Yuchuan turned on the headlights to show Luo Zhengqiang and Zhang Jing the way, but he didn't intend to get out of the car.

Luo Zhengqiang, who got out of the car and walked into the corridor, also realized something was wrong at this time, turned around and went back to the car, knocked on the window: "Xiao Chuan, why don't you get out of the car?"

Luo Yuchuan lowered the car window and said, "I won't go up, I have to go back to work."

Zhang Jing, who had already walked into the corridor, turned around at this time and said displeasedly, "Why rush? What can I do if I ask for a day off?"

After she finished speaking, she didn't say anything more, and went upstairs by herself.

Luo Zhengqiang persuaded again: "Don't go, you haven't slept all night, don't get tired of driving and it will be fine if something happens, go up, rest and rest before leaving."

The Luo family's old house is quite old and small in size. It has two bedrooms and one living room. Luo Yuchuan and Luo Wei live in one room, with a bunk bed on a wooden frame.

In the past, Luo Wei thought it was troublesome to climb up and down, so he took the lower berth and left the upper berth to Luo Yuchuan.

Luo Yuchuan has been living on campus since he was in junior high school, and he seldom goes home to live there. The last time he went home to stay overnight was during the Chinese New Year this year.

He only stayed for one night that time, because Luo Zhengqiang, Zhang Jing and Luo Wei had decided to go on a trip, and they were about to leave on the first day of the new year. Luo Yuchuan only came back to eat a New Year's Eve dinner, sat in front of the TV and kept watch all night, and then went out again. gone back.

When I came back today, Luo Yuchuan saw that it had only been half a year, and his upper bunk was already full of all kinds of sundries, and the boxes were piled up, which was quite spectacular.

The lower bunk was still tidy, probably because Luo Wei occasionally came back to live on weekends.

Zhang Jing took a bed sheet and came over to him: "You make it yourself and sleep for a while, don't worry about it."

Luo Yuchuan spread the sheets, went to the bathroom to wash his face, returned to the room and closed the door.

He didn't sleep all night, Luo Yuchuan didn't feel sleepy, he was lying on the bed with his clothes on, but he couldn't fall asleep anyway.

The eyelids are heavy, but the brain is clear.

The sound insulation of the old house is not very good, and Luo Zhengqiang and Zhang Jing can be heard talking in a low voice.

Luo Yuchuan didn't listen deliberately, but he still heard clearly what Zhang Jing said with a sigh.

Zhang Jing said: "I hope the school will not let the school know about Xiaowei, otherwise... oh."

Luo Zhengqiang obviously persuaded her a few words, the old couple muttered for a while, and gradually died down.

Luo Yuchuan looked at the board of the upper bunk, and he couldn't help recalling that night, more than ten years ago, in the police station, he faced the same problem as Luo Wei.

Call the parents, or call the teacher.

He made the opposite choice to Luo Wei. He alerted the people of Yuan Kuohai's name and phone number.

That day, after leaving the police station, Yuan Kuohai comforted him and said, "The teacher will handle this matter today. You don't have to worry about the school. You are innocent in this matter."

But there is no impenetrable wall in the world, and the school still received a report letter.

Although under the mediation of Yuan Kuohai, the investigation was carried out in a very low-key way, and the news only spread in a small area of ​​their class for a while before being suppressed. The investigation results obtained by the school from the police station also confirmed Luo Yuchuan's innocence. Whether it was the selection of students or the evaluation of scholarships, his name never appeared on the list.

He didn't know how long he had been lying down, but Luo Yuchuan couldn't fall asleep, so he quietly got up and sat by the bed.

There is a desk opposite the bunk bunk, and several wooden boards are nailed to the wall against the desk to serve as a bookshelf.

Most of the bookshelves used to be filled with his books, as well as awards and certificates from elementary school to high school.Now his books are basically gone, even the small box where he put the certificates of awards is gone.

Luo Yuchuan squatted down and lifted the sheet to look under the bed, wanting to see if the bed had been taken to him, but he couldn't find it for a while, but saw a pile of Luo Wei's shoeboxes.

He reached out and pulled out the outermost shoe box, opened it, and he recognized the pair of shoes inside, which were the limited edition sneakers that Luo Wei had asked him to buy back then.

He once saw Jiang Miao pass by.

At that time, he also had doubts about Jiang Miao wearing limited edition sneakers while working as a salesperson in a shoe store.

Now he naturally wants to understand that with Jiang Miao's family background, buying a pair of limited edition sneakers is really nothing. Even if he was kicked out by the Jiang family as Qiao Ruige said, he would not be able to do it if he wanted to come to the Jiang family. Not even allowed to take a pair of shoes.

Seeing this pair of shoes now, Luo Yuchuan suddenly missed Jiang Miao.

He pushed back the shoebox and took out his phone to check the time.

It's past six o'clock.He stood up and was about to go downstairs and drive home. He had to pick up Jiang Miao today, so he agreed.

Coming out of the bedroom lightly, the door between Luo Zhengqiang and Zhang Jing was closed, and Luo Zhengqiang could be heard snoring.

Luo Yuchuan went to the door to change his shoes, but heard a knock behind him. Zhang Jing came out of the bedroom, looked at him with sleepy eyes, and asked softly, "Are you leaving?"

"Well, I can't sleep anyway. Don't you want to sleep any longer?"

Zhang Jing waved her hand and walked to the kitchen: "I can't sleep. Don't leave yet. It's almost the Dragon Boat Festival. I'll make some zongzi for you."

Luo Yuchuan was stunned for a while, then hurriedly walked over: "No need, we will send out during festivals in our courtyard, I'm alone..."

Zhang Jing looked back at him: "Isn't your mother's bag better than hair?"

Looking at Zhang Jing's black eyes, Luo Yuchuan didn't say anything more about his refusal.

Jiang Miao and Hu Chengjie got out of the high-speed railway station and took a taxi to the studio.

Before the high-speed train departed, Jiang Miao sent Luo Yuchuan a WeChat message, but Luo Yuchuan replied that there was something urgent and he couldn't come to pick him up in time when he returned to his hometown.

Although Jiang Miao was a little disappointed, she still asked if the matter was all right.

Luo Yuchuan replied that it had been resolved, and told him not to worry, and told him to go home and have a good rest, and he would go back in the afternoon.

After going to the studio to put down the equipment, Jiang Miao and Hu Chengjie discussed the matter of editing the film and the arrangement of the next job, and then took a taxi back to the rental room. It was already past two o'clock in the afternoon.

Jiang Miao took a shower, threw the clothes she had changed in the past few days into the washing machine, and changed the sheets and quilts. She felt a little tired while waiting for the clothes to be washed, and planned to lie on the bed for a rest, but when she opened her eyes In a blink of an eye, the room has been filled with Xiaguang.

There was no news of Luo Yuchuan on the phone.

Jiang Miao took the clothes out of the washing machine to dry, threw the changed sheets and quilts into the wash, turned around and picked up the phone again, but there was still no news from Luo Yuchuan.

He put down his phone and went to the kitchen to boil a pot of water. Just as the water started to ring, he hurried out again, grabbed his phone and sent Luo Yuchuan a WeChat message.

-Senior, have you returned yet?

Soon, Luo Yuchuan's message came back: I'm back.

Jiang Miao smiled unconsciously, but immediately felt something was wrong, so she replied, why didn't she contact her?

Thinking about it again, I felt that I didn't ask this question well.

"Have you returned?"——Are you asking about the return journey, or have you already returned?

Looking at Luo Yuchuan's reply in this way, it can also be understood as "I'm back, on the way."

So Jiang Miao sent another message: Are you there yet?

This time Luo Yuchuan replied more concisely, with only one word: Yes.

Jiang Miao felt a little disappointed.

The senior is not enthusiastic at all.

It was obviously not like this when he said yesterday that he would come to pick him up.

After typing a few words in the input field and deleting them, Jiang Miao bit her lip and struggled for a while, but couldn't help asking: Senior, do you miss me?

It took a little longer to reply this time, and it took about two or three minutes before Luo Yuchuan came back.

-A little.

After staring at these three words for a while, Jiang Miao admitted that he was a little disappointed, but he immediately became happy again. The senior is a shy person who is not good at expressing himself, and it is already progress if he can say "a little bit".

"Woo--" The sounding pot in the kitchen screamed, and the water was ready.

Jiang Miao was about to go to the kitchen when there was a knock on the door.

He quickly responded, ran into the kitchen and turned off the fire, and then ran to open the door. As soon as the door opened, he immediately froze.

Luo Yuchuan stood outside the door.

"Senior?" Jiang Miao was surprised and delighted.

Luo Yuchuan didn't answer, he looked a little tired, the sensor lights in the corridor were on, reflecting his eyes like a warm golden light, heavy but softly falling on Jiang Miao.

He looked Jiang Miao up and down for a while, and then his eyes fell on Jiang Miao's face, his expression seemed a little dazed.

Stepping forward and entering the door, Luo Yuchuan slowly raised his hand to caress Jiang Miao's face, and then slowly slid it to Jiang Miao's side neck.

Jiang Miao suddenly felt nervous, he could not help swallowing, and asked nervously, "Senior?"

Luo Yuchuan said softly, "I lied just now."

"Ok?"

"It's not a little bit." Luo Yuchuan put his hand on Jiang Miao's chin again, and his thumb lightly brushed Jiang Miao's lower lip, "I miss you very much."

Bowing his head, he kissed Jiang Miao's lips.
