As soon as Chen Xing left the community gate in the morning and turned a corner, Du Keming's face with bruises appeared in front of him without warning.Chen Xing got angry, pushed away the person in front of him and continued walking.

Du Keming reached out and grabbed Chen Xing's schoolbag belt, and asked with a smile from behind, "Say hello."

Chen Xing turned around and knocked off his hand, turned and walked forward without even looking at the person in front of him.Du Keming laughed more flamboyantly behind his back, quickly catching up with Chen Xing and walking side by side.Chen Xing was silent all the way, and he stared at Chen Xing all the way.

Chen Xing was irritated by him, turned his head and was about to speak, but Du Keming immediately rolled his eyes with a smile: "Finally willing to see me?"

Chen Xing stopped and stared at Du Keming for a while, and Du Keming let him watch with a smile.

After a long time, Chen Xing said, "Do we know each other?"

Du Keming nodded: "I just met yesterday."

Chen Xing sneered, "What do you want to do?"

"Let's make friends." The breeze blew, and the young man's hair was a little messy, and some of them curled up against the wind. in front of Xing.

Chen Xing raised his eyes: "The reason."

"You look good."

Chen Xing walked away, but Du Keming hurriedly stopped him: "You study well."

"Oh, I know what you said." Chen Xing opened Du Keming's fingers and said word by word: "Please don't bother me in the future."

Du Keming stood on the spot, staring blankly at Chen Xing's back. After a while, he chuckled lightly: "I'm so bad, I don't even want to take a second look."

"Chen Xing, you can save me." As soon as Chen Xing stepped into the classroom, Xu Xin hung on Chen Xing like a koala, howling like a koala.

With Xu Xin hanging on his body, Chen Xing walked up to the seat stiffly, grabbed Xu Xin's arm and pulled it down. Seeing Xu Xin's aggrieved expression, Chen Xing couldn't help laughing: "What's wrong?"

Xu Xin cried and said, "My mother wants to enroll me in cram school."

"Aren't you always on?"

"I used to make up one day on Sundays, and I didn't need to make up on Saturdays. But my mother said that my grades were not good enough, so I insisted on using Saturdays to make up lessons."

Xu Xin's grades are actually not bad. He is considered average in the third middle school. Every time he is more than 100, he can pass a similar 211 test if he persists. However, Xu Xin's mother has strict requirements on her son. She has been talking about letting her son He got into the top [-] in the exam, and he never stopped taking various supplementary classes. Chen Xing never attended a cram school, and he felt a headache even after reading it.

"I'll go to your house and tell your mother not to report it to you?"

Xu Xin laughed: "No, I told my mother to ask you to make it up for me."

Chen Xing raised his eyebrows: "Your mother agreed? How do you calculate the tuition fee?"

"My mother must be happy. I'm afraid you don't have time. If you ask for a price, I'll pay."

"Get out, I'm missing your money. If you can enter the top [-] in the college entrance examination, I won't charge you for extra tuition. If you can't, send me the signed photo of your Jay Chou."

Xu Xin gritted his teeth and nodded, gritted his teeth: "Okay." Signed photos are just signed photos. For freedom, everything is worth it.

Chen Xing thought for a while, and said to Xu Xin: "You help me check someone, Du Keming."

"Who?"

"The boss of the group at the school gate yesterday."

"Did he mess with you?"

"No, you can just check."

Zhou Chen was going to be on duty in the office at noon, so Chen Xing went home and ordered a takeaway. Zhou Chen slept late last night and stayed in the study until the early hours of the morning.Chen Xing pushed open the door of the study and went in. The desk was empty. He opened the side drawer, and the Chinese papers lay quietly inside. Chen Xing took it out, and there was a notebook underneath. It's the annotations of the classical Chinese essays, the common sense of ancient culture, which is more detailed than any tutorial book, and it was written by Zhou Chen last night.

Chen Xing lowered his eyes, thinking of Zhou Chen's seldom lying in bed in the morning, thinking of the bloodshot eyes under his eyes, thinking of his dark circles, it was all because of him, but why didn't this man say anything, he told himself that he had business to deal with , He said that he would not be tired, and he got up early to prepare breakfast for himself, and said with a smile, "Good morning, boyfriend." He must be very tired.

Tears fell drop by drop on the floor in front of him, Chen Xing stood quietly, raised his head for a long time, except for the red tip of his nose, there was no trace of crying just now.

Chen Xing paused when he was about to put the notebook back into the drawer. Inside the drawer lay a few sketches, all of which showed the same boy lying on the hospital bed frowning, squatting The picture of the balcony smiling and petting Ergou, the picture of him eating quietly with a bowl in his hand, the picture of him standing outside the teacher's office with his head down, the picture at the bottom is the boy sitting on the bench of the police station and nodding his head The look of smoke.

Each picture is very vivid and of a high standard. Chen Xing never knew that Zhou Chen could draw, and he could draw so well.

Behind each painting is the words:

"Help me block the knife, it hurts, I'm sorry, I couldn't protect you well."

"You look so pretty when you smile. I hope I can always be with you and make you so happy."

"It's been a long time since no one has eaten with me, so don't leave, and don't leave anyway."

"Am I fierce, am I ugly, why would you rather look at the ground than look at me?"

"At first glance, hello, sweetheart."

What's so good about me, how can I deserve this from you.No one wants a child, why are you like a treasure? With such strong feelings, you should let me know, you should let me know how much you like me, you should let me know that your feelings are surging in the dark, stronger than mine There is much more to see.

It turns out that there will really be such a person who appears in your life by accident, takes you to see all the good things in this world, and then builds a shelter for you in his heart, coaxing you with gentle words You nestled in his heart and fell asleep, and gave you all of him without reservation, wholeheartedly, until death.

Chen Xing put everything back into the drawer in silence, closed the study door, sat on the sofa and started to daze.After a while, he took out his mobile phone and sent Zhou Chen a message: "Have you eaten yet? Are you tired today?"

Zhou Chen immediately came back: "I'm not tired from the stewed chicken and rice. Is the class at school difficult?"

"If I say it's difficult, then other people can't live. It's not difficult. I ate noodles with fried sauce at noon, and I went home early in the evening. I cook, what do you want to eat?"

"Is there a lot of homework?"

"Not much, I do my homework very quickly."

"I want to drink lotus seed porridge."

"······The request is really simple, go to work in the afternoon, I love you, (a kiss expression)"

"Love you, (a kiss expression)"

In the afternoon, when Xu Xin saw Chen Xing, he was speechless.Chen Xing hooked his fingers towards Xu Xin, and Xu Xin immediately stood in front of Chen Xing cowardly.

Chen Xing raised his chin: "Speak."

Xu Xin: "...that Du Keming is from No. [-] Middle School."

"······" Anyone with long eyes can tell that the guy is wearing a No. [-] Middle School uniform. Do you need to remind me, ah!

Chen Xing took a deep breath and smiled stiffly: "Get to the point."

"School No. [-], do you know the Andu Group, just my dad's company, the one that engages in real estate."

"Well, I heard."

Xu Xin took a deep breath: "It was opened by their family."

Chen Xing nodded: "Understood, is there any more?"

Xu Xin hesitated to speak: "Chen Xing, are you sure you haven't offended anyone?"

"how?"

"I also inquired about you a few days ago..."

Chen Xing silently looked at the vocabulary book in front of him, and always felt that Du Keming might be a fool.He searched hard in his memory for someone surnamed Du, and finally shook his head seriously at Xu Xin who looked worried.

Chen Xing went to the supermarket first after school and bought white fungus, red dates, lotus seeds and rice. Remembering that Zhou Chen's house didn't have white sugar, he went back to get white sugar.He walked quickly all the way, and when he entered the door, he threw his schoolbag on the sofa and began to roll up his sleeves to wash rice.

At eight o'clock, Chen Xing glanced at his watch. The porridge was almost ready. Zhou Chen should be back at this time. Chen Xing waited impatiently. As soon as he dialed the phone, he heard the sound of the key turning in the lock.Standing at the door, Zhou Chen picked up his mobile phone and smiled at Chen Xing: "Are you in a hurry?"

Chen Xing stood up, looked at Zhou Chen with a smile, then paused, his face sank, he rushed to Zhou Chen and pulled down his collar to look at Zhou Chen's neck.

Zhou Chen smiled and grabbed his hand: "It's okay."

A bloody scratch stretched from behind the ear to above the collarbone, and blood continued to ooze from the inside.Chen Xing felt that his whole heart hurt like someone was grabbing him.

He looked at the scratch, and his voice was as cold as the cold winter of Sanjiu, "Who made it?"

Zhou Chen kissed Chen Xing on the forehead, patted him on the back and said softly: "It's okay, it's just that the two families got into a fight in a neighborhood dispute, and I accidentally injured them during the fight. It doesn't hurt, don't worry."

Chen Xing touched it lightly with his hand, and Zhou Chen hissed.

Chen Xing felt that his voice was trembling: "Does this mean it doesn't hurt? Which fucking idiot made it so that I wouldn't smash his house."

"Okay, okay, don't be angry anymore." Zhou Chen held Chen Xing in his arms and patted his back to comfort him: "You know, those people fight very shamelessly, and our colleagues often get hurt, it really doesn't hurt. "

Chen Xing clutched the corner of Zhou Chen's clothes, his voice trembling: "Zhou Chen, my heart aches, I am such a precious person, I usually don't want to use my strength when kissing, how can I let others hurt like this."

Zhou Chen was stunned for a moment, and kissed Chen Xing's face delicately. Zhou Chen held Chen Xing's face, looked at Chen Xing's red eyes and said seriously: "I'm sorry, I made you worry, there is no protection." Well, it's my fault for your boyfriend, and I won't do it in the future, really."

"you promise."

"I promise."

Chen Xing leaned forward and kissed Zhou Chen's lips, his voice became a little nasal: "Let's eat, the porridge is ready."

"Forget it, don't eat it yet, you need to deal with this wound, don't let me meet any idiot, next time I will..."

"Okay, okay, don't be angry, let's eat first, the porridge is cold."

"Chen Xing, are you free tonight?" Xu Xin lay in front of Chen Xing with a lollipop in his mouth.

Chen Xing wrote a math booklet without looking up and asked, "What's the matter?"

"It's my mother who let you go to my house for dinner."

"Thank you, Auntie, for me. I won't go."

"Don't, my mother said that she would like to thank you for making up my lessons, and to show their sincerity, I promised her that she would take you back at night."

Chen Xing raised his head and looked at Xu Xin speechlessly: "How old are you?"

Xu Xin was taken aback, and it took him a while to realize what Chen Xing was talking about.

"Hu Xinyi gave it, do you want it?"

Chen Xing shook his head firmly: "No."

"Come home with me tonight?"

"Well, let your mother prepare less dishes."

After Xu Xin left, Chen Xing took out his phone from his pocket and sent Zhou Chen a message: "Does the wound still hurt?"

Zhou Chen replied almost instantly: "It doesn't hurt, it's fine."

"I'm going to Xu Xin's house for dinner tonight, can you eat outside by yourself?"

"Don't you want me? Why are you going to Xu Xin's house for dinner (crying emoticon)"

"... If you are not obedient, I don't want you. I need to make up lessons for Xu Xin. Xu Xin's mother asked me to have a meal. Be good, eat outside by yourself, eat something light, and the wound will heal quickly."

"Then you remember to miss me."

"I think about it all the time, I love you."

"Love you."

As soon as Chen Xing and Xu Xin entered Xu Xin's house, Xu Xin's mother warmly greeted her and said angrily, "Xiao Xing, you haven't been here for a long time, and you don't even miss Auntie."

After changing his slippers, Chen Xing smiled at Xu Xin's mother: "I've been busy recently, so I can't take care of it. I miss you a lot. Where's Uncle?"

"It's in the kitchen, Lao Xu, come out quickly, Xiaoxing is here."

Father Xu came out of the kitchen wearing an apron, holding a plate of fruit in his hand, and smiled when he saw Chen Xing: "Xiaoxing, you are here, come and sit quickly, come and eat some fruit."

Xu Xin, who was left alone the whole time: "..."

Xu Xin's mother kept adding food to Chen Xing's bowl, Chen Xing gave Xu Xin a wink, Xu Xin immediately stopped his mother: "Mom, enough is enough, let Chen Xing finish eating."

Xu Xin's mother smiled: "Xiaoxing, how is the food?"

Chen Xing stopped his chopsticks and said with a smile, "It's delicious. I've liked it since I was a child."

Chen Xing's family and Xu Xin's family used to be neighbors. When Chen Xing was a child, he spent a lot of time at Xu Xin's house. Xu's mother and Xu's father liked Chen Xing since they were young. At that time, Chen Xing might be pitiful. Go back to your own home for dinner.When he grew up, Chen Xing was even more likable. He was good in everything he studied, and the key was that he was very well-behaved in front of his elders. Mother Xu was more willing to let Xu Xin and Chen Xing get closer.

Xu's mother held the bowl and ate, and then began to say: "The child who grew up together, Xiaoxing is so good at studying, why is Xu Xin so far behind you?"

Chen Xing had no choice but to bite the bullet and chat awkwardly: "Auntie, Xu Xin is very good, very down-to-earth."

"What's the use of being down-to-earth? The key is being too stupid. It's also thanks to having a friend like you who can help him."

"Auntie, it should be."

Xu Xin's mother looked at Xu Xin's father, hesitated and said, "Well, Xiaoxing."

Chen Xing looked up: "Auntie, tell me."

"It's like this. Your uncle has a friend whose son is the same age as you. He is a sophomore in another school. His father knows that you are good at studying. A few days ago, after knowing that Uncle Xu knew you, let us ask you. , to see if you are willing to help his son make up a lesson, the price is up to you, Auntie thinks I can make it up with Xu Xin, so let your uncle agree to ask you, what do you think?"

Chen Xing didn't say a word, Xu Xin became anxious first: "Mom, why are you like this, Chen Xing is also very tight on time, he has to take the college entrance examination, and he will also be tired."

Chen Xing gently touched Xu Xin's leg under the table, looked at Xu's mother and said:

"Auntie, it's like this. It's okay to take tutoring with Xu Xin. I don't need to charge tuition fees, but I still suggest that the family find a one-on-one tutor. I will give Xu Xin a lecture. I know his weakness is Where, I know him well, and I am patient with him, but for a stranger, I am not so sure, you ask Uncle Xu's friend to think about it again, if he thinks there is no problem, then there is no problem on my side."

Xu's mother responded again and again: "Okay, it's good if you agree, I will ask him later."

When Xu Xin sent Chen Xing out, he kept pulling his face, and Chen Xing was amused by him: "What's wrong with you?"

Xu Xin scratched her hair depressedly: "I'm sorry, my mother didn't tell me about this before, did you make things difficult for you?"

"It's good if you know it. I don't care about it if you treat me to a pancake tomorrow."

Xu Xin hugged Chen Xing vigorously: "Oh, why are you so nice."

"Let go, be careful that Zhou Chen beats you."

Xu Xin let go of his hands in horror: "Is your boyfriend so scary?"

Chen Xing poked Xu Xin's forehead: "I don't know, you can try."
