When Gu Chan returned home, it was already completely dark. When he opened the door, the sound of variety shows and the nanny's exaggerated laughter came from the room. Gu Zen saw the new nanny in her twenties lying barefoot on the sofa, holding a large bucket of popcorn in her hand, and there were unpacked potato chips on the table.

Hearing someone coming back, the nanny looked up and saw him, without even getting up, she pointed to the kitchen: "I made you a tomato scrambled egg, and a bowl of millet porridge, heat it up yourself."

Gu Chen silently went to the kitchen to heat up the food, ate salty tomato scrambled eggs, and finally drank half of a bowl of millet porridge, then stood up and put down the bowl and went back to the room. The nanny was still watching the lively variety show. voice, without even looking at him.

In fact, she was not like this when she first came here. When she first accepted this job, she was very enthusiastic about Gu Chan, and would carefully cook every meal and clean the big house spotlessly.

Then she gradually discovered that Gu Chen couldn't speak, like a wooden man, living here alone, no one cares about or asks, even though he lives in such a big and expensive house, she thought about the money that the employer offered her. Salary, some suspect that Gu Zhen is the illegitimate son of a wealthy businessman, and he dare not join the family, so he can only be raised outside. However, this illegitimate son is not very capable, as soft as incompetent, and can't even speak a word.

She slept late in the morning and forgot to get up to make breakfast for Gu Chan. She was frightened for a while, but found that nothing happened at all. She was not fired or deducted wages.

She looked at Gu Chen's pale face, staring at a point in the air with dull eyes, don't think there is something wrong with her mind, she smiled contemptuously.

From then on, she started to intensify and become more unscrupulous. She chose a big room and filled the closet with her own clothes. This place is like her house. It's fine if you can't remember, Gu Chen can only be hungry.

The next day when Gu Zen sat on the seat, a girl blushing secretly put a box of milk and a small bag of bread into Li Yuechen's drawer, seeing Gu Zen put her finger to her mouth and hissed, Then she realized that Gu Zhen's eyes were not on her at all, she straightened up in embarrassment, cursed softly, and trot back to her seat.

As soon as Li Yuechen came, he found that there were many things in his drawer, and there was a pink envelope under the pressure. This time, he didn't dare to guess that it was from Gu Chen. He took out the milk and bread and turned his head. Ask Gu Chen: "I have eaten breakfast, have you eaten?"

It happened that Song Yan entered the door and saw this horrifying scene. He saw Li Yuechen giving milk and bread to Gu Zen with gentle eyes, and what was even more surprising was that Gu Zen really slowly stretched out his hand to take it.

Not to mention Song Yan who was severely impacted by this scene, even Li Yuechen himself was a little surprised. He originally thought that Gu Chen would refuse.

Li Yuechen quietly concealed his surprise just now, and calmly took out his book, but Yu Guang always inadvertently ignored Gu Zen, and Gu Zen was really hungry. He hadn't eaten after the millet porridge. He didn't want to have too much contact with Li Yuechen, or he never planned to have any contact with anyone, but he still stretched out his hand to meet the warm and kind eyes. I took it.

But at this time, he didn't notice that behind him diagonally, Li Xixi, the girl who brought breakfast to Li Yuechen, was watching him with a gloomy expression as he ate the cake she prepared for Li Yuechen bit by bit.

During the break between classes, Li Xixi suddenly walked quickly through the corridor until she reached the entrance of class 20 upstairs. She stood at the door and waved to the boys in the last row. Walked out the back door, "What's the matter? Didn't you say don't bother me if you have nothing to do?" The boy rubbed his fingers, as if he was addicted to cigarettes.

"Brother Zhicheng, do me a favor."

The boy raised his eyebrows after hearing this, "What can you do? You need my help,"

The girl gritted her teeth: "Help me teach someone a lesson, just the little mute in our class."

Luo Zhicheng almost laughed out loud after hearing this: "What's the matter, good girl, that silent lump in your class can piss you off."

"Don't worry about anything, anyway, just tell him not to get in the way of my business with such a blank look, not everyone can eat everything."

"No," Luo Zhicheng finished concisely.

"Why, you were the one who brought a group of people to beat him up last time, so it doesn't matter if you beat him one more time or one less time, not to mention it's for me this time"

"That kid is not a normal person at all. So many people beat him up without making a sound or expression. What's the point of bullying him?" Luo Zhicheng finished speaking impatiently, turned around and wanted to leave.

Li Xixi hurriedly grabbed his sleeve: "Help me, I will give you all my pocket money for this month"

After listening, Luo Zhicheng stopped in his tracks: "Two months."

Li Xixi gritted his teeth: "Okay, deal."

This afternoon, it was the last session of evening self-study, and Li Yuechen was called away by the school team shortly after class. The training volume of the league was about to increase, and the players became nervous.

Before Li Yuechen left, he saw that Gu Zen's seat was still empty, and now it's been ten minutes since class, which is rarely the case for Gu Zen.

Before Li Yuechen had time to think about it, Song Yan urged him to drag him away.

Song Yan, who had been holding back all day on the way to the basketball court, finally couldn't help but ask, "What's going on with you and that little mute?"

"What's going on?" Li Yuechen was still thinking about why Gu Chen hadn't come back yet.

"Hey, I've seen it all. You bought him breakfast. When did you get along so well? It's not that I said you're amazing. He doesn't care about anyone, and he even accepts your things..." Song Yan Still talking to himself.

"I didn't buy that," Li Yuechen said flatly.

"Huh? Who bought that?"

Li Yuechen ignored him and walked quickly to the locker room.

"Hey, why don't you talk, wait for me, you"
