Zhan Ming pressed the call button, and Gu Qinan's cheerful voice immediately came from the other end of the phone.
"Brother Zhan, what are you doing? I'm waiting for you to say good night, why didn't you reply to my message? I've been waiting for you for ten minutes, I'm so sleepy... "
Zhan Ming was pulled back from the daze of nowhere to go, back to the hot summer night.
In fact, the front and rear street lights are very bright, the street at ten o'clock is still full of people, and even the signboard of the Express Hotel is lit not far in front.
"I..." Zhan Ming paused, he wanted to pretend that nothing happened, and said goodnight as usual, but found that he couldn't say it.
Gu Qinan was still waiting for him to say good night on the other end of the phone.
It turns out that there are still people in this world who need him to say good night, and then he can go to sleep.
"I moved out." Zhan Ming said, "I had a fight with my cousin. I'm sorry, I moved out."
Forty minutes later, Gu Qinan stood panting in front of the single room of the Express Hotel with his large schoolbag on his back, and said to Zhan Ming, "My parents are waiting below, and I want to invite you to stay at our house first at night."
Something blocked Zhan Ming's throat, making him speechless.
As soon as he said he moved out, Gu Qinan was very anxious. He had to briefly explain that his uncle and aunt quarreled over his money, Zhan Rui was angry, and he couldn't help hitting Zhan Rui. He didn't tell Gu Qinan what Zhanrui said, there is no need to let Gu Qinan know.
Although he respects homosexuality, he is not.
Don't add to his troubles.
Gu Qinan was very excited and immediately said that he would come to him. He said no, but Gu Qinan hung up the phone and said fifteen minutes later that he was already on his way.
His father drove him here. For the sake of one of his son's classmates, he drove back and forth at night and invited him to live at their house.
Sure enough, they are Xiao Nanzai's parents.
But he didn't want to go and couldn't.
He wanted to be on his own, and he didn't want to be a problem for others.
Gu Qinan didn't wait for an answer, and said to himself, "I told them, your room is open, isn't it a waste of money to keep going? Come to my house tomorrow!"
After speaking, he walked directly into Jin Ming's room, closed the door, took out his mobile phone and called his parents, saying that he was staying with Zhan Ming at night.
Gu Qinan did it so fast that Zhan Ming didn't even react. He had already run to the door of the hotel room, and had already asked his parents to go back.
After Zhan Ming checked in, he only turned on the corridor lights and ceiling lights, put down his luggage, and stayed for half an hour.
As soon as Gu Qinan came, he turned on all the switches first, and the room was suddenly much brighter. He walked in, looked around curiously, put his schoolbag on the only tea table, sat down on the small soft chair, and asked, "What's the matter? Did they bully you?"
As soon as Gu Qinan appeared, Zhan Ming felt that the heaviness was much reduced.
He thought it was funny that Gu Qinan used the word "bully".
Bully
Apart from grandma, this is the first time anyone has worried that he, who is 1.9 meters tall, will be bullied.
Zhan Ming shook his head: "No."
Gu Qinan stood up anxiously: "I must have bullied you, otherwise why would you be so angry that you moved out? They all took your grandma's house, why do they still want to take your money? You earned it by working, it was very hard work. They are adults, they, why are they so hateful! They are so bad to you, I'm going to sue them!"
Gu Qinan was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Zhan Ming smiled: "Don't be angry."
Gu Qinan was surprised: "Aren't you angry?"
Zhan Ming shook his head: "I can't talk about being angry, I don't know how to say it."
Because this kind of quarrel has happened too many times, since his uncle took the money from his card, Zhan Ming has not been too angry, but just feels tired and tired.
Gu Qinan didn't understand: "But they are so hateful! My father said that your grandma's house and money, you are also the heir, and have the right to inherit. We can sue them and get back what belongs to you!"
Zhan Ming came over, pressed Gu Qinan's shoulder, and let him sit on the soft chair. Zhan Ming squatted down, looked Gu Qinan's eyes flat, and said, "Don't be angry, many things are unclear."
"What's not clear about this? When it comes to the court, the legal provisions are clear and clear! Now that you are a senior in high school, you have no time to file a lawsuit. We can wait for the college entrance examination next year to sue them! You will be an adult next year, no? I need a guardian!"
"I've already moved out, forget it." Zhan Ming said simply.
Gu Qinan was still very angry: "Why forget it? Can't forget it! They bully people too much!"
Zhan Ming looked at his blushing cheeks, and the depression that had entangled him all night was suddenly swept away.
Someone cares about him so much.
The corners of Zhan Ming's mouth rose slightly, and Gu Qinan was about to die of anger: "You're still laughing!"
Zhan Ming leaned over and pressed his head down slightly with his hand, making Gu Qinan's forehead touch his.
"Treasure." Zhan Ming said softly, "You are very happy, you have never worried about money, you don't understand this feeling."
Gu Qinan didn't move, feeling that the place where he touched Zhan Ming's forehead was hot.
Soon, Zhan Ming let go of him, stood up, retreated to the bed and sat down.
"A lot of things are unclear. My grandma brought me up from childhood, and she did spend most of her time, energy and money on me. She only has a little pension, and she basically spends it on me, buying delicious food. , buy toys…”
Zhan Ming paused, took the cardboard box on the bedside table, and opened it.
Inside are Lego bricks, a bit old.
Zhan Ming picked up the building blocks, looked at them, and continued: "Lego is very expensive, I like it very much, but only this set cost my grandma's pension for almost a month. She saved it for a long time and bought it for me on her birthday. Yes. She didn't buy them for Zhan Rui, and every time Zhan Rui came, she put it away, for fear that Zhan Rui would break it for me."
"When my grandma was sick, my uncle paid for the medical bills and hospital bills, and the medical insurance could be reported, but they still spent tens of thousands of dollars. So later he took my card, and I didn't want the money back. I just ... I hope he can ask me for it himself, instead of stealing it, and then tell me... "
Gu Qinan stood up, walked to Zhan Ming and sat down, leaning against him.
"They have quarreled many times about my affairs and money. I feel very tired, but not angry. I understand the feeling of worrying about money, it's very uncomfortable." Zhan Ming slowly spoke of his feelings that did not match his age.
"When grandma left, relatives said they wanted to help me contact my mother and let her pick me up. It was my uncle who stood up and said that grandma told him to bring me to adulthood and let me go home with him."
"I'm very grateful to him, really, thank him to this day."
"Everyone has their own business. Who cares about others? Even my own mother doesn't care about me. When my dad died, she left and never came to see me. Grandma said she might remarry, Now that I have a child, let me not go to her, it is unreliable."
"Afterwards, I got into a fight and I was hospitalized. In the end, my uncle also paid for the hospitalization and compensation. So they didn't really take the money from the card and spent it on me. After that , my aunt has a lot of opinions on me, she thinks I'm just a little bastard, and I'm afraid I'll ruin Zhan Rui..."
Zhan Ming said sentence by sentence, slowly saying what he had never said to anyone.
These words weighed in his heart, and he couldn't breathe.
Gu Qinan didn't expect that the cool brother Zhan, the awesome brother Zhan, the brother Zhan who can do everything, had so many words hidden in his heart.
Gu Qinan still thinks Brother Zhan's uncle's family is hateful, because they are adults, they are adults. And although Brother Zhan is very cool, he is only a seventeen-year-old student.
Gu Qinan couldn't help standing up, stretched out his hands, and hugged Brother Zhan tightly.
Brother Zhan's thorny head rested in his arms, he put his chin on Brother Zhan's head, and hugged Brother Zhan tightly with both hands.
"Pity, pity..."
Gu Qinan read a nursery rhyme.
"Shake, shake, cherish, cherish..."
Zhan Ming also stretched out his hand and hugged Gu Qinan's waist tightly.
Gu Qinan is very thin and has a thin waist.
After a while, Zhan Ming pushed Gu Qinan's hug away first, and said with a smile, "Take me as a child?"
Gu Qinan sat back on the bed again, next to Zhan Ming, and said, "Then what are you going to do? There's no place to live."
Zhan Ming didn't take it seriously: "Tomorrow, I will apply for accommodation with Lao Zhang. Let's live in the school until the end of the college entrance examination."
Gu Qinan opened his eyes wide: "Do you want accommodation?"
"School accommodation is cheap, only 200 yuan per semester." Zhan Ming said realistically, "The conditions are okay."
Hearing this, Gu Qinan asked, "Do you still have any money on you? I can lend it to you, don't worry about paying it back."
Zhan Ming patted his head: "Yes, I saved a little, not much, but there is no problem with supporting it until next year."
"Oh." Gu Qinan nodded reassuringly, looked at the time, it was almost eleven o'clock, and exclaimed, "God, it's almost eleven o'clock! I haven't slept so late in a long time! But I'm not sleepy at all now, I'm so excited, what should I do?"
As soon as Gu Qinan received Zhanming's call, he immediately packed his schoolbag and wanted to take a taxi to accompany Zhanming. He had never done this before. He was startled by his parents, asked about the situation, and immediately said that he would drive him here, and that he would let Zhanming stay at their house for a few days.
Running all the way to the hotel, Gu Qinan has been in a state of tension and worry.
It's getting late now, and the sleepiness is gone.
"Order a takeaway, I'm a little hungry." Zhan Ming said, turning on his phone.
Gu Qinan was not hungry, but he had never ordered takeout before going to bed, so he approached it novelly and watched it for a long time.
Zhan Ming ordered finger cake and milk tea.
When the takeout arrives, the hand-pulled biscuits are warm and fragrant as soon as they are opened. Zhan Ming let him take a few bites, and the milk tea also let him drink two.
Gu Qinan said, "I don't drink anymore, I don't drink anymore, I won't be able to fall asleep later", while looking at Zhan Ming drinking milk tea, seeing that Zhan Ming couldn't drink it, he handed it to him again.
The two of you took a sip and I drank a cup of milk tea.
While sleeping, Gu Qinan found a stain on the bed sheet and was startled.
Inexpensive express hotel, no good health service.
Zhan Ming took out his black T-shirt from his luggage, spread it on the sheets, and let Gu Qinan sleep on it.
Zhan Ming's clothes are very large, Gu Qinan is lying on it, the clothes are almost to his knees.
Gu Qinan muttered: "Why are you so big..."
Zhan Ming turned off the lights, and the room was pitch black.
Gu Qinan grabbed Zhan Ming's arm and said, "Oh, this muscle, beat that Zhan Rui to death."
Zhan Ming thought it was funny, but let him hold on to it.
Gu Qinan moved to his side, leaned his cheek against his shoulder, and asked in a low voice, "Brother Yuan and Brother Bin know?"
"I haven't told them yet." Zhan Ming replied.
Gu Qinan knew it was wrong, but he laughed secretly in the dark.
Brother Zhan was the first to tell him.
He was also the first to accompany Brother Zhan.
