Lin Jianfan leaned on Gu Chaoming's shoulder and slowly closed his eyes. Gu Chaoming didn't dare to move his entire shoulder and tilted his head slightly. Seeing Lin Jianfan closed his eyes, he had to say that Lin Jianfan's eyelashes were really long.

Lin Jianfan's soft hair rubbed against Gu Chaoming's neck, Gu Chaoming's shoulders did not move, and he looked at Cen Xili and Su Bing across from him.

Cen Xili and Su Bing looked back at him.

"Hey, Lin Jianfan," Gu Chaoming called to him softly, "If you can't drink, don't say you can."

Gu Chaoming raised his hand and gently lifted Lin Jianfan's head, wanting to help Lin Jianfan lie down on the table and sleep for a while, and they thought of a way to send him home.

Gu Chaoming held Lin Jianfan's head with both hands, Lin Jianfan seemed to feel the temperature of Gu Chaoming's fingers, moved his head, and his soft hair rubbed against Gu Chaoming's palm.

When Gu Chaoming thought that Lin Jianfan was completely drunk and was thinking about how to send him home, Lin Jianfan opened his eyes and sat down by himself.

Gu Chaoming looked at Lin Jianfan who was sober with his hands up.

"I'm not drunk, I will drink." Lin Jianfan said.

Lin Jianfan's face wasn't red, but his voice was a little sticky after being drunk.

"And said you're not drunk." Gu Chaoming asked the waiter to bring a bottle of mineral water, unscrewed the cap, and handed it to Lin Jianfan.

"Drink some water first." Gu Chaoming said.

"I'm not drunk, I don't drink." Lin Jianfan pushed away the mineral water that Gu Chaoming handed over.

"Hey" Gu Chaoming quickly took out the mineral water bottle so that he wouldn't spill the ground.

"Drink a little." Gu Chaoming persuaded patiently.

"I don't drink." Lin Jianfan was stubborn.

Gu Chaoming had a whim, took Lin Jianfan's wine glass, poured the rest of the wine into his own wine glass, and then filled Lin Jianfan's wine glass with a glass of water.

Gu Chaoming handed the wine glass filled with water to Lin Jianfan, picked up his own wine glass, and said to Lin Jianfan arrogantly, "Come on, it's done", then picked up his own wine glass, blocked it with his hand, and pretended to drink.

Gu Chaoming just wanted to try tricks and tricks, but this trick actually worked for Lin Jianfan who was drunk. Lin Jianfan saw Gu Chaoming drinking and drank the mineral water in the glass in one gulp.

"Wow," Gu Chaoming made a contrived voice of surprise, "You can drink well, let's have another cup."

Gu Chaoming served Lin Jianfan Man a glass again. Lin Jianfan didn't care whether Gu Chaoming's glass was finished or not. Anyway, when his glass was full, he would drink it.

"Wonderful," Su Bing gave a thumbs up, "Gu Shuai, I didn't expect you to know this."

"It's a shit, I just thought of it suddenly. I didn't expect it to be really useful to Lin Jianfan."

Gu Chaoming felt like he was coaxing a child now. Lin Jianfan didn't look drunk at all, but he acted like a child's temper. Gu Chaoming listened to even coaxing and deceiving, but he didn't listen to serious people.

"It looks like he's really drunk." Cen Xili took the beer left on the table under the table, afraid that Lin Jianfan would drink it again when he saw it.

"What should I do? Gu Shuai." Su Bing asked Gu Chaoming.

Gu Chaoming took out Lin Jianfan's mobile phone from Lin Jianfan's pocket, and wanted to call Lin Jianfan's family and ask them to pick it up. Lin Jianfan's mobile phone had a password, and Gu Chaoming tried to find out Lin Jianfan's mobile phone password, but everything was fine, but when he got the password, Lin Jianfan was extremely uncooperative. Gu Chaoming couldn't. He tried several times without success and could only say: "First ask him where his home is, and then send him home."

"Where do you live?" Gu Chaoming tried to ask Lin Jianfan after speaking.

Lin Jianfan didn't listen, like a child whose parents had taught him not to tell strangers his home address.

"Then can you tell my brother where your home is? My brother will take you home, okay?" Gu Chaoming asked him in the tone of speaking to a child.

"Wow," Su Bing opened his mouth wide and gave a thumbs up again, "Gu Shuai, you are an idiot."

Gu Chaoming couldn't bear to make such a pretentious voice to his classmates. If Lin Jianfan knew that he was like this when he was drunk, he would definitely want to get into the cracks in the ground.

"Lin Jianfan is drunk like a child," Cen Xili said.

Lin Jianfan really looked like a child, Gu Chaoming's tone softened, Lin Jianfan immediately told him the address, and only told him alone.

"I only tell my brother you are alone." Lin Jianfan said.

"Well, well, okay," Gu Chaoming leaned over, "then tell your brother."

Lin Jianfan whispered his home address in Gu Chaoming's ear, his breath sprayed on Gu Chaoming's ear, Gu Chaoming's ear was itchy and moved.

Su Bing and Cen Xili snickered on the opposite side.

"Okay, brother knows, brother will take you home immediately." Gu Chaoming breathed a sigh of relief, and finally gave Lin Jianfan's address.

Gu Chaoming stood up straight and saw Cen Xili and Su Bing who were giggling.

"Brother~" Su Bing said that his brother was full of emotion.

"Oh, my good brother~" Cen Xili followed.

Gu Chaoming looked at them, as if he took advantage of Lin Jianfan's mouth.

Gu Chaoming said, "Don't worry about my mother, why have you been with you recently, Xili? Do you continue to eat or send him home together?"

Su Bing shook his head: "We don't eat, he's already like this, what else can we eat."

"That's it." Gu Chaoming called the waiter to check out.

After paying the bill, Gu Chaoming grabbed Lin Jianfan's arm and dragged him up, hesitating whether to walk with his hand on his shoulder or walk with him.

Before choosing a plan, Lin Jianfan went straight to the door of the store by himself.

"Hey, don't go." Gu Chaoming hurried up to support Lin Jianfan.

"It's not easy for you to be a brother." Su Bing said from behind.

"You didn't come to help either."

Helping Lin Jianfan to stop a taxi at the intersection of the midnight snack street, Gu Chaoming wanted to help Lin Jianfan get on the bus first, but Lin Jianfan refused to get on, so Cen Xili rolled down the car window in the front seat and asked, "What's the matter? "

"I don't know why, he just refused to get in the car." Gu Chaoming said.

After answering Cen Xili, Gu Chaoming felt someone tap his arm. Gu Chaoming turned his head, Lin Jianfan blinked the innocent eyes of a drunken deer, and once again leaned into his ear and said, "I don't want to ride with them, I'll just tell you where my home is."

The breath spread in Gu Chaoming's ear again, Gu Chaoming frowned, this child is not easy to take care of.

"Why don't you guys go back first, and I'll take him back alone." Gu Chaoming said to Cen Xili and Su Bing.

"This..." Cen Xili was a little worried.

"He only asked me to deliver it alone, so let him go." Gu Chaoming whispered to Cen Xili with Lin Jianfan behind his back.

Cen Xili glanced at Lin Jianfan: "Is this still possible?"

"I'm drunk. I treat me as a good brother and you as a bad guy."

Behind him, Lin Jianfan began to poke his arm again, Gu Chaoming waved his hand and told Cen Xili to go back first.

"You should go back early, too. Don't be discovered by your family when it's too late. Anyway, there's no one in my family, and no one cares when I'll go back. I'll take Lin Jianfan back first and then go home." Gu Chaoming said.

"Can you do it alone?" Su Bing was also a little worried.

"It can be done." Gu Chaoming said.

Lin Jianfan seems to be fine now. He doesn't spit or cry, but he can't recognize the person. Su Bing and Cen Xili are afraid that Lin Jianfan will make trouble after they leave. They are afraid that Gu Chaoming can't handle it alone. Lin Jianfan might still be able to control the situation when he returned home, but Gu Chaoming was the only one who knew the address of Lin Jianfan's house.

After confirming again and again that Gu Chaoming could take the drunk Lin Jianfan home alone, Su Bing got in the car.

Gu Chaoming watched the starting taxi drive away in the street lights that stretched on both sides of the broad road. When he turned around, Lin Jianfan was standing quietly behind him, not speaking or looking at him, but lowered his head and stared at the road in a daze.

Lin Jianfan stood there quietly, and he didn't look like a drunk person at all, except for the redness on his face that slowly floated up after drinking, everything else was the same as usual. If Gu Chaoming had just come, he would not have thought about being drunk when he saw him.

Lin Jianfan looked normal on the outside, but as soon as he spoke, he exposed the essence of his drunkenness.

The taxi was leaving, and Gu Chaoming walked up to Lin Jianfan and wanted to call him. I took advantage of others and became their elder brother when they were drunk, so I wanted to call him the little brother

The name popped into his mind, and Gu Chaoming held back his laughter.

Hearing Gu Chaoming's choked laughter, Lin Jianfan looked up at him strangely, and his drunken eyes seemed to ask, "What are you laughing at?"

Gu Chaoming held back his laughter, raised his hand and wrapped his arms around Lin Jianfan's shoulder and said to him, "Nothing to laugh at, my brother will take you home."

There was a smile that could not be concealed in the words.

Lin Jianfan didn't cry, didn't make trouble, and didn't hang himself. The more drunk he became, the quieter he became. Even when he was drunk, he seemed to be easily deceived, and he would go with anyone who said something nice. Gu Chaoming used his brother's identity to deceive him all the way, but he didn't realize it.

It was completely different from Gu Tao who must go crazy when he was drunk. Gu Chaoming leaned on the back of the taxi seat and tilted his head to look at the changing night scene outside the window, thinking of Gu Tao after he was drunk.

The lights were bright at night, and the dots of light slid across the car window. Gu Chaoming turned his head to look at Lin Jianfan, who was still quiet after being drunk.

Sure enough, the behavior of drunk people is based on people. When he was a child, he was ignorant, and Gu Chaoming thought that drunk people were as short-tempered as Gu Tao.

Since Su Bing and Cen Xili left, Lin Jianfan has never been fooling around again, and the scene that Su Bing and Cen Xili were worried about did not appear at all. Lin Jianfan was usually serious, but Gu Chaoming really didn't expect to see Lin Jianfan drunk.

Lin Jianfan sat in the back seat of the taxi, staring straight ahead, not knowing what he was thinking. Perceiving the sight of Gu Chaoming beside him, Lin Jianfan turned his head to meet Gu Chaoming's eyes.

Gu Chaoming didn't take his eyes back when he peeked, but Lin Jianfan blinked and turned his head.

"Do you feel like throwing up?" Gu Chaoming asked.

Lin Jianfan shook his head.

"That's good, don't you feel uncomfortable? Your home is quite far from here, are you sleepy or not, do you want to squint for a while?" Gu Chaoming asked again.

Lin Jianfan shook his head again.

Except for Gu Tao, it was the first time for Gu Chaoming to send a drunk person home. Gu Chaoming's drinking is very controlled, and he never drinks too much, partly because of his strong self-control, partly because he is afraid that he will become another Gu Tao like Gu Tao when he is drunk. Although Gu Chaoming drinks with them, he usually advises them to drink less, not more. Today, Lin Jianfan was quietly drunk while they were not paying attention. Gu Chaoming thought about how he would explain to Lin Jianfan's family when he met him later.

Thinking of the woman who brought him to school when Lin Jianfan was transferred, Lin Jianfan's family should love him very much, and would not blame him or beat him.

"Your family won't talk about you, right?" Gu Chaoming asked.

"No." Lin Jianfan turned to look at Gu Chaoming.

Why does Gu Chaoming feel that as soon as he gets into the car and sees Fan's wine, he almost wakes up? Is it his delusion

Last night, because he was worried about his grades, he didn't sleep well. Lin Jianfan's house was far away from the midnight snack street. The taxi was running smoothly. sleep.

Gu Chaoming blinked, he still had the responsibility, what if Lin Jianfan next to him fell asleep

Gu Chaoming shook his head to drive away the drowsiness that came with the night, and turned to look at Lin Jianfan next to him.

Gu Chaoming looked at him with half-squinted eyes and opened them again: "I see you squinted. If you are really sleepy, why don't you sleep for a while? Anyway, there is still a long way to go from your home."

Lin Jianfan opened his eyes, and Gu Chaoming patted his shoulder: "If you think it's uncomfortable to sleep on the back of the chair, then I'll sacrifice my shoulder and lean on my shoulder."

Gu Chaoming just wanted him to sleep more comfortably, Lin Jianfan blinked his sleepy eyes.

If the drunk Cen Xili was sitting next to him, Gu Chaoming would have just turned his head over and leaned on his shoulder to sleep. Opposite is Lin Jianfan, Gu Chaoming is not so domineering yet.

Lin Jianfan blinked, Gu Chaoming thought he was unwilling, and smiled and said, "Take me not saying it."

Gu Chaoming turned his head to look out the window, it was midnight, and the street lights were carnival, and his shoulders suddenly gained a weight like when drinking and chatting in a late-night snack bar.

Gu Chaoming felt the weight of his shoulders, kept his shoulders still, made a qualified pillow, tilted his head slightly, and saw Lin Jianfan's sleeping face. The eyes with water on weekdays are closed, the eyelashes are well-behaved, and the sleeping is also like a good child.

Seeing that Fan Shen was sleeping, Gu Chaoming turned his head and continued to look at the scenery outside the window, reminding himself that he couldn't sleep.

He thought that Lin Jianfan's obedience would last until he sobered up, but when he arrived at the door of his house, Lin Jianfan suddenly became drunk.

After getting off the car, the journey went smoothly. Lin Jianfan seemed to be clearly leading the way, but the more he walked, the more Gu Chaoming realized that something was wrong.

It's not that the road is not right, it's that Lin Jianfan is not right.

Lin Jianfan began to walk diagonally, and his legs began to soften. He was still muttering something in front of him, but Gu Chaoming couldn't hear it clearly. Just as he was about to ask him "what did you say", Lin Jianfan staggered forward. Falling down, the unsuspecting Gu Chaoming was taken aback.

"You're not going to get home soon, are you getting drunk again?" Gu Chaoming said.

He had never seen anything like this.

Gu Chaoming pulled Lin Jianfan's arm and almost blurted out "Ancestor, can we stop making trouble?"

Fortunately, Lin saw that Fan Jiu's madness wasn't too crazy, but he refused to walk properly. He was always muttering in his mouth, and he couldn't hear what he was talking about in a slurred speech.

Gu Chaoming was still able to control it. He picked up Lin Jianfan who was suddenly weak, put his arm on his shoulder, and controlled Lin Jianfan's shoulder with the other hand to prevent him from running around.

It's really not easy, Gu Chaoming thought that he would hand over Lin Jianfan to his parents later. Lin Jianfan's parents would definitely think that their son was not good at making friends and made him drunk.

Forget it, let them think what they think, it is the most important thing to send Lin Jianfan home now.

Half-holding and half-pulling, Gu Chaoming had to look for Lin Jianfan's house and take care that Lin Jianfan was not drunk.

"Where is your home?" Gu Chaoming said, "point to me."

Lin Jianfan, who could not walk well, raised his hand to point out a direction.

Gu Chaoming led Lin Jianfan towards the direction he pointed: "Don't lie to me."

Gu Chaoming was afraid that Lin Jianfan would just point at random, and that he would not be able to find Lin Jianfan's house.

Lin Jianfan was drunk and didn't want to walk, but referring to his home was still correct.

In order to confirm, Gu Chaoming asked Lin Jianfan again, "Is this your home?"

Lin Jianfan nodded desperately.

Keeping ordering, Gu Chaoming freed one hand to hold Lin Jianfan's head: "Stop ordering, we're home."

Before Gu Chaoming's hand holding Lin Jianfan's head was taken back, Lin Jianfan pressed the doorbell first while Gu Chaoming was not paying attention.

No one came to open the door, Lin saw Fan Jikuang nodded and then frantically rang the doorbell.

Gu Chaoming pulled Lin Jianfan's hand down, the lights finally turned on in the house, and the door opened shortly after.

A woman in pajamas appeared outside the door.

The clothes were different, and there was no makeup, but the aura around her made Gu Chaoming, who could not remember her face, still recognize her at a glance.

When Lin sees Fan, he wants to wipe the sweat of the woman who was rejected by Fan when he transfers.

After the woman opened the door, she saw Lin Jianfan outside the door, and hurried across the yard to open the door for them.

Lin Jianfan, who was resting on his shoulders, saw the woman, and immediately laughed and called out, "Mom."

Really fucking.

"What's the matter? Ah? Why did you sneak out?" The woman's tone was full of anxiety.

Seeing that the woman was so worried, Gu Chaoming explained to the woman embarrassedly: "He drank a little too much, let's have supper together."

Gu Chaoming spoke up, and the woman's eyes finally turned from her son to Gu Chaoming, who was talking.

Sure enough, it was a family. When Lin Jianfan turned around, he quietly looked up and down at Gu Chaoming, who was standing at the penalty stand. Now Lin Jianfan's mother is like his son. Seeing Gu Chaoming who sent Lin Jianfan back, his eyes quickly focused on him. Circling around.

Lin Ma's eyes were much more aggressive than those of Lin Jianfan, perhaps due to her personal temperament.

Lin Ma looked more cautiously than Lin Jianfan, but Gu Chaoming still caught the slightest.

It was uncomfortable to be scrutinized, like scrutinizing, making Gu Chaoming feel like he didn't deserve to be here.

Hope is just his own delusion, Gu Chaoming thought, because after listening to his explanation, Lin Ma was still very enthusiastic about him after taking over Lin Jianfan.

"Thank you for sending him back, we didn't even know he slipped out." Lin Ma said while supporting Lin Jianfan.

"Are you his classmate?" Lin Ma asked.

Gu Chaoming nodded: "Well, yes, sorry, we didn't expect him to be drunk, so he shouldn't be allowed to drink."

"Oh, it's alright, it's alright, just get home safely. It's so late, you see Fan back, can you go home by yourself? Where is your home? Do you want my aunt to escort you?"

Gu Chaoming hurriedly shook his head: "I can go back myself, you can take him in to sleep first, he fell asleep in the car."

Lin Ma looked at her son, and the care and love in her eyes Gu Chaoming felt that they could merge into a river.

"Then Auntie won't send you off. Be careful on your way. Thank you for seeing Fan back."

Gu Chaoming smiled politely: "Then I'll go first."

"Be careful on the way home."

"it is good."

Gu Chaoming nodded, turned and walked away.

Under the quiet moonlight, Gu Chaoming took a few steps and turned back. The woman helped Lin Jianfan into the yard and said something to Lin Jianfan. Gu Chaoming was a little far away and couldn't hear clearly. It should probably be "Why are you still drinking? already?" "Drink so much." "How do you feel?" and so on.

Kicking a small stone beside him, Gu Chaoming suddenly wanted to call Qu Yingyi and listen to Qu Yingyi's voice. It was quiet at night, and Gu Chaoming just thought about it. Qu Yingyi said that he was busy, and Gu Chaoming rarely called to disturb her during this time.

Gu Chaoming kicked away a stone, raised his head and looked up at the night sky.

The galaxy was bright, the breeze came, and a long shadow followed behind Gu Chaoming.

Only a shadow sheet.
