The room fell into silence.
Mr. Ji, who has always been calm, was inexplicably nervous when facing this child. Every moment of waiting for Shen Cheng to speak was like a slow execution. He has a prominent position, and several generations can't spend it all. Money, but in front of Shen Cheng, he is just an incompetent father, he has nothing, and even asked a little cautiously: "Is your name... Shen Cheng?"
The boy looked at him and called out in a deep voice, "Mr. Ji."
Ji Yuansheng's body tensed up. He was both disappointed and expected by this title. He naturally understood that after more than ten years of separation, no child would accept him so quickly. Facing this child, even if he is not warm to him , But he felt a kind of affection from the bottom of his heart: "You don't need to call me Mr. Ji, if you are not used to calling me Dad, you can call me Uncle."
Shen Xiangxiang met a stranger who was not very familiar with him, and looked at him with strange eyes: "Uncle Ji."
"Um… "
Ji Yuansheng looked at him, as if he couldn't get enough of it. The neon lights of the bustling streets were flashing outside, but he only had Shen Cheng in his eyes. The man with a strong character who said nothing but hesitantly reached out to touch Shen Cheng's hair, but When he was about to touch it, the boy turned his face away to avoid it.
Shen Cheng raised his eyelids and looked at him. Although he didn't say a word, his eyes were full of alienation.
He is on guard and against himself.
Ji Yuansheng withdrew his hand, although he was frustrated but not angry, he made a habitual decision: "The driver's car is downstairs, and I will go back with my father later."
Shen Cheng raised his eyebrows: "Go back?"
Ji Yuansheng nodded, fearing that the child would feel insecure, he said a few more words: "You are father's child, so naturally you want to go back together. You have everything at home, so you can rest assured that it will be better than..."
He hesitated for a moment, with some pity: "It will be better than the environment you stayed in before. You don't have to go back to that place in the future. Come home with me, and I will prepare a room for you to rest."
Shen Cheng stood beside the green plants, behind him was the endless night, dark clouds covered the sky and covered the sun, and he could not see the light of the sky. He glanced at Ji Beichuan not far away, and smiled ironically: "Is this place a guest room?" ?”
Ji Yuansheng was taken aback.
He turned his head following Shen Cheng's gaze, and saw Ji Beichuan standing behind him. That child was no longer as arrogant and domineering as before, only restless and restless, standing there alone seemed a little fragile.
Ji Beichuan clenched the hand placed by his side tightly. Seeing that Ji Yuansheng was looking at him, he called out, "Father."
Ji Yuansheng said: "Beichuan"
The tall man was full of majesty, and he said in a teaching tone as usual: "I am no longer your father."
Ji Beichuan was shocked.
This is a fact that he has known for a long time, but when Ji Yuansheng said it, it seemed as if it was pressed down by a jack, which made him breathless.
He took a few deep breaths, his eyes were red, and he called out stubbornly: "But I don't know them, and I don't want to be with them. Father, don't send me away, okay? I will be obedient!"
There was no unnecessary expression on Ji Yuansheng's cold face, but his frown did not loosen.
Ji Beichuan also saw the current situation clearly, he stepped forward and said to Shen Cheng: "Shen Cheng, can you forgive me for what happened before, don't worry, I don't mind having you in the house, my toys and everything Give you half, I will listen to you in the future, I know you are kind-hearted, you are willing to teach other students to do their homework, you are willing to help students with injured feet, you must also be willing to help me, right?"
Shen Cheng was expressionless and didn't bother to cooperate with his performance.
But Ji Beichuan thought there was something to be done, so he jumped over and grabbed Shen Cheng's hand and begged, "Can you just say something, are you so cruel that you won't let me go?"
There was a buzzing noise in his ears, Shen Cheng frowned impatiently, the boy's patience was exhausted, he waved away Ji Beichuan's hand, looked at him with gloomy eyes, and said in a low voice, "Let you go?"
"Did you let me go?"
Shen Cheng's face was pale, he didn't try to suppress others, but his momentum was inexplicably strong: "Leaving this city, you clearly know where Gao Can will take me to move."
That's a big mountain.
Where can one say anything about the future
Killing others for one's own selfish desires, but in turn demanding that others must be kind and righteous. There is no such reason in this world.
Ji Beichuan's face turned pale immediately: "That's not the case..."
Shen Cheng: "What kind of thing is that?"
"I, I..." Ji Beichuan raised his head and looked at Ji Yuansheng in a panic: "Father, I don't think that way, I just want them to live in other cities, and I have already made up my mind that if their family moves, I will give them a sum of money." , I, I didn't mean to."
Ji Yuansheng hesitated for a moment.
Because of his pause and hesitation, a very ironic smile appeared on the corner of Shen Cheng's mouth. Before Ji Yuansheng finished speaking, Shen Cheng had already walked out. He passed by Ji Beichuan and was crying for poor Ji Beichuan He met Shen Cheng's eyes, they were a pair, and he looked like a clown under his eyes.
It was as if the things he cared about were not worth mentioning to Shen Cheng.
He is like a caged beast struggling in a cage, while Shen Cheng is the one in charge who holds the power of life and death and stands outside watching him flopping indifferently.
…
Seeing that Shen Cheng had already left, Ji Yuansheng chased him out, but when he went downstairs, he met Zhen Meili who was walking towards him. The woman seemed to be coming for him.
Zhen Meili stood still and stopped Ji Yuansheng: "Mr. Ji."
Ji Yuansheng stopped and looked at her.
"Although this is your housework, I can't say anything, but let's give Shen Cheng some time." Zhen Meili stepped on her high heels with a faint smile: "Everything happened too suddenly today, I think he needs time too Go think about it, it happens that our Xiaopang and Shen Cheng have a good relationship, and they have been in contact with each other before, if you don't worry, the child will rest at my house temporarily today."
Ji Yuansheng still has some respect for the woman in front of him, but after thinking for a while, he nodded: "Then I will trouble you."
Zhen Meili glanced sideways at Ji Beichuan who was not far away, and smiled with her lips curled up: "Although we haven't been together for a long time, I still know a little about that child Shen Cheng. If you can't handle this child properly, you should It may be difficult to ease the relationship with Shen Cheng."
Ji Yuansheng obviously thought of this too.
He frowned, as if hesitating, the situation of Gao Can's family was obvious to all, Ji Beichuan made all kinds of mistakes and finally raised him for more than ten years, it is not easy to say that he was really pushed into the fire pit.
Zhen Meili didn't urge her, she just said: "This matter is not in a hurry, Mr. Ji still has a lot of things to consider, but..."
The woman's smile was somewhat cold: "He is Youyou's last flesh and blood. I don't care what you do with Ji Beichuan, but if Shen Cheng is wronged, I won't just watch."
Ji Yuansheng straightened his back, and the man in suit and leather shoes regained his dignity and dignity. He said, "Ms. Zhen is worrying too much. Don't you think I can't take care of Shen Cheng with my ability?"
Zhen Meili looked at him, with a cold smile in her eyes, and she said: "I gave you the baby back then, Mr. Ji."
One sentence left the man speechless.
Zhen Meili turned around and left. She had already agreed with Shen Cheng outside to go to their house to sleep temporarily for the night. It would be fine to drive back right now. The time was already close to 10 o'clock in the evening, and she fell into a coma on the way back Drowsy, but finally woke up by the phone ringing.
Jian Shiwu opened his sleepy eyes, and the first thing he saw was Shen Cheng who was also sitting at the back. He was leaning on the back cushion and looking out the window, his expression was somewhat unclear.
Zhen Meili hung up the phone and turned around: "When I was young, Mom and Dad have something to do, I'm afraid they may not be home tonight."
Jian Shiwu was surprised: "Mom, what's wrong?"
Shen Cheng also looked forward.
Zhen Meili glanced at the boy's expression through the mirror, suppressed the sigh in her heart and said, "It's nothing serious, you two can go home and rest."
Jane Shiwu keenly sensed that something was wrong.
Shen Cheng was much smarter than him, so he sat up a little bit straighter and said, "Is it about Gao Can?"
Zhen Mei tightened her hand on the steering wheel, she was silent for a while, and then said: "It's okay, Shen Cheng, let auntie and uncle handle this matter."
The street lights outside are bright, and the driveway is still brightly lit late at night.
The woman said earnestly; "Auntie knows that you are very smart and understands many things. She wants to deal with it by herself, but this is an adult's business. This is a problem that parents have to solve. Maybe you always want to rely on yourself. To deal with it, Auntie knows that you are very capable, but no matter how powerful you are, it will be a matter of the future. Now you are only 14 years old, and you are still a child. We adults will end the grievances and grievances of adults. In the past, you may have no one to rely on, but Auntie will not let you be wronged if she is here today."
Shen Cheng slightly curled up his hands resting on the edge of the cushion, and finally there were obvious emotional fluctuations in those dark eyes.
Zhen Meili was afraid that she was being serious again, so she said in relief: "Of course, don't feel pressured, maybe you don't know, many years ago, the relationship between your aunt and your mother was very close, and we had an appointment at that time, if If you give birth to a boy and a girl, make a baby kiss, if there are two boys, then I will be your godmother after you are born!"
Jian Shiwu was shocked: "Mom, I don't even know, you never told me."
It was obviously not like this in the previous life. At that time, it seemed that Gao Can came to his parents after losing a lot of money in gambling, and he was obsessed with Shen Cheng, who couldn't even go to school, and spoiled his mother, so he really engaged in a marriage contract.
How to be reborn once, everything changed
"What else do you know but fooling around?"
The car drove into the community, and finally stopped downstairs. Jian Shiwu and Shen Cheng got out of the car. Xiaopang wanted to go to the front to open the gate, and Shen Cheng walked behind. He heard Zhen Meili's voice with gentleness. Call him from behind: "Child"
Shen Cheng's steps stopped. A smile appeared on the corner of Zhen Meili's mouth, and she said softly, "Don't worry, get a good night's sleep. Since I promised your mother to be your godmother, I will take good care of you. If your mother is not here, I will be your mother." , don't put such a big burden on yourself, and you can relax a little bit, and leave this matter to Auntie to decide for you, okay?"
Call the shots for you.
The simple four words seem to have broken the last wall in Shen Cheng's heart. In the long river of years, no matter how much wronged he has suffered, no matter how much bitterness he has endured, he is the only one. , No one turned to him, no one helped him.
There is a cool night wind blowing from a distance, and the early summer wind has its unique romance.
Shen Cheng's body tensed up, as if trying to endure something, his voice was a little hoarse, and he finally responded in a low voice: "Thank you."
Zhen Meili's eyes were filled with tenderness, and she smiled.
Not far away, Xiaopang opened the door, and the living room revealed a warm yellow light. He stood at the door, stood in the light, and waved to Shen Cheng, jumping like a little penguin: "Representative, there are mosquitoes outside, hurry up!" Come in!"
Shen Cheng looked back at him helplessly.
Zhen Meili couldn't laugh or cry: "Go, help me take care of him."
Shen Cheng nodded slightly: "I will."
When he reached the gate, Zhen Meili's car had already left, and Jian Shiwu asked curiously, "What did my mother tell you just now?"
Shen Cheng said concisely: "Let me take care of you."
Jian Shiwu scratched his head naively: "Do I look so unable to take care of myself?"
Shen Cheng looked at him silently, as if answering silently.
"..."
I didn’t eat anything at the big hotel before. I just watched the show and ate melon seeds. Gao Can came in before I could eat the cake. Although it was late at night, Jian Shi’s stomach was still growling after entering the room at noon. , As the saying goes, if you don't eat a meal, you will feel hungry, and now he is so hungry that his stomach hurts.
In the past, there would definitely be food at home, but today Zhen Meili was busy collecting evidence from the hospital, so the food storage at home was almost zero.
Jian Shiwu said to Shen Cheng: "Class representative, you go to the bathroom to take a shower or something, and I'll get you something to eat."
Shen Cheng locked the door and walked over: "You know how to do it?"
Xiaopang puffed up his chest: "Who do you look down on? My mother cooks so delicious food. Even if I inherit it, I can inherit a little bit of talent, right? You should hurry up and take a shower. The clothes you changed last time are placed in the big room on the second floor." It's in the drawer under the cabinet, you can use the bathroom as you like, but the door lock in my room is still broken, but don't worry, I won't steal it... "
The words choked on his lips, and under Shen Cheng's gaze, Xiaopang gradually remembered the birthmark in the hotel.
Shen Cheng raised his eyebrows, as if waiting for him to continue.
"Well, that was a misunderstanding." A thin layer of sweat broke out on Jian Shiwu's head, and he was nervous: "If I say, I was dreaming, would you believe it?"
Shen Cheng: "I'm curious what kind of dream can dream on my back."
…
Jian Shiwu was stretched, because she was so nervous that she stuttered: "That's right, it's just an ordinary dream."
Shen Cheng raised his eyebrows noncommittally.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became subtle. He had no doubt that if there was a hole in the ground, Jane could get in at noon. Xiaopang's skin was very fair, and when he lowered his head, the shy blush spread from his neck to his ears , cute tight.
"gulu"
A bellyful of protest broke the silence.
Jian Shiwu covered her stomach, unable to see anyone at all, na na: "It's hungry."
Shen Cheng admired it for a while, and finally took a step towards the kitchen. He opened the refrigerator and took a look, and found that there were few things, but there were fresh vegetables, and the shelf for quick-frozen food was empty, only the last column had Eggs, he reached for the eggs and some vegetables in his hands, and walked to the chopping board.
Jian Shiwu followed behind, rushing to work: "I'll come, I'll come."
Shen Cheng looked back: "You can?"
Jane Shiwu took the vegetables and put them on the cutting board, washed them and began to cut the tomatoes: "I... I'll try."
Letting Shen Cheng cook, Jian Shiwu really didn't enjoy it. In the previous life, the relationship between the two of them was very stiff. Although they were engaged, Shen Cheng didn't like him because of the dishonorable means. At that time, he thought that it was a happy event for him to get the command arrow and spread the matter, but it was another matter to spread it to other people's ears.
they said:
"Get married."
"Sold to Jane's family?"
"Hahaha, is he still a man?"
He invisibly caused a lot of harm to Shen Cheng. At that time, he couldn't understand the dignity of a man, and he couldn't know how wrong he was. So he also received retribution later, and his family company went bankrupt. In order to plug the financial loophole, the mother ran around to borrow money, was overworked and had a car accident, and the father passed away because of excessive grief. He later learned that the people who caused problems in the family company and put pressure on them were Mali. , also by Shen Cheng.
Shen Cheng hated him, hated their family.
Without his pressure, his parents would not have died. If he was willing to show mercy and let them go, maybe the result would be different. After learning the truth, he rushed to confront Shen Cheng. It was raining heavily that day. Not long after he got his driver's license, the road was slippery. He hit the guardrail of the bridge and never woke up again.
"ah!"
The knife slid across the fingertips, blood dripped from the cut hand, and the knife was thrown onto the cutting board with a loud noise because of the pain.
Jian Shiwu wrinkled his face together and took a breath
Shen Cheng hurriedly pulled it over to take a look, and his voice became harsher: "You dare to be distracted even when cutting vegetables, you don't want your hands anymore, do you?"
Jane Shiwu pursed her lips aggrievedly.
He pulled the chubby hand back and blew it himself. All kinds of past lives came to his mind, which aggravated the brewing of emotions. He wanted to say something, but before he opened his mouth, tears fell down first.
Shen Cheng looked up, and met a pair of red eyes, those eyes that were usually full of laughter were filled with sadness that he couldn't understand, tears fell down uncontrollably, Xiaopang whimpered, maybe he felt ashamed too, With a crying voice, she softly found a reason for her tears: "It hurts."
Inexplicable
At that moment, Shen Cheng's heart seemed to be pricked with a needle.
This inexplicable emotion made the young man a little irritable, but reason prevailed. He suppressed his emotions and dragged Jian Shiwu out of the kitchen. There was a medicine box on the shelf outside. He cleaned the wound, and the hands holding Jian Shiwu were a little rough. Because the hands were dragged, Jian Shiwu could still feel the calluses in the palms of Shen Cheng's palms. There seem to be more old injuries of various sizes.
Jian Shiwu sat on the chair and looked at Shen Cheng in a daze.
Shen Cheng bandaged the band-aid, and when he saw the snot and tears on the face of the person in front of him, he didn't have any expression of disgust. Instead, he took the tissue and handed it to him, and said in a low and hoarse voice, "Don't cry."
Jian Shiwu saw that he didn't scold her for being hypocritical, but instead showed some considerate gestures, her nose sore, and she almost cried again.
Shen Chengwei frowned inaudibly: "Are you a little girl, have you cut your hands and cried for so long?"
Jane Shiwu was speechless.
Seeing him wiping his face indiscriminately, Shen Cheng sighed inwardly, and stood up: "Go and wash up before coming down to eat."
"… ah?"
Shen Cheng walked towards the kitchen: "Don't touch the wound with water,"
Jian Shiwu had no time to refuse the person and walked into the kitchen. He had no choice but to obediently go to wash up. When he was physically disabled and determined to go downstairs, the downstairs was already full of fragrance, but after about 20 minutes, there were already two dishes on the table. Simple scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and a small vegetable. There seemed to be some kind of meat stewed in the pot. It was so fragrant that his legs almost went limp.
Shen Cheng stood in front of the pot, seasoning the dishes, wearing an apron. The figure of the 14-year-old boy was still a little thin, but from the straight back, he could already see that he would be tall and handsome in the future.
Seeing the pot in the afternoon, Jian Shiwu beamed with joy: "Braised pork!"
Shen Cheng said to him, "Put the rice in a bowl."
"good!"
After being busy for a long time, I finally ate the food. Jian Shiwu sighed contentedly: "It's delicious. How do you know that I like braised pork? It's as delicious as my mother's. I'm so happy, thank you."
Shen Cheng: "The last time I ate here, you almost finished the braised pork. You don't even know."
Jian Shiwu took a mouthful of rice and put it into his mouth, even though his mouth was stuffy, he still said: "Braised pork is the most delicious food in the world"
Shen Cheng saw that he was eating happily and had completely forgotten the unhappiness just now, so he lowered his eyes to eat.
The two of them finished their meal and Jian Shiwu wanted to rush to wash the dishes, but because of his hand injury, he couldn't do it. In the end, Shen Cheng went to wash the dishes. He changed the bed sheets in the guest room upstairs, knowing that Shen Cheng loved cleanliness , so they are all new, and the pillows have also been washed and dried.
After a while, he slowly remembered that his birthday present had been kept in the bag.
They are all downstairs, so we have to take them out.
Jian Shiwu ran down, not far away Shen Cheng was still washing the dishes, while going to the sofa to get his schoolbag, when passing by, he saw a very simple old black mobile phone, the kind that could only make calls and send text messages, A mobile phone that can't even play Tetris, and that mobile phone is silently vibrating at the moment, and the number of the incoming call is a number that I am very familiar with, my mother's number.
What's up
Why didn't mom call herself
Jian Shiwu hesitated for a moment and picked up the phone, before she heard Zhen Meili's voice: "Shen Cheng, Auntie wants to tell you something, you have to be mentally prepared."
