"I, how many times have I told you, don't worry about Lao Tzu's affairs! You—you even told people not to lend me money, and you would not pay back the loan?! Lao Tzu gave birth to you and raised you for more than ten years. Now you Yes, is it because the wings are hard and you want to fly, ah!?"

"..."

When Xie Li walked into the living room, the middle-aged man with his back turned to him was cursing angrily, and swung his raised hand down, as if he was about to slap the boy on the face.

Without even thinking about it, Xie Li stepped forward a few steps, grabbed the middle-aged man's hand, then pulled him hard, and threw him away behind him.

He stretched out his hand to hold Yu Rui's wrist, frowned and lowered his head to look at the person up and down, and then said hoarsely: "...Are you alright?"

Yu Rui was originally standing there with downcast eyes, but now he was also distracted by Xie Li's sudden appearance.After reacting, he subconsciously broke away from Xie Li's hand, "Why are you back?"

"If I don't come back, will you let him slap you?" Xie Li was so angry that his eyes were gloomy.

Yu Rui frowned, but didn't explain anything.

On the other side, Yu Congsheng was thrown off mercilessly by Xie Li, and he staggered back a few steps before standing firmly against the wall.He raised his head in bewilderment and shock, and then anger surfaced on his face flushed by alcohol:

"You... who are you?! Why are you taking care of our family?!"

"—"

As soon as Xie Li heard the alcohol-smelling voice behind him, he burst into anger all of a sudden.

Thinking of Yu Rui's previous slap was probably caused by this person, and thinking of Yu Li's telling him that Yu Rui suffered because of this man, he just wished he could turn around and beat him until he couldn't take care of himself.

But after warning himself several times in his heart that "this is Yu Rui's guardian in name", Xie Li had no choice but to suppress the anger in his heart.

He turned his head coldly and looked at the middle-aged man who was half a head shorter than him——

"I'm Yu Rui's friend."

Every word and sentence seemed to be bitten viciously between the teeth and then spit out.

Coupled with the fierce eyes that seemed to be rushing up to smash someone in the next second, Yu Congsheng was really frightened for a while, and he only opened his mouth in vain for a long time, but did not say a word.

Until the door of the small bedroom next door was opened from the inside, Yu Li, who had been squatting beside the door and shivering in fright, ran out from inside, and when she came over, she hugged Yu Rui's arm tightly, probably frightened, her eyes were red , but the little girl just lowered her head and refused to speak.

Seeing it, Xie Li was so angry that his cheekbones trembled slightly.

And Yu Li's appearance at this time seemed to suddenly give Yu Cong a little inspiration. He looked at Xie Li with some evasion, and then looked at Yu Rui viciously.

"You dare to ask your friends to support you... But don't forget, the two of you live in my house! If it weren't for me, you—you would all be homeless! Besides, It is only natural for the father to pay the debt of the son!"

Xie Li's forehead twitched violently, he clenched his fists and was about to step forward, but was pulled back by Yu Rui who had expected it from behind him.

Yu Rui looked at Yu Congsheng with cold eyes.

"I will repay your debts, not because of any righteousness, but because I will not let the garbage you know disturb Xiaoli's life."

"..."

Yu Cong was so angry that he wanted to fight again, but he was worried about Xie Li standing there, he was sure that Yu Rui would not fight back, but he was afraid of this friend of Yu Rui who seemed very fierce.

After being frozen for a while, Yu Cong turned around angrily, cursed something, and went back to his room cursing.

The living room returned to silence.

Xie Li stood aside with a stiff figure, watching Yu Rui calmly sobbing Yu Li with cold eyes, and sent him back to the room.

When Yu Rui came out of Yu Li's room, Xie Li pulled Yu Rui's wrist without saying a word, and dragged him directly into Yu Rui's room.

"boom."

Only from the sound of the door closing, one could hear how angry Xie Li was at this moment.

It was rare for Yu Rui to be silent and obedient, and followed Xie Li into his bedroom.

Xie Li stopped, turned back and moved Yu Rui to the front——

"Are you as good at me as you are at others? Why can't you fight back when you scold and beat that trash?!"

Yu Rui was silent for two seconds, "I'm sorry to interrupt your birthday."

Xie Li gritted his teeth, "Is this something I'm sorry for?"

"..."

"Give me a reason!"

"What reason."

"You are not the kind of person who is willing to endure." Xie Li's eyes were gloomy. "Then why do you still tolerate him?"

Yu Rui frowned slowly.

After a few seconds, he spoke in a cold voice, "Didn't you hear that? This is his house. If it's just me, it doesn't matter where I live, but Xiaoli can't, I can't let her live with me. .”

"...It really is for Yu Li again." Xie Li gritted his teeth.

"She is my sister—" Yu Rui's suppressed anger and annoyance finally opened a hole, his eyes were red, he looked up at Xie Li and said word by word, "I can't give up She doesn't care."

"Yes, you are touching, you are awesome." Xie Li was so angry that his eyes were tearing apart, he raised his hand and pinched the boy's jaw, forcing Yu Rui to slightly lift the broken corner of his mouth, "—then why can't you Do you feel sorry for yourself?!"

"..."

Yu Rui looked at Xie Liman's angry eyes that were suppressed to the point of going crazy, and suddenly froze.

It was the first time he saw Xie Li get so angry, almost to the point of terror, but it was because of him.

After a few seconds, the boy's tense shoulders slowly relaxed.

Yu Rui lowered his eyes slightly, "...I'm sorry."

Xie Li froze, and there was a lingering tinge of anger in his voice, "What are you sorry for me?"

"sorry that I had you worried."

"...I'm worried ass." Xie Li let go of his hand, and it was the first time Yu Rui heard him swear, "Am I worried? I feel so fucking distressed! I'm afraid of bumping into the person I'm touching. To slap others in the face!?"

"..."

After the room was quiet for a while, Yu Rui turned his head and laughed very lightly.

Xie Li frowned and glanced over, "Are you still laughing?"

Yu Rui had restrained his smile, and turned a little serious, "It's really hard for you to swear."

"I haven't practiced before." Xie Li frowned, "Anyone who would make me so upset has already been sent to the hospital, so there's no need to talk nonsense."

"."

Xie Li was silent for a few seconds, then turned back, "What you just said is the only reason you put up with him, right?"

"Well," Yu Rui asked back, "what's wrong?"

"Nothing. I'll make a phone call."

After Xie Li finished speaking, he turned around and left Yu Rui's bedroom, and walked into the kitchen familiarly.After closing the sliding door of the kitchen, he took out his mobile phone and frowned to make a call.

After two or three minutes, Xie Li came back, and Yu Rui was startled by the first sentence:

"I found a moving company."

"..." It took Yu Rui several seconds to react, and he turned to look at Xie Li in disbelief, "What company?"

"Moving company." Xie Li repeated, "They will come over later—you and Yuli can move to live with me."

Yu Rui came to his senses and frowned, "Xie Li, are you crazy?"

"I'm not normal, you know?"

"But such a big thing—"

"You don't have to think too much about it. It's a house in my own name, and it has nothing to do with anyone else. And as you said, I can't bear to see Xiaoli suffering in this family and being frightened...you just go with her by the way past."

Yu Rui frowned.

Xie Li said again: "Oh yes, it's not free, remember to pay me... 3000 rent every year. I will write a contract by hand, and it will take effect after you sign it."

After finishing speaking, Xie Li walked to Yu Rui's desk, pulled out a pen and took out a blank sheet of paper, and began to quickly draft the contract.

3000 a year in their city's rent is like a joke, Yu Rui naturally knows that Xie Li is just afraid that he will feel bad.

Yu Rui pinched his knuckles, "I don't—"

"Think carefully," Xie Li kept writing, "This time, that trash hit you after drinking too much, are you sure he won't slap Yu Li next time?"

Yu Rui's expression changed.

Xie Li: "There is still more than a year before you officially become an adult. You will have other choices when you become an adult. If you don't move out before then, what will you do if those debt collectors come to your door? Let Yu Li accompany you adventure?"

"..."

Every sentence went straight to Yu Rui's "death point", those words that Yu Rui didn't have time to say, finally swallowed them back amidst these hesitation.

When Xie Li finished drafting the contract, he handed the pen and paper to Yu Rui, and the phone rang in due course.

Xie Li took out his mobile phone, "You sign first, I'll answer the call."

Still in the kitchen.

Xie Li connected the phone, and Lin Yihuan's voice sounded from the opposite side: "Brother Li, I heard Yanzi said that you asked him to arrange someone to go to Yu Rui's house to carry luggage?"

"Ah."

"Move, move to your villa?"

"Ah."

"No...Brother Li, what's your plan? Uncles and aunts must know about such a big commotion on your side."

"If you know it, you know it." Xie Li said lazily, "I'm not going to hide it either."

Lin Yihuan: "???"

Xie Li: "But you're right to remind me. There are some things that need to be resolved before the trouble gets to him."

"No, what did I remind you, don't scare me, Li—"

Before Lin Yihuan finished speaking, Xie Li hung up the phone.

He didn't put down his cell phone and dialed another number directly.

After a while, the call was connected:

"Mom, I have something to discuss with you."

"Why so suddenly, what happened?"

"Nothing else," Xie Li rubbed his neck, his tone casual, "I'm coming out with you."

"...?"
