triple world

No one in this world is really good to him, Gu Wensheng has always believed so.

***

In the small and cramped space, there is only a faint light coming through a thin slit, and the child is huddled in the corner of the cabinet, motionless.

The heavy panting of the man outside was intertwined with the moaning of the woman, without any restraint, it took a long time to stop.

"I remember you have a daughter?" After a moment of silence in the room, a man's voice suddenly sounded, as if he hadn't mentioned it.

"Why, have you fallen in love with him? Lying on my bed and thinking about my child, just be a human being!" Then the woman sneered, "Don't worry about it, I gave birth to a son."

The man who had been poked in his mind let out a smirk, hurriedly got up and put on his clothes, and even left a little faster.

After a while, the cabinet door was opened, and the light that came in instantly made the child subconsciously cover his eyes, and the next moment he was dragged out by his hair.

He fell to the ground in embarrassment, his knees and elbows were immediately red, and he didn't move.

"Dead?" The woman kicked his calf with her bare toes, a cigarette dangling from her mouth, and she didn't mind being disheveled in front of her child.

"I just heard it. You look like your dad. Any man misses you. If it wasn't for my mother supporting you, do you know what you're like now?" She squatted down and looked at the child's face tilted aside. , Dirty face can also see how good the bottom is, she reached out and grabbed the child's hair and pulled him up, then pressed hard on the edge of the bed, "You are going to lie here like an old lady! "

The child was very quiet, didn't cry, didn't make noise, didn't even struggle, it was just a pair of scary black eyes.

When she met those dark eyes, the woman felt that every minute and every second of his existence reminded herself how she fell from the clouds and became a rotten peach blossom in the muddy water that no one picked up.

The woman kicked the child on the stomach, and seeing the pain finally appeared on his face, she let out a sigh of relief, as if she was in a better mood, and muttered: "My surname is Gu, you owe me this."

There was a sound in the kitchen and the woman started cooking.

Gu Wensheng lay on the ground and sat up slowly, leaned against the edge of the bed, covered his mouth and coughed a few times, his palms were stained with blood, his gums had just been knocked out, and his throat smelled bloody.

Everywhere on his body hurts, and he is used to being beaten every day. He can't struggle when being beaten, otherwise it may make the woman even more angry, and the suffering is not limited to this.

"Meow."

A head poked out from the door, and a flat-faced cat ran in and approached Gu Wensheng, rubbed his arm affectionately, and wanted to lick his wound, but Gu Wensheng avoided it and hugged it in his arms.

It still struggled to lick the child's face, but the arm that was holding it didn't let go, and it obediently nestled still.

Animals are better at adapting to their environment than humans.

It has been a long time since the cat rushed in to protect Gu Wensheng when he was beaten. It knew that it and its little master would only be beaten more severely when it came in at that time, so it got used to hiding aside and coming out when the mistress left. .

Gu Wensheng pinched its paws. From his perspective, the face of the cat in his arms was even more flattened. There was a circle of black, black, yellow and yellow secretions around the eyes. One eye looked cloudy, and the body was dirty. Yes, the hairs are twisted together one by one, like a stray cat that is wandering and can't clean itself, but it is a pet kept in this family.

He still remembers a time when the cat ran out and was caught by the child next door and was about to throw it from the upstairs. He heard the screams and begged the woman to let him go out. When he saw the child's mother was educating her. The child - this is a very expensive cat, they can't afford it.

The mother smiled awkwardly when she saw them, put the cat down, and closed the door with the crying child.

Yes, the cat is a very expensive cat. Gu Wensheng still remembers that it was brought back by his father when he was at home. There were several servants who took care of it. It was carefully prepared. At that time, the cat was also named Huang Bao, which was chosen by the hostess herself.

As the hostess' treasure, even if it was divorced later, it was taken away as the hostess's property, and fell from the clouds with the three-year-old child just like its hostess.

Gu Wensheng never called it "Huang Bao". To him, a cat is just a cat, not the cat it used to be.

"Meow."

The cat arched in his arms again, very close to him, and seemed to comfort his little master.

There is still no meat for dinner today.

Women don't like meat, or she can't get used to the meat bought from a dirty market for her. I don't know how long she has been exposed to the stale air. This kind of unknown has a great impact on her, but she She doesn't care, she can maintain her current figure by relying on vegetarian food, as long as she eats once in a while.

As for the child's malnutrition, it was out of her consideration. Being able to feed him was already showing kindness.

It was clearly the child born in October of her pregnancy. Gu Wensheng was actually a little more like her, but Song Manan couldn't find the slightest feeling of being a mother in him.

He is so smart, so smart that he doesn't look like a child, so that every time Song Manan sees him, he feels that he is mocking herself, and this feeling makes her heart always burn.

Gu Wensheng was eating, except for the dish in front of him, he hardly touched anything else, most of the time he just ate the rice in the bowl honestly, but this still aroused Song Manan's anger.

She threw down the chopsticks in her hand and slapped him across the face. The child who was sitting well was slapped to the ground. The bowl shattered all over the floor. The fragments cut his arm, and the fur of the cat not far away exploded and rushed towards him. He was quickly kicked away by the former mistress.

He was beaten again after failing to finish his meal, and when Song Manan went to bed, the little Gu Wensheng was left in the kitchen to clean up the mess.

He is already nine years old, and his height is not even comparable to children a few years younger than him. At this age, he has not yet gone to school. Volunteers from the community have visited several times, but the woman has always put him back because of his poor health.

In the eyes of people in this community, the woman who lives in 602 is a miserable person. There is a child in the family who is not smart, and she is injured all day long. She cannot go out to work as a woman and can only rely on those few men. I have never seen the child's father come before, and when he talked about her, he always looked sad.

The cat came out to stay by Gu Wensheng's side again, and Gu Wensheng sometimes wondered if he was its child in the cat's eyes, no matter what he did, he had to protect him, and when he was extremely afraid, he forgot that he would be beaten if he jumped out.

When he was picking up the pieces of the bowl, it squatted aside and stretched out its paws to push, but because it had just been kicked, this action seemed a bit reluctant.

The cat's health is not good, starvation, trauma and eye infection, and gradually it will lose sight.

Several times Gu Wensheng saw the cat walking and bumping into the table legs, but he had no choice but to wipe it with a paper towel and it would only get dirtier and dirtier. Didn't even bother with it.

He and the cat seemed to be prisoners locked in this room, with no hope of escape.

But sometimes Gu Wensheng is very lucky, fortunate to have this cat by his side, otherwise such a life might be even more difficult.

One day he will go out, leave this little house.

Gu Wensheng lived like this for a long time afterwards, and sometimes thinking about such days makes people feel that living is a kind of torture.

And as time passed, the cat's movements became more and more sluggish, as if the woman's foot had caused some bad changes. Gu Wensheng, who had been paying attention to the cat, felt that its movements became more and more difficult, and it ate less. .

But he hasn't spoken for a long time, and he can only make some vague sounds when staring at the cat. The idea of ​​asking a woman for help has never occurred to him at all. A woman will not save it, but will only cut it off when it is about to die. neck.

When Gu Wensheng woke up one day, he found that the woman had already prepared lunch and waited for him. There was no reluctance on her face, and her kind smile made her look like a perfect mother.

But Gu Wensheng was not surprised, she was always so fickle, no matter how kind she was one second, she might do it directly the next second, the woman's spirit was not normal, he had always known about it.

The cat that was lying next to his bed when he was sleeping yesterday did not know where to go. Gu Wensheng looked around the room but couldn't find him, but he didn't dare to delay, so he had to put it aside for now.

It was rare to have meat on the table today, but when it was placed in front of the woman, Gu Wensheng didn't even look at it.

"Your father will pick you up tomorrow." The woman said suddenly.

Gu Wensheng was a little surprised. He always thought that his whereabouts were hidden from his father.

"It seems that you still remember what happened when you were a child. Are you happy that you will leave my side soon without being beaten?" Song Manan sneered.

Gu Wensheng shook his head, and minimized his sense of existence. Based on past experience, he should be beaten again at this time.

But he didn't, Song Manan just looked at him with a very incomprehensible look, and then gave him a piece of meat for the first time.

"eat."

The child looked at the brown piece of meat in the bowl. The woman didn't do much with it, and it still had a smell in the soup, but he still ate it seriously.

This is the first time he has eaten meat in a long time, and he even thinks about saving some for his cat. He knows that the cat will not live long, but if he can go home tomorrow, he may be able to heal it. As for who is with him It didn't matter much to him.

Today's Song Man'an is indescribably gentle, her every move is very much like the little princess who was protected by everyone a long time ago, she even put on makeup today, and she has a little more mother's love for Gu Wensheng.

"Are you still hungry?" Song Manan asked, "If not enough, there are still in the kitchen."

Gu Wensheng shook his head, but Song Manan ignored him, and only said: "You can eat at ease, don't let your father think that I treat you badly."

One minute later, another head was poured into the plate. The yellow hair could no longer be seen from its original appearance during the cooking, but when Gu Wensheng saw it, his throat convulsed and he vomited. inside out.

His throat twitched uncontrollably, his eyes were flooded with acid, and Gu Wensheng couldn't make a sound.

Song Man'an stood aside and smiled, seeing the child in a mess, she felt indescribably happy, and it took her a long time to leave in satisfaction.

Until 10 o'clock in the evening, the woman who returned to the room did not come out again. When Gu Wensheng went to see her, she was lying on the bed, wearing the clothes she wore on the day of divorce, with a fruit knife on her chest, and the bed sheet was stained red with blood.

When the people from the Gu family came to pick up their young master, they saw the skinny child sitting in the living room holding a ball of stinking rotten meat, while his mother was lying on the bed in the bedroom not far from him. On the bed until death with a smile.
