secretly

On his birthday, Zhou Ran wanted to invite Lou Yuchen to come to play at home, and asked him if he wanted to make up lessons tonight, Lou Yuchen asked him what he was doing, and Zhou Ran said he would buy you a drink.

In the end, I tricked people into the house and refused to let them drink. I only opened a bottle of beer for myself.Lou Yuchen took the Pepsi that he handed over: "Who do you look down on..."

Zhou Ran just laughed, and raised his finger to point to the black and white words on the counter: It is forbidden to sell alcohol and tobacco to minors.

The two of them were nestled on the second floor of Xiao Zhou Shangchao, to be precise, it should be the half floor.The floor height of the storefront is relatively high, and the innermost floor is separated by half a floor for people to live in, and a wooden ladder is built to go up and down.In the past, their family had a house in the back community, but his father bet it off and could only live in the shop.Zhou Ran put aside all the pillows and bedding, moved a small coffee table in the middle, ordered a table of takeaways, and then unpacked a package of Miaofu cupcakes.

"Oh, what about the pre-dinner dessert?" Lou Yuchen reluctantly opened the Coke.

"Birthday." Zhou Ran raised the cupcake and ate half of it in one bite.

"...Why didn't you tell me earlier, order you a cake." Lou Yuchen said.

"No, children only eat cream cakes on their birthdays, right?" Zhou Ran raised his eyebrows, and deliberately hit Lou Yuchen's soda can with the glass neck of the beer bottle in his hand.

In fact, he didn't have much birthday cake as a kid.

A few customers came in the middle, Zhou Ran poked his head out from the second floor, took a rough look and calculated the price, and asked them to scan the QR code to pay. "Is this really all right?" Lou Yuchen poked his head out and looked down, "Why don't you take it downstairs to eat."

"No, I didn't seriously collect the money downstairs anyway." Zhou Ran didn't care whether the customer had scanned the QR code and paid. The space upstairs was small, so he walked back to the table with a stoop and sat down cross-legged.

"That's true." Lou Yuchen also sat down, was silent for a long time, took a sip of his beer, "Actually, that day, when I was discovered by you, was not the first time."

"...Really?" Zhou Ran froze for a moment.

Lou Yuchen probably had never drank alcohol before, and soon his face turned red and burned: "Really, because you are not serious about collecting money, it is always easy to get your way."

"Damn, why are you bullying honest people?" Zhou Ran snatched the beer back and took a sip, "Then you pretended you didn't know me at school, you should have already taken a fancy to me!"

Lou Yuchen propped his chin and looked at him: "No, every time you collect money, you keep your head down and ignore people. I really didn't know what you looked like before."

"Damn, then you are at a disadvantage!" Zhou Ran slapped the table, "Such a handsome face, count how many times you have missed it, you are at a disadvantage."

"Yes, yes, I suffered a loss." Lou Yuchen said, "Did you drink too much..."

Zhou Ran stood up abruptly, accidentally bumped into the ceiling, staggered and sat back with a scream: "Then, have you figured out how to compensate me?"

Lou Yuchen pulled him over and rubbed the back of his head: "I paid it, once I stuffed a 100 yuan note under your lollipop box."

Immediately afterwards, the two quarreled for 100 minutes about whether they had spent the 10 yuan, and finally Zhou Ran sighed: "Maybe my dad picked it up, how can such a good thing like picking up money not be my turn, you say. "

He stood up again and wanted to go downstairs to get some wine, but accidentally stepped on Lou Yuchen's clothes. One lost his center of gravity and the other lost his balance.

Lou Yuchen kissed Zhou Ran on the forehead: "Happy birthday, everything will be good in the future."

And Zhou Ran was obviously not satisfied with this forehead kiss, he approached Lou Yuchen bit by bit, so close that he could feel the temperature of his lips: "You are so hot."

Zhou Ran followed the heat source and posted it. This drunken kiss made both of them feel very fresh.

If you close your eyes, the world you see is orange, just like the wine you drank secretly today.Lou Yuchen felt like his whole body was soaked in the wine, they were two small transparent bubbles, flowing from the bottom of the bottle to the surface of the water.So he hugged Zhou Ran tightly so that they would become a big bubble——before they burst together.

The darkness came suddenly, and the two of them suddenly opened their eyes.Zhou Ran pursed her lips, feeling annoyed: "Fuck, is it a power outage or a trip? I'll go out and have a look."

Lou Yuchen also sat up, and the two of them bent over and bumped wildly in the small space, stepping down the ladder in turn.

"I'll be with you." Lou Yuchen reached out to grab Zhou Ran.

"Wow, you're not afraid of the dark, are you?" Zhou Ran smiled and squeezed his hand, "I'll go out and ask someone, and I'll be back in a while. You can stay here and help me look after the store. There is a large flashlight in the middle of the row of shelves inside, you take one, that should be quite bright, and take a No. [-] battery, under the counter."

After Zhou Ran left, Lou Yuchen walked to the innermost shelf by the light of the mobile phone, squatted down and found the flashlight from a pile of daily necessities, and then went back to the cash register to look for batteries.There was a sound of unfamiliar footsteps behind him, and he still remembered to show Zhou Ran the store, so he stood up with a flashlight: "Welcome, sorry for the power outage..."

The faint light of the mobile phone vaguely shone on the customer's face. Lou Yuchen didn't realize it for a while. The opposite was a middle-aged man. He and Zhou Ran looked alike...Of course, the correct statement should be that Zhou Ran and his looks like.

It can be confirmed at a glance that this person is Zhou Ran's father.In the next second, all the lights came on and the electricity came.

It was late at night, and the surrounding shops were closed.Zhou Ran walked forward for a long time. He originally went to the nearby store to ask for help. Unexpectedly, the host was not at home, but he was sure it was just a power outage, not a problem with the wiring in the store.When he called, he was just about to leave. Unfortunately, one of the overhead lights in this house was broken, probably due to poor contact.The host was not there, so Zhou Ran climbed up the ladder to help tighten the light bulb, and this tossing was delayed for a long time.

When walking back, he always felt that something was wrong. Several people surrounded the door of Xiao Zhou Shangchao, making a lot of noise.Zhou Ran panicked, he ran over at a faster speed, and the neighbor's fat aunt greeted him from a distance: "Oh, Ran Ran, where have you been? You are not careful at all! How can you leave the store with the door open?" Let's play! Your father just caught a thief!"
