Chapter 8

Xingmo's party on Saturday was very lively, and many acquaintances came.Xiao Huan is familiar with Uncle Xiaoli's family, Aunt Xiaoxiao's family, Aunt Xiaowen who took care of him when he was a child, and Uncle Zhu Yiwen who has always had a delicate relationship with his eldest father Xiao Yimo. He is still single.

After Xiao Huan greeted a group of people, he hid on the second floor, nestled in a corner with a window, picked up a book casually, and read it casually.When he was about to fall asleep, someone creaked up the wooden stairs.

It was Xiao Huan's favorite uncle Zhu Yiwen when he was a child. He was the same age as his father, but his demeanor and temperament were very different.The eldest father has already looked like an old man, but this uncle has the light that can only be found in young people, no matter his body shape or eyes.

"I didn't expect someone to be one step ahead of me." Zhu Yiwen sat down beside Xiao Huan, and leaned over to look at the cover of his book: "What are you looking at?"

"I just took an idle book." Xiao Huan flipped the cover to show him, it was a martial arts novel, and the book was very worn out.

Zhu Yiwen took the book and casually flipped through two pages.Xiao Huan stared at his white hair on the sideburns, and asked him: "Why don't you get married?" After asking, he thought about it and felt wrong: "Why, don't you find someone to be with, like my fathers?"

Zhu Yiwen put down the book and asked him back: "Why don't you fall in love, don't you find a partner?"

"I couldn't find the reason, so I asked you." Xiao Huan's eyes stopped on the wrinkles at the corners of Zhu Yiwen's eyes.

"Because I haven't met anyone better than your second dad." Zhu Yiwen looked at him and replied with a smile on his lips.

Xiao Huan has heard a little about the affairs between adults.Zhu Yiwen was someone my second dad once liked. Before meeting my eldest dad, Xiao Yimo told him this.

"Then why didn't you hold him tight?" Xiao Huan asked.

Zhu Yiwen turned his head and looked out the window, the sun in early autumn was very good, the yard on the first floor was full of people, Tian Yuan and Xiao Yimo were sitting next to each other on the swing, talking with Xiao Li and the others.

"When you were young, you loved yourself too much and didn't know how to love others. When you learn to love others, the person you want to love already has someone who loves him."

Xiao Huan followed his line of sight, just in time to see Xiao Yimo hugging the field, he didn't know what he said, the two looked at each other and laughed.

"I have also talked about a lot of love later, but I can no longer find the feeling that I had at the beginning."

"Then how do you feel seeing my second dad now?"

Zhu Yiwen turned his head and smiled, revealing his perfect white teeth: "It would be great if I was standing next to you!"

Xiao Huan was dumbfounded, he imagined that Zhu Yiwen was like his big dad, and it seemed that he couldn't be better than Xiao Yimo.

"Just tell me what you said, but don't tell my dad, he will kill you!" Xiao Huan warned Zhu Yiwen.

Zhu Yiwen smiled softly, the outside light hit his face, the light and shadow layered, making him appear younger.

"Xiao Huan, your dad told me that you have never liked anyone. He was very worried and didn't know what to do." Between Zhu Yiwen and Xiao Huan, there was a light coming in from the outside.

"Then do you know what to do?" Xiao Huan looked at him.

"Have you really never liked anyone?" Zhu Yiwen asked.

Xiao Huan shook his head: "No."

"So, does anyone like you?"

Xiao Huan thought of Xu Ran, and the many people who later appeared and told him that he liked him.Only Xu Ran cried when he rejected him.

"have it!"

Zhu Yiwen smiled: "It's not that there are, there should be many."

"If you don't have someone you like, then find someone you like. If someone really likes you, don't rush to push him away." Zhu Yiwen sighed.

"What if he doesn't like me anymore?" Xiao Huan was talking about Xu Ran, Xu Ran who once chased after him and carefully told him that he liked you, and Xu Ran who now hides away when he sees him.

"You can come forward, you don't have to wait for others to approach!" Zhu Yiwen stared at him.

Xiao Huan lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.Zhu Yiwen patted him on the shoulder, got up and went downstairs.As soon as he left, Xiao Huan lay down on the floor, looking at the dust floating in the light beam, the emotion that weighed on his chest was biting him like a beast.

Most of the guests left during dinner, only a few old friends stayed to have dinner together.A group of elderly people get together, and the topic is all about their children.Uncle Xiao Li's daughter is two years older than Xiao Huan. She got married last year and is pregnant with twins this year.The son of Aunt Xiaoxiao and Uncle Gao Yong is two years younger than Xiao Huan, and they are planning to get married this year.

The two fathers showed extremely envious expressions, Xiao Huan was unmoved, and ate quietly.When the phone vibrated on the table, the second dad leaned over and saw "Li Dongyao" on the screen, and then sat back.

Xiao Huan got up to answer the phone.

"Xiao Huan, you have to help me!" Li Dongyao said that.

"Help you for what?" Xiao Huan asked.

But Li Dongyao started to hesitate again: "I told you not to get angry, don't hang up on my phone!"

Xiao Huan thought it might not be a good thing, but he still agreed and agreed.

"Help me persuade Xu Ran. I found him a new job. Today I said that I have something to do. I am here to do it. Selling tea in my friend's shop, the basic salary is not high, but the commission is high. Compared with him now This food delivery is much better and much safer!"

Xiao Huan didn't make a sound.Li Dongyao asked him: "Have you read the headlines on your phone today?"

"No."

"A deliveryman from Xu Ran's company was hit to death. He died a terrible death. There are many such news. Delivery is a high-risk occupation. I think Xu Ran can change jobs if he wants to make money." Li Dongyao is very serious .

"Do you keep in touch often?" Xiao Huan asked.

Li Dongyao paused for a few seconds: "I don't have regular contact, just occasionally. I want to help him!"

Xiao Huan didn't speak again.

"Xu Ran is very resistant to help from others, no, it should be from me. I talked to him for a day today, and I just disagree. I really want to help him. I know he owes a lot of money, but Going on like this is not an option." Li Dongyao inquired about him from the person in charge of Xu Ran, his parents were gone, and he owed a large sum of money.

"You and Xu Ran are classmates, if you tell him, maybe he can listen to you."

"En." Xiao Huan responded.After pausing for a few seconds, he said again: "Not necessarily."

"But what you said is more useful than what I said." Li Dongyao said.

Xiao Huan looked back at the room. The two fathers and old friends were chatting lively. Uncle Zhu Yiwen was sitting sideways, his eyes falling in the direction of the second father.

"Okay." Xiao Huan agreed.

Li Dongyao on the phone smiled softly: "Thank you!"

"Why do you help Xu Ran like this?" Xiao Huan asked him back.

"I said I fell in love with him, do you believe it?" Li Dongyao returned to his usual frivolous tone.

Xiao Huan wanted to hang up the phone, but Li Dongyao continued: "Just kidding, although he is indeed my favorite, but he hasn't reached that point yet. I think he is suffering, so I want to give him a hand. I didn't know he was so difficult to pull! "

Li Dongyao sighed straight away, he hit a lot of nails with Xu Ran.

"You are really a good person!" Xiao Huan didn't know what to say, the Li Dongyao he knew was always like this, meddling in his own business.

"Thank you for the compliment, that's all!" Li Dongyao happily hung up the phone.

Xiao Huan returned to the table, and Tian Yuan asked him dissatisfied: "What did you tell Dongyao? It took so long."

"Work matters." Xiao Huan dealt with it casually.

The conversation on the table therefore turned to him.

"Huanhuan, when are you going to bring a date home for your fathers?" Uncle Xiaoli asked first.

"It's still early, don't worry." Xiao Huan was still the same.

Tian Yuan beat him: "Damn child, who said we can't be in a hurry, we are in a hurry!"

Everyone at the table laughed, but Xiao Huan remained expressionless.Everyone saw his cold face and got used to it, so they didn't think there was anything wrong.

"I have to find one, let's talk about it first!" Auntie said again with a quick smile.

Xiao Huan's expression became gloomy, and Zhu Yiwen interjected: "He must have his own ideas, we old people don't have to worry about it!" He said these words, and the effect was very different.Everyone quickly changed the subject and continued talking.

When Xiao Huan was eating, he suddenly put down his chopsticks and told everyone that his company had something to do and he had to leave first.

Pastoral nagging: "What can I do, it's a big weekend!"

Xiao Huan had already left the table and entered the room to change clothes. Tian Yuan wanted to follow, but Xiao Yimo pressed him down, and he followed.

"Who do you think this child looks like? He has been weird since he was a child!" Tian Yuan complained helplessly to everyone.

"Geniuses are a little bit wrong, aren't they?" Zhu Yiwen comforted him.

Others also comforted him, telling him not to think too much.Xiao Huan was born and raised by everyone watching.Except for his withdrawn personality and a little indifference, he has no other problems, and he is much better than his peers.

Xiao Huan was changing clothes, Xiao Yimo came in.

"Is there really something at work?"

Xiao Huan looked at the concern on Xiao Yimo's face, and finally shook his head: "No."

"I'm going to meet someone." Before Xiao Yimo asked, Xiao Huan said first, "He may need my help."

"Well, that's good." Xiao Yimo patted him on the shoulder.

"Dad, what does it feel like to like someone?" Xiao Huan suddenly wanted to ask this: "Uncle Wen said that liking someone means that after you miss him, you don't want to settle for everyone in the future."

"This problem is too big, and I can't say it well." For the first time, Xiao Yimo saw confusion in Xiao Huan's eyes: "Just talk about me and your second dad, I can't imagine what I would be like without him. "

This answer still can't answer the doubts in Xiao Huan's heart. He still doesn't know what it's like to like someone.How Xu Ran liked him back then, he really couldn't imagine, and couldn't understand.All he could remember was his tears.

"Do you all think I'm weird?" Xiao Huan looked at Xiao Yimo.

"Occasionally!" Xiao Yimo laughed.

"Occasionally, I also feel that I am quite abnormal." Xiao Huan squeezed out a smile, and put on his trench coat.

"I'm leaving, Dad."

Xiao Yimo sent him to the parking place in the yard: "I don't know who you met or what happened, but please, don't do things that hurt yourself."

"En." Xiao Huan responded lightly, stepped on the accelerator and drove the car out of the yard.He saw Xiao Yimo from the rearview mirror, and he still stood there watching him.

His family members are very kind to him, always giving him love and trust.He hadn't grown into anything else, and they should be thanked.As for Xu Ran, who should he thank or resent for turning him into what he is now.Is he one of the people he should resent?Xiao Huan looked at the long traffic jam in front of him, and impatiently pressed the car, he was always angry.
