The rain has been falling.

Si Yanan looked out from the backstage window, the black rain dived into the ground, and the light strips formed by street lamps sank and floated in the stagnant water, creating an identical world.

His heart was so painful that it was about to burst, he had to keep staring at those blurred light spots to barely maintain his sanity, so as not to bleed from his palms, which looked too much like a neuropathy.

so many years.

The children have always, never forgotten.

At this moment, Si Yan'an finally understood why he always looked at himself differently from his fans.

It's not the same enough to make him impulsively say "try".

He never understood why he was so sloppy at the beginning, logically speaking, he shouldn't have.He thought that Ming Chen was too close to his eyes.

The result is that I have blind eyes.

Si Yanan took a deep breath, and his eyes suddenly turned red.

He is just a random help, why can there be such a return?There can be such a person, always, always love him.

What did he do again? He felt that he was not good enough, left others to play and disappeared, and the children sent WeChat messages one by one, knowing that he was still waiting at his door when he came back.

A small ball, drenched all over, with a smiling mouth but crying eyes, saying that family is the most important thing.

Si Yanan.

You are a fucking bastard.

Voices were heard near the lounge, and some guests had already left.

Si Yanan restrained his emotions and stood at the corner listening to the movement.He didn't tell Mingchen that he was there, he wanted to control his expression before going out.

After about a quarter of an hour, everyone left, and Mingchen and Lin Tiaotiao came out last.

"Is it still raining outside?" Ming Chen asked.

"It's still going down..." Lin Tiaotiao said, "But it doesn't seem to be big? I don't know if there will be water on the road...Go down and have a look. And brother, you sing so well!"

The two passed the corner and came to the elevator.

Lin Tiaotiao said: "I heard it very clearly in the background, and everyone was shocked when I saw it."

Ming Chen laughed: "Isn't this for winning? Believe it or not, someone will scold me on the Internet again... But I really have no choice. The recent teachers Yan and Chen are too good, and they will be eliminated in the next issue." Bar."

"It's already very good. Did sister Xishi let you last for seven periods?"

"At least this goal has been achieved..."

After a while of silence, the sound of the elevator running became clear.

At this moment, the phone rang, and after a few rings, Si Yan'an heard the child's serious tone: "Tiao Tiao, you go first."

"Eh? Come again——"

The elevator dinged.

"Go, I'll find you later." Ming Chen said.

Lin Tiaotiao disappeared, and Ming Chen was left alone in front of the elevator.

Si Yanan frowned slightly, and took a step outside, just in time to see Ming Chen's expression when he picked up the phone.

very strange.

It's like a different person, with indifferent, even hostile eyes.

"Speak," he said.

After being quiet for about ten seconds, he spoke again: "Don't be so troublesome, what exactly are you going to do, just talk on the phone."

This time, the interval was longer, and he clearly saw that Ming Chen closed his eyes, and faint traces of patience appeared on his forehead.

"address."

Then hang up.

Ming Chen is always cute and docile in front of him, even if he beats up gangsters in the alley, or lifts a boulder weighing hundreds of catties, it's the same.It's never been like this, with aggression written all over it.

Si Yan'an was shocked.

It's not because he saw the other side, but because he discovered that this kind of Ming Chen suddenly had the shadow of the child when he was a child.

Like a wild, ferocious little animal that needs to hunt for itself to survive.

It's horribly cute.

Suddenly, the familiar bell rang.Reflexively, he turned off the ringer, hurried to the other side of the stage, and answered the phone: "Hello?"

"Brother," Ming Chen said in a brisk voice, "Tell Guo Kui not to pick me up, I won't go back today, the program team will go to the hotel next door for dinner."

"Really," Si Yan'an said hoarsely, holding the wall in the darkness with his hands: "Then when will you be back?"

"I don't know yet, I'll go back when it's over."

"...have fun," he said.

The kid lied.

Si Yanan felt even more uneasy, and waited for a while before slowly returning to his previous position.

Ming Chen had already put away his mobile phone, and when the elevator went downstairs, Si Yan'an followed him until he went out by the side door of the TV station and got into a taxi.

Si Yan'an also stopped one and continued to follow.

It was the first time for the driver to follow a car, and he was very excited on the road, asking Sir what he was doing every now and then.Si Yan'an was anxious and didn't argue with him, but when he arrived near a certain area in the west of the city, the car had an accident.

The road condition in the western part of the city is recognized as the worst in Chongshi.

The old city where Yangxinzhai is located has been rectified several times, and it is not so dilapidated anymore, after all, it is not far from the city center.However, there are many old residential areas in the west of the city, and the developers have no funds to invest, so they keep throwing them away, like ugly scars in a bright and beautiful city.

It has been raining today, and the water on this road has accumulated up to a calf. When the driver passed by, something went wrong, and the car turned off.

Si Yanan got out of the car and stepped into the water.

He frowned, regretting holding Ming Chen back when he wasn't on the TV station.But if you don't follow up, the children may not say it again.

A call was made to Ming Chen, but no one answered it until it was disconnected.

Reluctant to hit another one, still.

He now knows that in terms of stubbornness, no one can compare to Ming Chen.

"Master, the money has been paid." Si Yan'an took back his mobile phone and greeted him. Regardless of the surprised voice of the driver behind him, he stepped on the water and headed towards the direction where the previous taxi disappeared.

***

Ming Chen got out of the car and stood in front of an iron gate.

There are not many one-story houses in Chongshi, and he feels like he is visiting antiques.

The memory he thought he had forgotten suddenly overlapped with the picture in front of him, and he knew that he hadn't forgotten it.

Even remember it well.

This small yard, the carport in the yard, the debris pile, and a small piece of bare soil with cucumber vines are all exactly the same as in memory.

Obviously didn't live long.

He patted on the iron door, making a bang bang bang sound, as if it was about to fall apart.

Someone came out of the house, and the beam of the flashlight was as clear as a line in the rain.

"Obviously, I'm back."

The light of the flashlight swept over Ming Chen's eyes, he didn't dodge or dodge, only his pupils shrank.

The iron door clicked open.

There was a rancid and greasy taste in the man's voice: "Come in, come in, you haven't been back for many years, you must have forgotten your father, right?"

He didn't expect Ming Chen's answer, and led him into the house.

The plastic slippers stepped on the masonry floor with a thin layer of water, squeezed, lifted, and the air flow rubbed against the water, making a strange sizzle sound.

Ming Chen entered the room indifferently.

The man groped for the wall and turned on the light.

The furnishings in the house are even more old under the dim light, there is very little new furniture, and everything is dusty.

And it doesn't look like there is a second person living there.

The sofa creaked and the man sat down.

Half of his hair was gray and uneven, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes drooped. He made a kind and smiling expression: "You sit too."

Ming Chen stood still.

The man used to be a primary school teacher, kindness is his innate skill.

His smile deepened, and his tone became lighter: "Obviously... sit down."

After three seconds of stagnation, he kicked on the coffee table and roared: "Why don't you sit!! Can you hear me! Why are you disobedient! Sit!!!"

The sound was like thunder, shaking the ceiling as if it was about to drop dust.

Ming Chen's heart stopped beating twice in shock.

He didn't show anything on his face.

"...Huh..." The man gasped, like an old bull, his eyes widened, and his body heaved vigorously: "Haha, this is... grown up."

Ming Chen looked down at him: "How do you know my number?"

The man didn't seem to expect that he would ask this, and the corners of his mouth grinned upwards: "What's the matter? Of course it was Dad who asked about it. After all these years, you have made a lot of money, so you don't come to see Dad...Of course Dad has to ask about it."

Ming Chen didn't respond, so he continued on his own: "It's just that I didn't expect you to be so disobedient... You were disobedient since you were a child... always running outside. You're an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf."

"Dad saw you on TV, and you can sing. It's really nice. The little girls down there are screaming. I heard that they are willing to spend money for you... How much do they give you? How much is it for you to sing?" song?"

"You are promising, and Dad is very pleased to see that I don't want more... 1000 million. Dad is old and retired last year. If you don't come back to provide for me, naturally you have to compensate for the money..."

The smile lines in the corners of the man's eyes are more obvious: "Those little girls who like you, do you know that you are an orphan that no one wants? Do you know that you have been disobedient since childhood, and you are a gangster on the street? Know that you have made a lot of money, but you are not filial to your adoptive parents Isn't it?... You public figures, don't you want to save face the most?"

"Don't be angry... Dad doesn't want this either. Dad liked you very much before. It's all because you are disobedient."

"Among so many young children back then, I picked you at first glance."

"Number." Ming Chen didn't seem to hear a word, just repeated: "Ask you."

The man's face turned cold: "Obviously, did you listen to what Dad said?"

"You're dreaming." Ming Chen said indifferently, "You're a fool. You don't know what tricks I have, so you dare to blackmail me? Today, you tell me where you got the number, and I'll let you go It didn't happen. Otherwise, don't even think about living your old age in peace."

"You!" The man jumped up from the sofa suddenly.

He was extremely angry and wanted to get angry, but he instinctively cared about the cruel words just now—until he saw Ming Chen's hand.

I tried my best to hide it, but I couldn't hide it, trembling.

It turned out to be a bluff.

"Haha...hahaha!" The man laughed, and his shadow was cast on the wall like a ferocious monster: "Grow up! Grow up! You little bastard, born bad, you can tell lies! You are still scared after all!" I--"

Before he finished speaking, he felt a sense of weightlessness. He was thrown to the wall by his neck, his eyes went dark, and he made a ho ho sound.

Ming Chen trembled and grabbed his throat.

Scared.

Too scared.

He has been afraid of many things since he was a child.

Fear of rain, fear of thunder, fear of feeling hungry, fear of cats... fear of death.

There are always such inexplicably born weak things in the world, living is hitting a wall, but as long as he is stronger, it seems that fate will not treat him like this.

So he struggled and wanted more courage.

However, these terrible things still follow, like the rotten apple at the sports meeting, like the bad news he heard when fans were poisoned.He couldn't help being afraid.

Sometimes he would think, is it because I was born like this, why can't I be strong?

Maybe.

The system yelled frantically in his mind: [Mr. Mingchen!Mr. Ming Chen!Please pay attention to your behavior!Bullying is bad behavior! ]

Ming Chen was panting heavily, strangled the man's neck with both hands, and saw him roll his eyes.

It was so frightening that my hands were too stiff to let go.

He still remembered the feeling when this man, holding a stick, hit him hard on the head.pain.Fear.

[Mr. Ming Chen!Mr. Ming Chen! ] The system was so anxious that it was almost overloaded, and suddenly raised another octave: [Listen!listen!Someone is coming outside!It's him! ]

There was a loud banging sound from the courtyard door, rhythmic bang bang.It's like thunder on a rainy night like this.

Ming Chen subconsciously let go of his hand.

His heart was beating so fast that he was about to vomit, and he froze for ten seconds.

Until there was the sound of something falling down, and then a shout: "Ming Chen!"

His mind was blank, and he fell to the ground exhausted, and then he was picked up by a pair of big hands under his armpits, and hugged into his arms like a child.

"Baby." Si Yan'an pressed him firmly into his arms, his voice trembling: "Don't be afraid anymore. I found you."
