bad daddy

Xiang Jie smiled at He Yaning twice in embarrassment, and his eyes fell on the other's snow-white skin involuntarily.How can there be such a good-looking person in the world, so nice that people can't bear to get close to them, for fear that the breath they exhale will pollute the other party.

"Not asleep yet?" He Yaning glanced at him, his voice was distant and cold.Xiang Jie choked up and wanted to ask something, but he didn't say anything after all.

"...Good night." Finally, he scratched his head and said dryly.

When the phone rang that morning, Xiang Jie stared at the caller ID and was stunned for a while.

"Mom?" While helping He Yaning put away the clothes from the balcony, he tilted his neck and clamped the phone, "What's wrong?"

"What's the matter?" Mom was a little dissatisfied, "I called my son, what else do I have to do?"

Xiang Jie quickly laughed along with him, and threw the packed clothes on the sofa first, "Of course, you can hit me if you want, and you don't have to have anything to do."

Mom and Dad are different.Dad has been in the military for more than ten years, and his uncompromising temperament is engraved in his bones.If there was only a man like Dad in this world, Xiang Jie would have been reincarnated countless times.If Xiang Jie was beaten when he was young, his mother would basically have saved his life.

"How are you doing these days?" Mom called and asked just a few things.

Xiang Jie picked out He Yaning's clothes one by one. The clothes just received were weak and needed to be ironed. Xiang Jie's voice was also a little hoarse, "That's it, it's fine, don't worry."

Mom let out a long breath.Xiang Jie hurriedly asked what happened.

"When will you come back?" Mom asked on the other end of the phone, "Don't you understand your dad? How can he be angry with you all the time. He doesn't say anything, but he still thinks about you in his heart."

Xiang Jie knew that his mother was here to persuade her to surrender.He pursed his lips and sat on the sofa full of clothes.

Today's weather is not very good, the window is dusty, and even the clothes that have been collected have a soft damp smell.

"...I don't want to go back yet." With his front teeth, he gently nibbled at the skin on his lower lip.

"I didn't ask you to come back now." The mother's voice was still kind, "Xiaojie, what kind of work do you do over there? Are you the same as your brother? Mom told you, this Work is still good..."

Again.

Xiang Jie sighed silently in his heart, moved the phone away slightly, and picked his ear with his little finger in boredom.

"...you don't have a stable job, how can people be willing to be with you?" Mom's topic circled around and returned to Xiang Jie's most troublesome question, "Xiao Jie, what's going on with you and Jiang Fang?" ? Such a good girl, how can I divide it?"

Xiang Jie immediately called out: "Mom—"

My mother was very dissatisfied with his perfunctory attitude. The main reason was that she really liked Jiang Fang, a beautiful and sensible girl. "It's useless to call me grandma! I've heard all about it. You brought up the breakup?"

Xiang Jie, one head and two older, "You are quite well informed..."

This is the default now.

Xiang Jie's mother has been holding back this matter for several days, and finally seized the opportunity, but she had to talk to her stupid son, "What's the matter with you? Did you quarrel?"

Xiang Jie sniffed, "No."

"Then what's going on? Are you cheating?" My mother really lacks imagination for feelings, and guessed and guessed, there are only a few reasons.Xiang Jie was annoyed, "I didn't quarrel, and I didn't cheat. I just think he's very nice, and I don't deserve him."

As he said that, he choked up a little, "Such a good girl, you can't delay with me."

My mother was dumbfounded when she heard this self-defeating speech, "Then you won't work hard?"

Xiang Jie's breathing was slightly stagnant, and he fell down on the sofa.He closed his eyes tiredly.His temples throbbed, and after a few seconds, Xiang Jie let out a heavy breath.

effort.effort.It's hard work again.This word has appeared extremely frequently in his more than twenty years of life.

Work hard to get into key high schools and key universities.Try to study the major with the best employment prospects, and strive to be a promising lawyer.

Try to be an alpha worthy of the pride of your parents and brothers.

It is written in the red-colored silk slogan, hung on the lips of parents and teachers, written in wishes and diaries, and repeatedly expected and defined.

Not to mention whether he really worked hard, at least for now, Xiang Jie really hates this word.

He hated being beaten like this to live.

"I don't want to work hard anymore, Mom." The words in my stomach have been repeated countless times, and Xiang Jie finally said, "I don't want to go back, and I don't want to be with anyone. I don't want to be responsible to anyone." .I really, don't want to work hard anymore."

At the end of the bustling Zhongshan Avenue, turn left, and there is a dark alley.The most experienced nail households in the area are stationed here, and the car will die at the entrance of the alley.He Yaning parked his car in a nearby shopping mall, and as soon as he reached the entrance of the alley, a stray cat jumped past his feet.

Lian Ming's store is next to a canteen.A slanting sun fell on the broken bricks and dirt mottled walls. He Yaning looked around and knocked on the old white door.

No movement.

He raised his wrist and looked at the time. Suddenly, there was a deafening bell from the second floor.Immediately after there was a ping-pong sound, He Yaning raised the corners of his mouth and smiled. He knew that Lian Ming had woken up.

"You really slept until you woke up naturally." Lian Ming opened the door, and this was He Yaning's first sentence.

Lian Ming was still wearing a chicken nest head, wearing an unrecognizable autumn clothes, yawning again and again, "What kind of shit wakes up naturally, I even set the alarm clock specially! It's not natural at all!"

He Yaning smiled and followed him into the house.

This small house was left by Lian Ming's grandfather, and it must have been there for some years.A few years ago, Lian Ming found a bucket of paint and said he wanted to decorate it, but in the end he just painted half of the wall and gave up halfway.After a long time, if the white is not white or yellow, it is better not to brush.

Lian Ming scooped up the clothes piled on the sofa, quickly picked up the pillows that had fallen on the ground, patted the ashes symbolically twice, and hurriedly greeted He Yaning, "Sit, sit!"

He Yaning shook his head with a smile and sat down.

"What time did you go to bed last night?" He Yaning looked at Lian Ming and yawned several times, "The dark circles under my eyes are so heavy."

Lian Ming stretched out his finger and compared a number, "Three o'clock."

"There is a big order recently." He Yaning teased.

"That's not it," Lian Ming raised his eyebrows and sniffed, "I didn't say that, it's getting harder and harder to handle now... If I'm found out, here's to it as soon as possible—"

He clapped his hands together, "Guan Zhang Daji."

"What about the stuff?" He Yaning asked him.

"You're a real person, you can't even listen to me?" Lian Ming smiled, hooked his feet on the coffee table in flip flops, and brought out a small cardboard box, "It's all here. Hey—don't Transfer money, give cash."

He Yaning smiled, opened the briefcase, and took out a thick leather envelope.Lian Ming took it, weighed it, and put it aside without taking it apart.

"Don't look at it?" He Yaning asked.

"Big lawyer, you don't want to cheat me with this little money." Lian Ming laughed, took out a cigarette from his trouser pocket, and put it in his mouth without lighting it, "Old He, let me remind you, This is the last time."

He Yaning glanced at him, it was not the first time Lian Ming said that.

"Powerful inhibitors are still banned in China. After all, the side effects are high and the risk is high." Lian Ming smoked a cigarette, his eyes unfocused, "I heard a little rumor from my friend, and now the outside is strictly investigating. If you are caught, you will have to eat in prison.”

"Then how do you make money?" He Yaning asked him back.

Hit the nail on the head.

Lian Ming graduated from a third-rate medical school, but couldn't find a decent job, so he opened a small clinic in a small alley, helping fellow villagers with headaches and brain fever.

Of course, being a barefoot doctor was barely enough to make ends meet, so he peddled a little illicit drugs along the way.He Yaning has bought medicine from him for two or three years.

"Oh," Lian Ming scratched his head in embarrassment, "I'll just be good for a while... Besides, this batch of medicine is enough for you to last for a while, save it, a month, no problem. Still There is a batch of goods, and I will send them to you in a few days."

He Yaning lowered his jaw and remained silent for a long time.

"Actually, I really advise you to find an alpha..." Receiving He Yaning's cold eyes, Lian Ming shrank his neck, but still persisted in finishing his sentence.

"You, don't think about it too complicated. Just treat it...just as a necessary means to solve the problem. It's not easy for a person to live in this life, why bother to make trouble for yourself. "

"You are quite open-minded." He Yaning smiled, "Okay, I see."

Lian Ming found the lighter from the messy coffee table, lit the cigarette with a "snap", bit his lips and took a breath, and then slowly exhaled, his eyes that seemed to never wake up became extraordinarily awake at this moment, "Be good to yourself Come on, don't make things difficult for yourself."

I don't know when the phone was hung up.Xiang Jie lowered his arm silently, the phone slipped from his sweaty palm and fell to the ground with a "snap".

Xiang Jie bent down, ready to pick up the phone.A dejected face was reflected on the darkened screen.He snapped back to his senses.

That is himself.

The clothes haven't been ironed yet!look at you!Xiang Jie bounced up immediately as if his ass had been pricked by a needle.He squeezed his fist and let it go.Now that he has a goal, he can't be so easily frustrated.

Xiang Jie, cheer up!He cheers himself up.

In fact, doing housework is not difficult, but the whole process is a bit tiring.He Yaning doesn't have many clothes. The suits are basically dry-cleaned, and there are only some shirts or underwear.The shirt was retracted and crumpled. If it was handed directly to He Yaning, his face would definitely stink.

——Xiang Jie is not stupid, he has already learned his lesson once.

"Electric iron, electric iron..." Xiang Jie muttered, remembering that this thing was still in He Yaning's bedroom.He Yaning had warned him not to go in without special circumstances.Xiang Jie hesitated for a moment, vacillating between being scolded earlier and scolded later.

Anyway, He Yaning is far away in the law firm and doesn't know the situation at home.Blame He Yaning for not putting the iron back after finishing ironing.

Thinking of this, Xiang Jie found a thousand and one reasons for himself, and bravely entered the employer's room.
