fierce dog

In the evening, when Mo Dong sent Song Zhou to school, Gu Yang happened to meet them at the gate of the community, and squeezed into their car.

"Bring me one." He quickly got into the car and sat in the co-pilot.

Mo Dong looked at him speechlessly: "Where did you come from?"

"I saw you when I went downstairs." Gu Yang put on his seat belt obediently, and in order to prevent Mo Dong from driving him out of the car, he hurriedly said to the driver, "Drive, master, everyone is here."

When they arrived at the school, Gu Yang rushed back to the dormitory because of the urgency to urinate, while Mo Dong and Song Zhou walked slowly.

"Don't forget tomorrow's class." Song Zhou said.

Mo Dong nodded: "Yeah."

"Is there no conflict with the tutoring class?"

"It's okay, we can coordinate."

As he walked, the dormitory building still appeared in front of his eyes, and Mo Dong felt a bit of reluctance in his heart.

He survived even though he hadn't seen each other for several months, but now he only has a week's class and can see each other on weekends, why is he so reluctant?

Standing downstairs in the dormitory, Song Zhou said: "I'm going up, you go back quickly, it will be dark in a while."

Mo Dong didn't know how to express the emotions in his heart, saying that he didn't want to separate seemed a bit too hypocritical.

So he lowered his eyes and just said, "Yeah."

"I'll find you when there's no class," Song Zhou said.

Mo Dong raised his head.

Taking advantage of no one around, Song Zhou kissed him on the lips and said softly, "Go back quickly."

"...it is good."

The next day, Mo Dong went to class. The cram school Song Zhou chose was fairly regular, and the teachers who taught the class were very experienced.

To his surprise, there were quite a lot of people attending the class. Most of them felt that the school or major was not good enough after graduation, and wanted to go back to university. Everyone was very hardworking, which made Mo Dong inexplicably excited.

After class in the afternoon, he had to rush to teach the children non-stop, and Mo Dong spent the next week like this.

Fortunately, Song Zhou kept his promise, and would come to him when there was no class, sometimes he would leave after cooking a meal, sometimes they would go for a walk in the park together, and sometimes they would just lie on the bed, hugging each other quietly .

After finally making it to the weekend, Mo Dong happily greeted Song Zhou who came back from school, thinking that they could finally spend two days of sweet time, when he suddenly received a phone call that no one expected.

When the phone rang, Song Zhou was cooking in the kitchen. While feeding the golden retriever, Mo Dong raised his head and shouted into the kitchen: "Your phone is ringing!"

"Who?"

Mo Dong wiped his hands, got up and looked at the phone, only the number was displayed on the screen: "I don't know who it is, there is no name."

Song Zhou was washing the vegetables, so he just said, "You pick it up for me."

Mo Dong picked up the phone and connected it: "Hi, who is it?"

"You..." The voice of an adult woman, about 40 years old, came from the receiver of the mobile phone. After a pause, she said, "You are Mo Dong?"

Mo Dong was stunned for a moment, then checked his phone number and said, "You know me?"

"I'm Li Chen."

After being dazed for a few seconds, Mo Dong walked to the kitchen in a daze, and handed the phone to Song Zhou.

Song Zhou turned his head and glanced at him: "Who is it?"

"Li Chen." Mo Dong whispered.

Song Zhou frowned and took the phone.

When the phone call ended, Mo Dong immediately asked, "Why is Li Chen calling you?"

Song Zhou put the phone aside, continued to lower his head to wash the dishes, his tone remained unchanged: "She said she would come to Beijing next week."

"What?" Mo Dong raised his voice and asked, "She wants to come to Beijing to find you?"

"I didn't come to see me, I just came to Beijing because of work, and then met me by the way." Song Zhou said.

For some reason, Mo Dong always felt that it was not that simple.

After thinking for a while, he asked, "Did she say what day she will come?"

"Next Friday night."

What work needs to be done on weekends?

Mo Dong didn't express the doubts in his heart. He glanced at Song Zhou who was still washing the vegetables, touched his stomach and changed the subject, "I'm already hungry, how long can I eat?"

Song Zhou put the washed vegetables on the chopping board and said to him, "If you are hungry, eat some bread first. There is still beef jerky on the table outside."

"Okay." Mo Dong turned and walked out of the kitchen.

After a week like this, Mo Dong got up early on Saturday, preparing to meet Li Chen later.

Song Zhou got up later than him. After waking up, he came out to the living room to look for him, hugged him sleepily and said, "Why did you get up so early?"

Mo Dong was drinking water, and looked back at him: "Aren't you going to have dinner with Li Chen at noon?"

"It's only ten o'clock."

"I'm nervous." As he said, Mo Dong picked up the water glass and took another big sip of water.

Song Zhou understood why Mo Dong was nervous, but he was afraid that Li Chen would say some nasty things again when they met.

Although she didn't know why she asked Mo Dong to transfer the tuition fee to him, at least the last time they met was not so pleasant.

But these harsh words might have stimulated him a few months ago, but not now.

Song Zhou reached out and touched Mo Dong's flat abdomen, and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine."

Mo Dong turned his head to look at him, his eyes were full of worry.

"Really." Song Zhou promised him earnestly.

Regardless of whether it was true or not, anyway, this meal was to be eaten, and Li Chen also had to see it.

Mo Dong and Song Zhou took a taxi to the hotel. Before entering the private room, he took several deep breaths to prepare himself for the battle.

Pushing open the door, Li Chen was already sitting inside. To their surprise, not only she was in the box, but also Song Zhou's grandparents.

"Are you here?" Seeing them coming in, Li Chen seemed to smile, but it was not so obvious that Mo Dong didn't see it clearly.

Li Chen had already ordered before they came, so now he only needs to ask the waiter to serve the food.

"You..." Li Chen looked at Mo Dong and Song Zhou, and finally fixed his gaze on Mo Dong, "You came to Beijing too?"

"En." Mo Dong nodded.

Li Chen didn't say anything, it just so happened that the waiter opened the door and came in to serve the food, and greeted them to eat.

The meal made Mo Dong terrified, but until the end, the scene he imagined did not happen.

Especially Song Zhou's grandparents, who simply asked Song Zhou how his life was recently, without mentioning anything else, and even asked Li Chen to cook for Song Zhou once.

After finishing the meal, Li Chen called Mo Dong out alone.

"Song Zhou's grandparents have something to say to Song Zhou alone, don't you mind?" She asked Mo Dong.

"Of course not." Mo Dong said.

Li Chen nodded: "It seems that I was right at the beginning, you and him are really good friends, and now they came to Beijing together."

The last time they met at the gate of the court, none of them knew where Song Zhou was at that time, only Mo Dong was always firm that he would find Song Zhou.

And he did find it, too.

"The time for the second trial has been set, just two months later." Li Chen said.

Mo Dong looked at her.

"When the time comes, if you have time, please take the time to come back." She said.

"Okay." Mo Dong paused, and then said, "Can I ask you a question?"

"Just ask."

"Did you really come to Beijing because of work?"

Li Chen smiled and looked at him: "Of course not."

After getting the answer, Mo Dong was still a little puzzled: "Why?"

"Some time ago I saw a lot of remarks about Song Zhou on the Internet. Although some of them were true and some were false, but..."

She didn't finish her words, but Mo Dong already understood.

At first, when Song Zhengguo news was published in local newspapers, although there were only a handful of them, there were still conspiracy theorists who speculated whether Song Zhou, who was at the scene of the crime that day, was involved in it.

In fact, not only them, even the members of the Li family, although they were not so vicious as to think that Song Zhou was an accomplice, once thought that Song Zhou was standing by and watching during the years of Li Yan's suffering.

That's why they didn't go to the detention center to look for Song Zhou immediately after the incident, and they didn't show a good face to Song Zhou at the funeral.Because apart from Li Yan's son, when we saw Song Zhou, we thought more about the son of the murderer who killed their daughter.

The sensational wife-killing case has been simmering locally for several months, and gradually some posts about Song Zhengguo began to appear on the Internet, many of which discussed Song Zhou, who is also the son of a murderer and the provincial champion.

The former neighbors, classmates, or just the vendors downstairs began to tell what they heard and saw - how Song Zhengguo degenerated step by step to where he is today, how he came home after drinking heavily and beat Li Yan and Song Zhou, There were even several times when they accidentally injured the neighbors who came to persuade them to fight.

It was also at this time that public opinion began to gradually reverse.

After a while, Song Zhou and his grandpa and grandma came out of the private room. Li Chen took a taxi by the side of the road, said goodbye to them and went back to the hotel.

Mo Dong stood at the entrance of the restaurant, looked at the bag in Song Zhou's hand, and asked him, "What is this?"

"They just gave it to me." Song Zhou said.

Mo Dong looked down, there were clothes inside.

"They said it's almost autumn and winter, so you need to wear thick clothes," Song Zhou said.

Mo Dong looked at Song Zhou, and found that his expression was somewhat bewildered.Just like a child who has never eaten sugar, he will not feel sweet when he tastes sugar for the first time, but will feel at a loss for this taste that he has never tasted before.

"They may want to make up for you." Mo Dong said.

Song Zhou asked him seriously; "Why do you want to make up for me?"

"I misunderstood you before." Mo Dong shrugged and said in a relaxed tone, "Maybe I regret it now, I should treat you better."

Song Zhou's brows were still furrowed, as if he didn't understand what he meant.

But it doesn't matter, you will always understand later.

"Let's go." Mo Dong raised his face and smiled at Song Zhou, "Let's go to a movie before you go to work in the afternoon."
