senior [rebirth]

Xu Hanlai drove fast and steadily, and drove away on the road in tandem with Liu Hao.

Lin Xi sat in the back seat and looked to the side, witnessing the "northern scenery" that Liu Hao called—in fact, running all the way along the green belt by the river, on the very quiet side of the river, watching the other side of the river gradually become silent in the night sky down the city.

That scene was really good, especially the North District was different from the way they had just gone to the Mancheng Bridge.Most of the other side of the river here are commercial office buildings, and there are some historical buildings with retro shapes, and the flow of people is huge on weekdays.It suddenly became quiet at this moment, and there was a little bit of light in the night, but it didn't have a special flavor.

Even though Lin Xi lived two lifetimes, it seems that he has never appreciated such a refreshing scenery.He was not good at digging out the beauty of these cities in the past, and the descendants of the pet cafes basically stayed in their own world. Looking at it now, he couldn't help saying, "beautiful."

Xu Han glanced to the side, then slowed down the car, and said, "Let's see."

As soon as the wheels rolled slowly, they immediately distanced themselves from Liu Hao and the others who were speeding all the way ahead.At this point, the street itself was empty enough, and when separated from Liu Hao and the others, it seemed that there were only Lin Xi and Xu Hanlai left in the surrounding space.

It seems that only they are watching the lights of the city and enjoying the temperature of the city.

The world is quiet.

Lin Xi sat in the back seat, recalling what the senior said just now, paused for a long time, and finally couldn't help but whispered to the senior's back under the woody fragrance pouring in from the front seat: "Senior, you are so kind .”

This is what he has always wanted to say in his last life, but Lin Xi couldn't say such a direct praise at the beginning. This is something he regretted very much later.

At that time, he would always think that if Xu Hanlai knew that the elementary school boy he had helped would be so grateful to him from the bottom of his heart, and would pay a huge price to help him, as long as the senior made a phone call, he would be able to leave his pet coffee and go north.

Wouldn't it help him to live a little bit better in the difficult days of isolation?

Lin Xi was thinking about it, when the senior in front of him paused for two seconds after hearing his words, then laughed and said, "Huh? That's great?"

Lin Xi saw him smiling indulgently from the rearview mirror, and his heart tightened a little.For a moment, his affection for Xu Hanlai seemed to suddenly swell again, and it almost became a little uncontrollable, which made him want to get closer to the senior.Mountain: and: three: タ.

She couldn't help but want to really lean her body towards his back and touch him.

But this idea was too absurd. It didn't take long for Lin Xi to push him down. He just pressed his forehead against Xu Hanlai's back to relieve it, and said, "...well, that's really good."

Feeling the movement of the elementary school boy behind him shrinking suddenly, the expression on Xu Hanlai's face in front suddenly fell silent for a while.He thinks this kid is really easy to coax, and he can say such words after taking a look at the beautiful scenery with him, as if he has never been loved by anyone.

So he sighed softly, and stopped teasing him, just continued to show him the eMule slowly.

Lin Xi was really well-behaved, Xu Hanlai asked him to put his hand on his waist, even though he was embarrassed, he kept holding it.And when the speed of the car slowed down, Xu Hanlai clearly felt the hands falling on his waist, and subconsciously reached out to shake them.

The people behind him suddenly became nervous, but his voice was very natural: "The temperature has dropped, is it cold?"

Lin Xi finally returned home with a fiery heart in his hands.

Because of the gentleness of the senior, he walked erratically, until when he opened the door of Lin's house, he bumped into Lin Meiling who was drinking water in the living room.

She didn't know if she hadn't fallen asleep or woke up in the middle of it. Anyway, her complexion was not very good. When she saw Lin Xi who came in through the door, she frowned and said in a displeased voice, "Why did you go out?"

Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, and then said: "After the final exam today, I went out to play with my friends... I told my uncle before."

Lin Meiling frowned, as if recalling something.

Lin Xi knew from looking at her expression that Li Rende must have told her, but Lin Meiling forgot about it later.So he stopped answering, lowered his head and silently took off his shoes.

Then I heard Lin Meiling ask him: "What friend?"

Lin Xi put the shoes he took off into the shoe rack, and at the same time replied calmly: "Student."

"Why are you playing so late at this age?" Lin Meiling said, and then she seemed to smell something in the air, and said sharply, "Have you been drinking? You started drinking before you were an adult?"

Lin Xi: "..."

He sighed softly, and suddenly felt that it was good for Lin Meiling not to ask him in the past, at least he would not let him hear such harsh questions.

Both of them knew how sensitive drinking was in the Lin family.In the past, every time after Gao Yiliang gambled, no matter whether he won or lost, he would have a "drink" or two, and then he would go home drunk and do something that disgusted them all.

And Lin Meiling is now asking Lin Xi if he has been drinking too.

After a moment of silence, Lin Xi still answered, and said in a low voice: "No, Mom, I didn't drink. I just went out to relax with my friends after the exam. They are all good classmates and don't drink."

Then when Lin Meiling wanted to say something, she took the lead and ended the topic: "I'm a little tired, I want to take a shower and go to sleep, if you have anything to say, can I talk about it tomorrow morning?"

When Lin Xi said this, he looked at Lin Meiling.

It was past two o'clock at night, and the space between mother and child was only illuminated by a little light in the kitchen.Lin Xi is still quite short at the moment, a little shorter than Lin Meiling, and although her face looks a little more fleshy and her energy is better, her overall body is still very thin.

Fortunately, when facing Lin Meiling, there seemed to be a little more tenacity in the aura.Occupying a corner independently, the attitude is neither humble nor overbearing, even with a bit of obvious alienation.

…It is exactly the same as when Lin Meiling was in a hurry to leave home and advised her to remember to bring the keys.

But it is different from Lin Xi who wanted to walk with his mother when he was a child.

Lin Meiling's voice choked up, and for a moment she seemed to want to say something, but found that because she hadn't spoken for a long time, Lin Xi had already turned her head and walked into the room, without giving her a chance to speak this time.

At the same time, Li Rende, who heard the voice, came out of the bedroom and hurriedly pulled her back.

It was almost three o'clock in the morning after taking a shower and going to bed. Lin Xi talked to Li Rende who ran out again, dried his hair and went back to the room.Out of habit, after entering the bed, I silently turned on my phone, wanting to send a message to my senior.

The content is very simple, just "senior good night".

Then I found that Xu Hanlai quickly recovered him as usual, and when he said "good night", Lin Xi paused for two seconds in the bed, and suddenly smiled as if he had eaten some candy.

Any other unhappiness disappeared.

Immediately after closing his eyes and falling asleep, Lin Xi had a dream.In the dream, his biological father, Gao Yihao, seemed to be alive until he was in college, the atrocities continued, and Lin Xi's character became much weirder than his two lifetimes combined.He seems to often stay in the laboratory in a white coat for a whole day, and other people pass by him from time to time, but they hardly communicate with him——I think he has a strange temper and the scar on his face Scary, like poking your eyes out.

Among the crowd coming and going, only a very gentle voice would stop by his side, asking if he had eaten, how he was doing with today's experiment, and whether he was being bullied because he was in a bad mood.

In the end, he even accompanied Gao Yiliang to court.

After so long, the lawsuit was actually a bit troublesome, but the man never seemed impatient, and accompanied him to collect evidence, accompany him to appear in court, and accompany him to negotiate with a lawyer.On the day Gao Yiliang was sentenced for the crime of intentional wounding, Lin Xi drank the milk that the voice had prepared for him, and once stammered a question in a very low voice.

To the effect that, why treat him so well?

At that time, the tone of the voice sounded plain: "When you see injustice, you draw your sword to help?"

Then when Lin Xi was a little stunned, he cheered up and said, "Because you are cute."

In the dream, Lin Xi couldn't see his own appearance, but he felt that his face must have been flushed.Because the voice quickly laughed, then leaned forward, pinched his cheek, and even at the end, bowed down and kissed his scar.

When the opponent's body and breath approached him, and finally merged with him, Lin Xi felt his heart suddenly popped by something, and then quickly woke up from his sleep.

The sun was shining brightly outside the window, and it was already noon.

The fragments in the dream gradually disappeared from Lin Xi's mind. He stared at the sun for a long time, and only vaguely remembered that in the dream, he called that person as if he was also a "senior".
