Xiao Lang Jing

Song Qiran seemed to be asleep.Zhao Meng lightly lifted the man up, and a gentle snort fell from the back of his neck, itchy, and he suppressed a smile. He knew that Song Qiran was not asleep, and was lying on his back blowing into the hollow of his neck.

At that time, it was just dawn, and there was a thin coolness in the morning light. Zhao Meng put the dry coat on Song Qiran's head, covering the top of the two people's heads and Song Qiran wrapped his two arms.

Song Qiran caught a cold last night, and now he has a fever, Zhao Meng forgave him for being naughty.

"Does your leg still hurt?" Song Qiran asked him close to his ear.

"It's gone for a long time. If you don't move around, you can go down the mountain in a while."

"There are snakes in the mountains, you should watch them while walking."

Zhao Meng was taken aback.

"How do you know there is a snake, you saw it?"

"I saw one in the woods yesterday." Song Qiran replied.

"Scared? Didn't you get bitten?"

Song Qiran shook his head.

"No, I threw a stone at it and the snake ran away."

Zhao Meng raised his eyebrows.

"Okay, you're not afraid of snakes, why are you afraid of chickens?"

Song Qiran pinched Zhao Meng's face.

"Everyone has things to fear, some are born, some are nurtured, and some have no explanation at all."

He added,

"But I'm not afraid of anything you're afraid of, and I can protect you."

The corners of Zhao Meng's lips tapped.

"What am I afraid of?"

"You are afraid of many things. You are afraid of the weather with loud thunder, you are afraid of the cold, you are afraid of having nightmares, you are afraid that someone will bully your family, and you are afraid of getting sick. You can be reimbursed by medical insurance when you go to the doctor, but Aunt Xia believes in Chinese medicine. She likes to give you Medicine, you hate the taste, you pour it out secretly every time."

Zhao Meng was so embarrassed that his whole face was burning.He didn't expect Song Qiran to know this. This little guy dangled around under his nose all day, seeing everything in his eyes, but he just didn't say anything.

But it's different now, Zhao Meng has one more thing on his list of fears, he has Song Qiran, Song Qiran likes him, and he will never have anything more precious than that liking in his life.Song Qiran has become his weakness, and he is afraid that others will know this.

"All right, all right, you protect me." Zhao Meng followed his words, "I'll give Ah Huang a good bath when I get back today, wash it clean, and tie a rope for you to hold in your hand. Even chickens are afraid of it, if you hug Ah Huang, they won't dare to fly in front of you."

Song Qiran thought about it, he sounded very happy, and answered "Okay" with a flying smile in his voice.

They stepped on the morning dew and returned home. Zhao Dong was not sleeping. He knew that his brother would come back, and he was already standing at the gate of the courtyard waiting for them. There was hot water in the water heater. Zhao Meng was very moved and hurried Song Qiran and the two went to take a hot shower together.

Zhao Dong brought him a new set of autumn clothes, saying that his second sister was still sleeping, and his mother had left two bowls of noodle soup on the stove, so he could boil water and reheat it before eating.Zhao Meng thanked him and went to gather firewood, leaving Zhao Dong leaning against the bathroom door, watching Song Qiran tilt his neck and slowly dry the water from his hair with a towel.

Song Qiran was only wearing a white T-shirt and a pair of shorts. His slender legs were clean, without any scratches, and there was not even a callus on his heels.Facing those legs, Zhao Dong frowned.

"Is that why you have such a problem with me?" Song Qiran said suddenly.

The wet hair covered a part of his eyes, but the uncomfortable atmosphere that Zhao Dong had felt before still diffused in the small space.

Now Zhao Dong can be sure that when Song Qiran consciously looked at him like this, the chill that came from his back was not his own illusion.

"You were the one who followed me down the mountain yesterday?" Zhao Dong asked.

Yesterday he was rushed home by Zhao Meng, and he searched around the hut for several times, but he didn't see Song Qiran's figure, but on the way down the mountain, he suddenly felt uncomfortable, as if there was a look stuck in his eyes. Same on my own back.

"Yes." Song Qiran replied.

"What are you following me for? Did you deliberately let me go down the mountain alone?"

"It was intentional, but it was also a temporary decision." Song Qiran replied, "I just want to follow you and see if you will continue to do some stupid things."

Song Qiran looked at him with clear eyes, but there was a terrifying sense of oppression, Zhao Dong realized something, he turned sideways, and looked away.

He was seen during the day yesterday, he thought.

"Why did you check our mobile phone yesterday?" Song Qiran continued to ask.

After chasing away the snake in the woods yesterday, Song Qiran returned the same way, and was indeed seen by him. He looked around for Zhao Dong who hadn't found anyone near the house, and took advantage of the time Zhao Meng didn't notice when he was working on the roof. I went into the shed and looked through the mobile phones they put on the hollow bricks one by one.All mobile phones have password locks, and he didn't see anything of value.

"I just want to confirm the relationship between you and my brother."

Hearing Zhao Dong's answer, Song Qiran put down the towel.

"What do you think our relationship is?"

"I don't know." Zhao Dong looked irritable for a moment, and the sudden emotion gave him courage, and he glared in Song Qiran's direction, "My brother shouldn't have anything to do with you, should he? You are the two kinds of people who are unlikely to become friends. But your behavior is too natural sometimes. My brother has some small habits, such as when eating dumplings, he never eats meat stuffing with soy sauce, but my father and second sister I like to eat them all, so whenever my mother makes dumplings, I always make two servings of meat filling, and I order one for my brother separately. You are not part of our family and have never lived with us. It is impossible to know such details. But when you were eating dumplings for dinner, you went to the kitchen to help serve the bowls, and no one told you how to put them, so you automatically gave us the dark bowls and the light bowls to my brother. My brother doesn’t eat ginger, and the dipping sauce for the dumplings was adjusted separately, and you got it right. It might just be a coincidence that you got it right once, but you guessed it right twice. You shouldn’t be so familiar with my brother’s Living habits, you live together, don't you?"

Song Qiran looked at Zhao Dong for a long time, until the steaming heat in the bathroom slowly cooled down.When he spoke again, there was no warmth in his tone.

"If you have doubts, you should ask directly. You shouldn't say those tentative things to your brother, it hurts."

Zhao Dong's palms tightened.

"Those things about girlfriends are all made up," Song Qiran asked him, "I registered your Amazon account for you. I read your background records. You are a very hardworking and good student. One night, I started looking for books from above. You read everything from original texts, professional books, and popular science books, but your progress in each book is very close, which means that you are almost non-stop I'm reading a book, a person who has to work and save money for a girl student he likes, doesn't he even have time to make phone calls or chat with his girlfriend? You sleep in the same room with Zhao Lin, and Zhao Lin personality, the matter of falling in love will not be a secret at all, there is no need to confess to your brother in that private way."

Zhao Dong's eyes widened in surprise.When he mentioned his girlfriend's hobbies under the guise of being in love, he still had only slight doubts, but when Song Qiran made it clear in front of his face, the frightening guess in his heart seemed to be verified.

His expression sank.

"Why do you want to provoke my brother?"

He asked directly, and Song Qiran answered directly.

"I like your brother."

"My brother is the eldest son of the family. He wants to get married and have children to continue the family tradition. My dad has a bad heart. He has high hopes for his elder brother. You are harming our family."

Song Qiran frowned.

"Except for what you said, I will not let him suffer any grievances."

Zhao Dong suddenly laughed, very contemptuously.

"Isn't what I said enough? I can see that you have money, a city mansion, and a very capable person. But what can you give my brother, you are obviously sick."

Song Qiran's eyes trembled, this conversation was beyond his expectation.

"You have a brain disease, and the disease of the brain cannot be cured. I checked the instructions on the medicine bottle. You are a mental patient and will drag my brother down for the rest of his life."

The sound of porcelain bowls being smashed came from the yard behind him. Zhao Dong turned around and found his elder brother standing outside the bathroom door.

Zhao Meng's face was dark, and he turned his face completely, and every rough line on his body revealed suppressed anger.

Song Qiran clenched his hands hanging on both sides of his body.He really didn't expect Zhao Dong to check his medicine bottle, Zhao Meng heard that sentence just now, it was a very hurtful sentence, not just for himself.

"Take back what you just said." Zhao Meng pushed the bathroom door completely open with a cold face, and the door smashed against the wall, making a loud noise.Ah Huang in the firewood room yelled twice.

Zhao Dong's facial expressions quickly switched between surprise, hesitation, anger, and incomprehension. For more than 20 years, he watched Zhao Meng's tall neck grow up all the way, and regarded him as his role model, and even loved him at home because of him. All the grievances I suffered were voluntary.

"Brother! I'm your own brother! This is just an outsider!"

"Take it back!"

Zhao Meng roared, and Song Qiran rushed over to cover his mouth, grabbed the man's vest and dragged him into the room. Zhao Meng's limbs were like sawn steel strips tied together, and he was heavy. , tall and strong, when he is stubborn and unwilling to move, no one can shake him.

Song Qiran glanced at the main house across the yard, a light came on, and his eyelids began to twitch.

"Go back to the room first." He grabbed Zhao Meng's arm and held his side face with one hand to calm his emotions.Zhao Meng's eyes were bloodshot, as if he hadn't slept for several days and nights, Song Qiran's heart was full of alarms, he directly pressed his whole body against him, and turned his head to signal Zhao Dong to leave quickly with warning eyes.

Such an intimate action stimulated Zhao Dong's nerves. It reminded Song Qiran in front of him that he was not only familiar with his elder brother's living habits, but also with his elder brother's emotional changes. The two of them had already formed a solid relationship. did it.The two of them should have been like this for a while, the two men, as long as Zhao Dong thinks about it, he feels that they are simply too blatant and too rampant.

"Brother, wake up! This is wrong! This is abnormal! This is a disease!"

Zhao Meng pushed Song Qiran away, picked up a firewood stick from the nearest wall, stepped forward and grabbed his brother's shoulder to hit him.

The door of the main house opened, and Zhao Lin, who was bleary-eyed in slippers, and Mother Zhao, who was terrified in a blanket, ran out.

Zhao Dong was hit on the back, and he cried out in pain.

Zhao's mother turned pale with fright, and hurried up to grab the elder son's arm.Zhao Lin froze in fright, and Zhao's mother yelled several times before she came to her senses, helped Zhao Dong who had fallen to the ground, and stood behind her.

Since as long as he can remember, the elder brother has never touched her or the younger brother.There are times when I’m angry, and it’s okay to raise my voice and curse a few words, but every time my father gets impatient and wants to copy something and hit someone, the one who jumps out to stop him is always the elder brother.

Zhao Dong cried, as if he had been greatly wronged and betrayed, his nose was red from crying, he grabbed the sleeve of his sister's pajamas, angrily looked at Zhao Meng who was so angry that he couldn't speak, and Zhao Meng was still standing behind his back. Song Qiran with a cold face.Brothers were forced to fight, but Song Qiran just stared at Zhao Meng's back as if all this had nothing to do with him. In Zhao Dong's eyes, he only felt that he was selfish, cold-blooded, and harmful to others. The behavior and psychology are not normal.

"What's the noise in the morning!"

Father Zhao roared, and he walked out holding the door frame, standing on the steps and looking puzzled at the eldest son who suddenly became angry and the younger son who was full of anger.His expression suddenly became hesitant.

"Don't stop me! Hit! Boss wants to hit, let him hit! He must have his reasons! Hit is fine! Don't leave after both of them, tell me clearly why you hit someone, if you don't know clearly , No one wants to go out through this door today!"

Zhao's father was very hot-tempered when he was young. As the head of the Zhao family, he always said that he was the same. All three children have learned his severe lessons, but after getting older, his heart condition has been up and down. They all looked at him nervously, Zhao Meng's raised hand paused for a while in the air, and then put it down again.

"Linlin, take Mom back to the house first." He said to his sister, then turned his head to look at Song Qiran, "Everyone go back to the house first, I have something to clarify with Dad."

Song Qiran stared at Zhao Meng closely, shaking his head silently at him.Zhao Meng glanced at him, but his expression remained unchanged.

"Go back to the house."

He begged everyone, until Zhao Lin flinched and grabbed Mother Zhao's hand.

Several people in the yard went into the house separately, leaving only Zhao Meng, Zhao Dong, and Father Zhao standing in front of them waiting for an explanation.

Zhao Meng threw the firewood stick in his hand to the ground with a bang.Just when Zhao Dong thought he was going to continue to get angry at him, Zhao Meng fell to his knees without warning.His knee smashed loudly on the concrete floor of the yard, Zhao Dong was stunned and couldn't say a word.

Because of the elder son's kneeling, Father Zhao's heart was greatly shaken, and he had a very unusual premonition.He didn't realize that when he spoke again, his whole body seemed to be rapidly aging and weakening.

"Speak." He still breathed out just two words.
