father's tree

Li Changen held Li Su in his arms, and gently patted Li Su's back which was still hiccupping.

Li Su remained silent, only hiccupping intermittently.

Li Changen's voice sounded in the silent night, softly and with pity, "Susu, don't be sad. You are my father's baby, you are not Cheng Dieyi in the movie. Even if the whole world doesn't accept you, but Dad's arms will always be yours. Dad loves you, everything I do is for you, I just hope you can be happy and carefree all your life."

Li Su buried her face in Li Changen's arms, put her head against Li Changen's chin, and hugged Li Changen tightly with her hands. Yes, he actually doesn't need the whole world, he just needs this embrace. Li Changen is enough.

Li Changen continued, "So, even if you are gay, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if you like boys like you. Dad won't reject you because society doesn't allow such things. Dad won't. As long as you are happy, I will I won't stop you, no matter what you are, I love you. Don't be sad, okay?"

After hearing this, Li Su was silent for a long time, hiccupped again, and then said in a muffled voice, "Dad, I don't like boys like me."

Li Changen didn't hear clearly, so he hugged him up a little bit, felt his son's breath in the dark, and asked, "What did you say?"

Li Su hiccupped again, "I don't like boys like me."

Li Changen was stunned for a moment, "You and Anwei, aren't you?"

Li Su shook her head, buried her head on Li Changen's shoulder, and said in a low voice, "We are just good friends."

Li Chang'en said, "Oh, then your school..."

Li Su said in a low voice, "A male classmate once pursued me, but I rejected him, so he said I was gay."

Li Changen was very surprised, "Why didn't you tell me before?"

Li Su said, "I told you, what can you do?"

Li Changen said angrily, "That kind of person, of course..." He wanted to teach the person who betrayed Li Su a lesson, but knowing that Li Su would be disgusted, he just said, "I will always find a way. Why didn't Susu tell me earlier."

Li Su said, "I don't care what they say at all, so..."

Li Changen felt sorry for Li Suman, stroked his back gently, and said, "Who is that male classmate?"

Li Su shook her head, "I don't want to say, Dad, don't ask, the matter will pass. Those people are not important to me at all. I don't care what they say or how they think of me."

Li Changen, "..."

Li Changen sighed again, his silly son always made him feel so distressed.

The next morning, Li Su solemnly put away the disk of Farewell My Concubine and put it on the bookshelf. He stood in front of the bookshelf and stared at the disk in a daze. , have breakfast, I'll take you to school."

Li Su said, "Uncle the driver can just take it off, don't be too tired."

Li Changen said, "No, I will see you off today, and I happen to want to go to your school too."

Li Su frowned, "You want to find my teacher, don't you?"

Li Changen said, "Yes, I want everyone to apologize to you, they hurt you badly by talking nonsense."

Li Su frowned even tighter, "Dad, can you just leave this matter alone? I don't feel happy at all if you make everyone apologize like this."

Li Changen, "But..."

Li Su hugged Li Changen, "No, don't talk about it. I don't care about them, but if you talk about it, I will feel bad."

Li Changen looked down at his son's soft hair, and touched it gently, so he said first, "Okay, I won't talk to your teacher, okay?"

Only then did Li Su let him go, and emphasized, "You must keep your word."

"Well, when did Dad stop talking?"

Later, Li Su found out that his father had actually told the teacher. Although no one came to apologize to him, the teachers looked at him no longer as before. If anyone spoke ill of him to his face, he would be called out. Go to the office for a lesson.

Li Su sighed in her heart, but there was nothing she could do.

After the mid-term exam, on Monday, the teacher suddenly asked someone to move a new set of desks into the classroom, and then brought a new classmate over.

Sitting in the first row, Li Su felt powerless when she saw An Wei who was standing on the podium introducing himself.

After An Wei finished introducing himself, he smiled at Li Su, who quickly lowered his head and read the book by himself, ignoring him.

The teacher said to Anwei, "That's your seat, go and sit down."

This relieved Li Su, who was stared at and laughed by An Wei, but when An Wei got off the podium and walked back, he stopped beside Li Su again, and said, "I turned around, and we will be together from now on." , Surprised or not?"

Li Su thought she was surprised but not happy at all.

Many people in the class saw An Wei and recognized him as the boy who beat someone for Li Su last time—Li Su's boyfriend.

Anwei became a man of the moment when he arrived. He was optimistic and cheerful, liked to laugh, and liked to talk to others. He immediately became one with the people around him in the back seat.

Someone asked him if he was Li Su's boyfriend, and he said, "We are good friends, and I am a man. Do you think I am a boyfriend?"

Everyone just laughed, as if he didn't even care if he was gay or not.

However, although he lived in the United States when he was a child, his English is still a mess. In Li Su's view, his grades are not worthwhile in any subject.

At noon, a driver came to pick Li Su home for dinner, and An Wei insisted on following him home for dinner on the first day, but Li Su had no choice but to take him with him.

From then on, he even wanted to go back to his house with Li Su to spend the night at his house. Naturally, Li Su was not happy, and refused to agree anyway. This kind of words made An Wei give up the idea of ​​living with him from now on.

Because of An Wei's arrival, no one in the class dared to say that he was gay, and other people in the class who used to like to look at Li Su did not dare now, because although An Wei had a cheerful personality, he was too gay. He couldn't bear it anymore, he would find someone to fight with anyone who discriminated against Li Su a little bit.

As for the matter of finding someone to fight with, it reached its peak after he came to Haitang Middle School for more than half a month.

It was their school's sports meeting. Li Su never participated in any sports and only worked as a cheerleader. When he wrote the broadcast script and was about to read it to the students on the broadcast, suddenly a girl ran up to him and called him, "Li Su , No, Anwei is fighting again."

Li Su didn't want to pay attention to this kind of thing anymore, and said flatly, "He's out of my control, why don't you call me?"

The girl said, "The beating was too severe. That boy is in the second grade. He has already called an ambulance."

Li Su, "..."

Li Su easily thought that it was Cheng Ge who was beaten. When he followed the girl to the low wall behind the playground, there was already a circle of people there. An Wei's face was also injured, and Cheng Ge Lying on the ground, it is indeed impossible to get up.

Li Su ran over, and An Wei looked at him, his eyes were very quiet, so quiet that Li Su knew that he beat him like this on purpose to get revenge on Cheng Ge, there was no hint of a joke in his expression, and he didn't feel sorry for him at all. Singer Cheng meant to show mercy.

Li Su stood there, stunned, not knowing what to say for a moment.

The teacher has already arrived, Cheng Ge was taken away by ambulance, and An Wei also went to the hospital for examination.

Li Su didn't follow, he didn't stay in school in the afternoon, but went to Tang Wenyan's studio.

Tang Wenyan has gone abroad and will not come back for about half a month. Li Su and An Wei draw by themselves, and then offer advice to each other. When Tang Wenyan comes back, they will give advice and pointers.

Li Su sat under the window in the studio, it was nearly June, the weather was already hot, the sun shone through the window through the gaps in the branches, and the stars were shining brightly.

Li Su looked up through the window at the crumbs of sunlight that was blown wildly by the wind.

It seems that An Wei knew that he would come to the studio, so he also came to the studio afterwards.

When Li Su came, he was still looking at the sun, as if his soul had left his body and flew away with the light.

An Wei took a stool and sat down beside him, looking at Li Su's white and almost transparent face under the abundant summer light, Li Su was like a porcelain doll, the most delicate and fragile white porcelain with a thin body. Thin as a layer of paper, facing the light, it will be transparent like glass, it is so delicate and beautiful, people can't help but love him, but at the same time, they also know that even a slight bump will shatter him .

An Wei whispered, "Susu, I'm sorry."

After a while, Li Su turned to face him and said, "It's nothing, I know, you are because of me."

An Wei said, "But I know, you are still angry with me."

Li Su said, "No, I just don't like to use violence to deal with things. Besides, your hands are used for drawing, and you always fight. What should you do if you hurt your hand?"

An Wei said, "Painting is not my life, but my love. Therefore, when I hit him, I don't have to worry about my hands."

Li Su looked at An Wei silently, Li Su's eyes were in sufficient and bright light, black and white were distinct, and pupils were clear, but such faintness made An Wei feel a little sad.

He knew that Li Su had no love for him.

However, he still wanted to say, "Susu, I hit him because I love you, which is the love of homosexuality, and in this society, the public accepts that a man loves a woman and wants to hug her and kiss her and She has sex, marriage and children is the same love, that's how I love you. I know you don't have this kind of feeling for me now, but it's okay, I will always be by your side, until you have this kind of feeling for me .”

Li Su didn't answer, because An Wei had said everything.

He stood up calmly and walked out of the studio slowly.

Anwei sat there watching him, without calling him.
