Crossflow

After half an hour.

In the pitch-black room, the only source of light came from the moonlight coming in from the window, and the warm street lamps in the yard, which barely allowed people to distinguish the outline of the object and the bulge on the bed.

Tao Fengche was lying flat on the bed wrapped in a quilt, his eyes stared straight at the ceiling, as if there was some century-old problem that needed to be solved urgently, but the focus of his gaze was scattered in the air—in a word, there was no no focus.

Tao Fengche has been lying on the bed in the same position for more than half an hour since he learned about his intentions.

In one day, he traveled to and from both ends of Jingpu, and tried his best to fight with two old foxes. Logically speaking, he should fall asleep as soon as he touches the pillow, but he is not sleepy now, and he still seems to have an overly lively one in his heart. I don't know whether it kicked wildly on his heart or danced desperately. In short, Tao Fengche's heart rhythm was disordered by it, so that he couldn't maintain a stable breathing rate.

There seemed to be hazy dust floating in the air, but when Tao Fengche took a closer look, it suddenly disappeared, followed by a sharp stabbing pain, scattered from the eye sockets, and the eyeballs were so dry Terrible, he closed his eyes reflexively, reached out and groped on the bedside table for a while, and found a bottle of eye drops.

The clear liquid dripped into the eyes, bringing a familiar minty feeling, the effect can be said to be immediate, Tao Fengche closed his eyes and rolled his eyes, and let out a long breath.

...Speaking of which, Sui Yuesheng gave him eye drops for the first time.

Such a sentence suddenly popped up in Tao Fengche's mind, and immediately after that, he lost his mind again.

When he was a child, his eyelashes were long, and they would easily fall into his eyes, and they would come out after rubbing with his hands, but they couldn't come out that day, and his whole eye was red, like a pitiful rabbit.

Xu Song held the eye drops in his hand, and stood anxiously at the side, but he couldn't help - Tao Fengche was very resistant to the matter of eye drops, he tried a few times just now, but the latter didn't close his eyes due to conditioned reflex , Just struggling desperately, no matter how hard it dripped in, no matter what, after a few times, the child's eyes were filled with tears, as if he was about to cry in the next second.

Sui Yuesheng watched the whole process with a cold face, and said abruptly: "Let me try."

Tao Fengche sobbed twice, looked up at his brother, struggled for half a second, and obediently moved over.

Two minutes later, Tao Fengche's head rested on Sui Yuesheng's lap, and Sui Yuesheng held him in his arms. For the first time in his life, he was dripped with eye drops, which made him shiver from the cold.

Afterwards, he has been using this brand of eye drops for many years. Two years ago, when the company's scandalous news broke out and the stock plummeted, he even instructed Xu Song to use his lucky money to buy their stock. Practicing investing and buying bottoms in stocks is actually because I am afraid that the company will go bankrupt and there will be no eye drops for me in the future.

...It won't work like this.

Seeing the tendency of the memory to be unable to stop the car, Tao Fengche hastily withdrew from it, murmured to himself, lay flat for a long time, and finally decided to follow his heart.

He turned over, reached out, picked up the phone from the bedside table, unlocked it after verifying the face ID, and then opened the chat software. The operation was smooth and smooth, and it was the result of many simulations in his mind.

Immediately afterwards, Tao Fengche fell into deep thought as he faced the chat window marked "Brother".

[Brother, I miss you so much! ]

No, no, too enthusiastic, it seems a bit naive.

Tao Fengche quickly deleted this line of words from the input box, unconsciously bit his lower lip, and typed again.

[Brother, the pasture has recently delivered new milk. ]

No, no, this seems a bit strange, and after saying this, Sui Yuesheng must know that he cooked the milk before going to bed every night, including the spoiled cup, which was also his handwriting...

Tao Fengche's face was full of horror, he rolled on the bed, cleared the input box again, frowned slightly and started typing again, as if he was not facing a chat window, but a life-threatening situation. battle.

He considered his words carefully, trying to make his tone more mature, like a reliable man, not that little devil who only cried and ran around behind Sui Yuesheng's ass, then he raised his airs, He reservedly typed a line of words.

[Tao Fengche]: [Brother, I have arrived home safely, and everything is going well at work, and I will continue to study at the research institute tomorrow, how is it going with you? ]

The last time he contacted Sui Yuesheng was two days ago - he sent the latter a text message to report his work arrangement for the next stage.That night, he waited for nearly two hours before Sui Yuesheng's reply came late.

Tao Fengche seized this hard-won opportunity, and successfully pestered Sui Yuesheng's friends who had joined social software. This was the first time they talked on software. Tao Fengche was ready to wait for at least an hour. , but this time, Sui Yuesheng's reply came very quickly.

【Suiyuesheng】: [Fortunately, nothing happened.It is one thing for you to go to the graduate school to study, but the school can't be left behind.How is your summer homework going? ]

"..."

The disguise of Tao, a mature man, Feng Che was quickly punctured by this understatement, and he was immediately beaten back to his original form.

The sullen male high school student pursed his lips.

【Tao Fengche】: [After finishing writing, do you have anything else to say to me? ]

As soon as the message was sent, Tao Fengche felt that something was wrong. The words seemed to be filled with resentment, full of dissatisfaction with Sui Yuesheng.He frantically wanted to withdraw the message, but the line of remarks on the chat box had become the characters "The other party is typing...", he closed his eyes and turned his mind, trying to change the subject.

【Tao Fengche】: [Do you need me to take pictures for you to check? ]

"The other party is typing..." It lasted for a few minutes, and when Tao Fengche began to doubt whether Sui Yuesheng had written a small paper, the latter's reply finally came.

[Suiyue Sheng]: [No need to take pictures, I will be back in a few days, let's check directly when I come back. ]

[Suiyuesheng]: [Is there anything you want?I'll bring you some presents back. ]

...Foul!Brother, you made a foul!

Tao Fengche never expected that he would receive such an answer, the air seemed to be filled with a strong smell of maple syrup, so sweet that it was a bit cloying.He froze for a moment, as if he hadn't reacted. The next second, Tao Fengche's eyes widened. The smile in his eyes couldn't be hidden, and then spread all the way to the corner of his mouth.

【Tao Fengche】: [As long as it is a gift from my brother, I like it no matter what it is. ]

【Tao Fengche】: [Everything is here with me at home, you don't have to worry, you must pay attention to safety when you come back, remember to tell me, I will ask Uncle Xu to pick you up. ]

With the moon born a contempt.His Karlmann King is still parked in the parking lot of Dow's head office, and he can just ask the driver to pick him up when the time comes, there is no need to bother the people at the ancestral house at all.

But the concern hidden in Tao Fengche's words made him feel very ironic, so he didn't remind Tao Fengche of this matter. After recalling for a while, he put down the half-read financial statement in his hand, and flipped through the notebook he carried with him.

【Suiyuesheng】: [Okay, but there are still some things to do. ]

【Tao Fengche】: [Is it something about the company?Is there anything I can do to help? ]

[Suiyuesheng]: [You may not be able to help with this. ]

No, what is so important?

He is the dignified Tao family heir, the only surviving Tao family blood, why can't he help?

Could it be related to Jiang Jingyun again?

Tao Fengche frowned, stretched out his hand and poked the screen resentfully, as if poking Sui Yuesheng's face through the screen.

The reply from the other side came quickly.

[Suiyuesheng]: [I have to come back and hold a parent-teacher meeting for you. ]

Sui Yuesheng typed such a line in a good mood.

Tao Fengche has been promoted to a third grade since the beginning of school. After the preliminary examination, there will be a parent-teacher meeting for the whole grade. Before the summer vacation, Feng Hui once specially sent a school newsletter to emphasize the importance of this matter.

Ever since Tao Fengche complained that he didn't care about his own affairs, Sui Yuesheng specially wrote down his related affairs in his notebook, and even backed up with Assistant Zhou, even the calendar in his mobile phone. Add it up and strive to be a perfect guardian.

Suddenly received a message from Tao Fengche today, Sui Yuesheng pondered for three seconds, and quickly misunderstood Tao Fengche's intentions.

——He thought the latter was coming to remind him not to forget the parent meeting, but he mistook the sentence "what's the matter" for fishing law enforcement.

But he didn't forget this time, he remembered everything related to Tao Fengche clearly.

Sui Yuesheng curled his lips, stretched out his hand to peel a piece of candy and threw it into his mouth. When he looked down at the phone, he found that Tao Fengche, who always responded to messages in seconds, hadn't sent a reply for a long time.

He glanced at the time, and it took half a second to calculate the time difference. He felt that Tao Fengche must have fallen asleep, so he didn't take this matter to heart. He took off his glasses and dripped eye drops, picked up the report and continued where he was before. read on.

···

Early the next morning, Tao Fengche sat in the back seat of the car with a dark face, staring back and forth at the chat log from last night, as if he had a boxing ring in his mind, with two villains standing on it, Crazy fight each other.

One of the villains sighed: "Sui Yuesheng actually treats you like a child, right? He doesn't mean that at all. It's just an old man who is just being passionate and crazy to add to the chaos. Now it's all right. I'll leave you here alone in unrequited love."

Its eyes were full of pity, and its whole body glowed with holy light, like the rebirth of the Virgin Mary. The next second, another villain rushed forward and punched it away with an uppercut.

"How can you think so?! Sui Yuesheng is so busy at work! You still care about him so much, even the parents' meeting is always on your mind!" It argues.

The little man with a bruised nose and a swollen face climbed up from the other end, angrily: "Doesn't this just mean that Sui Yuesheng only treats him as a child?!"

"But didn't Xu Song let go of the parent meeting before? Tao Zhixing can count on one hand the number of times Tao Zhixing has held parent meeting for him!"

"That doesn't mean..."

"You fart! Listen to me!"

The two villains quickly huddled together, Tao Fengche didn't know who to listen to, the balance in his heart fluctuated, and the expressions on his face were as colorful as if he had knocked over the palette.
