Duan Nian looked at his watch, it was already past ten o'clock, Tang Mianjin should have taken a shower and got ready to sleep on the bed.Thinking of the children at home, he couldn't help laughing. The nightmare made the relationship between the two of them develop rapidly, but it also made his own children feel very terrified every day. Like the poor boy, he didn't know whether to be grateful or hate this nightmare.

He went to the restaurant that Tang Mianjin liked to buy noodles, and asked the boss to add more lobster meat. When the boss heard that it was a young man who often visited his house, he added a few spoonfuls of shrimp meat without saying a word.

He returned to the Tang family mansion, pushed open the door of Tang Mianjin's room, and saw Tang Mianjin sitting on the bed with a pale face.

Because of his appearance, Tang Mianjin seemed to be angry with others with a cold face when he was silent, but as soon as he opened his mouth, everyone would understand that Tang Mianjin had no resentment.However, when Duan Nian saw Tang Mianjin's appearance, his heart still "thumped", and he took a step forward: "What's wrong?"

Then he saw the photo in Tang Mianjin's hand, and shut his mouth in surprise.

Tang Mianjin raised his face, he stammered holding the old photo, and asked, "Duan Nian... what is this? The two of us knew each other before?"

Tang Mianjin looked at Duan Nian. He was holding a bag in his hand, which contained a boxed supper. Tang Mianjin himself called for more lobster meat. red.Faced with the scene that usually whetted his appetite, Tang Mianjin had no appetite at this moment. He watched Duan Nian silently put the bag on the table, but Duan Nian did not speak.

After a long time, Duan Nian said, "Do you still eat noodles? It's cold, can you warm it up for me?"

Tang Mianjin looked down at the photo in his hand.The photo was yellowed, and the faces of the children inside were not very clear, but the expressions of the two children, one frustrated and the other impatient, were very obvious.He turned the photo over, and on the back was written a very beautiful line of cursive words: MyLitteMForever.

Tang Mianjin didn't flip through his photo album often, and he didn't look at each photo one by one every time he flipped through it, so he couldn't be sure who put this photo in.His first reaction was Duan Nian. After Duan Nian went out, he quietly flipped through the documents Duan Nian kept in Tang Mianjin's room—after all, Duan Nian still had to deal with company business, but Duan Nian's English was very Correct, not the font on the photo.

He said, "I won't eat." Then his stomach grumbled.

Duan Nian seemed to be helpless, and coaxed him in a low voice: "Are you hungry? Eat something, and I'll tell you if it's okay after eating?"

With the promise, Tang Mianjin started to eat, and sat upright after eating, "Go ahead."

Duan Nian was amused by Tang Mianjin's serious face, and reached out to touch his bulging belly. Duan Nian's palm was warm and comfortable, and Tang Mianjin didn't refuse.Duan Nian pondered for a while, and said, "Actually, I did know you when I was young."

At that time, Duan Nian's family lived on the mountain, and that mountain was a residential area, where many wealthy people lived without disturbing each other, and the houses were sparse and not densely packed.When Duan Nian was a child, his family was very strict, but he often sneaked out of the house and wandered around the residential area.

One day when Duan Nian walked to the foot of the mountain, he saw a child squatting by the grass looking at something.

It was winter, and the child was dressed thickly, wrapped like a ball. Duan Nian saw that there was no one around, so he walked over to have a look. The child was observing the longhorn beetle lying on the bush.

Duan Nian said "Hi" loudly, the child seemed to be taken aback, turned his head around, saw Duan Nian, and politely called out to his brother.At that time, little Tang Mianjin had not yet grown a cold face, her eyes were round and big, her cheeks were chubby, and she was very cute.After he finished calling Duan Nian in a childish voice, he turned his head to observe the insects again. Duan Nian saw that he was alone and bored, so he said, "Come here, I'll take you to my yard, there are a lot of insects."

The kid didn't even have any vigilance, and Duan Nian led him away without hesitation.Fortunately Duan's father was not there after returning home, Duan's mother was at home alone, seeing Duan Nian brought a child back, she was delighted and said: "Nian Nian, where is the child so cute?"

"I picked it up at the bottom of the mountain." Duan Nian said, and then he heard a plop, turned his head, and found that Tang Mianjin was gone, and the aftermath was still swaying in the pond, so he hurried over to pick up Tang Mianjin, put it on the ground and scolded him.Tang Mianjin didn't cry when she fell into the water, instead she was in high spirits, but after being scolded by Duan Nian, she started crying.

Duan Nian was speechless, and could only help him wipe the water off his face impatiently, coaxing him angrily.

Later, Tang Mianjin had a great time at Duan Nian's house, and kept in touch for a while, but Duan Nian didn't check Tang Mianjin from the beginning to the end, and Duan's father was busy with business during the day, so he didn't even see the child.Tang Mianjin is also becoming more and more dependent on Duan Nian, and he often picks some small flowers from nowhere and softly says that he will give them to Duan Nian, but Duan Nian always pretends to happily accept them in front of Tang Mianjin, and secretly does not know where to throw those wild flowers went.

They kept coming and going like this for a few years, and then Tang Mianjin came less and less, sometimes seeing each other only once in several months, and then Tang Mianjin finally stopped coming.

"I thought you moved, and I never went to look for you." Duan Nian said, "Until I saw you drunk at the bar that day, and there was no one around, so I helped you up, who knew I was entangled with you."

Tang Mianjin couldn't remember who was pestering whom that night, and was suspicious of Duan Nian's words.He thought about it, Duan Nian should have never seen himself after his sixth birthday, and the time Duan Nian knew him was when he was in the orphanage.

If there is no accident, the photo in his hand is from when he and Duan Nian met for the first time, but since it wasn't taken by Duan Nian's person, then who took it?

Tang Mianjin’s photo album was given by Tang Shuxiu (the third aunt). When it was given to Tang Mianjin, there was already the first photo on it, that is, the family portrait. At that time, Tang Shuxiu touched his face and said that Tang Mianjin could take Store the memories in the Tang family well.

Has this photo always been there?

Duan Nian looked at the photo and admired, "You were so cute back then."

Tang Mianjin asked, "Where is your original home?"

Duan Nian mentioned a location, on the outskirts of M City, which is indeed very close to the orphanage.Tang Mianjin thought for a while, but before he could speak, Duan Nian said, "No."

Tang Mianjin: ...

"You have also seen your family's instructions," Duan Nian gently pinched his face, "You should stay at home obediently during this time, and you can go out soon after you behave well." He stood up He cleaned up the lunch box that Tang Mianjin had finished eating.

"Oh, okay." Tang Mianjin said obediently.Even though this kind of confinement may seem outrageous to outsiders, firstly Tang Mianjin has not learned any self-defense skills, secondly, there are indeed dangers lurking around him, and his family's attitude towards Tang Mianjin has always been concerned about gain and loss, Tang Mianjin can understand it very well.

But should we learn something to protect ourselves?After all, I am already in my 20s. Is it possible that in the future, when I am in my 45s, [-]s, or [-]s, I will still be protected by my family three layers inside and outside three layers like now?This is too embarrassing, Tang Mianjin imagined that he was still grounded by his family in middle age, with a big belly and unshaven beard caused by long-term inactivity, and he went to Qi Yufan to complain about his distress, while Duan Nian stood by the side conscientiously. look.

Tang Mianjin: ...No!

While Tang Mianjin was terrified and imagining his future self, Duan Nian finished packing and came in. Seeing Tang Mianjin's frightened face, he was stunned for a moment: "What's wrong?" He thought Tang Mianjin was in some danger, so he opened the window to look .

As the night was getting dark, the two of them didn't say anything more, they turned off the lights and went to sleep. Duan Nian hugged Tang Mianjin as usual like taking care of a child.Tang Mianjin opened his eyes in the darkness, and heard Duan Nian's breathing was getting longer, so he moved lightly to try to break free, but when he moved, he was tightly bound, and Duan Nian's voice sounded very clear: "Where are you going? "

Tang Mianjin pretended to be stupid and smiled, feeling that Duan Nian was not moved, so he confessed, "I want to go out."

"Where are you going?" Duan Nian hugged him tighter.

"Just... just take a bath in the moonlight."

"I'll take you there." Duan Nian picked up Tang Mianjin and was about to take him to the balcony, but Tang Mianjin quickly admitted his mistake and lay down on the bed obediently.Although he didn't say anything, he felt that Duan Nian was a little angry. In order to show his sincerity in admitting his mistakes, Tang Mianjin wrapped Duan Nian tightly like an octopus and said, "Okay, don't worry! I won't run away this time. Already!"

Duan Nian also reached out to hug him, "Sleep."

"En." Tang Mianjin closed his eyes, this time drowsiness hit him quickly, and he quickly fell asleep.
