Catch the wind

At midnight, Ye Xueshan returned home.

He only went out in the afternoon on weekdays, and he didn't come back until eleven or twelve o'clock at night, so Lin Zisen sat in the living room and waited patiently.There was a small fire wine stove on the coffee table, inside which was boiling preserved egg and lean meat porridge, the porridge was very thick, half rice and half meat, it was his supper for Ye Xueshan.Ye Xueshan doesn't eat it, he can eat it himself.

Just when he was bored, Ye Xueshan came in with a cold air.

Lin Zisen rushed out to greet him, and saw that his face was flushed red from the cold.Covering his ears with his hands, Lin Zisen asked with a smile, "Aren't you tired after running outside for a long time?"

Ye Xueshan raised his eyes to look at him without saying a word, his whole body had a strange transparency, as if he had been frozen and melted, melted and frozen again, his blood was full of ice balls, and his bones were also made of ice.Lin Zisen warmed his ears, and he also raised his hand to touch Lin Zisen's cheek.After touching it, he brought his hand up to his nose and sniffed.

He smelled Lin Zisen's smell - for the past few years, Lin Zisen's smell has been everywhere on his body, bed, and outside the house.Lin Zisen seems to be everywhere, so it is only natural that the smell also remains.He also saw Lin Zisen standing tall and precariously in front of him, and asked very gently: "Are you hungry? There is porridge at home."

He let out a breath of cool air lightly, and opened his mouth to answer the wrong question: "Cheng Wu is back."

Then, before Lin Zisen could react, he continued: "Guys are cowards, they can be afraid of you, and of course they can also be afraid of me. I shot one in public, and I know what I need to know."

He was completely confused: "Lin Zisen, are you just asking for money?"

Lin Zisen stared at him steadfastly, then nodded after a long time: "Yes, I just want money."

Ye Xueshan closed his eyes and sighed, then pulled out the pistol from his waist.Unexpectedly, at this moment, Lin Zisen turned around and walked upstairs quickly.A few minutes later, he got down and handed a dagger to Ye Xueshan: "Master, there are people around, don't move your gun, it's not good for people to hear you."

Ye Xueshan took the dagger, and immediately smiled: "You think I can't do it?"

Lin Zisen looked into his eyes and frowned slightly, with an extremely serious expression.Seeing the end, he said softly: "From now on, I won't be serving the young master, so take care of yourself, young master."

Ye Xueshan nodded, and replied flatly: "Lin Zisen, you talk all kinds of good things and never do bad things."

Having said that, he stabbed the opponent's arm with a knife!

The tip of the knife pierced the arm bone, and the blade cut through the flesh, and the blood immediately soaked through layers of clothes from the inside out.Lin Zisen clenched his teeth and endured the pain, allowing Ye Xueshan to pull out the dagger and stab the second knife into his shoulder.

Raising his hand and pointing to his heart, his voice trembled slightly: "Master, you stab here, and it will be over in one go."

Ye Xueshan remained silent, stabbing here and there.He knew that Lin Zisen was in pain, but he thought that no matter how much Lin Zisen was in pain, it was not as painful as himself.He had never been so weak, not even when he had a rash; he didn't even dare to close his eyes, because if he closed them, he would be plunged into darkness and couldn't help himself.

He couldn't figure it out, he had a lot to ask Lin Zisen, but he didn't dare to ask, and he didn't want to ask.His hands were already shaking so much that he could hardly hold the knife, blood spattered on his fingers, snow white and blood red, little by little, like a rash again.Suddenly throwing the dagger to the ground, he looked up and found that Lin Zisen was still standing, but he had turned into a bloody man.

"I won't kill you." He said, "From now on, you and I will be separated. You go, don't see me again."

Then he breathed a sigh of relief, walked around Lin Zisen and walked upstairs.

After Ye Xueshan entered the bedroom, he threw himself on the big bed without taking off his outer clothes.Without any transition, he fell asleep in an instant.

When I woke up again, it was already high in the sun.He vaguely raised his hand to rub his eyes, but found dried blood spots on the fingers on the back of his hand.After a brief daze, he remembered what happened last night.

Turning over listlessly, he pulled over the cigarette tray, and slowly burned himself a cigarette, his heart was very calm, almost to the point of blankness.After snorting for a while, he sat up with half-opened eyes, pushed the door open and went downstairs.

There was a servant squatting downstairs, and he was mopping the floor; when he suddenly saw him coming, he stood up in panic.Ye Xueshan also stopped in his tracks: "What are you doing?"

The servant Qiqi Aiai pointed down: "There is... blood on the ground."

Leaning against the handrail of the stairs, Ye Xueshan yawned heartbreakingly, stretching the corners of his mouth sorely: "Where's Lin Zisen?"

The servant replied tremblingly, "He left at night."

Ye Xueshan still half-closed his eyes, and continued to walk downstairs to the restaurant as if he was sleepwalking.Sitting down at the empty dining table, he cursed, "Damn it, why is no one preparing breakfast?"

The servants are used to living a peaceful life, and after the scene last night, they are collectively feeling stupid now.When Lin Zisen was here, he cooked meals by himself every day; Lin Zisen left like a blood gourd, and the servants were patronizing and afraid, and had long forgotten the old chicken soup wontons and sugar biscuits.

A little servant was the most diligent in his legs and feet. He put on a padded jacket and ran out, buying breakfast in a hurry.Ye Xueshan held the chopsticks in one hand and the biscuits in the other, and sweated profusely after taking one bite from the left and the other from the right.When he was full of food and drink, he summoned his servants to carry out a big cleaning. They washed and wiped everything that needed to be washed, especially the sheets and bedding. The whole set was replaced with new ones.Lin Zisen's smell gradually faded, but he was still quite at ease, as if he was born without emotion.

The windows in the building were cleared up, the snow in the yard was cleared out, the servants had nothing to do, and finally they could gather in the kitchen to chatter and chew their tongues.

Ye Xueshan walked up and down alone, patrolling upstairs and downstairs.Ye's mansion is a nice house that people like - a small western-style building and a small courtyard. Under Mrs. Ye's planning, it is not like a residence, but more like a small Taoyuan that does not live in the world.In fact, Ye Xueshan would like to have a family, would like to hear the sound of frying and cooking in the kitchen, would like to hear someone talking loudly and softly, but after a long time without a family, he is very comfortable and used to it.

After walking aimlessly for a while, he sat in the living room, opened the cigarette case casually, and neatly arranged the ends of the cigarettes inside.Cheng Wu had already entered the hospital, accompanied by a bodyguard.I should go and see him, but I'm too lazy to go, forget it, I won't go.

He wasn't very interested in cigarettes, so he closed the cigarette case after setting it up, and then sent his servants out to sell a stack of newspapers and magazines and came back.After washing and changing clothes, he returned to the living room. He lay on the sofa in long stretches, looking through everything, and he had nothing on his mind.A few years ago, several new films were released in cinemas, all with vulgar names.He chose a relatively less vulgar title and memorized it, and prepared to go out to watch it at night.

Nothing to do, really nothing to do.His business was to buy and sell opium.Now that I have nothing in my hands, I have nothing to buy or sell, so I can only relax; but the New Year is coming, so I have to send out red envelopes before the year.This year, it can save a lot, because six or seven guys' shares are missing; there is also the largest share, which originally belonged to Lin Zisen, so there is no need to give it.

My own guy sank his own boat, it's shameful, I can't say it.After the next year, we will have to recruit a few more buddies to fill in the vacancies. Fortunately, outsiders don't know the inside story.Ye Xueshan flipped through a magazine casually, somehow he was very patient, reading every word with great interest.

Ye Xueshan didn't realize it until the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month.

At that time, the servants had already received the red envelopes, and they went back to each house to celebrate the New Year.The number of people in the family was getting smaller and smaller every day. On the morning of New Year's Eve, Ye Xueshan dressed and went downstairs, only to find himself alone in the house.

He also had the experience of celebrating the New Year alone, but at that time he was still young, he knew neither sorrow nor suffering, and he was quite happy to eat and drink alone on New Year's Eve.But now he can't. Now that he has grown up and has a big heart, he can't be satisfied simply.

There were no chicken soup wontons and sugar biscuits left in the restaurant. Fortunately, the driver hadn't left yet.The chauffeur's home was in the city, so he was in no hurry to leave.Ye Xueshan didn't know how to drive a car, so while the driver was around, he hurried out to the concession area, bought a whole table banquet from a western restaurant and carried it home.

At noon, the driver drove the car into the garage behind the building, then stood at the door of the living room and said, "Master, do you have any orders?"

Ye Xueshan knew what he meant, so he waved his hand: "It's okay, you can go back to celebrate the New Year!"

After saying this, Ye Xueshan took out a few banknotes from his trouser pocket and stuffed them into the driver's pocket: "Sell candied haws for your nephew on the way!"

The driver bowed with a smile, and retreated back while saying auspicious words.Striding out of the courtyard gate, the young driver looked back at Ye Mansion, thinking: "A table of banquets is not enough to last until the fifth day of the lunar new year. For Chinese New Year, shops on the street will not be open, and rickshaws will not leave. He What are you going to eat tomorrow?"

Ye Xueshan didn't enter the restaurant, and directly placed the western food he bought on the coffee table one by one.He opened a bottle of brandy by himself, but he didn't want a glass, so he poured his head up into the mouth of the bottle.

He felt uncomfortable, and he didn't want to think about it in detail. Anyway, he was depressed and wronged.What was going on, he couldn't figure it out anyway.He had never treated Lin Zisen badly, even if Lin Zisen asked for money, he wouldn't ask for such vicious and vicious things.He always thought he was smart, but not smart, how could he earn millions in a few years?But he really couldn't figure out what Lin Zisen had done.

Standing up drunk, he put on his clothes and went out.Standing idly in the yard for a while, blowing the cold wind, suddenly felt a touch on the calf, looked down, but it was the big yellow dog running over.

The big yellow dog hadn't gotten food all day, but now that he finally saw someone, he came over to beg for food.However, Ye Xueshan stared at it blankly for a moment, then suddenly staggered and kicked it: "Go back to your own home!"

The big yellow dog has always been pampered and never beaten; now it was suddenly kicked, and immediately whimpered in shock.Ye Xueshan strode forward to open the courtyard door with drunkenness, kicked the big yellow dog out several times, then turned around and took out a sleepy big yellow cat from the porter's room, and threw them to the side of the street. He locked the courtyard door with a "squeak", and said angrily to the eager big yellow dog, "You are not my dog, get out, no one will keep you!"

Then he turned and entered the building, returned to the bedroom and fell asleep.

Before dark, Ye Xueshan woke up.

Turning on a small dim light by the bed, most of his drunkenness has subsided.After smoking opium for a while, he found that being sober is not good, because once sober, he has to think.

He went back to the living room and continued to drink with the leftovers.There was sound of firecrackers near and far, this one here and there was monotonous, but joyous.Under the influence of alcohol, he became happy again for no reason, and ran out against the cold wind.As a result, as soon as he entered the yard, he saw a pair of cats and dogs squatting outside the door.The heavy snow fluttered and fell, and the cats and dogs became white and fat together.Suddenly seeing him appear, the big yellow dog stood up immediately, grinning and squinting pretending to smile; the big yellow cat also put a paw in through the iron fence, meowing every move.

Ye Xueshan couldn't help laughing, opened the door and let the cat and dog back: "You two are shameless enough, you won't even be able to drive them away!"

Then he went to take out all the food on the coffee table and poured it into the dog food bowl, which was regarded as the end of the meal.Big Yellow Dog hasn't had cold beer today, but he doesn't dare to ask for any more.

Ye Xueshan didn't care about it, and wandered back to continue drinking.This time, there were no appetizers, so I could only drink dry mouthfuls.After drinking and falling over, he was so drunk that he fell unconscious.

He was in a deep sleep, and he couldn't hear someone knocking on the door outside the courtyard; he still couldn't hear someone knocking the door away;The big yellow dog and the big yellow cat barked and meowed all the way, biting and scratching around the two calves of the uninvited visitor, but the riding boots were frozen hard, so they were not afraid of biting and scratching.

Kicking the cats and dogs away one by one, Gu Xiongfei walked in cursing, thinking that he rushed over in the wind and snow, but there was no one to open the door, what a fucking idiot!
