hole in one

"His house is there, so I won't go there, lest he see me uncomfortable."

He Jing pointed to the door for Wang Nan and opened her mouth, and Wang Nan nodded.On the way here just now, He Jing had already told him what happened to Li Liang's family.It's a bit troublesome to talk about it, but to put it simply, Li Liang's mother has some problems with her personal style.

Now it is different from the past. Even in the small city of Liangcheng, divorce is no longer a rare thing. Although someone divorces their parents, they will still be discussed behind their backs, but they will not be regarded as aliens anymore. .And if one of the parents cheated, of course it would have an impact on the child, but under normal circumstances, his classmates would not know about it. The reason why He Jing knew about it was not that he was well-informed, but because of this matter, he was known by others. Made trouble at school.

Wang Nan gave He Jing her call number, made an appointment to have dinner together, and then walked towards the door.He went over, knocked first, but no one answered, then rang the doorbell, still no one answered.He thought for a while, then yelled again, this time there was some movement inside, he was overjoyed, and clapped twice more.

"Wang Nan?"

"Well, it's me, Li Liang, right? Open the door quickly. I've come all the way here once. You won't let me just leave."

There was a pause inside, and then the door opened, revealing a shaggy head. Under the messy hair, there was an unshaven face. The beard was not thick, but it was blue around the lips, with deep-set eyes and cheeks. It was concave inward, thanks to Wang Nan's preparation, otherwise he would have been frightened.

But even so, he still couldn't believe it.This is Li Liang?Is this really Li Liang?This change is too big!How come this one has become like this in just one year?He clearly remembered the last time they met, this was Yushu Linfeng who was very capable of being a badass.

"My boy, I've grown taller again. I thought I'd be taller than you this time." He punched him on the shoulder. "Is there anyone at home? Is it convenient for me to go in?"

Li Liang shook his head, then nodded again: "No one. You... come in."

As he spoke, he moved away a little bit, making a mess all over the place.Broken wine bottles and rice bowls, overturned tables and chairs, and even a 30-inch TV set were lying on the ground. The room was filled with a pungent smell. The door shut with a snap, and the light in the room dimmed immediately.

"Which is your room?"

Li Liang pointed to the side, Wang Nan smiled and said, "You can go in."

Li Liang looked at him for a while, then nodded slowly.His room is much better than the outside. Although the bed is messy, the tables and chairs are neatly placed there. Just like the outside, the windows here are closed and the bed curtains are drawn tightly, but because the windows are large, the light is brighter than outside. It's better, but the smell is just as bad.

Wang Nan looked left and right, and felt that it was difficult for him to pretend that he hadn't found anything. After thinking about it, he asked, "What's wrong?"

Li Liang shook his head and didn't speak.

"Have you eaten? Forget it, this question is useless, you change your clothes and go out to eat with me."

Li Liang didn't move, Wang Nan pushed him: "Go! Wait a minute, can your house take a bath? If you can take a bath, you should give me a bath first, and then shave your beard. Look at you, what are you doing?" Even if you can't take a bath, you should wash your face, oh, forget it, I'll go and see with you. "

Wang Nan pulled him and found the kitchen, which was not much better than the living room, but fortunately the water heater was hung on the wall, so it still worked. He tried it, and when there was hot water, he pushed Li Liang to the bathroom.Looking at the mess everywhere, he wanted to clean it up, but he had nowhere to start. In the end, he could only sigh, roll up the bed curtains, and open the windows for ventilation.Although there is chaos everywhere, it can still be seen that this is a very livable house.It has an area of ​​[-] to [-] square meters, three bedrooms and two living rooms. Almost every room has windows and wooden floors.

After opening the window, he helped up the tables and chairs, and then found a broom to sweep the broken glass together.Although there are not many things to do, the house is big and it takes a lot of time to do it.After finishing all this, he let out a long breath, but he didn't finish his breath yet, suddenly he felt something wrong, why didn't Li Liang come out yet?

"This guy can't do anything stupid, can he?"

When this idea came up, he couldn't stand anymore, turned around and knocked on the bathroom door, but he heard nothing but the sound of water, and he was even more anxious. Fortunately, the door was not locked, and it opened as soon as he twisted it. Standing under the shower rushing, but still wearing clothes.

Wang Nan walked over and pulled him out helplessly: "Brother, what are you playing?"

Li Liang looked up at him, then hugged him with a wow, and cried desperately.He was really desperate, he was not so much crying as he was howling. The people who screamed were panicking. Wang Nan was fine at first, but gradually, he felt a little sad.He could imagine what kind of life Li Liang was living these days, and he could also imagine his mood.

This guy has always been excellent, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he is the pride of heaven. Although he seemed to have been bullied a little when he was in the first high school, he can fully imagine that with this guy's hard work, he will always get better.In fact, He Jing also said just now that before this incident, this guy was not only from the student union, but also from the school newspaper.Although the school newspaper of No. [-] High School is only an organization within the school, it is quite arrogant when it is said.At the most arrogant time, encountering such a blow...

"This guy is also unlucky."

He thought so, but Li Liang didn't think so.He didn't feel unlucky, he just felt wronged, intensely wronged, a kind of wronged that couldn't be expressed.He didn't know how it became like this, why suddenly everything changed, a crazy woman blocked the school gate and yelled at him, calling Li Liang from the second class of the second grade by name, and Li Liang from the second class of the second grade. Liang's whore mother, Li Liang's mother from class two, grade two, pissed off the third party...

These words lingered in his ears all the time, and then, there were the astonished gazes of his classmates, his father's scolding, his mother's silent crying, and the venting that seemed extremely depressed: "You say I'm mean? What about you? Do you think I don't know what you did outside? Do you think no one has seen it? I endured it, but I didn't want Xiaoliang to be wronged! Li Tianzeng, people all over the world can scold me, but you are not qualified !"

"Yes, I did! I did! But I didn't make trouble! What about you? You let people block our son at the school gate! What are you! Besides, what is a man looking for outside? Which man? Don't look for it? Didn't I always save face for you?"

……

Even if he covered his ears, such scolding would still go into his ears, even if he got under the quilt, he could still hear this fragmented ugliness.He has always felt that he is happy.He has a beautiful and gentle mother, and a handsome and capable father.His mother made him breakfast every morning, and his father brought him new toys and clothes every time.When other children could only eat dirty Hu spicy soup at the street corner, what he ate was peeled boiled eggs and toasted crispy bread.When other children can only drool over the toys on the TV, he can already play with the toys back and forth without paying much attention.

His future is bright, one high school, Tsinghua University, American Harvard, and then he will marry a beautiful and virtuous woman like her mother to form a happy family.

"30 years ago, the father respected the son, and 30 years later, the son respected the father."

This was a sentence he heard when he was a child. He knew that the preferential treatment he received was related to himself, but more importantly, it was related to his parents.He vowed to make his parents respected because of him.So, even though he was hit repeatedly after entering the No. [-] high school, he has been working hard to catch up.Finally, counting down from the beginning, he caught up to the top [-] in the class. He knew that such a result still could not guarantee that he would be able to pass the exam.However, he can still improve.

He can!

But now, he didn't know what to do again. He felt like he had been cheated by a huge one, and this trick was dug for him by his parents.

He kept crying, and finally lost the strength to howl. Wang Nan patted him on the back: "Let's take a bath first."

He just didn't move, Wang Nan could only take off his own clothes first, and then helped him take off, and then helped him take a bath by tugging and pulling.Fortunately, although Li Liang was dumbfounded, he still had some basic reactions. Ask him to lift his arm, he will lift it, and he will turn around.

Wang Nan helped him take a bath, shaved his beard, and changed his clothes. Although he was still very haggard, he could finally watch it.At the intersection, I took him to eat a bowl of noodles, and then Wang Nan became a little worried.If Li Liang was like this, no matter what he did, it was hard to guarantee that he would not starve to death, but he was leaving in two days. Could it be that he was being taken to G City?

"I don't know where his parents are." He sighed in his heart, and it's not easy to ask at this time, so he can only put this question aside first, and cheer up, "I'll take you to play games!"

Li Liang didn't respond, but he followed Wang Nan and stood up very honestly.In the past two years, Liangcheng began to take control of video game rooms. As a result, the video game rooms that used to be seen on every street are almost gone. A few are also hidden behind the curtain.However, in the most central area of ​​Liangcheng, there is still a game room.Of course, it was called the simulation room.There are more virtual racing motorcycles and shooting dolls.

It is no longer necessary to buy game currency here, but directly use one-yuan coins.Maybe because of the high asking price, maybe because it was still time for work and school, and there were not many people in the simulation room.Wang Nan exchanged 50 yuan coins and took Li Liang to play from the first game to the last game. Fortunately, he caught a little mouse. Although the mouse must not exceed ten yuan if he bought it, Wang Nan was very happy Excited, Li Liang, who hadn't reacted until now, showed some expression.

"Give it to you."

Wang Nan stuffed the mouse into his hand, Li Liang took it over, looked at him in confusion, Wang Nan asked, "Are you still playing?"

Li Liang shook his head.Wang Nan said: "I also think it's almost time to play. I remember a Dicos opened in front of me. Let's go and eat. I haven't eaten yet. What about you?"

"Ah."

"Well, what do you mean? Did you eat it or didn't you eat it?"

"Have eaten."

"Is it tasty?"

"……good."

Wang Nan smiled: "Then go eat, I treat you!"

There are quite a few fast food restaurants like this in City G, but he never had time to go there. When he came back, he had time, but he didn't have the chance.He always felt that he needed someone to accompany him when he came to this kind of place, and eating alone was always a bit awkward.He imitated others, ordered hamburger, French fries and ice cream, and returned to his seat with a large plate of things. Li Liang was there blankly, looking at the opposite play area, where a little boy was waiting for his parents. Accompanied by the happy climb up and down.

Wang Nan put down the things and decided not to be devious again: "I heard He Jing talk about your matter, she is my elementary school classmate, I went to look for you today, and I happened to run into her, she was the one who brought me to your house. I won't say much else, what are you going to do in the future?"

Li Liang shook his head: "I don't know."

"Then what do you want to do?"

"……I have no idea."

"You must have some ideas!"

"What's the use of me having an idea?" His voice suddenly rose, and when the people around him looked over, he immediately lowered his head again, and after a while, he slowly said, "It's useless to think about it... I, I can't control anything, no one listens to me, no matter how I beg them, it's useless..."

How could he have no idea?He wants everything to go back to the past.His parents can still be the same as before, and so can he.He hoped that they would stop arguing, he hoped that they could still live a good life, and he hoped that their family would still be a happy family envied by others!

He can pretend that none of this happened!

However, his parents didn't think so.After that quarrel, his father was the first to slam the door and leave, and his mother left without knowing when.His mother seemed to say something like sorry and sorry before leaving, but what's the use of that?

He hated his mother when that woman came to school to make trouble, but after the big fight, he didn't know who to hate.

"Then mind yourself!"

He raised his head and saw Wang Nan looking at him straightly.

"You can't control others, but you can still manage yourself! Don't you hate the way I used to be? But if you can't control yourself, you will become like me, even more depraved and worse than me I don't know how your family will solve it, but I think you can solve it yourself. I will go to you today and see those students from No. [-] High School. Do you know how I feel?"

Li Liang stared at him blankly, and Wang Nan continued: "Envy. Yes, it is envy. You know I never thought about studying before, but today I found out that, in fact... I still like that kind of life. But, I can't go back, and I have no conditions to go back. I can't go back to the third year of junior high school and go back to high school again, but you can! You are a student of No. [-] High School, and all the students in Liangcheng envy this school. Can you Going in is your ability, and you have a bit of luck, so why don't you continue to work hard? You never thought that life would end like this. Since you haven't thought about it, then work hard! Study hard, work hard, and then, If you look at today's problem again, maybe it will be different."

Wang Nan didn't expect that one day he would say such things to others. In fact, when he said it, he also felt confused.But after he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a sense of relief.Yes, hard work, only hard work!He used to think that his family was not good, his father was not good, his mother was not good, and the people around him were not good.But what's the use of him thinking they're not good anymore?His father still ignored him, his mother was still a street sweeper, and those around him would not change their views on him.

But what about after he worked hard?

He still can't change many things, but he has changed a lot.It doesn't matter whether his father cares about him or not, and his mother's job doesn't bother him anymore—it's only now that he understands that it's not his mother's job that bothers him, but his own inferiority complex.

Because he feels inferior to others, he feels troubled.And the people around them are also changing.In places like Dexters, if it was in the past, he would never have been able to come in. Even if he had to bite the bullet, he would probably be with Fang Wenzhuo, be careful, order the cheapest hamburger, and then Fang Wenzhuo said he was right. These are not of interest.Of course, Fang Wenzhuo will definitely add another chicken wing to him.

He shook his head and threw Fang Wenzhuo aside.

"Study hard and become that champion, and after that, you will find that everyone else has changed!" He said to Li Liang with a bit of bewilderment, "No one will look down on you anymore, no one will laugh at you anymore You, they will only look at you enviously!"

Li Liang was still in a daze, he couldn't react.effort?What else is he trying to do?I don't know where his home is!

"But what if you are still like this? You will become more and more pitiful. When people mention you, they will only say, ah, that Li Liang, his parents divorced, and he suddenly failed. In the past As for the students in the first high school, they couldn't even go to school later. Oh my goodness, what a wonderful child. This is quite kind, and there are some kind of vitriol, and I don't know how to say it. You want to hear me Do you want to learn? That Li Liang, his mother destroys the family, and his father is not a good thing, they will say a hundred times worse than this! Do you want to hear something like this? Do you think you won’t even have a formal job in the future? , can I only wash the dishes for others? Do you want to be called pitiful in the future? If you want to, no one can do anything. I am here for vacation this time, and I will leave in two days. I will take care of you today, I will take care of you tomorrow, but I can't take care of you forever!"

Li Liang covered his face and shrugged his shoulders.Wang Nan didn't care about him, and bit into the hamburger.Yes, work hard!This is for Li Liang, and also for himself, he will work harder than now!A few rookies make him work hard for a ball. With this level, how can he say that he can rely on snooker for a living?And what would he be without snooker?
