"I want to go home..." Duan Wenzheng's voice was hoarse.

The tense string in his mind broke in two in an instant, Li Can turned his head stiffly, and the pair of Danfeng eyes under the lens were full of disbelief.

He couldn't believe that this was Duan Wenzheng's reaction, he wasn't surprised, didn't answer, and didn't even ask why.

The road was too wide, and the street lights on the side of the street couldn't shine into the car, causing half of Duan Wenzheng's face to blend into the blackness. Li Can couldn't see the expression on his face, let alone understand his emotions.

The only thing that is certain is that Duan Wenzheng chose to avoid it.

Opening and closing his mouth, Li Can confirmed to Duan Wenzheng with difficulty: "Do you want to go home?"

"Yes, I want to go home." Duan Wenzheng's tone was affirmative.

Sadness is of course greater than anger, Li Can quickly turned his head and looked ahead, he was afraid that Duan Wenzheng would see his red eye sockets, even though he knew that this would never happen.

Since he couldn't see Duan Wenzheng clearly, how could Duan Wenzheng see him clearly?

Lifting the foot on the brake, Li Can got the car back on the road as Duan Wenzheng wished.

Limited space, boundless silence, two divorced men, there is probably no situation that is more suffocating than what they are experiencing at this time.

After about ten minutes, they finally arrived at the downstairs of Duan's house.

After Li Can pulled the handbrake, Duan Wenzheng immediately opened the car door, his impatience was beyond words.

"Don't you have anything to say to me?" Li Can summoned up his courage again.

Taking out the crutches leaning on the seat, Duan Wenzheng used them to support himself standing, looked at Li Can for a few seconds, and said, "You don't need to force yourself to do these things."

"I do not have--"

"Li Can!" Duan Wenzheng pleaded, "Don't wrong yourself anymore.

The car door was closed by Duan Wenzheng from the outside, he turned and left with firm steps, without looking back.

Li Can sat in the driver's seat, unable to recover for a long time, until Duan Wenzheng's figure disappeared, and then belatedly wanted to chase him out.

But it was too late.

Withdrawing his hand on the car door, Li Can lowered his head, exuding an aura of failure all over his body.

Duan Wenzheng actually thought that everything he said and did was out of guilt, and what was even more ridiculous was that he had no right to be angry about it.

Because he was the one who told Duan Wenzheng not to have any hope.

After taking off his glasses, Li Can closed his eyes and squeezed the space between his brows.

what to do?Will time prove it?

Do not……

Li Can glanced at the watch on his wrist, and according to the positions of the hour and minute hands, it was already 24:[-] in the afternoon.

He arrived in his twenties, and the car was parked at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, but until now, he had no intention of getting out of the car at all.

Li Can is waiting for Duan Wenzheng's appointment to be voided.

After another minute, a man with a cane came out from the Civil Affairs Bureau. He stood at the door and looked around, and finally locked his eyes on a white Audi.

Seeing Duan Wenzheng jumping down the steps and approaching slowly, Li Can desperately resisted the urge to go down to help him, and sat in the car, motionless. "Knock, knock, knock!" Duan Wenzheng knocked on the car window.

Calming his mind, Li Can pretended to be calm and pressed the car window.

"The time is coming, hurry up and go in." Duan Wenzheng urged.

"I won't go in." Li Can refused.

Duan Wenzheng was quite helpless: "Stop messing with Li Can."

"I'm not making a fuss."

"Since you don't want to go in, why did you come here?" Duan Wenzheng questioned him.

Pursing the corners of his lips, Li Can said, "I want to talk to you."

"What do you want to talk about?" Duan Wenzheng wanted to make a quick decision, "Come on, let's talk."

Li Can unlocked the car door: "Get in the car first."

With a bit of defense in his eyes, Duan Wenzheng said half-jokingly: "You won't drive me away as soon as I get in the car?"

No matter how calm Li Can was, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when his mind was stabbed.

"No..." Li Can lacked confidence.

Seeing this, Duan Wenzheng restrained his smile and looked serious.

Coincidentally, the moment he was about to speak, Li Can's cell phone rang.

Thanks to this phone call for saving himself from fire and water, Li Can immediately connected no matter who the caller was: "Hello?"

"Li Can, please do something to me." Li Chi on the other side went straight to the point.

"you say."

"That's how it is. Can you pick up Yueyue for me after get off work? Lao Song is on a business trip, and I have an impromptu meeting, so I can't leave," Li Chi said.

Glancing at Duan Wenzheng, Li Can agreed to Li Chi's request: "No problem."

"Then I will trouble you."

After hanging up the phone, Li Can threw the phone aside and opened the co-pilot's door.

"Get in the car." Li Can said to Duan Wenzheng.

Frowning slowly, Duan Wenzheng stood still.

"I have to pick up Yueyue." Li Can used Song Zhiyue as a shield.

"Then what about things here?" Duan Wenzheng asked.

Stretching out his arms, Li Can showed Duan Wenzheng his watch, and said calmly, "It's 31."

Duan Wenzheng was speechless. Being late for one minute was not a problem at all. He dared to bet that as long as they went in now, the staff would still handle it for them.

The problem is that Li Can is unwilling to go in.

Taking a step back, Duan Wenzheng said to Li Can who was sitting in the car: "Go and pick up Yueyue yourself."

"Aren't you going with me?" Li Can played the family card, "Yue Yue said, she hasn't seen you for a long time."

Duan Wenzheng shook his head and said coldly, "I won't go."

Without any annoying persuasion, Li Can turned to close the co-pilot's door with disappointment in his eyes.

But in the end, he was still looking forward to it. He deliberately closed it slowly, but as the gap in the door became narrower, his heart almost fell to the bottom of the cliff.

Suddenly, a crutch was inserted into the middle of the door, preventing it from closing.

Afterwards, Duan Wenzheng opened the car door and got into the co-pilot with a dirty face.

Reluctant to speak, Li Can just raised the corners of his lips slightly, started the car, and drove towards Song Zhiyue's kindergarten.

It was almost time for the children to leave school, and the parking spaces near the kindergarten were all full. Li Can circled around a few times, and finally found an empty space to park.

"I'll pick up Yueyue." Li Can turned off the engine.

Duan Wenzheng was playing with his mobile phone, and responded briefly: "Yes."

Unbuttoning the seat belt at a slower speed than normal, opening the door, and getting out of the car, Li Can's unusual behavior "annoyed" Duan Wenzheng.

"Are you still afraid that I will run away?" He looked at Li Can angrily.

There was a slight smile on Li Can's lips: "I'm not afraid."

After rushing to the kindergarten, Li Can, like other parents who came to pick up their children, stood at the gate of the kindergarten, waiting for Song Zhiyue to come out.

After a while, each class lined up and was led out by the teacher, and handed over to the parents one by one.

This is not the first time that Li Can came to pick up Song Zhiyue, her teacher knew that he was Song Zhiyue's uncle, so he let him take the child with confidence.

"Uncle, why are you here?" Song Zhiyue raised her head and asked.

"Daddy has something to do at work, so he asked me to pick you up." Li Can held her with one hand and helped her carry her schoolbag with the other, "Are you unhappy seeing me?"

"Happy."

"There's another person coming to pick you up with me, guess who it is."

Song Zhiyue thought for a while: "Is it Uncle Duan?"

"Yueyue is so smart." Li Can praised gently.

Near the parking place, Li Can took a look from across the road, and his heart skipped a beat.

There was no one in the car, and there was no sign of Duan Wenzheng.

Blinking her big eyes, Song Zhiyue asked Li Can: "Uncle, where's Uncle Duan?"

Li Can was so confused, he didn't know how to answer, so he could only silently lead Song Zhiyue across the road.

"Is Uncle Duan gone?" Song Zhiyue asked again.

"Who said I'm leaving?"

Not far away, Duan Wenzheng walked forward on crutches, with a supermarket bag hanging on the crutches.

Immediately went up to meet him, Li Can took off the bag and held it in his hands, with displeasure on his face: "Don't stay here, what are you running around for?"

"I'm not running around, I'm going to buy delicious food for Yueyue." Duan Wenzheng smiled brightly at Song Zhiyue.

With crooked eyebrows, Song Zhiyue returned him with a lovely smile.

Infected by them, Li Can's face gradually softened: "Okay, let's get in the car."

When Li Can drove home, Duan Wenzheng showed a little dissatisfaction with his self-assertion, obviously preferring to find a restaurant outside for dinner.

But Li Can didn't think so, he wanted to show off to Duan Wenzheng, as soon as he entered the house, he drove Duan Wenzheng and Song Zhiyue to the living room, and took the kitchen as his own.

Holding a spatula, Li Can was so engrossed in turning the scrambled eggs with tomatoes in the pot that he didn't notice Duan Wenzheng's arrival.

"Want to help?"

After a pause, Li Can shifted his gaze to the incoming person.

Duan Wenzheng leaned against the door, the plaster cast on his left leg changed from the previous monotony, it was colorful, there were flowers, trees, and villains, you could tell whose masterpiece it was at a glance.

Li Can couldn't help laughing, and said, "I can do it myself."

Duan Wenzheng knew what he was laughing at, stretched his left leg forward, and showed it openly: "Yueyue draws quite well, and she has talent in this area. Teacher Li can enroll her in a painting class."

"My brother has this idea."

Nodding, Duan Wenzheng asked: "Is there really nothing I can help you with? If not, I'll leave."

"Help get a cup." Li Can clenched the spatula tightly, "Yueyue definitely wants to drink later."

"Okay." Duan Wenzheng readily agreed.

Walking to his side, Duan Wenzheng opened the cupboard, and when he saw the things inside, he was stunned for a long time.

Li Can pretended to be focused, but only the dancing spatula revealed his absent-mindedness.

Finally, Duan Wenzheng took out a cup, closed the cupboard, and left the kitchen without making a sound.

In the following time, Duan Wenzheng remained reticent, as if he had something on his mind, something very serious.

The phone rang at eight o'clock, Li Can received a call from Li Chi, and rejected his proposal to pick up Song Zhiyue, and prepared to send Song Zhiyue back by himself.

Li Can's original intention was to give Duan Wenzheng space to think alone, but this time, he was really afraid that Duan Wenzheng would run away.

With a beep, the password is unlocked successfully.

Taking a deep breath, Li Can turned the handle and pushed open the door.

The room was quiet, but the lights were on, and Duan Wenzheng's shoes were still there.

Putting down the boulder hanging in his heart, Li Can stepped into the entrance and put on slippers.

The cozy warm yellow light illuminates the home. Duan Wenzheng sits at the dining table with a mug full of cracks in front of him. There is still a piece missing in some places, which is obviously no longer usable.

"Why did you put it together?" Duan Wenzheng's tone was deeply puzzled.

"Because you gave it to me." Li Can replied honestly.

Duan Wenzheng looked up at him: "Is it very important to you?"

Walking in front of Duan Wenzheng, Li Can slowly squatted down: "It's very important, but this meaning is given to it by you."

"Li Can, do you know what you are talking about?"

"I know." Li Can took his hand and put his warm palm on his cheek, "I'm saying I love you, Duan Wenzheng."

The expression on his face went through a series of changes, from shock at the beginning, to joy, to entanglement at the end, Duan Wenzheng tried to withdraw his hand with weak strength: "But I can't take care of you well..."

Li Can held his hand tightly, not letting him pull away: "It's okay, I have learned to take care of myself."

"Li Can, you don't understand. The probability of my encountering an accident is too high. What will you do if something happens to me?" Duan Wenzheng must clearly tell Li Can about the danger of his profession. This is what he owed to Li Can before. .

"I don't deny what you said." Li Can looked into Duan Wenzheng's eyes, "But are you sure you want to give up on me for an accident that will happen in an unknown time, or that may never happen? "

What Li Can said to him, the way Li Can looked at him, these were enough to dispel all of Duan Wenzheng's worries.

He had imagined countless times that one day, Li Can would look at him with eyes full of love, so when this day really came, why would he trap himself in a cage of unreasonable worries?

Taking the initiative to cover Li Can's cheek with the other hand, Duan Wenzheng held his face, nose to nose, and said hoarsely: "I don't want to give up on you."

He couldn't let go of Li Can who didn't love him, how could he be willing to let go of Li Can who loved him?

Lips curved in a happy arc, Li Can said: "Then let's love each other well."
