Forced to coddle with your foe

Ning Xingyi was stunned, and subconsciously wanted to say that she had drunk it, but felt like a little girl when she said that, so she swallowed the words after much deliberation.

Two boys, what is there to care about.

"No poison." Lu Hengjiang put the cup on the table, "Don't worry?"

Ning Xingyi suddenly didn't know what to say, she blinked, and turned her head away with an "oh".

Shen Jian was stunned to see Lu Hengjiang drank half of the lemonade, and took a hard bite of the tender meat in his mouth, baring his teeth in pain, "Come on, it's raining red."

Lu Hengjiang is so obsessed with cleanliness, since he was a child, he has never seen him use other people's or eat things that others have touched. Just now, to prove his innocence, he actually drank the water that Ning Xingyi drank?

It seems that Ning Xingyi is indeed a difficult person, forcing Lu Hengjiang to ignore her obsession with cleanliness.

Miserable.

Shen Jian silently shed bitter tears for Lu Hengjiang in her heart.

Ten minutes after the class bell rang, the classroom was still very noisy, but Class 10 has always been like this, as long as it is not too extreme, the school will turn a blind eye.

"Why isn't the teacher here yet? It's been a quarter of an hour, can't we still have this class?"

"Hahaha Xu Che, you idiot, what class do you take, do you ask the teacher to hypnotize you?"

"Go to your mother..." Xu Che glanced sideways at Shen Huanyu who was on the other side of the aisle, swallowed back the half-sentenced swear words, and turned around to pat Ning Xingyi's table, "Why don't I Are you in class? I'm preparing to take the university entrance exam this semester, right Brother Ning?"

Ning Xingyi was annoyed when he bumped into her. She frowned and took a deep breath, "Come on, if you can pass the college entrance examination, I can become the general of Sita, drink more hot water and less dream."

There was laughter in the classroom, and even Shen Jian couldn't help but touch Lu Hengjiang's arm: "Old Lu, to be honest, there is a reason for you to come to Class Seven, right? Don't tell me that you like this learning atmosphere."

Lu Hengjiang was doing the paper and said "hmm".

"Tell me." Shen Jian was too curious. He had never seen Lu Hengjiang have any special emotions towards anyone since he was so old. Whether it was liking or loathing, he was like an emotionless robot. Even Zhou Xun He didn't even lift his eyelids, and transferred classes for the sake of one person.

This thing is so weird.

"Do you have someone you like?"

Lu Hengjiang glanced at him as if he was insane, wrote a question on a piece of paper and threw it in front of him, "I'll tell you when I solve it, I don't want to talk to scumbags."

"? Who's a scumbag? I'm one of the top [-] in the city, okay? I'm still called a scumbag? A schoolmaster can't even look up when he sees me!"

Lu Hengjiang raised his head and looked at him. He obviously didn't speak, but Shen Jian just read out a posture of "I'm number one in the city, still say?".

"...Okay, you have good grades and you are justified."

Shen Jian gritted his teeth and snatched the paper, and by the way, glanced at Lu Hengjiang, who was doing the questions with downcast eyes, and said to him that the subjects in the third year of high school were like elementary school questions.

From the moment he was born, his life had already been arranged, even if he got zero marks in every subject, it wouldn't have any impact, what a shit class.

Sometimes he wondered if it was because of those "arrangements" that Lu Hengjiang's current temper was caused.

He wasn't like this when the two of them were wearing crotch pants together. At that time, he still had the naivety and arrogance of a child, arrogant and flamboyant.

After that incident, he seemed to be a different person. On the surface, he was still gentle and polite, but in reality he was cold and indifferent, and he didn't bat an eyelid at anyone or anything.

Besides learning.

Shen Jian had never seen a top student with such good grades and working so hard.

Lu Hengjiang is like a freak, obviously according to the level of serial education he has been taught by private teachers since he was a child, and now he is not alone in some professional fields in college, but he still diligently writes papers and writes test questions, and never misses a single one.

Lu Hengjiang said: "For half an hour, don't ask if you can't figure it out."

Shen Jian hurriedly grabbed the pen and concentrated on writing the steps, brushed a piece of paper, felt that something was wrong, turned to a page and continued writing, and it didn't take long to write three pages, and his brows became more and more wrinkled.

The math teacher was a pretty young woman, she walked in quickly with a book, spread out the book and apologized first: "I'm sorry, students, I have something to do so I'm late, please open the math book first..."

Ning Xingyi wasn't in a good mood, but he couldn't fall asleep either. The math teacher's voice was sharp and sharp, piercing his ear like a needle, making him unable to calm down.

Ning Xingyi took a deep breath and smelled the faint scent of orange blossom perfume on Ling Chu's body, as well as the lingering peach smell, and then frowned.

"Have you eaten peaches?"

Ling Chu snorted and said in a low voice, "Fruit candy, do you want some? I still have the orange flavor you like here."

"Don't eat." Ning Xingyi didn't know what was going on, his nasal cavity seemed to have been cleaned by someone, and all kinds of smells invaded it, the scent of fruit candy made his throat physiologically roll, and he couldn't help but feel nauseous.

I don't know if it's because of that glass of lemonade, Ning Xingyi couldn't help thinking, he felt uncomfortable after just one sip, Lu Hengjiang wouldn't be poisoned to death after drinking so much, right?

He lay on the table, fell asleep after thinking about it, and was woken up by Xu Che knocking on the table after school.

"Brother Ning, school is over."

Ning Xingyi raised her head, her lips turned white, and the red marks on her neck were a little more obvious than in the morning, and even the scratches looked shocking.

"Why are you so mentally ill? Are you sick? I heard from Ling Chu that you scratched yourself like this. Is it an allergy? Do you want me to take you to the hospital?" Xu Che worriedly asked Si Lian, but Seeing that he didn't intend to go to the hospital, he asked again: "Then if you go home with your neck like this, will your grandma scold you?"

"It's okay." Ning Xingyi picked up her schoolbag and threw it on her shoulder, and walked out with long legs.

Xu Che and Ning Xingyi are neighbors. They have been peeing and muddy together since they wore crotch pants. It can be said that they know each other very well, but they don't know much about their family.

Ning Xingyi followed her grandma to Xiushui Road when she was three years old, and rented a two-story house in Xu Che's house. She lived on the upper floor and opened a small shop below.

Xu Che's family opened a car repair shop nearby, and the two families lived next to each other.

It used to be very chaotic here, with dragons and snakes mixed with everyone. Later, in Ning Xingyi's first year of junior high school, a few people went to his store to rob him. He picked out more than a dozen people by himself, and was broken two ribs. I can't get up.

He stood up holding the glass stand in a daze, Xu Che was not there at that time, he didn't know what Ning Xingyi said specifically, the boss actually started to call him brother and brother, and Xiushui Road ceased from then on.

Grandma Ning didn't say anything at the time, and calmly called 120 to send him to the hospital, where she made three meals a day of various nourishing soups for him to feed him. When Ning Xingyi was discharged from the hospital, she chased him all over the street with a feather duster.

Xu Che saw this side of Grandma Ning for the first time.

The life of the two is not too tight, but it is definitely not good. A canteen can barely support the grandparents and grandchildren.

Before Xu Che's first year of high school, he was in a public school with compulsory teaching affairs, and then he entrusted someone to go to Huiyu.

Ning Xingyi was different. He went to the best school since he was a child, and Grandma Ning never compromised on this matter.

When Ning Xingyi returned home, she saw some milk, eight-treasure porridge, cigarettes and alcohol boxes piled up at the door, she went around and peeked into the canteen, "Ning Mei?"

"here I am."

A hoarse smoky voice came from behind the tall shelves, full of vicissitudes.

Ning Xingyi threw her schoolbag to the counter, and walked over to find that her little old lady was bending over to hold a box of eight-treasure porridge on the shelf.

"Hey, why are you moving here? If I lose my waist, I'll take care of you." Ning Xingyi took the heavy box, put it on the shelf with ease, and went out to move all the goods in for stacking.

He has been helping in the store since he was a child, and he has long been used to it.

"Why did you buy so much this time?"

"Yesterday, a boss said he wanted to buy from us. I see that you are about to go to college. It's time to save money for you. When you go to college, you can talk to a girlfriend. Don't buy gifts for others? So messed up?"

"What kind of girlfriend, I don't have a horoscope, I just like our Ning beauty, I don't like those vulgar fans, what kind of love is it, it will affect my study."

"You, nonsense every day, you don't want to find a girlfriend, but I still want to hug my great-grandson."

The old lady's name is Ning Lian, she was really a great beauty when she was young, now she is nearly sixty years old, the charm and temperament of her youth can still be seen from the corners of her eyes, brows and gestures.

Ning Lian poured a cup of herbal tea for him, and Ning Xingyi drank it all in one gulp. The herbal tea she had been drinking since she was a child also felt bitter.

"Ms. Ning, is your herbal tea boiled with coptis? Why is it so bitter, murder your own grandson." Ning Xingyi smacked her lips, put the cup on the counter, took a bottle of pure water from the shelf and filled more than half of it .

"Nonsense, no one uses Coptis chinensis to make herbal tea. Knowing that you don't like to drink too bitter, you put honeysuckle, tangerine peel and licorice..."

Ning Xingyi smacked her lips again, and said in unison with her: "There are still a little dandelions."

"I've been drinking this since I was a child, and I've been tired of drinking it for more than ten years." After Ning Xingyi finished speaking, she took the candy from the old lady's hand and threw it into the sky, opened her mouth to put it in her mouth, and pressed it to the side of her cheek, vaguely asked her, "What kind of candy is this?"

The old lady paused, "What's wrong?"

Ning Xingyi said: "Last time when Ling Chu saw that I was greedy, I insisted on asking him where I could buy it. You didn't give that little girl Lan Qing any food. I've never seen you so stingy. I From snacks to growing up, I have never seen it sold in our store."

The old lady clutched the cup in a daze, Ning Xingyi realized that she didn't answer for a long time after she finished speaking, so she reached out and waved her hand in front of her eyes, "Huh? What are you thinking?"

The old lady suddenly came back to her senses: "No, I didn't think about anything, how about making sugar water for you after school tomorrow night? Stewed Sydney with rock sugar or red bean tremella soup?"

"It's all right."

The old lady put down the cup in her hand, and suddenly saw the wounds and red marks on his neck, her eyes tightened, "What's wrong with your neck? Did you fight with someone again?"

Ning Xingyi was afraid that she would be worried, so he put his arms around her shoulders and walked out, "Maybe it's a little allergic, it's like this after scratching, it's nothing, don't worry."

The old lady frowned slightly, staring at the marks on his neck, which were indeed scratched out.

Is it?

Ning Xingyi saw her walking towards the counter, and hurriedly raised her hands in surrender: "I swear, there was really no fight today, if you don't believe me, you can ask Xu Che. Hey Ning Meiren, pay attention to your image, don't touch the feather duster."

Ning Xingyi is not afraid of heaven and earth, she has been afraid of Grandma Ning's feather duster since she was a child.

It's not painful, it's mostly embarrassing.

He's almost eighteen, and still let his grandma chase him half the street with a feather duster, isn't that plausible!

"You two wear a pair of pants, I won't ask him." Although Ning Lian said so, she still found the ointment and iodophor from the drawer, and gave him a blank look: "Go back and take a shower, put the medicine on yourself, The meal is ready, you can go to do your homework after eating without waiting for me."

"Alright." Ning Xingyi picked up her schoolbag and climbed upstairs.

Ning Lian looked at the back of his grandson leaving, his eyes suddenly darkened, and he turned to look at the sky outside.

There was still faint sky light just now, but now suddenly dark clouds cover, and the sky collapses and presses down, casting a dull shadow on the dilapidated Xiushui Road.

A bad premonition emerged from my heart.

After all, there is still a day to come, this cannot be avoided, no matter how far she takes Ning Xingyi, as long as she is still alive, the things she has to face are still unavoidable.

Ning Lian lowered her head and unconsciously grasped the fly swatter on one side with her fingers, becoming more and more engrossed.

"Aunt Ning, buy a pack of cigarettes."

Ning Lian raised her head, the haze in her eyes dissipated in an instant, took out a pack of cigarettes from the counter and handed it to the customer with a smile, and grabbed a handful of candy, "Take it for Lan Qing to eat."

"You're just spoiling her, arguing every day that you want to play with Grandma Ning. I think she just wants to eat candy. Well, I'll take it. Thank you, Aunt Ning." Uncle Jie laughed.

Uncle Jie's real name is Xu Jie, he is Xu Che's father, and he runs a car repair shop next door.

He was a rough man, and he was busy with business and often couldn't take care of his children, so he went to Ning Lian's place without one to take care of him. Xu Che spent more time at Ning's house than at his own.

Later, Xu Jie was introduced to find a very young woman, who worked neatly and looked refreshing. The neighbors said that with such a stepmother, the child Xu Che would have to suffer.

Even if she doesn't at first, she will definitely be bullied when she has her own child.

In the end, the woman didn't want her own child in a daze. More than ten years later, the couple finally had a little girl. Xiaolan followed Xu Che, as if she was sticking to something.

The child was only named Xiaoyaer after the full moon. Xu Jie scratched his head and said that he was not educated, so the couple asked Ning Lian to help them come up with a name.

People in Xiushui Road said that Ning Lian had a temperament, not like an ordinary old lady, but seeing how pitiful they were, no one asked much.

Ning Xingyi went upstairs to take a shower, and saw that there were large patches of red on her body, and the clothes she was used to were like a torture garment covered with spikes, and his skin hurt from rubbing, as if there were thin needles coming from his body. The pores are precisely pierced.

He's probably really allergic.

Ning Xingyi unscrewed the shower and took a step back with a "wow" from the hot water, stretched out her fingertips to dial in the cold water, no matter how she adjusted it, she felt uncomfortable, it was either hot or cold.

He simply took a cold shower, and prepared to write two papers after dinner. Although he has been messing around in the past few years, he can barely keep up with his studies. In the future, it will be no problem to pass the entrance examination to an ordinary university.

Anyway, Ning Lian didn't ask him to do well in the exam.

Passing by the shrine, he stopped and stepped back, picked up the lighter and lit three sticks of incense, bowed respectfully and inserted them into the incense burner, replenishing the incense that was about to burn out.

On both sides of the shrine are two little spirit tablets carved in lacquered wood. On the dark reddish black wood are carved white small seal characters, enshrining his parents.

Speaking of his father, Ning Xingyi has no memory at all. He doesn't even know what he looks like. These two names don't seem to have anything to do with him. He has been named after his grandma since he was a child.

As long as he can remember, there have been these two spiritual tablets at home, and the three sticks of incense a day have never been extinguished.

For him, they are two strangers separated by yin and yang.

When he was a child, he asked why other people had parents, grandparents, and grandparents, but he only had his grandma. No one praised him for his [-] points in the exam, and his grandma went to the parent meeting.

He asked grandma, but couldn't get an answer, so he ran out to find his parents, that's when he met Lu Hengjiang.

It was also at that time that he first knew what a sentinel was.

At that time, the little Lu Hengjiang threw him a handkerchief in disgust, Ning Xingyi took it and wiped his nose and tears, and Lu Hengjiang gave him another box of fruit candies.

Ning Xingyi has been addicted to sweets since she was a child, and she did not eat less sugar, but she has never eaten such delicious food.

"You can't beat them, why do you still want to fight?" Lu Hengjiang sat beside him, seeing his little cheeks stretched out by the candy, couldn't help poking him, it was so soft.

Ning Xingyi hurt from being poked by him, avoided his hand, and said angrily, "Don't worry about it."

"Do you know Sentinels?"

Ning Xingyi shook his head, and looked blankly at the boy who was much taller than him, "What is that?"

"He is a very powerful person who can win anyone you want to win. One day I will become a sentinel!" Lu Hengjiang was not very big at that time, but in the same little Ning Xingyi's heart, he buried his heart. A hidden fire, shining light all the time.

sentinel.

He kept these two words in his heart.

He will definitely be the Sentinel, the one who is undefeated!

Ning Xingyi reached out to remove the not-so-fresh fruit on the altar, bent down and picked up two newly bought apples and put them on, blowing on the scattered ashes, the young man cleared his throat with a hint of loneliness, and for the first time showed a childlike smile. confused.

"But dad, why doesn't grandma allow me to enter the military academy?"

Standing in front of the altar, he lowered his head slightly as if he was helpless. He had never seen his parents, and there was no portrait at home, only two wooden plaques were placed on the altar. Ning Xingyi didn't even know what his parents looked like.

He also asked when he was a child, but Ning Lian refused to tell him until the time he got lost.

Ning Lian dragged him to the shrine, pointed to the two cold wooden signs and said, "You have parents, they are here, they don't even have bones, they are already dead, understand!"

Ning Xingyi was only four years old at that time, an ignorant age who didn't understand anything, and was exposed to the profound topic of death for the first time.

You have parents who are dead.

This sentence was like a knife, cutting open the hope he had just been able to condense, pulling it out abruptly, and then slashing it down with the knife, splitting the unformed dream into two halves.

He wanted to cry, but seeing Ning Lian's expression, he held back his tears and nodded foolishly, "Grandma, Xing Xing knows."

Ning Lian hugged him, buried her head in his neck and cried, "My dear star."

Ning Xingyi hugged her shoulders, his small hand wanted to pat Ning Lian's back but couldn't reach it, so he had to pat him on the shoulder at the next best thing, and promised in a childlike voice: "Grandma is not afraid, the stars grow up I want to become a sentinel! Protect you instead of Dad!"

It was that day when Ning Lian hit him for the first time.

The heavy slap exploded on the face, and Ning Xingyi's tears fell instantly. She was at a loss and didn't dare to move. It can't be said that she was afraid or something. Ning Xingyi still remembers the look in Ning Lian's eyes at that time to this day.

"You are not allowed to mention these two words again!"

Ning Xingyi let out a long breath, forget it.

If he doesn't take the military academy exam, he won't take the exam, and it's the same if he doesn't want to be a sentinel. As long as he can protect the people he wants to protect, he will do the same.

After Ning Xingyi finished her mental training, she took out two pieces of candy from her pocket, one for each of her parents, and patted on the small wooden sign: "It's almost done, I'll talk to you tomorrow, good night."

Ning Xingyi put her phone on the bed to charge before taking a bath, and when she came back, a message popped up, which was sent by Ling Chu.

"Brother Ning, I have a difficulty in choosing, can you help me choose?"

Ning Xingyi opened WeChat and was almost blinded by the pictures in it. Are all their guides so good at playing?

Now the guide's neck ring is sold publicly, and the chip can be removed and replaced at any time like a phone card, so many bloggers will evaluate the style and comfort of the neck ring.

What Ling Chu sent over at this time was a blogger's evaluation picture, with a slightly tight ribbon wrapped around her white neck, outlining a beautiful neck curve.

In addition to this kind of silk embroidery, there are also leather, metal, lace and various materials. Bloggers take pictures from various angles with text for evaluation.

Ning Xingyi's scalp was numb, she poked the screen and said, "Your guides are playing so hard?"

"What kind of flower, please tell me which one looks better? I feel like God Lu doesn't like my neck ring today. I want to change to a nice one. Maybe he will praise me tomorrow?"

Ning Xingyi could feel Ling Chu's coquettishness through the screen, and wanted to tell him to drink more hot water and stop dreaming twice, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a name in the chat bar, and deleted the words he just typed.

[If he doesn't like it, you can ask him to see it. Why are you looking for me?The one I like is your male god? 】

Ling Chu replied quickly, [I dare not, and I don't have his WeChat. 】

[No prospect, just call Dad and help you. 】

Ling Chu was decisive, 【Dad! 】

Ning Xingyi looked at the two words that popped out almost instantly, and was stunned by Ling Chu's dog legs. She thought to herself what is so good about Lu Hengjiang, and everyone flocked to him.

Say you like him?

but.

If Lu Hengjiang saw these pictures, he didn't know what it would be like, Ning Xing wanted to see how unhappy he was, so he sent over a dozen pictures in a row, "Hey, choose a good-looking one."

The author has something to say:
