The Canary's Trap

Lu Ling gritted her teeth, and decided to take the initiative by herself and show affection to Shen Yuchuan.

In the afternoon at the end of July, the sun was hot and dry, and occasionally a few breezes brushed my face, which made people feel less scorching.

Shen Yuchuan no longer sits on the steps to calculate problems, the sun is too bright, he instead sits under the thick poplar outside the garden, leaning against the tree trunk, sometimes reading, sometimes putting the pen behind his ear to think about problems.

He likes to wear simple solid-color T-shirts, which look clean and comfortable. When he lowers his head, the curve of his tall nose is very eye-catching.

Lu Ling admitted that he was deeply attracted by this handsome face.

He felt that if he wanted to get close to anyone, he had to give a decent gift, so he picked two airplane models that he loved the most from his pile of toys. Although he was a bit reluctant, when he thought that it was for Shen Yuchuan, his heart immediately Be generous.

Shen Yuchuan looks so smart, a good toy should be given to such a person.

But obviously, Shen Yuchuan didn't buy it.

When he saw Lu Ling approaching from a distance with a bright smile on his face, he frowned impatiently, closed the book in his hand, and prepared to leave.

Seeing this, Lu Ling rushed in front of him with a stride, and said in a clear voice, "Brother, you are here. I have been looking for you for a long time."

Shen Yuchuan rolled his eyelids, but didn't say anything.

"I'm Lu Ling, brother, do you remember?" He blinked his big eyes, "I see you are always alone and don't play with us, how boring."

After Shen Yuchuan heard this, he thought to himself: How can we be together with you young masters and princesses?

Lu Ling couldn't see his rejection of her: "Brother, this is my favorite airplane model, and I give it to you." As he said, he held it in front of him with both hands like offering treasures.

Shen Yuchuan pushed it away irritably, and slightly parted her thin lips: "Take it away, I don't like these things."

Lu Ling paused for a moment, a little at a loss, he had never been rejected so disgustingly before, he lost his mind for a while, and said falteringly: "Brother... Then, what do you like, I can take you to my room pick."

Shen Yuchuan felt that he might not understand what he meant, he rejected these arrogant little flowers raised in the greenhouse from the bottom of his heart, they are not from the same world when they are born, so there is no need to make friends.

"No need." So he refused and strode forward.

Lu Ling was a little pissed off by his indifference, and stomped his feet anxiously: "You...huh! If you don't want it, then don't, I'm not willing to give it!"

The voice was neither too loud nor too soft, and it just reached Shen Yuchuan's ears. He turned his head and stared at Lu Ling for a while, and slowly pursed his lips.

Lu Ling showed embarrassment and slapped him a few times.

When Shen Yuchuan walked forward again, he couldn't help following.

Shen Yuchuan is tall and walks fast, Lu Ling can only trot all the way, sweating profusely, and still talking to Shen Yuchuan noisy: "Brother, you don't like model airplanes, so what do you like?"

"Ah, I still have a few Transformers. Dad bought it for my birthday."

"I like the toys my dad bought, but those older sisters don't like them very much. They always like to buy me fluffy dolls. I'm a boy, how can I play with things that girls like."

Just like that, after walking for a while, Shen Yuchuan seemed to feel bored, and finally stopped. Lu Ling was unsteady, stopped walking, and bumped straight into his back.

Before Shen Yuchuan could react, Lu Ling's little white lotus arms wrapped around his waist, his body froze, and he pushed the person over with force.

Lu Ling staggered several steps back and fell to the ground.

Shen Yuchuan's complexion changed, and he looked at him blankly, only to see that the young master's eye circles were suddenly red, with tears in his eyes, and his little face was wrinkled together.

Lu Ling's skin is tender, and he would bruise for a long time if he touched any of them. At this moment, by accident, his knee was knocked on a few fallen stones. The sun was scalding hot, and the wound was torn and bled, making the pain even hotter.

Shen Yuchuan was surprised, and pulled him up in astonishment: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, you...why did you hug me all of a sudden—"

"I'm afraid I'll fall..." Lu Ling answered aggrievedly.

Shen Yuchuan's heart softened when he heard this: "Okay, I'm sorry, brother, let me see your wound."

Lu Ling nodded obediently, and was lifted up by Shen Yuchuan. The wound was indeed a bit big and still bleeding. The young master was so delicate, so naturally he couldn't bear the pain, so he had no choice but to caress the person and go back to the room.

Lu Ling guided him to find the medicine box, Shen Yuchuan took out anti-inflammatory water and cotton swabs, took a good look at the young master who was sitting on the sofa all day, and walked straight over.

Lu Ling hissed and asked him, "Brother, does the anti-inflammatory water sting the wound?"

Shen Yuchuan replied: "A little bit, bear with it."

Lu Ling hesitated for a while: "Well, I'll bear it." Then she tensed up with a small face, with a look of generosity.

Normally, Shen Yuchuan would mock him for his coquettishness, but after all, he was the one who hurt someone, so he should comfort him: "I'll try to be as gentle as possible."

Then according to the words, the movements were indeed much softer.

Lu Ling looked at him bowing his head seriously, feeling happy in his heart, feeling that his injury was really worth it.

The relationship between the two has only quietly changed since then.

After that, Lu Ling ran behind Shen Yuchuan's butt as usual, calling "Brother" sweetly and crisply, and Shen Yuchuan no longer resisted his approaching.When the two of them were together, Lu Ling always talked a lot to himself, and he mostly nodded and shook his head to express his point of view.

But the young master didn't care at all, he seemed to have endless enthusiasm and energy, just like a chirping little magpie, and also a stalker that Shen Yuchuan couldn't get rid of.

He would show Shen Yuchuan his various limited-edition toys. If Shen Yuchuan was not interested, he would give him books, which were rare edition books that were in short supply in the market.

In return, he would bring the young master some gadgets that he had never eaten or played with from the stalls outside.

Lu Ling is very easy to coax, a little sugar man can make him happy for a long time, Shen Yuchuan gradually found that this young master is actually very simple and cute, except for the spoiled golden and precious squeamishness on his body, there is nothing too annoying.

They didn't have much time to see each other, just a few hours in the morning, after that, Shen's father would call him to take tutoring.

But these short few hours are Lu Ling's happiest time. Shen Yuchuan is different from his brothers and sisters. They will only indulge themselves infinitely. Shen Yuchuan will directly point out what he did wrong. He is also encouraged to do things by himself.

For example, when Shen Yuchuan was seriously calculating, he was bored playing jigsaw puzzles. When he really had no patience to complete the puzzles, he liked to act like a baby with him and seek shortcuts. Fight well.

But Shen Yuchuan would only give him some suggestions that were better than nothing, and would personally watch him until he finished.

Lu Ling would leave with her lips pouted angrily, and then secretly swear that she would never talk to Shen Yuchuan again.

But this kind of determination fell apart when the sun rose the next day, and he would still follow Shen Yuchuan idly, willing to be his little tail.

At that time, Lu Ling liked to do some risky things that were forbidden by his family, such as climbing trees and over walls.Shen Yuchuan never stopped him like others did, but stood beside him and said to him seriously: "Brother, just do it, I will protect you."

Lu Ling would look at him with a bright smile on his face.

As time passed, Lu Ling became more daring in front of Shen Yuchuan. After all, he was the young master who was spoiled and spoiled.

He never played the young master's temper, he always liked to put his arms around Shen Yuchuan's waist and call his brother, he could upset Shen Yuchuan but he was helpless, even if he asked him for the stars in the sky, he had to pick them with a sullen head.

The last time they met was in an amusement park where colorful balloons and soft-winged kites were flying all over the sky. Lu Ling was afraid of heights, so Shen Yuchuan hugged him and sat on the Ferris wheel.

Lu Ling closed his eyes in fright, and pressed his head against Shen Yuchuan's chest. When the Ferris wheel reached the highest point, Shen Yuchuan forced him to look up at the low ground, where Father Shen looked at them with a smile, and pressed the button. The shutter took a few pictures of the two of them.

Shen Yuchuan took Lu Ling down and asked him to choose a few photos he liked. Lu Ling chose a group photo of the two of them, and Shen Yuchuan chose a single photo with Lu Ling's camera very close.

In the next half month, Shen Yuchuan disappeared into his world without warning.

Lu Ling didn't see Shen Yuchuan for several days in a row, feeling anxious, finally couldn't help but went to find Shen's father, but what he got was the news that Shen Yuchuan had gone abroad with his mother.

"Uncle Shen, when will that brother come back?"

Father Shen's expression was gloomy, and he gave him an unclear answer, saying that it was next summer vacation, or he would not come back.

"Young master, it is better for Yu Chuan to follow his mother than to follow me. It would be great to go abroad, and he will definitely have a bright future."

Six-year-old Lu Ling didn't understand the obsession between adults. He raised his head and asked innocently: "When my brother comes back, uncle must bring him to play."

Father Shen smiled and stroked his hair: "Well, don't worry, young master, I will bring him to you."

Lu Ling nodded obediently, but he didn't know that later, he could see Shen Yuchuan, but he could never see Father Shen holding his hand again.

And Lu Ling's memory of Shen Yuchuan finally stagnated at the end of midsummer, when the cicadas were singing the happiest.

On the first day, Shen Yuchuan shared the same bunch of candied haws with him without any grievances. In the blink of an eye, that person left without even saying goodbye.

Like sparks across the sky, without a trace in the end.

Lu Ling felt that Shen Yuchuan never regarded him as a friend, and from the beginning to the end, it was his wishful thinking who was entangled with Shen Yuchuan.

——"Brother is good or bad."

This was six-year-old Lu Ling's last comment on ten-year-old Shen Yuchuan.
