Almost a week has passed unknowingly, and Nancheng in early March already has the taste of early spring, but occasionally there are signs of coldness.In the past week, Liang Song came to school for only a handful of times, and he didn't find Su Lesheng on WeChat.

Except for sometimes approaching Su Lesheng inexplicably, he was basically like a neighbor's big dog that looked a little scary but not aggressive.

Because that day Su Lesheng's boxing money was directly used by Lao Ba to pay off his gambling debts, and the debt collectors didn't come to the door for several days, so it was rare for Su Lesheng to hide.In the past few days, Aunt Liu’s clerk in Shaxian County happened to ask for leave, so Su Lesheng went there every day after school to help wash the dishes, tidy up the table, and borrowed the light from the store to do his homework.Aunt Liu provided him with a dinner, and if he paid more, he would not ask for anything.

"You're here?"

That night Zheng Shuang stayed in the hall, and it was almost nine o'clock when Su Lesheng arrived at the store.The store was already empty, and Aunt Liu came out of the kitchen while wiping her hands with an apron: "Is it late after school? Come and sit for a while, and see how sweaty you are."

[Sorry, I'm going to wash the dishes now. 】

Su Lesheng ran over after getting out of the car.He walked towards the kitchen while panting, but was stopped by Aunt Liu with a smile.

"It's okay, someone is working in the kitchen."

Someone is working?

Su Lesheng glanced in the direction of the kitchen, and sure enough, he saw a swaying figure beside the oil-stained wall, and the sound of the edge of the bowl hitting the edge of the pot made a loud bang.

He understood immediately.

[Am I still coming tomorrow? 】

"What?" Aunt Liu was stunned for a moment before she understood what Su Lesheng meant. She smiled, "Don't worry, I just happened to meet him to help you. Auntie will continue to use you, huh?"

【Excuse me. 】

Only then did Su Lesheng realize that he was thinking too much.He pursed his lips in embarrassment, and cleaned up the trash can under the dining table for Aunt Liu, and put a new trash bag on it.

While working, he glanced at the notice on the wall, but there was still no update.On the contrary, a large promotional poster was pasted on the side, saying that Zheng Fei, the eldest son and vice president of the Zheng Group, had recently visited the Mutual Aid Association to send warmth in person, with at least a few hundred words of eloquence.A group photo of Zheng Fei and the members of the association was printed in the middle. For some reason, he was clearly smiling, but his eyes always made Su Lesheng shudder, like being stared at by a vulture of prey.

Su Lesheng moved his eyes slightly with trembling eyelashes.

"It's okay, it's my fault that I didn't make it clear."

Aunt Liu seems to be in a good mood today, she kept smiling: "The rubbish is piled up by the wall, throw it to the back door for me, and be careful not to step on the smelly water."

In response, Su Lesheng picked up two large black garbage bags half a person's height, and walked towards the garbage dump at the back door.He deftly stepped over the foul-smelling sewage flowing across the ground, accidentally startling a few feral cats looking for food.

When he came back, he saw Aunt Liu came out of the kitchen with a bowl of sauce and rice with big bones and put it on the sticky wooden table.

"Eat, you must be hungry after such a trip."

Su Lesheng rubbed his dusty hands on his trouser legs, looked at the big bone that was smelly and oily and then at Aunt Liu, but he didn't move.

The price of pork has been horribly high recently, and even the meat dishes in the store have increased by several yuan.

He can't afford it.

"Let's eat. Just now a customer ordered takeaway, and I prepared everything. He temporarily refunded the order, which made me very angry." Aunt Liu pushed the bowl in front of Su Lesheng again, "It's a waste if you don't eat it, it's a waste nice one."

She didn't seem like Su Lesheng was looking pale recently and wanted to give Su Lesheng an extra meal, but it seemed that Su Lesheng was doing her a big favor.

Su Lesheng couldn't refuse, so he could only pretend that he didn't see her good intentions.When he lowered his head to smoke the disposable chopsticks, his nose was inexplicably sore.

But I have to say that the sauced big bone is really delicious, and the piece of meat that Aunt Liu picked for him is particularly large.Su Lesheng was reluctant to eat, so he finished the side dishes and the rice mixed with the sauce first, and then started to gnaw on the bones.

When the stewed meat melted between his lips and teeth, he heard a familiar voice.

"Auntie, the dishes have been washed, what else can I do?"

Su Lesheng even forgot to swallow the meat in his mouth, and looked up at the kitchen door.

"There's nothing else, you go back first, it's really hard for you today."

"It's all right."

There seemed to be a gentle smile in Liang Song's voice.In the next second, his figure appeared under the flickering lights of Shaxian snacks because the light bulb was about to go out.

Su Lesheng saw that he was wearing the apron he had worn in the past few days.The hem is stuck at the thigh, which looks a little funny for no reason.

Su Lesheng couldn't help but tugged at the corner of his lips, lowered his head and gnawed on the bones in the bowl, praying in his heart that Liang Song would treat him as an innocent diner.

But this is obviously impossible.

"Le Sheng."

Liang Song called his name familiarly, walked over and sat opposite him: "Are you here too?"

Su Lesheng was a little at a loss.

He put down the bowl and nodded, right as a greeting.

【Why are you here? 】

"I have often come to the store to eat for a while, and I passed by today, so I stopped by to help."

"Oh, I want to introduce you two, so you know each other."

Aunt Liu walked out of the kitchen behind Liang Song, looked at their identical school uniforms, and smiled: "Student?"

"classmate."

"That's it." Aunt Liu said "Oh", "By the way, Xiao Liang, this meeting happens to be free. Take off your school uniform, and Auntie will mend it for you."

What she was talking about was the big gap on Liang Song's sleeve.I don't know why, after so many days, he still can't bear to make up.

Su Lesheng couldn't help but raised his eyes from the side of the bowl, and took a peek at Liang Song.

"It's okay, auntie, I'm fine like this." Liang Song looked down at his sleeve as if nothing had happened, and pulled out a loose thread from the gap.

"What does that look like?" Aunt Liu gave a "tsk" incomprehension, "Le Sheng, don't you think so?"

Su Lesheng didn't react, and subconsciously nodded.

Liang Song's eyes immediately dropped from the corner of his eye, revealing that aggrieved puppy look.

Completely subconsciously, Su Lesheng quickly shook his head again.

"You kid, what do you mean by nodding and shaking your head?" Aunt Liu smiled and waved her hands helplessly, "Forget it, I don't understand you young people, just wear what you can."

"Speaking of which, since you know each other and have similar experiences, you will just support and take care of each other in the future."

Liang Song said "yes": "Lesheng took good care of me, and even helped me buy cold medicine."

What is he talking about?

Su Lesheng almost choked on himself.He couldn't walk, and he didn't know what to "speak", so he could only gnaw his head on the big bone with red ears, pretending that he didn't hear anything.

"Is that so?" The smile on Aunt Liu's lips widened, "Lesheng is a good kid. He has good grades and loves to help others. The shop assistant asked for leave these days. He washed the dishes for me before you came. It's clean and saves water, let me tell you, it's a pity that he is a Beta, if she is an Omega, she will definitely be a good wife..."

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Su Lesheng was really choked this time.The hot feeling spread from the lungs, throat all the way to the cheeks.He covered his mouth and turned his back, wishing that the crack in the wall could be bigger so that he could get in.

"Oh, you child, eat slowly." Aunt Liu quickly leaned over and patted Su Lesheng on the back, "Have you choked on the food? I'll get you some water."

The boiled water was delivered to Su Lesheng's lips quickly.Reflexively, he leaned over to take a sip, and the cold feeling spread from his throat, slightly suppressing the burning feeling.

He stroked his chest, raised his head and realized that it was not Aunt Liu who poured water for him, but Liang Song.

He didn't reach out to take the cup just now, but he drank from Liang Song's hand.But now Liang Song's face was only a few feet away from him, he lowered his head, his high nose was very close to Su Lesheng's collarbone and neck.

It looks like it's... sniffing something.

Su Lesheng flinched back.

"What's wrong?" Liang Song seemed unaware of all this.He raised his head, his face looked innocent, "Still uncomfortable? Do you want to have another drink..."

【I go first. 】

Su Le stood up abruptly, interrupting Liang Song's words.

"Let's go now? Don't you do your homework here?" Aunt Liu was taken aback.

[I finished writing in the classroom. 】

Su Lesheng dropped this sentence, walked two steps away and then turned back, blushing and added something to Aunt Liu.

[Thank you, the big bone rice is delicious. 】

[I will be there on time tomorrow. 】

It was quite late at night.There are no people on the uneven concrete road, only street lamps illuminating the street trees on both sides, and an old couple peeling the wires with small pliers under the light of the street lamps.Su Lesheng walked a long way, and suddenly found that the heat on his face didn't seem to fade away at all.

He found himself still thinking about Liang Song.

Seeing how Aunt Liu and Liang Song get along, they have a good relationship.Aunt Liu also said that they have "similar experiences", how are they similar?

Could it be that there are also lost relatives in Liang Song's family?

But isn't he both parents?

A gust of "huhu" night wind blew by, interrupting Su Lesheng's thoughts.He slowed down and gathered the collar of his school uniform, and heard low footsteps behind him, following his own pace.

Su Lesheng stopped vigilantly, and dodged sideways behind the tall street tree.

The footsteps then stopped.

The half-disappeared moon was hidden in the clouds, and a group of night birds whizzed across the twilight overhead.Su Lesheng's heart hung in his chest, but at this moment he heard a familiar voice with a smile.

"it's me."

Su Lesheng heaved a sigh of relief, and turned around from behind the tree to look at Liang Song.

[Don't take this road to Wubuting. 】

"I know." Liang Song forced a smile, lowered his brows and eyes, "but I can't go home tonight."

Su Lesheng looked at him suspiciously.

Liang Song said nothing, Su Lesheng's eyes moved down, and gradually landed on his deep collarbone, two deep purple bruises that were palm-length.

【how did you make it? 】Su Lesheng's eyelashes trembled, and he looked away.

"It's okay." Liang Song's voice was very low.While speaking, he pulled up the zipper of the school uniform a little, just to cover the scar.He didn't say clearly who beat him and why, but Su Lesheng had an intuition that it was the debt collectors.

It was the first time that Su Lesheng really realized that no matter how Liang Song gave him the impression of a wolf and an experienced hunter, he was still a high school student.

As for those debt collectors, Su Lesheng knew them too well.Once they couldn't understand Liang Song, or were simply in a bad mood, they could do anything to drive him to nowhere.

[Where are your parents? 】

"They are out of town and can't control me."

[Then what are you going to do now? 】

After Su Lesheng asked this sentence, he realized that something was wrong.Because people who ask others what they plan to do usually have the ability to help the other party through difficulties, but he cannot protect himself.

"Just... find a place to live for the night." Liang Songqiang cheered up and looked at Su Lesheng.

Su Lesheng's eyelashes trembled, and he felt that he still had the second half of the sentence, but for some reason, he didn't say it clearly.

Su Lesheng lowered his eyes, turned and walked towards home.

Liang Song silently followed behind him, and the shadows of the two overlapped and parted under the streetlight.The journey from Shaxian Snacks to the downstairs of Tongzi was only 10 minutes, but Su Lesheng felt that it had been a long time.

"Good night."

When he walked to the sofa in the corridor, Liang Song suddenly said to Su Lesheng.

Su Lesheng was taken aback.

【Good night. 】

He typed something back to Liang Song, and when he opened the door, he turned his head and saw Liang Song with his schoolbag under his neck, his tall body curled up on the sofa like last time.

"Acquisition: old refrigerators, old color TVs, old mobile phones, paper scraps, ingot paste..."

Lao Li pedaled a tricycle around the neighborhood playing waste collection advertisements on a loop, his broken gong-like voice accompanied by the song "The Shepherd of Hoh Xil" bleakly resounded through the sky.

Su Lesheng sighed, picked up the drink bottle thrown there by someone in the corridor, and closed the door.

The wind was very strong at night, blowing in from outside the corridor.I don't know which family's windows were blown out, and there were a few violent swear words and the sound of repairing things.

After a while the voice subsided, and the door of 208 opened.

Su Lesheng came out with an old blanket in his arms, picked up the school uniform kicked to the ground for Liang Song, and put the blanket on him.

Liang Song really fell asleep, he didn't wake up after making such a loud noise.But that's fine, Su Lesheng heaved a sigh of relief and walked back. When the door closed with a "click", the person lying on the sofa opened his eyes.

The blanket on her body was very soft, with the sweet scent of jasmine that belonged to the little mute.Su Lesheng's estrus period passed without any restraint stickers, and the smell on his body was no longer hindered, and it was soaked into almost every fiber of the blanket.

Liang Song buried his nose between the blankets and sniffed deeply.

The next day was the weekend, and as soon as it dawned in the morning, Su Lesheng went out to buy groceries and just opened the door when he saw a smiling face full of energy.

"Good morning."

Liang Song stood in the corridor, his dark eyes were bright: "Thank you for the blanket, it's very warm."

【What blanket? 】

Su Lesheng was embarrassed for a moment, and wanted to walk directly past Liang Song.

"Ah, didn't you give me the blanket last night?" Liang Song was startled, the bright look in his eyes dimmed, "I thought you gave it to me..."

[I gave it to you. 】

Su Lesheng didn't want to admit it at first, but seeing his disappointed look, he somehow couldn't help but tell the truth 【Don't get dirty, pay me back later. 】

"I won't get dirty!" Liang Song immediately laughed again, followed Su Lesheng downstairs, reached for something when passing by the sofa, "By the way, this is for you."

A square and hard object was stuffed into Su Lesheng's arms.He looked down, and it turned out to be the first and second volumes of "A Dream of Red Mansions" from the People's Literature Publishing House, brand new.

"Did the Chinese teacher say last time that the quiz needs to test the content of the first fifteen chapters, and also check whether everyone has bought books?"

As if he was afraid that Su Lesheng would not accept it, Liang Song added: "I bought it at a discount at the stand of the bookstore when I passed by, it's not expensive."

In fact, when he was in junior high school, Su Lesheng read "Dream of Red Mansions" several times in the library.

The Chinese teacher said that he wanted to check whether everyone had bought books, but he knew Su Lesheng's situation, so he wouldn't embarrass him if he didn't have any books.

But for some reason, Su Lesheng didn't tell Liang Song these words.

【thanks. 】

It was raining a little outside, so he carefully put the book in a plastic bag for grocery shopping and carried it on his body. When he went downstairs, a little orange cat jumped out of nowhere, which startled him.

Su Lesheng made a gesture to chase after him, but Xiaoju had already scurried into the cave not far away, and through the rusty iron gate, swearing at him among the scattered bicycles and electric cars.

As usual, Su Lesheng didn't even bother fighting with the cat.Today, I somehow feel that this little guy is so arrogant and amusing.He picked up a glass marble from the ground, took off the hair tie on his head, wrapped it around his fingertips as a slingshot, and shot it in Xiaoju's direction.

Xiaoju jumped up in fright.The marble "Gululu" rolled under its feet and fell into the invisible darkness.

It froze for a moment, and cursed louder than before.

Su Lesheng couldn't help but pursed his lips, clapped his hands and turned around.

"Why is it called so..."

Liang Song followed down, frowned at the hoarse Xiaoju, as if looking for a suitable adjective.

After a while he gave up: "Why is it so ugly, is this a cat?"

[Get used to it, its mother is like this. 】

"You still know its mother?"

[Its mother's nickname is Trumpet, and all the people nearby who make ugly sounds are its children. 】

"Trumpet?" Liang Song repeated the name, laughing, "Who came up with this name, it's quite cute."

【do not know. 】

The "very cute" Su Lesheng was embarrassed again.He asked Liang Song not to follow him. After buying groceries, he walked home with two books in his arms. He realized that his rain-wet hair was getting in the way. When he raised his hand to hold his hair, he realized that his hair tie was gone again. up.

Strange, it can't be eaten by Xiaoju, right?The big bag of hair ties I bought before has been used up, Su Lesheng thought while wrapping a towel around his hair.

Liang Song just stayed in the corridor of Su Lesheng's house, and the time is undecided.Every morning when Su Lesheng went out with his schoolbag on his back, he could be seen waiting for him downstairs.

At first, Su Lesheng refused to let Liang Song follow him, but within two days this "principle" was relaxed, and Liang Song couldn't sit next to him on the bus, and then, Liang Song couldn't sit next to him in school. Talk to yourself.

Unlike before, Su Lesheng's "principle" is unshakable.At the beginning, Liang Song always asked Su Lesheng why he refused to talk to him.Su Lesheng didn't answer, so he gradually stopped asking, and "obediently" kept a distance from Su Lesheng in the school.

Not even the sofa in the corridor.

Now, Su Lesheng felt a little uncomfortable.
