cute and cool

Since the last voice call, Qiao Beixin often hung up the voice call.At the beginning, I would look for reasons, but later I simply didn't even need to explain.

The summer vacation for prospective high school seniors is not easy. After a short break, the school started a two-week make-up class, but compared with the normal semester class, there are less self-study in the morning and evening, and less Saturday class schedule.

In the evening, get out of class ends early, and Cheng Jing doesn't have time to pick him up; Cheng Wanyu has been living in his new lover's house for the past two years, and he knows that his two sons don't want to see him, so he usually goes home less often.

Cheng Wang returned home at night, and he was alone in the big empty house.

Fortunately, he has long been used to this kind of life.

On the last day of summer supplementary classes, Cheng Jing came home with good news: he was going to take his annual leave and was going to take Cheng Wang out for a walk.

The study in the third year of high school was boring and tense. Although I didn't worry about my younger brother's grades at all, it was still necessary to relax at the right time.

The two brothers hung around outside for more than half a month, Cheng Jing was almost peeling off from the sun, but Cheng Wang looked like a normal person, unscathed.

The last stop of this journey is in Liangshi.

There is a very famous temple in Liangshi, and it is said that praying for the cause is particularly effective.

Cheng Wang didn't believe this, but Cheng Jing believed it so badly that he insisted on dragging him along, and knelt on the futon together according to Cheng Wang, praying devoutly.

He never worried about his younger brother's academic performance, and only hoped that the two brothers and his mother would be happy.

When leaving here, Cheng Wang asked for a stack of purses.

Cheng Jing laughed at him: "Who didn't believe it just now?"

"Just now was just now, now is now." Cheng Wang said guiltily.

It is difficult for people to remain indifferent in a solemn and solemn place.There are too many people of the same age in the temple, and most of them are accompanied by their parents to pray for a smooth exam.Cheng Wang had no choice but to be infected.

But he thinks very simply, he just hopes that next year's college entrance examination, he and his good friends can perform normally and get admitted to the ideal school smoothly.

A few days later, the final relaxation before the college entrance examination was over, and they returned to Qinshi.

After returning home, Cheng Wang immediately sent a message to his classmates, handing out purses one by one.

Qiao Beixin also has one.

"What is this?" Qiao Beixin asked him with a smile while pinching the small blue purse in his hand.

Cheng Wang put his face in his hands, sipped his milk tea and said, "Hebao, I begged for it when my elder brother and I went out to play, and I will give it to you! Next year's college entrance examination goes well!"

Qiao Beixin didn't refuse, stuffed it into his pants pocket, and thanked him.

His hands were under the table, Cheng Wang couldn't see how he was gently stroking the tie on the purse, how it was wrapped around his hand, and untied again and again.

After giving away the purse and drinking delicious milk tea, Cheng Wang went home happily.

When he opened the door, he saw Cheng Wanyu sitting on the sofa watching TV.

Cheng Wang didn't know that he was going home today, so he froze immediately.Soon he realized that this was not good.

This was their home in the first place, and Cheng Wanyu's return home shouldn't have stunned him.

He called out "Dad".

"I heard that you went out with Xiao Jing some time ago?" Cheng Wanyu turned off the TV and focused on talking to him.

"……Um."

Cheng Wanyu said: "You study well, I don't worry about it, but you still have to tell Dad when you go on a trip, even if you go out with Xiao Jing." He paused, and then said, "I don't worry about Xiao Jing getting older, but you It's still young after all."

Cheng Wang responded, and found an excuse to enter the bedroom.

He really forgot to say.

He has been firmly under the wing of Cheng Jing, and when it comes to his family, he will always think of his elder brother.He also knew that his father was the elder brother's inverse, and that whenever he mentioned it, he would immediately detonate it.bomb.

He lay in a daze on his bed.To be honest, Cheng Wanyu didn't treat him well when he first came here.

He still doesn't know how Wang Yan persuaded Cheng Wanyu. He only remembers that when he was brought back, the family who treated him best was actually Jiang Shi.

It was the poor original wife who had been betrayed by her husband.

He also didn't know why Jiang Shi didn't take Cheng Jing away after the divorce.

He only knew that since Jiang Shi left, the family was full of quarrels all day long.At the worst time, Cheng Jing even fought with Cheng Wanyu.

That year, Cheng Wang was 10 years old.

He watched Cheng Jing wipe off the blood from the corner of his mouth, and left the house with a cold snort; he also watched Cheng Wanyu trembling with anger, pointing at Cheng Jing, but unable to say a complete and coherent sentence, he could only slam the bedroom door bitterly .

Cheng Wang has never had the right to choose or the opportunity since he was a child.He couldn't choose his parents, he couldn't choose himself.It seems that his birth was never expected by anyone.

But on that day, relying on his intuition, he made the first choice in his life.

He followed Cheng Jing and left home.

Since then, there are only two brothers in this family.

When Qiao Beixin's message came, Cheng Wang's cell phone was being held down by himself.Under the buttocks, there were three consecutive vibrations that scared him to get up from the bed.

Qiao Beixin sent him two photos, which were the blue purse he had just given away.

-Joe: It's so pretty.

Cheng Wang smiled dejectedly, and typed back: Of course, this is my choice.

As soon as the message was sent, Qiao Beixin's voice call hung up.

Cheng Wang only said "Hello", and Qiao Beixin keenly noticed that his emotions were not right.

"...Huh?" Qiao Beixin asked suspiciously, "What's the matter? Didn't you have a good time just now?"

Cheng Wang could have made jokes to fool him, but he was really tired.He fell backwards, sank into the soft blanket, and said sullenly, "It's hard to say."

Speaking of this topic, Cheng Wang felt that he should talk to his eldest brother.He cut to the chat interface with Cheng Jing and told him that Cheng Wanyu had gone home.

Cheng Jing was probably not busy, so he called immediately.

Cheng Wang looked at the message "The call has been interrupted by another application" on the screen, dumbfounded, "Brother?"

Cheng Jing turned on the mechanism. **Type: "He may have to live at home for a while. I heard that his new lover wants to get married. He may come home to avoid her."

It's hard for Cheng Wang to describe his mood, like being soaked in cold water and being punched in the chest by someone, making him so stuffy that he can't breathe.

He froze on the phone for a few seconds before he said bluntly, "Really."

"School starts in one month, do you want to stay at home?" Cheng Jing said irritably, "I'm going to stay in a hotel for a few days, if you don't want to stay at home, come and find me."

Cheng Wang picked at the pillowcase, and was stunned for a while, "Forget it... What's the matter if you don't live at home and go to a hotel..."

But he still couldn't persuade Cheng Jing.

Cheng Jing asked a few more words before hanging up the phone.

The phone returned to the interrupted call with Qiao Beixin, and Cheng Wang patted his forehead and replied to him.

-Smashing a big orange: Just now my elder brother's phone call came in.

-Smashing a big orange: It's too late, too late, I don't want to disturb you, Xiao Qiao go to bed early, good night!

He set his phone to Do Not Disturb in advance, lay on his back on the bed, and kept thinking about what Cheng Jing said just now.

Cheng Wanyu, their father, seems to be getting married again.

Cheng Wanyu was also busy at work, and the father and son didn't have much time to see each other during the day, but Cheng Wang still felt uncomfortable.

He sometimes goes to the library to study, and more often just wanders around aimlessly.

Although there is still some time before the start of school, the learning atmosphere in their class is quite strong. Most of the students in the class are making up their homework for the holidays or reviewing their homework. No one dares to take the next high school life lightly.

Cheng Wang was embarrassed to disturb others, so he could only wander around by himself.

On this day, Qiao Beixin's classmate in Class [-] sent him a message, saying that when he was watching a movie with his girlfriend, he saw Cheng Wang was there, and after saying hello, he found that Cheng Wang was watching the movie by himself.

Qiao Beixin looked at the message "Watching a movie alone, how boring must this be?" in the dialog box, and frowned.

That night, Cheng Wang received a PDF from Qiao Beixin.

-Joe: Have you thought about what university to take?check it out.

Cheng Wang had some ideas, but he always felt that it was still early, and he hadn't thought too deeply about this issue.

Qiao Beixin replied: There are still a few files, but they are too large to send through WeChat.Or you come to my house, I also want to find someone to discuss.

Cheng Wangzheng desperately needed to find a legitimate reason for himself to go out "loitering", so he immediately agreed.

The weather was fine that day, Cheng Wang was walking on the road, and he didn't forget to remind Qiao Beixin to buy milk tea.

He is often teased by Cheng Jing, saying that girls of the same age do not like drinking milk tea as much as he does. Not only that, the taste is also weird, but they don't like adding sugar.

Qiao Beixin has a good memory, and is very good at drawing inferences, "Soy milk does not add sugar, so does milk tea also have no sugar?"

Cheng Wang really wanted to give him a thumbs up, "Yes! You are so smart!"

Cheng Wang bought two boxes of fast food downstairs and carried them upstairs.After eating and drinking, Cheng Wang bit the milk tea straw and said with emotion: "Is there anything better than having a glass of ice-cold happy water in summer? Not anymore."

After chatting for a while, the two finally got down to business.

Qiao Beixin turned on the computer and called up the PDF, and took notes for the two of them while going through school.

Cheng Wang circled a few schools, and went online to look for the scores over the years.

Qiao Beixin said, "According to your previous results, these schools are all about the same."

He pointed to the Finance Department of University Y, "Except for this. If you want to apply for the Finance Department of University Y, you'd better work harder."

Qiao Beixin spoke in a reserved manner.

The Finance Department of University Y is the best in the country, and the admission score in Qinshi is almost the same as that in Qingbei.

Cheng Wang was lying on the desk, his cheeks were squeezed together, and he muttered, "It's so difficult, I think my grades have reached the bottleneck."

Qiao Bei thought for a while and said, "I think it might be better for you to start with English listening, after all..."

Cheng Wang made a "pause" gesture, "Please stop the sarcastic words towards me and other mortals."

Having said that, Cheng Wang obediently put on the earphones, and really began to listen to English.

He knew that his English was weak, but he couldn't calm down to review. After a long time, he even developed a habit of avoiding it.

I'm about to be in my third year of high school, and I really can't do this anymore.Cheng Wang rubbed his face and began to read the questions carefully.

Qiao Beixin's bedroom does not have air conditioning.

His physique is somewhat miraculous, he is not afraid of the cold in winter, and he is not afraid of heat in summer.

As for Liang Yilan, she was already weak and couldn't stand the cold.

Neither mother nor child needs a fan.

It's just that this is a pain for Cheng Wang, who is extremely afraid of heat.

Just after listening to a short listening section, Cheng Wang said with a bitter face, "Little Qiao, aren't you hot?"

"I'm usually not afraid of heat, so..." Qiao Beixin got up and said with a little regret, "I'll push the fan in. The fan is in the living room. Wait for me."

The fan has not been used for a long time.Liang Yilan put a cover on it, but the fan body was still covered with dust inevitably.

Qiao Beixin went to wash a rag, squatted on the ground and wiped it carefully, and then pushed it into the bedroom.

English listening seems to be a huge sleeping pill for Cheng Wang. Every time he puts on the earphones, Cheng Wang's eyelids soon start to fight.

He came late at noon, chatted with Qiao Beixin after dinner, and it was almost four o'clock when he started listening.

Four o'clock is not the time for a nap. Although Cheng Wang is sleepy, he still insists on propping up his chin.

But the English letters on the test paper in front of him became more and more blurred, Cheng Wang blinked hard, trying to see each letter clearly.

But the more he tried to see clearly, the more blurred he felt.

He leaned closer to the test paper, and finally couldn't hold back, and fell onto the desk.
