desolate

In front of Zhou Ze and Wen Jialang, Pei also made a phone call with Ju Haonan. During the phone call, he briefly explained the solution. There was no negotiation process, and both parties agreed quickly.

When I walked out of the restaurant, the sky at eight o'clock in the evening was dark blue, with a light yellow moon hanging, and the red and white hotel signboard illuminated people's faces red.

As soon as they went out, they ran into Ju Haonan, Li Hefei and others who were blocking the outside.

There was a purple bruise on Li Hefei's face. It seemed that Zhou Ze's hand was really serious, so much so that he looked at Zhou Ze now and wished he could eat him alive.

Pei Ye suddenly said: "Wait a minute, let him pay back the money and leave first."

He was referring to Wen Jialong.

"Huh? Brother Pei, I..."

Ju Haonan found the bracelet on Zhou Ze's wrist, and turned his eyes sullenly: "OK."

"I'm leaving now..." Wen Jialang wanted to say something, but Pei Ye, acting as if he was too lazy to listen to his nonsense, managed to shut him up.

"I paid you back the IOU. Next time, be more careful." Ju Haonan patted him on the shoulder, but kept his eyes on Zhou Ze.

Until Pei also blocked him tightly behind him.

Ju Haonan withdrew his gaze: "That kid has already been let go, is it his turn?"

Looking at the person standing in front of him, Zhou Ze suddenly reached out and grabbed his wrist. The moment the two touched, he could feel that Pei Ye seemed to stiffen.

"Can I go inside?" Zhou Ze walked out from behind Pei Ye and pointed to a not so bright alley not far away.

"Okay." Li Hefei replied impatiently.

After Zhou Ze and Li Hefei entered the alley one after the other, Pei followed closely behind and blocked the entrance of the alley calmly, blocking Ju Haonan and his younger brothers from the outside.

Ju Haonan turned his head: "Pei Ye, do you insist on taking care of this?"

Pei Ye was also leaning against the side of the alley, with one leg across the middle, resting straight on a big rock.

"Of course, sell me face."

"Is your face useful? He opened my head."

"Then try to move me."

Pei also stood at the entrance of the alley, refusing to budge.

"We have been brothers for so many years..."

"You still dare to mention brother?"

Pei Ye suddenly raised his eyelids and glanced at him, his mocking tone was harsh.

Ju Haonan was terrified by him, and quickly turned his head away.

"Okay, for your sake, forget it." Ju Haonan said, "But let him go around when he sees us in the future."

Zhou Ze's face flashed in Pei Ye's mind.

"Range."

Suddenly, a hand behind him gently patted his leg.

Pei Ye bounced up like an electric shock: "You..."

The face he had just thought about just now had an extra scar on the cheekbone.

"Let's go." Zhou Ze reminded.

Pei Ye looked behind him again, and Li Hefei also came out of the darkness with a very stinky expression.

However, Zhou Ze wanted to leave, and he didn't say anything to stop him. It seemed that the matter between the two of them had been settled by default.

Pei also took Zhou Ze and left under their watchful eyes.

His motorcycle was parked at the entrance of the restaurant, and the two got on the car. Pei also wore a helmet and looked at Zhou Ze's face in the rearview mirror: "Send you back to school?"

"Can I go to your house?" Zhou Ze suddenly looked at him.

——To be precise, he was staring at him in the rearview mirror.

Pei Ye froze, and then started the car. The roar of the engine covered everything.

The wind at night is starting to get cold, and it feels biting when it blows on people's skin.Zhou Ze grabbed the sides of the motorcycle, keeping a gap about two fingers wide from Pei Ye all the time.

Pei Ye could naturally feel the distance between the two.

Originally, he was happy to see such alienation, but at this time he hoped that the distance could be a little shorter.

"You grab my clothes, it's not safe." He turned his head slightly and said to Zhou Ze.

"what?"

The speed of the car was a bit fast, and the wind blew his voice into pieces, Zhou Ze couldn't hear a single word clearly.

Pei did not continue to shout at the top of his voice, and then grabbed Zhou Ze's wrist and placed it on his waist.

Until there was a faint pulling sensation on the hem of the clothes.

The car started to pick up speed slowly.

All the scenery is regressing, street lights, pedestrians, street trees, bushes, high-rise buildings, low bungalows...

At last they turned into a quiet lane.

"arrive."

Pei also skillfully stopped the car in front of a convenience store.

Zhou Ze let go of his clenched hands, and when he lowered his head, he saw that the piece of clothing he was holding had become crumpled.

Fortunately, Pei Ye didn't pay attention at all, and walked straight into the small supermarket: "I don't have anything to eat at home, I might be hungry at night, you get some snacks."

Zhou Ze rubbed his stomach, Li Hefei punched him mercilessly, and he was still very uncomfortable.

He still took some snacks such as biscuits and potato chips to satisfy his hunger.As soon as Pei Ye entered the store, he took a large bag of instant noodles that was doing a buy five get one free event. When the two gathered at the cashier, they took out their mobile phones at the same time.

Zhou Ze handed the phone forward: "Scan mine." Then he turned his head and said to Pei Ye, "You helped me, you should."

"……up to you."

Pei Ye walked out of the convenience store with his things, and Zhou Ze followed closely behind.

The light elongated the shadows of the two obliquely, and finally intertwined and converged into one point.

Looking at Pei Ye who was always dressed in black, dressed in a lifeless and old-fashioned way, Zhou Ze suddenly asked, "If it were you today, what would you do?"

Pei Ye threw a short cigarette butt on the ground: "What should I do?"

"I mean, if you were me..."

"If I were you, I wouldn't mess with Wen Jialang." Pei Ye interrupted, and there was some helplessness in his tone that he didn't realize.

Zhou Ze asked, "Why?"

After being stared at by these eyes for a long time, Pei also felt overwhelmed: "Read your book carefully, why are there so many?"

He suddenly increased his steps, as if he wanted to throw off Zhou Ze, but soon, he saw something.It stopped suddenly at the corner again.

Zhou Ze was a step too late, and only saw a small car driving out of the dilapidated neighborhood, with a Seoul license plate on it, and he could vaguely identify a man in the driver's seat.

And when the car drove away without looking back, Zhou Ze saw a familiar woman.

He felt that something was wrong with Pei Ye beside him.

"Su Ya!" Pei Ye stepped forward, "Where have you been?"

The woman in the long skirt turned around and found Pei Ye, she shook off his hand impatiently: "I'm going to have a meal, where am I going! I haven't said why you came back so early, you Aren't you going to work today?"

Pei also said, "I have something to do temporarily."

"Okay, you have something to do—I'm too lazy to bother with you." Su Ya wrapped herself in a thin sweater and walked up the stairs, "The little boy, are you a classmate?"

Pei also glanced at the shadow following him from the corner of his eye: "Yes."

Su Ya asked: "He lives with us today?"

"Ah."

"Go live in the mahjong room." Su Ya took out the key and opened the door, "Don't make so many cronies every day, that curly hair followed you all day long, is this a hotel with me?"

"I know, you should change your clothes, you smell of alcohol." Pei also sent her into the room.

boom--

The wooden door was slammed shut firmly.

Zhou Ze stood at the door, hesitating whether to change his shoes or not.

"Just step on it," Pei Ye said.

Just as Zhou Ze stepped in with two feet, he answered again: "Anyway, I'm mopping the floor."

This said.

Zhou Ze wondered if his feet could only step on his face.

Pei also took his clothes from the balcony and went into the bathroom. The sound of splashing water was separated from the outside world by a foggy window.

In the not-so-spacious one-bedroom, unlike the old one in the whole building, the furniture is fairly new, and the walls are also freshly painted snow-white. However, the room is a bit messy, and the people who live here probably don’t tidy it up every day. Habit.

"What are you looking at?" Pei Ye came out of the steamy bathroom with his upper body bare.

"It's nothing." Zhou Ze turned around, "You... put on some clothes."

Pei Ye rubbed his body indiscriminately, and asked amusedly, "Why, I'm so good that you feel inferior?"

Zhou Ze resisted the urge to roll his eyes: "I'm afraid you'll get sick again."

As if thinking of something, Pei Ye held back the words, put on the sweater, and glanced at him by the way: "Aren't you taking a bath?"

"……wash."

In fact, what he originally wanted to say was not to wash it, because he always felt that it would be troublesome to be in someone else's house, but the words changed again.

In the bathroom, not long after the water mist dissipated, the whole space was still warm. There were traces of being wiped by hands on the mirror, and the fragrance of the bath products was still strong. Zhou Ze stared at himself in the mirror, but for some reason Suddenly remembered the tattoo on Pei Ye's shoulder to arm.

……

In the living room, Pei also finished blowing his hair, and the pointer on the wall has already moved three squares.

There was still no movement in the bathroom, but judging from the figure on the glass, that person had been standing at the door for a long time.

Pei Ye also sensed that something was wrong, and worried that he was too suspicious...

boom--

Suddenly, there was the sound of glass breaking in the bathroom.

"Stop making noise!" Even Su Ya, who was sleeping in the bedroom, was frightened and yelled in a daze.

Pei also came to the door of the bathroom: "What's wrong with you?"

The people inside didn't answer him.

Pei Ye held the key in his hand and asked, "I'm coming in!"

Say silently for three seconds.

No one answered.

He turned the key and the door opened easily.

Zhou Ze was squatting on the ground and slowly picking up glass shards.

Pei also breathed a sigh of relief, and squatted down opposite him: "What's wrong with you?"

I saw the person in front of me slowly raised his head, his usually calm eyes, but now for some reason the entire eye sockets were flushed, as if he had cried.

... This is difficult.

This was the first time he encountered such a situation, and Pei didn't know what to do.

Moreover, Zhou Ze's situation is not much better than him.

"I'm sorry." He held the broken glass in one hand and subconsciously apologized.

"Don't pick it up!" Pei Ye subconsciously said heavily, grabbed his wrist to shake off the broken glass, and turned to look for the broom.

Zhou Ze stared at his palm, and kept thinking about what happened to him in his mind: the symptoms of chest tightness and cold sweat were so sudden that even holding a cup could make a mess.

Really...

He was a little scared.

Before this, although the doctor's evaluation of his psychological problems was mild, Zhou Ze knew in his heart how much of it was intentional, and he got such a result just to make Ma Wenjing feel that he was really sick. Yes, then you can hide in Pingjiang with a sigh of relief.

But what if you are really sick?

He hated those treatments and drugs, and even more hated the way others looked at him because of it.

Here, Pei also swept away the glass shards, and seeing that he was still squatting, he asked, "Are you uncomfortable?"

Unexpectedly, Zhou Ze pushed him away: "I'm fine."

Pei was also stunned.

Then he walked out of the bathroom.

"Close the door for you, cry if you want, I can't see."

After he finished speaking, he felt a little regretful, what is invisible, why can't he speak?

Soon, the sound of water was heard sparsely.

Pei Ye lowered his head and pulled at the hem of his clothes with one hand. There was a small bloodstain on the stretched white cloth.

tsk...

so troublesome.

He threw the broom aside, then pulled on his slippers, and went to the TV cabinet to search for the Band-Aid that he didn't know about the year of the monkey.
