Although the house is not big, it is very clean and tidy. If you look carefully, you can see the hard work of the hostess. Although the sparrow is small, it is a home full of warmth.

Yu Shuang was busy in the kitchen, when she heard the sound of the door opening, she wiped her hands quickly and walked out.

Then she saw two young men standing at the door. Her son was holding a bouquet of pleasing flowers in his arms, and the other was holding a few things in his hand. They looked at her in unison.

Yu Shuang was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "This is your classmate, right? You said this... Come here, why do you bring so many things, Auntie is really embarrassed."

Zhuo Xi changed her shoes, came over and handed the flowers to her, "Mom, keep it, otherwise Xi Luan will feel embarrassed."

"...Okay." The flowers in her arms had a light fragrance, and they seemed to make her feel good. After all, Yu Shuang was happy. She looked at the flowers, and then at the gifts Xi Luan brought, " It’s just too expensive, I’m still a student...these things cost a lot of money, right?”

Xi Luan: "No, not much money."

Her son, a classmate, looks so good, Yu Shuang couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and sighed that the child is really good-looking now.

She put the flowers next to the TV cabinet, and was about to pour water, but Zhuoxi stopped her, and the young man said to her: "Let me do it."

"Okay, that's fine, treat your classmates well, I'll go to the kitchen to see if the fish soup is ready." Yu Shuang instructed.

"understood."

After pouring a glass of warm water, Zhuo Xi led Xi Luan to sit down on his sofa and handed him the water.

It came in a rather unpretentious clear glass, but was washed clean.Xi Luan lowered his eyes and took a few sips.

They came just in time, and Yu Shuang's dishes were ready right away, and within a few minutes of sitting down, she called the two of them to eat.

At the dinner table, she served Xi Luan a bowl of fish soup with a smile on her face, "Xiao Luan, this fish is very fresh, eat more."

Zhuoxi on the side heard it and wanted to laugh a little.

Xiao Luan?This name is really a bit novel.

The man who was called so calmly did not express anything. He politely said thank you when he took the fish soup, and then turned his head to look at the young man with his head down and unable to see clearly.

Afraid that she would not be able to hold back her laughter, Zhuo Xi buried her head for a while, and when she raised her head, she met the man's deep eyes.

"Cough... Mom, hurry up and eat, don't worry about it."

Yu Shuang smiled: "You also have a taste of how the table of dishes made by Mom tastes. It's been a long time since you have eaten the meals I cooked with your own hands, right?"

Zhuoxi nodded.

"delicious."

"After you finish the exam, you won't need to stay in the dormitory, and you can go home and eat the meals your mother cooks every day."

"Well, the exam will be next week." Zhuo Xi replied.

Yu Shuang looked at Xi Luan: "Xiao Luan looks like a child who is very good at studying, and his grades should be very good."

Xi Luan: "It's okay."

Zhuo Xi: "He is the student council president of University A."

"Is that so?" Yu Shuang was surprised, and then looked and looked between the two, as if she didn't understand how her son knew each other.

Zhuoxi told her about her recent improvement in her academic performance, as well as about the autumn camp.

"I want to get into the top fifteen," he said.

After being surprised, Yu Shuang seemed to have accepted her son's self-motivation, and said with a smile: "Actually, not long ago, Professor Zhou also called me and told me about your recent changes. If this is the case, then I believe you Certainly possible."

The young man lowered his eyes in embarrassment.

"Ah."

After eating, Zhuo Xi volunteered to wash the dishes, but was stopped by Yu Shuang.She asked him to stay in the living room with Xi Luan, while she cleaned up in the kitchen.

"It's so boring to sit outside alone. You can go and accompany me. Otherwise, if you wash the dishes here and let me go outside to stay with your classmates, Mom will be embarrassed." She shook her head.

Zhuoxi thought about it for a while, so she didn't insist.

"These are all the fresh fruits I picked at the vegetable market today, eat them." Yu Shuang brought a plate of washed fruits to the two of them, and then went into the kitchen.

Zhuo Xi said to Xi Luan: "She seems to like you very much."

Xi Luan: "Yes."

"Do you want to watch TV?" Zhuo Xi asked him, "I don't seem to have much fun at home."

"If you're bored, come and do the questions." Xi Luan said calmly, took out his phone and started looking for the questions.

Zhuo Xi: "..." Well, who made his lover a real schoolmaster in this life.

And he always felt that Xi Luan really wanted him to enter the top fifteen.

When Yu Shuang came out of the kitchen, she saw the two of them studying and studying next to each other. Seeing this, she couldn't help but smiled in relief.

"Xiao Yuan, I'm going to throw out the trash." She said.

Zhuoxi looked up, "Okay."

With the sound of the door opening and closing, the whole room suddenly fell silent.

Zhuo Xi's mind drifted away from his study, and Xi Luan also noticed his distraction, raised his eyes, and looked at him quietly.

"how."

"Cough, it's nothing." He reached for water, "I'm a little thirsty."

Xi Luan looked at him, put down his phone, and changed his legs.

Zhuoxi caught a glimpse of it from the corner of his eye, and asked him: "...Is this place a bit narrow for you? I don't think you are sitting very comfortably."

Those long legs looked crowded.

Xi Luan: "No."

"As you can see, my family's condition is not very good." Zhuoxi said.

"No." The man said lightly, "It's very warm."

Hearing this, Zhuoxi's eyes filled with a smile.

"Really."

"Ah."

"If you like this place... you can come to eat often in the future." Zhuoxi said generously, "Winter vacation is coming soon."

Xi Luan: "It depends."

"Well, if you want to come, just tell me."

The air suddenly seemed to become a little hot, Zhuo Xi loosened the collar of his clothes.

He noticed his scarf not far from Xi Luan's side, blinked and said, "Do you like this scarf, or I'll give it to you."

The man turned his head and his eyes fell on the scarf.

After a few seconds, he hummed in a low voice.

"My mother bought this scarf, and I bought three of one style and different colors." Zhuoxi said.

Yu Shuang is a very caring mother. She always prepares a lot of things for her son. When buying clothes and scarves, she will prepare more each time she is afraid that they will not be enough.

Although the economy is not rich, she is always so careless when spending money for her son, which is completely different from herself.

She tried her best to give Shi Xingyuan everything she could.

This is the heart of a mother.

Zhuo Xi suddenly remembered that Xi Luan's mother had already passed away.

When he talked about this topic, maybe the man didn't feel good.

So he changed the subject and said, "Where did you spend your winter vacation?"

Xi Luan: "At home."

"……you alone?"

"Yeah." The man said, "My dad won't come back for Chinese New Year."

"Okay." After a pause, Zhuo Xi said, "Where are your grandparents?"

"Abroad."

"That's it." Zhuo Xi thought for a while, "How about...you come to celebrate the New Year with me? If you don't mind."

Xi Luan looked at him for a while, then replied, "It depends."

Depending on the situation again, Zhuo Xi wanted to reach out and pinch the other person's face, telling him not to be so reserved, just say what you desire in your heart.

But it's not that he doesn't understand, for Xi Luan, his character is like this, and this is an unchangeable fact.

What else can I do, hey...he can only pamper her.

013: Tsk tsk, who spoils whom?

"...Why hasn't my mother come back yet." After a while, Zhuo Xi sensed something was wrong, "Does it take so long to throw out the trash?"

He glanced at the clock on the wall, it had been a long time.

Xi Luan looked at him, and they both saw the same thought in each other's eyes.

——There is indeed a problem, if you just throw out the trash, it shouldn't take so long.

Could it be that something happened?It's been almost 10 minutes.

"013, help me find the surveillance camera and see where she is." Zhuoxi finished talking to the system, took the key and walked to the door, "I'll go find her."

Xi Luan: "I'll go too."

"...Okay." Zhuoxi's face was a little dignified, and there was a lot of worry in it.

He was a little scared, if something happened to Yu Shuang... If he had known, he wouldn't have let her out to throw out the trash at night, and he would have gone by himself.

Seeing that his mood was a little unstable, Xi Luan put the coat he had brought on when he left and put it on him, "You forgot to wear it."

Zhuoxi quickly put on his clothes and looked for a woman along the road.

The garbage spot is not far away, and it only takes six or seven minutes to walk back and forth. When he came to the garbage spot, he didn't find Yu Shuang's shadow.

Xi Luan: "Let's split up and search nearby."

Zhuoxi: "Wait."

He squinted and saw something on the ground ahead of him.

"This is the decoration on her keychain." He picked up the little tassel and looked around.

At this moment, 013 said: "Host, I found it, just turn left in front..."

"Let's go over there," said the young man.

"..." Xi Luan looked at him, and didn't ask him how he knew where the exact location was, but just followed him to find it.

Beside the dark wall, a man with a scruffy face looked at the woman in front of him with gloom, and said in a deep voice:

"You stinky bitch, do you know how your son of a bitch hurt me last time? His mother beat me up, and let me get into a trap...I was imprisoned for more than 50 days!"

Yu Shuang clenched the corner of her clothes tightly, not quite believing it: "...How is it possible? You have always bullied him..."

Shi Deze: "You still don't believe it?? Mad, everyone... only believes in that brat, I don't care, you are that damn brat's mother, he made me like this, you have to replace him Pay for compensation!"

"In the final analysis, you are just asking for money again..." Yu Shuang twitched the corners of her mouth, her smile was ironic and helpless, she shook her head and said, "I don't have any money, I've used it all up."

"I'll believe you?" Shi Deze spat on the ground and scolded, "Which time you didn't say that, you just don't want to give me money!"

"We've been divorced a long time ago, why should I give you money?" The woman said bitterly, "Who has made money to support the family all these years? How much money have you bet on? As long as you have a little conscience, you won't come to our orphans widowed mother."

"Heh, the divorce is obviously because you insist on leaving, and I never promised!" Shi Deze said angrily, "It's not that you insist on divorce, which makes people around you look down on me! There are so many nonsense, stop talking, give me a divorce first." I transfer [-]!"

"I said... I don't have any money." Yu Shuang didn't want to talk to him anymore, and said coldly, "If you do this again, I will call the police."

38

38

When she heard that she was going to call the police, Shi Deze smiled.

"Do you think I will give you a chance to repay you?" He approached Yu Shuang, grabbed the woman's hand when she wanted to avoid it, and said with a stern face: "If you are sensible, give me the money quickly, or I will give you money every day." come to you."

"How on earth do you want to let me go?" Yu Shuang said with red eyes, "The thing I regret most in my life is that I chose someone like you..."

"Heh, marry a chicken as a chicken and marry a dog as a dog. You will never want to break away from me in this life, and don't think that you can get rid of it by moving. I have better news than you." Shi Deze threatened, "Hurry up, you Where is the phone? Take it out and transfer the money to me!"

Yu Shuang had no choice but to take out her phone with trembling hands.

"...I only have a few thousand yuan left in my account, you have to let me keep it to live..."

Shi Deze said impatiently, "Don't you understand? Tell me as much as you want! Otherwise, you will suffer..."

He raised his hand, and just as he was about to wave his palm to the woman's face, he was blocked by a hand that appeared out of nowhere.

He turned his head to look, and when he saw someone coming, his first reaction was to shrink back subconsciously.But he soon realized that his performance was a bit embarrassing, and quickly bluffed:

"...Hehe, Yu Shuang, your good son is here too. Just in time, brat, you must have a lot of money... Last time you hurt me like that, don't just let it go this time. "

"Oh, do you still remember last time?" Zhuo Xi shook off his hand, and sneered as if he touched something dirty. "Is the detention center not enough for you? Do you want to go to jail this time?"

"Xiao Yuan..." Seeing his appearance, Yu Shuang was a little lost.

Zhuoxi pulled him behind her, "Mom, don't be afraid, I'm here."

Yu Shuang saw Xi Luan at the side again, and said apologetically, "...Xiao Luan is here too, I'm really sorry for making you face this kind of situation..."

Xi Luan: "It's fine."

"Who is this?" Seeing him, Shi Deze asked strangely.

"You don't deserve to know." Zhuo Xi replied unceremoniously, and took two steps towards him with a cold expression.

"...What are you going to do?" Shi Deze wanted to control his shrinking instinct, but he didn't know why, probably because of the shadow left by his body when he was beaten up by the young man last time, which caused him to always frown when he faced the young man. It's subconsciously wanting to dodge.

He always felt that the next second, this kid would show that meaningful smile again, and then raise his hand at him...

I don't know why, this kid doesn't hurt when he hits someone, but every time he hits him, it hurts him to death. The key is... others can't detect it.

How can this be reasonable? Shi Deze was very irritable and faintly afraid, so he could only put on airs: "If you dare to do anything to your father, I will sue you!"

Zhuoxi: "I don't have an old man like you, you deserve it too?"

Shi Deze: "I'm grass &*#@..."

"If your mouth doesn't want it anymore, just keep swearing at you." The young man stared at him and said word by word.

"..." Looking into his eyes, Shi Deze felt a certain crisis, he suddenly felt that what this kid said might be really serious.

He was not joking, but really warned him.

He was about to speak when the young man suddenly approached his ear and whispered: "I know you just came out recently, and I asked an acquaintance to find you a job as a warehouse manager in xx factory. If you still want to have this For work... I advise you not to come to us again."

Shi Deze was taken aback, "How do you know?"

Zhuoxi just looked at him quietly, without answering.

At this moment, Deze thought a lot, and finally he came to the conclusion that this kid may have found some powerful connections in private, so he became not afraid of him at all, and even found out about his recent movements.

In fact, Zhuoxi asked these questions from 013, and they were just small things, so 013 was very quick to help.

This does not violate the system regulations, and 013 himself really hates this scumbag.

He asked suspiciously, "You...have you fallen in love with some great person in the Tao?"

"That's beyond what you can know." The young man said disdainfully.

"In short, if you come to harass me and my mother again in the future, be careful whether your arms and legs can go back healthy." He said harshly, "And next time...it won't just be as simple as going to the detention center."

After so many years in the outside world, Shi Deze has indeed developed a suspicious temperament. Being threatened by the young man like this, he feels that there is something wrong behind him.

He still doesn't want to lose his only job at present. If he really loses his job, he will have no security at all, and even his life will be a problem, let alone gambling.

"You... you brat, you're really talented." He said fiercely, his eyes were like snakes and scorpions, staring at the young man in front of him, "Okay... I'll let you off for a while today, but next time, I won't Be polite to you..."

He spat, glanced at Yu Shuang and Xi Luan behind him, raised his head, turned and left with a gloomy expression.

Yu Shuang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But then, she began to worry again.

She looked at the young man with a sad expression.

"Xiaoyuan, you..." Did you really know some random person?That kind of person is not easy to get along with. In her opinion, once one enters that kind of circle, there is no way to get out of it. "What did you say in his ear just now?"

Zhuo Xi shook her head at her, "I was just bluffing him. For a person like him, this is the only way to scare him."

Yu Shuang: "Is that so... That's good." She finally felt relieved, and she also felt that her son didn't look like he was really mixing with that kind of person. He brought him back today Everything in the house looked normal.

But she remembered something else.

"By the way, were you approached by him before...why didn't you tell mom?"

"He didn't get a bargain last time." Zhuo Xi said, "Mom... I've grown up, and he's too old to beat me."

Yu Shuang thought about it too, if Shi Deze wanted to hurt his son, it would be too much for him and not enough for him.

Her Xiaoyuan has now grown into an adult who can take charge of her own affairs and will not be bullied at will.

Thinking of this, she felt better. She looked at Xi Luan at the side, "It's so cold, you all came out to look for me. The cold wind has been blowing for so long, so hurry home..."

"Okay." Zhuo Xi walked to her side, and looked at the man beside her.

"Let's go home."

Although the word "home" seems plain, it can give people the power to fight against the world.

Even in the face of the storm, he is still firm and brave.

***

"Hurry up and drink some hot water." Yu Shuang poured warm tea for the two young people. The temperature was lower at night, fearing that they would catch a cold.It seemed to her that even two were not invulnerable.

Zhuoxi: "Mom, don't be too busy, let's rest."

Yu Shuang responded with a smile: "Hey...OK."

She sat down on the sofa next to her, looking a little worried.

Understanding what she was worried about, Zhuo Xi said to her: "He probably won't come again. However, if he comes again, remember to call me as soon as possible."

Facing Zhuoxi's gaze, Yu Shuang was rarely embarrassed.She knew what he meant, don't bear these things alone in the future, even though the child didn't say it clearly.

He clearly disapproved of her habit of dealing with everything alone.

She had no choice but to smile, and agreed: "Okay, Mom understands. By the way, where does Xiao Luan's family live... is it far away?"

After hearing Xi Luan's answer that the journey would take more than an hour, she was a little surprised, and then said with a smile: "It's already nine o'clock, and it's not safe to drive at night, or you can stay and sleep overnight."

The young man looked at the man and said nothing.

Yu Shuang continued: "We have everything at home. If you are afraid of lack of pajamas, you don't have to worry about it. I remember that there is a set in the closet that Xiaoyuan made bigger before, which is just right for you to wear..."

She looks enthusiastic.

"It's just that the bed in Xiaoyuan's room may be a bit small for the two of you... Maybe it will be a bit crowded. If you don't mind, Auntie won't force you to stay."

Seeing this, Zhuo Xi couldn't help sighing in his heart: What a natural and good assist.

Xi Luan was silent for a while, and agreed.

He didn't know how to reject such a passionate woman. The smile on her face gave people a warm feeling, and her eyes were soft.

Although it was the first time they met, he felt a certain warmth from this mother that he hadn't seen for a long time.

Seeing that he agreed, Yu Shuang was very happy with the naked eye, and hurried to prepare clean toiletries and clothes for him, and then asked the two young people, "Which one of you wants to take a bath first?"

Zhuo Xi and Xi Luan looked at each other and said, "I'll go first."

Xi Luan: "Yes."

Yu Shuang: "Then Xiao Yuan, go quickly, remember to use less water, don't use up all the hot water."

Zhuo Xi raised her eyebrows, "Mom, why do I feel that you don't like me that much after Xi Luan came here?"

Yu Shuang scolded him lightly: "You child, why are you still jealous, go and wash yourself."

Zhuo Xi smiled subtly, turned around and went to the bathroom.

Yu Shuang found out the oversized pajamas and the clean underwear her son hadn't worn, and handed them to Xi Luan with a smile.

"Talk to Auntie if you have anything."

Xi Luan responded, and as soon as he took it, a thin piece floated from the pile of clothes to the ground.

"Hey." The woman looked down, bent down to pick up the photo, showing nostalgia, "I said why I couldn't find it, it turned out to be here..."

Seeing Xi Luan looking at the photo in her hand, she smiled slightly, turned the photo to him, and sighed: "This is an old photo from many years ago, and it was taken when Xiaoyuan was 13 years old."

Xi Luan looked at the young boy in the photo who was next to the woman and looking towards the camera with a nervous expression.

It is very different from now, the boy in the photo looks slender and soft, his facial features are very similar to Yu Shuang's delicate, not as sharp as now.

This...is clearly a

The man's eyes were puzzled for the first time, and he raised his eyes with a questioning face.

"he……"

Yu Shuang sighed softly, stroking the boy's face in the photo with his fingers.

"That's right." She said in a low voice, "...Obuchi didn't differentiate for the first time"

"I see." Xi Luan pondered.

Yu Shuang made a "shh" gesture to him, smiled and winked at him.

"This is a secret between you and Auntie, don't mention it to Xiaoyuan."

Xi Luan: "...OK."
