little beast

Sheng Shuangxu quickly understood what Liang Shao meant, and he didn't want to owe Liang Shao any favors, so he said, "How dare I bother you? It doesn't matter, I can still handle work matters by myself."

"It won't bother me," Liang Shao ruffles his messy and curly hair irritably, exposing his forehead that has been covered by hair all year round, "It's my idea to help you, I don't want you to ask me for help, you don't There is a psychological burden."

"I have a friend whose tutoring agency is recruiting teachers. I can introduce you to it—but the agency only caters to primary school students. I'm afraid they can no longer teach high school Chinese."

Sheng Shuangxu had already made up his mind that he would never be able to engage in professional-related work in his life. Even though he could not accept Liang Shao's kindness, he was still very excited about this job.

Teaching was his only specialty, and he wanted to teach, and he wanted to get back in the classroom, even if only as an after-school tutor.

Sheng Shuangxu's nose was sore, he lowered his head subconsciously, trying to hide the red eye sockets at the same time.

Even though he was so eager for this job, he didn't dare to agree easily. He hadn't figured out how to make up for the mistake he made last time, and he didn't want to owe Liang Shao any more.

Liang Shao saw the hesitation in his heart and said, "If you really feel embarrassed, give me money."

"Sheng Shuangxu, you also know that I'm short of money, the agency fee should be higher, and I won't refuse anyone."

Sheng Shuangxu had no reason to refuse.

Even so, he still owed Liang Shao a lot of favors - in terms of his current reputation, the agency would indeed take a big risk to use him.

Liang Shao continued: "Standing here is not an option. Why don't you go to my house and talk? You can also go to your residence."

Sheng Shuangxu remembered the small hotel where he lived, and hurriedly said: "Then let's go to your house——wait, don't you have something to do today? We can make an appointment next time and talk about it."

"I have nothing to do," Liang Shao signaled Sheng Shuangxu to go back, "I had urgent work yesterday, and I stayed at the boss's house tonight, so I'm going home this morning."

After all, Liang Shao is Maria's personal doctor, so it is inevitable that his work is related, and when he mentions her, he just lightly exposes it indifferently. When Sheng Shuangxu heard him mention Maria, his heart still trembled.

He didn't want to hear any news about Maria's mother and child.

Sheng Shuangxu quickly suppressed the discomfort in his heart, and asked as he walked, "Where is your home?"

With his back turned to him, Liang Shao said calmly, "It's very close to here."

"Just one stop on the subway."

The community where Liang Shao's house is located is very old, so old that the original paint color of the walls of the unit buildings can no longer be seen clearly, and even the limestone road between the buildings is full of gullies, with potholes at every step.

Sheng Shuangxu looked at the low second-floor clinic in front of him, hesitating slightly.

Liang Shao took out a bunch of keys from his pocket, opened the door of the clinic, and looked back at him: "Come in."

Sheng Shuangxu followed behind Liang Shao, and carefully looked at the furnishings in the room—the interior space of the clinic was not large, and it was used to place the medicine cabinet. There was a worn-out desk in front of the medicine cabinet, which was probably Liang The place where fever usually sits.

Going further inside is the stairs leading to the second floor. There is a room behind the stairs. Liang Shao planted some flowers in the open space near the stairs. The heating in the room is very warm. Even in the middle of winter, these potted flowers are still blooming. .

Before they had time to speak, the sound of footsteps came from the ceiling. Sheng Shuangxu looked up subconsciously, and the sound fell on the wooden stairs, which made the steps creak, causing the whole staircase to tremble. stand up.

Liang Shao wanted to say something at first, but swallowed it irritably, and stared in the direction of the voice.

A young boy jumped up and down the stairs and said as he ran, "Doctor! You're back!"

The boy didn't notice Sheng Shuangxu until he jumped down from the stairs. He ran towards Liang Shao's footsteps and turned his head to get close to Sheng Shuangxu.

The boy was very beautiful, he was not tall, but his facial features were quite delicate, and there was a little baby fat on his fair and tender cheeks. When Sheng Shuangxu met his gaze, he felt a chill down his spine.

The kid seemed to be his former student.Sheng Shuangxu couldn't help thinking of Shaoqing. In recent years, he would avoid actively recalling the past. When he saw the boy's face, he was still in a trance for a moment, but soon he came back to his senses—— Shaoqing is already dead, the dead cannot be brought back to life, this child is just similar in appearance, he is not Shaoqing.

The boy rolled his eyes, looked at Sheng Shuangxu with burning eyes, and said, "Ah, are you the doctor's patient?"

Sheng Shuangxu quickly glanced at Liang Shao, but Liang Shao didn't mean to speak, and just stared at the boy gloomyly. Sheng Shuangxu couldn't handle such a person, and explained: "I, I am Liang Shao friend."

The boy wanted to hold Sheng Shuangxu's hand, so he stretched out his fingers and hooked Sheng Shuangxu's thumb. His fingertips were very soft, and they rubbed against Sheng Shuangxu's palm lightly, causing Sheng Shuangxu to be inexplicably uncomfortable. comfortable.

Sheng Shuangxu took the boy's hand back, squeezed it hard, then retracted his fingers as if fleeing, and quickly shook off the sticky feeling.

The boy chuckled, and wanted to hug Sheng Shuangxu's arm again: "Hello, my name is Xiaolu."

Liang Shao grabbed Xiaolu's collar suddenly, and dragged him away from Sheng Shuangxu. The difference in size between the two was too great. Liang Shao grabbed Xiaolu like a chicken, and easily carried him to the seat next to him. On the chair, press him to sit down.

Liang Shao ignored Xiaolu the whole time, turned to Sheng Shuangxu and said, "Sheng Shuangxu, let's go upstairs and continue talking."

"Shuangxu?" Fawn's black and white eyes stared intently at Sheng Shuangxu, "Are you born in autumn? Me too."

The boy in front of him was so enthusiastic that Sheng Shuangxu didn't know how to fight back at all. Liang Shao slightly pressed Xiaolu's shoulder and said, "You are downstairs guarding the door, and I will go up to have a chat with the guests."

Even though Xiaolu looked unwilling, he still listened to Liang Shao's words, and sat obediently where he was, with his eyes still glued to Sheng Shuangxu.

Liang Shao was not a talkative person in the first place, after Xiao Lu made such a fuss, he stopped talking now.When Sheng Shuangxu followed Liang Shao up the stairs, he felt that the deer was staring at two holes in his back. He always felt that there was something wrong with this child, so he asked as he walked, "Is this child your relative?"

"No," Liang Shao denied, "He...he is my patient, and he lives here temporarily."

patient?Will the patient still live in the doctor's house?Sheng Shuangxu didn't understand the relationship between them, so he only mentioned it casually when chatting, and he didn't like to ask more.

Liang Shao led Sheng Shuangxu to the second floor. Compared with the first floor, the second floor is narrower. Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs. The space of less than [-] square meters has two rooms and one living room.

The entrance of the stairs leads directly to a fairly small living room. After Sheng Shuangxu sat down on the sofa, Liang Shao moved a bench and sat opposite him. His legs were too long and the bench was too short, making his movements extraordinarily comical and clumsy.

The living room was too narrow, Sheng Shuangxu even felt that with Liang Shao's height, he couldn't even stretch his legs when he sat down.

Liang Shao said, "Do you have a place to live now?"

Sheng Shuangxu fell silent.

Looking at his expression, Liang Shao also knew that he had no fixed place to live, so he said, "Before you find a house, stay with me first."

Everything seemed to be going too smoothly. Liang Shao solved most of his current problems for him. The man-made smoothness caused Sheng Shuangxu to feel a bit erratic. He didn't expect Liang Shao to be such a kind person. Obviously they haven't had a close relationship since high school, Liang Shao can still help Sheng Shuangxu regardless of previous suspicions on the premise of not hurting Sheng Shuangxu's self-esteem.

Sheng Shuangxu was so grateful that he didn't know what to say, he couldn't stop saying "thank you".

"I will charge you the monthly rent." Liang Shao interrupted Sheng Shuangxu's thanks, stared at his expression calmly, and said, "Sheng Shuangxu, we are just doing normal transactions now, you don't need to thank me."

"As long as the money is right, I can do anything for you."
