He said he would come next spring

"Xiao Shen, are you leaving?" Aunt Liu next door watched Shen Yilai roll out suitcases from the house one after another, and rushed out with the moving company downstairs holding the oil spoon.

"Yes, otherwise the landlord will kick me out."

He remembered the old aunt who had arguing with him about the rent in the corridor yesterday.

The child ran out: "Brother, why don't you pay back the money you owe?"

"Go away, kid."

"Aren't you a child?"

The new home was a dowry gift left to Shen Yilai by the old couple when they were still alive, and it was two or three blocks away.

There are no high-end places around, but there are quite a few bars.

Pushing open the door of the bar, colorful laser balls hang above the dance floor, and the dancing young people are like raging waves, using their own desires and flames to ignite this carnival wilderness.

Only here, in the paralysis of alcohol and the exchange of damp breaths, can one temporarily forget the pain.

Shen Yilai sat at the bar and asked the bartender for a cup of Long Island iced tea.

The bartender smiled: "Sir, it's very strong."

Shen Yilai said clearly: "It's okay, I drink often."

Long Island Iced Tea, well-deserved of its reputation, is really strong, that's because Shen Yilai only ordered this glass of wine that night, and then fell unconscious amidst the commotion.

The bartender shook his arms and said, "Sir, we're closing."

He walked out of the bar staggeringly, and threw up while hugging the lamppost.

For a moment, Shen Yilai felt that he was a speck of dust. The wind in this world was so strong that it made him walk around, just looking for a place to live.

He took out his phone and searched for Li Chunnian's WeChat account. He had long forgotten to put her on top.

back:

"I'm not crazy."

Shen Yilai didn't want to be nosy at first, but those guys' yelling and a crying sound hit Shen Yilai's restless nerves.

Yang Nian said that he was huddled in the pile of cardboard boxes in the corner of the alley, his clothes were opened.Shen Yilai saw that there was a tattoo on his lower abdomen, it was a dragonfly, it was outlined with a few monotonous lines, but it was lifelike, and its two wings were as thin as a cicada's wings.It was as if Yang Nian said that with a few twists, the dragonfly would be broken into pieces and fall into the pile of paper.

After a while, Yang Nian said he didn't move anymore, the light from the flashlights of the men's mobile phones made Yang Nian's skin whiter.Thin arms hang limply by the sides of the body.

Shen Yilai stared at his eyes - these eyes were very unusual.Brown pupils, double eyelids swept straight into the end of the eyes, charming and pure, like a fish swimming in the deep sea.

Those eyes were lifeless, not even a tinge of fear, or—a sliver of enjoyment.

Even though Shen Yilai was given ten cups of Long Island iced tea, he knew that they were doing something illegal.

Jiu Zhuang was cowardly, so Shen Yilai punched the man who knocked down the man without pants first.

"Fuck your mother, who the hell beat me?" The man said angrily while pulling up his pants.

"I."

Then, before the other brothers could make a move, Shen Yilai punched him again, to delay the time.

He pulled Yang Nian and ran away.

But Yang Nian said he was blind and couldn't see Shen Yilai's righteous face.

But he could feel that Shen Yilai's palm was hot.

"It doesn't matter if you can't see it, it's too dangerous for you to live in my house first." This was Shen Yilai's answer after a moment of astonishment.

Yang Nian said that he could tell that Shen Yilai was drunk, and he didn't know if it was a child's nonsense.

"Thanks, can I sleep with you?"

"can."
