life and joy

That year, He Huan had just entered the second year of junior high school, because his mother moved because of her new marriage and changed schools because of the move.I am busy getting to know new teachers and classmates all day long, and I am busy adapting to the new life, trying to organize the messy days into a meticulous state.

Soon, the Yao family's old house and the person with ice-eyed eyes were forgotten, and even if they remembered occasionally, their faces were already blurred.

When he returned to the old house in the second year, he had a faint expectation in his heart, looking forward to picking up that cold face again, but the reality gave him a hard blow, and the expectation was in vain.The person I was supposed to meet was on a business trip as far away as Europe.

He Huan thought that he, as the second young master of the Yao family, would be blamed for his absence from the family gathering, but in fact he didn't.There were hundreds of people in the crowd, but no one mentioned him.

He suddenly understood where the indifference of that person came from last year and today.

The only harvest is that He Huan, as the third generation, finally met the legendary old man of the Yao family.The old man is already very old, and his steps are no longer so vigorous. When standing, he needs to put one-third of his body weight on the crutches.

Only a pair of bright eyes still carried the edge of youth.

When He Huan arrived, the old man was sitting in a wheelchair, receiving tea from several juniors.Seeing them coming from a distance, he waved to He Huan tremblingly, saying, the rare bright eyes of the old Yao family.

He Huan took the cup, washed and poured the tea in one go, smiled sincerely, and respectfully handed over his own cup.

The old man didn't take the tea, but lightly stroked the back of his hand, saying, the light of the Yao family will never go out, at least it won't go out for a hundred years.

Then he waved his hand and asked the housekeeper to push him away.

The words about seniority stuck in He Huan's throat several times and he was about to rush out, but until the old man's back disappeared from sight, he still didn't say anything.

His mother took the teacup from his slightly trembling hand.Yao Yu patted his head, held him by his side, and said, "Father has always spoken harshly, and his words and deeds today must be because he likes you very much."

He Huan felt that he was drowning in the 12-point kindness of his family, and he almost couldn't see the line between love and hate.Really, only a little bit.

That night, he went back to the room he had lived in last year. Before going to sleep, he opened the window and looked up. He couldn't help but want to look at the window on the fifth floor.The dark window gave He Huan a bizarre dream.

In the dream, a pair of broad and cool hands ran through his hair, coaxing him to sleep patiently and gently.The little him just held onto the man's knuckles tightly and fell asleep on those big hands.

"What a lazy pig." Someone scolded him.

He Huan raised his head while cheating, and met a pair of cold eyes.

The night breeze is slightly cool, blowing wisps into dreamland.He turned over, gradually regained consciousness, and then stared at the empty night without moving for a long time.

If there was someone next to the bed, I'm afraid he would have thought he was asleep, but he didn't. Instead, he exhaled slowly, turned around, and fell asleep again.

After so many years of nightmares, it is really surprising that such a picture would enter the dream.

Seeing Yao Qi again, another four seasons have passed.In late autumn, the ginkgo leaves are no longer bright yellow, and they fall to the road unsteadily when the wind blows.

After He Huan finished his homework, he opened the window and suddenly saw a familiar figure across the road.The standard tall body with broad shoulders, narrow hips, and a tall, blurred face was looking at his window, looking at him from afar.

Although he knew that the probability of Yao Qi appearing here was almost zero, He Huan's expectations kept tilting towards that person.After hesitating for a moment, he put on a coat and chased out the door.

Yao Qi just returned to Daicheng two days ago, and he just passed by here today, but when he passed by, he suddenly saw this house and remembered that his brother's family lived here now.I got out of the car involuntarily, wanting to stay a little longer.

He didn't plan to show up at first, but when he saw He Huan found himself, he didn't dodge. Instead, he took two and a half steps back and leaned against the black sports car behind him, low-key and flamboyant.

"Uncle?" He Huan called him across the road.

"Ah."

"Why are you here?"

"Passing by."

"Is it cold? No one at home can go up and sit for a while." He Huan noticed the girl's coat half hanging on his body, the stubble of his beard that he hadn't had time to shave off, and his body covered in snow.

"No, there's a meeting in half an hour."

In a word, this too hasty meeting was terminated.

He Huan curled his lips and said, "I've seen bosses oppressing employees, but it's rare to see bosses who push themselves so hard."You are a role model for working people all over the world.

If it were anyone else, with Yao Qi's frozen temper and his vengeful manner, He Huan would not be able to see the sun the next day, but that day, he just hugged his chest and looked at He Huan leisurely for a while, saying, next time I will You bring a gift and wait for me.

He got in the car, kicked the accelerator and left.He Huan stood alone in the wind and suddenly felt a little cold.

"Xiao Huan? What are you doing standing at the door?"

The voice of inquiry entered my ears, and when I turned around, it was my stepfather who was more salty than fish every day.He got out of the car wearing a thin sweater, and behind him was his own mother who was still shivering with layers of clothes on.He Huan sighed and asked, why did work end so early today?

"The big star's schedule is too full, and all the work is done in a hurry. Our accompanying shifts naturally follow the rhythm, so today is a little earlier." She asked casually as she took her son to the entrance: homework Are you done?

He Huan resentfully: Mom, I'm not five years old, I don't need you to do everything myself.

Yao Yu passed by the two of them like a ghost, complaining, "Oh!She has never domestically abused you, so what is there to be dissatisfied with?well!As he said that, he went to the kitchen in three steps at a time.

He Huan looked at the back of him leaving in a hurry and smiled, and his eyes were wet when he smiled.

In the past, father and mother were also a pair of sons and daughters who were talented and beautiful in the eyes of others, but his biological father, a man named He Yikun, personally used violence to send the family of three on the road of mutual hatred.

Fortunately, Yao Yu still came after going around, not too late.

Hopefully, a new man who loves with all his strength can make mother forget about the crazy and dark old man.

When watching variety shows together, Yao Yu once held his wife's shoulders and casually said: This little girl is so beautiful and cute.While talking, he sent the peeled orange to his wife's mouth, but the other party didn't pick it up.Turning around, she saw that she was silently looking at him.

"what happened?"

After being silent for a long time, she pursed her lips vigorously and said, I emphasized before marriage that He Huan will be the only child in my life. No matter where we go in the future, whether our relationship will become better or not, this will never be decided. will change.

Yao Yu paused, took his lover into his arms, and said, don't be afraid, I know, I know.

The strings that had been tense all this time suddenly relaxed, and tears silently rolled down her cheeks.

At that time, He Huan just came out of his room, stood by the wall for a while, and then turned back secretly.He didn't want his mother to stay in the shadow of the past, blaming himself for the child's dark childhood for the rest of his life.But he doesn't know what to do to change the status quo.Obviously everyone is very good, everyone is right, why should it be like this.

At that time, He Huan didn't know that the world was far from black and white, let alone defined by right or wrong.

After a hasty farewell on the street, He Huan thought it would be a long time before we saw each other again, but at six o'clock in the morning on the weekend, he fell asleep alone at home when he heard the doorbell ring, and it was a tireless sound.

He hurriedly dressed and went to open the door, only to see a tall man standing outside the door.The people under the steps looked at him quietly, without any superfluous expressions. If it wasn't for the smell of alcohol, He Huan really thought that Yao Qi had something serious and important to knock on the door at this time.

He took a step forward to support him, Yao Qi obediently gave him his arm, and followed his footsteps to walk in. Other than his slow pace, he couldn't tell that he was a drunk at all.If He Huan hadn't seen this person's high-spirited appearance on weekdays, he would definitely think that he was still awake at this moment.

After helping the person in, He Huan turned back and vaguely remembered that there was another person lying on the street tree vomiting.While vomiting, he muttered something, CEO, tell me!Am I your right-hand man?you say!If yes, why not raise wages!

He Huan stood there and waited for a while, thinking: Should I record it with my mobile phone?Maybe it can be used as a favorable handle in the future...

The driver was terrified at the silent and smiling He Huan, and hurriedly got out of the car to pat Jiang He's back, while trying to wake him up nervously: Brother Jiang?Brother Jiang?Do you remember who I am?

Jiang He finally looked up at him and said, Yao Qi!Leave me alone if you have the ability!Why do you care about me if you deduct my salary?go away!

He Huan watched from the side, and couldn't help laughing in his heart, how much did he drink to make two people who had been in the shopping mall so drunk.

Seeing He Huan faintly feeling that he was about to finish playing, the driver hurriedly dragged Jiang He to the car, and finally he didn't forget to turn around and apologize to He Huan, saying that he drank too much, young master, don't mind.

He Huan smiled wryly, why did he mind with a drunk, even if he rushed up and kicked him, he might not remember it when he woke up.

In the room, Yao Qi was still obediently sitting on the sofa, but his eyes never left He Huan, like a child in a kindergarten waiting for a teacher to praise him, full of anticipation.

He Huan squeezed the twitching eyebrows, poured him water, drank the hangover medicine, and helped him to the guest room.I can't help but wonder in my heart: stepfather is not here, so I don't know if I have seen such a scene according to their brother relationship.

"and many more."

Before pushing the door to leave, He Huan was stopped by the person on the bed again, so he could only turn around and ask, are you uncomfortable?

Who knew that Yao Qi didn't speak, but stretched out a hand to him.He Huan felt that the corners of his brows twitched even more, but he still walked back, held his fingers weakly, and asked, what's the matter.

The person on the bed leaned forward, approached his ear, and said, tell you... I cleaned up the people who have been bullying me today...

He Huan raised his head, and was facing a pair of red bloodshot eyes, as if he had been bullied and begged for comfort.
