As soon as he heard the name, Rodin knew it was her, the box he had taken back.
"I know where the box is. I saw it was a high school book, so I bought it. I've read it, but I don't understand it yet. You can come with me to get it. But you have to give me two dollars for the box."
Luo Dan also saw how much Lu Xiao cared about the box. So, how could she not return it? She had paid for it, so naturally, she had to give it to her.
"This is as it should be, this is as it should be, thank you, thank you!"
Lu Xiao immediately took out the money he had prepared. It was actually quite small, only five yuan.
"This is the money I saved, I'm giving it all to you. Thank you for being willing to pay it back."
It was more than just a box; it was his dream, his grievance, his only freedom...
Everyone said he was obedient, sensible, and a good student. He would definitely bring honor to his parents in the future. He was a genius.
However, only he himself knows how his life has been.
There is a saying that parents often say, that the early bird catches the worm.
From the age of three, when others were still playing in the mud, he began to recite 300 Tang poems.
While others were still playing at home, he had already started learning pinyin. When he started school, he kept doing exercises, exercises, and exercises...
His life is a test paper. If he gets one wrong, he will take another test paper.
If you get two questions wrong, you'll have to add four more papers. No one needs to tell you, his parents are his teachers.
They thought their genes would create the most outstanding son, but their expectations were met with disappointment.
He didn't inherit their smart genes, so they started to transform the stupid bird.
They insisted on transforming him into a typical example of an early bird.
Others beat their children when they are disobedient, but they don’t do that.
But it was more frustrating than beating a child. They would move him to an empty room.
There was nothing in the room, it was empty, so they let him in.
The curtains in that room were also blackout curtains. Once they were drawn and the lights were turned off, it was pitch black.
They drew the curtains, closed the door, turned off the lights, and left him alone.
He was scared, extremely scared.
In the pitch dark, he cried and shouted with fear.
His voice became hoarse as he let fear surround him.
There was no sound around him, but he could hear his own heartbeat. Boom, boom, boom...
I don't know how much time passed. It seemed like a lifetime.
He thought he was going to die.
The door opened.
He saw the light and ran out desperately.
But his parents just looked at him coldly and didn't speak to him.
Lu Xiao closed his eyes, then opened them. What happened to him? Why did he remember those things again?
Later, he became much smarter, studying and taking tests diligently.
He will still be locked up.
His favorite thing was the Chinese New Year, when he could go to his grandfather's house. It was also at his grandfather's house that he watched cartoons.
Actually, it was just ants moving and monkeys building houses. But he thought it was really novel and amazing!
He seemed to have found his direction and later began to collect more things.
He knew that there were TV series and movies...
He found his dream, but his parents thought that watching TV was a waste of time.
He was imprisoned again and sold everything he had collected.
In fact, he knew in his heart that the chances of finding it were slim. The recycling station was so large, and so many things were taken away every day, so the chances of him not finding it were very high. Maybe his excitement was for nothing.
But he still wanted to give it a try. Could he find it by trying?
He was unwilling to see his dream disappear just like that.
"You don't have to give it to me now, and you don't have to pay five dollars. Just come back with me and get it."
Lu Xiao quickly agreed and walked back with Rodin, who was still smiling.
"Aren't you afraid that I'm a bad person?"
Seeing Luo Dan smile, Lu Xiao felt a little embarrassed. He was always doing homework. He really didn't know how to get along with girls.
His parents wouldn't allow him to talk to girls.
Now he is in the second year of high school, and he doesn’t even know the names of the girls in his class. So at this moment, he feels a little embarrassed and his ears are a little red.
When they reached the bottom of the yard, Rodin didn't let him go up.
"Just wait here for me, I'll get it for you."
Luo Dan went upstairs and asked Luo Kang, who was doing his homework, to help take the braised meat downstairs. It was just in time to start selling the braised meat.
"I've read all your books. But the things under the box haven't been touched. Can you see if anything is missing?"
Lu Xiao was particularly excited when he saw the box. He quickly took it and looked through it. Seeing that his precious things were still there, he felt relieved.
As long as he took it home, no matter whether he opened it or not or where he put it, his parents would find it.
Instead of this...
Lu Xiao made a decision. "I think I'd better not take it back. Can you keep it for me? I'm afraid it will be sold again if I take it back."
Rodin frowned, somewhat undecided.
"I don't need those books anymore, so I'll give them to you. Besides, you bought these too, so please don't throw them away.
