Although Fu Zhengyu wanted to play with Wan Qiu during the break today, Wan Qiu started sleeping as soon as the get out of class was over.
But Wan Qiu was sleeping after class for several consecutive times, which made Fu Zhengyu very strange.
During lunch, Fu Zhengyu asked in confusion: "Why did you sleep so much today?"
"I want to feel less sleepy in the afternoon and evening." Wan Qiu said truthfully.
"What are you going to do... Oh yes, tomorrow is Brother Chu's birthday, are you going to celebrate Brother Chu's birthday?" Fu Zhengyu thought of this immediately.
Wan Qiu looked a little dazed.
Then he nodded.
"You were also so nervous last time when Chu celebrated his birthday. This year is even more exaggerated than last year."
Fu Zhengyu was just joking. In fact, he was not interested in whether Wan Qiu slept or not. He just asked casually.
Wan Qiu was not very interested in answering and was even more silent than usual.
As soon as the last period of school was over, Fu Zhengyu ran to the playground to play basketball and immediately looked for Wan Qiu.
But today Wan Qiu refused.
"Where else are you going if not to the playground?" Fu Zhengyu knew Wan Qiu's schedule very well. "Your second brother shouldn't be here at this time, right?"
Wan Qiu said: "I won't leave school. I will wait for my brother to finish school together today."
"Then why don't you wait in the playground?" Fu Zhengyu usually asked Wan Qiu to help him watch his schoolbag.
"I want to wait at the school gate." Wan Qiu said.
Fu Zhengyu scratched his hair.
"Then I'll go wait with you at the school gate."
Fu Zhengyu finally put on his schoolbag again, which he had been planning to put down.
Wan Qiu shook his head.
"But doesn't your family not allow you to go alone? Aren't you afraid that your family will be angry if you go to the door alone?" Fu Zhengyu asked. He was asked to keep an eye on Wan Qiu.
"I won't leave the school gate." Wan Qiu said.
Fu Zhengyu scratched his head in confusion: "What's wrong with you today? Why are you so weird?"
Wan Qiu just remained silent.
Fu Zhengyu finally had no choice but to say, "Then don't leave the school gate. Just wait for Chu Yigui at the gate?"
"Um."
Fu Zhengyu couldn't persuade Wan Qiu, so he put his schoolbag down again: "Then I'm going to go play?"
"Yeah." Wan Qiu said.
Fu Zhengyu looked at Wan Qiu's back as he left. Although he didn't know what Wan Qiu wanted to do, he always felt that Wan Qiu seemed more difficult to talk to today than usual.
Is there something important to do?
Fu Zhengyu thought about it, took out his cell phone and sent a message to Li Shuo.
Wan Qiu arrived at the school gate carrying his schoolbag and sat at the edge of the green belt.
This is a blind spot at the exit of the school, and usually no one gathers in this corner after school.
Wan Qiu took out his textbook and started memorizing, but the neatly written words became messy and unsightly due to his absent-mindedness.
There are always a lot of people at the school gate after school, and it is bustling.
Some were playing together, some were leaving alone, and some were picked up by others.
Wan Qiu held the textbook and looked at everyone.
Until most of the elementary school students had left and the junior high school students had not yet finished their classes, Wan Qiu began to feel discouraged.
Fu Zhengyu also left, but he ran out of the school gate so fast that he didn't notice Wan Qiu in the blind spot of his vision.
Wan Qiu didn't talk to Fu Zhengyu either.
Wan Qiu sat quietly.
His eyes were always fixed on the vehicles that kept arriving at the school gate and looking at the people getting off the vehicles.
Finally, Wan Qiu found the person he wanted to see.
Wan Qiu stood up, picked up his schoolbag, and walked towards the man.
The tall man had thin shoulders, which showed that he was not young.
The man turned around and saw Wan Qiu.
His eyes were fixed on Wan Qiu, and Wan Qiu also raised his head.
The man turned his back to his car and walked towards Wan Qiu.
Wan Qiu held his schoolbag in both hands and looked up at the tall man.
Ran Yongrui spoke first: "You look like you're waiting for me."
This was the first time Wan Qiu took the initiative to talk to a stranger.
But because he had reasons to support him, Wan Qiu did not show any fear: "Hello."
Ran Yongrui lowered his head and said to Wan Qiu: "Do you have something to say to me?"
Wan Qiu took a breath quietly: "Are you going to take your brother away?"
Wan Qiu held his breath.
Waiting for Ran Yongrui's answer.
"yes."
The overly affirmative answer caused Wan Qiu's vision to go blank for a moment.
"Why?" Wan Qiu continued to ask.
"Because he's my child."
"But...you abandoned him."
"I wasn't the one who abandoned him."
Wan Qiu quietly tightened the straps of his schoolbag: "But he is very good at home."
Ran Yongrui looked at Wan Qiu.
The thin child did not hide his panic at all, but still stood in front of him.
Like a squirrel spreading its skinny claws to try to block a wild cat.
However, Ran Yongrui had no intention of treating other people's children gently.
"That's your home, not the child's home, right? You are related to your parents and brothers by blood, but the child is not. The only person who is related to him by blood is me. I am his only relative."
"He is my younger brother." Wan Qiu said immediately.
"You are still too young to understand. You don't know how important blood is. You and he are not brothers at all. He can never be a member of your family."
Wan Qiu knew that he was stupid, and there must be many important things in this world that he didn't know or understand.
For example, the blood relationship that this man mentioned.
But there was one thing he knew very clearly.
"He is my brother, my relative, and the most important person to me!"
Wan Qiu told the man in front of him affirmatively.
"He is very important to me. He is my son. He is the child who was born because of me."
Ran Yongrui's expression is always calm and his tone is neither fast nor slow.
He did not regard Wan Qiu, who forced him to face him, as an equal dialogue partner.
"Did you come here specifically to protect that child?"
"He is my brother, I have to protect him."
Ran Yongrui smiled.
The way an adult laughs at a child who says something funny.
Ran Yongrui never took Wan Qiu's seriousness to heart, nor did he treat Wan Qiu's worries equally.
Even if he wanted to negotiate, Wan Qiu was never within his negotiation range.
"Don't joke with your uncle."
Ran Yongrui's voice was cold and indifferent.
"That's something the child has to decide for himself. You are just a non-blood brother."
Wan Qiu is sensitive to emotions.
With this man, Wan Qiu couldn't even see him looking directly at him.
Wan Qiu didn't understand what this meant in terms of disrespect for him, and he couldn't find a way to retort.
But Wan Qiu, who has always been easily affected by other people's emotions, has always been influenced by Chu Yigui.
In a dream, in a world made up of memories and ashes.
Wan Qiu felt Chu Yigui's emotions.
——'He left the Chu family.'
Not 'he was happy to leave the Chu family'.
His brother wasn't doing anything happy.
Wan Qiu raised his head and told the man seriously: "No matter how many times my brother sees you, he is not happy."
"You definitely can't take your brother away."
"I will protect him!"
Wan Qiu was so determined.
"You are such an arrogant child. You are from a wealthy family, but they didn't give you enough education?"
Ran Yongrui frowned.
He stretched out his hand.
The tall middle-aged man was like a huge shadow. As the hand approached, he gradually swallowed up the evening glow covering Wan Qiu.
Wan Qiu stood firmly where he was, showing no fear.
However, a hand suddenly stretched out from behind Wan Qiu and directly opened the hand that was stretched out to Wan Qiu.
The crisp sound suddenly broke the cold atmosphere that permeated the entire space.
Ran Yongrui kept his hands open, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
"What are you doing?" Chu Yigui's voice came from behind Wan Qiu.
Wan Qiu opened his arms after realizing who was behind him.
It was as if he wanted to use his height to stand between the two people and separate them.
Ran Yongrui's expression returned to calm, and he asked Chu Yigui: "What did you tell him about me? He treated me as an enemy."
"Brother won't reject someone for no reason. It's either because of me, or because Mr. Ran looks like a bad guy, or both."
Chu Yigui looked very calm, without any joy in facing his blood relatives.
"Hey." Ran Yongrui obviously regained some patience after seeing Chu Yigui, "Would you like to have dinner together tonight?"
"Sorry, I need to go home from school with my brother tonight." Chu Yigui said.
"Are you going to refuse your father?" Ran Yongrui asked.
Chu Yigui didn't even answer this sentence, as if he didn't think this sentence was spoken to him.
Chu Yigui simply pulled Wan Qiu's hand and walked directly past Ran Yongrui.
As they passed by, Chu Yigui said to Ran Yongrui, "I don't think I told you that I wanted to meet you. I'm having dinner with you just out of courtesy. Please don't misunderstand me."
Ran Yongrui turned around and looked at Chu Yigui who didn't even look back.
However, it was Wan Qiu who was being dragged away who looked back at him.
"At least say goodbye to dad."
Ran Yongrui's voice didn't seem to reach Chu Yigui's ears.
But it is definitely audible at this distance.
Ran Yongrui and Chu Yigui have met many times, and he has come more frequently recently.
The other party's attitude has been neither soft nor hard, which makes Ran Yongrui a little unsure.
He seemed to have no intention of leaving the Chu family, but he also seemed to have no deep attachment to the Chu family.
And today he saw that Chu Yigui looked different from usual.
The more powerful part was the first time that Ran Yongrui truly captured Chu Yigui's emotions.
Is it because of the similar age that the relationship is closer?
Ran Yongrui frowned and thought.
Wan Qiu was pulled away by Chu Yigui.
The school uniforms of the junior high school and elementary school are different; they look more like brothers of opposite ages.
The junior high school students were out of school at this time, and Chu Yigui was one of the first to come out.
When Wan Qiu turned around, he saw a large group of students leaving school next to Ran Yongrui.
Wan Qiu turned his head and looked at Chu Yigui beside him again.
In the sunset, Chu Yigui's fingers holding Wan Qiu seemed to be redder than usual.
The bright colored lights and the already lit street lamps are illuminating the road.
Wan Qiu looked at Chu Yigui's back illuminated by the colorful light, and seemed to see complex and gorgeous colors.
"What was brother talking about with that person just now?"
Chu Yigui slowed down his pace and transmitted his voice to Wan Qiu.
Wan Qiu said truthfully: "I told him that I will protect you and won't let him take you away."
Chu Yigui stopped and turned his head.
The lights of passing vehicles seemed to be reflected in Chu Yigui's pupils, flickering.
"Why did you know he would be at the school gate?"
"I don't know, I'm just waiting for him because my brother occasionally eats with him and I thought he might come." Wan Qiu replied.
Chu Yigui stared at Wan Qiu.
Suddenly laughed.
Wan Qiu felt Chu Yigui ruffling his hair with both hands.
"My brother is really getting smarter."
Wan Qiu looked at his brother eagerly through the gap between Chu Yigui's arms.
"Does brother hate him?" Chu Yigui asked.
"Um."
"Why?"
"Because my brother is always unhappy." Wan Qiu held Chu Yigui's arm, "Whenever my brother sees him, he will always be unhappy."
Chu Yigui opened his mouth and laughed dumbly: "Brother, do you even know how many times I have met him?"
"But now my brother... is very happy." Wan Qiu said.
Although Chu Yigui's smile faded, it did not disappear.
"I'm happy because of my brother, not because of him." Chu Yigui said.
Wan Qiu pursed his lips, seeming a little proud: "My brother is always happy when he is with me."
Chu Yigui raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Yes."
Wan Qiu and Chu Yigui held hands and walked home together.
They go to school together, but they haven't finished class together for a long time.
"After midnight tonight, I will be sixteen years old." Chu Yigui said.
"Happy birthday to you in advance." Wan Qiu said.
"You won't tell me at twelve o'clock tonight?"
"I'll tell you again at twelve."
"I still have to go to school on my birthday, so the time to celebrate in the evening will be very short."
"I'll sing happy birthday to my brother."
The conversation, which has no nutritional value, is an expectation for a happy tomorrow.
The two people's steps were not quite consistent, one had big steps and the other had small steps, but they were at the same speed.
They walked close to the side of the road, and occasionally their clothes would brush the leaves of the green bushes beside them, causing them to sway slightly.
"Brother, do you want to be with me?"
"Um."
Wan Qiu responded, he turned his head and looked at Chu Yigui.
Before long, there should be only a little bit of white left on the horizon.
Wan Qiu asked before walking into the night.
"Will my brother be with me then?"
Chu Yigui looks back at the autumn days.
"Um."
Wan Qiu quietly pulled Chu Yigui's hand.
There was a gust of wind.
The dust at my feet was blown up.
Wan Qiu lowered his head and seemed to see the lingering ashes.
——
Wan Qiu was looking at the stairs.
The things in the dream will happen, and Wan Qiu feels that this cannot be tolerated.
Just as shown in the dream.
There is a possibility that Chu Yigui will really leave the Chu family.
The appearance of Chu Yigui’s biological father is the biggest evidence.
So it is possible that Chu Yigui would also break his leg and curl up on the ground in pain.
However, the house near the school is just a high-rise duplex and does not actually have the wide staircase like in the dream.
Because the stairs are narrow, the handrail should be easy to hold.
Will I get hurt?
Wan Qiu still remembers that in his dream, he was standing on the stairs and Chu Yigui fell down the stairs.
--'Happy birthday. '
He said this.
At twelve o'clock, Wan Qiu will say happy birthday to his younger brother.
Then my brother fell down.
Avoid this from happening.
If you want to avoid stairs, why not just not go upstairs on your birthday?
So Wan Qiu asked Chu Yigui to do his homework on the first floor today. Although Chu Yigui was confused, he did not refuse.
Wan Qiu sat on the last step of the stairs, deep in thought.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Chu Yigui asked.
Wan Qiu's expression was extremely solemn, so solemn that Chu Yigui couldn't ignore it.
Wan Qiu was unwilling to give the reason.
"Okay." Chu Yigui was somewhat helpless, "Then aren't you going back to sleep tonight?"
Wan Qiu nodded.
Chu Yigui's smile was a little subtle: "Then where should we sleep?"
"Sofa." Wan Qiu said.
"There is only one row of sofas, and only one person can sleep on them." Chu Yigui said.
"I can sleep on the floor."
There is carpet on the floor and the weather is not too cold now, so just cover yourself with a quilt.
Chu Yigui asked: "What about the change of clothes?"
"You can ask your second brother for help." Wan Qiu said.
"Um……"
Although Chu Yigui didn't understand Wan Qiu's reason for doing this, but...
"All right."
Chu Yigui compromised.
When Yang Ze came down with his clothes in confusion, he saw Wan Qiu, who was guarding the stairs like a guardian of the stairs, and looked at Chu Yigui in confusion.
Chu Yigui also spread his hands, indicating that he didn't understand either.
Wan Qiu sat on the carpet, staring at Chu Yigui, who had changed into pajamas and was lying on the sofa.
If today passes safely, it proves that the words in memory that are bound to happen will not actually happen.
Then the memory of him being abandoned would not happen.
Chu Yigui held up his chin and looked at Wan Qiu: "Can't I go upstairs today?"
"Yeah." Wan Qiu nodded affirmatively.
Chu Yigui smiled and asked, "Why?"
Even though Chu Yigui asked many times, Wan Qiu still wouldn't answer.
Chu Yigui thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that my brother can predict the future? Predicted that I would fall down the stairs?"
Wan Qiu's eyes widened: "Predict the future?"
"Knowing what will happen in the future in advance is called predicting the future," Chu Yigui explained.
Wan Qiu paused for a moment and pursed his lips: "Well, I can predict the future."
Chu Yigui couldn't help laughing.
He looked at Wan Qiu who was hugging the sofa pillow and said, "Then I must be careful not to go upstairs today."
"Yeah!" Wan Qiu nodded.
Chu Yigui lay down.
It should be time to go to bed at twelve o'clock, but today is special.
They waited together for twelve o'clock.
The two of them watched the time pass by minute by minute.
Chu Yigudan curled up his legs and looked at Wan Qiu who was equally serious.
The lights in the living room had been turned off until only a dim light was left, which was neither dim nor bright.
When twelve o'clock suddenly arrived, Wan Qiu took a breath and said, "Happy birthday."
Once again, it was that not-so-nice Happy Birthday song.
Chu Yigui tilted his head and listened with a smile on his face.
Wan Qiu pushed the wrapped gift to Chu Yigui. Chu Yigui looked at the square box with smiles in his eyes.
“Can I open it?”
"Yeah." Wan Qiu said.
Chu Yigui carefully opened the outer packaging and saw the small house inside.
This time it is a small Japanese-style house with warm and lovely decoration.
"But we can only make it together during the summer vacation." Chu Yigui smiled and said, "We have to wait."
"It doesn't matter." Wan Qiu blinked and said, "I'm waiting too."
Chu Yigui's laughter was echoing.
Wan Qiu looked at Chu Yigui and saw a very beautiful and happy expression.
Like...
Like the moon.
"Brother, come here." Chu Yigui said.
Wan Qiu put down the pillow in his hand and walked to Chu Yigui in confusion.
However, Chu Yigui suddenly pulled Wan Qiu's hand and pressed Wan Qiu down on the sofa.
Wan Qiu lay on the sofa, still dazed.
"Although it's a bit reluctant, it's not completely impossible."
Chu Yigui leaned sideways, completely covering Wan Qiu in the gap between him and the sofa.
He pulled a thin blanket over them.
"Good night, brother."
Wan Qiu hesitated and poked his head out from under the quilt.
He blinked and looked at Chu Yigui.
Chu Yigui had already closed his eyes, looking like he would not concede rejection.
Wan Qiu looked at it for a long time.
The sofa is not big enough for two people to sleep together.
So there is no distance between them anymore.
Wan Qiu touched Chu Yigui's chest and pressed down.
It's warm and elastic.
It's real.
Wan Qiu hugged Chu Yigui just as Chu Yigui hugged him.
Closed his eyes.
He leaned towards Chu Yigui's neck, and the scent of Chu Yigui after bathing and his taste intertwined with each other, which was very hypnotic.
Wan Qiu was surrounded by the warm and fragrant smell and allowed himself to fall asleep.
When Yang Ze came down to look at the two of them, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
Not knowing whether to laugh or cry, he turned off the last light.
Then he went upstairs and returned to his room.
——
On the way to school, Li Shuo saw Wan Qiu and Chu Yigui who had just got off the bus.
Both parties happened to see each other, and although Li Shuo wanted to run away, he held back.
Even though he was given a hard time by Wan Qiu on this day last year, it shouldn't be the same this year.
Li Shuo seldom skipped classes recently, and the number of times he and Wan Qiu met was very few.
But Fu Zhengyu would often send him messages.
For example, yesterday after class, Chu Yigui did not stay in the classroom to discuss the questions with his classmates, which was rare. Instead, he rushed out of the classroom directly because Fu Zhengyu sent a message to Li Shuo.
Fu Zhengyu told about Wan Qiu's abnormality, and then Li Shuo acted as a messenger and told Chu Yigui.
but……
This is the first time I see Chu Yigui so nervous.
"Brother Li Shuo." Wan Qiu greeted Li Shuo politely when he saw him.
Wan Qiu learned to call himself Brother Li Shuo from Fu Zhengyu, but Fu Zhengyu hasn't started to grow yet, but he has grown a lot taller.
After all, there is still an age gap.
"What happened to you yesterday?" Li Shuo was also a little curious.
Wan Qiu tilted his head and said to Li Shuo, "I'm waiting for someone to come to the school gate."
"Have you waited?" Li Shuo asked.
"I've been waiting for you." Wan Qiu nodded obediently.
"Who are you waiting for? Did anyone bully you? A classmate?" Although Li Shuo's tone sounded indifferent, he still asked seriously.
"No, I'm waiting for an uncle." Wan Qiu said.
"Oh." If it wasn't something about school, then it would have nothing to do with Li Shuo.
Li Shuo doesn't dare to skip classes these days and has been studying seriously.
There is still more than a month left before the high school entrance exam. If I don’t do well in the exam, things will be troublesome.
Li Shuo still knows what is important and what is not.
"I don't have much time to take care of other things recently. If you have something to do, do you know who to find?" Li Shuo turned his head and asked Wan Qiu.
Wan Qiu nodded and said, "Look for someone from the second year of junior high school."
Li Shuo responded.
Chu Yigui stopped, and Li Shuo stopped too. They both looked at Wan Qiu.
However, Wan Qiu held Chu Yigui's hand and showed no intention of letting go.
He looked up at them eagerly.
"Brother, we've arrived at the elementary school. Let's go to class quickly." Chu Yigui said.
Wan Qiu shook his head: "I want to take my brother to the classroom today."
Li Shuo raised his eyebrows. Is there going to be another surprise?
But Wan Qiu didn't look very expectant.
"Okay." Chu Yigui turned around and continued walking with Wan Qiu.
Li Shuo looked at them in confusion. After seeing it so many times, he actually got used to the two boys walking hand in hand.
There were already classmates around greeting them, and everyone had a good impression of Chu Yigui who loved to share.
Even Li Shuo was actually trying to curry favor with Chu Yigui at this time, wanting him to take care of him more.
Li Shuo took out a pack of chocolate biscuits from his backpack.
Throw it to Chu Yigui.
Chu Yigui, who suddenly got the biscuits, was also a little confused.
"Happy birthday." Li Shuo said.
The cookies looked like they were taken from some corner of the supermarket, stuffed randomly into a schoolbag, and then forgotten in the bag for three or four days.
The packaging bag was creased all over, and the biscuits inside were obviously not spared.
But Chu Yigui smiled: "Thank you, you also gave me a birthday present last year."
Li Shuo thought about it. Was he talking about the breakfast?
Although if these could be considered birthday gifts, he himself still felt they were tacky.
only……
Li Shuo looked at Wan Qiu's bright eyes as he looked at him, and he seemed very happy that he would give Chu Yigui a gift.
After all, it was all thanks to Wan Qiu that Li Shuo was able to remember Chu Yigui's birthday.
The first time was at Wan Qiu’s request.
The second time was because Wan Qiu and Fu Zhengyu mentioned it, and Fu Zhengyu told him.
It was just like something that friends would do, although he still felt that his relationship with Chu Yigui was just so-so.
"If there is a chance, I also hope to give you a birthday present." Chu Yigui said to Li Shuo.
“No thanks.” Li Shuo’s birthday is always during the summer vacation, and he usually celebrates it with familiar friends. He hasn’t contacted these two people during the summer vacation.
Chu Yigui didn't dwell on this topic.
While going upstairs, Wan Qiu let go of Chu Yigui's hand.
Standing behind Chu Yigui.
Chu Yigui stood on the stairs and looked back: "Brother, are you going to take me to the classroom door?"
Wan Qiu nodded as a matter of course.
Li Shuo was feeling awkward as he watched from the side. What was going on?
Chu Yigui had his back to Wan Qiu, so he couldn't see, but Li Shuo could see it clearly.
Wan Qiu's eyes were as if he was looking at a shaky vase that was about to fall off the corner of the table, his gaze was fixed with nervousness.
When Chu Yigui passed by someone, he paused for a moment, and Wan Qiu nervously opened his arms, as if he was afraid that Chu Yigui would fall.
Li Shuo: “…”
It’s such a big school with so many people going up and down the stairs every day, but he hasn’t seen many people actually fall?
"Then brother, let's go to the classroom?" Chu Yigui, who was already standing at the door, turned around and said to Wan Qiu.
Wan Qiu nodded.
"See you tonight, brother." After getting Wan Qiu's response, Chu Yigui entered the classroom.
Li Shuo went to the classroom without thinking, but suddenly, he felt a slight force on his clothes that was not very obvious.
Li Shuo: “…” He had a bad feeling.
Li Shuo turned around expressionlessly and looked at Wan Qiu.
Wan Qiu obviously had something to say, but seemed very hesitant.
"Just say it if you have something to say." Li Shuo stepped out of the classroom door and said expressionlessly.
"Don't let your brother get close to the stairs today." Wan Qiu said to Li Shuo very seriously, "Please."
"...Why?" Li Shuo asked.
But Wan Qiu couldn't answer.
Just by looking into Wan Qiu's eyes, Li Shuo found that he couldn't refuse.
"I got it. Go back quickly. Class is about to start. You don't want to be late, do you?" Li Shuo said.
After getting Li Shuo's consent, Wan Qiu was obviously much more relaxed.
Then Li Shuo saw Wan Qiu also rummaging through his schoolbag, and put a box of milk in his hand.
Li Shuo holding the milk: "..."
"Thank you." After saying this, Wan Qiu turned around and ran away, looking anxious as if he was already late.
It was indeed getting late, and we had to hurry up. Wan Qiu obviously knew that.
Li Shuo walked into the classroom with a depressed look on his face and a cup of milk.
Chu Yigui obviously noticed that Li Shuo seemed to have said something to Wan Qiu, and his eyes never left Li Shuo.
Like a silent question.
Li Shuo put the milk on Chu Yigui's desk. He didn't like drinking milk.
"He was acting so sneaky this morning. It turned out he was taking this?" Chu Yigui looked at the milk and suddenly laughed out loud.
Li Shuo asked: "Did you two go to have your fortune told?"
"Why do you say that?" Chu Yigui asked.
"Your brother told me not to let you get close to the stairs." Li Shuo had no sense of keeping a secret at all.
"I'm confused too."
Chu Yigui picked up the milk and turned the square box of milk in his hands.
"But if my brother doesn't want me to do that, then I won't get close."
Chu Yigui thought about how Wan Qiu had been asking him to stay away from the stairs since last night.
She sat at the stairs, carefully watching to prevent him from getting close.
Although I don’t know why.
But he will do it.
"Don't even want to go to the toilet?" Li Shuo teased.
Chu Yigui thought about it seriously, put the milk in his schoolbag, and decided not to drink it.
Li Shuo sneered.
As soon as Fu Zhengyu finished class, he came to Wan Qiu's side and asked, "Aren't you going to give your brother a birthday surprise today?"
"My brother already knew that he was going to have a birthday, so I couldn't prepare a surprise." Wan Qiu said, "I gave my brother a gift yesterday."
"When did you prepare the gift?" Fu Zhengyu was surprised.
"During the holidays."
"What did you give me?"
"A handmade little house." Wan Qiu said.
Fu Zhengyu recalled carefully: "Didn't you give this to me last year?"
"Um."
"Isn't it bad to send duplicates?"
"My brother asked for it on his own initiative." Wan Qiu said.
"This is pretty good. I asked my parents for what I wanted, but they didn't give it to me, so they gave me things I didn't like." Fu Zhengyu lay in front of Wan Qiu.
However, Fu Zhengyu found Wan Qiu's expression a little subtle: "What's wrong with you?"
Wan Qiu shook his head.
Fu Zhengyu scratched his head, completely confused.
It was such a happy day, but why did Wan Qiu look like he had lost his soul?
As soon as school was over, Fu Zhengyu subconsciously went to find Wan Qiu, but Wan Qiu still didn't want to go to the playground with him today.
If Wan Qiu hadn't been the same as usual, Fu Zhengyu would have felt that he had offended Wan Qiu and that Wan Qiu was giving him a hard time.
But two days ago, Wan Qiu brought him a holiday gift and some snacks.
"Then where are you going? I'll accompany you today." Fu Zhengyu said very righteously.
Wan Qiu shook his head: "I will go by myself."
"Why? Don't you like playing with me anymore?" Fu Zhengyu was very confused. "Did I do anything to make you unhappy?"
Wan Qiu held his schoolbag and shook his head: "I'm going to look for my brother."
"Oh... yes, I forgot that Brother Chu's birthday is today." Fu Zhengyu remembered, "Then call me if you have anything."
"Yeah." Wan Qiu stopped before leaving.
He turned around and looked at Fu Zhengyu who was standing there looking at him blankly.
"Well, thank you for caring about me." Wan Qiu's fingers quietly grasped the edge of the schoolbag, "I'll bring you something delicious tomorrow."
Fu Zhengyu suddenly became happy.
I wasn't unhappy just now, but compared to now, I'm not that unhappy at all.
Wan Qiu said goodbye to Fu Zhengyu, then turned and ran towards the junior high school building.
When he arrived, the junior high school class had already started, and Wan Qiu was squatting at the door of Chu Yigui's classroom.
He didn't stick his head into the classroom, but listened carefully to see if there was any sound coming from inside the classroom.
There is no sound of the teacher lecturing.
Are you studying on your own?
Are you still doing the test paper?
While in the primary school, Wan Qiu was always thinking about Chu Yigui.
Wan Qiu has been nervous since midnight.
Only when he is with Chu Yigui can he relax a little.
Wan Qiu put his schoolbag on the windowsill, took out his homework and started writing on it.
Wan Qiu looked up unconsciously and saw that from here he could just see the edge of the playground where they usually waited.
The sun was still bright, illuminating the campus.
The elementary school students wearing the same school uniform as him on campus are gradually leaving the campus.
You can't hear the noise outside from here. In the quiet corridor, you can only hear the teachers' lectures from other classes.
Wan Qiu lowered his head and did his homework seriously.
"This question is wrong, you calculated it wrong, here." A strange voice suddenly came to Wan Qiu's ears.
Wan Qiu turned around and suddenly saw a very unfamiliar man standing behind him.
The man was wearing glasses and had short hair standing up. He looked very young and was wearing a white shirt and suit pants.
In this school, anyone who does not wear school uniform is a teacher.
Wan Qiu immediately spoke in a stammering voice: "Hello, teacher."
"Look at the questions." The male teacher said to Wan Qiu in a stern voice.
Wan Qiu immediately lowered his head and listened carefully to the teacher's explanation.
"You can even get such a simple question wrong. Didn't your teacher tell you the key points?"

Can't we wait here?
However, the male teacher entered the classroom with his hands behind his back, legs apart, and said to the students below: "Chu Yigui, pack your things."
At this time, the students who were doing the papers looked up curiously, not understanding what the teacher was going to do.
"Your brother is waiting for you outside, you should go back first today."
When the male teacher finished speaking, Wan Qiu, who was holding a book and preparing to put it away, looked up blankly.
Wan Qiu waited for a while and saw Chu Yigui coming out with his schoolbag.
The male teacher sat back on the podium and showed no intention of coming out.
"Brother, good afternoon." Chu Yigui smiled, obviously finding this unexpected development somewhat amusing, "Pack up your things, let's go home."
