Chapter 70: Change to knitting scarves
Jiang Fengyan seemed not to have heard what Chen Lixue said, and drank the soy milk expressionlessly: "Anything else? I'm very hungry."
Every word he spoke was like a knife cutting his throat, but even so, Jiang Fengyan kept his expression unchanged and finished his words without pause. Apart from his hoarse voice, there was nothing unusual to be heard.
Chen Lixue's expression became complicated: "Is it painful to starve you for a night?"
Jiang Fengyan's eyes fell on the empty bowl, his hand holding the spoon moved, and he closed his eyes tiredly: "Yes."
"Your uncle and others came to me to ask about you, and you turned out to be such a bad person, so I wanted to punish you so that you will remember this lesson." Chen Lixue said, looking at Jiang Fengyan's arm.
"Mom." Jiang Fengyan opened his eyes, which were dead silent. He waited until Chen Lixue finished speaking before speaking softly, "I can't bear it anymore."
On the day his parents divorced, they let him and his younger brother Jiang Mingzhou choose who to follow.
This is actually an easy choice, because my father has a good temper and open-minded thinking. Even if he is angry, he will only reason with them and has never hit them. But his mother was very strict, so he and Jiang Mingzhou had to be very careful in front of her every time, and even so they were often beaten and scolded.
But even though the choice was so easy, he and Jiang Mingzhou did not make a choice immediately, but looked at each other.
Because they knew very well that if they all followed their father, their mother would be very sad.
So, as the older brother, he took the initiative to choose his mother and let his younger brother follow his father.
Facts have proved that his choice was correct. If his brother had followed Chen Lixue, he would have been punished to kneel and beaten countless times.
He didn't want his own brother to become like he is now, unable to even talk in a relationship.
Chen Lixue's expression became more complicated after hearing Jiang Fengyan's words. She opened her mouth to say something, but when she saw that Jiang Fengyan was not in a good state, she closed her mouth and picked up the bowl on the table: "There is still soy milk, I will go get you another bowl."

Shen Chenan rarely goes home on weekends, and he is usually the only one left in the dormitory. He studied hard for three months and finally managed to get a score of 450, despite the fact that the pass rate of the three major subjects of Chinese, mathematics and English in the joint entrance examination of eight provinces was particularly low.
So he was in a good mood and wanted to go find Qin Yu during the weekend, but Qin Yu replied with two words - busy.
Chen Chenan's face darkened, thinking about how much time it would take to meet and say a few words, not to mention that he was going to find Qin Yu, not to ask Qin Yu to come to him.
As a result, at around three o'clock in the morning, Qin Yu sent him a photo.
There is no class tomorrow. Chen Chenan was still awake at this time. He looked at the photo and felt a little unwilling to give up. He replied: "Why are you sending me pictures from the Internet? ］
［. : Not an online picture. ］
Chen Chenan was puzzled and incredulous, and he sent a voice message directly: "What are you thinking in the middle of the night, knitting a scarf?"
"Yeah, it's harder than I thought." Qin Yu also replied.
"Since you can't continue playing e-sports, you've switched to knitting scarves?" Shen Chenan couldn't understand Qin Yu's behavior.
"I guess so." Qin Yu replied half-jokingly.
"You have to count the seconds even when eating. Are you sick? Go knit a scarf?"
"There is still time to spare."
Chen Chenan thought Qin Yu was just having a short-term seizure, otherwise what grown man would go knit a scarf in the middle of the night: "I'll send you the test paper and answers for the eight-province joint entrance examination. You can take a look at it when you have time."
No matter how many times Qin Yu said he wanted to drop out of school, Chen Chen'an still believed in his heart that Qin Yu would not give up the postgraduate entrance examination.
"I probably can't spare any time recently." Qin Yu did not correct Shen Chenan's words, and expressed it very tactfully.
Chen Chenan frowned: "What are you going to do without even a little free time?"
After Shen Chenan finished speaking, he added with disdain: "Knitting a scarf?"
Qin Yu: “…”
Qin Yu was unable to refute Shen Chenan's words. He smiled and skipped the matter, and continued to reply in voice: "How do you usually spend your birthday?"
Shen Chen settled down for a moment, not expecting Qin Yu to ask this question: "Buy a cake, have a meal with your family, and make a wish, how can you spend it?"
"Family?" Qin Yu grasped the key word, his pupils were dark, as if he was thinking about something.
Shen Chenan only realized something was wrong after he finished speaking. Thinking that Qin Yu’s birthday was in a month, he quickly added, “Is your birthday coming soon? Then Li Bohan… Zhou Wenyuan and I will go over to celebrate your birthday.”
When Shen Chenan mentioned the name "Zhou Wenyuan", he was obviously very reluctant.
"We'll talk about it when the time comes." Qin Yu didn't sound concerned, "Besides, Zhou Wenyuan has already left and can't come."
"Where did he go?" Chen Chen'an had always disliked Zhou Wenyuan, so he didn't know Zhou Wenyuan's movements. "Doesn't he still owe you 50,000?"
"Only fifty thousand." Qin Yu smiled, "I have known him since childhood. At that time, all the kids on the street avoided me, but he was the only one who did not discriminate against me and even shared his food with me."
My thoughts go back more than ten years ago.
His mother passed away, his father was in prison, and no relative was willing to support him. He felt desperate every day and didn't know what to do. He just managed to stay alive relying on his survival instinct.
I was very short at that time, and the school railings were even taller than me. I was wearing clothes that I hadn't changed for more than a month. I was wandering around the streets hungry, trying to find some leftover food scraps.
Just when he thought he was going to starve to death, Zhou Wenyuan walked up to him and gave him half of the bread.
He remembered this incident for the rest of his life, and no matter what Zhou Wenyuan did later, he never had any ill will towards him.
