Chapter 89

"How much did you drink?"

　　"Five or six bottles?"

　　"...You're doing well," Xie Yu frowned, and waited until the group left before letting go, "I told you not to smoke. You should change." Drink and explore new ideas?"

　　He Chao looked at him and said nothing.

　　Xie Yu saw the bruises at the corner of his mouth and was about to say "Still fighting" when He Chao stretched out his hand and took him into his arms.

　　"Don't move," He Chao put his forehead against Xie Yu's neck and whispered, "If you don't want to smoke, I'll hold him for a while."

　　The street was empty and lonely, and most of the alcoholism was blown away by the cold wind. The child was wearing a down jacket, which was loose and thick, and felt soft when he held it. It was completely different from the impatient expression on his face.

　　The two rows of street lights on the roadside extend to the horizon, like little stars, scattered and blended into the night.

　　After hugging him for a while, He Chao asked: "Why are you here 　　?

　　"

It's okay."

　　"...Don't ask for a beating."

　　He Chaoqian said a few words and closed his eyes. Only then did he really feel that it had passed.

　　It's all over.

　　Is it a relief? He Chao thought about it and felt that it was out of the question.

　　But he gradually began to understand why Lao He didn't stop him in the first place and just let him go, watching him act haphazardly and even use the most extreme method to solve the problem.

　　Being pulled up by someone and standing up by yourself are two different things.

　　"Are you going back?" The temperature was too low at night. If he stood any longer, he might catch a cold the next day. He Chao let go of his hand and said, "It's not easy to take a taxi here. You have to go to the intersection ahead."

　　Xie Yu hesitated for two seconds.

　　When he went out, Ms. Gu had already gone to bed, so he didn't say hello to her. Now that it was almost early in the morning when he got home, it was hard to explain.

　　He Chao glanced sideways at him: "How about going to my house?"

　　There was no one at He Chao's house.

　　Lao He just left a few days ago and traveled between several countries. He came back to rest for less than half a week. When I saw his final report card, I didn't say anything. I threw the list on the table and played a game of chess with him. "No matter which path you choose or how you go," 　　Lao

　　He said in a deep voice when he said the last word, "I believe you."

Awake.

　　He Zhao got out of the car and paid, then walked around to the back seat, holding his hand on the door, not wanting to wake anyone up. Finally, he bent down, kissed the corner of his mouth, and called him: "We're here."

　　He Chao's house was very clean, the kind of clean that didn't smell like fireworks. Except for the housekeeping aunt who comes to clean up once a week, there are basically no people coming and going.

　　Xie Yu sat on the sofa and watched He Chao clearing the guest room with half-squinted eyes. After waiting for a while, his patience was exhausted. He didn't even wear slippers, so he stepped on the floor with his bare feet. He walked over and asked, "Which room is yours?"

　　"... "

　　After all, He Chao drank a lot, but he was still afraid that he could not control himself. Unexpectedly, the kid in front of him was very courageous: "Aren't you afraid that I will do it to you tonight?"

　　Xie Yu leaned against the door and looked at him without a trace. Without the consciousness of being a guest: "I mean, you, sleep in the guest room."

　　Xie Yu said that he would sleep in the guest room. Looking at the time, it was almost two o'clock in the morning, so He Chao didn't let He Chao spend time cleaning up the room.

　　At this point, I have no energy to think about other things.

　　He Chao briefly took a shower and when he opened the bathroom door and walked out, Xie Yu had already closed his eyes and fell asleep, with his hair covering half of his face and breathing lightly.

　　The child was lying on his bed, suppressing all his anger and looking very well-behaved.

　　He Chao forced himself to move his eyes away, thinking that the bath just now was probably in vain.

　　Xie Yu slept lightly. The moment the sound of running water in the bathroom stopped, he moved his fingers, subconsciously feeling that he had missed something.

　　...I didn't send a text message to Ms. Gu to say she was safe.

　　But he also thought that in the middle of the night, the Zhong family had basically gone to bed, so no one would pay attention.

　　Xie Yu went out without much movement, but he was walking in a hurry, and he happened to be caught by A Fang who got up to drink water at night.

　　As soon as he left the house, several servants gathered together. Ah Fang didn't see clearly who it was and thought it was Zhong Jie who had lost his temper in the middle of the night: "Is it Young Master Zhong?"

　　"No, the Young Master didn't come back today. It should be the second young master. Ouch, what time is it and you still go out?"

　　Zhong's family has a lot of things to do, and Xie Yu went out in the middle of the night. This situation is unprecedented. Several servants were wondering if there was a quarrel: "It was fine during the meal. "Yes, are you arguing again?"

　　"My wife recently wanted to give the second young master a tutor, but the second young master is not happy about it."

　　"The second young master's final results this time..."

　　A few small lights were on in the hall of the Zhong family, and there were a few mahogany trees in the hall. The cabinets and shelves are filled with antiques sourced from various places.

　　Several servants were talking quietly and were about to go back to their rooms when they were startled by Gu Xuelan.

　　Gu Xuelan was wearing a coat and looked a little sleepy. She stood at the door of the stairs, tugged on her coat that was sliding down, and asked, "What's going on?"

　　Gu Xuelan's sleep quality had not been very good these days. After hearing the whole story, she felt more and more headache. She raised her hand to press her forehead, digesting it. After a while, he said: "Okay, you guys go and have a rest."

　　Xie Yu has done a lot of things that have worried her in the past few years. Although he has his own ideas about many things, he will still consider her when he speaks and does things, no matter how impatient he is. When she asks questions, she will be informed when she goes out.

　　This unbelievable meekness revealed inadvertently often gave her the illusion...as if the person standing in front of her was the same Xie Yu who loved to pester her when she was a child.

　　After Gu Xuelan returned to her room, she couldn't sleep at all. She couldn't help but start thinking wildly. She suppressed her anger and called Xie Yu. She called Xie Yu several times but no one answered.

　　The fire in her chest was extinguished by these "The number you dialed is temporarily unavailable."

　　"Why," Zhong Guofei was half asleep and half awake when he realized that the sky was empty. When he opened his eyes, he saw Gu Xuelan, wearing thin clothes, sitting on the bed and staring at the phone in a daze, "...it's very late, why don't you sleep?"

　　Gu Xuelan was lying on the bed. After a while, he still couldn't sleep, so he stood up quietly and walked unconsciously to Xie Yu's room.

　　When he pushed open the bedroom door, he was stunned by what he did.

　　She never looks through Xie Yu's things.

　　Even though the conditions in Blackwater Street were not good before, the lock on the drawer of the second-hand desk was useless. When you open it, you can see the diary inside, and I never thought of peeking.

　　The quality education she received since childhood made her calm and restrained in these aspects.

　　But now -

　　Gu Xuelan said in her heart that she might do something outrageous in order to understand what Xie Yu was thinking.

　　Xie Yu's room was tidy. Gu Xuelan walked in and glanced at the tables, chairs, and computers, and finally stopped at the slightly messy quilt.

　　The cell phone was left next to the bed.

　　Gu Xuelan hesitated for a while, stretched out her hand, and then stopped.

　　Gu Xuelan sighed tiredly and was about to stop when the screen of her phone suddenly lit up.

　　-Boss Xie, after thinking about it these past few days, I think I still need to talk to your mother about this matter. It's not an option for you to keep pretending like this. How do you plan to prepare for the college entrance examination...

　　Zhou Dalei sat cross-legged on the sofa and finished his sentence with sincerity. After I closed the text message, I felt that I didn't say everything, so I lowered my head and continued typing on the phone screen.

　　——Lei Zai, who didn't like writing essays since he was a child, can write 800 fucking words for his brother.

　　I was moved by myself!

　　Zhou Dalei has been having a miserable time these past few days. He has such a big thing in his heart and is even distracted while playing games.

　　The day before yesterday, I went to Guangmao to help Aunt Mei unload the goods. I heard Aunt Mei talking over there: "Xiao Yu's grades are so bad, and he even dropped one place this time. It turns out that he is at the bottom of that grade. He is holding on to the bottom, why should he move forward? Fleeing..."

　　Halfway through Aunt Mei's words, he almost lost his grip on the box of goods in his hand.

　　Zhou Dalei finished typing with his head down and clicked send.

　　-We just have good grades! Whatever you want to hide, hide something, let that idiot named Zhong know the gap between people, let him know what it means to go to Tsinghua University and Peking University with your eyes closed!

　　-Xie

　　Yu still doesn't know what happened at home when he went out.

　　When he woke up in the morning, he was pressed down and fucked by He Chao. He could not avoid being drunk but could not avoid the morning erection. Yes, use your legs?"

　　Xie Yu wondered if this man had been thinking about trying this trick for a long time.

　　He Chao's movements were neither gentle nor heavy, and Xie Yu's red eyes were bitten so hard that he made a hissing sound. He grabbed the sheets under him and tasted a faint taste of blood in his mouth.

　　He Chao reached down with his hand and asked in a low voice: "How should I explain when I go back? Have you thought about it?"

　　Xie Yu licked the wound on the corner of his mouth and said, "Fight."

　　"Fight on the bed?"

　　"..."

　　Xie Yu didn't think about it. This time I didn't take it seriously when I stayed out all night, but as soon as I arrived at the door of Zhongzhai, before I changed my shoes, I saw that A Fang's expression was not right.

　　Ah Fang opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end she shook her head and said nothing.

　　Xie Yu followed her gaze to the living room and saw Ms. Gu sitting on the sofa - it was almost noon, and she was still wearing the same pajamas from last night.

　　Ms. Gu loves to take care of herself. Even if she doesn't go out, she can't stay at home dressed like this at noon.

　　Before Xie Yu said "Mom" out of his mouth, Gu Xuelan had already stood up.

　　Gu Xuelan's face looked very bad, her eyes were red and bloodshot. When she stood up, she was stiff and couldn't stand firmly without using her hands to support the back of the chair. Xie Yu's eyes touched the mobile phone she was holding tightly in her hand. Although he didn't know what happened, his heartbeat suddenly skipped a beat.

　　Then the phone screen lit up.

　　In the text message preview column, there were several text messages sent by Zhou Dalei.

　　Gu Xuelan asked him sternly, word by word, with an almost hoarse voice: "What is this - you speak, what is this!"
