Surrounded

Chapter 6

"Are you ready?" Huai Xu folded his arms and shouted at the people in the cubicle.

Ye Shijian has been sitting quietly in the toilet for 10 minutes, and he is still a little suspicious of life at the moment.

"Did you fall into the pit?"

Ye Shijian clicked his tongue: "I can come out earlier if you don't speak."

Huai Xu smiled: "Is that why I stimulate you?"

Hold!Ye Shijian lowered his head to look at his unworthy little brother, and unexpectedly... unexpectedly reacted at such a time.Isn't it just a kiss and an arm around the waist, what's the big deal, as for being so hungry and thirsty!

right!It's all Huai Xu's fault!Sit on your lap, sit on your lap, twist and rub!And stick out your tongue!Is it necessary to be so realistic in acting?The movements are so skillful, he must be a habitual offender!Damn, looking pure and harmless, he is actually a veteran in love!Know people, know face, but not heart! ! !

But it's obviously fake, why is my heart so itchy...

It must be alcohol!It must be!No wonder I've been dizzy all the time, sure enough, I'm not talking about sex after drinking!

Ye Shijian struggled with his thoughts for a long time, trying to restrain the evil thoughts that gradually sprouted in him, until the little brother was no longer so energetic, he lifted his pants and opened the compartment door, feeling uncomfortable all over.Huai Xu was not in the bathroom, so he probably got impatient and went back first. Ye Shijian walked out after washing his hands, and just after turning the corner, he saw Huai Xu leaning against the wall smoking a cigarette, looking a little sluggish.

"You smoke?" Quite surprised.

"Occasionally," Huai Xu extinguished the cigarette on the white stone rice on top of the trash can, and gave him a meaningful look, "It's developing well."

Ye Shijian gritted his teeth: "Shut up!"

The two of them disappeared together for almost half an hour, maybe what others think, it is obviously not a wise decision to go back at this time.Moreover, Huai Xu was not interested in such a gathering, so he might as well go home early.

When passing by the entrance of KTV, a few policemen happened to come out. Ye Shijian took a quick glance and saw that they were acquaintances.

"Brother Li." Ye Shijian called out.

"Xiaojian, come to play?" Li Fei and Lao Yang were in the same police station, and they were considered as half of Lao Yang's apprentices, and they always looked old-fashioned in their twenties.

Ye Shijian hummed and said, "I just sang, what are you doing here?"

"Routine inspection." Li Fei frowned, putting on a serious expression when encountering a major event, "Go home early, and don't come to this kind of place recently."

It seems that it is not as simple as a routine inspection, Ye Shijian was not interested and just nodded in understanding: "Got it, then I'm leaving."

"Well," Li Fei suddenly stopped him, "How is Lao Yang?"

"Body?" Ye Shijian was taken aback.

"I've been on sick leave for the past few days. Let's go see him, but he still disagrees. What's wrong with me?" Li Fei asked.

Didn't Lao Yang go on a business trip?Why lie about sick leave?Why hide it from your colleagues?Ye Shijian didn't understand, but Lao Yang must have his reasons for doing so.

"It's nothing." Ye Shijian cleared his throat, and said nonsense, "Hemorrhoid surgery, I'm sorry to say."

"I mean," Li Fei laughed, "I'll send Ma Yinglong to him later."

The milk tea shop at the entrance on the first floor was crowded with people in twos and threes. Ye Shijian stretched his neck and took a few glances inside, then took out his pocket and asked Huai Xu: "Have you brought any money?" Huai Xu looked at the various milk teas Shaking his head, before he could say anything, Ye Shijian pulled him over.

"Sister You!"

Behind the narrow and narrow counter stood four busy clerks. One of them was a girl with blond hair, who looked particularly good-looking. There was a string of letters tattooed just right on her wrist. As she moved the glass up and down, she heard voices Raising his head, an unexpected smile suddenly appeared on his serious face, and his voice was sweet: "Xiaoye, long time no see."

There are quite a lot of acquaintances, and when Huai Xu was about to speak, Ye Shijian blocked him back, and he said, "Find a seat and wait for me, and I'll chat with Sister You for a while."

The milk tea shop is quite big, Huai Xu found a corner to sit down, the wall on the right was covered with post-it notes and photos, the wishing wall seemed to become a confession wall, and among those grotesque photos, Huai Xu saw Ye Shi See.

Those who laugh, those who are depressed, those who bow their heads and make milk tea seriously... and those who are now chatting with a group of girls in full swing!

After a few more minutes, Ye Adou walked over slowly, with an extra cup of yellow and white milk tea in his hand: "Here, here you are."

Huai Xu frowned at the milk tea that was exactly the same as that in Wu Xue's hand just now, and refused, "I won't drink it."

"Why don't you drink it?" Ye Shijian sat across from him, "I sacrificed my appearance in exchange for it!"

"I'm allergic to mangoes." Huai Xu said with watery eyes.

"It's a thing." It's not good to waste. Ye Shijian took a sip from the straw and licked his lips contentedly, "It's delicious, but this thing is too fleshy. I worked here for a month during the summer vacation and gained weight." Five catties."

No wonder there are so many photos, Huai Xu smiled: "So you want to make me gain weight too?" Ye Shijian paused, rolled his eyes and grieved: "You really have no conscience, besides, you are so thin, you sat on me just now. When on the legs..."

——I still feel panicked.

Damn, why are you sitting on your lap!Ye Shijian pinched his thigh in frustration, then picked up the milk tea and took a sip, and walked out quickly without looking back. Looking at the back of this fleeing figure, Huai Xu couldn't help laughing again.

Lao Yang’s food was exhausted, and Ye Shijian usually didn’t spend much time at home alone, either at school or outside. If there was a famine at home, he would basically eat a bowl of instant noodles.

"Don't eat instant noodles," Huai Xu disliked, "it's not healthy."

orphan?vagabond?Which beggar is picky eater? ?

Ye Shijian gulped down his throat and took out a crumpled exercise book from the belly of the coffee table. On the cover of the bulging book, the words "Yang's Food Award" were written in a pen. It's just that the writing is a little sloppy and perfunctory, and it doesn't look good.

"Fortunately, there is a family heirloom," Ye Shijian patted the dust on the cover, flipped through it and said, "When I first came here, I couldn't get used to Lao Yang's cooking, and his old bachelor never took care of anyone. Later, I began to watch food programs on TV, learn how to cook, and when I saw recipes in newspapers and magazines, I cut them out and pasted them in this booklet, and made them for me.”

"How are you doing?" Huai Xu asked curiously.

"Hiss..." Ye Shijian gasped, held up the brochure and gave a thumbs up to his chest, "You may not believe me, but the first time I was hospitalized was the book "The Encyclopedia of Yang Family" bestowed."

Huai Xu burst out laughing, feeling a little sad, and Ye Shijian continued without raising his head: "But it was fine after that, I don't know if Lao Yang's cooking skills have improved, or I have developed antibodies."

"Uncle Yang is very kind to you." Huai Xu seemed thoughtful, his eyes were not focused.

The booklet was stained with oil stains, and the pages were uneven. Lao Yang had no way of knowing how many times he had read it back and forth, but the love he had for Ye Shijian was vividly displayed in front of his eyes. Do everything.

Ye Shijian is a careless person but has always had a strong emotional perception ability. He could see Huai Xu's loss, but he didn't know how to comfort a person. In the end, he just closed the booklet and threw it back, slumped on the sofa and complained: What kind of bad recipe, there is no less than two side dishes and three seasonings, forget it, go out and eat."

As soon as the door opened, he saw his neighbor Xia Jun standing outside dragging three large bowls on an enamel tea tray, and was about to bang his head on the door.

"Scared me, luckily I caught up." Xia Jun is one year older than Ye Shijian, and just started college, but he got burned after not seeing him for a month!He pushed the two teenagers away and got into the room, put the tea tray on the table, rubbed his arms and greeted them, "I knew that you would starve to death when Uncle Yang was on a business trip. My mother made a little more today, which is enough for the two of you." .”

"Thank you brother, you are so cute and timely." Ye Shijian went back to the kitchen and brought out a few bowls, still staring at his curly hair, "Brother, is college fun?"

"It's okay, no one cares about it anyway, you're very free." Xia Jun looked at him, "You're already in the third year of high school, have you decided which university to go to? Uncle Yang still won't let you go to the police academy?"

"Well," Ye Shijian paused, "I didn't think about going to other schools other than the police school, so let's take it one step at a time. I know that Lao Yang is good for me, but he won't stop me from doing anything I really want to do." on."

Xia Jun took the vacated bowl: "You have good grades, what school do you want to pass? Talk to Uncle Yang, you want to grow up." Xia Jun went back with the plate, Ye Shi saw it Appetite has been reduced by more than half.

The darkness in October came earlier, and the beer taken out of the refrigerator felt a little chilly in his throat. Ye Shi saw that the food hadn't touched a few sips, and two cans of wine had already gone down. Huai Xu was willing to cooperate with his silence, Gu Zi watched the same level-breaking programs on TV.

"I drank a lot today," Ye Shijian counted on his fingers, "beer, milk tea, beer..."

Huai Xu moved the remaining few cans away: "Well, then don't drink it."

"Milk tea is too full," Ye Shijian hiccupped, "By the way, I'll go to a milk tea shop to work part-time the day after tomorrow, so I'll tell you."

"Okay," Huai Xu replied, "Do you always look for part-time jobs during the holidays?"

Ye Shijian stretched his waist and said, "Almost, look at the mess in my house, basketball, football, skateboard, guitar, I'm passionate about doing things for 3 minutes, but I can't spend Lao Yang's money, right?" , and when I go to college, I want to support myself and Lao Yang.”

"Uncle Yang, with you..." Huai Xu didn't know whether to ask, but finally asked, "What's the relationship?"

"What do you want to ask, I'm so entangled." Ye Shijian closed his eyes and squeezed the center of his brows, his voice was much lower, "Lao Yang and my father are colleagues, both are anti-drug policemen, my father is an undercover agent, and Lao Yang is an anti-drug police officer." His contact person, they solved a major case many years ago, but my dad’s undercover identity was also exposed, followed by the crazy revenge of the drug trafficking organization. A car accident, my dad, my mom, and my brother , all died, I was attending summer camp at that time and escaped unharmed.”

Ye Shijian leaned his head on the back of the chair, his voice choked with sobs: "Old Yang thought he was the one who harmed our family, so he took the blame and retired, and went back to his hometown to become a policeman. Actually, what does this have to do with him? Drug dealers."

Huai Xu poured a glass of water and pushed it in front of him, saying, "So you also want to be a policeman, just like your father, but Uncle Yang is worried about you, afraid that you will repeat the same mistakes."

"Yeah," Ye Shijian opened his eyes and let out a long breath, "Actually, when I was young, my dream was to be a painter. If I couldn't be a painter, I would be an art teacher. If I couldn't be an art teacher, I would go to the square to draw sketches for people. Mom loves painting. But my dad always thinks that boys should be tougher, just like my brother. When my brother died, he was 20 years old, a sophomore in the police academy, and the best student in the school."

After drinking, he talked a lot. Ye Shijian didn't tell others about it, and he wouldn't mention it in front of Lao Yang, because it was also Lao Yang's scar, and it was also his guilt; he wouldn't tell his classmates and friends either. , he doesn't need to be sympathetic prying eyes of anyone.But Huai Xu is different, he has no past, and he has no fear of the future.

"Living an ordinary life is sometimes a dream," Huai Xu looked at him and said, "Will Uncle Yang agree?"

"Yes." Ye Shijian said firmly, "Do you know what it was like when I first met Lao Yang?"

Ye Shijian sat up straight, as if he was going to tell a long and long story. He said: "When my parents passed away, I was taken to my uncle's house. Do you understand what it's like to live under the fence? My uncle is very cowardly. My aunt was very domineering, and my cousin often bullied me, and even let me sleep on the bare floor at night. I was only 11 years old at the time, and I was not stingy, but I knew I was a burden, and I didn’t want to embarrass my uncle. I didn’t dare to cry or laugh, until one time, my cousin made fun of my family, I finally broke out, we had a fight, he was a few years older than me, I couldn’t beat him, he kicked me down the stairs, and Good luck, only to get bruises and a dislocated wrist."

Huai Xu opened a can of beer and drank a few sips, his eyes were cold, as if he was trying to restrain himself, but he couldn't help thinking about it, how could Lao Yang's dishes be so unpalatable that he could take a person from the stairs? Those who rolled down intact were eaten alive and were sent to the hospital.

"My cousin is not much better. I hit my head against the wall and said it was a concussion. My aunt couldn't tolerate me anymore, and my uncle didn't dare to say anything." Ye Shijian smiled wryly, "As a result, that night, I I remember it was 11 o'clock in the night, it was raining outside, and Lao Yang rushed to City H in a raincoat. The first thing he said when he saw me was, "Boy, next time you fight with someone, break his little finger and kick him, and after the fight, just break it." run!'"

Ye Shijian said it very easily, as if that matter had nothing to do with him, if he hadn't said it himself, no one would believe that there was such a gloomy time behind such a sunny boy.

"See you at Ye Shi." Huai Xu called him.

"En." Ye Shijian responded unresponsively, the alcohol seemed to surge up, and his head was a little dizzy.

After a long time, when Ye Shijian was about to fall asleep, Huai Xu's soft voice sounded again: "It would be great if I met you sooner. I'll take you to wander, so you won't be alone."

The incandescent light flickered, and it seemed that it was going to rain outside.

Ye Shijian leaned forward with drooping eyelashes, his thin eyelids blinked lightly, his cheeks and ears were all red.

"Huai Xu, I seem to be drunk." He said, "I want to kiss you."
