Family?

It's not actually a home, it's just a basement that can shelter from the wind and rain, but the air is damp and moldy-

The air is filled with the pungent smell of perfume, mixed with the smell of some cheap instant foods such as bread and instant noodles;

The sanitation is fairly clean, but those revealing and beautiful clothes are thrown everywhere......

Can this be considered a home?

Absolutely not!

Because it does not have the warmth and comfort of home, only the coldness and loneliness of the world, even if it is decorated like a "home", it still can't hide the bitterness of loneliness.

This basement is Xiaohong's "home", and the only place in it that can be called comfortable is a bed that can barely squeeze two people -

The bed is made of wood, with a pink mosquito net, and the smell of laundry detergent on the red futon is the only fragrance that makes people feel fresh here.

Liu Yanbo is now lying on this bed, quietly smoking a cigarette -

This basement made him a little confused.

For a long time, Liu Yanbo also lived in a similar, even inferior, environment, in the darkest corners of many cities.

What was he then?

Gray rats?

Cockroach?

Liu Yanbo suddenly snuffed out the cigarette that was still half left, because he suddenly felt a little disgusted, and this disgust was not because of the smell mixed in this basement, nor because he discriminated against Xiaohong, who lived here, but because of himself.

Liu Yanbo suddenly felt that he had changed, as if he could no longer get used to the life he had been, and this was what made him feel disgusting, because-

To deny the past is to deny oneself.

Vomit~

Liu Yanbo began to retch, his whole body trembled violently like a swing, his nose and tears flowed, and his hands kept scratching his body......

Bang dang~

Xiaohong, who was in the bathroom, hurriedly ran out after hearing a loud noise, and saw Liu Yanbo rolling on the ground in pain, she had encountered this situation many times in this basement, so she was quite calm.

She ran over to help Liu Yanbo up, and asked a little knowingly, "What's wrong with you?"

"Powder, powder..."Liu Yanbo hissed, "Is there any powder? Give me powder." ”

"Yes, yes, I'll get it for you. ”

After Xiaohong finished speaking, she ran into the bathroom again, came out with a thermos cup in her hand, and then she took out a small packet of white "powder" from it.

When Liu Yanbo saw the powder in Xiaohong's hand, he threw himself at her like crazy......

Everything returned to calm, Liu Yanbo lazily lay on the bed again, and Xiaohong was lying on top of him in a sexy and sultry black silk pajamas, and said coquettishly: "I didn't expect you to be a fellow believer." ”

Liu Yanbo lit a cigarette and said dissatisfiedly: "Your goods are too inferior, what, I'm afraid that I won't be able to pay the money, so you deliberately fool me with defective products?"

"What's the matter, how could I fool you?" Xiaohong defended, "We have all the goods here like this, even if you have money, you can't buy a second kind of goods." ”

Hearing this, Liu Yanbo was even more dissatisfied, and muttered: "In the territory of Nanzhao Province, you can't buy good goods even if you have money, you are my three-year-old child?"

After speaking, he pinched Xiaohong's body and said with a wicked smile: "If you don't give me a good reason today, see how I clean you up later." ”

"Nasty~"

Xiaohong lightly hammered Liu Yanbo twice on the chest, smiled more coquettishly, and said after a while: "There must be a reason, but I told you, you can't say it." ”

"I swear, if I say it, I'll die in your bed. Liu Yanbo laughed.

"You're really annoying~"

The two frolicked for a while, and then Xiaohong panted and said, "Let me tell you, the good goods we have here that come in from abroad are monopolized, but those who engage in monopoly are not willing to sell to locals." So now the goods we have here are all secretly brought in by some peddlers from other provinces, and in order to increase profits, the proportion of their natural adulteration is much higher, and you say that there are still good goods to sell to us. ”

"Who is so good, can still monopolize the supply of goods abroad, and refuse to sell to you locals, and he doesn't make any money, is he a stupid fork?" Liu Yanbo shouted, revealing a look of self-respect. "It's also a bad thing for Lao Tzu to use such bad goods, you tell me who he is, Lao Tzu has to use money to stone him to death. ”

Cluck~

Xiao Hongjiao smiled: "Look at what you can, and use money to stone people to death." ”

Liu Yanbo's eyes were horizontal, like a big rooster trying to maintain his dignity in front of an old hen, and said with a heavy face: "You don't believe it?"

"I believe it, I believe it. "Xiaohong's smile is really professional and has always been the same. "I also want you to stone him to death with money, but unfortunately I don't know who he is. ”

"Little red beauty, are you deliberately tricking me tonight?" Liu Yanbo's hand began to play tricks again.

"Don't scratch, I'm really afraid of itching. Xiaohong giggled and said, "I really don't know who it is, I also heard my cousin say that a person called "Cave Master" monopolized those good goods from abroad. My cousin used to be a trader, but he didn't know who the cave owner was, but he said that the people in the Galu Mountain Forest Farm were all the cave owner's men, and that the forest farm was their transit point. “

"Little handsome guy, are you going to take the money to stone them to death now?"

"What are you going to do now!" Liu Yanbo sneered again: "I'm going to stone you to death tonight." ”

“......”

Xiaohong didn't speak again, she suddenly took the initiative to kiss Liu Yanbo's lips, and began to unbutton his clothes with both hands. The latter was not idle, his right hand slid slowly down her hair, and finally landed on her neck, and then pressed it gently—

Thousands of people, thousands of faces, he is really good at acting.

Liu Yanbo took out all the thousands of yuan in cash on his body and put it on the bedside, anyway, the money was Zhao Li's, and he really didn't feel distressed when he spent it.

Before leaving, Liu Yanbo also gently covered Xiaohong with the quilt, he didn't look down on her, because they are the same kind of people from a certain point of view, the same loneliness, the same succumb to fate, but-

He had a choice, and she had no choice.

......

It was late at night, and the occasional mountain breeze blew, blowing up dust and confetti on the streets, making it even more desolate and lonely.

Liu Yanbo was walking alone on the street, and there was no trace of the unruly wandering of the disciples before, nor the joy of hearing the news, he just suddenly wanted to call Yin Hanruo.

After the phone was connected, Yin Hanruo's somewhat sleepy voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hey!"

Liu Yanbo didn't speak, just quietly listened to her breathing.

"Liu Yanbo, what's wrong with you, why don't you speak?" Yin Hanruo wondered.

After a long time, Liu Yanbo suddenly had a different smile on his face, looking very warm and satisfied, just like the sunshine in March, he smiled faintly: "Not much, I just want to hear your voice." ”
