Chapter 219: The Welfare Home That Year

The target is named Xu Yan.

To say that Yu Zhe and this person have known each other more than ten years ago.

That year, he was forced to live in a welfare home, and due to the psychological blow, he was unable to interact with people normally, and it was also because of such a personality and unimaginable horror that all the adoptive families avoided him.

Yu Zhe lived alone in the welfare home for a long time, and his situation never improved, and even children of the same age became more and more afraid of him, and would vacate the bed next to him when he slept at night.

It wasn't until a year later that Xu Yan also came here.

At first, everyone thought that he was the same as Yu Zhe, and his face seemed to say "Don't enter if you are alive", because he was a few months younger, and the children would jokingly call him "Little Yu Zhe" behind his back.

At first, he didn't care about this, thinking that nothing would change, but after a few days, he found that this child named Xu Yan always appeared by his side, and after a long time, he became the only person in the entire welfare home who was willing to talk to him.

Although he rarely replied, he slowly learned that the other party seemed to have lost his parents in an accident, and his mood was exactly the same as his, and he gradually had a kind of sympathetic feelings.

However, unlike him, Xu Yan's adaptability is very strong, and in less than two months, his personality became cheerful, and he gradually integrated into the small circle of other children, and his evaluation in the mouths of adults became better and better, and he became the most popular child in the entire welfare home.

But in fact, Xu Yan actually didn't forget Yu Zhe, while other people had a good relationship, they would come to chat with Yu Zhe every once in a while, even if they were ignored, they were never annoyed, they just stood next to them and talked to themselves.

Yu Zhe doesn't like such people, but he doesn't hate them either.

It's just that such days didn't last long, and two or three years later, Xu Yan was adopted by a family and has not been heard from since.

Yu Zhe has changed back to being alone, but he doesn't feel anything about it, he didn't take it seriously from the beginning, and it doesn't matter if he loses it.

A few years later, just a few days before Yu Zhe left the welfare home, he received a letter from Xu Yan, which first congratulated him on his "escape from the sea of suffering", and then said that he had gone to L City to work hard, and if Yu Zhe wanted to, he could come and live together, and at the end of the letter, it was the address of L City.

Yu Zhe directly threw away the letter and started his life alone.

didn't expect that after such a long time, the two would meet again, but he didn't come to catch up.

He looked at Xu Yan, who had just walked by, and was talking and laughing with the owner of the breakfast stall at this time, looking very familiar, and it didn't take long for him to find a table close to him and sit down with breakfast, but the two of them were facing different directions, which was a back-to-back angle.

Yu Zhe looked around again, there were already a lot of people on the street at this time, and there were a lot of surveillance nearby, so it was almost impossible to do it.

Fortunately, there is still a long time, and he has already found the target, so he just needs to follow up for a while to find the right time to start.

Xu Yan still didn't notice Yu Zhe, and after eating breakfast slowly, he began to wander the streets, and he couldn't see where the destination was, so he greeted people when he met them, and the group of people seemed to know him, and they all replied with a smile.

Looking at the other party's current appearance, there is still a shadow of the past, but it still makes Yu Zhe feel unfamiliar, what has happened in the past few years, so that this "good person" in everyone's eyes has caused death.

Tracking all the way, he is not afraid of being discovered, after all, he is just looking for a suitable opportunity to start now, and being noticed will only increase the other party's fear, and he may also show flaws in advance, or run to a position with fewer people, so that he can complete the task in advance.

Half a day passed in a blink of an eye, but there was still no suitable time, Xu Yan saw Yu Zhe several times halfway, but he only glanced at it in a hurry and didn't care much.

Yu Zhe thought that this kind of thing was in a hurry, it was a big deal to wait until the evening, Xu Yan would always have to go home, and when the night was dark and windy, there would be no danger of being discovered.

Just thinking about it, suddenly he felt that something was wrong, from the beginning, the other party turned back more and more frequently, although it seemed that he didn't seem to notice anything, but his pace slowed down.

This doesn't make sense, it is said that if you are found to be tracking, shouldn't you speed up your pace and leave quickly, why is the other party walking slower and slower.

Before he could figure out a reason, Xu Yan suddenly turned around, walked over quickly, and wanted to grab Yu Zhe, but he dodged and dodged him, and the other party had to give up and stand directly opposite him, restraining the expression on his face.

"You!it's Yu Zhe, right?!" Xu Yan's voice was full of excitement, but he still pretended to be calm before getting an answer.

Yu Zhe thought about how to answer, he didn't expect the other party to recall him, it was not enough to admit it at this time, it was harmless, pretending to come to see the other party on purpose, and slowly leading it to the path where there was no one, it was also a good choice, thinking about it and nodded.

"Sure enough, it's you!I almost didn't recognize it!" Seeing the affirmative answer, the smile on Xu Yan's face immediately bloomed, and he stretched out his hand to pull this Yu Zhe, but this time he was not dodged, "Why did you come here? You have been following me and don't call me, I thought I was being followed by someone, you wouldn't not know me, right? I'm Xu Yan." ”

"Of course I remember you. Yu Zhe put on a smiling face, although he was very uncomfortable with being pulled, but he was afraid of being suspected by the other party, so he still endured it, "I happened to pass by L City, remembered your letter back then, and specially wanted to come to see you, I thought you had moved away a long time ago, and I just wanted to knock on the door to ask about the situation, but I didn't expect to meet you on the street." ”

"Then why don't you call me, I'm quite scared. Xu Yan asked deliberately with a smile on his face, pretending to be angry in his tone.

"I want to see, Xu Yan, when will you remember me. Yu Zhe immediately made up a reason, and said like a joke among ordinary friends, "It took you so long to think of me, and you thought that you had soared and forgotten about our poor friends in the welfare home." ”

"Don't make fun of me, where did you come from, I'm just an idle person in society, but you have changed a lot over the years, the whole person is not as gloomy as it was back then, you must be doing well, I don't know where to be on an errand now?"

"Like you, I'm just running around to make a little money. Yu Zhe politely said a few words, and suddenly changed the topic, and turned the topic back to just now, he felt that he could put something out of Xu Yan's mouth, "But you just said that I followed you and scared you?

Yu Zhe pretended to have a wicked smile, and his tone seemed careless, of course he knew that the other party must have done something terrible, otherwise he would not have been killed for no reason, he just wanted to see how the other party would react when he was blown up by such a sentence.

"I just said casually, why are you still serious. Xu Yan didn't explain, but immediately changed the topic and said, "Let's not stand on the street all the time, let's find a place to catch up on the old days!"

Yu Zhe agreed, thinking that Xu Yan would take him home directly, and thought that the task would be over soon, but he didn't think that the other party would directly take him into a restaurant, which was full of people, and he really had to wait......

The two of them found a corner slightly inward, and before they could sit down, Xu Yan beckoned the boss to bring the menu, and ordered seven or eight dishes, plus six bottles of beer.

The shopkeeper seemed to be an acquaintance of his, with a smile on his face, and after a while, he served all the dishes, and even sent a few more bottles of beer, muttering something like "I am usually taken care of", because the surrounding environment was too noisy, and the other party's voice was quiet, and he didn't hear what he said clearly.

The two didn't get to the point directly, persuaded each other to drink, and after a while, their first bottle of beer had bottomed out, Xu Yan looked overwhelmed by alcohol, and his face was already red, but Yu Zhe passed through the few glasses of spirits in Lanxi Bay yesterday, and now this bit of beer is like boiled water to him, and it is not a problem to even have two bottles.

"You haven't moved for more than ten years, and now you still live with your adoptive parents?" Yu Zhe tried to arouse the topic, anyway, he can't do it now, it's better to ask a few more words, and see if he can get some clues from the other party's mouth.

"My adoptive parents have long since passed away, and now I'm alone. ”

"I'm sorry. ”

"It's nothing, they've been dead for many years. ”

Xu Yan replied with a smile and didn't seem to care.

"So what have you been all these years...... How did you get by?"

"I'm used to living alone, and now it's a 'hundred family meals'. After speaking, Xu Yan laughed, opened another bottle of wine, and poured half a bottle of wine, "Don't talk about me, you didn't come to me back then, where are you going now?"

"Now I live in a low-rent house in a welfare house for a few days, and then I saved some money to settle down elsewhere and do some ...... Small business, barely make ends meet. ”

Yu Zhe took a sip of wine, although he was not drunk, he didn't plan to drink more, and looked at Xu Yan's reaction and expression as he spoke, hoping to interpret something from it.

"Don't lie to me, you may not know, but I see that your changes are really big, you definitely made a windfall, it seems that we haven't seen each other for all these years, and we have a lot of feelings, and you don't want to tell the truth. ”

Xu Yan retorted while drinking, as if he didn't care that he would get drunk.

"I'm telling the truth, I'm going to talk about how I'm changing...... Probably because I've learned a little about people over the years. Yu Zhe looked innocent, knowing that he was lying, but what he said seemed to be true.

"No way! I've met so many people over the years, and I can see the difference. Xu Yan said firmly, "If it weren't for smooth sailing in his career...... That's love, isn't it?"

This sentence is in one sentence, Yu Zhe didn't open his mouth to answer, but the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, but it was this subtle expression that Xu Yan captured.

"Aha! I know! Tell me quickly, where did you see the girl? What has it been?" Xu Yan showed a gossipy look and asked a long list of questions, seeing that Yu Zhe didn't want to answer, he had to smile self-deprecatingly, "The girl who can be identified by you is probably a fairy who has captivated the country and the city, judging from your character, she will definitely be able to spoil people to the sky." ”

"yes. Yu Zhe also smiled, drank all the wine in the cup, and stared at Xu Yan for a long time before sighing and slowly continuing, "I can do it for her...... Do anything. ”
