Chapter 44 - The Past (I)

"I ......"

Lin Xiaowen looked at Cheng Yishu, who was close at hand, suppressed his breath, staring at himself like a torch, and when he was in the parking lot in the afternoon, that strong uneasiness surged out again!

"I ...... I just told Aunt Xu, let's talk about it, I don't have the time and energy to talk about those ...... now."

Lin Xiaowen swallowed his saliva, squeezing out this sentence with difficulty, and at the same time despised himself in his heart, why was he a little in a hurry?

Cheng Yishu is not his own, why should he care if he is blind date?

What's more, in front of him, he really looks like a slave who does things!

Crazy yourself?

Thinking through the joints, Lin Xiaowen raised his head, thinking that he must get back a city!

But when he looked at Cheng Yishu again, Cheng Yishu had already changed as if he were a different person, hanging his head and staring at his own toes......

If two people are judged before and after, do the actors change their expressions so quickly?

"You...... What's wrong?"

Lin Xiaowen sighed in his heart, thinking that he was useless enough, and he obviously wanted to ask the teacher for his guilt, but looking at his injured appearance, he ran away from the clouds all at once!

In the small living room, the silence is a little erratic!

But Lin Xiaowen didn't speak, because she could see that Cheng Yishu was real, a little different from usual, so she didn't bother him......

The two of them sat there quietly, as if it had been a long time, and Cheng Yishu exhaled deeply as if he was sighing......

"Ran Ran is a girl, and she is still so young, if you want to find someone to organize a family, don't ignore Ran Ran's feelings......"

Cheng Yishu raised his eyes to look at Lin Xiaowen beside him, Lin Xiaowen's heart moved, a little overwhelmed, and she didn't know what to answer him, so she heard Cheng Yishu speak slowly and continued

"Do you know why I like Ran Ran so much? Actually, I don't like children at all, really...... I've always thought that children are very troublesome! Girls are squeamish, boys are naughty, and I once thought that I would never have children when I got married......"

Lin Xiaowen smiled slightly and said softly

"But you don't look like it at all!"

"Hehe......"

Cheng Yishu also laughed, "Yes, in front of Ran Ran, it seems that none of my thoughts have been counted!"

After a pause, Cheng Yishu smiled and said

"I'm a kid who grew up in that kind of family, so sometimes I can relate to Ranran's mood, especially tonight......"

"That's ...... family?" Lin Xiaowen's heart skipped a slight beat, and he asked lightly!

"Hmmm......"

Cheng Yishu stood up and walked to the only small window in the small living room, the lights outside the window were dim and warm, which was the color of all happy families!

Unlike myself, even if I live in the most upscale apartment in the so-called 'rich area', no matter how luxuriously decorated and how big the room is, it is like being in a cold crystal palace, and there is no temperature in the world at all......

Of course, Cheng Yishu didn't say it, he knew that once he said it, Lin Xiaowen would definitely scold him for being hypocritical and give him a big roll of his eyes......

Thinking of this, Cheng Yishu, who was looking at the street scene outside the window, suddenly laughed, he seemed to know Lin Xiaowen very well?

But when did it start?

"Laughing at what?"

Lin Xiaowen didn't know when he appeared behind him, seeing his strange laughter, he couldn't help but ask!

"It's nothing, I just think it's very comfortable here, it's very similar to my home!"

"Your home?"

"Well, the previous home!" Cheng Yishu nodded and continued

"I lived with my mother until I was 8 years old, I didn't see my father, I didn't see other relatives on my father's side, I took my mother's surname ......"

Hearing this, Lin Xiaowen's heart chuckled, and at the same time, he couldn't help mentioning it, and his eyebrows were slightly twisted together......

"My mother treats me very well, she always says that I am her only hope, and she is willing to endure all the hardships for me and give me all her love......"

Cheng Yishu smiled slightly, it was the kind of gentleness and satisfaction that Lin Xiaowen had never seen, as if he was immersed in the sweet spring breeze, and his eyebrows and eyes were full of attachment......

"It wasn't until that man appeared that everything started to look different!"

Cheng Yishu's tone seemed to be helpless, but more mocking, and continued

"I remember that it was also a grandmother who brought a very tall and very gentle man into my house! Everyone was laughing, but I didn't understand what it was about, and when I went to see my mother's face, I only felt that she was looking at me with a red face and moist eyes...... Now that I think about it, she was also very conflicted!"

Lin Xiaowen was speechless for a while, because she was also a single mother, she knew too well the difficulties of Cheng Yishu's mother, and how much courage and mental construction it took to take that step, so she could only listen quietly to him continue to tell the past......

"In the days that followed, the family seemed to have really changed a lot because of that 'uncle'! the food on the table improved, the clothes were new to wear, and the smile on my mother's face gradually increased...... It all seemed to be on a good trajectory, and I began to slowly accept that 'uncle' until one day......"

"He is a teacher, teaching physical education, but he has a problem with alcoholism, at first he didn't drink a lot, and when he was drunk, he just fell asleep, but then he began to drink more and more, scolding, playing drunk, and even doing something to my mother, at that time I was already in elementary school, he dared to beat my mother, I naturally couldn't care, so I picked up what I had at hand and went to fight with him...... In the end, it was his beating that my mother couldn't stop crying and screaming, and it was not an exaggeration to call it hell on earth in my heart at the time......"

"That'...... Why don't you part with that man?" Lin Xiaowen asked in a voice like a mosquito, his eyes distressed, and gently stroked Cheng Yishu's frowning brows!

"I also asked my mom why she didn't let him go, this is our home...... But she just shook her head silently and shed tears, and kept flowing...... I also wondered why she had so many tears, as if she would never end her life!"

"Later, I just endured and lived carefully, of course, sometimes I still had to be beaten, hehe......"

"Until I was in high school, he dared to slap me, but I was no longer the kid who was much shorter than him, so while protecting my mother, I chose to resist, and that time I vented all my anger over the years...... My mom was terrified, and if she hadn't stopped her, you probably wouldn't have seen me now...... Either the death penalty for intentional homicide or the imprisonment!"

Speaking of this, Cheng Yishu deliberately looked at Lin Xiaowen in a brisk tone and smiled!

Lin Xiaowen couldn't laugh, he looked up to meet the eyes that pretended to be relaxed, but were full of gloom for a long time, and his heart suddenly ached!
