Lewis and Ah Yu's apartment is a three-bedroom and two-living room house, the decoration is very simple, there is no particularly expensive and luxurious decoration in the whole house, and the wallpaper is not pasted, but it is very warm and clean by two people.

"Brother Ming, come on, Ah Yu is really bleeding today, I bought spicy crayfish. Lewis excitedly beckoned Fang Qingming to sit down.

Fang Qingming looked at the spicy meal on the table, frowning a little embarrassed.

Ah Yu suddenly sighed, he bit his lip, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Brother Ming, I forgot that you can't peel lobsters." But soon, he smiled again: "It's okay, I can peel it for you, I'm the best at peeling shrimp!"

After that, he quickly peeled a shrimp and dipped it in the sauce and sent it to Fang Qingming's mouth, Fang Qingming couldn't bear to live up to his kindness, so he opened his mouth and swallowed the shrimp meat, Ah Yu looked at Fang Qingming expectantly, and couldn't wait to chew it for Fang Qingming himself.

Fang Qingming resisted the urge to cough, smiled at Ah Yu, and said, "It's delicious." ”

Ah Yu happily peeled several more for Fang Qingming and put them in his bowl, and happily poured him a glass of Coke: "You taste it, I think the spicy crayfish with Coke is really delicious!"

Lewis on the side looked a little unbearable, he covered his mouth and coughed lightly, and poked Ah Yu's arm with his hand: "Help me get a tissue." ”

Ah Yu shook his arm impatiently: "Are you annoyed, you don't have long hands, take it yourself." ”

Lewis gritted his teeth, snorted, stood up and walked to the table to draw papers, one by one, as if he had a grudge against the tissue, and gritted his teeth.

Fang Qingming ran to the bathroom without eating a few bites, and vomited all the ones he ate, he was lying on the sink and coughing violently, the old wounds on his body were faintly painful, although the wounds were healed, but eating spicy things hurt so much that he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Brother Ming, how are you?" Lewis's worried voice came from outside the door.

"It's okay, it's just a little cough, it's old. Fang Qingming turned on the faucet, wiped the corners of his mouth, he patted his face with cold water, opened the door and walked out.

After eating, Ah Yu took Fang Qingming to one of the bedrooms, turned on the light, there was only one bed in the bedroom, but it was neatly covered with quilts, which was very clean and refreshing.

"Brother Ming, you can live here in the future, although it is a little simple, it is very quiet, very suitable for relaxation, and there is heating in winter, which is very convenient. ”

"Thank you. Fang Qingming nodded a little shyly: "If it weren't for you, I really don't know what to do." ”

"It's okay, but Brother Ming, what are you going to do in the future?" Ah Yu said worriedly: "You can't go to work anymore, so it's easy to be found." ”

"Hmm" Fang Qingming nodded: "I want to find a job as a translator or tutor on the Internet, some places are not particularly strictly supervised, and I should be able to use my real name." ”

"Well, that's fine, I was at a loss when I first arrived here, and then by chance, I applied for an author number on the book network, and wrote stories in it, fortunately, in just ten days, I accumulated a lot of readers, and then I became a contracted writer, and now I can earn tens of thousands of dollars a month at the highest time. ”

"What I wrote is what I experienced with Dumb, from middle school to university, and then to enter the imperial capital together, think about it carefully, I and Dumb have really known each other for more than ten years!" Ah Yu raised his head and thought about it, it turned out that he and Dumb had known each other for so long unconsciously, but it was a pity that he hadn't eaten it for so long, Ah Yu sighed regretfully.

At night, Fang Qingming was lying on his back on the bed, he had a dream, in the dream he returned to the dark basement, tied to the moldy bed, the terrifying man appeared at the door with a knife in his hand, the blade of the knife was dripping with blood, he walked towards himself step by step, laughing while walking, Fang Qingming was so frightened that his whole body trembled, the man walked to Fang Qingming's side, Fang Qingming saw a big hole in his forehead, blood was gurgling out, the man roared angrily: "Why did you kill me!" Then he raised his knife violently towards Fang Qingming······

"Don't!" Fang Qingming sat up suddenly, his clothes were already soaked, and his forehead was covered with sweat.

Fang Qingming's heart was beating like thunder, he looked around in horror, and only after making sure that he was safe did he breathe violently, his hand tightly covered the position of his heart, it had been more than half a month since that incident, but Fang Qingming still often dreamed that he was in that basement, and the dream was real every time Fang Qingming woke up, and every time he thought of that kind of frightened feeling, it would break down Fang Qingming's tortured spirit.

He had been in that basement for half a year, from early autumn to late winter, half a year of torture, almost every day he would be beaten and trampled, he lived in fear every day, he never slept peacefully, even if he closed his eyes, the slightest sound around him would wake him up. Not even a dog, until now the wounds on his body have not healed, the most serious thing is that his voice can no longer return to normal, the doctor said, his throat has been seriously damaged, maybe it will be like this in the future, the voice is hoarse and old, and it is no longer the clear voice it used to be.

Fang Qingming wrapped his head in the quilt and cried loudly, his voice was hoarse and ugly, he didn't know why he became like this, he had lost everything, why did God torture him so much?

When Fang Qingming woke up again, it was already noon the next day, his two eyes were red and swollen, Ah Yu had just come out of the bathroom, the bangs in front of his forehead were pinned with a hairpin, revealing a smooth forehead, and he was startled when he saw Fang Qingming: "Brother Ming, what's wrong with you? Are you crying?"

"It's fine, just had a nightmare yesterday. ”

Ah Yu immediately hugged Fang Qingming in his arms, stroked his back with one hand, and comforted: "Don't be afraid, with me in the future, no one will dare to bully you, ah" Ah Yu is also one meter seven or eight, and there is no sense of disobedience at all when he holds Fang Qingming.

Fang Qingming snorted and laughed, he hugged Ah Yu's back with his backhand, and whispered, "Thank you." ”

Ah Yu let go of Fang Qingming, scratched his head, and said embarrassedly, "Brother Ming, can you promise me one thing?"

"What's the matter?"

"Can you please stop robbing me of Dumb? I think he likes you a little. Ah Yu's big eyes sparkled, looking at Fang Qingming with anticipation.

Fang Qingming was stunned for a while, then suddenly realized what Ah Yu meant, and asked, "Do you like Dumb?" Then why didn't you tell him that you had been a good friend with him for so many years?"

Ah Yu's face turned red, he was hesitant, he was secretive, and finally his neck was horizontal, and he shouted: "I don't know how to say it, in fact, I haven't been in love yet!!!!"
