November 5, 1993, Harbin City, Changchang University.

Guan Yuan stood at the door of the library, gathered the cotton clothes on his body, shrunk his neck and let out a sigh, the water vapor quickly condensed into a white mist, thinking of the school's allocation list, Guan Yuan couldn't help but be overjoyed, in the school in the past few years, he worked hard to maintain a relationship with the school leaders, and finally won a place allocated to the city government.

Just as I was thinking about it, I was tapped on the shoulder.

"What do you think, boy? I just saw your brother at the school gate, go and have a look! This is the boss of their dormitory, Guan Yuan thanked Lao Dao and hurriedly walked towards the school gate.

Seeing the familiar figure of army green from afar, Guan Yuan quickened his pace.

"Brother!"

"Ah Yuan!" Zhao Shenggu saw Guan Yuan's figure and waved his hand.

Guan Yuan ran to Zhao Shenggu's side, looked at Zhao Shenggu's torn coat and cloth shoes that were wet with moisture, and frowned distressedly: "Why are you here again, it's so cold now, didn't I say you don't have to run?" ”

Zhao Shenggu has tall bones, but his face is covered with wind and frost due to years of hard work. Hearing Guan Yuan's complaints, Zhao Shenggu looked at the somewhat fierce face with a doting smile.

"Your brother is in good health, he can take a car from Tunli to here, and he can't freeze." After speaking, he carefully looked at Guan Yuan's whole body, and nodded with satisfaction when he found that he was not thin.

Zhao Shenggu then took out more than 200 yuan from his pocket, and one yuan and two yuan were neatly folded and wrapped in cloth. "Come, Xiaoyuan, you can use this money first, buy some clothes, it's too cold, your body is weak and you can't help freezing, don't be hungry, eat when you need to, brother will support you!"

Guan Yuan looked at the fragmentary gross tickets in Zhao Shenggu's frostbite-covered hands, and his heart hurt as if he had been pricked by a needle. These money must have been saved by Zhao Shenggu's frugality.

Guan Yuan forced tears back into his eyes, "Brother, I said that I am now in the school to help professors do projects, and I will be paid, you don't have to take money, you see how thin you have become!" ”

Zhao Shenggu's eyes were deep and sunken, his bones were protruding, and his face was vegetable, and he looked overworked.

"That's my physique, I can't get fat. Take it, I'm going back to work. Without waiting for Guan Yuan to refuse, Zhao Shenggu stuffed the money into his pocket.

Guan Yuan knew that he couldn't resist Zhao Shenggu, so he didn't take out the money again, and told Zhao Shenggu the news that he was assigned to the city.

After Zhao Shenggu heard this, he really looked ecstatic: "Really, Xiaoyuan, you are too capable, now you can also eat commercial grain!" I'll just say that my Ah is far worse than anyone else."

Guan Yuan couldn't help laughing out loud when he saw Zhao Shenggu so happy.

Zhao Shenggu was reluctant to leave at the end, and the strong affection in his eyes made Guan Yuan both scared and expectant. He has always known Zhao Shenggu's feelings for him, and he also has a different kind of affection for Zhao Shenggu, but after going to college, Guan Yuan has opened his eyes more than in Tunzi, and he knows that once this kind of forbidden feeling that is not tolerated by the world is known, the consequences are not something he and Zhao Shenggu can afford.

He lived in this panic every day, looking forward to seeing Zhao Shenggu and afraid to see him, but if Guan Yuan knew that this was the last time he saw Zhao Shenggu in this life, he would show his heart no matter what he wanted, and he would desperately want to leave Zhao Shenggu behind.

Just a week after Zhao Shenggu left, Guan Yuan was preparing for his graduation thesis when he suddenly received the bad news of Zhao Shenggu's death. At that time, Guan Yuan's sky collapsed, and the sky swirled for a while, and he fainted on the ground.

After being woken up by his classmates, Guan Yuan didn't even have time to put on his coat, and ran to the station trembling all the way. , maybe it's a prank!

It wasn't until he stepped into the Guan family and saw Zhao Shenggu's body that was placed in the courtyard that all his luck was shattered. The noisy voice of the Guan family was blocked by him, Guan Yuan's eyes couldn't see anyone, his eyes looked straight at "Zhao Shenggu", he didn't know how to take steps, and fell on "Zhao Shenggu".

"Ho、、、、 ho" Guan Yuan wanted to call his brother, but he could only make a hoarse sound in his throat. It took a long time for a loud cry: "Brother, 、、、", which is the roar of losing a lover, and it is also the panic of the cub losing its father.

After staying by Zhao Shenggu's side for a night, Guan Yuan was surprisingly calm, he was like a bystander, dealing with Zhao Shenggu's aftermath in an orderly manner.

After inquiring about the cause of Zhao Shenggu's death, the volcano in Guan Yuan's heart finally erupted, he no longer thought about saving himself, and burned the Guan family, who was lucky to escape, opened the scoop in a hurry, closed his eyes, and looked at the Guan family who were burned by the fire, Guan Yuan laughed nervously.

When he opened his eyes again, Guan Yuan found that he had become a wisp of wandering spirit, and he accidentally got an upgrade space, and the space promised that as long as the upgrade was full, Guan Yuan's wish would be realized.

Guan Yuan was ecstatic, and for more than a hundred years after that, he was doing tasks in the space to upgrade, making the space a complete small world on the other side. Occasionally come out to see the changes in the world, he watched the tall buildings rise on the ground, watched the same-sex couples get recognized by the state, holding hands in front of people openly, the more prosperous he saw, the more lonely he felt, and when he felt that he was about to be swallowed up by thoughts, the space was finally upgraded.

When the sound of congratulations sounded in his ears, Guan Yuan's soul was swept into a whirlpool.

There was a sound in his ears, and Guan Yuan felt that someone was gently pressing the quilt on him. Wait a minute! Press the quilt!

Between the electric light and flint, a touch of light flashed through Guan Yuan's mind, could it? Guan Yuan cautiously opened his eyes, afraid that this was his wishful dream.

"Xiaoyuan, you're awake!"

Looking at the face that he thought about day and night, Guan Yuan's tears flowed down.

Zhao Shenggu hurriedly patted Guan Yuan: "Xiaoyuan, what's wrong, does it hurt, sue Brother Sù." ”

Guan Yuan couldn't hold back any longer, and threw himself into Zhao Shenggu's arms and cried loudly. Zhao Shenggu was distressed, patted Guan Yuan gently, and learned the original Li Yuehua's song to coax Guan Yuan: "The wind doesn't blow, the trees don't shake, the birds don't call, and the baby doesn't cry、、、 Zhao Shenggu also spontaneously tampered with a sentence.

Guan Yuan slowly calmed down in Zhao Shenggu's arms, quietly pinched himself, found that he was not dreaming, blinked his eyes, and called softly: "Brother? ”。

"Huh?"

"How old am I?"

Zhao Shenggu touched Guan Yuan's forehead and found that there was no fever before he put his mind at ease: "What's wrong with you, you will be 5 years old after the New Year."

"Hey, I'm so happy!" It turned out that it was when he was 4 years old, that is, in 1978, and Zhao Shenggu was 11 years old this year.

Seeing Guan Yuan looking at himself stunned, Zhao Shenggu burst out laughing, "Xiaoyuan, you don't recognize me, look at me like this!" ”

Guan Yuan threw himself into Zhao Shenggu's arms again, put his small arm around Zhao Shenggu's neck, and called Brother Sheng with dependence.

Guan Yuan found that no matter how old he was, in front of Zhao Shenggu, he could be coquettish and full of physical and mental dependence. At this moment, his heart that had been empty for a hundred years was finally filled.

Zhao Shenggu's heart was softened by his call, and he replied in a doting tone: "Hmm" Fu thought that Guan Yuan was out of the quilt again, and hurriedly stuffed Guan Yuan back into the quilt, "Let's sleep for a while, my brother is going to the field." The quilt was tightly tucked for Guan Yuan, and Zhao Shenggu was ready to walk out.

Before he took a step, the corner of his clothes was pulled by Guan Yuan, "Brother, I have a nightmare, I'm afraid, can you accompany me today!" ”

Zhao Shenggu was stared at by Guan Yuan's big wet eyes, eager to give him everything, and replied without hesitation: "Okay, brother won't go anywhere today, just accompany Xiaoyuan." ”

Zhao Shenggu took off his clothes, got on the kang, hugged Guan Yuan in his arms, and gently patted him on the back. Guan Yuan shrank his head on Zhao Shenggu's chest and sniffed his breath greedily.

Just as Guan Yuan's happiness was bubbling, a sharp and harsh voice sounded outside the house.

"God damn lazy thing, the sun is drying your butt and you can't get up, what kind of sin did the Guan family create, such a white food eater on the stall, my old lady pulls out the sky all day long, and has to be sucked by some moths, how can I live this day, Erwa, I can't get up, you eat my Guan family and drink my Guan family, and I want my Guan family to treat you as an ancestor."

Guan Yuan's eyes flashed with fierceness, he just woke up and was happy, forgetting that there were still these bed bugs.

Zhao Shenggu felt that Guan Yuan in his arms was abnormal, patted Guan Yuan comfortingly, and was about to get up, but Guan Yuan quickly said, "I want to get up too." ”

Zhao Shenggu nodded Guan Yuan's little nose, ignored the abuse outside the house, and slowly dressed Guan Yuan. After taking care of Guan Yuan and making sure that he would not freeze, he led Guan Yuan out of the house.

Guan Yuan's grandmother Yang Xiucui is thick at the top and thin at the bottom, and her small feet are even more like an awl, with an indescribable sense of joy. At this moment, she was scolding Guan Yuan and their room with her mouth frothing.

Zhao Shenggu took Guan Yuan's hand and came out, and shouted coldly: "Milk"

Looking at Zhao Shenggu's appearance, Li Xiucui was even more furious, "Why, the eldest young master is willing to get up and drink the blood of my Guan family like a moth......"

When Guan Yuan's anger was about to erupt like a volcano, he only heard Zhao Shenggu's angry voice returning: "Milk, have I eaten the white food of the Guan family, I believe everyone in the tunzi knows, not to mention that I have been following the ground since I was 6 years old, but at that time, you said in front of my grandfather that you would take care of me, the 20,000 yuan is enough for me to eat and drink until I grow up, if my grandmother feels that I have suffered a loss, let's go to the captain and break it in front of the whole tunzi!" ”

Li Xiucui's scolding words were immediately choked back, and her whole face was swollen and white. Shaking his finger, he pointed at Zhao Shenggu speechless, "You ........."

Zhao Shenggu looked at Li Xiucui without giving in, and his face was calm and unwavering.

Li Xiucui didn't dare to shout anymore, turned around and left.
