79.079. Siblings
079. Brothers and sisters
Qin Yang naturally couldn't say the real reason in front of Hou Dongyan, so he casually made excuses and said, it was precisely because of convenience, so he could go back any day, and then changed the topic.
But He Jin seemed to have been sentenced by the other party's seemingly innocent look just now, even if he didn't look at Qin Yang, he felt the smell of resentment emanating from him!
He Jin muffled his meal guiltily, Qin Yang's attitude made him feel that he had done something wrong, but he thought, what is there to be awkward about Qin Yang, wouldn't it be too strange if he was angry because he brought Hou Dongyan to dinner? Aren't they just friends?
β¦β¦ Or are you too sensitive and overthinking?
In short, except for Hou Dongyan, the other two people didn't eat this meal.
After the meal, He Jin rushed to buy the bill, Qin Yang didn't fight with him, when he got up, he handed He Jin's scarf back, and held another one, his own, dark blue checkered, which he bought in the jewelry store on Fuxing Road on the night when he accompanied He Jin to buy a racket.
When handing over the scarf, the fingers of the two touched slightly, and Qin Yang's eyes seemed to ask: Why don't you wear the one I gave you?
He Jin subconsciously shrank, lowered his head in a panic, and warned himself not to think about it anymore.
Out of the restaurant, Qin Yang asked, "What do you have next?" β
Hou Dongyan said: "I want to catch a plane, I have to check in in advance, and I have to pack my luggage and go on the road when I go back." β
Qin Yang looked at He Jin, and He Jin said, "Eh, I want to go back to the dormitory to do a big cleaning." β
Hou Dongyan patted He Jin on the shoulder, and said embarrassedly: "Brother Jin, I'll bring you some souvenirs at the beginning of school next year!" β
After that, there was nothing to say, and the three of them said goodbye to each other.
As soon as Hou Dongyan left, He Jin was the only one left in the dormitory, he picked up the dustpan and broom, and was about to sweep the floor, when he heard the vibration of the bracelet.
He Jin looked at the camera, answered the phone, and a square light curtain popped up above the bracelet, projecting his mother's slightly old face on it: "He Jin, are you done with the exam?" β
He Jin's mother, who was only conceived at the age of 39, retired at home a few years ago, and is now in his 60s.
He Jin: "Well, the last one yesterday afternoon. β
Mother He squinted her eyes and asked, "Why are you wearing glasses again?" β
He Jin repeated the words he answered Qin Yang at noon, and said to his mother: "Oh, then come back early to rest...... Booked a ticket? β
He Jin: "Booked, tickets for two o'clock in the afternoon next Tuesday, and arrive at the Q City Railway Station at about seven o'clock in the evening." β
Mother He frowned: "Next Tuesday?" Three days left? Why don't you decide today's ticket after all the exams? What are you going to be doing in school for the next three days? β
As soon as He Jin heard his mother's suspicious tone, the whole person seemed to be choked by the throat, and he said impatiently: "If you want to clean up your things, you have to do a big cleaning today...... Moreover, students are on vacation these days, and it is not easy to buy tickets on weekends, so I booked them ten days ago, and I am afraid that I will postpone them by one day for fear of temporary things. β
Mother He stretched out her head and asked, "What about your roommate?" β
He Jin raised his hand and glanced at the dormitory to let her see: "I just left today." β
Mother He saw the thing on his desk sharply and asked, "What is that round thing?" β
"Ah, that, that's what Hou Dongyan borrowed...... Helmets to improve sleep, new technology products. He Jin hurriedly lied, but fortunately, now the camera is facing the desk, and he can't capture his panicked expression.
His mother let out an "oh", stared at him and asked, "You don't sleep well?" β
He Jin: "Well, I've been a little insomnia lately......"
"How can you have insomnia at such a young age? Can the helmet really improve? I don't believe in the science and technology of the Ministry of Science and Technology, I heard people say, this bracelet is not easy to use, it is not good for the human brain to use too much, and it will get dementia in the brain year......" He's mother complained, and asked some details of He Jin's life, and finally said, "Then you come back and pay attention, the train station is crowded and chaotic, the New Year's festival is when pickpockets and thieves create performance, don't trust strangers, don't be kind enough to help others, take care of yourself, you know?" β
He Jin: "Well......"
Mother He smiled: "When the time comes, let your father pick you up, the food in the school is not good, you must be afraid of eating, right?" Come back, mom will make you something to eat! β
He Jin: "Well, it's ......"
After half an hour, the fight was finally over, the picture disappeared, He Jin sat on the bed in a daze, and slowly covered his face with his hands...... He was tired of that woman's narrow-mindedness and stubbornness, but no matter how much he hated her, he couldn't hate her, because it was also a mother who would care about him, would ask for warmth, and would wash her hands and make soup for him...... They made He Jin very conflicted.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the dormitory.
He Jin hurriedly got up and responded, "Which one?" β
"Me." It was Qin Yang's voice.
He Jin's heart beat fast, and he hurriedly went out to open the door: "Why are you here?" β
Qin Yang was wearing casual clothes, holding a jar of open Qixi in his hand, and asked instead of answering: "Hou Dongyan is gone?" Seeing He Jin nodding, Qin Yang hooked his lips and smiled, pushing him towards the dormitory......
"You...... Why are you ......" was touched by the other party, He Jin couldn't help but feel nervous,
"Didn't you say you wanted to clean up? I'm here to help you. Qin Yang finished his drink, casually threw the can to the trash can in the corner of the room, and with a bang, it hit the heart of the bucket.
He Jin blocked him: "No need, it's enough for me to be alone." β
Qin Yang didn't understand why this guy in the game had even children with "other men", why did he have to be so angry with him in reality, as if he was deliberately keeping a distance from himself, which made Qin Yang very uncomfortable.
He turned his head to look at He Jin, stared at his face for a long time, and looked at He Jin embarrassed, Qin Yang smiled, and suddenly reached out and took off the glasses on the bridge of his nose.
"Hey......" His vision instantly became blurred, He Jin instinctively narrowed his eyes, half-stretched out his hand, and looked in Qin Yang's direction with a stunned expression.
Qin Yang looked at his expression, his heart felt like he had been scratched by a cat's paws, numb and itchy, and slightly angry, and wanted to pounce on the spot and press the person against the wall, clasp his wrist, and kiss him on the mouth.
"Give me back your glasses." Qin Yang's girl-like behavior made He Jin frown, and there was a faint trace of annoyance on his face.
Qin Yang was not happy anymore, there was no place to vent the fire he was holding back during dinner, and now he took the initiative to help with hygiene, and He Jin also showed his face! He folded his eyes and stuffed them into his pocket, said "no", turned around and went to the bathroom to find a rag.
"You ......" He Jin didn't expect Qin Yang to say this, he was a little stupid by the other party's reaction, he blinked, he was used to wearing glasses, and he really couldn't get used to the blur of his vision for a while, so he continued to ask for it.
Qin Yang put a washing rag in the basin, and when he heard He Jin come in, he said behind him: "If you help, just help, what about my glasses, don't make trouble, return me quickly." β
Qin Yang deliberately teased him with both hands: "Left pocket, take it yourself." β
He Jin was stunned for a moment, wanting to approach quickly and then take it and leave, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, Qin Yang turned sideways, making him pounce, He Jin suddenly cried and laughed a little: "Hey! He stretched out his hand to go around, and Qin Yang continued to flash, "I said you ......" He Jin was so anxious that he turned around.
Qin Yang flashed left and right, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong with me?" β
He Jin also laughed angrily: "I said how are you like a child!" β
Qin Yang almost circled half of his body with his waist as the axis, causing He Jin to suddenly twist back after taking the bait, and suddenly came face to face with him, the tip of his nose was against his chin, He Jin was so shocked that he almost pounced on him!
"It's really bad." Qin Yang sneered, holding his wet hands, with an expression expecting He Jin to pounce on him and hug him.
He Jin felt palpitations for no reason, his mind reached into his pocket blankly, and immediately took two steps back and put on his glasses: "You are so naΓ―ve." β
Qin Yang: "......"
He Jin was sweeping the floor outside, Qin Yang came out to clean the glass window, the two worked peacefully for a while, Qin Yang asked him, "Eh, do you have brothers and sisters?" β
He Jin raised the bar with him: "Why are you trying to recognize me as a brother?" β
Qin Yang snorted: "You think beautifully, we can't tell who is older and who is young." β
He Jin: "......"
After a few seconds, He Jin suddenly said, "There used to be one." β
Qin Yang stopped the movement in his hand: "Huh? β
He Jin also paused and said, "There is an elder brother who died when I was five years old. β
Qin Yang: "...... I'm sorry. β
"It's okay," He Jin lifted his hand to pour the ashes from the dustpan into the trash can, "I was very young at that time, and I didn't have much of an impression." β
Qin Yang's mood was a little heavy: "Can you ask why you left?" β
"I guess I'm sick." He Jin didn't know what kind of illness he had, he didn't have much consciousness at that time, he asked his parents a few times when he grew up, and it caused a lot of waves at home, in short, as long as he mentioned his brother in front of his mother, the woman would become very nervous, lose her soul for several days, and after relieving herself, she would become more and more in charge of He Jin.
may have lost his son in his early years, and his white hair and black hair will probably fall into such a heart disease, which is also the reason why He Jin has never dared to rebel since he was a child.
Qin Yang didn't ask any more, He Jin was worried that the atmosphere was too depressing, so he threw the question back: "Do you have it?" β
Qin Yang jumped down from the low stool and went back to the bathroom: "Yes, I have a younger brother and a younger sister." β
He Jin: "Biological? So much! β
"No, half-sibling." Qin Yang's voice came out of the bathroom, with the echo of the tiles, which made the dormitory suddenly have a different smell, "It's common to be born in your own life, don't many people have brothers and sisters now." β
He Jin was stunned: "Uh...... Are your parents divorced? β
Qin Yang: "No, it was my mother who left early, and my father married again." β
He Jin put the dustpan to the wall and followed up to wash the mop: "It seems that it's time for me to say sorry this time." β
"Why say sorry? My stepmother is very good to me," Qin Yang leaned over and snatched his mop, "Give it to me, you clean the bathroom." β
He Jin couldn't compete with him, so he could only go, "Then how old are your brothers and sisters?" He Jin said as he put on rubber gloves and went to clean the toilet first.
"It's still very small," Qin Yang compared the height with his hand, "The two are just in elementary school." β
He Jin: "All go to elementary school? Twins? β
"No, it's been a year," Qin Yang thought for a while, "My younger brother is older, but my younger brother seems to be a little shorter than my younger sister." β
He Jin smiled: "Hehe, then do they stick to you?" β
Qin Yang: "My sister is clingy,
