It was eight o'clock when the group came out, and when they came out after eating hot pot together, it was already past ten o'clock.

On a cold and windy winter night, Cheng Mu, who was slightly drunk, said goodbye to Brother Gao.

Shang Xiaowen and the three of them just ate a little and hurried back, leaving only the five people from the thief ship, Brother Gao, and Xiao Hongdou, and the seven of them forcibly staged what is called "no drunk and no return" in the hot pot restaurant.

That's right, although everyone knew from the dinner that Xiao Hongdou's real age was less than sixteen, but Xiao Hongdou, who was pretending to be an adult, ignored Cheng Mu's persuasion, picked up the beer and poured it, and didn't care about the red face, and now he was almost drunk and unconscious.

If it weren't for Brother Gao and Cheng Mu who were still sober, relying on the fat man Huang Keke who was crazy with alcohol, maybe they would have left this "young genius" in the hot pot restaurant as a deposit.

"Little Red Bean, can you really go by yourself?" Cheng Mu looked at the little red bean who seemed to be unsteady when he walked, and said worriedly.

"It's okay, my house is very close, two steps away! Why don't you go in and sit down? Little Red Bean forced himself to calm down and shouted with laughter.

Cheng Mu frowned, this young man is really too stubborn, he has to fight with the fat man's drink, and now he is full of wine, it is estimated that his parents can beat him half to death when he goes home.

"Let's give you a ride, knock on the door for you, and we'll go." Cheng Mu is cruel in the game, and he is still very righteous.

"No, you go, I'm ...... Haha, I'm sober!" Xiao Hongdou's eyes couldn't be opened, but he kept laughing, which made Cheng Mu feel at ease.

Although he didn't agree to be a cheap master of Little Red Bean, they got drunk with each other. can be regarded as having a friendship, and he must send him home safely.

gave the still sober less than made a face, less than nodded. Understood.

At that moment, Cheng Mu asked the boss to take the drunken fat man and Huang Keke back to the dormitory first, and he and Xiao sent the little red beans for a ride.

With the faint moonlight, the group parted ways, and in the direction pointed by Xiao Hongdou, Cheng Mu and Xiao walked all the way.

"Haha, that's a lot of fun. It's all scum, why bother me! ”

"Right...... Master, what do you say? Ha ha? ”

Little Red Bean's face was flushed, and she kept burping and talking nonsense all the way to herself.

Although many of the words that Xiao Hongdou said did not match the preamble, there was no logic at all. But the smart Cheng Mu can still analyze a rough idea.

Combined with the information that Xiaohongdou revealed more or less at the dinner table just now. He was sure that this was definitely a rebellious teenager who was in the midst of a rebellious period.

On the one hand, because he did not study well in school, his parents who did a small business had a headache, and they either beat or scolded on weekdays, which made the teenager suppress a strong resentment in his heart.

On the other hand, because of his genius in the game, Xiao Hongdou can find the value of his own savings. I indulge myself in games and indulge in games to escape reality.

Think of the little red beans. I also remembered how similar I was to Xiao Hongdou at the beginning, the same lack of business and addiction to games, and the same made my family hate my son.

The difference may just be that his parents are silent most of the time, and Xiao Hongdou's parents often punch and kick him.

"Dad, Mom. Are you all right? ”

I haven't seen my parents for nearly half a year, and Cheng Mu also felt a slight chill on the street on this quiet night in winter, and sighed at the hazy moon, he was really a little homesick.

And with Xiao Hongdou continuing to talk nonsense, Cheng Mu, who was in a state of confusion, couldn't help but think of Brother Qi's inexplicable phone call.

"If there is a shortage of money at that time, I have some savings, you take it first."

"I hope that the two of us in the family will be fine, and I will be able to go back soon." Cheng Mu closed his eyes and forced himself to think in vain.

Less than wrapped his sleeves, tightened his mouth and didn't speak, and Cheng Mu, who was also silent, supported Xiao Hongdou left and right, accompanied by the occasional speeding car, the dim light stretched the shadows of the three of them all the way......

Turn left and turn right, I don't know if Xiao Hongdou has pointed out the direction, anyway, Xiao Hongdou finally stopped at a dilapidated looking building in the community and didn't leave.

"Let's go, I'll go in by myself, I'll see who dares to beat me!" Xiao Hongdou pushed Cheng Mu and Xiao vigorously with a hard push, drooping his head, but his tone was very stubborn.

Cheng Mu didn't speak, looked upstairs, and seemed to be looking for the light from the window of which upstairs was turned on for Xiao Hongdou, who hadn't come back so late.

But Little Red Bean waved his hand at him and pointed to the basement below the first floor, as if to say that his house was below.

"Okay." Cheng Mu saw that Xiao Hongdou was dressed well, thinking that this child's family background was not bad, but it seemed that he was thinking too much.

"Dad, come out!"

Xiao Hongdou couldn't push Cheng Mu away, so he shook his head, and suddenly shouted at the window on the ground next to him.

Cheng Mu and Xiao were stunned for a moment, and after a while, a middle-aged man in a gray coat hurriedly walked out, shouting rudely: "Little rabbit cub, I owe it again!"

Cheng Mu squinted slightly at the middle-aged man, although he didn't see it very clearly, he could still see that he was dressed very plainly, and his body was a little rickety, which seemed to be caused by his daily hardship.

Little Red Bean laughed and shouted weakly: "Come on, I'll stand still and let you beat, my ass is already hungry!" ”

Cheng Mu looked at this angry father and his extremely dashing son, and his head was suddenly full of black lines.

Seeing the father of Xiao Hongdou, who was also full of wine, walked in front of him angrily, he just wanted to say hello, but found that he scolded: "You actually drink, don't you want to sleep tonight!" Then he pulled the little red bean and turned around and left without looking back!

Cheng Mu and Xiao glanced at each other, looking at the little red bean father who came and went in a hurry, and they were all stunned in place.

Little Red Bean's somewhat bitter laughter and his father's incessant scolding faded away, and seemed to be swallowed up by the silence of the night, and no one noticed them.

Remembering that he was worried about whether it would be too late for Xiao Hongdou to eat together, the young man snorted coldly, pouted and said to himself: "What are you afraid of, it's not once or twice that you are beaten, who is afraid of whom?" ”

In those big clear eyes, there seems to be a faint hint of unwillingness to reality, but more obviously helplessness.

"Why? Why do I have to read? I don't kill people, I don't set fires, I play a game, I beat me every day, is it necessary? ”

Thinking of Xiao Hongdou's complaint when he was drunk, Cheng Mu also sighed.

There is nothing wrong with playing games, but in this domestic environment, whether it is suitable for you or not, the vast majority of people have to follow the path given by their parents.

"Hopefully, you can find the path you want to take, and playing professionally may be a good choice."

Cheng Mu thought about Xiao Hongdou's amazing game talent and bottomless hero pool, and whispered softly to the dark night sky.

I don't know if Xiao Hongdou, who may be being beaten, can hear his sigh from the cheap master. (To be continued......)
