He Beichen stopped in front of a red residential building, and Tan Yufan followed behind him panting and slowly stopped. Bei Chen seemed to notice something and wanted to turn around to see what was going on, but Yu Fan hid in the corner when she saw this, she didn't want Bei Chen to find out.

As soon as Beichen turned around, all he saw was the vast night, and there was no one. It's ridiculous to think about, how can anyone follow you? As soon as the idea came to mind, He Beichen strangled him to death in the cradle.

He didn't have time to delay, so he hurried back into the unit. Tan Yufan breathed a long sigh of relief and walked out of the corner. She took three steps and made two steps, striding forward. Walking into the corridor, Tan Yufan was more cautious, she held her breath, each one became lighter, and she was afraid that He Beichen would be suspicious.

Suddenly, she heard a "pop", it should be the sound of the door closing, and Beichen should have arrived home. Thinking about it, she unconsciously quickened her pace and walked up the stairs.

As soon as He Beichen entered the door, he saw Xie Lan sitting at the dining table and looking straight at him, his eyes were extremely cold. The woman's hands were folded in front of her chest, and she was looking at herself. There was also a bamboo stick on the dining table, and although it was there every day, it always looked a little scary.

"Mom, I'm back." Beichen hadn't changed his shoes yet, and his eyes were full of timidity when he looked at his mother. He could already feel Xie Lan's anger, but he didn't know what she would do to herself.

Tan Yufan has already walked up the stairs, she has been here, if she remembers correctly, it should be this family. Looking at the couplet at the door, Yu Fan became more determined in his inner thoughts, yes, it should be this household.

Beichen doesn't know what's going on now? The girl couldn't help but feel a little anxious at the thought, so she gently pressed her ear to the door to listen.

"Do you still have the face to come back?" Xie Lan said as he picked up the bamboo stick placed on the dining table and swung it back and forth in his hand, "Say, what are you doing at home in the afternoon?" The woman began to interrogate him, her eyes filled with anger.

"I ......" His mother's questioning actually made He Beichen choke, although he was afraid, he didn't have the habit of lying, and told the truth, "I'm going to the video game city." His voice was cold, and he seemed ready to be punished.

"Are you done with today's volume?" Xie Lan's eyes were like a sharp knife stabbing straight at Beichen. She expected that He Beichen must not have finished writing.

"Nope." Beichen has always dared to do things, and it is a fact that he has not completed it, and he has nothing to hide. The boy pursed his lips, and his hands began to tremble uncontrollably. Tan Yufan, who was lying at the door, was terrified when he heard it.

"Are you too embarrassed to go out before you finish writing? You brute. Xie Lan's voice was terrifyingly high, startling Yu Fan, and she slumped on the ground with weak legs. She actually scolded Beichen for being a brute, he just went out to play for a few hours, as for it?

He Beichen was accustomed to his mother's unscrupulous words, and he was already angry at these dirty words, "I'm sorry, I'm just, just a little tired, I want to relax." Although he was a little apprehensive, Beichen still tried his best to express his views more clearly.

"You want to relax? It's just an excuse for you to be lazy, right? Xie Lan slowly approached him, and Bei Chen's heart was in his throat, "I said it a long time ago, it's not that I won't let you relax, but you have to complete the daily task first, did I say it?" She looked even more angry, and the veins on her neck burst out, "Then what do you take my words for?" ”

He Beichen stood silently at the door, which was the state in which he communicated with Xie Lan most of the time. He wasn't going to explain, because he didn't have any reason to speak of in front of his mother.

He didn't refute Xie Lan, but he didn't answer her question either. This can be regarded as a silent confrontation, but Xie Lan doesn't accept this, and her current anger is not something that can be quelled by an anger.

"Get on your knees." Xie Lan's order was irresistible, but she looked at the tired young man in front of her without the slightest softness. Yu Fan's heart was pinched together, how she hoped that Beichen could be tougher, but he didn't. The sound of him kneeling on his knees sounded unusually harsh to Xuan Fan, and a hammer slammed into her, smashing her to pieces.

Bei Chen knelt on the cold floor, his knees felt incomparably painful, and now every second was torment for him. Who would have thought that He Beichen, who was beautiful on the surface, was embarrassed behind his back.

He has a strong tolerance for pain, but that doesn't mean he has no bottom line. The pain, deep into the bone marrow, the thin layer of school pants now seemed to be defenseless. People's knees are not born to kneel, Bei Chen's forehead has begun to sweat, and he bit his lower lip fiercely, almost biting blood.

Look at Xie Lan again, she sat leisurely at the dinner table knocking melon seeds, she didn't say anything, as if He Beichen didn't exist. At last the boy could not kneel anymore, his body began to lean forward, and his slightly immature palms pressed against the floor, as if to relieve the pain of his knees a little, and the beads of sweat on his forehead ran down his cheeks.

"You kneel for me, let you move, something that doesn't understand the rules." Xie Lan endlessly accused, she was very dissatisfied with Bei Chen's actions. It's not that she didn't see He Beichen's pain, but she didn't have the slightest empathy.

Tan Yufan was still sitting at the door, she clenched her teeth, and her fists clenched unconsciously. Xie Lan, this woman, what does she think of Beichen, is it a dog she raised?

He Beichen didn't have the slightest complaint about his mother's unreasonable trouble, he didn't want her to be angry. Bei Chen slowly straightened up, and his hands gradually loosened from the floor. But at that moment, Bei Chen's legs seemed to be on pins and needles.

"Ahh The boy screamed, his facial expressions distorted, "I know it's wrong, can you punish me in a different way?" I really ......" Bei Chen couldn't go on, his voice became trembling.

"A different way?" Xie Lan smiled, but her smile was really not good-looking, it was the kind of sneer, "He Beichen, are you talking to me about the conditions?" If you don't clean up for a day, you will go to heaven. Kneel well, kneel until I'm satisfied. The woman's voice was terrifyingly sharp, which also made Tan Yufan even more disgusted.

The room suddenly fell silent, Bei Chen gritted his teeth, sweat soaked his school uniform, endure, endure, he didn't know how long he was going to endure. He hated his legs so much now, if he could, He Beichen really wanted to see them off.

"Pain, huh?" Xie Lan looked like he didn't care about himself, "The pain is right." Because you really don't take yourself seriously, I said a long time ago, you are different from others. They can play with impunity, you can't. If you want to be better than others, you have to suffer more than others. But you're too low on yourself, so you deserve it, and don't blame me for being ruthless. ”

He Beichen's head was getting lower and lower, and he understood why he was different from others. He is so tired, he just wants to be an ordinary person, and he also wants to experience the happiness of his peers. Why? Why does he He Beichen have to live so depressed?

"Now, take your roll out. Write to me on your knees, when you're done, when you'll get up again. Hurry up. Xie Lan crossed her hands on her waist, tolerant, understanding, such a beautiful word had never appeared in her dictionary.

He Beichen's lower lip was bitten out of blood by him, and he wanted to cry, but he couldn't cry because he was already sad. He stretched out his arm, picked up the schoolbag on the floor, and was zipping the bag when suddenly there was a sharp knock on the door.

"Who? What are you doing at such a late hour? Xie Lan muttered angrily, and glanced at He Beichen again, "It has nothing to do with you, you kneel for me." The woman walked towards the door in her slippers, but the knocking became more and more intense.

"It's coming, it's coming." Xie Lan said angrily, the woman opened the door, and was stunned for a moment. The girl in front of her looked at her through gritted teeth, and before Xie Lan could speak, Yu Fan spoke first, "Teacher Xie, excuse me, I think it is necessary for me to talk to you." ”

"Tan Yufan, why are you? What are you doing at my house so late? Xie Lan was extremely surprised, and she was caught off guard by the arrival of Xuan Fan.

"Xuanfan, ...... you" He Beichen turned his face sideways in response, it seemed that his intuition was right, and sure enough, someone came to follow him. But he never thought that this person was Xuanfan. He didn't want her to see his fallen soul, and suddenly he wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into.

Tan Yufan didn't pay attention to Xie Lan's words, but walked straight to Beichen's appearance, and grabbed his arm, "He Beichen, you stand up for me." You look at what you look like, let you kneel and you kneel, do you still have self-esteem? ”

Before He Beichen could react, his knees were already so painful that he lost consciousness, but he was suddenly dragged up by Tan Yufan, staggering and a little unsteady, leaning on the shoe cabinet on the side.

"Tan Yufan, what are you doing here? What does it have to do with you when I punish He Beichen? Xie Lan was really stunned by Yu Fan's actions, this girl dared to confront herself, it was so bold.

"Teacher Xie, is this the way of education you recommend?" Tan Yufan was extremely excited, she hated Xie Lan's arrogance, and she hated Beichen's weakness even more, "How wrong did he make to let you treat him like this?" "It's okay if the small universe doesn't get angry, and it's not easy to provoke it.

"This is my family affair, what does it have to do with you?" Xie Lan still didn't know where Tan Yufan came from, she was almost startled by the girl, she actually broke into her house and questioned herself loudly.

Xie Lan blindly avoided it, but how could Yu Fan be willing to give up, "Tell me why?" Was it because he was out playing for hours? What's wrong with him going out and relaxing? Isn't that possible? ”

Xie Lan was originally aggrieved, but now she was speechless when Tan Yufan asked, when such a ruthless character appeared, she didn't even notice it.

"You can't tell, can you? What did he do wrong? Yu Fan gave the woman a fierce look, her eyes were full of contempt, "I don't believe it, you didn't go out to play when you were a child, and you didn't go home at eight o'clock." She said, her eyes getting colder.

Xie Lan was suddenly in a weak position now, and she had nothing to say. I just stood there a little anxiously, not understanding what Tan Yufan wanted to do.

"Since you've done it too, there's no reason for you to interfere with him." Tan Yufan said and looked at He Beichen with some distress, "It's because he relaxed a little, so you let him kneel, as for it?" Do you really know him? Have you experienced his pain? ”

He Beichen was standing aside, he also wanted to say something, but he couldn't interject. Yu Fan's actions today were really unexpected, and for some reason, when Xie Lan counted him, he didn't cry. When he was punished to kneel, he didn't cry. But now, He Beichen's eyes were moist.

"You don't understand, that's why you hurt him over and over again." She cried, she never seemed so sad, "Take care." She choked up, tried hard to control her crying, only dropped two words to Beichen, and slammed the door.

Tan Yufan ran out, she covered her mouth and held back her tears, but the tears in her eyes still fell uncontrollably. The light in the foyer was still on, and Xie Lan stood at the door in a daze, as if he had been beaten with a stick by someone.

He Beichen leaned in front of the shoe cabinet with some difficulty, the pain in his knees made him unforgettable, he didn't want to move, he didn't want to endure the burning hardship anymore. Therefore, he just leaned quietly and looked at Xie Lan, with indescribable pain in his eyes.

After a long time, Xie Lan came to her senses, and she was also a little tired, "It's late today, you can sleep." The woman yawned as she spoke, and walked to her bedroom.
