Chapter 06: Slapping in the Rain

I spent a small amount of money to buy a moderately priced domestic camera, which is cheap and practical compared to the fashionable cameras that poured in from abroad.

Dawn Branch carried the bag, a smile that could not be concealed.

Li Yue learned that she wanted to wait for her birthday to take a picture of her parents in person, and there was a burst of emotion and pity in her heart, and she touched Limingzhi's little head with her big hand, and said with relief: "No matter how your parents quarrel, it's your parents." I, who was an uncle, will always be your uncle. Your task now is to study hard and not worry about anything else. ”

Limingzhi pretended not to understand, smiled and raised his head, a pair of bright eyes blinked, and smiled brightly at Liyue:

"Yes, uncle!"

Li Chengcheng followed behind and muttered:

"I will always be your brother! Whoever bullies you, whether you are justified or not, I will help you. ”

Dawn raised her eyebrows and looked back at Li Chengcheng.

In her previous life, this brother didn't help her, and the relationship between the two became more and more estranged.

It can be seen that some good things and some good people will not come for no reason. It must have been something that had been done. Limingzhi thinks that she must cherish every encounter around her in this life, and strive to make her life more and more beautiful!

Limingzhi nodded and smiled at Li Chengcheng, a row of small rice teeth smiled sweetly, two pear vortices on his cheeks, his eyes were dark and moist, full of gratitude and warmth, looking back at his gaze:

"Yes, brother! Never leave me alone. Otherwise......" Dawn Branch blinked and said playfully, "I'll sue my uncle." ”

Li Chengcheng touched his earlobe and smiled heartily.

He was not familiar with Dawn Branch in the past, and he was a chronic person, so it was not easy to get acquainted with people. Now seeing Limingzhi and his coquettish jokes, their feelings for each other have become a lot closer. The difference between the two is eight years old, looking at the cute sister in front of him, Li Chengcheng felt a sense of happiness in his heart.

There is a little sister in the family who has just grown up, and he has to take good care of it!

Li Chengcheng nodded cautiously: "Never break your word!" ”

Li Mingzhi asked Li Yue and Li Chengcheng to accompany her to buy a few new clothes and pants worn by Zhang Yan, the so-called old ones don't go to the new ones, I can't wait to get rid of that kind of scumbag! Dawn looked at a bright peach-colored short-sleeved shirt hanging in front of her, squinted and smiled with satisfaction, and asked the salesperson to pack it.

There is a lot of rain in May in the south.

I just walked around for a while, and when I came out, dark clouds were overheading outside, and beads crackled and fell into the stagnant water.

Some people on the street did not carry umbrellas, but bent over and shrunk over the edge of the wall, inevitably drenching half of their bodies.

Those with umbrellas were not much better, their shoes were on the water, the water splashed, and the trouser legs and clothes suffered one after another.

Dawn Branch looked at the flow of people, and when he retracted it, his gaze couldn't help but be fixed on one person.

He Jiangmu, who was holding a big black umbrella, was wearing a pair of large rain boots, a raincoat over his tall head, and a complete set of equipment, but his body was dry and refreshing. Dawn Branch sneered and laughed, this person is really exquisite, and he should be very careful in doing things.

Maybe there's a little bit of cleanliness.

In her impression, boys are more casual and don't care too much. Replaced by Li Chengcheng, he must have a big black umbrella, and he is too lazy to bother to put on a raincoat.

In the blink of an eye, He Jiangmu had already walked through the rain curtain.

At the age of eighteen, he is very tall, and probably because of the loose raincoat, he seems to be a little thinner.

Li Chengcheng teased:

"So afraid of the rain? It's better not to come out. How did you get to this place? ”

He Jiangmu took the long umbrella and shook the splash on the surface of the umbrella to the water on the side of the road.

Hear the questioning. With a serious expression, he raised his head, faintly glanced at the dawn branch beside him, and then casually looked at the pair of men and women waiting for him at the end of the rain curtain, and a trace of disgust flashed in his dark and deep pupils:

"Buying something."

His tone was cold.

Li Chengcheng's smile converged, frowned, and then subconsciously looked in the direction where He Jiangmu came, a middle-aged couple hugged each other, and there was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy standing next to him, who couldn't see clearly through the rain and fog, but Li Chengcheng could see at a glance that it was He Jiangmu's biological father, stepmother, and half-brother.

He Jiangmu never complained about his stepmother and half-brother. But every time they mention related topics, their voices are particularly cold.

The two have known each other since they were very young.

Li Chengcheng has seen the bruises and scars that appeared on He Jiangmu's face and body inexplicably when he was a child.

"Then you can go quickly." Li Chengcheng urged.

He Jiangmu snorted, walked into the mall, walked a few steps and paused, and looked back at Limingzhi:

"Will you live with your uncle in the future?"

Limingzhi was taken aback, she didn't expect the other party to ask her suddenly. Limingzhi pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment before calmly meeting He Jiangmu's cold and dark gaze:

"My uncle's house is close to the school. But I prefer to live with my mother. ”

"Yes." He Jiangmu nodded, "Then I'll go to your brother and buy candy for you to eat by the way." ”

Dawnbranch's eyes widened.

Who told him he liked candy?

How can she be like a child and still need to be coaxed with sugar?

Dawn puffed out her cheeks unconsciously, and she sulked.

It's not a child, but as soon as the other party says it, she always thinks that this is the case, and she also wants to eat candy.

"Well, brother has a candy here." One hand is spread out, and a toffee is in the palm of your hand.

Dawn raised her little hand, picked up the toffee, opened the paper bag, and stuffed it into her mouth. The rich milky fragrance spread in the taste buds, and Limingzhi suddenly forgot the little depression in the last second.

Li Chengcheng also smiled when he saw her happy eating candy.

"I like to eat candy, and my brother will buy candy for you every day in the future." Li Chengcheng said in a rough voice.

"Thank you, brother!" Dawn smiled sweetly and thanked him.

He Jiangmu looked at the two siblings with a smile.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the other side through the heavy rain, and the three of them seemed to be waiting impatiently, and the man raised his hand and waved, signaling him to buy things as soon as possible. The smile instantly froze on his face, and He Jiangmu turned around and walked into the mall.

Li Yue went to pick up the car, maybe it was rainy and it was the peak season, and the flow of people was large.

Two siblings stood outside the door.

Limingzhi saw He Jiangmu go in, and it didn't take long for him to come out, carrying a bag in his hand, looking like it should be a pair of rain boots.

"Buying rain boots?" Li Chengcheng said.

"Yes."

"For that woman?" Li Chengcheng said.

He Jiangmu did not answer.

Carrying a bag and holding up an umbrella, he walked into the heavy rain again.

Limingzhi was suddenly a little curious: "Brother, who is that woman?" Why don't you come and buy it yourself? ”

"Stepmom." Li Chengcheng snorted, "I heard that it was the woman who intervened in the marriage of my aunt and uncle, and it caused my aunt to jump off the building and die." I didn't expect that the woman was so thick-skinned that she dared to let He Jiangmu run errands for her. ”

Li Chengcheng snorted to the side, with an undisguised disgust.

Limingzhi raised her head, staring straight at He Jiangmu's lonely back, she saw the rain boots delivered to the woman, the woman saw the rain boots, seemed to open her mouth and said a few unpleasant words, and the man on the side raised his hand and gave He Jiangmu a slap.

It rained heavily.

In a trance, Dawn Branch seemed to hear the crisp slap that came faintly.

His face hurt hotly.

She wanted to see He Jiangmu's expression clearly, but his tall figure was always hidden in the rain and fog, so unreal.

Not long after, the three of them came towards the mall, holding two umbrellas.

He Jiangmu stood alone in place, with a pair of rain boots and women's rain boots on the ground.

The woman cried and complained: Husband, this is too small, Jiang Mu deliberately embarrassed me in front of my in-laws!

The man didn't think about it, and directly slapped his unlucky son.

They all tell you how big the foot size is, and you can still buy the wrong one! What an idiot!
