"The gambling dog in it is no longer a human being, and there is no hope of repentance anyway, so you can use him to make an example of him." Huo Niansheng said, "Scare the remaining ones, let them identify the mastermind behind the scenes, and don't get the situation of retracting their confessions in the end."

"That's what I mean, don't worry, the police are also under great pressure, and they're afraid of causing public opinion." "Their social relationships should also be touched, parents, children, wives, there are always a few people in the world who care."

"This kind of small bullying gang, which commits a new crime while serving a prison sentence, is unrepentant and even worse in nature." Lawyer Zhu said, "The law must be sentenced heavily, and you can't run away." They're not monolithic internally, and I think someone will always let go first. "

Huo Niansheng closed the line with a cold expression. At this moment he had just arrived downstairs, stopped by the lawn, and suddenly turned back to look upstairs.

The inpatient building is a six-story building, and the window of Chen Wengang's ward is still shining with a soft white light at this time.

Since not every ward was occupied, many of the rooms were dark, and those with lights in the dark were like a galaxy.

The galaxy was reflected in Huo Niansheng's pupils for a long time, and on his face, there was a kind of tenderness and pity that he didn't notice.

In fact, it's not that Huo Niansheng doesn't want to visit every day, and it's not that he doesn't want to stay with the other party for a while.

It's not so much that he doesn't want to go, it's that Chen Wengang doesn't really need him.

Salvation is a great-sounding word, and it's full of self-emotion. It's not that if there is a person who is willing to take him in, he deserves to be grateful. Huo Niansheng picked him up and took him home, not thinking about those superfluous things. He is like picking up a stray cat, still abused, watching it cautious, full of vigilance, in need of treatment, in need of recuperation, in need of a safe space.

It's all more than needing an unfamiliar person to be around and do it to himself. Chen Wengang stayed in the hospital for more than a month.

When I was discharged from the hospital, autumn was completely over, and the weather forecast was cold air.

He was considered homeless, so he had no choice but to move back to the apartment in Huo Niansheng's Genting Building. On the day he was discharged from the hospital, Huo Niansheng went to pick him up.

The drivers, Lao Li and Amanda, helped pack up their things, and Chen Wengang had actually packed them in advance, and they were all placed in the corner of the ward in an orderly manner, and they only needed the driver to move them down. Huo Niansheng copied his pockets with both hands, standing by the window, where he always looked out.

He watched the driver open the trunk downstairs, not knowing what scenery was beautiful in this unchanging vision. Huo Niansheng pondered like this, and suddenly turned around, Chen Wengang sat quietly on the edge of the bed. examine

Feeling the gaze of the passer, Chen Wengang looked up at him and replied with an inquiring look. For a moment, Huo Niansheng felt an indescribable emotion in his heart, like goose feathers and heavy snow in winter, which fluttered in an instant.

In fact, snow is rare in the city. However, in the days when he went abroad, he used to travel all over the world, and sometimes he went to discuss business, and he only saw such scenes in cities at higher latitudes, in Switzerland, in Finland, and in Syracuse.

Huo Niansheng recalled that as soon as he walked away at that time, the sky and the earth outside were big, leaving the little child in his memory far behind.

Then in a blink of an eye, somehow, the other party really grew up.

But not everyone's growth comes with painful lessons and costs.

Amanda came in with the discharge slip and felt a different atmosphere, Huo Niansheng said, "Let's go." Chen Wengang went back with him, and when he arrived at the apartment, Huo Niansheng suddenly asked again: "Can you do it alone?" Chen Wengang paused and asked him hesitantly: "You still don't live here, do you?" The meaning is unclear. Huo Niansheng smiled and asked, "Do you want me to live here, or do you not want to see me?"

Chen Wengang misunderstood what he meant by asking this question, he didn't understand that Huo Niansheng was asking for his wishes.

Stunned, Huo Niansheng looked at him for a moment, picked up his blazer, and said that he would decide later, let him sleep first and go out, maybe he went to a nightclub, or there were other entertainments, Chen Wengang didn't know very well.

After that, Huo Niansheng didn't make it clear whether he lived or not, anyway, he was the owner and came and went freely. In the apartment of Genting Building, Huo Niansheng would come over every day or two, sometimes staying in the master bedroom of the apartment for the night, and sometimes just coming back for a meal and leaving.

The meal was made by the nurse - after being discharged from the hospital, Amanda no longer followed Chen Wengang, but there was an extra person in the apartment, surnamed Wang, who is said to have rich nursing knowledge and experience, and has a dietitian qualification certificate, so she took over the work of taking care of Chen Wengang.

At first, Chen Wengang felt that it was unnecessary, he wanted to refuse politely, so that he would hire a nurse at home, which would inevitably make him look like a useless person. But this matter is not up to him, it is Huo Niansheng's idea, so please please. What's more, for this nurse, Sister Wang, her employer's family is a wealthy man who lives in a high-end apartment, and she is willing to stay and stay generously.

In this way, she is responsible for supervising Chen Wengang's medicine, as well as formulating nutritious recipes and preparing three meals a day for him. Like Amanda, she will also report the situation at home to Huo Niansheng, which Chen Wengang knows. I tried it for two weeks, and everything was fine.

In all fairness, Chen Wengang is a good person to serve. The caregiver is often confronted with patients who have lost their ability to take care of themselves, and he is far from that and has no temper

The odd, commanding ailments are as calm as a plant that only needs regular watering.

Even if he heard Sister Wang calling behind her back and talking about the "blind man" he took care of, he was just pretending to be deaf and dumb.

Sister Wang has formulated a variety of recipes and pasted them on the refrigerator, but she may not necessarily follow the recipes. When Huo Niansheng came back to eat, the dinner table at home was often full of color, flavor and flavor. If he is not at home, there is a greater chance of a clear soup with little water.

But Chen Wengang doesn't care much about what to eat, so he doesn't care about it either.

This night, when Huo Niansheng entered the door, it was just after 8 o'clock in the evening, but he heard that Chen Wengang had gone to bed early. Sister Wang was in the kitchen, she heard the voice, wiped her hands and walked out, and a fragrance wafted from the kitchen, and there was soup on the fire.

She asked her employer if she wanted to serve him a bowl, Huo Niansheng casually said no while changing his shoes, and she explained the reason why Chen Wengang didn't eat it: "Mr. Chen went to the supermarket today and encountered something unpleasant. ”

"What's wrong?" Huo Niansheng's hand pulling his tie slowed down for half a beat.

"It's nothing, just met two ignorant children, chased him and shouted a few words of 'one-eyed dragon'." "So I didn't think Mr. Chen was very happy, and I had a few arguments with their parents, and then I came back."

Huo Niansheng let out an "oh": "You were there at the time? What do you say?" Is that...... Children, who come and go, can't always be as knowledgeable as them. "Forget it, he didn't eat anything at night?" Mr. Chen said that he had no appetite and only ate some fruit. ”

Huo Niansheng glanced at her, kicked her feet, and brought the changed shoes to the door.

Sister Wang observed her words, because the soup was almost ready, she went back to the kitchen to turn off the fire, brought the ceramic pot to the displacement table, didn't move, said hello to Huo Niansheng and went back to the nanny room to rest.

Then Huo Niansheng stood for a moment before entering the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, took out a can of sparkling water, and glanced at the refrigerator by the way. Although it is winter, there is a layer in the refrigerator full of colorful fruits, both imported and out of season.

Other areas are stocked with organic vegetables, and the freezer has a variety of high-end meats and seafood, and the refrigerator is almost always in stock, so you can find out all the expensive ingredients. Huo Niansheng is used to living an extravagant life, and raising a person will not be picked.

Chen Wengang went to bed early, woke up early the next day, and woke up at 6 a.m.

The living room was clean and there was no movement, and at first he didn't know that someone had come back last night. When he suddenly heard the voice, Chen Wengang was on the balcony, facing the railing

Smoke.

Usually Huo Niansheng can't get up so early, but today is an exception, and it startled Chen Wengang. He turned his head to look in, only to see Huo Niansheng wearing clothes outside his pajamas, and Sister Wang looked very aggrieved in front of him, and she couldn't hear what she was saying through the door.

Huo Niansheng's face was a smiling expression, Chen Wengang opened the glass door, she seemed to see a savior:

"Oh Xiao Chen, you tell the boss, how I usually do things, I don't do my best, do you know......"

Chen Wengang tugged at the corner of his lips, dusted off his cigarette ashes, and didn't say a word. When she was lazy, Chen Wengang was not interested in making a small report, and as for why he was suddenly taken away, he ignored it. Watching coldly, as if he didn't care about the lives of others.

Sister Wang was obviously reluctant to do this errand with a lot of money and little trouble, but she still had to leave, and glared at him with resentment when she left. Chen Wengang had already turned his back and continued to smoke, so he didn't notice anything.

Sister Wang packed a travel bag and spent half an hour, Huo Niansheng didn't know if he went back to make up for sleep, and it took another twenty minutes to come out, go to the kitchen to rummage through some food, and also came to the balcony: "Why did you get up so early."

Chen Wengang said early: "I went to bed early yesterday, and I didn't know you were coming, so I didn't hear any movement." Recently, the cold wave has passed, and the temperature has suddenly dropped by seven or eight degrees, and I suddenly feel like the sky is freezing.

The interior is equipped with central air conditioning, constant temperature and humidity, maintaining a comfortable and pleasant state, but the balcony is semi-open, and the cold wind is swishing in. Chen Wengang put on a thin sweater over his pajamas, the collar was pulled flat, and the neckline exposed a slender and white neck.

The balcony was barbed with a railing, and he tilted his head and looked through the cage at the divided sky, like a trapped bird.

Huo Niansheng took his silhouette in his eyes and gave him a croissant.

Chen Wengang took it and teased: "Originally, I said that I didn't need a nurse, but I invited them and drove them away." Huo Niansheng said: "Do you like to eat inside and outside like that? It's too late to call her back. Chen Wengang shook his head, put the cigarette between his fingers on the ashtray, and ate bread in two bites: "No, there is no need for good or bad."

He specially brought a crystal ashtray to the balcony, apparently already a habitual offender. The tank was full of cigarette ash and cigarette butts, and the burning one, the body was shortened little by little, Huo Niansheng asked: "Didn't you quit when you were hospitalized, why did you smoke again?"

As he spoke, Chen Wengang had already picked it up. Huo Niansheng suddenly stretched out his hand and crossed it from his hand, Chen Wengang knew that he was at a loss, so he let go, but the half of the cigarette was put to his mouth by Huo Niansheng, lowered his head slightly, and took a deep breath.

br /> Chen Wengang was stunned for a moment, before he could react, he opened his eyes wide - Huo Niansheng pressed the cigarette butt into the crystal ashtray and scooped the back of his head. For a while, Chen Wengang didn't even have the idea of struggling, perhaps because the other party's movements were gentle.

Huo Niansheng lowered his head, holding his soft lips, tossing and grinding, covered by the warm touch, and at the same time, the taste and texture of tobacco were transmitted. There was a bang in my head, like a firework exploding, and clusters of colorful and prosperous brightness. At that moment, Chen Wengang remembered many scenes of fireworks - playground carnivals, street markets during the Lantern Festival, and bonfire parties by the sea......

Countless voices and laughter rang out in his head, and then they faded away and disappeared. Chen Wengang was like a marionette, allowing Huo Niansheng to wrap his hand under his arm and hold him in his arms.

Huo Niansheng's movements were not eager, he was step-by-step, mastering the rhythm, in a short period of time, Chen Wengang lost part of his thinking ability, but his memory function was extremely active. He remembered Zheng Yucheng a few years ago, and that summer night after the birthday party. Under the lanterns that have not yet been removed, the outline light outlined by red and blue light and shadow, a secret confession and a jerky kiss.

The past is still clear, and it seems to have happened yesterday.

Compared with Zheng Yucheng, who has not yet shed his youthful heroism, Huo Niansheng is a completely different kind of person, another kind of man.

Zheng Yucheng is full of spirit, with the vitality that love is inevitable. Huo Niansheng is different, he is at ease, and if he leaves, he accurately grasps the distance he wants, which brings people an instinctive sense of danger.

It seems that as long as you fall into his hands, there is no possibility of escaping.

Chen Wengang put his two hands against his chest, loose and tight, and finally he grabbed Huo Niansheng's clothes.

Until the mobile phone rings tirelessly until it rings for the second time, it shows that this is not a harassing call, and most of the callers are really in trouble. The two separated suddenly, and it was Huo Niansheng's mobile phone that rang, and he straightened Chen Wengang's collar: "Go in." It's cold outside. Chen Wengang entered the living room, but he had a feeling of not knowing where to stay.

Only then did he realize that his face was burning like it was on fire, and what had just happened was like a delusion made up of insanity.

However, there is still a sucking touch and temperature between the lips and teeth, which is real. He turned around, Huo Niansheng was still talking on the phone on the balcony, looking free, even talking and laughing, as if the protagonist in the beautiful picture just now did not include himself.

Chen Wengang also calmed down, this kiss was more shocking than charming.

The incomprehension and confusion in his heart are like a whirlpool that is getting bigger and bigger, enveloping his whole person in it, Zheng Yucheng, who is a bamboo horse, that confession is justified, like Huo

What is the purpose of giving birth to such a person? Does he know what he's doing?

Chen Wengang lowered his head and saw his sleeves rubbing dust in the ashtray, he dusted off and pushed open the bathroom door. Unscrewed the faucet, the snow-white water rushed out, and he looked up, the mirror above the sink was bright. The man inside was looking back at him with one eye.

Huo Niansheng hung up the phone and stayed on the balcony for half a while

minutes to walk back and close the sliding door.

There was no shadow of Chen Wengang in his sight, Huo Niansheng waited for a while, only to wait for a loud noise, a loud bang, deafening, almost up and down the floor could be heard. Just listening to this voice, he could guess what was broken, and he opened the bathroom door with an arrow step.

Chen Wengang held the sink, and when he saw Huo Niansheng coming in, he let go of his hand, took a step back, and stuck his back on the cold tile. Directly opposite the sliding door, the originally bright and dazzling mirror was radially spread out like cracks like cobwebs.

Most of the lenses were still glued to the wall, and some of the tiny pieces fell into the sink. They reflected each other, reflecting countless Chen Wengang, and countless deformed and deformed faces, and in the mirror, he revealed a gaze that was as cold as if he had been possessed.

Huo Niansheng bent his fingers and knocked on the Changhong glass and signaled that he was coming: What's wrong? You okay? Chen Wengang turned his gaze to him.

He stared at Huo Niansheng for a few seconds, squeezed past him, and turned around to go back to the room.

Although the family suffered a catastrophe for no reason, Huo Niansheng did not show any angry reaction. He just stayed in the bathroom, looked down at the glass in the sink, picked up a piece, and his expression was still calm, but his mind was still the expression that Chen Wengang had just looked at him.

Huo Niansheng pushed open the door of the second bedroom, and Chen Wengang was wrapped in a quilt and lying on the bed, facing the wall. Huo Niansheng walked over with the medicine box, "Did you scratch your hand?"

Chen Wengang was silent, and after half a minute, he still sat up and stretched out his hand to show him.

There was a cut in the skin under the tail finger, Huo Niansheng wiped it for him with iodine, and made a joke: "So sincere, smash it with your own hands, there are no other tools in the bathroom? Chen Wengang still didn't speak.

He comforted again: Okay, don't think about it, you can do plastic surgery after that.

Chen Wengang finally reacted to this sentence, and he smiled bitterly: "It's not a problem."

Huo Niansheng asked: What is the problem?

Chen Wengang retracted his gaze, he had never been a mean person in the past, let alone being mad, and it was rare to argue with others, at this time he fell into a self-loathing mood, and his heart was very depressed. He hoped for Huo Niansheng even more

Furrowing his brow, he asked him what was going on.

Huo Niansheng put the quilt on him again: "Don't worry about it, lie down for a while."

When he went out, he closed the door, and Chen Wengang lay on the pillow, his stomach like a stone stuffed, both heartburn and nausea.

There was a mess in my head, and the fireworks and the hilarious sounds returned. The music of the merry-go-round, the roaring voices of the bargains, the electronic dance music on the stereos, and the cheers of young men and women, who laughed, screamed, and hovered in their ears.

None of those scenes brought joy to people, and became boring and meaningless.

Chen Wengang turned over, whether he admitted it or not, when Huo Niansheng kissed him just now, he did give him a kind of dark joy of being liked and pursued. So far, only this person can give him a little hope. He also made a lot of mental preparations, sometimes he thought that his courage was enough, but the reality would still crush him over and over again, making his delusions seem worthless.

Sister Wang, who was in charge of the work, left, no one cooked at noon, and the bathroom became a mess.

But it wasn't a big trouble to solve, and Huo Niansheng didn't bother the assistant. He made a phone call, and after half an hour, a chef soon came to the door to process the ingredients, and the hot and cold dishes were set on the table.

Then he knocked on the door of the second bedroom again: "May I come in?"

Chen Wengang heard his voice, sat up and cut his hair: The door is not locked.

Huo Niansheng pushed the door in, but said, "Are you hungry? Let's come out to eat. ”

Chen Wengang didn't know whether he slept or lay dry for a few hours, his hair was messy, he brushed it with his hands, apologized in a hoarse voice, and slowly moved his legs down: "I didn't mean to be angry at you just now, I hope you don't care."

He spoke stiffly and slurredly, as if for the first time a schoolboy had been taught how to make a formal apology.

Huo Niansheng smiled: "It scared me." Chen Wengang looked up at him, he leaned against the door, still in that teasing tone, If you don't want the mirror, you don't want it, just don't hurt anyone. Let's eat.

Huo Niansheng behaved magnanimously, he tolerated Chen Wengang's unprovoked outburst - people who were tortured by illness, after a long time, their temper inevitably became weird, and it was normal for people to be human. The two sat down at the table to eat, and neither of them mentioned it again.

In the evening, Huo Niansheng went out again.

Only the bathroom still maintains a tragic scene like a crime scene.

In fact, after dinner in the afternoon, workers came to the door to clean up the tragedy, dismantled the original mirror, swept away the debris, and did not replace it with a new one

Go up. Later, when Chen Wengang went to the bathroom to wash up, he looked up and only looked up and left only the bare wall.

In fact, he himself is not adaptable, but this is something he destroyed inexplicably, and he is not qualified to ask anything. Two days later, the wall was replaced with an intaglio painting carved with a bouquet of blooming lilies.

It's a pretty painting, but it's just nondescript to decorate the space above the sink, which looks a little funny, and no one would pretend to be like this at home. But in fact, after this time, the amount of light that can be illuminated in the apartment is much less visible to the naked eye.

In the past, opposite the shoe changing stool in the entrance, the shoe cabinet counter was pasted with smooth metal sheets, and the door of the wine cabinet was also made of reflective glass.

These things that can illuminate the human figure are replaced from the house little by little without realizing it.

There are only two or three mirrors left, cabinets in the cloakroom, which need to be opened to be seen.

Chen Wengang knew that Huo Niansheng had misunderstood, but he was not simply afraid of seeing his dignity. His resistance comes from something deeper, such as fear of the unknown future and intimacy that is impossible to have anymore.

But this is difficult to explain, and even he himself has not figured it out. Life still has to live, and after that, Huo Niansheng hired a new nanny.

This time, the aunt's surname is Meng, she is in her fifties, and she is not a professional nurse, but her temper is better than that of the previous one, and her hands and feet are better than the previous one, and she looks more suitable in all aspects. Her only problem is nagging, Chen Wengang doesn't like to go out, so she has to keep persuading him so that he can't always be bored at home.

Sometimes she would go to the supermarket and call the young man along, or she would make a special trip to accompany him to the park for a walk. If Chen Wengang really doesn't want to, this tug-of-war process can continue for a long time until he compromises. But then again, if she hadn't worked so hard, Chen Wengang might indeed not go out for ten days and half a month.

He locked himself in his room and drew the ground as a prison. After all, when you go out, no matter where you go or who you meet, you will always encounter strange eyes. But this is not only the reason for not going out, but more importantly, he is afraid of the strangers who come in front of him.

Sometimes Chen Wengang feels in a trance, and the world has become another restless appearance in his eyes. Every member of the crowd seemed to have another face with blue-faced fangs. He couldn't guess which one would suddenly burst out and hurt people and bring him ruin.

Later, Aunt Meng won this invisible war through foreign aid.

I don't know what she told her employer, and even persuaded Huo Niansheng to let him start taking Chen Wengang out as well - one Friday he suddenly asked Chen Wengang to change his clothes, and they went to a French restaurant for a meal, and then it became a customary or customary arrangement.

Basically

On weekends, Huo Niansheng would take Chen Wengang to find a restaurant to eat, and Chen Wengang also accepted, he was willing to go out with Huo Niansheng to eat and drink, but there was no transgression between them.

Maintaining this frequency, it was the end of the year. Christmas is approaching, the New Year is coming, and the streets are bustling with activity.

The arrival of Black Friday ushered in a rush of buying in stores as if they didn't want money, and all restaurants were also overcrowded. Huo Niansheng booked a table at a high-end restaurant on the top floor of the department store, but his wallet fell in the car, and he patted Chen Wengang on the shoulder and asked him to go up first.

The hot pot restaurant downstairs is extremely hot, and the number is called to 300. Wearing a mask, Chen Wengang walked past the long queue and walked to the restaurant upstairs. The member reservation system is implemented here, and only 30 stations are released.

But even so, there is a chance that he will meet someone he doesn't want to meet. Zheng Yucheng discovered him first, and Zheng Yucheng sat opposite Zheng Baoqiu.

The brother and sister came out to eat for some reason, Chen Wengang followed the waiter in, and the other party led him to the seat separated by the screen, and the two sides collided. Zheng Yucheng was the first to react, he put down his chopsticks and rushed to Chen Wengang.

Zheng Yucheng's face was shocked as if he had been struck by lightning, he seemed to dare not believe the facts, and his eyes were fixed on the right side of Chen Wengang's face. Chen Wengang frowned, and before he could speak, Zheng Baoqiu screamed and let out a sharp sound. Zheng Yucheng had already stretched out his hand and ripped off Chen Wengang's mask without authorization.

The waiter was also startled, and secretly made a gasp sound. Zheng Baoqiu also wanted to step forward, but he was separated by the table, the scene was chaotic for a while, Chen Wengang was a little embarrassed, he put the mask back on, and scolded Zheng Yucheng: "What's wrong with you?"

Zheng Yucheng finally found his voice: "Why are you ......?"

Chen Wengang said coldly: "Disfigured, what's the matter, haven't you seen this rarity?"

Zheng Yucheng was extremely shocked: I just heard that you were injured a little! How did it come to this?

Zheng Baoqiu was worried, frozen in place by the atmosphere, and did not dare to make a mistake with his breath. If it weren't for Huo Niansheng following closely behind to catch up, this one

It may be difficult for the noodles to end for a while. He seemed to come suddenly, separated Zheng Yucheng, and persuaded Zheng Baoqiu to retreat.

Chen Wengang deliberately or unintentionally hid behind him.

"Get out of the way, I have something to say." But Zheng Yucheng was emotional and didn't listen to the obstruction, Wengang - The guests turned their heads to look at the excitement, Huo Niansheng pushed Zheng Yucheng away again: You have to be photographed to be happy?

Zheng Baoqiu reacted first, and she didn't eat anymore, and dragged her eldest brother home. She presses

Full of surprise, he gestured to Huo Niansheng and signaled to call later. The waiter came to his senses and dragged the chair away for them.

Huo Niansheng sat down as if no one was around, ordered food as usual, and Chen Wengang also sat down opposite him.

After a while, the dishes were served step by step, but the atmosphere was stirred, and the meal was tasteless.

Chen Wengang □□ the salad on the plate with a fork, and Huo Niansheng handed him the pepper shaker: "Do you want to?"

Chen Wengang subconsciously took it, without saying a word, put the bottle head down, and spilled the lid on the plate.

Huo Niansheng sneered: What's the matter, sad?

Chen Wengang paused for two seconds before reacting: I'm sorry, I was distracted, what did you just say?

Huo Niansheng put the fork next to the dinner plate, stopped eating, and took the cup to drink: I didn't say anything.

Chen Wengang lowered his eyes and sighed in his heart.

In fact, he heard it clearly, but he was afraid that this person would preach something, and how stupid it would be to die or live for a man. But today, there is really no need to teach it, and he has learned a lesson. When he saw Zheng Yucheng again, Chen Wengang was only ridiculous in his heart.

Zheng Yucheng's shocked face was like an idiot, and thinking of his expression even made Chen Wengang feel a little impatient.

Just now, he hid behind Huo Niansheng and re-examined Zheng Yucheng's face only to find that the bamboo horse that grew up together may not be really that familiar. The other party was like a funny clown, squeaking and screaming, looking at Chen Wengang's eyes, he only felt very strange.

But he deliberately avoided thinking about Zheng Baoqiu, who was present at the same time, and went to the second bedroom when he returned to the apartment. Huo Niansheng followed behind him and changed his shoes in the hallway.

On the way home, neither of them spoke, and the silence continued until the apartment, fortunately, Huo Niansheng was used to the uncertain mood of the cohabitant, and when Chen Wengang returned to the room, he paced to the bar, opened the wine cabinet, and received a call from his cousin.

Chen Wengang pushed the door open slightly, and heard Huo Niansheng's voice dealing with Zheng Baoqiu echoing in the living room. Huo Niansheng's voice was very low, and he couldn't hear it clearly from a distance, he had a relaxed attitude, sat on the sofa, and crossed Erlang's legs.

Chen Wengang originally wanted to go to the bathroom, but when he heard the sound, he simply gave up washing, lay back on the bed, dipped his pillow, and fell asleep after a while. But he often can't sleep well, and between half-dreams and half-awakeness, he often can't distinguish between hallucinations and dreams.

Chen Wengang had no nightmares, but neither dreams, but more like a straightforward lookback, with both his sense of smell and hearing – the smell of seafood, the exaggerated kelp hanging on the clothesline, and the street vendors blowing

The sugar man, the ice cream truck with music, I don't know who is playing the harmonica, the teacher is teaching the children to sing, outside the long pavilion, by the ancient road, the grass is green...

Chen Wengang woke up suddenly, and there were even stacks of children's voices echoing in his ears.

They kept singing over and over again, as if pressing the loop play button, from the sound of nature to the distortion of Zizi, outside the long pavilion, by the ancient road, the grass was green...

Huo Niansheng was already going to sleep, he took a shower, dried his hair, and heard a knock on the door when he came out of the bathroom.
