"Xu Yang, what nonsense are you talking about, you look at you scared the wood!"

Han Bing slapped Xu Yang for the first time, and then looked at the others with a little more apology.

I don't know if she realized it herself, but her behavior at this time has a lot of meaning: "I'm sorry that my dog wasn't leashed, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry".

Su Chengyi handed Lin Tong a tissue, and he took the tissue and waved his hand repeatedly.

"Sorry I choked on it."

The others didn't pay much attention to his abnormal behavior, because Mu was already thin-skinned and easily embarrassed, and Xu Yang's nonsensical words were straightforward, and it was normal for him to be startled.

Only Lin Tong himself knows that choking is really choking, and only accidentally it is fake.

He covered his face with the excuse of coughing, and sighed quietly.

In fact, I didn't do much activities with everyone during this time, and it is true that I am busy with studying, but in the end, I am only a freshman, so I can't even spare a few meals.

A bigger part of the reason is my sister's business.

Ever since the last time he stayed at Su Chengyi's house and accidentally glimpsed that secret, he had always felt a little unable to face them.

Lin Tong has never been in love, but he is not dull, but is very keen on these things.

That's why he could see so early that the person Chu Tianmian liked was Su Chengyi, and he had already seen that Xu Yang and Han Bing were two-way crushes.

Similarly, it is easy to see that the eyes of the sister from the family looking at Su Chengyi are definitely not innocent.

Only this time, he wished he could be a little sluggish.

On weekdays, perhaps because of the presence of other people, my sister often restrains and covers up.

But that night, when everything was silent, her eyes expressed those hidden feelings at a glance.

Lin Zhiwan can't speak, so her eyes won't deceive.

It's hard to describe how Lin Tong felt after this astonishing discovery.

In the past, Lin Tong hoped that her sister could have someone she liked.

Because my sister has sacrificed too much and paid too much in his affairs, Lin Tong has always felt sorry for her since she was sensible.

She sacrificed the opportunity to go to school, doing the work on the construction site that even men were tired of, and shouldered all the responsibilities.

But she is only three years older than herself.

She could have lived her life like everyone else, and she didn't have to waste her beautiful youth on the red bricks under the scorching sun.

If, as the neighbors said, these were originally her responsibilities as an older sister, and her younger brother could double up on her after work, then what Lin Tong was really worried about was that he felt that his sister was not looking forward to that kind of day.

She is still living in this world, just because of this responsibility, and over the years, she has been walking alone like a prisoner in chains.

And one day when this shackle can be removed, she will leave this world without hesitation.

Lin Tong has always been worried, so he hopes that his sister can have her own life.

She originally had the right to like others and be liked by others, and "following her mother's wishes to raise her younger brother to adulthood" is not the whole point of her life.

But

She just fell in love with such a person again.

Lin Tong was speechless and choked, but he felt that it was reasonable.

In the gloomy life where you can see the head at a glance, the person who suddenly appears as if she can save the world.

It is inevitable, fatalistic that you will like him.

And Su Chengyi definitely doesn't know about this layer, and others won't know either.

So only he and his sister in the world know this secret.

Lin Zhiwan likes Su Chengyi's secret.

As soon as he thought of this, Lin Tong's heart was dull and bitter.

Because he knows that there is no result between these two people, there is no possibility.

And at this point, my sister must know better than he does.

So how much pain should she have?

When did she fall in love with him?

After knowing the results, pushing forward, Lin Tong noticed so many signs from the details.

Maybe it's the first time we meet, maybe it's the second when the hearing aid is repaired and I hear the sound again, maybe it's the anticipation and joy that I can't hide after knowing that he might come, or maybe it's the finger that I subconsciously hid in front of him because of chilblains.

So, what does it feel like for a person to go through so many long days and nights with such a hopeless penchant?

If Su Chengyi doesn't have someone he likes, if there is no Chu Qianmian and Chen Jinzhi in the world, will it be possible between them?

Lin Tong would think like this occasionally, but he would order himself to dispel this idea.

Maybe in another parallel time and space, but in the real world, this secret can only be a secret.

Because it can't be announced, there won't even be an ending.

As soon as he thought of this, Lin Tong felt sad.

The tacit understanding between the sister and brother made him very clear that Lin Zhiwan has always been very patient and good at giving.

Her liking is pure, as long as the other party is happy.

And as long as she looks at it from afar, she will feel very happy.

There is no one in the world whose feelings are purer and more rigid than hers.

Don't fight for it, don't ask for the end.

Lin Tong sighed again, and when he raised his head, he had already tried to hide his worrying emotions.

Su Chengyi glanced at him sideways, lowered his voice and asked:

"What's wrong?"

"It's fine."

Lin Tong just shook his head and smiled reluctantly.

Although Su Chengyi was strange, he also knew that he couldn't ask at this dinner table if he wanted to ask, and he thought that he would ask again when there were two people in private.

On the other side, Han Bing was still reprimanding Xu Yang.

"Besides, people's real girlfriend Mianmian is sitting opposite, how dare you say such a thing?"

The latter shrank his head and didn't dare to fight back, so he had to throw the pot back to Su Chengyi.

"Mr. Yi, what are you looking for my sister? That's right! ”

Su Chengyi cleared his throat, but did not speak, but first glanced at Chu Tianmian next to him.

She didn't seem to say anything, just cut the steak quietly, the knife and fork in her hand glowing coldly.

Nothing happened, if you ignore the piece of fine beef ribs on her plate, which is already scattered and broken.

It might have made people a little nervous, but Su Chengyi was inexplicably poked at the point of laughter, and raised his hand to pinch her little face habitually.

"This is a rehearsal hand?"

"Oh, what are you doing!"

Chu Tianmian didn't expect this guy to laugh, and reached out to push him, but he was full of flaws, and was pressed into his arms by the other party.

Su Chengyi controlled the protesting kitten in his arms, turned his head and continued:

"Straight down. I don't want to see your sister, but I want to see Junhe's lawyer Jian Xiaojian, is it understandable? ”

As soon as he said this, except for Lin Tong, who was outside the iQuetian, everyone else breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey, I always said it earlier! I thought I was going to make a sauce! I'll help you ask right away, don't worry. ”

Han Bing "cut" and began to eat the pasta on the plate again.

"Why can't you find another lawyer?"

As a best friend, you still need to ask her clearly.

"Because it's a secretive matter, I don't want outsiders to know about it yet."

Su Chengyi replied very calmly, and the kitten in his arms didn't know when it had quieted down, and he was looking up at him, looking very well-behaved.

As soon as he lowered his head, he was a little cute, and he couldn't help but kiss her on the forehead.

"See what?"

Chu Qianmian originally wanted to ask him what the specific matter was, but he was a little embarrassed for a while, his hands blocked his chest and pushed him away, and he bluffed and knocked on his plate.

"Hmph, my flesh is cold."

"Didn't you cut it into so many pieces yourself?"

"Because I'm thinking."

"What do you think?"

"Well, if Su Chengyi dares to hug left and right like last time, I will cut him and sell him!"

"Tsk, what a horrible woman."

Su Chengyi said this, and moved his chair to the side.

Chu Tianmian immediately stuck to him with a smile again, rubbing his chin flatteringly like a kitten.

"Hmph, just kidding, I don't."

"And what will happen to you?"

Su Chengyi's heart moved, and he looked down at her.

Chu Tianmian didn't realize the deep meaning contained in this question, and tilted his head to think about it.

"I would—"

She lengthened her voice, but she didn't say anything for a long time, as if she wasn't sure what would happen to her.

Originally, she wanted to answer jokes such as "find a master to curse all of you" and "cry, make trouble, and hang yourself", but in the end she just whispered:

"I'll run away."

"Huh? This is what a gas pack. ”

Su Chengyi smiled and rubbed the top of her fructose-scented hair.

"What else should I do?"

Chu Tianmian raised his decibels and shouted, and his voice gradually became smaller like a deflated ball.

"You don't like me again, you only like other people. I don't want to haunt you like a resentful woman! ”

She buried her face in his arms, as if escaping reality, and the words she spoke were muffled and inaudible.

"So I'm going to run far away, so far away that you can't find me, so far away that I can't see you even if I want to."

Su Chengyi let out an "um", and suddenly regretted that he had asked this question.

Chu Tianmian was only answering as a hypothesis now, and her tone was already a little sad.

Su Chengyi couldn't imagine what kind of scene it would be if that day really came.

Presumably, it will be heart-wrenching and painful.

Seeing that everyone had almost eaten, thinking about the update of the two bowls' accounts, Su Chengyi asked for everyone's consent and made a video call to Yang Liu.

Today is a working day, and at this point, Sister Lin must be working at Yang Liu's house.

He doesn't even take the initiative to make phone calls on weekdays, let alone talk about videos, and when he does a few videos, Yang Liu sings a one-man show against a black screen.

So the call rang for the second time, and the other party was busy answering it.

In the interval between the call connections, Su Chengyi suddenly realized a problem.

That is, in Yang Liu's eyes, he has only one girlfriend, and that is Chen Jinzhi.

But now a curious baby is leaning limply on his shoulder.

It's intimate, and it never happens in a normal relationship between friends.

With Miss Chu's temperament, she just didn't react, not deliberately trying to do this in front of the camera, if she was allowed to maintain this posture, after she reacted, I was afraid that she would be too shy to burrow into the ground.

But if you choose to deliberately push her away, it will appear very deliberate, and it will make people very sad.

This seems to be a difficult problem.

Fortunately, Su Chengyi, as a veteran of the battlefield, has been weathered and experienced for a long time, so he naturally reacts quickly.

He quickly cut the shot to the back.

So what appeared in the picture became Xu Yang and Han Bing.

The two of them who were inexplicably in the mirror looked at the camera with stunned expressions, not understanding the purpose of this product, but before their brains could react, they had already pulled out an embarrassing and polite smile.

"Hello Auntie~"

"Huh?"

Yang Liu didn't expect it to be this meeting, so he hurriedly put down the melon seeds he was holding in his hand and sorted out his appearance.

"Hello, what are you playing with Xiaoyi? Hehehe, it's good, it's good. ”

"yes, yes, Auntie, hahaha."

Han Bing's face was about to stiffen with laughter, and he couldn't help but give Su Chengyi a look: What the hell are you doing? Take it away!

After Xu Yang reacted, he was a lot more relaxed, he ran to Su Chengyi's house at every turn during the holidays, and occasionally met Yang Liu who came to visit the door, and the two were quite familiar.

Yang Liu likes Xu Yang's hearty and outgoing temperament, and feels that it is very complementary to his own children.

"That's right, Auntie! I'll tell you something. ”

Somehow, Xu Yang stood up with a "pout" and stroked his hair very contrivedly.

"Let me introduce you, this is my girlfriend!"

He grabbed Han Bing's shoulder next to him.

"Oops! Oops, ay, ay!! When? Ouch, yes, that's really good! ”

Yang Liu immediately let out an exclamation.

Han Bing smiled stiffly in agreement, and then handed Su Chengyi a look that asked for a knife.

Su Chengyi felt that it was very likely that Han Bing would be liquidated if he continued to shoot, so he had to move the camera away.

Sure enough, Xu Yang still didn't escape the fateful fork today.

"Whew!! It hurts!! ”

Su Chengyi silently covered the microphone of his phone.

Yang Liu asked suspiciously:

"You're killing pigs?"

"Who's to say it isn't."

Su Chengyi thought to himself.

In the next second, he turned the camera to Lin Tong.

"Ouch, we're here too. Tongtong, how are you studying lately? Isn't it hard? ”

Yang Liu's impression of Lin Tong is also very good, on the one hand, because of Lin Zhiwan, and on the other hand, she thinks that Lin Tong is like her own child with a not so bad personality.

Both are introverts, but Lin Tong is a kind introvert, while Su Chengyi is a bad introvert.

"Hello Auntie, it's been okay lately, it's not hard."

Lin Tong greeted with a smile, Yang Liu, the aunt, always made him feel very kind, and occasionally thought that if his mother was still there, it should be like this.

In the end, Su Chengyi turned the camera to Chu Qianmian.

She had already sat down in a regular manner just now, and put on a standard sitting position that could win all the little red flowers in the kindergarten.

Still, her fluttering eyelashes showed her nervousness.

"Oh! Sleeping, too? Oh, let my aunt take a look, it's beautiful again~"

Yang Liu originally liked beautiful little girls the most, and Chu Tianmian in the camera was as well-behaved as a doll, which made her feel soft-hearted.

However, her feelings for Chu Tianmian are a bit complicated now, on the one hand, she still likes her very much, but on the other hand, she feels very pity.

Because Su Chengyi already has Jinzhi.

No matter how much you like this little girl, you can't be a daughter-in-law.

Hey, alas, what a pity.

God, why can't a man have two daughters-in-law?

As soon as this idea came to her, she snorted in her heart several times, secretly scolding herself for not being greedy enough to swallow elephants.

"Hello Auntie, long time no see!"

Miss Chu was rarely nervous, she knew that the Su family's parents were very good people, but the relationship with Aunt Yang was not as close as Uncle Su for the time being.

Su Chengyi finished a round of greetings and solved the temporary crisis before turning the camera to himself.

"Mom."

"Hey, Xiaoyi, are you playing with your friends today? Great, I just need to move around more with my friends, and don't study in school every day."

As soon as Yang Liu saw his son, he couldn't help but nag.

Mothers all over the world are the same.

"Well, you didn't play mahjong today?"

Su Chengyi looked at her background, and it seemed that she was not in her own home, nor was she in a mahjong parlor.

That's a rarity.

For a broad wife like her, in addition to playing mahjong, her daily entertainment is to go shopping and do beauty.

"Ouch, do you think your mother will only play mahjong? Ouch! ”

Willow seems to be unhappy with his stereotype.

And Su Chengyi saw that she was about to start chattering again, so he hurriedly spoke first:

"Mom, is Lin Zhiwan with you?"

Yang Liu let out a "hey" and reminded solemnly:

"You kid, how can you just call Wanwan's name? I want to call Sister Lin! ”

Lin Tong listened on the side, but he wanted to sigh a little.

Su Chengyi was silent for a long time, and had to ask again:

"Is Sister Lin with you?"

Yang Liu on the other side of the camera smiled mysteriously and also switched to the back.

At this moment, Lin Zhiwan in the distance appeared on the screen.

She was surrounded by a group of small children, holding a colorful windmill made of paper in her hand.

Tang An had a good weather today, and the breeze was blowing in the sun, blowing the tips of her hair and the blades of the windmill together, and the scene was picturesque.

"Wanwan, I'm volunteering in the welfare home here, I don't have anything to do today, so I'll accompany her to have a look."

Yang Liu's voice was like a voiceover, explaining to the unclear people on the other side of the screen.

"These kids are just like her."

She said softly.

So there was silence on both sides, and for a moment only the sound of the wind passing through the treetops could be heard.

Lin Zhiwan in the camera smiled gently, she handed the windmill to the child in front of her, and patiently explained something to him in sign language.

Anyone who sees this picture will realize that sign language is such a beautiful language.

It was as if butterflies were swaying out of her fingertips.
