you are with the light

Chapter 20

For Gu Jinbei, celebrating his birthday is not a luxury.Xia Yin still can't forget the scene of giving birth to him, which has led to the fact that he has not missed a single birthday in the past eight years.

You have to receive gifts on your birthday, and Gu Jinbei knew that when he went to celebrate Liu Man's birthday, he must give her a gift.

But he thought about it for a few days, but he couldn't think of what to give.

One day when he came home, he met Chen Ke, and told him the confusion in his heart. Chen Ke was inexperienced in this field, and he had no good recommendations. The two talked at the door for a while, and Chen Ke said, "Otherwise... A card issuer?"

This suggestion is really good, Gu Jinbei immediately smiled: "Yes."

When it was Liu Man's birthday, he took the card to her house.Liu Man invited a lot of people, including the Overlords who beat him before, some girls from the class, and some random people whom he had never met before.Gu Jinbei saw one or two people he knew well at this birthday party, which comforted him a lot.

Liu Wu was also there, and he brought several boys with him, but Gu Jinbei only knew one, Lu Weijian.

Gu Jinbei's memory is not bad, but his ability to remember people is not good, but he remembers Lu Weijian, because the voice he called Chen Ke that day left a deep impression on him.

Now Lu Weijian is standing beside Liu Wu.

Gu Jinbei thought again of the bloody streak on Chen Ke's face and the wounds on his body that day. The truth showed a crack in front of his eyes, and he was able to tear the truth apart through this crack.

The hairpin that Gu Jinbei sent was not outstanding, even a little cheap, but Liu Man still liked it very much, so she pinned it on her hair on the spot, and said in a rare sweet voice, "Thank you."

Liu Wu stood aside and looked at Gu Jinbei, Gu Jinbei pretended not to notice his gaze.When Liu Man's birthday party was over, he said to Liu Man, "I'm leaving first."

"Why?" Liu Man tried to persuade him to stay, "You can stay for a while longer."

"I told my mother to go home early," Gu Jinbei said, "goodbye."

"Okay." Liu Man looked at him with some reluctance, "Goodbye."

Gu Jinbei left Liu's house and squatted in the open space next to the stairs. It was so dark that no one would notice him.

After waiting for a while, Lu Weijian came down, his voice was as clear as his footsteps: "...I'm really annoying, what's so good about Chen Ke, Sun Jiani likes him, he just leans on his face... ..."

Gu Jinbei listened, then stood up.Lu Weijian walked down the last step: "...tomorrow we will block him in the alley, I have to mess with his bitch face!"

Gu Jinbei followed Lu Weijian, walking at a leisurely pace. Lu Weijian's vigilance was not high, but he really followed him all the way.

Gu Jinbei didn't want to do anything, just followed him and watched him enter the community before turning around and walking back.

In the past, it was Liu Man who came to look for Gu Jinbei. When Gu Jinbei went back to look for her for the first time, she was so surprised that she couldn't restrain her smile, but she still smiled arrogantly: "Why are you, why are you looking for me? Really annoying."

Gu Jinbei lowered his head and wrung his hands together unnaturally: "I, I want to take you to a place tonight."

"Where is it?" Liu Man moved closer to him, "If you don't make it clear, I won't agree."

Gu Jinbei raised his head and smiled shyly: "If you say it, there will be no surprises."

Liu Man didn't really want to know where it was. When Gu Jinbei came to ask her, she agreed from the bottom of her heart, and it was just her little daughter's acting like a baby.

"Okay." Liu Man raised her chin, "You begged me for this."

Gu Jinbei smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes: "Yes."

After school, he took Liu Man to Chen Ke's school. Liu Man recognized this place, and she couldn't help but ask, "What's so interesting here?"

"Yes." There were a few hawkers outside this middle school selling snacks and the like. Gu Jinbei bought fried skewers for Liu Man, and the little girl immediately smiled: "It's more or less the same."

Gu Jinbei took Liu Man around a few times, and finally led her into the alley. Liu Man was a little scared, and stood hesitantly at the entrance of the alley: "What if I meet a gangster..."

"There is me." Gu Jinbei said, his voice was calm and undisturbed, "You come with me, and I will protect you."

These words greatly pleased Liu Man, so she handed them over with confidence, and the two of them walked into the alley, and when they came to a trash can emitting a foul smell, Gu Jinbei said, "Let's play a game."

"What game? Why are you playing here?" Liu Man was very disgusted with the trash can next to her, her whole face was wrinkled, and she kept fanning her nose with her hands.

"It's a very fun game." Gu Jinbei said, "It's called a big change."

"Big change?" Liu Man asked curiously, "How?"

Gu Jinbei pointed to the trash can next to him and said, "We hide behind this trash can, and when someone comes, we jump out to scare him."

"This game is so boring." Liu Man frowned, a little reluctantly, "Why do you hide behind the trash can? Don't you think it's dirty?"

Gu Jinbei asked her: "Then do you play?"

Liu Man glanced at him secretly, seeing his face change slightly, she stopped complaining: "Okay, I'll play."

Gu Jinbei moved the trash can slightly away from the wall, and then hid behind with Liu Man.He was next to Liu Man, although it wasn't enough for skin-to-skin contact, but it was enough to make Liu Man secretly happy. She felt that if she could stay with Gu Jinbei, she would be willing to go into the trash can with him.

The two didn't wait long behind the trash can. A group of people from Lu Weijian came very quickly, holding sticks and other sharp objects in their hands, and said as they walked: "...you first attract his attention, and then I will take advantage of it. Prepare to hit him on the back of the head..."

Gu Jinbei pulled Liu Man out.

Liu Man didn't react, and was subconsciously dragged out by Gu Jinbei. She just heard their chat and knew that a group of uneducated gangsters were going to block people here. Gu Jinbei's reaction was far less fast.

"Xiao Man, why are you here?" Liu Wu was a little surprised, his face darkened when he saw Gu Jinbei, "Why are you with him?"

As soon as Liu Man saw her brother, she gained confidence in her heart and stopped panicking. She put on a full princess posture: "I can be with whoever I want to be with, and don't worry about me!"

Although Liu Wu was tyrannical, he treated his sister so well that he had nothing to say. Hearing this, he said in a good voice, "Okay, okay, then go play somewhere else, okay, brother has something else to do."

"What else is there?" Liu Man looked up and down the group of people following her brother, and finally frowned, "Your business is to fight with them?"

"No..." Liu Wu grabbed Lu Weijian, "We just go home together, don't we?"

"Yes." Lu Weijian gritted his teeth and wanted to say that we were trying to block Chen Ke, but in the end he didn't dare to speak.

"Give way." Chen Ke's voice sounded from behind at this moment, Gu Jinbei's eyes burst into light because of this voice, he stretched his neck to look over, and saw Chen Ke through the gap between people.

Liu Wu looked at Chen Ke, Lu Weijian stared at Chen Ke, everyone's eyes fell on Chen Ke, but no one dared to move.

Chen Ke felt strange in his heart when he walked over, and felt even more strange when he saw Gu Jinbei. He asked, "Why are you here?"

"Go out for a walk with your classmates." Gu Jinbei said.

Liu Man's gaze has never moved away from Chen Ke since he appeared. She has seen Chen Ke before, but this is the first time she has seen him so close.

There is no doubt that Chen Ke is good-looking.

"I've seen you before," Liu Man said, "I also know you, Chen Ke, right?"

Chen Ke didn't like her tone of voice, but he didn't want to get angry with the little girl either. What's more, when he saw the hairpin he bought with Gu Jinbei pinned to the little girl's hair, he said patiently, "Yes."

Liu Wu at the side couldn't see his sister talking to Chen Ke, so he said, "Xiao Man, let's go home."

Lu Weijian looked at Liu Wu, and then at Chen Ke. The former looked at his sister, and the latter looked at Gu Jinbei. No one was looking at him.

Lu Weijian felt a little blocked.

Liu Man glanced at Gu Jinbei, a little reluctant to part: "Then I'll go home first." She said, then walked towards her brother, "See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow." Gu Jinbei nodded at her, then walked to Chen Ke's side, "Let's go back."

On the way back, Chen Ke always felt strange, but he couldn't say what was strange.He didn't realize until he reached the gate: "Why did you run to my school? By the way, how do you know my school is there?"

"Xiao Man took me there." Gu Jinbei said, "She said she wanted to tell me a secret."

Chen Ke thought about it, but still didn't ask the secret.

But Gu Jinbei must say: "She said that her brother would block people today, blocking a person named Chen Ke, and she asked me if I knew him."

When Gu Jinbei lied, his face didn't blush and his heart didn't beat, his expression was serious as if everything he said was true.

Chen Ke was really deceived by him.

If there was only Liu Wu, then the possibility of blocking him was only three-quarters, but if Lu Weijian was added, the probability of blocking him was close to [-]%. Chen Ke only realized it now.

"You have to be careful." Gu Jinbei said, "If you get hurt, Auntie will definitely feel distressed."

"Yeah." Chen Ke went home with Gu Jinbei and said goodbye to him at the door of the house. Gu Jinbei took the key from his neck and was about to insert it into the door when he heard Chen Ke call him: "Xiaobei."

"Huh?" He turned around in confusion.

"Although it may be a little early now." Chen Ke said, scratching his face with his hands, the hairpin on Liu Man's head has been lingering in front of his eyes, "If you have any birthday presents you want, you can tell me .”

Gu Jinbei's eyes slowly bent into a waning moon, filled with starlight.

"it is good."

Gu Jinbei went to that alley alone the next day and waited for Chen Ke in the alley.Chen Ke came out much faster than Liu Wu and the others. Gu Jinbei waited and waited, but he waited for them first.

Lu Weijian recognized him, and frowned when he saw him. Liu Wu impatiently pushed him to the base of the wall: "What are you doing? Waiting for Chen Ke?"

Gu Jinbei nodded: "Yes."

Liu Wu smiled, an extremely nasty smile: "Why are you waiting for him?"

Gu Jinbei also smiled: "Guess." There was a bit of naughtiness in his words, like a child proudly showing off "Guess, you can't guess anyway".

Liu Wu's way of beating people was much worse than Xia Yin's. Xia Yin would make him speechless in pain and make him burst into tears, but Liu Wu couldn't.

When Chen Ke walked in, he saw Liu Wu beating Gu Jinbei.

His body reacted one step ahead of his brain. He rushed over, lifted Liu Wu away, and then kicked him in the stomach.

Not to be outdone, Liu Wu punched him back, and the two started fighting on the spot.Lu Weijian watched from the side, and when Chen Ke unconsciously exposed his entire back to him, he took a step forward.

In a fight like this, as long as you are beaten in the middle and you don't have time to fight back, you will be beaten until the other party doesn't want to fight.

Gu Jinbei rushed over when no one could react.He is like a cow, but stronger than a cow.He threw Lu Weijian down, rode on his neck, and strangled Lu Weijian's neck with both hands. Xia Yin taught him that pinching the cricoid cartilage or carotid artery can cause death.

She also demonstrated it to him.

Mother's precepts and deeds are more impressive than the knowledge gained from books. Gu Jinbei tried it for the first time, and it was not bad.

Lu Weijian's face gradually turned blue and his lips turned white, but Gu Jinbei's expression was extremely indifferent, as if he was not choking someone else's neck, nor was he in control of someone else's life or death.

Lu Weijian began to struggle. He grabbed Gu Jinbei's hand and tried to tear it away, but he couldn't pull it off.Gu Jinbei looks so small, so weak, who would know that he is a person who can hold an adult's arm so that he can't move and be injected with heroin?

One of Xia Yin's most common sayings is: "A person should not be judged by his appearance."

It is too arbitrary to judge a person by appearance alone, just like Gu Zhong, he is personable, but behind him is a scum pervert who likes to cheat and use sex/violence/force; and Xia Yin, she is shrewd and capable, but behind her is a A lunatic who is driven to collapse by her husband and seeks happiness by killing people; finally is the stepfather, who looks so bad and greasy, but hides a soft love in his heart.

Lu Weijian struggled under Gu Jinbei's hands, but no matter how he struggled, Gu Jinbei's strength never let up.His hand drew a bloody streak on Gu Jinbei's hand, and Gu Jinbei didn't even frown.

Until Chen Ke saw all this from the corner of his eye.

He suddenly exerted force, kicked Liu Wu away, and then rushed to break Gu Jinbei's hand, but he couldn't break it.

Seeing this scene, Liu Wu, who wanted to fight back, froze in place and did not dare to move.

Although they will form gangs to block people after school, they are still ordinary junior high school students. In terms of killing, their experience and experience are far worse than that of Gu Jinbei, who is only eight years old.

"Xiaobei, let go."

Seeing that Lu Weijian's face turned from green to purple, and even the struggle became weaker, Chen Ke anxiously broke off Gu Jinbei's fingers one by one: "Release."

Hearing the voice, Gu Jinbei turned his head to look at him, his empty eyes gradually became focused, he slowly came back to his senses, and slowly let go of his hand.

Yes, he knows himself well.

If someone hit him, he wouldn't die, but if he fought back, someone else might die.He didn't want to kill people, and he didn't want to become Xia Yin, so he didn't resist and let others rub him like a persimmon.

The moment he completely let go of his hand, Lu Weijian coughed violently. He coughed hard and breathed hard. There were still blue handprints on his neck. The handprints were small but deep.

Chen Ke pulled Gu Jinbei off Lu Weijian.

"You..." Chen Ke really wanted to say something, but after a long time with the word "you", he couldn't say anything in the end.

"They want to bully you." Gu Jinbei said, his voice still filled with grievance, as if he was the one who was strangled just now, "You are my friend, you cannot be bullied at will."
