Why are the stars indifferent

Chapter 8

Zhan Le had been wondering in his heart whether he should tell Cheng Zai about Ji Changyun hooking up with Lin Xiangxiao until he saw Zhan Jingci.

I was tangled up while eating, tangled up after eating, tangled up in the car, and when I was about to go downstairs in the community, my eyes fell on Zhan Tingci, and my tangled heart was instantly filled with another emotion. His emotions and thoughts were crowded without a shadow.

Cheng Zai didn't know if he heard the phrase I'm not going home today, he probably heard it, the space in the car is very small, the air conditioner is turned on and the windows are closed, there is no room for the sound to escape.

Cheng Zai must have heard it, but he didn't rush to ask anything. The car drove a little before he asked, "Where are you going?"

"You can just put me here," Zhan Le said, "anywhere."

Cheng Zai raised his eyes and glanced at Zhanle in the rearview mirror. He didn't speak, but slowly pulled the car aside, "Have you had a fight with your family?"

"Well," Zhan Le said, "I won't be back tonight."

"Staying in a hotel?" Cheng Zai stopped the car, turned around and glanced at him.

"Yes." Zhan Le looked at him.

"Did you bring your ID card?" Cheng Zai also looked at him, "The current hotel doesn't allow you to check in without an ID card, right?"

"...Ah," Zhan Le was stunned, "I didn't bring it."

He never thought that Zhan Jinci would come here.

Who usually has an ID card in his pocket when he goes to school, not to mention that he didn't bring out his ID card when he left Zhan Jinci's place, and kept it at Zhan Jinci's house.

"Then where are you going to live?" Cheng Zai still looked at him.

"Go..." Zhan Le leaned back in the armchair, "Let's go to our school, there is a small hotel over there, and you can stay without an ID card."

Cheng Zai frowned and wanted to say something, but he still didn't say it.

The school here is still a bit far away, Zhan Le thought about it, and whispered to Cheng Zai, "I'm sorry for your inconvenience, Dr. Cheng."

Cheng Zai answered vaguely from his throat, and did not speak any more.

The car started again and headed towards Zhanle School. Zhanle took out the phone and wanted to make a call, but after unlocking the fingerprints, he didn't know who to call. The phone turned on and off again and again. Second-rate.

Instead, Cheng Zai's cell phone rang. He was wearing earphones, and he swiped his finger on the screen to connect the call, "Hello?"

"I still can't figure it out!" Ji Changyun was still struggling, "No, I'm going to their school to block him tomorrow."

"Impossible," Cheng Zai frowned, "He's not with you, why are you blocking him?"

"Yeah, we're not fucking together, love someone!" Ji Changyun's voice was so loud that Cheng Zai had the urge to take off the earphones and throw them out, "But I've been blocked!"

Cheng Zai ignored him.

"It's blocked!" Ji Changyun yelled again.

Driving ahead to a traffic light intersection, Cheng slowed down and stopped, took the phone over and quickly dragged Ji Changyun into the blacklist, then took off the earphones, threw the phone and the phone on the passenger seat, and calmed down with a breath Come down and wait patiently at the red light.

The car drove forward for a while, passed by Zhan Le's school, followed Zhan Le's directions and drove on a somewhat remote road, Cheng Zai frowned: "Here?"

"Well, just let me down at the intersection ahead," Zhan Le knocked on the car window lightly, "It's quite close to the school, so I can sleep more."

Cheng Zai still frowned and ignored him, unlocked the car door and got out of the car with Zhan Le.

"I'll go take a look with you," Cheng Zai said, "the small hotel you mentioned."

"Hey, don't worry, Doctor Cheng," Zhan Le stood on the spot with a relaxed expression and gently tiptoed, "I've lived here many times before, it's fine."

"Do you often quarrel with your parents?" Cheng Zai walked around to Zhanle after locking the car.

"Huh? Ah," Zhan Le walked forward for a while before continuing, "My mother is dead."

"...Sorry." Cheng Zai was stunned.

"It's okay." Zhan Le shook his head.

The small hotel Zhan Le mentioned was really small, without even a decent front desk, just an aunt sitting on a small sofa on the first floor, watching TV with her legs crossed.

As soon as he entered the door, he could smell a damp and musty smell. Cheng Zai frowned, but Zhan Le walked over to the aunt after registering his personal information and paying the deposit. The aunt thought that Cheng Zai would also live in the room: That bed can't fit two men."

"Oh no," Zhan Le paused, "He can't stay, so... come and play with me for a while."

The aunt glanced at the two of them suspiciously, and then turned her attention back to the TV series.

Then Zhan Le took the key given by his aunt and went to the corridor with Cheng Zai. The first room on the corner was his room.

Cheng Zai's eyebrows have not been loosened since the moment he entered the small hotel. The place is dark and damp, and the wallpaper is yellowing. At this moment, when he opened the room, he found that there was no window inside. There was only an old-fashioned door above the door. The auxiliary window was used for ventilation, and the light was yellow, which made the whole room a bit dim. With such brightness, I found some traces of something unclear on the bed.

The phrase "or go live with me" was in my throat, but I couldn't quite get it out of my mouth from the beginning to the end.

Perhaps because he is used to living alone, Cheng Zai separates his work and study time from his personal time.

If you invite Zhan Le to live at home, it means that he still has no personal time when he comes home from get off work. There is still Zhan Le at home, and he wants to have dinner with him, and meet him after taking a shower. His personal territory is completely invaded. It just feels unacceptable just to imagine it.

Like Ji Changyun, he stays at his house all day long, but he will leave at night, leaving space for him to enjoy the comfort of being alone.

After Zhan Le lives there, it won't work.

If there is another person in the house besides him early in the morning and late at night, he will feel annoyed.

But Cheng Zai did not expect that the small hotel that Zhan Le talked about could be broken down like this, but Zhan Le didn't feel much. This math workbook is on the long desk.

"How about I go back and get my ID card," Cheng Zai looked at him, "Go to the hotel and open a new room."

"No need, it's too much trouble for you." Zhan Le said, "It's more convenient for me to live here and go to school."

"Here too..." Cheng Zai whispered, "It's too broken."

"Fuck, it's okay," Zhan Le smiled, "Don't worry about me, I'm really fine."

"Just stay for one night?" Cheng Zai said in a low voice, "If you want to stay for a few more days, I will put my ID card on me when I go to work tomorrow, and you can come to the hospital directly after school."

"I'll just stay for one night," Zhan Le said, "really."

"Okay." Cheng Zai took two steps back, "Call me if you need anything."

"Yeah," Zhan Le nodded, "Got it."

"Good night then?" Cheng Zai glanced into the corner of the room again.

Zhan Le didn't even have to think about it carefully to understand how disgusted he was, and waved at Cheng Zai with a little helplessness and a little bit of a smile: "Good night, Dr. Cheng, go to bed early."

Going to bed early is not going to sleep.

After Cheng went back, he washed Ji Changyun's unwashed dishes, cleaned the kitchen before going to take a shower, dried his hair, made a glass of lemonade and took it into the study.

He has the habit of reading books, and he is also used to taking out professional books and looking at them before going to bed on weekdays. Whether he remembers them or not, he can always be hypnotized.

Not so much today.

Seeing that the first row was full of the small dilapidated house where Zhan Le lived, he clicked his tongue and could only close the book.

Cheng Zai also lived in that kind of house, even worse than this one. He also lived in a house with only one function to block the wind, but it was a long time ago. When he was about four or five years old, he suddenly came into contact with the house that still exists today. In a dirty and humid place, memories will inevitably be dragged back to the difficult days when I was a child.

I don't know when I fell asleep, and I don't remember what dream I had, but I probably remember that I dreamed of someone.

People rarely appear in his dreams, more often zombies and monsters chasing after him, at least this is the first time he has dreamed of a living person this year.

Really awesome.

After Cheng opened his eyes, this was the first sentence that came to his mind. Then he got up, washed and changed his clothes, had breakfast, switched to social animal mode, and drove to work.

When I got off work, I wanted to make a call to ask Zhan Le if he had returned home. A patient happened to come over, and the director asked him to help, but the call failed.

Ji Changyun didn't really go to the school gate to block Lin Xiangxiao. Cheng Zai could tell that Ji Changyun really cared about Lin Xiangxiao, but he only stayed at the point of caring. Maybe it's because I really like it, after all, I went clubbing again that night when I was clamoring to go to school to block people.

"You look a bit haggard." Lin Xiangxiao took out a carton of milk from his schoolbag, "It's obviously me who lost love, why are you haggard?"

"Huh?" Zhan Le took the milk, "When did you fall in love?"

"Ah, just with that season." Lin Xiangxiao took out another carton of milk, plugged in a straw and started to drink, "Didn't I tell you, I'm thinking about being with him now."

"Isn't that thinking about it?" Zhan Le was a little puzzled, "Why is it considered love?"

Lin Xiangxiao turned his head and stared at Zhan Le for a while, then sighed, "I've been thinking about it, and I must have fallen in love with him."

"Fuck," Zhan Le was stunned for a moment, "That's it."

"...Well," Lin Xiangxiao stretched out his hand and patted his arm, "I'll bring you walnut and peanut milk tomorrow. Let's nourish your brain."

"Get lost." Zhan Le raised his middle finger at him.

Maybe a little haggard.

The small hotel was full of rats, and they gnawed under the bed all night, making Zhanle sleepless all night, and worried that it would climb up and bite her hand.

Gee.

Zhan Le was in a trance all day because he didn't sleep well the day before, and he didn't have much energy after school, so he wanted to go home to catch up on sleep.

Zhan Tingci didn't stand guard downstairs today, which was expected. Originally, it was quite a shock that he was willing to show his face and stand downstairs in the community. He definitely couldn't last for two days.

But when he walked into the community and saw Zhan Tingci standing downstairs in the unit, Zhan Le felt that his impression of this person was not deep enough.

"Fuck." Zhan Le cursed softly.

"Zhan Sijun," Zhan Jinci shouted, and ran over quickly, his suit was a little wrinkled, and he frowned to smooth out the wrinkles, "Have you had enough trouble? Are you really planning to go home?"

Zhan Le didn't say a word.

"The last quarrel was because of my bad tone," Zhan Jin said, "but you have to discuss with me about changing your name. You can't change it suddenly, right?"

Zhan Le still didn't say anything.

"It's all changed now, and I don't blame you anymore, okay?" Zhan Jinci looked at him, "Come home with me, it's been a week."

"Do you know when I changed my name?" Zhan Le asked suddenly.

Zhan paused for a while, but couldn't answer.

"I changed my name when I was in the freshman year of high school, and I am no longer called Zhan Sijun." Zhan Le looked at him, "Do you blame me? Do you think I care?"

"This is the name your mother gave you," Zhan Tingci stared at Zhan Le, "Change it if you want to, have you discussed it with me?"

"Then did you discuss it with me when you didn't fucking care about me and my mother?" Zhan Le also stared at him, and took a step back as if he was afraid of getting something dirty, "You lied to my mother as you Did you discuss it with me when I was a junior? The older he gets, the more shameless his grandma will be, Zhan Jinci? Discussion? Do you deserve to mention this word?"

"What do you know about adults!" After Zhan Jin finished speaking, he gritted his teeth and raised his hand to punch Zhan Le in the face. Zhan Le also raised his hand and grabbed his wrist.

"I don't understand," Zhan Le grabbed his wrist and said almost word for word, "but you understand, so I don't need to say more. I told you last time we quarreled, don't worry about it." Me, you can't control me."
