Chapter 24 The boy who fought with the dog.
In the middle of the night that day, He Shen sneaked out from home, searched several places but couldn't find Ming Chen.With the mentality of giving it a try, I called the little foreigner to ask, but the other party had something to return to the country, and I don’t know what happened in the capital...
Is this person not online?
No way, He Shen came to Liang Chenyang's cemetery one day earlier, and found Ming Chen kneeling there alone, with two bunches of flowers on the table.
No tears were seen, and the sad atmosphere also spread to He Shen who was a few meters away.
If he hadn't been exposed and he was still the little white rabbit He Shen before, then now he would definitely go over and hug him without any scruples.But He Shen is himself now.
He Shen leaned against the tree, hid most of his body behind the tree trunk with a guilty conscience, silently accompanied Ming Chen, followed his gaze, and sent him down the mountain and back to the apartment.
Can't tell Mingchen about these things, it will lose face.
Until now, He Shen pretended to kneel with him, he didn't feel that the above words were inappropriate, if it was just out of a friend's concern, it would be normal.
"Whatever you want." Ming Chen said lightly, he didn't like to hear words that were too sensational.Being looked at by He Shen like this, the irritability became more and more uncomfortable. Turn your face away, and your eyes are fixed on the two bouquets of flowers brought by He Shen.
The petals are stained with dew, which looks very fresh.
"I don't answer the phone, and I can't see you in person. I don't know if you are dead or alive these days. You almost called the police." Seeing him dodging, He Shen tilted his body and leaned ten centimeters in front of his face, "You Don't get me wrong, I'm just out of concern among friends, I thought we were friends, it's still up to you."
"Let's go." Ming Chen moved a little to the side to put distance between the two of them, staring at the tombstone again in a daze.
His appearance was different from his usual silence, the invisible, inaudible but overwhelming pain was all hidden under the plain skin.
This is what they call cold blooded.
"Don't go, I'll chat with my uncle and aunt for a while." He Shen knelt up straight, and said what he thought of, similar to "when I was a child", my mouth never stopped, as if I really came to chat.
This way of comforting people was thought of by He Shentemporary. He was relieved of what Sun Jie said, and Ming Chen didn't want to show his vulnerability in front of others. He is a person who likes to boil and digest by himself.
Besides, it's not easy to comfort people at such a time. It's not appropriate to say "don't be sad" or "sorry for the change".
...
Going down the mountain at dusk, He Shen's kneeling legs were weak, and he staggered and almost rolled down the long stone steps. Ming Chen had quick eyesight and quick hands, and managed to stabilize him by grabbing his arm.
For the rest of the way, that hand was always on He Shen's arm.
"Well, thank you." He Shen had nothing to say, and said generously: "Are you hungry? This place is very close to my middle school, and the hand-cooked pancakes sold there are delicious. May I treat you to eat?"
"No, I have something else to do."
"What can I do tonight?" He Shen directly ignored his refusal, and said to himself, "Go, my chest is stuck to my back." After speaking, he looked at him with burning eyes.
On a starless night, the wind that blows is several degrees cooler than usual.Ming Chen saw the stars in He Shen's eyes, but the light contrasted by ordinary street lamps was more real than real stars.
Due to some strange circumstances, Mingchen agreed.
The store is at the entrance of the middle school. It is said that it is a ten-year-old brand. It is a stall remodeled from an old car and only sells finger cakes.He Shen hasn't been here since he graduated from junior high school. It must have been six or seven years.
Looking at the colorful lantern signs that still have a sense of age, He Shen recalled that in the third year of junior high school, he had a fight with the dog at the school gate because of the finger cakes. In the end, both the dog and the dog were sent to the hospital.
He originally wanted to share this stupid incident with Mingchen to ease his sadness, but after thinking about it, he felt that it would ruin his image too much, so forget it.
"Boss, two finger pancakes." He Shen was familiar with the small bar of the stall, pondering Mingchen's taste, "One is not spicy as the shop's signature. Half sweet sauce, half hot sauce, no lettuce, more sesame seeds."
The boss thought this person was familiar at first, until He Shen asked for a series of recognition immediately, and opened his mouth enthusiastically: "The little classmate who fought with the dog? It's been a long time since I came here, and I've grown a lot taller!"
He Shen: "..." It's been a long time in years, and I remember everything.
Ming Chen turned his face suspiciously and asked, "When did you fight with a dog?"
"I haven't." He Shen pretended to be unconscious as he couldn't speak.
There were no customers at this point, and the uncle boss helped him answer while spreading the cake: "It was a long time ago, and he was only so tall at that time," he said, comparing the height of 1.4 meters to about five in the air, "I still thought, Is it a matter of me grasping the cake if the child grows tall?"
"Come on, boss, can you take into account the feelings of the person involved?" He Shen's cheeks were hot, and he stepped back a few steps and sat on the plastic chair. "Hurry up and make pancakes, I'm starving to death."
Ming Chen followed and sat down, looking at the boss from two or three meters away, neither of them spoke, listening to the 'sizzling' sound of the cake on the iron plate.
The uncle is a human being, and he saw that the two of them seemed embarrassed, so he took the finger cakes and saw that the two of them were going to eat here, so he moved a stool over and sat down, and continued the topic just now.
"You don't know about this?" The boss asked Ming Chen with a smile, and then gave He Shen a thumbs up, "I was here at the time, and I was selling cakes. This little classmate bought my cakes and was caught by the dog Robbed. The dog looks much stronger than he was back then. Under normal circumstances, people would cry in fright, but this little classmate is different. When the dog bites him, he also bites the dog's head without saying a word. hair."
The boss laughed heartlessly, with wrinkles around his eyes.
Ming Chen's pupils shrank slightly, and he asked He Shen, "Where did you bite?"
"...I didn't bite anywhere," He Shen's face turned red visible to the naked eye, and he wanted to skip the topic, but the uncle boss's eager look must not be able to hide it, thinking that he might as well say it himself, and blurted out, "Ass."
Ming Chen glanced at him, frowning thoughtfully.He Shen was even more uncomfortable.
"I remember it's on the left." The boss uncle folded his hands and smiled wider.
I can remember so clearly because he is also one of the frightened ones.I witnessed blood oozing out of the blue school pants. Amidst the screams and barking of dogs, the flower dog was almost sent away with a shovel by the uncle boss who rushed up.
It wasn't until a long time later that the bitten child was healthy and came to him to buy finger cakes, and he was really relieved of this matter.
He Shen didn't take it seriously and smacked his lips, he figured it out, it's nothing to say, it's just a bite, can a dog choose a place to bite a person?It's not that the key parts are already merciful.
He ate the pancakes, and Ming Chen didn't like fried and baked things, so he also tried to put them in his mouth.
"I still have your photo." The boss proudly said, "If you don't look at it, you don't know, you are really running like you are taking hormones."
"What photo?" Ming Chen asked, "The photo of him being bitten?"
"No, voluntary labor." The uncle recalled: "At that time, their school organized voluntary labor, and the theme was...what is it called? I am an urban environmental protection guard."
Ming Chen pursed his lips and read it again, "Environmental protection guard."
It sounds childish now, but at the time, He Shen was so proud that he was the leader of the team, and when the certificate of honor was taken back, Han Ru took it up and put it in his father's study.
"Yes, the little classmate rode a big circle on the bicycle at that time, and decided to stand in front of my stall and help me clean up the tables and chairs. At that time, he needed to provide photo evidence to the school. He took a dozen or so photos with me and went back to the business."
"The photo is long gone." After He Shen finished eating the finger cakes, he took a cup to drink water from a familiar way.
Mingchen ate most of it, but he was still not used to it. He Shen brought him a glass of water and came back, glanced at him, and took the half-eaten finger cake, "If you don't like it, don't force it." He said that he didn't mind helping him at all. Eat up the rest.
Thinking that he has a bad stomach, this thing is not only hard, but also greasy if there is too much.
But the boss said to Ming Chen: "Next time you come, I'll show you the photos of my classmates at that time. It's very interesting."
"He's not interested in me." He Shen corrected the boss.Ming Chen nodded and didn't answer any more.
The two chatted with the boss for a while. They didn't understand it at the time, but now they think there must be a story about the boss, why he insisted on running the pancake stand at a loss.
I didn't want to ask before, but now I don't understand, why are you still single for so many years?
"Who doesn't have something unspeakable on his mind? There are quite a few people on this old street who have something on their minds." The boss was about to close the stall, and stood up to stretch. "But it's too late today. I want to hear stories next time. Gotta go home and get some beauty sleep."
Listen to the story?He Shen couldn't laugh or cry, the boss seemed to treat him like a child...
"What about you?" He Shen asked Ming Chen, "What are your plans now, to go back to the apartment or Ming's house, or somewhere else?"
"company."
On the way back to the company, He Shen decided to order porridge for him in advance. There was no other reason. He knew that Mingchen was not full, and he didn't know what else he liked to eat besides porridge.
It stops after sending people to the elevator entrance, this is the distance he and Mingchen should have now.
"Let's go." He Shen waved his hand and was about to turn around.
"and many more."
The author says:
Question: Why is He Shensheng, a rich second generation, not studying in any international school, but in an ordinary middle school?
Ergou replied: He Shen's mother's best friend is keen to be a teacher.After finally relying on her own ability, she got a job as a language teacher in that ordinary public school. In order to make her best friend happy, she sent her son to practice for her.
So He Shen's Chinese has not been very good since junior high school...
