that painting.

Lin Zhen could tell at a glance that it was a photo of him when he was in Tonggao, because behind him in the photo was the iconic sculpture that Tonggao could see as soon as he entered the school - "The Reader".

Lin Zhen also remembered clearly when this photo was taken. It was his first day at the school gate when he was stopped by a senior sister to take the photo, saying that it was to be put on the school bulletin board for freshman admission promotion.

Lin Zhen didn't even have this photo himself. Later, the freshmen admission column on the bulletin board was withdrawn. He asked his senior to ask for it, but the other party couldn't find it anymore. He didn't expect to see it in this way today.

The three-person basketball game on the basketball court has entered a fever pitch. Li Zhenbai is tall and flexible. It looks like he has been specially trained. The advantage has been increased. The two boys on the opposite side simply joined forces to defend against him.

Li Zhenbai's goals have decreased significantly, but the gap between the two sides is large and they still have an advantage.

In the last 2 minutes, Li Zhenbai and one of the boys had the same score. Li Zhenbai was defended more impenetrably. He simply gave up the area close to the basket and held the ball for a long time to defend near the three-point line until the last few seconds. , he made a fake move, cheated the opponent with a feint, jumped, and made a beautiful three-pointer.

The ball went into the basket, Li Zhenbai shook his head, sweat was thrown out, he panted heavily and turned his head to look at Lin Zhen, showing a rather youthful smile that didn't match his age, and stretched out his hand to make a V.

Lin Zhen looked at him, and a part of his heart made a soft sound of cracking, something continued to loosen.

Holding the won 30 yuan in his hand, Li Zhenbai strode up to Lin Zhen, shaking the money in his hand, as if he was shaking the precious treasure looted from the dragon.

He grabbed Lin Zhen's arm, made him stand up and follow him, and said with a smile, "Let's go, my beauty, use my booty to buy you a new bouquet of flowers!"

Lin Zhen took the 30 yuan, went to the small shop next door to buy two bottles of water, and put all the change into Li Zhenbai's hands, "Let's go..."

"Where are you going?" After Li Zhenbai asked, he raised his head and gulped water, his Adam's apple sliding up and down.

Lin Zhen replied: "Go to the clothing store opposite the bar just now, I left the flowers there."

Li Zhenbai was stunned for a moment, then curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled, pulled Lin Zhen to kiss him intimately on the lips, and then said: "Wait for me."

He picked up his mobile phone and made a call. The two of them were waiting on the side of the street. Not long after, a black car drove up. The two of them got in the car and went back to the bar. Lin Zhen took out the flowers and sat back in the car.

It was almost one o'clock in the morning when the car arrived at the hotel where Lin Zhen was staying.

Before getting out of the car, Lin Zhen turned to look at Li Zhenbai.

Li Zhenbai looked at him with a smile: "What's wrong?"

Lin Zhen looked down at his waist and abdomen, and the other party's strong arms were tightly wrapped around it, preventing him from moving.

Li Zhenbai glanced at him and sighed, "Your waist is really thin."

Lin Zhen glanced at the driver in the driver's seat and said, "It's too late, I have to go up."

Li Zhenbai said: "Okay, you go up."

Then, he still didn't let go.

Lin Zhen looked at him, and Li Zhenbai pressed his forehead against his forehead: "I want to go up with you."

Lin Zhen shook his head, and pushed him away resolutely, "They are all acquaintances in the team on the same floor, so it's not good to be seen."

Hearing this, the hands around his waist gradually loosened, and Lin Zhen lowered his eyelids: "I'm leaving..."

After finishing speaking, he hugged the flowers and without even saying goodbye, he pushed the car door and got out of the car, and quickly walked into the hotel gate.

……

After returning to the room, Lin Zhen quickly took a shower, then spent a little time sorting out the materials he got during the day, and then he was going to turn off the lights and go to sleep.

At this moment, the doorbell of the room rang suddenly, Lin Zhen got out of bed unexpectedly, walked to the door, and asked, "Who is it?"

A vague voice outside the door replied: "Takeaway!"

After Lin Zhen was startled for a moment, he quickly unlocked the door, pulled the door open, pulled the person standing at the door into the room, and then locked the door immediately.

"Are you crazy?" Lin Zhen looked at Li Zhenbai who was wearing a black T-shirt and peaked cap in astonishment.

Li Zhenbai raised his head and took off his hat. His hair was still a little wet. He had obviously just rushed out of the shower. His eyes quickly swept across Lin Zhen who was wearing half-sleeved shorts and pajamas, and then he turned his head and smiled helplessly. A little hoarse: "You make it hard for me to think like this."

Lin Zhen looked down at himself, didn't think there was anything wrong, so he went to find a nightgown in the cabinet and put it on, then put his hands on his chest and said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

Li Zhenbai turned his head and came back, his gaze swept all the way from top to bottom, and finally settled on the opponent's calf and ankle.

Lin Zhen simply returned to the bed, sat on the head of the bed, covered his lower body with the quilt, and looked up at the other party.

Li Zhenbai showed a regretful expression, "tsk" and said: "I came here because I really want to give you a gift tonight."

Lin Zhen thought of a certain experience in the past, glanced at him, and then said a little unbearably: "It's so late, you still have thoughts..."

Li Zhenbai took out a boxy object wrapped in soft paper from behind, Lin Zhen's eyes quickly fixed on it, his expression suddenly became stiff, and there were faint tears in his eyes.Obviously, he had already guessed what it was.

Li Zhenbai took away the things in his hand, looked down at himself, and smiled meaningfully: "If you like this, I will give it to you to play tonight."

Lin Zhen's reaction was to throw off the quilt all at once, jump out of the bed, and throw himself on him...and took the things in his hand.

He almost used a pious movement to undo the layers of wrapping paper little by little. When the contents inside gradually revealed the whole picture, Lin Zhen cried.

He squatted down, buried his face in his knees, his shoulders trembled slightly, and wept silently.

Li Zhenbai walked up to him, joined him, took the painting in his hand, hugged it together, sat on the bed by himself, and let him sit on his lap.

Crying silently is more moving than crying loudly. Li Zhenbai buried his head in his neck, shaking it gently back and forth, and coaxed him in a low voice: "It's good to cry, baby, you are suffering. Big brother is so distressed, if you feel uncomfortable, just talk to big brother, okay?"

Lin Zhen raised his head, looked at him with tears in his eyes, then lowered his head suddenly, opened his mouth and bit Li Zhenbai's shoulder hard through his clothes.

Li Zhenbai snorted, obviously in pain, but he didn't stop him. Instead, he reached out and rubbed the back of the other's head and the back of his neck repeatedly. His body was still shaking slightly, and he murmured repeatedly: "Be good, baby..."

Lin Zhen raised his head and embraced Li Zhenbai's neck with one hand. Li Zhenbai helped him hold the painting in one hand, put the other hand on the back of his neck, and asked him softly, "What's wrong?"

Lin Zhen's face was full of tears, his eyes and nose were red, he should look very embarrassed, but he was extraordinarily charming, even though he was already very familiar with this face, when Li Zhenbai saw him, he would occasionally lose his mind .

Lin Zhen looked up, and tears fell down like broken beads. His eyes were clear and bright, which made people see the sadness in his eyes. He choked up and said: " They treated me badly."

Li Zhenbai knew who he was talking about, and hugged him even tighter. Lin Zhen's tears made him flustered. This feeling made him very strange. It's so good, it's so distressing, it's too late to like you, how can I treat you badly."

Lin Zhen said again: "You are not good to me either."

Li Zhenbai's attention immediately returned to his eyes, pushed the thoughts in his head to the back, hugged Lin Zhen even tighter, gritted his teeth and said, "I was blind before!"

Li Zhenbai didn't know if Lin Zhen was satisfied with this answer, observing the other person's expression, Lin Zhen buried his face back in his neck, and took another bite at the same place, Li Zhenbai hissed, waiting for the other person to vent, this time Only then did he embrace him, let him lie on the bed, and lay beside him, comforting him in a low voice: "Baby, are you tired from crying, let's lie down for a while."

Seeing Lin Zhen lying down obediently, Li Zhenbai heaved a sigh of relief, and lay down on his side, helping him hold the painting, letting him look at it, and putting his gaze on it, and said softly: "Auntie's painting is really good .”

Lin Zhen stretched out his hand to touch this painting lightly, and his voice was a little hoarse from crying: "This painting is called "New Year", and it is a scene where Lin Shu and I ask for red envelopes for New Year's greetings. This is my mother's private It is not intended to be exhibited or sold."

"The frame of this painting is much smaller than normal, because it has been cropped, and there is a circle of Chinese New Year decorations at home outside the original version.

Because it was painted for fun, Lin Shui and I hung it on the wall of the room. We didn’t take it too seriously. Later, there was a rat attack at home and a hole was bitten, so we cut out a part and framed it again, and put it away properly. Never hung up again. "

"Unexpectedly, this became the only work of my mother that I could keep in my hand. Later, my father also sold this painting. I went to find a buyer and wanted to buy it back at a high price, but the other party refused. can give up."

"How did you get it?" Lin Zhen asked, turning to Li Zhenbai.

Li Zhenbai said with a serious face: "I told the buyer that this painting is about my wife and my wife's younger brother, and he agreed to return it to me."

Lin Zhen opened his eyes wide and looked at him, Li Zhenbai stretched out his hand and wiped his face indiscriminately, wiped his wet hand, and laughed loudly: "I'm lying to you, I asked about his preferences, and someone found a treasure, and exchanged it with him. came."

Lin Zhen didn't say anything, but everything was revealed in his eyes. Li Zhenbai rubbed his rosy lips repeatedly with his fingers, experiencing the soft touch, carefully put the painting aside, turned over, faced him face to face, and asked softly Said: "So, I am so good, is there any reward?"

Lin Zhen responded with a small yawn. Li Zhenbai swallowed when he saw the neat white teeth and the pink tip of his tongue.

Lin Zhen turned over and faced him, Li Zhenbai was full of expectation... Lin Zhen closed his eyes and said, "I want to sleep."

Li Zhenbai let out a "tsk", and still helped him take off the heavy nightgown, then pulled the quilt over, and before covering it up, his eyes lingered on Lin Zhen's figure lying on his side and his white, clean and delicate skin, and sighed , In the end, he helped him cover the quilt, and then he felt uncomfortable with the corner of the quilt, so he lay down beside him, turned off the headlight, leaving only the dim desk lamp.

Li Zhenbai stretched out his hand behind Lin Zhen, and patted it lightly: "Do you want me to find someone to say hello to your team leader, and you will meet them later tomorrow morning?"

Lin Zhen's voice was intermittent: "No...use..."

Li Zhenbai glanced at the time on his watch and frowned, "You can still sleep for five hours, don't worry, I will call you when the time comes."

After finishing speaking, he continued to pat Lin Zhen's back lightly with his hand, humming a lullaby softly like coaxing a child.Soon, Lin Zhen took a long breath and fell asleep completely.

Li Zhenbai got up very gently, took the painting beside him, put it on his lap, and looked at it carefully.

In the painting, the children wearing red padded jackets are one big and one small, all of them are as white and lovely as suet jade. Li Zhenbai touched the face of the older child with his fingers, and then moved his eyes to the sleeping person next to him, who was already fast asleep. The brows of the old man were still slightly frowned.

Li Zhenbai stretched out his hand to caress between his eyebrows, but there was no effect. As his fingers left, Lin Zhen frowned again.

He didn't know what to do for a moment, and the flustered feeling just now came up again, which made Li Zhenbai feel an inexplicable sadness in his heart.

In the night when the neon lights were flashing outside the window, suddenly there was a flash of lightning.Immediately afterwards, thunder rang out, almost overlapping with the rumble of the indoor air conditioner.

Li Zhenbai was sitting on the head of the bed, holding the painting in his hand, his fingers were tightly squeezed, the veins on the back of his hand were exposed.
