haphazard

Chapter 11

After a while, Xu Yu came back, with breakfast in one hand and change in the other hand, strode towards him, handed the things to him, turned around and put the money in the iron box on the refrigerator.

Xie Cheng consciously separated all the things, took clean chopsticks, and the two of them sat on the small chair to eat.

He could feel that Xu Yu was a little sluggish, probably because he didn't get enough sleep, his eyes were drooping and his face was expressionless, looking a little unhappy.Although he didn't look energetic, his eating speed was not slow at all. After eating breakfast quickly, he walked to the bar with his long legs and started to tidy things up. Then he went to the storage room to find a broom and started sweeping the floor.

Xie Cheng watched him sweep the small reception area at the front desk twice and finally finished eating, said hello and went upstairs to sleep.

Not long after he left, Tong Lianwei came over, holding soy milk and fried dough sticks in his hand, looking at Xu Yu who had been busy all morning, he couldn't help laughing, "Obviously no one came, but you have to clean every time you get up early .”

Xu Yu leaned against the door, put one hand on the broom, raised his eyebrows, and seemed to ask again, "Why are you here?"

"I guess you didn't eat in the morning, so I urged you to come for breakfast." Tong Lianwei stuffed the soy milk into his hand, "It's still hot, drink it while it's hot, I don't know what kind of stuffed buns you want to eat today, just I bought some of them. Take them and eat them, and I’ll eat the ones I can’t eat.”

Xu Yu looked at the soy milk in his hand, then at the bag of buns in Tong Lianwei's hand, squinted his eyes and raised the soy milk, meaning [I only want this].

"Ah, you don't eat well." Tong Lianwei's tone was resigned, there was no way, no one would force Xu Yu to eat what he didn't want to eat, and he had to eat it himself.

Xu Yu held soy milk in his hand, but didn't drink it, and looked at Tong Lianwei.Although his face was expressionless, Tong Lianwei still guessed that Xu Yu was driving him away.

"Why, you didn't let me in when I brought you breakfast early in the morning?" Tong Lianwei sighed, "Xu Yu, it's not your brother anymore."

Xu Yu was also a little confused. He seemed to have seen Xie Cheng say hello and went upstairs, but he was not sure because he was busy and didn't pay attention. If Tong Lianwei saw this, he didn't know how to explain it. One more thing is worse than one less thing. Well.

He stepped into the kitchen quickly. Fortunately, no one was there, and even the dining table was cleaned up. Tong Lianwei followed closely and put the breakfast down skillfully, "Hey, I didn't say, when will you change the table? This low table It was fine for you and me when we were young, but now that you have grown up, your head, my head, and this table less than one meter away will not be able to stretch your legs.”

Xu Yu glanced at him, put down the soy milk in his hand and gestured: [I don't want to sit out. ]

"Okay, okay, I said the wrong thing..." Tong Lianwei sighed, "The weather is good today. I heard from the weather forecast that the sun will rise at noon today. It just happened to help you dry out the quilt. There are so many rooms and one person is too tiring."

Xu Yu nodded and agreed without thinking. After all, Tong Lianwei often came to help.

When he sat down and finished his breakfast, then washed the dishes and climbed up to the third floor, Xu Yu suddenly remembered something.He forgot that there is a person hiding in his house now, and the child lives on the third floor. He doesn't know which room it is in, but Tong Lianwei will reveal his identity no matter which one he goes in one by one.

Xu Yu felt a little desperate for a moment. He climbed the stairs to stop him, but found him standing at the door of his room, motionless.

Xu Yu approached quickly, looked into the room through Tong Lianwei, and found that Xie Cheng was sleeping soundly in his bed, frowning.

It's over... Xu Yu felt dizzy for a while. Although he didn't show anything on the surface, he did think a lot in his heart, such as how did this little bastard go to his bed/sleep? He can still lie round and round, saying that he is thanking the boss for staying here for something, but they all ran to his bed...

But the strange thing was that Tong Lianwei didn't ask anything, he turned around and looked at Xu Yu.

Xu Yu could only look up at him.

Neither of them spoke, but Xu Yu clearly felt the air pressure around Tong Lianwei drop.

Tong Lianwei turned around and went to another room. Xu Yu followed him, watching him disassemble the bedding/bedding, and then dragged it to the roof to dry. He deliberately didn't go to his room, but went around the laundry room.

After all the drying on the third floor was finished, when he was walking towards the second floor, he suddenly turned around.He stood at the corner of the stairs, and the light from the window sill shone on Xu Yu who was on the stairs now. He looked up at Xu Yu, but couldn't see clearly.

Tong Lianwei suddenly felt that he didn't understand this little boy.

Since when did you not understand?He didn't know either.Maybe it was after his mother got sick in high school, maybe it was after his mother forced him not to pursue the secret he knew nothing about, maybe it was after he dropped out of high school.

Xu Yu dropped out of school before the college entrance examination, he disappeared for a while, and Tong Lianwei couldn't find him.

He came back the night before the college entrance examination and went to see Tong Lianwei.Said that he would not continue to study anymore, and encouraged him to take a good university entrance examination and strive to enter the best university in the old Qiushui District. If he had the opportunity, he might be able to go to the new Qiushui District as an exchange student.

Then it disappeared again.

Tong Lianwei guessed that it was about that time.

He always felt that he was a dull person, and every time he found that something was wrong with Xu Yu, Xu Yu was in a particularly broken state.

He couldn't tell the difference, so he used his liking to clumsily perceive and tried hard to get acquainted with every bit of him.

However, he still didn't understand.

After all these years, he thought he understood.In the end, the bamboo basket fetched water in vain.

For example, he thought Xu Yu didn't like men.

Well, never asked.

I just found out today that I was wrong.

Ah, he suddenly remembered.The two ran into each other at the entrance of his small store before, and the atmosphere was weird. Boss Xie also praised Xu Yu as a good person, so he probably started at that time.

He also foolishly offered Xu Yu so many good times, no wonder Xu Yu annoyed him.

"When did it start?" Tong Lianwei asked.

Xu Yu raised his hand and rubbed his head, feeling that Tong Lianwei had misunderstood, but he couldn't tell where he had misunderstood.

He raised his hand and said, "Half a month ago? I can't remember exactly how long."

Tong Lianwei nodded to show that he knew it, turned his head and walked to the second floor, then suddenly thought of something, and continued: "Some time ago, there was an infighting in Shisu District, and the eldest brother of the Yulong Gang died on his second floor. In the hands of Qi Shaoxun, the head of the family. After Qi Shaoxun came to power, he went door to door in the old Qiushui District to inquire about a person, and the appearance he described was very similar to Boss Xie."

Xu Yuwen frowned.

"You were also asked some time ago. I don't know if it's thanks to the boss, but you have to be careful not to involve yourself in it." Tong Lianwei paused, and then finished speaking, "You also know that my dad has been giving to the boss for a long time. The gang on the side provided wine, so I quickly noticed the change there. I heard that Qi Shaoxun's methods were cruel, and Xu Yu..." I was very worried that you didn't say it, but was swallowed by him. He said: "I hope you are safe. I can't guess what you want, but at least keep yourself safe."

Xu Yu walked up to him and punched him on the shoulder with a smile, which probably meant he knew.

Tong Lianwei also smiled. Although the smile was a bit far-fetched, he responded to Xu Yu's punch.

Neither of them noticed that a room on the second floor was opened and then closed.
