Raising a younger brother is not easy

Chapter 13

Herod nodded, "Sleep with Brother Lu, okay?" Mo Cheng seemed to sleep very well when he was next to him, but it was a special "honour" to find Herod like this.

"Okay." Mo Cheng's mood recovered a little.

In fact, the loneliness of Meaux just now was seen by Herod at all. At that time, Herod realized that Meaux might be more or less dependent and reluctant to give up here. Although it was a good sign, but He also saw Mo Cheng's worry, as if he was worried about when he would leave here, this anxiety could not help but haunt Mo Cheng, and made him feel even more distressed.

If Herod is a contradictory person, then Meaux is the source of his contradictions. Apart from him, Herod never makes constant choices and hesitates.Herod was vigorous and resolute in his official affairs, but that didn't mean he was indifferent. His tenderness was all placed on one person, and it seemed that he could never give more to others than he gave to Meaux.

What happens when you flirt

The two were lying on the same bed, and Mo Cheng lay obediently in his own place, not daring to take any part of Herod's place, half of his face was covered by the quilt, his eyes were rolling darkly, and there was no light in the darkness.

In order to make Meaux sleep in a better environment, Herod covered the surrounding area with no light when he slept.

But tonight, Mocheng still hasn't fallen asleep after so long. Although the room is very dark, Herod can still feel it, because Mocheng's sleeping position after falling asleep is very familiar, but today he is still lying obediently, So he decided that the little guy was still awake.

"Can't sleep?" Herod asked softly after a long time.

Mo Cheng nodded, and responded softly, "I can't stop thinking about things."

"Why are you thinking so seriously?" Herod tucked in the quilt for Meuse and pulled the quilt off his face.

"Just thinking about something." To be precise, he thought about a lot of things, including what plans he had for leaving in the future, what he wanted to do, and whether he wanted to go back to his second uncle and aunt?etc.Mo Cheng slowly thought about it one by one, but he still didn't finish it. He always felt that he owed them. After all, he still had the grace of nurturing. Conscience escaped, but he didn't want to go back at all, there was a nightmare he didn't want to turn back.

"I don't want to say that I won't force you, but don't be too anxious." Herod brushed the hair from Mo Cheng's forehead lightly a few times.

Mo Cheng hesitated for a moment, then looked up at Herod, "Brother Lu, do you think... I'm disgusting?"

Herod was confused by this sentence, disgusting?Where does this come from?Although I couldn't see Mo Cheng's face clearly, but listening to the tone of voice, I can probably imagine "Why do you ask that? Did you get bullied?"

"It's okay, just ask me." Mo Cheng turned his back to Herod, but Herod also stood aside.

When a person answers with "nothing", it means that he does not have the courage to tell the truth.

This was the first time, the first time that Mo Cheng was perfunctory to him, not telling him the truth, guessed that it might be related to the past, but couldn't find out what it was for.

Herod reached out to touch Mocheng's head, but he retracted halfway, he didn't know how to answer him, he didn't know where his pain came from, he just reached out and hugged his body, "Sleep at ease, rest assured I am here."

Herod has been investigating the past of Meaux. Although many things are known, there is only one thing that can't be found out, or it is very likely that only this little guy in front of him knows why Meaux committed suicide and what happened. He didn't know anything about the matter, and Mo Cheng didn't say a word at all. He was heartbroken, but there was nothing he could do.

Mo Cheng grabbed the quilt by his side, turned his back to Herod, rested one hand on his head, pursed his lips tightly and refused to make a sound, he opened his eyes slightly, some crystal liquid overflowed in the narrow eye sockets, but And very stubborn no overflow.

"Trust me." He put his big hand over Mo Cheng's eyes, covering those tearful eyes gently and softly, feeling the slight moisture in his palm, and his lips touched Mo Cheng's. Feeling the fragrance of his hair, Mo Cheng slowly let go of the hand that was holding the sheet, and the hand that was slightly smaller than Herod gently applied it to Herod's hand, and gently grasped it, So quiet, motionless.

After a long time, Herod hugged Mocheng gently in his arms, helped Mocheng find a more comfortable position, and put down his hand gently, Chengcheng's hand was still tightly holding Herod's hand.

Yes, he fell asleep, and the eyelashes still had a bit of moisture left by tears. Herod couldn't help but love him in his arms. The changes in this child were beyond Herod's tolerance.

Ten years of blankness, he still stays at the beginning, Xiao Mocheng has never held back tears silently like now, at that time, whenever he was sad, he would stumble and run to his side, and yelled "" Brother..." Immediately afterwards, he got into Herod's arms and wept uncontrollably, his little nose and eyebrows turned red every time he cried.

It was sleepless again, and Herod just quietly watched Chengcheng in his arms fall asleep, and it was dawn before he knew it. Except for Mocheng, I believe that no one else could let Herod watch like this for a whole night.

"Good morning." Mocheng woke up as soon as the time came, and raised his head to look at Herod who was hugging him without any feeling of rejection.

Herod habitually brushed the hair on Chengcheng's forehead, "Chengcheng, are you awake?" Compared to before, Herod seemed closer to Chengcheng, not only saying "good morning", but more Kind of doted on.

"Wake up." Mo Cheng nodded, and Herod got up first and took the clothes prepared last night to help Cheng Cheng change.Chengcheng felt strange more than once, saying that he could put on clothes himself, but Herod would still help him put them on. Mocheng felt like he had turned back to the age of a child and needed help from his family to put on clothes and hold him in his arms. that time.

When Mo Cheng finished his breakfast and was about to pick up his schoolbag and go to school, he suddenly stopped, "Brother Lu, I can go to school by myself." After last night, Mo Cheng seemed to call "Brother Lu" more frequently. Without a subject, at least now.

Herod knew that Meaux felt that he was causing trouble to him. Picking up and dropping off school was already quite a hassle, but from Mocheng’s point of view, it was even more troublesome, although he didn’t know that Herod was enjoying it, “Then I’ll let the driver Lao Wang take you ?"

"Hmm... okay." Mo Cheng thought for a while, and it was better than Herod delivering it himself, at least it was the job of the driver, but Herod still had to do things himself.

Mo Cheng walked a few steps and turned around again. Herod smiled, "What's wrong with you today? Do you not want to go to school?"

"No." Mocheng shook his head hastily, "Can I participate in the sports meeting?" Mocheng knew that Herod had always attached great importance to these things because of his body, so the sports meeting should ask for the consent of the person who is raising him now .

"What project are you going to participate in?" Herod asked seriously after taking a sip of coffee.

"Students robbed all the places in many events. I chose the high jump and 3000 meters." Meaux reported truthfully, almost preventing Herod from spitting out his coffee.

"Wait." Herod stopped short. "Are you sure?"

"En." Mo Cheng nodded.

"You can do things like long jump, can't you skip rope?" Herod asked with a smile, but he had already begun to object in his heart. What if the 3000-meter long-distance run is too much for Meuse?Although they are all boys, not every boy can accept it. Herod still remembers the joke that a boy made in a long-distance race in college.

That boy was his classmate, usually sporting a sunny look, with a grinning mouth, but that time he was really angry and chose the 3000-meter long-distance race, but he lay down on the ground in the middle of the sports meeting that day and stopped running, shouting "" I’m not running away, it’s more painful than giving birth to a child!” Since then, this joke has become a well-known historical joke in this school.

Although it's a joke, it's enough to react. Some people really can't bear to run down 3000 meters. Can Mo Cheng's body support it?What if something happens at that time?What if it relapses after falling into the water without recovering?

"Don't you want it?" Mo Cheng could see that Herod was a little frightened the moment he heard it. Indeed, for Herod, he would never choose this project for himself.

"Not this one either, can you bear it?" Herod asked Mo Cheng back, and Mo Cheng shook his head, "I don't know, but I want to try."

After a while, Herod let out a sigh of relief, "Go, practice hard, brother Lu can practice with you."

As soon as these words came out, Mocheng's eyes suddenly lit up. He never expected that Herod would agree. Herod paid great attention to Mocheng's physical condition. No matter how much he pampered him, he would stick to the small details like drinking milk. , let alone 3000 meters, but I didn't expect Herod to agree and still support him so much. "good."

Since Herod agreed, Mocheng can be seen running every day on the school playground. Xiao Xin said that he would practice running with Mocheng, but Xiao Xin is a big slob, and he is used to being hurt by someone. Without such great perseverance and motivation, he has been running for a long time watching Mocheng, but Xiao Xin didn't know how many times he rested.

"You eat more than others, so why is your physical strength not as good as others?" Bai Xiaobai's voice came from behind, and when he turned his head, he saw Bai Xiaobai standing behind Xiao Xin who was still unrestrained, and Xiao Xin didn't bother to fight back. This kind of Bai's language attack was useless to him, and he just sat on the ground without moving.

"Chengcheng doesn't seem to be in good shape.
