"Brother, did you put the bottle of antiswelling medicine under my desk with unknown origin?"

Hearing this, the chopsticks in Qiao Chen's hand fell off with a slam, and he kept shaking his head to deny it.

"Brother, I vaguely remember when I was a child... there was always a boy lying in the corner of the wall downstairs of my house... peeking at me, are you?"

Qiao Chen silenced the rice while shaking his head hard to deny it. His actions were so exaggerated that Lu Chuan could see his guilt at a glance.

"But you just said... have come to me."

While watching him eat, Chuchu slowly recalled: "On my birthday that year, I received a particularly strange gift, which was...a pair of flowery socks, hung on the handle of my house, and there was a note saying: Come out, birthday fun, are you...you?"

Qiao Chen swallowed a mouthful of the meal with difficulty, but shook his head and denied it.

Chuchu looked at the rich night outside the window, her voice hoarse, and said lightly: "But I always feel... that person is you."

Sweat beads oozing from Qiao Chen's face. He wiped his mouth with a tissue and said, "I'll go out and smoke a cigarette."

After saying that, he got up, ran out of the room in a hurry, and even almost bumped into Lu Chuan by the door.

"Be careful."

Lu Chuan smiled and helped him.

Qiao Chen blushed and ran to the end of the corridor.

He supported his hands by the window frame, looked up at the crescent moon hanging on the treetops, and took a deep breath.

When he was very young, he knew that he had a little girl.

At that time, I didn’t understand anything, why my father always didn’t go home, why my mother always made a big fuss, and why they didn’t like themselves.

If you don’t understand, but you will feel so sad. No one in this world seems to like him.

Later, during the quarrel between his parents, he vaguely heard something.

It seems that I have a sister named Chuchu.

After knowing and confirming the news, he felt that the blood in his body was about to burn. It turned out that he had a sister. It turned out that he was not alone in this world!

Later, through his observation, every time my father quarreled with his mother, the driver drove him away. My mother cried and said that he was looking for that bitch again.

Bitch?

What is it, is it out?

The driver must be aware of it!

He begged the driver for a long time, and the driver finally agreed to take him to see it, but he could only take a look, and then leave immediately.

Qiao Chen set out with excitement and trepidation. Before leaving, he deliberately put on his most handsome little black suit. He tidied up the small bow tie between his neck and touched it countless times along the way.

The car drove for more than half an hour and stopped at the entrance of an alley. He lay down by the car window, stretched his neck and looked out. He saw a woman who was ten thousand times more beautiful than a haggard mother, holding a little girl with white skin and a chubby face, walking into a residential building not far away. The girl wore two calf braids and shook them.

Without the driver's reminder, Qiao Chen felt almost the moment he saw her, it was her!

The little girl in front of her who was more cute than any girl he had ever seen was his sister!

Qiao Chen was so excited that he was so obsessed with it. He pressed the car window and shouted: "Get out!"

The driver immediately rushed over and covered his mouth: "My young master! You can calm down! This is to let me lose my job!"

Fortunately, the mother and daughter had already walked into the residential building and did not notice any abnormalities outside.

The driver warned Qiao Chen seriously that the mother and daughter must not let the mother and daughter know that you have been here!

Qiao Chen didn't understand why, and asked naively: "Why, isn't she my sister?"

In the class, Wang Xiaoming goes home with his sister every day after school... Why don’t he live with us when he goes out?

That beautiful aunt is the mother who comes out?

But why aren’t my sister and I the same mother?”

He has too many problems and too complicated.

The driver was speechless and shook his head and sighed: "You are still young now, and you will know when you grow up."

What a long and long journey to grow up.

Adults always say that you will understand when you grow up. It was not until later that Qiao Chen realized that growing up requires a price.

Tears and pain are the price of growing up.

"Anyway, you must not let Chuchu know that you have been here, otherwise Mr. Qiao will be angry and I will lose my job too. You don't want me to lose my job, right?"

The driver said seriously.

Of course Qiao Chen didn't want the driver to lose his job. After all, the driver was very nice to him and often brought him delicious food and fun. When he was fine, he even played basketball with him and took him to see his sister. He had almost become his best friend and his good brother!

However, this "brotherly and righteous" is ultimately incompatible with "My sister's desire".

After finding out the way, Qiao Chen didn't need the driver to drive him. He also came here secretly. During school time, he disguised himself as a child playing nearby and watched the beautiful aunt lead him out and pass by him.

Every time they passed by him, they could always bring a gust of fragrance. This gust of wind made him a little fascinated. The number of times he came here was getting more and more frequent.

He found that she was really super cute! There is no more cute girl in the world than to show off!

And such a cute girl is actually his sister!

He didn't need to envy the other boys in the class who had cute sisters, who were ten thousand times more adorable than them!

He could not control his urge to reach out and pinch her face desperately!

It was a sunny and warm afternoon. Qiao Chen was wearing a regular little suit, hiding at the corner of the wall, peeking at her. She was alone by the tree downstairs and sucking the ant nest with a stick alone.

Blood rushed into the brain, Qiao Chen finally sorted out his bow tie, and plucked up the courage to walk over. His cheeks were so shy that he was red and his heart was beating inconsistently.

Taking a deep breath, he reached out his hand tremblingly and tapped her shoulder gently.

I even thought about the lines and introduced myself solemnly like on TV.

"Hello, I am your elder brother, my name is Qiao..."

Chuchu turned around slowly and glanced at him in confusion.

"ah!!"

Caught off guard, she screamed in surprise.

The high-decibel scream made Qiao Chen stunned, and he felt like he had done something big wrong! He hurriedly stepped forward and covered her mouth: "Shh! Come and go, don't call me! I'm your elder brother! I'll come and see you..."

At this moment, a strong little boy ran over and pulled him apart, spreading his arms to protect him in front of him.

"Get out!"

The boy puffed his cheeks and stared at him fiercely, shouting at him with a fierce look: "Don't bully her!"

Qiao Chen opened his mouth slightly and closed it blankly. He saw him hiding behind the strong little boy, his eyes flashing, his body trembling slightly, and he was frightened.

The little boy pushed him hard again, pushed him down, and then took him out.

Qiao Chen lay on the grass and looked at the back leading the boy away, and suddenly felt very sad.

That person was protecting her like an older brother, but she was obviously her brother! Why was she afraid of herself and being so good to others?

Qiao Chen couldn't figure it out.

Later, he came here quietly several times. When the driver said his birthday, he used his pocket money to buy a pair of rainbow-colored flowered socks in the store. He thought that socks were super cute and wanted to give them to his super cute sister.

He didn't dare to give it to her in person because she seemed to be very repulsive of herself, so he hung the socks at their doorstep and wrote a small note in a crooked font:

Come out and have fun on your birthday.

——Brother

The gift was given in the morning. Qiao Chen was excited at school all day. After school, he couldn't wait to go downstairs to go out to the monk and squat. He was carrying a chocolate-flavored birthday cake in his hand, wanting to give it to her, and by the way, he could see if she was wearing those rainbow socks.

However, this time, he not only saw the beautiful aunt, but also saw his father Qiao Yanshang.

He held one hand and looked dull, and carried a big cake in the other hand, three or four times larger than his own cake.

The beautiful aunt held his hand, and the three of them happily entered the residential building like a family.

Qiao Chenmao was behind the tree, looking at their backs as they walked away, and her excitement and happiness gradually cooled down.

My father never hugged him like this.

But he was holding his sister and carrying a big cake to celebrate her birthday.

And on his birthday, he never was at home.

He had never seen that kind smile, that kind, happy smile on his father's face.

He only had cold eyes for him and only had some disgust for some unknown reason.

Although he is young, he can understand people's eyes and tell what is like and what is annoying.

The first spring rain of this year floated up in the sky. Qiao Chen touched his face for some reason.

At that moment, his young mind felt two complex emotions at the same time.

Sadness, jealousy.

His mind was like a movie, replaying his mother's hysteria and the vase was shaking. His father slammed the door and left, and his ears were filled with storms.
