Yu Chengsong walked briskly towards the alley entrance. As he concentrated his mind, his hearing and sense of smell improved dramatically.
There are two smells of blood in the air, one is real, the other is…
The indistinct groans and moans of pain in his ears became increasingly quieter, as if something was strangling their throats and they couldn’t struggle free.
The sound of raindrops hitting the umbrella was so loud that Yu Chengsong simply put away the umbrella and walked in the rain.
There’s nothing to get wet anymore anyway.
“Oh f*ck! Help…”
“Lu-lu-lu… Lunatic!”
“I won’t dare to do it again, never again… uh—”
Yu Chengsong was in a very calm mood when he turned into the alley. In his calmness, there was a hint of anticipation that he couldn’t explain. But when he saw the scene clearly through the rain, he couldn’t help but whisper, “F*ck”.
There were eight people, six and a half were lying on the ground, and the only one standing was holding the half’s hair in his hand and slamming him against the wall.
“Clang—”
Yu Chengsong’s scalp felt numb.
The half lying also fell down.
Yin Gu let go of him and wiped his hands in the rain silently. Rain mixed with blood flowed down his fingertips. His white shirt was spotted with red. His black hair was pushed back, and his eyes were indifferent. The two temperaments of madness and calmness coexisted harmoniously in the same person.
Yu Chengsong felt that coming out tonight was an absolutely correct decision.
Yin Gu acted decisively. He would not have been able to do this job unless he was paid more than 500 yuan. Yin Gu’s calmness actually gave him a sense of familiarity.
Hearing the voice, Yin Gu slowly turned his head. The street lights flickered under the rain. From Yu Chengsong’s perspective, he was completely wrapped in scarlet pheromones, like a pair of bloody hands, pressing tightly on the throats of the seven people on the ground, making it impossible for them to open their mouths and shout for help.
Yin Gu looked at him silently with a dark look in his eyes.
Yu Chengsong spread out his hands and was about to say “Have I ruined your plan again?” when Yin Gu suddenly laughed.
The corners of his lips were slightly raised, his eyes were gentle, and the blood on his cheeks dripped down his jawline. “Deskmate, take me to the infirmary?”
Yu Chengsong stared at him for a while, then suddenly laughed. He folded his arms and leaned against the wall, raised his eyebrows, and said, “Let’s go, right away!”
The scarlet blood completely disappeared, and a trace of fatigue flashed across Yin Gu’s face. Just as he took a step, the gangster who was lying behind him suddenly jumped up, took out a knife from his arms, and stabbed him in the back.
Yu Chengsong frowned, and the next second, orange-red pheromones burst out from the back of his neck, bypassing Yin Gu and slamming into the gangster. The situation was urgent, and he couldn’t control his strength. The gangster, who was an ordinary alpha, rolled his eyes, foam came out of his mouth, and he fell to the ground like a piece of rag.
He won’t be able to wake up for four or five hours, and he will have to lie down for a few days after he wakes up.
“Wow, such a noob ah.” Yu Chengsong stretched his neck and looked at Yin Gu. “What’s going on?”
Yin Gu unconsciously clenched his left hand, looked at the alley entrance, and smiled helplessly: “If I said I was doing something righteous, do you believe me?”
The victim ran too fast and didn’t even try to say thank you. Now he has no witnesses, even if he wants to explain.
Yu Chengsong followed his gaze and saw nothing on the street except heavy rain.
Yin Gu has now become a good boy again, and his every word, action, glance, and smile are in accordance with the rules.
“I don’t believe.” Yu Chengsong narrowed his eyes, “Do you want to hit me?”
It was so hard to see it once, and within two minutes, he was like a good kid again. Yu Chengsong’s mood went through ups and downs, and it was all a pity now.
“I can’t beat you ah.” Yin Gu looked at his hand holding the umbrella, “Why did you put the umbrella away?”
“The noise was too loud. It originally didn’t even last for two minutes, and then they were already scared to death.” Yu Chengsong said meaningfully, “What a pity.”
Yin Gu couldn’t help smiling as he looked at him, his eyes were soft.
“What are you laughing at?” Yu Chengsong glanced at his left hand. “Is it not fully healed? You didn’t even get wet. Take a bath and find a clinic to treat it.”
“Where is it?” Yin Gu walked out.
“There’s none here.” Yu Chengsong glanced at the people on the ground again. Some of them looked familiar, but none of them were good people. Yin Gu said he was brave and righteous, and he believed it. Yin Gu said the victim ran away and left the hero behind, and he also believed him. Isn’t that the nature of human beings? “Do you remember the milk tea shop?”
“Drink milk tea?” Yin Gu asked.
“En.” Yu Chengsong said, “There’s a small clinic on the street next to that street. It’s quite cheap.”
After that, neither of them said anything else and walked towards the hot pot restaurant side by side. The restaurant was closed, but there was a place to shelter from the rain at the door.
Although there was no need for the two of them to shelter from the rain, but they still walked over together.
While leaning against the store door, Yu Chengsong habitually reached into his pocket, took out a cigarette box, and pressed his fingertips into it, leaving a dent.
It’s been soaked by the rain, and water could even drip out if he twists it.
“You can take a ride there later.” Yu Chengsong broke the silence, took out a cigarette, and played with it.
“En.” Yin Gu said, and after a while, he tilted his head to look at him. “What are you doing out so late?”
“To see you doing something brave and righteous.” Yu Chengsong moved his fingertips, and the cigarette butt was ejected. It fell to the ground and was smashed to pieces by raindrops. “What about you? Did you come out specially to do a good deed?”
“Me… maybe.” Yin Gu laughed, the corners of his lips curled up with a hint of sarcasm. “If that’s the case, it doesn’t seem bad either.”
“Two pitiful fellows.” Yu Chengsong smiled with a gloating look. Although one thousand enemies were killed but eight hundred of one’s own were lost1It means that if you fight head-on with others, it is not only the enemy that suffers heavy losses, but both sides will suffer losses., “Is it a family matter?”
“En.” Yin Gu didn’t deny it. His eyelashes were wet from the rain and half drooped. The loneliness between his eyebrows made people’s hearts tighten, but the corners of his mouth were still curved. “I got blamed for no reason. It’s just a sudden disaster.”
“What’s the blame?” Yu Chengsong frowned. He was more sensitive to this kind of plot than ordinary people. “Did they misunderstand you?”
“I have a younger brother,” Yin Gu said, “A twin brother, in—”
“Twin brother?” Yu Chengsong turned his head suddenly, his fingers tightened, the cigarette box was crushed, and he raised his voice and frowned and asked, “Did he bully you?”
A look of surprise flashed across Yin Gu’s face, then he covered his mouth with his fist and turned his head away.
Yu Chengsong could see from his shaking shoulders that he was laughing, and he realized that he had overreacted. He threw away the cigarette box in despair, leaned against the door, and looked at the sky. “Laugh after you’ve finished the story. I get angry easily when my curiosity is not satisfied.”
“En…” Yin Gu slowed down, but the smile on his face did not diminish. “He…didn’t bully me, but someone else bullied him, and my dad asked me if I did it.”
“Multiple shadow clones?” Yu Chengsong laughed. “Your clone flew over there and beat him up? Your dad even watches Naruto ah.”
“Maybe.” Yin Gu said, “Or maybe I paid someone to beat him up.”
“Hire me.” Yu Chengsong stretched out his hand. “Five hundred, and I’ve even thought about where to bury him already.”
Yin Gu started laughing again, his phoenix eyes were so charming when he laughed. Before Yu Chengsong could raise his hand to scold him, he said, “Sorry, I didn’t mean it… Has anyone ever told you that you talk in a very interesting way?”
“No.” Yu Chengsong glanced at him and said in a very pretentious manner, “No one dares.”
“Thank you.” Yin Gu took a deep breath and looked at him with a smile. “I feel much better now, really.”
“Kneel down, Dad is tired of saying this already.” Yu Chengsong stretched lazily, his clothes were sticky, and the breeze made him feel cold. “Are you going home?”
“I won’t go.” Yin Gu said lightly, “All my family members are dead.”
“Then, I hope that your wish comes true.” Yu Chengsong couldn’t help but look at him.
Yin Gu wrung his wet sleeves, the expression on his profile was silent and gentle, and the concealed indifference made him frown slightly.
“Do you want to come to my house?” Yu Chengsong heard himself say.
Yin Gu was stunned for a moment, then nodded. “Okay.”
“Let’s go.” Yu Chengsong felt relieved for some reason and opened his umbrella. “Let’s go to the clinic first.”
The knife wound on Yin Gu’s palm healed very quickly. Although it had been washed in water for who knows how long and had turned a little white, but it was no big deal.
The doctor re-bandaged it, prescribed an anti-inflammatory ointment, and told him not to get it wet.
Yu Chengsong only reacted after entering the clinic.
Impulsive.
Apart from Zhou Zheyu, no other classmates have ever come to his house. After all, the family atmosphere is too disharmonious, and if his mother has a seizure, it can even have the effect of a horror movie battle royale.
He didn’t care what others said about him, but when that person changed to Yin Gu… he didn’t know why he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Neither up nor down.
“Thank you, I’ve transferred the money.” Yin Gu paid the money and waved his hand in front of him. “What are you thinking about?”
“Nothing, let’s go.” Yu Chengsong said as he walked out.
Just treat it as an exchange of Yin Gu’s secrets. If it doesn’t work, he will just lock him up in the room and ask him a few more truths to achieve a secret balance…
He’s also pretty awesome to come up with such a stupid idea.
When going upstairs, Yu Chengsong said, “Actually, I have prepared a surprise for you—”
“Is it Uncle and Auntie?” Yin Gu said.
Yu Chengsong glanced at him and said, “Should I say you are awesome?”
Yin Gu laughed. “Can you change the word?”
Yu Chengsong gave a thumbs up: “Super awesome.”
Yu Chengsong took out the key and opened the door. The living room was brightly lit. His mother was sitting on the sofa with her back to them. She was wearing red silk pajamas and looked like a ghost seeking life in the middle of the night. She did not turn around when she heard the door open but continued to watch the TV, which was not turned on.
Yu Chengsong took a pair of his slippers and handed them to Yin Gu, whispering, “Surprise?”
Yin Gu smiled and said nothing.
It was not until they changed their shoes and walked past the sofa to the bedroom that Mother Yu suddenly turned around, her eyes purple, and stared at him like a psychopath: “You still know how to come back, you still know how to come back, you still know how to come back!”
The tone of the last sentence was too high. Yu Chengsong covered his ears and paused for a moment before pointing at Yin Gu and saying, “My classmate, Yin Gu.”
Without waiting for his mother to speak, he pointed at her again and said to Yin Gu: “My mother, biological one, although she is old and ugly, but she still looks a bit like me.”
“Hello, Auntie.” Yin Gu smiled at Mother Yu.
“Get out!” Yu Ma glared at Yin Gu indiscriminately.
“Definitely have to go out.” Yu Chengsong stood in front of Yin Gu. “Can he still live in our house for another year? You raise him?”
“The friends you made?” His mother suddenly said.
“Friend?” Yu Chengsong was stunned. He had just introduced Yin Gu as ‘my classmate’, and the only person who could be considered his real friend was Zhou Zheyu, so he didn’t know how to respond when his mother said this. However, the battles over the years had made him develop a conditioned reflex, so he put his arm around Yin Gu’s shoulders and smiled ambiguously, “Yes! My boyfriend! Do you want to congratulate me and give me a red envelope?”
Yin Gu glanced at him and raised his eyebrows slightly.
Yu Chengsong blew him a kiss.
His mother’s face suddenly became uglier, and she looked at Yin Gu with a frown.
Yu Chengsong didn’t intend to embarrass her again, so he kept the same posture, hugged Yin Gu, and quickly walked to his bedroom, opened the door, and pushed him in.
His clothes were soaked, and the room was hot and humid. Yu Chengsong ran straight to the closet and said, “Why don’t you wear my pajamas? Black, blue, white, green?”
“Black one.”
Yin Gu looked around the not-so-small bedroom.
The decoration is very simple. There are no posters on the walls like the middle school boys of this age. There is no decoration at all. There is an ordinary desk, wardrobe, double bed… and various unusual stuffed toys placed and hung on the bed, table, and cabinet.
The largest one is almost as tall as him, it is a brown, short-haired bear, leaning against the chair beside the bed. The smallest one can be hung on a mobile phone, it is a pink peach stuck on the top of the wardrobe… They are placed very arbitrarily, or rather, they are not placed at all, they are just thrown there.
Yin Gu tried hard not to laugh out loud, these things were a far cry from Yu Chengsong’s “I’m very low-key, but I still rule the world” demeanor at school.
Did he break into a Chinese legend’s special hobby…
The orange cat pillow on the bed is quite cute but a little faded, probably because he cuddles it every day when he sleeps.
Yu Chengsong sleep with the orange cat in his arms…
“Here, the underwear is new.” Yu Chengsong turned around and was stunned when he saw his expression. Then he realized something and threw the clothes at him. He walked to the bed, picked up the orange cat pillow, and said excitedly, “Do you like orange cats too?”
“En…” Yin Gu didn’t expect him to be so frank. “Do you like these?”
“You don’t like?” Yu Chengsong put the orange cat down, picked up a Husky neck pillow from the bedside, walked over, and handed it to him. “Touch it.”
Yin Gu reached out his hand and touched it. The touch at his fingertips was wonderful and soft, and he felt very relaxed when he sank into it… He had never paid attention to this kind of thing before. His parents told him that good children should like to study, and stuffed toys are external things… He naturally never thought about whether he liked it or not.
“It’s so soft.” He said.
“It’s soft, isn’t it?” Yu Chengsong pinched the husky’s head violently, showing no sign of cherishing it at all. “This little broken thing costs more than 200 yuan. If it’s not soft, I’ll smash his store.”
Yin Gu burst out laughing.
“What are you laughing at? Change your clothes quickly. Isn’t it uncomfortable to feel sticky?” Yu Chengsong said as he took off his coat and casually put it on a chair. The white T-shirt underneath was also soaked, and he casually lifted it off. The tight muscles on his back rose and fell with the movement. The waistline of his sweatpants was too low, and the waistline slid into the hem of his pants along his powerful waist muscles.
Yin Gu withdrew his gaze and took off his bloodstained T-shirt.
Just now, Yu Chengsong’s mother didn’t react at all when she saw him like this. Is it a mental problem…
There are two bathrooms in the house: one in the master bedroom, which is reserved for his mentally ill mother and son, and the other one outside.
Yu Chengsong now wanted to take a shower very urgently, but Yin Gu was the guest and seemed to be in a hurry too.
He looked at Yin Gu, who had taken off his shirt to reveal his six-pack abs, and resisted the urge to whistle, not looking into the two remaining packs in his pants. He asked sincerely, “Do you have any hidden illnesses?”
“En?” Yin Gu was holding the T-shirt and thinking about where to put it. He looked up when he heard it. “For example?”
Yu Chengsong pointed at his lower body and said, “Developmental disorders—” It’s good.
“It was very good.” Yin Gu smiled. “Would you like to try it?”
“Then I can be at ease.” Yu Chengsong picked up his pajamas and said wickedly, “Otherwise, I’m afraid you’ll feel inferior to me.”
