Bai Xinyu said: “It has nothing to do with my brother, if I was influenced by him, I wouldn’t be here now... Anyway, this has nothing to do with me and my brother, Mom, just give me some time to deal with it, okay.”
Li Weizhi closed her eyes and said, “I don’t know if I should regret sending you to the army now, you’ve gotten better but you’ve been hurt again and... But what’s the point of regretting it, Xinyu, why are you so ignorant, if your dad finds out, he’ll beat you to death!”
Bai Xinyu wasn’t really worried about what his dad would do to him, his dad has always been a pragmatic person, when his brother and Li Yu got together, his mum cried out that she didn’t understand, his dad felt awkward at first but after hearing Li Yu’s background, his attitude changed completely, he’s just worried that his mum is mad at him now. He felt his heart sink, he knelt down by his mother’s leg and whispered: “Mum, don’t be angry, I’m actually very confused, I don’t know what to do now, if you get angry, I’ll feel even worse.”
Li Weizhi looked at the look of resignation and pleading in his eyes, her heart ached, she touched Bai Xinyu’s shoulder, the once thin shoulder, now so strong that she could not hold it in one hand, she could not help but think of her son as a child but she knew better than anyone else, he had grown up, into a She knew better than anyone that he had grown up, into a reliable, responsible man and that she was increasingly unable to influence his decisions and that frightened her.
Bai Xinyu tilts his head in Li Weizhi’s lap and murmurs: “Mum, give me time...” Give me some time, let me decide.
Li Weizhi sighed, her face is full of sadness.
Bai Xinyu lies on his bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, he has been in this position for a long time since his mother left, his mind is blank, he has hardly thought about anything, he feels his life has become a tangled mess and he still hasn’t found a way to untangle it.
Outside the window it was pouring rain, with a rumble of thunder and lightning, his heart was as cloudy as the weather.
He doesn’t know what time it is, his phone rang, he picks it up and is not surprised to find it is Yu Fengcheng. He remembered the first time he and Huo Jie had met, Huo Jie had asked him if Yu Fengcheng could chase someone, the answer he had in mind was no, Yu Fengcheng had obviously never chased anyone, he didn’t know the basic techniques of retreating to advance, of trying to catch someone, of opening and closing, if he wanted to chase someone, he would do it better than Yu Fengcheng doesn’t know how to please people, so he’s just as hard as he is. But even so, it’s still a mess for him. He stared at the name on the caller ID for two seconds, answers the phone, put it to his ear but doesn’t know what to say, at this moment when he feels so tired, he probably... just to hear Yu Fengcheng’s voice.
“Xinyu, still awake.” Yu Fengcheng’s magnetic voice burrowed into his eardrums, “I’ve had a long day, I haven’t had any time to myself since daylight, I’ve only had time to call you now.”
Bai Xinyu gave a “hmm”.
“By the way, I got my rehab schedule confirmed today, with the hospital certificate, I can leave school without taking time off when I need rehab, so I can visit you.”
“My mother knows.” Bai Xinyu blurted out, his voice sounded calm but his fists clenched involuntarily.
Yu Fengcheng froze, after a long silence and said in a quiet voice: “Yes... about us?”
“Yu Fengcheng, when I was with you, I never thought about the future, did you?”
“I said I did from the beginning, you wouldn’t believe me but from the moment I was sure I liked you, until now, I think about it every day, my future has to include you.”
