Chapter 37

"On New Year's Day, your grandfather's secretary called me and asked me to send your brother and sister to live there for a while during the winter vacation."

Although Shen Lang pretended not to care, but when he heard the news, it was as if a block of ice tens of degrees below zero was suddenly placed in his heart. The biting cold made him shiver all over.But Shen Lang suddenly laughed, "You're so powerful, what does mom say?"

But before Shen Zui could speak, I saw Shen Lang slapped himself, "Forget it, I didn't say that, dad, you don't have to answer, I don't want to know. Dad, what do you say?" , look at the meaning, Dad, you were rejected severely, do you know the reason?"

Hearing his son's very flat tone and his mentality of not being able to feel any changes, Shen Zui even wondered whether he was too nervous or whether he really didn't take this matter to heart, "I want to I have called several times, but they were all rejected. I know that even if I force you to go, I am afraid they will not let you in. In all fairness, I can't accept this fact, but I have no way to change it, Xiaolang , do you think I am a wimp, in fact, I have always felt this way in my heart these days, Dad feels sorry for you."

Shen Lang shook his head, "Dad, I don't think there is any reason for you to blame yourself so much. In my mind, you and I are very proud of you. It is already very important for you to support such a big family by yourself. It’s not easy, you have given up many, many opportunities over the years for us, and I see all of these, I understand your father.”

Shen Zui was speechless at this time, the man was determined to die, just because he hadn't reached the point of sadness, but today his son actually enlightened him as a father, speaking of what his father did really wrong Usually a failure.

After thinking about it for a while, Shen Lang still walked to the front of his safe, did not know where to 'feel' out a key, twisted the code a few times, then twisted the key, and heard a very loud sound. With a dull sound, the door of the safe opened slowly. Shen Lang took out another small key, opened the inner door, and took out two bank cards from inside.

"What is this?" Shen Zui said with a somewhat angry smile, "Why are you going to start running the house, have you paid me my salary now?"

"It's better to have everything than to have it yourself. At least you don't have to be low-key when you are on other people's land. It's good to fill up the scene. Besides, we are father and son. It's not like others who are so inferior. What do you care about me?" Two bank cards were put into father's hand, "One is 20 yuan and the other is 50 yuan, father, take it first!"

"Hey, Xiaolang, it seems that I really haven't seen you through. I wonder if you are my son?"

"If Dad, you don't feel at ease, you can go to have a test, don't you know?" Shen Lang said jokingly: "If there is really no place to spend, Dad will buy something for grandpa'grandma' and 'grandma'. Well, it’s also the capital city, so it seems that this year only you and I will go back to our hometown for the New Year, and it feels a bit deserted!”

The father and son chatted in the room for a long, long time, until the room was almost dark and almost invisible, Shen Zui came out, and Shen Zheng and Shen Nan, who were already numb, wanted to run away. He couldn't run anymore, and was caught by Shen Zui.

Seeing the two children who were about to rush in, Shen Zui grabbed them both, and after closing the door, he directly dragged them into his room.With a gloomy expression, he said, "Did you both hear it? I wanted to wait until later, but it's good for you to know."

"Dad, what is the reason for this? Why did you do this and threw my brother out alone? I can't figure out why? I'm going to see my brother. He must be in a bad mood right now. Even we It's extremely uncomfortable for a brother and sister to hear it, let alone him!" Shen Nan struggled desperately, but she didn't let go of her intoxicated hand.

"Come back." The intoxicated voice was also a little hoarse, probably because he smoked too much in the afternoon, "Let Xiaolang be quiet for a while, don't disturb him now, although he is very calm, but I can I could feel his inner struggle."

"Actually speaking, among the three of you children, the one who reassures me the most is Xiaolang's. He is more calm and mature than the two of you, but for some reason, he always behaves very well. Silent, very lonely, even as a father, I can't find any reason."

Shen Zheng thought for a while, then said thoughtfully, "Dad, could it be because of Mom?"

Now not only Shen Zui was a little surprised, but even Shen Nan who was next to him looked at her brother in surprise, and then Shen Zui said: "Probably not, even you don't know your mother's situation, how did he know, besides If your grandpa and 'grandma' 'grandma', they wouldn't tell him about it."

"But..." Shen Zheng glanced at his younger sister, and said through gritted teeth, "But I know he has a picture of his mother, and I secretly saw him looking at the picture in the middle of the night, thinking For a long time, I said it one-sidedly at that time, but Xiaolang denied it flatly. Dad and sister, both of you also know that Xiaolang's room is generally not allowed to be approached by others without his permission. Yes, there is one more thing, who has the key to his safe in our family!"

Shen Nan looked at her brother resentfully over there, and Shen Zheng was also full of indebtedness. If it wasn't for this time, she would definitely keep this as a secret in her heart.She saw Shen Nan raised her foot high, although Shen Zheng could get out of the way, but she just turned her head and gritted her teeth fiercely.

"Okay, you two don't fight anymore, and spend a good time with my brother these two days."

Shen Lang sat alone in the corner of the wall, with both hands deeply 'inserted' in his hair, all the emotions of confusion, resentment, annoyance, depression, etc. all rushed to his heart at once, Inadvertently, a few strands of hair fell down leisurely, and a faint blood stain slowly left along the corner of the mouth.

At this moment, although there is still a trace of thoughts in Shen Lang's mind that he wants to calm himself down, his thoughts are completely out of control at this time, and the few years of lonely waiting and expectation are only the last window. When he was young, he was kicked out directly. No matter how mature and strong Shen Lang is, he is still just a child in this respect.

All of a sudden, Shen Lang felt that the blood in his body was churning, and his head began to be in a trance, and some scenes that were usually hidden in his heart began to flash in front of him.At this time, the sweet potatoes and potatoes that were lying on the ground seemed to feel something, they all slowly stood up straight, and then walked to Shen Lang's side, using their heads with their heads and claws with their claws.

If Shen Lang's master is by his side now, he must understand that the little guy is a little crazy, and his nerves have begun to become a little abnormal. If he hastened, he will definitely be saved. Really hopeless.

At this moment, I saw that Shen Lang's left hand seemed to be on fire suddenly, and there was a strange flash of light, wrapping the entire palm inside, the flame turned from red to yellow, then from yellow to blue, and finally The blue 'color' returned to the red 'color' again, but as the light's color changed, the light was gradually shrinking, and finally it was only the size of a grain of rice.

However, when Shen Lang's palm changed suddenly, he suddenly became sober in his head. He looked at the change in his palm a little dullly and curiously, knowing that the light disappeared at the end. Under the light of the glass dharma body, Shen Lang clearly saw a red mole faintly flashing on the position of his palm.

After Shen Lang was done again, thinking back on the whole process of the matter, he couldn't help being drenched in cold sweat. If it wasn't for the abnormal change in his palm, he might not be the same as his situation at that time went on. Becoming a fool can also become a dementia, is that the result I want?If that's the case, what kind of mood would my father, brother and sister feel, and what would happen to my grandfather and grandma?

Thinking about it, Shen Lang suddenly felt fortunate for a while, and stretched out his palm involuntarily, looked at it blankly for a while, and then said to himself: "How can you know it's not a blessing if you lose your horse?" Having such an opportunity today does not mean that there will be such a blessing in the future." After thinking about it, Shen Lang stood up involuntarily, walked to the bedside position, opened the window slightly, and the cool breeze blew over , Shen Lang couldn't help shivering.

At this time, Shen Lang realized that his whole body was basically soaked, but he didn't notice it. Thinking of this, Shen Lang quickly closed the window.He walked to his chair, opened the drawer and found an unopened pack of cigarettes, found a lighter and lit it for himself, the bitter taste immediately filled his entire mouth, fortunately he was not It was the first time I smoked, and I secretly smoked two before.

But after taking two puffs, Shen Lang realized that there was no ashtray in his room!Moreover, many of his rooms are filled with books and documents, and there are no suitable materials for ashtrays. After thinking about it, Shen Lang squeezed the cigarette holder and quietly opened the door, but when he opened the door just now, he saw that he was already standing at the door father, and the doorway of his brother and sister's room also has the slightest light revealing it.

Dad also looked at him in surprise, and said in a loving and distressed voice, "Why did you stop smoking?" As he said, he grabbed it.

Shen Lang scratched his head, "If you feel a bit suffocated, I want to come out and find an ashtray. I never wanted to be caught by you, Dad." After talking late, he smiled at Dad, "Don't worry, Dad, I It's okay, besides, it's not the first time I smoked, I took two before when you weren't paying attention."

"You boy!" Looking at his son's expression, and listening to his voice and tone, Shen Zui knew that he had already survived the most uncomfortable time, although he said that his heart might still need a period of recuperation, But I knew that he was no longer in the way, so I thought about it, looked around intoxicatedly, flicked the ashtray in the ashtray not far away, and returned the cigarette to Shen Lang, "Young and young A little bit of this thing will not do you any good or your brother or sister."

Shen Lang took the ashtray, took a peek at the doorway of the two rooms where there was a trace of light, smiled slightly, put out the cigarette in the ashtray, but put the ashtray in his own inside the room. "Dad, I took a shower. I was bored in the house for a while, and my body was covered with sweat. You and your brothers and sisters should also go to bed early! Dad, you haven't had a good rest these days."

At this time, Shen Zheng and Shen Nan's room was also opened. Both of them were wearing pajamas and walked over with smiles on their faces. The four of them hugged each other tightly. Shen Zheng and Shen Nan felt it immediately The younger brother's body was all wet, and there was no dry place. At this time, Shen Lang also let go of his arms, and walked towards the bathroom with a smile.

Looking at Shen Lang who entered the bathroom, Shen Zheng and Shen Nan stretched out their hands, their hands were wet with sweat, and they looked at their father again, "Why is my brother sweating so much? It's like pulling it out of the water."

Shen Zui looked in the direction of the bathroom with a painful expression on his face, "Xiaolang has always vented his feelings alone, and only he knows his pain, but he is also strong, well, you guys also rest! "After talking late, Shen Zui walked into his room with a lonely face.

During the whole night, except for Shen Lang, none of the other three people slept well. The three of them got up in turn and ran to Shen Lang's door, or even the place in front of the bed, to see if he would show up. What an unexpected situation, and tonight is also very strange, Shen Lang didn't close the door of his room as tightly as before.

At four o'clock in the morning, Shen Lang went to exercise as usual, until he walked out of the house, Shen Zui, Shen Zheng, and Shen Nan laughed at each other, and Shen Zheng and Shen Nan basically opened their eyes at this time. He couldn't open his eyes anymore, he 'touched' his bed completely by his own feeling, he even forgot to put on the quilt, luckily Shen Zui helped them in the end.

After Shen Lang came back in the morning, he made an exception and didn't wake them up as usual.
