Xia You Arbor: Looking to Heaven

Chapter 77 The Boy on the Rooftop, Please Don’t Cry (1)
In the evening, Beethoven's "For Alice" was played on the school radio. Accompanied by the cheerful piano sound, students rushed out of the school gate one after another on bicycles.

On the roof of the teaching building, a teenager sat quietly against the wall. He lowered his head, his hair was disheveled, the dried blood on his forehead turned into a dark red crust, and his clean white school uniform was stained with spots. He held the broken glasses with one hand, and with the other hand he vigorously flipped the long glasses legs into sections. In the end, the glasses legs became very short, and he couldn't stop. He was still stubborn. Leaving aside, the irregular gap across his palm, leaving a deep red mark on his palm, blood dripped down in a string.

As if he was unconscious, he continued to look away, stubbornly trying to put aside the short temples of the glasses. Xia Tong, who had been hiding aside, couldn't bear it any longer. She stepped forward and snatched the glasses from his hands. Throwing the glasses legs, he held his injured hand in his hand, looked at him sadly and said, "Qu Weiran, don't do this." Since what happened in the morning, he has been like this, hiding in the classroom building. On the rooftop, without saying a word, he kept competing with his iron-rimmed glasses.

Qu Weiran still didn't speak, his eyes stared coldly ahead, expressionless, his face without glasses appeared more angular, Qu Weiran, who was always as warm as the winter sun, looked so cold and gloomy at this moment, There was an eerie silence.

Xia Tong sucked her somewhat sore nose, reached out her hand and took out a clean handkerchief from her pocket, that handkerchief was left to her when she and Qu Weiran bandaged her wound when she and Qu Weiran met for the first time.

Xia Tong folded the handkerchief twice, pulled Qu Weiran's bleeding hand, and gently bandaged him.Qu Weiran watched coldly, when Xia Tong was about to bandage up, he suddenly withdrew his hand and tore off the handkerchief wrapped around his hand forcefully, the wound split open again in an instant.

"What are you doing?" Xia Tong was about to cry, she didn't know how to comfort him, she could only look at him pleadingly, "Don't do this."

Qu Weiran held the handkerchief and rubbed it gently with bloody fingers: "What kind of wound can such a small handkerchief bandage?"

He raised his head to look at Xia Tong, his eyes were dark, he couldn't see any emotion, only the infinite darkness that made people tremble in the soul.

"After bandaging your hands, what about the other end?" Qu Weiran asked, pointing to the wound on his head.

"What about the arm?"

"What about the legs?"

"What about the back?"

Every time Qu Weiran mentioned a place, he pointed to the wound and asked loudly, "What about here? What about here?"

"And..." Qu Weiran raised his head stiffly, looked at Xia Tong and asked, "What about my heart?"

"I'm here, it really hurts!"

"It hurts so much that I want to die now!"

"Why am I still alive?"

"Live like a dog?"

Qu Weiran raised his hand and tightly clutched his chest. His body seemed to be unable to bear the pain, and kept trembling, but even so, he still didn't cry, even though his expression was almost distorted in pain, But still endured, did not shed a tear.

Xia Tong couldn't bear it anymore, she leaned forward suddenly, hugged him, and cried bitterly: "Don't say that, don't say that, we will be fine, we will be fine, we will grow up , When we grow up, no one can bully us. Qu Weiran, I will work very hard to become stronger. I will protect you, next time, I will definitely protect you."

Xia Tong hugged Qu Weiran, cried hard, and said to him with sobs: "I will protect you, we will grow up together, become stronger together, and never be bullied again."

Qu Weiran listened silently, his eyes slowly turned red, he bit his lips tightly, stretched out his arms to hug the weak body in his arms, buried his head on her shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "Idiot... Who wants girls to protect them?"

"I will protect you, I will protect you! I can do it!" Xia Tong kept repeating, hugging him tightly with all her strength, but Qu Weiran kept scolding her: "Idiot, idiot." But gradually, His trembling body slowly calmed down, and his dark eyes were slightly lit up.

That night, they hugged on the rooftop until dawn. Xia Tong was tired from crying, so she fell asleep in Qu Weiran's arms. When she woke up, it was already the next morning, and she was wearing Qu Weiran's clothes. She moved her body, the pain made her frown tightly, and she slept on the concrete floor all night, her whole body hurt from sleeping.

"Are you awake?" In the darkness, she heard a familiar voice, turned her head to look, and saw Qu Weiran leaning against the wall with her legs under her head.Xia Tong sat up quickly in surprise, the bones in her body made a crisp "clack" sound, and she couldn't help but groan in pain.

"What's wrong?" Qu Weiran leaned over and asked.

"It's okay, it's just that my whole body hurts."

"Stand up and move around."

"En." Xia Tong stood up, jumped a few times, the pain seemed to have eased a bit, she turned to look at Qu Weiran, he was still sitting on the ground.

"Why don't you stand up?"

Qu Weiran smiled, rubbed his legs and said, "Legs are numb."

Xia Tong stared at his smile for a moment, then stretched out his hand, Qu Weiran held her hand, she pulled it hard, and he stood up with difficulty.

Xia Tong asked, "Is it better?"

Qu Weiran smiled and nodded: "Yes."

Xia Tong continued to ask, "How's your mood?"

Qu Weiran narrowed his eyes with a smile: "Yes."

Xia Tong also smiled and narrowed his eyes: "That's good."

"Idiot." Qu Weiran still scolded her.

Xia Tong didn't care at all, as long as he could smile, she would do whatever he wanted.

Because today is Saturday and there is no school, Qu Weiran and Xia Tong walked out of the school and went to a breakfast shop not far from the school to eat a bowl of porridge. Xia Tong took all the egg yolks into Qu Weiran's bowl while eating duck eggs. Xia Tong, if there is anything good, give it to Qu Weiran first. In her heart, Qu Weiran has surpassed her own existence.

Qu Weiran looked at the golden duck egg yolk in the bowl, raised his hand and switched his bowl with Xia Tong's, Xia Tong looked at him puzzled.

Qu Weiran stirred the porridge with a spoon, and the heat slowly rose up. Qu Weiran raised his eyes, looked at Xia Tong and said, "Xia Tong, don't be a silly woman."

"Only a stupid woman can be so nice to a man." Qu Weiran scooped a spoonful of porridge, blew it, fed it into Xia Tong's mouth, and continued, "You know? A mean man is made by a stupid woman. I don't want to hurt You are cheap. So, don't be so nice to me. "

Xia Tong didn't understand what Qu Weiran meant, and just blinked at him.Qu Weiran lowered his head and drank the porridge, his eating movements were always beautiful, even if he was eating a bowl of porridge that cost [-] cents a bowl, he was as elegant as a nobleman.

Before breakfast was finished that day, Qu's mother came to find her. Her beautiful face was full of exhaustion. When she saw Qu Weiran, she seemed relieved and hurried over, even twisting her high-heeled feet. Suddenly, Xia Tong saw Qu Weiran's expression tense, but he didn't help him after all.Qu's mother staggered for a moment, stood still and came over, and said to Qu Weiran apologetically, "Of course, but I'm so sorry, mother didn't expect him to go to school to make trouble."

"Mom just heard that the nurses in the hospital are bad and beat patients. Mom just wants to change your father to another hospital."

"Mom didn't expect this to happen."

"Of course, don't be angry with your mother, okay?" Qu's mother looked at Qu Weiran nervously and distressedly and said, "Mom knows that you don't want to live with your father, so you can live with me in an apartment in the city, okay? I promise, I will never let him hit you again."

Qu Weiran lowered his head, not looking at her.

Mother Qu's eyes were full of pleading.

Qu Weiran was silent for a while, then suddenly asked: "Then what should he do?"

"He, I'll ask a nurse to take care of him in the courtyard."

Qu Weiran sneered: "You still don't want him to suffer a little bit." After he finished speaking, he said to Xia Tong, "See? This is the most stupid woman in the world."
