Chapter 15 Depression
When Ye Wan walked to the school gate, she happened to see Zuo Tianxiao get in the car and leave. Because she came out early and the gate was not blocked, the black SUV flipped over twice and drove away quickly.

He walked forward while looking at the back of the car. When the car completely disappeared, he turned around and walked to the bus stop at the intersection.

His home is actually not near the school, and it can be said to be very far away. It is located in two corners of T county city from the school.

Every time he goes home, he has to take a long bus ride to get there. If there are few things and the weather is good, he doesn’t really want to go back when he has a lot of luggage or the weather is too hot or cold. Usually, he spends a total of one afternoon on Saturdays to take a bath. It's almost time to come back. It takes an hour or two to go back and forth on the road, so it shouldn't be too much trouble.

Ye Wan's luck was good today, the car arrived not long after she stood on it.

But there are still as many people as before, and Ye Wan doesn't expect to be able to grab a seat. After getting into the car and putting in coins, she grabs a pillar and leans against it. She puts on her earphones and quietly looks out of the window, squinting her eyes occasionally. comfortable.

After getting off the bus, Ye Wan walked through the old street paved with cobblestone roads, turned into a narrow alley that could only be passed by a motorcycle, then walked through a vermilion iron gate, and took the Take out the key and open the iron sliding door to count.

He walked through the kitchen where the dining table was full of dirty bowls, and was about to go straight up the corner stairs and go back to his room to put his clothes away first, but he heard his father Ye Jianguo's voice from the living room next door.

"came back?"

Ye Wan stopped, withdrew her right foot from the stairs, and walked into the living room next to her.

His father was lying on the sofa with his bare upper body and a pair of baggy sweatpants, holding a remote control in his hand and looking at him with his head tilted.

"En." He replied, and put down his schoolbag on the small sofa closest to him.

Ye Jianguo turned his head to watch the TV for a few moments, and then continued, "You didn't come back two weeks ago, did you?"

Ye Wan heard his casual tone, her heart tightened suddenly, "I sent you a text message."

Ye Jianguo smiled with his lips curled up, "I see, your father still doesn't know how to use a mobile phone."

Ye Wan pursed her lips.

"Okay, you go up first." Ye Jianguo sat up from the sofa as he said, his buttocks were deeply sunken.

"Ah."

"What do you want for lunch?"

"……It will be all right."

"Let's eat noodles then. I'll see if there are any dishes." Ye Jianguo leaned over and lit a cigarette, put it in his mouth and smoked, and then exhaled a pile of shapeless white smoke.

Ye Wan took the bag, turned around and went upstairs.

*
Ye Wan's room was very small, only about twenty square meters in size. Beside the door was the old-fashioned frosted white glass with patterns printed on it. A simple wooden table is connected between the cabinet and the bed.The walls are covered with brightly colored wallpaper, some places have turned black and peeled off.

Next door to his room is his dad's room, but it used to be his dad and his mother's room...

Although this room is small, as long as Ye Wan enters this room, closes the door, turns on the light, and pulls or draws the curtains according to his mood, he will feel very safe.

Everything was laid out according to his own wishes to the greatest extent, and everything was familiar to him.

As long as he is surrounded by these things, he will be very relaxed.

That's why he came back after a delay of several weeks.

Ye Wan put her schoolbag on the bed, then casually took a few autumn clothes and replaced the summer clothes she brought back to tidy up.

He lay on his back on the bed and looked at the chandelier on the ceiling, even though it made a few small white circles appear in his eyes.

The sound of his father cooking and yelling on the phone could be heard faintly outside the door.

In the past, at times like this, he would take out his earphones and start listening to music, because he didn't want to hear any form of yelling from his dad, and he didn't want to... and didn't dare.

But today is different, although his father's voice is still the same as usual, rough and violent, but he feels that the surroundings are very quiet, so quiet... It reminds him of Zuo Tianxiao.

He was wondering... whether he had already left County T, or was he stuck in a certain road or in front of a certain traffic light by this crowded small town.

But he felt that even if Zuo Tianxiao and his uncle were stuck in the road, they would definitely wait patiently. At most, they would complain about the bad traffic in this small town and the low-quality battery car drivers. They would definitely not be like... Like his father, he yelled at others, or stopped the car and ran to them to scold them. In the end, not only did he have more and more conflicts with others, but he also quarreled with his mother for embarrassing them...

When Ye Wan heard his father's "It's time to eat", she jumped off the bed in a jerk, opened the door and said "Okay" loudly, and then hurried downstairs.

He took a pair of chopsticks in silence, served himself a bowl of noodles, and then sat down at the dining table to eat.

His father probably took away all the leftover noodles and soup after him. When passing by him, he saw that the bowl in his father's hand was full, and even a small spoonful of soup could be spilled directly .

Ye Wan originally thought that his father would take the bowl directly to the living room to eat, so she kept her head down.But he didn't expect his father to stop suddenly when he came to him.

"Why didn't you call me when you came back?"

Ye Wan: "..."

"I'm still your father's?"

"..." Ye Wan kept her head down from the beginning to the end, without speaking or moving her chopsticks.

He looked down at his dad's legs and the old dark blue rubber slippers on his feet.

Maybe it was because he didn't want his answer at all, his father stopped for a while and left after he finished speaking.

After hearing the closing sound of the living room door, Ye Wan finally looked up indifferently.

After staring at the closed door in the living room for a while, Ye Wan lowered her head again and continued eating noodles.

He didn't know exactly what mood he was in, but he had an indescribable feeling, depressed and sad.

But these emotions are not very strong, because he is used to it.

His father has always been very attached to this kind of kinship, and he used to ask him this kind of question when he was in a bad mood.At that time, Ye Wan would be very flustered when she heard it, thinking that she had done something wrong to make his father think that he was not filial or something.But after a long time, he realized that...sometimes it is useless to just find the reason on himself, because some things are not caused by him.

If he just wants to solve the problem by changing himself, it will not work at all.

Therefore, I gradually got used to it and gradually stopped making efforts.

Some things, as long as you don't take it too seriously, then its influence on you does not exist at all.

*
It didn't take long for Ye Jianguo to come over with an empty bowl, and then he put the bowl in the sink and it was over.

"You stay here, I'm out, if you don't come back for dinner, you can solve it yourself."

"Oh." Ye Wan nodded slightly.

Then Ye Jianguo went back to the living room, took the cigarette lighter and money, and went out directly through the door of the living room.

 Poor our brother Ye.
