Fei Bai remembered when Luo Yusen mentioned that there have been essential recordings within the recorder, and thought to himself what number of impression factors can be deducted from him if he admitted that he misplaced it.

So he mentioned, “I forgot the place I put it brother, give me some extra time…” 

Luo Yusen didn’t reply, and his gaze fell casually on a e book at his bedside, “Do you want Borges?”

Fei Bai noticed the e book “The Infinite Rose” that he had positioned beside his pillow, and was embarrassed to say that it was used for hypnosis earlier than going to mattress.

Wait, he appears to see one thing sandwiched between the e book.

Fei Bai leaned over to fish out the poetry assortment and took out the voice recorder from it. 

He has obsessive-compulsive dysfunction, and he by no means folds pages when studying. He ought to have used the recorder as a bookmark yesterday.

So Luo Yusen had already seen the place the recorder was and intentionally waited till now to inform him.

Fei Bai felt a bit of heat on his cheeks when he considered the best way he pretended to be calm simply now.

“Thanks, brother.” He whispered.

Luo Yusen stretched out his hand to him, “You’re welcome.”

His fingers had been slender and even, and the palm strains had been clear and easy. This hand helped him maintain the espresso cup two days in the past and caught it to the again of his hand.

It took Fei Bai a second to react and handed him the recorder.

Luo Yusen took it, stood up, and walked out the door. “I’ll get you a brand new one subsequent time.” 

When he despatched him out, Fei bai glanced on the clock on the wall. It was nonetheless lower than ten o’clock. He nonetheless had half of the morning to squander freely.

When Luo Yusen went downstairs, he heard his footsteps echoing within the slender hall. He had by no means lived in such an old school residential constructing with out elevators earlier than. In the present day, he knew for the primary time that somebody would hold garments within the hall.

The truth is, he might have requested the motive force to come back and get the recorder, however by some means he turned interested by the place Fei Bai lived and wished to show round and have a look earlier than going to work.

The door downstairs was at all times open, and a few residents instantly blocked the door with bricks for the comfort of entry and exit. When he noticed it, he frowned subconsciously, questioning whether or not it was secure for kids to stay right here. 

Talking of which, an elder purchased him a home in a close-by high-end neighborhood when he was learning at S College. After commencement, he didn’t come there to stay typically, however he didn’t promote or hire it, as a result of he had at all times been possessive of his personal issues.

Luo Yusen turned on his cellphone and took a glance, it was virtually half previous ten. He was delayed at Feibai’s place.

“Then go and report back to the finance division and deduct my wage for this month,” he mentioned.

Luo Chengcheng laughed dryly, “How dare I try this, Mr. Luo, I’m nonetheless counting at you to pay me my wage.”

He checked out Luo Yusen and felt that the opposite social gathering was totally different from normal. Luo Yusen’s expression is uncommon and smooth as if he has simply skilled one thing nice. 

Luo Chengcheng didn’t wish to let go of this gossip alternative. He requested with a twinkle in his eyes, “Brother, the place did you go this morning?”

Luo Yusen loosened the collar of his shirt, “To see Feifei’s new tutor.

“Fei Fei’s new  tutor?” Luo Chengcheng got interested, “Male or feminine? How previous are they? And the way do they appear?”

Male, underneath twenty years previous, nonetheless a baby, as for what he seems… 

Luo Yusen remembered the charming smile that FeI bai had within the espresso store that day for no purpose. He coughed and returned to the workplace with out answering Luo Chengcheng’s boring query.

“Boring.” Luo Chengcheng pouted.

He took the time to speak with Secretary Zheng once more. He acquired a cellphone name within the center. After hanging up, he scratched his hair with some annoyance. “Sister Zheng, this associate can be too tough this time. He’s forcing me to cut back the worth by 20%. After a number of discussions, he couldn’t come to a conclusion. He got here to have lunch with me once more in the present day. Its in all probability going to be a protracted battle..”

He checked out his watch, “I’ve an appointment in a Japanese restaurant close to S College. If I’m going there late, there could also be no place to park, so I’m going to go away now. Please inform my brother for me ~”

“Simply discover a purpose to flee from work.” Secretary Zheng tapped him along with his fingers.

Fei Bai didn’t count on to complete coping with Xu Geyang and Luo Yusen so shortly within the morning. He opened the fridge and took out a can of Coke. It occurred to him that he hadn’t seen his grandma for some time.

His grandmother additionally lives within the metropolis. She is a really fascinating previous woman. She could be very unwilling to provide a face to others. For instance, when his grandfather was nonetheless there, he as soon as requested her to accompany her to the sixtieth anniversary of main faculty commencement. She was watching cartoons with Fei Bai sporting studying glasses on the time. Listening to this, she mentioned impatiently, “Simply inform them that I’m gone. Anyway, there gained’t be a couple of folks left.” 

Not solely did his grandma not give a face to her associate, but additionally to her son. Feibai was naughty when he was a baby and didn’t carry out effectively in class. After his father returned, he began to nag, saying that he had by no means let Feibai’s grandfather be invited to the college by a trainer earlier than, and grandma answered coldly from the aspect, ” As a result of I used to be the one who went there.”

Later, when Fei Bai was in highschool, his mother and father discovered that he was in a relationship with Xu Geyang. His mother and father pressured him to interrupt up with Xu Geyang, in any other case, he will probably be kicked out of the home and minimize off his monetary sources. Feibai didn’t bow down. After slamming the door and strolling away, he gritted his enamel and walked outdoors all evening. In the long run, his grandmother discovered him. The following day, his grandmother rented a home for Fei Bai to maneuver in and took care of him till the top of the school entrance examination.

Throughout this era, Fei Bai’s father got here to make hassle once more and instructed her that if she spoiled Fei Bai’s nonsense once more,  he would disown her as a mom.

Grandma Fei Bai snorted, “Dare to threaten your mom? I don’t even acknowledge you as my son!” 

From that second, in Feibai’s eyes, grandma modified from an fascinating previous woman to a home previous superman and a recent feminine bodhisattva.

All proper, so this morning I’ll go to and worship the previous Bodhisattva of my household.

Fei Bai threw the can of coke into the trash can, placed on his faculty bag, and ran downstairs kicking and screaming. After leaving the gate, he went out to a close-by financial institution to get some cash, after which swept a shared bicycle to experience within the path of his grandma’s residence.

His grandmother’s home was not removed from his present rented condominium, and it will take him 20 minutes to get there by bike. It ought to be simply in time for him to return to high school after consuming there. 

At this hour, there weren’t many vehicles on the street, and the bike lanes had been much more spacious. Feibai accelerated and stepped on the pedals a couple of occasions. The cool breeze blew previous his face and crammed his T-shirt, giving him the phantasm that he was gliding.

When he arrived, his grandma was about to exit, holding a flour-stained rolling pin in her hand. When she noticed him, she was shocked, “Fei Fei, why are you right here?”

Then she appeared behind him once more, “The place is Xiao Xu? Xiao Xu didn’t include you this time?”

Fei Bai didn’t take into consideration easy methods to inform her about breaking apart with Xu Geyang, so he determined to alter the topic first. 

“Why do you continue to convey a rolling pin if you exit?”

“Oh, somebody downstairs robbed us of our sq. dance venue. I assume we’ll should do it for self-defense within the subsequent two days.” Grandma mentioned calmly.” Grandma mentioned calmly.

Feibai swallowed and determined to not speak about Xu Geyang. He was afraid that after he completed talking, his grandmother would go straight to high school and use a rolling pin to roll his ex-boyfriend into a photograph.

“It’s been greater than every week since Feifei began faculty. You haven’t come. I believed you had been busy together with your research within the second 12 months of sophomore 12 months, and I didn’t dare to name you for worry of affecting you.” Grandma tapped Feibai’s shoulder with a rolling pin. 

“I… I’m a bit of busy.” Fei Bai mentioned.

“Oh, then don’t do your part-time job on the comfort retailer. I instructed you what number of occasions, I’ll pay to your residing bills. I’ve a pension and  I additionally saved some cash.” Grandma rambled and dragged him into the room.

“Ive stopped working within the comfort retailer,” Fei Bai pressed the envelope with the cash in his pocket underneath the vase on the cupboard whereas grandma was not paying consideration, “The professor who took me on the undertaking launched me to the work of tutoring. I can earn some huge cash, so that you don’t have to fret about me. Purchase your self extra meals and clothes, or go on a visit.”

He used to work nightshift in a comfort retailer, however he hasnt been within the temper to go after his lovelorn. He didn’t reply the cellphone name, and the matter was gone. 

Grandma mentioned “Oh.”

“How in regards to the mother and father of that household?”

The mother and father are fairly good, good-looking, rich, and extremely educated. Additionally they gave me a inexperienced hat.

Fei Bai smiled and mentioned solely the primary half of the sentence. 

Grandma helped him take off the schoolbag on his shoulder. “It’s virtually meal time, what do you wish to eat?”

Fei Bai was going to say one thing coquettish, reminiscent of  I wish to eat no matter you make, however he discovered that the subsequent second his grandma took out her cellphone and opened the takeaway app.

So he paused and mentioned, “It’s tremendous, I wish to eat no matter you ordered.”

Then his grandmother ordered the well-known snail noodles. 

When the takeaway meals was delivered, Fei Bai smelled that odor, and at all times felt that it was totally different from the scene he imagined the place the grandparents and grandchildren had been fortunately collectively.

Grandma didn’t assume there was something incorrect with it. She helped him tear the packaging bag of disposable tableware and shared with him the present scenario of her life, “Let me inform you, Feifei, once I was dancing within the sq. just lately, there was at all times an previous man taking a look at me and complimenting me for being like a bit of swan.”

Fei Bai might have been a bit of dizzy from the snail powder, so he opened his mouth and requested, “Are you certain he isn’t speaking in regards to the little swan washer?”

Then he noticed Grandma choosing up the rolling pin. 

Fei Bai’s elbow was nonetheless aching when he rode his bike again to high school. When he was about to achieve the west faculty gate, he couldn’t assist however free his hand to rub it. Because of this, he didn’t know what was urgent underneath the wheel right now. The entrance of his bike veered to the aspect and grazed a luxurious automobile parked on the aspect of the street. His elbow additionally slammed into the door of the automobile, and the ache brought about his tears to burst out uncontrollably instantly.

The window of the luxurious automobile slowly lowered, and he noticed the face of a younger man.
