Chapter 161, rainy day

The rain hit the glass windows, pattering.

He seemed to hear the sound of rain in his sleep. Qiao Minglang opened his eyes and found himself being held in someone's arms. He was still a little dazed for a moment, unable to realize where he was.

After a while, he remembered that they returned to the city from home today, where Zhou Xing lived, and they had to go to school, and he suddenly woke up and sat up from the bed.

"Huh?" The other person who was still sleeping on the bed was woken up, and found that the boy in his arms had disappeared. Subconsciously, he wanted to reach out to grab him back, and said vaguely: "It's not yet dawn, come with me again." Get some sleep."

Qiao Minglang picked up the watch on the table and looked at it. It was already past six o'clock or almost seven o'clock, and he yelled inwardly.Seeing that Zhou Xing was still sleeping, he stretched out his hand to pat the man's face, and shouted, "Zhou Xing, don't sleep, get up quickly."

"It's raining outside, how do we get to school?"

Seeing the rain outside drifting into the room, he got up and went to close the window.

"What?" Zhou Xing raised his head and glanced outside, isn't it dawn yet?What school did you go to?

His consciousness was still in the vacation, and he didn't realize that he was going back to school.

Looking at Zhou Xing's appearance, Qiao Minglang knew that this person didn't even understand day and night, so he told him, "It's past six o'clock in the evening, and it's raining heavily outside, how can we go back to school."

Looking at the heavy rain that could continue outside, he felt a little worried. If he knew they would go back to school today, they would not come to Zhou Xing's side.

"It's raining. Oh, yes, we're going back to school." At this moment, Zhou Xing also came to his senses. Seeing the boy's worried face, he sat up from the bed and glanced towards the window , said: "It's raining so hard, we'll go back to school tomorrow."

"We are going now, and we must be late."

Seeing Qiao Minglang sitting on the bed with his back to him, Zhou Xing poked his head over and gave Qiao Minglang a careful look. He knew that the boy definitely wanted to go back to school, "If you really want to go back, wait for the rain to clear up later. If so, I will ask the driver to pick us up."

Although he would rather stay here for one night and go back to school tomorrow.But it seems that the boy didn't think so.

"Well, come back when it rains less." Qiao Minglang glanced at the rain outside and sighed, that was the only way to go.Turning to look at Zhou Xing, seeing that he was still lying on the bed, he said, "Get up too."

Originally, they just wanted to take a nap, but they didn't expect that they would fall into such a deep sleep. If they had to wake up earlier, they would not encounter such a heavy rain.

Standing up from the bed, he walked towards the bathroom and closed the door behind his back.

Seeing the young man go into the bathroom, Zhou Xing didn't feel like lying on the bed alone, so he sat up from the bed, lifted the quilt and got out of bed, followed in the direction of the bathroom, stood outside and knocked on the door.

The door was opened from the inside, and Qiao Minglang stood inside, looking at Zhou Xing with no expression on his face.

"Don't look at me like that, I fell asleep and forgot, I didn't mean not to wake you up." Seeing Qiao Minglang looking at him like this, Zhou Xing always felt that he had done something heinous, so he couldn't help but smile, Asked: "Are you hungry? There is no food at home. I will go outside to see if there is any food and buy some for you."

He remembered that there was a small shop at the place where the door came in, and he had bought cigarettes there, and he remembered that there were things for sale.

"Don't go out, I'm not hungry." Qiao Minglang subconsciously held back Zhou Xing, not wanting him to go out in the heavy rain.

"It's just a little rain, it's okay, I just go out with an umbrella." Zhou Xing said.

"No, we'll talk about it when it rains less." Qiao Minglang shook his head, disapproving.

"Are...are you concerned about me?" Zhou Xing lowered his head, met the young man's eyes, and asked with a smile.

Qiao Minglang pursed his lips and ignored this person, thinking that this person would open a dyeing workshop just by giving him some color, so he went outside.

"What's the matter if you just admit it generously, can't you make me happy?" Seeing that the boy didn't answer him, Zhou Xing hung his head and followed the boy out.

Both of them were actually hungry, and it was raining heavily outside, so they were trapped inside the house and couldn't get out.

Zhou Xing felt that it was just raining heavily. He went out to buy something with an umbrella and came back. At worst, he just came back and changed his clothes. It was better than the two of them being hungry here.

Of course, this going out was limited to himself, he was reluctant to let the boy go out with him.

I turned on the TV and played it. At first it was a bit polka-dotted, but I could barely watch it.It's just that I couldn't see it for 10 minutes, and the portrait became blurry, until I couldn't see any picture at all.

"Can't put it on anymore?" Zhou Xing got up and went over to take a picture of the TV, wanting to see if he could take a portrait, "What kind of broken TV is this?"

"Stop filming, let's just forget it if you can't play it." Qiao Minglang was afraid that this person would break the TV.

"Okay, now we can't even turn on the TV, what do you think the two of us can do in the house?" Zhou Xing had no choice but to turn off the TV, and the two of you looked at me and I looked at you, big eyes Stare small.

Gollum—

His stomach made a rumbling sound. He grew up so big, and the number of times he was hungry was very few. He even forgot what it was like to be hungry.

It is more difficult for a person to sit still when he is hungry.

"Let me see if it's raining a little bit outside." Zhou Xing rubbed his hungry stomach, got up and walked to the balcony. When he opened the glass door, the wind mixed with rain poured in from the outside. closed the door.

"The rain seems to be getting heavier."

Hearing the movement from Zhou Xing's side, Qiao Minglang raised his head and glanced there, his stomach growled with hunger, but he was used to this feeling of hunger, so he didn't feel much of it.

He now wants to know more about when they can go to school.

The whole person curled up on the sofa, hugged a pillow in his arms, rested his chin on the pillow, and stared at the floor blankly.

"Are you hungry? Do you want me to go down and buy something to eat?" Zhou Xing teased the boy with his feet and asked.He saw that the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier. If he had known that he had gone out just now, he might have bought something and came back by now.

"No, don't touch me." Qiao Minglang replied a little listlessly.

"You still say no, you see that you don't even have the strength to speak."

Suddenly remembered something, Zhou Xing patted his forehead, "Hey, I remember I bought some food last time, and I haven't finished eating, where did I stuff it." He remembered that he was hungry last time , I bought a bag of snacks and came back, it seems that I haven't finished eating.

Looking in the living room, he bent down and looked under the coffee table, and pulled out a bag from under the coffee table.

"It really does exist." Zhou Xing was pleasantly surprised by himself. He himself forgot that there was food here. If he hadn't been so hungry today, he really couldn't remember that there was food here.

Qiao Minglang looked up at Zhou Xing, with a little expectation in his eyes.

"Minglang, come and have a look." Seeing that Qiao Minglang was looking at him, Zhou Xing called someone over, opened the bag with his hands, saw an open pack of biscuits, took one out, tasted it, and it was too damp to eat.

"Bah ah..."

Spit out the biscuits in your mouth, "This pack of biscuits is not edible... There are still unopened packs here, this should be edible, you eat this." Throw away the damp biscuits, fortunately there is still a pack of unopened It was packaged. Zhou Xing tore open the package, handed the biscuit to the young man, and said, "You eat."

"Thank you." Qiao Minglang thanked, took it, took out a biscuit, put it in his mouth, took a bite, and thought it was not bad, but a bit dry.He took another biscuit from the bag and handed it to Zhou Xing, "You eat it too."

Zhou Xing went over to grab the biscuit with his mouth, ate it in one gulp, opened another bag of potato chips, and asked, "There are still potato chips here, do you want to eat?"

The two sat back on the sofa. There was only one box of biscuits and two packs of French fries to eat.

The other ones that were opened and not finished were all broken and could not be eaten, and Zhou Xing threw them into the trash can.If he had known that they had today, he would have bought more things and put them at home last time.

"No more." Qiao Minglang ate a piece of potato chips, and he didn't like this thing very much. After eating a few biscuits, he felt dry mouth, "I'll go and boil some water." He said and headed towards the kitchen I walked over and boiled a pot of water with the pot that I used to boil water last time.

The pointer points to eight o'clock, and their evening self-study has already started.

"Shall we go to school now? I'll send someone to pick us up." He saw that the rain outside might last all night, and it might even be tomorrow.Zhou Xing felt that it didn't matter whether he went to school or not, but he knew that Qiao Minglang was more concerned about this.

"Is it okay?" Qiao Minglang glanced outside, it was getting late, and by the time they went to school, they might have already studied by themselves in the evening.

"Well, there should be no problem." Zhou Xing picked up the phone, dialed a number, and explained a few words to the person over there.By the way, he also made a phone call to the teacher's office, and the phone rang several times before he was picked up. He asked the teacher for a leave of absence, and he might not go to school until later.

The guy over there said hello.

After hanging up the phone, he saw Qiao Minglang looking at him when he turned around. Zhou Xing patted the sofa and asked him to sit down, "Wait for half an hour, and someone will come to pick us up."

"Okay." Qiao Minglang sat down on the sofa.

There was still a distance of half a meter between the two of them. Zhou Xing moved his butt over, put his hand on the boy's shoulder, and asked, "Why are you sitting so far away from me?"

Qiao Minglang was drinking water from a cup in his hand, glanced at Zhou Xing, and didn't feel that the two of them had to stick together all the time.Seeing that Zhou Xing reached out to touch him, he raised the cup in his hand, as if you dare to come over, I will pour boiling water on you.
