But Dou Xun didn't.

Dou Xun just stared at him gloomily for a while, turned around and left.

Even though Dou Junliang failed to live up to all his expectations for a father, Dou Junliang still gave birth to him, gave him a name, raised him, and sent him to school.

The father who has failed him is also a father, and there is no animal reason for a son to fight against his father.

"You... this is all mental illness!" Dou Junliang said behind him in a suppressed voice, as if he was afraid of disturbing anyone, "I'll contact some doctors for you... Dou Xun! Dou Xun, stop here!"

Dou Xun turned a deaf ear and walked faster and faster.

Dou Junliang spent half his life focusing on making money and squandering money, and never bothered about his children. Dou Xun was like a field that thrived without watering or taking care of it, and he only grew his face.

Only today did Dou Junliang finally understand what "you always have to pay back when you go out to hang out." He smoked a few cigarettes on the spot like a trapped animal, then angrily slammed the car door and broke into the house.

Wu Fenfen had already seen the lawsuit between father and son through the window, and after exhausting her efforts, she suppressed the secret joy in her heart and came out with a bright face: "Dou..."

"Don't think that I don't know what you are worried about." Dou Junliang now has no patience to listen to her gasp. He prefers beautiful fools, but does not like smart fools - especially when the fool is no longer so beautiful.

"Wu Fenfen, let me tell you," Dou Junliang pointed at her nose and said, "If any leaks about this matter come out, no matter which bastard said it, I will come to you to settle the score, get out!"

Dou Xun was called out by Dou Junliang in a hurry. He didn't bring a penny with him. The autumn night was as cold as water. A thin layer of dew quickly fell on his body, and his burning cheeks slowly cooled down, and then completely cooled down. Only when it was involved

, causing a little needle-pricking pain.

Dou Xun walked eight kilometers, which took nearly an hour and a half.

When he got home, he was not in a hurry to go back. He sat in the garden of the community for a while and smoked the last cigarette in his pocket. After being with Xu Xilin, he gradually stopped smoking and seemed to have no desire to smoke.

I deliberately quit, but gradually I can’t think of it anymore.

That pack of cigarettes was left over from a long time ago and has been in my windbreaker pocket all autumn, like a pack of tissues that I never remember to use.

After he estimated that Grandma Xu was almost asleep, Dou Xun moved his frozen hands and feet and slowly walked home, when he met Xu Xilin and came out to welcome him.

"Grandma is worried, let me come out to greet you." Xu Xilin said, his eyes lingered on Dou Xun's slightly blue face for a moment, and then he slid away without saying anything.

The two of them went home together and didn't turn on the lights when they entered the house. Grandma Xu came out and asked a few questions. Fortunately, she couldn't see clearly in the dark, so Xu Xilin coaxed her back with a few words.

Dou Xun's gloomy anger had been extinguished in the night wind and dew, and he was very tired. When he went upstairs, he did not wash his face and change clothes. As soon as he entered the door, he hugged Xu Xilin wetly.

Xu Xilin then asked hesitantly: "Your dad..."

Dou Xun impatiently mentioned Dou Junliang, turned his face on his face, and blocked Xu Xilin's mouth anxiously.

Xu Xilin originally had six or seven guesses, but now they have all come true.

The secret that he had been holding back for several years suddenly came to light. He was inevitably confused and panicked, but there was still Dou Xun who needed to be comforted. Xu Xilin had to force himself back to his senses in the midst of being upset, and raised his hand to hug Dou Xun.

His back slowly stroked down his spine.

As if being indulged, Dou Xun leaned against him and pressed him against the door, silently trying to seek comfort from him.

Xu Xilin was obviously not in the mood to cooperate at this moment. He pretended not to understand Dou Xun's hint, grabbed Dou Xun's cold hand, put it into his arms and covered it for a while, and at the same time turned on the headlight in the bedroom: "Show me

your face."

Dou Xun's expression was as stiff as if he had been slapped. He took a step back and avoided Xu Xilin's hand helplessly: "Forget it, it's okay. I'm going to wash my face."

Xu Xilin: "Wait..."

Dou Xun had already locked the bathroom door.

Xu Xilin pressed his forehead irritably and walked around the room a few times. He felt out of breath. He always felt that everything was a mess recently and nothing good happened.

He began to wonder how Dou Junliang discovered it, and the more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became. In the end, he almost became paranoid. He always felt as if everyone in the world already knew about it. After being anxious about this for a while, Xu Xilin suddenly thought about the time he had shared until now.

He had no intention of modifying the contract, and thinking about it, he would have to hold his nose and deal with those people again tomorrow afternoon...

He simply didn't want to live anymore.

Xu Xilin left the narrow bedroom in darkness and went to the living room to get some fresh air.

He sat on the old sofa with his mind free for a while, when a rustling sound came, and the gray parrot actually flew up and stood on the railing on the second floor to look at him.

After this bird grew up a little, it showed its intelligence. It recognized its family and never flew around. It was a bit of a germaphobe. If it lost its feathers, it would take them away by itself. Usually they don't like to lock it. Gray parrot

He tilted his head, looked at Xu Xilin's face, then flapped his wings and landed on his arm, put his clever bird's head on his shoulder, his fur still blowing, and got close to him with disgust.

Xu Xilin couldn't help but smile bitterly - now, there is only one parrot in the world who knows that he is unhappy.

He took a deep breath, grabbed two peanuts from the nut box next to him, fed it to it, shook his arm, and let it fly.

Dou Xun was wiping his hair and lowered his head when he saw Xu Xilin entering the room.

If Dou Junliang poured a pot of red-hot molten iron on him, Xu Xilin's imperceptible dodge just now was because the pot of molten iron was covered with a layer of ice. It was cold and hot, coming and going, and a layer of ice stuck to his body.

An iron prison that binds the flesh and bones.

However, when facing Dou Junliang, he was invulnerable, but one look from Xu Xilin could pierce his heart with thousands of arrows.

Dou Xun is a bit unsophisticated, but he is not stupid at all. No matter how good Xu Xilin is to him or how clingy he is, he knows Xu Xilin's bottom line - Xu Xilin always feels that the relationship between the two of them is shady. He is awake and sinking.

It was so heavy that one day I couldn't breathe, and maybe I ran away in a hurry.

Xu Xilin glanced downstairs, carefully closed the door, and asked him: "What's going on?"

"There are some photos of Dou Junliang," Dou Xun said. "They were probably taken secretly downstairs, so they are not very clear."

Xu Xilin was silently comforted by the gray parrot, and finally he was able to cheer up and think - someone took a photo, and handed it to Dou Junliang after taking it, explaining that it should be Dou Xun's business, who would be able to follow an ordinary Dou Xun without any problem?

student?

Before he could think about the reason, Dou Xun directly revealed the answer: "It was probably his mentally retarded wife who did it. The scene in the photo should be in summer. I remember that there are several decoration companies in the neighborhood, maybe

Dou Junliang, who snuck in from the decoration team, is very proud of himself. Even if he secretly finds someone to kill me or his second wife, he will never reveal this matter. Don’t worry."

Dou Xun rescued Xu Xilin from the fear of "the whole world knows" with a few words. For a moment, Xu Xilin was really relieved.

However, he soon heard the irony in Dou Xun's words.

"Even if you secretly find someone to kill me" and "Don't worry" were put together in one sentence, something didn't sound right. Xu Xilin didn't know which cow Dou Xun had taken advantage of. He licked his lips: "Bean stuffing...

…”

Dou Xun stood up suddenly: "I'm going back to the house."

It would be a big deal if he really let him go back to the house. Xu Xilin raised his hand and locked the door behind him in a well-trained manner, blocking Dou Xun from letting him go.

The two were in a stalemate quietly for a moment, and Xu Xilin explained in a low voice: "I'm not worried about that, I'm a little worried about you."

Dou Xun looked at him deeply, and when their eyes met, Xu Xilin subconsciously wanted to hide away, because he felt that Dou Xun had seen through his fear and weakness. Then, he strangled his neck to cover up this fear,

He took Dou Xun's hand and said in a gentle voice: "I have everything, no matter what your father says."

After Dou Xun heard these words, he stood frozen for a moment, and then his expression finally softened. Xu Xilin hugged his waist, kissed him in his ear, and coaxed him to sleep on the bed.

The lights were turned off, and no one fell asleep. Xu Xilin was counting Dou Xun's breaths, while Dou Xun's mind was filled with Xu Xilin's flashing eyes. The two were sharing the same bed, with two thoughts on their minds.

Before dawn the next day, Xu Xilin got up, changed the agreement that was humiliating the country, transferred it to a mobile hard drive, copied it, and prepared to take it to school. When he turned around, he found that Dou Xun had already gotten up.

Xu Xilin asked casually: "What happened today?"

It’s not surprising that he asked too much, because Dou Xun has basically no classes during this period, and the remaining main tasks are graduation projects and related experiments. And procrastination, an epidemic among college students, can’t even see a trace on Dou Xun.

While many people have not yet entered their senior year, he has methodically used the summer vacation to sort out his ideas and prepare an outline. He has not wasted a day since the beginning of school, and has returned to school to do experiments and record data. So far, others are still far away from the mid-term.

He has already written a lot, so he doesn't run to school much when he has nothing to do.

Dou Xun said "hmm": "I have an interview."

Xu Xi paused while turning off the computer: "Didn't you already get the postgraduate guarantee?"

Dou Xun casually prevaricates: "Internship."

Xu Xilin: "What position?"

Dou Xun hesitated for a moment before saying: "Pharmaceutical agent."

Xu Xilin thought for a moment that he heard wrong: "What?"

Dou Xun was originally hesitant between graduate school and work, but now he finally made a choice under the pressure of Dou Junliang - why did Dou Junliang think he could dictate his own affairs? Why can't Xu Xilin always feel relieved?

Isn't it because he is a poor student with nothing to gain?

Dou Xun has a weak outlook on money, and he has never considered material success as his goal in life before.

At this time, what Xu Xilin said to him a few years ago echoed in his heart - when he becomes strong, he will no longer have to worry about what others say.

Dou Xun tossed and turned all night, and the road that had been chaotic for a long time suddenly became clear. He planned to work directly after graduation, whatever he wanted, reselling medical equipment would be good, and during this period, he would study a computer, finance and other highly practical majors.

, just pretend that you never went to college, just change careers and start from scratch.

After washing up in the morning, Dou Xun found that Xu Xilin, who was in a hurry, had not left. He was even standing there with some thoughts, as if he had something to say to him.

Dou Xun raised his eyebrows, indicating that he had a morning performance.

Xu Xilin thought about it for a while before speaking: "Is your father putting pressure on you? It's okay, Doujiang'er, we are real dragons and we won't follow the dog holes. I also hope that you can come back with a Nobel Prize in the future. There is no need to follow

Just give in... If you are willing to study, you can study. As long as I am here, I will not wrong you."

Dou Xun nodded on the spot, but he ignored it. As soon as Xu Xilin left, he immediately changed his clothes and went out.

He couldn't wait to fly high, and with a lot of anxiety, he couldn't wait to show his lover that his still naive wings could be relied on, and he would not hesitate to jump directly from the cliff——

Xu Xilin underestimated Dou Xun's stubbornness. After saying goodbye to Dou Xun, he returned to school.

Teacher Wang from the education supermarket finally got angry enough and let go of Xu Xilin and his immature vitamins. This matter was finally settled.

When Xu Xilin left his office, he felt heavy and relaxed. As he walked, he used his mobile phone to browse the vitamin message board online.

Several pages of the message board were refreshed overnight.

"Holy crap, it took so long to shut down for maintenance just for such a rubbish feature?"

"Senior, please don't cancel the supermarket for the week. It's so cruel to take a taxi to the supermarket..."

“I can’t understand why it was changed like this at all.”

"Jiaochao also came to help me, I kind of want to cancel my account."

Everyone on the campus network is from the same school, and compared to the anonymous forums outside, they are simply a harmonious group. Xu Xilin knew that if this was an outsider's website, the people below would not be so civilized, and they would probably have cursed each other.

Even the man of God who wrote a 5,000-word plan for him back then also left a message.

"I'm probably one of the earliest users of vitamins. How can I put it this way? After so many things, I'm a little disappointed. Everyone has a lot of ideas. If you do it, it's really amazing. In the past, your family

The quality of the fruit is very good. It can be seen that a lot of effort has been put into purchasing it. But now the campus supermarket has also been included. Haha, I have already foreseen the future. The so-called 'vitamins' will carry the garbage fruits from the education supermarket back to your dormitory for everyone.

Right? It’s not interesting. Based on the school and never stepping out of the school gate, the boss’s horizons are a bit narrow.”

Xu Xilin was so overwhelmed by these words that he couldn't breathe.

And he still refused to let himself go, and read all the messages scolding him like a self-abuse.

It is said that most people in the world have "visual memory", so sometimes they are scolded in person. Although the mood fluctuates violently at that time, time has passed and the past has passed. However, the words that penetrate into the eyes are different. After reading

There won't be any ups and downs, but it will always linger in the memory for a long time, like a stuck in the throat.

Xu Xilin was very disappointed with himself.

And just as he was walking out of school with a heavy reputation, a car honked at him at the door. Xu Xilin looked up and saw Dou Junliang wearing sunglasses getting out of the car and waving to him.

Xu Xilin was not too surprised and went over to say hello politely: "Uncle."

"Hey," Dou Junliang pointed to his car gracefully, "The last time I had a good talk with you was when Mr. Xu did something like that. It has been so many years in a blink of an eye. Do you have time to chat?"

Xu Xilin would not sneer at him like Dou Xun did, and got into the car obediently.

Dou Junliang drove him to a private restaurant that was very suitable for chatting. When he sat down, he pushed the menu to him: "Let's see what you like to eat."

Dou Junliang is an asshole to his wife, but he has always been remarkable to outsiders. He can almost be called "respecting the old and loving the young". According to the past, he is probably a standard "human face with an animal heart".

Although he was polite, Xu Xilin couldn't order in front of his elders, so he pushed the menu back: "Come here, I have no dietary restrictions."

Dou Junliang smiled, rolled up his sleeves, revealed the rose gold watch on his wrist, and said meaningfully: "You are more sensible than my son."

Xu Xilin had a hunch that this meal might make his stomach hurt even more than yesterday's meal.

Dou Junliang did not put "I" in front of him, and his conversation was more like an ordinary person. He chatted a few words with Xu Xilin about the real estate market and stock market that have become popular in recent years. After wiping his mouth at the end, Dou Junliang picked up the teacup.

After rinsing his mouth, he got to the point: "Do you know what is the most important thing in a man's life?"

Xu Xilin smiled and said nothing.

"Decentness," Dou Junliang sighed, "little brother, do you know what decency is? You have to look like that before others will take you seriously. The word 'human' has two legs, one forked and one forked.

Na, human dignity also has two legs, you must know that."

Money and power are also called "wealth" and "resources" in glorified terms.

"Your teacher must have always taught you when you were young that 'money and power are not everything', that's nonsense - well, my uncle never went to college, he said a few foul words, just listen to it and enjoy it, don't take it to heart.

Dou Junliang waved his hand, "I know you young people all believe in 'true love', but what is true love?"

"True love is happiness plus conscience, young man." Dou Junliang looked into Xu Xilin's eyes and said, "You have money in your pocket, and if you make a phone call, someone can help you with things. This is the only way to make you and your family happy.

Way, without this, you two can only consume each other's conscience."

Xu Xilin turned the white porcelain cup in his hand without saying a word.

"Let me put it bluntly, this matter is not good for either of you. I won't say more about what is not good for you. You know better than that idiot Dou Xun. Let me talk about Dou Xun." Dou Junliang went tiredly.

He leaned back on his chair and said, "I'm not idle today. I went to Dou Xun's school early in the morning."

It seems like yesterday that he was out having fun and spending time with Qili Xiang with shopping cards and necklaces.

Who would have thought that an important client would make an appointment to go to his son’s school today?

It’s not that I won’t report it, it’s that the time has not yet come.

"I didn't know who to look for, so I looked for a teacher I had met last time. He told me that there was a very famous professor abroad. After reading the first draft of Dou Xun's graduation thesis, he really wanted Dou Xun to apply for the post.

His students can guarantee that Dou Xun will get the full prize if he goes there." Dou Junliang spread his hands, "Has he told you about this?"

Xu Xilin's fingers paused - no.

"There's another thing I think you don't know. Dou Xun called their department today to confirm that he would give up the postgraduate guarantee." Dou Junliang said, "He plans to break up with me completely and no longer wants to use me to support his education, so he is anxious

He came out in a hurry to find a living."

Xu Xilin blurted out: "I told him that I..."
