During this meal, Lin Juexiao and Zhou Yuchen were talking more. Zhou Jinye just listened silently, his chopsticks didn't move much, but occasionally he picked up a few pieces of meat with little interest.
He didn't talk much, and only when the two of them talked about things related to him would Zhou Jinye respond a few times.
Zhou Yuchen was actually not very good at getting along with this younger brother who suddenly appeared, but after all, he was the closest blood brother, and he still had to shoulder this responsibility.
He added a piece of meat from the hot pot, put it in a bowl to dry, and asked, "Is it okay to go to Yujun if you want to go to school?"
Yujun is a private middle school, and Zhou Jinye's grades are relatively average. Public is much simpler.
Zhou Jinye didn't know about Ning Cheng's school, so he just said "um" at will.
Zhou Yuchen actually wanted to take care of his younger brother's studies, but he knew that today's children, especially those with average grades, still shy away from such topics.
He licked his lower lip and could only give Zhou Jinye a piece of meat to express his closeness. He smiled and said: "Eat more, I don't think you eat much."
Zhou Yuchen finished the meat for him, then turned to follow Lin Juexiao chatting.
Zhou Jinye looked down at the extra meat in the bowl.
In fact, he has such a slight habit of cleanliness, and he can't accept other people's food for him.
Zhou Jinye raised his eyes and glanced at Zhou Yuchen. Seeing that he was chatting with Lin Juexiao, he just took a piece of baby vegetables from the pot and covered it.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that Lin Juexiao saw it.
But when Zhou Jinye raised his head again, he saw that Lin Juexiao was probably full, with his elbows on the table, palms on his chin, and his eyes bent with a smile.
Like a pussy cat.
Most of the two of them are also talking about Zhou Yuchen, Zhou Yuchen complained about his internship experience righteously and indignantly: "I'm so busy every day, my senior who took me is outrageous, and I leave everything to me. , I don't do anything!"
Lin Juexiao didn't say anything, just being a qualified listener, comforting Zhou Yuchen when necessary.
Zhou Yuchen was just halfway through cursing aggressively, when the phone on the table rang like a bell at midnight.
He glanced at the note, and instantly wilted.
Zhou Yuchen answered the phone with a condescending expression on his face, but he pretended to have a very good attitude: "Hey... oh... the case is right, it's all right... I'm done eating... I'll go back right away."
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yuchen changed his face . The day is fast.
He pointed at the phone and scolded for a while, but he honestly picked up the coat on the back of the chair and put it on. He told Lin Juexiao goodbye: "It's annoying, I'll go first."
Zhou Yuchen sniffed the body and sighed. He sighed: "Looks like I have to go to Sephora to get some perfume."
Lin Juexiao was amused by him, and urged him: "You go, the sooner you go, the sooner you finish it."
Zhou Yuchen shook him at him Shaking his hands, he said goodbye to Zhou Jinye awkwardly: "...Jinye, I'll go first, just call me if you have something to do."
After Zhou Yuchen left, the box was much quieter.
The mandarin duck pot was still churning, and the side that belonged to the spicy pot was rolling especially hard. Lin Juexiao suddenly took the public chopsticks and found the meat he had just gone down from the clear soup pot not long ago.
I didn't eat it myself, and put it all into Zhou Jinye's bowl.
With the heat in front of him, Lin Juexiao asked, "You shouldn't eat spicy food. I don't think you have anything in the hot pot, and the seasoning doesn't seem to be spicy.
" Sweat beaded, in the air-conditioned box, he slowly shook his head: "Don't eat."
Later, it developed into that Lin Juexiao kept feeding him. Zhou Jinye had no interest in hot pot, and inexplicably ate all the new dishes on the table.
Lin Juexiao stretched out comfortably, and greeted the waiter to come in and check out.
As a result, the bill was settled by Zhou Yuchen who went out earlier.
He didn't care much, after all, between him and Zhou Yuchen, it was you who invited me to have a meal, and I returned to you.
Zhou Jinye suddenly asked abruptly, "Are you familiar with him?"
He was still not used to calling Zhou Yuchen his brother.
Lin
Juexiao nodded indifferently: "Familiar, your brother and I have known each other since elementary school." Zhou Jinye said nothing.
That's right, if Lin Juexiao and Zhou Yuchen's relationship is not good, how could they help and promise to take care of him.
After the meal, they still took the subway back. Fortunately, there were many fewer people on the subway at this point than before.
As usual, the seats were full, but at least there was a place for them to stand.
Lin Juexiao stood at the junction of the carriage and received Zhou Yuchen's news idly.
[Yuchen]: Jue Xiao, I'm so sorry, Jin Ye can only trouble you.
[Yuchen]: I have inquired about him. In general, he is also a good boy, except that he is less talkative.
[Yuchen]: I asked Yujun. They should start their senior year on August 15th, and they should have one day a week after school, so they shouldn't bother you much.
Lin Juexiao actually didn't find it much troublesome.
Zhou Jinye is already a boy who is almost an adult and has the ability to take care of himself. It is a matter of many pairs of chopsticks and many people.
[Chun Mian does not realize Xiaoxiao]: Does he want to live on campus?
[Yuchen]: ...I didn't ask him either.
[Yuchen]: I used to live on campus, so I should still be.
[Chun Mian does not realize it]: Okay, I see.
Zhou Yuchen said that, but Lin Juexiao couldn't help but worry again. He thought about it and asked, "Jinye, do you want to live on campus?"
Today is August 9th, not far from the 15th. The school has to talk about it in advance.
Zhou Jinye replied subconsciously, "It's fine." Lin Juexiao
discussed with him, "Why don't you stay at home, I'm not far from Yujun, and it only takes about ten minutes to ride a bicycle. Sooner or later, self- study will not be delayed."
Zhou Jinye was a little shaken, but he still refused in a low voice: "No, it's too much trouble for you."
He still needs to be self-aware.
"It's okay, you can tell me if you don't want to live on campus." Lin Juexiao frowned slightly, then quickly stretched it out, and said gently, "Don't talk about trouble, I promised your brother to take care of you, you don't need to I feel troublesome to me."
Zhou Jinye knew for a moment.
Lin Juexiao was so considerate and gentle to him, and smiled so nicely, presumably because he promised Zhou Yuchen.
Zhou Jinye said sullenly, "I'm used to living in school." When
they got home about eight o'clock, Lin Juexiao's first thing was to hurriedly run to Kangkang, the kitten with no hair at all.
Lin Juexiao sat cross-legged on the ground, took the warm cat milk he had just soaked, and squeezed it into a baby-like bottle to feed it.
The kitten's eyes were still half-open, and after biting on the pacifier, it began to swallow like a jujube.
Lin Juexiao held it gently, it was a very beautiful little white cat, with half-open eyes that were foggy blue.
Zhou Jinye walked over silently and squatted beside Lin Juexiao. He and the kitten looked at each other, couldn't help but raised his hand and scratched its chin.
His hands were beautiful, with well-defined bones, broad knuckles, and cyan veins bulging under the skin.
Zhou Jinye said that he didn't lie to Lin Juexiao by liking small animals. He really liked it, especially for such milky things, he had no resistance.
But barely able to maintain Brother Ku's burden, Zhou Jinye let the little milk cat lick his fingertips, and then hugged his fingers and nibbled at him.
Kangkang has just started to grow teeth, and it doesn't hurt at all to chew on them.
Zhou Jinye imitated Lin Juexiao to sit on the ground and asked curiously, "How big is it?"
Lin Juexiao put away Kangkang's clean milk bottle and said, "It should only be about two weeks."
Lin Juexiao touched Kang Kang . Kang's head slid down the golden retriever's fur, who ran over to compete for favor, and recalled, "I picked it up on the way back from work a few days ago, and it was that big back then—"
He gestured, his eyes soft and continued. Said : "It's just that small. It was in a small cardboard box and was thrown beside the flower bed."
Kangkang's nose sniffed on Zhou Jinye's finger, and Zhou Jinye pushed it with his finger.
Lin Juexiao stood up from the ground, patted the ashes on his body, glanced at the time on the wall clock, and said to Zhou Jinye, "I'm going to work first, you're at home—"
His eyes were on Zhou Jinye's teasing Kangkang. He stopped his fingers and said hesitantly, "Can you help me take care of it?"
Seeing Zhou Jinye nod, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Little milk cat, just feed him every two hours. I'm sorry to bother you."
When Zhou Jinye didn't come, he did it all by himself, and he brought the little cat back when he went to work.
Lin Juexiao changed his clothes and waved at Zhou Jinye: "Then I'll go first, I should be back at about twelve o'clock." "Ke
... Brother Xiao."
Zhou Jinye suddenly stopped him, Lin Juexiao was curious Turning his head, he heard the boy ask him, "What are you doing?"
"Me?" Lin Juexiao smiled happily, "Didn't your brother tell you, I'm a veterinarian. "
A veterinarian -
Zhou Jinye rubbed Kangkang's face, showing that he was not emotional, but he was thinking in his heart.
It is really suitable for him, very suitable for Lin Juexiao.
Lin Juexiao was on the night shift today. Surprisingly, there were no emergency emergencies today, except for a few who came to get vaccinated with pets, or picked up kittens and dogs on the roadside for a general examination.
He patiently instructed the little girl holding the pet to focus on raising pets, stretched tiredly, and was ready to go home from get off work.
It was a little early to get off work today. When he entered the door, he had forgotten about the fact that there were more people at home. It was not until he saw Zhou Jinye lying on the sofa that Lin Juexiao suddenly reacted.
The sofa is a bit short for boys, and the long legs are curled up on the sofa, and the arms are almost hanging on the ground.
He didn't sleep very well, and his cold and immature brows were still slightly wrinkled in his sleep.
But at a certain moment-
Zhou Jinye's cell phone ringing on the coffee table rang, and it was his alarm clock.
The boy lying on the bed opened his eyes with a "swoosh". The first reaction was not to turn off the alarm clock, but to pick up the bottle that was emptied by the milk cat on the table.
In this way, Zhou Jinye slowly recovered from Lin Juexiao's light laughter, his right hand was still holding a baby blue bottle, and his hair was not quite upright.
Zhou Jinye: "..."
Lin Juexiao almost fell on the door when he saw his dumbfounded expression.
Zhou Jinye is just a little boy with a cold face and a warm heart.
