Chapter 5

"Brother Rui?"

"..."

"Brother Rui!"

Yu Rui's shoulder was photographed and he sank. After returning to his senses, he turned his gaze and saw Qiao Shengyu chasing up from behind in a puzzled manner, "I'll give you the homework, thank you!"

"Well, you are welcome."

"But what did you just think, so engrossed? I called you back several times and you didn't respond."

"It's okay." Yu Rui walked out two steps, hesitated and asked: "Do you know Ye Mumu?"

"Ye Mumu?" Qiao Shengyu was stunned for two seconds, and then suddenly, "Oh oh, when I went back to get my schoolbag, I heard someone in the classroom say that she blocked the door and confessed to you today, right?"

Yu Rui helplessly, "It doesn't count."

"Ye Mumu's brother is off-campus, so it's really not easy to provoke, but if you are worried about her coming to threaten you next time, Brother Rui, leave it to me and I will help you to clear it." Qiao Shengyu patted his chest banging.

"I can solve Ye Mumu's matter."

"Then what do you bother about?"

"..." Yu Rui was silent for a moment, frowning rarely, "Xie Li had a conflict with Ye Mumu today. Will her brother do anything to Xie Li?"

Upon hearing Xie Li's name, Qiao Shengyu's expression suddenly became weird, "Xie Li seems to be very kind to you, are you still worried about him?"

"This happened because of me. If he has an accident, then I can't explain it to the teacher."

"It's also..." Qiao Shengyu scratched his head, "but you don't have to worry about Xie Li at all, he won't have any accidents."

"?" Yu Rui stopped.

"I can't tell if there are too many. Just remember Brother Rui, don't provoke Xie Li if you have anything to do, you can stay as far away as you can from him."

Qiao Shengyu murmured something again. Before Yu Rui could speak again, he waved his hand and walked noisily with the group of punk friends in school.

Yu Rui stood in place, her expression uncertain.

One of his tenets of life is to protect oneself wisely. So he didn't want to provoke Xie Li who was obviously sick and unclear.

However, the current situation is that he doesn't cause trouble, but trouble seems to be on him.

"Thanks, Li."

Yu Rui frowned and read it again, pursing her lips, putting on her headphones and leaving.

Yu Rui lives in the old city. The walls of the residential buildings in the small area are mottled, and the side floors are covered with creepers, apparently for some years.

Here is the dormitory building at the end of the last century, the highest five floors, there is no elevator, and the corridors are also dilapidated. The sensor lights on the second and third floors had been broken for a long time, and Yu Rui slowed down to avoid the debris accumulated in the corridor.

On the fourth floor, he took out the key, unlocked and entered the house. However, the house was also dim.

Yu Rui stopped in the hallway, "Little Li?"

The empty living room was quiet for a long time. Accompanied by the sound of a rotten metal door shaft, the door of a small bedroom was pushed open from inside.

The thin figure in the dark stood for a while, and whispered: "Brother."

Hearing the voice of her sister Yu Li, Yu Rui breathed a sigh of relief, with a gentle smile on her face.

"Why don't you turn on the lights?"

"I turned off the light when I finished my homework, and I can't waste electricity." The girl whispered in the darkness.

Yu Rui helplessly, he glanced at the closed door of the master bedroom, "That person didn't come back?"

The girl narrowed her eyes and shook her head.

"Have you had dinner?"

Yu Li shook her head again.

Yu Rui turned on the light in the living room and put his schoolbag on the sofa. Then he smiled and straightened, raising his hand and rubbing the girl's hair.

"Then you go back to your room and read a book first, I'll cook and call you."

"Isn't your brother tired? Let me do it."

"You?" Yu Rui walked to the kitchen, and a joking laugh came back, "Let you come to the kitchen?"

"I won't!"

"I'll be fine, you can go back to Wenshu."

"Oh……"

Yu Ruiqing fry two green vegetables out of the pot, and when he was about to take it to the restaurant, he saw Yu Li running into the kitchen with his mobile phone.

"Brother, someone called you."

"Well, whose call?" Yu Rui asked without looking back.

"I don't recognize the number and voice, but it's a bit fierce." Yu Li recalled, "He asked who I was, but I didn't tell him."

"Yeah." Yu Rui washed his hands and took it. As expected, there was an unfamiliar number on the screen. "Little Li, take the food to the living room first."

"good."

Yu Li left, Yu Rui hesitated for two seconds while facing the phone, then called back.

The opposite is almost connected in seconds.

"Is the squad leader busy at night?" The tone was lowly mocking, still with the coolness of the night.

The smile on Yu Ruiqingjun's face faded, "What's wrong with Xie Li?"

"Who is the girl who just answered the phone?"

"It has nothing to do with you."

"So it's your girlfriend."

"..."

Yu Rui discovered that this person had a "special ability"-Xie Li seemed to be able to easily drain the endurance he had cultivated for more than ten years, and then brought him close to the edge of breaking power in the shortest time.

Yu Rui endured forbearance, "That's my sister."

"Ah." The other side paused for two seconds, and suddenly smiled, "I didn't say good evening to my sister, it's rude. I'll apologize for bringing her a gift next time."

Yu Rui: "..."

Yu Rui: "That's my sister, not your sister. And I won't let you see her."

"Tsk. The squad leader who came home is really cold." The man laughed dumbly, "Is it because there is no one else there, so I don't need to hide it?"

"...If you are okay, then I'm going to hang up."

"Okay, good night, monitor."

"..."

When he heard the beep, Yu Rui hadn't recovered.

He stood there for a few seconds before reacting, and then put down the phone in a stiff motion. The words "Call End" are being displayed on the lit up screen.

Yu Rui: "?"

The phone call didn't say anything, as if only to say good night... What kind of sick state is this?

"Brother, eat."

"Well, here it is."

Yu Rui put away the gloom in his eyes and walked to the living room.

After the meal, Yu Rui checked Yu Li's homework and urged her to go to bed.

The girl in her early ten years was just when her mind was sprouting, pestering Yu Rui and him, talking about school affairs with excitement. Yu Rui has always been the most patient with Yu Li, without any anxiety, until he coaxed the girl to fall asleep, and then he got up and left the room softly.

Yu Rui returned to her room after finishing the tableware in the living room. When he put on rimless glasses and finished half of a brand new paper, the outside door of his house was suddenly slammed.

"Bang!" "Bang!"

The rumbling sound is like waking up the whole building, and it is also vaguely accompanied by the man's rough drunken curse——

"Little rabbit, bastard... where are you dead! Don't hurry up to... open the door to Lao Tzu!"

Under the pale light, young Qingjun's face didn't show too many surprises.

The mood in the dark eyes is also indifferent.

He turned around and glanced at the closed door of Yu Li's small bedroom. Without hesitation for long, he turned around and went to the hallway to open the door to the drunk outside.

As soon as the metal door was opened, there was a disgusting smell of alcohol on the face.

Yu Rui frowned.

Two people stood outside the door. The one on the left, Yu Rui, didn't know and didn't want to know; the one on the right was still cursing at this moment, and was supported by the person beside him like mud.

"You're Yu Rui, right?" The unknown person smiled awkwardly at Yu Rui, "Your dad drank too much again, and finally found his house. You can help him go back."

Yu Rui did not reach out.

He just stood there calmly, glanced at his drunk father like a stranger, and then raised his eyes coldly.

"Uncle, if he still drinks like this next time, you don't need to send him back. It doesn't matter if you leave it on the side of the road."

"……what?"

"My sister is young and sleeps lightly. She will have to go to school tomorrow morning, so she can't afford to toss her. If you take him back again next time, if you get him drunk and send him back, don't blame me for not opening the door for you."

"Hi, look at you kid..."

The drunk-eyed Yu Congsheng seemed to be awake, twisted a few times, and pointed at Yu Rui with indifferent eyes, yelling: "You rabbit, bastardI don't even care about your dad, right!? I gave birth to you two and lost money. Goods-bah!"

The man next to him held his hand awkwardly, not knowing what to say. He looked back at the young man standing inside the door. He thought he would see his face flushed red, but he didn't expect the young man to hear nothing.

Cursing was endless, Yu Rui only frowned before the man's voice became louder. "Xiao Li is already asleep, don't wake her up."

"You fucking even dare to teach me! Who will give you the courage!"

The man's face was flushed red, and the more he talked, the more excited he was. He suddenly raised his hand and slapped the boy's face.

A crisp slap in the face.

Yu Rui's face was slapped to the side. The rimless glasses were a bit crooked, hung on the bridge of the straightened nose, and the cold white skin quickly turned dazzling red.

There was a fishy sweetness in the throat.

This time even the person outside the door was stunned, and returned to his senses and hurriedly went to pull Yu Congsheng, "Lao Yu, are you confused by drinking? Why are you hitting your own children!"

He didn't dared to let the father and son get along again, and quickly half-dragged Yu Congsheng, sent the person into the master bedroom, threw the person on the bed, and closed the door.

The man pacified Yu Rui awkwardly before leaving.

The door closed.

Yu Rui stood silently on the spot for a while, raising his hand just in time for his glasses.

Without turning his head, he turned and walked into his room.

The paper on the desk is half done. Under the light of the desk lamp, the handwriting has doubled up dim shadows.

Yu Rui sat down at the table and picked up a pencil. After completing the two multiple-choice questions, the pen tip stopped, leaving a light lead on the surface of the volume.

Then the pencil was put on the table.

The young man at the table slowly leaned back into the back of the wooden chair.

After a while, he laughed in a low voice.

Perhaps the lamp's light was too dazzling, and smiling, Yu Rui raised his hand to cover his closed eyes.

Then he died.

The window was open, and the scorching wind rushed into the room in late summer.

In the heat, Yu Rui looked at the ceiling and shivered slightly.
