He Yue's conditioned reflex followed his gaze. The person next to him was expressionless and stared straight at the thin man, biting his cheeks, and his hands hanging on both sides unconsciously clenched into fists.

"I, I'm working here." The man raised his head, looked at Jiang Haojie first, and then his eyes fell on Qiu Qing'an, and immediately became nervous, his lips trembled, and he spoke incoherent words.

"I know! Are you talking nonsense?" Jiang Haojie kicked the chair next to him in anger, and the wooden foot slashed across the floor, making a harsh sound, which attracted everyone else to see.

"I'll ask you why you're here!" Jiang Haojie raised his tone and almost growled. The man shivered and explained tremblingly.

"Me, I can't find any other jobs. My fellow villager introduced me to me. I didn't mean it..."

"You go away now!" Jiang Haojie stretched out his hand and pointed to the door.

"I'll go find your boss, I don't want to see you here again."

Hearing this, the man immediately showed a pleading look, a little frightened and helpless, all of which were revealed from his muddy eyes.

Heyue saw that the person next to him slowly let go of his fists and his shoulders collapsed slightly, as if he had taken off all his strength.

"Forget it, Haozi." Qiu Qing'an reached out and pressed Jiang Haojie's shoulder, his voice very low.

"let's go."

As he said that, he stopped looking at the man in front of him, and almost couldn't wait to leave the place with great strides.

Jiang Haojie struggled for a few seconds, glared at the person in front of him, and then strode to chase after him. The others were puzzled and looked at the man in confusion, and hurriedly followed him.

Until the platform outside, Qiu Qing'an seemed to calm down a little. His face was not that ugly, but it was also scary.

No one else dared to speak, looked at him secretly, and looked at Heyue and Jiang Haojie as if asking for help.

"You guys go back first!" Jiang Haojie waved his hand and issued an order.

"You go first, too." Qiu Qing'an raised his head and looked at him, his tone calm.

"Just go back with Heyue."

"Okay, then, then you guys are careful." Jiang Haojie looked at the two of them with some concern and hesitated. In the end, he left with the others.

The excitement faded, and they were the only ones left at this remote bus stop. Qiu Qing'an sat on the chair, lowered his eyes, and He Yue slowly walked to him.

The boy opened his hand and buried his face in her waist. He Yue touched his head without saying anything.

Qiu Qing'an told her a story, which he said in his own words.

When he entered junior high school, his mother took him to move and moved closer to the school.

There, they met a new neighbor, and no one had any strange eyes to them, but instead they were all peaceful and kind.

Neighbors began to communicate, and each household would give each other some food.

Living next door to them is a man living alone. He has never been married. He feels honest and kind, and always smiles when he sees them.

Qiu Qing'an's mother takes him alone, and the family will always encounter some small difficulties, such as the faucet breaks down, sudden power outage, and a large item that needs to be moved.

When a man sees him, he will come to help him actively. Qiu's mother will give him some fruit or food he made as a thank you gift.

After a while, the relationship became a little familiar.

Men will not be too alert when they come to their family.

Qiu Qing'an would take the initiative to say hello to him when he went out to see him.

I started to have evening self-study when I went to junior high school, and Qiu Qing'an's academic studies were a lot worse. I went out early and came back late every day, and I communicated much less with Qiu's mother. I didn't notice that she occasionally wanted to speak.

It was about the first semester of the second year of junior high school. Qiu Qing'an went home after class and pushed open the door. He saw the man pressing on Qiu's mother in the living room. His face was almost twisted, and he eagerly tore her clothes.

Qiu Qing'an went crazy, that was his first time beating someone.

After that, Qiu Qing'an called the police directly, and the man fled and disappeared. Who knew that a few days later, Qiu Qing'an actually met him outside the school.

He came to find Qiu Qing'an in a special way. He begged him in a embarrassing and earnest manner, saying that he really liked Qiu's mother and wanted to be with her, and hoped that he would not call the police.

Before Qiu Qing'an finished listening to him, his mind was gone. He pressed him to the ground and hit him like crazy. When he waved his fist, he saw Qiu's mother who was pushing open that night.

He just wished he could beat him to death.

Later, the two moved. Because of this, Qiu's mother did not dare to go out for a long time and communicated with others. When she saw a strange man, she would unconsciously shrink her body and be afraid of strangers.

So for such a long time, Qiu Qing'an never met his neighbors. They lived alone on the fourth floor and accompanied each other. After Qiu's mother passed away, Qiu Qing'an completely locked himself in it, guarding the small world and unable to take steps.

It was the kind of persistence that he knocked a small hole in the thick wall and a light came in.

......

"So, is that man just now?" He Yue asked softly after hearing this, Qiu Qing'an didn't look up.

"Um."

"Do you still hate him?" He Yue stroked Qiu Qing'an's hair and lowered his eyes.

The person in his arms let go of his hand, Qiu Qing'an straightened up and shook his head.

"No." His face was very calm.

"He has been punished as he deserves, and..."

"He is not doing well now." Qiu Qing'an lowered his head, as if he was talking to himself.

"I actually think he looks a little pitiful."

Calculate the time, it should be that it is not long before a middle-aged man without any skills or education to survive in this society.

Qiu Qing'an felt that he was much older than the old man a few years ago.

"It's all over." He Yue said warmly.

"Let's go home."

"Okay." Qiu Qing'an looked up at her, and there seemed to be light in his eyes.
