C23 (2/2)
The wind from outside blew in through the windows of the corridor, making Wu Tie feel a little cold and trembling in his body. He looked at the tightly closed door in Cheng Hanlong's bedroom and listened carefully for a while, but found no sound of someone hitting him. Realizing that he was being a little superfluous, he turned around and walked downstairs.
The street lamps outside were extinguished, so shouldn't the dormitory close? As Du Gong wandered along the street, he felt in his pockets and found that he only had 8 yuan left. All the money he had on him was used up when he was looking for Cheng Cheng today. He felt that what he said was laughable. It was pretty good, enough for him to stay in the Internet Cafe for the night, Du Gong said to himself in self-mockery. He quickened his pace and headed towards the Internet Cafe.
Cheng Hanlong took the clothes to the bathroom without a second thought. He didn't want to bother with what Cheng Cheng had said to him. When he came out of the bathroom, Cheng Cheng was still standing where he was when he went in and looked at Cheng Hanlong pitifully. Cheng Hanlong ignored him and went straight to bed. He even turned off the lights. The room was dark.
Cheng Cheng did not move. His shadow in the darkness was very clear and entered Cheng Hanlong's eyes. Cheng Hanlong's mind was filled with the abnormal behavior of Du Gong. This behavior gave him a sense of almost despair, but he had no way of knowing why. He always felt that there was something he couldn't let go of in his heart. This thing could easily change his mood.
”Turn on the lights!” After nearly an hour, Cheng Hanlong finally could not hold it in anymore and said to Cheng Cheng, who was standing on the ground.
Cheng Cheng's legs were a little sore, but when he heard Cheng Hanlong open his mouth to talk, he ignored everything else and quickly walked towards the switch of the headlight. When the headlight was turned on, the room immediately lit up.
Before Cheng Cheng could turn around, he felt a kick on his butt. He staggered and almost fell to the ground. Then, Cheng Hanlong grabbed him and kicked Cheng Cheng's butt again. This time, he fell to the ground right away. Cheng Hanlong grabbed him, threw him onto the bed, then directly put a pillow under his butt and ripped off Cheng Cheng's pants. He waved his hand and hit towards his butt.
At first, when Cheng Hanlong saw that Cheng Cheng didn't have too big of a reaction, he felt that his strength wasn't enough. He increased his strength, and the frequency became faster and faster. Cheng Cheng finally sobbed and lay motionless on the bed, clutching the sheets so tightly that the tears fell like beads from a broken string. Cheng Hanlong hit him repeatedly, admitting his mistake.
”Big brother …” I know I was wrong, do you hate me that much … ”Howl …” Cheng Hanlong only stopped when he felt that his hands were numb. He didn't even look at Cheng Cheng as he sat there gloomily.
Cheng Cheng crawled to Cheng Hanlong's side, crying as he said, ”Brother, you hit...” Just calm down! ”Don't let me go, I'm not leaving …”
Cheng Hanlong looked at Cheng Cheng's crying face and then at the red swollen butt behind him. He felt a bit regretful, but he held it in and didn't show it.
Cheng Cheng felt incredibly wronged in his heart. It wasn't that he shouldn't have been hit, but the person who hit him was the person he most wanted to be doted on. Every slap on his body felt several times more painful than the previous one. In the end, the more he thought about it, the more tears he would shed. Cheng Hanlong's heart went from depressed to in pain.
If he remembered correctly, it had been five years since he came to Cheng Cheng's house. He had never seen Cheng Cheng cry before. Although the child in front of him looked weak and a little weak, he was very tenacious. Perhaps he had suffered all sorts of hardships when he was young and many of the injuries were nothing in his eyes, but today, he had forced him to cry.
He began to hate himself for being so impetuous, for being so fond of a child. Rather than saying that he was doing his duty as a brother to Cheng Cheng, it would be more accurate to say that the punishment was an vent to his anger. No matter what. To Cheng Cheng, it was too heavy.
Cheng Hanlong looked down at Cheng Cheng and found that he had fallen asleep while crying. Other than feeling wronged, there was also helplessness on his face.
