Chapter 120: 不回去，然然不想回去
[No, Ran Ran doesn’t want to go back.]

“Let go of Ran Ran.” Lin Ran struggled hard, wanting to break away from Song Zhi Xu’s embrace.

Song Zhi Xu has been waiting for Lin Ran for several days. This morning, he saw Lin Ran when he came, but afraid of scaring Lin Ran again so he didn’t show himself. Now, since he came out, he will not let Lin Ran leave again.

“Ran Ran, I’ve been looking for you for a long time, don’t hide from me, I won’t let you go.” Song Zhi Xu’s voice was hoarse and powerful, but his arms around Lin Ran still didn’t dare to tighten, just ensuring that he struggled in his arms and wouldn’t go out.

“Let go, Song Zhi Xu doesn’t like Ran Ran, he likes Gege.” Lin Ran still has some stubbornness to say, the previous things in his mind left too deep memories.

“I don’t, Ran Ran, I don’t like others, I only like you. You believe me.” Song Zhi Xu’s voice has already brought a trace of choking, how can he let go of Lin Ran this time?

Lin Ran’s struggling action stopped, also his eyes reddened, Song Zhi Xu seems to be very sad, he does not want Song Zhi Xu to be like this.

“Song Zhi Xu…” Lin Ran called out in a small voice again.

Song Zhi Xu didn’t answer him, he just buried his head on the side of his neck, and his warm breath hit his neck, and before long, it seemed like there was warm liquid flowing down his neck and into his clothes.

After buying the buns, Auntie Wang sat in the shop for a while, she finished eating the buns and did not see Lin Ran go in. He felt somehow uneasy as he came out to look for people. As soon as he left the door, he saw Lin Ran was held by a man from the back, the two people with a kind of intimate gesture stuck together, Lin Ran’s eyes were still a little red.

“Ran Ran … What’s wrong?” Auntie Wang looked at the man behind Lin Ran’s back, very tall and thin, wearing a black long-fitting fez, but also quite straight. He does not seem to be a hooligan ah, but this, on the street, holding someone…

Lin Ran saw Auntie Wang, panicked for a moment, biting his lip, not knowing how to explain, struggling hard a few times. This time he was released by Song Zhixu, but Song Zhixu pulled his hands over again.

Song Zhi Xu lifted up his head, his face had already recovered, only the end of his eyes were still a little red, he looked at the woman in front of him, he also knew that she had been helping Lin Ran all these days, so he nodded at her.

“I’m here to take Ran Ran home, thank you for taking care of Ran Ran these days. I’ll give you some thanks.” Song Zhixu said sincerely.

He knew that when Ran Ran left him, he had no way to live on his own. Lin Ran had never left home on his own until now, and now that Lin Ran is able to stand here properly, he must have received a lot of help.

Song Zhixu is good-looking, but also a sincere and serious look, so that Auntie Wang has some embarrassment, hurriedly waved his hand and whispered,

“Ran Ran has suffered a lot, I didn’t help him much, no need to thank you.”

Before Song Zhixu could say anything else, Lin Ran moved, using his empty hand to push Song Zhixu’s hand away.

“No go back, Ran Ran don’t want to go back, Song Zhi Xu go back by yourself”

He still has Little Bad waiting for him in his little house. He made money today, and he’s going to buy meat for Little Bad. He doesn’t want to go back to that big, empty house with Song Zhixu, and he doesn’t want to be locked in there.

“Ran Ran… Your body…. I don’t feel at ease outside, it was hard for me to find you, will you go home with me?”

Song Zhixu won’t let go of him, Lin Ran is so anxious that he is about to cry, if he is taken back by Song Zhixu, what about his little bad (Xiao Huai).

Song Zhixu sensed Lin Ran’s resistance and couldn’t bear to force him any further. He used his thumb to gently rub the tears flowing from Lin Ran’s eyes, and used a gentle voice to discuss with him.

“Ran Ran, okay.I won’t take you back, but will you let me follow you around? I promise not to disturb you or force you to go back?”

Auntie Wang looked at the way the two youngsters were kissing each other, and knowing that the two would be just fine, she shook her head and went back to continue eating the buns.

Lin Ran bit his lip, hesitated for a while, and repeated in a small voice.

“Not going back to the big house.”

“Okay, if I don’t go back, I’ll follow you and not disturb you.” Song Zhixu immediately answered.

Only then did Lin Ran nod his head, after working all morning without eating, Lin Ran smelled the aroma of the buns, his stomach came to him with a gurgling sound, he said in low voice,

“Ran Ran is hungry, going to eat buns.”

Song Zhixu replied, pulling Lin Ran into the steamed bun shop.

Lin Ran looked at Song Zhixu when he bought the steamed buns, and then used the ten yuan that Song Zhixu had just stepped on to buy four buns, two for himself and two for Song Zhixu.

It was the first time Song Zhixu had ever entered such a small roadside shop,but he didn’t mind at all. He helped Lin Ran to sit down and watched Lin Ran eating the buns in small bites.

Seeing that Lin Ran’s two buns were finished, he immediately passed his own over.

“Are you still eating?”

Lin Ran shook his head, “Ran Ran is full, can’t eat more.”

After his stomach got bigger, Lin Ran ate very little. He felt full after eating a little, but he often would feel hungry.

Song Zhixu looked at Lin Ran, lost quite a lot, not much meat on his body, face somehow pale, frowned, his heart felt even uncomfortable. He passed the buns, after determining that Lin Ran wont eat it anymore, he only had a few bites to finish.

Because it happened to be lunch time, there were a lot of people in the small shop, yet there were not enough tables. The three people finished eating and did not stay inside for long, and soon came out, went back to the place where they were handing out the flyers and waited until the afternoon time came and then continued to hand them out.

Outside is too cold, Song Zhixu just stood not long before he felt heartache as he discussed with Lin Ran.

“Ran Ran, it’s too cold outside, and it just snowed a few days ago, so let’s not stay here anymore, okay?”

“No.” Lin Ran shook his head without even thinking, and said in a small voice, “Ran Ran wants to earn money, I will go back at night.”

Song Zhixu was at a loss for words.

He had Auntie Wang’s account number but couldn’t get in touch with her, so he could only contact the part-time recruiter again, wanting to raise the commission to lure the recruiter, and that’s why he raised the wages.

Song Zhixu originally wanted to increase the commission to 2,000 for one day of sending out flyers, but the other party said it would be regarded as a scam, so the commission was finally increased from 50 to 100.

I didn’t realize that Lin Ran would end up freezing on the roadside for a day for this hundred yuan.

He secretly regretted that he should have pressed 100 per hour.

Song Zhixu persuaded Lin Ran, Lin Ran stood here for half a day, he refused to go if the work is not finished yet, and finally had no choice Song Zhixu help Lin Ran find a place to block the wind, let him rest, and then put his own down jacket for him to wear, he sent a half-day flyer for him instead.

In the evening, finally receiving a hundred yuan, Song Zhixu originally wanted to drive Lin Ran back, but Lin Ran must take the bus, Song Zhixu can only use Lin Ran’s two yuan, with him to enter the bus.

When Lin Ran came down from the bus, Auntie Wang saw that she could not intervene in the conversation, so she got off the bus and separated from Lin Ran.

After saying goodbye, Lin Ran led Song Zhixu towards the convenience store.

While walking, Lin Ran looked at Song Zhixu beside him and asked in a low voice.

“Song Zhixu, you are not going home?”

Song Zhi Xu had been following him for a day, and he was about to go home.

“Ran Ran… I … I have no place to go because my villa is broken, so I’ll stay here for a day, ok?” Song Zhixu casually found a reason, said in low voice,

Lin Ran turned to look at Song Zhi Xu, and knew that it was hard not having a place to go, but he was still a little hesitant.

“Ran Ran’s house is small, there’s no more beds.”

There was only one bedroom in his place, and if he slept there, then there would be no place for Song Zhi Xu.

“It doesn’t matter, just have a place for me to stay then it’s okay.” Song Zhixu immediately answered.

In the end, Lin Ran agreed to let Song Zhi Xu go back with him.

When the two of them arrived at the convenience store, Lin Ran bought a piece of chicken breast and a small handful of greens, paid the bill and left.

Song Zhixu watched Lin Ran hand out ten yuan and carefully put the change into his pocket. His heart was very sore.

This is Lin Ran’s life in these two months. Before, except Lin Mu would give him a big red packet every year as the new year’s money, Lin Ran almost never touched the money.

Song Zhixu’s hand clenched and unclenched, he felt sorry for Lin Ran, even blamed himself more, if not because of him Lin Ran will not experience these things.

The two people slowly walked forward, the sky was somewhat dark, Song Zhi Xu followed Lin Ran all the way into the dilapidated small area, he froze for a while and did not return to his senses.

This side of the building, not knowing how old the old house was, the remote location with no one to manage, dilapidated and dirty. The roadside, he does not know how long since it was cleaned up. The overflowing bins, mingled with the smell of the sewers, smelled terrible.

“Ran Ran… You live here these days?” Song Zhixu went forward again and took Lin Ran’s hand, the road was too dark, the trees overhead blocked the light, and there were no streetlights, he was afraid Lin Ran would fall.

“Hn, it’s very good here.” Lin Ran replied, leading Song Zhixu onwards.

When they entered the building, the lights on several floors were broken, so Song Zhixu used his mobile phone to illuminate the lights before leading Lin Ran up the stairs.

Walked to the door of a room, Lin Ran took out the key, before opening the door inside, “meow” sounded, as soon as he opened the door to see something in the room, in the light of the mobile phone lamp, a pair of green eyes flashing light.

Song Zhixu was shocked, the cat inside the door saw Song Zhixu, also shocked, all of a sudden ran inside and disappeared.

Lin Ran turned on the light in the room to let Song Zhixu in, and apologized toward the hidden Xiao Huai in the corner.

“I’m sorry, Ran Ran came back late, Little Bad is hungry.”

Little Bad didn’t answer him, and looked at Song Zhixu defensively.

Lin Ran left Song Zhi Xu in the living room and went into the kitchen to start cooking.

Song Zhixu hurriedly glanced at the small living room and wanted to go to the kitchen to help, but he couldn’t get in, the space inside was too small and could only fit one person.

Song Zhixu could only stand in the doorway, watching in amazement as Lin Ran cut half of the chicken breast he had bought, then cut it into small pieces, washed and boiled it in water, then boiled some noodles and blanched green vegetables.

Lin Ran never dared to touch these things before, but now he is actually cooking noodles?
