After ending the call with Pei Qing, Zhan Weiyang was going to take medicine. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Zhan Weiguang standing at the door looking at him.

       He avoided Zhan Weiguang’s sight and walked forward.

       Zhan Weiguang reached out and grabbed his collar, took a look at his bare feet, and said, “Go put on your shoes.”

       Zhan Weiyang raised his hand to grab his wrist to make him let go, “Let me go first.”

       Auntie Luo came over at this time and asked them, “Aren’t you having breakfast? You should eat breakfast first.”

       Zhan Weiyang returned the phone to Auntie Luo, went back to the room to put on slippers, and took the medicine obediently, and then came back to the dining room on the first floor and sat down.

       Zhan Xiusong had already eaten and went back to the room upstairs to play games. Only Zhan Weiguang and Zhan Weiyang were left at the dining table.

       Zhan Weiyang lowered his head and ate silently without saying a word.

       When Zhan Weiguang was about to speak, he heard the sound of a car being locked outside. Knowing that Zhan Pengcheng had returned, he also fell silent and did not speak.

       After lunch, Pei Qing called Zhan Weiyang to coax him a few words, and then called Zhan Weiguang.

       At that time, Zhan Weiguang was playing games with Zhan Xiusong in his room. When he saw Pei Qing calling, he threw the controller away and walked out with the phone.

       Zhan Xiusong hurriedly called him, “Hello!”

       Zhan Weiguang did not respond.

       Zhan Xiusong noticed that Zhan Weiguang was in a bad mood all day, so he did not dare to say anything, and turned back to stare at the screen silently.

       As soon as the call was connected, Pei Qing said to Zhan Weiguang, “You can ask me any questions, don’t scare Yangyang.”

       By this time, Zhan Weiguang had calmed down. He squatted against the wall and asked in a cold tone, “Explain clearly what happened between you and Zhan Weiyang?”

       Pei Qing said, “It’s what you know. We kissed, but we didn’t do anything else. If you want to ask, I think we are in a relationship.”

       Zhan Weiguang flicked his short hair on his head with a painful expression and asked, “Pei Qing, are you crazy?”

       Pei Qing’s tone was very calm, “What do you mean?”

       Zhan Weiguang said, “You know that Zhan Weiyang is a boy?”

       Pei Qing said ‘En’, “I haven’t had any doubts about that.”

       Zhan Weiguang continued, “And I told you that he drowned when he was a child and had problems with brain development. You said you were in a relationship with him. Does he even understand what being in a relationship means?”

       Pei Qing said, “I think he understands. Have you communicated with him?”

       Zhan Weiguang said hurriedly, “Does he really understand, or did you instil the knowledge in him? Are you sure he didn’t mistake his dependence on you for love?”

       Pei Qing was silent for a long time, and he asked Zhan Weiguang, “Have you tried to ask Yangyang these questions? Not yelling at him, but sitting down and talking to him, asking him what he is thinking and what he thinks.”

       Zhan Weiguang said, “His thoughts are just immature and naive. Should we just indulge him because he thinks this way? Don’t even mention Zhan Weiyang’s intellectual issues; even if he were a normal seventeen-year-old boy, do you think you have a reason to date him?”

       Pei Qing asked, “What if you were him?”

       Zhan Weiguang was stunned, “What?”

       Pei Qing said, “If you were 17 years old, in your second year of high school, and you met someone you liked and wanted to have a relationship with, and your father and your teacher thought your ideas were immature and you should listen to them, what would you think?”

       “I—”

       Pei Qing interrupted him before he finished speaking, “Zhan Weiyang is just an ordinary boy; why can’t you try to communicate with him? You think it’s too early to fall in love at the age of seventeen, and I also think that seventeen is too young. I haven’t thought about doing anything with him. I’m waiting for him to grow up and make a decision when he is more mature. If he meets a girl he likes when he is eighteen and goes to college, and he tells me that he doesn’t like me anymore, I can totally accept it. Do you understand what I mean?”

       Zhan Weiguang said, “I don’t accept it.”

       Pei Qing said, “Then you can try to convince him.”

       Zhan Weiguang was silent.

       Pei Qing continued, “Don’t quarrel; go and talk to him. Tell him what you think, and drive out the bad ideas you think I have instilled in him from his head. No matter what the final result is, I will accept it.”

       After hanging up the phone, Zhan Weiguang squatted in place and hugged his head, and didn’t move for a long time.

       After a while, he heard the sound of a car coming from downstairs, and then he slowly stood up and walked to the window to look downstairs.

       Zhan Pengcheng parked the car at the door of his house, opened the passenger door, and Zhan Weiyang jumped out.

       Zhan Weiyang was supposed to get his phone repaired in the afternoon, but Zhan Pengcheng saw that his phone was broken, so he simply took him out to buy a new one.

       Now, Zhan Weiyang was looking forward to returning to continue calling Pei Qing. At noon, Pei Qing called the home landline, and Zhan Weiyang stood in the living room to answer the phone. He said two short sentences and then hung up.

       Now with a new phone, Zhan Weiyang could not only call Pei Qing, but also video chat with Pei Qing. As he thought of this, he felt happy, and he couldn’t remember the unhappy things in the morning.

       After Zhan Pengcheng sent Zhan Weiyang home, he drove out again. He had many business friends and customers who needed to keep in touch during the Chinese New Year. Except for eating at home on the 30th, he had social events almost every day.

       Zhan Weiyang jogged up the stairs to the second floor and saw Zhan Weiguang standing at the stairs. His expression changed suddenly. He turned sideways to avoid Zhan Weiguang’s sight and continued to walk forward along the wall.

       Zhan Weiguang did not speak either, following Zhan Weiyang silently, and saw Zhan Weiyang still going back to Pei Qing’s room.

       He followed him in, closed the door casually, stood against the wall and asked Zhan Weiyang, “Aren’t you going to live in your own room?”

       Zhan Weiyang was kneeling beside the bed, studying his new mobile phone. He looked up at him and said, “Wait a minute.”

       He felt that this room still had the atmosphere of Pei Qing’s life, and he was reluctant to move out, so he wanted to wait for a few days.

       Zhan Weiguang was a little dazed. In his impression, he had never had a serious chat with Zhan Weiyang. What was he talking about? His brother was like a little fool. Their thinking was never in the same world. He always thought that when Zhan Pengcheng was gone one day, he only needed to give Zhan Weiyang a good meal and a good place to live, and he would have fulfilled his obligations.

       He thought they didn’t need to communicate, but Pei Qing repeatedly asked him to talk to Zhan Weiyang.

       Zhan Weiguang walked to the other side of the bed, knelt down beside the bed like Zhan Weiyang, put his arms on the bed, and said, “Zhan Weiyang, can you talk to me properly?”

       Zhan Weiyang moved his eyes away from the phone screen and looked at his face, “What?”

       Zhan Weiguang felt a little awkward but still tried to speak in a serious and calm tone, “Do you like Pei Qing?”

       Zhan Weiyang nodded, “I like him very much.”

       Zhan Weiguang raised his hand and scratched his face, asking, “Do you like me or Pei Qing more?”

       Zhan Weiyang looked at him strangely, as if he was looking at a fool, “Of course I like Pei Qing, why should I like you?”

       Zhan Weiguang said, “Because I am your brother.”

       Zhan Weiyang lowered his head to look at the phone and ignored him.

       Zhan Weiguang didn’t know how to continue the topic.

       Unexpectedly, Zhan Weiyang took the initiative to talk after a while, “I’m not going to spend my whole life with you.”

       Zhan Weiguang was stunned and took some time to understand what he meant, “You want to spend your whole life with Pei Qing?”

       Zhan Weiyang smiled a little shyly, his round eyes flickering with light, and he said, “Except for not being able to have children with Qing ge, I can do everything else. Why can’t we be together for a lifetime?”

       Zhan Weiguang looked at him blankly.

       Zhan Weiyang still had a smile on his face, “It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t have a child, it’s enough that he has me.”

       Zhan Weiguang waited for a while, and asked tentatively, “Did Pei Qing say these words to you?”

       Zhan Weiyang looked at him, “No, that’s what I thought. I also thought that when my father is old, I will let Dad and Grandma live with us, and I can take good care of them.”

       Zhan Weiguang couldn’t find the words for a while, and asked after a long time, “What about me?”

       Zhan Weiyang looked at him strangely, “Aren’t you getting married?”

       Zhan Weiguang thought their conversation was magical and deliberately said, “What if I don’t get married?”

       Zhan Weiyang frowned, lowered his head and stared at the bed sheet for a while and said, “You can live next door to me, don’t live in my house.”

       Zhan Weiguang was angry and amused, “Do you hate me so much?”

       Zhan Weiyang said, “I will take care of you, but you are not allowed to control me or be mean to me, let alone scold Qing ge.”

       Zhan Weiguang had mixed emotions for a moment and couldn’t help laughing out loud.
