狼行成双 || wolves of a pair prowl together [English Translation]

- 5 -

At ten o'clock in the evening, Qiu Yi got dressed, walked out from the back door of the hotel, and stood. He lit a cigarette next to the trash can at the back door, lowered his head and took out his mobile phone.
　　
There was a missed call from ten minutes ago on the phone. It was Dad's number. He dialed the call back.
　　
The phone rang and was picked up, and an immature voice sounded over there: "Brother."
　　
"Qiu Yan? Why are you still up?" Qiu Yi frowned, "You just called?"
　　
"Already. I went to bed and called you on the bed." Qiu Yan whispered.
　　
"I'm going back now, you go to bed right away," Qiu Yi said, "You will be finished if you are awake when I get home."
　　
"I'm asleep now." Qiu Yan said quickly, calling hung up.
　　
Qiu Yi smoked two cigarettes, and there were some nonsense from Zhang XiaoRong on the phone. He deleted it. When he put the phone back in his pocket, the sound of high heels came from behind him. When he turned around, he smelled the perfume. 
　　
"Sister Man." He greeted the woman who came out from the back door.
　　
Sister Man's name is Xiao Man, who is in her thirties. She is one of the two owners of the restaurant. She is in charge of the usual operations.
　　
"Thanks for your hard work today," Xiao Man stopped and glanced at him. "Are you the one introduced by Zhang Ting before, called Qiu Yi? I haven't talked to you yet."
　　
Xiao Man has nothing to do with the staff and the relationship is very close, she like to hear people call her sister, and she like to talk to the staff when she has nothing to do.
　　
"Yeah." Qiu Yi nodded, staggered a step and stood under the wind of Xiao Man, pinching the smoke in his hand.
　　
"This cigarette smells nothing," Xiao Man smiled and stared at him again, "Where do you live? I'll drop you off by the way."
　　
"No, I'll ride a bicycle..." Qiu Yi say.
　　
"What kind of bicycle is riding on such a strong wind?" Xiao Man interrupted the conversation, and patted him on his back. "Throw the bicycle on my car and go." Before Qiu Yi could speak, Xiao Man had turned around and left for the parking.

Qiu Yi frowned and followed behind her.

Xiao Man's car is a Toyota pickup. Qiu Yi couldn't even find the reason that "the trunk can't fit the bicycle", so he threw his bicycle into the back and got into Xiao Man's car.
　　
"Zhang Ting said you were in your second  year of high school this year, right?" Xiao Man drove in the direction of his home.
　　
"Yeah." Qiu Yi responded.
　　
"Is it hard to go to class and work like this?" Xiao Man asked again.
　　
"It's OK," Qiu Yi looked out the window, "I don't feel it."

"A student who has worked so hard to work, is there a problem at home?" Xiao Man turned his head and looked at him.
　　
"Yeah." Qiu Yi turned his face.
　　
"If you have any difficulties, tell me, our restaurant will help the staff." Xiao Man said.
　　
"Thank you Sister Man." Qiu Yi smiled.
　　
"you guy is not very talkative." Xiao Man continued to look at him with interest.
　　
"It's cold." Qiu Yi turned his face out of the window again.
　　
This sentence made Xiao Man laugh for a long time, and finally reached out and patted his lap: "You are funny."
　　
Qiu Yi's home is a bit far away from the restaurant. It is in a good location in an old alley. Dad has been waiting for demolition, but after waiting for more than ten years, nothing happened.
　　
When he got home, the yard was very quiet, and several households had turned off the lights.
　　
He took out the key and opened the door, the light in the living room at home was also turned off, a small night light was on by the door, and a few rays of light were faintly revealed under the crack in the door of Dad's bedroom.
　　
Without turning on the light, he gently pushed open the door of Dad's bedroom, and said softly: "I'm back."
　　
"A little earlier than usual." Dad said in the wheelchair "Qiu Yan is asleep, keep it quiet," 

Qiu Yi entered the bedroom and closed the door back. "Are you going to sleep too, do you want to go to the bathroom?"
　　
"I've gone." Dad lowered his voice.
　　
"You don't have to wait for me, I may go home." Qiu Yi pushed the wheelchair to the bed, and when he hugged his father onto the bed, he felt pain in his ribs. He gritted his teeth and rubbed his father after putting him down. Rubbing the position where the knee was injured by BianNan.
　　
After closing the door of his father's bedroom, Qiu Yi entered his room and saw Qiu Yan lying on the pillow by the light from the window, with most of his back exposed outside the quilt.
　　
He walked over and bent over and stared at Qiu Yan's face. The little guy closed his eyes, his eyelashes trembling lightly.
　　
"Pretend ." Qiu Yi said.
　　
Qiu Yan didn't move, but closed his eyes, but his eyelashes trembled more intensely.
　　
"Next time, let me see that you haven't slept before ten o'clock, and you won't have to sleep anymore," Qiu Yi said.
　　
"Then can't you come back earlier?" Qiu Yan opened his eyes and said aggrievedly.
　　
"Don't pretend?" Qiu Yi squatted down by the bed. "I'll be back sooner. If you have no money in the future, will you push your dad out to beg for food?"
　　
Qiu Yan bit his lip and buried his face in the pillow. After a while, his shoulder twitched slightly a few times.
　　
"Cry?" Qiu Yi got up, took off his clothes, changed into a T-shirt, opened the door and walked out, "I'll take a shower and cry for ten minutes."
　　
Qiu Yi returned to the room after washing. At that time, Qiu Yan was still lying on the pillow, but he was not crying anymore.
　　
He turned off the light, went to bed, lay down beside Qiu Yan, reached out his hand and slapped his buttocks: "Come here, brother will hug you."
　　
Qiu Yan quickly turned over and got into his arms and hugged his waist.
　　
"Hey," Qiu Yi hid, "Don't press my ribs, it hurts."
　　
"Brother," Qiu Yan buried his face in his arm with a nasal voice, "You are fighting again."
　　
"I didn't do it first. "Qiu Yi hugged Qiu Yan, and Bian Nan's angry eyes dazzled before his eyes. He smiled, "I just owe a word."
　　
"I got a little red flower today, and I got full marks on the math test." Qiu Yan said in a low voice, with pride in his voice.
　　
"Really? It's amazing." Qiu Yi sat up, took out his wallet from the jacket on the side of the bed, took a steel out of it, put it in the piggy bank by the bed, and flicked it on Qiu Yan's face. After a while, "Go to sleep."
