Chapter Index

    No permanence

    Shen Luo once raised a very fat cat. Because it ate and was lazy all day long, it would never sit down if it could lie down, and never stand if it could sit. Even if it was a trivial matter, as long as it took a long time, it would point its tail at you mercilessly, so Shen Luo gave him the name “Wu Heng”.

    When leaving his grandfather’s house, it bit Shen Luo’s pants and refused to let go. Shen Yixiang wanted to take it away, but its teeth were tightened and it refused to let go. Shen Yixiang finally had to let Shen Luo take Wu Heng away with him.

    Wu Heng could live a good life in the first few days, but there were people coming in and out of the house all day long, and he had to keep an eye on the cat that always liked to mess around. He would always stumble a few times, and then he would shut it to the balcony with a few complaints.Every time, he could only be released when Shen Luo came back. When Shen Meng saw it, he turned away with no shame.

    Shen Luo has been staying with Wuheng since he came back. When he was about to eat, Shen Luo carried him out, but Shen Meng stopped him.

    “Put that cat on the balcony. Otherwise, if you just lie down like this at home, what if someone steps on it and falls?”

    Shen Luo looked at the cute Wuheng, whose claws hooked Shen Luo’s school uniform, as if to express strong dissatisfaction.

    “But the balcony is too hot and it won’t be able to bear it.”

    Shen Luo knew that no one in this family welcomed Wu Heng, or even welcomed him very much. The only thing he had learned in these days was to look at Shen Meng’s face. No one even cared about Wu Heng’s leg being pinched.

    Shen Meng stopped what he was doing and pursed his lips slightly. Shen Luo had no choice but to put it on the balcony. Sitting at the dining table, Shen Luo was thinking about moving the cat climbing frame to the balcony. Wu Heng liked to sleep on it the most, and Shen Luo wanted to make it comfortable.The shelf was very high and the distance from the window would not hinder the use of the window. After doing this, I hurried to school.

    In the evening, Shen Luo held the newly bought cat strip in her hands. As soon as she entered the community, she met a “sister” on the same floor. She was a very beautiful woman.

    Shen Luo looked at his sister in her early thirties who was wearing light sportswear and a headband on her forehead. Her short, sleek hair was soaked with sweat. She must have just finished running.

    Every time when Shen Luo was out of school, she would sneak a big golden retriever. It was obviously golden but named “Hui Hui”. Hui Hui’s tail would shake like a propeller when it saw Shen Luo. Shen Luo would greet it enthusiastically.

    “Hui Hui, you are more clingy today than yesterday.” Shen Luo buried his hand in its blond hair, and the warm touch reminded him of Wu Heng.

    “It acts like this every time I see you. It can’t pull you. It seems it likes you very much.”

    “Sister Fang, I think Huihui and that cat at home are really two extremes. Huihui comes out every day, but Wuheng wants to stay in bed every day without moving a step.”

    “I told you not to call me sister. I’m almost two rounds older than you. Call me aunt. If you have time later, you can bring Wu Heng out and let them infect each other. Maybe it will be fine.”

    “Okay, then I’ll go back first. See you soon, Sister Fang.”

    After saying that, he left. The little episode just now wiped away Shen Luo’s fatigue from the day, and he was so nervous that he wanted to go back and feed the cat strips in his hand to Wu Heng.

    There were so many people on the road today. Shen Luo had to slow down his pace and his heart tightened silently. The exclamations of the people next to him scared him to a stop. Following the direction they were pointing, Shen Luo saw something in the air falling quickly, and then slammed to the ground., the huge impact forced Shen Luo to cover his eyes with his arms. Sensing the strange looks from the people around him, he secretly glanced over. Red water was constantly flowing out of the bloody mass. A bold man came closer and waved his hand indifferently after seeing it clearly.

    “It’s just a cat that fell off.”

    Hearing that a cat fell, Shen Luo immediately opened his eyes wide and walked over there. No matter how others tried to pull him, it was useless until he saw the familiar bell pressed under the bloody cat. He lost all strength and knelt straight down. The surprise just now is still on his fingertips.Turning white, Shen Luo tremblingly picked up the flattened bell and held it in the palm of his hand. The huge emotional gap made him unable to say a word. Tears had already covered his face. The cat strip in Shen Luo’s hand rolled to his feet. He thought Wu Heng would leave, but he never expected to respond in this way.

    He knelt for a long time, but no one came forward, and no one came down from upstairs. His heart felt like it was being cut open with scissors and then torn into pieces. Shen Luo opened his backpack and put the few books inside on the mezzanine. It was a scene that made others sick and scared. Shen Luo put Wuheng in bit by bit with his own hands. After carrying his schoolbag, he walked out of the community regardless of everyone’s pointing.

    Until almost nine o’clock, no one sent him a message on Shen Luo’s mobile phone, even asking where have you been?When he was about to press down his phone, a text message popped up, the content of which was blunt concern.

    “You haven’t come back?”

    It was from Su Ji. Shen Luo told him that he would not go back tonight. Su Ji looked at the message and wanted to ask him why, but there was only one good word in the message.

    Shen Luo, who had been sitting on the roadside for a long time, did not choose to take a taxi, but carried Wu Heng back to his grandmother’s house.It took a long time to get there by car, and it was even a long journey for him with two legs. Shen Luo didn’t tell anyone, but after much deliberation, he still dialed a phone number, but no one answered the phone after ringing for a long time.

    Shen Luo looked at the schoolbag soaked in red behind him. The original color could no longer be seen. He said to it, “Do you also want me to take you home?”

    “…”

    “Then I’ll take you home, and we’ll go home together.”
