At the dining table, Lu Yan sat on one side, Yuan Xiaoyang and Lu Lang sat on the other side.

After Yuan Xiaoyang set up the bowls and chopsticks, Lu Lang stretched out his chopsticks and wanted to pick up dumplings. Seeing his movements, Yuan Xiaoyang gently touched Lu Lang's feet under the table and signaled him to wait.

Lu Lang ignored it and stuffed the dumplings into his mouth, and even looked at him provocatively.

Since the beginning of the small Yuan Chengxi, Yuan Xiaoyang taught that he was in order, so what Yuan Xiaoyang must have had must be eaten first before he could use the chopsticks.

Now facing the Lu brothers' ways of getting along, he was a little at a loss. But seeing that Lu Yan moved his chopsticks as if he was not concerned, he started eating silently.

The dumplings made by the Yuan family are very large in size, with thin skin and rich fillings. The meat is as delicious as meat, and the dishes are as delicious as vegetables. The two are harmoniously matched. Yuan Xiaoyang grinds some garlic paste, plus white vinegar, sesame oil and spicy oil as a sauce. The dumplings are more rich in flavor when dipped in the sauce, which is very appetizing. Lu Lang eats them one by one.

"Is it delicious?" Yuan Xiaoyang asked Lu Lang in a low voice.

Lu Lang stuffed another dumpling into his mouth, his cheeks bulging, and he said vaguely: "What do you think?"

"That must be delicious." Yuan Xiaoyang couldn't help but curl up his eyes and smiled with pride.

Lu Yan didn't say anything, just ate quietly.

Yuan Xiaoyang was a little scared of this elder brother. Seeing that he was eating without expression, he wanted to ask him if he was in line with his appetite but didn't know how to speak. He was confused for a moment and decided to ask, but just as he was about to speak, Lu Yan's sharp gaze suddenly fell on him.

"!" Yuan Xiaoyang shrank reflexibly to Lu Lang. Lu Lang had just stuffed a dumpling into his mouth. Seeing Yuan Xiaoyang leaning against him, he intuitively looked up at Lu Yan before he could figure out anything.

No one spoke, but the atmosphere had changed in an instant.

"The dumplings are delicious, thank you." Lu Yan spoke.

Yuan Xiaoyang: "!!!"

Lu Lang: "???"

When Yuan Xiaoyang heard that his dumplings were praised, he was still huddled beside Lu Lang and smiled foolishly: "That's great. My uncle must be very happy to know. I'll bring some next time."

Lu Yan nodded and reached out to grab another dumpling.

In a short time, the atmosphere changed again.

Lu Yan didn't know what he was thinking. Yuan Xiaoyang was silly happy when he saw the dumplings received everyone's affirmation, while Lu Lang looked bad, as if he was unhappy with the interaction between Yuan Xiaoyang and Lu Yan, but he didn't say anything.

Yuan Xiaoyang cooked 60 dumplings, an average of 20 per person. However, Lu Yan stopped chopsticks after eating more than ten pieces, and Yuan Xiaoyang had to go to tutor in the afternoon. The family he tutored would prepare snacks, so he didn't plan to eat too much.

Seeing that Lu Yan stopped eating, Yuan Xiaoyang asked, "Do you want to drink soup? I cooked tomato and egg flower soup."

Lu Yan nodded, Yuan Xiaoyang added a bowl to Lu Yan and handed it over carefully.

Seeing Yuan Xiaoyang's careful appearance, Lu Lang took a bite of the dumplings in the chopsticks, then put the chopsticks, leaned against the chair, looked forward expressionlessly, and stopped eating.

Yuan Xiaoyang looked back at him, at a loss, but also served him a bowl of soup.

In a blink of an eye, the atmosphere changed again.

Yuan Xiaoyang was at a loss in this changing atmosphere. He lowered his head and looked at the beautiful egg flowers in the soup bowl, thinking about whether he had done something wrong.

"You and Lu Lang are in the same class as the first year of high school?" Lu Yan suddenly asked.

Yuan Xiaoyang glanced at Lu Lang. Lu Lang still maintained his position just now, and Tang Lian in front of him did not touch him. He became uneasy, but he still answered obediently: "Different classes, we will only be in the same class starting next semester."

"How do you know each other? Logically speaking, you will only know each other after school is over, right?"

Lu Yan looked indifferent when he asked, but his eyes were always on Yuan Xiaoyang, and he felt an indescribable sense of oppression. However, the encounter with Lu Lang was something that Yuan Xiaoyang talked about. He felt that Lu Lang appeared in his life as a hero, and Lu Lang's image in his eyes has always been like a hero.

Therefore, despite still a little uneasy, Yuan Xiaoyang still wanted Lu Yan to know how good Lu Lang is and replied: "I was blackmailed on the night of returning to school, and it was Lu Lang who saved it..."

"Why are you talking to him about this?" Lu Lang said coldly.

"Continue to talk." Lu Yan said.

"No one will believe you, but in some people's eyes I'm just a waste."

Lu Yan's gaze turned to Lu Lang, and Lu Lang looked ahead and didn't look at anyone.

"When did you start to care about what others think of you? It's so strange." Lu Yan disdained, "I don't understand when you were interested in helping others. I thought you were all focused on fighting and causing trouble. What's that a waste?"

"Lu Yan!"

Yuan Xiaoyang didn't know why things turned out like this. He just wanted to invite Lu Lang to eat dumplings. Seeing Lu Yan also invited Lu Yan to eat at home, he never thought that this would happen.

He was afraid of Lu Yan, and he was afraid that Lu Lang would shake his hair, so he just wanted to carry his schoolbag and run away immediately.

However, he could not leave, at least now, because he could not leave before he could finish his words.

"When I was most afraid of it, it was Lu Lang who saved me."

In the tense atmosphere, Yuan Xiaoyang's slightly trembling voice seemed abrupt. He stared at the table and didn't dare to look up, and said to himself: "Even if he was just for the fight, he saved me, not someone else."

"Stop talking!"

"More than that time!" Yuan Xiaoyang's voice raised, "It was also the time I drowned... I really thought I would die, really, but Lu Lang jumped into the water and fished me up."

"If Lu Lang had no heart to help others, I would be dead now." Yuan Xiaoyang's voice lowered again, and he continued to say timidly and insisted, "He is not a... trash, because my existence can prove how high his value as a person is."

"At least he is a real hero in my heart, and no matter what others say, it will not change."

Yuan Xiaoyang said the last sentence, looked up at Lu Yan and looked at Lu Yan with all his eyes. Lu Yan had no expression on his face, as if he was thinking about his words.

After a moment, Lu Yan whispered: "You treat him as a hero, but what did he treat himself as?"

With a "bang", Lu Lang pushed away the chair and stood up and left.

Yuan Xiaoyang looked at him helplessly, then looked at Lu Yan, but saw that Lu Yan was still expressionless, as if he had guessed the ending. Yuan Xiaoyang hesitated for a moment and chased Lu Lang.

Lu Lang walked very quickly, and Yuan Xiaoyang's legs were short and could not keep up. Lu Lang climbed the stairs and walked quickly towards his room. Even though Yuan Xiaoyang had already run, he was still one step slower, and the door was swung heavily in front of him.

With the heavy sound of slamming the door, Yuan Xiaoyang also shook, and his eyes revealed helplessness and fear.

"Lu Lang..." Yuan Xiaoyang patted the door gently, "I'm sorry..."

In fact, he didn't know what he did wrong, but everything he experienced since childhood made him feel that he did wrong when others were angry.

"I'm sorry, don't be angry...I won't mess with you in the future...you're angry."

The door was still closed, and Yuan Xiaoyang dared not open it.

After a moment, the door opened, but Lu Lang opened it not to let him in, but to throw his schoolbag out.

"Nothing later."
