Paying the Bullies in Kind Chapter 7

Nathan Tao was extremely happy to be able to help Liam Zhao. Although he was poor, he was an ambitious person. He would not refuse help from others, but he would definitely find ways to do something in return, which he did at home. When you have free time, you can help your only friend with some work. What's the point?

So Nathan Tao quickly washed up and dressed, and met Liam Zhao at the bus stop. Although they went home together almost every day, every time he saw Liam Zhao, Nathan Tao thought he was very handsome. He stood out from the crowd but was unassuming. He was so handsome. It was rare for a boy of eighteen or nineteen to have such a temperament, so Nathan Tao would think of Caleb Tao. Caleb Tao was definitely not like this. Caleb Tao had been a naughty boy since he was a child, going to houses and uncovering tiles and trees to dig out birds.

The weather was still very hot. Nathan Tao grabbed Liam Zhao's clothes and pulled him into the shadows. He looked up at the bright blue sky and said, "It's so hot today. I don't know when it will cool down."

"September will be much better."

"When do you start school?"

"Next Monday, I want to help you find a house before I start school. Your place is really not suitable for staying for a long time. If that man keeps harassing you, you won't be able to get rid of him."

Nathan Tao felt worried when this matter was mentioned. He thought about it and finally told Liam Zhao: "Actually, I don't plan to stay here for a long time. After I find my brother and meet him, I will leave."

Liam Zhao glanced at Nathan Tao and said, "Where are you going?"

"I can go anywhere, maybe near my hometown. There's too much pressure here and it's not suitable for me."

"So you came here just to find your brother?" Liam Zhao asked again.

"That's right. We have been separated for too long. I really want to know how he is now. I feel relieved when I see him."

When he said this, Nathan Tao looked out the window, and his shallow reflection was reflected in the glass. He was melancholy, because he didn't know when he would see Caleb Tao, let alone what he would say after seeing him. , he knew that Caleb Tao would definitely blame him for sending him back, but that was the best ending. Nathan Tao believed that one day Caleb Tao would understand his decision at that time.

"If you're just staying here temporarily, why not stay at my place."

Liam Zhao's words suddenly interrupted Nathan Tao's thoughts. Nathan Tao was a little unable to react and said, "What?"

"The house I have to clean now is very close to the school and your barbecue restaurant. My relatives used to live in it, but now they have moved out and it is vacant. I plan to go there and stay there occasionally on weekends."

This sentence came at the right time. Nathan Tao was stunned for a long time, and then said with gratitude and apology: "No, no, no, how can I trouble you? He can't do anything to me. If it doesn't work, I can just call the police."

"Although school is about to start, it will definitely take some time to find out about your brother."

"Thank you so much, but I really don't need it." Nathan Tao didn't know what to say to express his gratitude to Liam Zhao. He was even a little at a loss. He would be anxious when others were too nice to him. He said, "It doesn't really matter." "After you helped me out last time, Lucas Zhang didn't harass me for a long time. He will definitely not come again, really."

Liam Zhao didn't force it and said, "Okay, then tell me if you need anything."

Nathan Tao was so moved that he almost drowned himself in a river. He kept saying in his heart that he was really lucky. To meet a good person like Liam Zhao, he must work hard!

The house is located in the middle of a new community, on the 22nd floor. The master bedroom and living room all face south, and the lighting is quite good. When Nathan Tao walked in, he felt that the place was clean and bright. Where did it need to be cleaned?

Liam Zhao turned on the air conditioner and said, "They probably cleaned it up when they left. Although it's not that dirty, it still needs to be cleaned again. Thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard. I thought it would be a mess. It's so clean."

Nathan Tao volunteered to go into the bathroom and heard Liam Zhao's voice coming from outside: "The shower in the public bathroom is broken, but the sink and toilet are usable. You can use all the towels and mops. I'll make the bed first." "

Nathan Tao casually took a clean towel, wet it and went to the master bedroom: "Don't worry, I'll wipe the bed frame and bedside first."

He worked meticulously, and without any explanation he knelt down on the bedside and wiped it. While wiping it, he said, "This house is really nice, and the location is good. You don't have to worry about getting married in the future. It would be perfect as a wedding room."

Every inch of land near the sea is precious. In Nathan Tao's opinion, having this house means having a life security and a home. He wiped the head of the bed diligently, and then looked at Liam Zhao who was standing still. Said: "I'll change the towel and wipe it again."

When it came to work, Nathan Tao was completely different from his usual helpless appearance. He ran around, cleaning every corner of the house, and gave Liam Zhao a few lessons. A little life tip: "The sheets should be slightly longer and cover the corners so that they are less likely to be bumped. Don't use too big a chopping board in the kitchen. Buy a small one that is easy to clean and looks tidy."

Liam Zhao responded, but Nathan Tao felt that he probably didn't listen. As he was working hard to mop the floor, Liam Zhao suddenly said out of the blue: "I won't get married."

"Huh?" Nathan Tao wiped the sweat from his forehead and then remembered what he casually said about the wedding room an hour ago.

"I am a non-marriage person."

Nathan Tao stopped, opened his mouth, and then said, "Ah, that's it."

"It's not bad to be alone, isn't it? You are not alone."

Mentioning this topic inevitably reminded Nathan Tao of his own S3xual orientation. He really couldn't respond. He responded vaguely and continued mopping the floor, saying: "As long as you are happy, you don't have to get married. You are so good and you can do anything." good."

Liam Zhao did not respond to the question. He moved the flowers from the balcony to the living room, and then used a vacuum cleaner to suck up the dust on the windowsill. The noisy sound suddenly filled the room, and Nathan Tao was shocked to the point of having a headache. After finally finishing, Liam Zhao Depth of Jing closed the cord of the vacuum cleaner and said: "If you want to stay in Linhai, don't be a waiter and work as a part-time worker. A two-bedroom house costs at least 600 yuan for three hours. If you make good customers, you can You can take care of yourself."

Nathan Tao was a little surprised: "How much money do you make?"

"Yes, you are not too old. I think you should learn as much as possible, such as smartphones and computers. Even if you want to go home and do something else in the future, it will be easier."

Regarding the future, Nathan Tao didn't think deeply about it. After all, he only had a primary school education and could only do the most basic work. But a big city is a big city after all. Three hours and six hundred dollars, what is the concept? Nathan Tao didn't even dare to calculate.

Liam Zhao was very serious. He thought about it and said something very sincere: "Actually, I didn't expect to make friends with you. You are a very kind person, so I just said some suggestions directly. I hope you don't mind." "

"Why do you mind? Classmate Zhao, you think too much." Nathan Tao felt that this child was really too thoughtful, and it was too late for him to be grateful!

"I am very willing to try other jobs, but I don't know what I can do. When you said it today, I really feel enlightened. I will consider it."

Liam Zhao nodded and said "Yeah".

After finishing the work, Liam Zhao wanted to take Nathan Tao out to eat, but Nathan Tao refused, saying it was too expensive. In the end, the two of them had takeout at home. Liam Zhao specially ordered an ice cream. Nathan Tao took a bite and his eyes widened: " tasty!"

"As long as it tastes good."

The ice cream in Nathan Tao's memory was still at the level of white sugar popsicles. He had never eaten this kind of creamy ice cream with a rich and smooth taste. After one bite, he immediately felt that the heat had dissipated all over his body, his fingertips were cool, and he felt relaxed. . He ate happily, and Liam Zhao said, "You can help me clean such a big house for just one meal of ice cream. I make a profit."

Nathan Tao's mouth was filled with cream, and his temples were glistening with sweat because he was so hot from working. He bent his eyes and smiled: "We are friends, we help each other."

Liam Zhao looked at him at first, then suddenly lowered his head and said, "Yeah."

In the evening, Nathan Tao returned to his cabin. The moment he entered the room, he suddenly felt a sense of fragmentation. How relaxing and comfortable it was when I was with Liam Zhao, and how dark and uncomfortable it was when I came back here. This contrast did not come from the environment, but from the people. There was no Lucas Zhang in that house, but Lucas Zhang seemed to be everywhere here.

Nathan Tao sighed deeply.

The shadow of being followed lingered for a long time. In fact, Nathan Tao didn't say it, but he was really scared in his heart. What would he do if Liam Zhao started school? He could fully imagine Lucas Zhang's shameless behavior. The next month's rent can be paid on this house in just over a week. Should he renew it? If not, where should he find a more suitable house?

Lucas Zhang didn't show up for the next few days. Nathan Tao wanted to just endure it like this and leave when Linhai University started and found Caleb Tao, but he didn't expect that Lucas Zhang could be so shameless!

That night, Nathan Tao went home with Liam Zhao as usual. Liam Zhao asked him if he had any tissues to wipe the car seat. The sky was dark and the light from the street lights was dim and weak. Nathan Tao opened his satchel and searched inside, saying, "I brought it with me." A packet of paper, wait."

Then, Nathan Tao touched a paper box. He didn't remember that he had such a thing in his bag. He thought he had accidentally packed a pack of paper from the store, so he took it out, looked at the street lamp, and said, "This is paper." ?"

The small red box was only half the size of a palm. There were two Chinese characters written on it, as well as some curved patterns. Due to the reflection of the plastic film on the outside of the package, Nathan Tao couldn't see clearly what the words were for a long time. Liam Zhao was right next to him. He took it and said, "Let me take a look."

Then, he read out the two words: "Okamoto."

Nathan Tao didn't know what it was, so he repeated: "Okamoto?"

Liam Zhao put down the small box, his face in the backlight was like a marble statue, and he said: "C*nd0ms."
