Ch20 - I really don’t like you

On the New Year’s Eve, the number of family members visiting the prison was the largest.

The food, clothing and supplies brought in from home were all distributed by the cell heads in the various rooms. Boss Chen You took the largest share and a little bit of the rest could be taken away by themselves.

This was the most common but not the cruelest phenomenon in the world of iron net.

It was already good to have a little left. There were some that did not get anything or even got hurt by their own struggles.

Like every year in the past, Chen You, Dong-zi and lao-Yu had no family members to visit.

Chen You was a bystander who had nothing to do with himself. He seemed to be acting, but in fact he didn’t get into the act at all. As for Dong-zi and lao-Yu, they had long been indifferent and numb.

Unexpectedly, He Siyang had a visitor.

He went out empty-handed and came back with big and small bags.

As the boss’s person, nobody dared to rob his stuff, there was only curiosity.

Chen You went over and asked, "Who came to see you?"

He Siyang said, "My teacher."

Chen You didn’t ask again. He also didn’t start to turn over the bags. It was impolite.

Unless He Siyang let him rummage through them.

While thinking this, all the bags were placed in his arms, followed by He Siyang’s voice, "For you."

Chen You looked dumbstruck.

He Siyang said, "Don’t you dislike that the bed is dirty? There are sheets and quilt covers here."

He looked at the man who seemed very nervous and smiled.

Chen You’s throat and hair were tight, feeling insecure. Bro, you look at me like this, it feels like you’ve stepped on the stuffing I exposed.

With a very fast skill, He Siyang changed the new sheets, quilts and pillowcases for Chen You in the envy of everyone’s eyes.

"There are still a few sets, it’s convenient to change when they are wet."

Chen You, "..."

"Why don’t you just buy a few packs of adult diapers for me to wrap?"

He Siyang raised his head, "Do you want it?"

Chen You quickly shook his head and said no. This child remembered every word he said and took them seriously, he could not find another person like him.

"There are eggs and instant noodles here, but," He Siyang continued, "There is not much braised beef. There are also chicken stewed mushrooms and pickled vegetables, I don’t know if you like it or not?"

I like it! Chen You started to turn over the bag. I like everything, I’m not picky.

He Siyang saw him happy and smiled dotingly.

When Dong-zi and lao-Yu saw this scene, they couldn’t help but sigh with emotion. Like this, there’s someone who cared for boss and they could feel reassured when they went out.

The prisoners took care of hygiene works and their own hygiene, waiting for the benefits once a year.

A little while later, the instructor came and handed out melon seeds, peanuts and cigarettes, and told them not to turn off the lights for the next two nights.

This had been the case year after year and nothing had changed, but it still received the enthusiastic cheers of the prisoners.

As soon as the instructors left, the things were quickly divided.

There were two packs of cigarettes, one stick for one person, and the rest went to Chen You, and he also kept the lighter.

The big guys looked surprised when they saw the cigarettes. They usually smoked the 3-yuan LuShan, but it turned out to be 14-yuan LiQun today.

Superintendent Wang and the warden were exceptionally kind this year and received the New Year’s blessings from the prisoners.

Chen You was a good child and not very good at smoking. He was fooled by relatives to try it in high school. His throat hurt after choking and he didn’t like the taste.

Everyone was smoking and puffing. He put the cigarette to his mouth and bowed to press the lighter.

As soon as the cigarette was lit, Chen You had not taken a sip yet before a hand had reached over and took the cigarette away.

The youth held the cigarette between his beautiful fingers, smoke puffing out of his mouth and nose, the action quite natural.

Chen You asked strangely, "When did you learn to smoke?" He remembered the information did not write that the target had a smoking experience.

He Siyang puffed smoke on his face and said with a smile, "Just now."

As a same-age peer, Chen You’s heart received a huge blow. Hehe, I really don’t like you.

He’d better cracked melon seeds. He was good at that.

The melon seeds were seasoned with five flavors. Chen You grabbed a handful and cracked them while sitting cross-legged at the head of the bed, and soon was immersed in the world surrounded by ka-ka noises.

As everyone’s mood was high from smoking, Dong-zi took the lead in heckling, "The boss can sing very well, come and sing us a song."

The others followed and shouted, "Sing a song! Sing a song!"

"Sure." Chen You deftly spat out the melon seed’s shell. "Then I’ll sing my favorite song 'Nunchucks'."

"The feeling of bitter sand blowing painfully against the face..."
*T/N: Chen You sang Seaman by Zheng Zhihua instead of Nunchucks by Jay Chou.

The system that happened to be out of touch for some time and wanted to listen for a while, "..."

Chen You changed his mind when he opened his mouth to make the first sound. He had to sing something inspirational so that he could enter the hearts of these people, including He Siyang.

Slowly, everyone quieted down. There was only Chen You’s loud voice in the room, singing 'Dry your tears, don’t be afraid, at least we still have our dreams'.

He Siyang smoked with half-squinted eyes and looked at the man through that narrow gap. Who in the end are you...

It was a big dinner in the evening. The canteen filled dozens of large pots with braised pork. How big was the pot, that is, it was a few sizes bigger than what was given for pigs to eat.

The big pot barrels were arranged in two rows, with meat and vegetables, plus bone soup and oranges. The prisoners queued up to get their food, eyes flashing with excitement and gulping non-stop.

Chen You sat at the front of the table engrossed in gnawing at the big bones, piling up a hill in a short time. He was still not satisfied and looked up to find three men looking at him. "Why are you all not eating ah?"

Dong-zi and lao-Yu reacted and smacked their lips. Weird, since when did the boss like to eat the bones? A dog could not beat him in speed.

Moreover, they remembered, didn’t the boss hate bones with no meat and all were directly thrown to them?

Dong-zi and lao-Yu shook their heads and sighed. It seemed that the boss still had a craving and was not behaving like himself.

He Siyang just handed the soup to Chen You, without any change in his expression. Even if Chen You suddenly turned into a pug, it was reckoned that he still would not be surprised.

Chen You drank the soup and was a little sleepy after eating his fill. He wanted to wash his face and soak his feet and then went to bed. He had no hope for those programs.

He Siyang held out an orange for him.

Chen You rejected, "This orange is too ugly, I won’t eat."

He Siyang peeled the orange, "Ugly is sweeter."

Chen You did not believe. After he ate a slice, he gave the youth a thumbs-up and praised him brightly, you’re awesome.

He Siyang pursed his lips and the corners of his mouth bent.

He took the leftovers of the man’s food and bowed his head to eat.

Chen You frowned. "Don’t eat this, it’s cold and not good for your stomach. You eat from your own rice bowl."

He Siyang’s voice was blurry, "This one is delicious."

Chen You looked at the youth, eat slowly, don’t choke, my saliva really doesn’t have amazing effect, it doesn’t even have disinfecting effect.

He Siyang emptied Chen You’s rice bowl, "Not finishing the orange?"

Chen You said he would not eat any more. He Siyang continued to eat what he could not finish, as if whatever he touched and ate, it would be delicious.

Dong-zi glanced at lao-Yu and lao-Yu glanced back at him. The two men went to look at their boss, the expression on their faces was indescribable.

Chen You turned his head, don’t look at me, I don’t f*cking know what’s going on.

After all the prisoners had dinner, they all lined up to go to the drill ground to welcome the New Year.

Chen You ate too much and his stomach was uncomfortable. He Siyang said in his ear, "I have a New year’s present for you. Let’s slip away later."

Chen You said in his heart, I don’t really want it, really, "What present?"

He Siyang rubbed the man’s frozen red ears, he only smiled and did not say anything.

Tonight’s moonlight was good, the temperature was relatively low and the cold wind was blowing. There were so many people gathered on the drill ground, breathing white mist and rubbing their hands and face.

Everyone taking part in the show began to prepare at the back and took turns to perform on stage.

Applause, laughter and cheers rang out.

Finally, Chen You came out of the crowd. When he moved, the cell heads also moved. They walked to the stage with him, stood in the rehearsal order and began the chorus.

Everyone was tearing at their throats, shouting till red in the face, singing "Tomorrow will be better" with surging passion.

Chu Tian was beside Chen You. It was a distance that they would be touching if he simply lifted his hand. During that time, his eyes swept over the other party many times, feeling like he was the biggest idiot in the world.

So far, everything went smoothly on the New Year’s Eve.

When the New Year’s bell had just rung, two police officers in front of the warden’s office were knocked unconscious. There were traces of desks and filing cabinets being turned over.

The warden could not clear everything for the time being and was not sure if any confidential document was lost.

According to several armed police officers present, the other party’s back was injured during the confrontation.

Superintendent Wang requested a thorough investigation of the matter that very night. More than 400 prisoners were gathered together and had to strip off their clothes for inspection.

Whoever had an injury on his back was the suspect of this incident.

"Report, Room 15 is short of two people!"

"Who are missing?"

"It’s 1579 and 1580!"

The warden’s eyelids jumped, oh no.

Superintendent Wang didn’t show any expression. He waved his hand and let his men form a team to find them. He then gave orders to carry out the inspection immediately.

A team with police dogs combed the D area. It was impossible for two big living men to escape without leaving any traces, unless they disappeared out of thin air.

The warden wiped his sweat every once in a while, Xiao Fei, you must not cause me any trouble.

Dong-zi and lao-Yu in the crowd were nervous. They did not know what was the current situation or where the boss and He Siyang went to play.

Over at Room 16, Chu Tian stood idly, but his eyes swept around from time to time, hard to detect.

When two-thirds of the inspection was carried out, Chen You and He Siyang were brought back by the team.

The warden sprang to his feet and later realized that he had lost his composure. He sat back as if nothing had happened and his fingers knocked on his leg unconsciously.

Xiao Fei, if this has anything to do with you, don’t expect to get out of here in the next ten years.

Superintendent Wang didn’t ask anything. He asked someone to examine them first.

Chen You was very cooperative and took off his shirt in front of hundreds of pairs of eyes without too many pauses.

Under the strong headlight illumination, his body had strong muscles and full of formidable power. It could be seen with the naked eye that there was no injury on his back.

Only that there were too many ambiguous marks, especially on the chest and back, unbearable to watch.

As to what extent ne, let’s put it this way, people with trypophobia* will go crazy on the spot.
*an aversion to the sight of irregular patterns or clusters of small holes or bumps.

The crowd gasped in shock and looked at the tall and handsome boy in unison.

They never expected, his teeth were so good.

So, all along, they had been deceived? Fei-gē was the one lying down? Of course, kneeling on your stomach was also fine, whatever makes you happy.

There has to be a mistake, who is Fei-gē ah, he is the boss of Area D, stamping his feet can make them shake for several days, he cannot be at the mercy of a child.

Dong-zi and lao-Yu were too far apart to see clearly, or they would have cried out in fright.

Superintendent Wang had a tacit understanding with the warden for the first time. At the same time he coughed, breaking the strange and silent atmosphere.
                     
Chen You finished the inspection and was not the suspect, then it was He Siyang’s turn.
