Yuan Meng's vigilance instantly rose. He took a half step forward and stretched out his hand to block the approach of Luo Lingsheng, "Wait."
The appearance of the other party is not particularly outstanding, but a pair of peach blossom eyes that are as bright as stars are slightly raised, which is particularly charming.
Different from the costumes of other guests who come to the nightclub, the simple dress highlights his tall and straight figure, making him lazy and casual.
Perhaps it was a simple greeting that caused Yuan Meng to block him. The person who came to stoop down and take a seat slowed down. His slanted gaze was like a hook with a heart, and the word 'dangerous' was instantly filled with it.
"Ling Sheng, are your bodyguards being overly vigilant?"
The question mixed with a smile was actually a naked warning of displeasure to Yuan Meng.
Yuan Meng, who had met countless people by Luo Lingsheng's side, immediately noticed the sudden change in the aura, and was secretly shocked - this person and the owner's aura had a match!
However, Luo Lingsheng's air-conditioning field was released outside, while this person's air-conditioning field was hidden inside.
"..."
Yuan Meng subconsciously shifted his gaze to his boss.
Luo Lingsheng glanced back at him and said calmly, "It's okay, it's indeed an old friend."
When the visitor heard this, he showed a satisfied smile. He slightly turned his hand away from Yuan Meng's restraining hand, and calmly sat diagonally opposite Luo Lingsheng.
His eyes lingered on Luo Lingsheng's legs, but his mouth seemed to introduce Yuan Meng, "My surname is Yu, and I have a single name, and I am a classmate of your family master since childhood..."
Yu Shuo paused, then asked Luo Lingsheng, "Is it okay to introduce myself like this?"
Although Yuan Meng was a veteran, he had been in close contact with Luo Lingsheng and Qin Jian in the past few years, and he also had a certain understanding of the wealthy conglomerates in China.
Hearing the surname, a guess suddenly appeared in his heart.
—There is the Luo family in the north and the Yu family in the south.
Both clans are rich and powerful families with a foundation of hundreds of years. One north and one south affect the division of the two regions and some economic trends.
Luo Lingsheng is now in charge of the family, while Yu Ruyin is in charge of the Yu family.
Luo Lingsheng's social circle from childhood to adulthood is inseparable from these people in the wealthy family. Since this Yu Shuo can be called an 'old classmate' with Luo Lingsheng, is it possible that he is one of the young masters in the Yu family
Luo Lingsheng didn't know what his bodyguard was thinking. He raised his glass and didn't deny it, "When did you return to China? Why didn't you tell me?"
Yu Shuo invited the waiter, brought himself a glass of strong whiskey, and signaled with a smile, "You are the head of the Luo family now, how can your identity be better than when you were in school? I asked you to make an appointment half a year in advance?"
Luo Lingsheng's thin lips pursed his starting point, "I haven't seen each other for four years. If you want to meet me, you can come directly."
"Yeah, I haven't seen each other for four years." Yu Shuo touched his glass with emotion, his eyes fell on his legs again, and he frowned slightly, "Is that so?"
"uncertain."
For the first time, Luo Lingsheng calmly accepted the question about his leg from an outsider, "If it doesn't work out, it will be like this for the rest of my life."
However, as long as Shi Yunnan doesn't mind, he can slowly accept his imperfect self.
Yu Shuo's eyes flashed for a while, he deliberately narrowed the distance with Luo Lingsheng, and took the initiative to raise his glass again, "The Yu family's troubles in the past three or four years are better than your Luo family's. Nothing less than."
"I was 'thrown' by my dad and my brother to be backed up abroad, and I really can't take care of myself..."
Once you get busy, you really don't care about the so-called interpersonal communication.
Luo Lingsheng heard the explanation in his words and replied, "I heard."
Yu Shuo's grandfather, Grandpa Yu, had a very chaotic style during his lifetime. After his death, he left behind a big mess. The whole family's struggle for power was equally troubled.
Yu Shuo's father, Yu Ruyin, had asked Luo Lingsheng for help, but Luo Lingsheng had not been able to fully secure his position as the head of the family, so he refused.
There are some things that affect the whole body, Luo Lingsheng deliberately avoids and does not want to be involved in it.
Luo Lingsheng's refusal indirectly affected the development of some events, and the relationship between him and Yu Shuo also fluctuated.
But everyone is an adult. After three or four years of precipitation, the unpleasantness of the past will naturally dissipate.
Luo Lingsheng asked, "How long will you be back in China this time?"
"I don't plan to leave, but I have to go back to the south the day after tomorrow." Yu Shuo replied.
Perhaps the appearance and aura of the two of them are too outstanding, and the clothes on their bodies are low-key but extravagant. They were chatting when two scantily clad young women approached and wanted to strike up a conversation.
But before Luo Lingsheng could speak, Yuan Meng, who was standing at the back, arrived in time, and sent the two young and beautiful women away with a straight face.
Seeing this scene, Yu Shuo couldn't help laughing, "I said Luo Lingsheng, who came to the nightclub with a bodyguard like you? How many good opportunities have you missed to 'spend the night' with others?"
Luo Lingsheng glanced at him and asked back, "You think I'm going to mess around outside?"
Before the leg injury, he was clean enough to keep himself clean. Now, after the leg injury is inconvenient, he will not rely on his identity to fool around.
Yu Shuo's joke, he and Yuan Meng would be fine if they heard it. If Shi Yunan heard it, they would be as sour and jealous as the last time.
"I haven't seen you for four years, you won't be single, will you? Haven't looked for it?"
Yu Shuo stared at his former friend as if looking at the treasure, with a hint of complexity in disbelief, "Ling Sheng, you won't still like that..."
"I've already got the license to get married." Luo Lingsheng interrupted Yu Shuo and threw the facts before his eyes.
"..."
Yu Shuo really showed an uncontrollable shocked expression.
He paused for a few seconds before approaching Luo Lingsheng's shoulder as usual, "Get the certificate? With whom? You didn't always like it..."
Suddenly, there was a fluttering sound on the right side, "It's me who got the certificate with him, do you have any questions?"
The two people sitting on the deck turned their attention to the owner of the voice.
Seeing Shi Yunnan, Luo Lingsheng unconsciously released a smile, "It's over with Yuan Rui and the others?"
"I left him to Fu Ziyu to take care of him."
Shi Yunnan said, staring at Yu Shuo's hand that was hooking Luo Lingsheng's shoulder for a moment, as if it could burn a hole in the back of the opponent's hand.
Who is this person
How could Luo Lingsheng let the other party get so close
When he had just approached, he could vaguely hear the two of them saying something like 'You always liked it a lot' or something. Could it be that they were discussing the object of Bai Yueguang before Luo Lingsheng
If he had known, he should have waited a second or two longer before interrupting, to see what words still came out of the stranger's mouth.
Yu Shuo naturally sensed Shi Yunnan's 'unhappy' possessiveness, and he put his hand down in a hurry, "My name is Yu Shuo, an old friend of Luo Lingsheng, hello..."
Yu Shuo paused, then stood up to say hello, "Second Master Shi?"
Shi Yunnan asked back, "You know me?"
"I'm fortunate enough to meet each other once, but it's normal that you don't have an impression of me."
Yu Shuo glanced at Luo Lingsheng briefly, and lowered his eyelids while shaking a little bit of understanding, "Lingsheng, we have known each other for nearly 20 years, so don't you let me know if you have a partner? You really have enough. matter."
This last half sentence obviously aggravated the bite.
Luo Lingsheng pretended not to hear his deep meaning, and only replied, "We haven't had the wedding yet. If you are willing to come, you will be indispensable for future invitations."
The initial relationship between him and Shi Yunnan was only based on the agreement. Later, the news of the 'acceptance of the certificate' was released through Zhao's business exchange meeting, so the wedding and wedding banquet were delayed even more.
Last month, after the two broke their hearts together, Luo Lingsheng had not thought about holding a wedding.
One is that he is afraid that the time will not come, and the other is that he himself has some extravagant hopes—
Luo Lingsheng hopes that one day he can still walk with his legs. At that time, he can not only make up for Shi Yunnan's marriage proposal, but also walk hand in hand with his lover through the wedding and walk for the rest of his life.
Shi Yunnan's attention didn't focus on Luo Lingsheng's 'wedding', but on Yu Shuo's 'nearly twenty years relationship', "Have you known each other for so long?"
"From elementary school to college to graduation."
Yu Shuo smiled and slowly dropped the hook, "Speaking of which, there should be nothing I don't know about Ling Sheng's experience from childhood to adulthood."
"For example, he hates the mixed smell of alcohol and tobacco and loud speakers in nightclubs."
Someone who can make Luo Lingsheng willing to sit here and wait must have a lot of weight in his heart.
Shi Yunnan's eyes froze, and he sat down next to his lover calmly.
He grabbed the man's wrist on a whim, took a sip from the wine glass in the other's hand, and muttered, "Don't you like to come in and sit here?"
Luo Lingsheng graciously followed his intention and said, "I'll pick you up early."
Yu Shuo saw the tacit and intimate movements of the two, and asked with great interest, "How long have you two known each other? Two years? Three years? Or four years?"
"Less than half a year."
This was answered by Luo Lingsheng.
Shi Yunnan listened to it, and the smell of wine that had just entered his throat suddenly became bitter.
Obviously it was a normal answer, but when he was surprised by the surprise on Yu Shuo's face, there was always a trace of inexplicable discomfort.
Yu Shuo raised his eyebrows, raised his glass silently and gestured towards Luo Lingsheng.
Luo Lingsheng understood the ridicule that his friend couldn't hide, but he could only pretend to understand. In front of Shi Yunnan, he didn't want to reveal his secrets for the time being.
Shi Yunnan was keenly aware of the tacit communication between the two, and said aloud to regain his sense of existence, "Mr. Yu, since the two of you have known each other for so long, why have I never heard him mention you?"
"We haven't seen each other for almost four years, and it's normal for him not to mention me."
Yu Shuo hid his urge to talk, and tried to fish again, "A name that can be repeatedly mentioned by Lingsheng even if we don't meet each other, I see, it used to be..."
— bang.
In the next second, Luo Lingsheng put the wine glass in his hand firmly on the glass wine table, and the crisp knocking sound knocked off Yu Shuo's unspoken answer in time.
Yu Shuo met Luo Lingsheng's wink, and suddenly changed his words in time, "...I don't think it was there before. It should be Second Young Master Shi in the future."
Dare friends just coax people into their hands? Haven't confessed to a long-term crush
Got it.
Then he had to keep this secret until he didn't speak out, so as not to spoil the little interest of the couple in the future.
Shi Yunnan condensed for a few seconds, and his emotions suddenly became a little uncomfortable.
It would be fine if he lied to other people, but in front of him, Yu Shuo's little trick to change his mouth was not enough at all.
This name, which had not been revealed before, should be the Bai Yueguang that Luo Lingsheng was thinking of at the beginning, right
"It's getting late, Yu Shuo, let's meet again at another date and time."
Luo Lingsheng said, going to pull Shi Yunan's wrist, intending to take his lover home together.
As a result, in the next second, Fu Ziyu walked down with Yuan Rui who was already drunk.
Shi Yunnan caught a glimpse of the two friends, and quickly got up and approached as if avoiding something, "Ziyu, don't carry Yuan Rui like this, he is drunk, be careful if you have an upset stomach and spit you all over, it's your turn to cry. already."
"Fuck!" Fu Ziyu, who is obsessed with cleanliness, heard such words, and shouted quickly, "Come and help this, this guy doesn't look tall, and he is dead on his shoulders."
Luo Lingsheng heard Shi Yunnan's instinctive concern, and then saw the three people pulling together, and rubbed his fingers heavily, "Yuan Meng, let's go."
"Yes, Patriarch."
Luo Lingsheng simply gestured to Yu Shuo and walked towards Shi Yunnan in a wheelchair.
Fu Ziyu, who had readjusted his posture of helping people, saw his figure, and said to Shi Yunnan very self-consciously, "You guys go first, just leave this cheap son of Yuan Rui to me."
Shi Yunnan met Luo Lingsheng's gaze in silence, and responded indistinctly, "Well."
Yu Shuo stared at Luo Lingsheng's retreating back, kept silent, then poured the half bottle of spirits in front of him into his stomach, and at the end, he let out an indiscernible low laugh.
…
The two returned to Luo's house with their own concerns.
As soon as Shi Yunnan entered the door, he hurried back to his room on the second floor with the excuse of 'taking a shower'.
Seeing this, Luo Lingsheng also controlled the wheelchair and returned to his room.
The little goldfish was sitting on the small bench in the living room drinking milk. There was a tablet on the coffee table in front of him, and a short animation in a foreign language was playing on it.
It was the simple forty minutes of joy he could have every Friday night.
But this time, the little goldfish lost the mood to watch the animation.
He pressed the pause button and rushed to the housekeeper Qin Bo's room holding his milk bottle, "Grandpa Qin!"
Uncle Qin, who was registering the daily expenses of Luo's house, looked up at him, "Why don't you watch cartoons? Isn't there ten minutes left?"
The little goldfish shook his head and approached the latter with a bad look, "Uncle and uncle seem to have quarreled."
The housekeeper took off his reading glasses, "Who said that?"
"They just came back, one took the elevator, the other took the stairs, and they sat in the living room watching TV without noticing me the whole time." The little goldfish said eloquently.
After he finished speaking, he did not forget to swallow the last mouthful of sweet milk.
The housekeeper understood this, but he didn't want the little goldfish to think about the adults at such a young age, "The owner and the others are adults, they will solve the problem by themselves, you have to go to a private lesson tomorrow, don't worry about these things."
"Do you still want to watch cartoons? If you don't, Grandpa Qin will ask the nanny to take you to take a bath and sleep."
"Okay, I get it now."
The little goldfish is still hiding a little worry, but wants to be an obedient and good baby, "Don't watch, Grandpa Qin, I'm going to take a bath and sleep."
"good."
Qin Bo picked him up and went to the next room to find a nanny.
…
Shi Yunnan came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, only to feel that his confused mind was much clearer.
Shi Yunnan leaned on his bed, remembering that he 'left' Luo Lingsheng and went back to the room as soon as he got home, his eyebrows twitched again, trying to sort out his true thoughts—
He wanted to get to know Luo Lingsheng step by step, but the occasional sudden possessiveness would make him feel indescribably irritable.
Just like the sudden appearance of Yu Shuo today, Shi Yunnan can feel jealous and biased.
Compared to the 20-year relationship between Yu Shuo and Luo Lingsheng, the less than half a year between him and Luo Lingsheng after 'getting the certificate' is really insignificant.
Not to mention, Yu Shuo, who is a good friend, also seems to know the existence of Luo's 'Bai Yueguang'.
And what Shi Yunnan cared about most tonight was when Yu Shuo tried to jokingly mention that person's name—
Luo Lingsheng had a momentary emotional impulse to stop it, as if he was hiding a secret of his own, unwilling to be noticed by outsiders.
Shi Yunnan wanted to show that he didn't care, but his heart was full of sourness and jealousy, because he had never seen such a lover's subconscious out-of-control maintenance before.
Luo Lingsheng was always calm, rational, and mature in front of him, and never made any extraordinary demands. Such emotional management was like an invisible transparent next door blocking them.
Shi Yunnan felt that if it wasn't for the intimate contact he requested, Luo Lingsheng would have been able to live with him safely and treat each other like old guests.
Shi Yunnan looked at the tightly closed and silent door, and felt more and more uncomfortable in his heart. He sighed lightly, and simply picked up his mobile phone to divert his attention.
…
the other side.
After washing up, Luo Lingsheng was also sitting in his bedroom, the tablet in his hand was black and bright, and he couldn't read any report numbers from beginning to end.
Suddenly, the closed door made a slight noise.
That was the door of the room he reserved for Shi Yunan.
Luo Lingsheng quickly cast his gaze, but the light in the bottom of his eyes faded when he saw that it was his little nephew, "Jin Yu, why are you still not sleeping?"
The little goldfish deliberately glanced at the bathroom, and after confirming that Shi Yunnan was not there, ran up to Luo Lingsheng and looked at him eagerly.
"Uncle, did you quarrel with your little uncle?"
"No." Luo Lingsheng denied.
He and Shi Yunnan really never quarreled, and it was because of this that he felt extremely uneasy.
The little goldfish asked again, "Then why are you sleeping separately again? Because my uncle's work hasn't finished yet?"
Some time ago, Shi Yunnan was busy designing, and he got into the next bedroom every once in a while to spend the night. He knew this.
Luo Lingsheng shook his head slightly, "I'm done."
The little goldfish couldn't ask for a result for a long time, and sighed worriedly, "Then why are you unhappy, uncle?"
Luo Lingsheng didn't expect that his little nephew, who had always been able to hide his emotions, would see his flaws.
He was stunned for a long time, and then he replied, "Because in your uncle's heart, it seems that friends and career are more important than me."
The little goldfish nodded in understanding.
Luo Lingsheng mocked himself for being unpromising and asked his little nephew to talk about his concerns, but at the same time he had to pretend to be serious and demand, "Okay, you go back to sleep."
The little goldfish didn't answer his words, turned around and ran out of the bedroom.
In a few seconds, he ran into Shi Yunnan's room and put on a cute and well-behaved look, "Little uncle!"
Shi Yunnan, who was concentrating on his phone, was taken aback and quickly turned off the phone and hid it under the pillow, "What's wrong?"
The little goldfish leaned on the edge of the big bed, thought for a while before saying, "Uncle asked me to tell you that he is jealous."
"..."
Shi Yunnan was stunned for two seconds, "What?"
The little goldfish tilted his head and explained with his own thinking mode, "Because little uncle and your friends are too busy, uncle doesn't have time to sleep with you if he wants to."
Shi Yunnan couldn't help but chuckle twice, no matter how true or false what Little Goldfish said, "He was jealous and he didn't come to me. You don't sleep at night, what are you doing to join in the fun?"
"Little uncle, then why don't you go to uncle?"
Shi Yunnan rubbed the little goldfish's head and explained it simply and clearly, "Just like I like the little goldfish and the little goldfish likes me, we have to express each other, right?"
"It's tiring to always go to another person alone."
"I understand!"
The little goldfish nodded thoughtfully and quickly ran out of the room.
Shi Yunnan watched him slip away, but his mind stayed on the conversation just now—
He thought about it for the most part of the past half month, and he seemed to be a little bit ignored by Luo Lingsheng, who was busy designing at his desk.
The two are not like lovers, but more like roommates living under the same roof.
With Luo Lingsheng's mature and stable personality, he would never say 'don't work with me' when he knew that he loves design and regards Yuan's as a cooperative business.
Even if he was really jealous, Luo Lingsheng would never interfere with his every move at work, and the love he gave was tolerant enough.
The initiative in the relationship is never only manifested on the bright side, but as long as the likes are towards each other, wouldn't it be good
When Shi Yunan thought of this, the uneasy feeling in his heart suddenly disappeared without a trace—
What white moonlight? Aren't they all in the past
The sound of Luo Ling that he could feel in his daily life would not be false.
How about less than half a year together? It took him so little time to conquer Luo Lingsheng, which no one else could conquer.
As long as he wanted to, let alone twenty years, he could go on with Luo Lingsheng for a lifetime!
…
Just as Shi Yunan was clearing his thoughts, the little goldfish ran back to Luo Lingsheng's room.
The child raised his head and said confidently, "Uncle, little uncle wants you to go over and coax him!"
"..."
Luo Lingsheng didn't expect that the little nephew would actually become the communication between the two, so he simply pulled the little nephew closer, "Does he really say that?"
The little goldfish blinked, "Of course! My uncle said that if you like it, you must express it to each other!"
Xiao Jinyu thought about it for a while, trying to express Shi Yunnan's words more clearly, he made an exaggerated gesture, "Uncle, you actually have so much and so much love for little uncle."
Immediately, he gestured a little with his thumb and forefinger super stingy, "But you can only express so much."
After the little goldfish finished his expression, he shook his head with a look of 'hate iron is not steel', "Uncle! Don't make my uncle cry anymore, otherwise, I don't like you anymore."
"Last time you weren't at home, my uncle was very sad. I coaxed it for you!"
As the little goldfish spoke, he suddenly puffed out his cheeks angrily, as if blaming Luo Lingsheng for not being enlightened.
Luo Lingsheng did not expect that when he was in his early thirties, it would actually be his nephew's turn to 'teach a lesson'.
He rubbed the little goldfish's head rarely, and answered seriously, "Okay, I know."
After he finished speaking, he controlled the wheelchair to the side of Shi Yunnan's bedroom.
Just as Luo Lingsheng was about to knock on the door, the door was opened by Shi Yunnan from inside.
The two of them looked at each other, and suddenly started talking in tacit agreement, "I have something to tell you."
There was a faint smile in Shi Yunnan's eyes, and he turned sideways to make way for Luo Lingsheng, "Come in?"
"good."
The bedroom door was closed gently.
The little goldfish, who was hiding in the corner and peeking at the play, ran out hastily, and leaned on the door of the room lightly and listened for a while.
After confirming that there was no quarrel, he quickly slipped back to his small room before the housekeeper and the nanny found it.
The little goldfish picked up the heat preservation pot at the head of the bed and drank the water to relieve the thirst in his throat. Then he sighed tiredly and contentedly—
"Hey, it really doesn't give me peace of mind."
