The smile on Xiao Yang's face froze when he heard this, and then he said: "Teacher Qu was joking. It's just that Xiao Bai has always misunderstood me, so Brother Qin brought me here directly." The implication is that the Lu family is because of Lu Bai Hu Nao insisted and refused to give him the invitation.
Qu Xueyu rubbed the side of the cup with her beautiful fingers, and a cold expression appeared on her face. Just as he was about to say something else, a female voice with a piano-like sound sounded: "Mr. Xiao, what he said is wrong."
Sheng Mei was wearing an elegant rose-red dress, with a decent smile on her face, but her voice was a little cold.
She came to the center of the crowd, glanced at Lu Min, and then at Xiao Yang. The smile on her face became even bigger. She seemed to be joking and said: "My husband and I decided who to invite. Today is our home." The banquet invites all acquaintances of course. We should be blamed for Mr. Xiao not receiving the invitation. Why do you blame Xiao Bai?" After a pause, she said in a medium voice that could be heard everywhere: "Our little Bai has always been simple and careless. Whatever he has to say, he always says it directly. He won't do anything like making secret comments. Please forgive me."
The people around looked at me and I looked at you, and they were a little shocked: If Lu Bai doesn't do secret poking, then he does secret poking, isn't it... Xiao Yang became the target of public criticism for a while, and his face turned a little pale. The smile faded a little, and a dark light flashed across Sheng Mei's eyes.
"Aunt Sheng," Qin Gu said with a cold face, "I brought him here. Please forgive me." Xiao Yang does have some connection with the Lu family. No matter what his feelings for Lu Bai are now, For Yu Li, what happened back then was indeed Lu Bai's fault, but Xiao Yang was a passionate person. He took the initiative to come to Lu's house and have a good chat with Lu Bai, so he brought him to the banquet. Since he has brought people here today, he must take good care of them.
Sheng Mei suddenly realized, and the smile on her face did not diminish: "It turns out that Mr. Qin really brought it. Since Mr. Xiao is here today, we can't say anything. It's just that Mr. Qin has to choose well next time he brings someone over. The Lu family does not welcome people who play tricks on Xiaobai." It is true that the Lu family has good relations with the Qin family and that Xiaobai likes Qin Gu, but even so, Qin Gu and the people he brought should not He went too far to bully others and used tricks to bully his master in the Lu family.
These words were spoken quite mercilessly. The guests around him looked at each other and were speechless. They just looked at Xiao Yang in a vague way, with a bit of contempt in their eyes.
Qin Gu's face turned colder, and Lu Min was so angry that he couldn't say a word. Sheng Mei looked at Lu Bai, her eyes suddenly softened, and she said: "Xiao Bai, go upstairs, you Grandpa misses you very much." After a pause, she looked at Qu Xueyu again: "Mr. Qu, go too, father said he wants to see you."
…
Lu Bai walked on the stairs, feeling as if he was in a dream. He could think that his aunt would protect him, but he never expected that Qu Xueyu would suddenly jump out before his aunt.
This is so abnormal.
Thinking of this, Lu Bai stopped, leaned on the railing and looked at the man next to him, with some confusion on his face: "Qu Xueyu, you..."
Qu Xueyu stopped and looked at the young man with raised eyebrows, a smile in his eyes.
"Are you doing this today for Brother Qin Gu?" By this time, the protagonist Shou should have clearly realized that he likes the protagonist Gong, but the protagonist Gong cares too much about Xiao Yang, and the protagonist Shou feels unhappy about Xiao Yang. Opinions are also normal. This idea seems to make sense, but it is still wrong. Qu Xueyu looks like a mountain and has a very arrogant personality. He would not do this for such a thing.
Qu Xueyu's brows twitched when he heard this: "No." When will this young man stop linking him with Qin Gu? He and Qin Gu obviously have nothing to do with each other.
"Then you are..." Lu Bai really couldn't think of any other reason. It couldn't be that his little Ruan Hun had penetrated Qu Xueyu and came to protect him.
Qu Xueyu looked seriously into the young man's eyes, and then a smile that turned everyone upside down appeared on his face. He shrugged: "Obviously, I did it for you." After saying that, he turned around and walked upstairs, leaving only Lu Bai opened his eyes wide and stared blankly, doubting life.
…
study.
Grandpa Lu has some inconvenient legs and feet due to his age. He is sitting in a wheelchair, and Lu Bai squats next to him with a soft and cute smile on his face.
The old man who was usually resolute and serious now had a gentle smile on his face. He patted Lu Bai's hand and said: "Bai Bai, don't be soft-tempered in the future. You have to be tougher, you know? If you are tougher, you won't be bullied. You are You have a good heart. Remember, no matter what happens, grandpa will support you."
Lu Bai twitched the corner of his mouth and thought to himself that he was already fierce, tough, and domineering outside. How much filter did his grandfather put on him before he would think he was soft-tempered and kind-hearted, but there was a feeling of warmth in his heart - The old man really loved him, so he said: "Grandpa, don't worry, no one dares to bully me."
"Are you that boy from the Qu family?" The old man looked at the beautiful young man who was obviously avoiding his grandson when he came in.
Qu Xueyu agreed very much with the old man's words, and nodded secretly with a decent smile on his face: "Grandpa Lu, I am Qu Xueyu, and grandpa wants me to come to visit you."
"Okay, okay." Grandpa Lu was in a good mood when he saw his grandson. It was rare that he became a little more gentle to outsiders: "Tell him that I will stay in Whale Sea for a while, and then I will ask him to go fishing."
Qu Xueyue smiled: "Don't worry, I will definitely bring you."
Mr. Lu looked at Lu Bai again, his face full of doting. He patted Lu Bai's head as if coaxing a child: "I'll take Bai Bai and Guan Guan together to relax, okay?"
Lu Bai smiled so hard that his eyes curled up: "Of course."
Qu Xueyu raised an eyebrow after hearing this, and secretly had a plan in mind.
…
This time the banquet was held in the living room. The osmanthus forest in the Lu family garden looked deep and quiet at night. In autumn, the branches were full of osmanthus flowers, and the garden was filled with sweet fragrance. Lu Bai walked in the night and fragrance, frowning slightly.
Today's plot still failed, but so far, the plot world still has not punished him. What is going on... He clearly remembers that when he was twelve years old, he completely rejected the main plot for some reason for the first time. After that, the plot world launched the real punishment mechanism. That time he was so painful that he never wanted to experience it again.
But this time, and last time, he had not completed all the main plots, and the punishment mechanism was completely silent.
If it weren't for the punishment mechanism and his desire to find out the truth about why he came to this world, he wouldn't want to be a vicious male supporting character or a plot.
"Lu Bai."
A voice suddenly rang out. Lu Bai was startled. He raised his head and saw Qin Gu, who should have been in the banquet hall, standing in front of him. Next to him stood Xiao Yang.
Lu Bai's lips curled downward tightly: He was thinking about something. Even if his character would be ruined, he didn't want to have anything to do with them now, so he turned around and left, but Qin Gu grabbed his wrist.
"Lu Bai." For some reason, Qin Gu felt flustered and irritable for no reason when he saw such a young man, as if he was about to lose something most precious, so he could no longer say the next words.
"Brother Qin, Xiaobai is angry with me today. It's understandable that he doesn't want to see me." Xiao Yang's gentle voice sounded.
Qin Gu seemed to be awakened. He looked at Lu Bai, frowned and said, "Lu Bai, you should apologize to Xiao Yang for what happened seven years ago." As long as he apologizes, Xiao Yang will forgive him, and he will , and can forgive him naturally and become the brother who loves him again.
When he was twelve years old, the memories he had never wanted to remember were brought back to life by Qin Gu's words. Lu Bai's face truly sank for the first time. He broke away from Qin Gu's hand with force and looked directly into Qin Gu's eyes. Stubbornly, he said word by word: "I, no. Only seven years ago, I had a clear conscience."
Qin Gu's pupils shrank and his brows furrowed suddenly. He looked closely at Lu Bai's stubborn brows and felt a twinge of pain in his heart for no reason, but he still said: "It's a mistake, I apologize." He could only say: Only by apologizing can he forgive him.
Lu Bai still looked stubborn: "Absolutely, no."
Qin Gu was startled by the redness at the end of the young man's eyes, and Xiao Yang's voice rang out: "Brother Qin, forget it." He looked at Lu Bai, narrowed his eyes, and was about to speak when he was interrupted.
"Xiao Bai," Qu Xueyu came from the path. He passed through an osmanthus tree, and his snow-white collar was stained with night dew and the fragrance of flowers. He stood next to Lu Bai, and his pupils shrank when he saw the expression on the young man's face. , but just gently hugged the other person's shoulders and said in a gentle tone: "Why are you here? Grandpa Lu is looking for you."
After saying that, he looked at Qin Gu and Xiao Yang, with a smile still on his face, but the smile did not reach his eyes. His expression was a little cold for no reason. He said: "Qin Gu, Mr. Xiao, bullying the master in the master's house, this is Are there new etiquettes that have been introduced in Whale Sea in recent years? It seems that I haven’t been back to Whale Sea for too long.”
After saying that, he took Lu Bai and left. Qin Gu looked at their backs, his face colder than the crescent moon in the sky. He clenched his fists tightly, and his nails were about to pierce his palms.
…
At the door of Lu’s house.
"Thank you just now." Lu Bai looked at Qu Xueyu and said seriously. No matter what, he had just saved himself.
Qu Xueyu looked at the young man quietly, and then shrugged: "You're welcome." It wasn't that he didn't want to ask what happened, but - "Qu Xueyu" was not qualified.
"Aren't you staying at home tonight?" It was already so late, and Lu Bai didn't look very good. He could just stay at home for one night and have a good rest.
"No." Lu Bai said.
I don't know what the young man was thinking of, but Qu Xueyu saw a glimmer of light flashing in the other man's eyes at that moment, and then he heard the young man say so gently: "There are still people waiting for me to go home."
"goodbye."
Lu Bai got into his car and left. Qu Xueyu looked at his back with thick clouds rolling in his eyes.
Not knowing what to think, he turned around and strode towards one direction.
…
It was already very late when Lu Bai got home. He got out of the car and strode towards the place with the warm yellow lights before he even had time to lock the door.
As soon as Ruan Jiangjiu had finished handling his coat and clothes, the door suddenly opened, and the young man appeared in the scattered light at the door. He lowered his head slightly, and his forehead covered his eyebrows. Ruan Jiangjiu couldn't see clearly the other person's expression at this time.
Then, he saw the young man strode forward, threw himself into his arms, and buried his cheek in his chest.
Ruan Jiangjiu's pupils shrank, and then the boy's voice came out, muffled and a little hoarse: "Xiao Ruan, you are so warm."
"You will sleep with me tonight, okay?"
