Lu Family Garden.
"Brother Qin Gu, don't blame Xiao Bai anymore. After all, it's been a long time." Xiao Yang looked thoughtfully at the direction in which Lu Bai and Qu Xueyu left.
Qin Gu just pursed his lips tightly and looked in that direction, but did not answer.
The banquet was almost over, but the hall was still brightly lit and filled with laughter and laughter, which made the osmanthus forest here even more profound.
In this silence, Qin Gu suddenly remembered the past seven years ago that he had never wanted to recall but could never forget.
At that time, due to some reasons, he was in high school in Chunming, but he had two younger brothers in Jinghai whom he had grown up with. One was domineering and loved to cause trouble, while the other was quiet, well-behaved and lovable. That day, these two little guys bought bus tickets and secretly skipped school and sneaked to Chunming to look for him. They entered his school. Needless to say, this idea was also proposed by the trouble-making kid. The quiet and well-behaved one couldn't resist, so he was dragged into the water.
The bold and domineering one is Lu Bai, and the quiet and well-behaved one is Xiao Yang.
Lu Bai didn't like Xiao Yang at that time. Taking advantage of his young age and good family background, he always liked to bully and frame him to cause trouble for him. Xiao Yang's mantra since he was a child was that "Xiao Bai didn't mean it, it doesn't matter." '
When he was pushed into the pond by the other party and rescued by him, he still held on to his sleeves. Even though he was shivering with cold, and even though he had just passed death, the first words he said were still: "Xiao Bai didn't mean it, it doesn't matter." Lu Bai didn't know where he was wandering around on campus at that time. If he hadn't arrived in time, Xiao Yang would have really drowned.
He was still a teenager at the time, and suddenly felt disappointed and angry: the brother he valued was so vicious at such a young age.
"That brat Lu Bai is spoiled and needs a lesson." At that time, he hugged Xiao Yang and said through gritted teeth.
He was followed by a group of teenagers who were in the hot-blooded age. After hearing this, they looked at me and I looked at you. After finally finding Lu Bai on campus that night, they imprisoned him in an abandoned warehouse in the school. They didn't know that Lu Bai had been afraid of the dark since he was a child, and they just wanted to teach him a small lesson.
At that time, he was accompanying Xiao Yang in the hospital and didn't know the news at all. When he rushed to the warehouse after knowing it, the door of the warehouse was wide open and there was no trace of Lu Bai inside. He just thought that Lu Bai found a way to open the door and leave, and because he was in trouble, he felt guilty and dared not see him, so he didn't go looking for him.
In fact, it was indeed the case. He was truly relieved when he found out that Lu Bai had returned to Whale Sea the next evening. But that child was too vicious. He would not admit his mistakes or say anything when he did something wrong, and would beat him up. After that day, because of the Lu family, Xiao Yang and his mother had no choice but to go abroad.
Qin Gu felt that this was really unfair, but he had feelings for that vicious and domineering young man that he shouldn't have. He couldn't help but didn't mean what he said. Only he knew that he just saw Qu Xueyu's hand on the young man's shoulder. At that moment, he was so jealous that he wanted to kill someone.
That boy owed Xiao Yang an apology, but he just wanted to give himself a despicable excuse to like that boy openly.
Xiao Yang turned around and looked at the man next to him who had some emotions rolling in his eyes. His eyes darkened and his lips were pursed tightly, leaking out a few strands of fleeting resentment.
…
River view villa.
Lu Bai thought that this young man named Ruan Jiangjiu was so beautiful and strange. Just by staying by his side, he could feel soothed and become peaceful and calm.
The rabbit night light was placed on the bedside, and the whole room was shrouded in a warm dusk. Lu Bai was sunk in the soft quilt, and the tip of his nose was filled with the delicious fragrance of the young man. It was obvious that he was about to be close when his eyelids touched each other. Fell asleep.
Ruan Jiangjiu turned sideways and looked at the other person's profile quietly. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the boy's cheeks and lovely lips that were now flushed because he was about to fall asleep, but in the end he just rubbed the other person's hair - there was clearly a certain existence between him and him. He has a certain boundary, so his uncontrollable feelings must be allowed by the young man. After all, he cherishes this young man so much.
Lu Bai turned sideways and turned to Ruan Jiangjiu, almost subconsciously catering to the other person's hand playing with his hair, like a cat with its claws tucked away and nestling beside its master. He closed his eyes, and the tip of his nose was almost touching the other person's chest. The body temperature and pleasant smell of the young man enveloped him, making him feel safe and warm, and he suddenly felt a desire to talk.
"Xiao Ruan, actually I have claustrophobia." He said softly with his eyes closed. Ruan Jiangjiu made a movement, then gently placed his hand on the young man's shoulder, as if hugging him.
"But I was actually just afraid of the dark when I was a child," Lu Bai said. "It was only when I was twelve years old that I was locked in a very dark place and it hurt like all the bones in my body were broken, so I developed claustrophobia. Syndrome. Xiao Ruan, at that time I really suspected that I was going to die."
"But that was the only time when I didn't do anything bad," he narrated quietly - around this young man, such an unforgettable topic could be narrated so calmly: "Xiao Ruan, do you believe me?"
Would this young man believe that in the eyes of outsiders, he was so arrogant, domineering and vicious? Do you believe that he really didn't do anything to Xiao Yang, but he got a punishment he didn't deserve
He is a human being, and even if he comes to this world for no reason, he will still have human feelings. After spending so long with Qin Gu, he really regarded Qin Gu as his brother at that time. Although he hated Xiao Yang's pettyness, he did No ill will towards him. The plot requires him to push Xiao Yang into the water. Pushing someone into the water is different from other harmless pranks. He doesn't want to hurt others and doesn't want to disappoint Qin Gu, so he goes against the plot for the first time.
Seven years ago, after everything happened, Qin Gu stood in front of him, his eyes full of coldness and disgust. He said something so similar to today: "Lu Bai, you should apologize to Xiao Yang. You owe him half your life. "
"I don't. I don't owe him."
"Lu Bai, you are still quibbling."
From that time on, Lu Bai knew that Qin Gu was no longer his brother, maybe he never had been.
For some reason, while listening to the young man's calm narration, Ruan Jiangjiu felt that his heart was numb with pain. The pain came suddenly, like a blazing fire, but could not be stopped. It was as if he had known this young man for a long, long time. I have felt sorry for this boy many, many times.
This kind of pain gave him the illusion that he was reunited with this young man after a long absence - after all, the first time he saw him, he felt like he had seen him before.
"Bang, bang"
Ruan Jiangjiu heard his own heartbeat intertwined with Lu Bai's, unable to tell them apart.
So, he hugged the young man together with the quilt, then came forward and pressed his lips gently on the other's forehead, leaving them as soon as they touched. His voice was low and gentle, like a lullaby to soothe the soul at night: "Little one, Bai, of course I know what you are like, of course I believe you."
Peeling off the weak outer shell, this boy is so soft and pure inside.
Lu Bai was startled, his eyes were a little hot, but a faint smile appeared on his lips. He buried his face in the young man's arms and let out a comfortable sigh: "Xiao Ruan, you are so kind." Then he felt at ease. Fall into a wonderful sleep.
Ruan Jiangjiu hugged the boy to sleep for the first time, like holding the most fragile and precious treasure in the world.
Lu Bai's phone lit up on the bedside, and there was a message on it, from Lu Zhi.
"The web series will start shooting in three days."
