When Chu Yu woke up, he was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes. He stretched out his hand to touch Lu Shi's forehead, vaguely aware that his subordinates felt wrong, and instinctively touched up slowly, chest, shoulders, Adam's apple, chin—
"what are you doing?"
"Ah?" Chu Yu took a few beats slowly, opened his eyes with difficulty, only to find that Lu Shi had woken up, his black forehead was messy, his lips were pale and bloodless, and he was looking at himself.
"I wanted to touch my forehead, why did you wake up so early?"
"Can't sleep."
Lu Shi's voice was more hoarse than usual, a little subwoofer, and it sounded sexy beyond his age.
Chu Yu rubbed his itchy ears on the pillow subconsciously, and finally put his hand on Lu Shi's forehead smoothly, "Well, it's not burning anymore. It really scared me to death in the early morning. It burned so badly that I couldn't even breathe. It's so hot, I'm ready to hit 120!"
Lu Shi didn't have this memory, so he asked Chu Yu, "What happened later?"
Yawning, Chu Yu recalled vaguely, "Later, I followed the video and gave you a physical cooling. When it was almost dawn, the temperature finally dropped."
As he spoke, his voice gradually fell, and his head unconsciously began to arch into Lu Shi's arms, "I can't hold it anymore, I'm so sleepy, I'll sleep a little longer..."
Before he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and fell back asleep.
He has big eyes, long split eyes, and particularly white skin. When I closed my eyes, I could see a faint circle of blue and black under the eyes.
Lu Shi touched Chu Yu's hair with his lips, pulled up the quilt, hugged the person and closed his eyes again.
Winter is a good season to stay in bed, which can make people sleep softly and not want to leave the bed at all.
Rolling in a small circle on the bed, Chu Yu turned to Lu Shi, "Should we get up?"
Lu Shi brushed his fingers from the end of his wet eyes, "Wake up?"
"Well, wake up."
Chu Yu suddenly regained his energy, "It is said on the Internet that patients with high fever want to drink porridge! Let me get up and cook porridge for you! No, do you have rice at home?"
"No."
Lu Shi retracted his hand, rubbed the tear stain on his finger, and looked at Chu Yu inquiringly, "Did you cry last night?"
Chu Yu's expression condensed for a moment, then shook his head quickly, "How could I cry!"
Lu Shi didn't believe it, "You're crying."
Chu Yu flatly denied, "I really don't!"
He wanted to say that whoever cried was a puppy, but this oath was a bit poisonous, and he couldn't say it. He simply stared at Lu Shi with a pair of big eyes, showing that he was not guilty.
Lu Shi didn't speak, and quietly observed Chu Yu's expression. After a few breaths, he suddenly said, "Did you see it?"
Panic in his heart, Chu Yu's hand hidden in the bed suddenly clenched tightly.
For such a long time, Lu Shi used the watch or the wrist guard to hide the scars on his wrists tightly without revealing them.
Although he was in love, Chu Yu didn't think that he could recklessly pull out the past that Lu Shi wanted to hide, and forcibly expose it to the sun.
Lu Shi didn't want anyone to know, so he could pretend that he never saw it.
However, before Chu Yu could continue to deny it, or forcefully find some other reason to put it off, he saw Lu Shi sitting up and slowly unraveling the watch on his left wrist, his expression not moving.
Chu Yu suddenly felt an indescribable sadness, he stretched out his hand, grabbed Lu Shi's finger, and stopped, "No, no need like this..."
The words were stumbling, and there was even a little pleading in his eyes.
Lu Shi didn't stop until he took off his watch and threw it aside.
On the thin wrist, the scars were exposed unobstructed in Chu Yu's sight.
Lu Shi's voice was very soft, "These scars are hidden in the dark and are about to rot. It's not bad if you have a look."
He raised his wrist, lowered his eyelids, and looked at the scar with complete indifference, "However, isn't it very ugly? You have always liked pretty things, so you shouldn't want to see more."
When Chu Yu unfastened the watch strap from Lu Shi, he was silent and did not speak.
He found that no matter how strong or how strong Lu Shi was, when facing him, it was like wearing heavy armor, but he still left an inch of softness.
Chu Yu didn't speak, but pulled Lu Shi's wrist, lowered his head, and dropped a kiss on the hideous scar.
This action was unexpected. In Lu Shi's eyes, as if the ice layer was broken, a little smile was drawn.
Between going downstairs to buy rice to cook porridge and ordering take-out, Chu Yu chose to have a porridge and side dishes delivered from the restaurant he often eats.
Hanging up the phone, and remembering that Lu Shi needed to drink more water, Chu Yu threw on his slippers and got out of bed, and went into the kitchen to boil water.
Looking at the empty kitchen, Chu Yu couldn't help clinging to the door and shouting, "Lu Shi, the mice in your house will starve to death!"
Lu Shi leaned on the bed, and when he saw Chu Yu holding the door and his soft hair fluffy, he stretched out his hand, "Come here."
Chu Yu approached with his slippers on, "Why?"
"Let me kiss."
Chu Yu took a half step back abruptly, "Boyfriend, you're really tired of this!" He approached again, "However, for the sake of your good looks, I'll give you a kiss to make you happy. happy."
When the takeaway arrived, Chu Yu urged Lu Shi to finish eating all the porridge and vegetables, and worried, "Is there really no problem? Do you want me to buy medicine?"
"Need not."
Lu Shi turned on his phone and swiped the time displayed on the screen, "Someone wants to come over."
"Who is it, Stone?" Chu Yu thought for a while, "Or is it Zhu Zhifei? This is the first day of the holiday, so his mother shouldn't be so extinct, so let him go to the cram school?"
"No, Fang Weiyun."
With a stagnant expression, Chu Yu suspected that he had heard it wrong, "What is she doing here?"
But after asking, Chu Yu reacted again, "Because Iris is pregnant? Is she trying to... win you over?"
Chu Yu quickly understood.
In the past, Fang Weiyun was not good to Lu Shi, but it was because Lu Shaochu would not have a second child, and Madam Lu's position was very stable. So she put all her anger on Lu Shi one after another.
Later, Lu Shi learned that his biological mother was someone else, and he would no longer be close to her. For a short time, she was still able to calm down.
But now it's different. A young, beautiful and scheming woman, pregnant with Lu Shaochu's child, directly aimed at Mrs. Lu's position. She felt that she couldn't fight, and gradually became confused, and only then did she think of coming to win over Lu Shi.
Chu Yu calmed down and handed the water glass to Lu Shi, "Drink after drinking, drink more hot water when you are sick!"
Lu Shi took it and drank all the water obediently.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door.
Chu Yu pointed to the bedroom, turned around and ran in like the wind.
Lu Shi got up and opened the door.
Fang Weiyun wore a white couture cashmere coat and deerskin lace gloves, but her hair was not tucked up like usual, but was draped down and she wore no makeup, looking pale and haggard.
She originally covered her mouth and nose with her hands, as if to block out some unpleasant smell. After the metal door in front of him opened, he put down his hand very quickly, and looked at the landing time with a sincere expression.
Lu Shi wore a loose black sweater, which made his skin extremely white, and his lips were bloodless. He stood at the door with an indifferent expression, and he didn't mean to let Fang Weiyun enter.
This is his mother's house.
Fang Weiyun glanced at the room, the meaning was obvious, "Lu Shi—"
Lu Shi only asked, "What's the matter?"
Fang Weiyun clenched her handbag, and her eyes immediately turned red, "Lu Shi, now, it's a holiday, do you want to go home and have a look? Your father, me, and grandpa miss you very much. It's New Year's Eve, and we don't like it very much. Don't worry, you live out alone, all alone, we..."
As she spoke, she cried directly, her voice becoming choked, "Mom—"
Looking at Lu Shi's expression, she changed her words again, "I'm really having a hard time during this time, your father hasn't been home for a long time..."
On the mottled wall, there are messy old stains, as well as various small advertisements for engraving and unlocking, as well as numbers and birds drawn messily by children.
Lu Shi leaned against the door frame, and lost another two points because of his illness. His eyes were dark, and he watched Fang Weiyun's performance from top to bottom, with a hint of mockery in his eyes.
Fang Weiyun cried for a while, but she had no choice but to slowly hold back her tears without getting any feedback from Lu Shi.
She changed the word.
"In addition, this time I came here in person to tell you something."
Fang Weiyun spoke softly, looking at Lu Shi worriedly, "This news may make you sad, but for your own good, I still want to tell you. Your father, he, let a woman outside become pregnant with him. children."
After Fang Weiyun finished speaking, she stared at Lu Shi's face, trying to find expressions of shock, panic, and embarrassment from above.
But unlike what she expected, Lu Shi didn't even change his posture, he just replied, "I see." It was extremely cold.
Before that, Fang Weiyun had suppressed her emotions. If it wasn't for the last resort, she wouldn't come to Qingchuan Road to find Lu Shi at all.
But now, Lu Shi's attitude was like the oil poured on the fire, causing the anger accumulated in her heart to burn up instantly.
"Lu Shi! Do you know what this means? It means we are all done! We are done! You are no longer the only heir to the Lu family, and your position will soon be taken away! What are you? Can't get it either!"
Her voice was so sharp that she was talking about Lu Shi, but she became more and more frightened, and the knuckles of grasping the handbag turned white and even trembled.
The winter wind blew in from outside the corridor, making it bone-chilling.
Lu Shi raised the corner of his mouth, without laughing, the words were clear, "You didn't think clearly about it."
Fang Weiyun was slow for a few seconds before raising her head and looking at Lu Shi, "What?"
"What if Lu Shaochu has a child outside? I am eighteen years older than him, he was born, and I am an adult. Mrs. Lu, you say, why should I be afraid?"
Fang Weiyun opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
When she looked at Lu who was standing in the backlight, she subconsciously took a half step back, her high-heeled shoes stepped on the concrete floor, making a clear "da" sound.
At this moment, she felt that Lu Shi was extraordinarily unfamiliar.
Obviously it shouldn't be like this, it can't be like this, this is not the result she wants to get on this trip!
The tone became flustered, Fang Weiyun said repeatedly, "Lu Shi, you will help me, right? You definitely will—"
"Mrs. Lu."
Being interrupted, Fang Weiyun was not unhappy at all, but a bit of hope rose in her eyes, and even her expression lit up.
Her eyes widened slightly, looking at Lu Shi expectantly, waiting for what he said next.
Lu Shi's voice was soft, and his eyes were full of malice, "'You bastard with dirty blood in your body', it seems that you have forgotten what you did to me before. Mrs. Lu, you How naive are you to think that I will help you?"
