As Chi Qiu continued to show love, Lu Ming spent more and more time with him, and Chi Qiu was no longer the person who waited at home alone until late at night every day.
Now he will obediently stand at the door to greet Lu Ming when Lu Ming gets off work on time.
When it rains, he will hold an umbrella; when it is sunny, he will prepare a hug.
If Lu Ming is a stubborn and dull rock, then Chi Qiu is a flower with light branches, falling on this hard rock. No matter how many times he bumped into a wall or how many times he hurt, he could still smile and say to Lu Ming, "I'm back."
No matter how numb Lu Ming's feelings are, Chi Qiu clearly felt the meaning of "home".
This is the first time that Lu Ming's impression of "home" has become concrete.
Lu Ming didn't have a complete family since he was a child: a father who was full of lies and never returned, a mother who was in good and bad spirits, a grandfather who was busy with company affairs, a grandfather and grandmother who were always dissatisfied with their daughter's marriage, and who rarely returned home after studying abroad. Uncle at home.
No one has ever been like Chi Qiu, waiting for him to arrive home every day, clinging to his side, holding his hand, and chatteringly sharing trivial and boring things in life with him.
Lu Ming didn't know what else to do. He began to bring home desserts and milk tea frequently, as if to repay Chi Qiu. He fed the thin Chi Qiu to gain ten catties.
But the word "fat" can't be reflected in Chi Qiu's body, and the slightly rounder Chi Qiu looks better. Chi Qiu really didn't want to eat sweets anymore, so he took a chance and told Lu Ming tactfully: "I can't get fatter."
Lu Ming told him solemnly: "You are not fat."
"I used to be too thin, but now it's just right."
Chi Qiu thought that Lu Ming didn't understand on purpose, and became anxious. He couldn't continue to indulge Lu Ming's sweet behavior: "Eating too much sweet is not good for your health. Even, no matter how much I like it, you can't always Buy it. Look, I've got pimples, and I've never had any before."
He pointed to his chin and raised his head to let Lu Ming see clearly.
Lu Ming looked carefully and found a small pimple on Chi Qiu's chin. To say it's a pimple seems like a bit of an exaggeration.
"It's not a pox."
"Lu Ming, it is." Chi Qiu insisted.
Lu Ming reached out to touch his chin, but Chi Qiu grabbed his hand and hugged him in his arms. Chi Qiu's voice was soft and sounded the same as usual, but what he said was a little domineering: "From today onwards, you are not allowed to buy milk tea and cakes to go home, do you understand?"
This was probably the first time Chi Qiu said the word "no" to Lu Ming.
Lu Ming was taken aback, feeling fresh for the first time.
Chi Qiu didn't hear Lu Ming's answer, and was ready to argue with Lu Ming, feeling very nervous. No matter what, he must stop Lu Ming.
Just as he was about to open his mouth, Lu Ming responded honestly: "Got it."
"What, regret it?"
Chi Qiu shook his head violently, he didn't have a chance to utter a word when he was full of words.
But Chi Qiu finally didn't have to eat sweets anymore, he tiptoed happily and kissed the corner of Lu Ming's mouth.
Inside the villa.
Xiao Yan, who was helping to carry the ingredients, came out of the kitchen with Aunt Zhang, and happened to encounter this scene...the two returned to the kitchen consciously.
Xiao Yan secretly peeked out, feeling: "I didn't expect Mr. Lu to be so serious all day long, but he is actually a 'strict husband' at home."
Aunt Zhang knocked on Xiao Yan's forehead: "You brat, you don't know what to say. This is called love, do you understand?" Having said that, Aunt Zhang agrees with Xiao Yan's words very much in her heart.
Lu Ming listened to Chi Qiu's words very much at home, especially recently, in Aunt Zhang's opinion, he was obedient to the point of exaggeration.
She thought to herself, could it be that she did something wrong? But after thinking about it carefully, Lu Ming works at home every day. Apart from being busy with work, he spends time with Chi Qiu. He is extremely dedicated.
This kind of good partner, at Aunt Zhang's age, is hard to find even with a lantern. The only shortcoming is that Lu Ming doesn't have much expression and often looks absent-minded.
Soon it was the end of April, and Chi Qiu and Lu Ming got on the plane to C City.
It was the first time the two went out "far away" together. Considering Chi Qiu's inconvenience, Lu Ming took him out after arranging a lot of things. The one-hour flight time was too short, and Chi Qiu hadn't recovered from the fact that he had already arrived in City C, where the greening was done quite well.
His excitement overwhelmed his apprehension, he held his guide stick tightly all the way, and followed Lu Ming to breathe the first breath of grass-leaf-scented air outside the airport in City C.
The driver arranged by Lu Ming waited outside for a long time, and politely opened the car door for them.
In the car, Lu Ming and Chi Qiu sat in the back seat together, with a laptop on his lap, and he was dealing with work matters.
Chi Qiu was very quiet, he was afraid of disturbing Lu Ming.
It was Lu Ming who spoke first: "The concert is at seven o'clock in the evening, and it's still early. Let's go to the hotel to pack our luggage and have dinner in advance. You can rest for a while later, or you can meet Ji Yanchen—" He cooperated On the notebook, "It's up to you."
The largest hotel in City C is owned by Ji's family.
Recently, the miserable Ji Yanchen was brought here by Ji Feining to learn how to manage the affairs of his own hotel.
Bored in every possible way, he learned that Chi Qiu and Lu Ming were going to come to City C to attend a concert at the end of the month, so he couldn't wait to arrange a first-class room for them.
According to Ji Yanchen's words: "You guys don't live in my hotel when you come to City C? Are you short of that money? What's wrong with coming to support my business?"
He asked three times in one breath, not only confused Chi Qiu, but also silenced Lu Ming who was beside Chi Qiu.
Who is Chi Qiu? This call was placed outside.
Helpless, Lu Ming asked his assistant to cancel the hotel he had previously booked. When he asked his assistant to rebook Ji's hotel, Ji Yanchen called again and said triumphantly: "I have reserved a room for you, I treat you, do you want to arrange roses in the room for you?"
Chi Qiu was glad that he didn't turn it on this time. He half covered his phone with his hands and told Lu Ming that Ji Yanchen had reserved a room for them. Then, under the pretense of going to the bedroom to get something, he whispered furtively into the phone: "Why don't you put some."
"Is a little enough?"
"Then, let's put more." Chi Qiu scratched the tip of his nose, quite embarrassed.
As expected, Ji Yanchen knew Chi Qiu very well, and he swore, "I know you like it. Let me tell you another good news, you definitely like it more!" Before saying that, he suddenly asked, "You didn't release your phone to the public this time, did you? "
"No, he's in the living room, I'm going back to the bedroom."
"Will he eavesdrop?"
"Of course not!"
"Okay." Ji Yanchen said reassuringly, "The room I arranged for you has a double bathtub, and you can watch the night view while taking a bath. The location is excellent!"
For a moment, something unspeakable appeared in Chi Qiu's mind. He immediately swallowed his saliva, just thinking about it would cause a "cerebral hemorrhage". He sincerely thanked Ji Yanchen, and sighed: "This is really great!"
Chi Qiu was looking forward to this romantic weekend trip.
Ji Yanchen didn't need Chi Qiu to thank him. In the end, he said, "You just have to be careful, don't show your eyes, otherwise I won't be helping you."
When the word "eyes" was mentioned, Ji Yanchen cautiously lowered his voice even though there was no one around him at the moment.
He really felt sorry for Chi Qiu: "You are really amazing. If I were to pretend to be blind, I wouldn't be able to pretend for so many years. How on earth did you do it? Don't you feel panicked all these years?"
You know, as a blind person, no matter in life or in other aspects, you have to pay attention to everything.
Chi Qiu didn't take it seriously: "I'm used to it."
"If I were you, my eyes might be exposed as soon as my eyesight recovers." Ji Yanchen really admired Chi Qiu.
However, Ji Yanchen knew it in his heart. The relationship between the Chi family is complicated, and Chi Qiu's eyes are like a rope that can maintain the superficial relationship. Once it is broken, the so-called home will fall apart.
Since Chi Qiu regained sight in his right eye at the age of 15, he had to continue to be a blind person because of some things, and he kept this matter as a secret and buried it in his heart.
Even if it was Ji Yanchen, Chi Qiu didn't tell him at first.
If it wasn't for Ji Yanchen's unintentional encounter with Chi Qiu's actions, Chi Qiu might be able to hide it from him until now.
He couldn't understand how much endurance accumulated in Chi Qiu's heart, and whether they would suddenly burn one day, engulfing Chi Qiu himself, and burning him into a pile of ashes.
Until later, 25-year-old Chi Qiu reunited with Lu Ming and decided to leave the Chi family.
After Ji Yanchen heard the news, he was both sad and happy. The sad thing is that Chi Qiu found a wooden man, and the happy thing is that Chi Qiu can take the opportunity to "recover his eyesight" and no longer need to be a blind person.
At that time, Ji Yanchen secretly hid Ji Feining, used his own ability to manage hospitals and doctors abroad, and planned to let Chi Qiu go abroad to pretend to have an operation.
It's a pity that things backfired, and everything was not as they expected.
