Zhu Xingyao changed into Jiang Tu's sportswear. His clothes were too big for her. The trouser legs and sleeves were much longer. She was a little worried, but her clothes were really unwearable. She could even wring water out of the collar of her sweater.

She fastened the drawstring of her trousers, rolled up her trouser legs, looked in the mirror, and went to open the door dejectedly.

Jiang Tu stood outside the door, looking down at her. No girl had ever worn his clothes before, except Zhu Xingyao. Jiang Tu looked at her, who looked even more slender and soft under the loose clothes, and felt satisfied and aching in his heart. It seemed that the two of them had become closer.

Zhu Xingyao looked up, feeling uneasy when he looked at her: "Is it ugly?"

Jiang Tu walked in, closed the door, leaned over and hugged her, rubbed his chin on the top of her head affectionately, kissed it, and whispered: "Not ugly, very beautiful, and..."

"And what?" Zhu Xingyao asked in a low voice.

Jiang Tu felt warm in his heart and whispered, "I am very satisfied when you wear my clothes."

That kind of satisfaction is the result of the man's possessiveness, which makes him feel that she belongs to him.

Zhu Xingyao was stunned, rubbed her head against him, and reached out to hug him.

"Let's go out and eat first." Jiang Tu took a deep breath and let her go.

When they returned to the dining table, Jiang Lu and the two team members were gone. Lin Jiayu explained, "He said he was afraid you would beat him up, so he ran away first."

When Jiang Lu was walking, the screen was full of pop-ups—

"Brother, you have a nice voice."

"I heard it! My brother's name is Jiang Tu, is that Tu?"

"Jiang Tu? Is that the Jiang Tu I know? I had a senior in high school named Jiang Tu."

"Sister, do you know Jiang Tu? Is he handsome? What does he do?"

After Jiang Lu walked out of the house, he saw everyone starting to strip his brother. He was so scared that he quickly asked them to show mercy and not to strip him.

It's too late.

That junior high school girl broke the news: "When I was in the first year of high school, there was a senior who was also named Jiang Tu. I heard that his family was very poor and owed a lot of debts. He also had a younger brother who was five or six years younger. He wore glasses and was very handsome, but he looked very cold. His grades were always the best in the science class. It was said that he was also a candidate for the provincial science champion at the time, and the school valued him very much. Unfortunately, he had a car accident during the college entrance examination, and his head was broken and bloody. He almost missed the exam. It seems that he did not do well in English, and his score was not enough to make it to Peking University or Tsinghua University. In the end, he went to H University. All the students in our school knew about this. At that time, there were reporters who wanted to interview him, but he refused."

A junior high school girl added: "Last month, our school celebrated its anniversary and senior Jiang Tu also attended. He was said to have just returned from the United States. Someone in our class group posted a photo of him. He was really handsome! I just flipped through the photos and found that K God looks quite similar to him..."

Jiang Lu’s personal information has been dug up by fans, and he admitted that his family was quite poor when he was a child. He also has an older brother who studied abroad.

They all match up.

Jiang Tu didn't know about this yet. He sat down expressionlessly. Zhu Xingyao looked at Du Yunfei, who looked very shocked. He was stunned for a moment and asked hesitantly, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay, he just couldn't accept the reality all of a sudden and felt that he was cheated on by his roommate..." Lao Yuan coughed and didn't say the words "cuckolded".

Du Yunfei came back to his senses and recalled the news he had seen some time ago about Zhu Xingyao's first love. He felt mixed emotions and said the same thing as Lao Yuan: "No wonder you couldn't be chased by several beautiful girls in your department during college. It turns out that you like Zhu Xingyao..."

Zhu Xingyao's face turned slightly red, she lowered her head and continued eating.

It was eleven o'clock at night when Lao Yuan and Du Yunfei left together, leaving the table full of leftovers. Jiang Tu held down Zhu Xingyao who wanted to help: "Don't move, I'll clean up later. I'll help you dry your clothes first, Uncle Liu should be here soon."

Jiang Tu found a brand new hair dryer in the bathroom. Zhu Xingyao stood at the door holding clothes and whispered, "Don't bother. I'll just wear your clothes when I go back." Jiang Tu turned to look at her, "Are you sure? I'm afraid it will be hard for you to explain to your parents when you go back."

"I'm not a child anymore. What's wrong with wearing my boyfriend's clothes?" Zhu Xingyao looked at him.

Jiang Tu looked at her deeply, and he put down the hair dryer. "It's cold outside, put on another coat."

Jiang Tu opened the closet and took out a black coat for her to put on. He took out her hair for her. Zhu Xingyao cried out, "It hurts..."

"What's wrong?" he asked hurriedly.

"My hair got stuck in the necklace..."

Zhu Xingyao reached out to touch it. Her usual way of dealing with it was to simply tear out the stuck hair. Jiang Tu held her hand and whispered, "I'll do it."

Her long hair was brushed aside, Jiang Tu stood behind her, carefully freeing the two strands of hair. She was wearing his clothes, and her body was mixed with his scent. Jiang Tu looked at her thin white neck, and remembered that she wore a summer school uniform in high school, tied her hair into a ponytail, and her thin white neck was also exposed like this, and her skin was as delicate as the finest white jade. At that time, he sat behind her and did not dare to look at her any more.

Now, he could kiss her just by lowering his head.

Zhu Xingyao felt stillness behind her and asked softly, "Is it done?" A warm breath suddenly approached, touching the fragile skin of her neck and leaving an irresistible kiss on it. Her body trembled.

Jiang Tu hugged her from behind, bent down to kiss her neck, and his breathing became heavier beside her ears.

Zhu Xingyao leaned softly in his arms, her shoulders shrinking uncontrollably.

Jiang Tu kissed her ear, turned her around, and kissed her bitten lips. Zhu Xingyao tilted her face up, hugged his neck, stepped back, and bumped into the closet door. Jiang Tu raised his hand to protect the back of her head. He raised his head, saw her trembling eyelashes, and slowly kissed her again.

A few minutes later, Lao Liu called.

Jiang Tu silently helped her zip up her clothes. Zhu Xingyao blushed and looked up at him.

"Don't look at it..."

He spoke in a low, hoarse voice, bent down and kissed her eyes, causing her to close them.

Zhu Xingyao sat in the car with a red face, she was wearing Jiang Tu's clothes, and Lao Liu pretended to be blind and drove the car back. When she went upstairs, Ding Yu came out of the room and took a look. He was stunned when he saw that she was wearing a full set of loose men's clothes.

Ding Yu looked at her: "Xingxing, why...are you wearing this?"

The concert the day after tomorrow, it is inevitable that Jiang Tu will meet her parents. Zhu Xingyao explained: "I had a hot pot dinner with his college classmates at Jiang Tu's house that night, and I accidentally got my clothes wet."

Ding Yu was silent for a moment, then sighed: "Go to bed early and get yourself in good shape."

Zhu Xingyao thought for a moment and whispered, "Mom, if you see Jiang Tu at the concert, don't tell him about that. It's all in the past. I'm fine now, and it's good to be with him."

The next afternoon, Jiang Tu handed dozens of VIP tickets to Lao Yuan. He said, "Give them to the R&D department. They have worked hard during this period. Those with families can take an extra ticket. Leave one for Du Yunfei so that he won't look for scalpers."

Old Yuan was stunned: "You booked the whole place?"

Jiang Tu looked calm: "No, I just bought a part of it."

Old Yuan smiled and said, "But the R&D department doesn't have that many people."

Jiang Tu raised his eyes and said, "Give the extra ones to Lin Jiayu."

Old Yuan was stunned, and happily took the ticket to distribute it. When his colleagues in the R&D department asked him about it, he smiled and explained: "Company benefits."

In the evening, Jiang Lu also received a few tickets. He got the ticket and asked Lin Jiayu uncertainly, "Did my brother really say he gave it to me?"

Lin Jiayu squinted at him: "Why do you look so guilty? What did you do?"

Jiang Lu waved his hands hurriedly: "No, no, absolutely not."

It's just that the live broadcast went wrong...

Shu Xian took the ticket and looked at it. She rarely went online and didn't know Zhu Xingyao. She just felt strange: "Are these really the tickets your brother gave me? When did he like to watch cello concerts? And he asked you to take me to see it."

"Mom." Jiang Lu hooked his arm around her shoulders and pointed at the photo on the ticket. "Do you think Zhu Xingyao is pretty?"

"Of course it's beautiful." Shu Xian said.

Jiang Lu threw a heavy bomb down lightly: "This is my brother's girlfriend."

Shu Xian was stunned for a moment. She looked at Jiang Lu in disbelief: "Don't try to make me happy. Is this girl a star? How is that possible!"

"Really? If you don't believe me, ask Lin Jiayu."

"You know Li Xixi, right?" Lin Jiayu smiled and took a box of biscuits from the table. The spokesperson for the biscuits was Li Xixi, and her photo was printed on it. Lin Jiayu pointed to the photo and said, "This is Li Xixi, she is a singer, and Zhu Xingyao is a cellist. They are good friends and Jiang Tu's high school classmates. Zhu Xingyao and Jiang Tu were deskmates and have known each other for many years. Now they are together."

Shu Xian covered her chest, unable to believe it: "Really?"

Lin Jiayu smiled and said, "Of course, why would I lie to you?"

There was a photo of Zhu Xingyao printed on the concert ticket. Shu Xian looked at the ticket again and again, her eyes reddened. She wiped her eyes and said, "Look at his personality. I always worry that he is too cold in this regard, only cares about work, and won't find a girlfriend in his thirties..."

Lin Jiayu whispered: "How is that possible? He must be extremely anxious..."

As for whether she is cold or not, you have to ask Zhu Xingyao, only she knows.

At 7:20 pm on November 8, at the Jiangcheng Central Theater, there were still 40 minutes before the concert officially started. Audiences entered the theater with their tickets one after another, and the theater was almost full. Xiao Kui led Jiang Tu to the backstage, and she said mysteriously, "Xingxing asked me to come. President Zhu and his wife are not backstage yet."

Jiang Tu walked into the dressing room. Zhu Xingyao was sitting in front of the makeup mirror in a red dress with delicate makeup. She looked up at him, spread her palms, and smiled: "Brother Tu, help me put on the necklace."

It was the one he gave her.

Jiang Tu lowered his eyes and walked behind her.

He looked at her in the mirror and leaned over to help her put the necklace on.

Xiao Kui stood nearby and couldn't help staring at him. She had never seen a man with such a calm expression, and there seemed to be strong emotions in his eyes.

Zhu Xingyao asked: "Are Xixi and Xu Xiangyang here?"

Jiang Tu concentrated on putting on the necklace and whispered, "I didn't see it when I came over."

Zhu Xingyao looked at Xiaokui in the mirror and said, "Xiaokui, give Xixi a call."

Ten minutes later, Jiang Tu returned to the VIP seats and saw Zhu Yunping and Ding Yu sitting in the middle. He took a deep breath and walked towards them, "Uncle, Auntie."

Zhu Yunping and Ding Yu hadn't seen Jiang Tu for several years. In Zhu Yunping's impression, Jiang Tu was still standing in the principal's office with a school uniform and a stern face. Ding Yu had only seen him once in the hospital, and his clothes were covered with Zhu Xingyao's blood.

The two were stunned for a moment, and it was difficult to connect the young boy at that time with the young man in formal attire in front of them.

Zhu Yunping came back to his senses and looked up at him: "Go back to your seat first, we can talk later if we have anything to say."

Jiang Tu nodded somewhat stiffly.

Li Xixi and Xu Xiangyang also arrived and sat with Lin Jiayu, Ding Xiang and others.

Jiang Tu walked over and sat next to Lao Yuan.

The concert officially begins.

Jiang Tu raised his head and looked at the woman who was slowly entering the stage holding up her skirt. A circular beam of light shone on the stage, and she was surrounded by a soft light, so beautiful that she didn't seem like a human being.

Zhu Xingyao took the cello handed to him and looked up at the VIP seats.

Almost all of them were familiar faces. Her eyes felt a little hot and her gaze was fixed on Jiang Tu. The two of them looked at each other across the dazzling stage and she raised the corners of her mouth.

Jiang Tu's chest was filled with emotion, and he even suspected that this might be just one of the dreams he had had over the years.
