After traveling through the book, I conquered the male protagonist Long Aotian!
Chapter 639: Destined Love (1)
When he was very young, Su Ming heard that he once had a "fiancée".
Before he was born, the Su and Zhou families had established a solid and mutually beneficial partnership in the business field, which led to increasingly close relations between the two families.
In order to further strengthen this bond, the two families came up with the idea of strengthening the relationship through marriage.
Coincidentally, the mistresses of the Su and Zhou families were both pregnant. This coincidence made the marriage plan of the two families more natural.
The two parties hit it off and decided to arrange a "child marriage" for the two unborn lives, and agreed that if the children were a boy and a girl, the marriage would take effect immediately.
This practice of pre-arranged marriages is quite common in large families.
After all, in these prominent families, marriage is often not determined by personal will, but is more often decided by the elders after weighing the pros and cons.
They are more inclined to choose marriage partners who can bring family benefits or consolidate power. Therefore, it has become a norm to conclude marriage contracts through the leadership of parents.
However, disappointingly, the marriage that the two families had been looking forward to did not take place.
The two children who were highly expected were both boys. This result made the original marriage impossible and both families had to cancel the arrangement with regret.
As time went by, cracks gradually appeared in the business cooperation between the Su family and the Zhou family, and the former alliance relationship also quietly changed.
The termination of the cooperation was accompanied by the breakdown of the relationship between the two companies. The accusations and misunderstandings between them were like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins and could not be controlled.
As for the reasons for the termination of the cooperation, the two families each held their own opinions and shirked responsibility to each other, as if they were caught in an endless debate, and the truth became confusing and elusive.
When Su Ming learned that the child marriage was cancelled because both parties were boys, he just smiled indifferently and did not take it to heart.
In his opinion, such a marriage that was hastily concluded without confirming the gender was full of uncertainty, and such a result was reasonable.
Similarly, Zhou Yue had only heard a little about this matter. Given that the relationship between the Zhou family and the Su family was not harmonious, he did not delve into the matter and even chose to avoid it intentionally or unintentionally, not wanting to get too entangled in this marriage that had never really started.
Afterwards, time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye they reached school age. After undergoing the appraisal of their spiritual roots, they embarked on the road of studying and entered the academy, where their main task was to learn some basic knowledge of cultivating immortals.
At that time, Zhou Yue was identified as having a single-attribute earth spiritual root. You know, a person with a single-attribute spiritual root is a well-deserved genius. Such a talent is simply a gift from heaven. If you don't embark on the path of cultivation, it would be a waste of heaven's gift.
When everyone in the Zhou family learned of this shocking news, they were immediately overjoyed and the entire Zhou family was immersed in joy and excitement.
Afterwards, the Zhou family launched a grand celebration that lasted for two whole days.
The head of the family was even more delighted. He personally rewarded Zhou Yue with a precious spiritual weapon, and in front of the whole family, solemnly announced that he would focus on training Zhou Yue and provide him with the best resources and guidance.
On the Su family side, Su Ming has dual spiritual roots. This aptitude is not bad, and he is also very suitable for cultivating immortals.
However, when the Su family heard that their mortal enemy, the Zhou family, had loudly announced that the Zhou family had identified a genius with a single spiritual root, they couldn't help but feel an indescribable discomfort in their hearts.
That feeling was like being shrouded by a dark cloud that could not be shaken off. The atmosphere in the entire Su family suddenly became depressing during those days, and the family was filled with a gloomy atmosphere.
Su Ming didn't care at all about the depressing atmosphere in the Su family during those days. He was always free and easy-going, and he was very open-minded. No matter what he faced, he could always maintain a calm attitude.
In his heart, he has never had any lofty ambitions, nor is he keen on pursuing those illusory glory and status.
Completely different from his brothers, each of them was racking their brains to fight for the position of family head and was full of covetousness for the position.
For power and interests, they are eyeing each other covetously and fighting openly and secretly, like a group of hungry beasts fighting for a piece of tempting fat meat.
As for Su Ming, he had no interest in these fights, and he had no intention of getting involved in them.
He knew very well in his mind that as long as he did not threaten other brothers and always maintained a non-competitive attitude, even if other members of the Su family inherited the position of head of the family in the end, they would not do anything to him.
As for his mother, there was even less to worry about. His mother's family was powerful and definitely not a soft persimmon that could be bullied. They didn't dare to do anything to his mother easily, after all, his mother's family was not just for show.
Because of this, Su Ming always behaved indifferently. Whether it was precious treasures or enviable honors, he did not fight for them. He always lived with an open-minded attitude that if he had it, he would have it, and if he didn't, it would be fine.
Until... he entered the school on the first day, his eyes inadvertently swept across the crowd, and suddenly, a figure came into his sight.
At that moment, time seemed to stand still and everything around him became blurry. Only that figure was clearly imprinted in his eyes.
It is no exaggeration to say that this was love at first sight. At this moment, he knew nothing about this person, not knowing her name, family background, or any other information, and he even had no idea about her personality and temperament.
However, even in such a completely unfamiliar state, an inexplicable throbbing quietly grew in his heart.
His heart began to beat violently. The strong rhythm was like the beating of a war drum or surging waves hitting the rocks, as if it would explode at any time.
An indescribable feeling overwhelmed him like a tide, immersing him in it, unable to extricate himself.
Su Ming, as a member of the Su family, naturally had many people trying to get close to him because of his family's status and power.
Those people were either fawning or flattering, but Su Ming completely ignored them and simply ignored their existence.
His eyes were fixed on the man who made him fall in love at first sight, and he ran straight towards him without hesitation.
At this time, the person he had been thinking about was still talking to someone else. Su Ming's heart moved, and he pretended to be weak.
He stretched out his fingers and gently tugged at the edge of the man's clothes, his movements so gentle as if he was afraid of disturbing something precious.
This small action successfully drew the man's attention completely to him.
I have to admit, Su Ming's pitiful face is indeed very deceptive.
The delicate facial features, slightly drooped eyes, and a pitiful expression quickly attracted Zhou Yue's attention.
Zhou Yue looked at the weak boy in front of him, and a strong desire to protect him inexplicably surged in his heart.
Su Ming and Zhou Yue started talking, as if they were old friends who had known each other for a long time. Their words were interesting and the atmosphere was harmonious. The two of them had a great time talking to each other and were completely immersed in each other's world.
It was not until the teacher called out her name that Su Ming realized that the person's name was Zhou Yue. She was the one he had been engaged to as a child but had called off the engagement because of the same gender, and she was also the "little fiancée" he had never met but was famous for.
Su Ming felt as if he was favored by the god of fate, and a wonderful fate fell on him like bright starlight.
No wonder he liked Zhou Yue so much, it turned out that the person in front of him was his destined wife.
The night we returned was as cool as water and everything was silent.
Su Ming lay on his bed, Zhou Yue's figure constantly appearing in his mind.
That handsome face, bright eyes, and every expression and every word when talking to him lingered in his heart like a spell.
Gradually, Su Ming fell into a deep sleep. In the dream, the scene became extremely erotic. He pressed Zhou Yue tightly under him, and their bodies fit tightly together...
When the first ray of sunlight of the next day shone into the room, Su Ming woke up slowly. Noticing the ambiguous traces under him, he was startled at first, and then couldn't help showing a shy smile.
This was his first time having an erotic dream... and, for the first time, he had such a strong desire to fight for her. He thought, he must get Zhou Yue.
It’s a pity that Zhou Yue was too frank when interacting with Su Ming.
His words and actions don't seem like a gay man at all. He is definitely the type of person who likes girls.
Moreover, Zhou Yue always addressed Su Ming as brother. That word "brother" was like a sharp thorn piercing Su Ming's heart, making him very unhappy.
This is simply a true portrayal of "I treat you as my wife, and you treat me as your brother." Whenever Su Ming thought of this, he would feel an indescribable helplessness and loss in his heart.
During the day, Su Ming had to suppress his inner emotions and get along with Zhou Yue as a brother. They talked about everything together, discussed knowledge together, and experienced various things together.
However, every night, Su Ming always dreamed of Zhou Yue. In his dreams, they were close and intimate, like the most loving couple in the world. Those dreams were so real and beautiful that Su Ming was intoxicated and couldn't extricate himself.
But every time he woke up in the morning and faced Zhou Yue's call of "brother" in reality, Su Ming's heart was filled with contradictions and pain.
This repeated experience made him mentally unstable. He often felt confused and could not distinguish between dreams and reality, and he did not know how to deal with this special feeling.
Half a year later, time passed quietly, and the emotions in Su Ming's heart became increasingly difficult to contain like a surging tide.
He struggled and struggled countless times during the long days, and finally he couldn't bear it anymore. He seemed to have made some important and decisive decision.
That day, Su Ming mustered up the courage to ask Zhou Yue to meet him alone in the evening. When he said "I have something to say to him", his eyes were a little evasive.
But when Zhou Yue looked at Su Ming's expression, he didn't think too much about it. He just thought that there was an important matter to discuss between brothers, so he readily agreed.
When night falls, the stars twinkle and the quiet grove is filled with a mysterious atmosphere.
Su Ming arrived here early. He was nervous and excited, and his heart was pounding as if it was about to jump out of his throat.
Finally, Zhou Yue's figure appeared in his sight. At that moment, Su Ming's mind went blank, and all his rationality was overwhelmed by emotions.
He rushed forward regardless of everything, hugged Zhou Yue tightly, and then kissed her deeply in Zhou Yue's astonished eyes.
Zhou Yue was stunned at the time. He had never expected something like this to happen. Subconsciously, he pushed Su Ming away, his eyes filled with shock and confusion.
However, at the moment he pushed Su Ming away, he saw Su Ming crying. Su Ming's tears kept falling like pearls from a broken string, and the cry made people tremble, as if it could penetrate one's soul.
Su Ming kept saying sorry, sincerely apologizing to Zhou Yue. His voice was trembling, full of affection and helplessness: "I'm sorry, but I really like you too much... I really can't control my feelings."
Zhou Yue suddenly became panicked. He had never seen Su Ming so sad.
At that moment, the only thing on his mind was to stop him from crying.
So, he hugged Su Ming again without hesitation, wanting to comfort him.
However, Su Ming pushed him away again.
Su Ming's eyes were filled with pain and struggle. He choked and said, "Don't be so gentle. If you continue like this, I will think too much..."
After saying that, Su Ming ran away crying, leaving Zhou Yue standing alone in the grove, his heart full of mixed emotions.
The next day, Su Ming began to deliberately keep a distance from Zhou Yue, his eyes full of indifference and alienation, as if there had never been any intimate interaction between them.
Su Ming no longer paid attention to Zhou Yue. Even when Zhou Yue took the initiative to talk to him, he just glanced at him lightly and quickly looked away, as if Zhou Yue was just an insignificant stranger.
Zhou Yue, since that night, has always dreamed of that crying face. Su Ming's tears were like a brand deeply engraved in his mind, making him feel inexplicably guilty.
He kept reflecting on his behavior at that time. Why did he subconsciously push Su Ming away? His heart was full of contradictions and confusion.
What was going on? It was Su Ming who confessed his love, and it was also Su Ming who ran away and distanced himself from the relationship.
Zhou Yue couldn't understand Su Ming's thoughts, but he couldn't get rid of the guilt in his heart.
For the entire next month, Zhou Yue was listless, completely lacking his former vitality and vigor.
He had no interest in anything, and neither studying nor practicing could keep him focused.
His heart seemed to be weighed down by a heavy stone, making it hard for him to breathe.
Zhou Yue was immersed in his own thoughts all day long, unable to extricate himself, and had absolutely no motivation to do anything.
