silent you

Gu Xia went in, but Jiang Pei was still standing outside.

Except for Jiang Pei and his mother, there was no one in the hall, because there was one less person, and it was a little more cold out of thin air.

Jiang Pei didn't step forward or speak, but just stood there, looking at his mother quietly.

Jiang's mother was not as calm as he was, and she couldn't maintain the composure she should have at her age.

She stepped forward in a hurry, her eyes were anxious and hopeful, her five fingers firmly grasped Jiang Pei's arm, as if a drowning man grasped the last straw to save his life, and said in an urgent tone: "It's him, right? It's him Right, to harm you..."

"No," Jiang Pei frowned slightly, and interrupted in a deep voice: "He is just a classmate of mine and has nothing to do with him. You think too much..."

Jiang's mother interrupted in a low voice: "I didn't think too much! You pretend I can't see it! The way he looks at you, the way he looks at you..."

Jiang's mother recalled the way the boy looked at Jiang Pei, trembling in her heart, and her voice could not help but beseeching and soft: "Pei Pei, Pei Pei, you are a good boy, let's change back, mother knows It's your fault, he seduced you, as long as you..."

Jiang Pei frowned even tighter - the way Gu Xia looked at him?how is it like?Is it different from others?

Seeing that he was silent, Jiang's mother grabbed his arm even harder. The specially maintained and carefully crafted manicure pinched into the flesh of Jiang Pei's forearm through the school uniform, causing pain.

Jiang's mother didn't realize it, she stared at Jiang Pei's face closely, but her expression seemed to be looking at another person through him, and said softly: "As long as you are still a good child of mother, mother can treat everything as a good thing." It didn't happen... okay, baby?"

Jiang Pei's gaze passed over Jiang's mother's head, and quietly fell on the void not far away. His tone was extremely indifferent. If he only listened to his voice at this moment, he would not be able to tell that he was talking to his mother.

"Your son's sexual orientation is not harmed by anyone. He was born like this. He likes men, or he is gay. No matter how unwilling you are to accept this fact, there is no way to change it. Blaming others innocently is even more unreasonable."

Mother Jiang's face was pale, and she looked up at him blankly, as if she had never known him before, and the fingers pinching his arm gradually loosened.

Jiang Pei's eyes were unusually calm.

Mother Jiang's eyes gradually despaired, her body trembled, and a layer of tears slowly appeared in her eyes, blurring the delicate eyeliner she had carefully drawn.

She shed a tear and murmured softly: "You, how can you say that about mother...how can you..."

Jiang Pei's tone was calm: "I'm just telling the truth."

Jiang's mother acted as if she hadn't heard it, she lost control of her emotions and said, "Pei Pei! How can you say that to mother! Do you know, do you know how much I have paid for you and this family—"

Jiang Pei felt a little numb in his heart, and interrupted again with a weary voice: "So, you have to disregard my will and send me to be treated, even if I told you that your son is not sick at all?"

He had already tried it.

Tried it when he found out his mom was going to send him for shock therapy.

He spent a whole night collecting, selecting, and deleting all the useful news, videos, and materials related to homosexuality and electroshock therapy, and then put these things clearly in front of his mother the next day, Tried to tell his mother.

He's normal, he's not sick.

And his beautiful and weak mother held the mouse down with trembling fingers, covered her mouth with the other hand, watched everything with tears streaming down her face, stared at the computer screen without speaking.

Jiang Pei, who had been sitting beside her, asked her.

Even so, do you want me to go?

His mother immediately turned her head like a frightened bird, her eyes were terrified and helpless, and a line of tears welled up in the red eyes.

Jiang Pei softened his tone and asked again in a low and slow voice.

Even so, do you want me to go?

His mother trembled and murmured.

After a while, the voice uttered a word weakly.

"……want."

Jiang Pei laughed on the spot.

Then he stood up with a cold face, smashed the computer, and slammed the door out.

Jiang's mother softened her tone and said anxiously, "That incident was my mother's fault...it was my mother's confusion...but you have to trust my mother! Mom won't hurt you..."

Jiang Pei didn't want to hear her say this anymore, rubbed the center of his brows with his long fingers, and changed the subject: "Are you here to see my performance tonight?"

Jiang's mother was stunned, her smile was a bit forced, and she said weakly: "Yes... your performance is wonderful... Mom is very pleased..."

Jiang Pei's heart was extremely cold, but he smiled on his face. He nodded and said in a serious manner: "That's right, the class teacher praised me for my talent in acting—Mom, what do you think?"

Mother Jiang was speechless for a moment.

Even if she doesn't care about her son anymore, but this son is her own after all, and she has raised it herself for several years, so she can naturally tell that something is wrong——

"Pei Pei..."

Jiang Pei interrupted coldly for the third time: "No need to apologize, I don't need it, I'll go in first, you can stay anywhere and wait for me to go back together, or you can just go back right now—"

After finishing speaking, he directly passed Mama Jiang and strode forward.

"Your father has another woman—that woman is pregnant—" Jiang's mother choked up behind him and shouted.

Jiang Pei stopped without turning his head. He looked straight ahead and said calmly, "It won't happen sooner or later."

In fact, when he was a sophomore in high school, he saw with his own eyes the man he had admired and admired since he was a child, panting heavily, throwing a naked strange woman under him, moving back and forth eagerly and losing his image, just like a man A wild beast with lustful hair.

He still clearly remembers the rough panting and groaning that came out of the two of them.

and--

Jiang Pei bent his lips sarcastically: "Aren't you the same?"

Mother Jiang took two steps back in disbelief, the sharp high-heeled shoes made a crisp and loud sound on the smooth and hard ground, her body was shaking, and she lost her voice: "What did you say—"

Jiang Pei thought indifferently, what's the difference, who is more innocent than the other.

Mother Jiang took two steps forward suddenly, her voice changed when she shouted, her eyes were red, and her body was shaking: "Say it again——Jiang Pei——I won't allow you to say that about mother—"

Jiang Pei turned around and stared at her, his eyes were deep, and the deep chill could be vaguely condensed in them, he said softly: "Isn't it?"

Mother Jiang's face was pale, she reached out and grabbed his shirt tightly, her hair was slightly messy, her voice was hoarse, and she said incoherently: "You knew it a long time ago, right! You knew it a long time ago!"

Jiang Pei smiled without emotion, lowered his eyes and said quietly: "Are you talking about yourself, or my dad?"

"If it were my dad, I would have known about it a long time ago, but you didn't arrive any later than him. The only thing that was better was that your clothes were still neat at that time—I guess it was after the fact?"

Jiang Pei thought, he is really crazy.

He didn't care about the school auditorium or his biological mother.

In the whole three years, he has never been as happy as he is now, nor has he been in pain like this.

Gouging out the heart and scraping the bones, tearing the body in half, probably didn't hurt so much.

But he was finally free.

Mother Jiang took a step back, and took another step back, looking at Jiang Pei like a monster. Her mind was so confused that she couldn't even think, so she could only keep calling in a low voice: "Peipei...Peipei ..."

Jiang Pei watched coldly, and after a while, he finally said: "If you want a divorce, I will support you and stand by your side."

Jiang's mother raised her head suddenly, cold tears slid down her cheeks, she stared blankly at Jiang Pei, this son who made her worry-free and proud since childhood, had grown so tall before she knew it.

She lowered her head slowly, shook her head weakly, and her tone was extremely weak, as if she couldn't find a place to settle down: "No, I won't get a divorce, absolutely not..."

Jiang Pei seemed to have expected her reaction a long time ago, closed his eyes, and said in a calm tone: "Then I wish you...you can take care of yourself."

Between mother and son, they didn't know whether to blame Jiang's mother's indifference or Jiang Pei's ruthlessness.

Jiang Pei forgot how this conversation ended.

I just remember that when he turned to leave, his mother asked him one last question——

"You and that boy, really—"

Jiang Pei raised his eyes slightly, but thought dispensably, his mother still cared a little about him after all, right?

Even this little concern is not out of love, but out of fear of "the son may fall in love early, and the partner is still a boy".

Jiang Pei replied with eight words in a cold tone.

"It's just a classmate, it has nothing to do with him."

The overlapping sound waves on and off the stage resounded throughout the auditorium.

Jiang Pei stared fixedly at Gu Xia who was sitting in his seat.

The boy raised his head like a soft and lingering vine.

He was shocked.

His eyes are unpredictable.

Discovered that there was something he had been ignoring all along.

Suddenly it became clear.

Seeing Jiang Pei standing still, Gu Xia tilted his head in confusion, reached out and tugged at the corner of his clothes in doubt—what's the matter?

Jiang Pei's eyes flickered slightly, he took a step back calmly, and said in a deep voice: "The party is over, you can go."

The audience applauded thunderously, and the male and female hosts came to the stage, led the performers to call off the curtain, and made a final concluding speech.

Gu Xia smiled suddenly, his eyes were like water.

——Do you need to be so lazy?

Jiang Pei didn't look back unnaturally, and coughed lightly.

But he didn't sit down in his seat, but stood and waited for the curtain to end.

Gu Xia smiled unabated. After a few minutes, everyone got up, raised her hand to tidy up her clothes, and walked out.

Jiang Pei was about to turn around and walk out together.

The lights on the stage suddenly went dark.

There was an exclamation from the audience.

Therefore, the step that Xia just took was too late to take back, and he didn't know where to fall in the darkness. After hesitating for a moment, his body was pushed from behind, his calf hit the seat next to him hard, and his shoes even tripped , his figure was unstable, and he fell straight into Jiang Pei's arms.

Jiang Pei caught him steadily, wrapped his strong and slender arms around his waist, and said in a cold voice in the dark: "Walk so slowly and still fall."

Several unidentified beams of light shot from the top of his head, just illuminating half of Gu Xia's exposed face.

The skin is fair and delicate, and the eyes are as soft as spring water.

Gu Xia was so painful that her eyes were full of tears, she lay softly on Jiang Pei's firm chest, her black and soft hair was slightly messy.

The expression in the raised eyes was ignorant and aggrieved.

Jiang Pei frowned: "Where did you hit?"

Gu Xia clenched the front of his clothes tightly with her fingers, raised her arms to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, the tails of her slender eyes were slightly red.

Jiang Pei's expression changed, and he said in a deep voice, "Very serious?"

Gu Xia shook her head, reluctant to get up from his arms.

The lights on the stage began to recover one by one from the place farthest from them, and the noise around them gradually decreased.

Jiang Pei let go of Gu Xia before the light hit them.

When Gu Xia waited for Jiang Pei to turn around and walk forward again, in the bright light, he reached out and quietly held the corner of his clothes.

Jiang Pei's footsteps did not stop, and he did not look back from the beginning to the end.
