? ? There was a "pop", and then bits and pieces of firecrackers exploded, probably damp, and there was a rattling sound.Lu Chunjiang rubbed his eyes, his phone kept buzzing and vibrating, friends, colleagues, parents of students... were overwhelmed with New Year's greeting messages, and reminded them to grab red envelopes one after another.Lu Chunjiang lay down and called his aunt, and his cousin answered, "Quanzi? Happy Chinese New Year."

"Brother, happy Chinese New Year." Lu Chunjiang didn't go to bed until after two o'clock at night. At this moment, the morning light was twilight, and dark gray clouds weighed heavily on the sky. "Where's my aunt?"

Aunt Bian Meiqing took it over, and the audio behind her was noisy, with the sound of a baby crying. "Auntie, Happy New Year." Lu Chunjiang asked, "Is Doudou crying?"

Doudou is the son of his cousin Qi Feng, who is only eight months old, "Oh, I'm not happy, I haven't slept enough." Bian Meiqing mentioned that her grandson couldn't keep his mouth shut, "Don't let him sleep, or he will make trouble at night—you How is it? Chinese New Year at home?"

"Okay."

"Then who? It doesn't bother you much, does it?"

Bian Meiqing didn't like Lu Xi very much. She always felt that her nephew had suffered a great loss. For a wild child who didn't know where she came from, she volunteered too little, and in the end she could only go to an ordinary university.But that wild child doesn't know how to repay his kindness, and doesn't understand things.But how can Lu Xi touch Lu Chunjiang?At best he doesn't talk.Lu Chunjiang secretly pricked up his ears. There was no movement in the next room, and Lu Xi might still be asleep.When he was sleeping at two o'clock, Lucy was playing on his ipad, hanging up his earphones, and chatting with someone—it must be his Shanghai boyfriend.

"He's fine, he's back...and helping me with my work." Lu Chunjiang told a harmless little lie. "Auntie, I'll see you in a few days."

"Okay, okay, come here on the fifth day! I'll cook for you."

The fifth day of the lunar new year...Lu Xi is going back to Shanghai, and Lu Chunjiang will definitely send him to the high-speed rail station.He hesitated for a moment, but didn't say anything dead.He babbled some auspicious words for the New Year, and then paid New Year greetings to his uncle Bian Chongshan.Bian Chongshan spoke ambiguously, probably because he hadn't sobered up. When he received a call from his nephew, his voice involuntarily became louder, "Oh, Quanzi! Happy Chinese New Year!"

"Uncle," Lu Chunjiang laughed, "How much did you drink yesterday?"

"I didn't drink much, I really didn't drink much. Your concubine is looking at me, but she doesn't dare to drink too much." Having said that, it must be delicious.Lu Chunjiang said some blessings such as "good health", and Bian Zhongshan said, "Thank you Quanzi! Hey, what, Panpan is back, right?"

Bian Chongshan's attitude towards Lu Xi is not as bad as his sister's. He thinks it's a good thing to raise him if he can.As for Lu Xi's ignorance, it's because of his bad genes, which doesn't prevent Lu Chunjiang from being a good boy.He even used adopting his younger brother as a selling point, looking for Lu Chunjiang's partner everywhere.Such a man is reliable, and the advertisement is like this, making Lu Chunjiang dumbfounded.

"Well, I'm back."

"Oh, come and see me if you have nothing to do! Look at you, you're at work, you're busy, and you just came to see your uncle—"

"In the past, I'll be there in a few days."

"Everyone goes to your aunt's place on the fifth day of the lunar new year, so you should go too?"

"Well, let me see."

Lu Chunjiang put down his phone, feeling hungry.On the morning of the first day of the new year, dumplings were made as usual. Although Lu Xi was by his side, he also lied that Lu Xi would help him with the work, but it was all lies and could not be true.Lu Chunjiang got up and changed into new clothes. It is not popular to come to pay New Year's greetings now, and he doesn't like going out to give New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year.The new clothes can only be shown to Lu Xi, but Lu Xi probably doesn't bother to look at him.

At the beginning, he was too simple and rude. Lu Chunjiang rolled the dumpling wrapper and reflected that he shouldn't hit Lu Xi——he and Lu Xi have been together for 13 years since they were young, and they have never touched Lu Xi.That slap stunned even himself, it was so heavy that Lucy froze on the bed, frightened and motionless.

Did he apologize afterwards?Lu Chunjiang couldn't confirm.That memory was very vague, sticky, like a translucent glue.When he was a child, he often picked the glue on the edge of his mother's counter, called glass glue, and played with it in his hands.That memory is like glass glue, squeezed and squeezed, it suddenly shattered...it can't be put together again.He could only call an ambulance for sure, take Lu Xi to the hospital, get an injection, get a water drop, and stay in isolation for a day.Then Lu Chunjiang asked a doctor to perform an operation on Lu Xi, and implanted inhibitors under the skin. He was worried that his younger brother would suddenly go into heat outside, so he hugged an alpha in a daze to beg for sex... He couldn't imagine that scene.

On the day after he was discharged from the hospital, Lu Chunjiang bought Lu Xi his favorite KFC in order to make amends.After their parents passed away, they couldn't afford expensive things, so they had to keep the little pension for school and life.When Lu Xi passed the exam, Lu Chunjiang bought him a KFC cone or milkshake.Lu Xi licked the sweetness, smiling very happily every time.

"You...I know you're not feeling well, eat something." Lu Chunjiang was sweating all over, he lowered his eyes, and didn't look directly at his brother's haggard face, "Strawberry milkshake, and those chicken nuggets."

Lu Xi's hand was quietly placed on the towel quilt, his fingers were white and thin, "We...we are brothers," Lu Chunjiang said with difficulty, "I know, you just weren't careful. I wasn't careful either, this matter It’s mainly my fault, I didn’t tell you clearly...to be clear.” He laughed jerky, “Hehe, when people get confused, you have to remember to take your medicine on time. Otherwise, you are alone in Shanghai, so far away, I will worry about you. That... you, you are also an adult, an adult," Lu Chunjiang tremblingly stretched out his hand, trying to mess up Lu Xi's hair, Lu Xi tilted his head, and he sighed in frustration, "It's time to find someone Friends, talk about love. Don't stay at home all the time, what are you doing at home... Look, I have to find you a sister-in-law for your brother. I want to find someone who can take care of the family and take care of you after marriage. You are in school , you can miss it for as long as you want, we support you..."

Lucy didn't eat the milkshake, it melted away, a bowl of sticky liquid, half floating and half sinking strawberries in syrup.Lu Chunjiang thought that Lu Xi was shy and embarrassed - anyone who made such a mistake would be embarrassed, even himself.He almost, almost lost his mind and wanted to mark his brother!Lu Xi's smooth and soft body was extremely hot in his arms, and Lu Chunjiang remembered that feeling of touch.He lost his first kiss...and his brother!It's ridiculous.Lu Chunjiang threw away the milkshake. He planned to adjust his mental state and have a deep chat with Lu Xi, but Lu Xi returned to school early the next day, which caught him off guard.

"Are you going back?" This memory is clear.Lu Xi dragged the box, his thin body seemed to be shaking, and it seemed like a hallucination, he said, "I have something to do at school, I'll go back first."

Lu Chunjiang was at a loss, "Can't we leave tomorrow?"

Lucy shook her head, her eyes were red.

"In such a hurry? I haven't made you a bun yet..."

It was Bian Meiying who told Lu Chunjiang that the noodles were out of the way.My mother smiled and said, "When you grow up, you have to eat a bun before leaving home. This is the rule."

But Lucy wasn't in the mood to follow the rules anymore. He waved his hand, unscrewed the door, slammed it shut, and went downstairs...all in one go.Lu Chunjiang didn't chase after him, he stood on the balcony and looked down.The summer sun poured down like a fire, and Lucy's back was enveloped in the fire, gradually melting, disappearing, disappearing.
