Reserve the sun

The birds outside the window were woken up early by the rising sun, jumping happily on the branches, and called their friends to go out to find food.The newly grown crisp green leaves blocked the direct sunlight on Jiang Liu's left eye but revealed the air strike of the right eye, and the natural wake-up call made him wake up after a soft sigh.

Turning his head to avoid the glare of the sun, it took a while to see a handsome face only a few centimeters away from him.Jiang Liu traced Ji Yu's appearance with her eyes in surprise, even her breathing became much lighter, for fear of waking up the person next to her pillow.He moved his limbs that were still buried in the quilt, and only then realized that the two were sleeping in each other's arms.Ji Yu's arm was lying across his back, and his hands were tightly wrapped around Ji Yu's waist, and he only needed to get closer to hear the steady and slow heartbeat of the other party.

Coveting Ji Yu's rare closeness to him, Jiang Liu carefully moved his head into Ji Yu's arms, closed his eyes and enjoyed the beauty of the moment.Seemingly aware of the unsteadiness of the person in his arms, Ji Yu, who was still asleep, moved his arms to hug Jiang Liu even tighter, and even stretched out his hand to gently pat Jiang Liu's back, as if trying to coax him May the napping child sleep.

The flattered Jiang Liu remembered his nightmare last night and what he did after waking up.To be precise, he didn't really wake up after waking up, and was closer to a semi-hypnotic state.He lost his adult self in a half-dream and half-awake state, he was at a loss like a child, and acted like a child straightforwardly, holding on to Ji Yu.He guessed that probably because he didn't want to wake himself up again, Ji Yu chose to fall asleep on his own bed.

Restoring the truth, apart from being sorry, he was also a little pleasantly surprised. Ji Yu's expression in his memory obviously showed that he had discovered the difference in his state.But having discovered it and being willing to accept it are two different things. He was worried that his "abnormality" would make Ji Yu shrink back, but he guessed wrong. Ji Yu called hypermemory a gifted person.

Thinking of this, Jiang Liu couldn't help but bury her head deeper.

Hmm... Ji Yu groaned, feeling the pressure on his chest and slowly waking up.There was something in his arms that made his chin and neck itchy, and his mind wanted to push it away, but his body refused to listen, and he couldn't push it no matter what.

Opening his eyes in a daze, Ji Yu found that the 'heavy object' on his chest turned out to be Jiang Liu's furry head.As if he hadn't gotten out of the state of 'coaxing the child' last night, he raised his hand and patted the back of Jiang Liu's head and asked warmly, "What's wrong?"

Angered by Ji Yu's actions, Jiang Liu, who was bubbling with happiness, raised her mouth sweetly, and looked up at Ji Yu, "Are you awake?"

Ji Yu, who just woke up, was also a little dazed at seeing such a beautiful face, and it took him a while to realize that he had just slept with Jiang Liu in his arms all night.Thinking of Jiang Liu's aggrieved expression at night, he grabbed Jiang Liu's hand and asked nervously: "Well, how did you sleep, did you still have nightmares?"

"No, I slept well." With his chin resting on his chest, the movement of shaking his head brought his hair and neck skin into contact, and Jiang Liu successfully made Ji Yu blush.

"That's good." Ji Yu took the man out of his arms uncomfortably, and quickly sat up on the bed, "It's getting late, I have to get you breakfast, you should get up quickly."

Although Jiang Liu was a little bit reluctant, she sat up obediently and got dressed.He felt that when he was with Ji Yu, his calmness and self-restraint seemed to be completely offline, and he was only acting like a brat.I don't know if this is a good thing, at least this kind of behavior can easily arouse Ji Yu's sympathy, and he is more willing to take the initiative to get close to him.

Looking at Ji Yu's not-so-generous back, Jiang Liu has no reason to feel at ease. The meaning of this person to him may have gone far beyond the scope of a lover, and he can no longer let him go.

The two of them ate breakfast peacefully without talking, until the nurse dutifully collected the bowls and chopsticks again, and Ji Yu sat upright and spoke again.

"Jiang Liu, I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"

Wiping the oil stains from the corner of his mouth, Jiang Liu looked at Ji Yu with burning eyes, and only after a while did he say two words. "OK."

Ji Yu relaxed his expression, "The good news is that I told Wei Qiu about our matter, and he is very supportive. Besides, my parents don't seem to object."

"What did you say?" Jiang Liu stopped in mid-air with his hand that hadn't been completely put down, and his whole body, including the strands of hair on his head, expressed surprise.

"Although I didn't call my parents directly, it seems that they noticed after you visited my house. I also asked Wei Qiu about your situation, and I think there is nothing wrong with you being with me." Ji Yu slowly stated yesterday Looking at the content of the phone call between Wan and Wei Qiuna, Jiang Liu's surprise turned into excitement, "I even earned it."

The great news came too suddenly, Jiang Liu felt that his head, which had been so easy to reason for a moment, was instantly smashed into a paste. He stood up and walked from one end of the ward to the other end of the ward, beating each other with fists, After going back and forth a few times, he suddenly quickened his pace and approached Ji Yu, "You, why are you suddenly... just in case..."

His sentence was not complete, but Ji Yu still understood it. "You should be happy at this time, why are you always thinking about worrying?"

Knowing that Ji Yu came out to his relatives and friends openly, Jiang Liu worried about Ji Yu before he had time to be happy for himself.What if a good friend does not support and wants to break up with him?What if someone with malicious intentions wants to threaten him with this matter?What if the parents get sick in a fit of anger?What if the parents can't accept it and want to sever the relationship?

How could Ji Yu!How can it be!How dare!

"Since you dare, why don't I dare. Since we are lovers, we must advance and retreat together." Ji Yu said it with certainty and calmness, without even the slightest fluctuation in his tone.Jiang Liu wanted to say something more, but Ji Yu raised his hand to stop him, and continued on to the next topic, "The good news is over, and the next thing is the bad news. Sebastian sent me an email and invited me to have dinner with him tonight .”

"Can't go!" Jiang Liu's reaction was bigger than before, almost jumping up from the spot again to block Ji Yu's way.

Ji Yu put the computer in front of Jiang Liu, with a comforting tone in his mouth, "Jiang Liu, I know you are worried about me, but I'm not a child who can't protect itself. It's just a Sebastian. How about me?"

"No!" Jiang Liu said almost angrily, "I'll take care of his affairs, don't worry about it."

"Are you asking me to hide behind the door when my rival comes to show me my power?" Ji Yu took a deep breath, raised his head and stared at Jiang Liu, "I remember what I said just now, since you are a lover, you should Advance together and retreat together. Jiang Liu, are you distrusting me or yourself?"

"Sebastian came here for me, you were just involved. I don't want you to bother about this kind of thing." Jiang Liu explained impatiently, and the shadow reflected on the wall looked like a big cat with fur.

Ji Yu understood Jiang Liu's worry and maintenance, but he couldn't understand his almost stubborn and hysterical attitude at the moment. Considering the opponent's starting point and physical condition, Ji Yu almost used all his patience to not directly fall door left.

But at this moment, Ji Yu, who was completely excluded from the incident by Jiang Liu, was very angry. He stood up and turned his back to Jiang Liu. After taking a deep breath, his voice was still as cold as a knife, "What do you mean by rushing at you? Involved? Jiang Liu, if you can't even figure this out, I'm afraid we don't need to continue talking."

"What?" Jiang Liu had never heard Ji Yu speak to him in such a piercing voice, and she turned her head almost instantly, but what she saw was Ji Yu's back, as distant as the Berlin Wall.He panicked and wanted to reach out and grab Ji Yu's sleeve, "I just want to protect you! I have such ability! It is my responsibility and obligation to solve this matter!"

Ji Yu slowly pulled out his hand, and there was an indisputable exhaustion in his eyes when he turned his head. "Maybe what you and I understand of 'together' is not the same meaning, Jiang Liu, we probably need time to think about it." Ji Yu spoke slowly, "Calm down, think about it carefully"

Even if he was angry, Ji Yu handled it with care, the slight click of the door bolt was no different from usual, but the sound of footsteps going away made people understand his impatience at the moment.Uncharacteristically, he lost the modesty and politeness of a gentleman, ignored the polite nods and greetings of the nurses and doctors, and hid in the corner of the garden alone, lying on the grass with his eyes closed, trying to calm down his mind.

If you read a lot of books, it will inevitably make people fall in love with delusions. There are thousands of friendships in the world, and love is the most written in books.The advantage of writing in words is that it leaves space for readers to supplement themselves. After watching other people’s passionate love too many times, I imagine in my mind how my future partner is a person who suits my heart, and what kind of vigor and vitality there will be between the two. Love is a normal thing.

If two people can reach the same mind, even if they are enemies of the whole world, even if no one understands, even if they are separated in two places, as long as they love each other, they can stand side by side and face together. Realization in oneself is also unknown.

Most of the girlfriends in the past were gentle and caring types, and their excessive dependence and obedience to him made him no longer have illusions about mutual support, but now he has clearly met Jiang Liu, who is also a man with him, Why is this ideal still difficult to achieve?

Of course Ji Yu knows that Jiang Liu is very good, and he is also willing to believe that there is no other person in this world who can treat him wholeheartedly like Jiang Liu.The appearance last night made Ji Yu have a more intuitive understanding of his position in Jiang Liu's heart. It is a kind of trust and dependence without any defenses. Even losing in a dream is a pain he cannot bear.

But Ji Yu is not satisfied with just this, the love he expects is two people standing on the same position together.Even though Jiang Liu was the one who fell in love first, he is willing to make up for the imbalance in the future. When he is uncomfortable, he can be comforted by the other party, and he can protect the other party when he is weak. Isn't this what true love is like?

He excluded himself from the problems that the two of them should face together, saying it was his responsibility alone.What about Ji Yu?Is the meaning of his existence to be the object of the other party's protection?

But Jiang Liu didn't understand such a simple truth.

Left alone in the room, Jiang Liu watched the door of the ward slowly close, and when he heard the sound of the lock being locked in place, he felt a long-lost fear from the bottom of his heart.

When I was a child, after my parents died, I was left alone in the house, without eating or sleeping for three days.Knowing that both his parents had passed away, he hadn't cried all the time. He suddenly felt his stomach twitching with hunger. He wanted to stand up but his whole body was paralyzed and he could only let out a small cry from his throat.

In a daze, he naturally called out "Mom".

In the empty house, the doors and windows were closed tightly, and the faint sound was reflected from the surrounding walls to form a not-so-distinct echo, which he suddenly understood at that time.No matter how uncomfortable he is, how hard he calls out his parents, no one in this world will respond to him affectionately.

He really lost his parents forever.

Surrounded by loneliness, a fear of being abandoned swept the whole body, and from that moment on, the whole house resounded with heart-piercing cries.

The picture that naturally appeared in his mind made Jiang Liu froze in place and passively recalled the helplessness and panic at that time. Ji Yuyuan's back made him want to go forward and grab him, but when he returned to reality, he looked around and couldn't find him. to the trace of that person.

Rationally, Jiang Liu knew clearly that Ji Yu's words to calm down before he left were not evasions. Even if there were thousands of reasons why he wanted to go out of the room to look for him immediately, as long as he remembered Ji Yu's almost warning eyes when he left, he would just Obedience that can quiet down.Sitting exhausted on the hospital bed, Jiang Liu rubbed his temples, not knowing what was wrong with him.

From the moment he realized his feelings for Ji Yu, he was like a drowning man catching a duckweed that never sinks when he ran out of ammunition and food. Never wavered.He just wants to ensure Ji Yu's safety, so that he can live a more relaxed life, and bear his own karma. Why does such a responsible attitude become a mistake in front of Ji Yu?

Recalling the phrase Ji Yu said, "Advance together and retreat together", Jiang Liu doesn't understand, but he doesn't understand why it's strange to solve the problem by himself. Does everything have to be done by two people hand in hand to be considered successful? "Advance and retreat"?Jiang Liu disagrees with this. In his view, this is the same as the story of "how to kill a chicken with a butcher's knife", and it is a waste of resources.Of course, more importantly, he doesn't like the feeling that he can't control Sebastian's movements and let Ji Yu, who is more important than his own life, face him.Uneasy, fearful, he wished to tie Ji Yu by his side every day to be at ease, how dare he let him take risks in unknown places.

It's such a simple truth, why doesn't Ji Yu understand it?

Dragging his tired body back to Jiang Liu's apartment in the urban area, the vaguely familiar smell in the room showed signs of rekindling the anger that had finally calmed down.

Gee.

The disdainful voice from Ji Yu's lips shook the air in the room.The reason for his restlessness is that he finally discovered that Jiang Liu was already such a familiar existence to him, and that just the smell could arouse his emotions.

Throwing the coat that was wet in spots when it fell on the ground into the laundry basket, Ji Yu quickly locked himself in the bathroom with the changed clothes.When he came out again, the entanglement in his eyes and mental exhaustion were swept away, and Ji Yu was still that gentle and courteous gentleman from the East who was meticulous in his words and deeds.

Carefully flattening every fold of the shirt and fixing every strand of hair, Ji Yu felt in a trance that he was doing the same thing as those couples who were finishing their makeup and preparing to show off Xiao Qinger.

The handsome face in the mirror that had been serious all afternoon suddenly broke into a happy smile like a glacier unsealed, and Ji Yu's mood suddenly calmed down completely for some reason.

Reaching out and flicking the beautiful white porcelain mouthwash cup placed by the pool with his nails, Ji Yu decided to talk to Jiang Liu patiently after tonight.Now that you are sure you like it, then putting down your temper and having an open and honest talk is the real solution to the problem. Blindly giving in and endless cold wars will only make the foundation that is not even solid be withered.

Driving to the place arranged by Sebas in the email, Ji Yu looked at his watch and found that he was nearly half an hour ahead of schedule, and he parked the car in a small square on the ground calmly, and he even spent 1 minute facing the The rearview mirror in the car rearranged the neckline and hair.

And just when Sebas looked impatiently at the door six times, he finally saw the man's figure.

Spotless leather shoes, straight trousers, snow-white shirt and the long camel-colored woolen coat outside, even if he came to Hongmen Banquet, Ji Yu was still dressed in the gentle and harmless way—he was useless Black is a very aggressive and sharp color.Even if Sebastian didn't understand what it means to be "a man on the street is like jade, a gentleman is unparalleled in the world." 'At this moment, seeing Ji Yu can also understand its essence.

The leather shoes stepped on the thick carpet to isolate the footsteps that should be there. Ji Yu's speed made the back of the coat that grew to his calf lightly rise. If he was not born in modern times, he must be more suitable for the wide sleeves of Hanfu, and he can walk around freely It can bring a sense of immortality.

"It's been a long time, Mr. Sebastian." The corners of Ji Yu's mouth curled up, and his gentle London accent appeared unobtrusively, "I brought you a present, a nice bottle of wine." He raised his hand bag, pushed the wine towards Sebastian, with a tone like the spring breeze in March, "If you want, I think we can talk while drinking."

Seeing Ji Yu taking off his coat calmly, and sitting across from him in a leisurely and elegant manner, Sebastian was almost driven away by his relaxed attitude, thinking that he was holding an ordinary small reception at home as usual.Ji Yu in this state is extremely unfamiliar. The bottle of red wine that has been added to it has been opened by the waiter standing in the corner at Ji Yu's suggestion. The rich purple red makes Sebas's heart tremble slightly. , he twisted his hand under the table mercilessly on his leg, and the intense pain made him speak the first sentence after half a minute of silence.

"Mr. Ji, I really want to ask if you really understand your situation?" Due to lack of confidence, Sebastian couldn't really say a harsh word.

Ji Yu smiled softly, and those eyes as black as midnight fixed on looking over, "Oh? Besides being invited to have dinner with you, should I have any other roles?"

"You should be a weakling!" Sebastian said through gritted teeth, obviously it was his home game, how could Ji Yu, who is the prey, act so strong!

Shaking his head in disapproval, Ji Yu said: "You know, Mr. Sebastian, it is very unwise for you to forcefully arrange a character for me like this. Sooner or later, it will collapse."

Lifting the beautiful glass on the table that was no more than an arm's length away from him, Ji Yu smiled and raised it high and stretched it to the empty place, loosening his fingers.The moment the cup touched the ground, it shattered into countless pieces, shining like a pile of unpolished diamonds under the illumination of the crystal lamp.

"Look, just like this glass, it's so broken that no one can restore it to its original shape." Ji Yu's smile was still as gentle as it was at the beginning, and even the corners of his mouth turned up more realistically.It's just that in those black eyes, the scattered light is as hard and sharp as diamonds, "Besides, I have used a piece of human design for 30 years, but I have never been weak, Mr. Sebastian, it seems that you really don't know me very well."

"I've always preferred to be myself than to take on a role that's completely different from mine."

The moment he heard the glass shatter, Sebas was stunned, he was so overwhelmed by the man's aura from Ji Yu that he didn't dare to move.He suddenly understood the reason for his uneasiness. The person in front of him always seemed gentle and harmless, but he was the one who created the fishing boat after all, and he was also the only Jiang Liu who had been standing on the top of the pyramid of the Donald family and trampled himself under his feet. The recognized love object is a cute little friend who has been recognized by the patriarch Donald.

Such a Ji Yu, how could he be someone he could control at will?

Sebastian's self-confidence shattered into fine shards along with the glass, he seemed to have miscalculated his opponent...

As if he had already expected that Sebastian would not give his answer in time, Ji Yu picked up the cloth towel and wiped his hands, like an ancient nobleman, with just one look, the waiter consciously put another one on for him. There was only a clean goblet, and the broken one was swept into the trash can beside it.

The sommelier skillfully opened the seal of the wine, and the movement was skillful and light, only to hear a bang, and he pulled the cork out of the bottle.Sniffing the cork lightly, the sommelier confirmed the freshness of the wine and poured the red wine into Ji Yu's goblet that was ready for tasting.

"I think Mr. Sebastian needs some alcohol stimulation very much now, please pour him a glass too!" Ji Yu shook the glass in his hand, leaned close to the wine in the glass and sniffed lightly, his expression was intoxicated, but his lips were I don't even want to touch the wall of the cup.

Stared at by Ji Yu's eyes, Sebastian felt that he had become a desperate prey at this moment, and the fine hairs stood up from the surface of the skin one by one.Before he could make a sound to stop it, he heard the beautiful rhythm of the red wine pouring into the glass, and swallowed subconsciously, his lips trembling uncontrollably due to the crazy sense of crisis.

Ji Yu's attitude of staring at the red wine without concealing that he only smells it but does not drink it is a kind of demonstration in Sebastian's eyes. He thinks it is Ji Yu telling him clearly - he just added something to the wine. Unspeakable □□, what can you do to me?

"Why don't you drink?" Sebastian's lips were pale, and his voice was even weaker.When he met Ji Yu today, he just hoped to record the content of the two people's exchange and conversation as a threat to Ji Yu and Jiang Liu later. For the sake of video effect, he did not arrange his people in the room.Ji Yu may be able to stir up storms at will in China, but the UK is Sebastian's territory. The advantage of the home field makes him overestimate his probability of success.He thought he could make him angry, make him ashamed, make him surrender at his feet and promise that he would never get too close to Jiang Liu.But it was obvious that the person who was forced into a low profile was himself.

Lifting the cup in his hand, Ji Yu smiled and said, "I'm waiting for you to toast!"

The purple-red liquid was right in front of him, and the light refracted by the light through it looked strange and bloody on Ji Yu's fair face.Ji Yu's toast was like a devil's knock on the door. Sebastian wanted to hide, but there was nothing he could do.

With the last trace of arrogance, Sebastian responded: "No need, I don't want to drink."

"Oh, what a pity, you know, this is a good thing I took out of Jiang Liu's wine cabinet." The regretful look in Ji Yu's eyes did not seem to be fake, but such an answer would definitely make Sebastian feel more mocking More uncomfortable taste.

Putting the mouth of the cup into the gap between his lips, Ji Yu raised his neck and took a sip, his Adam's apple rolled up and down with the swallowing movement, "Well, it really is a good wine. The treasures that Jiang Liu can store in the wine cabinet are really beyond the reach of ordinary goods." He raised his glass to Sebastian again, "Are you still determined not to take a sip?"

Sebastian watched Ji Yu pour the wine into his mouth. It was not difficult to see that the other party was deliberately threatening him, but he had already lost his dignity. At this moment, his arrogance was like a discarded mask, which had been completely wiped out by Ji Yu. Yu stepped on his feet, even though he knew that it would be futile to do anything, Sebastian took up the cup and took a big gulp in his mouth.

"It seems that Jiang Liu's face is really big. I just say that it is his Tibetan wine, so you are willing to drink it." Before the other party put down the glass, Ji Yu quietly said such a sentence, which almost missed Seba. Si swallowed the trachea with a sip of wine.

Is this the reason why I drink now!It's not so natural to open your eyes and tell nonsense! "Mr. Ji drank it all, how could I not drink it!"

Ji Yu looked surprised, "No, no, Mr. Sebastian, you know I drove here alone today!" Sebastian's expression froze when he heard the word driving, and he looked at Ji Yu in disbelief. , and Ji Yu continued to live up to expectations: "Drinking and driving is illegal, how could I really swallow the wine!"

"You didn't drink?" Sebastian pointed his index finger at Ji Yu regardless of etiquette.

Nodding innocently, Ji Yu said, "Yes, I spit it out after tasting it. You should know that wine tasters use this method on many occasions."

"You..." Sebastian reached out to touch his neck, and he suddenly felt a sense of suffocation attacking him.

"I've always been a law-abiding person, Mr. Sebastian doesn't need to look at me so surprised." Ji Yu pointed at the tip of his nose, "Look at my law-abiding face!"

Standing up abruptly, Sebastian swept all the food in front of him to the ground, the tie around his neck had been torn off, and the whites of his eyes had begun to bleed.His voice was hoarse, and it seemed that every word could bring out a mouthful of blood, "Ji Yu, you actually dig a trap for me!"

Blinking his eyes, Ji Yu's expression could be called innocent at the moment. "What do you mean?"

"You lied to me to drink!" Sebastian dropped the wine glass in his hand to the ground, and the slightly thick liquid had extremely high surface tension, forming a thick layer of water stains on the floor.

"I didn't force you, and I didn't seduce you. You can stop drinking according to your own wishes, can't you?" Ji Yu still had time to stuff a mouthful of steak into his mouth, "Besides, it's just a glass of wine. You don't need to drive home by yourself, why make yourself so groggy?"

Sebastian strode his legs stiffly and walked to Ji Yu's side. He wanted to grab his collar and knock him to the ground with a punch, but before he touched Ji Yu's collar, he heard the sound The sound that became the alarm sounded again. "Mr. Sebastian, you have to think about it. There are at least 6 cameras in this house, and they are located at the top of my head and at the door. This is specially arranged for me by you. In this way, you Are you sure you want to do it again?"

Ji Yu wiped his mouth with a napkin, his voice was no longer so gentle, but as if it was covered with a thin layer of ice.Standing up from the chair lightly and gracefully, Ji Yu buttoned up his suit with one hand, then turned his head and smiled slightly, "Thank you, Mr. Sebastian, for the hospitality. This steak tastes good."

"You...Aren't you afraid that I will take this bottle of wine for a medical appraisal!" Sebastian was forced to take a step back involuntarily by Ji Yu's unsmiling eyes.

"Please go ahead, I think you will get an authoritative report that moderate drinking is good for your physical and mental health." Ji Yu shook his shoulders and smoothed out the folds of his coat, with an angry look on his face, "You seem to have made a mistake. I said that this wine comes from ginger. The fact that it was secretly taken out of the glass cabinet is true. I am not so bored as to buy a bottle of fake wine as a good one."

Of course, Ji Yu would not be so stupid as to tell Sebas that he poisoned the wine out of his own mouth. There are cameras everywhere here. He deliberately caused Sebastian to panic about the damage reversed. Although a gentleman has a big heart, he will not allow others to bully him.It should also be a tit for tat.

"Don't you dare to touch your conscience and say that you didn't poison the wine?!" Sebastian was obviously completely hysterical, and he said the word □□ out of his mouth without holding back. "You dare?"

Frowning and looking at each other like a monster, Ji Yu said: "Are you drunk? How could you have such an absurd idea? I know that there are not many people who come to my appointment, but there are definitely not many. I and you There is no past hatred and no old hatred, why do you want to poison you?" Ji Yu approached him, stretched out his hand to Sebastian's shoulder and patted him comfortingly, "Even if I take ten thousand steps back, I really feel sorry for you." Well-known reasons will harm you, but please trust my IQ, I will never use such a non-technical method."

"Mr. Sebastian, I received your invitation to come to the appointment temporarily. It's fine if you treat me strangely, but please don't plant your so-called unfounded delusions of murder on me." Ji Yu Bending down, he picked up the button that Sebas had torn off from the ground and stuffed it into his pocket nimbly, sighing, "Mr. Sebas, today's dinner is really regrettable."
