Seeing him standing still with his head buried, Lu Yun went straight past him and walked towards his room.Lu Xijia was stunned for a second, then suddenly remembered the sheet she had stuffed under the bed, quickened her pace to follow, and stretched out her hand to grab Lu Yun's arm.

When his fingertips collided with the opponent's forearm, he seemed to wake up suddenly, and shook Lu Yun's arm away.Then he turned around and stood in front of the other party without any trace, "I'll go in and wear it myself."

When he said this, he never looked directly at Lu Yun.In other words, ever since he saw Lu Yun in the corridor, he had been avoiding meeting Lu Yun's sight.

Lu Yun noticed the subtle changes in his eyes, and the furrow between his brows deepened even more, and he commanded in a deep voice: "Raise your head."

Lu Xijia didn't make any movements, her eyes seemed to be glued to the carpet in the corridor, her mouth was tightly pursed, as if she had no intention to speak, and her face was full of refusal to cooperate.

Lu Yun reached out and pinched his chin, and raised his face slightly, "Look at me."

Lu Xijia drooped her eyes and stared closely at the tip of her nose, but her eyelids trembled uncontrollably.Lu Yun took his tense expression into his eyes, and paused slightly when he was about to speak.

Then he raised his other hand and placed it on the top of his hair. With his slender fingers slightly spread, he slowly straightened his short hair, which was messed up in sleep, and slightly curled his lips to remind him, "I don't look well."

Lu Xijia suddenly raised her head and looked at him with complicated emotions.Sensing his gaze, Lu Yun followed him unhurriedly.Lu Xijia quickly avoided his gaze, lowering her eyes to suppress the emotions in her eyes.

Finally realizing that the two were a little close, Lu Yun withdrew his hands and took a step back without any trace, like a normal brother asking a question, raised his brows slightly and asked, "What's the matter?"

Lu Xijia was silent for a long time, and then, as if she had finally woken up from last night's dream, she pursed the corners of her lips following the other person's words, her eyes flickered slightly but she no longer evaded to look at Lu Yun, "Brother, I want to talk to Lu Yun tonight. Lin Xi and the others went out to play."

Lu Yun retracted his gaze and wrote lightly: "Go, don't come back too late."

Lu Xijia responded happily, turned around and opened the door to enter her room.He waited until the people outside the door left, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, locked the door neatly with his hand movements, went to the bedside and put down the water glass in his hand, fell face down into the soft big bed, irritated and annoyed Roll from head to foot of the bed.

In the end, she sat up from the bed with her slightly disheveled short hair, and got rid of the irritability and annoyance, feeling inexplicably sad in her heart.

Even in the past few months, Lu Youning's face full of tears is still vivid in his memory.The scene that I saw when I stood outside the door finally gradually faded in time, but now it is re-portraited by the subconscious memory in the dream.

The other person's face and the man's indifferent expression seemed to remind him all the time that Lu Yun disliked or even loathed such behavior.

Even he couldn't figure out from Lu Yun's face whether the other party was disgusted with his blood-related younger brother's unethical thoughts towards him, or whether Lu Youning, who was also a man, had feelings for him like a woman towards a man, Or, in fact, both.

Calculated in this way, no matter which of the three guesses the final truth and result is biased towards, there will be a hundred disadvantages and no advantages for Lu Xijia.What's more, in terms of blood relationship, compared to the relationship between Lu Youning and Lu Yun, he is the one who is closer to Lu Yun's blood relationship.

After living peacefully until the age of 19, Lu Xijia finally discovered that he seemed to have encountered the most troublesome problem in the first half of his life.A question that has no solution if you think about it left or right, and has fallen into a dead end.

There are no problems in this world that can really be solved easily.He finally had the same shady thoughts as Lu Youning, Lu Youning's lessons learned before him, the best way Lu Xijia came up with in a short period of time, there was no other way but to escape.

After all, the lie had been blurted out, Lu Xijia didn't ask Lin Xi to come out to play at all, he could only stay in the dormitory until midnight, and then pretended that he had just finished with his friends, and took a taxi home alone.

When entering the house, close the door gently, and when passing by the study and the master bedroom, be gentle.When the butler came to knock on his and Lu Yun's door after making midnight snacks, he could only brush his teeth and go to bed with the excuse that he was too tired from class.

The next morning, before Lu Yun went downstairs for breakfast, he went out with a sandwich in his mouth. In the evening, he continued to be busy attending dinners and parties organized by his friends.Like other college students who are busy socializing, every day is busy and fulfilling, until he can be in Lu Yun's sight without leaking anything.

After two days like this, Lu Xijia finally received another message from Ji Wei, and the other party proposed to invite him to dinner again.Lu Xijia agreed without hesitation, and when she turned to Lu Yun to explain, she was much more confident than when she lied two days ago.

But Lu Yun didn't nod again, and only asked in a slightly lowered voice, "What are you doing these days?"

Lu Xijia was taken aback when she heard the words, tilted her head and said hesitantly: "I didn't do anything, it's just that there are too many parties."

Lu Yun frowned and interrupted him slightly displeased: "What party requires you to go out before seven o'clock in the morning?"

Lu Xijia was at a loss for words for a second, and after a while he hesitated and said: "...something."

Lu Yun's eyes locked on him tightly, "What's the matter?"

Lu Xijia pursed the corners of her lips and did not speak, her eyes fell straight down, her hands were loosely held behind her back, her body centered on her left leg, her right foot stood on tiptoe, and absently drew circles on the ground.

Lu Yun's gaze fell steadily on his face, but a little irritability welled up in his heart.Although I don't know the reason, it can be clearly seen that Lu Xijia is deliberately avoiding him——

Since two mornings ago, when Lu Xijia avoided his gaze with a strange expression in the corridor outside the room, he had already faintly noticed it.

Almost indifferently, he removed those emotions that shouldn't be there from his chest, and in the end he just rolled his Adam's apple slightly, and said in a low and deep voice, "Go, I'll pick you up at night."

Lu Xijia keenly heard the strangeness, and quietly raised her eyes to look at him, but she couldn't see any emotion from his expressionless face.

Lu Yun's gaze returned to the paper document in his hand, and the sound of Lu Xijia turning and leaving was heard very clearly, even after a few seconds, there was still a lingering sound.He calmly turned over a page of the document, his eyes fixed on the black words on the white paper.

After a while, he closed his eyes with extreme restraint, and looked at the paper in his hand with fluctuating pupils. He turned the document back to the previous page again, and absently reached for the cigarette case in the drawer.

Ji Wei insisted on inviting him to eat Western food in a western restaurant, but Lu Xijia directly refused him politely, saying that the price of a meal was several times the price of his clothes as far as the clothes and pants he was wearing were washed white. .

After some discussions between the two, the other party finally compromised, sat down at a small restaurant at random in the food street in the university city, and then invited Lu Xijia to have a meal.

The two crossed the road in front of the food street one after the other, Lu Xijia walked in front with her hands in her pockets, her eyes fluttered across the various signboards on the street, and Ji Wei followed behind him step by step.

Lu Xijia was dazzled and upset, and finally pointed to the restaurant at the end that was surrounded by many students, turned her head and motioned to Ji Wei and said, "Let's just go there, there are so many people, it shouldn't be difficult to eat."

A trace of hesitation appeared on Ji Wei's face, "There are so many people, we may have to wait in line."

Lu Xijia nodded indifferently, "Then just wait, it's still early." He finished talking to himself, and as if remembering something, he turned to look at Ji Wei, "Do you have class tonight?"

Ji Wei immediately shook his head and answered, "No."

Lu Xijia nodded in satisfaction, and took the lead in walking towards the crowded restaurant.When the two walked to the front of the restaurant, they vaguely noticed that something was wrong.Rather than saying that the students outside the door came to eat, it would be better to say that they gathered around to watch the excitement.

A woman with yellow and rough skin in an apron stood in the store arguing with a man with a fierce face.The students crowded at the door and chattered, and Lu Xijia listened to it for a while.

The honest proprietress’s ex-boyfriend came to ask her for money, but the proprietress refused to give it. The ex-boyfriend stood at the door of the store angrily, exposing to passers-by that the proprietress of this store had been in prison before, and scared away many students who came to eat.

Ji Wei immediately frowned, "Let's eat somewhere else."

Lu Xijia's eyes lingered on the faces of the men and women in the store for a moment, and when she heard the words she withdrew her gaze and was about to turn around and leave, she caught a glimpse of commotion in the center of the crowd, as if someone pushed away the students who were watching the excitement and squeezed in.

He paused when he left, and turned his face sideways to look into the store over the human wall like a ghost.The older middle-aged woman protected the proprietress behind her, and scolded the man sarcastically.

The man spat on the ground cursingly, turned around and wanted to go out of the shop.The middle-aged woman with her back turned to him, followed the man with her eyes and turned sideways, Lu Xijia was stunned for a second.

Half an hour later, at the dinner table, he suddenly recalled that the vaguely familiar face was the face of the middle-aged female doctor he had seen in the Central Hospital.

When Lu Yun came to pick him up after the dinner, he and Ji Wei were sitting in a dessert shop on the food street.The driver parked the car on the side of the road outside the dessert shop, and Lu Yun was sitting in the back seat. When he was about to call him, he saw Lu Xijia sitting on a high stool in front of the French window.

There was a slight pause in the action of pressing the dial key, Lu Yun's eyes flicked past his face, and then fell steadily on the face of the young boy sitting beside Lu Xijia, who turned his head sideways to talk to him.

Lu Yun squinted his eyes silently and looked at the other party. The moment he saw the other party's face clearly, a little coldness between his brows gradually spread on his face.He withdrew from Lu Xijia's name, first called Lin Xi, and inadvertently mentioned the party two days ago.

Lin Xi didn't receive the statement from Lu Xijia in advance, and when he answered the phone, he happened to be playing a game, and he was fully focused on the game, so he couldn't react in a short time, so he subconsciously asked: "Party?" ? What party?"

Lu Yun hung up the phone with a gloomy expression, and then called Lu Xijia.The second the phone was connected, he pressed the hang up button expressionlessly.It suddenly occurred to him that he judged almost conceitedly that Lu Xijia left early and returned late just to avoid him.

At the same time, on the seat by the floor-to-ceiling windows in the dessert shop, Lu Xijia glanced suspiciously at the hung up phone, then got up and said to Ji Wei: "My brother is here, I have to go first."

Ji Wei nodded, lowered her head to think for a second, then smiled embarrassedly, "Thank you."

Lu Xijia twitched the corners of her lips indifferently, turned around and opened the glass door, walked out of the dessert shop, and walked straight to the private car parked by the road.

The car was not the one that Lu Yun himself usually drove, the driver was squatting on the side of the road playing with his mobile phone.He opened the back seat door and leaned in, but when he turned around, he heard Lu Yun ask in a cold tone: "Are you still in contact with him?"

"What?" Lu Xijia asked subconsciously.

"The waiter who works in the bar." Lu Yun locked him with dark eyes, "You like him very much?"

"You know him?" A trace of astonishment flashed across Lu Xijia's face, and then she remembered that Lu Yun had investigated his fight in the bar, "He said he wanted to invite me to dinner."

"Dinner?" Lu Yun showed a smile that was not a smile, but his pupils were cold, "It takes three consecutive days to invite you to dinner? Did you lie with him two days ago?" There was a faint sternness in the man's eyes, "What did you do two nights ago?"

Being exposed as a liar in person, Lu Xijia subconsciously felt a little guilty, and her tone softened a lot when she opened her mouth to refute, "I wasn't with him two days ago."

Anger finally surfaced on Lu Yun's face as if he couldn't restrain it. Contrary to the faintly angry expression on his face, his tone was filled with icicles: "I called Lin Xi to ask, you still don't want to say Is it true? I almost lost my life in a fight for him in a bar a few months ago, and I still have to associate with him if I haven’t learned my lesson yet? You like him that much?”

Lu Xijia looked at him inexplicably, "I—"

Anger and boredom are intertwined, or there are other emotions that have been accumulated and suppressed for many days, all of which are like a flood that has been closed for many days, gushing out as if it can no longer be restrained.

The initial anger had been submerged in the cold air pressure, Lu Yun's face was cold, and he interrupted him word by word: "I'll ask again, what did you do with him two days ago? What did you do, and you still need me?" Lied for two consecutive days and used Lin Xi as a shield?"

No matter how good-tempered Lu Xijia was, she couldn't help feeling a little angry at this moment.What's more, his temper is not very good at all, the most is that he has learned how to restrain his temper in front of Lu Yun.

He blurted out with a half-smile: "Where is it? I spent two fucking nights alone in the dormitory playing with my phone."

Lu Yun looked at him expressionlessly, his dark pupils filled with coldness.

"You don't believe it?" Lu Xijia raised her eyelids to look at him, then casually pulled the corners of her lips, "You don't believe it."

He seemed so dazed that he was a little helpless, and he seemed to be upset to the breaking point.Over the years of growing up, his instincts drove him to arm himself with sneers and indifference.However, just being intimate with Lu Yun for a few months has subtly changed the habits he has developed over the years.

The moment the corners of his lips were about to rise, his anger and impatience were swallowed up by the sudden surge of grievances. As if he had finally given up on himself, he blurted out the words that were suppressed in his heart: "Even if you are a poor waiter working in a bar, I voluntarily fought, and he didn't cause the car accident. His family background is clean, he didn't cheat me of money, and he didn't kill me. Why are you so angry when I date him? "

"Even if I lied to you to go to a hotel with him two days ago to open a room, young people don't talk about marriage and love freely, and there is no such thing as a man with a big belly. After a few years, after breaking up, you can still follow the family's wishes and get married."

"Except for the fact that she fell in love with a poor waiter, it will not be good for the Lu family's reputation, and there is nothing that involves the interests of the Lu family."

Lu Xijia, who didn't read much since she was a child, has never had a moment where her mind is spinning so fast like now.It seemed that he wanted to win or lose subconsciously, or that he was simply emotionally unstable. He spit out rebuttals so fast that even for a moment, he probably couldn't even hear what he was saying.

As if he wanted to expel all the stagnation in his heart for the past two days, he stared at the other person as if venting and blurted out: "So, brother, why are you angry?"

The next second, the car fell into deathly silence.
