that's just a story

Shu Fanzhen returned to the hotel where he was staying in the bodyguard's car without asking Brother Yu to see him off.The little brother and the three of them have left messages for him, and they are already at the hotel.Shu Fanzhen sat alone in the hotel lobby for a while before going upstairs.He knocked on the room of the three of them, and sure enough, everyone was there.Ying Zonglin, Shu Wenyu and Shu Wenzhao were watching the video of the basketball game when Gu Jun opened the door. As soon as Shu Fanzhen appeared, the living room immediately became more lively.

Ying Zonglin greeted Shu Fanzhen, and then watched the video of the game intently. It was a game played by the basketball team of Logner Private Academy in Pennsylvania.Logner Private Academy is a well-known comprehensive private school in Pennsylvania and a strong opponent of Sheng Huade.Rogner has already obtained the right to appear in the rematch, and Shenghuade will definitely encounter the opponent in the rematch. Ying Zonglin found the video of Rogner's previous games and is studying it with Shu Wenyu and Shu Wenzhao.Shu Wenzhao and Shu Wenyu were not that interested in this competition, but after Han Han and En En showed considerable enthusiasm for their brother's competition, they became motivated to win the championship.

No one asked about Shu Fanzhen's "meeting guests". Hanhan and Enen were curious, but they remembered what their brother said, so they didn't ask.Shu Fan really seemed a little dull and didn't talk much.During the period, Shu Wenyu went out to answer a phone call. After he came back, Shu Fanzhen asked, "Brother, are you going home tonight?"

Shu Wenyu knew what he meant, and said, "I won't go back. Big brother let us play with peace of mind and don't have to go back."

"Oh."

After that, Shu Fan really stopped talking.Hanhan and Enen looked at Luo Luoge's expression and pretended to concentrate on playing the game. They could feel that Luo Luoge was not in a good mood.

In the evening, Gu Jun cooked Italian food. After dinner, Shu Wenyu and Shu Wenzhao took Hanhan and Enen back to the room. Before leaving, Shu Wenyu asked Shu Fanzhen to go with them.As soon as they left, the expressions on the faces of Gu Jun, Tao Xianlong and Ying Zonglin disappeared.

Shu Wenyu called Shu Fanzhen to their room, and he said directly: "Lolo, Brother Anruila called you to tell me the purpose of seeing you. The elder brother said, if you don't want Vilas to come to celebrate your birthday, he will talk."

Hanhan and Enen looked surprised, they blinked and did not interrupt.Shu Fanzhen pursed his lips, and said: "On Christmas Eve, I want to go out with Ying Zonglin and the others... Vilas may have misunderstood something."

Enen exclaimed: "Brother Luo Luo, aren't you at home on Christmas Eve?"

Shu Wenyu, who already knew the reason from his elder brother, asked, "Where are you going to play?"

"It's in New York. I haven't told them yet." Fearing that his brother might misunderstand, Shu Fanzhen explained: "Gu Jun's birthday is also on the 25th, so I thought, let's celebrate by ourselves one day earlier."

Shu Wenyu nodded, expressing his understanding, and said: "Then you go. You can't disrupt your arrangement just because Vilas is coming. You just tell him your arrangement, and he decides whether to arrive early or not on the 25th." Come back one day."

Enen whispered: "The 25th is Christmas..." So it's okay if Brother Veras doesn't come, because Brother Luoluo doesn't seem to want Brother Veras to come.

Shu Wenzhao patted Enen's head and said, "Lolo, if you don't want to speak up, I'll tell Vilas that you've already made the order."

Shu Fan really thought about it, and said, "Let me say it."

Shu Wenyu said: "On your birthday, maybe someone else will come. The eldest brother said that Brother Li asked him where you plan to celebrate your birthday, and the eldest brother said that it has not been confirmed yet."

"..." Shu Fan really rubbed his feet on the carpet, Shu Wenyu and Shu Wenzhao knew he was in trouble.

Shu Wenyu said distressedly: "Luo Luo, it's better to let Dad and Daddy tell the outside world that you don't plan to find a boyfriend before the age of 20."

Shu Fan really looked up, is it useful?

Shu Wenzhao curled his lips: "Even if you say that, will they listen? There are too many monks and too little food. Luo Luo is going to be 17 soon, and he is single again. That is the meat that the hungry wolf eats."

Eun hugged her elder brother (Wen Zhao) by the waist, thankful that she was engaged to her elder brother, it was terrible.Shu Wenzhao patted En En's back to comfort him, and then said: "If Luo Luo is not engaged, those single pure men will not give up for a day."

Han Han said: "Brother Luo Luo, don't be at home on your birthday, just say, say, you celebrated your birthday with Brother Ying, Brother Gu, and Brother Tao."

Shu Fanzhen shook his head, and said in a muffled voice: "Veras has already said that he will come." He looked at the two younger brothers, "I will tell Vilas that I will not be at home on Christmas Eve.

If Brother Li asked me, I would say the same.Will there be other people coming, dad, daddy and big brother will entertain. "If you don't like it, you just don't like it.

Shu Wenyu stepped forward and hugged his younger brother: "Do what you want. If you don't like it, no one can force you."

"En." Shu Fan really hugged his brother back.Shu Wenzhao also went up and patted his younger brother: "Everything is up to us, Luo Luo."

"Ah."

After coming out of my brother's room, Shu Fan really went back to his own room.After thinking about it, instead of calling Vilas, he sent him a message telling Vilas that he was not at home on Christmas Eve.Vilas came back quickly and asked him where he was going.Shu Fan really said that he invited friends out to play.Vilas immediately asked him if he was with Ying Zonglin and the three of them.Shu Fanzhen only replied "Yes".Vilas didn't come back for a long time, Shu Fanzhen threw the phone on the bed and went to take a shower.

While he was in the shower, his phone rang several times.When Shu Fanzhen came out of the shower, he picked up the phone when he saw the screen of the phone was flashing.Sixteen missed calls and several messages.There are Dad and Daddy, Vilas, Ying Zonglin, Gu Jun and Tao Xianlong.Vilas has a message: [You can go out on Christmas Eve, I will arrive in New York on the 25th. 】

Shu Fan really turned around: [I went out just now, without my mobile phone.OK 】

Dad and Daddy asked what he was doing and asked him to call them back.Ying Zonglin, Gu Jun and Tao Xianlong asked him what he was doing and if he wanted supper.

The message from Vilas came back again, and he said good night to him, and Shu Fanzhen politely said good night to the other party.Then he called Dad and Daddy.Hearing that his son didn't answer the phone because he was taking a bath just now, the two were relieved.Shu Tianao and Yu Fanle just called their son routinely without asking about their son's meeting with An Ruila, and told him that An Ruila was going back to Los Angeles the day after tomorrow.

After finishing talking with Dad and Daddy, Shu Fanzhen changed into his clothes, took out his cell phone and left the room.Coming to the next door, he rang the doorbell.Soon someone came to open the door, and when the person who opened the door saw that it was him, he raised the corners of his lips to let him in, and said, "I thought you weren't coming."

"I was taking a shower just now, so I didn't hear the phone ringing." Before Shu Fanzhen walked in, he heard the other two call: "Good baby (Luo Luo), you're here."

Ying Zonglin closed the door behind Shu Fanzhen. Barefoot, he walked quickly to Shu Fanzhen's side, put his hand on his shoulder, and asked, "Are you going to watch the game tomorrow?"

"Go." Shu Fanzhen raised his head and looked at the other party inexplicably, then walked to the single sofa and sat down, grabbed the pillow and hugged him.There are all kinds of snacks and drinks on the coffee table, he said: "I brushed my teeth."

"You can brush it again after eating." Gu Jun picked up a piece of Black Forest and put it in a small plate and handed it over.Shu Fanzhen didn't answer, but said: "I want to drink a glass of milk instead of cake."

"Okay." Gu Jun put down the cake indifferently, got up from the carpet to get milk for Shu Fanzhen, and was quite sure: "Hot?"

"Ah."

"OK."

Gu Jun went to the kitchen and worked tirelessly to get Shu Fanzhen a cup of hot milk. Tao Xianlong, who was also sitting on the carpet, moved to Shu Fanzhen's sofa, raised his head and asked, "Good boy, you came back from outside today, and you don't seem to be in a good mood."

Shu Fanzhen rested his chin on the pillow, and said quietly: "Vilas is going to come to celebrate my birthday, I agree."

Ying Zonglin rested his chin on one hand, and stared at Shu Fanzhen with no emotion in his eyes. Tao Xianlong wrinkled his nose: "Are you reconciled with that guy?"

"...That's right. Brother Anruila is a very good person." After a pause, "He is Vilas' brother."

So you can't save face?Tao Xianlong hooked his lips and smiled: "Forget it, it's someone I've known for many years. Is your birthday at home?"

Shu Fanzhen glanced in the direction of the kitchen and licked his lips: "Well... you said before, Christmas Eve, celebrate birthday early..." Before he finished speaking, Tao Xianlong's eyes lit up.

"Good boy, can you celebrate your birthday with us on Christmas Eve?"

"……Um."

"Ha, that's great!" Tao Xianlong immediately yelled towards the kitchen, "A Jun, we can celebrate the baby's birthday on Christmas Eve!"

"Really? That's great!" Gu Jun came out of the kitchen with a glass of milk and noodles in surprise.

Shu Fanzhen blinked and corrected: "It's my birthday with Gu Jun."

Tao Xianlong was stunned for a moment, and then said unwillingly: "Ah, yes, there is also Ah Jun."

"In New York?" Ying Zonglin said abruptly.

Shu Fanzhen nodded: "It's in New York."

Ying Zonglin only asked Shu Fanzhen for his opinion, and when the other party said that he wanted to be in New York, he would be in New York.He said: "I will pick you up early on the morning of the 24th, you wait at home."

"it is good."

"Milk." Gu Jun sat down on the armrest of Shu Fanzhen's sofa.

"Thank you." Shu Fanzhen took a sip of the milk, the temperature was right, and then asked, "Did today's game be hard?"

"Today is alright. Ah Lin and the others won relatively easily."

The four chatted about the game that Shu Fan really didn't see today.It wasn't until he yawned that Shu Fanzhen put down the empty cup, indicating that he was going back to sleep.

"I'll see you off." Ying Zonglin stood up.

Shu Fan's heart beat a little faster for no reason.Gu Jun and Tao Xianlong poked Ying Zonglin with eye knives, and Ying Zonglin found his shoes and put them on, signaling Shu Fanzhen.Shu Fanzhen stood up, said goodnight to Gu Jun and Tao Xianlong, and left with Ying Zonglin.

"That despicable guy, Ah Lin."

"We can be mean, too."

Gu Jun comforted Tao Xianlong like this.

After opening the door and entering the room, Shu Fan really heard the person behind him say: "Step on my back."

The beating heart immediately calmed down after hearing this sentence, with the clarity of "it really is like this".Shu Fanzhen kept walking towards the bedroom, and couldn't help asking: "Don't fall asleep."

"I try my best."

The footsteps stopped.

"Wake me up if I fall asleep."

The footsteps continued.

"Fan Zhen."

stop.

The carpet covered the footsteps, under the shadow, Shu Fanzhen raised his head.The tall person stood one step away from him, and the other person bent down and put his hands on his knees, so that he could just look at him.

"You don't want Vilas to celebrate your birthday." Sure.

He lowered his eyes and took a small step back, he could almost breathe the other person's breath.

"Since you don't want to, why force yourself? I'm embarrassed to refuse?"

head down.

"That An Ruila has a lot of face? Or is your Shu family afraid of Dracula's family? As you are, there is no need to wrong yourself so much."

different...

Rubbing the carpet with his right foot, Shu Fanzhen said slowly, "Brother An Ruila, wear the bracelet too."

Ying Zonglin's eyebrows suddenly tightened.

"So, refuse, no."

With mockery in his eyes, Ying Zonglin straightened up: "Understood." Reaching out to grab Shu Fanzhen's arm, he turned around: "Step on my back."

"When is tomorrow's game?"

"Afternoon. I can sleep in tomorrow."

"Ying Zonglin."

"Ok?"

"...Why don't you have a girlfriend?"

The person who climbed onto the bed turned his head in surprise.

Shu Fan really plucked up his courage, and asked again: "Shouldn't you guys not have girlfriends?" That's right, he suddenly wanted to know.

Ying Zonglin turned his head, closed his eyes, and said sleepily: "I'm not interested in being a stallion. I have a regular girlfriend, which means that I will be urged to marry by my family and have children. And, you can guarantee that, Those women love me and not my money?"

"..." Seems to be more pitiful than myself?

"Both Gu Jun and Tao Xianlong?"

"We're all the same. Including you."

It's different.The words of rebuttal came to his lips but did not come out.Stepping on Ying Zonglin's back, Shu Fanzhen suddenly realized that in a sense, he and them were indeed the same.They are not sure whether women love themselves or the wealth and status they represent.And he is not sure whether those so-called pursuits are because of himself or his fertility.

"Fan Zhen."

"Ok?"

"If you have willful capital, don't waste it. You don't need to give face to anyone. You have the Shu family, the Ying family, the Gu family and the Tao family. What are you afraid of?"

Shu Fan was really stunned on the spot.

"The three of us have many friends, but you are the only one who can help us keep the jade. If Vilas bothers you again in the future, you just refuse him. There is nothing to worry about. Don't stop."

Lifting his foot and stepping on it, Shu Fanzhen's lips were pursed into a straight line, and his eyes were a little hot.

"I won't be willful."

"I teach you."

"No."

"why?"

"I think it's better to be more reserved."

"Hmph. Then you have to wrong yourself."

"Alright."

"is it?"

"Um, yes."

"up to you."

Ying Zonglin's words almost came out of his nose.Shu Fan really knew that he was sleepy, so he stopped talking.Seriously stomping on the opponent's back until beads of sweat emerged from the tip of his nose and he was out of breath, Shu Fanzhen didn't stop.Sitting down beside Ying Zonglin, Shu Fanzhen retracted his raised hand when he was about to touch him.

Half of the quilt was pressed under Ying Zonglin's body, and Shu Fanzhen lifted the other half to cover Ying Zonglin's body.After turning off the lamp, he took his pajamas and quietly walked out of the bedroom, closing the sliding door.

A few minutes later, the living room was also plunged into darkness.On the sofa, Shu Fanzhen lay on the spare quilt and closed his eyes.

Good night, Ying Zonglin.Good night, Gu Jun and Tao Xianlong.

In the middle of the night, the sound of the door being opened was particularly obvious in the silent night, but the person who was asleep on the sofa did not hear it.A tall black shadow came out of the bedroom, and the thick carpet made him, who was already walking lightly, not make a single movement.Coming to the sofa, the black shadow squatted down.Raising his hand, after pausing for a few seconds, his fingers gently brushed over the other's beautiful and gentle sleeping face.The black shadow lowered his head, and after touching the opponent's cheek, he backed away.

I dreamed that elder brother and elder brother Yu were getting married. At the wedding scene, many people surrounded him, asking for the gold bracelet on his wrist.He kept backing away in fright, and just when his gold bracelet was about to be snatched away, someone hugged him tightly from behind, grabbed his left hand with the bracelet and pulled it back from the stranger's hand. Look up.

Opening his eyes suddenly, Shu Fan looked up in a daze.After a long while, he stretched out his hand from under the quilt, and the bracelet was still there.Then, he was taken aback again and turned his head.

He is on the bed...

Next to it was another pillow, and underneath was the palpable tactile feel of the bed.As if the tight strings were being plucked vigorously, Shu Fan sat up in shock, lifted the quilt and got out of bed.Without shoes, he ran out of the bedroom barefoot.When he saw the sofa, he stopped abruptly again.

On the sofa, there was a messy quilt and no one was there.

Breathing inexplicably short of breath, staring at the sofa where he slept last night, the doubt in Shu Fanzhen's eyes was gradually covered by shy moisture.When...he didn't feel it at all...

Turning around, returning to the bedroom, and getting into bed, Shu Fan really got into bed and buried himself in the quilt.The gold bracelet with body temperature was pressed against his skin. After a long time, one hand stretched out from the bed, touched the phone next to the pillow, and turned it on.

[Fan Zhen, wake me up later. 】
