Over the line connivance

Zong Chengye sat at the booth of the coffee & breakfast shop, fiddling with the inferior tea leaves in the tea box, thinking about how to scold Xiao Qing to death.

Xiao Qing deserved it - who told him to meddle in his own business.

Aromas of overly sweet waffles and fried omelets slowly rise and are all rolled into the nose.

Luo Bi made breakfast this morning.He did a very healthy job, rolling up his sleeves and frying eggs in the open kitchen in an ungirly apron.

He had already tidied himself up properly. When he saw Zong Chengye staring blankly at him with his disheveled hair, he smiled slightly and said sincerely, "It's really early."

"Yeah, yeah." Zong Chengye nodded and rushed into the bathroom|room.

When he came out again, Luo Bi had already put the breakfast on a plate, with a proper mix of meat and vegetables, and balanced protein nutrition, and placed it in front of Zong Chengye.This is an excellent warm scene, which Zong Chengye only imagined in his mind before.

There was a long table at home, Luo Bi naturally sat down beside Zong Chengye, picked up chopsticks and ate gracefully.Seeing Zong Chengye not moving, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Isn't it to your liking?"

"No!" As if to prove otherwise, Zong Chengye picked up the spoon and quickly took a mouthful of the porridge, grinning so hotly.

Luo Bi was amused by him, and poured a glass of cold water by his hand.

Zong Chengye drank the water, bowed his head in embarrassment and ate.

The atmosphere at the dining table was very harmonious. Today was Saturday, and Luo Bi sat in his seat after eating, picking up paper newspapers and flipping through them.He wears glasses and looks very serious, but also a little careless.

Zong Chengye found that Luo Bi was a bit old-fashioned in some respects.For example, he still insists on reading paper newspapers, for example, the breakfast is still Chinese, for example, he has a sense of morality - he stays in the social section of the newspaper for a relatively long time.

Zong Chengye took a cursory glance, talking about pensions for the elderly.

Zong Chengye thought of something that he had been struggling with for a long time.The person who brought him to Luo Bi's house that day called him Luo Bi's cousin.

That person was always very frivolous, calling him "cousin" and "Luo Bi's cousin" in one way or another.At that time, Zong Chengye didn't ask because of their identities.

Now he started to struggle again, what should he call Luo Bi.

Calling "Mr. Luo" seems too unfamiliar, and calling him "Uncle" is very awkward.Zong Chengye stared at Luo Bi's serious and handsome side face, and frowned in distress.

"What are you thinking?" Luo Bi read the social news section and turned a page backwards.

"Ah." Zong Chengye thought that this is a long-term problem, and it should be answered clearly before it develops into a serious illness, so he asked, "What should I call you?"

After a pause, he reminded, "The person who brought me here thought I was your cousin."

"That's Peng Yun." Luo Bi closed the newspaper and looked up at him, "He is a very enthusiastic person who likes to ask a lot of questions."

Zong Chengye was stunned for a moment, then nodded in understanding after realizing it.The last thing he needed during this time was extra concern, asking how he was doing after his parents passed away.

"Okay." Zong Chengye said gratefully.

Luo Bi smiled, re-opened the newspaper after confirming that there was nothing wrong with Zong Chengye, and said casually, "You can call me brother."

Zong Chengye also relaxed, leaned back on the backrest, narrowed his eyes and joked, "But according to the law, I should call you Dad."

Zong Chengye is seventeen this year, and Luo Bi is in his early thirties.Although he is well-maintained and looks young and elegant, he has a calm and stable temperament.

Zong Chengye's eyes were a little blurred, his eyelashes seemed to cover his eyes, thick and magnificent like butterfly wings, as if they were about to fly away at any time.The white skin on both cheeks was slightly pink due to the heat and smoke, and he muttered to be joking with Luo Bi.

Luo Bi only glanced at it, then turned away.

He smiled gently, and did not reprimand Zong Chengye for his presumptuousness.

Luo Bi turned over another page of the newspaper, reading this side too quickly.

This is the first official meeting between the two. Luo Bi is approachable and the atmosphere is relaxed and harmonious.Zong Chengye really wanted to ask why he didn't know that Ms. Luo had such a younger brother in the first 17 years of his life.But he didn't ask in the end.

He enjoyed the unexpected breakfast wholeheartedly, and sighed with satisfaction, "It's delicious, and your craftsmanship is really good."

Luo Bi said casually, "You like it, you can eat it often in the future."

Zong Chengye was stunned in his seat.Looking at Luo Bi's unconscious profile, his heart was agitated.

He was stabbed to the nerves by the word "later", and his brain crashed like a system disorder without distinguishing between black and white.Luo Bi's casual words made him fascinated.Surrounded by warmth and the smell of eggs, he is sure that as long as he behaves well, he will not be homeless until he is an adult.

Because Luo Bi will definitely not abandon stray animals at will - he is so responsible.

Luo Bi is so good, even letting Zong Chengye sit in this dirty booth at this moment is like betraying him.

Xiao Qing is here.He was wearing casual clothes, and walked quickly through the noisy and greasy aisle with his head tilted slightly, as if he was not used to this kind of place.

A document bag was placed on the dining table, Xiao Qing did not expect that Zong Chengye would arrive earlier than him.After the awkward silence, he opened his lips and asked, "Xiao Ye, how have you been recently?"

Zong Chengye couldn't understand how someone as glib as Zong Gaosheng, who was as smooth as soaked in honey, would like Xiao Qing who was dumbfounded, dull, and irrational.Besides, he's a man.

Zong Chengye crossed his arms, raised his eyebrows and leaned back towards the booth, "If you just came to ask this, then we don't need to talk about it."

Xiao Qing froze for a moment, realizing that Zong Chengye didn't want to greet him.He looked down at the document in his hand, and said softly: "I don't know how Luo Bi contacted you. He and Luo Xing are siblings in foster care, not your blood relatives. Luo Bi teaches philosophy at Manchuria University. , unmarried, but he has some strange hobbies." Xiao Qing frowned and remained silent for a moment, as if he was phrasing, "He has sadistic desires and likes to bring pain to others. This is the detailed information that my secretary inquired about." He Pointing to a corner of the document, pushing it along the table towards Zong Chengye——

Zong Chengye held the stack of sealed materials, several millimeters thin, carrying Luo Bi's stable and peaceful life, and felt an inexplicable sense of disgust in his heart.He raised his hand and threw the information back on the table, "Who asked you to check it? Why do you check his life?"

The document was thrown on the table with a "snap" sound, Xiao Qing frowned, not satisfied with his presumptuous attitude, and his tone became tougher, "Chengye, I'm worried about you. After your parents left——"

"You, no, qualifications, mention, my mother!" Zong Chengye paused every word, and finally almost shouted out.He patted the table emotionally, and the violent vibration spilled the coffee in the cup onto the white saucer, and the sound of knives and forks in the restaurant seemed to stop, "What qualifications do you have? You meddle in their marriage, if It wasn't you! How could they quarrel in the car! How could they die in a car accident! If it wasn't for you!! How could I not even have a home now! You are not qualified to mention my mother!"

His voice became louder and louder, like ten thousand swords piercing Xiao Qing's scalp.He raised his head in horror, opened his mouth in vain, and finally said nothing.

Zong Chengye fell back to his original position, took a heavy breath, and said in a hoarse voice: "He likes pain, and I often feel pain, so he will always protect me." His voice became smaller and smaller, as if he wanted to tell himself , "I won't be homeless."

Xiao Qing's chest rose and fell, he closed his eyes, paused for a moment, and said in a low voice: "...I'm sorry."

He said: "Gao Sheng... I didn't know about the gift contract signed by Zong Gaosheng before, and I don't want any of it now. I will return it all to you. If you are worried about this, please..." Xiao Qing's voice There were half imperceptible fluctuations, "...don't worry."

His hands trembled a little, and he retracted his knees and clenched into fists. Xiao Qing exhaled, and looked directly at Zong Chengye as calmly as possible, "But I never destroyed your family."

"I will sell the house. The place where you and Zong Gaosheng had sex is disgusting." Zong Chengye interrupted him, raising his eyelids, the look in his eyes was the same as anything Xiao Qing had been fighting against for the first half of his life. One point of view is the same, and the viciousness is taken for granted, "How can two men be together? Is there true love between you? What is the difference between pure sexual desire and animals?"

Xiao Qing seemed to be pricked by a needle, and the ordinary people in the breakfast shop all cast curious glances at him.He even started to tremble faintly.

He has always avoided appearing in the public eye and being pointed at by others, and he has always avoided coming to this kind of restaurant with many people and no partitions between the seats; even if he tried his best to become a giant in the electronic information industry, it was only to To hide myself from being judged by these mediocre, clueless people.

But Zong Cheng's unreasonable accusation drove him to the bottom of the valley again. He seemed to be stripped naked and put on display in a museum hall. The incandescent lights were so dazzling that his skin seemed to be burned to smoke, and his throat was Can't make a sound because of dryness.

"Aren't you afraid to say it publicly? So I can only have sex with Zong Gaosheng secretly in the corner of our house, because it's abnormal, like a bug." Zong Chengye smiled mockingly.

Xiao Qing shook violently, like the Empire State Building about to topple, with a panicked expression, like a baby who has just been thrown into the world.

Zong Chengye is like the ever-rising Mount Everest, getting taller and taller in front of him.

"No..." Xiao Qing said, "...you shut up."

He and Zong Gaosheng are not like this, they are deeply in love, it is difficult to control their love, and it is for the other party to keep their names anonymous.Zong Gaosheng guided him like a reliable elder, saw his low self-esteem, told him that it was okay to do anything, told him that it was the two of them's business, and others had to take care of it, so fuck him.

When Zong Gaosheng spoke at his first meeting, he held his sweaty and extremely weak hand under the table, smiled at him, and encouraged him to be no different from others.

Together they used to be a complete piece of the puzzle.

But if this is the case, why did Zong Gaosheng get married?Why do you want to have a child with someone else, let him become a third party who is abused, despicable, and worms?

The two of them flew to the Sahara in the past, watching the sunset make the sand as pure as a sea of ​​snow, Zong Gaocheng kissed him and said that love should live in the sun, but why now Xiao Qing only deserves to live in a dark corner?

He trembled uncontrollably, covering his cheeks weakly with his ten fingers, feeling the moisture gradually soaking into his fingers.

When did he turn from an attachment to a selfish accomplice, cutting himself and others bloody like a sharp knife?

Everything was silent.Xiao Qing never dared to raise his head again, he avoided Zong Chengye's gaze like a sinner, choked up and swallowed the bitterness that could almost overwhelm him, and said in a hoarse voice: "...I'm sorry."

He thought that helping Zong Chengye would make up for all this, but the darkness swallowed his self-assertion like a crack.

He doesn't apologize for liking men, but he regrets indulging Zong Gaosheng's half-heartedness.

But I never, never want to destroy other people's families.
