Lu Peichen intentionally distanced himself from Xu Maidong, rarely went back these seven days, and spent most of his time busy at work, even when he returned to Lu's house, he would deliberately stagger the time and try not to get in touch with Xu Maidong.

After talking and sending messages twice in a row and being perfunctory, Xu Maidong was sensitive to this change, and rarely appeared outside the studio or room. When he happened to meet him, he just lowered his head and remained silent.

Mother Lu noticed something was wrong with the atmosphere, but she didn't come forward to reconcile as before. She asked Lu Peichen privately, and after hearing that it was nothing serious, she let them go.

The day before the end of the holiday, Lu Peichen returned to Lu's house very late.

Just as he was about to enter the room, the door next door opened suddenly. He looked around and saw Xu Maidong.

Xu Maidong was standing at the door in a clean white shirt, with his hands on the doorknob, feeling a little uneasy.He looked at Lu Peichen, as if it took him a long time to muster up his courage, his expression was expectant, and his eyes were bright: "I'm going back to school tomorrow, can Mr. Lu see me off?"

Lu Peichen hesitated for a while. He wanted to refuse, but before he could say anything, the light in his eyes went out and disappeared, showing a hurt expression. He pursed his lips and said, "Does Mr. Lu hate me?"

Lu Peichen returned quickly and said, "No."

"Does that mean I drew you without Mr. Lu's consent? Do you really mind?" Xu Maidong asked, he looked up at Lu Peichen slightly, his eyes gradually turned red: "Mr. Lu, I'm really sorry, I admire you so much." You, it doesn’t matter if you want to paint by yourself and just look at it, you don’t consider your mood..."

After speaking, he lowered his head and held the doorknob tightly with his hands, until the green veins on the back of his white hands bulged, his voice choked up, and he cried: "Mr. Lu, do you think I'm perverted?"

Lu Peichen frowned, and his heart softened. After all, Xu Maidong has not yet become the person who has no bottom line against Fu Wenyu in the original book.

His parents were not there, and he experienced a lot of grief. He lived in this unfamiliar mansion, and there was no one around him to confide in his troubles and sorrows. He could only bear it silently in his heart.

Maybe if Fu Wenyu hadn't given him a little warmth a few years ago, he wouldn't have always liked Fu Wenyu so much, who later obviously treated him badly.

Lu Peichen sighed, turned around and walked in front of him, took the hand with sharp knuckles on the doorknob, put it down, and said in a low voice, "I never felt that way, and I really don't mind."

Xu Maidong still lowered his head, his voice trembling slightly: "You are lying, so why are you deliberately avoiding me these days?"

Lu Peichen didn't know how to answer for a while, could it be that he had thoughts about him and thought they knew each other in a previous life, but he was the protagonist who always liked Scum Gong?

Lu Peichen pondered for a moment, then half-truthfully said: "I'm going to get started with some businesses of the Lu Group recently, and I also have to take care of my own company. I'm very busy and tired every day, so I don't mean to hide from you."

Xu Maidong quietly reached out and pinched the corner of Lu Peichen's clothes, his voice was still sobbing, and he said, "Is what Mr. Lu said true?"

Lu Peichen didn't change his face, and said, "Really."

Xu Maidong didn't speak, and he didn't know whether he believed it or not. After a short silence, he said tentatively: "Then, does Mr. Lu have time tomorrow? If so... can you send me to school?"

Lu Peichen nodded helplessly, seeing Xu Maidong kept his head down, and said "hmm", his heart moved, he suddenly raised his face with his hand, and said, "You are a boy, you can cry if you can't do this."

He thought he would see a pitiful face with wet eyes and tear stains, but found that only the end of the eyes was slightly red on that face.

Where is there any trace of crying?

Lu Peichen was silent.

Knowing that Mr. Lu didn't reject him, and even took the initiative to touch him, Xu Maidong finally felt relieved. He didn't expect to be punctured the next moment, and he pretended to be pitiful. Immediately, he was so embarrassed that he wanted to drill a hole in the ground and jump in to bury him.

Lu Peichen looked at Xu Maidong's flushed face and ear tips, and snorted, with an imperceptible pampering tone in his voice, "Little liar."

Xu Maidong stammered, "No, it's not, what I just said was the truth."

Lu Peichen deliberately teased him, pondered for a while, saw that the child was really about to cry, and then said: "I know, I'm kidding you, it's late, go back and rest."

"Good night, Mr. Lu." Xu Maidong reluctantly let go of the corner of his clothes, his eyes lingering.

"OK, good night."

The next day, Lu Peichen drove Xu Maidong back to school.

When Xu Maidong unbuckled his seat belt and was about to get out of the car, Lu Peichen suddenly called to him: "Wait."

Lu Peichen recalled that the school painting exhibition that Xu Maidong participated in for the first time in the book would be rejected because of a senior, because that painting had a high overlap with the senior's painting, and the tutors who selected the paintings were more inclined to the freshmen. Senior.

The book is written from Xu Maidong's perspective, so he doesn't know some things. He only knows that later Xu Maidong found out that his draft was stolen by Fang He, who likes Fu Wenyu. With spirituality, he had a wrong idea, not only let him be rejected by the art exhibition, but even held the draft of Xu Maidong's painting behind him, designed to frame Xu Maidong for copying him, and made Xu Maidong's reputation in school discredited.

Naturally, Xu Maidong would not sit still, he wanted to use his own way to punish him, and the evidence was found, but the scumbag Fu Wenyu begged him to let Fang He go, promising to clarify the fact that he did not plagiarize.

The sweetheart who had always been insecure towards him kept pleading and persuading him, and even agreed to date him. Xu Maidong struggled for several days and agreed.

Lu Peichen looked at Xu Maidong, and frowned. Xu Maidong saw that his expression was suddenly not very good, his heart 'thumped', and he asked suspiciously and anxiously: "Mr. Lu, what's wrong?"

Seeing how nervous he was because of his expression, Lu Peichen stretched his brows, sighed, and said seriously: "You remember to be careful with your drawings and drafts at school, so that they won't be taken away by others, and the same goes for the paintings in this exhibition."

Wen Lifang and somehow stole Xu Maidong's sketches, and now the plot has been changed a lot, the art exhibition was moved forward, the exhibited paintings were different, and Xu Maidong was not with Fu Wenyu, but just in case, Lu Peichen still reminded him.

Xu Maidong didn't understand why Lu Peichen suddenly mentioned this, but what Mr. Lu said must have his reasons, so he obediently nodded in agreement.

"Well, if you choose, remember to call me to have a look." Lu Peichen's lips slightly raised.

Xu Maidong smiled openly, with scorching brilliance in his eyes, and said, "Definitely!"

After watching Xu Maidong enter school, Lu Peichen drove to the company slowly.

It seems that their relationship went back to when Xu Maidong first went to school, Lu Peichen did not deliberately alienate Xu Maidong, and Xu Maidong acted as if nothing had happened, and still sent him messages on time to say hello sooner or later, and said something interesting from time to time.

It's just that Lu Peichen responded to messages much faster, and occasionally asked about Xu Maidong's current situation at school.

A month later, on the day of the school art exhibition, Lu Peichen waited all morning, but did not receive any message from Xu Maidong.
