Love you No.17 years

It's useless to talk about this kind of thing with others, let alone this is a child.

Lu Ming kept his sense of proportion and didn't tell Xiao Yu too much, especially the "details" when the two of them got along... He just confessed to Xiao Yu's gossip, and at the same time, he got some key information from Xiao Yu.

For example, Xie Chenjun did go for a "commercial marriage" this time.There was a problem with his family's business before, and it once faced a break in the capital chain.At that time, Xie Qun urgently went to someone to borrow some money from a well-known private lending group nearby.

Isn't that the old "loan usury"?His father was in that line of work before, but later it became stricter, and he didn't get involved in family affairs, but he remembered that he still kept the contact information of a few uncles...

Lu Ming called some of his father's old friends to find out about the situation.Xie Qun did borrow money, but he repaid it quickly. It is likely that the so-called "construction king" borrowed money from him.

It is said that the boss surnamed Wu is going to start changing careers to shopping malls and hotel buildings, so that there will be some intersection with Xie's catering business, so it is indeed a good idea for the two to join forces.

So Lu Ming is completely unable to help.he thought miserably.If he had also taken over what his father did back then, maybe he would still be able to rescue Xie Chenjun from that Tan Yuanyuan now.

But it's too late now.

Lu Ming's life went on as usual.It's time to go to work, it's time to go to class.On the surface, it seems that he is not much different from before, but only he knows that a certain place in his heart has been severely dug out.

Xiao Zhenghan also heard some rumors and came to see Lu Ming.Xiao Zhenghan's health has improved recently, and he is helping with clerical work in an office on the street.

Previously, his small business had already been converted into cash, and he had spent all his medicine in the past two years.After being ill for so long, he who used to be vigorous has gradually lost weight, and he is not as energetic as before.But for some reason, as long as he stays by Lu Ming's side, Lu Ming can feel at ease for no reason.

"I said you, do you want to think about it again?" Xiao Zhenghan stood in front of the window and said with his back to him.

"Considering what?"

"Try again, fight for it..."

Lu Ming sighed: "What else are you fighting for? I said it myself. I hope he will live a 'normal' life one day."

"Then do you want you to be like this? Hide yourself, be sad alone, and heal alone?"

"What's wrong with me now?" Lu Ming smiled wryly, "Isn't I pretty good? Now I have gained a reputation and become the best piano teacher in Pingcheng. Of course, Xiao Yu is also responsible for this. My opening the door Big disciple, haha, you've done me honor..."

Xiao Yu had just won a prize in the provincial piano competition a few months ago, and since then, more and more parents of students came to Lu Ming to learn piano.

It can be said that his "career" has unknowingly started to flourish, he can't stop, and he has no room for himself to stop.

"But I think it's not just you who are suffering right now," Xiao Zhenghan sat beside him, "Xiao Jun must also be very sad. He is a kind person, and it is impossible for him to let his parents and his father's hard-earned business go unnoticed." He is planning to trade his own life for the peace of the family."

"I know, why can't I feel Xie Chenjun's pain? Being forced to marry, have children, and be with someone he doesn't love for the rest of his life, I know he must be even more sad."

"That--"

"But he said that he wants to be a "good man", and he is indeed a good man. Back then, he cried in front of me because he was a little bit off in thought. Now he is going to get married, even if he doesn't love, he I will definitely be responsible to the end.”

Lu Ming paused, and said, "That's why he told me so resolutely, 'no more contact'..."

Xiao Zhenghan patted him silently.

Lu Ming lowered his head in pain and murmured: "But what can I do? Can I still snatch him out? His parents only have him as a son. If he leaves, what should they do?"

Xiao Zhenghan seemed to have remembered something, and his expression changed.Lu Ming noticed this and raised his head: "I'm not talking about you—"

"I understand," Xiao Zhenghan said, "What Huai Ya and I did back then is really not a positive case."

"But you have no other choice," Lu Ming said, "you don't want to do this either, do you?"

"Um……"

Neither of them wanted to continue chatting on this topic.

Time passed day by day, winter was gone, and spring came quietly in this small city.

After Xie Chenjun disappeared from his life, Lu Ming didn't like to stay at home alone.He always felt that the empty house was disgusting no matter how it looked. Although he spent a lot of time at home alone, when he saw those familiar corners, Xie Chenjun's figure appeared in front of him all the time.

He really missed his little Jun too much.

·

Lu Ming sat by the court alone, watching the group of teenagers running and jumping in the court.

He has brought Xiao Yu here more often recently, and now that the child is older, it is not like when he was a child who only wanted to practice the piano.Sometimes a lot of girls would come to the sidelines to watch, and several loves would come to deliver water and towels to Xiao Yu.After all, that child is outstanding regardless of his appearance and temperament, and what is the title of "Prince of Piano"...

Lu Ming drank his saliva, feeling lost.It's good to be young, at least there is a future, unlike him, he is probably doomed to live alone in this life...

He thought of Xiao Yu's father's illness again, and thought that one day that person would definitely leave them, and then he would not even have the last person to confide in.What to do, it's even more sad...

"Teacher Lu, be careful!—"

Lu Ming raised his head and quickly caught the speeding basketball.He had already played a few rounds, and he didn't want to play anymore, so he threw the ball back and continued to think about things by himself.

At this time, Xiao Yu ran to the side and said something to the two people on the sidelines, and then he ran back with a flustered look on his face.

"What's wrong with you?" Lu Ming frowned and said, "What the hell?"

"Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu, it's not good!"

"What's wrong? Who's wrong?"

"Brother Jun—"

"What's wrong with Xiaojun!"

"No, no, it's not what's wrong with him - it's him, his wedding date has been set, it's next month!"

Lu Ming breathed a sigh of relief: "I still thought why..."

"Mr. Lu, why are you so calm?"

"Otherwise, what can I do? Wrap a big red envelope and go to the wedding? ——All right, take the red envelope for me, and I won't go."

Besides, he didn't invite Lu Ming...

"No, Teacher Lu, you can't just sit and wait like this!" Xiao Yu seemed more anxious than him, "You, you should at least grab a kiss!"

"..."

Lu Ming really regretted throwing the ball just now.

"What the hell is going on in your head every day, you little bastard!"

"Oh, oh, old Lu, please spare me!——"

"Also call me Lao Lu!—"

April 4th, Xie Chenjun's wedding day.

Lu Ming stared at the calendar for a long time.That guy is really ruthless, April 4 this year is Lu Ming's birthday in the lunar calendar.

He knew that Lu Ming had always lived only on the lunar calendar, so maybe he did it on purpose...

Lu Ming could only moan and sigh at home to pass the time, but Xiao Yu, that brat, had already persuaded him ten times a day to "grab a bride".

·

"Why not?" Xiao Yu came again that evening, "Brother Jun said yesterday that he asked me to play a piano piece at his wedding to cheer up the fun. Teacher Lu, why don't you go? It's more appropriate for you to go!"

"Why am I suitable?"

"Think about it, you are in a suit and leather shoes, go to the wedding to play a piano piece, and then when the two of you are about to say 'I do', you rush onto the stage, grab Brother Jun and run away - not only snatching the bride, but also the groom, It will be the number one news in Pingcheng the next day!"

Lu Ming's hair was covered with black lines: "And then?"

"Then? What then?"

"Then we two 'big news', how will we live in Pingcheng in the future?"

"Then don't stay here anymore," Xiao Yu said, spreading his hands, "Didn't Brother Jun originally want to work in Shanghai? Why don't you go to a big city together? You can also go abroad. Your love abroad will definitely be successful." Accepted. What's the name of that movie, Brokeback Mountain, right? Have you seen it? It's about two men—"

"You said you were young—"

"Oh, don't call me 'young' anymore!" Xiao Yu jumped up, "Look at you, an adult, you have lived for more than thirty years, and you don't dare to do anything, you only know how to sigh here?"

"..."

"If you want me to say that you are not as good as someone like me at a 'young age', if the person I like is getting married, I will definitely go grab a kiss!"

"..."

Before Xiao Yu finished speaking, he was already in the posture of running away, but he saw that Lu Ming had no intention of chasing him, so he sat back again.

Lu Ming looked at him straight, his eyes were like knives: "You are right, I have lived for more than [-] years, and my life has been a failure. I can't do anything, and I dare not do anything, even to keep myself I don't even have the courage to love."

"Mr. Lu, I didn't mean that..."

"Have you ever thought that once I leave like this, the reputation and students accumulated over the past ten years will be completely gone," Lu Ming said. When he can become a teacher and make a name for me, then he starts to recruit more students and earn more income, right?"

"Well……"

"Do you think I'm working so hard now for myself?"

"!"

Xiao Yu was astonished.Only this time did he realize what it was that had been imprisoning Lu Ming.

Not himself, because he doesn't need or care about many things at all.

He is for Xiao Yu's father, at least before Xiao Yu grows up, he will bear all the expenses of Xiao Zhenghan's medical treatment.

Xiao Yu's eyes suddenly turned red.Feeling guilty, he lowered his head and said nothing.Lu Ming felt that his temper and patience had improved greatly compared to before.He touched Xiao Yu's head and said softly:

"Besides, he is the only son in Brother Jun's family. He can't leave his parents behind, right? You let him run away like this. How will his parents behave in the future?"

Xiao Yu thought for a while and asked, "Then my mother left my grandparents, did she do something wrong?"

"That matter, no matter how you put it, it can't be said that it was entirely their responsibility. They had no choice back then, so they had to run out—"

"Why didn't I have to choose? What happened back then?"

"Don't ask me this..."

"The reason why you don't let me find my uncle is because my uncle will resent my mother for leaving all the care of the elderly to him, right?"

"Uh, it's really not—"

"Mr. Lu," Xiao Yuteng stood up, never as serious as now, "If we sincerely apologize to our grandparents and uncles, ask their forgiveness, and ask them to help us temporarily, then you—— Is Dad's business here?"

"..."

"You still have money to help Brother Jun's family's business, and his family won't force him to get married... Then you can take Brother Jun to escape and live the life you want to live?——Right?"

Lu Ming stayed there.
