The operation went smoothly, but Chen Wenguo was old after all, and his consciousness was not so clear after the anesthesia, so Chen Zhu couldn't talk to him for the time being.

Chen Zhu sat by the bed, using a wet kerchief to scrub grandpa little by little.

In my memory, Chen Wenguo's broad and strong palms were covered with calluses at some point, and only a layer of wrinkled skin wrapped the shrunken bones.

The hands holding the ruler and urging him to grow up also awkwardly held him to see the spring flowers and play in the stream.

Now, Chen Zhu took Chen Wenguo's hand again, but he was speechless.

He can't turn back time, he only hopes that he can grow up quickly.

But this time, Chen Zhu was no longer as restless as before, he seemed to finally have a harbor where he could dock, and he had a chance to breathe.

"Okay, get the corresponding equipment ready as soon as possible." The man turned his head, showed Chen Zhu a comforting smile, and then continued to arrange everything calmly, "After the private jet is in place, we will go over here immediately." .”

Chen Zhu held Chen Wenguo's hand and said softly, "Grandpa, I made a big mistake, I'm sorry."

"But," Chen Zhu whispered to himself, "I don't regret it."

The transfer matter went very smoothly under Xu Lanting's arrangement.After getting off the plane, Chen Wenguo was pushed into the operating room.

After Chen Zhu signed the consent form for surgical treatment, several experts who had prepared earlier immediately discussed Chen Wenguo's condition and came up with a preliminary surgical plan.

Watching his grandfather being pushed into the operating room, Chen Zhu waited nervously at the door with his heart in his hands.

Even though he knew that the risk of the operation was not great, he was still like a sinner waiting to be judged, waiting for the final judgment of fate.

The man embraced him from behind with his strong hands, and Chen Zhu fell into Xu Lanting's gentle embrace.

"Don't be afraid." Xu Lanting took the trouble to comfort the person in his arms over and over again, not only was he not a little impatient, but he liked the feeling of being dependent on Chen Zhu.

Chen Zhu leaned against Xu Lanting's arms, he was exhausted from running around for days.

"Hey, listen to brother." Xu Lanting half hugged him, and took him to the lounge next door, "Once you sleep, everything will pass."

A person who is used to resisting everything by himself was suddenly carried out of the rainstorm into the eaves, with a tile covering his head, how could Chen Zhu remain calm.

Xu Lanting is like a challenge given to him by fate, giving him joy, pain, despair, and hope.

Under Xu Lanting's thin lips, Chen Zhu finally tasted the warmth of the world.In the man's gentle kiss, he closed his eyes briefly and reassuringly.

The lights in the operating room were slowly turned off, Xu Lanting extinguished the cigarette, "How?"

"It is basically not life-threatening, but it will definitely have an impact on future life, mainly depending on the follow-up rehabilitation treatment."

"Well." Xu Lanting said to the assistant beside him, "All subsequent rehabilitation treatments require the best physical therapists."

Assistant: "Mr. Xu, don't worry, we will arrange the best for all subsequent treatments."

After Xu Lanting finished giving orders, he was going back to the lounge to wake up Chen Zhu.But the personal phone in his hand suddenly rang.

He frowned and looked at the caller with the note "A Zhu classmate". In his vague memory, it seemed to be a boy with glasses.

"Hello?" Xu Lanting was a little impatient, after all Jiang Jianren did not leave a good impression on him.

Jiang Jianren said calmly on the other end of the phone: "There is something I want to talk to you about."

Without waiting for Xu Lanting to refuse, Jiang Jianren said the name of a coffee shop.

"I know you are not Chen Zhu's brother." Jiang Jianren's cold voice came, "I'll wait for you in the coffee shop."

Xu Lanting was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "What do you want to do?"

"I'll wait for you." After finishing speaking, the phone hung up.

Xu Lanting squinted his eyes as he looked at the magnificent dusk outside the window.

When Chen Zhu woke up, he learned the result of the operation from his assistant, and his heart that had been hanging for a day finally fell to the ground slowly.

"But the elderly will still be in the ICU for observation for a few days, and you can't visit the sick just yet."

Chen Zhu nodded, and looked around with a pair of sleepy eyes.

The assistant seemed to see Chen Zhu's doubts, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xu has something urgent just now, so he left temporarily."

"Cough..." Chen Zhu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when someone saw through his mind. He nodded and didn't speak any more.

After the assistant left, Chen Zhu picked up the phone and sent a text message to Xu Lanting.

"where?"

In just two words, it was the first time in Chen Zhu's life that he asked about Xu Lanting's whereabouts.

He was finally able to ask questions legitimately and as a boyfriend.

Soon, Xu Lanting's message came back.

"Outside, be back soon. Be good."

Like any ordinary couple, they talked back and forth about the trivialities of life.

"What's for dinner", "Is the pizza too greasy", "I want to eat fried chicken"

Chen Zhu inadvertently caught a glimpse of his own appearance on the reflective wall.

He obviously didn't smile, but there were smiles in his eyes and brows.

It was only then that Chen Zhu realized that it turned out that liking someone really couldn't be hidden.

He suddenly wanted to eat candy, "Brother, I want to eat dessert."

Xu Lanting: "Little brat."

Across the screen, Chen Zhu could imagine Xu Lanting's lazy and gentle expression at the moment.

Soon, Xu Lanting sent another message: "I like sweets so much, when your birthday comes, I will make you a cake myself."

Only then did Chen Zhu remember that his birthday was approaching.

I don't know how many years I haven't had my birthday.Chen Zhu looked back and thought about it, since his parents passed away, he seemed to have lost his qualifications as a child overnight, and never had a birthday cake again.

Chen Zhu: "Brother, thank you."

Xu Lanting didn't reply anymore, and slowly put down the phone, where is there a trace of tenderness in his eyes?

"So, what is your purpose?"

Jiang Jianren put down his cup, pushed his glasses, and said, "Leave Chen Zhu."

Xu Lanting sneered, but soon his smile froze on his lips.

Because, Jiang Jianren suddenly threw out a photo in his hand.

In the photo, Chen Zhu's figure was very blurry, but it clearly reflected the young man's blushing side face.

The boy and the man hugged each other tightly and kissed selflessly under the shade of a tree.

After being dazed for a moment, Xu Lanting quickly returned to his normal posture.

With a light flick of his fingertips, he slowly flipped through the photos.The person who had been in the business circle for a long time calmed down quickly, his eyes were filled with undercurrents, but his face remained calm.

Xu Lanting calmly waited for the opponent to show his cards.

Sure enough, seeing Xu Lanting's casual attitude, Jiang Jianren couldn't help but said angrily: "Xu Lanting, if you want to play, there will naturally be a lot of people coming to your door, but you can't delay Chen Zhu."

Jiang Jianren said coldly: "Chen Zhu is not in the same way as you at all."

"Oh?" Xu Lanting said with a smile, "Could it be that you think he's the same as you?"

Jiang Jianren became furious that the teenage boy was Xu Lanting's opponent.

"This has nothing to do with you! But, you can't delay Chen Zhu's future." Jiang Jianren said righteously, "He is the pride of all the teachers and our No. [-] Middle School. Such people get mixed up."

"What kind of person is he—" Xu Lanting threw the photo in his hand like throwing waste paper, "What kind of person am I?"

"Xu Lanting, I know your background, so you don't have to put on an air in front of me." Jiang Jianren found out after a little inquiring that Xu Lanting is a famous playboy in the capital, and his private life is extremely chaotic. Jiang Jianren: "Xu Lanting, if you want to You can find other people if you play big, why delay Chen Zhu?"

Delay... Xu Lanting sneered, co-author Chen Zhu being with him is a delay?

Xu Lanting folded his arms, not paying attention to the boy in front of him, "Oh? What if I just refuse?"

"You!" Jiang Jianren clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "You are a scum."

"Student Jiang, secretly following, secretly filming, and threatening behind the scenes, someone who can do such things is probably not a gentleman."

Jiang Jianren took a deep breath, looking behind the lens with deep hostility, "Yes, I am despicable. But I just want Chen Zhu to return to the journey. You have no idea how many people's expectations Chen Zhu is carrying, You don't know Chen Zhu's pursuit and dream."

Finally, the man's eyes moved.What Jiang Jianren said was indeed good. Xu Lanting had never understood the pursuit and ideals of the person next to him.

But so what?He and Chen Zhu have only just started, and from now on, he will naturally understand all these things one by one.

"Jiang Jianren." Xu Lanting sat up straighter, leaning slightly to approach.

The aura around the man changed, and Jiang Jianren stopped suddenly, looking straight at the man who suddenly became powerful.

"As you said, you asked about me behind my back, so why do you think you can impress me with these photos, huh?"

Indeed, the Xu family's family is so powerful that it is easy to crush an ant like Jiang Jianren to death.

Jiang Jianren said coldly: "I have nothing to do with you. But if Chen Zhu refuses to repent, I will use my own method to bring him back to the right path."

All his life, he remembered that when he first met Chen Zhu, that high-spirited young man walked up to the podium unyieldingly. Under the lights of the podium, the young man was shining brightly.

From disobedience at the beginning to sympathy at the end, Chen Zhu was his only friend and the only person he truly admired during these three years.

Until, Jiang Jianren accidentally saw Chen Zhu kissing his so-called "brother" in an empty corner...

Jiang Jianren was shocked and puzzled.He didn't understand why Chen Zhu wanted to get involved with someone like Xu Lanting, let alone understand Chen Zhu's "self-willed depravity" behavior.

No matter what the reason was, Jiang Jianren could not just watch Chen Zhu being ruined by a scum like Xu Lanting.

"You don't have to care about the eyes of people around you," Jiang Jianren put away the photos one by one, "Where's Chen Zhu?"

"The proud son of the sky, the light of the [-]th high school, the elegant gentleman—" Jiang Jianren looked at Xu Lanting with dark and paranoid eyes, "But secretly betrayed his body and was willing to be your little lover who Xu Lanting can't see."

"Those teachers who have high hopes for Chen Zhu, those students who respect Chen Zhu, and even Chen Zhu's family members... Do you think Chen Zhu will care about their vision and opinions?"

The man on the opposite side was silent, but Jiang Jianren inexplicably felt an unprecedented sense of oppression. He tried his best to sit upright and looked directly into Xu Lanting's gaze without avoiding it.

"That's it." The man sneered, as if he didn't pay attention to Jiang Jianren's words, "What does his reputation, Chen Zhu, have to do with me?"

Jiang Jianren's body froze, and he heard Xu Lanting's casual tone, "It's just a little thing, what does his life and death have to do with me?"

Xu Lanting raised his eyes, his face was calm, but his hands on his knees were already faintly bruised.

"Since you know what kind of person I am, you should understand how much Chen Zhu weighs with me." Xu Lanting smiled nonchalantly, "The so-called 'pillar' in your eyes is only one A poor boy with nothing but a taste in bed—"

Before Jiang Jianren was furious, Xu Lanting approached, his eyebrows lowered, and an undercurrent surged in his deep eyes.

"Chen Zhu is just a little thing with me."

"Until I get tired of playing, he can only stay by my side, understand?" Xu Lanting picked up the car keys and got up, "You little brat's tricks, save it for yourself to use slowly."

The man turned and left indifferently, ignoring the anger and threats of the man behind him.
