"Mr. Xu, the public relations department has used all available channels, and the public opinion has basically shifted to you and..." The assistant paused, and then continued, "The Xu family and the Shen family have a tendency to marry. "

The director of the financial department finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, the confidence in the market is not bad. Although the stock price has fallen, there will be no major problems.

Things seemed to be resolved smoothly, and everything was the best arrangement.

But Xu Lanting's face was still gloomy.The few people under him did not dare to speak out easily. For a while, needles could be heard in the office, and the surrounding atmosphere was very depressing.

Seeing this situation, Xu Jiang couldn't help feeling even more disturbed, with the mood of apologizing for his father.

After everyone left, Xu Jiang said eagerly: "Tang, cousin..."

The man's eyes raised slowly, and his deep gaze swept straight through the thin lenses.

Xu Jiang's back was sweating immediately, he didn't understand why his father wanted to fight against such a living Hades!

Seeing that the Xu family is in Xu Lanting's hands, no matter how upset Xu Yonglian is, he is destined not to be Xu Lanting's opponent.

Xu Jiang swallowed, and wanted to find a topic to chat with first.Chen Zhu's face suddenly flashed in his mind, remembering that Xu Lanting seemed to care about that kid some time ago.

"I said, you have stabilized the confidence of the market in the name of marriage, your little lover won't be angry, haha." Xu Jiang scratched his head and smiled awkwardly.

The long silence made Xu Jiang's laughter particularly abrupt.Xu Jiang coughed and realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing, "Well, cousin, I'm sorry, you also know my dad, he—"

"If you came today to plead for Xu Yonglian, then you can go back."

Xu Jiang was restless. If he went back like this today, then he could foresee what would happen to his father.

"Cousin, take it for the sake of our being a family..." Xu Jiang himself felt that this was ridiculous. Back then, in order to avoid the influence of his father, Xu Lanting's family didn't live in the Xu family until he was three years old. name.

Xu Jiang changed the subject, and said, "Fortunately, this time it all depends on your supernatural powers. Isn't there nothing wrong with our family?" Xu Jiang thought for a while, and then said, "Next time, next time I will organize I'll pay you for this game. Hey, yes, next time you take Chen Zhu to my car factory, he can choose any car in the factory, and play as he wants!"

When Chen Zhu was mentioned, Xu Lanting had a tinge of humanity in his eyes.He raised his hand to take off his glasses, a little tired, "You can go back."

Xu Jiang saw that Xu Lanting's expression was not good, so he didn't dare to talk nonsense, "OK, next time you bring Chen Zhu to play, I'll be waiting for you anytime haha!"

Xu Lanting closed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose, knowing that the matter had been perfectly resolved, but he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.

In Xu Lanting's eyes, the so-called marriage was just a play on the occasion, he didn't think about what all this meant to Chen Zhu—or, Xu Lanting didn't think about it on purpose.

Even the so-called "boyfriend" had to temporarily back down in front of the entire Xu family and Xu Lanting's career.

Even for the authenticity of the news, Xu Lanting even transferred the monitoring of his alma mater with Chen Zhu through the school.

In Xu Lanting's survival rules, when necessary, anyone or anything can be a pawn in his hand.

Therefore, Shen Zhixia replaced Chen Zhu and became the legitimate lover who walked beside Xu Lanting in the sun.

As for Chen Zhu, it was his invisible shadow hidden in the sun.

He personally arranged a good show - "Childhood sweetheart", "Deep feelings", "Revisiting his alma mater". With his sensitivity to the market and public opinion, Xu Lanting successfully deceived everyone and rescued the company from the crisis .

Obviously, everything went so smoothly and naturally.However, after Xu Lanting became famous, he rarely experienced the joy of success.

He always had the illusion that everything was not as it should be.

He should have booked flowers and wine last night, and accompanied his beloved under the romantic starry sky, enjoying the fireworks show specially prepared for Chen Zhu.

That seemingly stubborn but soft-hearted "little gentleman" might be moved to tears.

Then they will embrace each other and kiss under the bright fireworks.

He should have, at least, said happy birthday to Chen Zhu when he turned 20.

"Tsk." Thinking of this, Xu Lanting frowned with a headache, suppressing the inexplicable boredom and guilt in his heart.

Xu Lanting can fully enjoy the happiness brought by love, but instinctively resists the risks and uncertainties brought by love.

This uncontrollable emotion and the involuntary urge to give up everything for the other party made Xu Lanting instinctively aware of the danger.

He didn't want to put himself in such an uncontrollable and dangerous situation.

Therefore, he ignored Chen Zhu's calls time and time again, not even giving a simple response.

To put it bluntly, Xu Lanting didn't fully deliver his sincere intentions.

He felt that he was special enough to Chen Zhu.As for more, he needs the verification of time.

At least for now, Xu Lanting is not willing to tell all about himself.

Xu Lanting closed his eyes, planning to calm down, and then patiently coax the kid who must be angry.

After leaving the hospital, the sound of fireworks piercing the night sky suddenly came from a distance.

Chen Zhu looked up and saw the LED light signs in the city center slowly changing. Standing in the cold wind, he guessed that some rich man might be proposing to his beloved.

After a while, as the fireworks lifted into the sky, the LED light board also changed into a picture of two people cuddling each other.

"marryme"

Looking at the bright English characters in the night sky, Chen Zhu couldn't help smiling.

People who can be loved like this should be very happy.

The blatant love, the passionate, unreserved love, the love that the whole world wants to know, is something Chen Zhu has never felt before.

It doesn't matter, Chen Zhu thought, he just turned 20 today, and in the next few decades, someone will love him unreservedly and passionately.

Chen Zhu stood quietly on the spot, pursed his lips, and watched the grand love of others alone.

The mobile phone in his pocket rang weakly a few times, Chen Zhu took out the mobile phone that was about to run out of battery, and couldn't help smiling when he saw the caller.

Xu Lanting's departure and arrival are always so inappropriate.

When he was full of enthusiasm, the other party disappeared; when he was dying and about to lose power, Xu Lanting remembered that there was another him named "boyfriend" in the corner.

"Hello, are you Mr. Chen Zhuchen?"

Chen Zhu smelled the residual sulfur smell after the fireworks fell in the air, and responded slowly.

"It's like this..." Perhaps the assistant also thought it was ridiculous, he straightened his words, and then said slowly, "Since Mr. Xu thinks that your college entrance examination results are too good, so, how many times have we applied for you here?" a foreign university."

Chen Zhu interrupted the words on the other side, and said coldly: "Where is Xu Lanting."

After all, the chief executive's crisis has almost been resolved. Could it be that there is still no extra time to deal with his "little trouble"?

The assistant hesitated for a while, and then said: "Student Chen, it's like this... Our Mr. Xu means that we want you to go to a foreign institution of higher learning for a period of time..."

"So, you came to inform me."

"That's not what it means." The assistant looked nervously in the direction of the office, "Mr. Xu specifically explained this matter—"

Chen Zhu: "Okay." He knew that Xu Lanting's behavior in the company had always been ruthless, and he didn't want to embarrass the people under him. "Please tell me in person, Mr. Xu, if you have time."

Chen Zhu smiled wryly, "After all, I'm his 'boyfriend' anyway, right?"

The assistant responded repeatedly, and he involuntarily glanced towards the direction of the office from the corner of his eye - there was a connection there, and he could clearly hear the conversation between him and Chen Zhu.

After a while, the man got up and answered the phone.

"Azhu." Xu Lanting pressed his forehead, suppressing his irritability.

Chen Zhu was relatively calm. He walked slowly in the night, and clusters of fireworks bloomed in the night sky above his head.

The boy seems to be walking in a canvas against a dark blue background, but on the canvas is the joy of others, and every bloom of joy on it has nothing to do with him.

Like a horse watching flowers, he passes by other people's happiness, but walks towards his own misfortune step by step.

"Xu Lanting, are you free now?" Chen Zhu's voice was a little blurred in the ear-piercing sound of fireworks.

The person on the other end of the phone paused, then sighed softly, "Baby, are you angry, huh?"

Xu Lanting licked his lips, tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and said softly, "I'm sorry baby. I'll come over later, let's celebrate together, shall we?"

"Xu Lanting." Chen Zhu walked in front of a convenience store. He looked at his own reflection on the glass and saw his slightly swollen eyes and the unhealed wound on his arm.

"You can explain." He didn't want to go around with Xu Lanting, and he didn't want to waste extra time on someone who didn't care about him. "The matter of recording, studying abroad, and your engagement."

The man was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice, "Azhu, you are so smart that there should be no misunderstanding."

Chen Zhu sneered: "Yes. The recording is to protect me; studying abroad is to consider my future; marriage is an expedient measure...Xu Lanting," he gritted his teeth, "I've already figured out the reasons for you, isn't it? save trouble?"

"Azhu—"

"Shut up!" Chen Zhu clenched his fists and growled, "Xu Lanting, your time is so precious that you don't need to waste your extra words on me. Just tell me, what will you do if I refuse to study abroad?" I?"

Chen Zhu: "Since in your eyes, my ideals and pursuits are so insignificant, you must send me away no matter what method you use, right? Mr. Xu!"

Xu Lanting was also sullen, "Chen Zhu, who am I doing all this for? If it wasn't for protecting your reputation, your title of 'Heaven's Chosen One', and preserving your dignity in front of your teachers and classmates, why should I abandon you?" So many things?"

"Yes." Chen Zhu looked up at the bright night sky, suddenly feeling powerless, "In your eyes, that's all about me, Chen Zhu, right? In the teacher's eyes, the pillar of the people, the light of the Sixteenth High School? Heh... "Chen Zhu smiled wryly, "Without these auras, do you, Xu Lanting, feel that there is no sense of novelty, no sense of accomplishment to conquer, right?"

Chen Zhu poured out all the emotions that had been suppressed in his heart for several days, "Mr. Xu, that's why you fell in love with me in the first place. Without the aura of attention, how can I, Chen Zhu, be worthy of your bed?"

Chen Zhu believed that what Xu Lanting said in that recording was to protect himself.

But it was hard for him to convince himself that he didn't care at all.

"It's just a little thing, what does his life and death have to do with me?";

"The so-called 'pillar' in your eyes is here, but a poor boy with nothing, except for a little taste in bed—"

That passage may not be what Xu Lanting said now.

However, it was the former Xu Lanting who told Chen Zhu.

It was almost predictable that if the former Xu Lanting encountered such a situation, what would happen to Chen Zhu with that man's usual style.

Ruined and ruined, with nothing... Then, just like the fate of Xu Lanting's countless lovers, he completely disappeared from his world, and was thrown into the corner like a discarded product that no one cared about.

Both of them were wrong in the very beginning.

Chen Zhu originally thought that a correct value could also be obtained from a wrong start.

But reality tells him that wrong prerequisites will only lead to more wrong results.

So no matter how detoured to get the correct answer, it will only go in the opposite direction, getting farther and farther away from the correct value.

"Chen Zhu, is it necessary to speak so harshly?" Xu Lanting lowered his voice, losing the patience to coax others.

Chen Zhu: "No need." He slowly leaned against the cold wall, like a prey that had fallen into a trap by mistake and could only be slaughtered, "Say it, Xu Lanting—Mr. What is the arrangement?"

Someone knocked on the door, "President Xu, there is something wrong with Xu Yonglian." Xu Lanting frowned and waved.

Chen Zhu was still waiting for Xu Lanting's reply, but what he got in return was the man's perfunctory coaxing.

"Azhu, don't think too much..." There was a noise on the other end of the phone, followed by Xu Lanting's impatient voice, "Let them wait!"

Chen Zhu heard the man using the coaxing rhetoric familiarly, "Hey, let's have a good chat when I get back. Baby, wait for me."

Before Chen Zhu could speak, a cold busy tone came from the other end of the phone.

The night wind was blowing towards his face, it was clearly Xia Ye, but Chen Zhu felt completely cold all over.

The 20-year-old boy walked into the convenience store amidst the hissing sound of fireworks rising into the sky.

He shuttled slowly among the shelves, trying to find some sweets that suit him.

Finally, Chen Zhu saw a lonely cupcake in front of the front window.

It looks like it was picked out, the cream has melted slightly, and the cute bunny ears are drooping.

Chen Zhu pointed to the remaining bunny cupcake, "Hello, I want this."

"Sorry, our store doesn't sell overnight cake products."

Chen Zhu looked at the clock in the store and said, "It's only been twenty minutes, can't it?"

Maybe Chen Zhu's appearance is too pitiful, or maybe his handsome skin has captured the heart of the clerk.

"Why don't you add me on WeChat." The clerk blushed, a little embarrassed, "If you have any problems with eating, we can help you solve it as soon as possible."

Chen Zhu settled the bill, "Sorry, I don't have WeChat."

Behind him, the clerk sighed regretfully, "Sure enough, all the handsome guys are so aloof... Who doesn't have WeChat these days, how perfunctory."

Chen Zhu returned home with the lonely little rabbit. He carefully placed the cupcake on the table, then moved a bench, and took down the old light bulb.

He changed the light bulb wholeheartedly, and the room was bright again, and it seemed even more lonely and deserted.

Chen Zhu looked at the same lonely little cake on the table and pursed his lips.

"Azhu, let's celebrate it on our birthday." The man's sweet words were still in my ears, "Baby, you just have to enjoy it when the time comes, and I will arrange everything else."

Chen Zhu believed Xu Lanting's coaxing, so he rummaged through the box and found that he didn't even buy a birthday candle.

Only then did he realize that he hadn't even waited for a "Happy Birthday" to come.

Chen Zhu smiled wryly, knowing that Xu Lanting was ungrateful but still believed in that man's nonsense, he deserved to be in such a situation.

Chen Zhu sat wearily opposite the cupcake, watching the pointer turn round and round.

Every time the hour hand turns around, the cream on the table melts a little bit, and the boy's fantasies about love also melt with it.

In the end, drowsiness welled up, and Chen Zhu simply closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

And the little cake on the table finally melted little by little in the boy's dream, and the sticky cream scattered all over the floor, no one cares about it.

It was mid-sun, when Chen Zhu was woken up by the sound of the phone.

He rubbed his aching forehead, opened his eyes and saw that it was Grandpa calling.

Chen Zhu was stunned for a moment. After coming out of the hospital, he was not ready to face Chen Wenguo.

Chen Wenguo used a ruler to force him to become a talent step by step, and had high expectations for Chen Zhu.

But Chen Zhu gave the worst answer.He failed Chen Wenguo's expectations, not only got entangled with scum like Xu Lanting, but also got stuck in a quagmire and couldn't get out.

"Grandpa..." Chen Zhu realized that his voice was unbelievably hoarse. He paused before pulling himself together, "Are you feeling better?"

Chen Wenguo was also silent at first, but when he heard Chen Zhu's hoarse voice, his heart softened, "Chen Zhu, today is your birthday."

Chen Zhu sniffed and forced a smile, "It's just the junior's birthday, it's not a big deal."

Chen Wenguo said sternly: "Twenty weak crowns, at least a whole year old, how can I be perfunctory?"

The old man stubbornly used his own way to pamper Chen Zhu calmly: "Come here, grandpa will take you to celebrate your birthday."

Chen Zhu cleaned up the melted cake on the table, scraped off the cream on the top, and the chocolate cake embryo underneath looked pretty good.

"Okay." Chen Zhu thought, he should also go to see grandpa.

But Chen Wenguo said loudly on the other end of the phone: "I don't need to come to the hospital. I'm almost fine. Living in the hospital costs money and trouble."

Chen Zhu: "But, rehabilitation treatment..."

"There's no need for that. I'm an old man. Can I still expect to be able to run and jump?" Chen Wenguo came out of the ticket hall with a cane on his hands, "It's enough to be alive. Come, grandpa will take you to have a delicious meal." of."

Hearing Chen Wenguo's old but strong voice on the phone, Chen Zhu felt very uncomfortable.

If it wasn't for worrying about the expenses and worrying that Chen Zhu owed Xu Lanting too much, how could Chen Wenguo be discharged from the hospital early?

However, Chen Zhu's shoulders are too thin, and he is not even able to bear the wind and rain alone, so how can he protect his family from the wind and rain?

Chen Zhu pursed his lips, and carefully put away the dilapidated cake.

"Grandpa, I want to eat that house's rice noodles." Chen Zhu supported Chen Wenguo, and pointed to a Shaxian snack across the way.

Chen Wenguo looked at the cleanly decorated but very small restaurant, and said dissatisfiedly, "I have already booked all the restaurants, and you have more ideas."

Chen Zhu calmly took him to the Shaxian snacks, "I just like that." At the end, he said, "Today is my birthday, grandpa, just listen to me."

"Success. My grandson has his own ideas when he grows up." Chen Wenguo looked stern, and with Chen Zhu's support, he found a seat and sat down.

"Grandpa, I've wanted to eat the rice noodles here for a long time." Chen Zhu pointed to the menu board, "You just got out of the hospital, let's drink bone soup, it's light."

Chen Wenguo, who wanted to eat fried noodles, snorted unhappily when he heard it, but didn't say much.

Chen Zhu smirked, and at least added another basket of fried dumplings.I don't know when it started, Chen Wenguo's sternness and rigidity were a little childish in Chen Zhu's eyes.

Old children, old children, Chen Zhu thought, so this is the reason.

"After eating," Chen Wenguo sat upright even in a small restaurant, "I'll go back to my hometown."

Chen Zhu refused, "Grandpa, your illness still needs follow-up treatment."

Chen Wenguo's face darkened, and he said in a cold voice, "Don't worry about my affairs. Also, I paid for all the treatment expenses. I should be the one who owes that person, and I will pay it myself."

"grandfather…"

"Chen Zhu, there is no need to discuss this matter." Chen Wenguo made a decision, and Chen Zhu was not allowed to say more, "You are a college student, how much money can you have to pay back? I am a village cadre anyway, and I have some salary."

In the end, with a straight face, Chen Wenguo told Chen Zhu: "Chen Zhu, be obedient. Grandpa knows what you want, but your first task now is to study well. You will be able to talk about other things when you have a diploma."

Chen Zhu lowered his head, eating the noodles in the bowl bit by bit.

Chen Wenguo was afraid that he would not listen, so he said, "Chen Zhu, do you hear me?"

"En." Chen Zhu responded lightly, looking at Chen Wenguo's no longer stalwart shoulders, his nose was sore, "Listen."

Before sending Chen Wenguo to the car, Chen Zhu received calls from his aunt and uncle.

On the other end of the phone, there was also the sound of a few younger brothers and sisters playing.

"When will Brother Zhuzi come back?"; "Happy birthday, Brother Zhu!"; "Zhuzi, when you come back, brother will take you to the Shaziba to fish and eat. There are a lot of people going fishing in that area recently..."

The aunt managed to grab the phone back, and was interrupted by Chen Wenguo after a few words of advice.

"A 20-year-old adult, you still worry about what he will do if he catches a cold." Saying this, Chen Wenguo still glanced at the clothes on Chen Zhu's body, thinking in his heart that he should send him some warm goose down coats for the winter.

Chen Zhu responded one by one, and sent Chen Wenguo to the car under the strict instructions of his aunt and uncle.

Chen Zhu watched the car start, Chen Wenguo stretched out his arm suddenly, and threw a paper bag at him.

"Grandpa!" Chen Zhu looked blankly at the slowly driving car, and Chen Wenguo waved at him, "Go back quickly, don't send it off!"

When the car disappeared at the end of the road, Chen Zhu looked down at the paper envelope in his hand.

He didn't even need to take it apart to know what was inside.

Chen Wenguo's love is always so quiet, and it flows slowly and gently envelops every step of Chen Zhu's growth.

Chen Zhu held the wad of money in his hand and took a deep breath.

You need to grow up faster, Chen Zhu thought, you must grow up faster.

Under the scorching sun, the teenager stayed in front of job advertisements one after another.

The summer wind brushed against the boy's fair cheeks and wiped away the sweat from his forehead.

"Sorry, we are looking for long-term jobs here, not summer jobs."

"Can you move goods like this? No, no, you can find another job."

"Our bar only accepts waitresses, sorry."

Chen Zhu found a relatively cool eaves, flipping through the recruitment leaflets in his hand one by one.

Leaving out those companies that are deceptive at first glance, in the end, only one tutoring school seems to be more suitable.

Chen Zhu made a phone call, but the other party asked for his college entrance examination results and a letter of admission to a university in order to give him a chance for an interview.

Since the results of the college entrance examination have not yet been released, Chen Zhu can only make a rough estimate: "My grades are probably in the top three in the city..."

Before Chen Zhu could finish speaking, the person on the other end of the phone hung up the phone with a sneer, and sarcastically said, "We can't afford the number one in the college entrance examination."

Chen Zhu was not discouraged by the other party's sneer, but then dialed the number of the second, third, fourth... tutoring agency.

Finally, after learning that Chen Zhu was a student of No. [-] Middle School, a family of elementary school tutors expressed that they would consider it.

No one would know that the proud son of No. [-] High School would hide under the eaves of a small house, bowing his head for a meager salary.

But the boy's shoulders were straight, and he never bent even in adversity. "Okay, thank you." Fortunately, there was still a glimmer of hope, and Chen Zhu was not discouraged.

He walked slowly on the street in the setting sun, calmly walked past magnificent luxury stores, and passed by the basketball store that he had looked at countless times, the boy finally did not stop.

He walked through the bustling street and returned to his small and dilapidated home with unhurried steps.

The pointer slid to eleven o'clock, Chen Zhu wiped his half-dried hair, and opened the English book that was about to be finished.

The ticking clock sounded in his ears, and Chen Zhu fixed his eyes on the string of English characters, but his heart was ups and downs, and his thoughts were mixed.

He thought about Xu Lanting's fickleness, but he never thought that Xu Lanting would put him in such a low position.

For a person like Chen Zhu who values ​​love and righteousness, this kind of thing of leaving his birthday boyfriend alone for a whole day is too cruel and absurd.

He realized that he had made a serious mistake, that is, he overestimated Xu Lanting's sincerity.

Even the "boyfriend" that Xu Lanting himself said would not be what Chen Zhu expected.

The lover Xu Lanting talked about was just a stronger identity than Xiaoqing'er.

Xu Lanting's career, his circle, his friends... even Xu Lanting's temporary hobbies are all in front of this so-called "boyfriend".

Chen Zhu glanced at the time and laughed at himself. He thought that a man like Xu Lanting would stop for him.

The pointer pointed to 11:30, Chen Zhu closed the book, and took out his dilapidated small mobile phone.

He didn't want to wait any longer.

On the other end of the phone is still the assistant's polite remarks.Chen Zhu said lightly: "I tell you Mr. Xu, I want to break up with him."

This time it was quicker, and the man's sullen voice came, "Chen Zhu, what are you doing?"

Chen Zhu closed his eyes in despair, and said softly, "Xu Lanting, why did you ask me to be your boyfriend back then?"

Isn't it fun to watch him fall into the abyss with high expectations?

Chen Zhu could have exited decently after Xu Lanting "tired of playing".He may be uncomfortable for a while, but he will not be as desperate as he is now.

But Xu Lanting was persistent, smashed Chen Zhu's defense line with a little promise, and cheated Chen Zhu's love away.

The man used [-]% of his sincerity as a bargaining chip, but he wanted to take away [-]% of Chen Zhu's love.

But Chen Zhu foolishly believed the man's sweet words, and in the end, mistakenly handed over everything he had, and stepped into the abyss.

Xu Lanting paused, and said in a deep voice: "Chen Zhu, I like you, and you like me too, isn't that enough?" He put his hand on the forehead and said patiently, "Yes, I'm really busy these days I may have ignored your feelings, but wait for me a little longer, be good, I'm done with it..."

"No." Chen Zhu said coldly, "I won't wait for you any longer."

On the other end of the phone, the man was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "Chen Zhu, are you angry because of what happened in the past few days? When I go back, I can explain it to you slowly..."

"Explain what?" Chen Zhu sneered, "Is it because you don't plan to force me to go abroad, or is the picture I saw on TV all hallucinations?"

Chen Zhu took a deep breath and held back, "Or, you didn't say the words in the recording?"

Xu Lanting: "You know, those words are to protect you, Chen Zhu, don't think about it."

"Yes." Chen Zhu said, "To protect me... But, Xu Lanting, let me ask you, did those words really come out of thin air?" He smiled wryly, "No, right. From the beginning, that's how you see it Mine. One of your playthings, a poor boy, a shady lover."

The long silence made the surrounding air stagnate.

Then, Chen Zhu heard the man's low and indifferent tone, "Chen Zhu, didn't you know these truths from the beginning?"

That's right... Chen Zhu thought, he knew it, it was just that he was a bitch and wanted Xu Lanting to spoil him.

Their relationship was unequal from the very beginning, Xu Lanting was definitely not a wholehearted person in the relationship, and Chen Zhu couldn't pretend to play emotional games with him.

So all of this was wrong from the beginning...

Chen Zhu closed his eyes, "Xu Lanting, have you played enough now?"

"Azhu, you are my boyfriend now." Xu Lanting said in a seductive manner, "We are not playing, we... are trying to date."

Try to… socialize.Xu Lanting will always be like this. What he does and what he says will always leave three points for himself.

It's not a formal relationship, it's not a relationship, and it's not a public relationship...but a ridiculous "try".

Chen Zhu was sullen for no reason, how could Xu Lanting be able to advance and retreat like this, but he was so stupid that he was caught without a fight for the sake of a ridiculous "boyfriend" status, willing to be Xu Lanting's defeated opponent.

Chen Zhu thought it would last forever, but it was Xu Lanting's whim.

He finally came to his senses and stopped going around with Xu Lanting, "Xu Lanting, don't bother to arrange for me to go abroad, I won't go."

"Azhu, don't be arrogant. Do you know what these things mean to you after being exposed?" Xu Lanting sighed, "You are still young and don't understand the dangers of society."

sinister?Chen Zhu sneered, isn't he just not appreciating the sinister heart at the moment?

"Mr. Xu," Chen Zhu interrupted the man, "I'm just a poor boy with nothing, and my reputation means nothing to me."

Xu Lanting: "Chen Zhu, why are you so stubborn?" He sighed, "Chen Zhu, don't be childish, I will accompany you when you go abroad, everything has been arranged, you can still come back to build after you study abroad motherland."

The man arranged everything in an orderly manner, and everything seemed to be in order.

However, he was the only one who didn't take Chen Zhu's wishes into consideration.The so-called "for your own good" is just an excuse for Xu Lanting to act arbitrarily.

Xu Lanting patiently explained: "In the past few years, the Xu family has been somewhat disturbed. We can't let anyone catch it, you know?"

So that's the case... After Xu Lanting released the news that he was going to marry Shen, how could Chen Zhu's identity as a "genuine boyfriend" be exposed.

Chen Zhu is destined to only hide in a corner, as a small spare tire.

"Indeed, it's quite troublesome." Chen Zhu said, "Mr. Xu, I have a way to get you out of this predicament."

Before Xu Lanting opened his mouth, Chen Zhu said slowly and firmly: "If you let me go, I will let you go too. In this way, you don't have to worry about the loss of your company caused by my identity being exposed, and I don't have to worry about gains and losses because of you. All perfect."

He said slowly and word by word: "We break up, each is fine."

After finishing speaking, Chen Zhu cut off the phone.The man's sullen ending disappeared into the busy tone of the phone.

It's like waking up from a nightmare, and it's like stepping into another nightmare.Chen Zhu sat quietly for a long time looking at the phone screen that was gradually going out.

It wasn't until the midnight bell was about to ring, and this ordinary and special day was coming to an end, that Chen Zhu woke up like a dream.

He washed his face, dug out the birthday candles he had just bought downstairs, took out the small cakes kept in the water basin, and placed them on the table.

The lighter fumbled to light the candle, and Chen Zhu turned off the light. In the darkness, the frail candle flickered.

On the mottled wall, the boy's shadow swayed, melting alone into the night.

Chen Zhu sat like that, watching the candle burn out little by little, watching the last light faltering.

Then, leaning over, he blew out the candle.

In the dark night, the boy's voice was cold and sad.

"Brother, I don't want to love you anymore."

He said, "Asshole, I won't wait for you to come home again."

That night, 20-year-old Chen Zhu packed his few bags, took a little money from Chen Wenguo, and left the dilapidated hut.

He left the nest waiting for Xu Lanting to inhabit, and walked towards his own future.

Chen Zhu didn't want the unfinished cake on the table, just like the missed basketball in the window.

He doesn't want the cake anymore, he doesn't want the basketball anymore.

Xu Lanting, he doesn't want it anymore.

The author has something to say: he has come, he has come, and he has brought the crematorium with him!
