distorted impression

"Did something happen?" Jiang Chengyue stood still, the firefly light created by the lighting effect of the catwalk followed Lu Xu's footsteps, floated up into the air, and disappeared in the air just a little away from his fingertips. Location.

"It's nothing." Lu Xu's mood swings seemed to be only at that moment just now, and he quickly returned to normal, and he let go of the hands around his waist, "Eat regularly, and it won't be easy to hug if you are thin."

The pity Jiang Chengyue had just bubbled up disappeared, and she shook off Lu Xu's hand.

He is not very thin, because many netizens who have watched the show praised him for his good figure, but Lu Xu always likes to pick and choose.

He tried to walk a few steps on the runway, trying to imitate the steps of those male models, but felt that he was not tall enough.

"Do you think there is anything lacking?" The hall with the runway was very empty, and when Lu Xu spoke, there was still some echo.

"Ask me?" Jiang Chengyue pointed at herself.

He doesn't think his aesthetic level is qualified to comment on this.

"It's my idea. I hired the lighting designer to do it. When it is presented on the big show, it will not be as quiet as it is now. There will be fashion workers from all over the world and invited customers under the runway." Lu Xu pointed down the stage, and a place was dimly lit, "I leave it to you, remember to come and see it in December."

"The spring and summer show you keep talking about is in December?" Jiang Chengyue thought he had made a mistake.

"Yes, it's late this year. Usually, it's a season in advance, so that customers can order new clothes for the next season after watching the show." Lu Xu explained.

"I won't forget." Jiang Chengyue accepted the invitation, which was more than a month in advance, "I won't run around, Brother Lu, I will go wherever you want me to go."

Since the afternoon, Lu Xu's heart, which had been a little drifting, finally settled down.

Lu Xu's palms were a little itchy, Jiang Chengyue's fingertips scratched from his palm, and took away the small light controller in his hand.

Jiang Chengyue held up the controller and pointed in another direction, and the other chair also lit up, breaking through Lu Xu's carefulness: "This algorithm is quite simple."

Lu Xu was not angry either, and let him play.

"Dating, dear moon?" Lu Xu asked.

"Huh?" Jiang Chengyue, who was stepping on a firefly lamp, opened his eyes wide.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that he and Lu Xu haven't had a date yet, but they have done a lot of other things.

Obviously it was Lu Xu who said it in the first place, there is no such worldly desire.

"The world and you are two different things." Lu Xu said so.

Jiang Chengyue still felt that he had been cheated, if Lu Xu hadn't said that he wanted to make up, he would have forgotten that lovers can still have dates.

"Where should we go for an appointment?" Jiang Chengyue asked.

This statement seems to be a bit ambiguous. After asking Jiang Chengyue, he found out, but Lu Xu's Chinese level should not be able to get it, so Jiang Chengyue was very relieved to ask.

"You decide." Lu Xu said, "Go to the place you like, anywhere, and this time I won't leave you."

Jiang Chengyue knew that he was probably referring to the incident when Lu Xu temporarily had a job and threw him by the side of the road when they first met. He had long since ignored it, but Lu Xu still remembered it.

Throughout the night, Jiang Chengyue was researching where he could go on a date with Lu Xu.

Lu Xu let him make a decision this time because he gave him a chance to pull himself into his world.

But around Jiang Chengyue, the only person with experience in love is the cool brother Sun Muyang——

[Bamboo shoots]: When you and your ex-boyfriend are dating, what do you do?

[Bamboo shoots]: Don't make a sound.

After more than ten minutes, Sun Muyang replied the message.

[Sun Muyang]: Reconciled, now we are boyfriend.

[Sun Muyang]: Find a boxing gym and have a fight.

Jiang Chengyue: "..."

It won't work.

Lu Xu wasn't in the room, he didn't really want to sleep, it happened that Sun Muyang sent him a sheet music, and he wanted to find a harmonica to try for a while, and then he remembered that he put the piano on the island.

The light in the living room was still on, and Aunt Lu Nian was still awake. Seeing him coming, she motioned for him to sit there: "Aren't you sleeping? No class tomorrow?"

Jiang Chengyue hid the harmonica behind her back.

"It's okay." When Lu Nian spoke, he didn't have the aggressiveness of Lu Xu, "I know you play in a band, I won't tell your mother."

Jiang Chengyue breathed a sigh of relief.

"I want a son as obedient as you..." Lu Nian said halfway, but he didn't know what he remembered, so he didn't say any more.

Jiang Chengyue noticed that her suitcase was at her feet.

"Are you leaving again?" he asked.

"I haven't returned to China for many years, and I've made an appointment with a few old friends. I want to go around and see what has changed." Lu Nian said, "Leave tomorrow morning."

"Still sleeping, you're not going out tomorrow?" Lu Xu appeared at the door of the living room, clasped his knuckles against the wall, and raised his chin in the direction of the room, "Go to sleep."

Jiang Chengyue said "Oh", and walked back obediently. When passing by Lu Xu, the harmonica was confiscated.

In the living room, the smile on Lu Nian's face gradually faded, and there was some seriousness in the eyes looking at Lu Xu.

"Kyle." She said, "Jiang Chengyue is a guest, you can't treat him that way."

"What did I do to him?" Lu Xu smiled, "Did I hit him, or what did I do to him? What did Enrich tell you?"

Seeing his appearance, Lu Nian was furious: "You know it in your heart."

She originally thought it was his ex-husband's exasperated nonsense, but she didn't expect that Lu Xu really had thoughts that he shouldn't have about the kid who was staying at home.

"Jiang Chengyue is only 18 years old." She said.

"19, thank you." Lu Xu corrected.

"You are 27 years old." Lu Nian said again.

"26, thank you." Lu Xu corrected.

There was an eerie silence in the living room——

After a long while, Lu Nian laughed angrily, and called him by name: "Lu Xu, I don't care if your Chinese is good enough to distinguish the concept of virtual age from full age, it's not good who you like, you have to like Jiang Chengyue, you have to I like the children I let you take care of."

"It's not good to like anyone, but I can only like Jiang Chengyue." Lu Xu said, "Mom, you know your son's personality, and you can't talk me out of it."

Lu Nian: "Jiang Chengyue, I have liked this child since I was a child..."

"I like it too." Lu Xu said.

"Listen to me! As you said, you are 7 years older than him. He has just entered college, and he hasn't even figured out what kind of person he will be in the future." Lu Nian said, "And You, out of my selfishness, I once thought..."

"It's only 7 years old, and I'm not old enough to be his father." Lu Xu said, "When I was his age, I knew everything."

Lu Nian didn't want to argue with him, so he waved his hand, signaling Lu Xu to leave quickly.

The harmonica was confiscated, so Jiang Chengyue had to concentrate on thinking about where he would date Lu Xu the next day.

But human fireworks and road designers really don't match. He thought for a long time, but he couldn't think of a suitable place. Because he thought too late, he still couldn't get up the next morning.

When he woke up to take a shower, Aunt Lu Nian had already left, leaving several kinds of chocolates and candies on the table, which were specially bought gifts for him by Aunt Lu.

"Lu Xu..." he asked, "What kind of person is Aunt Lu to you?"

Lu Xu thought for a while and said, "Did you see the scar on her left forehead?"

Jiang Chengyue nodded, he could probably guess the source.

"I hated her for being weak, but the time Enrich hit me, she pushed him down the stairs." When Lu Xu said these past events, there was never much expression on his face.

It is said to be a date, but the two of them have done one or two more intimate things, and when they go out together, they are less formal than the first date.

Lu Xu promised Jiang Chengyue to make arrangements yesterday, and he never broke his promise. He was dragged all the way to the subway station by the excited Jiang Chengyue without even shouting to the driver.

The road designer stood in front of the ticket vending machine at the entrance of the subway, with a straight face, studying how to buy subway tickets.

The route is very complicated, and the names of the subway stations are getting more and more strange.

"Hurry up, do you still want to buy it?" The people in the queue at the back were anxious, and when they saw Lu Xu's face and height, they were immediately scared, "Hey, foreign friends."

"I'll come, I'll come." Jiang Chengyue really couldn't stand the long process of modern designers taming the subway ticket machines, pushed Lu Xu away, put coins into the ticket gate, and held the round subway coins spit out by the machine.

He originally wanted to pass it directly to Lu Xu, but suddenly remembered the cleanliness that Lu Xu sometimes didn't have at that time, he withdrew his hand and slapped his subway card in Lu Xu's palm.

Lu Xu, who was a little bored by the ticket machine, gradually calmed down, clutching Jiang Chengyue's small card, and followed his little boyfriend through the subway gates.

Lu Xu stared at the crowd and frowned.

"How about... Let's take a taxi?" Jiang Chengyue felt a little regretful, there were always people staring at Lu Xu, and some people wanted to take pictures with their mobile phones.

"No." Lu Xu spit out a word, put his hand on the back of Jiang Chengyue's neck, and stroked it twice comfortingly.

Jiang Chengyue almost led Lu Xu through a subway line to the other end of the city.

This is a lake that few people come to. The lake is clean, and there are many white pigeons parked on the shore. According to the people who run the place, this lakeshore was more popular more than ten years ago.

Three months ago, Lu Xu would never have imagined that one day he would bargain with Jiang Chengyue at a roadside stall in the scenic area, and lean on the rusty railing by the lake to feed pigeons.

"30 a bag of corn... How old is your brother?" asked the sister who sold the corn kernels.

The question of how old is suddenly hit a point of Lu Xu's anger.

"20." Lu Xu said.

Jiang Chengyue, who was drinking water with her head up, choked on a sip, covered her mouth and coughed, and the water that she didn't swallow in time soaked a small piece of her collar. Lu Xu naturally reached out and wiped Jiang Chengyue's face with the back of his hand. mouth.

The sister who sold corn kernels was stunned.

"It's not like it?" Lu Xu asked.

"No, no." The other party quickly waved his hand.

It's not like, it's just that the two people who came to ask her to buy things are too good-looking.

Lu Xu lowered his head and glanced at Jiang Chengyue. Seeing that he no longer coughed, he said, "Do you think I look like a foreign friend? It's not easy to bring my little boyfriend here. How about 30 taels?"

The elder sister who sold the corn kernels was blushing, and when she regained her senses, she had already given out three packets of corn kernels.

Sitting on the steps of the square by the lake, Jiang Chengyue wanted to laugh and was angry at the same time: "You sell your appearance to bargain."

The pigeon flew over and gently pecked away the corn kernels in his hand.

"I'm selling my hue? It's only for you, do you want it?" Lu Xu waved away a pigeon that came past him, "Didn't you see that so many people are looking at you along the way?"

"Then why are you pretending to be 20 years old?" Jiang Chengyue whispered.

The pigeons seemed to be afraid of Lu Xu, and they all surrounded Jiang Chengyue, and one of them landed on top of Jiang Chengyue's head.

Lu Xu didn't like the pigeons again, but the picture of Jiang Chengyue feeding the pigeons was too quiet, so he didn't wave his hand to drive them away.

"How about here?" Jiang Chengyue sat up a little, and Lu Xu grabbed his left hand and played with it in the palm of his hand.

"It's okay." Lu Xu said objectively, "Why do you think of coming here?"

The lake was probably beautiful 20 years ago, but now, many modern buildings have been sporadically built around it, destroying the original beauty.

"It's a place my parents know." A pigeon landed on Jiang Chengyue's left toe, "I'm not as good as you think. Before, I didn't understand my parents very well for a long time."

He didn't understand why they fell in love with each other, nor why they both went to work in such a dangerous place, nor did he understand that after his father's accident, Qu Jing had been guarding the land he sacrificed for more than ten years.

For a time he felt that he was a victim of his parents' love, and he never told anyone about it.

He is the well-behaved and sensible Jiang Chengyue in everyone's eyes.

"Now?" Lu Xu grabbed his hand tightly.

"I can understand now." Jiang Chengyue said.

Whether it's his parents, an old band like Wujiang, or his familiar friends from Mengbai, in everyone's life, they can probably find the meaning they try to interpret.

"Am I...more sensible." Jiang Chengyue said.

Lu Xu mocked him contemptuously and helplessly, then raised his hand and slapped Jiang Chengyue's ass: "I didn't make you sensible, you don't have to be sensible."

A pigeon flapped its wings in shock.

On Lu Xu's mobile phone, there is still a message sent by Lu Nian just now——

"Kyle, I respect your choice. I'm just giving you advice. I promise Jiang Chengyue's mother will take good care of him during this time. I can't be ashamed of her. Don't hurt him while you haven't done anything. It’s better to stop sooner.”
