superficial dialogue

Ke Jiang came out of the garden in a hurry, and when he could see outsiders, he restrained his expression, unwilling to expose his hasty and embarrassed appearance to others.The inconspicuous redness of his eyes was normal enough for the occasion, enough for him to weave through the crowd, nodding silently to everyone who said "sorry" to him.No one would blame him for his indifference and gaffe today. It is said that he is the youngest grandson in the whole Ke family who has the deepest relationship with the old man. In other words, his previous calm even made people feel disappointed, which is more reasonable.

As expected, Mother Jiang stood on his way back to his room. Although her expression was calm, Ke Jiang understood that she knew everything.

"I saw you, you guys are too careless." When Ke Jiang walked in front of her, Jiang's mother spoke softly, no one could hear except the two of them, with a hint of reproach, "You still like him, right? wrong."

Ke Jiang: "Today is Grandpa's funeral."

Mother Jiang: "I hope you can pursue whatever you want, including love. But I also hope you can think about yourself first."

"Today is grandpa's funeral," Ke Jiang repeated emphatically, and said wearily, "Mom, I don't want to talk about this."

Mother Jiang showed a sorry expression.The relationship between their mother and son is very good, but not close, with a strong sense of boundaries, more like a pair of friends who have been friends for many years.This also means that when one person shows resistance to the conversation, the other person will politely stop the topic, and it is destined to be unable to open the other person's heart by force.She took a step back and said gently, "Go back and rest, I'm outside."

Ke Jiang tried his best to squeeze out a smile, but did not refuse.He is no longer a child, but hearing that there are still people who can say "I am outside" when he is extremely tired is enough to make him feel relieved, and even the tip of his nose feels sore.

It is true that he has not rested for a long time. Many days of vigil, emotional ups and downs, severe lack of sleep, and not much food in a day, all these reasons put him on the verge of collapse.But just like Xie Baijing and many others were puzzled, he didn't cry.Even his father wanted to shed a few crocodile tears at today's funeral to show others his sadness and remembrance, but his eyes were always dry.It's not that Ke Jiang is not sad, but it seems that too many negative emotions have accumulated together. If he didn't paralyze himself, he might sit on the ground and cry like a child.It is indeed too difficult for a person who has been weak for more than [-] years to stand firm in an instant, so much so that he just wants to solve everything quickly and escape to the ends of the earth, regardless of the flood.

When Ke Jiang returned to the room, the first thing he did was to take off the black gauze on his arms, change into a formal suit, and bury himself in the bathtub.The warm water wrapped around his body, making him drowsy.

Thanks again to the white-eyed wolf, it wasn't all bad things.Ke Jiang thought.The effect of alcohol just now soothed his body very well, so that the nerves that have been tense for many days can finally relax a little.

When he was struggling to get out of the bathtub, there was a knock on the door.Since his grandfather passed away, everyone in the family knew that Ke Jiang's mood had changed, and he rarely came to ask and disturb him.Ke Jiang wore a baggy bathrobe and opened the door. Standing outside was a servant of the Ke family. Seeing him there, he was quite surprised: "Young Master Ke, so you are really in the room."

Ke Jiang was patient: "What's wrong?"

"That Mr. Xie, you must ask me to come here to ask if you need something to eat." The servant mentioned "Mr. Xie" tactfully and carefully. Obviously, it was the Mr. Xie that Ke Jiang knew.

Ke Jiang frowned immediately: "He wants you to come, so you come? Who is he?!"

The servant knew this earlier, so he bit the bullet and tried to separate himself from the relationship: "Mr. Xie also asked to borrow the kitchen, and we have already refused..."

Ke Jiang really had nothing to say, he lowered his head and rubbed his temples.Ke's family is not his own, Xie Baijing obviously doesn't understand this.If it was in his own territory, Xie Baijingmao rashly said that he would use the kitchen and ask someone to care about whether he ate or not. Although it was unreasonable, it was still within Ke Jiang's control; Especially now that there are so many people living in it, eyes are everywhere, even his elder brother has to live here in a well-behaved manner.Regardless of Ke Jiang's reputation, does Xie Baijing still want to act outside?How could someone who was so smart and cautious before be able to do anything now?

"Then do you still need to eat?" The servant carefully interrupted Ke Jiang's thoughts, "We have prepared some light meals."

Ke Jiang said lightly: "Send it to my room."

No matter what, he was immersed in his thoughts all day long, and he hadn't realized that he was indeed so hungry that his stomach was throbbing.

Mother Jiang was able to visit him in his room only late at night.Ke Jiang just woke up after catching up on sleep, and was using his computer to check the situation of his small businesses.Mother Jiang didn't take off her makeup, and although her posture was still elegant, she already showed a deep tired look.Ke Jiang hurriedly let her into the room to sit down, and poured tea for her himself.Jiang's mother asked: "Have you eaten anything? You haven't even opened your mouth at lunch. I've been busy all day, but I didn't think about it."

Ke Jiang said a little unnaturally: "I have eaten. Mom, you have worked hard all day, so go to rest early."

"I don't work hard." Jiang's mother was indeed tired, she cut down on unnecessary politeness, she didn't even plan to say a word of comfort, and cut straight to the point, "How do you say, do you still want to go home?"

Ke Jiang hummed.

Jiang's mother: "Do you have to? Jiang Jiang, I told you that it should be yours and should not be backed down. The situation is very good now. Although the will has not been announced, I guess it is beneficial to you. There is also that young man Xie Baijing , are you really willing?"

Ke Jiang said without hesitation, "I'm willing."

Mother Jiang smiled wryly and shook her head.

"I'm sorry," Ke Jiang said after a while, "Mom, I'm most sorry for you."

Jiang's mother is competitive, clever and utilitarian, always thinking about maximizing her benefits.But he gave birth to a son who is completely idealistic. He seems to be in the past when it comes to money, fame and fortune, but he is more affectionate.Ke Jiang knew that his mother still hoped that he could stay in the country after putting so much thought into it.His grandfather must have left him a lot of property, enough for him to squander, and Jiang's mother's ambition that will never age must be vigorous, hoping to promote him to make a real career-from this point of view, his mother and his grandfather Always coincide.Although it was not in line with Ke Jiang's own wishes, it was all for his own good.While insisting on his own opinion, Ke Jiang also feels guilty.

Mother Jiang sighed: "You have done a good job." She didn't even take a few sips of tea before leaving in a hurry.Knowing that Ke Jiang had made up her mind, she also gave up any further communication between mother and child.

Ke Jiang sat alone on the original small sofa, and the room suddenly returned to its original calm, which made him a little at a loss and lonely.He moved the mouse stiffly with his hand, thinking of taking a look at his domestic account on a whim.Most of the accounts are mediocre, and there is only one card, which was used to send some pocket money to Xie Baijing every month in the past, and there is not much at all.He just checked casually, but found that there was an income every month - no doubt, the other party's Xie Baijing.As much as he called, the kid would call back honestly, no matter after he had already started to make money or when he was still struggling on the line of food and clothing.Ke Jiang hadn't worried about how much money he had before, but he found out for the first time that Xie Baijing didn't even take this small amount of money.

That's fine too.Ke Jiang thought, to prove that Xie Baijing really didn't owe him much.

From today onwards, we should never see each other again.

Mr. Ke's will was not unexpected.Although the old man loved Ke Jiang like a small apple in his eyes, he still didn't dare to entrust his life and death to him, and what was left to him were good things that were sure to make money, enough for him to be ten years old again. The idiot young master of my life.But his elder brother got his wish, and his position as heir is firmly established.Strictly speaking, the two brothers received almost the same amount, not to mention that Ke's father was even more eccentric. His share of the future was properly reserved for the eldest son. Generally speaking, Ke Cheng should win.

But Ke Cheng was not satisfied.

What he wants is not "similar" or "fairness and justice", what he wants is a crushing victory.His damned half-brother, a gay who raised starlets, so ruined the family's reputation, how could he still get so much?The name of the so-called heir he got sounds nice, but it is actually very important, and all the pressure and rumors have followed; It should have belonged to his backing.What is partiality, this is partiality!

Ke Cheng was so angry that he was not even satisfied with seeing Xie Baijing.

He didn't expect that the scandal at the beginning and Ke Jiang's outrageous act of coming out of the closet could not shake the old man's mind.Looking at it this way, it was a waste of time for him to use this little star as an excuse. Now that he thinks about it, he also feels that he can't get on the stage.But after thinking about it, everyone can see how Ke Jiang lost his soul because of Xie Baijing before, and now seeing his old lover is still beautiful, he must feel hatred and sour in his heart.It's not worth it for a little star to change his brother's heartache.He dared to bet that Ke Jiang still misses Xie Baijing now—it's normal, men always think about what they can't get, even if they're gay, it's probably the same.

He hoped that Ke Jiang would be emotionally hurt and helpless since then. When he heard that Ke Jiang was going to go abroad soon, he hinted a few words in dissatisfaction, and someone immediately followed his wishes and asked Xie Baijing a few more times. I have to poke Ke Jiang's heart again.

When Xie Baijing received such a "reminder", he almost laughed out loud.

However, with a smile in his heart, his face remained unchanged, his handsome face was cold, and he said neither humble nor overbearing: "Young Master Ke has already rejected me, I'm afraid I won't be able to fulfill President Ke's request."

"Why can't it work?" Xiao Li was in a hurry, "The Chen Chen that Ke Shao took away last time was said to be your low-profile version, and he clearly still misses you."

Hearing the name "Chen Chen", Xie Baijing's eyebrows became slightly colder and colder.He hadn't mentioned it to Ke Jiang before, because he was afraid of deteriorating the relationship between the two of them, which had reached the bottom. It didn't mean he didn't care about it.That boy who is one year younger than him has always been a thorn in his heart. He has heard about it for a long time, and that person is publicizing how gentle and considerate Young Master Ke is to him. Just hearing about it can make Xie Baijing reach the end of his patience limit.Fortunately, Ke passed away from a serious illness. No matter how flirtatious Ke Jiang was, he would not touch him again during this period. Otherwise, Xie Baijing really suspected that he would go crazy because of unreasonable speculation and jealousy.

For Xie Baijing, such patience is the rarest thing.His stinky temper hidden under the perfect skin has countless shortcomings, and his possessive desire for his lover is the most violent.He dare not speak of his love, but wants people to belong to him completely and without blemish.I once heard a few women's laughter on Ke Jiang's phone, and I could pull my face down, not to mention the fact that it is almost certain now.Swallowing it and avoiding talking about it was no different to him from swallowing shards of glass alive.

Xiao Li: "Bai Jing, do your best! Don't you know how much Mr. Ke values ​​you now?"

Xie Baijing said lightly, "I'll try."

His "try" made Xiao Li nod with a smile: It seems that no matter how arrogant Xie Baijing is usually, when facing them, Mr. Ke, he can only bow his head and pretend to be his grandson.As everyone knows, Xie Baijing's "trying" does not have the slightest support from Ke Cheng, it is all for his own selfishness.Even if the whole world disagrees, he can still "try" calmly and grandly.

Xie Baijing has just finished a scene in a hurry, and the following days will be much more leisurely.Before he knew it, he already had most of the control over his work arrangements, and only arranged one or two insignificant variety show shootings for his short but precious window period.For the rest of the time, he was always looking for ways to meet Ke Jiang—however, it was too difficult.Ke Jiang is still staying in S City recently, and he is probably dealing with some remaining business matters, and it will take some effort for him, a little star with nowhere to go, to sneak into the playground of those young masters and buddies.All of a sudden, Xie Baijing didn't have a clue, and fearing that time was running out, he wandered around the gatherings of people in various circles day and night, drinking from one stall to another, trying to find a way out.

Unexpectedly, the door was really hit by him.At a party, Lin Feng was sitting beside him.Because the two had filmed the same movie, they have a relationship with the company's seniors, as well as the big star's support and support for the newcomers, so they are quite close.Lin Feng woke up casually: "He recently sold a lot of properties."

"He" is undoubtedly Ke Jiang.Xie Baijing's heart was pounding, and he quickly realized: "Is he leaving?"

"Isn't that obvious?" Lin Feng laughed, glanced carefully at Xie Baijing's expression, calmly said, "Ke Shao is also very chic, he throws away everything he says, very generous. Now he is a big hit People, everyone wants to ask him to do business."

Xie Baijing looked at him, silently raised the wine glass in his hand, as if toasting, and when he raised his hand to drink the spicy liquid, his eyes fluctuated constantly.

Lin Feng was curious.He has no hobbies in his life, but only loves gossip.But Xie Baijing is the most stuffy person he has ever seen. He is like a saw-mouthed gourd at a young age. He can only hear what he wants you to know, and he can't dig out half a sentence you want to know.Lin Feng didn't drink it himself, and watched Xie Baijing finish his drink with a half-smile, and said softly, "Tell you senior brother, what's wrong with you?"

Xie Baijing: "Business at a loss?"

Lin Feng: "Tomorrow, I can take you to see him."

"It's no different from what people say," Xie Baijing said frankly, "I did something wrong, and I deserve it."

Lin Feng was a little disappointed with these remarks, and reminded him kindly: "It doesn't seem like he can turn back."

Xie Baijing lit a cigarette for himself, eyes half down: "I know."

Ke Jiang doesn't need to look back, he can go after him.
