superficial dialogue

Ke Jiang's throat was dry, his tongue pressed against the most sore part of his mouth, and his hand was holding the phone stiffly.He remained silent the entire time, listening to the flustered explanation of the person on the other end of the phone, his heart slowly fell back to the original place.

"Talk to me," Xie Baijing said palely, "Say something, Ke Jiang."

Ke Jiang suddenly said: "What happened to your grandma?"

Xie Baijing: "I don't know yet..." He paused, regained consciousness a little, and organized his sentences, "I didn't mean to lie to you, Ke Jiang, I heard the news the day before yesterday that my grandma had fallen. Today I'm filming At five o'clock, I will go home after packing my luggage. We are so far away, I don't want you to think about it, so I didn't tell you. I didn't mean it, understand, I want you to be well over there, I originally wanted to Leave this vacation to you, and I will show you the ticket information."

Xie Baijing: "Don't be angry, I'm sorry."

Ke Jiang said softly, "Then I will come to your house to look for you tomorrow."

Xie Baijing was stunned.

Ke Jiang held back for a long time, and before hanging up the phone, he said, "If you told me earlier, it would be over."

In the evening, he asked someone to book the earliest car to find Xie Baijing, and made an appointment for a special car to come downstairs to pick him up from the hotel on time tomorrow morning, and then set an alarm clock for himself.After the call, his already drowsy mind became more energetic. Sitting by the bed, he carefully took out the ring box, opened it, and was relieved to confirm that the pair of rings inside were intact.All doubts and dark negative emotions dissipated one by one when Xie Baijing explained on the phone like a bewildered child, but he still had some vague irritability and dissatisfaction in his heart.

Something happened to grandma, what's there to hide from him?Ke Jiang is really baffled, it's not that he hasn't been to Xie Baijing's house, he was the one who sent his grandma to the private hospital in the first place!Does he seem to be the one who would get angry if the old man didn't look at him because of Xie Baijing?Is Ke Jiang so heartless?He himself has had a close relationship with his elders, so he naturally knows how concerned and worried he will feel when his dearest relative is sick or has an accident.His grandfather has been gone for nearly a year, and he still feels sad when he thinks about it.

Moreover, it's not that he doesn't know what Xie Baijing's family is like.With a person like Xie's mother here, I don't know how that person is doing at home. From the voice of the phone just now, he is not very energetic, and he must not be living comfortably.Since it's uncomfortable, why don't you tell him?Carefully, patiently and meticulously comfort him and greet him on the phone, don't let him hear the slightest news, is this comfortable?

Ke Jiang was full of anger, distressed and angry, if Xie Baijing was in front of him, maybe he would really beat him up.

When the alarm rang the next day, Ke Jiang got up numbly, washed and dressed.He lost his appetite after getting up too early, so he didn't eat anything at all, and got into the car in a daze.When winter came, the dawn was very late, and the dark night always shrouded Ke Jiang.The journey was bumpy all the way, and the young master who grew up in rich clothes and fine food rarely experienced such hardships, and he almost lost his temper after being tortured.If it weren't for Xie Baijing's aggressiveness, he really wanted to go back and find a hotel that met his requirements, and sleep for a day.

At the exit of the station, Xie Baijing's little assistant stared nervously at him, carefully identifying the crowds pouring out, and when he saw Ke Jiang coming out, he immediately went up to meet him, his diligent hands were up and down in the air for a long time, but he couldn't find any luggage that could be picked up, so he had to do it. Greeted eagerly: "Hi, Young Master Ke."

Ke Jiang raised his eyelids to look at him, vaguely remembering that he followed Xie Baijing before, and asked indifferently, "Where are the others?"

"Bai Jing is still in the car," the little assistant led the way, making a gesture of protection with one hand, which caught the eyes of several people, and had to lower his voice, "He insisted on coming down to pick you up, because we were afraid that someone would take pictures of him and cause trouble." He was in trouble, so I advised him not to come down."

Ke Jiang: "Oh. How is his grandmother?"

The little assistant enthusiastically said, "I haven't gone to see it yet. Bai Jing said that he would pick you up first. We all think that's the way to go. We can visit the old man together later. What do you think?"

Ke Jiang suddenly smiled, with a shallow dimple on his cheek.When he smiled, his eyebrows and eyes were curved, his teeth were straight, he looked very friendly and sincere, and the little assistant was stunned: "You are quite good at things."

The assistant opened the back seat door for him, and he sat in, looking at Xie Baijing at a glance.

It was already such a cold weather, Xie Baijing was still only wearing a thin sweater, not even a jacket.From the moment he opened the door, Ke Jiang could feel his scorching eyes burning on him.Xie Baijing's eyes were bloodshot red, and he didn't look much more energetic than Ke Jiang. It was obvious that the two of them didn't have a good rest last night.Until the car started, the car was still silent, and the air was filled with suffocating tension.The assistant sat in the front row anxiously, thinking that Xie Baijing usually talks tenderly on the phone, and has such a hot fight with this young master Ke, why is it so embarrassing now?Is it because he and the driver are there?Is it too late for him to jump off the car now?

Xie Baijing finally spoke: "Why did you come here—"

He paused, and realized that Ke Jiang's hand had fallen on the back of his hand.Ke Jiang lightly stroked the back of Xie Baijing's right hand. The young man was in good health, so he was warmer than Ke Jiang with cold hands and feet.Now the two of them seem to be in reverse, Xie Baijing's hand seems to have just been dipped in ice water, Ke Jiang frowned, and touched the slender fingers from the back of the hand, his hand slowly tightened, wrapping Xie Baijing's hand, A little temperature passed through.

Xie Baijing suddenly stopped talking, his heart was beating wildly, eyes half closed, watching Ke Jiang stiff and motionless.

"I'll scold you when I get back, there are others now." Ke Jiang turned his head sideways, pressed close to Xie Baijing's neck, and softly breathed on the man's earlobe, grinding his teeth and said, "You bastard, don't save others." Heart."

He noticed carefully that Xie Baijing's hands began to tremble slightly.Just when he raised his head because he thought it was funny, Xie Baijing seemed to finally be unable to bear it, pressed down and silently gave an extremely ferocious kiss.Ke Jiang was shocked, caring about the assistants and drivers in the front row, frowning and trying to push back, but finally gave up, letting Xie Baijing sweep his mouth resentfully, enveloping all the aura that belonged to that person, like It's re-marked in general.But apart from being ferocious, it also lacks the aggression that was fearless before.Ke Jiang stroked the man's hair, and found that even the root of the thinning young man seemed to be trembling slightly, but the cold hands hugging his waist were extremely tight, as if he was afraid that he would leave .Although Xie Baijing sprayed some perfume to try to cover it up, Ke Jiang still keenly captured the hidden tobacco smell.

Anyway, it's not that he gets along with these people day and night, Xie Baijing can lose face if he wants to.Ke Jiang slowly relaxed, thinking so.

When lips and tongue were separated, Xie Baijing seemed to be hugging some lost and recovered treasure, and still hugged him tightly, unwilling to let go.Ke Jiang felt a little uncomfortable being shackled by him, frowning and wanted to push away, but he heard Xie Baijing whisper in his ear: "I thought you would go straight away."

Ke Jiang's restlessness was strangely calmed down again, and he said angrily, "I'm going to scold you again, what are you going to do?" He paused, and said, "Is grandma okay?"

"I don't know yet." Xie Baijing sat up straight now, with a flat tone, "Maybe it's mainly related to my mother. Let's go to the hotel first, haven't you eaten yet?" He still didn't want to let Ke Jiang know what he meant. Worry too much.In the past, Ke Jiang might have praised him from the bottom of his heart as a smart and independent lover, but now, his eyes flickered a little, and he tried his best to suppress the unexpected.

The two first arrived at the hotel where Ke Jiang stayed before, and Xie Baijing opened the suite in advance.Ke Jiang knew that Xie Baijing didn't want his biological mother to come out to meet him more, so he didn't care too much.To his surprise, this room seemed to be the same as the room they stayed in last time, and a rich lunch was prepared in the room, most of which were his favorite dishes.The assistant and others left early, Ke Jiang did not refuse, and ate immediately after sitting down, but Xie Baijing had no appetite, so he just sat opposite him and looked at him quietly.

After eating almost, Ke Jiang put down the tableware, wiped his lower lip gracefully, and looked at Xie Baijing.

"The last time I came here, it seems to be because of my aunt." Ke Jiang said casually.It was also at that time that the relationship between them completely began to ease. Xie Baijing vaguely promised him to "give it a try", and he has been trying until now.

Xie Baijing pursed his lips: "I'm sorry."

Ke Jiang: "That idiot Ke Cheng told me last time that you used the excuse of your aunt to be on the news to get me to take the initiative to come over, so we were able to be together, is that so?"

"No!" Xie Baijing frowned immediately. He seemed to have never thought that Ke Jiang would say such a thing, so that his complexion was a little paler than before, and his thin lips were getting tighter and tighter. "How could I do such a thing?" What?! He threatened me first, and his assistant told me that he would give me some 'small punishment', and then my mother's matter was hit the headlines."

"This is also your one-sided statement." Ke Jiang smiled, and the dimples on his cheeks disappeared in a flash. He could almost be called merciless and asked, "Do you know how many times I have seen at Ke Cheng's place?" Are there any photos of you meeting him? The time, place, and person are all missing. Why have you met so many times?"

Ke Jiang's tone was very calm, as if he was asking some irrelevant question: "Do you really want me to come out to the family? Why do you never let me intervene in your work?"

Since Ke Jiang went abroad, the two seem to have tacitly never mentioned the past, and even if they mentioned it, they just vaguely covered it up.They can joke and play like before, and they can be as caring as lovers. There are small conflicts, and they are all about them now, trying to let time smooth out the ups and downs of the past.Xie Baijing never thought that one day Ke Jiang would take the initiative to directly uncover the scars of their relationship, and spread all the words Ke Cheng used on the table one by one.On this point, Ke Chengcheng may not have thought that his younger brother, who has always been a "benevolent woman", would be willing to face those bloody memories, break them up sentence by sentence, and speak them out calmly.

Ke Jiang looked at Xie Baijing fixedly, and silence flowed between the two of them.

"I'll never forgive you for this matter," Xie Baijing said awkwardly after a long while, trying his best to tell the truth of what he had experienced, "He found me very early, hoping that I could obey you and develop a relationship with you. He once Encourage me, let me persuade you to make it public, or other things, these are all true. He used resources as bait, and I thought I was smart and could get benefits without trace, so it was true to obey him on the surface. My There are many traces of him in the work, which is not convenient for you to see, and I don't want you to go around for me, so I don't want you to intervene in the work, it's true."

"But I have never," Xie Baijing said, "I have never decided our relationship because of him. I am with you because I found that I fell in love with you slowly. I love you, Ke Jiang. If I went to your birthday party last year and it was the reason you came out, then I'd rather I never went. You don't know..."

"Then did you find out, Bai Jing," Ke Jiang interrupted him, his tone was even gentle, as if he was really looking at a child who was not sensible as an elder brother, "You never tell these Me. Whether it was before or now. You are the boy I love, you can tell me all your difficulties, and you can rely on me. Ke Cheng is threatening you, your mother is on the news, your grandma has an accident, what do you want You want resources, you want to make money, if you can tell me, we can save a lot of detours—" He also stopped suddenly, and even panicked, because he noticed that the eye circles of the young man in front of him were slowly turning red.

If anyone can see Xie Baijing's tenderness, it is already rare in the world.Ke Jiang thought, is he the only one who can see Xie Baijing's tears?

Just like the little beast in the world who doesn't know how to love learns to say love, Xie Baijing's tears hang in the originally indifferent and dark eyes, and finally fall out and slide down his cheeks.The corners of the young man's eyes and the tip of his nose were red and trembling, his bloodless lips were slightly opened, and that extremely precious tear seemed to turn into a pearl, falling all the way down.

Ke Jiang stood up abruptly. He was so flustered that he didn't know what expression to put on. He subconsciously reached out, held Xie Baijing's cheek sideways, and pressed a wet mark with his thumb.He couldn't help stroking the top of Xie Baijing's head with his other hand, as before, gently touching the hair of a person, as a wordless comfort.

"You don't know," Xie Baijing finished what he had just been interrupted. His voice was hoarse and embarrassed, and he spoke in a hurry, even ignoring the wetness of his face, as if he had left his self-esteem and pride at the bottom of his feet. His handsome appearance outside is very different, "Jiang Bao, you don't know how much I like you. How afraid I am of you...leave me. Don't go, don't leave me."

Don't worry about it so much.Ke Jiang thought.

If he could face such an unhandsome and disrespectful Xie Baijing, his heart was so soft that he couldn't speak, then what else would he have to struggle with?

"Okay." Ke Jiang heard the sound of himself "plopping" and jumping into the river of love again, and the water splashed all over him, "Don't leave me either."
