time for sysyphus

In the following period of time, Lin Si was "forcibly detained" by Ji Zhongnian in Ji's mansion, and became a veritable "prison escaper".

His face sank, and he walked over, "What are you doing?"

Lin Si's forehead was covered with sweat, soaking a few strands of hair on the sideburns.Hearing Ji Zhongnian's words, he didn't raise his head, he continued to push the mop in his hand, and said coldly: "Clean up."

During this period of time, Lins has been silently doing various tasks in this house: cleaning, working in the kitchen, lifting heavy objects, and trimming grass and trees in the garden...

He didn't regard himself as a guest of this family, but as a servant hired by Ji Zhongnian, doing some work as much as he could, in order to tell Ji Zhongnian that he was using his own labor to repay Ji Zhongnian's kindness to him.

But this is not what Ji Zhongnian wants.He grabbed Lin Si's mop pole with one hand and stopped Lin Si's movement: "I brought you back, not for you to be a servant."

"I'm paying you back."

"You're trying to settle accounts with me!"

The two of them didn't say a word, they looked at each other with deep black eyes, their hands were tightly grasping the mop, secretly competing with each other, neither of them would let go first.

Suppressing the anger in his throat, Ji Zhongnian turned to Uncle Dong and said, "I said before, Mr. Lin is my guest, why do you let the guest mop the floor with a mop?"

"Uncle Dong persuaded me." Seeing that he was about to blame Uncle Dong, Lin Si hurriedly spoke for Uncle Dong, "I want to do these things myself. I don't want to owe you, otherwise I will eat and drink for nothing here, just like It's like being raised by you."

The last sentence made Ji Zhongnian's eyes flood with darkness. He squeezed the wooden pole of the mop even tighter, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged.

"You want to figure it out so clearly with me, right?" Ji Zhongnian sneered, "Don't think I don't know what you mean."

Lin Si said nothing.

He lowered his head and wiped the sweat from his forehead. On the top of his wet head, Ji Zhongnian was looking at him silently with downcast eyes, and the powerful aura he exuded almost made Lin Si unable to look up.

The two stalemate for a long time, and in the end Ji Zhongnian won. His strength was stronger than Lin Si's. He grabbed the mop and threw it aside. With a "bang", everyone present was too scared to breathe.

"Lance, you just insist on fighting against me."

Ji Zhongnian let out a heavy snort, walked around Lin Si and left, his shoulder hit Lin Si staggering half a step.

Many days passed in the lukewarm, the relationship between Ji Zhongnian and Lin Si was neither salty nor cold, and they seldom talked. Even though the family is so big, Lin Si can always find a place to hide from Ji Zhongnian.

So much so that Ji Zhongnian often felt that Lin Si was like a puppy he picked up, he didn't like to talk, he didn't like to be in contact with him, he only drooped his ears and tail, always looked anxious, and didn't know that he was worried something.

Sometimes, he would find Lin Si sitting alone in a daze somewhere in the garden, like now.

From a distance, Lin Si's figure is thin, hazy by the hazy light and shadow of the setting sun, and the white sunlight seems to grow behind him, making him look clear and transparent, surrounded by a small circle of faint light, Delicate as the fluff of a chick.

Unconsciously attracted by Ji Zhongnian, he walked towards him and sat beside him.

"Why are you in a daze? Sitting here alone."

Lin Si was stunned for a while, then sighed helplessly: "Why on earth do you like me...I have already..."

——I obviously tried my best to avoid you.

Ji Zhongnian asked this question, and he couldn't give a definite answer himself.Probably, something similar to a sense of fate was inspiring him, hidden in his heart since some time, constantly driving him to take the initiative to approach Lin Si.

The closer he gets to Lins, the more he is attracted to this person. Obviously, the same-sex magnets should repel each other, but he can't wait to tie himself with him.

Even if one party deliberately avoids it, some heartbeats can be traced from the very beginning, maybe it is the gaze that stayed for a second longer, or the heartbeat that missed a beat in vain.

Perhaps, from the first meeting, they were destined to be palpitated by each other until they fell.

"I don't need a reason for doing things. Similarly, I don't need any established reason to like you." Ji Zhongnian said in a slightly frivolous but serious tone: "Just because you are the person I want, from you I can see Feeling your own heat, and desire, it's as simple as that."

Lin Si's hand was grabbed by him and held in the warm palm, there was a bit of tender affection, but also a straightforward possessive desire.

For a moment, Lin Si almost blurted out his confession to him: Ji Zhongnian, I like you too.

But in the end, he still forced himself not to speak.The greatest degree of grace is just letting your hand be held by the other party for a while, and feeling the feeling of being loved at this moment.

"No matter how bad it is, you can treat me as a pervert who just wants to pester and tie you up." Ji Zhongnian said these unreasonable words confidently.

In the past, Lin Si would have been delighted by the other party's words, but now he only feels pain.The painful thing is that every time he notices a little liking from the other party, he has to panic.

Because he is a person who keeps running in the time dimension, forced to move forward along the track of fate, leaving only Ji Zhongnian one after another staying in place, tortured and suffocated by countless lovers' deaths.

"Ji Zhongnian, if you are with me, maybe one day in the future, you will have to endure a lot of pain and become very sad... It is very likely that we will separate, so it doesn't matter?"

"What do you mean?"

Ji Zhongnian frowned, and held Lin Si's hand even tighter. He didn't quite understand his question: "Are you just looking for a reason to reject me? If so, it would be perfunctory."

He couldn't accept that Lance's random nonsense in order to reject him was only based on an unwarranted guess.

But Lin Si still told him very firmly, "We have no good results together. This result is not even acceptable to ordinary people, including you, including me...you just treat me as someone with a prophecy card in my hand." People, I know, so I don't want us to end up in a painful end, and I don't want you to suffer that."

After being stunned for a while, Lin Si didn't give Ji Zhongnian the reaction he wanted, but withdrew his slightly surprised gaze, turned around and said to Uncle Dong: "Since the second young master returns, I'll go upstairs first. Uncle Dong, It's getting late, you should go to bed earlier."

Ji Zhongnian and the two young ladies were regarded as air.
