When Lu Jinchang came out of Haidilao after dinner, he was still wearing a golden birthday hat on his head.

He held a string of balloons in his left hand and a bunch of small gifts from the Haidilao clerk in his right hand. He seemed to be having a good time.

"Brother, are you happy today?" Lu Jinchang happily asked Lu Xun.

Lu Xun remained expressionless from beginning to end. Hearing his younger brother's question, he just gave a soft "hmm" and said, "Very happy."

The words obviously didn't match his face at all.

"By the way, Lu Lu, why did you think of going to Haidilao to celebrate my birthday for me? Did someone suggest it to you?"

Lu Xun was driving. When he said this, he raised his eyes and glanced at Yao Jing who was sitting in the back through the rear-view mirror of the car.

Yao Jing pretended to be looking at his mobile phone without expressing any opinions.

According to the confession he made with Yao Jing in advance, Lu Jinchang patted his chest and covered his upper body: "It was my own idea. I went to Haidilao with Xiaofan before, and I saw someone celebrating their birthday there, and then your birthday Isn't it coming soon? So I also want to celebrate with you."

The last sentence is indeed Lu Jinchang's original intention. A lie mixed with truth and falsehood will bear less psychological pressure than telling pure lies, and it sounds convincing enough.

Lu Xun's routine failed, so he had to give up.

However, no matter what, the younger brother is so caring, and he is still very happy as an older brother. Although the birthday celebration process is a bit embarrassing, it has passed.

Lu Xun thought for a while, and felt that it was necessary to remind his brother: "Lu Lu, next time you celebrate your brother's birthday, don't go to Haidilao again, you understand?"

Lu Jinchang: "Why? Don't you like it?"

Lu Xun: "I like it, but it's enough to experience it once, and it will be nothing new if I go next time."

Lu Jinchang felt that it made sense, and nodded in agreement: "Yes, the same method cannot be used repeatedly, otherwise it will get boring."

Yao Jing's hotel is just ahead.

When the car pulled over, before getting out of the car, Yao Jing politely said "thank you" to Lu Xun.

Yao Jing: "Please give me a ride. I will wash this clothes and return them to you as soon as possible."

Lu Xun just smiled and waved his hands: "There's no need to return it. I have too many clothes in my closet and I don't have a place to put them. You can just dispose of them yourself."

Yao Jing responded with a smile, and when he was about to close the door, he seemed to think of something, and added: "Mr. Lu, I forgot to tell you just now, happy birthday to you."

The phrase "Happy Birthday" reminded Lu Xun of his "nightmare" about celebrating his birthday in Haidilao.

For a moment, Lu Xun's expression became tense.

After Yao Jing finished his last words, he quickly closed the door and turned to leave.

After eating hot pot, the body is contaminated with a strong taste.

Immediately after returning to the hotel, Yao Jing immediately changed his clothes, went into the bathroom and took a bath for half an hour.

When he returned to the room, Yao Jing picked up the mobile phone on the table and took a look. Lu Jinchang sent him two WeChat messages about 10 minutes ago.

The first is a photo of the phone box.

[Xiao Jiangzhi]: My mobile phone was damaged by blisters. When I went back just now, my brother bought me a new one, the latest model this year, and it is also waterproof!

After nearly three months of getting along, Yao Jing seems to have developed the habit of always replying to Lu Jinchang's messages. Even if he doesn't know what to say sometimes, he will habitually type "oh".

After the message was sent, Lu Jinchang immediately sent a reply.

[Xiao Jiangzhi]: Is your mobile phone waterproof?How is it not broken?

[Yao Jing]: I took out my mobile phone before going into the water,

[Xiao Jiangzhi]: That's how it is

After showing off his new phone, Lu Jinchang asked him again: Please send me those birthday videos and photos taken in Haidilao before.

Yao Jing clicked on the photo album, found the videos and photos of Lu Xunshe's death tonight, and sent all of them to Lu Jinchang.

[Xiao Jiangzhi]: I have received them all.

[Xiao Jiangzhi]: Thank you for your good idea. Tonight's birthday was a great success!

[Yao Jing]: You're welcome, as long as your brother is happy.

[Xiao Jiangzhi]: When it was your birthday last time, I didn't know there was such a good place as Haidilao. Otherwise, I would definitely take you there to celebrate. I suddenly feel such a pity.

【Yao Jing】:......

[Xiao Jiangzhi]: How about this, when you celebrate your birthday next year, let’s go eat Haidilao together, then call all your brothers together, there are so many people, we will sing birthday to you together Song, let the diners around you envy you!

[Yao Jing]: No need...

Lu Jinchang was typing over there, and Yao Jing probably expected that he would ask him why, so he sent the answer in advance without even thinking about it.

[Yao Jing]: I have been there before, so I will go to another place next time.

[Xiao Jiangzhi]: Alright, let me think about it slowly, how should I celebrate you next time.

Yao Xin looked at the text on the screen, smiled and sent Lu Jinchang a head-touching emoji.

After talking about the birthday, Lu Jinchang immediately moved on to the next topic.

[Xiao Jiangzhi]: How did you think about the matter I asked you before?

Yao Jing was puzzled when he received his message.

[Yao Jing]: What is it?

[Xiao Jiangzhi]: I think I like you.

In a word, Yao Jing's brain suddenly boiled.

Damn, he actually completely forgot about this one.

In fact, it's no wonder that the two of them were taking a shower in the bathroom at that time, and the atmosphere was not suitable for talking about this kind of topic.

Facing Lu Jinchang's sudden words, Yao Jingdu still had time to digest, and then Lu Xun returned home from outside.

At that time, Yao Jing was all focused on avoiding Lu Xun's misunderstanding, and later, he was celebrating Lu Xun's birthday...

This happened one after another, so that Yao Jing couldn't remember the scene that happened in the bathroom before.

Lu Jin often touches his phone, tossing and turning in bed.

He turned on the screen from time to time, glanced at the WeChat chat interface, and found that Yao Jing's status was always being input, but after waiting for a long time, the other party did not reply to the message.

He was a little impatient, and finally couldn't bear it any longer, and decided to make a video call to Yao Jing.

Not long after the call invitation was dialed out, Yao Jing answered it quickly.

At this moment, he was sitting on the bed in the hotel, leaning against the bed quilt behind him, slowly taking a puff of a cigarette.

The white mist lingered around, making Yao Jing's face look a little hazy.

Lu Jinchang swallowed unconsciously, feeling a little nervous for some reason.

This kind of nervousness is different from being asked questions by the teacher in class when I was in school, or being discovered by my brother when I got into trouble.

It is really difficult for Lu Jinchang to express the specific feeling in words. He just felt that when Yao Jing's face appeared on the camera side, for a moment, his whole mood was bright.

Yao Jing, who was on the other end of the phone, was not in a calm mood at the moment.

This may be the most emotional ups and downs since the face-to-face video between him and Xiao Jiangzhi.

He pretended nothing happened, and used a cigarette to cover up some kind of turmoil in his heart.

The smoke put a layer of distortion filter in front of the camera, making him look natural and calm.

Before Xiao Jiangzhi could speak, Yao Jing suddenly realized that he had to seize the initiative first.

He asked, "Why did you say such things to me all of a sudden?"

Lu Jin often told him: "Xiaofan told me that if you like someone, you will often dream about him, and I have often dreamed about you recently.

"And if you like someone, whenever you go to a fun place, you will think of going with him; if you eat delicious food, you will also want him to taste it.

"Xiaofan told me that this is the love of falling in love."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Jin often asked him: "Yao Jing, have you ever been in love?"

This is a bit hard to say, to be honest, really not.

Logically speaking, Yao Jing's external conditions and family are both excellent, and this type of boy has never been short of suitors.

But in the past, he devoted his youth and enthusiasm to fighting.

At that time, it was not that no one chased him, but in the past, at any time, he always put brothers and loyalty first, and his brain circuit was different from ordinary people. He always felt that those who chased him surrounded him every day. Turning around, it didn't look cool at all, and in a rage, he simply chased all those annoying guys away.

Later, he left school and entered social work. He began to want to prove to everyone that he was not a second-generation ancestor who relied on his father to get ahead. For a long time, he put all his thoughts on his career and had no time for love.

It is only in the past two years that his company has slowly started to get on the right track and gradually stabilized.

Lu Jinchang should be the person Yao Jing has spent the longest time with besides his brothers and family all these years.

At the beginning, he only took Lu Jinchang into his home out of a sense of responsibility.

As the time spent together increases, the relationship between the two has unknowingly undergone subtle changes.

Until recently, after Lu Jinchang returned to Shanghai, Yao Jing always felt empty in his heart.

This person has never been within the scope of his brothers and family members, so what kind of existence is this little Jiangzhi to him?

Now after Lu Jinchang said such words to himself, Yao Jing had to seriously think about this issue.

After a few seconds, Yao Jing replied, "No."

"I do not have either."

"and then?"

Lu Jin often imitated the tone of the hero in the TV series, and said to Yao Jing: "I'll chase you, okay?"

Chapter 50 50 Don't Ask Him Again The author has something to say: Let me explain to some readers, the meaning of the words in Chapter 47 is just to say that the task list of the previous issue will be finished before the deadline on Wednesday, not that the main text will be finished!In addition, I did not apply for the list of 9.30-10.6 in this issue, because this...

"I'll chase you, okay?"

Lu Jinchang's confession came frankly, sincerely, with a firm tone, without any ambiguity.

Looking at the little Jiangzhi who was asking him seriously on the screen of the mobile phone, Yao Jing didn't react to his words for a while.

He held up his mobile phone and was in a daze for a while.

The cigarette pinched by his fingertips had already burned more than half of it before he knew it, and the ash fell on his thigh with a clatter.

Yao Jing immediately lowered his head, and hastily stretched out his hand to pat off the soot on his trousers, using a series of body movements to cover up the trace of embarrassment that appeared on his face.

After wandering around for a long time, facing the sudden confession of innocence, I feel a bit at a loss what to do.

The so-called love is something that has to be treated with caution.

After all, it is fundamentally different from 419 after all.

Once the former establishes a relationship, it means loyalty and responsibility, and even more.

In contrast, the latter is much simpler. After a good night, get out of bed the next morning, and everyone will go their own way and have nothing to do with each other.

Speaking of dating again, Yao Jing didn't suddenly realize one thing until today.

It has been more than three months since he took Xiao Jiangzhi to live at home, and Lu Xun took Xiao Jiangzhi back to Shanghai. During this period, he never once asked those people outside.

Because of work?

Or is it because Lu Jinchang forcibly occupied his private time?

But no matter what the reason, during this period of time, he has indeed been quite contented.

Yao Jing is still recalling the question that Lu Jinchang said just now in his mind.

Since the day he handed Lu Jinchang back to Lu Xun, his responsibilities to Lu Jinchang have come to an end.

The two sides bid farewell to each other and gradually distanced themselves from each other in the future. The ending should have been like this.

But why did he do everything possible to go to Shanghai later?

I'm afraid it's a change of mind.

I don't know when, this little Jiangzhi has weight in my heart, I care more about it than before, and I can't let it go.

And this caring may also contain an emotion called liking.

How much do you like it?Hard to say.

Facing the questions often raised by Lu Jin, Yao Jing felt that what he needed to give was not only a "yes" or "no" answer, but a longer-term consideration.

What if one day, this kid suddenly recovers, wakes up like a dream, and regrets everything he has done before?

Yao Jing thought deeply for a long time, and said to Lu Jinchang: "You are still recovering now, let's talk about this after you recover."

After Lu Jinchang listened, he curled his lips, a little unhappy: "Then I also have the right to like others."

Lu Jinchang: "If I'm like this all my life and I can't recover, can I not fall in love?"

As he spoke, the expectant expression on his face disappeared, and his tone gradually became a little depressed.

Yao Jing couldn't see him showing such a disappointed expression, his heart softened, he frowned subconsciously, and changed his words: "I didn't say I won't let you chase."

Then he jokingly asked: "Tell me, how do you plan to chase after him?"

Lu Jin often looked at Yao Jing and told him what he had already thought in his heart: "I will leave half of the delicious food for you in the future, and I will take you to the fun places. You are afraid of sleeping alone at night. I will sleep with you every day, and I will always be good to you!"

Just as Lu Jinchang finished speaking, Yao Jing vaguely heard someone shouting outside the room.

I saw Lu Jinchang turned his head and responded in the direction of the door: "Okay, right away!"

"My brother urged me to sleep. Let's talk again tomorrow. Don't go back on what you promised. Good night."

When he was about to hang up the line, Lu Jinchang paused, as if thinking of something, he bent his eyes and smiled at Yao Jing in front of the camera, and deliberately added: "Smelly treasure!"

Yao Jing stared at the record of the just-concluded video call on the WeChat interface, the extremely shallow arc of the corner of his lips hanging on his mouth for a long time, until he was interrupted by an incoming call.

The note on the call said "Lu Xun".

Yao Jing thought for a few seconds before pressing the answer button, slowly raised the phone to his ear, and said "Hello".

"Mr. Yao, I'm sorry to bother you so late."

When Lu was looking for him, it was naturally impossible to talk about business. Yao Jing smiled politely: "It's okay, just speak up if you have something to say."

After hearing this, Lu Xun on the other end didn't beat around the bush, but straight to the point: "I hope you will stop looking for my brother after you return from Shanghai this time."
