Inertia Dependence of Rebirth
Chapter 5: They used to be
The Duan family and the Qi family are family friends, while Qi Jingrui and Duan Ling are only three years apart. They almost grew up together.
When Duan Ling was a child, he was not as noisy as ordinary children.He doesn't like to communicate with people and always thinks about things in silence. He hates crowds and doesn't like to laugh, and if someone makes him laugh, he will be cold-faced, so Duan Ling has given people a very arrogant and cold impression since he was a child. .In addition, he is the youngest son of the Duan family, so no one would dare to provoke him, and they would generally stay away from him.But the Duan family has a great reputation. In addition to flattering and currying favor with those who want to curry favor, the upper-class circles will also visit and walk around each other, so the Duan family is always full of guests.
But every time someone came, Duan Ling would run to the living room.He turned cold, stretched his limbs, and sat in the middle of the sofa, deliberately occupying a large space, and exuded an aura that no strangers should enter.The guests saw that the young master of the Duan family obviously acted like I don't welcome you, so who would dare to stay longer?So Duan Ling can scare the guests away every time.In order to correct this bad habit, his father and elder brother tried to persuade him, and even used force to suppress him, but it was useless. Duan Lingqiang was really no match for him.
When Qi Jingrui saw Duan Ling for the first time, Duan Ling was sprawled across the sofa.
Duan Ling didn't expect that the guest of that day would be the Qi family, so he planned to use the same routine to scare them away.
As soon as Qi Jingrui entered the living room, Duan Ling looked up and saw him. As a result, Duan Ling jumped off the sofa immediately. When he got down, his feet were unstable and he almost fell down. Qi Jingrui helped him, and the two of them immediately stuck together Soon, Duan Ling's face turned red.Qi Jingrui looked at him in surprise, but Duan Ling put his head down and ran past him, running all the way with his short legs, until he bumped into his eldest brother, and then he stopped.
The elder brother grabbed him by the back of the collar, "Duan Ling, what are you doing in such a rush?"
Duan Ling threw himself into his elder brother's arms and buried his face in his elder brother's clothes. His stomach ached from his bumping into his elder brother.But Duan Ling's behavior was a little abnormal, he hugged his brother tightly like a tree stump.So the eldest brother touched his head and asked, "What's the matter? Are you seeing a ghost in broad daylight?"
Duan Ling slowly raised his head, glanced out of the corner of his eye, and suddenly found that Qi Jingrui was looking at him, so he quickly buried his face in his brother's clothes.
The eldest brother naturally noticed his little move, so he laughed and teased, "You lost the fight with someone, right? So now you don't have the face to face people?"
Duan Ling muffled: "No."
The eldest brother tore Duan Ling off his body, and Duan Ling ran behind him to hide, and pulled his clothes tightly.This time the elder brother felt very strange.
"Duan Ling, did you do something bad to the guest again? This is your brother Jing, you can't bully him."
The eldest brother knelt down and pulled Duan Ling in front of him, and was about to discipline him, but he was surprised to find that Duan Ling's face was already flushed.
The eldest brother was taken aback, "Hey, why are you so shy all of a sudden? Your new strategy?" He patted Duan Ling's face, but Duan Ling still remained silent.The eldest brother cast a puzzled look at Qi Jingrui again, but of course Qi Jingrui didn't know.
At this moment, Duan Ling suddenly made a sound, the sound was so small that the eldest brother had to put his ear close to hear it.
Duan Ling picked up the elder brother's clothes again, and whispered in his mouth: "He looks really good..."
It took ten seconds for the elder brother to realize what Duan Ling had said.
"Duan Ling! You've been looking at people's looks since you were so young, right?"
Since then, Duan Ling's bad habits have been corrected, and he has become attached to the eldest son of the Qi family.
As soon as Duan Ling leaves his home, he feels flustered and uncomfortable. This is caused by the shadow of his childhood, so Mr. Duan never forces him to go out to socialize with others. Duan Ling doesn't like to go to other people's homes, so he always coaxes Qi Jingrui Come home.
In the past, Duan Ling could only follow his brother, but now he has finally changed his partner.Qi Jingrui has a good temper, even if Duan Ling is so clingy to him, he is not impatient at all.As a result, Duan Ling often hugged his waist, hugged his thighs, rubbed his cheeks, and occasionally kissed him. Qi Jingrui accepted all these behaviors one by one, without any shyness or unnaturalness.Sometimes, when Duan Ling came over, he would rub Duan Ling's head.
They have been getting along like this for many years, and some slightly childish little habits have not changed until they grow up and become adults.For example, Duan Lingfei had to wait for him to be together before eating; for example, when walking together, he would subconsciously hold each other's hand.Even on rainy days, Duan Ling will forget to bring an umbrella, because Qi Jingrui has always been the one who holds an umbrella.
These are habits engraved in the bones.
Later, the elder brother teased Duan Ling once, "Is he your brother or me? I think you two are more like brothers. Oh, maybe you really are a long-lost couple?"
Duan Ling understood, "Brother, I know you're jealous."
"Fuck you, I didn't. I have recognized you as a heartless person. If you have someone else, you will neglect your brother and me."
Duan Ling chuckled, and leaned over to apologize, "Brother, can't I be wrong?"
The elder brother snorted softly and laughed, "Come on, you're right, please keep it up, I wish I could relax."
Duan Ling also laughed, and he was quiet after a smile, "Brother, so you found out too."
"Heh," the elder brother gave Duan Ling a sideways glance, "The ones you can't see so clearly are blind, especially you, I wish everyone in the world knew about your relationship."
"So obvious?"
"You are so arrogant."
Duan Ling asked again, "But you said just now that he regards me as a brother. Do you think this is the relationship between us?"
"Of course not brothers." The elder brother said.
Hearing this, Duan Ling said seriously: "Fortunately, I'm not the only one who thinks this way, I thought I was just being sentimental..."
Duan Ling breathed a sigh of relief, and before he had time to secretly rejoice, the eldest brother added another sentence.
"Actually, I think he treats you as his younger sister."
Duan Ling was stunned.
The eldest brother slowly lowered his crossed legs and stood up, while Duan Ling still maintained that posture, the eldest brother finally couldn't help but curled the corners of his mouth, "Ahem, classmate Duan's soul returned."
Duan Ling saw the successful smile on his elder brother's face, and realized that the other party was teasing him.
Duan Ling glared at him, "Duan Heng, you are enough, I trust you so much and came to ask for your opinion, but you are old enough to make such jokes with young people, can you be more reliable?"
The elder brother laughed loudly, "Okay, okay, I won't tell you."
"Then go ahead and answer my questions."
The eldest brother shrugged, "Actually, you can ask him directly. Others are outsiders, so how can you know clearly."
Duan Ling was silent.After a while, he said: "No, I can't ask him."
"Ah? Why is that?"
Duan Ling sighed softly, "Do you think you can get the result? Probably not the result I want."
"Why do you say that?"
Duan Ling did not answer.
Duan Ling felt that maybe Qi Jingrui didn't like him that much, and he was gentle and polite to other people, even though there was actually a little alienation in it.
But Duan Ling is very paranoid in some aspects, love and hate are often more extreme, he will completely trust people who he trusts, otherwise he will not communicate at all.If he likes someone, he must want everything from the other person.He wants the other party to be as crazy as he is.In front of dependent people, the self-willed and childish aspects of his character are revealed.
For example, sometimes, Duan Ling would be having fun outside at night, Qi Jingrui never blamed him, but he never called him, and every time it was the old man and brother who urged him to go home.Duan Ling couldn't wait for the phone call he wanted, even if he stayed in a colorful place, he was absent-minded.So after dealing with it for a while, he had no choice but to go back obediently.
There was a time when Duan Ling didn't come home all night. He stayed in a room alone in the hotel, smoking a cigarette while watching the phone, and then stayed up all night like this.He went back early the next morning, and he never tried again.
This kind of behavior, in the eyes of the other party, is probably extremely naive.
Duan Ling expects the other party to show that he can't leave him, but that person is always calm, and in the end the person who really can't leave him is himself.
Qi Jingrui seemed to be able to leave him freely at any time.
Duan Ling had tasted this feeling of being abandoned at any time when he was a child. He was afraid of this feeling and hated it so much. It made him very depressed, but the other party made him taste this bitterness repeatedly. and torment.
Subtle pain accumulated little by little, the more Duan Ling restrained that uneasy emotion, it would become more arrogant.But Duan Ling still wanted to be with him, so he suppressed the strange emotions in his heart and forced himself to settle down.But the rift will not disappear because of this, the pain in the heart for a long time, the conflict will instead erupt in a more extreme form.
Duan Ling still clearly remembers how he completely gave up on his birthday.
When Duan Ling was a child, he was not as noisy as ordinary children.He doesn't like to communicate with people and always thinks about things in silence. He hates crowds and doesn't like to laugh, and if someone makes him laugh, he will be cold-faced, so Duan Ling has given people a very arrogant and cold impression since he was a child. .In addition, he is the youngest son of the Duan family, so no one would dare to provoke him, and they would generally stay away from him.But the Duan family has a great reputation.
