Chapter 23

Described together with jealousy, love is terrifying, and the most ugly and despicable jealousy is born in the most brilliant love.

But empathy does not mean empathy. Li Xiao can't empathize with Shi Yu's jealousy and possessiveness. In his past cognition, this kind of emotion is only distorted and abnormal. He is naturally disgusted and resistant to it, so It is impossible to give back the same degree of affection to Shi Yu, and his frivolous sympathy and pity are like a drop in the bucket for what Shi Yu wants from him, so weak that it is not worth mentioning.

Not everyone can be a savior. If you want to save someone, you can't just say I will take care of you. Li Xiao felt pressured and tired, and he wanted to give up.

"I'm serious," he said, "if you really can't take it, there's no need to force yourself."

12.1

Speaking of this, it is almost tantamount to driving people away.

Shi Yu's eyes turned red again, Li Xiao turned his face away and stopped looking at him.

He hugged the cat and turned around to enter the study. Shi Yu was behind him, his voice trembling slightly, as if he had changed his tone: "...Are you going to drive me away because of it?"

Li Xiao stopped at his feet, and another anger was born in his heart.

He didn't understand why in Shi Yu's heart, everything was either one or the other, they couldn't coexist, and he had to choose one of them.

He held back his breath, turned his back to Shi Yu, and just before closing the door, he said coldly, "You can think whatever you want."

Li Xiao and Shi Yu entered into a cold war. He was holding his breath and didn't want to speak, but Shi Yu couldn't hide it at last. He was no longer as careful as before, hiding carefully and prudently flattering him, as if some kind of face was being manipulated. Uncovering it, he finally exposed the gloomy, paranoid, pathologically twisted side of his nature.

Li Xiao didn't want to go home to face Shi Yu, so he went out early and returned late again.

"I told you that you can't get involved with that kind of person," Peng Xun said sarcastically, and smiled, "Is it a fire now?"

Li Xiao drank another glass of wine, ignoring his heartlessness.

Unwilling to be lonely, Peng Xun continued, "Not even a cat is allowed. This kind of person is too scary. I think you should be more careful. You know that kind of social news..."

Li Xiao came here to drink wine for a few days, and Peng Sun whispered in his ear like this for a few days, either committing suicide for love, or killing someone for love, it was simply sensational, Li Xiao was really disturbed, Said: "It's almost Chinese New Year, why are you so idle recently, does your brother ignore you?"

One sentence seemed to have adhesive, and it sealed Peng Xuan's mouth firmly. His face was pulled down, with a displeased expression on his face: "Can you stop me from hearing about him while I'm here?"

Peng Sun's parents passed away early, and his older brother has always raised him up, but he probably spoiled him too much. The older he gets, the more shameful he is. Finally, his old mother-like brother can't stand it anymore. He thinks that even if he is gay, he can't live like this every day. , so he planned to give him a blind date, which made Peng Sun so annoyed that he simply ran away from home and had lived in the store for more than half a month.

Talking to tell Li Xiao to shut up, Peng Xun couldn't help but irritatedly said: "Is there something wrong with him? He even has to worry about me finding a boyfriend. Don't you think it's a simple matter for my brother to find a brother-in-law for me?" Is it too funny?"

Li Xiao said, "Probably because you are really worrying."

"...I'm going to hit someone!" Peng Xun was about to die of anger, and then said, "Aren't your parents worried?"

Li Xiao: "They're too busy fighting, they don't have time to care about me."

"..." Peng Xun was speechless for a moment, but the situation of Li Xiao's parents has been known to everyone for so many years, so he finally patted Li Xiao's shoulder sympathetically, "It's hard for us Lili."

The corner of Li Xiao's mouth twitched: "Shut up."

Even Ruan Xingtong advised him: "If you still want to get along, you should discuss the problem with others and explain it clearly. If you don't want to get bored, you should find a way to get out as soon as possible. What's the point of procrastinating like this?" , you are consuming yourself, I feel tired for you."

Li Xiao pinched the center of his brows, and said in a distressed tone, "This problem can't be solved. He thinks completely differently from what I think, and he's not the same person at all."

Ruan Xingtong looked puzzled, and said: "Then it's over, if you can't make it through, then break up - anyway, you said it yourself, you don't count as being together, what are you struggling with?"

What she said is very simple, but everyone understands the truth, and everyone will say it, but when things come to an end, it is often easier to know than to do.

But Li Xiao himself couldn't tell what he was struggling with.

It is clear that he has already said a lot of cruel words, but for some reason, he still can't say the most decisive words.

The end of the year is approaching, and it is time for year-end inventory in all walks of life. There is basically no new business, let alone Li Xiao, a newly opened studio. Even Ruan Xingtong, a workaholic, is thinking about whether to take a vacation early and let people go. Buy a ticket to go home.

Li Xiao went to the company to make a card during the day, exchanged some emotional problems with Ruan Xingtong, got nothing, and returned home early, but Shi Yu went to work normally, and hadn't returned home yet, the room was empty and quiet of.

Li Xiao rushed into the house and called out Taozi——the little milk cat was white and round when it first came, and had thin fluff, and it looked like a white peach when it was lumped together, so Li Xiao named the cat Baitao, After shouting for trouble, it was simplified into peaches.

He shouted a few times, but the cat in the form of a clingy spirit still disappeared. Li Xiao searched all the rooms, including digging under the bed, but couldn't find the cat.

That's when something feels wrong.

Where's the cat? ? ?

Around the same time as usual, Shi Yu came home, and as soon as he entered, he saw Li Xiao sitting on the sofa, as if he was waiting for him.

Since the quarrel between the two, it was the first time that Shi Yu saw that Li Xiao didn't deliberately avoid him, but before he had time to be happy, he saw the gloomy face on Li Xiao's face.

He paused, hesitantly, and wanted to get closer, but he didn't dare to ask, "...what's wrong with you?"

Li Xiao raised his eyelids, looking at him in a way that was definitely not gentle: "Where's the cat?"

Shi Yu was a little dazed: "What?"

Li Xiao stood up, walked in front of him, grabbed his wrist, his face became more gloomy, and even his tone was gritted: "I ask you, where is the cat?"

Shi Yu was frightened by his appearance of wanting to eat people, and after a while, he realized what he meant, the bit of bewilderment faded away, his face was a little pale, but his jaw was tense, he With a cold face, he glanced down at his arm that was grabbed by the other party, and said in a stiff tone: "How do I know?"

Li Xiao didn't intend to let him go, and asked aggressively, "I fed the cat before I went out in the morning, why did the cat disappear when I came back?"

Shi Yu couldn't believe it, and opened his eyes wide. He shook off Li Xiao's hand, and finally showed a trace of anger in his voice: "These days you don't even look at me, and you don't say a word to me. I am the air does not exist, now that the cat is gone, do you start thinking of me?"

"Yeah, I hate that little brute, I hate how it's always clinging to you, I can't wait to throw it out, it's gone just as I wanted it to be, so you think it must be me?"

His voice became hoarse at the end, he stared at Li Xiao, pursed his lips, with a stubborn look, but there was a faint flash of transparent water in his eyes, clearly a wronged and hurt look after being suspected.

Li Xiao's full of suspicion and anger, touched by the other party's expression, finally calmed down slowly, and he also knew that he was looking for trouble for nothing, so he had random suspicions.

For a moment, his heart sank slightly, and a feeling of guilt and self-loathing came up - he didn't know why he was like this, and he didn't even ask the reason, but subconsciously felt that this would be something Shi Yu did.

He pressed the center of his brows, and his voice was a little tired: "Sorry, that's not what I meant."

He said that was not what he meant, but he had no other explanation. He just suspected Shi Yu.

So Shi Yu still bit his lips, his eyelashes trembled, and his eye sockets were a little red, Li Xiao felt even more guilty, stretched out his hand to pull him into his arms, kissed the top of his head, and said softly, "I'm sorry."

Shi Yu was buried in his chest, stiff for a moment, then suddenly he grabbed Li Xiao's clothes tightly, and cried out with a choked voice: "... woo... I thought you didn't want to talk to me anymore..."

Li Xiao stroked his slightly trembling back, truly felt the other party's uneasiness and grievance during the Cold War, and felt a little sore again.

He sighed and said, "No, I didn't ignore you."

But my heart was heavy, and a kind of oppressive shadow never left.

In the end, the cat still couldn't be found. I don't know if he sneaked out when someone opened the door. Li Xiao posted a cat hunting notice in the community, and asked people in his circle of friends to help find it, but there was no news.

And in a blink of an eye, it was the end of the year.

No matter how much Li Xiao usually doesn't want to go home, when it's Chinese New Year, he always wants to go back, and have a New Year's Eve dinner with his parents at his grandfather's place.

On New Year's Eve, Shi Yu got up early in the morning and made a lot of dumplings in the kitchen. Although Li Xiao had told Shi Yu in advance that he could not stay with him for the New Year's Eve, seeing Shi Yu alone, he still felt sad. Feeling unbearable, Shi Yu hugged and entangled him for a long time before going out, his heart softened, and he let go again: "I'll come back early at night."

Shi Yu came together
