Soot, Moonlight, Vodka

"When did you find out?"

"You know, I'm not that smart," Chen Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief: "It wasn't until the time at the racecourse that I was sure it was you. Before... I couldn't believe it."

"The racecourse..."

Wuchen's move was still too obvious.

Originally wanted to win Chen Zhuo's favor, but it was directly exposed.

"You changed a lot of details on your body." Chen Zhuo touched the mole on Lu Xingze's cheek.

He couldn't help but feel heartbroken when he thought of the harm he had brought to this person, the repeated rejection and alienation, and the slap in the face.

"Well, my skin tone is also a little tanned, and I also lost some weight, wearing height increasing shoes..." Lu Xingze confessed one by one.

"I plan to use this name in the future, and live with this identity?"

"Yes." Lu Xingze asked Chen Zhuo's opinion with his eyes: "I want to live with you with this identity. In fact, what I have shown in the past few months is probably my real appearance. I am not as condescending and cynical as you imagined. , when I dated you, I always had airs and made things unpredictable, but... that was because of my status in the Lu family. I was quite worried that you would not like me now, but you really didn’t I like it very much, I was wondering if you would like my previous style better—”

Chen Zhuo looked at Lu Xingze, with a smile on his lips: "Then let me ask you, do you like me who has low self-esteem and nothing, or the self-confident me after becoming a movie star?"

"Of course I like them all."

While Lu Xingze answered the question, he also understood the answer Chen Zhuo gave him.

Chen Zhuo is really a good teacher.

"You're not worried at all. Was I forced to change my identity because I did some illegal business and was wanted?"

"If that's the case, with your personality, you should stay as far away from me as possible." Chen Zhuo smiled and said, "You wouldn't take the initiative to find me."

Lu Xingze had nothing to say.

Chen Zhuo was right on point.

Lu Xingze never understood why Chen Zhuo could trust him so unconditionally.

He could only attribute it to Chen Zhuo's love and the traits in Chen Zhuo's character.

That's something he's been missing.

"Chen Zhuo," Lu Xingze raised his eyes to look at him, his heart pounding, "I want to tell you about my past when I sort out my thoughts."

"I'm waiting for you."

Lu Xingze buried his head on Chen Zhuo's shoulder, and Chen Zhuo patted his head skillfully.

In fact, he loves acting like a baby, but since he was a child, he has never found anyone who can make him put down his body and act like a baby, and Chen Zhuo is the only one.

After getting off the Ferris wheel, Lu Xingze's feet were floating.

For a while, he couldn't adapt to the fact that he was fully exposed in front of Chen Zhuo.

He has been trembling for so long, but Chen Zhuo actually forgave and accepted him like this...

I can't figure it out, it's completely out of his comprehension.

Lu Xingze promises that if someone dares to lie to him like this, he will definitely turn around and leave, and never see him again in this life!

Just thinking about it wildly, the two brought them to the restaurant.

After being seated, the waiter pushed the birthday cake.

A medium-sized birthday cake with roses blooming on top of emerald vanilla cream, Chen Zhuo’s favorite champagne and true red colors, the petals are sprinkled with star-like icing, and surrounded by golden heart-shaped chocolates, small and elegant Overwhelm the guests.

The bottom of the cake is surrounded by a very impressive circle of snow-white shaved ice.

Although this cake is not as gorgeous and exaggerated as the nine-layer gold powder diamond cake that Lu Xingze bought for him in previous years, it is quite delicious, and he likes it both in appearance and taste.

Especially with the idea of ​​shaved ice...

"You arranged this?" Chen Zhuo asked Lu Xingze.

"I made it myself." Lu Xingze plugged in the candle and lit it.

Chen Zhuo opened his eyes slightly.

Even though he knew that Lu Xingze was a quick learner, he was still shocked.

"When I was learning cooking, I learned it by hand." Lu Xingze scratched his head: "I used to buy this and that for you...in fact, it was just to save trouble. This time I want to make it according to your taste."

Chen Zhuo's heart seemed to be lit with candlelight, the warmth melted away, and the root of his nose felt a little sour.

"I like."

"Blow out the candles and make a wish."

Chen Zhuo closed his eyes, he couldn't see anything in front of his eyes, but the best things were in his heart.

At the age of 23, I have experienced the pain of losing my beloved, but also the joy of regaining it. Whether it is Lu Xingze or Xia Zhifeng, as long as he is by my side, all the previous things can be erased.

Chen Zhuo made a wish and blew out the candle.

Opening his eyes, Lu Xingze was still beside him, watching him.

I don't know if it was a psychological effect, but Lu Xingze's eyes seemed to be different from before, no longer as incomprehensible as before, but more pure and sincere, as if he had entrusted everything to him.

"Birthday gift." Lu Xingze took out a small square gift box.

Chen Zhuo untied the ribbon and opened the box. Inside was a braided rope light red collar with a silver bell in the center and a rope attached.

"This is……"

Lu Xingze took out his phone, clicked on a photo, and handed it to Chen Zhuo.

The photo shows a white puppy lying in the nest, only a few months old, and looks very similar to the one Chen Zhuo had a crush on a few years ago. The little guy sleeps soundly with his eyes closed, carefree.

"I saw it at the animal shelter before. I thought it was very cute. I wonder if you would still like to raise it with me." When Lu Xingze said this, he was still nervous.

Chen Zhuo held the collar in his palm and kissed Lu Xingze lightly: "When are you going to pick it up?"

"This weekend if you're free."

After spending a whole day in bed with Lu Xingze, Chen Zhuo returned to work.

As early as a few days before the birthday, some friends and organizers sent blessings and gifts, and there were several people who came to send blessings after the birthday. Chen Zhuo thanked them one by one.

At the beginning when Lu Xingze sent him into the film and television industry, many people knew the backer behind him and treated him very well. Now that Lu Xingze is "gone", Chen Zhuo's career has gone downhill again, and there are fewer people who follow his power, and Chen Zhuo has also become quiet. .

To Chen Zhuo's surprise, Fu Meng had given him a luxury car as a gift before, and today he visited again.

Fu Meng came with a twig on his back.

"Xiao Zhuo, brother is really sorry for you!" Fu Meng pulled out the thorns behind his back in grief and anger, lowered his head, his face was full of pain: "brother, I will apologize to you..."

Only then did Chen Zhuo understand that Fu Meng had already received information from Lu Xingze, knowing that the matter had been exposed.

Fu Meng followed Lu Xingze to deceive Chen Zhuo.

Chen Zhuo's smile was as warm as a spring breeze: "It's okay, brother, come in and have morning tea together?"

He even forgave Lu Xingze, so could he still blame Fu Meng?I also know that Lu Xingze forced Fu Meng to act together, and the source of the crime is still Lu Xingze.

Seeing that Chen Zhuo was not angry at all, Fu Meng was even more frightened: "Don't dare, I... oh, I really shouldn't, I scolded him before, and I told him to confess quickly, but he just didn't listen mine--"

"What are you talking about!" Lu Xingze came out of Chen Zhuo's back in pajamas, and when he heard that he was sold, he glared at Fu Meng: "Stop framing me."

Fu Meng was going to faint with anger: "Xiao Zhuo, I want to tell you all the embarrassing things about him when he was a child, so that he will never be able to hold his head up in front of you again from now on."

"How dare you, I will poison your morning tea." Lu Xingze's eyes were dark.

Chen Zhuo was very interested: "Tell me in detail."

Lu Xingze: "..."
