Chapter 20 He and he finally began to try to reconcile with the past

Lu Xingzhe felt that he was at a loss. He couldn't tell where the loss was, but it was a loss anyway. He shouldn't have meddle in other people's business yesterday. It was none of his business if others patted Xi Nian. Just send him home, and...

Lu Xingzhe's eyes darkened, and he slumped into the back of the chair in vain. Then he took out a cigarette from the drawer and lit it with a lighter. His hands were shaking a little and he lit it twice.

The smell of smoke filled the room, adding a touch of whiteness.

Lu Xingzhe thought, maybe Xi Nian was laughing at him at this time in his heart, laughing at him for losing his wife and losing his army, laughing at him for sending someone to sleep with him for nothing.

The cigarette butt was silently crushed on the corner of the table, and the rain pattered outside the window.

Due to weather conditions and Shen Xilin's injury that caused uproar in the city, the Star Games had to be postponed for a week. This Friday at 8pm, the second round of the knockout rounds will be broadcast on time on the sports channel.

It's been a while since the last video was exposed. Su Ge hasn't shown up for a long time and has been in a state of half-hidden. Although netizens scolded him, they always forgot about it. It wasn't until the show aired that they remembered it again.

Unlike last time when the Grid fans dominated the screen, this time they were unusually quiet and didn’t even make a few bubbles. I don’t know since when, the words “Suge fans” have become something that people are ashamed to speak of..

It is inevitable for others to ridicule and ridicule them. After all, they have offended too many people in the past. When the camera is focused on Su Ge, all the comments on the barrage are vomiting. The smiling face that used to look gentle and handsome now only feels hypocritical and greasy.

On the contrary, Xi Nian's fans have begun to take shape. Before he even starts to draw his bow and arrow on the screen, his fans are already eager to cheer him on.

Ten rings, ten rings!It must be ten rings!

My brother, Xi, never misses a beat!

Xi Nian Tie wins. If you don’t win, I’ll rip off your head.

…

There was only a muffled sound of "whoosh", and Xi Nian lived up to their expectations, hitting the center of the ten-ring circle.The moment the camera zoomed in, some viewers noticed the black armguards on his hands. Thinking of the incident when Su Ge scalded him with water some time ago, they couldn't help but speculate.

Xi Nian wears arm guards to cover his wounds, right?

Eighty percent of the time, counting the dates, it was only one day before Su Ge permed him in the second round of the knockout round, so his hand must be in bad shape.

Why are there so many differences between people? Someone faked an injury and wanted to make it known to the world. Xi Nian was injured and continued to play despite the injury. From the beginning to the end, I never heard him complain a word.

Some people are not fans of Sugar, but are just simple keyboard warriors: it’s just a perm, what’s the big deal? Besides, he’s not good at archery. How can he still get ten rings if he’s really injured?

But soon these remarks were slapped in the face. Xi Nian's injury recurred in the second round of the knockout round. The first arrow was already at the end of his strength. When the second arrow was fired, everyone could see it through the close-up.His hands were shaking badly.

His face turned pale, and the clothes on his back were soaked with sweat, leaving large dark marks, as if he was forcing himself to endure something.

The audience present at the time didn't understand why Xi Nian had not shot the arrow. Now that they understand, they all fell silent.

Through the screen, they saw the man struggling to draw the bowstring and aim again and again despite being injured, and then hit the ten rings one after another. When the referee stepped forward and asked him if he needed medical treatment outside the field,He shook his head in refusal.

Someone noticed that at this time, Xi Nian looked back at the audience. His eyes passed through the obstacles and briefly fell on the fans who were cheering for him at the top of their lungs, and then looked back.

He rarely looked around, his eyes only focused on the target. Occasionally, he drifted a few times and landed on them, all captured by the camera.

When the rice cakes saw Xi Nian enduring the pain and shooting an arrow, they wanted to chop Su Ge to death and were full of murderous intent. But when they saw this scene, their eyes turned red again.

That look in Xi Nian’s eyes just now, ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong.

It turns out that I was once looked at by him with such eyes, suffocated, and died without any regrets, Mom!!!

I cried and felt so sorry for him. At that time, he was being torn apart by a certain fan. He would be scolded if he won and he would be scolded if he lost. But because he was not popular, only a few fans supported him. I only found out a few days ago thatHe also burned his hand with Su Qian Dao

Oh no, no, my eyes are red, Xi Nian, why didn’t we get to know you earlier?

Why didn't we meet you earlier.

You must have suffered a lot when you were not famous. It would be better if we knew you earlier.

They felt heartbroken and could not protect him in his final moments...

Xi Nian was also watching the show. When the barrage of lines flashed in front of his eyes, he supported his head with his hands, frowned and thought hard for a long time, whether someone had said the same thing to him many years ago.

The light above the head was bright, which made people dizzy after staring for a long time. Amidst a bunch of chaotic memories, Xi Nian raised his eyes silently, and seemed to remember something through the constantly changing scenes on the computer screen.

In the suite on the top floor of the hotel, two bodies were once entangled with each other, rolling from the bed to the floor, and then from the floor to the sofa. A dark-haired man with bewildering eyebrows once sat face to face on him, and then gasped and undulated in his ear., breathing intertwined: "Director Zhang's new play, you are the male lead."

The man's red lips wanted to kiss Xi Nian, but he turned his head to avoid it. Xi Nian frowned: "Shao Hansong also participated in the audition, and Director Zhang has already confirmed him."

"Do you know why he was hired," the man whispered in his ear, "because he was with a female financial sponsor. Do you think if the scandal spreads, who would dare to use him?"

Xi Nian's expression softened slightly, and the man smiled when he saw this: "Xi Nian, what would you do if you didn't have me?"

There is no foundation, so no matter if you have acting skills, you will just be robbed of opportunities by those who have connections time and time again.

The man's blurry face suddenly became clearer little by little, and his eyebrows and eyebrows all looked like Lu Xingzhe's. He lowered his eyes, held Xi Nian's face and said seriously, "We should have known each other earlier."

We should have known each other earlier...

Xi Nian didn't understand the meaning of that sentence at the time, but now he suddenly understood it a little better.Human beings are creatures of hindsight. It will take several seconds before you feel pain if your finger is broken. If you have heard something before, it was probably forty or fifty years later that you suddenly remembered it in a quiet late night.Then I realized what it meant.

Xi Nian was slower than them all. It took him a lifetime to realize it now.

The system clearly saw that he was on the verge of death in his previous life and had a sudden regret.

The third round of the Star Games knockout round was rescheduled to Saturday. When Xi Nian went out with his bag in the early morning, he found Sun Ming waiting in his car downstairs, looking at his watch and looking around in a sly manner.

Xi Nianquan pretended not to see him and walked straight to the parking lot. Who would have thought that Sun Ming had sharp eyes and ran over to stop him: "Xi Nian Xi Nian, where are you going? I drove here specially to pick you up."

Xi Nian thought it was strange that he was such a wallflower. He avoided him and walked out: "I can't bear it."

Sun Ming didn't feel embarrassed at all, and still had a smile on his face: "I know, I offended you before because I didn't understand Taishan. You don't remember the faults of villains, but don't remember to hate me. This time I really have something wrong with you."Discuss with you."

After he finished speaking, he forcibly took Xi Nian's arm and pulled him into the car with a smile and a bow. There was a free driver and he didn't need to use it in vain. Xi Nian sat in the back seat of the car and took off his mask: "What's the matter?"

Sun Ming asked his assistant to drive, and then took out a paper contract from the briefcase on the side and handed it to him: "It's like this, the Star Games competition is almost over. The company has considered it and feels that now is the best time for the popularity to rise., so I have accepted a live experience reality show for you, called "Secret Room Decoding". All the people who can participate are popular celebrities. This opportunity is quite rare, and we have been fighting for you for a long time..."

This program is indeed very popular, and Xi Nian has also heard of it. He took the contract from Sun Ming and opened it. However, when he glanced at the first few lines, he paused imperceptibly and raised his eyebrows slightly: "What do you mean?"

What he has in hand is not a variety show contract, but a contract renewal.

Facing Xi Nian's cold gaze, Sun Ming felt a little timid. He thought about it before saying, "Well, it's really not easy for the company to get you this opportunity, and your contract is about to expire, so we might as well sign together.It’s all a mutually beneficial thing.”

Although he was tactful, the implication was clear: he signed the prostitution contract first and then the variety show contract.

Xi Nian thought to himself that the old fox Ouyang Shanxing was not so easy to fool. He held the thirty-year contract in his hand, pondered for a long time, and then smiled slowly: "Renewal is a matter of time, why do we have to rush today?".”

Sun Ming looked at him: "Xi Nian, don't be stupid. The big boss is now willing to use resources to support you. That's a good thing. Others never dream of having this opportunity. If you signed the contract extension earlier, it would be good for me on the variety show.I’ll help you implement it as soon as possible.”

How could Xi Nian be fooled by him in just a few words? He pointed at the contract and said, "I'm not satisfied with these regulations. Let's make an appointment another day and find a place to discuss slowly."

Sun Ming only thought that he was slippery, maybe another day?The contract will expire another day, and there is no hope for Su Ge to come back. Xi Nian and the others must be in their hands. Thinking this, his tone was a little tough unconsciously: "The reason why you are pushing back and forth is that you don't want to sign, shouldn't it be early?"Have you found your next home? Xi Nian, think clearly, other companies may not be able to offer you such generous terms, and don't do stupid things when your mind gets mad, otherwise you won't be able to bear the consequences."

Xi Nian hated threats the most in his life. He looked through the car window and saw that the car had arrived at the entrance of the stadium. He put on his mask again, then threw the contract back in his hand and said with a half-smile: "You guessed it, II just don’t want to sign.”

After saying that, he opened the car door, got out of the car, and then slammed the door with his backhand. The movements were coherent and done in one go. Sun Ming was stunned and didn't even react.

Xi Nian walked straight into the gymnasium, thinking that if he wanted to break up his face, he would be forced to sign a thirty-year contract at Shanxing and leave his life there. He might as well go home and sell sweet potatoes.

After the last knockout round, there are only eight people left in the men's archery group. Because of Xi Nian's almost abnormal ten-ring hit rate, there are now faint rumors on the Internet that there is no doubt that he will be the champion this time, and everyone else is accompanying him.Running.

Xi Nian's ranking on the superstar list has jumped from the bottom to the top three. Although there is still a slight gap in votes compared to Meng Qianlin and Yu Fan, it is not far away. This time the audience has experienced a complete change. Except for Meng Qianlin and Yu Fan,In addition to fans, a full third of the people support Xi Nian.

"Xinian! Come on! Xinian! Come on!"

"We all support you!!"

When Xi Nian came on stage, the sound behind him was so loud that it almost turned his head off. He looked back and scanned the crowd, but he didn't find that familiar figure.

This time, the person competing against Xi Nian was in eighth place. He probably knew that he was here to accompany him and had no hope at all. The commentator used his venomous style as usual and said with emotion: "The result of this competition seems to beThere is no suspense, I wonder if Xi Nian can continue to maintain his level and set a record of ten rings again?"

At the referee's signal, Xi Nian drew the bowstring and aimed the arrow at the bull's-eye. This time, there was no one behind him anymore, but he was filled with honors.

"Whoosh!"

After the muffled sound, it hit the tenth ring.

His results seem to be this single number.

As time gradually passed, the number of arrows on the target not far away continued to increase, and without exception, they were all concentrated in the inner circle in the center.

As the referee said, there was no suspense about the result of this competition. All twelve arrows were shot down, and Xi Nian's score was still a jaw-dropping full ten rings. When the result was announced, thunderous applause rang out from all around, and everyone in the venue was excited.Calling his name.

Fans of Meng Qianlin and Yu Fan think: Is my brother still alive?

Lu Xingzhe was standing behind the crowd. This time he was wearing light-colored clothes and no hat. At a glance, he didn't attract anyone's attention. He looked like an ordinary boy. He still had a camera on his shoulder.Shoulder Bags.

He couldn't explain why he came. Maybe deep down he felt that he had watched the first two games and there was no reason not to watch this one.

After Xi Nian came off the field, he walked directly to the viewing area. Fans stretched out their arms to ask for his autograph. He took the photos and signed their names one by one, and then scanned the crowd as if he was looking for something.

Lu Xingzhe's position couldn't be found without looking carefully, or maybe he never thought that Xi Nian would deliberately look for him, so when his eyes met the man's deep eyes unexpectedly, he was stunned for a rare moment.

There was a lot of hustle and bustle all around, but there was a moment of silence in the air.

In Xi Nian's memory, Lu Xingzhe seemed to always like to cover his face with a hat. On rare occasions when he was so unobstructed, he looked at the other person. For some reason, he couldn't look away for a long time.

Due to Lu Xingzhe's character, he did not show any panic. He just looked at Xi Nian from a distance without showing any emotion, then smiled, whistled frivolously at the latter, turned around and disappeared into the crowd.

Xi Nian signed the last photo in a few moments and handed it back to the fans. He avoided the cameras and returned to the backstage without leaving a trace. He remembered that the direction Lu Xingzhe left just now seemed to be Exit C. He paused and followed.

Xi Nian chose the shortcut. When he followed, he happened to notice Lu Xingzhe's back disappearing in the corner corridor. He followed immediately without thinking, but as a result, he didn't even see the figure when he turned the corner.

"Why are you following me?"

A familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him, like thunder. Xi Nian subconsciously turned around and saw Lu Xingzhe appearing behind him at some point, squinting at him.

Xi Nian didn't answer, or he couldn't answer it himself: "How did you find me?"

Lu Xingzhe said in an incomprehensible tone: "I can't even find this. Isn't it too bad for my job?"

As he spoke, he stepped closer to Xi Nian. He didn't let go of the question he just asked. He looked into his eyes and asked, "You haven't answered yet, why were you following me just now?"

Xi Nian said nothing, seeming to be thinking of a suitable reason.

No matter how many times, Lu Xingzhe would always be tickled by his cold look. After hearing no answer for a long time, he deliberately lowered his voice and said with a hint of playfulness: "Why, you can't bear to leave me, right?"

Xi Nian was about to answer when a sound of footsteps approaching from far away suddenly sounded in his ears. He frowned and pulled Lu Xingzhe into the equipment room nearby, then closed the door behind him.

The lights inside were broken and the surroundings were pitch dark. Only some old and dusty equipment could be vaguely seen. Xi Nian leaned against the door. Only when he heard the chaotic footsteps leaving outside did he realize that he was still holding on to the ground.Xingzhe's hand.

His fingertips paused, and for some reason, he didn't let go.

Lu Xingzhe couldn't see Xi Nian's face clearly. He could only feel the intertwined breathing and heartbeat of the two of them. He lowered his eyes and looked at his grasped hand: "Do you know what you are doing?"

He also asked this question that night. The difference was that Xi Nian was very sober now.

This equipment room had probably not been used for a long time. Dust was beating in the air, and a faint musty smell could even be smelled. Xi Nian tightened his strength slightly, forcing Lu Xingzhe to come closer to him, and then asked a confused question:"Why do you want to help me?"

Lu Xingzhe: "What?"

Xi Nian reminded him: "Su Ge's video."

Lu Xingzhe was stunned when he heard this, and raised his eyebrows imperceptibly: "I don't like him, can't you?"

Xi Nian knew that he was not telling the truth. He probably couldn't stand Lu Xingzhe always looking so proud. He turned around and pushed him directly against the door. He asked with a deep breath: "Don't you hate me when I rejected you that day?"I?"

In his previous life, he had a falling out with Lu Xingzhe, and his reputation was completely ruined.

Xi Nian didn't know why and wanted to know the reason.

Hearing the word "reject", Lu Xingzhe felt as if he had been stepped on and suddenly became irritated. He squinted silently: "Are you following me just to ask these boring questions?"

Xi Nian didn't answer, which was his acquiescence.

The two of them were in a stalemate in this posture, which made Lu Xingzhe unconsciously think of that night. He looked slightly cold and struggled without any warning, trying to push Xi Nian away. In the end, he was restrained by the other party with greater strength and his body collided.There was a dull sound on the door.

Lu Xingzhe couldn't struggle no matter what, and his liver ached with anger. He rolled his eyes, groaned on purpose, and said with a pale face: "You, please let go, I hit my leg, it hurts..."

Xi Nian was startled when he heard this, and his fingertips suddenly relaxed: "Where does it hurt?"

Lu Xingzhe slowly slid down, covering his knees and said: "Legs..."

Xi Nian thought of Lu Xingzhe's personality of not showing weakness easily and believed it, thinking that he was really in pain. He immediately squatted down, groped for Lu Xingzhe's left leg in the dark and asked, "Is it the wound from last time? Does your knee hurt?"

Hearing this, Lu Xingzhe glanced at him quietly in the darkness without saying a word, because he was struggling and breathing heavily, and it looked a bit realistic.

Xi Nian couldn't hear his answer, so he just took it as acquiescence. He rolled up Lu Xingzhe's trousers in the dark and put his hand in. Unexpectedly, his hand was held down.

Lu Xingzhe said in a wary tone: "What are you doing?"

Xi Nian's handsome face fell in the shadow, making it difficult to see clearly. His cold fingertips were close to Lu Xingzhe's calf, and he could faintly feel some calluses: "Look at your injury."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xingzhe slowly let go of him.

Xi Nian rolled up his trouser legs to his knees and groped with his fingertips to check the injuries. He could only feel that there were bumps and bruises, but luckily there were no wet blood stains. He lowered Lu Xingzhe's trouser legs again: "I'll take you there.Hospital."

Lu Xingzhe's eyes kept falling on him: "Why, are you afraid that I'm lame?"

He was just teasing her out of habit, but Xi Nian actually admitted it and said in an emotionless voice, "Well, I'm afraid you're lame."

Lu Xingzhe was slightly startled when he heard this, and was about to say something when he heard Xi Nian ask, "Can I still leave?"

When Lu Xingzhe heard this, his fingertips unconsciously fell on his legs, then he raised his eyebrows and uttered two words: "No."

Xi Nian: "..."

Lu Xingzhe seemed to see his hesitation and stood up from the ground. He avoided Xi Nian's hand and was silent for a long time. Then he suddenly asked in a nonchalant way: "Do you look down on me?"

Xi Nian said: "No."

Maybe I looked down on it in my previous life, but not in this life.

The audience was watching the game, and there was no one outside the corridor at this time. Xi Nian walked out of the equipment room, patted the dust on his body, took out a black mask from his pocket, put it on, squatted down, and said to Lu Xingzhe: "Come up, I'll carry you."

Lu Xingzhe wanted to say that he was just pretending, but looked at Xi Nian's generous back and held back.

Xi Nian felt a heavy weight behind him, and then someone hugged his neck. He glanced back, then stood up and walked downstairs with Lu Xingzhe on his back, walking steadily.

Lu Xingzhe pressed against Xi Nian's hot back. He didn't know what he was thinking. He stretched out his hand and pinched Xi Nian's earlobe: "You are just carrying me like this. Aren't you afraid of being discovered by reporters?"

Xi Nian said quietly: "Don't worry, others are not as boring as you. Even if they find out, they will only praise me for my willingness to help others and help the disabled."

Apart from Lu Xingzhe, no one else could stare at him every day.

Lu Xingzhe was not angry at all. His red lips slowly approached Xi Nian's ear and asked with interest, "What if the two of us sleeping are discovered?"

Xi Nian paused, then continued walking forward: "As long as you don't tell, no one will know."

As he spoke, he had already arrived at the parking lot. Xi Nian didn't drive today. He found Lu Xingzhe's car and unlocked it with the key. He opened the back door and helped people in. He was about to close it when he heard Lu Xingzhe suddenly say: "If I want to say it,Woolen cloth?"

Xi Nian made a move, raised his eyes and met Lu Xingzhe's dark and quiet eyes: "You want to hold me hostage?"

Lu Xingzhe originally just said it casually. Who would have ever wanted to hear his words? An unknown fire ignited in his heart. He directly grabbed Xi Nian's wrist and pulled him into the car. The car door slammed shut.Isolated from everything outside.

In the narrow and dark space, the two people had no choice but to stick together. Lu Xingzhe grabbed Xi Nian's collar and pressed him under him. He couldn't see his expression clearly and reminded him word by word: "Xi Nian, that night was...You take the initiative, I am not begging you to have sex with me."

His tone was calm, but the word "I" revealed his inner emotions.

Xi Nian could even feel his fingertips tightening to the extreme.

Lu Xingzhe said: "This is my first time."

He said: "This is my first time..."

I was forced on the bed by a drunk man, and I spent the night in a daze. The next day I came home exhausted, and then I cleaned my body unfamiliarly.

Even so, he never thought of harming Xi Nian, never.

Lu Xingzhe asked him: "Why, do you think I'm cheap and can sleep with anyone?"

When he said this, his eyes were red. Xi Nian didn't know why, but subconsciously raised his hand to cover his eyes and whispered: "No."

Lu Xingzhe said nothing and breathed heavily.

Xi Nian slowly pulled down his hand that was holding her collar, then turned her body upside down and pressed Lu Xingzhe under her, and repeated in a low voice: "I didn't think so."

Xi Nian said: "It was an accident that day, I was drunk..."

The final sounds of the next few words gradually disappeared in the air, because the hand covering Lu Xingzhe's eyes suddenly felt a little wet. Xi Nian later realized something and paused slightly.

He had never seen Lu Xingzhe cry before.

It's true never.

The light in the car was dim and everything could not be seen clearly. Xi Nian did not move his hand. He knew that Lu Xingzhe didn't like to be seen in embarrassment by others, but he didn't know what to say. As if by mistake, he reached out and put his arm around him.waist, and then with a slight force, pressed the person into his arms.

"Don't cry,"

Xi Nian said: "Don't cry."

He knew Lu Xingzhe's grievances, but he was so selfish and cold-blooded that he rarely thought about it.As the system once said, some people understand everything, but whether they can do it is another matter.

Lu Xingzhe froze the moment he took him into his arms. Neither of them spoke. The air was silent for a moment, and only the sound of heartbeats could be heard, making endless noises.

Xi Nian waited quietly for a long time, until the wet marks under his palms were dry, and then finally moved. At this moment, Lu Xingzhe's low and hoarse voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "Xi Nian, if I hadn't been drunk that day,, do you not care about touching me at all..."

Xi Nian thought to himself, is there anything unusual? It's fine if you and I agree on this kind of thing. He lowered his palm slightly, looked into Lu Xingzhe's dark eyes, and then asked, "Then were you forced by me?"

Lu Xingzhe looked at him and paused: "No one can force me to do anything I don't want to do."

The implication is that he volunteered.

Xi Nian didn't know what he was thinking about. He was silent for a long time after hearing the words, and suddenly laughed softly, making it difficult to distinguish what kind of emotion it contained. He thought of Lu Xingzhe's legs again, so he simply got out of the car and walked around to the driver's seat, then started the car.Heading towards the hospital.

Lu Xingzhe automatically attributed the low laugh to Xi Nian's sneer at him. His face turned pale for a moment. He sat up straight and then slammed the car window: "Stop!"

Xi Nian didn't listen to him and just locked the car doors. Later, he realized that Lu Xingzhe had just lied to him: "What, your leg doesn't hurt anymore?"

Lu Xingzhe's eyes turned red with anger: "This is my car, get out!"

Xi Nian ignored it and drove the car by himself. He got out of the car when it stopped near the hospital, then walked around to the back and opened the car door, and asked Lu Xingzhe calmly: "Do you want to go to the hospital or my house?"

Lu Xingzhe's hands and feet were cold, and his face was bloodless. When he heard this, he gave Xi Nian a cold look, and there was some sarcasm in it for no reason. He stood up and was about to get out of the car, but Xi Nian held his shoulders.

Xi Nian leaned down slightly this time to be at eye level with him. After a moment of silence, he asked seriously again: "Do you want to go to the hospital or my house?"

Xi Nian felt that what he wanted to express was already clear.

What Lu Xingzhe understood was that going home = hooking up, so he threw his hand away angrily: "Fuck you!"

He threw it with too much force, and Xi Nian was unprepared. His right hand was caught off guard and hit the car door with a dull sound. The back of his hand was visibly red.

Xi Nian was stunned because of the words "Fuck you."

And when Lu Xingzhe remembered that Xi Nian had to draw a bow and shoot arrows to participate in the competition, his body suddenly froze, and a rare trace of panic flashed in his eyes: "You..."

He subconsciously grabbed Xi Nian's wrist, and his palms were covered with cold sweat. He was speechless for a long time. His eyes quickly searched the surroundings for the hospital, but he didn't see any shadow. He had to look at Xi Nian: "Where is the hospital?"

I knocked it a bit, but it wasn’t really a big deal.

Xi Nian glimpsed some subtle worry from Lu Xingzhe's tense expression. He paused, then held his hand, feeling a sticky cold sweat. He closed the car door with a bang and whispered:"Go to my house."

It was noon, unlike the continuous rain of the previous few days, the scorching sun hung in the sky. The dense rows of sycamore trees on the roadside cast a shadow. Occasionally a gust of wind passed by, making the leaves rustle.

Lu Xingzhe's mind went blank. He didn't even know how he got to Xi Nian's house. He could only hear the door opening and closing in a daze, making a soft click, and then his back pressed against the cold wall. His waist tightened and he wasThe man's hot breath slowly enveloped her.

Lu Xingzhe woke up in an instant, raised his head and met Xi Nian's deep eyes. The man did not speak, but slowly grasped the back of his head with his slender fingertips, then buried his head and kissed him closely from the collarbone, paused, and finallyfalls on the lips.

Lu Xingzhe didn't know why, but his face turned frighteningly white.

Xi Nian noticed that his body was stiff and raised his eyes to look at him, only to see Lu Xingzhe's lips trembling slightly. He was silent for a moment and asked in a low voice, "Are you unwilling?"

Lu Xingzhe was speechless. Over and over again in his mind, all he could think of was Xi Nian's unexplained sneer in the car. He looked at him with dark eyes and suddenly asked in a confused manner: "What are you laughing at?"

Laughing at him shamelessly?

Or just let people sleep with you casually?

Hearing this, Xi Nian was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was asking. Then he released his hand on the back of Lu Xingzhe's head and said, as if he had read through his inner thoughts, "I'm not laughing at you."

He half-seriously said: "I laugh at myself... I am so charming."

He was actually laughing at karma. Being able to be entangled with a person for two consecutive lives must be said to be a skill.

Lu Xingzhe was dubious. Xi Nian knew that he was sensitive and didn't care. He just caressed his back silently to relax his tense body. Then he pinched Lu Xingzhe's chin and kissed him. He asked vaguely: "Do you remember?Remember how I wanted you that day..."

Breathing low, heartbeat racing.

Lu Xingzhe didn't expect Xi Nian to ask such intimate questions, and his pupils shrank slightly. He turned his head to avoid the man's intimate and passionate kiss, but he couldn't move as if he had been cast a restraining spell. He was hugged and stumbled into the bedroom.Then he fell on the bed.

Lu Xingzhe subconsciously clenched his shoulders, his throat seemed to be blocked by something, dry and astringent: "Xi Nian..."

His voice was trembling.

It was the first time that Xi Nian was sober and so patiently reassured him: "It's okay."

He took off Lu Xingzhe's pants, and with a soft sound of the clothes falling to the ground, the injury on Lu Xingzhe's left leg was exposed to the air. Xi Nian lowered his body slightly, as if to retrieve the memory of that night, next to the ferocious scarHe kissed her passionately, burning her heart.

Lu Xingzhe's eyes turned red: "Don't..."

Of course Xi Nian would not listen to him.

The curtains of the bedroom were tightly drawn, blocking most of the daylight. All the furnishings inside were between light and dark. Xi Nian followed the habits of his previous life, but Lu Xingzhe felt that half of his life was almost gone, and said tremblingly:"Stop...stop..."

He inexplicably remembered the confused night last time, and closed his eyes unconsciously. His fingertips clenched the sheets tightly, and sweat dripped from his chin, leaving a wet mark.

Xi Nian looked at Lu Xingzhe's bright red lips and rubbed them back and forth with his fingertips. Then he was satisfied that the color was getting more and more gorgeous. He lowered his head and kissed her. This time, he felt a bit domineering and wanted to devour her.

Xi Nian gasped and asked him, "How does it feel?"

Lu Xingzhe didn't know whether it was comfortable or not. He only remembered that after the last time he did it, there was no place that didn't hurt. He was silent for a long time and uttered one word in a trembling voice: "It hurts..."

He felt nothing, all he seemed to remember was pain.

When Xi Nian heard this, he paused and looked into his red eyes. Then he reached out his hand, gently brushed away the broken hair from Lu Xingzhe's forehead, and asked in a low voice, "Did you feel uncomfortable last time?"

Lu Xingzhe shook his head.

Xi Nian knew at a glance that he was lying. He kissed his eyes and covered the uneven scars on his legs with his warm palms: "What about here?"

Lu Xingzhe still shook his head and buried his face in the pillow. He didn't say anything for a long time. He didn't know what he thought of. He said in a muffled voice with no emotion: "If you want to do it, do it quickly. Don't ask so many questions."

Xi Nian's rare good intentions seemed to be taken for granted. He buried his head in Lu Xingzhe's neck, feeling a little frustrated.

After an incident, the bed was in a mess.

Lu Xingzhe lay motionless on the bed, his chest rising and falling. He looked at the ceiling. After making sure that Xi Nian made no further moves, he got up and got out of bed, then picked up the clothes on the floor.

Xi Nian saw this and grabbed his wrist: "What are you doing?"

Lu Xingzhe said without raising his head: "Go home."

Xi Nian frowned: "Go home?"

Lu Xingzhe curled his lips sarcastically: "Why don't you drive me away if you don't come back?"

His voice was still a little hoarse and his face was pale. He put on his clothes without saying a word, covering all the bruises on his body. His lower jaw was pointed and thin, and he looked thinner than before.

Xi Nian's eyes darkened when he heard this, and he suddenly laughed angrily. He casually pulled off a piece of clothing and put it on, then pulled Lu Xingzhe back, pinched his chin and asked, "What do you think I am doing by taking you home?"Of? Hooking up?"

Lu Xingzhe indeed thought so.

Xi Nian really didn't know what to do. He tightened his fingertips slightly and thought for a long time before saying, "It's not the case anyway."

Lu Xingzhe thought to himself that you were already shot, but now he told me that it was not the case: "What's the reason for that?"

Xi Nian took a deep look at him, pursed his lips and said, "...You think about it yourself."

He didn't seem to want to talk anymore, so he took Lu Xingzhe directly into the bathroom. The hot water from the shower head poured down, and water splashed everywhere. Every time Lu Xingzhe was in this situation, he could only be controlled by others. He reacted slowly., and found that his clothes were already wet.

Xi Nian's fingertips brushed the hem of his clothes, helped him clean them, and said with the sound of dripping water: "Wear mine later."

Lu Xingzhe groaned because of his sudden movement, and his legs were so weak that he almost couldn't stand. Xi Nian held his figure firmly, her palms pressed against his back. After a long while, he asked aloud: "Go up."Did you wash it yourself this time?"

Lu Xingzhe's breathing was erratic and his face was flushed. He wondered if I had washed it myself or if a ghost had washed it for me.

In the hazy water vapor, he could barely see Xi Nian's face. He could only feel the other party's strong body. He vaguely heard the other party say something: "You walked too fast last time."

When Lu Xingzhe heard this, his heart skipped a beat: "What did you say?"

Xi Nian: "Nothing."

After taking a shower, he directly carried Lu Xingzhe out of the bathroom, then leaned over the bed. When his hands were removed from behind him, he touched his face instead. Xi Nian pushed his wet black hair away and said: "Don't wander around, I'll get you some clothes."

His eyes seemed different from before.

Lu Xingzhe vaguely guessed something, but he wasn't quite sure. He stared blankly at Xi Nian's back, the words swirling on the tip of his tongue, but he couldn't come up with the question.

After Su Ge was hidden in the snow, Xi Nian finally felt for a moment that the current path was not too bad. He began to try to get out of the demonic obstacles of the past and reconcile with himself in the previous life.

And Lu Xingzhe...

Xi Nian took out a set of clothes from the closet. When he turned around, he saw him looking at her. He handed over the clothes in his hand and asked, "Why are you staring at me?"

Lu Xingzhe had just finished taking a shower, and his features were clean. He lowered his head to put on his clothes, buttoning up the buttons one by one. He was silent for a moment, and suddenly said without warning: "I don't have to be a paparazzi."

Xi Nian paused.
