Chapter 48

But before Xu Linshen could answer, he whispered again: "And... aren't you helping Senior Ye talk about this role?"

His voice was so hoarse and indistinct that it was almost incomprehensible. After saying this, his lips pursed tightly, but the sadness in his eyes and face almost overflowed.

Xu Lin was taken aback for a while, but he couldn't help but laugh, so did he actually mind being jealous all the time?

Then the joy that floated up in his heart because of his awkward and sad words was quickly dissipated by the deep heartache. It is unimaginable that if he has been misunderstanding like this, what he did at that time would have caused him. It is almost entirely cruel and cruel.

No wonder he misunderstood, he should have explained it to him from the beginning.

"Before, it was just my father who asked me to take care of him, so our relationship is actually mediocre, not what you think."

Hearing this, Chu Yan looked up at him, and seemed a little lost because of the alcohol. The black and white eyes stared at him blankly, and there was a faint light of water in them.

He looked a little sad like this, as if he had been let down by himself...

When this thought came to the surface, Xu Linshen's guilt became stronger, almost divided from eight to ten. His eyes were full of pity, and he leaned over and whispered: "So don't be sad, I won't hide anything from you in the future. okay?"

Chu Yan replied softly, and after a while, he hesitated and asked, "Then I... do you want to find a time to apologize to Senior Ye, after all, I misunderstood him last time..."

When he said this, his voice was low and small, no matter how he listened, no matter how wronged, he said he wanted to apologize, but his expression was full of "I don't want to."

Xu Linshen still doesn't know him, he knows that this person is very small in love, how can he be so generous and considerate, but because of this, he can't help but feel more distressed. In that case, this person might be jealous to the point of mind, and it is estimated that he is still feeling uncomfortable.

Otherwise, when someone mentioned Ye Jingyun, he would look extremely uncomfortable.

Xu Linshen couldn't help teasing him: "Do you really want to apologize?"

Chu Yan pursed his lips.

He looks like he's about to die from grievances...

Xu Lin sighed deeply, touched his hair and smiled: "If you don't want to see him, it's better to try to disappear in the future."

Chu Yan said softly: "I didn't think so... How could I not see him, he is your brother after all."

Xu Lin sighed deeply: "It's just a thin blood relationship. For a family like ours, the relationship is already very good now, and we don't need to ask for too much..."

——

Because of the fire of "Thunder", Chu Yan's workload has increased a lot. Regarding this situation, while Xu Linshen is happy for him, he is also a little worried that his body will be overwhelmed by such high-intensity work.

However, such a workload was the result of Fang Dingyao's streamlining of his work.

In such a busy work, Director Li's movie audition also arrived quickly. The audition site was arranged at the Z Film Academy. Chu Yan tried the male lead, so he went out after breakfast early in the morning.

There were many people at the audition site. While waiting in the lounge, Chu Yan also saw Ye Jingyun who came with him.

The other party was chatting with the agent next to him in a low voice. When he saw him, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a polite smile.

The audition process was very fast. It was nothing more than the director asking some questions about the script of the movie, and then there was a performance without physical objects, so it didn't take long to end.

Fang Dingyao raised his hand and glanced at his watch: "It's almost half past ten. I have to go back to the company for a meeting later. You can ask Cheng Yang to take you back first, and you can rest in the afternoon."

Chu Yan nodded.

But before leaving the school gate, he was stopped by someone.

The place to eat is in a restaurant near the school. Ye Jingyun looked at Chu Yan and said, "Zhong Yu, in fact, during this time, I have been wanting to find you for a meal."

"But the two of us seem to be very busy recently, so we haven't found much opportunity."

Chu Yan lowered his head and took a sip of water, then raised his head and smiled and said, "Well... I just want to... apologize to Senior Ye for what happened before."

His smile was short-lived, not even a smile. But different from the stylized, alienated and perfunctory smile when he faced himself before, this one now feels inexplicably more cordial and friendly.

Kind and friendly?

Ye Jingyun paused for a few seconds because of his sudden thought, then unconsciously rubbed his fingers on the edge of the delicate white porcelain coffee cup, and asked somewhat vaguely, "Why do you want to apologize? "

Chu Yan hesitated for a while, then slowly said: "The words I said to you last time were actually very rude. I shouldn't treat you like this because of my random guesses..."

Ye Jingyun's eyes fell on the arm he placed on the dining table, and found that there was still a red wound on it, similar to a scald, which was particularly eye-catching against the surrounding fair skin.

Ye Jingyun took his eyes away from his arm, sighed meaningfully, and smiled bitterly: "Who would have thought that such a misunderstanding would be caused, in fact, I feel very sorry for you and eldest brother."

"I thought your misunderstanding was about Le Huo, or something else... But I didn't expect it to be because of me..."

Chu Yan forced a smile and interrupted him: "Forget it, it's all over."

"Yes, it's all over." Ye Jingyun looked at him and said calmly, "Fortunately, the misunderstanding between you and my eldest brother has been resolved, otherwise I'd really be a big sinner... But I'm apart from this today. Besides, I have a few words to tell you..."

Ye Jingyun put one arm on the table and leaned forward slightly, showing a serious attitude.

Chu Yan nodded and sat up straight: "Go ahead."

Ye Jingyun paused for a while, and then said slowly: "I have been studying abroad with my elder brother for so many years... To tell you the truth, I actually envy you very much."

Chu Yan was stunned for a moment, and asked softly, "Envy?"

"Well. Although he treats me very well, that kind of goodness is a responsibility from my brother. Only for you, I can feel that he really takes you to heart."

Ye Jingyun frowned, looked at Chu Yan and seemed puzzled: "So I have never understood why you misunderstood like this, can you really not see how he treats you? Besides, why do you I never thought of going over to ask him, to believe him, and sentenced him and myself to death in my heart?"

His tone was not questioning, but when Chu Yan heard it, his face turned pale, his body froze slightly, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Ye Jingyun put a bowl of soup in front of him with a spoon, and said slowly: "I don't mean to blame you, I just want to tell you that my elder brother really cares about you, and since the accident, his body has The situation is not as good as before, and if he doesn't say many things, you probably won't find out... So don't let him down."

Chu Yan nodded, his eyes moved slightly, and his voice was hoarse: "I know..."

Ye Jingyun sighed: "Do you really know?"

Chu Yan raised his eyes to look at him, but saw a questioning look in his eyes.

"You will always look at problems from your own point of view, even at this point... Don't you still understand what my brother has paid for you?"

Chu Yan stopped breathing and looked at Ye Jingyun for a moment.

Ye Jingyun shook his head and smiled helplessly: "You still don't know... You told me last time that my brother became what I am now to save me, I didn't tell you at the time, but my elder brother asked me before. I'm afraid you'll be sad when you know the truth."

"But I feel now... If you don't let you know the truth, you may never know how much he cares about you, and how hurtful your suspicion and distrust of him are."

"what?"

"That night, the two of us were trapped in the fire, because I was outside the studio at the time, so the eldest brother did find me first... Probably because of this, you misunderstood."

Having said this, Ye Jingyun's eyes were a little sad: "But you went into a coma right after, so you don't know what happened, and of course you don't know... When the whole steel protective wall fell down, My brother, how did he keep you under him?"

Ye Jingyun closed his eyes heavily, and said in a choked voice, "But I saw everything..."

——

After Xu Linshen read the email, he looked up at the time, and found that it was past eight o'clock in the evening.

He has Chu Yan's schedule today, except for a director Li's audition, he has no other work. It stands to reason that he should have returned long ago.

He hesitated to make a phone call to ask, but he also hesitated to think that Zhong Yu's character was always free, and he was too annoying.

It wasn't until half past eight, when he couldn't help but decide to make a phone call, when there was a movement at the door.

Xu Linshen put down his phone, pushed his wheelchair to the door, and said with a smile, "I'm back."

Chu Yan stared at him for a while before nodding and said, "En."

The meal was ordered for takeaway from the hotel. After eating, Chu Yan packed up the things. When he returned to the bedroom, he saw Xu Linshen sitting in a wheelchair, bending down with difficulty to pick up a document that had fallen on the ground.

Chu Yan hurriedly walked over and picked it up for him. He looked up, but found that his expression was the same as usual, as if he had long been used to it.

Getting used to this, things that are too simple for other people to be mentioned, but here he can't do it with all his strength.

Xu Lin looked at the blue and black under his eyes deeply, and said distressedly: "I have already washed, so you should wash up and rest early."

I finally had a free day today, but didn't expect the actors and stars to be so busy that they didn't even have time to sleep.

"Um."

Sleeping until midnight, Xu Linshen faintly heard a burst of uncontrollable crying. He woke up from his sleep, and thought he had heard it wrong, but after a few seconds, he heard a few more extremely loud voices from beside him. Suppressed sobbing.

Xu Lin froze in his heart and snapped out his hand to turn on the lamp on the bedside, only to see the person beside him pursing his lips tightly in his sleep, the whole person trembled slightly because of the uncontrollable whimper, and the corners of his eyes kept coming. Tears rolled down the floor, and the pillow was wet with tears.

Xu Lin froze for a moment, pulled the towel on the shelf beside the bed to wipe his tears, and then lightly patted his cheek: "Zhong Yu."

But in the next week, for several nights, Xu Linshen found that he would have nightmares, but sometimes he would wake up by himself, and sometimes he had to wake up by himself.

He shouted several times in a row, and the other party opened his eyes suddenly as if in shock.

Suddenly facing the bright light, he was lost for a moment, his thin eyelids were red from crying, and he kept staring at Xu Linshen for a long time, and then he seemed to slowly recover from that state of shock.

Xu Linshen sighed at his gaze: "Have you had a nightmare?"

Chu Yan kept staring at him, as if he didn't understand what he said, and nodded after a long time.

Xu Linshen stretched out his hand and took him into his arms, listening to his still uncontrollable choking, and patted his palm lightly on his thin back. He comforted her in a gentle tone: "Don't be afraid, it's just a dream... Can you tell me what kind of dream it is?"

"What..." The voice was hoarse and a little crying, muffled.

Xu Lin knew deeply that he probably hadn't recovered yet, so he didn't ask any more questions. He just hugged him silently, and kissed his sweaty forehead and temples: "Go to sleep."

After about five or six minutes, the talent in his arms finally stopped choking, and Xu Lin asked in a low voice, "I turned off the lights?"

There was no answer for a while, and it took a long time to hear him say: "I want to take a bath..."

The voice was so hoarse that it was almost inaudible.

There was indeed a cold sweat on his back, Xu Lin deeply touched his sweaty hair: "The water is warmer."

Chu Yan went into the bathroom with her pajamas in her arms. Xu Linshen leaned against the head of the bed, listening to the sound of water rushing from the bathroom, but she didn't feel sleepy at all.

What dream made him sad like this? Xu Lin thought about it for a while, and after about twenty minutes, the sound of water inside still did not stop.

Xu Lin called him worriedly, "Zhong Yu?"

But in the middle of the night, there was nothing in the whole room except the sound of water coming from the bathroom.

This deadly silence made Xu Lin's heart skip a beat, and he shouted again, but there was still no response inside.

Xu Lin's face changed, he reached for the wheelchair beside the bed, struggled to the bathroom door, and knocked on the door: "Zhong Yu?"

The incessant sound of water was still in response, and an indescribable panic spread in Xu Linshen's heart. He slammed the door open, but only glanced at it, and the blood all over his body froze instantly.

There seemed to be an overwhelming sea of ​​blood in front of him. Zhong Yu was lying in the bathtub, wearing only a thin pajamas, with one hand resting on the edge of the bathtub. The porcelain white bathroom floor tiles were covered with bloodstains that meander, and the water in the entire bathtub was full of blood. They were all dyed light red, and the faucet was still gushing out...
