Chapter 60
Seeing that it was snowing, Lu Yuzhi planned to drive here first.
Just when was about to say something to brother, saw the two holding hands when turned around.
He frowned and wanted to say something, but he noticed his younger brother's eyes.
"..."
This kind of look appeared in him before, and it was seen in Yu Jing.
Now it's my brother.
Lu Yu's eyebrows became tighter, and he looked away.
Lu Xiaoyuan didn't recover until he heard footsteps behind him. Turning his head, he saw that the second brother had already left in the distance.
"Second, second brother?"
Why didn't you wait for him.
Lu Xiaoyuan said to Yu Jing: "Then, then I'll go first, you should rest early today."
Yu Jing nodded: "You too."
After saying goodbye, Lu Xiaoyuan hurried to chase after him.
"Second brother!"
After all, the second brother did not abandon him and stopped halfway to wait.
Lu Xiaoyuan was out of breath: "Why did you leave first?"
Lu Yuzhi: "I thought you two had something to say."
Eh?
Lu Xiaoyuan was taken aback.
Lu Yuzhi: "Are you finished?"
Lu Xiaoyuan scratched his head: "There's nothing to say."
Lu Yuzhi was silent for a moment, stretched out his hand to grab his younger brother's arm, and walked forward.
The ground is a little wet. Lu Xiaoyuan staggered and almost fell.
He followed people in a daze. When approaching the front of the car, I heard my second brother say: "Have you decided yet?"
Lu Xiaoyuan: Huh?
"If this is your idea, I won't stop it." Lu Yuzhi frowned, "You just have to go your own way."
What are you talking about.
Lu Xiaoyuan didn't quite understand.
Lu Yuzhi finally stopped and turned around.
"Do not worry."
The amber eyes see through the night, and the five fingers clasped tighter.
"No matter what, I will accompany you."
What the second brother said almost gave Lu Xiaoyuan an illusion.
I am about to go astray, and my second brother is here to persuade me now.
But obviously nothing happened.
So Lu Xiaoyuan only showed a slightly puzzled smile at the end, and tilted his head.
Lu Yuzhi didn't explain much, just said: "It's cold outside, get in the car."
Today, the second brother drove to pick him up at home.
Originally, after the second brother proposed to come to the concert, Lu Xiaoyuan also went to ask the eldest brother if he wanted to come together.
However, the other party seemed to have already made arrangements, so he refused.
Due to the temperature difference inside and outside the car, white mist condensed on the car windows, and it was almost impossible to see the outside scenery clearly.
Lu Xiaoyuan sat in the co-pilot. Occasionally, white snow falls and splashes on the window.
He unconsciously thought of the snowflakes that fell on the back of his hand just now, and stroked the back of his hand with the tip of his right finger. I don't know whether I am recalling the melting snow, or recalling the temperature just now.
Although every time he talks to unfamiliar people, his heart beats faster and his face turns red, and he stutters occasionally.
But he has known Yu Jing for so long and became friends, why does this happen?
At that time, Yu Jing's hand was not warm at all. The body temperature of the other party is lower than his, especially the fingertips.
But when the fingertips ran across the back of his hand, he felt the temperature rise sharply. Feeling warm all over.
bang.
He pressed his head sideways against the cold car window, and clenched his palms tightly.
About an hour later, arrived at the road house.
From a distance, can see the warm light in the villa.
After the car stopped, Lu Xiaoyuan hesitated and asked the second brother if he wanted to go in together.
This time, the other party didn't categorically refuse as usual, but just looked at him silently.
Lu Xiaoyuan thought he had hope: "It's already very late today, why don't you just sleep here?"
Lu Yuzhi frowned, as if he was thinking.
Lu Xiaoyuan was planning to take advantage of the victory to pursue, when suddenly a car light projected from behind.
The two paused at the same time and turned their heads to look back.
A figure got out of the car, and Lu Xiaoyuan quickly recognized him.
He opened the car door and went down to call someone: "Brother."
Lu Ling approached this way, raised her hand and patted the loose snow on his shoulder: "How about the concert?"
Lu Xiaoyuan nodded, expressing that it was very good.
"It's too cold," Lu Ling said, "Go back and take a shower first."
"it is good……"
Lu Xiaoyuan responded, then hesitated, "I think, let the second brother live here today."
"Of course," Lu Ling said lightly, "if he wants."
"I don't want to."
A male voice came.
Lu Yuzhi got out of the car at some point, and put his hands on the top of the car door, speaking in a bad manner.
"You are such a busy person. What is so important that even Xiao Yuan can't accompany you?"
Lu Ling looked over: "Isn't there you?"
Lu Yuzhi: "..."
"Besides," Lu Ling said, "Don't you always think I'm an eyesore?"
Lu Yuzhi twitched the corner of his mouth: "Unfortunately, there is someone who is more annoying than you."
Lu Ling frowned, and was about to say something when she heard the next sentence.
"It's too late."
Lu Ling stopped talking.
The cold wind blew through the room between the two, icy cold and biting.
The roof of the car was covered with falling snowflakes, which were stained white.
Lu Xiaoyuan looked left and right.
Why does it feel like the eldest brother and the second brother are playing dumb, why is it too late?
After a while, Lu Ling opened her mouth. With the exhalation of the breath, the hot air instantly condensed into a white mist.
"Dad is having surgery today."
As soon as the words were spoken, the air fell into silence for an instant.
Lu Xiaoyuan was completely ignorant of this matter, and after a brief moment of stupefaction, he asked: "Dad is undergoing surgery, why..."
Don't tell him.
"Dad doesn't want you to worry, and neither do I."
Lu Ling patted his head: "Don't worry, the operation was a success, and he will be discharged from the hospital after a month of rest and observation."
This made Lu Xiaoyuan heave a sigh of relief, and said, "Then, can I go to the hospital to see him?"
Lu Ling's expression softened a bit: "Yes. But today is too late, I will take you there tomorrow."
Lu Xiaoyuan nodded.
From now on, the people around me have been silent.
Because he was afraid of stepping on a landmine, Lu Xiaoyuan never took the initiative to mention his father in front of his second brother.
The other party's reluctance to enter the house so far is enough to prove that there is still a gap in his heart.
Lu Xiaoyuan looked carefully.
The second brother couldn't discern any emotion on his face, he just looked in this direction quietly. But the focal length has not been gathered, Shensi seems to have gone elsewhere.
Lu Xiaoyuan tried to ask: "Second brother... do you want to go together tomorrow?"
After a pause, Lu Yu finally regained his senses.
Two eyes fell on him.
He seemed to be evading, lowered his head, and frowned: "I..."
Lu Xiaoyuan nervously waited for a response.
"...I will think about it for a while."
The volume is extremely weak compared to usual, and it almost melts into this long winter night.
Lu Xiaoyuan didn't hear it very clearly, and was about to ask, when he saw the person sitting back in the car.
The engine roared, and the exhaust smoke came out. The car drove away and was quickly plunged into darkness.
Lu Xiaoyuan froze in place.
At this time, someone touched his shoulder.
"Xiao Yuan, let's go in."
Lu Xiaoyuan responded, but his gaze was still on the direction the vehicle was leaving.
Sure enough, the second brother's knot was not so easy to untie.
At that time, my father did really go too far.
At that time, the only ones who could protect the second brother were the family members. What the father did did not consider the feelings of the second brother at all.
"..."
Lu Xiaoyuan lowered his eyes.
However, deep down in his heart, there was still an extravagant wish buried.
He didn't want his second brother to be alone all the time.
Maybe one day, the second brother can truly return to "home".
Lu Xiaoyuan returned to his room after taking a shower, and found an extra text message on his phone.
It was from Yu Jing.
【are you home yet】
His heart skipped a beat, and he picked up his phone: [Thank you, we're home. And you】
With a beep, there was a quick reply from the other side.
It's an emoji of a dumpling, with a cute grin.
Lu Xiaoyuan couldn't help being taken aback.
This seems to be his usual expression.
Moreover, it was the first time for him to see Yu Jing's emoji.
Probably sent it by mistake, the emoji was quickly withdrawn. Followed by another sentence.
[I'm here too. You rest early, see you another day]
This is already the conclusion. Lu Xiaoyuan thought he could talk about some more topics.
But yes, after a busy day at work and going to a concert, I'm already tired.
Lu Xiaoyuan put down his phone and lay down on the bed.
The familiar ceiling was reflected in his eyes.
Normally, when chatting, the other person would take the initiative to end the topic, and he would breathe a sigh of relief. Because you don't have to rack your brains to figure out how to reply.
This is the first time have had an unfinished idea.
Maybe because of the matter of the second brother, feel a little depressed.
He didn't want his family to worry, so he couldn't tell his elder brother.
Only Yu Jing was the person he was most familiar with.
He might be looking for some advice.
The other party is better than him in dealing with people and things. He wondered if he was right in wanting his second brother to come home.
Or is it better not to force it and let nature take its course?
The mind is full of such things. Lu Xiaoyuan's eyelids gradually darkened.
the next day.
Since my father had to check during the day, the visit was arranged in the afternoon.
When Lu Xiaoyuan was still in the company, he received a call from his father, who told him to come over.
"I'm ready for Xiaoyuan."
Lu Xiaoyuan responded with a smile. But he didn't quite understand what his father was going to prepare as the party to be visited.
Before leaving, Lu Xiaoyuan specially asked Secretary Xu to buy flowers and fruits.
Although the eldest brother said that he didn't need it, but after all, it was a celebration of the success of the operation, so Lu Xiaoyuan still wanted to bring some things there.
everything's ready.
Lu Xiaoyuan got into the car with his eldest brother.
The car left the company and drove into the torrent of traffic.
Holding the bouquet in his arms, Lu Xiaoyuan still couldn't help turning his head.
Lu Ling: "What are you looking at?"
Lu Xiaoyuan shook his head.
The second brother did not come to the company today.
Although it was expected, it was still a bit disappointing.
At this time, there was a temperature on the back of the hand.
Lu Xiaoyuan raised his eyes and saw that it was his elder brother holding his hand.
Meeting those quiet eyes, Lu Xiaoyuan suddenly calmed down a little, and he pursed his lips tightly.
About to arrive at the destination.
At this time, Lu Xiao saw a familiar figure standing at the gate of the hospital from afar.
The eye-catching giant locomotive was parked beside him, half leaning on it with folded arms.
Described as being incompatible with the hospital, passers-by unconsciously bypassed the road.
Second brother?
Lu Xiaoyuan couldn't believe it, first he rubbed his eyes.
Then he stood up excitedly, but was restrained by the seat belt and couldn't move.
He rolled down the window, looking forward to see through. Looking at that posture, it seems that he will jump out of the window in the next second.
Lu Ling signaled the driver to stop.
After coming to a complete stop, Lu Xiaoyuan quickly unfastened his seat belt.
He ran forward.
Because the rush was too fast, a head hammer almost hit the second brother's chest, and he was caught in time.
Lu Yuzhi supported the man: "What are you doing in such a hurry, aren't you afraid of falling?"
"I, that, you..."
Lu Xiaoyuan was still holding the bouquet in his hand, talking incoherently.
He never expected that the second brother would come directly to the hospital.
Seeing that his younger brother was too anxious to speak, Lu Yuzhi had a smile in his eyes.
"Okay, take it easy."
Lu Xiaoyuan took a deep breath and finally stabilized himself.
Not far away came the sound of footsteps.
Lu Yuzhi looked over and saw that it was Lu Ling.
The other party's performance was flat: "You are here."
Lu Yuzhi: "Why, you are not welcome?"
Faced with this provocative tone, the corners of Lu Ling's mouth softened a little, and he raised his foot and approached.
"go in."
Lu Yuzhi never liked being ordered, so he clicked his tongue.
Looking at younger brother again, was still very happy to look at him.
Lu Yuzhi stretched out his hand, and the other party consciously pulled him up.
"Okay, brother,"
Lu Xiaoyuan hugged the flower in one hand and his second brother's arm in the other, looking more nervous than the person involved.
"Let's go!"
Go through the outdoors and walk into the hospital building. Then take the elevator to the floor where the father's ward is located.
Knowing that they were coming, the door was not closed, only ajar.
Lu Ling opened the door first and went in.
Soon, a familiar male voice came from inside.
"A Ling, why is it only you and Xiao Yuan?"
Lu Ling: "Outside."
Lu Xiaoyuan swallowed, grabbed his second brother and planned to go in. took a few steps but couldn't move.
He couldn't help but raise his eyes.
Lu Yuzhi's eyes were extremely heavy, and even his body was more tense than usual.
Second brother...
Lu Xiaoyuan couldn't help but let go of his hand.
Sensing the heat leaving his body, Lu Yuzhi looked over. Then there was a tap on the arm.
The younger brother squeezed a smile at him, as if saying it was okay.
Lu Yuzhi: "..."
Lu Xiaoyuan didn't intend to force it.
The other party can take the initiative to come here, which is already very powerful.
Even if they fail to take the last step today, they still have time.
"Xiaoyuan, what are you doing outside, come in quickly."
His father was still calling him inside, but Lu Xiaoyuan pointed his finger, indicating that he was going in first.
If he delays outside, his father will definitely find it strange.
"immediately!"
Lu Xiaoyuan responded and raised his feet into the ward.
Xu had just performed surgery the day before, and Lu Zhiguo's face was slightly pale. At this time, he was lying on the bed, and when he saw him enter the house, he immediately started his arms.
"Xiao Yuan-"
This simple movement pulled the wound and took a breath.
"Dad," Lu Xiaoyuan put down the bouquet, "Don't move around."
"It hurts, it hurts."
Lu Zhiguo covered his chest, "You come here to help your father."
Lu Xiaoyuan just wanted to approach, but was pulled by the big brother.
Lu Ling indifferent: "The nurse bell next to it."
Lu Zhiguo: ...
He put down his hand: "Aling, you are so indifferent."
"The doctor said that the surgery was very successful, and only needed to recuperate." Lu Ling said, "Don't toss blindly."
All right.
Lu Zhiguo diverted the topic: "Xiao Yuan, close the door. Let's chat well."
Lu Xiaoyuan did not move.
Lu Zhiguo's doubt: "Xiao Yuan?"
"Ah ... good."
The second brother is still outside. It's not appropriate to close the door.
Lu Xiaoyuan walked towards the door.
"Well!"
The next second, the door of the door was buckled.
Lu Xiaoyuan lived.
Lu Zhiguo was lying on the bed, and he couldn't see what happened from his perspective. It's just strange.
There was no wind, but the door was closed by itself.
He was about to laugh at this weird image, and suddenly he heard a footsteps, slowly walking close.
A figure came out of the back of the wall and copied his pockets with both hands.
Earrings reflect incandescent lights, eyes ahead. It was not until the standing, and the amber pupil seemed to shift left.
"... dead old man."
Then the man pulled the corner of his mouth.
"Still alive?"
