After rebirth, I want to stay away from bamboo horses

"Xiao Yu, when did you return to China? Why didn't you tell me?" Zhen Xin asked.

"It's been two days since I came back. Aunt Xin said that you have been busy preparing for the interview recently. I dare not send you a message for fear of disturbing your study and affecting your performance." Lu Mingyu pouted and said aggrievedly.

"It's okay. I was too happy to see you back, so why bother? I finished the interview yesterday, and when I packed up my things this morning, I found Xiaobei's invitation. Did you also come back specially to attend his wedding banquet?" Zhen Xin packed his suitcase and walked home, with Lu Mingyu following him.

Lu Mingyu put away his smile and said "hmm" softly.

Zhen Xin saw that the door to her home was closed and remembered that her parents had gone out to perform, so she took out the key and opened the door: "Come in and sit for a while, I will pour you tea."

"Don't bother me. I have to keep my stomach open for dinner soon. You will go too, right?" Lu Mingyu asked.

"Ah? Where are you going?" Zhen Xin wondered.

"Brother Bei's bachelor party, didn't you read the group messages?"

"Oh, my group messages have been blocked. I've been busy lately and haven't had time to read." Zhen Xin felt a little embarrassed and leaned her suitcase against the wall next to the shoe cabinet, preparing to pack her luggage after Lu Mingyu left.

"No wonder I @you in the group, but I haven't seen your reply. If you don't even look at WeChat, what will your instructor do if he finds you?"

"We have a short number on the campus network. My tutor usually calls me or sends emails to communicate." Zhen Xin said that sometimes it is normal to receive emails from the tutor at one or two o'clock in the middle of the night.

"As expected, you are doing research. You are full of bookishness now. It's so simple and wonderful!" Lu Mingyu looked Zhen Xin up and down and said with a smile.

"Are you complimenting me? Or are you laughing at my slovenliness?" Zhen Xin remembered that she had hurriedly washed her hair before going out, and then directly packed her luggage to catch the high-speed train. The journey was dusty, and she must be very embarrassed now.

"Of course I'm complimenting you. You are already very good-looking and have fair skin. You don't need to do anything to clean it up, you are already very good-looking. Especially now that you have a bit more bookishness about you, standing among our group of dandies who are eating, drinking and having fun, you look like It looks very special and different.”

Zhen Xin took two bottles of juice from the refrigerator, put them on the coffee table, and then sat on the sofa next to Lu Mingyu.

"Don't say that. You and Xiaobei are not bad at studying. How can you say that you are a playboy who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun? You are belittling yourselves. You are obviously very good!"

"Now we talk about project investment and stock options. Talking about money every day is boring. We are not as good as you, who have the ideal to save lives and heal the wounded."

"Let's stop saying these polite words!" Zhen Xin shook her head helplessly, "I remember you said before that you wanted to be a writer when you grow up. Xiaobei seemed to have said that you wanted to be a painter. I really didn't expect you two. Now half of our peers have become heirs to the family business."

"I must be forced by circumstances. I am an only child. My father is not in good health recently. I don't like it and there is nothing I can do about it. Such a big family business cannot fail in my generation."

Zhen Xin found that the topic was a bit heavy and quickly changed the topic: "Let's not talk about this anymore. Is that the boyfriend you had when you were studying abroad? How are you and your boyfriend getting along?"

In his previous life, Lu Mingyu introduced him in front of everyone as the boyfriend he met when he was studying abroad. If Zhen Xin remembered correctly, it seemed to be the handsome guy just now.

Lu Mingyu looked at Zhen Xin strangely: "Xin Xin, how did you know?"

"Ah? What?" Zhen Xin was stunned. Did she say something wrong? Why does Lu Mingyu look like this?

"I haven't told anyone that I like boys, Xin Xin, how did you tell?"

"I just made a wild guess." Zhen Xin was embarrassed. It's not good to remember too many things, as it can easily lead to false accusations.

"As expected of a future doctoral student, with a sharp eye!" Lu Mingyu smiled, "But to tell you the truth, James is not my boyfriend yet. He has confessed to me, but I haven't agreed yet."

"Ah? Is that so? Isn't he afraid that you won't go back after you get home, so he chased you here?"

"Maybe, after all, he knows that I have someone I like in China."

"You have someone you like in China, who is it? Do I know him?" Zhen Xin was curious and had never heard Lu Mingyu mention it before.

"Hey, Xin Xin, why are you so gossipy?" Lu Mingyu said coquettishly.

"I'm really curious. Since you have someone you like in China, why did you suddenly want to study abroad? Did you break up with the person you liked?"

"No, he and I have never been together, so how can we break up."

"I remember when Qin Shuo went to study abroad, you complained for a long time, saying that there was no good food abroad, and why he couldn't think of going to study abroad. But a year later, you also left. I was busy at that time I didn't even have time to ask you during the postgraduate entrance examination. So, why did you leave?"

Lu Mingyu sighed softly: "Well, I suddenly discovered one day that I seemed to like a boy. Since I realized this, the intimate physical contact with him in the past has suddenly changed in my opinion.

He was very kind to me, considerate and caring, which made me a little confused as to whether it was friendship or love, which was quite painful.

For this reason, I even went to my grandma’s house to stay for several days, but I couldn’t help but miss him.

I wanted to confess my love for a while, but I was afraid that the boy would think I was a pervert and would not be friends with me in the future, so I held back.

Thinking about it now, it's a good thing I held back at that time.

Because I later discovered that the boy liked girls and was about to get married. "

Getting married soon? A boy who is very gentle and considerate to him?

Zhen Xin thought about it, looked at Lu Mingyu suspiciously, and suddenly asked: "Wait a minute, Xiaoyu, the one you like is not tomorrow's groom, right?"

Lu Mingyu choked, as if he had said too much and spilled the beans. He quickly covered Zhen Xin's mouth: "Shh, Xin Xin, you can't talk nonsense like this. It won't be good for others to hear."

Zhen Xin noticed that Lu Mingyu's nervous face was red, and it looked abnormal. He took away Lu Mingyu's hand and held it in his hand: "So, is it what I thought?"

"I..." Lu Mingyu lowered his head and nodded silently.

Zhen Xin remembered that in her previous life, after Zhang Beining's wedding dinner, she and her wife went to Phuket for their honeymoon. That night, Lu Mingyu went to a bar and drank until he had stomach bleeding and almost ended up in the ICU.

"Why are you still here to attend his wedding? Seeing him marry another woman and vowing to be together, aren't you looking for abuse?" Zhen Xin asked distressedly. At Zhang Beining's wedding in the previous life, he didn't understand the sadness and pain in Lu Mingyu's eyes. Where did it come from? This time, he understood.
