know the enemy

Lu Jia thought that Bai Yi would not come back for a while after this time.

But when he went to Bai's house the next evening, Bai Yi was already sitting on the sofa watching TV, he clearly saw Lu Jia coming in but didn't say hello.

It's kind of funny, and it's not like a teenager, what the hell is going on.

Lu Jialian glanced at Bai Yi several times, and walked into the bathroom before he realized it.

When he came out of the bathroom, he found that there was a lot of space on the sofa, so Bai Yi nestled in the corner and concentrated on watching TV.That place seemed to be specially reserved for him, and he didn't want him to find out.

Lu Jia sat over, and Bai Yi immediately moved, making some meaningless movements.

Neither of them spoke, and remained in a stalemate until dinner was served.

It was much quieter at the dinner table today, and there was no gossip.When the meal was almost finished, Mother Bai still couldn't help asking: "Lu Jia, your partner..." Halfway through speaking, Father Bai patted her, and she immediately stopped talking and didn't ask any more.

Luke must have heard but said nothing.

Bai Yi never paid attention to these things before, but today he paid special attention to them.

After dinner, Lu Jia and Father Bai were watching TV in the living room, and Bai Yi quietly moved to the kitchen.

"Why?" Bai Mu stopped her hands and glanced at him, "Don't get in the way here."

"Why am I in the way?" Bai Yi replied, thinking that the purpose of coming here was not for this, so he prepared for a few seconds to tell Bai Mu, "I'm in love."

"What?" Mother Bai raised her volume a little.

"Hey, keep your voice down." Bai Yi hurriedly made a "shh" gesture.

"Why keep your voice down?" Mother Bai lowered her volume, "Don't let your dad hear it?"

"Not without."

Bai Mu looked at him suspiciously: "What is it, do you have any photos? Show me. I can warn you, if you continue to behave like before, I will ask your father to clean you up."

"...What was I like before?" Bai Yi suddenly felt his throat dry, and said half-jokingly, "You asked me for a photo as soon as you came up, why didn't you ask Lu Jia?"

Bai Mu rolled his eyes at him: "You treat yourself as your elder brother as unprincipled as you?"

"Then you're very worried about him." Bai Yi lowered his head, feeling that he couldn't make it up anymore, "Oh, I'm just joking, I don't have a girlfriend, I'm just kidding you."

Mother Bai hit him several times, but she still didn't believe it, so she pulled her over and asked, "Is there any?"

"No." Bai Yi said, "Why don't I tell you if I have it?"

Mother Bai beat him several times.

Bai Yi came out of the kitchen, just in time to meet Lu Jiaxun's gaze, dodged in a panic, and turned into the toilet.

Suddenly afraid to face Luke, he never noticed those small differences.Has Luke always understood that he has lived soberly for so many years?

When Lu Jia went back, Mu Wenran hadn't arrived home. Recently, Mu Wenran came back later and later.

Luke was waiting for someone in the living room, and fell asleep while waiting.Waking up from the cold in the early hours of the morning, I dragged myself into the bedroom to make a bed and prepared to go to bed. Just as I lifted the corner of the quilt, the doorbell rang.

Mu Wenran was drunk and was driven back by a friend.

Ye Yulou helped carry the man into the bedroom, pointed outside and said, "There are still people waiting downstairs, I didn't let them come up."

"Thank you." Lu Jia asked, "Drink some water before leaving?"

Ye Yulou shook his head, panted and leaned against the door to relax.

He was a little confused about whether he should tell Lu Jia about Mu Wenran's recent hardships and his father's cruelty.He knew that after saying this, Mu Wenran knew that it might kill him.

He looked back at Lu Jia, and Lu Jia was also looking at him, his eyes were as clear as ever, which made him a little unbearable.He thought it better not to say it, since Mu Wenran didn't say it and built a fairy tale for Lu Jia, why should he break it.

After Ye Yulou left, Lu Jia closed the door, and was not surprised to see that the person who was lying on the bed just now had sat up, took a glass of water and handed it to Mu Wenran.

Mu Wenran raised his eyes: "If you don't pretend to be drunk, you won't be able to come back tonight."

Lu Jia tilted his head: "But you don't make trouble when you drink too much, right? Just sleep, be good."

Mu Wenran laughed: "Be good?"

Luke immediately shook his head: "No."

"Not what?" Mu Wenran put down the water glass.

Lu Jia changed the subject: "You've been very busy recently."

Mu Wenran was given a lot of alcohol, and he calmed down and said, "Yes."

"Your father doesn't mean anything." Lu Jia sat aside and patted Mu Wenran on the back, "You are too miserable, aren't you?"

"..."

"Are you okay? Why don't you talk?"

"Why am I miserable?"

Luke should have said, "Then it's all like this, isn't it miserable?"

It's pretty miserable.

But why did the words come out of Luke's mouth so wrongly?

Mu Wenran held Lu Jia down, and Lu Jia immediately became vigilant: "What are you doing? You want to shoot me again? What am I doing again?" His tone was extremely aggrieved, making it impossible to do anything.

Mu Wenran pressed him into his arms and rubbed his hair.

With his messy hair on his head, Lu Jia asked quite worriedly, "Are you under too much pressure and feeling a bit out of spirit?"

"……No."

"That's good." Then he patted Mu Wenran on the shoulder, "It will be fine. Don't think about things, if you don't sleep in the middle of the night, you will become ugly."

Mu Wenran couldn't tell which of his sentences were jokes and which ones were serious.The only thing that was certain was that Luke cared about him in his own way.

Ye Yulou's entanglement was completely unnecessary.

Lu Jia knew everything, it was Mu Wenran who told him, and told him everything without reservation.

This is an agreement the two of them made a long time ago.

Mu Wenran always remembered.

After all these years, the habit has been carved into the bone.

This week, Lu Jia met Feng Yucen in the supermarket for the third time.Luke was surprised to learn that she had moved nearby.

I paid the bill together and walked out of the supermarket, only to find that it was raining outside.

The two had to stand at the door and wait for the rain to stop.

"It was still sunny just now."

Lu Jia could run back, but he still waited with Feng Yucen.

Feng Yucen was a little emotional: "If this was high school, you would have disappeared by yourself."

"Ah." Lu Jia thought about it for a while, and it might be true. To be honest, "The main reason is that there are people at home, and they will be accused when they go back in the rain."

"Hey... Can you talk?" Feng Yucen joked.

Lu Jia touched his nose: "Then retract, retract what you just said."

"Can it still be like this?" Feng Yucen smiled.

The rain was dripping down the eaves, and Luke was standing too far outside, and the rain splashed and splashed on his shoes.The phone rang, Feng Yucen watched him answer the phone, she guessed that the person on the phone wanted to pick up Lu Jia, Lu Jia replied: "No, I'll go back when the rain is less, I have to run."

After hanging up the phone, Feng Yucen kept looking at Lu Jia, who smiled at her.

"Is it Mu Wenran?" Feng Yucen asked, "Is he also the person in the family?"

This is not the third time we have met.Since moving to the neighborhood, she has been out shopping at this time of day every day.

It seems that it always rains in this season. She has seen two people sharing an umbrella—Lu Jia is carrying something, and Mu Wenran is holding an umbrella. After a while, they change the order, as if they are playing a game, and the participants never get tired of it.

No matter how big the umbrella was, it couldn't cover the two of them. Fortunately, the rain was light. She saw Lu Jia leaving Mu Wenran and running away alone. She was so naive, and looked back with a smile in the rain; Putting on the umbrella and chasing after him, he hugged Lu Jia's shoulder, forced the umbrella to Lu Jia and ran away.

Feng Yucen felt that he should be silent and acted as if he hadn't seen anything.But seeing Lu Jia today, and it was raining again today, she couldn't help but think about the scene of that day.

"Are you living with him now?"

Lu Jia said "yes" and looked at her with teary eyes, acknowledging that they were together so frankly.

Feng Yucen smiled lightly, and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

"Hey, I thought you were a couple before." She said and slapped Lu Jia, "Did I guess it?"

I couldn't figure out why I was silent at that time, if she couldn't do anything, just look at the happiness in front of her.

Luke laughed and stepped into the rain again.

Feng Yucen didn't stop, the rain was already light, she said softly, "Be happy."

Lu Jia seemed to hear it but didn't seem to hear it, and looked back at her.

As if smiling is contagious, Feng Yucen also laughed.
