Solitary

Chapter 17-

Lin Shu lay on the sofa all night. When she woke up in the morning, her eyes were swollen and painful. When she looked in the mirror, the whites of her eyes were red and her eyelids were bulging. She shed too many tears last night.He went into the room to see Li Hua, but she was not there.He thought she was in the bathroom and called her, "Em?"

No response.He was a little nervous, and carefully pushed open the door of the bathroom, not even daring to glance at it, and slowly raised his head, the bathroom was empty, and the picture he imagined did not appear.He breathed a sigh of relief, but felt ridiculous.

He called Li Hua, and she answered quickly, announcing aggressively: "I'm going to Quanzhou to settle accounts with that vixen, and that vixen is from Quanzhou!"

Yes, how could she be defeated so easily?How could she admit defeat so easily?In her life, she can only win, not lose.

"It's already at this point, are you still at home? Don't think you skip class because I'm not here! I'll ask the teacher on the phone." Even at such a time, Li Hua was still able to spare part of his mind to take care of him.

"Well, I'll be leaving soon." He replied wearily.

Li Hua lowered his tone: "Lin Shu, you have to fight for me! This family, I can only rely on you, you know?"

She is unwilling to admit defeat, but she is also afraid.Fear is unreliable, and fear has a bleak evening.

"Well, I'm going to class," he said.

"You, be careful too. My dad is serious this time." He reminded her that he never forgot to win back a man who was determined to leave.

Li Hua hung up the phone first, and he dawdled for a long time before going to class.

On the podium, the bald teacher was spitting all over the place, half of the ten students were distracted.Zhao Hai, next to Lin Shu, draws pictures in the book, all of them are villains. He draws a lot and arranges the plot.

During the break, Zhao Hai handed the painting to Lin Shu: "I drew the plot in Ji Qing's novel."

Lin Shu knew the characters and stories in the novel at a glance. Zhao Hai drew very well and changed some dialogues, which is very interesting.He praised Zhao Hai for his talent, and Zhao Hai sighed: "So what if you are talented, why don't you just listen to this boring class here!"

Lin Shu smiled wryly, everyone was in the same situation.He took a picture of the painting and sent it to He Jiqing.

He Jiqing asked: "Did you draw it?"

He said no, but was touched, and immediately added it to the wish list, drawing for He Jiqing.

"The students who attended the class together drew the drawing by the reader who liked you that I mentioned yesterday." He told He Jiqing.

He Jiqing sent a smiling face: "Thank him for helping me."

"No." Lin Shu refused.

"Why not?"

"He won't believe it, he insists that you are uglier than Huang Bo!"

Lin Shu returned a helpless expression to him.

In the studio in Shanghai, He Jiqing laughed while holding his mobile phone. Several screenwriters sitting opposite him stopped their work and looked at him in surprise.

Rarely had they seen him laugh so openly.He Jiqing, who laughed out loud, had a special look on his face.Someone secretly filmed.

Everyone asked him: "What is so happy?"

He Jiqing raised the corner of his mouth: "Secret."

After the break, the bald teacher resumed his lecture.

Zhao Hai continued to draw, he drew plots of novels.Lin Shu also started to draw. He drew He Jiqing in his mind, smiling, frowning, side profile, front face, full body, half naked.They were all sketches, with a few strokes, he outlined He Jiqing who had long been engraved deep in his memory, affectionate, charming, and personable.

His He Jiqing is a great talent and a heartthrob.

Zhao Hai saw that he was also painting, so he had to ask to see it after class.He showed him, Zhao Hai repeatedly sighed: "You draw really well!"

He told him that he had studied painting and was a candidate for fine arts.

Zhao Hai expressed envy: "I also wanted to learn to draw when I was young, but my father said that there is no way out for learning this."

Lin Shu doesn't understand why so many parents love to control their children's lives.His parents are like this, Zhao Hai's parents are the same, most of the ten students in this class are like this.They keep saying that it is for the good of their children, but in fact they are more or less hiding selfishness.

Parents who are truly good for their children will not influence their lives in this way.

After the training course was over, Lin Shu returned to the apartment, but Li Hua hadn't come back yet.He texted her and asked when she would be back.She didn't reply.

He called Lin Jian and asked, "Have you seen E-Mu?"

Lin Jian almost shouted: "She's crazy, she's really crazy!"

Lin Shu knew that Li Hua must have done something too much.Since she looked for it, she would definitely not return without success.

"Dad, I know you have no relationship with my mother. But we have lived together for so many years. No matter how much she goes too far, I don't want you to hurt her like yesterday. "

One day, a couple of hundred days of kindness, even if they are strangers, they can't kill them all.Lin Shu was worried that Li Hua had done too much, and Lin Jian would beat her.He has a new woman to protect, and he is no longer that pissed off husband who will endure.

"I support your divorce. That's what I thought before." Lin Shu had imagined many times that he could open up and chat with his father.Unexpectedly, the first time I opened my heart, I actually talked about this.

"Your marriage has no love. You don't love your mother, and your mother doesn't love you. I know. You have a lot of helplessness when you are together, especially after giving birth to me. I know that both you and your mother have suffered a lot. bitter."

"Lin Shu—" Lin Jian called his name, but didn't know what to say.

"In the end, bear with her one more time. It's just this time. Maybe it'll be all right if she figured it out."

When Li Hua will figure it out, and whether he can figure it out, Lin Shu has no idea.The same goes for Lin Jian.But after all, they were family members who had lived under the same roof for so many years, and both of them wanted to give her time.

"You should also do well, prepare well for the civil service exam. I'll see if I can help you find a relationship." Although there is only loathing and resentment towards Li Hua, Lin Jian is still a father to his only son. .Like Li Hua, he wants to help him pave the way for the future.

"Yeah." Lin Shu didn't want to start this topic.

After talking with Lin Jian, Lin Shu sent a video chat to He Jiqing.

He Jiqing pressed the button to refuse."I'm in a meeting," he tweeted.

Lin Shu sat on the sofa with his mobile phone in his arms and waited for him. He looked at the buildings in the distance outside the window, one after another, tall and short, old and new, who lived in them, and what kind of life they had. , Is there anyone like him, whose family is broken, whose life is controlled by his parents, and who has a love that is destined to have no good ending.

When He Jiqing's video invitation came, Lin Shu had already fallen asleep on the sofa.He pressed the connection in a daze, and the person he was thinking about day and night appeared on the screen of the mobile phone, with long hair combed meticulously behind his head, without the gold-rimmed glasses he usually wears on the bridge of his nose, and wearing a light-colored suit , wearing a tie of the same color and a dark woolen coat outside.He's in a coffee shop with a coffee bar in the background and uniformed waiters making coffee.

"You look good today." I don't know how many people have fascinated me and made people jealous.

"Are you sleeping?" He Jiqing saw Lin Shu on the phone, his eyes were sleepy and his hair was messed up.

"Yeah." Lin Shu rubbed his eyes.

"Why are you dressed so formally?"

"When I met a foreign production team, it was the first time we met, so I had to be special." He Jiqing smiled softly.

"How are your parents?"

"My mother went to find my father's woman." Lin Shu was very tired.He Jiqing was very distressed.

"I don't want to talk about them." Lin Shu said.

"Then don't talk about it." He Jiqing followed him.

"I drew you in class today!" Lin Shu took out a notebook from his schoolbag and held it up for He Jiqing to read.He drew many pages.Every time he turned a page, He Jiqing would boast: "It's beautiful!"

When he finished flipping through, He Jiqing said: "You draw very well, it seems that you were the one who was humble before."

Lin Shu always said that his drawings are average, but this group of sketches has smooth lines and concise structure, especially the expression of the eyes, which is very vivid.

"That's because it's not good to paint you, but to paint others." Lin Shu didn't love painting very much.If you don't love something, you can't do it to the extreme.As for talent, he firmly believed that he had no such thing.

"You always underestimate yourself." He Jiqing was dissatisfied with his self-evaluation.

"It's better than being arrogant!" Lin Shu sighed.

"You're good at drawing. Have you ever thought about drawing illustrations?" He Jiqing remembered what Jiang Chang said before, that Lin Shu was looking for a job.He wanted to help him.

"If I can't do well, forget it." This topic started to become dangerous, and Lin Shu raised his vigilance.He took the initiative to ask: "How is your script?"

He changed the topic, He Jiqing thought that he just didn't have confidence in himself.

"It's going well, and the draft can be finalized a year ago."

"That's really great. Can I see your movie next year?" Lin Shu was happy for him.

"Well, around the end of the year, or the year after next." He Jiqing looked at Lin Shu's happy smiling face on the screen, and laughed along with him.

"I'm almost finished reading your book." Lin Shu told him.

"So fast?" He Jiqing was surprised.

"I won't write any more book reviews!" He hurriedly announced.

"I won't laugh at you again." After laughing at Lin Shu last time, He Jiqing regretted it for a long time.

"Don't laugh and don't write." Lin Shu insisted, his writing style is really messed up, and it has no meaning except to make people laugh.

"I was wrong last time." He Jiqing pitifully admitted his mistake.

"I don't write book reviews, but I can tell you what I think."

"Okay, tell me now." He Jiqing smiled instantly.

"I don't want to tell you on the phone." What he wanted to talk about was not the book's good or bad, nor did he want to talk about his feelings about the characters and the plot, he just wanted to confirm with him face to face, those clues hidden in the book , is not his avatar.

"Then where are you going to talk?" He Jiqing's tone was much more ambiguous.

"I won't tell you!" Lin Shu knew what he was thinking, and couldn't help but blush.

"Well, I know, you want to surprise me." He Jiqing said deliberately.

Lin Shu pouted: "It's good that you know."

"Lin Shu—" He Jiqing called him softly.

"Hmm—" he lazily replied.

"I really want to kiss you!" After He Jiqing finished speaking, he found himself hardened.

The lust in his eyes was so strong that Lin Shu didn't dare to look at him, blushing and said, "My mother is coming back!" He pressed the end button.

He Jiqing sighed into the phone, his boy is always so shy.He sent him a crying emoji, and Lin Shu quickly replied with a sweaty emoji.He sent another aggrieved expression, and he sent back a comforting expression.He sent an emoji of desire and dissatisfaction, but Lin Shu stopped replying.

He Jiqing was sitting in the coffee shop, holding his mobile phone and laughing nonstop.

A pair of girls sitting at the table diagonally across from him had already picked up their mobile phones to secretly take pictures of him.

The male clerk who brought him coffee couldn't help but blush when he saw his smile, and asked the female clerk after returning to the bar: "Do you know him? Is he a celebrity?"

The shop assistant looked at He Jiqing and shook her head: "I don't know which star it is, maybe it's a new one."

The two secretly took photos and sent them to Moments with the caption: "Does anyone know which male star this is?"

And because of He Jiqing's expression of dissatisfaction with desire, Lin Shu ran to the bathroom and solved his desire with his hands.Finally, he called out He Jiqing's name.
