In your lifetime, stay safe

Xu Xi is very grateful to his boss. After all, he has been a miner for so long. When he returned to work, he not only didn't blame him, but even cared about his body.Xu Xi has no other way to repay, but can only work harder, so as to repay the boss's appreciation. It's just that Lu Haosheng is poor. Because of Xu Xi's hard work, he often leaves work very late. It became a bubble.I have eaten takeaway for a long time, and I really don't know how long I will have to eat takeaway.

But there is also good news. Not long after Xu Xi was discharged from the hospital, Lu Haosheng received a call from Mr. Qin, knowing that those people had been dealt with, Lu Haosheng thanked him, and then hung up the phone. People can be regarded as their due retribution. If Mr. Qin takes action, I am afraid that the method will not be much gentler than his own. After all, Mr. Qin is eager to establish his prestige, so the person sent here is most suitable for killing chickens and monkeys.

Lu Haosheng also heard about the fate of those people later, but he just felt embarrassed. After all, he was either disabled or sent to prison, and his life was ruined.As for Xu Xi's cousin, Lu Haosheng heard that when he left with Xu Xi in his arms, Sheng Qing naturally would not let him go, as if he was raped by someone under him, and finally became insane and got into a car accident. I'm going to lie in bed for the rest of my life, but that's good, because I don't have to do it myself, and it's cheaper for him.

But I also owe Qin Lao a big favor, which is not easy to repay.

Xu Xi got off work early on purpose today. The wound on his head is almost healed, and the gauze has been removed, but there are still faint marks, but Xu Xi doesn't think there is anything. The existence of this scar is to remind himself not to go there again. I am nostalgic for those so-called family ties, and I have to take back the things my parents left me that they took away from me, and I must not make them cheap.

It's just that he can't get it back in a hurry. Not only do he have no money now, but he also doesn't know the relevant laws very well. The most important thing now is to find a lawyer, but Xu Xi is not very clear about these.Lu Haosheng should have such a relationship, so Xu Xi felt that it would be much easier to ask him, but he had to be sincere when asking for help, and Lu Haosheng helped him so much when he was hospitalized before, so he always had to thank them.So Xu Xi planned to cook a sumptuous dinner tonight, as a way of thanking Lu Haosheng for his help for so long, and it would be easier to ask for help only after coaxing him well.

As soon as Lu Haosheng got home, he smelled the fragrance. He took off his suit jacket and saw Xu Xi busy in the kitchen. He wondered if he was going to eat takeaway again tonight. It seemed unnecessary tonight.

"You're back, go take a shower first, you'll be fine soon." Xu Xi greeted Lu Haosheng, and then continued to cook the fish in his hand.

Now that Xu Xi has said so, why should I be polite, I feel very tired after working all day.Lu Haosheng went to the bathroom to take a shower, then changed his clothes, and then walked out slowly, anyway, he was not in a hurry.

"The last soup, I'm done." Xu Xi brought out the ribs soup that was ready, and the dishes were ready, so the boss could be invited to the table.

"It's so rich, it's not like I have something to ask for." Lu Haosheng never believed that there was a free lunch in the world, and Xu Xi still looked at him with such earnest eyes, so there must be something tricky.

"How is that possible? I just feel that you've worked so hard recently, so that's why." Isn't it so obvious, is it possible that I have written all the words I want to say on my face, Xu Xi thought so.

"If you don't say it, don't blame me. I will ignore what you say later." Lu Haosheng smelled the braised fish in front of him, it was quite fragrant.

"Well, there is indeed a small matter I would like to ask you to help with." Xu Xi said shyly, as expected, compared to an old stick like Lu Haosheng, he was still too immature.

"I knew it, tell me, what's the matter."

"Do you have any lawyers you know well?"

"Why do you ask this? Do you have any grievances?" Lu Haosheng looked at him curiously. After all, it is indeed a bit abnormal for Xu Xi to find a lawyer.

"It's not a grievance, it's just a little thing."

"Forget it. If you don't tell me, I won't ask. I have a business card of a lawyer I know in my study. You can go to him. He is my friend. I will give it to you later."

"Thank you." Xu Xi said with a smile. After all, the lawyer Lu Haosheng knew made it much more convenient for him, so he didn't have to bother to look for it everywhere. Isn't this opportunistic?

"You don't need to thank me, but you can tell me what you can't solve. You don't have to force yourself." After getting along for so long, Lu Haosheng also knows Xu Xi's character, and he endures everything silently by himself. It's hard to imagine that his thin shoulders have endured so many things, but it's just that he doesn't say anything, and it's hard for him to ask.After all, their current relationship is just friends who get along very well, and it is not good to go too far, and it is easy to create rifts.

"Come on, eat vegetables, you work so hard every day, eat more." Now that he got what he wanted, Xu Xi naturally had to have a better attitude, and picked a lot of vegetables for Lu Haosheng's bowl until the bowl was stuffed. Don't stop until you can't stop.

The meal ended perfectly under Xu Xi's hospitality and Lu Haosheng's half-push and half-push. In the end, Lu Haosheng felt that he had eaten a lot. After eating, he ran on the treadmill for a while before he didn't feel bloated. It seems In the future, even if the food is delicious, you can't eat too much.

Unlike Lu Haosheng, Xu Xi has always felt uneasy after taking that lawyer's business card. By doing so, he is undoubtedly going to war with his relatives head-on, but in order to get back what belongs to him, even if he has to fight against the whole world The enemy doesn't care about himself, anyway, they have never cared about themselves. To them, he is just a dispensable person, and maybe even in their hearts, he is just a superfluous burden. Otherwise, how could he? Be what you are now.

On the second day, Xu Xi deliberately took half a day off and came to the law firm where this lawyer works.

The lawyer Lu Haosheng introduced was Shao Fengmian. I heard that he is only 28 years old, and he is already a lawyer in his own right, and has his own law firm.In the large and small cases he has handled, he has never lost a case. Of course, his legal fees have also risen accordingly.This lawyer is good at criminal litigation and civil litigation, so I have a lot of confidence in finding him.When Xu Xi came here, he searched for this lawyer on the Internet. It seemed that what he had said to Lu Haosheng was true. This lawyer was young and promising, and even some senior and veteran lawyers were defeated by him. Moreover, Lu Haosheng and this lawyer There are many cooperations, so there is Lu Haosheng's relationship, the lawyer's fee may be less, after all, I am poor and white now, and I can save a little bit.

Xu Xi gave himself a lot of confidence before walking in slowly, and soon someone came to greet him. Xu Xi said that he had made an appointment in advance, and waited outside for a while before being taken into the reception room by the receptionist. I met this young and promising lawyer Shao.

"Please sit down. Haosheng has already told me in advance. If you have anything to do, you can tell me directly. I will never refuse to help you." Shao Fengmian said generously. After all, he and Lu Haosheng had many business contacts. Before Lu Haosheng called and told him to take good care of this Mr. Xu, it seems that this person in front of him is very important.

"Thank you." Xu Xi sat down awkwardly. After all, it was his first time looking for a lawyer, and he didn't understand many legal matters very well. He was so nervous that he didn't even know where to put his hands.

"Drink water, please." Shao Fengmian could see Xu Xi's nervousness, so he played some light music to ease the awkward atmosphere.

After he was no longer so nervous, Xu Xi slowly told Shao Fengmian the reason for his visit today. After speaking, he still wondered if he had missed something, and tried to clarify the matter.

"Okay, I probably understand, but I need time to investigate, and I will call you after I investigate clearly, and then we will proceed to the next step." Shao Fengmian said after listening, although he did not know what happened to this gentleman. I also expressed sympathy, but as a lawyer, evidence is the most important thing, so he needs time to collect evidence and investigate, so that even if he goes to court in the future, he can fight for the best interests of this gentleman.

"Then trouble you." After Xu Xi said this, he felt a lot more relaxed. These things had been held back in his heart for a long time, thinking that he would never tell others, but he endured it alone, so it turned out that it was so fun to say it. .

"By the way, Mr. Xu, do you really not need to let Haosheng know about this?" Shao Fengmian asked, after all Lu Haosheng was also very concerned about this matter.

"Don't bother him anymore." Xu Xi said lightly.

"Okay, I see." Shao Fengmian had been a lawyer for so long, and he knew what to say, so he didn't say much.

After leaving the lawyer's office, Xu Xi felt a lot more relaxed. When he thought of the events of the past, he felt like a dream. When his parents had a car accident, he was unable to deal with such a big thing by himself. At that time, his aunt's family Taking advantage of the fire to rob, all the property of my family was taken away, and I lived in humiliation in their house for so long. It was not until two years ago that I used the excuse that I would come out to work to support myself.I think about the meager family affection and don't compete with them. After all, they are my only relatives after my parents die, but how did they treat me? When I lived in their house, basically everything at home was done by myself Do it, and even accept their abuse from time to time, but I have endured it.After I came out, my cousin asked me for money from time to time, and I tolerated it again and again because of their family affection, but my cousin would treat me like that.He is not an iron man, his heart is also made of flesh, and his heart will ache and bleed.I just have relatives who can care about me a little bit, what did I do wrong, and why should I be treated like this.After this incident, I can even say that I have already died once, and I will no longer care about those poor relatives, those that belong to me, I will take them back little by little, even if I finally reach the point of confronting Bo Gongtang, I don't care.

While Xu Xi solved a problem, Lu Haosheng got into another problem, Lin Jing was hospitalized.

Lin Jing is Lu Haosheng's childhood child. The two grew up together. Lu Haosheng has always had a strange feeling for Lin Jing. When he was young, Lin Jing was always soft and weak. He regarded him as his younger brother. , always took care of him in every possible way, but I don't know why Lin Jing became estranged from him when he grew up, and even chose a university completely different from him after graduating from high school.Later, when he entered the society, for Lin Jing, Lu Haosheng felt that his feelings had exceeded his own cognition. He was no longer the child in his memory who needed his protection, and even began to hide from himself slowly, as if he was something Like the virus, it's not that Lu Haosheng didn't feel it, but Lin Jing didn't say it clearly, so he lied to himself, saying that Lin Jing also cared about him, but he was thin-skinned and embarrassed to say it.After graduating, Lin Jing became a novelist and stayed in his apartment every day. The last time I went to see him, the house was in a mess like being swept away. If Lin Jing’s mother knew what he looked like, maybe How to deal with him.

Strange to say, the two families live close to each other. Lin Jing's parents like him, but his own parents prefer Lin Jing.I still remember when I was a child, my mother joked that if all the boys were not born, they planned to let them be together in the future.At that time, I even had little expectations, imagining what it would be like for them to be together in the future, but later they walked farther and farther, and they no longer had the innocence they had at the beginning.

Lu Haosheng felt that he had a special relationship with the hospital recently, just after Xu Xi was sent out, Lin Jing went in again, it was really interesting.

When Lu Haosheng arrived at the hospital, there were already people guarding Lin Jing's ward. Lu Haosheng greeted Wang Lu. He knew this editor. Hear stories about the editor's heroics.In my mind, this editor is something that few people would dare to provoke. After all, she not only has a bad temper, but her kung fu is comparable to that of some men. What is more important is her business methods. The magazines she handles are sold out of stock. It's a very normal thing, Lin Jing accepts sex in her hands, I really don't know if it's a blessing or a curse.

He briefly greeted Wang Lu, and then taught Lin Jing a lesson. He is such a big man, and he can't even take care of himself. I really don't know how he grew up so big.Seeing that Lin Jing's attitude of admitting his mistakes was good, Lu Haosheng didn't blame him too much. After all, he is still a patient, and he will be dealt with after he recovers.

"Let's go out and talk." Wang Lu said to Lu Haosheng.

Lu Haosheng followed Wang Lu to the outside of the ward, Lin Jing was still looking outside furtively, but Wang Lu stared back at him.It seems that Lin Jing was also scolded by this editor. If he was better, he wouldn't have to worry so much.

Knowing what happened from Wang Lu, and hearing that he was broken in love, Lu Haosheng couldn't tell what he felt. It turned out that the person who had been hiding behind him now had someone he liked, but it was him who had been living in the past. .

"Can I ask, Lin Jing, does he like men?" Lu Haosheng thought about it, after all, he saw two pairs of men's slippers when he went to Lin Jing's apartment last time, and the room was clean and tidy, not at all like Lin Jing Although Lin Jing's style was strange, he didn't think much about it, but now that Lin Jing was not only broken in love, but also sick, I couldn't allow myself to think about it too much.

Seeing that Wang Lu was silent and Lu Haosheng knew that he had guessed right, Wang Lu asked her own opinion, but she didn't say anything, she just felt a little shocked.

After Wang Lu left, Lu Haosheng went in and sat next to Lin Jing, then picked up an apple and peeled it for him. Seeing that Lin Jing was curious, he knew that he must want to know what they said outside.But Lu Haosheng didn't say much, he just told Lin Jing not to worry too much.

"You, do you like men?" After deliberating for a long time, Lu Haosheng still asked, he still wanted an answer.

"Oh, you got it." Lin Jing said casually, as if he was just talking about what he ate today.

"Do you hate me, a disgusting homosexual." Lin Jing laughed at himself.

"I just didn't expect you to lie to me for so long." Lu Haosheng said lightly, looking up at Lin Jing. "Lin Jing, have you ever liked me, even just a little bit?"

"I may fall in love with any man in this world in my life, but I will never fall in love with you, Lu Haosheng."

Lin Jing's words were like a trial for him, deeply engraved on his heart, Lu Haosheng didn't know how he got back, but it was already late when he got back to the apartment, and he saw Xu When Xi came out, he was still waiting for him.

Lu Haosheng remembered what Lin Jing said to him just now, and when he looked at Xu Xi again, it was more self-blame.

"Haosheng, we grew up together. You know my character. I'm cowardly and withdrawn. That's why I pay more attention to every relationship. I found out that I like men when I was in high school. At that time, you were so Excellent, why didn't I have a good impression of you, but do you still remember a boy named Xu Xi. At that time, he confessed to you in the corner of the school, but how did you do it? You didn't show any mercy I rejected him face-to-face, and I still remember the disgust on your face at that time. Maybe you did nothing wrong, you just don’t want to be with someone you don’t like. But you shouldn’t use this as a talking point Tell others, you said that a man confessed to himself, it is really ridiculous. Just because of your joke, he became the public enemy of the whole school, and everyone scolded him, calling him a pervert and a monster. Because of your Do you know how much harm an unintentional mistake has caused to others? You don’t know, because of you, that boy named Xu Xi dropped out of high school before finishing high school, and even moved. Comparing my heart, Haosheng, I It’s also the disgusting homosexuality they say, do you think I still like you? There’s nothing wrong with us liking the same sex, but we didn’t hurt anyone. Should we not be recognized by this society, so we deserve to be ridiculed and abused by you? .We're human too, we didn't do anything wrong, we just fell in love with someone of the same sex, isn't that also wrong?"

"Xu Xi, did I reject your confession back then?" Lu Haosheng looked into Xu Xi's eyes and asked lightly.

"It's been a long time, I forgot." Xu Xi smiled and replied casually.

"At the beginning, I caused you a lot of trouble and insult for no reason, and I apologize to you."

"It's okay, if you didn't mention it, I wouldn't even remember it." Xu Xi didn't say much, but he finally remembered.It's just that you can easily erase everything in the past with a fluffy apology, it's impossible, some things can't go back after all.

Xu Xi returned to his room, leaned against the door and slowly slipped and fell to the ground, remembering the midsummer of that year that he had forgotten for a long time.

At that time we were still very young, so we made irreparable mistakes, which became eternal scars.
