accidental first love

After hearing Qiu Lu's words, Ji Yi felt sad and distressed: "Then do you want to celebrate your father's birthday?"

Qiu Lu was stunned, pursed his two petal-thin and bright red lips, lowered his eyelashes and remained silent.

"...Then do you hate him?" Ji Yi asked again.

Qiu Lu shook his head, "I don't hate it. It's just... I don't want to see them anymore."

He didn't want to see him and was extremely disappointed, so he chose to commit suicide by cutting his wrists, but he survived in another way.Every year at this time, he celebrates his father's birthday, cuts the cake, and enjoys a moment of his father's care, which is very precious to him.Intellectually, I still don't want to see my father, but I unknowingly prepared a gift...

"But, you're still here, aren't you?" Ji Yi looked at Qiu Lu, "Go and meet him. Make a settlement, get to know each other, or something else, you decide."

But Qiu Lu said in a low voice: "I can't recognize each other... Now, I have parents."

Ji Yi was taken aback for a moment, then bent his eyes and smiled and asked, "Do they treat you well?"

"Well, it's good." Qiu Lu looked serious and soft, and he took out his dead phone, "They must be very worried about me now."

Ji Yi handed out her mobile phone, "Do you remember the number?"

"Remember." Qiu Lu took Ji Yi's phone carefully, "Thank you."

Qiu Lu took his mobile phone to the side and called his current parents.Ji Yi didn't listen to what he said, but Qiu Lu's eyes were slightly red, and he promised something, then hung up the phone in less than 2 minutes, returned the phone to Ji Yi, and thanked him again.

"Do you need to call Chu Hang?" Ji Yi asked.

Qiu Lu hesitated, "Will it be too much trouble for you?"

"How come?" Ji Yi was surprised, "It's just a phone call."

It seems that Qiu Lu is really thin-skinned, and his upbringing is too good. He is too embarrassed to call on other people's mobile phones for too long.

Ji Yi sighed in his heart, if such a good child was placed by his side, it would be too late for pain, so he would not be willing to be cold and violent.

——The halo of fatherhood that Qiu Min had managed to build up in Ji Yi's heart suddenly dimmed at this moment, and the word "scumbag" that he hadn't seen for a long time slowly rose.

"Any news about Qiu Lu?" Chu Hangfu asked as soon as he picked up the phone.

Qiu Lu paused and said, "Chu Hang, I'm Qiu Lu."

"...Qiu Lu?!" Chu Hang said in shock, "Where are you? The cell phone can't get through, so I'm looking for you everywhere. Your parents are also very worried about you, so they called the police..."

"I'm fine." Qiu Lu interrupted him, "I've already called my parents, I'll go back tonight."

"Where the hell are you? What happened?"

"I can't tell you now."

"..." Chu Hang had no choice but to ask, "Why do you use someone else's mobile phone to call me? Your mobile phone is out of battery?"

"Ah."

"Then you find a way to charge the battery. I transferred 2000 yuan to you. You must come back."

Qiu Lu pursed his lips. He called his parents just now. He didn't mention that he had no money at all. When his parents asked, he only said that he still had money.Chu Hang didn't ask anything, and just sent the money.Qiu Lu was silent for a moment, then hummed again, softly, with a hoarse nasal voice.

Returning the mobile phone to Ji Yi, Ji Yi said: "Anyway, your mobile phone needs to be charged first, come with me and sit down. See Qiu Min, you can think about it."

Qiu Lu hesitated for a moment, nodded, and entered the hotel with Ji Yichen.

After arriving at the guest room, Qiu Lu opened the door and saw the big bed covered with fiery red rose petals: "..."

Ji Yi: "Uh, sit wherever you want."

Qiu Lu took out the charging cable in his backpack, charged his phone, and then sat on the single sofa cautiously.

Shen Ke sat diagonally across from him.

Qiu Lu: "..."

They looked at each other, speechless.

Ji Yi opened the small refrigerator, took three cans of drinks, and called the room service to order three dinners.

"Is it okay to have pasta and vegetable salad?" Ji Yi handed Qiu Lu the drink that opened the tab.

"Yes, thank you." Qiu Lu took the drink, took a sip very politely, raised his eyes to look at Ji Yi, still couldn't hide his strange feeling, after all, it was his "previous life" face.

He looked at Shen Ke and asked softly, "Aren't you... not afraid?"

Shen Ke smiled: "What are you afraid of? I didn't think he was you the first day he went to school."

Ji Yi was shocked: "You found out on the first day?! Your eyes are so poisonous?"

Shen Ke: "...just take it as you praise me."

Qiu Lu watched them sing and harmonize, and the interaction was naturally intimate, and there were mixed feelings for a while: "...you have a really good relationship." He had never had such a good classmate friend before.

Hearing this, Ji Yi was a little awkward, took a sip of his drink and said, "It's okay."

The pasta and vegetable salad came out, and Ji Yi thought that Qiu Lu was so hungry that he couldn't eat anything dry, so he ordered an extra sweet corn soup for him.The three chatted while eating.

Ji Yi learned that Qiu Lu's current family conditions are not particularly rich, but they are not poor either. His parents opened a fruit shop in the ancient town, a small business, and his daily life is more than enough.

It's just that Qiu Lu usually doesn't have much pocket money, but this time he has saved money for the air ticket for a long time.Ji Yi suddenly felt a little sorry, and said, "Now your father and Qiu Min give me 2 yuan for living expenses every month, and I will give you half of it."

Qiu Lu was stunned for a few seconds, then said, "No need."

Ji Yi: "You silly boy, you don't want any money?"

"..."

"He owes you this, and you deserve it."

"But, I'm not his son anymore." Qiu Lu stirred the pasta with a fork, and the noodles were tangled into a ball.

Ji Yi: "That's reasonable. I'm not his son, but I want the money he gives me. In the future, I won't feel embarrassed if he gives me the whole group. I want it. Don't want it for nothing. The big deal will be paid later. He is retired."

Qiu Lu blinked at him, his expression could not hide his novelty, probably he had never met such a peaceful and clear-hearted person like Ji Yi.

Ji Yi also looked at Qiu Lu, and his tone became gentle: "Do you know, Qiu Min is making it up to me, but he actually wants to make it up to you, his own son."

Qiu Lu suddenly lost his mind, and murmured: "Compensation?"

"As a father, he is not hopeless." Ji Yi said, "So, I gave him a chance to make amends without authorization, will you blame me?"

Qiu Lu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head lightly, "Before, I had a hard life... If he treats you well, then of course it's good."

Ji Yi poked the little tomato with a fork, and said in a relaxed tone, "He has really changed, do you want to see it?"

Before Qiu Lu could answer, there was a knock on the door.

Shen Ke went to open the door, Xia Zhili leaned in: "Master, are you ready to eat now?"

Ji Yi: "Eat when you're hungry."

Xia Zhili looked at Qiu Lu, Qiu Lu naturally recognized Xia Zhili, he couldn't help but clenched his fork tightly, with a complicated expression on his face.

"Who is this?" Xia Zhili asked.

"My friend." Ji Yi calmly asked, "Can you take him to the banquet?"

"Of course." Xia Zhili smiled, "Then you eat quickly, and go to the banquet hall after eating."

At Qiu Min's birthday party, Mei Ruxue's wife didn't attend, which made people laugh.If my son doesn't show his face again, where will Qiu Min's face go?Ji Yi could understand, he nodded: "Go right away."

Xia Zhili smiled slightly, turned around and closed the door.

After filling his stomach, Ji Yi looked at Qiu Lu patiently, waiting for his answer.After a long time, Qiu Lu finally said, "Can I really go?"

"Of course." Ji Yi said, "As long as you want to see him."

……

The banquet hall is full of fragrant clothes and temples, and the cups and cups are intertwined.

Qiu Min was able to flirt with the beauties around, until he saw Xia Zhili, he seemed to be blind and could no longer receive the beauties' glances.

Xia Zhili came over, Qiu Min asked him in a low voice, "Where's the little brat?"

"The young master will be here soon."

"Hmph." Qiu Min hummed a little arrogantly, and Xia Zhili couldn't hold back a smile.

Not long after, Qiu Min saw his cheap son coming, besides Shen Ke, there was also a strange boy beside him.

Ji Yi led Qiu Lu towards Qiu Min, but Qiu Lu stopped and stared at Qiu Min in a daze, with unknown emotions rolling in his eyes, he lowered his eyelashes for a moment, and pursed his lips tightly.

Ji Yi paused and dragged him to the stage, where there was the last piece of cake left.Qiu Lu was at a loss holding the cake Ji Yi brought him, Ji Yi smiled and said, "Eat it."

Qiu Lu took a sip, then put it down, as if about to cry, wanted to see Qiu Min, but stared stubbornly at his toes.

That was his father, not anymore.He felt that he was not qualified to stand here.

Ji Yi suddenly picked up the microphone and said "Hello" a few times, and everyone turned to look at him.Qiu Min raised his eyebrows: "Could it be that he wants to sing a song for me?"

The corner of Xia Zhili's mouth twitched: "It's better not to take this."

Ji Yi: "Hey, I don't want to bother you. Dad, dear dad, look here."

Qiu Min walked over, getting ready to listen, looking forward to his son singing "Only Dad is Good in the World".

But the facts disappointed him, Ji Yi didn't sing, but pointed to the boy beside him and said, "His name is Qiu Lu."

Qiu Min was taken aback.

Qiu Lu was also taken aback.

Everyone was stunned.

Only Shen Ke looked at Ji Yi calmly, as if no matter what decision Ji Yi made, he would support it.

Qiu Lu looked at Ji Yi in surprise, and pulled Ji Yi as if resisting, Ji Yi gave him a comforting smile, then turned to look at Qiu Min: "I have the same name as me, isn't it very fateful?"

Qiu Min: "...Oh, it's quite a fate."

Ji Yi: "Then Dad, consider him your godson."

"Godson??" Qiu Min looked at Qiu Lu, who was fooled by Ji Yi's operation, and stared blankly at Qiu Min.After a long while, Qiu Min smiled slightly, and said very confidently: "Yes."

Ji Yi applauded himself: "From today on, Dad, you have two sons. Congratulations."

Qiu Min smiled, and complained in his heart: Silly boy, how many sons are fighting with you for the family property?

In fact, he didn't take this boy named Qiu Lu seriously.

But Qiu Lu couldn't take it seriously, his shoulders trembled slightly, and he clenched his back molars tightly to keep from crying.Ji Yi asked him: "Are you still willing to call him Dad?"

Qiu Lu lowered his eyebrows and said nothing, so Qiu Min went to socialize with a smile on his face.Ji Yi was helpless for a while, but he couldn't help it. Qiu Lu's knot still needs to be untied by himself.

Afterwards, Qiulu was always quiet, like a plant, quiet and out of tune with the lively surroundings.Ji Yi stayed with him and didn't speak.Shen Ke brought them fruit juice and snacks, and the three of them formed a small world by themselves.

The piano music was melodious and soothing. Qiu Lu looked at the grand piano in the corner, and Ji Yi asked, "Do you want to play it?" Without waiting for an answer, he took Qiu Lu's hand and walked towards the corner.

Ji Yi said a few words to the musician playing the piano. The musician left the stage with a smile. Ji Yi put his hands on Qiu Lu's shoulders and pressed him on the piano bench: "Play."

Qiu Lu hesitated for a moment, touched the black and white keys with his ten fingers, took a deep breath, and began to move his fingers flexibly.

Canon in D major.

Hearing the sound of the piano, Qiu Min turned his head away, and suddenly remembered that Qiu Lu would play this piece every year on his birthday.But this year... wasn't Qiu Lu playing?

Qiu Min looked at the young man playing the piano ecstatically, and the guest asked, "Mr. Qiu, what's the matter?"

"...Oh, it's okay." Qiu Min took a sip of champagne, and continued talking and laughing with others.

The music will always be played, and the banquet will always end.

Qiu Lu stood up and said softly, "I should go."

Ji Yi was slightly stunned: "How fast? Stay for one night before leaving."

Qiu Lu shook his head: "I have to catch the plane tonight."

"...Really, don't plan to recognize each other?"

Qiu Lu looked at the well-dressed, handsome and tall Qiu Min in the crowd. That man used to be his father, the person he admired the most.But now, not anymore.

Meet, but can not recognize each other.

Qiu Lu walked towards Qiu Min step by step, and Qiu Min didn't notice it until he got close, looked at the young man in front of him suspiciously, and asked with a smile: "What's the matter?"

Qiu Lu took out a small black box from his pocket, which contained a pair of celadon cufflinks, not very valuable, but carefully selected by him.

"For me?" Qiu Min took the small box, treating it as a gadget.

"Dad... happy birthday."

Qiu Min froze for a moment, but Qiu Lu smiled at him, like dew in the morning, beautiful and fragile, evaporated and disappeared soon.

Qiu Lu passed in front of his eyes.

Qiu Min came back to his senses suddenly, but he didn't know what identity, method, and tone of voice he used to persuade him to stay. He could only watch helplessly, his heart was pricked by a needle in a trance, and it was tingling and tingling.

Why is this so?

They obviously have nothing to do with each other.

Because of that "Dad"?

But...it's not true...

Does family affection come from blood, or is it the call of the heart?

Ji Yi chased him out, "Qiu Lu!"

Qiu Lu turned his head and said, "No need to send it away."

Ji Yi still insisted on sending Qiu Lu to the airport without saying anything.

Until Qiu Lu was about to board the plane, Ji Yi suddenly stopped him, and then gave him a tight hug.

Qiu Lu stiffened his back and dared not move.Since childhood, he has rarely been hugged like this, let alone his own body in the "previous life".

It feels fantastic, but not annoying, on the contrary, a little reassuring, even moving.It was as if he was embracing himself.

Ji Yi hugged another boy tightly with her thin body.After a long time, he loosened his arms slightly and whispered in Qiu Lu's ear: "Everything will be fine, come on."

Added another sentence: "—another Qiulu."

Qiu Lu's eyes were moist, he hummed softly with a nasal voice, and then said, "Thank you."
