Chapter 33 The imprint of the substitute that cannot be eliminated【Catching insects】

Fania Restaurant

One of the favorite places of imperial capital nobles.Different from the complex cooking methods that the nobles of the imperial capital usually advocate, Fania Restaurant brings together food from different cities, with a variety of tastes and varieties.And its elegance is not a warm dining environment, it is very easy to attract the favor of many people.

In the most conspicuous place in the lobby on the first floor.Fu Zhen was sitting in the main seat enjoying the food, while Qu Jing was busy sitting beside him.

The exquisite blue-and-white porcelain dinner plate looks more and more exquisite after being specially frozen. Qu Zhi picked up the small dish with caviar on the side and evenly sprinkled this delicious food called "black gold" on it.

"Slightly sour raspberry juice and caviar are the best combination. It's perfect as an appetizer for lunch." Qu Jing explained to Fu Zhen in a low voice while busy.The seemingly cumbersome and troublesome collocation shows another charming charm in the hands of Qujing.

Fu Zhen rubbed his forehead, seeming to be very helpless with Qu Jing's strict eye, but in fact, there was indulgence and pampering in his eyes: "I think rice wine is the best."

"That's not okay," Qu Jing refused bluntly: "You haven't had a good rest these two days. It is necessary to stop alcohol temporarily. This is for your health."

While Qujing was talking, he carefully helped Fu Zhen pick out the ones he didn't like and those that weren't suitable for his physical condition from the various dinner plates.After being picky, I can't wait to cook by myself to handle Fu Zhen's meals

The tall and refined young man looked at the lovely young man with pampering and pampering eyes, and the two of them sat side by side eating together with a very intimate appearance, which was really enviable.

This is what Lu Mingyuan saw as soon as he walked into the lobby.

The pure smile on Qu Jing's face and the burning friendship in his eyes gave Lu Mingyuan a taste of déjà vu.

Lu Mingyuan suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, because the winding path at the moment didn't look like he was acting perfunctory with Fu Zhen.

"Mr. Lu doing well recently?" Lu Mingyuan's overly focused gaze caught Fu Zhen's attention. He greeted him, but he still sat on the chair and didn't get up.

"It's okay." Lu Mingyuan nodded, but his puzzled eyes still stayed on Qu Jing and did not leave.Because he found it too strange.

So, under the invitation of Fu Zhen with ulterior motives, the three of them soon sat together.The order of positions at the dinner table also became a little subtle, with Fu Zhen sitting first, then Qujing, and finally Lu Mingyuan.

The fun lunch time continues.

Fu Zhen and Qu Jing were the same as before, and they interacted intimately as if no one else was around.And Qujing also took care of Fu Zhen's diet as always, even with an outsider like Lu Mingyuan around, his eyes were still completely on Fu Zhen.

Lu Mingyuan frowned, casually took a bite of food.

Difficult to enter.

Not knowing how he felt, Lu Mingyuan put the tableware aside.

Fu Zhen, on the other hand, watched his reaction coldly, enjoying the winding path's service comfortably.

As Fu Zhen frowned more and more tightly, Fu Zhen felt that his heart, which had been clouded for so many days, finally saw a ray of sunshine.

In a daze, Lu Mingyuan picked up the cup next to him and took a sip of tea.Because of his absent-mindedness, he didn't find any ingredients in it that were not suitable for him to drink.

The clear tea entered his throat, and before he tasted it, the instant cramping in his stomach made him frown uncontrollably.

"Hmm..." Lu Mingyuan let out a painful moan from his tightly pursed lips.

And Qujing sitting next to him also noticed this sensitively.

At the beginning, Qujing's expression was still indifferent, and he didn't respond.But when he was taking a distant dish for Fu Zhen, he accidentally met Lu Mingyuan's eyes, and then his expression suddenly became dazed.

"You..." With lips and teeth opening and closing, Qu Jing seemed to want to say something, but he couldn't make a sound, and his eyes were red with anxiety.

"What's wrong?" Fu Zhen and Lu Mingyuan asked this sentence almost in unison, but their meanings were completely different.Fu Zhen was nervous, while Lu Mingyuan was probing after discovering the clue.

Then, under their surprised eyes, Qu Jing couldn't express his thoughts smoothly, so he simply got up and walked to Lu Mingyuan's side, took out the potion from the storage spar he carried with him, and helped him deal with the sudden stomach pain.

At the same table, the scene was suddenly changed, and it was Fu Zhen who was excluded this time.

Although there were no words of concern, the anxious expression on Qu Jing's face and the real worry in his eyes were enough to explain his unspoken thoughts.And Lu Mingyuan's reasonable acceptance also implies that he has long been accustomed to this way of getting along with Qujing.

Really persistent love.

Even if she is empathized, she will instinctively worry about him.Even if you forget the past, you will be attracted to him instinctively.Therefore, what is stolen will not be eternal after all.

Fu Zhen's face turned pale, and his eyes were filled with gloom.

The exquisite meal in front of him still exudes a tempting aroma, but Fu Zhen can no longer taste other flavors except bitterness.

After all, he was doing something he was used to, and the contingency method of the winding path was very neat.Lu Mingyuan's stomach pain relieved quickly, and his face was no longer so ugly.Seeing that he was much better, Qu Jing returned to his seat with peace of mind and sat down.But this time, he didn't ignore Lu Mingyuan, but helped him choose the most suitable food.

Just like what I did for Fu Zhen just now.No, it was a little more familiar and natural than when facing Fu Zhen.

Fu Zhen saw it in his eyes, and the hole in his heart became bigger and bigger. It was almost painful for him to breathe, and his hand holding the tableware became tighter and tighter.

The spoon carved from white ivory was very hard, but it still couldn't withstand Fu Zhen's strength and was crushed.

The subtle sound of the spoon breaking was particularly obvious on the relatively quiet dining table, and Fu Zhen's hand was injured due to too much force, and blood flowed from the wound drop by drop.

"What's the matter?" Fu Zhen's strange behavior finally brought Qu Jing back to his senses.He immediately put Lu Mingyuan aside, and anxiously said to the waiter in the restaurant: "Go find some clean clothes."

Then, he immediately pulled Fu Zhen up from the seat and went to treat the injury on his hand.But Lu Mingyuan was selectively ignored by them, and stayed alone at the dining table.

Looking at Fu Zhen's intimate appearance not far away, the memories of the past were brought back again.Lu Mingyuan suddenly remembered that when he was with Qu Jing before, all the stitches on his body were served by Qu Jing himself.But now seeing him abandoning himself for others at will, this made Lu Mingyuan feel very delicate, and then a feeling of suspected jealousy also arose.

As for Fu Zhen, it was not easy.

Qu Jing has never stopped telling him, but every affectionate word he utters is like a sharp knife, stabbing his heart fiercely one by one.

"I'm not a child, why are you still so careless? It's clear that when I was a teenager, I was as mature as an adult, laughing at my childishness every day, but now the older I am, the more worried I am."

"I don't like that spoon, just change it. It's really..."

There was a distressed taste in Qujing's complaining tone, and the movement of bandaging the wound with his hands was extremely gentle.However, such a very warm scene, to Fu Zhen, was tantamount to suffering and torture.

Why did he act like an adult when he was a teenager, Qujing had never seen him at that time!

Fu Zhen is 15 years older than Qujing, and the first time they met was at the Imperial First Academy.So who is the person Qujing said, who he was thinking when facing Fu Zhen, and who the real owner of this love is, there is no need to think carefully at all.

Closing his eyes tiredly, Fu Zhen listened to the gentle and sweet voice in his ears. The sweeter the candy he swallowed, the deeper the wound on his heart would be.

-------------------

After a good meal, they broke up unhappy like this. Both Fu Zhen and Lu Mingyuan were in a very gloomy mood at the moment.

Fu Zhen took a step forward with the winding path, while Lu Mingyuan stayed and continued to eat.

But just when they were about to walk out of the restaurant gate, Qujing suddenly stopped and turned to look at Lu Mingyuan.

Under the warm lighting of the Fania restaurant, the lines of Lu Mingyuan's expressionless face became much softer, especially when he lowered his head to eat seriously, revealing a somewhat familiar gentleness and elegance.

Qujing hesitated for a moment, then raised his head and asked Fu Zhen: "Teacher, was that your brother just now? From a certain angle, you really look alike."

Qu Jing said the word "as if" was a little vague, but in Fu Zhen's ears, it seemed that thunder had exploded out of thin air, making him speechless.And his heart was completely crushed because of the words of the winding path

Actually, it hurts too much.

Fu Zhen's body began to tremble uncontrollably.He couldn't bear it anymore and stretched out his hand to hug Qujing in his arms.However, the warm body temperature of the boy in his arms made his heart more erratic.

Holding Qujing's jaw, Fu Zhen forced him to look at himself: "Qujing, do you love me?"

"Of course." Qu Jing answered very happily. Seeing Fu Zhen's painful expression, he emphasized again: "Of course I love you. Teacher, what happened to you all of a sudden? Are you feeling unwell?"

"No." The reasonable answer seemed highly credible, but it was actually a deception disguised under the empathy potion.But even so, Fu Zhen had to admit that he still got some comfort from it.

Really humble and pitiful.

Fu Zhen shook his head, let go of the winding path with a dazed expression, feeling that his chest had almost lost its human warmth.

--------------------

On the carriage back, Fu Zhen never spoke again, and Qu Jing also saw that he was in a bad mood, so he kept quiet and thoughtful, and stayed by his side.

A handful of fresh mint grass was placed in the small copper hand stove.The cool smell can easily drive away people's fatigue and tiredness, and even messy thoughts can be calmed down slowly in this fresh smell.

Such intimate small details can only be achieved by the winding path.Fu Zhen looked at him tending to the hand stove, and his eyes became more and more empty.

It took a long time before he took out a ring with a dazed expression.

"Give it to you, do you want it?" Fu Zhen's tone was very light, but the emotions in it were very complicated.He has prepared this ring for a long time, it is unique, and he has put all his thought into it.He originally wanted to find a good time to give it to the winding path, but for some reason, he couldn't help but take it out under such circumstances.

And Qu Jing was also very happy, he took the initiative to hand his hand to Fu Zhen and asked him to help him put it on.Then he bowed his head and kissed cherishingly.

The originally clear and clear eyes became more pure because of the pure joy, and Fu Zhen couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips together with the sense of happiness born from the inside out.However, in the next second, Qujing's doubtful question broke his calm thoughts again, pushing him into an even more desperate abyss.

"Fu Zhen...brother, have you ever given me a ring before?"

"..." Fu Zhen was speechless.

Brother Fu Zhen, what an intimate yet unfamiliar name.It's a pity that the winding path always called him teacher, and he had never given a winding path ring before.As for being called elder brother by Qujing, there was only one person who gave him a ring, and that was Lu Mingyuan.

So, still can't forget?

Huge pain enveloped Fu Zhen's whole body.And then, Qujing's body also changed unexpectedly.

After asking those words just now, Qujing's eyes suddenly became confused.Different from the momentary daze in the restaurant, this winding absence lasted for a long time, and the way he looked at Fu Zhen also began to become mechanically dull.

But gradually, these confusion gradually dissipated, but a trace of hatred slowly revealed.

No more, no less, just such a small point, after a flash, there is no trace left.But it was enough for Fu Zhen to see clearly what kind of existence he was in the heart of the winding path after the empathy potion expired.

The heart was completely shattered, and the fourth causal line was only left with the last fifth.

------------------

It was night, and Fu Zhen was standing in the study, holding an ancient parchment scroll in his hand.Under the dim light, the parchment was reflected against the blank expression on his face, making him look even more eerie and treacherous.

Potion of Nightmare.

The mysterious formula left by the ancient gods can completely destroy a person's previous memory and fall in love with the person who gave him the medicine.

But if the user is a female, there will be a huge price to pay.

Fu Zhen stroked the parchment in his hand expressionlessly. The detailed explanation on it had already made him realize deeply what the consequences would be if he used it.

The sea of ​​consciousness in the winding path will be shattered and become a real useless person, just like when he first approached, embarrassed, weak, and can only be protected by others.

If this really becomes like this, does that mean that the winding path can only rely on itself in the future?And the relationship between him and Qujing can also be restored to its previous appearance.

There is no more Lu Mingyuan, no more substitutes, no more hatred, all these pasts will be turned into clouds, and he and the winding path can start again.But this time, he will pursue the winding path well, so that he can truly fall in love with himself and respond to himself.

Such a wonderful illusion made Fu Zhen suddenly excited.

He squeezed the parchment in his hand tightly, and said excitedly: "It's okay to destroy it, completely destroy it, so that you can have it completely..."

And outside the study door, Qujing was standing there with a tray of supper.Through the crack of the door, he clearly saw Fu Zhen's crazy appearance.His expressionless face looked too pale in the dim light.As if frightened by the scene in front of him, he put the tray on the ground, then turned and ran.

However, what he thought in his heart was that the time was almost up, and he could completely close the net.

--------------------

Lujia

After returning from Fania Restaurant, Lu Mingyuan called his confidants to start a close investigation.He vaguely felt that something was wrong, so he wanted to get a definite answer.

Naturally, he couldn't reach out to the Qu family, but the Fu family was not impenetrable.Although under such a hasty visit, the news obtained is only a few words.But it was enough for Lu Mingyuan, a politician, to deduce a lot of useful information from it.

Looking at the investigation report sent back by his subordinates.Lu Mingyuan picked up a pen and circled a few seemingly ordinary points.

He found that the Fu family suddenly disappeared several servants for no reason recently, including female and male.Origin, original owner, personal experience, nothing in common.

If it is to eliminate dissidents, although it is reasonable, it is still a bit far-fetched.Because most of the people who disappeared were low-level servants who were not even qualified to enter the main residence of the Fu family.

So why on earth did they suddenly disappear?

Lu Mingyuan took advantage of the situation to investigate and found something strange.

These dead servants used to have lovers who had been in love for many years, but they suddenly changed their temper before they died, and inexplicably began to pursue other people, even strangers they had never seen before.

This is a bit interesting, Lu Mingyuan suddenly thought of something, turned forward a few pages, and found the list of recent visitors to the Fu family.Sure enough, there was Qu Qinglan's name on it.

Everything makes sense, the disappearance of the servants of the Fu family, the unexpected visit of Qu Qinglan, and the strange reaction of the winding path, these details all point to a conclusion, that is, Fu Zhen used some kind of medicine Controlled the winding path, or rather, forced the winding path to fall in love with him.

If so...

Recalling the previous situation at Fania Restaurant, Lu Mingyuan suddenly felt a subtle satisfaction in his heart.

If Qujing didn't forget him even when he was drugged, and added the ring that never left his hand before, does that mean that Qujing's love for him has been engraved into his soul, even if he can't control himself, Will you find yourself the moment you see him?

Thinking of this, Fu Zhen decided to find Qu Qinglan to test him out, so that he could find out the truth of the matter.

The third causal line trembled again, and the cracks on it increased a lot.

--------------------

Empire First College

Qu Qinglan looked at the invitation letter in her hand and narrowed her eyes dangerously, because it said: "I know the secret of the winding path, do you want to talk to me?"
