Jiang Mingyun pointed to his mobile phone to indicate that he would answer the call, the reporter paused, and everyone in the conference room looked at Jiang Mingyun who was in the main seat.

"Wait a minute." He got up, opened the glass door and walked out.

"Mingyun...how can I..."

Jiang Mingyun bit his lower lip, his frowns parted, he thought it was Deng Luoyi who called, but he didn't expect it to be Luo Xuan.He felt the joy of the rest of his life after the catastrophe, but at the same time felt guilty that he was taking advantage of others' danger.

"Don't cry, tell me where you are, I'll be right there." He avoided the others, walked to the corner and whispered.

"I don't know...it's the airport...I don't know which airport it is..."

"What can you see, tell me."

"I can't see anything...the bathroom...in the cubicle..." Luo Xuan hated places with many people, he felt like a fish trapped in a net, exposed to the sun, especially uncomfortable.He gets nervous easily, and when he gets nervous, he can't organize his words well.

Jiang Mingyun couldn't ask Luo Xuan to come out of his shell.

"Luo, I want to locate your phone now, and I need your permission."

"You can do anything...I don't want to...stay here...I want to see you..."

Jiang Mingyun ran back to the conference room, and the interrupted meeting continued. He asked his assistant to make more detailed minutes of the meeting and send them to him before tomorrow.After expressing his apology, he hurriedly left, leaving everyone to whisper.

It started snowing on the way to the airport, and the sky was covered with gray clouds. Jiang Mingyun raised his wrist to look at his watch from time to time. The red light ahead made him upset.He struggled with how to face Luo Xuan. Deng Luoyi resisted the intimacy between them. He should respect Deng Luoyi's own wishes and leave him.But thinking that they could only be ordinary friends, the pain came to bite his conscience, and desire overflowed from the crack, slowly but irresistibly flooding the wilderness of his soul.

He is well aware of his own baseness.

However, when he found Luo Xuan, his emotions instantly overcame his rationality.

The fear in Luo Xuan's eyes hadn't dissipated, like a big clumsy dog ​​threw himself into his arms, tears dripping down the side of Jiang Mingyun's neck, softer than a kiss, hotter than a flame.Luo Xuan was afraid, and hugged him tightly with all his strength.

People came in and out of the restroom at the airport, and most of them looked at the two big men in suits and leather ties hugging each other with strange eyes.Jiang Mingyun didn't care about other people, but Luo Xuan just buried his face deeper on his shoulder, treating him as the only safe haven.

"Let's go home."

Luo Xuan nodded slightly.

With infinite pity, Jiang Mingyun lowered his head and gently wiped away the bright tears on Luo Xuan's cheeks, and led him out of the bathroom with his arms around his shoulders.The waiting hall was noisy with people, Jiang Mingyun quietly covered Luo Xuan's ears, trying to isolate himself from external stimuli as much as possible.After taking a few steps, he met the anxious Eve.

Both of them were taken aback.

Eve, who was dressed in business attire, trotted through the crowd without caring about her appearance.Luo Xuan was puzzled by Jiang Mingyun's sudden stop, and looked up at his solemn side face.

"Dr. Jiang, I have to take Mr. Deng back to the United States. He needs to be treated."

Eve is a small and exquisite woman, slender, with dark brown straight short hair reaching her ears, and her eyes are slightly set apart, making her look a little unnatural.

"I'm sorry, Eve, I'm afraid I can't hand him over to you." Jiang Mingyun tightened his arms.

Luo Xuan grabbed Jiang Mingyun's clothes with both hands, looked blankly at his lover, then at Eve.

"I remember her... she is my brother's...life assistant..." Luo Xuan looked at Eve with timid eyes, and tiptoed to whisper in Jiang Mingyun's ear.

"My brother is looking for me again...he's bad...don't let me go out...let's run...I don't want to go back..."

Jiang Mingyun didn't know how to respond, he just squeezed out a complicated smile, with a hint of bitterness oozing out.

Eve took a step closer, staring closely at Luo Xuan, hoping that his boss would wake up at the critical moment, and not cheat his teammates, "Mr. Deng is a patient, and he can't control himself when he gets sick. I am his assistant, and I have the responsibility to take care of him." .”

"You are his assistant, you have the responsibility to take care of him, and you have no right to restrain him." Jiang Mingyun said softly, "I will take him to see a psychiatrist, you don't have to worry."

Eve shook her head and smiled wryly, and said, "He doesn't like men, why do you force him? When Mr. Deng wakes up, both of them will suffer."

"You don't want your relationship with him to deteriorate any further?"

What happened last night rushed back to Jiang Mingyun's mind in an unstoppable manner. He deliberately forgot, but remembered clearly.

Deng Luoyi doesn't like men, it is impossible to love him.

The boarding announcement reminded again and again, Eve squeezed the ticket tightly in her hand, countless passengers with luggage passed by the stationary people, Jiang Mingyun gathered his five fingers together, and then relieved his strength.

"What is she talking about?" Luo Xuan asked with wide eyes.

Luo Xuan gave him innocent gazes, gave him a baby-like nostalgia, it would be great if Deng Luoyi could feel Luo Xuan's emotions, there is no need for a [-]% emotional connection, one percent, even one thousandth, he would Not so cruel to him.

"Luo, your brother is sick, do you want to see him?"

"No." Luo Xuan refused quite simply.

"I'm a little seriously ill, are you going?"

Because of the foreseeable gloomy future, Jiang Mingyun couldn't bear to force Luo Xuan to stay.He vacillated and left the choice to fate.

Luo Xuan's pupils trembled, and he frowned, half puzzled and half worried, "Impossible! My brother is very powerful, he can't be seriously ill!"

I don't know where he came from the belief that Deng Luoyi is an invulnerable person who is invulnerable to all poisons.

"I kid you not."

Hearing this, tears welled up in Luo Xuan's eyes, he let go of Jiang Mingyun's clothes and looked around, his reaction was very strange, he couldn't guess what he was going to do next.

Eve was quick-witted and knew that if she wanted to bring the sick Mr. Deng back to the United States, it would be useless to coax him. She had to scare him, and seized the opportunity to say, "Mr. Deng really wants to see you. His condition is already very bad."

Luo Xuan glanced at her when he heard her words, and his eyes continued to stick to Jiang Mingyun. Jiang Mingyun was the only person he trusted unconditionally. He asked him: "Is it true?"

"It's true...he wants you to go back to the United States." Jiang Mingyun's breathing was slow, but his heart beat rapidly. He restrained himself and didn't show too much sadness.

"Luo, do you want to go back?"

Luo Xuan had to make his own choice.

The scheduled flight was already late, so Eve rolled the tickets into balls and waited for the two people on the opposite side to discuss the result.Jiang Mingyun couldn't go back to the United States with Luo Xuan. Luo Xuan was worried about Deng Luoyi's illness, but he didn't want to leave Jiang Mingyun.He was so anxious that he couldn't say a complete sentence, and repeatedly begged Jiang Mingyun to accompany him.

However, no.

In this way, they retreated to their normal positions. One person's memory will not hurt two people after all.

Jiang Mingyun accompanied Luo Xuan to wait in the first-class lounge for more than half an hour, and the two sat side by side on the sofa.During the period, Luo Xuan said that he had a headache, so he lay on Jiang Mingyun's lap and closed his eyes to rest. He couldn't fall asleep. He stood up and sat down again, with his face resting on Jiang Mingyun's shoulder, his mouth pursed in a daze.

At the boarding gate, Jiang Mingyun straightened Luo Xuan's tie and comforted him, "Luo, wait for me in the United States, we will meet in a few days. You have to eat well and try to go to bed early at night. If you are not feeling well, such as a headache, Tell Eve in time."

Luo Xuan's eyelashes drooped, and redness appeared under the thin skin at the end of his eyes. His poor drooping eyes were wetly aimed at Jiang Mingyun, as if a little bit of grievance of being abandoned, and he repeatedly confirmed the reunion with him in a soft voice. time and place.

A few steps away, Eve has been observing Luo Xuan's demeanor and movements.Split personality is an extremely rare mental illness. Of course, it is impossible for Mr. Deng to let the outside world know that he is mentally abnormal. He hides it very well. Even Eve, who has been his life assistant for three years, does not know about his second personality. The presence.It wasn't until his condition deteriorated to the point where he had to see a psychiatrist and take antipsychotic medication every week that Eve found out.

But if Mr. Deng didn't make it clear, Eve pretended not to know.

She had previously thought that Luo Xuan's personality was gloomy and aggressive. She still remembered that when she came to Mr. Deng's mansion on the top of the mountain that morning, the servant told her that Mr. Deng hadn't woken up yet.She noticed something was wrong. Mr. Deng was going to participate in a charity event in the morning. He was always punctual, so it was impossible for him to be resting at this time.

After calling a few times outside the bedroom door, but no one answered, the housekeeper took the key to open the door.The curtains were tightly closed, and the bedroom was shrouded in shadows. The quilt on the bed showed signs of being turned over, and no one was seen. Eve quickly pushed open the door of the restroom, and saw messy mirror fragments and dried dark red blood all over the floor. Mr. Deng was lying on the floor in a white silk nightgown, his bare skin was blue and white, and his life and death were unknown.

Her brain buzzed, and she stretched out her hand, thinking that she couldn't move him at will, so she turned her head and asked the housekeeper to call the family doctor in a sharp voice.Unexpectedly, the sound woke Mr. Deng up. He propped up his upper body, shook his head, and stood up as if nothing had happened.

Eve, still in shock, asked him what happened.Deng Luoyi smiled indifferently, leaned against the wall, and pulled out the mirror fragment embedded in his palm by himself.His cold, downcast eyes turned towards Eve, with a kind of magic that captivated those who looked at them.

He said - don't you know?I'm sick.

Cold and numb reality, every word is self-deprecating.

Eve thought that Luo Xuan was a tightly closed curtain, a broken mirror, a wound, and a dirty bloodstain, but never thought that he was a soft cub, without the cub's fearless desire to explore, he was sensitive and Cowardly, weak and closed, dependent on people other than yourself.

Unable to believe that this person is actually their big boss, Mr. Deng, Eve felt a sense of absurdity that the world was collapsing from the bottom of his heart, and also felt a little inexplicable.

After finally coaxing Luo Xuan into the boarding gate, Jiang Mingyun was full of distracting thoughts.

The oncoming car blew its horn in a panic, pulling him out of his memories at once.He left the middle of the road, pulled out his vibrating cell phone, and found six missed calls.

The caller number was noted as "Luo" by him!

Jiang Mingyun returned the same way, unbuttoned his suit and ran, answering the phone while running.

"You lied to me!" Luo Xuan complained on the other end of the phone.

Jiang Mingyun was dumbfounded, the corners of his mouth and eyebrows were completely occupied by joy, "Luo, are you at the boarding gate? Stand where you are and don't run around, I'll pick you up right away."

After tossing for a long time, night fell, under the street lights, the ground was covered with a layer of fluffy snow, and there was a slight traffic jam.Luo Xuan was sitting in the co-pilot seat, holding in his arms a bag of fried chestnuts that Jiang Mingyun bought for him at the airport. He was getting angry, cracked open the chestnut shell, and stuffed the golden chestnuts into his chest. In the mouth, don't give it to Jiang Mingyun.

"Luo, you're so angry!" Jiang Mingyun took the initiative to provoke him and pinched his bulging cheek.

Luo Xuan moved his butt, turned around, turned his head towards Jiang Mingyun, and ignored him.

"How do you know I lied to you? Honey, let me die more clearly."

Taking advantage of the opportunity of waiting for the traffic lights, Jiang Mingyun deftly snatched the chestnuts that Luo Xuan had just peeled.Luo Xuan turned back to stare at him, his drooping eyes couldn't pretend to be vicious, but seemed to be angry. In the end, Jiang Mingyun stuffed the chestnuts he had snatched into his mouth.

"If my brother is seriously ill, you will definitely go back to America, I'm not stupid." Luo Xuan lowered his head and carefully opened the chestnut shells.

Jiang Mingyun couldn't laugh anymore, Luo Xuan's words became meaningful in his ears, he suspected that Luo Xuan knew something.

"Why am I 'definitely going back to America'?"

"Isn't he your boss? How could you not go back?"

Luo Xuan peeled a few chestnuts, twisted them between his fingers one by one, and fed them to Jiang Mingyun who was driving.
