The husband of a financial tycoon

Shen Xiuzhu bought a copy of "Representative Works of Modern Chinese Painting Masters" in the library. Among them, his favorite is Zhang Daqian's "Picture of Concubine Yang's Sick Teeth", because he himself particularly likes to draw women, because he thinks women are beautiful. are the most moldable and diverse.

He found a corner and sat down with the album in his arms, but unexpectedly saw his high school classmate, Gao Dajie, who was also in the corner.

Gao Dajie obviously didn't notice him, he put his arms around the shoulders of a little boy in the corner, and the two of them read a book together.The little boy was wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and he was concentrating on reading. Gao Dajie sat up straight and stared at the little boy, relying on his tall and burly man.

Shen Xiuzhu decided to go back to the apartment, Gao Dajie was too fierce.Ever since he 'wanted to sue the teacher' in the first year of high school, Gao Dajie called him 'little idiot' from time to time. Shen Xiuzhu hated him, but it was a good thing that he didn't bully Zhang Wenbin anymore.

Gao Dajie had already sensed that someone was approaching, and he probably wanted to find a place to sit, but the person stopped sitting and turned around to leave, which made him look up curiously.

"Little idiot."

All the readers in the library were quiet, and this sound was a bit abrupt, and it was a curse name, so for a while, the source of Gao Dajie's voice was watched from all directions.

Shen Xiuzhu pretended not to hear, and walked towards the door without stopping.

Gao Dajie let go of his friend, stood up immediately and chased after him. When he reached the door, he couldn't see Shen Xiuzhu. He hurried downstairs, and there was no sign of Shen Xiuzhu on the first floor.

Gao Dajie stood at the door and looked at the hurried passers-by, what appeared in his heart was Shen Xiuzhu's face.He didn't expect that in high school, the first person he had a crush on would be a boy, and what's worse, this boy hated him very much.

Even if he nicknamed him 'little idiot', Shen Xiuzhu couldn't get even an angry look in his eyes.

He returned to the second floor in despair, and the little boy asked in a low voice, "Where have you been?"

Gao Dajie looked at this man wearing glasses, looking like a nerd. Except for his pale skin due to malnutrition, there was nothing like Shen Xiuzhu.

He felt bored, so he said, "I'm tired, I'll go back first."

Gao Dajie's parents are working in Shanghai, so he came to Shanghai during the summer vacation.The little boy lived in the same tube building as him, once the back of the little boy attracted him, so he went up to mingle with him, brother and sister.

But obviously, the little boy just regarded him as a buddy, originally he wanted to keep getting closer, but seeing Shen Xiuzhu today, he was a little bit less interested.

After wandering outside for a day, Gao Dajie wandered into a bar. He was a little curious about what the gay bar in the movie "Comrade Priest" looked like.

He has observed this bar for a long time, the location is hidden, only a small door is the entrance, the door is surrounded by blue lights, in the dark night, it is like a door leading to darkness.

…………

In Shanghai in 96, department stores, hypermarkets and transportation infrastructure developed rapidly, and the 'Shanghai Speed' showed the economic strength of Shanghai.

The arrival of foreign-funded retail enterprises has directly driven the prosperity of Shanghai's business.Large-scale advertisements began to appear on the streets, the streets were full of traffic, and the rickshaws were gradually replaced by passenger motorcycles. People waiting for traffic lights occasionally saw a fashionable woman in a suspender floral dress.

When the green light is on, the detector next to the sidewalk will make a "den den den" sound to remind passers-by to cross the road.

When Zhuang Xing was waiting for the green light, he looked at the pedestrians outside the car window. The lovers were both men and women. The family of three was warm and happy. This is the mainstream family in society.

Back in the apartment, Shen Xiuzhu fell asleep on the sofa, and on the easel in the corner was the result of his hard work all day.

Zhuang Xing sat on the coffee table, quietly watching Shen Xiuzhu's sleeping face...

Shen Xiuzhu was awakened by the temptation of the smell of food, he sat up to wake up, and heard his brother calling him, "Come over for dinner."

Shen Xiuzhu glanced at the wall clock, it was past 7 o'clock, he went to wash his hands and sat down to eat.

The small Shanghai wontons on the dining table are freshly made by the boss. They are stuffed with chopped pork and added with shredded fungus. They look a bit like dumpling wrappers, with a firm taste. Shen Xiuzhu especially likes this kind of thick-skinned small wontons.

There is also the Shanghai sauced duck with Shen Xiuzhu's stomach, which Zhuang Xing drove to buy. The specially selected lean meat duck is used as the ingredient. The sauced duck does not put salt in the whole process.

The whole table was filled with Shen Xiuzhu's favorite food, and the only fried shrimp with broccoli was Zhuang Xing's favorite dish.

Shen Xiuzhu swallowed the food in his mouth, pointed at the broccoli with chopsticks and said, "Brother, I want to learn this dish."

Zhuang Xing looked at the dishes and pretended not to care and said, "What?"

"I'll cook it for my brother too..." Shen Xiuzhu flattered him.

Shen Xiuzhu basically does not do housework, not because he is spoiled, but because Zhou Xuejun has been very protective of his hands since he was a child, saying that he is painting.

Zhuang Xing tightened his grip on the chopsticks, and said with difficulty: "Little Zhuzi, sooner or later you will have your own family. Your wife loves you very much, and she will cook better food for you."

"My brother will also be done by someone, so you don't need to learn..."

Shen Xiuzhu put down his chopsticks with a 'snap', and stared at Zhuang Xing with his mouth flat.

After Zhuang Xing finished speaking, he regretted it. He shouldn't have said these words at the dinner table, but no one understood how much pressure he was under. He was the person in the world who didn't want Shen Xiuzhu to be hurt the most.

Shen Xiuzhu had a sore nose, "But I want to be with my brother all the time! I just want to fry this dish for you to eat, I just want to..."

Before he could finish his nonsensical words, tears began to flow down his face. He didn't understand, he just wanted to stir-fry broccoli for his brother. Why did his brother say that, which made him feel so uncomfortable now.

His tears were like ice picks, piercing Zhuang Xing's heart one by one.

Zhuang Xing suddenly had the idea of ​​giving up on himself. What is the reason why Shen Xiuzhu is so uncomfortable now?If he knew what was in his heart, would he still be so uncomfortable?I'm afraid I wish I could stay far away from myself.

"Do you know what it means to be together all the time?" After Zhuang Xing asked this sentence, his heart became even more uneasy.

He eagerly asked himself and answered: "We have been together all this time, we formed a family with my brother, like all couples in the family, like Zixia Fairy kissing Supreme Treasure."

Shen Xiuzhu sniffed, "Okay..."

"..." Zhuang Xing shook his hand holding the chopsticks.

Shen Xiuzhu grabbed a tissue and wiped his nose. After thinking about it, he felt that his brother must agree to it. "Then brother and I have been together? It's like Chun Shisanniang and Erdangjia..."

Only then did Zhuang Xing confirm what Shen Xiuzhu said just now, but he had a headache, the child's reading comprehension was almost negative, "I will always be with you, but you are not Chun Shisanniang, and my brother is not the second in command, okay? ?”

The two of us can't give birth to Tang Seng, Zhuang Xing said in his heart.

"Then we are the Bull Demon King and...?" Shen Xiuzhu's eyeballs seemed to turn up to the left, recalling the clips in "A Chinese Journey to the West".

Zhuang Xing didn't want to be the Bull Demon King, so he stuffed a shrimp into Shen Xiuzhu's mouth, "You are the Supreme Treasure, brother is the Moonlight Treasure Box, eat quickly."

Shen Xiuzhu, who had solved the major issues in his life, ate the sauced duck leg contentedly. He was still thinking about learning how to cook broccoli and cook it for Zhuang Xing.

While washing the dishes, Zhuang Xing recalled the conversations at the dinner table. The emotional problems that had been troubling him for so long were actually solved in an ordinary home-cooked meal.

Going back to the living room, I saw Kong Qingnen’s child sitting on the sofa, with short hair cut just after the summer vacation, revealing a smooth forehead, a nose with straight curves from the corners of the eyes, and a pouty mouth when viewed from the side, either in anger , or just want to act like a baby.

Zhuang Xing was a little distracted, he sat down beside the child, and naturally took the child's hand to hold it.

Shen Xiuzhu was still staring at the TV, Zhuang Xing wanted to try to turn off the TV, and when Shen Xiuzhu turned to look at him, he would kiss him.

In the end, Shen Xiuzhu did turn his head to look at him, but before he could move for a second, he stood up and said to him, "Brother, go downstairs to skateboard!"

Zhuang Xing was dragged downstairs by Shen Xiuzhu, feeling a little puzzled, what kind of person did he talk to himself?

The apartment that Zhuang Xing rents is newly developed. It used to be a mansion building, so the small pavilion, stone tables and benches are still kept downstairs, but the trees have been dug out, leaving only some shrubs and green plants.

Shen Xiuzhu shuttled around the trails near these green plants, playing skateboard freely, while Zhuang Xing sat on the stone bench and watched him.

He thought that Shen Xiuzhu still didn't understand what it meant for the two of them to be together in this society. Of course, Zhuang Xing didn't want Shen Xiuzhu to get hurt, but he asked himself, can he let go?

The answer is no, Zhuang Xing felt that only if he was stronger and stood taller, would Shen Xiuzhu not have the chance of being seriously injured by bad words.

Shen Xiuzhu felt that he was already his brother's husband, but his brother still couldn't let him eat a small burger. He sighed, feeling that the two of them hadn't changed at all.

In August, Wanhu BBS, the first open social forum in China, was established.

On August 8th, Teacher Qiu Yu came to Shanghai. Qiu Yu was surprised that Shen Xiuzhu did not follow the theme they agreed on, but was pleasantly surprised that the composition of this painting was obviously more meaningful.

Shen Xiuzhu's entry [Companion], the inscription - My Lord, who is not stained by a speck of dust, fits his personality;

Qiu Yu was very satisfied with the students' works, and confidently took Shen Xiuzhu to submit the call for works. There were nearly 600 entries this time, and only 60 were awarded. The prize was a Phoenix bicycle.

On August 8, Zhuang Xing bought Shen Xiuzhu a boat ticket back to Zhuangzhou Island on the 20rd.

Two days before returning to the island, Shen Xiuzhu accompanied Zhuang Xing to work, and Zhuang Xing went to a meeting again. Shen Xiuzhu took a pen, ink and paper from the cubicle and spread them on the desk. Before he went back, he wanted to write a few words and hang them in his brother's office.

As long as there is Zhuang Xing, there are Shen Xiuzhu's drawing tools, he is so clingy.

He pressed the keyboard on the paper and wrote the word "Zhaomu". When he was about to get his own seal, he accidentally knocked over the ink bottle...

So the white keyboard was flooded with ink, Shen Xiuzhu was dumbfounded, he knew that he had used an inkstone to rub the ink.

Zhuang Xing returned to the office after the meeting, and saw the child sitting on the office chair obediently at a glance, looking at him with soft, flattering eyes.

Zhuang Xing raised his eyebrows and walked towards the desk.His keyboard had obviously been washed by water, and there were water stains under the keycaps, and his desk was a mess.

Shen Xiuzhu admitted his mistake: "Brother, I accidentally knocked over the ink, the keyboard is dirty and I want to clean it..."

Zhuang Xing raised one eyebrow. The keyboard was obviously scrapped. He squeezed Shen Xiuzhu's cheek angrily, "I'll buy you a new one." This naughty ghost.

ah?Shen Xiuzhu asked in confusion: "What are you buying new for?"

"Ink, didn't you say it was spilled?"

Shen Xiuzhu pursed his lips and laughed, he threw himself on Zhuang Xing, wrapped his arms around his brother's neck, and hung on Zhuang Xing's body.

Zhuang Xing wrapped his arms around Shen Xiuzhu's waist fondly, no matter what time his little bamboo did, it was nothing to worry about.
