It is still late autumn, and the indoor heat is very hot.

But Song Jue felt as if he was in a cold day.

The words that Secretary Yu said before suddenly reverberated in his mind, and then suddenly, it seemed that some shackles had finally been released.

But he didn't feel half relaxed.

The previously clear mind was attacked by strange pain, he pursed his thin lips tightly, and the line of his jaw gradually became cold and hard.

There was a moment of silence.

Song Jue took a step back, something flashed in his eyes, and then faded away without a sound.

He called distantly, "Mr. Ruan."

Ruan Ye did not expect to see this face outside the door.

He was stunned for a few seconds, and almost blurted out a certain name, but after hearing the address of the other party, he suddenly realized who the person in front of him was.

He raised the corner of his mouth, put one hand on the door frame, and changed his posture to look at the young man leisurely.

Song Jue looked back at him.

No one spoke.

After a while, Lu Xian came out of the cloakroom. Seeing that Ruan Ye was still standing at the door, he walked out, "Why—"

Before he finished speaking, Song Jue's face came into view.

The young man's face was cold, but there was a sharpness in his deep eyes that was too late to hide. Lu Xian was taken aback by such sharp eyes.

When he came back to his senses, Song Jue called him, "Uncle Lu."

Lu Xian looked again.

Song Jue's expression remained the same, and the eyes he looked at him were as gentle as ever, as if the confrontation just now was just his illusion.

He said lightly, "You are back."

Ruan Ye withdrew his hand on the door as early as in the conversation just now, he turned sideways, and raised the clothes in his hands to Lu Xian, "You guys talk first, I'll change clothes?"

It was a question, but before Lu Xian could respond, he took his clothes and went out.

It was only then that Song Jue noticed that he was holding a smoke gray suit in his arms. The style was very familiar, and he was sure he had seen it before, and more than once.

Song Jue's eyes trembled for a moment, then he calmed down and looked at Lu Xian.

The man was wearing a meticulous formal attire, perhaps going out, his shirt was buttoned to the top, not showing an inch of skin.

There was no trace of what he expected.

Song Jue breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't know whether to be thankful for this or anxious.

The arrow is still stretched on the string.

The silence was interrupted.

Lu Xian sized him up, "Is the trip going well?"

Song Jue answered a few words absent-mindedly, but her eyes involuntarily turned to the bedroom.

The light was not strong, the curtains were half-closed, but the bathroom door was open, and warm water vapor came out and dissipated in the thin air.

The bitterness in my heart seemed to flow to the tip of my tongue.

Song Jue wanted to twitch the corners of his lips and ask them what happened just now, why Ruan Ye appeared in his room in such a posture.

But in the end he just whispered, "Why is Uncle Ruan here?"

This is a normal question.

Lu Xian didn't think much, and said flatly, "He lives here recently."

Just a simple sentence.

Concealing Ruan Ye's predicament and the reason for his temporary stay, Lu Xian didn't feel the need to let others know about it, and he didn't know how much impact this sentence had on the youth.

Song Jue clenched her fists, forcing herself not to show jealousy, but her heart seemed to be pierced by a sharp knife.

Howling cold wind passed through the hall.

Lu Xian was vaguely aware of his strangeness, but he didn't know why. He just thought that his previous concerns had not been fully resolved, so he said, "Go and rest first."

Song Jue raised his head, "Uncle Lu——"

"Lu Xian."

The two voices sounded at the same time.

Lu Xian glanced at him suspiciously, and then Ruan Ye who was walking quickly attracted his attention.

Wearing that smoky gray suit, he stood in front of Lu Xian with his long legs.

"Do you think my body can overwhelm Li Mingyuan?"

Lu Xian corrected helplessly, "Yanya..."

Seeing that Ruan Ye's face suddenly changed from sunny to cloudy, he cut off his unfinished words and said instead, "It's not as good as usual."

This is indeed true.

Ruan Ye is flamboyant and flirtatious by nature. Compared with the restrained and plain color of soot, the brighter wine red suits his complexion better.

Of course Ruan Ye also understands this, but this time is different from the past, he shouted dissatisfiedly, "Is it my fault? Who told you that your suit is black or gray."

Lu Xian was almost amused by his straightforwardness.

He was about to speak when he heard Song Jue say, "Uncle Lu, I still have a few new suits."

Lu Xian glanced at him.

He is taller than Ruan Ye, so the clothes are a bit too big for Ruan Ye, but the young man's figure is similar to Ruan Ye's, which seems to be more suitable.

As soon as this thought crossed his mind, he saw Ruan Ye shook his head and refused, "Forget it, it's good to change your style once in a while."

Song Jue didn't miss Ruan Ye's glance at him, he felt as if someone had seen through his mind, but so what?

He's been running away long enough.

Don't miss any chance.

Song Jue looked back at him and asked softly, "Uncle Lu, are you going out?"

Lu Xian nodded slightly, "Go to a wedding banquet."

"Do you need me to accompany you?"

Lu Xian saw that although his eyes were clear, his demeanor could hardly hide his fatigue.He shook his head slightly, "You are exhausted from the journey, rest first, I will go with your Uncle Ruan."

Ruan Ye stroked her hair impatiently, "Uncle Tiantian is long and uncle is short, and I am still an aunt."

He has been depressed and irritable recently, Lu Xian only thought he was joking, but he didn't see the provocative eyes when he deliberately looked at Song Jue.

Song Jue's breathing was stagnant, his usual calmness and rationality were gone, instead there was a bit of bottomless darkness in his eyes, so much so that his eyes were stained with a tinge of sternness.

But he didn't do anything, and when he raised his lowered eyes, there was nothing but peace.

He looked at Lu Xian intently, and said softly, "I'll wait for your return."

***

After the wedding banquet, Ruan Ye still stayed at Lu's house.

Song Jue didn't know that because of Li Mingyuan's marriage, Ruan Ye had a quarrel with his family, and the elder's attitude was rare, and they cut off all of Ruan Ye's sources of income in order to force him to submit.

Most of the friends in the circle were restricted by their families and could not lend a helping hand. Only Lu Xian brought him home.

No one mentioned these things in front of Song Jue.

Lu Xian wouldn't explain it, and naturally Ruan Ye wouldn't either.

So he sensed something was wrong.

Perhaps it was because of Song Yulan that he was overly sensitive, and he felt bad when Song Jue first appeared, but now, all this is not without trace.

Eyes are the hardest way to hide a person's emotions.

And Song Jue's eyes...

Is wrong.

Time passed like water, and when the elders of Ruan's family gradually realized that this trick could not restrain Ruan Ye, Ruan Ye also put an end to his temptation.

The answer was as expected.

But Lu Xian didn't believe it.

On the first day of March, Lu Xian slowly raised a question mark.
