The Heart of a Smith

When I came out, there were no people on the street, and there were not many cars. Those who worked and went to school all went home. This city is the most deserted during the Chinese New Year all year round.

Their car was parked across the street, separated by a short distance, so they could only walk.The snow on the ground was covered with a thick layer of ice because no one cleaned it. Li Sui was carrying things in both hands, and one of his left and right hands slipped.

Hearing the movement, Lu Shang turned around and waited for him to approach, then handed him a hand.Li Sui froze on the spot, moved all the bags aside clumsily, and held it with his other hand.Lu Shang's fingers were very cold and had no temperature, and it was not comfortable to touch them in the winter, but Li Sui stared at the clasped hands, as if he heard the sound of warmth flowing in his ears.

Back at night, Aunt Lu boiled ginger and pear juice for them, and each of them drank a large bowl before going to bed, so as to relieve the hangover and keep out the cold.

"Don't you have to go to the company tomorrow?" Li Sui had figured out Lu Shang's routine, and when he came out of the bathroom, he handed him hot water and pills.

"Well," Lu Shang dried his hair with a bath towel, and took the pills, "Why don't you take out your new phone and try it out?"

Hearing this, Li Sui quickly turned the bag out, as if he had been waiting for this moment.Lu Shang sat on the bed, threw away the packing box, installed a phone card for him, stored his number in it, and handed it back to him: "Call one."

The name Lu Shang saved for himself was "Lu Shang", which was simple and clear, without any title.Li Sui stared at the extra item in the address book, feeling much more complicated than he imagined.This kind of feeling is probably incomprehensible to ordinary people. His past is blank, just like this address book, but now, look, there is one more person, how incredible.

Many people will say "keep in touch" when they meet and exchange numbers. By leaving this string of numbers, it is acquiesced to accept the other party to establish contact with you. In his small world, Lu Shang is the first such person.

"Is that so? There seems to be no response?" Li Sui dialed out, but there was no sound in the room.

Lu Shang opened the drawer with one hand, and there was light inside: "I muted it, you can try this again." After speaking, he handed the tablet to him.

This thing is complicated for Li Sui, but it's not like he's not new to it, and it's the same thing that's used to order in bars.Li Sui has always had little interest in this kind of electronic products. He always feels that the operation is too complicated and the screen is too fancy. He will never touch it when he can not use it.

The interface that Lu Shang handed over was very simple, with a pure black background, large fonts, and only a few icons on it.

"These two are for beginners in English, and this one is for learning idioms," Lu Shang taught him patiently. "This one is for practice questions. After class, let the teacher teach you how to use it, you know?"

Li Sui: "Okay."

Lu Shang swiped a few more times and asked, "What's your birthday?"

Li Sui didn't answer, but Lu Shang glanced up and knew that he had asked another unnecessary question, so he directly pulled his finger over and pressed it on the button in the middle.

After recording the fingerprints, Lu Shang demonstrated it to him personally: "This way, it will be opened."

Company A's products are always user-friendly, and they are very easy to use. Li Sui held the tablet for a while and quickly grasped the key points. He turned around and wanted to report to Lu Shang, but found that he had fallen asleep with his eyes closed.

Li Sui once heard Liang Zirui bragging that he accidentally mentioned that Lu Shang has amazing willpower and always looks energetic in front of others, but in fact his body gets tired easily.Thinking about it, he hardly rested this day, and drove him around in the snow at night, so he must be extremely tired.

Li Sui gently put all the tablet phones into the drawer, and quietly turned off the lights.

The bedroom is well heated, but Lu Shang's body temperature is low, especially the lower limbs, the legs and feet are cold, and there is no temperature at all.Li Sui couldn't help but gently leaned towards him, giving him a bit of body temperature. He was used to being cold since he was a child, but instead he developed a physique that would keep him warm no matter how thin he was wearing.

It was only in the middle of the night that Li Sui felt the heat in the bed, and subconsciously rolled to the side and continued to curl up.This action disturbed Lu Shang, who was sleeping lightly. People who have not woken up have poor self-control, and he is no exception. He frowned and reached out to grab the stove beside him, and he was satisfied only after sticking it in his arms.

The hug was so tight that when I woke up the next day, there was an embarrassing situation.Lu Shang is a normal person, and he will have the same reactions that ordinary men would have in the morning. Due to his health, he has lived a life of abstinence for many years, but that does not mean that he will be different from others in this respect.Li Sui didn't realize it at first, but when he realized it, he broke into a sweat from embarrassment, he froze on the bed, Lu Shang didn't move, and he didn't dare to move.Staring in a daze, the phrase "flesh compensation" that the shop owner said intentionally or unintentionally last night emerged in his mind.

God, why is he so proficient in this kind of vocabulary when he doesn't understand serious knowledge!

After a while, Lu Shang must have woken up, with the back of his hand resting on his forehead, wondering what he was thinking.Li Sui was up and down, and the small thoughts in his heart began to stir again. He had been in the smoky place of the bar for a long time, and he had seen some restricted-level scenes. In addition, Lu Shang had mentioned nurturing half-jokingly before. Can't help but worry about whether he should be a little bit self-conscious... He turned over as if he had exhausted his courage, raised his head and met Lu Shang's eyes, and avoided his eyes in embarrassment, like swimming fish A sharp stab was about to get under the quilt, but Lu Shang quickly grabbed his chin and lifted it up.

Lu Shang stared at him, his eyes were clearly asking "what do you want to do".

Li Sui's upturned face blushed, very red, his eyes were big, and he just woke up, Yiyu's black eyes were particularly restless.Seeing him like this, Lu Shang understood what he meant, and immediately smiled. He seldom had great joy or sorrow, and his usual smiles were mostly polite. It was the first time that Li Sui felt his breath up close. Feeling that the information conveyed at this moment is warm and pleasant.

"I'll feel guilty." Lu Shang patted him on the head with a smile, and gave him a step down tolerantly.

Li Sui didn't know if he was guilty or not, but now he was sure that Lu Shang was indeed as Aunt Lu said, he was not a casual person.He seems to have very high requirements for his partner, otherwise he would not have remained single for so many years based on his conditions.

The sound of water came from the bathroom, Li Sui buried his head in the quilt like an ostrich, feeling very embarrassed by his abruptness, but at this moment he was at ease, he didn't seem to be worried that Lu Shang would send him away.

The two got up late, and Aunt Lu cooked them casserole porridge with shrimps and mandarin duck shells, served with wrapped spring pancakes, Li Sui could eat the whole thing in one bite, and his mouth was full of sweet sauce.He always eats very deliciously, which makes others appetizing. Aunt Lu, who is the cook, is even more delighted. Since there is this child in the family, her craftsmanship has hardly been wasted.

Lu Shang has always been restrained, he ate half a bowl of porridge, and gave the rest to Li Sui.

"Boss Lu, won't you be hungry if you eat so little?" Li Sui was puzzled.

Lu Shang didn't intend to explain to him that overeating would cause the digestive system to take up too many resources and make the heart work harder. He just said, "I'm at your age, and I can eat very well."

Li Sui recalled Lu Shang's wolfish look, thinking it was impossible.

Aunt Lu came to inquire about the lunch menu. Lu Shang ordered a few home-cooked dishes and asked her to boil a pot of pear water with rock sugar.They eat together these days, and Lu Shang has gradually noticed that Li Sui's taste is like a child's, he likes desserts, especially pear water, and can drink several bowls at a time.

"Boss Lu is really considerate." Aunt Lu smiled.

Li Sui didn't notice this, took the spring pancakes that Lu Shang handed over, and bit into his mouth: "Will you become fat?"

Lu Shang wiped the sauce from the corner of his mouth for him: "The fatter you look like a man."

Aunt Lu withdrew knowingly.

It was rare to have no work today, and no one came to bother us. The two spent a pleasant afternoon.Lu Shang spends his free time mostly reading books, occasionally resting on a chair, while Li Sui holds his tablet next to him doing quizzes, and occasionally observes Lu Shang.

In two days it will be New Year's Eve, and Lu Shang doesn't pay much attention to the festival, so there is no New Year's atmosphere in the Lu family, but Uncle Yuan has asked for leave, and he just had a grandson in his family.As people get older, they will always be extremely dependent on their relatives. Lu Shang agreed to leave without saying a word, and even drove him to the station himself. These days, the company's driver, Xiao Zhao, is driving him.

Aunt Lu only cooks lunch on Chinese New Year's day, and dinner will be prepared for him in advance, and he can eat it as soon as it is hot. Her family has a family reunion at night, so naturally she has to go home.

In the past, he was alone, so he didn't think there was anything wrong. He just read books and was busy with work. This year, there was one more person in the family. Looking at the darkening sky, Lu Shang seriously considered whether he should buy some New Year's goods.

When it was time for dinner, the tranquility was still broken. Lu Shang received a call and Yan Ke wanted to invite him to dinner.

Li Sui watched him go back to the bedroom to change clothes, followed in two steps: "Do you want to go out?"

Yan Ke's dinner appointment was naturally to discuss the transfer of shares. Lu Shang hadn't planned to take him with him at first, but thinking of the gun incident that Zuo Chao had told him that day, he thought it would be safer to bring him with him.

Yan Ke and Lu Shang are about the same age, and have similar family experiences, but their personalities are completely different.Yan Ke is a world-weary literary youth who aspires to be a painter. He doesn't care much about business affairs, and therefore doesn't pay much attention to the shares left by his parents. This is why Lu Shang seized the opportunity.

The address is about Hot Spring Villa, on a hot spring mountain in the suburbs. After arriving, Lu Shang found that Sun Mao was also there. Because of the 2000 million favor, he is now obedient to Lu Shang, and Yan Ke sold the shares. He is in the middle It also took a lot of effort.

"What is Li Yan doing recently?" Lu Shang asked as he walked inside.

Sun Mao glanced at Li Sui behind him, and said, "He's been doing quite well recently, I heard that he has opened an international cosmetics company, and even bought a special ship to transport the goods."

Just got the approval and started shipping the goods in a hurry. This kind of period when all aspects are not complete is the most likely to go wrong. Lu Shang has always disagreed with the upstart-like way of doing things of the Li family. Sooner or later.

When they went in, they saw a lot of people, they sat in a small hall, Yan Ke sat in the middle, his hair was a little long, tied behind his head.

"Bringing friends?" Yan Ke smiled straight.

"Come to repay the gift." Lu Shang also smiled, and asked Li Sui to give him the Shitou model in his hand, "I also want to thank Ling Qianjin for giving up her love."

Yan Ke was stunned for a moment, his gaze wandered on Li Sui for a while, and then he realized that when Xu Weilan said that he wanted to borrow his daughter's toy, it turned out to be this one.Yan Ke has always felt that Lu Shang is too rigid and serious, that's why he invited so many friends to accompany him at this gathering. He was born with an excess of romantic cells, and he prided himself on being a lover. The abstinence-like beauty is not pleasing to the eye, but Lu Shang gave him a big one.

"You are really... a blockbuster." Yan Ke searched for a long time but couldn't find a suitable word.

Lu Shang smiled and said to Li Sui, "This is your Uncle Yan."

"Don't, don't, don't..." Yan Ke waved his hands quickly, and Li Sui smiled knowingly, "Brother Yan."

"Hey!" Yan Ke stood up, took out his pocket, took out a stack of US dollars, and stuffed them without counting, "Come here, New Year's money."

"This..." Li Sui was taken aback, he didn't hear that he still had money for calling out to Big Brother, so he turned to consult Lu Shang.

Yan Ke has a straight temper. If he wants to give money, he must want to give it. In his hometown, there is a family member who brings his girlfriend to meet for the first time. Deep recognition.Lu Shang was well aware of this, but he didn't say a word. He just smiled and nodded in agreement: "Take it."
