crossing the dangerous bridge

This blind date made Lin Jianxi physically and mentally exhausted.

The blind date partner is a princess who does her own way, and her mind is full of imagination. Halfway through the meal, the little princess dragged him to the playground.

She doesn't play carousel horses and ferris wheels that symbolize romance in literary dramas, she plays roller coasters and jumping machines.

Lin Jianxi backed away in panic, but was pulled up by the little princess and forced to "give up his life to accompany the gentleman".

When he came down, his legs were weak. Holding on to the fence, he could only feel the thousands of horses galloping in front of him. His head was in a mess, but he couldn't figure out whether the princess was here for a blind date or to assassinate him.

The little princess stood aside obediently, without any cunning when plotting against him, and thoughtfully gave him a bottle of water to calm down: "Brother, is the jumping machine fun?"

"..." Lin Jianxi took a sip in a daze, then spat it into the trash can, and said angrily, "Don't call me that."

"Why brother? Don't you like me?"

"..."

"Brother? Brother, why don't you talk?" The little princess grabbed the hem of his clothes, dangling it, and shouted sweetly, "Brother, please take care of me."

No matter how obedient and sweet this little devil pretends to be now, she can't change the shadow left by her waving devil wings and pulling Lin Jianxi up the jumping machine. Lin Jianxi numbly waved her hand away: "Sister, stay away from brother!" point."

He was still in a daze, and the "brother" after each sentence sounded like a buzzing noise, which made him think in a daze, Jiang Yu's acting like a baby was cuter.

It's just that he has grown up now, and his personality has become more restrained. Sometimes, Lin Jianxi can't even understand what he is thinking, let alone acting like a baby.

He was dizzy, and the girl was also very wronged. She specially obtained an exclusive stunt from her good friend who is known as an emotional expert. She said that she took the boy she liked to ride the jumping machine together, and the excitement would make the boy fall in love with her by mistake. This is the legendary "drawbridge effect".

She didn't expect this so-called exclusive stunt to be useful, and it might even make her little brother fly away with flapping wings.

How many suspension bridges are not suspension bridges, it's a lie.

It turns out that what she thought was right, the first thing Lin Jianxi did when he recovered was to take advantage of the lateness of the sky and bid her farewell without stopping.

He asked the driver to take the princess home, and walked some distance by himself.

When I got home, the sky was just getting dark, and the dark clouds that had been planned for a long time were heavy and heavy over the city, as if an upright conspiracy was brewing.

It's raining.

The rain is getting heavier and heavier, looking around, the world is shrouded in a vast rain curtain.

Lin Jianxi suddenly felt a little bored, and her heart felt like a needle prick.

Such a heavy rainy day for no reason reminded him of a long time ago, the day before the high school entrance examination.

The rain that day was also so violent that people couldn't help but wonder whether the heavy rain would smash the mirror-like world, and whether the senior high school entrance examination would be held as scheduled.

He took out his mobile phone and called Zhao Yunqi. Ms. Zhao said gently that they didn't go out and run around, which made him feel at ease.

Lin Jianxi felt relieved a little, hung up the phone, got into bed, curled up, and closed his eyes.

The bar was full of noise, and the boss glanced at the young man sitting in the corner from time to time, only to feel that he was so sad that he was about to have a sign of hair loss.

Jiang Yu seemed to be drunk again, sitting there motionless, half of his exposed side face was clear and stern, which looked particularly out of place under the dim and ambiguous light of the bar.

Although this iceberg has brought a lot of income to his small bar, the boss still wants to say that he still hopes that this friend can reduce the number of times he comes to the bar.Sometimes, the inadvertent look in Jiang Yu's eyes made him jump with fear, for fear that he would turn into a mysterious wizard in the East and lock up the person hidden in his heart.

He looked like a beast about to be released from its cage, with a dangerous aura exuding from his whole body.

"I said, Jiang, why don't you just go after him?" The boss was puzzled, "It's better to confess everything than to get drunk here alone."

Jiang Yu raised his eyelids, gave him a sleepy look, and asked, "What time is it?"

"03:30."

"At this time," Jiang Yuqu raised his fingers and tapped on the table: "Shouldn't you be dating a certain noble lady?"

"In order to help you get out of the sea of ​​suffering, I took a vacation with my sweetheart." The boss raised his eyebrows proudly.

Jiang Yu smiled. This man, who looks like a melancholy little milk dog, has had affairs with too many people. No matter men or women, they are all "sweetheart babies" to him. He never talks about his love, because those romantic They are all well-designed tricks for desire and money, similar to the product codes posted by the merchants when they leave the factory.

"You have a sweetheart in the address book," Jiang Yu said, "but I only have one brother."

The boss once again showed a shocked expression: "...Wow...Wow...Brother?"

"No blood relationship," Jiang Yu said calmly, "But he always thinks I'm his own brother."

"Okay, I probably get it."

This poor ghost who has a crush on his brother has only one rose in his barren garden, so no matter how others teach him to transplant roses into flowerpots, he dare not reach out to that rose.

The air in their corner was strangely quiet, and for a while, no one spoke again.

Quiet was interrupted by a sudden phone call. Jiang Yu took a breath when he saw the word "Aunt Wang".

Aunt Wang rarely called him unless something happened at home.

The boss watched him pick up the phone, maybe there was only one sentence, and his face changed.

It looks like a thick iceberg has been smashed open, and it looks like it still maintains a complete shape, but it will quickly fall apart when the wind blows.

Jiang Yu got up abruptly and walked out, saying in a low voice, "I'm going back now."

He went back to his residence and took out a brand new wallet from the cabinet. His ID and passport were placed in the wallet. Whenever he wanted to go back to the country, he only needed to bring it back, but it was in the cabinet. Buried here for so long, it was the first time I saw the sun outside.

It was only now that Jiang Yu realized that the road of more than 1 miles was still too far away, so far that no matter how eager he was, he couldn't return to Lin Jianxi's side immediately.

He looked for the nearest flight and the shortest route, but even after boarding the plane, the anxiety in his heart did not decrease by half, but intensified, and he exploded in his internal organs one after another. He smelled a strong smell of blood. After a while Only then did he realize that he had bitten his hand. At first glance, the tooth marks were so deep that it seemed that the bones could be seen.

The passenger sitting next to him might be afraid that he had a sudden neurosis, so he called the flight attendant nervously.

The next afternoon, he finally rushed home.

When he saw Aunt Wang, he didn't bother to say hello, and asked directly, "Where's brother?"

Aunt Wang wiped her eyes: "...in the study."

Without saying a word, Jiang Yu went upstairs in a few steps and rushed to the study.

The study door was closed, and for a moment, Jiang Yu hardly dared to open the door.

He raised his hand and pressed the doorknob heavily.

The door opened, but there was no sign of Lin Jianxi in the study. The next second, he remembered something, and walked behind the large desk, his footsteps were so light that he was afraid of disturbing a dream.

"...Brother." As soon as he opened his mouth, his voice became hoarse. He half knelt down, pushed away the swivel chair that was in the way, carefully pulled Lin Jianxi out of the gap in the desk, and hugged him tightly in his arms.

Lin Jianxi blinked his eyes in a daze, as if suddenly he couldn't recognize who he was, and hesitantly called out: "...Jiang Yu?"

"It's me, I'm back, brother..."

Jiang Yu pulled him into his arms vigorously and cautiously, not wanting to reveal a single gap, for fear that the wind, knife, frost and sword of the world would seep in and carve numerous scars on his beloved.

"Jiang Yu...I..." Lin Jianxi was held in his arms, unable to see anything, only hearing Jiang Yu's rapid heartbeat.

heartbeat.

He opened his mouth in panic, his voice was as weak as a wisp of smoke blowing away with the wind: "I don't have parents anymore...Jiang Yu..."

Jiang Yu felt tears falling on his chest. There were so many, so many, endless streams, like hot magma, burning through his bones. He had no choice but to cry along with him.

He seemed to have heard Lin Jianxi's cry, but he didn't seem to hear it. His soul was like a churning foam, smashed by tears and about to disappear, and a strange but very familiar voice sounded in his ears, as if someone The strong wind tossed the river and sea in his body.

He closed his eyes, in a trance, the well-regulated study room seemed to turn into a deserted wilderness, and he and Lin Jianxi turned into two weeds entwined in the wind.So it was like this, he thought desperately and numbly while hugging Lin Jianxi, so it was like this.

It turned out that the kind of fierce, so powerful that he couldn't control it and could only avoid it far away, and it still haunted him in his dreams after being separated by thousands of miles, made him want to desperately return to Lin Jianxi's side. It turned out that the kind of thin and fragile , Even the broken voice sounds tragic, it is dependent on each other.

For so many years, he has been dependent on him for life.

Why did he understand this now?How dare he imagine and want to escape his own life?

"It's just me...Jiang Yu," Lin Jianxi opened his eyes helplessly. He seemed to be in the sea. When a wave of fate hit him, his boat was torn apart. He tried in vain to hold on to a piece of driftwood, but They still went away with the waves, and he could only fall into the deep sea: "I am the only one left..."

"...You still have me, brother," Jiang Yu said tremblingly, but he couldn't hear his own voice at all, "You still have me, I am Jiang Yu, your...brother."

Everything came to an abrupt end, and it seemed that this kind of relationship could only be maintained between him and him, and there was no turning back.

The time that followed was chaotic.

The police found out the cause of the accident between Lin Zhiming and Zhao Yunqi. It was raining and the road was slippery. They did not speed or go against the road, but their fate was unreasonable. A passing muck truck was seriously overloaded and rolled over when turning. to their car.

The only thing that could be considered as "consolation" was probably that the dirt truck was overloaded too badly. Under this kind of weight, life and death became a matter of an instant, and the two of them left without feeling the pain.

Before the car accident, Zhao Yunqi’s most recent phone call was from Lin Jianxi, and Lin Zhiming’s call was from the construction site. After investigation, it was found out that a work-related accident occurred in a playground that the Lin family was developing recently, and two people died. , the family clamored to see the boss.

"I clearly told them not to go out," Lin Jianxi hid in Jiang Yu's arms, he seemed to distrust anyone overnight, and he could reject all the sorrows in the world by hiding: "...I reminded you."

Why do these annoying adults always refuse to listen to children?

He was always in a dazed state, as if he hadn't woken up from a nightmare. He sent the police away in a daze, and bid farewell to Lin Zhiming and Zhao Yunqi in a daze, in exchange for two square boxes.

Grandparents, grandparents, and a large number of relatives all came. They were dressed in solemn black clothes and huddled in the living room of the Lin family, like street lamps that had been in disrepair.

The old man looked even more haggard. Lin Jianxi told them not to leave, but they left anyway.

They said that fallen leaves always return to their roots, even if they stay now, they will return to their hometown in the future.

In the future... what kind of future will it be?

Lin Jianxi suddenly couldn't figure it out, his brain stopped working, and he could only watch helplessly as the room was full and empty again.

The day the house became empty, Lin Jianxi fell ill.

He has always been a bit squeamish, he can't drink cold water after playing, and he must dry his hair at night when he washes his hair. Although he is very skinny, he can't stand a little bump, and if he doesn't pay attention to it, he will leave bright bruises.

He looked fine, but Jiang Yu knew that a part of his heart was broken.

The doctor couldn't find the cause, but he just kept having a fever.

This happened once when I was a child.

At that time Jiang Yu was still young and couldn't do anything, but now it's turned upside down, Lin Jianxi has become a child, unreasonable and stubborn, Jiang Yu managed to put him to sleep, stayed by his side, not daring to leave a step.

He held Lin Jianxi's hand, his fingers were thin and pale, and looked as if they would snap off.

He faced his hand one finger at a time, and the five fingers met together, and then slowly interlaced, turning into a one-sided interlocking of fingers.

Suddenly there was a slight sound of footsteps outside, Xiong Cui came to the door, saw Lin Jianxi sleeping, he turned quietly and wanted to leave again.

With his weight, it's really not easy to make no sound at all.

Halfway through his turn, the scene he just encountered suddenly played back in his mind.

Jiang Yu held Lin Jianxi's hand, if he read it correctly, it seemed to be a gesture of interlocking fingers?

This is a very ambiguous and lingering gesture, most of the time it is only used between lovers, like parents with children, brothers, even sticky girls, they usually only hold hands.

Between brothers and brothers... will ten fingers be intertwined?

He thought about the scene where he and Xiong Can had their fingers intertwined, and felt his scalp tingle. It was just a pure imagination, and he was so numb that he wanted to drag Xiong Can over and beat him up.

Xiong Cui turned around cautiously again, knocked on the door lightly, and saw Jiang Yu raised his head, he beckoned for Jiang Yu to come out.

The two walked outside silently, Xiong Cui let out a sigh of relief, hesitated again and again, and finally asked tentatively: "Jiang Yu, you treat Lin Lin..."

"It's just what you think," Jiang Yu said indifferently, "I like him."

Xiong Cui sucked back the breath just now: "..."

This incident was unbelievable, but when I calmed down and thought about it carefully, it seemed so reasonable.

If he didn't like it, why did Jiang Yu wait for Lin Jianxi?And why should he take care of his brother in every detail?

In this way, those things that seem to be out of bounds for the brothers are all easy to explain.

"But," Xiong Cui felt that the next words were a bit difficult to say, but he insisted on finishing: "Your brother is only you now, so, Jiang Yu, you should understand, right? Can you not tell him... first Don't tell him, we'll talk about it later, okay?"

Although he doesn't know how long it will be in the future.

Jiang Yu glanced at him, lowered his eyelids, and stared at the lawn at his feet. During this time, no one cared about repairing them. He was going crazy, and he easily missed his ankles.

"I know."

Xiong Cui suddenly felt that Jiang Yu's voice sank, as if something heavy had fallen on it, which slowed down his speaking speed.

"I won't tell him," Jiang Yu said in a very soft voice, word by word, like a sigh: "How dare I scare him."
