crossing the dangerous bridge

When Lin Jianxi woke up, he stared at the familiar overhead light for a while, then slowly sat up and glanced at the sky outside the window.

The afterglow of the setting sun passed through the gaps in the curtains and cast a ray of golden light on the floor. It turned out that it was already evening.

It seems that he slept for a long time.

He lazily got out of bed and went to the study to check the test results.

It was a little surprising that Jiang Yu was not in the study, only the book of questions was opened on the desk, which was filled with pen writing.

The strokes are wanton and sharp, but not messy, and he doesn't need to try to identify them at all.

After checking the answers, he closed the book and sat in the study for a while. Not long after, someone knocked on the door. He turned his head and met Shang Jiang Yu's calm eyes.

"It's time to eat, brother."

"……Um."

After dinner, two brats from the next door ran over and asked them to go out to play.

"Lin Lin! Jiang Yu!" Xiong Can popped his head out of the window, "Let's go, go out and play!"

Lin Jianxi: "I don't want to go."

Xiong Can was not discouraged, and turned his head to look at Zhao Yunqi skillfully: "Auntie, Lin Lin has been bored at home for many days, why don't you let him go out with us to play, if he doesn't go out to play, he will be moldy."

Zhao Yunqi thought for a while and said, "That's right, you should go out to get some fresh air, every day at home is boring."

"Do not……"

"Xiao Yu, take your brother out to play." Ms. Zhao gave the order gently and without rejection.

"..."

Lin Jianxi had no choice but to swallow the word "boring".

The commercial street was bustling day and night. A group of energetic adolescent boys and girls rushed into the crowd like runaway huskies, eating and drinking, crushing them all the way. When they saw a newly opened video game city, Hulala got in.

Entering the door, a group of people divided into multiple ways, and each formed a team to play the game they wanted to play. Only the brothers Lin Jianxi and Jiang Yu didn't want to play anything. The two walked to the rest area and sat down tacitly. After 5 minutes, they were dragged away by each person.

"Lin Jianxi, let's go dancing."

"Dude go shoot."

They were dragged in opposite directions from left to right, as if premeditated, Lin Jianxi turned his head knowingly, and his eyes happened to meet Jiang Yu's.

Jiang Yu's eyelids twitched, and he turned around as usual.

Although it was only for a moment, Lin Jianxi still saw his familiar, deep eyes.

After being pulled to the dancing machine, the young master came back to his senses: "I don't know how to dance."

"It's okay, I'll teach you."

The girl stood on the dancing machine, smiling brightly: "Lin Jianxi, I'll teach you, you dance with me, okay?"

The tall and straight boys lined up in front of the shooting machine, which immediately attracted a lot of attention.

"Jiang Yu, you've recovered."

The boy patted Jiang Yu's shoulder and said earnestly: "Don't think about your brother, your brother has serious business to do now. Okay, let's throw a ball?"

Jiang Yu glanced at him, then looked away lightly, looking at the basketball in his hand: "OK."

It was said to be a game, but someone was not in the mood for shooting at all, and his shooting percentage was extremely low. Fortunately, he was handsome, and the girls who looked at his face didn't mind his skills at all, and stood beside him to cheer for him.

At the end of the time, the boy looked at his miserable scorer and said with a smile: "What's the matter with you, brother, your brother took your soul away?"

Jiang Yu didn't speak, but shook his head slightly.

"Brother, do you want to add a WeChat?" The waiting sister saw that they had finished typing, and came over to say hello.

"No, sisters," the boy put Jiang Yu's shoulders on his shoulders and pulled him back: "Our brother is still young, only 15 years old, why don't you add me on WeChat? I'm almost an adult."

"It's okay, sister can wait for brother to grow up."

Jiang Yu kept silent, and the young lady also saw that he was not easy to deal with, so she simply gave up on him and started chatting with the boy.

Jiang Yu suddenly felt that he couldn't breathe, and walked out involuntarily. When he recovered, he had already walked outside the video game city.

A gentle night breeze blew, he looked at the streets with people coming and going, and thought of his and Lin Jianxi's home in his previous life.

He wants to go home.

But it was no longer his home.

After an unknown amount of time, a group of talents came out from the video game city.

"I didn't play enough today, I will come again next time."

"Forget it, I'm exhausted..."

"I'm hungry, do you want to eat?"

"I'm hungry too."

"Hungry plus one."

"Then let's go have a supper."

"no problem."

A group of people cheered again, cheered up, and pulled Jiang Yu, who had left the army, back into the team.

"Jiang Yu," Lin Jianxi glanced at him and asked, "Are you tired?"

"It's okay." Jiang Yu replied hoarsely, walking beside him: "Brother, you..."

"Ok?"

Jiang Yu wanted to ask, did you promise that girl?

But when the words came to his mouth, he couldn't say anything, so he had to swallow the words back, like swallowing a cold knife with the smell of rust.

"When are we going back, I'm sleepy."

Lin Jianxi bent his eyes, "When do you want to go back?"

"Now." Jiang Yu blurted out and looked at him fixedly. After a while, he pleaded and added: "...Go back now, is that okay?"

"No!" Xiong Can stepped in: "Lin Lin still wants to eat supper with us, Jiang Xiaoyu, if you are sleepy, you should go back first, what is going on if you can't find your way home without your brother .”

Jiang Yu: "..."

At this moment, he really wanted to unscrew Xiong Can's dog's head off.

He tensed his jaw anxiously, and called out again tentatively: "Brother?"

"Well," Lin Jianxi suddenly grabbed his wrist: "Forget it, let's go back after eating something."

The depression that Jiang Yu mentioned dissipated in an instant because of his touch: "...Okay."

The supper was settled at a barbecue restaurant, and the waiting time was a bit long. Jiang Yu leaned on Lin Jianxi's shoulder in the name of sleepiness.

He closed his eyes, and he blocked out the voices of other people. He could hear Lin Jianxi's slight laughter, and the sound of blood flowing through his veins through a layer of clothes and thin skin.

He became inexplicably hot and wanted to bite this person very much.

I want to be embedded in his flesh and blood and become one with him.

When the barbecue was served, a group of people started eating in a hurry. Jiang Yu was not in the mood to eat, so he only ordered a glass of orange juice, which he didn't finish until the end of the show.

After eating and drinking enough, the crowd finally dispersed.

"Lin Jianxi," the girl who had pulled Lin Jianxi to dance before came over and said goodbye to him nonchalantly: "See you at the beginning of school."

"See you at the beginning of school." Lin Jianxi waved his hand.

After everyone else left, Xiong Can asked, "Lin Lin, are you two making it?"

"No."

"Why, what's wrong with her, you don't even like big beauties at the school flower level?"

"It's not her problem, it's my problem."

Xiong Can was full of suspicion: "What's your question?"

The three pairs of eyes looked at him together, Lin Jianxi smiled and said unhurriedly, "I don't like girls."

Xiong Cui and Xiong Can: "?"

Before the two of them had time to ask the doubts in their hearts, they heard a cracking sound, and the two of them turned their eyes dullly, and saw Jiang Yu crushing the glass.

The two brothers immediately recovered from the shock of "the brother who grew up suddenly coming out of the closet", and hurriedly shouted: "Waiter! Is there a towel?!"

Jiang Yu didn't know how much strength he used, the broken glass was directly stuck into his hand, and the blood flowed out happily. He didn't seem to realize it, but just looked at Lin Jianxi in a daze.

He leaned over, and Jiang Yu could even smell the faint sweet orange fragrance on his body from the choking bloody smell.

Lin Jianxi picked out the broken glass stuck in his flesh, took out a bunch of tissues, and pressed them on Jiang Yu's hand, "Get up, go to the hospital."

Jiang Yu was in a daze, like a lost puppy, only knowing to follow his footsteps, not knowing where he was going.

It wasn't until he was stitched up by the doctor that he woke up like a dream, and hissed: "It hurts."

"You still know it hurts." Lin Jianxi knocked him on the head gently.

Jiang Yu: "..."

"Hey, the kid finally woke up." The doctor smiled and said, "You didn't respond when I disinfected you. I thought you were asleep. It's okay, the pain will pass after a while, bear with it."

Jiang Yu: "..."

He suddenly felt very wronged, so wronged that he couldn't stand any pain, "Brother, it hurts."

"Then what do you want my brother to do?" Lin Jianxi sighed, "I can't help you share the burden."

Jiang Yu raised his eyes and repeated again: "Brother, it hurts."

He seemed to be in so much pain that he was almost in tears.

Lin Jianxi thought for a while, dragged the chair to his side, and hugged him into his arms.

"It won't hurt if you don't look at it." He patted Jiang Yu's head.

Jiang Yu was crying, shaking all over from crying, the doctor had to press his wrist hard, fearing that he would shake too much, and he would make a wrong injection, and he would give the impression of a quack doctor for nothing: "Oh, your brother looks tall. Tall and big, why is he so afraid of pain and shaking so much, how can I sew it up. Hurry up and coax him, don’t let him shake.”

Lin Jianxi: "..."

There were more and more questions in his mind, when did Jiang Yu become so afraid of pain?

Jiang Yu stopped crying after crying for a while, but he might feel embarrassed and kept leaning on Lin Jianxi's shoulder without raising his head.

The doctor sewed up the stitches smoothly, admired his beautiful stitches, and then wrote out a list of the anti-inflammatory drugs that should be taken and the mouth that should be avoided, "Spicy food is strictly prohibited, do not touch water, do not shake hands, If it’s inconvenient to take a shower, ask your brother to help you.”

Jiang Yu: "..."

Lin Jianxi also: "..."

The eldest young master recalled the unbearable past, blinked uncomfortably, but still replied: "Oh."

After a long day of tossing and returning home, it was already very late at night, only the lights in the yard were still on.

The two quietly returned to the room, turned on the light, and Lin Jianxi sat lazily on the sofa, squeezed Jiang Yu's hand, looked at it, and asked, "How did you crush the cup?"

Jiang Yu: "The quality of the glass is not good."

Lin Jianxi pulled him in front of her, "Jiang Yu, look at me."

Jiang Yusheng looked around for a while, as if he was afraid that his gaze would overwhelm him, before gently lowering his eyelids and looking at him cautiously: "Brother."

Lin Jianxi originally wanted to ask him whether he was shocked when he heard his brother come out, or because of something else, but when he saw his reaction, he suddenly didn't want to ask anything.

"Forget it," he said, "do you want to take a shower, do you want me to help you?"

Jiang Yu immediately replied, "No need."

"Ok?"

"I can do it by myself. Anyway, it's my left hand, so it won't affect much."

"Ok."

Just in case, Lin Jianxi went downstairs to find plastic wrap, and wrapped it around Jiang Yu's hands.

"This way, there should be no water," Lin Jianxi looked at Jiang Yusai with satisfaction over the mummy's hand, and pushed him into the bathroom: "Go take a bath."

Jiang Yu stared blankly at the door closing, and after a while, he belatedly remembered that this was in his brother's room.

This is my brother's bathroom.

Just thinking of this, the blood in his body flowed impatiently, he licked his dry lips, completely resigned to his body's reaction.

He can hide his secrets, but he can't hide his instincts. No matter how hard he restrains himself from getting close, his body still wants him.

Jiang Yu took a long time in the shower.

Lin Jianxi didn't wait for him, and went to the guest room to wash himself. After washing, he returned to the room and threw himself directly into the bed.

That night, he had a very strange dream.

In the dream, there was a round puppy who would follow him no matter where he went, and he couldn’t shake it off no matter how hard he tried. Finally, he got tired and sat in front of the puppy, stroking its head.

"Whose puppy are you, why have you been following me?"

The puppy didn't speak, just raised his head and rubbed against his hand hard.

"You go to your master," he said in the dream, "I'm leaving."

The puppy barked anxiously, and finally said: "But you are my master."

Lin Jianxi was startled awake.

If he heard it right, it seemed to be Jiang Yu's voice.

Strange, he wondered wildly why he always dreamed that Jiang Yu turned into a puppy, and whether he had a grudge against Jiang Yu.

He lay down for a while, and when the impression of the dream faded in his mind, he got up and went to the next door to see Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu was still sleeping, maybe because of his hand injury, he was not sleeping well, his brows were tightly frowned, as if he was having a very bad dream.

The air conditioner in the room was turned on very low, and Jiang Yu's exposed hands were as cold as ice sculptures. Lin Jianxi touched his hand, picked up the remote control, and turned up the temperature of the air conditioner.

He confirmed that there was nothing unexpected about Jiang Yu's hand, and he turned around to leave, but someone grabbed the corner of his clothes unexpectedly.

"Brother..." Jiang Yu hadn't woken up yet, begging vaguely, "Don't go...don't leave me..."

There was great pain in his voice, and his tone trembled: "Don't go... I was wrong."

"..."

Lin Jianxi froze in place, his thoughts were in chaos.

He thought, what did Jiang Yu do wrong in this life, to apologize to him even in his dream?

No way... He didn't do anything wrong. Jiang Yu in this life doesn't like him, so he shouldn't be in such pain, and he shouldn't admit his mistakes to him. The only one who wants to admit his mistakes to him is the one who stayed in the previous life... Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu's various abnormalities were connected together, and the answers pointed to made him dare not continue thinking.

He slowly opened Jiang Yu's hand, and Jiang Yu not only refused to let go, but also grabbed him even harder.

His wound couldn't hold him so hard, and it gradually tended to split open. Lin Jianxi smelled blood again, but Jiang Yu, who was still crying in his arms last night, seemed to feel no pain at this moment. As if, clutching him tightly, for fear that if he let go, he would never be able to catch him again.

Lin Jianxi shouted irritably: "Jiang Yu!"

His hand loosened.

Jiang Yu opened his eyes suddenly, and sat up in panic: "Brother!"

After recovering his senses, Jiang Yu first saw the mottled blood on Lin Jianxi's clothes, and the nightmares from the past flooded his eyes again, his pupils shrank suddenly, and his heartbeat forgot to continue.

The next moment, he felt the pain coming from the palm of his hand. He looked down and saw the split wound on his palm. His first reaction was not "how did the wound break?"

"...You're fine," Jiang Yu lowered his head, as if talking to himself, and said softly, "That's great."

Lin Jianxi opened his mouth, but made no sound.

The silent atmosphere made Jiang Yu completely awake, and he repeated what he said just now in his heart uncomfortably.

You're all right, that's great.

This is wrong, he finally realized the most fatal mistake, Jiang Yu, who knew nothing about it, shouldn't have said such a thing.

He should complain that the wound is open and hurts, he should wonder why his brother is in his room, why his clothes are stained with blood, and he should not ignore his wound anyway.

Jiang Yu raised his head blankly, meeting Lin Jianxi's eyes.

"……elder brother?"

Lin Jianxi took a few steps back in silence, then turned around suddenly, opened the door and ran out.

The sound of hurried footsteps grew further and further away.

Jiang Yu forgot everything.

Regardless of any pretense, he jumped out of the bed and chased after him. He chased out the door. At this time, Lin Jianxi had already run to the entrance. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he raised his eyes, glanced at Jiang Yu, and opened the door again.

Gorgeous white light spilled in, and he seemed to melt into the light.

"elder brother--"

Jiang Yu's liver and gallbladder were torn apart, and a heavy bloody smell suddenly appeared in his throat, and he chased after him without hesitation.

The wind blowing up while running whistled past his ears. Lin Jianxi thought a lot, but he didn't think about anything. In the reckless running, people can't control their brains at all. You can see what your brain wants you to see What must be seen, scenes of the past, like the scenery quickly retreating from the window when taking a train, appeared in line in his mind, Jiang Yu in the previous life and Jiang Yu in this life, dumped sand and stones all over the place The lifeless face buried in sand and stones, the duckling that has been stiff for a long time, the floating sea, the white light that suddenly appears when it is about to die——

The chaotic time gathered into a devastating storm, sweeping away all thoughts, he was suddenly pushed to the ground by someone, and he saw the clear sky.

"Don't run away..." Jiang Yu tried his best to hold him down, speaking intermittently, his voice was hoarse like a rusted pendulum: "Don't run away..."

Lin Jianxi was panting, his heart was beating violently, and there were bursts of harsh busy sounds in his ears, and he could hardly hear what Jiang Yu was saying.

"Why do you always run so fast?" Jiang Yu leaned over and leaned on his heart: "...I can't catch up with you, I can't catch up with you..."

Not long after, Lin Jianxi felt that the clothes on his heart were wet, Jiang Yu seemed to cry all the tears in two lifetimes, and cried violently and silently while holding him.

The deduced answer became reality, and Lin Jianxi almost forgot to think.

He slowly raised his hand and touched Jiang Yu's hair: "You are... Jiang Yu."
