Drowning Reborn

Liu Ye was very efficient. He sorted out the script the next day and sent it to Jiang Zechen—after all, it was just a ten-minute final homework for a freshman acting class, and it didn't need to be very clever in terms of length and quality.After getting the script, Jiang Zechen immediately summoned the team members to study the script and assign roles. He was so busy that he simply forgot about his newly appointed lover.

In fact, although the relationship has changed from brothers to lovers, there is not much change in Jiang Zechen's heart. He has long been used to the ambiguous way of getting along with Jiang Zehan from childhood to adulthood, and he has long been used to Jiang Zehan calling him at any time , cared about every aspect of his life, and sometimes suddenly remembered that he and Jiang Zehan were already lovers. Jiang Zechen always had an unreal feeling. He probably hadn’t gotten rid of the role of "brother" and didn't know "lover" How to play this new identity.

Jiang Zehan's several invitations were all rejected by Jiang Zechen on the grounds that he was busy with his final homework. After finally getting off work on Friday afternoon, Jiang Zehan couldn't wait to drive to B Film University, intending to pick up his lover who had just confessed but was still estranged. Going home, I officially "do" everything that needs to be done—unexpectedly, I met Jiang Zechen's roommate Feng Hao downstairs in the dormitory, and was told that the guy had already packed his things at noon and went home.

——Yes, go home, not to Jiang's house, but to the "home" that Mrs. Jiang bought newly.

Jiang Zehan didn't know how much willpower he used to restrain his irritability. He politely said goodbye to Feng Hao and returned to the car. He immediately dialed Jiang Zechen's mobile phone. When the call was connected, Jiang Zechen was accompanying Mrs. Jiang Visit the furniture store.

"Yeah? I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you!" Jiang Zechen slumped on the soft sofa, beat his legs, glanced at Mrs. Jiang who was talking with the shopping guide enthusiastically, and said apologetically, " There is no way, my mother was so excited, she kept urging me to go home when I knew I had no class on Friday afternoon, I couldn't bear it, so I went back... and... I didn't expect you to pick me up at school I... next time I will definitely tell you!"

——It's not just a matter of telling or not... Jiang Zehan took a deep breath, but didn't speak out what was in his heart. He just said that he tried to keep his tone gentle, "So, when will you come back?"

"This... I don't know." Jiang Zechen's answer was very honest, "You may not know how obsessed my mother is with shopping. I think she may go shopping on Saturdays and Sundays... I will go shopping with her. It's been a whole afternoon, she's exhausted, but she still doesn't seem to have any intention of stopping..." Jiang Zechen's voice became sad, "It's just too scary!"

Jiang Zehan smiled lightly, his younger brother's broken complaints reminded him of the wrinkled face immediately, and then, the desire to see each other became stronger, making him wish to fly to him immediately, hugging He reassured.

"I miss you very much, Xiaochen..." Jiang Zehan sighed softly, his tone was low and affectionate, "I want to see you..."

Jiang Zechen held the mobile phone, blinked his eyes, and his heartbeat suddenly became a little disordered.He doesn't know what it's like to worry about another person, so he can't empathize with Jiang Zehan, but he doesn't think he hates this feeling, this feeling of being on the tip of his heart all the time.

——Although the former Jiang Zehan has been talking about him, but he is restrained and cautious, careful not to cross that line, and has never been so frank and touching with just a few words like now extreme.

"I'm sorry, I probably won't be able to visit you this weekend... After all, I promised my mother a long time ago." Jiang Zechen was a little embarrassed, and just wanted to comfort Jiang Zehan, but heard Mrs. Jiang calling his name, as if to ask him Views.

Knowing that Mrs. Jiang had a big prejudice against Jiang Zehan at the moment, Jiang Zechen didn't want her to know that he was talking with Jiang Zehan at the moment, so he quickly said to him, "My mother is looking for me", hung up the phone, and walked towards Mrs. Jiang.

On the other side of the phone, Jiang Zehan was holding the mobile phone with a busy tone, his eyes were dim, and his fingertips holding the steering wheel were so hard that they turned slightly white.

In the end, under Jiang Zechen's insistence, Mrs. Jiang finally finalized the style of the bedding. Jiang Zechen breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly proposed that it was already late and wanted to go home for dinner, and promised to continue shopping with her tomorrow. Mrs. Jiang, who was reluctant to part with her, dragged her out of the furniture store.

Mrs. Jiang was in a good mood. This was the first time she had a real home of her own after she got married. She felt comfortable and happy in everything she did. She immediately decided to cook a sumptuous dinner by herself and spend an afternoon shopping with her as a reward. son, but also to celebrate the "housewarming".

As soon as he got home, Mrs. Jiang went into the kitchen to get busy. Looking at his energetic mother, Jiang Zechen fell down in admiration. Now he just wants to sit on the sofa and rest his overworked legs, and then for A moment of silence in advance for the foreseeable torment on Saturday and Sunday.

Soon, the smell of rice came from the kitchen. While nibbling on an apple, Jiang Zechen lazily changed channels with the remote control. Just when he was falling asleep, he heard the sound of the doorbell.

Mrs. Jiang, who was still unable to get away from the kitchen, called Jiang Zechen to open the door. Jiang Zechen didn't think much, and ran to open the door with the half-eaten apple dangling. Unexpectedly, he froze as soon as he opened the door.

The lips were suddenly covered, the tip of the tongue swept across the lips, sucked lightly and pulled away, Jiang Zehan ended the sweet and sour apple-smelling kiss, smiling like a contented cat lying under the sun.

"You, why are you here?" Jiang Zechen was startled, and looked around reflexively, for fear of being discovered, he was relieved until he was sure that no one was peeping, and glared at Jiang Zehan, "Didn't we agree, Be careful?"

Jiang Zehan ignored Jiang Zechen's light scolding, just smiled and rubbed his hair, "We haven't seen each other for nearly a week, and you don't plan to come to see me on weekends, so I can only come here with a cheeky face."

"Mom won't be very happy to see you." Jiang Zechen muttered - now, Mrs. Jiang still recognizes Jiang Zehan's plan to entrap her son's shares, and whenever he is mentioned, his nose is not nose and eyes are not eyes, which makes Jiang Zechen very upset have no choice.

Sure enough, before Jiang Zechen finished speaking, Mrs. Jiang's shrill voice came over, "Jiang Zehan?!"

Jiang Zechen shrank his shoulders, turned his head to look at Madam Jiang who was standing behind the two of them wiping her wet hands and frowning. After being surprised, she obviously did not welcome Jiang Zehan's coming into the room at all, and her eyes were so sharp that Jiang Zechen had no doubt that she planned to Jiang Zehan refused.

"Mom, I was wrong a few days ago. Don't take it to heart. I made a special trip to apologize today." Before Mrs. Jiang could speak, Jiang Zehan apologized first. His tone was sincere and serious, and he seemed absolutely sincere. "I just heard that you and Xiaochen have misunderstood me all the time. I was too excited for a while. Please forgive me."

As the saying goes, don’t hit a smiling person with your hand. Mrs. Jiang has been with Jiang’s father for so long, so she knows what it means to pretend, and she also knows that it is not good for herself or her son to completely turn against Jiang Zehan. The last move was just a moment of anger , I didn't want to see Jiang Zehan's attitude of a complete winner, so he kept talking, and he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed after he calmed down.Now that Jiang Zehan gave her the ladder to step down with a very good attitude, Mrs. Jiang weighed it up, even if she was not very reconciled, her complexion could not help but ease.

Seeing that Mrs. Jiang was no longer so harsh, Jiang Zechen immediately put it away, "Hey, brother, have you had dinner? We just came back from shopping, and my mother is cooking. You know how good my mother's craftsmanship is. Do you want to stay?" Come down for dinner?"

Jiang Zechen asked the question knowingly, and Jiang Zehan immediately understood, smiled and said politely, and entered the door very quickly.

Mrs. Jiang gave Jiang Zechen a look of resentment, and then returned to the kitchen with a cold face. Jiang Zechen heaved a sigh of relief, closed the door, and blinked teasingly at Jiang Zehan, "I have never heard you call so sincerely. 'Mother'."

"I treat her like a mother-in-law now, so the 'mother' is naturally very sincere." Jiang Zehan chuckled.

"What kind of mother-in-law, call her mother-in-law!" Jiang Zechen rolled his eyes at him, walked back to the sofa, and threw the half of the yellowed apple in his hand into the trash can.And Jiang Zehan looked at Jiang Zechen, then at the kitchen, and finally gave Jiang Zechen a wink, then turned around and entered the kitchen under his dumbfounded gaze.

Jiang Zechen sat on the sofa and struggled for a while, but finally couldn't resist his curiosity, he touched the kitchen door lightly and planned to listen to the corner, and then heard Mrs. Jiang ordering Jiang Zehan to do things unceremoniously, and his expression became tangled immediately up.

Mrs. Jiang also seemed to be quite tangled. From time to time, she glanced at Jiang Zehan, who was seriously chopping vegetables, with strange eyes, as if she couldn't understand why he suddenly changed his attitude, and even pretended to be a little obsequious.While Jiang Zehan took advantage of Madam Jiang not paying attention, she smiled at Jiang Zechen who was peeping at the kitchen door, and silently uttered a sentence - mother-in-law is really hard to serve.

Jiang Zechen covered his face, feeling that his anti-thunder index was a bit weak, and his health bar suddenly dropped a lot, so he turned his head silently and left the kitchen, intending to go back to the living room to take a rest.

Although Jiang Zehan's culinary skills are not very good, but he is still fully competent. With his help, Mrs. Jiang quickly finished a table of meals, and her attitude towards Jiang Zehan has changed back to the past when she was at Jiang's house. The hypocrisy and obscenity.

——It's not because Jiang Zehan's performance is so good that Madam Jiang's attitude is relaxed, but because his performance is too abnormal. The so-called abnormality is a monster. The meanness and dissatisfaction were also restrained, for fear of leaving some excuses for the other party inadvertently.

Therefore, even though Jiang Zehan put down his body and tried his best to ease the relationship with Madam Jiang, and was even good at dancing at the dinner table, he was almost flattering, but in the end, he was still politely and resolutely asked away by Madam Jiang after dinner. Now, the only thing that can be consoled is that Jiang Zechen ignored Mrs. Jiang's sharp eyes and volunteered to "see off the guests".

It's a pity that the reason for Jiang Zechen's plan to "see off" is obviously not because of his longing for his lover, but because he intends to make fun of the other party's "poor tricks to please his mother-in-law".

"You are really frustrated tonight!" Thinking of Jiang Zehan's flattery and Mrs. Jiang's vigilance at night, Jiang Zechen couldn't help smiling, "I think my mother is almost scared to death by you! I thought What kind of bad idea are you trying to come up with!"

"It's true that I'm making a bad idea, but I want to hook up with his son." Jiang Zehan shrugged his shoulders and replied innocently.

"Who told you not to behave like this in the past? Didn't you already have a plan for me? Why didn't you think of trying to please my mother as soon as possible?" Jiang Zechen blinked teasingly.

"Because... I've known for a long time that she bought another house in City B, and I plan to let her move out by herself earlier, so don't disturb us by messing around." Jiang Zehan paused, his tone getting darker, "I didn't expect that , you also moved out with her...Obviously we grew up together, and she has been ignoring you in the United States for more than ten years, but you finally chose to be with her..."

"Uh..." Jiang Zechen was embarrassed and scratched his hair, "After all, she is still my mother, and I am almost the only one left in her world, I... can't leave her alone and let her down This kind of thing... In fact, my mother is still very good to me."

"I am your elder brother, and you are the only one in my world. Why can you leave me?" Jiang Zehan was a little helpless. He didn't want to compete with Mrs. Jiang, but he just felt a little reconciled—after all, he was Jiang Zechen paid even more.

Jiang Zechen thought for a while, "Because you are a man, brother, you are stronger, and you still have the Jiang family."

"Xiaochen." Suddenly standing still, Jiang Zehan turned his head and looked at Jiang Zechen with burning eyes, his voice was so soft that he couldn't even hear any emotional meaning, "Sometimes I feel that if it's not me, but another person, You don't hate the intimacy with him, and he has been pursuing you so that you have no way to refuse, so you will accept him, right?"

Jiang Zechen froze for a moment, not knowing whether to say "yes" or "no".He actually didn't want to deceive Jiang Zehan, but although the former is a fact, it seems... not a fact that can be told to his lover. At least Jiang Zechen knows that if he answers "yes" at this time, it is purely looking for trouble.

"What are you thinking about, brother, am I such a casual person?" Jiang Zechen blinked his eyes—he didn't expect that one day he would coax Jiang Zehan like a soft girl who likes to listen to love, which made him feel three Views are distorted.

Hearing Jiang Zechen's answer, Jiang Zehan didn't say anything, just raised his hand and stroked his hair, but those eyes that were still shining in the dark seemed to indicate that he understood everything and saw everything in his eyes .

Jiang Zechen suddenly felt guilty.

He felt that he might be a bit of a scumbag. Jiang Zechen always felt that he was betraying or cheating because of the unequal emotional contribution. Jiang Zehan had invested too much emotion in him, so much that he couldn't return the same emotion at all, even he accepted this paragraph. The most important reason for the relationship is that I don't know how to refuse, and I feel that the other party is quite in line with my aesthetics and appetite.

——Jiang Zechen does like Jiang Zehan a little bit, not only as a younger brother and family member, but also as a man who likes another charming man who attracts him very much, but this level of liking is not enough for him Willing to pay a high price.

Jiang Zechen never thought that he and Jiang Zehan would go on together for a long time. In his eyes, the so-called love is an existence that will be disillusioned in an instant, so he made a condition on the first day of dating, to hide it from everyone, Because he only wants to enjoy the fun brought by the relationship, but he doesn't want to spend his time dealing with all kinds of obstacles and setbacks that will hit the sky and the sky once they are together, and he doesn't want to bear the consequences and responsibilities after the relationship.

—Perhaps, it was a bit too selfish for him to think only of making himself relaxed and happy.

That person is Jiang Zehan, the person who occupied the most important position in his life in his previous life and this life, so Jiang Zechen didn't want to see him disappointed and sad, and couldn't refuse his persistent request, but, holding on like this Is it too irresponsible to communicate with ambiguous thoughts and hope that the other party will be like the "lovers" in his previous life for a while, and then the relationship will fade after the relationship, and finally break up peacefully?Is it... This is actually a kind of harm to Jiang Zehan?

Jiang Zechen hesitated, hesitated, and regretted, but there was nothing he could do.

——At this point, we can only take one step at a time.
