thirty

Lu Jie's heartbeat slowed down by half a beat, "...I don't understand what you mean."

"Mei Lu, I have hinted at you many times," Shen Xian said calmly, "I already have a lover and a family, why are you always obsessed with no regrets? You don't call it love, it's called possessiveness."

Lu Jie lowered his head, smiled for a long time, "If it was possessiveness, I would have gone crazy long ago, much crazier than a magpie, heh...it really is useless for me to be number one in the world."

Shen Xian smiled lazily, "You can make Shi Lei scramble for four or five days by moving your fingers, what's the useless?"

Lu Jie laughed at himself, "How do you know it's mine?"

Shen Xian knocked out a cigarette from the cigarette case and put it in his mouth. Lu Jie took out the lighter, but Shen Xian waved his hand not to let him light it for himself. He just chewed on the cigarette butt and said vaguely, "Guess."

"...Then you really know how to guess," Lu Jie sat on the sofa, playing with the lighter in his hand, the brand new Givenchy lighter, Shen Xian's birthday is coming soon, this was originally intended to be a birthday present for him, but look Like this, it is estimated that it will be difficult to send it out.

"Meilu," Shen Xian let out a long breath, and said lightly, "You are still so young, you have plenty of time to fall in love, although you can't find someone as perfect as me, but ordinary people There are beauties all over the street, but I think Dou Zheng is pretty good..."

"Just because I like you doesn't mean I'll like other men," Lu Jie interrupted him, "Don't be in such a hurry to get married, even if you reject me, it's just a failure of first love. I won't jump off a building or I can't hang myself, I'm not as fragile as you think."

Although the children couldn't understand what they said, but seeing the serious expressions of the two adults, it was estimated that the problem was serious, so the two children lowered their voices and played silently.

There was silence in the ward, no one spoke anymore, everyone was an adult, it was enough to be rejected once, too much entanglement was really out of class.

After an unknown amount of time, the door of the ward was pushed open, and Dou Zheng appeared majestically at the door, "Wow, nephews, guess what good things I brought!!!"

The two children were suddenly pleasantly surprised, and shouted, they rushed towards Uncle Douzi.Recently, Xian's father has been wilting, and Stone's father is as busy as a spinning top. The only joy in life is the omnipotent Uncle Douzi.

Dou Zheng picked up Tongtong, threw it into the sky, caught it firmly, and kissed him on the face, "Little nephew, do you miss me?"

"Think!!!" Tongtong giggled.

Dou Zheng took out a kaleidoscope from his trouser pocket and handed it to Bingbing, "Uncle Douzi worked so hard to get this treasure, take it to play with your brother."

Shen Xian instructed, "Play lightly, don't break it again."

"It's okay," Dou Zheng said with a big wave of his hand, "Your Uncle Douzi has a lot of money, let's buy it again if it breaks!"

Shen Xian said angrily, "Don't teach him badly, cultivate the spirit of thrift, understand?"

Tongtong broke free from his arms, and went to the side with his brother to play the kaleidoscope. Dou Zheng walked over and slapped Lu Jie on the back, "Why are you unhappy? Did you get bullied by that guy again?"

Lu Jie glanced at him expressionlessly and didn't speak. At this time, he didn't know what else to say. Seeing their family happy and sitting here alone as an outsider, it was just annoying.

With a wry smile, he stood up and said to Shen Xian, "Then I'm leaving."

"En." Shen Xian was smiling and watching the children playing, but he didn't even look at him when he heard the words, and only responded lightly.

Lu Jie bit his lip, bowed his head and strode out.

Dou Zheng was stunned, looked outside the door and then at Shen Xian, "What's wrong with you? Did you quarrel? He confessed to you? You rejected him?"

Shen Xian glanced at him, "Why do you have so many problems? You know so much, right? You can take care of my affairs? Hey, let me tell you, why do you come to me three times a day? When did our relationship get so bad? Okay? What is your intention?"

Dou Zheng was stopped by the barrage of questions, tilted his head and stared for a long time, then suddenly said depressedly, "I don't know what my intentions are!"

"Then go and verify it." Shen Xian casually picked up an apple and threw it at him, "I found out that Meilu did something bad, so hurry up and comfort his wounded heart."

Dou Zheng raised his hand, grabbed the apple, and his expression became serious, "Bad thing? Did you find out?"

"You know everything, can't I find out?" Shen Xian glanced at him.

Dou Zheng laughed loudly, "I know it's because I investigated him, okay?"

Shen Xian was speechless, "Don't speak so frankly when you do this kind of thing."

"If you admire a person, you want to know everything about him." Dou Zheng held his cheeks shyly, "You are such an unscrupulous person, you won't understand this kind of pure youthful feelings."

Shen Xian: "..." He wanted to beat this disgusting Bala guy to death.

Dou Zheng stood up carelessly, took an apple and waved to him, "Then I'll go, bye~~ Nephews, Uncle Douzi is gone!"

"Goodbye, Uncle Douzi!"

Tongtong was only as high as the hospital bed, with his little hands resting on the edge of the bed, he held up the kaleidoscope for Shen Xian to see, "Dad, look!"

Shen Xian smiled and carried him to the bed, leaned over to look at the kaleidoscope, the colorful scenery appeared in front of his eyes, and suddenly brightened his mood, "Well, it looks good."

He suddenly remembered an idea that came up in Phuket, he wanted to do a photography project focusing on blind children. Seeing Tongtong look at the colorful colors in the kaleidoscope with his only eye, his heart became very soft.

Called pickup to bring over his computer and camera, and started working on a photography project.

When Dou Zheng chased him out, Lu Jie had already walked out of the hospital and was standing on the side of the road waiting for the car. Dou Zheng got up from behind, holding a red apple in his hand, "Handsome guy, do you eat apples? It's not poisonous."

Lu Jie: "..."

"You are waiting for the car, do you want to take my car? I will be your exclusive driver."

Lu Jie was in a bad mood and looked at him coldly, "What's the matter with you?"

Dou Zheng smiled unabated, and said happily, "I saw a very handsome guy waiting for the bus by the side of the road, how can I let it go?"

"you're so boring."

"No, no," Dou Zheng shook his head, "This is boring, why are you talking? Family and country affairs, shopping malls? From my point of view, it's just a waste of life. The true meaning of life is to hunt for beauty. So we won’t be ashamed of our short decades of life.” He said and stuffed the apple to him, “Here, eat it well, and feel the preciousness of life.”

Lu Jie held the apple: "..."

"As the saying goes, life is unsatisfactory nine times out of ten. Could it be that we will be devastated after one or two blows? Wrong! We should have a life like a spring, the more frustrated the more courageous, the more courageous the more frustrated, there is no shortage in the world. Beauty, what is missing is the eyes to discover beauty, let us open our minds and look at the world with a different attitude, you will find wow, this world is so beautiful..."

Lu Jie: "Where is your car?"

Dou Zheng happily drove his little BYD over, patted the steering wheel, and said proudly, "Although it's not as good as your car or my sister-in-law's car, I bought this car with my own money. Blood money."

Lu Jie couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled, "I can see that you are different from ordinary rich second generations."

"That's so different!" Dou Zheng was very excited immediately, "I use the name of a rich second generation, and I do all the fucking grassroots jobs. My dad said, I started from the grassroots, and I did it wrong. Things are still deducting wages, one day I feel unhappy, maybe I will kick out to start my own business, is it easy for me?"

Lu Jie looked calm on the outside, but burst into tears in his heart: I got into a thief's car, boss, the biggest difference between you and the ordinary rich second generation is that they don't talk as much as you...

It was evening now, and Dou Zheng invited Lu Jie to dinner. It was always easy to get closer to each other at the dinner table. Although Dou Zheng was unreliable, he had a wide range of knowledge and had been to many places. There are two brushes in the active atmosphere, and I can have a very happy chat with a boring gourd like Lu Jie. After a meal, Lu Jie's mood has improved a lot.

In the evening, Dou Zheng mysteriously wanted to take Lu Jie to a good place to play, Lu Jie's heart sank, they all grew up in N City, and they knew all the interesting things in this city. Status and temper, the so-called fun place is probably some newly opened entertainment club?

"I'm not going," Lu Jie declined, "You have fun by yourself, do you want to drive? Drop me off at the intersection ahead, and I'll take a taxi home by myself."

"What's so fun about me?" Dou Zheng said aggrievedly, "I've been playing with myself for more than 20 years, and I'm tired of it. It's only nine o'clock now. Your parents will worry about you when you go home so early."

"They won't," Lu Jie said calmly, "I don't have a mother, and my father won't worry about me."

"But I will," Dou Zheng took Lu Jie's hand and pressed it against his heart, "It's so embarrassing for a 24-year-old man who doesn't have a nightlife. Your three older brothers will definitely laugh at you, and maybe even give him a hand." You introduce women, do you like women?"

"like."

"..." Dou Zheng was struck by lightning, stunned for a long time, and said blankly, "I like it too."

Lu Jie couldn't help laughing, "You're really two...well, where do you want to take me?"

Dou Zheng laughed and started the car cheerfully. When passing by KFC, he bought two family barrels, then went to the supermarket to carry a case of beer and threw it in the car. Shuttle among the small alleys in the city, drilled out of the old city wall, and stopped by a small bridge.

Not far away is the bustling feasting and feasting. Around the Lantern Festival, it is the most prosperous time for the Lantern Festival, and the melody of the orchestra can be heard from a distance.

It is very clean here, neither the indifference of the metropolis nor the smoky smell of fat and powder. The two sat on the bridge, watching the flower boats in the distance, drinking beer and eating French fries.

"Isn't it nice here? It's like a brand new space isolated from the world," Dou Zheng bit a chicken wing, slurring his words, "When I was young, my family was very poor, and my parents rented a private house over there. I start a business every day, and I don’t have time to take care of me, so I just sit on the bridge and drink drinks, sometimes it’s a whole night.”

Lu Jie smiled and said, "You are quite rich, and you still have drinks."

"Help others with their homework. It costs [-] cents a time. You can buy a bottle of soda three times." Dou Zheng smiled.

Lu Jie laughed heartily.

Dou Zheng looked at his smiling face, "You should smile more."

Lu Jie withdrew his smile and returned to his expressionless face.

"Really, you laugh like a devil." Dou Zheng praised sincerely.

Lu Jie: "..."

"Hey, I mean you'll die just by looking at it," Dou Zheng hastily corrected, "Bah! What kind of talk, oh, you know what I mean, don't you?"

Lu Jie asked, "Murderous smile?"

Dou Zheng gave a serious thumbs up, "Correct answer!"

The two were talking about life and ideals by the bridge... Well, it was Dou Zheng who was talking about life and ideals. Lu Jie listened casually and drank until late at night unconsciously.

After drinking a can of beer, Dou Zheng leaned comfortably on the pier, looked at the brilliant starry sky above his head, and let out a sigh of relief, "When I was young, I thought, when I grow up and find a wife, I will bring her here , the two of us drink soda and look at the stars together, not to mention how enjoyable it is..."

Lu Jie didn't answer the call, and after a long time, he suddenly said calmly, "Should I go back?"

A trace of disappointment slipped through Dou Zheng's eyes, he sat up straight suddenly, and slapped his forehead, "Damn! I forgot about the big things!"

He came to pick up his grandchildren to enjoy the family happiness under Her Lady Queen's order, but because of Lu Jie, he forgot about the decree. Only now did he think about it, and all thoughts were lost, Tang Wei would kill him.

Tremblingly, he called Mr. Dou and asked how Her Lady Queen was feeling today.

President Dou was speechless for a while, "There was a serious delay in the publication of a magazine, which delayed the launch time. Your mother lost her temper all night. I still hope that the two children can improve her mood."

"How much anger is she worth now?"

"Rough estimate... SSS level."

Dou Zheng was struck with thunder, and mourned tearfully, "Dad, dear dad, you must save me."

"Go hide at a friend's house for two days," Mr. Dou suggested sincerely.

Dou Zheng answered the phone with tears streaming down his face, and looked at Lu Jie, his melancholy eyes instantly filled with longing.

Lu Jie: "..." Boss, we don't know each other well! ! !
