"It's not up to you to care who I like." Cheng Li responded arrogantly to Cheng Yan.

"I'm your own brother anyway, isn't it appropriate to say that?" Cheng Yan asked unfriendly after hearing this.

Then he said: "The reason why I say this is because I think it is necessary to remind you that Xu Rui's sudden agreement to marry you is very strange in itself, and he may have another purpose."

Xu Rui quietly put his ear on the door.

He didn't mean to eavesdrop on the quarrel between the two brothers, but the content of the quarrel involved himself, so he thought it would be better to understand.

To prevent being framed.

"In this matter, I am the one with another purpose," Cheng Li's voice was still arrogant, "and I have confessed to him."

Cheng Yan snorted coldly: "I know you want to use Xu Rui and the Xu family behind him to deal with me."

"I don't care, it's just Cheng Li. After so many years, why are you still so naive?"

"Have you forgotten, whose prank made your personality that had disappeared in your youth reappear?"

"If you forget about it, do you remember how it felt to hear someone call you crazy?"

"Do you remember how you felt when you first learned that you had multiple personalities from a psychiatrist?"

"You shouldn't have lived in such pain these eight years, it was Xu Rui who made you change back to this look!"

"You still like him?"

There was only deathly silence in the box.

After the silence, Cheng Li did not answer Cheng Yan's question directly, but said lightly: "Yes, I like Xu Rui."

Xu Rui's mind suddenly went blank, and he was a little dazed.

It was the first time he heard the cold-faced Hades talking so much, and only then did he realize that the relationship between Cheng Yan and Cheng Li was not as bad as he had imagined. At least, Cheng Yan still cared about Cheng Li, his younger brother.

It was the first time he heard Cheng Li admit that he liked him in front of others, and he realized that Cheng Li's clumsy overtures were not a routine.

The first time he knew it was because of a prank that split Cheng Li's recovered personality again.

It turned out that the past that the beautiful psychiatrist mentioned in front of her intentionally or unintentionally was really important.

So, what did the original owner of this body do eight years ago?

Xu Rui felt that it was time to ask everything.

He took one last look at Cheng Li who was looking at Cheng Yan calmly and proudly in the room, closed the door quietly, and left the club alone.

Driving back home, Xu Rui estimated that the quarrel between the two brothers should be over, so he called Cheng Li and lied to him as if nothing had happened: "Sorry, I met a friend while I was breathing, and he insisted on dragging me to drink , so I can't go back and play with you guys."

"Can I ask you out again tomorrow?" Cheng Li's voice was a little tired, but his tone was still firm.

Xu Rui:?

Are you still in the mood to play billiards together at this time?

Xu Rui's brain crashed for a moment, and he asked inexplicably, "Is it because we were disturbed by your brother and Song Leyu today, so we didn't have a good time?"

Cheng Li didn't speak, and suddenly there was no sound in the receiver.

Xu Rui looked at the phone strangely, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly realized that tomorrow is Qixi Festival—the traditional Valentine's Day.

Thinking of Cheng Yan's cold and emotionless series of questioning and Cheng Li's resolute and even stubborn expression when he said he liked him, Xu Rui suddenly felt uncontrollably sad.

Although he didn't do what happened in the past, but now he really doesn't know how to treat Cheng Li's liking.

On the opposite side, Cheng Li seemed to have understood, but he was still silently and persistently waiting for his reply.

Xu Rui couldn't think of a good way, so he had to say helplessly: "If I have time tomorrow, I will find you."

"Okay," Cheng Li replied, and added before hanging up the phone, "I'll wait for you at home."

After the two finished talking, Xu Rui immediately found Wen Sheng's WeChat and sent her a message.

——Xu Rui: Are you free, can we meet and chat?

A few minutes later, Wen Sheng sent a reply.

——Wen Sheng: At this time?Little handsome guy, the men who want to ask my sister out tomorrow are lined up, I'm afraid my sister won't have time to talk to you.

Xu Rui: ...

——Xu Rui: I want to know what I did to Cheng Li in high school.

Wen Sheng's answer hesitated for a second, then became serious.

——Wen Sheng: Young Master Xu really doesn't remember?

——Xu Rui: Yes.

——Wen Sheng: Xu Shao, from an emotional point of view, you, Cheng Li and your friends were the first-hand witnesses of what happened back then, while I was just a bystander who heard about this experience from Cheng Li. Your friend understands the details better. From a rational point of view, as Cheng Li's psychiatrist, I cannot disclose the patient's privacy to others.

——Wen Sheng: So, if Xu Shaozhen wants to know what happened, he can ask the people around him.

Xu Rui was not reconciled, and tried to continue to persuade Wen Sheng.

——Xu Rui: You said you wanted me to help Cheng Li with you.

——Wen Sheng: Our efforts are in the future, and this incident happened in the past. If you really forget it, go find the truth yourself!

Knowing that there was nothing to be asked from Wen Sheng, Xu Rui didn't reply any more, looking through the chat records of the two of them while thinking.

Cheng Li once said that his cronies were accomplices, so Zong Yang and Yong Mingxuan who had the best relationship with the original owner in the past should have participated in this matter, right?

Although he didn't want to talk to these two guys at all, but now, he had to make a choice, ask one of them out, and ask the truth about the past.

Since Yong Mingxuan was an old fox, Xu Rui released Zong Yang, who had been lying on his WeChat blacklist and had a low IQ.

——Xu Rui: Are you free?Go out for a drink?

Zong Yang's reply was quick and always smug.

——Zong Yang: Fuck, are you finally willing to fucking let me out?Have you already dealt with that guy Cheng Li?

2 minutes later……

——Zong Yang: Oh no, you are the one below, the previous sentence cannot be undone, you pretend I never said it.

Xu Rui: ...

Xu Rui endured his distaste for Zong Yang and asked him out.

The two met at a bar near Xu's house. Xu Rui ordered a row of depth charges for Zong Yang, planning to get him drunk first, and then tell him what he wanted to know.

Zong Yang looked at the row of cocktails in front of him, and suddenly became excited, picked up a glass and drank it down, and hugged Xu Rui with a blushing face: "Ruizi, it's interesting, we are still good brothers!"

Who is your good brother? !

Xu Rui avoided his hand in disgust, pushed another glass of wine over, and said to him patiently: "Today I am treating guests, you can drink whatever you want!"

Zong Yang took out the cigarette case, poured out a cigarette and lit it, took a deep breath, and said awkwardly: "My buddy can afford the wine here, today I am happy mainly because you finally broke up with Cheng Li, that psychopath! "

Xu Rui didn't expect this guy to dare to say that, and frowned unhappily.

He and Cheng Li haven't broken up yet, he thought to himself, when he can successfully get the words out of this mouth, he will definitely send this guy back to the blacklist.

Thinking of this, Xu Rui handed over the third cup of depth charges.

Zong Yang did not refuse anyone who came, took it and drank it all.

Xu Rui observed secretly, and found that his face had turned red, his eyes were blurred, and he even hiccupped with his head down...

The time was almost ripe, Xu Rui picked up a glass of wine and took a sip, sighing casually according to the plan: "Oh, to be honest, my relationship with Cheng Li was really bad before we got engaged."

Zong Yang also took a glass of wine, took a sip, and said disdainfully: "Stop dreaming, how can your relationship with that psychopath be good?"

"Even if he is beautiful, anyone who looks at him will want to fuck, but you should restrain yourself, okay?"

"Be careful he gives you this."

Zong Yang raised his hand and gestured horizontally on his neck.

Then he felt something was wrong, frowned and thought hard, and said, "I forgot that you are doing 0 now, and Cheng Li is 1."

Xu Rui understood Zong Yang's gesture, but didn't understand the meaning, so he pretended to be surprised and asked, "Can he kill me?"

Zong Yang took a sip of wine and replied, "Why not?"

"That mental illness."

"Have you forgotten how the two of you got together?"

Almost done.

Excited, Xu Rui handed Zong Yang a glass of wine and said calmly, "I forgot."

Zong Yang gave him a disdainful look, took the glass, and drank the wine in one gulp.

Xu Rui: Drinking depth charges in this way is really stupid.

Xu Rui didn't speak, Zong Yang patted him on the shoulder very loyally, and started to recall the original owner's high school career with him as if the two brothers had shared joys and sorrows together...

An hour later, Xu Rui threw Zong Yang, who was drunk and passed out, on the seat, checked out alone, and walked out of the bar.

Breaking away from the hustle and bustle of the environment, summer midnight is extraordinarily quiet, and you can hear the sound of insects chirping in the trees on both sides of the street.

Xu Rui took a deep breath and looked up at the sky.

In this city made of steel and concrete, the night sky that was supposed to be full of stars has also become dim.

Xu Rui sometimes really thinks that human beings are horrible and evil animals, the same kind that he hates and even loathes himself.

Because the human heart is the most terrifying existence in this world, and human nature is darker than the darkest place in this world.

Zong Yang's intermittent narratives mixed with subjective emotions repeatedly appeared in Xu Rui's mind. These narratives were like the screens of a movie, allowing him to see the past.

He couldn't imagine how bad a person must be to do such a thing to another person who just doesn't like it in the name of joking.

Eight years ago, in the same summer, the original owner's birthday was approaching, and he planned to hold a birthday party and invite his relatives and friends to attend.

Since he and Cheng Li were born on the same day, had been engaged, and Cheng and Xu's family had been in contact with each other over the years, Xu's father and Xu's mother hoped that their son could hold this party with Cheng Li.

The original owner and Cheng Li are the same age, and they are in the same grade in the same school. It stands to reason that the relationship between the two will be very close, but in fact, anyone who knows the inside story knows that the two have completely different personalities and tempers, and they cannot get along peacefully at all. .

The original owner didn't like Cheng Li and had to obey his parents' decision, so he complained to his friends and asked them to help him find a solution.

One of his friends named Peng Yong has long been displeased with Cheng Li's character and style, so he gave the original owner an idea: his birthday party is very important, and it should be a special commemorative one, if it's just eating and drinking, it would be too boring , they should find some different fun.

He asked the original owner to invite Cheng Li to the party in the name of celebrating his birthday together, and then teased him a little, giving this surprise to Cheng Li and himself as a coming-of-age gift.

Maybe it was Xu's father and Xu's mother's connivance that made the original owner lose the ability to distinguish between good and evil, or maybe the original owner really didn't have a brain. After listening to Peng Yong's detailed plan, he actually found it very exciting and interesting, and adopted the idea on the spot.

Two weeks later, the birthday of the original owner and Cheng Li arrived. Because Cheng Li received the invitation letter, he went to the corresponding place according to the time stated on it, and arrived at the villa where the party was held earlier than everyone else.

Although there were very few guests in the villa at that time, only the original owner and a few of his buddies, Cheng Li didn't care about these, so he gave the gift he had prepared to the original owner without suspecting him.

According to Peng Yong's plan, the original owner told him that he also had a surprise for him. Surrounded by his friends, he led the reluctant Cheng Li to a hidden storage room.

There was no light in the storage room, Cheng Li was pushed in unsuspectingly, and the original owner who stayed outside the door immediately locked him inside.

Then, the original owner and his friends left the storage room together despite the constant knocking on the door, and happily ran to the monitoring room—this storage room is equipped with a hidden infrared camera, and the inside of the storage room can be seen from the monitoring room Not only Cheng Li, but also a young horse dog brought by Peng Yong from home.

The horse dog is a very ferocious shepherd dog, very aggressive, even after training, there is a danger of hurting people.

Before it was put into the storage room and locked up with Cheng Li, it had been starved all morning.

The reason why Peng Yong came up with such a vicious idea is because Cheng Li likes small animals very much. He often feeds stray cats and dogs that appear near the campus and buys them shelter.

This behavior is in great contrast to his beautiful appearance, haughty personality and sharp words. A wealthy and noble boy who likes small animals and is full of love can almost make all the girls in the school fall in love with him, including the girl Peng Yong is pursuing.

Although Cheng Li is not interested in girls, Peng Yong still hates Cheng Li, his imaginary rival in love, and always wants to trouble him.

But he was afraid of the influence of the Cheng family, so he dared not take practical actions. So when the original owner mentioned the birthday party, he came up with the idea of ​​using the original owner's hand to punish Cheng Li.

When a group of people arrived at the monitoring room, Cheng Li on the screen no longer knocked on the door, but took out his mobile phone, trying to call someone for help.

But there is no network or signal in this storage room, and he cannot seek help from the outside world.

When he saw a suspicious but familiar green light, he turned on the light of his phone and saw the hunting dog pacing back and forth behind him.

Cheng Li was stunned for a moment, realizing that he had been tricked by the original owner, and now his personal safety was being threatened.

Everyone outside the storage room was curious about his next reaction, they moved stools and chairs enthusiastically, unpacked snacks, and squeezed to the screen to watch the monitor.

During the surveillance, Cheng Li clenched his hand by his side tightly into a fist, as if he was desperately trying to restrain the anger rising in his heart.

The horse dog was at his feet, barking at him incessantly.

After a few minutes, he calmed down, instead of knocking on the door or calling for help, he squatted down and raised his hand to pet the horse dog.

He was not at all frightened by the hound.

The original owner, Peng Yong, and Zong Yang didn't see the expected scene at the first time, and let out long sighs of disappointment one after another, and got together to discuss whether to shut down Chengli for another two hours.

Anyway, it's still early for the birthday party to start.

Cheng Li had been trying to appease the restless horse dog, but after the hound stopped barking for a short while, it started to bark more fiercely and pounced on him non-stop.

Cheng Li retreated without a trace, he became more and more dangerous in the small storage room, while the spectators in the monitoring room became more and more excited.

The original owner felt that the purpose of scaring him had been achieved and wanted to release him, but Peng Yong disagreed and asked him to watch it for a while.

Cheng Li raised his hand to his temple, as if he was having a headache.

At this moment, the horse dog jumped on his leg and bit his left leg through his pants.

Bright red blood seeped through the fine suit trousers and flowed to the ground.

The original owner was taken aback by this prominent change, stood up and picked up the key of the storage room, trying to release Cheng Li.

However, he suddenly heard everyone exclaiming in unison, turned around and saw an unexpected scene.

Cheng Li, who was still in pain just now, curled his lips and smiled, his demeanor suddenly changed, as if he had become another person.

He said a few words to himself, then frowned and looked at his left leg.

Seeing the horse dog, he looked up again, trying to find a way out of this room.

But he quickly failed, so he raised his hand to feel around his body, and after a while he took out a pen from his suit pocket.

This is what Cheng Lian usually carries with him to draw pictures and record inspirations.

Except for a pen and a mobile phone, he has no other tools on him.

This Cheng Li irritatedly cursed, threw the pen on the ground casually, held the pen and looked at the horse dog biting his thigh.

The original owner hurried out of the surveillance room to open the door of the storage room.

Zong Yang, Peng Yong and the others watched as Cheng Li slammed the pen into the neck artery of the dog, endured the pain in his leg and the struggle and scratching of the dog, and kept increasing the force on his hand. Mercy.

The gushing blood splashed onto his fair and beautiful face, making him terrifying and terrifying.

Cheng Li only showed a slight expression of disgust, neither dodging at all, nor reducing his strength.

The Hound finally let go of its teeth on his left leg, and fell to the ground, convulsing.

At this moment, the original owner who rushed to the storage room opened the door, and the fierce and scorching summer sun instantly entered the darkness.

Cheng Li squinted his eyes uncomfortably, and looked at the original owner who was standing outside the door and looking at him stupidly.

In the dust floating in the air, the two fell silent for some reason.

Then, Cheng Li took the lead in breaking the silence.

He looked at the original owner, sneered disdainfully, picked up the bloody young hound corpse on the ground, walked out of the storage room, slapped the corpse on the original owner's face, and walked away.

Recalling this period of time, Zong Yang laughed so hard at the bar counter that he couldn't stop shaking all over his body.

He didn't notice Xu Rui's gradually gloomy face, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, pointed to Xu Rui and said, "I just remembered, Ruizi, you have been cowardly since you were a child."

"That guy Cheng Li dared to kill a dog with his bare hands without even blinking his eyes. You're lucky, but he was covered in dog blood, so, hahahaha, he was so frightened that he had a high fever for a week, talking nonsense, Hahaha."

"I went to see you at that time, you said dog blood is hot, hahaha."

Xu Rui endured the anger burning in his body, handed him the last cup of depth charges, and asked coldly, "Where's that Peng Yong?"

Zong Yang was talking about the excitement, picked up the glass of wine in front of him and drank it boldly, and said to himself: "However, you are also a blessing in disguise."

"Didn't Cheng Li's parents die when he was a child? He had a weird temper. Since he was stimulated that day, he often went crazy, and he seemed to be a different person at every turn."

"Then his grandfather found out what happened on your birthday. Who is Cheng Huayuan? Someone touched his precious grandson. How could he not be thoroughly investigated?"

"Your parents took advantage of their good relationship with the Cheng family and came to apologize in person. You were frightened into that kind of behavior again, so he didn't touch your family."

Xu Rui interrupted him coldly, and asked repeatedly: "Where's Peng Yong?"

Zong Yang's face was flushed from drinking, he glanced at him with a smile, and replied: "That idiot Peng Yong is even more unlucky."

He said in a sympathetic tone: "His parents have no friendship with the Cheng family, and their roots in Linhai City are not deep. In less than three months, his family's company declared bankruptcy because of Cheng Huayuan's series of operations. Peng Yong didn't even graduate from high school." He dropped out of school right away.”

"Now," Zong Yang sighed and shook his head, actually gloating, "Now that their family has moved out of Linhai City, I don't know where they are living in."

Fortunately, Mr. Cheng is not easy to mess with.

When Xu Rui heard the fate of the perpetrator, he breathed out a bad breath, and felt much better.

However, looking at Zong Yang, who was domineering, indiscriminate between good and evil, alive and kicking in front of him, he felt aggrieved for Cheng Li.

He called the waiter at the bar, ordered another row of cocktails, picked up one for himself, and pushed the rest to Zong Yang.

Before today, Xu Rui never imagined that the past entanglement between the original owner and Cheng Li would be like this.

The prank Cheng Yan was talking about was not a prank at all, but a premeditated murder.

If Lu Xun didn't show up in time, Xu Rui didn't dare to imagine what would happen to Cheng Li.

This also solved Xu Rui's doubts all along.

Mr. Cheng didn't seem like a narrow-minded person who ruined Xu's family just because the original owner said something wrong about Cheng Li in public.

But he would never allow someone who hurt his grandson to do the same thing again.

Therefore, the marriage between the original owner and Cheng Li is probably not just a simple rehash of the past, Mr. Cheng should have the intention of making the original owner atone for his sins.

And the original owner's refusal touched the bottom line of Mr. Cheng, which made the whole family end up in such a miserable end.

So it all makes sense.

The mysterious past has been solved one after another, but Xu Rui has no sense of accomplishment.

He didn't know what kind of mood Cheng Li had when he said "I like Xu Rui" to his brother who knew the truth.

He can't guess it, and he can't feel it.

Except for himself and Lu Xun, no one else knew that he was not the original owner, including Cheng Li.

But Cheng Li said he likes him.

So from Cheng Li's point of view, what he likes is the weak, immoral, indiscriminate person who has hurt him.

How much does he need to bet to make sure he doesn't get hurt again?

How can I be worthy of his bet?

Xu Rui felt distressed for no reason.

He felt sorry for Cheng Li like this.

The comparison between the past and the present made him see the tenderness and bravery in Cheng Li's bones.

Cheng Li's heart is as beautiful as his beautiful appearance, perhaps, because of this, his soul can split into a pure and clean child like Su Jing!

In the late night that was gradually becoming silent, Xu Rui walked home alone, thinking in his heart that he was going to see Cheng Li tomorrow and told him that he would take back that sentence—'You are more scheming than I thought, and more worldly'.

The next day was Qixi Festival. I thought it would be a sunny day suitable for a date, but the weather was unexpectedly gloomy, as if a downpour was about to fall.

Xu Rui, who hadn't slept all night, got up in the morning and opened the curtains, and saw the gray sky outside the window, thinking that Cheng Li's personality would often disappear inexplicably in this weather, and felt a little disturbed.

Now he has a lot to say and can't wait to say to Cheng Li, if he has any questions, he has to ask Cheng Li, and he has to apologize to Cheng Li instead of the original owner, so he doesn't want to miss the special festival of Qixi Festival - Xu Rui still remembers Cheng Li saying that he likes himself , to wait for himself at home today - he has secretly made a decision in his heart, and today he will tell Cheng Li face to face with this decision.

Not in the mood to eat breakfast, Xu Rui put the luggage he packed last night into the car, and ran back to Cheng's house with all his belongings just like the day he returned to Xu's house.

Ten minutes later, he entered the password for the gate, parked the sports car in the garage of the villa, and dragged out his suitcase.

In this exceptionally pretty and peaceful garden, the wheels of suitcases rolled over the cobbled paths, making a dream-disturbing sound.

Xu Rui didn't notice this, and walked towards the main entrance of the villa while thinking about something.

Obviously yesterday he and Cheng Li were still playing billiards together, but after knowing what the original owner did to Cheng Li, Xu Rui suddenly had the illusion that the two of them were separated by thousands of mountains and rivers and hadn't seen each other for a long time.

But at this moment, when he was close to Cheng Li, he suddenly realized that he hadn't figured out what his first sentence would be when they met.

Apologize?Say hello as usual?Or just give him a loving hug?

"Isn't this the first time you've walked this path? Is there any money on the ground that you can pick up? What are you looking down at?" A familiar voice, a familiar tone.

Xu Rui raised his head and saw Cheng Li standing in front of the rose bushes at the entrance of the villa with his arms folded, looking at him impatiently.

The eyes of the two met, and he was a little awkward, turning his face away unconsciously.

Xu Rui couldn't help laughing, his anxious mood since yesterday afternoon suddenly became calm.

He felt that this scene was like meeting Cheng Li for the first time.

It didn't take long to calculate the time, but their relationship was undergoing substantial changes.

He thought, the past will eventually pass, he is the one standing here facing Cheng Li, not the original owner, Wen Sheng is right, their story is in the future.

Xu Rui quickened his pace.

The two entered the villa, Cheng Li handed the suitcase to the housekeeper, Uncle Chen, turned around and said, "I thought you wouldn't come back today."

"Why?" Xu Rui put on his familiar slippers and walked into the living room.

"Your attitude yesterday made me think..." Cheng Li hesitated for a moment, his expression still arrogant, but he said in an unnatural tone, "I thought you heard the quarrel between me and Cheng Yan..."

"I heard it."

Xu Rui believed that it was an attitude between the two of them to speak openly and honestly without hiding anything, so he told Cheng Li the truth: "I heard what you said, and I remembered what I did in the past."

He was silent for a while, looked up into Cheng Li's eyes, and said sincerely: "I'm sorry, I apologize to you for my willful behavior."

"I don't remember whether I have said this to you in the past eight years, and if I did, did it come from the heart."

"But this time, it's true."

"I really apologize to you. I'm sorry. It's not you who made the mistake, but you have to bear the consequences..."

"Xu Rui," Cheng Li's eyes fluttered slightly, and he called out Xu Rui's name, interrupting his words.

"Do you know? On the night after my birthday, I still had nothing to say, and you left angrily, without giving me a chance to continue."

Hearing him mention this matter, Xu Rui hurriedly explained: "I came back today to tell you that I want to take back what I said that night, you were teased like that by me, and it was on your birthday, don't believe it I should, and it doesn't matter what I use."

"I do not care."

"No," Cheng Li became a little anxious, without the usual arrogance, and said eagerly, "I care, that's why I confess these things to you."

Xu Rui was a little dazed, looked at him puzzled, and saw his ears turning red slowly.

Xu Rui:?

But Cheng Li didn't hesitate, and said firmly, "What I didn't finish that night was that I not only got to know you again, but also, I like you, Xu Rui."

After saying this, his face also turned red, as if there were veins of blood in the suet white jade.

Caught off guard by Cheng Li's confession, Xu Rui was very embarrassed and blushed.

The atmosphere between the two is like a blown up balloon, which is about to explode when poked, and then the space is filled with embarrassment and inexplicable ambiguity.

Xu Rui wanted to break this awkward atmosphere, so he pretended to be calm and said, "To be honest, I heard this sentence yesterday."

"So?" Cheng Li seemed to have misunderstood his meaning and asked nervously.

"So," Xu Rui looked at Cheng Li and rolled his eyes, "I want to ask you a very tacky question."

Cheng Li showed a surprised expression.

Today should be a perfect day. In order to let both of them relax, Xu Rui joked with him: "Don't worry, I'm not asking how much property you have."

Cheng Li glanced at him when he heard the words, and said solemnly: "If you separate in the future, you can get a lot, much more than you can imagine."

Xu Rui curled his lips and laughed again.

Then he asked seriously: "My question is - why do you like me? Or, what do you like about me?"

"Obviously we have always looked at each other disliked before."

Cheng Li fell silent and didn't speak.

Xu Rui:?

Is this question difficult to answer?

A little hurt inside.

Cheng Li thought for a moment, then raised his head and said, "If you have doubts about my liking, then I can tell you."

"Although you have done many wrong things in the past, and you are always bickering with me now, the nature of the two is different."

"You are a total jerk, 26 years old, but you have grown into a kind, mature and attractive man, when you vent your anger in front of those guys for me, when you want to be friends with me, or I'm always happy and happy and inspired when you're in the workshop with me, I don't like seeing you with other men, I get jealous when I find you chatting with people other than me, So, I decided that I like you."

"This kind of liking far outweighs the dislike I had for you when I was a teenager."

"I want to monopolize you and make you my exclusive muse, not that foreign photographer's, nor anyone else's."

He said so much in one breath, Xu Rui was a little surprised, but also very pleasantly surprised.

It turned out that Cheng Li's heart was like this, he liked him, and could even ignore the damage done by the original owner.

Having lived for two lifetimes, Xu Rui, who was once a film star, has received countless confessions from fans and people of the same sex, but none of them are as important as Cheng Li, and they can't help but feel light all over.

So, what about your own mind?

Xu Rui lowered his head, lost in thought.

"Will you respond to my liking?" Cheng Li asked him, with a trace of uncertainty in his tone.

"No," Xu Rui raised his head to look at him again, with a guilty look on his face, "I don't think I will reciprocate your liking."

Cheng Li's face showed an unconcealable disappointment and injury for a moment.

Xu Rui said seriously: "You still owe me a wish, will you help me realize it today?"

Cheng Li took a deep breath, still nodded proudly and said, "Okay."

Xu Rui walked up to him, approached him, and whispered softly in his ear: "I think, let Mr. Cheng Li be upgraded from my marriage partner to my real old attack, I wonder if you can realize this wish? "

"Because I feel like I'm in love with him."

After finishing speaking, Xu Rui looked at Cheng Li with a smile.

Cheng Li stared blankly at him, staring blankly at him.

After a while, he finally came to his senses, blushing with a vicious tongue: "I reasonably suspect that you want to murder me and inherit all my property!"

Xu Rui laughed twice, stepped on his slippers and walked to the sofa, sat comfortably on the sofa, and teased him: "I just don't want to see you embarrassed, so I thought of a wish that would be easier for you to realize."

Cheng Li walked up to him and sat down, and told him seriously: "No matter how difficult your wish is, I will help you realize it."

Xu Rui looked at him, thinking that my wish is for you to be well, and I hope you can do it.

Cheng Li couldn't hear his voice, so he picked up a square box that had been placed on the coffee table and handed it to him.

Xu Rui took the box inexplicably, pointed to himself, and asked him, "For me?"

Cheng Li nodded, slightly pursed his lips and said, "Seventh Festival gift."

Xu Rui looked at the delicate box in his hand and thought it should be a watch.

Cheng Li encouraged him: "Open it and have a look."

Xu Rui opened the box politely, and he saw an extremely luxurious watch quietly placed in the box.

The overall tone of the watch is white, and the design of the dial is very unique. The background is the blue sea and blue sky under the sun. The hour and minute hands are on the left and right sides of the dial, and there are two fishes of different sizes in the deep sea.

Xu Rui stared at it for a while, and found that the big fish representing the minute hand would swim back and forth, but the small fish representing the hour hand remained motionless.

He looked up at Cheng Li amusedly, and said to him, "This design is quite cute."

Cheng Li raised his head and said arrogantly, "Of course."

Then he introduced the watch to Xu Rui professionally: "White Italian imported calfskin strap, folding buckle, rose gold case, sapphire crystal glass mirror, equipped with Romano's most advanced movement, and the most advanced watch in the world. Advanced movement, the performance of this watch is absolutely superior.”

Xu Rui nodded.

This is indeed a good watch worth owning.
