fault tolerance

After taking a shower for half an hour, Tang Lou recovered from his bad mood.

Finally felt that the water temperature was too cold.

In the middle of winter, he actually took... a cold shower.

Tang Lou stroked his hair, turned off the tap, grabbed the towel and wiped his body.His back was soaked in cold water for too long, and there were bursts of burning pain, which made him grit his teeth for a long time, and took a few deep breaths, waiting for the pain to pass.

He still lost to Tang Jun after all.

In fact, he knew in his heart that he couldn't blame Zhou Yu, it was because he overestimated himself.No matter who it is, they will definitely like Tang Jun.

Famous as a teenager, debut as an idol, guaranteed box office, devoted fans, who can escape?

Except for their good looks, the two brothers are exactly the same, and they have nothing to do with each other.

How can a dull and pedantic associate professor of archeology, who is either buried in books or lying on the loess, compare to the popular top traffic niche?

Isn't it reasonable for Zhou Yu to choose him?

It's just that I am too stupid to mistake youthful loyalty and righteousness for liking.

It was so wrong.

The journey was tiring and anxious, when Tang Lou wiped his hair in front of the mirror, he saw that his face was a lot haggard, with a sad expression, full of unhappiness.

He threw the bath towel into the laundry basket, stretched out his palm, slapped his face hard twice, and poked at the dimple with his index finger, pretending to smile.

The night was already deep, and within a few hours, it was almost dawn.

Zhou Yu slept soundly, Tang Lou tiptoed to his side, sat cross-legged by the bed, his eyes fell directly on his sleeping face.

Just take a look.

Tang Lou said silently in his heart: just take a look.

When Tang Lou met Zhou Yu for the first time, he was 13 years old and Zhou Yu was 14 years old.

He and Tang Jun are twins, they look alike, and few people can tell the difference when they are not talking.

The mother of the two is Chu Youyou, a popular girl idol back then, and their father is the boss of Dali Film and Television Company.When the brothers were 5 years old, their parents divorced.Tang Lou lived with Chu Youyou for 8 years. It was not until she remarried and was about to travel around the world with her new husband that he was taken back by his father.

Of course Tang Lou didn't like this arrangement, but what could a 13-year-old child do?

He pushed the suitcase and stood in front of the Tang's villa with a backpack on his back, not daring to knock on the door.Tang Dali said that he sent an assistant to pick him up.He waited at the train station for a long time without seeing anyone.I had no choice but to take a taxi by myself.

"A Jun, why are you pushing the suitcase?" Zhou Yu saw him from a distance and recognized the wrong person.

It was another person who admitted him wrongly, Tang Lou didn't have the mood to respond, and still lowered his head slightly.

Zhou Yu walked in front of him, paused for a moment, and exclaimed: "Are you Tang Lou?! Ah Jun said you would come today, but you have already arrived! He followed Sister Xin to pick you up."

Tang Lou didn't know who Sister Xin was, and he didn't know much about the overly enthusiastic white-clothed boy in front of him.

But he was also a little surprised. The other party just took a serious look at him, and he didn't recognize the wrong person.

He nodded slightly, admitting that he was Tang Lou.

"Great! Unexpectedly, I saw you first!" Zhou Yu stretched out his hand to help him carry the suitcase, but Tang Lou protected him sideways.

Zhou Yu noticed his dodge, and was not annoyed at all, but took out a lollipop from his pocket, peeled off the sugar coating, and stuffed it into Tang Lou's mouth: "Coconut flavor, delicious! By the way, My name is Zhou Yu."

Tang Lou doesn't like sugar.

But Tang Lou didn't have time to speak when the faint fragrance of coconut sugar diffused in his mouth, and the sweetness spread from the tip of his tongue into his throat.

He just thought, this candy is delicious.

Taking advantage of his blank moment, Zhou Yu helped push the suitcase, and entered the gate of Tang's house with ease.

Tang Lou wondered, if he hadn't met Zhou Yu that day, and hadn't eaten that candy, would he have looked at him less, would he not be tempted?

Well……

Neither will it.

Is it so important for a 14-year-old boy in white to give a piece of sweetness casually?

Tang Lou is not tempted by a candy, but by the person he met in the best years.

"What are you thinking, Professor Tang?" Zhou Yu woke up at some point, his voice was dry, and he couldn't hear the emotion inside.

Tang Lou was in a trance alone, when he heard Zhou Yu's sober voice, he didn't know how to respond for a while.He stood up quickly, but after sitting cross-legged on the ground for a long time, his legs were a little numb.

He staggered two steps back and forth, and then slowed down and did not fall.

That's it, at least he is a veritable associate professor, and he always makes embarrassments in front of Zhou Yu.

"I didn't think about anything." Tang Lou raised his eyes to look at Zhou Yu, and saw that the person on the bed had already woken up, staring straight at him with clear and bright eyes.

"I thought..." In the middle of speaking, Zhou Yu got up and got off the bed, and stood in front of Tang Lou, tiptoe to toe.

The height of the two is about the same, and there is not much difference.But Tang Lou didn't adjust his mentality. He didn't know how to face Zhou Yu, and his eyes were looking down.

Tang Lou waited for a while, but did not hear the following, and then asked: "Why?"

"Thought you were thinking of me!" Zhou Yu's mouth curled up slightly, and the words were ambiguous, but the tone was very alienated.

I was thinking of you.

Tang Lou squinted his eyes, he just got out of the shower, he didn't wear glasses, he was not used to it.He just felt that Zhou Yu in front of him was so real and fake that he couldn't believe that he was with him.

The glasses are probably still on the sink, do you want to get them?He wanted to make sure.

Just as he was thinking, his feet had turned to the bedroom door, ready to leave.

"Where are you going again?" Zhou Yu grabbed his arm, not giving him a chance to turn around, "Aren't you saying hello when you're back? Is that why you don't want to see me?"

"I don't." Tang Lou wasn't in a good mood either. Hearing what Zhou Yu said, he was a little anxious, "I'll go get my glasses."

"Don't you recognize me? It's only been two years!" Zhou Yu let go of his hands, raised his hands above his head and hugged them, teasing to ease the atmosphere, "Professor Tang is really amazing."

Tang Lou: "Are you still drunk?"

Zhou Yu: "..."

"Go to bed first when you're drunk, I'll go to the guest room." Tang Lou didn't understand the reason for Zhou Yu's inexplicable yin and yang aura, and didn't want to argue with another "drunk man".

An associate professor will only be in front of Zhou Yu, and he will be at a loss for words, and he will not know the content of the next sentence.

"I'm not drunk." Zhou Yu gritted his molars, his eyes patrolling Tang Lou's face.

"People who are drunk say they are not drunk." Tang Lou suddenly remembered the sentence he had heard before, and recalled that he was drunk last time and spoke incoherently, probably similar to Zhou Yu.

"Are you so eloquent?" Zhou Yu had never seen Tang Lou who could "talk back" so much.What a difference.

He breathed a sigh of relief and grinned.

The snow outside the window was already heavy, falling rustlingly.The night was deep and silent.

The two people in the room stalemate for a while, and finally Zhou Yu was defeated, lay back on the bed, and pulled away a corner of the blanket by the way.

He casually invited: "Let's sleep together."

Zhou Yu's movements were so natural that Tang Lou was in a daze.

Did you invite Tang Jun in the same way?Or, do you prefer that the person standing here is Tang Jun?

Tang Lou clenched his hands hanging by his sides, his short and flat nails firmly pressed against the palms, and a dull pain spread to the apex of his heart.

How ridiculous!

He likes Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu likes Tang Jun, Tang Jun doesn't know anything!

He left for two years, did Zhou Yu still fail to confess his love?

Also, the risk of confession is so great, anyway, work and life are almost inseparable, and there is not much difference.

"I am... Tang Lou." It took him a while to say these words, and the pause was longer for the word Tang Lou.

"Uh? What?" Zhou Yu lay sideways on the bed, his face already a little unhappy, "I know who you are! I'm not stupid!"

"I'm not Tang Jun." Tang Lou's heart trembled even more, the blood from his limbs kept rushing back, and his bare feet felt cold.

"What are you doing so weirdly!"

"..."

"Of course I know you are Tang Lou. The youngest associate professor in the Department of Archeology of Y University, he ran to the leader of the African Joint Archaeological Team without saying a word. He stayed there for two years without hearing from him. Are you researching some kind of elixir of immortality or something?" What shocking treasure are you looking for? One phone call, not one message!"

"Zhou Yu..."

"Why did I say something wrong? This person is not you?"

"I called."

"Yes. You did! You called Mr. Tang, Tang Jun, Siqi, and even Xiao Meng. Just...just don't contact me."

Tang Lou's frown became tighter and tighter, he really couldn't grasp the point of this conversation.

Is Zhou Yu angry?Because I didn't contact him?

Should not be ah.

Obviously, that day he said...

He says……

The more Zhou Yu talked, the angrier he got, he woke up from the wine, and he didn't feel sleepy at all.He got up abruptly, knocked open the tenement building, and walked straight to the door.

"Where are you going?"

"What do you say? Go home!"
