You said you were a little hard to chase

Because Zhou Ce was too straightforward, Zhou Liejian made a series of calls immediately before he got off work, vowing to urge Zhou Ce home.

Zhou Ce was annoyed by being urged, but fortunately he got off work and went home early.After he told Shen Shu on his mobile phone that he would be home late, he went straight to his home.

Because the winter solstice is coming soon, the atmosphere at home is very strong, and it is rare for Zhou Ce to see all the servants at home smiling.

What's even more rare is that Zhou Liejian didn't talk to Zhou Ce immediately after he came back, but just asked him to wait for him in the study.

But Zhou Ce has always been used to being casual, so he didn't listen to Zhou Liejian's words and obediently went to the study to wait for him.

After returning to the room, taking a shower, and playing some games, he walked slowly to Zhou Lijian's study room.

Zhou Liejian's study room is on the third floor, and he doesn't usually come to this place.In my impression, apart from Zhou Liejian's study, there is a small ancestral hall here.

The sky in winter always gets dark quickly, and sometimes it will be lost in the blink of an eye.

Zhou Ce turned on the light and pushed open the door of the ancestral hall.

He saw his mother's name written on it.

I went over to light incense, and wanted to pat off the ash on the food.It is basically impossible for the servants here to come here. Basically, Zhou Liejian cleans it by himself, so it is not clean but very tidy.

Zhou Ce sighed and put the incense on the ash stove.

The room was not lit and the curtains were drawn.From Zhou Ce's perspective, the faint light cast a little dust on the ground.

Suddenly, the front lighted up.Unable to adapt, Zhou Ce squinted his eyes, and when he turned around, he saw Zhou Liejian standing at the door wearing a coat.

He said, "Why are you here?"

He seemed to be preoccupied, and he could smell the smoke on his body a few meters away. It was so strong that Zhou Ce didn't even notice that he was frowning.

Zhou Ce said lightly: "Let's smoke less, you think your life is short, don't you?"

The other party coughed, walked into the room, stood in front of Zhou Ce's mother for a long time, and then raised his hand to insert the incense.

There was weakness in the coughing sound, and even the movements were a little heavy.In fact, he called Zhou Ce back because he was thinking about him and Shen Shu. He didn't object to who Zhou Ce fell in love with, but he was afraid that Zhou Ce's temper would hurt the other party.Shen Shu is a stuffy person, he has always been hiding things in his heart.But Zhou Ce's temperament is not willing to hide things, so there are always conflicts.

He didn't even want Zhou Ce to become like himself, not paying attention to his partner's emotions, causing her to jump down, leaving only the two of them, father and son.

Zhou Liejian looked in front of him and raised his hand to pat the ashes that had just fallen on the food.

Said softly: "Your mother likes to insert incense at an angle."

Zhou Ce didn't answer, he saw Zhou Lie prosecuting Fang's ashes in the same posture as himself.He suddenly laughed, as expected of a father and son, some habits are really engraved in his bones.

"Well, I see." Zhou Ce looked back and found a chair leaning against the wall, walked over and sat down, "If you have anything to say, just say it in front of your mother."

Zhou Liejian's hand paused, and then recovered immediately.

He turned around, only to see Zhou Ce lowered his eyes slightly, looking gentle and obedient.

For a moment, Zhou Liejian's advice stuck in his throat.He didn't know whether it was right or wrong to do so, and he didn't know whether his words would affect the relationship between Zhou Ce and Shen Shu.

Walk over and stand in front of Zhou Ce.

Zhou Liejian sighed slightly, lowered his voice and said, "You and Xiao Shu—"

"Advise me to break up?" Zhou Ce asked.After speaking, I laughed, "What am I doing, don't worry, we are not together yet."

Not together yet?Zhou Ce is so useless?Is it so difficult to chase someone? !Zhou Lijian's first reaction was that Zhou Ce really didn't inherit his excellent chasing genes.

Contemptuous of Zhou Ce, Zhou Liejian still wants to have a good chat with Zhou Ce about his personality.

He found a corner and squatted down, and said, "Dad still wants to say that you and Xiaoshu are not suitable."

Zhou Ce squinted at the past, hugged his chest, and said with a facial expression, "I don't listen."

He stood up and offered his seat to Zhou Lijian.

"I don't think so." While talking, he pulled Zhou Liejian to sit up and finally put his hands on Zhou Liejian's shoulders, saying word by word: "Don't worry, I won't be like you."

Zhou Ce didn't mean anything else, he was just telling Zhou Liejian that he couldn't be the second him.

But obviously, he hit Zhou Lijian's sore spot.

I saw Zhou Liejian's eyes moved to the other side, and then he didn't say anything.

Zhou Ce doesn't plan to stay for a long time either, whoever he falls in love with or who he spends with has nothing to do with Zhou Lijian.He doesn't need Zhou Lijian to tell himself that he should do it himself, he just needs to follow his heart.

"Let's go, you should smoke less in the future, if you really can't do it, find someone to take care of you." Zhou Ce said.

His words caused Zhou Lijian's calm heart to suddenly surge. In the past, Zhou Ce refused to let Zhou Lijian remarry because of his mother's death.And Zhou Lijian was afraid that Zhou Ce would develop a rebellious mentality. He was just such a precious child, so he had been alone for so long.

Zhou Ce was not at home for such a long time, and he couldn't see some things, but Zhou Liejian knew that his health was getting worse...

People will grow old, Zhou Liejian has no taboos about it, he just wants to see Zhou Ce happy in his lifetime.

Zhou Liejian grinned, and he agreed, "Understood, you should also find someone to take care of you."

Zhou Ce's footsteps froze, and after careful reading of these words, he realized that Zhou Liejian did not force him to sever ties with Shen Shu.

A smile stained the corners of his mouth with a tacit understanding, Zhou Ce nodded, "Let's go."

They are like ordinary father and son talking, for love, for the trivial matters of life, without bitterness or hatred.

Zhou Ce felt that this was the most comfortable conversation he had with Zhou Liejian. It was no longer mixed with interests, but only the most ordinary heart-to-heart.

So he decided to stay at home for one night, and told Zhou Lijian that he would definitely catch up with Shen Shu within two months.

The old and the young at the dinner table were arguing with each other.

Zhou Liejian shouted, "Impossible! Do you think Shen is alienated from you?"

"Why is it impossible?! Shen Shu is not bad to me now." Zhou Ce frowned.

"Not bad? Not bad, and you still ignore you now? You haven't inherited your excellent genes from me!" Zhou Lijian said emphatically, he just wanted to see how long Zhou Ce could be forced Ken acted, "You are not very good at it."

"It's not good for me to go to you." Zhou Ce threw away the pillow, got up and went to the refrigerator to get a bottle of beer to drink, and walked back to the sofa while drinking, "What do you mean I can't do it? You can do it? Old man, you have to do it Why are you still single now? Oh, so you are not as good as me, at least I still have Shen Shu, you have a fart."

Zhou Ce's ridicule was too obvious, making Zhou Lijian's head buzzing with anger.

"Go away, don't be an eyesore in front of me." Zhou Lie said.

After Zhou Ce took a few steps with the beer, Zhou Liejian suddenly regretted it.

With some tentative questions, "Do you really agree with me looking for a partner?"

Zhou Ce's long voice sounded, "Bullshit, when did your son backtrack?"

From childhood to adulthood, Zhou Ce said that if he hates it, he hates it, and if he doesn't like it, he doesn't like it. If he says he hates it, he hates Zhou Liejian for many years, until one day suddenly, he finds that Zhou Lijian is very pitiful.

At that time, he was shocked to realize how ignorant and ridiculous his past was.

Time can bury everything and illuminate everything.

In fact, it was not a hatred for Zhou Liejian, but a punishment for his own powerlessness.

Zhou Ce is not a saint, and it is impossible to see Zhou Lie's lack of emotion when he is subdued.

Stepping up to the second floor, the slippers echoed in the wooden corridor, beating Zhou Ce's heart.

Zhou Ce pushed away from his room, where there were photos of himself when he was a child, but since his mother passed away, there were no more photos.

He caressed those photos, his eyes full of memories.

Thinking of my father playing behind my back, my mother telling me not to open the door to strangers, and thinking of many people.

As time passed, he gradually separated from these people, met again, and separated again.

In fact, the photographer is not very fond of taking pictures. He just wants to feel the ups and downs of life, but he doesn't want to be the subject in life.At least, Zhou Ce doesn't like taking pictures.

He paused, took out his mobile phone, imported the photos taken by Shen Shu to the computer, and went to the printer to wait.

In addition to not having a studio, there are other things in his room. Sometimes Zhou Ce wonders if this is a kind of convenience in life.Because he came from a family of photographers, he was able to get a good education.But what can you do after learning it?He still doesn't know.

The photo was washed out, Zhou Ce found a photo frame and put it on. Just as he put the things on the cabinet, he heard someone send a message on his mobile phone.

He opened it and saw that it was Shen Shufa's voice.

"You print out the photos from the last time gathering." Shen Shu said unhurriedly, as if he was looking at something pleasant, so he lazily sent a voice to Zhou Ce.

Zhou Ce smiled and clicked on the microphone, "Understood, Mr. Shen."

Zhou Ce always speaks with a tinge of hoarseness, and he is used to speaking in a lazy tone, which also tickles people's hearts.

After sending, I didn't see Shen Shu send a message for a long time, I saw that the other party on the dialog box was typing all the time.

Zhou Ce knew that Shen Shu was thin-skinned, so after a chuckle, he went to edit the photos from the last collection.

Although those photos are not beautiful, they always have the magic power that people can't take their eyes off.

After thinking about it, Zhou Ce organized the photos and put them on the bedside table to give to Shen Shu tomorrow.

Although he wanted to take this group of photos to participate in the New Talent Award, but selfishly felt that it was art and shouldn't be so commercial.

That's why Zhou Ce never told Shen Shu that he had prepared the explanations needed to participate in the New Talent Award.

The sky was so dark that the moon could not be seen clearly, Zhou Ce pushed open the window, only to feel a gust of cold wind blowing on his face.

He imitated the way Shen Shu stood on the balcony, closed his eyes gently, and felt the world.

He heard the whistle not far away, the sound of servants sweeping the floor and talking nearby, the sound of leaves being blown by the wind, and the voice in his heart.

The voice was so blurry that I couldn't hear what was said at all. Zhou Ce tried hard to hear it, but he couldn't understand it clearly.

It wasn't until Zhou Ce opened his eyes that he heard the words in his heart.

"Do it if you want."

The ringtone suddenly came to mind, Zhou Ce turned his head and saw the phone on the bed, took it and swipe to answer it.

The other party still had the same old accent, greasy as hell.

Bai Ying said, "Honey, come out tonight and have fun."

"I'm at home." Zhou Ce said.

Bai Ying seemed to be drunk, hiccupped and said immediately: "Hello at home, I'll drink with you, oh yes, and Mr. Shen."

"In the old house."

Bai Ying: ... Fuck.

Hang up the phone with a snap.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Ce was inexplicably flustered. He sent a message to Zhou Liejian to say hello, and then went straight home.Chapter 53 He saw Shen Shu crying

His heart was pounding more and more, and Zhou Ce vaguely felt that something was going to happen.

He made several phone calls to Shen Shu on the way, but they all got through but no one answered.

When they arrived at the community, Zhou Ce stood downstairs and went down to look at Shen Shu's home.

The place that was usually filled with soft lights was now as dark as hell.Zhou Ce was a little hesitant to go forward, he wanted to go forward, but he was afraid of seeing something that Shen Shu didn't want him to see.

The moonlight was very thick, Zhou Ce turned his gaze to the moon sky, only to see dark clouds covering the moon, and then thinly dispersed.

A whistle sounded, and Zhou Ce came back to his senses, realizing that he had been standing here for some time.

He bowed his head and stepped into the corridor.

The elevator was fast and smooth, but Zhou Ce's heart was beating wildly.

He was afraid that something would happen to Shen Shu, but also afraid that nothing would happen to Shen Shu.

Zhou Ce stroked the elevator button with his fingertips, and when he counted to ten, the elevator opened, and there was silence in front of him.

There is nothing, calm as a clear water, except that water is still water.

He stepped out of the elevator, and instead of going straight to Shen Shu's house, he went to his own house first.

I heard Bai Ying's answer just now that it was outside.

If Shen Shu knew that Bai Ying was not at home and he was not at home, what would he do?Will you call Yi Lian to discuss what to choose for Carnation?Or stand on the balcony and look at the brightly lit street again?

Zhou Ce glanced at his balcony, paused, and walked over.But he walked very lightly and slowly, for fear of disturbing the air.

There was nothing on the balcony, not even nectarines going to the balcony.Zhou Ce stood on the balcony and looked over there, only to see a ray of moonlight shining on the ground, causing a period of haze.

It turned out that nothing happened.

Zhou Ce sighed softly, and looked at Nectarine beside him.

He walked over, picked up the nectarine, and said softly, "Brother Tao, have you eaten yet?"

Did you have meal?The most common greeting, but he didn't know who to say it to right now.

Nectarine only thought that he was sick, and went crazy after returning home, and jumped out of Zhou Ce's arms with two flutters.

He just finished eating, so don't let Zhou Ce play tricks on him.

Elegantly walked to her rice bowl, and decided to have a double-cooked meal.

Zhou Ce was a little dazed when he saw that there was so much cat food and even chicken breast on Nectarine's previously empty plate.

He seems to know something...

Turning back suddenly, she came to Shen Shu's door.Just as Zhou Ce was about to enter the password, he saw that the door was not closed tightly.

He pushed open the door, and saw Shen Shu sitting on the sofa alone, sunk in darkness.

The moonlight shone on him, clearly illuminating the emotions on his face.

It is a sad mood, extreme sadness, which completely closes the whole body.

Zhou Ce seems to have returned to the time when he first met Shen Shu. At that time, Shen Shu was as cold as ice, and the ice would be melted as soon as you reached out, so he didn't dare to reach out afterwards.

He saw Shen Shu blinking lightly, and something glittering and translucent slipped across his face.

It's tears.

Bright tears.

Shen Shu is not a weak person, on the contrary, he is very strong, so sometimes Zhou Ce has nothing to do with him.

A person who is too independent will create a self-barrier, and it will be difficult for others to enter the heart and spy on the softest moment.

It's not that Zhou Ce has never seen Shen Shu collapse before, but this time, there is no reason, just distressed.

The heart throbbed and hurt, as if tens of thousands of hands were clutching the heart.

Shen Shu held a photo in his hand, he couldn't see anyone, he only knew that his fingertips were stroking the person in the photo.

Nothing, just silence.

He obviously only shed a few tears, but Zhou Ce felt that he seemed to have cried a lot.

pat.

Zhou Ce turned on the light.

The picture was illuminated by light, and he narrowed his eyes a little uncomfortable.

At this moment, he saw Shen Shu turned around and asked himself, "Why did you come back suddenly?"

Zhou Ce didn't know how to answer, he wanted to ask what happened to Shen Shu?But he couldn't say it, as long as he called Shen Shu's name, he felt like a stick in his throat.

As soon as she called Shen Shu, her heart hurt.

Shen Shu always thinks he is smart, but in fact he is stupider than anyone else.Clumsy, he wants to show everyone the subtle care, but he is afraid that others will not like it, so he does everything possible to act.

Just like now, Shen Shu's eyes are red as hell, but he can just pretend that nothing happened.

Zhou Ce actually didn't want Shen Shu to be like this, he could pretend to be strong and stubborn to the outside world, and he could even be ruthless.But a person will always get tired if he pretends for a long time, he will collapse emotionally, and even become depressed.

He can accept Shen Shu crying, or find a fault to scold Zhou Ce.

No, Shen Shu never said anything serious to him.

Even in the quarrel, Zhou Ce was never attacked.

Zhou Ce opened his mouth, but still couldn't speak, he walked over and hugged Shen Shu tightly.

Tight as a prison.

Shen Shu didn't know what happened to Zhou Ce, he only knew that Zhou Ce came back inexplicably, and hugged himself inexplicably.

The photo in his hand fell on the sofa, and then fell next to his legs. Zhou Ce could see it with just a glance. He knew that it was Shen Shu's father, his biological father.

Shen Shu remembered his inadvertence last time.

"Ashu, do you want to eat glutinous rice balls or dumplings during the winter solstice?" Zhou Ce asked hoarsely.

Shen Shu was a little dazed, he answered no, and it was no if he didn't answer.

After thinking for a while, he said, "I want to eat."

Raising his hand to slightly push Zhou Ce away, Shen Shu asked Zhou Ce to relax a little.

He didn't understand why Zhou Ce was so full of emotions all of a sudden.

"Your father won't give you food?" Shen Shu said.

He thought about it for a long time and only thought of this one thing to make Zhou Ce uncomfortable.

But Zhou Ce was not amused by him, he raised his hand and rubbed Shen Shu's head.

The hands go from the head to the eyebrows, and finally to the eyes.

Those red eyes became so pitiful, so innocent and hurt.

Zhou Ce placed his thumbs at the end of Shen Shu's eyes, wiping away the tears that were not completely dry.

He said, "Yes, I suddenly want to eat your cooking."

Only then did Shen Shu know why Zhou Ce did this. He smiled and took Zhou Ce's hand.

Blinking hard a few times, he didn't want to cry in front of Zhou Ce.

But he failed, because there was a little trembling when he opened his mouth.

Shen Shu stood up and was about to go to the kitchen, "What do you want to eat?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Ce grabbed his hand and refused to let go.

The eyelashes of his lowered eyes trembled again and again, and finally, as if mustering up his courage, he raised his head and looked at Shen Shu.

"I don't have anything to eat, just chat with me for a while." Zhou Ce said.

He spoke lightly, as if he was asking for Shen Shu's opinion.

Shen Shu knew that if he said no, Zhou Ce would never bring up today's matter again.But Zhou Ce's action of wiping his tears just now was so hot and scorching, it burned his heart to ashes.

At that moment, he realized that time is fate, don't care about the eyes of the world, and don't need to think about the future.

Zhou Ce was a mediocre person before, but Shen Shu still felt that he was not motivated.

But now, Shen Shu understands that there is no harm in being a little confused sometimes, and one can live a more relaxed or heartless life.

After sitting down on the sofa again, Zhou Ce lay down along Shen Shu's legs. He closed his eyes gently, waiting for Shen Shu to ask him.

He knew what Shen Shu wanted to say, and Shen Shu knew what Zhou Ce wanted to ask.

why cry?Why wait until everyone is gone before crying, why don't you turn on the lights?Why...can't you cry in front of Zhou Ce...

There are too many reasons why, Zhou Ce's mind seems to be about to explode at the moment.

The two sides have been deadlocked for a long time.In the end, Shen Shu was defeated.

He said softly, "My father's death day is coming."

Although Zhou Ce had prepared for a long time, his heart trembled when Shen Shu said it himself.

Opening his eyes slowly, he couldn't see Shen Shu's emotions clearly from Zhou Ce's angle, only felt that he spoke in a soft tone, and he was afraid that he would break down and cry if he put a little more emotion.

The fingertips touched Shen Shu's Adam's apple, and Zhou Ce touched it lightly.The slightly cool fingertips touched the hot skin, but they moved away as if they were scalded.

"En." Zhou Ce returned to him, waited for a while and asked again: "Do you want me to accompany you to see him?"

Hearing this, Shen Shu lowered his head and looked at Zhou Ce.

Zhou Ce's brows were gentle, revealing his love for Shen Shu.

Shen Shu smiled, and pinched Zhou Ce's face, "Don't act like you're suffering, it's not like you've lost your relatives."

Once upon a time, he also learned Zhou Ce's appearance, and started to make others laugh, instead of looking at others coldly.

Zhou Ce pursed his lips and shook off Shen Shu's hand. He raised his hand to pinch Shen Shu's face.

"I'm asking you, Mr. Shen."

On the one hand, Zhou Ce wants to make the atmosphere more relaxed, on the other hand, Zhou Ce doesn't want to change the topic.

He wanted to worship his father with Shen Shu openly, and wanted to participate in Shen Shu's life, instead of being able to have everything Shen Shu had but not being able to get his world.

Shen Shu was silent for a while, then said: "If you want, I will take you there."

"I think." Zhou Ce said quickly.

He spoke so quickly that Shen Shu almost had no time to react.

Zhou Ce also saw Shen Shu's daze, and then the two of them laughed.

Shen Shu said, "Okay, I'll show you."

As he said that, he wanted to remove Zhou Ce's hand pinching his face, he didn't want to be remarked and ugly.

But Zhou Ce didn't give him this chance, instead of pinching his face, he lifted his chin instead.

He scratched Shen Shu's chin all over, and didn't stop until Shen Shu's eyes began to show some dissatisfaction.

Sitting up straight, Zhou Ce hugged Shen Shu's waist and rubbed against Shen Shu's neck.

Ask him softly, "Why are you crying?"

Shen Shu was taken aback for a moment, then recovered.

He turned his head as if nothing had happened, "It's nothing."

"Tell the truth." Zhou Ce snapped his head back, and waited for Shen Shu to answer.Shen Shu was born stubborn and refused to say anything.Zhou Ce's gaze shifted somewhere, and he said, "If you don't say anything else, I'll kiss you."

Only then did Shen Shu lightly part her thin lips, and said, "I miss my dad."

He saw Zhou Ce's lips pursed slightly, and saw his eyes deepened and deepened, with emotions Shen Shu couldn't understand.

Shen Shu never liked to pursue these matters, but this time he especially wanted to know what Zhou Ce thought.

Will he feel that he is useless and weak.

But he waited for a long time and did not wait for Zhou Ce to speak.

After a long time, Zhou Ce raised his hand, gently rubbed the top of his hair, and then turned his hand to the earlobe.

The warmth from the rubbing of the fingertips made Shen Shu's neck turn red.

Zhou Ce stroked Shen Shu's earlobe slowly and gently.

Shen Shu heard Zhou Ce say, "I know."

He said he knew.

In this corner of the night, he knew that a young man was missing someone, that person was very important to him, had a great influence on him, and treated him very well, but he could never open his eyes and stroke Shen Shu's head .

Shen Shu's hair is very soft, uncle, I touched it for you.So in the future, let him take care of me.
