Mid-Levels Farm

The sun was strong, and the garden in the mansion was full of music, champagne, balloons and flowers. The teenagers had just finished their exams and gathered in the Lin family villa to have fun together.

Xuan Xiaodong came out of the water like a happy fish, wiped his face, and dripped water on the handrail of the swimming pool to get ashore. Under the sun, his skin was as firm as honey, and his hands and feet were gleaming. The slender, naked body in swimming trunks is clearly visible in the sun.He turned his head and saw Lin Yijin sitting under the parasol by the swimming pool staring at him at some point, so he smiled at him, but Lin Yijin suddenly turned his head, his face darkened, stood up, and swept the whole room The friend was left in the courtyard and went back to the room alone.

Xuan Xiaodong was taken aback, but he was used to his unpredictable character, knowing that he would be fine in a while, and the other teenagers were also immersed in the atmosphere of joy and nonsense, not paying attention to the departure of their master.

However, this time the Cold War started inexplicably.

From that day on, Lin Yijin, who went to school together, hardly spoke in the car. Although he was always cold and unapproachable, Xuan Xiaodong still felt alienated and bored.Obviously, it seemed that he had already obtained his friendship before, but he didn't know why, so he could only doubly please him, and then found that he got more obvious boredom and neglect.

Did his mother who was far away in a foreign country do something to offend him?He dare not ask, and he is not qualified to ask. He is a complete outsider in this family, a sojourner entrusted by his master's benevolence, a weak person who has no way to choose where he will go. He can only please everyone as much as possible. People, come to make yourself more comfortable. Many years later, someone told him that he is a pleasing personality, and he should live out himself. However, at this time, he is still too weak and does not know how to improve his situation. Live by intuition.

Being at a loss for what to do and being blamed at every turn, he could only remain silent in the end, and make a quiet background that can make everyone forget his existence. Going to school is unavoidable, so he can only go there in the same car, but after school, he can lie that there is something else to do in class, avoiding and Lin Yijin The embarrassment and restraint of going home in the same car.

Fortunately, Lin Yijin got an opportunity to study abroad for three months, and he was finally able to escape from this almost suffocating situation for a while. He had a good time with a few classmates who played well, and went to the Internet cafe to play under their guidance. A new sniper game.

The atmosphere of the Internet cafe made him relaxed and intoxicated. With his amazing hand speed and reaction speed, he soon won the admiration of the server players in this game. Team up to compete.

He was addicted to the game for a long time, and his grades dropped sharply.

However, after Lin Yijin returned to China, she suddenly changed her previous alienated attitude and regained her previous closeness. After school, she took the driver to an Internet cafe and took him home.

He was full of doubts, but he had already become wild and wasted a few months. How could he learn it? Lin Yijin took the trouble, asked him which game he played in the Internet cafe, and generously promised to complete a set of exercise papers, and let him play. And really took his own computer to download the game.

With the bait of the game, Xuan Xiaodong calmed down and finished writing the paper carefully, then opened the game impatiently.

Lin Yijin took the paper to correct for him, and made many mistakes. He usually circled it with a red pen, but he didn't feel bored in his heart. He glanced at Xuan Xiaodong who was immersed in the game from time to time. Sometimes he is silent, but when he is playing games, his face is extremely rich, and his eyes staring at the game screen are almost sparkling.

He couldn't help teasing him: "If you can advance by more than 50 in the next grade test, I'll buy you a computer that can play games. What brand do you want? Comet?" Comet is a famous and expensive game-specific computer , superior performance, wide and bright curved screen brings the best gaming experience, of course, the price is also very expensive, it is the magical machine in the hearts of all players who love to play games.

Xuan Xiaodong's eyes lit up when he heard Comet, but he still shook his head: "Forget it, my grades this semester are at the bottom again, and I will be a sophomore next semester, and my mother will definitely scold me by then, or confiscate it. It's better to just secretly play with you and have fun, and when you graduate, you can go to a school in another place and go out, and then you will be free."

Lin Yijin smiled: "You study the common language well, and then I will take you abroad together."

Xuan Xiaodong was startled: "Going abroad?" He knew that going abroad required a lot of money, but he also knew that it would not be a problem in the Lin family, but why should he have nothing?

Lin Yijin's eyes fell on his thin and bright red lips: "No problem, you study hard, and if you can keep up, I will give you tutoring. I will teach you how to apply for a school. When the time comes, I will take you with you when you go abroad. You, don't be afraid to get used to it."

Xuan Xiaodong was silent and didn't speak, Lin Yijin didn't know that at this moment Xuan Xiaodong was thinking, Lin Yijin was hot and cold towards him, he was in a foreign country where he was not familiar with, and he didn't learn foreign languages ​​very well, so he could only go abroad if he really wanted to go abroad. Everything depends on him, and if he turns his back on him like he did a few days ago, what should he do?

Let's find a way to refuse, but he doesn't know how to refuse Lin Yijin, who seems to be too precious a favor from ordinary people, and it would be too ignorant to refuse directly, so he avoided this question and continued to play the game in silence.

Lin Yijin was used to Xuan Xiaodong never rejecting him, and said with a smile, "Then comet?"

Xuan Xiaodong shook his head: "Forget it, people say that the comet is a light that flashes when the headlights are on, and people who have a lot of money will only buy it. Other brands with similar configurations are only half the price, which is not worth that price at all. The price/performance ratio is too low. Don't buy it either."

Lin Yijin sneered: "Poor people look at cost performance. The key is whether you like it? It's worth it if you like it."

Xuan Xiaodong said: "I know you have money, but it's really not worth it, just because of those blinking lights." He pressed the keyboard quickly: "It's fine with you, but the screen is a bit small. "Because he was staring at the screen intently, he lowered his head, revealing his smooth back neck. Under the light, his skin is delicate, and his back muscles under a thin shirt are tight. Lin Yijin stared at that back, and his Adam's apple rolled slightly: "It can be bought with money. It’s good enough to like it, but I’m afraid that money can’t buy what I like.”

Xuan Xiaodong clicked the mouse: "I see, the problems that can be solved with money are not problems. It's really the tune of rich people."

Lin Yijin looked at the expression on his face that became extraordinarily vivid when he was playing the game: "Is the game really so fun?"

Xuan Xiaodong said: "It's fun, my gunslinger is not called for nothing, the gun is not in vain! There are many good friends in there, they are very loyal, you come to play too? I will take you, and I promise to let you go to the drill."

Lin Yijin snorted: "People who are addicted to games are addicted to games because they lack instant rewards in their lives. After completing any task, they will immediately receive reward feedback. What a wonderful dopamine. However, scientific research has proved that only those who can endure Long-term efforts, not indulging in instant rewards, in order to achieve goals, only those who learn to delay gratification can achieve success."

Xuan Xiaodong laughed: "Yeah, you're right. The problem is, what if you find out that you don't want that reward when you work hard, struggle, and wait for the reward? Or the reward is gone, Wouldn't it be regrettable? It's better to have a good time first!"

Looking back many years later, Lin Yijin felt that Xuan Xiaodong's words came true - he realized their future with his keen intuition at that time.

Both of them had just entered the second year of high school that year, and their father and stepmother had been abroad with their two children, mainly to treat Lin Yiqi's illness.Because of the family genetics of the Lin family, the younger sister, Lin Yiqi, has hereditary congenital heart disease. She underwent three thoracotomy operations within one year of age, and received numerous critical illness notices.Feeling guilty, Lin Ruofei brought her remarried wife and twins to live abroad to treat her illness. Only the two of them lived in the villa with a driver and a nanny, which also allowed Lin Yijin to implement her plan conveniently.

Lin Yijin put a lot of thought into improving Xuan Xiaodong's grades, tutoring each subject, and Xuan Xiaodong quickly indulged in this extraordinary tenderness and consideration, and didn't realize what was wrong.

He delicately and carefully let the other party get used to his care and control. Xuan Xiaodong was used to studying in Lin Yijin's room until late at night and after playing a game, his eyes were blurred and Lin Yijin dragged her to sleep on his bed until dawn, getting used to everything Life, every day's schedule, is arranged by Lin Yijin, and Lin Yijin decides everything.

Like a patient hunter, Lin Yijin slowly lures the prey into her circle of control.He slowly let the other party get used to physical contact with him, and bought him all items, books, accessories, and clothes.He carefully formulated the tutoring plan. He decided on the other party's hairstyle and clothes every day. He shaped the other party into his favorite look bit by bit. Even the underwear and socks were picked by himself. The body wash is also my favorite scent.

He seemed to be brewing a jar of wine, and during this slow fermentation process, Xuan Xiaodong made him more and more intoxicated—the boy was originally good-looking, but after he thought about it carefully, he was even more eye-catching. Walking, always attracting people's attention and being coveted by countless girls, but no one can approach the treasure belonging to the evil dragon, and he is completely under his own supervision.

Only he can be near him.In the middle of the night after the other party fell into a deep sleep countless times, he stroked his dark and soft hair, touched his soft thin lips, pressed against his cool and delicate skin, and grabbed his slender fingers and kneaded them in his hands , Looking at his sleepy and ignorant face, the fierce beast in his heart roared day by day.

He boiled a frog in warm water and took him to watch foreign films with same-sex themes, related books, magazines, and pictures, implicitly guiding him to discover his sexuality, and comforting Xuan Xiaodong when he was at a loss. he.

When Xuan Xiaodong was trembling, blushing and closing his eyes, not daring to face the unbelievable loss of control and happiness of his body under his help, and embarrassingly trying to avoid his hot and callused fingertips, he bowed down contentedly head, kissed his lips lightly, and harvested his most satisfying work for a year.

By the end of the second year of high school, they were already inseparable in the eyes of outsiders.

But Xuan Xiaodong was too shy and refused to make the last step with him. He was not satisfied, but he was also very patient. The longer the time, the sweeter the wine would be.

But in the summer vacation during the second year of high school and the third year of high school, the father and stepmother suddenly returned to China with the twins, saying that Yiqi's condition had been brought under some control, and that Lin Yijin was about to be in the third year of high school, so they came back to accompany him.

Like a frightened snail, Xuan Xiaodong retracted into its shell in an instant, returning to the taciturn state, and quickly alienated Lin Yijin.

Lin Yijin was very dissatisfied as she had just tasted the marrow and tasted it.But Xuan Xiaodong is very stubborn, and he can't force it. On the surface, he has to be kind to his stepmother and his half siblings who just returned to China.

For Xuan Xiaodong's sake, he had a rare respect for Lu Xiaozhu, and a little more patience for Lin Yiyu and the sick and frail Lin Yiqi.

This made Lu Xiaozhu very flattered. She knew that her stepson's mother's family was a noble family in the capital. She had always been careful with him since she married, but the other party had always been cold and reserved. She didn't expect that he would respect her now. He also took good care of his two younger siblings, which can be called considerate and gentle.

Lu Xiaozhu reciprocated Lin Yijin more and more, and tried her best to please Lin Yijin. She encouraged Lin Yiyu and Lin Yiqi to befriend and get in touch with this big brother more. Lin Yiqi's illness has consumed her too much energy over the years, and she will also All hope is poured into the only healthy Lin Yiyu.

A person's energy is limited, so she naturally ignored Xuan Xiaodong who had always been silent and invisible.

The twins' closeness to Lin Yijin made Xuan Xiaodong even more afraid of being discovered by his younger siblings, and kept hiding from Lin Yijin even further, shutting himself in the room silently almost every day.

This made Lin Yijin very dissatisfied, and one incident aroused his anger.

The dinners of the Lin family are always quiet and warm, and Xuan Xiaodong usually goes back to the room and closes the door after eating quickly, trying to minimize his sense of existence.However, Lin Ruofei, who was so satisfied with Tianzhi and only felt that the family was harmonious and his career was going well, was rarely concerned about the future of his stepson: "Xiaodong's test scores are not bad now? Yijin said that he will apply for schools for you together, and now we can start to give it to him." You apply for a passport or something, after the exam you can go abroad and travel there with Yijin in advance, to experience it in advance."

A smile appeared on Lu Xiaozhu's face: "It really bothered Yijin. If the time is right, should Yiyu go and have a look together?"

Lin Yiyu raised her doll-like face slightly, and looked at Lin Yijin expectantly. Lin Yiqi said aggrievedly, "I want to go too."

Lin Yijin said gently: "Yiyu should stay with Yiqi, and I will take you on vacation together when I find a chance in the future, and find a suitable place for Yiqi to go."

Lu Xiaozhu smiled, and quickly pushed Xuan Xiaodong aside: "Thank you, Uncle Lin and Yijin."

Xuan Xiaodong raised his eyes, feeling a little apprehensive, but still mustered up his courage: "Thank you, Uncle Lin, but I don't want to go abroad, I want to go to a military academy."

The atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly froze.

Lin Yijin looked at Xuan Xiaodong with cold eyes, as if something had escaped her control.

Lin Ruofei smiled and said, "Being in the army? It's very hard, and the management is strict. You are still too young. You and Yijin will go abroad to study, and you will work in the company after graduation, so you can help him."

Xuan Xiaodong didn't dare to look at Lin Yijin, his shirt was soaked with sweat on his back, but he still insisted, "Thank you, Uncle Lin, but I think the military academy is fine. I'm not good at foreign languages, and I'm not interested in business. Forget it."

The military academy covers everything, the tuition is free, and the score is not very high. He has inquired with the teacher privately, and his current grades are not a big problem in the military academy.He didn't want to owe the Lin family any more love, and he needed to repay that kind of favor for the rest of his life, so he didn't want to owe any more.These days, when his stepfather and biological mother came back, the suffocating weight surrounded him again, reminding him every moment how much he owed the family.

They are a family. The twins basically don't talk to him, and they never call him brother. Their brother is Lin Yijin, and he is not worthy.He desperately longs for independence, longs to leave this home, and he will repay the kindness. Of course, this kindness is too great, and he knows it will be difficult to repay, so he doesn't want to owe any more.

The secret relationship with Lin Yijin made him even more restless. Once the incident happened, what would Uncle Lin think of him?The sweetness between him and Lin Yijin has turned into a fright that made him sleepless all night. The destructive possibility almost made him desperately want to escape from this house immediately. He and Lin Yijin will have no future, and he doesn't want to have any with him either. What future.

Lin Yijin suddenly put down her chopsticks, got up and left her seat, and returned to the room with a cold face.

Lu Xiaozhu didn't expect it, he was embarrassed and angry and said to Xuan Xiaodong: "What's the matter with you child? I heard from my aunt that Yijin tutors you every day, why don't you know what's good and what's wrong?"

Xuan Xiaodong drooped his eyelashes, while Lin Ruofei smiled broadly and said, "Children always have their own ideas when they grow up, so take your time, Xiaodong, think about it again, it's not easy to apply for a school, and Yijin even found his grandfather The favours, it is understood that a famous foreign professor issued a letter of guarantee for you, all for the sake of Grandpa Yijin, it will be difficult to have such a good opportunity in the future, you are still young, and you do not understand the preciousness of opportunities. "

Xuan Xiaodong didn't say a word, and ate in silence.

Lin Yijin once again had a cold war with Xuan Xiaodong.

His position in this family is supernatural, his mother's family is noble, and Lin Ruofei also relies on his Yue's family, holding the huge inheritance left to him by his mother, so he can't put any airs about his father on him.Both the stepmother and the twins pose no threat to his status and can only please him in every possible way.

As soon as he got angry, the atmosphere of the whole family became stiff instantly.

Lu Xiaozhu approached Xuan Xiaodong to persuade him in every possible way: "What's wrong with going abroad? After you come back from business studies, you will naturally have a place in Uncle Lin's company. You may not know how big your Uncle Lin's company is... you Be an executive in there, help Yijin manage the company, and have a safe future, and when your brother grows up, you can also help him a little bit."

Xuan Xiaodong just kept silent and never let go.

Lu Xiaozhu has a weak temper, but she also got angry: "You child, you are an ungrateful white-eyed wolf!" She was so angry that she couldn't say anything more, but the words of white-eyed wolf were heavy enough for Xuan Xiaodong to raise his hand. Raising his eyes to look at her, the circles of his eyes slowly turned red.

Seeing such gazes, Lu Xiaozhu felt her heart tremble for some reason, and suddenly felt that she didn't understand her eldest son, but at this moment, she was furious, and just said to Xuan Xiaodong: "I don't care what you do, your own future , I can’t control you! But you have to apologize to Yijin. How did they treat you? Don’t you know good from bad? If you don’t reconcile with him, how will you let us stand in this family? How do you let your mother deal with it? He? Didn't you see how embarrassing your younger brother and sister were these two days? "

Xuan Xiaodong was silent for a long time, and said in a low voice, "I'll go and apologize to him." He was indeed sorry for Lin Yijin, but he really didn't want to go abroad, and when he thought of the way his mother arranged for him to always be attached to the Lin family, he felt even stronger. Suffocation, this is not the life he wants.

Lu Xiaozhu said: "Tomorrow is your Uncle Lin's birthday, and there will be many guests at home, please apologize as soon as possible, and don't make your Uncle Lin unhappy." She suddenly felt wronged in the middle of speaking, and she shed tears: "Xiao Dong, you don't understand mother's difficulties... Mom also has to think about your younger siblings...your sister is not in good health..."

Xuan Xiaodong looked at her beautiful and strange mother who shed tears. Although she was over [-] years old and had three children, she was still astonishingly beautiful. She was wearing elegant luxury clothes, and her tears were moving... Actually It didn't move him that much, maybe he was really a white-eyed wolf, he lowered his eyelashes: "I will apologize."

The next day, the guests came like a cloud, and Xuan Xiaodong knocked on Lin Yijin's door in the morning.

Lin Yijin opened it and saw him, without saying a word, turned around and walked inside, sat back in front of her desk, and said coldly, "What are you doing here?"

Xuan Xiaodong closed the door with his backhand, put a plate of snacks in his hand on the round table by the door, leaned against the door and looked at Lin Yijin's indifferent side face, guilt surged up: "I'm here to apologize to you - I just made it Thousand-layer apple crisp."

The freshly baked apple crisps have the unique sweet aroma of butter and apples, which Lin Yijin used to love.

Lin Yijin turned her head and glanced at him: "Have you agreed to go abroad?"

Xuan Xiaodong was at a loss for words, and after a while whispered: "Yijin, I don't want to go abroad." He couldn't express his desire to leave the Lin family, but he felt ashamed of Lin Yijin. All his self-esteem was shattered, but he still humbly expected to have a little life of his own.

Lin Yijin turned her face away: "Get out."

Xuan Xiaodong lowered his eyelashes: "I'm sorry." It's useless to say more, Lin Yijin is a cloud in the sky, he is the mud in the field, he has no way to let Yun understand the difference between cloud and mud, and his thoughts have never been different with Lin Yijin. unimportant.

In other words, it doesn't matter to anyone, but he still humbly wants to persevere, and wants to keep his precarious self-esteem.

He turned around to open the door, but Lin Yijin suddenly said, "Wait."

Xuan Xiaodong turned around, and Lin Yijin said calmly, "The computer on the sofa over there is bought for you. I promised you to take it away."

Xuan Xiaodong glanced at the table next to the casual velvet sofa, and there was indeed a computer with a striking comet logo on the outer packaging.

There was a burst of sourness in his heart. No matter what, Lin Yijin treated him very well, but he had nothing, nothing to repay, and he couldn't agree to go abroad. This was his only insistence.He pressed the doorknob with his hand, and said in a low voice, "I'll do everything for you except going abroad..."

Lin Yijin said coldly: "Xuan Xiaodong, you have no heart. I took you abroad for our future, but you only want to leave me and leave me."

Xuan Xiaodong drooped his eyelashes, he really felt ashamed.

Lin Yijin saw him drooping eyelashes, his face was extremely aggrieved and sad, but he refused to let go, his heart was crumpled like a ball of crumpled paper, he hated him, but he couldn't let him go, thinking of this man, he suddenly became stubborn, I'm afraid it won't be as easy to handle as before. In the past, whenever he got angry, Xuan Xiaodong would come to apologize that day, and never let this anger last overnight.

This time he was serious, and because of this, the rage in Lin Yijin's heart could not be suppressed.He stared at the thin red lips and the long hanging eyelashes, wishing he could step up and kill this man immediately, let him know that he is his own, every inch from hair to toes is his own of.

You have to slow down and use another way to coax this person. Lin Yijin took a deep breath and softened his voice: "Do you really want me to forgive you? Come here."

Xuan Xiaodong walked over slowly and looked at Lin Yijin. Lin Yijin was sitting there, looking up at him slightly: "Come here and kiss me, so I won't be angry with you."

Xuan Xiaodong was a little uneasy: "The door is not locked."

Lin Yijin's face darkened: "Are you scared?" Who would dare to come into his room casually?

Xuan Xiaodong saw that his face was gloomy, and he was most afraid that he would ignore him, so he stepped forward, lowered his head slightly and quickly, and kissed Lin Yijin's lips, but Lin Yijin grabbed her waist and pressed her into her arms In the midst of it, he gnawed fiercely at the mouth of this hateful person.

The young man's anger is too easy to stir up, not to mention Lin Yijin is angry, and the other party's smell is too sweet. With the other hand, he pressed Xuan Xiaodong hard to prevent him from struggling, while kissing the other party fiercely.

The door opened, and Lin Ruofei's voice came: "Yijin, your uncle is here..."

The sound stopped abruptly.

The biggest quarrel ever between father and son broke out in the study that night.In the end, Lin Yijin said coldly to her biological father: "Can you control me?" He slammed the door and went out. The mansion was extremely quiet. He rushed out of the gate in a rage, and drove to live with his uncle.

Only later did he know that Lu Xiaozhu had his pulse cut that night, and Lin Yiqi had a heart attack.

He remembered that he should take Xuan Xiaodong with him and leave home. When he returned to the Lin residence, Xuan Xiaodong was already gone.

He didn't know how Xuan Xiaodong faced his biological mother's suicide and his younger sister's illness, and he didn't know how Xuan Xiaodong faced his furious father.

When he left, he didn't expect what kind of situation he would be in. He regretted countless times that night, he should have taken Xuan Xiaodong with him.

But he never saw Xuan Xiaodong again.

No matter how lonely Lin Yijin was, he was still just a high school student without independence. When his biological father and his grandfather tacitly joined forces to hide him, they could easily erase a person from his world.

As for this, he applied to a foreign school a year later, went through a one-year withdrawal period, and met countless people in the new school, and the face of that boy was even blurred in his memory.Those emotions that he once regarded as treasures seem to have become irresponsible and childish impulses when he was young.

He also suddenly realized one day that it was impossible for him to get Xuan Xiaodong back with his uncle's help. Without his own strength, he was doomed to lose the treasure he most longed for.

The elders thought that he was just acting impulsively. When time passed and he got to know different people, he would forget about the unseemly young man who made the Lin family and the Xia family involved. They could only be parallel lines.

He completely gave up these things, went abroad, studied, and then began a long period of rebellion against his parents and grandparents. He has decided to settle abroad and put everything down.

He thought that time had wiped everything away, and it was impossible to turn back in life, until that video suddenly left the lively Xuan Xiaodong in front of him, he changed, but he didn't change.

Because he rekindled the desire in his heart as easily as before, as if his dead heart suddenly beat again, and the strong longing and burning desire that belonged to humans returned to his body, the things he thought he had buried Feelings were all revived again, and came with intensity and speed.

He quickly rejected the teaching position, resigned, packed the furniture, sold the house under trusteeship, and returned to China as quickly as possible.

This is an incredible fate, he wants to make up for him, he wants to have him again, he still loves him.
