not in love

When the brothers and sisters of the Lin family returned home, Tan Chaolu was trimming the roses that Governor Lin had planted for Leslie in the flower garden in front of the door.

She didn't know that Lin Xie was going to Lin Xi's school this trip,

"Xixi, why are you dragging your brother out early in the morning? It's not like you don't know that now you know that your tired brother can't leave your brother."

"We're going to buy snacks for brother Zhijuan!"

Lin Xi raised the packing box in her hand, which contained the raspberry chaffers that they stopped to pick out when they passed by a Gran Scotch pastry shop on the way home.

"Mom, think about it. Brother Zhijuan has lived in Glensu for so long, and you only make him Chinese desserts like osmanthus cake and red bean cake every day. Maybe he misses the taste of Glensu?"

Lin Xi talked nonsense, in short, Tan Chaolu couldn't let Tan Chaolu know that she was hired by the school as a parent.

"Oh... that's true,"

Tan Chaolu nodded suspiciously, and boldly grabbed Lin Xie's sleeve when he was about to bypass her and enter the room.

"Lin...Lin Xie,"

"?"

Lin Xie paused, and glanced coldly at her hand tugging at her sleeve.

"Well, Zhizhi seems to have woken up... I heard the sound of a shower upstairs, why don't you go and see him first?"

"I'm going."

"Ah...then you go quickly."

Tan Chaolu quickly withdrew her hand.

After watching Lin Xie hurried upstairs, she turned her head and saw Lin Xi stealing a cake from the snack bag "bought for Yu Zhijuan" and feeding it to her mouth.

"You girl,"

Tan Chaolu said helplessly,

"Have you thought about what I told you yesterday? It's almost your birthday. Your father agreed to hold a party for you this time, not only to celebrate your birthday, but also to officially recognize you as his daughter. ...He is paving the way for you in the future, you must take it to heart."

"But does it have much to do with my choice of strawberry or blueberry filling for my birthday cake?"

Lindsay blinked her eyes.

"Of course it matters,"

Tan Chaolu said righteously,

"Although this kind of gathering is mostly for socializing, in the eyes of my mother, it is more important that you are celebrating your birthday. My mother hopes that you can be happy all day, and even if it is the taste of cake, I want to choose the one that suits your taste the most."

In the past few years, Lin Xi had been living abroad, and no one would have dared to take her home without Lin Xie's permission.

So it's also her first birthday with her family.

"Then I'll go ask brother Zhijuan,"

Lin Xi made up her mind and said,

"I want to lose weight, so I can't eat cakes, let's see what flavor brother Zhiwen prefers."

"Why don't you ask Brother Lin Xie?"

"Ask my brother and my brother will definitely say, 'I like whichever Yu Zhijuan likes', so I won't give him this chance."

Lin Xi said that he was imitating Lin Xie, raised his eyebrows and lowered his voice, making Tan Chaolu dumbfounded.

When Lin Xie came back this time, he could clearly feel that the pheromones belonging to the tiredness had faded a lot.

When he pushed open the bedroom door, along with the light scent of lemon, there was also a hot mist gushing out.

Yu Zhijuan, who had just taken a shower, was standing in front of the full-length mirror. He was only wearing a thin, loose pajamas, with his left shoulder half-slung, exposing a large area of ​​skin that was still covered in water mist.

Yu Zhijuan was carefully observing the freshly healed wound on his left shoulder, so he didn't notice Lin Xie who suddenly appeared, until the figure smeared with the fragrance of vetiver had already pressed beside him.

"Lin Xie?"

Yu Zhijuan raised his eyes and got dressed at the same time.

"The matter at Linxi School has been settled?"

"Ah."

Lin Xie leaned over to bite his shoulder, and easily inserted his fingers into the loose hem of his clothes, pulling him up from the waist.

"Can the eyes see?"

"Woke up this morning and recovered."

Seeing that Zhijuan is so clear-headed, the susceptibility period is probably over.

Otherwise, it's time to pin Lin Xie on the bed and bite him now.

"Why are you?"

Yu Zhijuan pressed Lin Xie's hand on his waist, his eyes were clear and sly, restraining Lin Xie's next move.

Sure enough, after the susceptibility period, it is not so easy to take advantage of the cheap.

Lin Xie sighed with a low smile,

"Yesterday you were not like this."

"What can I be?"

Yu Zhijuan raised his eyebrows, it seemed that he was planning to deny all the things he had done a few days ago.

"I even need to feed you water,"

Lin Xie clicked on the phone while talking, opened the recording file,

"What do you say?"

Yu Zhijuan's eyelids twitched slightly, and before he raised his hands to cover his ears, Lin Xie's own voice came out from his phone——

"Aren't you going to feed me?"

"Aren't you going to feed me?"

"you all……"

Before being brainwashed by these words, Yu Zhijuan snatched Lin Xie's cell phone on tiptoe and decisively deleted the recording.

"And that's not all,"

Lin Xie confidently pushed Yu Zhijuan into the corner step by step, lifted his shirt to reveal the glaring teeth marks on his waist, abdomen and chest,

"I've been bitten by you everywhere."

"...everywhere?"

"If you don't believe me, take a look?"

Lin Xie smiled brightly, and at the same time slowly began to untie the belt.

Yu Zhiwen's Adam's apple slipped slightly, during the susceptible period his mind was confused and his memory was not very clear, but some images accurately appeared in his mind at this moment.

"Teacher Yu must be responsible to me."

Before the belt was completely taken off by Lin Xie, Yu Zhijuan grabbed his wrist,

"I'm responsible for you, don't take it off!"

Lin Xie finally let go of Yu Zhijuan when he heard the words, and clicked to stop, feeling happy.

"How did Linxi get invited as a parent?"

Yu Zhijuan found a topic.

Although Lin Xie hid him at home for the past few days and raised him with food and drink, but the mess outside has not been resolved, and he has to slowly understand what changes have taken place these days.

"In a fight with someone, she was beaten in the face and sent to the hospital."

Lin Xie paused, and added,

"The person she beat into the hospital was called Chen Kaiyu."

"Good fight,"

Yu Zhijuan decisively expressed his appreciation,

"Did you pay them for their medical expenses?"

"Of course, and from now on, there probably won't be any school in Binhai that is willing to take in Chen Kaiyu again."

"He used to bully Zhiyi a lot..."

Yu Zhijuan habitually recalled Yu Zhiyi, and when the word "Zhiyi" was mentioned, his voice dropped significantly.

"I went to school for you and Lin Xi, not for Yu Zhiyi."

Lin Xie picked up the broken hair that fell by Yu Zhijuan's ear, knowing that he wanted to ask but it was difficult to ask, so he told him everything that happened before, including how to deal with Liang Xiaoci and Yu Yu. Zhiyi, Chi Ling's mother and daughter are safe and sound, and Chen Hao who is being secretly tracked down by Governor Lin.

Yu Zhijuan nodded after listening, Lin Xie's treatment was already the best solution.

"Yu Zhiyi, did you ever ask to see me again?"

After all, Yu Zhijuan is the person who knows his brother best.

"Are you going to see him?"

"will not."

Yu Zhiwen silently sighs,

"He's afraid of me, and my going to see him will only irritate him further, and I... have nothing to say to him. Compared to Yu Zhiyi, was I the only one in the room when you found me that day?"

Lin Xie let out a "hmm",

"It's strange, but you were really the only one in the whole house at the time. I checked Liang Xiaoci's call records. She has been in contact with other people through the landline at that home. Can you remember who or how many people there are?"

"only one person,"

Yu Zhijuan closed his eyes,

"He used a voice changer, and I couldn't see it with my eyes at the time, but I can probably be sure...he is Zhuge Yunbai."

Lin Xie's heart choked slightly.

Even though Yu Zhijuan is now able to come to this conclusion in a calm tone, as if indifferent to himself, but for him at that time, being betrayed and hurt one after another by the younger brother he cared about the most and the teacher who regarded him as his elder brother, it was almost impossible for him to come to this conclusion. Stay awake in the pain, keep the secret with Lin Xie...

"But Zhuge Yunbai didn't know that we had found out that Leslie's death was related to him. He thought that he was still an ordinary mentor far away in Gransu in my heart, so he chose to use a voice changer. This will be a crucial advantage for us.”

"His purpose is the brooch in my hand?"

"Yes, Lewis has already started to worry. If he cannot inherit the orthodox title, it will be difficult for him to be recognized by other nobles as the head of the family."

"I shouldn't have told you the password."

Lin Xie lowered his eyes.

If he could have known in advance that Yu Zhijuan would suffer such torture because of this string of codes, he would not have dragged Yu Zhijuan into this muddy water at the beginning.

"Didn't I keep it?"

Yu Zhijuan chuckled twice, raised his hand and pressed his left shoulder,

"And it was a blessing in disguise. After the new flesh grew out, the tattoo was also destroyed."

He just looked at the mirror for a long time. The tattoo was originally shallow, and most of it had been destroyed together with the previous skin. The healed area revealed a clean light red color. Two petals of osmanthus petals in green and black are left.

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but the word "Hao" representing Chen Hao has been cleanly cut out.

"Lin Xie, I want to wash off this tattoo."

Yu Zhijuan said slowly.

He doesn't need and doesn't want to live as Yu Zhiyi anymore.

"I consulted a doctor for you, tattoo removal is very painful, much more painful than tattooing,"

Lin Xie paused. It's not that he hasn't thought about it. When he was filming "White File", he first saw the tattoo on Yu Zhijuan's back and thought about washing it off for him.

"Zhizhi, I don't mind that tattoo."

The scene when Yu Zhijuan was found in Liang Xiaoci's home is still vivid in his mind, with his bloody back, his absent-minded and broken eyes, and Yu Zhijuan's unstoppable trembling eyelashes.

Lin Xie would rather be tired than to get a tattoo if he had to endure such pain again.

"You wash with me,"

Yu Zhijuan made up her mind,

"I don't want to have anything to do with them anymore, it doesn't matter if it hurts."

"……it is good."

Lin Xie sighed.

Yu Zhijuan looked calm on the face, but what Yu Zhiyi did in those days must have already broken his heart.

After Yu Zhijuan asked to have his tattoo removed, Lin Xie quickly arranged for a technician to come to his home.

"Your piercing was not deep at that time, and now the area is not large, so it is easy to wash,"

After seeing the pattern left on Yu Zhijuan's back with his own eyes, the technician immediately rolled up his sleeves and began to apply alcohol to his back for disinfection.

"...No anesthesia?"

Yu Zhijuan blinked.

When he decided to wash, he really made up his mind and made a vow, but when he actually sat in front of the master, his heart started to beat again.

Lin Xie was standing beside him, with one hand lightly resting on his shoulder, while the other was tightly held by him.

"Anesthetics are useless, dear,"

The technician also blinked at him,

"The anesthetic can only anesthetize the skin. The tattoo is pierced in. If you want to use an anesthetic, I can call the anesthetist, but it won't help at all. You still have to suffer from another needle."

"Is it really more painful than getting tattooed?"

Yu Zhijuan hesitated, like a child in a children's clinic who tried every means to delay the time in order to avoid injections.

"Everyone's pain is different, dear, don't think too much about the pain, your area is not big, it will pass as soon as you grit your teeth and close your eyes, it will be fast, trust me?"

The technician has prepared the tools and looks a little eager to try.

After all, such a dark tattoo on Zhijuan's back is like a flaw in the rough, anyone who sees it can't help but want to help him remove it.

"Then lighten up... hiss...!!"

Before Yu Zhijuan could finish his sentence, the dot matrix pen was pressed on his back.

The stinging burning sensation spread in an instant, and the continuous severe pain stimulated Yuyu to moan uncontrollably. He firmly grasped Lin Xie's hand,

"Don't, wait... wait... stop..."

"Kiss who can't stop, you will be fine soon!"

"No, no...!"

Yu Zhijuan clenched his teeth, and Lin Xie helped him wipe away layers of cold sweat from his forehead, rubbing his neck to comfort him.

"Okay, okay, oh, hello."

The technician wiped off her sweat and became nervous because of Yu Zhijuan. She consciously found a pair of earplugs from the toolbox and put them on.

The unbearable stinging pain stopped for a while, the laser had already burned along the pattern on his back, and the sudden pain twitched Yu Zhiwen's nerves.

Before he could catch his breath, the technician pressed the dot matrix pen up again.

"...!"

Yu Zhijuan gasped.

Just now it was burned along the intact skin for the first time, and now it is burned again on the damaged epidermis, which is more painful than the previous one.

"Cry out when it hurts, don't hold back."

Lin Xie hugged him tightly.

"Be patient, kiss me, one last time!"

The technician reminded that Yu Zhijuan knew that the pain would definitely be excruciating. Before he was ready, the severe pain had already spread along the nerves to the scalp.

"... Lin, Lin Xie!!"

Yu Zhijuan trembled for a moment, then buried his head in Lin Xie recklessly, and wrapped his arms around his waist tightly.

Lin Xie kept standing, being hugged and squeezed like this, she could only feel Yu Zhijuan buried her face in front of his lower abdomen.

"..."

The whole process lasted about six to ten minutes. Yu Zhijuan didn't raise his head until the technician helped to apply the medicine and wrapped the gauze.

"Kiss, it seems that you are almost done after washing it once. When you recover, you can check the residue. If it doesn't work, you can wash it a second time."

"Will there be a second time?"

Lin Xie frowned.

"Not necessarily, some deep wounds need to be washed many times, kisses are relatively shallow, up to three times. But I think today's results may be enough, as long as you pay attention to the follow-up healing of the wound, remember not to get wet oh."

The technician packed up the tools while exhorting some precautions.

"sorry to bother you."

Lin Xie asked Lu Yuan to help send the technician out of the mansion, and patiently waited for Yu Zhijuan to recover.

After a long while, Yu Zhijuan finally raised his head, and there was a faint redness at the end of his eyes, which was the trace of physiological tears shed from being stimulated.

Lin Xie paused, and the two of them fell into silence for a while.

Until Yu Zhijuan staggered back on his own initiative,

"...You are also hard, are you still human?"

Lin Xie wronged???
