look forward to

Zhao Zhichuan slept on the sofa at Jin Chu's house all night, curled up on the sofa with a height of nearly 1.9 meters made the sofa look a bit overwhelmed, Jin Chu felt a little pity in his heart, and Zhao Zhichuan woke up when he got up.

"I'll make breakfast, you go wash up."

Zhao Zhichuan felt warm in his heart, if Cheng Ya had brought Jin Chu back earlier, would they have been able to get along like they are now.

Jin Chu's thought was to quickly send the young master away. Because Zhao Zhichuan was outside this night, he dreamed about many things from the past, and was reminded all the time that he was not accepted. Cheng Ya woke up in the hospital The phrase "Send him away, I don't want to see him again." is still clearly printed in my mind.

Everything in the past will remind him of the past, and all his expectations of happiness came to an abrupt end in that summer five years ago.

Zhao Zhichuan and Jin Chu did not go to the most popular scenic spots during the Golden Week. The place was chosen by Zhao Zhichuan. It is a comprehensive commercial area that was officially opened last year. However, thanks to its geographical advantages and the prosperity of city A, it is foreseeable that it may not become the central business district in the region in the future.

But what Jin Chu didn't expect was that although it wasn't as lively as the scenic spot, there were really many people.

"Are you sure you're here for fun? There's nothing else to do besides shopping. When I first came here, I saw a sign indicating that there is a playground here, or do you want to play there?" Jin Chu asked.

"Whoever wants to go to the playground, we are here to go shopping. You are my brother, you don't even want to go shopping with your younger brother, do you?"

"It's not that you don't want to, then tell me what you want to buy, and we will go shopping with a goal, which is more efficient."

"Everyone said they brought me out to play. There must be no goal for playing. Besides, I have wanted to come here for a long time. I heard from my dad that there is a special commercial street here. I just came to see how special it is."

Jin Chu was speechless for a while, and he asked, "So, your family also participated in the development here?"

Zhao Zhichuan couldn't deny it, and corrected, "It's our family."

Jin Chu pulled out a forced smile, okay, let's take it as a project to accompany the young master to visit his home.

The characteristic blocks are no different in architectural style from the ordinary blocks they saw just now, and the theme and decoration design style of each street are quite different.

There are animation Two-dimensional area, ancient style Hanfu area, handicraft industrial area, accompanied by various types of themed restaurants, themed cafes, themed selfie halls, etc. Each street has its own caves, which are different from ordinary streets. Presenting an extremely unified atmosphere and customers, it can almost be said to be a small independent world.

It seems that here, no matter what kind of hobbies, no matter what kind of ideas, can be respected and recognized. His eyes were attracted by a theme exhibition hall of BL works. They were chattering and taking pictures there, and the hall was full of people. There were staff members with anime makeup checking tickets at the door, and it seemed that they were doing some activities.

Zhao Zhichuan followed Jin Chu's gaze, and his eyes also stopped on the standing signs of the two male protagonists at the door.

Jin Chu withdrew his gaze, turned his head and said to Zhao Zhichuan, "Let's go."

Unexpectedly, the enthusiastic staff seemed to have discovered some new land, and greeted them with a very mysterious smile, "Two little brothers, do you want to go in and have a look?"

Jin Chu waved his hand, "No, we'll just pass by." After speaking, he motioned for Zhao Zhichuan to leave quickly, because the girls next to him who were just taking pictures had already put down their mobile phones and began to look at the two of them, intending to strike up a conversation.

But soon Jin Chu noticed that those girls looked away, as if they were behind him, Jin Chu didn't care, and turned to leave.

There was a sharp dull pain from the tip of the nose, and in the next second, physiological tears welled up in Jin Chu's eyes, which was so sour.

When he turned around, Jin Chu didn't expect someone behind him, so he turned in a hurry, his nose hit a solid wall, it was a man's back, he covered his nose and couldn't speak, Zhao Zhichuan anxiously called out "Brother , is there anything wrong?".

The man who was hit on the back felt the movement behind him and turned around, "Are you okay?" A deep and magnetic male voice came from above the two of them, and the two heads raised together.

Jin Chu quickly said, "I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention to knocking you down just now...", his eyes met the man's, and the last word stuck in his throat.

An overwhelming panic surged up, Jin Chu's whole body froze, his heart beat wildly, the pain and sourness in his nasal cavity seemed to have disappeared, and Zhao Zhichuan, who was beside him, also froze on the spot.

The man is wearing a well-tailored suit, his hair is short, every strand of hair is meticulous, his eyebrows are deep, his nose is straight, his lips are perfectly shaped, his face looks like it has been carved and polished, revealing a kind of intimidating look. Beautiful and distant.

It's Qin Mufeng!

"Ah Chu." Qin Mufeng reacted from the shock as if it only took a blink of an eye or a century.

The person who has been thinking about it for five years, like fate, broke into his world again.

Jin Chu's first reaction was to take a step back. He didn't know why he had to retreat. This was his instinctive reaction. Zhao Zhichuan was bumped beside him, and he helped Jin Chu, who was barely standing still. Qin Mufeng stretched out his Hands froze in mid-air.

"Mu Feng, long time no see." The voice was rare and alienated, just like Qin Mufeng's faint self-introduction when they spoke for the first time.

Jin Chu took his hand away from his nose, and he didn't feel anything strange anymore, but he knew that the sourness surging in his chest would rush back into his nasal cavity soon, so he quickly gave Zhao Zhichuan a hand.

Zhao Zhichuan said, "Then let's go first." Then he pulled Jin Chu and turned to leave.

"Achu." Qin Mufeng's voice came from behind.

Jin Chu stopped and didn't look back, his eyes were already full of tears at this moment, his eyes were blurred, if Zhao Zhichuan hadn't pulled him, he couldn't see the ground clearly and couldn't take a step forward.

Zhao Zhichuan looked distressed, it was the first time he saw Jin Chu who couldn't hide his fragility, even five years ago, he had never seen Jin Chu shed a tear.

Qin Mufeng walked towards them quickly, grasping Jin Chu's other hand, "Ah Chu, can we talk?" He was a little anxious, as if if he let go, the person in front of him would disappear.

Jin Chu didn't expect that one day, he would be so cowardly that he couldn't hold back a few tears in a crowded street.

The eyes of the pedestrians around had already started to focus on them, Zhao Zhichuan let go of Jin Chu's hand, and stood in front of him, at this moment Jin Chu suddenly remembered what Zhao Zhichuan said before, "I will grow taller and protect you and my mother. "

He vaguely looked at Zhao Zhichuan's figure standing in front of him, and tears fell down his face.

The three of them were silent. Qin Mufeng just wanted to hold Jin Chu in his arms, but he didn't dare. After five years, would he still be willing to be touched by him?The delicate and warm touch in his hands is his longing that he hasn't seen for five years.

The atmosphere was stalemate for a long time before the tears in his eyes dissipated. Jin Chu didn't care about the embarrassment they saw him just now. He reached out to wipe the tears off his face before pulling his hand out of Qin Mufeng's hand.

"Okay." Although his eyes were still red, Jin Chu had a familiar smile on his face, which was his usual gentle armor.

Jin Chu looked up at Zhao Zhichuan, who was still standing in front of him, and gave him a comforting smile, "Xiaochuan, you go back to school first, I will accompany you out to play some other day."

Zhao Zhichuan didn't answer, just stared at Qin Mufeng, his eyes were like a puppy protecting his master, the fur all over his body stood up like spikes.

"Do you also want to be like them five years ago, not even letting us speak clearly?" Jin Chu looked at Zhao Zhichuan and said.

There was a hurt look in Zhao Zhichuan's eyes, he didn't think about it that way, he just didn't want to make Jin Chu sad, Zhao Zhichuan took a step back, "Then I'll go back."

Jin Chu looked at the bustling people on the street, "Want to talk to me here?"

Qin Mufeng was a little dazed. The person with red eyes who was about to avoid him just now didn't seem to be Jin Chu. He was a little embarrassed, "Let's go to the coffee shop over there."

"it is good."

After five years, even the ordinary pleasantries between them seemed unfamiliar. The coffee shop also had a Two-dimensional style. Two tall and handsome men sat by the window. Compared with the young people around them who took selfies or chatted together, they looked like are two heterogeneous.

"Ah, did you notice, those two guys who just came in are so handsome." The little girl at the next table discussed without restraint.

"I have long eyes, it's a feast for the eyes."

The surprised and nympho voices of the two people did not hold back at all, and they didn't care whether the person concerned would feel uncomfortable hearing it, but there was really no need to worry about this problem, because the two people involved could not hear what they said at all. They are all adapting to the new each other.

Qin Mufeng looked at the person in front of him, his facial features were better than five years ago, the former boy had grown into a man, his phoenix eyes were the same as when he first met him, clean and clear, his skin was fair, his face was still small, but more mature The man's water chestnut makes him look more attractive. He is wearing a sky blue shirt today, paired with a pair of black slacks with a sense of design, the whole person looks very soft.

"When did you come back?" Jin Chu broke the silence.

"Two days ago."

Jin Chu saw that he was dressed in formal attire, and asked again, "Are you here for business? Dressed so formally."

"Well, come here to inspect a project."

Reminded by Jin Chuyi, Qin Mufeng belatedly remembered that he was with another person just now, and it was Xu's newly arranged assistant for him. Qin Mufeng said it to see Xu's new projects in recent years. Zhou just walked around. The assistant is a lively girl who just graduated from university and is one year younger than Qin Mufeng. She was recruited by the group a few days ago. Because Qin Mufeng came back at an unlucky time, the company called the girl who was on vacation. The triple salary allowed her to take the new boss around.

The little girl cheerfully accepted this glorious and easy task. In addition, although Qin Mufeng looked cold, he was actually a nice person, so after being attracted by that BL themed pavilion, he reported to his cold-faced and kind-hearted boss. After getting approval, I went in and said that I would come out in 2 minutes.

As a result, when she came out after being addicted inside, she found that her handsome boss was missing.

Qin Mufeng gave Jin Chu a sorry look, "Ah Chu, I'll make a call."

"Xiao Yu."

An anxious female voice came, "I'm sorry, Manager Qin, I was too excited and didn't grasp the timing. Where are you, I'll come and find you."

Qin Mufeng said, "Xiaoyu, I have something to do here, you should go back today."

"But..." But what if I go back to triple my salary now?Xiaoyu cried out in her heart.

"Don't worry about Mr. Xu, I will tell him."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Mufeng said, "It's the assistant of the new company. I just came here and I'm not familiar with it. The company arranged for her to take me to get acquainted."

"It's okay, if you are busy, do it first." Jin Chu said.

"Not busy." Qin Mufeng immediately denied.

Another moment of silence.

Jin Chu really wanted to ask him why he didn't contact me for so many years. He knew where I was, why didn't he contact me, but he was afraid of hearing the answer, so he had to pick up the coffee in front of him and sip it, waiting for the man opposite to speak.

"Achu, I'm sorry, I left without saying goodbye." Qin Mufeng's voice was full of self-blame and guilt. He regretted that he listened to Qin You's words after meeting Cheng Ya and asked him to send him away. Maybe he insisted , the result will be different. Over the years, every time he thinks about it, he only regrets it.

He couldn't face himself who was so useless, nor could he face Jin Chu.

Jin Chu's voice was flat, and he couldn't hear any emotion, "It's nothing. In fact, we couldn't do anything under the situation at that time. I don't blame you." Many times later, he thought that if he hadn't escaped from that room In the apartment, Qin Mufeng didn't go abroad, Cheng Ya would definitely keep him locked up, maybe he didn't even have the chance to come to City A.

Even if he escaped, as long as Qin Mufeng was around, one of them would face the fate of being exiled or imprisoned. How could Cheng Ya allow her son to become such a shameful existence as Jin Mingxi.

Qin Mufeng's relationship with his family had deteriorated to the point of being irreconcilable during that time. After thinking about it, it was a good thing for him to leave that suffocating home. They all got rid of those so-called family members. It was good, the only bad thing was That is, they lost each other.

Qin Mufeng was a little flustered by Jin Chu's calm tone, as if he had seen through everything. He didn't want to waste time on apologizing, blaming himself, and making bottomless guesses. He just wanted to know one thing, whether they could still be the same as before .

"Ah Chu, let's start over." Qin Mufeng's voice was a little eager.

Jin Chu held the coffee in the air with his hand, and there was a familiar and chaotic sound in his chest again, just like when they communicated with each other in Urumqi in the early spring of that year.
