Shen Mang swallowed the fish in his mouth, wiped his mouth carefully with a napkin, and then looked up at him.

"what happened?"

"I……"

Facing the beautiful and deep eyes of the young man, Gu Xing had a stomach full of words to say but got stuck in his throat and couldn't speak.

He hesitated, his expression changed a few times, and finally he thought of Yu Xian's encouragement, so he mustered up his courage and fixed his eyes on Shen Mang.

"I like you! It's not the kind of liking that my younger brother has for my elder brother, but the kind of liking that I want to be your boyfriend."

The boy's tone is sincere and warm, full of love.

After finishing his words quickly, Gu Xing stared at the young man nervously, swallowing his saliva uncontrollably.

Shen Mang frowned slightly, and after a moment of surprise, his face returned to the previous indifference.

"I am your brother."

Gu Xing guessed it when he saw his expression, his heart sank heavily, he had already guessed the result, but he still couldn't restrain the urge to move forward like a moth to a flame in his heart.

"But we are not related by blood, and you are not my own brother. Actually... I liked you when I was in junior high school. At that time, Gu Linhui was away from home all day, and no one cared about me. I had to go to you. You can cook for me. I eat and help me with my homework. I think that little apartment you rent is the sweetest place in the world, and I feel so blessed to be around you..."

Shen Mang's eyelashes moved, he was like a cruel executioner, watching coldly the young man who was full of love cut open a sincere heart and spread it bloody in front of him, but he couldn't arouse any emotion in his heart. waves.

In fact, from the moment he walked into the box and saw Gu Linhui, the dark things in his heart continued to ferment, and the uncontrollable tyranny and malice spread deep in his heart. Just sitting here calmly, It took all his self-control.

"That is your happy memory. To me, you are just a younger brother. I don't have any feelings for you beyond brothers."

Hearing the young man's words, Gu Xing's eyes slowly turned red.Still unwilling to give up, he struggled to ask, "What if I don't want to be your younger brother?"

"Then we won't have any relationship anymore."

As if being sentenced to life imprisonment, Gu Xing's eyelashes trembled, and all the blood faded from his face.

"Eat the birthday cake yourself, I'm leaving first."

Shen Mang left the box and walked straight out of the corridor.After coming to the quiet courtyard, the irritability in his heart dissipated slightly.At the same time, another doubt floated up from the bottom of my heart.

In the last life, Gu Xing never confessed to him so early, why is the plot suddenly brought forward?

Could it be... related to that person?

"Teacher Yu, did you just go out to exercise?"

Yu Xian was wearing gray casual clothes, and just walked into the elevator entrance when he bumped into Teacher Zhang from the same subject group.The other party was carrying a bag of fruit, probably just returned from shopping in the market.

Yu Xian nodded, greeted him and got on the elevator.He had only run 3000 meters, and his drenched short sleeves were sticking to his body, making him quite uncomfortable. As soon as he returned to his small apartment, he took a comfortable hot bath.

Coming out of the bathroom, before he had time to dry his hair, the phone rang.

Seeing the caller ID of Gu Xing, he frowned slightly, a little surprised.

Why is this guy calling him at night?It's not about asking him to play basketball, is it?

He went to the balcony to answer the phone.

After connecting, there was no sound from the other end for a long time, and it was a long time before I remembered the thin sobbing sound.

Yu Xian's intuition was wrong, and he asked worriedly, "Gu Xing, what's wrong with you?"

"Mr. Yu, I confessed to him today, but...he rejected me."

After saying this, Gu Xing seemed to be unable to suppress the grievance and sadness in his heart, and cried out in a hoarse voice.

"Don't cry, where are you now?"

Gu Xing probably drank alcohol and stumbled when speaking, Yu Xian asked several times before he heard the name of the farm.

He searched on the map of his mobile phone, and it was not far from the school, only a few kilometers away.

"Gu Xing, don't run around, just wait, I'll go right away."

After hanging up the phone, Yu Xian changed clothes in a hurry, picked up the key of the battery car, and walked out of the apartment quickly.

When he arrived at the farm, under the instructions of the waiter, he found the box at the end, opened the door, and saw a boy in a sweater sitting alone at a round dining table with an unopened big cake on the table.

Seeing that nothing happened to Gu Xing, Yu Xian was slightly relieved, he walked over slowly, and patted the boy on the shoulder.

Gu Xing originally lowered his head, but after noticing the touch on his shoulder, he slowly raised his head, revealing a pair of red and swollen eyes from crying.

"Mr. Yu."

The table was staggered here and there, with a pile of empty wine bottles, but the dishes were not touched.There were three sets of dishes, and it looked like two other people had been sitting here before.

"Are you alone? They're all gone?"

Yu Xian sat down on the seat beside him.

Gu Xing twitched the corners of his mouth, with a bitter smile, "They're all gone, and I'm the only one left."

Yu Xian glanced at the exquisitely packaged cake gift box on the table, and sighed softly, "Is today your birthday?"

Gu Xing nodded slowly.

Yu Xian said softly, "Happy birthday."

Gu Xing's eyes were red, and he twitched the corners of his mouth self-deprecatingly, "I can't be happy, I would rather everything today never happened."

Yu Xian asked tentatively, "Then the person you confessed to, was also sitting here just now?"

Gu Xing's eyelashes trembled, and he hummed softly.

Yu Xian understood roughly, he knew he couldn't ask any more questions.He poured a cup of warm water over and placed it by Gu Xing's hand.

"Drink some water first, and relieve the bar."

At this moment, Gu Xing's mood calmed down a little. He seemed to realize that he had actually cried in front of Yu Xian. The belated sense of shame and remorse welled up in his heart. He raised his hand to cover most of his face, and took the glass of water to pour Take a big gulp.

Yu Xian didn't speak either, just looked at him quietly.Under the man's gentle gaze, Gu Xing suddenly had the urge to confide.

"Mr. Yu, do you know who the other two people were in the box just now?"

"My dad, and my brother."

Yu Xian frowned slightly.

"You're not mistaken, the person I like... is my brother, but we are a reorganized family, he is not my real brother."

"I thought that my brother should at least treat me differently after we have lived together for so many years, but just now... After he rejected me, he even said that we would not have any relationship other than brotherhood."

Thinking of Shen Mang's indifferent eyes when he said this before, full of grievances welled up from the bottom of Gu Xing's heart again.His fingers clenched the tablecloth unconsciously, and tears filled his eyes unconsciously.

Yu Xian sighed, picked up the tissue on the side and handed it to him.

If he had known that the person Gu Xing liked was his stepbrother, he would not have persuaded him to confess.

Gu Xing wiped the corners of his eyes with a tissue, then blew his nose again, his puppy eyes were filled with tears, and he looked at Yu Xian with aggrieved eyes, "You said... he was too cruel to me, how could he say such a thing? "

Yu Xian patted him on the shoulder, "Not everyone who likes you will get a response. Besides, the more cruel your brother rejects, the more it shows that he is thinking of you."

"Thinking about the bright side, even if your brother will date other people in the future, but once they break up, they will have no relationship, and you will be different. No matter what happens, you will always be his brother. This is the relationship between you two." A special connection, no?"

Hearing Yu Xian's words, Gu Xing's eyes slowly opened wide, and there was a gleam of light in the moist black pupils again.

With tears in his eyes, he smiled shyly, "Mr. Yu, the way you comfort people is really special."

In front of the glass light box, faint blue light spills from above.On the rattan chair made of pear blossom wood, a handsome young man sat on one side with a blank expression, holding a plate of fresh raw meat in his hand.

A hissing sound sounded behind him, and the slender white snake was spitting out a bright red letter, with a winding and flexible body, and poked its head out from behind him, grabbing the raw meat in the plate in one bite.

The White Spirit Snake's belly swelled, and it wrapped itself around the young man's arm contentedly, digesting the food that had just entered its mouth.

Shen Mang's long eyelashes drooped slightly, and his white fingers stroked the rough scales of the snake's body.He patiently played with the white snake for a while, then left the glass room and walked to the terrace.

Suddenly, the phone in his pocket vibrated, and it was Tian Wei who sent a message.

——Brother Shen, is Little Xingxing satisfied with the cake I picked today?

Seeing this text message, the familiar irritability began to spread from the chest again. After all, Gu Xing was the younger brother he watched and grew up. When he left, Gu Xing cried so badly. He was left there alone. What happened to being drunk...

Shen Mang made a call and went out.

"Ask a few people to check on Gu Xing to confirm his safety. Don't let him find out."

"Yes, Mr. Shen."

Shen Mang leaned on the terrace, looking at the dim stars in the night sky.A few minutes later, the phone rang again.

"Mr. Shen, someone picked up Mr. Gu."

What followed was a clear photo, which should have been taken at the gate of the courtyard.In the photo, Gu Xing was drunk, leaning against a man's arms with flushed cheeks.

The man wore black-rimmed glasses, his brows were completely covered by too long bangs, and he was wearing an old-fashioned plaid shirt. He put one hand on Gu Xing's waist, and supported the tall boy with some difficulty.

Shen Mang narrowed his eyes slightly, and enlarged the photo until he could fully recognize the man's facial features.

After a long time, the corners of his mouth pulled slightly, and there was a hint of hostility in his eyes.

The fleeing lamb is getting more and more capable.
