Cold violence

He Chu arrived as promised, without Zhou Yu telling him his address.

Zhou Yu thought well, and He Chu had already figured out his specific information.

However, He Chu was never a sneaky person, and with Zhou Yu's attitude, he didn't want to pretend to hide anything.

The two always felt that there was something they couldn't say, but now they don't need to say it, they just need to act.

They knew each other well a long time ago. Zhou Yu didn't tell because he knew that He Chu already knew about it. He Chu didn't ask because he knew that Zhou Yu had already seen through him.

Even after so many years, the tacit understanding between the two people has not changed at all.

When He Chu knocked on the door, Zhou Yu was sitting on the sofa looking at the email from his assistant.

He got up and went to Wei Hechu to open the door, and closed the computer without any hassle. The thin blanket that was originally on his body slipped down as he got up, taking away even the last trace of warmth.

The realization that He Chu was outside his door made him take a deep breath before slowly opening the door.

After so many years, they still met again, when he thought there was no intersection between the two of them.

He Chu's face just appeared in Zhou Yu's sight.

He still carried the cold air outside the house, and he came with the wind and snow.

This is Zhou Yu's clearest thought at this moment.

There were even snowflakes on He Chu's body, and some that fell on his forehead and dotted on his eyelashes, making him look a little haggard.

The snowflakes were quickly melted on the woolen windbreaker by the heat from the room, forming a round drop of water, which quickly melted into the fabric.

He Chu didn't speak, but just looked at Zhou Yu quietly. After a long time, he blinked, and the melted snow rolled down on the ends of his eyelashes, hanging gently.

Like crying.

Just for this short moment, it overlaps with the laughing boy many years ago.

At that time, He Chu liked to stare at him when he was in class, and he never tired of watching him.At that time, Zhou Yu also liked to stare at He Chu's face in a daze, his heart and eyes were full of love for this person.

It's just that now the face that reappears in memory seems to have changed its owner, and even my own wandering thoughts seem to be gone.

--haven't seen you for a long time.

Zhou Yu wanted to say it, but found that this sentence was too vulgar, and the relationship between the two of them had long been so stiff that he couldn't say it.

This person has really changed a lot now.

He is no longer wearing a rustic school uniform. He is wearing high-end custom-made clothes from head to toe. His face has also become more refined due to years of tempering. Only the bangs that were put down because of a late-night trip still have a little shadow of ten years ago.

It was as if the boy who had appeared in his memory not long ago came by stepping on his memory, bringing back memories from many years ago.

But Zhou Yuyou clearly realized that this person was no longer the person he was before.

He is no longer young, and because he has been in the mall for a long time, he has added a more elegant temperament. He has become mature and stable. After his eyebrows and eyes grow, he really has the meaning of "Mr. He". Anyone who sees it is easily moved.

He knew that the person in front of him was He Chu, but this He Chu made people feel extremely strange.

They have been far away from each other's life, and it has been seven years, if counted from the year they parted ways, it will be a full nine years.

He hadn't observed this person so closely for nine years.

But when He Chu came, he just stared at him.

"I'm sorry I called you over so late."

It was Zhou Yu who finally broke the silence. Zhou Yu opened the door a little, with a slight smile on his face, motioning for He Chu to come in.

He Chu looked at the rude and polite person in front of him, and didn't move for a long time.

Zhou Yu has changed a lot.

When he was in school, Zhou Yu was always indifferent. He would rather be alienated from others than try to please others with a smile. That's why he has so few friends around him. But now, just seeing He Chu for the first time, he can Wearing a typical shopping mall smile, He Chu couldn't help being stunned.

He still looks so good-looking when he smiles, but it doesn't have the same taste as before.

Zhou Yu didn't talk much before, but his eyes always seemed to be able to speak. Sometimes He Chu could tell what Zhou Yu was thinking when he looked into his eyes.At that time and now, those eyes seemed to be surrounded by heavy fog. He Chu tried his best to see something in it, but found that it was just a blur.

Zhou Yu's facial features also gradually opened up, becoming a little more majestic, his complexion was still a little pale, as if it was exactly the same as before.

But He Chu still felt that he was different, not only in appearance, but more in temperament.

The aura of "don't get close to strangers" that was awkward in his teenage years has completely subsided at this time, replaced by the official polite "reciprocity" smile honed in the business field, which makes you think He tried to get close, but he couldn't get close to half a point.

You can only watch from afar and think about this person silently in your heart.

He has been thinking about the person in front of him for many years, his voice, his face, and his breath, but when he first saw this person in front of him, he still couldn't help but feel a jump in his heart.

It was the same heart-pounding feeling as many years ago.

Some people are like this, he lives in your heart, you think about it day and night, and feel that you can no longer like him more, but the moment you see him again, you are still like your first love.

"Come in and talk."

Zhou Yu still had that polite smile, and led He Chu into the room, but he didn't go in again.

He Chu took a look at Zhou Yu's house, and felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

Zhou Yu was still the same, even though many things had changed, his habits remained the same.Up to now, he still puts things and organizes the room according to the previous method.

This house is obviously much larger than their previous small house, and the decoration is also many times more exquisite, but when He Chu saw it, he seemed to be able to imagine Zhou Yu's life in it.

They have lived together for so long that they know each other's habits like the back of their hands.

He Chu even felt that he knew more about Zhou Yu than Zhou Yu himself.

Because the feelings at that time were so deep, so deep that I only hated myself for not being able to integrate with this person.

Zhou Yu leaned against the door frame, some distance away from He Chu, looking at him with a smile on his lips.

"You called me this time." He Chu leaned against the door frame opposite him.

When facing Zhou Yu, he also retained the long-standing habit of looking directly into each other's eyes without avoiding it.

It seems that in this way you can see the heart of that person.

"Just say what you want to say." Zhou Yu raised his eyebrows, but he didn't make any further movements. He put his hands in the pockets of his home clothes, relying on the slight warmth on his legs to keep warm.

"I want to see you, and..." He Chu stood up straight, but he couldn't say the words that he wanted to say before. Those words that have been held in his heart for so many years have been repeated countless times when he was alone. The repetition is like a stick in the throat when I really see this person.

He was afraid that if he said it, he would see Zhou Yu's disdainful eyes.

I'm afraid that Zhou Yu doesn't care at all.

Zhou Yu raised his eyebrows, and mocked, "Why, have you nothing to say? Why have you become awkward in front of me after so long?"

The moment he said this sentence, he was stunned, because it was too intimate, especially the last sentence, which was very similar to the way two people spoke many years ago.

But He Chu was taken aback by Zhou Yu's small expression.

When he was in school, Zhou Yu rarely had such delicate micro-expressions on his face. His eyebrows were always placed on the top of his eyelids, and the drooping arc at the end of his eyebrows was also slightly cold. It seemed difficult for him to mobilize his emotions. Facial nerves, often the smile is in the eyes and the corners of the mouth are a little bit reluctant.

Every time he would think that this person was born with facial paralysis, and only on rare occasions would he not begrudge his smile.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, even Zhou Yu has learned to look like this.

In the end, it is time that cannot be forgiven, neither oneself nor Zhou Yu.

The face of the person in front of him has faded from the youthful youthfulness, and time has sharpened the lines between the eyebrows and eyes of this person, inadvertently revealing an aura called sharpness.

But now he is just leaning there, the spotlight casts light and shadow on his face through the hair, he is clearly in the light, but all of them reveal a sense of isolation.

He has been alone for so many years, and he is even more unapproachable than before.

No matter how many news about Zhou Yu He Chu has seen on the webpage, no matter how high-spirited Zhou Yu looks in the photos, only when he really stands in front of this person can he feel his aura.

Indifferent, yet lonely.

He stood at the commanding heights of the circle, but the heights were overwhelming.

This is completely different from the aura of "stay away from strangers" when he was a teenager.

He is like a lonely flower, planting seeds in the darkness, and taking root and sprouting alone in the darkness. The blooming flowers grow high, with tiny barbs, which make people's hands dripping with blood when touched.

"Come and see you, and tell you something that I owe you for a long time."

Looking at Zhou Yu, He Chu narrowed his eyes slightly, remembering that it was Zhou Yu's impatient expression, he moved his toes slightly, and said with some difficulty:

"sorry."

Then he saw Zhou Yu smiled slightly, and the smile grew bigger and bigger until it spread to the corners of his eyes, making his eyes curl up, as if he heard a big joke that made him want to laugh out loud , but in the end he just let out a soft "ha", signaling He Chu to sit in the room.

He Chu felt a little cramped, obviously he was someone who had lived together for so long before, but time has passed, and he no longer has the capital to let him be unrestrained.

In the past, Zhou Yu was willing to let him do whatever he wanted, but now that he has no such privilege, he feels that he has to think twice even when he says a word.

He suddenly realized that Zhou Yu had been so gentle to him.

Zhou Yu adjusted his bangs slightly, and finally revealed his eyes.

After pouring a glass of water for He Chu, he sat down, still in that upright posture, and smiled, "Why do you apologize?"

"You see what I mean."

He Chu lowered his eyes, he had never dared to face Zhou Yu directly on this matter.

After all, what happened back then was ultimately my fault. I had been thinking about it for so long, and I didn’t even know how many times I had typed out the manuscript, but the words really came out, and when I wanted to say something more, I realized that "I’m sorry." "These three words are so weak.

"What are you apologizing for?" Zhou Yu still smiled slightly, staring at He Chu without blinking.

He wanted He Chu to look him in the eyes and talk, so he had to make it clear.

"Actually, I've always been very sorry about those things back then. It also includes what we did to you back then... I wanted to say this to you a long time ago, but I never had the chance."

He Chu just stared at the water glass in front of him, the light reflected warm yellow light on the water surface, and then shone into He Chu's eyes, he paused, and said, "I'm sorry."

"What's there to be sorry for, you have your own way, what does it have to do with me?"

He still didn't look at himself.

Zhou Yu leaned into the sofa, spread the sofa blanket over his lap, and hid his hands under the blanket.

He lowered his head, closed his eyes, remembering what happened that year, and pinched his hands tightly together.

After such a long time, that period of time that he deliberately forgot seems to have become a nightmare of his, which only appears repeatedly in unconscious dreams.

Did He Chu come here for this matter now?How ridiculous, after so many years, do you think I still owe you this apology?

"At that time... I was too timid. At that time, I felt that I was very tired. I was afraid that I would not be able to take you away again. I was afraid that I would also be excluded by the whole class. I wanted to integrate into their In the group, so at the beginning, I..."

"What does that have to do with me?"

Zhou Yu frowned deeply, and interrupted him unceremoniously, almost indifferently.

Just now, He Chu put away the intentional smile he had put on when he entered the door, and now he didn't even have a deliberate disguise. This is a treatment that his business partners have never had.

"What attitude you were willing to have towards me back then was your own business, and how you chose among us was also your own business."

He Chu was silent for a long time, and Zhou Yu added indifferently: "So there is no need to apologize to me, I can't bear it. How you treated me back then, just keep it as it is now. If you have nothing else, I will Think we can call it a day."

What he said already smacked of rejection, it could almost be called a "order to chase away guests", but He Chu still sat there motionless, hesitating to speak.

Zhou Yu was not in a hurry, and waited for He Chu to finish his final speech.

It's okay, I have time, you speak slowly, I listen, anyway, I don't need it.
