Three poisons

When the dinner was over, it began to drizzle outside.

Some cold.

This is the bad thing about April and May. The south is always pattering. Clothes can’t be dried for a few days. I didn't suffer any disasters, and I really hope that God will show mercy and stop it from raining.

There were not many people coming and going on the street, just two or three here and there, and most of them were in a hurry, rushing home.

On the contrary, the taverns and dance halls doing that kind of business became lively, and cars were parked on both sides of the street.

When Xu Yan walked out of the banquet hall in thin clothes, he happened to see Xu Shuyan standing at the door with a coat in his arms - the black-haired young man stared down at a lamp under the eaves of the building across the street, also I don't know what I'm thinking...

The coat he was holding in his hand belonged to Xu Yan, and Xu Yan didn't remember wearing this coat when he went out today.

He let out a breath slowly, and there was a cloudy smell of alcohol between his nose... When he walked forward, the black-haired young man standing at the door seemed to have heard the footsteps, turned his head, and smiled at him: "I When I was on the balcony just now, I saw that it was raining and it was cold outside, and I was worried that you would catch a cold after eating wine and blowing the cold wind, so I asked your followers to go home quickly and fetch your coat for you."

As he spoke, he made a gesture of handing the coat out.

Xu Yan stood about an arm's length away from him, and didn't move.

Maybe the man really drank too much tonight, his eyes were slightly red, he stared at Xu Shuyan, as if he wanted to see a blooming flower on his face——

Xu Shuyan waited for a long time before the man moved, smiled kindly, and stepped forward to put the coat on for him with his own hands.

Maybe it was because he stood outside the door for a long time just now, when he approached, his body was mixed with the wet and slightly cold air outside, Xu Yan lowered his eyes, and could still see the delicate drops of water on his shoulders...

As soon as his eyes moved, he raised his hand to hold his shoulder.

Xu Shuyan looked up at him.

The two looked at each other for a moment, Xu Yan looked a little hesitant, lowered his head and approached the thin lips that were close at hand——

Seeing that his lips were about to touch together, he stopped.

Xu Shuyan didn't find it strange either, but instead smiled, he called the man's name, and said slowly: "If you don't want to kiss me, you don't have to force it... I'm not in such a hurry."

A trace of astonishment almost flashed across the man's eyes that were blurred by alcohol, and the big hand holding his shoulder exerted a little force...

Xu Shuyan didn't complain of pain, but raised his hand in a good-tempered manner, and straightened the coat draped over Xu Yan's shoulders: "I really want to develop a good relationship with you... No matter if it works or not, you have to work hard to know .”

After leaving such an inexplicable sentence, he took a step back and pulled away from the man's embrace.

Turning around, he picked up an umbrella that was leaning against the wall. After opening the umbrella, he held it up and walked into the rain at night.

Xu Yan stood there for a long time.

It wasn't until Xu Shuyan's back could no longer be seen that his gaze slowly gained focus... Moving to the wall, he looked at the place where the umbrella had just been placed, and there was a small puddle of water——

It was only then that he remembered that Xu Shuyan couldn't control the people under him, even if he was a follower.

Then this coat can only be taken by him himself.

At this time, a gust of cool wind blew past, and the coolness of the rain on his face, but Xu Yan's body was extremely warm.

For a moment, there was a confusion and softness on the man's face that he didn't even notice.

Such emotions were put away when footsteps sounded behind him. He turned his head, looked at the trembling attendants with their heads down, and thought of what Xu Shuyan had just made up about the origin of his coat——

"From now on, what Mr. Xu said, as long as it's not too much, you can follow suit."

He heard his voice soaked in the cold night wind, and it was also tainted with a trace of coolness.

The attendant was obviously startled, raised his head and gave Xu Yan a quick glance, then lowered his head again.

Fortunately, at this time, Xu Yan's car drove up, the man didn't say anything else, and bent over and sat in the open car door... It was warm in the car, so when the coat slipped off his shoulders as the man bent down into the car, he also Didn't care too much.

When he got in the car, he just casually put the coat beside him, and he stared straight ahead.

"drive."

……

Xu Shuyan walked all the way home, his legs ached.

He knew that Xu Yan actually drove here tonight, logically he should have sent him home properly, but he didn't particularly blame the man for not doing so——

They both need to give each other time to think.

When I got home, I poured out the wine I hadn't finished before and drank a glass for myself. In addition, I drank some red wine before, the effect was very good, and I fell into a slightly drunk after a while.

So when someone knocked on the door from outside, Xu Shuyan thought he was dreaming.

"Who?"

He leaned on the table with his head propped on one hand, and asked in a lazy voice.

No one answered the door.

Xu Shuyan smiled to himself, thinking that he was really drunk and had auditory hallucinations, the knock on the door came in a more violent and impatient way - earth-shattering - making people think that if he didn't open the door again , people outside the door can remove the door.

So bad tempered.

Xu Shuyan pursed his lips, and complained nonchalantly about Bai Chulian's mismanagement, letting people disturb others in the street in the middle of the night, standing up, dragging his slippers and walking to the door, muttering "Come here, come here" Opening the door, I was about to ask someone who knocked on the door so urgently in the middle of the night to sew a shroud...

When he looked up, he found the person standing outside the door, Bai Chulian couldn't control him, and he couldn't scold him either.

"...Why are you here?" Xu Shuyan asked.

Standing outside the door was Commander Gu. It was so late, and he didn't bring his usual two adjutants by his side. He came and stood there on his own—there were drops of water in his hair, and he was wearing a dark military uniform. It was also wet by the rain.

Gu Rong pushed Xu Shuyan away angrily, walked into his room on his own, found a towel and wiped the water off his face with ease: "It took so long to open the door, are you deaf?"

The words are bad words, and before the black-haired young man could answer, he sniffed his nose again, as if smelling alcohol in the air——

The dark eyeballs scanned the room, and finally stopped on the wine bottle on the table, with vicious joy flashing in the eyes: "I didn't drink enough at the banquet tonight, and I drank at home by myself? Why, Xu Yan treats you badly? You Feeling unhappy, can you drink away your worries?"

This person simply bases his own happiness on the distress of others.

But Xu Shuyan is not a man to be trampled upon.

Leaning against the door at the moment, he looked mockingly at the man who was touching around in his room: "No, it's just that my legs hurt."

As soon as the words fell, I saw Gu Rong's face froze, showing an expression of "lifting a rock to shoot myself in the foot".

"Xu Shuyan, I care about you with good intentions, do you insist on making others unhappy?"

"Gu Rong, this is my home, not your commander's mansion where everyone wants to look at you and talk nonsense. If you're so upside down and arrogant, shameless, the door is here, get out!"

After Xu Shuyan finished speaking with a sullen face, Gu Rong didn't get angry anymore. He stared at him as if he could see a scene on his face, and suddenly smiled strangely: "What leg hurts, you are just in a bad mood."

"...Does my mood have anything to do with you?"

"No."

"What are you doing here? If it's okay, I'm going to sleep—"

"Come dance with you."

"...?"

"The surname Xu was there just now. It's very annoying." The man threw the towel in his hand, and the military boots under his feet walked towards the black-haired young man standing by the door. "Do you remember the dance I taught you before?"

Xu Shuyan felt that this person's brain circuit was really magical——

At the banquet just now, he scolded someone angrily and rushed out of the door with a black face, but now he looks like a normal person and comes back with a happy face and says "Dance with you"...

After so many years, has the war driven people crazy?

So when the man approached, holding his waist with one hand, and pulling his hand into his arms with the other hand, Xu Shuyan asked sincerely, "Gu Rong, have you ever been shot in the head?"

The man didn't answer, but pressed the back of his head and pressed him against his chest——

The tip of Xu Shuyan's nose touched his strong chest, on which were cold metal medals and military uniform fabrics that were still soaked in water vapor.

no music.

But when a man takes a step, it's like stepping on a silent music point. His steps are elegant and skillful, and he is a qualified social dancer.

Xu Shuyan didn't want to go crazy with him, but his body was controlled by others, and he didn't have much energy after drinking alcohol before adding it, so he accompanied him in this weird behavior perfunctorily, and only asked him to get out as soon as he was satisfied.

"Two questions."

The man's voice is slightly hoarse.

"ask."

Xu Shuyan stepped on the man's military boots. Seeing that he didn't respond, he moved away without changing his expression.

"Why didn't you tell me about He Tangsheng blackmailing you before?"

"How to put it, it's a divorce, and if you don't say it, it's a divorce. After all, I lied to you," Xu Shuyan said, "I have malicious intentions in this matter, and I have no way to refute it, and I don't want to refute it."

He was right, to steal He Tangsheng's credit, marry into the Gu family, enjoy the glory and wealth, and leave He Tangsheng to stink and suffer in a dark corner, living like a street mouse, he deserves death.

He should also go to hell after death.

Gu Rong can't imagine why there are such bad people in the world. When he knew the truth, he was so angry that he wanted to strangle him...

After so many years, he never felt that he had any regrets or regrets about the end of this relationship——

Even if she made up her mind, she wouldn't take another look at this person until she stood in front of him again...

But he found that he was still a little bit cheap.

Especially when he saw Xu Yan and Xu Shuyan together, he felt very intrusive.

"Second question," Gu Rong pressed harder on the back of the black-haired young man's head, "Do you know that Xu Yan once had a childhood sweetheart who loved each other very much. How could people with such complicated backgrounds get together, and the two tried their best—then the woman came to the ancient Yancheng, and when she returned, her family somehow agreed to their marriage...the two happily prepared At the wedding, the bride died in a procession."

Xu Shuyan listened and raised his head to look at Gu Rong.

The calm and calm look in his eyes gave the man a stab in his heart.

"You know."

The adjectives he uses.

"I don't know," Xu Shuyan said lightly, "I have received so many idiots and complainers, how could everyone remember that whoever came to me was not trapped by love—"

Hearing his high-pitched tone that was none of your business, Gu Rong wished to slap him, her beautiful phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and she pushed him away from her arms: "At least you already knew that Xu Yan was close to you." You have evil intentions!"

"Yes, but it's much better than a person like you who writes malice on his face," Xu Shuyan said, "What are you going to investigate when you're full?"

"I'm full - Xu Shuyan, don't be ignorant!"

Xu Shuyan stopped talking, but silence was obviously more annoying than talking back... With a dance step, the man simply pressed him against the wall, lowered his head and asked him, "If you are short of someone, let's remarry, huh?"

These words were said in a flash of enthusiasm, and Gu Rong himself didn't know if he regretted it after he finished speaking.

Xu Shuyan smiled, and stretched out his hand to push him away: "This is the third question, and the dance is over, let's go."

Lost in his arms for a moment, the man stood there in a daze for a while.

"Xu Shuyan"? "

Even if there was regret, it was quickly covered by the coldness brought about by the other party's unhesitating refusal. The man called his name in disbelief——

"You clearly know that Xu Yan may be harboring evil intentions..."

"A fate will always have a beginning and an end. Even if the so-called fate is destined for three lives and a good fate is bestowed by God, it is just that they will go their separate ways after the third life." Xu Shuyan said lightly, "It's not a god, fate is destined, life after life In the "Book of Marriage in Immortal Class"...there is no banquet in the world that lasts forever, and the fourth generation who sits on the banquet and eats wine is probably still a sinner—"

"..."

"Who knows if I'm that latecomer?" Xu Shuyan waved his hand, "I just want to try, even if I fail, I won't kill anyone."

After hearing this, Gu Rong felt that he heard some big joke——

Holding the successor of the "Mozi line", it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the third-party controller of the world's marriage... However, in the world, he probably can't find anyone who is more laissez-faire and pessimistic about feelings than this person.

This is really a joke in the world.
