big brother next door

? After a week or two after that, Chu Li was quite obedient and didn't come to her apartment suddenly to give her a 'surprise' or anything.However, Ling Qiu was still in a state of fear.Just imagine that Zuo Luyi had just told her not to fall in love, and then a wild man popped out - she really didn't want to know what expression Zuo Luyi would have on his face.

It's because of this that Ling Qiu has never found a chance to speak up, or it's courage... She really wants to tell Zuo Luyi that it's okay to fall in love before marriage, and falling in love can help both parties understand each other.But Zuo Luyi won't listen... He will probably look at him with a terrifying look, and in the end he will be the one who obediently admits and says "Brother Zuo Luyi, I was wrong"...

Ling Qiu, who felt unable to attack head-on, also secretly went to Zuo Luji. She felt that Zuo Luji was one year younger than herself, and his brother should have told him about finding a girlfriend. Maybe she could ask him for reference. .

"Huh? Finding a girlfriend? Zuo Luyi never told me that, why did he tell me that kind of thing?" Zuo Luji squinted at Ling Qiu while chewing on the pizza.

"So you mean, you can find a girlfriend wherever you want, and your brother won't care about you...?"

"Of course he won't care about it! Even my parents can't care about it! Ah, but our family chooses a partner from Meteor Street. When we reach an age, we find someone who looks pleasing to the eye to marry, and it can't be regarded as love. Well. Anyway, I have a lot of wives in the game, so Zuo Luyi won't care about me."

Nonsense... Who cares what you do in the game... You are in the game, no, maybe no one cares about you when you sell chrysanthemums in reality, you are a dead house that neither father nor mother loves... And what is Meteor Street? Ghost...doesn't sound like a good place.Could it be a place like Flower Street and Willow Lane, an institution that specializes in training women who will be wives of killer families...?

"Meteor Street? Then Mrs. Zuo Jiqiu...?"

"Yes, my mother is also from Meteor Street. By the way, why are you asking this?"

"A few days ago, I asked Zuo Lu Yin -- in short, he told me not to think about dating now, but how can I get married if I don't date... So I came to ask you to see the situation..."

"Haha!" Zuo Luji laughed gloatingly, "My family's deacon will be killed as soon as he has a partner, so he told you that because you are also working for my family. Since he paid for my family's life, You go get me a bottle of drink now, go quickly!"

Ling Qiu pulled out the injection with a blank expression, "The 10% second-stage formula is a little unstable and still under improvement. Do you want to inject it now, Second Young Master?"

Zuo Luji was so frightened that he rolled and fell off the chair, picked up a Qingyin pillow, and shielded himself in front of him with a terrified expression.

"Get off, get off!! You and big brother will create a zombie crisis sooner or later!! Don't get me involved!! Get out!"

Ling Qiu was pushed out of Zuo Luji's computer room, and looked angrily at the closed door behind him, Ling Qiu silently took the injection back, she didn't care about the second-generation formula that she finally developed. Will it be wasted on a fat man...

But it turned out that Zuo Luyi treated himself as a domestic servant to restrain him?Do not make jokes! !For the first time Ling Qiu felt disappointed and angry, he just signed the contract, and he was not his maid.It's fine to do all the tasks and research Zuo Luyi gave her, that's her own duty.But I have promised to abide by the confidentiality treaty, why is my personal freedom restricted by Zuo Luyi!

Enough is enough, I don't want to listen to his words like before, Ling Qiu's heart was inexplicably ignited.

Feeling sad for no reason, Ling Qiu immediately realized why he was so angry.

I have always liked this person, even if the other party has no reaction, it doesn't matter. If you train too harshly, you can think that the other party wants to make yourself stronger as soon as possible.It is understandable for him to have a different opinion than his own, considering his background.I have been obediently listening to the other party, obeying his instructions and never resisting, because I imagined that the other party cared about me a little bit.But once he finds that the other party only treats himself as a first-class person, he just regards himself as an obedient pawn.

All the love before has turned into anger.

That's right, how long will I have to deceive myself, the expression of true love for me on my bamboo horse's face in the amusement park will never appear on that person's face.

Ling Qiu walked into his bedroom, lay down on the bed and buried his face in the pillow, suddenly wanted to cry.

"Ding Dong"

Ling Qiu grabbed the phone angrily, and glanced at the newly incoming text message.

[Xiao Ling, are you also on holiday this November?Can I come to you? 】

Ling Qiu stared at this text message for a long time.

【Yes, my apartment is on the top floor. When you come, ring the doorbell of the apartment and I will open the door for you】

If there is no hope for one thing, just force yourself to find a new beginning.

But no matter what, Ling Qiu still sensibly didn't say anything.It's one thing to be angry, but it's another to provoke a far stronger opponent because of anger - that's stupid.

It was Zuo Luyi who stood in front of her before blocking all the light and making her unable to see the direction clearly. After Ling Qiu figured it out, he soon remembered that the person who signed the contract with her was obviously Grandpa Zuo Jie.Then if you feel good after dating Chu Li for a while, wouldn't it be enough to tell Grandpa Zuo Jie to get his approval?

"jingle jingle jingle"

The doorbell under the apartment rang, Ling Qiu looked at the display screen of the communicator, and pressed the unlock button.A few minutes later, after there was a knock on the door, Ling Qiu opened the door for Chu Li.

"Well, Xiao Ling..." Ling Qiu closed the door and let Chu Li into the living room. After both of them sat down on the sofa, Chu Li didn't immediately talk about going to play together during the holiday, but seemed to have made a big decision Opened the same mouth.

"I still want to finish what I didn't say to you in the amusement park." Chu Li looked at Ling Qiu seriously and intently, with a trace of determination different from usual on his energetic face.

"I have liked you since I was a child. You are really smart, but I don't think you are as arrogant as others say. You were not very good at contacting others at that time, but I have always seen that you are You are awkward and trying your best to be considerate of others. You are softer than anyone else in your heart, and I like you who are so gentle. I have always liked you."

"After you moved, I found that I still like you. My parents tried to arrange a blind date for me in disguise, but no matter how good the other party is, I will still think of you. You are irreplaceable to me." Said At this point, Chu Li's face turned red, and he couldn't help lowering his head a little.But as if wanting to say all the words that he couldn't say before, Chu Li quickly raised his head again, "I'm sorry, I'm very guilty for not being by your side when you were most vulnerable Not supporting you when you need help the most. But, can you give me a chance to be with you for the rest of your time? I swear I will do my best not to let you be hurt again any harm."

"So, can you date me on the premise of getting married?"

Ling Qiu bit his lip.

Not as touched as expected, but Ling Qiu was still ready to answer him.

"That is impossible--"

"!!" Ling Qiu's whole body broke out in a layer of cold sweat, Zuo Luyi! !Why, Ling Qiu was sure that there was no one else in the room except himself in those few hours just now!Could it be from the window... This is the 21st floor? !

"Left, brother Zuo Luyi, why are you here?" Ling Qiu almost jumped up from the sofa, and subconsciously blocked Zuo Luyi's view of Chu Li, and asked stutteringly.

"Because after the [-]th holiday started, there were a lot of clients entrusting tasks. A task I received today happened to be around here, and I will come and see you after it is resolved."

Zuo Luyi didn't seem to be angry at all, but just narrated the facts monotonously and calmly.But Ling Qiu is very clear that if he answers even one sentence wrong from now on, Zuo Luyi doesn't know what he will do.

"But I really didn't expect it, Qiuyu. So you asked me that kind of question because of this? Sure enough, you lied to me before, just for this kind of thing?"

Zuo Luyi's hair has been grown a lot, and the smooth black hair has a little drooping feeling, and the ends of the hair can just touch his shoulders.He also combed his bangs, leaving only a few strands of hair hanging beside his face, making his jade-like skin even fairer.But what Ling Qiu feels from Zuo Luyi now is not the feeling of a gentleman like jade. Zuo Luyi just stood there quietly, but Ling Qiu began to notice that the temperature in the room brought a slight chill.

"Excuse me, who are you? Isn't it tasteless to break into a girl's room like this? And this is between me and Xiao Ling, please leave now." Chu Li behind Ling Qiu also stood up , questioning Zuo Luyi in a rather bad tone.

Zuo Luyi didn't even give Chu Li a look, but just looked down at Ling Qiu, quietly waiting for her answer.

Ling Qiu also lowered his head and didn't care about Chu Li, he absolutely couldn't speak for Chu Li, he could only put on an obedient attitude, and then put forward his own point of view from the perspective that this would not harm the Zuo family.

Ling Qiu tried his best to stop his body from shaking.

"It's not because I really want to fall in love. But I do think that if I want to get married in the future, it is necessary to spend a period of time with the other party to determine whether the two parties are suitable."

Zuo Luyi listened to Ling Qiu's words expressionlessly, "That's it, then I can rest assured."

Speaking of being relieved, Zuo Luyi began to exude a malice that cannot be ignored, but told Ling Qiu clearly that he had no intention of letting him go.

"I can advise you without reservation, you and him are not suitable at all."

"I said it has nothing to do with you! This is a matter between me and Xiao Ling! Even if you refuse, it's not your turn to talk!"

Neither Ling Qiu nor Zuo Luyi responded to him.Zuo Luyi simply ignored what he thought was the interest of irrelevant people, but Ling Qiu was completely suppressed by Zuo Luyi's increasingly strong aura.

Ling Qiu had only seen Zuo Luyi like this once before.That task was a bit tricky, so Zuo Luyi brought himself and Zuo Luqi to the scene to help.Ling Qiu didn't know exactly what happened, but after she unlocked the password of the mission target safe, eliminated the biochemical toxins in it, and successfully obtained the item described by the client.When he rushed back to the scene, Zuo Luyi exuded an aura that made people want to retreat, while Zuo Luqi bowed his head in front of him without saying a word.

She walked over with some anxiety, Zuo Luqi looked up at her expressionlessly, Ling Qiu was taken aback by Zuo Luqi's lifeless eyes.Zuo Luqi didn't respond, he went straight past Ling Qiu who was hesitant to speak, and went back to Zuo's house by himself.After Zuo Luqi left, Zuo Luyi's aura gradually weakened, and Ling Qiu handed things to Zuo Luyi.After Zuo Luyi took it, he didn't rush to confirm on the spot, but patted Ling Qiu's head and said something in a low voice.

"You are such a good boy, Qiuci"

It was the first time that Zuo Luyi called himself by some kind of intimate name, although the remaining aura on Zuo Luyi made Ling Qiu feel a little uneasy.But at that time, the malice was not towards himself, and he liked Zuo Luyi more than he feared.But when he took a casual glance at that time, Ling Qiu still seemed to see that there seemed to be a corpse of a child about the same age as Zuo Luqi at the scene of the murder.

Now, Ling Qiu really felt a biting chill.Cold sweat flowed down the spine, Ling Qiu couldn't help shivering.

Zuo Luyi's malice enveloped him unreservedly, perhaps with a hint of killing intent in it.Zuo Luyi seldom shows his emotions, and usually treats himself as a dead thing, only showing murderous aura at the moment of attack, this is the rule he taught Ling Qiu and he strictly abides by.

No matter what he said verbally, Zuo Luyi is really angry now.Ling Qiu realized this, and his body was completely immobilized.And Zuo Luyi continued to explain his opinion.

"Because you were born to be a killer—"

"Hey! Don't pretend you didn't hear, and what nonsense are you talking about!" Chu Li couldn't help but rushed towards Zuo Luyi, as if he wanted to drive Zuo Luyi out of the room.

Zuo Luyi's expression didn't fluctuate, and he casually threw three acupuncture needles at Chu Li.With a muffled sound, Chu Li fell heavily on the floor.

"You lack the sympathy that ordinary humans have. For people whose minds are much lower than yours, doing live experiments on them is no different from using animals to do experiments on them. Driven by pride and pride, it is your greatest pleasure to complete the goal of challenging yourself by constantly defeating them."

"Because you were discovered by me in this way. Is it really suitable for you to be with such a man?"

"I—" Restraining his fear, Ling Qiu gritted his teeth, trying to express his opinion, "But I can also be a normal person, and I can continue to work—"

Zuo Luyi didn't intend to give her a chance to speak at all, so he interrupted her and continued.

"Impossible, how could you have a relationship with an ordinary man? Now your judgment of people can only be killed or not, because that's how I taught you."

"I checked after I had a hunch that you lied to me. This neighbor of yours is just too dazzling for you, making you unable to see the direction for a while. It's not that you really have a good impression."

Ling Qiu stared blankly at Zuo Luyi, not knowing how to react.She wanted to refute that if nothing had happened before, she might not have fallen in love with Chu Li, but then she thought that many of what Zuo Luyi said were true.She did feel hesitant and uneasy about what Zuo Luyi taught her, but after she actually did it, she didn't feel guilty as imagined.Maybe Zuo Luyi is right, because her IQ is much higher than ordinary people, she sometimes really finds it incredible that people who are clumsy and unable to learn anything.She also finds it incredible to see other people helping such people.But her parents told her to care about other people's feelings, otherwise she would not be able to get along with others, so she gradually learned to pretend to be gentle.Acting a little weak is not harmful to others.Always be good-natured and listen to what others are saying, and then reply with what they want to hear.In this way, everyone began to believe that she was very kind.

But deep down, she still attributed the behavior of these people to the mutual sympathy between the weak - if they are all weak, they will help each other to fight against the strong, and if one side of the alliance does not pose a threat, the other side will treat itself like Pamper each other like pets.So since they are so pathetic, while licking each other's wounds, they didn't change their minds at all, and clamored that it was the fault of people like Ling Qiu.Then I just follow what they said, don't treat them as human beings at all, dissect them, do experiments, and let these human beings who will never make much contribution to society make a little contribution, isn't that okay?

After she dissected one, two, ten, and a hundred corpses, and did ten, hundreds, and thousands of experiments.The feeling of guilt never appeared again, and everything suddenly became a matter of course.If asked how it feels to do these things, she can only answer "no feeling".

Really, after becoming such a me, why didn't I reject Chu Li from the beginning?

Are you delusional because you refuse to see yourself as you are, or are you disappointed because Zuo Luyi will never respond?

"Even if you stay by his side, one day you will try to kill him. Because you are a born killer."

Ling Qiu kept his head down, unable to utter a rebuttal.

"What are you thinking about now?" Zuo Luyi tilted his head.

"I...it's nothing, Zuo Luyi, what you said is indeed right...I..." I just wanted to resist you suddenly.

"As I said, you don't need to be in love. That kind of thing only betrays, and if the other party betrays you, you also betray your lover, and then, kill him."

"Just like this" Zuo Luyi threw out a nail, which is different from acupuncture needles, the effect of the nail is much stronger.After the nail entered the back of Chu Li's head, Chu Li fell to the ground and his body twitched violently.

"!!!" Ling Qiu raised his head abruptly, and moved his body quickly in the direction of Chu Li.But Zuo Luyi's actions were too fast, before Ling Qiu could react, the matter was over.

"You!!" Ling Qiu exclaimed in disbelief, "If that's the case, do you mean that I will never even think about getting married for the rest of my life, and obediently work for your family?! I'm not your family, no , I am not your servant! Don't keep restricting my personal freedom!"

Did he, did he really kill Chu Li?The only person who can prove that he had a normal, healthy and happy childhood, just disappeared?After shouting at Zuo Luyi as if venting, Ling Qiu lowered his head in despair.Moreover, I still don't have the strength to resist Zuo Luyi at all!

"What are you talking about?" Zuo Luyi frowned, his eyes looked at Ling Qiu like two bottomless black holes, "Didn't I tell you explicitly, I will give instructions when the right time comes You? At that time, you just need to complete the wedding ceremony with me. But after I told you that, you still had relationships with other men, and even lied to me. Even if I always dote on you, Qiuci I will still be angry if you do this, and this cannot be fooled by the excuse of personal freedom."

"Huh?!" Ling Qiu raised his head and stared at Zuo Luyi almost in shock, his sad and angry feelings were instantly frightened and disappeared.I'm very sorry, but when you hear explosive news all of a sudden, most people will be frightened and temporarily forget about other things, right?

"Eh?" Zuo Luyi was also taken aback by Ling Qiu's reaction, and looked at Ling Qiu with some puzzlement, the murderous aura on his body was interrupted like this, and it didn't radiate so much.

"Sorry, I think I probably didn't hear what you said just now, Brother Zuo Luyi, can you repeat it from the beginning?"

Although she seemed a little curious why Ling Qiu said that, because she obviously heard everything.But Zuo Luyi still had a good temper and repeated what he said just now, word for word.

"... You didn't say at that time that you wanted me to marry you! You only said 'I will instruct you when the right time comes', and you didn't say that you wanted me to marry you at all!" And what Ling Qiu wants to complain more is, Zuo Luyi, when did you ever spoil me! !

"Isn't this obvious?" Zuo Luyi frowned, and the expression on his face returned to his usual calm expression, and he said in a very natural tone.

"You were raised by me, and now you have grown quite well. And I know everything about you. From every aspect, you will never betray me, because you like me so much. And I I also like you very much, Qiuci, so after I told you like that, shouldn't you understand what the instructions I told you are?"

"You don't understand, do you!? You didn't make it clear at all!" Ling Qiu couldn't stand it and yelled, did Zuo Luyi think she was as narcissistic as him? !If she doesn't make it clear, how shameless she must be to think narcissistically, when someone says to herself, "I will instruct you when you should get married", it is a disguised marriage proposal!

"Zuo Luji also said that your family will choose the right person to marry on Meteor Street when they reach their age! Then it's even more impossible to think that what you said is what you mean!"

Zuo Luyi sighed helplessly, "Did Zuo Luji say that? Alas, don't take his words too seriously. Although our father and grandpa chose the right people on Meteor Street, if someone you like The candidate can also be married. I want you very much, Qiuci."

"Ugh—" Ling Qiu choked for a moment, he really couldn't believe what that fellow Zuo Luji said!That unreliable fellow! "But why do you say I like you in such a firm tone! You are too narcissistic!" No, this is right... But Ling Qiu feels that if he doesn't refute now, then he is admitting in disguise that he has been Have a crush on Zuo Luyi? !

"Huh?" Zuo Luyi tilted his head, and said suspiciously, "Don't you like me? Well, look, you sleep with the pillow I gave you every day, and there are my photos in your phone. Yes Now, I want to praise you for your skill in taking pictures secretly, I didn’t even feel that you were taking pictures secretly at that time. You would blush when I touched your head, and—”

"Stop!!" Ling Qiu hurriedly covered Zuo Luyi's mouth, this was the first time Ling Qiu felt so ashamed.I was so ashamed that I almost exploded, my face turned completely tomato-colored, so red that I thought it was about to bleed.

"Oh——" Zuo Luyi looked at Ling Qiu calmly, and then showed a small smile, a little proud and a little frightened.He put up a finger and said in a serious manner, "So you are shy, Qiu Citron? Don't be shy, I have been watching you all the time, and I know everything about you, so I am sure that you like me. I know. And I like you too, Qiuyu, isn't it a matter of course that we get married?"

However, Ling Qiu decided not to listen to Zuo Luyi's words today, "...Didn't you just say that being in love is unnecessary at all? Isn't it considered being in a relationship before getting married?"

Zuo Luyi was silent for two seconds, and then said in a 'that's it' tone.

"This is different. Compared with others, only I will always care about you, take care of you, and guide you to grow up outstandingly. I understand you better than anyone else, and I can tolerate everything about you and develop all your potential. You If you need a partner who is always by your side, no one is more suitable for you than me."

Then Zuo Luyi's expression changed slightly, Ling Qiu could almost hear a tremor in his voice.

"As for Qiuyu, you have good physical fitness. Although you haven't practiced since childhood, you can still reach the level of your mother. This is due to your willingness to work hard and your strong character. But what I like more is your mind. It’s great, your research has already reached the highest level in Asia at a young age. If you can maintain it in the future, your future is limitless. This makes me want you very much Qiuyu, I really, really like you gone."

Zuo Luyi bent down, and brought his face closer, Ling Qiu looked at Zuo Luyi's magnified face a little unresponsively.For the first time, she saw such an obvious expression of desire on this man's face.

He was smiling, and his eyes were opened wider than usual. In these pair of black pupils, Ling Qiu seemed to see a bottomless black vortex.He stretched out his hand, and gently placed it on Ling Qiu's head, his movements were very gentle, stroking Ling Qiu one by one.

This action was like smoothing the cat's fur, and Zuo Luyi's actions were indeed as if he was comforting himself.But for no reason, Ling Qiu had the feeling that Zuo Luyi would not let him leave, that he would be completely controlled by Zuo Luyi.

Zuo Luyi leaned closer to Ling Qiu's ear, and whispered like a sympathizer: "You and I are originally a cooperative relationship of mutual benefit, and our interests are related. After marrying me, it is even more impossible for me to hurt you. The decision I make must be based on the common interests of you and me. So before we got married, we were directly in the relationship of a fiancée, not the kind of fragile relationship that ordinary people fall in love with that cannot withstand scrutiny?"

Even if it was preaching, Zuo Luyi had never said so many things to himself at once.But is this a confession?Zuo Luyi told all the reasons why he wanted to marry him, and he didn't expect Zuo Luyi to be so good at talking about love.Although his tone was as if the head teacher was explaining to the students why they washed their hands before meals, Ling Qiu still felt a little sweet for no reason.

But I was at a loss and didn't know what kind of reaction to make. I always thought that I was wishful thinking and unrequited love, and never thought that I would get a response.As a result, suddenly, things took a completely unexpected turn.Different from what I imagined, the other party seemed to care about me very much, and even directly asked for marriage.At this time, he didn't know what kind of expression to put on his face, Ling Qiu simply gave up thinking.

She capriciously followed her desire and did something she had never dared to do before.

Ling Qiuyu took a small step forward, just like what he had imagined when he first fell in love with Zuo Luyi, and gently hugged Zuo Luyi.She raised her head and carefully kissed Zuo Luyi's chin, then quickly buried her face in his chest.

Zuo Luyi smiled softly, Ling Qiu felt his chest tremble slightly.His hands also wrapped around Ling Qiu's waist, deepening the embrace, and wrapping Ling Qiu firmly in his arms.

Then he also kissed Ling Qiuyu gently on the top of Ling Qiuyu's head.
