As a "straight" photographer who's rejected countless male models, Luo Qinglin has secretly loved his white moonlight Jiang Yanyu for seven years - a 195cm luxury runway model known as ...
Chapter 168 The First Quarrel
It is early winter now, and the weather on Qianyu Island is mild, with the highest temperature during the day not exceeding 30℃ and the temperature at night not lower than 20℃, making it a veritable winter resort.
Before the New Year, there were few tourists on Qianyu Island in December. Most of the people on the island were residents who had just returned from the sea. They were busy with the peak fishing season and were busy arranging their own homestays and restaurants before the peak tourist season arrived.
I don’t know whether Jiang Yanyu spent money to buy a sea view room or rented a seaside villa. Every day when Luo Qinglin opened the door to the terrace on the third floor, he could see the sparkling blue sea, undulating in the sun.
The salty and humid sea breeze blew into the room.
Luo Qinglin walked to the terrace, first stretched his arms, stretched his body to stretch his muscles, then climbed up the terrace railing, gracefully raised his hands to the top of his head, jumped lightly from the third floor.
There was a loud sound of water outside the window.
Jiang Yanyu suddenly opened his eyes, turned off the shower, wrapped the bath towel around his waist, and walked out the door with wet hair.
Boom!
Jiang Yanyu walked down to the first floor, pushed open the security door, went around to the back of the house, and looked at the people in the swimming pool with an expressionless face.
Luo Qinglin lay on the pink unicorn's swimming ring, looked at Jiang Yanyu, yawned and said, "Brother, come down and play~"
Jiang Yanyu walked to the edge of the swimming pool, looked down at Luo Qinglin, and said coldly: "Luo Qinglin, how many times have I told you not to jump from the balcony into the swimming pool? Do you want to be punished again?"
Luo Qinglin tilted his head lazily, naked, with half of his fair peach face facing him, "Okay, I haven't been punished for several days anyway, my skin is itching, come on, brother!"
After saying that, Luo Qinglin raised his left leg and hit his peach, making a crisp sound.
Provoked, Jiang Yanyu just stood by the swimming pool, pursed his lips and said nothing. He neither went down to deal with Luo Qinglin nor taught him a lesson with words.
Jiang Yanyu just sighed heavily after a period of silence, turned around without saying a word, and walked back into the room.
Looking at the back, Luo Qinglin frowned, wondering what tricks Jiang Yanyu was playing.
Jiang Yanyu has been in this abnormal state for several days.
Since the day she left Shanghai, Jiang Yanyu had been acting strange. She would stare at him in a daze from time to time, and she didn't punish him or kiss him. She would just kiss his forehead every day.
Luo Qinglin said he wanted to play a countdown game, and Jiang Yanyu cooperated. If his palms felt sore and he couldn't hold it with one hand, Jiang Yanyu would hold his hand to help.
Luo Qinglin couldn't explain the changes in Jiang Yanyu. It wasn't that she became gentler, nor that she was tired of him. It just made him feel strange.
I'm not used to Jiang Yanyu's attitude.
Luo Qinglin asked indirectly, acted like a spoiled child, pretended to be angry and asked several times, but he couldn't get an answer, so he had to find ways to make him angry in the hope of being punished.
Seeing a large swimming pool under the terrace, Luo Qinglin climbed up to the balcony and jumped down in front of Jiang Yanyu. Jiang Yanyu was so scared that he jumped down as well, and finally they both fell into the swimming pool.
Jiang Yanyu repeatedly warned him not to jump, but Luo Qinglin would not listen. Every morning as soon as he got up, he would take off his nightgown and jump into the swimming pool. Then he would lie on the sitting circle and wait quietly for Jiang Yanyu to teach him a lesson.
This was the seventh day that the two had been on Qianyu Island, and Jiang Yanyu had not only not gotten better, but had become increasingly strange, as if he had become a different person, his gentleness twisted into a distorted state.
Luo Qinglin eavesdropped on the audio records in the app, but they had been sticking together for the past few days and didn't find any flaws.
There was no other way, so Luo Qinglin asked for external help again and talked to Qin Xiaoxi, telling her the general situation.
But Qin Xiaoxi was busy attending the Fashion Week and could only find time to send him messages. For several days, she only received the advice "Why don't you just ask Brother Jiang directly."
If he really asked in anger, would Jiang Yanyu answer truthfully?
Luo Qinglin lay on the swimming ring, naked in the sun, thinking quietly, and almost forgot that Yu Qin would go to Qianyu Island for filming today.
"Luo Qinglin, come up and put on your clothes. Yu Qin is coming to shoot today."
Jiang Yanyu stood on the terrace, looking down at him from above, her eyes full of love, but this love was mixed with other emotions, and Luo Qinglin just felt weird.
Yu Qin is coming to shoot...?
Luo Qinglin quickly stood up, turned his head, looked at his naked back, swam quickly to the shore, and took the bath towel from the beach chair to wrap around his body.
Because of his diligent exercise recently, Luo Qinglin can run from the first floor to the third floor in one breath without even taking a breath.
After quickly washing up, Luo Qinglin stood in front of the wardrobe, looked left and right at the cabinet of daily clothes, not satisfied, then stood in front of another cabinet and chose from a pile of skirts.
After thinking for a moment, Luo Qinglin chose a little black dress for herself, took a pair of large sunglasses from Jiang Yanyu's closet, put them on her nose, and walked out of the cloakroom barefoot.
Jiang Yanyu had already changed into a pair of black beach pants and was standing behind the cloakroom door. When he saw Luo Qinglin coming out, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why are you dressed like this?"
"I just like dressing like this." Luo Qinglin raised his sunglasses, his face expressionless and cold.
Jiang Yanyu was silent for a moment, then asked suspiciously: "Luo Qinglin, these should be my sunglasses, right?"
Luo Qinglin coughed uncomfortably and continued in a cold voice: "What's yours and mine? What's yours is mine, and I am yours too."
Luo Qinglin was obviously abnormal, Jiang Yanyu reminded him: "We are going out for a photo shoot in a while, are you sure you want to go out dressed like this? I don't mind, but you..."
"I'm not going out. I want to play games!" Luo Qinglin said.
Thinking that Luo Qinglin was going to play the countdown game right now, Jiang Yanyu reminded him, "Let's talk about it after the filming is over. There's not enough time now. It's too late."
"It's not too late. I've already told Director Yu that I'm going to play role-playing games today." Luo Qinglin said without question.
-
When Yu Qin arrived at the seaside villa, he had already cursed countless times in his heart, "stinking capitalists", "squeezing the hard-earned money of the lower classes to go on vacation", "why come to the beach again, he hates the sea!"
Standing in front of the iron gate covered by Monstera, Yu Qin prepared himself mentally, then pressed the doorbell, smiled energetically, and waited for Luo Qinglin to open the door.
In just a few seconds, the iron gate opened automatically, and the person who came to greet him was not the usual enthusiastic Luo Qinglin, but Jiang Yanyu.
Jiang Yanyu had a stinky face and was wearing no clothes except a pair of swimming trunks. His body was wet, as if he had just come out of a swimming pool.
"Jiang, Mr. Jiang?" Yu Qin asked cautiously and tentatively.
"Come in." Jiang Yanyu said coldly, turned around and led people into the house.
Jiang Yanyu's footsteps were inexplicably loud, not as steady and elegant as before, but instead had the childish sound of a dandy boy.
"Um...Mr. Jiang, where is Mr. Luo?"
Without Luo Qinglin, Yu Tan didn't dare to face Jiang Yanyu alone and felt scared.
Walking into the room, Yu Qin finally saw Luo Qinglin, but he felt even more scared, even more scared than facing Jiang Yanyu alone.
Luo Qinglin didn't know what was wrong with her. She was wearing a black dress and sunglasses that were half the size of her face. She was half lying lazily on the chaise longue, her toes swaying in the air, looking arrogant.
Luo Qinglin initially sent a message to tell him that Jiang Yanyu wanted to play role-playing games and not go out to shoot, but what was wrong with this game? Did the boss and Canary exchange their scripts?
Yu Qin walked lightly to Luo Qinglin's side, covered his mouth and asked softly, "Mr. Luo, did you have a fight with Mr. Jiang?"
Luo Qinglin slowly stood up and spoke to Yu Qin, but his eyes fell on Jiang Yanyu, "Arguing? What are you arguing about? What qualifications does Jiang Yanyu have to argue with me?"
The man who was scolded said nothing, standing there looking coldly at Luo Qinglin. Yu Qin thought he was going to explode, but Jiang Yanyu just turned around and strode to the sofa to sit down.
Looking at the abnormal appearance of the two people, Yu Qin had only one thought in his mind - these two people were going to act again, and he and his subordinates would be in trouble again.
After hesitating for a moment, Yu Qin sighed and whispered, "Mr. Luo, if you have any conflicts with Mr. Jiang, talk it out. Quarrels hurt feelings."
"Director Yu, tell me, if your boyfriend," Luo Qinglin was silent for a moment, and then added, "or your girlfriend, is hiding something from you and won't tell you no matter how you ask, what should you do?"
"This..." Yu Qin glanced at Jiang Yanyu, determined to stand on Luo Qinglin's side, and replied, "I will interrogate him until he tells me. If he doesn't, I will run away from home and break up with him and find someone else!"
"Did you hear that?" Luo Qinglin raised his chin and said to Jiang Yanyu, "You'd better tell me now, otherwise I'll get angry, run away from home, and find someone else!"
Jiang Yanyu frowned and glanced over coldly, as cold as ice on a snowy night. His gaze swept across the two of them, first looking at Yu Qin with disdain, then stopping on Luo Qinglin after a moment.
"Luo Qinglin, try saying that again?" Jiang Yanyu said in a serious tone. He was really angry, and his eyes were full of crazy paranoia and anger.
Luo Qinglin felt a little guilty, thinking that he should not have blindly repeated Yu Qin's words and should have removed the last sentence.
Luo Qinglin coughed lightly and took a deep breath, "Then just tell me directly, what have you been thinking about these days? What are you going crazy about? If you are dissatisfied with me, then just say it directly, why are you hiding it?"
After hearing this, Yu Qin was convinced that the two people were really having a conflict.
The old fox must have done something bad again in the past few days, which made Luo Qinglin so angry. Otherwise, how could Luo Qinglin, such a good-tempered person, lose his temper?
No wonder Luo Qinglin later sent another message asking for help, asking him to help persuade Jiang Yanyu. It turned out that the two had a big conflict!
"Yes, Mr. Jiang," Yu Qin followed up and advised, "What can't lovers say to each other? Just tell me what's on your mind, Mr. Luo will definitely understand."
Luo Qinglin nodded and threatened fiercely: "Jiang Yanyu, I have tolerated you for seven days. If you don't change back to your original appearance today, I will run away from home!"
When Jiang Yanyu heard this, his fox eyes widened and gleamed with disbelief and gloom, bursting out and shooting fiercely at Luo Qinglin.
Feeling weak from the stare, Luo Qinglin slightly suppressed his arrogance and compromised: "Of course, I won't look for anyone else. I'm going back to the capital. When you want to tell me, I'll come back!"
Hearing this, Yu Qin sighed inwardly, thinking that Luo Qinglin really couldn't quarrel with anyone.
After just two sentences of the quarrel, Luo Qinglin gave in. It didn't sound like she was having a quarrel, but rather acting like a spoiled child.
"Anyway, you must explain it clearly today, otherwise I will go back to the capital!"
As if he felt that he had compromised too quickly and could not save face, Luo Qinglin thought that his threats were fierce, but the tense atmosphere had dissipated and the quarrel could not break out anymore.
The atmosphere softened slightly, like a fire put out by water, hissing with steam.
The two of them were silent. Yu Qin was caught in the middle and didn't dare to say much. He prepared to find a chance to slip away and wait for the two to resolve their conflict before coming back to shoot in a few days.
Yu Qin firmly believed that Jiang Yanyu could not live without Luo Qinglin. He was simply a pervert and a paranoid. No matter how much they quarreled, they would never break up.
After a few minutes of silence, Yu Qin was unsure of the situation and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Luo, are we still going to shoot today? How about... I will come to shoot after you and Mr. Jiang make up?"
"want......"
Luo Qinglin was about to speak when Jiang Yanyu interrupted him, "Director Yu, please leave first. I'll contact you for the shoot when we have discussed it. Thank you for your help."
The honorifics sounded creepy. Yu Qin coughed lightly a few times and easily betrayed his camp, ignoring the rejection look that Luo Qinglin sent him.
"Mr. Jiang, Mr. Luo, see you in a few days."
Yu Qin picked up the equipment, said goodbye to the two of them, and ran away without looking back.
The conflict that Canary provoked for the first time started off well but ended badly. Although he was aggressive, he couldn't even keep his allies, leaving Luo Qinglin alone to face Jiang Yanyu.
The sound of Yu Qin's fleeing footsteps gradually faded away and ended with the faint sound of a door closing.
Facing Jiang Yanyu alone, Luo Qinglin's arrogance was suppressed for the most part, leaving only sporadic sparks that could not cause any waves.
Luo Qinglin said nothing, folded his arms, and peeked at Jiang Yanyu's expression through his sunglasses.
Perhaps stimulated by his words "find someone else", Jiang Yanyu's eyes were filled with a terrible and fierce cold light. This ferocity was not directed at the hated opponent, but at the prey that he was eager to devour.
"It's no use looking at me like that. I must get an answer today, otherwise I will go back to the capital." Luo Qinglin spoke fiercely, but his body retreated and hid in the chaise longue.
Jiang Yanyu's sunglasses were too big, and when worn on Luo Qinglin's small face, they always slid down, making them look funny instead of aggressive.
Rubbing his eyebrows, Jiang Yanyu sighed lightly, sat back on the sofa, and stared at the dark brown wooden floor.
"Luo Qinglin, why do you want to let Qin Xiaoxi live her own life? Don't you want her to stay with you forever?" Jiang Yanyu asked.
Luo Qinglin didn't understand how Jiang Yanyu's abnormal behavior could be related to Qin Xiaoxi, and replied puzzledly: "Because she has grown up."
Hearing this, Jiang Yanyu pursed his lips and remained silent for a long time before speaking, "What about you, Luo Qinglin, don't you want to grow up and live your own life?"
Suddenly, Luo Qinglin seemed to know why Jiang Yanyu had been upset and abnormal these days.
The vixen's mind was so fragile that every word he said was taken seriously, and she kept it in pain inside for several days.
Luo Qinglin sighed, hiding his eyes behind his sunglasses, and regardless of his image, he rolled his eyes and raised his voice to question:
"Jiang Yanyu, let me ask you, how can I grow up? How can I, an adult who has been working formally for nearly three years and working part-time alone for nearly ten years, grow up?"
The author has something to say:
Luo Qinglin: If I don’t get angry, does that mean I’m treating people as fools?
