Chapter 32 Chapter 32 Jin Man doesn’t want anything…
Jin Man didn't want anything. He remembered the principle of "one should be grateful for what one has received" clearly when he was a child, but he was fooled by it when he grew up.
Once he suffers a loss, he will remember the pain for the rest of his life.
Lu Yanlin is a polite man and is not stingy with his wealth. He can hire a top lawyer worth tens of millions to defend an unknown worker and never mention a word about it afterwards.
It took Jin Man a long time to realize it, but by then it was too late to thank or refuse.
He was not good at guessing whether these things had other value, but in any case, they could not be kept.
He picked up the gifts and stuffed them back into Lu Yanlin's hands. Jin Man's fingers and cheeks looked warm and rough, which made Lu Yanlin want to hold them gently and take a closer look.
But Jin Man didn't stay in front of Lu Yanlin for long. He limped, nimbly supporting his hoe. "Take it back and keep it for yourself. I won't need it here."
When he said this, it was just like when he said to Lu Yanlin, "Let me give you some money, you've worked too hard to pay for your studies." There was a bit of unfamiliarity in his words, but he was genuinely trying to be nice to him.
The fireflies in summer fly and fly and land on the edge of the sink.
Lu Yanlin held the gift, as if he agreed. In fact, he couldn't answer anything. He smelled a little bit of Alph scent, and the glands on the back of his neck began to stir.
He shifted the focus and remained polite.
Although the yard was messy, there were no other people's daily necessities, which meant that Jin Man still lived alone. He was slightly excited about this discovery.
He noticed a stool next to the backpack. Lu Yanlin asked himself if he was cruel enough to let an injured person stand with him for a long time. He bent down and tried to pick up the chair.
"etc--"
Jin Man saw him bending over and subconsciously said, "Don't move."
That chair and this yard are all Jinman's. He likes to put that chair next to the sink. The puppy sometimes climbs up on it and goes to the trough to drink water.
Well, that's it.
Not because he was being lazy and using a chair to prop up a rickety sink.
This kind of country stuff is made of random materials and not very precise ingredients. A domino effect may occur at any time due to a slight accidental tilt.
The stone trough is large and heavy, and does its job of storing water.
I thought that Jin Man would look at me a few more times today, and the deadline was approaching. Suddenly, I fell with a thud, and the water spilled all over the floor.
Lu Yanlin's face changed slightly, and he subconsciously pulled Jin Man back. The heavy sink didn't hit Jin Man, but it hit Lu Yanlin, wetting his clothes, shoes, and gifts. It fell over and broke the lilac tree.
The crackling sound of trees breaking was particularly harsh.
He held Jin Man in his arms, still in shock. The two were very close to each other, and their clothes were wet.
Jin was stunned and frightened. He jumped away from the Omega a beat late.
Lu Yanlin's body shook. He stared at Jin Man's evasive movements. He didn't speak for a long time, but just lowered his head silently to tidy up his wet clothes.
Jin Man realized that he had overreacted, but he couldn't control himself. He opened his mouth and pulled a towel from the wire, but didn't hand it to him directly: "Did you bump into anything? - Wipe it first. These towels are all used by me. There is a small shop in the village. I'll go buy a new one."
"Nothing hit, don't worry."
Lu Yanlin's face was indifferent. He shook his head gently, glanced at Jin Man, and then looked at his injured ankle.
It’s not particularly cold in summer, but Lu Yanlin sneezed.
Jin Man hesitated for a moment and then let Lu Yanlin into the house.
Lu Yanlin stood in the simple house, and the Alpha's pheromones hit him in the face.
The towel was still handed to him. After being exposed to the sun all day, the towel was full of the scent of soap. It was hard and not soft.
He wiped his cheeks carefully and said to Jin Man, "Have you made many friends here?"
Jin Man opened the cabinet and listened carefully. His breathing was a little fast and muffled. He didn't turn around: "What did you say?"
Lu Yanlin smiled and shook his head: "Nothing."
Jin Man's shoulders relaxed suddenly, and Lu Yanlin knew that Jin Man had actually heard it clearly, but he didn't want to answer, so he asked again, as if he was sure that Lu Yanlin would not ask a second time.
Jin Man couldn't tell whether he had become smarter or because he knew too much.
He didn't find any clothes from the closet, only a scarf, which Lu Yanlin had given him about five years ago when their relationship was still good. Somehow, it was put inside a down jacket for winter and sent out.
He handed the scarf to Lu Yanlin: "Wipe it off and go back early."
Lu Yanlin glanced at him and took it. Five years ago, he was dressed in a suit and driving a luxury car. He had everything. Jin Man gave him clothes, a hat, gloves, and food. Five years later, his clothes and shoes got wet. Jin Man searched the closet for a long time and only gave him an old scarf that he had given away.
Jin Man jumped out of the house. He didn't care what Lu Yanlin did with his clothes, nor did he care if he saw the shabby and messy room.
He threw his towel into the sink to wash it, rubbing it vigorously. He didn't want the towel anymore, but it was not good to waste things.
Lu Yanlin sat alone in the room, and slowly raised his hand to wipe the water marks on his arm.
After Jin Man hung up the towel, Lu Yanlin also packed up and walked out of the house.
His face was calm, and even in the crowded courtyard, he still looked elegant: "Manman, I'm going back first."
Jin Man was silent for quite a long time this time. He was not a mean person. Most of the time, he would let things go when he couldn't figure them out and was unwilling to think about them any further.
But what happened tonight was beyond his expectations.
Divorce is nothing to Lu Yanlin.
He never cries or feels sad, and is always decent and well-behaved, as if he is the only one who breaks down. He flees from one city to another. At first, he couldn't eat or sleep well, and meeting someone was nothing to him.
Jin Man didn't know whether to admire him or feel unfair for himself.
He tried to remain calm and said, "Lu Yanlin, we are divorced. Let's not meet again."
Lu Yanlin looked at him quietly. His facial features hadn't changed much from before; he was dignified, calm, and handsome. Even in the small courtyard, he was as calm and composed as he was in the Lu Mansion. "Even if we're not partners, we've been together for five years and are still friends."
Jin Man gritted his teeth: "We can't be friends."
His eyes were a little red, and he felt funny and pitiful. He had loved someone for five years, and when they divorced, he suddenly wanted to be friends with him.
Lu Yanlin stopped talking because his eyes were red. He reached into his pocket and said, "Manman, Liuhe Town is too small and too poor. It lacks good resources and medical care, and it's not safe. Maybe in a few decades, there will be even fewer people living here. You shouldn't be here. Even if you leave the Lu family, you should... choose a better place and better people."
Jin Man was so angry that he was shaking: "What does it have to do with you where I choose to live or who I choose to live with?"
He pointed at the door and said coldly: "Get out."
Lu Yanlin's face was indifferent, and he clenched his fists slightly. He finished his words: "If you like this kind of life, I can provide a better environment than here."
Jin Man said: "So?"
Lu Yanlin was stunned. Jin Man's expression was bleak, sad and heartbroken. He stared blankly at the ground, the kind of expression that looked like someone who had nothing to say and was being bullied to the point of trembling slightly. "I don't want it."
Liuhe Town is his home, this is his house, no matter how far he goes, he will always remember it.
He looked at the fence covered with bean pods, the small chicken coop he had built, the transparent glass bottles, and the roses that had not been planted. In the eyes of others, these were not good enough, just some old things and garbage, but it didn't matter, as long as he liked them, it was enough.
He didn't understand this truth in the past, so he lived a very painful life, but now he has gained the courage.
He looked at Lu Yanlin, tears welling up in his eyes, but he didn't let them fall: "As long as I like it, that's all."
When you are alive, you don't have to expect everything to be perfect.
Lu Yanlin raised his eyes.
The wind chimes were tinkling, the clear water in the glass bottle reflected the red roses, and the light and shadow fell on Alpha's face. The ordinary person became extraordinarily beautiful at that moment.
…
No gifts were left behind, and the visitors in the yard left in silence.
Jin Man slept very late that night. He thought about a lot of things, but when he woke up he didn't remember anything.
The morning light filtered through the window. He felt exhausted and his ankle ached slightly. He stretched his body while slowly putting on his clothes, then stood up and opened the door.
Golden sunlight broke through the door and spread all over the yard. A few fluffy little ducks were catching insects in the grass. When they saw the door open, they lined up in fear and ran away.
The overturned trough in the yard had been repaired at some point. The mountain spring water filled the stone trough, and a large stone was placed underneath. It was made with rough workmanship, but it was so strong that it could not be knocked over even if kicked.
"elder brother?"
Jin Man looked around and saw that the lilac tree had been tied up again and a wide strip of cloth was tied around its waist. It was not dead.
Jin Man's depressed mood suddenly dissipated a lot when he saw the tidy yard.
He skipped to the sink and found a pair of old camouflage gloves lying there. They belonged to Zhou Yu.
He was just in a daze when a dirty child ran out from behind the fence holding a puppy. His face was dirty and he was holding two straw duck eggs. When he saw the door open, he stopped in his tracks, but lost his balance and fell flat on his face.
The puppy saw Jin Man and ran back, barking, its tail wagging like a propeller. Jin Man bent down, picked up the warm, round puppy, and rubbed it hard.
The puppy whined and licked his fingers with its tongue.
The little child quickly got up. He had a round head, dark skin and big eyes. He looked thin and small, but he was full of energy. When he saw that the duck egg he had worked so hard to find was broken, he quickly held it in his little hands.
But the yolk was still leaking out, and he became so anxious that his face turned pale.
"Help!"
