Chapter 57 Entertainment World 1 He is very angry
"why are you laughing?!"
Seeing Chu Sicheng only curled his lips and said nothing, Lu Yuming could not help but frown. Seeing that the spikes on his body were about to stand up again,
"You think I'm kidding?"
Chu Sicheng shook his head: "No."
"Do you think I'm just following the internet trend?"
Nowadays, there are indeed many underage children who are dazzled by the colorful world of the Internet and always want to learn something to show their uniqueness.
But Chu Sicheng still shook his head, "No."
"So you think I'm rebellious and just arguing with my mom?"
Chu Sicheng blinked, "How could you think of me like that?"
"I'm only five or six years older than you. I'm not old enough to judge you from the perspective of an elder, am I?"
So, neither.
Lu Yuming's brows furrowed even tighter.
"Then what are you laughing at?"
"I'm laughing..."
As Chu Sicheng spoke, he couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth.
The young man, whose black hair covered most of his face, originally had a very gloomy temperament. However, not only was his red lips too bright, but his smile was too deep, which diluted the dead air and made him look dazzling.
"Laughing at fate." He slowly completed the second half of the sentence.
"fate?"
Lu Yuming, who had just become an adult a month ago, didn't understand what Chu Sicheng was saying. He just felt that this adopted brother in front of him seemed a little weird.
He didn't really like getting along with people like that.
But he had nowhere else to go right now.
So, after patiently waiting for Chu Sicheng to finish laughing, he held his schoolbag and asked:
"Where do I sleep?"
"Here." Chu Sicheng patted the sofa under his hand.
“…”
Lu Yuming glanced at the sofa that was almost drowned in all kinds of short-sleeved jackets, without saying a word. But when he looked at Chu Sicheng again, his eyes became much more resentful.
Of course, Chu Sicheng didn’t really let Lu Yuming sleep on the sofa. He just wanted to tease the young man because of his energetic look.
Seeing that the other party was feeling aggrieved but didn't say anything, he didn't show any sign of mercy, but instead said something more extreme:
"It's mainly because it's not a coincidence. I had some problems at work recently and can only stay at home, so I definitely can't give you the master bedroom."
...Then there is no second bedroom?
Lu Yuming really wanted to ask, but this was not his home, so after going around in circles, Lu Yuming swallowed the words back into his stomach.
Forget it, sleeping on the sofa is better than sleeping on the street.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuming slowly took off the schoolbag from his shoulder and placed it on the edge of the sofa, which was the only clean area on the sofa that was not occupied by Chu Sicheng's clothes.
"Then these clothes..." Lu Yuming looked at the sofa full of clothes and hesitated.
"Do you want me to put them away for you?"
He actually didn't really want to touch these clothes that he didn't know whether they had been washed or not. After all, although he and Jiang Nian'an were brothers, to be honest, they had only met once when Jiang's father and Lu's mother got married.
Jiang Nian'an likes to travel around during the winter and summer vacations. He usually goes home on Saturdays and Sundays, and the time he chooses happens to be when Lu Yuming needs to go to class.
So much so that even though their parents have been married for more than two years, the brothers are still emotionally strangers.
Originally, after quarreling with Lu's mother today, Lu Yuming wanted to go to a friend's house to spend the day, but before leaving, Jiang's father stopped him and asked him to hide at Jiang Nian'an's place.
Jiang Nian'an didn't like going home during college, and after graduation he was often not seen because of work.
The two-bedroom apartment that Jiang's father bought for him in the city center is basically deserted. After Lu Yuming goes there, he can help look after the house. When Lu's mother calms down, she can go over and take a look.
Besides, the conflict between mother and son cannot be resolved in a short time, and it is not convenient to let Lu Yuming live in a friend's house all the time.
Regarding his stepfather's arrangement, Lu Yuming wanted to refuse at first, but he just agreed on the surface. When he went downstairs to take a taxi, he filled in the address of his friend's house.
But the moment he got on the bus, for some unknown reason, he changed his destination.
Then he came to Jiang Nian'an and knocked on the door even though he knew there was a 99% chance that no one was inside.
Then, we got a response with a probability of one percent.
Neither side was clearly prepared.
One's reaction was half a beat slower than usual, while the other's was a hundred times sharper than usual.
Eyelashes trembled slightly, Lu Yuming pursed his lips,
"Should these go in the washing machine, or should they be folded and put away?"
His attitude just now was certainly not polite.
Lu Yuming thought that in order for both parties to live in peace in the days to come, he still needed to show some kindness to the man appropriately.
Unexpectedly, the man next to him, who he had secretly shown goodwill to, laughed out loud after hearing what Lu Yuming said.
"Are you really going to sleep here?"
“…”
Lu Yuming felt that his cheap brother was very strange.
"Didn't you tell me to sleep here?"
"It was just a joke,"
Chu Sicheng cleared his throat, reached out and picked up Lu Yuming's schoolbag on the sofa, and then said to him:
"Come on, I'll take you to the second bedroom."
After a long time, he found out that the two doors facing each other were bedrooms, not a bedroom and a study as Lu Yuming had imagined.
It's a pity that he still silently helps the man find excuses.
Looking at the young man's cheerful back, Lu Yuming felt inexplicably itchy.
"The sheets and pillowcases are in the closet and may have a musty smell. You can wash them in the laundry room and then dry them before using them."
Chu Sicheng put the schoolbag on the bed and turned to look at Lu Yuming.
"Can you ride a bike?"
"Um?"
Lu Yuming, who was looking at the second bedroom environment, came back to his senses after hearing this and said:
"meeting."
It is summer vacation now, so Lu Yuming has no worries about going to school, but he always has to go out and do something.
After Chu Sicheng got the answer, he went out directly. A minute later, he came back with two sets of keys.
"This bunch is for bicycles, and this bunch is for electric bikes. They're both parked in parking space No. 2 on the first floor below ground level. You can use them when you go out."
"Oh...thank you." Lu Yuming thanked him awkwardly.
Chu Sicheng accepted it calmly, "You're welcome."
"I'm ordering takeout now, what do you want to eat?"
"Anything is fine. I'm not picky."
As Lu Yuming spoke, he unconsciously looked around the bright room, which was completely opposite to the depressing living room.
The overall decoration design is in warm colors, and the positive and sunny life scenery photos that can be seen everywhere on the walls show that its owner is definitely not a dark, lifeless otaku.
but……
Lu Yuming's gaze returned to Chu Sicheng again. Looking at his half-long and messy hair, and the living room that exuded decadence everywhere, a sentence the other party had just said unconsciously echoed in his mind.
“I’ve had some problems at work lately…”
So, what kind of problem could cause a person who was originally full of hope for life to fall to such a state?
Lu Yuming, who was still protected on campus, couldn't figure it out and felt that this was not something he should care about.
He and Jiang Nian'an were not familiar enough to know each other's private affairs.
But this sense of politeness was only felt by Lu Yuming when the takeaway arrived, and the man sitting opposite him couldn't help but disappear for a moment while drinking his ice beer.
"you……"
Lu Yuming looked at the hamburgers and fried chicken on his left, then at the scrambled eggs with tomatoes and other home-cooked dishes on his right, and finally his eyes fell on the cheese cake in front of him.
"You don't want to eat?"
"No."
Chu Sicheng said, "I'm not hungry. You can eat whatever you like. I think this cake has received a lot of positive reviews. You can try it when you're full."
The man said, taking another sip of the cold beer in his hand.
He didn't even have a pair of chopsticks at hand, so Lu Yuming only needed to take a glance to know that the food in front of him, which almost filled the table, was ordered by the man for him.
Since I didn't know what he liked to eat, I ordered a little of everything.
It’s like raising a child that you finally meet again after many years of separation.
Perhaps it was because the gesture was too heartwarming, or perhaps it was because the egg tart in his hand was too sweet.
Lu Yuming looked up and saw the man half-supporting his face, tilting his head and playing with the wine bottle on the table. He tried to hold it back, but couldn't.
"How's your...work?"
Lu Yuming didn’t know what the man did. He only vaguely heard Jiang’s father mention it a few times, saying that he often traveled for work.
To be more specific, it is something that even Jiang's father doesn't know.
This was probably because Jiang Nian'an felt that he had not yet made any achievements in his career, so he was embarrassed to mention it to his family.
Chu Sicheng had nothing to be embarrassed about, and after Lu Yuming asked, he said directly:
"Nothing, just someone else snatched my role away, and now I'm being cyberbullied, so it's hard for me to take on new work."
"ha?"
Lu Yuming's brain was a little stunned by Chu Sicheng's calm words.
"Cyberbullying? What kind of job do you do?"
"An 18th-tier actor."
Chu Sicheng supported his head and smiled:
"Do you need me to sign for you?"
Even at this time, he was still in the mood to joke, and even had the patience to accept the fact that he was covered in thorns.
For some reason, Lu Yuming suddenly felt speechless and a little regretful.
But Chu Sicheng didn't think it was a big deal.
He never took the abuse from strangers to heart, and as for the role that was taken away by Bug, there was nothing to be obsessed with, since he didn't like acting that much anyway.
The only possible trouble is that as his role was snatched away, some ignorant people also came along.
Chu Sicheng didn't know whether these people had anything to do with Bug, but he finally decided to put all the blame on Bug.
because……
“Ding Dong!”
As the text message alert sounded on the phone, the screen of the phone that the man had casually placed on the dining table also lit up.
On the white standby screen, a disgusting line of words appeared.
[How about it? Are you going to give in and have sex with me?]
Chu Sicheng didn't say anything.
However, Lu Yuming, who was sitting opposite him, felt an uncontrollable surge of anger in his heart after seeing the content of the text message.
