Chapter 479 The First Period
Knowing that Brother Ji was awake, He Rui, who had been up all night, simply snuggled into his arms, closed his eyes, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
He originally thought that in his current mental state, he would have difficulty falling asleep.
He was as energetic as if he had drunk two liters of strong tea and coffee, and was extremely awake.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I closed my eyes, before I had time to fall asleep, my consciousness quickly became blurred.
He Rui had a nightmare.
When he was pinched awake by Brother Ji, he could no longer remember the content of the dream, only a few fragments remained: in the dream, the other person looked at him as if he was looking at a stranger, cold and distant.
He tried to reason with the other party in a wronged manner, saying, "If you're like this, I won't date you anymore." Unexpectedly, what he got in return was a reply of "Get lost."
He Rui felt a comfortable massage on the back of his neck. He opened his eyes drowsily, his nose felt sore, and the sad emotions in his dream spread into reality like a shadow.
"What's wrong?" The person next to him leaned in and asked softly, his tone as if he was coaxing a child.
"......" He Rui felt as if his brother Ji could sense his emotions. He could tell that he was in a bad mood even when he was sleeping or dreaming.
He let out a long sigh, wanting to let out all the frustration in his heart. With his eyes open, he felt a wave of anger and grievance, but grievance ultimately prevailed. "I'm so pissed off! I dreamed you didn't recognize me and were even mean to me."
Ji Changqing raised his hand and gently rubbed the top of his head. He lowered his eyes and thought for a moment. He did not answer him, but said softly: "Actually, I have something I am worried about, and I don't know how to solve it. Can you give me some advice?"
He Rui nodded blankly, a little curious, "You say."
Ji Changqing looked intently into He Rui's eyes. "Before I met you, I always thought I was an emotionally indifferent person. I rarely have a lasting interest in anything, and even if I like something, my enthusiasm will quickly fade.
I guess... I'm just a heartless person at heart."
He paused, frowning slightly. "So, I'm afraid that after I get you, my feelings for you will fade as others say, once the novelty wears off..."
One day in the future, because my feelings have faded, I will become mean to you, no longer love you, and even hurt you unknowingly.
This possibility makes me very uneasy.”
"You said...what should I do to ensure that I will never forget this love?
Or, can we set up a constraint - if my future self dares to betray you, that 'me' can be punished.
Or…” His voice became softer, “Should I just abandon my domain and become completely dependent on you?”
He Rui couldn't help but laugh after hearing this, and summed up the other person with an idiom, "Hahaha, worrying about nothing! Are you serious? Thinking that far ahead? Are you afraid that you'll become a scumbag and dump me?"
He couldn't stop laughing. "You don't even want your domain anymore? That's too much. You should at least leave yourself some security, just in case I'm the scumbag. If you cut off your escape route, won't that mean I can just bully you and play with you?"
He Rui finally recovered from his laughter. Seeing that the other party didn't respond but just looked at him gently, he comforted her with a slight smile on his face, "You're worrying too much. I believe in you. You definitely won't do that. And I can sense your seriousness. Thank you for taking the fact that you like me so seriously."
He reached out and poked Brother Ji’s chest, “You should read more books on psychology.
Are you constantly worrying about this and that? Are you resisting enjoying the present moment because of your fear of the unknown outcome? Then just don't talk to me. You can't throw the baby out with the bathwater just because you have concerns.
You have to have confidence in yourself and in me! Since you have chosen to be with me, there is no option of 'breaking up'.
He Rui stretched out his fist from under the quilt and shook it. "And you know my temper, I have a lot of shortcomings. You can tolerate it now while we're in love, but when the filter is broken in the future, if you dare to dislike me..."
Before he could finish his words, his fist was gently wrapped by a warm palm.
He Rui felt sweet in his heart, and he especially liked Brother Ji's clingy and persistent attitude.
He exerted a little force on his hands, spread out his five fingers, squeezed them between the other person's fingers, and intertwined his fingers with that hand.
He Rui shifted his gaze from his hand to Brother Ji's face and chuckled, "Actually, I understand what you mean. You're worried that after this initial period of passionate love is over, your feelings for me will fade, right? Or maybe you'll just stop liking me?"
He Rui's eyes sparkled, "I have a way to solve this problem.
I have a childhood friend who lives in the same compound. He is a very love-sick but strong-willed person.
He has a hot temper, just like his father. When he was a child, he was often tied to a tree and beaten with a belt by his uncle because he was disobedient.
He Rui recalled and continued, "He hated the fact that he became unlike himself after falling in love.
He didn't want to be humble and fawning, be led by his emotions, and mindlessly cater to and lick a hopeless lover.
So he invented a ruthless trick.
Whenever he feels that he is too obsessed, he will cut off all contact with the person he likes.
When he missed the other person too much, he would go downstairs of the other person's building and take a look from afar like a pervert, and then go home and cry and drink to drown his sorrows.
After a month of being isolated from the person he loves, he can finally clear his mind and think clearly, whether he wants to continue or let go. Without that blinding feeling of being high, he can now think rationally again.
He Rui finished speaking, and concluded in a relaxed manner, "So Brother Ji, if you are really worried, we can actually try to separate for a while.
Come back to me in a month or even two or three months and see how you feel about me then.
Most likely, that's when you'll experience your true feelings, as you're worried about 'after the novelty wears off'. If you don't like it, you can talk it out as soon as possible..." At least we can still be brothers.
Before he could finish his words, he was suddenly pulled into Ji Changqing's arms. Ji Changqing's arms were like iron hoops, tightly wrapped around him, so strong that he could hardly breathe.
He Rui was caught off guard by the embrace, his nose instantly filled with the familiar scent of the other person. He subconsciously tried to look up, but was pressed back, burying his head deeper into the warm shoulder socket.
"Brother Ji?" His muffled voice came from his shoulder, with a hint of confusion and cautious tentativeness. Feeling the arms around him tighten a little, He Rui realized that his brother was trembling.
This realization made his heart tremble, and the hand that originally wanted to push away slowly dropped, and finally gently rested on the other person's back.
