Chapter 36 Don't Be Afraid He relaxed his body in a trance and leaned in obediently...

Fierce red bloodshot slowly climbed up Chi Yuze's eyeballs. He stared at Xiao Zhier like a ferocious beast ready to devour someone. His voice was hoarse and full of cruelty: "Xiao Zhier, don't even think about leaving me!"

Xiao Zhier was pressed down on the bench by him, and his back was hurt by the armrest of the bench.

His brows were furrowed, and his stomach seemed to join in the fun, churning as well. Xiao Zhier's arm hurt so much that he clenched his teeth, felt dizzy, and there was a faint buzzing in his ears.

In the dim light, Xiao Zhier seemed to hear someone's voice coming from a distance, and that person seemed to be calling him.

"Xiao Zhier!"

Xiao Zhier bit his tongue fiercely, then he quickly bent his knees and slammed into Chi Yuze with his knees: "Are you crazy?"

"Hmm..." Chi Yuze took Xiao Zhi'er's blow head-on. He groaned and pinched Xiao Zhi'er's wrist with even more force. "Brother Xiao is so ruthless. He really doesn't care about our relationship for so many years."

Xiao Zhier had a cold face. He turned his wrist, clenched his fingers into a fist and slammed forward!

Chi Yuze was caught off guard and was almost hit in the face by Xiao Zhier's punch. He hurriedly straightened up and leaned back, and the fingers that were holding Xiao Zhier's arm couldn't help but loosen.

The next second, Xiao Zhier stood up in an instant like a loach, lowering his head and hitting his head heavily on Chi Yuze's chest. Then he raised his hand, grabbed Chi Yuze's collar and threw him to the side, using the force to turn over.

"Brother Xiao!"

The chaotic footsteps stopped behind him. Xiao Zhier subconsciously turned around and wanted to attack, but the moment he turned around, he fell into a warm embrace.

Xu Ze's voice came from his ear: "Brother Xiao! Are you okay? I was scared to death..."

Xiao Zhier's breathing was slightly choked. He was stunned for a few seconds, and then his body relaxed in a trance. He leaned obediently in Xu Ze's arms. After hesitating for a moment, he raised his hand and slowly put it around Xu Ze's shoulders, patting his back soothingly.

There was a hint of smile in his voice out of habit: "I'm fine, don't be afraid."

Xu Ze was breathing heavily. He hugged Xiao Zhier tightly for a while, until he felt his hands stopped shaking, then he slowly released his arms.

Although Xiao Zhier had already said that he was fine, Xu Ze still looked him up and down for a long time. Only after confirming that there were no obvious external injuries or bloodstains on Xiao Zhier's body did he breathe a sigh of relief.

"Ahem... Brother Xiao, you're really ruthless..."

Chi Yuze coughed twice. He looked at Xiao Zhier and forced a smile, but there was a ruthless murderous intent in his eyes when he looked at Xu Ze.

He had just been hit in the face by Xiao Zhi'er's head and his eyes went dark. During those tens of seconds, Chi Yuze couldn't even breathe. He could only lie on the ground in a mess for a few minutes before the depression in his throat slowly dissipated.

Hearing Chi Yuze's voice, Xu Ze's eyes turned cold. He turned around and punched Chi Yuze in the face. Chi Yuze was already seeing stars because of Xiao Zhier's collision. Xu Ze's punch hit the upper door and Chi Yuze was knocked to the ground.

Xu Ze's eyes were full of anger. He took a few deep breaths and barely suppressed the urge to punch Chi Yuze again: "What did you want to do just now? Force him!"

Chi Yuze turned over and got up, raised his hand and rubbed the corner of his mouth with the back of his relatively clean hand, wiping away the blood that overflowed from the cracked lip corner.

He looked at Xu Ze and grinned, his teeth stained with Chi Yuze's own blood, a dark red color.

"Why are you angry? What does the matter between us have to do with you?"

Chi Yuze spoke slowly. He pulled the corners of his lips slightly and looked at Xu Ze with provocation in his eyes: "If I hadn't gone abroad, how would you have had the chance to appear by his side? In the final analysis, you are just a despicable intruder."

Xu Ze's face changed.

He had to admit that Chi Yuze's words did touch upon the hidden pain in his heart.

Back then, Xiao Zhier and Chi Yuze were almost inseparable. Every time Xu Ze saw Xiao Zhier, Chi Yuze would always appear beside Xiao Zhier. He was hostile to everyone who tried to get close to Xiao Zhier, but pretended to be sunny and cheerful in front of Xiao Zhier.

It’s not that Xu Ze didn’t want to try to get closer to Xiao Zhier, but he still remembers the look in Chi Yuze’s eyes at that time.

It was a gloomy rainy day, with continuous drizzle that stretched from sky to ground like an endless curtain. When Xu Ze passed by the library, he saw Xiao Zhier's figure under the eaves of the library.

At that time, Xiao Zhier was a little thinner than he is now. Perhaps it was because he grew up late, Xiao Zhier was almost pathologically thin. When the wind blew, the white shirt on the young man's body fluttered in the wind. With his calm and slightly cold expression, he looked ethereal and seemed to be able to escape from this world at any time.

At this moment, Xiao Zhier seemed to realize that someone was looking at him, and he glanced over from a distance.

Xiao Zhier stood on the steps of the library. The dozen or so steps seemed to divide two worlds. His eyes dropped, and Xu Ze stood there in a daze.

At that moment, he seemed like a child who had kneeled before the statue many times and finally received the gaze of mercy from the immortal.

But the next moment, someone passed by Xu Ze. Xu Ze subconsciously looked over and met a pair of cold eyes.

He knew this person, Chi Yuze, who was Xiao Zhier's inseparable friend.

But the look given by Chi Yuze as he passed by Xu Ze was so cold, as if there was an iceberg living in the bottom of his eyes. It seemed as if he was warning Xu Ze not to come forward.

Xu Ze was smart since he was young. He started school early and skipped grades. He was only sixteen years old at that time, and Chi Yuze scare him without much effort.

The young man took a few steps back and watched Chi Yuze quickly step up the stairs and hand the other umbrella in his hand to Xiao Zhier.

Xiao Zhier looked at Chi Yuze and smiled. His smile was very shallow, but it was like the traces left by a cat on the thick snow. It was very conspicuous and beautiful.

The two of them walked down the stairs one after the other. When passing by Xu Ze, Xiao Zhier just glanced at him indifferently, but Chi Yuze stopped and stared at Xu Ze for a few seconds, then turned around and chased after Xiao Zhier.

Perhaps the psychological trauma left at that time was too heavy. Until now, whenever Xu Ze saw Chi Yuze again, he would still feel a strong sense of disgust from the bottom of his bones.

As to whether this feeling of disgust was mixed with some fear left over from his adolescence, Xu Ze himself was not sure.

“Bang!”

The crisp sound of slapping was heard, pulling Xu Ze back to reality from his thoughts.

Xiao Zhier's fingers trembled slightly. He slapped him with all his strength. The usually calm man was trembling with anger, and his eyes were flushed. "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Chi Yuze's head was tilted by Xiao Zhi'er's hit. He raised his hand and pressed the back of his fingers on his cheek. The flesh under his fingers felt hot and quickly became red and swollen.

He tilted his head to look, and in his vision, which was slightly blurred due to the natural tears that quickly flowed out after being beaten, the figure of Xiao Zhier in front of him was hazy, just like in his dream.

Chi Yuze blinked hard.

The Xiao Zhier standing in front of him only had his clothes slightly messy, and he still looked like the young man in his memory, who was always clean and tidy and would look at him with a warm smile.

But his whole person was cold, an extremely sharp kind of coldness that Chi Yuze had never seen in Xiao Zhier before.

It's like a long sword that has been unsheathed. Only until the moment the blade falls can you truly feel how sharp the blade is.

Chi Yuze narrowed his eyes, and his voice was slightly cold: "You are defending him, and you actually hit me for him?"

Xiao Zhier's eyebrows were cold, and he looked at Chi Yuze as if he was looking at an indifferent person: "Chi Yuze, you can actually say such words, it really brings shame to the Chi family."

He stared at Chi Yuze and called Chi Yuze's father in front of him.

Xiao Zhier disdained to add fuel to the fire. He told the whole story of what happened tonight. Under Chi Yuze's incredulous gaze, Xiao Zhier's brows were grim and even his voice was chilling to the bone.

"I am very grateful to Uncle Chi for taking care of me. I am sorry to trouble you with this matter. I also ask you to restrain Chi Yuze. I don't want to go through this kind of thing again."

Xiao Zhier's eyebrows were indifferent, the warm lights scattered from the roadside, and his long eyelashes cast a hazy shadow on his face. His eyes sank into the shadow, making it impossible for Chi Yuze to see clearly.

His voice was also calm. Chi Yuze felt a chill in his heart. His face turned pale. He took two steps forward and tried to grab Xiao Zhier's shoulders: "Brother Xiao, you——"

As soon as Chi Yuze's words came out, Xiao Zhier raised his hand and blocked his arm without hesitation.

He showed no mercy, and used his fingers and palms to form a knife to slash Chi Yuze's wrist. Xiao Zhier watched coldly as Chi Yuze covered his arm and retreated in embarrassment. He said coldly: "I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore. You'd better be sensible and stop bothering me."

Xiao Zhier has known Chi Yu Ze for many years, and he knows Chi Yu Ze too well. This man's obstinacy and stubbornness far exceed those of ordinary people. If you give him a little bit of good face, Chi Yu Ze will become even more aggressive.

Therefore, Xiao Zhier would not leave him any hope.

After saying this, without giving Chi Yuze any extra glances, Xiao Zhier turned to look at Xu Ze, his voice suddenly lowered a lot: "I don't feel well..."

Xiao Zhier knew very well that he was very good at disguising himself, and he would not hesitate to show weakness as long as he could achieve his goal. However, this simple showing of weakness without any request was more like a sudden act of coquetry.

Xu Ze's heart softened immediately, as if it had melted into a pool of water. He immediately forgot about Chi Yuze and habitually raised his hand to hold Xiao Zhier's waist from behind: "Can I carry you back?"

Xu Ze originally wanted to carry him back, but considering Xiao Zhier's thin skin, Xu considerately changed his posture.

Xiao Zhier was about to speak when he heard soft piano sounds from the side, causing him to pause slightly.

He could tell that this was the song he had played at the school party five years ago. He had not signed up for the program, but the classmate who was supposed to perform had a small accident before the party, so Xiao Zhier went on stage to save the situation.

Xiao Zhier's playing habits are different. He will have a small pause in the last bar before the climax, just like the one played in Chi Yuze's ringtone.

Xiao Zhier knew that this should be a call from Chi Yuze's father.

He lowered his eyes slightly, with a mocking smile on the corner of his lips.

It doesn’t matter. Chi Yuze will never have the chance to bother him again anyway.
