Chapter 144 Can You Hug Me?

After a sleepless night, Lin Du made up his mind to make things clear to Chen Wei this time. Stay away from him, and at least he will be safe.

"Did you sleep well?" Chen Wei came over and rubbed Lin Du's head naturally. "Why do you look unwell? Are you not used to it?"

Lin Du stepped back slightly, his heart made up, and he no longer hesitated: "Chen Wei, I can't live with you. You are very good, but my heart can no longer accommodate anyone else. I also have no intention of going on with anyone, so... I'm sorry."

Chen Wei's face changed, and he was a little flustered: "What happened? Wasn't he fine yesterday?"

Lin Du rubbed his hands and lowered his head guiltily: "I thought about it all night, it's really not appropriate to live in your place, it will make me uncomfortable."

"Lin Du, you will definitely not be used to the new environment, so take it slow." Chen Wei advised. He selfishly did not want Lin Du to leave.

He really likes Lin Du and wants to continue walking with him.

Lin Du clenched his fists and bravely faced Chen Wei's fiery gaze: "Chen Wei, I am not worthy of sympathy. You can see that I am actually quite ungrateful, so, let me go..."

Chen Wei frowned and held Lin Du's shoulders helplessly: "Lin Du, what happened? Why did everything change overnight? We clearly agreed on this yesterday."

"No, I really didn't know how to reject you yesterday, but after calming down, I thought a lot and realized that I didn't want to deceive you. I really only have friendship for you, not love."

Lin Du quickly lowered his head after saying this: "Chen Wei, let me go, just consider it as me begging you..."

Chen Wei lowered his eyes in hurt. He raised the corners of his mouth bitterly: "So, even if Gu Yanchi hurts you no matter how much, you still can't let him go in your heart, right?"

Lin Du was startled, biting his lip and weakly pinching his fingers: "I..."

"Lin Du, why? He is hurting you, why do you still keep thinking about him?" Chen Wei asked in confusion.

Lin Du pursed his lips bitterly. His body seemed to have lost its support and he leaned against the wall weakly: "I'm sorry..."

Chen Wei clenched his fist unwillingly, and raised the corners of his mouth in self-mockery: "What's there to be sorry about? There is no right or wrong in love. I respect your choice, but please don't deprive me of the right to pursue you."

"I believe that one day I can make you accept me."

Lin Du let out a deep breath, but it did not relieve the pain in his chest, only leaving him feeling depressed.

He dragged his tired body, and every step seemed so weak, as if he would fall down at any time.

"Lin Du, you will continue to come to work, right?" Chen Wei looked at Lin Du's back and asked with heartache.

Lin Du stopped, turned around, and tried to force a smile: "Yes."

"I'll take you there." Chen Wei wanted to take Lin Du's luggage, but was rejected by Lin Du.

"No, I can do it myself." Lin Duchong smiled foolishly at Chen Wei, "It's still early, you can take a rest."

Carrying his luggage, Lin Du walked out of Chen Wei's house.

Gu Yinchi, who had been staring at the gate of Chen Wei's community with a frown on his face, instantly perked up when he saw Lin Du.

He got out of the car, his body was limp, but his whole body was still hot. "Lin..." His fever was still high, and his throat was hoarse. Gu Xinchi tried hard to clear his throat and reached out to take Lin Du's luggage. "Lin Du."

Lin Du lowered his eyes and walked past Gu Xinchi, not wanting to even glance at him.

Gu Xinchi rubbed his swollen and painful temples and followed Lin Du.

Lin Du was sitting at the bus stop with his luggage. He lowered his head and played with his hands, his thoughts already in a mess.

Gu Xinchi didn't dare to get too close, he leaned against the billboard on the platform, his eyes almost closed.

But he stubbornly kept his eyes fixed on Lin Du, fearing that he would disappear in front of him.

The bus arrived, Lin Du got on with his luggage, inserted a coin, and sat in a window seat.

I squeezed in despite of my boredom, but I had no money to put in the coins.

The driver looked at Gu Yanchi with an unhappy expression and knocked on the coin slot: "Insert money."

Gu Jinchi touched his pocket with an innocent look on his face and looked at Lin Du with grievance.

Lin Du put down his bag, squeezed past Gu Nichi, threw a coin and sat back in his seat.

The corners of Gu Nichi's mouth curled up slightly, and his bloodshot eyes narrowed.

Lin Du rested his forehead against the window, looking at the passing scenery outside with an expressionless face.

Gu Nichi held the handle and stood beside Lin Du, looking at him greedily.

The marks on his neck were still there, where he had left them.

Lindu is really the type that is very pleasing to the eye. This small one is cute no matter how you look at it.

Gu's doting eyes were about to overflow, his fingertips twitched, and he really wanted to hug him.

But he couldn't, he hated himself...

When they arrived at the station, Lin Du got off the bus with his bag.

Gu Nishi's eyelids felt heavy and he continued to follow him powerlessly.

Lin Du stopped and turned slowly: "How long are you going to follow me?"

Gu Nichi hung his head in grievance, not wanting to look at Lin Du's icy eyes.

During working hours, there were people coming and going on the road. Lin Du didn't want to attract attention, so he turned around and continued walking home.

Gu Yanchi followed closely behind, his body fever making him feel like he was walking under the scorching sun. His mouth was dry, his head ached, and it was as if a fire was burning inside him.

He leaned against a tree to slow down, then watched Lin Du walk away with disdainful eyes.

Dragging his heavy steps, Gu Yanshi quickened his pace to catch up with Lin Du.

Lin Du looked at the unrecognizable door of the rental house and sighed, without feeling too much emotion.

Gu Niechi rushed over and explained in a panic: "I'll send someone to fix it right away."

Lin Du pushed the door open and walked in. Gu Nichi stood by the door, not daring to go in, yet reluctant to leave.

Lin Du put down his luggage and looked up at Gu Xinchi who was breathing heavily: "Are you going to follow me like this forever?"

"Gu Nichi, you have so many tricks up your sleeve. I am almost convinced by you."

Facing Lin Du's sarcasm, Gu Xinchi chose to endure it silently.

He leaned against the door, his eyelids felt heavy and all the muscles in his body ached.

His lips were so dry and cracked that they were about to tear. He had difficulty swallowing and his throat was in severe pain.

Lin Du turned around, closed his eyes and calmed down for a while.

He poured a glass of water and handed it to Gu Yanchi: "Drink the water and go back. I still have to go to work and don't have time to watch your performance."

Gu Nichi tilted his head slightly and looked at Lin Du with a wronged look on his face, his eyes burning badly with tears.

He stubbornly refused to take the water from Lin Du's hand, and his mouth corners that wanted to open finally twitched weakly.

Lin Du put down the cup and walked past Gu Yanchi. He couldn't stay any longer, or he would waver.

He admitted that Gu Jinchi's performance was so good that he was always touched without noticing.

This was a dangerous signal, he knew it very well.

Gu Yanchi grabbed Lin Du's wrist and lowered his head aggrievedly: "Lin Du, I'm really sick, can you hug me?"

“Just for a moment?” Gu Nichi couldn’t hold back the tears in his eyes. He never thought he would be so fond of crying.

He even looked down on himself a little, but his heart was so painful that he couldn't help it.
