☆、Ninety Su Zelin's past
"Xiao Nan! Who else knows Zhou Yuming besides you?" Su Zelin immediately called Nan Jinnian.
Hearing Zhou Yuming, Nan Jinnian was stunned for a moment, then asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong?"
Su Qiqiao, who was standing by, noticed that Nan Jinnian's expression had suddenly turned serious, and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
"Someone wants to see me, under the name of Zhou Yuming." Su Zelin's voice became inexplicably hoarse. He had imagined it countless times! One day, that person would stand in front of him, still smiling, and scold him for being stupid and foolish, for actually believing that he was dead.
But day after day, year after year, when he finally thought he was about to forget this name, this name once again appeared in his ears.
"At that time, no one knew about you except me..." Nan Jinnian had just gone abroad not long ago. In order to avoid the excessive care of his father and mother, he did not accept the villa arranged by his parents for him, but found a house to share.
The people I shared the apartment with at that time were Su Zelin and...his boyfriend Zhou Yuming.
Coincidentally, Zhou Yuming was his direct senior two years in the same year and they studied under the same professor.
But not long after, Vic Chou suddenly returned to China, and on the way back... his plane crashed and sank into the sea.
This incident was a heavy blow to Su Zelin at the time!
He watched a man become increasingly addicted to alcohol because of another man, their shared apartment filled with the smell of alcohol, not just bottles. One day, Su Zhe brought Su Zelin back to China. A year later, Su Zelin returned to school abroad to complete his studies, and then continued his studies abroad for graduate and doctoral degrees. He watched as he saw it all, like a madman, draining himself of all his energy.
And this is why Su Zelin still has no girlfriend or any rumors about him having any relationship with women.
Arriving at the bar, Su Zelin walked in a little nervously and found an empty seat to sit down. However, just as he sat down, a man dressed very flamboyantly came over and said, "Hey, you're quite handsome, young man."
The man was wearing a leather jacket and leather pants, his hair was dyed a striking purple, and he had strangely shaped earrings on his ears.
Su Zelin didn't want to pay too much attention to him, and said in a deep voice: "Go away."
"What are you doing? I just want to chat with you!" The man started to make moves.
At this moment, a voice rang out from his ear: "Maomao, stop messing around, this is my guest."
The man named Maomao pouted unhappily when he saw the person coming: "Okay." Then he waved his hand and left.
Su Zelin looked at the man and frowned, "It's you?"
Zhou Wei showed a kind smile: "Are you surprised?"
This bar was handed over to him by the previous owner. He had just graduated and was looking for a job, so he took it over and became the owner of this bar.
But this bar is different from ordinary bars.
Although there are female customers, there are slightly more male customers, and most of them are in pairs.
To put it bluntly...it's gay.
"Mr. Su arrived quite quickly." Zhou Wei chuckled, "Two drinks, please."
Su Zelin looked at him: "You and him..."
"Have a drink first." Zhou Wei placed the glass in front of him.
Su Zelin frowned when he saw this, but then he picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. The cold and spicy taste of the wine stimulated his mouth. Zhou Wei took a sip of the wine glass and said, "He is my brother."
Su Zelin was stunned. Didn't Zhou Yuming tell him that he had a younger brother?!
Zhou Wei chuckled: "He and I are not related by blood, we are a reconstituted family."
He put down his wine glass: "But I didn't expect that I would meet you ten years after my brother's death." He chuckled, which formed a sharp contrast with Su Zelin's serious expression.
"Why are you looking for me?" Su Zelin looked at him.
The wine he had just drunk seemed to be taking effect, and he suddenly felt a little dizzy.
"Don't you know why I'm looking for you?" Zhou Wei said softly, turning his gaze to the distance: "He once told me about you, but before we could meet you, something happened to him."
Su Zelin lay on the bar with his eyes closed, looking very painful.
Zhou Wei chuckled softly, "When I saw your name, I was thinking, maybe this is fate... The person I saved turned out to be your sister."
Su Zelin turned his head to look at him, and in a trance he seemed to see the face that had disappeared from his life for ten years.
"You're drunk." Zhou Wei took the wine glass away from him. "Actually, I've always wanted to see you and ask you a lot of questions, but... when I see you, I don't know what to say."
Although he and Zhou Yuming were brothers from a reconstituted family, he had always liked to follow his brother around since he was little. Even though his brother disliked him outwardly, he always protected him in secret, secretly buying his favorite snacks and letting him play with his toys...
So when he learned that his brother would never come back, he still went to the airport again and again, hoping to find him there.
But...his brother will never come back again, and will stay in that sky forever.
Su Zelin, who was lying on the counter, turned his head and looked at him.
Come to think of it…it seems like he will never drink.
"Boss, he seems to have fallen asleep." said the waiter at the counter.
Zhou Wei, who was standing by, looked at him and laughed: "He really is a master of one glass."
Su Zelin fell asleep and began to dream. He dreamed of the past, the time when he was studying abroad alone and helpless.
At that time, his father's career was on the rise and his mother was still looking for his sister, so he was left abroad and had to rely on himself for food, clothing, housing and transportation.
They met in the coffee shop where he worked. He still remembered that day, the man sat at the piano in the cafe, touching the piano keys with his fingertips like a prince.
He admired him very much at that time, and later he often came back to the cafe to play the piano, so they gradually started chatting and became familiar with each other.
Until later he started pursuing him.
At first, Su Zelin was frightened. It wasn't that he didn't reject homosexuality, but he just didn't expect it to happen to him. At that time, he also didn't imagine that person would occupy such an important position in his future life...
In fact, he didn't know how to drink. Even after he left, he didn't drink too much, because he would get drunk with just a little bit of alcohol, and he didn't understand why... and that person rarely let him touch any alcoholic drinks, but that person didn't know how much he depended on him later.
But in the end, the dream ended. God took away that person, his lover, and his love.
"Awake." Huo Cheng looked at him with a frown.
This guy doesn't drink, so why did he go to a gay bar and come back drunk?
Su Zelin looked around and found that he was actually at Huo Cheng's house. "Here, sober up." Huo Cheng impatiently handed the cup to him.
"How did you get me back?" Su Zelin looked at him puzzled.
Huo Cheng sat on the sofa and looked at him: "A handsome guy called me and asked me to go to a gay bar, saying that you were drunk."
Hearing this, Su Zelin frowned even more: "Don't tell anyone!"
"Don't worry, everyone knows whether you are gay or not even if you don't say it." Huo Cheng sneered.
"Are you free?" Logically speaking, doesn't he have a job?
Su Zelin rubbed his head. As expected, he should avoid alcohol.
"By the way, that guy gave me a photo." Huo Cheng took out a photo from his pocket.
The person in the photo is sitting on a piano with his lips pursed and smiling. He doesn't seem to be very old, but you can tell that he is a handsome boy.
He took the photo...
Once, he was drunk and lying in his apartment, and he started a fire by checking his phone charger for too long.
If Nan Jinnian hadn't discovered him in time and taken him out, he would probably have died in the fire. However, everything they once had... was completely devoured by the flames... without leaving even a trace of him.
He thought, maybe that person missed him and wanted to take him and their past away with him, but he survived in the end, but their past... remained only in his memory.
"Hey..." Huo Cheng looked at the man in front of him who suddenly burst into tears in confusion.
You must be kidding!
This Su Zelin, the man known as Yuncheng Su Shao, actually... cried! Because of a photo?!
Huo Cheng was a little confused at this moment. What should he do? Comfort him? Or... ignore him?
Su Zelin held the photo in his arms...
After ten years, that person's face finally became clear again.
"Thank you." Su Zelin wiped away her tears and looked at Huo Cheng.
The latter hesitated and leaned back: "Uh... No, it's okay."
His boss...did he take the wrong medicine today?
——
Su Qiqiao curled up on the sofa and enjoyed Nan Jinnian's five-star service.
When it came time to drink tea, Mr. Nan immediately brewed the best Tieguanyin and placed it next to him.
When Su Qiqiao wanted to eat an orange, Mr. Nan immediately peeled the orange and put it in her mouth.
My shoulders feel sore...Mr. Nan is pretending to give me a massage but he's secretly taking advantage of me!
"Nan Jinnian, what was my brother calling about just now?" Su Qiqiao pinched a piece of orange and put it in his mouth.
Mr. Nan behind him said, "Regarding your brother's past when he went abroad..."
"What happened when my brother went abroad? How do you know?" She turned to look at Nan Jinnian.
Nan Jin smiled youthfully and said, "I met your brother when I first went abroad. He can be considered my predecessor."
"Oh." Su Qiqiao nodded. "Hey! Can you tell me about your experiences abroad?"
Nan Jinnian's expression froze for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal: "I have to leave for a while, so don't run around at home."
When Su Qiqiao heard that Nan Jinnian was leaving, she suddenly sat up straight and looked at him: "Where are you going?"
"What? Are you reluctant to let me go?" Nan Jin looked at the person in front of him with a young smile.
"No... no way!" Su Qiqiao turned her head away: "I'll be happier if you leave!"
"Don't worry, I will stay at the Su family to take care of you until your mother is discharged from the hospital. I will come back after I finish some things." Nan Jinnian reached out and touched Su Qiqiao's messy hair.
"Oh, I understand." Su Qiqiao lay down again after hearing that. Although there was no expression on her face, she was quite happy in her heart.
"Listen to Aunt Liu at home and don't run out. Do you hear me?" Nan Jinnian reached out and pinched her cheek. It seemed that she had taken good care of herself recently and finally had some flesh on her face.
Su Qiqiao slapped Nan Jinnian's hand away: "Hey! I'm not a child!"
Judging from her physical age, she is indeed not a child, but for her who has no memory, except that her thinking tends to be that of an adult, she is generally considered half a child.
Suddenly, Nan Jinnian leaned over and placed a kiss on her forehead: "Be good." Then she stood up and walked out: "Be good and wait for me at home."
Su Qiqiao was stunned by the kiss just now, and then she buried her whole body in the pillow: "Hurry up and go!"
Looking at the shy Su Qiqiao, Nan Jinnian left with a clear laugh.
