Chapter 21 Death of an Internet Celebrity 15 I am thick-skinned.
Chapter 15
Jing Jue has been out for half an hour and hasn't come back yet. It would definitely take 20 minutes to go to the vegetable market and buy vegetables.
Lu Changfeng began to get a little anxious and lay on the balcony looking downstairs.
After waiting for a while and seeing that Jing Jue had not come back yet, I sent him a message asking: [Where are you? Why haven’t you come back yet? ]
After a long time without any reply from Jing Jue, Lu Changfeng became extremely anxious. He made a voice call but no one answered. When he called the other party, the phone was turned off.
Now he always has his cell phone in his hand and it is almost impossible to turn it off. Lu Changfeng's mind buzzed and he ran out to the direction of the vegetable market as fast as he could.
As soon as I walked out of the community gate, I saw Jing Jue walking towards me carrying large and small bags of things.
Jing Jue was surprised to see Lu Changfeng outside the community. When he got closer, he found that he was still wearing his home slippers. He asked, "What are you doing outside? Why didn't you change your shoes?"
When Lu Changfeng saw Jing Jue appear in front of him unharmed, his heart was at ease.
"Why didn't you answer my call? When I called you, your phone was turned off."
Jing Jue saw that he was sweating profusely and his anxious expression had not yet been retracted. Lu Changfeng also saw his reaction and could guess what happened. "Do you think something happened to me?"
Lu Changfeng nodded.
Seeing Lu Changfeng was so worried about him, Jing Jue felt warm in his heart: "My phone ran out of battery. When I went out, it was still 10%. I thought I could hold on, but turning on the data consumption consumed the battery very quickly. It automatically shut down after I bought the last order."
Lu Changfeng reached out to take the thing from Jing Jue's hand.
Jing Jue avoided him and said, "You totally forgot what the doctor told you."
The doctor told Lu Changfeng to avoid lifting heavy objects during this period to avoid aggravating his back pain.
Lu Changfeng had no choice but to withdraw his hand awkwardly.
The hot summer wind blew on their bodies as they walked towards the apartment building together.
After entering the elevator, Lu Changfeng pressed the stairs and leaned on the elevator handrail.
Jing Jue looked at Lu Changfeng from the side.
Suddenly he said, "Lu Changfeng, you are all I have. You must be safe and live a long life."
Lu Changfeng's heart was stabbed.
He didn't look at Jing Jue. He knew Jing Jue's expression at the moment without looking. Lu Changfeng didn't dare to look.
"You call me by my first name all the time now."
"Then what else do you want me to call you?" Jing Jue put down the bag in his hand, approached Lu Changfeng, put his hands on the handrail of the elevator, and half-circled Lu Changfeng in his arms.
The two were so close that Jing Jue's breath sprayed on Lu Changfeng's face.
Lu Changfeng thought of the kiss in the police station toilet and avoided Jing Jue's sight.
Jing Jue kept asking, "What do you want to hear, Uncle Lu, Captain Lu, or something else? I'll call you whatever you want to hear."
The two of them were in an extremely ambiguous position, and it seemed that Jing Jue was going to kiss her in the next second. Lu Changfeng pushed him away, "You are so naughty, just talk, don't get so close to me."
Jing Jue leaned on the other side.
The elevator stopped. It wasn't their floor, so someone must be going down.
The door was opened on the corresponding floor.
Outside was a middle-aged woman holding a puppy.
The elevator door slowly closed, and they were the only two people left in the elevator.
Lu Changfeng glanced at the elevator floor and saw that they were on five floors more.
Just as he was looking away and preparing to wait for the elevator to arrive so that he could get out and open the door for Jing Jue, Jing Jue suddenly rushed over and pressed him against the inner wall of the elevator.
Before Lu Changfeng could react, Jing Jue kissed him.
From the moment he saw Lu Changfeng coming out to look for him outside the community gate, he wanted to rush up and kiss him regardless of the consequences.
But he knew that Lu Changfeng would be unhappy.
Lu Changfeng is a very face-conscious person.
Moreover, if he rashly kissed Lu Changfeng, it might cause their easing relationship to become rigid again.
Jing Jue could only bear it and just look at Lu Changfeng.
He endured it all the way, and when he was almost home, he couldn't bear it anymore.
There was always a voice in my head shouting - kiss him, kiss him, kiss him!
Go ahead and kiss him!
After weighing the pros and cons, Jing Jue let his desires control his brain.
He kissed Lu Changfeng forcefully. It didn't matter if he was beaten. When Lu Changfeng was angry, he would chase after Lu Changfeng and coax him. If he was patient, he would always be able to coax him into doing what he wanted.
Lu Changfeng has a harsh mouth, but actually has a softer heart than anyone else. He has a sharp tongue but a soft heart.
Jing Jue held Lu Changfeng's face, rubbing and sucking his soft lips. Jing Jue wanted more.
He didn't care what others said, he just wanted Lu Changfeng.
Just as his tongue tip invaded Lu Changfeng's mouth, Lu Changfeng pushed it away forcefully.
Lu Changfeng said angrily: "Jing Jue!"
The elevator door opened at this moment.
Lu Changfeng quickly walked out of the elevator. Jing Jue picked up his things and ran after him, but he was still a step too slow.
When he reached the door, Lu Changfeng had already entered the room.
Jing Jue held the door with his foot, pushed it open with force, and then used his back to block the door before entering the house.
Lu Changfeng was angry. Jing Jue put down his things and tried to coax him, but he couldn't enter Lu Changfeng's bedroom.
Jing Jue knocked on the door, "Lu Changfeng, I like you. Even if you beat me to death, I still like you."
"It was my fault for forcing myself to kiss you. I accept it even if you hit me, scold me, or make me angry. But I would still kiss you a thousand times or ten thousand times."
Jing Jue waited for a while but there was no response from the room. He said outside the door: "Lu Changfeng, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself for wanting to be my guardian. If you hadn't become my guardian, my memory of you would only be that of a very kind policeman, a police uncle who treated me very well. But you brought me home, took care of me, and treated me well without reservation. If it were anyone else, I don't believe he would not be attracted to you."
Lu Changfeng was in the room listening to Jing Jue's confession, which didn't sound like a confession. As he was revealing his true feelings, his heart almost jumped out of his chest.
He couldn't tell what his feelings towards Jing Jue were. He didn't want to fall in love with Jing Jue, but he couldn't completely push him away.
Qiu Shaoyang said that he was a very clear-headed person, but he was always confused and particularly twisted when it came to Jing Jue's affairs.
Lu Changfeng actually thought about doing as Qiu Shaoyang said, that he and Jing Jue would be tied together and each would get what they needed.
He wanted Jing Jue to stay by his side forever, and Jing Jue also wanted to be with him for the rest of his life. Although they wanted different things, their goal was the same, which was to live together for the rest of their lives.
Lu Changfeng also felt that this was unfair to Jing Jue, because what Jing Jue wanted was his pure love.
If Jing Jue just wanted to stay with him, Lu Changfeng would never drive him away.
Lu Changfeng also knew that he was being very twisted, and that nothing was going smoothly between him and Jing Jue in this mode of getting along.
But he still couldn't easily and muddleheadedly be with Jing Jue.
Jing Jue is still young and should have more choices, but his life has reached the age where it is on the decline.
Without waiting for Lu Changfeng to come out of the bedroom, nor waiting for any response, he knew that Lu Changfeng had retreated into his shell like a snail.
Jing Jue didn't want to force it. He had time and he was still young. He wouldn't dislike Lu Changfeng less just because he got older and his appearance faded.
He knew clearly that Lu Changfeng was twelve years older than him, and he was in the prime of his youth. If Lu Changfeng was with him, they would definitely face the age difference and the traces left by time.
Jing Jue went to the kitchen to cook.
In fact, he had learned to cook for himself a long time ago. When Lu Changfeng worked overtime or on duty at the police station, he would leave him enough living expenses, taxi fares, three meals a day, and pocket money.
Jing Jue didn't want Lu Changfeng to work too hard, so he learned to cook for himself. If Lu Changfeng didn't work overtime and came home normally, Jing Jue would leave food for him.
Children without parents have to grow up early. Fortunately, he had Lu Changfeng to accompany him through the most difficult time.
Lu Changfeng is the one who can't cook. He can only cook rice noodles, which are not even as good as the one downstairs that costs five yuan a bowl. But Jing Jue just likes to eat it because it is made by Lu Changfeng. He will eat it no matter how bad it tastes.
By the time Jing Jue finished cooking, it was already dark outside.
He went to knock on Lu Changfeng's door and said, "The food is ready and on the table. Eat it while it's hot. I'm leaving now. It won't be a bother to put it in the dishwasher after you're done. Or you can put it in the sink. If you don't want to clean it up, just leave it on the table. I'll come and help you clean it up tomorrow."
There was no sound in the room. Jing Jue walked to the door, opened it and then closed it.
When Lu Changfeng heard the sound of the door closing outside, he immediately came out of the house and bumped into Jing Jue.
Jing Jue did not leave. If he didn't do this, Lu Changfeng would not come out.
He said to Lu Changfeng: "You are thirty-five years old, but you are not as good as me. You just run away when you encounter problems."
But he also knew that Lu Changfeng came out not because they would not meet again if he left, but to keep him.
"It doesn't matter if you're tough-talking. I'm thick-skinned."
Jing Jue went to the dining table to serve Lu Changfeng some food, and said in a relaxed tone as if nothing had happened, "Come and eat."
Lu Changfeng sat down at the dining table. Jing Jue put food into his bowl and talked about his freshman and sophomore years. "When I first came to Yancheng to attend college, I didn't use your money out of spite. I didn't want to touch my parents' compensation money. It was okay to eat in the school cafeteria. During the holidays, the cafeteria was closed, so I bought vegetables and cooked for myself. The dormitory didn't allow the use of high-power electrical appliances, so I could only buy a small electric cooker and use it secretly. My cooking skills also got better and better."
Lu Changfeng felt sad after hearing this. Perhaps if he had not slapped Jing Jue at that time, they would not have lost contact for five whole years.
Jing Jue said: "I don't regret telling you that I like you. I really like you. I just regret why I didn't choose to study in the Yunnan Provincial Police Academy. In this way, I could secretly go back to see you when I miss you, and see you many more times."
"Have you ever peeked at me since you went back?"
Jing Jue nodded. Only he knew the hardship of traveling through mountains and rivers. He couldn't buy a ticket during the National Day holiday, so he could only buy a short-distance standing ticket and buy tickets at each stop. A one-way trip took 35 hours, and a round trip took 70 hours. At that time, he was not afraid of anything, but he was afraid that Lu Changfeng really didn't want him anymore.
Jing Jue said: "Lu Changfeng, I like you. I don't want to spend my whole life with you. It's not the kind of dependence that a younger generation has on an elder."
"As long as you don't chase me away, you can remain silent and not respond for the rest of your life. I am willing to perform a one-man show by myself. I have experienced life and death, and I know what I want better."
