Chapter 68 Hidden Rules 13 I Like You
Chapter 13
The weather in Spring City is great.
Lu Changfeng looked at the azure sky and felt refreshed.
"I have never seen such a beautiful day in Yancheng. Spring City is still the best."
"Then come back." Qiu Shaoyang said.
Lu Changfeng chuckled, "Since I have decided to give myself a new start, there is no reason to go back."
"How is the case going?" Qiu Shaoyang asked.
There have been endless discussions about the Judge on the Internet during this period. Almost anyone who is not a primitive person living independently knows information about the Judge.
Lu Changfeng was unable to reveal the details of the case to Qiu Shaoyang, and only said, "We have found the murderer, but we don't have any information about the judge."
Qiu Shaoyang asked him: "Do you still remember the case of Chen Jiexi?"
"Remember."
"You just happened to be back in Chuncheng. Why don't you go meet Chen Jiexi? He's in prison in Chuncheng. Maybe you can get some information about the Judge from him."
Lu Changfeng thought Qiu Shaoyang's suggestion was very good and planned to take some time to go to the prison and find Chen Jiexi to find out the situation.
Qiu Shaoyang took Lu Changfeng and Jing Jue to a reserved restaurant for lunch, and then sent them home.
Lu Changfeng's home is still the same as before, and Qiu Shaoyang and Mingtang help to take care of the flowers and plants.
Qiu Shaoyang handed the car keys to Lu Changfeng, "Mingtang's car is in the garage, you can drive it at will."
Lu Changfeng took it.
His house is not big, with two bedrooms and a living room. He bought it so that Jing Jue could have a stable residence with him. It is not close to the Municipal Bureau, but it is close to where Jing Jue goes to school.
Seeing Jing Jue still standing at the door, Lu Changfeng asked him, "Aren't you going to put your luggage away?"
When Jing Jue thought about the time when he left this home, he felt as if his feet were filled with lead.
In this room, he said some very unpleasant words that deeply hurt Lu Changfeng's heart.
Qiu Shaoyang felt that they needed some space, so he said, "I'll go back."
Lu Changfeng nodded.
After Qiu Shaoyang left, Lu Changfeng pulled his suitcase back into the bedroom, turned around and pushed open the door of the next bedroom.
"Not coming yet?"
Jing Jue walked over and the room was still the same as when he left.
Standing at the bedroom door, Jing Jue's eyes were sore.
Seeing that he had not taken that step, Lu Changfeng said, "If going home makes you feel embarrassed, I won't force you. You can go downstairs and get a room in the hotel across the street."
Lu Changfeng said and turned around.
Jing Jue held him back and said, "I'm sorry for what I said back then."
Lu Changfeng was deeply touched. After calming down, he looked at Jing Jue and said, "You said something that hurt me, and I slapped you a few times. What happened back then is over."
"sorry."
Lu Changfeng pushed Jing Jue into the house. "I'll only stay for a few days this time. My things may not be complete. Just make do with what you have."
Jing Jue hugged Lu Changfeng and said, "I must have made you very sad at that time."
"Of course, I can't understand why the child I raised for seven years would be such an ungrateful person." Lu Changfeng wanted to knock Jing Jue's hand away, but Jing Jue held him too tightly, making it hard for him to breathe. He could only give up, "But I never thought of not wanting you. For so many years, I have been waiting for you to come home."
Jing Jue's tears dripped on Lu Changfeng's neck, his tears were like fire, burning Lu Changfeng's heart.
Lu Changfeng raised his head and reached out to wipe away Jing Jue's tears. "Okay, it's all over. If I really blamed you, I wouldn't bring you back, I wouldn't let you move into my home in Yancheng, and I wouldn't let you stay by my side."
Jing Jue felt more and more that he had failed Lu Changfeng's kindness. "If I hadn't left in anger that year, but stayed by your side and went to study at the Yun Provincial Police Academy, would everything be different?"
"Don't imprison yourself in the past." Lu Changfeng gently patted Jing Jue's face a few times, "Wash your face and take a rest."
Jing Jue let go of Lu Changfeng and wiped away his tears. "I haven't been back to Chuncheng for a long time. I want to go and pay my respects to my parents."
Lu Changfeng thought so and said, "I'll go with you."
Jing Jue hummed.
"Then wash your face and get ready. I'll go tell Shao Yang and we'll go to the cemetery."
Lu Changfeng knocked on the door of Qiu Shaoyang's house opposite.
Not long after, Qiu Shaoyang came over to open the door and let him in. "Are you done talking so soon?"
Lu Changfeng said: "There's nothing to talk about. We've already talked about what we need to talk about."
Qiu Shaoyang asked: "So what are your plans next?"
"He said he wanted to go to the cemetery to pay respect to his parents. I'll go with him and come over to tell you."
"Okay." Qiu Shaoyang said, "Don't worry, go ahead. I'll send you the dinner location on WeChat. Just take him there."
Lu Changfeng was a little hesitant, "Would it be inappropriate for us to bring him along to the dinner? After all, he doesn't know those people."
"You can just introduce them to each other. All the people at the party tonight are our own people." Qiu Shaoyang leaned against the wall and crossed his arms, saying, "How about you just leave him behind, and then you'll feel relieved?"
Lu Changfeng: “…”
"Stay, no one will mind."
"good."
Lu Changfeng drove Mingtang's car to take Jing Jue to the cemetery to pay homage to his parents. Jing Jue was not in Chuncheng in the past few years. Every year on his parents' death anniversary, Lu Changfeng went to pay homage.
Jing Jue sat in the passenger seat, opened the window, and breathed in the air of Chuncheng. Everything was familiar to him.
Lu Changfeng asked him, "You finally came back. Don't you plan to meet your former classmates? I remember that you had a very good relationship with Liu Ju and Liao Jiale."
"I have an appointment. See you tomorrow."
Lu Changfeng said, "Okay."
Then the car fell into silence again. Liu Ju was present when Lu Changfeng discovered Jing Jue's sexual orientation.
He went to a gay bar with Liu Ju. Lu Changfeng and his team were investigating a case at the time, and that was the beginning of their falling out.
Today's Jing Jue is no longer the little boy who was riddled with thorns after his sexual orientation was exposed.
He asked Lu Changfeng, "What were you thinking when you bumped into me in the gay bar?"
"angry."
"Why are you angry? I hid my sexual orientation?"
"Sexual orientation has never been a problem for me. I was just angry that you didn't come home, didn't reply to my messages, and didn't return the living expenses." Lu Changfeng said: "You were not yet an adult at the time. I took care of you and was responsible for everything about you."
Jing Jue uttered an "oh", feeling a little disappointed but more warm, "I must have been a jerk at that time."
"Everyone has a rebellious period." Lu Changfeng said honestly, "What I fear most is that you will hang out in bars and come into contact with social idlers. You grew up in this land and have been exposed to relevant education since childhood. This city is not that safe. If you get sick or are fed poison, your life will be ruined. What I fear most is that you have no future."
"I'm afraid you don't take care of yourself."
Lu Changfeng said in a relaxed tone: "Fortunately, you chose the police academy. I felt relieved at that moment. I knew that no matter how bad you are, you can't be that bad."
It was the first time that Jing Jue heard Lu Changfeng say these things, and his eyes were filled with tears.
At that time, his mind was filled with embarrassment and fear of having his sexual orientation discovered by Lu Changfeng, and he didn't think about anything else.
"If I had been more mature, maybe I wouldn't have hurt you."
Lu Changfeng said in a serious tone: "Jing Jue, it's all over. Don't think about it anymore. Look forward."
Jing Jue nodded, "You are right, we still have a bright future. No matter how angry you are this time, I will stick to you like a dog-skin plaster and you can't get rid of me."
Lu Changfeng was amused by him.
After buying offerings on the way and returning to the cemetery, Jing Jue's mood was very different.
I used to feel sad whenever I saw my parents’ tombstones, but as I grew older, I gradually accepted this fact.
"Dad, Mom. Your son is here to see you. I'm fine now. I'm Uncle Lu's colleague. You don't have to worry about me. I will live a good life with Uncle Lu."
Lu Changfeng said to the tombstone: "Jing Jue is doing well now, don't worry, I will take good care of him."
Lu Changfeng doesn’t even know who his biological parents are. He was picked up from the trash can by his grandfather.
When he was a child, he thought that when he grew up, he would become a policeman, find his parents, and ask them why they threw him into the trash can.
But when he grew up and became a policeman, he gave up the idea.
Why bother pursuing the truth?
What kind of parent throws their child in the trash? Only garbage goes in the trash can, and to his parents, he is just like garbage.
Jing Jue talked a lot with his parents, telling them where he had been and what he had done over the years.
Lu Changfeng listened quietly at the side.
When the sun was about to set, Jing Jue stood up, patted the dirt on his clothes, and stretched out his hand to Lu Changfeng, "Let's go home."
Lu Changfeng extended his hand and used Jing Jue's strength to pull himself up.
Looking at the long stairs, Jing Jue thought of the year his parents passed away. He often ran to the cemetery and stayed there until dark.
"Remember, I refused to walk and you carried me down."
Lu Changfeng nodded: "I remember, your parents had just passed away at that time, and you were frightened. You didn't feel safe living with me, and your relatives came to snatch your custody. You often came here after school, and every time I couldn't find you, I would always find you here."
"Suddenly I feel like I caused you a lot of trouble in the past." Jing Jue thought back to his childhood, when he was really naughty.
Lu Changfeng said, "There were fights every now and then at school, and I was almost running out of time investigating the case. I finally finished investigating the case, but before I could even feel happy, your teacher called me back to school to scold me."
"Have you ever thought of throwing me away?" Jing Jue asked.
Lu Changfeng shook his head: "Never thought about it."
Jing Jue was a little surprised.
Lu Changfeng said: "What I thought at the time was that I absolutely did not want to get married and have children, otherwise I would probably be scolded endlessly."
Jing Jue laughed out loud, then took Lu Changfeng's hand and pressed it on her belly, "I can't have children, you don't have to be afraid."
Lu Changfeng looked at Jing Jue in shock and pulled his hand back with force, "Nervous."
I looked back guiltily at the place where Jing Jue's parents' tombstones were, and I always felt like they were staring at me.
I didn't notice that I stepped on empty air.
Jing Jue reached out and pulled him up, so he didn't fall.
Lu Changfeng glared at Jing Jue, "Don't speak nonsense here. Aren't you afraid that your parents will hear it?"
"They can't hear it, and even if they do, so what? I just like you." Jing Jue said indifferently.
However, Lu Changfeng felt uneasy and nervous.
Jing Jue looked at Lu Changfeng's back and shouted loudly: "Lu Changfeng, I like you."
Lu Changfeng quickened his pace to escape.
