He finally understood why Yu Zhen always wrote "To Lin Gu" on the envelope of every letter he wrote to Yu Wei. If he looked closer, he would have found a few words on the back of the letter that could only be seen under ultraviolet light: "Lin Gu, may you be safe and well."
In his letters, he told Yu Wei about his daily life and shared interesting stories with Lin Gu, but Lin Gu never responded and had other people in his life. His partners changed one after another, and Yu Zhen's heart gradually grew cold.
After the military training ended, there was a three-day holiday. Lin Gu took him to a resort in the suburbs. As soon as he opened his eyes, he was greeted by a clingy, spoiled little crybaby.
Lin Gu didn't know how Yu Wei had been doing these past three days, but he certainly had a great time. Yu Zhen was clinging to him, wishing she could be with him 24/7.
After confessing their feelings for each other, the two started dating. However, Yu Zhen repeatedly emphasized that they could not tell Yu Wei or their families, so the two could only meet secretly and had to find various excuses to avoid going out on dates.
————Time Break————
"Now you can tell me why you couldn't tell Yu Wei when you were dating, right?" Lin Gu once thought that Yu Zhen liked Yu Wei, and even secretly felt jealous.
"Do you think everyone is as promiscuous as you?" Yu Zhen leaned on Lin Gu's shoulder to rest, and slapped Lin Gu when she heard this. "My brother told me after I differentiated that I shouldn't look for a boyfriend like Lin Gu. He's fickle and promiscuous, and I can't handle him."
Yu Wei is a stubborn person. Lin Gu can be his friend, his partner, and his brother, but he can never be his younger brother's partner.
His younger brother is innocent and well-behaved, and he is very considerate of others. He won't tell anyone if he suffers a grievance. If he were to be with Lin Gu, that playboy, he would definitely get hurt.
Lin Gu was sometimes speechless. He had secretly told Yu Wei about his relationship with Yu Zhen countless times, but Yu Wei never believed him. Once, when he was drunk, Yu Wei even said bluntly, "If you dare to touch Xiao Zhen, you don't have me as your brother anymore!"
At that moment, Lin Gu silently complained to himself that it was too late. He and Yu Zhen had already kissed and hugged, done everything they should and shouldn't have done, and were just one step away from registering their marriage.
"Your brother has too much of a filter on you." Lin Gu grabbed Yu Zhen's hand and put it to his lips. "Speaking of which, aren't you tired of pretending to be a good girl at home? You've been doing it for twenty years."
"I'm willing." Yu Zhen bit Lin Gu hard, and Lin Gu groaned in pain, immediately witnessing Yu Zhen's superb acting skills.
"Ah! I'm sorry, brother, I didn't mean to." Yu Zhen exclaimed softly, quickly sitting up and pitifully lowering her head. She looked up timidly at Lin Gu, but immediately lowered her eyes again when they met, her voice trembling with tears, "I really didn't mean to... My bad teeth have their own ideas..."
"Bad teeth? Open your mouth, let me take a look." Lin Gu sat up, pinched Yu Zhen's chin, and ran his fingers around inside her mouth.
"Ahhhhh..." With his chin tightly gripped, Yu Zhen could only open his mouth and let Lin do whatever he wanted, clear saliva sliding down the corner of his mouth.
"Your brother has checked your teeth, they're perfectly fine." Lin Gu rolled over and pinned Yu Zhen beneath him, gently tapping the tip of his nose. "But you're a bad person, so you have to be punished."
"I have to go to work tomorrow," Yu Zhen said, blushing, and nudged Lin Gu. "It's already very late today."
"Your boss doesn't even go to the office, why are you worrying about it?"
"Nonsense, my sister-in-law is not the kind of person who would waste her life on frivolous pursuits." Still not quite recovered, Yu Zhen was as soft as water, her words carrying a hint of coquetry.
"Honey, have you forgotten that tonight is our wedding night..."
"Um?"
Yu Zhen's mind went blank. Oh right, their wedding... wait! Their... Zhou Siyu and Yu Wei are also getting married today!
"So don't worry, your boss definitely won't be able to get up for work tomorrow."
If Zhou Siyu can get up tomorrow, Yu Wei will be suspected.
Finally, Yu Zhen ended Lin Gu's punishment in exchange for answering one question.
When did you start liking me?
Faced with the question, Yu Zhen looked at the ceiling and pondered for a moment, then reached for a cigarette on the bedside table, cleared his throat, and said, "It's a long story, where should I begin?"
Where to begin? From the starry sky of a summer night, or a rose in a garden? From the emergency lights in a hospital, or the sound of hurried footsteps?
Perhaps it all started with that sentence, "Come home with me, and I'll be your older brother."
