Chapter 216 Special (Two in One) Even if he is not the protagonist, he can...
The Armed Forces Department came to Deyin to conduct a preliminary political review and physical examination. There were five boys and three girls from Deyin who signed up for conscription.
Principal Li felt embarrassed to trouble someone to make the trip in person to see such a small number of people. The political review is simple. The academic records of each student at Deyin are not particularly good, but at least they are clean.
The examiner from the Armed Forces Department carefully checked and nodded, "Let's have a physical examination."
The physical examination was conducted in the gymnasium. Students gathered together to watch the fun. Under the watchful eyes of the public, the boys undergoing the physical examination took off their coats, then their shirts, unbuckled their belts, and finally their pants, shoes and socks, and stood on a weight and height scale wearing only their underwear.
The examiners took down their measurements one by one, and the girls exclaimed in amazement.
Especially when it comes to Lu Qiuyan's figure, many people blush like monkeys' butts.
Tian Ruan: “…” Are you so socially dead?
It’s okay for boys to expose a little bit of skin, but when they get to the military camp, they have to take a shower in a big bathhouse. The registered girls were checked by female instructors behind a curtain.
Director Hu held up a loud speaker and hushed the whole audience with a hoarse voice: "Why are you yelling? Haven't you seen a handsome guy? Haven't you seen such a beautiful body?"
“…”
Tian Ruan thought, if they had seen it before, they wouldn't blush like this - is it really okay to let everyone know in public that the protagonist has such a good figure?
Boom, boom, it seemed like thunder was rolling over the stadium.
Director Hu, who had been struck by lightning twice, was still in shock and his voice was much weaker: "Don't watch anymore, go back to your own homes and find your own mothers."
No one listened to him and continued to watch the handsome man shyly and excitedly.
Tian Ruan was afraid of being struck by lightning, so he ran away.
With seven or eight minutes left before class, Lu Qiuyan, dressed neatly, returned to the classroom with Yu Shang, followed by two or three girls with sparkling eyes. When they entered the classroom, they suddenly realized that this was not their class, and they ran out shyly.
"Is it over?" Tian Ruan asked.
Lu Qiuyan: “Yeah.”
Tian Ruan was happy for him, but also worried, "When are you leaving?"
"I'll go to a five-day training camp in a week." Lu Qiuyan said, "If I don't make the cut, I'm basically done."
Tian Ruan nodded, "You can definitely do it."
There will be another mock exam in three days.
In fact, it didn’t matter whether Lu Qiuyan participated or not, but he still took the last exam in high school.
When the results came out the next day, he ranked eighth in the grade.
Everyone felt regretful that with such good grades, he had to join the army - the other students who joined the army were at the bottom of the class and had basically no hope of getting into university, so they had to eat this hard-earned meal, which could at least be considered as gilding the lily.
If nothing unexpected happens, they will retire in three years, inherit the family business, and enjoy a luxurious life as usual.
Only Lu Qiuyan, a poor man, was an exception. He had no family business to inherit and no further education. In the eyes of others, he joined the army almost out of self-destruction.
These rumors reached Tian Ruan's ears, and naturally also reached Lu Qiuyan's ears. He said nothing, but quietly prepared the supplies for joining the army.
The day finally arrived when Lu Qiuyan was leaving.
Tian Ruan got up early in the morning. Thinking that Lu Qiuyan was leaving, he was a little dazed. He used facial cream as toothpaste, but halfway through brushing his face he felt it was bitter. He spat twice into the sink and squeezed out the toothpaste again.
After cleaning himself up, Tian Ruan went downstairs.
It was a rare Saturday morning to see Yu Shang in the restaurant. He sat seriously, with Yu Jingmo who was having a meal next to him.
"Madam is awake." Aunt Liu said with a smile.
Yu Jingmo turned his head away, "Don't you want to sleep for a while?"
Tian Ruan: "No, I'll go to the high-speed rail station to see Lu Qiuyan off later."
Yu Jingmo nodded.
Yu Shang ate the fried dumplings and drank the sweet porridge absentmindedly.
Tian Ruan sat opposite him. The servants set the tableware and breakfast, and he ate in silence.
Yu Jingmo was surprised: "Usually he is like a little sparrow, but he was poisoned and became mute today?"
Tian Ruan: "...Don't talk while eating. It's you who said that, Mr. Yu."
"Um."
After the family of three finished their meal, Yu Shang said, "Dad, I'm going to the high-speed rail station."
Yu Jingmo: "Take your little dad with you."
Tian Ruan: "Why is he the one who takes me? Can't I take him?"
Yu Jingmo laughed: "Okay."
Tian Ruan took the car keys and stuffed them into the back seat of the Rolls-Royce along with the things he had prepared over the past two days. He said to Yu Shang, who was standing there stupidly, "Let's go."
Yu Shang sat in the passenger seat, silent all the way.
Tian Ruan's consolation was in vain, and he could only sigh: "Don't be too sad, Lu Qiuyan won't be gone for long, we won't be apart for ten or eight years, he will come back."
The car found a parking space in the underground parking lot of the high-speed railway station and parked. Yu Shang helped to carry the things and frowned, "What is so heavy?"
Tian Ruan grabbed it and said, "It's delicious."
Yu Shang was speechless for a moment, "He probably can't eat so much."
"Eat slowly." These were carefully selected by Tian Ruan. There were a lot of chocolates, which could help you resist hunger during training. "Besides, Lu Qiuyan will be back from training in five days. It won't be too late for you to be sad by then."
"..." Yu Shang took out his cell phone and made a call, "Okay, we'll come find you."
There were people coming and going in and out of the waiting hall, but Lu Qiuyan still traveled simply, carrying all his luggage in a backpack. Therefore, when he told his mother that he was going to participate in a few days of outdoor school activities, he was not suspected at all.
"Lu...Lu Qiuyan..." Tian Ruan was holding an oversized shopping bag, her back bent with exhaustion.
Yu Shang stood like a pine tree, forming a sharp contrast.
Lu Qiuyan walked down the stairs to pick up the shopping bag. "What is this? Bricks?"
Tian Ruan felt relieved instantly, "Here's some food for you."
Lu Qiuyan opened it and took a look. There were ten kilograms of snacks, ten kilograms of fruits, and ten kilograms of lunch boxes. "...Are you so afraid that I will starve to death?"
Tian Ruan panted: "Don't think it's heavy, but it's all the love I give you."
"...Thank you." Lu Qiuyan looked at Yu Shang who had nothing in his hands.
Yu Shang: "These are enough for you to eat, I won't buy any more."
"oh."
Tian Ruan asked: "How long will it take for the train to leave?"
"One hour and twenty minutes."
"Let me eat an apple first to help you lighten the weight." Tian Ruan was thirsty, so he took an apple to eat.
Lu Qiuyan ate apples with him, crunching and chatting.
Yu Shang was like a mute person, unable to utter a single word for a long time.
Tian Ruan was anxious, "Oh, I need to go to the bathroom. I'm going to relieve myself, you guys chat."
Lu Qiuyan and Yu Shang were left looking at each other in silence, without shedding a single tear.
Lu Qiuyan stood on the stairs, and Yu Shang stood at the bottom. This angle was rare. Lu Qiuyan was a little taller than Yu Shang. He looked at Yu Shang's head in surprise, "You have so much hair."
Yu Shang: “?”
Lu Qiuyan thought at an inopportune time that having a lot of hair means that the hair is dense, so that place is also... stop.
Yu Shang looked at Lu Qiuyan and said, "You have a lot of hair, too."
"Not as much as you." Lu Qiuyan said.
The two were silent. What was he talking about? Couldn't he say something normal?
Yu Shang thought for a moment and asked, "When will you come back?"
"After the training camp."
"I'm asking, after joining the army."
Lu Qiuyan was stunned, "I haven't thought about it yet."
Yu Shang lowered his eyes, "Yeah."
Lu Qiuyan suddenly felt itchy in his heart, and couldn't help asking: "When do you want me to come back?"
Yu Shang: "I hope...it's up to you. Life matters should not be influenced by others."
"Oh." Lu Qiuyan took the last bite of the apple and threw the core accurately into the trash can in the distance. "I haven't told my parents about this yet. If they ask you, just say you don't know either."
"Um."
"Maybe ten years, or maybe eight years." Lu Qiuyan said again.
Yu Shang's eyes moved, "Tian Ruan said that you won't be back for ten or eight years."
"How does he know?"
"Didn't you tell him?"
Their eyes met, Lu Qiuyan hastily looked away and said, "Tian Ruan is so mysterious every day, maybe he has figured out something."
Yu Shang nodded, "He is quite crazy."
“…”
Tian Ruan hid behind the timetable on the glass door of the waiting hall and gritted his teeth: My dear, I heard everything!
Twenty minutes before departure, the radio reminded us to check our tickets. Lu Qiuyan picked up the huge shopping bag and said, "I'm leaving."
Yu Shang nodded, "Yes."
Lu Qiuyan strode towards the ticket waiting hall, and Tian Ruan sent him to the verification gate. During the luggage inspection, two large bottles of Liu Ma's homemade iced black tea were found to be in violation of regulations. Lu Qiuyan took out the iced black tea and stuffed it into Tian Ruan's hands.
Tian Ruan begged the security lady and finally she agreed to bring a bottle for Lu Qiuyan, but she had to drink two sips on the spot to show that there was no problem.
Lu Qiuyan took a sip and felt so full: "I'd better not bring it..."
Yu Shang took the iced black tea and immediately raised his head to take a second sip, right at the mouth of the bottle where Lu Qiuyan had drunk.
Lu Qiuyan: “…”
Tian Ruan opened his eyes wide. What’s the difference between this and indirect kissing?
It's a cause for celebration, everyone is celebrating, his eldest son has finally come to his senses!
Yu Shang finished drinking, screwed the cap on the bottle, and put it in Lu Qiuyan's hand, "Go."
Lu Qiuyan's ears turned red. He said "oh" and picked up his luggage and shopping bags, turned around and left without even daring to look back.
Yu Shang watched him go up the escalator to the second-floor waiting hall before walking out.
The sky is clear and cloudless, just like the youthful days that slipped away so quickly.
Tian Ruan was fine at first, but as she walked, she started to pout and was about to cry.
Yu Shang turned his head and saw it, but said nothing.
In the end, the car was driven by the bodyguard. Yu Shang did not take the car. He used another car to go to school to take care of the handover matters of the Student Union.
As the leader of the student union, he will no longer be the student union president of Deyin after the end of this semester. He has already selected the right candidate, and the future glory of Deyin will depend on the next wave of students.
Tian Ruan went to Dongqing Group.
The moment he saw Yu Jingmo, he burst into tears.
Yu Jingmo held the young man on his lap and coaxed him for a long time.
Assistant Xu opened the door and came in, then quickly left. At the door, he asked, "Mr. Yu, is the meeting cancelled?"
"Move it to the afternoon." Yu Jingmo said.
"Yes." Assistant Xu thoughtfully hung a "Busy" sign on the door.
Annie came to the door with the information and saw the sign. She rolled her eyes and said, "Fuck, another show of affection."
There was no crying in the office. Tian Ruan's eyelashes were wet and he asked, "Is it not good for you to postpone the meeting?"
Yu Jingmo: "There are so many bad things in the world, but the fact that you don't cry is the best thing for me."
Tian Ruan: "I won't cry anymore, go to the meeting."
"No hurry." Yu Jingmo patted his butt, "I'll take you to the lake and row a boat, okay?"
"?"
"It's such a beautiful spring. If we can't go on a date in the morning and enjoy the beautiful spring scenery, wouldn't it be a waste?"
Tian Ruan was fooled and immediately forgot all his unhappiness. "Indeed."
So they went on their date happily.
Yu Jingmo washed Tian Ruan's face, put perfume on him, dressed him up nicely, and took him to the wetland park to cruise around the lake and see swans and giraffes.
When someone came to see the busy Yu Jingmo, Assistant Xu repeated like a tape recorder: "Mr. Yu is on a date with his wife. Please do not disturb us."
Five days passed quickly and Lu Qiuyanka came back on Friday afternoon.
Tian Ruan took half a day off to pick up Lu Qiuyan.
What surprised him was that Yu Shang did not ask for leave. He asked, "Why didn't you ask for leave to meet Lu Qiuyan?"
Yu Shang asked curiously, "It's not like we won't see each other, why are you asking for leave?"
Tian Ruan was convinced, "Okay, there will be a time when you will be waiting for something."
In addition to Tian Ruan, Wang Weiqi also took leave. He was quite righteous and had not forgotten the time when they were loyal to each other. He was wealthy and generous, so he called his friends and sent a motorcade to welcome them.
Tian Ruan was a little dumbfounded when he saw the colorful sports cars, "Isn't this too ostentatious?"
Wang Weiqi: "This is nothing. When I returned to China, only a taxi came to pick me up. Woohoo, I will never let such a tragedy happen to Road Bully again!"
“…”
The group rushed to the high-speed rail station to pick someone up.
Lu Qiuyan traveled as lightly as he did when he left, with just a backpack. I don't know if it was Tian Ruan's illusion from time to time, but after not seeing Lu Qiuyan for a few days, he seemed to be a little darker and stronger, and the laziness in his eyes was replaced by sharpness.
Tian Ruan didn't dare to recognize him at first.
Lu Qiuyan looked at Tian Ruan and said, "One day without seeing you feels like three years. Is this three lifetimes apart from you?"
Tian Ruan: "You have such a sharp tongue, it's arguably Lu Qiuyan - wow!" He opened his arms and hugged her.
Thank God, thank earth, there was no lightning this time!
Tian Ruan knew that even the will of the world recognized his friendship with the protagonist! Long live! !
"Damn, have you not exercised these days?" Lu Qiuyan was strangled and bent over. "I've gained at least two kilograms."
Tian Ruan: “…”
I have been lazy and haven't walked these days.
Lu Qiuyan glanced and saw Wang Weiqi.
"Roadmaster, awesome." Wang Weiqi gave a thumbs up, "You are a role model for the brothers."
Those friends started to yell and jeer, "Kiss one, kiss one!"
With a loud bang, thunder exploded above the heads of those people.
“…”
Tian Ruan let go of Lu Qiuyan, looked at the sky full of lightning and thunder with pleasure, and sang: "Let the heavy rain fall~"
As he was speaking, it started to rain heavily and everyone was soaked.
Everyone: “…It’s poisonous.”
Convertible sports cars are so weak and are not as good as taxis on the roadside to protect against wind and rain.
Several people were walking on the road in the wind and rain, and each one sneezed louder than the other.
Tian Ruan took Lu Qiuyan back to the manor and threw him some clean clothes, "Take a hot bath quickly, don't catch a cold."
Lu Qiuyan was not polite either. He didn’t want to go home like this.
Tian Ruan took a quick shower, changed into home clothes, and happily went to find Lu Qiuyan with his homework book, intending to chat with him while drinking afternoon tea and doing his homework.
The main house and the annex were connected, so Tian Ruan took a shortcut. As soon as he reached the second floor, he saw a tall figure, "Yu Shang?"
Yu Shang turned around and asked, "Hmm?"
"Why are you back?"
"The first and second grade students will have a mock exam this afternoon. We need to borrow the classroom."
"Oh~" Tian Ruan rolled his eyes and looked at Haodaer, "Your hair is a little wet, did you get caught in the rain? Wash it quickly, or you will catch a cold."
"Yeah." Yu Shang walked towards his room and paused, "Why are you here?"
Tian Ruan: "...I'll lend you a vase."
Yu Shang had no doubts, he knew that this young man often "stole" his vases. For example, the blue and white porcelain on the coffee table in the main house and the two enamel flowers on the dining table, which are decorated with wild flowers that Tian Ruan picked from somewhere, are quite interesting.
Vases are originally used to hold flowers, and Yu Shang was not stingy enough to fuss about it.
Tian Ruan said, and went to the shelf where the antique vases were placed to observe, as if he was choosing a suitable container, "Which one is good?"
Yu Shang returned to the room, took off his coat, and went to open the bathroom door. In an instant, steam hit his face, bringing with it the refreshing scent of osmanthus.
The boy under the shower was startled and turned around.
Their eyes met, and Yu Shang silently closed the bathroom door.
"It must be an illusion." Yu Shang was so sure, how could Lu Qiuyan appear in his house, in the bathroom of his room?
Impossible.
Yu Shang reopened the frosted glass door of the bathroom.
The pair of clear, thin eyelids were bathed in water vapor, the pupils were black and bright, and the body was dazzlingly white.
Their eyes met again.
Yu Shang: “…………”
Lu Qiuyan: “…………”
How could your dad open the door twice?
Yu Shang opened his eyes slightly wide in disbelief.
Lu Qiuyan's body stiffened. "...What are you looking at?"
Bang, the bathroom door closed.
After a while, an embarrassed and dry voice came from outside: "Sorry."
Lu Qiuyan was taking a shower in the bathroom of her room. This fact was clearly laid out in front of Yu Shang. He suddenly felt confused and didn't know what to do. He just felt short of breath and loosened the buttons of his shirt.
One, two, three, four, suddenly coming to his senses, Yu Shang looked down at his chest and abdominal muscles, and quickly buttoned up his clothes.
It's simply outrageous.
Tian Ruan listened to the movement in the master bedroom of the annex, smiled with satisfaction, and returned to the main house with his merits and fame hidden.
Next comes the love story between the protagonist and the bottom.
About twenty minutes later, the rain stopped and the sky cleared up. Tian Ruan had his afternoon tea and thought that Lu Qiuyan would definitely make an excuse to go home and not stay for dinner. He stood up and walked forward to assist leisurely.
Sure enough, as soon as he went out, he saw Lu Qiuyan coming out of the annex room, and Yu Shang was reluctantly seeing him off.
Why could Tian Ruan see that Yu Shang was reluctant to leave? That was of course because Yu Shang’s eyes were almost glued to Lu Qiuyan, but unfortunately his mouth was like a gourd with a sawed-off mouth, and he couldn’t utter a word to retain him.
Tian Ruan sighed inwardly. He was obviously reluctant to leave. In the original book, he was even depressed for a while because of this. Why couldn't he express it?
However, the current situation is much better than that in the original book. At this time in the original book, Yu Shang was suffering from the torture of his biological father. At the same time, Lu Qiuyan went to join the army, and his sudden departure made the situation worse.
But it lacks a lot of hardships, and the love is not as passionate, heart-wrenching, and earth-shattering as in the original book.
This kind of young and naive love is just right now and is worth savoring.
"...Tian Ruan, I'm going back." Lu Qiuyan greeted Tian Ruan.
Tian Ruan came back to his senses and rode over as fast as he could, "Wait a minute, I have something to tell you."
Lu Qiuyan was not in a hurry. She stood in the fragrance and greenery of the garden. Her eyebrows and eyes were as dark as distant ink, and she looked very clean with a clear and lively look.
Tian Ruan pulled Lu Qiuyan to the flower bed and said, "When you go to join the army this time, you must be careful of Qi Feng."
"?"
"It's more than one or two sentences. Let's talk slowly. You can stay for dinner before you leave."
Lu Qiuyan nodded, "That's fine."
Tian Ruan winked at Hao Daer and asked him to follow his example.
Yu Shang: “…”
Before dusk fell, Tian Ruan and Lu Qiuyan took a walk in the manor, and Tian Ruan analyzed Qi Feng's power and the location of his hideout, which was very likely close to Lu Qiuyan's training base.
"Even if we are close, I have to be able to become the captain in a few years before I can go against him," said Lu Qiuyan.
Tian Ruan: "You must have confidence in your own strength, and I have confidence in you. If we really meet, you must not show mercy and bomb the drug lord to death."
Lu Qiuyan smiled: "Of course."
Tian Ruan didn't say that Qi Feng might fall abnormally in love with Lu Qiuyan during the game. There was no need to announce such a bad thing now. If that day really comes, it would not be too late to find a solution.
Qi Feng must die.
Yu Shang walked beside them, listened to everything, and raised a question: "Why did Qi Feng wait there when he knew that Lu Qiuyan would destroy the den?"
Lu Qiuyan: "Logically speaking, he should run."
Tian Ruan: "...I'm just making an assumption. What if he's looking for excitement and doesn't take our Chinese warriors seriously?"
Lu Qiuyan nodded, "That makes sense. Who knows what a perverted idea he has. When I become the team leader, I will kill him."
"Don't use the word 'do', Qi Feng will get excited."
“…”
After skipping this, let’s talk about Deyin.
Knowing that Yu Shang was about to step down, Lu Qiuyan sighed: "Each generation has talented people, and each has been the leader for hundreds of years. The position of the president is also a legend of the generation."
Yu Shang said modestly: "No way."
Lu Qiuyan: "Yes, during your tenure, several of the most ridiculous events in Deyin's history occurred, such as the performance of 'Stars and the Sea', the high school summer camp, and Director Hu being struck by lightning twice."
“…”
Lu Qiuyan finally realized that something was wrong, "Why do all the cases of being struck by lightning happen around us?"
Tian Ruan’s inner thoughts: Of course that’s because you are the protagonists of this world!
The protagonists of this world are those who can call the wind and rain. The will of the world exists because of them, the laws of the world are formulated because of them, and the sun and moon of the world revolve because of them.
If they did not exist, there would be no doubt that this world would be annihilated in the infinite universe.
Tian Ruan was fortunate enough to see the sun and the moon in the same sky, and to participate in the life of the protagonist of this world. His existence was small and ordinary, not even as big as a speck of dust in this vast universe and time.
However, he strives hard to shine his own light. In the eyes of someone, in the eyes of some people, he may be a gem buried in the sand.
Tian Ruan looked at the protagonists of this world and said, "Because you are special."
And has he become a little special to Yu Jingmo, Yu Shang and Lu Qiuyan?
Even if he is not the protagonist, he can still live his life well.
Like this world, like another world, all those who are trying hard to live. It is a special existence, a unique sparkling gem.
You all.
