Chapter 123 Drunk Kiss
Lu Yan was stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses and subconsciously tried to push Tang Rufeng away, but the other's fingertips were deeply embedded in his shoulders, firmly and unshakably. After a fierce struggle, the final result was that both of them had deep teeth marks on their lips, the taste of blood filled the tip of their tongues, and the pain was obvious.
Tang Rufeng was finally pushed away. He staggered back two steps, a strand of hair slipped quietly, and his face turned pale.
Lu Yan lowered his eyes and touched the blood on his lips. The fine stinging sensation made people feel strange. He looked up at Tang Rufeng, not angry at all, as if the kiss just now was just a harmless joke. He smiled meaningfully and said, "You have sharp teeth."
Eighty percent of them were born in the year of the dog.
Tang Rufeng curled his lips slightly, and for some reason he smiled, but his smile seemed a little self-deprecating: "It was just a joke, I hope I didn't scare you, please take me home."
Neither of them mentioned what happened just now and remained silent all the way.
Lu Yan was steering the car, not knowing what he was thinking about, seemingly in a trance, until he heard Tang Rufeng's voice reminding him that he was home. Only then did he react and step on the brakes. The force caused him to tilt forward for a moment.
Damn...
Lu Yan cursed in his heart. He leaned back in his chair, glanced at the dilapidated high-rise building outside, and said to Tang Rufeng, "Move to a better place in a few days. This place is too messy and far from the hospital. It's not convenient for your mother to get treatment."
Tang Rufeng nodded, seeming a little silent: "Got it."
He opened the car door and got out, preparing to go upstairs to go home, but found that Lu Yan had also followed him down. He leaned against the car door and lit a cigarette. His handsome profile was a little blurry in the mist, and he was holding a silver lighter in his hand, which looked very familiar.
Tang Rufeng paused when he saw this, turned back to Lu Yan, and stretched out his hand without saying a word.
Lu Yan raised his eyebrows slightly and handed him the lighter with a smile.
Tang Rufeng didn't answer: "Give me your phone."
Lu Yanrao asked with interest, "What are you doing?"
Tang Rufeng just said, "Give it to me first."
Lu Yan had no choice but to take out his cell phone from his pocket, unlock it, and hand it over. However, he saw that Tang Rufeng had saved a number in his address book, so he handed it back: "My phone number."
Lu Yan took it, waved the phone in front of him, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll ask you out to play next time when I'm free."
He opened the car door, sat in the driver's seat, and drove away. Tang Rufeng stood by the roadside and watched him until the car drove away, then he turned around and went upstairs.
Lu Yan never thought about what Tang Rufeng's sudden kiss by the river meant, because even if he thought about it, he might not be able to figure it out. It is better to be a little confused in life, but sometimes the brain is out of control.
When falling asleep at night, Lu Yan stared at the ceiling above his head and fell into deep thought. The light was dim and the faint light reflected by the crystal lamp always made him think of the sparkling river surface and Tang Rufeng's eyes that were particularly silent in the dark night.
He had never seen anyone like him.
Like pieces of broken porcelain, they are filled with unspeakable pain and silence, as if they were born for the word "death" -
In fact, the other party's future ending is indeed death. Like a moth to a flame, he and she will fall from a tall building and break into millions of pieces.
Lu Yan thought too much, and fell asleep in the second half of the night. Although he got Tang Rufeng's mobile phone number, he never called her for some reason, because not long after the bar incident, the Lu family received a piece of shocking news.
"What did you say?! Mr. Duan wants to break off the engagement with A Yan?!"
Lu Wanshan received such bad news early in the morning. He stumbled and fell directly onto the sofa. Yang Qin reached out to support him and helped him calm down: "Hey, Wanshan, don't worry. Listen to what Manager Wang has to say first."
The person sent by the Duan family to deliver the message was a junior leader in the company's publicity department, who happened to be related to the Lu family. It was he who helped to arrange this marriage in the first place, and of course he would be the one to handle the cancellation of the engagement now.
Manager Wang adjusted his glasses, looking a little embarrassed. "Old Lu, I have said everything I can, both good and bad. There is really no room for change in this matter. You know, the eldest son of the Duan family has always liked Lu Bing. Two days ago, he suddenly went to Chairman Duan and said he wanted to cancel the engagement. It was probably because of Lu Bing. No matter how others persuade him, it is useless."
Yang Qin sneered when she heard this: "Master Duan is so arrogant. What does he think of our son of the Lu family? Is he going to let him pick and choose the big radishes in the vegetable market?!"
Manager Wang quickly advised, "Sister-in-law, calm down, calm down. It's not worth it to ruin your health. Chairman Duan feels that this matter is unfair to you, so he sent me here to mediate. In my opinion, we should just take advantage of the situation. The Duan family is big and powerful, and we can't afford to offend them."
Lu Wanshan's face was uncertain when he heard this. The Lu family was in the building materials industry. They had been relying on the protection of the real estate giant Duan to gain a foothold in City A. Their business friends also gave him some face because of the Duan family. If they lost this marriage relationship, the loss of the Lu family would not be as simple as it seemed on the surface. "Mr. Duan only said that he wanted to break off the engagement with A Yan, did he say anything else?"
Lu Wanshan still held on to a glimmer of hope in his heart. If Duan Jiyang wanted to get engaged to Lu Bing, his loss would not be too great. However, Manager Wang shook his head, and his heart fell into the abyss: "Mr. Duan didn't mention anything else, but he has always liked Lu Bing. It is estimated that it will be a matter of time. You don't have to worry too much."
Lu Wanshan was completely speechless and couldn't laugh anymore. His face was gloomy and he didn't even want to say polite words: "Have you finished talking? If you're done, leave now."
Manager Wang didn't mind and smiled, "Chairman Duan's intention is to ask Lu Yan to find time to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau with Master Duan and bring their ID to cancel the engagement record, so as to avoid... avoid affecting their future marriage."
Not only marriage but also engagement between homosexuals needs to be registered with relevant departments. The Duan family's attitude of wanting to get rid of the Lu family should not be too obvious. Lu Wanshan was about to get angry when he heard this. A familiar voice sounded above his head: "Go back and tell Duan Jiyang to pick a time. I will go there with my ID."
Lu Wanshan looked up and saw Lu Yan waking up and coming out of the house. He was standing on the second floor with a nonchalant look. He was immediately furious: "What does this have to do with you? Get out of here!"
He thought from the bottom of his heart that it was because Lu Yan was living a life of debauchery outside that Duan Jiyang had no choice but to break off the engagement.
Lu Yancai was not used to this old man, so he raised his eyelids and asked, "It has nothing to do with me? Then why don't you and Duan Jiyang go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to cancel the engagement?"
Yang Qin was afraid that he would upset Lu Wanshan, so she secretly winked at him and gently scolded him, "Ayan, don't you see how angry your father is? Go back to your room when I tell you to, and don't say a word."
Lu Yan then curled his lips, turned around and went back to the house. He was in a good mood today and didn't want to bother with the old man.
After waiting for so long, the day of breaking off the engagement with Duan Jiyang finally arrived. Lu Yan was afraid that something might go wrong, so he took all his documents and rushed to the Civil Affairs Bureau early in the morning without even eating. He put his hands in his coat pockets, and although he looked calm, his fingertips were actually shaking with excitement.
Damn, I can finally get rid of that idiot Duan Jiyang!
Duan Jiyang was brought here by the driver. After he got off the car, he saw a familiar figure waiting at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau from a distance. It was Lu Yan. A complicated look flashed in his eyes, and he walked over: "Lu Yan."
Lu Yan hadn't eaten since early in the morning, and his blood sugar was low, so his reaction was inevitably a little slow. When he heard Duan Jiyang's voice, he was stunned for a second before reacting: "It's you. I have brought my ID, and you can go and handle the formalities."
Duan Jiyang saw his pale face and seemed to want to say something, but he didn't say it. He said in a deep voice: "Lu Yan, I owe you this matter. If you need my help in the future, just let me know."
Lu Yan thought, "Forget it, I can't help you. You and Lu Bing being together is better than anything else."
He didn't want to stand outside and talk nonsense, so he went in first to get a number.
Duan Ji Yang couldn't tell what he felt at that moment, he just felt that Lu Yan was forcing himself to smile. He himself had been infatuated with Lu Bing for many years and knew best the feeling of compromising. Putting himself in Lu Yan's shoes, he was afraid that Lu Yan would not feel well either.
While sitting in front of the window to handle the formalities, Duan Jiyang did not feel the joy and relief he had imagined, but instead had a subtle sense of emptiness. He recalled that he had gone to Komodo Beach to relax before, holding a handful of light pink sand in his hands, but the tighter he held it, the faster it flowed away, and in the end there was nothing left in his hands.
When the procedure reached the last step, Lu Yan's smile was harder to suppress than AK. He was afraid that he would not be able to hold back his laughter, so he quickly lowered his head and covered his mouth, and did not say much during the whole process.
The staff member obviously misunderstood something. He looked at Lu Yan with a little sympathy and handed the documents back to them: "Hello, the engagement record has been deleted. Please keep your respective documents and don't lose them."
Lu Yan whispered a thank you, took the ID card and put it in his pocket, turned around and walked away. Duan Jiyang saw this and quickly grabbed him, trying to find something to say: "Lu Yan, the breakup was my idea, it has nothing to do with Lu Bing. If you want to blame someone, blame me, don't involve him."
Lu Yan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and pulled his hand back directly: "Mr. Duan, love is something you can't force, let's part ways amicably, there is no question of blaming or not blaming me."
He patted Duan Jiyang's shoulder and said sincerely, "When you and Lu Bing get married, I'll give you a big red envelope. I'm leaving now. Bye!"
Lu Yan couldn't hide the joy in his tone. He ignored Duan Jiyang's ugly face and drove away. Today was a good day for Lu Yan to regain his freedom. He had already made an appointment with a group of friends to drink and celebrate, and even Tang Rufeng was not left out.
The drinking party was scheduled for 7pm. Lu Yan entered the room at 6:59pm. When he got to the booth on the second floor, he found that Pan Yuan was the only one sitting there.
Lu Yan walked over to Pan Yuan and sat down, then asked casually, "Why are you the only one here? Where are the others?"
Pan Yuan glanced at him and said something ambiguous: "They are busy and can't come."
Lu Yan raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean? So many people are busy?"
He invited more than a dozen people.
Pan Yuan was speechless and rolled his eyes: "Lu Yan, are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? You and Duan Jiyang have broken off the engagement, so of course they won't give you face. I heard that Lu Bing's personal clothing brand was selected into the fashion week today, and they all went to the show to show their support."
Lu Yan took two crystal dice from the table and started tossing them. He didn't look angry at all. He smiled and said, "It's normal for people to get cold when they leave. Why don't you go to the show with me?"
Pan Yuan said disdainfully, "If the organizers hadn't given Duan Jiyang face, do you really think Lu Bing, a new designer, would have been selected? That's why I didn't bother to join in the fun."
It is true that Pan Yuan has a crush on Duan Jiyang, and he hopes that Duan Jiyang and Lu Yan will break off their engagement as soon as possible, but as the saying goes, there is no best relationship, only more hateful relationships.
"Look at Lu Bing, who seems so noble and pure everyday, and treats Duan Jiyang coldly. If he is so powerful, he shouldn't ask Duan Jiyang to help him. He is really a whore who wants to build a memorial archway for himself."
Lu Yan: "They both want to fight and be beaten, why do you worry about it?"
As they were talking, they heard hurried footsteps coming from downstairs. It was Tang Rufeng who was late. He looked around and found Lu Yan's booth. He ran over breathlessly with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead: "Sorry, I was late because of the traffic jam."
Pan Yuan saw that Tang Rufeng's features were somewhat similar to Duan Ji Yang's under the light. He said nothing and turned his head away with a guilty look on his face: it was he who got Tang Rufeng drunk and sent her to Lu Yan's bed.
Lu Yan smiled and patted the seat next to him: "Sit down, I was planning to have a good time today, but it's a pity that only you two are here."
His tone was full of regret. Such a great thing had no one to celebrate with.
Pan Yuan couldn't help but complain: "You're still in a mood to be lively even after your engagement was broken off."
Lu Yan brought a glass of iced drink to Tang Rufeng to cool him down, and chatted with Pan Yuan without being idle: "It's because the engagement is broken that we need to liven things up. Haven't you heard that? Bye, bye, the next one will be better."
When he said the word "good", he ruffled Tang Rufeng's hair, not knowing whether he was hinting at something.
Pan Yuan snorted and laughed: "Just keep talking tough."
If Lu Yan could really let go of Duan Jiyang so easily, why did he still flirt with this little waitress? He probably saw that she looked similar to Duan Jiyang and was using her as a substitute to comfort himself.
But Pan Yuan felt that he had no right to laugh at Lu Yan. Lu Yan at least had a substitute, but he didn't even have one: "Forget it, let's not talk about these troubles. You treat us today, and we won't leave until we are drunk."
Pan Yuan was really unhappy. He was not the one to marry when Duan Ji Yang got married for the first time, and he was not the one to marry for the second time either. Moreover, the person he married was Lu Bing, whom he hated the most. So he didn't say much during the whole process and just drank.
Tang Rufeng actually didn't know why Lu Yan asked him to come here today, and he hurried over after the exam. He heard Lu Yan and Pan Yuan chatting, and they mentioned the word "broken engagement" in their conversation. He couldn't help but pause, turned his head and looked at Lu Yan in surprise and asked:
"Are you engaged to someone else?"
I don't know if it was an illusion, but when Tang Rufeng asked this question, his dark eyes reflected the faint blue light, and he looked like some cold-blooded animal crawling in the forest, dark and dangerous.
Lu Yan was fed several glasses of wine by Pan Yuan and was having a headache. He did not notice Tang Rufeng's abnormality and said vaguely, "Well, the engagement was just cancelled today."
Hearing this, Tang Rufeng lowered his eyes thoughtfully and did not ask any more questions. He usually did not read the news much and did not know about the things going on in the upper class circles. He even found out today that Lu Yan was engaged and then broke off the engagement.
There were too few people at the table, and no matter how much they drank, the party just couldn't get lively. In the end, Pan Yuan was so drunk that he lay on the table and couldn't get up. He could only call a driver to pick him up.
Lu Yan was also drunk and his eyes were full of water. He could only stand steadily with the help of Tang Rufeng. He put his arm around the young man's shoulder and leaned close to his ear. The light hot air sprayed on his neck. His voice was low and lazy: "Can you drive?"
Tang Rufeng whispered a word: "Yes."
Lu Yan half-closed his eyes and smiled: "That's great, I don't need to find a driver. I used to give you rides, can you give me a ride today..."
Tang Rufeng said "OK" again.
Lu Yan was too tall and heavy, so Tang Rufeng had to use some effort to help him downstairs. Fortunately, he was a good drinker and did not make any noise or trouble when drunk. He just leaned against the car window and fell asleep.
Tang Rufeng drove towards Lu Yan's home according to the location of the car's navigation system, then helped him upstairs, unlocked the door with his fingerprint, and the door opened with a click.
This apartment was bought for Lu Yan by his family after he graduated. It is less than 200 square meters and there is an auntie who comes to clean it regularly, so it looks relatively clean.
Tang Rufeng helped Lu Yan lie down on the bed and was about to bend down to take off his shoes, but unexpectedly his wrist was tightened and he was unexpectedly pulled onto the bed by the other party. His entire vision was turned upside down in an instant.
Tang Rufeng's body tensed up in an instant because of his vigilance. He grabbed Lu Yan's shoulders, frowned, and said in a low voice with a warning: "What are you doing?!"
Lu Yan was drunk, but not completely drunk. He stared at Tang Rufeng's cold eyes and inexplicably recalled the kiss by the river that night. He couldn't help but whisper:
"Want a cigarette?"
The air in the room heated up rapidly because of his words, as if under a spell, making people's bodies hot, breathing rapid, and legs weak...
