Chapter 95 Layout

In the noisy mahjong room, Lu Jun was holding a dogtail grass in his mouth, his face beaming. He was extremely lucky today, winning three games in a row. He only needed one more game to buy a pack of cigarettes, so he wouldn't have to use the dogtail grass to satisfy his craving. He could also buy some dwarf bubble gum for Leong Ching-hsuan!

Lai San, who was sitting opposite him, was not as lucky. He had been losing since morning until now. His eyes were fixed on the mahjong table with a gloomy look on his face, looking a bit lonely and empty.

"It's your turn, Lai San!" The Army soldier kicked him, "What's wrong with you today?"

Lai San pulled out a mahjong tile and threw it out, "Five...Uncle, you won't understand even if I tell you."

"How can I understand if you don't tell me?!" Lu Jun played his cards quickly, "It's because of love, right?"

Lai San's cloudy eyes gradually became clear. "How did you know?"

Mu Daming next to him played a card, "Is it difficult to guess? Everyone knows that you follow Liu Mei around every day..."

Lu Jun touched all the cards from beginning to end and kissed them like he was coaxing a child, "That's right! She's already engaged, so forget about it..."

Lai San collapsed. "But I still can't accept it. What's so good about that guy? He's like a stick. What does Liu Mei like about him? I'm all muscle..."

In fact, everyone in the village knew that Liu Mei looked down on him mainly because he had no money. He was a poor man. No matter how good-looking he was, he was useless. Mu Daming didn't want to poke his feelings anymore.

"Who told you not to put in your best effort when you were chasing her? If you had done what you wanted, what would that guy have to do with you? It's too late now, forget it!"

Lai San's hand froze as he touched the mahjong. "It's already been done..."

"Second Uncle!" Lu Jun turned to the side and saw Liang Jingxuan and Lu Sui.

"I'll be right there. I'll be back after this round!"

Liang Jingxuan trotted behind him and grabbed his neck, "You always say you'll play once, but you always play three times. Auntie is still waiting for us to eat at home~"

The army coaxed him while playing cards, "This time it's really just one hand! If you win, I'll buy you some dwarf bubble gum!"

Lu Sui stood beside him, his tall shadow blocking half of the mahjong table, his eyes as deep as two dark pools, Lu Jun didn't even dare to say anything, "Really just one hand!"

Mu Daming took pleasure in the misfortune, "Soldier, oh soldier, this day will come to you too!"

The Army kicked him from under the table. "Go away! Play your cards now!"

Mu Daming laughed and scolded, "You old fool, sixty thousand!"

"Sixty thousand...wait wait wait..." Lu Jun pushed the cards, "I have all one set! Triple it, give me money, give me money!!!" When the people in the mahjong room heard that all of them had all one set, they came to join in the fun. Lu Sui leaned over to take a look, there was no emotion in his dark eyes, he hugged Liang Jingxuan and protected him in his arms.

Mu Daming carefully checked it twice and said, "They are all the same color... You are so lucky today..."

Lu Jun took the money and counted it three times, "You can be jealous and resentful! I'm leaving, we'll fight again tomorrow!" He left some money for cigarettes and gave the rest to Liang Jingxuan, "Take it, buy whatever you want!"

"Okay~" Liang Jingxuan dragged Lu Sui to the canteen next door.

Mu Daming was unlucky and was about to go home. He glanced at the place where Lu Jun had just sat and shouted at the top of his voice, "Soldier! You left something behind!"

The Army turned back and said, "Oh, yes! The drug that attracts piglets!"

Mu Daming picked it up and handed it to him, "To attract piglets... Your old sow, do you still need this?"

"The boars that pig trader brought in are all ugly. My old sow doesn't like them!"

The army soldier picked up the bag and tore a big hole in it. "Damn it, these unscrupulous merchants sold me such a high price, and the bag is so rubbish! I'm leaving, I don't want to talk to you anymore!"

Mu Damin teased, "Once you put this bag of redemption water in, you can't do anything about it! If you don't like it, you can only stand against the wall and suffer!"

"Hey, you! What are you talking about? Aren't you ashamed?" Lu Jun put his hands behind his back and went to the next door convenience store.

Lai San sat in his seat, a strange light flashing across his dark eyes.

Liang Jingxuan bought two big bags of dwarf bubble gum, squatted on the ground and tore off the sticker of the bubble gum, wet it with water and stuck it on the back of his hand, slapped it hard twice, peeled off the film, and the dwarf was printed on the back of his hand.

"Honey, do you want it?"

Lu Sui stared at the white and tender hand with dark eyes, grabbed it in her palm, and rubbed it twice with her thumb. Liang Jingxuan pulled his hand back abruptly, "No! Don't rub it off... Bad husband! Bad husband..."

Lu Sui raised his lips with a vicious expression, "If you can't get rid of it, don't come to me crying!"

The sticker can only last for about a day. It starts to turn black the next day and cannot be washed off. It hurts if you rub it hard. Liang Jingxuan has to rub off a layer of skin every time, but once the scar heals, she forgets the pain.

Liang Jingxuan grabbed his thigh and stood up, "No... I won't cry~ I'm so old..."

Before he could finish his words his lips were bitten harshly, and his whole body was held in Lu Sui's arms, unable to move. He cried out in pain, but this only attracted even more fierce biting from the man.

Someone came out of the canteen, and Lu Sui mercifully let him go, "If you mess with me again..."

"I know..." Liang Jingxuan hugged his arm and whispered, "Isn't it just about having a baby? I told you I'm afraid~"

Lu Sui pinched his waist and said, "You make it sound like I forced you!"

Liang Jingxuan buried his head in his hot chest, poking his chest muscles with his fingers from time to time, "I didn't say I won't let you force me..."

Lu Sui, "..."

"Then why did you run away when I took off your pants last night?"

Liang Jingxuan raised his confused eyes, "Really? I don't remember..."

Lu Sui bit his back teeth and laughed softly, "I don't remember... I really don't remember!"

Liang Jingxuan shrank back, "I'm going to see what my second uncle is buying..."

Before he could finish his words, he ran into the canteen.

Lu Sui narrowed his eyes slightly, with a chill in his eyes, "Too much fun!"

After buying cigarettes, Lu Jun remembered that he seemed to have forgotten to buy sugar, "Give me another two pounds of sugar!" The sugar was weighed and wrapped in newspaper. Lu Jun looked at the piglet-attracting medicine in his hand and asked the boss for two more newspapers to wrap them up. He put one in his left pocket and the other in his right pocket.

"Let's go, Xuanbao, let's go home!"

"good!"

Liang Jingxuan trotted to Lu Sui's back, stood up, and stretched out her hands to hook his neck, "Hubby, I want to carry you!"

Lu Sui pursed her lips, her sinister eyes were filled with lust, and she elbowed him away, "Go on your own!"

"No~" Liang Jingxuan trotted after him, "Hubby, I want to carry you~"

Lu Sui had a cold face and pretended not to hear. Liang Jingxuan grabbed his arm aggrievedly, "Husband~" Lu Sui shook his hand off, and he went to the other side.

"Husband~"

Lu Jun lit a cigarette and held it in his mouth and walked very slowly. When he returned, Song Huizi kept staring at him. A gust of wind blew over, and Liang Jingxuan covered his mouth and nose, "Second Uncle, you are smoking again!"

The army used to be afraid of Song Huizi, but now they have another person to worry about, Liang Jingxuan, telling them off. "Just smoke one!"

Liang Jingxuan snorted, "You always say that, right, husband?"

Lu Sui glanced at him calmly and said stiffly, "Smoke less..."

In the past, he would have squeezed him out, but today, the army was not used to it and felt itchy. "Got it..."

The sky was dotted with stars and the ground was filled with the croaking of frogs. The army got Yu Zeying drunk again. He had broken his face the last time he went back, so Song Huizi didn't let him go back this time. She made a clean bed for him to spend the night on.

Lu Sui fetched a basin of hot water to wipe his face. Yu Zeying's bloodshot eyes were misty. "Ah Sui... I miss my brother... Why is he pretending like this? He's pretending, but he doesn't even want to see me again before he dies!"

Lu Sui didn't know how to comfort him. He didn't know what kind of person Yu Zehui was, but he hated him in his heart. He was one of the people who sent Liang Jingxuan to Zhao Chongming.

He is not a saint. When Liang Jingxuan was kidnapped as a toy, he didn't believe anyone, including Yu Zeying...

But Yu Zeying was innocent, and he had done so much for him. He was suffering no less than him. He could not cause a quarrel between the brothers, and the grudges gradually disappeared.

"How about... go visit him tomorrow in my name and trick him out!"

Yu Zeying sat up on the bed, his face covered with tears. He clenched his right hand, trying his best to suppress the spasm in his fingers, and cried, "Can you make it?"

"It's okay, just go to sleep, I'll accompany you to the prison tomorrow morning. Don't cry..." Lu Sui used to be most afraid of him crying, and now there's Liang Jingxuan.

Yu Zeying wiped his face with a hot towel and said proudly, "I didn't! It's sweat..."

Lu Sui was too lazy to expose him, so he snatched the hot towel from his hand, threw it into the basin, and walked away with it. When he reached the door, he said, "You are the most stubborn person..."

Yu Zeying responded sarcastically, "It's you! Bathing brother~"

Lu Sui's temples were throbbing, and the veins on the back of his hands were bulging. He wanted to put the basin on his head, but he remembered that Song Huizi was still at home, so he gritted his teeth and endured it, "You wait for me tomorrow!"

Back in the room, Liang Jingxuan was playing with the little rabbit on the bed with her bare bottom, her fair and delicate skin was pink from the hot water. Lu Sui's eyes were dark, and she picked up the little rabbit pajamas at the end of the bed angrily, "Why did you take off your pajamas again!"

Liang Jingxuan didn't want to sleep in pajamas, so she rolled into bed with the little rabbit in her arms, "It's hot! I just took a shower, it's hot, I don't want to wear it~"

Lu Sui calmed down his surging emotions, sat down beside the bed, and lowered his voice, "Put on your pajamas, I'll take you to the market tomorrow and buy you a truckload of Jinwei! And spicy noodles!"

Liang Jingxuan sat up with a straight back, "I'll wear it!" Lu Sui pulled his legs to the bed and put it on him skillfully. Liang Jingxuan drooled and poked his hard biceps, "Husband~ You are a good husband~"

Lu Sui's eyes dimmed, "Do you want to eat chicken legs?"

Liang Jingxuan licked his lips and nodded heavily, "Yes!"

"Dream on!" Lu Sui restrained his waist and fell on the bed. He freed one hand to pick up the jumping little rabbit and threw it off the bed. He pulled up the bright red quilt and covered the two of them. "Go to sleep!"

Liang Jingxuan pulled down the quilt, "I want to eat~"

Lu Sui closed his eyes and said indifferently, "No!"

Liang Jingxuan stopped talking. There was a rustling sound coming from the bulging quilt. Lu Sui frowned. His arms were wet. He opened his eyes and saw Liang Jingxuan holding his arm and chewing it...

Liang Jingxuan let go of his arm and poked his palm, "Honey, I'm hungry~"

Lu Sui, "..."

Once in prison, everything around him seemed to be covered by a black veil. Yu Zeying sat restlessly on the cold bench, "Do you think my brother... would he not want to see you? I'm worried that he might guess it was me..."

Lu Sui's eyes were sharp, "I think you are too nervous!"

Yu Zeying did not refute this time and admitted, "A little bit..."

In the dark cell, Yu Zehui leaned against the wall, looking through the narrow window at the bleak lights on the corridor outside, with a hazy mist in his narrow eyes.

A series of footsteps came closer and closer, and stopped in front of the rusty iron gate. "Yu Zehui, someone is visiting!"

Yu Zehui's eyes suddenly darkened, his face full of vigilance, "Who?"

The prison guard opened the iron gate, "Lu Sui!"

Yu Zehui lowered his head and let out a hoarse laugh, "Idiot..."

He pulled the chains on his body and stood up. His legs were numb from sitting for so long. He had walked this dim corridor countless times.

The iron chains on his feet restricted his every step, but he was used to it because from the moment he was born, he had invisible shackles and chains on his hands and feet.

The light at the end of the corridor was very dim, and his outline was almost invisible. He stood at the door, his thin hand grasping the door handle, feeling more uneasy than ever before. He closed his eyes and pushed the door open with force, and dazzling light broke in.

"Brother!" Yu Zeying stood up excitedly, holding onto the iron window, tears welling up in his eyes, "Brother!!!"

Yu Zehui turned his back cruelly and said in a trembling voice, "I don't want to see him, I want to go back!"

Yu Zeying grabbed the iron window and burst into tears, "Brother! Don't go, you don't have to say anything, just let me see you, brother... just let me see you... I beg you..."

Yu Zehui felt as if there was a sharp knife in his chest, slashing his heart again and again. He raised his head, his eyes were cloudy, and a faint smile hung on the corner of his lips. "Idiot, what's so good about it? Get out, I don't want to see you!"

Yu Zeying frantically slapped the glass and iron window that separated them, "Brother... I beg you, I know you ignored me when you were a child because it was for my own good... I know, I know everything, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm useless, please let me see you..."

Yu Zehui is not made of stone, so how could he not want to see him? But now he can't see him, and every time they meet, every word they say may be maliciously misinterpreted by someone with ulterior motives.

There are too many people who want them to die. He can die, but Yu Zeying cannot!

"Go away! Don't come again. You don't have to collect the bodies for me. Someone will help me..." Yu Zehui opened the iron gate and walked resolutely into the dark and damp corridor.

Yu Zeying slammed the iron window again and again, cracking the window glass and cutting his palm. Blood dripped down. He felt no pain, only despair.

"Brother!!! Don't leave, wait for me, I will definitely find a way, brother! Brother, don't leave, let me see you again! Brother!!!"
