Chapter 104 Resignation
Lips pressed tightly against each other.
From the initial coolness, it became hot.
Ji Min held the boy's waist with one hand and held the wheelchair armrest with the other hand.
His muscles were tense and stiff like a sculpture.
He let the boy eagerly stick to and rub against his lips.
Ji Min wanted to say, "Stop, you are not in the right state."
He wanted to say, "Take care of your body first, and then we can talk about other things."
But being stiff and motionless was his greatest restraint.
He could even clearly feel that all his rationality and considerations were slowly disintegrating.
Finally, the boy who was rubbing against his lips, because he had not received a response,
was anxious and bit it lightly.
Along with the pain, there was a moment of warm and soft wetness.
Ji Min's eyes suddenly closed.
All the restraint collapsed.
He reached out and pressed the back of the boy's head, his fingers digging into the soft and fluffy hair, and pressed down hard.
The boy, who had been kneeling on his knees, looking down on him, suddenly sat down.
Helplessly sitting astride him, he was pushed back by the man who suddenly leaned forward.
The illusion of calm was torn apart, and the heavy and eager breathing hit the boy's nose.
The lips that were originally quietly pressed against each other were bitten red.
But it was not enough.
The man entered the room step by step, conquering the city and not even letting go of the air in the chest.
The person who took the initiative before finally began to struggle and push back.
But he was firmly pressed on the knees of the person in front of him, with no way to avoid it.
In a heart-wrenching desire,
Ji Min vaguely recalled the second time he saw Lu Ran.
It was in the other twin building. It
was the Zhang family who asked him to discuss business.
The Zhang family lit some random incense in the prepared private room.
Ji Min was very sensitive to these things. Without waiting for the Zhang family to send someone over, he left the private room and went to the bathroom to hide.
The effect of the incense was unbearable.
Ji Min finally suppressed the instinctive irritability.
But the bathroom door opened.
Lu Ran walked in.
The boy took off his coat as soon as he entered the room.
He lifted the hem of the T-shirt inside, revealing a small section of his beautiful waist.
He reached out to unbutton his jeans.
He unbuttoned one and pinched the zipper with his fingers.
Ji Min recognized the person.
He recognized it as the boy who stood calmly in front of the sports car and was helped by him once.
But he misunderstood the boy's purpose.
He looked cold and calm, like a lake without ripples.
Only Ji Min knew that the impulse under the strong pressure was rising again.
But the boy still looked at him with those overly well-behaved eyes and asked him: "Do you need help?"
What kind of help.
What kind of help?
Ji Min closed his eyes, blocking his sight, and said in a cold tone: "Get out." His
voice was much hoarse than usual.
But the boy had the courage to say: "No."
Even though Ji Min always regarded himself as an elder.
Even though he always cared for Lu Ran.
But even if Ji Min didn't want to admit it, that desire had been buried from the beginning.
Like a secret seed, hidden in the rugged and dry cracks of the stone.
But at some inadvertent moments, in the dim night, it grew uncontrollably.
So Ji Min never went to Lu Ran's room at night.
But he "tricked" him back to his own nest, only deceiving himself to set up a solid and empty boundary.
Ji Min warned himself to be a qualified protector.
He wanted to give the boy all the things he lacked.
So he put on the hat of an elder in a high-sounding manner.
But only Ji Min knew.
He was unwilling.
He wanted more and more. He
wanted to possess and want to lock the person completely by his side.
He held the brightest light in his life.
As a protector, he tried to guard against himself who was trying to monitor the thief.
Until now.
Ji Min still despised his own meanness.
What elder?
It was just a despicable excuse for him to try to get close to the boy.
Maybe from the beginning, he wanted more than that.
After a long time.
Ji Min finally let go of the person in front of him.
It's not accurate to say he let go.
His arms still held the person tightly.
Just gave the person a little space to breathe.
"Do you still doubt my existence?" Ji Min asked.
Lu Ran took a quick breath.
His eyes were filled with a layer of watery light caused by lack of oxygen.
Hearing this, he answered irrelevantly: "I, my tongue hurts."
"Where does it hurt? Let me see."
Ji Min's voice was hoarse.
He stroked Lu Ran's chin with his thumb, but avoided his swollen lips.
The man's tone was too light, too gentle.
It sounded the same as the worried tone he used to sound every day.
The danger was completely hidden.
Lu Ran subconsciously became attached, and opened his mouth obediently to show the culprit the painful root of his tongue.
Ji Min's eyes darkened.
He tightened his fingers that were pinching the boy's chin, and lowered his head to kiss him again.
Until there was a knock on the ward door.
Ji Min frowned and turned around to see the embarrassed doctor and nurse.
The doctor said embarrassedly: "I think he should wake up now, and I just wrote out the examination form."
"I don't want the examination, I can be discharged now."
Lu Ran heard this and was about to jump to the ground barefoot.
Halfway through the jump, he was pulled back.
"Let's go over now." Ji Min said.
Ji Min did not let the person go.
He just held the boy in his arms and controlled the wheelchair remotely through the hospital corridors.
Lu Ran nestled on his lap with his head buried low.
When they arrived at a checkpoint, he jumped down, and when he was out of the checkpoint, he returned to Ji Min's arms unconsciously.
"Cold?"
Ji Min reached out and gently touched the boy's ear between his hair.
Lu Ran shook his head.
"I don't want to look at the ceiling of the hospital."
Halfway through his words, he pursed his lips, which were not very comfortable. He
felt even more uncomfortable after pursing his lips.
"Yeah." Ji Min responded, raised his hand to cover his eyes, "Then don't look."
After walking for a while,
Lu Ran changed his posture and nestled.
He frowned and said, "Boss, your belt is too hard, it hurts me."
"...Sorry."
Ji Min said softly.
He changed his posture slightly and said, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Lu Ran nodded, "Yeah."
Seeing that Lu Ran hated the hospital so much, Ji Min didn't let him stay any longer.
After the examination, he sent him outside and went in to get the examination report.
To Ji Min's surprise, Lu Ran was in good health.
He didn't have any hidden injuries that would cause him pain.
After reading the report, the doctor said to Ji Min, "Looking at the symptoms, although the possibility of neurological pain cannot be completely ruled out, I am more inclined to psychological pain."
"Mr. Ji should have heard of phantom pain." said the doctor.
Ji Min frowned.
"But doesn't this only happen to amputees?" he asked.
The doctor shook his head:
"There are many psychological factors for pain. The pain that normal people try to avoid is a comfort to some special patients."
The doctor said something else, and then provided Ji Min with some information.
Ji Min returned to the car, but found that the person who was half dead in the hospital just now had recovered and was lively again.
After returning home, he even took Da Huang out for a walk for an hour without hesitation.
In the evening, Ji Min received news from the police.
The driver was found to have drunk too much.
The driver's relatives and friends said that this person usually has a habit of alcoholism.
This investigation can only end with an accident caused by drunk driving.
When Ji Min heard this result, his expression was very calm.
He didn't say much, just asked housekeeper Chen to check the driver's family's whereabouts.
That night, Shen Xingyu returned home.
He stood in the yard for a while, then got up and went to Shen Hongyuan's study.
As soon as he opened the door, he said, "Lu Ran was in a car accident."
Shen Hongyuan was shocked and asked hurriedly, "What happened? How is he now?"
"You didn't even inform the family." Shen Hongyuan complained subconsciously, "Are there any media around taking pictures? You have to pay attention to public relations. At this juncture, don't make a fuss."
Shen Xingyu carefully observed Shen Hongyuan's expression for a while, and then slowly, slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Dad, he's fine, he temporarily avoided it." Shen Xingyu said.
Shen Hongyuan patted his chest: "It's okay."
"Yeah." Shen Xingyu nodded.
The father and son didn't have much to talk about.
He turned around and was about to leave the study.
When he was about to step out of the door, he turned his head to look at Shen Hongyuan and said in an almost promising tone:
"Dad, Shen will get better."
Shen Hongyuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, okay."
After deciding to have the surgery as soon as possible, Ji Min got busy.
He was busy until the early morning before going to bed, so he was inevitably a little angry the next day.
When he arrived at the restaurant, he looked upstairs again.
Seeing this, Butler Chen said: "Young Master Lu Ran has gone to school."
"He got up so early today?" Ji Min frowned.
"Well, he said he slept too much yesterday and is not sleepy." Butler Chen said.
Ji Min paused, then said ambiguously, "Forget it."
Lu Ran did not mention the kiss in the ward that day.
Ji Min did not ask again.
The right to choose is always in Lu Ran's hands.
Always.
If Lu Ran wants him to step back, he will step back.
If he is allowed to step forward, he will step forward.
Besides...
the operation is imminent.
What if he cannot get off the operating table...
Lu Ran is indeed busy.
Because the day after the car accident was the midterm exam for their major, and the midterm exam counted for credits.
He had been busy for half a semester and couldn't let it all go to waste.
On the last day of the midterm exam, he finished the last exam in the morning.
There were no classes at noon and in the afternoon. However
, Lu Ran didn't come back until the afternoon.
Ji Min didn't go to the company, but held a meeting with Ji's management team in the study at home.
Lu Ran waited for a while before the door of the study opened.
A group of executives came out.
After greeting Lu Ran, they chatted in groups of three or two and walked out of the front door of Ji's house.
Lu Ran poked his head into the study.
The door of the study was not closed.
Lu Ran lowered his head to check the things he brought in his hands before he took the initiative to walk into Ji Min's study.
Ji Min was still sitting behind his desk.
When the man was working, he had an aura of keeping strangers away.
When he heard the voice, he thought that the person who had left before had objections to the content of the meeting.
He looked over and saw Lu Ran, and was stunned for a moment.
"Are you back?" Ji Min raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows.
He hurriedly glanced at the time again and said:
"Are you hungry? You have been busy for a long time. Dinner should be ready in the kitchen..."
Lu Ran stared at the traces of fatigue between his eyebrows for a while.
Then, he pulled out the chair in front of his desk and sat down opposite Ji Min.
The boy looked serious, and he was holding a stack of documents in his hands, which surprised Ji Min.
Soon, Ji Min saw Lu Ran take out an envelope and push it towards him.
He said seriously: "This is my resignation."
His fingers touched the envelope and looked at the words "Resignation" written on it.
Ji Min felt as if a bucket of cold water was poured over his head.
The busy afterglow of the work just now faded away.
The man moved his lips and said in vain: "Resignation? Why resign?"
But these were not what he wanted to ask.
After asking, he hurriedly replied: "I disagree. Are you dissatisfied with the salary, or the accommodation? Or did I do it..."
Lu Ran, who was sitting opposite, did not expect him to reply like this, and was also stunned. After
being stunned for a long time, the young man frowned in distress and thought for a long time.
Asked him: "But...if you don't quit, how can you be my boyfriend? I don't have office romances."
Ji Min was stunned.
Lu Ran squinted at him with dissatisfaction: "And we have kissed! How can we not be in love?"
Boyfriend, in love.
Stunned for a long while.
Ji Min slowly withdrew his body that was leaning forward because of his excessive eagerness.
"Cough."
The man coughed lightly and slowly retracted his firm and unquestionable refusal just now.
He said very unpromisingly:
"Quitting... is not impossible."
