Chapter 171 Lu Chixu cried
Lu Shiman slept until dark.
The room was immersed in thick darkness, which made her feel abandoned by the whole world.
Lying in the darkness, Lu Shiman covered his eyes with his forearm, feeling guilty for not being able to suppress his emotions.
Her breathing gradually became heavier, and she felt something was wrong with her.
The darkness seemed to have real weight, pressing her to the point where she could hardly breathe while simultaneously devouring her disguised shell.
The real, horrible, and unseen side of her is exposed bloodily.
This made Lu Shiman feel very insecure.
Footsteps sounded, getting closer and closer.
The light is turned on.
The warm-colored wall lamps fill the room with warm colors.
Lu Shiman put down his arms, turned over and curled himself up in the quilt.
She cried in front of Ji Linshen again, and she felt very embarrassed.
Ji Linshen looked at her curled up in the quilt, and a fine and dense pain spread in his chest.
The mattress sank slightly, and a cold body temperature enveloped me from behind.
Ji Linshen's slender fingers hovered above her trembling shoulder blades, pausing for a moment before gently dropping them.
She curled up reflexively, her knees almost touching her chest, and the silk quilt was wrinkled into ripples with her violent breathing.
"Are you a mantis shrimp? You curl up when you are touched." Ji Linshen said softly, pressing his chest against her back.
Lu Shiman swallowed his saliva, swallowing all the unbearable emotions along with it.
"Mantis shrimp not only can curl up, but also..." Lu Shiman stretched his body and leaned back hard: "...Stand up like this."
The back of his head slammed into Ji Linshen's chin, and as he pushed his legs back, he kicked Ji Linshen's legs hard.
"Hiss~" Lu Shiman rubbed the back of his head, turned over and hugged Ji Linshen, and started to turn the tables.
"You hit my head with your chin. Apologize to the back of my head." Lu Shiman tilted his head back and lightly poked his chin.
"I'm sorry, my chin is not sensible." Ji Linshen laughed dumbly. While apologizing honestly, he did not forget to rub the back of her head.
Lu Shiman bit him through the fabric of his shirt.
"Lu Shiman!" Ji Linshen couldn't stand her behavior and his lower abdomen tightened.
Letting go of him, Lu Shiman raised his head and smiled: "I'm hungry, let me eat a bite first."
Pushing her away, Ji Linshen got out of bed as quickly as possible: "Get up and wash up. I asked the kitchen to make some food you like."
Lu Shiman was amused by his appearance: "I just took a bite, and you bit me all day long, but I didn't react like you."
Ji Lin was stunned, looking at Lu Shiman with complicated eyes. After hesitating for a long time, he asked, "Have you told this to other people?"
Lu Shiman shook his head: "Not yet, if you need me, I can..."
"No, no, you are not allowed to say this in front of others, do you hear me?" Ji Lin warned.
Lu Shiman nodded: "My brother and Qin Jiaojiao are not outsiders, right?"
"Except for me, everyone else is an outsider in this kind of matter."
Ji Lin didn't dare to think about the consequences if these vicious words were heard by the four brothers of the Lu family.
He will never be able to step into the Lu family's gate in his lifetime.
......
Lu Family Villa,
Smoke slowly rose under the chandelier. Lu Chixu lowered his eyes and looked at the cigarette butts piled up in the ashtray, his left hand unconsciously stroking the leather texture of the sofa armrest.
'I suspect she has a mental illness.'
Ji Linshen's calm statements kept exploding in his ears. Lu Chixu was suddenly choked by the smoke and arched his back and coughed, his knuckles whitening as he gripped the fabric of his suit pants.
Leaning back on the sofa and looking at the ceiling, Lu Chixu's eyes turned a little red.
They are such fucking failures as brothers.
I heard from other people that my sister has a problem.
There were heavy footsteps coming from the door, and Lu Yannan stepped into the entrance hall wrapped in cold air.
He frowned as he looked at the cigarette smell in the room: "Lu Chixu, put out your cigarette."
The ashtray made a harsh scraping sound as it was pushed across the glass coffee table.
Lu Yannan loosened his tie, looking unhappy: "I told you not to smoke, my sister doesn't like it."
When Lu Chixu looked up, his lower eyelids were unnaturally red. He tried to put out the cigarette in the ashtray, but because of his shaking hands, half of the ash spilled on the table.
"Brother." The voice seemed to be squeezed out from the depths of his throat, and his Adam's apple rolled heavily again.
Seeing his red eyes, Lu Yannan's heart tightened and he took two steps forward.
"What happened?"
Lu Yannan's caring voice instantly broke Lu Chixu's suppressed emotions.
Tears quickly gathered and fell silently.
His hand holding the cigarette was shaking, his eyes were red, and tears were falling.
Lu Yannan clamped Lu Chixu's trembling wrist and pressed his thumb on the place where his pulse was beating wildly: "Look at me."
The commanding tone suddenly became hoarse when it touched the water stain on his brother's chin, and his Adam's apple rolled twice: "Speak, Xiaoxu."
"Lu Shiman..." Lu Yannan's temples jumped as he sobbed with a nasal tremor: "She's sick."
There was a loud bang at the door.
Lu Qiyun's hand knocked over the vase in the entrance hall.
Lu Jianheng dressed neatly and prepared to go out, but he was also stunned when he stood at the stairs.
"Speak." Lu Qiyun quickened his pace, walked to his second brother, and reached out to grab his collar.
Lu Jianheng's heart was pounding, and in an instant, many images appeared in his mind.
Could it be that Lu Shiman was diagnosed with some terminal illness?
Lu Chixu didn't expect her two younger brothers to appear, and she wiped away her tears.
Lu Jianheng walked down the stairs and sat down on the sofa opposite Lu Chixu: "Second brother, explain clearly and don't scare us."
Lu Chixu was about to speak when his cell phone rang.
He cleared his throat and answered the phone: "Hello."
On the other end of the phone, Lu Shiman's voice was sweet and flattering: "Second brother, the weather is nice today~"
"Hmm." Hearing her voice, Lu Chixu's nose felt sore again.
"Well, I didn't mean to stand you up. You won't blame me, right?" Lu Shiman said, holding the receiver farther away.
She could predict her second brother's reaction and first roared, "Lu Shiman!"
Then he started scolding her and finally hung up the phone angrily.
Lu Shiman was very familiar with his second brother's reaction.
But the expected roar did not come, and Lu Chixu's tone was gentle: "Well, no, it's okay."
Lu Shiman hung up the phone in a hurry, his heart pounding.
Ji Linshen brought out some juice for her. Seeing that she was in a daze, he rubbed her head and asked, "Aren't you going to apologize to your second brother?"
She put down her phone, felt a chill down her spine, swallowed nervously, and looked up at Ji Linshen.
"Ji Linshen, I suspect that the phone call I just made went to the underworld." Lu Shiman felt scared when she thought of Lu Chixu's abnormality just now.
"It's so scary. My second brother is either possessed by a ghost or he is possessed by a ghost."
"It's scarier than seeing all these people playing with their shit in the street."
