Chapter 66 Chapter 66 "What are you going to do?" Cheng Yi called...
After soaking in the hot spring, it was already afternoon. The air smells of sunshine and the trees sway gently in the breeze.
The two couples continued to visit the resort. As we walked, we came to a commercial square with pedestrian streets on both sides. It was very lively with people coming and going.
Lu Lingyi insisted on having afternoon tea, so the four of them found a tea restaurant and sat down together.
"I'm going to the bathroom first." Cheng Yi said.
Lu Yu watched him leave until his back turned into the backyard of the tea restaurant and disappeared.
Lu Lingyi sipped the lemonade and said, "Tsk, Wife-Watching Rock, that's enough. I'm just going to the bathroom, not to a wolf's den."
He Qi also smiled and said, "Mr. Lu really cares about his partner. He is a role model for us and worth learning from."
Lu Yu turned his gaze back, obviously not listening to what they were saying. After a moment of silence, he stood up and said, "You guys order first. I'm going to the bathroom too."
Lu Lingyi shook his head helplessly and said to He Qi, "He is really worried that his wife will get into trouble in the toilet. Come on, let's order a rose and albizzia for them both."
Cheng Yi washed his face in the bathroom and tidied his hair which was a little messy due to the wind. At this time, someone came out from the cubicle behind him, stood behind him for a moment, and suddenly came over and grabbed his arm.
Cheng Yi was startled, and then he heard the other party say to him: "You are Cheng Xiaoyong's lackey!"
"..." Cheng Yi's breathing stagnated, and he looked at the face in the mirror and remembered.
The other party was the man in black suit who had blocked his elder brother on the street to collect debts.
"Where is Cheng Xiaoyong? When will he pay me back?" the man in the black suit asked him fiercely, "He said it would be the end of September, but it's already October! He's gone missing again. Are you kidding us?"
Cheng Yi's arm was so painful from being gripped by him, his brows slightly wrinkled, no way, his elder brother hasn't paid off the 80 million yet? He had called to inquire before, and his elder brother said that it had been settled.
"Let go first. I don't know." He managed to stay calm, his mind quickly searching for excuses, "If you want money, go find Cheng Xiaoyong. If you want me, I can't contact him either."
"Aren't you his lackey?" The man in the black suit gritted his teeth and still pulled his arm, refusing to let go.
"Nonsense, who is the lackey!" Cheng Yi said seriously, and pointed at the hand of the man in the black suit, "If you don't let go, I'll call for help."
As soon as he finished speaking, a tall figure appeared at the door. The next second, the man in the black suit was picked up and thrown aside. Lu Yu stood in front of Cheng Yi, casting a shadow.
"Why are you bothering him?" he asked the man in the black suit sternly.
The man in the black suit staggered two steps before he stood firm. He looked at the tall man and became scared for a second. He turned around and glared at Cheng Yi, then turned around and walked away cursing.
Cheng Yi blinked his big eyes and his heart beat in his throat. Who was Lu Yu? Did he hear his conversation with the man in black suit? There won't be another misunderstanding.
"Do you know him?" Lu Yu's voice floated into his ears, bringing his thoughts back.
Cheng Yi shook his eyelashes and whispered, "I don't know him. He...may have recognized the wrong person."
"Did he mistake you for someone else?" Lu Yu asked again.
"Yeah, yeah, someone I don't know." Cheng Yi said, looking away.
Lu Yu looked at him for a few seconds, said nothing more, took his hand and walked out of the bathroom.
Just now he vaguely heard a name "Cheng Xiaoyong".
But since Cheng Yi said this, it might be that he heard it wrong.
He believed in Cheng Yi's feelings for him, and it was impossible for Cheng Yi to continue to have any contact with her ex-boyfriend Cheng Xiaoyong.
After the four of them finished their afternoon tea, the two couples parted ways again.
Lu Lingyi and He Qi went to see a movie, and Cheng Yi became very interested in the sightseeing bicycles in the square.
The bicycles have colorful graffiti on their bodies, comfortable seats, and handlebars decorated with flowers. There are couple's and single-person models.
"Let's ride around the scenic area," he pulled Lu Yu's sleeve, "four pedals, it's fun."
As soon as he finished speaking, the last couple car was picked up by an elderly couple.
“……”Cheng Yi.
Lu Yu looked at him, then looked at the few remaining single-person sightseeing bicycles in the square.
"Single seats are good too," he said. "You sit in the back seat, so you don't have to exert any effort. Just enjoy it."
Cheng Yi: “.”
Why do I feel this is a bit weird?
Although the words are ambiguous, it seems quite good to think that you can enjoy the scenery comfortably without any effort.
Cheng Yi ran over excitedly to pick a car. I picked a pure white one with bright red maple leaves and light pink flowers wrapped around the handlebars, giving it a full sense of pure desire.
"Thank you for your hard work," he jumped onto the saddle, thought for a moment, and patted Lu Yu's back, "If you don't have enough energy, let me ride. I just had a kidney massage, so I have plenty of energy!"
"Well, keep it." Lu Yu curled his lips and set off slowly. "I'm not exhausted, so you don't have to worry."
The car drove along the commercial street into the botanical garden and moved slowly along the park's path. The sunlight shone through the gaps in the trees overhead onto our faces, warm and soft, like the caressing arms of a lover.
The path was covered with a thin layer of fallen leaves, with red and yellow leaves intertwined, like an oil painting given by nature to this season. The air was filled with the fragrance of flowers, and a breath of it was like drinking sweet honey.
Cheng Yi tilted his head slightly, closed his eyes, and enjoyed the sunshine, air, fallen leaves, and the fragrance of flowers, letting the wind ruffle his hair and caress his face.
Suddenly I felt that all this was really beautiful.
Autumn is probably a season suitable for hugs.
These words flashed through Cheng Yi's mind, and he couldn't help but stretch out his arms and gently put them around Lu Yu's waist. I slowly put my cheek close to his and smelled his clean white T-shirt. It smelled like gardenia, very refreshing.
Lu Yu felt the sudden warmth behind him and his body tensed slightly. He looked down and saw the young man's hand clasped on his waist, his fingertips slightly retracted, and the warmth slowly flowed through him.
His heart beat faster. He held the handlebar with one hand and slowly loosened his grip with the other hand to grasp Cheng Yi's wrist which was around his waist, with their palms touching and their fingers tightly clasped.
Cheng Yi's fingertips trembled slightly, and he felt the warmth of Lu Yu's palm passing through his skin, and his heart was beating violently.
"Lu Yu," Cheng Yi rested his chin on the man's back and called him softly, "What would you think if I told you that I still have a secret?"
Lu Yu slowed down his bike and didn't answer immediately. The wheels rolled over the fallen leaves on the ground, making a rustling sound.
After a while, Cheng Yi heard Lu Yu's answer amid the rustling sound.
He said: "If you are willing to tell me, I will be very happy. If not, I will not ask. In short, as long as you are happy, being with me, I don't want you to have any pressure."
The low-pitched and gentle voice blended into the air with the scent of flowers, slowly spreading, slowly fermenting, and also blending into Cheng Yi's heart.
He pursed his lips slightly, his handsome eyebrows curved into a little crescent, and his fingertips hooked with the other's fingertips, conveying his warmth.
Everything around them seemed to become blurry, leaving only the two of them. The sun shone overhead, warm and gentle, stretching their shadows long and intimate.
"Then when we get home, I'll tell you a secret of mine," he said.
Lu Yu squeezed his hand, raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Okay."
After riding around, they returned to the small square and returned the sightseeing bike. Lu Yu received a WeChat message from Lu Lingyi, saying that there were no good movies, so they went back to the room to rest first.
Cheng Yi saw Lu Yu frowning and sent a voice message to his brother: "He Qi will go back to his room with you to rest? Doesn't he have his own room?"
puff! Cheng Yi smiled.
"Don't worry too much, daddy." He joked, "Lu Lingyi is nineteen, not nine. And they just went back to their room to rest and relax."
Lu Yu lowered his eyes and pursed his lips: "I don't want him to get hurt emotionally again. He has never felt safe since he was a child. Liang Yu can make him give up his true heart just by cooking a few meals..."
Lu Yu didn't say anything else. Cheng Yi looked at him, approached him, and gently pulled his fingertips.
It is rare to hear Lu Yu talk about private family matters. After listening to him now, I feel pity and admiration at the same time.
Pity is for Lu Lingyi, and admiration is for Lu Yu.
With his original family broken, Lu Yu had to come through this alone, bearing the loneliness and also having to take care of his younger brother's body and mind.
"You're a great daddy." He patted the other person's shoulder and continued joking.
Lu Yushu relaxed his brows, raised his arm, grasped his hand, and pulled him into his arms.
"Don't call me daddy." he whispered.
Cheng Yi felt the warmth on his head: "Why?"
"You know, it makes me daydream." Lu Yu said as his lips brushed across the young man's head.
Cheng Yi's face was still hot until he returned to the hotel room.
Lu Yu is getting better and better at flirting now, as if he has opened up his Ren and Du meridians, and is starting to develop in the direction of his imagination.
If this happened half a month ago, he would never have believed it. Love really can change a person beyond recognition (in a positive sense).
The room has been cleaned by the hotel housekeeping and sprayed with strawberry-scented air freshener, which is sweet and smells good.
As soon as the door was closed, all the noise outside was cut off. Only the two of them were left in the quiet space, and the air seemed to warm up on its own.
Cheng Yi was afraid that Lu Yu would take this opportunity to tease him again, so he found an excuse that his legs were sore from walking too much and climbed onto the bed to lie down.
Lu Yu turned the air conditioner to sleep mode and placed a glass of water on the bedside table before walking to the desk to start working.
As soon as he sat down, his cell phone rang. Lu Yu immediately turned it to silent mode and opened it. It was a WeChat message.
[Hotel Concierge Director]: Mr. Lu, everything is ready as you said. What time do you think we should start?
[Lu Yu]: A little later, until it’s completely dark
[Hotel Concierge Director]: OK, Mr. Lu
Cheng Yi originally just wanted to pretend to be asleep, but he actually fell asleep after lying on the bed with his eyes closed for a while.
The cell phone was kicked under the bed and he didn't notice it at all. Lu Yu heard the noise and got up and walked over.
I had just helped someone pick up a phone when several WeChat messages popped up on the screen one after another.
Lu Yu took a subconscious look and saw——
[Cheng Xiaoyong]: I'm back, you're not at home?
[Cheng Xiaoyong]: Be careful recently and don't run around
[Cheng Xiaoyong]: I changed the locks on my door to a more advanced one to guard against debt collectors...
Lu Yu looked at those lines of text and felt dizzy. His heart seemed to be stabbed by a sharp weapon at that moment. Liquid rushed to the top of his head and solidified into frost.
Cheng Yi, is still in contact with his ex, and they seem very close?
Judging from Cheng Xiaoyong's tone, there was a natural intimacy, as if they lived together.
He had never been to Cheng Yi's home, but Cheng Xiaoyong spoke of it so casually and easily. Suddenly, the news that I had seen before about Cheng Xiaoyong being surrounded by debt collectors and the hand in the photo that looked like Cheng Yi flashed through my mind...
Lu Yu's chest rose and fell twice, and a dull pain spread. He put down Cheng Yi's phone, picked up his own phone, and sent a message to the specially hired investigator.
【Lu Yu】：[News link]
[Lu Yu]: Please contact the publisher of this news and ask him to send me all the photos taken at the scene.
[Specially appointed]: OK, Mr. Lu
The specially hired investigator acted quickly and sent over a dozen photos within half an hour.
Lu Yu opened the photos one by one. His eyes were burning, pulling his brain nerves, and his temples also felt painful as if they were being pricked by needles.
He saw that Cheng Yi's complete face appeared clearly in the photo. There were those who stood in front of Cheng Xiaoyong and confronted the debt collectors, there were those who grabbed Cheng Xiaoyong's arm, and there were those who looked Cheng Xiaoyong in the eye...
In short, their relationship is very close.
His memory went back to that day, which was the day after he confessed his love to Cheng Yi. Cheng Yi said that he couldn't have lunch with him at noon because the village party secretary had gone to the city and he wanted to treat people to a meal.
What a great village party secretary.
So Cheng Yi lied to himself and went to meet his ex-boyfriend.
And I didn’t hear it wrong just now in the restroom of the scenic spot. The man who was pulling Cheng Yi was talking about Cheng Xiaoyong. Cheng Yi said he didn't know him...
What a stranger.
Think about it, I basically believe in Cheng Yi unconditionally. Because I like you, I trust you.
Oh.
Lu Yu curled up his fingertips, and a ball of burning fire rose from his chest to his throat. His eyes began to become gloomy, and he turned to the young man on the bed with a cold light.
Cheng Yi didn't know how long he had slept and opened his eyes in a daze.
"You're awake." Lu Yu's voice came over, revealing a chill.
Cheng Yi felt something was wrong with his voice, so he rubbed his eyes and sat up.
In his sight, he saw Lu Yu walking towards him and standing beside his bed.
Cheng Yi shook his head to wake himself up: "Why did I fall asleep? What time is it?"
Lu Yu didn't say anything.
Cheng Yi glanced at him and prepared to get out of bed. At this moment, Lu Yu suddenly grabbed his wrist. Before he could react, the man pushed him hard. He lost his balance instantly and fell back onto the big bed.
The bed board shook and made a creaking sound, and then a shadow fell in front of his eyes. Cheng Yi's wrists were tightly restrained by Lu Yu and pressed on both sides of the pillow.
He widened his eyes slightly, his heart was beating violently, and he tried to struggle, but his legs were pressed down by Lu Yu and he could not move.
"What are you going to do?" Cheng Yi said with rapid breathing.
The veins on Lu Yu's forehead were throbbing faintly, and his deep black pupils hid a sharp edge, which seemed to bring out a dangerous aura.
After a while, he sneered and spoke in the frozen air: "I want to see how many hearts you have."
