Chapter 34
Chen Shiman didn't dare to move his eyes. He covered himself with the air-conditioning blanket, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed, looking outside. He looked like a teacher invigilating a high school exam, eager to catch someone cheating.
The hand by the window sill remained for a long time, motionless. The vines outside the window twisted and turned, their tough branches swaying slowly. The hand had turned an unusually pale color from hanging there for so long.
This strange movement aroused Chen Shiman's curiosity. He didn't care whether it was a bad guy climbing over the wall or not. He pouted and wanted to go and see what was going on.
Then he wrapped himself in a blanket and slipped on. Just as his feet touched the ground, he heard ghostly howls by the window: "Chen Shiman—help me, I'm going to die!"
Hearing this voice, Chen Shiman was stunned for a moment, then realized that it was Wang Yanyue. He ran over in a panic, with most of his body falling against the window, and struggled to pull Wang Yanyue up.
Wang Yanyue was panting and sweating profusely. The rough wall scratched his palms, leaving several small bloody wounds.
Chen Shiman took out iodine and a bandage from his medicine box, bandaged the wound, and asked seriously, "Are you okay? Why are you climbing through the window?"
God knows, on such a high floor, doing such dangerous things, is this person crazy?
He didn't want to be responsible for a life at such a young age.
Wang Yanyue patted his butt and stood up, saying heartlessly, "It was all my fault. I rock climb all the time. Besides, I was just worried about you. I guessed you were grounded. This Brother Chen is really something. You're so old, and you're still playing these tricks."
When he didn't receive a message from Chen Shiman for two days, he knew that this matter was not that simple. But Chen Mocheng couldn't bear to see his brother suffer, so the biggest punishment was to make him face the wall and reflect on his mistakes.
"Why do you say that about my brother!" Chen Shiman said loudly. No one can say that about his brother!
"Besides, if you come in through my front door, no one will stop you."
His Chen family is a well-known family. Even if Chen Shiman is under house arrest, he still has to go out to receive guests.
Wang Yanyue knocked on Chen Shiman's head, looking very disappointed. "If I wanted to see you, I could go through the main entrance, but I came here to ask you, do you want to run away?"
Wang Yanyue's eyes sparkled when he said this, and he looked eager to make a move.
"Are you kidding me? My brother will break my legs if I leave." Chen Shiman looked embarrassed. "Besides, why should I leave? I'm fine here too. Think it over carefully."
When he was first put in solitary confinement, Chen Shiman was indeed so bored that he wanted to climb out, but when he sat on the windowsill and saw the lush green lawn below, he hesitated for a moment. He didn't want to fall and piss his pants.
Wang Yanyue said, "Think? What do you think?"
"It's nothing, the main thing is that it's not good for me to leave like this." If he had to meet Gu Zhun if he went out, he would rather hide at home and be a coward.
Thinking of this, Chen Shiman's eyes dodged, and he ran to the bed and got under the quilt. "When everyone in the house is asleep, you can go out through the front door, okay?"
Wang Yanyue glanced at Chen Shiman. They grew up together and got into trouble together since they were young. It was no exaggeration to say that they were like-minded. Judging from Chen Shiman's current appearance and expression, he could guess roughly what he was thinking.
Wang Yanyue walked over and sat on the stool beside the bed, "Are you afraid of going out to see Gu Zhun?" Seeing that Chen Shiman didn't say anything, he knew that he guessed right.
"Aren't you the fearless young master of the Chen family? What's wrong?" Wang Yanyue joked. After all these years, he finally saw the second person that Chen Shiman was afraid of besides Chen Mocheng.
Chen Shiman hit him with his elbow, "Speak nicely! Matters of the heart are not that simple. I don't want to see him. At least, I don't want to see him until I think clearly."
He was like a little child, crawling back into bed after saying this.
"Oh, you still have feelings." Wang Yanyue continued to tease.
Chen Shiman glared at him fiercely several times before he shut up.
But Chen Shiman had thought about his feelings for Gu Zhun in his free time during these two days. It was really because the way they started was wrong, which led to a lot of information and relationship imbalance, making it impossible for him to tell whether he was attracted to Gu Zhun's gossip and looks, or whether he really liked this person.
And he said he liked someone, but he hasn't liked anyone in these years. Could it be that he fell in love with someone after being together for nearly a month?
Or was it that after a few times in bed, he was completely slept with? Was he conquered by her skills? The more Chen Shiman thought about it, the more embarrassed he became. How could such complicated things exist in the world?
Wang Yanyue was quite patient, pulling back Chen Shiman's blanket. He was a few months older than Chen Shiman, and always acted like a younger brother. So when his younger brother was confused, even though his thinking wasn't entirely normal, he was still willing to offer some random suggestions.
"Chen Shiman, you won't figure anything out just by thinking about it." Wang Yanyue poked the other person's spine. "Thinking about it a thousand times is not as good as putting it into practice once. Many things are completely different when you meet them in person."
This is the loss that Wang Yanyue has suffered. No matter how much he calculates and practices in his mind, it is all in vain in reality. Emotions are not those mysterious mathematics that can be used to build models.
As an outsider, he could clearly see that Chen Shiman had some other feelings for Gu Zhun, but the way they started was wrong. Meeting and talking things out would be much better than tossing and turning here, wondering about it.
"Chen Shiman, I'm leaving soon. You'd better give me an answer within ten minutes."
Now Chen Shiman was silent.
If he left with Wang Yanyue, his brother would not blame him, but he stubbornly felt that he had to meet Gu Zhun as soon as he left the house.
He didn't know how to face it.
But it seemed just as Wang Yanyue said, no matter how many times he thought about it in his mind, it was not as effective as meeting Gu Zhun once.
Chen Shiman felt very painful. He was obviously a very cowardly person. In the past, he only dared to play on the pirate ship in the amusement park and his legs would go weak when he saw the roller coaster. How could he be so brave now and get involved in such emotional affairs?
If he had another chance, Chen Shiman thought he would not have taken that incriminating photo that afternoon.
"Chen Shiman, there are only five minutes left."
Wang Yanyue's urging made his thoughts even more confused, as if there were catkins all over his mind, blocking his sight and covering his nose, making it difficult for him to see the road ahead or smell the fragrance of the world.
"Maybe he is waiting for you too?" Wang Yanyue continued.
I don’t know if this sentence touched a nerve in Chen Shiman, but he suddenly sat up with a look of confusion on his face.
wait for me?
Chen Shiman thought, then why not send a message to himself?
Oh, and his phone was confiscated.
Then why leave without saying goodbye?
Maybe there is another reason.
In that case, I might as well give him a chance to explain.
Well, it was you, Wang Yanyue, who tricked him out.
Thus, this puzzling problem was finally solved within these five tight minutes. Chen Shiman got out of bed, proud and confident, "You begged me for this!"
Wang Yanyue was heartbroken to see him like this. He had only given Chen Shiman a push from behind, obeying his wishes.
Chen Shiman was going to take this step sooner or later, he just made it happen sooner.
That night, under the thin moonlight, Chen Shiman changed into light clothes and shoes, and carefully slid down from the third floor of his house using a rope. This was the first time he had done such an extraordinary thing, and he was not very good at it.
But he felt that he was very talented, after all, he was not injured and the process was smooth.
He suddenly regretted why he was so timid when he was put in solitary confinement.
As soon as Wang Yanyue landed, he pulled Chen Shiman and ran out quickly. Only when they ran to his car did his pounding heart calm down a little.
"What's the rush?"
Wang Yanyue was speechless. "Come on, are we doing something really proud? Okay, where are you going?"
Chen Shiman was puzzled: "Can't I go to your house?" He saw Wang Yanyue's hesitant look and said magnanimously, "Okay, then let's go to Jinshui Bay."
Wang Yanyue nodded with satisfaction.
On the way there, Chen Shiman bought a lot of snacks. He bought all the cucumber-flavored potato chips on the convenience store shelves and ate two packs on the way - of course, all the money was spent by Wang Yanyue.

After sending Xu Ming and Xu Wei home, Gu Zhun drove alone on the road with nothing to do. His parents hadn't asked him to stay overnight, and going home alone seemed too lonely.
He parked the car on the side of the road with the hazard lights on. The warm wind blew across his cheeks, and the makeup he had put on earlier had begun to come off after such a while. He suddenly felt irritated, perhaps because of Xu Ming's repeated mention of Chen Shiman in the car, saying something about not quarreling and being nicer to others. At that time, due to Xu Wei, Gu Zhun didn't say anything else, but now, Gu Zhun thought, his own feelings were a mess, and yet she was still pointing fingers at him.
Gu Zhun closed the window, but had no choice but to enter three words on the navigation, and then he couldn't wait to go to that place.
Chen Shiman said that he had nowhere else to go. Gu Zhun thought, he also had nowhere to go now, and wondered if he could use this excuse to ask for a good night's sleep at his place?
After driving to Jinshui Bay, Gu Zhun parked his car in a temporary parking space. He saw another car parked in the parking space that came with the house. He didn't react at first and hesitated for a moment. Finally, he thought that it might be someone who didn't buy a parking space and parked there temporarily. He decided to meet Chen Shiman and talk to him about it. He could even buy Chen Shiman a car as an apology for leaving without saying goodbye if Chen Shiman was willing.
Thinking of this, Gu Zhun went upstairs briskly.
He originally bought this house to use for his retirement, but he didn't expect to give it away early. He likes the environment here very much.
The elevator door opened, and Gu Zhun stood at the entrance. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a Pikachu pendant hanging on the door opposite. When had the house opposite been sold? He had originally thought of buying the house opposite in the future, but it was too late.
But Gu Zhun didn’t think much about it. The most important thing now was to see Chen Shiman.
So he straightened his clothes and stood at the door like a soldier. Just as he was about to knock on the door, he heard movement from the elevator.
He turned around and saw Chen Shiman arm in arm with a charming omega, talking and laughing.
Gu Zhun stood there in a daze, and so did Chen Shiman. They didn't expect to see each other here.
Wang Yanyue was about to remove his hand from Chen Shiman when he heard Gu Zhun's angry voice: "You haven't contacted me these past two days. Are you just living a life of luxury in the house I gave you?"
He never imagined that he had been in pain for several days, but the other party didn't take it to heart at all. Instead, he felt so comfortable holding the beauty in his arms.
Chen Shiman immediately replied: "Yes."
Gu Zhun's hands, hidden behind his back, pinched his palms tightly, "You can still afford it—"
"Sir, please be careful with your words." Wang Yanyue couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up to stop him.
Gu Zhun took several breaths, and finally almost laughed out of anger. He pointed at the door and said, "Open the door for me. You want to play? Then let's try 3.p!"
