Chapter 10
Cen Xing fixed his eyes on Lu Mingshen. The person in the wheelchair had deep eyes and a straight nose. The two of them breathed intertwinedly. He could smell the strong fragrance of medicine on that person.
"Mr. Lu, this is called desensitization training." After they had known each other for nearly a week, Cen Xing finally saw Lu Mingshen's expression other than the paralyzed face, which was at least a breakthrough, and joked, "Look, I don't mean anything malicious, you don't have to keep wrapping yourself in an iron wall. inside."
Is this what he called "being friends"?Has he ever done this to anyone before?Thinking of this, Lu Mingshen clenched his hands, gritted his teeth and said, "Cen Xing, respect yourself!"
"Why do I lose my self-respect?" Cen Xing didn't know what he was thinking, and wanted to stand up, but he suddenly grabbed his wrist and almost fell on him.
There seemed to be fire in Lu Mingshen's eyes, and he stuck it to Cen Xing's ear, saying each word in a breathy voice: "There will be another time, and I will let you know the consequences."
When he spoke, the hot and humid breath caressed Cen Xing's earlobe, making the two people's posture look very ambiguous. Cen Xing frowned and complained softly: "You hurt me!"
Subconsciously let go of his hand, Lu Mingshen watched him purse his lips and rub his wrist lightly, his eyes were moist like a bullied and wronged kitten, then he heard him say angrily: "You can eat by yourself, I want to go back to rest. "
Only Lu Mingshen was left in the dining room, and it was quiet. The broken wine glasses were lying on the ground, and no one dared to clean them up.
There seemed to be an unfamiliar body temperature on the fingertips, Lu Mingshen stared blankly at his hand, he obviously didn't use much strength, but he noticed that when he let go, there was a patch of pink left on the man's white wrist.
This scene lingered in his mind. He remembered that Cen Xing's skin was soft and smooth to the touch, like pinching suet jade, so that it would be a crime not to cherish it.
Impulsively leaving the Lu family villa, Cen Xing ran away for 10 minutes, and had calmed down when he returned to the residence. It is not worth getting angry about this kind of thing.
Before crossing, he had tamed a lot of horses. Before the new horse came, he would put a saddle on the horse every day to allow the horse to jump on its own, and called the saddle desensitization training. The purpose was to let the horse understand: [-]. The saddle will not hurt it; [-]. No matter how much you toss, it is impossible to break free.
Just be patient and let that person jump up and down a few more times, he yawned, but unfortunately he didn't have dessert, and was about to go to bed, when his phone vibrated suddenly: it was Lu Mingshen's housekeeper, Aunt Fang.
"Mr. Cen, I'm sorry to disturb you at night." Aunt Fang's voice sounded disturbed: "We really can't help it, young master..."
Seeing Cen Xing appearing at the entrance of the villa, Aunt Fang seemed to see a savior, and hurried forward to meet her, explaining: "Thank you for coming here. Every night before Xiao Jin goes to bed, she likes to stay where the young master stays, but we just found For nearly two hours, I searched everywhere I could find, but Xiaojin disappeared for some reason, and now the young master is not in a good mood."
Cen Xing didn't know, seeing the scene of the two of them in the dining room earlier, all the old servants who knew Lu Mingshen sweated for him, thinking that his wrist was going to be broken, let alone the series of defensive equipment equipped with the wheelchair. The skin is peeling off at close quarters.
Therefore, the trembling servants standing in front of Lu Mingshen's study were relieved when they saw Aunt Fang invite Cen Xing, and consciously stepped aside.
In the corridor, I heard the sound of things being broken in the room, and the door trembled slightly. Cen Xing regained his composure and knocked lightly on the door: "Can you come in?"
He responded with a roar: "Get out!"
Taking a quick glance from the half-hidden door, Cen Xing gasped, and there were torn papers, glass or ceramic fragments all over the place, and Lu Mingshen did not allow anyone to enter the room.
"I can understand why he is sad," Cen Xing and Aunt Fang went downstairs together, and calmly said, "If Xiao Jin can't be found, it will be difficult for him to recover immediately. Can you please tell me when Xiao Jin is missing? When was the last time I saw him..."
Cen Xing will always remember the way Lu Mingshen looked at Xiao Jin at that time, it was gentle and lonely, which made people feel astringent.During this period of contact with Lu Mingshen, Cen Xing knew that he would not show his emotions easily, Xiao Jin was his rare sustenance, and the loss of his pet dog might be the superficial reason, the last straw.
Hearing Cen Xing's voice, Lu Mingshen regained his composure for a moment. There was a mess around him, and there was nothing to throw away. He deliberately didn't want anyone to see his current appearance.
There was only the pale white light of the street lamp outside the window. Lu Mingshen saw Cen Xing stepping out of the gate of the villa on the second floor, and smiled self-deprecatingly: Everyone will leave in the end, even dogs can't stand him, let alone people.
When receiving the call from Cen Xing, Jiang Wangchao was about to take a nap, when he saw the name of the caller, he immediately picked up: "What's wrong?"
……
At four o'clock in the morning, the darkest hour before dawn, Lu Mingshen, who hadn't closed his eyes all night, heard the vibration of his phone. He didn't want to pay attention to it, but the caller was extremely persistent.He glanced across the screen indifferently, picked up the phone, and said without sadness or joy in his voice, "What's the matter?"
"I found Xiaojin, and I'm on my way back." Cen Xing's voice sounded a little tired, but it had an infectious power, like a morning star in the sky, the only light in the dimness before Lu Mingshen's eyes. He continued: "About There are still 10 minutes, before that, can you promise me one thing?"
Taking a deep breath, Lu Mingshen closed his eyes, swallowed several times, and said hoarsely, "Yes."
"I haven't said it yet." The place where Cen Xing was was a bit noisy, but Lu Mingshen could still hear his chuckle, clear and sweet: "There are witnesses here, don't try to play tricks."
In the middle of the night, who is with him?Lu Mingshen's newly aroused heart was covered with a haze.
In the past 5 minutes, Lu Mingshen, who was standing in front of the villa, held his breath. The lights appeared on the street corner to illuminate the empty road. It was a truck he was all too familiar with.
The driver was a young man he didn't know, and Cen Xing was sitting in the co-pilot with Xiao Jin in his arms. Lu Mingshen saw the bright smile on his face, as if the morning sun had risen early.
"As you may have guessed, I not only brought Xiao Jin back." The truck stopped at the entrance of the villa, Cen Xing jumped out of the car, carefully carried Xiao Jin wagging his tail into Lu Mingshen's arms, turned his head and opened the back door of the car, looking at him with piercing eyes. He: "There is another friend who misses you very much."
The sound of horseshoes seemed to be stepping on his heart, Lu Mingshen's chest heaved violently, and Cen Xing pulled a tall goose yellow horse from the cart. For a moment, his mind went blank.
"I found Xiao Jin snuggling with him at Chaoying's fence." Chaoying is one of Lu Mingshen's beloved horses. Seeing the light in that person's eyes, Cen Xing sniffed, trying to make his voice sound Be calm: "You miss him too, don't you?"
Chaoying was fierce and unruly towards strangers, but when he saw his master, he lowered his horse's head and lightly rubbed Lu Mingshen's hand like a half-ton child.
At this moment, Cen Xing is very sure that Lu Mingshen wants to go back to the arena. Only equestrians can understand that the scenery between the horse's ears is like the sea calling for a whale to break through the waves and ride the wind. It is a kind of throbbing engraved in the soul.
Gently touching the horse's forehead, Lu Mingshen's heart was in turmoil, he was speechless for a while, and then asked hoarsely, "How did you think of looking there?"
"I heard from Aunt Fang that you used to take Xiao Jin to the racecourse every week." Cen Xing squatted down beside him, put his hands on the armrest of the wheelchair, looked up at him, his eyes sparkling: "She said that Xiao Jin is usually very good-looking and very gentle." He's smart and doesn't run around, I guess he might want to see his good friend." With a smile on his lips, Cen Xing touched Xiao Jin who was next to his feet, and added: "It just so happens that Dr. Jiang is on duty at the racecourse, I invite him Help check the physical condition of Xiaojin and Chaoying, and drive them over by the way."
Fang remembered another person, and Lu Mingshen turned his head to look at the young man who got out of the car. It turned out that he was Jiang Wangchao.
Sensing the special atmosphere between the two, Jiang Wangchao didn't want to be a light bulb, so he stood stiffly beside the car and said politely, "Mr. Lu, hello."
Lu Mingshen nodded and said, "Aunt Fang, don't neglect Mr. Jiang."
Ask Aunt Fang to receive Jiang Wangchao, only Lu Mingshen and Cen Xing are left in the front yard, the sky is slightly bright, the night is over, and dawn is coming.
"Your face." Only then did Lu Mingshen see clearly that Cen Xing's originally fair and smooth face was now covered with dust and sweat, leaving a few light gray marks, like a cat with a painted face; his short black hair was stained with hay, and his coat was torn off Lines, and there is still unscraped mud on the sides of the shoes.Lu Mingshen raised his hand, realizing later that he was afraid that the blisters on his hand would hurt him, so he put it down abruptly, handed him a tissue instead, and asked in a deep voice, "Is he disobedient?"
He knew his horse well, and at this moment he pretended to be ignorant in front of him, and rubbed his forehead against his coquettish super shadow, how unfriendly he was to people who met him for the first time.
Noticing his movements, Cen Xing calmly took the handed tissue, half-jokingly replied: "Maybe it follows the master's personality."
When this thoroughbred horse tried to get close to him, it first wanted to bite him, then planed its hooves and kicked its legs... It was exactly the same as Lu Mingshen's character. Fortunately, he was prepared and half coaxed and half deceived before he brought Chaoying into the car .
"Thank you," Lu Mingshen turned his head away: "You should go in and rest, whatever you want is fine."
"I haven't said exactly what it is." Cen Xing stood up, looked forward to Chaoying who kicked someone violently not long ago, and is now rolling in the grass, leisurely chewing grass, and said with a smile: "Dr. Said, Chaoying is a little depressed, I guess he is seeing the master and good friends happy, it is more effective than medicine."
Lu Mingshen remained silent, and heard him continue to say: "I will participate in the athlete qualification examination tomorrow, and when I officially compete in the future, can you come and see me?"
"You don't have to answer right away. I believe that the dignified Mr. Lu will not go back on what he promised." Cen Xing's eyes shone with confidence, and he said with a smile, "There is still more than a month." A layer of golden light gives people the illusion that the people in front of them are as warm as the rising sun.
Cen Xing insisted on going back to the racecourse to take care of the two horses before going home to rest. After Lu Mingshen sent him and Jiang Wangchao back, he sat alone in the back garden and watched Chaoying and Xiaojin chase each other on the grass.
Lu Mingshen kept circling a sentence in his mind. It was Cen Xing who squatted beside him before he left, and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Now do you believe that I really want to be friends with you?"
