Chapter 101
"Xiao Wu, what did he do to you that day?"
When Lin Wu heard this question, he was leaning on his shoulder and closing his eyes to rest his mind. His drowsy brain failed to respond in time. When he came back to his senses, he had already spoken halfway: "It's nothing, I just wanted to take advantage of me when I was drunk... Hmm, I don't remember exactly."
Qin Shu gave him a half-believing glance, and stroked his fingers behind his ear. The warm and cool touch made him so comfortable that he squinted his eyes unconsciously, like a cat whose fur has been smoothed.
Sensing his doubts, Lin Wu raised his head, rubbed his soft cheek against his palm, and asked tentatively: "Brother, if I didn't escape that day, or if he hit me, what did he really do to me— —Will you take revenge on him by any means like in the TV series?"
He added a lot of modifiers and dragged out a simple sentence for a very long time, trying to capture some real reaction from the other party's expression.
But nothing was found, Qin Shu's expression was always indifferent, no different from the clear sunlight outside the plane window - except that there was no temperature, more like some kind of man-made product.
"I don't know." The tone was also light, but the words he said made people shudder, "The screenwriter of the TV series will have artistic considerations, but I just simply don't want to make him feel better. If I am impulsive..."
Unreasonably hearing some danger from his words, Lin Wu hurriedly shook his hand to interrupt him: "No, no, he is my mother's student, so he will definitely not be able to gain a foothold in the academic circle in the future. There's no need to drag him to hell with your future... Besides, he didn't really do anything, I was joking."
His cold was still not fully healed, and his throat was itchy at the end of a long conversation, and he couldn't help lowering his head and coughing twice.
Qin Shu raised his eyebrows noncommittally, stretched out his hand and tapped his Adam's apple, indicating that he didn't need to continue talking, and waited for the people to calm down before saying softly, "I'm joking too."
If he had never seen his hidden paranoia and darkness, Lin Wu might still believe this sentence—he lowered his eyes, no longer entangled in his brother's half-true black humor, intending to completely bury this matter in his heart , without mentioning it.
——He can see many things, but he can't see the future of him and Qin Shu alone. Even if he has escaped from the false proposition of "is it better for Qin Shu without him", he still doesn't want to What negative impact would it have on his brother's supposedly perfect life.
It's all here, and the assumption of "if you haven't been here" is meaningless, and there is no reason to go, now he just wants to stay in Qin Shu's future, occupy a part of the moonlight that belongs to him, and then spend time with the moon Walk through a long life.
Halfway through the flight, there was still about an hour before they got off the plane.He stretched restrainedly, leaned back on Qin Shu, clasped Qin Shu's hand like he did when he took the bus home together when he was a child, and reminded him to wake himself up when he was almost there.
Qin Shu gave a "hmm", pulled down the blackout curtain of the plane window, and turned slightly to block the sunlight that leaked in for him, and said softly, "Go to sleep."
The person leaning on him seemed to want to respond to something, but he was still defeated by sleepiness in the end, only the drooping eyelashes trembled, looking very soft.
It happened to be a weekend. After getting back his luggage, he stayed in the hotel for two days. He was taken care of by his guardian with delicious food and drinks. The cold that had dragged on for more than a week finally healed, leaving only a little harmless cough——it was because of carrying The guardian secretly ordered some sweets, and accidentally got tired of it to his fragile throat.
But it's rare to come here once, and I won't come here again in the future. How can I not try the famous local specialty desserts? Qin Shu saw that he had the energy to quibble with quotations, so he didn't say anything more.
On the last afternoon, he took Qin Shu to the barber shop, cut short the piercing bangs that were about to affect his normal life, and changed his hair color to a hair color that was hard to see indoors and showed a blue luster in the sun, behind the ears. Two strands of highlights, a very flamboyant water color.
Like his eyes, which actually suit him well.
Qin Shu looked down at him, and remembered that rainy night two days ago, Lin Wu sat in the deserted noodle restaurant with his knees hugged, his eyebrows and eyes blocked by bangs, and his whole body was drenched by the rain, like A pale and branched skeleton maintains a precarious borrowed balance in the warm yellow light, and it will collapse when touched.
That was the first time he saw such a fragile Lin Wu—the young man stared at him through the water vapor with a slightly absent-minded gaze, the uneasiness and haste in his eyes made his heart ache.
He still couldn't believe that nothing happened that night, Lin Wu's rare gaffe was just complaining that he didn't care - if he was just angry with him, how could he relax the moment he saw him, and grasped like a driftwood? Watching him cry in the rainy night.
It was already noon when we got off the plane, and Lin Wu still had classes in the afternoon, so he had planned his time carefully until the last moment, and didn't even leave room for himself to pack his luggage.
"The teacher in this class has a weird temper, so he won't allow you to sit in." He handed Qin Shu his mobile phone and suitcase with low battery, and said vaguely while chewing instant bread, "Brother, you are waiting for me in the empty classroom next door." Come on, help me charge the battery by the way."
Qin Shu sighed, wondering why he was bewitched at the time, so he agreed to buy such a late ticket for a moment of resignation—probably because people who are sick rarely get up, so they stick to him and say that they don't want to Waking up early, his body was soft and hot after being wrapped in a duvet all night, which burned his reason and shook him.
"Eat slowly, there are still 10 minutes." He pushed the boy's cheeks that were pushed up by the food with his fingertips, and said helplessly, "Is it okay without books?"
"It's okay, I won't talk about the stuff in the book in this class, just ask my roommate to borrow a piece of paper." Lin Wu avoided the bread stuffing with a bit of disgust, and only ate the outer layer of skin, biting it like a small animal. Pushing it back into Qin Shu's arms, the reluctance dragged on for a long time, "I really don't want to go to class, I'm so sleepy."
"Two classes, just finish it, good boy—think about what to have for dinner."
The bell for the end of the previous class rang, and the number of people around gradually increased.Qin Shu straightened his tousled hair for him, and watched him walk towards the classroom. For no reason, he felt that this scene seemed a little familiar.
Before he could figure out why, the cell phone that Lin Wu put in his pocket suddenly vibrated four or five times in a row.He hesitated for a moment, but still didn't call for someone, took out his phone and glanced at it.
It was a call from an unknown number with no notes, and he hung up before he could pick it up—and then he noticed that there were several lines of missed calls listed on the screen, all from the same number.
Being so persistent doesn't look like a simple sales pitch... Qin Shu frowned, planning to wait for this call before calling.
However, the phone vibrated again in the next second, and what appeared on the screen was not an incoming call, but a text message.
"I will resign next week and I will never bother you again. Please delete the recording and don't tell your parents, is that okay?"
