Chapter 48 Extra Episode 2: The Present World
Chapter 48 Extra Episode 2: The Present World
Lu Xihuai's trip to the summit will take at least ten days and a half a month, and he still needs to bring a lot of clothes after being streamlined.
He spread the suitcase on the floor next to the bed, the wardrobe door was wide open, and the inside was less than half emptied.
In fact, it just looks a little exaggerated, the reason why it looks empty is because Lu Xihuai didn't have many clothes in the first place.
Jiang Jingyu stood behind Lu Xihuai, looking down at Lu Xihuai who was squatting on the ground, he looked very thin.
He bent down and stretched out his hand to stroke Lu Xihuai's protruding neck and spine, and felt that Lu Xihuai was still a little thin.
"What are you doing? It's itchy." Lu Xihuai pushed Jiang Jingyu's hand away with a smile, and looked back at him.
Jiang Jingyu bypassed Lu Xihuai and sat by the bed, saying, "It's so tiring to carry so many things."
Lu Xihuai thought carefully about Jiang Jingyu's words, looked at his suitcase and said, "Are you okay?"
After all, it will take more than ten days, and the 24-inch box Lu Xihuai is still not full.
Jiang Jingyu said, "I can get someone to help you get things ready over there."
Lu Xihuai stopped what he was doing, stood up and sat beside Jiang Jingyu.
The two people's arms are stuck together, and the heat that seems to be there is transmitted through a thin layer of clothing, which is more itchy than touching the naked body directly.
"Are you trying to say that you will miss me?" Lu Xihuai's eyes were bright when he asked this question, and Jiang Jingyu's very indirect way of expressing it was very easy for him to understand.
Jiang Jingyu is now worried about how he will live after Lu Xihuai leaves.
Jiang Jingyu stretched out his left hand to hold Lu Xihuai's right hand beside him, and said with sincerity, "Yes."
"We can send text messages, make phone calls, and make video calls. I won't be away for a long time." Lu Xihuai shook Jiang Jingyu's hand with his backhand, and counted these contact methods one by one.
Jiang Jingyu didn't speak, turned over and pressed Lu Xihuai on the bed, and said, "Let me hug you for a while."
Lu Xihuai laughed, and patted Jiang Jingyu on the back, not daring to say that this person was childish, so he could only laugh silently.
But the shaking of his body betrayed him, Jiang Jingyu pulled off his clothes and bit him on the shoulder.
"What are you laughing at?"
"Laugh at you like a child, obviously I'm the one younger than you, right?" Lu Xihuai teased him.
Jiang Jingyu also laughed and said, "Then what should we do?"
Lu Xihuai hugged Jiang Jingyu's neck tightly, and he leaned into Jiang Jingyu's ear and said, "I will miss you too."
Jiang Jingyu kissed Lu Xihuai on the forehead: "Good boy."
Lu Xihuai smiled.
"I'm leaving, you have to work hard!"
Jiang Jingyu said, "Okay."
Lu Xihuai was about to leave Jiang Jingyu without covering the heat in his hands for a few days. Jiang Jingyu thought about it calmly and felt that he was a little naive and made people laugh, but he couldn't control himself and pretended to be expressionless. He went to talk to Lu Xihuai, but he didn't expect Lu Xihuai to see through him so easily.
Jiang Jingyu stared at Lu Xihuai, the two were so close that they could clearly hear each other's breathing.Lu Xihuai and Jiang Jingyu looked at each other for a few minutes, and felt that the scene was a little awkward, so they moved their eyes away and stopped looking at Jiang Jingyu.
Jiang Jingyu scratched Lu Xihuai's neck with his finger: "Why don't you look at me?"
Lu Xihuai remained silent, her eyes dodged, but the tips of her ears were slightly red.
Jiang Jingyu sat up with a smile and said, "Let's go to eat."
Before leaving, he did not forget to help Lu Xihuai cover the suitcase.
On the plane at [-] o'clock the next morning, Jiang Jingyu took him out of bed at [-] o'clock in the morning and pushed him to the bathroom to wash up.
Lu Xihuai went to the kitchen and picked up the bread and took a bite. It was coarse grain and tasted a bit sour.
"Not sweet." Lu Xihuai finished the bread in two or three bites while commenting on the taste of the bread.
Jiang Jingyu's skill in frying eggs has improved, Lu Xihuai thought so when she used chopsticks to split the eggs.
"You should eat less sweets." Jiang Jingyu came over and put the milk next to Lu Xihuai.
Lu Xihuai took the milk and took a sip, without looking at Jiang Jingyu, said: "I know, it's only suitable to eat sweets when you're unhappy, I rarely eat it recently! Didn't you notice it?"
Lu Xihuai was always sober and knew what she was doing.Relying on sweets means that he can no longer save himself, letting himself go like an addicted drug.If it is barely easier, then you have to push yourself to take two steps forward.
Lu Xihuai didn't say that Jiang Jingyu really didn't notice, he has been thinking that Lu Xihuai is going to leave soon, and he is too concerned about this matter and other things are a bit hard to care about.
Jiang Jingyu knowingly asked: "Then are you happy now?"
Lu Xihuai said, "That's right! I'm very happy every day."
Jiang Jingyu's throat rolled, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he only left a sentence: "I'll take you to the airport after eating." and left the kitchen.
Lu Xihuai was biting into the remaining slices of bread, on which Jiang Jingyu had already spread mayonnaise.Lu Xihuai thought hard about the possibility of teaching Jiang Jingyu how to cook, and thought he could try it when he came back.He doesn't want bread at all for breakfast.
Jiang Jingyu carried Lu Xihuai's suitcase downstairs and put it in the trunk of the car in advance, sometimes he didn't know what else he could do to help Lu Xihuai.
When he went upstairs, Lu Xihuai got dressed and stood waiting for him at the door: "I thought you were going..."
Before Jiang Jingyu could answer Lu Xihuai reached out and pulled Jiang Jingyu's tie, he lifted his chin lightly, looking very arrogant: "You have to take care of yourself when I'm not around."
Suggestive words that are rich in meaning.
Jiang Jingyu asked back: "What will happen if you don't manage well?"
Lu Xihuai: "Whip, collar, and handcuffs, choose one."
Jiang Jingyu froze there on the spot and didn't move. Lu Xihuai has become more and more bewitching and cheerful recently.
Lu Xihuai tightened his grip on Jiang Jingyu's tie, and asked in a low voice, "Did you hear that?"
Jiang Jingyu followed Lu Xihuai and said, "I will be obedient."
This answer made Lu Xihuai quite proud, and he loosened Jiang Jingyu's tie, and Lu Xihuai helped him refasten the tie that had been torn and deformed, and the two of them went downstairs together.
Most of the other people on the summit trip had already known each other or knew each other's name. The higher the level of the circle, the narrower it was. Lu Xihuai's appearance among them seemed a bit abrupt.He has low qualifications and is accompanied by his young age. Those who can be squeezed in are not simple characters, and everyone else understands this truth.Lu Xihuai also knows that everyone here is his seniors, the best in the industry, and he has a respectful mind, and he can help the seniors with small things, but it is just a matter of giving breakfast and buying a cup of coffee. It was done, so gradually other people no longer have any relationship with him. When discussing matters related to the summit, he will be listened to by the side. It seems that they are preparing to let him participate, not just follow the soy sauce It's as simple as putting a name on it.
After sending Lu Xihuai away, Jiang Jingyu went directly to the company. Recently, Shi Guangqi asked Zang Jing to intervene in Qishi's affairs. Shi Guangqi wanted to get more contracts, but Qishi alone couldn't do it. He wanted to give up. Part of the freedom is given to Tibet and Jingjing, and then it goes further.The Zangjing side is currently holding a meeting to discuss the plan based on Shi Guangqi's submission, and plans to resolve this matter as soon as possible, so Zhao Zhihan started working overtime yesterday.
Since Jiang Jingyu became a family man, her commute to and from get off work is more punctual than ordinary employees, never arriving 1 minute earlier, and never leaving get off work 1 minute late.Before, Zhao Zhihan, who was worried about Jiang Jingyu's life-long event, almost spit out a mouthful of old blood. If Jiang Jingyu didn't work, his workload would increase. Why should he be glad that Jiang Jingyu got out of the order...
Seeing that Jiang Jingyu went to work so early for the first time, Zhao Zhihan hurriedly handed over some documents that he needed to deal with.
Jiang Jingyu asked him to put the documents aside the table and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Zhao Zhihan waved his hand: "It's not hard, boss, you are busy, I'm going out."
Jiang Jingyu nodded, and at the same time took off his coat and hung it up.
Zhao Zhihan ran out of the office and shouted "Yes", it seems that today is a day without overtime.
It's a pity that Jiang Jingyu had been working for less than two hours before someone disturbed his thoughts.The hospital called, about Grandpa Lu's condition.
At this point, death is already foreseeable, and it is so close at hand. Jiang Jingyu only hopes that Lu Xihuai will not be too sad when that day really comes.Birth, old age, sickness and death, no one can escape.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Jingyu sat there for a few minutes, put on his coat and left again.When he arrived at the hospital, Grandpa Lu had just finished his examination, and Uncle Lu was peeling oranges for him to eat.
He didn't push the door to go in. He stood outside the door for a while, asked the doctor to find out about Grandpa Lu's condition, and then left.
Jiang Jingyu has never been able to imagine how Lu Xihuai lived in the first 20 years.Poverty can stifle all the possibilities of a person and make people have no pride.So how did Lu Xihuai walk over step by step, shining so brightly that he couldn't take his eyes off...
Jiang Jingyu came home from the hospital, changed his clothes, went downstairs and turned on the car navigation, the destination was Lu Xihuai's hometown.The navigation shows that the journey is about four hours, which is a place close to the junction of the two cities.
Driving all the way from the urban area to the suburbs, the road became deserted, so Jiang Jingyu got on the expressway.
After driving on the expressway for more than three hours, Jiang Jingyu was a little tired. After getting off the expressway, he searched for the nearest gas station to fill up his gas, and wandered aimlessly in this small county.
The busiest part of this small town can be turned around along the main road in less than half an hour by car, which is unbelievably small in Jiang Jingyu's eyes.He drove to Lu Xihuai's middle school again. It seemed that the school had been refurbished many times, and it was quite different from the few photos of Lu Xihuai left in middle school.When he arrived, it happened to be the time for school in the afternoon, and the students coming and going poured into the school.
Jiang Jingyu parked the car outside the school. This school doesn't even have a security room, only an old man who looks after the gate.Seeing Jiang Jingyu going in, he didn't stop him, and even smiled cheerfully.
It has been almost five years since Lu Xihuai graduated from here. The interior of the school building and the playground have been renovated. Jiang Jingyu walked around the playground and sat on the steps below the flag raising platform to smoke a cigarette.
"Hello, which class are you in?"
Jiang Jingyu looked back and thought it was the dean of the school just by hearing the voice, but it turned out that it was a gangster student who didn't go to class.
Seeing him turn around, the other party was also taken aback for a moment. The other party saw that Jiang Jingyu was well dressed and smoked, and wanted to scare the other party, but found that this person was not a student of their school, so he stopped talking.
Jiang Jingyu looked back and turned back, as if nothing happened.
The boy who called him just now was very courageous. He sat down beside him and said, "Dude, give me a cigarette!"
Jiang Jingyu thought it was funny, and handed him a cigarette.
"Aren't you going to class?" Jiang Jingyu asked.
"What's the use of not going to class, anyway, if you don't get into school, no one cares about it." The boy took out a lighter from his pocket, lit a cigarette, and held it in his mouth indistinctly. After taking two puffs, he began to cough, "The quality of your cigarette no, sorry!"
Jiang Jingyu didn't speak.
"Aren't you from our county?" The mandarin spoken by the boy was very awkward, with a taste of his hometown dialect.
Jiang Jingyu said, "No."
The boy nodded and crushed the cigarette under his feet. He was not used to smoking Jiang Jingyu's cigarettes, which were not at all the same as the inferior cigarettes he had smoked before. He said, "I knew it, your Mandarin is really good, thank you smoke."
"If you don't study, what are you going to do after graduating from high school?"
"What can you do?"
Jiang Jingyu didn't know what to say. After listening to the boy's brief complaints about the school, he asked when the school was going to be renovated, and the boy went back to class.
The enrollment rate of this school is unbelievably low, and less than 500 of the 40 students in a grade four are admitted to university.The poor quality of teaching is unimaginable.
When Jiang Jingyu wandered around inside the teaching building, he saw Lu Xihuai's name on the fourth floor of the school—a list of students admitted to university over the years was announced, and Lu Xihuai's name was impressively the first on the list in the year of his college entrance examination. There is no doubt that Lu Xihuai is No.1.
The paper was a little yellowed, but Jiang Jingyu smiled, as if he saw Lu Xihuai who was working hard through the overlapping time.No arrogance or impetuosity, no competition with the world.
He had seen the graduation photo of Lu Xihuai High School, which was taken on the playground. At that time, the playground of this school was still land, and the arc of the playground was surrounded by bricks. Even now it is not a rubber playground.
If Jiang Jingyu hadn't come here in person this time, he really wouldn't have imagined this kind of environment.
Jiang Jingyu found a small restaurant that seemed to have been open for a long time and went in to eat. He wondered if Lu Xihuai had been there before, sat where he was sitting now, and ate alone with his head down.
The most upscale hotel in the entire county does not have a star rating, Jiang Jingyu doesn't know how many days he will stay here, he feels that this small city makes him very close to Lu Xihuai before they met.
He wanted to make a call to Lu Xihuai, calculated the time and Lu Xihuai should have gotten off the plane, but he didn't know if he was busy now, so he still didn't make this call in the end.
After Lu Xihuai arrived at the place, the person in charge asked them to go to the room to rest, adjust the time difference, and wait until the next day to start work.
After he packed his things, he made a video call to Jiang Jingyu.
Jiang Jingyu was lying on the bed not knowing what to do, when Lu Xihuai's call came.
Lu Xihuai sent a video call, and Jiang Jingyu connected without thinking.
Looking at the background behind Jiang Jingyu, Lu Xihuai was puzzled for a moment, squinted his eyes, and asked, "Where are you?"
Jiang Jingyu didn't want to lie to him, and said, "L City."
Lu Xihuai was even more surprised: "What are you doing there?"
Jiang Jingyu said, "On a whim."
Lu Xihuai had only been away for a few hours before he came here, so he deliberately pretended to be indifferent.
"Ah... I'm worried that you won't be used to it." Lu Xihuai said.
Jiang Jingyu thought for a while before Lu Xihuai left and told him to work hard, pretending to be calm and said: "I will go back tomorrow."
Lu Xihuai nodded, and told him about the arrangement that the person in charge had explained before.
Jiang Jingyu finally stayed in L City for three days before leaving. Lu Xihuai became extremely busy and had no time to make video calls to Jiang Jingyu. In order to save time, most of the calls were on the way out or back to the hotel. Jiang Jingyu secretly relaxed tone.
Even Lu Xihuai himself found it incredible that there is a place for him in building a language room for translators.Interpreters from various countries for this summit formed a 46-member translation team. During the summit, translators needed to be rotated every half hour.In order to prevent accidents, many translators need to be alternates, and Lu Xihuai is one of the alternates.Although he is not in the translation box, he still needs to pay full attention to prevent accidents.
Maybe it was Lu Xihuai's good luck, or maybe the German translator was too unlucky. On the last day, the other party had a bad stomach and had to stop working, and Lu Xihuai took over.
Lu Xihuai was a little nervous at the beginning, and tried his best to keep his voice steady. He couldn't mess up such a big scene and such an important matter.
After entering the state, he began to relax instead, his mind was spinning rapidly, and he was vaguely excited. Some parts that he subconsciously felt that the literal translation was blunt have been changed, so that it is more appropriate and handy than the previous translator.Lu Xihuai became famous in the first battle. When the list of the entire translation team was announced, he was almost in the middle row. This was the summit organizer's recognition of him.
On the day the summit ended, Liao Zhixing actually contacted him and praised him for his excellent work.
As the tide rises, Lu Xihuai's value has increased by more than ten times in an instant. Fortunately, he knows that he still has a long way to go. When receiving orders, he only depends on the content of the project, and the asking price is fine. Make yourself more humble.
A year later, Grandpa Lu's condition deteriorated to the point of no return. Lu Xihuai turned down all his work and walked the last part of the journey with the old man.He felt that his tears might have been shed in his previous life, and when he knew the result, he felt overly calm in his heart.
Jiang Jingyu said: "Want to cry? Cry."
But he shook his head for the first time and said, "Hold me for a while."
Jiang Jingyu obeyed.
The two sent Grandpa Lu to the end of the journey. Although Lu Xihuai did not cry, Jiang Jingyu knew that he was not happy.
In the end, Jiang Jingyu took Lu Xihuai to the countryside abroad to relax. The two lived in a farm. The golden retriever that Jiang Jingyu raised in the years before returning to China has been fostered here. After so many years, he has not forgotten him. After seeing him, he was very happy. Jump over.
Maybe it's because Lu Xihuai smells like Jiang Jingyu, the golden retriever doesn't recognize him, and circles around Lu Xihuai.
The life of the two of them was almost isolated from the world, sleeping until the sun basked in the sun in the morning, and sitting on the grass watching the stars at night.No one saw the two of them doing anything left and right, they were very reckless.
Until Lu Xihuai's shoulder blade was scratched by something in the grass, there was a long and thin scar, which looked extremely painful.Lu Xihuai himself thought there was nothing to do, but Jiang Jingyu refused to do it, saying that he would not go out at night in the future.
Lu Xihuai said: "It's still possible to go out, but you don't mess around."
If it wasn't for Jiang Jingyu who pushed him to the ground to bully him, how could he have been injured? He cried in pain and Jiang Jingyu still felt that he was acting like a baby. Only now did he realize that he regretted it, and he deserved it.
Jiang Jingyu said: "When you cry, it only makes me want to bully you more."
The soft and nasal crying sound, Jiang Jingyu only wanted to force Lu Xihuai to call him brother or husband at this time.
Lu Xihuai turned dark and didn't want to pay attention to him, called "violet", touched the golden retriever's head and led the dog away without waiting for Jiang Jingyu.
Jiang Jingyu chased after Lu Xihuai and held Lu Xihuai's hand, was thrown away, then held again, repeated several times and Lu Xihuai finally stopped playing tricks on him.
"Lu Xihuai, I love you so much."
Lu Xihuai was injured and Jiang Jingyu couldn't bear him, afraid of touching the wound, so he hugged him obediently and slept for a while.When taking a bath, he would kiss Lu Xihuai's wound, Lu Xihuai said with a smile: "Jiang Jingyu, you are so perverted."
Of course, Jiang Jingyu wanted to prove how changeable and moody he was, the water in the bathtub fluctuated up and down in an instant, and the water was rippling.
On the way, Lu Xihuai hugged Jiang Jingyu's neck and murmured softly "It hurts", Jiang Jingyu stopped instantly to check his wound.Who knew that Lu Xihuai held his breath for a few seconds and laughed, clearly playing tricks on him. Hearing the laughter, Violet ran in and scratched at the bathroom door with its paws, but couldn't open it for a long time. Jiang Jingyu yelled and whimpered outside the door. It also wanted to play with the masters.
Jiang Jingyu cleaned up Lu Xihuai's wound, dried him with a towel and carried him to the bed, Violet wagged his tail after him.
The two of them lived a happy life here, Cheng Xianyu forcibly made her jet lag the same as the two of them in order to coax her son.He called Jiang Jingyu and cried and said that he would give this brat to them, and then give birth to a delicate little princess to raise by himself.
Jiang Jingyu naturally didn't want others to disturb his and Lu Xihuai's life, so he did psychological work for Cheng Xianyu with amazing patience, letting him continue to hold his son and bear the burden of hard work.
As the child grew up, Lu Xihuai's toy factory gradually started to operate, and Lu Xihuai's center of gravity even deviated from the track he had planned for himself.
What should be done is sometimes completely different from what he wants to do. When Liao Zhixing reported to Jiang Jingyu, he said one more thing, telling him not to let Lu Xihuai waste his talent. He has already stood so high. You should work harder to consolidate your position.But what is Lu Xihuai doing recently?Being stuck in the toy factory all day and unable to get out, Liao Zhixing felt that Lu Xihuai was really still a child, fond of playing.
Jiang Jingyu knew that Liao Zhixing was doing it for Lu Xihuai's good, so he didn't directly relay Liao Zhixing's words to Lu Xihuai after returning home, and asked Lu Xihuai whether he was happy at the toy factory recently.
Lu Xihuai seemed very excited when talking about toys. After telling Jiang Jingyu what he had done that day, he happily said that the master of the toy factory would specially make a set of Lego for him. According to the blueprint he gave, it was him and The house where Jiang Jingyu lived before was a dilapidated neighborhood.
Seeing Lu Xihuai so happy, Jiang Jingyu swallowed back what Liao Zhixing wanted him to convey to Lu Xihuai.
Being happy is the most important thing.
When a person stands at a certain height, there will not be much difference in how much satisfaction people walk up.Lu Xihuai did not expect that he could reach this height so quickly, he thought it would take him ten or twenty years.Everything happened unexpectedly, Jiang Jingyu was not in his plan, it seemed that all the goals he had set for himself in his life had been achieved, his fighting spirit was slack, he just wanted to do what he liked, and slacked off for a few days.
The relationship between Jiang Jingyu and Lu Xihuai was considered semi-public, and the media did not specifically report it, but everyone in the upper circles knew that Jiang Dongliu's son, who was out of his control, found him a male wife.
The security of that community was not very good before, and the two of them moved out after meeting some strange people one after another.If it weren't for the fact that this community was too difficult to renovate, Jiang Jingyu might have chosen to subsidize money to renovate the entire community.
After moving away, Jiang Jingyu spent money to buy the house and had it cleaned regularly. Occasionally, he and Lu Xihuai would go back to live for two days. This was where it all started, and none of them could bear it.
Under the guidance of Lu Xihuai, Jiang Jingyu finally learned to cook some simple meals.
Lu Xihuai was on his back when he was serving dinner, so he took advantage of the situation to lift Lu Xihuai up.
"what happened?"
"Jiang Jingyu, I want to hear you sing."
"Sing?" Jiang Jingyu asked back.
"Yes, English songs. You speak English very well."
Jiang Jingyu hummed the tune to find the feeling, and then said unhurriedly: "...I'dliketoheartillthedayIdie
As long as I live, I would like to listen to your whispers
And the time together in this room
in this room with you
So take me home and don't spare the horses
Give me a home, stop wasting time
Wait till the silence Needed
that's the peace i want
......"
The lights outside the window are bright, and the years in the house are quiet.
The author has something to say:
When I heard this song by chance, I thought it fit Jiang Jingyu and Lu Xihuai's mood very well.It's over, eh.
Song: "Home"
Singer: Bruno Major
