Chapter 52 Past and Present

On the way back, Luo Lian didn't speak, which made Yu Yi always think that Luo Lian was in a bad mood, and he was careful not to talk to him, hoping that he would calm down, and then they would talk again when they got home.

"What's the matter with Li Shengjun?" At a red light intersection, it was Mr. Luo who finally spoke first.

"Ah?" Yu Yi didn't react for a moment.

"Li Shengjun." Luo Lian knocked on the steering wheel.

"It has completely become a rat in the sewer." Yu Yi spread his hands, "Now the two cases of the year are related to him. The police have been looking for him and trying to contact him. It is a pity that he is unwilling to come out, and he is brave and foolish, but now the suspicion has increased."

Luo Lian nodded silently.

In fact, he was quite satisfied with this expression, but because Yu Yi was too sensitive tonight, he always felt that Luo Lian was in a bad mood.Seeing Luo Lian roll down the window halfway, he took the opportunity to ask cautiously: "It's windy, be careful of catching a cold. Well, are you unhappy?"

Luo Lian turned his head and looked at Yu Yi inexplicably.

Yu Yi:? ? ?

Didn't it?

"I thought what your dad said to you today would make you somewhat depressed." Yu Yi covered his mouth and smiled, "To be honest, I thought your dad belonged to that kind of elder in my impression, tall and fierce, and not talkative. .Plus there is still money and power, and it must be a boss-level temper when it's over."

Luo Lian laughed at Yu Yi's rambling adjectives: "He really likes you."

Yu Yi faintly felt that his ears were getting hot, so he also rolled down the window on the other side, pretending to look at the neon lights outside the window calmly: "Of course I know, I love everyone, and flowers bloom when they see each other!"

The two soon reached the downstairs of the house, and Luo Lian raised his hand, but instead of opening the door, he tightly held Yu Yi's hand.

Yu Yi's palm lay obediently in Luo Lian's, without struggling or moving, quietly allowing Luo Lian to absorb his warmth.

"Thank you." After a long time, Luo Lian said.

"Why don't you thank me, why don't you just promise me with your body?" Yu Yi couldn't help but want to have sex again.

It can be seen that Luo Lian's mood is a bit heavy today.But now, it's a lot easier.Yu Yi is no stranger to his kind of worry, and Yu Yi was also like this when his father passed away.Luo Lian has the confidence to fight against any pressure from the outside world, but he cannot fight against his father's unhealthy body.

He is worried about his father.

"When do you plan to go back later?" Yu Yi asked.

When the two got out of the car, Luo Lian's curly black hair was blown messily in the cold wind: "Let's see again, go back first, you've worked hard today."

"Actually, your father is quite interesting." Yu Yi followed behind him.

Stretching his hand into the pocket of his coat, Yu Yi suddenly touched something, and only then remembered that he almost forgot about it.

This is the small and exquisite harmonica that he picked up in the musical instrument store after he and Dafei went to the cafe that day.

"By the way, I have something for you."

Luo Lian stopped and looked at Yu Yi suspiciously.

"You have already given me a token of love, but I haven't given you yet. After much deliberation, I don't know what to give. I'm not a pure artist like you. I only picked this little harmonica. I saw it at a glance. I think it is very beautiful, just like the feeling when I first saw you. I think it has texture and exquisiteness." Yu Yi took out the small metal harmonica from his pocket and put it in Luo Lian's hand, "After I want you Really go to your dad's, seeing it is like seeing me."

Luo Lian spread out his palms and looked at the small golden harmonica in his palms, which was heavy and full of weight, and had a cold metallic texture in the night.It is indeed exquisite.

"I like it very much." Luo Lian's eyes softened quickly, it was a look that Yu Yi rarely saw, "I will practice and try."

"I'll teach you!" Yu Yi bumped Luo Lian with his shoulder, jokingly said, "How about word of mouth?"

"..."

The voices of the two disappeared in the elevator room.

A figure poked its head out quietly from the darkness, and stood at the door of the elevator after a while.Under the bloated dress, under the full armor of the scarf and hat, a pair of fierce eyes were exposed.

Who else is it not Li Shengjun?

He stared intently at the rising red numbers in the elevator until the numbers stopped at a certain floor and stopped moving.The man put on his scarf again, turned around and disappeared into the night.

No one knows when he came here, how he came here, and how long he has been lurking in this stairwell.

Of course, Luo Lian and Yu Yi didn't know even more at this time.

In the evening, the two of them were busy dealing with Luo Xiping's conversation, eating was just an aid, especially Yu Yi, who didn't eat much and talked to Luo Xiping the whole time.Right now, the vegetables he bought are still in the refrigerator, so he simply boiled a pot of fragrant vegetable soup, which is not too much and can fill his stomach.

They didn't know that the biggest worry in front of them, Li Shengjun, was already active under their noses!

After dinner, Yu Yi went to take a bath, Luo Lian washed the dishes, and the two of them nestled on the sofa and talked for a while, each busy with their own affairs.

On Yu Yi's side, there are application forms to be filled out in the past few days, and there are also several salary sheets that he paid back to the data sheet, which needs to be completed by him; while Luo Lian turned on his computer and went to the exhibition website, there is a The humble forum, every time an art theme is held in any of the pavilions, there will be a thread where ideas are exchanged and questions asked.Don’t look at places like art galleries that usually don’t attract much attention. In fact, people in the art circle are very concerned. The messages and questions on the exhibition boards are updated almost every hour, and Luo Lian checks them every night.Or read the observations of these people carefully, or answer questions.For him, the biggest harvest is nothing more than sorting out and recording the psychological activities and feedback of the viewers, and then using them as a reference for his future works to draw inspiration from them.

This is the first time Yu Yi has seen Luo Lian use a computer to do things. You know, this gentleman from the primitive era usually puts an end to electronic products if they are not necessary.Now watching Luo Lian operate the computer, although his typing speed is a bit slow, he is also very proficient.

Unknowingly, Yu Yi's eyes were drawn to the messages Luo Lian sorted out.He even saw those people's interpretation of his photos, and admired them with relish.

Half an hour later, when Luo Lian turned off the computer and turned around, Yu Yi fell asleep on the sofa with his laptop in his arms.

Recently, Yu Yi seems to be prone to fall asleep without knowing it. Maybe it's because of job hunting and sudden decision to resume the current life.

Luo Lian helplessly put the computer in his hand aside, picked him up, and went back to the bedroom.

When being hugged by Luo Lian, Yu Yi woke up in a daze.It's just that he was too sleepy, and he was obsessed with the familiar scent of Luo Lian, so he put his arm around Luo Lian's shoulder, and he would not let go.

He muttered, Luo Lian couldn't hear what Yu Yi was saying, and after covering him with a quilt, Yu Yi woke up in a daze, and he pulled Luo Lian's skirt again, pulling him closer To himself: "I always feel that there should be applause tonight."

Luo Lian:? ?

Luo Lian didn't know what clapping meant, and he didn't ask any further, because Yu Yi wrapped himself up comfortably in the quilt after saying this sentence, and fell asleep completely.

Perhaps it was because of seeing Luo Lian's father today that it brought back Yu Yi's thin childhood memories of himself.In his sleep, he was on the scene again, and came to the playground covered with white mist in the early morning.Shouts, slogans, whistles, and the almost condensed drowsiness in the cold azure air, everything is so real.

He passed through layers of white mist, trying to find his mother.When I used to go to school, my father was very busy. Occasionally, I forgot to bring a pencil case or textbooks, and my mother always sent them to school.

Walking far away towards the school gate with the black fence, there are health workers checking the red scarves at the gate.Yu Yi had already seen a blurry figure standing outside the thick white mist, maybe it was his mother, or maybe it wasn't.

He suddenly remembered that he was already an adult and was about to turn three.

He is no longer a schoolboy.

Maybe he has always been waiting for someone, like the figure outside the school fence in childhood, quietly waiting for him.

Consciousness is like flowing water, gradually there is a flowing sound, gurgling, slowly, covered with spots of light.Then, consciousness gradually returned, his body pulled out from the cold dream, and returned to the warm, reassuring bed.

This is the smell of Luo Lian.

Yu Yi, who was confused, was clearly aware of this.

"Luo Lian..." He muttered and turned over.

After receiving no answer, Yu Yi's consciousness became clearer again, and the dream became farther and farther away, and finally disappeared completely.

Yu Yi opened his eyes, in a state of confusion, he lay on the bed for a while, fumbling for the phone beside the bed to check the time.

It was one o'clock in the morning again.In the past few days, for some reason, I feel flustered or irregular in work and rest, and sleepiness and sobriety are not at the right time.Soon he realized that he didn't wake up in his own bed, this was Luo Lian's room, but Luo Lian was not by his side.

Yu Yi rubbed his eyes and found that the clothes on his body had also been taken off. In a daze, he still had the impression that he was like a primary school student. Luo Lian stretched out his hand when he said, raised his butt when he said he would lift his butt, and then smoothly stuffed him in. in bed.

But what about Luo Lian and others?

Yu Yi rubbed his face, put on a coat casually, and strolled outside shirtless.Then he heard a small voice coming from the direction of the darkroom.

He lifted the skirt of his coat, barefoot, and walked towards the darkroom in a bold manner.

Strangely enough, Yu Yi's first reaction was not to wonder why Luo Lian was still in the darkroom so late. Compared to this, his senses were replaced by a more subtle emotion.

Everything is so familiar now, he still remembers this scene, it was the first time he and Luo Lian met.In other words, it couldn't be called a "meeting", but it was the first time he came into contact with Luo Lian.

It was a sunny afternoon, he had just finished taking photos with Qi Shengying, and then he fell asleep in this studio, and woke up from a cold dream in the early morning, and heard voices from the darkroom.At that time, he was also naked, walking towards Luo Lian in the darkroom.

Like scene restoration, everything is so similar.

Thinking about it now, it was almost as if he would meet Luo Lian there in the dark, linking the dream with all of this, it was as if he had received some indescribable summon.

Yu Yi didn't turn on the light, he stood barefoot in front of the dark room, the inside and outside of this door was pitch black, but he could clearly identify that Luo Lian was inside this door.

Pushing open the door, he softly called Luo Lian, his voice was hoarse and sexy when he just woke up.

There was a faint red light in the darkroom, and photos that had just been developed were floating on the water. They were spinning, ups and downs under the running water, just like the first time Yu Yi saw Luo Lian's developed himself.These photos are of the young Luo Xiping.

Luo Lian was standing on the other side of the darkroom, holding a piece of snow-white photo paper in his hand. He was not surprised that Yu Yi woke up and came, but he just responded lightly, and threw the photo paper into the potion. The traces gradually appeared.

Yu Yi noticed that the red light in the darkroom was much dimmer than usual this time.When he came here before, Luo Lian always turned on the security lights to the maximum, even though the room was extremely dark, he could still see everything clearly.But at this moment, the very dim red light, only by widening your eyes and carefully identifying it, can you recognize everything.

After Yu Yi approached the pool, looked carefully, and recognized Luo Lian's father on the photo paper, he smiled softly: "It seems that the knot in my heart has been opened."

One hand climbed onto Shangyu Yi's face, moist and warm: "I just miss you."

"For the time being." Yu turned his head to one side, and gently rubbed Luo Lian's palm like a small animal, "Does the long-distance relationship in the artist's eyes also have special value?"

"No, of course not." The moment he saw Yu Yi, Luo Lian finally found a way to relieve the anger that had been stuffed in his chest all night.

His thumb touched the corners of Yu Yi's delicate eyes, and the rubbing was almost ruthless, and the flash of desire in his eyes was caught by Yu Yi.
