Lima syndrome

"How could this be?"

Bai Zhiyan looked around and saw that it was indeed pitch black. When he turned his head, he met Che Jingcan's unblinking eyes.

The two looked at each other, and Che Jingcan vaguely saw his own small reflection in his eyes in the moonlight. Perhaps because of the sudden power outage, Bai Zhiyan's eyes were not as cold as usual, and a trace of fear flashed across his pupils.

A tiny bit of light flashed in his eyes, like a shooting star. Che Jingcan wished he could make a wish with this light, asking him to stay by his side forever.

He approached slowly, and he could clearly feel his unstable breath hitting his fluttering eyelashes. Bai Zhiyan turned his head uncomfortably, trying to avoid it.

What Che Jingcan hated most was seeing him avoiding him, whether it was when he first met her and ran away as if he had seen the plague god, or when he became annoyed and distant after she confessed her love to him later on, it was easy to get upset and drive him crazy.

"Bai Zhiyan..."

When Bai Zhiyan heard him calling his name, his heart trembled and a hint of evasion flashed in his eyes, but Che Jingcan did not allow him to escape. He held his shoulders and wanted to continue telling him his inner monologue.

He wanted to use the moonlight to say some tender words in an attempt to warm his heart which had been as cold as a glacier for thousands of years, but a whimpering sound broke his fantasy.

"Woo..."

Li Shanyu was frightened by the sudden stop of the box, and he grabbed Bai Zhiyan's clothes and sobbed anxiously.

"Sunwoo, don't be afraid, your uncle is here."

He looked away and patted the child's back and whispered soothing words to him.

Shit, the good atmosphere is ruined again.

Che Jingcan cursed in his heart. If he had confessed his feelings in such a good atmosphere just now, there would have been at least a 50% chance of success.

He sat back in his seat dejectedly, scratched his hair and looked out the window with some annoyance.

At this time, the night had completely fallen and they were at the top of the Ferris wheel. Except for the building they were in, the amusement park was surrounded by a night scene with bright lights.

When Bai Zhiyan saw that Li Shanyu stopped trembling, he unconsciously looked out the window. His soft profile was reflected on the window surface, and the faint moonlight made his profile blurry.

At this moment, both of them were looking out the window in unison. They were obviously doing the same thing and in the same space, but they seemed like two completely non-intersecting parallel lines, as if there was an invisible galaxy between them. No matter how hard the person opposite them screamed and dragged, they could not get close to the other even a bit.

Che Jingcan looked at the people opposite him who were also enjoying the night view, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated. He remembered what the girls in his class had said.

"Bai Zhiyan."

He called out his name again.

"What's the matter with you?"

Bai Zhiyan thought he was having another attack and glanced at him impatiently.

Che Jingcan did not answer, but chose to tell him with actions.

He stood up and bent down to get closer to Bai Zhiyan. In the darkness, people's reaction speed slowed down. By the time Bai Zhiyan noticed his movement, the distance between them was less than three inches, and their breaths were constantly entangled.

Bai Zhiyan was shocked and wanted to raise his head and step back, but Che Jingcan was one step faster than him. He covered Li Shanyu's eyes first and then pressed on him in a very strong posture.

The two were too close, and Bai Zhiyan hated his physical contact with her. Her hair stood on end and she turned her head away to avoid his burning gaze.

"I once heard girls in my class say that two people who kiss on a Ferris wheel will be together forever."

He whispered in Bai Zhiyan's ear. Bai Zhiyan's scalp tingled when he heard his words. He looked at the confused man in front of him in disbelief, thinking that he was absolutely crazy to believe such rumors.

"What the hell are you talking about."

He tried to wake him up from his unrealistic delusions with his cold voice.

"You'll know after you try it."

As soon as Che Jingcan finished speaking, he couldn't wait to kiss Bai Zhiyan on the mouth. This time he just touched it lightly, and their lips touched, as if it was the most innocent kiss in the world.

Bai Zhiyan's mind went blank. He was about to push him away, but Che Jingcan immediately pulled away. His eyes were filled with joy as he was satisfied.

“Jiyan, I’m serious.”

After hearing his words and seeing his appearance, Bai Zhiyan was so angry that he was shaking.

"You are not allowed to—"

Just when he was about to scold him, the lights in the box suddenly came on, and the surroundings were suddenly brightly lit. The two were now very close, and Bai Zhiyan saw his eyes that were like twinkling stars.

"Look, the light is on."

Che Jingcan's upturned eyes are already charming when he smiles. At this moment, he is truly in love. When he is moved, his eyes are softer than spring water. When his eyes move, Bai Zhiyan sees a deep sea, and he is in the center of this sea.

"It's a blessing from heaven."

His voice was as gentle as the wind, mixed with a unique boyish feeling, clear and transparent, reaching deep into his brain.

Bai Zhiyan's heart suddenly skipped a beat and he hurriedly covered the other person's eyes, trying to block that scorching gaze.

However, doing so did not calm him down. Instead, it made his inner restlessness even more intense. He felt his rapid breathing and hot cheeks, and felt as if he was trapped in an uncontrollable vortex of emotions.

"Don't, don't say it."

The Ferris wheel began to run in an orderly manner. Li Shanyu, with his eyes covered, felt the vibration and began to struggle.

The box was extremely weird for a moment. Cha Kyung-chan covered Li Shanyu's eyes, and Baek Ji-yeon covered Che Kyung-chan's eyes.

"Go back and sit down."

He realized that his action was too abnormal, turned his head, withdrew his hand, and gently pushed Che Jingcan.

Che Jingcan sat back opposite him, and Li Shanyu finally regained his sight.

"The important ceremony has been completed, so let's see if this rumor is credible."

His clear and pleasant voice rang out again, like the sound of birds flying out of the valley in the early morning, but Bai Zhiyan did not dare to look at him, as if that face had an extremely strong attraction, and he would be deeply attracted as long as he took a look at it. He didn't know what was wrong with him. His heart was beating extremely violently, even several times faster than when he was fighting with others.

Li Shanyu looked at the two of them with a confused look on his face, his heart full of doubts. He really couldn't understand why his uncle's face turned so red.

Time passed minute by minute, and finally the time came to land. However, Bai Zhiyan did not say a word from beginning to end. He became more and more uneasy. At this moment, he urgently needed a quiet environment to sort out his chaotic thoughts and inner feelings.

Seeing that he was about to leave without even saying hello, Che Jingcan didn't want to miss the last chance to spend time together today, so he quickly grabbed his hand and said, "I'm driving today and I'll take you back."

"Do not touch me!"

Bai Zhiyan's body trembled and he waved his hand away. Che Jingcan didn't expect him to react so strongly. His arm was hurt by the slap and he looked at him in surprise.

"you……"

Bai Zhiyan also knew that he was in a bad mood, but he couldn't show it.

"No need, I've asked Driver Zhou to wait for us outside the door, you should go back soon too."

After saying this in a hurry, he took Li Shanyu away. Che Jingcan didn't bother him anymore and shouted something intriguing at his back.

"What I say is always true."

Although the voice was small, Bai Zhiyan heard it clearly. He felt a chill on his back and just wanted to get away from this place of trouble as quickly as possible. Perhaps he would never come to the amusement park again.

His restless heart could not calm down until he returned to the Bai family. He had no time to take care of Li Shanyu for the time being. He went into the bathroom alone and soaked in the bathtub.

He was still thinking about the electric shock feeling in his heart just now. Unlike palpitations, this was the first time he had such a feeling.

Could it be that you are still moved?

But he immediately denied this idea. He could explain what happened today by the suspension bridge effect, or by the fact that he was momentarily bewitched by his appearance. But the only thing he couldn't explain was that he was attracted to him. That was too ridiculous.

If he could still have feelings for the person who abused him in his previous life, then that was masochism. He couldn't let his rebirth become ridiculous.

The water in the bathtub made his face red, and he unconsciously raised his arms to look at the light brown scars on his arms. He was still having nightmares recently, but the frequency was much less than when he was just reborn, and he no longer hurt himself in his sleep.

He thought everything was moving in a good direction, but the only thing he had overlooked was the relationship between people.

He has avoided all the bad things in this life, but there are always unexpected changes, such as Che Jingcan's feelings for him, Xu Shiyuan's paranoia towards him, Bai Jiying's sudden return to China, and Che Jingcan's second confession today.

Obviously everything has changed, but he is still trapped in a maze with no exit. Perhaps this is the consequence of his tampering with God's will.

People are always trapped in traps of their own making.

Bai Zhiyan gradually immersed his body in the water until the water level covered his head. The crazy feeling of suffocation made his mind clear, and then he stood up and pulled himself away from the pain of dying.

Since he can't figure it out, then just don't think about it. He will not accept Che Jingcan. The illusion that appeared tonight may be a warning for him not to indulge in unnecessary feelings. Those who are trapped by love are losers.

He can die from bullying and humiliation, but he cannot die from love.

Two days later, Bai Jiying knew that Bai Zhiyan was about to start classes, so he found a nanny to help take care of his son and also completed the transfer procedures for Li Shanyu. When Bai Jiying was about to take him away, the little curly-haired boy grabbed Bai Zhiyan and cried incoherently.

"I don't want my uncle..."

It was also the first time that Bai Jiying saw his son throwing a tantrum like this. No matter how hard he tried to pull him apart, he wouldn't be able to do so. He had to look at Bai Zhiyan for help.

Bai Zhiyan was also reluctant to let Li Shanyu leave, but he was not a child anymore. He sighed, bent down to wipe his tears, and still spoke in the same tone as usual to coax him.

"Our Sunwoo is a good boy, don't cry."

"I want my uncle..."

The little curly-haired girl threw herself into his arms, her tears wetting Bai Zhiyan's shoulders.

"Sunwoo can also come to see his uncle during school holidays. A good child should not miss school."

Bai Zhiyan tried to persuade him patiently, but how could a crying child listen to him? He just felt that he would never see him again.

While the few people were still in a stalemate, Bai Jitai came down from the second floor. He seemed to be awakened by their noise and looked unhappy.

He walked closer to Li Shanyu who was still holding Bai Zhiyan and said softly, "Why are you crying so miserably?"

At this time, Bai Jitai had just woken up and had not changed his clothes. He was wearing a full black silk pajamas with the top two buttons unbuttoned. The black snake tattoo inside was faintly visible with his movements.

Seeing this, Bai Zhiyan quickly turned his head away. He was really traumatized by snakes.

Seeing Bai Zhiyan turning his head, Bai Jitai snorted coldly and buttoned up his shirt.

When Li Shanyu saw him coming, he held Bai Zhiyan's hand even tighter. Bai Zhiyan felt his body trembling and thought that this child was so afraid of Bai Jitae.

"Li Shanyu." Bai Jitai called his name and bent his knees slightly to grab the back of his collar.

"Why can't you bear to part with your younger uncle? I, as the older uncle, feel very sad to hear that."

He sounded aggrieved, but his tone was cold, and his hands were strong enough to pull Li Shanyu out of Bai Zhiyan's arms.

"I like my uncle..."

Li Shanyu didn't dare to look at him, with his head down, his hands still tightly grasping the corner of Bai Zhiyan's clothes.

"But I like my uncle too. You've been monopolizing him for so many days, and I can't play with him."

He said this calmly, which made Bai Zhiyan feel a chill in his heart. When it comes to talking nonsense, Bai Jitai is really an expert.

Li Shanyu stammered and said nothing, but the strength in his hands slowly relaxed.

"This is a good boy."

Bai Jitai smiled wickedly and rubbed Li Shanyu's head lightly. The latter quickly dodged after being touched by him, and did not pull Bai Zhiyan anymore, but turned around to hug Bai Jiying's waist.

But he didn't care at all that the kids hated him. He raised his eyebrows and greeted Bai Jiying indifferently.

"Big sister, do you want me to take you back?"

Although it is a question, it does not mean to ask a question to anyone at all. It seems like a kind of politeness and manners that one has to pretend to be extremely unfamiliar with.

Bai Zhiyan thought that it was difficult for him to put on a show in front of Bai Jiying.

Bai Jiying naturally knew that he was just being polite, so he gently rejected him, "No need, Jitai, the driver is waiting for us outside."

This family is full of actors who are addicted to acting.

"Okay, big sister, you must come home and visit when you have time."

As he was speaking, he suddenly pulled Bai Zhiyan over, put his arm around his shoulders and waved to Bai Jiying. To an outsider, his action would definitely be a picture of brotherly love and harmonious relationship, provided that Bai Jiying did not see Bai Zhiyan's stiff body and his subconscious attempt to struggle free.

Bai Jiying looked at Bai Zhiyan thoughtfully, and seeing that his face looked grim and his hands and feet were unnatural, he almost understood what was going on with these two people.

"Okay, Ji Tae Ji Yeon, I'll leave first. We'll contact each other when we have time."

After she left, Bai Zhiyan was finally able to shake off his hand that was holding him down tightly.

"Everyone has left, so stop acting."

"play?"
