——What do you mean by that?

Surprised, Lu Yuxing lowered his head to meet Tang Tang's eyes.

At this moment, he truly felt that life was uncontrollable.His first reaction was that Tang Tang was lying. After calming down and thinking about it, he felt that it didn't make sense.

He doesn't remember that he knew Tang Tang before, but he can't guarantee whether Tang Tang knew himself "yesterday".

After thinking for a while, Lu Yuxing chose to throw this question back to Tang Tang in an attempt to get more information.

"Ok?"

He responded noncommittally from his nasal cavity, his tone rising.

Tang Tang's shoulders slumped, like a big rabbit with its head down. "Sorry, I was the one to be abrupt." He sighed, raised his hand and scratched his hair, as if he was afraid that Lu Yu would murder him. "You said that you don't like physical contact. I thought...it would make you feel a little bit better."

Lu Yuxing frowned, carefully distinguishing the truth from his expression.

Sensing the other party's scrutiny, Tang Tang raised his eyes to look at him with a puzzled expression. "Ah Xing, you are so strange today."

Lu Yuxing's heart skipped a beat, he looked back quietly and stretched his eyebrows. "Is there?" He turned his head and looked away, "Maybe it was because I was too tired from studying for the exam."

After chatting back and forth for a few times, he roughly understood the relationship between himself and this boy.

——They should be young couples who have not made it public and have just been together.

He doesn't know if the "before" self really liked Tang Tang, but he can be sure that he still doesn't like this boy now.

Lu Yuxing rubbed the center of his brows, and tried his best to play the role of "20-year-old Lu Yuxing".

The bus hasn't come yet.

He looked at Tang Tang's back, and continued to ask: "I've been lying at home all day today, why didn't you come to me?"

"I..." Tang Tang turned around and fluttered his long eyelashes twice, "I'm afraid of disturbing you." He lowered his head slightly, and when he spoke, his eyes were fixed on Lu Yuxing nervously.Because of the height difference, Lu Yuxing's eyes fell on his soft and lovely nose.

The bus drove into the station slowly, Lu Yuxing stretched out his hand to help him by the shoulder, and led him into the bus.

There were very few people in the car, only a few white-collar workers who were off the night shift leaned against the window and took a nap.The two chose a back seat and sat down. Lu Yuxing looked up at the very old-fashioned stop sign and asked, "Where do you live?"

"Xiangtan Road." Tang Tang replied, then turned his head and asked cautiously: "You...don't remember?"

Lu Yuxing only knows that Xiangtan Road is in the suburbs, and behind the street is the Haitang Mountain Scenic Area, which is the so-called wealthy area.He did know quite a few entertainers who lived there, but that was ten years later.

Realizing that he was cheating, Lu Yuxing coughed and said, "Remember, I was just joking with you."

Tang Tang sighed softly, noncommittal.

The two remained silent all the way.The bus shuttled through the night market, crossed the viaduct and the harbor in the city center, and headed to the suburbs.Lu Yuxing's mind was in a mess, he thought about what happened today several times over and over again, feeling a little irritable.

He turned his head and glanced at Tang Tang who fell asleep leaning on his shoulder at some point, and his doubts became even more serious.

A strand of the boy's front hair was slightly curled up. He was obviously a guy who was almost 20 years old, but he looked cute and cute.Lu Yuxing stared at this face for a long while, then chuckled inwardly with some disdain.

For this person, he didn't even bother to refuse.Anyway, he never cared about the relationship between lovers, and it doesn't matter if there is one more or one less around him.He doesn't seem to have the ability to like someone, nor does he have the energy to fall in love.

He is not afraid of having an extra boyfriend by his side, what he is afraid of is that this person has other plans.

From Tang Tang's few words, Lu Yuxing realized that the other party cared about him very much.Why did a young master who lived in a wealthy area come to curry favor with a college student from an ordinary family?

He went through countless conspiracies in his mind, but the person on his shoulder slept soundly.Tang Tang even unconsciously rubbed his cheek back and forth on his shoulder like a small animal.

When the Xiangtan Road station arrived, Lu Yuxing woke Tang Tang up, helped him by the shoulders and took him out of the car.

"Well, are you here yet?" Tang Tang rubbed his eyes, and the broken hair on his forehead was messed up because he was sleeping on his shoulders.Lu Yuxing got out of the car with him and stood facing each other in the evening wind.

Lu Yuxing wanted to say something, so he pretended to raise his hand to fix his hair.

However, as soon as he reached out to touch his soft and fluffy hair, Tang Tang reached out and grabbed his wrist.

"I'm going back."

His hands are a little cold.I don't know if it's because the wind in late autumn is too cold. When Lu Yuxing looked at him, he found that the tip of his nose was also red from the cold.

"Go back, pay attention to safety on the road, and remember to take medicine."

Lu Yuxing finished speaking as if reciting his lines, then unnaturally withdrew his hand and hung it by his side.

"You should also pay attention to safety." Tang Tang looked worried, and timidly grabbed his hand again, "...rest early."

The return car left the magnificent streets and stopped at Hong Kong City University Station.

Lu Yuxing's palm still had the touch of Tang Tang.I don't know what kind of magical power this boyfriend he met for the first time had, but when he heard him say "rest early", Lu Yuxing felt sleepy and inadvertently quickened his pace to go home.

He walked through the school gate, staring in a daze at the brightly lit student dormitory not far away, and returned to the house he rented in the residential building on campus.He has been renting this house since his freshman year. It is [-] square meters with one bedroom and two living rooms. Living alone is a bit empty.He has always disliked group life, and has always lived alone from college to work, even when he bought a villa later. The housekeeper aunt has cleaned him up for several years and left every time.

Returning to Hong Kong City University again, it seems that old yellowed and faded photos have been recolored, and those things that have lost their luster in life have been retouched and come alive with the years.

When he got home, Lu Yuxing took off his clothes and got into the bathtub to take a bath.

The feeling of hot water enveloping his whole body completely made him give up thinking.Lu Yuxing lowered his head and saw the scar on his hand in the ripples of light, took a deep breath, and plunged into the water.

The sound of water droplets in my ears was instantly drowned out, leaving only the low-pitched water like a ghost.The pressure in the lungs came up little by little, and Lu Yuxing felt that the air in his body was quickly sucked out.He opened his mouth to exhale the rest of the air, feeling the suffocation as if his life was gone.

The sound of the huge water evokes some palpitating memories. Lu Yuxing closed his eyes, but he could still feel countless flashing lights one after another. The pale lights passed through his eyelids, throwing out his lingering heart and throwing it bloody all over the city. in front of people.

"Mr. Lu Yuxing, do you have anything to say about the outside world's perception of your debut film? Insiders broke the news that it is full of third-level vulgar content. Is it true?"

"Mr. Lu Yuxing, are the plots in this new work of yours personal experience?"

"Relevant people in the circle broke the news that your work was blocked because it failed the review, so is it no longer considered for domestic release?"

"A reporter photographed you and several female artists of the same company going out and out of bars at night. Is it true?"

"It is said that the paparazzi found psychotropic drugs in your trash can. How do you explain it?"

Those voices drilled into the ears all at once, and finally mixed into a terrifying shriek, turning into a pale monster, strangling Lu Yuxing's throat.

He didn't struggle, just waiting for death.

--"I waited for you a long time."

Tang Tang's fair little face came to mind again.Lu Yuxing woke up suddenly, raised his head and pulled it out of the water, breathing in the moist air greedily.

He scrambled out of the tub and stood barefoot on the cold tile floor.The solid and powerful muscles of his body rose and fell with his big mouthfuls of breath, like a drowning beast.

The mirror in the bathroom was covered with a layer of mist, and only the outline of the figure could be barely seen.Lu Yuxing breathed calmly, supported the sink with one hand, and wiped off a small drop of water on the mirror with the other.

After wiping off the mist on the mirror, Lu Yuxing saw the gradually clear eyebrows and smooth muscle lines in the mirror, but there was a huge contrast, as if this body did not belong to him.

He stared at the young man in the mirror, and a feeling of pity welled up.
