Two days later, Jiang Yu white-collar Lu Jinyan went to visit his mother's grave.

The night before, there was a light rain, and when we got up in the morning, the whole city was shrouded in a layer of mist.

The road was a bit far away, so Lu Jinyan drove the Cayenne out on purpose, set up the navigation to the cemetery, and drove up the road to sweep the grave.

Jiang Yubai was sitting in the co-pilot with flowers in his arms, his eyes quietly fell on the car window, watching the wet marks left by the rain.

Lu Jinyan drove the car, watching the emotions of the people around him from time to time, but he didn't make a sound to disturb him.

After a while, Jiang Yubai said softly, "It's very strange, it rains on this day every year."

In previous years, he never held an umbrella when he went to sweep the grave. After returning from the rain, he would probably have a high fever, which lasted for more than half a month.

But this year, before he got out of the car, a black umbrella was firmly propped above his head.

After getting off the car, the two walked up the stone steps together.

They wore the same black coat today, and when they walked side by side, they looked like brotherly brothers and close lovers.

After walking for a while, Jiang Yubai stopped in front of a tomb: "Mom, I'm here to see you."

Lu Jinyan looked at the tombstone, and there was a black and white photo on the tombstone.

The young woman in the photo has a beautiful face and a gentle smile on the corner of her lips. Even in the old black and white photos, you can vaguely see the bright eyes and peerless elegance of her life.

Jiang Yubai leaned down and put the lily in front of the tombstone: "It's been a long time since I came to see you, this time I brought someone to see you."

Lu Jinyan came back to his senses, put the fruit basket in his hand next to the lily, and stammered as soon as he opened his mouth: "Mom—auntie, I, I'm Lu Jinyan!"

"His name is Lu Jinyan, and he is my boyfriend." Jiang Yubai stared at the photo on the tombstone, and introduced to his mother seriously, "He treats me very well, and if there are no accidents, we will be together for a long, long time."

"Of course there will be no accidents!" Lu Jinyan grabbed his hand anxiously, with a firm and determined tone, "We will be together in this life, if you want, I want to book in advance in the next life."

Jiang Yubai didn't speak, but shook his hand vigorously.

Lu Jinyan adjusted his fingers clasped together, and looked directly at the smiling eyes in the photo: "Auntie, I swear to you here - I will love Jiang Yubai unreservedly in this life, protect him as much as I can, and stand forever To be by his side, to share with him everything I have."

"Don't swear..." Jiang Yubai's eyelashes trembled slightly, and his tone was a bit difficult, "I don't need you to swear, Lu Jinyan."

There are too many people who swear, and it is too easy to break the oath, even without paying any price.

He had a living example right before his eyes.

"This is my promise to Auntie, so that she will give you to me with confidence." Lu Jinyan looked solemn, as if he was really talking to his sweetheart's relatives, "I will fulfill my vow for the rest of my life, please Auntie to witness. "

Jiang Yubai's throat choked, tears welled up in his eyes, and his vision gradually became blurred.

Lu Jinyan let go of his hand and said in a low voice, "Xiaobai, you can talk to Auntie alone."

After finishing speaking, he stuffed the umbrella handle into his hand, and took a few steps down the steps by himself, leaving the mother and child to be alone.

Jiang Yubai stood silently in front of the tomb for a long time, then squatted down, and wiped the rainwater off the photo with his sleeve.

"Mom, I'm going to move forward." His fingers lightly stroked the strange yet familiar face, and he murmured, "I used to think that if even I could get out, there would still be more people in this world." Who will remember your existence? But now I understand that I will never forget you, but now there is one more person who will remember you with me."

The woman in the photo is smiling and staring at her child, which is a kind of eternal tenderness from a mother.

Jiang Yubai took one last look and stood up: "I'm leaving, I'll see you next time."

He walked down the steps holding an umbrella, and Lu Jinyan immediately raised his foot to meet him: "Have you finished whispering?"

"Yeah." Jiang Yubai nodded, raised his arms and caged him under the umbrella, "Hair is all wet."

"It's okay." Lu Jinyan stroked his wet bangs indifferently, and took the umbrella handle naturally, "Do you want to go back now?"

Jiang Yubai let out a breath: "Yes, go back and get some things."

The Jiang family was not far from the cemetery, and they drove into the villa area within 10 minutes.

Under Jiang Yubai's command, Lu Jinyan successfully parked the car in front of the single-family villa gate.

"I'll probably get into an argument with Jiang Mingyue later, so don't worry about it." Before Jiang Yubai drove the door, he vaccinated his boyfriend first, "I will try my best to solve it as quickly as possible, just stand behind me."

Lu Jinyan responded with a smile: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Jiang Yubai got out of the car and walked into the gate of the villa first.

"Young master?" An older woman walked out of the inner door, and shouted loudly with surprise on her face, "Young master is back!"

"Mother Wu." Jiang Yubai stopped, "How are you doing recently?"

"Okay, okay!" Wu Ma took his hand, looked up and down lovingly, "I haven't been home for a long time, I lost a lot of weight..."

"Not thin, Mama Wu." Jiang Yubai smiled slightly, turned around and said, "Let me introduce you, this is my... good friend."

"Mother Wu." Lu Jinyan stepped forward and greeted politely, "My name is Lu Jinyan, you can call me Xiaolu."

It was only then that Mama Wu noticed that there was a tall and handsome young man, and her tone was both surprised and joyful: "Friend? This is the first time the young master has brought a friend to the house!"

Satisfied in Lu Jinyan's heart, the big tail behind him raised unconsciously: "That's right, I'm Xiaobai's best male-sex friend."

"Hey hey hey! So good..." Wu Ma was filled with emotion for a moment, she lifted her apron to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, "I'm going to add some dishes right away!"

Jiang Yubai wanted to say that there was no need to add more food, and they would leave immediately, but Wu Ma had already hurried back to the kitchen.

"Let's go in too." He walked in helplessly, and then turned his head as he walked, "Mama Wu is old and doesn't know much about trendy things. I'm afraid she won't be able to accept it for a while."

Lu Jinyan was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "I know, no need to explain, Xiaobai."

Jiang Yubai felt relieved, as soon as he stepped into the inner door, a soft voice came from his ear: "Xiaobai is back?"

A lady in a long dress walked over gracefully, with jewels and exquisite makeup, she looked no older than 30 years old.

Jiang Yubai paused slightly, without even looking at her, she went straight to the stairs.

"Aunt Lin is greeting you, can't you hear me?" Jiang Mingyue was sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper, and reprimanded him severely, "Your upbringing has gone to the dog's stomach?"

"Sorry." Jiang Yubai turned to look at him, "I was born by a mother, but not taught by a father. Did you know it on the first day?"

"You—" One sentence successfully angered Jiang Mingyue, and he slammed the newspaper on the coffee table, "You just want to piss me off when you go home, don't you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly found a strange young man following his son, and had to suppress his anger for a while: "Is this your friend?"

Lu Jinyan didn't say a word, it was rare for him to lose his courtesy, and he didn't even give a nod.

"It has nothing to do with you." Jiang Yubai replied blankly, "I just came home to get what belongs to me."

Regardless of the presence of outsiders, Jiang Mingyue raised his voice and cursed: "What's yours? Everything in this house is mine, and everything you eat, live, and use is mine for you!"

"I will return it to you." Jiang Yubai said calmly, "Can I go up now?"

"Repay? What will you pay back?" Jiang Ming stood up suddenly, "I am your father, what will I pay for your life?"

"Sorry, let me interrupt." Lu Jinyan still couldn't help it, and said sneeringly, "Xiaobai's mother is pregnant for ten months, and she is also the one who gave birth to Xiaobai desperately. Besides providing a worthless sperm Besides, what else did you offer?"

"You, you——" Jiang Mingyue was stunned speechless, his face turned blue and red, and he could only point at the door angrily, "Get out! Get out for me! This is my family business, and it's not up to you, an outsider Talk more!"

Jiang Yubai replied coldly: "You don't need to rush, we will leave right away after we get the things."

"Jiang Yubai!" Jiang Mingyue's face was livid, and he was so angry that he couldn't breathe well. Ms. Lin who was beside him hurried over to support him.

"Oh, there is no overnight feud between father and son. What can't you father and son sit down and talk about?" Ms. Lin tried to smooth things over, "Xiaobai finally came back, how about—"

"Does it have something to do with you?" Jiang Yubai looked at the face piled up in layers, feeling sick for a while, "Even if my mother passed away for 18 years, you can't compare to a strand of her hair, and it's your turn to talk about her behind her back." Is it a short-lived ghost?"

Ms. Lin's body froze, her eyes widened, and she explained in a panicked tone: "Ming Yue, I, I didn't!"

"If you want people not to know, you have to do nothing." Jiang Yubai sneered, "Mr. Jiang, you definitely don't want to know how your wife insulted your dead ex-wife behind her back."

"Get out!" Jiang Mingyue waved away the hand that was holding him, and shouted angrily, "Bitch, get out of here!"

Ms. Lin had never seen her husband get so angry at her. She was so frightened that she even held back her tears, so she covered her face with her hands and left in a hurry.

Jiang Yubai didn't want to look any further, so he turned around and walked upstairs, followed closely by Lu Jinyan.

Pushing open the door, Lu Jinyan looked at the bedroom calmly, his eyes fell on the blocked windows, and instantly remembered Xiaobai's childhood when he was locked up, and his heart ached.

"Most of my things have been taken to school, and there are few left." Jiang Yubai opened the locked drawer with a key, took out a box of old video tapes and put them in his pocket, and packed some clothes into his bag, "Yes Alright, let's go."

When he went downstairs again, Jiang Mingyue sat on the sofa again, calmed down a bit from his rage, and asked in a deep voice, "Are you planning not to come back again?"

"En." Jiang Yubai responded, "I will return the money you have spent on me over the years."

Jiang Mingyue suddenly became excited again: "Is this family so disgusting to you?"

"All along, you are the one who hates me." Jiang Yubai looked at him with an uncontrollable sadness in his eyes, "But now that you have married a new wife and have a new life, you don't have to remind me all the time. I killed my mother, and I don't have to keep reminding you that you broke your vow."

Jiang Mingyue's lips were trembling. For the first time, he couldn't say anything, so he could only sit slumped on the sofa.

Just when Jiang Yubai was about to step out of the house, a weak voice came from behind: "Back then, your mother...actually left some things for you."

Jiang Yubai trembled all over, and turned around quickly.

It was the underground warehouse of a villa, and Jiang Yubai had never set foot there for so many years.

In fact, his scope of activities in this villa is limited to his own room and the living room and kitchen.

The heavy wooden door opened slowly, and a whole room of presents came into view.

Jiang Yubai was stunned for several seconds before stepping cautiously into the dusty room.

Under the bright light, the dust covered on the piano keys must be visible. He walked to the gift wall step by step, starting from the gift cabinet on the far left.

A colored note was pasted on the door of the cupboard. The paper had turned yellow due to the age, but the handwriting on it was still recognizable: [Happy [-]st birthday, I wish mother's baby a long life! ]

Opening the cabinet, there is a longevity lock and a pair of silver bracelets inside, which are very suitable for a one-year-old milk baby.

Jiang Yubai closed her eyes, closed the cabinet door and took off the second note: [Happy [-]nd birthday, mom's baby has learned to walk~]

In the cabinet is a pair of baby shoes woven from wool. There are two little white rabbits embroidered on the toe, which are miniature and cute.

The third birthday gift is a children's toy car and a family of three bear dolls.

[Happy [-]rd birthday, does my baby like toys or dolls? ]

The fourth birthday gift is a jelly schoolbag, the fifth birthday gift is a puzzle, the sixth birthday gift is a red scarf, the seventh birthday gift is a bloody comic book, the eighth, ninth, tenth... …

Until opening the No.12 gift, touching the familiar brushes and paints with his fingers, Jiang Yubai bit his lower lip tightly, and big tears rolled down one after another, hitting the floor with a crisp sound.

Lu Jinyan behind him noticed something strange, put his arms around his shoulders, and coaxed him in a low voice: "Xiaobai, cry if you want to cry..."

Jiang Yubai threw himself into his arms trembling all over, tears poured out continuously, and he opened his mouth, but his throat seemed to be choked by something, no matter what he couldn't make a sound, only his body trembled more and more.

"Cry out loud, Xiaobai..." Lu Jinyan's heart ached so badly that he could only hold the trembling person in his arms tightly with his hands, and his voice was a little choked up, "She really loves you very much, she has never been absent from you growing up."

"Oh..." Jiang Yubai finally squeezed out a hoarse and broken cry from his throat, and cried heart-piercingly in his arms, crying so hard that he was out of breath and almost fainted from crying.

Jiang Mingyue stood at the door, holding the door frame unsteadily, looking at the crying son in the gift room, as if he had aged ten years in an instant.

Lu Jinyan kept stroking his trembling body back and forth, fearing that he would really faint, so he simply hugged him horizontally, wanting to take him out to calm down.

When passing by the door, Jiang Yubai raised his tear-stained face, and for the first time stared at his biological father with almost hostile eyes.

"I hate you, Jiang Mingyue." He said in a low and hoarse voice, "I will never forgive you in this life."
