Countdown to Poverty Eradication

Di Ye sat cross-legged on the boat and watched the ripples on the lake.

Lu Xun rowed slowly with his paddle, while Di Ye ate chilled cherries and asked with great interest, "Does this artificial lake in your house need to be changed?"

"It takes a lot of time to change it once a year. My mother originally wanted to build a garden. At the beginning, Lu Yu clamored to build a lake, saying that he wanted to row a boat at night to see the night view. My mother couldn't persuade him, so he built an artificial lake."

"Your brother knows life well"

"But now he is clamoring to fill the lake, and he wants to build a garden, and he will sketch in the flower shed when summer comes."

Di Ye shrugged: "Your brother can really make a fuss."

"Maybe people who engage in art have always been like this, and the ideas in their minds are always very changeable."

After Di Ye finished eating the cherries, the noon sun came out. He raised his hand to cover his face and said to Lu Xun, "Go back by boat, it's so hot."

Lu Xun docked the boat, and the two returned to the old house. At this time, there were only the two of them in the old house. Lu Yu went to an art exhibition, Lu's mother accompanied Lu's father to the reception, and the huge house was suddenly vacant.

Di Ye wiped the sweat from his head and ran to Lu Xun's bathroom to take a shower. It has to be said that the life of a rich man is comfortable and luxurious. Lu Xun's own room alone is more than [-] square meters, with its own private bathroom.

Di Ye came out wearing a bath towel. Lu Xun left the hair dryer on the bedroom desk after blow-drying his hair yesterday.

This desk was made by Lu's mother for Lu Xun when he first started studying. It is a very simple log-colored desk. There is a log-colored footstool under the desk, and a pair of folding canes are placed behind the footstool.

The silver-gray rod has a very high-grade gloss, and the handle is covered with a layer of light gray rubber.

Di Ye grabbed the towel and squatted in front of the desk and took out his crutches. The crutches were much lighter than expected, probably made of an alloy with low density but high strength.

Lu Xun has a hidden knee disease, and his legs were deformed when he was a child. He has always remembered that period of time, until today when Di Ye saw this pair of crutches, he only glimpsed a faint corner of that period of time.

Di Ye put back his crutches and stood up. A thick white photo album was placed horizontally on the log bookshelf of the same color above the desk. Perhaps there were photos of Lu Xun when he was a child.

But it is a very bad behavior to turn over personal belongings without the owner's permission. After turning his eyes around the photo album a few times, Di Ye couldn't help but dragged the bath towel and walked out of the room, leaning on the carved railing upstairs to drink. Lu Xun of Shui shouted loudly: "I saw a photo album on your bookshelf, I want to see it, can I see it?"

Lu Xun's brows moved slightly, he put down his water glass and looked up at Di Ye, after a moment of silence, he walked upstairs along the spiral staircase, all the way to Di Ye's side.

Di Ye's hair was not dried, and the drops of water dripping from the ends of his hair rolled down his slender neck and onto his abdominal muscles, slowly sinking into the white towel around Di Ye's waist in a very imaginative gesture , Lu Xun squeezed the space between his eyebrows, and his voice was a little hoarse: "I can see it. Before watching, dry your hair and change your clothes."

Di Ye quickly kissed him on the face, and after the kiss, he hurriedly turned around and ran into the room, apparently very interested in the photo album.

Lu Xun touched the area on his face where Di Ye's lips brushed, and gave a shallow smile, like a helpless and sweet sigh.

After blowing his hair and changing his clothes at lightning speed, Di Ye excitedly picked up the textured photo album. The leather cover was delicate and soft, and a small piece of square kraft paper was pasted in the center, on which was written A line of fine print: If there is a destiny, then I look forward to meeting him again.

This line of small characters was chiseled out like a sharp axe, and each stroke almost pierced through the paper and penetrated into the cover.

The last stroke of the last word has scratched the paper, which shows how hard Lu Xun was writing the pen and how excited he was when he wrote this line of small characters.

The photo album in my hand suddenly becomes heavy, and any item stained with sincere emotion will become heavy.

He opened the photo album, and there was a line of date written on the thick golden title page - 09/9/20

Lu Xun opened the door and came in. Di Ye looked at the date for a long time, but for some reason suddenly lost interest in flipping through the photo album.

He hadn't met Lu Xun in 17. At that time, Lu Xun was [-] years old. It was the year when he made up his mind to go abroad for corrective surgery. It was the most painful time.Lu Xun has always been unwilling to show his fragility and pain to anyone, and never wants anyone to see his imperfect side.

Di Ye is well aware of this, and he also knows that Lu Xun will never refuse any of his requests. Moreover, no matter how exciting and moving the story is at this time, it has nothing to do with him. If this is the case, why should he go over the scars of others.

The album was closed by him, Lu Xun was surprised: "Why don't you read it?"

Wasn't she still excited just now?

Di Ye sighed: "Forget it, wasn't 09 the year when you went abroad for surgery? I felt scared when I thought that the success rate was only half at that time, and I didn't dare to watch it."

Lu Xun's lips twitched, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, just smiled and said: "Actually...it's nothing, I've always pursued perfection, and I can't stand other people's imperfections, and I can't stand it." I'm not perfect, so I'm always in pain, and I'm always disappointed in myself"

Di Ye stared at him: "No one is perfect."

Lu Xun focused his eyes on the cover of the photo album. He looked at the small words, his eyes filled with memories: "Yes, no one is perfect, and nothing is perfect. Even so, I still fall into the pursuit of perfection." I can’t get rid of the vortex of my life, but I myself, who pursue perfection so much, am a very imperfect existence. I don’t even understand whether my own extremes cause me to hate my own incompleteness, or my own incompleteness leads to my extremes.”

He smiled slightly: "Even though I have a pair of healthy-looking legs now, I still hate me at that time."

Di Ye rejoiced in his heart—fortunately, he didn't open the photo album.

He looked at Lu Xun, who was caught in the memory, and decided to change the subject, so as not to let the atmosphere between the two of them become so heavy, so he joked with some irony: "You pursue perfection like this, but the concept of choosing a mate is very casual. As soon as I put down the fishing line, you took the bait yourself, and you asked me if I could be your boyfriend on the first day we met, which almost scared me away, and forced me to pretend to be reserved for more than a month."

After splashing Lu Xun's champagne, Di Ye's own suit was also ruined. He was quite nervous at the time, and originally wanted to sprinkle champagne on Lu Xun's sleeves, but he didn't expect that his body movements would be uncoordinated during the nervousness, and the movement of touching porcelain would be a mess. It was more exaggerated, the wine on the tray splashed towards Lu Xun, and a champagne glass fell on Lu Xun's lap.

He didn't expect it to be so tragic, he was already dumbfounded, and his mind was full of: It's over, it's over, it's over, it's over...

This incident made the whole banquet slightly silent for a second, he stared at Lu Xun blankly, and Lu Xun sat there motionless and looked at him.

At that time, Lu Xun's eyes changed gradually, at first they were shocked and unbelievable, then they showed a fierce look, and then they were full of food.

Di Ye panicked, and was about to run away immediately after apologizing, but Lu Xun's expression became gentle all of a sudden, although his voice was cold but his tone was very gentle: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect to trip you up, your The suit is also dirty, if you don't mind, let's go to the locker room to deal with it."

Di Ye was dumbfounded, and followed Lu Xun to the locker room very nervously. After a while, the female assistant knocked on the door and brought two suits and shirts. Lu Xun took them and said, "Change them first, the banquet is over. Then I will ask the assistant to take you to choose a suitable suit."

Di Ye, who came to fish, took the suit in a daze, feeling very at a loss for the direction that completely exceeded his psychological expectations.

He was in a state of confusion, only to hear Lu Xun say again in a very cold and distant voice: "I'm sorry, I will compensate you for your suit, can I take the liberty to ask for your mobile phone number?"

Di Ye reported a series of numbers in a daze, then watched Lu Xun take out his mobile phone and dialed his number in a daze, and then asked coldly again: "Is your WeChat also like this?"

Di Ye answered blankly: "Yes... yes..."

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Lu Xun scrolling his phone to the WeChat interface. Since the phone was locked in the closet, he didn't know if Lu Xun was adding his WeChat. When he was thinking blankly, Lu Xun's voice came again. Come over: "Remember to add my WeChat."

Di Ye continued to sit there blankly, watching Lu Xun walk into behind the curtain with his suit in his hands, and then watched Lu Xun strode to him after changing his suit, and said goodbye to him: "Goodbye."

"goodbye..."

Di Ye continued to sit blankly on the stool with his clothes in his hands. He was in a daze for a while before he finished changing into his suit and walked out of the dressing room. He was stopped by the person in charge of the banquet just as he walked out of the dressing room, and he was dragged to the stage to show a high-end jewellery. Bespoke men's diamond watch.

He walked up to the stage with a watch and displayed the jewelry on his wrist. Lu Xun was standing directly in front of him holding a wine glass and looking at him with dark eyes.

That look made Di Ye terrified, and Di Ye didn't dare to make too much contact with Lu Xun's gaze, so he kept avoiding Lu Xun's gaze.

After showing the diamond watch, he stepped off the stage. After a while, a man in a suit came to him with a black velvet box and said with a smile, "Hi, this is a gift from Mr. Lu Xun."

Di Ye opened the box suspiciously, and the watch he showed on the stage just now was lying on the black velvet, shining brightly.

Di Ye was frightened and refused to accept the gift. After the banquet, he ran to the dressing room to get his clothes. After turning on his mobile phone, he immediately saw a friend application on WeChat.

He added a friend with trembling fingers, and just after adding, a message was sent: "Hi, I'm Lu Xun, my car has been parked outside the door, it's a black Rolls Royce, the license plate number is .. ...., your things are left with me, please come and pick them up"

......

Di Ye staggered into Lu Xun's car, and then Lu Xun took him to the mall for half an hour to buy two suits for him, calling it "compensation".

He returned home in a daze, and just opened his eyes in a daze early the next morning, picked up his phone and saw two WeChat messages from Lu Xun.

Article [-]: Are you awake?

The second interval is one hour: it seems that there is no

At that time, he was shaking with excitement, and he couldn't even hold the phone steadily.

Di Ye recovered from the memory, and continued to tease Lu Xun who was looking at the photo album beside him: "You are already a mature fat fish, and you have learned to take the bait yourself!"

Lu Xun raised the corner of his mouth, looked at Di Ye with love, and asked softly, "Do you remember my WeChat name at that time?"

Di Ye: "Of course, the crowd has searched for him thousands of times."

Lu Xun looked at him and said in a low voice, "The man is in the dark."
