Do not lie to me

Shang Xuechen walked into the elevator and pushed down the floor, his head still hadn't recovered.When the elevator arrived and the door opened with a "ding", Shang Xuechen came back to look at the dark corridor outside.

He got out of the elevator and stomped his foot vigorously before the voice-activated lights in the corridor turned on.Shang Xuechen looked up at the lamp above his head, stomped his feet again, and the lamp stayed on like that.He lowered his head, still feeling strange, why couldn't he open up in his heart?He was confused by Shao Ji, by Shao Ji's fierce embrace, by his nasal voice and the mole under his eyes.

The only thing Shang Xuechen is sure of is that he only loves Ji Shuping.The chaos is that he doesn't know how Shao Ji messed with his heart, so he feels strange.

You can treat me as a child, a small animal.

how can that be possible?Shang Xuechen recalled what Shao Ji said at the time. He was so big, and his size was almost catching up with him. How could he treat him as a child, let alone an animal? Cuter than him.

Treat me like a younger brother, like a family member, come and hug me?

"Brother? Relatives?" The lights in the corridor went out again. Shang Xuechen looked up at the top of his head and didn't stomp his feet again. He walked along the wall in the dark to the door, took out the key and inserted it into the lock.It was just too dark, and it took him half a day to find the key in the keyhole.Or it wasn't because it was too dark, but his mind wasn't on it, he poked around with the key, and couldn't get it right, he just muttered in his heart, brother?loved ones?

When Shang Xuechen came back to his senses, he saw himself poking the doorknob indiscriminately, and laughed, and the lights in the corridor lit up when he heard his laughter, and he successfully inserted the key into the lock With a twist of the eye, the door opened.

Pulling out the key, he entered the house, closed the door casually, and Shang Xuechen walked towards the living room, and within two steps, he heard the sound of the door being stuck behind him.Shang Xuechen took the vase on the cabinet in the entrance vigilantly, thinking that someone was trying to break into the house and rob it.The moment he turned around, he also raised the vase, but when he looked back, it was Ji Shuping's foot stuck in the door that was about to be closed.

Shang Xuechen heaved a sigh of relief, and was about to put the vase back on the porch cabinet, "It's you, you scared me. I thought someone was planning to break into the house and rob me." Speaking of this, Shang Xuechen smiled, "But You've done this before. Why did you come early today? Isn't it usually late?" Then he turned to look at the sky outside the balcony of the living room, as if to confirm what time it was outside.

Ji Shuping grabbed the door and pushed it open. The door slammed into the wall with a loud noise. Shang Xuechen was so startled that he didn't put the vase down firmly. It fell to the ground and broke into pieces.Shang Xuechen looked at the fragments on the ground, then looked back at Ji Shuping who was standing at the gate, and asked him, "What's wrong?"

Shang Xuechen didn't react yet, he just thought it was the wind blowing, Ji Shuping's hand was just not holding the door, after all, Ji Shuping seldom acted recklessly like this on weekdays.It wasn't until he saw that the doorknob made a dent in the wall that he realized that Ji Shuping was venting his anger.

Shang Xuechen didn't understand, so he glanced at the dent on the wall and frowned at Ji Shuping, "It's all right, what's wrong with you?"

"What's wrong with me?" Ji Shuping came in, closed the door hard and there was another "bang", Shang Xuechen shivered his shoulders in shock.Ji Shuping pressed forward step by step, Shang Xuechen backed away again and again, he watched Ji Shuping approaching, and heard Ji Shuping's leather shoes stepping hard on the fragments of the vase on the ground, there was a creaking sound, Shang Xuechen swallowed Swallowing, he felt that the sound of Ji Shuping stepping on the debris did not come from the ground, but from his heart.He saw that something was wrong with Ji Shuping's expression, and his frowning brows were full of coercion.

"What do you think is wrong with me? Huh?" Ji Shuping forced Shang Xuechen to step back step by step.

Shang Xuechen trembled when he heard his own voice, "If you don't tell me, how would I know what's wrong with you?"

He is not pretending not to understand, he really does not understand.Ji Shuping's eyebrows tightened again, and Shang Xuechen looked at it and then became concerned, "Shuping, let's talk about it, okay?" As he said that, he stepped forward and reached out to touch Ji Shuping's brow, wanting to give it to him. He smoothed his frown.

Ji Shuping raised his hand to catch Shang Xuechen's wrist, and squeezed it tightly.Shang Xuechen gave him a painful look, still with an unclear expression.Ji Shuping squeezed his wrist, pushed him, pushed him directly onto the sofa, and strangled his two hands on top of his head.

Shang Xuechen struggled twice but didn't break free, and lost his patience, he raised his leg and pressed his knee against the lower abdomen of the person on his body, but Ji Shuping didn't loosen at all.Shang Xuechen was a little anxious, "Why are you crazy?"

"Why am I crazy? You lied to me at noon that you had dinner with Brother Zhou. Why didn't you say that Shao Ji was there? I was worried that you rushed over and saw you and Shao Ji at the entrance of the corridor as soon as you parked the car." Hold tight! What are you like this? What am I to you? What is our relationship in your eyes? Am I in your eyes that you are no different from the previous ones? "

It turned out to be like this, so he saw that scene.Shang Xuechen twisted his wrist anxiously, but he couldn't do anything, "It's not like that, Ji Shuping, listen to me, it's not what you think."

"Okay!" Ji Shuping roared loudly, "You explain, I'll give you a chance to explain!"

Shang Xuechen was stunned, he really couldn't explain, he couldn't explain why Shao Ji became a bit unique to him, was it because of the mole that happened to grow in the same position?Shang Xuechen couldn't tell, could it be because the mole under Shao Ji's eyes was in the exact same place as the fucking one?This is so absurd that I don't even believe it when I say it.Also, Shang Xuechen couldn't explain why, when he was hugged by Shao Ji, he actually felt a sense of sympathy for each other.

Shang Xuechen felt guilty, and Ji Shuping saw it, because he avoided his eyes.With one hand, Ji Shuping held Shang Xuechen's two hands above his head, and with the other hand he went to take out Shang Xuechen's pocket.Shang Xuechen tried his best to move his body to escape from Ji Shuping's restraint, "You said you wouldn't force me!"

Ji Shuping took out the wallet from his pocket, found the ring hidden inside, threw away the wallet casually, and was about to put the ring on Shang Xuechen's ring finger.

"No, no, no!" Shang Xuechen clenched his fists, "No! Ji Shuping, I'm not ready, I'm scared, I'm scared!"

"What are you afraid of! It's just a ring to prove that you only belong to me. Didn't I wear it earlier? Because I'm sure I love you, and if you love me, you should wear it too."

Shang Xuechen didn't open his fist because of Ji Shuping's words, but shouted eagerly, "I love you, I really love you. But I'm not ready, I'm afraid!"

Ji Shuping couldn't break his fist, and said anxiously, "It's just a ring, it's just on your finger, not on your neck!"

"No! I don't want the dust to settle now! My illness is still not cured, I don't want to go crazy like my uncle! I don't want to be like him! I don't want it!" Shang Xuechen yelled and broke away With Ji Shuping's hand, he raised his leg and kicked the person on him to the ground.

Ji Shuping sat on the ground lonely, his mind was full of the words Shang Xuechen screamed.

"Did you never think about getting settled with me?"

"Yes." Shang Xuechen affirmed, he had no intention of lying, "Because..."

Ji Shuping didn't want to listen any more, got up and went out, and gravity slammed the door shut.

Shang Xuechen sat up from the sofa, covered his face, and the unfinished words leaked through his fingers, "Because I'm afraid. I'm afraid that I will turn around and hurt you when I promised, like uncle Like daddy."

There was no sound in the living room, Shang Xuechen raised his head from his hand to look at the closed door, "Shu Ping?"

No one answered.Shang Xuechen looked at the door blankly, as if he had just realized something, he hurriedly got up, "Shu Ping?"

Still no one answered, just a sound or two from the debris on the ground brought by the wind.As if waking up from a dream, Shang Xuechen chased after him, "Shu Ping, it's not what you think, it's not what you think!"

Shouting, Shang Xuechen ran across the living room, stepped on the debris, and eagerly opened the door to catch up with Ji Shuping.But when the door was opened, there was nothing in the dark corridor.Shang Xuechen hurriedly ran towards the elevator, and the sound of a series of footsteps made the voice-activated lights turn on with good and bad responses.

He ran to the elevator door, and the elevator had already gone down. Shang Xuechen anxiously pressed the button twice, but kept his eyes on the descending floor displayed on it, and then punched the wall angrily. With a sound of "ding", Shang Xuechen turned his head to see that another elevator next to him opened the door.Shang Xuechen hurried to that elevator, wanting to take the elevator down quickly so that he could chase Ji Shuping back.

But as soon as he got to the elevator door, he froze.When the people inside came out, Shang Xuechen took two steps back before remembering to call out, "Brother."

Xu Xueshi looked at Shang Xuechen sullenly, and slowly walked out of the elevator and looked up and down at the embarrassed Shang Xuechen. Before he could speak, Shang Xuechen lowered his head.In this way, Xu Xueshi couldn't blame him, and the corridor became quiet again, and the quiet voice-activated lights went out.

Ji Shuping came out of that room in a moment of anger, his eyes were red with anger, and all the way down his mind was only the "no" and "don't" in Shang Xuechen's words.

When he sat in the car, he looked at the building eagerly, wanting to see if Shang Xuechen had chased him out, but there was nothing.

"Why didn't you chase him out?" Ji Shuping turned his head and started the car, and pulled the reverse gear hard to get out of the car and drive away.As soon as he backed out of the car, Ji Shuping felt a little regretful, regretting that he had forced Shang Xuechen so much just now.He looked back, but there was still no one coming out of the building. Ji Shuping smashed the steering wheel twice angrily, then turned off the car, got out of the car and ran back quickly.

Ji Shuping ran back into the building in a hurry, and the two elevators had just gone up.He anxiously pressed the up button twice, turned around and went straight up the stairs.

Step up three steps, and finally arrived after a while.Ji Shuping bent over to support the safety door to let himself breathe, and at the same time, he was also thinking about how to calm down and listen to Shang Xuechen explain to himself.

"Didn't I tell you to keep a low profile!"

There was a voice coming from the corridor, even though it was separated by a security door, but the person spoke in a hurry and unconsciously raised the volume, Ji Shuping frowned when he heard it, it seemed familiar but he just thought it was some couple arguing outside There was a fight.As soon as he adjusted his breath, he was about to push open the safety door in front of him.

"I'm keeping a low profile."

Just as Ji Shuping pushed the door open a crack, he heard Shang Xuechen's aggrieved voice.Ji Shuping stopped pushing the door, who was questioning him?

"Are you low-key? Why did you keep a low profile and let me see you eating in Mrs. Shao's restaurant today? How could you walk with Shao Ji when you were low-key? What I told you, you didn't take it to heart at all. Do you know I know that Shao Ji..." Xu Xueshi's eager speech stopped at a critical point.

Shang Xuechen just hung his head and didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his words, he only knew that Xu Xueshi could only reprimand him anyway.

Ji Shuping, who was hiding behind the security door, noticed something was wrong in Xu Xueshi's abrupt end, so what happened to Shao Ji?Make Xu Xueshi so nervous?

'

Shang Xuechen still stood silently with his head bowed in front of Xu Xueshi. He had long since lost the confidence to be justified in front of Xu Xueshi, when he decided to stay by Ji Shuping's side.Xu Xueshi looked at Shang Xuechen who was drooping his head and said nothing, and sighed helplessly. It was very light, but there was an echo in the extraordinarily quiet corridor, and he even heard the voice-activated lights turn on.

Ji Shuping glanced at the voice-activated light that was lit outside, and turned his body so that he was completely blocked by the door.

Neither of the two people standing opposite each other in the corridor said anything until the voice-activated lights went dark again.Xu Xueshi looked up at the voice-activated light above his head, "This light is not very sensitive."

"Well. I'm not the owner, so I didn't find someone to fix it. There are no residents in the surrounding houses."

"So what's the reason why you insist on staying? What's the reason why you insist on staying with Ji Shuping? He let you live in this kind of place?"

Hearing this, Ji Shuping clenched his fists, and Shang Xuechen outside the door was anxiously defending him, "What does it matter to him if I live here? I found this house myself, and I want to live here. Didn't you want to live here?" Am I low-key? He gave me several houses, but I didn't take them, I just wanted to keep a low profile. "

"Humph." Xu Xueshi snorted, "Don't excuse him. I haven't settled your debt with you yet. Tell me why you are with Shao Ji today? I don't think it looks like you just met when you were together. It wasn't Ji Shuping who asked you to get close to him on purpose! I want you to play Shao Ji's mouth!"

"I told you not to involve him in everything! He doesn't know that I went to have dinner with Shao Ji today. It's my own intention to be close to Shao Ji."

"What do you mean? Seriously?"

"Yeah." Shang Xuechen nodded, "Shao Ji has seen the relationship between me and Ji Shuping, and he is also somewhat dependent on me. I went to dinner with him today because I want him to keep the matter between me and Ji Shuping a secret, no Allow him to threaten Ji Shuping with this matter, maybe I can find out the lifeblood of the Shao family from him."

Ji Shuping behind the door understood Shang Xuechen's intentions when he heard this, and when he thought of how he had persecuted him just now, his regrets poured out continuously.

"You're crazy!" Xu Xueshi yelled at Shang Xuechen, "Ji Shuping, Ji Shuping, it's him who opens and closes his mouth. Do you remember what you promised me? You promised me not to let Ji Shuping return to the Ji family, Don't let Ji Shuping get involved in the Shao family, but have you done it? You didn't do anything, but now you help him to find out the bottom of the Shao family! I think you are crazy! No, no, you are not crazy ? You are clearly following your father's old path!"

"You are not allowed to say that about my father!" Shang Xuechen roared angrily, and was about to rush forward and grab Xu Xueshi by the collar.

"No?" Xu Xueshi glanced at him unhurriedly, "Where do you have the qualifications to not allow it?!"

Shang Xuechen was stunned, and the aura of flaring his teeth and claws died down. He lowered his head and lowered his hands in front of Xu Xueshi, "Yes, I'm not qualified."

"Of course you are not qualified. You are the same as your father. Your father betrayed my father for the sake of his so-called lover. Now you also ignore my words because of Ji Shuping! The two requests I made with you, which one Ji Shuping has fulfilled now? !"

"Ji Shuping doesn't know. He has his own ideas. I don't want to talk to him about these things to influence him! Isn't your concern about Shao Shi just shifting your target from Ji Shi to Shao Brothers? As long as I start with Shao Ji, I know something You can start to investigate the fur of the Shao family. Even if you can’t get on the old man of the Shao family, Shao Ji is the next generation in power, and you can also get on the boat of Shao Ji. If I do this, I will kill two birds with one stone. For you, for you I."

"Do you think I'm asking you for my own interests? You don't understand anything at all! I'm just asking for your consideration!"

"For me?" Shang Xuechen couldn't digest Xu Xueshi's words for a while, "Why did you ask Ji Shuping not to intervene in the Shao family's affairs because of my consideration?"

Xu Xueshi was impatient and said quickly, but hurriedly covered it up, "If you want to be with Ji Shuping for a long time, do you want to jump around in front of the enemy all day long and wait for someone to catch you? Of course, the more secretive you are, the better. Ji Shuping has the Ji family as his backing, no matter how much the Shao family looks down on the Ji family, he is still a grandson of the Shao family. When your affairs become known to everyone, will it be you or Ji Shuping who will suffer?"

Shang Xuechen looked at the words that came out of Xu Xueshi's mouth, and lowered his eyelashes, "You're right, I didn't think carefully."

Ji Shuping outside the door listened, and lowered his hand, what Xu Xueshi said was right, maybe this was the reason why Shang Xuechen didn't want to wear the ring.

"You must ask Ji Shuping to withdraw from the Shao family's affairs, and you must also promise me that you will never see the Shao family again. Can you do it?"

"You make me think about it."

"If you can't figure it out, then I'll send you abroad to think about it slowly and for a long time."

Shang Xuechen looked up at the person opposite in surprise.Ji Shuping, who was hiding behind the safety door, was a little anxious when he heard it, and reached out to grab the door latch, and was about to open the door and come out to argue with Xu Xueshi.But he still stopped because he heard Shang Xuechen's weary voice, "Go, go away, don't bother me, let me be alone. No one bother me."

Ji Shuping stood outside the door with his hands down. Hearing Shang Xuechen's exhausted tone just now, he guessed that he must be extremely tired.Xu Xueshi had already left, and he heard Xu Xueshi's footsteps turning and entering the elevator and the sound of the elevator door closing.Shang Xuechen hasn't left yet, because he didn't hear the sound of footsteps going in.He could hear Shang Xuechen's footsteps, one foot was deep and the other was shallow, a little like the footsteps staggered after drinking.

Ji Shuping just stood quietly behind the door. He didn't dare to open the door and go out to face Shang Xuechen. He wronged him and forced him. He thought that maybe Shang Xuechen didn't want to see him. He wanted to stay alone and take a good rest. If he went out and stood in front of him, he might remember how he persecuted him on that sofa just now.

After a long time, Ji Shuping heard Shang Xuechen's footsteps, one foot deep and one shallow, his footsteps filled the corridor, and then the door opened and closed.Behind the security, Ji Shuping listened carefully to his every step, and regarded it as compensation for what he owed, a psychological comfort for self-deception.
