old enemy riding a bamboo horse

Red eyes looking at this lonely city faintly

Like the joy squeezed out of a wry smile

"Henglin's plane the day after tomorrow has already been arranged for you." Before leaving, his father brought Xie Qing to attend the last dinner. Xie Qing is now the vice president, but he still personally arranged for Lu Henglin in New York Everything, bought an apartment for him, bought a new sports car, even the housekeeping company has carefully inspected and signed the contract.

Lu Henglin could barely manage not to embarrass Xia Chengqi by showing his resentment towards Xie Qing, but he was not happy about her thoughtfulness, he just nodded.

Lu Chengnian was very displeased with his indifference and unreasonableness, but because he just got a satisfactory result, he didn't criticize him much.

"Cheng Qi, have you decided which school to choose?" Lu Chengnian held back his emotions and changed the subject.

Xia Chengqi was taken aback for a moment, held the chopsticks for a while, and didn't answer quickly.

Lu Henglin smiled secretly. Before that, he had been eagerly making an appointment with Xia Chengqi to meet at Columbia University next year. This is why he must enter a good enough university, because he didn't want Xiaoqi to wrong him because of him.

"I talked to Cheng Qi. His ideal school is Stanford, and his ideal major is civil engineering. The major is ranked fifth in the world. It's a bit difficult, but I don't think it's a big problem for him. I suggest that he should minor in some finance. Relevant courses, because I can assist Heng Lin in the future." Xie Qing answered the question for Xia Chengqi.

Lu Henglin's mood, which had been heavy because of parting, sank even lower now.

He once mentioned that he wanted Xiao Qi to go to the same university as him, but it turned out that Xiao Qi hadn't answered him clearly because he had an agreement with Xie Qing long ago?

"Then Cheng Qi and you will be alumni from now on." Lu Chengnian nodded with satisfaction, looked at Xie Qing and smiled.

"I didn't think too much about it. When he talked about his ideal school, I thought he had a good vision and was destined to be with me." Xie Qing smiled decently and gently, and looked at Xia Chengqi full of approval.

Lu Henglin only felt that the dinner was stuck in his throat.

Although he doesn't resent the fact that Xiao Qi is Xie Qing's adopted son, he still hates the shackles of this relationship, which means that Xiao Qi is always under Xie Qing's influence, and Xie Qing will take him away from him at any time .

He never knew that he would have such a strong and almost distorted desire for monopoly, he only hoped that Xiao Qi belonged to him, had no relationship with anyone, and would not leave him because of anyone.

After the dinner, both of them were silent on the way home.

After entering the door, Lu Henglin felt that he should bow his head first to express his goodwill, because parting is imminent, and arguing about things that haven't happened is a waste of the only time we have together, and Xiaoqi has suffered a lot of grievances because of his immaturity, he can no longer wantonly Enjoy his gentle retreat.

"I'm flying to New York the day after tomorrow, don't you come to give me more hugs?" Lu Henglin stretched out his hand towards Xia Chengqi, with an innocent expression on his mouth.

Xia Chengqi threw himself into his arms and hugged him tightly.

Before hugging him, Lu Henglin wanted to talk rationally, but after hugging him tightly, the feeling of wanting to embed him in his body and no one can take it away began to surge up again.

"Think again, I really don't want to be far away from you." He couldn't help murmuring.

"it is good."

They hugged quietly for a while, Xia Chengqi asked, "Do you want to coax you?"

"Huh? It's not enough to always use one trick. I can't be coaxed now." Lu Henglin put his chin on his shoulder and smiled, rubbing his face against his soft hair.

"I always feel that there are eighteen forbidden hints in your words."

"Be pure, I said I am a traditional person."

"Pure and traditional, you made a list of more than [-] prohibited items?"

"If you think about it more, life won't be so difficult, okay?" Lu Henglin couldn't help laughing, "Do you want to coax me?"

"Yes, how about kissing and hugging him high?" Xia Chengqi smiled and put his arms around his waist and really picked him up.

"Hey, you don't save me face so much." Lu Henglin was stunned.

The day of separation was more uncomfortable than expected.

Being inseparable and becoming alone, in a completely unfamiliar environment, surrounded by the pressure of outstanding talents, and wanting to become stronger and better can protect him side by side with Xiao Qi.

Each one became a burden on his shoulders.

There is also the time difference video, and Xiaoqi’s work, rest and study should not be disturbed too much, so he can only suppress his intensifying thoughts and devote more time to his study.

Before that, Lu Henglin never thought that one day he would become such a hardworking person.

Xie Qing did his job well. The apartment he bought was not far from the school. It was a small house but a single house. The surrounding security was good and the environment was considered quiet. Only the most basic living needs were prepared inside, and the rest was given to him to arrange for himself.

On the rest day, Lu Henglin drove to choose slowly by himself. He still hoped that Xiaoqi would accept his request and come to Columbia University with him, so when he furnished the apartment, he prepared it according to the couple model.

He replaced the dining table with a small one. In fact, he used to hate the huge dining table at home, which made the family always have a cold distance.He hoped that when he was eating, he could touch Xiao Qi's by stretching out his legs, and when he wanted to feed him something, he could just lean over it.

Exactly the same mug so that they can mix and drink from each other's mugs intimately.There are also pairs of crystal glasses, wine glasses, and coffee cups. Maybe when they are not so busy, they can have afternoon tea together, and on weekend nights, they can have a drink together.

These pairs of cups always remind people of a lifetime.

Good-looking dinner plates, good-looking chopsticks, and good-looking tablecloths, he is willing to learn how to cook, and occasionally surprises him.

There is also a beautiful vase on the dining table, where you can put the roses he gave Xiaoqi on Valentine's Day.

The cliché between lovers, even if it's old-fashioned, he still wants to give it to Xiao Qi.

The desk is very big, and it won’t be crowded if two people use it together. When he sits there alone reading a book until his head is dizzy, he can’t help but think, if one day Xiao Qi sits across from him, he can kiss at this time Him, and then all fatigue will dissipate.

He was still blushing a little when he bought the double bathtub.

When the classmates around him are dating, falling in love, and enjoying the good time of youth, he spends most of his free time preparing the love nest, hoping that his beloved will live here with him one day.

When he received Xie Qing's call, Xia Chengqi remembered that the day after tomorrow was his birthday, and the other party said apologetically that he was going to accompany Lu Chengnian to Japan to attend an exchange meeting, so he couldn't celebrate his birthday.

Of course Xia Chengqi didn't care about it. He never had the concept of birthdays since he was a child, and his life was always precarious, so he didn't have the mood to think about it. Over time, he didn't care about it anymore.

I used to want to sit with Lu Henglin and eat a bowl of noodles together on this not-so-special day, but I didn't expect that before my birthday, there would be a few years of cold war.

Henglin went abroad to study before his birthday after falling in love.

Probably he was destined not to celebrate this kind of day.

When he returned to the Lu residence alone, he didn't even bother to turn on the lights.After Lu Henglin left, he studied directly in the school study room instead, and came back very late, and took a sandwich made by Aunt Sun for dinner.

He didn't want to face this home without Lu Henglin, because there were traces of him in every corner, and the feeling of missing him was too tormenting.

But he can't talk to Lu Henglin all the time, because this kind of feeling of wanting to possess the other party's everything is not a good relationship. It is correct to give the other party space, give the other party freedom, and become a better self when we are separated. s Choice.

Xia Chengqi took a deep breath.

So tired, like this.

He hasn't told Henglin yet that he has decided to choose Stanford, for his own original intention, and also to prevent himself from falling deeper and deeper in his desire to monopolize him.

He cannot become a vine that binds the other party just because of love, nor can he become dependent on love for a living because he wants to have it too much.

His birthday was a weekend, and there was no point in spending it. The day before, he studied until late at night, allowing himself to completely let himself go and not think about anything, and then fell into a deep sleep.

Maybe after waking up, Henglin will sing birthday song to him through the screen, that would be good too.

After entering the winter, the dawn was very late, and the room was still dark at five o'clock in the morning. Xia Chengqi woke up inexplicably, and found that there was someone in his bedroom by the faint light of the night light.

Not quite sober, his first thought was that there was a thief, so he stretched out his hand and grabbed the opponent's neck, turned over and pressed him to his side.

"Cough cough cough..."

He reacted when the familiar voice sounded, but it was a pity that the last second was a bit ruthless, so Lu Henglin was speechless.

"Heng Lin, are you okay?" Xia Chengqi turned on the bedside lamp and checked his neck in a panic.

"Cough, cough, kiss my wife." Lu Henglin's face was full of tiredness. Although he took off his coat, the sweater still carried a trace of the morning chill and the breath of running around after an all-night flight.

Xia Chengqi didn't move, he put his fingers on his cold neck and rubbed it carefully.

Everything seems so unreal at this moment, and the dream before waking up in the morning is the easiest to break.

Lu Henglin couldn't wait for him to take the initiative, so he could only press his back down to his arms, and then kissed him eagerly.

When I really touched this person, he was more exciting than I imagined.
