Chapter 38 Lover
Chapter 38 Lover
In the spacious conference room, everyone sat upright, not daring to breathe.Although the boss is usually unsmiling, he has never been so stressed.The manager who was reporting to work looked at his boss's face, and unconsciously lowered his volume.
The manager secretly looked up at Lou Xuan who was sitting on the main seat, but saw that he didn't seem to be paying attention to his report. Although he seemed to be concentrating, why did he seem to be distracted?
At this moment, Lou Xuan was indeed absent-minded, looking down at his mobile phone from time to time.He didn't reply to the text messages he sent to Xiaoshu all day, and he didn't get through the phone. If it wasn't for the news from Xiang Junjie, he probably wouldn't be able to sit here any longer.However, even if he sat here, he was restless all day long.
After finally ending the meeting, Lou Xuan strode back to his office.
Seeing his boss eagerly taking out his mobile phone to make a call on the road, Fang Zheyan couldn't help but want to help his forehead.Whoops, was his calm and steady boss caught by the big bad wolf?Where did this brat walking in front of him come from?
"Xiao Shu." After ringing for a while, the phone was connected, and Lou Xuan was truly relieved when he heard Xiao Shu's voice.
Then look at the way the boss changed his tone as soon as he answered the phone. Although his face was still expressionless, his tone gave people a feeling of spring breeze.Hey, it's really not easy for him as a single dog who is hurt by his boss every day.
Watching the boss close the office door while calling in a low voice, Fang Zheyan silently pushed his glasses. Although he really wanted to watch the boss fall in love, he had the heart but not the guts.
Because Sui Shu is not in China, Lou Xuan has returned to his previous workaholic state. Fang Zheyan, who has to work overtime with his boss every day, will be moved to tears every time he sees his boss walking out of the office and preparing to go home.
Lou Xuan, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, rubbed his eyebrows.The night is fading, and the lights are just coming on. The night in this time and space is always as lively as the day.
Lou Xuan stared at the neon lights outside the car window in a trance. In his heart, the most beautiful night scene was still the quiet and peaceful night back then, with the occasional chirping of insects, the smell of wine brought by the breeze, and the people sitting beside him drinking. people.Thinking of Sui Shu, Lou Xuan's heart seemed to be filled.
When did you start to have different thoughts about that amazing person?Even though decades have passed, Lou Xuan still clearly remembers that when he was careless, he was besieged by Ming Chengjun on Luoying Mountain, and the [-] troops lost nearly half.And young master Shu seemed to descend from the sky, with a jade flute and a white dress, he seemed to be a fairy figure who came out from the deep mountains, even he who was used to seeing beauties in the palace was dazzled by him.
After fighting for ten years, son Shu accompanied Lou Xuan for ten years.In the end, Lou Xuan won the world, but lost him.In her previous life, Lou Xuan devoted herself to the country.In this life, the only thing Lou Xuan wanted was to be alone.Even if he can only be by his side in the name of brother in the end, this life is not in vain.
The car drove into the villa where he lived for more than ten years. He didn't feel it before, but now Lou Xuan gradually felt that the house was too unpopular.A place without comfort is like an empty cage rather than a home.
As soon as he got out of the car, a maid in a hurry walked up to him.After hurriedly saying hello, the maid ran away in a hurry.Lou Xuan frowned, what happened to the servants in this house?
Walking into the room, Lou Xuan realized that everyone seems to be abnormal today.
"Sir, you are off work." The oncoming housekeeper smiled like a chrysanthemum. "Dinner is ready, are you going to eat first?" Mr. Sui specifically told Lou Xuan to eat first.
"En." Taking off her coat and handing it to the housekeeper, Lou Xuan walked towards the dining room.Without Xiaoshu to accompany the meal, the meal tastes nothing at all!
Looking at the dishes on the table, even though Xiao Shu doesn't live here, Lou Xuan still confesses that the kitchen prepares Sui Shu's favorite dishes every day. Whenever he sees these dishes, Lou Xuan can always think of Sui Shu's meal Satisfied expression, crooked eyes, like a contented cat.
After eating, Lou Xuan put down the bowl in his hand and turned to look at the housekeeper.The expression was obviously asking what happened.The people in the villa are weird today.This feeling is especially strong when seeing the housekeeper.
"Sir, are you done eating? Do you want to take a walk in the yard?" Directly ignoring Lou Xuan's eyes, the butler asked loyally with an expression that I was thinking about your health.This is related to the lifelong happiness of the husband, so don't be careless.
"No." Lou Xuan refused concisely.
"Sir..." Hearing Lou Xuan's refusal, the housekeeper wanted to continue persuading Lou Xuan, so he almost told him that it was about his lifelong happiness.But before he could open his mouth, a group of furry things ran in.
"..." The housekeeper looked at Xiaojin excitedly circling Louxuan speechlessly. Apart from sticking out his tongue, he also tried to get on Louxuan's body. Not only did he put all his heart into Suishu, but even Suishu's pets were Be patient.It seems that choosing the master is also a technical job.
After a while, Xiaopang, who usually doesn't even bother to move, also walked in slowly, and rarely meowed at Lou Xuan.
The butler looked at the two little guys with a dark face, Mr. Sui didn't trust him, did he even send his pet on the stage?
"Sir, there seems to be something on Xiaopang's body." The housekeeper, who was trying to show his own value, finally succeeded in finding it.A bib was wrapped around Xiaopang's neck, and there was a pocket on the bib, with a corner of paper slightly protruding from the pocket.
Lou Xuan bent down, pulled out the paper from Xiaopang's bib, and patted Xiaopang's head with his free hand.Because it is Sui Shu's pet, Lou Xuan also loves the house and the crow.
"It's rare to see a clear scene, so I invite you to tell me about it."
Lou Xuan was already very familiar with this handwriting.Back then, every kit that Young Master Shu presented to Lou Xuan was carefully treasured by Lou Xuan.During the 20 years without Young Master Shu, Lou Xuan had flipped through these notes over and over again in her bedroom.It was not until the last moment of Emperor Yuanwu's life that he ordered these papers to be burned.
Holding the paper slightly harder, Lou Xuan stared at the paper, as if trying to make a hole in it.
"Sir, you..." The butler originally wanted to persuade Lou Xuan to go out with Xiao Jin who had already walked out of the dining room, but before he finished speaking, Lou Xuan walked out with long legs.The butler patted himself on the head, he was so stupid, really.How could he have forgotten that when Mr. Sui encounters Mr. Sui, he will be completely different from usual.
Not knowing what the housekeeper was thinking at all, Lou Xuan could only see the note and the idea of Xiao Shu's return.
Although Xiao Shu has only been away for a week, Lou Xuan's heart has been hanging in the air during this week.Although he has always refused to think about the consequences of his fear, Lou Xuan secretly regretted why he was so impulsive in the dead of night.He clearly knew that Sui Shu had only brotherly affection for him, so why did he force him.
But when he knew that Xiao Shu had come back, he was not avoiding him, and was even waiting for him, Lou Xuan wished he could fly, and immediately flew to Sui Shu's side.
So what the servants of the villa saw was such a scene. When the calm and steady boss walked towards the garden, it was as if the wind was blowing under his feet. He didn't give any attention to other people on the road. his people.The maids who walked past smiled at each other, expressing their understanding.The boss finally waited for his own spring, it was really not easy.
Gradually approaching the garden, Lou Xuan's impatient footsteps gradually slowed down.
Maybe it's the timidity of being close to the hometown, the closer you get, the more palpitations you get.This trip is like a person going to court to wait for the referee.Although he once told himself that he would be willing to be his brother by Sui Shu's side for the rest of his life, but when he really had to face the result, Lou Xuan felt that he was afraid.
Standing behind a ginkgo tree, Lou Xuan greedily looked at Sui Shu who was sitting in the gazebo with his back turned to him.He found someone to build this gazebo according to Sui Shu's preferences in his previous life. Whenever the sky is sunny and the moon is bright, Xiao Shu likes to sit in the gazebo, or taste wine, or play the flute.
"Aren't you coming?" Hearing the slight voice behind him, Sui Shu knew that Lou Xuan had arrived.Sensing the hesitation and hesitation of the people behind him, Sui Shu's inner tension calmed down a little.
While sitting here waiting for Lou Xuan, Sui Shu's mind kept flashing various scenes of the two of them getting along.In his previous life, the folk customs were simple and simple, and whenever he passed by those intersecting paths, there would always be some young intersecting women who would throw wild flowers on the roadside at him.And every time this time, he could always feel the dislike of the person around him.Originally, he thought that he didn't like these women not acting like the women in the palace.Thinking about it now, I'm afraid that at that time, he was just sulking foolishly.
Sui Shu found that ever since he made up his mind, every time he recalled the past, there was always a smile on his lips unconsciously.This fool does not know how many things have been done silently for him.So this time, he will take the initiative.
Although he has made up his mind, Sui Shu still has difficulty controlling his nervousness.The hand that was clenched into a fist was loosened and closed again, the palm of the hand was already seeping sweat, and the heart was beating as if it was going to jump out of the chest.He felt that no matter how stupid Lou Xuan's behavior was, he would never laugh at him again.Because he has already felt the feeling of helplessness now.
Lou Xuan, who was at a loss, calmed down when he heard Sui Shu's voice, and returned to his usual calm appearance.
Walking around the ginkgo tree, Lou Xuan walked towards Sui Shu, still holding the paper that Xiaopang brought him.
Sui Shu raised his head and looked at Lou Xuan standing in front of him, yes, he was really tall. "Aren't you sitting down?"
Hearing this, Lou Xuan obediently sat on the chair opposite Sui Shu.Watching Sui Shu pick up the jug to help him pour the wine, Lou Xuan's body gradually relaxed, as if he was back to the time when his friends were drinking together.But soon, Lou Xuan found out that something was wrong with Sui Shu.
After pouring the wine, Sui Shu didn't speak anymore, but picked up the glass in front of him and drank it down in one gulp.After that, he stared at Lou Xuan's face without moving, without blinking.
"Xiao Shu." Lou Xuan yelled, dumbfounded, a little alcoholic who can't hold alcohol well and gets drunk every time he drinks.
"You drink." Sui Shu, who was still a little sober, tried hard to persuade Lou Xuan to drink, he had better be drunk so that he could speak.
"Okay." Lou Xuan, who has always been obedient to Sui Shu's words, obediently picked up the wine glass and imitated Sui Shu to drink it all down.
Sui Shu nodded in satisfaction, and helped Lou Xuanman up again.Seeing Lou Xuan gulp down his drink without saying a word, Sui Shu cleared his throat.
"Lou Xuan." Sui Shu looked into Lou Xuan's eyes, under the light, Sui Shu clearly saw himself in Lou Xuan's eyes. "You close your eyes."
Although puzzled, Lou Xuan obediently closed his eyes.
There was a moment of silence, with the sound of the breeze blowing by my ears, and the sound of my own breathing.Perhaps because of the loss of vision, Lou Xuan's hearing is particularly sensitive. Lou Xuan can always feel the sound of Sui Shu's breathing lingering in his ears, making his mouth dry and his heart beating abnormally.
Lou Xuan, who was still immersed in his own perception, suddenly felt a soft touch from his lips.This feeling is exactly the same as the last time I mustered up the courage to kiss Xiao Shu.Lou Xuan, who was frightened by his guess, tensed up and went stiff instantly.
Before he could feel it, the softness had already left his lips.In desperation, Lou Xuan immediately opened his eyes, and what caught his eyes was Sui Shu who had not had time to stand up straight, his cheeks were slightly smoky from drinking.
Lou Xuan stretched out his hand to touch his lips, and said uncertainly, "Just now..." But as soon as the words came out of his mouth, Lou Xuan suddenly didn't know what to say.
Seeing Lou Xuan's stupid look, Sui Shu couldn't help laughing.The original nervousness also dissipated.Really, why is he nervous, there is obviously someone more nervous than him.
Lou Xuan looked stupidly at the large bouquet of fiery red roses that suddenly appeared in front of him. This bouquet of flowers looked exactly like the flowers he gave Sui Shu last time.
"Who did you tell the clerk last time you wanted to buy flowers for?" Sui Shu asked with a smile as he stuffed the flowers into Lou Xuan's hands.
"My love." Lou Xuan, who was taken aback by the bouquet of flowers, could only reply instinctively.Last time, when the clerk asked him who he wanted to buy flowers for, his first reaction was his lover.
"It's a coincidence, so am I."
Lou Xuan stared at Sui Shu with wide eyes, is this the meaning he understood?Looking at Sui Shu's affirmative eyes, Lou Xuan felt as if his heart was about to stop.
With hot eyes, Lou Xuan could only look at Sui Shu stupidly, as if he wanted to see forever.
