Li Tang’s performance was really big. The three people involved knew about it. Only Rong Huan was in the dark. He looked at his little nephew and then at Lu Yi. He was a little at a loss: “Do you two very familiar?”
If it was only knowing each other, then Li Tang reaction wouldn´t be so big.
His ex-boyfriend became his friend´s nephew, Lu Yi´s seniority became higher suddenly. It sounded ridiculous, but when he recalled the details of the two people getting along, there were actually many clues about Li Tang´s identity.
It was really… Lu Yi’s expression was very subtle, but compared to Li Tang’s expression, his condition was obviously much better. After all, he was the elder now.
Lu Yi broke the silence: “It can be said that it is relatively familiar, we don´t need an introduction”
Li Tang didn’t know how Lu Yi became a friend of his uncle, but in front of his beloved uncle, he still didn’t dare to make troubles, and endured: “That’s it, the movie is about to begin, let’s watch the movie.”
This film tells the life of a certain music master, regardless of the subject matter and the type of film, it was very niche. If it weren’t for the music-loving Rong Huan, Li Tang would never have chosen such a film.
Originally, Rong Huan wanted to bring his own friends. He didn’t have any opinion, and even had a little secret joy, because it meant that his uncle opened up his circle of friends to himself
But after discovering that his ex-boyfriend was a friend brought by his uncle, the surprise was gone. He could not help but speculate with the greatest malice about Lu Yi’s sinister intentions. He watched the movie with a black face, and his attention was not on the screen, but in his uncle.
The positions of the four people, from left to right, were Wen Shu, Li Tang, Rong Huan, and finally Lu Yi.
Faced with such a situation, Wen Shu kept his habit of being well-behaved and didn’t say anything, just looking at his boyfriend.
He was from the art academy. Although he learned to dance, he knew a lot about the music master. He didn’t pay much attention to the movie. When the atmosphere was embarrassing, he could only look at the big screen and watch. Then, he realized that it was really a good film, and became very focused.
If he paid attention to his boyfriend, he would find that he had been looking to his right, which was Rong Huan side.
But even if he found out, he would think that Li Tang was looking at Lu Yi. After all, this situation was really too embarrassing. He was a little better. Li Tang should be the one who couldn’t accept the truth.
Wen Shu didn’t care too much, and Rong Huan couldn’t figure out the situation. His original plan was to quietly put his hand on Lu Yi’s hand, as stated by netizens who had known him for a few years. But while watching the movie, his little nephew kept staring at him.
The look in his eyes was like magma, hot and enthusiastic, and he couldn’t ignore it.
Of course, it was not the kind of affectionate gaze. It was a bit like during the college entrance examination. The strict college entrance examination teacher spotted the student looking around, and then stood there and stared at it fiercely.
Rong Huan wanted to make small moves, but his courage flinched under this terrible gaze.
He was very dissatisfied with his nephew. It was a movie that he was looking forward to, but he almost didn’t watch it at all, so he sent a message to Li Tang.
Rong Huan: Li Tang, what’s the matter with you today, your boyfriend is sitting next to you, can’t you watch him? I really can’t watch the movie. It’s too rude to keep staring at me.
After sending this one, he sent another message to Lu Yi, saying a little bit more mildly: Lu Yi, did you two have any holidays before?
Lu Yi was originally watching the movie. The phone was habitually adjusted to vibrate. He felt his pocket shook. He took it out and looked at it. It was a message from Rong Huan.
After thinking about it, instead of letting Li Tang speak nonsense to Rong Huan, he might as well act first: he is the one I mentioned to you before, the scumbag I did stupid thing for. I didn’t expect that he would be your nephew, which is really embarrassing. When the movie is over, I will go back first.
Rong Huan also received a text message from Li Tang.
Li Tang: Uncle, this man must have deliberately approached you for revenge. He is too disgusting. You must never be friends with him, otherwise you will only be fooled by this insidious villain.
Li Tang’s hands were shaking when he typed these two lines.
Rong Huan looked at Lu Yi and then at his little nephew Li Tang. He couldn’t hold his cellphone firmly with his hands and fell to the ground.
Rong Huan bent down to pick up his mobile phone. Two hands stretched out from his left and right, and bumped into each other. In the end, it was him who picked the phone up.
At the end of the two-hour movie, only Wen Shu among the four had watched the movie seriously.
When the lights turned on, the four people stood up, Wen Shu took the things he brought and the food waste he made, and then naturally took his boyfriend’s hand: “Li Tang, let’s go back to school.”
Li Tang subconsciously opened Wen Shu’s hand. It may be that his movements were a bit rude. He hit the back of Wen Shu’s hand with a loud slap.
For an instant, all eyes were focused on him, Wen Shu looked at his boyfriend in disbelief, his expression was very hurt. Originally, Li Tang said that he had brought him over to see his uncle, whom he liked very much, and he thought he had succeeded.
After all, he had liked Li Tang for many years. His family background may be worse than that of the Li family, but he could be regarded as a good match. As a result, the other party didn’t give himself face much, it was simply too much.
The little nephew had such a virtue to hid boyfriend, and when Lu Yi was Li Tang’s boyfriend, maybe it was the same.
Rong Huan’s heart was messed up, but seeing this scene, such a sentence came to his mind inexplicably, and he couldn’t help feeling a little pity for the scumbed Lu Yi.
Li Tang, a little nephew who had known each other for many years, and Lu Yi who had known each other for a few months, between these two people, the balance of trust in his heart was still quietly biased towards Lu Yi.
People’s hearts were so partial. Who they like was not fair and reasonable.
Lu Yi broke the awkward silence: “I´ll go first. I will have an exam in a few days.”
Li Tang didn’t wait to say: “We don’t have any exams; you are a little proficient in lying.”
There were no important exams at all in the school, and the civil service exams for postgraduate exams were not available in recent days. He just wanted to expose the lies of this shameless guy.
As a result, Rong Huan’s face turned black as soon as his voice fell. Lu Yi’s admission ticket was processed by the piano store and printed out and distributed to the candidates. Lu Yi’s admissions were given by him personally. Of course, he knew that the exam time will be in these few days.
As a result, Li Tang didn’t know the situation at all, so he sprayed it directly, he didn’t seem to be the little nephew in his memory at all.
As an elder, he scolded and said: “No matter what your relationship was before, today Lu Yi is the friend I brought, Li Tang, you are really rude.”
Rong Huan had always been a very gentle person in Li Tang’s memory. As a result, he actually scolded himself so much for an outsider. He felt that he was particularly uncomfortable. “I´m your your nephew, he is just an outsider!”
He could imagine how Lu Yi said bad things about himself in front of Rong Huan, and how he slandered him. Also, Lu Yi hated him so much, how could he remain indifferent.
Listening to Li Tang’s words, Rong Huan really felt that this little nephew was too naive. To be honest, Li Tang was the grandson of his stepmother, but he had no blood relationship with him. One surname was Li and the other was Rong. There was no blood relationship. The love was from watching each other grow up.
The other party was quite cute when he was young, and he had always been well-behaved in front of him.
At first, the homosexual circle was chaotic, it was not because there were no people with rules, but they were deceived by people like Li Tang. If one had a better mentality, they would lick their wounds silently. If one had a bad mentality, he would take revenge on other people.
Li Tang’s self-willed and ignorant performance made Rong Huan’s heart more and more biased.
There seemed to be a smell of gunpowder in the air, and Wen Shu, who was originally angry with Li Tang’s attitude, was inexplicably persuaded. He tugged on his boyfriend’s sleeve, a little timidly: “Don’t make a noise, okay.”
Li Tang yelled at him: “Who wants to take care of you?!”
After finishing talking, he wiped his tear, pushed Wen Shu away, and ran out, making it look like the bitter heroine in a movie.
Wen Shu glanced at Rong Huan and Lu Yi, then shouted “Li Tang, wait for me” and went out.
Lu Yi sighed, and then said, “If you don’t mind, let’s find a place to have a good talk?”
Rong Huan took a deep look at him, and then said, “Okay, I also think we should have a conversation.”
It’s one thing for the little nephew to be ignorant, and it’s another thing for Lu Yi to deceive him.
In other words, Lu Yi deceiving him hurt more than what Li Tang did, because he had no other expectations for his nephew, but he did have a different mind for Lu Yi.
After leaving the cinema, the two found a cafe and asked for a small box.
After sitting down, Rong Huan asked bluntly: “Let’s talk about it. If you have anything to tell me, you will explain it clearly today.”
Lu Yi pondered for a moment, and then said, “In fact, when I approached you at the beginning, my purpose was not simple.”
Hearing these words, Rong Huan stood up abruptly and was about to leave, but his hand was quickly grasped by Lu Yi.
“Wait a minute, listen to me”
“What do you have to say? you lied to me.” Feelings were all scams designed by the other party. He felt like a fool, stupid and naive.
“I just concealed that I was there for you, but other things, I never concealed you, didn’t I?” Lu Yi held his hand tightly.
He considered what to say and made sure that what he said would not have any ambiguity: “Before I saw you, I knew your name, but I didn’t know how you were related to Li Tang. I hadn’t seen your face, I had heard about you from my roommate, because he said he saw Li Tang walking very close to you.”
He went on to say: “I told you before. He is my first love. I did a lot of stupid things for him. Then I drank pesticides. After I woke up, the Lu Yi who liked Li Tang before died. But I don’t hate him either. The relationship with you and this friendship has absolutely nothing to do with Li Tang.”
He took out his mobile phone and put it on the table: “Look at it for yourself. A few months ago, the chat history between my roommate and me. We didn’t know each other at that time. I just left the hospital. You can check it out for yourself.”
Rong Huan’s heart was shaken: “Then you let go.”
Lu Yi said, “I’m afraid that if I let it go, you will run away without listening to my explanation.”
Rong Huan’s face blushed. In fact, he really thought this way: “I am not the kid Li Tang, nor the hero and heroine of a dog-blood drama. You let go, or how do I look at it, I´m not left-handed”
Lu Yi just let go.
Rong Huan looked at Lu Yi’s chat log openly. Lu Yi showed him this, and it happened suddenly. He didn’t believe that Lu Yi had the time to do anything to the chats.
After reading it, he silently put the phone down and said nothing.
Lu Yi asked him: “Are you still angry now? I’m sorry, I shouldn’t hide this from you, but I really don’t know that Li Tang was your nephew.”
He paused, then said: “I thought Li Tang likes you…”
“How can Li Tang like me? He is my nephew.” Even they were not related by blood, being with Li Tang would be incestuous for him. The dog-blood plot in the novel would look sensational, but it really happened in reality. It happened to him, and he absolutely couldn’t accept it.
Moreover, he was 27 now. It was okay for Lu Yi to be 20 years old, but when he was 20, Li Tang was only 13 years old. In high school, when he knew he liked men, Li Tang was only 11 years old. He was not a pervert that would like children.
“But Li Tang really likes you, don’t you know?” Lu Yi could understand Li Tang, there was a person he liked very much in his heart, but because of the uncle identity, the other party had been unable to pursue it.
There were several kinds of prodigal sons, one was born to be like this, the other was injured and scumbags others. Li Tang was the latter, because there was a person in his heart, so he would look at everyone.
Just like a psychologist analyzes the motive of committing a crime, he could understand this emotion, but he could not forgive it.
Why do you hurt someone if you can’t get someone?
The original owner was originally a love-sensitive person. He looked at someone’s outstretched hand and shook it without hesitation. As a result, he didn’t know that it was actually just a straw, and then left him alone and sinking deeper and deeper into the quagmire.
What’s wrong with honest people, ordinary honest people deserve to be hurt?
Lu Yi especially hated such irresponsible people who play with other people’s feelings, not just for the original owner who had the same name and surname as him.
Lu Yi’s words were so firm that Rong Huan unconsciously recalled his past. In fact, in the past few years, he also had a good impression of some men. After all, he also wanted to fall in love, but then somehow it was disturbed.
And there were two people, which were actually quite good, but Li Tang exploded to him in time, saying what the other party was just playing, and gave him evidence.
The other party did this with kindness, but after a closer look, it always felt a bit wrong. And it was forgotten when he was young, children stick to the adults they like, and when they grow up, Li Tang was also sensible.
Even the date of coming out, Li Tang chose the same day when he came out. The only difference was that when he came out, there was no one he liked, but Li Tang already had one, and of course he was finally taken apart by his family.
It’s just that Li Tang’s performance had always been that “I actually had a boyfriend, and you are my uncle, so I am very close to you”. He didn’t think too much about it. Sometimes he felt too close. Let the other person pay more attention to the other person’s attitude, he seemed to be thinking too much.
But if the other party really had that kind of thought, he was being taken advantage of by Li Tang.
At the thought of this, Rong Huan’s face turned blue and white, and he wanted to vomit.
Seeing that his face was really bad, Lu Yi walked around and asked with concern: “Are you okey? your face is so ugly.”
“It’s okay, I just have a stomachache.”
“Then don’t drink coffee, go to check out, I’ll accompany you to buy some stomach medicine.” Lu Yi held his hand and frowned, “Why are your hands so cold?”
This was the first time Lu Yi was holding his own hand. He just grabbed his arm. The temperature of the palm of the opponent’s hand was very high. A steady stream of heat was transmitted from the young man’s body, which made him feel a lot more comfortable.
“It’s okay, I just thought of Li Tang, a bit disgusting.”
Li Tang was really spoiled by his step-brother and sister-in-law. He wanted to give him anything since he was a child, and he actually hit him with his idea.
“Then don´t think about it” Lu Yi let go.
But this time he let go and was unsuccessful, and was caught by Rong Huan.
“?” Lu Yi looked Rong Huan with a puzzled expression.
Thinking about what the little friend said to him before, Rong Huan mustered his courage and said, “What about you, do you have anything else to say?”
Lu Yi looked at the other party grabbing his hand and was stunned for a while, without saying a word.
Rong Huan finally warmed up and his heart was cold again. He planned to let go of his hand and determined not to meet Lu Yi in the future. As a result, he just let go of his hand and was caught by Lu Yi again.
Lu Yi looked at him: “I used to do things well during this period of time, but every time you get a message, I can’t study hard. Watching the video of the master playing the piano, watching and watching, I think about you. I’m really sorry to say such ambiguous things to you, but I still didn’t express my intentions clearly.”
His dark pupils clearly reflected the gentle and beautiful face of Rong Huan: “I think I also like you very much. I am a person who will not give promises easily. Once I say it for a lifetime, it is really a lifetime. Now I haven’t been able to say anything to you forever, but after being together, I should like you more and more day by day. Do you like me?”
This was the first time that Lu Yi had said so many and so long words. After realizing what the other party had said, Rong Huan’s face suddenly blushed. Li Tang, the little nephew, didn’t know what he had on his head to actually dump Lu Yi.
He felt the smoke coming from the top of his head, bowed his head, stared at the fingers that were clasped for a long time, and then said in a mosquito-like voice: “Then, let’s try it first.”
Anyway, it won’t hurt to try it.
After establishing a new relationship, the two went out hand in hand.
Lu Yi didn’t actually hold other people’s hands much, but it felt natural for him to hold Rong Huan’s hand. Perhaps letting him travel through was not only to allow him to resurrect Yu Ke and make a new choice, but also to allow him to find someone he really liked.
Thinking of this, his eyes suddenly dimmed.
Although Rong Huan was immersed in joy, he was keenly aware of Lu Yi’s emotional changes, and he asked Lu Yi: “Why are you suddenly upset?”
Lu Yi looked at him: “I’m just a little scared, thinking how sad I would be without you in the future.”
He didn’t know how many fragments he had to collect, he would be very lonely if there was no one he likeed in other worlds.
Rong Huan said, “Although I am seven years older than you, I am only seven years older. Maybe you are still ahead of me.”
The age difference was his pain point. Although Lu Yi said that he liked him, he was very upset.
“Yes, yes, I must be ahead of you.”
“Bah, bah, crow’s mouth.” Rong Huan didn’t like listening to Lu Yi saying it either.
Lu Yi looked at him and smiled.
Rong Huan looked dazed by him, and touched his face: “Is there anything dirty on my face?”
Lu Yi shook his head.
Rong Huan said, “Then why are you looking at me? I…”
Before he finished speaking, he was blocked with lips.
Lu Yi bowed his head and kissed his new boyfriend: “Now I like you more than before.”
After realizing what had just happened, Rong Huan was confused, and he walked lighly.
He covered his lips and smirked: Starting today, he was also a person with a boyfriend.
