Chapter 109
The two sat side by side on the small sofa near the window.
Although the sofa is small, it won't feel crowded when two grown men sit on it.
The scenery here is the best. When you look up, you can see the night scene outside through the floor-to-ceiling windows.It's a little late now, and most people still turn off the lights, and it doesn't seem to be as brightly lit as it was at eight or nine o'clock in the evening.
Qi Qingxi was covered with a thin blanket. Although it was already summer, it was still a bit cold at night.
"Do you regret it?"
The first to speak was Lu Nanshi.
His eyes showed Qi Qingxi's good-looking side face, as if he could only let him go from the beginning to the end.
The question asked also had no theme, but Qi Qingxi could understand it.
"No." He said truthfully: "It's just that I can't wait to tell everyone about our contractual relationship, which will cause me a lot of trouble."
"So you mean, if you can hide it, you have to hide it, right?"
Qi Qingxi frowned slightly, because that's not what he thought in his heart.
Seeing this, Lu Nanshi became silent.
After an unknown amount of time, his voice sounded again in the dimly lit room, "I can understand your difficulties, but...it's hard to get out of my mouth, especially if you lie to conceal your relationship. If the Lu family finds out, they will be suspicious."
The Lu family listened to everything, but if there was a slight disturbance, they would not pretend that they didn't hear anything.If one day in the future, it really spreads to the ears of the Lu family because Lu Nanshi denied his relationship with Qi Qingxi to others...
In their eyes, Lu Nanshi, who was originally a burden, has become a scheming and ambitious 'usurper'.
Not to mention that Lu Tianci, who was not pleasing to him, would take the opportunity to find fault, even the Lu couple who had a sense of guilt and sympathy for Lu Nanshi would completely sever ties with him because of this, and the little warmth in their hearts would disappear.
Qi Qingxi knew the pros and cons of this matter, and also knew that Lu Nan could not take the risk.
So he is willing to compromise, but after the compromise?The conversation between him and Lu Nanshi tonight is meaningless.
"I'll think about it again." Qi Qingxi said in a low voice, "There will always be a way to get the best of both worlds."
Lu Nanshi nodded slowly, and said, "I've been thinking about the contract partner for a long time. I'm very grateful that you agreed to it. There is a time limit on the contract, which may make you feel trapped in a contract. But I assure you that this contract will never change your daily life, nor will it bind your emotions."
The implication is that if Qi Qingxi has someone he likes, he will support him unconditionally, and even change the terms of the contract because of it.
Hearing this, Qi Qingxi coughed lightly, blushing slightly: "Those things are still early, I have no idea."
"Don't feelings appear anytime?" Lu Nanshi smiled: "There is no chance to prepare, because falling in love with someone may happen in an instant."
He acted like he knew everything, which made Qi Qingxi feel amused, "Do you have someone you like? It's so easy and natural."
"Yes." Lu Nanshi's eyes flickered slightly, staring at Qi Qingxi without blinking.
The winner who embraced the beauty in the original world now has someone he likes?Qi Qingxi was a little surprised, but also more curious at the same time. He turned his head and looked at Lu Nanshi, but was burned by those scorching eyes.
After a while, surprise and curiosity were replaced by shock, the smile on his face disappeared, and he stared blankly at Lu Nanshi.
"Go to sleep." Lu Nanshi suddenly stood up and said, "I have to make breakfast for Yingli tomorrow, don't I?"
He seemed to be shyer than Qi Qingxi, and he was very stiff.Qi Qingxi looked at his back, and the suspicion in his eyes became more and more obvious.
——Lu Nanshi likes him.
This is not a guess nor a question, but a statement.
Qi Qingxi didn't know, and didn't understand, he didn't spend as long with Lu Nanshi as he did with Zhu Tian, why did he fall in love with him?When did you have feelings for yourself?Are his feelings real or fake?
Can't figure it out, don't understand, all the information is like a mess, constantly entangled in his mind.
Lu Nanshi said he liked him, either true or false.If true, how should he respond?If it is fake, what is his purpose?
After returning to the room and lying on the bed, Qi Qingxi found it even more difficult to fall asleep.
He thought of countless reasons, but each reason seemed so real, and after careful investigation, it turned out to be a dead end with no hope.
In the early morning of the next day, the sky was gray, and the morning light could not see through the thick clouds, as if it was going to rain.
Every year in the college entrance examination, it almost always rains.
Perhaps it was because there was no first ray of sunlight in the morning, Qi Qingxi's face was pale, and his eyes were slightly blue, looking like he was malnourished.
In fact, he just didn't sleep well.
Getting up early to make breakfast, Lu Nanshi also helped.The two of them tacitly did not bring up the conversation last night.
Qi Qingxi didn't want to mention it, but Lu Nanshi knew he didn't want to mention it, so he didn't mention it.
When Yingli came down to eat breakfast, what he saw was the subtle way the two of them got along.
His intuition told him that something had happened, but his test-preparing brain did not allow him to devote extra energy to thinking about other things.
After breakfast, Qi Qingxi sent Ying away from the examination room.
Lu Nanshi still had to go to work, so the three of them split into two ways outside the community.Qi Qingxi thought for a while, and said before he drove: "If you have no place to go at night, come here. But there is only a sofa here."
Lu Nanshi was taken aback for a moment, then smiled.
Watching Lu Nan pick up the car to leave, Qi Qingxi turned his head and met Yingli's gaze.
For this, he had nothing to explain, but said very coldly: "Don't ask anything, don't worry about anything, concentrate on it, and the exam will come soon."
Ying Li pursed his lips, struggled for a while, and sighed: "Brother Qingxi is really... like a father."
"...Brother Qingxi is fine, don't call him Dad."
Do you know what a metaphor is?
I made a little joke to ease the atmosphere, and sure enough, the mood of both of them became better.
On the way to the examination room, Ying Li briefly talked about his dinner with his mother last night.
"She said she was flying out last night and wanted to have a meal with me."
"I also said that she didn't intend to make us angry today. She was worried about some things, and she might not be humane when she said it."
"I don't quite understand, but she said so much, I'm still very happy."
Qi Qingxi listened quietly.
It is a good thing that the relationship between mother and child has improved.
But unconsciously, the car he saw this morning suddenly appeared in Qi Qingxi's mind.
——He and Lu Nanshi took a taxi back last night, so where did the car that Lu Nanshi drove away this morning come from? !
