Chapter 33 Chapter 33 Never use it on others.

Gu Chen: "Why don't you let me go?"

Lu Xun: "Do you want them to see you?"

"... It doesn't matter." With their current relationship, he would rather be exposed and receive attention.

Lu Xun paused and put Gu Chen back on the table.

Gu Chen didn't look at him the whole time, and lowered his head to flip through the test papers on the table.

Gao Yu came back from talking to Director Xiao and saw that most of the class was looking at Lu Xun and talking nonsense.

"Lu Xun." Gao Yu sat back at the podium, "Come to my office after class."

When the bell rang, Lu Xun picked up the doll on the table and stood up.

Gu Chen hurriedly said, "I'll look at the test paper here." Lu

Xun lowered his eyes and looked at him: "You've already looked at it for a whole class."

Gu Chen couldn't help but look away: "I just looked at it, and I haven't analyzed it in depth."

"You said you wouldn't hide from me."

Gu Chen felt a little guilty, hesitated for two seconds, and slowly turned his eyes back to meet Lu Xun's heavy eyes.

"The classroom is full of people." Lu Xun lowered his voice, "I'm worried."

He didn't say what he was worried about, but Gu Chen somehow understood.

He resisted the urge to look away again, and quickly said: "It's okay, there won't be people like Cui Jie in our class."

"Brother Lu!" Qi Xiang jumped over and saw Lu Xun holding the doll in his hand. He paused, "Brother Lu, aren't you afraid that your image will collapse if you hold this?"

Lu Xun glanced at him: "What image?"

"The image of a school bully." Qi Xiang lowered his voice seriously and signaled Lu Xun to pay attention to the surroundings, "Everyone is secretly watching you."

"I'm quite scared." Lu Xun said, and before Qi Xiang could speak, he said, "But he is very important to me."

Gu Chen: "..."

Lu Xun: "I can't let others touch him."

Qi Xiang was still a little confused until Lu Xun left.

"Che." Qi Xiang turned his head and asked Qin Che behind him, "Did you hear what Brother Lu said just now?"

Qin Che nodded.

"Do you feel..." Qi Xiang tried to dig out adjectives from his poor corpus, "Brother Lu is a little weird?" "

Not bad." Qin Che smiled, "Men who are secretly in love tend to be emotionally unstable."

Gao Yu's office is shared with some other class teachers. When Lu Xun entered, he happened to see the class 3 teacher scolding Yu Fan.

"What's wrong? Didn't you say you were studying? Why did you do worse than before?"

Yu Fan buried his head and didn't say anything, and didn't notice Lu Xun coming in.

Lu Xun looked at him for a while until he heard Gao Yu calling him.

"I just praised you for your progress last time, but within two weeks you went back to the old ways." Gao Yu was halfway through her speech when she noticed that Lu Xun was holding a baby in his arms. She thought for a moment and finally picked out the most important point to say, "Your scores are in the single digits in every subject... Lu Xun, your family background is different from that of most students. You may not have to worry about your livelihood in the future, but..."

"Teacher." Lu Xun interrupted her, "I don't need money from my family anymore."

Gao Yu was stunned for a moment, and seeing Lu Xun's serious face, she couldn't help but ask, "Then where do you get your tuition and living expenses?"

Lu Xun: "I earn from game live streaming."

Not only Gao Yu, but also Gu Chen was stunned for a moment, but soon he felt it was reasonable. He had heard Lu Xun and others on the microphone before, and many of the people on the other side were professional players, and even world champions. To be able to reach this level, he must have made a lot of money from live streaming.

Gao Yu was silent for a moment, and flipped through the test paper in her hand: "There are a few questions this time that are similar to the last midterm. I remember you got them all right last time, why did you get them wrong again this time?" 

Gu Chen paused. He had just been looking over Lu Xun's math test paper in class. The situation Gao Yu described also happened to Lu Xun's math test paper. There were even two questions that he had only reviewed with Lu Xun the day before the exam. 

Lu Xun: "I was confused last time." 

Gao Yu rubbed his temples: "I'll contact your father about your situation." 

"Thank you for your trouble." 

Gao Yu expected him to react like this. Other students were afraid that their parents would be called in if they did not do well in the exam, but Lu Xun seemed to not care at all. Sometimes he even seemed to be eager for it. 

"There are some things that the teacher is not clear about, so it's hard to say more." Gao Yu glanced at Lu Xun meaningfully, "But life is for yourself, do you understand?" 

After leaving Gao Yu's office, Lu Xun did not return to the classroom, but directly climbed over the wall and left the school. 

He had not skipped classes for a long time, and Gu Chen was a little uncomfortable for a while. 

Gu Chen: "Are you going home?" Lu Xun 

: "Internet cafe." 

Recently, Director Xiao has been catching people in Internet cafes, and Lu Xun deliberately did not choose one near the school. 

On the way, he did not say a word. 

Gu Chen recalled what happened in the office just now, and couldn't help asking: "Did you make mistakes on the test paper on purpose?" 

Lu Xun paused for a moment, and continued to walk forward: "Sorry. You taught me for so long." 

Gu Chen shook his head. Feeling that he still couldn't grasp Lu Xun's situation, he felt a little uncomfortable for some reason, as if there was a cat scratching his heart. 

"Why did you make mistakes on purpose?" 

Lu Xun stopped and looked down at Gu Chen. 

Gu Chen regretted it as soon as he finished speaking. He thought he was a person with a strong sense of boundaries and would not dig into other people's affairs, but for some reason, he couldn't help it just now. 

Lu Xun: "Can you turn into a human now?" 

Gu Chen used his consciousness to look at the progress bar on his head and nodded. 

"I can hug..." A long car horn suddenly sounded on the road next to him, and Gu Chen only saw Lu Xun's lips moving. The upper half of his face was buried in the light and shadow, making it difficult to see his expression. 

When the horn sounded, Gu Chen looked puzzled: "What did you just say?" 

The light changed, and the upper half of Lu Xun's face became clear again: "Nothing." 

His expression looked no different from usual. 

Gu Chen thought of the two words he had just heard, and a guess arose in his mind, but he didn't dare to say it. 

Lu Xun walked for a while in silence. Gu Chen saw the increasingly familiar streets ahead and wondered: "Aren't we going to the Internet cafe?" 

"I'll take you home first." 

Lu Xun put Gu Chen down and went out. He didn't come back until the evening. 

Gu Chen sat at the table in the living room, listening to the rumbling thunder outside. After a moment, he jumped off the table. 

"Are you going to find Lu Xun?" A voice came from behind. 

Gu Chen turned around and saw Lin Yi standing not far away, holding a paper in his hand. 

Gu Chen: "It's going to rain soon, and he didn't bring an umbrella." 

Lin Yi: "I have a question here, can you help me take a look?" 

Gu Chen hesitated. 

Lin Yi: "Just one, very quickly."
"Sorry." For some reason, Gu Chen felt a little confused and couldn't focus on the questions. "The rain is about to get heavier. Wait until I come back to read it."

The biology department just upgraded the invisibility cloak two days ago. It is not only invisible but also waterproof. Gu Chen put on the invisibility cloak, dragged a folding umbrella from the shelf in the living room and went out.

The Internet cafe is not far from the community. Gu Chen ran very fast. On the way, the folding umbrella was like a small tail, dragging behind the 20cm doll, making a snapping sound.

He ran all the way to the door of the Internet cafe. Just as he was about to go in, he bumped into a leg head-on.

A strong smell of cigarettes rushed into Gu Chen's nose. He raised his head and bumped into a pair of deep black eyes.

Gu Chen paused.

When Lu Xun saw him, his face showed a rare surprise: "Why are you here?"

Gu Chen glanced at the cigarette between his middle finger and index finger of his right hand: "Are you going home?"

"To Yu Fan's house." Lu Xun walked to the nearby trash can, put out the cigarette and threw it in, and walked back to the fan by the door of the Internet cafe.

The strong wind blew against Lu Xun until he felt that there was no smell on his body. Then he walked back to Gu Chen.

"Come and bring me an umbrella?" Lu Xun picked up Gu Chen and his little tail.

Gu Chen's heart followed Lu Xun's action: "Catching a cold will delay your studies."

After saying that, he felt the person holding him was silent. Gu Chen felt a little regretful, but he didn't know what he was regretting. When his mind was in a mess, Lu Xun's cell phone suddenly rang.

As soon as he picked up the phone, he heard Qin Che's anxious voice: "Are you here?"

Lu Xun heard that his tone was not normal, and walked out quickly with Gu Chen in his arms: "On the way, what's wrong?"

"Hurry up, Yu Fan is going to jump off the building!"

Five minutes later, the taxi stopped downstairs of Yu Fan's house. Yu Fan lived on the 15th floor. Lu Xun entered the building and didn't wait for the elevator. He rushed to his door three steps at a time.

The door was open, and Lu Xun rushed in without thinking.

"You're such a rebel! You threatened to die if I said a few words to you, if

you have the guts..." "Stop talking!" A woman's heartbreaking cry came from Yu Fan's bedroom, "Fan Fan, it was Mom and Dad's fault just now. We spoke too harshly. Come down first..."

"What's too harsh? Isn't it true that his love affair affects his studies?"

Lu Xun followed the sound and walked into the bedroom. He first saw Qin Che standing at the back. Then in front were Yu Fan's parents. Everyone was tense and stared at the balcony with a nervous look on their faces.

The balcony door was open, and Yu Fan stood on the edge of the guardrail with his back to them. The guardrail was only as high as Yu Fan's ankles. The strong wind on the high building blew his body to the point of collapse.

It was the first time Gu Chen saw such a scene, and he froze. Almost at the same time, a hand fell on his head and gently rubbed it twice.

Gu Chen looked up and saw Lu Xun's tense jawline.

"You're here." Qin Che noticed Lu Xun and hurried to his side.

"What's going on?"

"He didn't do well in the monthly exam." Qin Che whispered, "His parents think he doesn't study hard, so they forced him to break up with Su Ya."

Lu Xun frowned slightly, took two steps forward, and gently patted Yu Fan's father on the shoulder.

Yu Bo was concentrating on Yu Fan, and was suddenly patted from behind, which scared him. Turning around, he saw Lu Xun standing behind him.

Lu Xun: "Let me talk to him." "

?"

A trace of confusion appeared on Yu Bo's irritable face, and when he reacted, his body had already moved away.

The balcony was very large, and Lu Xun walked forward slowly. With every step forward, Yu Fan's precarious state rushed into Gu Chen's eyes more clearly.

Suddenly, he saw Yu Fan's feet move two steps closer to the outer edge of the railing.

"No!" Gu Chen blurted out and shouted, and almost at the same time, he was put on the ground.

A gust of wind passed by his ears, and Gu Chen looked up and saw Lu Xun rushing up and grabbing the corner of Yu Fan's clothes. At the same time, he also jumped to the edge. The place where he jumped was even deeper than Yu Fan.

Gu Chen's pupils shrank suddenly and his breathing almost stopped.

Yu Fan's eyes were red, and he looked at Lu Xun who suddenly appeared in surprise. After a long time, he trembled from his throat: "Brother Lu... It's dangerous."

Lu Xun seemed to have no idea how dangerous his actions were. He looked at Yu Fan and said calmly: "You are not dangerous like this?"

"I..." Yu Fan slowly lowered his head, his whole body was shaking, "I don't know what to do."

"I really am learning, but my efficiency is very low... I always want to look at my phone and I really don't know what to do... I don't want to break up with Yaya, but my parents..."

Gu Chen frowned slightly, and the pain in Yu Fan's voice was heartbreaking.

"It's okay."

Gu Chen heard Lu Xun say. His voice was very calm, and at this moment, it inexplicably had a soothing power.

"Give me five minutes."

After Lu Xun said that, he jumped back to the ground from the side railing and turned to look at Yu Fan.

Yu Fan hesitated and jumped down.

Seeing this, Yu Fan's parents' originally tense bodies relaxed.

"Fanfan..." Yu Fan's mother rushed over and hugged her son.

Gu Chen watched intently, thinking of the last time he heard her scolding Yu Fan loudly in the school corridor, but now she was a completely different person.

A sentence that he heard from somewhere floated in his mind: There is no mother in the world who can beat her child.

"You still know how to come down, your wings are hard..."

"Uncle." Lu Xun interrupted Yu Bo, "Do you have a projection screen in your bedroom?"

Yu Bo paused. He looked at Lu Xun. The young man's figure was not yet fully mature, but his temperament was deep and not suitable for his age. When he didn't smile, he even had an inexplicable sense of oppression. Although Yu Bo had never met Lu Zeyu in person, he had seen a lot of him in various media. Lu Xun's appearance made people easily think of his father.

"Yes." Yu Bo unconsciously restrained his emotions.

"I want to show you something." After he finished speaking, he turned to Yu Fan's mother and said, "Auntie, come too."

The couple looked at each other. Yu Fan's mother carefully let go of Yu Fan.

"Don't worry, Auntie." Qin Che walked up and put his arm around Yu Fan's shoulders, "I'll help you watch him."

"Okay...thank you for trouble."

Yu Bo and his wife walked out one after another. Lu Xun squatted down and said to the little one wearing an invisibility cloak at his feet: "Wait for me here."

Gu Chen hesitated.

Five minutes later, he walked out quietly.

Yu Fan's parents' bedroom was at the other end of the living room. Gu Chen walked to the door and heard voices from inside. He hesitated, jumped up, and gently pressed the doorknob.

The door slowly opened a crack, and Gu Chen jumped back to the ground and looked inside secretly.

The room was dark, with no lights on. There was a large screen in the middle of the wall playing a video. The picture showed a gloomy sky.

Yu Fan's parents were sitting in front of the screen. Lu Xun stood beside them, holding the remote control in his hand, and the screen light left a faint silhouette under his feet.

"The child took the photo when he was playing with the drone." Lu Xun's voice sounded a little deep in the dark. "By the way, you two don't have a heart disease, do you?"

The couple looked at each other and shook their heads, feeling very confused: "What exactly is..."

Before they finished speaking, a picture of a young man standing on the balcony railing suddenly popped up on the screen.

The couple, who had just experienced a similar scene, fell silent.

The drone was taken from a bird's-eye view. There were tall buildings under the young man's feet, and the city streets were crisscrossed like spider webs. The dense traffic flow merged into lines. It seemed that he was standing at the same height as Yu Fan just now, but he was standing further outside, with half of his body completely outside the platform.

The high-risk scene made Gu Chen's heart beat faster. He always felt that the scene of this city was a little familiar. Before he could think about it carefully, the picture suddenly turned and became a horizontal perspective shot.

Most of the young man's face suddenly appeared on the screen. Gu Chen's pupils suddenly shrank, and his face was full of surprise.

In the room, Yu Bo and his wife had the same expression, and they looked at Lu Xun in surprise.

Although their temperaments are quite different, judging from their eyebrows and eyes, the young man on the screen is actually very similar to Lu Xun.

The strong wind messed up the young man's long hair, and the silhouette of his face appeared and disappeared in his hair. After two seconds, the camera shook twice and quickly switched to a bird's-eye view: the young man looked down at his feet, there was no highlight in his black pupils, and his white shirt outlined his extremely thin figure, swaying in the wind...

The next second, he flipped over the railing.

"Ah!!!" Yu Fan's mother screamed and buried her head in Yu Bo's shoulder.

Gu Chen opened his eyes wide and pressed his hands tightly against the door frame.

He watched the young man's figure fall from a height and disappear between the tall buildings and the sea of ​​clouds. The picture was still for a moment, then it took a sharp turn and went down to the ground.

The sound of bustling conversations sounded on the screen, and slowly, a crowded picture appeared. They formed a circle. In the center of the circle, a white figure appeared again, but his clothes had been stained red by the blood.

The screen paused for a moment and then slowly began to zoom in.

A strong sense of foreboding surged in Gu Chen's heart.

Two seconds later, a bloody and unrecognizable young man suddenly appeared on the screen.

Gu Chen stared at the screen blankly, his body trembling, and he felt his heart beating against his throat. He was stunned for two seconds, and then looked at Lu Xun.

The pale and dazzling screen light shone on his calm and unmoved face, showing a kind of dead silence similar to the video screen.

The video ended and the screen automatically went black. Gu Chen watched Lu Xun put down the remote control, pull a low stool from the side, and sit opposite Yu Bo and his wife.

Yu Bo wiped his face, and Yu Fan's mother raised her head. The two of them looked pale, and they were still frightened.

Lu Xun: "Do you know who he is?"

Yu Bo was sweating profusely, and after a long time, he nodded with difficulty.

Anyone who is a little famous in the business circle will know Lu Yi.

At the age of 22, he graduated with a doctorate from a world-class prestigious university. After four years in Lu's family, he negotiated several orders worth over 100 million yuan and merged six peer companies, bringing the already arrogant Lu family to a new peak. He was the heir appointed by Lu Zeyu.

But just three years ago, Lu Yi suddenly jumped off the building.

This was originally a shocking event, but Lu Zeyu blocked all related news. Although everyone wanted to find out, they had no channels. There was very little relevant content on the Internet, not to mention videos like the one just now.

"He was forced to death by Lu Zeyu." Lu Xun seemed to have completely ignored the shocked expressions of Yu Bo and his wife, and said lightly, "He likes art, and Lu Zeyu forced him to do business. No matter what he does, Lu Zeyu can always find something he is not satisfied with."

The huge room was extremely quiet, and only Lu Xun's lifeless voice could be heard.

"When he was in the Haicheng branch, he met a girl and he liked her very much."

"But Lu Zeyu found out. He forced them to break up."

"In the end, the girl couldn't bear the pressure and jumped off the building."

"From that day on, my brother talked less and less, and he stopped going to the company..."

Gu Chen felt as if his legs were filled with lead. With a little light, he looked at Lu Xun, who was hunched over on a low stool. His legs were apart, his arms were on his thighs, and his hands were hanging casually.

"A few days later, he jumped from the 17th floor while my mother and I were not at home."

After saying this, he paused for a long time before saying, "Do you hope that Yu Fan will become like my brother one day?"

Outside the door, Gu Chen turned around and pressed his back against the wall.

The incandescent lights in the corridor made him dizzy. One second seemed as long as a year.

After an unknown amount of time, he heard footsteps next to him.

Yu Bo and his wife walked out of the room with heavy steps.

Gu Chen seemed to suddenly remember something and immediately turned his head to look into the room.

The door was open, the hallway was brightly lit, but it was pitch black inside. Lu Xun was still hunched over on the low stool, motionless, like a statue.

He had never watched the video since his mother died. Time can wash away everything, but for those wounds that once penetrated deep into the bones, even if they have scabbed over, when they are touched again, the nerves related to them will inevitably throb and ache.

His first book was given to him by Lu Yi. It was Lu Yi who took him abroad for the first time. Lu Yi taught him programming, Jeet Kune Do, and how to perceive the world. Compared to Lu Zeyu, Lu Yi is more like his father. 

The space in front of him seemed to suddenly come to life and become distorted. Scenes appeared in front of Lu Xun as if they were real. The increasingly silent elder brother, the silhouette before falling from the building, the heartbroken mother, the roaring Lu Zeyu... His temples 

were throbbing with pain, and Lu Xun watched his hands tremble in the dark. He tried to raise his right hand and tried to hold down his left hand. 

At this moment, a white, slender, and somewhat transparent hand suddenly gently covered the back of his right hand. 

Lu Xun was stunned for a moment, then raised his head. He met a pair of light gray pupils that looked like crystals. 

The owner of the eyes stared at him intently. His expression was gentle and calm. 

Lu Xun stared blankly for a long time, and when he came to his senses, he found that he was no longer shaking. 

He lowered his eyes slightly, staring at the hand covering the back of his hand for a long time, and slowly said: "When I was a child, my brother was always my goal." 

"I told him that one day, I would definitely surpass him." 

"At that time, he always smiled, but didn't respond to me." 

"Later, I finally understood why..." Lu Xun paused, listened carefully, and his voice trembled a little, "If possible, I hope I have never said those words to him." 

Endless silence spread in the room. 

After Lu Xun finished speaking, he pondered for a long time. Just as he was about to get up, his peripheral vision suddenly passed by a white. 

His whole body was wrapped in a flowing warmth, as if his body had suddenly immersed in a pool of hot springs. 

Gu Chen squatted in front of Lu Xun and hugged him from bottom to top. Because of the height difference, his chin rested on his shoulder, which was a bit strenuous. 

Lu Xun was stunned in place, and his heartbeat, which had been a little inactive, accelerated rapidly.
His Adam's apple moved slightly, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Is this a response to my confession?"

Gu Chen was stunned for a moment, and said quickly: "No." Lu

Xun curled his lips lightly: "What is that?"

"Yes..." Gu Chen hesitated, "I don't know how to comfort you."

He didn't know what kind of person Lu Yi was, and he had no idea about his past with Lu Xun. He could feel Lu Xun's feelings for his brother, but that alone was not enough to support him to say anything powerful and comforting.

"Are all academic masters good at getting full marks accidentally?"

"?"

"Promise me one thing."

Lu Xun slowly raised his hands and hugged the shoulders of the person in front of him. His hands slid down his body, all the way to his waist, and held tightly.

"This way of comfort." He buried his head in Gu Chen's shoulder and whispered, "Never use it on others."
