Chapter 43 Chapter 43 Come to accompany my boyfriend

"Take the subway to Sanli Station after you exit the station. Your brother will pick you up at the station entrance."

His mother's commanding words came from the microphone. He turned off his phone, pushed his suitcase and got on the subway to Sanli Station.

As for the younger brother his mother mentioned, he was only one year younger than him, had a bad temper, and never concealed his ill will towards him.

He didn't even know when he had offended him.

It was inexplicable.

After an unknown amount of time, the sound of the arrival of the station sounded on the subway broadcast.

"The train is about to arrive at Sanli Station. Passengers going to Sanli Station, please get ready..."

The door opened.

Liang Zhixia got off the train with the crowd. The closer he walked to the station entrance, the slower he walked. He didn't really want to see the "younger brother".

The sun shone on the floor of the exit. He stepped out, the coldness on his body was dispelled, and his cold fingertips slowly warmed up.

It was just an annoying voice that forced its way in.

"Brother!"

He looked up with his eyes narrowed in the sunshine. The so-called "brother" was standing on the steps of the exit, grinning and waving at him.

The boy was well-developed, just over 1.8 meters tall, wearing clothes that he thought were fashionable, and had earrings on his ears, a row of sparkling.

Seeing him looking over, he hurried over to help him push the suitcase.

Liang Zhixia's eyelids jumped, and he pushed the suitcase back, saying in a cold voice: "I'll push it myself."

Anyone passing by would think that they were a pair of loving brothers.

In fact, Liang Zhixia had no doubt that if his suitcase fell into the hands of the other party, an accident might happen halfway. It

's not like it hasn't happened before.

He tightened the handle of the suitcase and said in a deep voice: "Let's go."

Ji Chaohao rolled his eyes, pouted, and kicked the pebbles at his feet: "Boring."

He had already thought of the funny scene after deliberately damaging the other party's suitcase, but he was found out. If he had known, he would not have come to pick him up.

The phone in his pocket kept ringing. He took it out impatiently and just as he was about to curse, he saw the message on it.

He rolled his eyes and smiled, "Okay, you come pick me up."

When he spoke, his eyes fell on his cheap brother. The sun fell on the other's head and formed a halo. Ji Chaohao was stunned for a moment, but still walked over and said, "My friend is here to pick us up."

Liang Zhixia frowned. He had seen Ji Chaohao's friends from afar before, and he felt that they were not easy to get along with.

He hesitated and said, "I'll take a taxi myself."

Ji Chaohao pulled him away, his dog eyes drooped, and grinned, "That won't work. Mom asked me to pick you up. How can we not go back together?"

He looked down at his cheap brother, and a faint fragrance filled his nose, which seemed to come from him.

Generally, people who take long-distance buses will have some unpleasant smells, but the cheap brother smells so good.

He had an interested expression on his face and lowered his head to smell the smell.

Liang Zhixia didn't notice his expression, frowned and broke free from his hand: "Don't touch me."

The smile on Ji Chaohao's face disappeared instantly, and he stared at him with a gloomy look, and threw his arm back: "Who wants to touch you, you pervert who likes men."

The fingertips holding the suitcase handle trembled, Liang Zhixia lowered her eyes, her expression was inexplicable, but her face became colder and her lips pursed slightly.

Ji Chaohao smiled gloomily and whispered: "You don't want your mother to know about this."

At this time, a series of thumping sounds came from the side of the road.

"Brother Hao! We are not late!"

Several motorcycles parked on the side of the road, arranged like a □□, brothers coming and going.

If Liang Zhixia still can't see that Ji Chaohao wants to punish him, then he has grown a brain in vain.

The yellow-haired man in the lead got off the motorcycle, wearing a pair of flip-flops, ruffling his hair with his hands, and deliberately walked in front of Liang Zhixia and looked at him curiously.

"Brother Hao, this is your brother? He's pretty!"

The people behind him laughed.

"He looks like a girl, hahaha."

"Nowadays, girls just like this kind of pretty boy."

"Damn, are you jealous, hahaha."

The people coming out of the subway station walked around them with disgust, obviously not wanting to be stained by the smell.

Liang Zhixia glanced at the yellow-haired man's hair, which was like a dead grass root, much uglier than bamboo hair.

He gripped the lever tightly, turned around and said, "I'll take a taxi back by myself."

As soon as he finished speaking, he walked towards the intersection in front.

Ji Chaohao winked at the yellow-haired man, who immediately understood, ran over with a smile, and even tried to reach out to grab his clothes.

Liang Zhixia dodged to the side suddenly, with a cold expression: "I don't like others touching me."

Being humiliated in front of so many people, the yellow-haired man's face sank, and he reached out to grab Liang Zhixia.

Liang Zhixia pointed at the surveillance camera not far away and said coldly: "If you touch me again, I will say you are blackmailing and robbing. Do you want to stay in there for a few days?"

For a hooligans like Huangmao who are uneducated and unskilled, the most annoying thing is to be arrested and stay in there for a few days without any freedom.

He snorted and cursed: "You are a mysophobe."

"..."

There happened to be a taxi parked on the side of the road. He pushed the suitcase and walked over without even looking at Ji Chaohao.

But the driver looked back and said in a genuine dialect: "Is this your first time here, young man?"

Liang Zhixia lowered his head and wiped the sweat from his palms, and hummed softly.

Driver: "You have to be careful, these people like to do some petty thefts and bully people."

Liang Zhixia was caught off guard by the kindness from the stranger and hummed and said: "Thank you, uncle."

After arriving at the community, he got out of the car and said goodbye to the driver.

He has been to this community in front of him several times.

The first time was when his mother gave birth to his younger brother, and the second time was when he came to his mother to borrow money for his grandparents' medical treatment.

He thought he would never come here again, but he still came.

The guard sitting in the security booth asked him to register his name. He paused for a moment before writing his name.

If possible, he didn't want to come here at all and meet those who didn't like him and he didn't like either.

Although he was a directionally challenged person, he remembered how to get to the Ji family's house.

He took the elevator to the 12th floor, stood at the door of 1201, raised his hand and knocked on the door.

A familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from inside.

"Ji Chaohao, you didn't bring your keys again, did you? Ah, mom has told me many times, remember to bring your keys when you go out--"

The door clicked open, and the woman's voice stopped abruptly when she saw him.

"It's Zhixia, where's Xiaohao? Didn't he go to pick you up?"

The woman wiped her hands on her apron and looked behind him.

Liang Zhixia's eyebrows were cold: "He didn't come back with me."

Zhang Mi: "Come in first."

He looked down at the shoe covers thrown at his feet, bent down quietly and silently to put them on, and put the suitcase in the corner of the door.

Zhang Mi saw it, but didn't say anything.

The range hood in the kitchen was roaring. Liang Zhixia looked at the woman who didn't even look at him, went into the kitchen and closed the door.

He stood in the entrance and looked calmly at the interior decoration.

At first glance, there was a taste of home.

But it was not his home.

After an unknown amount of time, thunder sounded outside the house, and a flash of lightning lit up the sky.

He sat on the sofa and saw the kitchen door opened. Zhang Mi called Ji Chaohao anxiously.

"Xiaohao, are you back? It's raining outside, and you didn't bring an umbrella..."

The woman's voice was very gentle, completely different from the tone when she spoke to him.

He turned his head and looked out the window. The rain was not heavy. Ji Chaohao, a 17-year-old boy, would not get sick because of the rain, but Zhang Mi was very nervous about him, as if Ji Chaohao was a treasure that could not even get wet in the rain.

The coffee table in front of him was empty. Liang Zhixia lowered his eyes and twisted his fingertips slightly. He was in a very calm mood. He just wanted to take away the things that belonged to him and his grandparents.

He was no longer the little boy who could only cry.

It was 6:30 in the afternoon.

Ji Chaohao's father came back.

Zhang Mi's second husband was a researcher in a research and development company. He looked very honest, but Liang Zhixia knew that was just an appearance.

He was not familiar with Ji's father. Neither of them had the intention to communicate. They sat on the sofa and did their own things.

Ten minutes later, Ji Chaohao came back.

Zhang Mi stood at the door and opened the door for him as if she knew it in advance.

As soon as the door was opened, a bouquet of flowers appeared in front of Zhang Mi, with crystal clear raindrops on it.

"Mom, this is for you. Do you like it?"

"Yes, thank you, Xiaohao."

Liang Zhixia looked at the scene indifferently. Ji Chaohao noticed his gaze and gave him a provocative smile.

Childish.

When everyone was present, the meal naturally started.

Liang Zhixia picked and chose what she ate. The only voices at the table were Zhang Mi and Ji Chaohao.

After dinner, Zhang Mi took off her apron and said softly, "Your brother's birthday is in two days. I will give you the photo after his birthday."

Liang Zhixia curled her lips sarcastically.

Was she afraid that he would run away with the photo?

The rain outside gradually stopped. Liang Zhixia stood up and said, "I'll come again on your birthday."

He planned to find a hotel here to stay. It happened that the hotel he stayed in last time was very cheap.

Zhang Mi: "Yeah."

Ji Chaohao said with a smile: "Mom and Dad, I'll go see my brother off."

Zhang Mi complained in a low voice: "It's not like he doesn't know the way. It's still raining outside."

Ji Chaohao said coquettishly: "I want to ask my brother how to get into A University."

Liang Zhixia took off her shoe covers and threw them into the trash can. She stood in front of the elevator with her suitcase and didn't plan to wait for Ji Chaohao at all.

But one second before the elevator closed, Ji Chaohao stretched out his hand to block the elevator door and squeezed in.

"Brother, why don't you wait for me?"

Ji Chaohao's eyes were narrow and long, and when they squinted slightly, people felt very uncomfortable.

He was too lazy to pay attention to the other party. After the elevator reached the first floor, he pushed the suitcase out.

Ji Chaohao, who was following behind, looked at the boy's indifferent back with a gloomy face. He ignored him again and again. Ha, on his birthday, he would make his cheap brother look ridiculous.

He chased after him and said with a smile: "Brother, Mom seems to like me more."

Liang Zhixia didn't even frown, as if she didn't hear what he said at all.

Ji Chaohao curled his lips in boredom, his cheap brother's reaction was too boring.

Suddenly, a cell phone rang.

Ji Chaohao saw his cheap brother take out the phone from his pocket, answered it and put it to his ear.

The two happened to walk past the street lights in the community, and Ji Chaohao saw a smile on his cheap brother's face under the dim light.

It was a smile he had never seen before, a real happiness from the heart.

Liang Zhixia didn't know that Ji Chaohao was observing him.

It was Lu Quan's voice on the other end of the phone.

Lu Quan: "What is Zhizhi doing now? Why are you silent after returning home?"

Liang Zhixia chuckled unconsciously and said, "I'm... taking a walk after dinner."

At this time in City A, Lu Quan leaned on the balcony railing on the third floor, tilting his head to look at the stars in the night sky.

The environment in the suburbs is better than in the city center, and there are many stars in the sky. Lu Quan listened to Zhizhi's soft voice in the microphone and smiled, "Walking? Then why did I hear the sound of the suitcase wheels?"

He knew the location of Liang Zhixia's hometown. It took less than two hours to get there by car from City A. It was dark now, so it was impossible that he hadn't arrived yet.

Liang Zhixia was stunned. The road in this community was not very smooth, and there was indeed a very obvious sound when pushing a suitcase on it.

He didn't expect Lu Quan to hear it.

He was about to tell another lie, and heard Lu Quan slowly say, "Don't lie to me, Zhizhi, or I will find you later. You know, I know where you live?"

Liang Zhixia almost forgot about this. At that time, he thought it was a welfare activity of the merchant, so he gave the real address of his hometown.

He had to say, "My mother's place in City C."

Lu Quan thought of the words of the courier and Aunt Wang. Zhizhi's parents had long since abandoned him. Now they wanted him to go back, it must be because of something.

He couldn't say it directly. After all, in Zhizhi's cognition, Zhizhi didn't know that he knew these things.

Lu Quan: "Call me if you have anything, boyfriend."

"Oh." Liang Zhixia blushed at being called boyfriend, but luckily it was dark now and no one would see him.

He naturally forgot about Ji Chaohao behind him and chatted with Lu Quan.

But Ji Chaohao didn't think so, especially after he called Liang Zhixia's name, his adopted brother didn't even look at him.

He deliberately said loudly: "Brother, if mom doesn't keep you, where will you live later?"

Liang Zhixia didn't have time to cover the microphone, and this sentence was heard by Lu Quan on the other end of the phone.

Lu Quan said in a low voice: "Zhizhi, why is there a man's voice?"

Liang Zhixia was speechless by his choice of words. What did he mean by a man's voice? Didn't Lu Quan hear what Ji Chaohao said? He asked knowingly.

He pursed his lips and said, "It's my half brother."

"So it's a younger brother." Lu Quan's voice was full of laughter. "He said you have nowhere to go? Didn't your mother arrange a place for you to stay?"

Liang Zhixia clicked her fingers unconsciously and whispered, "No."

Lu Quan smiled and said, "That's a coincidence. I have an empty house in City C. Zhizhi can live there, okay?"

How could Liang Zhixia agree? She quickly refused and said, "No, I can just find a hotel to stay in."

Lu Quan: "Listen, I'm worried about you being alone in City C, or do you want me to go there in person to accompany you?"

Liang Zhixia had to agree.

Lu Quan: "Zhizhi, be good. I'll send you the address."

The two chatted for a while as if no one was around.

Ji Chaohao couldn't stand it anymore and kicked over the trash can on the roadside of the community, and said viciously: "Liang Zhixia, I'm talking to you, did you hear me?"

Liang Zhixia just hung up the phone and saw the kicked over trash can. The mixed garbage fell to the ground, emitting an unpleasant smell.

He said: "Ji Chaohao, we are not familiar with each other, I have no obligation to talk to you."

Ji Chaohao smiled: "Do you believe that I will go home and tell my mother about you?"

Liang Zhixia frowned slightly, and a hint of disgust flashed in her eyes: "Lu Manman won't tell my mother."

Although Ji Chaohao didn't know who Lu Manman was, he heard the disgust in Liang Zhixia's tone.

"You--"

A taxi stopped in front of the two. When Liang Zhixia saw the driver from the front window, his expression was startled. It was the uncle driver from the afternoon.

The uncle driver seemed to recognize him. After seeing him sit down, he stepped on the accelerator and drove out before Ji Chaohao could speak.

"Young man, we meet again."

Liang Zhixia's eyes curved slightly: "Thank you, uncle."

In the rearview mirror, he saw Ji Chaohao kicking the fallen trash can in a rage, and soon the security guard in the community came out.

He retracted his gaze and looked at his phone. Lu Quan had sent him the address and door lock password.

Half an hour later, he got out of the car.

The community in front of him was thousands of times more upscale than the community where Ji Chaohao lived. There were also 24-hour patrols at night. He pushed his suitcase to the security booth and saw the security guard smiling and saying, "Are you Mr. Liang Zhixia?"

Liang Zhixia nodded in confusion.

The security guard said in a very good manner: "Please sign here, and I will ask my colleagues to take you to Mr. Lu's residence."

When he heard the words Mr. Lu, he knew that Lu Quan must have called in advance.

After being personally sent to Lu Quan's residence by the security guard, he looked at the password on his phone and pressed them one by one. With a click, the door opened.

All the lights in the house were on, dispelling the darkness.

Liang Zhixia looked at the furnishings in the house with a surprised expression. The furniture here was very complete, and there were even decorative paintings on the walls.

He originally thought that this would be an undecorated model house style, but he didn't expect that it was all decorated and looked very clean.

Dinglingling -

he looked down at the screen of his mobile phone, which showed Lu Quan's name.

"Lu Quan."

Lu Quan responded, "Someone cleans this house every day. I'll have someone come to cook for you tomorrow."

"No, it's too troublesome."

Liang Zhixia quickly refused.

Lu Quan raised his eyebrows and said, "Why refuse? I just want to be nicer to my boyfriend, is that not okay?" "

..."

Liang Zhixia: "...Okay."

Lu Quan liked the way Zhizhi changed her mind because of him, which made him feel that Zhizhi cared about him.

After hanging up the phone, Liang Zhixia took out the clothes for change from the suitcase and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

After taking a shower, he lay on the soft bed while marveling at the life of rich people.

After what happened this afternoon and evening, he was very tired physically, but his spirit was a little too excited and he had some insomnia.

The phone that was charging on the bedside table vibrated with a buzzing sound.

He tilted his head to pick up the phone and turned it on.

[Lu Quan]: Can't you sleep?

Liang Zhixia looked around the room after hearing this.

[lzx]: Is there a surveillance camera installed in the room?

[Lu Quan]: Yes, because I don't live in that house all the time.

[Lu Quan]: Do you feel uncomfortable?

[lzx]: No.

Lu Quan, who was far away in City A, looked at the boy on the computer screen who didn't feel uncomfortable, and laughed out loud with some pleasure.

It seems that the camera in the dormitory doesn't need to be turned off.

Zhizhi must want him to keep watching him.

He will keep watching Zhizhi.

The boy in the surveillance camera opened his eyes wide, but yawned several times.

Lu Quan made a voice call.

"I'll tell you a story, can you sleep?"

Liang Zhixia instantly thought of the stories she had heard several times before, covered the lower half of her face with the quilt, pursed her lips and said, "Okay."

With the familiar voice in her ears, Liang Zhixia gradually closed her eyes and fell asleep soon.

There was only a shallow breathing sound in the microphone.

Lu Quan put the phone next to the pillow where he could hear it. His magnetic voice was particularly sexy and moving at night.

"Good night."

*

"Do you think your brother will really come?"

The yellow-haired man tugged at his collar, a cheap cigarette in his mouth, and seven or eight boys of similar age stood behind him.

Ji Chaohao sneered: "He won't not come. If he doesn't come, he won't be able to get the photos."

The yellow-haired man stretched his legs and squatted on the curb. Smoke came out of his nostrils. He took out his phone and played a game with one hand.

Sure enough, not long after, Liang Zhixia appeared across the street.

Ji Chaohao smiled and said, "Are all the things ready?"

The yellow-haired man didn't even raise his head and said, "Everything is ready. You are still not confident that I can do things. Today I will definitely leave a deep impression on your brother and he will never forget it."

Across the street.

Liang Zhixia counted the seconds of the red light and lowered her head to send a message to Lu Quan.

[Zhizhi]: I'm here now. I'll go to the hotel opposite to celebrate Ji Chaohao's birthday later.

【知知】: You sent L a location

message but Lu Quan didn't reply.

The pedestrian traffic light just turned green, he put away his phone and walked to the other side.

There were several boys standing on the curb.

Liang Zhixia took a glance and saw that these were the people he had met that day.

But Ji Chaohao didn't tell him that he was celebrating his birthday with these people.

"You celebrated your birthday with them?"

Ji Chaohao smiled very badly: "Is it not okay to celebrate your birthday with friends?"

He looked at the yellow-haired man next to him: "What do you think?"

The yellow-haired man exhaled the last puff of cigarette, extinguished the cigarette butt on the side of the road, and said with a smile: "Of course it's okay, could it be that our brother has never celebrated his birthday with friends?"

Ji Chaohao raised his eyebrows and smiled: "You don't know this, my brother doesn't have so many friends."

Liang Zhixia knew that this birthday party would be a Hongmen Banquet.

The yellow-haired man stood up and wanted to despise him, but he was not as tall as him, so he touched the back of his head awkwardly: "Then let's let our brother experience what it feels like to celebrate his birthday with friends today?"

At the same time.

C City Airport.

Xu Cheng glanced at Lu Quan who came with him, and was deeply moved: "Liu'er, I really didn't expect you to accompany me to the competition."

Lu Quan glanced at him coldly: "Not to accompany you."

Xu Cheng was stunned: "Then why did you come to City C?"

As far as he knew, Lu Quan didn't have any particularly close friends in City C.

He: "Are you here on a business trip?"

Lu Quan wrote down the name of the hotel on his phone, put away his phone, and turned to look at Xu Cheng who knew nothing.

"I came to accompany my boyfriend."
