Li Zhenruo considerably felt chilled.
He all the time thought that the reply he acquired from Aunt Wu this time can be Li Zhentai. Zhu Kai, and Li Zhentai. Zhu Kai acquired his blood pattern from Aunt Wu after which gave it to Li Zhentai, who requested Yue Zijia to ship it for a paternity check.
Earlier than, he all the time puzzled, the place did Li Jianglin’s semen come from? He believed it was not doable that Yue Zijia would go so far as seducing Li Jianglin, proper? Now he was starting to suspect the likelihood that Li Jianglin’s semen was additionally obtained by Zhu Kai.
Li Jianglin had all the time doted on Zhu Kai. Zhu Kai prompted a lot bother at Li Zhentai’s wedding ceremony and Li Jianglin couldn’t maintain him accountable. He even took him when he went to recuperate.
Though there have been many illegitimate kids and mistresses, in Li Zhenruo’s impression, since Zhu Yun’s dying, Li Jianglin had by no means had any involvement with different ladies. He all the time felt that it was from Li Jianglin’s affection for Zhu Yun. Now that he considered it, Zhu Kai and Zhu Yun seemed comparable. Might it’s that Li Jianglin merely took Zhu Kai as a stand-in for Zhu Yun?
He took a deep breath and instructed himself to relax. He wanted to type this out.
Aunt Wu was nonetheless crying, however Li Zhenruo didn’t have any resentment towards her. In spite of everything, she was solely getting used, and even with out her, underneath the identical roof, Zhu Kai might all the time discover another manner.
Li Zhenruo had inquired about what he wished to know, however Aunt Wu was nonetheless trapped in self-blame and couldn’t eliminate it. Earlier than he left, he gave Aunt Wu 200 yuan and requested if he might take the kitten away.
Aunt Wu agreed with out a lot thought.
Li Zhenruo carried the cat in his arms to the automobile, and Yan Xiujie was hesitant to say something. When the automobile left the small highway and entered the primary highway, he lastly couldn’t assist however ask, “What’s your relationship with Li Zhenruo?”
It was not that Li Zhenruo couldn’t belief Yan Xiujie. Quite the opposite, amongst his many family members and mates prior to now, Yan Xiujie was most likely one of many folks he trusted probably the most. However as soon as quite a lot of issues have been stated, there have been too many issues to clarify, and it might implicate too many individuals. For him now, it was finest to proceed the earlier assertion with Li Zhenran.
So he stated to Yan Xiujie, “I’m his pal. I consider his dying was not an accident.”
Yan Xiujie turned his head to take a look at him, “You’re his pal? However I’ve by no means heard him point out you.”
Li Zhenruo stated, “However he typically mentions you to me. He trusts you very a lot and thought that his relationship with you is extra of a pal.”
Yan Xiujie appeared to squeeze the steering wheel tightly.
Li Zhenruo reached out and pressed calmly on his arm, “Do you consider that Jason’s dying was simply an accident?”
Yan Xiujie stated calmly, “I don’t know, however I didn’t doubt it earlier than.”
Li Zhenruo was not Li Jianglin’s organic son and had been kicked out of the Li household, so long as the 2 appraisal certificates weren’t overturned, he would by no means have an opportunity to show round. So who would kill him? What was the purpose of killing him?
This was not solely unimaginable to Yan Xiujie, however even Li Zhenruo nonetheless discovered it unusual.
However Li Zhenruo himself knew that the particular person’s look that day was purposeful. It was not some unintended theft, however he got here for Li Zhenruo. On this world, there was actually such an individual who wished him to die.
He wished to seek out the particular person.
Li Zhenruo stated to Yan Xiujie, “Whether or not you consider it or not, I hope you may assist me. It doesn’t matter what the result’s, now we have to know the reality, don’t we?”
Yan Xiujie took a deep breath, “I may also help you what I can do, however what I can do that will help you proper now’s actually restricted.”
What the present Yan Xiujie might do was certainly very restricted. In spite of everything, he was simply an odd worker of Yunlin.
Li Zhenruo stated, “It doesn’t matter what, thanks.”
After talking, he lowered his head and gently stroked the highest of the kitten’s head.
Yan Xiujie noticed his light actions and requested, “Do you want cats very a lot?”
Li Zhenruo stated “um”, “I prefer it.”
If it wasn’t for being a cat himself, he thought he wouldn’t like cats a lot.
Yan Xiujie requested him once more, “Are you going again?”
Li Zhenruo was surprised, “The place to?”
Yan Xiujie stated, “Return to see Second Younger Grasp.”
Li Zhenruo appeared to sigh unconsciously and stated, “I’ll return. I’ll go see him.” His relationship with Li Zhenran shouldn’t be so unclear, even when it was over, they need to face it.
With Yan Xiujie driving him, it took quite a bit much less time to return than when he got here, however it was nonetheless nearly night when he entered town.
The very first thing that Li Zhenruo did once they returned to town was to ask Yan Xiujie to discover a pet clinic and deal with the injuries on the kitten. The kitten was meowing in ache. Li Zhenruo stood beside it and felt distressed.
Whereas he was watching the veterinarian take care of the kitten, Yan Xiujie made a cellphone name outdoors. After some time, he got here in and stated to Li Zhenruo, “Second Younger Grasp requested me to take you to him.”
Li Zhenruo nodded.
After treating the cat’s wounds, Li Zhenruo acquired within the automobile and seemed within the path Yan Xiujie was driving, and immediately realized that they have been going to Li Zhenran’s house within the metropolis, and never Li’s household villa.
He didn’t know if Li Zhenran had been dwelling there for the previous two days, or if Li Zhenran went there to attend for him right this moment.
Yan Xiujie drove downstairs and stopped to let Li Zhenruo get out of the automobile. Earlier than leaving, he stated to Li Zhenruo, “Name me if there’s something.”
Li Zhenruo nodded and replied, “Drive fastidiously.”
Yan Xiujie left, and Li Zhenruo walked into the neighbourhood with the cat in his arms. He stood underneath the house constructing and immediately realized that he couldn’t even enter the constructing with out the important thing, not to mention the elevator.
He took out his cell phone and known as Li Zhenran.
The cellphone was shortly linked, and Li Zhenran’s voice sounded impassive as he stated, “What?”
Li Zhenruo immediately felt a bit sullen and wronged, and stated, “I can’t go upstairs to your flooring.”
Li Zhenran heard the phrases and replied, “Wait a minute.” After that, he hung up the cellphone.
Li Zhenruo stood outdoors the unit constructing door and waited for about two minutes. He noticed that the constructing door was opened. Li Zhenran was carrying a lightweight gray informal sweater and light-weight gray sweatpants. He stood in entrance of him with slippers on the soles of his ft.
Clearly, they met within the college yesterday morning, however Li Zhenruo felt that he hadn’t seen Li Zhenran for a very long time so his eyes have been sore when he noticed him.
Li Zhenran seemed down on the cat in his hand and stated, “What? Discovered your future?”
Li Zhenruo was a bit indignant. He remembered the lady he delivered to Li Jianglin’s birthday banquet, and turned to go away.
Li Zhenran stepped ahead and grabbed his wrist and stated, “Had you had sufficient of enjoying? Are you prepared to return again with me?”
Li Zhenruo muttered, “I’m not enjoying.”
Li Zhenran stated, “I do know, you’re investigating the reason for Li Zhenruo’s dying. So what did you discover out this time?”
Li Zhenruo seemed up at him, hesitating whether or not to talk.
Li Zhenran stated, “Let’s go upstairs first.”
This was not an acceptable place to speak. Li Zhenruo felt Li Zhenran take his hand to stroll inside and didn’t refuse. Nonetheless, Li Zhenran didn’t let go of his hand till he acquired into the elevator.
The elevator went up quietly and easily. Li Zhenruo stood behind Li Zhenran, seemed down on the hand he was holding, and stated, “Li Zhenruo’s dying might have one thing to do with Zhu Kai.”
Li Zhenran didn’t look again, however stated, “Actually? Weren’t you very near him?”
As quickly as he completed talking, Li Zhenruo didn’t react at first and checked out him in confusion. After some time, he felt a chill on his again, and goosebumps climbed from head to ft.
He started to get nervous and wished to interrupt freed from Li Zhenran’s hand that was holding him, however Li Zhenran was holding on so tightly that he couldn’t break away in any respect.
Till the elevator stopped, and the elevator door slowly opened.
Li Zhenran wished to tug him to go outdoors, however Li Zhenruo refused to go. He pressed his again firmly in opposition to the internal wall of the elevator and stared at Li Zhenran with a terrified expression.
The 2 have been deadlocked for a second as a result of the elevator door was blocked by Li Zhenran, it couldn’t be closed for a very long time, and an alarm sounded.
Li Zhenran stated to Li Zhenruo, “Are you able to come out first?”
Li Zhenruo stated, “Let go of me first.”
Li Zhenran let go of his hand and exited the elevator first, however simply pressed the button outdoors to stop the elevator door from closing.
Li Zhenruo hugged the cat in his arms tighter. He felt chilly from head to toe, and solely the cat in his arms was nonetheless heat. He lastly acquired out of the elevator, however nonetheless leaned in opposition to the wall to take a look at Li Zhenran and stated, ” When do you know?”
Li Zhenran’s expression was calm, “I’ve my suspicion for some time. I wasn’t certain till simply now, Li Zhenruo.”
It was not the primary time that Li Zhenruo heard his title from Li Zhenran’s mouth, however it was the primary time to handle him face-to-face, and it was as if he had returned to the previous. At the moment, he was at house, and Li Zhenran got here again from the skin. When Li Zhenran noticed him, he simply nodded coldly, with out even a smile, circled and went upstairs straight.
This was the connection he had all the time had with Li Zhenran. Despite the fact that they grew up collectively, that they had by no means been intimate, and they didn’t intend to ease or enhance this relationship.
He clearly thought in his coronary heart that he couldn’t proceed to depend on Li Zhenran, however at this second, Li Zhenruo realized that what he was most afraid of was that Li Zhenran would by no means settle for him once more.
They have been brothers, and he had been deceiving him and making the most of him, what would Li Zhenran consider their relationship?
Li Zhenruo stared at Li Zhenran. He didn’t even know what to say, however he simply wished to see Li Zhenran’s response clearly.
Nonetheless, presently Li Zhenran stated, “Not going again but? How lengthy are you going to face right here?”
Li Zhenruo stated, “I…” He solely stated one phrase, and the remaining was caught in his throat. He didn’t know what to say presently.
He took a step ahead fastidiously however didn’t get out of the elevator. He hugged the cat tightly with one hand, leaned in opposition to the elevator door, and his different hand secretly pressed the elevator door closing button.
The elevator door started to emit an alarm sound. Li Zhenran barely lowered his head and glanced at his hand, seemingly conscious of his actions. At the moment, he launched the hand holding the elevator door.
Instantly after he let go, the elevator door slowly closed.
Li Zhenruo noticed that Li Zhenran saved him, and on the final second, earlier than the elevator door closed, he noticed that Li Zhenran confirmed a tragic expression.
Nonetheless, the elevator door nonetheless closed tightly with a tender sound after which started to descend.
Li Zhenruo immediately felt a bit weak in his legs and squatted down within the elevator with the cat in his arms.
He ran away, and he didn’t even know why he was working. At that second, his feelings have been too sophisticated, he was nervous and scared, and he didn’t dare to face what he needed to face subsequent. He was afraid to hearken to what Li Zhenran would proceed to say.
Strolling out of the neighbourhood the place Li Zhenran lived, Li Zhenruo walked a brief distance and sat down on the sting of the flower mattress beside the highway with the cat in his arms. He buried his face within the tender physique of the kitten and closed his eyes.
Li Zhenruo felt that he was fairly ineffective. When the time got here, he solely knew easy methods to escape, and he didn’t even have the braveness to face it.
The kitten was uncomfortable and began to battle with a purring sound.
Li Zhenruo shortly raised his head and stated to it, “I’m sorry.”
It didn’t matter if he wandered outdoors alone, however he simply felt sorry for the kitten. After all, he didn’t have the power to maintain one other cat now, however till the time got here, he hoped to discover a accountable proprietor in order that nobody would harm it once more.
Li Zhenruo stood up and turned to take a look at the tall buildings within the neighbourhood, however discovered that he didn’t even know which constructing and which window it was. He couldn’t assist however recall Li Zhenran’s look, and immediately felt a stuffy ache in his chest.
He immediately felt a bit regretful, and thought would it not be higher if he didn’t run away? But when he didn’t go away, what would Li Zhenran say to him? What was the look in Li Zhenran’s eyes imply? That he was mendacity to him and he was dissatisfied? Or that he was Li Zhenruo, and did he suppose it was nonetheless doable between them?
Li Zhenruo shook his head vigorously to cease himself from fascinated with it. He couldn’t cease himself from pondering in a extra pessimistic path, as if right this moment was the top for him and Li Zhenran.
The creator has one thing to say:
The manuscript is sort of gone, I can solely scale back the variety of phrases to keep up the each day replace…
Notes:
Lmao, how lame it was? Zhenran cooly answered Zhenruo’s name however then realised Zhenruo can’t are available in coz he didn’t have the important thing so he want to return down and picked him up (´∀`)
Zhenran knew it from the beginning, huh?
