    40 Chapter 40

    â—ŽAre you busy recently?â—Ž

    Ruan Jichuan made a move and said in a funny tone: “Young Master, I have been chasing you for half a year, and you just reacted?”

    But he soon had a bad premonition. Generally speaking, this kind of line would only bring two endings, one is “How about we try it” and the other is “I’m sorry I don’t like you.”

    As if he was waiting for the judge to pronounce the verdict, he covered Shen Lingjun’s mouth when he was about to say something, and said nervously: “Wait a moment…”

    He took several deep breaths and said, “I’m going to be mentally prepared. You’ll talk about it later. We’ll talk about it later.”

    Shen Lingjun blinked and watched him wait obediently until Ruan Jichuan let go of his hand and made a sign of the cross as if praying: “Just say it.”

    Shen Lingjun gave the third answer abruptly, without saying anything shocking, “I always thought you were chasing my brother, and I was just an excuse for you to chase him.”

    Ruan Jichuan almost gasped. This answer was even more painful for him than rejecting him on the spot. It directly declared how failed he was in pursuing the person. Not only did the real owner not feel it, but all the hard work for so long was in vain and was settled on someone else.

    He patted his heart and said, “Fortunately your brother is not here.”

    Otherwise, he will really be laughed at in the next life.

    Shen Lingjun continued to analyze rationally: “Although my brother’s ex-boyfriend was involuntary, it can also prove his orientation to a certain extent. He should like men, right? You and he have known each other since childhood. Maybe it’s because you have a hard time expressing love in your heart. Recently, you have finally made up your mind to take action.”

    Ruan Jichuan felt that his heartbeat was as if he had touched a switch, and he was dying in waves. He refused to give up and asked: “Then what do you mean to me…”

    Shen Lingjun said a little embarrassedly: “I have always regarded you as my sister-in-law.”

    No one can be killed by jumping from the second floor, but Ruan Jichuan is already dead now, as pale as a paper man whose color has been taken away, so pale that he will fall over when the wind blows.

    Shen Lingjun tugged on his hand and said, “Brother Jichuan.”

    “Don’t be too sad.” He actually didn’t want to let Ruan Jichuan down like this, but there was no room for compromise between liking and disliking. He could only make it clear earlier to avoid Ruan Jichuan spending more time on him later.

    “But I like playing with you very much.” Shen Lingjun continued: “I don’t mean to ask you to pretend that nothing has happened and continue to get along with me like this. What I mean is… you have always been like an elder brother in my heart, so it is up to you to decide whether to be friends or not.”

    Ruan Jichuan looked at him motionless. The green eyes behind him mixed with the harsh summer light made his eyes hurt. Finally, he pinched Shen Lingjun’s cheeks helplessly and said with a bitter smile: “If you hadn’t been unable to drink, you would definitely not have been able to escape from this love-break situation tonight.”

    He turned around and waved his hand: “I’m going to go have a drink with Lin Fan. I’ll come and play with you another day.”

    Shen Lingjun said nothing more, the comfort seemed too pale. He watched Ruan Jichuan’s figure disappear in front of his eyes in silence, and sighed softly.

    Recently, Liang Ji’an has not been as strict with him as before, and he is also allowed to go out alone or go shopping with friends.

    Shen Lingjun thought it was his brother who finally realized that he was going to college, so he should be given some free space?

    This feeling can’t be said to be good or bad, it just feels a little empty in life. Shen Lingjun concluded that he was too free during this period, so he would be honest if he learned to drive.

    He Wenzai reported to Liang Ji’an what Shen Lingjun did today.

    He now stays in the old house and is responsible for taking care of the young master. Shen Lingjun is not a person who has many things to do. He Wen’s affairs seem to be much less, but in fact he spends a lot of energy every day. After all, Liang Jian on the other side is the really difficult person to take care of.

    “I had breakfast at half past nine. I had a bowl of Yangchun noodles, an omelette, and two small shaomai. I didn’t eat much staple food at lunch, half a bowl of rice and four chicken wings…”

    “I didn’t have any rest in the afternoon. I went to the garden to learn how to plant flowers with the gardener. He also said that he wanted to study gardening. The young master has changed his job to several jobs recently. He even said two days ago that he wanted to learn cooking.”

    “Mr. Ruan also came here today, but he left after not staying long.”

    Liang Ji’an listened patiently, and the screen in front of him kept switching between the scenes from the old house’s camera, and finally stopped at the scene in the garden.

    Shen Lingjun held a pair of big scissors and carefully followed the gardener to cut branches and leaves, asking a few questions from time to time.

    He is not a very patient person, but that doesn’t matter, because he is interested in everything, so he is never bored.

    Liang Ji’an asked: “Did he ask about me?”

    He Wen immediately replied: “Yes, the young master even said today that he wanted to go back and see you.”

    Liang Ji’an thought for a while and said, “Tell him that I will go back when school starts soon. If he wants to see me, he can come to the company.”

    After hanging up the phone, Liang Ji’an sent a message to Shen Lingjun.

    [Do you want to live on campus after school starts?Is there any inconvenience?】

    Shen Lingjun replied quickly: [Didn’t you say that two people sleep in separate bathrooms?I can accept it. I used to live in an eight-person dormitory when I was studying in my hometown. I will pay more attention to it myself.】

    Liang Ji’an respected his wishes and replied: [Okay.】

    Shen Lingjun sent another message: [Brother, are you very busy at work recently?】

    It was just an ordinary greeting, but Liang Jian didn’t know how to reply. He was used to high-intensity work. It should be said that the relaxation he had some time ago was his abnormal state.

    After a while, Liang Jian replied: “Fortunately, I will go back to my old house when I have free time in the past two days.”】

    The previous embarrassing situation was gradually being forgotten with the passage of time, and Shen Lingjun was slowly and successfully brainwashing himself. His brother might have been a normal reaction that he had been holding in for a long time. The top priority should be for them both to find someone to talk to.

    Liang Jian said he would go back in the next two days, but in fact he returned to his old house that night. Not only was He Wen full of surprise, but even Shen Lingjun, who was mentally prepared, did not expect it.

    “Brother!” Shen Lingjun subconsciously ran towards him. He was still very close to Liang Ji’an in his heart. He had deliberately restrained himself and hid it well in the past. But now that he hadn’t seen him for a long time, he missed Liang Ji’an especially. His body reacted before his brain, and he plunged directly into Liang Ji’an’s arms.

    Liang Jian hugged him into his arms.

    What does Shen Lingjun look like?

    Like a grumpy cat, it unilaterally declared the Cold War for no apparent reason and ignored others, and then unilaterally and unexpectedly ended the Cold War without caring about the lives of others.

    But Liang Ji’an still hugged him very contentedly, as if something was filled all of a sudden, and his heart was hot.

    [The author has something to say]

    BOO BOO BOO BOO!
