The Downtrodden Villain In A Redemption Romance Novel Chapter 92

Chapter 92 Breakthrough

After the fireworks that night, Xu Wen became a little uneasy.

Lu Qingrang was keenly aware of his strangeness. Several times, he looked over with his beautiful peach blossom eyes and asked softly: “Xu Wen, what’s wrong with you?”

How can Xu Wen himself answer?

Even he himself couldn’t figure out what was going on.

[You are brothers who have a very harmonious relationship.】

The calm mechanical sound made Xu Wen feel harsh for the first time.

All those things that he had deliberately ignored and always used as a “good brother” to forcefully rationalize them all turned into question marks at this moment:

Will your heart beat faster and your breathing become uncomfortable when you are close to a good brother?

The good brothers even frowned slightly and couldn’t help but ponder for a long time, wondering if they were unhappy?

Good brothers will always subconsciously look for that figure in the crowd. Only when they see it can they feel at ease?

Will good brothers sleep on the same bed, falling asleep in a hug so tight that they can hear each other’s heartbeats?

He can help Lu Qingrang find an explanation. He is too lacking in love and too dependent on him.

But Xu Wen couldn’t give himself an answer.

Although he was an orphan in his previous life, he was warmed here and there.Those good intentions taught him to distinguish who was sincerely good to him and who was hypocritical, but no one had ever taught him what it meant when facing someone, his heart felt soft and swollen, and he wanted to protect him and monopolize him.

The original mission to survive and receive tens of millions of bonuses has long since changed.

What are all these unclear and unexplained emotions?

Xu Wen thought so hard that he still couldn’t figure it out.

——————

An ordinary weekday afternoon.

In the tea room, the afternoon sun slanted in.

Xu Wen walked into the tea room with a cup in hand, preparing to forcefully awaken himself from a trance with a cup of coffee.

He operated the coffee machine skillfully, but his thoughts drifted away uncontrollably, thinking about the unsolvable problem during this period.

“Xu Zhu!”

A clear female voice sounded from behind, interrupting his trance. It was Chu Lin, a colleague from the Human Resources Department.

Xu Wen quickly calmed down and politely stepped aside to give up his seat: “Want to use the coffee machine? I’ll be there soon.”

Chu Lin smiled and handed over a small box of fresh milk: “Xu Zhu, don’t always drink American style that is so bitter. Try adding this. The taste will be much better.”

“Thank you.” Xu Wen took it, maintaining a gentle and distant smile, and his men moved faster.

Xu Wen made coffee, said goodbye and turned to leave, but was stopped by Chu Lin again.

“Xu Zhu, you forgot the lid of your cup!”

Xu Wen turned back with some embarrassment and took the lid of the cup: “Ah, I almost forgot, thank you.”

He was about to turn around and leave again, but Chu Lin stopped him.

“Hey, Xu Zhu, may I ask you a question?”

Xu Wen stopped and tilted his head to look at Chu Lin in confusion.

Chu Lin had curiosity on her face, she moved slightly closer to Xu Wen, and asked a bombshell question in her voice:

“Xu Zhu, how long have you and Mr. Lu been together?”

“!!!”

Xu Wen was caught off guard by this question, and his mind instantly went blank.

He blinked and looked at the curious girl in front of him. He could only put on a dry smile and made an excuse somewhat incoherently: “Mr. Lu still has something to ask me for. You are busy.” After that, he took the cup of coffee without a lid and walked away quickly with messy steps.

Xu Wen could even hear the suppressed chuckles of several other young colleagues behind him and whispers such as “Chu Lin, how dare you ask” and “I’ve long said that Xu Zhu’s name is already taken care of”.

“How long have you and Mr. Lu been together?” This sentence repeated in his mind.

Is this how others see them?

This realization made his scalp numb, and he didn’t even know how he got to the door of the office.

He pushed open the door stiffly, almost on instinct.

Inside the door, Lu Qingrang was getting up from his seat and preparing to go to the lounge. The sound of the door opening made him subconsciously raise his head and lock his eyes on Xu Wen’s face standing at the door.

Xu Wen’s face was flushed abnormally, his eyes were unfocused, and he was completely lost in thought.

Lu Qingrang’s heart tightened and he immediately said: “What’s wrong?”

“It’s okay!” Xu Wen almost answered quickly.

His eyes wandered, not daring to meet the eyes that made his heart beat out of control. He put the coffee cup on the table, and a few drops of liquid spilled due to the shock.”I’m going to the bathroom!”

Not giving Lu Qing any time to react, he rushed out like a gust of wind.

In the bathroom, the cold water flowed loudly.

Xu Wen placed his hands on the cold table, water drops dripping down his hair and chin.

He raised his head and looked at himself in the mirror with panic-stricken eyes, unusually red cheeks, and signs that something was wrong all over his body.

Once again, he asked the system in his mind for confirmation: “Lu Qingrang and I, I think he is beautiful, I think he is cute, I tolerate him, and the hugs one by one, are we really just brothers who have a harmonious relationship?”

[You are brothers who have a very harmonious relationship.】

The calm mechanical voice gave the unchanging answer.

No!No!

Xu Wen rubbed his face irritably, an idea flashed in his mind, and he changed a new angle, with urgency:

“System, if, I say if, Xiao Wang from the technical department and Xiao Chu from the human resources department find each other cute, tolerate each other, hug each other every day, and sleep together. What kind of relationship is this?”

The mechanical sound sounded again, but the answer was different:

[Most likely it is a relationship between husband and wife or lovers.】

“???”

Xu Wenru was struck by lightning and completely froze in place. His helpless face was reflected in the mirror.

Not giving up, he changed the combination again: “Well, what if it’s Zhou Yan and Xiao Wang from the technical department like this?”

[They are brothers who have a very harmonious relationship.】

“grass!”

Xu Wen couldn’t help it any longer, and a sense of absurdity that he was being played went straight to the top of his head. He slammed his palm on the hard sink, causing the water droplets on the counter to tremble.

“Artificial retardation! Complete artificial retardation!” He cursed a few times uncontrollably.

[The data of this system comes from XX Encyclopedia and related sociology databases.The decision logic has been strictly verified and is for reference only.】

Xu Wen closed his eyes and took a deep breath, not wanting to argue anymore.

The answer that had always been vague appeared before his eyes. It was so simple that it made him want to laugh, and it was so shocking that it made his head spin.

so it is.

The bottomless indulgence, the constant attention to him, the inexplicably accelerated heartbeat, and the selfishness that you don’t want to share with anyone.

It’s not a brotherhood at all.

He likes him.
