One-way Passage - Chapter 22

     Lukawa’s room is on the side of the corridor.

    Xia Wennan stood at the door and looked in, reluctant to go in.

    Ming Luchuan turned on the ceiling light in the room and pulled Xia Wennan in.

    Xia Wennan hurriedly backed away, went all the way to the window, and said to Ming Luchuan, “Don’t mess around.”

    Ming Luchuan looked at him coldly, moved slowly, but walked towards the bathroom.

    When the bathroom door was closed, Ming Luchuan disappeared, and Xia Wennan breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the whole room.

    The room is actually very ordinary, spacious and simple, brightly lit, with a double bed in the middle and a wardrobe against the wall.

    Xia Wennan thought he would see something from Ming Luchuan’s childhood, but there was nothing, only a photo on the bedside table, a group photo of several people.

    In the photo, one of the people looks like Ming Luchuan in his teenage years. At that time, he was already quite tall, and the silhouette of his handsome facial features can be seen now; beside him there is a pair of The exact same Omega boy is Ming Siyan and Ming Sichen. The two are together and have a good relationship. On the other side of Minglu River is the last person in the photo. He is also an Omega boy, not like the Ming family, but A very beautiful Omega, with curved eyebrows, bright eyes, and a sweet smile.

    Xia Wennan picked up the photo and looked at it for a while before putting it down. He went back to the window and looked down, and saw that the window was facing the garden on the first floor. The street lights in the garden are still bright, and moths are flying around the lights.

    After a while, Ming Luchuan put on his pajamas after taking a shower and came out of the bathroom. He buttoned up his pajamas and said to Xia Wennan, “Go take a bath.”

    Xia Wennan didn’t move, he asked Ming Luchuan, “Do you really want to sleep here? But there is only one bed.”

    Ming Luchuan still exudes warm water vapor, his temples are soaked, and his skin is moist. He walked to the bed and sat down: “I won’t do anything to you.”

    Xia Wennan looked at him for a while, then hesitantly moved to the bathroom.

    The bathroom was filled with mist, but the mirror was translucent. Xia Wennan touched it curiously and found that the mirror was hot. Then he saw two sets of toothbrush cups on the sink, and more than one clean towel on the towel rack next to him.

    He walked to the door, unlocked the door lock just now, probed out and asked, “Is there still my toothbrush here?”

    Ming Luchuan got up from the bed and walked towards him. When he opened the door, he pushed it open together with Xia Wennan. He showed Xia Wennan which towels and toothbrushes were his, and also told Xia Wennan which ones were on the shelf. The clean pajamas are his.

    These things are clean, but obviously not brand new.

    Xia Wennan was confused, thinking that he must have lived here, he pushed Ming Luchuan out, locked the bathroom door to take a bath.

    Before going to bed, Xia Wennan pulled out a clean sheet in the cabinet, knelt on the bed, folded the sheet into a slender shape, and placed it in the middle of the bed to separate the two of them.

    Ming Luchuan sat next to him and looked at him coldly. When Xia Wennan put the sheets on and looked up, Ming Luchuan said, “Are you sick?”

    Xia Wennan is righteous: “Didn’t I just break my head?”

    Ming Luchuan’s thin mouth drooped down, making his face look extremely cold: “Do you think a sheet can stop me?”

    Xia Wennan said: “A gentleman is not a villain.”

    “I said I was a gentleman?”

    Xia Wennan squatted on the bed, suddenly smiled at Ming Luchuan, and smiled sweetly: “I think you are.”

    “Neurotic!” Ming Luchuan turned his eyes away.

    The ceiling light was turned off, and the two of them lay down in total darkness, neither touching the twisted sheet in the middle.

    Xia Wennan only drank a little wine and could hardly feel the influence of alcohol. He opened his eyes with active thinking until he gradually adapted to the darkness in the room and saw the strange outlines around him.

    He suddenly said, “You said your brother was also in a car accident?”

    Ming Luchuan did not answer him immediately, but said after a while: “I fell asleep just now.”

    Xia Wennan was surprised: “You sleep so well?”

    Ming Luchuan drank a lot of wine at night, and his brain and body were tired. Even if he was not happy, his tone would not be cold and hard in this environment, but a little soft and unpleasant. Said, “Why are you so rude?”

    Xia Wennan immediately said, “I’m sorry.” Then after waiting for a few seconds, he asked, “Then are you awake now?”

    Ming Luchuan said: “What do you want to say?”

    “I can’t sleep and want to chat with you.”

    “What are you talking about if you don’t sleep at night?”

    “You are so boring, how could I have liked you before?” Xia Wennan was also a little unhappy, “You tell me honestly, did you catch me and force me to marry you? of?”

    Speaking of this, Xia Wennan suddenly felt that his mind had broadened, he turned over and sat up and looked down at Ming Luchuan: “You said that the perfume I developed is the most popular in the market now. , I’m so good, of course you want to do everything possible to keep me in Mingyan, so you forced me to marry you, right?”

    Ming Luchuan didn’t speak. In the dark, he could see his bright eyes open and looking at Xia Wennan. After waiting for a while, he said, “You have crossed the line.”

    Only then did Xia Wennan realize that he had crossed the line drawn by the sheets, put his head to Mingluchuan’s side, and quickly said, “I’m sorry.” Then he stepped back.

    Laying back on his pillow, Xia Wennan whispered, “Why are you so stingy?” After speaking, he continued: “The question I asked you just now, you dare not answer me, do you? “

    Mingluchuan’s voice sounded rustling in the silent night, like an old record played slowly: “I said at the beginning that you liked me and proposed to me. “

    Xia Wennan didn’t even think about it: “I don’t believe it.”

    Ming Luchuan did not ask why. If he asked, Xia Wennan’s thinking would turn to the strange theory that others would not fall in love with chickens. Ming Luchuan just turned his back to Xia Wennan, the bed rubbed and made a tired sound.

    Xia Wennan looked at his back and suddenly felt a little lonely, so he said in a serious tone: “I don’t remember, I don’t know if it’s true or not. If it’s true…” Wanted to say “I’m sorry then because I’m pretty sure I don’t love you now”, but he didn’t say it. He always felt that these words were too hypocritical, but he was not a hypocritical person.

    He grew up with his grandfather, they were very hard, but they were cheerful and optimistic. The sadness of the death of a loved one and the poverty of the family are the realities in front of us, but one cannot get out of that feeling of inferiority and self-pity. As long as you plan to continue living, you must divert your attention, look at the relatives around you, and work hard for the future life.

    In those days when he was living with his grandfather, the only entertainment at home was a color TV, they never watched those provocative and sad programs, and tried to make themselves full of laughter and laughter hope.

    So why bother…
