Chapter 71: CH 72

The director sat next to Lu Yuanbai and spoke earnestly and sincerely.

Lu Yuanbai had told him that he was twenty years younger than him. If he got married earlier, Lu Yuanbai would be his son at this age.

When Lu Yuanbai gave the chicken legs to the mother and child, the director saw that Lu Yuanbai was a very kind child, and he really worried about Lu Yuanbai and wished him well.

After all, the two have worked together for so many years, and it can be regarded as mutual achievement.

Before Lu Yuanbai got married, he was very worried. For a while, he even wondered whether this kid Lu Yuanbai would be excluded from his career or the stage when he married into the Duan family.

But now seeing Duan Yu taking care of Lu Yuanbai as if he was taking care of his heart, the director knew that he was worrying too much.

Lu Yuanbai is still giving the big boss a wink, so there is no need for him to worry.

Seeing Lu Yuanbai who looked down at the apple and saying, the director got angry and stepped forward to slap Lu Yuanbai on the head, “You listen to what I say.”

Lu Yuanbai was stunned for a moment, then raised his hand and touched his head, his voice was flat, “[I’m] Listening.”

“Then what did I say?”

The director looked at him.

Lu Yuanbai didn’t speak for a while. Then he summarized the general meaning of the director, “Be nicer to Mr. Duan in the future.”

Who would have thought that the director would be dissatisfied after saying this, “Is that how you call him at home?”

” …”

Lu Yuanbai looked at him and didn’t know what he said wrong, and then nodded.

The director hated iron for not becoming steel, “What’s the matter with Mr. Duan, you can’t call him intimate?”

The two are still married by agreement, and they can’t reveal this to outsiders. Although Lu Yuanbai wanted to refute, he swallowed the words in the end, and replied: “What do you call it?”

The director: “Be more intimate.”

After Lu Yuanbai heard this, he went quiet. The director could tell by Lu Yuanbai’s appearance that this kid would not reveal anything.

“Change! It’s fine for you, kid to be intimate in front of people. Don’t you still treat them coldly when you go home?”

Lu Yuanbai pursed his lips and looked at the man not far away, and then said to the director: “Why are you so close to him?”

It seemed that it was not Lu Yuanbai but Duan Yu who had cooperated with Director Zhang for several years.

However, at this time, Director Zhang saw Duan Yu as the mother-in-law, the more she watched her son-in-law, the more she was satisfied, “He is such a big company. The big boss is busy for you, what else do you want?”

Lu Yuanbai: “…”

Director : “I’m saying it for your own good. You can treat people better in the future, but you can’t continue to act like today.”

Lu Yuan nodded dully.

Director: “Don’t just nod your head, talk.”

Lu Yuanbai: “Got it.”

“What do you know?”

“Be kinder to him in the future.”

“How?”

The director is in hot pursuit.

Lu Yuanbai glanced at the director, knowing that he couldn’t do it, and then said very humiliatingly: “Take care of him, be intimate with him, be more caring.”

The director was satisfied after hearing this, “Okay, you can rest first, and start shooting in half an hour ”

After the director left, Lu Yuanbai breathed a sigh of relief.

This director,, Zhang, is also one of the few people who knows Lu Yuanbai’s inner character.

According to the relationship between Lu Yuanbai and Duan Yu in his heart at this time, he has nothing to do with Duan Yu.

But after what the director said just now, Lu Yuanbai couldn’t help but start to reflect on himself.

As Director Zhang said, he seemed to be a little arrogant.

After all, Duan Yu thought that he didn’t have to do this.

Lu Yuanbai cast his eyes in the direction of Duan Yu. At this time, the man seemed to have not finished dealing with his work and was talking with the person on the other end of the phone.

Summer breezes rarely brought some relief from the heat.

Lu Yuanbai sat under the shade of a tree with two bright red apples in his hands, narrowing his eyes slightly like a cat basking in the sun with its belly spread out.

When Duan Yu turned around after finishing the phone call, he saw Lu Yuanbai resting under the shade of a tree.

Duan Yu took lighter steps, walked up to Lu Yuanbai, sat down, and looked at the two glowing red apples that Lu Yuanbai was holding at the time.

He then picked up the small fan on the side and gave Lu Yuanbai a light breeze to cool off.

The young man is well-behaved and quiet when he sleeps.

Duan Yu kept a close eye on the young man, unaware that he could close his eyes and fall asleep safely just where he was.

Duan Yu reached out his hand to smooth the hair in front of Lu Yuanbai’s forehead, then his eyes fell on Lu Yuanbai’s face and kept going down; his eyes fell uncontrollably on Lu Yuanbai’s fair skin exposed by the unbuttoned neckline, on the neck and collarbone.

Duan Yu’s adam’s apple rolled up and down.

He forced himself to look away as he continued to give Lu Yuanbai wind with a small fan.

Lu Yuanbai, who was taking a nap, also felt the coolness and subconsciously leaned closer to Duan Yu’s side.

Duan Yu felt itchy when he saw it. It would be great if people were like this when they were awake.

Lu Yuanbai’s approach brought the distance between the two closer.

Duan Yu’s eyes fell on Lu Yuanbai’s lips.

He did not deny that he had always had a desire for Lu Yuanbai.

The other party is the one he loves, and having desires is the most common thing.

When Lu Yuanbai came to shoot in the small countryside, he left a letter for him. Duan Yu thought it shouldn’t be too much to give himself a little sweetness when he pursued Lu Yuanbai.

Then Duan Yu stared at Lu Yuanbai’s lips for a long time, then turned his head slightly.

“Yuan…”

The filming was about to start over, so Shen Yuchi, who originally planned to call Lu Yuanbai, froze on the spot when he saw the scene in front of him.

He saw Duan Yu tilting his head slightly, as if he were about to kiss him in the next moment.

Shen Yuchi was stung by the scene in front of him. The words he originally planned to tell Lu Yuanbai got stuck in his throat, leaving him unable to utter a single syllable.

It’s nothing surprising if the two of them kiss each other; the famous man in front of him is Lu Yuanbai’s legal partner. What he’s doing to Lu Yuanbai is the most common thing between a married couple.

Shen Yuchi’s voice clearly caught Duan Yu’s attention.

At this time, the distance between Duan Yu and Lu Yuanbai’s lips was extremely close, but because of the sudden intrusion of an outsider, Duan Yu stopped his movements.

Then he raised his eyes and looked at the person coming with a gloomy look.

After seeing Duan Yu’s eyes, Shen Yuchi froze in place for a moment, unable to even take a step.

Duan Yu took a look at that person; he knew this person; it was the one who sent flowers to Lu Yuanbai when he was working.

However, Duan Yu can also clearly see that the person in front of him has certain feelings towards Lu Yuanbai.

The eyes of the two met, and there was no goodwill between them.

A few seconds later, Duan Yu stopped looking at the person but turned his head and kissed Lu Yuanbai lightly in front of the person.

The kiss was very light, and it stayed on Lu Yuan’s fair cheek for a few seconds before leaving with some nostalgia.

Shen Yuchi, who was standing not far away, clenched his fists for a moment, knowing that the man in front of him would declare his sovereignty to him again.

Lu Yuanbai is his sovereign.

Not long after Duan Yu kissed Lu Yuanbai, Shen Yuchi turned and left.

After kissing Lu Yuanbai, Duan Yu was very happy for a while; this feeling can be said to be excellent.

Duan Yu has never been so intimate with anyone before, but the kiss just now gave him great satisfaction in his heart.

Seeing that the scene was being set up there, Duan Yu didn’t do anything but wake up Lu Yuanbai.

Lu Yuanbai opened his eyes in a daze.

Duan Yu looked at him, “It’s time to film.”

Lu Yuanbai just woke up and nodded obediently after hearing what Duan Yu said, then stood up and planned to go to the shooting location.

However, just a few steps away, he walked back.

Duan Yu was a little surprised for a moment.

“What happened?”

Lu Yuanbai didn’t say anything, and the next moment, Duan Yu had a big red apple in his hand.

Director Zhang’s words seemed to have some magical power. When Lu Yuanbai was sleeping, his mind was full of the sentence that Director Zhang said: To be nice to Duan Yu.

Immediately afterwards, without waiting for Duan Yu to say anything, Lu Yuanbai turned around and went to the shooting location.

When he first arrived at the venue, he found that the assistant director was talking to Shen Yuchi.

Shen Yuchi’s face was ugly, and when he saw him coming, his expression was a little complicated.

Lu Yuanbai didn’t take it seriously when he saw it; after all, the relationship between the two of them was just that of unfamiliar colleagues.

Play

Unmute

Then the filming started.

This scene is a confrontation between Jichen and the protagonist.

The classes of Ji Chen and Xiao Han had a basketball match. And this competition is also the first time that Ji Chen has shown malice toward Xiao Han.

When the filming started, the protagonist, Xiao Han, came out first, showing off his high spirits on the basketball court very beautifully in front of the camera.

It all changed when Ji Chen came on the pitch not long later.

The originally lively and noisy basketball game was the same as before, but some people on the court had just begun their fun.

When Xiao Han dribbled the ball at the beginning, Ji Chen stood not far away and didn’t make any movements.

Xiao Han is good at basketball, and with his good looks, he was outstanding on the court.

The mother who came to watch her son play was also very proud for a while.

Ji Chen turned his head slightly and looked in the direction of the woman with gloomy and indifferent eyes.

Just as Xiao Han was about to dunk the rebound, Ji Chen suddenly stepped forward and knocked Xiao Han to the ground.

Xiao Han fell to the ground; the referee immediately called a stop, but Ji Chen only said it was an accident.

At first, no one cared. After all, bumps and accidents are inevitable on the basketball court.

But then there was the second time, and the third…

Then Xiao Han became angry, “Are you doing it on purpose?!”

Ji Chen casually glanced at Xiao Han, and the next moment he punched Xiao Han on the cheek. Xiao Han fell to the ground in an instant, while Ji Chen showed a very nasty smile, “So you know.”

Many people watched this scene with fear, wondering when Ji Chen would go forward to attack Xiao Han; he seemed to resemble a thug, making people panic.

Lu Yuanbai led Shen Yuchi very well when he was acting, so he passed the scenes one by one.

Lu Yuanbai no longer has any work after filming today’s scene.

Then he said goodbye to the crew and planned to go back to the hotel.

Before leaving, the director said worriedly, “Don’t forget what I told you.”

Lu Yuanbai glanced at him and said lightly, “Got it.”

After Lin Mu and Duan Yu sat down in the car, Lu Yuanbai finally got in after talking with the director.

A few people drove back to the hotel, and as soon as they entered the door, they walked into the bathroom to take a shower.

Duan Yu turned on his laptop and quickly held an online meeting.

The affairs at work are already busy, but now that Duan Yu is not on the mainland, the work has become even more complicated.

“Mr. Duan, will you be able to return to the company in the near future?”

Duan Yu frowned slightly after hearing this.

The employee at the other end continued: “Mr. Duan, you are not in the company now, and many documents and orders to be issued cannot be delivered.”

In fact, what the employee said is correct. Duan Yu has always been a vital core figure of the company. However, Duan Yu has been away for nearly a month now, and this month is already the limit for a company without Duan Yu.

Duan Yu was silent for a long time after hearing this, and then he said in a cold voice, “I will find time to go back as soon as possible.”

The employees at the other end of the video conference were relieved when they heard that the boss had promised to come back as soon as possible.

Although they are usually very afraid of Duan Yu, when the man is not around for a while, it is like losing a direction mark and not knowing which direction to go.

After closing the computer, Duan Yu sat on the sofa for a long time.

But it is true, he is not an ordinary person, and the burden on his body is not easy to carry.

He has also been in this small countryside for more than a month, and it is time to go back.

It’s just…

Duan Yu raised his eyes and looked in the direction of the master bedroom. The people he cares about still have deviations in their feelings towards him.

However, just as Duan Yu was about to get up, the mobile phone rang again. Duan Yu thought it was something about work, as the call was connected.

“Hello, are you Lu Yuanbai’s family member?”

Duan Yu was slightly taken aback after hearing this. “Yes, I am his lover.”

“You are Mr. Duan. I don’t know if you are free now. We have a question about Mr. Lu and need to disturb you for a while.”

Duan Yu heard Lu Yuanbai’s name and then glanced at the master bedroom, “Please do.”

The person on the other end of the phone began to say, “Mr. Duan, hello. I am a psychiatrist in the hospital where Mr. Lu was staying.

Duan Yu frowned after hearing the word “psychiatrist.” “Did he see a doctor by himself?”

“Yes, Lu Yuanbai came to ask me to prescribe sleeping pills.”

Duan Yu asked again, and the person on the other end of the phone continued: “Mr. Lu has suffered from severe insomnia for four or five years.”

Duan Yu’s hand holding the phone froze for a moment. “Is he still suffering from insomnia?”

“Yes, and Mr. Lu has obviously been taking sleeping pills for a long time.” The doctor on the other end of the phone reminded him: “Although sleeping pills can have the effect of helping people fall asleep, they still have side effects on the body.”

“When Mr. Lu found me, the hospital did not agree to prescribe sleeping pills for Mr. Lu. After Mr. Lu was discharged from the hospital, did he take sleeping pills every night?”

Duan Yu lived in the master bedroom before Lu Yuanbai came back and did not find the sleeping pills, and Lu Yuanbai did not suffer from insomnia during the three months at home.

Since the doctor did not prescribe medicine for Lu Yuanbai, there should be no such medicines in the room now.

Duan Yu said, “It has not been found that he is taking medicine yet.”

As soon as he said this, the doctor on the other end of the phone was obviously relieved.

“It’s fine if you don’t have one.” The psychiatrist continued: “Mr. Lu doesn’t seem to have told others about the insomnia, but I think it’s better to let the family members of the patient know, because Mr. Lu also revealed that in the previous three months, his insomnia had been well relieved, and it only started again recently.”

Duan Yu thought about this sentence carefully and then said, “During the doctor’s visit, he said that he had not suffered from insomnia for the past three months.”

“That’s right, Mr. Lu told me that.”

Duan Yu looked at the master bedroom. Since Lu Yuanbai has no memory of the previous three months, why did he tell the psychiatrist that he had no insomnia in the previous three months?

After being silent for a while, Duan Yu opened his mouth: “Then have you diagnosed how his insomnia was caused?”

“Mr. The characteristic is that the heart is always full of vigilance and anxiety, which is usually caused by some major blows to the body.”

“But the specific reason is that Mr. Lu didn’t tell us what happened.”

Duan Yu remembered the doctor’s words in his mind.

“Mr. Duan can observe Mr. Lu’s sleeping situation in the near future. Is there anything around him that can put Mr. Lu to sleep and convince him to stop taking sleeping pills?

After all, Mr. Lu will inevitably become dependent on sleeping pills for a long time. Can you find something to replace sleeping?”

While speaking, he still did not forget to report to Duan Yu about Lu Yuanbai’s sleeping situation in the hospital before: “When Mr. Lu came to see me for a doctor, he had suffered from insomnia for four or five days.”

“Every night during the ward rounds, I also went to check on Mr. Lu’s sleeping condition and found that Mr. Lu’s sleep was quite normal, but every time he slept, he would hold something in his arms.”

Duan Yu: “What is it?”

Doctor: “Mr. Lu hugs a black coat to sleep every night. This dress seems to give Mr. Lu a large part of his sense of security.”

“Mr. Lu can’t sleep if he doesn’t hold this coat.”

Even washing clothes will not dry them quickly. Once Lu Yuanbai had washed the black coat by himself in the bathroom, he then hung it to dry on the drying rack outside the hospital building.

In the afternoon, it was taken away by the nurse along with the clothes of other patients.

After that, Lu Yuanbai went to the nurse’s station to ask, and he didn’t find it until midnight.

It was 11:20 in the middle of the night, and Lu Yuanbai fell asleep within ten minutes after carrying the coat back to the room.

Ten minutes later, the doctor came to check and found that Lu Yuanbai was sleeping very innocently while holding the coat.

Duan Yu: “A black coat?”

Doctor: “Yes, but that coat is much bigger than Mr. Lu’s, so when collecting the clothes before, the nurse took the coat as someone else’s.”

After hearing this, Duan Yu looked at the luggage that Lu Yuanbai had brought back from the hospital, which was placed on the living room floor. It was just a backpack, which contained the things Lu Yuanbai used in the hospital.

Then Duan Yu got up and took it. Although it is not good to casually look through your lover’s things, there is something in Duan Yu’s heart that he needs to understand.

Pulling open the backpack, Duan Yu’s black coat, which had been left in the hospital before, came into view.

Then he said in a deep voice, “There is a string of letters on the neckline of that coat.”

The psychiatrist heard this and hurriedly said, “Yes, it is the black coat, and there is one button missing on it.”

Back then, Lu Yuanbai had accidentally washed it off while washing clothes.

Duan Yu began to look through the clothes, and sure enough, a button was missing.

Duan Yu looked at the coat, and his heart beat faster.

Now that the details of the coat match up, it means that Lu Yuanbai would fall asleep hugging his clothes every night for a month after they had an argument in the hospital and broke up.

Now, whether Lu Yuanbai can remember those three months or not, the status of this coat clearly tells him that Lu Yuanbai has him in his heart and that Lu Yuanbai needs him.

Even though he showed resistance to him on the surface, Lu Yuanbai had a place in his heart.

Only by holding his clothes can he fall asleep with peace of mind. If someone else heard his lover do this, his heart would be throbbing.

When the doctor saw that there had been no answer for a long time, he asked, “Will Mr. Lu still sleep with this dress when you go back?”

Duan Yu looked at the clothes in his hand. It means that Lu Yuanbai didn’t sleep with it when he was sleeping last night.

“No.”

“Then may I ask if Mr. Lu slept last night?”

Duan Yu hesitated for a moment, a little uncertain.

The doctor also obviously thought of the result and continued: “Mr. Duan can observe Mr. Xia Lu’s sleep every night.”

Duan Yu: “Understood.”

Then the doctor explained some precautions and then hung up the phone.

However, after hanging up the phone, Duan Yu’s complexion gradually turned ugly.

One is because of Lu Yuanbai’s insomnia problem, which has lasted for five years.  What had happened to him before had caused him to be unable to sleep late at night for the next few years.

The second is that Lu Yuanbai may be lying to him, and the other party may remember everything that happened between the two of them in the past three months.

Although the second matter has yet to be decided, no matter what the result is, it will not make Duan Yu happy.

After all, forgetting and pretending to forget both elude him in the end.

When Lu Yuanbai came out of the bathroom, he saw Duan Yu sitting on the sofa in deep thought, and then what the director said to him flashed through his mind.

Rarely did he take the initiative to say, “You… Do you want to take a shower?”

Duan Yu raised his eyes upon hearing the sound and saw Lu Yuanbai, who was wearing short-sleeved shorts and wiping his hair.

The man’s eyes were dangerous; Lu Yuanbai wanted to take a few steps back when he saw them for a while, but he still restrained himself.

Lu Yuanbai: “Aren’t you going?”

Duan Yu stood up and approached the young man in front of him.

As soon as the man stepped forward, Lu Yuanbai inevitably backed up.

“You come with me.”

The man said indecent things with his expression still unreadable.

After Lu Yuanbai heard this, his peach eyes slightly opened. “What nonsense are you talking about again?!”

Duan Yu looked down at him. “You have been pestering me to wash with you for the past three months.”

Lu Yuanbai: “I don’t remember!”

Duan Yu looked at him dangerously. “How do you know if you don’t remember?”

Lu Yuanbai didn’t know how to answer for a moment.

In the next moment, Duan Yu continued: “We are still going to bathe in the same bathtub.”
