The sky is slightly brighter.
Shen Zhai.
Shen's mother always has a regular schedule and gets up early. The husband beside her was still asleep, and she didn't wake him up either, so she got up from the bed gently.
As the summer gradually entered, the sky was getting brighter and earlier. Perhaps because of getting older, I feel that it is getting shallower. Even the servant didn't even get up at this moment.
She went downstairs, preparing to make a cup of tea for herself. Just passing by the living room, Yu Guang saw a dark figure sitting on the sofa.
"Yeah!"
The woman was startled and couldn't help screaming.
Hearing the sound, the shadow didn't respond much. He just raised his head and glanced at this side, and then withdrew his gaze.
There is no light in the living room either. Although the sky was getting brighter now, the thick curtains were tightly pulled and hardly let in light.
So Mother Shen didn't recognize at first sight, this weird guy sitting in the living room turned out to be her own son.
After seeing the visitor, she breathed a sigh of relief and flattened her chest: "Why are you sitting here in the morning without making a sound."
Shen Chen did not speak.
Mother Shen approached, only to find that her son's expression was not right. His eyes were covered with red blood, and the eyes were blue, as if he hadn't slept all night.
Mother Shen sat down on the sofa and asked concerned: "What's wrong with you? Has anything happened?"
Shen Chen seemed to return to his senses, and raised his head slightly: "It's morning?"
Before he knew it, he sat all night.
After returning home last night, my mind has been blank. Don't want to think about anything, don't want to do anything. When I got to the living room, I sat down and didn't move anymore.
But there is still work today.
Shen Chen pulled on his tie and got up: "I'll change my clothes."
His voice was dumb, with a trace of fatigue.
But when she turned around, she heard her mother ask behind her, "What happened to you and Youyou?"
Shen Chen paused. Then he turned his head to look at his mother: "Why..."
He paused, "No, there is nothing."
Mother Shen smiled slightly: "You can lie to no one but your mother. Things at work can make you so upset?"
Shen Chen did not speak.
"You are old now, and I can't help you with other things." Mother Shen said, "but it's okay to listen to your grumbles. Some things are not easy to tell outsiders, so it doesn't matter to your mother."
Shen Chen: "..."
He really wants to find someone to talk to, and he wants others to show himself the right way. But as the president of the Shen Group, he does not have a friend who can be called a close friend.
And because of such trivial troubles, it really doesn't look like a president should behave.
"I……"
He frowned, "No, it's okay."
Mother Shen knows her son's character very well.
In fact, she sometimes wonders that she and his child's father are both extroverted and outspoken. How could he teach such a awkward child.
It seems that only a killer can be used.
Mother Shen: "It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it. Although your father and I like Youyou very much, it's your own business after all."
She shook her head: "Even if you turn against each other, you will never get along with each other. The relationship with us and Youyou will not affect you."
This is a bit too much.
When hearing the sentence behind, Shen Chen frowned.
Although there were indeed some conflicts and gaps in the relationship between the two sides, it didn't seem to have reached the point where...
He was a little uncertain: "Not at that level."
Mother Shen: "That's naturally the best."
She said, "Aren't you going to change clothes? Go ahead."
After hearing this, Shen Chen turned and left.
But after not taking a few steps, he suddenly stopped and looked at his mother. Unconsciously clenched his fists, he sat back on the sofa.
Not to that level, probably.
But he became uneasy.
Mother Shen neither urged nor said anything else, but looked at her son quietly.
Shen Chen lowered his head. After a moment of silence, he said, "I may have said something excessive."
He finally spoke.
However, there is still some resistance to expressing one's own mental journey, even if the other party is his own mother.
So at first only a few words were said.
Mother Shen had to take the initiative to ask until she understood the whole process.
Twenty minutes later.
Shen Chen: "...That's it."
At the very beginning, Mother Shen was able to look at her child with a gentle and encouraging look.
But the more I heard the back, the corners of my mouth fell down unconsciously. In the end, she lost her expression completely.
She wanted to take a sip of tea, but there was no water in the pot.
Therefore, she had to sigh.
It seems that she still underestimated her child.
The awkwardness of this man is far beyond imagination.
After saying this, Shen Chen looked at his mother.
It seemed that he was hoping that the other party would say something to tell him that things were not that bad.
Mother Shen naturally saw it. She couldn't bear to beat her son, but she felt that she should be made aware of reality.
"If this goes on," Mother Shen said, "I'm afraid you will really stay out of touch with each other."
When Shen Chen heard the words, the palms on his knees closed unconsciously: "Is it that bad?"
Mother Shen: "Do you remember those words you said."
Shen Chen nodded hesitantly.
——What do you think of me? Your emotional trash can?
——I am not obligated to listen to these words from you, let alone answer these questions.
Mother Shen solemnly said: "Hearing these words, what do you think Youyou would think?"
Shen Chen didn't answer immediately, and only said after a while: "He will be angry with me."
Mother Shen shook her head: "He apologized to you."
"He shouldn't be angry with you, he will only think you hate him."
Hearing this, Shen Chen looked up quickly.
Mother Shen: "Even if you don't say anything, your dad and I can guess what you are thinking. But others are different. Have you clearly told Youyou what you think."
Shen Chen was silent.
No, never.
Not only didn't, but also said sad words many times. Even if you regret afterwards, it won't help.
Shen Chen: "...what should I do now."
Mother Shen sighed unconsciously.
The son who is wise in the mall does not understand such a simple truth.
Do you still have to ask? Of course, I apologized in the past.
Although even if you apologize, you may not necessarily accept it; even if you accept, the relationship between the two parties may become awkward in the short term.
But in order not to hit her son, she did not say this. Just said: "You go to Youyou now and apologize to him. Then make everything clear."
Shen Chen pursed his mouth.
It's not that he has never had this idea, and he tried hard to do it last night. But in the end, he still didn't have the courage to say what was in his heart.
Mother Shen looked in her eyes and said, "If you still can't say it, just break the jar, treat this as your last meeting."
Shen Chen was startled.
Mother Shen: "The result is similar anyway, think about it yourself."
She didn't say any more, got up and walked to the kitchen, still muttering: "Go and make a cup of tea first, I'm thirsty."
Shen Chen silently watched his mother disappear, then lowered his head and looked at his palm.
See you for the last time.
If this time he is still the same as before, doing nothing and just waiting for Du You to find himself, I am afraid it will end in the same way.
Maybe, even the "last time we met" is gone.
Why can't I face Du You, and I can't speak to him.
Shen Chen understood it himself. He just didn't want to show his timidity.
He has always had many suitors. Those people were interested in his appearance or his family background.
Therefore, he always sneered at the so-called love, just immersed himself in work.
Since he has always been in a position of being pursued, he never thought that one day he would actually like others first.
So he didn't want to admit this feeling at first.
Later, even though I gradually accepted it in my heart, I still didn't want to show it out and be noticed by others.
Especially Du You.
But this mood is very contradictory.
On the one hand, he hopes that the other party can detect his feelings and respond to him; on the other hand, he does not want this ugly idea to be exposed.
Because in his concept, once one of the two parties is in unrequited love, then this person will fall into a weak position.
For Shen Chen, who has been in a dominant relationship since childhood, he felt uncomfortable and unacceptable.
Shen Chen just sat in the living room for a while, until the minute hand passed one circle and another circle.
He stood up.
Mother Shen happened to have finished making tea and was bringing it to the living room. Go to see my son pass by myself.
She asked aloud: "Where are you going?"
Shen Chen replied: "Go to the company."
Mother Shen sighed. I heard the following sentence from my son:
"Before that, go to Du You first."
When Du You awoke from that too real dream, it was already morning.
He sat up, still a little confused. The quilt slipped off the body.
After a while, he said: "System."
The system immediately replied: "Don't doubt it. Although you were dreaming just now, the content in the dream is absolutely true!"
Du You stopped talking.
When I got out of bed and opened the door, I saw a white shadow rushing over.
Same as every morning in the past. As long as Ryan was at home, he would rush over to greet him like this every time.
"Morning, wife!"
Ryan was touched on his head last night, so he slept well. Even the eyes are brighter.
Du You: "Morning." He paused and asked, "Is the aunt here."
Ryan nodded: "Come on."
He added, "Don't worry, I have become a dog obediently."
Du You is not worried about this. It has been months since Ryan lived in his own home, and the other party has never been exposed.
It's just that the next thing needs to be responded to, so he can't be turned into a beast.
Du You turned sideways: "Come in."
Ryan didn't ask much, and immediately walked in. Then, I heard the door closing behind me.
Ryan tilted his head, puzzled.
Du You turned around and said, "I have something to tell you."
He didn't circumspect, straight to the point. I told him all the things the system told him last night.
Not sure if Ryan can understand. Save the details and emphasize the most critical things. Then, come to the conclusion.
Du You: "It will be dangerous to stay in this world, so you must go back to the tribe."
Ryan's ears stood up: "Back to the tribe!"
Of course he wants to go back. As the leader of the clan, missing for so long, the entire clan must have been in chaos.
He leaned over and held Du You's hand: "Go back with me!"
At that time, he will introduce this powerful and beautiful human to the whole race.
Is it human?
He is not sure, it doesn't matter if it is not. In short, he wants Du You to be his wife, give birth to a lot of babies, and manage the people with him.
Du You shook his head: "No."
He needs to return to his world.
"Why, don't you want to live with me?" Ryan was just excited, but after being rejected by Du You, the whole person became wilted again.
Du You did not speak.
It may not be bad to live with Ryan, but he doesn't want to be the other's wife.
"Or, you hate my world?"
Ryan said eagerly, "You will like it there."
There are no high-rise buildings, reinforced concrete, and no exhaust fumes or smoke from cars.
There are ancient woods everywhere, and the blue sky is endless. And almost every night, you can see the beautiful crescent moon.
There was a spring deep in the forest, and clear water gurgled out. Converge into a river and nourish the earth. Unpolluted, clear and clear.
Galloping in the forest, if you are tired, you have water to drink at any time. When you are hungry, you can pick fruit anytime.
Although there are dangers hidden deep in the forest, males will protect females. Only males will dive deep to hunt.
Ryan: "I will make you happy, please come back with me."
Blue sky, forest, river.
In the last days, this was Du You's most intuitive impression of the outside world, and what he wanted to see most.
Although, he did not see the scenery he imagined in the last days.
Du You: "If I have a chance, I hope I can visit your hometown."
He shifted his gaze down, glanced at the ground, and looked at Ryan again, "But, I can't be your daughter-in-law."
Ryan is a good person and it will be easy to stay with him. However, Du You doesn't have that sensibility for Ryan.
Du You added: "Besides, I can't have children."
Ryan seemed to be thinking about something.
In orc tribes, it is normal for females to give birth to cubs.
This not only means that the child is the crystallization between the two, but also because of the importance of reproduction.
They must ensure that their race can survive in this seemingly beautiful but dangerous world.
The same is true for Ryan. What's more, as a leader of a clan, he has the need and obligation to set an example and have his own children.
This is an explanation of everything.
After the leader's child is born, there is a great chance of becoming the next leader. And if it continues, becoming stronger and stronger will also allow the tribe to develop further.
Therefore, in Ryan's perception, there is no such option as "no child" at all.
He can only accommodate in other ways.
"If you really don't want to give birth..." Ryan stammered, "I, I will ask the wizards in the clan whether males can take that medicine."
This approach is undoubtedly a huge impact on the worldly concepts of the orcs.
Ryan blushed: "I can give birth. I want to have a baby with you."
Du You felt his hand gripped tighter and tighter. The opponent's body temperature was originally high, but now somehow, the temperature rises sharply, as if it has become a stove.
He thought for a while and felt that the other party seemed to have misunderstood something.
"I am not going back with you because of this problem."
Ryan didn't understand: "What's that? Or do you hate me?"
Because I don't like you.
Du You originally wanted to answer that.
And he has always been very straightforward.
But at this time, I don't know why, I can't say those words.
Ryan's hands were a little tight. Du You pulled his hand out, and after a while, raised his hand to touch the opponent's head.
Ryan reacted quickly and immediately turned the top of his head, rubbing Du You's palm harder.
Du You's fingers occasionally scratched those hairy ears. Although the white wolf's hair is long and soft.
But compared to other parts, the hair on this part of the ear is a bit shorter, and you can feel the slightly hard and hot ears under the hair.
Du You: "Do you hate people in your tribe."
Ryan was taken aback and looked up. I don't understand why this question is asked.
How could he hate his family.
Du You: "You don't hate them, you just like them?"
Ryan nodded sharply.
Du You: "If you like, you can have children with them?"
Ryan imagined the scene for a moment, and felt very scary.
Du You put his hand down: "I don't hate you, but I don't want to be your wife."
The antonym of hate is not "like". Between that span, there are more complex emotions.
This time, even Ryan understood.
If he said last night, he was still excited that his wife took the initiative to touch him. So now, I feel like a roller coaster ride. As soon as I reached the top of the mountain, I fell to the bottom.
The daughter-in-law refused very clearly.
I don't hate him, but I definitely don't like "willing to have children with him".
Ryan's tail drooped, shaking slightly behind him. Occasionally, he would "slap" and photograph his calf.
He did not speak, as if thinking. After a while, he said, "How long will it take?"
Du You: "What.?
Ryan: "Although you will continue to stay, you may die, but not now, right."
The lost expression on his face was swept away, and the cheerful smile was restored again: "Then, until the deadline, I will stay by your side."
Du You: "..."
Du You: "Good."
He paused, then said: "But before that, you must leave."
Because he didn't want to see anyone die.
Even for the "person who set this ending", that does not mean death.
But he was forced to share his body with others, merge with his thoughts, and become an independent individual.
Such a person, even standing in front of Du You. Du You would not think that the other party was Ryan.
By then, Ryan, who was an orc, was already "dead".
Ryan: "I know!"
There is still some time.
This is not only the last time with his wife, but also his last chance.
After all, the orcs never give up. Until the last moment, he will not give up the possibility of taking away his wife.
On the first floor, the aunt is standing in the kitchen, starting her work today.
Just cut the vegetables and put them in the pot, raised his head, but saw a figure swaying outside.
This is not surprising.
Even though the villa area is quiet, it is not always without people. Now it's daytime, even if there are pedestrians walking by the side of the road, it is normal.
But the problem is, this is the fifth time she has seen the same figure. The man first went from left to right. Then go from right to left.
Back and forth countless times.
This is because she was cutting vegetables and didn't always look up. The time that the man wandered in place might be longer than she saw.
In order to protect the sex, a few green plants were planted within a short distance from the window, layer upon layer. Therefore, he can only vaguely see the silhouette of the person, and cannot see his face clearly.
Auntie suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a similar situation before.
Someone has been hanging around at the door, but he just doesn't come in or leave.
Could it be that this person also came to Mr. Du this time?
The aunt thought so, washed her hands and walked out of the kitchen. She raised her head and looked upstairs. The husband hasn't come down yet, he is probably still sleeping.
Don't bother rashly.
So this time she didn't inform in advance, instead she opened the door and went out by herself.
A car parked a few meters away. And the figure I saw in the kitchen just now happened to bypass the car and walked here.
It was a man in a suit. He has a handsome face and profound features, but his expression is exhausted.
Look at temperament like Mr. Du's client or colleague.
Because she didn't seem to be a bad person, the aunt took the initiative to say hello.
"Good morning, did you come to see Mr. Du."
The man stopped suddenly.
He looked at the woman and nodded stiffly. Then he coughed slightly and his expression returned to normal.
Shen Chen: "Excuse me, is he still sleeping?"
Auntie: "It seems to be still sleeping. Are you a friend of your husband? Come in and wait."
Shen Chen was silent for a while: "It's okay, I'll come back later."
The auntie didn't wait to stay, when she saw that the person got into the car and left, she couldn't help feeling a little strange.
Now that you know your husband's name, it should be someone you know. Why can't you come in chaotically outside, and just leave after talking to yourself?
There was a boiling sound in the kitchen and the water boiled. The aunt didn't think too much, closed the door and prepared to go back to the kitchen.
At this moment, I just saw Du You come down, still following the pet dog at his feet.
The aunt said enthusiastically: "Sir, good morning."
Du You: "Morning."
The aunt immediately sold Shen Chen: "A strange person came outside just now."
Du You: "?"
Auntie: "Standing outside all the time. I thought it was a friend of my husband, and wanted to ask him to come in and wait, but he left immediately."
Du You: "Who is it."
The aunt didn't know the name of the person, so she shook her head: "It feels suspicious. Although looking at the talents, but now liar will dress up. Sir, you have to be careful."
Du You listened to the woman's words, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, and glanced out through the window.
But at this time, there was no one outside. Only the lush green leaves swayed gently in the wind.
Shen Chen drove the car out of the villa area. It didn't take long before the red light came in front. He stepped on the brake and stopped the car.
Fingers gripped the steering wheel tightly, and his eyes fell to the paper bag aside.
There are snacks inside.
When Du You came to the hospital to visit him, he always brought these kinds of desserts.
It can't be called an apology, he just wants to buy something Du You might like to ease the atmosphere.
However, although it came early in the morning, it could not be sent out.
When he first walked out of the house, his mood was still firm. But the closer to Du You's house, the more cowardly he became.
The longer he hesitated outside the door, the more his original firm belief was shaken. Until the woman spoke up and asked him to enter the house.
For some reason, when he saw the open door and thought that Du You was inside, he started to feel scared again. So he left there as if he fled.
"..."
Shen Chen banged his forehead against the steering wheel and closed his eyes.
Du You didn't take what the aunt said to his heart, and came to the company after breakfast.
The day passed quickly, and when he raised his head, the sky outside was already dark. Since the lights are always on in the company, it becomes very slow to changes in the external environment.
Du You got up.
Ryan's side has been resolved, and then he still needs to tell Qin Ge and You Haoyu the matter.
Shen Chen should be fine. Because the other party only needs to stay in this world.
Qin Ge should come to the company today.
Du You picked up the landline on the desk, and just about to make a call, the phone rang first. The screen lights up with a short message on it.
Shen Chen: [I am outside the company. 】
Shen Chen: [Can you come down? 】
