The old-fashioned street lights were dim. Small posters for certificate engravings, locksmiths, and Chinese medicine were pasted around metal pillars, the papers yellowing due to being exposed to the elements. On a dusty-gray concrete wall, the 'Harmonious Neighborhood' poster no longer stuck properly and was being whipped around by the wind.
Entering from a low gate, there was a narrow alley and a staircase with green painted railings that were almost falling off. A sound-activated light was triggered and lit up with a yellow-orange glow.
Chu Yu was confused and scanned his surroundings with half-opened eyes. He asked with a soft voice, "Where are we going?"
"My place."
They stopped in front of a door. Lu Shi held him in his arms with one hand while unlocking the door with the key in the other.
Chu Yu's brain turned slowly for he'd just sucked blood and his whole body was weak. It wasn't until he heard the bang of the door closing that he realized he'd arrived at Lu Shi's home.
The lights turned on.
It was neat, clean, and empty.
Chu Yu looked at the indoor furnishings, feeling a little cold.
Apart from necessary furniture, there were no other decorations in the house.
In the narrow living room, the walls were whitewashed, and there was just a wooden table and a two-seat sofa— it was spotless. The bedroom door was open, and through it he could see numerous stacks of exercise books and study materials on top of an old-fashioned desk.
Chu Yu wasn't someone who restrained himself from living life pleasurably. He was accustomed to decorating the place where he lived exquisitely, warmly, and comfortably. Carpets would cover the floors and beautiful paintings must be hung on the white walls. There were not only books on the shelves, but also all kinds of ornaments and gadgets. As for his desk, lots of small things would be scattered around. Finally, green plants would always be incorporated into the room to add life and greenery.
Sitting on the sofa, Chu Yu held a glass of water given to him by Lu Shi. Suddenly, there was an existence like Lu Shi's who practically silenced every feeling of indulging in the enjoyment of material desire.
Just like an ascetic monk, abandoning everything around oneself that might shake the mind.
He remembered that Zhu Zhifei once mentioned that Lu Shi had moved to Qingchuan Road by himself during summer vacation more than a year ago.
And this place was his mother's house.
"Chu Yu."
Chu Yu raised his head and replied without thinking, "Here."
A smile appeared in Lu Shi's eyes.
"You sit here and finish drinking the water, I'll go take a shower."
Chu Yu held the glass of water and nodded. "Okay."
After Lu Shi finished speaking, he turned and walked to the bathroom.
While walking, he crossed his arms, pulled the fabric of his black t-shirt up, and took it off.
His figure was slim, but after removing his top, one could see tight muscles with extremely defined lines. His black trousers wrapped around his long legs while the waistband hugged his strong yet thin waist and set off his cold white complexion, making it very eye-catching.
Chu Yu couldn't look away.
He even forgot to drink the water.
As if knowing Chu Yu was watching him, Lu Shi inclined his body to the side. "How long do you intend to watch?" The ending tone rose slightly, carrying a hint of ambiguity.
