05.

The emotion shown in the eyes of the man in the portrait was ice-cold, the corner of his stiffened mouth curled into a strange arc like a smile yet not a smile, as if he was mocking.

.

"Don't look at me like that," said Li Yu, staggered as he walked to the portrait, he stood silently for a moment, then suddenly raised his hand to covered the eyes of the man in the portrait, and muttered, "A Mu......don't be like this, it was you who lied to me first......I just took it seriously."

He couldn't stop the corner of the mouth that was still fully curled with malice, what responded to Li Yu was silent. As if he had been burned, Li Yu pulled back his hand.

That was right, this wasn't Zhao Mu, it won't listen to what you said.

.

The next day, Li Yu took the old photo of the ancient town to the photo studio.

He was in a little panic, he insisted on enlarging a very small photograph to the size of half of a person's height, forcing the owner of the photo studio to directly shook his head, "Brother, it's really impossible, enlarging it that big will make the photo become blurry."

Li Yu's eyes were bloodshot, he said in a hoarse voice: "I just wanted to keep a piece of memory......can you reproduce it for me......I'll give you money. How much is it?"

Li Yu said then fished out money from his pocket, but the boss grabbed him by the arm and secretly wiped his sweat, "It's not about the money.....I also don't understand you, youngster, you guys at that time all said it doesn't matter, but when the reproduction came out you then all dislike it being blurry, it's troublesome to death......*Sigh*, I didn't mean you are such a person, brother, I'm just afraid you will regret it!"

The boss spoke sincerely, he patted Li Yu on the shoulders and blinked his two small eyes so fast that it squeezed together, but Li Yu stared blankly and shook his head slowly.

"Help me......" He said in a low voice, "Boss, I will pay first, I will not dislike it."

.

Li Yu stubbornly wanted to enlarge it, the reproduction of the photo that came out was indeed blurry, the boss mumbled to himself, "I already said it will not be clear......" but he still took the money and said, "Would you like to buy a photo frame? With that, the photo will not be damaged easily."

.

The photo frame naturally was bought.

.

Li Yu hugged the photo home as if he was hugging a treasure, he put the photo of the deceased in the cabinet and placed the reproduced on the bedside.

"I can then see you when I open my eyes." His lip curled as he gently touched the photo frame, "You, smiling at me."

The young man in the photo didn't speak, his brows and eyes were curved.

Li Yu also smiled and lay back in bed, "Good night, A Mu."

Actually, now it still wasn't yet time to go to bed, it was dawn, the sun was hung high, but Li Yu wanted to sleep, he felt he should go to sleep, he should go see Zhao Mu.

Maybe he will dream of hugging Zhao Mu, maybe he will dream of them going on a date, maybe he will dream of them kissing, maybe they will make love, maybe.......Zhao Mu will press him down, fiercely kiss every inch of him with his red lips and tongues, his mouth gently, and softly says what seems to be sincere love words.
