Chi Qiu couldn’t sit still; he quietly leaned towards Lu Ming and rested his head on his arm.

Lu Ming didn’t push Chi Qiu away, the ambiguous atmosphere was covered and revealed by countless notes.

Chi Qiu rarely saw such an active Lu Ming. Before the concert was over, Chi Qiu’s mind had already flown several kilometers away and landed in the hotel’s two-person bathtub. Chi Qiu understood that the most intoxicating thing for him was the time he spent alone with Lu Ming and the whispers Lu Ming whispered in his ear.

He told himself that it was not greedy; they were partners, as they should be.

The concert became difficult, and Chi Qiu stuck to Lu Ming tightly, unable to indulge in the world of music anymore. Worried that he was acting too strangely, he made a point of peeking forward and found several couples sitting sporadically in front of him.

Each pair was sitting as intimately as they were, sitting close to each other.

For people who were in love with each other, this was not strange, and no one would find them strange.

In an instant, Chi Qiu’s shyness was relaxed. He no longer dwelled on his behavior, instead he closed his eyes comfortably and stopped wasting this concert that Lu Ming had chosen for him.

Time passed minute by minute, and along with the sparse applause, the performer got up together and bowed before leaving the stage.

The two-hour concert finally came to an end. In the auditorium, Chi Qiu dizzily got up, almost forgetting the rose next to him. He and Lu Ming walked to the front door and turned back to get it again.

Also returning back at the same time were a mother and son.

The eight-year-old child had left his hat on the seat. The seemingly gentle mother turned around and pushed the child’s back. The strength was not hard, but it made Lu Ming feel like stepping into a minefield. He was very disgusted and averted his eyes.

He picked up the large bouquet of roses on the seat and put one hand on Chi Qiu’s shoulder: “Let’s go.”

Chi Qiu looked at Lu Ming who did not say a word and also had a sullen face. Thinking that Lu Ming did not like the concert and felt bored, he hurriedly followed Lu Ming’s steps.

Speaking of which, the reason why Chi Qiu liked to listen to concerts was because of Chi Lanyan.

When he first lost his sight, Chi Qiu was not interested in anything. But in order to keep the family from worrying or arguing, he always forced himself to do something positive and optimistic. Over time, Chi Qiu’s exhaustion became heavier and heavier.

Chi Lanyan racked her brains to enlighten him, and under the advice of a psychiatrist, Chi Lanyan tried to buy a ticket for a piano concert and took him to adjust his mood.

When a note fell into the darkness, the whole world seemed to become brighter, and Chi Qiu’s heart was relaxed for a moment. From then on, Chi Qiu took the concert as a psychological adjustment, and also made it a regular habit.

However, he didn’t want to turn his habit into a burden to others.

Chi Qiu said apologetically, “Is it too boring? Actually, you don’t have to come with me. If my mom is free in the future, she will accompany me to listen to it.” To avoid misunderstanding, Chi Qiu explained, “My mother likes concerts very much, she and I used to go to them together.”

Lu Ming replied succinctly, “I’m not bored, just a little tired.”

Behind them, the mother and child followed them down the long hallway and out the door. The child sobbed as he grabbed his lost and found hat and cried for chocolate.

His mother yanked his hand, and a disturbing voice pierced into Lu Ming’s ears: “Don’t cry! I have to take you with me to a concert, I’m exhausted. How many cavities do you have? I told you not to eat, you are not allowed to eat. Crying, crying, crying, you only know how to cry, not good at all. You’re just like your father, you don’t understand me……”

Lu Ming’s frown deepened. He quickened his pace.

Chi Qiu was at a loss for words and had to follow him as he walked up at a brisk pace.

However, at the same time as they left at a brisk pace, the dilapidated wooden ceiling emitted a creaking sound, causing the four to stop and look upwards.

The next second, with a scream, a huge ceiling lamp fell, smashing most of the narrow hallway directly.

Lu Ming subconsciously protected Chi Qiu and fell forward. Immediately, there was dust everywhere, and there was a constant sound of things breaking.

Chi Qiu was knocked over. He opened his mouth and choked on the dust. He covered his mouth and coughed uncomfortably.

“Chi Qiu?!”

Lu Ming’s voice had a huge rise and fall for the first time.

The air emits a faint smell of blood, mixed with the surrounding broken wood and steel. The theater at night was like a fully enclosed cellar, there was no light at all, and even a breath was with a heavy, damp old smell.

Chi Qiu’s arm was cut open by something; the wound was not deep, but it started to sting after being numb. In a panic, he opened his eyes, and it was pitch black, just like the day he woke up after losing his sight.

The same pain was accompanied by endless loneliness. He opened his mouth mumblingly, fear spreading silently in his heart, puncturing every blood vessel like a needle, causing it to lose temperature continuously.

Suddenly, a muffled grunt broke into his dull world.

A child suddenly cried loudly around him, and the child’s mother fumbled to turn on the phone’s light. Obviously he only briefly lost a few seconds of light, but Chi Qiu felt like he had spent a century as long.

He finally saw the scene in front of him.

Lu Ming blocked him, his back was smashed by something, and he braced himself above Chi Qiu with his teeth clenched: “Are you alright?”

Chi Qiu was stunned and shook his head vigorously. After making sure that Chi Qiu was safe, Lu Ming let go of all his strength and collapsed directly on top of Chi Qiu.

“Lu Ming?” Chi Qiu propped himself up with his arms and the wound hurting like a tear. He didn’t have time to take a look at his wound, and anxiously helped Lu Ming up, his fingers were slightly numb: “Lu Ming… What’s wrong with you? Don’t scare me.”

Lu Ming did not respond to him.

Chi Qiu shivered and touched Lu Ming’s back again and again, not daring to use force, let alone make a sound.

After a long while, Lu Ming closed his eyes: “I’m fine.”

Outside, a bunch of people gathered in a commotion. Listening to the voice, it should be the staff of the theater. Because the collapse was too large and the situation was tragic, the trapped people could not be rescued by the staff alone.

In the dim light, Chi Qiu heard the woman holding the child kept talking to the staff outside——

“Yes, there are four of us here!”

“Can you guys hurry up, my son’s leg is bleeding!!”

“You guys hurry up and get us out of here, won’t it be too late to wait for the rescuers to come?! You guys hurry up and do something, my son’s leg is injured——”

The woman was accusing the child of being ignorant one moment, and this moment she broke down and hugged the injured child, whimpering. It could be heard that her whole body was trembling, and she kept using the first aid measures she could think of to temporarily bandage the child’s wound to stop the bleeding.

She held the child in her arms and apologized to him over and over again. “It’s mom’s fault, don’t cry, it’s all mom’s fault for asking you to come to the concert with me, it’s mom’s fault for being too willful…”

The child was in too much pain to hear any words, bawling and crying, his mouth shouting, “Mom, Mom——I’m in so much pain.”

The sharp cries kept pouring into Lu Ming’s ears, stimulating his nerves, and he once again smelled the smell of blood mixed in the damp.

Lu Ming turned sideways in disgust, involuntarily pushing Chi Qiu away. He gritted his teeth and leaned against an intact wall. A fine cold sweat seeping out of his forehead. His back was so painful that he couldn’t feel it, he couldn’t open his eyes, and his whole body was shivering with cold.

“Lu Ming, Lu Ming you don’t scare me…”

No matter how Chi Qiu called him, he was indifferent.

Chi Qiu panicked, he moved closer to hug Lu Ming, tears uncontrollably slipped from the corner of his eyes and dripped on Lu Ming’s neck. Lu Ming moved his eyebrows and responded with a painful whisper from his throat, proving he was fine.

Chi Qiu wanted to take out his mobile phone from his pocket and turn on a light, but found that his mobile phone had dropped somewhere. He had to touch Lu Ming’s pocket, and finally took out Lu Ming’s mobile phone. He turned on the light and put it in front of the two of them.

At the same time, Chi Qiu saw that the wound on his arm had stained the clothes on his body red. He did not care about anything and continued to take care of Lu Ming, who was in a more serious condition.

Chi Qiu bit his lower lip. His sob was so small that it seemed insignificant in the child’s cry.

Lu Ming closed his eyes tightly, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his throat seemed to be filled with lead, and it was difficult to speak. His consciousness gradually began to blur, and when he was finally able to open his eyes, he saw Chi Qiu with tears on his face.

Those tears kept falling down Chi Qiu’s chin, just like Lu Ming when he was a child.

It was also in such a dark room, also in such great pain, and also in the same heartbreaking cries——his mother, Lu You, grabbed his hair, pinned him to the floor and kept slapping him.
