Like you in the sun

Jinghai and Kyoto are far apart, thousands of miles away, but such a distance cannot stop the two hearts full of longing for each other.

Waves of warmth lingered in Li Xiang's heart, and busy work could hardly serve as an outlet for his longing.

Colleagues in the traffic police team all thought that Li Xiang’s girlfriend was Zhang Yan, because they saw her standing at the door waiting for Li Xiang every day after get off work.

Li Xiang disdained to explain these unimportant matters to his colleagues and never took them to heart from beginning to end.

The more this indifferent attitude appeared, the more frightened Nan Ji felt.

After learning from An Xin that Zhang Yan was not Li Xiang’s girlfriend, he felt relieved and completely released his secret love for her.

I tried to find various reasons and excuses to contact Li Xiang frequently, but I never got a response.

But most men would not be able to withstand Zhang Yan's relentless pursuit.

When it was almost time to get off work, Nan Ji came to Li Xiang's office and asked, "Brother Xiang, let's have dinner together tonight."

Li Xiang replied: "Maybe some other time."

Nan Ji asked, "Brother Xiang, are you two together?"

Li Xiang naturally knew who Nan Ji was referring to, and replied directly: "No."

Nan Ji couldn't help but smile and continued to ask, "Brother Xiang, I'm inviting you to dinner today because I need your help with something."

"It's not far away, just a hotel near the traffic police station."

Li Xiang: "Okay."

When they arrived at the entrance of the hotel, Nan Ji came up to them and said, "Brother Xiang, let's go."

The private room is located at the end of the corridor. It is not very wide, but a little small, but it is also quiet. The pale yellow light is like soft sunlight, shining in every corner of the room.

Nan Ji asked, "Brother Xiang, why do you eat so little?"

Li Xiang: "I'm not very hungry."

Ever since I came back from Kyoto this time, the feeling of missing you has become stronger.

The sweet voices of "Brother Guanying~Brother Guanying~" always echoed in his ears. The intimate scene between Lin Fanyin and that man hurt Li Xiang's heart all the time.

The little girl, who was already fragile at heart, had never liked contact with strangers, let alone physical contact of that level of intimacy.

Is she dependent on him?

Li Xiang's heart twitched suddenly, very clearly.

I chose to break up because I thought there was only one way back, but now I am still alive! How can I bear to leave the girl I love?

This kind of separation is a thousand times more painful than separation by death!

Li Xiang was deeply melancholy, and although it never showed on the surface, his eyes were filled with sorrow.

Such a melancholy temperament hidden under Li Xiang's handsome appearance made Nan Ji even more fascinated and wanted to get closer to him and possess him.

It is better to take the initiative than to just be attracted to it, but he is worried that it would be too abrupt and would startle Li Xiang and be counterproductive.

Nan Ji asked, "Brother Xiang, are you worried about something?"

Li Xiang: “No.”

Nan Ji: "Brother Xiang, what do you think of me?"

Li Xiang stopped eating and replied after a moment: "Very good, young, energetic and hardworking. The traffic police team needs talents like you."

Nan Ji: "Brother Xiang, what else?"

After a pause, he asked, "I am still in the probationary period. I may apply for transfer to Jinhai City before becoming a regular employee."

"Now I'm at a loss as to which city to choose, between Jinghai City and Jinhai City."

"My parents hope that I can be transferred back to Jinhai City because my family is in Jinhai. But I like Jinghai more."

"Because there is someone I like in Jinghai, but I don't know if the person I like will like me!"

"Brother Xiang, if I leave, will you remember me?"

Li Xiang didn't react and replied, "You have to make your own choice for this matter. After becoming a formal traffic policeman, it will be difficult to transfer jobs."

Li Xiang simply chose to ignore other questions.

Between adults, not responding is the most direct response. It is an attitude and also an answer.

Nan Ji was not disappointed but felt a little lost when he thought that Li Xiang would give such an answer.

After the meal, Li Xiang paid the bill at the cashier.

Nan Ji: "Brother Xiang, how can I let you pay the bill? I was asking for your help."

"Then I'll treat you tomorrow night."

Li Xiang: "We are all colleagues, there is no need to be so fussy."

The two walked out of the hotel, and Nan Ji waved his hand and said, "Brother Xiang, see you tomorrow."

Li Xiang: "Let me take you back first."

Considering that it was too late and it was difficult to get a taxi on this road, and the two of them were colleagues, they both had the responsibility to ensure that Nan Ji got home safely.

Nan Ji was a little surprised. He didn't expect Li Xiang to offer to take him home. His face was instantly filled with joy. He asked, "Take me home? You mean, take me home?"

Li Xiang: “Yeah.”

The night in Jinghai is just the right temperature in this late autumn season. The gentle breeze is like soft silk, delicately brushing across the face, bringing a pleasant comfort.

Li Xiang felt the gentleness of the evening breeze, but the bitterness in his heart seemed to have not diminished in the slightest, like a pool of stirred water that could not return to calm.

In the past, after get off work, I always couldn't wait to see Lin Fanyin, eat with her, take a walk with her, play with her, and enjoy each other's company.

Every time he sent Lin Fanyin to the door of the villa, he would hug her tightly, with deep attachment and reluctance in his eyes, so affectionate.

Every time, he would have to coax her for a while before Lin Fanyin would slowly let go, tightly hold his hand, and reluctantly turn back to the villa.

When you recall the time when you were in love and together, that warm and sweet feeling will linger in your heart and will be hard to dissipate for a long time.

Nan Ji, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked at Li Xiang's profile under the dim light. The sculptured outline was more distinct against the light and shadow, and the charm he exuded was even greater.

Nan Ji looked at Li Xiang quietly, her eyes full of tenderness and obsession, as if she wanted to engrave him deeply in her heart. She stared at every detail, from his deep and bright eyes to his slightly upturned mouth corners, and every detail made her heart beat fast.

Nan Ji felt a strong urge to hug Li Xiang, kiss him, and express his deepest feelings.

This thought was so strong that Nan Ji's body unconsciously leaned towards Li Xiang.

The moment Li Xiang turned his head, Nan Ji's heart beat faster.

Li Xiang asked, "What's wrong?"

Nan Ji paused and asked, "Brother Xiang, you have been silent all the way. What are you thinking about?"

The corners of Li Xiang's mouth curled up slightly, his smile was as bright as the warm spring sun, his eyes sparkled with deep love for Lin Fanyin, and endless longing.

Nan Ji: "Brother Xiang, when you smile, you are so handsome and charming."

Li Xiang replied in surprise: "Really?"
