Beijing and Hong Kong kiss

The small courtyard is not very big, and it hasn’t been as lively as it is today for many years.

With the help of Uncle Zhou, Ms. Su cleaned up a guest room as quickly as possible.

Lin You lived with Ms. Su, Uncle Zhou went back to his own home after cleaning up, and Cheng Hao and Shi Jingyuan lived in the same room.

Lin You spread the quilt on the bed, turned around and looked at the two tall men standing by the door, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"You two...are you sure you can squeeze in here tonight?"

Especially Shi Jingyuan, he probably has never slept in the same bed with another man in his life.

Shi Jingyuan held a cigarette in his hand but didn't smoke it. He glanced at Cheng Hao sharply and said to Lin You with a smile, "I'm fine."

Ms. Su called Xiao Cheng "Xiao Cheng" so affectionately and asked Xiao Cheng to stay here instead of going to a hotel.

Of course he refused, saying it was difficult to contact the hotel so late at night and he had to squeeze in here for the night.

Cheng Hao was calm and composed. "If Mr. Shi has no problem, then I have no problem too."

Lin You twitched his lips and said, "Okay, then you guys should go to bed early."

She didn't expect that Cheng Hao and Shi Jingyuan actually knew each other, but they just said hello and it was hard to tell how deep their relationship was.

It is indeed very late now, and these unimportant things can only be discussed in detail later.

After Lin You left and the door closed, fierce hostility broke out between the two men.

Shi Jingyuan lit a cigarette, took a puff, and said with a smile, "I remember Mr. Cheng doesn't smoke, so I won't smoke for you. By the way, Mr. Cheng doesn't mind me smoking, right?"

You've already smoked, and now you're asking him?

Cheng Hao shrugged, with a forced smile, "I don't mind. Please feel free to do as you please."

Shi Jingyuan finished his cigarette and asked in a deep voice, "Can I ask Mr. Cheng a question?"

Cheng Hao made a gesture of invitation.

Shi Jingyuan: "I remember Xiaoyou had a fake boyfriend for a while. Was it Mr. Cheng?"

Cheng Hao smiled faintly, "Yes."

For a long moment, neither of the two men spoke.

They are all old foxes in the business world. Some issues are better to be addressed briefly and there is no point in saying more.

After a long time, Shi Jingyuan got up and went out. "Mr. Cheng, please take a rest first. I'm going to go out and get some fresh air."

Cheng Hao nodded in response, his eyes fixed on his back, the smile on his face eventually completely gone.

He remembered the story Aunt Su told him in the cemetery, and when he listened to how Lin You and Chen Lang met and got to know each other, he understood.

He and Lin You have no chance.

The door closed, blocking Cheng Hao's sight. His eyes darkened and he took out his cell phone to modify Lin You's note.

Changed from nickname to name.

From then on, he and Lin You could only be friends.

*

Half of the Su family's courtyard is planted with flowers and the other half is planted with vegetables.

In Licheng, once people get older, they will inevitably open up a vegetable patch in the garden. This is the respect for food that is ingrained in the Chinese people.

Shi Jingyuan stood in front of the vegetable patch, looking at the vegetable leaves that seemed a little unfamiliar to him, his thoughts gradually drifting away.

The person behind me gradually approached, casting a swaying shadow in the sporadic light.

Shi Jingyuan came back to his senses, and after seeing who was coming, a smile appeared on his face.

"I knew you would come out."

Shi Jingyuan said this, took a step forward and pulled the person into his arms.

Lin You hesitated for a moment, then raised her arms and hugged his waist.

The warm embrace protects against the cool evening breeze.

The two of them leaned against each other until they calmed down. Then Shi Jingyuan held Lin You's face and said softly:

"Now, can you answer my question?"

problem……

Lin You lowered his head and said nothing.

She knew he was asking the same question he had asked last in the cemetery.

But...how easy is it to forgive yourself?

Shi Jingyuan sighed and said, "I don't deny that your father and Chen Lang's deaths were related to you. However, being related doesn't mean it's your responsibility! In this matter, neither you nor Chen Lang did anything wrong. What was wrong was the inherent social concept."

Lin You raised his head and met Shi Jingyuan's eyes with a slightly surprised expression.

"You...actually speak for him?"

Shi Jingyuan smiled when he heard that. He raised his hand and tapped her on the forehead.

"Why, in your eyes, am I such a petty person? Just because you were in love with him, I have to use the most vicious thoughts to speculate about him?"

After a pause, he continued: "I am not a saint. If he were still alive, I would definitely compete with him fairly. But he..."

The word "death" is too sensitive.

Shi Jingyuan didn't say it out loud, not wanting to rub salt into Lin You's heart.

Lin You sensed his kindness and said sincerely, "Thank you."

Shi Jingyuan patted her head lovingly, "From your story, I can see that he must love you very much. So, I don't mind you always keeping a place for him in your heart."

"So generous?" This was beyond Lin You's expectations.

Could it be that people at Mr. Shi’s level really look at things differently from ordinary people?

Shi Jingyuan smiled faintly, "I should thank him."

If it wasn't for Chen Lang, the person who died might be Lin You. So, he sincerely thanked the man who devoted himself to Lin You.

For his sake, he can let the Chen family go.

But others...

Shi Jingyuan suddenly felt a chill. Lin You didn't understand why and thought the night wind had cooled down again.

"You should go in and rest. There are hotels available for you to stay in, but you insist on squeezing in here. You are really asking for trouble."

Lin You took Shi Jingyuan back.

Shi Jingyuan paused and said very seriously: "Lin You, if I hadn't come here today, you wouldn't know that in Auntie's eyes, Cheng Hao is her prospective son-in-law! I have given you my body, you can't just pull up your pants and deny it, and now you don't even give me a name."

Lin You was startled, "..."

Shi Jingyuan was very persistent on this issue.

"Lin You, you are trying to play both sides. If the boat capsizes and hurts innocent people, I won't care."

Lin You rolled her eyes at him. He was worthy of being President Shi. Even when making his demands, he used both soft and hard tactics, leaving her no way out.

Lin You sighed, "Okay. I'll talk to my mom about this tomorrow."

Shi Jingyuan was satisfied, so he let her hold his hand and walk him back to the door.

Before Shi Jingyuan entered the door, he stroked her cheek and said in a deep voice:

"You should also go to bed early. Although you didn't give me an answer, I still want to say one more thing. Think about it, if you are not happy, then their efforts will be in vain, right?"

After Lin You returned to the room, he groped his way into the quilt and hugged Ms. Su's waist from behind.

Ms. Su was soundly asleep, and he just instinctively patted the back of her hand as if to comfort her.

Lin You closed his eyes and recalled Shi Jingyuan's words.

After a while, she suddenly opened her eyes.

Was Shi Jingyuan's last sentence calling her a dog?
