They are all men, what are you afraid of?

Li Xi found himself turned into a silkworm chrysalis, wrapped in a white and soft cocoon waiting to break out into a butterfly, but suddenly the cocoon burst open, Li Xi shrank his head in fright, "Papa" The voice became louder, and Li Xi realized that she was nestled in a soft quilt.

Li Xi squinted his eyes and rubbed against the pillow, as if someone was knocking on the door, Li Xi got out of bed in a daze and went to open the door. When he walked to the living room, he met Qu Zhe who was opening the door. Qu Zhe was only wearing a pair of shorts. The back was strong and smooth, and Li Xi, who hadn't fully woken up early in the morning, couldn't help swallowing.

As soon as the door lock rang, Qu Lian's voice rushed through the crack of the door, "Brother, you are so good! It's fine to use the doorbell as a decoration, I have to clap my hands..." Stepping into the door, I saw Qu Zhe and Li Xi One of them stood on top of a chicken coop as if he hadn't woken up, and then he froze there immediately.

Qu Zhe followed his gaze and looked back, only to find Li Xi standing behind him with a confused face, and then Qu Lian screamed "Ah—" which startled both of them.

"You! You..." Qu Lian looked excited, threw the things in his hands on the table, and began to look back and forth between Qu Zhe and Li Xi, "The progress is too fast!"

Qu Zhe ignored her and went straight to the bathroom to wash up, leaving only Li Xi standing there, bewildered by Qu Lian's wolf-like gaze, Li Xi looked to the left and right awkwardly, as if The feeling of being surrounded by people with no clothes on feels so fucking, and finally turned around and ran away.

"Hey, don't run!" Qu Lian quickly stopped Li Xi, looking at him with great interest.

"What, what are you doing?" Li Xi realized that he was stuttering as soon as he spoke, and he couldn't help biting his lips secretly.It's not that he didn't know why he appeared at Qu Zhe's house, Li Xi remembered what happened last night clearly, he felt that he was actually very sober when he was drunk, but he became very courageous and would do whatever he thought in his heart.It's just that after being sized up by Qu Lian now, Li Xi felt a little nervous, but then he thought that he hadn't done anything excessive, so he pushed Qu Lian's hand away, "Don't be so early in the morning. It's not good to drag me around."

Qu Lian put the back of her hand back with a smile, and walked around Li Xi in circles, "That's right, don't flirt with married women anymore, I will pay attention."

Where does this follow?Li Xi rolled his eyes, "What nonsense are you talking about! I just spent the night here drunk, how can I still be a married woman? You are too fond of your brother, isn't it too cheap for him to define it this way? !"

"I brought you a new toothbrush and towel, go wash it." Qu Zhe just finished listening to Li Xi howl after washing up.

Qu Zhe didn't care much, but Li Xi's face froze. Qu Zhe must have heard what he said just now, so loudly. Although he was always a little arrogant, he couldn't bear it now.But the words were already out of his mouth, and he couldn't take them back, so Li Xi had no choice but to walk past Qu Zhe and walk towards the bathroom with his mouth tightly pursed.

Looking at Li Xi's back, Qu Lian grabbed her brother's arm and asked in confusion, "Eh? What's going on? Isn't it what I thought?"

"What's going on? What do you think is going on?" Qu Zhe scratched his hair, looking thoughtfully at the closed door of the bathroom.

Hearing this, Qu Lian became discouraged, and said rather resentfully: "Brother, you are too out of touch."

Qu Zhe smiled, on the road?It took him several years to finally get on the right track, and there was a long way to go, so he had to take his time.

"By the way, how did you remember it?"

"Here, grandpa's home-brewed glutinous rice wine, I'll bring it here for you to taste." Qu Lian raised his chin towards the two jars on the table.

Qu Zhe went into the kitchen with glutinous rice wine and made a simple breakfast.

As soon as Li Xi came out after washing up, he smelled a sweet smell of wine. Although he felt a little uncomfortable after drinking too much wine last night, he still twitched his index finger when he smelled this scent.

"Come and eat." Qu Zhe waved to him.

Slices of bread and cut fruits were placed on the table. Li Xi didn't want to stay for breakfast, but his stomach was growling and the smell was too tempting, so he walked over.

Li Xi took a sip, and it tasted really good. Last night's drunkenness didn't affect his appetite at all.

After dinner, Li Xi was about to go back to the hotel to go back to City Z with Chen Zhizhen, but when she turned on her phone, she found an unread text message from Chen Zhizhen, saying that Manager Yang came to her temporarily to urge her to go back, so she left without waiting for Li Xi.Li Xi looked at the time, only to realize that it was already 10:30.

Although there is no need to rush back to work today, Li Xi still wants to go back as soon as possible.

"Are you leaving today?" Qu Zhe asked.

"Well, it's time to go back. Go back early to pack up and rest for half a day."

"It's the same if you are tired and rest here for half a day before going back."

Li Xi didn't answer, but instead asked, "Where's Qu Lian?"

"left already."

"Leave?" Li Xi didn't expect Qu Lian to be so mean-spirited. He thought he could get a ride, but he didn't expect her to slip away so fast. If he wants to leave, he will see him off.

Seeing this, Qu Zhe patted Li Xi's head, "Go back to the hotel to get something, I'll send it to you."

Li Xi felt a little awkward about his actions, stared at his hands and said, "Don't bother, aren't you going to work?"

Qu Zhe once again felt Li Xi's resistance to him, and withdrew his hand, "No trouble, I don't care, I just happen to be fine today."

Richie had no choice but to agree.Qu Zhe was still waiting for him after sending him back to the hotel, and then sent him to the station.When Li Xi was about to leave, he didn't know what to say. After all, he was a classmate once, but asking him to say something like "not far away, go to Z city to play with him when I have time" is too fake, it's better Thank you kindly.

"Li Xi," Qu Zhe suddenly stopped him, "Do you want to work here?"

"What?" Li Xi was stunned when he heard this sentence, and couldn't react for a while.

"Qu Lian, Bao Wenxing, we are all in City C. If you come here to work, we can meet often, and it will be the same as before."

"Are you kidding me?" Li Xi smiled cooperatively.

"I mean it, I think..."

Li Xi didn't let him continue, and immediately interrupted: "I've only worked for less than two years, and I'm still waiting for a promotion and salary increase! I'm not you, you can do whatever you want, tell me to resign suddenly and come here Side, is it too nonsense? Then you can't find a job and support me?"

"You can come to work in my company." Qu Zhe looked at Li Xi seriously. In fact, it's not a problem to raise him directly, but he looked nervous, so Qu Zhe didn't say it out loud.

Li Xi and Qu Zhe looked at each other silently for a moment, and finally opened the car door without saying anything, got out of the car and left.He didn't know what Qu Zhe was thinking, why he would give him such a suggestion, to be honest, he was not unmoved after hearing it.It’s not that he doesn’t have classmates or friends in City Z, but the friends he made in college are just a few buddies in the class, and he doesn’t have much heart-to-heart at all, and he doesn’t have much contact after work; he has a good relationship with his colleagues, but it’s only good It's just that, after all, it's still kind of lonely.Especially drinking and chatting with Baozi and the others last night made him miss this long-lost sincere friendship.Moreover, he still wants to get closer to Qu Zhe, even though his rationality tells him that he should stay away and straight men should not be provoked, but he finds that he still wants to get closer to him from the bottom of his heart.

Li Xi shook his head, he couldn't think any more, how could he really think along because of Qu Zhe's casual words?Anyway, my home is in Z City, and I have found a satisfactory job there and settled down, isn't it great?Now you should put your mind into your work, accumulate enough work experience to pass the mid-level professional title, and take the road of promotion and salary increase to improve your life value!Yes, that's it, Li Xi clenched his fists and thought.

When he got home, Li Xi sent a text message to Chen Zhizhen. Chen Zhizhen told him that he was still on a business trip today, and he didn't have to go to work because he had nothing to do, so Li Xi rested at home with peace of mind.

But as soon as he was free, Li Xi uncontrollably began to think about Qu Zhe asking him to work in City C. He was really entangled. On the one hand, he wanted to agree. After all, if he could really work in Qu Zhe's company , there will be more opportunities for the two to meet, which is a dream for him; but on the other hand, he will also worry that he didn't grasp the opportunity when he had the opportunity to get the moon first, and now he doesn't care about his own heart. Wouldn't it be self-defeating?

But no matter what, it is undeniable that Qu Zhe's suggestion like this planted a seed in Li Xi's heart, and it would always make him slowly raise a little expectation.

Li Xi went to work early the next morning, "Good morning, everyone!" Li Xi shouted as usual as soon as he walked to the door of the workshop.

It was still early and not many people came, two or three people raised their heads to respond, Li Xi saw a figure rushing towards him, after he saw that it was Ding Nan, he remembered what happened last weekend, didn't he want to hit him Bar?

Seeing Ding Nan stretch out her hand, Li Xi thought she was really going to hit her, so she quickly reached out to block it, but Ding Nan just grabbed his arm and dragged him to the seat.

"What are you doing? The influence of chattering is so bad." Li Xi sat on the chair and said with a wrinkled face.

"Affected by a fart?" Ding Nan let go of him, and leaned over to ask again, "Hey, why didn't you come yesterday?"

"Aren't you on a business trip?"

"Sister Chen came back yesterday, why didn't you come back?"

"She came back because the leader was looking for her temporarily, but he didn't look for me. Why did I come back? No, I didn't ask you to do my work. You were so enthusiastic in the morning just to ask this?" Li Xi thought this woman was really amazing, Every time I look like it's important, but I always ask about unimportant things.

"Then, if you didn't come back yesterday, are you really staying with your first love in City C?" Ding Nan asked tentatively.

"What, what first love!" Hearing this sentence, Li Xi was shocked, and subconsciously refuted loudly, causing several other people in the workshop to look over.

Li Xi was a little panicked, and then remembered about his relationship, except for his classmates in high school, he had never disclosed it anywhere else, and his colleagues probably didn't know about it.

Sure enough, Ding Nan curled her lips and said, "Why are you reacting so badly? Is it really right?"

"What did you say?" Even though it was a false alarm, he was still shocked. Li Xi felt guilty again when he thought of Qu Zhe.

"Yesterday, Sister Chen came back alone, and I found out that you were out with your friends after asking. Sister Chen said that she heard a woman's voice, and everyone guessed it might be your girlfriend." Xiao Li said.

"That's right, but you don't look like a long-distance relationship, so I guess it's your first love." Ding Nan added.

"It's all messed up, you guys really know how to figure it out, that's my high school classmate, a pure friendship." Li Xi looked helpless, there are gossips wherever there are women, and the more women get together, the gossip spreads The faster it goes the less real it is.

"Then we can rest assured that you are the only man in this workplace. There are so many single women in our company that are not enough, so we can't let you go to others." Xiao Li teased and raised his eyebrows at Ding Nan secretly.

"Tsk, I thought you all looked down on me? Since you like it, I should have said it earlier, hey, I'll see you off." Li Xi patted his chest boldly, and then stretched out his arms in the direction of Xiao Li.

Everyone in the room was amused by him, and Xiao Li waved his hands while laughing: "Forget it, I don't want to be loved by others."

At this time, Chen Zhizhen came, "Why are you laughing so happily?"

"I'm not smiling, sister Chen, you are so beautiful." Li Xi rushed to say, and then smiled slyly at her.

Chen Zhizhen had a puzzled expression on his face, he was already curious, but when he saw that Li Xi refused to speak and just smiled at himself, he thought that his face was blurred again, so he took out the mirror from his bag and looked at it for a long time.

Li Xi pretended to be looking at the computer seriously, but from the corner of his eye he kept sneaking glances at Chen Zhizhen's reaction, suppressing a smile in his heart, he expected this to be the case.Whoever asked Chen Zhizhen to spread his untrue gossip, let her also struggle for a while.
