Only one step away

When he woke up in the morning, it was already 8:20, and he didn't have time to pay attention to the people sleeping soundly on the bed. Li Yuan got up in a hurry, washed his face and brushed his teeth, changed his clothes, grabbed the key in the entrance, rushed out, and went straight to the garage to drive to work.Along the way, he sprinted at the maximum speed limit of the inner ring expressway, and finally rushed into the office at the last second.

Sitting down on the chair in the office, he breathed a sigh of relief.Loosening his tie, he turned on the computer, and when he was about to check the information, someone knocked on the door, and Feng Zhenglin came in with the same ambiguous smile as yesterday.But he came in without saying anything, just put down the work report and went out.

Li Yuan flipped through the work report submitted by Feng Zhenglin, wondering why he was looking at him so ambiguously, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure it out.The morning work was very leisurely, nothing special, when Li Heng finished his work, the hour hand pointed to 10:13, so he took his cup to the pantry to make himself a cup of coffee .

Secretary Yin at the door saw him coming out with a cup, and hurriedly got up to signal him to do it. Li Yuan waved his hand to signal her to do it herself.In fact, he also planned to take this opportunity to come out to see if the staff outside took the opportunity to fish.

Turning around, he inspected the staff with the brewed coffee. They were all busy with their own work. He walked towards his office in satisfaction. At this time, the mobile phone in his trouser pocket rang suddenly, and he He walked into the office quickly and closed the door behind him.Outside the door, Feng Zhenglin looked at his figure with a wicked smile.

Putting the cup on the table, Li Yuan took out his cell phone, looked at the number, was a little disappointed, but he still answered the call.

"Li Yuan?" A young woman's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Li Yuan rubbed the center of his brows, and replied, "It's me, what's the matter?"

"I called you before the head and said that I would come back to pick up things..."

"I told you on the phone the other day, you just need to pick it up yourself. You don't need to go out of your way..."

"I'm at your house now." The woman grabbed his head, said something, and then paused, "Do you think you don't need to explain something?"

"Explain?" Li Yuan frowned.He felt that he couldn't understand what she said, so he stood up from the chair, walked to the window, looked at the ants-like pedestrians under the window, pondered for a while, and replied, "Explain what?"

"You don't know what to explain?"

"Yes. I don't think I quite understand what you're saying."

"Really? If that's the case, then let's do it. I brought back your coats from the dry cleaner, and I filled the refrigerator with food for you. I also changed the toothpaste and shower gel for you." New one. Besides..." On the other end of the phone, the woman's voice paused, as if hesitating to speak, "That's it, I'm hanging up..."

Listening to her "long-winded", Li Yuan suddenly felt a little far away.

He felt that he should say something, but couldn't find the right words.A little slumped, he put down his hands and forgot to hang up the phone, but just looked out the window in a daze.

Suddenly, as if he remembered something, his face changed drastically. After cursing secretly "Damn", he picked up his coat and car keys, opened the door of the office and rushed out, at the fastest speed Run to the parking lot, then start the engine and rush back to the residence.

Back at the residence, Li Yuan stood in front of the door a little depressed. He came back in such a hurry that he didn't even bring the house key.But he wanted to touch his mobile phone to make a home call, but found that the phone was left in the company. In desperation, he could only ring the doorbell, hoping that the people inside would not leave.

After pressing for a while, the door was finally opened, and it was Sunan who opened the door with a flushed face, and kept sniffling.Li Yuan looked at it and was stunned.Sunan watched him stay at the door without coming in, and smiled: "What are you doing?"

Looking at his expression, Li Yuan suddenly realized that the other party had left, and sighed a little dejectedly: "No...it's nothing."

Sunan watched him enter the room, slumped on the sofa, didn't speak, but sat quietly beside him.Hearing the other party's strange breathing, Li Yuan raised his head and looked at him: "Are you feeling unwell?"

"Well, a little." Sunan wiped his nose and replied, "Last night, it seems that drinking caused some colds."

"I'll get you the medicine." Li Yuan said as he wanted to get up to get the medicine, but was stopped by Sunan.

"I've already taken medicine."

Li Yuan looked at Sunan, and after a while, he asked, "She gave it?"

"En. She seems to know where everything is put. She even boiled ginger soup for me. Is she your girlfriend?" Sunan let go of his hand and asked with a smile.

"Girlfriend?" Li Yuan smiled wryly and shook his head, "Probably..."

Having said that, until now, Li Yuan himself is not sure about his relationship with that woman.

That woman was introduced by a friend, her face and figure are naturally nothing to talk about, and she works in a foreign company, so she can be regarded as a high-level white-collar worker.

In his memory, he has been dating this woman for more than a year. This woman's character is a bit remarkable. On weekdays, the other party often calls to ask her about her health, but he often neglects her because of work.In the middle of this year, I also met the parents of both parties. It was originally planned to get engaged in the spring, but I didn't expect that the woman didn't come back after her annual leave. She just called and said they wanted to break up. The specific reason is unknown.

For Li Yuan, it was not the first time to be kicked by a woman, but it was the first time to be kicked in this way when the development was originally smooth, so at the beginning he felt somewhat suffocated.

However, when I think about it, I am usually indifferent to others, and I have many shortcomings in my personality, which is understandable. What's more, he feels that he is a person who is used to living alone. He was somewhat unaccustomed to having such a person.

Without taking his words, Sunan just patted his shoulder lightly.

Li Yuan twitched the corner of his mouth slightly as a response, raised his hand to look at his watch, and said, "Shall we go to lunch?"

After his reminder, Sunan suddenly felt a little hungry, so he grinned: "Okay."

The place for lunch was a porridge shop, Li Yuan picked up a side seat and sat down, while he was ordering food, Sunan sat on the seat and looked at the shop with great interest.

It's lunch time right now, and the small shop is full of people, which is not unusual at all. What makes Sunan curious is the rows of steaming clay pots in the shop, and there are many people in the shop. There is an alluring fragrance in the steam.

Seeing him staring at those clay pots, Li Yuan explained, "It's porridge cooked on a low fire."

Sunan smiled and touched his nose: "It's quite interesting."

Li Yuan got up and walked towards the rows of clay pots, and when he came back, he already had two bowls of steaming hot porridge in his hands.Watching him push the bowl in front of her, Sunan smiled.

"Preserved egg and lean meat porridge, seafood ginkgo porridge."

"Eat more." Li Yuan said and pushed the few dishes in front of him to him.

Smiling, Sunan began to feast on it bluntly.He drank a large bowl of porridge in a hurry, looked up, the man in front of him was holding chopsticks in his hands, the porridge in the bowl did not move, he stretched out his hand and shook it in front of him, the other party suddenly woke up and looked at him .

"Thinking of a girlfriend?"

"Ah..." Li Yuan opened his mouth, wanting to deny it, but the words changed again, "She used to come to this restaurant to eat."

"No wonder..." Sunan smiled meaningfully.

"No, that's not what it means!" Li Yuan hurriedly waved his hands, "It's just that drinking porridge helps with colds."

Sunan narrowed his eyes: "She also said that?"

Why?Li Yuan froze for a moment, but didn't react.He did remember that the woman had said such a thing, but he didn't pay much attention to it before, so why did it become something subconscious again?

"If you really like it so much and it's so important, why don't you go after it?" Sunan said, lowering his head and stirring another steaming bowl of rice porridge in his hand.

Chase back?Li Yuan shook his head.

Oh, he never had such an idea.

No, it's not so much that he didn't have that kind of thought, it's better to say that this is not his way of doing things at all.

It should be his own who can't be chased away, and what's not his own can't be kept, so he has no interest in retaining or regretting the people and things that left voluntarily.

This point has not changed from before to now, and he can even firmly believe that there will be no change in the future...

But...why...

"Ah, it's already 02:30..."

Hearing Sunan's voice, Li Yuan's expression changed drastically.Seeing that his face was not quite right, Sunan suddenly smiled slyly: "You didn't miss work, did you?"

Li Yuan frowned and nodded.

For him, everything was really inappropriate today, and it was only at this time that he suddenly remembered that he ran back without saying hello to anyone in the company this morning, and he didn't bring his phone with him.

Laughing at his nervousness, Sunan handed him the phone in his bag: "Hey, I'll give you my phone number, call back to the company, shall we?"

Although he felt a little hesitant, Li Yuan still answered the phone.Watching him get up and go outside the store to make a phone call, Sunan sighed while resting his cheeks, and began to finish the leftover food in a low voice.

When Li Yuan came back from the phone call, Sunan was checking out with the waiter.Seeing the waiter handing over the change to the other party, Li Yuan felt a little embarrassed: "This is so embarrassing... I clearly said that I was treating guests to dinner."

Sunan smiled and pulled the strap of the satchel: "Where is it, Mr. Li gave me coffee powder, is it a small gift in return? But it seems that I made the money?"

"Shall I take you home to rest first?"

"No, I'm not going back now."

"Where are you going then?"

"Go to the training class, and friends will come to find me there in a while."

"Then I'll take you to the training class first. You wait outside the door first, and I'll move the car."

Li Yuan said, grabbed his coat and left the store.It's just that when he moved the car outside the store, he found that Sunan was nowhere to be seen.
