[Special episode 1. Buying a house]

Qiao Yi issued a letter of understanding to Cui Xiaoyun, the case has been filed and cannot be revoked, that's the only way to go.

Pei Mingfeng was not very happy, he felt that there was no need to do this, and he also felt sourly that Qiao Yi had lost his love for "Cui Xiaoyun". He was pinching his nose to pick girls according to Qiao Yi's preferences, and Qiao Yi liked this one looks.

Qiao Yi said angrily: "Cui Xiaoyun is bad, but she was instigated by you. If she is sentenced to ten years in prison, is it really okay for you to be alone?"

Pei Mingfeng: "..."

Rather than saying that Qiao Yi was "forgiving" Cui Xiaoyun, it would be better to say that he was "forgiving" him.

Qiao Yi now wants to deal with the past thoroughly, and let's not worry about it if he suffers or not. If he is stuck with the past, it will be the most troublesome.Qiao Yi felt that he was like this before, procrastinating, but now that he has figured it out, he has changed from his previous style and has become quite straightforward.

The lease of the old rental house expired, and Qiao Yi was about to withdraw the lease.

In fact, he had saved some money after his job became stable, and he could have changed to a better place a long time ago, but at that time, firstly, he was reluctant to break the contract because he still had to pay two months’ rent, and secondly, this was the nest where he and Pei Mingfeng fell in love. Unwilling to give up, I procrastinated and procrastinated for another three months.

Recently, Qiao Yi always felt that besides the memories of him falling in love with Pei Mingfeng, there was also the memory of him being miserably cheated by Pei Mingfeng, which made him uncomfortable to think about.

Qiao Yi thinks about it, because the money he was defrauded before has also been returned, and with the money he saved later, he has a savings on hand. He is going to buy a new house. Not a good buy.

Qiao Yi was looking for a suitable house everywhere, but Mr. Pei insisted on sticking to him and accompanying him to look at the house.

In a first-tier city like S City, where land is very expensive, Qiao Yi's little money is not enough to look at. It is too far to buy, and it is not convenient for him to go to work.Qiao Yi picked and picked a small house, only about 70 square meters, one bedroom, one kitchen, one living room, one bathroom, with a balcony.

Pei Mingfeng was disgusted: "Isn't this too small?"

Qiao Yi subconsciously blurted out and said back: "Then you will pay me?"

After finishing speaking, both of them were stunned, and said without hesitation, for fear of Qiao Yi's repentance, "Okay!! Then let's change to a bigger one, isn't it too crowded for two people to live here?"

Qiao Yi quickly redeemed his slip of the tongue: "I accidentally said something wrong, so I don't want you to pay. You still want to buy a house, you have so many houses, do you still need to buy it? I just buy my house myself, It's too crowded for two people, who wants to live with you?"

Pei Mingfeng suddenly faltered, and said aggrievedly: "Then this is here... Anyway, I don't care, I will be where you are, if you don't want to live in my house, then I will live in, this is our wedding house."

Qiao Yi blushed, glanced at the real estate agent next to him, pulled Pei Mingfeng over, and scolded him in a low voice: "What are you talking about? Didn't you see that there are still people here?"

Pei Mingfeng didn't dare to say anything.

Qiao Yi said: "Returning the wedding house, are you really thinking too far? Then it will be considered as you marrying into my family. You have to inherit so much property from your family, can you really do this?"

Pei Mingfeng said disapprovingly: "What's the matter? Anyway, there is no good thing in my family. It's best not to pass on this bad gene."

Qiao Yi: "..."

After all, buying a house is a major event in life, especially for a salaryman like Qiao Yi, it is necessary to investigate carefully.Qiao Yi didn't have much money in his hand, so he thought about buying a smaller one first, and the pressure to pay off the mortgage wasn't too great, although

He's been promoted now, but he can still vividly remember the difficult days in the workplace before. Although he finally realized that it wasn't because of him, after thinking about it, Qiao Yi still wants to buy a small one. The risk is not big.

City S has been developing in recent years, and there are many new real estate projects that have popped up. Each has its own advantages, some are remote, but have good greenery and good air, and few people. , it is more convenient to go to work, and some schools are nearby, and they are in the school district, of course, this is more expensive.

To do one thing, Qiao Yi made sufficient preparations, collected almost all the pre-sale real estate information in S City, first ruled out the large-scale houses that he was overburdened with, and picked the ones that were within the planned budget, and ran for several days After thinking about the house, after thinking about it, Qiao Yi still informed his mother.

His mother asked him, "Are you planning to buy it with that Pei?"

Qiao Yi didn't tell his mother everything about Pei Mingfeng. Anyway, he was the one who really wanted to live with Pei Mingfeng. Originally, it's better for children and elders to keep a little distance, so there's no need to make more troubles.For example, his job and being cheated. If his mother found out that it was all done by Pei Mingfeng, his mother would definitely blow it up. The relationship is a matter between two people. He and Pei Mingfeng have reconciled now. It is necessary to add extra problems and mention more things from the past, so as to add fire to my mother's heart.He wrote a letter of understanding to "Cui Xiaoyun", and his mother was already very dissatisfied. She felt that the money must be returned and the punishment must be given to her. It was Qiao Yi who coaxed her to do so.

Qiao Yi heard her mother ask this question, and quickly said: "No, I'm going to buy it by myself, without letting him get involved."

His mother reluctantly agreed with him: "Yes... Then do you have enough money? I'll give it to you if you don't have enough. Buy a bigger house. At this time, don't hold it back. The house price in your place has risen so fast, and you bought it with a big heart. Yes, there will be a lot of appreciation at that time.”

Qiao Yi never thought that his mother would take the initiative to give him money. He was flattered. He used to envy others to have a family to help him buy a house or a car. The properties are all small apartments, because money is tight, but when mother really said that, Qiao Yi was embarrassed: "Ah? What about you?"

"I don't have to worry. I'm still working. I'll have a pension after I retire in a few years. I'll save all the money you paid to your family after you just graduated. I still have some savings. You can use it to buy a house." Mom He said angrily, "Didn't you always say that I was partial to your sister? I also reserved your share."

Qiao Yi couldn't distinguish the feeling in his heart: "Then...then why didn't you tell me before?"

My mother said: "At that time, I didn't like the fact that you and Cui Xiaoyun were going to get married. You really wanted to get married. Didn't I say that you insisted on marrying her, then I don't care about you."

Qiao Yi: "..." I didn't expect that it was because of this incident that he occasionally felt sour.

Mother breathed a sigh of relief: "It's different now. I can't stop you if you insist on being with someone surnamed Pei, but you have to have your own property to be confident. Don't rely on him for everything, you know? "

Qiao Yi nodded: "Understood."

My mother said helplessly: "The road you chose yourself, you can only go on by yourself. But if you can't go on, don't be stubborn. Don't feel embarrassed because I scolded you at the beginning. If you have no choice, go home. ,do you know?"

Qiao Yi sniffed: "Understood."

When buying a house, my mother resolutely gave a sum of money as support. Qiao Yi originally thought that the small-scale real estate was a bit inappropriate. With more money in hand, there were also more choices.Fortunately, he still has the real estate information he checked before buying a house, and he can look up it again, even if it takes a few more days, Qiao Yi is not in a hurry.

I haven't checked the real estate again, but my sister took the initiative to call.

Qiao Yi didn't mention this to his younger sister. Qiao Yu, the younger sister, heard about her brother's purchase of a house from her mother, so she approached her elder brother directly, without saying a word: "Brother, why don't you tell me if you don't have enough money to buy a house?"

Qiao Yi said with a smile: "What are you talking about? You are still a student."

Qiao Yu said: "Don't underestimate me, I am rich, and I have already saved this amount."

Qiao Yu showed the number, and Qiao Yi was taken aback: "How did you save it? Just by writing manuscripts? Are you making so much money?"

Qiao Yu replied: "Yes, am I going to start an internship now? Anyway, I just use it to buy financial management, and I don't need so much. Brother, you are so kind to me, I can't be heartless. I I think Mom is right, the houses in S city are valuable, you can buy as good as you can, and it’s good to let it go up in value.”

Buying a house will increase the value. Qiao Yi also knew before that City S is not a small county. The economy is developing very well now, and the house price will only rise in the future, but it was not because of financial constraints before, Qiao Yi only wanted to buy small ones.But now his mother and younger sister gave him money to support him in buying a big one, Qiao Yi was also moved.

Thanks to his family's support, Qiao Yi's budget increased a lot. He thought about the real estate he could buy, and he was shocked. Now, with the money in his hand, in S city, as long as it wasn't a high-end and rich real estate, he would buy it. I can see it, of course the high-end housing is also available, that is, from a large apartment to a small apartment, Qiao Yi thinks it is not worthwhile, he is a working class, there is no need to be a big household, besides, if you buy a high-end disk, the decoration and property fees will follow Expensive, not necessary.

With money in hand, there are more options to choose from. Qiao Yi is going to take another look and choose a bigger house with good environment, convenient transportation and a good location.

Qiao Yi hadn't decided on a house to buy yet, and at this time he received an invitation from the high school reunion.

Qiao Yi asked Pei Mingfeng: "Have you received the invitation?"

Pei Mingfeng nodded: "Got it."

Pei Mingfeng asked cautiously: "Are you going?... If you are going, shall we go together?"

Qiao Yi thought of those old classmates who were all outstanding now, and he was the worst, so where would he have any face?Qiao Yi said in a muffled voice, "I don't really want to go. You can go by yourself."

Moreover, there are rumors about him having an affair with Pei Mingfeng, which have been widely circulated among his old classmates.

Pei Mingfeng: "Then if you don't go, I won't go either."

Qiao Yi thought back to the class reunion where he and Pei Mingfeng reunited for more than a year. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. At that time, he lost his job, lost his girlfriend and lost his savings. Only after Pei Mingfeng was caught, did he step on the series of traps that followed very smoothly.

At that time, there was a classmate who struck up a conversation with him and told him that Pei Mingfeng was gay, so he almost did something wrong when he thought inadvertently.

Qiao Yi didn't hold back, and asked Pei Mingfeng directly: "No, I think about it now, did you organize that class reunion? Someone even came to tell me that you like men... Be honest with me explain."

Pei Mingfeng pressed his lips tightly for a while, and finally let go: "...I did it. I also asked someone to tell you."

"I knew you were standing at the window when I arrived, and I took a look at you, but you immediately hid when you saw me."

"Since I arrived at the venue, I have been waiting for you to strike up a conversation with me, but you just won't come."

"I've been watching you quietly. When you went to the bathroom, I followed right away, but you still didn't talk to me, so I had to think of other ways. I thought, if I fall in front of you, you It's impossible to ignore me anymore, right?"

Qiao Yi was quite embarrassed: "There are so many people around you, how could I have the nerve to go there. You are all so glamorous, and I am disheartened. Isn't it a joke to get together?"

Pei Mingfeng: "I don't know them well, they are all embarrassed, you were best friends with me in high school, why are you embarrassed. I even specially asked someone to remind you that we have a good relationship."

Qiao Yi said: "What's the same... In high school, you were like my little pony. At that time, you were not as tall as me. I haven't seen you for a few years. You are tall and handsome... I have a psychological burden."

Pei Mingfeng looked at him and said seriously: "Brother, if you like, I can always be your pony."

Qiao Yi was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha."

Like when he was a boy, he stretched out his hand and touched Pei Mingfeng's head, but he inadvertently touched the scar on Pei Mingfeng's head. He remembered that Pei Mingfeng's head was broken twice, the first time was when he fell from the stairs of the overpass. The second time he came down, he was smashed by a hooligan in order to protect him. Qiao Yi said with mixed feelings: "Your head is strong enough. It's still fine after being broken several times. You don't have to be afraid that you will die if you are not careful." Already?"

Pei Mingfeng held his hand: "Actually... the first time I just wanted to fall in front of you, I didn't expect to fall on my head."

Qiao Yi: "..."

Qiao Yi's cheeks were slightly red, and sometimes he was very confused about why he was fascinated by Pei Mingfeng. It might be because Pei Mingfeng was really good-looking. I couldn't help but soften my heart.

Qiao Yi took his hand out of Pei Mingfeng's and said, "If you go to the class reunion, don't go around saying that we are in love."

【Special episode 2】

Because of Qiao Yi's outstanding work ability, and because their company really didn't have any talents, someone from above jumped ship, so Qiao Yi happened to fill his position. He was promoted to be the team leader within half a year after joining the company. He also had a few fresh graduates under him. The work was done with a bang.

The company was going to participate in a product exchange meeting in the industry, and Qiao Yi, as a representative, brought a few newcomers to attend.

It was no surprise that Qiao Yi met Gao Hai. He has a higher emotional intelligence than before. After all, he has become a small leader. He can't just write codes and work on technology all day. liaison relationship.

Gao Hai also hadn't seen Qiao Yi for a while. He had been interested in Qiao Yi for a while before, but because Pei Mingfeng was involved, things became troublesome. Pei Mingfeng is ruthless, although he likes Qiao Yi a little, But it hasn't reached the point where you have to be a king, there is no need to get into trouble because of Qiao Yi, thinking about it, I still retreat.

When I met Qiao Yi today, Gao Hai felt a little itchy when he saw him. Qiao Yi's appearance was the one he liked.He thought, before Pei Mingfeng did so many excessive things to Qiao Yi, ten people couldn't bear it. Qiao Yi is not the kind of person who swallows his anger, otherwise he wouldn't disturb his marriage, Qiao Yi With such a strong personality, maybe he and Pei Mingfeng have already broken up?

Gao Hai didn't startle the snake, he first observed Qiao Yi's hand, and sure enough, he didn't wear an engagement ring.

Gao Hai breathed a sigh of relief, and judging from the fact that he was sure of winning, Qiao Yi and Pei Mingfeng probably broke up.Then he felt that although he was not a moral model, he was much better than people like Pei Mingfeng, right?

Gao Hai specially sat beside Qiao Yi while eating: "Long time no see."

Seeing Gao Hai, Qiao Yi was inexplicably guilty. Earlier, Pei Mingfeng poured dirty water on Gao Hai, pushed all the blame to Gao Hai, and bribed Gao Hai's secretary to fabricate false testimony. He almost went to question Gao Hai at that time, but luckily he didn't. , otherwise it would be a shame.

Gao Hai was also unlucky, he was fine, but was involved in that little psychopath.Qiao Yi couldn't help being a little subtle when facing Gao Hai, with an unnatural attitude and flickering eyes.

Gao Hai has been chasing Qiao Yi for half a year, and he knows that Qiao Yi is a rock, so it's interesting to have such a shy and timid expression.Originally, it was not easy for their gay men to find a companion. After breaking up with Pei Mingfeng, Qiao Yi would be quite lonely?

Qiao Yi toasted Gao Hai with a glass of wine: "Mr. Gao, I was ignorant before and really caused you a lot of trouble."

Gao Hai drank his glass of wine and said kindly: "I also wish you a promotion. Gold will shine sooner or later. If you were still in my company, you would have been promoted a long time ago."

Gao Hai's speaking skills are superb. It's been a long time since we saw each other. In just a few words, he coaxed Qiao Yi into submission. He didn't rush to eat tofu or flirt. It might be useful to others. Qiao Yi couldn't use this set, so he led Qiao Yi, introduced him to other industries, chatted for a while, and Qiao Yi received a dozen business cards.

But Qiao Yi is not a big shot, and no one is very enthusiastic about him.

After the meal, Qiao Yi drank a few bottles of wine, his head was dizzy.

Gao Hai asked, "Shall I drive you back?"

Qiao Yi woke up inexplicably, this scene seemed familiar!He pressed his forehead and said, "It's okay, I'll take a taxi back by myself."

What Gao Hai thought in his mind was, um, if Pei Mingfeng wasn't called to pick him up, it really was a breakup.

Into the elevator downstairs.

Qiao Yi smelled a scent of fragrance, and looked up to see a beautiful woman, whom he actually knew. Isn't this Secretary Liang next to Pei Mingfeng?Secretary Liang was also taken aback when he saw him, but he didn't expect to run to a hotel just for dinner.

Several company executives who were dismissive of Qiao Yi saw Secretary Liang, and immediately recognized the person next to Pei Mingfeng, and immediately surrounded him to strike up a conversation, and introduced themselves: "Ms. Liang, hello...President Pei recently..."

Seeing that Qiao Yi seemed to be drunk, Secretary Liang didn't say a word, avoided those people, walked up to Qiao Yi, and asked gently: "Mr. Qiao, are you drunk? Shall I take you back?"

Qiao Yi immediately received a lot of people's attention. He was a small shrimp, how could he be treated like this by Secretary Liang, Qiao Yi was a little uncomfortable, and said embarrassedly: "It's okay, don't worry about me."

Secretary Liang glanced at Gao Hai. She knew that Gao Hai had pursued Qiao Yi, and she was a little anxious. Mr. Qiao didn't care. She was afraid that President Pei would find out that she had met Mr. Qiao who was drunk but ignored him. Then she would be doomed.

Secretary Liang asked again persistently, how could Qiao Yi have the nerve to bother the girl, he was not drunk enough to know about human affairs.

After getting out of the elevator, Secretary Liang saw that Gao Hai was still by Pei Mingfeng's side, and couldn't chase after him, so he had to send Pei Mingfeng a message.

On the way to the parking lot, there was still a section of the same road, Gao Hai suddenly said: "Xiao Qiao, I have something to tell you, come with me."

Qiao Yi didn't understand, so since Gao Hai helped him a lot today, he obediently followed him: "What's the matter?"

When they arrived outside the hotel, by the flower bed beside the road, seeing that there was no one else around, Gao Hai cut straight to the point, and asked Qiao Yi rather depressedly: "...so you and Pei Mingfeng haven't broken up yet? Then why don't you wear Engagement ring? Don’t wear it normally? To avoid suspicion?”

Qiao Yi didn't expect Gao Hai to ask him this suddenly, and said, "I haven't broken up yet...but it doesn't count as being together. I don't know what to say."

Gao Hai looked at him, and asked puzzledly: "Where did you have the strength to question me righteously? How did it become like this when it was your turn? Pei Mingfeng did such an exaggerated thing to you, and you still With him?"

Qiao Yi was stunned, the summer night wind blew, his dizzy head cleared up, he frowned himself, and said: "Mr. Gao, I am very grateful for your help, but Pei Mingfeng and I It's nothing to do with you, right?"

Gao Hai was stunned for a moment, then laughed a few times: "Your speaking style is still exactly the same as before. Xiao Qiao, actually, I always thought that if Pei Mingfeng hadn't been a hindrance, maybe we could be together."

Qiao Yi said, "No."

Gao Hai: "?"

Qiao Yi said very firmly: "I can't tell you anything else... um... Pei Mingfeng is crazy, he's full of bad things, but he really likes me very much, unlike you. As for me, Before I met him, I never thought that I would be with a man... After I met him, alas, I can't tell. Anyway, I don't think I will like another man. He is alone, already It's taking all my patience and courage."

Gao Hai hesitated to speak, as if he suddenly felt something, he looked behind Qiao Yi.

Qiao Yi also seemed to have noticed something, turned his head, and saw Pei Mingfeng standing behind him stupidly.

Qiao Yi blushed.

Gao Hai looked at the two of them and felt that he couldn't stay any longer. He was just a bright light bulb and left silently.

Only then did Qiao Yi come to his senses, he ignored Pei Mingfeng, turned around and left, and took a taxi on the side of the road.

Pei Mingfeng walked up to him and asked him cautiously: "Brother, shall I take you home?"

Qiao Yi ignored him, waved to a taxi, opened the door, he sat in front, and Pei Mingfeng followed behind.

Qiao Yi was stunned for a moment, and scolded him: "What are you doing in the car?"

Pei Mingfeng said shyly, "Come home with you."

The driver waited for a while: "Are you guys together? Can you drive?"

Before Qiao Yi could speak, Pei Mingfeng said, "We are together, master, let's drive."

Qiao Yi didn't talk to Pei Mingfeng all the way. When he got out of the car at the door, Pei Mingfeng was still following behind him secretly. Qiao Yi turned his head and gave him a look: "Don't follow me. Why are you following me?" Like a lappy dog."

Pei Mingfeng: "You said just now that you like me..."

Qiao Yi: "I like Pei Mingfeng who is a normal person."

Pei Mingfeng: "Then haven't I been improving myself?"

Qiao Yi: "How long has it been, how can it be changed?"

Pei Mingfeng seemed afraid of scaring him, so he said "oh", feeling quite lonely, he endured it for a long time, but couldn't bear it anymore: "Brother, can you give me a standard, how do I change it? I know I did a lot of things wrong, I broke your heart, but I really want to make it right, what can I do to forgive me and give me another chance?"

Qiao Yi held back for a while, and said in a muffled voice: "Why are you still asking me this kind of question... To be honest, Xiaofeng, you have grown up like this since you were a child, and I don't expect you to really change completely. It's impossible to become a good person by worldly standards."

"Besides, you live in that environment, and I don't want you to become timid in the mall. People like me can't get along."

"So, I can't say what kind of standard this is..."

Pei Mingfeng was very depressed.

At this time, Qiao Yi said: "I have thought about the bad things you did to me for a long time. I will either take revenge or forgive you. There will be a simple result. I don't want to get stuck in the middle."

Pei Mingfeng said: "But you still have no results now."

Qiao Yi frowned and stared at him, and said, "You are obviously much smarter than me, why are you suddenly stupid at this moment? Did I take revenge on you?"

"No..." Pei Mingfeng said as he came back to his senses, "!!"

Qiao Yi said, "Otherwise, why would I burn all those photos?"

Before Qiao Yi's words fell, Pei Mingfeng rushed over, hugged him, called out, put his arms around his waist, and lifted him up high: "Brother, are you willing to fall in love with me?"

Qiao Yi hugged him back: "Don't lie to me again in the future."
