Flashy Circle 3

As far as I can remember, it was a summer day.

Just had a fight with Ning Haiteng whom he had known for less than a minute.

He was covered in wounds, and sat obediently on the wicker chair in the garden, waiting for someone to apply medicine to him.

The person who applied the medicine carried a small medicine box, knelt down in front of him, and treated the wound on his foot first.

"Hiss—" The cotton ball just touched the wound lightly, but he insisted on saying, "Be gentle...it hurts..."

The man looked up at him.He looked back at him pitifully.

The man lowered his eyes and continued to apply the medicine to him, but his movements were obviously slower and lighter.

I was very happy in an instant.His heart was filled with such silent care, so he called out boldly, "Zixin..."

It was the first time he called his name.

He used to call him "His Royal Highness".In the story of The Little Mermaid, the little mermaid fell in love with the prince just by looking at it, probably like this.

The hand that applied the medicine stopped.

His heart also lifted up.At this moment, he was at a loss.

Then the hands moved again.Luo Zixin didn't say anything to his call.

If you don't say it, you agree.

"Zixin, Zixin, Zixin..."

He saw Luo Zixin frowned.No way, he really wanted to call.

This name, this intimate call, has been kept in his mouth, waiting for the day when he can really say it.

Finally waited.

Luo Zixin looked up at him again.

Ling Shang thought, Sunshine must also favor Luo Zixin.Because when he raised his eyes, the surrounding sunlight was particularly bright.

-

This winter is very cold.

Ling Shang slowly opened his eyes.The room was filled with blue night light.

Even with the body temperature in my arms, I still feel cold.

He looked down at He Xiutong who was lying in his arms.The latter slept soundly and breathed evenly.

Ling Shang carefully left the bed.He checked the time.

Three in the morning.

When he was supposed to be asleep, he didn't feel sleepy at all.

Ling Shang went into the study to deal with the documents.The surrounding is quiet, only the slight sound of documents turning pages.

Among these small sounds, he heard a voice, "Don't call me by my name casually in the future."

Ling Shang stopped turning the page.

After calling for so many years, he almost forgot.Not everyone can call Luo Zixin by name.

Now, like the group of kids who spoke ill of him behind his back, he was clearly told by Luo Zixin not to call him by his name.

Indeed, he shouldn't have called his name.

Because he doesn't value their friendship that much.

He chose He Xiutong, which meant that Luo Zixin would not be able to appear in front of them as a good friend in the future.Even in conversations, be cautious, lest He Xiutong notice anything.

It's really meaningless to have such a good friend.

Ling Shang, don't you want to alienate Luo Zixin?you did it.

-

At the end of the year, there are many large-scale banquets.

Today's event was held by the government, and all major business giants were called to thank them for "contributing to the revenue generation of the warehouse";

When entering the dinner, Ling Shang and Luo Zixin sat at the same table.

It is arranged like this every year.But today, the mood is different.

In previous years, Ling Shang's table was full of acquaintances, even if the seat had been reserved in advance, as long as Ling Shang said hello, he could sit next to Luo Zixin.

Today, he doesn't have to do that.

Just when everyone was seated and the atmosphere of the venue was in full swing, Ning Haiteng, who was next to Ling Shang, said to Luo Zixin who was diagonally opposite, "Zixin, I have something to discuss with Uncle Wu, you and I can change seats."

Luo Zixin sat next to Qi Che.

Facing a table of people, Luo Zixin gave up his seat gracefully.When the leadership team took the stage to give a speech, Luo Zixin had already sat down beside Ling Shang.

Speeches are long and boring.

In previous years, Ling Shang listened to this kind of official speech, but his eyes drifted all over the place, and when the drift was over, he quietly stretched out his hand to play with Luo Zixin's fingers.

Luo Zixin turned to look at him, and he curled his lips and complained, "It's so boring~ I'm suffocated~"

So Luo Zixin let him go.

But today, the two of them had no communication during the whole process.

After the dinner began, there was a lot of toasting, and many people rushed to the table to toast, and the scene was lively.

Sheng Yuzhi walked to their table, smiled and leaned down to whisper something in Luo Zixin's ear, and the latter got up and left the table.

And Ling Shang, talking and laughing happily with the people who came to ask him to toast.

The dinner was about to end, and Luo Zixin didn't come back.Everyone has left the banquet hall one after another.

Ling Shang and Ning Haiteng went downstairs together, the latter was about to say something to Ling Shang, they met Luo Zixin at the stairs on the next floor.

Luo Zixin also planned to go downstairs, but his eyes were only on Ning Haiteng, "Qi Fei said he wanted to eat oysters before, but the restaurant called me just now, and a batch of goods came, let's have a meal together sometime."

Ning Haiteng glanced at Ling Shang, and replied to Luo Zixin, "...I'll go back and ask him."

"Okay." Luo Zixin nodded, "Call me then."

When they got out of the gate, they realized that there was light rain in the sky.Recently, the cold air has hit frequently, which makes people unprepared.

There were already staff waiting at the door, holding umbrellas to send them to the car.

Ling Shang wanted to say goodbye to Ning Haiteng, but seeing that Ning Luo and Ning Luo were talking in a low voice, there was no room for others to intervene, so he looked away, got in the car and left silently.

After Ning Luo finished his business, Ning Haiteng raised his eyes and looked around, "...Ling Shang left so quickly?"

Luo Zixin didn't seem to hear his words, and said goodbye in a normal tone, "Then I'm leaving, and we'll talk about the rest tomorrow."

Ning Haiteng was the only one left, and he let out a weak sigh.

-

As usual.

Ling Shang works when he should work, rests when he should rest, and revels when he should revel.

The life between him and He Xiutong was good.

But today, he had a fever.

Early in the morning, I was hot all over and my mind was groggy.

Lying on the bed, he could hear He Xiutong's hurried footsteps.

When was the last time you were sick?He can't even remember.

I only remember that when he was a teenager, when he was sick, Luo Zixin sat by his bed and blew cold Chinese medicine on him.

"I don't want to drink traditional Chinese medicine, and I'm not allergic to Qifei." He lay on the bed and yelled dissatisfiedly, "I'm going to get an injection..."

"What to do with an injection, just drink a bowl of traditional Chinese medicine." Luo Zixin helped him sit up.

"Is it really enough to drink a bowl?" Ling Shang leaned on his shoulder, "You are a doctor, I will follow your orders...don't lie to me..."

Luo Zixin touched his forehead and said softly, "I won't lie to you."

He pinched his nose and drank the bowl of traditional Chinese medicine, and soon he felt much better.

Luo Zixin did not lie to him.

Luo Zixin has always been very reliable.

It would be a lie to say that I am not sad.When the body is weak, let his heart be weak as well.

Since he was a child, he had a small inferiority complex living in his heart.Because of Luo Zixin's acknowledgment and acceptance, he has grown into what he is now.

Luo Zixin's acquiescence and care made him feel great, because he could get Luo Zixin's friendship - he was different from those "others".

He hopes that he will always be different from "others".

But like everyone else, he was attracted by Luo Zixin and had desires for him.

As long as Luo Zixin beckons, he will run to his feet and circle around him like a puppy.He will humbly submit to him, as will so many others.

He's actually not special.

And Luo Zixin will eventually discover that he is the same as the people he entertains.

Their friendship is just a fig leaf that Ling Shang uses to cover himself.

Luo Zixin.

The name is in the mouth, it is unbearable suffering.

-

"Ling, come, drink, drink this bowl of medicine, medicine..." He Xiutong came to the bed with a strong smell of medicine.

"This is the mountain, mountain herbal medicine that I, I just bought, bought and cooked. Ping, if I don't feel well, I'll be fine after drinking a bowl. It's very, very effective." He helped Ling Shang to sit up.

"Thank you." Ling Shang smiled, took the porcelain bowl, and drank the medicine in one gulp.

Now that he has made a choice, no amount of emotion will help.

It's time to stop being vulnerable.There's no need to put it out there for people to see.

That mountain herb tasted weird, but it really worked.

The next day, his fever subsided.

In the afternoon, he was going to attend a banquet in the evening.

"You've just, just had your fever..." He Xiutong looked at him worriedly.

"It's okay." Ling Shang picked up his suit, "Tonight is the tail end of the General Chamber of Commerce, so we must go."

He didn't want his friends to know that he was sick, and then think of strange things.

She didn't want Luo Zixin to know that he was sick, and then feel that he was pretending to be pitiful.

-

The end of the General Chamber of Commerce has always been like a battlefield.

Merchants pretend to be dignified and innocent throughout the year, showing their true colors on the tail teeth, vying for the important military position in the coming year.

At the end of the finale, everyone turned back to a personable gentleman.

Everyone has a tacit understanding, and everything on the tail teeth is silent.

The dinner dishes are all big fish and big meat, with all kinds of strong flavors.

Ling Shang didn't feel much about it before, but today he felt uncomfortable after swallowing a piece of salmon sashimi.Just after a round of "battle", he was very hungry and needed to eat something anyway.

He drank some soup, stuffed a few pieces of meat, waited for the cooked porridge, and drank another bowl.

-

He went into the bathroom to wash his face, and while he was grooming, Sheng Yuzhi came in.

Seeing him, the latter smiled and nodded as a greeting.

Ling Shang nodded and smiled back.

"...Mr. Ling," the two were silent for a while, and Sheng Yuzhi said, "I know it's a bit strange to say it at this time, but you really shouldn't have treated Mr. Luo that way that night."

"I heard that you two have a good relationship. Didn't you consider Mr. Luo's feelings when you did that?"

It seemed that Sheng Yuzhi was brought here by the bloodiness raised on his tail teeth.Ling Shang endured his physical discomfort and looked at him, "Indeed, I went too far that night....Maybe this is because I value sex over friends. He Xiutong is a very important person to me, and I will spare no effort to protect him."

He smiled at Sheng Yuzhi, "The person you like is Mr. Luo, right? Since you clearly want to protect someone's mood, you should understand why I did that, can't you?"

Before Sheng Yuzhi could reply, Ling Shang left.

Walking out of the bathroom, feeling sick in his stomach, Ling Shang took a deep breath and suppressed it.

He did not return to the meeting place, but walked out of the gate and stopped a taxi to go to the hospital.

The more this is the case, the more we must cherish our body.

When the body recovers, he has plenty of time.

-

When He Xiutong came to the hospital, Ling Shang was receiving an injection in the VIP ward.

"You, are you okay?" After Ling Shang nodded, He Xiutong relaxed a little, and put the thermos on the table, "I, I cooked a little salt, salt porridge for you, wait, wait Let's eat later."

"Sorry for worrying you."

He Xiutong shook his head and held his hand, "One, it's always you, you take care of me, to be honest... I, I'm a little high, happy, and I'm finally, finally useful."

"Hi, take a good rest, I'll take a good look at you."

Ling Shang looked at him and smiled.

It turns out that no matter who speaks intimate and heart-warming words, the effect is actually the same.
