After half a month of living in the two cities, Sui Yang finally finished painting Xie Min's portrait on a certain Sunday morning.

It is said to be a portrait, but it is actually more like a microcosm of Xie Min's daily life.Sui Yang didn't draw the full face, but Xie Min thought it was him.Xie Min was very satisfied with Sui Yang's paintings. He stood beside Sui Yang and looked at them for a while, then decided to contact Shi Shan and find a famous framer to mount them.

Sui Yang said that he made a fuss out of a molehill, and there was nothing to frame, Xie Min reminded him to be careful: "If you give it to me, it's mine, you don't mind."

Yuhai City entered the early summer, and the temperature rose suddenly. Xie Min stood by the window, pushed the sleeves of his shirt to his elbows, and called Shi Shan. Sui Yang followed his request, poured ice water for him, and took it away. come over.

"Sui Yang," Xie Min glanced at the painting again, and the name of Sui Yang on the lower right corner, he still liked it very much, took the water and said, "This is my birthday present."

His birthday is in June, and Sui Yang has never been with him.

"It's too casual," Sui Yang didn't agree, "I'll give you something else for your birthday."

"Wherever you want," Xie Min said while drinking water, "I like it but it's not casual."

Sui Yang often laughed at him when he called himself Lao Tzu, but this time he rarely did not laugh, and asked Xie Min "Do you really like it?"

Xie Min said "Yes", Sui Yang lowered his head and kissed his face lightly.

He hugged Xie Min and didn't do anything more. Xie Min felt very safe in Sui Yang's arms, put the cup on the shelf beside him, hugged Sui Yang too, called his name, and confessed to him impulsively " I'm thinking about the future."

"I don't really want to work for my dad, but I haven't considered it yet."

Xie Min's plan has not yet fully formed, he told Sui Yang that recently a classmate with a good relationship in university contacted him, his investment company wanted to open a branch in China, and asked him if he was interested in joining.

"I have some savings," he told Sui Yang, "but I have been working in Wanzhuang Real Estate after graduation, and I don't know if I can do well."

"I'm afraid that I'll find out that I'm actually a waste after leaving my father and the family company," Xie Min complained. "I had a nightmare yesterday. I dreamed that I handed in my resignation letter to my father, and he locked me in the company's office." In the lounge."

Sui Yang only arrived in Yu Hai in the morning, last night Xie Min slept alone, for some reason, he slept very restlessly, and even woke up feeling confused.

"Maybe it's because my dad talks to me every day, as if scolding me for being useless." He raised his eyes to look at Sui Yang, "I don't know."

Sui Yang and him looked at each other for a few seconds, as if reassuring him, he said, "Xie Min, you will do well."

"You know again." Xie Min smiled.

"You've been doing very well," Sui Yang didn't smile, "School and work."

Xie Min rarely saw Sui Yang speak so earnestly, so he felt a little embarrassed, turned his eyes away, and said, "It's not that good."

Sui Yang came to Yu Hai in the morning and left again in the evening.Xie Min felt that when he was with Sui Yang, he obviously didn't do anything, and the time passed frighteningly fast, and it was almost time for Sui Yang to leave.

He sat on the sofa with his legs curled up, eating the cherries that Sui Yang gave him, and heard Sui Yang and his secretary call to talk about the itinerary after landing.

This time, Sui Yang was going on a business trip for seven days, and he happened to go to the city where Xie Min went to university. After Sui Yang hung up the phone, Xie Min chatted with him: "Don't you know that my university and graduate students are all studying there. Almost five years."

Sui Yang moved closer to him, Xie Min gave him two cherries, but he didn't pick it up and said, "I know."

"How do you know?" Xie Min said vaguely after eating by himself.

"Forgot," Sui Yang said, "I probably read it from Mr. Xie's draft."

Xie Min told him to leave, and asked him: "Have you been there before? It's pretty good there."

"It's a pity that I don't have time next week, otherwise we'll go back and have a look together," Xie Min recalled his student life, "My school is very beautiful."

"I've been there," Sui Yang said simply, "the company used to have suppliers there."

Xie Min didn't hear Sui Yang mention it, so he asked casually, "When did you go?"

"Five or six years." Sui Yang said.

Xie Min froze for a moment, then said, "Then I'm still in school."

"If you were then..." Xie Min said if he didn't know what he was going to say.

If they didn't break up, Sui Yang went to find him, and he could take Sui Yang to play around.

If Sui Yang knew where Xie Min went to school and came to see Xie Min, Xie Min might also be able to pretend to be generous and show him around the school.

However, there are not so many ifs in reality, Xie Min's student days are over, and the missed time cannot be regained.

"Sui Yang." Xie Min held the fruit plate of cherries and raised his face.Sui Yang's expression didn't change much. What Xie Min wanted to say was "Why did you never come to see me?" He suspected that Sui Yang knew it too, but what he said was "There is a nice restaurant next to the school. Are you free?" If you want to eat, I'll order it for you." He deliberately changed the subject and told Sui Yang: "It's very difficult to order, but this young master knows the chef."

Sui Yang said "thank you", praised Xie Min for having many friends, grabbed Xie Min's hand, kissed his lips, and didn't say whether he was free to eat until the end.

During the few days when Sui Yang was not in Yu Hai, Xie Min was very busy.

The company's affairs, his father's communication requirements piled up together, plus contact with college classmates across time differences, Xie Min didn't get five hours of sleep for several days in a row.

On Thursday afternoon, Xie Min was so sleepy that he asked Chi Yuan to cancel the meeting for him and lay down in the lounge for half an hour.

The alarm clock rang, and he sat up in a daze, only to find that he had received a message from Sui Yang.

Sui Yang took pictures of his school and said it was really beautiful. Xie Min called him and Sui Yang quickly picked it up.

"What are you doing at my school?" Xie Min asked.

Sui Yang said "accept the knowledge of your school".

Xie Min asked him again if he wanted to go to a restaurant, Sui Yang said "No", "It's not interesting to be alone."

"Okay." Xie Min said.Maybe it was because he was too tired, or maybe he didn't wake up, Xie Min said to Sui Yang without any emotional intelligence: "If you came to me before, we could go together."

After speaking, he realized that it was not good, but he heard Sui Yang say "I'm sorry" to him.

Sui Yang's voice was very low, Xie Min couldn't hear his emotions, and didn't know why he apologized, but he felt a little heavy and unnecessary in his heart, so he tried hard to liven up the atmosphere and said, "Forget it, anyway, the restaurant can't run away, Wait until the next vacation."

After hanging up the phone, Xie Min sat on the bed for a while.

His lounge is neither too big nor too small. There is a 1.8-meter bed, and there is a door leading to his utility room opposite the bed.

Xie Min didn't often sleep in the rest room before, and he never went into the utility room. It was Chi Yuan and Tan's assistant who tidied it up for him.Perhaps it was because he really wanted to avoid work that day, he looked at the door of the utility room, paused for a moment, got out of bed, opened the door and walked in.

The utility room is about [-] square meters, divided into two sides, one side is the cloakroom, where he puts his spare clothes, and the other side is a wooden locker with a glass door, with several rows of shelves, where he organizes the gifts from his partners.

The gift has a full five years, although Chi Yuan divided them neatly according to the year, it still seems a bit much.

Xie Min stood in front of the glass, looking up and down at the presents like visiting an exhibition.

When he first joined the company, there were not so many birthday presents. On the innermost shelf, there were gift boxes or bags of various brands from top to bottom, with the labels of the givers on them.

He looked carefully, and there was a somewhat large flat box at the bottom of the cabinet, wrapped in gray gift paper, without any brand logo, Xie Min somehow opened the door of the cabinet, and took out the box to have a look.

In order to make a record of the gift, Chi Yuan unpacked it, but he opened it with a paper knife. The packaging was well preserved without any damage.

This gift comes from an international joint venture elevator company in Yuhai City, which has cooperated with Wanzhuang Real Estate once or twice.

For some reason, Xie Min's heartbeat suddenly became a little faster for no reason. He felt that he was thinking too much, like a teenager who just fell in love. Maybe the box was actually the elevator model customized by the other party.

But he still didn't take the gift list on the side, and opened the box according to the traces of Chi Yuan's dismantling. There was another box inside the wrapping paper, which was white. Xie Min opened the box and saw a painting inside. .

The painting is not too big, about sixty by eighty centimeters, and it is mounted in a very ordinary wooden frame.It is not a realistic style, black and white tones, the painting is a very simple bust of a boy, lying on the desk as if asleep.There is nothing special about the table and the scene, and I can’t tell where it is, but the character is Xie Min.

The painter did not leave a signature, only the time. The time when Xie Min first joined the job was the time when the painting was delivered, and the signing date was nine years ago.

Xie Min took out the gift list and looked at it. The gift category written by Chi Yuan was painting and artwork.

Xie Min put the painting on the carpet in the storage room, and looked at other gifts that the elevator company gave him in previous years.

The merchant also gave him a new mobile phone. After Xie Min read the gift list, he handed it over to Tan Sichen, who was using an old mobile phone of the same brand. This was recorded in the gift list.

He gave Xie Min a suit, which was of high value, but Xie Min didn't like wearing things given by others, so Chi Yuan helped him hang them in the cloakroom on the other side for later use, and he never opened them once to look at them.

Xie Min gave him a suite vacation voucher from a seven-star island hotel, and Xie Min gave it to his vice president, Jian Liqun, as one of the gifts for the wedding and honeymoon.

Xie Min is used to giving away his birthday presents everywhere, so the merchants left in the storage room are only suits and paintings.Xie Min thought for a long time, went to the cloakroom, searched for a long time, finally found the suit Sui Yang gave him, opened it and looked, it was light gray, not very business-like.

Standing in front of the closet, Xie Min wondered in his heart whether Sui Yang had some brain problems, why he was more unwilling to communicate properly than him.

His cell phone rang, and when he picked it up, Chi Yuan said that the chairman had come to the company and would be there soon.

Xie Min hung up the phone, stood there for a while, looked at the weekend itinerary, and bought a ticket to the city where the school is located at night.
