happy seven years

Riemann held two band-aids in his hand.

Surprised by the familiar and long-lost "manman", the Band-Aid was almost crushed and deformed.

Riemann cleared his throat and walked over.

"Paste the blister on your hand."

"Luo Ran said that you still have to rush the draft, lest you get hurt and affect the progress."

"Paste it and come out to eat noodles."

Yin Huaiyan took the Band-Aid, "Got it."

She tore off the sticker of the Band-Aid and stuck it on the two blisters that were no longer obvious.

When Yin Huaiyan came out of the guest room, Riemann was already sitting at the dining table.

Riemann was typing with his mobile phone, and looked up when he heard the movement, "It's not convenient for you to wash your hands, there are disinfectant wipes here, wipe it yourself."

"Aww." Yin Huaiyan walked over obediently, wiped his hands, and sat down in the place where the bowl of noodles had no green onions.

She noticed that the bowl in front of Riemann had green onions.

"Eat it quickly, it won't taste good if it's lumpy." Riemann said again.

Yin Huaiyan didn't respond anymore, she was really hungry, picked up a chopstick of handmade noodles, blew on it, and took a big mouthful.

Hand-rolled noodles are firm, flexible and chewy.

She picked up another piece of stewed beef. The spicy beef neutralized the light noodles and complemented each other perfectly.

After eating more than half a bowl in a row, Yin Huaiyan slowed down.

I haven't seen each other for three years. Manman, who was always frying pans when she entered the kitchen, is already comparable to the master of the noodle shop.

In fact, it is not. Before they separated, Riemann often practiced his cooking skills hard, but he seldom succeeded and mostly failed.

Without experiencing her getting better and better, Yin Huaiyan always felt that there was something missing in her heart.

Riemann finally finished replying to the message, and while putting the phone aside, he glanced at Yin Huaiyan.

Seeing that her bowl was about to bottom out, the corners of Riemann's mouth couldn't help but twitched up, before he lowered his head and ate his share seriously.

After finishing this belated lunch, Riemann took the lead to grab the bowl, preventing Yin Huaiyan from cleaning it up.

She still remembered, when they lived together, one of them cooked while the other washed the dishes.

But Yin Huaiyan obviously didn't intend to wash the dishes.

She just showed the Band-Aid in her hand when Riemann reacted quickly and grabbed the bowl.

The meaning is obvious.

I have an injury on my hand, so I won't rush to touch the water.

"There is warm water over there, pour it yourself. Except for the light blue cup, other cups can be used." Riemann left this sentence and went to wash the dishes in a daze.

It is said to be washing dishes, but in fact it is just putting the dishes in the dishwasher, adding dishwashing liquid and pressing the washing button.

Riemann simply cleaned up the kitchen, and when he came out, Yin Huaiyan was pouring water with a thermos in his hand.

She had no choice but to ignore Yin Huaiyan and take out a bottle of ice water from the refrigerator.

As he walked towards the sofa, Riemann unscrewed the bottle cap and prepared to drink.

Yin Huaiyan had received the water at some point and walked to Riemann's side.

She originally wanted to reach out to stop Riemann, but in the end she only spoke.

"You still drink ice because you have a stomachache?"

Not as confident and angry as in the past, replaced by temptation and hesitation.

Riemann was upset again when he heard it.

But thinking about it carefully, there is nothing wrong with Yin Huaiyan's tone. After all, their current relationship is already quite embarrassing.

Riemann was so angry that he took a big mouthful of ice water, but after swallowing it, he choked and coughed.

"I just like to drink ice." Riemann coughed with red eyes and a hoarse throat, and he did not forget to answer Yin Huaiyan.

"Okay, I... go back to my room to write a manuscript."

"By the way, are you going out tonight? Can you give me a spare key, I have an appointment for dinner with Luo Ran, and I may have to go out later."

Yin Huaiyan held the lid of the thermos cup in his hand. As soon as she approached, Riemann could smell the faint smell of scented tea.

Riemann understood that Yin Huaiyan never liked to drink boiled water. His hobbies were not strawberry yogurt, but all kinds of flower and fruit tea that he brewed himself.

It's been so long, but the taste hasn't changed at all.

"I'll get it for you." Riemann took out a bunch of keys from the bottom drawer of the coffee table and handed them to Yin Huaiyan.

"I also have an appointment in the evening, that is, to have dinner with my mother's friend's daughter. Maybe after dinner, I will watch a movie and go shopping or something."

"Let me tell you how to use the bathroom. After all, we might have a good talk at night, so... we won't come back."

"It's just right, it won't disturb your writing."

Yin Huaiyan lowered his head, showing no expression.

It took about tens of seconds before she answered yes.

He said that he was talking about the use of the bathroom, but Riemann still introduced all the equipment that Yin Huaiyan might use in the room, as well as the specific methods of use.

It's not like taking in a temporary tenant, but rather like Yin Huaiyan needs to live here permanently.

Yin Huaiyan listened carefully the whole time, nodding behind Riemann all the way.

Riemann was very satisfied with her cute attitude.

"Then I'll go back to my room to catch up on sleep, you can do whatever you want."

Riemann closed the door, leaned his back against the door, and let out a long sigh of relief.

She didn't know if Yin Huaiyan had noticed it, but when she talked to Yin Huaiyan several times just now, her fingers trembled slightly uncontrollably, and her teeth were also clenched when she spoke.

God knows how much effort she took to control herself, with a peaceful appearance on the surface.

Nor was it a lie to say that he might not come back at night.

It's just that Riemann was afraid that he couldn't help himself, and rushed to the next room in the middle of the night to do something irrational to Yin Huaiyan.

Sitting on the carpet in the bedroom until it was dark, Riemann got up to tidy up and walked out of the room.

A desk lamp lit up in the corner of the living room, Riemann walked over, and there was a post-it note with writing on it.

——I'm going out, see you tonight.

Riemann saw him several times in those three nights, and couldn't tell what Yin Huaiyan meant for a while.

She simply picked up the note, stuffed it into her backpack, and went out.

It was the evening rush hour, and Riemann did not choose to drive by himself, but took a vehicle to arrive at the restaurant he had made an appointment with Tan Sissi.

The seat was reserved in advance, and when she arrived, she learned that Tan Qianqian was still on the way, so she simply waited at the door.

By the way, I started to conceive the cover and illustration layout of "Wu Wang".

"I'm sorry Manman, the road is a bit congested, I'm late." Tan Qianxi apologized when she saw someone, and only noticed Riemann's outfit when she got closer.

"Wow, Manman, you are so beautiful today! You are even more beautiful than any female star I have ever seen." Tan Qianxi's eyes sparkled.

Riemann put away his phone and smiled back.

"Thank you for the compliment."

Walking to the reserved room with Tan Qianqian, Riemann thought regretfully, even Tan Qianqian had noticed her special outfit today, why Yin Huaiyan didn't respond in the afternoon?

Unlike Tan Qianqian who peeked at her from time to time and showed amazement, Yin Huaiyan didn't even look at her a few times.

But Riemann was not too happy about talking about Sissy's surprise.

On the contrary, such a comparison made Yin Huaiyan feel a little helpless and aggrieved by his calmness.

In the past, Yin Huaiyan also liked to praise herself for being good-looking and beautiful.

In addition to direct compliments, she also writes a lot of words of praise by herself, and makes them into unique book notes for herself.

At that time, Yin Huaiyan's handwriting had already been practiced very beautifully, and the things he wrote were almost comparable to copybooks.

Several times when Riemann received the letter, he almost thought it was printed by Yin Huaiyan.

"Riemann! Look here!"

Riemann's memories were interrupted by enthusiastic voices.

She stopped following the sound and looked over.

Skillful.

It turned out to be Luo Ran and Yin Huaiyan.

Luo Ran was waving to Riemann, and Yin Huaiyan, who was sitting opposite her, also looked at Rieman and Tan Qianqian in surprise.

Riemann is still hesitating whether to directly refuse to say hello.

But Tan Qianqian also discovered Yin Huaiyan.

"Manman, Huayan is sitting opposite that person! Can we go over and say hello?" Tan Qianxi was a little excited, she asked a question, and took Riemann's hand.

In front of so many people, Riemann was embarrassed to shake off, so he had to be held by her awkwardly.

"Well, let's go. It just so happens that we are at the table next to them."

Riemann didn't seem to have any special reaction, and Tan Qianqian walked to Yin Huaiyan's table.

Luo Ran smiled and nodded to Tan Sissi before looking at Riemann.

"Who is this?"

Rieman stared at Yin Huaiyan, trying to see something in her eyes, but Yin Huaiyan also calmly greeted Tan Qianqian.

Riemann gritted his teeth: "A friend."

She didn't plan to say any more after answering this sentence, so she didn't even mention Tan Qianxi's name.

With a sweet smile on Tan Qianqian's face, she was waiting for Riemann to introduce herself, but she didn't wait for a long time.

Just as she was about to explain the situation herself, the waiter at Luo Ran's table started serving food.

Riemann took the opportunity to pull Tan Qianqian back, and said to Luo Ran and Yin Huaiyan: "We are next to you, so I won't disturb your meal."

"Well, it's okay, just go there." Luo Ran replied with a smile, paying attention to Yin Huaiyan's changes from the corner of her eye.

Fortunately, Luo Ran didn't see anything wrong with Yin Huaiyan, so he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Sitting face to face with Tan Qianqian, Riemann was absent-minded.

Having exchanged the basic dishes before, Riemann simply asked Tan Qianqian to order all the dishes by herself.

She sat in her seat the whole time, her mind always drifting towards Yin Huaiyan not far away.

"Manman, who is that opposite Huayan?" Tan Qianqian asked her.

Riemann froze for a moment before recovering.

"Oh, it's an editor of a publishing house. I often draw illustrations for their publishing house, so I know each other."

Tan Qianqian suddenly realized: "So that's it. I wanted to ask you to take me over to sit for a while after eating and see if I can chat. It seems that they may be talking about work, so we won't bother."

Riemann nodded: "Well, we are not familiar with each other, and it will only increase the embarrassment if we pass by."

Tan Xixi: "Okay. Hey Manman, did you come by car?"

Riemann replied: "No, what's the matter?"

"I heard that the sake here is delicious. Shall we try some? Aunt Lu said that you have a good capacity for alcohol, so you should be able to drink sake?"

The degree of sake is not too strong, and it is within Riemann's acceptance range, so he agreed.

I don't know if it was Riemann's illusion, but after I agreed, Tan Qianqian's eyes lit up a lot.

Luo Ran is a typical gourmet lover, so the restaurant she chooses is naturally not too bad.

People like Yin Huaiyan, who are usually picky eaters, can eat until they are seven to eighty percent full.

It's just that during the meal, Yin Huaiyan lost his mind a few times when he heard the two people at the next table talking happily.

Tan Sissi is sometimes similar to her younger self, and she is more enthusiastic than herself.

Being able to drink with Riemann shows that he is also in good health.

Unlike myself, when they were together, they were always sick, which dragged Riemann down, and made her have to distract herself from taking care of herself.

Speaking of choosing to leave at the beginning, the body also accounted for part of the reason.

Just seeing her laughing and laughing with others, my heart still can't help but hurt.

"This tea is good for the stomach, do you want to try it?" Luo Ran put the cup in front of Yin Huaiyan.

Then he leaned forward and said to Yin Huaiyan in a low voice: "I came to this restaurant with Riemann for dinner before, she likes to drink this very much, maybe you will like it too."

Yin Huaiyan picked up the cup and put it in front of her, the tea fragrance in the cup lingered up and wrapped around the tip of her nose.

It is indeed... the scent I like.

"Why do you think I like it too?" Yin Huaiyan asked Luo Ran.

"Because every time Riemann gets drunk, she always talks about her ex-girlfriend's preferences and tastes over and over again."

"I asked her why, and she said that her ex-girlfriend has been used to relying on her for so many years. After leaving her, Riemann will definitely have a bad life, and then come back to her pitifully."

Luo Ran looked towards Riemann, "It's just that she said this for three years, and her ex still didn't come to her."

"Oh yes, if she continues to drink like this, she will get drunk soon."
