Wu Wan

When Zhao Duobao woke up, it was already noon the next day. Jiang Yi sat by the bed and watched over him. When he saw him wake up, he hurried over to him, "I bought you porridge. You should drink some warm stomach first."

Zhao Duobao raised his eyes to look at Jiang Yi, propped himself up and leaned against the head of the bed, Jiang Yi was carrying porridge to feed him, but Zhao Duobao avoided it, "You leave it alone, I will drink it myself."

Jiang Yi hesitated for a while, then let it go resentfully.

Zhao Duobao didn't reach out for the phone, but picked up the phone.

There is a WeChat message from Jiang Shuowang on his mobile phone, which was sent this morning, and the content is very simple, just one sentence.

"Xiaobao, Jiang Yi is your boyfriend?"

He guessed that Jiang Shuowang would continue to investigate, but he didn't expect to move so fast

Zhao Duobao didn't deny it, "I really don't know about this matter."

"I believe in you, but out of the principle of confidentiality, I don't have to hold you accountable, and I can't continue to use you."

"Well, I understand."

"I will remit this month's salary to your card when the time comes, and there will be another sum of money as my compensation for dismissing you."

The entertainment industry is a place where there are no secrets. Today, Jiang Shuowang dismissed him because of his relationship with Jiang Yi. Tomorrow, it may spread throughout the circle. He will no longer be able to stay in the circle. Just imagine which star will accept him The staff and the illegitimate fan fell in love.

And all his savings have been used to repay the debts. Now that he has lost his job, he really needs money. Jiang Shuo forgot to promise him the reward, and he couldn't refuse it at all.

"thank you boss."

Putting down the phone, Zhao Duobao took a sip of the porridge on the bedside, and Jiang Yi looked at him expectantly.

"Jiang Yi." Zhao Duobao lowered his head, the mist rising from the hot porridge covered his face, "I was fired."

"Now that I have money, I can take care of you first." Jiang Yi blurted out without thinking.

Zhao Duobao buried half of his face in the bowl, and sneered at an angle that Jiang Yi couldn't see, "Okay."

"Really, really?" Jiang Yi looked at Zhao Duobao in disbelief, blinking desperately, trying to confirm that this was not a dream.

"You didn't intend to let me go anyway, did you?"

"I'm not." Jiang Yi's anxiety was written all over his face, "I really like you, I just want you to give me another chance and let me make up for you."

"Then can you stop taking secret photos of Jiang Shuo again?"

Jiang Yi's expression changed in an instant, and he remembered what happened last night. He was suppressed and did not dare to attack. Zhao Duobao glanced at him, knowing it well, "I don't like him. I told you. It's your behavior itself. It's not right."

"Do you like me?"

Zhao Duobao didn't speak, he blew the cold porridge and put it in his mouth.

"You said before..."

"It's what you think it is."

Zhao Duobao couldn't answer this question. After Jiang Yi had caused him so much harm, how could he say without any grudges that he still couldn't let go completely.

But this answer obviously didn't satisfy Jiang Yi. Zhao Duobao saw that he opened his mouth several times to ask something, but he held it back, and finally lowered his eyes, "I rented a house."

Zhao Duobao's hand shaking the spoon, turned his head to look at Jiang Yi, who was staring at the ground at his feet without noticing himself, "I'll help you move tomorrow, okay?"

"Oh."

Jiang Yi smiled bitterly, his tone pretending to be relaxed, "I'll take it as your consent."

The newly rented house is still near Jiang Yi School, which is a relatively new elevator complex.The house was much bigger than before, more than 80 square meters, very spacious with two bedrooms and two living rooms. Jiang Yi helped Zhao Duobao move everything into the master bedroom, and moved to the second bedroom by himself.

Why didn't he want to be able to sleep with Zhao Duobao again, but obviously, Zhao Duobao couldn't accept it, he didn't dare to do any more persecution, he just hoped that the relationship between the two could be repaired in this only opportunity , Even if you start from scratch now, it is better than meeting strangers.

This time Zhao Duobao didn't say anything, but quietly packed his things. When he bent over to make the bed, he glanced at Jiang Yi who was busy in the living room from the gap between his arms, feeling a little blocked.

After having dinner at the restaurant downstairs and taking a shower, they each went into their rooms.

In the middle of the night, Zhao Duobao was awakened by the urge to urinate.

When passing by the living room, I saw Jiang Yi standing on the balcony wearing thin home clothes, facing the light, I could still see the muscle lines covered by the clothes, slender and fit.

With his back facing him, Jiang Yi held a cigarette between the index and middle fingers of his right hand, and the sparks from the cigarette flickered on and off.

Jiang Yi raised his hand close to his mouth, took a puff, and smoke rings floated out from the side of his face, forming a dense cloud in the air.

He leaned slightly sideways, lazily leaning against the railing, half of his face was exposed, the cold moonlight shone on him, the contours of his facial features were outlined in a circle of silver, his lips spit out lightly, a ball The smoke drifted into the distance along the wind.

After smoking a cigarette, Jiang Yi twisted his two fingers, bent his index finger and pressed the cigarette butt that was not completely extinguished.

Turning around, he met Zhao Duobao's eyes.

"It bothered you?"

"I got up and went to the bathroom."

"Ah."

"you do not sleep?"

"Can't sleep, go to sleep, I'll sit for a while, I won't disturb you."

Zhao Duobao remembered that Jiang Yi had been repeatedly talking to him about his insomnia because of him before, and persuaded him bluntly, "Go to bed early, it's not good to sleep too late."

"Yeah." Jiang Yi sat down on the sofa, threw the cigarette butt into the trash can next to him, and showed a reassuring smile, "Come in, I'll go to sleep when you fall asleep."

Zhao Duobao hesitated to speak, finally nodded and entered the room.

When Zhao Duobao got up together the next day, Jiang Yi was already in the kitchen wearing an apron, and the scent wafted out, making Zhao Duobao very greedy.After washing up, two fried eggs and a few slices of toast were already set on the dining table.

Jiang Yi stood by the table and smiled at him, "I don't know how to cook, so I just fried two eggs, and it's not bad to spread some sauce on toast."

Zhao Duobao was a little uncomfortable with such a "virtuous" Jiang Yi, and was taken aback for a while. Jiang Yi thought he didn't want to eat, so his smile became a little stiff, and he laughed twice, "If you don't like it, there is also one downstairs." I'll buy you another breakfast."

"Do not waste."

Zhao Duobao sat down at the table, and according to what Jiang Yi said, took two slices of toast with a fried egg between them, and took a bite.

"Is it tasty?"

"not bad."

"I'll go to class later, there's food in the refrigerator, cook whatever you want, I'll come back for lunch." After a pause, he added, "Remember to cook my meal."

Zhao Duobao glanced at him, "You don't have to do this, I'm not used to it." He lowered his head and ate the last bite of toast.

"I'm afraid you don't want me again." Jiang Yi's tone was aggrieved and helpless.

Zhao Duobao's heart trembled, he casually picked up the cup next to him, brought it to his mouth only to find it was empty, so he had to put it down again, "Go to class."

Not long after Jiang Yi went out, Zhao Duobao also took his bank card and went out.

A few days ago, his grandmother asked someone to send him a text message, saying that his mother was not in good health recently and was getting thinner and thinner. He was worried that the money left last time was not enough, so he planned to send some more to his grandmother's house. It happened that Jiang Shuo forgot Promises that his reward has already been remitted to the card.

In the past, he taught his father to use a bank card to withdraw money, and he only needed to transfer money through online banking. Now he can only send money to the post office.

After the matter was settled, I happened to run into Jiang Yi downstairs who was coming home from get out of class for dinner.

"Where have you been?" Jiang Yi sized up Zhao Duobao, and the ending sound improved slightly because of doubts.

Zhao Duobao looked unhappy, walked into the elevator, stood close to the innermost corner, and looked at the LED screen with constantly beating numbers.

Jiang Yi walked over to him and softened his tone, "If you don't want to talk, I won't ask."

When the elevator reached the designated floor, Zhao Duobao went straight out, leaving Jiang Yi unable to react in time and almost being caught by the elevator door.

During the meal, Zhao Duobao, who had been silent since entering the door, suddenly asked Jiang Yi a question, "Do you still remember the time when you were so drunk that you asked me to have a relationship with you?"

Jiang Yi nodded hesitantly.

"What happened to you that day?"

In fact, he didn't mean anything else, but the scene of Jiang Yi helping him while cooking was too familiar, and he inadvertently thought of many things in the past, and this question popped up.

"Why, what's the matter?" Jiang Yi hesitated and didn't know what to say, and looked at Zhao Duobao's face several times.

"Just ask casually, it's okay if you don't want to say, I probably know."

Zhao Duobao took a piece of beef with his chopsticks, and took another mouthful of rice.

Jiang Yi hesitated for a long time, then gritted his teeth and said, "I was rejected." After finishing speaking, he hurriedly explained, "That was before, and I will never be such an asshole again. Besides, I should have already I like you, but I don't know..."

"It's about the same as I guessed."

Jiang Yi repeatedly confirmed that Zhao Duobao's expression was not unusual before he breathed a sigh of relief and emptied the bowl of rice indiscriminately.

There was no class in the afternoon, so Jiang Yi found a movie, projected it on the empty wall with a newly bought projector, and sat down on the carpet with Zhao Duobao. The ever-changing movie screen brings bright or dark light.

Zhao Duobao leaned on Jiang Yi's shoulder. At first he was awkward and wanted to get up, but Jiang Yi hugged him firmly. The two fought for a while. Zhao Duobao was so tired that he simply relaxed his body and enjoyed the human back.

It would be a very romantic affair if all had not happened yet.People who love each other lean on each other, watch others love and hate parting, look at each other and smile when they resonate, and then kiss and hug with joy.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing.

In such a comfortable afternoon in summer, it is easy to get sleepy. Zhao Duobao fell into a drowsy sleep before the movie was halfway through.When I woke up again, I found myself lying on my side on the sofa, covered with a blanket, the curtains had been drawn, and the light was restored in the room.The balcony door above the head was wide open, and there was an evening breeze blowing in, mixed with some indistinct sounds.

Zhao Duobao stood up, looked up at the direction of the balcony, and Jiang Yi was leaning on the door frame to make a phone call.

"...This matter has nothing to do with me..."

"...Didn't I give you the money..."

"...Don't worry, they have no evidence to sue you..."

"...As long as you bite to death without knowing it, no one can do anything to you..."

"...I'm warning you, if you try to kill the fish, you won't end well..."

Jiang Yi was emotional, and his voice became louder and louder, but with Jiang Yi's back turned to him, Zhao Duobao still couldn't hear it clearly. It seemed that he had a dispute with someone, and before the other party finished speaking, he was angry. Hang up the phone.

Seeing Jiang Yi turning his head to look this way, Zhao Duobao quickly crouched down, pretending to have just woken up.
