Strangers Ten Years Later

Lin Jin originally thought that he would spend this year alone. After all, Ye Ziyuan had just had a fiancé, so he had to go home to explain to his parents, and then spend the grand festival worth celebrating with his partner.

But he didn't expect that at nine o'clock in the evening, Ye Ziyuan came and knocked on the door.

The moment he opened the door, seeing Ye Ziyuan, he was stunned: "Why are you here?"

"Why can't I come?" Ye Ziyuan folded his hands on his chest, "You still have the nerve to say it, but you didn't say anything when you let me go that day, and you didn't reply to me when I gave you confidence for a few days. Why are you so busy with work? Hmm ?”

Lin Jin hurriedly turned on his phone. He hadn't read the news for a long time - he was in no mood to read it after he had a fever, so he naturally ignored all the messages looking for him.

He thought Ye Ziyuan would not look for him.

Ye Ziyuan closed the door, sat on the sofa, saw a half-eaten bowl of noodles on the tea table, and frowned: "You just eat this? It's for Chinese New Year."

"It's fine for one person." Lin Jin continued to pick up the bowl.

Ye Ziyuan snatched the bowl stubbornly, and dumped all the remaining noodles into the trash can, with an attitude that could not be refuted: "I'm not happy to give in to you, I'll order a takeaway, how about hot pot?"

"Who will deliver food during Chinese New Year?" Lin Jin frowned at him.

"Tsk, you still don't believe in your brother Ye's ability?" Ye Ziyuan took out his mobile phone and made a call, then ordered a few words to hang up lazily, and snapped his fingers, "It's done, send it in half an hour Come to see a movie?"

Lin Jin sighed, picked a movie at random and put it on. He hugged the pillow and curled up on the sofa, staring at Ye Ziyuan's face from the corner of his eye, he couldn't hold back and said, "Why are you here?"

"Have you ever done what brother promised you?" Ye Ziyuan said lightly, "I said I would accompany you, don't worry, Ji Cheng can't make trouble with my Wuzhishan. What dare to say?"

Lin Jin was speechless.

I have to say that Ye Ziyuan's sudden appearance finally gave Lin Jin a shot of reassurance. His heart, which had been restless for several days, instantly became alive and calmed down. .

Rare peace.

The hot pot arrived half an hour later, and it was already 11:30 after the two of them finished eating. They smoked and watched the Spring Festival Gala for a while, and it was the second year.

The second year has gone too fast.

The two stood on the balcony and blew the cold wind for a while, the smoke felt very unpleasant on their faces, Lin Jin frowned: "Ji Cheng doesn't dislike you for smoking?"

Ye Ziyuan smiled: "He has nothing to dislike me."

"It's been another year." Lin Jin narrowed his eyes and looked at the round and a half moon. "No one is setting off fireworks now. It's very deserted. It's not like when we were in high school..."

"What's so interesting about fireworks," Ye Ziyuan shook his head and clicked his tongue, "It's just something to deceive people. Girls like it. Is it possible that you, a man, like it too?"

Lin Jin said: "Talking about what you like or don't like, it's just the occasion."

"If you like it, I'll ask someone to put one in. I wish you a happy new year."

"Farewell," Lin Jin shook his head, "Don't cause trouble."

"You're always like this," Ye Ziyuan chuckled softly, "but it's pretty good, unlike those other bastards who eat mine, drink mine, and talk bad things about me behind their mother's back, so ah— —" Ye Ziyuan rubbed Lin Jin's chin, "I've been buddies with you for so many years, and no one else deserves it."

Lin Jin lowered his eyes and didn't meet his gaze.

Ye Ziyuan said: "Lin Jin, when you saw me proposing to Ji Cheng that day, didn't you feel very happy?"

Lin Jin's slack body suddenly stiffened, which was visible to the naked eye. At that moment, he thought a lot in his mind, but he didn't seem to think about anything. He even planned to break the jar. Ye Ziyuan said casually, "Nervous What, I'm not your parents who want to urge you - are you jealous when you see your buddies find happiness? You also want one in your heart?"

Lin Jin couldn't tell what he was feeling.

He breathed a sigh of relief, but it seemed that he was pressed even harder by that stone, and he couldn't even straighten his back.

Ye Ziyuan said: "Tell me about you for so many years, why haven't you opened your mind? Just tell me whoever you like, it doesn't matter if it's a man or a woman, buddies will help you out."

Lin Jin only looked at him, and smiled abruptly. This smile was a little weird. Ye Ziyuan was so stared at by him, he looked away: "What are you looking at me for?"

"It's nothing." Lin Jin looked away.

After a cigarette burned to the end, Ye Ziyuan stretched his waist, stood up, turned and walked towards the living room, Lin Jin stared blankly at his back, and didn't follow for a while.

In a trance, the image on the back seems to overlap with that of a few years ago.

It coincided with 2006, that was the first time Lin Jin heard of Ye Ziyuan's name, and saw Ye Ziyuan's back, just a back view.

At that time, Lin Jin could not have imagined that this man had been entangled with him for so many years, and he was almost in his thirties, and he hadn't escaped from him yet.

It's not that I can't escape, I just don't want to escape.

After the Chinese New Year, the vacation was over, Lin Jin returned to his post, and handed over the design drawings made during the vacation to Su Hua, and the other party transferred the remaining money without saying a word, Lin Jin came to a new year It was a good start and won a good compliment from the boss—that is, Ji Cheng.

Everyone he met when he returned to the office smiled at him and congratulated him.

The little girl even stopped him directly and told him the good news: "Manager Lin, I heard from the people around Mr. Ji that they want to transfer you to the branch as the vice president."

Lin Jin stopped in his tracks: "Don't spread the word about the disappearance."

The little girl had good intentions, but she smiled awkwardly when she heard this, and said, "Oh, oh, yes, I just listened casually, I'm sorry, Manager Lin."

"It's okay." Lin Jin looked away calmly, entered the office, and closed the door.

The sound of discussion outside only penetrated a little into his ears.

"I told you not to tell him, he won't appreciate it..."

"Anyway, treat us to a meal... I didn't expect to..."

……

And so on.

Lin Jin smiled, put down the document, sat on the chair for a while, and made a summary by himself, no wonder he couldn't be a good employee like Ji Cheng, which his superiors and subordinates liked.

I heard that Ji Cheng has a very good reputation in the company, and the rumors and rumors at the beginning were all lost to his later actual actions.

Lin Jin turned on the computer, stared at the work sent by Ji Cheng for a while, and then started to deal with the work.

When it was time to get off work, Lin Jin stretched his waist, only to realize that there was a lot of noise outside, and it seemed that something had happened.

He turned off the computer, frowned and pushed open the door. The people outside were chattering about something. Seeing Lin Jin coming out, they all stopped talking.

Lin Jin asked casually, "What's the matter?"

Everyone looked at each other in dismay, as if they didn't know whether to speak or not.

Lin Jin looked at the time: "It's time to get off work."

The little girl who had kindly told Lin Jin about his promotion was the first to stand up and said, "Manager Lin, there is a commotion in the lobby downstairs."

"Oh?" Lin Jin raised his eyebrows, "What's the trouble?"

"Yes...it's Mr. Ji's business," the little girl said awkwardly, "yes...yes..." She hesitated, her face flushed from suffocation, she didn't know whether she should say it or not, probably because she really liked it. Embarrassed, standing next to her, an old employee with a little more seniority stepped forward and took up the conversation: "A little boy came to work when he was about to get off work, and said he wanted to settle accounts with Mr. Ji, but he didn't say what was going on when he asked him. , After tossing until just now, I said that Mr. Ji... ahem, it was the man who seduced him, so he came to arrest Xiaosan."

Lin Jin was startled: "What?"

It was rare to see Lin Jin's restless expression, and the little girl continued, "After asking, I found out that the boy is our boss... Cough cough, the people around me now, I want to talk about the rumor that Mr. Ji was adopted before I came here." , and it’s not just chasing after the wind and shadow.”

Someone answered in a low voice: "No wonder such a high position is airborne."

Lin Jin glanced at the time again, then went back to the office to pack his things, and said, "It's time to get off work, you all should get off work first, don't talk nonsense about this, just pretend you didn't see anything."

Everyone agreed in twos and threes. Lin Jin packed up his things and went downstairs. As soon as he got out of the elevator door, he saw a noisy crowd in the lobby surrounded by security guards. Ji Cheng stood with his back straight in embarrassment The position in the center, and beside him, the one who is gesticulating and flaunting his might is not Ke Zhun, who else could it be?

Lin Jin quickly found a place to hide before Ke Zhun saw him.

There was still arguing over there, and Ke Zhun almost rolled on the ground, yelling at a high voice: "Shameless-you dare to throw me out for snatching my husband, I think you are a bit shameless, little bitch None!"

That posture is somewhat more powerful than that of a shrew.

Ji Cheng's face was extremely ugly: "I robbed your husband one by one, who is your husband?"

"The boss of your land!" Ke Zhun lied and didn't write a draft, his face was not red and his heart was beating, and he said loudly, "You, Mr. Wei, Wei Yingfeng!"

Hey, I really heard it clearly.

Lin Jin hid in the dark, watching this absurd scene from a distance. Just like that, he saw a familiar figure at the entrance of the hall, and quickly approached. Who could it be?

Ji Cheng and the people who came to the rescue breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a deep voice, "Wei Yingfeng, take care of your people yourself!"

Ke Zhun's expression turned ugly, and he seemed to be turning around to run away. Wei Yingfeng looked at him, lowered his voice, sneered twice, and said word by word, "Stop him."

"This gentleman," Wei Yingfeng said in a deep voice, "May I ask who you are?"

Alas, this scene was really not well acted. As soon as the main character came on stage, Ke Zhun showed his true colors.

Lin Jin was angry and funny, turned around helplessly, searched for a corner, and left quietly.
