Mulberry elm twilight

Two years later

When Sang Jingyu came back from the vegetable market, there were guests at home.He is a neighbor who moved here half a year ago, named Li Chen.When he first met Shen Mu and Sang Jingyu, he asked about the relationship between the two, but Sang Jingyu only said that they were friends because of Shen Mu's scruples. After tidying up, Li Chen announced that he would pursue Shen Mu, and he pursued for half a year.

But in fact, Sang Jingyu couldn't say more, even though he and Shen Mu have been living together, their relationship hasn't changed in any way, it's just a steady flow.Sang Jingyu just kept his promise and guarded Shen Mu, and Shen Mu was indeed trying to believe in Sang Jingyu again, believing that his illness would be cured.Judging from today, two years later, the tumor in Shen Mu's brain has never been getting bigger, but has been shrinking continuously. To get more from Shen Mu, he only needs Shen Mu to be good, if Shen Mu doesn't take the initiative, he will never do anything to him.He stood by Shen Mu's side, day after day, year after year.

"Mr. Sang is back, and I bought some vegetables. I wonder if I can borrow the kitchen for a while?" Li Chen is a man who looks aggressive at first sight.Sang Jingyu knew something about him after he appeared. He is a real estate boss who is extremely confident in everything. He is a man who only believes in himself and has made a breakthrough. It seemed the same, because he had a very well-known ex-lover, so even though he never got a response from Shen Mu, he was still not discouraged at all, and he was even more unwilling to compromise. Neighborhood relations started, and they were invited to dinner a few times before, and now they even bought vegetables and wanted to cook for themselves.

"How embarrassing, let me do it. It's too polite for Mr. Li to come here specially to buy vegetables." Sang Jingyu said to Li Chen with a smile.

Hearing what Sang Jingyu said, Li Chen couldn't help but said, "It's just a rare meal, or is Mr. Sang not used to my cooking?"

What he said was not bad, but the one who was not used to it was not Sang Jingyu, but Shen Mu.For Shen Mu's eating habits, the dishes he cooks are too greasy. Although his cooking skills are good, it's best not to eat them if he can.It's just that Sang Jingyu certainly wouldn't tell Li Chen that, he and Shen Mu didn't intend to let Li Chen know too much, including Shen Mu's condition, so Sang Jingyu said again: "Mr. Li is a guest, It's better to chat with Shen Mu for a while, and I'll call you when I'm done."

After Shen Mu heard it in the living room, she walked up to the aisle and said, "Let Sang Jingyu do it. I'm really embarrassed to ask you to cook after you bought the vegetables."

"What's the matter, but forget it, come to my house to eat next time." Li Chen no longer insisted, but pulled Shen Mu and said: "Since you don't need to cook, then take me to visit your studio."

Speaking of the studio, Shen Mu once worked as a carpenter in a furniture factory. He was originally a sculpture major. A year ago, he was inspired by a crying child who lost his toy and started to make some wooden toys and wooden sculptures. Started making wooden utensils and other gadgets, and received orders one after another.But what he made was handmade work after all, different from that kind of mass-produced goods, for the sake of Shen Mu's health, Sang Jingyu resolutely rejected large-volume orders, and only accepted small orders with a quantity of no more than five pieces.Originally, because it is a handmade work, the unit price can be set as high as it is, as long as someone is willing to pay for it.After going back and forth, a small studio was gradually established, Shen Mu always made some wooden objects or sculptures according to his own interests.As time passed, these works were sold one by one.Sang Jingyu recently told Shen Mu to save some and not to sell them, and they could keep a certain amount for an exhibition. After thinking about it, Shen Mu thought it was good, so she agreed.This is the reason why Li Chen said about visiting the studio. He also bought several pieces of Shen Mu's sculptures. Later, when Shen Mu asked him to come to the house as a guest without using this excuse, Li Chen didn't buy so much. I've been busy, but he said that he will still buy something he likes, and he doesn't know if it's mostly for pleasing, or if he really likes it.Shen Mu let him go, anyway, he knew that Li Chen was not short of this money, and he and Sang Jingyu were not short of this money either.

Sang Jingyu didn't look at the two of them, and went into the kitchen with a bag, along with the vegetables Li Chen bought, but Shen Mu looked back at Sang Jingyu on the way to the studio. At a glance, his expression was thoughtful.

"Mr. Li..."

"Didn't you tell me to call me Li Chen?" Before Shen Mu could speak, Li Chen interrupted him.

The studio is quite tastefully furnished, and the fragrance of wood fills you as soon as you enter.Shen Mu always keeps it neat and tidy every day, and there is often a chair for guests inside, Shen Mu asks Li Chen to sit down, then goes to get the wooden tea box on the shelf, takes out the tea leaves and makes tea for Li Chen.

Not intending to fuss too much about the address, Shen Mu put the tea tray on the small table, and changed his words: "Li Chen, I have something to tell you."

Li Chen was casually taking down a newly carved wooden plate and looking it over carefully, he didn't care, and said in his mouth: "If you have anything to say, just ask, don't be polite to me."

Shen Mu gently shook the teapot, and said to Li Chen: "Li Chen, I have always known your intentions for me, and I am also very grateful, but I told you last time that I don't intend to accept your feelings, sorry .”

Li Chen was taken aback, and looked up at Shen Mu from the plate. He looked a little discouraged, but he still said, "Xiao Mu, I just hope you can give me one chance, just one time, let's try it." , if you have someone you love, I will definitely not be so ignorant and pester you all the time, but you don’t, don’t you? I thought you and Mr. Sang were a couple, but we have known each other for half a year, you know when I found out How happy are you when you guess wrong? My requirements are not high, if you try and find it doesn’t fit, I won’t force you.”

What Li Chen said was very sincere, but whether it was before he met Sang Jingyu, or 13 years later, or now that Sang Jingyu had been with him for two years, Shen Mu couldn't agree, he sighed Said: "Li Chen, the situation between me and him is very complicated. Anyway, I'm sorry, I can't promise you."

Li Chen didn't quite understand why Shen Mu insisted, but he was not in a hurry, he just said: "Forget it, can we not talk about this? After all, we should be friends first, you won't reject me, right?"

Shen Mu knew that Li Chen couldn't accept it for a while, so she shook her head and said with a smile: "If you are a friend, you can ask for it."
