After rebirth, I became the boss's little heart

Now that Li Jiawen brought the dumplings, Chi Xu stopped delaying. He heated up the leftovers from lunch and went downstairs to set off firecrackers.

The TV at home is a model from more than ten years ago. Chi Xu held up the antenna and searched for a signal in the living room for a long time, but in the end he only heard the Spring Festival Gala but not the Spring Festival Gala people.

But for Chi Xu, having a voice is enough. After all, he doesn't want to make himself look too bleak on New Year's Eve when the Wan family is reunited.

After eating, Chi Xu packed up the hot leftovers and leftover dumplings by the kitchen window. The space in the refrigerator is too small. If you want to put all the dishes in, you have to stack them together. It is unhygienic. The temperature in the house is low, so put one or two by the window. It won't go bad if it's hot, and you should be able to eat it tomorrow night, and the rest is just right in the refrigerator.

So far, Chi Xu felt that he had a good New Year's Eve.

But there are still two and a half hours before the twelve o'clock bell strikes.

It's a bit tough.

Colleagues would not call to pay New Year's greetings at this time, and Chi Xu didn't have any close relatives. He was sitting on the wooden sofa, listening to the cross talk on TV, but staring at the phone intently.

At this time, Zhao Ruihuai should be having a New Year's Eve dinner, and he will go to worship his ancestors later, and he will stay with his parents all night.

So he can't call.

Chi Xu restrained the thoughts that kept surging in his heart, but the itch came out between his fingers.

He wants to smoke a cigarette.

At this time, there is no need to endure it any longer.

Chi Xu stood up and opened the cabinet in the living room, which contained cigarettes and alcohol for going to the grave tomorrow.

"Dad, smoke your cigarette, don't be angry with me."

The natural response to him was silence.

Chi Xu's bedroom is very small, but there is a closed balcony with a desk for children. If Chi Xu was disobedient when he was a child, the "head teacher" would lock him in the balcony and punish him to copy the text, which was later used as a Put away the waste products that grandpa picked up.

Now that Zhao Ruihuai cleaned it, he could even lick the white tiles on the wall.

Before the smell of disinfectant dissipated, Chi Xu opened the double windows, and the cold wind with the smell of gunpowder involuntarily poured in. He lay on the window sill, poked his head out to watch the fireworks, and lit the cigarette between his fingers at the same time.

Suffocating, the window on the side was also opened.

Chi Xu squinted his eyes and turned his head to see Li Jiawen smiling at him.

Chi Xu also laughed.

The "head teacher" didn't know that every time he was locked up on the balcony to copy the text, Li Jiawen would knock on the window of his house with a ruler, just like a signal, he would climb on the window sill on a stool, or crawl into the window. Playing with Li Jiawen in the anti-theft window.

Chi Xu didn't remember what they played back then, but he still remembered the carefree feeling.

"When did you learn to smoke?" Li Jiawen asked him.

Chi Xu knocked on the cigarette ash, just like when he was a child, and smiled very sweetly, "I've forgotten it a long time ago."

Li Jiawen paused, then said, "Shall we go to the grave tomorrow?"

"Hmm." Maybe it was because the time passed by alone was too slow, Chi Xu wanted to chat with Li Jiawen for a while, Li Jiawen was not good at words, so he took the initiative to bring up a topic that would not be cold, "What are you going to do in the capital?" work"

"logistics."

Chi Xu raised his eyebrows, "The prospect of the logistics industry is very good. I remember you studied logistics management in college."

Li Jiawen nodded with a smile, "That's right, in fact, I also really wanted to take the entrance exam for the Department of Management at the National University of Minnesota, but the scores were not enough."

Li Jiawen is good at reading, but because the college entrance examination was too nervous, he didn't show his usual level. He only got into a university in Shijiazhuang. Song Meiqiu compared him with Chi Xu everywhere. Unacceptable, if Li Jiawen had to repeat the study, Li Jiawen's class teacher in the third year of high school took the initiative to talk to her, saying that Li Jiawen was under great psychological pressure and was not suitable for repeating the study, and that was the end.

Chi Xu heard these things from his grandfather.

Grandpa said that Li Jiawen is a good seedling, but it's a pity that he didn't find a good mother.

"It doesn't matter, diplomas are not very important." Chi Xu is telling the truth. Compared with the large number of outstanding graduates who are hard to find a job seven years later, this year is not bad.

But Li Jiawen probably took his words as comfort, and his smile was a bit bitter, so Chi Xu stopped talking about this topic, "You go to work in the capital, does Aunt Song agree?"

Li Jiawen looked at him and shook his head, "I plan to tell her after I'm sure, otherwise she'll say I'm too ambitious."

So high-minded is very nice.

According to Song Meiqiu's way of speaking, it should be, you are a wimp, you can't get along in Hengshui, and you still want to go to the capital

"Aunt Song is old, don't take what she said to heart."

Chi Xu also has a lot of beautification in terms of language, he even wants to say, you just treat her talking as fart.

"Ok, I know"

To say that Li Jiawen is not good at words is the same as to praise him. He is simply a topic stopper. Chi Xu threw away the cigarette butt that had been stubbed out, and had no energy to continue chatting with him. However, before he could say goodbye, the cell phone rang after the silence of the night stand up.

Chi Xu didn't hide his joy. He took out his mobile phone, saw the name displayed on it, and smiled even brighter, "Hello."

"have you eaten"

Health Commissioner and Inspector of Three Meals a Day.

"Finished."

"Oh, what are you doing now?"

Chi Xu glanced at Li Jiawen who was waiting for him to finish his phone call at the window, and reported with a smile, "Watch the fireworks."

Zhao Ruihuai was silent for a while, and said a little dissatisfied, "Why don't you want to talk to me when I ask a question and you answer it?"

"No." Chi Xu quickly denied it, but he was really strange. He claimed to be eloquent and not a topic stopper, but he couldn't talk eloquently to Zhao Ruihuai on the phone.

Maybe it was because he was full of love and longing in his heart, and he was afraid that his mouth would overflow.

Zhao Ruihuai was not afraid, "I miss you."

Chi Xu was slightly taken aback, he didn't expect Zhao Ruihuai to be so direct.

He didn't know that Zhao Ruihuai really missed him.

Been thinking about it all night.

As long as he thinks of Chi Xu being alone on New Year's Eve, he feels as if a cat is scratching his heart, blood dripping from the scratching, and then he is thrown into the cold deep well, painful, suffocated, and sore.

He was about to die of pain, so he sneaked into the yard to make this call.

"Do not you miss me"

Facing Li Jiawen's probing eyes, Chi Xu's cheeks blushed slightly, even though he was embarrassed to express his emotions in front of acquaintances, but he was even more reluctant to let Zhao Ruihuai down, "I miss you, I miss you so much. "

Zhao Ruihuai's pain was not relieved by these words, but worsened. He walked around the yard with his mobile phone, wishing that Chi Xu would appear in front of him immediately.

People are weird.

Obviously, he didn't think it was a big deal for Chi Xu to spend New Year's Eve alone as an adult. He was very satisfied with his reasonable arrangements before, but when things came to an end, he regretted Chi Xu. Zhao Ruihuai didn't know where his impulsiveness came from. She had to throw everything away to find Chi Xu so that she could hold him tightly in her arms.

but he can't go away

"Rarity, what are you doing in the yard? Uncle is calling"

"Okay, I'll go right away." Zhao Ruihuai took a deep breath and said softly, "I'm sorry."

"It's okay, go ahead, I'm hanging up." Chi Xu's mind was very peaceful, he put away his phone, and smiled embarrassedly at Li Jiawen who was still waiting.

Half of Li Jiawen's face retreated into the darkness, "Girlfriend?"

"Well, it is."

"how did you guys meet"

Chi Xu remembered the beam of light shining from behind him at the welcome party, and said with a smile, "He is also from the University of Minnesota, and we are colleagues now."

The fireworks are gorgeous in the night, and jealousy bites people in the dark.

Because Song Meiqiu pushed the door open, Chi Xu didn't chat with Li Jiawen for too long, he was a little sleepy after a day of tossing around, and climbed into bed early after washing up.

His New Year's Eve is over long ago, and the ringing of twelve o'clock means nothing to him.

There was constant sound of fireworks and firecrackers, and the sound insulation of the old building was poor. Chi Xu was so noisy that he couldn't sleep, so he simply took out his earphones to listen to Zhao Ruihuai's breathing just like last night.

I fell asleep after a while.

It's just that he didn't sleep well, and he dreamed of his youth again.

During the summer vacation after graduating from junior high school, my grandfather had a broken arm and had difficulty moving with a plaster cast.

He was in the kitchen thinking about what to have for dinner when Li Jiawen knocked on the door.

"Xiaoxu, you've hit the key points of the IPO exam"

Chi Xu looked at him indifferently, thinking in his heart, he can finally get rid of that bitch your mother.

"It's a pity that we can't go to school together in the future, I didn't pass the exam"

"It doesn't matter, our university will definitely be able to take the exam together"

"When the time comes, we will rent a house together, and my mother won't be able to control me anymore."

bang bang

Song Meiqiu came to knock on the door, "What a fool, why are you running around while you're not at home reading to me?"

Li Jiawen's excited expression gradually became distorted, and finally turned into pitch blackness.

Chi Xu opened his eyes and was shaken by the incandescent lamp on the ceiling.

bang bang

Someone really is knocking on the door.

Chi Xu squinted his eyes and glanced at the phone, the time was displayed at 03:30 in the morning.

He guessed who would be standing outside the door almost instantly.

Chi Xu threw off the quilt and ran to the entrance barefoot. He opened the door, and before he could see Zhao Ruihuai's face clearly, he fell into a cold embrace.

Zhao Ruihuai is so cold.

Chi Xu just woke up, couldn't help shivering, but couldn't bear to break free, but hugged him even tighter, wishing to get into his flesh and blood, as if he had become one.

After a long time, he heard Zhao Ruihuai ask with some doubts, "Do you think I'm crazy?"

"No."

"Don't you think that people who are on the verge of three will do such a thing."

"do not think so."

Zhao Ruihuai rubbed his hair and muttered to himself, "I think I'm crazy, you know, I drank, I drank on the highway, and drove so fast, it's not like me I can do something, but I don’t know why, I just want to see you very much.”

Chi Xu also felt that he was crazy.

Because at the moment Zhao Ruihuai hugged him, what he thought was that if one day, Zhao Ruihuai really wanted to marry a woman, he would die at Zhao Ruihuai's wedding, and he would drain every drop of blood on his body, so that The bride's wedding dress turns red.

He didn't allow it, this kind of Zhao Ruihuai belonged to someone else.
