Do not lie to me

Shang Xuechen was sitting in the car playing with the lighter, and the flame lit up and then went out with the movements of his hands.He just sat and watched quietly.

Brother Zhou sent Jia Jia to the bridal shop and returned to the car. He saw Shang Xuechen sitting silently playing with a lighter, with a worried expression on his face, and he reached out to snatch the lighter from him. Mine, you pay me back."

Shang Xuechen was quick and hid the lighter in his pocket before Brother Zhou snatched it, "Stingy, why don't you lend me to play for a while?"

Brother Zhou is not stingy, he is afraid, he is afraid that one day Shang Xuechen will suddenly go crazy again, just like when he saw Shang Xuechen holding a knife in the casino.Brother Zhou didn't say anything, but insisted on asking Shang Xuechen to return the lighter, "Give it back to me, this lighter is so precious!"

Shang Xuechen stretched out his arm to avoid Brother Zhou's hand coming to take out his pocket, and changed the subject by the way, "Oh, your wedding is arranged in such a hurry, is it going to work? Ji Shuping said that the venue was arranged with great difficulty. Usually, the hotel park It’s not that easy to arrange.”

Brother Zhou was indeed successfully transferred by Shang Xuechen, "Although the venue he arranged was a bit rushed, but Jiajia and I went to see it, and she really liked it. As long as Jiajia likes it, I have no objection."

"Yeah. Ji Shuping paid for you to arrange the venue and even the layout for you. He said that it would save Jiajia the trouble, and it happened that the flowers were also ordered. It was the same flower shop as last time. He said let's go and have a look today." The boss is making a sample, you go with me, and take pictures of the flower door, the bouquet, etc. for Jia Jia to see. She must be satisfied."

Brother Zhou rubbed his hands in embarrassment, "He's quite thoughtful." As he said that, Brother Zhou took out a red-backed bronzing invitation card from his arms.

Shang Xuechen looked at it and smiled, "Hey, why are you still being so polite to me?" He was about to reach for the invitation, but Brother Zhou avoided it, "It's not for you, it's for you to bring it to him." Yes. I thought he is an upper-class person, so it’s better to be more formal.”

Shang Xuechen rolled his eyes at him, and unceremoniously snatched the invitation from Brother Zhou, "If it's his, it's mine." He opened the invitation as he spoke, and it was nothing more than a few official invitations.Shang Xuechen looked at it and found it meaningless, so he stuffed the invitation into his arms, "Is Jiajia healthy? I think the wedding is only two days away."

Brother Zhou took out another invitation card from his bosom, "Jiajia said yes, I think she is looking forward to it. Besides, she is not very tired, and you have helped a lot."

Shang Xuechen watched Brother Zhou take out another invitation card, smiled and pointed to his nose, "For me?"

Brother Zhou handed him the invitation, "Give this to Qi Liang for me."

Shang Xuechen pursed his lips, "It's not that you don't know him, so you can do it yourself."

"I'd like to give it to him myself." Zhou Ge sighed, "But I can't get through to him. I thought it might be easier for you to find someone from him."

Shang Xuechen took the invitation in his hand, and he hadn't seen Qi Liang for a while, he thought that Qi Liang might need time to clean up his emotions and let his life have a new track.Shang Xuechen touched the invitation card in his hand and asked Brother Zhou, "Jiajia...doesn't mind letting Qi Liang come over?"

Shang Xuechen was a little worried, after all the quarrel between the three of them was so ugly in the past.

Brother Zhou smiled generously, "Jiajia said that they used to be ignorant in adolescence, and children fought petty fights. A little love, love, and jealousy are like big things that will tear your face apart. .In fact, when I look back at this age, I just feel that my ears are red and my face is hot, and I am ashamed to death. She said that she didn’t think about it before, but now she understands the difficulty of others after growing up. Thinking about Qi Liang’s life in the past Well, if he wants to invite him to the wedding venue." Zhou Ge turned his face and said to Shang Xuechen with an embarrassed smile, "After all, you also know that I have few relatives and friends. If Qi Liang is willing to come, I will Just save another money for hiring extras."

Shang Xuechen was teased by Brother Zhou, and he breathed a sigh of relief after laughing, feeling unprecedentedly relaxed, "Then why don't we go to the bar to send invitations to Qi Liang first, and it would be more appropriate for you to hand them to him personally. I guess he is There, Qi Liang stayed in the bar when he had nothing to do."

"Okay." Brother Zhou smiled and released the handbrake, stepped on the accelerator and drove out of the car.

Qi Liang sat on the bed blankly, looked up and saw Shen Ao still guarding the door and sitting on the ground as usual.He turned his head away, only feeling a little annoyed seeing this man.How long has it been since you went out?Qi Liang couldn't remember clearly, anyway, he didn't go out after that day.Only staying in the same space as Shen Ao silently.

The house has not been cleaned for a long time, and it is sloppy.But Qi Liang didn't have the energy to clean it up, he just let the place get dirty and messed up, just like letting Shen Ao look at him without saying a word.Occasionally, she would be jolted awake by Shen Ao in the middle of the night, and when she opened her eyes, she would see Shen Ao pressing on her body.Qi Liang wouldn't push him away, anyway, he didn't think he was a very noble person, pushing Shen Ao away at this time was just making himself more pretentious, and he couldn't push him away either.But he didn't blindly let Shen Ao take what he had, whenever Shen Ao pressed on him in the middle of the night, he would turn over impatiently, lying on the bed with his back facing Shen Ao, because he was tired, tired of Shen Ao With this face, the sweat on his face fell directly onto his own face, and Shen Ao was blurred in his heart.

Qi Liang turned his face to look at the bay window, looked at the tightly drawn curtains, and guessed that it was probably daytime.He had long lost the sense of time, hadn't seen the sun for a long time, and felt a little miss when he thought about it by chance, so in order to test his conjecture, he got out of bed and walked to the bay window.Shen Ao who was sitting on the ground by the door of the room moved / body twice following Qi Liang's feet landing on the ground, and then pressed his back against the door.

Qi Liang didn't care about any of Shen Ao's actions at all, he just wanted to see the sunshine outside and know what time it is and what the weather is like outside.Qi Liang walked to the bay window, stretched out his index finger to open some curtains, and the sunlight just hit his eyes.Qi Liang was stabbed and closed his eyes, lowered the curtains and stood with his head down.His eyes hurt from being pierced by the sun, and he almost cried out, crying that he could no longer adapt to the sun and see the outside world.

Sitting on the ground, Shen Ao leaning against the door looked at Qi Liang who was standing motionless in front of the curtain with his head bowed. After hesitating for a moment, he got up and walked to his side. He stretched out his hand to touch his shoulder, but he only stretched out halfway. But stopped.Qi Liang turned around suddenly, embarrassing Shen Ao, whose hands were hanging in the air.

Qi Liang who turned around didn't even look at him, and just pushed him to the ground with all his strength.Shen Ao sat down on the ground and looked at him, still half-raised his hands in embarrassment, Qi Liang finally focused his eyes on his face.Lifting his foot was about to step on the half-raised hand fiercely, Shen Ao still looked at him like that, and didn't flinch a little because of Qi Liang's movement of raising his foot.He seemed to have anticipated Qi Liang's next move, with only willingness on his face.

Qi Liang stopped and didn't step on Shen Ao's hand, but looked away from the expression on Shen Ao's face, finally tears fell down.Shen Ao's embarrassingly raised hand touched his ankle, and Qi Liang took two steps back in shock.He was not wearing pants, and the buttons of his shirt had been torn to nowhere. His hair was disheveled covering his face, and he could only see the bright tears hanging on his chin, which was especially conspicuous in the dark room.Qi Liang was dressed like this and stood in the messy room, standing in front of Shen Ao who was also dressed in a mess.

Shen Ao raised his head and looked at Qi Liang who couldn't avoid him, tears were vivid and his expression was sad, Shen Ao lowered his head, avoiding his eyes to see the tears on Qi Liang's chin.He didn't know what kind of feeling it was, he only knew that he should bow his head, as if he felt an indescribable shame when he met Qi Liang's eyes, he couldn't explain this feeling, because it was the first time he experienced it in his life.

Qi Liang glanced at Shen Ao who was on the ground with his head bowed, and stepped over him to the door.Shen Ao, who was sitting on the ground, realized that he hurriedly got up and was about to catch up with Qi Liang. When he walked to the living room, he saw that Qi Liang just sat on the sofa, took a piece of pizza on the coffee table, and started eating.

He was just hungry, and he didn't care how hard the pizza in his hand had been in his mouth after a few days.Qi Liang didn't care, he didn't care about anything.The living room is not much better than the inside of the room. The suitcases that were placed in the center of the living room before are still spread out like that, and the clothes inside are still scattered everywhere.Rubbish is everywhere on the ground, and the coffee table is full of all kinds of leftover takeaways.

Qi Liang's eyes fell on the unfinished bowl of soup. The pizza in his hand was dry and hard, which made him choke a little. From the beginning, I saw the mobile phone with the screen lighted up under the takeaway plastic bag.The above shows Shang Xuechen's call.Qi Liang's hands froze.

Shen Ao saw it too, the cell phone lit up was really eye-catching in this dark living room.Shen Ao clenched his fists, but he didn't dare to take a step forward. He was a little worried, because after Qi Liang glanced at the phone screen, his eyes were only on the suitcase spread out in the living room.

Qi Liang put the takeaway bowl in his hand on the phone.He didn't intend to answer the phone, nor did he intend to hang up, he just waited for the phone to hang up by itself, and then there was another missed call notification on the phone screen.The phone screen finally went dark, Qi Liang no longer had the intention of drinking soup, took a bite of the cold pizza in his hand, and then swallowed it, but it was just a pain in his throat.

Shen Ao came over, knelt between his legs, and put his head on Qi Liang's knee.Qi Liang didn't look down, he was almost the same as before, conditioned to reach out and rub Shen Ao's head, treating him like a pet dog, but he managed to hold back.Qi Liang just continued to bite the unbearably hard pizza in his hand, and when he chewed, the crumbs in his mouth fell on Shen Ao's face.

Shen Ao opened his mouth to taste it, it was a bit salty, not as hard as imagined, because he swallowed the crumbs together with the tears falling from Qi Liang's chin.

Shang Xuechen looked down at the phone in his hand, and looked up at the words "Closed for business" on the door.Brother Zhou beside him came over and patted him on the shoulder, "Forget it, this is the third time."

Shang Xuechen sighed at the four words on the door, "There should be nothing wrong."

"He's such an adult, what can he do. Give him time to think for himself."

"That's right, you're right." Shang Xuechen put away his phone, turned around and said to Brother Zhou, "Let's go, let's go to the flower shop to see flowers."

Brother Zhou chased Shang Xuechen desperately and asked, "Oh, why don't you give me back my lighter."

"Let's go, let's go. After seeing the flowers, I have to help you decorate the new house." Shang Xuechen ran to the car, and kept changing the topic without mentioning returning Brother Zhou's lighter.

After Zhou Ge parked the car, he still asked Shang Xuechen for his lighter, "Give it back to me!"

Shang Xuechen didn't reply, got out of the car and went to the flower shop.Brother Zhou hurriedly got out of the car and stopped him, "Do you think I'm being stingy and reluctant to part with my lighter? Do you know that I was mad at that time, and I was worried about you! Return the lighter to me!"

Shang Xuechen shook his shoulders, but Brother Zhou still held onto him tightly. He reluctantly told Brother Zhou, "Don't worry, I won't do dangerous things with your lighter. I just want to practice more."

"Practice?" Brother Zhou looked at him and asked, "What do you practice?"

Shang Xuechen lowered his head and was unwilling to say, but when he looked up at Brother Zhou, he thought that maybe Brother Zhou could help, so he went up to Brother Zhou and said, "Buy for me..."

Brother Zhou turned the corner of his mouth to look at Shang Xuechen, and now he understood why Shang Xuechen insisted on playing with lighters, "You're so funny."

Shang Xuechen raised his eyebrows at him, and while walking towards the flower shop, he said, "You don't understand that. You see, what do I rely on when I chase people, and I rely on this trick .”

Brother Zhou gave him a disdainful look, "Come on, you, I don't think your means are enough in his eyes."

Shang Xuechen didn't care what Brother Zhou said, "What does this mean? It means that I have a good eye and I am very good at people."

The two of you entered the flower shop arguing with each other, and the clerk was about to lead the person into the office, Shang Xuechen glanced at the back door, patted Brother Zhou on the shoulder and said, "Okay, you go in and have a look. I'll take a stroll outside."

Seeing that Shang Xuechen was winking at him, Brother Zhou probably understood in his heart, he just nodded without saying anything, and pretended to be a boss like last time, and was led into the inner office.Shang Xuechen leaned against the cashier counter, as if he was about to chat, and asked the people at the cashier counter, "Oh, our boss ordered a lot of flowers this time. But in time for his wedding, what do you have in your store?" Is there any discount?"

The clerk smiled back at him, "Didn't it come with flower tea and flower cakes as souvenirs for your boss. And there is also a bouquet design service as a special gift."

After hearing this, Shang Xuechen replied nonchalantly, "Isn't this usually delivered by wedding companies?" He glanced at the back door and asked, "There are so many flowers ordered, so you have to be careful when the time comes. The delivery person in your store Is it still reliable?"

"Don't mention it, I haven't seen anyone for a few days. I heard that I quit recently, and our boss has gone to contact other delivery companies."

"Give it up?" Shang Xuechen thought that maybe he was the real drug leader. After Hang Qing's accident, he had to hide for a while, but why did he go to Zhou Yuan?He remembered the day he followed that man to the casino. The man seemed to be paying off his gambling debts. Could it be that he asked Zhou Yuan for money?What's the relationship between Zhou Yuan and him, why did he give him money to pay off his gambling debts, why did he go to Xu Xueshi's casino by such a coincidence, and what about the underground doctor who went in with him later?That underground doctor seemed to have a good face in the casino.And what about the man in black?What the hell is Xu Xueshi doing?

The more Shang Xuechen thought about it, the more confused he became, and he couldn't figure it out. Brother Zhou had already been sent out of the office by Boss Wang.Shang Xuechen saw that Boss Wang's mood became more impetuous, but he cheered up and went forward with a smile.

"Since Mr. Shang is here, why didn't you come into the office together?" Boss Wang asked carefully looking at Shang Xuechen's face.

Shang Xuechen just glanced at Brother Zhou with a smile, and Brother Zhou immediately helped him out, "Oh, I asked him to wait at the door, and he is in charge of being my driver today. Then I have to take me to see the venue. OK , Boss Wang, you are busy. You don’t need to send it.”

Shang Xuechen heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Brother Zhou's concluding remarks so crisply, and quickly helped Brother Zhou to go out, fearing that Boss Wang behind him would drag them to talk for a long time.

After getting into the car, it was Shang Xuechen who drove this time, because Brother Zhou was constantly sending messages to Jiajia, discussing which bouquet to choose.Shang Xuechen was reversing the car, telling Brother Zhou while reversing the car, "Oh, there is still a four-piece bed set bought by Ji Shuping in the trunk. Just treat it as a wedding gift from the two of us."

Brother Zhou raised his eyelids and glanced at Shang Xuechen who was shifting gears, "You said that the aesthetics were picked by Ji Shuping?"

Shang Xuechen chuckled twice, "It should be him who picked it."

Brother Zhou put his phone away and put his arms around his chest, "No matter how I look at it, I think you picked it. You don't want to give this as a gift without giving you a gift money! You won't be given any food then."

"Tsk." Shang Xuechen looked at Brother Zhou contemptuously, "I'm petty, did I say I won't give it? Just kidding, Ji Shuping has a lot of money. Let me tell you, you really make a lot of money by having my friend. Look You don’t need to spend any money to see the venue or anything, and we also include two gift money, in the future we will not be conscious to take back your gift money.”

Hearing his calculations, Brother Zhou really felt that he was making a profit, and laughed amusedly, "It's not necessary to calculate carefully, since everyone has a home, think about it."

Shang Xuechen stepped on the brakes at a red light, and couldn't help sighing, "Home."

His emotion was too soft, Brother Zhou didn't hear it, he just turned around and bit his lower lip and looked at Shang Xuechen.

Shang Xuechen touched his face, pulled down the sun visor and looked at the mirror above, "Why are you staring at my face? Is there something on my face?"

Brother Zhou turned his face away and shook his head, "There is nothing on your face, I am confirming that you should be fully awake now."

"It's about the lighter. Let me tell you, I'm very sober now and I know what I'm doing."

"Well, it's good to be awake." Brother Zhou said as he took out his bag, and took out a document bag from it, "Here you are."

Shang Xuechen reached out to take it, opened the file bag, and asked Brother Zhou, "What is this? Could it be that the house I live in is given to me now. Ouch, brother is generous."

"You have a good idea. This is the family information of the girl named Wen Ting that you asked me to check before. I didn't give it to you because you were unconscious before. Now I give it to you."

Shang Xuechen carefully flipped through the documents in his hand, but was stunned and did not speak.The red light had already turned into a green light, and the car behind kept honking its horn.Brother Zhou turned his head to look at the car behind him, and reminded Shang Xuechen, "Hurry up and drive."

Shang Xuechen came back to his senses, put aside the document bag in his hand and stepped on the accelerator.

Brother Zhou glanced at the road ahead and shouted, "Wrong! This is not the way to my new house!"
