In the dark corner of Ye Weiyang, sitting a man in a suit and leather shoes, the suit jacket was still on the side casually, leaning against the sofa, holding a glass of wine in his hand, taking a sip from time to time, watching the dance floor in front of him with dull eyes. Rocking men and women.

Colorful lights swept over their heads and around them one by one, and the loud music became their best camouflage, which could cover up the real voice in their hearts.The lights were dimly flickering, and everyone couldn't see the real expression on each other's face, nor could they see the eyes of each other clearly, but they were just blindly immersed in the not-so-beautiful music.

They usually explain that only at night, only at this time, can they temporarily put aside the boring, irritating, depressive and painful life, be themselves and release themselves.But this kind of escape is only temporary. Once they walk out of here and return to the cold room, looking at the unpaid utility bills piled up at the door, the landlord’s bombarding rent reminders, the piles of instant noodles in the cupboard, and doing work. The countless work documents on the Internet, the meager salary in the bank card, and the invisible future all tell them that this is the real life, this is the real life, and this is the only way to live. Be the real you.

So when it comes to which one is real, they can't say for sure, and everyone is living deceiving themselves and others.

Tang drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, loosened the tie, and seemed to feel uncomfortable, so he simply tore it off and kept it aside.

Then he added wine to the glass and drank it one mouthful at a time.

This is the first time he spent December 24 alone.This day is Christmas Eve, and this day is also Tang Yi's birthday.

In the past, Lu Ming was always with him. Lu Ming would always call many people to celebrate Tang Yi's birthday, and the whole birthday party was very lively.Later Tang Yi said that he thought it was too noisy and he didn't like it, and since then it was only the two of them on his birthday.Lu Ming would prepare birthday presents for him every year, although they were all wicked things.Lu Ming would also take the opportunity on this day to force Tang Yi to agree to his many feeble demands.Lu Ming would sincerely sing the birthday song to him in front of him. Although the singing was ugly, Tang Yi enjoyed it all.

He was used to this, he felt that this day was not only his birthday, but that this day belonged to Tang Yi and Lu Ming.

But now he is sitting here alone.

Ever since he found out that Lu Ming and Cheng Shen were together yesterday, Tang Yi had tried to disturb him as little as possible, but this morning he packed himself up early and sat at home waiting for Lu Ming's call, but he waited until Did not wait for the night.Tang Yi sat on the sofa. He watched the sunlight slowly move from one corner of the living room to the other, and then disappeared. He waited like this from morning to night. None of them belonged to Lu Ming.In the end Tang Yi had no choice but to laugh at himself, as if he didn't know what he was doing.

Tang Yi drank one cup after another, and at some point there was another person sitting next to him. The distance between that person and him was not too far and not endless, just within the reach of his hand, and he just looked at it like that. He doesn't speak.

Tang Yi's eyes were still staring at the front, ignoring the people next to him, and kept pouring wine into his mouth.

He didn't know how many glasses he was drinking, but the person next to him suddenly reached out and snatched his glass, and then drank the wine inside in one gulp.The alcohol was so strong that people who didn't drink often couldn't bear it at all. Tang Yi watched his face wrinkled because he couldn't bear the stimulation, and finally he slammed the wine glass on the table.

"Have you had enough?"

Tang Yi smiled, "Why are you here? Didn't I give you a vacation?"

"Look at what you look like now."

"Today is Christmas Eve. Don't you have a date? I'm so busy that I managed to give you two days off. Why don't you go get together with your friends?"

"What about you? Why are you drinking alone here? Where's Lu Ming?"

Tang Yi's hand that was pouring the wine suddenly trembled, "I don't know."

"Why isn't he with you anymore?"

"I do not know."

"Didn't you be inseparable in the past? Didn't he say that you were willing to go through fire and water for him? Didn't you wipe his ass for everything he did, and didn't leave a name for the good deeds? What's the matter now? Leave you alone If you drink away your worries here, he doesn't care about you? Or is it because of him that you became what you are now?"

"shut up!"

Tang Yi grabbed Xiaoye by the collar and dragged him in front of him brutally. From such a close distance, Xiaoye could smell the strong smell of alcohol in Tang Yi's breath, and couldn't help curling her lips.

Tang Yi let go of him, and sneered, "I see, you came to see my joke."

"I'm not."

"Then what are you here for? Why do you mention him when you are so good?"

"I just want to know why."

"Why?" Tang Yi seemed a little surprised, "...Xiaoye, do you have any friends?"

"Of course there is."

"is it a lot?"

"Look, there are many ordinary friends, but only a few close friends."

"I don't have one." Tang Yi turned to look at Xiaoye, "I have nothing but Lu Ming."

Hearing what he said, Xiaoye showed a hint of distress on her face, while Tang Yi was still smiling, "Do you think I'm a failure?"

Xiaoye didn't speak, just took another glass, picked up the wine bottle and poured herself a glass of wine, then pushed the glass to Tang Yi's face, touched his glass, and drank it down.

Tang Yi asked him if he was a failure, and to be honest, Xiaoye felt that he was a failure.As the only heir of the Tang Corporation, he sat in a position of less than [-] people in the Tang Corporation at a young age. Although his father was Tang Shenglin, the chairman of the Tang Corporation, Tang Shenglin had let go of the company several years ago. hand, traveled around, and handed over the huge company to the fledgling Tang Yi.

There are many capable people in the company, and there are not a few people who are staring at this position. If he relied on this relationship alone, he might have already lost his footing in this complicated interpersonal relationship.It is understandable that what has supported him all the way to the present is his excellence and ability, which is worthy of his position.Such an excellent person, such a seemingly perfect person, but his culprit is his loneliness.

Tang saw that he didn't stop him from drinking, so he took a sip himself.

"You know, my father and mother divorced when I was very young."

Xiaoye nodded, "Well, I've heard of it."

"My dad was very busy at that time, and he often couldn't see anyone during the day and night. But I was very timid, and I was very scared at home alone, and I didn't dare to sleep at night, but I couldn't help it. I called my mom, but he was only busy. I want to go on a date with a new guy. So I would lock my bedroom door and lie in bed with the light on until dawn, and I would sit up at the slightest sound. You know that scary feeling? The fear of darkness and loneliness that comes from the bottom of my heart."

Xiaoye had never heard him talk about herself, this was the first time.

"Later, I gradually got used to it. I began to try to sleep, and I curled up in the quilt to give myself a sense of security. Although it was boring, at least I could fall asleep alone, but the process was a bit difficult. Later, my sleep became more and more difficult. It's so soft that if there's any sound, I'll wake up right away."

Tang has always liked to sleep with his head covered. His long-term habit has made him feel at ease only in this way.Only Lu Ming knew about this.

"Then...does your father know about this?"

Tang Yi shook his head. "Only Lu Ming knows."

After a pause, he continued: "It was Lu Ming who accompanied me through that period of time. He was the one who came in a taxi and knocked on the door of my house in the middle of the winter night wearing slippers, saying that he was worried about me. A person was scared so he wanted to sleep with me. He was only seven years old at that time. You know, he also ran out secretly at that time. I can’t help but feel like a child with red feet from the cold at night stopping a car on the side of the road. As you can imagine, it took half an hour to drive from my house to his house, but he was dragged around by the taxi driver for nearly two hours. Although he said he was here to accompany me, I also saw fear in his eyes And scared. From that moment I knew we were the same."

In the past, he always felt that Lu Ming depended on him to live, but now he realized that he couldn't do without Lu Ming.

"Why don't you go to him?"

"What are you looking for him for?"

"Go to him, tell him how much you value him, tell him what you've done for him, ask him what he thinks of you, ask him what you mean to him, ask him why he forgot On your birthday, go and have fun with others..."

"you shut up."

Tang Yi's sudden increase in volume frightened Xiaoye for a moment. Afterwards, he seemed to realize that his tone was too aggressive. After scratching his scalp with his hands, he returned to his indifferent expression just now, "What are you doing here today? ?”

"Did you believe me when I said I came to celebrate your birthday?"

"Believe it, why don't you believe it." Tang Yi took a sip from his glass, "How do you know that today is my birthday?"

"...Because...I'm your assistant, isn't it normal to know this?"

Tang Yi came back to his senses suddenly, smiled and said, "Oh, yes."

"President Tang..."

"Ok?"

"If you are just a friend or relative to Lu Ming, then you should know that he will have his own life sooner or later, and you will be separated sooner or later, but you will always be friends with each other. If..." Xiaoye paused, "If you If you like him, you should have told him earlier that you can decide whether to live or die, and don’t bear these burdens alone.”

Tang Yi just shook his head.

In fact, Tang Yi himself felt very confused about this so-called "friendship". He didn't know when it started, but his feelings for Lu Ming began to change slightly. He didn't notice the subtle things until now. out of hand.In the past, Lu Ming was both a friend and a relative to Tang Yi, but now he can't tell.

He didn't know what kind of existence Lu Ming was to him. Lu Ming had countless friends, but Tang Yi only had Lu Ming.He looked at Lu Ming and Cheng Shen together, but he couldn't say what he should have blessed, and even had a slight desire in his heart for them to break up. He felt very strange to himself like this, but he was also very familiar with it.Xiaoye's words are correct, and he understands the truth, but he just can't let it go and can't do it.

"What you don't understand, even I don't understand."

"I don't understand, but I want to tell you that even if you lose Lu Ming, you still have me."

Tang Yi lost his mind because of Xiaoye's words. He saw the face of the person in front of him becoming more and more blurred. He didn't know if it was because of drinking too much alcohol, but he felt a sudden burst of sadness in his heart. Tang Yi approached him and used Holding his face gently with both hands, Tang Yi had already kissed him when Xiaoye realized it.

The strong smell of alcohol and the heat waves constantly churning from the bottom of their hearts enveloped the two of them. At this moment, the noise around them seemed to disappear, and there was only the sound of each other's breathing in their ears. Xiaoye was about to be intoxicated in this kiss.
