Gentle evening breeze

Before leaving get off work, Xu Jie received a call from Yu Dongfeng, telling him that he was working overtime today and would not be able to go home until early in the morning at the earliest.

After hearing this, Xu Jie felt a little sympathetic towards Dongfeng.What is his job?Not to mention working overtime, staying up all night is commonplace.It is often a project that overwhelms people.Therefore, although Yu Dongfeng on the other end of the phone spoke in a cautious tone, as if he was afraid that Xu Jie would get angry, Xu Jie gave Yu Dongfeng a great understanding and asked him to pay attention to eating according to the order, Don't work too hard and hang up the phone.

I thought I had to rush back to cook, but Yu Dongfeng worked overtime, and it was a bit boring to cook dinner alone, so Xu Jie thought about finding a restaurant outside the company to eat casually.Since he didn't have to worry about going home to cook, he wasn't in such a hurry to get off work. He stayed in the office alone until everyone had left, and used the company computer to read news on the web in boredom.

After such a delay, Xu Jie's college class group flashed up, opened the dialog box, and an old classmate whose name was remarked as "Bai Zhinan" sent a message to the effect that he will come to Beijing in the next two days, hoping to be in the capital. Old classmates can get together.

When Xu Jie saw the news, his heart really wanted to be pulled.After hesitating for a long time, he clicked on Bai Zhinan's private chat box and sent a message:

Xu Jie: "When will you come? I'm in Beijing now."

After sending the message, Xu Jie's heart beat like a bunny. He held his breath and stared at the computer screen, wondering how Bai Zhinan would reply to his message.After waiting for about two or three minutes, the other party sent a message.

Bai Zhinan: "I booked plane No. 27. I will contact you as soon as I find a place to live. What's your phone number?"

Xu Jie immediately pressed a series of numbers on the computer and sent it. Not long after, the phone rang, a familiar number, and the name on the caller ID had not changed, it said 'Brother Nan'.

Xu Jie stared at the caller ID of his mobile phone in a daze for a moment.It turned out that Bai Zhinan was still using the phone number he had when he was in college.The two of them had a good time in college, even so good that they lived together outside the school.At that time, because Bai Zhinan was tall and strong, with strong muscles, he looked very much like the young and Dangerous boy in Hong Kong movies, and his name happened to have the word "South", so Xu Jie called him "Brother Nan" or simply "Brother" for short. '.

Xu Jie also couldn't tell what kind of mentality he was in. He had changed his mobile phone several times, but he kept Bai Zhinan's phone number—even though the two of them hadn't contacted each other since they broke up.

□□ When the message came, there was a beep, and Bai Zhinan's message box displayed the new message.

Bai Zhinan: "Did you get my number?"

Xu Jie panicked, dropped his phone on the ground, picked it up and hurriedly replied: "Got it. I'll pick you up at the airport on the 27th."

The other party was silent for a few seconds, and sent back a message saying, "No, I have to clean up for a while after getting off the plane, and I will contact you after I settle down."

Xu Jie looked at the screen with an indescribable sense of loss, but he had nothing else to say except typing the word 'OK'.Xu Jie stared blankly at Bai Zhinan's avatar on the screen, thinking back to their college days, when they were in college, and when they broke up, he still clearly remembered.However, although the feelings at that time are unforgettable to him, but he seems to remember Bai Zhinan's appearance not so clearly.

He should be different now than he was then, right?When I graduated, I heard that he failed the postgraduate entrance examination and re-examined for a year to study for a Master of Laws. So he should have graduated by now?

No, Xu Jie shook his head and counted with his fingers. If he had retaken the exam for a year, he should have graduated in July this year.Has it been six or seven years since they broke up?

Xu Jie was a little dazed when he thought of this, as if those few crying nights when they just broke up seemed to happen just a few days ago.

Xu Jie showed a wry smile, why does he still seem to be unable to let go?Obviously now he is different from the one he was in college.

When I was in college, I still had the kind of innocence that seemed to be "the happiest person in the world", but after working for a few years, he had long been sharpened by life.He already understands that maybe he is not qualified to receive all the love from God, and not everything can go according to his own wishes. However, he is already considered lucky, and his life is not bad, so he should know how to be content and cherish it.

For example, his current boyfriend, although there are some things that he is not very satisfied with - Yu Dongfeng's temper is too gentle, and he doesn't know what love is, but anyway, the two have been officially together for more than a year, and the relationship is still there .

It's just that compared with the relationship in college, it seems to lack some intense things, but now I am not the identity and age that can be passionate, so it seems unfair to compare these two relationships together.

Before he could clarify his thoughts, Xu Jie's stomach growled.So he turned off the computer, picked up the key and left the office.

Beijing is still a bit cold in winter, especially when he just came out of the well-heated office, Xu Jie shivered when the cold wind poured into his clothes.Trotted hurriedly to the fast food restaurant opposite the office building, and after ordering a mushroom meal, Xu Jie found a corner and read the news on his phone while waiting for the meal to be delivered.

While waiting for the meal, Xu Jie heard someone calling him.Looking up, the other party looks familiar, he is a classmate in college, but the name——I can't remember it.

Xu Jie had no choice but to smile at him awkwardly, but the other party pulled away the chair opposite him and sat down as if he didn't care, and asked immediately after sitting down, "Have you heard? Bai Zhinan from our class will also come to Beijing in two days. "

One sentence made Xu Jie lose his mind for a few seconds, is this a coincidence?Heard news about Bai Zhinan twice in one day.But immediately Xu Jie suppressed those miscellaneous thoughts in his mind, he didn't want to talk about that person anymore - he said that he didn't feel that way about himself, so he couldn't always look like he couldn't let it go.
