One by one

At the end of the day, Yu Yi was in a very happy mood, unexpectedly relaxed like never before.

He interviewed three companies in the afternoon, and the other companies seemed to be satisfied with his performance, and the rest was to wait for the notification.Yu Yi knew that since he was an insider, the companies that could send him interview invitations must be companies that knew about his background and events.

Under this premise, he will still be interested in him, and the company's environment is by no means too commercial.

He likes things with feelings, even though he is not young anymore, even though he has suffered a lot, Yu Yi still has enthusiasm for the things he liked when he was a teenager.

In fact, this is what Luo Lian appreciates and is attracted to.

Regardless of whether Luo Lian will come back for dinner tonight, Yu Yi decided to celebrate by himself.Before going home, he made a special trip to buy some vegetables and beer, planning to cook for himself and get some delicious food.

It's a pity that although Luo Lian's home has a kitchen, it is still a studio-style "home" after all. The kitchen is simple, with not much space, and limited sauces and tools.

This made Yu Yi face a difficult situation.

Luo Lian's call came on time, as if to solve Yu Yi's problem, he said on the other end of the phone, "Are you at home? I'll pick you up for dinner."

"Are you free so early today?"

"Ah."

As soon as Yu heard that Luo Lian still had something on his mind, maybe he would know it when they met, so he agreed without any hesitation.

Luo Lianlai was very fast, and arrived at the first floor of Yu in 15 minutes.He didn't go upstairs, but quietly waited downstairs in the apartment for Yu to come down.

When Yu Yi really ran down, he saw Luo Lianyi smoking beside the car.He didn't look at anything, but it didn't look like he was in a daze, doing nothing. He stared at an orchid in the grass not far away for a long time, with a gentle and stubborn expression.

Slowing down and approaching Luo Lian, Yu Yi rarely saw a stubborn look on his face.Because most of the time, Luo Lian didn't have many expressions, which made his occasional expressions very eye-catching.Yu Yi didn't know why such emotions arose in his heart at this moment, occasionally, inexplicably, faintly.

Yu Yi didn't know what this emotion was, but he really wanted to kiss his Mr. Luo.

Seeing Yu go down the stairs, Luo Lian tilted his head and exhaled the last puff of smoke, then stretched out his hand towards the void.

Yu Yi pressed his face in the scarf, then walked towards Luo Lian: "It's cold, why don't you wait for me in the car?"

"Little fish." Luo Lian said in a deep voice.

Yu opened his eyes wide for a moment.

Although he has long been accustomed to this nickname, he has known Luo Lian for so long, and he has never heard Luo Lian call him that.

Inexplicably feel a little...cute?

"I think..." Luo Lian put his hands in his pockets, and there was no joke on his face. If you want to understand his expression at this moment, perhaps it is more appropriate to describe it as a little embarrassed.However, when did Yu Yi see such embarrassment on Luo Lian's face?

"What do you think?"

I also want to, want to do it.Yu Yi added unkindly in his heart.

"I want to take you to meet my father."

Among the thousands of answers, this one was unexpected by Yu at first.He breathed out a cloud of mist in the air, turned his eyes away as if to cover up, and joked: "Do ugly daughter-in-laws always want to see their in-laws? But I'm not ready yet."

"I'm not ready either." Luo continued, "But it's too late."

"Ok?"

"He's leaving at noon tomorrow. I might finish what I'm doing here and go back to accompany him temporarily."

Yu Yi understood after thinking about it, and couldn't help feeling a little worried: "Is his health in poor condition?"

"Get in the car first." Luo Lian got into the car.

Yu Yi shivered a little from the cold, but after getting into the car, he grabbed Luo Lian's hand and rubbed him between his fingers: "Then we missed meeting your father tonight? You've already come out to him In what capacity should I meet him?"

"You know mine."

Yes, Yu Yi does know Luo Lian. Luo Lian has always disdain all kinds of unnecessary disguises. He is very real and direct. Although he occasionally becomes a sharp weapon to hurt people, this is Luo Lian's. Nature is also the reason why Yu Yi is attracted.

"It seems that I still have a long way to go to prepare myself mentally." Yu Yi joked wittily.

The two looked at each other and laughed together.

"Thank you."

"No, since we have decided to walk together in the future, there are many things we have to face together. Let's go." Yu Yi rubbed his hands again, the light outside the car window reflected close to his pupils, and it looked very bright.

It's not far from Luo Lian's father's hotel. On the way, Luo Lian told him something about his father.It might seem strange to say that his father was a successful arts festival businessman, but that is the truth.Qi Shengying told Yu Yi before that many very famous art museums and exhibition halls in China have the participation of Luo Lian's family, and they also own many exhibition halls.

Luo Xiping, Luo Lian's father, started his career in this field in his 20s. Even though he encountered many difficulties at the beginning, he never gave up.From this point of view, it is indeed very similar to Luo Lian's character that will not give in at all.It's just that what's going on in terms of love life is unknown. Yu Yi only learned from Luo Lian's understatement that Luo Xiping was divorced before and has two sons.

"That's why he was very angry when I first came out to make art alone. Because when it comes to inheriting the family property, he hopes to leave most of it to me." Luo Lian said lightly, and when he waited for the red light, he looked sideways Looking at Yu Yi's face.

"It's just that you throw your hands away as the shopkeeper." Yu Yi sighed.He seemed to understand the father's anxiety a little bit.

Luo Lian nodded.

"Wait, so you said that he is not in good health, because you want to..." It's not easy to say the rest of the words directly.

"He still hopes that I can come back and take over his career with my own hands. Because with his physical condition, he really doesn't know how long he can last and how long he can tutor me." When the green light came on, Luo Lian released the brake.

Yu Yi was silent for a moment, thought for a while, and then asked: "But, if you really don't care about anything, you are free outside, and then transfer most of your property to your brothers' names, would you be willing?" ?"

"You know me." This is the second time Luo Lian said this tonight, "I have been outside for so many years, if I am really unwilling, I should have gone back."

"That's right." Yu Yi turned his head and looked at the scenery whizzing by outside the window, "After all, you are not a canary in a cage, but more like an eagle soaring on the top of a snow-capped mountain."

Luo Lian didn't speak any more, but the corners of his mouth curved up.

Some things, Yu Yi was surprised to know.From the moment Luo Lian was willing to speak to him, he already understood Luo Lian's final determination and answer.He will take himself to declare to his father that he has the right to be free, and it has not changed.All he wanted was freedom.

Yu Yi didn't feel that Luo Lian was using him, on the contrary, he was very happy.He is happy that he has finally completely become a symbol in Luo Lian's life, and he and he belong to each other.

After arriving at the destination, Luo Lian stopped the car at the door and threw the key to the waiter who had been waiting outside from the beginning.At first, Yu Yi thought it was the waiter of the hotel. After all, the hotel looked like a five-star hotel, very luxurious. Unexpectedly, after the man parked the car, he followed the two of them into the elevator and pressed the button thoughtfully. The number of the elevator: "Curator Luo has ordered someone to prepare dinner. If Mr. Luo needs any other meals, you can contact me directly later."

Yu Yi became more cautious, for fear that the other party would say something like "Master Luo" or "Second Master Luo", which would be no different from filming a TV series.

Luo Lian didn't say anything, just nodded.Soon, the two walked through the winding corridor, Luo Lian and Yu Yi's hands swung back and forth, and then slowly, Luo Lian reached out and grabbed Yu Yi's hand.

The waiter behind him followed all the time, seeing this, he just pretended not to see it, and lowered his head dutifully.

Because there was a feeling of spreading dog food in public, and this time, he had to directly distribute it to Luo Lian's father, Yu Yi was really awkward.In fact, he knew that there was an anxiety hidden in his awkwardness.Although he had prepared himself mentally as much as possible, he knew that he was not completely ready.He has no experience of coming out, even though Luo Lian has come out, but for some reason Yu Yi can feel that Luo Lian is actually not ready.

It shouldn't be this time, I shouldn't have seen Luo Lian's father so early.

If Luo Lian's father was in good health and did not come to see Luo Lian, then according to the slow pace of development of the two of them, it would take at least two or three years. After the situation is ripe and they are ready to officially become a family, they will not meet Luo Lian's father. .

Thinking of this, Yu Yi actually hesitated.

Luo Lian didn't allow him to back down, but whenever he felt the slightest hesitation from Yu Yi, he squeezed Yu Yi's hand tightly, squeezed it twice, and then continued to move forward unswervingly.

So Yu Yi knew in his heart that even if Luo Lian was not fully prepared, even if he felt that this was not the best time, he was determined to do it and was very determined to meet his father.

The waiter knocked on the door, and Luo Lian immediately pushed it away.The door creaked and was pushed open, Yu Yi's heart speed soared instantly, and the roots of his ears were red.Luo Lian's hand still held Yu Yi's tightly, not allowing him to break free in the slightest.

The private room is very large, the old man inside the door is lying on the bed, surrounded by a lot of medical equipment, two or three people are standing near the bed, one of them looks like a doctor.

Even though they blocked Yu Yi's view of the person on the bed, Yu Yi could still feel that the "physical condition" Luo Lian mentioned was not good.

Originally, Yu Yi thought that since Luo Lian's father was still living in the hotel, no matter what, at least he was not so bad that he couldn't get out of bed, or needed to be hospitalized.Maybe it is a chronic disease, or maybe aging is always a topic that humans cannot control.

But what he never expected was that Luo Xiping, Luo Lian's father, was actually in much worse physical condition than he imagined.It's just the conditions of rich people, and it doesn't have to be done in a hospital.

"Dad." Luo Lian approached, stood by the bed for a moment, and called.

Yu Yi was led by Luo Lian to the bedside, and only then did he see the old man's face clearly. He had a tube inserted into his body, and his heart rate was also tested, and he had an IV on his arm.

Hearing his son's call, the old man opened his eyes, his eyes gradually became clear, first he swam around Luo Lian's face, and then looked at Yu Yi behind Luo Lian.

Yu Yi thought of thousands of opening remarks to deal with the rich and bad elders, but he never expected that Luo Xiping would speak first.

His tone was active, but his voice was old. There was a little smile in the corner of his eyes: "This is your little friend? What a beautiful little friend."
