contract marriage

Two pillows, two quilts.

Tang Rui went to the bathroom first. When he came out, his hair was half-wet. He changed into lead gray pinstriped cotton pajamas and pajama pants, with a pair of slippers on his feet. He pointed to the bathroom at the young man sitting by the bed and staring at him. Shelande jumped up from the bed like a nimble cheetah, hugged Tang Rui's waist tightly with both hands, and kissed the man on the cheek.

There was overflowing desire in the lowered voice: "Wait for me, baby." Shelande leaned against Tang Rui's neck, took a deep breath on the watery white neck, and strode towards the bathroom .

Sherland originally wanted to take a battle bath as quickly as possible, but thinking that tonight was the first time he and Tang Rui... the Tang Rui who was sober had the same bed, Sherland carefully washed himself from head to toe, and smeared When I was in the shower gel, I couldn't help smelling it. The woody tone and light citrus smell were the same as what he smelled on Tang Rui just now.

Even though it was the same shower gel with the same smell, Sherland still felt that Tang Rui smelled good. Apart from wood and citrus, he could also smell the sea from Tang Rui, which was clean and atmospheric, soft and quiet.

After dawdling in the bathroom, Sherland returned to the bedroom full of expectations. All the bright lights in the bedroom were turned off, leaving only a dim and ambiguous night light, and one side of the large double bed was slightly raised.

Tang Rui fell asleep, wrapping herself in a quilt like a cocoon, facing inside, curled up next to her face with her hands holding the quilt, in an extremely insecure position, and fell into a deep sleep.

Sherland sat on the edge of the bed and watched quietly for a while, and waited for a certain part of the fighting spirit to gradually calm down, and then slowly climbed onto the bed from the other side, he lifted the quilt and moved in, little by little. He approached the sleeping man.Sherland touched Tang Rui's hand cautiously, and the latter trembled suddenly as if he was about to wake up. Sherland scolded himself for being cheap.

Tang Rui was so tired today that he fell asleep as soon as his head touched the pillow. He opened his eyes in a daze. Instinctively, he leaned over, rubbed his head against Sherland's neck, found a comfortable position and went into Sherland's arms, and continued to sleep with his eyes closed.

Gently rubbing Tang Rui's hair, Sherland lowered her head and kissed the man's forehead, her entire chest was filled with a tender and satisfied emotion.

Sherland has not been in a good mood recently. He thought that after Tang Rui agreed to associate with him, happy days would come, but what happened?Tang Rui goes out early and returns late every day. Except for breakfast and sleeping at night, Sherland doesn't see Tang Rui at all. Even if she wants to do something good for her physical and mental health at night, she can only bear it when she sees Tang Rui's exhausted appearance. Hold on.

Haishi's planning company branch and restaurant are about to open, and Tang Rui is busy with things every day, such as restaurant decoration, publicity, menu, chef recruitment, branch personnel training and recruitment, etc.

It's not that he has to do it himself, but this is the beginning of Tang Rui's career in Haishi after all. He has a cautious personality and is famous for his seriousness and meticulousness in his work. If he doesn't watch him every day, he will feel uneasy.

Tang Rui took the time to call Wang Anan back, and agreed to Wang Anan's program invitation. His circle of friends in Haishi is limited, and if he wants to expand the company's reputation, being on the program is also a good way.

The planning branch and the restaurant are rented in the same building, a retro building next to the river, Tang Rui rented three floors, the first and second floors are used for the planning company, the seventh floor with an open-air balcony is used as a restaurant, and the terrace is empty The renovation has not started yet.

The night was getting darker, the decoration staff had already evacuated, and the employees had all returned home. Tang Rui put his hands on the railing, and the brightly lit luxury yacht sailed by the river from time to time. Pedestrians on both sides of the river came and went, and the downstairs was bustling and lively , the upstairs was silent.

Tang Rui was thinking about why he agreed to Sherland's proposal for a relationship a few days ago, locked the door and came out of the building, and when he walked down the steps two or three steps, a figure suddenly stood up not far away, although Haishi has always been law and order. That's right, Tang Rui was still taken aback. When he saw the man's appearance clearly, he frowned inadvertently, and quickened his pace.

Li Dongming yelled eagerly, ran over and grabbed Tang Rui's arm: "Brother Tang—you don't want to see me that much? I can't get through by calling you, Brother Tang, I just want to talk to you words."

"There's nothing to talk about between us." Throwing away Li Dongming's hand, Tang Rui took a step aside. Standing face to face made him feel very uncomfortable. Tang Rui walked along the river, and Li Dongming followed closely for fear of being killed. Inadvertently, Tang Rui ran away again, but he didn't dare to hold Tang Rui's hand again.

"Shelande and I grew up together. You don't know his character. He is domineering and rude..."

Tang Rui paused, and when he turned around with reprimanding eyes, Li Dongming instantly forgot what he was going to say later. He heard Tang Rui say with dissatisfaction: "You can tell me what you want, but if you It's your emotional evaluation of others, it's not necessary."

Tang Rui's voice was as peaceful as Li Dongming's in memory. He felt the long-lost satisfaction from this familiarity, and also felt sour jealousy because of the protection of Sherland in these words.

Li Dongming didn't come to make Tang Rui angry. He softened his tone and lowered his posture. He knew that no matter how cold and distant Tang Rui looked on the surface, he was actually a soft-hearted man.Tang Rui might not want to see him, but when he came and showed his vulnerable side, it was difficult for Tang Rui to show a cold and unfeeling attitude.

"I'm sorry, I was a little impulsive, I just didn't expect you to be with Sherland." Li Dongming looked in a daze, his face turned pale, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.

Tang Rui leaned back on the stone guardrail beside the river, with his hands folded in front of his chest, in a defensive and indifferent posture. Seeing Li Dongming unprepared that night really made him lose his composure, and now he just looks at Li Dongming like this.

Li Dongming took care of it, and cut off all his long hair and beard that night. He looks handsome, just as handsome and good-looking as when he was in college, and more mature than a few years ago.Tang Rui looked at Li Dongming calmly, confirming in his heart over and over again that he really had no extra feelings for Li Dongming.

"I have always felt that the person who is qualified to be with you should be someone with a gentle personality, not someone who is arrogant and unreasonable like Sherland. I just... want to care about you." Li Dongming smiled miserably, "I I know I'm not qualified to say that."

After all, the person who hurt Tang Rui the most emotionally was Li Dongming.

Tang Rui pursed his lips slightly. Li Dongming still didn't say a word. They knew it well, but Tang Rui inexplicably felt a faint smug light flashed in Li Dongming's eyes, which made him feel sick for a moment, and this This feeling of nausea grew with the time Li Dongming dangled in front of his eyes.

"It's good that you know." Tang Rui dropped a thorny sentence, and looked back over Li Dongming, whose face turned pale for a moment. A pure black Aston Martin parked on the side of the road arrogantly, with the windows down, Sherland's eyes darkened.

Tang Rui didn't know if Sherland was usually a talkative person. At least during the time they knew each other, there was almost no silence when Sherland was around. No, to be precise, there was never one before today.

The car was driving in the night, and the bright lights on both sides of the road and the shade of the trees cast alternating light and dark through the car windows. In these days when they started dating, Sherland would drive the car downstairs and wait before Tang Rui got off work. On the way home, Sherland would drive slowly, chatting about what he was doing from time to time, and Tang Rui would also say a few words when he talked about interesting topics.

Or when Tang Rui was talking, Sherland just listened quietly while driving.

Chatting with Sherland was a very pleasant thing, which Tang Rui felt deeply when they met on the first day, and it was probably the biggest reason why he readily agreed to associate with Sherland.

It is really the first time that the situation is so quiet as it is now. Sherland's appearance of driving attentively and seriously can be just a magazine photo if she casually takes a photo. Tang Rui is a little uncomfortable with this kind of situation that is too quiet and embarrassing. It's only a little bit.

As an adult, and several years older than Sherland, Tang Rui will not blame his lover for ignoring him willfully like a teenager. He always feels that adults' feelings should be rational and mature.

Sherland did not speak because he was probably angry.

Tang Rui didn't talk, he just didn't know how to start the topic, whether to go straight to the topic and talk about Li Dongming, or talk about some relaxing topics first to ease the atmosphere.

At a red light at the intersection, the car stopped.

"I saw him when I went downstairs."

Tang Rui felt that it would be better to speak clearly first. She didn't get any response from Sherland after she finished speaking, and her hands were intertwined in front of her body. This was Tang Rui's subconscious gesture to relieve embarrassment.

"I know this is naive, but..." He was really upset when he heard Li Dongming slander Sherland. Tang Rui didn't know whether he should say it, considering that Li Dongming and Sherland were good friends who had known each other for many years, and he and Sherland But just after meeting, Tang Rui swallowed the latter words, and said instead, "I'm sorry, I couldn't hold back my anger at Li Dongming, he is always your good friend, I shouldn't..."

Sherland interjected, "We'll talk about it when we go home."

Well, Tang Rui thought to himself.

The restaurant is not too far from where they live. It takes more than ten minutes to drive there. Tang Rui told Sherland two days ago that there is no need for Sherland to pick him up every day. Of course it is not annoying, but Tang Rui has never troubled others so much before. , can probably be described in four words, flattered.

The Aston Martin parked steadily in the underground garage. When Tang Rui lowered his head to unfasten his seat belt and was about to get out of the car, his hands were suddenly pressed down hard. He raised his head in confusion, and Sherland looked straight at him, with Hidden two balls of fire.

Not the fire of anger, just two hot fires.

I don't know why I feel that Sherland's appearance is a bit childish, like a child staring at a lollipop, Tang Rui couldn't help laughing: "What's wrong?"

"I feel like I've been insulted by you."

"what?"

"Why do you think that I will be unhappy because you have a bad attitude towards Li Dongming? I'm jealous!" In the narrow space, Sherland bit the last few words hard, wishing to bite the word "jealousy" into pieces Spit it out and step on your feet hard.

He can't wait to rush up and kick Li Dongming into the river. Tang Rui actually thinks that Li Dongming is more important to him?Sherland was angry and wanted to laugh, holding back all the words in his stomach and wishing to spit them all out. If it wasn't for the inconvenience of driving on the road, he wanted to ask Tang Rui why he thought so.

Sherland was extremely frustrated: "You actually apologized..." He smiled wryly, "You will make me think that I did something wrong."

Tang Rui, who was a little stunned, finally came back to his senses: "I'm sorry..."

"Just say sorry again, and I will forcefully kiss you right now!" He threatened viciously.

Tang Rui choked for a moment, with a smile in his eyes: "Sorry."

Sherland rushed over directly, fuck Li Dongming, and all rolled away, there was really no need to delay his rare time with Tang Rui for these insignificant people.
