brother's lover

"Excuse me...Mr. Nojima who lives here..." Yanyi walked to Nojima's door, and saw that the door was not closed, and there was nothing in the whole room except a few pieces of waste paper left on the floor.Yan Yi knocked on the door next door and asked the middle-aged man with a fierce look.

"Why do you ask me, do I look like I know him?" The middle-aged man took a sip of his wine and asked Yan Yi harshly.

"So... when did he... move away..."

"I don't know!" The middle-aged man closed the door rudely.Reluctantly, Yan Yi went to knock on another neighbor's door, and kept asking the landlord, only to find out that Ye Dao found a moving company to move things clean during the day.Since he didn't greet the landlord in advance, he didn't ask for the deposit back.As for where he went, he didn't say.Maybe it was because he was afraid that the landlord's big mouth would be revealed to those who came to ask him where he was going.

"I said..., does he owe money?" The landlord looked at Yanyi with interest.

"Oh, no..." Yanyi thanked the landlord, and went to the Black Wing Bar by car.Unsurprisingly, Nojima has resigned from his job at Black Wing.Takagi with a mustache wiped the tall glass in a bad mood, and giggled in spite of Yan Yi's non-stop questioning, "Maybe he was taken care of by a rich man, as you may know, he is very popular." Men are welcome. And he's really good at taking advantage of that."

Yan Yi's heart that was hanging in the air suddenly sank.Knowing that this was just a guess, my mood still fell to the bottom.Anyway, Nojima disappeared.

Could it be his confession that frightened him.

But obviously the hug that night was so gentle.

Or rather, his entanglement made him feel troubled.Or is there another reason?Is it really like Takagi said...

Yan staggered out of the Black Wing Bar, like a leaky puppet, every step he took, the air in his body was emptied.

Nojima is really gone.Except for the hole in his chest that let him leak air, there was no trace left.

"Master Yanyi, Master Yanyi..." Mr. Zhongchuan called several times in his ear, and Yanyi finally came back to his senses and saw the person in the light gray dress in the mirror in front of him.

The hand-made tailor-made dresses are very fitting and very beautiful.Rang Yanyi was in a trance for a moment, almost unable to recognize that person was himself.

"It's perfect." The manager of the clothing store who was serving by his side clapped his hands gently, "Master Xiyuansi is really suitable for people who wear western clothes. If you go out like this, even if you are a star, I am afraid people will not doubt you."

Although the compliment sounds hypocritical, there is no reason to expose it.Yanyi looked at Zhong Chuan, "Is it okay?"

"Okay." Zhong Chuan smiled and gestured, "You can replace it. Tomorrow night's family gathering, Master Yanyi must wear it to attend."

"Yeah." Yanyi walked into the locker room.

These days, Mr. Nakagawa has been hanging around him, customizing suits and ties, and meeting with hair stylists.He also took him to a famous watch store to pick out two watches.

This kind of solemnity should not be just as simple as a family gathering.But whatever, it doesn't matter.Hiko changed his clothes and came out.Pass the dress to the clothing store manager who is waiting on the side.

"Then I'll help you install it and have it delivered to your house later..."

"No, just leave it to me." Mr. Zhong Chuan refused the manager's kindness with a smile.

"Then, I'll go first." Yan looked at his watch, it was still early, and he could read a few more pages of the book.After all, the exam is imminent.

"I'll see you off." Zhong Chuan followed behind him.

"No, I'll have a meal on the side of the road before going back by myself."

"Then, I'll send you the clothes first."

"Thank you." Yanyi walked out the door on his own. Nakagawa looked at his lonely background and took the packaged dress from the manager with a smile.

It has been almost a month since Nojima disappeared.Yan Yi didn't know how he got through this month.Mostly, I have been reading, sleeping, and looking for something to eat when I am too hungry.Repeatedly, when Mr. Nakagawa came to him, he was taken aback by his sloppy appearance.

Ask someone to tidy up the house for him, and force him to shave off his beard.

Yan passed the shop window all the way, looking at himself in the glass.He hasn't looked in the mirror properly for about a month, and he is really a little strange to himself.He clearly knows that unrequited love makes himself humble and pitiful, but he is addicted to it and cannot extricate himself.To this day, thinking of Nojima still hurts my chest.That hole there, don't know if it will heal.maybe never...

It was obviously dinner, but at five o'clock Mr. Nakagawa's car came to pick up Yanyi.According to Mr. Nakagawa's instructions, Yanyi put on a hand-made light gray dress, brought an expensive watch, and went to a beauty salon to have his hair done a little before he was sent to Pipette's door.

The waiter in a neat uniform opened the car door and politely led them to the reserved seats. Hikoichi sat down neatly and waited for his father and Mrs. Reiko to appear.

"Pipette restaurant is a frequent visitor of gourmet magazines. There are many top French chefs here. Gentlemen and celebrities are flocking to the new menu. Dining here is a symbol of status and status." Mr. Nakagawa who stood aside held the menu Put it in front of Yanyi and introduce him in a low voice.

"Oh." Hiko replied absent-mindedly.

"Master Huang Yi loved the black mushroom foie gras Shaosi steak the most during his lifetime. Of course, they have many signature dishes, such as this black truffle sauce with steak..."

Clear water was brought up, and Yan took a glass and sipped it slowly.It didn't take long for Xiyuanjiliang and Mrs. Reiko to come.There were three other people traveling together, who looked like parents with their daughters.His father's age was similar to Saizono Tera's, and he even dressed with similar delicacy and care.The mother was wearing a gorgeous kimono and kept a decent smile on her face.The daughter is about the same age as Yanyi, wearing a beige evening dress, carrying a handbag and following behind the elders.

Yan Yi immediately understood the intention of this family dinner, stood up and bowed slightly to welcome them.

"It's been a long time." Mrs. Lizi said lightly.

"Just arrived for a while." Yan Yi said politely.

"This is the director of Fuji Bank, Mr. Mikami Johei and Mrs. Mikami, and this is his daughter Mikami Yu." Saizono Tera introduced the guests who came with him with the majesty of his father.Hikoichi bowed, "It's the first time we meet, my name is Xiyuanji Yanichi..."

"He looks like a good young man." Mr. Mikami sat down while looking at Hikoichi, "He's still a college student."

"Actually, I've graduated and I'm preparing for the monk's exam." Saizono Tera sat opposite Mr. Mikami, and Miss Mikami sat opposite Yanichi.Mrs. Reiko elegantly flipped through the menu of the restaurant, whispering something to the waiter.

"What department do you study?" Mr. Mikami looked at Yanichi with interest.

"Chemistry, I mean let him study finance, which can also help the company. But judging from his appearance as a frail scholar, he is quite a man of his own mind."

"Hehe, it's not bad for young people to have their own ideas." Mr. Mikami smiled.

"Miss Yu hasn't graduated from college yet." Saizono Teryo brought the topic to the guest.

"Next year," Mrs. Mikami wiped her hands with the towel handed by the waiter, "Ayou is not as thirsty for knowledge as her sister is. She only likes cooking and tea ceremony, and she is usually very quiet."

"Yanyi is also a quiet child. If two quiet children sit together, will there be no one talking in the room all day?" Mrs. Lizi mocked casually.

"No, as long as there are common topics, we can still chat." Xiyuan Tera smiled.

Yan Yi looked at the red wine brought by the waiter with disapproval.Across the waiter, he took a look at Miss Mikami, who had been silent all this time. She was a cute girl who seemed to have a good tutor.But nothing could be seen on his face except a polite smile.Maybe in her eyes, she is the same way.They are like two well-dressed puppets, participating in a game that seems to have something to do with them, but actually doesn't have much to do with each other.

The dinner party lasted for more than an hour before it was over.At the end, Hikoichi let out a sigh of relief.

After the two parties said goodbye in front of the restaurant, Mr. Mikami and his wife took Miss You and left first.Watching them leave in their car, Xiyuan Tera looked back at Yanichi dissatisfiedly, "You are too dull, please remember your responsibilities as the heir of the Xiyuanji family once in a while. Miss Mikami is very nice, if there is such a fiancee Good thing for you."

Yan Yi pursed his lips, but did not respond.

"Go home." Nishizono Tera looked at the driver's car and turned to Mrs. Reiko.Mrs. Reiko stood in front of the restaurant door, looking fixedly at a young man in a black suit standing in front of the colorful fountain in front of the hotel door. half face.Even so, it can be seen that he has a beautiful and dangerous face.He seemed to be waiting for someone, and when he looked around, he saw someone standing opposite him.He was a little surprised at first, but then there was a hint of evil in his unclear smile, like a fox demon ready to confuse people at any time.

Xiyuan Temple frowned, and sat in the car first.Zhongchuan reminded in a low voice, "Madam, the president has already boarded the car."

Reiko came back to her senses, glared at Nakagawa bitterly and sat in the car.Zhong Chuan looked back at Yan Yi, who was standing beside him just now, suddenly disappeared.Nakagawa looked around and saw the dazed Yanichi circling around the fountain.

"Master Yanyi, who are you looking for?"

"Mr. Zhongchuan saw that man just now, the young man standing by the fountain just now." Yan Yi grabbed his sleeve with an anxious expression on his face.

"You mean... Nojima-kun?" Nakagawa frowned slightly.

"You... know him?" Yan Yi was slightly surprised.

Zhongchuan took the car key from the waiter and asked Yanyi to get in the car, "Young Master Yanyi, it's better not to have anything to do with him. I'll take you back."

Yan Yi passively sat in the car.
