Burn

On the way to deliver today's last order, Xu Ran's WeChat rang non-stop, all from Li Dongyao.

"Just think about it!"

"Change your job, you will definitely earn more than you do now!"

"I really don't mean anything else, I just want to help you!"

"Delivering food is hard and dangerous, I really think about it for you!"

……

When Li Dongyao asked him last week if he wanted to change jobs, he thought he was just asking casually.Unexpectedly, I really found a job for him this week. I heard that he sells tea in his friend's shop, and his income is more than that of delivering food now.But he refused without hesitation.Li Dongyao asked him why, but he didn't say.As a result, he kept calling and sending WeChat messages to convince him to accept the job.

Before the last order was delivered to the customer, Li Dongyao called again, Xu Ran pressed it, and the other party called again, and finally he simply pressed mute.After the last order was delivered, he went back to the contact point and picked up some things. It was already eleven o'clock in the evening when he finally returned.

Xu Ran rode his bicycle downstairs and found a big car parked beside the corridor entrance. The light was dim, and the dark body had a faint luster, which looked quite high-end.The big car took up the place where he parked his electric car, so he had to find a side corner to park the car. In order to prevent the car from being stolen again, he added a lot of scratches to the old base and bought two big locks .

Xiao Huan leaned against the car, lit a cigarette, and looked at Xu Ran who was squatting on the ground in the corner and focused on locking the car.It was a day of more than ten degrees at night, and he was still wearing a blue short-sleeved uniform.There was a lock in the front and a lock in the back. After locking it, he checked it back and forth uneasy.

When Xu Ran walked to the side of the car, he finally saw Xiao Huan leaning on the side of the front of the car. He was dressed in black and integrated with the car body. The cigarette in his hand was shining brightly, leaving the last bar.

"Why don't you answer the phone?" Xiao Huan asked him with a hoarse voice.

Xu Ran quickly took out his mobile phone. Besides Li Dongyao's seven missed calls, there were two missed calls from Xiao Huan in front of him.

"Mute."

"Muting the mobile phone for food delivery, are you afraid of complaints from customers?" Xiao Huan stubbed out the cigarette and threw the cigarette butt on the ground.If the street lights were not broken, Xu Ran should be able to find more cigarette butts.

Xu Ran felt that no matter how he explained, Xiao Huan would not believe it.

"You, what's the matter?" He asked proactively.

"Go up and talk." Xiao Huan stretched out his hand to accept what Xu Ran was carrying.Xu Ran reflexively turned sideways to hide, but Xiao Huan's hand stopped halfway.

"Let's go, let's go!" Xu Ran took half a step forward and walked into the corridor.

Xiao Huan turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone, and the two went upstairs one after the other.After entering the room, Xiao Huan sat on the sofa like last time.Xu Ran put down the things in his hands and poured him a glass of water.

"What are you carrying?" Xiao Huan's eyes fell aside, what Xu Ran put on the table.

"A little food from a familiar shop." Xu Ran carried the bag into the kitchen. It was indeed a gift from a familiar shop, but they were all nearing the expiry date.

"I'm a little hungry, give me something to eat." If it wasn't for the fact that Xu Ran's cover-up was too obvious, Xiao Huan would not have made such a request.He was just curious about what kind of life Xu Ran lived.

Sure enough, Xu Ran showed hesitation and embarrassment.

"Well, it's actually not very tasty." Xu Ran looked at Xiao Huan, hoping that he could stop this probing game.

"Forget it." Xiao Huan's tone suddenly became much colder.

"If you're really hungry, I'll make you a bowl of noodles." Xu Ran hesitated.

Xiao Huan did not refuse: "Okay."

When Xu Ran was standing in the kitchen waiting for the water to boil, he was in a daze. He didn't know what Xiao Huan wanted to do next.

Something fell on the floor in the kitchen, what appeared to be an iron basin.Xiao Huan got up and saw Xu Ran squatting on the ground, staring at the iron basin that fell on the ground, motionless.In the iron pot on the gas stove, noodles are rolling in boiling water.

"Are you ready?" Xiao Huan asked standing by the door.

Xu Ran's sanity was pulled back, he picked up the iron basin in a panic, and was about to put it back on the dish rack, but when he put it halfway, he felt wrong, and finally threw it into the sink.He took out a porcelain bowl again, poured out the noodle soup, scooped out the noodles, put two blanched vegetables, put two spoonfuls of meat sauce on top, and a little green onion, Xiao Huan's noodles were ready.

"I made the meat sauce myself, I need to mix it up." Xu Ran handed Xiao Huan the chopsticks.

Xiao Huan took the chopsticks, mixed the noodles and meat sauce, and took a bite. The taste was slightly bland, not delicious.

Xu Ran sat aside, watching him eat noodles slowly.Neither of them spoke.After Xiao Huan finished his last bite, Xu Ran asked, "What is it that you are looking for me?"

Xiao Huan put down his chopsticks and looked at Xu Ran opposite him: "Li Dongyao changed jobs for you, why didn't you change?"

"I think the current job is quite good." After hearing his intentions, Xu Ran heaved a sigh of relief, and added: "This job is more free."

"It's also more difficult." Xiao Huan stared at Xu Ran.

"It's okay." Xu Ran turned his head to avoid his eyes.

Xiao Huan stopped talking, and Xu Ran sat quietly.It started raining outside at some point, crackling and crackling on the old wooden lattice windows.The wind picked up and blew open the half-closed windows.There was wind in the room, and the clothes hanging by the window were blown to the ground.

Xu Ran got up, picked up his clothes, and fastened the window.Xiao Huan's gaze followed him, and Xu Ran turned around to meet his gaze.

"Are you okay?"

Xiao Huan raised his hand and looked at the time. It was already twelve o'clock, very late.

"Consider Li Dongyao's proposal." Xiao Huan got up and said.

Xu Ran lowered his head and said nothing.Xiao Huan walked to his side: "You can't be like this forever!"

"I'm fine now!" Xu Ran looked up at him.

Xiao Huan saw his eyes behind the glasses, the black eyes were shining with light, and he could vaguely see the shadow of the past.He suddenly reached out to take off Xu Ran's glasses, Xu Ran couldn't dodge in time, and dimly saw Xiao Huan's approaching face.

When Xiao Huan's lips imprinted, Xu Ran's whole body went "boom", and the perception of all organs in his body failed, only his lips still had a little perception.Xiao Huan's lips are cold, just like his own.Xu Ran instinctively hid back, but his head was pinned down.When Xiao Huan's warm tongue came in, Xu Ran felt alive.He wanted to push Xiao Huan away from his shackles, but he held him even tighter, but his tongue was always gentle, gently sweeping across his mouth, slowly pursuing his tongue.

The rain outside the window became heavier, white lightning pierced the night, and thunder began to strike in the distance.

When Xiao Huan let go of Xu Ran, he found that he was crying, with tears on his face.That thrilling excitement is back.

Li Dongyao found out that he was blocked by Xu Ran's phone and WeChat.He ran to Xiao Huan and asked, "Have you talked to Xu Ran?"

"Let's talk." Xiao Huan always had a poker face.

"The results of it?"

"He refused!"

Li Dongyao was frustrated: "What did you talk to him about, he blocked me."

"I'll let him consider your proposal." Xiao Huan did say that.

"What else?" Li Dongyao looked at him, he didn't believe it, so he talked about it.

"It's gone." Xiao Huan remained expressionless.

Li Dongyao couldn't find any clues from his face.

"Did he block you?"

"I don't know." After they separated that night, Xiao Huan hadn't contacted Xu Ran yet, and Xu Ran wouldn't take the initiative to find him.

"Try it and call him?" Li Dongyao urged.

Xiao Huan coldly refused: "No."

"Send a WeChat to the head office!" Li Dongyao didn't give up.

Xiao Huan rejected him again with cold eyes.

"This kid, why is he so stubborn!" Li Dongyao couldn't understand: "Is he also like this when he was studying?"

Xiao Huan frowned and thought for a while, then nodded: "Yeah." No matter how much he disliked him, he always followed him.He scolded him, satirized him, but he didn't seem to take it to heart, and always smiled at him.He didn't cry many times in front of him, but every time he cried deeply.Xiao Huan recalled the scene of that night again. He had no experience of kissing others, but this kind of thing seemed to require no experience. From the moment he decided to kiss Xu Ran, he knew what to do.He imagined Xu Ran's many reactions, pushing him away, scolding him, but he never thought that he would cry.His tears surprised him and made him even more excited.

Li Dongyao looked at Xiao Huan suddenly lost in thought, rubbing his fingers back and forth on his lips, as if he was thinking about something.

"You won't force Xu Ran to sleep!?"

Xiao Huan was frightened by Li Dongyao's approaching face at some point, and reflexively picked up the folder next to him and shouted at his face.Li Dongyao was beaten, screaming in pain.

"Xiao Huan, you are sick!"

"I think you are sick!" Xiao Huan was annoyed.

Li Dongyao covered his face and pointed at him: "You just looked so young!"

"Boring." Xiao Huan ignored him and called his assistant: "We are going to have a meeting at ten o'clock."

The assistant asked back on the phone: "Isn't it open at eleven o'clock?"

Li Dongyao was leaning on the desk, looking at him playfully with half of his blushing face.

"In advance." Xiao Huan's voice turned cold.

The assistant reminded in a low voice: "But Ya'an's people haven't arrived yet!"

Xiao Huan slammed the phone shut.

"You have a problem!" Li Dongyao was still observing from the sidelines, Xiao Huan was a little different today.He had never seen that kind of indulgent expression on his face, a little happy and a little dangerous.

"Don't you think you're boring? Instead of studying me, you might as well study Ya'an's acquisition case!" Xiao Huan drove away.

After Li Dongyao was sure that something happened to him, he stopped pestering him to pursue it.His intuition told him that his change was related to Xu Ran.Sure enough, he was right, for Xiao Huan, Xu Ran was special.Although he didn't help Xu Ran, it wasn't all fruitless.He walked out of Xiao Huan's office humming a song.

The assistant sitting at the door stopped him with his eyes, and asked him what happened to Xiao Huan inside with gestures.

Li Dongyao told her with his mouth: "I'm in love!"

The assistant covered his mouth in disbelief.Xiao Huan has just been here for two months. He is tall and good-looking. At the beginning, many single female colleagues were eager to try, and even many female executives of cooperative companies also had the intention of taking him down.But after only half a month, no one returned home without a feather.This new boss is a cold-faced god who doesn't like oil and salt.

"Who is it?" The female assistant was curious.

"It's a secret, I can't tell it!" Li Dongyao put his hand in front of his neck and made a beheading motion.
