never far away

On the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, the company had an early holiday and adjusted to go to work on the eighth day of the first lunar month.Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, receiving a considerable number of year-end awards, and their hearts were filled with joy.Dandan even imitated Crayon Shin-chan's tone and yelled "Boss has good thighs", which made everyone laugh.

Zhao Shu was wearing a well-fitting suit and had handsome features. "We have relied on everyone's mutual support this year. I hope that we will work hard to improve the company's performance in the coming year! I have reserved two tables at Fenglaiju tonight, and I can bring Family members, please don't be absent." He said the last sentence while looking at Lin An, Lin An lowered his head slightly, because he had indeed shirked many dinner parties recently.

He thought for a while, and then called Li Sifei, "Tonight we have a dinner at the company, we can bring our family members, do you want to come?"

Maybe the word "family" pleased him, Li Sifei agreed without hesitation.

Lin An was waiting for him at the door of the restaurant at night, and was a little surprised to see Li Sifei's clothes.A three-piece slim suit with a mid-length woolen coat, pointed leather shoes on her feet, and well-groomed hair, cut into short bangs that can cover her eyebrows. "Why are you dressed...so formal?"

Except for wearing a suit on the first day of the interview, he wore shirts and jeans or T-shirts and jeans all the time, and his shoes were casual shoes. In cold weather, he also wore an ordinary black down jacket.

Li Sifei grinned, "Does it look good?"

Although he is not tall enough, his face looks good, Lin An nodded, "It's pretty." Li Sifei's eyes lit up, and he came over to hold his arm intimately, "It's good to look good, I'm going to blind them , let them know what their rivals look like."

Lin An sighed softly, "No one likes me."

Li Sifei looked disbelieving.The two entered the box, he greeted everyone brilliantly, Zhao Shu frowned, came up to him, and shook hands with him.Zhao Shujing was 1.8 meters tall, and his imposing manner gave people a great sense of oppression. Li Sifei looked up at him, with sparks flickering in his eyes.

During the meal, Lin An was very quiet and basically didn't speak, but Li Sifei changed from his usual shy and shy personality, and kept toasting to people, and when he mentioned Lin An, he also called "our An'an" in his tone, which made other people extremely embarrassed .

Dandan leaned close to the boss and whispered, "Is this the original partner who came to swear sovereignty in front of us 'rivals'?"

Zhao Shu laughed, "You really have an imagination."

"How can this be imagination? It's all in front of me, okay? Look at this guy, he's all gay, and he looks like the brightest and most attractive old lady. I don't know what Lin An likes in him."

Zhao Shu took a sip of the wine, slowly aftertaste, "Lin An didn't like him."

"Brother Zhao, how do you know?"

Zhao Shu smiled slightly, but did not answer.

Everyone was quite happy after the meal, Li Sifei was drunk after drinking too much wine, Lin An took him home only after holding him halfway.Helping him unbutton his coat and put on pajamas, and took a hot towel to wipe his face, Li Sifei half-opened his eyes and stared at him, "An'an..."

"Well, here I am."

"Can you really not like me?"

Lin quietly looked at him, not knowing how to refuse.

"Do you like that female secretary? It's called Dandan?"

"No."

Li Sifei bit his lips, "Then why don't you like me? Is it because I'm a man? I'm actually very beautiful. People say that I'm more beautiful than most women..." He writhed his body and his arms moved Waving, "Do you know? In fact, since the first time you helped me, I have liked you...I like you so much...I like you so much..." He took Lin An's hand and touched himself, "I Very good...do you love me? Don't women just have holes? I have them too, very tight and wet..."

His eyes were full of water, and his tongue licked his lips, "I promise to make you comfortable..."

The skin under the palm was indeed smooth and firm, but Lin An shook off his hand as if he had touched a poisonous snake, and took two steps back with a flustered expression, "Go to bed first, I'll make you hangover soup." Regardless of the furious howls behind him, he walked out of the room and closed the door.

He didn't know that Li Sifei would get into such a deep situation, at first he thought Li Sifei was just joking.He has been immersed in his own world, saying that he is good to Li Sifei and will help him with everything. In fact, he knows that he doesn't care about Li Sifei at all.If it were another person who could divert his attention, he would treat that person well.

After Lin Wei, no one is important anymore.

The hangover soup was cooked and sent to the master bedroom. Li Sifei was already asleep. Lin An put the bowl on the bedside table, covered him with the quilt, and turned off the light.He thought they should live separately, since he didn't love Li Sifei, so naturally he couldn't delay him.

When this topic was brought up later, Li Sifei threw things like crazy, and after losing his temper, he cried pitifully and apologized to Lin An, saying that he would no longer deviate from the law, Lin An had no choice but to give up.

After the Chinese New Year, he continued to go to work. After the first lunar month, Lin An received a familiar call from the lawyer Wu.This time he didn't talk about money, and said helplessly, "Old lady Lin knows about your existence and wants to see you."

Lin An thought for a while, "I have no position to meet her, please tell me."

"She's booked a place."

Lin An didn't refuse any more. Lawyer Wu sent Lin An the time and place of the meeting. The time was this Sunday, in a restaurant focusing on health preservation.Lin An went on time, and the waiter invited him into a box.

The table in the box is very large, and there is only one person sitting in it.She said she was an old lady, but she was not very old in appearance, with fair skin and only a few wrinkles, and her hair was meticulously combed into a bun behind her head.But she is indeed in her 70s.

Lin An was ready to be scolded, and she bowed her head slightly to say hello but did not dare to sit down. Old lady Lin stood up and held his hand, looked him over carefully, and said with deep joy in her tone, "Oh , It’s really so big, the real person looks more energetic than the photo. Sit down, sit down quickly.”

Lin An was stunned, and sat down on the chair with the force of her pull down. The old lady Lin looked at him with a good look, "Is it An An? Poor child, your father didn't ask you to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors." , and didn’t tell us about it, I didn’t know until now.”

Lin An gently reminded, "I have nothing to do with the Lin family..."

"Nonsense, the paternity test is already there. You are the grandson of our Lin family. How can it be okay?" Mrs. Lin patted the back of his hand, "Don't worry, don't be afraid of your father, we have already told him, It won't be long before we can persuade him to take you home."

Lin An withdrew his hand with firmness on his face, "I'm sorry, I accepted the appointment to apologize to you, and I have no other thoughts."

The old lady Lin stared, "Why do you apologize? Is it just about Chen Ru? Although your mother did something wrong, it was because Chen Ru was petty and couldn't bear to die by herself. The whole family was unreasonable and used this In order to threaten to take Weiwei back to raise him, he spoke ill of us behind our backs, so that Weiwei didn't even call me father, and my grandparents didn't recognize me."

Lin An had never dealt with such a powerful person before. After thinking about it, she said firmly, "My mother was wrong in that matter, and she did it alone."

"Even if she did something wrong, it will be over once she dies, right? I'm angry with your father, why didn't you let you recognize your ancestors?" Old lady Lin wiped her tears, "Weiwei is not close to us, nor is we married. Tell us that after giving birth to a son, he didn’t even take it home to see during the Chinese New Year, and asked him to post a photo without hesitation. Thanks to our two old things, I miss my grandson and great grandson every day... woo woo..."

After crying for a while, she began to persuade again, "An'an, good boy, can you come back and live with your grandparents? I heard that you are working in a small company now. How can you have any future? When you come back, I will let you go to your father's house." Go to work in the company and become a manager as soon as you enter."

Lin An couldn't laugh or cry, and it took a lot of effort to refuse, but in the end he couldn't refuse the next meeting.

After more than half a year like this, he met Mrs. Lin several times. Mrs. Lin cried and coaxed, but Lin An still didn't let go and didn't go home with her.

Li Sifei was not doing well emotionally, but was swollen materially. He began to learn to buy famous brand clothing and skin care. One month's salary was not enough, and he got a credit card to use. After Lin An found out, he could only help him repay the loan every month.

He didn't care too much about his work, he made several mistakes, his boss scolded him badly, he was a bit arrogant, and he couldn't get along with his colleagues, so he complained to Lin An every day after get off work.Lin An made several suggestions, but he was unwilling to be a low-level employee, so in October, he simply resigned from his job.

After he came back, he pulled Lin An to act like a baby, "I don't want to go out to work anymore, I want to take some private orders like illustrations at home, as long as I work hard, the salary is not less than what I get at work. An An, do you think it's okay?"

"As long as you like it."

Li Sifei showed a bright smile, "I knew An An was the best for me. If you have no money, you have to support me."

But he was used to being extravagant during this period of time, and he didn't know how to restrain himself. He still bought famous brands, but he never realized the hard work he promised.He opened a Weibo, occasionally drew some pictures and posted them, posted some selfies, intentionally or unintentionally expressed his sexuality, and even got some people to follow him.Moments of friends are just popular nowadays, and he also caught up with the new trend. On weekends, he would go to various stylish restaurants to order food and post photos on them. Some small fire.

In this way, the monthly expenditure was greater than the income, and the rent and other expenses fell on Lin An's shoulders.Lin An's salary has increased by nearly one-third compared with when he first joined the company, but the rent alone will cost almost half, and it gradually becomes a bit stretched.He euphemistically mentioned whether to move to a smaller house or a farther location, Li Sifei started crying, and finally had no choice but to give up.

When he entered the house that day, he heard a cat meowing, and was startled when he saw a cat climbing frame, cat food and cat litter in the middle of the room, "Sifei, where did the cat come from?"

Li Sifei poked his head out of the bathroom, "I bought it, and I'm bathing it, come and take a look."

Lin An walked to the door of the bathroom and saw that Li Sifei was really bathing a white cat with gray ears and big blue eyes, very cute.

Li Sifei took a few photos of it, and looked at Lin An showing off, "Isn't it beautiful? It's a puppet cat, and it's only three months old."

Lin An sighed in relief, with a calm tone, "How much did you pay for it?"

"It's very cheap. It's only [-] yuan plus a bunch of things outside. The cattery recommended by a fan of mine, the boss even gave me a discount. Others go to buy it. If you don't have [-] yuan, you can't buy it." Li Sifei triumphantly looking at him.

"Did you use a credit card?"

"Yeah, I don't have much cash on hand."

Lin An was calculating in his mind how much savings would be left after deducting the [-], and his expression was a little ugly.Li Sifei didn't notice, asked him to get a bath towel, called twice but didn't hear a response, looked up at him, "An'an, what's wrong with you?"

Lin An held back for a while, but still couldn't help but speak, his tone was still gentle, "Sifei, [-] is a bit expensive, and our savings are not much...and this is not just needed..."

Li Sifei didn't wait for him to finish, and screamed, "What do you mean? Are you saying that I wasted money on unnecessary things?"

"I do not have……"

"You come back from work so late every day, do you know how lonely I am? Can't I buy a cat to stay with me at home?" Li Sifei said excitedly, ran back to the bedroom and slammed the door, and soon heard crying from inside the sound of.

Lin An rubbed his brows, looked at the kitten's terrified eyes, carried it over, wiped off the water with a towel, and dried it with a hair dryer.In the end, he went to apologize to Li Sifei.

Li Sifei didn't make trouble anymore, he was very good at controlling his own temper, and after losing his temper, he put on a pitiful look, he had already guessed Lin An's soft temper.
