Ren An couldn't calm down a little. He went back to the office to get the key, and ran quickly to press the elevator under the surprised eyes of the staff. While waiting for the elevator, he searched for the location of the county seat, checked the air ticket and train ticket, and the air ticket only went to the local provincial capital. , and the last flight has already set sail, and it will have to wait until tomorrow morning at the earliest. There is still four or five hours' drive to the provincial capital. There is only one slow train left for the train ticket, and it will take nearly [-] hours to arrive. Ren An decided to drive by himself Go, forget it, if you drive fast, you should be able to reach it in more than ten hours.
Chen Min called again, Ren An picked it up and said, "I'll drive there right away, who took the photo?"
Chen Min said: "Do you drive by yourself? I checked, the distance is not close, and there are many mountain roads, but it seems that there are no suitable flights and trains. How about it, tell me a place and I will meet you and drive with you in rotation. You're too hard on your own."
Ren An was silent for a while, and said: "Okay, I'm leaving now, see you at the intersection of the expressway."
Chen Min immediately asked a friend in the store to drive him there, hesitating whether to inform Daewoo, but thinking that Wang Wei's guy was also in the county town, he was afraid that Wang Wei's big mouth would cause trouble, so he didn't say anything, and went directly to meet Ren An .When Chen Min arrived, Ren An was already waiting. Chen Min was a little surprised when he saw Ren An. Ren An's eyes were bloodshot and his expression was tense. The co-pilot said in relief: "Everyone has confirmed the location, you can relax, I will drive first, you take your time."
The highway in the middle of the night was very smooth. Chen Min drove the car at a high speed and steadily, and played some soothing music to relax Ren An's nerves. However, he glanced at Ren An from the corner of his eye and saw the knuckles of his hands holding the phone turned white, so he found a topic Said: "Wang Wei found out. He and his relatives were engaged in real estate development projects in the county. He saw Cheng Lin and quickly told me."
Chen Min simply talked about the topic, teasing Wang Wei's brilliant performance during this period, and finally concluded: "This guy is still extorting me through Cheng Lin's affairs, and wants to develop a further relationship with me. Let's see how I deal with him when I get there."
Interrupted by Chen Min, Ren An was slightly distracted, his face turned normal, and he said, "Didn't alarm Cheng Lin."
"No, I warned Wang Wei, and he secretly took pictures and hid." Chen Min said, and added: "However, you should also be mentally prepared. Wang Wei asked the hotel staff and said that Cheng Lin Now the hotel business is booming, and he is a well-known small boss. Hearing this attitude, he should be doing well. If... just in case..." Chen Min felt that there was no need to make things too clear, Ren An said How can a thoughtful and prudent smart person fail to think of various results?Maybe it's because I can predict all kinds of results that I'm so nervous. This kind of thing is more timid than being close to home, but it is several levels more serious.
Ren An looked at the road ahead silently, and said after a while: "Thank you."
When passing the gas station on the way, Chen Min and Ren An switched meetings. Ren An simply had no rules at all. Turning the steering wheel to overtake those big trucks and buses is like making a special effects movie. Chen Min couldn't stand it, so he asked Ren An to stop at the next rest stop, and he changed over again, and bought some bottles of Nutrition Express for Ren An, saying : "Calm down, calm down, I understand your feelings, but we have to drive safely, meeting with fate is fundamental."
Ren An kept a straight face and said nothing, Chen Min simply became a full-time driver, and drove directly to the county according to the navigation.
The expressway is quite easy to walk, but when you get off the expressway, you change from the national highway to the provincial highway and then to the highway leading to the mountainous area of the county. It is dark and the navigation is sometimes not very effective. After more than one o'clock, I finally touched the road into the county seat.
Chen Min parked the car on the side of the road, he drove all night, his eyes were red, and he was as good as Ren An, the cigarettes he brought with him and the spare cigarettes in Ren An's car were smoked by the two of them along the way, and there were only two left. , Chen Min broke up with Ren An, clicked on it, sighed deeply, and said, "What's the matter? Go straight over?"
Ren An nodded, Chen Min continued to get in the car and drove, and found out the street where "Brother Yang Stewed Pot" was located.Chen Min thought for a while, and asked, "I'll go find a hotel first, and avoid it for now, you and Xiao Lin will meet first, and talk about things, don't be impulsive."
Ren An thanked him and got out of the car.
He stood across the road, looking at the restaurant with "Brother Yang Stew Pot" hanging in front of him.The size of the restaurant is not small, the door has been opened early in the morning, but it is not open, there are a few waiters inside cleaning and wiping the glass.
Ren An suddenly calmed down a bit. It seemed that Cheng Lin was doing well.He walked to the door of the restaurant and stepped into the store. A young guy in waiter clothes saw him and came up to say hello: "Hello! We open at ten o'clock, and we don't have breakfast yet, why don't you go to the breakfast shop in front?"
Ren An sat down at a table and said, "Pour me a glass of water."
The waiter was trained by Cheng Lin to understand the principle of "everyone is a customer when entering the door". In addition, Ren An's extraordinary aura is overwhelming. The face that has been quite serious for the past few years is full of evil spirits because of staying up late and being nervous. What about the waiter? Without asking too much, Li Suo turned around and poured water. When he came over with the teapot, he asked, "Would you like to try the new tea in the store? The local green tea is the first crop of this year, and it tastes good."
Ren An nodded, and the waiter happily went to make tea again.
It's a very light green tea. Ren An looked at the tender green tea leaves floating in the cup, and his mood was slightly calmed by the curling heat. He asked, "What time does your boss usually come?"
The waiter thought about it and said, "Before ten o'clock, usually around nine o'clock, are you looking for the boss?"
Ren An took a sip of hot tea and asked again, "Is your surname Cheng? Cheng Lin?"
The young waiter was very chatty, and said: "Hey, you are an expert. Outsiders usually think that the owner of our shop is named Yang. Did you come here to buy the secret recipe for stew pot sauce from our boss Xiao Cheng? Our boss doesn't sell it! If there's anything else, I'll give the boss a call."
Ren An put down the teacup and said, "No, I'll wait."
Ren An carefully looked at the decoration in the store. It was simple, tidy, and warm. The menus and posters on the wall, as well as the small decorations on the partitions on the wall, showed Cheng Lin's intentions everywhere. Decorating Xiaodai Malatang is the same as back then, he is still so full of vigor, working diligently to achieve his goal step by step.Ren An suddenly felt very relieved and full of pride. He did not believe in Cheng Lin, and his little boy really lived a good life and worked hard.
It is said that while Ren An was waiting for Cheng Lin, Chen Min called Wang Wei and asked, "Did you clean it?"
Wang Wei was taken aback, and asked, "Huh?"
Chen Min stood in the hotel lobby and asked, "Which room do you have?"
Wang Wei was even more stunned, and continued: "Huh?"
Chen Min: "I'm here, come out to pick you up."
Wang Wei: "Huh?!"
Wang Wei reported the room number like a fool, and Chen Min came over within 3 minutes, grabbed Wang Wei's neck and put him on the bed as soon as he entered the door, Wang Wei was so frightened that he shouted: "I, I, I am not ready! !!"
Chen Min laughed miserably, picked up Wang Wei's nightgown and pinched Wang Wei's ass fiercely, causing Wang Wei to tear up and howl like a slaughtered pig. Chen Min said: "Gold card? Treat you for a week A meal? You still want to date me, right? Why are you howling when you are so fat? Huh? Ask brother to work harder? Huh?" He pinched him twice again.
The pain in this buttock is endless aftertaste, Chen Min is the strength of an athlete who has practiced tennis for many years, the pain caused Wang Wei to roll around on the bed, clutching his buttocks, Chen Min vented his anger, and drove all night The tiredness came up, and he said: "Get me a breakfast, I will sleep."
After speaking, spread it on the bed, squinted it with the pillow on it, Wang Wei was still a little dazed while covering his butt with tears in his eyes, he couldn't react, why did Chen Min appear on his bed and ravage his butt like a living person , whispered "fuck" for a while.
Cheng Lin went to the chicken farmers in the suburbs early today, and picked up a lot of free-range pheasants to enter the store. Xiao Wang drove Cheng Lin and a car full of chickens in the store's van to return In the store, Xiao Wang stood at the door and said: "Hey, I'm out to unload the goods, move the chickens to the back kitchen! There are two boxes of eggs, be careful when you lift them!"
All the waiters in the store came out, Cheng Lin counted them, and said: "Pick a good old hen, pack it up and send it to Sister Yang later."
The young waiter who had just served Ren An hurriedly agreed, leaned over to Cheng Lin, pointed to the people sitting in the shop, and whispered: "The customer has been waiting for more than an hour, so he ordered a pot of green tea. Hey, it’s a bit like someone who wants to buy a secret recipe. I told him that the boss won’t sell it anymore, and he won’t leave. He said that he will wait for you to come back. If you don’t see me, boss, I will tell him that you won’t come today, so as not to follow the last time. It's like that person, pestering me all day."
Cheng Lin glanced at it and said, "It's okay, I told him, you are busy with your work." Then he walked into the shop.
Ren An was sitting with his back facing the door. The light outside was strong early in the morning, and the lights in the store were not fully turned on, making his vision a little darker. Cheng Lin only saw a figure sitting upright.He also thought about it, people with a good posture are generally well-mannered, and they don't particularly pester people, right? His sauce recipe is really not for sale.
With a polite smile on his face, Cheng Lin turned to the other side of the table and said, "Hello, I heard that you..."
Cheng Lin stared at the person in front of him, stuck, crashed, and his mind went blank.
Ren An spent more than an hour sitting in Cheng Lin's shop to settle his emotions. In the past two years, he is no longer the big boy who still smiled brightly on campus from time to time. The tempering of failures and successes in the past gradually created the majestic aura of standing at the top of the pyramid and grasping wealth and power. At this moment, he sat there calmly, looking at Cheng Lin, without speaking.
Cheng Lin's smile froze on his face, he avoided Ren An's sight obviously in a panic, and glanced around, as if confirming whether this was a dream or not. Greeting and passing by, Xiao Wang came over and asked, "There are guests so early."
But those people seemed to have turned into phantoms in Cheng Lin's sight and hearing. He looked at Ren An again, and softly called out: "Brother..."
Ren An still looked at him with deep eyes, as if he wanted to pierce Cheng Lin's soul, and finally said, "Sit."
Cheng Lin sat down slowly with straight eyes, Ren An pushed the teacup in front of Cheng Lin to Cheng Lin, and said, "Drink some hot tea, give you a few minutes to calm down, and then tell the truth."
Cheng Lin held the teacup, lowered his head, too many emotions gathered in his mind for a while and became blank. He couldn't explain why the first feeling he felt when he saw Ren An turned out to be fear. It appeared when I missed Ren An, and the bad ones came in a surge when we met unexpectedly, the despair and helplessness in the last week before leaving, those unkind accusations and insults, and the coldness of the heavy rain, obviously deliberately going Forget it, but at this moment it clearly appears in my mind like an unforgettable memory.In Cheng Lin's hazy vision, it seemed that when he saw Ren An in the ward for the last time, Ren An was lying weakly on the hospital bed covered in bandages.
Cheng Lin's hand holding the teacup was a little trembling, he raised his head with difficulty, and said, "Brother, I'm doing well, and I'm ready to take root here."
Ren An's face became more serious. Cheng Lin suddenly saw Sister Yang walking to the door, and he didn't know what was going on in his mind. At that time, Cheng Lin might really be afraid of what happened in the past. His barren and difficult years of growing up The poor courage he had accumulated in the past could no longer allow him to continue to face the challenge again. A single-celled paramecium knew how to avoid salt water, let alone a human being with complicated emotions?
Cheng Lin made a decision in a very short time. He walked quickly to the door, supported the pregnant sister Yang, and said, "Brother, let me introduce you. This is my wife. We got married at the end of last year." , soon... soon to give birth."
In Ren An's various predictions, this is actually a very possible one. Ren An thought of it, but just faced and accepted it suddenly, his heart still thumped, staring at Cheng Lin and the pregnant woman who was obviously about to give birth, for a while Completely lost language.
Sister Yang glanced at Cheng Lin suspiciously, but Cheng Lin shook Sister Yang's hand silently, and Sister Yang stopped talking, and said in cooperation: "Ah, hello, friend Cheng Lin?"
Ren An stood up, his body seemed a little unsteady, he helped the table, Cheng Lin's eyes were red, and he said: "Brother, let me find you a hotel and treat you to dinner at noon."
Ren An nodded, and walked past Cheng Lin. After Ren An passed by, Cheng Lin dared to show a face about to cry, pursed his mouth and secretly wiped his eyes, and wiped away the traces before continuing: "Diagonally opposite It's a hotel, the best in this county, if you haven't booked it, brother, I'll book it for you."
The two walked back and forth in silence. When they arrived at the hotel, Cheng Lin quickly walked two steps past Ren An. He went to the front desk to open a room and asked Ren An for his ID card. After finishing the process, he took the room card and handed it to Ren An, saying: "Brother, I have to go back to the store to prepare for business. If you come over at noon, I will reserve a private room for you. Please give me the signboard of the store." vegetable."
Ren An took the room card and continued to nod silently.
Cheng Lin smiled dryly at Ren An, turned around and walked out of the hotel quickly.
Ren An got into the elevator and went upstairs with no expression on his face. To be honest, he was hurt by Cheng Lin's polite and distant attitude, as well as the news of his marriage and the fact that he was about to become a father.Looking back on the past, Cheng Lin may have been a child with a normal orientation at first, but he would only change when he met himself. Now he is far away from the capital city full of malice and prejudice, and is doing well in this small county with beautiful scenery. From the beginning, starting a family and starting a business may be a better life for Cheng Lin. What qualifications do he have to make a fortune?What he is obsessed with is nothing but the demon in his heart.
But even so, he and Cheng Lin will become a family. After all, he is very likely to be the biological son of the godmother, Cheng Lin's wife will become his younger sibling, and Cheng Lin's son will call him uncle. Cheng Lin was already in a pleasant surprise, and he was about to welcome the life of his little grandchildren, which was even more joyful. The godmother's family, which has been struggling with grief for so many years, may finally have a turning point, which is better than Cheng Lin staying with him There will be a better ending.
Ren An thought so, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that his face was already wet. He went to the bathroom to wash his face, pressed his painful head, collapsed on the sofa and sighed heavily, his chest tight As if he was suffocating, where's his little fool?He obviously found Cheng Lin, but what about Xiao Dai who only belongs to him?What about his stay?He lost it two years ago, and maybe this loss will last his whole life, and he will never get it back.
Compared with the heart-wrenching days of looking for Cheng Lin, Ren An felt that this moment was the most broken. His reason was stretched at the last string, and his red eyes convinced himself over and over again, forcing himself to accept the reality over and over again, thinking This is a better choice for Cheng Lin.
Cheng Lin's condition was not much better when he returned to the hotel, Sister Yang was still sitting there waiting, Cheng Lin said: "Sister, don't ask anything, if my brother is here these days, you can pretend to be my wife Now, please, sister, I'll explain to you later." After Cheng Lin finished speaking, he hid in the corner of the back kitchen and began to pick vegetables, with his back to everyone, while picking celery leaves, while shedding tears, He thought that he had to survive anyway, he and his brother are not from the same world, staying by his side will only cause more trouble, it will only split his family, and it will only bring bad things, his brother should have better things I have better people to accompany me in the future, I don't have any skills, and I am not worthy of my brother.
The celery in Cheng Lin's hand was beaten with tears as if it had been soaked in water. Xiao Wang stood not far away and asked tentatively, "Xiao Lin, are you okay?"
Cheng Lin wiped away his tears, picked vegetables vigorously, and said: "It's okay, there's nothing wrong, I'll come out to the private room at noon, and I'll treat someone to dinner." Xiao Wang responded and walked away, signaling everyone to stay away Boss, the boss is thinking about something.Cheng Lin said to himself over and over again: "You have to hold on, you have to hold on."
At noon, Ren An appeared in the hotel lobby with a dark complexion. He happened to meet Chen Min and Wang Wei who were going to eat at Cheng Lin's restaurant. Luo said: "Brother Ren, long time no see! See you now!"
Chen Min grabbed Wang Wei by the collar and threw him far away, saying, "Meet?"
Seeing that Ren An's expression was not looking good, Wang Wei pulled Chen Min's shirt hem, and whispered, "Shouldn't Jiu Biesheng's newlywed cat be patting around the house? Why is his face so ugly? It looks like a burnt potsticker pancake."
Ren An stared straight at the street outside the hotel, as if he really didn't hear Wang Wei's muttering, and said to Chen Min in a difficult and cautious way: "Cheng Lin is married, and a child will be born soon, we Respect his choice, and when we meet him later, everyone speak with discretion, don't embarrass Cheng Lin."
Chen Min was taken aback, he had thought about this result, but seeing Ren An's depressed look, he felt a little sad, and said, "Well, I understand."
Wang Wei was also stunned, and said in amazement: "No... what's the matter? Hey, listen to me."
The ghost heard him say that Ren An was about to stride away, Chen Min turned his head and glared at him, Wang Wei was so aggrieved that he hurried forward to stop Ren An, then pulled Ren An and Chen Min on the sofa in the hotel lobby, and said impatiently He said: "No, the plot development is not right, brothers, I worked so hard to get you to this corner, this is thinking about the beauty of adults! How can a comedy become a tragedy! It's not that my work is not in place, Brother Ren, you Don't get excited, there is definitely something strange about this matter, I have already inquired about it, Cheng Lin is now a well-known diamond king, and he doesn't even have a partner, how can he have a child? The hotel waiters and girls know it, Every day I look at Boss Xiao Cheng across the street, if you don’t believe me, I’ll bring someone over and ask!”
Wang Wei shouted loudly for the beautiful manager in the lobby, but Ren An had already got up and walked quickly towards the gate with red eyes and dark face, Wang Wei shouted: "Brother Ren, don't go! Listen..."
Chen Min grabbed the yellow hair on Wang Wei's forehead, and said, "Stop shouting, I said you can do something occasionally."
When Ren An came to Cheng Lin's shop again, Cheng Lin was taking off his apron and preparing to go to the hotel to take over Ren An's dinner. Except for red eye circles and swollen eyelids, everything else was normal. When he saw Ren An coming in, he said, "Brother, I I'm getting ready to pick you up."
Ren An stared at Cheng Lin, and suddenly pulled Cheng Lin's wrist and walked out quickly, dragging Cheng Lin staggeringly, the bones in his wrist seemed to be crushed, and every ounce of strength told Ren An's current situation. On the verge of rage.
The love of longing and nostalgia is real, the distress and pity are also real, and the anger and disappointment at this moment are even more real.
Ren An pulled Cheng Lin out of the store, walked into the narrow alley gap between the two stores, and ruthlessly pushed Cheng Lin down on the rough wall, staring at Cheng Lin with red eyes, as if everything erupted in an instant. With suppressed emotions, he roared: "Why are you lying? Why are you lying?"
Cheng Lin's eardrums were hurt by Ren An's shock, he had always been humble and polite in his impression, and he had never spoken so loudly out of control, a little frightened, Ren An continued to shout: "Do you know how many people have worried about you during this time? You were so happy when you left, didn’t you! What about me? Have you considered me? Who said you wouldn’t leave even if you were beaten to death? Am I lying? Why are you lying!"
Cheng Lin didn't expect to be exposed so quickly, and his heart was broken by Ren An's yelling, big tears fell down, unable to say anything, Ren An was still angry, and let go of Cheng Lin against the wall Cheng Lin fell to the ground, and Ren An continued to say bitterly: "You don't want to go back, I understand, but don't lie to me, I even thought that if you don't want to face the old Hurt, no matter where you want to stay, I can let go of everything and come to accompany you, but I didn’t expect you to be so worthless, and you shouldn’t lie to me if you deceive the whole world. Is it fun? Is it interesting? Okay, I don’t care about you anymore , how you like to live, how you live, I think you live better without me, I misjudged you. There are some things that I didn’t tell you face to face two years ago, but now I say them together, the harm my family caused to you I am deeply sorry, and I am willing to use other means to make up for it, whether it is condolence money or an apology statement, you can say whatever you want, and then one yard will be one yard, if you don’t want to see me, I will just leave, you follow your terms Just move on with your thoughts.”
Ren An glanced at Cheng Lin again, suppressed his tears, turned around and left, Cheng Lin was startled, obviously panicked, kneeling and threw himself forward, hugging Ren An's leg tightly, crying like he was about to die , talking intermittently: "Brother, brother, I... I was wrong, I was wrong, you... don't go... don't go."
Standing at the entrance of the alley with half of his head peeping, Wang Wei clicked his tongue twice, and Chen Min carried him into the shop. Wang Wei said with emotion: "We should set up a video camera, it's more sensational than acting in a movie, and everyone is Big coffee."
Chen Min looked at the menu calmly, and after a while, he suddenly said something, "You cried much worse than Cheng Lin that day, and you passed out and were sent to the hospital."
Wang Wei shut up and didn't dare to comment on nonsense.
The author has something to say: Surprised or not, happy or not?Whoever forgot to take the precious sword, take it back!The warehouse is full!
Chen Min called again, Ren An picked it up and said, "I'll drive there right away, who took the photo?"
Chen Min said: "Do you drive by yourself? I checked, the distance is not close, and there are many mountain roads, but it seems that there are no suitable flights and trains. How about it, tell me a place and I will meet you and drive with you in rotation. You're too hard on your own."
Ren An was silent for a while, and said: "Okay, I'm leaving now, see you at the intersection of the expressway."
Chen Min immediately asked a friend in the store to drive him there, hesitating whether to inform Daewoo, but thinking that Wang Wei's guy was also in the county town, he was afraid that Wang Wei's big mouth would cause trouble, so he didn't say anything, and went directly to meet Ren An .When Chen Min arrived, Ren An was already waiting. Chen Min was a little surprised when he saw Ren An. Ren An's eyes were bloodshot and his expression was tense. The co-pilot said in relief: "Everyone has confirmed the location, you can relax, I will drive first, you take your time."
The highway in the middle of the night was very smooth. Chen Min drove the car at a high speed and steadily, and played some soothing music to relax Ren An's nerves. However, he glanced at Ren An from the corner of his eye and saw the knuckles of his hands holding the phone turned white, so he found a topic Said: "Wang Wei found out. He and his relatives were engaged in real estate development projects in the county. He saw Cheng Lin and quickly told me."
Chen Min simply talked about the topic, teasing Wang Wei's brilliant performance during this period, and finally concluded: "This guy is still extorting me through Cheng Lin's affairs, and wants to develop a further relationship with me. Let's see how I deal with him when I get there."
Interrupted by Chen Min, Ren An was slightly distracted, his face turned normal, and he said, "Didn't alarm Cheng Lin."
"No, I warned Wang Wei, and he secretly took pictures and hid." Chen Min said, and added: "However, you should also be mentally prepared. Wang Wei asked the hotel staff and said that Cheng Lin Now the hotel business is booming, and he is a well-known small boss. Hearing this attitude, he should be doing well. If... just in case..." Chen Min felt that there was no need to make things too clear, Ren An said How can a thoughtful and prudent smart person fail to think of various results?Maybe it's because I can predict all kinds of results that I'm so nervous. This kind of thing is more timid than being close to home, but it is several levels more serious.
Ren An looked at the road ahead silently, and said after a while: "Thank you."
When passing the gas station on the way, Chen Min and Ren An switched meetings. Ren An simply had no rules at all. Turning the steering wheel to overtake those big trucks and buses is like making a special effects movie. Chen Min couldn't stand it, so he asked Ren An to stop at the next rest stop, and he changed over again, and bought some bottles of Nutrition Express for Ren An, saying : "Calm down, calm down, I understand your feelings, but we have to drive safely, meeting with fate is fundamental."
Ren An kept a straight face and said nothing, Chen Min simply became a full-time driver, and drove directly to the county according to the navigation.

It is dark and the navigation is sometimes not very effective. After more than one o'clock, I finally touched the road into the county seat.
Chen Min parked the car on the side of the road, he drove all night, his eyes were red, and he was as good as Ren An, the cigarettes he brought with him and the spare cigarettes in Ren An's car were smoked by the two of them along the way, and there were only two left. , Chen Min broke up with Ren An, clicked on it, sighed deeply, and said, "What's the matter? Go straight over?"
Ren An nodded, Chen Min continued to get in the car and drove, and found out the street where "Brother Yang Stewed Pot" was located.Chen Min thought for a while, and asked, "I'll go find a hotel first, and avoid it for now, you and Xiao Lin will meet first, and talk about things, don't be impulsive."
Ren An thanked him and got out of the car.
He stood across the road, looking at the restaurant with "Brother Yang Stew Pot" hanging in front of him.The size of the restaurant is not small, the door has been opened early in the morning, but it is not open, there are a few waiters inside cleaning and wiping the glass.
Ren An suddenly calmed down a bit. It seemed that Cheng Lin was doing well.He walked to the door of the restaurant and stepped into the store. A young guy in waiter clothes saw him and came up to say hello: "Hello! We open at ten o'clock, and we don't have breakfast yet, why don't you go to the breakfast shop in front?"
Ren An sat down at a table and said, "Pour me a glass of water."
The waiter was trained by Cheng Lin to understand the principle of "everyone is a customer when entering the door". In addition, Ren An's extraordinary aura is overwhelming. The face that has been quite serious for the past few years is full of evil spirits because of staying up late and being nervous. What about the waiter? Without asking too much, Li Suo turned around and poured water. When he came over with the teapot, he asked, "Would you like to try the new tea in the store? The local green tea is the first crop of this year, and it tastes good."

It's a very light green tea. Ren An looked at the tender green tea leaves floating in the cup, and his mood was slightly calmed by the curling heat. He asked, "What time does your boss usually come?"
The waiter thought about it and said, "Before ten o'clock, usually around nine o'clock, are you looking for the boss?"
Ren An took a sip of hot tea and asked again, "Is your surname Cheng? Cheng Lin?"
The young waiter was very chatty, and said: "Hey, you are an expert. Outsiders usually think that the owner of our shop is named Yang. Did you come here to buy the secret recipe for stew pot sauce from our boss Xiao Cheng? Our boss doesn't sell it! If there's anything else, I'll give the boss a call."
Ren An put down the teacup and said, "No, I'll wait."
Ren An carefully looked at the decoration in the store. It was simple, tidy, and warm. The menus and posters on the wall, as well as the small decorations on the partitions on the wall, showed Cheng Lin's intentions everywhere. Decorating Xiaodai Malatang is the same as back then, he is still so full of vigor, working diligently to achieve his goal step by step.Ren An suddenly felt very relieved and full of pride. He did not believe in Cheng Lin, and his little boy really lived a good life and worked hard.
It is said that while Ren An was waiting for Cheng Lin, Chen Min called Wang Wei and asked, "Did you clean it?"
Wang Wei was taken aback, and asked, "Huh?"
Chen Min stood in the hotel lobby and asked, "Which room do you have?"
Wang Wei was even more stunned, and continued: "Huh?"
Chen Min: "I'm here, come out to pick you up."
Wang Wei: "Huh?!"
Wang Wei reported the room number like a fool, and Chen Min came over within 3 minutes, grabbed Wang Wei's neck and put him on the bed as soon as he entered the door, Wang Wei was so frightened that he shouted: "I, I, I am not ready! !!"
Chen Min laughed miserably, picked up Wang Wei's nightgown and pinched Wang Wei's ass fiercely, causing Wang Wei to tear up and howl like a slaughtered pig. Chen Min said: "Gold card? Treat you for a week A meal? You still want to date me, right? Why are you howling when you are so fat? Huh? Ask brother to work harder? Huh?" He pinched him twice again.
The pain in this buttock is endless aftertaste, Chen Min is the strength of an athlete who has practiced tennis for many years, the pain caused Wang Wei to roll around on the bed, clutching his buttocks, Chen Min vented his anger, and drove all night The tiredness came up, and he said: "Get me a breakfast, I will sleep."
After speaking, spread it on the bed, squinted it with the pillow on it, Wang Wei was still a little dazed while covering his butt with tears in his eyes, he couldn't react, why did Chen Min appear on his bed and ravage his butt like a living person , whispered "fuck" for a while.
Cheng Lin went to the chicken farmers in the suburbs early today, and picked up a lot of free-range pheasants to enter the store. Xiao Wang drove Cheng Lin and a car full of chickens in the store's van to return In the store, Xiao Wang stood at the door and said: "Hey, I'm out to unload the goods, move the chickens to the back kitchen! There are two boxes of eggs, be careful when you lift them!"
All the waiters in the store came out, Cheng Lin counted them, and said: "Pick a good old hen, pack it up and send it to Sister Yang later."
The young waiter who had just served Ren An hurriedly agreed, leaned over to Cheng Lin, pointed to the people sitting in the shop, and whispered: "The customer has been waiting for more than an hour, so he ordered a pot of green tea. Hey, it’s a bit like someone who wants to buy a secret recipe. I told him that the boss won’t sell it anymore, and he won’t leave. He said that he will wait for you to come back. If you don’t see me, boss, I will tell him that you won’t come today, so as not to follow the last time. It's like that person, pestering me all day."
Cheng Lin glanced at it and said, "It's okay, I told him, you are busy with your work." Then he walked into the shop.
Ren An was sitting with his back facing the door. The light outside was strong early in the morning, and the lights in the store were not fully turned on, making his vision a little darker. Cheng Lin only saw a figure sitting upright.He also thought about it, people with a good posture are generally well-mannered, and they don't particularly pester people, right? His sauce recipe is really not for sale.
With a polite smile on his face, Cheng Lin turned to the other side of the table and said, "Hello, I heard that you..."
Cheng Lin stared at the person in front of him, stuck, crashed, and his mind went blank.
Ren An spent more than an hour sitting in Cheng Lin's shop to settle his emotions. In the past two years, he is no longer the big boy who still smiled brightly on campus from time to time. The tempering of failures and successes in the past gradually created the majestic aura of standing at the top of the pyramid and grasping wealth and power. At this moment, he sat there calmly, looking at Cheng Lin, without speaking.
Cheng Lin's smile froze on his face, he avoided Ren An's sight obviously in a panic, and glanced around, as if confirming whether this was a dream or not. Greeting and passing by, Xiao Wang came over and asked, "There are guests so early."
But those people seemed to have turned into phantoms in Cheng Lin's sight and hearing. He looked at Ren An again, and softly called out: "Brother..."
Ren An still looked at him with deep eyes, as if he wanted to pierce Cheng Lin's soul, and finally said, "Sit."
Cheng Lin sat down slowly with straight eyes, Ren An pushed the teacup in front of Cheng Lin to Cheng Lin, and said, "Drink some hot tea, give you a few minutes to calm down, and then tell the truth."
Cheng Lin held the teacup, lowered his head, too many emotions gathered in his mind for a while and became blank. He couldn't explain why the first feeling he felt when he saw Ren An turned out to be fear. It appeared when I missed Ren An, and the bad ones came in a surge when we met unexpectedly, the despair and helplessness in the last week before leaving, those unkind accusations and insults, and the coldness of the heavy rain, obviously deliberately going Forget it, but at this moment it clearly appears in my mind like an unforgettable memory.In Cheng Lin's hazy vision, it seemed that when he saw Ren An in the ward for the last time, Ren An was lying weakly on the hospital bed covered in bandages.
Cheng Lin's hand holding the teacup was a little trembling, he raised his head with difficulty, and said, "Brother, I'm doing well, and I'm ready to take root here."
Ren An's face became more serious. Cheng Lin suddenly saw Sister Yang walking to the door, and he didn't know what was going on in his mind. At that time, Cheng Lin might really be afraid of what happened in the past. His barren and difficult years of growing up The poor courage he had accumulated in the past could no longer allow him to continue to face the challenge again. A single-celled paramecium knew how to avoid salt water, let alone a human being with complicated emotions?
Cheng Lin made a decision in a very short time. He walked quickly to the door, supported the pregnant sister Yang, and said, "Brother, let me introduce you. This is my wife. We got married at the end of last year." , soon... soon to give birth."
In Ren An's various predictions, this is actually a very possible one. Ren An thought of it, but just faced and accepted it suddenly, his heart still thumped, staring at Cheng Lin and the pregnant woman who was obviously about to give birth, for a while Completely lost language.
Sister Yang glanced at Cheng Lin suspiciously, but Cheng Lin shook Sister Yang's hand silently, and Sister Yang stopped talking, and said in cooperation: "Ah, hello, friend Cheng Lin?"
Ren An stood up, his body seemed a little unsteady, he helped the table, Cheng Lin's eyes were red, and he said: "Brother, let me find you a hotel and treat you to dinner at noon."
Ren An nodded, and walked past Cheng Lin. After Ren An passed by, Cheng Lin dared to show a face about to cry, pursed his mouth and secretly wiped his eyes, and wiped away the traces before continuing: "Diagonally opposite It's a hotel, the best in this county, if you haven't booked it, brother, I'll book it for you."
The two walked back and forth in silence. When they arrived at the hotel, Cheng Lin quickly walked two steps past Ren An. He went to the front desk to open a room and asked Ren An for his ID card. After finishing the process, he took the room card and handed it to Ren An, saying: "Brother, I have to go back to the store to prepare for business. If you come over at noon, I will reserve a private room for you. Please give me the signboard of the store." vegetable."
Ren An took the room card and continued to nod silently.
Cheng Lin smiled dryly at Ren An, turned around and walked out of the hotel quickly.
Ren An got into the elevator and went upstairs with no expression on his face. To be honest, he was hurt by Cheng Lin's polite and distant attitude, as well as the news of his marriage and the fact that he was about to become a father.Looking back on the past, Cheng Lin may have been a child with a normal orientation at first, but he would only change when he met himself. Now he is far away from the capital city full of malice and prejudice, and is doing well in this small county with beautiful scenery. From the beginning, starting a family and starting a business may be a better life for Cheng Lin. What qualifications do he have to make a fortune?What he is obsessed with is nothing but the demon in his heart.
But even so, he and Cheng Lin will become a family. After all, he is very likely to be the biological son of the godmother, Cheng Lin's wife will become his younger sibling, and Cheng Lin's son will call him uncle. Cheng Lin was already in a pleasant surprise, and he was about to welcome the life of his little grandchildren, which was even more joyful. The godmother's family, which has been struggling with grief for so many years, may finally have a turning point, which is better than Cheng Lin staying with him There will be a better ending.
Ren An thought so, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that his face was already wet. He went to the bathroom to wash his face, pressed his painful head, collapsed on the sofa and sighed heavily, his chest tight As if he was suffocating, where's his little fool?He obviously found Cheng Lin, but what about Xiao Dai who only belongs to him?What about his stay?He lost it two years ago, and maybe this loss will last his whole life, and he will never get it back.
Compared with the heart-wrenching days of looking for Cheng Lin, Ren An felt that this moment was the most broken. His reason was stretched at the last string, and his red eyes convinced himself over and over again, forcing himself to accept the reality over and over again, thinking This is a better choice for Cheng Lin.
Cheng Lin's condition was not much better when he returned to the hotel, Sister Yang was still sitting there waiting, Cheng Lin said: "Sister, don't ask anything, if my brother is here these days, you can pretend to be my wife Now, please, sister, I'll explain to you later." After Cheng Lin finished speaking, he hid in the corner of the back kitchen and began to pick vegetables, with his back to everyone, while picking celery leaves, while shedding tears, He thought that he had to survive anyway, he and his brother are not from the same world, staying by his side will only cause more trouble, it will only split his family, and it will only bring bad things, his brother should have better things I have better people to accompany me in the future, I don't have any skills, and I am not worthy of my brother.
The celery in Cheng Lin's hand was beaten with tears as if it had been soaked in water. Xiao Wang stood not far away and asked tentatively, "Xiao Lin, are you okay?"
Cheng Lin wiped away his tears, picked vegetables vigorously, and said: "It's okay, there's nothing wrong, I'll come out to the private room at noon, and I'll treat someone to dinner." Xiao Wang responded and walked away, signaling everyone to stay away Boss, the boss is thinking about something.Cheng Lin said to himself over and over again: "You have to hold on, you have to hold on."
At noon, Ren An appeared in the hotel lobby with a dark complexion. He happened to meet Chen Min and Wang Wei who were going to eat at Cheng Lin's restaurant. Luo said: "Brother Ren, long time no see! See you now!"
Chen Min grabbed Wang Wei by the collar and threw him far away, saying, "Meet?"
Seeing that Ren An's expression was not looking good, Wang Wei pulled Chen Min's shirt hem, and whispered, "Shouldn't Jiu Biesheng's newlywed cat be patting around the house? Why is his face so ugly? It looks like a burnt potsticker pancake."
Ren An stared straight at the street outside the hotel, as if he really didn't hear Wang Wei's muttering, and said to Chen Min in a difficult and cautious way: "Cheng Lin is married, and a child will be born soon, we Respect his choice, and when we meet him later, everyone speak with discretion, don't embarrass Cheng Lin."
Chen Min was taken aback, he had thought about this result, but seeing Ren An's depressed look, he felt a little sad, and said, "Well, I understand."
Wang Wei was also stunned, and said in amazement: "No... what's the matter? Hey, listen to me."
The ghost heard him say that Ren An was about to stride away, Chen Min turned his head and glared at him, Wang Wei was so aggrieved that he hurried forward to stop Ren An, then pulled Ren An and Chen Min on the sofa in the hotel lobby, and said impatiently He said: "No, the plot development is not right, brothers, I worked so hard to get you to this corner, this is thinking about the beauty of adults! How can a comedy become a tragedy! It's not that my work is not in place, Brother Ren, you Don't get excited, there is definitely something strange about this matter, I have already inquired about it, Cheng Lin is now a well-known diamond king, and he doesn't even have a partner, how can he have a child? The hotel waiters and girls know it, Every day I look at Boss Xiao Cheng across the street, if you don’t believe me, I’ll bring someone over and ask!”
Wang Wei shouted loudly for the beautiful manager in the lobby, but Ren An had already got up and walked quickly towards the gate with red eyes and dark face, Wang Wei shouted: "Brother Ren, don't go! Listen..."
Chen Min grabbed the yellow hair on Wang Wei's forehead, and said, "Stop shouting, I said you can do something occasionally."
When Ren An came to Cheng Lin's shop again, Cheng Lin was taking off his apron and preparing to go to the hotel to take over Ren An's dinner. Except for red eye circles and swollen eyelids, everything else was normal. When he saw Ren An coming in, he said, "Brother, I I'm getting ready to pick you up."
Ren An stared at Cheng Lin, and suddenly pulled Cheng Lin's wrist and walked out quickly, dragging Cheng Lin staggeringly, the bones in his wrist seemed to be crushed, and every ounce of strength told Ren An's current situation. On the verge of rage.
The love of longing and nostalgia is real, the distress and pity are also real, and the anger and disappointment at this moment are even more real.
Ren An pulled Cheng Lin out of the store, walked into the narrow alley gap between the two stores, and ruthlessly pushed Cheng Lin down on the rough wall, staring at Cheng Lin with red eyes, as if everything erupted in an instant. With suppressed emotions, he roared: "Why are you lying? Why are you lying?"
Cheng Lin's eardrums were hurt by Ren An's shock, he had always been humble and polite in his impression, and he had never spoken so loudly out of control, a little frightened, Ren An continued to shout: "Do you know how many people have worried about you during this time? You were so happy when you left, didn’t you! What about me? Have you considered me? Who said you wouldn’t leave even if you were beaten to death? Am I lying? Why are you lying!"
Cheng Lin didn't expect to be exposed so quickly, and his heart was broken by Ren An's yelling, big tears fell down, unable to say anything, Ren An was still angry, and let go of Cheng Lin against the wall Cheng Lin fell to the ground, and Ren An continued to say bitterly: "You don't want to go back, I understand, but don't lie to me, I even thought that if you don't want to face the old Hurt, no matter where you want to stay, I can let go of everything and come to accompany you, but I didn’t expect you to be so worthless, and you shouldn’t lie to me if you deceive the whole world. Is it fun? Is it interesting? Okay, I don’t care about you anymore , how you like to live, how you live, I think you live better without me, I misjudged you. There are some things that I didn’t tell you face to face two years ago, but now I say them together, the harm my family caused to you I am deeply sorry, and I am willing to use other means to make up for it, whether it is condolence money or an apology statement, you can say whatever you want, and then one yard will be one yard, if you don’t want to see me, I will just leave, you follow your terms Just move on with your thoughts.”
Ren An glanced at Cheng Lin again, suppressed his tears, turned around and left, Cheng Lin was startled, obviously panicked, kneeling and threw himself forward, hugging Ren An's leg tightly, crying like he was about to die , talking intermittently: "Brother, brother, I... I was wrong, I was wrong, you... don't go... don't go."
Standing at the entrance of the alley with half of his head peeping, Wang Wei clicked his tongue twice, and Chen Min carried him into the shop. Wang Wei said with emotion: "We should set up a video camera, it's more sensational than acting in a movie, and everyone is Big coffee."
Chen Min looked at the menu calmly, and after a while, he suddenly said something, "You cried much worse than Cheng Lin that day, and you passed out and were sent to the hospital."
Wang Wei shut up and didn't dare to comment on nonsense.
The author has something to say: Surprised or not, happy or not?Whoever forgot to take the precious sword, take it back!The warehouse is full!
