Tentative

The meal was boring, Shen Yizhuo didn't know what he was thinking, but he knew—maybe Qi Sheng just sent him such a "gift" on a whim, but he felt more and more annoyed.

Cong Yun's facial features don't look like Qu Zhe's, but the way he looks at people reminds him of Qu Zhe instantly.During the dinner, Qi Sheng's girlfriend seemed to be very happy, and from time to time, she moved to Qi Sheng's side for a couple of kisses, looking very bold.After dinner, Shou Xing proposed to go to the bar to continue the next game, Qi Sheng naturally agreed, but Shen Yizhuo really had the idea of ​​drinking, so he didn't refuse.

He was sitting in Lu Ziming's car, that Cong Yun didn't need to say much, he followed him into the car consciously, and sat beside him, keeping a distance just enough not to touch him.

"16 years old, aren't you still studying?" Lu Ziming asked while driving.

Cong Yun timidly said: "...dropped out of school."

"You're a little young." He sighed inexplicably, and then asked Shen Yizhuo, "Don't you want to come out today? You agreed again how to go to the bar."

"There's nothing to do, it doesn't matter." Shen Yizhuo said, looking at the street scene outside the window.

Cong Yun next to him didn't talk much—Qi Sheng was also amazing, he was able to find such a person who was [-]% similar to Qu Zhe in the past, and he could bring people to him.Shen Yizhuo thought about it, and suddenly said a little rudely: "How much money did Qi Sheng give you?"

"...Ah?" Cong Yun obviously didn't react, and looked at him stupidly.

Only then did Shen Yizhuo turn his head, with a soft smile on his face: "I mean, I don't need him to give it in the future, I will."

"Thank you, Young Master Shen..." He lowered his head uncomfortably.

Lu Ziming watched the two talking from the rearview mirror, and frowned in disgust—to be honest, such a cowardly, submissive person feels really bad.But he has also discovered that this person seems to be somewhat similar to the person Shen Yizhuo brought last time.

But that one seemed more calm, just very quiet.

Now this one, both in temperament and in the way he speaks, looks feminine, the kind of boy that Lu Ziming dislikes the most.Dropped out of school, was not studying, and was brought here by Qi Sheng as a gift for Shen Yizhuo, so Cong Yun's career is self-evident.

Even more disgusting.

When it comes to going to a bar, he will naturally choose M8, which has chains all over the country. Shen Yizhuo has long forgotten the incident of meeting Jiang Yuzhao here, and didn't think about it at all.The car stopped at the gate of M8, he and Cong Yun got out of the car first, and Lu Ziming went to park.

"How much is a month?" The two stood side by side at the door waiting for Lu Ziming, and Shen Yizhuo suddenly asked.

Cong Yun couldn't hear clearly this time, he seemed to be very concerned about his own remuneration: "Five... five thousand is okay?"

Shen Yizhuo turned his head and glanced at him: "Then you are really 'cheap'."

The disdain in his tone when he spoke at this moment was completely different from Shen Yizhuo who was gentle and polite when he was talking to others at the dinner table just now. Cong Yun obviously didn't expect his new boss to be this type, and he didn't know what to respond for a while.Shen Yizhuo took out his mobile phone, handed it to him and said, "Number."

"OK……"

Soon Lu Ziming came back, the two walked in front, and Cong Yun followed behind.Qi Sheng has always spent money on women and has never felt distressed. He booked a large booth on the second floor of M8 in advance. .With Cong Yun between him and Shen Yizhuo, it was inconvenient to talk, and gradually Lu Ziming started playing with the people on the other side.

In this atmosphere, Shen Yizhuo was a little withdrawn, he hardly spoke, and only lowered his head to play with his mobile phone.Cong Yun sat next to him and didn't know what to do.It happened that the waiter was carrying the fruit plate, and Cong Yun hurriedly picked up an orange with a small fork and handed it to Shen Yizhuo's mouth: "Master Shen, do you want to eat..."

"No." Shen Yizhuo refused without raising his head.

Cong Yun didn't dare to persuade, just ate the orange honestly, filled the clean glass on the table with wine, and handed it to Shen Yizhuo: "Then Young Master Shen..." "Don't do what you shouldn't do." Shen Yizhuo suddenly raised his head, took a deep look at him, and said coldly.

The light in M8 was dim, and Cong Yun couldn't see his expression clearly, but he could hear impatience just from his tone, it seemed that he was unnecessary.The boy quickly put down the cup, lowered his head and said in fear, "Yes, I'm sorry..."

I don't know if it was his illusion, but amidst the loud music, Shen Yizhuo seemed to "tsk" impatiently.Cong Yun carefully glanced at the screen of the other party's phone, only to see that he had been looking at the text message interface for a while.There were no messages from the other party on that interface, but gray messages lined up one after another.

After staying for a while, Shen Yizhuo got up irritably, said "I'm going to the bathroom" hastily, and left his seat.

Cong Yun watched his figure disappear into the crowd, picked up a piece of watermelon and stuffed it into his mouth, thinking while eating.

Qi Sheng was kind, and Shen Yizhuo knew that.If he doesn't like Cong Yun, Qi Sheng won't force it, there is no reluctance.Even if his movements and demeanor are all the same, it is not Qu Zhe.To others, they may feel very similar, but Shen Yizhuo doesn't.

When Cong Yun sat beside him, he couldn't feel the presence of Qu Zhe at all.

It can be seen that Wusiren is true. When he saw Cong Yun, he unconsciously looked at the text messages he had sent with Qu Zhe, and went back and forth several times to confirm that the other party still hadn't replied.

It's only been a month.

Qu Zhe's number is already empty, so naturally, no more text messages will come in.

But the phrase "go to the bathroom" is just an excuse, he was bored in it, so he found an excuse to get out of the M8 to catch his breath.He was standing in the shadow of the flower bed and grass directly opposite the door, looking indifferently at the cars passing by the roadside and the people coming and going around him, smoking a cigarette, and suddenly his mind was emptied.

"President Li is here, please come inside!"

A slightly familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ear, and Shen Yizhuo's drifting thoughts came back again. He turned around and suddenly saw Jiang Yuzhao in a casual suit.He was too tall and had obvious features. The "President Li" had already walked into M8 with his arms around the girl and smiled, while Jiang Yuzhao walked out a few steps with a man who looked like a manager beside him, talking in the open space.

They were very close, but they didn't notice Shen Yizhuo standing in the shadow.

Shen Yizhuo listened to the two talking about things in the M8 store, his voice was not loud and a little vague, so he couldn't hear the details clearly.But he wasn't interested in these things either. What he was interested in was the thought that suddenly popped into his mind when he found Jiang Yuzhao just now—whether Qu Zhe would still be with Jiang Yuzhao.

But Shen Yizhuo has never been an impulsive person, even though this idea keeps wandering around, he still stands calmly smoking a cigarette in the dark.When the cigarette was burned out, Jiang Yuzhao seemed to have finished speaking with the manager, and turned around towards the door to leave.

"Jiang Yuzhao!"

The body is one step ahead of the brain, Shen Yizhuo shouted.

Jiang Yuzhao turned around and asked in surprise, "Who?"

He walked out from the dark place unhurriedly, and he clearly saw Jiang Yuzhao's expression, and after seeing him again, his surprise turned into disgust.This is harmless, Jiang Yuzhao hates him, and he also hates Jiang Yuzhao.

Even so, Jiang Yuzhao neither went up nor left, but waved his hand to let the manager beside him go first.

The two stood facing each other, and it was Jiang Yuzhao who spoke first: "Is there something wrong?"

"Indeed," Shen Yizhuo said, "something happened."

"what's up?"

"... Qu Zhe," Shen Yizhuo suddenly felt his throat tickle when he said this word.He hadn't said this name for a long time, and now he said it with a sense of strangeness that made him uncomfortable, "Are you with me?"

Jiang Yuzhao frowned: "He is not with you, you still come to ask me."

"That's okay, thank you." Even in the face of disgusting people, Shen Yizhuo remained calm, without a hint of malice in his tone.After saying this, he walked straight towards the gate of M8, which means that this topic is over, and there is nothing else to say between them.

Who knew that Jiang Yuzhao, who was behind him, stopped him as if changing positions: "Wait, Shen Yizhuo, what do you mean by that?"

Jiang Yuzhao's personality was completely different from his, and he was very outgoing. After realizing the information revealed in Shen Yizhuo's words, Jiang Yuzhao walked up and grabbed Shen Yizhuo's shoulder without hesitation.

Shen Yizhuo broke away unhappily, turned around and said, "It's literally."

People kept coming and going from the door of M8, and the sound of music inside was also coming out, obviously it was not a good place to talk.The name "Qu Zhe" also has a special meaning to Jiang Yuzhao. He frowned and said, "It's not suitable to talk here... find a place to talk?"

Shen Yizhuo hesitated for a moment: "...OK."

There was a coffee shop across the road next to it. Jiang Yuzhao glanced at it lightly and proposed to go there.Shen Yizhuo nodded, and the two crossed the road one after another, keeping a distance that looked like strangers, and walked in.

It was Jiang Yuzhao who couldn't hold back and asked first: "What's wrong with Qu Zhe, isn't Qu Zhe with you?"

"He's gone." Shen Yizhuo only answered such a simple three words.

The coffee shop was about to close at this time, and the two of them were the only customers in the shop.Jiang Yuzhao was surprised by this, but was annoyed by Shen Yizhuo's expressionless expression: "You tried every means to get Qu Zhe away, and then let him go?"

"...Did I let him go?"

"Do you know that Qu Zhe has no relatives and no reason, so what will he do when he is alone?" Jiang Yuzhao spoke out of concern, and his voice raised a lot.

For him, Shen Yizhuo had nothing to hide, and the disgust between his brows was frank: "I know, but it's none of your business, I'm just asking, if it's with you... Forget it, it's not with you anyway." There."

Realizing that he was too emotional, Jiang Yuzhao quickly calmed down: "When did he leave?"

"A month ago."

"Did you not go to him?"

"Where can I find him?" Shen Yizhuo asked back.

That's right, it was the same four years ago, Qu Zhe disappeared without a sound, and no matter how hard he tried to find him, he had no direction at all.

Jiang Yuzhao lowered his head, looking disappointed.

It's not that Shen Yizhuo doesn't understand what Jiang Yuzhao is missing—he scoffs at Jiang Yuzhao's self-important "letting go".And people have to be responsible for what they say, do, and choices they make, and they can't blame others.

The two fell silent suddenly, and Jiang Yuzhao suddenly said after a long time, "Do you like him or not?"

"..." Shen Yizhuo didn't expect him to ask such a question, so he was at a loss for words.

Jiang Yuzhao asked again: "...Forget it, whether you like him or not, he likes you anyway."

"That's right, that's right." Shen Yizhuo nodded, "Then, if he comes to you, please tell me."

"He won't come to me. If he wants to hide, neither you nor I will find him."

Hearing this, Shen Yizhuo suddenly smiled: "He will come back."

Having said that, it seems that there is nothing else to talk about.The relationship between the two of them is nothing more than a year of high school classmates, other than that, there is no relationship, let alone a personal relationship.

Shen Yizhuo stood up first and said, "Then I'll go first."

"Ah."

Jiang Yuzhao ignored it, and sat blankly looking at the unmoving coffee that was just ordered in front of him.

"That question," Shen Yizhuo said suddenly as he passed by him, "I'm probably the same as you."

"Really." Jiang Yuzhao said softly, and Shen Yizhuo had already walked out of the coffee shop.
