forced to zero

Morning.Xie Jingran got dressed and pulled Tan Siyuan's quilt: "Brother Tan, I'm going back to OneNight Stand, you...do you want to go too?"

"Huh?" Tan Siyuan turned over in a daze, "Go back by yourself, I'll sleep again."

Xie Jingran tucked in the quilt for Tan Siyuan: "Alright, don't sleep too late."

Tan Siyuan muttered a few words, closed his eyes and continued to sleep.

When he got up in the morning, Xie Jingran habitually looked at his phone first, and saw that Xu Tong had called him and sent him a WeChat message, asking him to go back today.So he had no choice but to break off the octopus Tan Siyuan stuck to him, and got up.

Tan Siyuan gave Xie Jingran a copy of his car keys, saying it was for convenience.Because the bus and subway were too crowded, Tan Siyuan didn't want to experience it again after experiencing it once, so he gave Xie Jingran a copy of the car keys.

Xie Jingran wasn't sure what Xu Tong wanted to do with him, but it was probably because he hadn't returned to OneNightStand for a long time.After thinking about it, he took the car keys and drove Tan Siyuan's car back to the shop.

Although there is no stipulation in the contract that you cannot fall in love, but this job is special, and he knows that it is better not to find a partner.But when Tan Siyuan's face flashed in his mind, the corners of his mouth would inadvertently rise.

Tan Siyuan is too charismatic, and it is very exciting for him to control the other party, although he has not yet done it yet.

Tan Siyuan not only satisfies the longing and impulse deep in his heart, but also fills up the hole-ridden emptiness in his heart that was eaten away by reality and blows.Sometimes he also thinks, is this asking or love?He once tried to ignore Tan Siyuan, but he was unsuccessful.The man who pulled him was deeply engraved in his heart.

After parking the car in the parking lot, Xie Jingran walked into the OneNightStand that he hadn't stepped into for many days. As a store that provides special services, OneNightStand is usually only lively at night, and there are few people in the daytime, just a few hygienic waiters and a few hangover customers walking out.Xie Jingran picked up the book on the fifth floor, and when he went downstairs, he saw Xu Tong walking in.

"Yo, he's here too?" Xu Tong looked around, but didn't see Tan Siyuan, "I saw Siyuan's car? Why didn't I see anyone?"

"I drove."

Xu Tong glanced at the book Xie Jingran was holding, and asked with a half-smile, "Are you planning to come back?"

"No." Xie Jingran put the book aside, "What do you want from me?"

"It's nothing, Song Xi was looking for you last night, and he was a little angry when he didn't see you, so he made Lao Bai go away for a long time."

"What's wrong with him?" Xie Jingran frowned, he knew that Song Xi loved to play, but he couldn't imagine what Song Xi would do.

"I drank several bottles of wine for Lao Bai, and then came back not long after I made an appointment, saying that the service was not satisfactory." Xu Tong sighed, "I didn't want to care about it at first, but Lao Bai's reputation has also been affected. What's wrong with him."

"...I'll go and see Lao Bai later."

Xu Tong frowned, and said dissatisfiedly, "Shouldn't you go find Song Xi?"

"It's all in vain that I said so much?"

"It's not in vain. I'll go to Song Xi's side too. Is he coming tonight? I'll wait for him to come tonight. I'll go see Lao Bai first." Xie Jingran glanced at Xu Tong and suddenly smiled, "There are others something?"

"It's gone for now." Xu Tong crossed his arms in front of his chest and joked, "Are you with Siyuan?"

"Yes." Xie Jingran picked up a few Russian books, "Is Lao Bai at home?"

"Well, I asked for two days off with me. Although Siyuan is my friend, you are still my employee. I will still do what you should do. Do what you have to do, understand?"

"Understood." Xie Jingran nodded, didn't he just let him continue to receive customers, there is still more than a year, after more than a year, he can leave here.

"Okay, let's go, remember to come back tonight."

"Okay." Xie Jingran took two steps, then turned around suddenly, showing a big smile, and said, "Jiang Shuting came back yesterday, and brought a girl with her, I don't know who it is, I think she looks very close."

"He's a classmate." Xu Tong sneered, "I told me that I'm not interested."

Xie Jingran gave Xu Tong a half-believing glance, only to find that the other party was just grimacing.Sensing Xie Jingran's gaze, Xu Tong rolled his eyes at him: "Still leaving? Stay here to pick up the guests?"

Xie Jingran shook his head, and walked out of OneNightStand with an expression of seeing through life.

Seeing Xu Tong's expression, it seems that he doesn't care much about Jiang Shuting.Xie Jingran put the book on the car, and couldn't help imagining a big scene.He remembered that Xu Tong said before that he likes soft and easy to push down, and Jiang Shuting looks like a scumbag, and it's normal to look down on it.

After thinking wildly for a while, Xie Jingran drove to Lao Bai's house, and he didn't forget to buy a few catties of fruit on the way.After ringing the doorbell a few times, the door was opened from the inside, and Lao Bai's slightly haggard face came into view.

"Jing Ran? Why are you here?"

Xie Jingran raised the fruit in his hand: "I came to see you, Lao Xu told me about it."

"Come in first, I'll pour you a cup of tea." Lao Bai made room for Xie Jingran to come in. He glanced at the car parked outside and asked, "Your car?"

"No." Xie Jingran didn't say who it belonged to, he put the fruit aside, "Old Bai, why did Song Xi make things difficult for you?"

"It's nothing." Lao Bai couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Can you stop calling me Lao Bai, just call me in the store, and call me by my name outside."

"I can't help it for a while." Xie Jingran smiled.

Lao Bai's name is Bai Ye, and he doesn't have many friends. Most of the people he comes into contact with are the guests in OneNightStand.

Bai Ye shook his head, and threw out the messy thoughts in his mind: "Will you drink tea or wine?"

"Tea bar, brother Tan won't let me drink often."

Bai Ye paused while making tea, the hot water splashed onto the back of his hand, he dodged reflexively, the kettle was not held firmly, and fell to the ground with a "bang", the kettle shattered into several pieces, and the tea flowed all over the floor .

"What's wrong?" Xie Jingran hurried over when he heard the sound, and saw the redness on the back of Bai Ye's hand: "Why are you so careless?"

Bai Ye lowered his head, covering the expression on his face: "I didn't hold it firmly."

Xie Jingran looked at the debris on the ground, and pushed aside with his shoe: "Is there any burn ointment?"

"No. Don't worry about it, it's nothing serious, just a little red." Bai Ye raised his hand to show Xie Jingran, the back of his hand was dotted with several small blisters, as if he was accusing him.

"Uh...not just now."

"Is there any alcohol? Pick it up."

"Have."

In the home medicine box, Xie Jingran found burn ointment.After dealing with the back of Bai Ye's hand, another half an hour passed.He cleaned up the jug debris and mopped the floor.

"Oh, I finally came here, and I asked you to do the housework for me." Bai Ye smiled sheepishly, "I'll treat you to dinner another day."

"It's okay, I'll just come and see you. Part of what happened to Song Xi is my responsibility. He knows that I know you, so he took it out on you."

"Oh. Let's drink Coke." Bai Ye took two cans of Coke from the refrigerator, "You and Tan Siyuan..."

"Huh?" Xie Jingran unscrewed the lid of the Coke and took a sip, "I'm with him now."

"He..." Bai Ye looked at Xie Jingran, moved his lips, but finally said nothing.

"What's up with him?"

"What if I say he's not good?"

"What do you mean?"

"You are not suitable."

Xie Jingran raised the hand of the Coke bottle for a pause, and then took another sip of Coke as if nothing had happened: "It's up to him and I to define whether it's suitable. If he thinks it's suitable, I also think it's suitable, so there's nothing inappropriate."

"Sorry." Bai Ye looked at the back of his hand covered with burn ointment, and sighed silently.

"what happened to you?"

"Jing Ran."

"Ok?"

"Didn't you ask me if I liked you before?"

Xie Jingran put down the Coke, and slowly turned to look at Bai Ye.

"At that time, I just wanted to hide it, so I said no. I didn't expect you to believe it. Although I don't know if you believe it or not, but I..."

"Bai Ye." Xie Jingran stood up, "I'll go back first, brother Tan is still waiting for me."

Xie Jingran walked towards the door quickly, but Bai Ye's words "I have loved you for a long time" still lingered in his ears.After he went out, he got in the car and went straight back to Tan Siyuan's house.

Tan Siyuan was still asleep on the bed, Xie Jingran opened the door and saw Tan Siyuan's face calmed down a little.

Bai Ye's words were too magical, he didn't want to hear or reply.He never thought that Bai Ye would like him. Originally, it would be good for the two of them to be friends, but Bai Ye insisted on crossing this line.

Xie Jingran sat by the bed, staring at Tan Siyuan's sleeping face.After staring at it for a long time, I looked up at the clock and found that it was already noon.He threw off the quilt abruptly and slapped Tan Siyuan's buttocks.

Tan Siyuan squinted his eyes to look for the culprit, and saw Xie Jingran who looked worried.

"What's wrong?" Tan Siyuan put his arms around Xie Jingran's shoulder with a lazy voice, "Come on, tell brother, what's the trouble?" After finishing speaking, he rested his chin on his shoulder and continued to close his eyes Eye.

"Old Xu said that Song Xi made trouble for Lao Bai."

"Yeah." Tan Siyuan closed his eyes and exhaled on Xie Jingran's neck, "Then what?"

"Then... Laobai said he likes me." Xie Jingran suddenly felt his shoulders relax suddenly, and Tan Siyuan woke up instantly, staring at Xie Jingran with squinted eyes.

"...Don't be jealous yet." Xie Jingran subconsciously said, "I haven't finished yet."

"You said."

"Song Xi troubled Lao Bai. Lao Bai drank too much and asked for leave. I went to his house to see him, and then he..."

"He just confessed to you?"

"almost."

"What did you tell him?"

"Didn't say anything? Just asked me if I was with you, and then confessed suddenly, and I slipped... No, I just left."

"That's fine, just ignore him." Tan Siyuan is not like Xie Jingran, who is a noob in love. He has already seen that Laobai is interested in his duckling.The duckling in his family still looks confused and thinks that he just wants to be friends with him.

"I asked him before, and he said no."

"What did you ask? Ask him if he likes you?"

A certain duckling said confidently: "Yes."

"..." Tan Siyuan sighed, "Then you know that I am interested in you? You don't know that others are interested in you?"

"You miss my ass all day long, and...the way you look at me." Xie Jingran was also happy after finishing speaking, "I don't know how to say it, do you have a good heart? I used to think of you all the time."

Tan Siyuan felt better when he heard this sentence, and even the vinegar smell was gone.

"But at that time, I thought I just wanted to fight back, but I never thought that I actually liked you."

Tan Siyuan: "..."
