double promise

In September, the movie "A Handful of Snow" was completed.

Xie Guan returned to City B exhausted from the film and television base in Province Z. When he landed at the Capital Airport, he felt like he was alive after a catastrophe.

From joining the group of "Bi Hai Chaosheng" in April to the film's finalization in September, Xie Guan has been doing overdraft-like high-intensity work for five full months.The movies he makes are all "grinded" one after another. The director is not a parallel importer, and he has very strict requirements on actors in all aspects.In order not to lose the chain, he has always maintained a state of nervousness, even if there are a few short breaks in the middle, he does not dare to take it lightly.Now that everything is over, the tight string is suddenly loosened, and the five-month backlog of exhaustion is immediately suppressed in a counterattack.

"Ah..." Xie Guan fell into the car, "I can't do it."

Seeing that he was exhausted like a dead dog, Huo Mingjun offered his thighs to him with great kindness as a pillow. Xie Guan changed into a comfortable position, his whole body was fluttering, his mind was empty, and he whimpered like a baby: "Mingjun, tired..."

A pair of hands landed on his temples, rubbing them with moderate force: "Well, you have worked hard."

There seemed to be a deep smile in Huo Mingjun's voice, Xie Guanqiang opened his eyelids and looked at him, his eyes fell into his dark eyes, and he immediately fled away guiltily.

The current state of the two of them is a stage where they are neither embarrassed nor awkward.Xie Guan and Huo Mingjun are well aware of each other's thoughts, and in actual actions, they have already crossed the line of "friendliness" and went straight to "intimacy". However, this layer of window paper has not been broken for a long time. His body and mind are stuck on the window frame of their friendship, like a useless appendix that cannot be cut off casually.

It always feels like something is missing.

Xie Guan is a person who is very good at self-reflection. He thought about it while filming on the set and felt that the problem might be his own.

——He liked Huo Mingjun very much, but he didn't like Huo Mingjun enough to "talk about love".

Two men with healthy bodies, sound personalities, and mature thoughts, no matter how high their hormones are, it is impossible for them to fall in love with junior high school students. The sky thunder stirs the fire, and love comes as soon as it is said. If you have a slight liking, you have to confess your love hold hands.

They have to worry too much - and these are secondary - the most important thing is that Xie Guan and Huo Mingjun are not easily tempted.

Such a person, at such an age, once tempted, it is likely to be a lifetime thing.

So Xie Guan had to be cautious, it was difficult for him to distinguish how much of his feelings for Huo Mingjun were out of gratitude, just like sometimes he couldn't help but think wildly, how much of Huo Mingjun's care for him was out of respect for Shi The empathy of the past that happened years ago.

But these concerns do not mean that there is no real relationship between them.Xie Guan really likes him, because of the congeniality between close friends, the respect and dependence towards a brother, the love purely from the perspective of appreciation, and a little bit of hot and bright heartbeat that cannot be concealed.

Like all the beautiful things in the world, I like it, I want to get close to it, I want to stop for it, I want to reach out and touch it... But there is no desire.

Possessive, controlling, and unspeakable desires.

It is hard to say that love and desire are completely separated. The illiterate surname Xie does not know what is called "platonic love". He only knows that starting from the most primitive and simple instinct, he wants to knock down the person he likes, and some indescribable things happen. , is the depth of love, and it will come when conditions are ripe.

But he didn't want to treat Huo Mingjun... like this or that.

From this, Xie Guan thought that there was still a gap as deep as a small river ditch between him and Huo Mingjun, and he had to take it easy, not be in a hurry, not be impulsive, and let time slowly fill it up.

Maybe it was because Huo Mingjun's thigh was too comfortable to use as a pillow, and Xie Guan closed his eyes and fell asleep after thinking about it. In his dream, he unconsciously turned over and reached out to hug Huo Mingjun's waist.

Huo Mingjun had a half-smile on his face, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he let him hold her, his hands moving non-stop.

The driver in front looked ahead tremblingly, not daring to look in the rearview mirror at all, for fear of being the eye of a needle.

Xie Guan was really tired this time, even Huo Mingjun carried him out of the car and carried him upstairs to the bedroom without disturbing him.

The furnishings in the house were the same as when he lived here last month, as if they were cleaned and tidied up every day, waiting for him to come back at any time.

Huo Mingjun turned the grass-green crab soft pillow over, let it stare at the load-bearing wall of the bedroom, and lowered his head to kiss Xie Guan's lips lightly.

When Lin Yao saw Huang Cheng standing alone in her office, she almost went crazy: "Where's Xie Guan?"

"He was too tired, he went back to rest first after getting off the plane."

Lin Yao stared at him suspiciously: "Which 'home' did he go back to?"

Huang Cheng said sternly: "Mr. Huo came to pick him up in person, and Xiao Xie voluntarily got in the car and went with him."

"Volunteer……"

Lin Yao suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of frustration.She can't be blamed for this, it's really Xie Guan who snatches people away every time he lands, Huo Mingjun moves too fast and guards too tightly, her manager can't catch up even if she wants to meet.Now he even directly assigns Huang Cheng to "notify" - not even "discuss", saying that Xie Guan will be on vacation this year and will not accept any film contracts within the year.

Lin Yao gritted her teeth bitterly, and said to herself, is Xie Guan's manager my wife or you? !

The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. She used to have half-doubts about the relationship between the two, but now she is very sure.As far as Huo Mingjun's way of protecting the calf, if it's not true love, can it still be father's love?

"Huang Cheng, let me ask you," Lin Yao said, "Xie Guan and Boss Huo, are they...in a relationship?"

"No." Huang Cheng shook his head affirmatively.

Lin Yao: "Huh?"

Huang Cheng thought for a while, and added cautiously: "But it's coming soon."

Lin Yao: "..."

Xie Guan slept until nine o'clock in the evening, and woke up from hunger.

He got up staggeringly, wavering between the two options of "find dinner first" and "find Huo Mingjun first", and finally made the earth-shattering and difficult choice: go to dinner first.

Huo Mingjun's family was too big, so he was too lazy to go to the study, so he put his mobile phone on his pocket very wisely, found the dinner left for him in the kitchen, and called Huo Mingjun while eating.

"Hey."

"Are you awake?" The connection was quickly made over there, and Huo Mingjun glanced at the time on the computer, "I asked the nanny to save dinner for you, get up and eat something."

"Are you eating?" Xie Guanting asked, his voice didn't sound like he was in the study, "Are you not at home?"

"At the company, I have to work overtime." He casually took advantage of Xie Guan, "Why, I was scared when I woke up and couldn't find it?"

Xie Guan: "Get out."

After a short pause, his sleepy brain began to function dryly: "Why do you have to work overtime again? Are you busy during this time?"

"It will be over soon," Huo Mingjun smiled a little, "Don't sleep at night, wait for me to go back."

The apartment is a home-style elevator. As soon as Huo Mingjun entered the house, he saw Xie Guan sitting on the sofa, staring at the screen, holding a pot of cherries in his hand, surrounded by two crabs, like a majestic uncrowned king crab .

In the late night when thousands of houses in this city are lit, there is a lamp left for him, and someone is waiting for him under the lamp.

The house has finally become a "home".

"I'm back," Xie Guan waved the pliers at him... No, hands, "Are you tired, do you want to eat cherries?"

Under the rigid and strict rules of the Huo family, there has never been a scene where he dared to open his mouth to eat after returning from the outside without changing his clothes or washing his hands.

Huo Mingjun walked over and took a big cherry from Xie Guan's fingertips: "Well, it's quite sweet."

His lips barely brushed over his fingertips, as quickly as a hallucination.Xie Guan wasn't sure if he had touched him, but the nerve endings of that finger were already stimulated by vision and brain stimulation, and they were so nervous that they were about to ignite spontaneously.

"Cough," he quickly ate a cherry to suppress his shock, and changed the subject without confidence, "What are you going to tell me?"

Huo Mingjun looked at his eyes lovingly as if watching a crab swimming in a pot of warm water: "You have been filming the scene for half a year, and now it is finally finished. I plan to take you out for a vacation. Is there any place you want to go?"

Xie Guan's frightened cherries all dropped: "What did you say?"

"I've worked hard a while ago, I'll take you to relax," Huo Mingjun said patiently, "Do you hear me clearly?"

"Let's relax... ah," Xie Guan hesitated, "Where should we go? Just...you and me?"

Huo Mingjun asked leisurely, "What else, who else do you want to bring?"

I want to bring bodyguards, Xie Guan thought tremblingly, because your motives seem not very pure...

Huo Mingjun seemed to be doing it on purpose, so he didn't continue to talk about this topic. He just asked for his opinion symbolically, and then he made a decision without saying a word, and drove him back to the bedroom to sleep.

A few days later, Xie Guan went to the company to meet Lin Yao, discussed work with her and reported the itinerary. After finishing the conversation in the evening, he came out of the company and was about to ask Huang Cheng to take him back. At this time, Huo Mingjun called and said he wanted to see a The factory building happened to pass by their company, so they stopped by to pick him up.

Xie Guan then sent Huang Cheng to leave first. Ten minutes later, the Rolls Royce he was familiar with showed up at the corner of the street.

Xie Guan opened the door and got into the car, greeted Zhong Heguang who was driving, sat next to Huo Mingjun, and glanced out the window: "You didn't bring bodyguards today?"

Huo Mingjun: "Weifu private visit."

Xie Guan looked at him with a look of "are you sick?": "Driving a Rolls Royce for a private visit? You rich people are too good at playing."

Huo Mingjun smiled, and whispered in his ear: "All follow behind, just for show."

"What kind of factory building is worthy of a big chairman like you coming to see it in person?" Xie Guan also lowered his voice, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart, "Do you want to make trouble? There will be no danger, right?"

"It's okay." Huo Mingjun patted the back of his hand, "I just went to the factory to take a look, and I won't bring you here if it's really dangerous."

The Rolls-Royce drove smoothly to the suburbs.

The destination is an independent three-story factory building in the eastern suburbs of City B. It used to be a wood processing factory, but it closed down due to poor management. The Hengrui Group took a fancy to this land and wanted to use it to build a private nursing home.

The manufacturer was already waiting at the door, Huo Mingjun and Zhong Heguang got out of the car, Xie Guan also wanted to follow, but Huo Mingjun pushed him back into the car: "It's hot outside, don't come out. Wait for me in the car, I'll be back in a while."

Xie Guan is not an employee of the company, so it's not good to mess around at such a time, even if he feels something is wrong, he can only follow Huo Mingjun's arrangement.

Huo Mingjun and his party stayed at the door for a while, and walked into the factory together.

Several black bodyguard cars approached from different directions, quietly surrounding the dilapidated factory building like an isolated island.More than a dozen bodyguards in black sneaked into the factory yard through the small door.

Ten minutes later, there was a strange humming sound in the distance.

Xie Guan raised his head abruptly.

He looked at the dusty three-story old building, and suddenly there was an ominous premonition in his heart before the rain was about to come.
