Hiding from your predecessor

Han Yichuan rubbed the screen of the phone with his thumb, as if he could touch Dean's smiling face through the screen.

I obviously almost forgot about you, why did you appear in front of me again?

Is it really that hard to forget you?

Why did you still have such a big influence on me the moment I saw you?

Is it because I can't bear to delete these text messages and this photo with you, so I can't drive you away from my heart?

Then... delete you.

Han Yichuan moved his stiff fingers to delete those text messages one by one, as if he was completing a certain ritual. Every time he deleted one, he could erase a little of Dean's influence on him, until his trembling hand clicked on the last one Text messages—that picture of Dean with his new boyfriend.

The Dean in the photo is so brilliant that Han Yichuan's heart aches. His smile hidden in his heart is like a treasure, but it blooms to other people. It is no longer him who can make him smile amazingly...

It's time to wake up.

No matter how bright you smile, no matter how reluctant you are, this smile will no longer belong to you.

It's time to wake up.

Han Yichuan's fingers finally stopped trembling, selected and deleted.

A drop of salty tear dripped on the screen, distorting the light and the pattern on the screen, two drops, three drops, until the screen was completely blurred, Han Yichuan turned the phone over and wiped it on the quilt casually.

"Goodbye, Dean..."

Six years later, when Dean appeared in front of him again, he finally made up his mind to forget it completely.Dean's influence on him was so great that six years later, this fleeting glance could stir up all his thoughts and disturb all his brain nerves.

It can't be like this, it can't be muddled anymore, otherwise he may fall into this curse called Dean forever and cannot break free until it rots. He shouldn't have any illusions anymore, he wants to really make a clean break.

The tall man sneaked out of the room when Han Yichuan said "goodbye", that is, when Han Yichuan called out the word "Dean", he guessed some causes and consequences.

Dean was the first guest to appear at the 66 bar a month ago. He gained attention because of his high-quality appearance, but what made him famous was that every time he came to the bar, no one succeeded in asking him out.He will observe every guest in the bar, but refuses to respond to any of the guests' chats. It is more appropriate to say that he is here to find someone than to say that he is here to club.

And the person he was looking for, the tall man intuitively thought it was Han Yichuan.

Han Yichuan said that Dean was his enemy?But judging from Han Yichuan's performance just now, it is probably more appropriate to describe him as "a person who never forgets".

Before, he only thought that Han Yichuan would be a good friend with benefits, but at the moment when tears rolled down Han Yichuan's cheeks, he found that no matter whether it was Han Yichuan who was immersed in desire, or the sad and determined Han Yichuan, he would never forget him again. .

After tidying up, Han Yichuan walked out of the room, and was taken aback by the tall man blocking the door: "You didn't leave?"

"I agreed to make an appointment next time, but I didn't ask you for a contact information."

Han Yichuan covered his eyes in embarrassment, this man wouldn't realize that he cried just now, he was paralyzed, it was too embarrassing...

Reality is always skinny, the tall one said, "Have you ever cried?"

Han Yichuan: "..."

Without saying a word, he turned around and wanted to go around the man.

The man grabbed Han Yichuan: "We don't know each other anyway, maybe you need a stranger to listen."

Han Yichuan gave the man a middle finger: "I didn't cry, I just got water in my eyes!"

The man followed Han Yichuan into the elevator: "My name is Chu Xiangsheng, and my side job is a psychological consultant. Maybe I can help you."

Han Yichuan glanced at Chu Xiangsheng in doubt: "Then tell me how to forget someone quickly?"

"If you're referring to forgetting a relationship, the most effective way is to start another relationship, find someone who has absolutely no resemblance to that person, and who will help you dilute the part of the past that you want to leave behind."

Han Yichuan frowned, as if he was weighing the feasibility of Chu Xiangsheng's idea.

Following the reminder that the elevator reached the ground floor, Chu Xiangsheng stepped out of the elevator and asked: "Then let me ask this question differently. If one day your ex wants to get back together with you, what will you do?"

Han Yichuan blurted out: "What do you think of Chengdu? I heard that there are many gays there and the quality is super positive."

"So you chose to run away." Chu Xiangsheng concluded, "You can't forget him, but you don't want to get back together with him, why?"

Han Yichuan smiled lightly. Many times it is easier for people to tell the truth when facing a stranger, especially when he is empty and lonely: "I talked with him for two years, but after breaking up, I spent six years I haven’t forgotten him. I will look for his shadow in all kinds of people, and I can’t get it. I want to forget but I can’t forget it. I’ve had enough of this torture.”

"I should have lost the ability to like people. My feelings for him now are not necessarily liking. If there is no love between the two, how long can this relationship last? If they get back together, they will still break up. So this time, I How long will it take to forget him? Six years? Sixty years?"

"I'm terrified all the time that he's going to bring back a blond boy and tell me that's his new boyfriend and I've broken up with him a long time ago, and all the good things are my hallucinations , he has nothing but hatred for me, he has no other feelings, he wished he would never see me again."

Chu Xiangsheng interrupted: "You are too pessimistic."

"No, that's what I think. I don't believe he will get back together with me, because what awaits me in the next second must be a more cruel reality. And I promised him that I would never appear in front of him again. I have been lying to him before , we broke up because I lied to him all the time. I don't want to break my promise again, so I will keep this last promise. If he says he wants to get back with me, then I will definitely go to a place where he will never find him. "

Chu Xiangsheng: "And start a new relationship?"

Han Yichuan chuckled, hooked Chu Xiangsheng's chin to only three centimeters away from his lips: "You said so much, but you actually want to fuck me?"

"Yes, I can help you forget him. I know how to make you forget him more effectively."

Han Yichuan raised his brows, and breathed warmly on Chu Xiangsheng's lips. At the moment when Chu Xiangsheng felt that Han Yichuan would kiss him and his heart beat faster, Han Yichuan pushed Chu Xiangsheng away and walked in a cool way: "No need! , I don’t need anyone’s feelings. Instead of breaking up because I can’t give my feelings, it’s better to be a single forever.”

It took Chu Xiangsheng a long time to react, and he followed up: "Hey! At least leave me a mobile phone number!"

When both of them were far away, the streets with few pedestrians returned to silence. There were occasional sounds of speeding cars on the road, and the night wind blew the leaves of the sycamore trees on the side of the road, but there was no rustling sound of leaves shaking.The street lamp stood firm on the sidewalk, and the dim yellow light gave Ye Guiren a little warmth, but the warm tone could not really bring warmth to the man standing under the street lamp.

The man's blond hair was a bit conspicuous under the yellow streetlights, but the man's eyes could not hide regret and annoyance. The irregular heartbeat forced him to take deep breaths, but what he inhaled was only moist and cold air.

He is Dean who followed Han Yichuan and Chu Xiangsheng. He heard all the conversations between the two. It was only now that he discovered tragically that he actually wanted to thank himself for not showing up at Han Yichuan's fried chicken shop directly, or having a face-to-face fight with Han Yichuan. call.

Those conversations confirmed the worst guess in his heart. He couldn't appear in front of Han Yichuan, even if half of Han Yichuan's words were false, he didn't dare.

To make matters worse, this test of Han Yichuan's "sex dating" behavior also gave Han Yichuan an extra suitor.

It was a coincidence that Dean could hear their conversation. When he was told by the front desk lady of the love hotel that he "has never seen Han Yichuan", he heard the opening of the elevator door and the conversation of the passengers in the elevator.

What's more, the structure of the lobby of this love hotel prevented Han Yichuan and Chu Xiangsheng who came out of the elevator from noticing Dean who was standing at the reception desk.

So Dean hit the right angle and caught all the dialogue.

"If he says he wants to get back together with me, then I will definitely go to a place where he will never find him."

Dean gasped, held his breath, chewed the sentence over and over, clenched and loosened his palms, and finally exhaled deeply.

He didn't dare to make this bet with Han Yichuan at all.

So now there is only one way left for Dean, if the reality cannot meet, then he must be caught in the game.

This may be his only chance.

After arriving home, Han Yichuan only felt empty in his heart, and he didn't know what was missing. The phone was set to silent, and it was only now that he had time to look through the text messages and calls that he had ignored.

The number displayed on the screen as "Di Nan" gave him two calls and two text messages.

[Di Nan: Where are you? 】

[Di Nan: You are already half an hour late, are you in some trouble? 】

Han Yichuan turned off the phone with a cold face, threw the phone on the coffee table, and walked through the living room to the bedroom.

Maybe I'll get better after a good night's sleep. I have to get up early tomorrow to sell fried chicken.

Han Yichuan's fried chicken restaurant is located in the famous People's Square, adjacent to Shanghai's famous "Blind Date Corner" People's Park, and under the light of "I Eating Fried Chicken in People's Square", Han Yichuan's fried chicken restaurant has a business of less than ten square meters It's been good.

At the beginning, he had put in a lot of effort to obtain the right to use the land. Fortunately, Wanli Xiaoyao helped Han Yichuan through his father's relationship and rented it to him for three years at a relatively cheap rent. , A while ago, Wanli Xiaoyao was covering him and re-signed the five-year lease contract, which is why Han Yichuan kept saying that Wanli Xiaoyao was kind to him.

Wanli Xiaoyao will come to Han Yichuan's shop to take care of business when he is free. Of course, the drunkard's intention is not to drink. More often, he likes to play sparring games with Han Yichuan on the only small round table in the fried chicken shop.

Wanli Xiaoyao's name is Wan Ruifang, and he is the leader of Xiangyunfu's largest gang. He sounds awesome, but in fact he has a hobby that is rare among men-gossip.

His main purpose of buying fried chicken today is also to satisfy his desire for gossip.

Wan Ruifang: "You didn't play the game yesterday, do you know something big happened to King Chu last night?"

Chu Wang Ba is the nickname they gave to the gang "Scattering Money Boy" who has been hostile for three years and will fight endlessly when they meet each other.

Han Yichuan looked very irritable, with a listless face engraved on his face: "What can happen to Chu Wangba? Could it be that he finally admitted that he has a crush on me and proposed to me?"

"Yes."
