bad daddy

"Today is my birthday." Xiang Jie dipped his hands in some beer froth, and drew an unknown pattern on the dining table.He knew that he didn't need to say it.

But when He Yaning was sitting next to him and asked him with a smile if anything good happened today, Xiang Jie couldn't help but trembled in his heart.

"Oh?" He Yaning paused, then smiled, "Then I wish you a happy birthday."

"I'm 24 years old," Xiang Jie pulled the corners of his mouth reluctantly, "I'm already 24 years old."

He Yaning leaned back slightly.Xiang Jie leaned over, holding a beer can in his hand.

"You drink less." He Yaning couldn't help reminding him.

"Don't worry, I won't get drunk." Xiang Jie put down the wine in his hand, "Brother, do you want to talk to me about something?"

He Yaning bit a small piece of soft meat on the inner wall of his mouth, "Well, have you thought about it these two days?"

Xiang Jie looked at He Yaning.He is very sober, and alcohol has not yet occupied the high ground of his IQ.But there is a floating feeling of intoxication.

Under this feeling of intoxication, Xiang Jie felt that He Yaning was so beautiful.

His veil-like outline, his delicate bones and skin, his cold eyes, his thin lips, with a smile, said "Happy Birthday".

Xiang Jie finally knew where his motivation and anxiety came from.

All because of He Yaning.

This man who made him unconsciously get close to him.

When this idea popped up in his mind, Xiang Jie knew that he was doomed.

Like a few raindrops before the summer rainstorm.After a brief silence, a violent storm struck.

He closed his eyes, made a decision almost instantly, let himself go, let himself die.

"I won't go," Xiang Jie looked at He Yaning, "I don't want to go."

Not "It doesn't bother me," not "I love this job," but, "I don't want to leave."

He Yaning didn't seem surprised.He nodded, "Then do the job well."

Xiang Jie did not breathe a sigh of relief.

"Then I..." He Yaning opened his mouth, but was quickly stopped by Xiang Jie.

"I will use restraining stickers," Xiang Jie said eagerly, "You...you don't have to worry."

He Yaning's eyes wandered for a moment, "You think too much."

"I can't think too much," Xiang Jie said eagerly, "Maybe...it has nothing to do with me, but I also want to make sure that I won't bring you trouble. Because I care, I worry, I..."

I like.

Xiang Jie's face flushed red.Seeing He Yaning's surprised expression, he suddenly got stuck.

He closed his eyes and opened them again.

The hour hand pointed to seven o'clock in the evening.

There was leftovers from dinner on the table.

He Yaning sat across from him.

Xiang Jie clenched his fists, his knuckles turned white.The window was not closed tightly, and a gust of cold wind blew in.

"I like you." Xiang Jie said with difficulty, the hot words slipped down his lips, "I..."

"...you're drunk." He Yaning stood up, reached out and pressed Xiang Jie's shoulder, as if to press his emotions, his words, and the atmosphere in the room back into Xiang Jie's body.

It almost shattered him.

"I didn't..." Xiang Jie struggled a bit, but He Yaning had great strength.

It was just like that dream, making him unable to move.

"You're drunk, drink less in the future." He Yaning's fingers slid across Xiang Jie's neck, touching a small piece of skin behind his ear, and Xiang Jie shivered violently.

"Go wash the dishes." He ordered.

"Boss?" Jiang Chen knocked softly on the door. He Yaning was resting with his eyes closed and opened his eyes.

"That little boy is here again." She stuck out her tongue at He Yaning, "Do you want to let him in?"

Really.He Yaning sighed silently, "Just find any reason and let him go back."

Jiang Chen was in trouble, "Last time I said you were in court, last time I said you had an appointment to eat outside, and last time...boss, I really have no excuses left!"

"Think again." He Yaning also had a headache, "I'll leave it to you."

"Hey!" Jiang Chen knew that his boss was going to be the shopkeeper, stomped his feet, and had no choice but to return to the hall.

Xiang Jie rested his chin on both hands, waiting for his assistant to deliver the message for him.As soon as Jiang Chen's figure appeared, he immediately stood up.

When he saw him, Assistant Jiang's head shook like a rattle.

"Is he still busy?" Xiang Jie asked cautiously.

Jiang Chen sighed. Although she was not a kind person, she hated the little handsome guy bumping into a wall the most.Xiang Jie ran every day, and was cruelly rejected by his boss. It was really sad for those who heard it.

"Let me tell you the truth." She couldn't help reminding, "What about our boss, he just doesn't want to see you. Did you offend him? Our boss is very nice, usually he doesn't get angry?"

Xiang Jie could only smile wryly.

It's not as simple as provoking He Yaning.

That night, He Yaning patted him on the shoulder and went back to the room.Leaving Xiang Jie alone in the living room, he was blown by the cold wind bit by bit.

Xiang Jie was not drunk, but he was indeed in a daze for a while.

When the wind blew, he shivered, and then his mind came alive.

Xiang Jie, what are you doing?

Are you confessing your love to your employer?

What do you mean?

Afraid of being fired, just sell yourself?

Or do you covet your employer's beauty, with malicious intentions?

Xiang Jie slapped himself on the forehead, no wonder, no wonder Jiang Fang used to call him stupid.He was still unconvinced before, how can he be stupid now?It's just that IQ has been fed to the dogs, and the brain is as potholed as an atomic bomb test site.

He Yaning went to the law firm early the next morning.

Xiaozhu's grandma came once or twice to help He Yaning water the flowers and check Xiaozhu's homework.He Yaning sent a message saying that there is no need to leave him food for a few days.This is all right, completely gone.

Xiang Jie still held the lunch box in his hand and bit his lip.

What is the meaning of such indifference and alienation?It would be better to just resign him.

Xiang Jie sometimes thinks, he might as well tell He Yaning that the Lord quit and love whoever he wants.But he remembered that he said that he was not willing to leave with a red mouth and white teeth, and he refused to leave. In the end, it was himself who couldn't get rid of the face.

"Then I'll go first, thank you." Xiang Jie forced a smile at Assistant Jiang, and walked away lonely.

He Yaning ate the salad delivered by the light food restaurant downstairs. The cherry tomatoes were mutated like lemons, so sour that he frowned.

He scribbled a few vegetable leaves with a fork, stuffed them into his mouth and chewed them with crunch.Dull.

How could anyone like to eat this stuff?He suddenly missed Xiang Jie's cooking.He Yaning coughed lightly and poured himself a glass of water.

Xiang Jie was not drunk that night.

He Yaning has been at the wine table for so many years, so of course he can easily tell the difference between drunk and sober.Xiang Jie raised his face and said "like" to him, He Yaning could see the sincerity in his eyes.

Although he may not have thought it through, he may not have thought it through.

He Yaning frowned and finished the rest of the salad, put away the box, stood up and stretched a long way.He stood by the window and looked down. Perhaps not long ago, Xiang Jie had just passed that road.

He Yaning concentrated.

Xiang Jie's fiery gaze was so hot that he didn't dare to touch it easily.

Because it was too warm and enthusiastic, He Yaning was afraid that he would burn himself, and finally there would be no bones left.

He is 33 years old, he has responsibilities on his shoulders and a path under his feet.The days go by like this, there are no surprises, but there will be no surprises either.

He Yaning felt that if he earned a little more money, raised his daughter, provided for his mother, and fulfilled his responsibilities as a father and son, this life would be fulfilling enough.

As for Xiang Jie, although he said that he was 24 years old, in He Yaning's view, he was still in his prime, so bright that he could squeeze out water.

Although there will be confusion, there are also many opportunities.He Yaning has read his resume, there are flaws, but also bright light.

The reputation of the school, the superior appearance, and the high dual quotient.As long as Xiang Jie is willing, as long as he is willing to suffer a little, he will have everything he should have.The rest is just a matter of time.

What's more, he is still an alpha.

Xiang Jie has a long way to go.And he, He Yaning, was just a small station that stopped temporarily.Perhaps the temporary unhappiness will make Xiang Jie especially attached to the comfort and gentleness here, but the Qionglou Yuyu in the distance is the place he should really yearn for.

He Yaning shook his head lightly, such a young man, why waste time getting involved with him?

Perhaps, now is the time to end.

Thinking about it, he took out his phone and wanted to tell Xiang Jie that he didn't have to come back tomorrow.An unread message caught his attention.

He didn't save the number.

But he remembers.

This number has long been etched into his mind.

"I'm back in Haishi," said the message, with politeness and restraint, "Let's meet this weekend, shall we?"
