Upper Class

Lin Sitao compared the [-]% new black coat with the half-worn blue coat for a while, and he still wore the half-worn one.As long as it is clean and tidy - he doesn't want to appear to attach great importance to He Xian's invitation, and doesn't want to seem to have great expectations.

Besides, he hasn't promised He Xian whether he will go or not.

He Xian arranged the time for Friday night, and Lin Sitao went to work as usual.He received the courier on Wednesday, on Wednesday he thought about Thursday, on Thursday he thought about Friday, and on Friday morning he thought about noon.

By noon, he still couldn't make up his mind to refuse.

After lunch, He Xian's email came: "At seven o'clock in the afternoon, I will pick you up from the Design Institute."

Lin Sitao was busy until after get off work, and he didn't turn off the computer until a quarter of an hour before seven o'clock.Organize the desk and lock the drawers.He unhurriedly greeted his colleagues who were still working overtime, left the office, and went downstairs.

It was exactly seven o'clock when I walked out of the design institute.

He Xian's car was parked across the road. He sat in the driver's seat, opened the window and waved to Lin Sitao.

As Lin Sitao walked towards him, he thought about giving their personal relationship a decent ending today.

He didn't want to have a further relationship with He Xian, but He Xian was not someone he could afford to offend.If He Xian is offended, He Xian can tell him to get out of his current unit as far as he can with just one word.Lin Sitao felt that he had made great progress—he had already broken through the "He Xian" barrier, and began to think about very realistic problems.

The time they arrived at the restaurant was at meal time, and the restaurant was already full.But as soon as He Xian came, the manager of the restaurant came over to serve them personally, leading them to the reserved good location - a box with a view; and ordering food for them.Today is steak.The manager asked if he wanted to fetch the wine.

"The bottle of wine you sealed with us before has not been finished."

He Xian paused for a second, then said, "You guys share that bottle in the kitchen. Open a new bottle today."

Lin Sitao lowered his eyes, as if he had nothing to do with himself.

While waiting for the meal, a well-dressed woman came over to say hello to He Xian. She was as beautiful as a character on the cover of a fashion magazine. During the greeting, she couldn't help but glance at Lin Sitao. Cutting-edge, future pillars.Those who listened accepted it all, and said with a smile: "Next time my house needs to be renovated, I will definitely come to you for help."

Lin Sitao really wanted to explain that he was not an interior decorator, but He Xian had already agreed for him: "Okay, you must find him." The fairy walked away satisfied.

After 5 minutes, someone came over to say hello to He Xian.When the people left, Lin Sitao asked him: "Do the people who eat in this restaurant know each other?" The Beijing city he knew could not be so small.

He Xian answered him: "Some of them are just heard of names." Lin Sitao suddenly said out of nowhere: "It's really hard to be a celebrity."

He Xian laughed.

Lin Sitao didn't quite understand the point of his laughter, he probably was a bumpkin making people laugh or something.He didn't care anymore, anyway, He Xian had no image in his heart, and he didn't have to bother to maintain his image in He Xian's heart anymore.Let the soil be the soil.He was originally from a small city, and he almost petrified when he first saw the crowds in the Beijing subway.

He Xian thinks that Lin Sitao is innocent and cute, and looks very easy to be deceived.

He really regrets what he did that day.

"I'm sorry," He Xian said softly, "I did something ridiculous to you that day."

The food was served, and the wine was sober.The atmosphere is just right, the food is the company, and the time to speak is just right.

Lin Sitao could only say "hmm", and He Xian continued: "I think you should have bumps. Maybe you won't believe me if I tell you—it was the first time I did this kind of thing that day, and I probably hit a ghost."

Lin Sitao said, "Don't blame the ghosts."

"Really." He Xian said.

"Why? Don't say it's a ghost, that's unscientific." Lin Sitao felt a little dangerous.He seemed to be flirting with He Xian unknowingly.this is not right.

He Xian thought for a while and said, "It's a long story, are you willing to listen?"

Lin Sitao said, "Yes."

He Xian thought for a while, and said: "Someone who is very important to me has left me. I have been thinking about why in the past few months. He and I are both very serious people. We started seriously. , getting along very seriously. In the end, it was the most difficult ending for me to accept. I think it was probably too serious, so I want to change the way, or change the attitude.”

He looked at Lin Sitao, who listened very carefully.He said: "I'm sorry. I just wanted to do something stupid that day, but unfortunately you ran into me. Thinking about it now, if I did it, I should regret it."

He stopped, and Lin Sitao asked appropriately, "Why?"

He Xian said: "I figured it out. It's not a serious fault. My personality is not like that. Over time, I can't change it."

He and Lin Sitao stared at each other.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the outer wall of the box again.He Xian put down the knife and fork - in his heart he really wanted to throw the knife directly, and let no one apologize.

Someone leaned halfway in and said, "Old He, long time no see."

He Xian raised his head and had nothing to say - the visitor was still a beauty, wearing a new sweater from some famous brand, very coquettish.

Lin Sitao looked at He Xian, then at the visitor, with an innocent face, watching the changes.

Holding a glass of red wine, Song You sat down next to Lin Sitao, and introduced himself, "My surname is Song, and He and I have been old friends for many years."

Lin Sitao said: "I know you, you are the anchor Song of the financial news program, right?"

Song You smiled generously: "It's me, I didn't expect to be recognized after I got off the TV."

Lin Sitao said, "It's the same as on TV."

He had seen Song You on TV nine years ago, and it could be said that he had known Song You for nine years.But He Xian didn't recognize him, and Song You naturally wouldn't recognize him.

Lin Sitao thought, what's the situation now?

Lin Sitao thought to himself: "I know He Xian, and I know Song You; He Xian knows me, and I know Song You, but I don't know that I know Song You; Song You only knows He Xian, not me, and I don't know that I know him." , and know that he and He Xian used to be in a relationship."

Huh.Lin Sitao suddenly found himself at the top of the information chain at this moment.

Song You seemed to be hindered by Lin Sitao's presence, so he could only chat with He Xian for a while, and then said: "We haven't seen each other for a long time. You didn't come to the last class reunion. I'm very disappointed-the two of us were counting on our relationship back then." Best. Let's go out to play again when we have time."

He Xian said: "Let's talk about it next time." Song You gave Lin Sitao a half-smile and left.

Lin Sitao asked: "Are you and Song You classmates?"

He Xian said, "I can't talk about it."

After a moment of silence, he said, "Actually, he is my ex-boyfriend."

Lin Sitao didn't expect him to confess.He is not someone like He Xian, there is no need for He Xian to confess his secrets to him.

"Is he the one who is very important to you?" Since He Xian said it, he had to express some interest.Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing for He Xian.

He Xian was a little embarrassed: "No."

He tried hard to recall: "I broke up with him for many years, nine years, almost ten years."

"Time flies so fast." He sighed with emotion.

Embarrassment lingers.He Xian swore in his heart that he would never come to this restaurant again, and he never wanted to see Song You, an idiot again—it was a plus to miss his ex-boyfriend deeply.But just after missing the ex-boyfriend, another ex-boyfriend jumped out, it was a disaster, a complete disaster.

What to say at this time, "I actually only have two ex-boyfriends." It is powerless enough.

Let's change.He Xian thought.

Really should be replaced.

Lin Sitao lowered his head.

He needs to rationalize his thinking.He Xian's words are still logical, and there are no contradictions.Song You broke up with him nine years ago, and then it was normal for him to have a boyfriend again. After all, it is normal for a person like him to change three or four boyfriends in nine years.

But he understood that He Xian changed boyfriends one after another, whether he was serious or not, it had nothing to do with him at all.Because it's not his turn to be serious.

That's it, it doesn't matter.

Lin Sitao looked at the dishes again, and that was the case.The steak and red wine in high-end restaurants are not as delicious as the small restaurants in the university town that I remember.

At the end of the meal, both of them were bored.

After eating, He Xian was paying the bill, and Lin Sitao quickly walked out of the restaurant with his coat in hand.He Xian ran all the way to catch up with him.

"Xiaolin!" He grabbed him.

Lin Sitao looked at him, He Xian let go of him, and only said, "Come with me."

They took the elevator all the way to the top floor of the building.There is an observation deck on the top floor.

When Lin Sitao went up, he found that it was empty, only him and He Xian. Lin Sitao had actually seen what He Xian wanted him to see——

This is the best height and the best angle to appreciate the opposite building.

That was Lin Sitao's first job after graduation.Although he was completely a layman at that time, he still remembers clearly the day the building was completed.

He Xian said in a low voice: "You are a smart, motivated, and healthy person. I shouldn't have treated you like that. I'm sorry."

Lin Sitao looked at him.

"...and still so cute. You are the cutest person I've ever seen."

He Xian approached Lin Sitao slightly, reached out and stroked his hair: "...I'm sorry."
