night fades

When it was his birthday, Lin Ye got up early to cook and sent to the hospital. He stayed in the hospital until noon. In the afternoon, he invited someone out to play basketball.

When he entered the community, he saw a very cool Harley motorcycle downstairs, and he sighed in his heart. This motorcycle was so real that he couldn't even afford a model after saving for a long time when he was a child.

When he struggled to carry two boxes of beer upstairs and took out the key to open the door, he keenly sensed that something was wrong. The door was locked once before he went out, but now it opened as soon as he touched it. Could it be that someone came in? Pass?

Lin Ye was a little nervous, but he wasn't afraid. Even if he was a thief, he was an old man who had been training for a long time. If he dared to steal from him, he would definitely beat him up before the police came, otherwise it would be nothing.

Lin Ye picked up a bottle of beer, weighed it in his hand, and carefully pushed the door open, trying his best not to make any noise so as not to disturb the other party. In addition, he also calculated that if the other party was two people, he couldn't eat this deficit.

The door was opened a crack, and he looked inside. There was no one in the living room, and there were no signs of broken windows. He relaxed a little, pushed the door wider, and slipped in sideways.

He closed the door slightly behind him, making sure that there was no one in the living room, so he planned to go to the bedroom to check. At this moment, there was a "clang" sound from the kitchen, and Lin Ye shuddered, holding a beer bottle and yelling at the kitchen :"who!"

The kitchen was quiet for a while, as if he didn't expect anyone to come back, Lin Ye's heart was in his throat, and he didn't know what was going on inside.Lin Ye cautiously walked towards the kitchen step by step. For three long seconds, he heard his own heartbeat, bang, bang, bang.

Three seconds later, Zhou Ning'an poked out a slightly apologetic smiling face from the kitchen, holding a noodle bowl in his hand, with flour splashing all over his body, "Sorry, I accidentally dropped this on the floor, I'll clean it up Come on, don't worry about it."

The beer bottle in Lin Ye's hand was lifted up. Seeing that it was him, he received it behind his back in time. He almost lost his waist, and his heart dropped from the place where it was hanging high, and he didn't respond for a while. When I came over, I was very surprised, "Why are you here?"

The smile on Zhou Ning'an's face was awkward, he lowered his head, and said with some embarrassment: "You didn't ask me to get the key, so I... I originally wanted to get everything done before you came back, but this cake is bigger than I thought. There are a lot of troubles, and you came back just after I dealt with the last failed one, which shocked me."

Lin Ye poked his head into the kitchen, and sure enough, it was horrible.He laughed angrily, "Aren't you going to tell me, or did I scare you?"

Zhou Ning'an didn't know how to deal with it. He wanted to spend another birthday with him. He couldn't explain why he dared to come. He just felt that he had to come, even if Lin Ye really told him to go. I also want to see Lin Ye again.

Anyway, it wasn't the first time he was driven away by Lin Ye. What's so scary about him?

"I'm sorry, I... I just want to at least have another birthday with you." Zhou Ning'an muttered something, Lin Ye didn't hear it very clearly, but he didn't ask again, watching Zhou Ning'an put the flour basin aside , hurriedly tidying up the mess in the kitchen, one could tell at a glance that it was someone who had never worked.

Lin Ye leaned against the door frame and watched Zhou Ningan tidy up. The room was very quiet for a while, and the two of them were silent, each having their own thoughts.While Zhou Ning'an cleaned up as soon as possible, he wondered if he would drive him away this time. Lin Ye looked at him thoughtfully, but the only thought in his mind was that he hadn't seen him for half a month. People seem to be much thinner than before.

I lost weight so fast, did I not eat well, did I not sleep well, or did I neither eat well nor sleep well?Lin Ye didn't know how he could take care of himself like this when he was such a big and important person. Did the people around him take their salary for nothing?He lost weight so quickly, he spent the past six months raising pigs for nothing, isn't raising pigs more effective than this?

Lin Ye thought about it, but didn't say anything.He thought that he might never see Zhou Ning'an again. He thought that when he saw Zhou Ning'an again, he would feel a little angry, alienated or indifferent, but none of these emotions appeared. He was just a little puzzled and a little bit distressed at the moment.This kind of heartache is based on his thought that there is no one around Zhou Ning'an who can take care of him better than himself, but after thinking about it, he feels that this is just nonsense. Maybe he is too busy recently, or maybe it is the recent fashion among rich people. Kind of... All in all, what is this person?

He stood and watched for a while, and when he turned around, he found a cake box on the table in the living room. Lin Ye couldn't help asking, "Aren't you going to make a cake? Why did you buy another one?"

Zhou Ning'an was busy dealing with flour that was much more difficult to deal with than his commercial counterparts. When he heard him ask, he quickly explained: "That is just a spare. If I really can't make it, I can use that instead." Zhou Ning'an smiled and scratched I brushed my hair and got flour on my ears, "However, it seems that I can only eat that tonight."

Lin Ye let out an "oh", seeing him busy for a long time, with a pile of food bags piled up by his feet, probably planning to make it tonight, he was a little embarrassed, although it wasn't his fault, he still didn't know why He opened his mouth, "Well, actually, I invited friends out for a drink tonight..."

Zhou Ning'an's back stiffened for a moment, he lowered his head and put some strength on his hands, then put half a bowl of flour on his body, and said forcefully, "Yeah, I should have thought about it, it's my birthday, I definitely want to call friends It’s just that I came at the wrong time. It’s okay, you go, I’ll clean up your place and leave.”

Lin Ye tilted his head and listened to him stuttering, and couldn't help but think, "No, I didn't tell you my birthday is today, how did you know?"

Zhou Ning'an was taken aback, he didn't expect him to ask such a question, and said with a helpless wry smile: "Actually, today is also my birthday." Of course he will remember the day when we first met 20 years ago.

Lin Ye was too young at the time, so naturally he didn't remember, so he looked at Zhou Ning'an stupidly, and after a long time he let out an "ah", and then stammered, "I'm sorry, I didn't prepare anything."

Zhou Ning'an gave a wry smile, stood up and washed his hands, started to tidy up the kitchen, and said as he tidied up, "It's okay, I didn't mention it, you don't need to prepare anything, you're such an adult, it's no fun to celebrate your birthday, it's just a year older .”

Zhou Ning settled down for a while, made up his mind, took Lin Ye's hand, and put a lollipop in his palm, which tasted like lychee, "You gave me the best birthday present a long time ago."

That's it, even if he was driven away again, he still hoped that Lin Ye would remember him, and he hoped that when Lin Ye recalled him in the future, at least he wouldn't feel that this person was just playing around.

After speaking, he dusted the flour off his body, and prepared to leave in a bit of a mess.
