10.

It's okay to wear a suit well, but Duan Li really doesn't know how to tie a tie.After all, at his age, he never wore clothes that required a tie.

Duan Li challenged several times in the fitting room, but Duan Li finally gave up.Looking in the mirror, he took care of his whole body again, and after confirming that there was no problem, he walked out of the fitting room with his tie in his hand.

Cheng Zhensheng was bored sitting alone in the lobby, so he simply walked to the door of the fitting room and waited.When he saw Duan Li coming out, Cheng Zhensheng couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and he looked up and down the man in front of him.

Duan Li was already handsome, with sharp edges and corners, and he was also very tall. In addition, he usually did some exercise, so there was no excess flesh on his body.With wide shoulders and narrow hips, wearing a tailored suit, the whole person exudes a model look.It's just that the slightly drooping corners of the eyes are always drooping weakly, adding a touch of laziness to that handsomeness.

Cheng Zhensheng's eyes hidden behind the glasses narrowed dangerously, looking at Duan Li with a deep eagerness.

Duan Li didn't notice Cheng Zhensheng's gaze, and asked the previous salesman to help him tie his tie, then walked up to Cheng Zhensheng and said, "It's ready, how about it."

Cheng Zhensheng subconsciously looked away, then back again, stretched out his hand to straighten his tie, and said, "It suits you very well."

The salesperson who had been standing by the side also came over and said sincerely: "Yes, yes! This dress is really suitable for you as a customer! If you were someone else, you would not be able to wear this kind of temperament, just like a model !"

Duan Li also felt that since he came out wearing this dress, the eyes of the other sales girls in the store have become eager to look at him, but he is not used to being flattered by others, let alone the other party is a man.He waved his hand and said, "Hehe, you are exaggerating."

"I'm telling the truth!" The salesman patted his chest and promised.

Duan Li smiled awkwardly.truth?No matter how honest he was, it was impossible for him to buy such expensive clothes!If the family members knew about it, they might be ridiculed!

Thinking of his unpretentious parents all his life, and his honest brother Duan, Duan Li felt that it was too painful to wear such clothes, and wanted to tell Cheng Zhensheng to change them.

But before he could speak, Cheng Zhensheng had already gone to the cash register to check out.Duan Li hurried over to hold the man's hand that was about to take out his wallet.

"what are you doing?"

"Check out." Cheng Zhensheng said this as a matter of course, without any fluctuation in tone.

"You want to buy this dress?"

"if not?"

"Who are you buying it for?" Duan Li still asked unwillingly.

Cheng Zhensheng turned his head and looked at him expressionlessly, "What do you think?"

Duan Li knew that he was serious, he couldn't help rubbing his forehead, his head started to hurt again.

He tried to put it another way: "The clothes are very 'expensive'." He intentionally emphasized the word "expensive", meaning that he couldn't afford it.

Cheng Zhensheng obviously understood what he meant, but he turned his head and took out his card to pay the bill, "I gave you this."

"Why?" Duan Li wanted to laugh.

Cheng Zhensheng turned to look at him again: "Because we are friends."

"friend"?As soon as these two words came out, Duan Li didn't know how to continue.He didn't know that there was such a precious gift between friends.

Seeing his entanglement, Cheng Zhensheng added softly: "Your birthday is coming soon."

So it's a birthday present?Duan Li was completely dumbfounded.

Given the family conditions of the Duan family, it would be good for Duan Li and Duan Xiaofeng to have enough to eat when they were young. Things like "birthday" were never the least important.Only occasionally when the conditions are better, mother Duan will cook two eggs for two people, which is considered the most extravagant birthday.

Although the conditions improved later, the habits I had developed since I was a child have not changed, and birthdays have always been dispensable.But after becoming friends with Cheng Zhensheng, his birthday was taken seriously by the other party, and he would always receive carefully prepared gifts and blessings from the other party on that day every year.

Recalling the past, Duan Li suddenly felt a warm place in his heart, like a lump of cotton stuffed, soft.

"Where did you get so much money?" I was moved in my heart, and my tone was not so tough.

Cheng Zhensheng seemed to understand his mood, he was also relieved, and said, "I'm investing in stocks."

"Oh!" Duan Li forgot that this person is studying economics.

Sure enough, there is still a gap!Duan Li studied information technology - software development and programming. To put it bluntly, he is "playing with computers".Although he thinks he has learned well, compared with people who study economics, he naturally doesn't have so many ways to make money.

Just as he was complaining about himself and counting the gaps between himself and Cheng Zhensheng, he had already paid and settled the bill.

Cheng Zhensheng didn't know what was going on in Duan Li's mind. After paying the money, he saw the man drooping his head and wondering what he was thinking again. He stretched out his hand to poke the man's spine, and the man jumped up.

Cheng Zhensheng saw his expression like a puppy that stepped on its tail, and couldn't help laughing: "What are you thinking? Go and change your clothes soon, is it possible to go back dressed like this?"

Of course it is impossible for Duan Li to go back wearing this outfit.He fixed his eyes on the gun in Cheng Zhensheng's hand, knowing that it was useless to say anything now, he shook his head and went back to the fitting room just now.

After dinner in the evening, the two of them walked home slowly.The two of them didn't speak much along the way.Duan Li is because the clothes belt in his hand makes him feel a little heavy. As for Cheng Zhensheng, Duan Li said that he has never been able to guess the other party's mind.

Walk to the door of Cheng Zhensheng's house.

"Go up and sit down."

Duan Li shook his head: "No. Today Zheng Jie is coming over, I have to go back and say hello."

"Really? That's fine." Cheng Zhensheng knew that it was his sister-in-law-to-be.

"Go in. Remember to eat on time every day." Supervising each other's meals seems to have become a habit of Duan Li.

"Duan Li." Cheng Zhensheng suddenly stopped him.

"what?"

Cheng Zhensheng sighed softly.Duan Li thought, why do you often see him sighing recently?

"Duan Li. Don't feel any burden." Duan Li knew he was talking about the clothes, "This is just my birthday present to you. We are friends. We are going to graduate soon, I think you need it, That's why I bought it for you, there is no other meaning."

Duan Li felt that this was probably the longest sentence he had ever said to Cheng Zhensheng since he met him, and he couldn't help being a little moved.It turned out that his little reaction could make people care so much.

"And the clothes are not expensive to me." Cheng Zhensheng said again.

Duan Li was unhappy.Why does this sound a bit like showing off your wealth?Of course, he knew that the other party didn't mean that.

Seeing that the man didn't speak for a long time, Cheng Zhensheng wondered if he still cared, and was about to say something to comfort him, but he saw the man took a deep breath and held it in his mouth, and then suddenly laughed.

"Zhensheng." The man called his name with a smile, his slightly drooping eyes curved into a beautiful crescent shape, "Thank you." The man said.
