the sky is sugar

The sudden ringing of the mobile phone is particularly abrupt in this quiet night and in an empty house with no lights on.

Jiang Shan sat up from the bed and touched the moisture beside his ears and the corners of his eyes in a daze, then rubbed his dry eyes, got off the bed and walked towards the living room.

The phone was still ringing, he pulled out the charger, picked it up and took a look, squinting his eyes to confirm that it was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello?" Jiang Lin went to the dining table and poured a glass of water to take a sip.

"It's me." He Yancheng's dull voice came from over there, "Don't hang up."

Tsk, amazing, he was indeed going to hang up the phone, and wondered how He Yancheng knew his phone number.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Lin said.

"I miss you very much." He Yancheng said.

I miss you……

I miss you……

What a beautiful four words, and they are also four words that he has thought about and chanted countless times for countless days and nights in the past ten years.

Now hearing He Yancheng say it, I really can't express what it feels like.

He was silent for a while, and finally hung up the phone without saying anything.

Lying on the sofa and staring at the number in the call log, I suddenly felt sleepy and wanted to sleep.

Just thinking about it, I fell asleep.

As a result, he was woken up by the damn phone ringing again in the middle of the night. He frowned and squinted his eyes to endure the discomfort from the glare of the screen, and glanced at the phone: 01:46.

Fuck!

Then he glanced at the number of the caller and hung up without thinking.

Within 30 seconds, the call came again.

hang again.

20 seconds, still playing.

continue to hang.

Until the fifth phone rang, Jiang Shan couldn't bear to answer it and scolded: "You fucking never stop!"

There was a moment of silence over there, and then a strange voice sounded, asking cautiously: "Excuse me... are you a friend of this drunk drunk gentleman?"

"No!" He hung up the phone angrily.

But he was still so sleepy by this sudden interruption, he had no choice but to get up and turn on the TV, leaning on the sofa and watching the TV, his mind was full of the phone call and the strange voice on the phone.

He Yancheng is drunk, will something happen if he is outside alone in the middle of the night...

The more he thought about it, the more annoying he got, but in the end he got dressed and went out.

"Hello?" Jiang Shan hesitated for a long time and dialed the number. He went out from the gate of the community and stood on the side of the road waving for a taxi. "Where is he now?"

"Hello, this gentleman is at the Daylight Bar now," said the phone caller.

"Understood, look after people." Jiang Shan stopped a taxi, reported the destination, leaned on the back seat and rubbed his temples.

Until the taxi stopped at the entrance of the bar, he couldn't explain why he came. He had clearly said that he would not meet again in the future, so why did he forget what he said when he heard that he was drunk.

It's just getting drunk, it's not a big deal, and will Young Master He lack someone to protect him?

Think about it and feel funny.

But the funniest thing was that Jiang Shan just put one foot out of the car door and stepped on the ground after paying the money. Before he got out of the car, he saw Tan Qian coming out of the bar door with a bodyguard supporting the drunk He Yancheng.

This scene seemed so dazzling to him, but he had to admit that they were indeed a good match.

Jiang Shanding felt like a joke there.

He even forgot that He Yancheng has a wife now, no matter how late, there will be a gentle and considerate wife to pick him up and take care of him, and he will never get himself, an irrelevant person.

"Handsome guy, are you leaving or getting off?" the taxi driver had been waiting for him for a long time, and he couldn't help urging him when he saw that he didn't get in or get out of the car.

"Let's go," Jiang Shan withdrew his foot and closed the car door, and smiled self-deprecatingly, "Go back to the place where I got into the car just now."

The driver glanced at him and then turned his head, probably wondering why this man was running back and forth.

When He Yancheng woke up in the morning, he felt that his head was about to explode. He sat up with his arms propped up and leaned against the head of the bed, patting his head with the palm of his hand. He didn't quite remember what happened last night, and he didn't know how he got home.

He picked up his mobile phone and looked at the call records, and found that there were more than 30 calls that hung up within a few seconds of dialing, without even ringing the ringtone in time.

Only the last few sessions took longer, so they should have been picked up.

He knew that the calls were all to one person, and they were all calls to Jiang Shan.

Could it be that he sent her back yesterday?

He Yancheng was a little happy in his heart. He put on his pajamas and got out of bed, went to the bathroom to wash up briefly, then went out from the bedroom and stood on the second floor, looking around for the expected figure.

"Husband?" Tan Qian came out of the kitchen with a bowl of porridge, looked at He Yancheng whose expression changed from anticipation to indifference, "You're awake..."

"Who told you to come here!" He Yancheng walked downstairs, while staring at the embarrassed Tan Qian, his tone was not very good, "Did I ever say that you are not allowed to come to this place!"

There are memories of him and his mother when he was a child, memories of him and Jiang Shan when he was a teenager, even He Dong is now arranged by him in another residence, why would Tan Qian dare to come here.

"Also, I seem to have reminded you." He Yancheng casually leaned on the sofa, looked up at Tan Qian, her eyes seemed to be cold, and she couldn't help shivering, "The word husband is not you. Deserving of the call, does it mean that if I treat you a little better, you will forget what role you are playing?"

Now he finds that he hates this woman more and more. He obviously came here because of her obedience and wit, but recently she has been testing and challenging him again and again.

This made He Yancheng very upset, especially after seeing Jiang Shan again, he really wanted to divorce Tan Qian immediately and cut off all entanglements.

But if He Dong hadn't forced him to hand over the group company to him only after he had a child, he would have confessed everything to Jiang Shan long ago.

Now that He Dong hasn't given him the biggest share in his hand, he can only continue to pretend and endure, because he really can't let what happened ten years ago happen again.

He still hasn't forgotten how miserable Jiang Shan was beaten at that time, so before he completely got rid of He Dong's control, he really couldn't take the risk.

He Yancheng was really surprised and distressed when he heard him yelling that he had waited for ten years.

He didn't need to think about how tormented the ten-year wait was, because he knew it too well.

For countless days and nights, he also tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, looking at the familiar number that he couldn't dial with tears in his eyes.

He didn't know how he survived at that time. Under He Dong's almost 24-hour surveillance, the only places he could touch were the school and home, and then the company and home.

He wanted to escape countless times but dared not, afraid of being caught, afraid that his impulsiveness would hurt Jiang Shan who was in the country.

He didn't even have a chance to explain.

So I had to abandon the boy who let go of his defenses and believed in him, the boy who promised him to stick together and never give up, the boy he especially liked.

Lost by him for ten years.

"Don't come here again." He Yancheng closed his eyes, his voice sounded a little tired, "Tan Qian, I hope you remember that the cooperation will end one day, so don't waste your time on me, I'm not interested in women You know, don't challenge me again, what I want is the clever and witty Tan Qian from before, understand?"

"I will remember, Mr. He." Tan Qian took a deep breath and tried to smile at He Yancheng.

"That's the best." He Yancheng put one hand on his eyes, and waved the other.

Tan Qian left, and the bowl of porridge on the table remained untouched until it slowly lost its heat.

He Yancheng went upstairs to change his clothes, and the driver was already waiting at the door. When he put on his coat, he glanced at the red RMB folded heart in his wallet, a firm light flashed in his eyes, and then he got in the car and went to the company.

Jiang Shan slept until the afternoon, and when he went to the store, he found that there were quite a lot of people, and suddenly remembered that today is membership day.

Xiao Li is very busy all by himself, ordering things, collecting money and making things.

He felt that it was time to recruit another person. Now that the business was stable, there was indeed a shortage of manpower, and what happened in the past few days made him really upset, so he wanted to go out for a walk and calm down.

On the same day, he printed a job advertisement and posted it at the door, and several people called him early the next morning, saying they wanted an interview.

Most of the people who came were girls, only one was a boy.

Those girls basically came here for him or for Xiao Li. Considering that those people might not come for work but for a relationship, he finally decided to take a look at that boy.

"What did you do before?" Jiang Shan sat opposite the boy and took a sip of coffee, "Did you plan for the long term or the short term?"

The boy looks about the same age as Xiao Li, but I have to say that he looks outstanding. To put it simply, he is fair-skinned, beautiful and long-legged. The confident and proud temperament matches his appearance quite well. I guess he came to experience it. That faction of the little boy of life.

"I don't know the long term or the short term. I just want to find something to do to prove that I can work while going to school." The boy's honesty made Jiang Shan dumbfounded.

Is there any place that recruits this kind of college students who don't even know how long they have been working for, and most of them are college students who have no experience in a short period of time. It's strange for him to say so directly.

But it was very strange, he somehow felt that this handsome guy was very interesting, and felt that he should get along well with Xiao Li.

"What's your name?" Jiang Shan asked.

"My name is Cao Fang, and I'm in my third year of college. I haven't worked part-time before, so I really don't have any experience." Cao Fang scratched his head and glanced at Jiang Shan.

"Okay, Cao Fang, you can try it starting tomorrow." Jiang Shan stood up and pointed to Xiao Li at the cash register, "His name is Li Ning, you can ask him if you want to know anything you don't understand. He will be the store manager in the future, and now you can go and say hello to him."

Cao Fang was a little confused. He didn't expect to succeed in the interview so easily. Before he went to several interviews, he thought it was short-term, still in school at a young age, or had no work experience.

In fact, he didn’t have much hope when he came here for an interview, because he doesn’t know how to make coffee, and he thinks it’s interesting to learn and make money at the same time, and the environment here is good in all aspects, so he came to try and ask first, but Unexpectedly, Jiang Shan would accept him so casually.

"Hello, my name is Cao Fang, your new colleague." Cao Fang walked to the cash register, stretched out one and waited for Xiao Li.

"Oh hello, my name is Li Ning, your future colleague." Li Ning put down the cup of caramel macchiato she just made in her hand, shook his hand and let go.

Cao Fang glanced at his slender hands with well-defined joints, and couldn't help but smile slightly.
