Turn off the lights and let the pros come

As soon as Qi Yang left, Lin Li's smile disappeared instantly, and his expression became stern. He originally didn't want to share the private affairs of the two of them on the table, but today, he was forced by Qi Yang. To be honest, Ai Li has always given him the greatest feeling of uncertainty, even if that person is always by his side and can be seen when he looks up, he still feels that he can disappear in the next second.

Probably because he disappeared once.

Lin Yue unbuttoned the collar of his shirt, loosened his tie, took several deep breaths, and managed to suppress the anger in his heart.

When he got home, Avery was frying the seasoning. Even though the kitchen door was closed, some smell had drifted into the living room. The noise from the kitchen was very loud, and Avery didn't seem to hear him come back.

Lin Li went straight to change his clothes, went to the balcony and lit a cigarette, and the only anger left in his heart dissipated.

In fact, what is he thinking about?Avery is willing to stay by his side, is willing to cook for him and do housework, and is willing to accompany him to work, even if he has nothing else to do, no time for himself, and no complaints, such a person, if he stays by his side, how much does he still have? What is not satisfied?

Avery came out of the kitchen while cooking, saw Lin Li's shoes that had been replaced by the door, let out a "huh", ran to the balcony, and saw him smoking a cigarette.

Ai Li frowned invisibly, and Lin Li extinguished the cigarette without a trace.

"What's wrong?" Lin Li asked.

Avery was very happy to see him take the initiative to put out the cigarette, "I don't even know when you will come back."

"Just now, not long ago." Lin Li replied casually.

"Hmm." Avery seemed a little embarrassed standing where he was, "I can eat in a while."

"Hmm." Lin Li felt that his appearance was a bit strange, could it be that Qi Yang or his family members were looking for him?Immediately, he rejected this idea. If someone really came to him, the assistant would definitely tell him first, "What's wrong?" Lin Li asked again.

Avery raised his head, his face was still slightly red, Lin Li was more sure that the previous guess was impossible, otherwise, Avery would not be in this state.

"In a moment, after dinner, I have something to tell you." Avery said.

"Okay." Lin Li looked at him and said, "It just so happens that I also have something to tell you."

Avery's eyes lit up, he answered, and walked away with a smile.

The two of them had their own thoughts about this hot pot meal, and they didn't pay attention to the food at all. After eating in silence, Avery put all the mess into the kitchen, and Lin Li sat on the balcony and waited for him. Soon, Avery took the food. Two glasses of water sat across from him.

"Speak first." Lin Li spoke first, "Is there anything you want to tell me?"

Avery was a little embarrassed, cleared his throat, and clenched the water glass in his hand.

"I just found out today...I...I..." Avery was uncharacteristically faltering.

"How are you?"

"...I..." Avery's clear eyes kept locking on the person in front of him, "...I like you."

Lin Li was stunned for a moment, as if he had received a huge shock in his heart, he didn't recover for a long time.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Avery wasn't unhappy, as if he was satisfied as long as he told him about it, he looked at him with a smile.

"Ahem..." Lin Li coughed lightly twice, "Why, are you talking about this all of a sudden?"

Avery didn't take it seriously, "I just want to tell you, I want to be the first to tell you."

Lin Yue's heart softened because of his words.

I like you and want to be the first to tell you.

This is Avery, it's very simple, why do you have to think about everyone and everything so complicated?

Lin Li hooked the corners of his lips, "I also have something to tell you."

"Huh?" Avery made a simple sound, looking at him inexplicably.

Lin Li looked at the other person's expression, suddenly didn't know what he was going to say next, and thought about it for a while, "Tell me about your family, I haven't had a chance to talk about it before."

Avery was obviously stunned for a moment, "Why...you suddenly thought of saying this?"

"There is no reason." Lin Li said, "I just suddenly wanted to know."

In fact, Lin Li's idea is very simple. If he wants to keep this person by his side, he must know everything about him as much as possible. But now seeing Avery's reaction like this, he guessed, is there something wrong with Avery's family? The unspoken secret made him so embarrassed.

Avery pursed his lips, "Our family, only me and my grandpa, are far...far away."

Lin Li has been in the circle for a long time, and he will see some people more or less. Either Avery doesn't want to say something, or he can't tell him things, so now he starts to make up nonsense.

"Really? How far away? What's the name of the specific place?" Lin Li said.

Avery smiled helplessly, "Small place, you might not know if you tell me."

Lin Li didn't let him go, and took out his mobile phone as a gesture, "It's okay, if you don't know, I can check it online."

Avery's face was pale, and he sat there blankly.

"Can't you tell me?" Lin Li put away his phone and asked with a sigh.

Avery looked at him carefully, but did not answer, but asked instead, "Are you going to be angry?"

Lin Li didn't want to be angry. He knew what kind of person Ai Li was during the time he was with him. Being by his side seemed to be pure emotional maintenance without any other complicated reasons. What's more, this person just said that he liked him. He, let him still be in the stage of elation, so he shook his head.

"I will only be angry if you lie to me." Lin Li said, "Avery, everyone has secrets, you can choose to tell me or not to tell me, you can tell me what you can say and what you don't want to say, I won't get into it, it's important It's your actions."

After hearing what he said, Avery didn't really listen to it later, but he was relieved to hear that he wouldn't be angry, and his expression was much more relaxed.

"You don't want to talk about your family affairs, I won't ask again." Lin Li said, "But I need every word you say to me to be sincere."

Eli looked at him.

"I hate people lying to me." Lin Li said.

Avery thought for a while, then nodded solemnly, "I won't lie to you."

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the company held a party. Lin Li pushed it and told Ai Li that he had other arrangements and asked him to cook more delicious dishes, especially sweet ones.

"Who are you calling over to the house?" Allie asked.

Lin Li bent his eyes, and when he thought of that naughty boy, he had a headache and heartwarming, "My daughter is coming, as I told you, she is a girl I sponsored in the orphanage, named Xin Ran, a bit naughty, but It's also very cute..." Lin Li was worried that Avery didn't like children, but when he realized that he hadn't finished speaking, Avery showed a very happy look.

"...Do you like children?" Lin Li was a little strange.

"I don't like it." Ellie said with a smile as if remembering something, "But I will definitely like your daughter."

Lin Li nodded without thinking too much, "I will pick her up at the orphanage at noon, and she will spend the Lantern Festival with us."

"Okay." Avery turned and left, thinking about the ingredients he was going to buy and the snacks the children liked, full of interest.

Lin Li reckons that Avery and Xinran are both children at heart, and they should get along well. If they had known, they should have met earlier.

But in the end, we still couldn’t spend the Lantern Festival together. It happened by coincidence. Xin Ran said that he had a stomachache that morning, but everyone didn’t take it seriously. The child was sent to the hospital, and he called Lin Li directly after delivery.

On the way to the orphanage, Lin Yue heard the news and went directly to the hospital, and learned that Xinran had acute appendicitis. When Xinran was undergoing surgery, Lin Yue called Ai Li who was at home and briefly explained the situation.

Avery has been comforting him, telling him not to worry, and not to worry about himself, just concentrate on taking care of Xinran.

Therefore, Lin Li put all his thoughts on Xinran, and Xinran lived in the general ward after the operation. Lin Li found someone to transfer her to VIP. Soon, Xinran woke up and saw him yelling softly. Hearing "Dad", Lin Li felt sad for a while, but he finally felt relieved. In fact, appendicitis is a very small operation.

For him, Xinran was a small sustenance in his previous life. When he knew that he would never have his own children in this life, he decided to sponsor another life. His parents and sisters did not know the existence of Xinran at first. Later, after learning about his sexual orientation, I found out about such a child by following the clues, but because he was a child, no one could say much. Fortunately, everyone still put the pressure on him.

In fact, he can find a woman to have a child, but he can't do it, whether it's cheating a woman's feelings, or taking a woman's belly to give birth to a child, he can't do it.

Life is meaningful only when it comes into this world because of love.

So he chose to sponsor a strange child, and finally chose Xinran because her smile was always pure.

Thinking about it now, Xinran and Avery have similarities, so it can probably be classified as, what Lin Li likes is this kind of people who have no heart for the world.

"You scared Dad." Lin Li reached out and squeezed Xinran's face, and smiled weakly, "I still plan to eat delicious food, you said there is."

"Yeah." Lin Li nodded, "Dad originally wanted to take you to meet a little brother. He made you a lot of delicious food, but it doesn't matter. Dad will take you to see him after you recover."

Xin Ran pouted, "Little brother? Is it the same as me?"

Lin Li shook his head, "He is Dad's friend, and you are Dad's daughter."

Xin Ran smiled and opened her eyes wide, "Are you a boyfriend?"

Lin Li frowned slightly, "Who told you?"

Xin Ran blinked her eyes, "Little Fatty said, I can find him as my boyfriend when I grow up, Dad, you are already an adult, you can find a boyfriend now."

Lin Li was speechless and smiled, "Yes, Dad can find a boyfriend now, but you can't let Xiaopang be your boyfriend, he is too fat."
