Half a catty

He Yue rubbed his sore eyes and stared at the computer screen all morning, his brows tightened, and when he turned to look elsewhere, there were still some double images in front of his eyes.Falling back into the chair, he pushed the mouse to the side, closed his eyes and took it easy.

The blackout curtains were drawn on the windows, and the cold air was continuously sent out from the air outlet of the air conditioner, and the moist things crept through every corner of the huge office silently, but even so, it still couldn't relieve He Yue's stuffy heat.

Maybe it's because the office is too big.

At least a few circles bigger than his star ring room.He Yue hesitated for a while, tilted his neck, and looked over the computer screen at the nanmu tea table in the middle of the office.

Beside the tea table, He Xincheng was pouring boiling water into the teapot, put the lid on and waited for a while, then poured all the freshly brewed first time tea on the teacup, and took a hot bath for the teacup.

"Tired?" He Xincheng concentrated on the tea set in his hand and didn't look at He Yue, but he seemed to know that He Yue was taking a break.

He Yue sat at He Xincheng's desk, looked at He Xincheng's computer, and helped He Xincheng process the documents for the whole morning.Not only today, he started to take over some work one after another a week ago, often running between Xinghuan and Hengtong, and he was very busy.

He Yue stood up, supported his stiff waist, moved his neck, and kept complaining: "Dad, to be honest, did you pull me back because you wanted to be lazy?"

He Xincheng looked indifferent, and said, "You know it's difficult, do you really think that being able to handle your small company means that you can manage Hengtong with ease?"

This was a big talk He Yue said earlier, and He Xincheng used it to mock him every now and then in the past two days.Today's He Yueshu is convinced: "I've overestimated my capabilities."

He Xincheng snorted and glanced at him: "Come here, have some tea."

He Yue walked to the tea table, and after sitting down, he unbuttoned the cuff of his shirt, folded it up a little at random, revealing his forearm with sharp lines, twisted the rim of the small teacup with his two fingers, and instantly felt the scorching heat from that point of contact The area spread to He Yue's skin, causing him to let go immediately.The teacup fell back onto the tea table, and a little of the tea spilled out of it. He Yue rubbed his fingers and muttered, "How can you drink it in this hot weather..."

"Learn to keep in good health, son, your dad and I work hard like this every day, and our bodies are not overdrawn. What do we rely on?" He Xincheng raised his glass calmly: "Health care."

He Yue looked at He Xincheng hesitantly, then picked up the teacup again, put it on his lips and took a sip. This mouthful let the hot air flow over his lips, and the hot air filled his mouth, which seemed to flow down the esophagus to his stomach, making him He Yue, who was not cool, became even more stuffy.

"I still can't understand it at the level of my thinking." He Yue decided not to be too forceful on himself.

He Xincheng laughed that he didn't know how to enjoy, and sighed that he was still young: "The process of making tea is also a kind of stress relief, which can make people calm, so you can slowly understand."

He Yue is noncommittal, but currently the most common method he uses to relieve stress is——

Seeing that He Yue took out a pack of cigarettes out of nowhere, He Xincheng said, "Don't smoke in my office."

He Yue shook the cigarette case at He Xincheng: "Then I'll go out and smoke."

Before He Yue left the office, he took his wallet and put it in his pocket.Every floor of Hengtong has a dedicated smoking room, and this floor is no exception, but He Yue doesn't look sideways when he passes by. He who has been "squeezed" all morning can't be satisfied by smoking a cigarette in the smoking room .

As soon as June arrives, the temperature in J City has been soaring all the way, and it has remained high at around [-] degrees in the middle of the month. Many people are worried that it will be so hot in June, and how it will be in July and August.

The area of ​​Hengtong is also full of office buildings and other office spaces, and many coffee shops have emerged accordingly, and there are three downstairs in Hengtong alone.The sun was scorching outside, and the business of this kind of iced drink shop was good. He Yueguang looked at the line that was about to reach the door and felt withdrawn. Finally, he found someone with few family members. He seemed to have caught a life-saving straw and walked quickly. Entering, the moment the door is pushed open, ample air-conditioning rushes in, as if reborn.

He Yue looked up at the front, estimating the time needed to line up, and didn't notice who was in line ahead of him, until the person in front turned his head inadvertently, He Yue was surprised to realize who the somewhat familiar figure was.

Men Changnan, whom I hadn't seen for a long time since the last dinner party, was still the same old, with no edges or corners, but it was not a good thing, and he even smiled a little honestly, as if he was not very clever.

"I ran into you here and came out to rest?" He Yue asked first.

Men Changnan replied: "No, I took my cat to the nearby pet shop to take a bath, and I was waiting and waiting, thinking of coming here to buy a drink."

He Yue took a look at Men Changnan's clothes, and found that they were indeed a bit casual.

"You still have a cat." He Yue greeted casually.

Men Changnan nodded, and said a little shyly, "Because I usually have nothing to do and always stay at home, so I raised a cat to accompany me."

At this time, He Yue had already sensed something was wrong. He thought that he had never seen Men Changnan in Hengtong these days because their jobs did not overlap, but now it seems that Men Changnan was at home waiting for work and never came to Hengtong. .It stands to reason that Men Changnan was favored by Men Qi, and he was trained as an heir, so it wouldn't mean that he didn't even arrange a position.

He Yue's doubts were buried in his heart, and he didn't show it on his face. He remembered Men Changnan's broken-down car, and he didn't know how to deal with it afterwards, so he asked, "What happened to your car?"

As soon as Men Changnan mentioned the car, he frowned, and said sullenly, "Forget it, the engine is scrapped and needs to be replaced. I think about it, let's forget it. The money for repairs can buy a new car."

"Well, there is no need to repair it."

"It's just a little inconvenient to drive without a car recently."

Who would have thought that Men Changnan, the son of Menqi, would have only one car to drive, not even a scooter, He Yue sighed.He thought about it carefully, the car that broke down on the road seemed to be a BMW [-] series, at least a model from ten years ago, even if Men Changnan was just an illegitimate child, the treatment was too shabby.

He Yue has seen Men Qi's meticulous attention to Men Changyang, now listening to Men Changnan talking about these things in a normal way, he can only sigh that the same people have different fates.

During these few conversations, it was their turn to be at the front, and He Yue said to Men Changnan very naturally, "Let me invite you."

It was just a drink, so Men Changnan didn't refuse: "Okay, thank you."

He Yue looked up at the menu and saw that it was mostly coffee. The bitter taste of the previous cup of tea came back from the back of his tongue. and dropped.

The waiter behind the cashier saw his difficult choice, so he pointed to a separate small poster on the counter: "Sir, our new sparkling water is delicious, it's only for summer. "

The drink in the poster is bright blue and looks novel, but the marked taste is grape flavor.

He Yue didn't care if it was grapes or anything else, as long as it was sweet: "Just this." After he finished speaking to the waiter, he asked Men Changnan, "What do you drink?"

"Just the same." Men Changnan said.

While waiting they continued to chat.He Yue asked: "Then how did you come here today, did you take a taxi?"

"Yes, pets are not allowed in the subway, even if they are put in an air box." Men Changnan was quite distressed: "And my cat is very manic when taking a bath, only this pet shop can stop it, otherwise I will I’m too lazy to bring it all the way here.”

He Yue listened to Men Changnan's experience in raising pets for a while, then looked at the time, and frowned suddenly.

"I've been out for too long, it's time to go back." He Yue said apologetically.

"Then I..." Men Changnan also looked at the time: "It will take a while for the pet store to finish, or... let me go and see my father, is he there?"

He Yue said: "It should be, I saw him before."

Then they left the coffee shop and left the shelter of the air-conditioning, just like throwing themselves into a blazing stove. Fortunately, they could still get a little coolness from the drinks in their hands, but when they returned to Hengtong, the glasses full of ice cubes were all gone. A quarter of it was roasted.

Men Changnan walked a few steps towards the gate, but found that He Yue hadn't followed, he turned his head, but saw He Yue standing still, turning his head to look at the sofa on the left side of the gate.Men Changnan looked suspiciously, and saw a person sitting on that group of sofas, his back was facing them, only the back of his head was exposed.

Although it was only the back of the head, for He Yue, he could recognize who that person was with just one glance.

"Wang Chengyi, what are you doing here?"
