don't take my blame

This time the meeting was not at Ji Wen's home, but at a car dealership.

The small workers in the car dealership stared at Li Xingyu and the director of the law firm with some dissatisfaction, but Ji Wen's attitude was not bad, and he didn't deliberately make things difficult again. In the end, everyone negotiated a compensation of 8 yuan in exchange for a letter of understanding.

Li Xingyu sat beside him without saying a word.

Finally, the talk was settled, and the director got up to leave with Li Xingyu.

Ji Wen sent them out. When they passed by the door, a small worker didn't notice that someone was passing by. He lowered his head and opened the car door, almost bumping into Li Xingyu's body.

Ji Wen reached out his hand in time and pushed the car door so as not to bump into Li Xingyu. He said to the little worker, "Be careful."

However, only Li Xingyu noticed that he was blocking the car door with his right hand.

At that time, Ji Wen frowned, but said nothing.

Li Xingyu and the director came out, and the two got into the car. Ji Wen stood by the car door and said to him, "Be careful on the road."

Li Xingyu nodded.

He drove the car and had his head removed, and when he came back and passed the garage across the road, he saw Ji Wen standing at the door of the garage, with Chen Yang beside him, and the two of them seemed to be looking at the injury on Ji Wen's arm.

Although they were separated a little, the dark red on the white gauze was still very conspicuous.

Li Xingyu didn't know why he saw this scene, and felt a little irritable. He stepped on the brakes and said to the director, "Director, please drive back first, I have something to do."

After speaking, he parked the car on the side of the road and got out of the car.

The wound on Ji Wen's arm was bleeding a bit, but he didn't feel serious. Chen Yang came over to ask him how he was, and he said it was fine and it didn't affect him.

Anyway, it was time to go to the hospital to change the dressing today, so he planned to check it out later.

As a result, at this time, Li Xingyu came back.

Li Xingyu hurried over from the intersection while the light was green. He gasped a little, and stood in front of Ji Wen and asked him, "You don't have your hands? I see it's bleeding."

Ji Wen was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but smile, and said to Li Xingyu, "I'm fine, don't worry."

Li Xingyu's breathing hadn't calmed down yet, he regretted his rushing over, and was thinking about turning around and leaving.

But Chen Yang raised his hand and gave him the car keys, "Lawyer Li, could you please do me a favor and send Ji Wen to the hospital?"

Li Xingyu subconsciously raised his hand to catch the key, but asked, "Can't he go by himself?"

Chen Yang said, "How does he drive with this hand?"

Seeing Li Xingyu's reluctance, Ji Wen said, "Forget it, I'll take a taxi by myself."

Li Xingyu finally said, "Come on, I'll take you there."

On the way to the hospital, Li Xingyu kept silent. Ji Wen tilted his head back and closed his eyes, and suddenly hummed softly.

Li Xingyu didn't understand what song he was humming.

After Ji Wen went to the hospital to change his medicine that day, he asked Li Xingyu to send him back to the car repair shop.

Li Xingyu stopped the car on the side of the road, Ji Wen suddenly put his left hand on the back of his hand, and he immediately retracted his hand.

Ji Wen sighed and said, "Xing Yu, can I continue to treat you well?"

Li Xingyu didn't expect him to say that, and replied, "Can I say that I don't need it?"

Ji Wen lowered his head and smiled wryly.

Then Li Xingyu got out of the car.

On Saturday of that week, Li Xingyu celebrated his 28th birthday.

Early in the morning, he received a call from Yan Suling wishing him a happy birthday. The mother and son hung up the phone after chatting for a few words. After that, no one remembered that today was Li Xingyu's birthday.

In the past, Yi Wenchao would send him text messages or call him to ask him out for dinner, but after having a child, Yi Wenchao gradually couldn't remember Li Xingyu's birthday.

Li Xingyu spent this day last year alone.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with being alone. You can freely control your time and live the life you like, but you will always feel lonely at certain special times, such as when you are sick, and when others are happy together.

So you just need to hurry up today.

At noon, when Li Xingyu went out to eat, he stopped by a nearby cake shop. He didn't plan to buy a birthday cake, but just wanted to buy a few small cakes and put them in the refrigerator so that he could eat them when he was hungry.

Holding the paper bag from the cake shop, Li Xingyu went back to the elevator apartment where he lived. Just as he got out of the elevator, he saw Ji Wen standing at the door of his house smoking a cigarette.

Seeing him, Ji Wen quickly put out his cigarette and asked, "Are you back?"

Li Xingyu stood still at the elevator door, looking at him strangely, "Why are you here?"

Ji Wen said, "I remember today is your birthday."

Li Xingyu hugged the paper bag and asked him after a while of silence: "How did you find my house?"

Ji Wen smiled, "I asked your colleague, and he said that you told him that we are good friends."

The colleague he was talking about was the director of Li Xingyu Law Firm.

Li Xingyu was in a complicated mood, "What if I'm not at home?"

Ji Wen spread his hands, indicating that he didn't think too much about it.

Now that everyone was here, Li Xingyu didn't know what to say, so he opened the door and invited Ji Wen in.

He knew that maybe he should be more determined, not to let Ji Wen feel that he wanted to break the relationship, but he just couldn't let it go.

Ji Wen followed Li Xingyu into the room, but stopped suddenly. He said to Li Xingyu, "Xingyu, wait for me, I'll be back soon."

After speaking, Ji Wen turned around and left in a hurry.

When he came, he didn't think too much, he just thought that today was Li Xingyu's birthday, so he came to see him.He knew that Li Xingyu had a somewhat lonely personality. If no one took the initiative to accompany him in this kind of life, he would probably have to live alone.So when he rang the doorbell and no one answered the door, he was still a little depressed, wondering who Li Xingyu had gone out with.

Seeing Li Xingyu come back with the paper bag from the cake shop, Ji Wen suddenly realized that he was empty-handed. Since he was here to celebrate Li Xingyu's birthday, there should be some birthday presents.

So Ji Wen went out to a cake shop. It was too late to order a cake, so he could only buy a finished product from one shop. After coming out, he hesitated and went to a nearby supermarket, wanting to buy some vegetables for Li Xingyu's dinner.

Ji Wen's right hand injury has not fully recovered, so when he came back, he could only carry most things with his left hand.

Li Xingyu was also surprised to see that he had bought so many things, and invited him to come in and sit down.

Ji Wen said, "I'll make dinner."

Up until now, Li Xingyu didn't say no again, he just said, "Thank you."

In the early afternoon, Ji Wen went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

He does not dare to use his right hand, and it is very inconvenient to do most things with his left hand, especially when cutting vegetables.

So Li Xingyu helped him by washing and cutting the vegetables.

Because Li Xingyu didn't talk much, Ji Wen was the one talking most of the time, and he just listened.

But Li Xingyu felt that he should thank Ji Wen, at least this birthday would not be so difficult.

Lifting the lid of the pot, the boiling soup filled his face with steam. Li Xingyu put the fish in, turned off the heat and continued to cover the pot to cook.

Ji Wen was cooking, and it was inconvenient to use the spatula with his left hand, so he had to put down the spatula halfway to taste the taste.

Li Xingyu took the initiative to pick it up for him with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

Ji Wen smiled and said, "It's ok, you can try it later."

The few dishes he made were all Li Xingyu's favorite dishes. After they were served, Li Xingyu sat down and opened a bottle of beer.

But Ji Wen had an injury on his hand, so he didn't dare to drink too much.

Li Xingyu was obviously in a good mood today. He and Ji Wen were talking while eating. After drinking a few more glasses, he propped his face with one hand and looked at Ji Wen with bright eyes.

Ji Wen turned his head by chance, and found that Li Xingyu now looked very much like Li Xingyu when they were together seven years ago. At that time, Li Xingyu always looked at him like this, with a focused expression and a moving light in his eyes.

His Li Xingyu.At that time, Ji Wen often had such a thought, as if Li Xingyu belonged to him alone, and he was the only one he saw in his eyes at all times.

At that moment, Ji Wen also felt that his eyes were a little blurred by the alcohol. He looked at Li Xingyu, slowly moved over, and pressed his lips against Li Xingyu's.

Li Xingyu reacted instantly and stepped back.

The atmosphere was awkward for a while.

Ji Wen came here to celebrate Li Xingyu's birthday, and he even cooked such a big table for him. In any case, Li Xingyu shouldn't be angry with him now, but not being angry doesn't mean he just accepts it.

He lowered his head, and when he was thinking about what to say, Ji Wen spoke first, "It's getting late, I cleaned up for you, it's almost time for you to rest."

Li Xingyu looked up at him with a slightly astonished expression.

Ji Wen also didn't want to embarrass Li Xingyu, he was not completely free from temptations towards Li Xingyu, at least he needed to know if Li Xingyu still had feelings for him.

But he didn't want to make Li Xingyu feel uncomfortable, just like his initial plan, the purpose of coming here today was to celebrate Li Xingyu's birthday.

Hearing what Ji Wen said, Li Xingyu said quickly: "No need, I'll clean it up myself, you still have injuries on your hands."

Ji Wen subconsciously touched the wound on his arm, and said, "In this case, I'll leave first, and you should rest earlier."

Li Xingyu sent Ji Wen out, and Ji Wen stood at the door and said to him, "Xingyu, happy birthday."

Li Xingyu nodded, "Thank you."

When Ji Wen left, Li Xingyu leaned against the back of the door and covered his face with his hands. His cheeks were still hot. I don't know if it was because of the alcohol or something else, but at that moment just now, he did clearly realize that I realized that I didn't want to reject Ji Wen so much.

Maybe this day is too special.
