Xiao Chen got stuck at the meal time and returned home. When he opened the door, he could smell the strong aroma of braised beef.He took off his coat in the hallway, changed his shoes, and smelled a faint smell of tobacco when he walked into the living room.

Si Xiaoqi was busy in the kitchen. It was already November and it was getting cold. He was wearing a pair of baggy cotton trousers, a long-sleeved cotton T-shirt, and a green one-piece apron that he bought chicken essence from the supermarket. On the body.Xiao Chen watched behind him silently for a while, then walked over to put Si Xiaoqi on the back and said, "Honey, when is dinner?"

Si Xiaoqi usually has a bad mouth, always trying every means to take advantage of Xiao Chen, whenever he catches the opportunity, "wife" grows "wife" and "wife" short, although Xiao Chen always stares back at him.But occasionally when Xiao Chen doesn't bother with him, he can enjoy himself all day long, which seems to be a great advantage.Xiao Chen never argued with him about this, as if it was Si Xiaoqi's patent to be a verbal hooligan, Xiao Chen always asked indifferently on the bed: "Shall I come today?"

"Okay!" Si Xiaoqi nodded forever. Since Xiao Chen's "acupuncture hand" restrained him for the first time, he never dared to raise objections on this issue.In fact, he felt that Xiao Chen's "technical content" was quite high, at least he felt quite refreshed.

So, when Xiao Chen hugged Si Xiaoqi's waist and called him "wife", Si Xiaoqi froze, feeling that the word "wife" really made him feel uncomfortable, no, not just , It's simply a heart attack.Because he suddenly felt that he would not be able to play Xiao Chen even as a "verbal hooligan" in the future, and he was completely defeated.

"Ask you, daughter-in-law." Xiao Chen straightened up and rubbed against Si Xiaoqi's back.

Si Xiaoqi dropped the shovel with a bang, grabbed Xiao Chen from behind and kissed him hard: "Wash your hands, eat now."

Xiao Chen lowered his head and saw a light yellow hen printed on Si Xiaoqi's green apron, lying on Si Xiaoqi's belly fatly, with a peaceful expression.Xiao Chen couldn't help laughing, his eyebrows were curved, and there was a layer of water in his eyes.Si Xiaoqi kissed Xiao Chen's eyelids, patted his buttocks and said, "Hurry up, don't recruit me here."

"Oh?" Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows.

"I don't mind, but it's oil and vegetable soup here. I'm afraid you'll be a clean freak. How disappointing is it to be half wilted?" Si Xiaoqi gestured to hug Xiao Chen's waist, Xiao Chen looked dirty Looking at the messy kitchen counter, he said quickly, "I'm going to change clothes."

He turned and walked into the bedroom, and when he came out of the bathroom, three dishes and one soup were already on the table.

"Did the talk with Guo Hong go well?" Si Xiaoqi and Xiao Chen filled a bowl of rice, handed it over, and asked casually, "What countermeasures have been discussed?"

"Where is there any good countermeasure?" Xiao Chen said with a wry smile, "I am a dead horse as a living horse doctor."

"How do you plan to treat it?"

Xiao Chen hesitated for a while and said: "I haven't made up my mind yet, I just have an idea... But, I think it's quite difficult."

"tell me the story."

"Zhang Tianqi and I are old classmates after all, and we don't have any conflicts between the two of us, so I thought it was really impossible to find him and see if I could talk to him." Xiao Chen subconsciously didn't tell the truth, because In fact, he hasn't figured out what to do. He needs time to think through every consequence.

Si Xiaoqi sneered and said, "You're stupid, it's impossible to even think about it, if he jumps out to protect the person his father-in-law wants to get rid of, wouldn't that be madness?"

Xiao Chen shrugged and said, "This is just a way...so I say it's a dead horse as a living horse doctor."

Si Xiaoqi patted his chest, and said with a bit of pride: "Tell me what you need, we want money and money, and people."

Xiao Chen sneered, "I will still pay for the supermarket in the afternoon."

Si Xiaoqi chuckled: "Baby, it's so clear how many births you have."

After Si Xiaoqi finished speaking, he lowered his head happily and continued to eat, but Xiao Chen gradually couldn't eat anymore. He actually didn't need people, let alone money. The only thing he needed was to take a step back at any time to be safe. leaned into Si Xiaoqi's arms.

It's almost winter and it's starting to get cold, Xiao Chen suddenly felt that this would be a long winter.

◇◇◇

Xiao Chen is usually very gentle, and easy to talk to when getting along, only Zhao Kai said that he is "too cruel" and "too ruthless" in his actions.When he categorically rejected Shen Peng's suggestion of "seeking Zhao Kai's parents for a relationship", Shen Peng also said that he "wouldn't leave any retreat for himself", "Why bother".

But Xiao Chen never thought of it that way. For some things, since there is no "future" to speak of, why should he retreat?

For example, even if I want to stay in the emergency room in peace and order, some people may not be able to tolerate it. Besides, I am not willing or reconciled to staying in the emergency room in such a "safe manner" to fulfill their wish.

What's more... there is Zhang Tianqi!

Xiao Chen is very clear that his sexual orientation is a bargaining chip, and the reason why everything has been calm until now is because he has not posed any threat to them, and Zhang Tianqi just holds onto this handle until needed.Xiao Chen hated this feeling, and when he thought of a pair of gloomy eyes staring at him unrelentingly, he was upset.

He would rather face the most terrible consequences known than the most unexpected blows unknown.

So Xiao Chen felt that he could and should have a talk with Zhang Tianqi, or take a gamble.It's just that this gamble will not open until mid-November two weeks later.

According to the rules, the personnel arrangement for the next year will be formally discussed at the administrative expansion meeting in mid-November every year.In fact, rather than "discussion", it is better to say "well-known", because there are very few cases where the arrangement is changed.Both Guo Hong and Shen Peng used their personal relationships to help him clear up, and Xiao Chen wanted to find Zhang Tianqi to find out before that to see if there was any opportunity, but in fact he also knew that this kind of opportunity was simply illusory.Xiao Chen felt that he was facing unprecedented pressure, as if that illusory hope had materialized into a thousand-thousand stone mountain, firmly pressing on him.

But he gritted his teeth and carried it by himself, because Si Xiaoqi has been busier recently, and the work he received was too scattered, and sometimes there would be a shortage of manpower, so he would take a short trip by himself.He began to "not come home at night", and Xiao Chen also had night shifts to be on duty, and sometimes the two of them would not see each other for a day or two.The beautiful night of "you dissect it and I'll forget it" quickly became a good memory like a flash in the pan. Sometimes Xiao Chen even felt a little regretful when facing the empty room. Who is watching?

Xiao Chen remembered what Shen Peng said again, "You are so terrible, why are you so cruel to yourself", Xiao Chen couldn't say why, probably because he was used to "be strong".His mother has been strict with him since he was a child, even harsh, Xiao Chen seems to have gotten used to it, not relying on others, and not giving himself a way out - so he resolutely brought Si Xiaoqi to his mother.

In this matter, Xiao Chen didn't intend to leave a way out for himself, he hated the panic feeling of being caught, and he made up his mind to have a talk with Zhang Tianqi.

This afternoon, Xiao Chen casually took an X-ray from the table and went to the orthopedic clinic. Zhang Tianqi was seeing a patient, and when he looked up and saw Xiao Chen standing at the door, he couldn't help frowning.

Xiao Chen raised the film in his hand and signaled that he would come to him to watch the film. Zhang Tianqi finished writing the doctor's order, prescribed the medicine and sent the patient away and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Watch a film." Xiao Chen took out the film and stuck it on the light box, Zhang Tianqi looked at the film and said, "Is this still worth watching?"

Of course Xiao Chen knew that there was nothing to watch in this film, so he said bluntly: "Tianqi, I want to talk to you."

"Talking now?" Zhang Tianqi looked up at the clock hanging on the wall. It was five o'clock in the afternoon, which happened to be the off-duty time.He smiled and said, "It's too late."

Xiao Chen understood what he meant, and said lightly: "When we just graduated, we went to the Third Academy for an interview, and we were late when we got out, and there was a traffic jam on the road. You said 'Forget it, you must be late', and I said, 'Since you are out, Just go and have a look', when the two of us ran over, just after the last interview, the person in charge of the interview had time to chat with us for a long time, remember?"

Zhang Tianqi sneered and said, "Remember, they wanted to sign you at that time... Speaking of Xiao Chen, you are very popular no matter where you are."

"Didn't you sign it in the end?"

"You don't sign and others don't sign are two different concepts." Zhang Tianqi snorted and said, "It's right not to sign. You see, Guo Hong is protecting you now, and Old Wen is speaking for you."

"Zhang Tianqi," Xiao Chen asked impatiently, "What do you mean?"

"You don't know what I mean? But speaking of it, I think you're worth it. It's not in vain. You can see Guo Hong running up and down for your affairs is a joy!" Zhang Tianqi Emphasis is placed on the word "pay".

Xiao Chen looked at Zhang Tianqi steadily, his eyes gradually became fixed, he knew very well that this was the so-called "jedi", this time it was not that he had no way out, but that no one left him a way out.

Zhang Tianqi looked at Xiao Chen and said with a sneer, "Your little shit... Humph, do you really think no one knows?"

◇◇◇

It was almost 05:30 when he came out from Zhang Tianqi's place, Xiao Chen's cell phone rang, and he watched Si Xiaoqi's name flashing on the screen.This is like a spark, igniting all the emotions accumulated in his heart, Xiao Chen can almost determine the content of the call, because the calls at this hour every day have the same content.

"Hello?" Xiao Chen said a word with sparks in his tone.

"Honey, I'm still on the road. I can't go back until after nine o'clock. There's a traffic jam." Si Xiaoqi's voice came, the background sound was very noisy, and there was a commotion in the carriage. Xiao Chen heard a young boy's voice at the tip of his ear. Yelling: "Brother, look at them, is there any law of the king..."

Then Si Xiaoqi's voice sounded: "Don't torment him, it's almost over after a lot of trouble."

A car of people burst into laughter.

Holding the mobile phone, Xiao Chen stood at the gate of the hospital where people were coming and going, and suddenly remembered that Si Xiaoqi once patted his chest and said, "I'm here, don't worry."

So Xiao Chen roared: "Si Xiaoqi, where are you?"

"I haven't entered the city yet," Si Xiaoqi said hastily, "I'm driving, I hung up... By the way, you can make some dinner yourself, I don't have a plan."

Before Xiao Chen could say anything, the phone hung up.Xiao Chen looked at the beeping mobile phone, and suddenly clenched his fingers, the burning anger in his heart was almost uncontrollable.

Now, he wants to take a step back, but where is the person who should be standing behind him?

He returned home alone, walked around the room unconsciously, went to the kitchen to look through the cabinets, he remembered that Si Xiaoqi would put cigarettes in the cupboard.Sure enough, there was a pack of unsealed cigarette cases and a lighter there.Xiao Chen lit a cigarette, and opened all the windows of the kitchen in the choking smoke, allowing the cold November wind to blow in vigorously, and the room became icy, and this chill would calm him down.

He doesn't feel hungry, and he also knows that the refrigerator is still empty. The things he bought from the supermarket before have been eaten long ago. Si Xiaoqi is not often at home, and he doesn't bother to go to the supermarket to buy by himself, so the refrigerator is always so empty. .Xiao Chen recalled that a few days ago, Si Xiaoqi said optimistically that the company still had money to pay employees' salaries, so naturally he and Qiao Xin didn't have any income.But Si Xiaoqi is in a good mood. He doesn't mind whether he can get his salary. The most important thing is to be able to send out the employee's money. The new company has just opened, and the first month should be salary plus red envelopes, but the red envelopes are no longer available. It's possible, if the salary can't be paid out, it is estimated that the store can be closed next month.

Si Xiaoqi also said that at that time Qiao Xin took 2 yuan from the hot pot restaurant and planned to give Si Xiaoqi and Cheng Zihua a few points, saying that the hot pot restaurant originally had their shares.Si Xiaoqi issued an IOU, but Feifei threw it into the boiler after changing hands.

Xiao Chen still remembered that Si Xiaoqi hugged himself, and said apologetically, "Baby, I'm so sorry, your chicken farm director will have to be another two months." His fiery breath sprayed on his neck.

A gust of cold wind blew by, Xiao Chen suddenly felt that it was really cold in the kitchen, he put out the cigarette, unwilling to stay in the kitchen for a second, turned and went to the living room.

Xiao Chen pressed the switch of the TV but couldn't find the remote control. Usually only Si Xiaoqi would watch TV for a while when he was at home. Recently, the TV hadn't been turned on for a long time, and Xiao Chen didn't know where the remote control was.Annoyed, he turned off the TV again, walked around the living room like a trapped animal, and entered the bedroom with a full of hostility.

He turned on the computer and clicked on a surgical video, but his mind was so chaotic that he couldn't calm down.Zhang Tianqi's words are very clear, he is absolutely impossible to say a word for himself, in fact, if he doesn't fall into trouble, it will be regarded as the best of benevolence.Therefore, Xiao Chen can only gamble with him on who has the stronger psychological endurance.

While the clock was ticking, Xiao Chen vaguely heard the sound of the door lock opening, and then there was a sound of kicking footsteps, the bedroom door was pushed open, and Si Xiaoqi's voice sounded: "Fuck, baby cat, Can you watch something to help you sleep?"

Xiao Chen snapped the notebook shut, raised his head with anger in his eyes.Si Xiaoqi leaned over with a smile on his face, gnawed on his own mouth, and then said with a flattering expression: "Baby, I was wrong, I shouldn't be back so late... But I don't have to go to the company tomorrow morning, I will Sleep with you for half a day, then make you lunch, go down and take you to the hospital, okay?"

Xiao Chen didn't know what to say for a while, and couldn't find an outlet to vent his emotions, all of which were blocked by Si Xiaoqi's smiling face.

"Are you going to see an operation tomorrow?" Si Xiaoqi pulled out his pajamas from the cabinet and changed into them.

"Have you eaten yet?" Xiao Chen rubbed his face, trying to put his restlessness aside.

"Eat." Si Xiaoqi sat down on the edge of the bed and kissed Xiao Chen, "What did you eat?"

Xiao Chen didn't answer Si Xiaoqi's question, he smelled alcohol from his mouth.

"Have you been drinking?" Xiao Chen's heart was blocked, and an inexplicable grievance surfaced.

"Well, after sending those children back, those students from the student union insisted on inviting them to dinner. I think it's too late at this point, so I just ate... What did you have for dinner?"

"Ramen." Xiao Chen said casually, and then asked, "Do you drink and drive?"

"No, I'll park the car first and then go to eat."

Xiao Chen lowered his head silently, and lifted the laptop screen again, Si Xiaoqi immediately jumped up from the bed: "Look for yourself, I'm going to take a shower."

Si Xiao ran away like flying, and when he came back after a while, his hair was wet. He threw himself on the big soft bed, turned over with his arms around the pillow, and put it on the pillow. Xiao Chen sighed and said, "It's still comfortable at home, really stop."

Xiao Chen looked down at Si Xiaoqi's tired face, his heart softened suddenly, and he pressed his fingers on his brow.

"Baby, you don't know how noisy those students are. The Normal University has a lot of girls. The chatter all the way made my head hurt."

Xiao Chen said: "I heard that, and I still call you 'Brother'."

"Are you jealous?" Si Xiaoqi asked cheaply, and at the same time closed his eyes and took a comfortable breath.

Xiao Chen really wanted to sneer with disdain like before, but he was in a bad mood today, he couldn't lift his spirits as if he had fallen from a lead weight, he tried his best to squeeze out a not-so-good-looking smile and said: "How is it possible? ?”

Si Xiaoqi also laughed, without even opening his eyes, he said, "Young junior, that's the French translator I told you about last time. He's too fucking troublesome."

Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Did you learn French in the third year of the Normal University?"

"Ah."

Xiao Chen slowly widened his eyes. There must be a lot of junior boys in the French Department of Normal University, but there must not be many who are also gay, and there are even fewer who fit Si Xiaoqi's description.

Damn, how small is the world!
