Good Night, Liang Xiao

Ye Ji'an was always in a mess when he was preparing to go out. Although he was not very comfortable usually, he was always miserable before a business trip.In order to improve the efficiency of the use of time and funds, the team has to make a general arrangement for the work after going out, and also prepare and report the planning documents and agreements to be used on time. Competitors have to keep an eye on them. Ye Ji'an also had to be busy finishing his work, in case something went wrong during the critical period before the Spring Festival, he would not be here.

This also led to working overtime in the middle of the night from irregular specials to every day, which also caused Ye Ji'an to feel that he was living like dog.

Sometimes Liang Xiao would stand beside him and use his cigarette tail to light the fire.Chatting is of course fun, and even if it’s just talking about the smog outside the window or watching a live football game when you don’t have time, it feels like you’re still alive.However, being so busy, neither of them really had time to think about where to spend their lunch. It was usually a box lunch sandwich, 15 minutes, a quick battle, and then sat back in front of the computer resignedly.

When Ye Ji'an looked at Liang Xiao, he often felt that this person was full of energy. He missed the last subway for many nights just like himself, and simply didn't go home. He just lay on the table and squinted until dawn. He didn't know how this person kept his energy.But one day he looked at himself again, except for the dark circles under his eyes that couldn't be concealed, he was also refreshed and looked like a dog. If the big boss called for a conversation now, he wouldn't be in a panic.

Well, Ye Ji'an now understands that modern people have common skills, and they are beautiful on the outside and broken on the inside.

But that nice young man who despises suicide probably doesn't have the same fantasy as himself.What a dog, the funds have not been screened, the year-end bonus has not been received, and I can't die, he thought again.

Less than two weeks later, all the documents were approved and the investor meeting was enough. This crazy day of drinking too much coffee every day finally came to an end. Ye Jian boarded the flight to Moscow, and the seats around him were empty and quiet. He felt that he had to An An slept soundly all the way.

According to the company's regulations, Xiao Li from the General Affairs Department booked him a first-class cabin, and the other five people were all in the business seats at the back, and boarded the plane not in the same aisle.All three are female colleagues, and the only two males are the deputy director of legal affairs, Chen, and Liang Xiao.That old Chen has a lot of experience, but he is still a patient with three highs, and he can't usually hurt his muscles and bones, so only Liang Xiao can do physical work. Fortunately, Ye Ji'an squeezed over to help when packing the luggage, so as not to save this seriously short-sighted man. I feel that the delicate young master is surrounded by four or five boxes, and one by one is stuffed up, looking so miserable.

Xiao Li from the General Affairs Department turned pale with shock: "Director Ye, please go back and sit down, it's about to take off!"

Ye Ji'an smiled, "It's early, Moscow is more than ten degrees below zero, have you brought enough clothes?"

"Bring it! I have a suitcase full of a down jacket. It's super thick." The young translator who just graduated raised his hand, very excited.Apparently, Ye Ji'an's friendly big brother personality is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

"I just forgot to check the luggage, and I need you to help me... Thank you." She turned her head slightly and looked at her side carefully.

Beside her is Liang Xiao, who was the same age and joined the company at the same time, but seemed much calmer, "I'm too lazy to wear a thick tie," he looked at Ye Ji'an's diagonally striped tie, "I'm going to buy it at Baikov Airport."

And then come back?You don't have a suitcase to put it in. I'm afraid you will throw it in a hotel casually. If you can predict your own fate with your clothes, you will definitely shed tears in Moscow.Ye Ji'an suddenly felt that he knew Liang Xiao too well, "Okay, let's all have a good rest." He put his trouser pockets in and leisurely returned to his cabin.

It was really just like the previous plan, Ye Ji'an completed a carefree high-quality sleep in the sky, woke up feeling that the world was beautiful, and this beauty continued until the landing, the sky was sunny, the city was The snow is white, the snow is so white that it turns blue, and everything that is noisy or dead in the city, the good and the bad, the new buildings and the old squares, are all buried in the large pure sea.

Ye Ji'an likes to watch snow, and the Slavic snow, just like the Slavic people and novels, made him feel refreshed. After settling in the hotel, a group of six people wrapped their coats tightly and went out for the banquet. The snow fell again and hit him. The car windows didn't melt, they just piled up there, creating a neat grainy feel. Under the street lights, each piece seemed to have different textures, so beautiful that Ye Ji'an couldn't help but took out his phone to take pictures. Everything is new for tourists.

The company sent by the other party was a Toyota Alphard, which was driving fast on the spacious streets between the old castles. Liang Xiao was sitting in the co-pilot, looking back at him silently. The down jacket bought at the airport was pure black. Yes, the design is also simple, similar to a down sack purely used to keep warm, Liang Xiao has a simplicity that has never been seen before.

"The jet lag is reversed?" In front of many colleagues, Ye Ji'an couldn't say anything else.

"Listen to senior, I have been sleeping on the plane." Liang Xiao frowned.

"Haha, me too," before putting away his phone, Ye Ji'an quietly sent him some snowflakes he had taken, "I have to start working tomorrow." That's what he said.

Liang Xiao lowered his eyebrows and nodded, but did not say a word. Within 2 minutes, his message came back, and it was a few lines in Russian:

Исердцебьетсявупоенье,

Идлянеговоскресливновь

Ибожество, ивдохновенье,

Ижизнь, ислезы, илюбовь.

Ye Ji'an didn't know what he was doing, and he had a second foreign language?I didn't even mention it on my resume.

【What's the meaning? ] he replied.

[A poem by Pushkin. ] Liang Xiao's explanation is very concise.

[Senior looked at Xue, reminded me of these few sentences. 】Followed another one.

[OK, I went to Google. 】

[!I didn't expect] Liang Xiao turned his head and glared at him, as if he was in a hurry.

[I didn't expect what? ] Ye Ji'an happily met his gaze.

Liang Xiao bowed his head and typed quickly, 【I want to translate for senior by myself, I can also read it out emotionally, wait for the work to finish smoothly, okay? 】

Ye Ji Anxin said, what kind of magical code is this? He still needs to lie in wait for so long, but he decided to take care of the strange and sensitive thoughts of young people. After all, 27 years old is also the age for him to read poetry.

[Then I'll just wait and work hard these two days. 】Sent it out, to prove his innocence, he put away his phone under Liang Xiao’s gaze, and didn’t touch Google at all.

The business trip is expected to take twelve days. On the sixth day, everything is indeed correct. Whether it is a work inspection or a private communication, everything is going well with the other company. Ye Ji'an can see that The hope of returning home on time for the Chinese New Year holiday, however, there are still things that bother him, mainly because of two points:

First, eat an unaccustomed diet.

Second, Liang Xiao who can't wake up.

It's not that Liang Xiao has the spirit of getting up again, nor is it that he is groggy and inefficient at work all day long. On the contrary, he is still the same as before. That fluent Russian is beyond comprehension.But Ye Ji'an could tell that this person was not as calm as before. The increasingly blue eye bags and his increasingly reticent state all indicated that Liang Xiao was suffering from severe sleep deprivation.

"Did you sleep well at night?" Ye Ji'an asked the same question.

"Ah? It's okay," Liang Xiao just laughed, "Sometimes senior doesn't call me, so I can't get up."

Why am I so unbelievable?You are a person who knows how to smear honey all day long, so just wait.Ye Jian thought.

On the seventh night, Ye Ji'an put the surprise attack into practice. He thought that when he met a person, he could still tell whether he was asleep a minute ago. Sudden death due to lack of sleep.They are all single-person suites. Liang Xiao's 1 and his 402 are separated by a legal old Chen. At 404:02 in the middle of the night, he set the alarm clock and knocked on the door at 30 amidst the snoring of the old Chen next door.

Ye Ji'an also felt nervous when he rang the bell.

"Who is it?" Liang Xiao's voice came quickly, very softly, not far away, and asked again in English, followed by Russian.

"I," Ye Ji'an folded his arms, "quickly open the door for your brother." He said bluntly again.

The footsteps in the door were hurried, the door lock clicked open, and the headlights were turned on in the room. The gray trousers and white T-shirt on Liang Xiao looked quite soft, obviously suitable for sleeping.He poked his head out and looked down at Ye Ji'an.

"Did you not sleep?" Ye Ji'an raised his eyelids.

"Did senior suffer from insomnia?" Liang Xiao looked innocent.

Ye Ji'an was very angry at once, thinking that you are quite good at turning the other way, "Hey, did I ask you if you have insomnia? How many hours have you slept these days?"

Liang Xiao was startled, but actually kept his mouth shut. Although he didn't admit it, he didn't intend to justify it.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem with the room?" Ye Ji'an felt like an enthusiastic head teacher who cared about the health of teenagers.

"My problem." Liang Xiao whispered, rubbed his face, took a step back, and squeezed the doorknob tightly, "Senior, I need to be alone, leave me alone."

Ye Ji'an quickly stuck his elbow on the edge of the door before he closed the door. Seeing that he seemed to be in pain, Liang Xiao immediately gave up resisting and tried to hold his arm, "I really want to call you a little ancestor," Ye Ji'an glared at him, and tugged at the hem of his vest, "I'm freezing to death, let me in quickly."
