disappearing light years

The rare goodbye that night became a late-night secret.

One of the biggest characteristics of the so-called secret is that it will be known by others sooner or later. Therefore, in order to prevent Yan Shuo and He Xiaoli from seeing his strange state, Chi Mu did not take the initiative to ask two old friends out for a heart-to-heart talk. Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that, One of his old friends is also confused by an extremely difficult matter.

He Xiaoli suddenly realized that the time had come for him to pay the price for the only act of the Virgin in his life.

"It's that kid." The lobby manager pointed to a figure lying on the bar not far away, "I can't drink so much and yet I want to drink so much. You go and see."

Through the dim light, He Xiaoli looked at the man's back for a long time and held his forehead.

"Go down and do your work first." He patted the lobby manager on the shoulder, sighed, put his hands in his pockets, and walked towards the man who was still pouring wine into his mouth.

Sitting down beside him, He Xiaoli took a closer look, and it really was the boy named Xiang Lang.

"Don't drink it." He Xiaoli snatched the wine glass from his hand, "Do you think these wines are boiled water?"

Xiang Lang's face was flushed, his originally bright eyes were now red and swollen like two walnuts, "Sir, is it you..."

"You still recognize me, which means you're not too drunk." He Xiaoli patted his face, "Can you walk?"

Unexpectedly, Xiang Lang grabbed He Xiaoli's wrist, and said in a hoarse voice: "Sir, come and have a drink with me, it's boring to drink alone."

He Xiaoli frowned more and more tightly, as if he was thinking about something, Xiang Lang grinned, and said again: "By the way... last time... I haven't thanked you for what happened last time..."

"Tell me your home phone number." He Xiaoli's voice was impatient, "I'll call your family and ask them to pick you up."

"I don't have a home."

"what?"

"My family...just me and my mother...my mother is hospitalized again...so I don't have a home now." Xiang Lang said with a low smile, "I'm a fucking useless trash."

He Xiaoli stopped talking nonsense, and directly found the mobile phone from Xiang Lang's jeans pocket, searched all the way along the phone book, and soon found a very intimate name in it, and pressed the dial to make a call.

The phone rang twice before it was connected. A crisp girl's voice came out of the receiver, but she said, "I told you we broke up, what else do you want!"

He Xiaoli was stunned for a moment.

"You still don't think I'm bothering you enough, Xiang Lang, I admit that you treat me very well, but this society is very realistic, I also want to live, and I also want to find a man with capital to marry. Look at your mother still living in In the hospital, I can't follow you to drink Northwest Wind after graduation, I beg you to let me go!"

He Xiaoli rolled his eyes and immediately guessed what was going on, and he didn't bother to listen to the woman's babbling anymore. He hung up the phone, looked at the drowsy Xiang Lang squinting on the bar, shook his head, He asked a few waiters to help him to the lounge upstairs, and called Yan Shuo again.

In fact, he didn't understand why he called Yan Shuo over. He just thought that depending on the child's condition, it might be better if a doctor was there. Jumped three times, "Isn't this Xiang Lang, why is he here?"

"You know him too?" Yan Shuo's words immediately aroused He Xiaoli's curiosity. Under his persistent questioning, Yan Shuo sighed and shook his head and said, "It's nothing, it's just that his mother lives in our hospital."

Yan Shuo works in a well-known tertiary hospital in Beijing. He has seen countless patients, and he may remember very few of them except severe patients, let alone those family members of patients who are several times more than patients, but Xiang Lang Happens to be an exception.

Xiang Lang's mother suffers from acute leukemia and requires regular chemotherapy to relieve her symptoms.Anyone with a little understanding of the market knows that the cost of chemotherapy in the hospital has always been horribly expensive. Xiang Lang's father died young, and he had to rely on his mother to provide for him to go to college. on his shoulders.

It would be embarrassing for a person who has been in the society for many years to suddenly suffer such a thing, not to mention that Xiang Lang is still a student in his early 20s. With work-study programs and loans, he can barely make up for tuition fees, but he has to pay for himself. Mother's medical expenses, however, cannot be settled with a few hundred dollars.

Xiang Lang has a standard schedule in his daily life. He gets up at 04:30 in the morning, helps the florist at the school gate to deliver flowers to the morning market, rushes back to the school cafeteria as a cleaner at 06:30, eats at 07:30, and then goes to class.He brings meals to the hospital at noon, and there is usually no class in the afternoon, so he goes to work as a stocker in the supermarket, and after dinner, he goes to the KTV to work as a waiter for two hours, and then comes to the hospital to deliver dinner, and then goes back to school.

It's a pity that even if he takes four jobs, it's only a little over 100 yuan a day, which is a drop in the bucket compared to the black hole-like medical expenses.

"I don't believe in destiny, but sometimes I really don't understand why God always brings some inexplicable suffering to those very sensible children when there are a lot of dandies here in Beijing. You know why I told Xiang Lang Is the impression so deep? His mother’s chemotherapy expenses are mainly on the medicine. If those medicines are taken from the hospital pharmacy, they will be about [-]% more expensive than those directly from the wholesaler. Paying money, riding a bicycle to the wholesale market to get medicine and bringing it back, [-] kilometers before and after, I asked him why he didn’t go by car, and he said that he would exercise by cycling, but in fact, I probably guessed that he was reluctant to part with the few dollars for the car.”

As soon as Yan Shuo finished talking, He Xiaoli's expression was so gloomy that it seemed to be covered by a dark cloud. He asked Yan Shuo, "This kid has a girlfriend, have you seen it?"

"There is a girl who has accompanied him to the hospital a few times." Yan Shuo pushed his glasses solemnly, "She is very beautiful, and they match well together, but I don't like that girl. It's all about vanity."

At this moment, the waiter had already prepared the hangover tea and brought it in. He Xiaoli supported Xiang Lang's head, while Yan Shuo took the cup, pinched his mouth professionally, and poured down the whole cup of hangover tea. The palms on Xiang Lang's face were a little wet, and he lowered his eyes curiously, and saw the water stains constantly leaching from the corners of Xiang Lang's eyes.

"Drunk like this without stopping, this brat is broken in love today." He Xiaoli suppressed the inexplicable sourness in his heart, and Chao Yanshuo joked: "I don't have half a dime and I still have the courage to come to my place to drink, it seems that I am sure." As long as I am a talkative person, I can give him a free order."

"Don't make trouble with a child, you won't go bankrupt if you drink a few drinks for nothing."

"Have I ever said that I want to care about it? Judging by his appearance, he probably won't be able to leave. With me, I will open a bar now, and it will also serve as a relief station for poor students." He Xiaoli took off Xiang Lang's coat, shoes and socks, and from He took out the quilt from the closet to cover him.This lounge was originally the place where He Xiaoli rolled the sheets after catching a good guy in the bar, so the configuration is quite complete, and the bedding is all new. Finally, after adjusting the temperature of the central air conditioner, he patted Yan Shuo on the shoulder, The two went out one after the other.

Yan Shuo didn't leave immediately, he had nothing to do when he went home.Gu Mingan is on a business trip. Recently, his company seems to have a lot of business. He is on business trips every three days. In the first few days, Yan Shuo felt that this feeling was very good. He will be taken care of, but after that, he feels very uncomfortable.

What can a person do to live alone, read newspapers, watch TV, eat and sleep, the room is empty and cold, even when he wakes up in the middle of the night and habitually wants to hold the hands of the people around him, all he touches is shriveled bedding.

I haven't seen you for a day, but the word "Three Autumns" is not bad for Yan Shuo now. If Gu Ming'an still called back every day, Yan Shuo would even suspect that the man was having an affair.

"Do you think Gu Mingan will have an affair?"

Yan Shuo suddenly said something, and He Xiaoli almost spit out half a sip of wine.

"Impossible!" He Xiaoli said firmly, "You don't look at the way Gu Ming'an treats you. If you keep it in your mouth, you're afraid of melting, and if you hold it in your hand, you're afraid of flying away. He's more likely to have an affair than you are to give birth to a child. Even less likely."

Yan Shuo is very proud that his lover is affirmed by his friends, but no matter what others say, he can't relax when the person he misses is not around.

"I also know that I am supercilious, but look at Chi Mu, he is such a good person, but Cheng Hao still..."

"Okay." He Xiaoli interrupted him, "Do you know what you look like now, like the kind of resentful woman who has nothing to do every day at home and suspects her husband is cheating, if you are not a man, I really doubt you are It's menopause."

Yan Shuo silently took a sip of wine.

He Xiaoli put his arms around his shoulders, and said with a smile: "Don't confuse Gu Ming'an with the scum we know, well, I admit that I usually like to hurt that dead fish face, but I, He Xiaoli, have seen countless people in the romantic arena, look People's kung fu can never be wrong, you have to have some confidence in the person you love."

In fact, He Xiaoli would like to add that even if you don't have confidence in him, you have to have confidence in the scalpel in your hand, because He Xiaoli believes that if one day Gu Ming'an really cheated, then even if he chased him to the ends of the earth, Yan Shuo would definitely Having the ability to make Gu Mingan lose the ability to be a man from now on, because he just has that courage.

When Xiang Lang woke up the next morning, he still hadn't recovered from the environment he was in. When the waiter led him into He Xiaoli's office, his handsome face had almost turned into a red persimmon.

He Xiaoli narrowed his peach blossom eyes, with his legs crossed on the desk, looked at the stiff boy in front of him and said with a smile: "Little friend, you really drank a lot last night!"

Xiang Lang felt that his face was so hot that he could fry an egg, so he just kept saying, "I'm sorry, I... I will definitely pay." He still thought that He Xiaoli was blaming him for drinking Bawang wine , but it was also his fault.Unexpectedly, He Xiaoli suddenly said: "You are about to graduate, have you found a job yet?"

Xiang Lang was taken aback, "Not yet." In fact, his grades are very good, and he went to a prestigious university, but because he always runs between the school and the hospital, he never participated in those job fairs.

"It's fine if I don't have one. I need a special assistant now. I don't know if you are interested in this position." He Xiaoli said quietly, and at the same time carefully looked at the reaction on Xiang Lang's face.He had planned to recruit a personal assistant for a long time, but he has been unable to meet someone he likes. Yesterday, he learned about the personality of the boy in front of him from Yan Shuo. Blind.

Xiang Lang obviously didn't expect He Xiaoli to throw an olive branch to him suddenly.

"I'm a solid person. I don't have any special requirements. I just want to find an assistant who can do a good job and won't be lazy. Of course, as long as you do a good job, the treatment will definitely not be bad. I heard that your mother is in the hospital. I can even give you a proper subsidy for your medical expenses. Of course, working for me will be very hard, and it depends on you if you want to."

He placed all the pros and cons in front of Xiang Lang, and He Xiaoli pushed out a draft contract.

"If you feel you can do the job, sign it."

With the black and white words in front of his eyes, He Xiaoli undoubtedly threw Xiang Lang a huge temptation.

Never give up any talents around you that can be used for you.This is another way of doing business that he learned from Zhou Yanyu. It is true that He Xiaoli is not familiar with Xiang Lang, but Xiang Lang's serious and persistent energy caught his eyes.

Xiang Lang hesitated for a while, then picked up the pen.
