shameless licking

It was past evening, and the winter night came earlier.

The sunset outside the window has already left work, and now it is replaced with a black curtain.The moon and the stars are moving to their positions bit by bit.

Jin Yuan casually picked up the wolfberry and chrysanthemum health tea that Ji Shuyi made for him on the table, and took a sip.

Looking at the content of the other party's message, he typed the word "not busy", thought about it for a while, deleted it and typed it again, and replied with vengeance.

-Jin Yuan: What's the matter?

The other party seldom took the initiative to send messages to him, so even if the two of them had more contacts, Jin Yuan took the initiative to post them most of the time.Such a rare situation always gave him a sixth sense that he would go to the Three Treasures Hall for everything, and that he was either rape or robbery.

After waiting for a while, Ling Yu replied.

-Ling Yu: It's all right

Why don't you take the initiative to chat with me?Jin Yuan thought, feeling that this matter is a bit new.So, the troublemaker inside came out to make trouble again.

-Jin Yuan: Oh, did you miss me?

Sure enough, as soon as these words were uttered, there was nothing to say over there as if the sound had been silenced.Jin Yuan had expected it, so he continued typing in a calm manner.

-Jin Yuan: Just kidding

-Jin Yuan: I've been very busy recently, the year-end summary and the annual meeting collided

At the end, I added a sentence: I will see you in two days.

-Ling Yu: Yes

Jin Yuan, who thought this was the end of the vocabulary, wanted to exit the chat window, and a new message came in the next second.

-Ling Yu: Is it convenient to accompany me to have a meal with grandpa?

Jin Yuan was really stunned for a long time. First, he almost forgot the hasty meeting with Grandpa Ling Yu that day. Second, he really didn't expect that there would be more to come. After all, the other party ordered him to stop it on the way back. He asked too many questions, and he didn't ask any questions in the days that followed.

-Jin Yuan: It is convenient, it must be convenient

-Jin Yuan: When?I am on call

Ling Yu ended the conversation with "Well, let's get in touch again."But Jin Yuan felt that he had unknowingly made a big step forward in the other party's friendship.

Several people in the editing team have been working overtime with him to complete the work recently. Ji Shuyi floated to Jin Yuan's office holding the document with dark circles under her eyes and said, "Editor-in-Chief, you sign this document."

Jin Yuan glanced at it hastily, and signed his name with a swipe of a pen.

Ji Shuyi glanced at their editor-in-chief suspiciously, and couldn't help asking: "Did anything good happen to Editor-in-Chief Jin? So happy."

Jin Yuan was full of doubts: "What?"

"The corners of your mouth are turned up to the sky. The so-called people are refreshed on happy occasions. You can still maintain your spirits with such overtime intensity. Can you secretly tell me what's good?" Ji Shuyi said in a detective tone out.

"..." Jin Yuan wanted to ask if it was so obvious?Is he just happy to be treated like a friend by others?However, when he opened his mouth, he asked solemnly: "Have you finished writing the year-end summary?"

Ji Shuyi looked like an enemy: "Not yet, I won't bother you. I'll go back and fight."

...

Within a few days, Ling Yu took the initiative to set a time with Jin Yuan for dinner with his grandfather, which was set for a weekend.

It was near noon this day.

Ling Yu personally drove a car to pick up Jin Yuan. He had been a full-time driver for the other party too many times, but when he looked back, he found that he seldom took the other party's car.

On the night before this day, Jin Yuan shamelessly consulted his good brother Song Kaiyang about the details of giving gifts to the older generation.Ever since he helped his good brother get online, Song Kaiyang has always said that he must thank him when he comes back during the New Year, and after he got acquainted with Designer Ling, he happened to meet his elders at a restaurant and invited him to be a guest when he had time , this meeting is really invited.

Although Song Kaiyang had doubts in his heart, he didn't have too many guesses about his benefactor, so he told him everything he knew.

So, when Ling Yu saw Jin Yuan, who was carrying a big bag and a small bag with his hands full, coming from the gate of the community, he regretted it for a moment, and even wanted to drive away.

Of course, this thought only flashed in his mind for 0.01 second.

Jin Yuan opened the door of the rear seat directly, and sat in with two gifts. Because he was afraid that there would not be much space for him to play in the passenger seat, he directly chose the rear seat.

Before Ling Yu could say anything, Jin Yuan started to speak: "Sorry, I don't know what your grandpa likes, I bought some of this and that, I hope he will like it."

"Don't you ask me first?" It was rare that Ling Yu didn't tell him the word "no need" directly, but used rhetorical questions.

Jin Yuan leaned forward and approached the driver's seat with his whole body, and asked jokingly, "If I asked, it would appear empty-handed now, right?"

Ling Yu: "..." That's right.

Jin Yuan took it as the default when the other party didn't answer: "I showed up empty-handed on my birthday last time, and this time your grandpa invited me to dinner, I can't eat and drink for free, I will feel sorry." voice.

"Well, up to you." Ling Yu replied lightly.

When Jin Yuan was a full-time driver, he would occasionally chatter, but now he doesn't need to be distracted to drive, so he can talk more.

And Ling Yu probably had to take the other party to have dinner with his grandfather, so it was inevitable that some things would be known, so there was no selective concealment of the problems in the conversation.It was also because of this that Jin Yuan learned that the other party's parents divorced when he was in junior high school. He was sentenced to his mother, and he also had a younger brother who was sentenced to his father.

The middle-aged man who looked like him at the last birthday party was his father, and the woman next to the middle-aged man was his stepmother in name, but he hadn't had much contact with him; she was adopted after his parents divorced. When he came back to live, he also brought back a little girl, who was a few years younger than his brother, and a half-sister, which was evidence that his father had cheated.

It is said that after the younger brother entered high school, he proposed to go abroad to find his mother and elder brother. After getting permission, he never came back. He is currently studying there at university.

After listening to the story, Jin Yuan was silent for a long time until he got out of the car, feeling distressed for some reason.His own independence has been tempered because his family is busy with business and takes less care of him, but he has never lacked the warmth and care of his family.And he felt that most of Ling Yu's refusal and maverick came from family factors.

The young mother took him abroad, but she didn't survive well and couldn't take good care of him.At that age, he was used to being silent for the first time in a country where he didn't understand the language. He didn't like contact with strangers, and he always created an atmosphere that strangers should not enter.

Like Jin Yuan, his parents were busy with business in the early years, and they spent most of their time in foster care with their grandparents when they were young. During the time when their parents quarreled and divorced, grandpa took care of him the most, and grandma left earlier, so even with father Cut off contact, but he often talks on the phone with his grandfather in private.

And the big reason why he returned to China to develop is because his grandfather started to be in poor health last year, and he hoped to spend more time with the old man in his last days.

After hearing this, Jin Yuan couldn't tell what it was like.

As soon as Ling Yu's grandfather saw Jin Yuan coming in with large and small gifts, he kept refusing: "You child, it's fine if you come, what else do you bring?" Then he looked at Ling Yu with a little reproach He said in a tone of voice: "Did you just eat a potluck without telling others? How dare we bring so many gifts and just treat him to a potluck..."

Ling Yu, who was helping to carry things, found it hard to refute Grandpa: "..."

On the contrary, Jin Yuan answered with ease: "Excuse me, grandpa, you can accept it. At most, I often come to have a few more home-cooked meals with you, don't you think so?"

The old man really smiled with relief: "You have a sweet mouth. Come on, you're hungry, come and eat."

Because of poor health and limited mobility, the old man insisted on living alone since Ling Yu’s parents divorced. The son couldn’t hold back the old man, so he had to spend money to hire a nurse and aunt to cook and clean. It is the ingredients carefully selected by the aunt, and it is a good dish.

The three chatted while eating, no, to be precise, the three chatted while eating.

After learning that Jin Yuan knew about Ling Yu's family situation, the old man wanted to open the chatterbox, but couldn't close it.

"In so many years, this is the first time I heard him say that he has made friends." The old man sighed, shaking his head as if looking back on the past, and continued: "When he was young, he didn't like playing with children of the same age. When he was in elementary school, he often had classmates I came home to ask him to do homework, and he didn't like to talk to me. Later, I went abroad with his mother, and I often asked him about his situation. Striving for success, I have excellent grades since I was a child, I don’t need adults to worry about my studies, but I have always been worried about whether this child has some kind of mental illness, and he doesn’t even have any friends. Now it seems that I am worrying too much..."

Ling Yu didn't say a word, and ate elegantly and quietly. During the period, he raised his eyelids a few times, looked at his grandfather, and then looked at Jin Yuan thoughtfully.

Jin Yuan received too much information today, and it was difficult to digest for a while, so he boasted indiscriminately: "Your grandson is too powerful. Most people can't be his friend. It's my honor to be the friend he said. "

By the way, I also praise myself.

Satisfied, he wanted to praise his wit, but just met Ling Yu's thoughtful gaze, and suddenly felt guilty.

As soon as the old man heard others praise his grandson, he happily continued to tell the other party more stories about Ling Yu's childhood. Jin Yuan listened very carefully, and occasionally asked a few more questions in some stories.

"I'm full." Ling Yu put down his chopsticks and said calmly, "Go out for a while."

He got up and walked towards the terrace garden outside.

The conversation between the two of them was interrupted by his utterance and action, and they couldn't return to the topic just now. The old man sighed again: "Look, this kid has such a temper, it's great to have a friend like you." Well, I don't expect to see him get a girlfriend and get married in my lifetime."

Jin Yuan was optimistic: "I think this character has a good temper." Then, he said with relief: "There will always be someone who likes it."

The old man laughed and boasted, "You are so cute."

The author has something to say: Jin Yuan: I must work hard to realize what I said.
