Self-cultivation of spare tire

The party was very lively, but Ye Xi's tears made Chen Zhu feel at a loss.

"Chen Zhu, I have something to tell you."

Looking at the tears on Ye Xi's eyelashes and the red ears, Chen Zhu already guessed what he was going to say.

Chen Zhu couldn't bear to refuse this "poor little boy"'s invitation, so he followed Ye Xi to the grape trellis in the orchard.

The vineyard is not yet in the picking season, and the slender vines meander into a small world. When the wind blows at night, you can see fragments of stars and a full moon.

Under the vines, Ye Xi looked up at the starlight on his head, the reason for crying, his eyes were bright and clean, and there was still a touch of blush on the tip of his nose.

Chen Zhu didn't speak, just quietly waiting for Ye Xi to speak.

After a while, Ye Xi seemed to finally muster up the courage, and said to Chen Zhu: "Chen Zhu, I want you to be happy."

Chen Zhu still held a glass of cold watermelon juice in his hand, and the cool watermelon smell made people feel comfortable physically and mentally.

In fact, Ye Xi felt like watermelon juice in his hand—it could dispel the summer heat and make every wrinkle in his heart iron.

But Chen Zhu knew that what he needed now was not happiness, or in other words, not this short and uncertain happiness.

From Chen Zhu's point of view, Ye Xi's liking was just a whim, just like the wind on this summer night, blowing gently, making his heart feel comfortable.

But summer always passes.Chen Zhu always wanted to move forward.

"I like you very much too." Chen Zhu said.

Ye Xi jumped up anxiously. He stared at a pair of big watery eyes and said eagerly: "There is no but, there is no but, right?"

"Chen Zhu," Ye Xi approached, the warm breath on his body made Chen Zhu retreat, "All the sentences starting with 'although but' are rejections, I don't want to hear them."

Chen Zhu smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, then I won't say anything."

Ye Xi lowered his head, "You like me too, and I like you too, so why can't we be together."

He said: "Chen Zhu, you are always unhappy, I want you to be happy..."

"Ye Xi." Chen Zhu stood up straighter, put down the drink in his hand, raised his hand, and pressed it on Ye Xi's shoulder, "Of course I believe that love can make people happy."

Even if he was severely hurt, or even delayed by his previous relationship, Chen Zhu still has a pure heart, looking forward to and believing in the beauty of love.

The bruised boy still believes in love.

The summer night wind is cool and brisk, jumping across the mountains and fields, passing through the countryside, passing the nose with the aroma all the way.

Chen Zhu's hair was slightly disheveled by the wind, and his clean and beautiful eyebrows and eyes under the night sky can almost make people intoxicated instantly.

It is said that a beautiful skin is incompatible with an interesting soul, but Chen Zhu, under the precipitation of time, has washed out more and more clean and beautiful eyebrows and soul.

He said slowly: "Ye Xi, there are ideals besides romance. Love makes people happy, and ideals are the same."

Chen Zhu: "I'm not unhappy." He smiled lightly, his eyes seemed to have stars, "I'm chasing my own eternal, long-lasting happiness and happiness, Ye Xi, do you understand?"

Of course Ye Xi understands, after all, he is not really a heartless idiot.

"Chen Zhu, you still rejected me." Ye Xi lowered his eyes, his slender eyelashes swept a faint shadow, and he said disappointedly, "I am cheap and short-lived happiness, you don't need it, right?"

Chen Zhudi didn't know whether to laugh or laugh, touched his soft hair, and said, "No, I am very happy with you. But I will not stop for you - it may be cruel to say this, but I still have my own ideals to fulfill." to pursue."

Ye Xi said dissatisfiedly: "I will not be your obstacle!" He stood up straighter and stood shoulder to shoulder with Chen Zhu, "I can stand by your side and pursue your ideals with you."

Chen Zhu couldn't understand the meaning of his words, paused, and asked him aloud, "Ye Xi, do you know what it means to say that?"

"I know you're going to the United States." Ye Xi approached, and held Chen Zhu's shoulder tightly to prevent him from retreating, "Can I go with you too? Chen Zhu, what I want is very simple, just to be with you."

Ye Xi is indeed a simple and pure person, in his world it seems that any problem is easy to solve.

Confess to someone you like, and follow in their footsteps if you don't want to part.

Ye Xi's love is simple, pure, straightforward and passionate.

Perhaps it was the sincerity in the boy's eyes that seemed familiar, which made Chen Zhu reluctant to refuse.

Chen Zhu thought for a long time, and finally said slowly: "If you want, we can slowly build the foundation of happiness.

Just like the Lego you like to play, if you want to spell out the perfect main body, don’t you have to um—”

Before Chen Zhu could speak, he was hugged into his arms by the excited little wolf dog.

"Hahaha!" Ye Xi laughed happily, "Chen Zhu, I'm so happy!"

Ye Xi even hugged Chen Zhu around, wishing the whole world knew how he felt, "Yeah! We're going to America together!"

"Chen, are you really leaving?"

Chen Zhu has been in the small town of Carmel for nearly a month. The life in the small town is indeed very leisurely, with buildings and streets full of artistic atmosphere, and a long and beautiful coastline.

The place where he works is a local tabloid newspaper, and Chen Zhu's job is to distribute newspapers to various places.

After finishing work at dusk, Chen Zhu would ride his bicycle along the seaside promenade to enjoy the sea breeze.

However, the small town was not the end of his stay. After confirming that there was no movement from Xu Lanting, Chen Zhu planned to venture into the outside world.

The boss liked this hard-working young man very much, and even offered to raise his salary to keep him.

Chen Zhu's English ability has improved a lot, but he is still not proficient in euphemism, so he bluntly revealed his whereabouts.

"I want to go to Pennsylvania, because there are free public classes and libraries there."

The boss looked at Chen Zhu, and gave Chen Zhu a thumbs up, "Chen, I wish you luck." After finishing speaking, the boss turned around and searched for something in the drawer.

He gave Chen Zhu an extra sum of money, not too much, but enough for him to live in the new city for a while.

Below the stack of money is a book - "The Moon and Sixpence"

The boss put his hips on his hips and said in a proud tone, "I was as energetic as you when I was young, but I lacked a little firmness. Chen, I hope you can chase your own moon firmly and confidently." .”

Chen Zhu took it and sincerely said thank you.

He is indeed chasing his "moon" with determination and enthusiasm.

"Brother, we can go to the town of Hershey for a stroll! The chocolate there is very delicious!" Ye Xi was very excited when he heard that he was going to Pennsylvania. His eyes were sparkling, and they were very cute when they blinked.

Before Chen Zhu had time to say that he was cute, he saw Ye Xi resisting Chen Zhu's suitcase with a "cute and lovely" face, and easily put it into the trunk.

That suitcase is almost full of books, and the total amount must exceed one hundred catties...

And after Ye Xi put the suitcase away, humming a little tune, he folded Chen Zhu's bicycle in threes and fives, and put it into the trunk with one hand.

Seeing Chen Zhu standing there quietly, Ye Xi patted the dust off his hands, ran up and down, took Chen Zhu's hand, shook Chen Zhu's arm, and acted like a baby: "Brother, I really like chocolate, let's go Let's go!"

"Cough—" Chen Zhu couldn't help but find it funny when the fierce man acted like a baby.He suppressed a smile and said, "Okay. So you like chocolate, and you haven't said it before."

"Then I'll say it now," Ye Xi hugged Chen Zhu's arm like a clingy puppy, "you have to remember it well."

"En." Chen Zhu wrote it down in his heart.After all, he promised Ye Xi that if he wanted to build a foundation and get to know each other well, then he would also try to get to know this "little sweetheart" who looks cute and has infinite strength.

Life in Pennsylvania is indeed more difficult. The high rent and high prices are challenges for Chen Zhu.

He rented a house close to the suburbs, which is nearly four and ten minutes' drive from the city center, and Chen Zhu's bicycle is obviously slower.

Fortunately, Chen Zhu found a job as a restaurant waiter.The salary is enough for him to live on, and with the tips from the guests, Chen Zhu can save a little money.

Although Chen Zhu is exhausted from the long commute every day, he still lights up a small lamp at night to absorb the nutrients of knowledge bit by bit.

No matter how tired he was at work during the day, when he returned to that small house, Chen Zhu would hold up obscure books one after another.

Sometimes, Chen Zhu would even fall asleep on the desk, only to be woken up by Ye Xi who came in to deliver breakfast.

"Brother, why are you sleeping on the desk again?" Ye Xi frowned, and while taking out the finished sandwich, said distressedly, "You are too tired like this."

In Ye Xi's view, Chen Zhu worked so hard to the point of insanity.

In his smooth life, he had never seen anyone who pushed himself to such an extent.

Of course Ye Xi offered to help Chen Zhu, but Chen Zhu politely refused.

He was even more puzzled why Chen Zhu made himself so hard.

He hugged Chen Zhu from behind, and muttered, "Brother, if you continue like this, you won't be able to take it anymore."

Chen Zhu stretched his curled shoulders, and rubbed the soft hair of the little sweetheart on his shoulders, "I'm fine."

He turned around and saw the sandwich on the table, "Thank you." After getting along for a few days, Chen Zhu found that Ye Xi looked careless, but was unexpectedly very careful, and even took care of him in turn.

"Hmph," Ye Xi seemed a little annoyed, "You're always like this."

"Huh?" Chen Zhu was a little confused, "Then I'll make you breakfast next time, although my cooking skills are not very good——"

"No!" Ye Xi got up and said dissatisfiedly, "You always look like you are going to fight hard when the sky is falling. Everyone needs to rest. You are not a machine. How can you keep doing this? You just like everything. Fighting alone, Chen Zhu, I, I also want to help you..."

At the end, Ye Xi's eyes were slightly red.

Chen Zhu realized that the other party was feeling sorry for him.

Seeing Ye Xi's red eyes, Chen Zhu felt an inexplicable softness in his heart, and he comforted him slowly, "Well, how about my rest this weekend, let's go to Hershey Town together."

"No." Ye Xi approached, seemed to hesitate for a while, and then forcibly squeezed into the gap between the desks - sitting on Chen Zhu's lap, "You need to rest, you don't need to take me out to play."

The weight on the legs could not be ignored, Chen Zhu sat up straighter, breathed a sigh of relief, and spoke with some difficulty: "Ye Xi—"

It's a bit heavy, Chen Zhu really can't bear it...

Ye Xi's beautiful eyes still had mist in them, he blinked and looked at Chen Zhu in a dazed manner.

"Brother, what's the matter?"

Innocent and innocent.

Chen Zhu looked at those innocent eyes for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said, "It's okay."

"Brother..." Ye Xi seemed to be lying on Chen Zhu's shoulder, but in fact he hugged him tightly. He leaned on Chen Zhu's shoulder and smiled meaningfully, "I like you so much."

"Hmm..." Chen Zhu took a deep breath and sat up straight.

King Kong Barbie is King Kong Barbie... Chen Zhu thought, he couldn't bear to say "get off my lap" to such an innocent and lovely face.

"roll."

The assistant bent down and picked up the scattered documents on the ground, and handed them to the person in charge of the project.

The complexions of several persons in charge were already gloomy, and they were so scolded by Xu Lanting that they didn't even dare to vent their anger.

"I said, transforming from real estate." Xu Lanting's face was not angry, but his voice was terribly cold, "You put your hands into the new real estate with one foot?"

The leading person in charge was already sweating on his forehead, and he explained anxiously: "It is true that we did not recruit this project, but, but, I think it can make money, so..."

"So you started thinking about breaking ground in impoverished counties?"

The person in charge explained: "Now that the policy has come down, that county will be able to take off its hat soon. If we seize this opportunity, the housing prices there will rise in the future—"

"Shut up." Xu Lanting put his hand on his forehead, too lazy to get angry, he said in a deep voice, "Disband the entire group before this afternoon."

"This project is void, understand?" The man raised his eyes and glanced at the person opposite, and several responsible persons felt chills down their spines.

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, really couldn't figure out why they didn't make such a good deal, since the money was right in front of them, why not take it?

Back then, several companies were vying for the land.Just wait for the hats of poor counties to be lifted, and the government will build roads and subways, and housing prices will naturally rise.

The person in charge is a very prestigious person in the company, and he is related to the Xu family, so even if the Xu family is now strictly ordering the subordinates to get out of the real estate industry and carry out technological transformation.

But Zhang Cunguang insisted on taking the project at the risk of violating Xu Lanting's wishes.

The early funds for this project have already been invested, and the construction is about to start, and Zhang Cunguang can further gain a firm foothold in the company.

Zhang Cunguang is afraid of Xu Lanting, but in the face of money, he still wants to fight for it, "But the funds invested in the early stage are already a lot, and if the capital is withdrawn now, it will be a loss for the company—"

Xu Lanting glanced at him, and he instinctively closed his mouth.

"Get out." Xu Lanting took a deep breath, took off the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and threw them aside.

Zhang Cunguang sighed unwillingly, and before going out, he glanced at Xu Lanting indistinctly.

He has long been displeased with Xu Lanting's arbitrariness. The Xu family was established with the efforts of everyone, and it didn't become a leading company in the capital just because of his young master's few words.

But Zhang Cunguang had no choice but to leave with his hard-earned project, watching his hard work go to waste.

After everyone in the room went out, Huo Yan came out from behind the cubicle.

"Ideological awareness is quite high." He slowly poured himself a glass of water, "Is the evil capitalist ready to do charity?"

Xu Lanting: "If you have more behind you, hold back your hands, don't wait until there is no way out before turning back."

Some money looks like money, but it is actually a knife. Whoever touches it will be the chicken that kills the chicken to scare the monkey.

Xu Lanting asked himself that he was not a good person, but he was smarter, never seeking immediate benefits, and his eyes were always looking at the long-term direction.

This is also the reason why so many wealthy families in the capital gradually became lonely, while the Xu family became prosperous day by day.

However, what Xu Lanting did not admit was that the aftertaste of the pillow wind was still there.

Back then, Chen Zhu had instilled in him the idea of ​​earning less black-hearted money.

What are "little people always feel sorry for each other, while gentlemen are magnanimous", "ill-gotten gains are not to be taken"...

It's ridiculous to think about how serious a kid wants capitalists to be good.

Xu Lanting smiled, at least after sleeping with a little gentleman for so many days, even if he is an evil ghost, he should be tainted with some fairy spirit.

Looking at Xu Lanting with a smile in his eyes, Huo Yan sighed.

He didn't even know how to speak his next words.

Huo Yan knew Xu Lanting's temper, he could bear it, and he was cruel enough to himself - that's why he was so determined not to ask Chen Zhu everything, and curled up obediently in the cage.

However, Huo Yan knew that the reason why Xu Lanting was Xu Lanting was because this man was still an evil beast at heart.

No matter how much he could bear it, after hearing the news that Chen Zhu disappeared... Huo Yan sighed.

"What?" Xu Lanting raised his eyes and glanced at him. Huo Yan is a simple person with all emotions on his face. Xu Lanting saw his hesitation at a glance, and his heart sank, "What's wrong with Chen Zhu?"

Sure enough, when Chen Zhu was mentioned, the man swept away just now with ease, and became like a stalker.

"He," Huo Yan would not beat around the bush, said directly, "his whereabouts have been tracked down, and no one has been found for about a week—"

Before Huo Yan finished speaking, Xu Lanting rushed over.

The man's eyes suddenly burst into madness, "The person disappeared? Why did he disappear? When did he disappear?"

Xu Lanting almost growled and said, "Didn't I tell you to watch him carefully!"

Huo Yan: "Xu Lanting, calm down."

He added fuel to the fire again, and confessed everything in one go.

"You don't have to worry about his safety, he is taken care of by someone now - I checked, he is the son of a rich man in New York, named Ye Xi, Chen Zhu will not be in any danger if he follows him."

"What." Xu Lanting didn't seem to hear clearly, he watched Huo Yan's mouth open and close, but his ears were blank for a while.

"Someone is taking care of", "Ye Xi", "There is someone beside Chen Zhu"

For a moment, Xu Lanting's calculating mind went blank, and there were only a few words back and forth in his mind, which repeatedly stimulated his nerves.

"Heh..." Xu Lanting's eyes gathered a storm, he slowly let go of Huo Yan, his voice was terribly cold, "Is there a new love so soon?"

Huo Yan: "Xu Lanting, you also said at the beginning that you want to let go, now, it's better to let it be."

"Let go?" Xu Lanting raised his eyes, with the sharpness of a knife at the end of his eyes, "But what should I do, I can't do it."

The moment he heard that Chen Zhu was with someone else, Xu Lanting truly felt the urge to kill.

Or rather not impulsive.

He clearly felt that at that moment, he really wanted to kill that person named Ye Xi.
