arrogant

Chi Yue followed Guan Shuo into the car.

He has been doing import and export business in the past few years, and often travels between Europe and China. When he came back this time, he looked obviously dusty.

On the co-pilot, Chi Yue asked, "What's wrong with his body?"

Guan Shuo took a deep breath and looked sideways, "Congenital cerebrovascular malformation, same as He Wen, but not as lucky as his brother."

Chi Yue frowned, "How do you say?"

"One ear, deaf."

It's like a scorching sunny day suddenly being bombarded by violent storms, a tall building that has withstood the ravages and corrosion of the long years, but is on the verge of collapsing when the storm comes.The oxygen in the body that maintains functions seems to be sucked away bit by bit, and the feeling of suffocation comes from all directions, and Chi Yue feels that he is about to be out of breath.

Such predictions have been heard occasionally in the past seven years, and they are indeed on his list of ideas.

He once made a list for Pei Heyang's resignation.

The first reason is death from terminal illness.

But later both Guan Shuo and Cui Zhen mentioned that he went to Europe, which means he is still alive.

The second is empathy.

The third is disfigured, shameless to see others.

It's impossible not to have hatred in his heart. Chi Yue once thought about asking Guan Shuo for his address, and then killing him and beating him half to death.

But what's the use of that?

No matter what the reason is, even if it is the reason that the sky is falling and you want to bear it yourself, it is unforgivable.Because when he decides to take the future path by himself, it doesn't matter whether he loves or not.

Because the party left behind has never had the right to choose.

However, time teaches people to forget, but it cannot completely cut off the depression when learning the truth.

Chi Yue slowly let go of his fingers clenched on his pants, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Is it still cured?"

Guan Shuo sighed and shook his head, "The doctor said there is no hope, but fortunately, the hearing in the other ear is not damaged."

"Then what is the purpose of your coming here today?" Chi Yue pointed it out directly, and felt that there was no need to talk about other details, and it was enough to know the result.

Guan Shuo took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it over, "This is a letter he wrote to you, please, go back and have a look."

The three words he used were invisible oppression, but Chi Yue simply refused, "No, I don't want to do this. If you just came to tell me the result, then it's over."

"No." Guan Shuo was a little anxious, and blurted out, "I'm here to ask you for a favor."

"Go to Germany? Visit him? Accompany him? Or..." Chi Yue sneered, and finally turned his head to look into Guan Shuo's eyes, "He had to leave for so many years, suffered so much, drank and smoked all day ?”

"So, as his best friend, you hope that I can go there, persuade him, and let him live a good life?"

Guan Shuo swallowed, his lips parted slightly, and there was disbelief in his eyes.

Chi Yue laughed again, "Sorry, Guan Shuo, I can't help you with this."

After finishing speaking, he pushed open the co-pilot's door, went down, and bent down a second before closing the door, "Because of such days, I have lived for many years and survived."

"He can't die."

On the way back to the noodle shop, when he approached the alley where the two cat sons once lived, Chi Yue stopped for as long as a cigarette.

The cat nest made of red bricks, moss, and broken boxes has long since disappeared. The big shovel used to tease Pei Heyang to shovel the excrement is gone, and the few large stones thrown beside the cat nest are gone.

There's nothing left.

The scene of Pei Heyang appearing at the entrance of the alley for the first time emerged in front of Chi Yue's eyes. He had a bland, white-washed T-shirt and shorts, and a pair of green army running shoes, which really fooled him.

I thought he had no money, so I asked him to work in a noodle shop, and I would think about him in everything from now on, playing games, reviewing homework, and leaving him an extra bowl of food...

The corners of his lips raised at some point, and when he saw the long and empty alley in front of him, Chi Yue lowered his head and stamped out the cigarette butt.

When they leave, they all leave.

On New Year's Eve, the day of family reunion, after three o'clock in the afternoon, a group of people were almost drunk, and went back to their respective homes, each looking for each mother.

Chi Yue declined Sun Chaofan and Li Zheng's invitation to eat at home, closed the shop early, and went home to rest.

The last year of eating dumplings on New Year's Eve was the year that Ms. Wei left, and it is the fifth year since today.

Chi Yue always felt that it was probably because he lived so smoothly when he was a child, he didn't have to worry about outside the house, and all the regrets and pains rushed to him when he became an adult.

After Ms. Wei left, less than half a year later, Baibulaji and Heibuliuqiu couldn't do it anymore. Chi Yue searched for many pet hospitals, but they couldn't save them.The partings one after another left him riddled with holes, but it seemed that during that period of time, his temperament changed.

From the original indifference to gentleness, from the previous reluctance to communicate with others to being able to chat with others, he felt that life is only lived once, and he really left when he left.

Before leaving, it is better to live optimistically.

It doesn't seem to hurt to laugh more.

The Spring Festival Gala is a program that will be broadcast on every TV in every household, and Chi Yue is no exception when he is alone at home. However, the TV is on, and he only glances occasionally.

After the Spring Festival, the company has to select a group of outstanding works to participate in the international architectural design competition. Chi Yue signed up, which was purely coerced by his superiors. Li Chengyuan, who brought him into the industry, cherished his talents. A project with a huge amount of investment, and finally Chi Yue's name was added to the list of participants in the design.

After graduating from university, Chi Yue really stayed in this architectural design company that was budding in the industry at that time. In three years, he became Li Chengyuan's indispensable right-hand man.

Therefore, the relationship between master and apprentice is that the master assigns tasks and the apprentice is responsible for completing them.

The tip of the pen quickly scanned the imprint on the drawing, and the general outline had been formed, and only the fine corners were to be repaired. Chi Yue suddenly thought of something, and his fingertips stopped.

The final of this competition will be held in Germany.

A thought flashed through his mind, but he quickly denied it.

It's not enough to miss the chance of winning because of an irrelevant person.

After the holiday, on the first day of work, Li Chengyuan rushed to Chi Yue's office as soon as he arrived at the company. He knocked and pushed the door at the same time, "Xiao Chi, have you finished drawing the works for the competition?"

Chi Yue raised his head, "The painting is finished, do you want it now?"

"No, I just saw the email from the organizer, saying that the deadline has been moved up, because there is a problem with the competition venue in Germany, so we may have to go there earlier."

Chi Yue put down his pen and smiled, "Are you so sure that I can enter the final?"

Li Chengyuan walked to his table, stretched out his hand, raised his eyebrows and said, "If you can't make it to the final, then these judges should go get glasses."

Chi Yue put the painting tube containing the manuscripts for the competition in his hand, nodded, "Okay, if I really make it to the finals, please have dinner with everyone."

"Hey, that won't work." Li Chengyuan shook his head, "When you get the first prize, please be patient."

Chi Yue smiled and nodded.

As Li Chengyuan predicted, the judges did not need to wear glasses, and Chi Yue undoubtedly entered the final. One month later, this industry-focused competition will be held in Berlin, Germany.

Because it has been planned long ago, the visas of the travelers have been completed.

Chi Yue is the protagonist, and it is indispensable.

Li Chengyuan temporarily handed over the company's business to the deputy general agent, and went to the scene with another female secretary to support the company on behalf of the company.

At the beginning of March, the weather in Berlin was warmer than that in Lincheng. Chi Yue came out of the hotel wearing a windbreaker, carrying a drawing board and looking for a place to sketch.

He didn't let Li Chengyuan accompany him. After all, he brought someone here for an obvious purpose. He didn't want to be a light bulb.

The European architectural style is unique, and the streets are full of buildings that can be used as objects of imitation. After crossing several roads, I saw a white three-story steeple chapel, and Chi Yue found a suitable angle to sit down.

Occasionally, children playing and playing passed by, but what people didn't expect was that there were still a few children standing beside him, staring at him intently while drawing.

Because he was too focused, Chi Yue didn't notice at first, but a child suddenly exclaimed, "fantastisch!"

He understood, and looking back, several children cast admiring gazes at him.

But when people asked something in German, Chi Yue couldn't understand, and could only answer in English, "Sorry, I don't speak German very well."

A parent nearby came to help explain, saying that the children wanted to ask if they could give this painting to them, and they liked it very much.

Chi Yue asked them to wait for a while, added some details, and tore off the drawing paper from the notebook and handed it over.

The parents asked if they could sign it, and the children liked him very much.

Chi Yue smiled and signed his name, CY.

On the way back from the hotel, he was thinking, this place is also quite suitable for permanent residence, there are so many things to draw.

"Brother Yang, what are you doing? Look what we brought back!" The pretty blond girl held a painting in her hand and hurried into a gallery, her parents followed behind, reminding, "Slow down, Yang." My brother is still busy."

Pei Heyang is indeed busy. Two of his new paintings have just been framed by his master and are about to be hung on the wall for display.

The little girl walked to Pei Heyang's right and shouted, "Brother Yang!"

After hearing this, Pei Heyang turned around, saw a cute little face, and got off the bed, "Mina, why are you here?"

Mina widened her eyes and handed him the rolled up painting, "Brother Yang, look, isn't this painting very beautiful!"

Pei Heyang took the drawing paper, opened his hands slowly, and saw a small church not far from here, because the style is slightly different from the surrounding churches, all of them are often used as objects for photography or copying, "Well, That's right, Mina likes it, I'll let the master frame it for you?"

"Okay, okay, the brother who drew this picture is also very handsome, but I'm not ashamed to take a photo with him." Mina showed a regretful expression on her face.

Mina's mother smiled and said, "She even asked someone to sign it. The little girl has grown up!"

Pei Heyang looked down, and said with a smile: "Mina knows that she likes someone?"

Suddenly, he saw the two letters and unique notes in the lower right corner, and his mind went blank.

The next second, the drawing paper fell into Mina's hands, and Pei Heyang ran out desperately.
