At noon on the 24th, when the fast food restaurant delivered the lunch box, Lin Yadong came into my office with the lunch box and asked, "Yue Jiao, do you have any plans for the evening?"

"Well, let's accompany my brother to eat and sing." I took the lunch box, and there were potato shreds, green pepper shreds, and tofu shreds. But salty.Sighing, I put down the lunch box, took out two stewed chicken feet from the stock in the drawer, gave one to Lin Yadong, and asked him casually, "What are you doing at night?"

"I originally planned to invite a few old classmates who are still single to have a good meal together and then go to the bar to sit. Since you don't participate, then Hu Xin and I have been to the world of two people."

I smiled: "Have you both thought it through? Are you really going to be together? What if the family finds out?"

"There must be a way for the car to reach the mountain." Lin Yadong also smiled, then sat down on my desk with his buttocks up, and said boldly: "Actually! I'm nothing, my father has no temper, he can't hold me back, my mother I can’t control me, and I’m afraid that something will go wrong with Hu Xin in the future. But even if something goes wrong, it will be blocked by soldiers and covered up by water and earth! I’m not afraid!”

I didn't speak anymore, took a few bites of the chicken feet, and picked up the box of lunch that made me lose my appetite.

"I said..." Lin Yadong suddenly lowered his voice and asked in my ear: "Are you really going to do this?"

"What happened?" I was a little absent-minded, imagining in my mind the scene where Hu Xin's parents cried, made trouble, and hanged themselves.

"Since you broke up with Xu Shihao, you haven't been in a relationship again, maybe you haven't had a one-night stand or anything? It's been six or seven years, how can you bear it?

I just glanced at him and smiled silently: "People are different."

"What do you mean? The implication is that if it were me, I would not be able to bear it anymore?" Lin Yadong glared at me.

"Then you try? If you break up with Hu Xin, how long can you stay alone in the empty room?"

Just as Lin Yadong was about to argue, he opened his mouth and smiled compromisingly: "Forget it, I must admit that I am not as good as you in this aspect. It will take three months at most, and then I will have to find a new love."

"Three months? You kid is too unwilling to be lonely, right? Do you think I have to tell Hu Xin about this?"

"Don't, don't, don't!" Lin Yadong quickly smiled and said, "I'm only telling you the truth. If you like it, you like it. If you don't want to let it go, you don't want to let it go. But it is absolutely impossible to break up and still defend yourself like a jade."

"You're wrong. Keeping yourself clean and being as good as jade are two different things. You think I've been alone all this time just to keep my body like jade for Xu Shihao? Are you out of your mind?"

"No?" Lin Yadong looked at me awake like a dream. "I always thought... I thought you were a lover! So it's not!"

I rolled my eyes and threw down the lunch box, and then took out a bag of potato chips from the drawer and opened it.

"Hey, I said Yue Jiao, if Xu Shihao changes his mind one day..." Before he finished speaking, the phone on my desk rang, so he picked it up for me to have a look, and when he saw that it was an unfamiliar number, he handed it to me After finishing speaking: "Will you turn back?"

"I'm a good horse." I answered him while answering the phone: "Hi, hello, who is it?"

"Yue Jiao, it's me, Xu Shihao."

As soon as I heard the voice on the phone, I immediately glared at Lin Yadong, this kid is really a crow mouth!He was taken aback by my stare, and looked at me curiously.

"Ah, what's the matter?" I asked softly, neither far nor near, neither cold nor hot, as if I was facing a very ordinary friend.

"Nothing special. I just want to ask if you have time tonight. I want to treat you to a meal."

"Oh, I have an appointment tonight."

"It's... and... who?"

"My brother, let me invite a group of his classmates to dinner, it will probably be very late."

"Oh! That's it." The other person seemed to be relieved, and then changed into a relaxed tone: "Then tomorrow? Or you can decide the time, and you can do it at your convenience. I basically have time at night, and I am here whenever I am called."

"Ah, what, I've been very busy recently. If you have something to do, please call and talk. If it's about the case, I really can't help you. Just let it be."

"Yue Jiao, do you...don't want to see me?"

"I really can't help you. If I can help, can I neglect you, an old classmate?"

"Old classmate? I... Am I just your old classmate now?"

"Ah."

"Yue Jiao!" Xu Shihao suddenly shouted excitedly: "Can you not do this?"

"What are you calling? Which sentence did I say wrong?" I pointed back rudely.

The other side was silent for a few seconds, and the tone softened again: "An old classmate is an old classmate, after all, he is not a stranger. Then when will you have time to meet me, an old classmate?"

"It's hard to say."

"If you want to avoid me on purpose, just say it straight, there is no need to hide between us."

"Hey, what I said, it seems like I'm still playing hard to get with you. Let me tell you Xu Shihao, I'll never be free to see you, so don't be fooled, just leave it at that, ah!" Don't give him a chance to speak anymore I hung up the phone.

When I called out the three words Xu Shihao, Lin Yadong, who had been eavesdropping, almost dropped his lunch box. He kept staring at me until I put down the phone.

"Have you finished eating? Go out after eating." I glared at him.

Only then did he swallow his saliva and asked in shock and curiosity: "When did you hook up with Xu Shihao again?"

"Who hooked him up? You don't want you to have dinner with him!" I looked at him angrily.

"No, I just think it's too sudden. I just mentioned it, and he called. Can I stop thinking about it? Didn't you say that you haven't contacted me since we broke up? "

"Well, I haven't contacted him yet, I don't know what he is doing."

"Are you... Really don't plan to see him again?"

"Why did you see him? Didn't I fall badly enough? Do you want to fall again, from a broken bone to a paralyzed one?"

"It's not enough to meet...isn't it?"

"As for!" I glared at him again, then stuffed two lunch boxes into his arms and pushed him away: "Go to work! Don't think that you can be lazy just because you are my old classmate!"

"Who is lazy? Isn't it lunch time? It's really... I... I haven't finished my meal..." After Lin Yadong was pushed out of the door by me, he shouted at Hu Xin: "Xiao Hu! It's for you Boss Yue throws away the lunch box!"

Hu Xin smiled and ignored him, and said while eating: "Why did you become my boss Yue? Isn't he also your boss Yue? If you want to throw it away, I haven't finished eating yet."

"Little Hu, wait! See if I don't kill you?" Lin Yadong yelled viciously.

Hu Xin laughed even louder: "Oh, Mr. Lin, if you want to kill me, you know that you broke the law. You can rectify the law on the spot without trial."

"Then I'll cripple you."

"Then who is going to bring you prison meals?"

There were a few lawyers who were eating in the partition outside, and when they heard them singing and drinking, they all laughed along, and began to joke around.

I closed the door, went back to the desk and sat down, looked at the phone, picked it up and deleted the call record just now.

In the afternoon, I wanted to see the progress of the case that other lawyers were following, but Xu Shihao's phone call made me lose my mood, so I took the key and left.On the way, I called Yue Yang and asked him where he planned to eat, he asked me to order, I said yes, and then drove home.

There were a group of children eating at night, and I was an uncle, and I would definitely be out of place in a suit and leather shoes, so I changed into a casual one from the inside out, and then went to the hair salon to have my hair trimmed.It was almost three o'clock when I came out. I was afraid that there would be too many people booking tables at night and I would not get a good seat, so I went straight to my destination.

In order to avoid confusion, I ordered a barbecue buffet, which has everything from Chinese and Western styles, and they can eat whatever they like, as much as they like.I booked a large room for ten people, and after checking that the environment was not bad, I felt relieved to go to school to pick up people.

Just after five o'clock when he arrived at the school, Yue Yang had already brought a large group of classmates waiting at the school gate.In addition to Ling Guo and the two boys in the dormitory next door, there are two other men and two women who are unfamiliar faces. One of the girls is very beautiful, but not gaudy at all. She is a temperamental beauty and should be their new partner. Jin school spent.To be honest, if she can become Yue Yang's girlfriend, I will be very happy, but obviously, Yue Yang's stupid appearance is really not worthy of her.

"Brother, why are you dressed so coquettishly today?" Yue Yang exposed his IQ as soon as he opened his mouth, did he say that about his elder brother and tonight's God of Wealth?

"If you don't like it, I'll go home and sleep." I turned around and walked back.

"Don't, don't!" Yue Yang rushed up to hug me, and quickly flattered me: "Brother, your clothes are so beautiful! Compared to the flowers of our motherland, you are too loud! Didn't I become angry from embarrassment?"

I was laughed at by him, turned around and asked him: "Are these all your classmates?"

"Yes, there are those in our class and those in other classes. Let me introduce you." Then he reported their names one by one and asked them to call me brother.Except for Xu Chunya, I couldn't remember the names of the other strangers after hearing them, including the two boys in the dormitory next door who looked familiar but couldn't remember their names.Facing the green boys and girls in front of me smiling and saying hello, I had no choice but to keep nodding and call them uniformly: "Hello handsome guy, hello beautiful girl."

After the introduction, Yue Yang began to arrange for everyone to board the car. "Well... my brother's car can't fit so many people, so let's divide into two groups. Ling Guo and I take two girls to ride in my brother's car, Wang Yan, you and others take a taxi and follow us."

"Okay!" The man named Wang Yan responded and took the other boys to take a taxi. The movement of reaching out to stop the car was very elegant.He is from the dormitory next door to Yueyang, but he is not in the same class as him. He seems to be majoring in finance. It is said that his family is quite rich, and he looks good-looking, a typical tall, rich and handsome.If Xu Chunya hadn't known in advance that Xu Chunya had agreed to come because of Ling Guo, I really felt that the two of them were right.Although Ling Guo looks better than Wang Yan, he looks a bit sloppy. Even if he is not gay, he is only suitable for standing beside his sister.
