bamboo horse long time no see

Xu Chetong heard Wei Nan's words clearly, but he couldn't understand for a moment.

"What do you mean?" he asked.

Wei Nan raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Didn't you understand? Xu Chetong, I came back to chase you, because I found out that I like you. I came here as a supervisor because of you, because I want to see you every day."

He was very happy when he said that, probably because Xu Chetong finally let Xu Chetong know what he wanted.

Just as Xu Chetong was in a daze, Wei Nan was already standing in front of him while speaking, with his hands on the window sill, as if holding Xu Chetong in his arms.

Wei Nan said: "I like you, Tongtong."

His eyes were radiant and extremely shiny.

Suddenly calling out his "nickname" that only Wei Nan would call him when he was a child, Xu Chetong's face flushed suddenly, but soon turned pale again.

Xu Chetong turned cold, stretched out his hand and gently pushed Wei Nan's shoulder, "Don't be kidding!"

Wei Nan stood aside and looked at him puzzled, "But I'm not joking."

Xu Chetong glanced at Wei Nan, his eyes were distant, and his tone sounded indifferent, "Really? This reason... do your parents agree?"

"Huh?" Wei Nan wondered, "What does it have to do with my parents? It's my decision to come back."

Hearing this, Xu Chetong frowned even deeper, "That's why you are always like this..."

Wei Nan leaned forward, "Why are you angry?"

Xu Chetong turned his body and walked to the other side, turned to Wei Nan and said, "I'm not angry, I just didn't expect that the reason for your return is... I welcome you back, other things...just pretend I didn't ask."

Wei Nan looked puzzled.

Xu Chetong gritted his teeth and said, "Also, don't call me this 'nick name' anymore!"

After speaking, Xu Chetong strode out of the lounge, leaving Wei Nan alone.

Wei Nan's expression was stiff and dazed, very at a loss.

He just... made Xu Chetong unhappy?Xu Chetong rejected him? !

Although he somewhat felt that Xu Chetong's attitude towards him was not as enthusiastic as before, but the response just now was still beyond his expectation.

Did Xu Chetong hate him? !

Wei Nan didn't feel angry at all after being rejected, but a little depressed and sad.

Among the thousands of possibilities, Wei Nan didn't expect the situation just now. He looked down at his hand. The palm of his hand was a red mark left by him holding on to the window sill just now, and it was starting to become scorching hot now.

He clenched his hands tightly, thinking that perhaps he had spoken too hastily just now, as soon as Xu Chetong asked, he said everything along the way.

If you change the form of expression, it can be regarded as courtship!

Wei Nan reflected deeply on himself, he might have taken it for granted, that's why Xu Chetong thought it was a joke.

But he is not, he likes Xu Chetong, there is no doubt about it, why would he make fun of his feelings for Xu Chetong?

He admits that his previous self may not have paid much attention to this aspect of his feelings, and he gradually differentiated what friendship is and what love is after belatedly.

His friendship is a circle in which many people can stand.

But his love is a figure, it used to be a blurry mass, until later it was discovered that this black figure with clear outline was Xu Chetong.

No one can stand in this "outline", and it is impossible for anyone to stand in.It can only be Xu Chetong, not someone else.

Wei Nan has full confidence in this. He believes in himself and loves Xu Chetong the only person in his life.

But Xu Chetong didn't seem to feel it at all, probably because he behaved improperly.

Wei Nan was a little lucky, fortunately Xu Chetong didn't regard him as a boss who would "office sexual harassment" and might beat him up.

After a brief reflection in the lounge, Wei Nan walked back.He saw that Xu Chetong was already sitting at his assistant's desk, contemplating a certain document on the computer, as if he hadn't noticed him approaching at all.

Wei Nan thought that at this time, rather than how to make Xu Chetong take care of herself, it would be better to think of an opportunity to apologize to him first.

The self just now didn't mean "harassment" at all, he was just telling the truth.

But thinking of this, Wei Nan felt sad. He sighed softly, went back to the office, and closed the door.

It was the sound of knocking on the door that brought Xu Chetong who was closest to him back to his senses.

Xu Chetong didn't look at the files on the computer at all just now, he was thinking about something.

Thoughts drifted far away, to more than ten years ago.

Floating to a certain day during the summer vacation of their second year of high school, they returned to school to participate in the mobilization meeting before the third year of high school.

They came home from school at noon, and their white shirts were scorched by the scorching sun.

Wei Nan walked in front of him with a radiant face, talking about their present and future.

Xu Chetong followed behind him, listening to him with a smile on his face, and also hearing the throbbing in his heart.

But this matter has been in the seven years since Wei Nan went abroad, and he has never thought of it once.

If Wei Nan had said these words to him back then, Xu Chetong felt that he might have nodded on the spot, and he didn't even need to think of other reasons to convince himself.

But today, seven years have passed, even if it reminds him of those times, he will never have any nightmarish thoughts.

Too many things happened in the middle, and now he just wants to work peacefully and make money.

It's just...Xu Chetong thought in a mess, his attitude towards Wei Nan just now seemed a bit bad?

In fact, I was really happy to see Wei Nan returning to China.

Xu Chetong was a little bit on pins and needles, thinking that the person at the door was still his boss after all, why wouldn't he not even be a friend in the end?

He saw the document on the table that needed Wei Nan's signature, picked it up and walked to the door of the office, took a deep breath, and knocked on the door.

Ten minutes ago, the man in front of him was "rejected" and "denied" by him, and now he is sitting calmly behind his desk and dealing with his work.

Xu Chetong handed over the document, and Wei Nan took it over without changing his expression, as if nothing happened just now.

After signing, Xu Chetong reached out to get the document, but Wei Nan grabbed his wrist.

Xu Chetong was startled, he glanced at Wei Nan, and asked, "Why?"

Wei Nan let go and said, "Don't go yet, I want to apologize to you."

Xu Chetong was taken aback for a moment, but forgot to withdraw his hand.

"I'm sorry." Wei Nan looked into Xu Chetong's eyes, "My words just now seem to have troubled you. You seem unhappy, I'm sorry."

Xu Chetong shook his head, "No, it's not that he's unhappy."

Wei Nan said, "But what I'm telling is the truth."

"Hmm..." Xu Chetong just nodded.

Xu Chetong never thought that Wei Nan would apologize to him, he always felt that what Wei Nan said was something he took for granted.

He came back as a matter of course, and he also explained the reason as a matter of course-not to mention that the question was still asked by himself.

But he apologized.

Xu Chetong felt a warmth swelling in his heart.

Wei Nan continued his efforts, "If you don't want to mention this matter now, I won't mention it, so as not to disturb you."

Xu Chetong pursed his lips, feeling even more surprised.

"Actually..." Xu Chetong said, "Just now I said you are welcome back, and it is true."

Wei Nan smiled slowly and said, "Then to express my apology, how about I invite you out for dinner on Sunday?"

Xu Chetong looked at him and frowned.

His behavior made Wei Nan think that the date was interesting, so he picked up the phone and said, "Sunday at noon, shall I drive to pick you up?"

Unexpectedly, Xu Chetong reached out to stop Wei Nan, "Don't... I do have something to do on Sunday."

"Huh?" Wei Nan tilted his head and looked at him strangely, "Uncle and aunt are back? Why didn't I hear my parents say..."

Xu Chetong's expression became a little weird for a second, but it was fleeting.His attitude also cooled down, and he said, "No, it's a private matter."

"Okay, you have a private matter without telling me!" Wei Nan said with a smile, "Really no time?"

"It's really not this week." Xu Chetong said firmly, "Otherwise I don't work overtime on Saturday, and I might have this time."

"That's no problem, let the people in the department work overtime, and let's go on a date." Wei Nan's tone was so natural.

Xu Chetong thought to himself, yes, this is Wei Nan, with such a virtue.

But Xu Chetong also said: "No, I can't be a traitor in the department. If you want to work overtime, everyone must work overtime together, and you can't slip."

Wei Nan yelled "Hey" a few times, and said aggrievedly, "I'm the supervisor."

"You have to lead by example." Xu Chetong packed up the documents and said with a smile, "This time it really won't work. I promise others, next time."

"Oh..." Wei Nan didn't ask who it was, "Okay, I owe you, you owe me twice."

Xu Chetong was stunned, "Why only twice?"

Wei Nan said that last time the Japanese grocery store also said to go again?With this time, it is two times.

Xu Chetong thought about it, and quickly said, "I'm applying for merger twice."

Wei Nan said, "Reject."

Xu Chetong said: "Director Wei..."

Wei Nan raised her eyebrows, "It sounds good, let's call again."

"I don't agree to pull it down!" Xu Chetong turned and walked out with the document in hand.

But there was a faint smile on his face, and he thought, it seems that they are still friends.

Wei Nan noticed his expression at the same time and thought to himself, fortunately Tongtong is not angry.
