Ruler Book

Perhaps it was because the butter lamps in the hall were lit too much. Unknowingly, Xiao Yun was slightly dazzled by the light in front of his eyes. After recovering, he found that the person was still standing quietly in the corridor, his eyes wide open. Without moving away from him, it seemed that he was still waiting for an answer.

"No, no," he didn't dare to claim credit, and quickly denied, "When I didn't have a show, I often came to the temple to sketch. After I got acquainted, the monks in the temple would prepare some supper for me."

Life is already so difficult, and it is always necessary to absorb some human warmth from the secular world to support him to come to the present alone.

"Oh." Regarding his answer, He Yi still had a flat expression, no sadness or joy could be seen on his face.

Xueluo was silent, and the two stood in the corridor relatively silently, eating a plate of snacks.

Even standing in the ruined temple in the snowy sky, He Yi still did not forget the good family education in his bones, not even a piece of cake scum fell on the ground, which completely matched the image of the aristocratic son that Qi Ruge popularized to them.I don't know if it was because of the short mouth of the cannibal, but after eating, his face not only softened a lot, but he also took the initiative to strike up a conversation with Xiao Yunjian, "You said you often come to the temple to sketch, so you know how to draw?"

"I studied design for a few years before. I studied design in college, and then I switched to the entertainment industry after work." Thinking of his uncertain career, Xiao Yun couldn't help laughing at himself, "If you can't continue in the future, say Maybe I will go back and continue designing.”

"Since you are so pessimistic, why did you change your career? Did you like acting, singing, or simply wanted to be a star?"

The other party asked the question in a flat tone while tapping the railing quietly with his fingers. The two voices mixed together, which made Xiao Yun feel a little distracted, "It just happened to be such an opportunity at that time. The teacher recommended me to the program group I just wanted to give it a try, and if it didn’t work, I would go back to the studio and take it as a gapyear for myself.”

Although the topic of the chat is a bit heavy, the mood of the chat is a bit bleak, and the person you are chatting with should also be treated with ten thousand points of spirit, but for some reason, it is probably because it is the first time I see Xuepiao in spring when I grow up so old In the world, Xiao Yunjian not only unconsciously stretched out his right hand to try to catch the flying snow falling from mid-air, but also regarded the person standing in front of him as a passer-by who met him by chance during the journey.

"Actually, after breaking up with my girlfriend at the time, for a long time, I suddenly felt that life was a bit dull and boring, as if I could see the end at a glance. In short, it was quite boring."

Although he has lived such an orderly life for 24 years, his parents prepared the wedding room as early as when he was in college, hoping that he would get married and have children after graduation, and live a happy and happy family soon Life.

And it's not that he didn't work hard. Even if his first love ended without a problem when he went to the UK after his senior year, he still met the next suitable person, and he willingly handed out a mutual lifelong invitation, but, "She is very good, with a high degree of education. The tutor is good, the work is focused, serious and meticulous, and he is the most professional client I have ever met when I was a designer."

Even though the times have passed, Xiao Yunjian can still list the advantages of his ex-girlfriend for a long time, "He has a strong foundation in painting, and he is even more talented in photography. Personality, although he looks dull and cold, but he is familiar with her." After you get to know her, you will find that she is actually not difficult to get along with."

Recalling the past, a bitter smile appeared on the young man's face, "It's like a well-written mystery novel, full of details and fascinating."

But it is precisely because the person he wants to entrust his life to is a difficult mystery novel, which makes his originally perfect life plan unfortunately die prematurely.

"Mystery novel?" Probably because this metaphor sounds novel, people who have been listening quietly all the time can't help but look sideways, "What's the explanation?"

"It's nothing, it's just an inexplicable sixth sense." Based on the basic rule of not talking about his predecessor's right and wrong, Xiao Yun saw that the choice was limited.

He didn't tell He Yi that his ex-girlfriend was not only versatile, but also very skilled at shuffling and cutting cards. It looked like she had received professional training from a casino, rather than simply being self-taught.

"My intuition reminds me that she may have traveled a long way alone before meeting me."

In a sense, Xiao Yunjian not only gained the courage to introspect the past and start anew from the failed relationship in the past many years, but also has lingering fears from then on, not daring to easily fall in love with those who are like fog and people can't see the bottom. people.

It's just that looking back at many things, it seems more like overkill, and things must be reversed, because even in the years that followed, he acquiesced in a frank and open-minded young man breaking into his secret garden, and he still saw what the other party entrusted. After being sincere, I chose to stay away.

Although he wasn't the one who rushed out at the birthday party, Xiao Yun knew very well that he was the coward who was scared and fled in the emotional game.

Soon, another year would pass, Xiao Yun could not help looking up at the heavy snow falling from the car window at unknown time, and quietly looked at the person sitting opposite him at this time.

Three months of design projects, four months of costume drama appointments, and the person who used to watch the snow with him on the porch in the past, how long can he walk with him on the endless road of life?

He didn't understand, and what's worse, he didn't even have a position to intervene. This made Xiao Yunjian inexplicably feel a sense of frustration in a dilemma, as if no matter which path he chose, he had no chance of winning.

"What are you thinking?" Facing the young man's long silence, He Yi put down his chopsticks, looking worried, "Have you been tired from work recently? You were also distracted when you called last time."

There was no unnecessary reproach in his tone, and there was even more concern in his eyes. Seeing that Xiao Yun had no intention of refuting, he took the steps handed by the other party smoothly, "No, I was just thinking. I've never tasted anything like it before."

"If you want to eat, we can go to Suzhou together next time. The desserts there are very good." He Yi looked over with extremely gentle eyes. Drop by for a drink."

Although Xiao Yun repeatedly denied that he was tired from filming, considering his busy filming schedule, He Yi flatly rejected the proposal to wait for the countdown to zero together, and went back to the hotel after dinner as he did on the birthday phone call. After that, he urged the hero himself to go to bed as soon as possible.

Unlike Xiao Yunjian, who goes to bed early and wakes up early, He Yi suffers from severe insomnia. Xiao Yunjian still remembers the first time he was stayed overnight. He woke up from a dream in the middle of the night and found that there was no one beside his pillow. Get out of bed in a daze and push open the bedroom door, and then saw the other party pacing back and forth in the living room.

Even in loose pajamas, He Yi still maintains the elegance and uprightness of a nobleman, with his back straight, looking more like he is strolling in the garden, and after noticing the prying eyes of his bed partner, he didn't get angry. Apologize to the other party immediately, "I'm sorry, did I disturb you?"

Even though they had known each other for nearly two years, Xiao Yun saw that he knew He Yi no better than outsiders like Qi Ruge.For example, he didn't know that the girl in the story who was also called Mian Mian had left such an unforgettable mark on the other person's life, and he still didn't understand why she had a family background and wealth that ordinary people could not imagine in a few lifetimes. The person lying next to his pillow couldn't even have a good night's sleep.

Therefore, in the early morning of the first day of the new year, when Xiao Yunjian woke up from his sleep and turned his head to see a peaceful sleeping face that he had never seen before, at that moment, he almost thought that he was still dreaming. middle.

"morning..." Feeling the rapid breathing from the pillow, He Yi slowly opened his eyes from his deep sleep, said good morning, and then it was Xiao Yunjian's turn to apologize immediately, "noisy Is it your turn? Sorry."

In the next second, his lips were gently covered by someone's hand, and a helpless sigh came from his ear, "It seems that you still don't take what I said to heart."

With the other hand, He Yi fumbled to pick up the watch on the bedside table, glanced at the pointer, put it down immediately, and then covered his forehead with his backhand, obviously surprised that he could sleep until this point without a dream all night Just woke up, "After my father's funeral, I started to wean off my dependence on sleeping pills, and my personal doctors also felt that this was a good time."

Because work was done late last night, there was no need to start work in the morning. The two people who were not under the pressure of getting up early just lay on the bed, chatting about what they didn't finish last night, "Do you remember that I asked you before, Don't go skiing in Japan?"

"En." Xiao Yunjian nodded silently.

"Actually, I wanted to invite you to Japan for New Year's Eve together," He Yi murmured softly, "It just so happened that my childhood friend ran a hotel in Enoshima, and my sister told me to watch the fireworks on the sea from there." ,very beautiful."

Speaking of this, he suddenly covered his face, and let out a low laugh, "What should I do, now I realize that there are quite a lot of places I want to invite you to go with, but when I think of you, I will only become more and more popular in the future , getting busier and busier, suddenly I feel a little bit regretful.”

It sounds threatening, but in the pleasant laughter of the other party, it sounds more like a complaint between lovers, "By the way, Sean, for the new year, do you have any New Year's wishes?" After laughing, He Yi asked sternly.

"Looking at Changhong, the box office is a big hit," Xiao Yun replied dryly, and added one more sentence uncertainly, "Wish me a new year, more and more rich?"

He Yi didn't scoff at the young man's simple wish, nor did he laugh at the other party, "As an investor, shouldn't I be happy?"

He reached out and stroked Xiao Yunjian's hair that was curled up because of his deep sleep, "Xiao Bingtang will start to make his wish list every year on the first day of December, and keep it until the New Year's day, and then take a long Ask me to pay for the list, I think you can also learn from her."

Little Bingtang's real name is He Tang, and she was He Yi's adopted daughter from an orphanage in his early years. For this reason, he even lost his expensive marriage.And that young girl who is in the blooming season of puberty is a real face control. Although she doesn't like to see Yang Chujun with tough facial features, she has a good relationship with Xiao Yun.

Suddenly, he felt as if he was coaxed by He Yi as if he was a child, and he continued unconvinced, "She is still a child, and I am almost three years old."

"But whether you are a child or an adult, you still have your own New Year's resolutions."

"Even if the content of the wish is childish?"

"Why do you feel childish and have no confidence in yourself? I think the name Nymphaea you chose has a profound meaning."

After a few words of trash talking back and forth, He Yi decided not to make young people happy anymore, "Mianmian once had a good friend from work, who was a genuine elite in the fashion circle."

When mentioning his long-lost first love girlfriend, He Yi’s tone was more relaxed than ever before, as if he just wanted to give a suitable example to explain the importance of making a wish to Xiao Yunjian, “When he was in his early twenties, he made a promise. I made a New Year's resolution, I want to find someone to go away, and now, every time I interview with reporters, I have the same answer."

"It hasn't changed for so many years?" Xiao Yun was a little moved when he heard it.

"No, to be precise, it has changed. In the past, the person he wanted to go away with was the senior mentor who had admired him for many years and led him into the industry. But now, he wants to invite a lovely and beautiful lady to go with him in his lifetime. Retirement in Spain."

Speaking of this, He Yi couldn't help but chuckled and shook his head, "About whether a person's New Year's resolution will change, I made a bet with Mianmian more than ten years ago, and it turned out that I lost .”

And at the moment when he confirmed that he lost the bet, he was staring at a vegetarian dessert in his mansion in Hong Kong in a daze.

Even though his first love girlfriend who had been waiting for many years was close at hand, and he sincerely hoped that he would fulfill his bet as soon as possible, he still didn't give the answer he should have right away. An equally lovely and beautiful young man shared a plate of rose white sugar cake with a similar taste.

"I used to draw a lot of pictures for her. I can't even remember how many pictures there are. Except for the four pictures of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, my sister found a picture of Luoshen in the study of my old residence in Hong Kong. But This time she didn't choose to return it to me, but entrusted her boyfriend to chase it to Taipei and hand it over to Mianmian herself."

"Then what happened afterwards?" Xiao Yunjian asked cautiously. Although the result was obvious, the fact that he still has a place beside Mr. He's pillow today proves that in that story, at least one party did not choose to turn back.

"There is no later, Mianmian and I have been completely over many years ago. I just haven't been willing to admit it, and I felt very unwilling at one time."

He Yi got up and got out of bed, picked a shirt from the closet, and put it on without asking the owner of the shirt, "Probably at that time, I felt that even though I was seriously ill, she chose Stay with another person, why, just because a crying child has candy?"

In the eyes of the outside world, the gentle and graceful son of the family, because of the betrayal of his lover, has since escaped from the world and has been silent. Only at the moment when he brought up the unbearable past, he revealed the sharpness that has been hidden for many years, but it is only a fleeting moment, so fast that Xiao Yun can't help it. I wonder if I have read it wrong.

On the other side, He Yi has already buttoned the last button on his shirt, "Even if it's a painting given to the same person, if you give it to the same person after ten years, it will lose the meaning of when you first wrote it. You are right. Sean, we all have to keep looking forward and never look back."

Don't look back again, just when Xiao Yun saw the huge amount of information revealed in the round of conversation just now, the person who was standing in front of the full-length mirror to tidy up his appearance quietly turned back to the bedside, leaning over the young man's body. A morningkiss as light as a cicada's wing fell from her lips.

"So, think about it carefully. In the new year, what kind of New Year's wish do you want? After you think about it, come to me to fulfill it."

Xiao Yun looked up suddenly, and saw the other party wink at him quietly, "I can wish anything."
