Ruler Book

The moment the light rail passed through a building, Xiao Yunjian couldn't help asking. "So you were in a bad mood during that time, was it because of Mianmian?"

"Mianmian and I are just pawns in the fight between the elders, but in the end, she took the initiative to lead me out of that chess game," the two sat side by side in the empty carriage, talking about the family secrets that had been dusty for many years. Xin, He Yi no longer kept secrets, but talked about those bloody past events in a relaxed tone, "I was restricted in part of my personal freedom after the breakup, until two years ago, someone publicly confessed to Mian Mian, after confirming that we After the two of them would no longer get back together, the family completely released the restriction on me."

Then, on the plateau of Shangri-La, I met another person unexpectedly.

"So at the beginning you were in a bad mood, and it happened that I rejected you again..."

"To be precise, it's about venting anger," He Yi shook his head slightly, probably also secretly laughing at himself, who is still as impulsive and naive as a teenager in some things, "I met Mianmian for the first time when I was 16 years old. It was because it was raining that day, I ran downstairs to her apartment to hide from the rain, and was rescued by her, she also invited me to eat a piece of crabapple cake, how about it, do you think the scene I described is very familiar?"

The scene of deja vu, like the first meeting back in time, "When you rejected me, you knew that you couldn't be like her. You were a chess piece carefully arranged by the family, but I still couldn't help but anger you. Sean, I'm sorry."

After a year, Xiao Yunjian finally waited for He Yi's face-to-face apology. Although he felt that according to their identities and relationship, the other party didn't really need to repeat the past, but when all this really happened, his heart was still full of regret. The happiness of being respected gushes out, and even the footsteps become brisk.

A painting of water and mountains, the city is full of stars, and after eating pean noodles and taking the light rail, Xiao Yun saw that the last Internet celebrity spot that he took He Yi to check in was the night view of the Jialing River, but they did not go to the crowded pier, but It came to an inaccessible tributary connected to the lake.

"It was here that we saw a lot of lotus flowers that hadn't withered yet."

The bank of the river remains the same, and the old man is far away.

"Are you still waiting for Nymphaea to come back?" He Yi asked in a deep voice, Xiao Yunjian shook his head calmly, "No, there is no need, I know she must be doing well now..."

"So you're in the act too, Sean?"

Although He Yi's words in the context were a continuation of the previous question, Xiao Yun knew it was not the case.

In the past year, he has filmed many films, but the only one that really needs to be produced and maintains a weak connection with the actors who acted in the opposite film after the filming is completed is only that one.

The wind in the river was harsh, and the blood on his lips disappeared. At that moment, his mind went blank. When he came back to his senses, he found that it was too late. His attitude just now explained everything virtually, "I'm sorry, I can explain. ..."

Xiao Yun saw that he didn't wait for the expected interrogation, and He Yi, who had a full view of the young man's bewilderment, just continued to complete his question, "What I mean is, if you haven't been able to make a play until now, how about you?" If you can't find someone to go with and relax with, maybe you can consider letting me accompany you."

After finishing speaking, he took a step forward and straightened the young man's raised hair on his forehead. Seeing the frightened eyes under the hat, he couldn't help but sincerely reflect on what he had left in the other party's heart. The image of the devil.

Although, he seems to have no intention of fulfilling his lover.

"So, the future big star, can you set aside a little time in the new year, first accompany me to Enoshima to set off fireworks, then go to Suzhou for snacks, and then at the end of the year, we can go skiing in Finland and watch the aurora together ?”

"Mr. He," looking at the other party's carefully arranged travel plan, Xiao Yun tried to suppress the daze and trance in his heart, his eyes were full of vigilance, "I don't understand what you mean."

From the beginning to the end, they were not friends, they just took what they needed. Although Xiao Yun had to admit that what the other party gave was far more than what he gave, he still accepts it with peace of mind. But it is based on the relative freedom and companionship agreed from the beginning.So even if he is afraid of potential retaliation, he does not think that being tempted by others is a kind of betrayal and violation.

But on the first day of the new year, or as early as when he received the early morning birthday celebration call, his partner, He Yi, who is the superior, seemed to be breaking the fragile balance between them with his own hands.

"It seems that on New Year's Eve, I really shouldn't come to the mountains to visit the class empty-handed. At least I should bring a box of fireworks to set off. Maybe it can express my sincerity more straightforwardly."

He Yi, who felt that he was no longer young, sighed from the bottom of his heart, as if he was worried that a certain skill had been unfamiliar for too long, so that it was no longer handy to implement it, and he could not achieve his expected goal, "I'm sorry for not being clear and direct. As for not letting you find out in time, I am pursuing you, Sean."

I'm after you, Sean.Hearing this sentence, the young man temporarily lost all possible reactions on his face, and just repeated the same word, "Why?"

"It's a bit tiring for a person to stay with an ambiguous relationship for too long. Although I hate the person who said this, I have to admit that sometimes he still makes sense."

Winter goes to spring, and then comes the brightest summer of the year.

Xu Shanhe waited for a long time in the basement of a high-end residential area in Beijing, bored in the middle, and watched a national variety show that was broadcast live that night. Not long after the show ended, she finally waited for one of the guests who appeared on TV tonight.

"Sorry, I'm late," Xiao Yun saw striding over, opened the car door and sat in directly, and took a document handed over by the other party.

"It's all right, I just watched tonight's live broadcast of the variety show, and this episode with you is pretty good." The female lawyer smiled like a flower, "This is the final version of the document, including all the contracts that can be subdivided on you." , it’s a bit long, you can take it back and take a closer look, and call me if you don’t understand.”

Before she finished speaking, she saw the other party take out a signature pen and sign her name on each contract in a smooth and neat manner.

"This, well, good," the barrister, who was defending fiercely in court, was speechless at the moment, only a few words of friendship attached, "Then when do you want to announce the news of your establishment of a personal studio? Your new The show will be over in half a month, so it might be too late to announce the finale? But it’s still two months away from your birthday, so it seems too late.”

"Wait until September, the third anniversary of my debut," Xiao Yunjian returned the documents to the other party, "I will trouble you for the rest, Lawyer Xu."

At this point, the dust settled, and at the moment when he took over the documents, compared to Xiao Yunjian, who had worked so hard for two years and finally escaped from the clutches of the company, Xu Shanhe, who was an outsider bystander, even felt a little more unreal than him.

The so-called predecessors planted trees and future generations took advantage of the shade. The same predicaments that He Yi and Jiang Mian encountered in the past will not be repeated again. However, will everything be fine without the intervention of the outside world? this...

"By the way, I haven't had time to wish Lawyer Xu a happy wedding."

Seeing that Xiao Yun didn't read the complicated mood in the female lawyer's heart at the moment, he just smiled and pointed narrowly at the newly added platinum ring on the other party's left ring finger, although it was not as shiny as the previous dove egg ring. Blind, but undoubtedly a more reassuring existence.

Xu Shanhe, who was absent-minded for a short time, smiled when she heard the other party's words, and happily accepted the handsome man's blessing, but when the other party opened the car door and got off the car, she hesitated for a moment, and still expressed the worry in her heart.

"Sean, no matter what reason you agreed to Mr. He," she clenched the steering wheel in her hands, and was at a loss for words for a while, "I still hope that you will not let him down for you."

The world is wasted, no one can bear to watch their friends, and spend another ten years to walk out of the next abyss that cannot be fulfilled.So does she.

"You may have misunderstood. Mr. He and I didn't make any special agreement." Seeing the heroic expression of the female lawyer Tuo Gu, Xiao Yun spread his hands helplessly, "He just told me that he broke up with Mian Mian before. I gave half of the other party’s net worth when I was married, and the loss was heavy, so I hope I can work hard in the future and help him earn back all the breakup fees he paid as soon as possible.”

"Is it just like that?" Xu Shanhe whispered in disbelief, seeing her unbelievable appearance, Xiao Yun couldn't help thinking of his previous reaction.

It seemed that when he heard this sentence, at that moment, he also wondered if he had heard something wrong.

Compared to making a wish and then waiting for others to help fulfill it, Xiao Yunjian prefers the exchange of fate with a clearly marked price.

So three months ago, when he finished a new round of fruitless contract termination negotiations, as a decent farewell to himself, he first went back to the studio in Nanjiao Town, and asked someone who had met him in Weishi and was also interested in skateboarding. The kid with a soft spot drank a glass of his favorite ice-shake cranberry blackcurrant.

Then he returned to the hotel. Although he was so anxious that he didn't want to wait any longer, he still made a call to Paris after carefully calculating the time difference.

"So, this is your New Year's resolution? It's much simpler than I expected," He Yi's cheerful laughter sounded from the other end of the phone, "Have you really thought it through?"

"No one can stay with an ambiguous relationship for too long," Xiao Yunjian stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the room, looking at the starless night sky through the glass, "your friend is right."

"He's not my friend," He Yi strictly corrected his words, "and even he himself hasn't done it yet."

His answer obviously exceeded Xiao Yunjian's expectations, "Why?"

"Because," although he didn't continue, Xiao Yunjian understood what the other party wanted to tell him from that low sigh.

Even if they know that everything in front of them is an illusion, they don't want to break the beauty in their hearts with their own hands. Even if they just get along with each other vaguely, there will always be people who get satisfaction from it.

Others may be able to indulge in such an ambiguous relationship happily, but Xiao Yun can't see it.He would never allow himself to become so humble in any relationship.

Even sometimes, he has to admit that he is just a tamed fox, but that does not prevent him from choosing to let go at the end of the story, to help the little prince to pursue his beloved rose.

Before taking the elevator downstairs to meet He Yi's personal lawyer, he had already personally sent his farewell to the host who organized tonight's party. Once he turned around, he would never consider turning back.

However, maybe in the future, when the skiing season comes every year, he will occasionally indulge himself and quietly think, when his little prince takes out the birthday gift that has been woven for a long time from the closet, will there be such a moment? I feel that the stars embroidered on the scarf are also blooming flowers in the night sky.

Or the unique rose on this planet loved by the little prince.

After watching Xu Shanhe's car drive away from the basement, Xiao Yun also left immediately. The new home he just moved after the Chinese New Year is very close to here, and it only takes 5 minutes to walk.

Although it is already the end of July, the moonlight tonight is still bright enough to illuminate all the dark corners in one's heart.

"I'm curious, Sean, what do you do when you really fall in love with someone but can't be with him?" In the last phone call, He Yi finally asked him, "Although, I seem to have already I saw your answer."

At that moment, leaving behind the entanglement of interests and love, that person seemed really just curious about an answer.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yunjian stopped walking, turned around and looked back at the moon hanging in the sky, and recalled how he answered the other party at that time.

"I will return him to his beloved."

Go back, whether it's in the book or outside the show, whether it's in the past or some distant future.
