Stand by

Pei Lu raised his eyebrows, too lazy to expose his behavior that he thought he could change the subject.

"I'm going to write an email to Mr. Tang, what do you think?"

Pei Lu wiped the corner of his mouth stained with coconut milk with a tissue: "What did you write?"

"Don't say anything," Jiang Xing sucked on the noodles and said inarticulately, "I don't want to publish that paper for the center, I just want to show it to people who understand."

Pei Lu was startled, he was narrow-minded.

He subconsciously thought that Jiang Xing was going to move Mr. Tang out to support him, but that wasn't Jiang Xing anymore.

Jiang Xing simply wants to send his hard work to someone who "understands" to read. If he understands the profession, he must also understand him. It probably means that women want to please themselves, and the text is for those who know themselves well.

"Okay, let's send it."

Jiang Xing curled up her lips, lowered her head, revealing her white porcelain neck skin, occasionally touched the heel of the other foot with the tip of a thin cotton slipper, and sometimes accidentally touched Pei Lu's toe, Pei Lu Law bumped back again, not knowing who was doing it on purpose and who was doing it unintentionally.

It wasn't too hot this day, so the air conditioner was not turned on. The green fan shook its head gently, blowing the title page of "Deadly Elements". The leaves of two pots of green plants on the windowsill, crabapple and green vine, rustled.

Pei Lu had an illusion that Jiang Xing was also an epiphyllum that bloomed at night, the branches and leaves were ready to move, but the buds had not yet bloomed.

But soon it will be in full bloom, and soon, he will grow wildly and resplendently, but not just for a moment, stubborn and tenacious like Jiang Xing, Pei Lu wants to be his soil, his nutrients, his air, his sunshine And water, do everything to keep his innocence, brilliance, warmth and timelessness.

Jiang Xing was a little embarrassed by the deep and complicated eyes, and ate with his cheeks puffed up, pretending to be busy, and took another big mouthful of jasmine coconut.

He raised his eyes under the pressure, the desk lamp was warm yellow, making Pei Luya's black eyebrows look like a deep pool of stars.

Jiang Xing lost his mind for a moment, "Summer Night Wind" was finished, and the next song was "cantwithoutyou".

He was about to move, clenched his chopsticks, and his throat rolled: "Pei Lu."

"Ok?"

"This song was written by Curtis." A young Australian male poet and singer, Jiang Xing asked, "Do you think it sounds good?"

The author is also the lead singer. The singing voice of a very young boy is mixed with a little hoarseness, singing the summer night dimly and ambiguously.

"It's very sweet." Liang Fan urged him so frequently that Pei Lu had to look at his phone.

Jiang Xingshen said by mistake: "His boyfriend in the cycling club confessed to him, and then they wrote this song when they came back from cycling on the Huanhai Highway."

Pei Lu paused, put away his phone, looked at him, and asked very gently, "Really?"

Jiang Xing's scalp was numb from his staring eyes. He teased himself first, but then he was cowardly again. He wiped his mouth, stood up and said, "Are you leaving? I'll take you down."

However, Pei Lu didn't let him go. Jiang Xing always thought about sending him away, which made him feel a little uncomfortable. He leaned back slightly, leaning on the back of the chair, with a little doubt and inquiry in his eyes: "I made food for you. drive me away?"

"?"

"Jiang wakes up."

Pei Lu narrowed his eyes: "Crossing the river and tearing down the bridge, you are No.1."

Jiang Xing let out a dry "ah", but didn't know what to do to remedy it.

Pei Lu looked at his unnatural expression, lowered his eyes and thought for a few seconds, stopped teasing him, stood up, and put his coat on his arm.

Jiang Xingpidianpidian followed behind, "I'll see you off."

"No need," Pei Lu looked out the window, it was pitch black, "just in case someone comes out."

They are still "broken strangers".

"Oh."

Pei Lu opened the door, first observed whether there were acquaintances outside the corridor, and then felt that it was ridiculous to be reduced to this state.

"Go to bed early, and call me if you can't sleep."

Jiang Xing's mouth moved, and he muttered silently: "I'm calling you, can you hear me?"

Pei Lu seemed to have eyes behind his back: "I can hear you."

"……Oh."

Pei Lu left, Jiang Xing leaned against the door, poked his head out, and called weakly, "Pei Lu."

"Ok?"

"I have something to tell you when the matter is over." He wasn't sure how long he could endure such a tormenting way of getting along with each other. Jiang Xing had never been a person who could hold back his thoughts.

Pei Lu's eyes flashed the look of inquiry and thought just now, and Jiang Xing immediately said, "Yeah, it's not really important."

Pei Lu said seriously: "No, your affairs are all important."

"Ah..." Jiang Xing's face burned, but thinking about Pei Lu's situation, he thought he was very smart to inoculate the other party: "If we have different ideas, don't be angry, harmony, harmony but difference Well."

After all, Pei Lu's thinking is relatively conservative. If he knows that a trusted friend is eyeing him with impure thoughts and taking advantage of him, will he be furious?

No, no, Pei Lu is a gentleman, a gentleman, even if he gets angry, he will not embarrass others, but alienation is inevitable.

Seeing the heavy worry in Jiang Xing's eyes, Pei Lu sighed helplessly: "Aren't there too few times when we disagree? When have I ever been angry with you?"

Even when Jiang Xing refuted him fiercely and wanted to dismantle his hypothetical experiment, he could only obediently help.

Jiang Xing curled his lips, thinking that you don't understand, this time is different, it's about a violent collision of life attitude and emotional concept, if the relationship is not done properly, the relationship will be broken.

"Oh, I'm recording." He tremblingly showed a hand from behind and shook the phone. If Pei Lu doesn't accept him then he has to be friends with him, "Don't regret it then."

"..."

Ambiguity, attachment, and all kinds of warm and unknown feelings are like dew on a summer night, and they disappear as soon as the sun rises. During the day, they become rivals, rivals, and strangers who broke up their relationship. If you don't look sideways, the air pressure in the same space will drop suddenly, and everyone in the laboratory will automatically stay three feet away from the two big and small icebergs.

Liang Fan observed all this silently with a smile in his eyes. When Fang Xu reported the progress of the cooperation project, Pei Lu's phone rang twice briefly. Ye Yi just brought the coffee over, moved his phone, and the interface message flashed Turning off again, Ye Yi frowned subtly, and when he was in a daze, he met Pei Lu's scrutinizing gaze and shivered.

The other party didn't say anything, and continued to discuss the plan in a business-like manner. Only he was sensitive to the sharpness and warning in those eyes.

Ye Yi suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and he didn't dare to directly ask Pei Lu who was the person in the notes who had no name and only a kitten's head. Such a boring fun.

Pei Lu put away her mobile phone and stood up: "Just follow this plan, and I'll talk to the other side of the board."

Liang Fan relaxed, putting his hands on his shoulders: "That's nothing, He Dongming has reserved a place tonight, let's go there together, Meng Yin and Lu Yue are all here, they all want to see you a lot—"

"No, I have something to do tonight, next time."

"Hey--"

Ye Yi saw him walking out the door while talking on the phone, and vaguely heard something like "Remember... have dinner...", but he didn't seem to hear anything clearly.

That bad premonition rose again.

Pei Lu didn't lie to Liang Fan, he did have something to do today, an important dinner.
