Zheng Lan threw the pencil in her hand into the pen holder, with the cap facing down, and knocked against the wooden bottom, making a gradually diminishing sound.

After receiving patients all afternoon, Zheng Lan was a little tired, but she just rubbed her forehead with one hand.While adjusting the cuffs of his shirt, he answered the phone.

On the other end of the phone is Zheng Lan's old friend Bai Hao, who used to be his college classmate.This person is a rich second generation. When he was studying abroad, he often liked to play with Zheng Lan. After returning to China, he still kept in touch with him. He was Zheng Lan's best friends.

"Is Dr. Zheng off work? My car is downstairs." Bai Hao said lazily, surrounded by noises from the road, very chaotic.

"Get off work, come down immediately." Zheng Lan opened the door and left the office.

The nurse at the front desk of the consultation room was a very young girl. Seeing Zheng Lan leave, she smiled and asked, "Dr. Zheng left work so early today?"

"Yes, I have an appointment with a friend tonight." After Zheng Lan finished speaking, she answered the phone rather helplessly.

Bai Hao drove a very low-key car, and Zheng Lan could see him pressing his bent arms against the car window from a distance.

The horn sounded, and Bai Hao turned his head to look at Zheng Lan, pushed up his sunglasses, and urged him: "Get in the car, if there is another traffic jam, we will be late, maybe we will be forced to do so."

"You've already been driving, and you're still afraid of being drunk?" Zheng Lan smiled and got into the co-pilot.

"I'm not afraid, I'm afraid you will be forced." Bai Hao said, and the car ignited.

"What am I afraid of?" Zheng Lan opened the window, looked at the golden sycamore tree with fallen leaves by the roadside, and lowered her voice, "I can drink."

The restaurant was a little far away from the consultation room, and it happened to be the rush hour for commuting. The two of them were blocked near the bridge, and they only moved for a few minutes.

Seeing that he was about to enter the bridge, Bai Hao clicked the accelerator, and the car suddenly turned off.

Bai Hao turned his head and exchanged glances with Zheng Lan.

"A few days ago, I took my car for maintenance. I just picked up an old car at home..." Bai Hao explained, turned on a few lights, put the car aside, took off the seat belt and went down to have a look.

Zheng Lan also got out of the car, and Bai Hao drove the front cover to check. Seeing him coming, he said, "Call someone to deal with it. Let's go there first."

"Okay." Zheng Lan agreed.

The phone call was fast, Zheng Lan looked at the situation of the taxi on the road, and felt that the two of them would probably be fed tonight.

After waiting on the side of the road for a while, Bai Hao went around to the driver's seat, bent down and went in to find something.

After a while, he came out shaking a pack of cigarettes, and asked Zheng Lan, "Do you smoke?"

Zheng Lan shook her head and refused.

"It's better not to smoke." Bai Hao lit one for himself, exhaled a puff of smoke, and murmured: "It's better not to smoke."

"Think of something else," Zheng Lan said, "You can't just wait."

He stood a little closer to the side of the road, as if he wanted to turn around and say something to Bai Hao, when suddenly a silver-gray Ben Yuet approached, with the windows lowered.

Zheng Lan looked over there, and the eyebrows, eyes, nose and mouth of the person in the cab were revealed one by one, forming a familiar appearance to Zheng Lan.

For a long time, this face always appeared in Zheng Lan's mind, and the frequency was so high that he was almost bored.

But suddenly seeing him again in reality, Zheng Lan couldn't tell what emotion he was feeling.

He just stood there unable to move.

Bai Hao glanced at Zheng Lan quickly, walked up past him, and said hello to the man: "Brother Pei, why did I just meet you?"

"It's just right," Pei Yan smiled, and asked again, "What are you doing standing by the roadside?"

"The car broke down," Bai Hao pointed, "I was supposed to have dinner with my friends tonight."

"Yeah." Pei Yan still smiled faintly, and her thin lips parted again. Zheng Lan saw him tilt his head, facing her, and asked, "Are you coming up? I'll see you off."

Bai Hao didn't dare to make up his mind, so he frequently glanced at Zheng Lan.

Zheng Lan only raised her eyes at this moment, and exchanged a glance with Pei Yan at a distance that wasn't too close, walked forward and opened the door of the back seat.

Bai Hao followed immediately, while Pei Yan clenched his hands on the steering wheel, and his expression froze.

After getting into the car, Bai Hao remembered that half of the cigarette in his hand was still extinguished, so he leaned forward and asked Pei Yan, "Brother Pei, give me the ashtray."

He said that because he knew there would be some in Pei Yan's car.

But it's long gone.

Pei Yan looked straight ahead, and told him in a flat tone: "No more, I'll stop smoking a long time ago."

"Ah," Bai Hao was a little embarrassed for a while, "You quit?"

"Quit." After getting off the bridge and driving for a while, Pei Yan stopped the car on the side of the road, looked out, and said to Bai Hao: "Trash can, go."

Bai Hao didn't react for a while, and finally looked at Zheng Lan in embarrassment.

"Go." Zheng Lan said, and Bai Hao pushed the door and got out of the car.

The car was quiet for a while, Zheng Lan watched Bai Hao run away, and heard the person in the front seat ask him: "Can you stand this kid smoking?"

Zheng Lan simply responded, "En."

Pei Yan smiled helplessly, and said, "There are still so few words."

Zheng Lan raised her head, and saw Pei Yan's profiled face from the rearview mirror inside the car.

He hasn't changed much, the contours of his facial features are still sharp and angular, only his eyebrows and eyes are darker.

"Why are you looking at me?" Pei Yan obviously didn't look over, but suddenly asked.

Zheng Lan lowered her head and defended weakly: "No..."

"Well," Pei Yan didn't know whether to believe it or not, and said something else, "Are you still in the hospital now?"

"Yes." Zheng Lan said.

"The body is more important." Pei Yan echoed, but didn't say anything meaningful.

Zheng Lan was thinking about whether he should greet him appropriately when Bai Hao came running back.

Pei Yan was still looking outside with his head tilted, and Zheng Lan lowered his head again. He took it for granted that the atmosphere was getting more rigid, and thought of where he was going before he said to Pei Yan: "Brother Pei, let's go to Linjiang That new restaurant."

Pei Yan said a name, and Bai Hao replied yes, then heard Pei Yan say: "Coincidentally, I'll go there too."

"You didn't go to the college reunion, did you?" Bai Hao asked in surprise.

"Yes, Tang Du asked me last night, and I just came today when I'm free." Pei Yan turned the steering wheel and glanced at Zheng Lan casually.

Bai Hao thought about it, and felt that it was reasonable to meet them, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Back then, Bai Hao and Zheng Lan were classmates in the same class, and Pei Yan and the Tang Du he mentioned were a class older than them.Because it is studying abroad, Chinese students are always very close, and there are often parties, and we know more or less people in the school.

After tossing for a while on the road, when the three of them arrived at the restaurant, they were already late.

Almost all of the people sitting by the door were seniors, and when they saw Pei Yan who was in the lead, they took him away, and you chatted with me sentence by sentence.

Pei Yan didn't care about the two people behind him, and sat down by herself, dealing with the wine glasses they handed over.Someone thought they didn't know each other, so they stopped Zheng Lan and introduced him, "This is Pei Yan, one level older than you."

Bai Hao covered his face behind Zheng Lan, thinking that this was some embarrassing thing, but Zheng Lan looked at Pei Yan naturally, and said, "Hello, senior."

Pei Yan probably didn't expect Zheng Lan to say that, so she frowned slightly and ignored him.

Seeing that the atmosphere was about to become tense again, Bai Hao hurriedly took a step forward, followed Zheng Lan's words, and finally took Zheng Lan away.

The two sat in the corner, and Bai Hao said a few words to Zheng Lan: "What are you doing? How long has it been since this is still awkward?"

"It's okay." Zheng Lan ignored him.

"Your reaction today, no one who knows about you and Pei Yan will believe what you say." As soon as Bai Hao finished speaking, Zheng Lan fell silent, as if seriously thinking about whether it was right or not. .

Bai Hao felt that he had said something wrong, so he guiltyly mentioned something else, but Zheng Lan didn't answer a word.

Bai Hao thought that Zheng Lan was angry, and was about to coax him, when he heard him mentioning, "It's been two years."

Oh.

Tell me how long it's been.

It's quite quiet on their side, but across the table, Pei Yan's place is bustling.

A group of people are all capable of making a fuss, so they just use Pei Yan's late arrival as a joke.

Pei Yan didn't explain, just smiled and drank with them.

Tang Du, who was sitting next to him, stopped him halfway. Pei Yan lowered his head and tapped his finger on the rim of the cup.

Tang Du glanced at him and ignored him.

Halfway through the drink, everyone finally started eating.Those who sat close to Pei Yan had a good relationship with him. Tang Du went out to answer the phone, came in and said he was leaving, Pei Yan asked him what was the matter, he smiled, and Pei Yan waved him away .

The people around him leaned over and asked, "I heard that Tang Du's side has changed?"

"Well," Pei Yan answered him indifferently, "he just went back to accompany him."

The friend smiled, glanced at the person on the opposite corner, and said, "Zheng Lan is handsome."

"Really?" Because he was talking about him, Pei Yan slowly raised his eyes and looked over there.Zheng Lan was wearing a thin white shirt, eating food quietly with her eyes downcast.

It's pretty.

He is white and thin, his shirt cuffs are opened and rolled up for the convenience of eating, the forearm underneath is like a lotus root, his eyelids are as thin as a cicada's wings, fluttering under the lamp, occasionally looks like a butterfly.

Didn't he, Pei Yan, just look at the good-looking people?

But where is he handsome?He looked about the same as before.

The friend thought of how the two of them behaved when they first came in, and asked, "How do I remember that they belong to you?"

Pei Yan gently shook the wine glass in his hand, and said in a casual tone: "It used to be."

"Oh," the friend laughed at him after listening, "I don't want it anymore? Can I chase now?"

It's actually a joke, you can hear it.

Pei Yan gave him a cold look, "Get out, I want more, I can't."

"It's worth it." The friend stopped messing with him, but he didn't think he was serious. "I was surprised when you two broke up. I thought you were just fighting for a while. Didn't you make a lot of trouble back then?" ? How long has it been since we broke up..."

Pei Yan stopped talking.

After dinner, it was already late.There were quite a few people who drank too much, Bai Hao's car was abandoned on the road, he had no excuses, and was poured a lot, only Zheng Lan didn't drink a sip.

Everyone discussed how to go home, Pei Yan held the car keys in his hand, and stood by the corridor talking to a few friends.

Zheng Lan and Bai Hao walked by, Pei Yan called him: "Zheng Lan."

The figure paused, pretending not to hear, but not turning back.

"Zheng Lan."

This time many people came to see it.

"Take my car," Pei Yan came over, the key and the keychain collided, "I'll take you home."

Zheng Lan had no choice but to turn around, and the words of refusal reached her throat, but she saw Pei Yan smiled, put her arms around his shoulders, and said to the people next to him: "The juniors I knew before, I haven't seen them for a long time, so I'm born."

The place that was pressed became hot, Zheng Lan couldn't refute Pei Yan's face in front of so many people, so she nodded.

Both Pei Yan and Bai Hao had drunk, and Zheng Lan could only be driving.

Pei Yan sat in the co-pilot with her head leaning on the seat, and she didn't speak all the time.

The car drove to a fork in the road, heading towards Bai Hao's house and Pei Yan's house at the same time.

Bai Hao was in a daze, and was about to give Pei a banquet first, when Zheng Lan turned the steering wheel and went to his house.

"I'll see you off first." He told Bai Hao.

Soon he arrived at Bai Hao's house, he hesitated when he got off the car, and was driven away by Zheng Lan.

There were only the two of them left in the car, quietly.

After entering the community, Pei Yan showed Zheng Lan the way, turning left and right and simply said that the car was parked in the basement.

Zheng Lan took off her seat belt, and said to Pei Yan, "I'll go out and take a taxi by myself."

"No, you can drive away. I'll get it downstairs in your office tomorrow." Pei Yan stroked the hair on his forehead with his hands.

Only the dashboard was on in the car. Zheng Lan didn't want to say anything, but insisted on getting out of the car. As soon as her hand touched the door, Pei Yan pulled her back by clasping her wrist, and the door slammed shut.

With the back of her head facing Pei Yan, Zheng Lan asked him, "What are you doing?"

Pei Yan let go of his hand, and traced his back with his eyes, from hair, to shoulders, to shoulder blades, as if he wanted to penetrate the thin white shirt, his voice was low and hoarse.

"Others may think that our separation is ugly. But don't you know? Together or break up, it's your wish, why is it ugly?"

The sound seemed to come from far away.

Zheng Lan's fingers shook slightly, thinking of a day about two years ago.

Outside the international airport, there are farewell figures everywhere.Zheng Lan and Pei Yan stood very close, almost sticking together.

Pei Yan showed no expression, looked down at Zheng Lan, and asked him again: "Have you thought it through?"

"Think clearly," Zheng Lan met his gaze, her back was straight, and she didn't seem to be too sad. "We didn't get together because of love in the first place. Why do you regret it?"

"After so many quarrels, your words are the most hurtful." Pei Yan pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled, bent his index finger against his chin, and grazed his lips heavily with his thumb.

"Before you lost the game, you had to promise me a request. At that time, I said I didn't think about it, but now I think about it. We can finish it when I come back and have a breakup."

From this sentence, Zheng Lan waited for Pei Yan to break up with him for two years.

No one saw anyone for two years, and no one mentioned anyone.

So today Pei Yan can play rogue with him, look at him with twinkling peach blossom eyes, and ask: "I haven't slept with you yet, is it considered a breakup?"
