sunken square

After that day, Chen Yuechi would leave a piece of bread for Guan Rong every day, as long as he was in the shop.Occasionally, my younger sister would close the shop with him, and after seeing it a few times, she asked, "Brother Yue, why does your friend buy the same kind every day?"

"I don't know." Chen Yue answered.

Sister: "Huh?"

Chen Yue smiled: "Why do you ask this?"

"I'm curious," my sister said, "this person feels a bit strange."

The chef in the back kitchen brought out the freshly baked egg tarts and said with a smile, "A bit weird or a bit handsome?"

The younger sister made a grimace, "tch" and said, "Can't you be a little weird and a little handsome at the same time?"

It was rare for the boss to be in the store, and he heard their conversation and asked, "You are talking about Guan Rong?"

"Brother Lei knows him?" The younger sister was surprised.She and Chen Yuechi came here to work at about the same time, and her main job was reading after all, and she knew less than Chen Yuechi, so she became more curious.

While doing things, Chen Yuechi seemed to be listening casually.Lei Ge gave a short laugh: "Boss Guan, there are not many people on this street who don't know him."

"There are so many streets on this side of the square!" My sister opened her eyes wide, waved her hand, and drew a semicircle.

Lei Ge smiled: "What a little girl, don't look at Boss Guan like that..." He shook his head halfway through speaking.

"What's that like? How can Brother Lei say half a sentence!" the younger sister asked.

Lei Ge pretended to be vicious: "Do a good job and don't ask again. If you have anything to say about other people's affairs, be careful to deduct your salary!"

The younger sister made a grimace and turned to the back kitchen.

Chen Yue didn't have the habit of asking questions, and it was impossible for him to ask something at this time. Seeing that Lei Ge stopped talking, he put his mind away and did his own thing.

Lei Ge patted him on the shoulder as he walked out.He asked in a low voice, "Is she in a better mood?"

Chen Yuechi was stunned at first, but after realizing it, he smiled and said, "It seems to be better."

"Children have learned to hide things." Lei Ge sighed softly, "What's wrong with you children?"

"Hmm..." Chen Yuechi said, "Maybe it's just Brother Lei, you think we are still children, but in fact..."

"Actually, you've grown up a long time ago, haven't you?" Lei Ge laughed, and walked out the door as if throwing his hands away from the shopkeeper.Obviously only in his early thirties, he looks like an old man in his seventies and eighties.

The convenience store is still on night shift today, and I have to pay my colleagues half shift.Chen Yuechi came out of the cake shop early, and was about to take a shortcut from the alley. Halfway there, footsteps sounded from behind.

The strong feeling of being watched came again.Chen Yue held back and didn't look back, and continued to move forward steadily.There was an exit next to it leading to other streets and alleys. He should have gone straight, but now he deliberately turned a corner. After entering, he stooped and hid at the back door of a shop on the side of the road.

The footsteps were so light that he could even hear hesitation, Chen Yue held his breath, waited for the sound to stop nearby, and jumped——

The man was obviously frightened by him, and he was about to turn around in a panic, but Chen Yuechi had expected it, and stretched out his hand when he jumped out, and immediately grabbed his back collar, pulling the man to spin around.The opponent was not weak, turned over with strength, raised his leg and was about to kick Chen Yuechi, Chen Yuechi had to dodge for a while, and let go of the force of the arm being rotated.He almost broke free.

Between pushing and shoving, Chen Yue's dark fire, which he had suppressed for a long time, rushed up, making him a little bit unable to control the strength in his hands.

After so long, he has doubted for so long, how could he let go of those who stared at him.

He used brute force to hit him head-on, until the person was against the wall and couldn't move, and took advantage of the situation to grab the other person's throat.The man was forced to hiss in pain.Only then did Chen Yuechi stop, close his eyes tightly, and wait for the momentary violent emotion to dissipate.

The light in the alley dimmed, Chen Yue let go of his hand, and saw the face of the person in front of him clearly.An ordinary face can be regarded as handsome at best.And he had a vague impression of the face.

That person is still struggling, although he can't get rid of it, but it still makes people very irritable.Chen Yuechi had no choice but to restrain him a bit more, and asked in a low voice, "Why are you following me?"

The other party pursed his lips tightly and did not answer, Chen Yuechi asked again.

He didn't know what his expression was now, but the eyes in front of him showed a trace of fear, and they were forcibly suppressed again.

Realizing that he really couldn't escape, the man no longer resisted, and lowered his eyes and said, "Is that you?"

"What?" Chen Yuechi frowned.

The man should be vague, but he was gnashing his teeth: "Guan Rong's boyfriend."

Chen Yue was at a loss, and it took two seconds for him to react.He didn't expect that he had been worrying for so long, waiting half in anticipation and half in panic, and it turned out to be like this.

He completely let go of the restraint on this person, and stood with his hands down.

This thing is a bit absurd, so absurd that he wants to laugh a little.Or to exaggerate, this is beyond his understanding of things.

The man rubbed his neck, and seeing Chen Yuezhi like this, he stopped running, and said, "I just want to know what Guan Rong's boyfriend is like, but I never thought it was you."

Chen Yuechi felt that all the strength in his body suddenly lost, he smiled carelessly, and said very softly: "I'm not his boyfriend."

The man looked at him suspiciously and said, "But he's never been this close to anyone before."

Chen Yuechi wanted to laugh again, and he didn't know why, he and Guan Rong were at best a gentleman's friend, they were as cold as white, why they were called "so close".Even if it is really close, it is not close to the word "boyfriend".

"Believe it or not, I don't like men."

I don't like women either.

Chen Yue swallowed the second half of the sentence, and left after speaking.The people behind said loudly: "You don't like men, why do you flirt in front of him every day?!"

The nameless evil fire in the dark held Chen Yuechi hostage.He hadn't had this kind of mood swing for a long time, and it took a lot of effort to keep the surface calm.Hearing this sentence, he sneered in his heart.If you want to say who is swaying in front of whom, who is swaying in front of whom?

When I walked to the convenience store, I finally calmed down.After all, what does it have to do with Guan Rong, he doesn't want his admirer to follow Chen Yuechi either.

Chen Yuechi's anger came very unreasonably.

He didn't want to go deep into his heart, he just felt a dull pain in his head and a dull pain in his bones, and he didn't feel comfortable anywhere, like the feeling of sitting in a dark corner for a long time before.It seemed to be covered in moss.

Chen Yuechi is very good at coping with pain, as long as he imagines his body as a stone carving, it is the stone carving that grows moss, not him.Then the body does not belong to him, and pain and all discomfort do not belong to him either.

In the early morning, Guan Rong appeared at the convenience store.

Chen Yuechi is very used to him now, and he also knows that he doesn't like politeness, so he smiled as a greeting, and then stopped talking.Guan Rong walked through the shelves, and finally came to check out with a bunch of snacks.Mostly bought for the bottle.

Chen Yuechi was lowering his head to scan the price, when the back of a hand was pressed against his forehead suddenly, Chen Yuechi was startled by the touch of skin and flesh.Without thinking, he had already instinctively swung his head, and his movements were greatly out of the way.

"Are you..." At the same time, Guan Rong paused in the middle of his words.He looked at him in surprise, his hands still in the air.

Chen Yuechi found himself very aggressive.

He hadn't felt this kind of vigilance for a long time, and this long-lost reaction made him feel a thin layer of fear.Two seconds later, he explained palely: "Mr. Guan, I'm sorry, I was shocked..."

"It's okay." Guan Rong could no longer see any emotion, and just withdrew his hand flatly.
