Chapter 12 2

Yu Zhinian returned to the room he had lived in for more than a year, but he didn't pay attention to whether there was any change in the room, and he didn't want to recall it. He was extremely sleepy. He opened the suitcase tiredly, took out a change of clothes, took a shower, and fell asleep. sleep.

This sleep was very heavy, he didn't have any dreams, his hands and feet were weak, but he didn't sleep enough.

The nanny kept knocking on his door, forcing him to wake him up from sleep. He walked over to open the door top-heavy. She stood at the door and told him softly: "Mr. Yu, it's time for dinner. It's already seven o'clock."

Yu Zhinian was still not fully awake, and went downstairs drowsily wearing a wrinkled T-shirt and pajama pants, and saw Yang Ke was already sitting at the table with all the dishes on the table.

The sun has not completely set, the sunset glow is orange-red, and the room is very warm.

Yang Ke has not changed, the chef's specialty dishes have not changed, the angle of the sunset has not changed, the tableware and tablecloths, and even the white flowers on the table have not changed.For a brief moment, Yu Zhinian felt that he was back at this time last year.

But at this time last year, there was nothing to recall, not even as good as now.

Yu Zhinian sat on the chair, picked up the chopsticks, and thought in a trance, at least now that he has successfully uttered the renunciation of trust, he doesn't have to be so pins and needles, full of guilt, and make a confession every bite of food.

The restaurant was silent, almost only the sound of tableware hitting porcelain plates.

Yu Zhinian just woke up, his appetite was poor, he ate a few mouthfuls, put down his chopsticks, and wanted to go upstairs to sleep again, when Yang Ke said coldly, "Why, I'm not used to not eating for half a year?"

Yu Zhinian raised his head in a daze, and glanced at Yang Ke, Yang Ke also froze for some reason.

Yang Ke still wore his afternoon clothes, but he took off his coat, his tie, and one of his shirt buttons.He is handsome, tall, and has a good physique. Yu Zhinian thinks he has no shortcomings.

However, according to the words of Zhu Peijia, a high school classmate, Yang Ke's temperament and eyes are really cold, and his words are very unkind, which makes people afraid to approach him, and can't produce close feelings.

Yu Zhinian himself likes Yang Ke, but when he looks at Yang Ke, it may be different from what others see, so he cannot fairly evaluate this description.

But judging from Yang Ke's emotional experience, what Pei Jia said is probably correct.

The two looked at each other for a few seconds, Yang Ke looked away, lowered his voice, and said to Yu Zhinian, "Why do you eat so little?"

His tone was still blunt, but Yu Zhinian was very tired and didn't care too much. He just explained to Yang Ke: "I don't have a good appetite and I'm full." Then he told Yang Ke: "I went upstairs and continued to sleep. .”

"Why did you sleep again?" Yang Ke frowned slightly, looking at him as if dissatisfied with him.

"I didn't sleep on the plane," Yu Zhinian paused, then added, "I couldn't sleep."

"why?"

"..." Yu Zhinian was reluctant to answer, because he didn't want Yang Ke and felt that he was pretending to be pitiful, but Yang Ke looked at him, as if he had to wait for a reason why he didn't sleep for more than ten hours, so he had to say vaguely , "There are too many things to do when I come back, and I am a little anxious."

After landing, he will come to Yang Ke's house to move things, take the rented house with him, sort out the moved items, go to school, have a meeting, reply to Lawyer Li, and continue to write a thesis.

When the house expires, someone will have to clean the apartment and move again.

Thinking of these things, Yu Zhinian seemed to have lost the ability to fall asleep, and became extremely awake, just looking for something to do to divert his attention and cover up his emotions.

After he finished speaking, Yang Ke didn't answer the conversation, nor did he continue to eat.Yu Zhinian couldn't understand whether he was angry or thinking about something.During this period, Yang Ke's phone vibrated several times, and it seemed that there were incoming calls all the time, but he hung up all of them.

After waiting for a while, Yu Zhinian felt that Yang Ke should not plan to chat any more. Just as he was about to get up and go upstairs, Yang Ke suddenly asked, "Have you found a new boyfriend yet?"

Yu Zhinian was stunned, looked at Yang Ke, and after a while, he denied it awkwardly and inexplicably: "No."

"Oh," Yang Ke glanced at him, "I thought you eloped with someone."

Yu Zhinian didn't know what to say, and remained silent for a moment, before saying, "Who can I elope with." After he finished speaking, he felt embarrassed, and repeated "I'm going upstairs" to Yang Ke, and then left the restaurant.Yang Ke didn't keep him anymore.

What Yang Ke said was so strange that Yu Zhinian didn't sleep well the second time he slept.

The word "elope" repeatedly appeared in his mind. After a few hours of half-dream and half-waking, he finally became a little more energetic. He looked at the time and saw that it was already eleven o'clock. Adjust the time difference.

Yu Zhinian walked out of the room, walked along the dark corridor, and walked to the door of the study.The door was closed, and Yu Zhinian opened it directly habitually, only to see that the room was brightly lit, and Yang Ke was sitting at the desk, talking on the phone with a headset, and holding a document in his hand.

Seeing each other, both of them froze.

Yang Ke didn't know whether he was afraid that he would hear the commercial secrets or something, so he quickly hung up the phone, took off his earphones, and asked him, "Are you awake?"

"Well, I want to come and get a book," Yu Zhinian stood at the door and nodded, "Excuse me?"

Yang Ke didn't show any impatient expression, and simply said: "Take it."

Yu Zhinian walked in and went to the bookcase to choose books.

He didn't want to read professional books, so he chose the row of novels for a while, and took a Russian novel that he had read several times and he still liked. Just as he was about to turn around, he heard Yang Ke's voice sounding very close to him.

"Is this a good book?"

Yu Zhinian was taken aback, turned around, and found that Yang Ke had got up and walked behind him at some point, with his head slightly lowered, reading the book in his hand.

Yu Zhinian's hands were still soft, and he almost missed the book. Looking at Yang Ke, he didn't speak for a long time.

"Ask you." After waiting for a while, Yang Ke asked him again in a low voice, "Does it look good?"

The lamp was behind Yang Ke, and the shadow of his body enveloped Yu Zhinian, looking at Yu Zhinian with calm eyes.Yu Zhinian looked into Yang Ke's eyes, then looked down at the book in his hand, and said after a while, "It's okay."

He and Yang Ke haven't spoken normally for a long time, and their distance must be less than the shortest limit of social distance, although Yang Ke didn't notice it.Therefore, it was not surprising that Yu Zhinian's heartbeat became faster, and the heat spread from his chest to his cheeks.

"Do you want to see it?" He pretended to ask casually without looking at Yang Ke.

"I haven't read this series of novels," Yang Ke answered irrelevantly, "Your textbooks are more hypnotic."

Yu Zhinian unconsciously looked up at Yang Ke: "Have you read my textbook?"

Yang Ke gave a "hmm" and asked back, "No?"

He reached out, passed Yu Zhinian's cheeks and ears, took a book, and showed it to Yu Zhinian: "This one."

Yang Ke just waved the cover of the book in front of Yu Zhinian, then took it back by himself, and looked down at it: "This book is the most boring and sleepies the fastest."

"..." Yu Zhinian didn't know what to say. After thinking about it, he told Yang Ke, "If you want, I can leave it to you. But I may still take some expensive ones."

He lowered his head slightly, and saw that Yang Ke's hand that was flipping the book suddenly stopped.

Yang Ke didn't say anything. Yu Zhinian might be used to finding topics, so he couldn't help asking Yang Ke: "Have you been working in this study recently?"

Because Yang Ke was originally in the larger study on the third floor.

Yang Ke said "hmm".

"This room has better lighting," he added.

Yu Zhinian let out an "oh", and felt that something was wrong, but he didn't think about it. After thinking for a while, he said, "Then is there any book you must want?"

"What do you want?" Yang Ke didn't seem to understand.

"Books," Yu Zhinian looked at him, and said patiently, "I'll leave you what you particularly want. Expensive ones are fine too."

Yang Ke looked at him for a few seconds, closed the book, and asked Yu Zhinian like a normal chat: "Why did you take away the expensive ones? Is it because you don't have enough money?"

Yu Zhinian was slightly taken aback, but didn't speak, Yang Ke then asked: "Why don't you want trust money if you don't have money to spend?"

"You don't want it for free?" Yang Ke moved closer to Yu Zhinian and looked down at him.

Yu Zhinian took a step back subconsciously, leaning his back against the bookcase.The wood of the bookcase hit the bones in his back.

Yang Ke had no expression on his face, and his voice was very calm.Yu Zhinian couldn't tell whether Yang Ke was humiliating him or simply asking questions.It's just that these questions really frightened Yu Zhinian and made him suffer.

Yu Zhinian had a dull pain from his head to his fingers, and stared blankly at Yang Ke, but didn't say anything.

Yang Ke put the book in his hand on the shelf casually, lowered his head and asked him, "Why not?"

Many words flashed through Yu Zhinian's head, and after a long time he reluctantly said: "I just don't want it anymore."

"Don't you want money?" Yang Ke said, suddenly stopped, and then said, "Then what else?"

Yu Zhinian looked at Yang Ke, unable to get any information from Yang Ke's eyes, and couldn't figure out what "other" specifically meant.

He asked Yang Ke: "What else?"

Yang Ke suddenly stopped talking.

Yu Zhinian looked away and looked down at the book in his hand. After a long time of thinking, he guessed that Yang Ke might still be doubting his decision and motives. After calming down for a while, he broke the silence and said to Yang Ke: "I am Really don't want it anymore."

"Yang Ke," he leaned his back against the bookcase, clutched the book tightly, searched for the right words with not a lot of reason, and explained in a good voice, "I didn't come to fight against you. I said I would give up trust. I will lie to you. I can’t live in the rented house this time, and I don’t want to. I can move out tomorrow morning. I’ll go to the warehouse and take the things in the basement first. Don’t lose your temper.”

"You can go now," he assured Yang Ke, "I really have no other intentions."

Although Yang Ke didn't look relieved after listening to Yu Zhinian's words, at least he didn't press Yu Zhinian again.

He looked at Yu Zhinian for a long time, as if he was judging whether Yu Zhinian was telling the truth, and then said to Yu Zhinian: "Go to sleep first."

"You don't seem to be in a good spirit," he said, and paused, but he still didn't move away. After a while, he suddenly said, "I lost my temper."

"I'm just asking," he added, "I don't care if you live here."

In the end, Yu Zhinian didn't know how he got out of the study room. He returned to the room and was not in the mood to read again. He walked around the room nervously for a few times, walked to the suitcase, took out the computer and turned it on, and carefully sorted out the computer. He recalled his unfinished shorthand materials in Ning City.
