The medicine jar is loved and abused

In the evening, when Shao Zhengjue came back from his errands, he passed by the cafe on the first floor of the building, and suddenly stopped in his tracks.

"Mr. Shen?"

Shao Zhengjue walked into the cafe: "Why are you here? Why don't you go up?"

There was a cup of milk coffee in front of Shen Ning, and he almost didn't drink it. He smiled and said:

"I won't go up to disturb you, I'm going to get off work anyway."

It has been almost an hour since Shen Ning came here, and he sat down blankly, watching the people who kept coming and going on the steps.

"That's it, then I'll go up and talk to Mr. Xie."

"It's okay, hey, I saw a lot of people in Xie's uniforms entering and leaving the building, what's the matter?"

"Ah, this." Shao Zhengjue looked at the employees wearing Xie's uniform outside, and said:

"The company has two physical examinations at the beginning and end of each year, and the company's employees go to the hospital in batches to avoid crowding."

"Then your company benefits are very good."

"Yes, Mr. Xie often teaches us that the body is the capital of future life. Everything is based on physical health, and everything else is trivial."

Shen Ningxin said that this is not like what Xie Yinhui said, it is another form to say it.But when he mentioned the physical examination, he felt inexplicably panicked, and said casually:

"If that's the case, I'll go there anytime. I'll ask Assistant Shao to help arrange it."

Shao Zhengjue didn't think too much, and replied: "Mr. Xie has already arranged for Mr. Shen."

The fake smile on Shen Ning's face suddenly froze, he raised his head suddenly, and immediately put on a surprised smile after seeing Shao's slightly surprised face.

"I'm so happy, Mr. Xie really cares about me. This matter should be a little secret between us, otherwise Mr. Xie's arrangement will be in vain."

Shao Zhengjue nodded, and the two exchanged a few more pleasantries before he went upstairs.

After he left, Shen Ning's face slowly settled down.

"It's okay." He said to himself, comforting himself in a low voice.

"Haven't you already decided to separate from Xie Yin? This just gives you another reason to leave."

"Mr. Xie is very good to you, you must... must be worthy of him."

......

Shen Ning sent a message to Shao Zhengjue, saying that he suddenly had something to do, so he went back first, and there was no need to tell Xie Yin that he had been here.After he left, he drove to the gallery.

This gallery is managed by Qiao Yuyan, he sent a message to Qiao Yuyan in advance, and when the time came, Qiao Yuyan was already waiting for him.

"You said that you want to entrust us to be responsible for exhibiting your paintings at the Asia Exhibition in April?"

"Yes." Shen Ning said straightforwardly, "I'm not familiar with the exhibition matters, and I'm not in good health. I hope to have a professional handle such a high-intensity job."

"Of course, we can recommend professionals for you, but you may need to sign some documents at that time."

"Ok, no problem."

After coming out of the gallery, Shen Ning let out a breath, looked at the gradually darkening sky outside the door, and walked towards home.

And a few minutes ago, in Xie's building.

In the CEO's office, Xie Yin looked up at the man in front of him through the flickering laptop screen:

"You said you saw Shen Ning downstairs?"

Shao Zhengjue: "Yes, I met Mr. Shen, and we also mentioned the medical examination. But when I went upstairs, he sent me a message saying that he had gone back." As for what he told himself not to tell Xie Yin, he are all hidden.

Xie Yin frowned slightly: "Did you say the specific time?"

"No."

"Okay, you go down."

After Shao Zhengjue went down, Xie Yin looked at the time, it was a quarter past five in the evening, and he had a dinner party tonight, and it would be around eight o'clock when he got home.

He closed his eyes heavily, Shen Ning, what are you thinking?

......

......

After returning from the dinner party, it was past [-]:[-] when he got home, Shen Ning was not going to sleep at this time.

A lamp in the living room welcomed his late return, Xie Yin stepped lightly, went upstairs and opened the door of the room.

No study, no bedroom, no studio.

Xie Yin finally walked to the door of the music room, and just as he opened the door, earth-shattering music poured out like volcanic rocks.Xie Yin frowned unconsciously. He quickly scanned the room and saw a figure on a sofa.

Shen Ning lay sideways on the sofa, with his feet curled up slightly, his eyelashes trembling slightly in the direct light, and his fingertips danced along with the sound of the music.

A figure covered him, Shen Ning sharply opened his eyes, opened his mouth when he saw the man's face, and then quickly sat up:

"Mr. Xie, you are back."

Xie Yin lowered the volume of the stereo and said, "Can your ears bear it?"

"Actually, I only came in for 10 minutes. It's really only 10 minutes." He had an expression of wanting to swear to the sky.

"En." Xie Yin nodded, reaching for the earphones hanging around his neck.

Shen Ning subconsciously leaned back to avoid his touch.After realizing his behavior, he lowered his gaze to avoid the man's questioning gaze once again.

But he quickly opened his eyelashes, looked at Xie Yin seriously and said:

"Mr. Xie, I have something to tell you."

Xie Yin slowly withdrew his hand and said calmly, "Say it."

The boy showed a shallow smile, and there was a bit of embarrassment in that innocent smile.

"That's Mr. Xie. I want to focus on oil painting in the future. You know, I have a bit of talent in painting, and I will definitely achieve a lot in the future. If our relationship like this is dug out in the future, it will have a great impact on me." No, so I want to break up with you."

"Actually, it's not a breakup."

He frowned and said troubledly: "It can only be said to terminate the contract. If Mr. Xie wants to collect liquidated damages, I am willing to pay. For example, it is better to be Mr. Xie's lover, or to be a painter."

"After all, we have a disgraceful relationship," he said.

When he was speaking, he kept looking into Xie Yin's eyes, as if to prove that his heart and his mouth were in agreement, that he was thinking exactly in the bottom of his heart.

Xie Yin's eyes moved down from his gleaming eyes, and settled on the two small, ruddy swirls on his joyful face.Recently, Shen Ning's face often flushed red, like two clouds, looking healthy, but felt a little strange.Aunt Li said that she would make up for him so that he would not get sick again.

He has to work overtime for this little bastard, and has to spend extra time and energy dealing with those who are hostile to him. He also has to think about what the weather is like today, whether it will rain tomorrow, whether he has an umbrella... ...

Aunt Li also thought about the daily meals and desserts for him, and saw that there were a few more wrinkles; it was spring, and the flowers in the yard were about to bloom again. He was so sensitive to pollen. I am also worrying about which flowers should be removed, how to trim the whole yard... the whole family is almost all around him, but who would have thought that this little bastard would put him down whenever he encountered a problem. I quit.

He ran away.

Because you are aware of your physical abnormality, and because you are going to take you for a medical examination, you are afraid.What secret is hidden in your body that makes you not even have the courage to face it with me.

Break up, is this the way you thought of?

Xie Yin looked at him steadfastly, with a deep light flowing in his dark pupils, oppressive and turbulent.

He didn't speak for a long time, and his eyes were so terrifying. The burning and sinister look made Shen Ning's chest tremble suddenly.With a flash of his eyes, he avoided Xie Yin's sight and took a breath before continuing:

"Mr. Xie, I—"

"can."

"What?" Shen Ning was in a daze, thinking that he had heard it wrong.

"I said yes."

"We can break up." Xie Yin's gaze has returned to ease, as if the sullen and cold moment was just Shen Ning's illusion.

In his expression, even with the kind of doting that he occasionally has when looking at boys, he said tolerantly and gently:

"As you said, our relationship is indeed not conducive to your future development. I can completely understand that you want to break up. I don't want liquidated damages either. After all, we have known each other for so long."

"However, there is no righteousness in buying and selling. There are still 9 days in this month. Even if we break up, there must be a buffer period, otherwise Aunt Li will become suspicious. Let's break up after these 9 days pass and this month is over."

Shen Ning opened his mouth and let out an "ah".

Xie Yin frowned and said in displeasure: "Why, don't you even help with this?"

"It will take time for me to find the next one."

Shen Ning's expression twisted for a moment, and he quickly returned to God:

"Yes, yes."

"I will keep this last time."

"That's good." Xie Yin raised the corners of his lips and said with a smile:

"Don't have a psychological burden, go back to sleep, we will think about the future tomorrow."

"it is good."

Shen Ning was pushed back to the room by Xie Yin in a daze. He lowered his head all the way, and wanted to turn around and say something before entering the room, but in the end he didn't say any extra words, but raised a smiling face and said gratefully:

"Thank you, Mr. Xie, and good night."

"Good night."

Xie Yin kept looking at him gently, until the door of the room was closed and he was the only one left in the corridor, the expression on his face suddenly sank.

......

......

The next morning, the spring rain that had been falling for a week finally cleared up. The air in the morning was so fresh that even my brain seemed to have been immersed in a clear spring in the mountains.In front of the mirror, the boy's face was pale and his eyes were as clear as eyes. He patted his cheek several times with his hands before slowly opening the door and going downstairs.

In the restaurant, Aunt Li had already prepared breakfast, Shen Ning sat in his seat as usual, just about to say good morning, Xie Yin stood up from the chair, and left the table without saying hello.

Shen Ning was at a loss for a moment, until Aunt Li muttered why Mr. Xie finished eating so early today, he suddenly remembered that now they are already in the "quarrel" stage of the early breakup, and people like Xie Yin will definitely not quarrel There was a lot of trouble, so the plot he chose for them was "Cold War".

Xie Yin is really... everything.

Aunt Li came out of the room, saw that Shen Ning hadn't moved her chopsticks, and said, "Mr. Shen, why don't you eat it? Is it not to your liking?"

I don't know if it's because of acting or a real lack of appetite, Shen Ning raised a slightly pale face and said, "I don't have a good appetite recently."

"Is that so?" Aunt Li asked urgently, "Then do you want to invite a doctor to come over and take a look? Is there anything else wrong?"

When Shen Ninggang answered, Aunt Li's eyes lit up suddenly, and she shouted loudly: "Sir, Mr. Shen is not in good health, do you want to call the doctor?"

Shen Ning's health is the family's greatest concern, and if it is normal, Xie Yin will be taught a lesson if he favors or scolds him.However, today's Xie Yin seemed unable to understand the meaning of her words, and said in a cold tone:

"If you feel uncomfortable, see a doctor. Don't call me. I'm not a doctor."

Aunt Li: "..."

She looked at Xie Yin, who had a gloomy face, and then at Shen Ning, who lowered his head and said nothing, only then did she realize that the two gentlemen in the family had quarreled.

Xie Yin left quickly, and the doctor didn't say hello when he left. Aunt Li sent him to the door and came back after watching the car turn the corner and disappear.

"Mr. Shen, this..."

Shen Ning raised his face and said with a smile, "I just have a bad appetite, so I don't need to call a doctor."

"Yes Yes......"

The cold war between the two kicked off. Xie Yin's performance was delicate and long-lasting. The 9-day breakup transitional plot was like a real couple quarreling and breaking up in a cold war.

The atmosphere in the entire villa was stiff, and Aunt Li often showed worried expressions, but in her capacity, she couldn't say anything.

After class, Shen Ning returned to the villa. Aunt Li said, "Come on, sir, it's time to eat. I made you your favorite hot and sour lotus root slices."

Shen Ning asked casually: "Mr. Xie won't come back to eat?"

Aunt Li's face froze, she laughed and said, "Mr. won't come back today."

"oh, I see."

Xie's current scale does not require their president to show up every day and go to the wine shop to make relationships with people.Unless he was on a business trip, Xie Yin seldom didn't come back for dinner for a few nights in a row, and this week he didn't come back for three days in a row. Who was he trying to avoid, the answer was self-evident.

"It's okay." He smiled and said, "Since Mr. Xie won't come back, let's have dinner."

Aunt Li ate this meal carefully. Seeing her like this, Shen Ning lost his appetite, so he ate some casually. He returned to the room, and his finger landed on a recent conversation or a week ago. In the box, his fingertips probed the Jiugongge input method that jumped out, but he took it back after a few seconds.

Forget it.

......

On Friday, after two classes in the morning, Shen Ning suddenly received a message from Aunt Li.

"Mr. Shen, I brought some fresh vegetables from my hometown, and I want to make cold dishes. This dish should be eaten fresh. I asked my husband if he will come back today and he will not reply to my message. Can you ask for me?"

Shen Ning opened his mouth. He clearly knew Aunt Li's thoughts, but cheating on Aunt Li already made him feel very sorry. He really didn't want to embarrass her about such a trivial matter, so he said:

"it is good."

"Okay, sir, you must remember to ask!"

After Shen Ning took out his mobile phone, he sat blankly on the classroom seat for a long time, and waited until a few students around him slowly came back, before he stretched out his hand and typed slowly.He pressed the send button, and a message jumped to the above dialog box with a bang.

Shen Ning only felt that his heart also trembled.

[Shen Ning: Mr. Xie, are you coming back for dinner tonight?Aunt Li wants to make cold vegetables, but this dish cannot be served, so I don’t know if I should prepare it for you. 】

After he sent this message, he kept his phone by his side, and checked the message notification on purpose. After he confirmed that the message notification was indeed on, he jumped out to reply.

[Boss: Hello Mr. Shen, I'm Shao Zhengjue, Mr. Xie is in a meeting, he won't come back for dinner tonight. 】

"..."

After a while, he typed a few words on the screen:

【Shen Ning: Then will he go to work tomorrow? 】

[Boss: I'm not sure, Mr. Shen. 】

[Shen Ning: Got it, thank you Assistant Shao. 】

[Boss: You're welcome. 】

The screen slowly dimmed, and the boy on the stool in the room seemed to have fallen into a coma as he took in the sunlight from the tilted window. After a while, he heard the sound of the chair being pushed away heavily.

......

......

Shen Ning was in a depressed mood. Although he proposed the breakup, Xie Yin avoided him so clearly, which still made him very hurt.

Xie Yin's ability to straighten out his emotions and change course so quickly can only show that in his heart, Shen Ning is not that important at all.

——Perhaps in fact, I won’t be very sad when I leave Mr. Xie, right?

At the thought of this possibility, Shen Ning froze.If I knew it earlier, I would have said it a few days later, and I will say it after squeezing him dry.

Because of the breakup, Shen Ning began to pack his things intermittently. There were too many things in his room, all of which were bought by Xie Yin as gifts for him. There were the simplest clothes and shoes, as well as scarves, brooches, rings and new notebooks, including things that had been stolen recently. Drum kit left out.

He packed up his things and opened the door, listening to the noise outside from time to time. After hearing footsteps at the stairs, he quickly got up and walked out of the room.

"Mr. Xie—"

Xie Yin put one hand on the doorknob of the bedroom, and turned his head when he heard the voice. His back was straight, his facial features were deep and three-dimensional, and the lamp above the corridor hit his eyelashes and bridge of nose from top to bottom, showing a very alienated and indifferent face. shadows.

He seemed wary and impatient with the boy he was facing.

This realization made Shen Ning lose heart all of a sudden.What, I'm the only one who considers him a friend.

He said "softly", "What's the matter?"

Shen Ning's lips twitched a few times, and several sentences that were brewing lost the strength to squeeze out his throat. He was bored, and finally he could only say:

"I want to give you back what Mr. Xie gave me."

"Okay, trouble."

After he finished speaking, he entered the door and quickly closed the door.

"..."

Shen Ning stood outside his door for a long time before slowly walking back to his room.

A few minutes later, Shen Ning knocked on Xie Yin's door with the packed things.

"Mr. Xie, this is what you gave me. I took away the clothes I often wear. I put the new untouched ones in the room and sorted them out. There are also the brooch and bracelet you gave me. , watch..."

He lowered his head and said:

"I don't want any of these. Anyway, it's Mr. Xie's money. I just want my paintings. If Mr. Xie doesn't mind, I'll take all the brave paints and canvases with me."

Xie Yin sat on the chair, his eyelashes lowered and his eyes fell on the opened box, and he could see all kinds of accessories that were visited and sorted inside, each of which had been carefully wiped, so it was as shiny as new.

After a while he said:

"Where's my ring?"

Shen Ning's hand on the outside of his thigh shrank back, and soon he stretched out his hand with his lips tightly pursed, and when he put it in front of Xie Yin, he suddenly shrank his fingers. There was a touch of red at the end of his eyes, and his face It's an embarrassed smile.

He looked at Xie Yin and said, "Mr. Xie, can you give me the ring? Anyway, Mr. Xie is not short of it. Or sell it to me, can it be cheaper?" He pretended to be cute.

Xie Yin was silent for a moment, and said:

"Yes, yes, but the communication line that directly contacts me must be deleted."

Shen Ning suddenly felt boring.

"No, I'll give it back to you, I don't want it anymore."

He quickly took off the ring on his hand, Xie Yin looked at the listless face on the other side, without worrying about his mood, just said:

"You can keep the car Xiaobai gave you. After all, it was given to you by him. I have no right to take it back, and he probably won't take it back. You can also take away your drum. It's useless to stay here. As for the yacht ..."

Shen Ning said loudly: "I told you, I don't want any of them, you take them all!"

After the sound hit the eardrums, both of them were stunned. A trace of surprise flashed in Shen Ning's eyes, and he said quickly:

"Sorry, Mr. Xie, I was too loud."

"I'm sorry, I'm going back to the room first, and I'll give you back all these!" He took out the ring on his hand, put it on the table quickly, and walked out of the room quickly.

In the empty study room, there was only a silvery white light and a black shadow reflected from the chair.The dark shadow continued to extend to every corner of the room, until it occupied the entire room so that there was no room for other things.

After a long time, there was a sigh in the room.

......

Not long after Shen Ning returned to the house, there was a knock on the door outside.The knock on the door didn't sound like Aunt Li's, it was more calm and unscrupulous.

After waiting for a long time before it disappeared, Shen Ning had no choice but to shout: "Come in."

Xie Yin opened the door. In the room, the boy was sitting cross-legged on the sofa. He originally lowered his head, but when he saw him coming in, he raised his head.

His voice was deep and deep, falling in the air like a euphonium's gentle and long narration, no longer the "sunshine" he faced Xie Yinshi before.

He said, "What are you doing here?"

Xie Yin said gently: "I thought that even if we ended our contractual relationship, we would still be considered friends."

The boy's eyes with a gloomy expression lit up, but quickly dimmed again.

"Mr. Xie avoided me on purpose, so why bother coaxing me with this sentence."

He whispered: "It's not that I didn't return the things to you..."

Xie Yin sat beside him. Shen Ning is now making a single sofa, and if he wants to sit for two people, he has to squeeze. He moved his buttocks to make room for him.

Xie Yin sat down and said:

"I thought it was you who wanted to do this. After all, you are going to be a great painter in the future. I am afraid that I will affect the reputation of a great painter in the future."

Xie Yin seldom talks to others in such a self-deprecating tone, his identity doesn't need it.But this way of speaking is indeed useful, and the effect is immediate, Shen Ning quickly turned to look at him and said:

"So you didn't mean to avoid me?"

"No, I thought we knew each other about that."

Who knows, Mr. Xie is too hard to guess.But now Shen Ning can't care about these anymore, he asked eagerly:

"Then we, are we still ordinary friends?"

"Of course." The word 'ordinary friend' slipped on the tip of Xie Yin's tongue, he laughed and said:

"Now it's just for acting, to make the breakup more natural. After you leave, we can also contact you."

What, it turned out that it was because of this, Shen Ning's heart that had been heavy for the past few days suddenly relaxed.

"I thought Mr. Xie would forget me right away."

With bright eyes he said:

"If it's a friend, we can contact by phone, and we can meet occasionally. In the future - if I go to other cities or countries in the future, I will send a postcard to Mr. Xie until Mr. Xie finds a new friend. And have a life of their own.”

Xie Yin's dark eyes looked deeply into Shen Ning's eyes, looked at his unpretentious, really happy face, nodded and said:

"Okay."

Shen Ning relaxed visibly.

"Great."

Xie Yin watched him regain his spirit calmly, and suddenly said:

"Then can I kiss you now?"

Shen Ning let out an "ah" and said blankly:

"But friends can't kiss."

Xie Yin laughed at what he said.

"Yes, but don't we have another relationship?"

Another layer, relationships that are not included in the contract.

Shen Ning's eyes were shaken, with an expression of being persuaded by him, Xie Yin ignored his inner struggle, supported the sofa with one hand, bent down and kissed him.His breath had the effect of bewitching, Shen Ning's heart was beating violently, and he slowly closed his eyes, his lips touched two soft and dry lips.

Half a minute later, he wrapped his arms around the man's shoulders.

The author has something to say:

Shen: Our relationship is not good at all, we are just ordinary friends + a little physical pao friend

XIE: Yes, we are just ordinary friends (smile)

Next Chapter Hospital

(I was chased by the update, but I actually wanted to write a chapter of the "breakup" plot)
