The pedestrian street was as lively as ever. When it was time for meals, the mixed flavors of various foods floated in the air, and the colorful neon lights diffused in the scattered snowflakes.

Xi Ye was wearing a black overcoat that was windy when he walked, but his steps were hesitant, and he followed Ji Yanli half-believingly, and couldn't help asking: "Senior, you don't do your homework today?"

"Don't write now, stay up late at night and write."

"Not working either?"

"Hit something, I resigned."

"How are your legs?"

"Isn't that a good walk? I'm walking ahead of you... How are your legs?"

Xi Ye thought for a while, followed behind wondering for a long time, endured and endured, and asked, "Are you not angry anymore? I thought about it. What was marked was my fault. I apologize."

Ji Yanli stopped, vaguely remembering that when Xi Ye fought with the chairman last time, he aggressively insisted that he did nothing wrong.

I don't know why, during this period of time, Ji Yanli has changed, and he has also changed.

Ji Yanli looked back at him, and smiled with crooked eyes: "Okay, then this matter will be over, if everything is so easy."

Xi Ye had no choice but to continue to follow behind, his anxiety did not decrease but increased. There must be a reason for the abnormality, but he didn't want to ruin this rare and difficult meal appointment just because of this reason.

Xi Ye took a few steps to catch up: "Senior, what do you want to eat?"

"Casual?" Ji Yanli looked at him and said, blinking, "I've wronged you, it's too expensive, and I'm embarrassed to ask you to treat me."

So the two sat in a Malatang that looked very "casual" and "wronged". There are tables and chairs, and there are a lot of self-serving strings in the large indoor freezer.

Xi Ye also took a pink basket and put it there to pick skewers. He was still thinking about what Ji Yanli likes to eat, when he turned around and found that Ji Yanli raised two fingers at the boss: "Two bottles of beer, thank you."

Xi Ye: "You still drink?!"

Ji Yanli had already sat in an empty seat next to him, and waited for him with his chin resting. Xi Ye thought he was staring at him seriously and was a little at a loss, but later found that the senior's glasses had no fucking lenses at all. He didn't look at it, he was just in a daze.

Xi Ye was speechless and funny, stretched out his hand and waved in front of his eyes: "Senior, how many fingers are these?"

Ji Yanli joked: "Six roots."

Xi Ye grinned happily: "Myopia is so severe, why can't you wear useful glasses?...Do you want to eat spicy food?"

"Don't eat."

Ji Yanli said again: "Wait, it's hot, the kind that can make people dizzy."

Xi Ye: "...do you want it spicy?"

Ji Yanli said: "Spicy!"

Xi Ye gave the basket to the boss speechlessly, and then came back with the beer, flicked the middle finger with the thumb, opened the bottle cap, and pushed it to him together with the glass: "Senior, you are acting strange today. Yes, do you make fun of me?"

Ji Yanli ignored him, Ji Yanli held the neck of the wine bottle, not even the glass, directly to his mouth, raised his head, and drank it down.

"Senior?" Xi Yeren was dumbfounded.

Ji Yanli raised his head, half-closed his eyes, rested his elbow on the table, and gradually raised his other hand. He poured down a whole bottle of beer in a row with astonishing momentum.

The white hops of the beer are billowing like ocean waves.

The cold liquid slipped from the corner of his lips, Ji Yanli gently put the bottle on the table, and looked at Xi Ye with blurred eyes.

Xi Ye flicked open his own bottle cap in the same way, frowned and said, "What the hell, do I still want to drink with you? What am I? A bottle opener?"

Ji Yanli casually wiped the wine from the corner of his mouth, and reached out to press the mouth of his wine bottle seriously: "Xi Ye, you can't drink."

"why?"

"Because you are underage."

"You're underage too!" Xi Ye said unhappily.

"I'm almost there, I'm already an adult." Ji Yanli shook a finger to correct him, "I ordered, and both bottles are mine. Aren't you a treat, why are you so stingy?"

Xi Ye: "Huh?"

Ji Yanli snatched his beer bottle fiercely, then raised his head to his mouth and started blowing on the bottle.

"Hey, you're scaring me a little." Xi Ye frowned, stood up on the table, and raised his hand to press down the bottom of his bottle, "Stop drinking, take your time, how can you drink like this... Senior!"

Ji Yanli let go of his hand, and Xi Ye snatched the wine bottle back. The moment the wine bottle was pressed down, beer splashed out and splashed on his face. Ji Yanli squinted his eyes and stretched out his hands to fumble paper on the table. Xi Ye apologized He grabbed a piece of paper and wiped his face.

"Now I know the benefits of lenses." Ji Yanli was not angry when Xi Ye wiped his face, but instead laughed, "Oh, if there are lenses, I won't spill them in my eyes."

"What's the matter with you?" Xi Ye had to follow his usual temper, and when he encountered such out-of-the-ordinary stupid behavior, he would have left the table long ago, but he couldn't laugh or cry to Ji Yanli, "You drink so well?"

"Okay, very good, I've never been drunk before."

"Can't you see?" Xi Ye asked strangely.

Omega's drinking capacity is generally very poor, this is determined by genes, it has nothing to do with Ji Yanli's hard work or not, just like Ji Yanli's hard work for many years, but after differentiation, he failed to grow a millimeter taller.

"You can't see it," Ji Yanli laughed, tilting his head to look at him, with a drawn-out tone, "I've never been drunk...it's because...I've never been drunk."

Xi Ye: "..."

Xi Ye: "Are you here to tell me a bad joke?"

Xi Ye: "Okay, you talk, continue."

It was only later that Xi Ye found out that Ji Yanli's capacity for alcohol is not good enough, he just poured down a glass and a bottle of beer, the senior he thought was no longer the senior he thought...

The dishes came up in piles, Xi Ye still ordered dishes with the attitude of whether he could eat them or not, he would order one anyway, the table between him was quickly filled with pots of red oily dishes up.

It smells like a pungent spicy smell, spicy and spicy. The smell floats in from the nose, and a thin layer of sweat emerges from the back.

Ji Yanli picked up a bunch of potato chips dripping with spicy oil: "Recently, there have been a lot of incidents. The milk tea shop I worked part-time would sell rotten fruits as smoothies. Fortunately, they are not a steamed stuffed bun shop. Or else it’s the real version of Sun Erniang Pedestrian Street selling human flesh... By the way, the store manager’s surname is Sun, what’s going on with the Sun family? Is the ancestral black shop written into the genes?”

Xi Ye: "..."

Ji Yanli took a big bite of the potato: "What are you talking about... cough cough cough cough cough!"

Ji Yanli covered his mouth and let out an earth-shattering cough. Xi Ye looked at him in shock. There was no water at hand, so he had to give him the beer bottle. Ji Yanli grabbed the beer bottle and drank it again.

"It's too spicy! This is also a black shop! This is murder!" Ji Yanli dropped the potato chips, biting his tongue, the tip of his little soft tongue was red from the heat.

Xi Ye looked at him with his chin in his hand: "You want it yourself. It's spicy, the kind that makes people dizzy. I specifically told the boss that if it's not spicy, you won't be paid."

Ji Yanli bit the tip of his tongue, looked at him blankly, his fair cheeks were flushed from the heat, and said vaguely, "What should I do? Do you think it's spicy?"

"I think you're quite hot." Xi Ye said with a half-smile.

Ji Yanli grunted and licked his lips: "I'm still drinking, I haven't finished talking. Hiss—" He took a light breath, "Actually, I hold a grudge, do you know that?"

"can not tell."

"Yihe was very skinny when she was a child," Ji Yanli rubbed her temples, "She used to always call me 'big idiot' or 'hey', and no one listened to what my parents said, but then suddenly changed from someday, I once thought it was my brother's charisma that conquered her. Later, I found out that it was my self-confidence that went too far."

Xi Ye: "..."

Ji Yanli took another sip of beer: "This is life experience, don't feel too good about yourself..."

He frowned and looked at the bottle, and said loudly: "Is there no prescription? Is it the same brand as the inhibitor? Why are you so virtuous? I'm almost full, and I'm not drunk at all!"

Xi Ye: "Senior, you are drunk."

"I'm sober." Ji Yanli worked hard, "Now I can make you a paper to prove that I'm sober...in fact, I brought it."

"what?"

Ji Yanli took out a small piece of paper from his pocket, with a few data scrawled on it, and a diagram of the intersection of a hyperbola and an ellipse, "I didn't think of this question, I brought it here, and I will do it for you on the spot ...Look, can you do it?"

Ji Yanli lifted his chin lightly, and looked at him brightly, with a little pride and complacency in that look.

Xi Ye actually liked his appearance a little bit, and admitted in a low voice: "I can't do it."

Ji Yanli opened the note and thought carefully, Xi Ye sat opposite him and ate slowly, Ji Yanli thought for a long time, but it was difficult to solve the conic curve problem without writing, he took the chopsticks on the table bit by bit, as if he wanted to Make a draft with chili oil.

"Don't do it!" Ji Yanli suddenly rolled up the paper and threw it on the table, and said in a loud voice, "I hate studying."

Xi Ye held the corn in his mouth: "..."

Xi Ye: "That's a good relationship, we have one more topic in common."

"Really, it's hard for you to understand how those math books are written." Ji Yanli was extremely indignant, "I will tell you theorem one, two and three first, and then give you a very obvious example problem. You can solve it by putting the theorem into it. Then he said it's time for you to do the questions, and you'll come up with [-] questions, and the solution to each question should be at least half a page!"

Xi Ye smirked.

Ji Yanli drank the second bottle of wine, and pushed the empty beer bottle aside: "I shouldn't take the recommendation test, do they think I will be unhappy if I lose the interview, but I'm actually happy, you think, what if They asked me to solve the problem on the spot, but I couldn't solve it, what should I do? Eat the problem? I'd rather drink this pot of spicy oil!"

Ji Yanli proudly reached out to grab the spicy oil dish.

"Hey hey don't," Xi Ye blocked his hand, stared into his eyes, then let go, "You drink, drink more, please."

"Think I'm stupid." Ji Yanli held his hand and looked at him vigilantly, "Xi Xiaoye, you have no conscience. I don't want to drink."

"Xi Xiaoye is...fuck." Xi Ye said disgusted, but he was a little happy, "Is that what you usually call me in your heart?"

"No," Ji Yanli shook his head, "I call you a little rebel."

Xi Ye: "...Don't be so fucking honest."

Ji Yanli turned back to the boss and said, "A bottle of beer, thank you."

"My original name was Xi Anye." Xi Ye said suddenly, "Do you also think I should have a character in the middle? My mother named me Xi Anye. After she died, I changed my name."

"why?"

"No reason." Xi Ye shrugged, chomping on a string of red hot mutton skewers.

The clerk brought over the beer, and Ji Yanli handed it to him naturally: "Here, open it."

"Do you really think of me as a bottle opener?" Xi Ye grabbed the beer bottle and put it under his feet, "Don't open it, don't drink it, you really can't drink."

When Xi Ye looked up, he found that the senior was gone.

Xi Ye: "???"

Xi Ye lowered his head and saw Ji Yanli crouching under the table, struggling to touch his ankle... the bottle of beer next to him.

"What are you doing?" Xi Ye picked up the wine bottle, lowered his head and looked at Ji Yanli who was squatting with his knees hugged, "Why are you still stealing wine?! Senior, you have to respect yourself!"

Ji Yanli had no choice but to climb back to his seat, resting his head on his slender fingers, and sighed leisurely. At that moment, the noisy sounds around him fell silent, as if the dust lifted by a heavy object slowly fell to the ground.

Ji Yanli said softly: "No way, the book is full of lies. I still remember everything after drinking."

Ji Yanli's eyelashes drooped, and Xi Ye's heart sank with a thud.

Ji Yanli laughed again, her smile was like a warm spring rain: "It's still my mother who is amazing, she never touches alcohol, but she said she doesn't remember me, so she doesn't remember me. I just introduced Yihe to her enough I'm too lazy to introduce myself to her, so why don't I just make up something to lie to her? Say that I'm actually pregnant before I'm married... What a loss."

Ji Yanli was so amused by his own thoughts that he rubbed his stomach with his knuckles between his brows and laughed.

Xi Ye couldn't laugh, he called, "Senior?"

Ji Yanli patted his hand: "My dad is the real charisma... You have been gone for seven years, and mom will still remember you. How could this be? I thought I still had a very important place in mom's heart of!"

"Comrade Ji Zhishu, I saw you in my mother's diary. Seven years ago, she said that her greatest wish was to die, so that she could go to you. Later, she felt that for me and Yihe, she could force more After living for a few years, although she is in pain every minute and every second of her life, she plans to live until Yihe becomes an adult, and then die, so she feels that she is worthy of her child, herself, and you."

A long broken light bulb kept flickering above Ji Yanli's head, bright and dark.

"I never knew that Yihe and I were forcing her to live. I always thought she wanted to fight against the disease! In fact, my mother didn't want to fight at all. She fought for us and lived for us. I also once I advised her to do what she likes, but I didn't expect her to like to die."

"Give me the wine, Xi Ye," Ji Yanli pulled his sleeve and smiled, "I want to toast my father and his great personality, which can make my mother feel that there is nothing in this world that can compare with him."

The hot white mist of Mala Tang floats in the air, the spicy aroma of the food blows through with the hot wind of the air conditioner, the surrounding is bustling with people, and other tables are full of guests, talking and laughing loudly and toasting loudly, the glasses collide The crisp sound was endless, and the clerk shuttled back and forth in the aisle carrying wine and rags.

Xi Ye silently raised his hand to pop off the bottle cap, and handed it to him: "Drink slowly."

Ji Yanli took it, propped his chin with one hand, closed his eyes, and poured down his mouth. The beer rolled into a white vortex in the bottle and slapped the green bottom of the bottle.

Ji Yanli choked suddenly, Xi Ye reached out to hold the wine bottle, Ji Yanli covered his mouth and coughed hard, then suddenly pushed the table away and ran outside.

"Senior?" Xi Ye stood up in a panic, took out some money from his pocket, threw it on the table, and hurriedly chased him out.

Ji Yanli's stomach turned violently, and he rushed out of the store. The cold wind hit his face. He staggered and rushed to a street lamp, squatted down while supporting the street lamp, and then vomited.

The pungent wine mixed with stomach acid rushed out of the mouth and nasal cavity, irritating people's eyes sour. He didn't eat anything before, and he just spit out a puddle of wine, choking and coughing again and again, as if a hand had Clutching his stomach, there are dots of blooming flowers in front of his eyes.

Xi Ye knelt down and wiped his mouth with his sleeve. Ji Yanli mumbled that he was dirty and wanted to push him away, but Xi Ye grabbed the back of his neck and grabbed him back to continue wiping.

Ji Yanli was finally let go by him. He stared down at his sleeve and smiled embarrassedly: "I'm sorry for getting you dirty. It seems that I don't drink much, right? Actually, I lied to you. It was my first time drinking."

"When I can't see it?" Xi Ye covered his stomach with his palms, afraid that he would hurt, and even felt the shape of his ribs through the dove gray padded jacket.

He was not so thin during the sports meeting.

It's only been two months.

Ji Yanli supported his knees, slowed down for a while, could hardly stand up, then raised his head and smiled at him, the warm light of the street lamp shone in his light-colored pupils: "Why are you looking at me like this? Don't be bitter and hateful, like me It's like a rare animal that is about to become extinct... Come on, smile."

Xi Ye suddenly stretched out his hand and cupped his face with both hands, Ji Yanli was taken aback and didn't move away.

"What's wrong?" Ji Yanli's chin was lifted up, and his cheeks were warmed by Xi Ye's hands, like a drowning person being lifted into the water.

"Is there something on my face? If there is, let's go. I'll just go home and wash it off. It's fine."

Layers of snow were swirling under the dim street lights, Ji Yanli's fair face became hot and soft from drinking, his eyes were still clear after being so drunk, as if filled with a pool of water.

"Ji Yanli, stop laughing," Xi Ye said in a low voice, "You laugh so hard that I feel uncomfortable."

Ji Yanli thought that there is nothing wrong with this, and nothing serious happened. He really just wanted to drink and talk, otherwise who would he tell?

Ji Yihe ignored him, and Xie Anzhi didn't remember anything.

He just wanted to have a drink with his father. Ji Zhishu had never had a drink with his son in his life.

Ji Yanli stared at him intently, when cold snow fell into his eyes, causing his eyelashes to flicker, he lowered his eyelids, and said softly, "Xi Ye..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, tears burst out suddenly.

Tears ran warmly across his cheeks and fell straight into Xi Ye's palm.
