After we broke up, I still asked about your situation

Forced to repay the debt in the middle of the night, it was already daylight after the end, and Tong Shen was so sleepy that he slept until the afternoon.

Before he opened his eyes, he vaguely heard a voice beside him, and when he looked over, the voice stopped immediately.

Tu Jiazhi stroked his hair, as if he was afraid of disturbing anything, he lowered his voice and said to the phone: "I'll talk about it later."

Then hung up the phone and leaned over to hug him: "Are you hungry?"

Tong Shen wanted to laugh: "Why is the first question you ask me every time I get up is whether I'm hungry?"

"Because you always sleep late." Tu Jiazhi said, "I didn't even eat breakfast."

Tong Shen rolled his eyes: "Don't you know why I didn't eat breakfast?"

He struggled to sit up, turned sideways to let Tu Jiazhi put a pillow for himself, and glanced at the computer on Tu Jiazhi's lap. There were a bunch of inexplicable characters and terms in the document: "Working? Didn't you say that you are on annual leave? "

"Yeah." Tu Jiazhi put his hand on the back of his neck, pinching it intermittently, "You don't have to go to the company to work, but things have to be done. No one can replace my job."

"Hey, that's it." Tong Shen said with a smile, "After all, he is the president."

"Brother, don't tease me." Tu Jiazhi said modestly, "It's just a small workshop."

Tong Shen looked up to see if he was secretly happy, but saw that he didn't wear glasses on his face, and asked curiously: "Aren't you short-sighted? You don't wear glasses when you look at the computer?"

"I'm not short-sighted. The previous one was flat glasses." Tu Jiazhi said, "When I first started my business, I went out to solicit investment. Other partners said that my eyes were fierce and unfriendly, so they asked me to wear glasses to block them."

"Really, let me see." Tong Shen raised his body and pinched his face, looked around, and said, "It's quite fierce."

Tu Jiazhi immediately made an aggrieved expression: "I'm not aggressive in front of my brother."

Tong Shen snorted noncommittally, lay down again, waved his hands and said, "Go do your work, I'll lie down for a while, my back hurts."

In fact, he didn't really want to lie down, and he couldn't sleep anyway, but Tu Jiazhi obviously still had a lot of work to do, and if he moved a little, Tu Jiazhi would have to distract him, so he had to sacrifice himself.

Thinking of this, Tong Shen felt that he was really getting older and more and more understanding. If he had to let go of the past, he was so tossed by Tu Jiazhi the first day, and he must be moaning to find a sense of existence the next day.

About half an hour later, Tu Jiazhi turned off the computer, lifted the quilt and lifted Tong Shen up.

"What?" Tong Shen subconsciously raised his hand to hang around his neck.

"Eat." Tu Jiazhi walked outside with the man in his arms, "then take you home."

"...Ah?" Tong Shen was taken aback, "Which home do you want to go back to?"

"The one we lived in before." Tu Jiazhi glanced at him, "Why, you can't even find a home after six years away?"

"No..." Tong Shen was a little confused, "Is that house still liveable? It's been empty for six years."

Since Shu Bai was released from prison, they have moved out of the small villa to live with Shu Bai. Although Tong Shen didn't sell the house when he left later, the house has been basically vacated, and if it is vacant for another six years, they will not be able to live there immediately.

"I can live, I will occasionally go to live for a few days." Tu Jiazhi said, "Recently, I have been busy with work and haven't been there for a while, but I have asked the cleaning staff to go over and clean it in the morning."

"……Oh."

The house that had been vacated before, no need to ask why he took the time to go back to live.

Tong Shen felt guilty and bitter, he pursed his lips and did not speak again.

After eating, he suddenly thought of more important things, and said seriously: "I have to meet Shu Bai some time, and explain our matter clearly to him."

"Take him to dinner tonight." Tu Jiazhi had a calm expression on his face, "He just happens to be free today."

Tong Shen thought for a while, nodded, and said, "While you are on vacation, I will introduce you to my parents some other time."

Tu Jiazhi paused, and looked at him in disbelief: "How do you want to introduce me?"

"Introduce as you want." Tong Shen smiled and leaned into his ear, and said softly, "Boyfriend."

Involuntarily, Tu Jiazhi even held his breath for a moment.

But Tong Shen didn't know what to think of, he shook his head and said: "No, the status of boyfriend is not enough to attract their attention."

After a pause, he asked, "Why don't we get engaged?"

After finishing speaking, it seemed like a bit of a joke, Tong Shen rambled on to himself: "It may sound too casual, but it is really rare for my family to get together...Because it is my father's birthday, so my brother and my sister There may be two more days left, we have to hurry...the rings are too late to order, buy a pair first, and change to a better one later, there is no need to prepare for the banquet, after all, our situation is not suitable for big fanfare, so I am I think it's enough to let a few people in my family have a meal with Shu Bai, what do you think..."

He raised his head and was about to ask Tu Jiazhi's opinion, when he was caught off guard and pressed down by the dining table and kissed for a long time.

"You..." Tong Shen was choked and coughed twice, "Speak up if you have something to say, why did you attack me suddenly, you scared me..."

"I'm sorry, I couldn't hold back." Tu Jiazhi rubbed his face, "I'm so happy."

"Then you don't have any objection?" Tong Shen caressed the hair on the back of his head, sighed, "I'm sorry. After six years of walking, I should have made up for you first, and stayed with you for a while, before slowing down. Slow to discuss and plan these things, but the situation is really urgent... You should have seen my sister dragging me to chat yesterday, do you want to know what she said to me?"

"Urge you to get married." Tu Jiazhi buried him next to his neck, muffled, "I heard it all."

"Oh, poor little girl, don't be sad." Tong Shen was so soft-hearted, "Don't worry, I will definitely not get married... I mean, I will definitely not marry a girl. Isn't this hurting other girls... And I want to It's clear, anyway, I only like you, even if you don't forgive me for not wanting to be nice to me, I will definitely not marry anyone else."

Tu Jiazhi hugged him tightly: "Then will your parents accept it?"

"I have asked my second sister to help me be a lobbyist first." Tong Shen said, "It's okay even if you really can't accept it, just take it easy."

Tu Jiazhi was a little worried: "Although uncle is friendly, he has managed the company for so many years and has always been dictatorial and decisive. I'm afraid of you..."

"The dictatorship is in charge of the company, not the son." Tong Shen patted him on the back, "Don't worry, they have always spoiled me."

Tu Jiazhi opened his mouth, but stopped talking.

He wanted to say that it would be better if he kept it a secret for the rest of his life. Anyway, he didn't mind being sneaky, but when he thought that Tong Shen might be forced to marry by his family, he would go crazy. Open your mouth.

That night, Tong Shen took the initiative to call Shu Bai to invite him to his home, and then cooked a table of dishes by himself. Afraid that he would make something bad, he even specially invited a private chef to teach him, as an apology to Shu Bai Apologize.

Although Tu Jiazhi knew for a long time that he and Shu Bai were innocent, after all, after being jealous for so many years, he has become accustomed to comparing himself. A little sour.

Shu Bai was a few years older than Tong Shen, and it was six years since I saw him, but Tong Shen felt that he seemed younger than before.

When he was released from prison six years ago, Shu Bai still had a short cropped head that could almost show his scalp. Now his hair is longer and with a little care, he is a handsome uncle who makes girls flock to him wherever he puts it.

He still looks as gentle and jade-like as before, but his temperament is a little more mature and restrained, even if he is appreciated by the eyes of the same sex, he will find it charming.

Sitting at the dinner table, Tong Shen didn't have the nerve to directly mention the matter between himself and Tu Jiazhi, so he exchanged some pleasantries and asked Shu Bai when he planned to fall in love again.

Shu Bai and Tu Jiazhi looked at each other, and said with a helpless smile, "If you come back a year late, you may not even be able to catch up with my wedding."

Tong Shen was shocked: "Are you in a relationship?! When?!"

"It's been two years." Shu Bai said, "I've met my parents, and I'm planning to get married recently."

Tong Shen kicked Tu Jiazhi under the table: "Why don't you tell me!"

Tu Jiazhi rubbed his legs and whispered to his ears: "I'm too busy, I don't have time."

Shu Bai drank the soup with downcast eyes, pretending not to see the flirting between the two.

Tong Shen hurriedly pushed Tu Jiazhi away in shame, and faltered: "Then, then you..."

"You want to ask me if I still have feelings for Luo Wan?" Shu Bai put down the soup bowl and said calmly, "Although regrets are easy to hold, the past is past after all, and people still have to look forward."

After a pause of two seconds, he smiled slightly: "I went to Luo Wan's youngest daughter's birthday party in person."

"She gave birth to a second one?!" Tong Shen's eyes widened, "You went to see it?! Then her husband didn't make things difficult for you, did he? How is she doing?"

"Don't embarrass me, she's doing well." Shu Bai said, "Luo Wan looks weak on the surface, but in fact she has a strong temper, and she won't really swallow her anger and be bullied. Since she is willing to have a second child, it must be Because of happiness, you can rest assured."

Tong Shen breathed a sigh of relief, leaned back on the chair holding the teacup, and said "Oh" embarrassingly.

Shu Bai chuckled: "Why are you still unhappy?"

"No, it's just a little melancholy." Tong Shen said, "Things are different."

"Well, not bad." Tu Jiazhi nodded seriously, "It seems that you haven't made any progress in the past six years, at least you can use idioms."

Tong Shen kicked him again: "...damage or not, you?!"

Realizing that Shu Bai was looking at him, Tong Shen suddenly realized that this action was too intimate, and when he thought of what he was about to confess, he suddenly felt embarrassed.

"Cough, that." He sat up straight, put his hands on the table, his fingers were still holding the teacup tightly, and he didn't dare to look at the other side, "I, I have something to tell you."

"It's okay." Shu Bai passed a step very gently, "If it was about you and Xiao Jia, I would have known about it a long time ago."

"……what?"

Tong Shen felt that the number of times he was shocked today had almost comedic effect.

"When you just left, he frantically looked for you, I already guessed a little bit." Shu Bai said, "I asked later, and it turned out to be the case."

"..." Tong Shen stared at Tu Jiazhi in shame, and complained in a low voice, "Why didn't you even tell me this..."

"He's teasing you on purpose." Shu Bai looked at the two people opposite, and said with relief, "Jiajia is usually serious, and only when facing you will he have these childish attitudes."

"Then you..." Tong Shen buried his head and asked softly, "Don't you blame me?"

"How could I blame you? I blame myself for not being able to make it in time." Shu Bai sighed, "If I found out earlier, you might not have to miss six years."

Tong Shen opened his mouth, but before he could make a sound, Tu Jiazhi suddenly interrupted: "It's okay, it's fine to miss six years."

"..."

Tong took a deep breath and looked at him sideways in surprise.

"I thought about this matter for a long time last night, and now I've let it go, so you don't have to regret it." He held Tong Shen's hand under the table and said calmly, "I was also responsible for what happened back then—— I pushed him too hard. Without these six years, I might never have learned to think for him, and he would never be able to sort out his feelings. Even if he didn't leave, we would have conflicts sooner or later."

As he said that, it was rare for him to look at Shu Bai with very focused eyes, and said slowly: "Life is not afraid of regrets, as long as the ending is happy, isn't it?

"The misery of the past will be worn by time into a badge of remembrance.

"I will cherish the people I love even more because of the pain in the past."
