Yu Liangmu

You Liangmu fled in a panic, forgetting even the little broken car that fell to the side.

He thought he could slip away as soon as he slipped, just like a loach in the water.Unexpectedly, Tang Yungan only needed a few words to stop him again.

"Ayu."

Sure enough, obedience to creditors is instinctive, and You Liangmu didn't run a few steps at all. Hearing this, he had no choice but to turn back in despair.

He turned to Tang Yunqian, waiting to be dispatched as if he was courteous, "Hey, Brother Gan, what else can I do?"

Tang Yunqian stood in the night, his expression was not very clear, and there were faint waves of movement.He seemed to mention casually: "Let's meet next weekend."

"Ah?" You Liangmu was terrified.

"No time to?"

"No," You Liangmu hesitated, "Brother Gan, is there anything you want me to do? Just say it."

Tang Yunqian said normally, "There's nothing for you to do, just have a meal together."

"Eat?" You Liangmu muttered in a low voice, "Didn't you just eat it...why did you eat it again?"

He couldn't think of the reason why Tang Yunqian always wanted to have dinner with him. It wasn't because his cooking tasted better, and it was better to watch him eat, right?

Don't be a cannon. You are a fan friend?

But now it is difficult for him to be alone with Tang Yunqian calmly. He can't learn Tang Yungan's calmness, and he can't show his indifferent attitude. If he spends more than a minute with Tang Yungan, he will be in danger of revealing his secrets.

He couldn't let Tang Yunqian see that he still had that kind of thought.Even if you want to be a toad, you have to be a toad that knows how to hide yourself.

I didn't want to agree to agree, but You Liangmu didn't dare to refuse outright, he grabbed the corner of his clothes and didn't speak for a long time.

Until Tang Yunqian's patience was exhausted, he asked again: "So, shall we go?"

You Liangmu said softly, "No... I don't think I'll be free, Brother Gan, you'd better find someone else."

The man's articulation is not articulate, and his head is also dull. He doesn't know the skills of rejecting people, and he always says "no" clumsily, in a slow tone, but always with a kind of determination that even Tang Yunqian can't stand him.

He has rejected Tang Yunqian three times tonight. It may be because he is so ignorant that he always makes the well-educated creditor angry.

Getting angry is bad and harmful to the body, You Liangmu persuaded in a low voice, "Brother Gan, don't be upset over such a trivial matter, it's just a meal... Or, find someone else to accompany you to eat?"

After saying this, he didn't get a response, so he couldn't help but bury his head deeply, not daring to look at Tang Yunqian's face anymore.

He could imagine how terrifying that was, even if it was a handsome and extraordinary face, in his eyes at this moment, it would turn into a terrifying Yan Luo.

After a long silence, Tang Yunqian said in a tone that was neither too good nor too bad, "Forget it, no one is forcing you."

The man ignored You Liangmu, got into the car and closed the door.

Seeing this, Feng Gang, who had been waiting quietly, was a little anxious for them, and silently glanced at You Liangmu, hesitant to speak.

But the boss was by his side. As a subordinate, he really couldn't talk too much, so he could only keep his mouth shut, got in the driver's seat, and drove Tang Yunqian away.

You Liangmu was absent-minded for a long while, his face was covered with dust from the wheels. Finally, he turned around silently, picked up the broken bicycle, and walked towards home.

*

The time is wobbling until the end of the month, the direct sunlight point has long been in the southern hemisphere, but the weather is still a bit hot, the sun is high and hanging in the sky, forcing people on the road of irritability.

You Liangmu worked diligently, worked hard to save money and pay off debts, took care of his sick grandmother, and helped his troubled uncle at any time, so he was too busy to find his way.

But it doesn't matter if you are a little tired, he knows that there are many people in this world who are much more tired than him, so he really shouldn't complain too much.

At noon that day, You Liangmu had just delivered the last takeaway in the box, and happened to be passing by Tang Yunqian's company, and ran into a person by accident.

This person, You Liangmu has known him for more than [-] years, and almost grew up together. They are fellow villagers and old acquaintances, but only...

Not old friends.

"You Liangmu."

The other party called him, and he stared blankly for several minutes before he recognized who the other party was.

You Liangmu froze in place.

Seeing that he hadn't spoken for a long time, the man said jokingly, "We haven't seen each other for many years, but you can't forget me, right? Fortunately, I still remember you."

"..."

"Hey, I really don't remember? We've known each other for more than ten years, not to mention 20 years? I don't believe you really want to pretend you don't know me."

"Uh, Cheng Kai."

In a person's life, short or long, he will always meet a few people who will never forget him until his death.

For You Liangmu, Cheng Kai is one of them.

Cheng Kai is the son of the former mayor of his hometown. Back then, relying on his father's relationship, he robbed You Liangmu of a place and scholarship to go to a high school in the city, and finally got admitted to a prestigious university.

So, this person, even if You Liangmu forgot himself, he would never forget him.

Cheng Kai calmed down his ups and downs, "Long time no see..."

You Liangmu was dumbfounded for a few seconds, seeing that he was wearing a suit and leather shoes, "Are you working nearby?"

"Well," Cheng Kai took out a business card and handed it to him with both hands.

You Liangmu took it and looked at it. He was the deputy financial director, and the company was called "ZL Group".

The name sounded familiar. He looked up and looked at the roof of Tang Yunqian's company building. The two big characters "ZL" were inlaid on it, which was so conspicuous and complemented the shiny and reflective glass exterior wall.

"Ah...the world is so small," You Liangmu sighed.

And he didn't need to introduce his job, the takeaway clothes that were as yellow as a banana already explained everything.

Cheng Kai was a little nervous, and loosened the tie around his neck, "I didn't expect to meet you here, let's, let's get together sometime."

"This..." You Liangmu scratched the tip of his nose.

In fact, he wanted to turn around and leave.

Cheng Kai seemed to have a sudden inspiration, and suggested: "How about today, have you eaten yet? Probably not? Let's go together."

Yu Liangmu scratched his head.

Why is everyone looking for him for dinner recently?But the two people who wanted to eat with him... Uh, he didn't want to deal with it.

One is unable to face it, and the other is unwilling to deal with it.

Cheng Kai was still trying to persuade, "There is a nice restaurant nearby, and the first dish there is delicious, let's try it? If you don't want to, let's find a place and have a drink together."

The man's eagerness and excitement floated on his face, and he spat out a series of words. His plump almond eyes glowed when he saw You Liangmu, which did not match his professional appearance.

You Liangmu couldn't catch up at all.

He wanted to say that he was not free, and he planned to take more takeaway orders and give them away while the lunch time was not over.

However, the other party was very interested and did not give him a chance to refuse, so he took him to a nearby restaurant.

The restaurant is a good restaurant, and the two of them sat facing each other, blocking the noise of cars and people outside the window.

There were some good dishes on the table, obviously Cheng Kai ordered them carefully, first he put some meat for You Liangmu, then poured tea and soup for You Liangmu.

"You can eat this meal freely, I'll treat you." He said happily, "If you don't have enough, order more."

You Liangmu had no appetite, "Enough is enough, hey...you don't have to be so polite."

Cheng Kai seemed to have a lot of emotion, "I didn't expect to meet you after so many years... I worked hard in a big city by myself, and I didn't have many acquaintances. Now I finally met someone——"

Judging by the shape of his mouth, he obviously wanted to say "friend", but he really had no face to say these two words to You Liangmu.

Cheng Kai silently closed his mouth, and when he opened it again, he forced himself to change his words, "Finally met a fellow townsman... I have a feeling of intimacy, and I want to treat you to a meal and catch up on the old days."

You Liangmu raised his hand slightly to block the fish belly that the other party wanted to pile on his rice bowl, "I can do it myself."

Cheng Kai put down his chopsticks, and watched him eat so intently, with no distractions, as if his eyes were sticky glue.

So much so that You Liangmu was numb all over, and felt that he had become an exhibit.

He didn't know what to say, so he pointed at the dish in front of him with embarrassment, "Uh...don't you want to eat? It's getting cold."

"eat."

Cheng Kai seemed to listen to You Liangmu very much. Hearing this, he immediately grabbed his chopsticks and took two mouthfuls of rice.

When the man was eating, he still kept staring at You Liangmu, his eyes were even a little hot.

You Liangmu was very uncomfortable, the hand holding the chopsticks stopped in mid-air, and put the chicken leg meat that was about to be put into his mouth back into the bowl, and he couldn't eat anymore.

He almost thought he had dirt on his face, or the winning numbers for the next lottery.

Cheng Kai asked while eating: "How have you been doing these years?"

You Liangmu replied casually: "It's so so..."

"Are you married yet?"

"Nope."

"Then...are you talking about someone?"

"Not yet."

After being separated for many years, You Liangmu still has the same feeling of looking at Cheng Kai when he looked at Cheng Kai.

Even though the other party has faded away from his youthful youth, wearing a suit and tie, and waxing his hair, he looks like a social elite, but in You Liangmu's eyes, the impression of him as a devil in the world is still lingering.

During the meal, Cheng Kai picked up a few topics from time to time, and chatted with You Liangmu about everything. He could talk for a long time even if he didn't get along with him, and he was especially good at talking nonsense.

It's just that You Liangmu gave perfunctory answers to the questions he asked, and he didn't have any desire to chat with him.

Cheng Kai sensed the alienation of the other party, even though he had already acted very warmly and tried his best to pretend to be an acquaintance of You Liangmu, but there was still a slight embarrassment pervading between the two of them, pervasive.

Cheng Kai knew the reason, and You Liangmu knew it too, neither of them mentioned it, and they all thought about it in their hearts.

In the end, it was Cheng Kai who couldn't hold back, and asked You Liangmu first, "In your heart, do you still..."

"Well," You Liangmu took a bite of the ribs, chewed and chewed the meat, and after swallowing it thoroughly, he said, "I can't make it through."

He said looking at the ribs.

At this moment, Cheng Kai suddenly discovered that the other party didn't want to maintain the most basic social relationship with him at all, and he had already said everything with just a few words, not caring about being indecorous or embarrassing.

Because it takes time and effort to care about him, and You Liangmu no longer bothers to spend anything on him.

Just really, don't care.

Cheng Kai forced a smile on his face, "I'm not surprised when you say that."

You Liangmu was still gnawing on the ribs.

Cheng Kai picked up a few more dollars for him, "I know, you have always blamed me in your heart."

"Hey...it's normal to complain about you. If I say no, you'll think it's fake." You Liangmu was so direct, with only a few words, without any sympathy.

Because he couldn't pretend to be stupid, to pretend that he didn't blame the past.

"I know you blame me, and I also know that you can't treat me as a friend..." Cheng Kai looked deeply at You Liangmu, and suddenly said something strangely worded, "Then You Liangmu, do you hate me?"

You Liangmu rested his hands on the table and stared at him without speaking.

Immediately, Cheng Kai felt that it was difficult to face this atmosphere directly, his chest was stuffy, so he could only squeeze and smile: "Hey, of course, it might be a little bit... that's all..."

"Hate, why don't you hate?" You Liangmu suddenly ended his silence, and said with a smile, without hesitation, "...you stole my things."

He doesn't look like he's joking.

Cheng Kai was stunned.

Probably from just now to now, although You Liangmu's words are not pleasant, they can barely be regarded as kind, unlike now, he restrained his temper and directly expressed the grievances in his heart.

Cheng Kai was obviously shocked by the understatement of "hate", but he knew that he should accept the result unconditionally, just like a criminal who has closed his coffin and cannot raise a defense.

When You Liangmu said this, he still forced a smile again, "I used to think that you have a good temper."

You Liangmu also laughed, slightly bitter, "It doesn't matter if you have a good temper or not."

"I……"

"Cheng Kai, I can't forgive you. Alas, after all these years, I still can't."

In this world, not everything can be forgiven.Because it is tiring to be a tolerant person, and it is even more tiring to be a person who pretends to be tolerant.

You Liangmu thinks that he doesn't need to have a good relationship with Cheng Kai, nor does he need to have a positive personal image, so it doesn't matter even if he tells the truth at this time and only speaks ugly words.

But he didn't go too far, he just vented his grievance with a few insignificant words, and didn't even utter a single swear word.

To be honest, he hated Cheng Kai to death.
