Lin Road

Chapter 2

The hour hand quietly approached ten o'clock, and the city entered the depths of the night.Looking down at the whole city, except for the bustling business district which is still bustling with red lights, green wine and wine, the lights of other areas have been turned off one after another to accumulate energy for a new day.

Lu Jinghua rubbed his temples, picked up the mug on the table, but found that there was no cold coffee left.He took off his glasses and got up to make another glass.

"Boss?" Hong Weiqi raised his haggard face from the computer, "Have you changed again?"

Hearing this, everyone who was busy around raised their heads, staring at Lu Jinghua with resentful eyes.

"No, I just want to get up and move around." Lu Jinghua quickly raised the mug in his hand to signal.

Before getting off work today, the company I cooperated with suddenly sent an email saying that the project would be adjusted.Originally, Lu Jinghua and the others had already drawn up the design plan, but the other party put forward a new request, and it was the day before the handover.In this case, if it is a large company, it will definitely fight for reason and ask for an extension of completion.However, this creative design company was just founded by Lu Jinghua and a few friends. It was the time when they needed business, so they had to choose to work overtime and revise the plan overnight.

"Kiki's Delivery Service!" Suddenly, there was a burst of fragrance, and everyone turned their heads to look at the door. The assistant to the general manager, Lin Jiaren, came in with bags.

"Wow - it's a midnight snack!"

"Sister Lin, you are my goddess."

"Is there any meat? Is there any meat?"

"I bought porridge. The ones in the white bag are sweet, the ones in the yellow bag are salty, and the red bag is the jujube cake that the boss gave you. Hurry up and eat it while it's hot."

Everyone swarmed around and took the food from Lin Jiaren's hands. No one could resist the temptation of late-night delicacies.

"Boss, try this porridge with preserved egg and lean meat." Lin Jiaren handed Lu Jinghua a cup, and took the mug from his hand, "Don't drink so much coffee, it's not good for your health, I'll make it for you Cup of tea."

"Thank you." The preserved egg and lean meat porridge in Lu Jinghua's hand continued to emit fragrance, which made people move their index fingers.

"Tsk tsk tsk, who bought this? It's delicious."

"That's it."

"I ate real beef in beef porridge."

"32 likes!"

Lu Jinghua took a sip and found that it was indeed delicious and suited his taste.There is no low-quality salty taste in general takeaways, and there is no fishy smell of preserved eggs and meat. The softness and hardness of the rice are just right, and there is a caring taste of home.

"Sister Jiaren, where did you buy it?" Hong Weiqi asked vaguely with a cup in one hand and jujube cake in his mouth.

"Across the street, there is a new porridge shop. There are quite a lot of varieties, and it focuses on health preservation." Lin Jiaren put the tea by Lu Jinghua's hand, and replied, "His shop also sells dim sum and the like. The price is also quite reasonable of."

"Is there a meal delivery service?" Sun Xiaobai, who is in charge of logistics, asked. If you work overtime in the future, you can order supper at their house.

"Yes, but it will take a few days. The boss said that it has just opened and is still recruiting people."

The sweet and salty taste dilutes the weakness and irritability caused by overtime work in the house, and the hot porridge warms the stomach and re-energizes.The people in the room were once again engaged in intense work.

Lu Jinghua sneakily stood by the window to exercise his muscles and bones. He looked down inadvertently and found that the shops on the opposite street were closed, but the dim yellow signboard of one shop flickered and gradually disappeared, and there was a faint figure coming from inside. leave.Lu Jinghua's office is on the tenth floor, so he can't see clearly the situation below, but he guessed that the porridge shop Lin Jia talked about was the last one to turn off the lights.

It tastes really good.Lu Jinghua thought, next time he passes by there, he must go in and have a look.

Lin Jingxian tidied up the things in the store, carefully closed the store door, and the neon lights of the "Congee Season" sign dimmed.

Tomorrow morning, I will interview a few college students who want to work part-time, and then try to open for a while in the afternoon. In the evening, I will discuss the porridge with Master Zhou. Lin Jingxian went through the next arrangement in his mind.Suddenly, the phone vibrated, and when I clicked on it, there was a message inside:

The task has been successfully completed, please rest assured, Chief~(_)

Lin Jingxian smiled slightly, and replied: Comrade, you have worked hard.

After putting away his mobile phone, he looked up at the building opposite. The whole building seemed to be asleep, only the first floor was lit, like a golden belt on his body.

"Good night." Lin Jingxian raised his head and said to the air, but he didn't know that a second before he raised his head, a figure had just left from the window.

On the road that was only illuminated by street lights, the lights of the cars ahead flickered, which quickly caught Lin Jingxian's attention.The window of the driver's seat was lowered, and a familiar face appeared in front of him. "Get in the car."

Lin Jingxian asked in surprise, "Jiang Shaofeng, why are you here?"

"Since you've returned to China, it's meaningless for me to stay there." Jiang Shaofeng shook his head, "Get in the car, I'll take you back."

Along the way, soothing light music was played in the carriage, and neither of them spoke.Jiang Shaofeng didn't ask him how to get there, he drove the car on his own, as if he was very familiar with Lin Jingxian's residence.Lin Jingxian didn't speak either, because he knew that finding his own place would be easy for Jiang Shaofeng.Sure enough, the car parked right downstairs.

"Won't you invite me to sit up for a while?" Jiang Shaofeng stopped the car, but he didn't unlock the car. Instead, he turned his head and stared at Lin Jingxian under the soft light inside the car.

"Next time." Lin Jingxian pulled the car door and found that it couldn't be opened. "It's quite messy, and nothing has been tidied up."

"Really." Jiang Shaofeng reached out to turn up the temperature of the air conditioner in the car, "Then sit with me in the car for a while."

Lin Jingxian turned his face sideways, and Jiang Shaofeng smiled at the corners of his eyes, looking at him with a harmless look.Lin Jingxian had to admit that a good-looking face can often minimize people's resentment, and Jiang Shaofeng is the best among them.He is of mixed race, with deep eye sockets, a high nose bridge, and sharp facial features, but his lips are slightly pouty, adding a touch of childishness.When his brown eyes look at you intently, the warmth inside seems to pour out.However, Lin Jingxian had seen this cruel face before, so at this time, he was not deceived by this perfect disguise.The person in front of him has never been a gentle and friendly master.

"It's late, you should go back early." Lin Jingxian looked away, took out his mobile phone and said, "I still have a lot of things to do tomorrow."

"Don't you ask me why I came to S City?" Jiang Shaofeng said, "Guess."

"Is it because of work?" Lin Jingxian knew that if he didn't follow him, he would definitely not be able to leave. "I remember that your family's business is mainly in City B."

"For the development of the family business, I came to S City to expand the territory. Or for someone, I came to a strange city alone regardless of everything." Jiang Shaofeng smiled, "Which reason do you think it is?"

Lin Jingxian avoided his scorching gaze, "It's really late today, let's talk another day. I'm going back."

This time, Jiang Shaofeng didn't say anything, just pressed the lock to open the car.

"Drive carefully." Lin Jingxian got out of the car and waved at him, "I'm going up."

"Jing Xian," Jiang Shaofeng stopped him after he turned around,

Lin Jingxian turned around and met his deep eyes.Jiang Shaofeng seemed to want to say something more, but he took it back when he got to his lips. "See you later."

After Lin Jingxian entered the corridor, Jiang Shaofeng took out his mobile phone, and there were more than a dozen missed calls on it, all of which belonged to his sister.

"Hey, Fengfeng, where are you now? What's going on? Xiao Liu who went to pick you up said you drove away by yourself?"

"I am busy."

"What can you do? You just got off the plane today, and you disappeared, and you didn't answer the phone. Do you know that I'm worried about you?"

"Sister, I'll go back later. Don't talk about it."

Before the other party could speak, Jiang Shaofeng hung up neatly, started the car and drove out.

Back home, Lin Jingxian turned on the floor lamp in the living room, and the warm orange light marked out a small area, but made the surrounding darkness even more silent.

Lin Jingxian went to the kitchen and poured himself a glass of boiled water. After drinking the water, he found that everything he could see was empty, and there was nothing there, including the cooking counter and the refrigerator.Going to the supermarket was added to tomorrow's itinerary.

Lin Jingxian slowly moved to the balcony again. The little things left by the previous owner grew very lushly. Although they were all plants that could not be named, they liked them very much when they first saw them, so they offered to stay and continue to raise them. with.There seems to be a small round table and a sofa on the balcony next door. Maybe the owner will sit there and read a book when the weather is fine.But now, the lights next door are dark, waiting for someone to come back alone, Lin Jingxian knows that its owner is still working overtime.Facing the same darkness, Lin Jingxian still stood on the balcony for a long time, looking at the corner of the balcony next door, imagining what the room would be like, and what kind of life the person in the room would live.

"Ayu." Lin Jingxian read the name lightly, sweetness and bitterness flashed across the tip of his tongue.

I heard that time will erase all pain, but there are also some wounds that can only be hidden in the bottom of my heart and pretend to be healed.

Everyone said that he was a demon, and even Lin Jingxian was surprised by his behavior when he looked back at that period of time.But Lin Jingxian knew that even if everything happened again, he would still not choose to change.Some traces, once printed, cannot be removed. With the power of time, they will only become clearer.Those beautiful memories, fortunately left a few words in the photo frame, retained the original color, and reminded him in countless moments of despair and collapse, not to forget how happy he was once.

This time, I don't know how many obstacles are still in the middle of the road.However, Lin Jingxian didn't care, he was just afraid that the man who regarded him as the only one no longer loved him.

The author has something to say:

Lin: Is this the rhythm of abuse?

Lian: It's not sweet yet~ Don't rush to follow the order... Hey, Xiao Lu, don't go, don't drag Lin Lin away when you go
