bite

Lin Yuanye walked to the handrail of the corridor on the second floor, poked his head out from there and shouted, "Come on, the toilet is available."

The two people downstairs heard the voice and raised their heads to look at him at the same time.After realizing that the person who spoke was Lin Yuanye, Babyface backed away from the stairs to make way for the worker in front of him.

The other party walked up the steps and turned straight towards the toilet at the end.Lin Yuanye stood by the corridor without moving, and said narrowly to the baby face downstairs: "You don't go to work, what do you want to do secretly guarding downstairs?"

The latter laughed a little embarrassedly, and explained in a subtle tone: "Didn't I just watch you and Brother Cheng go upstairs?"

Lin Yuanye snorted and laughed, then turned to the man standing by the wall and asked, "Have you finished your cigarette?"

Cheng Liao hummed in a low voice, "It's over."

"Then go down." Lin Yuanye walked back from the handrail and walked towards the stairs first.

After taking two steps, he turned around and waited for Cheng Liao.Seeing the other party following behind him in a gentle pace, Lin Yuanye stood still on the stairs, his eyes swept over his slender fingertips that naturally hung by his side.

When the man got down to his own stairs, Lin Yuanye couldn't help but grabbed his fingers and took a look.

"What are you looking at?" Cheng Liao asked quietly, letting him hold his hand and fiddle with it.

"Look at your nails." Lin Yuanye replied.

The other party's nails were neatly trimmed, with no trace of yellowing on them.Lin Yuanye let go of his fingers in satisfaction, and then explained: "I see that many people who smoke have yellow nails, but you don't."

"I don't smoke much." Cheng Liao looked back from his face and said.

Lin Yuanye nodded in agreement, and asked casually, "When did you start smoking?"

"A few years ago." Cheng Liao seemed to recall for a moment, "I don't remember clearly."

"Why did you want to smoke at that time?" Lin Yuanye looked up at him and asked.

The other party's answer seemed to be unexpected, but at the same time, it seemed completely expected, "Decompression." Cheng Liao paused slightly, "The daily working hours are too long, and cigarettes can relieve the fatigue caused by work."

In Lin Yuanye's eyes looking at him, complex and unspeakable emotions gradually emerged.Cheng Liao's slightly rough palms did seem to be caused by long hours of physical work.

Instead of continuing this unpleasant topic, Lin Yuanye turned his head and accelerated his pace down the stairs.

Babyface was still standing downstairs and did not leave, as if waiting for Cheng Liao to leave together.Lin Yuanye followed them back to the construction area, Cheng Liao went to get the safety helmet from the low shed opposite, Babyface stayed there waiting for him, Lin Yuanye did not turn around and leave first, but chatted casually with Babyface stand up.

He asked about the location of the other party's hometown and the time when he came to work here, and learned that Babyface's hometown lived in the next mountain, and the time to work on the construction site was about the same as when he came to town, Lin Yuanye nodded thoughtfully, "Did you and Cheng Liao know each other then?"

Babyface heard the words, but showed a slightly surprised expression, "No." He denied Lin Yuanye's deduction, "Brother Cheng came here two months ago."

Lin Yuanye was startled unexpectedly, "Two months ago?"

The baby face nodded firmly: "That's right, it was two months ago."

Lin Yuanye didn't speak for two seconds, and a strange emotion welled up in his heart, but he couldn't say for the time being, what was the strangeness.

After all, at the moment when he heard the answer from the other party, the most entangled thought in his mind was how much he knew about Cheng Liao so far.

The private conversation between the other party and Yu Xi not only ended like a page turning in his heart, but also left an insignificant mark in his heart that could not be ignored.

He finally realized belatedly that in the short period of a month or so he had known each other, apart from what he had learned about the other person's work and personality from his interactions with Cheng Liao, there was also a lot about the man's past experience and family background. , all ignorant of themselves.

And vice versa, Cheng Liao also didn't know any of his background and background, and the other party never asked about it, as if he was indifferent to these things related to him.

I can't express how I feel in my heart, but at least in this love relationship that he has devoted himself to, Lin Yuanye doesn't want to see again, there are other people standing in front of Cheng Liao at a time and place that he has never participated in before, calling A name I've never heard of.

The sense of trust bred in love is important, but when this kind of thing happens more often, Lin Yuanye can't help but wonder whether what he sees and hears now still exists .

He felt he needed to do something.

Lin Yuanye is not a person who only knows how to take. Before getting what he wants, he is willing to give the other party the information of equal value.

Before Cheng Liao got his helmet and came back, Lin Yuanye put away the thoughts that had arisen in his mind, turned around and left as if nothing had happened.

When the evening was approaching the end of get off work, several co-workers who had dinner together on weekdays discussed going to a night snack shop to have barbecue at night.After they inquired, they found out that it turned out that a young worker was celebrating his birthday.

The other party not only called Cheng Liao and Babyface, but even warmly invited Lin Yuanye to go with them.Lin Yuanye and Cheng Liao left the construction site first, went to the cake shop in the town to buy a birthday cake, and then went to the barbecue shop to meet other people.

The two arrived at the barbecue restaurant around eight o'clock, and everyone else had already waited in advance and ordered drinks and barbecue orders.Lin Yuanye gave the cake to today's birthday star, and sat down with Cheng Liao in the empty seat beside the table.

When the workers were busy cutting the cake, Lin Yuanye turned to look at the baby face and asked casually, "When did you arrive?"

"It was only 10 minutes ago," Babyface said.

Lin Yuanye nodded, and when he was about to say something, he was interrupted by the cake handed over by others.After saying thank you, he stretched out his hand to take the two plates of cakes from the other party, and placed them in front of himself and Cheng Liao respectively.

The cakes made in the cake shop in the town were not as good in taste and texture as the ones he had eaten in the past. Lin Yuanye picked up the fork next to the dinner plate, took two symbolic bites, then put down the fork and stopped moving.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the baby face on the left who was eating very seriously, Lin Yuanye couldn't help but bowed his head in his direction, and asked him in a leisurely tone, "Is it delicious?"

Babyface raised his head amidst his questioning, and replied in a low voice, "It's not as good as the dessert in the bar last time."

Seeing this, Lin Yuanye raised his eyebrows noncommittally, and then turned his eyes to the wine placed in the middle of the table.Then it was discovered that the wine they ordered was white wine mixed with beer, and most of them seemed to be white wine.

He didn't know much about liquor, and he didn't drink much on weekdays.Seeing it at a barbecue restaurant now, I couldn't help but pick up the wine bottle and take a look at it.

His fingertips lightly brushed the place where the Chinese was pasted on the wine bottle, Lin Yuanye raised his eyes with little interest, and wanted to put the bottle of liquor back in his hand, but he heard the baby face asking beside him: "Brother Lin, what do you want?" Do you drink white?"

The movement of his hands stopped, and after thinking for a second, Lin Yuanye shook his head with the bottle of white wine, "I like to drink wine."

"Foreign wine is also delicious." Recalling the wine he drank in the bar, the eyes of the baby face lit up obviously, but soon, he frowned obviously distressed, "It's just that the name of the wine is too difficult to remember, the wine I can’t read the English sticker on the bottle either.”

Hearing this, Lin Yuanye's gaze, which had been carelessly falling on the wine bottle, suddenly stopped at the end of his voice.

The next second, as if he suddenly remembered something, he turned his head and looked at Cheng Liao who was sitting beside him.If I remember correctly, during the fight in the bar half a month ago, Cheng Liao not only understood the English name of the whiskey, he even understood the place of origin written in English on the bottle.

Facing Cheng Liao's indifferent gaze, Lin Yuanye asked straightforwardly and frankly: "In the bar half a month ago, how did you know that the bottle of wine was imported whiskey?"

The emotion on Cheng Liao's face paused slightly.

He really did not expect that Lin Yuanye would still remember what happened half a month ago.But since he brought it up, Cheng Liao has no intention of hiding it.

Although Lin Yuanye discovered the flaw much sooner than he had planned, Cheng Liao did not dislike the current development and trend, and did not even mind adding more fuel to the fire.

"I do understand." He replied in a low tone.

After the man finished speaking, he stopped talking.He looked at Lin Yuanye's face without moving his brows and eyes, without any fluctuations or concealment of emotion in his eyes, as if he was waiting for Lin Yuanye to ask questions.

The emotion in Lin Yuanye's eyes changed subtly, but he only had time to utter one syllable: "You—"

Before he could finish his sentence, the baby face next to him volunteered to take the bait, and explained for Cheng Liao with sincerity and kindness: "Actually, we have done our homework in advance."

Meeting Lin Yuanye's eyes filled with doubt and astonishment, the baby face touched the tip of his nose a little embarrassedly, "On the day of the European Cup final, we went to the bar in the town for the first time. I was worried that I would not understand the wine list. English, so I checked the translation on my phone in advance.”

After a brief moment of silence, Lin Yuanye accepted his explanation with a complicated mood.

Having successfully completed the task for Cheng Liao, the baby couldn't help showing a brisk smile on her face, looking up at Cheng Liao with a little pride.

However, Cheng Liao's black eyes narrowed slightly, staring at him for a long time with deep meaning, without saying a word.

The smile on his face gradually disappeared, and the baby face looked back at him with a confused and innocent expression.
