you restrain yourself

Duan Zhi really did what he said, and he didn't show up again for the next week. When Ji Yuan woke up, he found that Duan Zhi had left him and went back to school. wait for me."

Ji Shuyan squeezed juice beside him, pretending not to hear.

In the next few days, Duan Zhi didn't send him any messages, but sent him a photo when he arrived in Yundu with his classmates.

This photo was probably taken by someone else. Duan Zhi is standing under the signboard of a certain street, wearing a black baseball jacket, wearing a hat, and holding a mobile phone. I don’t know who he is chatting with. Next to him is a towering ginkgo tree with golden leaves. It fell and just brushed his shoulder.

"It's Yundu," Duan Zhi wrote, "the game will be played the day after tomorrow."

Like a person who travels far away, he habitually wants to report the safety of his family, and Ji Shuyan himself and Ji Yuan are the same way.

But what identities are he and Duan Zhi?

He looked at this photo for a long time, and after a while, he came back and said, "Play well."

After the words were sent out, he himself felt old-fashioned, like the head teacher was taking care of the students, full of formulas.

But after thinking about it, he was already many years older than Duan Zhi, so it was normal to be so rigid and boring.

For some reason, his mind sank slightly, he put away his phone, and turned back to the nearby coffee shop.

Zheng Wenbin had a friend who opened a coffee shop, and it was still in trial operation today, so he called a group of friends over to warm up the scene. Some of the people inside were Ji Shuyan's acquaintances, and most of them were unfamiliar.

He is not a social person, so he has been sitting next to Zheng Wenbin, listening to people chatting quietly, trying to minimize his presence.

However, with his appearance and temperament, it was difficult to ignore him. It didn't take long for someone to come over and ask for his phone number.

He was still absent-minded, didn't care at all, it was Zheng Wenbin who hugged him before he came back to his senses, "Huh?"

Zheng Wenbin pointed to his side, "Someone is talking to you."

Ji Shuyan turned his head and found an exquisite long-haired girl sitting next to him. Although he didn't know him, he had a little impression. He was also a friend of the coffee shop owner. During the greetings, he said that his name was Gu Yu, and he was the editor-in-chief of a certain magazine.

He nodded and said politely, "Hello."

The girl probably didn't expect him to be so confused, so she burst out laughing and said, "Hello."

She looked at Ji Shuyan. In this kind of occasion where everyone is familiar with him, Ji Shuyan seems out of place for being so quiet, but she has noticed this person since just now. He looks really pleasing to the eye, even if he is silent, Even if you don't smile, it's like a freehand landscape painting with splashed ink, which is good to put at home.

She likes this kind of handsome man who is full of books. She asked her friends who it was, and after confirming that she was still single, she sat directly next to Ji Shuyan. Seeing Ji Shuyan looking at her blankly, it seemed that she couldn't tell. Her intention of coming was like a well-behaved student waiting for her to speak. She couldn't help but smile deeper, and didn't beat around the bush, and said directly, "I've been watching you by the window just now, and I want to get to know you. You can exchange your contact information." ?"

She had already taken out her mobile phone, waiting for Ji Shuyan to agree with a smile.

A well-bred man like Ji Shuyan seldom touches other people's face, not to mention that today is just a game for everyone to get to know each other, there is really no reason to refuse.

But Ji Shuyan hesitated.

After talking about this, he doesn't know if it's flirting or a fool.

In the past, he would indeed add a WeChat politely. After all, he is a friend of a friend, so there is no need to embarrass others. As for whether to chat or not, it is another matter.

But today he looked at the girl across from him, but shook his head apologetically, "I'm sorry, let's forget about it today."

Gu Yu opened her eyes slightly, but she didn't expect it.

But Ji Shuyan looked at her very earnestly, and she didn't feel that she was being humiliated, but asked with great interest, "Why, do you have a girlfriend?"

If this is the case, it can only be considered that she is too late.

Ji Shuyan pursed his lower lip. Of course he didn't have a girlfriend, but apart from this reason, there seemed to be no reason to refuse.

He could only lie casually, "There are people in contact."

Gu Yu couldn't hold back, and laughed again.

What kind of excuse is this, even if it is an ambiguous object, it seems appropriate.

She shook her head, seeing Ji Shuyan also looked embarrassed, as if realizing how bad her excuse was, and didn't tease him anymore.

"Okay, then count me as bothering you." She stood up and patted next Ji Shuyan's shoulder casually, "Bye."

Ji Shuyan felt relieved, "Goodbye."

Zheng Wenbin, who was standing next to him, watched the whole process, and held back his desire to interrupt several times. It was not until Gu Concubine left that he stared at Ji Shuyan inexplicably, "When did you have a date?"

Others don't know Ji Shuyan, but he knows Ji Shuyan's private life like the back of his hand. Ji Shuyan is in the hospital and at home every day, looking for someone to flirt with.

He even suspected that even if someone wanted to date Ji Shuyan, Ji Shuyan would first look at the schedule and say, hello, please line up.

Ji Shuyan took a sip of sparkling water and said calmly, "I just found a reason, I just don't want to add it."

"Let me just say, Zheng Wenbin leaned back on the seat again, but he recalled Gu Yu's appearance just now, and he was a little strange, "But why don't you want to add, shouldn't she be the type you like? "

Ji Shuyan frowned, "The type I like? Why don't I know."

Zheng Wenbin laughed, and played with the lighter on the table, "You didn't notice it yourself, your two girlfriends before were both of this type, capable, generous, dedicated to work like you, and organized their lives. The people introduced to you, the ones you agree to contact, are also smart and decisive."

Ji Shuyan was dubious, he really hadn't noticed, he didn't really have any requirements for his partner, he just hoped that they would get along with each other harmoniously and not have any quarrels.

"But let me tell you, your request is not so much looking for a partner, it's more like looking for a partner. It's almost a replica of yourself, except that you are more lively than you." Zheng Wenbin propped his chin with one hand, and looked at Ji Shuyan with a smile , "Talking about love with yourself will not succeed, this is the reason why you fell in love."

Ji Shuyan looked at him teasingly, "Did you start to be an emotional mentor for others because you are in a good relationship?"

Zheng Wenbin chuckled. It is true that he has been in love recently. Seeing that the whole world is full of pink bubbles, he couldn't bear to see Ji Shuyan still deserted.

But falling in love is a private matter, and you can only judge whether it is suitable by yourself, and bystanders can't get involved at all.

He was half lying on the table, staring at Ji Shuyan, "Speaking of which, I don't think I've seen who you really like, and what kind of person do you like?"

What do you like... Ji Shuyan was stunned, Duan Zhi's face suddenly flashed in front of his eyes, he looked at him perversely and frivolously, with water on his lips, and called him Uncle Ji casually.

It was obviously a polite address, but when Duan Zhi called it out with a smile, it was like a quill, gently scratching the tip of the heart, indescribably provocative, and making people feel uncomfortable.

He was absent-minded, choked on the sparkling water, coughed so badly that his face turned red.

Zheng Wenbin was taken aback, and quickly patted his back, "Are you okay?"

Ji Shuyan covered his mouth and shook his head, with choked water mist in his eyes, the corners of his eyes were thin red, and he looked very attractive.

Even though Zheng Wenbin had long been immune to Ji Shuyan's beauty, he couldn't help sighing again in his heart that Ji Shuyan's parents really knew how to give birth.

He didn't think very seriously, everyone is fine, let's come to a monster and take Ji Shuyan away, otherwise he will let down his beauty.

After the party ended, Ji Shuyan didn't go to the next dinner, but took Zheng Wenbin to a small restaurant to eat a bowl of noodles.

This store has been open for a long time, and it is the place where the two of them have frequented since high school. The proprietress has never changed, and she is already familiar with them. When she saw them coming, she smiled and said, "Here we are."

Ji Shuyan also smiled and responded.

Both he and Zheng Wenbin ordered dinner without looking at the menu. While waiting for the noodles to be ready, the two of them chatted about high school. Just as they were talking, the phone on his table vibrated .

Ji Shuyan picked it up and took a look, only to find that it was Duan Zhi again.

Duan Zhi posted another photo this time, it was a barbecue restaurant, with a few bottles of beer in front of him, probably out for dinner with his classmates.

Ji Shuyan frowned, his hands were faster than his brain, and he sent a sentence, "Do you still drink if you want to compete?"

In less than two seconds, Duan Zhi's message came back, "I didn't drink much, it's because the competition happened the day after tomorrow, and they said they want to drink to relax."

He sent another picture, only half a glass of beer, "But I was very conscious, I only drank a little."

Ji Shuyan stared at the last sentence, the corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably, knowing that Duan Zhi was pretending to be good, but through the screen, he seemed to be able to see Duan Zhi's deliberate begging for mercy.

Little liar, Ji Shuyan thought coldly, saying that he would not bother him at all and let him think about it for a week, but the photo on the left and the message on the right seemed to put him in a state of quiet thinking.

He swiped his hand on the WeChat page, looked at the photo of Duan Zhi standing under the road sign, put down his phone, and didn't reply to Duan Zhi again.

But as soon as he looked up, he found Zheng Wenbin looking at him with an inscrutable expression on his face.

"What's wrong?" He didn't know why he felt guilty, "What are you looking at me for?"

Zheng Wenbin still didn't say a word, just stared at him until his back was fluffy, and then said lightly, "It's nothing, I just felt that you just laughed a little crookedly and silly."

Ji Shuyan didn't know that he was smiling, and raised his hand to touch his face. He wanted to refute but couldn't find a reason, so he just bowed his head and drank the soup silently, pretending that he didn't feel Zheng Wenbin's scrutiny.
