The bar is full of people, and the light is as yellow as beer.

The projection on the wall is broadcasting a football league from another continent in real time. The cheers and groaning sounds are like ocean waves, and the emotions are like popcorn, which explodes the moment the ball touches the net.

"Come in!"

"Hold!"

"Brilliant!"

Then there was such a high-pitched laugh, scolding and applause, which fully vented the surging joy of the fans present.

In the booth in the corner, Yu Nian sat leaning against the decorative bookshelf, resting his chin with nothing to do.The two teams in the screen are running around like crazy, he lacks interest, and simply makes a one-to-one correspondence between the people present and the players in the screen, counting the number of fans, and a glass of green grass in front of him. Gradient Mojito only took a sip.

He finds it salty.

This is the bad taste of the bar owner.A good cup of safety brand must be added with salted and salted plums. It is called life is endless and innovative, but Yu Nian, who wants to drink mint leaves soaked in water, has been tricked.

Knowing nothing about football, he was recruited by Lou Mingqiang.

In fact, it is not considered a forced pull, but Lou Ming said to get together several times, and he was too embarrassed to refuse, so he could only bite the bullet and agree. Who would have thought that he would face not only an unfamiliar football game, but also Lou Ming's five friends.

Yu Nian and Lou Ming have kept in touch with each other since they got to know each other during the interview.Lou Ming took the initiative to find him the next day, saying that he still had something to add about the interview the day before, and asked if it was convenient for him to call again.Yu Nian naturally said it was convenient, and the two chatted logically for about ten minutes that afternoon, and at the end Lou Ming said that he wanted to review the first draft later.

After going back and forth like this, the two became friends.It's not very familiar, but occasionally Lou Ming comes to work near the magazine office and asks him to have lunch with him, and sometimes some interesting videos or news will be posted on social software, just chat a few words.

Regardless of the two identities of Alpha and Beta, Lou Ming himself is also a person who makes people want to get close.Hearty, enthusiastic, and direct, like tropical sunshine, it can shine on every corner of the heart of the people around you, and you don't need to bother to guess.

Such an Alpha and Xiao Mocun are two extremes.It's like two wolf cubs of the same breed were raised in two completely different environments. One grew up to be Lou Ming who smiles at everyone and is friends everywhere, and the other grew up to be indifferent and closed Xiao Mocun.

Xiao Mocun again...

Yu Nian came to his senses and stopped this boring comparison.He pinched the straw and stirred the crushed ice in the glass, the lime, salted plum, and mint leaves twirled, and the fine water droplets hanging on the wall of the glass also merged into a stream and flowed down.

"What's the matter, are you bored?"

A hand put on his shoulder.

Turning his head, Lou Ming was looking at him with a smile, and there was some ketchup on the outermost short-sleeved jersey, which seemed to have nothing to do with seriousness.

Yu Nian pointed to the ketchup stain: "You really don't look like a prosecutor from the City Prosecutor's Office now."

"What should a prosecutor be like?" Lou Ming sat beside him.

In fact, that was his position at the beginning, but as the game got more intense, he was called away by a few familiar golf friends.

"Hey! Lou Ming! How are you leaving?" Someone at the bar called him immediately.

"Say a few words with your friend, and we'll be there soon!" Lou Ming raised his hand to signal.

Yu Nian lifted his chin to him tolerantly, "It's nothing, you can go there, I can just watch the game by myself."

"No hurry, let them wait a while." Lou Ming looked at him with a smile, "You haven't answered me yet, what should a prosecutor be like?"

"Hmm... Uniform clothing, strict speech, even if you can't say it, you can overwhelm others in terms of momentum."

Lou Ming laughed: "You're talking about the underworld, right?"

Yu Nian's rosy lips pursed, showing some mischievousness, "You are white society."

In this way, he seems to have regained some of his student appearance.

"Oh!" There was another wave of cheers at the scene. The two looked up and saw that the black player of the red team sent the ball into the goal with a frontcourt volley.

"Yes." Lou Ming snapped his fingers neatly.

"Okay, go and celebrate." Yu Nian gently pushed away the hand on his shoulder, "You don't need to stay here."

The atmosphere is lively and boisterous.

Lou Ming looked at the circle of friends who were clinking glasses with each other and then looked at Yu Nian, "I wouldn't have called you here if I had known, but I didn't expect you to be completely uninterested. Introduce a few friends to you, they are all nice people, and they can be friends with you to watch a car race or go rock climbing together."

Yu Nian slowly moved her lips to the straw and took a sip of the ice water in the glass.

"Well, I understand. But I'm usually quite nerdy, and I probably don't know any of your sports. I think it will spoil your interest."

"What does that matter, you are so smart, you must learn it soon."

The prosecutor's mouth always makes people feel like a spring breeze.

But Yu Nian still shook his head, "I don't have much talent in sports, I'm afraid I won't be able to learn it."

"Not so much—"

Lou Ming wanted to say more, but someone at the bar called him again: "Brother Lou! Come here, the wine in the glass is waiting for me to drink?"

Yu Nian followed suit and said, "Go quickly, it's getting late, so I won't stay any longer."

"Are you leaving now?" Lou Ming frowned.

"Yeah." Yu Nian nodded, and had already stood up to take the bag. "Some things have happened to my house recently. I don't feel at ease when my brother is alone at home. It's better to go back early."

In this way, it was inconvenient for Lou Ming to force, and Yu Nian walked out of the bar smoothly.

But not long after walking, Alpha's deep voice came from behind, "Yu Nian, wait!"

He turned his head and saw that Lou Ming had already taken off his jersey, and was running towards him quickly with a sweater on his upper body and sneakers on his lower body.

"I'll send it to you."

Yu Nian pointed to the entrance of the subway station less than 500 meters away, "It's so close, what else do you give?"

Lou Ming showed no refusal: "Just send it to the subway entrance."

—

The evening breeze is cool, and the moon and stars are rare.

The two slowed down and walked side by side on the sidewalk on the right side of the road, surrounded by the shimmering moat. The air exhaled from Alpha's nasal cavity was mixed with the smell of alcohol, which was caught by Yu Nian's keen sense of smell.At the same time, there is also a strange but powerful pheromone, which is frank and straightforward, just like Lou Ming, without any lust.

The right concentration of pheromone played a soothing role, not only did not make Yu Nian feel uncomfortable, but also let his nerves ache from the high decibel noise of the bar relax a little bit.

It's true that he hasn't been exposed to Alpha pheromone for too long.

After walking quietly for a while, Lou Ming said slowly, "Yu Nian, I invited you to watch the game today, don't you like it?"

Yu Nian was stepping on his own shadow on the ground, when he heard this, he slowly raised his head: "Huh?"

"I see you don't talk much tonight."

"I just don't know what to say." Yu Nian said frankly, "I don't really understand the football game, and I don't know any of your friends, so I really don't know what to talk about."

Lou Ming's expression became more and more serious, and his steps became slower.

"It's because I didn't consider it thoughtfully enough. I thought you wouldn't be disgusted by the crowds."

"I don't blame you." Yu Nian shook his head lightly, "Your friends are all very nice, but I really don't understand football, and this is not a hobby that can be understood in one night."

He was not interested in ball games since he was a child, and he felt sleepy when he watched the game.

Lou Ming is persuasive, like a caring elder brother, "You can't say that. You don't understand it because you haven't been in touch with it. If you want to cultivate this hobby, you will naturally be on your way after watching it a few times. According to my observation, you I usually spend more time at home, so although there is nothing wrong with it, there are actually many things you can try, maybe after you try it, you will find that it is not difficult, it is also very interesting, and it will allow you to make a lot of new friends.”

These words sound like they are enlightening a patient with social disabilities.

Yu Nian smiled, "Is that why you have so many friends?"

Lou Ming sneered: "The key lies in the charisma of personality, you will understand after getting in touch with her slowly."

The Alpha in front of him has a straightforward personality, enough to go straight to the point.

But he was wrong about Yu Nian.

The signboard of a convenience store not far away was dazzling. Lou Ming went in and bought two bottles of vitamin supplements for him and Yu Nian, and walked out accompanied by the music of "Welcome next time".

Yu Nian took it over and said thank you, "Your lifestyle is very healthy and fulfilling."

"You can too." Lou Ming unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip.

Yu Nian still shook his head, "My lifestyle is very different from yours, but I am very satisfied and I don't plan to change it. So..." He paused, "So I appreciate your kindness."

He has changed once for others, and he knows the harm, and he does not intend to repeat the same mistakes for the time being.

Lou Ming held an empty bottle in his hand, just said "Okay", suddenly turned sideways, and put Yu Nian in his arms -

"careful!"

In the next second, a motorcycle flew past the two of them at such a speed that their hair blew up.

"Fuck..." Lou Ming cursed in front of Yu Nian for the first time, "Are you okay?"

Yu Nian, who was hugged by him tightly in front of his chest, was dazed by the instant filling of Alpha pheromone in his nose, and his face flushed immediately.

The atmosphere is ambiguous, and the body temperature conveys warmth.

Alpha looked at him tenderly from top to bottom, "Yu Nian—"

As soon as he got up, the mobile phone in Yu Nian's bag was touching some metal object, and it suddenly vibrated violently at an inopportune time, and it rang frighteningly.

Yu Nian came back to his senses for a second, and immediately realized something was wrong, and suddenly got out of his arms, "I'm sorry, I have to answer the phone."

Lou Ming had no choice but to turn his back.

"Hello." Yu Nian quietly calmed down her messy breathing, not having time to look at the number on the screen.

There was silence on the phone.

"Hey?"

He took it off and glanced at it strangely. He was indeed on the phone. Lou Ming turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Yu Nian put the phone to his ear again, "Who is it?"

Two seconds later, accompanied by the sound of a slight electric current, a voice that wanted to be forgotten came from the phone.

"it's me."

Yu Nian was fully awake immediately.

It's Xiao Mocun.

Then there was silence again, and the slow breathing sound slowly counted the seconds, thinning the surrounding air.

Yu Nian bit her lip and took off the phone. Her finger rested on the red button, but she couldn't press it for a long time.

He had no choice but to turn around and say to Lou Ming, "Go back to the bar first, I'll go home after answering the phone."

The subway entrance was right in front of him, Lou Ming showed a slightly surprised expression, but he didn't have enough reason to say no, so he could only compromise, "Okay, be careful on the road, and send me a text message when you get home."

"En." Yu Nian nodded in agreement, watching Lou Ming leave.

Then he picked up the phone again and took a deep breath.

"is there anything?"

It's been another week since they met last time, and they didn't expect Alpha to contact him again.

"Who are you with?" Xiao Mo asked in a low voice on the phone, his mood unclear.

Yu Nian replied calmly: "It has nothing to do with you."

Alpha seemed stuck with his attitude.

Perhaps it was because the grumpy person was not in front of him at the moment, and the fear in his heart did not show up for the time being, so he remained silent for a while and said, "I'll hang up first if there's nothing else to do."

"Wait." Xiao Mocun stopped him, paused for a few seconds, his posture was unprecedentedly low, "I want to ask you a favor, I don't know if you will."

As the river wind blew, Yu Nian shook his body slightly.

It turns out that Alpha, who is always stubborn and arrogant, can also say "please", it sounds like there is indeed some trouble.

In the past, Yu Nian had already been trembling in his soul, and he couldn't wait to hear what was going on, so he agreed immediately. How could he let Alpha wait for so long?

But now it's different.

Yu Nian thought he had nothing to help him.They have long been one in the sky and the other in the ground, and even the intersection is almost gone, so they still talk about whether they are willing or not.

He said softly, "Sorry, I don't think I can help you."

There was a sudden silence on the phone.

After a while, Xiao Mocun said, "You don't even ask me what's the matter?"

His tone was gloomy, but not angry.

Yu Nian, who was already ready to listen to the angry reprimand, felt unexpected, and his throat stagnated: "Your identity is different now, and there should be no use for me anymore."

He didn't mean to hurt Alpha's heart, but he really wanted to.In terms of money, status, feelings, and even glands, he has nothing to offer.

Xiao Mocun did not refute, but lowered his voice, almost hoarse.

"Yu Nian, I understand that you hate me, and I'll do whatever you want to vent in the future, but you must help me this time."

The voice is sincere and serious like never before.

Yu Nian was startled, and pressed his lips together and asked, "What do you want me to do for you..."

After all, I still can't help myself.

The breathing on the phone was deeper, and seemed to be trembling slightly.

"Dad wants to see you."
