Heal the King

Xu Yiqing called him for the first time a week ago, but he didn't answer.

Tao Han is usually very busy, especially in the past few months when he took on a project. The other party is a coal boss who got rich overnight and knows nothing about business management and operation decision-making.

It's not that Tao Han is short of money. Sometimes he does have a playful mentality, and wants to see how such an enterprise can survive and develop in the environment.Much more interesting than teaching and educating people.

Xu Yiqing is his lover.

Maybe lovers, maybe not.

They have maintained a delicate relationship for a year.

Tao Han and him were childhood sweethearts. When they were teenagers, they lived across the alley from Xu Yiqing. He was two years younger than Xu Yiqing and grew up with Xu Yiqing.

When he was a teenager, he began to discover his sexual orientation, confessed his love before going abroad, and then began their ten-year long-distance relationship.

They once had an agreement that when they both achieved something in their own fields, they would return to China and stay together forever.

Tao Han successfully returned to China a year ago because of the F University's talent recall plan. For him, this opportunity was quite good, but the night he returned to China was a nightmare for Xu Yiqing.

He is naturally insensitive to all things in the entertainment industry, and he is not familiar with the domestic environment. For a long time, he didn't know how high his lover's career is, and he couldn't understand it. On the night of returning home, the photo of his lover kissing him was captured by the paparazzi and posted on the Internet. From that moment on, his lover stepped down from the altar step by step.

He felt like an indescribable scum.

He should be guilty, but he really doesn't know where to feel guilty. He would force himself to care about his lover's news, but he feels that the person living on the other side of the screen is so unreal.He will have an unspeakable rebellious psychology.

That's not his lover.

Just like the singer on the radio, the wallpaper on the phone screen, and the old posters on the wall are not his lovers.

He and Xu Yiqing spent this year hanging on each other, torturing each other, to see who would lose first in this relationship.

Sometimes Tao Han feels resentment in his heart, but sometimes he also misses him. No one knows how gentle Xu Yiqing is than him, but most of the time they can only make phone calls. Since Tao Han found out about the photo incident, Tao Han will hardly propose a date with Xu Yiqing and so on.Once they meet, something is bound to happen.Once the paparazzi even approached him and asked him to pay for the photos.

Last week, Xu Yiqing called him, but he didn't answer, so Xu Yiqing could only leave him a message.

My mother asked me to call you home for a meal, this weekend.

It was already late at night when Tao Han saw it. After taking a shower and smoking a cigarette, he wrote back a message to Xu Yiqing:

— No, I haven't thought it through yet.Say hello to Auntie for me.

Xu Yiqing called.

"Don't sleep that late." Tao Han rubbed his hair with a cigarette in his mouth.

"You didn't sleep either." Xu Yiqing's voice was very nice, and he was still a little hoarse at night, "...Shut down your cigarettes, you must be smoking again."

"Well." Tao Han said, "I still have two or three solutions that I haven't written down. How can I refresh myself without cigarettes?"

Xu Yiqing sighed: "Why don't you come, my mother really wants to see you."

"Because I'm not ready." Tao Han said, "In what capacity should I go..."

"Boyfriend." Xu Yiqing said, "You are my boyfriend."

"Really?" Tao Han asked back.

"Didn't you, you broke up with me unilaterally?" Xu Yiqing said, "I don't want to break up with you, and I don't allow you to say so."

"We were photographed once on a date half a year ago. I still remember the scene where the reporter stood in front of my car with a photo and blocked me. Are there so many reporters who can use money to pose for a photo? This time it is not for money, directly What about exposure?"

Xu Yiqing said: "...Don't worry, no one is taking pictures of me now."

"No one took pictures of you, it's because of me." Tao Han lit another cigarette, and Xu Yiqing could hear the clicking of the lighter very clearly.

"...You...you stop smoking." Xu Yiqing's voice was a little choked, "Is it necessary for us to end up like this every time we talk. I'm not because of you now, so don't use these words every time."

"..." Tao Han shook his head where he couldn't see.

"Speaking of which, do you know that someone posted your video on Weibo? Dr. Tao."

"What?" Tao Han was taken aback.

"I was surprised when I saw the video of your lecture. The clicks are very high, and everyone is praising you." Xu Yiqing said, "Maybe you are more popular than me now."

"Are you mocking me Xu Tianwang?" Tao Han said.

"No." Xu Yiqing smiled, "I'm really envious."

"Sorry baby, I can't understand." Tao Han said, "What are you envious of?"

"Okay. I know you can't understand..." Xu Yiqing's voice gradually faded away. Tao Han held the phone, thinking that Xu Yiqing wanted to remain silent until the end, but suddenly raised his voice on the other end of the phone, "What do you understand?! Do you have any?" Do you want to understand? Are you trying to understand my life? I just want to tell you sometimes that I miss you, I want to see you, but why do we always seem to have endless arguments??"

"What kind of life do I understand about you? Filming? Singing? I'm sorry, I really don't understand!" Tao Han also got angry, and said to the phone, "The entertainment industry? Isn't that just a profession? What do you expect me to understand?!"

"I don't expect it." Xu Yiqing said, "...I just miss you very much."

"I miss you too. We haven't seen each other for four months. I'm counting the days." Tao Han said, "I can understand your occupation, that is, you will never belong to me alone. Things are annoying."

"I'm not good enough." Xu Yiqing said, "But I don't want to quarrel."

"I don't want to either." Tao Han rubbed his eyes that were swollen from the smoke, "I don't know what the video is, and I don't bother to know, I will think about eating with my aunt...it has nothing to do with my aunt, I I'm just afraid to see you."

"I see." Xu Yiqing said, "Go to bed early."

"Good night, I love your brother." Tao Han said, "I really love you."

"Yeah." Xu Yiqing hung up the phone without saying "I love you" back to him.
