cold flame

Finding Lin Mo who was smoking outside the restaurant, Yang Hao walked over and patted him on the shoulder, lit one for himself, breathed out a smoke ring and said straight to the point: "How do you feel?"

"I don't feel it." Lin Mo was also very direct, without even looking at the other party, looking absent-minded.

"Damn it! It's a waste of my saliva because I worked so hard today. He is beautiful and has a good personality. Isn't he just a perfect match for you! Why are you so high-minded?"

Lin Mo smiled and said, "Do you want to say that you are a beautiful woman or a talented man?"

"Anyway, it means a perfect match!" Yang Hao squinted his eyes impatiently, "I was going to say that the four of us would go to the movies together after dinner, but now, only Qianqian and I are left."

When he said this, his face showed a completely opposite expression, Lin Mo squinted, "I think you must be happy."

I didn't know that Yang Hao had a new girlfriend before, but seeing the momentum now, he will have to continue to get bored with his girlfriend for a while after dinner.The plan to stay for a few days has long been cancelled.Lin Mo doesn't want to be a light bulb.

"Hey, it's not fun to put it bluntly." Yang Hao suddenly stretched out his hand and hooked Lin Mo's shoulder, "You boy, I didn't see you dating in high school, and the university said that there was a girlfriend who didn't hear from him now. No, you actually still have a relationship. Didn't we break up? No wonder you refused to die when you came back from graduation."

Lin Mo sighed in his heart. Regarding this fabricated girlfriend, he didn't expect the other party to remember, "We broke up a long time ago, and it doesn't matter to her whether I come back or not."

"Look at you, you look like you're not close to women, you won't..." Yang Hao smiled maliciously, "Is that it?"

Lin Mo's eyes flickered, his shoulders stiffened, his dark eyes squinted at the other party, and a calm smile curled up on his lips, "Even if it is, I will never follow you."

Immediately, he moved his body to the left, and Yang Hao, who was leaning on him, almost fell weightlessly, and grabbed Lin Mo, "Hey, I'm talking about you! What do you mean you will never follow me? Who do you look down on?"

"Go in."

"Oh, by the way, your cell phone." Yang Hao took out and handed it to Lin Mo, not forgetting to remind, "Your brother-in-law just called and asked you to go back later."

Lin Mo frowned slightly, and put the phone in his pocket without looking at it.Although he used Gao Wenxuan as a cover without saying hello, but he thought that this person should also know that he would not really live in his house.

When returning to the seat, the bill was settled by the way, everyone chatted casually and then went back to their respective homes. Before leaving, Lin Mo and Zhang Qiuxuan added WeChat with Yang Hao and Hu Qian singing together, and Yang Hao patted him on the shoulder specially. , using his eyes to imply that Lin Mo would not give up his determination to be a matchmaker.

The crystal magic ball lamp hanging on the ceiling of the skylight reflected the dizzying brilliance in the lazy music. At this moment, the man sitting in the corner of the bar was hiding in the darkness.

Long eyelashes covered those cold and indifferent eyes, only the haughty expression never faded, sitting quietly while drinking alone, the purple patch at the corner of the mouth added to the image of a gentle and noble son.

Even though he has chosen such an unobtrusive position, there will still be girls in bright clothes walking by, leaning against the bar to strike up a conversation with him, with charming smiles and sweet perfumes, Lin Mo is always cold without exception He replied a few words, so perfunctory that he didn't even want to lift his eyelids.

Lin Mo didn't mind being disturbed, and continued to take a sip of brandy as if he kept everything out of the way. The iced wine slid down his throat, feeling a faint sensation of being burned.

He didn't know why he came to the bar alone at such a time, even if there was no Yang Hao, he could still call his old classmates out, gather together with three or five people, have more things to have fun, and more topics as resources Talking, being noisy is always more reassuring than being alone.

Or go to an Internet cafe alone and kill time wantonly in competitive games. These are all good choices.But it was the boring and hot summer night, which made him eager to find a cold exit, staggered, and stepped in here unconsciously.

Normally, such a move would be too self-pitying...

Lin Mo felt that he was not such a person. He raised his head, as if he wanted to find a focus in the blurred scenery around him. What caught his eye was an orange water fog lamp next to it. Like a layer of tulle, it gently wraps around, covering the light in the water darkly.

Like a person holding a secret but unable to speak, Yang Hao's words suddenly flashed through his mind,...is that it?He had asked himself this question a long time ago, and what he didn't want to be mentioned was another dark quagmire entwined with this answer.

The cell phone always rings at inappropriate times. Lin Mo picked up the cell phone and glanced at it. He didn't know when he formed this habit. Every time he saw a certain name, he had to adjust his indescribably complicated mood. In an extremely calm tone.

Although the words that are often spit out are full of sharpness and resistance.

"Are you in a bar?"

The music behind him was mixed with laughter, and Lin Mo replied, "What do you think is the meaning of this kind of question that doesn't need an answer?"

Gao Wenxuan chuckled on the other end of the phone, "I just didn't expect you to forget the injury you suffered yesterday so quickly."

"That's why you called?" Lin Mo asked impatiently.

"Mom called just now, and she asked about you, and I said you had already fallen asleep." Speaking of this, Gao Wenxuan paused for a few seconds, "Where are you now?"

"Bar." Lin Mo picked up the glass in front of him and drank it down.

"The location. If you don't want me to tell your mother tomorrow that you didn't sleep in the room tonight but went clubbing."

"Do you threaten me?"

"That's right." Gao Wenxuan replied simply, Lin Mo could even imagine the other party raising his eyebrows and smiling.

Damn it, why did he go along with the flow and use this person as a pretext for not going home.

Lin Mo said the location helplessly, as if to relieve his unhappiness, he continued to order a few glasses of wine, no longer tasting silently as before, but gulping it down in two or three gulps. Drunk state becomes drunk.

The whole journey was silent, the air was filled with the smell of alcohol and uncoordinated silence, the car window was wide open, Gao Wenxuan stepped on the accelerator, and the wind blowing in swept Lin Mo's hair and eyelashes, as if it could blow away some of his drunkenness .

After getting out of the car, Lin Mo walked away alone without waiting for Gao Wenxuan to help him. It seemed that he had really woken up a lot in the car just now. Although his steps were still a little unsteady, he still walked to Gao Wenxuan's house with his back straight.

When he entered the door to change his shoes, he staggered, but fortunately Gao Wenxuan grabbed him, and finally the opposite color appeared on the other party's usually calm face, which was similar to anger.

He stared at Lin Mo's slightly red side face, and said in a low voice, "I hate drunk people."

The pinched arm trembled slightly, Lin Mo threw him away forcefully, and stared at Gao Wenxuan fiercely with his bloodshot eyes, like a stubborn little beast that would go mad at any time, he tried to squeeze out a few words, as if exhausting all his strength.

"I hate you when you're drunk, too."

Gao Wenxuan was slightly startled, as if thinking of something, he couldn't help stretching his brows and eyes a little, and then looked at Lin Mo with a deeper gaze, "So you remember."

"Yes, not only do I remember, I also regret it. I regret that I didn't respond to you in this way!"

After finishing speaking, Lin Mo quickly rushed up and punched Gao Wenxuan, under the catalysis of alcohol molecules, he couldn't control the strength at all. Gao Wenxuan didn't seem to expect him to have such an aggressive move. It smells of rust.

He reached out his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes turned from momentary astonishment to calmness, and he said the words that angered Lin Mo more slowly, "One fist for one kiss, I don't lose."

Lin Mo, who was standing on the side gasping for breath, heard this, clenched his fists and wanted to vent again, but was restrained by the other party first, Gao Wenxuan squeezed Lin Mo's wrist forcefully, and said: "Parents are not here, if you still want to continue to drink like crazy , I don't promise what I will do."

When Lin Mo heard his threatening tone, the anger and unwillingness that had been running wildly in his body before seemed to have found a reason, and instantly turned into the coldness of him looking back at the other party.

"I almost forgot, you don't have to pretend when your parents are away. I should have let them know the real you, hypocritical, selfish, and dark! It's not as perfect and good as they see it, maybe so, my sister I won't marry you, and you don't deserve to be my brother-in-law at all!"

"That's right, I am hypocritical, selfish, and dark. Unexpectedly, you are the person who understands me best in this world." Gao Wenxuan said the last sentence softly, with a smile on the corner of his lips, stained with red blood. A trace of temperature.
