When the food reserves become my wife

Liao Chi was in a daze for a whole day.

Even Chu Jingjing noticed something was wrong with him, and asked him if he was not feeling well.Liao Chi told her it was okay, and silently endured the growing pain in his heart.

During the afternoon meeting, he was in a state where his left ear went in and his right ear went out. His brain seemed to be rusted, and it creaked when he thought about the problem.

At night, he finally regained his strength, comforting himself that he had just returned to his life before he met Lin Xuqing.He has long been used to loneliness, and when the most difficult period of time passes, life will return to normal - what they are facing is just a short parting, that's all.

But the so-called transition from extravagance to frugality is difficult, and he has completely gotten used to the company of another person. Can he regain his peaceful and indifferent mentality in the past?

He vaguely had an answer in his heart.

When he got home, Liao Chi lay down on the sofa, his shirt sleeves rolled up to his elbows, and he raised his arms to cover his eyes, not wanting to do anything.In the past, at this time, he and Lin Xuqing might have been wandering around together, or crowded together intimately to watch TV.

Lin Xuqing was young and energetic, and would always tease him dishonestly, but his desire was not too strong, and his body couldn't support such frequent courtship. Sometimes when he was annoyed, he would pretend to be angry and kick him aside.And that man always came back indifferently, as if he had no temper at all.

Stop thinking about it.He said to himself in his heart that no matter how much he thinks about it, he can't change anything, it will only make himself more uncomfortable.

After an unknown amount of time, he was almost dozing off on the sofa when the cell phone on the coffee table rang suddenly.

Liao Chi woke up in a jerk, raised his hand with a frown, and squinted his eyes in the light of the chandelier.He fumbled for the phone and glanced drowsily at the caller ID.

Lin Xuqing.

The very familiar three words made him wake up in an instant, he sat up straight suddenly, and tried two or three times with trembling fingers before he slid open the call button.

"Hey?"

"It's me." The polite tone ruthlessly broke his untimely fantasy. Lin Jinyuan seemed to have noticed his strangeness, and continued after a short pause: "Can you come down now? I have something to tell you explain."

Falling down fiercely like a huge wave, he was dizzy from being slapped. Liao Chi took a deep breath silently, and calmed down the trembling voice: "Okay, I'll go down now."

Putting on his coat in a hurry and going out, Liao Chi buttoned it up in the elevator, walked out of the corridor and saw the man waiting for him at a glance.

He was standing under the streetlight, with his hands in his pockets, still wearing the same outfit that he wore in the morning - that was what Liao Chi picked out at the shopping mall, and it perfectly complemented the man's tall and straight figure.

He was looking at the children playing in the fitness machine with his head tilted. The light illuminated his face very brightly, from the forehead all the way down, across the bridge of the nose, thin lips, chin, and Adam's apple to form a tough curve.It's just that the familiar smile no longer appeared on this handsome face, replaced by a vague indifference between his brows and eyes.

At this time, Lin Jinyuan turned his head, smiled at Liao Chi, and took two steps forward to meet him.Liao Chi stood still in front of him, even though there was a lot of secret dissatisfaction in his heart, facing this face and admirable soul that got along day and night, he couldn't help but soften his tone: "What's wrong?"

"I'm leaving, come here and talk to you." Lin Jinyuan said softly: "Gu Chuan has found the trace of the demon, and it is desperately looking for a way to restore its strength. I need to find it."

"This trip may be a bit long. I thought about it, and I still think I should give this back to you." Lin Jinyuan raised his clenched right hand, and Liao Chi stretched out his hand even though he didn't know why.

Lin Jinyuan solemnly placed something in his palm.

His hands were dry and warm as always, but the contact with each other was only for a moment.Lin Jinyuan withdrew his hand, the platinum ring reflected the light brightly, quietly carrying the eyes of the two of them.

"..." Liao Chi opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound.

"It's not suitable for me to continue wearing it." Lin Jinyuan smiled, the ring mark on the ring finger was very conspicuous: "After the matter is over, return it to him for me."

Liao Chi didn't remember how he went back, and the ring with the man's body temperature smashed his newly formed defense line to pieces.He has never been as strong as outsiders imagined, he just can bear it.

When he was a child, he endured fear to escape from the clutches of men. When he was a teenager, he endured pain and threw everything to Mo Qiang to smile. Now, he is about to endure parting.

Before going to bed, he tied Lin Xuqing's ring and his own to the red string around his neck.

It was also at this time that Liao Chi finally felt that he had really left.

Watching Liao Chi's back disappear from the line of sight, Lin Jinyuan breathed a sigh of relief, turned and left, his pace was much more steady than in the morning, Liao Chi's sadness passed to him, but was soon replaced by something harder up.

He didn't have much time to take care of everyone's feelings, and the heavy mission made him have no time to take care of more.

A girl in a water-blue dress was sitting on the edge of the flower bed with her hands resting on her chin, staring at the flying insects constantly flying towards the lampshade in a daze. Seeing Lin Jinyuan approaching, she quickly stood up and shouted with a smile: "Sir."

Taking a closer look at Bai Yuyi, it seems that there is something different from before, not like the deliberate gentleness, the bright smile on her face is really from the heart, and the eyes are shining like stars.Lin Jinyuan couldn't help laughing at the animal-like eyes. He patted the top of her soft hair and said, "Let's go."

Bai Yuyi hurriedly followed, she stretched out her hand, wanting to pull Lin Jinyuan's sleeve like she used to do when following behind him, but she saw the ring mark on his hand at a glance.

Bai Yuyi's hands hanging in the air paused, she pursed her moist lips, and her fingertips barely brushed Lin Jinyuan's cuff, without him noticing.

The body that Mr. is using now has his lover, and she should not do any transgression.

In order for Bai Yuyi to follow up easily, Lin Jinyuan deliberately slowed down his pace.A translucent spirit butterfly flew over from the darkness, tested it twice, and landed lightly on his shoulder.

Lin Jinyuan turned his head to look at the little thing, didn't say anything, as if he had received tacit approval, Bai Yuyi breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes.

But it was enough. Being able to accompany her husband like this was something she never dared to think about in the past.

"Get ready after going back tonight, we will set off early tomorrow morning." Lin Jinyuan reached out to stop a taxi by the side of the road, and confirmed again: "The journey will be dangerous, are you sure you want to go with me?"

"Yes." Bai Yuyi nodded firmly: "It is my honor to be able to be with you, sir."

Seeing that she had made up her mind to go, Lin Jinyuan stopped persuading her.In all fairness, he is unwilling to let this girl follow him to explore danger, whether it is due to Li's request many years ago or his secret selfishness.

But he still has to respect her choice. It is undeniable that she has grown a lot over the years, and she is no longer the little girl who only hid behind a tree and peeked at him back then.

The brilliant starlight illuminates the figures of the two, and also reflects on the window glass with the lights of thousands of families, casting a colorful light.

Tossing and turning in the middle of the night, Liao Chi still got up and lit Jin Ning's calming incense, and the dark fragrance floated in the smog, bringing him into a secret dream.

He seemed to be dreaming about his childhood, but it was different from the previous dreams. This time, there was warm sunshine in the dream, and a large area was sprinkled in the garden, and the swing under the banyan tree swayed gently in the breeze.

He heard wanton laughter coming from far away, and turned his head following the sound, but only saw the villa bathed in gold, and the crops of green plants that had not yet bloomed.

This dream was like a fantasy when he was not awake, flying over the lake of his thinking like a bird, leaving only ripples.

But at least it's better than nothing.

The remnant of peace in the dream made him wake up peacefully, the sky was already bright, and the alarm clock set on the mobile phone would not go off in 5 minutes.Without the person beside him who was always thinking about staying in bed, Liao Chi lay quietly for a while, and only slowly got up when the drowsiness completely disappeared.

He went to the study and opened the bottom drawer of the desk and took out a letter of resignation.

It had been expected that this departure might take a long time. In order not to delay work, Lin Xuqing prepared a resignation letter in advance and told Liao Chi to fire him once he left, and recruit another secretary who was quick to handle matters.

He looked at the first sentence "Dear Mr. Liao", and suddenly wanted to laugh for some reason.Since the relationship between the two was confirmed, Lin Xuqing never regarded him as the respected Mr. Liao again, but often used this title to tease him in sex.

After taking the resignation letter to the company for approval, Liao Chi asked Chu Jingjing to inform the HR department that the recruitment would start today.Chu Jingjing was very shocked by Lin Xuqing's "sudden resignation". She couldn't think of any reason for people to leave without saying a word. For this, Liao Chi just explained that Lin Xuqing's family had an urgent matter and would have to leave for a long time.

The new secretary took up the job a month later, and she was a girl who graduated from a prestigious university.When Bai Yanan left before, Liao Chi asked her to find a male secretary in order to satisfy his little wish, but now, even though he was not used to contacting women anymore, Liao Chi still hired this girl named Chen Ming.

For the next six months, there was no news of Lin Jinyuan.

Lin Xuqing's phone number is at the top of the address book. Every time he calls and sees those three words, Liao Chi can't help but put his finger on it and want to dial it, as if the other end of the phone is still the one he has been waiting for. same as people.

The initial pain gradually precipitated with the passage of time, and it disappeared without a trace, only reminding him suddenly when he was free, and feeling a tingling pain.

No one could notice his strangeness, except Liao Lianjun and Meng Qinliang.Liao Lianjun tried his best to comfort his elder brother, but he didn't know where to start, so he could only try his best to help him bear the pressure of the family.Meng Qinliang felt the same as him, even worse than him, at least Liao Chi could wait for his lover to come back, while Meng Qinliang was waiting in the hopeless way of returning to his usual romantic life.
