Cage

Crazy, angry, more hidden pain and despair, making his whole heart feel like it's going to explode Yes... It hurts, it hurts.

The sound of chaotic footsteps gradually approached.

Mo Ling let go of Lan Yi in his arms, lowered his head and looked at him seriously, as if trying to imprint his face in his eyes.

Lan Yi also saw that behind Mo Ling, with his back turned, a group of well-trained bodyguards in black rushed into the alley and rushed towards Mo Ling. Regardless of Mo Ling's frantic resistance, they hurriedly grabbed his arms and moved away. Roughly dragged outward, although Mo Ling is physically strong, he is outnumbered. Even though he was already struggling like crazy to get close to Lan Yi again, he still couldn't get rid of the restraint of his side.

"Mo Ling...Mo Ling..."

Seeing that the once calm and steady boy is now struggling like a crazy beast, regardless of the pull of the crowd.

Knowing what was going on, Lan Yi's voice had already trembled faintly, as if he was about to cry, but he tried his best to hold back, tremblingly raised his hand, and took two steps forward to grab something. The hands are always empty.

"Mo Ling...Mo Ling..."

Without the courage to step forward to stop, Lan Yi could only follow the tearing crowd, shouting in a choked voice over and over again.

The step forward was blocked. The expressionless bodyguards had already discovered the reason for Mo Ling's madness, and they politely stood in front of Lan Yi. His thin body couldn't break free from the restraints of the bodyguards. Lan Yi could only stand on tiptoe desperately. Kicking up, looking through the bodyguard's shoulders, he stared at Mo Ling who was getting further and further away without daring to blink.

"Lan Yi!"

When Lan Yi heard his name, Mo Ling screamed, and desperately tried to get through the gap between the bodyguards, but it was in vain. He could only see the corners of Mo Ling's eyes turning red as he walked away, and yelled at him , "I won't let you go just like that! I will definitely break your legs!"

The threatening words were unconvincing in the struggling scene, "Wait! Wait! Wait for me to come back..." The mutilated voice tore at the vocal cords, Lan Yi's eyes widened, and Mo Ling, who had always been stubborn and self-respecting, was looking at him now ...and shed tears...

"Mo Ling...Mo Ling..." Lan Yi's voice suddenly softened and he stopped struggling randomly, and tears overflowed from his eyes no longer could be restrained.

The black car that had already parked on the other side of the road opened the door, and Mo Ling turned around and saw the car that was about to be forced into it. His originally handsome face was full of sorrow, and he closed his eyes as if compromisingly and no longer looking at Lan Yi on the other side of the road. Like giving up struggling.

Halfway into the body, he paused, as if he suddenly remembered something, and suddenly raised his head. No one expected that Mo Ling would struggle at this moment, and he was freed from restraint. Mo Ling ran to Lan Yi who was facing him desperately , reached into his pocket and took out a paper-like thing, desperately reaching out to hand it to the bodyguard before he caught up.

"呲~" There was a harsh sound of brakes, and the sound of bones breaking.

Everyone was stunned. Lan Yi stood across the road in a daze, looking at Mo Ling who was surrounded by bodyguards not far away. The two bodyguards who had been blocking Lan Yi had already hurriedly joined the rescue team.

The bodyguards surrounded him tightly, and Lan Yi couldn't see Mo Ling's situation, but he could see the blood slowly flowing out, converging into a small stream, winding forward on the road.

Lan Yi breathed heavily, his chest heaved violently, every time he took a breath, he seemed to use up all his strength, and he stared at the scene of rescue, so tragic that he even forgot to shed tears.

"Mo...Mo Ling...Mo Ling..." repeated almost like a whisper.

No... nothing will happen... right... he is so powerful, he can restrain himself with one hand, no matter how much he resists, he can't break free, and he can only be freed every time he does whatever he wants...

How could it be so easy to shed dazzling blood under the car?

Why are everyone so flustered...why are the people lying on the ground...not moving at all...

Why are the eyes that shed tears just now tightly closed...

Why don't you open your eyes and stare at him viciously...you just kissed him brutally just now...you said viciously that you would imprison him for the rest of your life...

The ambulance sped away with flashing police lights, and the crowd watching the excitement gradually dissipated. Only Lan Yi walked forward slowly with lowered eyes, one step, two steps...

Picking up the two pieces of paper that Mo Ling let go at the last moment, the bloody corners stained Lan Yi's fingertips red,

An early admission letter from F University, a check with the amount...

F University is his dream... When did he mention it to that person... I forgot...

That person is very domineering...excessive...everything can be solved in the simplest and most brutal way...always acting superior, treating others as ants...

But at the last moment of leaving, he gave him the good he expected... but it seems that he can never go back...

It started to rain again at night, and Lan Yi straightened his suit. This kind of low-priced suit found in the shopping street has this problem. After sitting for an afternoon, it began to wrinkle. No matter how you tidy it up, it is useless. Lan Yi sighed Tone, it seems that after this month's salary, he must go to the mall to buy a set of discounted brand-name suits.

Lan Yi stood at the entrance of the company for a long time, but the rain showed no sign of stopping. Seeing the raindrops dripping from the eaves merged into a small puddle in front of his feet, people from the company drove away in twos and threes. He got off alone.

I am already 25 years old, and after giving up my studies, I still have no success in my career. I am always in danger in this kind of intriguing big company. With a pitiful salary, I have to work heavy and tiring shifts from time to time, but I am lonely. In the middle of the night, there is no one who can comfort and comfort him...Of course there is none...Because he has no money and no power... There is also a mother who has been working hard all year round in his hometown... Lan Yi thought a little self-deprecating.

Sometimes it’s like this when you grow up, when you have more pressure, see more people and the market, and people start to become negative... It’s not like when you were young...

"Didi." The domestically produced low-emission car drove towards Lanyi, and started honking wildly from a long distance away, making it difficult for Lanyi to not pay attention.

Ding Yiluo rolled down the car window, whistled at Lan Yi, and raised his eyebrows, "What is Miss Lan thinking, I don't mind you enjoying the rain on a cold night, but my son is hungry He has already started biting the sofa, if you don't go back to cook, the refrigerator in our house will probably have to be turned upside down by him."

The appearance of Ding Yiluo injected a stream of warmth into Lan Yi's increasingly negative and depressed mood. With this friend who had known each other for more than seven years, Lan Yi no longer knew how to express his gratitude to him.

Opening the car door and getting in, Lan Yi couldn't help shivering when he suddenly came into contact with the warm air inside the car.

Back in the small apartment with two bedrooms and one living room, Lan Yi skillfully caught the little figure who was rushing over, and comforted the little fat face that was about to burst into tears because of hunger, while putting on an apron and walking into the kitchen to cut vegetables and cook neatly .

Lan Yi and Ding Yiluo's father and son rented together since a year ago.

Five years ago, the Ding Group went bankrupt and almost all of its assets were auctioned off. The huge group was taken over by Hei Yaoquan. The disheartened Ding family took the only money left and went to Italy. Luo worked hard to take care of the remaining small companies, lived a prosperous life, got married and had a child, but suddenly knocked on the door of his house one night a year ago with the child in his arms. Abducted away, not a penny left of the deposit, and the house has already been secretly transferred. Now, apart from the few small companies that barely make a living, all Ding Yiluo has left is the chubby girl in his arms. son.

At that time, the co-worker who was renting together was about to get married and moved out of this apartment, and the Ding family father and son who came after him successfully took over the position of that co-worker. It seems that the days of companionship are not so difficult.

The simple stir-fried dishes came out quickly, and when Lan Yi brought out the dishes, Ding Yiluo and Ding Erer were sitting at the dining table in an orderly manner, holding chopsticks and waiting for the sun to rise.

"How did you think about what I told you last time?" Ding Yiluo took the chopsticks to pick up vegetables in Ding Erer's bowl, and said casually.

"..." Lan Yi lowered his head and poked the rice in his hand with his chopsticks, and smiled awkwardly, "Let's forget it..."

"Why? I've already made an agreement with the other side, and the girls agreed to meet." Ding Yiluo became anxious when he heard that, and slapped his chopsticks on the table, startling Ding Erer, who was concentrating on grilling rice, and deflated. With his lips pursed like he was about to cry, Ding Yiluo hurriedly hugged him into his arms, coaxing him and complaining, "You're not born crooked like me, you just fell in love with a man by accident, you Didn’t you have any different feelings for other boys in a few years? Don’t always be so eager to shirk, the last time you met with your aunt, you entrusted me with your lifelong affairs, and I can pat my chest and promise to complete , don't trap me in a place of injustice, didn't you let go of what happened so many years ago?"

"..." Lan Yi fell silent after hearing Ding Yiluo's nagging.

What Ding Yiluo said was not unreasonable. His mother was also old and in poor health. When she returned home, she would often hear her nagging, "The Li family has embraced a fat boy again, and the Wang family's wife is a civil servant." .”

Why doesn't he want to find someone who loves each other to spend his life in an ordinary way, or he can really try to find someone who can worry about himself or warm each other in the cold night.

But it has been seven years, and most of the deep wounds of my youth have been healed with time, but my immature mind and body have been held in hands, played with and tortured, and I have given up my studies and left my family. , but I still feel sore after occasionally thinking of that man. After experiencing such a shameful and major blow, I feel that it is not realistic to think about living a happy and decent life again.

But thinking about it this way, Lan Yi still couldn't bear to refuse Ding Yiluo's enthusiasm in the end.

Sitting in a slightly upscale small teahouse, Lan Yi rubbed her hands a little uneasy. The girl opposite her was named Chen Yuan, she was really pretty, she had a great conversation, and she was also a regular employee of a famous company.On the contrary, he has worked so hard in that small business for so many years, but he didn't even get a team leader, and the sum of two months' salary is more than one month's salary.

The longer the conversation, the more Lan Yi felt that she wasn't good enough for her, and finally broke into pieces, and Chen Yuan answered honestly whenever she asked, with the mentality of letting it go.

Unexpectedly, the effect of breaking the jar and breaking it was unexpectedly good. In the end, Chen Yuan happily proposed the location of the next date, which surprised Lan Yi who was unexpected.

Gradually, the two gradually became acquainted, and the occasional date changed from side by side to arm in arm.

Lan Yi also asked Chen Yuan why she fell in love with him, and the answer she got was "You are honest, reliable, and able to live a life. From the first look, you think you will be good to the person you love. I am not short of money, but I am short of you." Such a person..." After finishing speaking, he imprinted the first ever sweet kiss on Lan Yi's smooth white face, which made Lan Yi feel like he was stepping on cotton during the night's date. Are still a little fluttering.

Lan Yi felt that now he had completely shaken off the nightmare of his youth and started falling in love.

When Lan Yi knew that Mo Ling came back, he was preparing a company outing lunch for Chen Yuan in the kitchen.

In the past few days, Ding Yiluo has been restless, always dawdling around him trying to speak, with an expression of hesitating to speak.Finally, taking advantage of the emptiness of the morning, I wandered into the kitchen,

"Mo Ling has returned to China, and is now in our city..."

Lan Yi was shredding potatoes, when the kitchen knife fell and lifted up, the steel kitchen knife made a muffled sound on the cutting board, the light yellow potato shreds were immediately stained with blood, and half of the nails were cut off, Lan Yi didn't feel it at all. less than pain.

"I've already met him, he's doing well, and now he's the president of Mo's..." Ding Yiluo paused with some hesitation, "And he... will be engaged next month .”

"…Um…"

Lan Yi lowered his head, and poured water on the wound, his voice was stuck in his throat, and he answered indistinctly, the wound gradually became numb with the cold water washing.

"So you have taken all your concerns into account. Talk to Chen Yuan in a safe and sound way. When the talk is almost done, you can also book the marriage. After all, you are not young..."

"Um…"

After Ding Yiluo left, Lan Yi continued to throw the washed shredded potatoes into the pot, and the hot air entered his eyes, making them sour.

He took the bus to deliver Chen Yuan's ready lunch, but he got off the bus one stop earlier by accident. That person should be on the top floor of the building across the road by now.

It has been seven years. I don’t know what the arrogant and domineering boy with dyed red hair looks like now. I still remember that he was covered in blood and fell in a pool of blood... Did the car accident cause permanent damage to him? Has the injury fully healed....

Lan Yi raised his head, looked at the top floor of the building, really wanted to take a look...even if it was just a blurry outline in the distance.

After wandering around the gate of the building for a while, even the security guards in the building began to pay attention, staring at him closely, for fear that he would behave suspiciously.Lan Yi, who had been struggling in his heart for a long time, was finally defeated, dropped his shoulders in frustration, and walked towards Chen Yuan's company not far away with his lunch box in hand.

"Honey..." Chen Yuan trotted out from the door behind Lan Yi, "...just as I went downstairs, I saw a figure in the distance that looked like you, and when I walked in, it was indeed you. We are really connected." Chen Yuan Yuan took Lan Yi's hand in surprise.

"Huh? Why are you here?" Lan Yi widened his eyes, looked at the building behind and confirmed again that it was not Chen Yuan's company.

"This is the company's headquarters. Although the company names are different, they all belong to the same group. I just sent materials to the headquarters." Chen Yuan hurriedly took Lan Yi's hand and walked towards the company building where she was located. He muttered dissatisfiedly, "Those seniors in the personnel department are too good. Seeing that they are about to gather for an outing, they even asked me to deliver the materials. They know they are bullying me, who has no background."

"We're all still young, it doesn't matter if we do more..." Lan Yi wanted to persuade Chen Yuan to open up, but just said something before she silenced under her complaining gaze.

"It's just that you are always like this, so after working for so many years, you are still a small employee. Xiao Wang from the secretarial department, her boyfriend is about the same age as you, and she has become the deputy section chief... Take care of her everywhere, in the company. I'm going to walk sideways...it doesn't look like me..."

The more she talked, the more she felt wronged, her well-dressed face was about to cry, Lan Yi looked at Chen Yuan at a loss, but she didn't know how to coax her, so she kept apologizing until she clumsily invited her to take her tomorrow Chen Yuancai managed to hold back her tears when she went to eat steak at the newly opened high-end restaurant in the next street.

After sending Chen Yuan back to the company, Lan Yicai turned around and walked to the bus stop, waiting anxiously for the bus. He only asked for an hour's leave with the company's leader, and now it's been 10-[-] minutes. It seems that the reward for full attendance is [-]% It's going to be a mess.

For Chen Yuan, Lan Yi really wants to continue to develop with her. Although she is not a gentle girl and has some small shortcomings, such as bad temper and strong vanity, Lan Yi doesn't care. I think it's because I don't know how to get along with girls that it always makes her angry, so I always give in to the pampered Chen Yuan, as long as we are together and tolerate each other, it will get better.

It's rare that someone is willing to live with him without a car or a house. He is already very grateful, and there is nothing to complain about.

It always rains this spring. After work, Lan Yi specially came to Chen Yuan's company early to wait for her to get off work. Half an hour later, Chen Yuan came out of the company's gate swaying on high heels. Lan Yi stepped forward and handed her the Chen Yuan took the umbrella and looked at the raindrops outside the umbrella and frowned. Lan Yi immediately understood, ran to the side of the road in the rain and waved desperately to the taxi.

Originally, it was particularly difficult to take a taxi on a rainy day, but now it was time to get off work. I saw taxis passing by in a hurry, but none of them had the intention of stopping.

Lan Yi was still wearing the crumpled suit with a thin shirt inside, and was soon drenched by the dense spring rain.

Really didn't get a taxi, Lan Yi looked at Chen Yuan hesitantly, the bus stop was not far away, the bus was running extraordinarily frequently during off-duty hours, and it took less than 10 minutes to reach the opposite street, but he really didn't want to I am ashamed to ask Chen Yuan to take the bus with her.

Gritting his teeth, Lan Yi turned his head and continued to wave at the passing cars on the side of the road.

A luxurious silver car parked in front of him, Lan Yi recognized this brand of car, even the price of the winged "B" logo on the front of the car was enough for an ordinary person like him to work for several years.

Such a gorgeous car made Lan Yi, who had no research on cars, couldn't help taking a few extra glances.

Unexpectedly, the window glass of the rear seat slowly lowered at this time.

Seeing the people sitting in the car clearly, Lan Yi's heart beat heavily, the slight dizziness made him feel a little unreal, staring at the man in the car in disbelief, the man inside also looked at him and smiled at him .

It is still the familiar face in memory, time has not changed him much, but the original sparkling earrings have disappeared from his ears, but he is still so handsome and resolute, wearing an expensive high-end suit, and his eyes are missing The arrogance and arrogance of his youth had become a little more unfathomable, and with a smile on his lips, he had completely become a mature and stable man.

"Lan Yi?"

With the familiar tone, Lan Yi hurriedly took a step back, his whole body tensed.

Mo Lingmai got out of the car, and the driver immediately took out a black umbrella and put it on for him.

"It's really you, I thought I made a mistake."

Lan Yi's hands trembled violently, and he stared stiffly at the man who was close at hand.

"Huh? Have you forgotten? We are classmates in high school."

Recognized, how could he not recognize, the person who gave him such a disgraceful past, the person who made his chest hurt whenever he remembered it in his lifetime, how could he not remember.

It turned out that it had been seven years, and the relationship between the two was just high school classmates... A drop of rain accidentally fell into Lan Yi's eyes, Lan Yi blinked, trying hard to squeeze the moisture out of his eyes.

"Well... I remember..." Lan Yi replied sullenly. He had thought about the scene where the two met countless times, happy and resentful, but never thought that it would be so plain and without any waves, as if it was really just in love. Ordinary classmates...or Mo Ling who has grown up has long regarded those pasts as trivial things between classmates...it is worthless to pursue.

"Hehe, you're still so shy." Mo Ling leaned forward slightly and smiled.

Lan Yi's face started to heat up, and he wanted to raise his head but he didn't dare to look directly at Mo Ling who was standing opposite him with a high profile.

"Having a taxi? It's hard to take a taxi in rainy weather. Where are you going? Let me give you a ride." Mo Ling smiled, in a completely formulaic tone.

"No, no need..." Lan Yi touched the rain on his face. Although he was a little slow to react, he could still hear the polite words. Besides, he got into the car with his wet clothes and dirty the high-end suit. The car mat is not good either.

"Darling, have you met someone you know?" Chen Yuan walked over with support, the look on her face seemed to be thicker than before, which further brought out her unique connotation.

"Huh? Mo Dong...Hello, I'm Chen Yuan from the Human Resources Department." Chen Yuan brushed her hair from her temples behind her ears, and generously extended her hand to Mo Ling, who also shook back with a smile on her face.

"Do you know each other?" Chen Yuan smiled decently and asked Lan Yi with her head tilted.

"Well... I used to be a classmate for a while..." From the corner of the eye, I could feel that Mo Ling was still looking down at him with his head down. Lan Yi tried his best to make his words light.

"You and Mo Dong are actually classmates?!" Chen Yuan exclaimed in a low voice, and the surprised expression was quickly replaced by a smile again, "Why didn't I hear you say that before?"

The rain was still falling, and Lan Yi, who was wet by the rain, was a little embarrassed in front of the two people holding umbrellas. He swallowed and said with difficulty, "It happened a long time ago... and there is nothing to mention ..."

"What do you mean there is nothing to mention? If I knew you were Mo Dong's classmate..."

"You two, it's raining heavily. If you don't mind, let me give you a ride."

Chen Yuan was interrupted by Mo Ling before she could finish her slightly complaining words.

Before Lan Yi had time to refuse, the skilled driver had already opened the car door.

Chen Yuan said "This is so embarrassing" and "It's too troublesome" while jumping into the limousine without looking back.

Lan also didn't want to ride in Mo Ling's car, he was afraid that in that small space, smelling the familiar smell of a man, he would be unable to restrain himself from thinking about the past, and this kind of luxury car with millions of dollars is not like theirs. People can afford it, why do you have to peep at things that are not in their world at all, he has long learned the reality, once you become delusional about people and things that are out of reach, what you get in return can only be Endless pain and humiliation.

Reluctantly, Chen Yuan had already entered the car first, and Mo Ling then bent down and sat in, blocking Chen Yuan tightly, making it impossible for Lan Yi to call her out, so he had to think, even if it was to take care of himself Girlfriend's mood, let's be patient, after all, it's only a few minutes away.

Compared with Ding Yiluo's domestically-made car, which is full of wind and often breaks down, this luxury car with three people in it is still spacious and comfortable, it is a paradise, but Lan Yi can't talk about enjoying it at all, he is stretched Try to keep yourself as small as possible, even so, you can still feel it, the drenched cheap suit still wets the silver-gray velvet upholstery, a little afraid to see Mo Ling's scolding eyes.

But Lan Yi seemed to be over-concerned. After getting into the car, Chen Yuan had a heated conversation with Mo Ling, and Mo Ling also responded gracefully and gently, as if completely forgetting that there was another person in the car. Lan Yi, who stood up straight desperately and was overwhelmed and nervous, looked like a fool.

When the car passed a bend, it listened steadily in front of the high-end restaurant.

Lan Yi felt that a century had passed, and he let out a heavy sigh of relief when he saw his destination.

"What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable?" Mo Ling who stopped talking with Chen Yuan turned his head, put his hand on Lan Yi's arm casually, and asked with a smile.

The warm body temperature immediately spread into Lan Yi's skin, and he withdrew his arm violently as if he had been scalded.

The inside of the car was quiet, and Lan Yi also knew that the reaction just now was too strong. Faced with Chen Yuan's astonished expression, he was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly opened the car door to escape from the suffocating car.

"Thank you." After the other two came out, Lan Yi walked around to Chen Yuan and said to Mo Ling in a muffled voice.

"You're welcome," Mo Ling replied concisely, but turned his head and stared at Chen Yuan, who was handsome and extraordinary, with a charming smile, "It was a pleasure chatting with you, but it's a pity that time is too tight... In terms of time..."

"If you don't mind, let's eat together. You and Lan Yi haven't seen each other for so long, so you should catch up." Chen Yuan was obviously very excited when she heard Mo Ling's words, and generously invited Mo Ling to have dinner together.

"Isn't that good, I'm interrupting your date." Facing Mo Ling's brighter smiling face, Chen Yuan almost looked straight at her, and shook her head resolutely, "Why, don't disturb at all, we welcome it. "

Mo Ling was not being polite, she nodded slightly to the driver behind her, and the driver drove away knowingly, "Then it's better to be respectful than obedient, today's meal is my treat, let's go in." Be a gentleman to Chen Yuan The act of inviting in made Chen Yuan even more happy, and happily walked into the magnificent restaurant.

From the beginning to the end, Chen Yuan never glanced at Lan Yi, so naturally he didn't notice the stiff expression on his face. Seeing the two people walking into the restaurant one after the other, he could only follow quickly after being left alone.

Chen Yuan has already invited him so kindly, so it is definitely impossible for him to say anything, but he doesn't know what Mo Ling is going to do. Could it be that he has completely changed his bad habits and returned to being gentle and elegant in the past few years? nice guy?Lan Yi was a little uncertain for a while.

As soon as Mo Ling with outstanding appearance and noble temperament entered the door, he attracted the attention of many people in the hall. Chen Yuan also had proper makeup. She wore a light blue professional dress and seven centimeter high heels. He raised his head and chest, slowed down his walking speed a little and walked side by side with Mo Ling. At first glance, he thought they were lovers or good friends.

In comparison, Lan Yi, who was dingy behind the two of them, looked a lot more downcast. Although Lan Yi looked fair, and his thin body was well-proportioned after development, he was still wet after being baptized by the rain just now. The not-so-obedient suit was even wrinkled when it was half-dry, and the soft black hair was also attached to his forehead, with occasional water droplets dripping down, making him look particularly attractive when he was following two glamorous people. Suddenly.

Under the envious or different eyes of others, Lan Yi finally bite the bullet and walked to the end of the restaurant, the luxurious VIP rooms of the restaurant hurt his eyes.

Exquisite food was served one by one, but Lan Yi had no appetite at all. The other two were still chatting enthusiastically, and even Lan Yi, who had a very low EQ, felt a crisis.

Seeing Chen Yuan's flamboyant smile and ambiguous physical contact from time to time, Lan Yi began to sweat anxiously on his forehead, before he could think of what to say, he opened his mouth without thinking to interrupt the conversation between the two.

"that……"

"Ok?"

Mo Ling, who was listening to Chen Yuan's words, turned his head and waited intently for his next words.

"That...girlfriend, are you and your girlfriend on good terms? I heard from Yiluo that you are getting engaged"

Lan Yi moved his mouth, opening his mouth with some difficulty.

Mo Ling shook the clear goblet in his hand, and paused for a while, "...I went to the United States alone with my injuries, and I didn't know her well. She gave me a lot of help. I feel that I am very lucky to meet her... "

"Au... Ao..." Lan Yi forced his face muscles to smile, seven years is really enough to fall in love with or forget someone, the reality is really frank and a bit cruel, he smiled helplessly in his heart, watching The self-confessed tension just now was really inferior, "Happiness is just..." The soft answer seemed to be talking to himself.

"Huh?" Mo Ling didn't seem to hear clearly, and while gesturing to the waiter to pour red wine for Lan Yi, he stared at him with a smile on his face, "What about you? How have you been these years?"

"I'm fine too..." Lan Yi didn't have the courage to look back at Mo Ling, looking at the red wine slowly rising in the goblet, with a dull expression.

"Where is the high school now?"

"...Zhengde Development Company..." Lan Yi replied dryly, the temperature in the box was appropriate, and the wet suit was almost dried by body temperature, but now he felt his face was getting hot.

Mo Ling thought for a while, and seemed to have never heard of this small company, so he continued to ask, "...I just came back, and I don't know much about the company group here. What exactly does your company do?"

"Ah... no, no, I'm just an employee who works there, and it's a small company, not famous." Lan Yi waved his hand, smiled awkwardly, tried to pretend to be normal, and felt embarrassed , compared with the elegantly dressed Mo Ling on the opposite side, sweating from shame on the tip of his nose.

"Oh~" Mo Ling nodded thoughtfully, "The development prospect of a small company is not so optimistic. If you want, you can come to our company... You also know that our company's benefits and benefits are very good..."

Mo Ling's expression was very sincere, without contempt at all, but Lan Yi felt awkward no matter what he listened to. Ignoring Chen Yuan and nodding fiercely at him, Lan Yi politely refused, "Let's just forget it...it's pretty good in that company, thank you."

"Oh?" Mo Ling raised his eyebrows, seemed surprised by Lan Yi's answer, then nodded understandingly, "Okay, if you need it, you can come to me."

"In that case..." Mo Ling raised his hand and looked at the shiny brand-name watch on his wrist, "I'm going to a dinner party in a while, so I'll take my leave first, and order whatever you want, I've already Ask the waiter to credit me, and we will chat when we have time."

Lan Yi nodded indiscriminately, stood up politely, but Mo Ling handed over the business card, and watched his back leave.

"Hmph!" Lan Yi hadn't looked away from Mo Ling's back when she heard Chen Yuan's dissatisfied moan. She folded her arms with both hands and slumped back on the chair, rattling the dishes on the table. ring.

"What's the matter?" Asked cautiously, Chen Yuan's face was unkind, and Lan Yi knew that she was angry again, but she didn't know why.

"Mr. Mo asked you to come to work at Mo's, why did you refuse?" Chen Yuan turned to look at Lan Yi with a dark face, "Don't you know how difficult it is to get in there? You just wasted such a good opportunity!"

"Why do you accept other people's favors for no reason, and besides... I have a job... why do I need to change the good ones..." Lan Yi picked up the knife and fork on both sides, and cut the juicy beef clumsily, a little absent-minded.

"How can the small company you work for compare with Mo's? Such a good opportunity... really..." Chen Yuan complained coldly,

"Small companies also have a promising future. Besides, I don't have a college degree, so I will make people laugh when I go there." Lan Yi explained to Chen Yuan in a good-tempered manner.

"Hmph, you've been working in such a small company for so many years and you're still a small employee, aren't you a little laughed at?"

Chen Yuan spoke bluntly and hit Lan Yi's pain point.

"..." Lan also didn't talk to her, she lowered her head and concentrated on dealing with the steak under her hand.

"Just know to eat!"

Chen Yuan glared at Lan Yi angrily. Normally, no matter how angry he was, the man in front of him always whispered to make her happy, but now he acted like he didn't want to talk to her. Wearing high-heeled shoes "thumping" and walking towards the restaurant door.

The consequences of ignoring women are disastrous, Lan Yi finally summed up such a sentence.

Since that day, no matter how nice Lan Yi was, Chen Yuan has always been in a state of anger, calling her in a cold tone, and always resolutely refusing to ask her out on weekends.

More or less ignoring Chen Yuan's meaning, seeing that the frequency of contact is getting less and less, Lan Yi, who doesn't want to end this hard-won relationship easily, has already turned around in a hurry.

So today, when Lan Yi received a phone call from Chen Yuan, he couldn't help but be terrified, afraid that it was a breakup call, and finally answered the phone hesitantly. Unexpectedly, Chen Yuan's voice on the phone was very hoarse. While crying, Lan Yi suddenly became anxious, afraid of any accident, after asking her where she was, she even forgot to ask for leave, and went straight to Chen Yuan's company.

When Lan Yi arrived, Chen Yuan was already waiting at the door. When she saw Lan Yi who was out of breath, Chen Yuan cried and threw herself into his arms. rain.

Seeing Chen Yuan crying miserably, Lan Yi didn't want to mention how distressed she was, her hands embracing the woman's soft body patted her back strangely.

Many people around began to pay attention, fearing that it would have a bad influence on Chen Yuan, Lan Yi didn't bother to ask her why she was crying, so he hurriedly took a taxi and left. Not too slow, within 10 minutes, the two of them were already sitting on the sofa in the apartment.

Ding Yiluo has been in some trouble recently. He is running back and forth. Ding Erer is still in kindergarten, so there are only Lan Yi and Chen Yuan in the apartment. Lan Yi is usually very hardworking. Although the furniture in the apartment is simple, it is now clean. Even the clean ones can see the past.

Considerately handing the handkerchief soaked in warm water to Chen Yuan, Chen Yuan took it, wiped her smudged face, and then slowly stopped crying.

"What's the matter? What's the matter?" Lan Yi returned to the sofa, still maintaining the usual style, with his legs together, his thin white hands resting on his knees, and asked cautiously.

"I don't want to work there anymore...I want to resign...there is too much bullying..." Chen Yuan pursed her lips and began to wipe her tears as she spoke.

It turns out that the glint company where Chen Yuan works has two types of employees: contract system and enterprise system. Although the wages of the employees of the same system are not much lower than those of the enterprise system, they do not have the opportunity to be promoted like the enterprise system employees. Chen Yuan then It was the former, so those contract employees, including Chen Yuan, tried their best to become enterprise employees.

Although every year the company distributes quotas for the enterprise system to various departments, they are pitifully few, and it is difficult for everyone to grab them even if they are overwhelmed. A relative of Chen Yuan's family is a small official in glint company. , plus she is also capable, and her performance has been very outstanding in the past few years, upgrading to an enterprise system can be regarded as a certainty.

Unexpectedly, something happened when the list was reported to the upper level. All the employees had passed the review, and she was the only one who postponed the review. Chen Yuan and her family members were in a hurry. After many inquiries, they got some vague information. , it turns out that the list seems to have been taken over by a high-level approval officer from the head office.

It stands to reason that the high-level leaders would not interfere too much in such trivial matters in the past, but this time they are obviously embarrassing her. After thinking about it, it must be the unselected employees of the same department who made things bad.

"It must be that little slut from the secretary department!" Chen Yuan stared at her red eyes, angrily,

"Isn't it just relying on the boyfriend of her deputy section chief, she always dislikes me, but this time she was banned, she must have done it!".

"Xiaoyuan, please don't be angry, think about it carefully, maybe there is some misunderstanding..." Lan Yi tried her best to comfort her, but she didn't know what to do.

"Wuwu... My life is so miserable... This may be my only chance... How can this be..." Chen Yuan's red and swollen eyes began to shed tears again.

"You, don't cry, let's think of a way, there must be another way." Lan Yi looked at Chen Yuan's tears and was at a loss, stretched out his hand with a handkerchief to wipe her tears, Chen Yuan But with a flash, Lan Yi was caught in the air, staring at him sadly,

"Is there any way? What else can I do? It's the senior management of the head office who stopped me. Our family's connections are not worthy of shining shoes for others!"

Lan Yi rubbed his withdrawn hands in embarrassment, "...Do you know who that high-level person is?...Why don't we ask him to give him some gifts?"

"It's okay if you know who it is... Even this matter is only found out through a lot of connections." Chen Yuan angrily crumpled the handkerchief in his hand and threw it back on the coffee table, "They all bully me It does not matter!"

"Don't, don't be angry... If you don't get promoted this time, there will be a next time... Don't worry too much..." If I have the ability to help, I don't have to watch my girlfriend being wronged. It's a pity that I'm poor now, It seems that the only thing left to do is to wait for Ding Yiluo to come back and ask him if he knows anyone... This is the first time Lan Yi deeply experienced this sense of powerlessness.

"Next time, I don't know until the year of the monkey..." Chen Yuan lowered her head, looking more and more pitiful, "Maybe..."

"perhaps?"

"Hmm...maybe you can ask Mo Dong for help..." Chen Yuan raised her eyes and looked at Lan Yi expectantly, "Aren't you classmates with him? If you ask him, it will be fine. If Mo Dong comes forward It must be fine."

"...You mean to go to Mo Ling?" Lan Yi was a little embarrassed, because there was an incident between him and Mo Ling before.
