Unexpected joy

Boyfriend seems informal, and husband is too frivolous. Only lover is more formal than the former, more stable than the latter, and has a lot of weight.

Next to him, Han Jiang was still chatting with Ye Ying, but Shi Heting's thoughts drifted to nowhere, he only felt that a heart was so light that it could float into the clouds, but it was so heavy that it fell to the ground and could not be lifted up.

Lover - can I afford it?

The two of them didn't chat for a long time, Annie came to remind Ye Ying that the time was up and asked him to prepare.Ye Ying turned back and left, Han Jiang seemed to want to say something to him, so he opened his mouth, and saw Ye Ying turned around and gave him a blank look, and left with a drink in an embarrassing manner.

As soon as [-]:[-] came, the party officially started, the host went up to finish the show, and asked Ye Ying to come back up and speak.

He is dressed very formally today, with a neat tie, and a suit so flat that there are hardly any pleats. The cuffs are the pair of cufflinks that He Ting gave him a few days ago, which is low-key and just right.The chasing light hit him squarely, all the rays of light converged on him, and all eyes converged on him.

Shi Heting stood so close that he could almost see his almost transparent eyelashes under the light.His eyes were still calm and composed that Shi Heting was familiar with, and his tone of voice was not so impassioned, but it seemed to have the power to grab people's hearts.Shi Heting had seen him earnestly and attentively at work, but it was the first time he had seen him speak in front of so many people, which made people unable to take their eyes off.

His speech was not lengthy. He just summed up the company's performance this year, thanked the employees for their hard work and partners for their support, and finally concluded with a brief summary. He left the stage with applause.The host came on stage again, and the atmosphere really heated up.

Ye Ying stepped back off the stage and gently tugged on the tie with her hand: "It's too tight."

Shi Heting handed over a glass of wine: "Is it over?"

Ye Ying took it back: "Just go up and draw a prize when it's almost over."

Shi Heting looked around again: "I didn't see uncle today, won't he come to the annual meeting?"

"I didn't come here 800 years ago." Ye Ying took a sip of his wine, "Now I'm playing with my mother in Thailand."

"When did you leave?" Shi Heting wondered.Ye Yinghui usually goes home for dinner on weekends, and Shi Heting occasionally goes with him, but Ye Yinghui is busy during this time, so he doesn't necessarily remember to eat on weekends, let alone go home, so Shi Heting really doesn't care. know about their travels.

Ye Ying pondered for a moment: "It was noon the day before yesterday. I didn't know until I got there and sent me a WeChat message."

Shi Heting laughed and said: "Uncle and aunt are so chic, you really want to leave as soon as you say." He paused, "Speaking of which, I haven't been home for a long time, I'll go home tomorrow."

Ye Ying nodded back: "Do you want me to go with you?"

"It's okay, I'll go by myself."

Ye Ying paused for a moment, then replied softly: "Okay."

Most of the programs at the annual meeting are prepared by the people in the company. They don’t necessarily have any professional standards, but the atmosphere is very good. After all, it’s very interesting to watch people you know perform on the stage and show a side that you can’t usually see. .Especially a boy from the advertising department, who came to Ye's after graduation, and Ye Ying was the interviewer, so he was very impressed.I have been in the company for three years, and there is nothing too outstanding, but I have always been very down-to-earth, and I have not made any major mistakes. I usually look at a person who is quite stable, but I went to dance at the annual meeting. The movements and postures are very good. It's kind of professional.

While chatting with Ye Ying, Shi Heting occasionally glanced at the stage. He always felt that the person on the stage looked familiar, but he didn't remember who it was.

As the party drew to a close, it was time for the most practical part for the employees - the lottery draw.

The staff had already prepared a large box, which contained a bunch of plastic balls of different colors.Ye Yinghui drew colored balls from the box one by one according to the level and number of prizes, opened it and read out the number on it when he got it, and the person who was drawn happily came to the stage to receive the prize.

Shi Heting couldn't help but asked curiously a little girl standing a few steps away who was still familiar. She must have met several times in Ye Yinghui's company: "What's this number? Is it your job number?"

The girl was caught off guard by being accosted, and she couldn't help feeling a little nervous: "That's right, there are numbers on the invitation card..."

Shi Heting murmured thoughtfully.

It was almost ten o'clock in the end. Shi Heting didn't drink because he had to drive today, but Ye Yinghui was given a lot of alcohol by his subordinates and others. Fortunately, he was a good drinker and didn't show much face. So what happened, there is no such thing as drunk, but a little bit of drinking can be seen from the words.

While driving, Shi Heting was distracted by teasing him, thinking that Ye Yinghui, who had been drinking, was very amusing.Suddenly remembered the incident just now, and couldn't help asking Ye Yinghui about the whereabouts of her invitation: "I heard from the girl in your company that you must have an invitation to enter the annual meeting, so where is my invitation?"

Ye Ying answered without blushing and heartbeat: "Family members are all brought to the venue, what kind of invitation do you want?"

Shi Heting laughed twice, then gradually suppressed his smile, didn't tease Ye Ying back anymore, and concentrated on driving the car home.

The next day was the New Year's Day holiday, Shi Heting and Ye Yinghui slept together until after ten o'clock.Ye Ying thought about it after seven o'clock, but was dragged back to the bed by Shi Heting, and fell asleep again in his arms.

Probably because she was in a good mood after getting enough sleep, after Ye Ying got up, she picked up the few ingredients left in the refrigerator, made two simple versions of Yangzhou fried rice, and sent Shi Heting out of the house after eating, very lazy He waved his hand and went back, without any nostalgia.

Shi Heting looked at the closed door with a grin, and then slowly turned the key to go to the garage.

I knocked on the door for a long time but no one answered. I don't know if they are all sleeping or no one is at home.

He didn't come back for a long time, and he almost didn't find the house key buried in a pile of messy keys.

"Mom? Dad?" he called while changing his shoes, but no one responded.

After changing his shoes, he walked upstairs and downstairs before confirming the fact that there was no one in the house.Parents are not here, the nanny is not there, not even their big golden retriever is in the cage.

He sat on the sofa, opened WeChat and sent a message to Shi Shi's mother asking where she was, but he didn't get a reply for a long time, so he reluctantly put the phone aside, leaned back on the back of the sofa, and stared at the ceiling.

In fact, he suddenly proposed to go home this time. One reason was that he had not been back to see his parents for a long time, and another more important reason was that he felt pressure.

Ye Yinghui made him feel the pressure.

Ye Yinghui did not say anything, and never made any request, and there was no conflict between the two of them, everything seemed to be fine.

But he calls him lover and family.

It's not that Shi Heting has never been in a relationship, he has also met a girl who likes him very much and really wants to marry him, but often before the other party proposes, he will break up when he senses the sign.He doesn't think that he is a so-called scumbag, and he will fulfill his duties as a boyfriend during the relationship, and he will not play with each other's feelings, let alone step on two boats.

He just felt that his feelings for the other party were not enough to support the two of them to cross the watershed between love and marriage and truly move towards marriage.

So he is unwilling to fall in love with someone who is too serious, because it is always difficult to end decently.

And in case of breaking up, the years of friendship between the Ye family and the Shi family will only make things more troublesome.

He frowned slightly, closed his eyes, put his arms on them, and felt more and more upset.
