black eyes

Before Ye Cong came back, their affairs had been discussed almost.Mori Zimao felt that the atmosphere was not right, he got up and said to Gu Ming: "Then the talk is almost done, let's go first, and we will directly arrange time to sign the contract in a few days."

There is reluctance in Gu Ming's eyes, because his purpose is not just to talk about cooperation, he has too much to say to Ye Cong, and there are too many things between them that need to be explained and clarified in the past five years.

But he still nodded rationally: "Okay, I will trouble you two later." He stood up and stretched out his right hand to Pu Cheng.

Facing Gu Ming who hesitated to speak and tried his best to endure several times, Pu Cheng's reaction was too calm and calm, and could even be described as indifference.He probably didn't expect that when he saw this person again after five years, his heart was as calm as water, without even a single wave.

He calmly held the other party's outstretched hand. In only two seconds, when the form was in place, he quickly withdrew his hand: "You're welcome, happy cooperation."

When he came to the entrance, Mori Zimao saw that Ye Cong was hesitating in the kitchen, neither coming out nor staying inside, he smiled and said hello: "Xiao Cong, let's go, let's play together when we have time."

Hearing the greeting from behind, Ye Cong immediately turned around, and then he saw A Sen and the person he didn't know, and he smiled awkwardly: "I'm really sorry, Brother Sen, it's not the time to come back, I'm bothering you to talk about things."

"No, don't bother." Asen stepped forward and patted Ye Cong's shoulder enthusiastically, "Today is mainly to see how Pu Cheng is recovering. I have worked hard for you these few days."

Ye Cong returned a polite smile to Asen, and then he raised his eyes to meet the gaze of the person behind Asen. This person smiled politely and exuded an approachable aura, but Ye Cong saw in his eyes hostility.

The two nodded slightly, as a greeting.

"That's fine, let's go first." Asen pointed to the door, Gu Ming opened the door first, and left with him.

After they left, Ye Cong heard the conversation coming from the living room, Wan Shuyan lowered his voice, thinking that he didn't want others to hear the conversation.After thinking about it, he decided that it would be better to leave first, to give up space to others, so he walked briskly to the door to change his shoes.

Seeing him coming out, Pu Cheng didn't know that he was planning to leave, so he said to him: "Come and sit down."

"No...I'm going out to buy some seasonings, you guys talk first." Knowing that he was in the way, he found an excuse to buy seasonings, and went out before Pu Cheng could speak, stomping secretly when he closed the door: the key is still in the cupboard Come on, I forgot to take it.

Only Wan Shuyan and Pu Cheng were left in the room, the sound of closing the door stunned the two of them, and they didn't speak for a while.

"What's the relationship between you and Ye Cong?" Wan Shuyan still couldn't help asking.

"Based on the relationship you have seen, he came to take care of me for a few days, it's as simple as that." Pu Cheng's expression did not change, his deep eyes were fixed on Wan Shuyan.

Wan Shuyan was looking at him, but after meeting his unquestionable eyes, he sighed deeply: "Gu Ming's father passed away."

Even though he was as calm as water a moment ago, at this moment all his composure suddenly collapsed, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he straightened his back: "Dead...?"

Wan Shuyan nodded silently, "He probably wanted to tell you about this."

Hearing this, Pu Cheng sat up straight and relaxed slightly, and then he smiled helplessly as if he had suddenly realized: "I also know that it is not as simple as talking about cooperation."

Wan Shuyan's face was serious, he looked up at Pu Cheng who was thinking, "Would you consider starting over with him?"

Pu Cheng was somewhat puzzled by this question, he unhurriedly picked up the teacup on the coffee table and took a sip, "It's been so many years since I broke up with him, it's been a long time ago, how can we be reunited? "

Wan Shuyan didn't speak, he just stared at the corner of the sofa next to Pu Cheng for a long time.During the days when Pu Cheng and Gu Ming broke up, he saw with his own eyes a 1.8-meter-high healthy and handsome man who looked thinner from 140 jin to 100 jin.At that time, Pu Cheng's appearance was like a skeleton hanging his breath, which made people feel horrible, but he had to be full of pity.

But their breakup was not voluntary, but forced by Gu Ming's father, Gu Yongyuan, who forced them to die, so they had to re-examine their relationship, and finally chose to part ways.

Pu Cheng hated Gu Yongyuan, he had never hated anyone so much in his life.

"Maybe you're right." Wan Shuyan understood what Pu Cheng was thinking, and before he said the next sentence, his expression became extremely cold, causing his tone to freeze: "But the biggest obstacle between you is now gone. there is none left."

The attitude of this sentence clearly does not seem to be speaking for Gu Ming.It seems to be a reminder to Pu Cheng: Don't forget what you have suffered before.

Ye Cong wandered outside for more than half an hour, and this was the first time he felt so embarrassed that he seemed superfluous in someone else's house.He made an excuse to buy condiments, so in order not to wear clothes, he actually bought dried peppers, Chinese prickly ash and so on.But he also knew that he couldn't stay at Pu Cheng's house anymore, he could take care of his own life, and he would cause trouble for others by being here.

It wasn't until Pu Cheng called him and asked him why he hadn't come back, that he leisurely came back with a small bag of ingredients and knocked on the door.

Pu Cheng who opened the door asked him suspiciously: "Didn't I give you the key?"

"Here." Ye Cong who entered the door picked up the key from the cabinet and waved it in front of Pu Cheng. "Are you done talking?"

"En." Pu Cheng closed the door casually, walked around Ye Cong, and made room for him to change his shoes.

When Ye Cong bent over to pick up the shoes, he looked around the living room, but he didn't see anyone. Before going to the kitchen, he turned around and asked Pu Cheng: "Where's Brother Shuyan?"

"Leaving." Pu Cheng casually replied, "Just leaving."

Originally Ye Cong wanted to ask why he didn't stay for dinner, but soon he gave up, and Pu Cheng didn't stay Wan Shuyan, he said this a bit too much of himself as the master.

Pu Cheng came in to help when he was washing the vegetables. The kitchen was not very wide, and it was a bit crowded for two people to stand.He moved some space for Pu Cheng, then turned his head and glanced at him, and asked nonchalantly, "Who is that one I haven't seen today?"

"Gu Ming, my high school and college classmates." Pu Cheng handed him the washed green vegetable leaves.

"Oh." Ye Cong nodded seriously, but he actually wanted to say: This person seems to have a big opinion on me.But thinking about it, he couldn't do such a thing as sowing discord.

Not long after dinner, Ye Cong came out after taking a shower and Pu Cheng looked at his phone on the sofa.He stood at the door of the bathroom, stroked his wet hair with a handkerchief, and walked to sit beside Pu Cheng. "You are recovering well now, and I won't come over tomorrow."

Pu Cheng hadn't realized what he meant at that time, and looked at him with doubts, "What?"

"I said, you're almost recovered now, I won't come over tomorrow." Ye Cong repeated patiently, and continued to wipe his hair with a veil.

Pu Cheng put down the phone and sat up straight: "Did today's incident make you unhappy?"

What's wrong with that?Ye Cong smiled and shook his head: "I just want to say that my mission is complete, and I'm going to retire."

Hearing this, Pu Cheng smiled softly, and said to Ye Cong, "Thank you, Ye Cong."

"Don't be so polite, it should be done." He got up and took out a key from his bag and handed it back to Pu Cheng: "Return everything to Zhao."

Pu Cheng took the key and held it in his hand. He raised his eyes and looked at Ye Cong standing in front of him: "In the future, I will come to play when I have free time. I am usually at home on weekends when I have nothing to do."

"Okay, as long as I'm free, I'll definitely come." Ye Cong replied bluntly, and sat next to him again, watching variety shows with him.In fact, for the past ten days or so, watching TV on the sofa every night is also a very comfortable and relaxing life, and he seems to have gotten used to this kind of life setting.

Pu Cheng maintained the good habit of going to bed early, and got up and went to bed around ten o'clock.After Ye Cong packed up the things he was going to take away tomorrow, he lay on the sofa and looked at WeChat Moments. The first one was Yang Huguo's news, a BBQ selfie with his friends, smiling brightly.Scroll down and see Pucheng's dynamic, only three words: Thank you.

Did you say it to yourself?He thought to himself: It should be, probably, maybe.Then, immersed in the joy of his own imagination, he fell asleep in a daze.

The next day, as usual, he got up and cooked a rich breakfast. Pu Cheng woke up very early today, so I don't know if he meant to see him off.In fact, the two are in the same unit and will meet again soon, but this wave of operations made him very reluctant to leave.

Before leaving, when Pu Cheng sent him to the door, he said solemnly: "Thank you."

"You said that last night." Ye Cong responded to him with a smile, holding his own things in his hand.

Pu Cheng said very seriously: "Say it again."

In any case, these words warmed Ye Cong's heart, and he smiled back: "Send me a message if you have something to do, and I will reply as soon as I see it."

Since going to work these few days, he always looks for opportunities to go to the construction management office to see if Pu Cheng has come to work.

Several days have passed since he came back from his house, but Pu Cheng has not contacted him, nor has he contacted the other party.It stands to reason that with his recovery status, he should be able to go to work soon.In fact, it was just a matter of greeting, but he seemed to prefer to receive a message from Pu Cheng himself.

The countdown to the start of the school year has begun, but the weather is getting hotter.On this day, when he came to the management office to stamp the formalities with a stack of materials as usual, he met Pu Cheng as he wished.He came to work today.
