between friendship and love

By the time it was time to eat, it was already dark.The table was full of dishes, Yang Lin opened a case of beer and each poured a glass.Colleague A said: "Is Rong Rong drinking too much today? Will she just follow the trend and not leave when she gets drunk?"

Angrily, Rongrong patted him on the back, "You will laugh at me! I won't do that."

"Hey, I'm just teaching you how to do this. Lin Zi is such a good man, if you don't take the initiative, he will be snatched away by others, and you won't have a place to cry when the time comes."

Rong Rong blushed, Yang Lin smiled and said, "Wen Zi, you are the only one who is not forgiving, and Rong Rong is such a good person. I am the one who can't afford it."

"Bragging." Colleague A drank half a glass of wine to get more excited, "I think you don't like to talk to anyone, do you have someone in your heart? Is it really Rongrong? Hahahaha... How about confessing your love today, let's do it Your witness."

Colleague C knocked him on the head, "If you don't say a word, you will die."

Colleague B also nodded, "That's right, the food is so delicious, Lin Zi, your cooking skills are getting better and better, why don't you open a shop under the company, I promise to take care of it every day. The food in the company cafeteria is beyond words!"

"The dishes are made by Xiaotian, and I'm just helping today. Ah, the cold dishes are served by me." Yang Lin smiled, "I haven't officially introduced them yet, this is Qitian who grew up with me, they are my colleagues , Hao Wen, Zhang Yixuan, Ding Yu, and Rong Rong."

Qi □□ and the others smiled, "We met last time, I'm sorry, I didn't have time to say hello at that time." He thought about what happened that day again, and always felt a little embarrassed.

The table is not particularly big, so there are a few more people and they can only sit crowded together. Qi Tian and Yang Lin are very close to each other, and their arms touch and rub against each other from time to time.

Although he was used to having skin-to-skin contact with him, he still felt very embarrassed when there were so many people, and he only felt that his body temperature had risen a little.

Hao Wen asked curiously, "What does Xiao Qi do?"

Qi Tian was embarrassed to answer, and shook his head with courage.

"Didn't you go to work? Haha, it's good to be free for a while. We all want to have a vacation. Let's go and play together next time we have a vacation."

Zhang Yixuan asked: "Did you really grow up together?"

"Yes...we are the same age..."

"Huh? Linzi, you look too old. In comparison, you look four or five years older than Xiao Qi."

Yang Lin stared at him, "So-and-so is being called uncle in person, who is older?"

Everyone at the table burst into laughter, Zhang Yixuan's face turned pale, "Linzi, you are still so vicious, I can't even speak against you."

"I didn't say that the person calling you that way is already forty, so I'm saving face for you."

"...He is definitely myopic! Absolutely!"

The more they drank, the more lively the atmosphere became.Several people opened up the chatter box and began to reveal embarrassing things to each other.Qi Tian couldn't get in the conversation, but because the man helped pick up the food or paid attention with his eyes from time to time, he didn't feel uncomfortable, but he was very happy to listen.

"Haha, do you still remember the female boss of Xiangzhou Cloud Company? The last time I visited our company, Lin Zi received her, and I have been asking him out since I got back. Lin Zi, is there such a thing?"

"...You know this too..."

Hao Wen rolled his eyes, "I'm Bai Xiaosheng from our company, so there's nothing I don't know."

Yang Lin laughed, "Is he a gossip guy?"

"Hey, when she signed the contract, she appointed you to go. It is said that she signed it at the hotel. Honestly, did you lose your dignity?"

Ding Yu said in a timely manner: "There are girls here, so you can talk less about the restricted ones."

Rongrong drank a few more glasses of wine, and her face was flushed. Hearing what he said at this time, she leaned over with bright eyes, "I want to know too."

Ding Yu choked and almost vomited blood.

"Hahahaha Rongrong, you are too good, Lin Zi, no one will give you an excuse now, tell me quickly, what happened afterwards?"

Yang Lin calmly ate the food, "It's nothing, I don't have that kind of thought, so she just gave up."

The gossip trio was a little disappointed, Hao Wen smiled again seeing Rongrong's face, "Forget about us being disappointed, you, who has a crush on Lin Zi, are you disappointed to hear that he didn't lose his body?"

Everyone was stunned, Rongrong lowered her head with a blushing face.

Ding Yu knocked his head, "You have talked too much."

"Okay, I was wrong, Rong Rong, don't mind."

Rongrong raised her head and stared at him, "I don't mind!" She smiled sweetly, "But if you punish yourself three times, I can leave this chapter behind and forgive you once."

"Then you still mind, I won't be able to go back if I drink any more." Hao Wen quickly picked up the bowl and ran to the kitchen to fill up the rice, and then ran back in a hurry, flattering him: "Miss, do you want to eat? I Help you get rich."

Rongrong handed him the bowl unceremoniously, "Half a bowl is fine, too much to eat."

"Order!"

After eating dinner for two hours, everyone was satisfied and sat on the sofa chatting.Qi Tian and Yang Lin cleaned up the dishes together, and put the remaining dishes in the refrigerator.One of them washed the dishes, and the other mopped the kitchen floor and cleaned the stove.Yang Lin finished first, and stood by to watch Qi Tian wash the dishes, Qi Tian smiled and said, "Go and accompany them, I'll do the washing later."

"Yeah." The man thought for a while, and said: "What they said just now was a joke, don't take it to heart, I have nothing to do with Rongrong."

"Ah? I didn't take it seriously." Qi Tian smiled, "And if it's true, congratulations, Auntie will definitely like her very much."

The man behind him didn't speak or move for a long time.Qi Tian turned around in doubt, and saw the man's lonely face.He wiped his hands nervously and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I shouldn't expect you to be jealous at all. I take it for granted." The man smiled, turned around and walked out in disappointment.Qi Tian grabbed his arm, "I'm not..."

"Haven't you washed up yet?" Hao Wen poked his head over, "We're going to play cards, Linzi, come on. Rong Rong said she didn't want to play after drinking too much."

"it is good."

Slowly letting go of his arm, Qi Tian knew that what he said just now had offended him, so he couldn't help being a little distressed.He absently put the laundry into the cupboard, and when he walked to the living room, he saw them playing cards happily. The man had a smile on his face, and he looked no different from usual.

After saying hello, he walked to the study and sat down in front of the computer desk.Opening the document, I was still imagining a very compact plot in the afternoon, and I was not in the mood to write it at this time, so I could only turn it out and check it to see if there were any mistakes.

I couldn't concentrate, I kept thinking about the expression on the man's face just now.

Was it hurt by what he said?

Even though the man kept telling him that he liked him, he never felt that the two of them could really spend their lives together.Yang Lin's conditions are so good, and the family is an only child, and one day he will get married and have children.In his dreams before, he always dreamed that on an unknown day, he walked to the street and saw a man hugging his beautiful wife, holding a cute child in his hand, and greeting him with a smile.And I was always alone, alone.

So it's not that I don't like it, it's just that I don't dare to bear the consequences in my dream.

The heartache when he woke up is still fresh in his memory, the feeling that he can only hug himself, and there is no one to talk to and rely on, the uncomfortable feeling will make people go crazy.

At that time, he thought, he should work hard to find a wife, it doesn't matter if he is not so beautiful, it doesn't matter if he is not so considerate, as long as he stands by his side and can rely on each other.

In that case, maybe when he finally sees that picture in reality, he won't be sad, maybe he can laugh and chat with the man a little bit.

He breathed a sigh of relief. He usually seldom communicates with people, and many things are just imaginary, and he has always believed that his ideas are correct. This time will be no exception.And he is really eager to have such a family.

There was a knock on the door, and Rongrong smiled at him, "Watching cards is too boring, Brother Qi, can I chat with you?"

Qi Tian quickly gave up his seat to her, his face flushed, "I don't know how to chat..."

"It's okay, just talk casually, don't be nervous." Seeing the document on the screen, Rongrong asked curiously, "Hey, Brother Qi, did you write this?"

"Ah, yes...it's nothing to write casually for fun."

"What type?"

"Spiritual."

Rongrong praised: "That's amazing, I want to read it when I have time, will it be scary?"

Qi Tian scratched his head nervously, "It should be okay...my grandfather opened a bookstore when he was still alive, and he left a lot of books on this topic. I like to read since I was a child...I will also fantasize when I grow up... "

"It's a great feeling!" Rongrong smiled, "Actually, Brother Yang didn't seem too happy when we were coming today, saying that you would be afraid of strangers."

Qi Tian was taken aback for a moment, did he care so much about his own feelings?

"I always feel that your relationship is very good. Brother Yang usually likes to laugh like Wen Zi and the others, but every time you are mentioned, you will have a very serious feeling."

"Does he often mention me..."

"Often." Rongrong tilted her head and thought for a while, "Because he usually doesn't mention others, at most he will tell us about you. In fact, you don't have to be afraid, they are easy to get along with, although often Just kidding, but no ill intentions."

Qi Tian didn't expect that the girl would turn around to comfort him, he felt warm and said with a smile: "I also think you are easy to get along with, although you can't get in the way, but sitting on the sidelines and listening is also very happy."

"That's good." Rongrong smiled sweetly, and stuck out her tongue again, "Although what Brother Zhang said was exaggerated just now, you really look quite different in age."

"He's only five days older than me."

"Wow, that's a veritable childhood sweetheart, I'm so envious!"

The girl is gentle and enthusiastic, with a hearty smile.Qi Tian was guided by her, the previous tension gradually dissipated, and he talked more, but his face was still a little hot.

Four people outside were playing cards with stickers. When the game ended, Hao Wen's face was covered with stickers.He acted like a zombie to Rong Rong, scaring Rong Rong to hide behind Qi Tian.A few people ate some fruit, and the four men ran to the balcony to smoke a cigarette, and then prepared to go home.

Several people waved goodbye to Qi Tian.Zhang Yixuan exaggeratedly exclaimed: "Xiao Tiantian, let's go, I will come to your house next time for a meal."

Qi Tian was extremely unsuitable for this intimate title, after a long while, they closed the door and left.
