Know what I mean

Qi Shi'an and Shen Duoyi have accumulated a lot of debts after not going to work seriously for more than half a month.Especially Shen Duoyi, he started to ask for leave just after he was promoted to supervisor, and the situation on the desk was already unreadable.

"Director Shen, I have printed two work schedules and put them on your desk. Can you see if there is anything that needs to be changed?" Come and arrange work quickly.

Shen Duoyi read it quickly: "The time to interview two clients in the morning is relatively tight, and the training meeting in the afternoon will be postponed for half an hour. There are no other problems, thank you."

Just as he was talking, Zhang Yiming walked in from the outside, and after dismissing the administrative assistant, he asked, "How is it? Is your grandfather recovering well?"

"Well, it's relatively stable at the moment." In the doctor's words, a kind of weak stability, but it's still stable.Shen Duoyi made Zhang Yiming a cup of tea and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhang, I have been asking you to do the work for me recently."

Zhang Yiming replied: "You're being polite, anyway, it's making profits for the company. By the way, I'm going to Zhesi to hold an exchange meeting tomorrow. It's your first time to participate, so you have to prepare carefully. You're very wandering."

Shen Duoyi asked curiously: "Isn't communication the main thing? How do you feel that there will be a verbal confrontation?"

"The exchange meeting is not a forum for hundreds of schools. It is essentially a discussion of swords in Huashan. Everyone competes for resources and reputation." Zhang Yiming finished his tea and got up to go back to the office. Lie down and let her whip the corpse, if you gain the upper hand, you should stop in moderation."

Shen Duoyi laughed and said: "I remember, it must be right to be a gentleman."

After a busy day, I still went back to the hospital to stay in bed at night.Elder Shen had already put on a thin sweater. He sat on the head of the bed, hugging the radio and listening to "Heroes with White Eyebrows", so as not to cause trouble to others.

Shen Duoyi and Qi Shi'an worked overtime in the living room outside, with documents and contracts spread out on the table, and real-time transaction data were tracked on their respective computer screens.

Qi Shi'an seemed to be whispering: "What did the doctor say at that time?"

Shen Duoyi also replied in a whisper: "The doctor said that the situation has stabilized for the time being, and all the prescribed fluids have been transfused, and he also explained some precautions that the family members need to know."

The doctor also said that the most important thing is to make the elderly happy.The hint behind this is easy to understand, but Shen Duoyi would rather not hear it.

"It means that you are going to be discharged from the hospital?" Qi Shi'an has always been cautious, "If you don't want to observe any more, don't worry."

Shen Duoyi said: "According to what I mean, it is a long-term stay. In case of another illness, the doctors and nurses are close to each other, and the opportunity for rescue can be seized to the greatest extent. But grandpa is unwilling to live or die. He said that if he comes in a hurry, even It's no use staying by the doctor's side."

Qi Shi'an didn't refute. He remembered that time when he was talking about storytelling with Mr. Shen in the summer restaurant.

Shen Duoyi was panicked, but he said comforting words, but he didn't know whether to comfort Qi Shi'an or himself: "The doctor said that many patients are fine for several years after being discharged from the hospital. Grandpa doesn't want to stay here anymore. I think it's right when I think about it, if you spend your life and time in the hospital, what's the point of prolonging your life, just for one breath?"

Qi Shi'an caught Shen Duoyi in his arms: "Then observe for two more days, the exchange meeting will be over and it will be the National Day holiday. Let's take grandpa home and have a good time."

"Well, I haven't delivered the sweater I bought for grandpa. I'll bring it to you tomorrow."

"Don't give it to me." Qi Shi'an took the opportunity to invite, "There are so many days of National Day holidays, you go to the retirement center to give it to the old man yourself, and then stay for a meal."

Shen Duoyi nodded, and Qi Shi'an said again: "You don't need to treat it as a formal meeting with your parents, just come to play at home, you are too tired these days, I want you to take it easy."

After they finished their work, they washed up and prepared to rest. They took turns guarding at night, and they could also read the night market information by the way.The next day's exchange meeting started at nine o'clock. They set off directly from the hospital and rushed to Zhesi Finance together.

The living room has been set up, but the meeting has not yet started. Shen Duoyi's direct supervisor is Zhang Yiming. He saw that the other party was talking with You Si, so he didn't bother him.

Later, when the meeting time was almost up, I couldn't help but walked over. "Mr. Zhang, Miss You." Shen Duoyi approached, "The exchange meeting is about to begin. This is my first time participating. I hope you can give me some advice."

You Si wore a well-groomed suit, but wore a pair of exaggerated earrings, and said, "Director Shen, don't be modest. In fact, I was discussing with him just now, whether we can let our senior consultants attend your training meeting."

Zhang Yiming said: "The intellectual property rights belong to Ming'an, you are stealing the teacher, if you are the boss's family, it will be another story."

"Mr. Zhang, the upgraded training content is all made by me, and the intellectual property rights belong to me." Shen Duoyi explained to You Si, "Do you want to read my information again, or it will be too late."

Seize the last bit of time to make preparations, and the exchange meeting will officially begin when the lights are dimmed.As Zhesi is the host company, You Zhe will start the show first.Shen Duoyi looked up from his seat, and suddenly felt that the fate is really wonderful.

He originally came to Zhesi for an interview, but You Zhe admired him but rejected him and introduced him to Qi Shi'an.Going around, so many things have happened in a blink of an eye.

The participants were all high-level executives from various companies. As Zhang Yiming said, the name of the forum is actually a discussion of swords in Huashan.The people from the China Securities Regulatory Commission are present, and each company must show its best level.

Shen Duoyi slightly adjusted his tie, applause sounded, and Qi Shi'an finished his speech and walked off the podium in front of him.He got up to take the baton, and stood on the stage with his back straight: "The large bottom has basically been constructed, so Ming An Consulting Department has done an analysis on the 'commodity futures market under the big market' this time."

A beam of light, a shadow wall, full of elites.Shen Duoyi stood on the stage and talked freely, conducting the first important meeting he attended after he was promoted to supervisor.Some people frowned intently, some people nodded frequently, he scanned calmly, and finally fixed his eyes on Qi Shi'an.

He was in the light, he was in the dark, their eyes met, and they created a dream together with their eyes.

The exchange meeting came to a successful conclusion. Everyone greeted each other a few words and then left. In the end, there were only a few acquaintances left in the living room.Zhang Yiming and You Si already knew the relationship between Qi Shi'an and Shen Duoyi, and their private conversations were also familiar.You Zhe was still in the dark, standing aside and listening silently.

"By the way, did you go to the military hospital a while ago?" Qi Shi'an remembered the day when he transferred Mr. Shen, he saw You Zhe in the corridor.After hearing this, You Si immediately asked, "Brother, are you feeling unwell?"

You Zhe replied: "No, I prescribed some commonly used medicine, and I took some granules for French fries by the way, because it is easy to catch a cold in autumn and winter."

"It's good that it's fine." Qi Shi'an looked at the time, there was still work to do, and they were going back to Ming'an.Before leaving, he patted You Zhe on the shoulder and said, "Take time to have a drink during the National Day holiday, and I have something to talk to you about."

You Zhe nodded: "Okay, I also have something to tell you."

In previous years, Shen Duoyi would go back to Autumn Leaf Hutong with Shen Lao during the holidays, and this year is no exception.But Mr. Shen has just been discharged from the hospital, and autumn is prone to strong winds, so it is not suitable to go out and should rest.

Shen Duoyi went early and came back early, and came back in the middle of the afternoon. Lin Yuzhu made him pajamas, and he put on a display as soon as he came back.Old Shen was sitting on the sofa, covered with a blanket, watching TV, depressed because he didn't go back to the alley.

"Grandpa, I'm bored." Shen Duoyi sat down beside him, and then beat Elder Shen's leg, "Before I leave, I'll ask you if you're going or not. It's you who can't go. Auntie Housekeeper can testify."

Old Shen said: "I went like this to make them worry. It's better not to go. The key is you. You can't rest for a while when you come back. You are so poor."

Shen Duoyi tucked the blanket for Elder Shen: "I'm going to the rest house tomorrow, are you going to pick on me again?"

"Don't pick this one, you go, thank you very much." Old Shen was a little sleepy, it was only seven o'clock, but he could hardly open his eyes, "Duoyi, you and Xiao Qi are good boys...you are all good .”

Shen Duoyi raised his hand and hugged Elder Shen from the side: "Grandpa, I actually have a secret that I want to tell you bit by bit, so you go slowly and wait for me to finish."

Elder Shen tilted his head and leaned on Shen Duoyi's forehead: "I know everything."

Shen Duo didn't dare to move, and hugged Mr. Shen in a daze.He didn't want to find out when he was exposed, he just wanted to confirm the mood of Old Shen at the moment.Fear spread for a moment, and he tightened his arms around Old Shen, expressing his apology in a panic.

Old Shen raised his head and patted his leg: "Are you trying to strangle me to death? Why are you so timid?"

"grandfather……"

"Your secret, I already knew."

Old Shen closed his eyes: "I am relieved, and you are also relieved."

"My dear grandson, I'm tired."

Only the sound of breathing remained in Shen Duoyi's ears, like a broken bellows running, and it would stop suddenly at some point.He carried Mr. Shen into the bedroom, wiped himself and covered him with the quilt, no matter how he fiddled with him, the other party did not open his eyes.

After turning off the light, he lay down next to him. After returning from the hospital, he slept with Mr. Shen.He would wake up countless times during the night, staring at the blurred outline of Shen Lao in the dark.

He couldn't breathe a sigh of relief until dawn, thankful that another day had passed.

In the early morning of the next day, Grandpa Mao Mao came to knock on the door and asked Shen Lao to go to his house for dinner. The two elder brothers were going to celebrate the festival.Ever since Elder Shen had an accident and was hospitalized, and then he was discharged from the hospital, Grandpa Mao Mao always felt sorry for him, because Elder Shen always took Mao Mao out that day.

Shen Duoyi changed old Shen's clothes, then handed the wheelchair to Grandpa Mao Mao, and said, "Don't think too much about it, no one can avoid it if this happens. I scared Mao Mao that day, and I will give it to him another day." Buy toys."

When everything was arranged properly, he also changed his clothes and prepared to go to the rest house.

The rest house was extremely lively, Shen Duoyi came for the second time, carrying several bags of gifts, and heard Huo Lao's loud roar before entering the door.Huo Xin looked out after seeing him, and before he could call for someone, he asked first, "Sorry, is grandpa not here? It would be great if the old man came to have a meal together. I'll send an orderly to pick him up. "

Mr. Huo walked over with the bird cage in his hand: "Brother Shen must rest now, our house is so noisy, how can he bear it." After finishing speaking, he looked at Shen Duoyi, "There will be opportunities in the future, I am still waiting to go fishing with your grandpa Well. Let’s go, accompany me to the yard to let the wind go.”

Shen Duoyi put down the gift and followed Mr. Huo to the yard. The peach trees in the yard hadn't bloomed for a long time now, and the leaves were starting to turn yellow.He sat down on the stool, took the cage and unlocked it.

The peony flapped its wings and flew up to the branches, standing on a high place and screaming like soldiers on guard.Mr. Huo laid back on the recliner leisurely and said, "I'm so mean, I talked to your grandpa in the hospital that day, and your grandpa is very open-minded."

Shen Duoyi said: "I have experienced great grief and pain in life, if I don't get depressed after a setback, I will definitely be open-minded and see a lot in the future."

As soon as the words were finished, a whistle came from the door of the house. Peony reacted the fastest, and flew over with flapping wings.Qi Shi'an leaned against the marble pillar at the entrance of the building, holding his trouser pocket in one hand, and raised the other to let the parrot land.

He just woke up and came out after washing in a hurry, his hair was still a little messy.As far as he could see, Shen Duoyi was sitting in the yard with an empty birdcage in his arms, and Mr. Huo's reclining chair was dangling, the old and the young formed a landscape painting.

Mr. Huo was very conscious, he waved his hand and said: "Chou Dexing stands there and doesn't say a word, he's clearly an important person, go play with him."

Shen Duoyi didn't say anything politely, and stood up directly: "Grandpa, then I put the cage here."

With a lift of his finger, Qi Shi'an sent Mudan away, and then entered the house and upstairs with Shen Duoyi.He spent the night in the guest room, and the strange big bed couldn't take care of his muscular body, so he closed the door at this moment, hugged Shen Duoyi from behind, and sighed: "Resurrected..."

Shen Duoyi was pressed and leaned forward: "I slept until almost noon, and I still have the face to blame the bed for being bad."

"Tired, that bastard Zhang Yiming went on a trip with You Si and French fries, and left me a bunch of shit." Qi Shi'an sniffed Shen Duoyi's collar, "Where's grandpa, are you at home?"

"I went to Mao Mao's house." Shen Duoyi replied, "Didn't you bring Mao Mao back to the park the day you got sick? Grandpa Mao Mao felt sorry, and the two old men gathered together for the festival today."

While talking, Qi Shi'an's cell phone rang, picked it up and saw that it was You Zhe, he connected and said, "Happy National Day, is there anything you are calling right now?"

Shen Duoyi casually picked up a magazine to read, and vaguely heard You Zhe asking if he had time for a drink in the evening.

"Not today." Qi Shi'an said that they drank together that day, mainly because he wanted to tell You Zhe that he and Shen Duoyi were friends, but You Zhe was still in the dark.He thought about it, and was about to say it anyway, so he simply revealed: "Today, my partner comes to eat at home, and don't look for me if the sky falls."

There was a moment of silence inside, You Zhe seemed to be looking for confirmation: "Are you in a relationship?"

Qi Shi'an happily replied: "I've already seen my mother. If it wasn't for policy issues, I would have received my certificate now."

Shen Duoyi was sitting on the sofa reading a magazine, and when he heard this, he glanced at Qi Shian and warned him not to be too embarrassing.Qi Shi'an received the warning, and obediently said to the phone: "I'll talk to you in detail when we meet in two days, hang up, I'll invite you then."

Autumn and winter in the north are always dry, and it rained in the middle of the afternoon. It has been dry for nearly a month. This rain is really pleasing.Mr. Huo was wearing a raincoat to serve his peach trees, and Peony was screaming excitedly on the second-floor terrace.

It got dark earlier, and it was only four or five o'clock as if it was night.The dinner table was set, and the meal started early, Huo Xin heard the thunder outside and suddenly started laughing while leaning on the edge of the table.

Shen Duoyi asked curiously: "Auntie, what are you happy about?"

Huo Xin said: "When your uncle and I got married, Shi An was only four or five years old. He just became a stepmother, and I was careless, so I reminded myself every day to take good care of him."

Qi Shi'an interjected: "Ask me eighty times a day if I'm hungry or not. The increase in appetite is all caused by you."

"Go aside." Huo Xin continued to tell Shen Duoyi, "One time it was raining heavily, and there were thunder and lightning outside. I asked him if he was afraid, and thought very selfishly, if he was afraid, I would take him to sleep. Enhance the relationship. As a result, he got under the covers and played games, and said impatiently, "Isn't it just a weather phenomenon with more noise, so there's nothing to be afraid of."

After Shen Duoyi listened to it for a long time, she turned her face to look at Qi Shianle.Qi Shi'an ignored him, poured a bottle of red wine for everyone, and prepared to have a formal meal to celebrate.

The whole family gathered around the dining table, and the atmosphere was warm, without the tension and politeness of "meeting the parents".Holding the wine glass, Shen Duoyi said solemnly, "Grandpa, Uncle, Auntie, let me toast you first."

Qi Shi'an lowered his eyes and smiled, counting him happy.

Mr. Huo spoke on behalf of everyone and said: "Duoyi, this is the first holiday you have come to our house, and we treat you as our own family. I will not say too much, so as not to embarrass you, anyway, here will be you from now on Your home, we are all your family."

Shen Duoyi raised his head and drank the red wine in the glass: "Thank you grandpa, thank you uncles and aunts."

It was windy and windy outside, and the temperature dropped sharply, but the lights inside the building were brightly lit, and the words of concern kept coming.The landline in the living room rang suddenly, and Aunt Li ran to answer it, and then came up and said: "The armed police at the door said that Mr. You was looking for him, and asked if he should let him go."

"You Zhe?" Qi Shi'an stopped his chopsticks, "Let's go, add another bowl and chopsticks."

You Zhe is alone in his family, and he is also a master who works desperately.It's miserable enough for my sister to go on a trip with others without her parents around.

Within 2 minutes, the sound of wind and rain outside was mixed with the sound of brakes. Aunt Li opened the door, and Qi Shi'an got up to greet him at the door.You Zhe got out of the car, walked through the courtyard with an umbrella, and held a cowhide portfolio.

"Is it too lonely to stay by myself, and it's raining heavily." Qi Shi'an stood in the door, waited for the other party to enter the room, and said, "Just start eating, so don't drink while driving."

As he spoke, he turned and walked towards the side hall: "What is a file bag, don't tell me that you still have to talk to me about business while I'm on vacation."

The two tall ones entered the side hall in a few steps. You Zhe looked at the dining table, hesitating slightly: "Director Shen?"

Shen Duoyi bowed to say hello, Huo Xin and Qi Jingtang both waved for You Zhe to sit down.Qi Shi'an put away the empty bowls and chopsticks, only then did he realize that You Zhe had a stern look on his face, as if he had something on his mind.

"Grandpa, uncles and aunts, I'm sorry to interrupt you suddenly." You Zhe stood in front of the dining table, neither sitting nor moving, "I came today because I wanted to talk to Shi An about something, but I think you also have the right to know."

Qi Shi'an stood by the seat: "What's the matter?"

You Zhe's Adam's apple rolled, as if he had made a lot of determination: "This matter is very private, to be honest, I'm still hesitating."

Qi Shi'an understood You Zhe's concerns in an instant, and Shen Duoyi was present, so You Zhe still hesitated.Anyway, he was ready to tell the other party, so he simply said directly: "It doesn't matter if you care too much, in fact, the person I'm talking about is him."

Shen Duoyi watched You Zhe change from calm to shocked, his indifferent expression faded, and a layer of grief and indignation quickly appeared on the corners of his brows and eyes.Qi Shi'an also noticed it, and explained: "You may think it's sudden, so I'll talk about it in detail after dinner, but you've seen it too, our meal today belongs to meeting the parents—"

As soon as Qi Shi'an uttered the last sound, You Zhe's fist hit him head-on, Qi Jingtang's and Huo Xin's voices sounded at the same time, and Shen Duoyi immediately pulled back his chair and stood up.

"Why are you crazy?!" Even though Qi Shi'an reacted extremely quickly, he barely dodged it, his chin was swept by hard knuckles, and it turned red immediately.

Huo Lao said: "Xiao Zhe, you can't accept it for a while and understand, but it's wrong to shake your fist."

You Zhe turned a deaf ear to it, stepped forward and grabbed Qi Shian's collar, glared, and asked through gritted teeth: "You actually said that you like men? Then what is You Si?!"

The tower in Shen Duoyi's mind began to tilt, and he instantly sensed that something uncontrollable was about to happen.

Qi Shi'an frowned and asked back, "What's the matter with Guan Yousi?"

In front of all the elders, You Zhe angrily accused: "You Si liked you since she was a teenager. It doesn't matter if you don't know or don't like her, because this kind of thing is all about mutual affection. But you and Zhang Yiming How much she helped out when she founded Ming'an, and the celebration party was held after the dust settled. She didn't care about Zhe Si, my own brother, and left everything and ran to Sydney. Do you really think she likes to open a gallery? All these years, she ran away to give birth to a child!"

Huo Lao also stood up, knocked down all the chairs, and shouted: "What child?! What does it have to do with Shi'an?!"

Qi Shi'an looked at You Zhe in shock: "Child? Are the fries from You Sisheng?"

You Zhe's forehead was covered with blue veins, and he exerted all his strength, but it seemed as if his strength had been drained.The hand holding Qi Shi'an's collar gradually loosened, and he said word by word: "You Si came back with French fries, and refused to say who the father of the child is. I know she doesn't want to kidnap you with the child. She's fine, I This uncle is also good, and he is ready to raise the child alone, but your phone call today made me unbearable. When my sister is working on the child, you are dating other people. I am so fucking sorry for her. !"

"You grew up with You Si, and I regard you as my own brother, so no matter how much I hate and feel wronged in my heart, I thought about explaining it until I entered the door just now. But you actually told me that you like men, then what did you say to You Si at the beginning?" What did you do?!"

Qi Shi'an looked at You Zhe in disbelief, and then dragged You Zhe to the dining table: "I don't know anything about You Si and the child, but the child has nothing to do with me. Today in front of my parents and elders, and My love, you'd better explain."

Shen Duoyi's mind went blank, but he still said aloud, "Mr. You, have you misunderstood something?"

You Zhe broke away and stared at Qi Shi'an: "Is it a misunderstanding? You know it in your heart!" He leaned over to pick up the file bag on the ground, and then pulled out a page of proof inside.

"I have had this DNA report for a month. Whether you wronged him or not, you can see for yourself."

The wind and rain suddenly stopped, but Shen Duoyi heard thunder in a daze.
