Han Sheng smelled a scent of milk, and he opened his eyes in a daze, not knowing where he was.There was the faint sound of glass touching the table, and the sound of small footsteps. In a trance, it seemed like a long dream. He was still in that small apartment in City A. When he woke up, Li Fan had already made it. breakfast.

It was as if the brain had been hit hard with a hammer, and there was a dull pain like an echo.Han Sheng rubbed his temples, slowly propped up his body, and habitually reached out to touch the phone on the bedside table, but it was in vain.

He was startled, his hands were still frozen in mid-air, and suddenly he became sober.

This is not in City A, and everything is not a dream.

It's easy for Han Sheng to forget things when he's very drunk, but yesterday's experience was really tortuous. Although he can't remember the details, he can't completely forget them.

He rubbed his face and sat on the bed for a while before getting up and getting out of bed.Although it's already summer, probably because of the frequent rain, the mornings in Liyuan City are always a bit cool.Han Sheng stopped buttoning his hand, looked around, but didn't see his thin coat.

His heart skipped a beat, he clearly remembered that he had kept his coat in his hand, did he forget to take it away last night?

The ring is still inside.

Han Sheng hurried out of the bedroom, seeing Li Fan coming out of the kitchen with two cups of hot milk, he asked anxiously:

"Xiaofan, have you seen my coat? It's dark blue with black borders, yesterday..."

"Oh, that coat is dirty. I washed it for you. Are you cold? You probably won't be able to wear my clothes. Let me turn on the air conditioner."

"in……"

Before Han Sheng finished speaking, he saw the small velvet jewelry box on the coffee table, heaved a sigh of relief, and swallowed the remaining half of the sentence.

Li Fan also understood why Han Sheng was in a hurry, but his mind was very confused, and he didn't know what expression to put on to face it.

For a moment, both of them were a little embarrassed.

This apartment was smaller than the one he bought in City A, and there was no special dining table. Li Fan brought the hot milk in his hand to the small coffee table, and a plate with toast was already placed beside it.

"Let's have breakfast, sorry, that's all I have in the fridge."

Han Sheng walked over and sat down. The coffee table was a little short, and his long legs could only be squeezed between the sofa and the coffee table. He probably had to bow his waist when eating, showing a sense of disobedience that made people laugh and cry. .

He didn't say anything, just froze and looked at a table of food in silence.

Li Fan spread peanut butter on a piece of toast and handed it over:

"Sorry, my conditions here are a bit crude, so you can make do with it."

Han Sheng took the toast, but held it in his hand and didn't finish his mouth.

"What's the matter? No appetite? If you don't panic, let's go out to eat? It's not very far. If you like Chinese breakfast, there is a good bun shop..."

"No..." Han Sheng said with a hoarse voice, "That's pretty good."

As if to prove his own words, after Han Sheng finished speaking, he lowered his head and wolfed down the toast in his hand, Li Fan felt choked when he saw it.

"Uh...don't force it, I'm just asking, nothing else."

Li Fan felt embarrassed after speaking, and planned to let Han Sheng drink some milk, but suddenly met Han Sheng's raised gaze, and couldn't help but froze in place.

Han Sheng's eyes were extremely red.

"Xiao Fan,"

I don't know if it was because the piece of toast was too dry, but Han Sheng's voice was full of rough grains:

"Don't say sorry to me, you have nothing to be sorry for."

Li Fan withdrew his gaze, bowed his head and hummed lightly, and took small bites of the tasteless toast.Han Sheng glanced over the small box at the corner of the table, choked up a bit, but said nothing, and stretched out his hand stiffly to fetch the milk.

The cell phone rang faintly in the bedroom, it was Han Sheng's cell phone.Li Fan reminded in a low voice:

"I put your phone next to the pillow for you."

Han Sheng nodded, put down the cup in his hand, got up and walked towards the bedroom.

It was Secretary Zhang who called from the company phone, and Han Sheng felt irritated for no reason.He obviously took the vacation after making arrangements, and he didn't know what else he had to tell him.

"What's up?"

There was a noticeable pause on the other end of the phone, and it was only then that Han Sheng realized that he had overreacted. When he was usually at the company, although he always had a cold face, his tone was polite, and he was uncontrollably too cold just now.He coughed lightly, and asked again:

"Is there something wrong with me?"

"Ah, um, Mr. Han, during the operation of our cooperation project, there was a little disagreement with Lu's headquarters. It's a little serious. Our people are not sure, and they are urging to see you again, so..."

"I'm only halfway through my vacation, what about Xiao Li? Isn't it in his responsibility? Let him handle it."

Secretary Zhang's tone was very difficult:

"But... Lu's insistence on refusing... They said that if they don't see you within this week, they will suspend this project."

This week...it's already Friday, which means that Han Sheng has to leave immediately.However, when he thought of Li Fan's calm expressionless face and the empty apartment in City A, the rejection in his heart suddenly intensified, and the barely maintained calm was instantly shattered.He said coldly:

"Stop it, just suspend it. I said I will take a long vacation. I won't go back until I finish the vacation. I have explained everything that should be explained before I leave. Let the people in charge take care of what is going on. Don't ask me!"

Secretary Zhang wanted to say something, but Han Sheng hung up the phone in agitation.The last few sentences were almost growls, which made Han Sheng feel a little dazed.He looked at the phone that had returned to the main screen for a while, and suddenly realized what he had done. He didn't regret it, but was a little surprised.

He used to think that Wansheng was his most important thing, and he would take good care of it no matter what happened.But now, knowing that there is nothing he can do, he would rather let go of everything and stay.

He was afraid, afraid of the feeling of surviving the night alone with his eyes open.

He took a deep breath, tried to make his expression more natural, and then walked out of the bedroom, squeezed himself into the small sofa in front of the coffee table again, and picked up the milk as if nothing had happened.

"Did something happen to Wansheng?"

Li Fan was holding half a piece of toast, and his tone was very flat, as if asking casually.

Han Sheng forced a smile:

"It's okay, it's okay."

After finishing speaking, he pretended to concentrate on drinking milk to hide his guilty conscience.Li Fan didn't ask any further questions, and accepted the lame answer with a natural expression.

Han Sheng was very contradictory. On the one hand, he didn't want Li Fan to know what kind of burden this incident would cause. On the other hand, he desperately wanted Le Fan to ask more, just like before, and worry about Wansheng together with him. Worry about little things instead of keeping a polite distance.

The two chewed their food with their own thoughts, but they both maintained a calm face, as if it was just a peaceful and warm breakfast.

Seeing Han Sheng finished his last sip of milk, Li Fan got up to clear the table.He reached for the cup in front of Han Sheng, but was snatched by Han Sheng:

"I'll do it myself."

Li Fan wasn't too polite either, he stacked the jar of peanut butter on the plate of toast, picked it up together with the glass at hand and walked towards the kitchen, Han Sheng got up and followed behind him.

The kitchen is also small, and Han Sheng followed in, making the whole space crowded.The milk was not easy to wash when it was dry, so Li Fan took Han Sheng's cup and put it in the sink, turned on the faucet, and planned to soak it in water first.

Han Sheng handed the cup, but didn't leave in a hurry, but huddled in the narrow kitchen, silently watching Li Fan's back, listening to the splash of water hitting the sink.

He endured it very hard, and he wanted to hug the somewhat thin figure in front of him.

The sound of water flow stopped, Li Fan didn't turn around, the sound was very clear in the kitchen that suddenly became quiet.

"Ah Cheng, you go back."

Han Sheng was stunned for a moment before he realized that what Li Fan said was not to go back to the hotel, but to let him leave Liyuan City.Feeling as if a needle had been pricked in his heart, he grabbed the door frame with one hand and tried his best to hide his panic:

"No, I haven't finished my vacation yet, I want to stay for a while...I still have time, I still have time."

"Don't waste your time here, you know, Wansheng needs you, don't let so much hard work go to waste."

"No," Han Sheng insisted on explaining, but he kept speaking incoherently. He didn't know what he was talking about, and the speed of his speech became faster and faster, but his voice became smaller and smaller: "Don't worry, it's fine, I'm just Hugh. Just leave, nothing will happen, I..."

"Ah Cheng, listen to me." Li Fan interrupted him with a slow but firm tone: "Actually, I have thought about it a lot during this time. You don't have to feel guilty about the past, I did suffer a lot But I can't blame you all. It's impossible to judge right from wrong when it comes to feelings. I admit, I still like you. I see everything you do these days, and you went to find Fang Qing. I've heard about it too. To be honest, I'm very happy. These are things that I didn't even dare to hope for before. However, I can't help being afraid, afraid that all this is fake, and afraid that you will suddenly find that you are only It's just because of guilt, I'm afraid that when I wake up in the last sleep, what I had was actually a nightmare..."

Han Sheng defended with a hoarse voice:

"That's not the case, I..."

Li Fan didn't turn around, but shook his head towards the wall:

"I know, I shouldn't deny you so arbitrarily. It's not that I don't want to do it all over again, but this time, I want to sort out my life. I was always alone during this time, and I kept thinking about it. Over the past 20 years What the hell am I doing? I find myself confused. I seem to be losing all the time. I don’t know myself anymore. It’s so boring. I’m tired and even mentally ill Question, I have to take a break."

Han Sheng was speechless, he wanted to reach out his hand to grab Li Fan's shoulder and pull him into his arms, but when he saw Li Fan slowly turn around, he seemed to be nailed in place .

Li Fan's tone was as calm as if he was telling an unimportant story, his brows were raised slightly, as if he could burst into a carefree smile in the next second.However, those always crooked eyes did not smile at all, but looked at Han Sheng calmly.Tears rolled down one after another, like dewdrops on the tip of a lotus after rain, they fell silently, but each one fell into Han Sheng's heart.

Han Sheng lost his mind looking at a string of teardrops. This was the first time he saw Li Fan's undisguised tears. There was no cry of grievance, no cry of anger. All the emotions in my heart have faded away in time, leaving only round and crystal clear teardrops falling down lonely.

He tentatively stretched out his hand, but Li Fan didn't move, letting his thumb slide across his cheek, catching a string of cold teardrops into his palm.He wanted to comfort him, but felt that saying anything was superfluous, so he finally said in a low voice:

"Don't cry."

Then Li Fan's tears stopped, and the slightly raised brows finally completely relaxed, his eyes that were still steaming were bent, and a familiar smile climbed onto his cheeks.Li Fan hasn't smiled like this for a long time, the smile he is best at, the smile that he has put on his face like a mask for so many years, is actually a little jerky at this moment.

But this time, he was really smiling.

Han Sheng's deep voice floated softly beside his ears, sweeping away all the gloom and anxiety in his heart.For so many years, he has been searching hard, from watching from afar to the tenderness of entanglement, he has gained more and more, but he feels more and more empty, and the greed in his heart is like a bottomless pit that can never be filled.

At this moment he suddenly understood that none of that mattered, no matter what mistake Han Sheng made and how much it hurt him, he didn't want any apology, as long as this person was willing to wipe his tears when he was crying, Softly comfort him, don't cry, and he doesn't care about anything.

All he wanted was a little care that was so humble.

"One year," Li Fan put away his smile, and said solemnly: "We made an appointment for one year. During this year, I will be in Liyuan City. I will receive good treatment and find my true self. You go back to A City, take a good look at your heart. Next summer solstice, if you still like me, come and I will go with you."

Not to mention a year, even a month, a week, a day... Han Sheng didn't want to be separated from Li Fan, but he had no choice, he couldn't refuse, he could only forcefully suppress the throbbing pain in his heart, like a man with his head down. Like a child who wanted an extra candy, they discussed coquettishly:

"Then in this year, can we keep in touch like friends, and don't let me not find you again."

"I won't miss it, as long as you come, I will be here."

At this point, Han Sheng's duckweed heart seemed to be drifting for a long time, and it finally found a place, and it fell back steadily into his chest, because it was full of a promise, so he was extra careful and steady when beating.

"Okay, don't be crowded here." Li Fan smiled again: "Wansheng has something to do, so don't delay, while the weather is good now, I will accompany you back to the hotel to tidy up and salute."

Accept it and accept it, Han Sheng is still reluctant:

"Don't be in such a hurry, I'll leave tomorrow..."

"Don't play tricks, the whole Wansheng depends on you. Let's go, treat you to a good lunch at noon, and then I will see you off."

Levan paused, and then continued:

"Wait until you come back."

If you will come back.

The second half of the sentence is deeply hidden in my heart.
