spare tire

Five years later--

Li Yuan got up very early this day, brushed his teeth and washed his face. He usually doesn't pay much attention to the outside world. He stood in front of the mirror for a full 10 minutes before applying some pomade to let his shiny black hair It looks more tidy, and by the way, the bangs are pulled up, so that it is a little less student-like, and it looks a bit like an adult out of society.For the rest of the time, he has been struggling with the tie. Even in front of the teaching video, this is a very difficult task for Li Yuan. After several minutes passed, he tied a knot that barely counts as a pass.

"So I'm so handsome..."

After finishing the preparation, standing in front of the bright and bright mirror, Li Yuan could not help feeling narcissistic when he saw himself completely different from usual.

Before going out, Li Yuan came to the living room, took out the matches and three sticks of incense from the drawer of the altar, lit them and put them in front of his father's photo.

Li Yuan clasped his hands together and bowed to Li Weiran's portrait, "Dad, thanks to your blessing, I found a good job this time. Today is my first day at work, so I have to go. My favorite roast pork."

After he finished speaking, he put on his newly bought black shoulder briefcase and strode out of the house.

Sunshine came in through the windows, lighting up half of the living room. The furniture in Li's house was a bit outdated, and the style was also more than ten years ago, but everything from tables and chairs to pots and pans was spotlessly cleaned.After Li Weiran passed away due to illness, there were more shrines in the living room. When Li Xue left, she took some of her clothes. Now Li Yuan is the only one left in the house. It's like someone came back.

The reason why Li Yuan went out so early was because he was afraid of traffic jams on the road. Sure enough, when he was only about two kilometers away from the company, the street was so crowded that even a mouse couldn't get through it. It took several minutes to move one meter.Li Yuan had already prepared, he got off the car at the nearest stop, took out the sneakers he had prepared, changed into new leather shoes, and walked quickly to the company.

When he passed by a pancake stand, he realized that he hadn’t had breakfast until now because he was in a hurry. The smell of batter and eggs mixed with sauce and chives attracted him, so he decided to stop for a double-egg pancake.

While he was watching Master Pancake creating on a circular iron plate like an artist, there was a sudden noise not far away, and before he had time to turn his head to look, he was hit hard by someone , almost stuck his face on the yellow-orange double-egg pancake, and then he heard a woman shout: "Catch the thief! My bag!!"

Li Yuan hurried forward, and sure enough, there was a man in gray clothes running with a black handbag, probably the one who bumped into him just now.Li Yuan is a man of action, his body is always faster than his brain, and when he came to his senses, he was already chasing the robber through the crowd.

At this time in the morning, there were people rushing to work, and the crowd was very dense, which made it very difficult for him to move forward. Seeing the thief running farther and farther, Li Yuan had an idea, and simply jumped out of the guardrail and ran along the side of the road.

There are many injustices in this world, some people are born to bring wealth, some people are born to be in power, but in front of some things, all living beings are equal, and there is such a thing in front of you, whether you are a wealthy person or a commoner, when you are stuck in traffic, you will either Go down and go by yourself or just wait.

Most of the time, He Shichen will avoid this peak traffic jam. He's building is located in the most prosperous and dense area of ​​City A, where countless people make a living. Therefore, there are such time slots every morning and afternoon, and the nearby main roads will be blocked. semi-paralyzed state.But today he had to choose to come to the company early, and he had to review all the materials again before the acquisition meeting.

He sat in the back of the car, enduring the slow-moving traffic, and even time seemed to slow down.But on the sidewalks on both sides of the street, it is a completely different scene. Pedestrians are in a hurry, wishing that two hot wheels would grow from their feet.

He Shichen looked coldly at the scene outside the window. He was 30 years old this year. Compared with him a few years ago, he didn't seem to have changed much, but his grandfather said that he was even more lifeless, like an 80-year-old man.He Shichen has never understood why human beings can have such rich emotions and expressions. Except for that night five years ago, his mind has always been a pool of still water, which never caused waves.

The driver apologized and asked him to wait patiently. He Shichen didn't really care, except that he was wasting time and didn't feel impatient.The air in the car was a bit cloudy, and he opened the window to let fresh air in.

At this moment, he heard a crisp male voice standing out from the surrounding noises——

"Stop for me!!"

The sound was so loud that he had to follow its source.Then he saw a man in a dark gray suit running wildly on the side of the road, but he was wearing a pair of white sneakers, which didn't match up very well.He was moving very fast, as if he was chasing someone. Not long after, he stepped on the fence and jumped high, then kicked a man with one leg outstretched.

The leaping figure of the man was as vigorous as a leopard hunting for prey. His body was covered with a layer of golden sunlight, so dazzling that people couldn't keep their eyes open.

In the next second, the man in the gray clothes fell to the ground with his mid-legs. The man in the suit rushed up and pressed him down with his body, and threw his hands behind him.

"Let you grab something! You can't run anymore!!" Li Yuan reprimanded the thief viciously. His forehead hair was scattered due to the violent movements, and the style he had carefully managed was ruined.

The woman who was robbed came in a hurry and thanked Li Yuan a lot. Li Yuan waved at her, and when the nearby policemen arrived, he handed over the thief to them, and walked back to the pancake stand by himself.

"Boss, are my pancakes ready?"

Master Pancake hadn’t recovered from the shocking scene of the street gangster movie, one of the protagonists had already returned to his stall, and couldn’t help but exclaimed sincerely: “Oh, boy, you are so awesome, your kick You are so handsome! There are not many young people like you now, I will give you this pancake today, wait, I will add two slices of meat to you, and you will come to me to eat every day in the future, I will count it cheaper for you .”

Li Yuan was a little embarrassed by his praise, scratched his head and didn't know what to say, he didn't feel that he had done a great thing, but it was good to be able to eat two more slices of meat.

"Then thank you, master." He took a bite of the hot shoulder from the boss, and the aroma of eggs, coriander and green onion exploded in his mouth instantly, making his empty stomach not so uncomfortable, Li Yuan Facing the sun, he narrowed his eyes and smiled contentedly.

At this moment, He Shichen heard the beating of his own heart, and a strange but familiar voice stirred his eardrums.When did you ever feel this way?The heart was beating violently, and the waves in the brain were churning, as if the whole soul had been sucked in by something?

When was the last time?

five years ago?Because of a pair of beastly eyes?

But what about today?He only saw a young man dressed in funny clothes, who walked back slowly as if nothing had happened after he had acted bravely, took a bite of food and showed a satisfied expression, as if he had the whole world with just that one bite.

The man was good-looking, not as delicate as a celebrity, but he was clean and bright. The broken hair on his forehead made him look a bit childish, and his smile was even warmer, not losing to Sunshine at all.

An indescribable sense of familiarity enveloped He Shichen, and this time he suddenly had an impulse: he wanted to jump out of the car and grab that young man to ask who he really was, and why did he feel this way?

Five years ago it was because of the desire to conquer, so what about this time?Is there anything special about this smile?

He couldn't figure it out. He Shichen had never had such an unsolvable problem in his life. It was different from five years ago. At this time, a desire arose in his heart - he wanted to get close to that man and hear his voice. , saw him smile to himself!

"It's a move! Mr. He, it seems that there will be no more traffic jams this time, and we will be able to arrive at the company after two more traffic lights!"

The voice of the driver, Old Wang, interrupted He Shichen's thoughts. As the car started and accelerated, the figure of the man got farther and farther away from him.He calmed down quickly, and felt that there was no need for him to stop Lao Wang. It was just an accident, just like five years ago, and there was nothing worthy of attention.

So soon, he decided to forget about this matter and that young man.

During the five years, those eyes would occasionally appear in his dreams, and each time it would make his heart beat faster.But this time it seemed to be more serious than last time. During the acquisition meeting, He Shichen actually lost his mind for the first time, just because he thought of the man's smiling face again.

Two different people with completely different expressions had the same effect on him. Only at these two moments did He Shichen feel the temperature of the blood flowing in his body. He was more like a human being than at any other time. A cold machine.

who is he?what is his name?Will I ever see him again?

"Ahhhhh!!"

Li Yuan, who finally came to the new company, sneezed suddenly when he stepped on the elevator. Because he was not prepared, he didn't even have time to cover it up, so sporadic saliva splashed on the female staff in front, causing trouble There was a glare.

He quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I didn't mean it, maybe someone is thinking about me."
