At the dining table, the three of them silently ate the food in front of them, and no one had spoken for a long time.Li Yuan is a person who likes food, and prefers to enjoy food in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, but the current situation makes him feel like sitting on pins and needles, no matter how delicious the food is, it tastes like chewing wax.

When did it become like this?

Probably after Lin Ge finished saying that, Xue Yan smiled as if he didn't care, and then concentrated on eating the noodles, but for some reason, the surrounding air seemed to suddenly drop in temperature, and the low pressure enveloped the place. Not a spacious dormitory.

Li Yuan felt it was weird, when it comes to rough nerves, no one thinks he is the number one, especially if Brother Lin is so careful, it is impossible for him not to notice Xue Yan's abnormality.But he is just like a normal person, he should eat and drink, and he doesn't take it seriously at all.

In the end, it was Xue Yan who broke the deadlock first. He handed the empty bowl to Lin Qingyue and said, "Mr. Lin, your noodles are still so delicious. Do you have any more?"

"Yes, of course, just wait a moment." Lin Qingyue was very happy that the food he made with his own hands was praised by others, especially this person was Xue Yan.To be honest, when Xue Yan suddenly appeared in front of him, he was taken aback. His first reaction was to run away, but later he found that he had changed a lot, and he was able to communicate with others like a normal person. He would smile from time to time, and he was relieved a lot.It seems that, as he said, the disease has been completely cured. Now Xue Yan is basically a normal person, and he may occasionally lose his temper, but that is nothing compared to him ten years ago.

Only Li Yuan didn't know the ins and outs of it, and he was simply upset with Xue Yan, because after Lin Qingyue turned around and entered the kitchen, Xue Yan put on a look of avoiding strangers, and even a little closer would be caught by this person The thorns on the body pierced.

The three of them had their own thoughts during the meal, Li Yuan was awkward, Xue Yan was capricious, only Lin Qingyue was purely happy, and expressed his happiness for Li Yuan and Xue Yan's arrival.Li Yuan originally planned to stay overnight, but he was alone when he returned home, and he wanted to talk to Lin Ge about what happened recently.But facing Xue Yan, who seemed to have roots on his feet, he couldn't say those words.

"Mr. Xue, it's already nine o'clock, why don't you leave?" He said this without the slightest respect, and anyone could hear the meaning of chasing guests.

But Xue Yan said quite calmly: "Mr. Lin and I haven't seen each other for many years, and I want to chat for a while. If you have something to do, go first." He obviously answered Li Yuan's question, but he was facing Lin What Qingyue said.

"..." After all, Li Yuan is also a guest himself, so he can't drive people away on his behalf, he can only secretly admire Xue Yan's thick skin, this round, he completely lost.

The time of the last bus was almost over, Li Yuan decided to get up and leave, he said goodbye to Lin Qingyue, the latter was slightly surprised by his farewell, because Li Yuan would usually stay overnight when he came for dinner.

"Xiaoyuan, aren't you going to sleep here today? I've prepared the bed for you."

Li Yuan suddenly felt countless sharp knives flying towards him from one direction, stabbing him bleeding profusely.In which direction he looked, it was indeed Xue Yan who was an eyesore.

Grandma, it's none of your business if I stay and sleep with brother Lin!

He only dared to swear in his heart, not because he was cowardly, but because Xue Yan's face was too scary at the moment, and the feeling that he was about to pounce on him and wring his head off in the next second made him shudder.Lin Qingyue turned his back to Xue Yan, naturally he didn't know what kind of terrifying face his beloved "student" had. He sent Li Yuan away regretfully, and when he turned around, he only saw Xue Yan's very gentle and friendly face. A smile, coupled with that handsome face, is easy to make people feel at ease.

"Mr. Lin, can you tell me how you have been in the past few years?"

The normal conversation made Lin Qingyue completely let go of his guard against Xue Yan. He made a pot of tea, poured Xue Yan a cup, and chatted with him like an old friend he hadn't seen for many years...

The cooperation project with He's is still in full swing. Since it is Chengfeng's annual highlight, not only Li Yuan's marketing department, but almost all other large and small departments of the company are involved in it.In order to prove that his ability is worthy of this level of project, Li Yuan worked very hard. During these days, he hardly touched the ground, and even after work, he was actively studying the contract and collecting information.Moreover, he also touched the set of office software researched by the company all over. Since he himself graduated from the computer programming department, after he repeatedly tested the software, he actually found a small loophole. , the company also rewarded him for this.

It was obviously a good thing, but it unexpectedly angered the people in the development department. A fledgling boy who just graduated dared to point fingers at the products they developed. It was almost like a slap in the face of the people in the development department.For a while, Li Yuan was secretly listed as the most unpopular person by the development department, and when they occasionally met in the cafeteria, they would avoid him.However, Li Yuan is quite open-minded about this point. He thinks this is his job as an employee. If the bid fails because of this small mistake, it will be a big deal to the company and them personally. Loss, due to emotion and reason, I did nothing wrong.

He could still ignore the hostility from the development department, but the rejection he received in his own department was not so easy to accept.I don't know if it's because his recent actions are too conspicuous, or if he offended someone somewhere, in short, the attitude of his colleagues in the department has changed drastically. Although they are polite on the surface, they are actually very alienated. Don't talk to him anymore.From the first day he came to the company, Li Yuan spent a lot of effort trying to establish a good relationship with his colleagues, and it has already achieved certain results. Now all his efforts have been in vain.

He didn't know what the reason was. Jealousy is natural, but it won't have such a big effect unless someone is behind the scenes.He once doubted Chen Siming, but he behaved very normally, and he praised him whenever he saw someone, saying that a rare talent came to the marketing department, that the tiger father has no dogs, etc...

Li Yuan didn't know how much sincerity was in his words, he always avoided Chen Siming when he could.In the company, he gradually felt isolated and helpless, even when eating in the cafeteria, he always sat alone by the window.He had no choice but to concentrate all his thoughts on his work to relieve his loneliness.

"Brother Wang, it's time to get off work. Let's drop by, let's go together?" When he was about to leave work, he asked the colleague sitting behind him to go with him, and that was the only one who was willing to chat with him.

Unexpectedly, the other party said without raising his face: "Xiao Li, you go first, I will work overtime, and the work is not finished yet."

"Oh...well..." Li Yuan packed his briefcase in frustration, and walked out of the office alone.

When he was about to go out, he ran into Chen Siming who had just returned from the general manager's office. He greeted Li Yuan, and finally said meaningfully: "Xiao Yuan, you have performed well recently, work hard."

Li Yuan gave him a blunt smile, thinking that he was sincerely encouraging himself, although Chen Siming's smile seemed to be hiding something else no matter how you looked at it.

Li Yuan shook his head and started on his way home.

He has many shortcomings, such as recklessness, impulsiveness, stubbornness, etc., but relatively, there are also many advantages. One of them is his ability to withstand pressure, which is inseparable from Li Weiran's education for him.

The first thing Li Yuan did when he got home was to burn incense for his father. The incense had to be two sticks, one for his father and the other for his uncle Ning He.

Compared with other families, the Li family has many differences. For example, there has never been a mistress in this family. Li Yuan doesn't even know the name of his biological mother. For example, his father's only younger brother is not named Li.And Li Weiran had already built a double cemetery a long time ago, first put Ning He's ashes in it, and then when he was dying, he asked Li Xue and Liyuan's siblings to put his ashes in the same place as Ning He's. Together.

This is really indescribably weird. If you say that the two brothers have a good relationship, there is no reason to hide together, let alone a brother of the opposite sex.However, Li Yuan never doubted Ning He's blood relationship with the Li family. He once thought that his elder sister was favored by his father because she inherited many of his father's characteristics, the most important of which was appearance.And his facial features are actually more like his younger uncle Ning He, to the point where people will say that he is Li Yuan's biological father just by looking at Ning He's photo.

Li Yuan once had countless questions about his uncle Ning He.In his memory, his father seldom hugged him, and he rarely showed his tenderness and patience to Li Xue. When he was very young, what Li Yuan longed for most was that his father could hug him and kiss him like he did to Li Xue. Take a sip, then hold it in your arms.After he became sensible, he once felt that the reason why his father was unwilling to get close to him was because his appearance was too similar to that of his uncle, and there might have been some conflicts between them.Because except for the fact that my father would burn a stick of incense to my uncle during the Chinese New Year, he would not even mention his fame at other times, and my father would not allow others to mention my uncle.

But after his father passed away, he found that he was wrong. Not only did his father ask to be buried with his uncle, but when he sorted out his father's belongings, he found that most of them were related to his uncle.From this point of view, the relationship between the two brothers should be very close, and my previous guess was wrong.

After his father died, no one will solve this mystery for him.But Li Yuan thought that his sister knew everything, but for some reason he didn't want to tell him. It's a pity that Li Xue had completely disappeared from his life.

Dinner for one person, plain and simple.Although the stomach was full, there was a feeling of emptiness coming from somewhere in the body.Li Yuan looked at the empty home, and recalled the scene full of laughter and laughter. Although his father was stern and indifferent, he still cared for him, and would pat his head appreciatively when he got [-] points. .My sister has been a very outstanding girl since she was a child, a little arrogant but very lively and cute, and has always been the pistachio in the family.

But now, he is the only one left here, and it has been five years. Occasionally, Li Yuan, who is insane, will miss his relatives crazily, and frantically want to find someone to accompany him.

He seems to have been waiting for someone, someone who can be by his side at any time, and he is willing to give everything for her, as long as she is willing to chat with him, accompany him for a walk after dinner, and help him fill the potholes in his heart.

Sometimes he hopes that that person is Bai Rou, but sometimes he thinks it shouldn't be like that.He had been secretly in love with Bai Rou for four years, but he always wondered whether he really fell in love with Bai Rou, or just liked the feeling of being worried about him?

On this day, Li Yuan didn't fight until late at night like before, but took a bath early and nestled on the bed.When sleeping, he likes to wear soft and warm pajamas, preferably the kind that can wrap himself from head to toe.He lay sideways on the wide bed, curled up like cooked shrimp, as if only in this way could he gain a sense of security.

When I came to the company the next day, when I walked into the office, I clearly felt strange eyes from all directions. Li Yuan was no stranger to this kind of eyes. When he was selected as a representative to accompany Chen Siming to He's headquarters , also felt it.

Did something happen again?

Li Yuan was suddenly a little worried. He felt that Chen Siming was going to flatter and kill him recently. Could it be that he made something wrong again?

But when he saw Chen Siming, he felt that he was wrong, because there were only the two of them in the office now, and Chen Siming did not pretend to be a close brother like in the past, but crossed his legs and played with the gadgets in his hands. He raised his eyes and looked at Li Yuan, and he couldn't help it.

"Manager Chen, what do you need from me?" Li Yuan was more used to Chen Siming's appearance, at least he didn't have to guess what tricks this man was playing.

"Don't dare to be that. After a while, I'm afraid I'll have to call you a manager." For some reason, Chen Siming suddenly gave up his pretense, and his tone was full of contempt.

"What do you mean?"

"I still want to ask you, Xiaoyuan, I found that I have always underestimated you. No, no, it's my fault, how can I forget that you have never been a fuel-efficient lamp?" Chen Siming stood up and walked Go to Li Yuan's side and whisper provocatively in his ear.

"Manager Chen, I don't understand what you mean." Li Yuan was neither humble nor overbearing, he didn't even know what happened, which made Chen Siming so weird.But this is the real Chen Siming. Fortunately, he was not deceived by his disguise.

"I originally wanted to give you a chance to take you out to learn more. After all, your Li family has been kind to me, and it can be considered as a repayment for Professor Li's support to me. But I didn't expect you to even skip the step of leading the master in. Hooked up with the boss of the National People's Congress?" Unwilling, resentful, and jealous, Chen Siming, who tore off his mask, expressed his emotions clearly, and probably only Li Yuan could see this distorted face.

Li Yuan saw Chen Siming's ugly appearance in his eyes, and became more contemptuous of this person. One day, he would let everyone see Chen Siming's current appearance, "Manager Chen, you'd better make it clear first, I really want to don't know what happened."

"Still pretending?" Chen Siming giggled, "Do you have to let me tell you that you feel a sense of accomplishment? I also helped you by pulling you into the company. I didn't expect you to have such a strong background." , since you know the big Buddha He Shichen, why should you condescend to come to Chengfeng, a small temple?"

"He Shichen?" He is familiar with this name, the youngest helm of the He family, the real ruler of a huge business empire, but what does it have to do with him?

Chen Siming hooked the corners of his lips, and said with a half-smile: "Our project is successful, and we are going to He's to sign the contract today. He's only request for us is to bring you——Li Yuan."
