Some of the people who bought the puppets fulfilled their wishes in the online store and in Su Ming’s comments, and many people only found a line of words engraved on the back of the puppets after their wishes were fulfilled—"If you give up, you will get something."
And they all found that after fulfilling their wishes, they had bad luck within a week. For example, no matter how they set the alarm clock or asked someone to wake them up this week, they would still be late late and be criticized by their superiors or teachers.
But compared with the fulfilled wishes, these "bad luck" seem to be insignificant.
"The important things to them are actually the same in front of Destiny." Yun Qingcen played with the puppet, he said, "People don't care about the fate of ants, just like Destiny doesn't care about the fate of people."
As long as everyone follows the established path, it will be fine.
No matter how many forks there are along the way, as long as you finally walk on the established path, destiny will not correct it.
To some extent, these puppets are also "destiny".
People like to talk about "metaphysics". Although they say they don't believe it and say it's superstitious and useless, more people will repost it with the mentality of "try it, even if you don't succeed, you can't lose". People like " "Get", but don't love "lose", and it is even difficult to give.
Just like people who get a puppet and make a wish successfully, they clearly know that they have lost something, but they have got what they need most at the moment.
The wisps of gray luck were transferred from them to Yun Qingcen's hands.
These short-term lucks are small, but the gathering of hundreds of thousands of people's luck brings benefits to Yun Qingcen no less than that of an evil ghost.
And a person can only use a puppet once a year. This is the restriction imposed by Yun Qingcen. Even if this person buys hundreds of puppets back, these puppets will not be useful. It is not that Yun Qingcen suddenly has a "conscience". It’s that the impact of a puppet is limited, but if things don’t go well for a week, they are all small things, and they don’t even make people sick. At most, they have a low-grade fever, which will be cured after a week.
But human greed is endless.
What will the buyers do if they find that they can get what they want for a small price?
If one puppet can't fulfill the larger wish, what about two?or three?
Since it is not enough to make one big wish at once, can you make many small wishes?
Yun Qingcen curled her lips: "If it weren't for worrying that the underworld would come to me, I wouldn't care about their life or death."
Zhou Xuyao came out with a plate of watermelon, with a small metal fork inserted into the watermelon, the watermelon was cut beautifully by Zhou Xuyao, and the seedless watermelon took a small bite, just right.
The weather has turned cold, and people put on sweaters or jackets. Except for some seventeen or eighteen-year-old students, most people pay attention to keeping warm, but Yun Qingcen doesn't feel cold. The out-of-season watermelon is not as sweet as summer. It is a little tasteless in the mouth, unless it is squeezed into watermelon juice and added with some sugar, but the sweetness loses a lot of the sweetness of watermelon itself.
"Did Xu Fan ask you out?" Zhou Xuyao sat next to Yun Qingcen, picked up a puppet, and rubbed the carvings on the puppet's body with his fingers.
Yun Qingcen picked up the phone: "I have an appointment, I will go to find him tomorrow."
Zhou Xuyao handed Yun Qingcen a purse, which contained a piece of talisman paper.
"When he does this, you only need to ignite this talisman to break his blindfold." Zhou Xuyao said softly, "And people in the underworld will not find you."
The talisman written by Zhou Xuyao, although Zhou Xuyao has no afterlife, he is now a living person, and the underworld is more "tolerant" when dealing with living people, but if Yun Qingcen, an immortal existence, breaks through Xu Fan's blindfold, When Xu Fan died, that was when Yun Qingcen was arrested by the underworld.
The sun was setting outside, and when light and darkness were on the line, Yun Qingcen put his purse in his pocket and smiled at Zhou Xuyao.
Zhou Xuyao sat next to Yun Qingcen, the company lights turned on, and when Su Ming came in, he saw Yun Qingcen leaning against Zhou Xuyao.
The smile on Su Ming's face stopped suddenly, and the tablet computer in his hand fell to the ground with a muffled sound.
Zhou Xuyao and Yun Qingcen turned their heads together, but Su Ming's eyes were on Zhou Xuyao's face.
He had never seen Zhou Xuyao carefully.
Where there is Yun Qingcen, Yun Qingcen is the center of all eyes, his presence can make the people around him seem like they never existed.
Like the sun, no star will divide his light.
But Su Ming doesn't think Zhou Xuyao is good-looking, just like he doesn't think Zheng Shaowei is good-looking now. He has never found his own value and existence in Zheng Shaowei. For a long time, he feels that the value of his existence is "Playing" Yun Qingcen is to please Zheng Shaowei, and his career is just a reward after he realizes "value" with Zheng Shaowei.
During that time, he felt like a dog raised by Zheng Shaowei, who needed to wag his tail and beg for "dog food" from Zheng Shaowei.
So he "falls in love" with Zheng Shaowei, because only if he attributes everything to "love" and "voluntary", his dignity will not be broken, and he will not fall into deeper despair.
After leaving Zheng Shaowei, he started to work for Yun Qing. At the beginning, he also had his own thoughts - he wanted to use his own compromise to get Yun Qing's help. , There will definitely be other brokerage companies willing to sign him, he can make a comeback, and without Zheng Shaowei, he can find other values for himself.
But the direction of development of things did not go according to his imagination. For Yunqing's company, he hardly had a good night's sleep. He spent a lot of time browsing the website every day, looking for better office locations, better factories, and Therefore, whenever he found a better place, he would go there immediately. In order to save Yun Qing money, he used the bargaining skills he learned when he was poor.
He slowly changed back to his former self.
The person who is not rich, has no fans, has no spotlights on his head, and struggles in the world but no one will protect him.
It's just that Su Ming didn't feel the pain—maybe in the eyes of many people, he fell from heaven to hell again, but he got the long-lost freedom.
He is not the perfect idol in the eyes of fans, nor the filial son who bears the burden of the family in the eyes of his parents, nor the Yun Qingcen in Zheng Shaowei's eyes. He is a weak, cowardly person who cannot face himself.
But in front of Yun Qing, he didn't need to hide, he didn't need to pretend to be strong, he was like a baby in front of Yun Qing.
When Yun Qing praised him, he felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction and belonging.
The corners of Su Ming's mouth flattened. He looked at Zhou Xuyao, and for the first time showed hostile eyes towards someone.
Zhou Xuyao laughed, and he whispered something in Yun Qingcen's ear, and Su Ming's hands started shaking inexplicably.
Su Ming didn't know what he was afraid of, but when Zhou Xuyao spoke, he was so frightened that his mind was dazed.
He felt that Zhou Xuyao saw something, and felt that Zhou Xuyao told Yun Qing what he saw.
It seems that his despicableness has been spread out again, and he has been spread out in the sun for others to judge.
Then he saw Yun Qing standing up.
Under the company's incandescent light, Yun Qing looked like a person made of white jade, delicate and lifeless, without blood. He faced Su Ming and said to Su Ming, "Is there any good news? Come here."
Su Ming walked over obediently and dully. Before he walked over, he picked up the tablet that had just fallen on the ground. He didn't look at Zhou Xuyao, he almost regarded Zhou Xuyao as air, and only had Yun Qingcen in his eyes.
Yun Qingcen sat on the single sofa instead of continuing to sit with Zhou Xuyao, which made Su Ming feel much better.
"Bill." Su Ming wiped the tablet as if offering a treasure, and then opened the form to show Yun Qingcen.
It has the expenses during this period, as well as the income, and the net income after throwing out the costs.
negative number.
Because what Yun Qingcen wants is not to make money, he is selling puppets at a discount. The cost price of a puppet quoted by the factory is 32, but Yun Qingcen only sells it for [-].
The more you sell, the more Yun Qingcen loses.
But Su Ming didn't know that this was a business that was bound to lose money. He thought it was just a marketing tool. All stores would be discounted or even given away for free when they first opened, but most of these initial investments were worthwhile. He will earn more money in the future, so sales are what Su Ming cares most about.
"The sale has sold 16 pieces so far." Su Ming happily said to Yun Qingcen.
Yun Qingcen looked into Su Ming's eyes and said to Su Ming, "Come closer."
Su Ming was stunned for a moment, he looked left and right a little dodgingly, but he still walked up to Yun Qingcen and squatted down in front of Yun Qingcen.
Although Su Ming doesn't know Yun Qingcen as well as Zhou Xuyao, his intuition tells him that Yun Qing definitely doesn't like people looking down on him.
Yun Qingcen stretched out his hand, his fingers were slender, white, round, with distinct bony knots, this hand slowly placed on Su Ming's head, and gently rubbed it.
This is a very gentle movement. Under such "caressing", Su Ming slowly relaxed, and suddenly felt a burst of unspeakable sadness. His emotions suddenly collapsed, and he threw himself on Yun Qingcen's body like a child. On his lap, he buried his head in Yun Qingcen's thigh, wetting Yun Qingcen's pants wet.
But Yun Qingcen was like a "loving mother", stroking Su Ming's hair and patting him on the back.
Su Ming didn't feel ashamed until he had cried enough, but when he raised his head, Yun Qingcen looked at him without contempt, but calmly, as if it was normal for him to cry.
He was worried that Yunqing would say that he was "not like a man", but Yunqing didn't say anything.
Su Ming wiped away his tears, and then he heard Yun Qingcen say: "Look, you can be very good at doing things with your heart, isn't it?"
Su Ming nodded, smiled in embarrassment, and then hid out with the excuse of "I'm going to the toilet".
After Su Ming left, Zhou Xuyao said to Yun Qingcen, "The way he looks at you is the same way I looked at you back then."
Zhou Xuyao didn't take Su Ming seriously. If it was ten years ago, he might still be hostile to Su Ming, thinking that Su Ming was another potential competitor.
But now he doesn't feel that way.
He found his shadow in Su Ming, and he was glad that he met Yun Qingcen when Yun Qingcen was still alive.
Yun Qingcen said with a smile: "You were more fragile than him before."
Zhou Xuyao disagreed with this statement: "How is it possible?"
Yun Qingcen just laughed.
Back then, Zhou Xuyao was not much better than Su Ming. They were both full of confusion about life at that time, but Zhou Xuyao was worse than Su Ming in that his master died, and his only bond in this world was gone.
He has no friends, no lover, and after he lost his master, those clients who used to call him to make an appointment no longer called him. He was almost declared "dead", a social death, but he was alive, able to walk and Talking can eat, but no one will remember him, he is like a ghost.
When Yun Qingcen first met him, he thought he was a young wolf. He didn't know how to disguise himself as a sheep, so he couldn't find his place in the crowd, so he could only growl and hide in his little wolf. world.
He looks vicious, but in fact he is just a tight string that will break at the slightest touch, with a fragile and hopeless beauty.
It was precisely because of Zhou Xuyao's "beauty" at that time that Yun Qingcen approached him, and it was also the existence of Yun Qingcen that made Zhou Xuyao "live" again.
It's just that now Zhou Xuyao has found his new seat and has become mature. Only when facing Yun Qingcen, the lonely and desperate little boy deep in his heart will poke his head out.
But Zhou Xuyao like this is no longer "beautiful" enough in Yun Qingcen's heart.
He is successful in the eyes of others, but ordinary in Yun Qingcen's eyes.
Yun Qingcen stood up, he stretched his waist, his clothes were pulled up with his movements, Zhou Xuyao could see Yun Qingcen's waist and the looming black scales around his waist.
The puppet made the snake on Yun Qingcen's body a little thicker.
But it's only a little bit. It is conceivable that more resources will be needed to "feed" this snake in the future, and the speed will be slower.
"I'll go to the lounge to sleep for a while." Yun Qingcen rubbed his neck, "Remember to wake me up at ten o'clock, I have to go back and have a good night's rest, and I have to see Xu Fan tomorrow."
Zhou Xuyao just watched Yun Qingcen walk into the lounge.
Not long after Yun Qingcen went in, Su Ming came out of the bathroom. Zhou Xuyao looked at Su Ming and felt that Su Ming was like a quail that was shivering under the eaves after being drenched in the rain. Your own life-saving straw.
Zhou Xuyao smiled and asked Su Ming, "Do you still want to return to the entertainment industry?"
Su Ming looked at him vigilantly, and then asked in a stiff voice, "Is it related to you?"
Zhou Xuyao smiled, stood up, and spread his hands towards Su Ming: "I advise you to see your seat clearly, don't walk into the abyss and find that you can't climb up."
"That will make you miserable." Zhou Xuyao put his hand on the light switch, "Zheng Shaowei is your lesson from the past."
Then he turned off the lights on this side and went into the other lounge.
Su Ming was left alone on the sofa.
Su Ming suddenly patted his face. He still had work to do. He had to recruit a designer, an accountant, a cleaning lady and two customer service staff for the company.
Now he has multiple jobs by himself, and he is the customer service guest.
The thought of him recruiting good people, and these people are indeed excellent, and Yun Qing will praise him again, makes his heart full.
He is neither afraid nor worried about being abandoned, as long as he can keep doing things for Yun Qing, Yun Qing will not abandon him.
At least he thought so.
At ten o'clock, Zhou Xuyao really called Yun Qingcen up. Yun Qingcen was driven home by Zhou Xuyao, and when he was sent downstairs, Yun Qingcen saw Ren Yun waiting at the door.
Zhou Xuyao's face changed. He originally wanted to park the car downstairs because he knew that Yun Qingcen would not invite him upstairs, but now that Ren Yun was standing there, it was impossible for Zhou Xuyao to send him off as he had planned before. Arrive and leave.
"Qing Cen?" Zhou Xuyao turned his head and smiled at Yun Qing Cen, "I'll take you upstairs."
Yun Qingcen yawned, waved his hands and said, "No, it's not that my leg is broken, even if it is broken, I can still connect it."
Ren Yun was wearing a black windbreaker and was carrying a shopping bag in his hand. He should have come to give Yun Qingcen a gift.
Yun Qingcen likes "surprises". Compared with the gift itself, he prefers the feeling before opening the gift package, which is unknown and novel.
He got out of the car, and Zhou Xuyao got out of the car too.
Zhou Xuyao looked at Ren Yun with the eyes of a wolf. He knew the existence of Ren Yun, and everyone who had come into contact with Yun Qingcen knew it.
But Ren Yun turned a blind eye, and walked towards Yun Qingcen, ignoring Zhou Xuyao who was standing behind Yun Qingcen.
Ren Yun walked up to Yun Qingcen, turned sideways slightly, raised one arm, held Yun Qingcen and walked forward, then handed the gift bag to Yun Qingcen, and said affectionately: "I'm passing by today. When I saw it, I thought it was suitable for you."
Yun Qingcen took the gift bag and said with a smile, "I will definitely like what you gave me."
Ren Yun lowered his head slightly, and said something in Yun Qingcen's ear. Yun Qingcen seemed to be amused, and his shoulders shook slightly.
Zhou Xuyao walked to the side of the two with a dark face, and quietly moved between Yun Qingcen and Ren Yun, and then put his hands on Ren Yun's shoulders as if they were brothers, and then took advantage of the situation to put aside Ren Yun's arm and squeezed Into the middle of the two.
"I didn't expect Mr. Zhou to be here." Ren Yun said with a smile.
Although they have never met each other, they have heard each other's name and know each other's identity.
Zhou Xuyao: "I didn't expect there to be someone standing here so late. I thought I was wrong just now. After all, Mr. Ren has a lot to do recently. So many people's livelihoods are on your shoulders. Can you take out It’s not easy to be empty.”
Zhou Xuyao sighed, and laughed at himself: "Unlike me, I don't have a fixed job, and my life is not stable."
Ren Yun also said politely: "Now the company is on the right track. I don't need to do much now, and what should be done has already been done. The next step is to look at the direction of adjustment."
Yun Qingcen knew that they might have to talk non-stop, and interrupted: "Okay, you can send it here, I will go upstairs first."
He turned his head, smiled at Ren Yun, and shook the gift bag: "Thank you, I'll check it out when I get back, and I'll call you when the time comes."
Ren Yun did not continue talking to Zhou Xuyao, but watched Yun Qingcen enter the building.
Zhou Xuyao also watched Yun Qingcen go in.
After Yun Qingcen entered, Ren Yun looked at Yun Qingcen's back and said, "How long is Mr. Zhou going to stay with Qingcen?"
Zhou Xuyao took out a pack of cigarettes from his bag, then stretched out his hand to protect the flame, lit the cigarette end, and waited for him to exhale a puff of white mist before saying, "If possible, of course it will be for a lifetime."
Ren Yun chuckled: "Mr. Zhou, sometimes don't think too beautifully, you may not be suitable."
However, Zhou Xuyao had already turned his head and walked towards his car. He said as he walked, "Mr. Ren, worry about me when you have time, why not worry more about yourself. After all, I am by Qingcen's side now, but you are not."
"Look more at the moment."
Zhou Xuyao left, and Ren Yun stood where he was. He was in the dark with a smile on his mouth, but his eyes were full of evil.
Yun Qingcen went to take a bath before going to the living room to unwrap the presents.
The gifts that Yun Qingcen really likes are not "brands". Low-key luxury goods are sold as brands. What he likes are beautiful things, gorgeous designs, elegant and generous.
Just like the emeralds he likes.
Of course, if he goes out to meet people, he probably "likes" low-key luxury.
What Ren Yun gave was a brooch with rubies and diamonds inlaid on it, with platinum as the backing. The rubies and diamonds formed a somewhat weird but wonderful pattern.
Yun Qingcen raised his eyebrows, picked up the brooch and looked at it carefully for a while, then he called Ren Yun.
"I saw the gift." Yun Qingcen's voice was gentle, "I like it too, thank you, Ren Yun."
The word Ren Yun was extremely lingering, as if it had circled around the tip of Yun Qingcen's tongue, which made it a little more ambiguous.
Ren Yun didn't seem to be in the room, and there was a little wind from the receiver. His voice was low and hoarse, full of magnetism: "Just like it, I know you will like that pattern, and the store just happened to say that this brooch is handmade. Only this one."
Yun Qingcen: "Why did you remember it tonight? Just to give you a brooch?"
Ren Yun: "I miss you."
Ren Yun smiled: "I know you're busy these days, so I won't bother you during the day."
"I wanted to restrain myself, but I couldn't."
Yun Qingcen didn't speak for a few seconds, as if touched by Ren Yun, he asked softly, "Where are you now?"
Ren Yun stood by the railing, looking at the light reflected by the river: "It's by the river, come here and blow some air."
Yun Qingcen's voice became softer: "Would you like to come and sit with me?"
Ren Yun's tongue licked the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "It's so late, won't I bother you?"
Yun Qingcen: "No, do you want to come? Yes, or not?"
Ren Yun had already walked towards his car, and he said to Yun Qingcen on the phone, "Can I take it as you are inviting me?"
Yun Qingcen: "Understand as you please."
Ren Yun sat in the driver's seat: "Do you need me to bring you some snacks?"
Yun Qingcen thought for a while: "Bring me a piece of pizza, I like cheese."
Ren Yun started the car: "I like it too."
After hanging up the phone, soft piano music was played in Ren Yun's car, which was like a lover's whisper,
Ren Yun hummed slowly, the car passed the intersection, like a gust of wind, a gust of lightning.
Ren Yun didn't seem anxious at all, but the speed of the car betrayed him.
At least at this moment, he is hot and eager like a wanderer who hasn't returned home for a long time.
And they all found that after fulfilling their wishes, they had bad luck within a week. For example, no matter how they set the alarm clock or asked someone to wake them up this week, they would still be late late and be criticized by their superiors or teachers.
But compared with the fulfilled wishes, these "bad luck" seem to be insignificant.
"The important things to them are actually the same in front of Destiny." Yun Qingcen played with the puppet, he said, "People don't care about the fate of ants, just like Destiny doesn't care about the fate of people."

People like to talk about "metaphysics". Although they say they don't believe it and say it's superstitious and useless, more people will repost it with the mentality of "try it, even if you don't succeed, you can't lose". People like " "Get", but don't love "lose", and it is even difficult to give.
Just like people who get a puppet and make a wish successfully, they clearly know that they have lost something, but they have got what they need most at the moment.
The wisps of gray luck were transferred from them to Yun Qingcen's hands.

He has no friends, no lover, and after he lost his master, those clients who used to call him to make an appointment no longer called him. He was almost declared "dead", a social death, but he was alive, able to walk and Talking can eat, but no one will remember him, he is like a ghost.
When Yun Qingcen first met him, he thought he was a young wolf. He didn't know how to disguise himself as a sheep, so he couldn't find his place in the crowd, so he could only growl and hide in his little wolf. world.
He looks vicious, but in fact he is just a tight string that will break at the slightest touch, with a fragile and hopeless beauty.
It was precisely because of Zhou Xuyao's "beauty" at that time that Yun Qingcen approached him, and it was also the existence of Yun Qingcen that made Zhou Xuyao "live" again.
It's just that now Zhou Xuyao has found his new seat and has become mature. Only when facing Yun Qingcen, the lonely and desperate little boy deep in his heart will poke his head out.
But Zhou Xuyao like this is no longer "beautiful" enough in Yun Qingcen's heart.
He is successful in the eyes of others, but ordinary in Yun Qingcen's eyes.
Yun Qingcen stood up, he stretched his waist, his clothes were pulled up with his movements, Zhou Xuyao could see Yun Qingcen's waist and the looming black scales around his waist.
The puppet made the snake on Yun Qingcen's body a little thicker.
But it's only a little bit. It is conceivable that more resources will be needed to "feed" this snake in the future, and the speed will be slower.
"I'll go to the lounge to sleep for a while." Yun Qingcen rubbed his neck, "Remember to wake me up at ten o'clock, I have to go back and have a good night's rest, and I have to see Xu Fan tomorrow."
Zhou Xuyao just watched Yun Qingcen walk into the lounge.
Not long after Yun Qingcen went in, Su Ming came out of the bathroom. Zhou Xuyao looked at Su Ming and felt that Su Ming was like a quail that was shivering under the eaves after being drenched in the rain. Your own life-saving straw.
Zhou Xuyao smiled and asked Su Ming, "Do you still want to return to the entertainment industry?"
Su Ming looked at him vigilantly, and then asked in a stiff voice, "Is it related to you?"
Zhou Xuyao smiled, stood up, and spread his hands towards Su Ming: "I advise you to see your seat clearly, don't walk into the abyss and find that you can't climb up."
"That will make you miserable." Zhou Xuyao put his hand on the light switch, "Zheng Shaowei is your lesson from the past."
Then he turned off the lights on this side and went into the other lounge.
Su Ming was left alone on the sofa.
Su Ming suddenly patted his face. He still had work to do. He had to recruit a designer, an accountant, a cleaning lady and two customer service staff for the company.
Now he has multiple jobs by himself, and he is the customer service guest.
The thought of him recruiting good people, and these people are indeed excellent, and Yun Qing will praise him again, makes his heart full.
He is neither afraid nor worried about being abandoned, as long as he can keep doing things for Yun Qing, Yun Qing will not abandon him.
At least he thought so.
At ten o'clock, Zhou Xuyao really called Yun Qingcen up. Yun Qingcen was driven home by Zhou Xuyao, and when he was sent downstairs, Yun Qingcen saw Ren Yun waiting at the door.
Zhou Xuyao's face changed. He originally wanted to park the car downstairs because he knew that Yun Qingcen would not invite him upstairs, but now that Ren Yun was standing there, it was impossible for Zhou Xuyao to send him off as he had planned before. Arrive and leave.
"Qing Cen?" Zhou Xuyao turned his head and smiled at Yun Qing Cen, "I'll take you upstairs."
Yun Qingcen yawned, waved his hands and said, "No, it's not that my leg is broken, even if it is broken, I can still connect it."
Ren Yun was wearing a black windbreaker and was carrying a shopping bag in his hand. He should have come to give Yun Qingcen a gift.
Yun Qingcen likes "surprises". Compared with the gift itself, he prefers the feeling before opening the gift package, which is unknown and novel.
He got out of the car, and Zhou Xuyao got out of the car too.
Zhou Xuyao looked at Ren Yun with the eyes of a wolf. He knew the existence of Ren Yun, and everyone who had come into contact with Yun Qingcen knew it.
But Ren Yun turned a blind eye, and walked towards Yun Qingcen, ignoring Zhou Xuyao who was standing behind Yun Qingcen.
Ren Yun walked up to Yun Qingcen, turned sideways slightly, raised one arm, held Yun Qingcen and walked forward, then handed the gift bag to Yun Qingcen, and said affectionately: "I'm passing by today. When I saw it, I thought it was suitable for you."
Yun Qingcen took the gift bag and said with a smile, "I will definitely like what you gave me."
Ren Yun lowered his head slightly, and said something in Yun Qingcen's ear. Yun Qingcen seemed to be amused, and his shoulders shook slightly.
Zhou Xuyao walked to the side of the two with a dark face, and quietly moved between Yun Qingcen and Ren Yun, and then put his hands on Ren Yun's shoulders as if they were brothers, and then took advantage of the situation to put aside Ren Yun's arm and squeezed Into the middle of the two.
"I didn't expect Mr. Zhou to be here." Ren Yun said with a smile.
Although they have never met each other, they have heard each other's name and know each other's identity.
Zhou Xuyao: "I didn't expect there to be someone standing here so late. I thought I was wrong just now. After all, Mr. Ren has a lot to do recently. So many people's livelihoods are on your shoulders. Can you take out It’s not easy to be empty.”
Zhou Xuyao sighed, and laughed at himself: "Unlike me, I don't have a fixed job, and my life is not stable."
Ren Yun also said politely: "Now the company is on the right track. I don't need to do much now, and what should be done has already been done. The next step is to look at the direction of adjustment."
Yun Qingcen knew that they might have to talk non-stop, and interrupted: "Okay, you can send it here, I will go upstairs first."
He turned his head, smiled at Ren Yun, and shook the gift bag: "Thank you, I'll check it out when I get back, and I'll call you when the time comes."
Ren Yun did not continue talking to Zhou Xuyao, but watched Yun Qingcen enter the building.
Zhou Xuyao also watched Yun Qingcen go in.
After Yun Qingcen entered, Ren Yun looked at Yun Qingcen's back and said, "How long is Mr. Zhou going to stay with Qingcen?"
Zhou Xuyao took out a pack of cigarettes from his bag, then stretched out his hand to protect the flame, lit the cigarette end, and waited for him to exhale a puff of white mist before saying, "If possible, of course it will be for a lifetime."
Ren Yun chuckled: "Mr. Zhou, sometimes don't think too beautifully, you may not be suitable."
However, Zhou Xuyao had already turned his head and walked towards his car. He said as he walked, "Mr. Ren, worry about me when you have time, why not worry more about yourself. After all, I am by Qingcen's side now, but you are not."
"Look more at the moment."
Zhou Xuyao left, and Ren Yun stood where he was. He was in the dark with a smile on his mouth, but his eyes were full of evil.
Yun Qingcen went to take a bath before going to the living room to unwrap the presents.
The gifts that Yun Qingcen really likes are not "brands". Low-key luxury goods are sold as brands. What he likes are beautiful things, gorgeous designs, elegant and generous.
Just like the emeralds he likes.
Of course, if he goes out to meet people, he probably "likes" low-key luxury.
What Ren Yun gave was a brooch with rubies and diamonds inlaid on it, with platinum as the backing. The rubies and diamonds formed a somewhat weird but wonderful pattern.
Yun Qingcen raised his eyebrows, picked up the brooch and looked at it carefully for a while, then he called Ren Yun.
"I saw the gift." Yun Qingcen's voice was gentle, "I like it too, thank you, Ren Yun."
The word Ren Yun was extremely lingering, as if it had circled around the tip of Yun Qingcen's tongue, which made it a little more ambiguous.
Ren Yun didn't seem to be in the room, and there was a little wind from the receiver. His voice was low and hoarse, full of magnetism: "Just like it, I know you will like that pattern, and the store just happened to say that this brooch is handmade. Only this one."
Yun Qingcen: "Why did you remember it tonight? Just to give you a brooch?"
Ren Yun: "I miss you."
Ren Yun smiled: "I know you're busy these days, so I won't bother you during the day."
"I wanted to restrain myself, but I couldn't."
Yun Qingcen didn't speak for a few seconds, as if touched by Ren Yun, he asked softly, "Where are you now?"
Ren Yun stood by the railing, looking at the light reflected by the river: "It's by the river, come here and blow some air."
Yun Qingcen's voice became softer: "Would you like to come and sit with me?"
Ren Yun's tongue licked the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "It's so late, won't I bother you?"
Yun Qingcen: "No, do you want to come? Yes, or not?"
Ren Yun had already walked towards his car, and he said to Yun Qingcen on the phone, "Can I take it as you are inviting me?"
Yun Qingcen: "Understand as you please."
Ren Yun sat in the driver's seat: "Do you need me to bring you some snacks?"
Yun Qingcen thought for a while: "Bring me a piece of pizza, I like cheese."
Ren Yun started the car: "I like it too."
After hanging up the phone, soft piano music was played in Ren Yun's car, which was like a lover's whisper,
Ren Yun hummed slowly, the car passed the intersection, like a gust of wind, a gust of lightning.
Ren Yun didn't seem anxious at all, but the speed of the car betrayed him.
At least at this moment, he is hot and eager like a wanderer who hasn't returned home for a long time.
