After saving Bai Yueguang's substitute

【Xu Zhinian's Diary-22】

August 2022, 4, sunny

Rafael Winery sent them an anniversary gift, in addition to wine, there are some snacks.

Mr. Jiang doesn't like dessert very much, and I don't drink much.

So according to the usual practice, the wine belongs to Mr. Jiang, and the snacks belong to me.

This anniversary gift was delivered by the founder of the winery himself.

Mr. Jiang said that his surname is Duan, and he is also my senior.

Senior Duan is a very talkative person. I can see that Mr. Jiang is in a very happy mood when chatting with him, and he doesn't frown much.

When I was leaving, I sent Senior Duan to the door, and I couldn’t help but praise: "The dim sum in your winery is delicious, I like it very much."

Unexpectedly, Senior Duan laughed twice, and said: "Yes, when Mr. Jiang asked me to apply for VIP, he specifically said that he hoped that there would be some snacks in the gift."

Me: "..." I want to know that this sentence is for me.

My heart is flattered.

How could I not love Mr. Jiang like this.

Zhinian: Mr. Jiang!I just finished listening to the speech of the head of the department!

The moment I received Xu Zhinian's message, the isolated island, the sky and the sea all disappeared from my mind.

Those barriers and loneliness are gone.

It seems that with Xu Zhinian, I have re-established contact with the world.

1595

I looked at this message, smiled, and typed back: Have you eaten?

Xu Zhinian replied quickly this time.

Zhinian: After eating a little, the food here looks so exquisite.

Me: Eat more, don't starve yourself.

Zhinian: Mmmmm!

I thought about it, and added: But don't drink too much.

1596

As a well-known winery, Raphael will certainly provide many good wines.

Some of them seem to have low strength, but actually have a lot of stamina. Xu Zhinian is probably not used to drinking them.

Xu Zhinian and I chatted for a while.

Zhinian: How is Mr. Jiang?

Me: Not so good, chatted with a few people, now I'm a bit bored.

Zhinian: Huh?

Me: That's why I want to send you a message.

Xu Zhinian quickly said: Then I will chat with you for a while longer!

1597

Me: That's okay.

Zhinian: Actually, I am also very bored here.You know, I was a transfer class. At that time, I didn’t like to interact with people. I didn’t know many of my classmates. I don’t even remember the names of many people. Now I can only sit and listen to them chatting.

Zhinian: So Mr. Jiang, would you like to chat with me for a while?

Zhinian: Poor.jpg

I suddenly burst out laughing.

I'm good.

1598

I asked Xu Zhinian: What do you want to talk about?

Zhinian: emmmmmmm, let me think about it.

Zhinian: What was Mr. Jiang's graduation party like?

I do not remember.

Zhinian: Huh?

Zhinian: That's right, it's been so many years, it's normal not to remember.

I thought about it carefully for a while, and then replied: I don't seem to have attended the graduation party.

1599

Xu Zhinian seemed to be taken aback for a moment.

After a few seconds, he replied to me: Why didn't you participate?

Me: I was too busy at the time.

Me: And I don't think graduation parties are fun.

Zhinian: But after all, everyone will go their separate ways after today, so it will be somewhat sad.

Me: When I was studying, my relationship with most of my classmates was very cold, so my feelings were not that deep.

Zhinian: Because Mr. Jiang seems a bit unapproachable?

Me: No, I think they seem a little afraid of me.

1600

Zhinian: Afraid of you?

me: ah.

Zhinian: Mr. Jiang is always so powerful, that's why they fear him.

me: maybe.

I lowered my eyes, looked at the phone for a while, and then asked him: Then are you afraid of me?

Zhinian: Of course not.

Zhinian: How could I be afraid of Mr. Jiang?

Zhinian: It's too late for me to love Mr. Jiang.

1601

Hearing what he said, the corners of my lips twitched uncontrollably, and my mood improved a lot.

I chatted with Xu Zhinian intermittently for a while, his graduation party ended early.

Xu Zhinian said, "Mr. Jiang, why don't I come and see you?"

I paused, lowered my eyes, and didn't know how to answer for a while.

Probably because I haven't spoken for a long time, Xu Zhinian asked again: "Is it inconvenient?"

"It's not inconvenient." I replied, "Yan Zhizhe is also there, you might bump into him when you come over."

Xu Zhinian was silent for a few seconds.

I looked at the quiet dialog box, moved my thumb, and was about to talk about something more, when Xu Zhinian texted back.

He said, "It's all right."

1602

"Mr. Jiang." He said, "I always have to face some things."

I asked, "Aren't you scared?"

"I don't know." Xu Zhinian replied.

I sigh.

Xu Zhinian: "Maybe you will still be afraid, but you can't run away because of fear."

I said, "You don't have to force yourself."

"It's not forced." Xu Zhinian said seriously, "I have decided not to let the past affect me anymore, and now I have the courage to face Yan Zhizhe, face the shame and embarrassment of the past."

I hesitated for a few seconds and said, "Okay."

The screen showed that the other party was typing. I waited for a long time, but I didn't get any news.

When he was about to send a question mark, Xu Zhinian's reply jumped out.

Zhinian: Mr. Jiang gave me courage.

1603

【Zhi Nian withdrew a message】

I:?

1604

It took so long for a short sentence, and it was withdrawn in seconds after it was sent.

What's wrong with him?

This is too shy.

Why doesn't he feel shy every time he confesses his love to me loudly?

1605

I raised the corners of my lips and looked at the phone screen for a long time, but I didn't want to make fun of him anymore.

Forget it.

Let him go this time.

1606

Fearing that Xu Zhinian could not find his way, I called a waiter to pick him up.

When he arrived, I asked the waiter to bring him some snacks and fruit.

Then approached, leaned against his neck and sniffed.

"Mr. Jiang." Xu Zhinian looked at me with wide eyes.

Out of the corner of an eye, he glanced at his neck, and it turned red.

I turned around and said calmly, "Have you been drinking?"

"Drink, drank a little." Xu Zhinian said, "I made a toast to the tutor, and there are a few classmates who have a good relationship."

After a pause, he added: "I don't think I drank too much, can you smell it?"

I nodded, "Yeah."

1607

"Has Mr. Jiang been drinking?" Xu Zhinian asked me.

I deliberately teased him: "I won't tell you."

Xu Zhinian: "..."

Me: "Do you want to come and smell it?"

Xu Zhinian blushed even more: "I don't."

I laughed out loud.

1607

After a while, the waiter opened the door and brought in fruits and snacks.

The noise from outside also came in.

I glanced at the door, and there seemed to be a lot more people coming into the room.

"What's going on outside?" I asked the waiter.

"It rained just now." The waiter replied to me, "All the guests have come here to rest."

I frowned slightly: "Oh."

1607

"The snacks at Raphael Winery are also good." I said to Xu Zhinian.

Although I have never been to Raphael Winery, I know many people who are members here. In addition to wine, Raphael Winery will also send some snacks during the festival.

I had it at a friend's place, and I was a little impressed.

Before Xu Zhinian could react, I reached out and took a piece.

When he was about to pick it up, I had already handed it to his mouth.

Xu Zhinian: "Hey."

"Hey what." I said, "Open your mouth."

Xu Zhinian glanced at me and saw that I didn't respond, so he just put his hand down and let me feed him resignedly.

1608

"How is it, is it delicious?" I took a paper towel from the side and slowly wiped off the snack residue on my fingers.

Xu Zhinian puffed his mouth and said inarticulately, "It's delicious."

I nodded in satisfaction, thinking that I should ask Mr. Duan to apply for a membership later.

1609

Xu Zhinian really liked the dim sum here, and after he swallowed this piece, he couldn't help but take another piece by himself.

As a result, he took only a few mouthfuls before he choked on himself and coughed twice violently.

I quickly poured him a glass of water and frowned: "Why are you in such a hurry?"

He gulped down two sips of water before pointing out the window and saying, "No, I, I seem to have seen someone I know just now."

1610

The place where Xu Zhinian was sitting was facing the window, so he could see the people outside.

acquaintance?

I subconsciously frowned.

Is it Yan Zhizhe?

1611

I looked in his direction.

I saw Cui Gaoyang.

The author has something to say: Missing persons return.

I'm really sorry for the long break qaq

Then explain the reason for the break

The biggest reason is that Calvin orz wrote intermittently years ago, which is very stuck.

Years later I changed jobs, and the new job and home don't represent a place.

At the beginning, I couldn't find a place to live. I lived in a hotel for a while, and then moved after renting a house.

I just bought and assembled the furniture _(:зゝ∠)_

Now there is no internet at home...

Of course, these are all external factors. The biggest reason is Calvin. Later, when I wanted to update it, I couldn’t catch up because I didn’t write for a long time.

In fact, it is almost the end, and the plot has already been thought out.

But every time I get stuck at the end.

really sorry qaq

Now I can't guarantee the daily update, it will definitely be updated.

Thank you little angels who are still waiting, love you.

I'm sorry, it's so difficult to change it every other day, let me get used to the mobile phone codewords (the computer is still offline, this is the first time I use the mobile app to change it, I don't know if there will be format errors)
