I Just Came to Borrow a Light

When Lin Chengbu got up in the morning, Yuan Wu was still sleeping, with half of his face buried in the gap between two pillows, Lin Chengbu felt that he would be suffocated to death.

He stretched out his hand to move the pillow away to let him breathe, but as soon as his hand touched the pillow, Yuan Wu slapped it away.

"I'm suffocating you!" Lin Chengbu whispered.

Yuan Wu frowned and didn't move.

He had no choice but to reach out his hand again firmly, and quickly tugged at the pillow.

Yuan Wu's head was empty, he fell on the mattress, and finally opened half of his eyes, his voice was full of displeasure: "You are fucking sick, aren't you?"

"I'm afraid you'll be out of breath." Lin Chengbu said.

"I can breathe well," Yuan Wu turned over, "I can even breathe out of you, why don't you try it."

"No," Lin Chengbu smiled, "Hey, I'm going to Chunzhi soon, you can eat by yourself today."

"Well," Yuan Wu responded, "Get lost."

Lin Cheng stepped out of the bedroom and closed the door.

I am in a very good mood, a completely different mood from the previous good mood.

There is a feeling that every organ in the whole body is lying on the ground, very solid, very solid, very solid... But on the other hand, I feel very relaxed, very relaxed, very relaxed, and there is a breeze when I walk.

When I entered the bathroom, I almost threw out my slippers with ease.

Before going out, Lin Chengbu put eggs and bacon in bread for himself, thinking of making one for Yuan Wu, but he hesitated and gave up.

Yuan Wu has grown up without him for 30 years. Even if he is not mentally healthy, his body is still very healthy. There is really no need for him to always treat Yuan Wu as a person who cannot take care of himself.

There is bread, bacon, and eggs. If Yuan Wu wants to eat, he can eat it by himself, and if he doesn't want to eat, he can order a takeaway.

Gee.

Lin Chengbu went out while eating bread, don't make yourself into an old woman.

Everything was as usual for Chunzhi, Lin Chengbu came back and received enthusiastic crowds, chatting with the kitchen staff for a long time before being called to the office by Sun Yingchun.

He reported everything about the training, and Sun Yingchun asked many questions carefully.

"It's not a small gain, is it?" she asked.

"Well," Lin Chengbu smiled, "Thank you for giving me this opportunity."

"Don't be so polite with me," Sun Yingchun said, "I didn't give you this opportunity for nothing, you still have to use it."

"Is it about opening a branch as I said before?" Lin Chengbu asked.

"Yes," Sun Yingchun nodded, "The back kitchen of the branch is yours, but it must be tiring in the early stage. Our reputation has already been established. No matter how you say the branch is Chunzhi's branch, many people still don't recognize it."

"En." Lin Chengbu responded.

"You and I have been together for so many years, you know everything about the back kitchen, and you know how to manage it," Sun Yingchun said, "So I think it's just you, and you pick a few that are compatible and bring them over."

"Okay." Lin Chengbu said.

"You won't negotiate terms with me?" Sun Yingchun looked at him, "You don't even think about it?"

"No," Lin Chengbu said, "You will definitely agree to the normal conditions, and I don't have any abnormal conditions anyway."

"Hey, I just like your simplicity," Sun Yingchun smiled, "Okay, you can rest today, just get back and rest well, we will have a meeting tomorrow and talk about it in detail."

Everyone in the back kitchen knew something about the branch store, but Lin Chengbu really didn't connect his training with this matter at the beginning. When Sun Yingchun asked, he suddenly realized it in his heart.

Slow enough, but on the surface he remained calm and felt that he was pretty awesome.

After chatting, as soon as he came out from Sun Yingchun's place, several people gathered around to inquire.

In fact, everything here is pretty good, but people have been working in one place for a long time, and they want to change the environment, hoping to take it to a higher level. There are still very few people like No. 18 Daqi who only live their lives as bartenders.

Lin Chengbu didn't say anything, he won't know exactly what's going on until after tomorrow's meeting.

Originally, he came here today to report, but Lin Chengbu still went to change his clothes. He planned to stay in the shop at noon. In the past few months, a lot of his work has fallen on his master. Everyone came here today. It is impossible to keep a consultant-level person like Master busy.

There aren’t too many guests at noon today, and I don’t feel tired. I’m probably in a good mood. After three months of training, I went to sleep from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-] every day and had to write a summary. I didn’t take a good rest after I came back. I didn't feel anything after being busy in the back kitchen for two or three hours.

Sure enough, people are in good spirits on happy occasions...

It's just that when he thought of going home in the afternoon and facing all kinds of interrogation and doubts from his mother, he felt a little depressed.

Back then, he came out smoothly. His mother didn't cry or scold him or beat him up. She seemed confused for several months, and then she accepted it after she cleared the fog.

Lin Huiyu helped him a lot during this time, and kept explaining to his parents, but Lin Chengbu never expected that once he accepted the fact that he would be with a man in the future, these two women would be more important than picking a wife. Be attentive.

Whenever he has close contact with a man, even if it is a colleague or friend, his mother and Lin Huiyu will inquire very nervously, and then start discussing whether this man is okay or not, and generally deny it.

My mother has never seen Yuan Wu, but Lin Huiyu has, and described to my mother the image of a decadent, ruthless, arrogant and rude bartender who has been in the bar for many years.

From that moment on, the two of them felt that Yuan Wu was no good, their son was too innocent, and when he met such an old man, he would either be played to death or killed.

However, because Lin Cheng made a lot of effort and couldn't catch up with Yuan Wu, the two of them didn't ask any more questions after they put him in the group of fans, until Lin Huiyu found out that Yuan Wu was "crazy", and her baby brother was still obsessed with it. After chasing the stars, the cycle of vetoes started again.

To be honest, Lin Chengbu didn't know how to make it easier for his mother to accept the fact that he was with Yuan Wu, but he just thought that whether he agreed or not, this matter could not be changed.

After finishing his lunch, Lin Chengbu was thinking whether to call Yuan Wu, but the phone rang just as he took it out, and his mother called.

"Mom?" He answered the phone.

"Didn't you say you'll come over today!" My mother's tone was full of complaints, but she could hear expectations, "There's no call at this hour, you're really busy, Boss Lin!"

"I'm going there now," Lin Chengbu said quickly, "I'm about to go there now, do you have food at home?"

"There is no food," said my mother. "Your father and I will starve to death if you don't buy food."

"What do you want to eat?" Lin Chengbu smiled, "I'll make you something delicious tonight."

"You know how to do it!" Mom said.

"I have other tricks," Lin Chengbu said, "I'll show you one later."

After calling my mother, Yuan Wu's call came in: "I've had dinner."

"I was just about to ask you," Lin Chengbu said, "Do you want takeaway?"

"No, didn't you put bread there, I fried eggs and ate it." Yuan Wu said.

"You know how to fry eggs?" Lin Chengbu said.

"That said, who doesn't know how to fry eggs?" Yuan Wu smiled, "It's nothing more than the difference between pasting one side or pasting both sides."

"You must be confused." Lin Chengbu said.

"Well," Yuan Wu admitted honestly, "I picked out the egg yolk and ate it, but the outside was all mushy, so I had to throw it away. Fortunately, I fried three..."

"All three are confused?" Lin Chengbu was stunned.

"Nonsense, three eggs are smashed into the pot and they are all connected together. If you want to paste them, they must be paste together," Yuan Wu said, "I ate three egg yolks, and they are still good."

"...Is my cooking okay?" Lin Chengbu sighed.

"It's pretty good, it's not sticky, it's wild." Yuan Wu said.

"How do you eat at night?" Lin Chengbu laughed, "I have to make a meal for my mother to calm down the anger that I haven't seen her for months."

"I'm going to the 18th later, and I made an appointment with Chengyu for dinner," Yuan Wu said, "You can go directly to the 18th tonight, I'll add an extra show tonight."

"Okay." Lin Chengbu nodded.

When Lin Chengbu returned home with the vegetables, he felt that he hadn't been back for a long time, and his father's gray hair could be seen to have increased.

"Did my mother bully you?" Lin Chengbu stroked his father's hair, "The hair is whiter than what I saw last time."

"Well, it's bullying," my mother said on the side, "you will come back in another 50 years, and your father let me bully you to death."

"Hey," Lin Chengbu hugged his mother, "Don't talk nonsense."

"Why are you so thin?" Mom looked at him, "This sharp chin can hoe the ground."

"Can we not be so exaggerated?" Lin Chengbu sighed, "I haven't even slept enough in the past three months of training, can I not lose weight?"

"Didn't he fall in love and lose weight?" Mom lifted up his clothes and looked up at his stomach.

"Hey," Lin Chengbu pulled up his clothes, "I just started talking, it has nothing to do with being fat or thin."

"Come here," my mother sat on the sofa and beckoned to him, "Sit here."

Lin Chengbu walked over and sat next to her. Dad took a pot of boiled fruit tea and put it on the coffee table before going back to the back room. Usually, Dad doesn't talk much about such things.

"How far are you two now?" Mom asked.

"What...what is the degree?" Lin Chengbu felt that his mother's question was extremely embarrassing.

"I didn't ask you about the extent of the relationship." Mom frowned, "I don't need to ask anything else, I know that I must have slept."

"...Hey." Lin Chengbu turned his head and covered his forehead, feeling his face was burning.

"Speak up," my mother pushed him, "Didn't he look down on you before, why are you together all of a sudden?"

"It wasn't all of a sudden," Lin Chengbu sighed, "I just didn't say anything. We've been together for half a year, and it's only been confirmed recently."

"Is he really not crazy?" Mom frowned.

"I'm not crazy at all, I beg you, Mom," Lin Chengbu put his arm around her shoulders, "Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, be good."

Mom also sighed, and after a while of silence, she spoke again: "Actually, you don't care if you are in a relationship, and you have no opinion at all. The key is to see what kind of person you find."

"Yuan Wu is a pretty good person." Lin Chengbu said.

"He's just a gangster, mixing drinks in the bar, you said the bar is so messy," my mother still frowned, "he's been hanging around in that kind of place, I really can't accept it...you said you used to I don't even want to go to the bar..."

"He's just working in a bar, and he's not here to hang out. Let's talk about his personality." Lin Chengbu poured a cup of fruit tea for his mother. "It's really not something that can be changed by the environment."

"Why are you so obsessed with him?" Mom took the cup and didn't drink, with a puzzled expression on her face, "Aren't you thinking about getting in touch with other people?"

"Before I met him, I met other people, but I didn't meet anyone with feelings," Lin Chengbu said. "When I saw him, I felt it. There was no need or possibility to think about others."

"You think it's him?" Mom looked at him, "I can't change it?"

Lin Chengbu also looked at his mother, and after a while he said, "It's the same as when you asked me if I could change my sexual orientation. I don't have the final say on the relationship."

"Don't hang around with me, it's not you who has the final say, who has the final say!" His mother glared at him.

"Heavenly Father." Lin Chengbu pointed upwards.

"Hey, why are you so annoying!" Mom patted his arms and back with a set of Baguazhang, and finally sighed heavily.

"Mom," Lin Chengbu squeezed her arm, "Let me, other things are easy to discuss, but this matter, there is no need to discuss, it's him, no matter what anyone says, it doesn't work, you say it doesn't work, I Dad said it didn't work, really."

Mom turned her head and stared at him.

"Really," Lin Chengbu repeated.

Mom continued to stare at him: "I want to see him and let him come to eat at home."

Take Yuan Wu home for dinner and meet his parents.

This plot finally came, and Lin Chengbu was a little excited. After all, this was the first step for his parents to accept Yuan Wu, and it was also the first step for him to be together with Yuan Wu confidently and without any burden.

But besides excitement, he was more worried.

Although he said that no matter whether his mother, father or Lin Huiyu, he would not refer to anyone's attitude, he was still worried about Yuan Wu's state.

Yuan Wu has no concept of family, has never enjoyed family affection, and may not be able to understand the various attitudes of parents based on family affection.

Seeing parents, which would bring pressure to many people, may be even more stressful in Yuan Wu's place.

When he came out from the 18th at night, Lin Chengbu suddenly couldn't speak.

"Do you want supper?" Yuan Wu looked at the time, "I'm a little hungry...not hungry, just a little greedy."

"Okay," Lin Chengbu nodded, "What do you eat? Barbecue?"

"I'm not interested in barbecue," Yuan Wu hesitated, "I suddenly want to eat puff pastry."

"...Huh?" Lin Chengbu was stunned, "It's gone now, isn't it?"

"It's definitely gone," Yuan Wu tugged at the collar and put on the mask, "Why don't you eat dumplings, I really want to eat pasta right now."

"Aren't you greedy?" Lin Chengbu wanted to laugh, "You're just hungry."

"It's possible," Yuan Wu glanced at him, "Go and eat dumplings."

"Okay," Lin Chengbu put his arms around his waist, then lifted his clothes and touched in to pinch him, "You just eat like this, and you're not fat?"

"The old man's wildness," Yuan Wu said, "is mad at you."

Eating dumplings is much more convenient than eating cakes. There are dumplings in the night snack shop. Yuan Wu ate one boiled dumpling and one fried dumpling, and drank a bowl of soup.

"Do you eat more when you're in a good mood?" Lin Chengbu asked.

"Probably," Yuan Wu said, "I'm in a good mood today."

"Is it because of falling in love?" Lin Chengbu asked again with a smile.

"Yeah," Yuan Wu glanced at him, "Because we can see each other every day, and because we don't have to keep thinking about when you will come back... so I'm in a very good mood."

Lin Chengbu grinned and couldn't take it back, so he had to take a sip of soup to hide his expression.

"You are willing to listen to this." Yuan Wu said.

"Nonsense, who doesn't want to listen to it," Lin Chengbu said with a smile, "So if you fall in love, you will get fat."

"Don't make excuses for yourself getting fat again after a while." Yuan Wu said.

Lin Chengbu laughed for a long time.

Yuan Wu seemed to be in a good mood, he hesitated for a while, and decided to talk to Yuan Wu right now.

"Hey, uncle," Lin Chengbu lit a cigarette, "I have something to discuss with you."

"Yeah." Yuan Wu also took a cigarette and lit it.

"Just today I went home and chatted with my mother for a while," Lin Chengbu said, "Tell her about the two of us..."

"Yeah." Yuan Wu glanced at him.

Lin Chengbu could see the puzzlement in Yuan Wu's eyes, maybe in his heart he felt that it would be redundant to report this matter to his parents.

"My mother, just, she wants to invite you to have a meal at home," Lin Chengbu said, and then quickly added, "But if you are not used to it, we can go to a restaurant to eat."

Yuan Wu didn't speak.

"Do you feel a little sudden?" Lin Chengbu touched his hand, "Parents, they are usually like this, and they are more worried about these things."

"When?" Yuan Wu asked.

"We can set the time," Lin Chengbu said, "You can go anytime you want."

"Oh," Yuan Wu replied, "Aren't you afraid that I will make a date for next year or the year after next?"

Lin Chengbu was stunned: "Are you planning to wait until next year?"

"Yeah." Yuan Wu looked at him.

"Whatever you want," Lin Chengbu said, "is fine."

"I can't explain it to your family, right?" Yuan Wu smiled.

"It doesn't matter," Lin Chengbu sighed softly, "Actually, it doesn't mean anything else to let you go home. Their attitudes won't affect me, but they still want to be perfect after all."

"Next week," Yuan Wu took out his phone and looked at the calendar, "Years ago Chengyu said he wanted to add an extra show, I'll see which day is suitable."

"Really?" Lin Chengbu looked at him in surprise.

"Fake," Yuan Wu said, "hurry up and cry."

Lin Chengbu laughed and squeezed Yuan Wu's hand: "Thank you."

"Actually, you don't need to worry about whether I will make things difficult for you," Yuan Wu flicked on his hand, "It's quite a normal thing. The son was kidnapped, and the parents want to check the buyer. There's nothing wrong with it. nothing."

Lin Chengbu smiled and said nothing.

"But let me tell you first," Yuan Wu said, "People I don't know well..."

"I know," Lin Chengbu nodded, "Except for Jiang Chengyu and me, you basically don't talk to anyone. You don't need to talk, as long as you go."

"Do I still have to wear your style of clothes?" Yuan Wu asked, "Middle-aged and elderly..."

"I'm not middle-aged or old!" Lin Chengbu interrupted him, a little helpless, "I'm really confused, what is wrong with my clothes?"

Yuan Wu laughed: "Ordinary youth."

"You don't have to dress like an ordinary youth," Lin Chengbu said, "I know you go to work on the 18th. It's strange that you are dressed too ordinary."

"That's fine." Yuan Wu nodded.

"Uncle," Lin Chengbu tapped on the table lightly, "I'm so nervous."

"Don't call me uncle in front of your parents." Yuan Wu pointed at him.

"Yuanwu." Lin Chengbu called him.

"En." Yuan Wu responded.

"Baby." Lin Chengbu smiled and called again.

"Animals," Yuan Wu stood up, "Let's go, I'm sleepy."

"Going home?" Lin Chengbu immediately stood up and asked while putting on his coat.
