atypical dependency

The conversation between Wei Zhuoyan and Xiao Yi broke up because of the proposal of a blind date and a gay bar.

Although he wanted to communicate with Xiao Yi in a slightly tactful way, but he really hit a wall once, and Wei Zhuoyan understood that such a sensitive topic involving emotions could never have a perfect answer.

I don't know if I'm throwing down a treaty but ended up abducted into a thief boat. Wei Zhuoyan was quite helpless about the result of this conversation—the two sides were at a stalemate until they finally took a step back and agreed to each other's request, but they both ate Huang Lian Generally speaking, his face was quite depressed.

After the endless conversation in the morning ended, Xiao Yi returned to the company as usual, Wei Zhuoyan also rushed back to the team to change shifts, and was questioned thoroughly by Jin Yang from inside to outside.

The date of the two's "contract" is set for the weekend a week later.

Xiao Yi's company has dealt with most of the headaches, and the previous limelight has gradually passed. Although there are still a lot of compensation for aftershocks to deal with, the overall situation is barely under control; An accident, but fortunately there were no major casualties.

When the agreed date finally arrived, the two men realized in frustration that there was really no excuse to reject their impulsive proposal at the time.

At the moment when the males are competing to be the dominant hormones, the two secretly have no intention of compromising. Although they are very displeased, neither of them pulls down their face and proposes to break the contract with the other party first.

So when Xiao Yi stopped at the address of the restaurant that Wei Zhuoyan sent him during lunch on the weekend with a grimace, Yan Tian became the first wave of victims of the Ice Age.

My boss's face has been quite ugly since the morning. Although the other party did not obviously make things difficult for the employees or give some sky-high tasks that were impossible to complete, the aura that the other party had managed to ease some time ago was completely frozen as if the ice age was coming. You can clearly feel the coldness that scratches the bone marrow.

Noon is no exception.

Yan Tian acted carefully by Xiao Yi's side as if walking on thin ice, and sent him to the main entrance of the restaurant. After hearing Xiao Yi's telling him that he could go home first, he immediately left as if he was grateful for grabbing the life charm.

Standing in the dining room, Xiao Yi listened to the muffled family conversations around him, and searched for Wei Zhuoyan expressionlessly.

This place is different from home-cooked restaurants with a relatively noisy environment. Although it is not as peaceful and elegant as a high-end restaurant, the overall environment is quite comfortable. The dark but gentle warm lighting covers the whole space, giving people a warm and relaxing atmosphere. Pleasure.

Like a king stepping into a forest, Xiao Yi scanned the entire space sharply, and finally located Wei Zhuoyan at a round table in the corner.

To his surprise, the other party was not alone, and there were other men and women sitting at the round table.

After standing for a while, Xiao Yi finally realized what the other party said about the "meeting" of a blind date a week ago.

Originally, the original intention was not a blind date, so Xiao Yi didn't pay special attention to the attire, and came here wearing only the formal business suit he usually wears.

When he went around several tables and walked towards the corner, his gaze was fixed on Wei Zhuoyan straight and focused, as if he wanted to penetrate the man who was chatting and laughing with his neighbor.

After looking it over, he noticed that Wei Zhuoyan's attire was no longer casual as usual. He was wearing a dark blue shirt with a light gray V-neck sweater on top, and the ends of his hair seemed to have been straightened out.

His eyes seemed to be sucked in and he could not move away from the other party's refreshing face, Xiao Yi's expression did not improve.

Thinking that the other party had deliberately dressed up for this kind of fast-food blind date occasion, I felt a sense of suffocation hovering in my heart for no reason.

Wei Zhuoyan was the first to notice him when he was a few steps away from the round table.

There was a distance between the two, and the moment their eyes met, they nodded tacitly.

I wanted to sit next to Wei Zhuoyan, but two women with shy smiles were sitting next to each other, and Xiao Yi couldn't force her in.

So he settled for the next best thing. He pulled up a chair diagonally opposite Wei Zhuoyan and sat down. He took out his mobile phone and fiddled with the address book. In fact, he kept paying attention to the man opposite him as if he was monitoring in real time from the corner of his eye.

Finally, after waiting for nearly 20 minutes, there were 4 men and 5 women sitting at the round table.

Seeing that it was time to order, everyone greeted each other and got acquainted with the basic situation, so they studied the menu together.

Xiao Yi seemed to be an outsider who hadn't had much interaction with other people. After sitting for a while, he realized that the people around him were not completely random blinddates. In fact, they were basically colleagues or friends who had some contact with each other.

A short-haired woman sitting next to Xiao Yi seemed to be very interested in Xiao Yi. Ever since she was seated, she began to strike up a conversation, looking for various topics.

Out of politeness, Xiao Yi maintained a polite and light smile, nodding his head intermittently as a response, but he was completely uninterested.

But I don't know whether it's his alienated attitude or the mystery of distance. Although he didn't say a few words during the whole process, the women at the round table seem to be quite interested in this cold and cold president.

Wei Zhuoyan on the opposite side had been chatting happily with the woman on his right all the time, Xiao Yi felt so tired even serving food, and even wanted to get up and leave the table a few times in the middle.

He knew Wei Zhuoyan's intention in asking him to come, but he also knew that he couldn't make the other party do what he wanted.

It's not that he doesn't want to be interested in women, but that as long as Wei Zhuoyan is present, it's impossible for him to focus on women, and he even has a tendency to classify these weak and gentle beings as competitors without hesitation.

After eating the whole meal, Xiao Yi was suffocated for no apparent reason.

The woman beside him kept chattering, but he didn't show it on his face, but he was already very irritable in his heart.

After the dinner was finally over and the interested parties left each other on the phone and dispersed, Xiao Yi and Wei Zhuoyan walked out of the restaurant side by side, bathed in the bright sun and finally calmed down.

A few minutes ago, when Wei Zhuoyan exchanged phone numbers with the woman who had been chatting with him, Xiao Yi stared at the noisy road with his hands in his pockets and said coldly, "Why, did you find someone you're interested in?"

While fiddling with his mobile phone to reply to text messages, Wei Zhuoyan raised his eyes and glanced at Xiao Yi, absent-mindedly said, "Just to understand." After he finished speaking, he put the mobile phone into his pocket, looked at Xiao Yi and curled his lips, "How about it? Is there anyone I can talk to?"

"..." Xiao Yi stared at the road dimly, without replying.

"How is Chen Yuebin?" Wei Zhuoyan stood next to Xiao Yi, observing the other's face that couldn't understand his emotions.

Xiao Yi glanced at Wei Zhuoyan blankly: "Who?"

Raising his eyebrows unexpectedly, Wei Zhuoyan's eye muscles twitched: "Who? You ask me? Aren't you guys talking all the time?"

After reacting for a while, Xiao Yi realized that the woman sitting next to him who kept talking about herself was Chen Yuebin.

Without showing any expression, he turned his face to the side and said indifferently: "It's good."

The other party's displeasure was not concealed at all, and Wei Zhuoyan could tell it no matter how lame his eyes were.

The smile on his face ebbed before, and he frowned and smacked his lips as he stared at the other party's indifferent look: "Xiao Yi."

Turning his head, Xiao Yi looked at Wei Zhuoyan without saying a word.

"Don't you have anyone you're interested in?" For an introduction-type blind date, Wei Zhuoyan thought that the women at the lunch meal had good work backgrounds, which was much better than a completely blind blind date without any interaction.

Knowing that Xiao Yi is young, he probably has high requirements for women's appearance. Although Wei Zhuoyan has no experience in aesthetics, he thinks that these women at noon are good enough in terms of figure and appearance.

Hearing Wei Zhuoyan's question, Xiao Yi sighed lightly, staring at him resolutely: "Yes."

Hearing the sound, Wei Zhuoyan's eyes flashed: "Really? Which one, I'll see if I can help you—"

"It's just that he's not interested in me." Cutting off Wei Zhuoyan's enthusiastic hookup, Xiao Yi stared at him with a dark tone, "He tried every means to make me fall in love with a woman."

"..." Standing in front of Xiao Yi, Wei Zhuoyan was speechless.

"What do you think I should do?" Xiao Yi squinted his gaze, his gaze became colder and colder, and his voice was deliberately mechanical to the point of embarrassment, "How did you make him fall in love with me? Huh?"

Opening his eyes sideways, Wei Zhuoyan shook his head to himself, looking rather frustrated.

Xiao Yi didn't intend to say anything more that would poke the other person's nerves, so Xiao Yi also turned his head and stared at the passers-by on the street against the sky, as if the previous conversation had never started.

"Don't you even have the intention of trying?" Wei Zhuoyan rubbed his chin with his big hands, his fingertips were strong, "Try to understand women, try to get in touch with them more, try—"

"Have you ever tried to understand my mood?" Xiao Yi replied sharply, "You think that when I fall in love with a woman, one plus one equals two, but have you ever thought about my mood?" After a pause, Xiao Yi sneered , "It's hard for you to fall in love with a man, just like it's hard for me to fall in love with a woman. It's no easier than you."

"What's so difficult about falling in love with a woman?" Wei Zhuoyan couldn't help but sound annoyed, "Men are naturally supposed to love women!"

"..." The corners of Xiao Yi's lips became more mocking.

After one sentence fell, Wei Zhuoyan stopped in time.

He knew that the two of them would be quite unhappy if this went on, so he simply fell silent again.

After standing on the side of the road with Xiao Yi for an unknown amount of time, he said slowly and wearily, "Xiao Yi, I like women, do you understand?"

"So, the premise of your falling in love is a 'woman', isn't it?" Xiao Yi didn't look at him.

"..." Wei Zhuoyan closed his eyes.

Smiling lightly, Xiao Yi seemed to be facing the air, and said self-deprecatingly: "So if I were a woman—" Narrowing his eyes, he suddenly turned his head to look at Wei Zhuoyan, and paused every word, "What would you do?"

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yi would ask such a question, Wei Zhuoyan froze.

"Zhuo Yan." As if knowing that he had hit the bull's-eye, Xiao Yi turned sideways to face Wei Zhuoyan.

"There is no 'if'." Wei Zhuoyan glanced hastily at Xiao Yi, and Wei Zhuoyan turned around and started striding down the street.

"Let me ask you—" Following Wei Zhuoyan, Xiao Yilin said, "If I were a woman—"

"Listen to what you said yourself?" Wei Zhuoyan stared at him sideways, with sullen voice, "How could you be a woman? Ang?"

"If I were a woman, you—"

"This situation cannot exist, so don't assume." Frowning his eyebrows, Wei Zhuoyan's entire face looked very bored.

"Wei Zhuoyan."

"Xiao Yi."

The two men stopped at the same time.

Looking down at Xiao Yi who had a rather ugly face in front of him, Wei Zhuoyan said hoarsely, "Don't force me."

"..."

"I can understand your feelings, but—"

Just as he was about to explain, Wei Zhuoyan was surprised to see the man in the neat suit in front of him suddenly reach out and grab his arm, pulling him to walk quickly on the street.

"Xiao Yi?" The expression was awkward for a moment, Wei Zhuoyan's tall figure was staggered two steps by the opponent, and the anger that had been suppressed earlier rushed up, "What are you doing?"

"I accompanied you on a blind date, didn't I?" Without turning his head, Xiao Yi said calmly, "Don't you think you forgot that we still have a place to go?"

"..."
