Keeping up with the dry brother

Duan Zhe felt faintly disappointed.He raised his eyes and glanced at Qiao Yi. Seeing that the man was looking down at his phone again, he couldn't help knocking on the table, and became tough: "Hey, it's almost done. I'm apologizing and giving gifts, what else do you want?"

Qiao Yi woke up like a sleepy person. He took off his sunglasses, his eyes were a little dazed at first, but he regained consciousness soon: "Thank you for the gift."

Duan Zhe felt relieved, thinking about striking while the iron was hot: "Then when will you move back..."

Qiao Yi stood up.He held his coat in his arms.Duan Zhe was stunned, and he was already walking out, turning his head and saying, "I've been out for too long, the director is in a hurry. Today's scene is very important, what else do you have to do later? .”

"Hey, no..." Duan Zhe called him hastily, but Qiao Yi was in a hurry, without turning his head, and disappeared around the corner after a while.

"I, this..." Duan Zhe was completely dumbfounded.

What made him even more dumbfounded was that Qiao Yi made a plane and flew abroad that night.

Duan Zhe received a text message while driving. The smog was extremely severe that day. He just glanced at the cell phone that had been turned on for a moment on the co-pilot, and then focused his attention on the white road in front of him.

Qiao Yi sat in the waiting room, surrounded by layers of fans.He chatted casually with fans.A little girl in the front row saw that he was holding a mobile phone, glanced at it from time to time, and asked boldly: "Brother, who are you waiting for?"

Qiao Yi smiled: "No one."

Duan Zhe's reply never came, he simply put away his phone, picked up his luggage and his assistants and boarded the plane.

Duan Zhe couldn't get through the phone when he saw the text message, and couldn't find anyone, so he went directly to Li Xinling's.

Li Xinling opened the door, and when she saw Duan Zhe who was sweating profusely, she was a little surprised: "Xiao Duan? What's the matter?"

Duan Zhe was inexplicably timid at the moment, he hesitated, and asked, "Is Qiao Yi here?"

"He's not here." Knowing that Duan Zhe came to find Qiao Yi, Li Xinling smiled, and she said, "Qiao Yi's plane tonight, he's going abroad to shoot commercials, and he's going to go for two weeks. Do you have anything to do with him?"

Only then did Duan Zhe understand what "don't need to look for me for a while" means.

Li Xinling looked at Duan Zhe's dazed look, unable to figure out what happened, and tentatively called him, "Xiao Duan? Xiao Duan! What's wrong with you?"

Duan Zhe came back to his senses, his eyes swept over the woman's face that looked like Qiao Yi.

"Uh...it's nothing." He turned around and murmured, "I'm leaving first, Aunt Li."

Li Xinling looked at his back, and suddenly stopped him: "Xiao Duan!"

Duan Zhe turned around in a daze.

Li Xinling smiled: "Originally, Qiao Yi was supposed to leave at night, but who knew it was ahead of schedule, and no one ate the whole table I prepared. If you haven't eaten yet, you can eat with me."

Duan Zhe drank the soft, glutinous and fragrant millet porridge and remained silent.After Li Xinling came to Beijing, this was the first time that Qiao Yi traveled far on a business trip, so the table was full of Qiao Yi's favorite dishes.

Li Xinling was a little embarrassed: "Hurry up and eat, you can see which one you like to eat, just eat it."

"Aunt Li, you can eat too."

Duan Zhe couldn't open his mouth to eat like last time, he felt depressed, and his eating speed slowed down.There is a spoonful of porridge, and I don't know where my mind is wandering.

Suddenly, Li Xinling's hesitant voice rang in his ears: "Xiao Duan, do you have any unpleasantness with Qiao Yi?"

"Ah?" Duan Zhe couldn't figure it out, raised his head, met Li Xinling's eyes, and hurriedly said, "Aunt Li, how is this possible!"

"Then you come to him today..."

Duan Zhe said: "It's just a matter..." He was quick to think: "Last time when he said he wanted to buy a house, I advised him a few times. The one he likes is going to be pre-sold, so I'll tell him One sound."

Li Xinling nodded in doubt.

Duan Zhe didn't dare to be absent-minded, and then kept looking for something to talk to, chatting with Li Xinling, for fear that she would think too much.When the meal was almost finished, Li Xinling suddenly put down her chopsticks.

Duan Zhe paused.Li Xinling sighed: "Qiao Yi, this kid, something has happened recently, he's out of his mind."

Duan Zhe felt his throat dry and itchy, he gently put down his chopsticks, he didn't know what to say, so he could only murmur "um".

"Before, he suddenly came back with his luggage and said that the rented house near the company was leaking. But he looked unhappy, so I didn't dare to ask more." Li Xinling suddenly looked at Duan Zhe intently, Duan Zhe thought Shocked, Li Xinling said: "Xiao Duan, you and Qiao Yi got close in private, do you think he is in a relationship?"

"Ah?! I...I don't know." Duan Zhe's palms were full of sweat.

"Well, being a parent is always very sensitive. I can definitely guess what he was unhappy in the past." Li Xinling was thoughtful: "I see his recent appearance, it looks like he has lost love... ..."

Duan Zhe cleared his throat and said, "I haven't heard of it..."

"You haven't heard? That's fine." Li Xinling was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled, tucked a few strands of hair behind her ears, and said, "That's why I guessed wrong. I'm sorry to make you laugh."

Duan Zhe forced a smile.After a while, Li Xinling got up and went to tidy up the kitchen.His gaze was complicated, from Li Xinling's back to the ground, and then to the meticulously decorated kitchen.

A light yellow sheet on the refrigerator caught his attention with a small sticker.

Duan Zhe got up and went over, leaning closer to read the words on it.

The practice of pineapple shrimp balls

Salt, starch, flour...

Split the shrimp...

A trembling feeling came to his heart, and Duan Zhe's blood was almost boiling at this moment, he could hear his heartbeat speeding up suddenly, beating like a drum.

Li Xinling went back to the dining table again and saw Duan Zhe standing in front of the refrigerator with her back facing her motionless. She saw the note over Duan Zhe's shoulder and said casually, "Qiao Yi suddenly wanted to learn how to cook before. How to make seafood. I wonder, he doesn’t like to eat shrimp, who is he learning this to cook for..."

The daytime in Beijing is the late night in Paris.

The moment the lighting engineer turned off the light, Qiao Yi tiredly closed his eyes.The pain in my head seemed to be densely packed with needles, and my appetite was lost due to jet lag.

The director was communicating with the translator, and the agent carefully came over with a coat and put it on for him.

Qiao Yi never opened his eyes again, he sat on the chair like a stone statue carved from jade.The director was very obsessed with his deserted oriental style, and stared at Qiao Yi's face behind the camera and said "amazing" many times.

Qiao Yi didn't open his eyes until it was time to touch up his makeup, and the degree to which his eyelids were lifted showed his fatigue.He whispered, "Give me some hot coffee."

When the agent entered the set, he greeted the director, walked quickly across the set to Qiao Yi, and whispered in his ear: "Mr. Duan called and asked you the specific time to return to China."

A gleam of clarity flashed across Qiao Yi's eyes, and it quickly disappeared.Rao is so, it seems to be a lot easier on the body.

Someone beside him laughed softly.

Not long after Qiao Yi left, Commander Duan once again led the team on a southern tour.Duan Xi started school early, and before Chen Yi felt that the family was too deserted, Duan Zhe had already sent Li Xinling there.Not only that, he sent someone to pick up Li Xinling back and forth, which made her very embarrassed.

Duan Zhe has never cared about Chen Yi's spare time, but recently he has been uncharacteristically.

I don't know how many times he called home and asked Chen Yi if he wanted to go to Mohai Park with Li Xinling, and Chen vaguely agreed.

Putting down the phone, she worriedly said to Li Xinling who was wearing a sweater, "Xiao Zhi, why do I feel that something is wrong with my son recently?"

Li Xinling looked at her through the reading glasses: "Isn't Xiaoduan very good? I always encourage you to go out and play, I think of you more."

"But..." Chen Yi struggled for a while: "He was not like this before, and he always felt that something was weird. Tell me, did something happen to him and he wanted to please me?"

"Not necessarily. But when you talk about it..." Li Xinling stopped what she was doing, and said, "Oh, Qiao Yi is abroad, so I don't know what's going on... ..”

The two mothers were inexplicably sad in the room.

Here, Duan Zhe put down his phone, leaned his long legs on the table, tapped the keyboard a few times, and Qiao Yi's face suddenly popped up on the web page.

In the black and white photo, Qiao Yi maintains a cold aura around him, looking innocently at the people outside the screen.

Duan Zhe rubbed his chin, Qiao Yi's words from a long time ago suddenly echoed in his mind: "Why do I like you?"

After an unknown amount of time, Duan Zhe said to himself uncertainly, "You... like me?"
