"Bai Xiao."

"Bai Xiao."

"—— Bai Xiao!"

The hot oil in the pot was tumbling, the hot air waves burned the skin, and the loud noise of the exhaust fan seemed to burst the eardrums.Bai Xiao put the meat slices into the wok, stir-fried them and put them on a plate. Then he saw the boss standing by the door with a straight face, and shouted: "Bai Xiao, answer when you hear it."

Bai Xiao glanced past the boss in a neither cold nor indifferent way, and lowered his eyes and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Someone is looking for it." The boss turned sideways, and complained in a low voice, "What the hell, he has good cooking skills, the ability to show face to rich people, what kind of prestige, if it wasn't for the low salary, I would have already I resigned from you."

His voice was not low, and Bai Xiao probably heard it, but he just stared at the man next to the boss blankly, the indifferent emotion on the corners of his lips cracked for a moment, but it was fleeting, and he turned his head away with a hint of disdain.

——Suit and leather shoes, heroic.It looks like a dog.

Zhang Ming stared blankly at Bai Xiao, with unconcealable excitement and excitement in his eyes, he rubbed his fingers a little awkwardly, and was about to have a long-lost reunion hug, when he caught a glimpse of the strong irony in Bai Xiao's eyes, his mood fell instantly In the ice cave, my feet were so heavy that I couldn't take half a step forward.

The boss patted him on the shoulder sympathetically, "Bo Xiao is always like this, his heart is higher than the sky, it's a pity..."

It's a pity that I'm not a little cook who looks at other people's faces - he didn't say it, but Bai Xiao knew it in his heart, he smiled slightly, and the indifferent chill on his face became more terrifying.

Zhang Ming glared at the boss fiercely, and then Ai Ai shouted, "Ah Xiao..."

"Hey--" His voice was covered by the mixed noise of hot oil and chili, and Bai Xiao skillfully stir-fried and put the plate on the plate, and then put the plate on the window in charge of serving the dishes.

Zhang Ming's heart seemed to be grabbed by his hands. He stared at Bai Xiao's beautiful side face. The exquisite and graceful outline of the other side seemed to be perfectly shaped, except that the edges and corners were cold, and there was no warmth at all.

The boss turned around and left, the original lackluster interest was wiped out, and he didn't expect to see a good show.

Taking advantage of Bai Xiao's spare time and being unable to make noise, Zhang Ming affectionately circled around him to brainwash him.

"Ah Xiao, I finally found you."

"..."

"I...I just miss you so much..."

"..."

"Why did you quit the entertainment industry? I remember you hated cooking, why did you choose to be a chef? Ah, I mean the chef is pretty good too, I just didn't expect you to..."

"Have you finished?" Bai Xiao interrupted him coldly, "Go out and turn left and go forward 30 meters."

"what?"

"Mental hospital."

Zhang Ming choked, stopped Bai Xiao when he realized it, and explained nervously: "A Xiao, I know you still blame me, but I never lied to you. I was sincere to you at that time, and then... then I... "

Bai Xiao's eyes turned cold, he took two steps forward, and quickly reached out to cover Zhang Ming's mouth and nose tightly. One second, Zhang Ming was ecstatic for Bai Xiao's closeness, and the next second his face was burning The pain was tormenting.

He grabbed Bai Xiao's hand, and rushed to the water's edge after seeing the other person's hands full of chili peppers, but this was of no avail, the chili peppers had already penetrated into it, and washing his face not only failed to relieve it, but stimulated the burning sensation even more intensely, and his whole face was like Like being set on fire.

Bai Xiao approached quietly, lowered his voice, and said in a cold and fierce tone: "—Get out!"

Zhang Ming is gone.

His face is the capital for clinging to the Yuan family, so he can't just be disfigured like this, otherwise the proud daughter of the Yuan family might be able to regret the marriage. Before he escaped from the kitchen, he turned to look at Bai Xiao with a particularly hurt expression, But he found that the man was cutting the ingredients with his head down, his face full of indifference and indifference.

Bai Xiao changed.

He is no longer the ignorant young man Zhang Ming met back then. At that time, Bai Xiao was full of ambitions. He had ideals and hopes. Now he can't see the slightest trace of the past on Bai Xiao, he has washed away all the childishness, and the old Bai Xiao has probably been completely killed.

Zhang Ming knew well that he killed the former Bai Xiao with his own hands, but he couldn't admit that he hid the truth very well. He firmly believed that Bai Xiao didn't know the culprit. As for him——

He still misses Bai Xiao's kindness, even if he can't become a lover, he doesn't want to lose this confidant.

Bai Xiao chopped the meat with a sullen face, and the blade collided with the chopping board to make a harsh sound.He didn't expect that Zhang Ming would dare to show up, and acted as if nothing had happened back then. Fuck, he came here to be a good boy after getting a bargain, pretending to be so fucking disgusting.

His terrible mood lasted until the evening, when a child's clear and familiar cry came from outside the restaurant, Bai Xiaolian washed his hands, took off his apron and walked out of the kitchen, modestly carrying a small schoolbag, humming a song and bouncing into the restaurant , he has fair skin, double eyelids, and eyes like lacquer, and his bangs make his face particularly delicate and lovely.

The boss instinctively followed the prestige, and immediately rolled his eyes with a smile, "Qianqian is out of school."

Qianqian said obediently: "Well, hello, Uncle."

The boss nodded hesitantly, his heart melted with cuteness, and he even took out one from a drawer full of lollipops, "Qianqian, here, take it and eat it."

Qianqian took it over, with an even more charming smile, "Thank you uncle—Dad!" He ran towards Bai Xiao immediately.

Bai Xiao squatted down, took off Qianqian's schoolbag, and asked softly, "Did the teacher assign homework?"

"The teacher asked us to draw Dad."

"Can you draw?"

"Can Dad teach me?"

Bai Xiao touched Qianqian's head and said with a smile: "Okay, but Dad still has to work, so why don't you play by yourself first?"

Nodding modestly: "Okay, I'll wait for Dad." As he spoke, he sneaked closer to Bai Xiao, kissed him on the cheek, and danced with excitement after succeeding.

Bai Xiao had no choice but to indulge Qianqian's sneak attack almost like pampering him, and he was not stingy with his pampering smile.

The boss poked his head out from behind the computer, rubbed his nose and exclaimed: "Bai Xiao looks so damn good when he smiles, he looks like a big star, my dear, if this can be placed in the store, it will be like a golden signboard..." Thinking He shook his head again, "Forget it, he never smiled at anyone except Qianqian."

After get off work, the streets and alleys were already brightly lit. After a simple cleaning, Bai Xiao left with the sleeping Qianqian in his arms. He couldn't hide his tiredness in his eyes, but when he looked down at Qianqian, all the tiredness faded away.

"Bai Xiao." The boss called him from behind.

Bai Xiao turned his head in silence, his eyes were hidden in the shadows, and he couldn't see the emotion in his eyes clearly.

"Young people should not give up their ideals easily, even if it is for modesty."

"ideal?"

"You look so calm every day, maybe it's because you hate this job. I can see that you are a person with big ideals. People will inevitably encounter some setbacks. Just get back up after falling."

Bai Xiao was silent, and said in a low voice for a while: "You think too much, I'm just tired."

The boss shook his head, "Aren't you tired of knowing that you didn't dare to fight hard when you were young, so don't wait until you are old to regret it."

"……I first got off work."

"You... well, let's go."

Bai Xiao lived in a rented room not far from the hotel, and the night was silent. He walked through the alley with Qianqian in his arms, but his mood was far from as calm as it appeared on the surface. He thought to himself, do he really still have ideals?He already knew that place was dirty and ugly, so he threw himself into it at the beginning, why is he tired of it now?

Too tired to even hear half a word of news.

The downstairs light was broken, and the distant light cast a peripheral light, a figure suddenly got up, and rushed to Bai Xiao in a few steps.

Zhang Ming loosened his tie, he looked at Bai Xiao nervously, his face full of weariness, and then looked at Qianqian in Bai Xiao's arms in amazement, he had a bad feeling in his heart, and said in a hoarse voice, "Who is he?"

Bai Xiao frowned, "Didn't I tell you to get lost?"

"A Xiao..."

"Get lost!" Bai Xiao roared, "What are you? Are you trying to suppress me with power now? Don't forget the scandalous things you did back then. I didn't ruin your reputation and I've shown mercy. You still think I'm a bully. I can let you knead and slaughter."

Zhang Ming grabbed Bai Xiao's hand anxiously, "You know I didn't mean that. You helped me back then, so I couldn't even come to see you? I want to know if you are doing well and if you need my help. Why do you think so radically?"

Bai Xiao stared at Zhang Ming with a face full of sarcasm, his gaze seemed to pierce through his disguise, seeing through the darkness covering the other's heart.

"Ah Xiao, who is he?"

"my son."

Zhang Ming was a little hurt, hesitantly said: "Are you married?"

"Yes."

"Where's his mother?"

"died."

"..."

"..."

Bai Xiao went upstairs with Qianqian in his arms, and Zhang Ming followed behind him step by step. He couldn't explain the sense of loss in his heart. The moment Bai Xiao said he was getting married, he suddenly felt a hole in his heart, and the cold wind was blowing in. .

After taking the key to open the door, Zhang Ming was still standing outside, holding the door with one hand, ignoring Bai Xiao's indifferent gaze, "A Xiao, come back to Kyoto with me."

"A man needs face, a tree needs bark."

"I can make you an international superstar, isn't this your dream?"

Bai Xiao's gaze narrowed, and he forced his hands to close the door with a cold face. After receiving resistance, he kicked the door fiercely. A loud "bang" sound woke up Qianqian. He rubbed his eyes and poked his head out of Bai Xiao's arms, just in time to meet Zhang Ming's eyes met. Although he was young, he could feel Zhang Ming's inexplicable hostility. He couldn't help but lowered his head and grabbed Bai Xiao's arm, and said in a trembling voice, "Father, who is he?"

Bai Xiao whispered: "Bad guy." Seeing that Qianqian shrank his shoulders in fear, he even comforted him, "Don't be afraid, Dad will protect you."

Qianqian was still a little nervous.

Bai Xiao carried Qianqian into the room, and softly comforted him by the bed for a while, and then got up and left after the child fell asleep, and closed the door firmly.

Zhang Ming was already uninvited. He stared at the father and son photos hanging all over the wall, then turned his head and gave Bai Xiao a bleak smile, "A Xiao, I'm getting married."

Bai Xiao was unmoved.

"Can you come to my wedding?" Zhang Ming paused for a few seconds and said seriously, "You are the only person I want to invite."

Bai Xiao made a move directly. He punched Zhang Ming hard on the face, grabbed the other man by his collar and threw him out of the room. His knuckles clung to the edge of the door tightly, and his white joints seemed to break free from the last layer of skin.

"Zhang Ming, you are a fucking beast! Get out! I feel disgusted when I see you, you better pray that you don't run into me again, or I will chop you up and feed it to the dogs!"

Zhang Ming was full of astonishment, he grabbed the railing in embarrassment, and when he wanted to say something again, the door in front of him was mercilessly closed.

The darkness engulfed the lights for an instant.

Bai Xiao leaned his back against the door, looking sideways at the deep night wearily, he thought that if some people called him a beast, they might be praising him instead, after all what he had done was worse than a beast.

Bai Xiao decided to take a shower first, he gently pushed open the bedroom door, and took a pajamas from the closet.

The light in the bathroom was broken a long time ago, and he has never taken time to fix it. He has been using the light in the kitchen for the past few days. Bai Xiao rubbed his brows tiredly, but just as he entered the bathroom, his feet slipped suddenly, and he leaned forward and slammed into the bathroom. On the ground, he panicked and tried to grab something, but his hand was empty.

In the next second, Bai Xiao's eyes suddenly went dark, and he completely lost consciousness.
