Half a catty

When Wang Chengyi passed the security check, he received a message.

"Chengyi, help mom carry the bag." Wang Chengyi's mother was used to being the hands-off shopkeeper when she led him out, so this kind of "coolie" was fully entrusted to Wang Chengyi.

"Hey." Without raising his head, Wang Chengyi followed behind with his bag like a tail, staring at his mother's heels from the corner of his eye all the way, most of his attention was on his mobile phone.

From the security check to the lounge, until he stepped onto the bridge leading to the cabin, Chen Jiepei ended his long complaint.Wang Chengyi extracted the most important point from it, that there was a problem with Chen Jiepei's visa, and it was at the very moment when he was about to sign a contract with Xinghuan. Not only that, but Chen Jiepei arrived one day later, which meant that the whole process had to be postponed by one day , which is obviously not good news.

The first thing Wang Chengyi thought of was He Yue.

He recalled that He Yue's reply to messages these days was very slow, and he often disappeared after chatting with others. He must have been too busy.Wang Chengyi hesitated for a while, but still didn't call He Yue.

Naturally, he didn't expect to be picked up from He Yue.

When Wang Chengyi came to the company, he was in a hurry. As soon as he entered the lobby, he ran into Assistant Li who was also walking in.When Wang Chengyi saw her, he asked politely: "Have you had lunch yet?"

Although it's past lunch break now.

Assistant Li shook his head and said, "I've eaten earlier, I'll go out and help Mr. He buy something."

"what?"

After entering the elevator, Assistant Li supported his waist with one hand, looking tired, and took out a few neatly packed packs of cigarettes with the other hand: "That's it, I went to two places to buy soft packs."

Wang Chengyi didn't say anything else, and followed Assistant Li all the way to the door of He Yue's office. When Assistant Li was about to knock on the door, he grabbed the cigarette in Assistant Li's hand with one hand, turned his face and asked her, "Mr. He is inside?"

Assistant Li nodded, and then saw that Wang Chengyi didn't knock on the door, and just pushed the door open.

For a moment, Wang Chengyi narrowed his eyes slightly, and a puff of second-hand smoke that had been stuffy for a long time rushed towards his face. When he looked in again, his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of white gauze, and the whole room was filled with smoke.

The figure lying on the sofa is very conspicuous, with two legs crossed on the armrest, and the head resting on the other side, making an apparently very spacious sofa cramped.

The open door allows the air in the room to flow, and as the door is closed again, such a cool breeze is also cut off.

Assistant Li stared at the door panel only a few inches away from the tip of his nose, hesitated for a while, then stepped back and walked away.

The thick blackout curtain was slowly opened, and the rail bearings rubbed against each other to make a subtle and long-lasting noise. This noise penetrated into He Yue's ears, and pulled He Yue back who had just touched his fingertips with Sleeping Dream.

Frowning, He Yue narrowed his eyes and looked towards the window, and saw a figure standing in front of the window, which was very abstractly modified by the light.His eyes hurt from being stabbed, so he closed them again.

"I just fell asleep..." He Yue groaned.Yin, raised his arms to cover his eyes, thinking it was Assistant Li who came in, so he asked, "Did you buy the cigarettes?"

"Bought it."

He Yue was startled when he heard this voice, put down his hands, and saw Wang Chengyi standing beside the sofa, bending down to put a few packs of cigarettes on the coffee table in front of him.

"You're back, how are you? Did you have fun this trip?" He Yue wanted to get up, but just raised his head unexpectedly, there was a "hiss", his face wrinkled together, and he clutched his neck in pain .

Seeing that it was a stiff neck, Wang Chengyi helped He Yue up, then kneaded and relaxed the muscles on both sides of the back of his neck for him, and said sarcastic words: "I won't sleep on a good bed, come sleep on the sofa."

"I just lay down and didn't expect to fall asleep."

The force of Wang Chengyi's massage was moderate. At first, He Yue was so painful that he burst into tears. He gradually got used to it. He Yue moved his head from side to side. Although he could still hear the sound of cervical vertebrae rubbing, he felt much more comfortable.

He Yue picked up the cigarette case conveniently, and paused when he was about to tear off the plastic wrapping. He thought that he had never seen Wang Chengyi smoking, presumably he did not have the habit of smoking.Now the smell of cigarettes in the office is obviously beyond the standard, even He Yue can smell it, which makes him give up the idea of ​​getting another cigarette.

Wang Chengyi saw it, and stroked He Yue's hair that was out of shape at the back of his head with satisfaction: "I'll get you a glass of water."

"Thank you."

Wang Chengyi who walked to the door suddenly turned around and comforted: "It's actually nothing, you don't need to worry too much."

Wang Chengyi, who went to the tea room without waiting for He Yue's answer, missed He Yue's puzzled expression.

"...He knows what I'm bothered about?"

He Yue's eyes slowly emptied, and the conversation between him and Su Qiming resurfaced in his mind.

He urged Su Qiming's stagnant progress like clocking in at work every day, but this time Su Qiming brought him a little extra news.

"She said she missed her boyfriend."

When He Yue heard this, his expression was not very good-looking.After this incident, it is impossible for him not to have a prejudice against this woman, and now she says she misses Qi Si, such capriciousness is exactly what He Yue disdains.

"Listen to me first." Su Qiming then repeated her words: "She said that after she knew her boyfriend was gay, what she felt was not resentment or anything, but a sense of powerlessness. Facing him being intimate with other men If you take a photo together with the other party and swear every detail of their relationship with the other party, that person can know everything about Qi Si's past experiences, what he likes to eat, what books he likes to read, and even what subjects Qi Si studied in school."

"When that person mentioned the condom that Keith used to use, she completely collapsed and fell into self-denial. She had to admit that the more desperate news than her boyfriend cheating was that his cheating partner was a man. So she chose Breaking away from that environment and changing to a completely different place is just like traveling and relaxing, hoping to forget Qi Si early, but it turns out that she can't forget."

He Yue was silent for a few seconds, then asked coldly, "What do you mean?"

"I mean, since she also wants to get back together with Qi Si, what's the matter with you being dragged in the middle..." Su Qiming added in a low voice: "What's the difference between you and that person now."

"Of course I'm different from him—" He Yue's rebuttal stopped abruptly, because he couldn't deny that his current behavior was the same as that person's, and there was no difference in essence.

"I just want those who have done wrong to be punished." He Yue has already approached sophistry.

"It's not necessary." Su Qiming rarely spoke in general terms: "Since Qi Si has said that he doesn't want you to embarrass that person, there must be his reasons. Don't forget how much that person helped Qi Si. In the end, it made Qi Si difficult to be a human being."

These words awakened He Yue. His "fighting against injustice" was not for his own selfish desires, but the result was putting the cart before the horse and ignoring the appeal of Qi Si, the client.

"I'll think about it again." He Yue said.

Afterwards, he really kept thinking about it, as he lit and burned the cigarettes one by one, he didn't think of a reason.

Now, looking at the cigarette case he was playing with in his hand, he couldn't help but want to light another one.However, just as He Yue was about to unpack the package, a hand reached down from his head, took away the cigarette, and put another glass of water in his hand to fill the gap.

The ceramics were warmed by the water, even a little hot, and it gave him a jolt, and He Yue couldn't help but raise his head.

Wang Chengyi looked at He Yue's eyes looking up at him, and could see a little helplessness from them. Wang Chengyi was startled for a second, surprised by He Yue's fragile emotions. A kiss on the lips smelling of tobacco: "Isn't it Chen Jiepei who can't report on time, leave it to me, don't smoke like this again, it's not good for your health."

At this moment, He Yue suddenly realized.

Whether he tried his best to avoid Qis in the past, or he subconsciously blocked Qis from contacting his girlfriend now, he was actually avoiding the question that Qis would end up with a woman.

He hasn't been able to let go of it for so many years, but the woman who can go down with Qi Si has probably appeared. What's the point of carrying it by himself?

After all, he also has a wonderful lover.

The ashtray overflowed with cigarette butts told He Yue how irritable he was, but at this moment, He Yue suddenly couldn't remember the feeling of being addicted to cigarettes.

"Oh, that's what you're talking about." He Yue relaxed his tone, took a sip of water, and put the cup aside.

"Don't worry, I will help him get a visa as soon as possible." Wang Chengyi assured him.

He Yue suddenly laughed: "I figured it out, it's just a contract, just sign it in person, it doesn't matter where you sign it."

Wang Chengyi didn't follow He Yue's train of thought. When he thought about it, he seemed to understand He Yue's meaning. Wang Chengyi asked hesitantly, "You don't mean to..."

"What's that expression on your face?" He Yue straightened his face and coughed, "I'm a big boss, so I'm not qualified to hold a contract to discuss cooperation matters in person?"

Wang Chengyi was so happy, he threw He Yue into his arms regardless of his image.

"You want to go to Canada with me!" Wang Chengyi was very excited.

He Yue put his arms around Wang Chengyi's back, hugged him tightly, and said, "Well, go to Canada."
