What to do if you are spotted by the straight man next door

But when I think about it carefully, there are reasons for Ellen to do so.

After all, it was stated in the oath between the two that Su Bin had to hand over all his decision-making power, so Ellen had the right to interfere even if he was making friends.

Therefore, William's question was inappropriate. Instead of asking Su Bin why he listened to Ellen's decision, it was better to ask Ellen why he even cared about making friends.

"What is your reason for not allowing you to make friends with me? He is worried that I will deceive you or bully you?" William's mood at the moment is like a poor student who learns that his little friend's mother does not allow him to play with him anymore Same, very depressing.

Su Bin shook his head. In fact, he was also a little confused.

He tried his best to recall what he said when he mentioned William to Ellen—"Hua Zhixin's boss is very temperamental, experienced, knowledgeable, and humorous. I met him during the day and invited me to drink coffee. , he already knew that I was 'Boss Su', and guessed that there was someone behind 'Boss Su', but I didn't reveal your identity... He gave me a lot of advice on restaurant management, and even asked me to go with you Check out Thai restaurants...”

After Su Bin happily finished speaking and handed over William's business card, Ellen tore up the small piece of paper with a livid face, and said decisively: "No association."

The other party's reaction was like pouring cold water on Su Bin's head, and even now Su Bin still feels cold...

Let's say that Ellen is "jealous". Su Bin's face is not so big. After all, William has never done anything ambiguous that would make Su Bin misunderstand.

So what was it that made Ellen wary?Su Bin couldn't figure it out either.

The "something to talk about" that William said was of course not just asking Su Bin these Qiong Yao-style questions.

He helped Su Bin sort out the analysis materials of the previous restaurant address candidates, and he sent them here specially today, but after hearing what Su Bin said just now, he seemed a little disappointed.

Su Bin thanked him repeatedly, and felt very sorry in his heart: "William, thank you for doing so much, you are really a good person."

William, who was issued a "good person card", smiled wryly: "For me, these things are just a matter of effort. Michael, I don't want to get anything from you when I do this. New, overwhelmed as old', which means that although some people have known each other for a long time, they are like new acquaintances, and some people just met, but they seem to have known each other for a long time. To me, you are like old friends at first sight, But I didn't expect our friendship to stop here..."

Su Bin was put on such a high hat by William, so he didn't know the south, east, north and west all of a sudden.

After struggling for a moment, Su Bin said, "I'll talk to my brother when I go back." He still has a seat in his social quota. If William really treats him like this, Su Bin is willing to become a heart-to-heart friend with him.

William's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Can I meet your 'brother' in person? He has never met me, and he doesn't know what kind of person I am. If we meet and communicate, maybe he will change his mind about me. "

Su Bin made sense after thinking about it, and decided to go back and have a good talk with Ellen, not only about William, but also Ellen's ever-expanding "jurisdiction".

If he wanted to talk about "William" with Ellen, he would have to confess that he secretly went to the appointment.

It was a rare time to lie to the sky, to reveal himself so soon, and not know what the end would be. Su Bin thought about it, and he was quite worthy of William.

But he didn't expect that things went wrong before he had the chance to confess his mistake!

That night, Su Bin cooked a sumptuous dinner by himself, thinking about taking a bath with Ellen later, squeezing his shoulders and legs, serving Ellen first, and pleading guilty later, trying to get the punishment intensity is reduced to a minimum.

As a result, at the dinner table, Qi Xin revealed Su Bin's deception...

It was because Yang Chengzhe asked Qi Xin if he had played games recently. Qi Xin said that he felt a little boring and hadn't played for a long time, so Ellen asked casually, didn't you play with Su Bin a few days ago.

Su Bin, who had a guilty conscience, immediately "thumped" in his heart. He almost forgot Ellen's incredible memory, not to mention what happened two weeks ago, even two years ago, he could still remember it!If he really confronts Qi Xin, is there any way for him to survive?

So he tried his best to wink at Qi Xin, hoping that the other party could cover up for him a little first, but Qi Xin, this idiot, couldn't understand, and said stupidly: "What do you think I am doing?"

Su Bin: "..."—Cao, what kind of grudges do I have against you! QAQ

...with a bad brain, no matter how handsome she is, it's useless!

Well, there is no need to ask anything now!Just seeing Su Bin's reaction, Ellen knew something was wrong!

After dinner, Su Bin went upstairs to "receive the punishment" with Ellen, who looked terrified.

Sitting on a chair, Ellen said in a gloomy voice, "Tell me, what did you do wrong?"

Su Bin's knees were so frightened that he almost knelt down...

Well, originally Su Bin wanted to admit it on his own initiative, but now it turned out that he couldn't hide it and was forced to confess. What a difference in the end!

Su Bin submissively told the cause of the incident and his own inner self-examination, and then said: "Actually, I planned to tell you today..."

"So, you saw William again today?" Ellen stared at Su Bin with no joy or anger on her face, but this made Su Bin feel uneasy.

Su Bin said: "I have already told him that you disagree, but William asked if he could see you."

Ellen raised her eyebrows: "He wants to see me?"

Su Bin: "Well, he thinks you might be prejudiced against him."

Ellen sneered, and asked Su Bin: "I don't care what he thinks, I just ask you, do you really want to make friends with him?"

Su Bin, who was still touched by William during the day, was a little hesitant at this moment. After all, William's unilateral feeling of "friendship at first sight" was William's unilateral feeling. Su Bin only thought that the other party was a good person, that's all.

Ellen asked again: "Is there anything about him that attracts you?"

Su Bin only remembered this person after he learned that the other party was the boss of "Hua Zhixin". When it comes to characteristics, he couldn't sum it up for a while.

But no matter what, Su Bin is also a normal person with emotions and desires. Although he was once insecure and desperate after experiencing "abandoned by his ex-girlfriend, betrayed by friends, and ignored by his father", now, in love Under the care of Lun, he has gradually recovered.

With a strong backing and umbrella, Su Bin is still curious about the outside world.

In other words, he was afraid of repeating the same mistakes, because of the sequelae of the last relationship, he used to rely too much on one person, put all his mind and energy on that person, and ended up with nothing...

So now, even if he fell in love with Ellen, he didn't dare to put all his eggs in one basket.

What's more, it's uncertain how long Ellen can live. If he leaves one day, and he is left alone without many friends by his side, how lonely it would be!

Su Bin still hopes that he can make more friends, and that his life will become lively and lively, instead of calm and peaceful.

Ellen pulled him closer and wrapped his arms around his waist. Su Bin was in a daze for a moment. Isn't Ellen angry?

Unaware of the other party's anger, Su Bin plucked up the courage to express his doubts: "Ellen, why do you even care about the friends I make? You told me to put an end to useless social interactions. I took it to heart. As for the other decisions, I think I can do it myself."

Ellen shook her head and said: "You are too easily influenced by others. Other people's words, deeds, and emotions can affect your decision anytime and anywhere. You are like a small boat swaying with the wind in the sea. If no one steers you, You'll be knocked bloody by the rocks along the way."

He frowned, and reached out to caress Su Bin's forehead, as if he had seen the marks of injury on it.

Su Bin was very moved by Ellen's words, but he didn't want to.

He doesn't want to be protected by Ellen like a little chick. He is a man, and he also wants to be strong, want to have his own career, and be able to protect Ellen in the future, or in other words, he hopes to be better. Good enough to be worthy of Ellen.

I thought this way in my heart, but what I said was—"But I don't think it's free."

Ellen squeezed Su Bin's chin, and said in a low voice, "Everything about you belongs to me, and there is no freedom at all."

Su Bin choked: "But we didn't start like this."

Ellen: "At first?"

Su Bin: "When I first came to City M from City D, I was about to open a restaurant. I felt that you were not as strict as you are now."

Ellen sneered: "I remember I said that making friends is the privilege I give you."

Su Bin was stunned: "Have you taken back the privilege now? Did I do something wrong?"

Ellen: "No, you did a good job before that, and I didn't limit your contacts with your original friends, but I have the right to decide whether you can make new friends... In fact, what you called 'at the beginning' The relative freedom is just a transition period I gave you, and now is the normal way we get along, maybe, I will take care of it more...Why, you can't accept it now?"

Su Bin shook his head instinctively, fearing that if he said "I can't accept it", Ellen would be even more angry.But he admitted that he was intimidated by Ellen's words.

Because of "deception", Ellen still had a debt to settle with Su Bin, but he was not in a hurry, and he didn't punish Su Bin too much this night, and even agreed to William's proposal to meet.

Ellen is not free these days, so Su Bin told William to meet at a weekend at a bar that Su Bin had never heard of.

Su Bin's heart was very heavy. The later Ellen broke out, the more uneasy he became. For some reason, he was also a little worried for William, always feeling like a storm was coming.
