Let go of the past

Li Ziqing looked at Bai Lisheng in a daze, then looked away after a while, and said insincerely: "There is jet lag over there, and you are busy with work..."

"Are you busy with work, or are you busy with your future husband and mother-in-law?"

Li Ziqing took a deep breath, looked at him again, and tried to make his tone sound calm: "Xiaobai, can we talk about something else? If you keep doing this, I will almost not know you."

Bai Lisheng squinted his eyes and looked at him for a while, then suddenly sneered, and said, "Who told you that the one you knew before was the real me?" Such an aggressive expression appeared on his cool and handsome face , it seemed particularly inconsistent for a while.

Li Ziqing finally realized that the other party was really not making a joke with him that he thought was harmless among friends, but had a real intention, and his intention had almost been revealed.

"Xiaobai, as a friend, of course you can have many sides in front of me. I have no right to interfere. I am happy when you are happy. This is the best way for friends to get along, isn't it?"

While talking, the waiter pushed the dining trolley over to serve the dishes. The cups and plates collided and made a crisp sound. The two closed their mouths tacitly. Li Ziqing stared at the dishes that were served next. know where to place your gaze

"Let's eat first." After the waiter finished serving all the dishes and left, Bai Lisheng raised his chin, motioned Li Ziqing to move his chopsticks, traced his eyes around his face, and said, "You have lost too much weight recently."

Li Ziqing was also not cautious. After all, Bai Lisheng was not an outsider who needed to be treated politely. He picked up a spoon to scoop up a piece of crabmeat tofu, put it in his mouth, tasted it, and praised with a smile: "It tastes really good."

Bai Lisheng smiled back, picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip and put it down, watching Li Ziqing eat with gusto, but he never moved his chopsticks.

Li Ziqing looked up at him suspiciously: "?"

"Recently, I'm trying to control my body shape. Isn't there a concert coming soon?" Bai Lisheng explained consciously.

"That's too hard." Li Ziqing's eyes widened in disbelief, "Besides, it's only noon, so you only eat one meal a day?"

Bai Lisheng glanced at his right cheek, with an uncontrollable smile on his face, then pointed to his cheek on the same side, took out a tissue and handed it to him.

Li Ziqing was stunned for a moment before realizing that the sauce was on his face, so he took the tissue and wiped his face in embarrassment, and then heard Bai Lisheng say: "Just don't eat these dishes, the calories are too high .”

Hearing this, Li Ziqing blurted out almost unconsciously: "Ji Bing often goes back to work overtime at night and asks me to cook supper for him. The oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar are very strong, and I haven't seen any gain in weight. You are too cautious. gone."

The air froze for a few seconds. After Li Ziqing finished speaking, his expression was a little embarrassed. The smile on Bai Lisheng's face faded, he paused, and said in a stiff tone, "...Who knows if he has been sweating profusely in the gym behind your back?"

Li Ziqing chuckled twice, just wanting to get the topic out of the way quickly. Naturally, Bai Lisheng didn't want to chat with Li Ziqing about Ji Bing, and the two of them were silent for a few seconds, and then heard Li Ziqing hesitantly ask: "What are you talking about?" I really don’t want to eat it? I can’t finish this big table by myself..."

Bai Lisheng shook his head, but suddenly remembered something, picked up the chopsticks in one hand, and held up the mobile phone in the other, smiled at Li Ziqing: "Let's take a photo together, I'll post a Weibo to warm up the concert."

Li Ziqing waved his hands again and again: "Please forgive me, I don't want to be chased and beaten by your fans."

"Don't worry." Bai Lisheng was persuasive, with a sincere expression: "I will cover your face when the time comes."

Li Ziqing looked at him suspiciously. Seeing this, Bai Lisheng said directly: "Then use your mobile phone to take a picture, cover your face with the photo tool after taking the picture, and then send it to me."

"..." Li Ziqing was in a dilemma: "But I don't have a photo tool on my phone."

"That still needs to be taken with my mobile phone." Bai Lisheng took it naturally, then turned sideways to position the poss, and greeted Li Ziqing, "Come closer."

He always felt that something was wrong, but Bai Lisheng had already set up his posture, so he had no choice but to lean forward and adjust his expression to the camera.

"Smile."

Li Ziqing raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"Brilliant."

Li Ziqing had no choice but to open his mouth a little.

"Make it brighter."

Li Ziqing couldn't help turning his head to look at Bai Lisheng and said, "It's alright—"

At this moment, Bai Lisheng quickly picked up a glutinous rice ball on the plate in front of him, and stuffed it into Li Ziqing's mouth unexpectedly. When his eyes widened in shock, he clicked the shutter button and took a perfect picture. .

Li Ziqing spat out the balls in his mouth onto a tissue, and looked at Bai Lisheng with displeasure: "Xiaobai, are you playing with me?"

Bai Lisheng put away his phone and promised earnestly, "I won't send random messages."

Li Ziqing sighed and waved his hands: "Alright, I won't quarrel with you because of a photo."

After he finished speaking, he picked up his teacup and took a sip. Faced with a large table of dishes, he suddenly felt that he couldn't eat, so he put down his cup and said to Bai Lisheng, "I'm done eating, let's go."

Bai Lisheng looked at him in surprise: "Are you full after just a few bites?"

"Didn't you still not eat a bite?" Li Ziqing felt uncomfortable and couldn't directly blame him, but his attitude inevitably became a little alienated, "I have something to do in the afternoon, let's go."

Bai Lisheng didn't move, he looked fixedly at Li Ziqing who stood up, and asked, "Are you angry?"

Li Ziqing shook his head, Bai Lisheng's eyes dimmed, and he said after a while, "What if it's Ji Bing? Would you be angry if he did this?"

Li Ziqing stopped his moving body, turned his head and looked a little cold, "Why do you have to compare with Ji Bing?" He said, "You know very well that you are different from him."

"In my place, no one is the same as him, understand? Bai Lisheng."

At around seven o'clock in the morning, Li Ziqing usually wakes up from the huge double bed alone, and Ji Bing is not around, so he doesn't have to bother getting up early to prepare breakfast, so he becomes decadent and lazy.In the past, the biological clock that would wake up on time at six o'clock inevitably began to become disordered. I had to wait until after seven o'clock to be woken up by the alarm clock, and then struggled to wake up from sleep with a muddy and chaotic head.

After waking up, he lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling for a while, his consciousness was still wandering in the cloud. After his consciousness slowly returned, he suddenly sighed heavily, and then turned over and got up from the bed.

Opening the bedroom door, Li Ziqing walked slowly towards the bathroom, passing the living room, the sun was shining in through the thick curtains, and the half-eaten dinner from last night was still on the dining table not far away.

Li Ziqing walked to the sink, turned on the faucet and wiped his face. The young man in the mirror had thin cheeks and heavy dark circles under his eyes. The once soft baby face had finally grown into a sharp-edged appearance after years of polishing. Things that belonged to the past were quietly passing away from his life.

Yesterday's unhappiness with Bai Lisheng made him feel a little depressed. Bai Lisheng was one of the few friends he had made in high school, the kind who made friends with sincerity, but now he is in such an embarrassing situation. I don't know if this friend will still be able to do it in the future.

Li Ziqing got out of the bathroom and walked towards the kitchen, thinking about whether to call the other party, but on the way, he suddenly heard a rustle of turning the door lock at the door.

Li Ziqing was completely awake in an instant, and then his heart skipped a beat. It was supposed to be daylight at this point, and the thieves should be closed. How could there be such a blatant burglary?

Thinking like this, he moved towards the door lightly with a flustered expression, and picked up a ceramic vase on the way. It was a cloisonné that Ji Bing bought from some auction house.

The sound of the door lock twisting became more and more arrogant, Li Ziqing raised his heart in his throat, but luckily the other party opened the door not fast, so he was given time to slowly reach out his hand, clicked, and locked the door from the inside.

The sound outside stopped abruptly. Li Ziqing held his breath and waited for a second or two. Then he heard two loud knocks on the door outside. Immediately afterwards, Ji Bing's voice that could not hear his emotions suddenly sounded: "Li Ziqing Qing, open the door for me."
