man in suit

The setting sun spread a layer of shimmering light on the lake, as if sprinkled with fine crystals. Most of the tourists in the park had gone home in twos and threes.

A small willow-like boat pushed circles of water patterns on the lake, and the cool breeze blew up a few strands of black hair from the man sitting on the bow. He stroked his hair casually with his fingers, and Ming Chen faced the lake wind. He closed his eyes, and the gentle wind blew over his cheeks, bringing a slight itch.

"Still angry about what happened to He Hongxue?"

He Wenxuan's voice came from behind, Mingchen opened his eyes and looked at the lush green forest on the shore in the distance: "Can we not mention him?"

Such a beautiful scenery, don't mention a person who spoils the scenery.

"He's actually not that bad..." Ming Chen covered his ears as soon as he finished speaking, and He Wenxuan smiled softly, "Okay, don't mention him."

"One year during the summer vacation of primary school, Wen Han and I were sent to City C to participate in a summer camp. Wen Han has been a guy who can eat and drink since he was a child. When he was hungry at night, he went to this lake to catch fish, but he almost drowned. " Looking at the man's calm back, He Wenxuan talked about the embarrassing things about He Wenhan when he was a child, "Since then he has been very afraid of water."

Seeing that Mingchen didn't respond, He Wenxuan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed: "Am I a very boring person?"

"You don't have to make me happy on purpose." Looking back at He Wenxuan, Ming Chen turned around, lowered his head, took off his shoes and socks, rolled his trouser legs above his knees, and sat down next to He Wenxuan, stretching his legs into the lake.

The slightly swaying legs stirred up white waves in the lake, and Ming Chen turned his head to look at the gentle man beside him: "I know who I am."

This was also He Hongxue's purpose that day. Even if he lost his memory, he still had to clearly remember his own identity. No matter how special he was, he was just a pet that was dependent on others.

He Wenxuan was speechless for a moment, and he stared at Ming Chen quietly for a while. The sunset light hit the man's side face, and the light and shadow intersected, making it look like a beautiful oil painting against the background in the distance.

Quiet and lonely.

Familiar and unfamiliar.

"Don't do stupid things." He Wenxuan stretched out his hand to gently wrap his arms around the man's shoulder when he wanted to say something but suddenly didn't know what to say.

"Worried about me committing suicide again?" Ming Chen raised his eyebrows, glanced at He Wenxuan, and said with a smile on his face, "One suicide is enough."

Whether it's taking sleeping pills or taking a bullet to your temple.

"He Wenxuan, have you done anything extraordinary in the past?" Ming Chen asked curiously.

Shaking his head, He Wenxuan looked at the man's calves dangling in the lake and said, "If it's for a momentary stimulation and impulse, no."

He prefers to let everything run according to the established track, just like his own life, he has been a good boy, a good student, a good brother and a good brother since he was a child.

He Wenxuan is very satisfied with his current life.

"When you were studying, did you ever have a crush on someone? Did you fight with someone? Did you skip class? Did you stay out with your friends at night and get drunk?" Ming Chen asked unwillingly.

He Wenxuan shook his head with a smile: "This is what He Wenhan would do."

They are also twins, one is too calm and quiet, while the other is irritable and dangerous.

"Have you ever liked someone? I mean the feeling like a racing heart."

"Why do you ask this all of a sudden?"

"While wandering around the city today, I saw a lot of loving couples. When I was sitting by the lake drinking coffee, I wondered if I had ever loved someone before." Ming Chen looked at He Wenxuan, "A 30-year-old Isn't it ridiculous for a man to say such a thing? But it's just... suddenly I want to know what it feels like to love and be loved."

With a faint smile, Ming Chen turned his head and looked into the distance, muttering: "Sometimes I really don't know what you like about me."

"Be careful--"

A gust of wind blew, and the boat shook suddenly, and the man sitting beside the boat became unsteady and fell directly into the lake.

"Mingchen!" He Wenxuan shouted loudly, and the man disappeared as soon as he fell into the lake.

Taking a deep breath, He Wenxuan immediately jumped into the lake. Just after he jumped in, the man who had disappeared just now surfaced.

Only after he breathed a sigh of relief, He Wenxuan saw Ming Chen turn around and swim towards the shore.

This guy……

"Mr. He?" The bodyguard stood on the boat.

Seeing the man swimming farther and farther, He Wenxuan turned around and chased after Mingchen. The center of the lake is not far from the shore but not too close. The man in sight is getting closer and closer to him but he is always out of reach.

He Wenxuan speeded up and finally caught up with Mingchen before reaching the shore.

Grabbed Ming Chen's calf from behind, pulled it hard and swam forward at the same time, looked up and met Ming Chen's smiling face, with wet hair sticking to his forehead, the man in the afterglow of the sunset looked particularly conspicuous, The surrounding scenery became blurred.

"Don't look at me like that. I said I wouldn't do stupid things if I didn't commit suicide. I was just wondering why I didn't just swim for a while since I fell into the lake." Ming Chen said with a smile, "You've done this kind of thing before. Swimming in the lake in the park?"

"No."

"It's good to be steady, but it's also good to be bold and try something you've never done before. You're still so young, so don't live a more boring life than me, a man in his 30s." Ming Chen said as he spoke. He raised his head and took a deep breath, as if the entire sky, the entire lake, the entire park, and the entire world belonged to him.

"Really?" The corners of He Wenxuan's mouth raised unconsciously.

Smiling at He Wenxuan, Mingchen continued to swim to the shore, and He Wenxuan followed Mingchen until they landed together.

Like two soaked chickens, the two men standing on the shore were drenched to the ground.

"I bet you've never been so embarrassed before," the hearty laughter revealed gloating, the haze just now was swept away, Ming Chen stepped forward and gently hugged the helpless He Wenxuan, in the man's ear He said softly, "Thank you for accompanying me."

Dazed for a moment, He Wenxuan smiled and hugged the man back: "Let's stay here tonight."

……

Temporarily stayed in a villa by the lake, the gate of the park has been closed, a round of bright crescent moon hangs in the treetops, reflecting brightly on the calm lake, and the uninhabited boat parked quietly and alone by the lake.

The lights in the villa illuminated the surroundings, and inside the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows, freshly cooked delicacies were placed on the dining table, and fragrant flowers were dotted among them.

He Wenxuan, who had been washed, pressed the switch of the antique jukebox, and soft and romantic notes slowly escaped.

"Does it need to be so formal?"

He Wenxuan looked towards the source of the sound when he heard the sound. A man with half-dry hair leaned against the door and looked at him. He was wearing a wine-red satin pajamas. Ming Chen, who was wearing slippers, came over and sat directly in front of the dining table.

It seemed that he was really hungry, Mingchen ate with gusto, and his mood and state were obviously much better than during the day.

"Have you had fun today? I know there are several good places in City C. I can let the butler take you around tomorrow." He Wenxuan said as he cut a piece of tender beef with a delicate silver knife and fork.

"To be honest, it's quite boring to be alone. Are you going to continue working tomorrow?"

"Well, I don't have anything to stay with you tomorrow morning. I have a tea party in the afternoon and a small dinner in the evening. I may not be back until evening."

He raised his wine glass and took a sip of the red wine, and lightly licked the corner of his mouth with the tip of his tongue, Mingchen asked seemingly casually, "Is it not convenient for me to go?"

He Wenxuan looked up at the man, and the corner of his mouth slightly raised: "Of course you can go, but you didn't like to participate in similar social activities before. If you want, you can go out with me tomorrow, but most of the time I don't Way to take care of you."

"I just lost my memory, it's not that I lost my brain and became mentally handicapped." Ming Chen lowered his head and took a bite of the beef, the delicious gravy spread between his lips and teeth, "Walk around and take a look, maybe it can help me recall something from the past."

He Wenxuan's movement of cutting the beef suddenly paused, Ming Chen saw nothing in his eyes, as if he didn't see anything.

After dinner, He Wenxuan went back to the study first, the door was closed tightly and he didn't know what the man was doing inside.

It had been an hour since He Wenxuan reappeared. The man still in pajamas was sitting on the bedside in the bedroom without turning on the TV. He was quietly reading a book under the bedside lamp and was engrossed in it.

"Do you like this book?"

As if disturbed, Ming Chen looked up at He Wenxuan who was walking towards him: "Sorry, I moved your book."

"It's okay, I interrupted your reading." Sitting on the bed, He Wenxuan moved to Ming Chen's side and looked at the pages. Ming Chen had already read dozens of pages. He smiled slightly, "Do you like it?"
