This trick is wrong!

Early the next morning, Lu Ran still woke up riding on the pillow and Huo Yichen's legs.

It seems that his habit of chasing people to sleep still hasn't changed!

The night before, the man next door originally wanted to take the pillow away, but Lu Ran sneered and asked for it again, and placed it in the middle of the bed, saying it would give him a sense of security.

Seeing the other party's self-inflicted distressed expression, Lu Ran felt a lot better.

As for Huo Yichen's question of "do you want to return the gift", Lu Ran refused without thinking.

It's not that he's reserved or playing hard to get, it's just that Huo Yichen seems to be controlling everything, and he feels like he's slipping into a trap.

Therefore, at least in terms of the relationship between the two of them, he has to take back some initiative and act according to his feelings, otherwise that person thinks he is soft and easy to pinch.

The person whose trick failed seemed very sorry, but he didn't force it. He just said that he could keep the account first and he was welcome to pick it up at any time.

Everything that happened the night before was beyond Lu Ran's expectations. Originally, he wanted to clear his mind before going to bed and see what he should do in the future. As soon as his eyelids were glued, he fell asleep uselessly.

After waking up, as usual, Huo Yichen used the bathroom first. Taking advantage of the other party's absence, Lu Ran immediately tied up the garbage bag containing a few rolls of toilet paper in the trash can next to the bed and put it at the door, and then threw the "birthday" bag he threw on the ground. The gift was also put away, and when I thought that this thing was poking out the moths, I hid it in the innermost part of the bedside table.

Huo Yichen said before that Pan Chi and Rong Qingxuan will come this weekend.

So after both of them cleaned themselves up, they cleaned up the house together again.

"Of course, you call." Lu Ran had just returned from throwing out the trash when he saw Huo Yichen walking over with his cell phone, "Editor Zhao."

Lu Ran looked at Huo Yichen's expression and found that the other party didn't have any displeasure. It seemed that he was not dissatisfied with his side job. Then he took the phone and swiped to answer it.

"Editor Zhao, what's the matter?" Lu Ran entered the kitchen while holding the phone, and began to clean the range hood.

Recently, he has been cooking. Huo Yichen cleaned up the kitchen. That person's work can only be regarded as a pass. Many places on the corners of the hood are not wiped clean, and he has to rely on him to deal with the aftermath.

"Lu Ran, there are a few quotas for overseas interviews in the agency, do you want to go?"

Zhao Xu's voice was a bit rigid, and Lu Ran could imagine that person wearing glasses and looking expressionless like an old man.

"Oh... I won't go." He didn't believe that such a good thing would be his turn, so he consciously refused.

"You also know that our magazine wants to upgrade, but there have been no important manuscripts so far, so this time the agency has spent a lot of money to provide opportunities for us reporters. You can think about it again."

"Give this opportunity to those who need it more. I can't leave my work here."

"Well, okay, I'm only responsible for notifying everyone, otherwise it will be my negligence at work if anyone is left behind, and then you should remember this matter, in case you have a vacation and want to go out for an interview, then contact me."

"Okay, Editor Zhao, is there anything else?" Lu Ran said while holding the oil stains on the corners of the hood with his fingers.

Perhaps because he felt that he still had some personal relationship with Lu Ran, Zhao Xu paused and said, "How are you doing now?"

"It's pretty good, how about you?" Lu Ran asked unconcernedly.

"It's okay. The previous report on the interview with President Tianyi has been published in the previous issue. If you are interested, you can take a look."

Lu Ran smiled: "How is the writing?"

"Lena's literary talents are still acceptable."

"Yes, literary talent." Lu Ran emphasized.

There wasn't much to talk about, and the two hung up the phone after a few perfunctory words.

When Lu Ran came out of the kitchen, Huo Yichen had finished his housework and was leaning on the sofa with his legs crossed to watch the news.

Lu Ran washed his hands, sat next to Huo Yichen, and watched the news.

Near noon, after Huo Yichen answered two calls, he told Lu Ran that the two men would be here soon, "Pan Chi's brother-in-law is busy with a case today, so he can't come."

"Oh." Lu Ran didn't care if that person came or not.

"Speaking of which, have you ever been jealous of Pan Chi?"

Lu Ran's eyelids twitched, but his eyes were still fixed on the TV news, "I don't know when it happened."

Although he pretended to concentrate on watching the news, he could still feel the scorching stares from the people around him, and Lu Ran was determined not to be moved, otherwise it would only encourage the other party's arrogance.

He remembered that he was really uncomfortable when he heard Pan Chi's name from Huo Yichen at first, but he didn't think much about it at that time.Now that I think about it, it might be a bit unpleasant, but he doesn't know it himself, but Huo Yichen knows it?

Later, he heard the person next to him smile and said, "Why do I think your acting skills are good? You thought you were pretending to watch TV, but you were actually looking at me from the corner of your eye."

"Are you saying that I have nothing to hide from you?"

"more or less."

"But I won't be jealous casually." So he didn't take it seriously.

"Really?" Huo Yichen's tone was quite brisk, "Counting Xiaorong and Chen Ge...you're going to be jealous."

Lu Ran was so angry that his breath was stuck in his throat. He found that this man who was pursuing him seemed to be a very bad person!

"Boss, you feel too good about yourself."

The doorbell rang, interrupting the two people's teasing each other, Huo Yichen went to open the door, Lu Ran also tugged at his clothes, and followed behind.

The first man who came into sight was wearing gold-rimmed glasses. His figure and temperament were somewhat similar to Huo Yichen's. However, in Lu Ran's opinion, he was not as cheerful and gentle as his boss, and slightly gloomy. Maybe it was because of his good friend. The gloom did not affect Lu Ran's good impression on him.

The second person was more unexpected than Lu Ran expected.

He knew that this should be Huo Yichen's 'rumored boyfriend' Rong Qingxuan in the legend.

Hearing this name, one can imagine how beautiful the owner of the name is, but actually seeing it, it still caused a certain shock to Lu Ran.

No wonder Chen Ge would say that Rong Qingxuan was a few blocks away from him in terms of family background, appearance, and temperament.

It really looks like a beauty walking out of a painting.

But the only place where standing with Huo Yichen is against harmony is also what makes Lu Ran feel strangely gratified, that is, this person named Rong Qingxuan is too tall...

It must be at least 1.9 meters... This height and such a beautiful appearance are really...

Lu Ran, who was less than 1.8 meters tall, walked on the street, although no one said he was short, but standing with Rong Qingxuan in front of him, he seemed to be disabled.

However, Lu Ran was completely at ease. With Huo Yichen's heart, he probably would never find a man taller than himself as a lover.

Realizing his own feelings, Lu Ran had to admit that he didn't fully believe Huo Yichen's words of "just a friend" before, and now he completely believed it.

Several people greeted each other, and after introducing each other, Lu Ran led them into the house.

While changing his shoes, Pan Chi looked around and said with emotion: "Ah, I didn't expect it to be like this..." Then he noticed the look in Huo Yichen's eyes, Pan Chi raised his eyebrows, and didn't continue talking.

But Lu Ran completed the unfinished sentence for the other party: "It's so small." Lu Ran poured two glasses of water and handed them over, "The working class is like this, of course it can't be compared with you local tyrants."

"Haha, that's good." Seeing that Lu Ran didn't shy away from this gap in life, Pan Chi continued, "It's not bad to make money to support yourself. My brother-in-law is also like this."

"Okay, three words are not far from your brother-in-law." Rong Qingxuan had already sat down, and the difference in height became less obvious, "Lu Ran, thank you for accepting Huo Yichen, and I finally don't have to deal with the rumors between the two of us in the future. gone."

Lu Ran smiled after hearing this, "Just don't create rumors yourself." He meant something.

After hearing this, Rong Qingxuan was taken aback, and after two seconds, he seemed to have come to his senses, and burst out laughing, covering his stomach with joy: "Old Huo, your...your little...boyfriend,...so straightforward... Good! I like it."

Huo Yichen, who was chatting with Pan Chi, heard this sentence, hugged Lu Ran casually, squeezed into his arms, and said, "You don't have anything to do anymore, just chat if you want to, don't use your brain."

Lu Ran glanced at the hand stuck in his waist. Although his body was a little unnatural, he didn't break free.

He knew that in front of Huo Yichen's friends, he was not the one being pursued by Huo Yichen, but was this person's boyfriend who had been with him for half a year, so he could only admit that he was taken advantage of.

Pan Chi looked at the state of the two of them thoughtfully, then winked at Huo Yichen, and the two went to the window.

Lu Ran sat on the sofa with Rong Qingxuan.

"Last time I told Aunt Qin about the matter of Lao Huo's boyfriend, didn't it cause any conflicts in your family? Haha, it's too embarrassing not to tell me who made him have a wife. I just thought, why not?" I have to make him unhappy once, I'm really sorry to accidentally hurt you, don't blame me."

The beautiful person even seemed more sincere in apologizing, and Lu Ran calmly guessed Qin Ying's attitude in the matter of Rong Qingxuan, so he finally gained something, so he graciously forgave Rong Qingxuan.

As an apology, Rong Qingxuan told a lot about his previous 'scandal' with Huo Yichen.

Hearing those things, Lu Ran didn't feel disgusted, because Rong Qingxuan's tone was completely that he felt that the onlookers who were tricked by them were too stupid and cute, and he didn't mean to show off to him at all.

On the contrary, Lu Ran became more and more fond of this person.

It's really like what Huo Yichen described, it's a wonderful thing.

Huo Yichen and Pan Chi stood by the window, the two tall men made the window look much smaller.

Regarding the relationship between Huo Yichen and Lu Ran, Pan Chi knew the truth.

"It seems that the progress is not bad?" Pan Chi said.

"I just made a breakthrough last night." Huo Yichen smiled fishily.

"Oh, no wonder... Just now, you smelled like you were ready to eat it alive at any time. But I said you should take it easy, don't be too obvious, if he knows that you have been secretly in love with him for so long, do you think he will?" It will crush you to death."

Huo Yichen didn't express his opinion on this, but instead glanced at the watch on his wrist, showing an unclear smile.

After a while, Huo Yichen changed the subject, "Your friend who is a psychiatrist is really poor."

"You said he made a diagnosis for your family? What is that psychological disorder called? My God, I told you not to believe it at the time. He only sees sick people. Do you think that just anyone is dumped? You will throw out psychological problems? You can't help but see people too fragile. Sure enough, men in love are stupid. So I told you at the time to chase him boldly, and you still need to go around so much to chase him on your terms. Wan, I really admire you."

The distance between the two is not far, Pan Chi's voice is very soft, ensuring that the people on the sofa can't hear it, but Huo Yichen can hear every word without saying a word.

He nodded noncommittally, and then smiled deeply: "But because of it, I got a very wonderful experience."

Knowing what Huo Yichen was talking about, Pan Chi thought for a while and nodded accordingly.

With Huo Yichen's character, it's really a pity to let him chase people in a regular manner, and besides, it's impossible for such a proud person to do it.

That kind of weird relationship should be rough.

The four chatted for a while, and Huo Yichen decided to invite a few people out for a meal.

Just after eating, Pan Chi answered the phone. He originally planned to chat for a while, but because of the phone call, he left in a hurry.

Although he didn't say who was on the other side of the phone, Lu Ran guessed that it should be the 'brother-in-law' who only heard his name but didn't know who he was.

After Pan Chi left, Rong Qingxuan said 'I don't want to be a light bulb' and left quickly.

On the way home, Lu Ran was a little strange, so he asked, "Is this the way they usually are?"

Lu Ran's ability to observe people other than himself is very strong. Huo Yichen has already seen this clearly. He shook his head and said, "It's a little different."

Lu Ran shrugged.

He didn't think it was as simple as just 'kinda'.

The identities, temperament, conversation, and momentum of those two people, if they met as strangers, he would definitely be suppressed and dare not speak, but after getting in touch with them today, he felt that they were as easy to approach as the ordinary people he usually met.

Lu Ran looked at the boss who was not surprised by this at all, and felt that this probably means that birds of a feather flock together and people are divided into groups.

Huo Yichen, who always appears unfathomable in front of others, will give him a chance to see clearly.

It's good to be pursued by such a person.

Probably the only uncertain factor is my own home...

Thinking about it, Lu Ran stretched out his hand and grabbed the other's right hand hanging by his side.
