like drinking ice

After returning home for a long time, I was not used to it.Probably stayed alone for too long.

But still good.

The steaming honey citron tea at breakfast, the tall bookshelf where you have to go up a ladder to get the top book, the soft carpet, the warm bed, the birds chirping outside the window when you wake up in the morning, and the sun is shining brightly.

I will also hear news from Zheng Ao.After all, they are family friends, and there are too many business contacts. Once there was something urgent, the housekeeper came across the corridor and hurried over to ask Li Xiu what, I only heard the words "Mr. Xiao Zheng", and then they turned around and saw me.

The housekeeper lowered his head and hurried to Li Xiu's study.

I stopped Li Xiu who was about to walk away as if nothing had happened.

"Li Xiu."

"What?" He didn't have a good voice anyway.

"I have nothing to do with Zheng Ao's matter." I told him bluntly: "Whether your business or personal relationship is good, you don't have to shy away from me, it has nothing to do with me."

Li Xiu pursed his lips and was silent for a while.

"Who has a personal relationship with that scumbag," he said.

Then he walked away impatiently.

When the first snow fell, the tree by my window had lost all its leaves.

When I go to work late in winter, my movements seem to slow down.The last time I chatted with Senior Sister Xue’s husband, he is a public prosecutor, and he invited all our colleagues to dinner. During the chat, he said that there are usually the most criminal cases in summer, probably because of the hot weather, people’s impetuousness, and impulsiveness.In winter in Beijing, when the northwest wind blows, people don't want to go out of the house, so they don't want to kill people and set fires.

Senior Sister Xue got married when she was eleven. After she got married, she gave up her position and started to do some leisure work. It is said that she was preparing for pregnancy.Those girls said it was a pity, but I thought it was pretty good. I saw her husband come to pick her up from get off work, wearing the uniform black coat issued by the procuratorate, and holding her shoulders, the two talked and laughed, and walked to the bus stop together.

I bought a car myself and drove it home after work every day. Because I lived at home and my dad watched over me, it was not easy to work too much overtime, and I took home work to do.The housekeeper of the Li family is also in his 50s and [-]s. He is very loyal and actively acts as my father's eyes and ears.There were a few days when I had a lot of cases and drank too much coffee at night. When I was having breakfast in the morning, my dad would look at me reproachfully.

I had a good life, but my dad was a little nervous. He always blamed himself and felt sorry for me.On weekends, I sat with him and read a book, and when I looked up halfway, I always found that he was looking at me very worriedly.

He asked Li Xiu to take good care of me and take me out to play. The first time Li Xiu said this, he took me directly to the army. I was wrapped in a coat and sat next to the training ground, watching a group of recruits shirtless in the cold. Running in the wind, I was shivering with cold, and they all ran sweating.Li Xiu scolded them for being slow like pigs, while encouraging me to go down and take off my clothes and run.

This time Li Xiu said again that he would take me to play.I saw that it had just snowed outside, so I quickly took out my down jacket and put it on, and I was wearing a thick sweater underneath. Seeing my posture, Li Xiu was stunned for a moment, as if he had something to say, but the housekeeper came in right away. Said the car was ready.He always looks like he doesn't know me well when there are people around.

The dark SUV drove along the Second Ring Road, and finally stopped on a certain bar street.

I finally understood why he was so surprised by my clothes.

It was very warm in the bar, so I took off my down jacket when I went in. Li Xiu must have been invited by a friend this time, and there were already people waiting in the box, and they were all dressed very simply. Wearing a sweater, he laughed and clapped directly, and someone whistled.

"What are you bragging about!" Li Xiu directly yelled at the man's head: "Is someone dead at home, so happy bragging!"

The man smiled and dodged it, and he was not angry. He had a round baby face, but he was a little tanned, and he was wearing a camouflage T-shirt, which looked a bit like a military uniform.

"Is this your brother?" a person next to him asked.

There were only three people sitting in the box, except for the baby-faced whistler, a tall man with a crew cut, and a well-mannered young man with glasses. The one who spoke was the young man with glasses.

Li Xiu didn't answer him.

"Jiang Qi, wooden stakes, and four eyes." Li Xiu dryly introduced their names to me.Jiangqi is the number seven ball in billiards, and their nicknames are quite ingenious.Li Xiu probably knew these people very well.

I think it seems impolite to call someone I just met that way, and I hesitate a bit.

The young man in glasses smiled.

"It's okay, just call him," the baby-faced Jiang Qi told me, "We still call him a fake foreign devil."

Li Xiu glared at him: "You can try again."

Seeing that the first meeting was about to turn into a fight, a girl's voice interrupted.

"Dead wood pile, you are here!" It was a very beautiful girl, probably only around high school, and she was wearing a very delicate private high school uniform, British style, red and black plaid skirt, a pair of small leather shoes with buckles .She threw her schoolbag on the sofa seat of the box, and leaned her whole body on the table. Her hair was very long, waist-length, and slid down her back like satin. Her bangs were straight, and she had very beautiful eyes, very natural. He leaned over: "What are you talking about! I want to listen too!"

Li Xiu's face sank.

"Is the security guard at this bar dead? Minors are also allowed in."

The girl laughed and leaned back on the sofa.

"This girl has her own tricks." She was very proud: "Cut, isn't it just a broken bar, who hasn't been here? As soon as I reported your name, they let me in! Look at you, how depraved your private life is! "

Li Xiu looked too lazy to talk to her.

But she didn't care about it at all, her eyes flicked around: "Hey, there are people kissing over there! Damn, he looks so ugly!"

"Little aunt, grandma, please don't let your sister know that you are playing with us in the bar." Jiang Qi looked bitter, like a child imitating an adult: "Your sister won't do it unless you skin me."

She pretended she didn't hear it at all, and turned her eyes to the stage in the middle of the dance floor: "Little Hades, is that person on stage going to sing?"

I looked at her eyes that turned like glass beads, and finally remembered who she was.

She is Ye Susu.

The Ye family has no sons, only a pair of daughters, the eldest daughter is Ye Lanzi, who is already engaged, and the youngest daughter is still in school, named Ye Susu.It is said that the Ye family couple are very affectionate, and their two daughters are raised like pearls.

"Hey, Xiaoxian," Ye Susu obviously couldn't sit still, and started pushing the girl next to her: "Let's go see that person sing."

If she hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have noticed that there was another girl here.

Compared with the brightly colored school uniform worn by Ye Susu's slender body, her clothes are dark and a little chunky, her hair is cut very short, like noodles in clear soup, and she wears black-rimmed glasses, sitting silently in the corner inside.If Ye Susu is a flower bud with dew in the morning, she should be a dark green leaf.She probably also knew that her personality was not easy to get along with others, so she read the e-book silently by herself.

If I'm not mistaken, I know this girl's brother.

She is Wang Lang's younger sister, Wang Xian.

A group of people sat together and fought for a long time, and I gradually got a clue. These three men should be friends with Li Xiu in the army, and their family background is not bad, but the family style is very old-fashioned. I still believe in the idea that boys want to be soldiers.So all of them were sent to the army. I don't know the names of Jiang Qi and the young man with glasses, but Mu Zhuangzi is obviously Zhou Xun.

The person who is engaged to Ye Lanzi is Zhou Xun.

The Zhou family has great power and cherishes feathers very much.But the heir is so low-key, it is still very unexpected.He is indeed a bit like his nickname, he has a generous and upright character, Ye Susu has been tossing around, so he just smiled and looked at her tolerantly like an older brother.

I sat for a while, sweating on my forehead because of the thermal underwear and shirt inside the sweater, asked where the bathroom was, and was about to go and take off my clothes.Ye Susu also called out, "I'm going to the bathroom too."

"Others go to the men's bathroom, why are you joining in the fun!" Li Xiu has been very impatient with her.

"Let's go all the way, can't we? I want you to take care of it!" Ye Susu's mouth was very sharp, and he grabbed my arm familiarly: "Yes, Xu Lang."

Wang Xian kept looking down at the e-book, saying not to go to the bathroom, Ye Susu didn't know if she was trying to annoy Li Xiu on purpose or something, she really kept holding my arm and walked all the way.

Outside the bathroom of the bar is a row of sofas, probably for resting, facing the back door of the bar, where many people are sitting, smoking and playing with their mobile phones.

"Okay, here we are." Regardless of the hostile eyes around her looking at her school uniform, Da Lala let go of my hand and walked straight to the women's bathroom.I didn't even have time to tell her to be careful.This girl has a bit of a tiger personality, her sister is just the opposite, very ladylike.

Because the cubicle in the men's restroom was very tight and there were many people waiting, I simply stood by the sink and took off my clothes, wearing a shirt underneath.

I didn't expect to meet Zheng Ao here.

My sweater wasn't fully off, my arms were still in the sleeves, my hair was a mess, and he was standing in front of me.

He seems to have come to play, wearing a light-colored shirt with dark brown trousers underneath. He looks very nostalgic. He has lost a lot of weight, but he still looks handsome, and he still holds a cigarette in his hand.

I reacted, turned around and left.
