half life after rebirth
Chapter 42
I'm going to have dinner with my colleagues in the afternoon, so I don't have to do my share of dinner, thank you. "
This is the text message Zhang Ming sent back to him.
Zhang Ming took him to the office gathering last time, so why can't he take him with him this time?Looking at Xue Kai who was still texting beside him, Yang Chen felt even more uncomfortable, thinking that Zhang Ming must not want to see him again.
Thinking of the conversation between the two that night, Yang Chen wondered, why did he say so resolutely that he didn't like Zhang Ming?If he had noticed a hint of liking for Zhang Ming at that time and said it out at that time, the situation would not be what it is now.
"Yang Chen, let's go, it's past six o'clock."
He has been thinking about things since five o'clock, but he didn't expect it to be past six o'clock in the blink of an eye.Yang Chen packed the books, stood up and walked with Xue Kai.Without Zhang Ming to pick him up, Yang Chen and Xue Kai stood at the bus stop and took the bus home.The whole journey was muddled, if Xue Kai hadn't called him, Yang Chen would have passed by.
"What's wrong with you today? You haven't been studying this afternoon." Xue Kai worried.
"It's nothing." Yang Chen was perfunctory while pressing the elevator. Why is the elevator so slow today, and it still hasn't come down.
Xue Kai grabbed Yang Chen's hand and stopped him from pressing it down: "Yang Chen, you are so irritable at the age of 30, you are so naive."
Said he was naive? !
He was 17 years old, not 30 as they thought he was! .
So in the eyes of these people in the future, has he always been a naive person? .
Yang Chen shook off Xue Kai's hand, and didn't want to have any more contact with him. He never thought that holding hands with someone other than Zhang Ming would feel like this.I don't want to hold him anymore, I don't want to continue for a second.
Seeing Yang Chen stepping into the elevator with a little fluff, Xue Kai panicked, and walked into the elevator with a stride: "Yang Chen!"
"I'm fine." Yang Chen squeezed the space between his eyebrows with his thumb and index finger, "I think I'm just a little sleepy."
"Leave today's dinner to me." Yang Chen was already so tired, it was impossible to expect him to cook dinner.
"You do? Do you eat instant noodles?" Yang Chen leaned against the wall and looked at the floors displayed on the elevator.
"Isn't there the woman next door to help?" In order to hurry, Liu Yuan will not eat here in the afternoon, Xue Kai can only pin his hopes on Nan Yao
"I don't know if she's here yet."
On the 25th floor, Yang Chen first stood at the door of his house and called Nan Yao.
"Hey, Xiaochen, what do you want from me?" Nan Yao's place was very noisy, and if you didn't listen carefully, you couldn't hear what she was saying clearly.
No matter what she was doing at home, she would not be so noisy like now, Yang Chen asked, "Are you not at home?"
"Yeah, I've already told Zhang Ming that I'm having a party outside. Well, it's four o'clock in the afternoon. Ah, don't make trouble, didn't you see me answering the phone?" Nan Yao's tone suddenly became fierce , don't know what people are talking about.
"Then you have fun."
"Hello? Hello?"
No matter how Nan Yao yelled, all she heard was the beeping sound after the phone hung up.
Yang Chen hung up the phone and held it tightly in his hand.He even asked Zhang Ming to come over for dinner under the pretext that Nan Yao was eating at his place. Unexpectedly, Nan Yao had already greeted Zhang Ming before, and she was having a party with friends outside in the afternoon.Should he be thankful that Zhang Ming didn't expose him?
"Yang Chen, what's the matter with you?" Sensing that Yang Chen's expression was a little strange, Xue Kai asked, tugging at his sleeve.
"It's nothing, Nanyao won't come over for dinner, there are only four of us at home this afternoon." Yang Chen said indifferently.
"That is to say, I have to cook the rice alone?" Xue Kai thought for a while and suggested, "The rice I cook is too lethal, let's go out and buy it."
"I'll cook the meal." Yang Chen took out the key and opened the door. In the living room, Yang Song and Liu Li were sitting in the living room watching TV.
Yang Chen made braised noodles today. Although it wasn't as delicious as Nan Yao's, it still tasted good.Except for Liu Li, everyone ate a lot.Worried that Yang Chen's body would not be able to bear it, after eating, Xue Kai took the initiative to pack the dishes and took them to the kitchen to wash.
"Father, I've finished my homework today, you can dictate the new words." Yang Song took out the Chinese book from his schoolbag and handed it to Yang Chen, and then took out a pen and homework book from his schoolbag.
"Brother Yang Song, is he going to start studying?" Compared to cartoons, Yang Song was more attractive to Liu Li. When she found out that Yang Song was not by her side, she ran over calling Yang Song's name.
"Yeah, so you watch cartoons by yourself first, and I'll come out after I finish my homework." After getting along with Liu Li for a long time, Yang Song no longer has a bad face towards her.
"Brother Yang Song, you need to write quickly, watching cartoons by yourself is not good at all." Liu Li's big eyes were full of water vapor, hazy and cute
"Okay." Yang Song agreed without hesitation.
The dictation of new words is very fast, and it only takes 5 minutes at most.After dictating the new characters, Yang Song was not in a hurry to go out, and sat quietly at the desk, looking at Yang Chen, hesitant to speak.
"What's wrong?" Yang Chen closed the Chinese book in his hand and put it aside.
"It's Children's Day soon. Will Zhang's father come to see me at school as he said at the beginning?" Although Zhang's father only came here for breakfast this morning, he still felt that Zhang's father was getting farther and farther away from them.The three of them were no longer as close as before, so Yang Song didn't know whether Father Zhang would still like to visit him at school.
"Since he has made an agreement with you, he must keep his word." From the time he can remember, Zhang Ming's promise will only be fulfilled in front of him.
"But." Yang Song said sadly, "Even if Father Zhang is willing to go, the feeling of being a family is gone."
Yang Chen knew in his heart that the relationship between him and Zhang Ming was not as good as it used to be, but he didn't want Yang Song to know this feeling: "Why not? I'm still your father, and Zhang Ming is still your Zhang Ming."
Saying this, I always feel a little self-deceiving.
"Father, don't you really like Zhang's father?" Yang Song summoned up his courage and asked.
"I..." Yang Chen didn't know how to answer.If it was before, he would answer no without hesitation.Now, he has fallen in love with Zhang Ming, but how could he tell his son this answer?How could he tell Yang Song that he liked a man?
"Dad, is it really that difficult to like Dad Zhang?" Yang Song sat helplessly by the bed, next to Yang Chen.
"I like him." Yang Chen suddenly felt that if he never told Zhang Ming that he liked him, then it would be a good choice to tell Yang Song, "I just found out that I like him yesterday. But what he liked was once Stupid me. I remember telling you about that."
"How is it possible? I don't believe it's true." The past between Dad and Zhang's father was vivid in his memory, and he was sure that Zhang's father liked dads at any time, not just silly dads.
"You are just a child, how can you understand the feelings of adults. You just need to know that since your father Zhang said so, it must be true." No matter what time it is, Yang Chen always believes in Zhang Ming so deeply.
Yang Song was silent for a while, then suddenly raised his head: "Father, you like Zhang Papa so much, so why don't you just chase him? Didn't you say that if you persevere, gold and stone can be carved? As long as you work hard to chase Papa Zhang, you will definitely be able to catch him. of!"
Yang Chen froze for a moment, then said, "You really like him that much?"
Yang Song leaned on Yang Chen and grabbed Yang Chen's arm: "I'm used to the three of us living together, and living in two apartments like this makes me feel so far away, and I really miss Papa Zhang. Why doesn't he come at noon, and why doesn't he come in the afternoon?"
"He's just busy." Yang Chen held his son in his arms, comforting him.
"Father, let's live like a family in the future, okay? I won't learn from other children. I ask you to have a mother. As long as you and Zhang's father are both my fathers, can you promise me?" Yang Song said slowly It seems that these words have been used as a belly draft and have been hidden in my heart for a long time.
"Okay." Imagining the old days, Yang Chen believed that with Zhang Ming, the three of them would live happier lives than many families, even if their families were not perfect.
"Check it." Yang Song stretched out his crooked little finger.
"Don't you hate this kind of girl's behavior the most?" Yang Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"I'm afraid you'll regret it."
Yang Chen had no choice but to stretch out his hand in resignation, and pull the hook with Yang Song.
"Pull the hook, hang yourself, and don't change it for 100 years." When he said these words, Yang Song's expression was even solemn.
"Yang Song." Yang Chen looked at his son with some embarrassment, "I promised you to chase Zhang Ming, but I don't know how to chase him."
Don't talk about chasing people, in the past 17 years, he was spoiled by Zhang Ming, and he never even tried to please others, and he never took the initiative to treat others well.Because he can solve most of the things by himself, even if he can't, there are Zhang Ming and his parents behind him.
"Father, have you never chased others?" Yang Song asked in surprise.
In Yang Song's eyes, Yang Chen is his 30-year-old father, it's really strange that he hasn't chased anyone before.
Taking into account the affairs of the Taisuo, Yang Song had no choice but to answer cheekily: "It's all others who chased me."
"Well, you can chase Dad Zhang as much as they chase you." Yang Song thought it was a good idea in his heart.
Thinking of the love letter stuffed in his drawer before, Yang Chen finally realized: "You mean, I will write a love letter to your father Zhang?"
Yang Song nodded desperately
"But I've only seen the envelope of the love letter, not the contents inside." Yang Chen said honestly.
"Father, you... Zhang's father said that not reading love letters is disrespectful to girls." Yang Song was like a little adult, and began to talk about Yang Chen's
