Balance beam

As night fell, Li Jia sat at the table holding the newly delivered pastries, carefully unpacking them.

I still remember that Palin would take him on the plane for his birthday when he was young, but now he is full of joy guarding a piece of cake, and it will melt into the sweetness of his heart when he eats it.

Looking up at the starry sky, as long as I am still in the same city with this person, as long as I can see him often, I will feel very happy, not to mention the current relationship has exceeded expectations.

Don't care about the past, don't ask about the future, don't care about the length of time, just love blindly, simply miss.It is easier to bear than the unforgettable loss.

For so many years, if it wasn't for Jiang Jiang, he almost thought he would not be able to survive.

With no goal and no hope in sight, everything becomes dull and uninteresting, almost living for the sake of living.

The black hole in his heart would gradually expand at the thought of being separated from Perrin and never seeing him again.

In the unit next door, there was a single man who was seriously ill. He looked innocent and happy on weekdays. When the news of his death came one day, the people who heard it were very surprised.

His mother angrily accused everyone that the stepfather would kill himself because he couldn't tolerate him, but almost everyone knew that the honest stepfather was usually bullied by their mother and son, so he dared not say a word.

The bachelor injected a month's worth of Yidaosu into his body.

When Li Jia heard about it, he was tangled in his heart. He envied his bravery and felt sorry for his family.A day without hope, if there is no thought to support life, how dear and lovely it is to die.

If I can also selfishly abandon everything, maybe it is also a relief?

He didn't suffer that kind of suffering, lovelorn and illness can never be compared, so like a fish ravaged by a blunt knife, he sinks and closes himself, burying the past, only by pretending that it never happened, will he not feel so uncomfortable.

Li Jia has foreseen his own future, just like a mule carrying a burden, he has endured a lot and walked silently through his life.

When he woke up and saw Palin sitting on the head of the bed, Li Jia forced the corner of his mouth to smile and asked him, "Are you here?"

Just when I wanted to get up, I realized that my head became extremely heavy, and I fell back again in a daze.

Perrin's brow furrowed even deeper, reproachfully. "Why don't you close the windows when you sleep?"

Li Jia smiled drowsily, and Perrin took off the ice pack on his forehead and put it aside, took Li Jia's hand to his lips and kissed it lightly. "How did you get here all these years? You didn't have anyone to take care of you. You were just so confused and dragged down a child." Perrin laughed. "It's not easy to live to this day."

Li Jia also laughed, "Yes, yes, how did you survive?"

The two looked at each other childishly.

When Li Jia fell asleep, he thought how good it would be if he was still alive when he woke up, and he couldn't help but tighten his fingers a little.

The warmth from the palm is Palin's thoughtfulness and care, and such warmth is reluctant to be lost no matter what.

"Why don't you take good care of yourself?" The simple question, Palin's flickering eyes, made Li Jia wrinkle his nose involuntarily.Suddenly I understand why those women who are scheming and sympathetic always hurt themselves again and again. It turns out that being indulging in the care of the person you like is so inextricable.

He didn't intend to attract the attention of the other party, but he was very moved and pleasantly surprised by it.

All loneliness becomes insignificant.

In the middle of the month, Palin took Li Jia to Cape Town, a beautiful and clean city, where he had been on vacation.

It was Li Jia's first time here, and everything he saw was new. He only felt that the climate here was warm and humid, and the temperature was similar to that of normal summer.

It's just that the street scenery is full of European and American atmosphere, which is definitely not comparable to a leisurely small town like Xia Xia.

The variety of wines is also rich and diverse. When Palin took him to taste them one by one, the only regret was that they could only come to the conclusion that they tasted good, but they really couldn't tell the difference.

He secretly made up his mind to temper himself more and not to be ashamed like a bumpkin.

Li Jia took a peek at how Palin treated people, seeing Palin staring at him, he withdrew his hand and pretended not to peek.

This kind of Li Jia always made Palin laugh. He used to come to see the scenery, but now he came to see the people. Traveling with the people he likes is really a good thing.

Even if he just sleeps next to him, he feels happy and at ease.

When flying, Li Jia put on his coat and slept lightly with his head tilted, while he opened a book to pass the time. When he was free, he looked to the side, and the sleeping face of that person came into view, and he felt very warm.

Sonia threw the documents on the table angrily, "Dad, Qian Peilin has a problem."

The old man Suo casually picked up the document and flipped through it. He thought for a while and touched his chin lightly with his palm. He felt his stubble growing out again. "Son, that doesn't mean anything."

Sonia sank into the sofa and looked at her father in disbelief with her mouth slightly open, "That doesn't explain anything?"

Old man Suo nodded.

Sonia's slender hands clenched into fists and slammed on the armrest, "They kept it from me."

His father looked at Sonia with wise eyes, and Sonia turned his father's gaze back without knowing why. "Dad, you will go to the company with me tomorrow."

The old man Suo laughed, "Where are you planning to go on vacation this year?"

Sonia kept her mouth shut and her face was gloomy.

According to the habit in the early years, Palin would take them out after the reconciliation, but there is no plan for this year.It's just that Aunt Xue is celebrating the New Year here for the first time, so it's not good to let her spend the New Year with her father alone, it seems too deserted.

Sonia was moved by Palin's thoughtfulness, and immediately nodded in agreement.

The conflict between her and that woman was self-evident, and she didn't want to leave this opportunity for her to take advantage of it.

But she accidentally found out that Palin had asked her assistant to buy two tickets, and she could find out where she was flying to with just a little research. She couldn't even fool herself when she said she didn't mind.

His father was already worried about which pot would not be opened and which pot was being lifted, and he didn't wink at all. Sonia was so angry that she glared at her father.

Suo's father laughed loudly, "My princess, it's not a big deal. Little CASE is just a company, and he's just operating behind the scenes. It's not a big deal. A man always needs some private money."

"What kind of private money do you want? He's getting a dividend. Is it a bad thing to do so?"

"Haha, he has a salary, and you are also the financial director. How come you don't know until now?"

Suo's father once again hit Sonia's vital point.

"Forget it, don't worry about these details anymore, he deserves it."

Father Suo stared at Sonia with his two big fingers crossed back and forth.

Sonia has indeed offended many people because of her aggressiveness in dealing with people. She only has the temper of a young lady and does not have the management talent of a superior.

"Son, listen to me, he can make whatever he wants! As long as you live a good life."

"... "

"In the future, mine will be yours? If you can tie a man's heart with money so that he will never abandon you for the rest of his life, then dad is willing too."

This man was chosen by Sonia herself. Even if Suo's father is unwilling, how many parents in the world can screw their children?

Even if there were plans to separate them in the first few years, they are already disheartened now.

Although her father's words were not accusations, they made Sonia feel distressed. Her father had long said that the best gift she could give him was to live a happy life.

Sonia came to her father with tears in the corners of her eyes, and Suo's father raised his hand to stroke her hair lightly.

The curly hair dyed and permed sorrel was soft and comfortable. Suo's father wrapped his fingers around his daughter's hair with great emotion, "How long can Dad stay with you? You have to learn to be tolerant of others and treat yourself well, so that I can rest assured."

Her father's health was getting worse day by day, and there was a nutritionist who wanted to become her stepmother. Sonia hugged her father's waist, "No, Dad, you have to walk behind me."

Facing his daughter's acting like a baby, Suo's father smiled helplessly, "Alright, I'll walk behind you. You cruel child."

"Dad is the strongest. I can't live without Dad."

Suo's father hugged Sonia with tears in his eyes. This child only inherited his strong appearance, but his heart was as weak as her mother's.

He choked and comforted his daughter, "It's not a big deal. Although Palin is a bit of a money worshiper, he is more greedy for the right to control the fate of others. It seems that such a man is difficult to control, but he is easy to control, because he is not obsolete." Conscience, the word raising tigers is not suitable for our family. He will be used by you in a moderate manner. After all these years of Sonia, you can also see that he is good in nature and will not harm you after all. "

My father has read countless people and never miscalculated.

Sonia lowered her head, she had seen a lot about the grievances and grievances of wealthy families, father and son fought against each other, brothers were not tolerated, and teaming up with outsiders to fight in the nest emerged endlessly.

Ever since Aunt Xue came, although she once suspected that Palin had bad intentions, she still believed that he was not the kind of person who played tricks.

Father Suo patted the back of Sonia's hand, "Why did he do this? Did you put too much pressure on him?"

Sonia was at a loss for a while, and didn't know what to say. She couldn't tell her father that Palin had bumped into him because of her affair, and she didn't believe that Palin was the kind of impromptu people who plan.Pulled a smile to his father, "We are fine, nothing is wrong. It's just that I suddenly know that he has such a plan, and I feel uncomfortable."

"If possible," Suo's father swallowed half of his words.If possible, he still hopes to see his daughter have a real love with Palin.

But these years, no matter how optimistic a person is, he has to shake his head. Naturally, he has no illusions.

Suo's father found it incredible that how could Palin like men?It also took him a long time to adapt, a gay became his son-in-law.

Li Jia received a call from Jiang Jiang while on vacation, "Dad, when are you coming back?"

Although he was prepared, Li Jia was frightened when he heard Jiang Jiang's voice, and the pre-thought-out excuse was immediately thrown into the Zhuangui country.

He promised Jiang Jiang to go back to accompany him before the exam. A few days ago, Jiang Jiang said that the exam date would be advanced. His son was very considerate and confessed, "Don't worry about coming back, work is important. Come back to pick me up when you are finished. I can't accompany you this year." On my birthday, I have to remember to boil eggs to eat.”

Although he was also thinking about his son's grades, he wanted to go back early.But time flew by with Palin, and the return date was forgotten.

Counting the days, now should be the time to pass the last subject and wait for the early vacation to prepare luggage.

Jiang Jiang entered school in July, and at this critical moment, not only was he not by his side like other parents, but he was also happy and carefree. He was obviously an irresponsible father.

A sense of guilt immediately hit his heart, and Li Jia really wanted to find a beach and bury his head in the ground to repent.

"Dad, where are you?" Jiang Jiang's questioning made Li Jia blush instantly, "I'm in S city." He lied reflexively.

"Didn't you say you were going on a business trip?"

"Yes, the company said they will go abroad."

"Where?" "That."

"Don't lie to me, I called your company."

"Ah?" Li Jia suddenly felt cold all over.

Jiang Jiang never called at all, not to mention that he didn't like Zhou Dazhi, even if he didn't have Jiedi, he wouldn't know Zhou Dazhi's phone number.

"Dad, you didn't live at grandma's house either."

"The company has an arrangement, and I live outside." Li Jia's forehead began to sweat, and his lips trembled involuntarily.

"Then you haven't left yet, have you?"

"Huh? Ah, of course."

"Really? That's it. I'll go there that afternoon. I'll bring you some replacement clothes. Where's the address?"

"Ah? Are you coming?"

"correct."

"Are you at grandma's house?"

"Ah."

Li Jia's blood surged up for a while, and he almost fainted.

Holding the table with one hand, Li Jia was dumbfounded.

Jiang Jiang roared, "Where are you?"

Li Jia quickly glanced at the caller's information, only to realize that although it was displayed as "home", it should be from Chang Xia.

The phone at home in S City will display "Mom"

"Why did you lie to me?" Jiang Jiang frantically kicked the luggage at his feet, and the luggage scratched two dark gray scratches on the floor.

Palin leaned out of the bathroom, "I put the bath water on me, do you want to wash it?"

Li Jia hurriedly covered the phone, but Jiang Jiang still dropped the phone.

Li Jia was so weak from the shock that his arms dropped and his phone fell on the carpet.

"What's wrong?" Perrin looked at him with concern.

Li Jia sighed, "It's okay!"

"Whose call is it?" Perrin picked up the phone and looked at the calling number.

"It's my son."

"Oh~" Pei Yao replied monotonously, not thinking it was important.

Putting the mobile phone on the counter, Palin picked up a small bottle of perfume and sprayed it on the collar of the pajamas twice, and said to the shadow in the mirror, "Kid, play your temper, just buy him some gifts."

Li Jia waved his hand feebly, not in the mood to discuss with Palin that Jiang Jiang is no longer a child.

Going around to the side of the bed, Li Jia rolled over and climbed up.

Perrin lay down and hugged him from behind, the light scent of perfume with herbaceous smell crept into the bottom of his nose.

As usual, just this familiar smell would make Li Jia involuntarily excited, but today, he didn't want it at all.

Worried about Jiang Jiang's current situation, Li Jia's heart felt like ice was being poured into fire.

Li Jia didn't want to spoil the fun, but no matter how much Palin licked his neck and provoked him with his fingers, he couldn't cheer up.

When Palin pressed Li Jia down on his body and twitched his hands violently, Li Jia only clenched his lips and closed his eyes to suffer.

The expression on Li Jia's face is both painful struggle and muscle twisting in extreme excitement. It can be said to be excessive joy or helpless dissatisfaction. Either way, it is rare to see.

Although Palin also felt that it was no fun to go on like this, his body was still so excited that he couldn't stop, and he didn't want to stop.

Li Jia is not the disgust of disgust, which makes Palin's actions even more wild.

After a few hard thrusts, Perrin turned over and lay on the side panting, feeling a sense of emptiness in his heart.

When ML is upset, when he receives a phone call from the company, he naturally wants to lose his temper, "I can't understand this matter? How did I explain it? It's okay, it won't be affected, and it's okay even if the old man comes. She can be there if she wants to, and if she wants to If you check, find out all the recent years and let her see. If the old man comes, you can say that this part was reserved for the director. Smart, don't you need me to teach you?"

While controlling the remote control, when accusing his subordinates of slow progress, Palin leaned against the head of the bed and held the cigarette between his fingertips, neither too lazy to move nor to avoid Li Jia.

The right-hand assistants are also suffering. Sonia used to only come to the company once a month, but now they seem to be in the office, so they are naturally more careful in their actions.After receiving the notification, Palin calmly analyzed for a while and felt that there was still room to be added. He put on his pajamas, walked outside, and dialed a number.

Li Jia stared blankly at the ceiling, sat up for a long time, frowning.

When Palin came back, he saw Li Jia looking pensive, with his hands resting on his side, "What's wrong?"

"Have you ever owed the company money?" Li Jia's voice was stiff, his fingers tightly clenched. "Who said that?" Palin frowned slightly.

"Then do you have any problems with your accounts?"

Perrin smiled, imitating Li Jia's way of pursing his lips and looking back, "No."

Li Jia had a serious face, and his collarbone was exposed from the ripped clothes. It was so boring to discuss such non-erotic topics on the bed full of pornography.

Seeing the ambiguous smile on Palin's face, Li Jia was anxious, "Palin, yes or no."

"Li Jia, don't be so extreme, okay? I'll let you tell me whether it's true or not, and I'll say what." Palin replied evasively, his eyes softened. "Did someone tell you something? Don't believe it."

"Then what are you doing now?"

Palin covered Li Jia's eyes with one hand, "Don't think about anything, trust me, I won't be in any trouble."

The penguins on the beach squeeze each other, walk side by side, or chase and play.

Li Jia and Palin leaned on each other closely, and the warmth they absorbed from each other was short-lived but worthy of nostalgia, as if they had no one else in the world.

"I really wish I could become a seabird." Li Jia expressed his exhausted wish from his lips.

"Then you don't lose food every time?" Perrin smiled and motioned him to look at a penguin on the reef. The fish he finally caught was snatched away from his mouth by his companions, and he could only chase after it clumsily flapping his wings.

Perrin's smile deepened, "Look, so stupid, just like you."

Li Jia silently watched the penguin lose and returned, "It's so pitiful!"

For a moment neither of them spoke, but Perrin's own arms around his back held him tighter.
