A Lonely Tree Becomes a Forest

What Wei Xiaolin was flipping through just now was a photo album, Chen Rui's college photo album, although the photos are well preserved, they still inevitably look a bit old.There are many photos of the young Chen Rui and the young An Zhenhe in the album, some of them alone, some with another young boy, Wei Xiaolin guessed that should be what An Zhenhe said in the mouth His other half.

In the photo album, there are stories about Chen Rui's youth that Wei Xiaolin doesn't understand and has nowhere to understand. In Wei Xiaolin's eyes, Chen Rui is childish and cautious, not like a nostalgic person, but he can keep such group photos intact.

This cognition made Wei Xiaolin's mood complicated for a while. In fact, he wanted to close the photo album the first second he opened it, but curiosity drove Wei Xiaolin to continue to look through it.He also wanted to know what Chen Rui was like when he was young, and what kind of expression Chen Rui would have when he really liked someone.

An Zhenhe is a person who can afford and let go. As early as when Wei Xiaolin didn't know anything, the relationship between An Zhenhe and Chen Rui was very natural, and it is just as natural now.It is Chen Rui who has not been able to let go of that matter. Wei Xiaolin thinks that Chen Rui should have loved Chen Rui very, very deeply, otherwise he would not have been obsessed with it for more than ten years.

But the picture in the photo album is nothing special, just like the group photos that all young people will have, they took a lot of very youthful or even immature group photos, and put them in the photo album, and there are no idol dramas that often perform, photos The commemoration and confession are solemnly written in pen on the back.

Wei Xiaolin himself also felt that he was thinking too much. Young boys are not as delicate and sensitive as the little girls in idol dramas when they fall in love.Even if it was me, I didn't leave any proof of my heart.What's more, for a person like Chen Rui, his inability to let go is more likely to come from the anger of being replaced.

"It's not because you don't know that I didn't show it to you." Chen Rui said suddenly, "It's because I feel ashamed."

Wei Xiaolin quickly realized what Chen Rui was talking about. He bit the tip of his chopsticks and said to Chen Rui, "Is it embarrassing not being together? Or is it embarrassing because you were dumped?"

Chen Rui wanted to answer his question, but he raised his head and paused for two seconds before finally saying, "Forget it, let's eat."

Wei Xiaolin didn't want to get too involved with him on this issue, so he took the initiative to change the subject and said, "How do you make so many dishes, just the two of us, can we finish it?"

Seeing that he no longer pursued the issue of the photo album, Chen Rui breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Wei Xiaolin, "You don't understand that, it's a solemn thing to invite people to dinner, and you have to do even numbers when cooking, huh?"

Wei Xiaolin smiled: "You guys are really particular about your age."

Chen Rui was ridiculed by Wei Xiaolin for being too old, but he was not annoyed, instead he asked with interest: "Then you are young, don't you also eat with relish?"

Wei Xiaolin snorted and said, "That's because the plane food is too bad, and you invited me to eat on your own initiative."

Hearing what Wei Xiaolin said, Chen Rui fell silent instead. He was quiet for a while, watching Wei Xiaolin bury his head in his meal, wandering in the sky and thinking for a while, then suddenly said: "Have you thought about it? Why would I bring you to my house for dinner?"

Wei Xiaolin stopped moving his chopsticks to pick up the short ribs, and said inexplicably, "Didn't you bring me here yourself? How many times do you have to ask this question? You have to repay your kindness repeatedly after eating your meal?"

Chen Rui was a little embarrassed to speak, he wanted to speak several times, and Wei Xiaolin was even more puzzled, until Chen Rui finally put down his chopsticks and said, "That's because... because you once wanted to treat me to a meal."

Chen Rui suddenly brought up the old things, Wei Xiaolin was a little dazed for a while, he has been busy with work these years, and he has very little energy to think about the past when he was addicted to love.Chen Rui's words were like a plectrum, stirring up Wei Xiaolin's long-silent memory of the past, buzzing, reverberating, so Wei Xiaolin also chuckled lightly, and put down his chopsticks.

"It's fine, what are you talking about? I don't even remember it." Wei Xiaolin said.

Chen Rui turned to look at Wei Xiaolin, and asked him, "Do you really want to remember? But I don't want you not to remember."

Wei Xiaolin's expression turned cold, he turned his face away and said, "Suddenly talking about this, I don't even feel like eating anymore."

Chen Rui could probably guess Wei Xiaolin's reaction. He persevered and said, "I didn't understand before, but now I know. I regret missing that meal, so let me supply you now."

Wei Xiaolin was quiet for a while, and then sneered: "You are always like this. When you do these things, don't you think I need it? I don't, I don't need the meal you gave me, and I don't need the late one. Love. Because I don't like you now, and I don't want to try to accept you, try to start over, I have more important things to do. How many times do you want me to say that?"

Chen Rui stood up, he went to open a bottle of wine, turned around and poured himself a glass, took a big sip, and said, "I know, I know you won't accept me now, and I also know that I missed a lot before. But you Do you think I have never thought about giving up? I have thought about it countless times. When I tossed and turned and couldn’t sleep in the middle of the night, when I heard that you went to record a program with Ke Xing day and night, I thought otherwise, let’s forget it. My struggle is still What's the point?"

Chen Rui took a big sip of wine, rubbed the wine glass, and said in a low voice: "But people are always like this. When it is easy to get it, they feel indifferent, and when they can't get it, they feel like this. Not reconciled, why?"

Wei Xiaolin took the bottle, poured some more for Chen Rui, and said, "No reason, I don't think you need to do this, you obviously have a better choice, and you have to be entangled with me, I don't want to discuss with you what you did. Sincerely or not, but don't you really feel like you're bothering me and causing yourself unnecessary pain?"

Chen Rui took another sip of the wine Wei Xiaolin poured for him, laughed dryly, and said, "Yes, I have brought you trouble, what can I do, I also want you to be happy when you see me, don't As soon as you see me, you'll be sullen and reluctant, but it's not that simple to give up, so why should I give up?"

Wei Xiaolin didn't answer, just sat silently at the dining table and watched Chen Rui drink one cup after another.Wei Xiaolin also felt panicked in his heart, Chen Rui expressed his heart in front of him more than once, this time he even said that he would pay back the meal owed to Wei Xiaolin back then, Wei Xiaolin should feel elated, but he didn't.

Wei Xiaolin didn't forget the one he deliberately forgot, the time when Chen Rui called him to come and go, the first time he felt extremely depressed and heartbroken, Wei Xiaolin didn't forget it, and he wouldn't forget it either.When Chen Rui mentioned it again, he felt that the previous wound was not healed. The ugly scar was always there, but he covered it tightly. Now that Chen Rui opened it, the pain came again.

Wei Xiaolin didn't want to stay at Chen Rui's house anymore, he rubbed his painful temples, stood up, and said, "Drink less wine, I'm leaving."

Before reaching the door, Wei Xiaolin was hugged vigorously from behind by Chen Rui. Chen Rui buried his head on the side of his neck and said in a low voice, "Don't go, don't go." Sorry, sorry, don't go."

Wei Xiaolin was a little suffocated, he let Chen Rui hold him stiffly, and said in a low voice, "It's so disrespectful to pretend to be drunk, let go, Teacher Chen."

But Chen Rui didn't let go, he still hugged Wei Xiaolin tightly, Wei Xiaolin couldn't break free, sighed to the sky, and said helplessly: "Then I will help you go to the bedroom to sleep in the head office."

Chen Rui raised his head, Wei Xiaolin turned his face to meet his eyes, after watching for a while, he confirmed that Chen Rui was really drunk, it stands to reason that Chen Rui's drinking capacity is not so bad, maybe he was really stimulated by him.Chen Rui's eyes were confused and chaotic, and his brows were deeply frowned. If any audience saw his expression on the big screen, he would be bewitched by Chen Rui. Even Wei Xiaolin couldn't say anything serious. I repeated it again, asking Chen Rui to go to the bedroom to sleep.

Chen Rui hesitated for a while, then walked around to Wei Xiaolin, grabbed Wei Xiaolin's wrist, and walked towards the bedroom with a dull head.

Wei Xiaolin was staggered by him, and said helplessly from behind: "I meant to take you to sleep, not to sleep with you." After he finished speaking, he also felt absurd, rolled his eyes and cursed, "Fuck!" Although he didn't know if Chen Rui could receive the scolding.

The bed in Chen Rui's bedroom is very big, and the quilt on one side of the bed is folded up, which seems to be the side where Chen Rui often sleeps, but Chen Rui did not lie down, he went around to the other side first, lifted the quilt, and motioned for Wei Xiaolin Lie down on the bed.

Wei Xiaolin gritted his teeth and sighed, and said word by word: "You! You! You! Sleep!" He comforted Chen Rui like a child, and said: "Lie down and sleep, I will make honey water for you, Um?"

After Wei Xiaolin said this, he was already cursing in his heart. Chen Rui, who he wanted to be drunk, was too difficult to deal with, and he complained in his heart that Chen Rui was so mentally retarded when he was drunk. How did he sleep with him in the first place? Then he snorted coldly With a sound, I thought that Chen Rui was not drunk at all at the time, only he was drunk, Chen Rui did it on purpose, and the next day he pretended to be a dog and handed his business card, hiding his evil intentions.

Thinking of this, Wei Xiaolin didn't have a good face towards Chen Rui. He pushed Chen Rui to lie down on the bed, covered his head with the quilt and wanted to leave, but Chen Rui still pulled him, and felt that Wei Xiaolin was about to leave When it was time, he tore off the quilt covering his face, and firmly grabbed Wei Xiaolin's wrist.

Wei Xiaolin kicked Chen Rui's bed angrily, and scolded: "Are you drunk or not! Are you pretending to be drunk to lie to me?"

But Chen Rui didn't move again, and found that Wei Xiaolin was pulled twice by him to stop leaving, and Chen Rui fell asleep in peace.As soon as Wei Xiaolin tried to break free, Chen Rui was about to clenched his wrist. Wei Xiaolin was so angry that he had a headache, so he could only sit down on the side of the bed aggrieved by Chen Rui's posture of pulling him.

Wei Xiaolin thought to himself, if he had known that he was so aggrieved, he might as well just lie on the bed and sleep. After being a wild man in the mountains for a few days and then taking a bumpy flight all the way to the ground, and now he is going to be an escort, it is a loss-making business. .

After fighting with Chen Rui for a long time, Wei Xiaolin was too tired, he couldn't open his eyes for a long time, and finally he didn't have to work hard, even lying on the bedside, he fell asleep quickly.
