Thousand Willows

With the arrival of summer, these students who have just graduated are always in a trance, as if it is time for summer vacation again.However, after graduating and working, there is no summer vacation. For wage earners, if you have weekends, you are lucky. How can you count on summer vacation, and you are not a teacher.Thinking about it, Jiang Yi shifted his eyes from the screen on the workstation, and turned to the vast world outside the office building.

After get off work, colleagues in the company have almost left one after another.

Jiang Yizhong is still working overtime in the company.

He just didn't want to go back so early.

He only left a row of lights above his head, and it was dark everywhere, and outside the floor-to-ceiling windows was a colorful world.

On his face, there was only the faint blue light projected from the screen.

Time passed bit by bit, Jiang Yizhong didn't eat dinner, and he didn't feel hungry.He got up, walked out of the work station, out of the company's glass door, and went to the public toilet in the office building.

Just as Jiang Yizhong walked out of the door, he was choked by the smell of cigarettes coming from the end of the corridor.

This office building is non-smoking, and the security guard hasn't come over yet, which means that this person hasn't smoked for long.

Jiang Yizhong ignored this person and went into the bathroom.

When he came out of the bathroom, the smoker had already left.

Jiang Yizhong always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell.

After working overtime until ten o'clock, Jiang Yizhong packed up his things and left the company. However, he got off the elevator and went to the lobby of the office building. In the leisure area at the corner of the lobby, he saw a familiar figure sitting on the sofa, flipping through a magazine.

It was Liu Minhui.

Liu Minhui at this time is much more mature and stable than when he was in college.Although he is also dressed casually, his aura is completely different from the youthful one when he was studying.The slight baby fat on his face has also faded away, his complexion is not as fair and tender as when he was in college, and he is more haggard and vicissitudes.His brows were furrowed more tightly than ever, and his lips were also tightly pursed. It seemed that he must be very restless at this moment.

Seeing Liu Minhui, Jiang Yizhong felt mixed emotions in his heart, overwhelmed.The scenes between the two of them played back before his eyes like a movie.

Jiang Yizhong wanted to sneak away, so he tiptoed towards the door, breathing carefully, trying not to make a sound.

When he just walked out of the office building and let out a big breath, he was stopped by a voice behind him.

"Jiang Yizhong."

It was Liu Minhui's voice, even his voice changed a lot, it was deeper and softer.Liu Minhui is like a cellar of wine, time to him is brewing.

Jiang Yizhong ignored it and quickened his pace.

The people behind caught up.

Jiang Yizhong was almost running.

The people behind are also running.

The two chased for a while, and when they were approaching the road, Jiang Yizhong was stopped by Liu Minhui.

"Don't go, just talk to me." Liu Minhui said.

Along with the wind, Jiang Yizhong smelled the smell of tobacco on his body.

"Long time no see." Jiang Yizhong said with a smile, sweat all over his body.

This summer is really hot, Jiang Yizhong felt uncomfortable with the wet shirt sticking to his back.

But what made him even more uncomfortable was the man standing in front of him that made people want to avoid his eyes.

"Why don't you go to my house?" Liu Minhui was also sweating at this moment.

Jiang Yi laughed again, and said, "Let's go to my place, the house I rent is right in front."

The house that Jiang Yizhong rented was indeed very close to his place of work, and the rent was not cheap. It was a small apartment of only more than 30 square meters.

The room is fairly tidy, with one bedroom, one living room and one bathroom. There is no kitchen, but there is an induction cooker.

After closing the door, Jiang Yizhong was hugged by Liu Minhui, both of them were covered in sweat.

Liu Minhui wanted to kiss him, but Jiang Yizhong avoided him.

Jiang Yizhong broke free from Liu Minhui's arms, closed the window, and turned on the room's air conditioner.

"The electricity bill here is too expensive, so I always spend more time on the air conditioner in the company." Jiang Yizhong explained with a smile, and he pretended that what happened just now had never happened.

Liu Minhui sat on the chair, looked at him, not knowing what to say.

"I'll go take a shower first, and watch TV by yourself." Jiang Yi found some clean clothes, turned on the TV, and handed the remote control to Liu Minhui.He went into the bathroom and locked the door behind him.

Leaving Liu Minhui in the room, he listened to the sound of the TV and the rushing of the water.

When Jiang Yizhong came out of the bathroom wearing white short sleeves and khaki shorts, Liu Minhui said goodbye to him.

"It's getting late, you go to bed early, I'll come see you tomorrow." Liu Minhui left after saying this.

Jiang Yi left with a smile and closed the door.

He turned on the TV loudly, turned on the faucet and shower, took off his glasses and put them beside the bed.

Lying on the bed, wept.

Liu Minhui was waiting for the elevator outside, when he heard the sound of TV and water coming from Jiang Yizhong's room.

The elevator is coming.

The elevator is gone.

Early the next morning, Jiang Yi changed his clothes and went out.As soon as he opened the door, he saw Liu Minhui.

Liu Minhui's clothes were not changed, and the smell of cigarettes was very strong.And he looked tired and his eyes were red.

"You..." Jiang Yizhong didn't know what to say.

"I said I came to see you today." Liu Minhui said with a grin. With his smile, Jiang Yizhong seemed to see on his face the appearance of Liu Minhui bragging about himself with exercises when he was in college.

"I'm going to be late, let's talk about it after get off work." Jiang Yizhong didn't know what expression to use to face this person, he thought for a long time, but in the end he was not ready for any expression.

"Okay." Liu Minhui said.

In the end, Liu Minhui followed Jiang Yizhong all the way to the downstairs of the office building.

"Don't follow me anymore." Jiang Yizhong said, "Go back and rest too."

"Yes." Liu Minhui agreed.

Jiang Yizhong was not in the mood for work at all, and the reunion with Liu Minhui made him at a loss.There seemed to be a ball of wool that could not be untied in his head.

"Jiang Yizhong, come and get your takeaway!" The little girl at the front desk sent Jiang Yizhong a WeChat message.

"Mine?" Jiang Yizhong was surprised, he didn't order takeaway.

"Yes, breakfast, pancakes, fruit and soy milk. Brother Zhan, why have you started ordering breakfast takeaway? Hurry up and get it, go to the opposite corridor to eat, don't be discovered by the boss!" The girl at the front desk is very caring, the company's regulations prohibit Eat at the office.

Jiang Yizhong stood in the corridor on the other side, holding his breakfast, and saw the note pinned to the bag. The name and address were correct, only the phone number was not his own.

this phone number?

Jiang Yizhong dug out the phone's address book, and it turned out to be Liu Minhui's number.

Jiang Yizhong was filled with guilt.

At the beginning, it was clearly him who started the game, and in the end it was him who unilaterally terminated the game.

He, the instigator, began to live an ordinary life.But the victim was...distorted by himself...

Jiang Yizhong ate the pancake fruit, remembering that when he was taking the postgraduate entrance examination in college, he always ate breakfast in a hurry.Either buns or porridge, or sesame balls or spring rolls.He was too lazy to wait for a pancake to be ready slowly, but Liu Minhui was willing to wait for a long time at the pancake window in the school with the longest queue in order to eat a delicious pancake.At that time, the two of them could still joke about each other, looking forward to succeeding in the postgraduate entrance examination and embarking on a different life path.

Jiang Yizhong wants to study psychology so that he can be a teacher in the future, and he can also do some psychological counseling to earn some extra money.

Liu Minhui wanted to study civil engineering and then go to work in a real estate company so that he wouldn't have to go back to his mother.

It was a beautiful and innocent thought at that time.

On the day of the exam, when the last exam is over.

Jiang Yizhong took back the phone and turned it on.

Received a message from Ge Xiaofei.

"let's break up."

Jiang Yizhong was actually prepared in his heart, but it still caught him off guard.

"Can we not break up?" Jiang Yizhong replied.

"No. You can't give me the life I want, so don't delay me anymore." Ge Xiaofei's reply was like a knife, slashing Jiang Yizhong's throat one after another.

Jiang Yizhong felt that his throat was particularly uncomfortable.

I don't want to say anything.

He recalled things from a long time ago.

Jiang Yizhong's father died shortly after he was preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination.

The family's property and inheritance were basically taken by the younger brother who worked at home.The mother was already partial to the younger brother, and Jiang Yizhong was at school, so when she got the news, the matter on the father's side had already been settled.When he got home, he realized that everything had changed. The so-called blood is thicker than water, in front of money, it was all an illusion.

Jiang Yizhong was hit hard, and he confided in his girlfriend Ge Xiaofei.

Ge Xiaofei gave him warm comfort.

However, Ge Xiaofei felt strange after that. He knew in his heart that this woman was a vampire in essence, but he didn't know why, but he just couldn't do without this vampire.

Perhaps, Jiang Yizhong knew that even if Ge Xiaofei was a vampire, as long as he still had blood on his body, he would not leave him.

"Yi Zhong, that handsome guy across from your study room seems to be Liu Minhui." Once again Ge Xiaofei inadvertently told him about the man across from him.

"Who is Liu Minhui?" Jiang Yi asked again.

"We are famous as a rich second generation in this class, and he is handsome and not playful." Ge Xiaofei said.

"Oh." Jiang Yizhong wanted to end this topic. For a man, he hates talking about other men who are better than himself with his girlfriend.

"I have no other meaning..." Seeing Jiang Yizhong like this, Ge Xiaofei quickly explained.

"I know." Jiang Yizhong said, but he felt somewhat disgusted with Liu Minhui in his heart.

So when Liu Minhui started to borrow a pen from him, Jiang Yizhong had other plans in mind.

Why even though Liu Minhui borrowed pens from him many times, Jiang Yizhong never said to give him the pens, each pen was only one yuan.It is to let the man opposite him approach him more actively and make himself appear more passive.

Until the time when he borrowed the meal card, Jiang Yizhong decided to invite Liu Minhui to eat, and let Liu Minhui owe him a favor, and for the meal, he owed him back and forth, and he always wanted to eat together.In this way, the interaction between the two people can be increased.

Jiang Yizhong's calculation was very shrewd, he made Liu Minhui feel that the other party approached him on his own initiative, and he was just an innocent lamb.

Jiang Yizhong and Liu Minhui got closer to monitor him better.

It's a bit ugly to say that surveillance, or in other words, is to guard against him.

Jiang Yizhong knew that his girlfriend Ge Xiaofei was not as beautiful and kind-hearted as outsiders saw, but a thoroughly materialistic woman. At that time, he didn't have so much money to support this woman, but this woman might find a new support By.Since Ge Xiaofei mentioned Liu Minhui, it meant that she might have thought about him.

It's better to keep Liu Minhui under his nose than in case he is suddenly cheated one day.

Jiang Yizhong was thinking like this, and he got closer and closer to Liu Minhui.

Until that day...

On the Mid-Autumn Festival that day, a group of people went to watch the moon.

He drank too much and was sent back to the dormitory by Liu Minhui.

When he woke up, Jiang Yizhong found Liu Minhui sleeping beside him. At that moment, Jiang Yizhong found that he had a physiological reaction.

Jiang Yizhong was terrified.

But a part of his heart began to stir.

Later, at the dinner with his juniors and juniors, Jiang Yizhong intentionally "performed" in front of Liu Minhui and kissed Ge Xiaofei in public.He wanted to try Liu Minhui's reaction. Although he was very disdainful of his behavior and felt like a red apricot branch trying to get out of the wall, he still couldn't help it.

However, the result made him a little disappointed, Liu Minhui was no different from other men.

Why are you disappointed?Jiang Yizhong was a little flustered, he didn't know whether he was curious, or he had already begun to empathize with someone else.

But Jiang Yizhong knew that Ge Xiaofei actually already had a "spare tire", and being with him temporarily was just pity for himself and didn't want to interfere with his postgraduate entrance examination.

So after coming out of the examination room, Jiang Yizhong was prepared when he received Ge Xiaofei's message.

It's just that the pain is more real when it actually happens.

Ge Xiaofei didn't go back to school for a few days.

And Liu Minhui went to the carnival with their classmates.

Jiang Yizhong felt extremely lonely.

It seems that the whole world, only he is redundant.

He ran to the mountains and stayed from morning till night.

The cold wind did not wake him up, but made him dizzy.

When Liu Minhui found him at night, he thought he might be crazy.

It was Jiang Yizhong who took the initiative to tease Liu Minhui, and he was the one who confused the man with a bright future in front of him. From the beginning to the end, he was the one who was fishing with a line.

After one night, Jiang Yizhong regretted it.

Jiang Yizhong doesn't want to be a so-called "homosexual", and he can't accept other people's strange eyes.

Moreover, he can still love women.

So, he escaped.

He ran away, fled back to Ge Xiaofei's arms, showed weakness to this woman, and took advantage of the woman's weakness of "soft heart" to hold Ge Xiaofei hostage until graduation.

After graduation, we broke up.

Jiang Yizhong really couldn't give Ge Xiaofei the life he wanted.

However, Ge Xiaofei helped him through the most difficult time.

Jiang Yizhong was still very grateful to Ge Xiaofei.
