sickness

At night, Zang Bai received a call from Yu Youxing.

"Brother Bai, are you asleep?"

"Not yet, what's the matter?" Zang Bai turned on the bedside lamp and sat up from the bed.

I just heard the gasping over there: "It's nothing, it's just that the three brothers are all drunk tonight, can you come and pick up Brother Lin?" Before Zang Bai could answer, he heard Yu Youxing yelling, "Hua Xiaohao , your mother, run again... stop..."

Zang Bai pressed the center of his eyebrows: "Give me the address, and I'll come right over."

"Okay... I don't want to disturb your rest, but..."

"It's okay, you look at the three of them first."

After hanging up the phone, Zang Bai got up, put on two thick clothes, and went out.

There is also the cold spring, even if it is still during the New Year's Eve, there are no people on the street in the middle of the night.

He galloped all the way, not knowing what he was in a hurry for.He has seen Lin Bochuan drunk many times, and he is not too demented, but he is more coquettish than usual.According to Zang Bai's thinking, it should be the natural expression of the lowered self-control ability after drunk.He has also seen Hua Xiaohao drunk, especially excited and noisy.Only Hua Lihui didn't know what it was like to be drunk.

Soon, he arrived at the location sent by Yu Youxing, which was a restaurant near the State-owned Assets Bureau in the old city.

The restaurant has been old for a long time, looking from a distance, the appearance is still the exaggerated ornate decoration of the early years, full of feasting and feasting.Zang Bai slowed down the speed of the car, and on the side of the road about a hundred meters away from the restaurant, he saw Hua Xiaohao who was leaning on the lamppost and vomiting, and Yu Youxing who was holding water and paper next to him.

He rolled down the window: "How about it, do you want to help?"

"Ah, Brother Xiaobai, you are here...I don't need it, Brother Lin and the others are still in the lobby of the restaurant."

It was deserted outside, but it was a different scene inside the restaurant. When Zang Bai entered, first a wave of heat mixed with various smells hit his face, making him frown involuntarily.

He soon saw Lin Bochuan and Hua Lihui in the rest area.

Lin Bochuan was so drunk that he seemed to have lost consciousness, his whole body was leaning on Hua Lihui's body.Hua Lihui leaned on the handrail next to him, barely able to catch him, his face was red, and he was obviously drunk.

Next to Hua Lihui was a man sitting upright. If I remembered correctly, this should be Director Wu's secretary, surnamed Cao.

Secretary Cao saw Zang Bai first, and immediately stood up: "Mr. Zang, you are here." Pointing to Lin Bochuan next to him, "I am happy today, everyone drank a few more glasses. Our director is too drunk to wake up. Send it home, and leave me here to watch."

"It's really troublesome, Secretary Cao."

"fine."

Hua Lihui saw Zang Bai first, his drunken eyes seemed to wake up, and he quickly pushed Lin Bochuan aside.Seeing that no one was moving, they all hugged him and explained to Zang Bai with their tongues out: "He is completely drunk."

Zang Bai squatted down, raised the man's face and shook it: "Lin Bochuan, wake up, you're home."

The man opened his eyes and focused for a moment in a trance. It took a while before he recognized Zang Bai. He called out "wife" softly, then put his hands on his shoulders, and the man immediately clung to him: "Honey, I feel bad..."

Seeing this scene, Secretary Cao turned his face away and smiled.

Zang Bai propped Lin Bochuan up: "Secretary Cao is laughing."

"Ahem, the two of you are really close as husband and wife."

Zang Bai smiled and nodded: "Please ask Secretary Cao to help Manager Hua."

Hua Lihui stood up unsteadily, "I, I'm fine."

Several people went out of the gate of the restaurant, Yu Youxing also got Hua Xiaohao to the door, but the boy was too noisy, Yu Youxing was so angry that he "punched and kicked" him to restrain him, and pushed him into the car.

Zang Bai sent Lin Bochuan to his car, exchanged pleasantries with Secretary Cao, and sent him away, leaving Hua Lihui alone.Yu Youxing struggled to serve Hua Xiaohao alone, and it was really difficult for him to get into Zang Bai's car, so he said he would take a taxi home.

"It's late, it's not easy to take a taxi, let's take our car back." Zang Bai invited again.

The more he refused, the more he showed his guilt. Hua Lihui got into the car.

Lin Bochuan, the co-pilot, hummed all the way, yelling "wife" and "Ruirui" all the way, or screaming uncomfortable.Seeing him sitting on the chair and twisting non-stop, Zang Bai peeled off his collar and saw that there were red rashes all over the bottom, which was not uncomfortable.

"Ruirui, I'm not feeling well..."

"Just bear with it for a while, I can deal with it for you when I get home."

Lin Bochuan leaned against the back of the seat with his face sideways, looked at Zang Bai in the driver's seat and nodded, but within a minute, he yelled again: "Honey, I'm itchy... I feel bad... Wife..."

Hua Lihui was not so drunk, but his mind was dizzy and he couldn't walk in a straight line. He was still conscious.

He remembered the first time he and Lin Bochuan drank secretly in junior high school. He was more able to drink than the two of them. Lin Bochuan thought he was naive, but actually fought with him secretly. In the end, both of them passed out drunk in the boys' dormitory.

Later, on Xiaohao's birthday, at the graduation banquet, on his birthday, on a certain day after Lin's father was buried, on the first day he went abroad... Lin Bochuan got drunk many times in front of him.Hua Lihui always thought that he would only become more silent when he was drunk, just like today, he kept silent and leaned on his shoulder silently, waiting to go home and go to bed.

It was the first time I knew that Lin Bochuan would hum and act like a baby when he was drunk.He has known Lin Bochuan for more than 20 years, and it is also the first time he knows that this man who does not often show his emotions will act like a baby.

Hua Lihui silently turned his face out of the car window, and the scenery along the way suddenly became somewhat blurred.

He felt sour at the corners of his mouth, and couldn't help but want to curl it down.He always thought that even in the position of friend and brother, he was special here in Lin Bochuan.They spent so much time together, he always thought that he was the person who knew Lin Bochuan the best, better than anyone else in the world.Maybe one day, no matter where he is, no matter who he is with, he will think that Hua Lihui is the person who understands me best in this world.This may be enough for the self who loves him in the far corner.

Hua Lihui didn't know until today that this was not the case.He seems to have never really understood Lin Bochuan, because his most private side has never been shown to himself.

His weakness, his coquettishness, his moaning... All of these are the self that he never shows others easily, but only presents to his lover.

How much of himself is he only presenting to Zang Bai?His love, his desire, his love and cherishment... There are too many for that one person.Just because Hua Lihui was not the right person, he would never be able to truly understand Lin Bochuan.

At this moment, Hua Lihui felt that he was just a humble smile who moved himself.

"You asked for it." Lin Bochuan kept moaning, and Zang Bai was a little impatient when he drove the car, so he had to park the car on the side of the road first, untie the clothes for Lin Bochuan, and let the rash dry to cool off. Can be a little less itchy.

Zang Bai went to untie his clothes, and Lin Bochuan's arms were naturally wrapped around him.Zang Bai put his hand away: "You know you can't eat chili, do you think you deserve it..."

Lin Bochuan was sensitive to Zang Bai's faint anger, stopped immediately, and obediently admitted his mistake: "...I was wrong..."

"It's hard to do whatever you want on that occasion." Hua Lihui explained for him.

Zang Bai didn't know, he just felt sorry for Lin Bochuan not caring about his body.

"It's because I didn't take good care of you..."

"Don't say that, Manager Hua has already done enough." After Zang Bai said this, he restarted the car.Lin Bochuan settled down, so he speeded up to Hua Lihui's residence.

For a moment, Hua Lihui couldn't tell whether there was any subtext in Zang Bai's words, so he didn't argue anymore.

Perhaps Lin Bochuan would be questioned, and the two might even quarrel because of him, but Hua Lihui didn't care much about it anymore, and there was no need to explain it repeatedly for him.

The real estate crisis was about to pass, and he knew he had to leave, but he couldn't make up his mind to leave until now.However, at this moment, he suddenly made up his mind.

After loving someone for more than ten years, no matter how hopeless, he thought that he would continue to love like this for the rest of his life.If there is a day when you don't love, it must be vigorous and heart-piercing.However, when it really came, he himself did not expect it to be such an ordinary and ordinary night, and the moment he decided not to love was so silent, he didn't even have the urge to shed tears except for a moment of sadness for his own humbleness.

Just like when he silently started to love Lin Bochuan, he also silently ended his love for him.

When they arrived at the downstairs of Hua Lihui's apartment, Zang Bai helped Lin Bochuan take him upstairs.Standing in the corridor, the two were silent for a while, Hua Lihui said, "Thank you."

"Well, you go to bed early, what's the call?"

Hua Lihui nodded.

Zang Bai didn't have much to say, and was about to leave, when Hua Lihui said, "The affairs of Chuan'er Company are getting smoother, and I plan to resign with him after the Spring Festival holiday."

"Well... you've worked hard all this time."

Coming out of the apartment, Zang Bai dragged Lin Bochuan all the way for the second half of the journey, got out of the car and vomited, and when he finally got home, it was already two o'clock in the morning.

Next was washing and feeding medicine. When Zang Bai knelt on the bed and applied anti-itch ointment to Lin Bochuan's red spots, the man had already woken up more than half of his wine, and only Zang Bai's eyelids were sleepy. Fighting, I can hardly keep my eyes open.

Lin Bochuan watched him nod suddenly, squeezed out a large portion of the plaster from the medicine tube.Some couldn't help but laugh, and they were a little soft-hearted. In short, it was like a ball of cotton was padded in the heart, and it became infinitely soft.

He took off the ointment, supported the man's shoulders, let him fall, lay sideways in his arms, and turned off the light.

"Go to sleep when you're tired."

"Ah."

Lin Bochuan leaned against his ear and kissed him: "Ruirui, I love you so much."

Zang Bai was really sleepy, half of his consciousness couldn't bear this sleepiness, and he fell into sleep, but the half that was awake still didn't forget to remind him: "Don't hug me so tightly, the ointment rubbed against me."

"It doesn't matter."

"Is it still itchy?... Is it still uncomfortable..."

"It doesn't itch anymore, you go to sleep."

"Um……"

The breathing of the person in his arms was getting longer and longer, Lin Bochuan thought he had fallen asleep, and when he couldn't help but bowed his head to kiss him, he suddenly heard the sleeping person whispering unconsciously.

"Lin Bochuan, why didn't you choose Hua Lihui back then, he loves you so much?"
