Chapter 12 Borrow

Lin Yuanye slowly regained his language ability: "No, didn't you come?"

After speaking, he lowered his head and picked up his collar to smell it.The smell of cigarettes was already weak, and the wind at the stairs was strong, so the smell on the clothes quickly dissipated.

Cheng Liao was silent for two seconds, and glanced at his hand holding the collar without emotion, "What does Yuan Cun want from you?"

Not wanting the other party to know Yuan Cun's dirty intentions, Lin Yuanye shook his head and lied a little: "I don't know."

The other party probably believed it, and did not continue to ask.

The two went downstairs to eat one after the other.After lunch, seeing the rain outside the shed was getting heavier and heavier, the workers temporarily received the news of the suspension of work in the afternoon.

Lin Yuanye came out after drinking the water, and saw Li Ge and Baby Face squatting under the shed to smoke, Cheng Liao was standing not far away, with an unlit cigarette between his fingers.

The baby face opened its mouth to the air and spit out smoke rings. After raising its hand to poke it, it turned its head in boredom and asked, "Brother Cheng, what are you going to do for the afternoon rest?"

"Go back." Cheng Liao replied quietly.

Hearing this, Lin Yuanye walked over with a cup in his hand and asked, "Is work suspended again this afternoon?"

"Yeah, it's raining heavily again." Babyface sighed maturely, "The government has come to notify, considering the existence of potential safety hazards, if it has been raining for the past few days and there is serious water accumulation on the construction site, we will We have to wait until the rain stops to start work.”

Without thinking too much, Lin Yuanye said casually: "Isn't it good to stop work when it rains? This way you can also rest for a few days."

Babyface didn't speak, and Brother Li next to him pressed out the cigarette that was about to burn out in his hand, and his tone seemed a little distressed: "The construction site is not allowed to work, and we don't get paid."

Lin Yuanye, who had never considered the issue of salary, was stunned for a moment, and stopped asking about these things.

In the end, it was the youngest baby face, who stood up on his knees with an optimistic attitude, lowered his head and patted the cigarette ash off his pants, and said with a smile: "There is no such thing as a horoscope, so don't think about it. Since it is a holiday in the afternoon The matter has been confirmed, it is better to go back and sleep in."

"You think so? Brother Cheng." He looked at Cheng Liao with a smile on his face.

The man hummed in a flat tone, but he didn't see a big emotional change.

Guessing that Cheng Liao would probably go home to sleep, Lin Yuanye put away his thoughts of disturbing him, turned around and went back to the arbor to pack his things, and was also going to go home and sleep late.

He and Cheng Liao went home in the opposite direction, so naturally he didn't invite him to go with him.When I went back to pack the drawing board, I ran into someone planning to go to the bookstore in the town.Lin Yuanye took out a piece of drawing paper and spent a few minutes drawing a simple and easy-to-understand map for the other party.

About 10 minutes later, when Lin Yuanye came out of the construction site with a drawing board on his back, he met Yuan Cun on the side of the road with bad luck.

It was still raining heavily outside, and Yuan Cun was standing beside the street lamp smoking with an umbrella. Hearing his footsteps, he slightly raised the edge of the umbrella, revealing a pair of slightly gloomy eyes from under the umbrella. meters away and stared at him closely.

Lin Yuanye lowered the umbrella in his hand, blocking the other party's strange sight from the umbrella, turned around and walked along the way home.

There was a clear sound of stepping on the water immediately behind him.

Lin Yuanye held his umbrella and didn't look back. He took out his phone from his pocket, opened the camera software and called up the front camera.In the picture on the screen of the mobile phone, the pair of shoes worn by the person behind him soon appeared.

Those were the shoes Yuan Cun was wearing today, and the other party was following him not too far away.

Lin Yuanye realized almost immediately that it wasn't that he was unlucky when he went out, but that Yuan Cun stayed outside the door to guard him.The other party may want to take revenge on him because of the incident at noon, or maybe he just intends to intimidate him.

No matter what the reason was, Yuan Cun probably wanted to go home with him, and Lin Yuanye couldn't let him do so.

He didn't feel much panic in his heart, and even felt a little funny.When passing the zebra crossing beside the road, Lin Yuanye turned and stopped to wait for the red light to end.

Yuan Cun, who was following behind him, also stopped, and the other party threw the finished cigarette at his feet, then stared at the back of Lin Yuanye not far away, and began to chew betel nuts leisurely.

After the red light turned green, Lin Yuanye crossed the road holding an umbrella and walked towards the location of Cheng Liao's house in his memory.Yuan Cun, who was chewing betel nuts behind him, did not disappoint him, and immediately followed up.

With a happy smile on the corner of Lin Yuanye's mouth, he walked all the way to the place where Cheng Liao lived.He stopped outside the iron-gated courtyard and rang the old-fashioned doorbell hanging by the door.

When the doorbell rang for the second time, a handsome man with slightly disheveled black hair came out of the house wearing a baggy vest and big pants, stepping on a pair of slippers.

The other party took the umbrella by the washstand and opened it, stepped on the shallow puddles on the ground, reached out to open the iron door in front of him, looked down at the person standing outside the door and asked, "What's the matter?"

Lin Yuanye slowly raised the umbrella, and within a short period of time, the smile on his lips quickly disappeared, and a faint but real panic appeared on his face, "Someone is following me."

"I don't want to go home." After hesitating for a second, he explained in a low voice, "I can't think of any other place to go except you."

Cheng Liao narrowed his black eyes, stretched out his hands to rub his sleepy hair, raised his eyes over Lin Yuanye's head, and swept far behind him, his sharp eyes quickly fixed on him in the air. Yuan Cun's distinctive hanging eyes.

The next second, he withdrew his gaze with a normal face, turned sideways to make way for the people outside the door, "Come in."

Logically, he got permission from the owner of the house, but Lin Yuanye stood there without moving. He only raised his head and asked softly, "Is he still there?"

Facing his obviously disturbed but focused eyes, Cheng Liao paused slightly, "Yes."

Lin Yuanye nodded slightly, "Is it someone I know?"

There was a slight strangeness in Lin Yuanye's eyes, and then he asked slowly, "Is it Yuan Cun?"

"Yes." Cheng Liao still answered succinctly, but his gaze carried a sense of certainty. With a force that could not be ignored, he glanced at his beautiful eyebrows protruding from under the umbrella, "You guessed it a long time ago."

After a moment of silence in his words, Lin Yuanye showed a guilty look on his face, "Sorry, I lied." He explained to the man with a mixture of truth and falsehood, "I have something to hide, and Yuan Cun may like it." man."

"He likes you?" Cheng Liao accurately and sharply extracted the point he wanted to express from his vague explanation.

Lin Yuanye did not refute him.

"If he hasn't left yet," he raised his eyes again from under the umbrella, his pupils looking sincerely at the man in front of him, "can you do me a little favor?"

Cheng Liao was not a fool, he quickly guessed the meaning of his words.The man stood still with an umbrella, and replied concisely: "Yes."

Lin Yuanye lowered his head to close the umbrella, the corners of his lips hidden under the umbrella curled up secretly and happily.

He threw the packed umbrella by his feet, and ducked under Cheng Liao's umbrella. With the man's silent acquiescence, he stretched out his hands and hugged Cheng Liao.

In the small space under the umbrella, listening to the clear and continuous sound of rain falling on the top of the umbrella, the temperature unique to Cheng Liao's body gradually penetrated into the surface of his skin, making his heart feel slightly hot.

After a brief moment, Lin Yuanye let go of the hand on his waist with a natural expression, and while slowly retreating back, he thanked him in a very measured voice: "Thank you——"

Cheng Liao pinched his chin indifferently.

Lin Yuanye's voice stopped abruptly, following the strength of his fingertips, he raised his face.

The umbrella propped above the two of them was removed, Cheng Liao aimed at the position of his lips, and lowered his head slightly in the rain.

"It's just a borrowed seat, don't move," the man said.
