thousand cups

Chapter 30

Standing and hugging is reasonable.What's wrong with the two brothers who haven't seen each other for a long time, what's wrong with the half-brother who has slept with each other, it's no problem.But... it's a bit strange to hug him to the bed as soon as he arrives.

After all, they have been in a stalemate for more than a year, and it's not easy to just meet like this.

Jiang Mo pressed Shen Chaowen and hugged him for a long time before he realized that the atmosphere was not right.

He wanted to make a joke and get away with it: "Are you so straightforward now, Shen Chaowen, you pull me onto the bed as soon as we meet."

"Then get up." Shen Chaowen said against his will.

Jiang Mo raised his arms to get up, but Shen Chaowen immediately changed his mind, grabbed his collar and pulled him towards himself, hugging him tightly with all his strength.

Why does it feel like this person has no weight.Shen Chaowen thought, he must have lost weight.

The feeling of hugging is not real at all, like hugging a dream.

Jiang Mo buried himself on his shoulder and waited for a while, feeling that Shen Chaowen's arms had loosened before he propped himself up.

Shen Chaowen turned sideways to take a few breaths, took a deep breath, sat up, and suppressed the turbulent emotions in his heart.

No one said anything, just sat on the unmade bed, Xiang Gu was silent for a while. The CD player is still playing, a love song by blur, the lyrics are very sweet.Jiang Mo thought a little funny, how to listen to this, it's a bit weird to listen like this without talking, but it's almost the same when you're doing it.

"Aren't you coming back tomorrow?"

"I wanted to come back a day early to scare my mother, but when I came back, I saw someone making my bed." Jiang Mo stood up and went to look through the closet, asking him, "Where are my bath towels? I want to take a shower." , Sitting on the plane for too long, I feel very uncomfortable."

Shen Chaowen stood up: "It's in the storage room. I'll get it, you wash it first."

Jiang Mo responded, not caring that Shen Chaowen was still in front of him, and took off his clothes to take a shower.

Shen Chaowen ran to the storage room next door to get a bath towel for him, went back and knocked on the door, and handed him a change of clothes he had found, then went back and continued to make the bed. After making the bed for a while, he remembered something. Go to the bathroom door and ask loudly, "Are you hungry? Would you like something to eat?"

"I'm not hungry, I'm just a little sleepy. I couldn't sleep on the plane...don't worry about it."

Shen Chaowen said yes, turned around to make the bed, and then went downstairs to help Jiang Mo carry the suitcase up.

After finishing the work, he was a bit bored, so he sat and waited at the desk for a while, having nothing to do, took out his mobile phone and read two work emails.

Before finishing watching, Jiang Mo came out, rubbed his hair and asked him, "My mother went to rehearsal?"

"Yes." Shen Chaowen said, "Let me pick her up in the afternoon."

"My dad left again?"

"I left in the morning."

"Tsk, I also said to hurry back and see him."

"Come back next Saturday."

Jiang Mo glanced at him, then smiled and joked: "Aren't you very busy at work, don't you just ask for leave and come back to help me make my bed?"

Shen Chaowen: "...you say yes."

It's a bit embarrassing to make this joke.

It's been a long time, and seeing him so suddenly makes me feel a little complicated.

Things get a bit more complicated when you're away from each other.It seems that I fell asleep because I couldn't help it, and the next day the conversation broke down again, and then I couldn't see each other in different places. Both of them were busy with their own lives, and couldn't find a suitable opportunity to deal with it. The problem, the relationship has become more and more chaotic, it is simply a mess.

Shen Chaowen doesn't even know what kind of relationship they have now... Maybe it's a relationship that hasn't gotten better after a night of sleep but is still entangled.

After standing awkwardly for a while, Shen Chaowen forced out a question and asked him: "You have also obtained your degree, will you return it when you come back this time?"

Jiang Mo said: "The film I told you before has finished shooting, and I plan to take a rest for a while. Let's see if there is any opportunity here before we talk about it."

Shen Chaowen nodded: "En."

Jiang Mo brushed his hair up and down, and looked at Shen Chaowen from the corner of his eye for a while... It felt that his brows and eyes were sharper again, and his temperament was more mature.

They were silent for a long time.

Shen Chaowen lowered his head and said nothing, not even daring to look at Jiang Mo.During the interval of silence, many fragments of the past flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern. There was no expression on his face, but a catastrophe occurred in his heart.

He couldn't stay any longer, he felt that if he could bear it any longer, he might show his true colors and throw Jiang Mo onto the bed.

"Aren't you sleepy? I won't disturb your rest. You should pick up your godmother in the afternoon, she should be very happy." Shen Chaowen said, "Take a nap, see you another day."

Seeing that he was really planning to leave, Jiang Mo was stunned for two seconds before remembering to grab his wrist: "Chaowen... wait."

Shen Chaowen looked back at him with a little doubt in his eyes.The moment their eyes met, Jiang Mo lost his mind for a few seconds.

This person looks too aggressive. Although he has a good appearance, but because his eyebrows and eyes are too sharp, he always gives people a feeling of inhumanity and inaccessibility.

Jiang Mo asked him, "Are you staying here tonight?"

Shen Chaowen: "...anything is fine."

Jiang Mo nodded: "Then don't go, I'll take a nap first, you can pick up my mother when I wake up, and have dinner together at night."

Shen Chaowen paused and agreed.

Stiffly, he walked downstairs and wandered around for a long time, tidying up the already tidy living room idly, rubbed the little cat Chaplin who was sleeping for a while, and sat on the sofa in a daze, feeling messed up.

When the time was almost up, Shen Chaowen found that Jiang Mo hadn't moved, so he went up to call him.When he walked to the door, he found that the door was not closed, and it was slightly covered.Shen Chaowen looked in along the crack of the door for a while, knocked twice, but there was no response.

Knock twice more, call brother, still no response.

Shen Chaowen sighed, feeling that the matter of waking him up still had to be done the same way, so he simply went in and lifted the quilt, holding Jiang Mo's shoulders and began to shake vigorously.

Jiang Mo was shaken twice before waking up. He saw Shen Chaowen in a daze, and stared at him for two seconds in a daze.

Even if some people stay up all night and drink alcohol, the background color of their eyes is still bright.Shen Chaowen once wondered why this was because this person's living habits were obviously bad, but his eyes were more radiant and beautiful than others.Anyway, after seeing those eyes, Shen Chaowen's heart softened.

I really wanted to bow my head and kiss this drowsy person... I held back after all.

Shen Chaowen dragged Jiang Mo out of the bed indifferently, "Sleep tonight, get up now and surprise the godmother... Wake up."

Getting him out of bed was hard work.

After 10 minutes, I went out and got on the bus.Sitting in the co-pilot, Jiang Mo yawned and rubbed the messy hair on his forehead.

"Hair is long, someday I will cut it." Shen Chaowen reminded him.

"Okay." Jiang Mo nodded and agreed, and took out his mobile phone to reply to the message when Shen Chaowen was on the road, "Would you like to play with me after dinner at night? You basically know Sophia and the others."

Shen Chaowen shook his head: "I don't drink, I'll just pick you up later."

Jiang Mo peeked at Shen Chaowen driving from the corner of his eye, looking at the man's slender hands on the steering wheel.

He had never seen Shen Chaowen driving a car before, and he hadn't seen it abroad. In China, he heard Shen Chaowen say that he went to take the driver's license test in his sophomore year, and this was the first time he rode in a car driven by him.It drives quite well, and it feels like an old driver.

It was as if he had become an adult in the blink of an eye.

The car turned into an alley, and Shen Chaowen suddenly said without warning: "Have you found a boyfriend before?"

...He still speaks so simply and directly.

Jiang Mo answered him: "No time."

"Where's the girlfriend?"

"I said I don't have time. I'm so busy that I don't even have time to sleep."

Shen Chaowen didn't ask any more questions, and turned on the stereo in the car. It was the Yue opera that Mei Qing liked to listen to.

He used to listen to drowsy things, but Jiang Mo became more and more awkward as he listened to them today. He always felt that the soft tune was lingering in the closed space of the car, and it actually had a somewhat ambiguous meaning...

It is estimated that the two of them are very ambiguous when they hear good luck.

Jiang Mo didn't dare to speak.I always feel that the atmosphere between the two of them meeting again is the same as breaking up once, which is quite strange.

Speechless all the way.

I picked up Mei Qing outside the theater. After seeing Jiang Mo, she performed a surprise performance and didn't react much. She pulled her skirt and sat in the back seat. After getting in the car, she said, "Take me to my uncle's company. Solve it."

Jiang Mo was puzzled: "Can't we go another day? Just come back and have a meal together."

Mei Qing said: "If you don't leave tomorrow, won't it be the same if we eat afterwards? Take me there first, mom is in a hurry to find him."

Jiang Mo glanced at Ms. Mei Qing's expression in the rearview mirror, "What's the hurry? You don't care about things over there, why did you suddenly run over there today?"

Mei Qing said: "It's not about the company, it's..." She paused, "Uncle and your little aunt have had a fight these past two days, I'll go talk to him, it's not a big deal."

Jiang Mo let out an oh, and stopped asking.

They sent Mei Qing, who was not in a good mood, to the place, watched her go away, Shen Chaowen started the car, and asked, "Go home or eat outside?"

"Anything is fine." Jiang Mo still looked at Mei Qing's back, "My mother lied to me."

Shen Chaowen nodded: "Yes. During your absence, uncle and the others often come to the house. I also find it very strange. Come down and ask the godmother, maybe she can't tell in front of me. What do you eat? Anything else is fine, whatever, It annoys you to say such words the most."

Jiang Mo withdrew his gaze and looked at him twice: "...noodles? I kind of want to eat that spare rib noodles."

Shen Chaowen nodded, and drove to the small shop where they had eaten together many times.In the past, Jiang Mo would go to that noodle shop the next day every time he was hungover, and they went there many times together.

As a result, when we arrived at the place, the store was not open, and a piece of paper was pasted, saying that the store would be closed for a period of time, and the return date was uncertain.Jiang Mo was a little disappointed. Before leaving, he went to the scallion pancake stall next door and asked, "Why didn't the uncle open the door?"

The proprietress answered him: "Kidney disease. In two days, the shop will probably be changed. She said that she will go back to her hometown for treatment."

The return date is really uncertain.Nothing will always exist, and it is impossible for a restaurant that you like to eat to always exist for yourself just because you like it.

Jiang Mo thanked him, and returned to the car with Shen Chaowen.In fact, there was no great disturbance in his heart, just a little emotion.

But Shen Chaowen guessed that Jiang Mo might be a little bit lost and sad.All he could think of was a more practical solution, and he tentatively asked, "Why don't I go home, and I'll try to make ribs noodles for you?"

Jiang Mo turned his head to look at him for a while, and couldn't help smiling.

"it is good."

After returning home, Shen Chaowen went into the kitchen and was busy for a long time. Jiang Mo watched him cook for a while, thinking of helping out, but was dismissed as too intrusive, so he could only go to the yard to play with the kitten in desperation.

When Shen Chaowen was ready to ask him to eat, it started to rain in the yard, and after a while, it became heavier and heavier.

They ate a bowl of noodles at the dining table with the sound of rain, and ate quietly. Jiang Mo didn't comment on the taste, and Shen Chaowen didn't ask him if it was good. They ate very politely and quietly.

Shen Chaowen usually didn't want to talk when he was in a mess, and seeing Jiang Mo's ambiguous attitude, he didn't know what to do.

He had already arranged a series of tactics in his mind and continued to fight wits and courage with him for several rounds, but when the person really sat in front of him, Shen Chaowen felt, forget it, it would be better not to waste time.

Jiang Mo ate more slowly. After eating, Shen Chaowen folded his hands and waited for a while, seeing him put down his chopsticks before asking: "It's been a year, have you thought it through?"

Jiang Mo looked up at him, "Yes."

"Chat?"

Jiang Mo adjusted his expression before saying seriously: "Well, okay, let's talk. I understand your demands, and I want to talk about my thoughts first."

Still appealing, where did I learn it.Shen Chaowen suppressed a smile: "Please tell me."

"I don't accept your unequal treaty." Jiang Mo imitated Shen Chaowen's usual tone, "I suggest that we draw up a new agreement."

"Okay, please tell me."

Just as Jiang Mo was about to speak, he suddenly remembered something and said, "No... wait, I'll go upstairs to get a prop, and wait."

Shen Chaowen could only sit at the dining table and wait for him to come back, staring at their noodle bowls in a daze.

Jiang Mo went upstairs and brought a red bag down. It was a crumpled French supermarket bag, and he didn't know what it contained.

He came back and sat down, put the props on the table, and said: "I can understand your original intention of making those demands, but because the deadline you gave is too vague, it is a very unrealistic quantifier, so I don't accept."

Shen Chaowen nodded, not surprised, noncommittal.Don't express your opinion, just listen to him first.

"I don't want to promise what I can't do, but I will try hard. I am willing to let you interfere in my life to the greatest extent in the future. This is my sincerity. So I hope you will not be too obsessed with an illusory concept, we We can work together to fulfill your wish. If you have wine today, you will be drunk today, and I will give you the present day that I can control."

Um.Shen Chaowen thought about it, but he actually backed down a step.

After speaking, Jiang Mo pushed the bag on the table over, "This is my gift."

Look at each other for two seconds.

Shen Chaowen frowned, opened the bag and glanced at his gift.

...a trophy?

Well, just a trophy.But why take a tattered plastic bag to put...

Seeing his confused expression, Jiang Mo briefly explained: "I won an award for a short film I made. This is the first award I won as a director. It is a precious thing to me. It has a special meaning. I want to give it to you. .” Paused, “I will send you off later.”

He only said it was an award, but he didn't say what it was, so Shen Chaowen didn't know that what he was holding was a very important award for a new director, so he put it in a supermarket plastic bag and carried it back to give it away. .

Shen Chaowen shook his head: "The trophy... I don't need it, so it's meaningless to give it to me."

How pointless.Jiang Mo frowned: "Take you as a prop to enhance the atmosphere... The point is my sincerity and sincerity, I hope you will feel it carefully." After a pause, "Experience it well."

What I feel is that even though I know it may not be suitable, I am still willing to give it a try and see what you mean.

In fact, he is still a bit evasive in nature, and they haven't really solved the problem.But it is very rare for a person with his personality to give a present.

Shen Chaowen raised his eyebrows, looked at Jiang Mo, then at the trophy, suddenly wanted to laugh.

He turned his head and endured it for a while, but he still couldn't hold back, and smiled with the corners of his mouth curled up.

Jiang Mo's face became a little hot from his smile: "Isn't your job just to negotiate with people like this? I'm using your way to accommodate you, okay... What are you laughing at! Are you laughing at the negotiation table? Not at all Unprofessional, if you were my actor, I would immediately kick you out of the set...Shen Chaowen, don’t laugh! Laugh again and reshoot!”

All right, let's give in.

Shen Chaowen immediately put away the wanton smile on his face, stood up, stretched out his hand and said to Jiang Mo, "It's a happy cooperation."
