Face Blindness Observation Report
Chapter 31 (1)
He Taisui drank a few glasses of red wine, and when his stamina picked up, he was so dizzy that he didn't know where he was.
Ye Ming got up and walked in front of He Taisui, and patted his face: "Do you still know who I am?"
"Ye... Brother Ye?"
"Well, you're still awake, let's go."
"Where are you going?" Li Xiyuan asked.
"Didn't you agree to visit my collection room before, did you forget?"
Li Xiyuan twitched the corners of his mouth, he didn't forget it, but He Taisui, who he wanted to visit the most, was already so drunk, he was sure that this trip was still meaningful?
But since Ye Ming invited him kindly, Li Xiyuan couldn't refuse, so he and Ye Ming got He Taisui into the car.
As soon as He Taisui entered the car door, he fell asleep lying on the back seat, and Li Xiyuan sat on the passenger seat and looked out of the car with a resentful expression.
Ye Ming asked while driving: "What are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking, next time Lao He must not be allowed to drink, this troublesome guy."
Ye Ming was in an inexplicable mood, but there was an expression of indifference on his face: "It's not troublesome, He Tai has a straightforward and cheerful personality, which is quite interesting."
"But I'm always so rash, I'm afraid he will suffer in the future."
"I'm starting to worry about his future now, have your roles been reversed?" Ye Ming's tone revealed a hint of sourness.
On the Internet, He Taisui takes care of Huamanlou everywhere, while offline, Li Xiyuan takes care of He Tai. It is hard for Ye Ming not to be jealous of the way these two get along.
Li Xiyuan was immersed in his own emotions: "To be honest, before I met you, Lao He was the only friend I could have a heart-to-heart with. Although he was a little impulsive and protective, he was very loyal. As long as he agreed to What has been done will definitely be done.”
Ye Ming couldn't grasp the point and thought, before meeting me... what about after meeting me?But he didn't dare to ask this sentence.
Li Xiyuan continued: "When I was young, I was often bullied because of my face blindness, so gradually I stopped telling people about my face blindness easily. But Lao He, I can rest assured. Tell him the truth honestly, and he also takes good care of me, he will take the initiative to say hello to me every time we meet—although in fact I can basically remember his face—from this point of view, he is actually a very nice person. Careful fellow."
Ye Ming asked quietly: "Can you remember my face now?"
"You?" Li Xiyuan looked at Ye Ming's hair, which was slightly longer than that of ordinary men, and said with a smile, "We are still at the stage of identifying hairstyles and dressing styles. If one day you suddenly cut your hair short, I'm afraid I'll just... Uh, but I will try my best to remember your face, as long as I can keep meeting frequently, I promise to remember your face within two months!"
Ye Ming naturally followed his words and said, "Then let's see each other more often. I can't remember your face anymore, so I can only hope that you will recognize me first."
Li Xiyuan stared at him suddenly and stopped talking.
Ye Ming felt hairy when he saw it, and asked, "What... are you looking at?"
"Actually... There is a way to remember the other person's face. I mean, simply remember."
Ye Ming asked curiously: "What method?"
"The kind that look like blind people."
"Relying on stroking the facial features?" Ye Ming shook his head and smiled, "Although it is a good method, unless it is a close relationship, I can't touch them one by one."
Li Xiyuan also smiled: "That's what I said, I always feel that it would be a pity if I can't see other people's faces all the time, so I want to give you some advice."
Ye Ming almost blurted out "Then let me touch it", but soon realized that this sentence is not suitable for such an occasion, so he swallowed it back.
When the topic came to this point, there was an inexplicable interruption.
Ye Ming was a little distracted by the thought that suddenly popped into his mind just now, and was embarrassed to change the subject to say something else, but he heard Li Xiyuan suddenly say: "Ye Ming, I hope...you can help Lao He .”
"What help?"
"I think you should be able to see that Lao He actually likes photography very much. He said before that he wanted to take you as his teacher, but he didn't mention it today. I think he might feel that he doesn't know you very well, so he's embarrassed Open your mouth. Don't look at him as a carefree person, but he is actually very sensitive in certain aspects. He was born in a poor family and grew up in a rural area, so he has a very strong self-esteem and is afraid of being looked down upon or rejected by others."
Ye Ming was silent for a moment, and said, "So you mean, let me take the initiative to accept him as an apprentice?"
"Perhaps my request is a bit difficult." Li Xiyuan looked at him shyly, "If it is not convenient to accept apprentices, please teach Lao He more, he may not be able to become a professional photographer as he wishes in his life. Teacher, but at least it will allow him to enjoy his remaining student days... Is this okay, Ye Ming?"
"No problem." Ye Ming suddenly hooked the corners of his mouth, and a faint smile floated up, "But I have a condition."
Li Xiyuan was overjoyed, his eyes glowed: "Whatever the condition, just say it."
"I can accept He Tai as an apprentice, or I can use the rest time to take him out to collect folk songs, but...you have to follow every time you go out."
Li Xiyuan blinked his eyes: "Why?"
"You are an intermediary, you have to be responsible to the end."
"Responsible for what?"
"All assistance matters are equivalent to... the role of an assistant, and it should be considered as paying off He Tai's tuition."
Li Xiyuan didn't know, so he asked, "Wouldn't it be better to let Lao He be your assistant?"
"Assistants are assistants, apprentices are apprentices, how can it be the same?"
"Okay then," Li Xiyuan gritted his teeth, agreed, and then stretched out his hand and said, "I signed the deed of sale, you have to hook me up, and you are not allowed to go back on your word."
Ye Ming patted his hand away and cursed with a smile: "Childish."
Ye Ming drove to the downstairs of his apartment, and after parking the car, he found that He Taisui was still sleeping.
He smiled at Li Xiyuan and said, "I wanted to invite the two of you to visit my collection room together, but He Tai slept so soundly, so don't wake him up. If He Tai wakes up later, Just call him in, and if he doesn't wake up, we can carry him to my apartment after we get out."
Li Xiyuan readily agreed, so he left the sleeping He Taisui in the car, and followed Ye Ming to his collection room.
Ye Ming's so-called collection room actually transformed the garage on the ground floor of the apartment into a darkroom.
Although digital cameras have been popularized for a long time now, some senior photographers who pursue photo quality still maintain the traditional habit of shooting with film.
The area in the darkroom is not large, but all the equipment is available. The walls are covered with various photos developed by Ye Ming with film, basically all of them are landscape photos. Li Xiyuan looked at them carefully, but in In the corner of the room, I saw the only photo of a person.
In the photo, a beautiful young woman in a long skirt is holding a five or six-year-old child, and she is looking up at this side. The smile on the corner of her mouth makes the whole photo look bright and lively.
"This is...?" Li Xiyuan pointed at the photo and looked at Ye Ming.
"This is a photo that my mother has always treasured before her death," Ye Ming explained. "The person who took the photo was my father. My father likes to take pictures, but he doesn't like to take pictures of himself, so my mother didn't keep a photo of my father."
Li Xiyuan thought about it, and asked: "I heard from you that your parents divorced when you were ten years old, but look at your mother's happy appearance in this photo, and her behavior of keeping the photo with you all the time. , shouldn’t it be the divorce caused by the breakdown of the relationship between husband and wife?”
Ye Ming nodded: "My mother loves my father deeply and hopes to have a happy family, but my father is a war correspondent, he likes to pursue a thrilling life, and he doesn't like being confined in one place for a long time - this is what caused their marriage to break down main reason."
When Ye Ming said this, he let out a soft breath: "Speaking of which, the name 'Ye Shizhao' still occupies a place in the photography world. Chen Kaifeng, the leader of our cultural team, is one of my father's friends and fans. Back then When I was about to fail in the news group, it was the Chen group who extended a helping hand and tried their best to save me from the director, and invited me to join the cultural group, giving me room to develop my talents. So some people say that I have a "backstage". , although this statement is not very accurate, but it is not wronged me."
After hearing this, Li Xiyuan was silent for a moment, and asked, "Then your father... is he still alive?"
"It should still be there."
"should?"
"After my mother passed away, he insisted on sending me alimony every month, but never gave me a call. Now that I have grown up and have my own job, he still sends me alimony regularly. The sums are huge, but those numbers don’t mean much to me anymore.”
Li Xiyuan looked up at Ye Ming, and found that the expression on his face was still very calm, just like the last time he talked about his life experience, his face was full of indifference.But Li Xiyuan can deeply understand the unknown loneliness and sadness hidden under his plain appearance.
"Ye Ming, if you don't have any relatives, can I be your relative?" Li Xiyuan's voice was particularly alluring in the silent darkroom.
Ye Ming settled down and laughed, "You want to be my family?"
"Yeah, like...brother or something." Li Xiyuan tilted his head.
Ye Ming shook his head: "I don't need a younger brother."
"Then what do you want?" Li Xiyuan joked, "Don't you want a brother? Although I'm younger than you, but because you lack love more than me, I can reluctantly role-play it."
Ye Ming couldn't help reaching out and tapping Li Xiyuan's forehead lightly: "Dream."
Li Xiyuan covered his forehead and smiled at him.
Ye Ming suddenly had a thought, and said in a low voice: "It's fine to be my younger brother...but, can I touch your face first?"
"Yes." Li Xiyuan stood still in front of Ye Ming generously.
Ye Ming raised one hand and slowly approached the other person's face, his heartbeat began to speed up uncontrollably.
He kept telling himself that he just wanted to know what Li Xiyuan looked like, whether his eyes were big, whether his nose bridge was high, whether his lips were sexy...he didn't have any other thoughts, not at all.
The moment he touched the brow bone of the other party, a sudden ringtone of the mobile phone broke the subtle and thought-provoking tranquil atmosphere. Ye Ming shook his hand, and before the touch of the skin reached his nerve endings, he Has quickly slipped from his fingertips.
"Ah, I'm sorry." Li Xiyuan lowered his head to answer the phone, only to hear He Taisui yelling inarticulately on the phone: "What about people, where did everyone go, why did you leave me alone in the car?"
"Oh, wait, I'll come out to pick you up right away." Li Xiyuan said and ran out.
crane!too!age!Ye Ming clenched his fists and took a deep breath, wishing he could chew up these three words and swallow them.

"Where's my password? Where's my password?" Chen Yining was running around in the study anxiously.
Liao Bin's voice came from far away from the kitchen: "Xiao Ning, dinner is ready."
"I can't find my password!" Chen Yining was still rummaging through the notebook in a daze, "I remember which notebook I clearly wrote down the password in..."
"What password?" Liao Bin walked over slowly, still wearing an apron around his waist.
"My QQ password!"
"What are you doing with that thing, don't you even use QQ?"
"I suddenly thought about it."
Liao Bin squinted his eyes, and there was a hint of vigilance in his tone: "Xiao Ning, what are you doing on QQ? Didn't you say that there are no friends on QQ?"
"I'm not looking for friends, I want to use QQ mailbox!"
"send email?"
"Correct."
"To whom?"
"..."
"can not say?"
"Correct."
Liao Bin's tone became a little more guarded: "Do you have any secrets that you can't tell me?"
"...Aha, um, I'm hungry, let's eat!" Chen Yining laughed and pushed Liao Bin to the kitchen.
"Hey, Chen Yining, don't be sloppy with me, who are you going to email?"
"Just... that, the thesis tutor..."
"Don't fool me, your mentor is over 60 years old and doesn't even know how to use a mouse. Can he read your emails?"
"It's a different teacher."
"Who is it?"
"I'm starving to death, eat and eat..."
"Chen Yining, if you don't make it clear to me today, don't eat."
"Damn it, is there anyone in the world who restricts other people's personal freedom like you? I can't live through this day, I want a divorce!"
"...the marriage is not over yet, why are you leaving?"
******************************
Liao Bin pressed Chen Yining, who was panting softly, kissed his ear, and coaxed him in a low voice: "Xiao Ning, be good, tell me, who do you want to email?"
"Damn it, why are you still thinking about that shitty thing during the day?" Chen Yining gasped and protested.
"You know me, I'm very curious, if you don't tell me, I won't be at peace." Liao Bin said, holding back all his energy and then moaning, "Hey, tell me the truth."
"Ah...you're going to die..." Chen Yining was stunned for a while, and had to surrender, "Okay, okay, let me say it's okay, I want to send you an email."
"Give it to me?" Liao Bin froze, "We are tired of being together every day, why do you still send emails?"
"Sexy! Do you understand the fun? It will be Valentine's Day in a few days. I wanted to write a small love letter and send it to your work mailbox to give you a surprise. Now it's all over. What else is there? mean."
Liao Bin was stunned for a moment, his voice was immediately tinged with great joy, and he smiled ingratiatingly: "It doesn't matter if you get out of the way, you tell me in advance, so I have something to look forward to."
"Hmph, I suddenly don't want to write anymore, it's so boring."
"Xiao Ning is good, my Xiao Ning is the most sensible, I will wait for your love letter."
"Don't write! I won't write if I say no!"
"Heh, if you don't write, I will toss you in different ways every night..."
"Ahh... you will die if you work harder? Ahhh, help..."
******************************
Liao Bin slowly woke up from his long and charming dream.
There was a haze outside the window, he didn't know how long he had slept, and he didn't know what time it was, he just felt groggy, his forehead felt as if he had been hit hard by someone, there were bursts of pain, his whole body was also weak and weak, I can't afford it.
He sat up with difficulty and looked around. The other side of the bed was empty and there was no trace of life.
"Xiao Ning...?" He subconsciously called out, his voice was hoarse and unpleasant, and his throat was dry and uncomfortable.
"Xiao Ning, where are you?" He was confused, and faintly felt restless.
In the past, when he drank too much because of socializing, Chen Yining was always by his side, taking care of him every step of the way, but now, he was already drunk, but where did Chen Yining go?Why ignore him?
He called again, but still got no response, so he could only get up and get out of bed, and staggered out of the bedroom.It was very dark in the living room at this time, and it was also very dark in the study, and there was a deathly silence everywhere.
Xiao Ning...isn't she at home?He rubbed his throbbing temples, stumbled into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, took out a bottle of mineral water, unscrewed the lid and poured it with his head raised.
Under the stimulation of the ice water, his brain gradually regained its clarity, and the gray memories of the scenes before he was drunk also quickly recovered.
In an instant, the mineral water bottle fell to the ground, causing a pool of water stains.
"Xiao Ning...Xiao Ning..." He lay down beside the refrigerator sobbing, in pain.

Li Yue walked outside the office door and stopped when he heard several female colleagues chattering in low voices.
"It's the eighth day, why hasn't Mr. Liao come back to work?"
"I heard that I took a week's leave. Could it be that I went to have a sweet time with his lover?"
"What? President Liao has a lover?"
"How outdated is your news? Let me tell you, Mr. Liao not only has a lover, but also a man, hehe."
"Really? So Liao is always gay?"
"That's no longer a secret, okay? Someone saw Mr. Liao entering the supermarket with his arms around a young boy. It is said that the two of them usually live together, and their lifestyle is exactly like a couple. The only thing they need to do is to get a certificate."
"However, I heard before that Mr. Liao's lover...something seems to be wrong."
"What's wrong? What's wrong? Tell me, tell me!"
Li Yue suddenly pushed the door open and went in: "Why, are you all free? Nothing to do?"
"Uh, Secretary Li." Several female colleagues fell silent in embarrassment, and dispersed to go about their own business.
Li Yue walked to the door of the general manager's office, hesitated for a moment, and then opened the door to enter.
The room was cleaned spotlessly, and the desk still looked like it did when Liao Bin was working a week ago, but its owner hadn't been here for a long time.
Li Yue sorted out the documents that needed to be signed and put them on the desk. He was silent for a moment, sighed faintly, and then turned around to go out.
At this time, there were one after another greetings outside the door——
"Morning, Mr. Liao."
"Morning Mr. Liao!"
"Mr. Liao..."
Li Yuexun looked around, and saw Liao Bin walking towards here with a briefcase in his arms, nodding to the subordinates who did not forget to say hello along the way, but there was no smile on his face, and he looked very haggard.
"President Liao." Li Yue stood still at the door of the general manager's office, and greeted him with a smile, "You are finally back."
Liao Bin nodded towards Li Yue, and asked as he walked into the office: "Is there a lot of work backlog?"
"Some tasks that can be authorized to Vice President Zhang, I have passed the relevant documents to Vice President Zhang for review, and the rest of these documents must be reviewed by you."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work during this time." Liao Bin thanked succinctly.
However, Li Yue had no intention of leaving, Liao Bin raised his head and looked at him: "Xiao Li, is there anything else?"
"...It's nothing, you are busy." Li Yue pursed his lips, turned and opened the door to go out.
The room fell silent again.
Liao Bin shook his head, forced the sadness out of his heart, and settled down to read the document, but was soon interrupted by the ringing of the mobile phone.
"Doctor Zhao?" Liao Bin answered the phone.
"Don't call me Doctor Zhao so well, you and I have been friends for many years anyway." Zhao Yong joked with a smile.
"...Doctor Zhao, what's the matter?"
"Okay, I just want to ask you, how are you doing recently? Last time at Yi Ning's funeral, I saw that you were not in a good state of mind, so I wanted to come and care about you."
"Thank you, Dr. Zhao, I have already returned to work at the company."
"Why don't you rest for a few more days, be careful that you are exhausted. Hey... Yi Ning is also my patient. Before he leaves, you are the one who is most worried about him. If you don't take good care of yourself, you will let Yi Ning The spirit of Ning Zaitian..."
"Doctor Zhao, I'm sorry, I have work to do, so I won't have a long talk with you."
"Oh, okay, then I..."
"Goodbye."
Liao Bin hung up the phone rudely without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, and then felt a burst of irritability in his heart, and the negative emotions that he had finally squeezed out before quickly returned, tumbling up and down in his mind, torturing him to the point of going crazy.
"Why do you remind me that Xiao Ning is dead? One or two of you are forcing me to forget Xiao Ning and return to normal, but what is normal? What is normal?!"
He stood up abruptly, grabbed a glass on the table, and slammed it hard on the ground, making a crisp cracking sound.
After a while, the door of the office was pushed open, and Li Yue walked in with a face of panic and asked, "Mr. Liao, are you okay?" Then his eyes fell on the glass shards on the ground, and he was a little dazed.
"Get out." Liao Bin said with a gloomy face and panted to chase away the guests.
"President Liao?"
Liao Bin shouted hoarsely: "Get out——!"
******************************
The nameless anger that Liao Bin suddenly broke out in the office shocked many colleagues on the same floor, and no one knew who had heard the gossip. It spread throughout the company.
That afternoon, Liao Bin was called to the office by chairman Hu Ruifeng to talk.
"Xiao Liao, I've heard about your lover, and I feel very sorry about it." Hu Ruifeng said his opening remarks after deliberation.
Liao Bin sat across from Hu Ruifeng with his head down, and said in a low voice, "Boss Hu, I understand what you mean. I shouldn't be angry with Secretary Li. If you think I've ruined the company's face, I can..."
Hu Ruifeng smiled and waved his hand: "No, you didn't understand what I meant. Li Yue has been with you for many years, both public and private, and he respects you very much. He has never said anything wrong about you behind your back. As for your personal Personality, in fact, is not a big secret in the company, and I have heard about it a long time ago, but I, Hu Ruifeng, always only look at talents and discuss matters on a case-by-case basis. You are a rare talent. Little things will drive you away."
Liao Bin looked up at Hu Ruifeng in puzzlement.
But Hu Ruifeng sighed: "But Xiao Liao, maybe you didn't realize that your mental state is very unstable now, do you know that? Although I am very happy that you can come back to work, if you continue to maintain Such a great mental pressure to force myself to work, I am afraid it will only be counterproductive. So Xiao Liao, I suggest you take a rest for a while. If you want, I can introduce you to a psychologist to help you through this difficult time ,what do you think?"

Liao Bin didn't want to see a psychiatrist at all.
He knew what those people were thinking. They joined forces and deliberately tried to uproot Chen Yining from his heart, forcing him to forget the past and start a new life.
But Liao Bin didn't want to do this. A life without Chen Yining's memories would be an incomplete life at all, and it wasn't the life he needed.
He would rather be drunk every day, indulge in the dream where Chen Yining appeared, and never wake up.
*****************************
"Hey, Liao Bin, why are you drinking again?" Chen Yining crouched in front of the sofa, patting Liao Bin's cheek unhappily.
"Hmm...?" Liao Bin opened his eyes and saw clearly that it was Chen Yining, so he smiled flatteringly, "Hehe, it's entertainment, they asked me to drink, I can't push it away.
Chen Yining complained with a black face: "Entertainment, entertainment, your body will be destroyed by work one day!"
"Don't be angry, Xiao Ning, come here and let me hug you."
"Go away, go away, the smell of wine is all over your body, it's suffocating to death."
"It's not the smell of wine, it's obviously the smell of wine. Come on, let's have a scent." Liao Bin said, hugging Chen Yining and blowing air on his face.
Chen Yining struggled desperately: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, you old drunkard, let me go!"
"Woo...Xiao Ning, why do you dislike me so much..."
"Hey, how old are you, and you still pretend to be pitiful in front of me?" He said, and began to pull Liao Bin's arm, "Hurry up and take a shower, don't even think about going to bed if you don't take a shower!"
"Xiao Ning, let's take a mandarin duck bath, shall we?"
"roll!"
"Then you can help me rub my back, can you?"
"I'm too lazy to serve you."
"Xiao Ning..."
"roll roll roll!"
After a few minutes.
"Xiao Ning, rub it here."
"understood."
"Xiao Ning, rub over there too."
"Know it."
"Xiao Ning, are you a man? Why are you so weak?"
Chen Yining finally couldn't bear it any longer, and tossed the towel: "I serve you kindly, but you still dislike this, I quit!"
"Xiao Ning..." Liao Bin hurriedly turned around and hugged Chen Yining's waist coquettishly, "I'm drunk, you can't leave me alone."
"Ahhh, you're wet, don't hold me like this, I'm already wet by you!"
Liao Bin bit Chen Yining's ear and laughed softly, "It's easier to do it when it's wet..."
"Liao! Bin!" Chen Yining yelled angrily, pushed away the opponent's body forcefully, turned around and walked out violently.
*****************************
With a "dong", Liao Bin rolled down from the sofa and hit his arm, causing him to grin his teeth in pain.
"Xiao Ning, I'm in pain..." He folded his arms on the ground and couldn't get up. After waiting for a while, no one helped him up while cursing as usual.
After a while, Liao Bin woke up from his trance, propped up his upper body, sat on the ground for a few minutes, and then smiled bitterly: "Why did you wake up suddenly... I almost ate it."
He sat still for a few minutes, then crawled back to the sofa, grabbed a pillow and put it under his head, muttering in his heart, wondering if he could continue to dream.
At this time, the doorbell suddenly sounded from outside the door: "Ding Dong—Ding Dong—"
Liao Bin was upset when he heard it, so he covered his ears with a pillow, trying to pretend he didn't hear it.
"Ding dong—— ding dong—" the doorbell rang persistently.
Liao Bin couldn't pretend anymore, he was so angry that he threw the pillow to the ground, and walked over angrily to open the door.
"Who is it?" The moment Liao Bin opened the door, he roared full of gunpowder.
"Uh," Li Yue, who was standing outside the door, was obviously startled by him. After a while, he said in shock, "Mr. Liao, I... I'll come and see you."
Liao Bin frowned and stared at Li Yue, impatiently: "Did Hu ask you to come?"
"No, it's me..."
"I'm fine. Hu Dong personally approved my leave. I won't go back to work for the time being. If your future is delayed because of this, you can apply for a change of guard. I have no objection."
After Liao Bin finished speaking, he was about to close the door. Li Yue plucked up the courage to support the door panel with one hand: "Mr. Liao, can you listen to me patiently?"
Liao Bin stared at him for a long time, his expression relaxed a bit.
Li Yue took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Liao, I know, I am just your secretary at work, and I have no right to interfere in your private life. But I have been with you for seven years and have learned a lot from you. , so I have always respected you very much, and I don't want... to see you waste your life because of this setback. I hope you can cheer up as soon as possible."
Liao Bin leaned against the doorpost, lowered his head and wandered in a dream, and after a while he smiled wryly: "What if my life is wasted? Xiao Ning... is gone."
"Mr. Liao," Li Yue couldn't stand it anymore, grabbed Liao Bin's shoulder and shook it vigorously, "What can I say to wake you up? Your lover has passed away. This is an unchangeable fact. You lock yourself up at home every day to remember the past, and you can't change his dead..."
"Shut up!" Liao Bin yelled suddenly, making Li Yue take a step back in fright, "Secretary Li, although Xiao Ning is dead, he has always lived in my heart," he pointed to his heart, " Just in this position, I have been living all the time, every frown and smile, everything is vivid in my eyes, do you understand? So, don’t say lightly that you forget the past and start over, I can’t do it, and I don’t need you to sympathize with me or interfere with me ,I do not need!"
After Liao Bin finished speaking, he slammed the door shut with a bang.

"Liao Bin, Liao Liao, Bin Bin, Xiao Bin, Bin'er..." Chen Yining's voice kept ringing in his ears.
Liao Bin couldn't bear to cover the quilt: "Xiao Ning, don't disturb me, I worked overtime last night until two o'clock in the morning, let me sleep for a while."
"No," Chen Yining jumped up and down on the bed, "Today is the sixth anniversary of our acquaintance, you promised me that you would spend this anniversary with me, you can't go back on your word!"
Liao Bin lifted the quilt suddenly: "What? Today is the anniversary?"
Chen Yining's expression froze, and then he hit him with a pillow: "Liao! Bin! Did you even forget the anniversary?! What about the promised gift? What about the agreed dinner? What about the agreed movie ticket?"
Liao Bin was hit by him and fled in all directions: "Xiao Ning, don't be angry, I've been dizzy these days, can't I supply you tomorrow?"
"Why wait for tomorrow? I want it today, immediately! Immediately!"
Two hours later, in the mall.
Chen Yining pointed to the rings on the counter and said, "Liao Bin, look, there are couple tail rings here."
Liao Bin glanced at it, and shook his head disapprovingly: "We both have wedding rings, so don't wear any tail rings, that's something only children wear."
Chen Yining stared: "No, I want a tail ring!"
Liao Bin shunned Mao: "Xiao Ning is good."
Chen Yining refused to let go, and raised her voice: "I want a tail ring!"
Liao Bin continued to follow Mao: "Xiao Ning, don't shout, everyone is looking at us."
Chen Yining raised her eyebrows: "I made you feel ashamed?"
"How can it be?" Liao Bin quickly apologized, "I'm out of the locker, so I'm afraid of being surrounded by people?"
"So, you are out of the closet, why are you afraid to buy me a tail ring?"
Liao Bin was robbed and had nothing to say, so he obediently bought him a tail ring.
Four hours later, in the hotel box.
Liao Bin poured Chen Yining a glass of red wine, and clinked glasses affectionately with him: "Xiao Ning, wish us a happy sixth anniversary."
Chen Yining sipped the wine lazily: "Yeah, let's enjoy ourselves in time, maybe we will break up because it's too itchy on the seventh anniversary."
Liao Bin was startled, and then smiled: "Yeah, I heard that the secretary next to me has been secretly in love with me for a long time, but I may consider changing to eating grass."
"Huh, then go eat it, be careful to eat your mouthful of rabbit feces, and come back and poop you for three days and three nights."
"As long as you are at home to serve, I don't worry."
"You think I'm stupid, you will look for the grass on the side of the nest, and I won't look back on the grass? I heard that my ex is still very resentful and tells everyone that he will wait for me for a long time, hehehehe..."
Liao Bin stood up abruptly: "Are you still in contact with your ex?"
Chen Yining looked at him provocatively: "Why, just let you flirt with your secretary, so I can't break the ties with my ex?"
Liao Bin simply sat down beside Chen Yining, and asked with a serious face, "Is he still pestering you?"
Chen Yining asked back: "How long has your secretary been secretly in love with you?"
"I'm asking you seriously, don't talk about him."
"I'm also asking you very seriously. It's not too bad to say 'what's wrong with my secretary, what's wrong with my secretary' in front of me all day long."
Liao Bin was silent for a moment, a smile gradually appeared in his eyes: "Xiao Ning, are you...jealous?"
Chen Yining yelled, "I'm not going to be jealous at all."
Liao Bin burst out laughing suddenly, and hugged Chen Yining's head: "Xiao Ning, do you know that when you get angry, you will speak without choice, hahaha, you must be jealous!"
Six hours later, the cinema.
Chen Yining bit the popcorn, tears streaming down her face: "Liao Bin, why are they so sad?"
Liao Bin: "Hoo hoo... hoo hoo..."
"Compared to them, I think we are much luckier, at least we will not be interfered by so many people."
"Whirring whirring……"
"Liao Bin, if one day you die, I will die of grief..."
"Whirring whirring……"
"Liao Bin, why don't you talk?" Chen Yining turned her head, and found that Liao Bin beside her was holding half a jar of popcorn and had already dreamed of seeing Duke Zhou.
"Liao~bin~" Chen Yining gritted her teeth and wanted to explode, but when she thought it was in a movie theater,
Ye Ming got up and walked in front of He Taisui, and patted his face: "Do you still know who I am?"
"Ye... Brother Ye?"
"Well, you're still awake, let's go."
"Where are you going?" Li Xiyuan asked.
"Didn't you agree to visit my collection room before, did you forget?"
Li Xiyuan twitched the corners of his mouth, he didn't forget it, but He Taisui, who he wanted to visit the most, was already so drunk, he was sure that this trip was still meaningful?
But since Ye Ming invited him kindly, Li Xiyuan couldn't refuse, so he and Ye Ming got He Taisui into the car.
As soon as He Taisui entered the car door, he fell asleep lying on the back seat, and Li Xiyuan sat on the passenger seat and looked out of the car with a resentful expression.
Ye Ming asked while driving: "What are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking, next time Lao He must not be allowed to drink, this troublesome guy."
Ye Ming was in an inexplicable mood, but there was an expression of indifference on his face: "It's not troublesome, He Tai has a straightforward and cheerful personality, which is quite interesting."
"But I'm always so rash, I'm afraid he will suffer in the future."
"I'm starting to worry about his future now, have your roles been reversed?" Ye Ming's tone revealed a hint of sourness.
On the Internet, He Taisui takes care of Huamanlou everywhere, while offline, Li Xiyuan takes care of He Tai. It is hard for Ye Ming not to be jealous of the way these two get along.
Li Xiyuan was immersed in his own emotions: "To be honest, before I met you, Lao He was the only friend I could have a heart-to-heart with. Although he was a little impulsive and protective, he was very loyal. As long as he agreed to What has been done will definitely be done.”
Ye Ming couldn't grasp the point and thought, before meeting me... what about after meeting me?But he didn't dare to ask this sentence.
Li Xiyuan continued: "When I was young, I was often bullied because of my face blindness, so gradually I stopped telling people about my face blindness easily. But Lao He, I can rest assured. Tell him the truth honestly, and he also takes good care of me, he will take the initiative to say hello to me every time we meet—although in fact I can basically remember his face—from this point of view, he is actually a very nice person. Careful fellow."
Ye Ming asked quietly: "Can you remember my face now?"
"You?" Li Xiyuan looked at Ye Ming's hair, which was slightly longer than that of ordinary men, and said with a smile, "We are still at the stage of identifying hairstyles and dressing styles. If one day you suddenly cut your hair short, I'm afraid I'll just... Uh, but I will try my best to remember your face, as long as I can keep meeting frequently, I promise to remember your face within two months!"
Ye Ming naturally followed his words and said, "Then let's see each other more often. I can't remember your face anymore, so I can only hope that you will recognize me first."
Li Xiyuan stared at him suddenly and stopped talking.
Ye Ming felt hairy when he saw it, and asked, "What... are you looking at?"
"Actually... There is a way to remember the other person's face. I mean, simply remember."
Ye Ming asked curiously: "What method?"
"The kind that look like blind people."
"Relying on stroking the facial features?" Ye Ming shook his head and smiled, "Although it is a good method, unless it is a close relationship, I can't touch them one by one."
Li Xiyuan also smiled: "That's what I said, I always feel that it would be a pity if I can't see other people's faces all the time, so I want to give you some advice."
Ye Ming almost blurted out "Then let me touch it", but soon realized that this sentence is not suitable for such an occasion, so he swallowed it back.
When the topic came to this point, there was an inexplicable interruption.
Ye Ming was a little distracted by the thought that suddenly popped into his mind just now, and was embarrassed to change the subject to say something else, but he heard Li Xiyuan suddenly say: "Ye Ming, I hope...you can help Lao He .”
"What help?"
"I think you should be able to see that Lao He actually likes photography very much. He said before that he wanted to take you as his teacher, but he didn't mention it today. I think he might feel that he doesn't know you very well, so he's embarrassed Open your mouth. Don't look at him as a carefree person, but he is actually very sensitive in certain aspects. He was born in a poor family and grew up in a rural area, so he has a very strong self-esteem and is afraid of being looked down upon or rejected by others."
Ye Ming was silent for a moment, and said, "So you mean, let me take the initiative to accept him as an apprentice?"
"Perhaps my request is a bit difficult." Li Xiyuan looked at him shyly, "If it is not convenient to accept apprentices, please teach Lao He more, he may not be able to become a professional photographer as he wishes in his life. Teacher, but at least it will allow him to enjoy his remaining student days... Is this okay, Ye Ming?"
"No problem." Ye Ming suddenly hooked the corners of his mouth, and a faint smile floated up, "But I have a condition."
Li Xiyuan was overjoyed, his eyes glowed: "Whatever the condition, just say it."
"I can accept He Tai as an apprentice, or I can use the rest time to take him out to collect folk songs, but...you have to follow every time you go out."
Li Xiyuan blinked his eyes: "Why?"
"You are an intermediary, you have to be responsible to the end."
"Responsible for what?"
"All assistance matters are equivalent to... the role of an assistant, and it should be considered as paying off He Tai's tuition."
Li Xiyuan didn't know, so he asked, "Wouldn't it be better to let Lao He be your assistant?"
"Assistants are assistants, apprentices are apprentices, how can it be the same?"
"Okay then," Li Xiyuan gritted his teeth, agreed, and then stretched out his hand and said, "I signed the deed of sale, you have to hook me up, and you are not allowed to go back on your word."
Ye Ming patted his hand away and cursed with a smile: "Childish."
Ye Ming drove to the downstairs of his apartment, and after parking the car, he found that He Taisui was still sleeping.
He smiled at Li Xiyuan and said, "I wanted to invite the two of you to visit my collection room together, but He Tai slept so soundly, so don't wake him up. If He Tai wakes up later, Just call him in, and if he doesn't wake up, we can carry him to my apartment after we get out."
Li Xiyuan readily agreed, so he left the sleeping He Taisui in the car, and followed Ye Ming to his collection room.
Ye Ming's so-called collection room actually transformed the garage on the ground floor of the apartment into a darkroom.
Although digital cameras have been popularized for a long time now, some senior photographers who pursue photo quality still maintain the traditional habit of shooting with film.
The area in the darkroom is not large, but all the equipment is available. The walls are covered with various photos developed by Ye Ming with film, basically all of them are landscape photos. Li Xiyuan looked at them carefully, but in In the corner of the room, I saw the only photo of a person.
In the photo, a beautiful young woman in a long skirt is holding a five or six-year-old child, and she is looking up at this side. The smile on the corner of her mouth makes the whole photo look bright and lively.
"This is...?" Li Xiyuan pointed at the photo and looked at Ye Ming.
"This is a photo that my mother has always treasured before her death," Ye Ming explained. "The person who took the photo was my father. My father likes to take pictures, but he doesn't like to take pictures of himself, so my mother didn't keep a photo of my father."
Li Xiyuan thought about it, and asked: "I heard from you that your parents divorced when you were ten years old, but look at your mother's happy appearance in this photo, and her behavior of keeping the photo with you all the time. , shouldn’t it be the divorce caused by the breakdown of the relationship between husband and wife?”
Ye Ming nodded: "My mother loves my father deeply and hopes to have a happy family, but my father is a war correspondent, he likes to pursue a thrilling life, and he doesn't like being confined in one place for a long time - this is what caused their marriage to break down main reason."
When Ye Ming said this, he let out a soft breath: "Speaking of which, the name 'Ye Shizhao' still occupies a place in the photography world. Chen Kaifeng, the leader of our cultural team, is one of my father's friends and fans. Back then When I was about to fail in the news group, it was the Chen group who extended a helping hand and tried their best to save me from the director, and invited me to join the cultural group, giving me room to develop my talents. So some people say that I have a "backstage". , although this statement is not very accurate, but it is not wronged me."
After hearing this, Li Xiyuan was silent for a moment, and asked, "Then your father... is he still alive?"
"It should still be there."
"should?"
"After my mother passed away, he insisted on sending me alimony every month, but never gave me a call. Now that I have grown up and have my own job, he still sends me alimony regularly. The sums are huge, but those numbers don’t mean much to me anymore.”
Li Xiyuan looked up at Ye Ming, and found that the expression on his face was still very calm, just like the last time he talked about his life experience, his face was full of indifference.But Li Xiyuan can deeply understand the unknown loneliness and sadness hidden under his plain appearance.
"Ye Ming, if you don't have any relatives, can I be your relative?" Li Xiyuan's voice was particularly alluring in the silent darkroom.
Ye Ming settled down and laughed, "You want to be my family?"
"Yeah, like...brother or something." Li Xiyuan tilted his head.
Ye Ming shook his head: "I don't need a younger brother."
"Then what do you want?" Li Xiyuan joked, "Don't you want a brother? Although I'm younger than you, but because you lack love more than me, I can reluctantly role-play it."
Ye Ming couldn't help reaching out and tapping Li Xiyuan's forehead lightly: "Dream."
Li Xiyuan covered his forehead and smiled at him.
Ye Ming suddenly had a thought, and said in a low voice: "It's fine to be my younger brother...but, can I touch your face first?"
"Yes." Li Xiyuan stood still in front of Ye Ming generously.
Ye Ming raised one hand and slowly approached the other person's face, his heartbeat began to speed up uncontrollably.
He kept telling himself that he just wanted to know what Li Xiyuan looked like, whether his eyes were big, whether his nose bridge was high, whether his lips were sexy...he didn't have any other thoughts, not at all.
The moment he touched the brow bone of the other party, a sudden ringtone of the mobile phone broke the subtle and thought-provoking tranquil atmosphere. Ye Ming shook his hand, and before the touch of the skin reached his nerve endings, he Has quickly slipped from his fingertips.
"Ah, I'm sorry." Li Xiyuan lowered his head to answer the phone, only to hear He Taisui yelling inarticulately on the phone: "What about people, where did everyone go, why did you leave me alone in the car?"
"Oh, wait, I'll come out to pick you up right away." Li Xiyuan said and ran out.
crane!too!age!Ye Ming clenched his fists and took a deep breath, wishing he could chew up these three words and swallow them.

"Where's my password? Where's my password?" Chen Yining was running around in the study anxiously.
Liao Bin's voice came from far away from the kitchen: "Xiao Ning, dinner is ready."
"I can't find my password!" Chen Yining was still rummaging through the notebook in a daze, "I remember which notebook I clearly wrote down the password in..."
"What password?" Liao Bin walked over slowly, still wearing an apron around his waist.
"My QQ password!"
"What are you doing with that thing, don't you even use QQ?"
"I suddenly thought about it."
Liao Bin squinted his eyes, and there was a hint of vigilance in his tone: "Xiao Ning, what are you doing on QQ? Didn't you say that there are no friends on QQ?"
"I'm not looking for friends, I want to use QQ mailbox!"
"send email?"
"Correct."
"To whom?"
"..."
"can not say?"
"Correct."
Liao Bin's tone became a little more guarded: "Do you have any secrets that you can't tell me?"
"...Aha, um, I'm hungry, let's eat!" Chen Yining laughed and pushed Liao Bin to the kitchen.
"Hey, Chen Yining, don't be sloppy with me, who are you going to email?"
"Just... that, the thesis tutor..."
"Don't fool me, your mentor is over 60 years old and doesn't even know how to use a mouse. Can he read your emails?"
"It's a different teacher."
"Who is it?"
"I'm starving to death, eat and eat..."
"Chen Yining, if you don't make it clear to me today, don't eat."
"Damn it, is there anyone in the world who restricts other people's personal freedom like you? I can't live through this day, I want a divorce!"
"...the marriage is not over yet, why are you leaving?"
******************************
Liao Bin pressed Chen Yining, who was panting softly, kissed his ear, and coaxed him in a low voice: "Xiao Ning, be good, tell me, who do you want to email?"
"Damn it, why are you still thinking about that shitty thing during the day?" Chen Yining gasped and protested.
"You know me, I'm very curious, if you don't tell me, I won't be at peace." Liao Bin said, holding back all his energy and then moaning, "Hey, tell me the truth."
"Ah...you're going to die..." Chen Yining was stunned for a while, and had to surrender, "Okay, okay, let me say it's okay, I want to send you an email."
"Give it to me?" Liao Bin froze, "We are tired of being together every day, why do you still send emails?"
"Sexy! Do you understand the fun? It will be Valentine's Day in a few days. I wanted to write a small love letter and send it to your work mailbox to give you a surprise. Now it's all over. What else is there? mean."
Liao Bin was stunned for a moment, his voice was immediately tinged with great joy, and he smiled ingratiatingly: "It doesn't matter if you get out of the way, you tell me in advance, so I have something to look forward to."
"Hmph, I suddenly don't want to write anymore, it's so boring."
"Xiao Ning is good, my Xiao Ning is the most sensible, I will wait for your love letter."
"Don't write! I won't write if I say no!"
"Heh, if you don't write, I will toss you in different ways every night..."
"Ahh... you will die if you work harder? Ahhh, help..."
******************************
Liao Bin slowly woke up from his long and charming dream.
There was a haze outside the window, he didn't know how long he had slept, and he didn't know what time it was, he just felt groggy, his forehead felt as if he had been hit hard by someone, there were bursts of pain, his whole body was also weak and weak, I can't afford it.
He sat up with difficulty and looked around. The other side of the bed was empty and there was no trace of life.
"Xiao Ning...?" He subconsciously called out, his voice was hoarse and unpleasant, and his throat was dry and uncomfortable.
"Xiao Ning, where are you?" He was confused, and faintly felt restless.
In the past, when he drank too much because of socializing, Chen Yining was always by his side, taking care of him every step of the way, but now, he was already drunk, but where did Chen Yining go?Why ignore him?
He called again, but still got no response, so he could only get up and get out of bed, and staggered out of the bedroom.It was very dark in the living room at this time, and it was also very dark in the study, and there was a deathly silence everywhere.
Xiao Ning...isn't she at home?He rubbed his throbbing temples, stumbled into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, took out a bottle of mineral water, unscrewed the lid and poured it with his head raised.
Under the stimulation of the ice water, his brain gradually regained its clarity, and the gray memories of the scenes before he was drunk also quickly recovered.
In an instant, the mineral water bottle fell to the ground, causing a pool of water stains.
"Xiao Ning...Xiao Ning..." He lay down beside the refrigerator sobbing, in pain.

Li Yue walked outside the office door and stopped when he heard several female colleagues chattering in low voices.
"It's the eighth day, why hasn't Mr. Liao come back to work?"
"I heard that I took a week's leave. Could it be that I went to have a sweet time with his lover?"
"What? President Liao has a lover?"
"How outdated is your news? Let me tell you, Mr. Liao not only has a lover, but also a man, hehe."
"Really? So Liao is always gay?"
"That's no longer a secret, okay? Someone saw Mr. Liao entering the supermarket with his arms around a young boy. It is said that the two of them usually live together, and their lifestyle is exactly like a couple. The only thing they need to do is to get a certificate."
"However, I heard before that Mr. Liao's lover...something seems to be wrong."
"What's wrong? What's wrong? Tell me, tell me!"
Li Yue suddenly pushed the door open and went in: "Why, are you all free? Nothing to do?"
"Uh, Secretary Li." Several female colleagues fell silent in embarrassment, and dispersed to go about their own business.
Li Yue walked to the door of the general manager's office, hesitated for a moment, and then opened the door to enter.
The room was cleaned spotlessly, and the desk still looked like it did when Liao Bin was working a week ago, but its owner hadn't been here for a long time.
Li Yue sorted out the documents that needed to be signed and put them on the desk. He was silent for a moment, sighed faintly, and then turned around to go out.
At this time, there were one after another greetings outside the door——
"Morning, Mr. Liao."
"Morning Mr. Liao!"
"Mr. Liao..."
Li Yuexun looked around, and saw Liao Bin walking towards here with a briefcase in his arms, nodding to the subordinates who did not forget to say hello along the way, but there was no smile on his face, and he looked very haggard.
"President Liao." Li Yue stood still at the door of the general manager's office, and greeted him with a smile, "You are finally back."
Liao Bin nodded towards Li Yue, and asked as he walked into the office: "Is there a lot of work backlog?"
"Some tasks that can be authorized to Vice President Zhang, I have passed the relevant documents to Vice President Zhang for review, and the rest of these documents must be reviewed by you."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work during this time." Liao Bin thanked succinctly.
However, Li Yue had no intention of leaving, Liao Bin raised his head and looked at him: "Xiao Li, is there anything else?"
"...It's nothing, you are busy." Li Yue pursed his lips, turned and opened the door to go out.
The room fell silent again.
Liao Bin shook his head, forced the sadness out of his heart, and settled down to read the document, but was soon interrupted by the ringing of the mobile phone.
"Doctor Zhao?" Liao Bin answered the phone.
"Don't call me Doctor Zhao so well, you and I have been friends for many years anyway." Zhao Yong joked with a smile.
"...Doctor Zhao, what's the matter?"
"Okay, I just want to ask you, how are you doing recently? Last time at Yi Ning's funeral, I saw that you were not in a good state of mind, so I wanted to come and care about you."
"Thank you, Dr. Zhao, I have already returned to work at the company."
"Why don't you rest for a few more days, be careful that you are exhausted. Hey... Yi Ning is also my patient. Before he leaves, you are the one who is most worried about him. If you don't take good care of yourself, you will let Yi Ning The spirit of Ning Zaitian..."
"Doctor Zhao, I'm sorry, I have work to do, so I won't have a long talk with you."
"Oh, okay, then I..."
"Goodbye."
Liao Bin hung up the phone rudely without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, and then felt a burst of irritability in his heart, and the negative emotions that he had finally squeezed out before quickly returned, tumbling up and down in his mind, torturing him to the point of going crazy.
"Why do you remind me that Xiao Ning is dead? One or two of you are forcing me to forget Xiao Ning and return to normal, but what is normal? What is normal?!"
He stood up abruptly, grabbed a glass on the table, and slammed it hard on the ground, making a crisp cracking sound.
After a while, the door of the office was pushed open, and Li Yue walked in with a face of panic and asked, "Mr. Liao, are you okay?" Then his eyes fell on the glass shards on the ground, and he was a little dazed.
"Get out." Liao Bin said with a gloomy face and panted to chase away the guests.
"President Liao?"
Liao Bin shouted hoarsely: "Get out——!"
******************************
The nameless anger that Liao Bin suddenly broke out in the office shocked many colleagues on the same floor, and no one knew who had heard the gossip. It spread throughout the company.
That afternoon, Liao Bin was called to the office by chairman Hu Ruifeng to talk.
"Xiao Liao, I've heard about your lover, and I feel very sorry about it." Hu Ruifeng said his opening remarks after deliberation.
Liao Bin sat across from Hu Ruifeng with his head down, and said in a low voice, "Boss Hu, I understand what you mean. I shouldn't be angry with Secretary Li. If you think I've ruined the company's face, I can..."
Hu Ruifeng smiled and waved his hand: "No, you didn't understand what I meant. Li Yue has been with you for many years, both public and private, and he respects you very much. He has never said anything wrong about you behind your back. As for your personal Personality, in fact, is not a big secret in the company, and I have heard about it a long time ago, but I, Hu Ruifeng, always only look at talents and discuss matters on a case-by-case basis. You are a rare talent. Little things will drive you away."
Liao Bin looked up at Hu Ruifeng in puzzlement.
But Hu Ruifeng sighed: "But Xiao Liao, maybe you didn't realize that your mental state is very unstable now, do you know that? Although I am very happy that you can come back to work, if you continue to maintain Such a great mental pressure to force myself to work, I am afraid it will only be counterproductive. So Xiao Liao, I suggest you take a rest for a while. If you want, I can introduce you to a psychologist to help you through this difficult time ,what do you think?"

Liao Bin didn't want to see a psychiatrist at all.
He knew what those people were thinking. They joined forces and deliberately tried to uproot Chen Yining from his heart, forcing him to forget the past and start a new life.
But Liao Bin didn't want to do this. A life without Chen Yining's memories would be an incomplete life at all, and it wasn't the life he needed.
He would rather be drunk every day, indulge in the dream where Chen Yining appeared, and never wake up.
*****************************
"Hey, Liao Bin, why are you drinking again?" Chen Yining crouched in front of the sofa, patting Liao Bin's cheek unhappily.
"Hmm...?" Liao Bin opened his eyes and saw clearly that it was Chen Yining, so he smiled flatteringly, "Hehe, it's entertainment, they asked me to drink, I can't push it away.
Chen Yining complained with a black face: "Entertainment, entertainment, your body will be destroyed by work one day!"
"Don't be angry, Xiao Ning, come here and let me hug you."
"Go away, go away, the smell of wine is all over your body, it's suffocating to death."
"It's not the smell of wine, it's obviously the smell of wine. Come on, let's have a scent." Liao Bin said, hugging Chen Yining and blowing air on his face.
Chen Yining struggled desperately: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, you old drunkard, let me go!"
"Woo...Xiao Ning, why do you dislike me so much..."
"Hey, how old are you, and you still pretend to be pitiful in front of me?" He said, and began to pull Liao Bin's arm, "Hurry up and take a shower, don't even think about going to bed if you don't take a shower!"
"Xiao Ning, let's take a mandarin duck bath, shall we?"
"roll!"
"Then you can help me rub my back, can you?"
"I'm too lazy to serve you."
"Xiao Ning..."
"roll roll roll!"
After a few minutes.
"Xiao Ning, rub it here."
"understood."
"Xiao Ning, rub over there too."
"Know it."
"Xiao Ning, are you a man? Why are you so weak?"
Chen Yining finally couldn't bear it any longer, and tossed the towel: "I serve you kindly, but you still dislike this, I quit!"
"Xiao Ning..." Liao Bin hurriedly turned around and hugged Chen Yining's waist coquettishly, "I'm drunk, you can't leave me alone."
"Ahhh, you're wet, don't hold me like this, I'm already wet by you!"
Liao Bin bit Chen Yining's ear and laughed softly, "It's easier to do it when it's wet..."
"Liao! Bin!" Chen Yining yelled angrily, pushed away the opponent's body forcefully, turned around and walked out violently.
*****************************
With a "dong", Liao Bin rolled down from the sofa and hit his arm, causing him to grin his teeth in pain.
"Xiao Ning, I'm in pain..." He folded his arms on the ground and couldn't get up. After waiting for a while, no one helped him up while cursing as usual.
After a while, Liao Bin woke up from his trance, propped up his upper body, sat on the ground for a few minutes, and then smiled bitterly: "Why did you wake up suddenly... I almost ate it."
He sat still for a few minutes, then crawled back to the sofa, grabbed a pillow and put it under his head, muttering in his heart, wondering if he could continue to dream.
At this time, the doorbell suddenly sounded from outside the door: "Ding Dong—Ding Dong—"
Liao Bin was upset when he heard it, so he covered his ears with a pillow, trying to pretend he didn't hear it.
"Ding dong—— ding dong—" the doorbell rang persistently.
Liao Bin couldn't pretend anymore, he was so angry that he threw the pillow to the ground, and walked over angrily to open the door.
"Who is it?" The moment Liao Bin opened the door, he roared full of gunpowder.
"Uh," Li Yue, who was standing outside the door, was obviously startled by him. After a while, he said in shock, "Mr. Liao, I... I'll come and see you."
Liao Bin frowned and stared at Li Yue, impatiently: "Did Hu ask you to come?"
"No, it's me..."
"I'm fine. Hu Dong personally approved my leave. I won't go back to work for the time being. If your future is delayed because of this, you can apply for a change of guard. I have no objection."
After Liao Bin finished speaking, he was about to close the door. Li Yue plucked up the courage to support the door panel with one hand: "Mr. Liao, can you listen to me patiently?"
Liao Bin stared at him for a long time, his expression relaxed a bit.
Li Yue took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Liao, I know, I am just your secretary at work, and I have no right to interfere in your private life. But I have been with you for seven years and have learned a lot from you. , so I have always respected you very much, and I don't want... to see you waste your life because of this setback. I hope you can cheer up as soon as possible."
Liao Bin leaned against the doorpost, lowered his head and wandered in a dream, and after a while he smiled wryly: "What if my life is wasted? Xiao Ning... is gone."
"Mr. Liao," Li Yue couldn't stand it anymore, grabbed Liao Bin's shoulder and shook it vigorously, "What can I say to wake you up? Your lover has passed away. This is an unchangeable fact. You lock yourself up at home every day to remember the past, and you can't change his dead..."
"Shut up!" Liao Bin yelled suddenly, making Li Yue take a step back in fright, "Secretary Li, although Xiao Ning is dead, he has always lived in my heart," he pointed to his heart, " Just in this position, I have been living all the time, every frown and smile, everything is vivid in my eyes, do you understand? So, don’t say lightly that you forget the past and start over, I can’t do it, and I don’t need you to sympathize with me or interfere with me ,I do not need!"
After Liao Bin finished speaking, he slammed the door shut with a bang.

"Liao Bin, Liao Liao, Bin Bin, Xiao Bin, Bin'er..." Chen Yining's voice kept ringing in his ears.
Liao Bin couldn't bear to cover the quilt: "Xiao Ning, don't disturb me, I worked overtime last night until two o'clock in the morning, let me sleep for a while."
"No," Chen Yining jumped up and down on the bed, "Today is the sixth anniversary of our acquaintance, you promised me that you would spend this anniversary with me, you can't go back on your word!"
Liao Bin lifted the quilt suddenly: "What? Today is the anniversary?"
Chen Yining's expression froze, and then he hit him with a pillow: "Liao! Bin! Did you even forget the anniversary?! What about the promised gift? What about the agreed dinner? What about the agreed movie ticket?"
Liao Bin was hit by him and fled in all directions: "Xiao Ning, don't be angry, I've been dizzy these days, can't I supply you tomorrow?"
"Why wait for tomorrow? I want it today, immediately! Immediately!"
Two hours later, in the mall.
Chen Yining pointed to the rings on the counter and said, "Liao Bin, look, there are couple tail rings here."
Liao Bin glanced at it, and shook his head disapprovingly: "We both have wedding rings, so don't wear any tail rings, that's something only children wear."
Chen Yining stared: "No, I want a tail ring!"
Liao Bin shunned Mao: "Xiao Ning is good."
Chen Yining refused to let go, and raised her voice: "I want a tail ring!"
Liao Bin continued to follow Mao: "Xiao Ning, don't shout, everyone is looking at us."
Chen Yining raised her eyebrows: "I made you feel ashamed?"
"How can it be?" Liao Bin quickly apologized, "I'm out of the locker, so I'm afraid of being surrounded by people?"
"So, you are out of the closet, why are you afraid to buy me a tail ring?"
Liao Bin was robbed and had nothing to say, so he obediently bought him a tail ring.
Four hours later, in the hotel box.
Liao Bin poured Chen Yining a glass of red wine, and clinked glasses affectionately with him: "Xiao Ning, wish us a happy sixth anniversary."
Chen Yining sipped the wine lazily: "Yeah, let's enjoy ourselves in time, maybe we will break up because it's too itchy on the seventh anniversary."
Liao Bin was startled, and then smiled: "Yeah, I heard that the secretary next to me has been secretly in love with me for a long time, but I may consider changing to eating grass."
"Huh, then go eat it, be careful to eat your mouthful of rabbit feces, and come back and poop you for three days and three nights."
"As long as you are at home to serve, I don't worry."
"You think I'm stupid, you will look for the grass on the side of the nest, and I won't look back on the grass? I heard that my ex is still very resentful and tells everyone that he will wait for me for a long time, hehehehe..."
Liao Bin stood up abruptly: "Are you still in contact with your ex?"
Chen Yining looked at him provocatively: "Why, just let you flirt with your secretary, so I can't break the ties with my ex?"
Liao Bin simply sat down beside Chen Yining, and asked with a serious face, "Is he still pestering you?"
Chen Yining asked back: "How long has your secretary been secretly in love with you?"
"I'm asking you seriously, don't talk about him."
"I'm also asking you very seriously. It's not too bad to say 'what's wrong with my secretary, what's wrong with my secretary' in front of me all day long."
Liao Bin was silent for a moment, a smile gradually appeared in his eyes: "Xiao Ning, are you...jealous?"
Chen Yining yelled, "I'm not going to be jealous at all."
Liao Bin burst out laughing suddenly, and hugged Chen Yining's head: "Xiao Ning, do you know that when you get angry, you will speak without choice, hahaha, you must be jealous!"
Six hours later, the cinema.
Chen Yining bit the popcorn, tears streaming down her face: "Liao Bin, why are they so sad?"
Liao Bin: "Hoo hoo... hoo hoo..."
"Compared to them, I think we are much luckier, at least we will not be interfered by so many people."
"Whirring whirring……"
"Liao Bin, if one day you die, I will die of grief..."
"Whirring whirring……"
"Liao Bin, why don't you talk?" Chen Yining turned her head, and found that Liao Bin beside her was holding half a jar of popcorn and had already dreamed of seeing Duke Zhou.
"Liao~bin~" Chen Yining gritted her teeth and wanted to explode, but when she thought it was in a movie theater,
