"Cough, cough, cough..." Before he could feel the spicy taste in his mouth, the chili choked into his throat first, and he turned sideways and coughed violently. The hot and painful feeling seemed to infect the entire esophagus.

Ye Liangxi's face was flushed red from the heat, his eyes were wet physically, and he was a little embarrassed. He pushed away the person who came to take care of him, covered his mouth and coughed, and went to the bathroom.

Yu Fengyan didn't mind being pushed away by him, and followed with his lips pursed.

"No, I have to..."

"Okay, stop talking!" Zhou Shu withdrew her worried gaze, slapped her husband's leg, and was very annoyed, "Tell me about you, you are almost fifty, you have to fight with a child!"

The man took care of him, Cheng Cheng was relieved, and persuaded the people who were arguing to let them eat first, and sighed secretly, family conflicts are really difficult to adjust.

Bending over to support the washstand, he coughed a few more times, and when he gradually calmed down, Ye Liangxi held the water and rinsed his mouth to get rid of the spicy taste in his mouth, and washed his face to calm himself down.

When he looked up, he saw the man standing at the door in the mirror. He paused, stretched out his hand to pull the towel, wiped it twice and took it away. Seeing the light gray color, he paused, realizing that he had entered the public bathroom. It's all about men.

Yu Fengyan looked at him blankly, seemed to guess what he was thinking, leaned against the door frame and smiled, "It's okay, I don't mind."

Ye Liangxi came back to his senses, raised his eyes to look at him in the mirror, hung up the towel vigorously, "Who cares about you, I despise you, okay?"

He lost his temper after using his own things, but Yu Fengyan was not angry either, he bent his lips and stared at him for a while, and said: "Next time, don't make trouble with your body."

The last time I was drinking, this time I was eating spicy food. Every time I get angry with someone, the other party will bully me. This habit is very bad and needs to be changed.

Ye Liangxi's expression of embarrassment and anger faded away, and he brushed the hair that was stained with water droplets on his forehead a few times, and said seemingly indifferently: "Who can't get through it, usually protect your throat and avoid spicy food, but suddenly your mouth is greedy."

Yu Fengyan put his wristband on his chest, and looked at him without saying a word, with disbelief clearly written on his face.

Seeing from the mirror, Ye Liangxi turned around, stepped forward and approached him, raised his head slightly because of his height, "Even if it was on purpose, didn't you say it, it's my body, why do you care so much!"

After he finished speaking, he wanted to go around, Yu Fengyan stretched out his hand and grabbed his arm, and said first when someone glared at him and wanted to lose his temper, "I'll be worried."

All of Ye Liangxi's words were stuck in his throat, his expression froze for a moment, he couldn't recover for a while, and looked at people stupidly.

Seeing that he was quiet, Yu Fengyan raised his hand and pressed his shoulder, "Your parents and sister Cheng are also worried."

Ye Liangxi closed his mouth slightly because of surprise, his eyebrows and eyes were slightly drooped, and the tips of his ears were a little hot. To cover up his embarrassment, he shook off the opponent's hand, "Got it, it's really long-winded!"

His hand was empty, the person in front of him had already passed him out, Yu Fengyan withdrew his hand and shook it, lowered his eyes, and pressed the switch on the wall next to him, bang, the light went out.

"Liangxi, why has it been so long? If you don't come back again, we'll eat up all the good things." Cheng Cheng saw him coming, waved his hand, and signaled him to sit down quickly.

"Today is my birthday. You must not keep the delicious food for me." She didn't mention it, and Ye Liangxi completely pretended that nothing happened, and didn't look aside when she sat down on the chair.

Yu Fengyan followed him back, but he took a look at the person in the first seat, his expression was still not very good, he lowered his head and ate without making a sound.

"Yes, yes, it's your birthday, your boss, here, I'll give you the shrimp slips just off." Cheng Cheng nodded cooperatively, reached out to fish the shrimp slips from the bone broth pot and put them in his bowl.

Ye Liangxi said that it was almost the same, he didn't say anything else, he just lowered his head and ate.

After eating the hot pot for more than an hour, the rain outside was still falling, and there was no tendency to reduce it. Looking out from the window, it was hazy.

The pot was still boiling, and several people had moved to the living room, sitting on the sofa around the coffee table.

Jiang Jiang squatted beside him and opened the packing box, took out the cake decorated with flowers, inserted the digital candle, lit it and pushed it forward, "Make a wish, Brother Xi."

Cheng Cheng, who came to the wall in advance, turned off the lights, leaving only the warm light of candles in the room, softening everyone's faces.

Ye Liangxi clasped his hands together and closed his eyes, wishing his family and friends to be safe and healthy, and his career to go smoothly. He heard the uneven voice of singing the birthday song in his ears. He pursed his lips and smiled, opened his eyes and blew out the candles.

With a "pop", the light was turned on again, and the room was filled with applause. He curled his lips, but the smile in his eyes remained undiminished.

"Brother Xi, happy 24th birthday!" Jiang Jiang clapped his hands vigorously, turned his head and walked away to take out his gift from the drawer of the TV cabinet, and handed it over with both hands, "Open it and have a look."

"Thanks." Ye Liangxi took it with a smile, and tore off the wrapping paper. Inside were earphones, the brand he used often, and the model was a new one. He shook it, "In time, I just wanted to change it."

What Cheng Cheng gave him was a big-name cashmere coat. The weather was going to be cold soon. She thought about how practical it was, and decided to buy it back.

"Come on, I gave it to you from your father." Zhou Shu took out a small box and looked at something like an ornament.

Ye Liangxi knew that even though she said so, she must have chosen this gift herself, and it was already a face for Dad to come this time.

Opening the box, it turned out to be a trendy men's necklace. There was a small musical note hanging under the silver chain. It must have taken a lot of thought to think of giving something to a young man like himself. He touched the small musical note, Smiling, "Thank you, I like it very much."

After the gift was delivered, the last process was to cut the cake. Cheng Cheng knew that he seldom ate sweets, and the two elders probably did too. The order was only ten inches, so there was no waste.

After eating the cake and chatting for a while, it was already very late, she raised her wrist to look at her watch, and tentatively said: "It's raining outside, so it's inconvenient to find a hotel or something, uncles and aunts can make do with Liangxi For one night, you sleep in his room, and he sleeps with Yu Feng, anyway, both rooms have double beds, which are quite spacious."

Ye Liangxi rolled her eyes in her heart when she heard her words, knowing that she did it on purpose, with her carefulness as a manager, would she not expect to book a room in advance?Forget it, I want my parents to stay.

His father snorted and didn't say anything, but his mother hesitated for a while, and said, "Will it be too disturbing, will Liangxi and Xiaoyu sleep crowded, will it be uncomfortable?"

Yu Fengyan received the wink from the woman to him, and smiled kindly, "I don't care, Auntie, the bed is quite big, enough to sleep in."

Hearing this, Ye Liangxi glanced at him, feeling dissatisfied, this guy is also with the other party.

"That's how it is, rest early, you have worked hard to take the high-speed train here today." Cheng Cheng didn't give them any chance to hesitate, and clapped his hands to make a decision.

She pulled Jiang Jiang up to help clean up the mess on the dining table, but Zhou Shu stopped them and told them to go back early. It was raining outside, and it would not be safe to go later.

Cheng Cheng didn't insist either, leaving time for them to get along with each other. They still have work to do tomorrow, so they didn't bother too much.

As soon as the two of them left, the atmosphere suddenly became quiet. Zhou Shu looked at the father and son who were looking at each other silently, and sighed, "I'll clean up first."

There were too many things to toss about eating hot pot, Yu Fengyan followed to help, Ye Liangxi didn't want to be alone with his father, so he followed.

In the end, it was four people who were busy working together. The two young people were sent outside to collect the dishes, and the elders simply washed them in the kitchen and put them in the dishwasher.

Yu Fengyan took the chopsticks to clamp the unfinished dishes together, Ye Liangxi sealed them with plastic wrap and put them in the refrigerator, they can be used to cook noodles tomorrow.

The remaining empty plates were stacked up and he carried them to the kitchen.

The fire under the pot had already been extinguished. Ye Liangxi stretched out his hand to bring the pot in. Maybe he was distracted and didn't hold it steady. The pot shook, and the red oil splashed out and landed on the back of his hand, causing him to "hiss" when it was hot. , quickly retracted his hand, and the pot fell back with a "boom".

Yu Fengyan, who came out of the kitchen after putting down the plate, happened to see that he took a step forward and grabbed his hand. The skin stained with oily soup was already turning red, and he dragged him into the kitchen.

Zhou Shu, who heard the movement, was wiping her hands on her apron and was about to come out to check. Seeing them entering holding hands, she said, "Why, are your hands hot?"

Yu Fengyan nodded and didn't explain much, took the man's hand under the faucet to rinse and cool down, turned his head to look at his expression, and said behind him: "Auntie, there is a medicine box under the TV cabinet, please find it. "

Zhou Shu responded and turned around to go out, muttering why she was so careless.

Ye Tingwei, who was next to the dishwasher, leaned towards them, and quickly backed away, pursing his lips with a bad expression, "You can't do anything well with your hands and feet!"

After being scalded, Ye Liangxi was already very irritable, and being ridiculed like this again, she immediately went back without thinking, "That's right, I'm a waste in your heart, I can't do anything, I better be obedient and let you manipulate me!"

"What are you talking about?!" Ye Tingwei was rebuked by him, and his temper also came up, "I am your father!"

They quarreled again, which Yu Fengyan didn't expect, and both sides couldn't persuade them, so they simply remained silent for a while and concentrated on fighting the young man.

"Isn't it right?! It's useless to choose a job if you don't listen to you honestly. It's been a few years, and I still dislike me because of this matter. Isn't that what it means!" Now that the words have been spoken, Ye Liangxi Simply explain.

Back then, because he signed a company to enter the entertainment industry, the other party lost his temper a lot. He thought it was because he didn't discuss it with them. At first, he endured it, but every time he went home, he was choked by various things. Cheng broke up unhappy, and gradually he will not go back, and he can always hide if he can't be provoked.

But the pimples are still there, no matter how long it has been, as long as they meet together, they still can't get along well, even if it's their birthday, the other party doesn't give themselves a good face.

Hearing the quarrel, Zhou Shu, who came back with the medicine box, stopped at the kitchen door, looking at the blushing father and son with thick necks, who had a terrible headache.

"I don't like you? Who are we who don't like who?!" Ye Tingwei was so angry that he slapped him on the table.

"You know it in your heart!" Ye Liangxi didn't want to say more about their disputes over the past few years, turned his face away from him, wanted to pull his hand back but didn't.

"Don't move, charge for a while longer." Yu Fengyan clenched his hand tightly, and his voice was very low. He felt that it was time for the father and son to quarrel and explain everything clearly.

"I don't know, but tell me!" Ye Tingwei gritted his teeth and glared at his rebellious son.

"You want me to be a music teacher like you, honestly, so you don't want me to enter the entertainment circle, you don't want me to be a singer, dad, why do you insist on forcing me!" Ye Liangxi knew what his dad was thinking More conservative, teacher is a decent profession, singer is not, "Do you have to sacrifice my ideals for your so-called face?!"

"I don't want you to be a music teacher, I just don't want you to enter the entertainment industry!!"

"What's the difference?!"

"Yes! I don't want to see some people who don't understand anything comment on my son!"

There was an instant silence in the kitchen, only the sound of running water.

Ye Liangxi was a little stunned, staring blankly at the other party, his lips moved, "Dad..."
