After living with a straight man, I became a menswear boss

◇

Shi Jin was still unable to answer this question in the end, because the host on the red carpet read his pen name.

He breathed a sigh of relief and walked onto the red carpet.

"Hiss, is he Shi Qian?"

"It seems to be, didn't you hear the host's introduction just now?"

"God, I thought it was because he didn't show up because he didn't look good, but looking at it now, it's..."

"I have to say, he looks so good-looking."

The young man with a handsome face was wearing an elegant and straight white dress, with a long figure and light amber pupils. When he looked across the red carpet for a long time, even the host, who had already experienced many battles in this kind of hosting occasion, was shocked. Some dazed.

But the host is a professional after all, and quickly recovered his professionalism.

He watched Shi Jin walk onto the stage: "Mr. Shi Qian, good afternoon."

Shi Jin: "Good afternoon."

The host started to ask the questions prepared on the host card: "Mr. Shi Qian, is this the first time to participate in the author conference?"

Shi Jin: "Yes."

Host: "How does Teacher Shi Qian feel about this author conference?"

Shi Jin's eyes fell on the seats under the stage, and he thought for a second: "...a lot of people."

The host, who didn't expect to get such an answer, was a little stunned, but he quickly reacted and laughed and joked: "It seems that Mr. Shi Qian is a humorous person hahaha."

"Then we have one last question."

The host glanced at the hand card. This is a very routine question, so he asked with confidence: "Mr. Cheng Mi just said in an interview that the author he admires most is you. May I ask what you want to say to Mr. Shi Qian?" Did he say that?"

There was a slight pause.

The reporter holding the camera at the side turned the lens on his face at the right time.

This camera is connected to the live broadcast platform, and the live broadcast room on the platform is frantically swiping the screen at this time.

[Help, help, how can you look so good when you take pictures with the camera on your face? 】

【What book to write, just make your debut, I'll spend money to support you! 】

[Why haven't I heard of the intersection between Cheng Mystery and Shi Qian?It's a bit strange to say that I like it in an interview so suddenly. 】

[It’s not surprising, the author can also read books, and it’s normal to admire each other, and the two of them seem to have an intersection. I remember that they recorded a variety show together before, but that variety show hasn’t been broadcast yet. 】

[Way?What variety show?Let me squat! 】

[Don't ask questions upstairs, let's see how Shi Qian answers. 】

Zhong Sisi, who was sitting in the first row of VIP seats, elbowed the cousin next door: "Hey, Yu Ci, guess how he will answer?"

What's the point?

Yu Ci glanced at her, the hooked peach eyes were clearly written with the words "Don't guess".

Zhong Sisi pestered him and insisted on him guessing: "If you don't guess, I'll tell Shijin later, about you, about you..."

She thought for a while, but she didn't think of anything to say, so she simply said, "Say you're going to confess to him later!"

Yu Ci raised his eyebrows: "Who told you that I want to confess my love?"

Zhong Sisi: "Sister-in-law, she said that you want to confess your love at the author conference."

Yu Ci glanced at her, his peach eyes seemed to be a smile but not a smile: "Come on."

Zhong Sisi was stunned: "What are you doing?"

At the same time, a young man's light voice came from the stage, with a calm tone: "Yes."

"come on."

Zhong Sisi suddenly realized.

It's guessing that Shijin will say come on.

The host obviously didn't expect such an answer. He waited, but didn't wait for the next question: "No more?"

Shi Jin nodded: "Not anymore."

The host glanced at the hand card: "Then please take a rest in your seat, Mr. Shi Qian, and we will have an awards ceremony later..."

Shi Jin stepped down from the stage.

The waiter waiting by the stage led him to the corresponding seat: "Mr. Shi Qian, your seat is here."

Shi Jin paused in front of the seat.

He looked at Zhong Sisi on the left side of the seat, and then at Yu Ci on the right side of the seat, his calm eyes froze slightly: "..."

Shi Jin looked at the waiter: "Are you sure my seat is here?"

The waiter smiled perfectly: "Yes, according to the seating plan, your seat is indeed here."

After a pause, he asked again: "Is there any question?"

Shi Jin: "..."

"No." He pursed his lips and thanked the waiter, "Thank you."

The waiter smiled: "You're welcome."

As soon as Shi Jin sat down on the seat, Zhong Sisi on the left came over: "What a coincidence, Teacher Shi, we happened to be sitting next door."

"Also, you look really good today."

Take a moment.

Her words reminded him of the unfinished conversation before he took the stage.

Also thought of is Yu Ci.

He raised his eyebrows, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "The clothes look good...or the person is good-looking?"

Zhong Sisi answered quickly, without thinking: "Of course they are all beautiful."

Yu Ci's eyes fell on Shi Jin's body, and his tone was quite meaningful: "...have a good vision."

Shi Jin's eyelashes moved slightly, he pursed his lips, avoided Yu Ci's gaze, and said to Zhong Sisi, "Thank you."

Zhong Sisi was so happy that he wanted to talk again, but was held in place by his cousin's gaze.

She weighed the consequences impatiently, and finally closed her mouth, quietly acting like a vase.

The people beside him suddenly quieted down, Shi Jin looked sideways slightly.

"Ah."

A chuckle sounded in his ear, and then his scorching breath approached, spraying on the side of his neck with scorching hot breath, almost uttering the sentence against his ear: "See what she is doing?"

The sensitive side of the ear was blushed almost instantly.

Shi Jin moved away a little uncomfortably, her pitch-black eyelashes drooping: "No."

Yu Ci looked at him leisurely: "What's wrong?"

Shi Jin pursed her lips: "...Didn't look at it."

"Clap."

Something rolled over from the back seat.

"Brother Shi, can you pick up a pen for me?" The boy's sweet and soft voice sounded at the same time.

Shi Jin lowered his head, a black pen was lying quietly at his feet.

He picked up the pen, turned around and handed it out: "Here."

Yu Ci raised his eyebrows and followed him to look back.

Cheng Ke blinked, with deep dimples on the side of his face, and a sweet smile: "Thank you, Brother Shi."

Shi Jin shook her head and turned around.

Cheng Ke looked at Yu Ci, his smile remained unchanged, and he just stared quietly for a while, then he suddenly tilted his head, his jet-black pupils dilated slightly: "Uncle, what do you see me doing?"

Yu Ci looked at him, and suddenly frowned.

"Yu Ci, cousin?"

Zhong Sisi tore off Yu Ci's clothes: "Let's go, it's our turn to go up."

The sponsor also needs to walk the red carpet, and the two of them took the Yu family's spot, so naturally they have to walk on behalf of the Yu family.

Yu Ci withdrew his gaze: "Yes."

Before leaving, Yu Ci glanced behind him, feeling inexplicably worried, he frowned, and looked at Shi Jin: "Don't walk around, wait for me to come back."

Shi Jin nodded: "Okay."

Yu Ci and Zhong Sisi took the stage.

Shi Jin sat on the seat and looked up at the stage.

At this time, Shi Jin once again realized one thing - some people are born to shine.

Whether it is on a large stage, a small stage with a red carpet, or a simple piano in the middle of the square, as long as he stands there, the light will follow him.

He quietly looked at the raised eyebrows of the people on the stage, a little absent-minded.

At a certain moment, the man on the stage suddenly glanced this way, and those smiling peach eyes precisely met his gaze through the dozens of cameramen and cameras in the middle.

Shi Jin's heartbeat stopped slightly.

He lowered his eyelids and calmed down his emotions.

The phone in his pocket vibrated suddenly, Shi Jin clicked on it, and found that Shi Yi had sent him a WeChat message.

He looked up at the stage, and the host was holding up the microphone to interview, and it seemed that it would take a while.

Shi Jin hesitated for two seconds, but got up anyway.

Shi Yi didn't say anything specific in WeChat, he just told him to find him on the sixth floor of the hotel.

Because the process needs to be arranged in advance, many editors arrive at the hotel one day in advance. Shi Jin also heard that Shi Yi said that the room arranged for him by the organizer was on the sixth floor, and he also heard him complain that the TV in that room was broken, which made him feel very uncomfortable. He missed the important game last night.

Before leaving the venue, Shi Jin glanced in the direction of the red carpet.

When he looked back, Cheng Ke who was sitting on the chair waved at him from a distance, smiling cutely.

Shi Jin paused for a moment, then looked away calmly.

In the corner of the venue, Shi Yi was looking at the ground with his waist bent and his eyes squinted.

Qiaoqiao glanced at him and asked him: "Shi Yi, are you looking for something?"

Shi Yi didn't raise his head, his eyes circled on the ground: "I don't know where I lost my phone, it was still there just now."

Qiaoqiao was a little speechless: "The phone is so big, if it falls on the ground, can't you see it at a glance? Did you leave it in the rest area and didn't bring it out?"

"Really?" Shi Yi said with some hesitation: "I remember I brought it out."

"Editor Shi Yi." A boy with a cute smile appeared out of nowhere: "Are you looking for your phone?"

Shi Yi glanced at him, and was a little wary of this young man with some mental problems: "Yes."

"Is it this?" Cheng Ke took out a mobile phone from behind with a smile: "I just picked it up in the toilet. I remembered that your mobile phone looks like this, so I came to ask you."

Shi Yi's eyes lit up, he quickly took the phone, and smiled brightly: "That's right, that's it, thank you."

Cheng Ke smiled and waved to him, with a cute tone: "You're welcome."

"When can you change your memory." Qiaoqiao shook her head: "You can even leave your mobile phone in the toilet. I think you can lose yourself next time."

"That's not enough." Shi Yi chuckled: "Isn't this careless?"

The two chatted a few more words, Qiaoqiao turned to look at the stage.

Shi Yi took the phone and flipped through it twice: "It seems that the illness is not too serious, at least it looks normal on the outside."

but......

He looked at the back of the young man who was about to leave not far away, and scratched his head with some doubts.

"...Did I just go to the bathroom?"

the other side.

As soon as Shi Jin got out of the elevator, Shi Yi sent another WeChat message saying that the door was unlocked and asked him to go in directly, and he would come over later.

Shi Jin replied, and his eyes fell on 603 not far from the elevator.

The door was indeed unlocked, it was just ajar.

Shi Jin pushed open the door, revealing an empty room.

The room prepared by the organizer is a standard room, with two 1.5-meter double beds placed in the center, a ball game on the TV opposite the bed, and a round table by the window.

The glass door leading to the balcony was not closed, cold air entered the room from the balcony, and the room temperature was lower than the heated hotel corridor.

Shi Jin sensed something was wrong almost as soon as he entered the room.

He frowned suddenly, and wanted to turn around and go out, but the door was locked with a click.

Shi Jin looked calmly at the person standing by the door: "Cheng Ke."

The white and tender boy tilted his head and smiled happily: "Brother Shi, it's me."

Shi Jin frowned: "You sent me a WeChat message?"

"Yes, I'm afraid you won't come when I look for you."

Cheng was ridiculously shy, with two dimples on his cheeks looming: "So I borrowed editor Shi Yi's cell phone, look, you really came."

Shi Jin's eyes fell on his hands: "Where's Shi Yi?"

"He's at the venue." The young man seemed to have just noticed his gaze. He tilted his head and raised the knife in his hand a little higher: "Brother Shi, what are you looking at with my knife?"

Shi Jin stared at him with a cold expression and said nothing.

However, this silence seemed to have touched Cheng Ke's nerve, his smile suddenly withdrew, and his dark eyes stared straight at Shi Jin: "Brother Shi, why don't you talk anymore."

"Why don't you talk? Don't you like me?"

"But you should like me. I like you so much. After you moved, I looked for you every day, but I couldn't find you anywhere."

"It's fine if you don't talk to me, I'll just tell you, but—" the young man suddenly spoke heavily, he squeezed the knife in his hand tightly, and lowered his head: "I saw you talking to someone else, That uncle is so close to you, but you still talk to him."

"It can't be like this, it's wrong." Cheng Ke raised his head abruptly, his black and white eyes were bloodshot: "You should be mine, you belong to me alone."

Holding the knife, he walked towards Shi Jin step by step: "Brother Shi, you are mine."

"you are mine."

"No." Shi Jin raised her eyelids, looked at the approaching boy expressionlessly, and paused every word.

"I belong only to myself."

-

When Yu Ci stepped down from the stage, he happened to run into Shi Yi who came to look for Shi Jin.

Seeing Yu Ci, Shi Yi asked, "Excuse me, do you know where Shi Jin went?"

He saw that the two were seated next to each other, and thought that Shi Jin might tell him where to go.

Yu Ci frowned slightly, he looked over Shi Yi's shoulder to look at the seat, but only saw the empty chair: "Did you call?"

Shi Yi nodded: "I called and sent a WeChat message, but there was no reply."

He was a little anxious as he spoke: "I didn't answer the phone, and I didn't reply to the WeChat message. He never does this."

Yu Ci frowned, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Shi Jin's number.Not surprisingly, the phone didn't go through.

His face suddenly darkened, startling Zhong Sisi who was at the side: "Cousin, cousin, you should be fine, maybe the teacher turned off the phone just because the battery was out, or he didn't hear it."

Yu Ci glanced at the empty seats not far away, and the premonition in his heart intensified.

Frowning and meditating for two seconds, Yu Ci looked at Zhong Sisi: "Go to the hotel to adjust the monitoring, focusing on the time between [-]:[-] and [-]:[-], and the speed should be fast."

The hotel belongs to Zhong's family, and no one is more convenient than Zhong Sisi to adjust the monitoring.

Zhong Sisi let out an ah, and quickly realized that she ran to find someone with her skirt in her hand.

Yu Ci looked at Shi Yi: "The boy sitting behind Shi Jin is called Cheng Ke, do you know where he lives?"

"Ah, I don't know." Shi Yi scratched his head: "But he stayed in the hotel last night, and I saw his name on the housing assignment form."

"Room No."

"I remember it's the sixth floor, what room is it?" Shi Yi thought for a while: "It seems to be 603?"

After he finished speaking, he repeated it affirmatively: "That's right, it's 603."

Yu Ci strode out of the venue.

Shi Yi chased after him for a few steps in a daze: "What's the matter? Will Shi Jin be with him?"

"I don't know." Yu Ci glanced at the elevator, then pushed open the door of the stairwell: "It's just a hunch."

Before Shi Yi could reply, he saw Yu Ci striding up the stairs—obviously, he was going to climb up to the sixth floor.

He hesitated for two seconds, looked at the elevator again, and finally gritted his teeth and followed.

While climbing the stairs panting, Shi Yi said silently in his heart: If Jin is not on the sixth floor later, then he must treat him to a meal when he finds it, otherwise climbing the sixth floor is too bad.

But he soon discovered that he might not be able to eat this meal.

Because they had just climbed to the sixth floor, the boy's familiar voice came from the unclosed door in the stairwell: "Brother Shi, you put the knife—"

Shi Yi didn't hear what was said later, because he saw Yu Ci who was not far in front of him suddenly opened the door and ran out.

There are knives!

Shi Yi's heart stopped for a second, he took a sharp breath, and ran out after Yu Ci.

However, he didn't run two steps, and saw Yu Ci stopped at the door of 603 not far from the elevator.

It's over, shouldn't there be any danger?

This was the first thought that popped into Shi Yi's mind.

He didn't care to catch his breath, and hurriedly ran over there: "What's the matter, why don't you enter—"

While speaking, Shi Yi had already reached the door of 603, and quickly looked inside.

Then the second half of his sentence was swallowed back into his stomach: "Uh..."

Dangerous, indeed.

But it seems that Shi Jin is not the one who is dangerous.

In the room, the handsome young man heard the movement and turned his head to the door with a calm expression.At his feet, Cheng Ke was tied up with a rope, trying to get up.

Yu Ci suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and there was still a dull pain in his chest after his heart beat wildly.

He slightly loosened his frowning eyebrows, glanced at Cheng Ke who was tied to the bed, and walked towards Shi Jin: "What's going on?"

Shi Jin was rubbing his wrists, when he heard this, he pursed his lips: "He wants to tie me up."

Shi Yi suddenly remembered, Shijin seemed to have learned Sanda for a while in order to write a book?

So he smacked his mouth, and immediately made up a lot of brains from these four short words: For example, how Cheng Ke jumped at Shi Jin with all his teeth and claws, and how Shi Jin pushed him to the ground with a buckle.

His blood was boiling with enthusiasm, and just as he was about to speak, out of the corner of his eye, he saw the knife thrown at the foot of the bed.

Shi Yi opened his eyes wide: "He really dares to hold a knife!"

Yu Ci's eyebrows that had just been stretched were furrowed again in an instant. He strode forward and looked up and down Shi Jin's body: "Is there any injury?"

"No." Shi Jin put down his hand, his face calm: "He didn't get close to me."

"Call the police." Yu Ci glanced at the boy at the foot of the bed.

Since they came in, Cheng Ke didn't shout anymore, just lay quietly, staring at them with a pair of black eyes.

He frowned and looked away: "His mental state is not right, we can't let him stay outside."

Shi Jin didn't raise her eyes: "It's been reported."

As if to be reserved in response, almost as soon as he finished speaking, the siren of a police car came from outside the closed balcony door.

Shi Yi: "..."

Man, that's a quick move.

The farce that ended before it even started ended with Cheng Ke being taken away by the police.

By the time Shi Jin cooperated with the police to finish recording the statement, the author conference was over.

Shi Yi didn't follow, he just said on WeChat that he had helped Shi Jin receive the award and would deliver it to his home another day.

Shi Jin replied "yes" to him.

The policeman in charge of recording his statement escorted him out of the door of the interrogation room: "Mr. Shi, thank you for your cooperation."

Shi Jin put the phone back into his pocket: "Excuse me, Cheng Ke will..."

"In his case, we have already applied for a psychiatric evaluation." The policeman replied: "If the evaluation results come back and he is indeed mentally ill, then we will transfer him to a mental rehabilitation institution for treatment."

Shi Jin was silent, and after a while, he raised his eyes: "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

"By the way." The policeman said suddenly: "Your friend is still waiting for you outside, you should go out quickly, it's very cold today."

friend?

Shi Jin was slightly taken aback, and then realized that what he said should be Yu Ci.

He thanked the police, turned and left the inquiry room.

There is a long corridor to go from the inquiry room to the lobby of the police station.

Shi Jin turned across the corridor and saw Yu Ci on the waiting chair beside the hall.

The man was still wearing the afternoon casual suit, the black hem was pressed behind him, twisted and squeezed out from the gap in the seat.

His sitting posture is not straight, with his legs spread apart, his elbows resting on his knees, and his folded fingers resting on his forehead. His normally flamboyant eyebrows and eyes seem to be a little tired.

Shi Jin glanced at the clock on the wall.

Twenty eight.

It had been three hours since they came to the police station.

He pursed his lips and walked towards Yu Ci: "Yu Ci."

Yu Ci let go of the hand that was holding the center of his eyebrows, his face was slightly relaxed, and he stood up: "It's over?"

"En." Shi Jin replied to him.

"Let's go." Yu Ci walked to Shi Jin's side: "Let's go home."

I don't know when it started snowing outside the house.

Large flakes of flying snow drifted down under the pitch-black night, and velvet-like snowflakes floated into the air, staining the road beside the road with pure white.

The dwarf trees beside the road are dotted with snow, and the leaves of the branches that have not fallen tremblingly hang a few snowflakes. When the night wind blows, they hold the white snowflakes and fall into the soil of the flower bed.

"Snapped--"

The umbrella is opened.

The black umbrella led two figures into the snow.

"Will it be cold?"

A man asked in a low voice.

Shi Jin shook her head slightly, looking quietly at the snowflakes flying outside the umbrella: "In my memory, this seems to be the first time it snowed in Spring City."

"More than that." Yu Ci rummaged through the memories in his mind: "I also played once three years ago."

"Really?" Shi Jin was slightly taken aback.

"Hmm." Yu Ci suddenly asked, "Want to play a game?"

"what?"

"See that building in front of you?"

Shi Jin followed his line of sight and looked forward, a tall building was standing silently in the dark night.

He didn't understand what Yu Ci meant, but he still responded: "I see."

"We don't know how many houses there are in this building, but we can see a few with lights on."

Yu Ci: "Let's not look up now, guess whether the number of lights is one or two, and the person who guesses wrong will tell a secret that the other party doesn't know."

Shi Jin thought for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."

Yu Ci hooked the corners of his lips: "Then you guess first."

Shi Jin lowered his eyes, and recalled the scene he just saw in his mind. After a while, he said, "Even numbers."

"Then I guess the odd number." Yu Ci nodded: "Now you can look up."

Shi Jin raised her eyes, and her eyes fell on the building.

This is a newly built apartment, and the occupancy rate is not too high, so he counted the lights on almost immediately: "6 households."

Shi Jin looked at Yu Ci, her eyes brightened slightly: "You lost."

"Well, I lost."

Yu Ci readily admitted: "Then let me tell you a secret."

The man stood under the umbrella, with white velvet snowflakes falling behind him, and a smile on his outstanding face.Those twinkling peach blossom eyes also curved up.

He said, "Shijin, I like you."

Shi Jing was silent for a moment, he looked at Yu Ci's dark eyes with a smile on his face, and asked for a long while, "Why?"

Yu Ci: "Have you seen "Alice in Wonderland"?

Shi Jin pursed her lips: "I've seen it."

Yu Ci: "Then do you know why a crow looks like a writing desk?"

Shi Jin's eyelashes moved slightly.

He raised his eyes and looked at Yu Ci.

Those beautiful peach blossom eyes were staring at him without blinking, and there was deep tension hidden in the eyes.

Shi Jin suddenly bent her lips.

He raised his foot and walked forward: "Yeah."

"What huh?" Yu Ci was stunned for a moment. He looked at Shijin's back and chased after him: "What does huh mean? Do you know why? Or did you agree to be with me?"

Shi Jin slowed down her pace until the hand hanging by her side touched the cool corner of her clothes.

Before Yu Ci could speak, he lowered his eyelashes: "Yes."

"Me too."

In the dark night with heavy snow, the people on the street are sparsely populated in twos and threes, the snowy night is cold and windy, a black umbrella under the night, stepping on the snowflakes falling to the ground, leaving two people in the snow covered with velvet. footprints.

winter is short,

But the future is long.

"Do you know why a crow is like a writing desk?"

"Because I like you for no reason."

There will be some small episodes in the back, explaining some things that are not written in the main text.

In addition, if there is a cutie in the comment area, I will try my best to satisfy it under the premise of inspiration——
