The plot collapsed after everyone thought it was rotten

After that day, Huo Chuxiao didn't have much influence, but Ji Zongming was always bored in the second half of the journey, and sometimes the two met face to face, and would subconsciously get out of the way.

Huo Chuxiao had never seen him so depressed before. He thought it was a problem with the company's operation, so he asked him if he was okay.

Ji Zongming smiled bleakly at him, "It's nothing, I'm afraid I'll disturb you."

Huo Chuxiao felt even more strange, but he still wanted to ask something, but the other party had already left on his own.

But before going a few steps, Ji Zongming stopped again and called him back.

Huo Chuxiao saw him in the shadow of the corridor, with a twinkle in his eyes.

"Give me a few days, I need to think about something, and if I figure it out, I may talk to you."

Huo Chuxiao was confused, but Ji Zongming's serious expression made him look serious and nodded.

After that, until the end of the trip and the return trip, the two of them did not speak a few words in private. Although Huo Chuxiao still sketched as usual and made friends with some talented street performers on the island, he always felt empty in his heart and always thought of it from time to time. Ji Zongming's words.

What will he talk to himself about?Definitely not a job, the cooperation project with AZ is over.What would that be?

Huo Chuxiao felt that she didn't care, but thinking of him in her heart, her hands were still unsteady, and the paint went out of bounds.He sighed, not because of this clerical error, but because of his mental instability when he thought of Ji Zongming recently.

On the last day of the vacation, everyone drank and had fun all night. Many employees let go a lot through the alcohol, and even dared to pull Ji Zongming and his senior executives to play some wine table games.

Huo Chuxiao didn't participate either, those young people also took care of him, and he didn't come over to force people to socialize, so he sat quietly in the corner with a few people who didn't drink, chatted with each other, watched the group of people making noise, watched Those who don't drink secretly take pictures of their colleagues and make emoticons, which is also quite easy.

They played a lot of wine table games. They played from meal time until the early morning. During this period, several of them went to the bathroom to vomit.

Ji Zongming was one of them. According to him, when the army was demobilized, the entire table had never drunk him, and his drinking capacity was unfathomable.Several employees were gearing up to compete with him, and kept taking him to the game.

Huo Chuxiao didn't understand those things, all he knew was that they were arguing completely out of proportion, and in the end, he didn't know if they were playing some kind of truth or dare, and Ji Zongming should choose whether to stuff a whole bottle of wine in one breath, or choose a man who was pleasing to the eye. Colleagues kiss.

This group of boys held back their anger and wanted him to choose the former, and Ji Zongming did fulfill their wish. Hearing this, he directly poured the wine with his teeth, raised his head, and started pouring without blinking an eye.

The surroundings were boiling, and everyone was applauding him.

Huo Chuxiao was terrified looking at it, and said in his heart that if he drank this bottle, he would definitely go to the hospital directly.

However, after Ji Zongming finished drinking, he still seemed to be okay, his face didn't blush and he wasn't out of breath, he just poured the wine bottle to those boys to indicate that it was empty, and then threw it away with a loud clang.

The few employees felt a little guilty at this time, fearing to offend the president, one of them muttered in a low voice: "It's okay, sir, you're single again, no one will gossip after a kiss. We'll forget about it after today."

Ji Zongming glanced at him, and said with a smile: "Little brat, how can you act good if you get cheap?"

The young man let out a hey hey but didn't speak.

But Ji Zongming sat down on the sofa boldly, and said quietly: "Even if you give me this for the rest of the trip, I still have a few bottles to drink. I guard my sweetheart like a jade, and I don't even kiss anyone. It's just a joke." Neither."

He said this casually, matching his demeanor, it seemed like he was talking drunk, but the people around him were dumbfounded, and after realizing it, they all looked at one place in unison.

Huo Chuxiao was eating soufflé with a small plate, when he was suddenly stared at by more than a dozen pairs of eyes, he was stunned, more than once.

First, he was stunned for a while when he heard Ji Zongming say that he had a sweetheart, then he was stunned for a while when he was stared at by a group of people, and finally he was stunned for a while when he realized what the group of people meant.

But the instigator didn't react at all, sat on the sofa and lit a cigarette, slowly exhaled a smoke ring, and didn't know if he was drunk or not.

From Huo Chuxiao's angle, he could only see half of Ji Zongming's side face. Seeing that he didn't even look at him, he was relieved on the one hand, but also slightly disappointed on the other hand.

As for why he was lost, he didn't want to think about it.

Because he doesn't need to think about it.

Since Ji Zongming moved out, the time the two of them spend together has dropped sharply. I thought that the relationship was so weak, but who knew that Ji Zongming had been kind to him bit by bit before, but it all came out.

I didn't notice it before, but now that I live alone, I realized that Ji Zongming was so busy at work, and he would find time to cook dinner for himself, and bring home desserts to feed him from time to time, and he doesn't have to worry about the usual housework at all. What Zong Ming arranged was to let people visit at the time when he would not disturb Huo Chuxiao's work.

This trip, he also packed the luggage himself. When he looked through the small medicine box, he saw at a glance the small medicine bag Ji Zongming helped him sort out before. It contained all the medicines and the dates were new. In front of the medicine box, holding the bag of things in a daze for a long time.

It's not that he hasn't liked others before. When he was in high school, even though he met people unkindly, he also had thoughts of more than friendship towards Qi Lang.He knew that no matter how much he changed his temperament, his nature would still be difficult to change. As long as someone was kind to him, he would be easily moved, and he would expand this kindness into ten points.And the most ridiculous thing is that people may give everyone a good point, and everything is just a self-guided strategy.

So Ji Zongming didn't care that when others misunderstood that they were a couple, Huo Chuxiao was very angry.He was angry that he couldn't help being moved, and also angry that Ji Zongming didn't have that kind of thought for him, and made him misunderstand.

So even if so many eyes looked over and thought that the person Ji Zongming was talking about was him, Huo Chuxiao refused to believe it.

As long as he does not expect, there will be no disappointment.

What's more, when he and Ji Zongming returned from this trip, he and Ji Zongming might be far away and live separately.

On the plane back to China, he was still in the corner next to Ji Zongming. I don't know if it was intentional or no one cared. The two of them sat next to each other when they came and went.

Huo Chuxiao looked out of the window with his chin resting on his chin in a bit of loneliness, while his mind was empty, when he suddenly heard someone call his name.

Turning around, I found that it was Ji Zongming.

He replied, "Is there something wrong?"

Ji Zongming nodded seriously, "It's something."

Seeing his serious expression, Huo Chuxiao couldn't help but look around, only to find that the other people in this section of the cabin were actually gone, not only went out together, but were sent away by Ji Zongming.

Finding that there were only the two of them left in the space, Huo Chuxiao panicked for not coming.

He said with some confidence: "Please tell me."

Ji Zongming didn't speak directly, but stared at him for a long time, until Huo Chuxiao wanted to escape from this part of the cabin before he spoke.

"Chuxiao, I like you."

Huo Chuxiao was stunned for a moment, then blurted out: "What do you like?"

Ji Zongming told him very seriously and clearly: "You."

Huo Chu blinked, as if he didn't understand.

Ji Zongming didn't give up, and continued: "Sorry for choosing such a hasty occasion to confess to you, but it doesn't matter where you are, I'm just afraid that you will run away, at least on the plane, you can't leave for a while. I want to thank you There is no other meaning in saying this, and I don’t want you to give me the answer now, I just want to ask you, have I troubled you? If I say that after we leave this plane, I will start pursuing you, Will you be uncomfortable? If you think so, I..."

Ji Zongming actually gave himself a long time of psychological construction. He thought about what would happen if Huo Chuxiao rejected him. Huo Chuxiao has the right to refuse. After all, what he did before was really bad. He warned himself to learn to accept it. He was about to hypnotize himself, but when he really waited for this moment, he found that he still couldn't say that sentence.

There's no way he can say, I can quit if you're bothered.

He just couldn't help it.

He can't.

Ji Zongming felt that he had made a sad expression, because Huo Chuxiao opened his mouth slightly and looked at him in surprise.Ji Zongming felt that he was very cunning at this moment, and deliberately pretended to make Huo Chuxiao soft-hearted.But he didn't, just thinking about being rejected, he felt a slight soreness in his heart, worse than being hit by a bullet while wearing a bulletproof vest.

He couldn't put a bulletproof vest on his feelings.

Huo Chuxiao's silence lasted longer than he expected, and in the end Huo Chuxiao even turned his head away and stopped looking at him.

Ji Zongming only felt that a bucket of ice was poured down, and he felt cold from the inside out.

Is it over, he thought?Does he deserve it?Could it be that this moment was the last sentence the two of them said face to face?

As soon as this thought appeared, Ji Zongming couldn't hide his excitement. If it was true, he still wanted to fight for it again.

However, just before he spoke again, Huo Chuxiao's inaudible voice came.

"No discomfort."

Huo Chuxiao's voice was very small, but in the quiet cabin, he could still hear it clearly.

It was so clear that it was nailed into Ji Zongming's heart.

Still excited, he leaned over and asked, "You, say it again!"

Huo Chuxiao fell silent, and said after a while: "Forget it if you didn't hear it."

"I heard it! I..."

Seeing his voice getting louder, Huo Chuxiao could only turn his head and say dissatisfiedly, "Be quiet!"

Ji Zongming immediately shut his mouth honestly, but his eyes were still bright.

Huo Chuxiao asked him, "Is this what you said a few days ago to think about?"

Ji Zongming nodded.

Huo Chuxiao pursed her lips and said, "...I'm not uncomfortable, but I'm a little troubled."

Ji Zongming was a little anxious when he heard that, "Say it."

Huo Chuxiao said frankly: "I don't think you and I are from the same world. And... we are already divorced. You also said that you are not interested in me..."

Ji Zongming was really anxious, and hurriedly said: "I regret it, can't I?"

Huo Chuxiao: "But... To be honest, I don't really believe it now. You used to be very serious and distracted."

Ji Zongming said in distress: "I..."

Now he says he wants to go back in time and destroy his former self with a single shot, is there still time?

Judging by Huo Chuxiao's reaction, it's probably too late...

He didn't say anything more, for fear that pushing Huo Chuxiao too hard would be counterproductive.But at any rate, the intention has been conveyed first, and the future will be discussed later.

Although Huo Chuxiao didn't respond to him, at least he didn't refuse, right?

It means he still has a chance.

With such thoughts in mind, Ji Zongming returned home comfortably.

When Yu Zhen was dismissed by him, he thought that he was going to do something, but he kept pretending not to know that Huo Chuxiao was there along the way, and after they split up and went back to each house, he hurriedly pulled Ji Zongming to ask what was going on. , What the hell did he do? Why did Mr. Xiao Huo look so uncomfortable afterwards, so he didn't dare to look him in the eye.

Ji Zongming said flatly: "I confessed to him on the plane."

Yu Zhen: "Oh, so that's the case."

……

After half a minute of dead silence.

"What?!"

The yelling caused the passers-by next to him to look sideways.

Ji Zongming picked his ears in disgust, "Why are you crazy, barking like Chu Xiao's dog."

Yu Zhen almost grabbed him by the collar and forced him to ask. He said in disbelief, "You fucking confessed to someone so casually? Are you fucking on a plane, or a public plane, not a private plane!?"

Ji Zongming looked bewildered, "What's wrong with the private jet? Does the confession have a high success rate?"

"Fuck it! Are you the president? How can a president be so low? You didn't confess to someone on your own plane! Did you agree?"

After these few hours, Ji Zongming had calmed down and said calmly, "No."

Yu Zhen sighed bitterly, "Sure enough, why didn't you tell people about this on the subway? Do you think you agree? It would be easy if I didn't give you a word."

Ji Zongming was very relieved: "I didn't want to get his answer, but I just asked him if he would be unhappy if I started to pursue him in the future."

"Oh?" This was beyond Yu Zhen's expectation.

He tasted it and laughed out loud, "You are quite a thief. If you do this, you will be passive and active. I guess Mr. Huo will be thinking wildly for several days instead."

Ji Zongming walked to the smoking area, lit another cigarette, and sighed, "I wish he could think wildly about me."

After Ji Zongming's abrupt confession, Huo Chuxiao returned home as if he was running for his life.After I got home, I didn’t do anything, I just stretched the canvas and started painting day and night, trying to forget that memory.

Ji Zongming is really interested in him, he is actually a little happy, no, there should be a lot of happiness.But he didn't lie, deep down, he still didn't believe it.

Huo Chuxiao even thought about it, maybe the other party also separated from him suddenly, creating some kind of illusion, mistaking the miss for his roommate as love.

The most important point is that Ji Zongming should have liked Huo Chuhong in the first place, and he and Huo Chuhong are two people who are completely different from each other. They can hardly find a thing in common. Why did Ji Zongming suddenly change his temper and fall in love with him? What about yourself?

Huo Chuxiao chose to escape in the end, don't think about it at all, anyway, Ji Zongming said that he would take action, let's see, he has been so cold and indifferent, after a while Ji Zongming lost interest, and retracted his confession.

He scanned some of the landscape paintings he drew during his trip to Sicily and posted them on the Internet. His original intention was to share recent developments as usual, and he forgot after posting them.

As a result, when I woke up the next day, I found that the data of that Weibo was surprisingly high, and the reposts, comments, and likes were two or three times that of other Weibos.Huo Chuxiao said in his heart that he usually does not update regularly, and often disappears for a month before resuming the update. Why is there such a big reaction from netizens this time?

After clicking on that Weibo, he couldn't understand the comment section at all.

"??? Am I mistaken or is it really Sicily?"

"Ahhhhhhhhh the male god is finally updated! Get the new wallpaper for your phone!"

"Upstairs, shhh—"

"I understand everything..."

"What code are you making, why can't I understand it?"

"Damn, so the news on the game forum is true?? The male god really followed someone to Italy?"

"Should, probably, maybe, indeed. Sure enough, men know men best. At the beginning, the game brother swore, I still think it's because of CP."

"No, what are you talking about, please tell me! The child is confused and anxious."

“[Link] See for yourself.”

"Damn it... Are men chasing stars so scary, just break into the inside, where did they find the news? It's true! It said that H and J were still inseparable after their divorce, and they were showing off their affection in the company under the banner of cooperation." ...and it was obviously a trip for the company's internal celebration, but H was brought with him, he is no longer a family member! So what's the situation with these two people now? Didn't they say that CP is dead? empty."

"They got married because of Mrs. Huo. Now that Mrs. Huo is dead, they got divorced. They kept in touch after divorce, but they became closer. You appreciate it, you appreciate it carefully."

"Grass, good product. Sure enough, rich people don't care about the handling fee. It's all about fun."

"What's the difference between a marriage certificate and a divorce certificate? The important thing is that people are always by your side."

"Civil Affairs Bureau: You are amazing, you are noble!"

"Thank you, back to the pit, yes, I'm just that spineless."

"Sisters come back to eat big candy! The game forum is crazy, saying that in the game developed by J company, there are easter eggs with private goods! It's in the latest dlc released!"

"It's too late, let's go! People with hypoglycemia love this mouthful."

Huo Chuxiao didn't understand the previous ones, but he did understand the following ones.After all, he had played the game for more than ten hours for the project of Ji Zongming's company. The official account he followed a few days ago did push him a message saying that there was an update, but he was really not interested , I didn’t go to see it.

Now, he is actually very curious. Looking at the words of netizens, is it possible that the updated content is related to him?

Huo Chuxiao thought about it, turned on the computer, bought the latest dlc, and logged into the game.

He looked at the new content and said that in the free exploration mode of the stand-alone player, the branch content was enriched, and many easter eggs and achievements were added for players to explore.

Huo Chuxiao knew almost nothing about this kind of game. In the ten hours of game time, almost half of it was devoted to the stand-alone mode. In the multiplayer mode, he basically died after entering the game. He really had no experience in playing, so there were more exploration and Easter eggs are more interesting. At the beginning, I also collected a few posts on the game forum, all of which were spontaneously written by netizens.

When he remembered, he quickly opened the post, thinking that he would just copy the answer to save trouble.

Then I saw the post originally titled "All Achievements in Azone Exploration Mode", and now I added a very eye-catching addition to the front:

【The landlord has been fed to death by dog ​​food】

Recent Updates:

"Oh my God, I woke up with 100+ private messages, all of them clamoring for me to update the tutorial, wanting to see the feedback from Ben Steel Straight Man, the poster thought it was a good Dengxi, so after the update... now it's so fucking popular to trick dogs into it Kill!! Lao Tzu still spent money on dog food, really buy dog ​​food to eat!! Not much nonsense, after the iron guys update the DLC, enter the exploration mode, buy a few raw flesh and blood in the material store, in the latest The (x: 78, y: 191) coordinates of the map are wandering, put the meat on the ground, try a few more times, and you will be able to trigger the easter egg. Not to mention more, I want you to try squatting on the roadside to bask in the sun and get kicked The feeling of kicking!!"

Huo Chuxiao followed suit ignorantly, and when he arrived at the coordinates, he found that the map was in the style of a commoner community. At dusk, there were various small shops open on the cozy streets, and it didn't look like a No. 1 shooting game at all. There will be an atmosphere.

As he thought about it, he paced back and forth according to what the guide said, and after a while, the easter egg was triggered.

To his surprise, the one walking towards the raw flesh and blood he threw on the ground was actually a half-grown puppy, and when it got closer, Huo Chuxiao recognized it as a German shepherd.

The puppy ate the meat, looked up at him, then turned around and walked away, stopped after walking a few steps, looked back at him, and seemed to beckon him to follow.

Huo Chuxiao was a little dazed, because the puppy barked at him a few times, and he was driving it. Mathis, who was playing in the living room, heard it and ran in to sit by his feet. Only then did Huo Chuxiao realize that the puppy in the game , why do you look more and more like Matisse?

He walked with the puppy for about four to five minutes. He walked into a small four-story building deep in a residential area and climbed all the way up. Because the puppy was too small, it was difficult to climb the stairs. , slipped down several times, wasted a lot of time.

Huo Chuxiao looked at it and wanted to laugh, and said in his heart that he was too similar to Matisse, and this dog couldn't climb stairs well.

But when the puppy led him to a room, he stopped laughing.

It was a small apartment with a half-open door. When you walk in, you can find that the decoration style is very comfortable, simple Mediterranean style, wooden structure, with two bedrooms and a study.The bedroom closest to the entrance is very strange. There is an oil painting on the bed that seems to be drying, there are two human skeletons leaning against the window, and a pile of picture frames and paint buckets leaning against the wall, like half a warehouse.

The other bedroom is pasted with extremely artistic and visually impactful wall stickers, like a painter's graffiti, and some portraits of famous painters are hung on the wall.

In the last study room, there was an easel in the center, on which stood an unfinished portrait of a man in a formal dress sitting with a pipe in his mouth, but his face was blurred and his facial features could not be seen clearly.

On the desk beside him, there was a small cardboard with interactive options.

Pick it up, and you'll see a line of writing on it.

"It's good to turn the bedroom into a warehouse."

The puppy in the game barked happily around the character twice, and Matisse outside the game also barked at the owner.

But Huo Chuxiao stared at the screen, motionless.

It's like I can't hear anything.
