lark

Qi Yubai worked late today, Zhang Hong drove him back to Bohai.

"President Qi, why don't you go to Carlton?" Zhang Hong, the first secretary who had to accompany him until late at night, drove the car out of the company, and asked this question just thinking about it.

Qi Yubai loosened his tie in the back row, thinking about it too.He used to like to sleep in Carlton, which is close to the company and the room is quite big.But recently he seldom stays there by himself, it seems that it has become the exclusive place for him to meet Lin Nan, and there is already another person's imprint.I was not used to sleeping there by myself.

But it's not because he's not used to returning to Bohai tonight.

"Someone left a bomb in my house." Qi Yubai's tone rose a little as he thought about the text message Lin Nan sent tonight.

"Bomb?" Zhang Hong almost stepped on the gas pedal to the end, even if he had seen many big scenes, he couldn't tell if Qi Yubai was serious, "A real bomb?"

"No." Qi Yubai frowned, "Can't you hear I'm joking?"

"...I can't hear it." Zhang Hong glanced at him through the rearview mirror, "But I can see that the boss is in a good mood today."

Qi Yubai in the back row didn't seem tired from working overtime until late at night, but rather cheerful.

"It's not bad." Qi Yubai seemed to feel that Zhang Hong was talking nonsense, he paused and said, "I really shouldn't take him back to Bohai."

His tone was harsh, but his expression didn't look angry at all.

Zhang Hong naturally understood who this "he" was referring to, smiled lightly and said nothing, and concentrated on sending his boss to the home he didn't like to go back to.

Not long after, the car arrived at its destination.After Qi Yubai entered, he didn't even take off his suit, he went straight to the kitchen and turned on the light, but he didn't find anything after looking around.

He unbuttoned a button of his shirt, took out his mobile phone, looked through the SMS records, and searched patiently again, but he still couldn't find it, so he dialed the number of the perpetrator.

The time has passed midnight, and Lin Nan also finished work late today. When he returned to his room, he chatted with He Shan for a while, and now he just lay down.

He was taken aback when he saw the incoming call reminder on his mobile phone. He didn't expect that Qi Yubai would call himself on his own initiative, and at such a late hour, he quickly picked up and said, "Mr. Qi?"

"Yeah." Qi Yubai on the other end of the phone held up his phone and bent down to check the ground under the cooking table.

"Why are you calling me so late?"

Qi Yubai frowned slightly, "Didn't you send me a text message saying that half a pear fell in my kitchen and reminded me to throw it away?"

Lin Nan sat up from the bed in a second, and was stunned for a moment before whispering under the quilt: "Really... I thought you didn't see my text message, and you didn't reply."

It sounded a little wronged, and it seemed that it was Qi Yubai's fault again.

"I'm working, how can I have the time to reply to such text messages." Qi Yubai said while opening the cabinet door under the sink, squatting down to check again, and said impatiently after finding nothing: "That damned pear Where the hell is it?"

Lin Nan felt resentful, and his text messages sounded as if they were worthless.But he didn't dare to be negligent, he said "Ooooh" twice, and said, "Let me think about it... I will remember it right away..."

Qi Yubai straightened up, with an undetectable smile in his eyes, stood by the cooking counter and waited for a moment, then said, "Your 'soon' has arrived."

"Hmm..." Lin Nan muttered, "Is there anything on the dining table?"

"No."

"What about the place for the seasoning?"

"No."

"What about the disinfection cabinet?"

"No."

Lin Nan protested in a low voice: "Have you read it? Why did you say no so quickly..."

"You—" Qi Yubai became very angry, "I've seen it a long time ago."

"Oh." Lin Nan hesitated again, and after thinking for a long time suddenly came to inspiration, "I know! It's in the refrigerator!"

Qi Yubai rubbed his swollen temples, took the phone away, walked to the refrigerator and opened the doors on both sides, and saw the blackened pears inside.

"found it."

Lin Nan breathed a sigh of relief on the other end of the phone: "That's great... you can throw it away, it must be broken..."

Qi Yubai took out the pear bowl with two fingers, and threw the pears and the bowl into the trash can with a bang.

"Lin Nan."

"Ok?"

"Next time you dare to forget to dispose of leftovers, I'll throw you away."

Hearing his serious tone, Lin Nan didn't feel like he was joking. He shrank his neck and said softly, "Understood." Then he whispered twice into the microphone: "Don't be angry."

"I'm hanging up for nothing else."

"and many more!"

Qi Yubai felt that he had gotten used to being stopped every time he hung up the phone.He didn't leave his mobile phone from his ear, and said slowly: "What's the matter?"

Lin Nan jumped up from the bed, said "wait for me", ran to the desk to get a piece of paper, and then retreated to the bed.

Qi Yubai listened to the movement on his side, and tapped his fingers on the cooking table in a relaxed and rhythmic manner. He didn't look anxious at all, but said in his mouth: "'Xiao' has arrived."

Lin Nan took the paper and turned on the bedside lamp, and the not-so-bright warm yellow light shone on the letter paper, reflecting a few lines of girlish handwriting.

"Today the crew visited the set, and a fan gave me a letter." He shyly changed his mobile phone to an external player, holding the letter paper with both hands to avoid damage.

"Oh?" Qi Yubai frowned, stood in the bright kitchen and looked outside, and finally walked to the dark living room and sat down.

"What does it have to do with me?"

Lin Nan pursed his lips and said, "It really doesn't matter, but I want to tell Mr. Qi."

Qi Yubai changed from sitting to lying on his back on the sofa, with his head resting on the armrest, his left hand under his head, his right hand holding the phone, and his legs crossed.

"Then don't waste time, just talk."

Lin Nan paused for a moment, and said in a cheerful tone, "It's written in the letter that she met me three weeks ago. Although it hasn't been a long time, she already wants to see a real person."

Qi Yubai listened to the nasty words written by these little girls, his mind was not working at all, so he hummed without distraction.

"I also said which look of mine I like the most."

"Ah."

"In the end, he told me to pay attention to my body, don't be too tired from filming, and..." Lin Nan smiled, "I will always support me."

"That's all?" Qi Yubai asked suddenly.

Lin Nan was taken aback: "That's all."

"I can't guess more than that." Qi Yubai was tired from raising his right hand, so he switched the phone to his left, his voice was very clear in the silent living room, "Didn't you say I like you, I love you?"

Lin Nan shook his hand holding the letter, almost suspecting that Qi Yubai had installed a monitor on him, otherwise how would he know what he skipped.

"how do you know……"

Qi Yubai calmly said: "If you don't even write this in the love letter, isn't it a waste of time?"

"I haven't received it before, so I don't understand it." After Lin Nan said this, he suddenly realized that Qi Yubai seemed to have just told him that he likes you and loves you, and his heart skipped a beat when he recalled it.

"Finish?" Qi Yubai moved his head on the sofa uncomfortably.

"It's over. Mr. Qi, are you lying down?" Lin Nan heard the sound of cloth rubbing, thinking that Qi Yubai had already laid down on the bed.

"Yes." Qi Yubai didn't bother to explain.

"Then did I delay your sleep again?"

"Yes." Qi Yubai said without thinking, "You always waste my time."

Lin Nan shrank his neck when he heard his words on the other end of the phone, "I didn't mean it, and I didn't know you would call me so late."

When he said this, Qi Yubai was speechless for a moment. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure out how to attribute the fault to Lin Nan, so he could only say in a calm voice: "Is it still my fault?"

"No... I didn't mean that..."

"I let you too much, don't I?"

When Lin Nan heard this, he could only softly say "my fault" twice into the microphone, and begged him softly, "don't be angry".

Qi Yubai seemed to feel better physically and mentally now.He got up from the sofa, walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows and looked at the few lights left in the building next door, and said with a very low smile: "It's the first time I've met someone who has never seen the world like you, and I have to get fans' letters too." I'll read it."

He thought everyone was a big star, and they would be dismissive of fans' wishes. He didn't expect Lin Nan to cherish them so much. He only knew that people who acted dully didn't seem to need fans.

But this sentence only focused on the first three words in Lin Nan's ears.He felt sour when he heard it, and he lay down on the bed, covered his head with the quilt, and said in a low voice under the quilt: "Then what kind of things have you seen before?"

After finishing speaking, I felt a little regretful, and suspected that I had crossed the line.

He didn't know that Qi Yubai also deeply regretted talking too much tonight at this moment, and he was afraid that Lin Nan would think that he was moved and pestered him endlessly for no reason.

After a few seconds of silence on the phone, Qi Yubai said, "Okay, go to sleep."

Lin Nan was stunned for a moment, unexpectedly the topic would stop there, and said shyly, "Okay, good night, Mr. Qi."

The inexplicable start and abrupt end of the conversation makes people feel a little confused. The recent relationship between the two seems to be like this. Sometimes they seem to be very close, and sometimes they seem to be far apart. If I go further, you will retreat a little.

Qi Yubai closed the line, and when he walked from the window to the center of the living room, he stopped, his nerves suddenly became tense, and this happened repeatedly, almost out of his control.He turned his head and glanced at the closed entrance door, then he relaxed completely and turned his head to walk to the bedroom.
