In the empty and quiet office, Qi Leran enjoys a Western-style meal alone. In fact, it doesn't matter what you eat, but whether or not there is anyone to accompany you to eat.

Just when Qi Leran speeded up his meal in a hurry, and was about to finish his meal and continue working, the lights in the whole office suddenly went out with a light "click" of the switch, and the city outside the half-floored window was brightly lit. The light from the office can only barely illuminate half of the entire office, and the other half that cannot be illuminated by light and shadow is even darker.

Surprised, Qi Leran suddenly turned her head to look at the dark office door, and with the slight sound of footsteps, a little light suddenly lit up.

Sterman's charming handsome face is even more charming under the light of the lighter held up in his hand. This man who seems to be born to walk between light and darkness is really dangerous and charming. It exudes charm all the time, making people unconsciously want to surrender.

Qi Leran stared blankly at the tall man slowly coming from the darkness, and couldn't help but secretly sighed in his heart, no wonder that George Evans was so crazy and paranoid, probably no one stayed by Sterman's side for a long time, People who really know him can resist this unique charm of him!

Sterman, who came slowly step by step from the door of the office, came to Qi Leran who was in a daze. Seeing him staring at him with a silly look, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he raised his hand and flicked his forehead lightly , whispered and said with a slight smile, "Little fool, why are you in a daze, you don't show any sign when you see your husband coming in!"

"Ah?" Qi Leran raised his hand and rubbed the forehead he had just knocked on, looked at Sterman with a blank expression and said, "I thought it was the boss who came to check the post!"

"Haha..." After hearing his words, Sterman was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter, raised his hand again to rub Qi Leran's soft black hair, and shook the already hot lighter in the other hand, shaking With a smile on his head, he said, "You little rascal, the atmosphere of such a romantic candlelight dinner being ruined by you is gone!"

That's what he said, but then he extinguished the lighter, sat down next to Qi Leran, leaned on him casually, and was fed by Qi Leran from time to time, but he felt that all the fatigue of the whole day had disappeared. , leaving only comfort and coziness.

In the office where light and dark intersect, the two of them happened to be sitting on that blurred boundary line. Under the reflection of the lights of the city, Qi Leran and Qi Leran, who were surrounded by a layer of white mist, leaned against him, covering most of their bodies. In the dark, Sterman, whose face cannot be seen clearly, is like the existence of two sides of one body, which is contradictory and harmonious.

In the silent office, the breathing of the two could be heard.

"Baby," after a long silence, Sterman whispered in a slightly hoarse voice, "I don't want you to get involved in this at all..."

There was a faint sigh in the darkness, and Qi Leran wanted to turn his head to look at Sterman, but Sterman's head rested on Qi Leran's shoulder, preventing him from moving.

"I can shield you from the wind and rain, and let you live a carefree life forever, but..." Maybe the darkness gave him cover, and Sterman's voice was tired and hoarse with a rare fragility and uncertainty His voice pierced through the darkness, beating Qi Leran's heart every sentence.

"I want to take you to see the most beautiful scenery, I want you to be able to proudly tell everyone about our relationship, I want you to be strong and happy even if you go through wind and rain, I want you to be happy even if I'm not here When it’s over, one can still…”

"I'm willing..." Qi Leran, whose eyes were reddened by the series of "I want you" from Sterman, raised his hand to cover Sterman's big hand on his lap, and said softly, shaking Cut off what Sterman didn't finish next.

Yes, I do!Even when I haven't understood your good intentions, I am willing!

For Qi Leran, who is not so good and not so transparent, what is love?But wherever you go, I will go there. When you become famous, I will applaud you; when you are frustrated, I will guard and accompany you, that's all.

"I am willing..." Sterman repeated these three words silently between his lips, and a smile that could not be concealed appeared at the corner of his mouth. He suddenly sat up straight, and took off the A platinum ring that he has been wearing all the time is held up in front of Qi Leran.

"This platinum ring was a gift from my mother when I was an adult, and now I will give it to you," Sterman put the ring solemnly in Qi Leran's palm, looking into his eyes, He said solemnly, "I hope that in the near future, I can hear your three words 'I do' in front of everyone!"

The exquisite platinum ring shines brightly under the bright city lights, just like the Lord of the Rings in fairy tales, it seems to have some kind of magical power, and people can't help but want to hold it tightly.

"Can I..." Qi Leran desperately controlled his urge to put it away immediately, raised his head to look at Sterman, who couldn't see his face clearly in the dark, and asked in a low voice with some uncertainty.

"Should it be me?" Sterman's eyes full of tenderness slowly poked out bit by bit from the darkness, asking silently.

Can I be the most important person in your life?No matter what happens in the future, can I make you trust me unconditionally?Can I invite you to spend the rest of my life together?

In the dark border, Sterman's face is still unclear, but his tender eyes are as bright as stars in the sky, full of hope.

Qi Leran suddenly looked up at his bright smile, tightly held the significant platinum ring in his hand, and whispered back "We can!"

At the junction of light and shadow, two men who share the same mind deeply kissed together. As long as we have you, no matter how much wind and rain there is in the future, we will have nothing to fear!

After a long time, after the two separated again gave a gentle hug, Sterman suddenly stood up and walked slowly out of the office. There was still a problem waiting for him to deal with outside.

Qi Leran tightly held the platinum ring in his hand, and watched his leaving back. When he reached the door, Sterman stopped suddenly, looked back at Qi Leran who had been looking at him, and said in a low voice, "Help I will keep it safe, and I will exchange it with another ring of greater significance in the near future." Then he strode out.

Although Sterman has already left, Qi Leran, who didn't understand the hidden meaning of his words at all, nodded heavily. Yes, the significance of this ring is really too great. He is only once in Sterman's life The coming-of-age gift, I will take good care of it!

Although Qi Leran didn't understand, Sterman, who had already made a promise, felt in a good mood. Although he was very tired, he still walked out of the elevator briskly.

As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he saw Ivans smoking a cigarette leaning against the door of the elevator, and Sterman couldn't help but slow down.

"You're back!" Ivans greeted Sterman as soon as he came out of the elevator, and threw the half-smoked cigarette into the trash can next to the elevator, as if I had something to say. What you said.

Sterman put one hand into his trouser pocket, glanced at him lightly, then quickened his pace again, and walked to his office first.

Although Sterman just glanced at Ivans lightly and didn't say anything, Ivans paused involuntarily, and a feeling of annoyance surged up from the bottom of his heart in an instant, and he followed Sterman so much. After a long time, why was he still so impulsive, he couldn't hold his breath at all, and lost the opportunity for nothing.

However, the more this is the case, the stronger the admiration and admiration for Sterman in Ivans' heart, and the more urgent the feeling of accompanying him to become king!

Ivans followed behind Sterman and entered his office. Sterman walked in without turning on the light, leaned against the desk, took out a pack of cigarettes from the drawer, took out one, and put it in the The mouth was lit, and after taking a deep breath, he slowly exhaled a puff of smoke.

Outside the large floor-to-ceiling windows, the city lights as bright as the Milky Way were not as eye-catching as the man's casual actions. Standing at the door, Ivans' mood, which had just calmed down, boiled again.

In front of the man who came a few steps away, he stared at Sterman, who was vaguely hidden in the smoke, and suppressed the complex emotions that surged up, and asked in a deep voice, "Why not me?"

The man who doesn't smoke often let out a slight cough from his throat, looked down at the cigarette sandwiched between the index finger and middle finger of his left hand, and asked lightly, "Why you?"

"Why me..." Ivans had a painful and resentful look on his face, and the emotions he had suppressed all afternoon spewed out. He put his hands on the desk and shouted angrily, "Why me? You clearly know that, I admire you so much, love you, no matter what you want to do, I will stand by your side to support you and help you, but you chose that incompetent, yellow-skinned oriental boy who knows nothing! "

He looked at Sterman's expressionless face, stood up straight suddenly, and approached Sterman step by step, and barely stopped when the two were close at hand, staring at Sterman's eyes In that strange excited tone, he continued, "You clearly know that only I, only I can help you stand on the highest peak, be the one who overlooks everything and controls everything, and I can accompany you to become king!"

Sterman, who was only a short distance away from him, did not flinch in the slightest. He also stared into his eyes and asked lightly, "Aren't we doing what you said?"

"No, no, no..." Ivans, who was caught by Sterman's rhetorical question, turned around angrily and walked back and forth in the office several times before roaring again, "This is different! Don't change the concept secretly! I It's about being your lover like Qi Leran, who will always be by your side!"

"Love?" Sterman sneered, and flicked only one-third of the cigarette butts in his hand into the trash can beside the desk. He asked softly, "Do you love me?"

Although Ivans was irritated by his attitude again, he still replied firmly, "Yes, I love you! Otherwise, why would I give up a promising career and come to follow you on this unknown and dangerous journey!"

"It's such a blessing to be loved by someone..." Sterman stood up suddenly, walked slowly to the floor-to-ceiling windows, facing the city lights that someone once said was as beautiful as duckweed, and said slowly in a lonely tone "George, I'm very tired. Maybe everything in front of me is not what I really want. Let's find a beautiful place to live in seclusion. Would you like it?"

There was a hint of longing in his tone of silence, as if he was looking forward to the future he said, but on the large floor-to-ceiling windows, there was a mocking smile on the corners of his eyes and brows.

"What?" Ivans, who just said that he loves him and wants to be with him forever, was not at all happy when he heard what he said, but shouted in surprise, "What did you say?! How could you Give it all up, you can't do it! I will never let you do it either!"

"Look," Sterman turned around slowly, with a mocking smile on the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, and said lightly, "Evans, the person you love is not me, but standing on top of everyone, I am wearing a gorgeous coat, and when I take off this gorgeous coat, I am worthless in your eyes..."

Sterman waved his hand to stop Ivans' defense, and then said, "Although your ability is not worthy of your ambition now, in time, I believe you will be able to..."

He walked slowly to Ivans who listened to his words and looked a little dazed, patted his shoulder, leaned into his ear, and said in a low voice, "Why put your dreams on others... "

Sterman's words were low and soothing, with an inexplicable demagogic force, which firmly imprinted the unfinished meaning of his words in Ivans' heart until he had left, and Ivans who was standing still was still there. He repeated his last words in a low voice over and over again.

I don't know how long it has passed, in the silent night, the statue-like man suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, yes, why am I so stupid!Instead of following and assisting someone all your life, why not become the person to be followed and supported by yourself, stand on the highest peak, and become the person who overlooks everything and controls everything!Then you can't get what you want!

The current self is still too small. Only by pushing Sterman to that position can he become stronger. Inspired by Sterman, Ivans, who has figured out all this, walked quickly to his office. There is so much to do, there is no room for delay!

After finishing his work, he came up to Sterman to see if he could go with him. Qi Leran, who hid outside the office and witnessed the whole process, followed Sterman, and asked in a worried voice, "You do this...remind him like this , don’t be afraid that he will betray you if he has some ideas!”

Sterman naturally took Qi Leran's hand, dragged Qi Leran with a worried face to the elevator, and replied lazily, "He wants to get in the position quickly, so he has to hold me tighter and work hard to help me win the election." If he is successful, get to that position, otherwise, with his current appearance, why?"

"But...but if you really become the president, wouldn't he be very dangerous?" After listening to Sterman's explanation, Qi leran felt a little more relaxed, but continued to ask with some concern.

Sterman helplessly raised his hand and tapped Qi Leran's forehead, shook his head, and said with a smile, "I've already become the president, and it's not a matter of saying whether I need him, but I need you to worry about me here! "

The four words "Worries" were actually spoken in Chinese. After he finished speaking, he smiled arrogantly at Qi Leran, blinked at him, and asked jokingly, "How is it? My idiom Didn't learn well!"

"Is now the time to talk about this!" Qi Leran was dumbfounded by his sudden action, but seeing his playful expression, he couldn't help but think that the idiom that once made him both painful and happy can only hurry Changing the subject, he said in a low voice, "Let's go back quickly, what time is it, and we have to work tomorrow!"

Sterman, who has been keen on learning idioms since he came back from country Z, smiled and didn't speak, but just followed him into the elevator.

At Sterman's insistence, James sent Qi Leran back to the apartment first, and then drove Sterman away. After the shadow of the car was no longer visible, Qi Leran turned and went home.

Opening the door of the apartment, Qi Haoxuan was sitting on the sofa watching TV, seeing him coming in, immediately greeted him enthusiastically, "Brother, you are back, why did you come back so late today?"

Qi Leran didn't tell Qi Haoxuan about going to work in the presidential election office. Following the principle that one thing more is worse than one thing less, Qi Leran didn't pay much attention to him, let alone tell him about it Some are gone.

So when Qi Leran heard the words, he just nodded at him and didn't say anything. However, when he just walked to the door of his room and was about to go back to the room to change clothes, he heard the male announcer's low voice coming from the TV in the hall. Pleasant voice.

"This station has just received news that the well-known lawyer Kevin Sterman will formally represent the Social Democratic Party in the national presidential election to be held in late January next year. The leader of the Social Democratic Party, Drizzt Oliver, has made a public speech this afternoon, claiming that Kevin Sterman He is the most suitable and powerful presidential candidate among the Social Democrats, and the Social Democrats will fully support him in the presidential election..."

Sitting on the sofa, Qi Haoxuan, who was about to come over, suddenly froze in place, and tightened his hand holding the remote control. That person is really going to run for president!If... If he really becomes president, then Qi Leran... the Qi Leran who lives in the same room with him will...

Qi Haoxuan didn't dare to think about it anymore, the unwillingness, resentment, and reluctance in his heart flooded his heart like a tide, no!He can't just watch all this happen, this should be the life he wants to live!

Except for this opportunity, there will never be such an opportunity again, Qi Haoxuan stared at the high-spirited Sterman on the TV screen, and suddenly a bold idea came from the bottom of his heart!
