The Continuation of Only You

It was almost noon when they came out of the cemetery, and the two quickly drove back to the city.Lin Ran has booked a membership-only private restaurant—Jingjiang Pavilion, which is built on the most conspicuous mountain in the city. The environment here is not only simple and elegant, comfortable and quiet, but also the dishes are among the most exquisite and delicious in the dining circle of C City. It can integrate the essence of the eight major cuisines and continue to innovate, but what is more preferred by the locals is the coexistence of local specialties and delicacies that can be integrated into art, with distinctive regional symbols and cultural connotations. Another kitchen comparable to your own kitchen.

The two chose a table next to the window and sat opposite each other. The green vegetation outside the window had been carefully taken care of. It didn't seem like it had just suffered the ravages of winter, but the warm early spring sunshine had already covered the greenery.

Lin Ran ordered a few dishes with ease. Although Xu Yihan grew up in England since he was a child, his aunts and chefs were all specially invited from C City, so his diet is generally mainly Chinese food, especially C. The local eating habits in the city are the mainstay, so for him to come here, he does not feel much discomfort in life, and his not picky stomach also laid a solid foundation for him to adapt quickly.After the waiter backed away, the two chatted without a word.

"Brother Lin Ran." A clear male voice sounded, and the two turned their heads to look at the speaker at the same time.It turned out to be Song Chenyuan, the only son of the Song Group in C City.

"Hey, Chen Yuan, what a coincidence." Because the Song family and the Lin family have very close business contacts, they are naturally familiar with each other.

"What a coincidence, I haven't met brother for a long time." Then he looked at the stranger sitting opposite Lin Ran, "Who is this?" Then he looked at Lin Ran questioningly: "It looks strange." Song Chenyuan Although the talent is slightly inferior to Yan Ziheng, but he is sweet-mouthed, polite, and general. Even if he often hangs out with Yan Shao, he is more restrained than him and knows how to measure.

Lin Ran glanced at Xu Yihan who was holding a teacup and sipping tea by himself, "This is Xu Yihan, my friend from when I was studying abroad. He just came from England."

Although this name has never appeared in the family with a little reputation in the business world of C City, but Song Shao heard that he was Lin Ran's friend, so he must have some background.The second young master of the Lin family is very picky when it comes to making friends. Those who have casual acquaintances with him are not considered friends in the true sense in his eyes. Since he can introduce him as a friend, it depends on his identity or ability. There is a source, so Song Chenyuan, who has a little knowledge of the world, hurriedly stretched out his right hand respectfully, "Hello, brother Yihan, my name is Song Chenyuan." Unexpectedly, this child is so sweet and sensible, which made Xu Yihan suddenly surprised, and hurriedly put down the teacup in his hand , stood up, and politely shook this Young Master Song's hand, and slightly raised the corner of his lips: "Hello."

Xu Yihan didn't like being too polite with others, so seeing that the two had gotten to know each other, Lin Ran hurriedly took control to avoid embarrassment.

"Chen Yuan, are you alone?"

"Oh, no, I have an appointment with a friend." Song Shao quickly explained.

"Do you have a lot of friends? Why don't we eat together? I'll add a few more dishes." Xu Yihan, who was sitting across from him, glanced at him when he heard this. Xin, his mischief still failed to escape the eyes of the law. After all, Xu Yihan had known Yan Ziheng to some extent before coming to C City. Of course, it is not surprising that he knew about Song Chenyuan.

"Thank you bro, I won't bother you anymore, my friend will be here in a while, let's meet again when we find a chance." After speaking, he nodded to Xu Yihan, "Eat slowly, I'll go back to the table first."

Lin Ran responded politely: "Okay, let's find another chance. Today, your table will be charged to my account, and I will treat you."

"No need," Song Shao smiled slyly, "Leave it for next time, I don't have to pay for it today." After speaking, he turned and walked towards a table not far behind Xu Yihan.

The dishes were served on the table one after another, just as Xu Yihan was picking up the chopsticks to pick up the dishes, "Ziheng, here" came from not far away. Suddenly, a sound flew out of the sky, which made his hand holding the chopsticks stop in the air. For half a second, he is a person who is not prone to emotional turmoil and is not surprised by changes.

Lin Ran raised his eyes to look at the slightly strange face on the opposite side, and soon, the momentary stagnation was covered by the next coherent action of picking vegetables, and everything was as usual.

Even though he could roughly guess that he would appear when he saw Song Chenyuan, and he was a little bit psychologically prepared, but when he did appear, he still felt a little startled.Although they have never met each other and are completely strangers, their fate has long made them inextricably linked.I never thought that on the second day when I came to C City, I would meet Yan Ziheng unexpectedly just after paying homage to Yan Yusheng.

Lin Ran crossed Xu Yihan and looked at the direction Yan Ziheng came in. This kid was born with a face that could provoke a peach blossom, with a straight and slender nose, and prominent lips with a moderate thickness. Gloomy, adding a bit of elusive alienation to the delicate face.Although the figure is considered tall and straight, but a little thin.Wearing a Dolce & Gabbana camel-colored wool knee-length coat, he has fair skin, and he doesn't look like a brave man who can go through the battlefield. I don't know if his immature heart can withstand the greater wind and rain in the future.

Yan Shao, who was walking towards Song Chenyuan, noticed the eyes looking at him not far away, and when he looked back according to the feeling, Lin Ran had already withdrawn his eyes, and was raising his glass to touch the red wine glass in front of Xu Yihan.Yan Ziheng recognized one of them as the second young master of the Lin family who had met a few times, but the other only left him with a broad and thick back.Because Lin Ran was not very familiar with him, there was no need for him to bother him, so he went straight to Song Chenyuan and sat down.

"Did you see that person with Brother Lin Ran?" Song Chenyuan asked impatiently as soon as he sat down and before he had time to take off his coat.

"I saw it, but it's not very clear, it's just the back view. What's wrong."

"Brother just introduced him as his friend, you know, he rarely introduces others as friends, don't you think that person is very unusual?" Song Chenyuan said mysteriously.

Hearing what he said, I couldn't help but look back at that person again, but most of what I saw was the back, but the side face was slightly exposed than before, and it was still not clear enough, "Oh—do you know who he is?"

"I don't know," a little disappointed emotion came up, "I heard that he came from England, so he just said 'Hello' to me, he may not like to meet people, but you can see that he is not an ordinary person. He is a man with a bit of majesty in his elegance, and I seem to respect him very much." Little by little recalled the scene he saw just now and analyzed this mysterious figure.

"Oh, it's so mysterious." Song Chenyuan's description somewhat piqued his interest, "You're so curious, so go and inquire about it."

"I guess it might be Lin's executive who came back from headhunting abroad. I remember that my brother seems to have graduated from Imperial Business School, which is full of talents and the cradle of business elites. My dad blamed me for being worthless. I just graduated in China, so I can only hope that there is nothing I can do there, and I'm afraid I won't be able to graduate if I go there." There is a moment of envy and a moment of lamentation.

"Oh, mixing with me will inevitably delay you, blame me, you should stay away from me as soon as possible, now you have a chance to go home and be a good baby." Yan Ziheng rolled his eyes impatiently.

"Ziheng, I don't mean to blame you. Without you, it would be difficult for me to graduate from a domestic university. It's just a pity that you have such a good talent. How could it be wasted? I just feel sorry for you." Song Chenyuan said sincerely. Busy explained.

"Okay, don't worry about me, I don't want to learn, I don't have that interest." His face was displeased, "Have you ordered the food? Why hasn't it been served? I'm starving to death."

The two stopped talking about the unpleasant topic just now, and instead chatted about the jokes at the nightclub last night.

The two people who had finished eating here were about to get up and leave, Lin Ran pretended to be casual and asked, "Shall we go to that table to say hello before leaving?" He turned his head slightly towards Yan Shao's table.

"You go, I'll wait for you in the car." Xu Yihan glanced at him, and replied lightly.

"You don't want to go, why should I go?" He paused, feeling a little disappointed, "I just think that since we met by chance today, it's okay to get acquainted first, so as not to be too busy. Since you're not interested , then let's go."

"When it's time to face it, we can't escape, so there's no need to do anything extra." As he spoke, he took steady steps.

Lin Ran shrugged and followed Xu Yihan towards the door.

When Xu Yihan turned to leave, just as Yan Ziheng raised his head, he happened to catch a glimpse of the two leaving from the corner of his eye, and couldn't help looking sideways at his face.This unintentional glance revealed a burst of inexplicable heart palpitations, a moment of panic for no reason, and his eyelids twitched a few times.

Yan Ziheng's body trembled almost imperceptibly, and he didn't know what kind of sign it was.

Looking at the figure in the distance, I have a judgment on his appearance in my heart. This person should be taller and stronger than him, with a well-proportioned figure, steady gait, calm and calm.Just like what Song Chenyuan said, he is not a simple person. Although his face is expressionless, there is always a faint sense of calm and self-prestige coming to him, making him vigilant to restrain himself.

Not only sighed in his heart, fortunately he has nothing to do with such a person, otherwise he would be his opponent.

When Xu Yihan returned to the apartment, it was already after dinner.Lin Ran bought him a full set of daily necessities and a week's worth of refrigerator storage. Looking at the pile of goods, he raised the corners of his lips helplessly.The second youngest of the Lin family seems to be out of tune, but he is really a warm-hearted man in his heart, and he should be matched with a good woman.

After Xu Yihan picked it up, he dialed Matt's phone number first, and after a few instructions, he dialed out his father's phone number. Xu Li, who just woke up from lunch and heard the phone vibrating, couldn't wait to connect, "Hey, Yi Han?"

"Dad, it's me."

"Did you go to see your Uncle Yan?" There was unconcealed eagerness in the words.

Xu Yihan pursed his lips, and said with a gloomy expression: "Dad, I went to see it."

"Oh, good to see."

Xu Yihan didn't answer, and was silent for a while.

"That……"

Xu Li was about to say something more, but he grabbed the conversation: "Dad, are you ready to go back to City C?"

Xu Li was caught off guard by the sudden question, helpless gloom rose between his brows, and there was another brief silence.

"Yihan, I..."

Xu Yihan's heart couldn't help but aching. He couldn't bear his father to suffer more heartache, but he didn't want to see him bear too many emotional shackles. He hoped that his father could get out of the shadow of the past and let go of his heart. Release the chains of self-blame.He was cruel and heartless, but he still didn't allow his father to escape any longer.

"Dad, Uncle Yan is preparing a joint tomb," the heretical Xu Li couldn't help being startled, but before he could recover from his anxiety, he heard a low voice: "It's the direction where the sun is setting. You can see the afterglow of the river. Your favorite chrysanthemums are planted all around." After Xu Yihan finished speaking, he couldn't help worrying, he didn't want to hide his father Yan Yusheng's intentions, they all just hoped that he could get out of the past and let go of the emotions that had troubled him for many years.

Xu Li inserted his hands into his hair, grasping the weather-stained hair tightly, and warm tears welled up in his eyes.

Xu Yihan listened quietly to the sound on the phone, sobbing faintly.

Xu Li's phone was suddenly pulled out of his hands, and Matt's voice sounded: "Han?"

"Matt, take good care of my dad and call me if you need something."

"OK."

"Bey—"

"Bey—"

Sometimes, cruelty is nothing more than the best possible rescue for someone in deep trouble.
