The company got off work at six o'clock in the afternoon. Qiao Minglang was busy in the company until after six o'clock. The address sent on the message is in the past.
This time of getting off work is the peak period of traffic flow, there are many cars on the road, and the cars move very slowly.
At this time, it was already dark outside, the street lights on both sides of the road were lit up, the neon lights of the whole city were lit up, and the advertising walls lit up on the tall buildings were constantly changing.Every day in this city is so busy, there is a constant flow of cars on the road, one after another, the traffic lights in front are on, and the cars stop to let pedestrians go.
After living in this city for seven or eight years, Qiao Minglang has gradually gotten used to the pace of life in this city, to the lights in the dark, to always waiting behind the car in front, not in a hurry. slow.
There may be many people like him, from being unfamiliar with the city at first, to getting used to the city slowly, until everything in front of them has become accustomed to it.
Finally, when the car in front started to move, he drove behind the car in front, stepped on the accelerator a little, and the car drove very slowly.Fortunately, the place they agreed to eat in the past was not very far away, Qiao Minglang drove here before the time they agreed on.
"Excuse me, are you alone, or do you have an appointment?" the waiter at the door asked him.
"I made an appointment with a friend, I don't know if he's here yet." After he showed his identity, the waiter politely invited him in, "Oh, it's Mr. Qiao, please, that gentleman is already waiting for you inside. "
From a distance, Qiao Minglang saw the people sitting there waiting for him.
Seeing the young man led by the waiter, Huangfu stood up from his sitting position, with a smile on his face, waiting for the young man to walk in front of him.
"Hello senior. Sorry to keep you waiting." Walking in front of Huangfushen, Qiao Minglang said politely.
"It's okay, I just arrived not long ago." Huangfu pulled away the chair and invited Qiao Minglang to sit. In this world, the young man in front of him was probably the only one who could make him come here early and wait.But even so, he is still happy.
"Happy New Year. I have always wanted to invite you out for a meal during the Chinese New Year. I knew you were going back to your hometown for the New Year, so I had to wait for you to come." Huangfu put a small box in front of the young man, and said with the same smile on his face. : "This is a little thing I saw when I went abroad years ago. I just brought it back as a New Year's gift for you. Open it and see if you like it."
"Actually, it doesn't need to be like this." Even if he didn't open it, Qiao Minglang knew that what this person gave him would not be something casually bought from a roadside shop.
"Open it first and take a look. Don't rush to reject me. I think it suits you very well at first sight." No matter what he gave the young man every time, the young man would always find a reason to reject him, which made Huangfu I feel a little dislike in my heart.But because the person in front of him is someone he likes, he still hopes that the young man can accept the gift he chose for him.
They knew each other from college now, when he was in his senior year, Qiao Minglang had just entered his freshman year, so after he graduated, the boy at that time was still in school.But this doesn't affect him from chasing the people he likes, as long as there are people he wants to see, there is nothing he can't see.He never concealed his liking for the young man, but he was afraid of scaring the young man. Huangfu was very happy to continue to play the role of a good senior, and when he knew that the young man was going to set up a company and shop here in the capital, he would let others give him some convenience. It's just a matter of moving a finger.
But he knows that for young people, it is very troublesome to go through many examinations in order to obtain some certificates.Of course, he would never talk about these things and ask the young people for credit.
Compared to leaving the capital here after the young man graduated, he certainly hoped that the young man could stay in the place closest to him.Now his work is too busy, if the young man travels too far, it will be too much trouble for him to meet someone once.
Qiao Minglang took a deep look at Huangfu, and had no choice but to open the box. Inside was a pair of cuffs inlaid with sapphires. The cuffs were very delicate. At first glance, it was not a cheap gift, and he subconsciously refused, "This gift It's too expensive, I can't..."
"It's not something expensive. When I first saw this pair of cuffs, I thought it was very suitable for you. You keep it. This is my New Year's gift to you. It only happens once a year. Don't return it. Give it to me, then I will be very sad." In the second half of the sentence, Huangfu Shen said half-jokingly, not giving the young man a chance to reject him at all.
Walking back to his seat and sitting down, Huangfu raised his hand deeply, and a waiter came over.
Seeing the things in the box, Qiao Minglang sighed inwardly, only feeling a little pain in the head, every time this person always had a reason not to let him refuse, and he would never refuse him at all.
Huangfushen he met in college, at first he avoided this person like a snake and scorpion, but this person always had a way that he couldn't avoid and couldn't refuse.
As early as when he was in college, he could see Huangfushen's extraordinary status from the bodyguards who followed Huangfushen. It was only later that he knew what kind of existence the Huangfu Group was.In general, he can't afford to offend this person. In fact, Qiao Minglang doesn't want to get himself into such trouble if he can, but the other party has no intention of letting him go.
So when he received a phone invitation from this person, he had to come over.Can he say no once, twice, and a third time?Instead of making this person unhappy, it's better to come out and meet him.
Fortunately, this person is not so free every day to invite him to have dinner together. He knows that Huangfushen's work will only be busier than him, and he probably even squeezes out his time for eating.
The two of them actually didn't meet very often, at most they only saw each other once a month or two, and if Huangfushen was sometimes busier, they might only see him once every three to five months.He thinks it's best for the two of them to meet at such a frequency. If they meet once every three to five months, at most three or two times a year, he treats him as an ordinary customer for a meal. That's it.
Qiao Minglang thought it would be better if this person didn't always find a reason to give him a gift every time. Such a favor would make him feel a little hard to repay, especially such an expensive gift that he actually couldn't afford to repay.In the house where he lives, there is a cabinet dedicated to storing these gifts. One cabinet is already full, and he is continuing to put it in the second cabinet. He hopes that there will be no third cabinet.
It took almost two hours for two people to eat a meal together.
"Do you have anything else to do at night? Why don't we go for a walk outside, we haven't seen each other for a long time, I want to talk to you?" After dinner, Huangfu Shen didn't really want the young man to go back, After finally finding time to spare one night to meet the young man, he hoped to spend more time with the young man.
In fact, if possible, he would like to confess his feelings for him to the young man. The young man is willing to be with him, and it would be best if he could move to live with him.Of course he knew the idea was good, and now he could only think about it.
From the moment they realized it, he had never concealed his liking for the young man. If the young man also liked him, he wouldn't have given him no reaction until now.Then there is only one possibility, the young man in front of him does not like him as much as he likes him, and he also likes him. This guess makes him feel very bad, mixed with a little irritability.
Since he didn't use the idea of coercing the youth from the beginning, he doesn't intend to use that method to coerce the youth now.
Compared with people obtained by coercion, what Huangfu Shen wants more is that young people sincerely like him, and he is willing to walk into his arms. He is willing to spend time and slowly let young people adapt to his existence, and cultivate young people to love him. Feelings.He felt that as long as he worked harder, the result he wanted to meet would not be far away.
The screen of the phone lit up, and a text message came in, Qiao Minglang picked it up and took a look.Facing the expectant eyes of the person on the opposite side, he couldn't refuse, so he could only nod in the end and said, "Okay, then let's go for a walk."
***
There is a river opposite the place where they eat.The two of them got down from the place to eat, and instead of taking a car, they walked across the road and came to the opposite river.
On the opposite side of the river are also lit up lights, and on the opposite side are also tall buildings.
The wind at night was a bit cold. After walking down, Huangfushen realized that he had made a wrong decision. Looking at the young man's face flushed with cold, he couldn't help but smile and said, "I even forgot that it's still winter now." gone."
"Forget it, let's go back. To save you from blowing a cold, you have to rely on me to drag you to blow the night breeze."
Qiao Minglang smiled and said: "It's okay, I'm not very cold, I'll stand here for a while before going back." Looking at the sparkling river, it was a rare time to come by the river, he wanted to enjoy the wind before going back.
Now that the young man said so, Huangfu Shen had no choice but to accompany the young man and asked, "Did you have fun when you went back for the Chinese New Year?"
"It's okay." Qiao Minglang thought of the few days when he went back for the Chinese New Year. In fact, every day was very happy. The days with his family were the most relaxed and happiest time he had.It's a pity that the happy time is always too short.
Seeing the smile on the young man's face, Huangfu knew that the young man was really happy at home, but it was not so easy for their family to celebrate the New Year.Of course, as long as the youth is happy, he thinks it is more important than his own happiness.
