Chapter 8 Broken

Yinuo looked at his phone, walked to the window and pressed answer.

The night is like a black cloth covering the sky, the lights outside the window are bright, the long road is like a fiery snake, stretching into the distance... What does the distant place look like? Will it be warmer? Is it simpler? Is it kinder?

Yinuo's hands unconsciously twisted the half-open curtains, facing the window, saying something, promising something,...

"Oh! Got it."

"Um!"

"Um!"

"Well! I'll hang up then."

Yinuo hung up the phone and stood by the curtain for a long time without moving. From that slender back, he seemed to feel lonely and lost.

——

"Let's have dinner together tonight?" Ding Shuai called Chen Yang in a nonchalant tone.

"Who is there?" Chen Yang looked through the documents and asked.

"Just those few people, oh! And Ji Chen." Ding Shuai said happily.

Chen Yang stopped turning over documents and asked in surprise, “Ji Chen is back?"

"I went to pick up my sister at the airport, and I felt a stream of air-conditioning approaching me. I was wondering where such powerful air-conditioning came from. I shrank my head, turned around and saw - it turned out to be Ji Chen, the big iceberg, standing behind me. It's really a big iceberg that has not melted for thousands of years. The global temperature has risen and the icebergs in the Arctic Circle have melted. Why didn't he melt? Haha!" Ding Shuai Luo Li teased Ji Chen.

Chen Yang:"……"

On the other end of the phone, Ding Shuai couldn't stop laughing...

Chen Yangfei said in his belly: Do you dare to say this in front of Ji Chen? Chen Yang touched his chin, Ding Shuai really might dare to say that. He is the one who lacks strength.

"Hey! Come tonight! It's the same place." Ding Shuai asked.

Chen Yang responded and hung up the phone.

Unexpectedly, Ji Chen came back at the end of the year. I thought he was staying in France for the New Year! A French winery was built? Chen Yang shook his head and thought: Impossible. Last week, it was said that it would not be completed until March or April. I don’t know why I came back this time?

——

Chen Yang left as promised, pushed open the door of the private room, and felt a burst of hot air.

Chen Yang glanced past Ding Shuai and did not see Ding Shuai. Instead, Ji Chen was sitting in the corner, smoking a cigarette. Chen Yang walked towards him...

"Chen Yang, you're late, so you'll have to drink as a punishment. Do you think you should?"

Chen Yang was intercepted by Fan Cheng halfway.

Fan Cheng, the youngest of the Fan family, is usually arrogant and rude, and they even played together when they were young. Later, his behavior became more and more public. After arguing for a waiter, the relationship between Chen Yang and Fan Cheng became farther and farther away, and even became a little stiff. Recently, his uncle was promoted again. His eyes almost reached the top of his head, but he could not overpower Chen Yang.

Fan Cheng poured a full glass of white wine and handed it over with ill intentions.

There was a roar below...

Chen Yang took the cup and drank it in one gulp. Chen Yang poured the wine glass towards Fan Cheng, leaving no trace of wine left. Then, Chen Yang put the wine glass back and without saying a word, turned around and walked towards Ji Chen.

Looking back, remember to ask Ding Shuaishao to associate with Fan Cheng. Sooner or later, this guy will fall into the hands of others. Chen Yang thought to himself, he was afraid of getting his hands dirty when he dealt with this guy!

Fan Cheng looked at Chen Yang's leaving figure, his little eyes rolled around twice, shining with an obscure light...

"When did you become a good gentleman?" Ji Chen joked, with a smile on his iceberg-like face.

"I'm twenty-nine, so I don't have time to pay attention to him." Chen Yang said gracefully.

"I'm afraid, if something goes wrong, your mother will have a hard time, right?" Ji Chen chuckled.

Chen Yang glanced sideways at Ji Chen and said, "Is your mother having a good time?"

"Fan didn't pick on me." Ji Chen shook his head.

"Hmph! Who did Ding Shuai invite?" Chen Yang snorted unhappily.

Ji Chen smiled and said, "Ding Shuai just loves a lot of people. Lively!"

"It's so exciting!" Chen Yang glared, and then asked, "Why did you come back a few years ago? Didn't you say it wouldn't be until March?"

Chen Yang sat down, leaned on the sofa, handed Ji Chen a cigarette, took out a cigarette himself, lit it, and lit a cigarette for Ji Chen.

Faces were blurred in the diffuse smoke.

"It's not my mother." Ji Chen blew out a puff of smoke, and the smoke ring gradually dissipated.

"Same world, same mother." Chen Yang sighed.

He couldn't help but think that today, Chen's mother was still calling, “Yangyang! When will you go home? Today is the 29th of the New Year, and tomorrow will be the 30th night. Your brother and sister-in-law will come back tonight, when will you go home?" Return?"

"tomorrow."

"Tomorrow! You have to go back early tomorrow. The couplets with the word "Fu" at home are waiting for you to post when you come back..."

Why do you have to wait for me to come back and post it, can't you, Dad? Brother, can't you? If it still doesn't work, just let Lao Wang post it. Chen Yang only complained in his heart and did not dare to say a word to his mother. Otherwise, his father would have a difficult time!

"...Are you bringing your girlfriend back? I heard that you and Qi Fanman get along well. I haven't seen what she looks like. You bring her back for me to see?..."

This is probably what my mother wants to say the most! It's a pity that it can't be done.

Thinking about what his mother said on the phone, Chen Yang frowned.

"Why don't you bring a girlfriend back this year?"

Seeing Chen Yang frowning, Ji Chen asked knowingly.

"No." Chen Yang glanced at Ji Chen and asked, "Are you taking your girlfriend back?"

"No." Ji Chen said concisely.

"We share the same problem. Come and have a drink."

Chen Yang poured two glasses of wine.

"I'm different from you." Ji Chen took the wine and touched it before saying.

"You're different from me. I'm still talking about a girlfriend! You've been acting like a monk, not even one. It must be even more difficult at home!" Chen Yang raised his glass and laughed at Ji Chen.

"It's not half-assed." Ji Chen glanced sideways at him and took a sip of wine.

"Hey! What kind of girl are you looking for? Tall, short, thin and fat? There are so many women in front of you, but none of them suit your eyes?"

Chen Yang was curious, what kind of girl did Ji Chen like? I haven't seen him talk to anyone yet, not even a rumored girlfriend. Ji Chen is tall and masculine, with a face that looks like a carved sculpture. Ding Shuai can give him the word "handsome". There were as many as eight hundred women surrounding him. I've never seen him fall in love with anyone in so many years.

"Then what kind of girl do you want? You've been dating one girlfriend after another, but none of them satisfy your dick?" Ji Chen not only didn't answer the questions he asked, but instead asked him in return.

Are you satisfied?

That morning, the second child was ready to move again...

Xia Yinuo?

Chen Yang frowned slightly.

"Really?" Ji Chen was surprised and curious.

"That's just the second child who is satisfied. Everyone is the same to me." Chen Yang poured himself a glass of wine and drank it slowly, his expression gloomy.

Ji Chen wanted to ask more questions, but Chen Yang cut off the topic rudely.

"Let's not talk about this. How many days will you stay? Let's make an appointment at another time." Chen Yang cheered up and said.

"Maybe I'll leave after the New Year." Ji Chen thought for a while and said.

"Then it will be the third day of the Lunar New Year. Wait until you finish paying New Year greetings."

"OK."

Ji Chen and Chen Yang drank another drink.

"Chen Yang, Ji Chen, I just went out for a while, why did you two start drinking alone? Every time, you two would hide aside and whisper..."

Ding Shuai, who had just come in in a hurry from outside, swept over to Ji Chen's side and started shouting.

The atmosphere became lively when Ding Shuai arrived...

Chen Yang went back drunk. I slept dreamless all night until dawn. After Chen Yang woke up naturally, he rubbed his eyes. Sunlight poured in through the gaps in the undrawn curtains, illuminating the room, making it bright and warm.

New Year's Eve, tomorrow will be a new year, and the days are so busy that they don't stop for anyone.

Chen Yang rolled over and got up.

The corner of the quilt covering him brushed against a pink rag doll on the bedside table...

Chen Yang watched it roll several times on the ground...

The sound of something breaking reached my ears...

Chen Yang was like a robot whose power had been cut off, standing there stunned, letting the quilt fall to the ground, without any reaction...

The head turned mechanically thirty degrees,...

The rag doll rolled to the side of the bedside table, and a jade ring broken into two sections came into view. The broken mutton-fat jade ring, like a crescent moon, was rising and falling on the ground, shaking, shaking...

A jade ring?

broken……?

The ring is broken?

Are you telling me to stop it? Cut off the past? I couldn’t go back in the first place, so what have I been doing all these years?

Chen Yang stared blankly at the jade ring that was broken into two sections on the ground, with an unclear expression...

"Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding!" The cell phone on the bedside suddenly rang, and the screen flashed...

The ringing stopped for a long time, and after a while, the ringing rang again... The continuous ringing seemed to show that the caller was very patient.

"Mom." Chen Yang called lightly.

"What are you doing here? No one answered the phone after calling for a long time. When will you arrive? I'm waiting for you to have lunch." In addition to the nagging voice of Chen's mother, the naughty Wang Chen Simin from my brother's family was also heard on the phone. shouts.

The stiff Chen Yang seemed to be melted by a ray of warmth. He pulled up the fallen quilt and opened the curtains, letting the sunlight shine in and fill the entire room, heating up the inexplicable coldness in the room.

"Hey! Are you listening? Come back soon, I'm waiting for you?" Mom still has the same soft voice that she has heard for decades, and it has never changed.

"Yes! I'll be there in a minute." Chen Yang stood in front of the window and bathed in the sunshine, closed his eyes and said softly.

"Girlfriend?" Mother Chen asked again without giving up.

"No." Chen Yang darkened his face.

When Chen Yang returned home, he was tortured by Chen's mother.

"You're back! You really didn't bring a girlfriend with you?" Chen's mother walked over and looked behind Chen Yang. There was no trace of anyone. "You have so many internet celebrities and actresses reported on the Internet every day. No one from Guliang came back with you? You are quite handsome, but why can’t you keep a girlfriend? Hey! You are not incompetent, are you! If not? I’ll get some bullwhip to make up for it. That thing is terrible Well, your dad has also eaten it..."
