In the office, when I heard Qi Min's words, the coffee I just drank in my mouth almost spurted out, causing me to cough. I wiped my mouth with a tissue, looked at him seriously and asked, "Dude, do you know what the word 'happy to be a father' means and what context it is used in?"

Qi Min looked at me stunned and shook his head like a rattle, I felt that this child was hopeless, so he sighed and ignored him.

"Oops. Qi Min pushed me, "You continued, haven't told me what to do yet?"

"What's there to think about, either give birth or be killed, is it possible that you can still press the pause button to pause the development of the child in your belly like watching a movie, and then press the play button when you want?" After a pause, I slowed down my tone: "This matter, you should ask Xu Mengjun's opinion, as well as the thoughts of both parents, instead of asking me at the first time, I am not a child's mother." ”

Qi Min sighed with a worried look on his face, and I comforted him: "Pregnant in October, what are you panicking, you still have almost a year to prepare and adapt." ”

......

When I was busy until noon, I just thought about going downstairs to eat, but my mother called me, I was obedient, the phone call I made two days ago, and I didn't remember to call me back until today.

"Hey, Mom, what's wrong?"

"You called me two days ago, and I only noticed the missed call on the notification bar today, oh, by the way, I've already received the money you transferred to me, hey, you transferred so much back at once, are you enough for yourself?" Although the mother said this, her tone revealed joy.

"That's enough, if it's not enough, I won't turn around, Mom, you don't have to worry about me. ”

"Hey, well, how are you doing lately?

Every time my mother asks me about my work, I feel like I want to run away, because I haven't told my family the truth that I have registered a company, and I also have a 40% stake in the dark fragrance flower shop.

"Mom, let me tell you something, you should be mentally prepared. ”

My mother immediately became "alert": "What's the matter? Still mentally prepared, you won't resign and change jobs again, right?"

I gritted my teeth and confessed: "Oh no, in fact, I didn't look for a job a year ago, not long after I resigned from Xingchen International in December last year, I registered a company with a college classmate to start a business, I told you about my classmate, called Qi Min. ”

"Starting a business? Where did you get the money?

I saw that the time was a little longer, and I was so hungry that I couldn't do it, so I hurriedly made an excuse and said perfunctorily: "Reliable, reliable, the money I gave home is what I earned after starting a business, do you see that I gave so much money to go home when I went to work before? Mom, I won't tell you first, I haven't had lunch yet." ”

"Good, good. My mother just wanted to hang up the phone, but she added: "Hey, by the way, your brother Cheng Yu said that he was going to Guangzhou to find you today, so you can contact him then." ”

"Ah, why did Cheng Yu come to Guangzhou?"

"It's not that I haven't received an order from the construction site yet, so I said that I went over to see you, alas, you can accompany him, since the incident of Ke Ning's family during the New Year, it has hit him a lot, and now he doesn't talk as much as before, and the whole person is dull. ”

I was silent for a moment, and then replied: "Well, I see. ”

......

When I got off work in the evening, Cheng Yu really called me, and as soon as he called, I knew that someone must have arrived in Guangzhou, so as soon as I picked up the phone, I went straight to the point: "Where are you in Guangzhou? I will already be on my way to the vegetable market to buy vegetables." ”

Cheng Yu was silent for a while, obviously surprised by what I said: "It was my mother who told you about my coming to Guangzhou, right?"

"Well, what do you want to eat at night, or rather, what do you want to drink?"

"I just got off the highway, if there is no traffic jam, it will take about half an hour to get to where you live, you don't have to ask me a simple question like this, as for what kind of wine to buy, you just look at it." ”

After hanging up the phone, I took a ride back because the rush hour on Line 3 is not so "friendly". In just a short time on the phone, I found that Cheng Yu's style of speaking is different from before, he has become calm, crisp and neat, and he is not as joking as before, and I don't know if he is good or bad now.

During dinner, as soon as I had made the meal for a while, Cheng Yu came up, and to my surprise, this kid actually came with a small suitcase and bought two cigarettes in his hand, and he went crazy......

"You...... Are you going to stay with me for a long time?" I asked, looking at him stunned.

"Well, maybe a week, buddy, come and relax. He took out a pack of Yellow Crane Tower from his pocket, took out one of his own, lit it, and threw a whole pack of cigarettes to me, "I'll pack the cigarettes, you can watch the rest." ”

"Don't you smoke a lot? "I lit a cigarette and sat down at the table and brought him a glass of wine.

I saw Cheng Yu take a sip of the wine I had just poured, took a puff of cigarette and said, "What you said is the past me." ”

After three rounds of drinking, Cheng Yu's words began to increase, there were already two empty red wine bottles on the ground, and he handed me a cigarette again, good guy, I haven't seen him for two months, and it is even bigger than my addiction to smoking.

"This time I came to Guangzhou, I didn't just come to live with you, there are two important things to do, otherwise I wouldn't have dragged my suitcase to live with you for a week. ”

"How?"

"The first thing: I learned that Ke Ning went to Guangzhou, so I plan to spend three days looking for her; the second thing, the boss of the restaurant last time said that he would introduce his friend's order to me, and I will talk to the other party in the remaining two days. With that, he picked up his glass and drank the rest of the wine again, then poured another glass.

I asked, "And what about two more days?"

"Eat and drink at your place, don't think about anything, just stay quietly. ”

I was silent for a while, already infected by Cheng Yu's emotions, "In terms of business, you would rather spend two or three days looking for Ke Ning than spending more time talking about business, is there anything else going on? Do you know where Ke Ning is in Guangzhou now?"

Cheng Yu had an indifferent expression on his face, he shook his head and said: "I only know a rough idea, I heard that she went to a university over there to become a teacher in the university town, with her academic qualifications, there is indeed no problem, I will spend three days looking for her." ”

"And then? Not to mention how big the college town is, but what if you find her? It's gone, do you understand?" I became a little emotional, "Brother, be sober, stop punishing yourself for other people's mistakes! You're only three years older than me, and 27 years old is a man's career upswing, don't sink any further, OK?!" This time, I called him "brother", and I almost forgot how long ago I had last called him that.

Cheng Yu still looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, he looked at the wine glass shaking in his hand blankly, "I don't know what to say when I found her, but I'm just unwilling, maybe it's just a trace of obsession...... Cheng Ting, don't you know that I have been losing sleep almost every night in the past few months, and I will never forget the scenes when we got along, do you know what it was like? Maybe we didn't make it clear before, but now that she has gone to Guangzhou, as long as I can find her, then we will have the opportunity to meet alone, even if the final result is the same, at least it can make me open this knot. ”

"Love can make a mature adult get carried away and lose his mind and even lose his basic intelligence. Slowly I began to understand this sentence, I had seen it in Wang Hao a long time ago, and this actually included myself...... Therefore, I didn't persuade Cheng Yu anymore.

Cheng Yu touched the cup with me, squeezed out a smile and said, "Don't talk about me, let's talk about you, I heard my mother say that you already have your own company, and you're doing very well, right?"

I smiled bitterly, "There's nothing to say, so be it." "I lit two cigarettes at once, took out one of them and handed it to Cheng Yu, the smoke made my eyes squint, "In that high-end office building, there is a group of people who seem to be glamorous and have high-end titles, but they are actually bitter, and that group of people is called: entrepreneurs." I slowly exhaled the cigarette, "This,That's probably my current state of life,I used to think that as long as I started a business, I could become free,At least no one will point fingers at my head anymore,Every day I listen to the instructions of those people in the management to do what I don't like and have to do,But later I found out that it's actually the same,It's just that the identity has changed in the past,Now it's me who 'point's at myself,Live a repetitive life of two points and one line.。 ”

"Let's encourage each other!"

Late at night, Cheng Yu and I drank four bottles of red wine, emotionally vented, but physically not so comfortable, we lined up to go to the bathroom at night to vomit, and every convulsion in the stomach was the release of our negative energy.

Love is a cup of wine, and anyone who drinks it has to get drunk.

......

This morning, I was so sleepy, so I slept until half past nine, and although it was the weekend, I still had to go to Dark Fragrance, and the week was full, and although it was very fulfilling, it was also very tiring, because the only private space I had was a few hours after work in the evening.

When I was washing in the bathroom in the past, I passed by the room where Yang Fan lived before, I gently pushed open the door and found that Cheng Yu slept like a dead pig, snoring like thunder, but on the contrary, I was relieved. I went downstairs and packed two servings of rice rolls, one to take to the company to eat, and one to leave for Cheng Yu.

On my way to Dark Xiang, Lan Yu had already called me twice, but because I was on the subway, the signal was too poor, so I didn't hear what she said specifically, I only knew that it was something more urgent. When I got to the office of the dark incense company, she immediately called me into her office and locked the door, and from the expression on her face, I realized the seriousness of the matter.
