Pick up the phone from the pillow, and the caller ID is three words:

"Han Chengfeng?"

Ye Ling was not surprised, he could guess that Han Chengfeng had already learned about his resignation from his boss, and this call should also be for this matter.

With his fingers sliding to the screen, Ye Ling slowly put the mobile phone earpiece to his ear.

"Xiao Ye, I heard from your boss that you resigned. Didn't you go out and play for a few days and make your heart drift, did you? You're making a bit of a joke, I'm going to help you talk to your boss and tell him you're joking. Don't be idle, hurry up and come to the company, I will also help you hit the card, and you will not be considered late. ”

As soon as the phone was connected, Han Chengfeng's chattering voice came from the earpiece.

"I'm not kidding you. Ye Ling suppressed his voice.

"No, why did you resign?" asked Han Chengfeng puzzled.

Ye Ling was silent.

Han Chengfeng knows his family affairs well, and it may not be realistic to use the excuse of deceiving the boss to deceive Han Chengfeng, and he has not thought of other excuses for the time being.

"Is it because of your sister?" asked Han Chengfeng.

Ye Ling was still silent.

Han Chengfeng thought for a while and said, "I remember that your sister is only in her third year of high school this year, how could she suddenly be admitted to Zhonghai's university?"

It seemed that he felt that Ye Ling had something unspeakable, and after Han Chengfeng adjusted his attitude, he asked in a serious tone, "Can you tell me why you resigned?" I want to hear the truth. ”

"I can't tell you the reason..."Ye Ling said in a low voice.

"Why?" Han Chengfeng was puzzled.

Ye Ling buried his head and did not speak.

It's better that he doesn't want to tell Han Chengfeng, but he feels that he may not believe Han Chengfeng when he says it, and he doesn't know the rules that bind spirit disciples, maybe there are rules that can't reveal the identity of spirit disciples to ordinary people?

Ye Ling didn't want to cause trouble, so he didn't explain to Han Chengfeng.

Ye Ling didn't want to say it, so Han Chengfeng didn't ask again.

He digressed the subject: "I guess you should have your reason... Let's get together with a few of our colleagues, and no one knows if we will have the opportunity to meet again in the future. ”

"Hmm..."

Ye Ling responded simply, he didn't want to talk much because he was in an irritable mood.

"Okay, see you at seven o'clock tonight, the old place. ”

Han Chengfeng seemed to sense that Ye Ling was in a bad mood, so he didn't say anything more and hung up the phone directly.

Ye Ling put the phone on the table and lay on the bed tossing and turning.

So many things happened as soon as he returned home, no matter how many blows Ye Ling had suffered, no matter how tenacious his heart was, he would never be able to withstand such a big pressure.

The first is to be involved in the A-class criminal, then to Lin Zhishen's death, and finally to resign and say goodbye to his colleagues who have been with him for more than a year, and his ten-year friends who have intersected with him in every way...

This series of events messed up his thoughts.

From morning to afternoon, he never left the door, let alone a drop of oil and water.

Ye Cheng also asked him to eat, but he pretended to be asleep and fooled him.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was evening.

Ye Ling looked at the dim sky outside the window through the curtain with low shading, and then picked up his mobile phone and looked at the time:

“18:42…”

In July, the days in the south are long and the nights are short, and even at 7 p.m., the sky does not completely darken here.

"Gotta go..."

Ye Ling took out a set of black casual clothes from the closet, and then went to the bathroom to take a shower.

After taking a bath, Ye Ling took care of his appearance casually, took his wallet and was about to go out, when he passed by the living room, Ye Cheng, who was cooking dinner in the kitchen, saw that he finally got up, and hurriedly greeted:

"The dish is almost ready, you sit there and wait for a few minutes, and the meal will start soon." ”

"You haven't eaten in a day, so you eat more or less. ”

Ye Ling replied to Ye Cheng with a polite and slightly stiff smile, and said: "The boss invited guests to dinner tonight, which can be regarded as a long business trip for us." ”

After that, he hurried out the door.

After going out, Ye Ling slowly hurried towards the street.

It is about 0.5 kilometers from here to the main street, although it is not far, but Ye Ling does not want to take this road, so he pays attention to whether there are taxis among the vehicles coming and going on the road.

Luckily, within 100 meters of his house, he waited for a passing taxi.

"Master, go to the Hunan Restaurant. ”

After getting on the bus, Ye Ling reported the address.

Hunan Cuisine Restaurant is a large restaurant, most of the dishes are Hunan provincial taste, the taste is spicy and numb, the most important thing is that the taste is good, and the price is also close to the people.

Ye Ling and his colleagues like spicy food, so this restaurant is a frequent place for them.

The taxi will take less than 10 minutes to reach your destination.

After paying the fare, Ye Ling got out of the car and walked into the hotel.

Although it is a restaurant with the taste of Hunan Province, the business in the southeast is unexpectedly hot, and there are countless people who come here to eat every day, and most of them are locals of the southeast province.

This hotel is quasi-two-star, the decoration and other decorations are very good, especially the flower pots placed in the corridor, these are live flowers, the hotel waiter will water every day, people who pass through the corridor can smell a non-pungent fragrance.

Ye Ling called Han Chengfeng to ask for the private room number, and after hanging up the phone, he walked towards the second floor.

Private room 808.

This is a soundproofed, private room.

As soon as Ye Ling entered the door, the colleagues who were sitting and waiting for the food to be served hurriedly got up and rushed in like a swarm.

"Team Leader Ye, I heard that your sister was admitted to Zhonghai's university?" Tang Qingya was the first to speak, and the leader of this female colleague was naturally the first to ask.

Ye Ling was stunned at first, and then remembered that this was an excuse he had made up at the boss's place.

He hurriedly replied, "yes, yes. ”

"Alas, Team Leader Ye, you are also working very hard, and you even quit your job in order to take care of your sister. The female colleague named Dong Li was quite sympathetic.

"Hey..."Ye Ling scratched the back of his head with some embarrassment.

"Team Leader Ye, you are so good to your sister, the relationship between the two of you must be very good, right?" Qin Yun also stepped forward to join in the fun.

Ye Ling's smile suddenly froze.

However, in order to fool around, he quickly regained his smile: "Yes." ”

That's what he said, but that's not what he thought in his heart: 'She never wants to see me...'

After answering a few gossip questions from a female colleague, the topic of several people gradually finished chatting and they sat back in their seats.

Han Chengfeng, who was originally very gossipy, did not participate, he kept staring at Ye Ling, sitting next to him and drinking stuffy wine, seemingly depressed.

At the dinner table, several people were still gossiping.

The waiter suddenly entered the private room with the dishes, and several people stopped gossiping and picked up the dishes and chopsticks to eat.

The serving speed of the Hunan restaurant is very fast, as the first dish is served, the next few dishes will also be served in a short time, not even ten minutes.

From the beginning of the meal to the end of the meal, several female colleagues were gossiping about Ye Ling, and they all expressed their reluctance to let Ye Ling leave, but Tang Qingya, who loves to talk about cool things, still said cool things as always, she said that after Ye Ling left, their wages would shrink, and I am afraid it will be difficult to travel in the future.

Ye Ling was silent, he had considered all these things, but it was not his will to resign, and he had no way to do it.

Everyone was talking, but Han Chengfeng, who always chattered on weekdays, was drinking and didn't say a word from beginning to end.

When the meal was almost finished, Han Chengfeng suddenly called Ye Ling away.

There is a large hall in the Hunan Restaurant, which is a place for guests to rest after eating, but there are few people sitting here, as for the reason... Probably because the location is not good......

in the hall.

Han Chengfeng's face was flushed from drinking, and he sat on the sofa closest to the air conditioner.

Ye Ling knew that Han Chengfeng had something to ask him, so he sat opposite Han Chengfeng without saying a word.

The atmosphere was silent for a long time, Han Chengfeng suddenly raised his head, and said in a vague tone: "Xiao Ye, I have also been with you for ten years, and I know your little secrets, of course, you still know a little more about my little secrets." ”

"I know you're not a reckless person, and you're definitely ready to resign this time. ”

Han Chengfeng approached Ye Ling, stared at Ye Ling with slightly godless eyes, and continued: "Brother, no matter what you want to do, brother, I will support you. However, I have to tell you that you are not allowed to do illegal things, otherwise don't blame me for not recognizing you as a brother. ”

Ye Ling didn't drink much, so his mind was still very clear.

Han Chengfeng is his best friend for ten years, and it is impossible to say that there is no emotion.

Now that he is about to leave the South China Sea, Han Chengfeng can still tell him out of kindness, how can his heart not be warm?
