Lin Yanhuan parked his car in the shadow of a tree on the side of the road, where the light of the street lamp could not spread, and it was pitch black. He leaned on the back of the saddle and looked ahead for a moment before slowly pulling his phone out of his pocket. Two minutes ago, Lin Yansheng made a phone call, and he replied first, comforting her and saying that he would be back in a while. Lin Yansheng's voice sounded nervous, and she felt very scared in the house where she was alone. Lin Yanhuan knew her feelings, soothed her with kind words, and showed great patience. After hanging up the phone, he was silent for a few seconds before dialing Mu Yi's phone, which rang for a long time before the other side picked it up. Mu Yi's drunken voice came, and he asked indistinctly, "Who?"

Lin Yanhuan took a deep breath and asked, "Where are you?"

"Who are you?"

"Lin Yanhuan. ”

"Oh-Yan Huan-" Mu Yi stretched out the end and said with a smile, "Is there anything wrong with me?"

"Where are you?" Lin Yanhuan's brows gradually furrowed.

"What, you want to come and drink too?" Mu Yi smiled, "Okay, okay, you can come." He gave an address, and then there was a shouting from the side, and the environment suddenly became noisy. Lin Yanhuan wrote down the address, quickly hung up the phone, started the engine and turned the direction of the car, heading towards where Mu Yi was.

Along the way, he didn't have any expression on his face, and it seemed that he didn't care about Mu Yi's changes, and he didn't mind at all. Lin Yanhuan seems to have always been like this, all accidents in the outside world are normal for him, he is willing to accept it, and he can accept it quickly, at least that's what he shows. As for what he was thinking in his heart, others couldn't see it clearly. When he is at home, his parents will ask for his opinion before making any major decisions, and sometimes even listen to him directly, because Lin Yanhuan's decisions must be very rational and objective. He never shows too much personal emotion, nor does he allow more personal emotions to affect his judgment and decision. Such a character may have its own advantages, but there is also a very obvious disadvantage, that is, he keeps all his thoughts in his heart, never tells others, and will not find any way to release it. Over time, the mountain that gradually accumulates will always crush him, crushing him, a man made of living flesh and blood rather than a machine.

Soon at the door of the hotel, he found a place to stop the car, frowning at the neon sign that shimmered with colorful brilliance. After being stunned for a while, he pushed the car door and got out of the car, suddenly feeling a little nervous, and he didn't know why he was nervous. When he entered the door of the hotel, the waiter asked him how many people he had, and he said that he was here to find someone, looking for Mu Yi. The waiter seemed to know Mu Yi, and as soon as he heard the name, he hurriedly smiled and said, "Oh, Mr. Mu, he's in the box upstairs, I'll take you in." After speaking, he made a gesture to let Lin Yanhuan in, and he walked one step away from Lin Yanhuan with small steps. Lin Yanhuan followed the waiter upstairs with an expressionless face, and the moment he pushed open the door of the box, he thought that he had returned to the primitive world, and a group of apes seemed to appear in front of him, rolling up their sleeves and grabbing the fruit in each other's hands with a hideous face.

He closed his eyes, shook his head, shook off the image of the ape in front of him, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw a group of drunk, ruddy-faced middle-aged people standing around the table and urging others to drink. He looked around in the pile of people standing, but didn't see Mu Yi, and when he turned his perspective, he saw Mu Yi sitting on the sofa in the corner, looking at the group of people, with a cold smile. Mu Yi's eyes were empty, and even his smile was empty, without any specific emotions. Next to him, in the other corner of the sofa sat a girl, with a bitter face, sullenly buttoning the tassels on the sofa cushions.

The smell of wine in the box made Lin Yanhuan feel very disgusted, he walked in quickly, stood still in front of Mu Yi, and looked at the latter condescendingly. Mu Yi's sight of watching the show was blocked by him, and he raised his head blankly, and when he saw that it was Lin Yanhuan, his face showed a look of imminent relief, and he hurriedly stood up and said, "Are you coming? Let's go out." He took Lin Yanhuan's arm and walked outside, his steps a little vague and unsteady. The girl sitting on the other side of the sofa hurriedly stood up and walked out with them.

"Hey, little Mr. Mu, where are you going? You haven't finished drinking this bottle of wine, you can't go!" An ape at the table hurriedly shouted when he saw that Mu Yi was about to escape. Mu Yi turned his head and gave him a reluctant smile, and quickly closed the box door in front of him, locking the ape in the primordial world. Mu Yi sighed, held on to the wall, and said, "I'll go and open another box." ”

"Forget it. Lin Yanhuan stopped him and said lightly, "I don't eat." ”

"It's not for you to eat. Mu Yi glanced at him, "I'm drunk, I can't stand steadily, I have to sit." ”

"That-Mr. Mu-I'll go back first-" Wu Xingqi, who was standing on the side, said weakly.

"No, I can't. Mu Yi refused without thinking about it, "This dinner is not over yet, you still have to keep it for me to relieve the siege." ”

Lin Yanhuan glanced at the girl coldly, and Wu Xingqi's heart was empty. He asked, "Can you still speak soberly?"

"Yes. Mu Yi said, beckoned the waiter and asked him to reopen a private room, while he took Lin Yanhuan's arm and staggered and followed the waiter forward, "I'm not drunk enough to be unconscious." ”

"You didn't drink alcohol before. After enduring it for a long time, Lin Yanhuan still said this.

Mu Yi smiled, his expression looked a little bleak, "How can you talk about business now without drinking?

Lin Yanhuan looked at him and said, "I don't think so. ”

"You're in management, and you're not in charge of talking to people. Mu Yi glanced at him, sat down on the chair, reached out and poured a cup of tea, raised his head and drank it all, muttering, "I didn't vomit to death but they died of noise." ”

"Tell the truth. Lin Yanhuan sat down on the chair next to him, "Is it because of my sister's affair that you are like this?" ”

Mu Yi was stunned, holding the teacup in the air, sadness flashed in his eyes, but quickly disappeared. He smiled and poured himself another cup of tea, and said, "No, no, a manly man, where would he give up on himself because he broke up in love." ”

Lin Yanhuan turned his head to look at Wu Xingqi, who was sitting far away at the dinner table, and turned his head again. He was silent for a long time before asking, "Why did you break up?"

The smile on Mu Yi's face disappeared, he looked at the teacup in his hand in a daze, and muttered, "I don't know." ”

"Is it your reason or my sister's reason?" Lin Yanhuan asked, after coming back for so long, it was the first time he asked about Mu Yi and Lin Yansheng, before that, he only knew that they had broken up.

Mu Yi sighed and said with a wry smile: "It's my reason." I didn't protect her, and I didn't give her the security she wanted after it happened. ”

"To be honest, I think my sister's mental state is a little wrong right now. Lin Yanhuan said, he looked at Mu Yi, and his eyes softened.

Mu Yi glanced at Lin Yanhuan, and stopped talking for a long time before he said, "I know." After these two things, she was hit hard. He turned the teacup in his hand, and seemed a little irritable, "But I don't know what to do." When you didn't come back, Uncle Lin and Aunt Shen weren't-" Speaking of this, he paused, glanced at Lin Yanhuan, and saw that Lin Yanhuan didn't react, before continuing, "I tried my best to comfort her, but--her reaction always made me feel that everything I did was useless, and what I gave her was something she didn't want at all." ”

"Maybe you can give her a little more time and wait for her to come to her senses. Lin Yanhuan said, his mood was somehow a little low.

Mu Yi put down the teacup, stood up, and walked back and forth irritably, "Give her a little more time? Lin Yanhuan, am I not human? Won't I be uncomfortable? I am not a god, it is impossible to see through her heart, and then tolerate her infinitely." I'm going to break down, I'm going to be in pain, I'm going to smile when I can't feel bad, and I'm not going to accept my face with a smile - I'm different from you, Lin Yanhuan, you look like you don't care, you don't care about anything. Even after this happens, you can still hold your emotions and deal with everything. This is your merit, you can do it, but I can't do it, I'm too much-" He stood still, turned his head to look at Lin Yanhuan, and was suddenly stunned. Lin Yanhuan's always upright back bent down, buried his face in the palms of his two hands, and his body trembled slightly, as if he was desperately enduring something.

"Yan Huan. Mu Yi called cautiously, looking at him worriedly. Lin Yanhuan didn't say anything, he was breathing rapidly, looking very uncomfortable. Mu Yi walked up to him, bent down, put a palm on his shoulder, and shouted again, "Yan Huan, are you okay?"

"What's wrong with him?" Wu Xingqi's voice suddenly came from behind him. Mu Yi turned his head to look at her, but didn't answer. Wu Xingqi took out his mobile phone from his pocket and asked, "Do you want to call an ambulance?"

"No, it's okay, you can go back first. Mu Yi said. Wu Xingqi glanced at them twice, pursed his lips, and said, "Okay, then I'll go back first." With that, she turned and walked towards the door, turning back as she went, with a worried look on her face.

"Yan Huan. Mu Yi squatted down next to Lin Yanhuan, wanting to break his hand to see what was wrong with him, "Where are you uncomfortable? Do you want to go to the hospital?" Mu Yi couldn't help but be a little panicked when he saw Lin Yanhuan like this for the first time, after all, in his impression, Lin Yanhuan has always been calm and comfortable, and he has never lost control of his emotions. He overestimated him too much, overestimated Lin Yanhuan's ability to bear it.

"Mu Yi. Lin Yanhuan shouted in pain, grabbing his wrist with his backhand, "You said I don't care about anything, do I really care about anything?"

Mu Yi looked at him at a loss, not knowing what to say.

Lin Yanhuan closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, let go of his hand, and straightened up. Mu Yi saw that his eyelashes were wet and there were tears hanging on them.

"You-" Mu Yi stood up, looking at him in surprise and helplessness, stunned.

"I can't hold it anymore. Lin Yanhuan let out a breath and barely calmed himself down, "Mu Yi." He shouted his name, as if it were the only hope in his heart that would save him.

Mu Yi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and he said a few words before asking, "What can't hold on?"

Lin Yanhuan suddenly felt a little ridiculous, he showed his fragile side in front of Mu Yi, in order to find a support point. But now it seems that Mu Yi didn't understand what he was saying, maybe in Mu Yi's eyes, this side he showed was just a funny drama scene. He felt a little desolate and a little annoyed, quickly put back the fragile look on his face, stood up, and said coldly: "Forget it, it's nothing. ”

Lin Yanhuan's rapid transformation made Mu Yi even more confused. The two sisters and brothers are the same, and they both make him feel a pain in the brain. Seeing Lin Yanhuan change back to his previous appearance, he touched the back of his head and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"

"I said nothing. Lin Yanhuan was a little angry, he glared at Mu Yi, and reprimanded sternly, "Look at what you have become now? Do you still look like a man? If you lose love, you will die or live, you get drunk every day, and you will bring other little girls with you." Don't you know how worried Uncle Mu and Aunt Yu are about you every day? Uncle Mu is not in good health, and he has to drive to pick you up after you get drunk, aren't you afraid that he will be with my father one day-" He paused, and then said, "I advise you to be sober, to spend time with your parents while they are alive, to put those negative emotions aside, and not to let yourself become more and more decadent." If you are really strong, you should understand that no matter what happens in life, it is possible, whether it is good or bad. There are so many people in the world who are worse than you, are they all drunk and looking for life one by one? If you really think you are a manly man, cheer yourself up and do what a man should do, and don't let that old couple of parents worry about you as a young man at home!"

Mu Yi looked at him stunned, drenched by his sudden criticism and reprimand, and didn't know what to say. After Lin Yanhuan said this, he let out a long breath, glanced at Mu Yi again with hatred, and walked towards the door with his feet raised.

When Lin Yanhuan walked out of the door, Mu Yi hadn't reacted. He touched the back of his head, and said to himself for some reason: "What's the matter? Why did you scold me?" He looked around blankly, hurriedly turned around and walked outside, shouting as he walked, "Lin Yanhuan! You tell me clearly! Why are you scolding me?" He ran out of the door, but Lin Yanhuan had already gotten into the car, turned around, and disappeared into the distance.

After staying away from Mu Yi, Lin Yanhuan's nerves relaxed. He leaned limply back in his chair, feeling exhausted and weak. Didn't he say that to himself, and the purpose was to wake himself up. But the effect only lasted for a short time before it wore off, and his heart became suffocated and dark again. His sister was still waiting for him to come home, and he couldn't let go, regain his spirits, and return home. He saw that the lights in each room were brightly on, and knew that Lin Yansheng was afraid, so he turned on all the lights, even the lights on the balcony.

Hearing the sound of him entering the door, Lin Yansheng hurriedly ran out of the house. She was still holding the two thermos cups in her arms, looked at him anxiously, and complained, "Why did you come back at this time?"

"Something. Lin Yanhuan changed his shoes and closed the door.

"Where's Mom and Dad?" As usual, Lin Yansheng glanced behind him a few times and asked.

Lin Yanhuan was accustomed to this kind of conversation, and said lightly: "I'll be back in a few days." ”

"How many days?"

"Ten days and half a month. ”

Lin Yansheng lowered his head and calculated, and said dissatisfiedly: "It's going to be so long, and my mother still can't listen to her concert?"

"They're having fun outside, listen to it yourself. Lin Yanhuan was a little impatient today, he glanced at the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and saw that Lin Yansheng had only eaten half a bowl of rice and didn't move a few bites of food, so he couldn't help frowning and asked, "Didn't you eat well?"

"My parents didn't come back, and I couldn't eat. ”

Lin Yanhuan glanced at her, and stopped talking. He sighed, walked to the table and cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and said, "It's not early, you go take a shower and go to bed early." ”

"If my parents don't come back, I can't sleep. Lin Yansheng is like a child, and he is unrelenting.

"Then you can just stand there. Lin Yanhuan walked into the kitchen with dishes and plates, lowered his head and cleaned up the kitchen. He didn't know how long this situation would last, and when Lin Yansheng would be able to return to reality and accept reality. Although he was mentally prepared to fight a protracted battle, he still felt very tired. How he wanted her to bear all this with him, and it was too much of a challenge for him to be alone. He had gone through these months, thinking that the tempering would make him stronger, but now it seemed that his tense nerves were like a thin string, ready to break at any time. At the moment when it was broken, he didn't know if he could still maintain his usual rationality and calmness, and if he could help Lin Yansheng construct her illusion. Lin Yanhuan dropped the dishes, propped his hands on the table, and sighed deeply, he couldn't hold it alone anymore, he knew in his heart that it was time for him to find someone to help him, this was something that had to be done.
