Wang Jie was in a hurry to answer the phone, and probably didn't hear what Xiao Ye said clearly. When Xiao Ye walked to the door, she answered the phone: "Hey, what's wrong?" ”

The door clicked and closed again, and Zhang Hao's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone: "Ancestor, you finally answered the phone, I didn't answer so many calls to you in the afternoon, and I didn't answer when I borrowed someone else's mobile phone to call you, I thought you were kidnapped by someone." ”

Wang Jie took the mobile phone off his ear and put it in front of him, the screen was full of missed calls, the first line was Zhang Hao's, he called once at 9:02, and there were a few numbers he didn't know, and the last line was called by his mother, and the time was 3:45 in the afternoon.

During this period of time when Wang Jie was in a daze, Zhang Hao was still thinking about it, and when she came back to her senses, Zhang Hao had already said: "That person said that he was your boyfriend, did he have such a boyfriend?" Why did he go early when you were sick, and he didn't help answer the phone in the afternoon, and he died in a hurry. Brother Jie, are you really okay? ”

Wang Jie scratched the back of his head: "It's okay, I just had a cold a few days ago, I didn't take care of it, and it dragged on seriously." It's much better now, my nose is no longer stuffed, my head doesn't hurt anymore, I just don't have much strength. ”

Zhang Hao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, that's good." Where are you now? What about hospitals? I'm going to see you? ”

"You'd better not come." Wang Jie looked at the door of Xiao Ye's bedroom, "I'm at his house." ”

Zhang Hao continued to be relieved, "That's good, that's good", and suddenly burst out on the phone: "What? His home! ”

The next morning, Wang Jie was finally able to get out of bed and walk, his feet on the floor fluttering, like a dream. She stood on the ground for a while, remembered, and called her mother back, only to know that her mother was going on a business trip again.

Wang Jie walked outside with light steps, and as soon as he walked to the door of the bedroom, he saw Xiao Ye, Xiao Han and Ye Quan all gathered in the living room with their backs to her. She walked downstairs step by step with the handrail of the stairs, and heard Ye Quan say from a distance: "I want to go to Thailand." I don't know if Xiao Han asked him something, but I heard him say, "Aren't there elephants when you go to Thailand?" ”

Wang Jie had already walked not far from them, and heard Xiao Ye say, "Dad, there are elephants in Xishuangbanna. Then, Xiao said in a cold voice, "I don't think you want to see elephants, you want to see these." ”

Ye Quan explained: "This ...... It's not that I haven't seen it before, I just want to see it, and I don't want to do anything else. ”

Wang Jie got a little closer, and saw that Xiao Han's finger was on a certain photo in a magazine, on which were several "women" dressed in bewitching clothes, and that magazine was the Thailand travel guide she had read for an afternoon at Xiao Ye's house that day.

Xiao Han's voice became even colder: "What else do you want to do?" ”

Ye Quan scratched his nose: "That's it...... It is...... Curious...... Oops in a word, go, go? ”

Xiao Han looked at him with a helpless face, and finally nodded and said, "Go." ”

At this time, Ye Quan also saw Wang Jie, and said to her with a smile: "Xiaojie, how is it, do you feel better?" ”

Wang Jie saw Xiao Han frowning and sitting beside him, constantly casting a knife-like glance at the magazine on the coffee table, and was stunned for a moment, before pulling the corners of his mouth and saying with a smile: "Much better, much better." ”

In the past few days of the holiday, Wang Jie and Xiao Ye have been together, either temporarily handling affairs in the company, or at home, but most of the time they are at home.

After staying with Xiao Ye for a long time, Wang Jie realized that although Xiao Ye had so many cooks and people who did other things in his family, Xiao Ye could cook, and he would do many things, including things she wouldn't do.

When Xiao Ye was cooking, Wang Jie would help him on the side, although most of the time she made a mess of the spices, Xiao Ye was still able to cope with the dishes to be eaten.

Sometimes, Xiao Ye would teach her how to prune those white roses and insert them in vases. Maybe this is relatively simple, Wang Jie was only pricked a few times by the thorns on the flower branches, and then he learned it.

Wang Jie took Xiao Ye out to race a motorcycle with Zhang Hao and a few friends, feeling that Xiao Ye's learning ability was too strong, and after a few back and forth, Xiao Ye changed from the back seat of her car to the front of her, and the motorcycle also drove smoothly, but it was much more stable than her.

I don't know if it's because Xiao Ye doesn't like to talk, Wang Jie's friends all stay away from him, only Zhang Hao often goes up to talk to him, and he always eats closed-door soup.

On the day Xiao Han and Ye Quan came back from their trip, Wang Jie had already gone home. Maybe Xiao Han and Ye Quan's travel was not going well, and the two of them had gloomy faces as soon as they entered the door, especially Ye Quan, who walked upstairs without saying a word with a black face.

Xiao Ye put away his luggage, ran into him at the staircase when he went downstairs, and asked, "Dad, what's wrong?" ”

Ye Quan just walked upstairs and said, "You go and ask him." ”

Xiao Ye walked to the living room with a puzzled face and asked Xiao Han, "Dad, what's wrong with you, Dad is so angry?" I asked, and Dad asked me to ask you. ”

Xiao Han looked up at him, then lowered his head to look at the coffee table: "It's nothing." He wanted to take a picture, but I didn't let him. ”

Xiao Ye seemed to think of the content of the photo that Xiao Han didn't let Ye Quan take back, and rubbed the tip of his nose and said, "That's still, it's better not to take it." ”

One day in late autumn, Xiao Ye came to Wang Jie's house very early to pick up Wang Jie, saying that he would take her to a place. It happened to be Saturday, Wang Jie thought that Xiao Ye was going to take her to a scenic spot or something, so he picked out a random dress and yawned into Xiao Ye's car.

The shadow of the city decreased little by little, and the car was about to drive to the suburbs, Xiao Yecai said: "Today is my father's birthday, I want to take you to celebrate." ”

Wang Jie dozed all the way and immediately woke up, hurriedly threw himself into the driver's seat, and said anxiously behind Xiao Ye: "Why didn't you say it earlier?" I don't have anything ready now, I don't have any gifts...... Parking, Xiao Ye, parking, gift shop outside. ”

Because it is close to the suburbs, the specifications of this gift shop are not very high, and there are some ordinary small pendants and trinkets inside. Wang Jie was walking around the store, Xiao Ye accompanied her to choose things, and said next to her: "It doesn't matter if you have a gift or not, as long as you go." ”

Wang Jie's eyes picked up on the gift shelf in rows, and said: "That's not good, usually this kind of politeness can be less, birthday is such a big thing, I can't go to the ...... with two empty paws on both shoulders"

She sees a SpongeBob SquarePants crystal ball on the gift shelf, which contains coral and aquatic plants, and SpongeBob SquarePants floats silently in the crystal ball. She took the crystal ball off the gift shelf: "That's it." ”

Xiao Ye asked her in surprise, "How do you know that my dad likes this?" ”

Wang Jie handed the crystal ball to the clerk to wrap it, and raised his eyebrows and said, "Last time I went to your house for dinner with you, didn't Uncle Ye wear a SpongeBob SquarePants pajamas?" I guess he might like this. ”

Ye Quan's birthday is held in this seaside villa every year, when Wang Jie and Xiao Ye arrived, the sun had risen for a long time, and the birthday party had not yet started, and there were already many people in the living room on the first floor, including Wang Jie who knew but was not familiar with it, such as Ye Ming, and Wang Jie who did not know him but was introduced by Xiao Ye, such as Ah Xin and Mr. Wen, as well as Ah Xin's new wife Cheng Jia.

Wang Jie is very good at talking, but he has a very good appetite for Mr. Wen, the two chatted for a long time, Mr. Wen told Wang Jie a lot of things about Xiao Ye, which were all inconsequential things, and he said that Xiao Ye would not care much.

When it was almost nine o'clock, Xiao Ye went upstairs to call Xiao Han and Ye Quan, and he didn't know that it didn't take long for Wang Jie to follow him upstairs. The two of them walked to the largest balcony on the second floor and the seaside one after another, the door was open, Xiao Han and Ye Quan sat together facing the sea, Ye Quan leaned on Xiao Han, and Xiao Han held his shoulder.

Xiao Han asked Ye Quan: "Do you remember that there used to be a drainage pipe here, which was very big?" ”

Ye Quan leaned on his back and thought about it, and said with some regret: "I don't remember, there are too many changes here." Then he suddenly said happily, "I remember walking through that drain pipe, and you can go all the way to our house, which is very close." ”

Xiao Han seemed to laugh very softly, resting his chin on Ye Quan's hair, and let out a deep "um" in his voice.

After a while, Ye Quan sat up, separated from Xiao Han for a while, and said with a smile: "I still remember that Mr. Xiao had a lot of people chasing him back then, so why don't you pick one of them, maybe we ...... it."

Xiao Han hugged him and said bitterly: "But they are not you, even if they can barely live together, it doesn't make any sense." ”

Ye Quan stretched out his hand to push him: "Okay, okay, I'll just make a joke, don't be so serious...... Eh, Xiaoye, Xiaojie, why are you here? ”

Xiao Ye seemed to realize Wang Jie behind him, glanced back at her, then turned his head to Xiao Han and Ye Quan and said, "Dad, the banquet will start soon, and the people downstairs are here, waiting for you and Dad." ”

Xiao Han and Ye Quan went downstairs, and those birthday gifts for Ye Quan were all opened and placed on a long table like exhibits, and Wang Jie's SpongeBob SquarePants crystal ball was placed in the middle, which looked more ordinary compared to other birthday gifts.

Ye Quan walked past the gifts, his fingers finally stopped on the crystal ball, and a smile curved into the corner of his mouth. He picked it up and pressed the button at the bottom of the crystal ball, and SpongeBob SquarePants inside began to swim between the coral and the aquatic plants, chasing a small electronic jellyfish, and laughing all the time.

With SpongeBob's laughter, the smile on the corner of Ye Quan's mouth became more obvious, and Xiao Han, who was beside him, finally bent the corner of his mouth and showed a smile.
