Chapter 9: The Rope That Never Unties

At the end of the business, a crisp wind chime sounded, Lin Xi sent away the last batch of customers in the store, and the little brothers in the store were hurriedly cleaning up and preparing to get off work.

Lin Xi got off work much earlier than usual, and when he returned to the store, he had a sunny smile on his face, and he never stopped, and even chatted with customers from one table to another table all night. Lin Xi's seemingly normal behavior is an abnormal manifestation in Jingya's eyes.

"Eh, are you alright?" Jingya suddenly came out of the front desk and grabbed Lin Xi.

"I'm fine, I'm ...... What should I do? Lin Xi's eyes widened, and he looked at Jingya with a puzzled expression.

"Are you really okay?"

"Yo-yo Mei's terrier has long been outdated, okay?" Lin Xi smiled, pretending to be heartless.

Should she be okay? What should she do?

"Did you watch the news today?" Jingya asked.

"Do I have time to watch the news? I don't have to work, do I? It's like I'm lazy, except for sitting down and recruiting someone, when do you see me idle? Lin Xi rolled his eyes.

"You haven't seen the news about Gayas yet?" Jing Ya stared at Lin Xi's eyes, not allowing her to lie anymore, not allowing her to dodge her eyes.

"I thought you were going to talk about Min Qian and Xiao Xiao," Lin Xi waved the rag in his hand nonchalantly to wipe the table, "His is not something I should worry about, what can I do?" ”

"If you really don't care, it's fine, anyway, I think you and Qin Mufeng are very good now, you can't always mess around and squander girls just because you're handsome."

"Hmm~" Lin Xi glared at Jing Ya resentfully.

Will she really be okay? In the past few years, in addition to her hairstyle has changed, she has also become more able to pretend, if she takes Yas's way, maybe she can take a little golden man home and pose.

Pretend to be something, pretend to be stupid, pretend not to care.

When she was a child, Jingya could casually read her mind. But people always grow, and she knows that as long as she doesn't focus her eyes on one point, her emotions will be buried. She knew that as long as she didn't let her mind stop at one thing, her mind wouldn't show up, so she needed to find something to do, and those were the things she had to do every day.

But no matter how she changes or pretends to be, someone will always be her Sherlock Holmes.

"Brother, have you explained it to Lin Xi?"

After three rounds of drinking, he was in a good mood, and he was about to fall asleep with a dizziness, and Min Qian's cold words woke Yas up again.

"Are you embarrassed by this question? How do I explain it, and why should I explain it to her? I'm not hers, who is going to explain this to her, and after a while, she scolds me for being insane. Yas's eyes were closed, and his tone was full of helplessness.

The dead child, if he knew it, he wouldn't have rushed all the way to come to him for a drink, and the more he drank, the worse he became.

"You can really do it, you are all relatives, you ...... if something like this happens" The so-called drunken spit out the truth, generally start to unload the burden and relax your vigilance when you are drunk. Before Min Qian finished speaking, he immediately realized something and shut up instantly.

"You ......" Yas's face changed color, and he stole a scrutinizing glance at Min Qian, because he had only told Min Qian that he had only seen Lin Xi alone.

"It's not so serious to see you kissing, is it?" Min Qian smiled awkwardly and slowly moved his body back. Yas got up and pressed Min Qian to the ground with one hand, not letting him move, and looked him in the eyes.

"I'm not afraid that you are too lonely to sleep alone, and you will drive back again, and then see you at the gate of the community." Min Qian sent out all his desire to survive, but Yas still pressed forward step by step, "Then look at me? I just wanted to make sure and followed up, and I saw it. ”

"Really? Didn't you come home in the morning? Yas's eyes were sharp.

"My mother won't let me go back, how dare I go back so quickly?" Min Qian's voice weakened.

"Aren't you at the door if you don't come back? It's all at the doorstep, and you still don't want to go back? Where to stay until morning? Yas's eyes were drunk and confused, but it didn't affect the deterrent effect in the slightest, "Say it quickly?" Where are you staying, why didn't you call me when I left? Why do you only come home in the morning? ”

“……” Min Qian was asked without answering, looking at the aggressive posture, he would definitely be debunked if he made up a lie and replied to so many questions at once, "Okay, I'll be honest, I slept at Lin Xi's house later."

“……”

It's cool, it's cool. One was stunned, and the other was so angry that he didn't dare to speak.

After Jingya and her little brothers left, the store returned to tranquility. The cold wind on the roof was whining, and the passion fruit on the roof was swaying. Lin Xi washed away his exhaustion and lay on the bed. The phone's browsing page displays the latest news from Yas. She pays attention to his dynamics every day, how could she not know what news he has come out?

"Scum, you scum." Lin Xi silently recited it N times in his heart, and he was distressed and couldn't speak.

She couldn't be okay, and more likely didn't care.

In the first year after he left, there was no news, and she was too embarrassed to enter their house again, and she did not dare to inquire about him again. The next year, Su Mei sent her a photo of Yas, saying that it was her model. In the third year, he began to appear on Instagram and Twitter in major fashion magazines, and in the fourth year, he amazed Asia, and she was only a small part of his tens of millions of followers. All the first-hand information she got about him came from Su Mei.

She eventually became an outsider in his life, he was in love, he was in love with many people.

Or maybe that's just what he needs.

Min Qian's words, Yas's face was as dark as on the eve of a thunderstorm. I don't really care that Min Qian said that he slept at Lin Xi's house. He didn't believe what Min Qian said at all. He just knew very well that Min Qian felt no less than he saw Lin Xi kissing with Min Qian.

In the past so many years, he has not forgotten the person, how can Min Qian forget it so easily. In the past, he could say that he was small and immature, and liking was simply liking and worshipping. But it turned out that his mind has always been very mature, and he likes her no less than he likes her, but later both of them became grasshoppers with the same disease.

"Lie to you, I drove to the neighborhood to watch the sun go out, anyway, it will be dawn after squinting for a while." Min Qian looked at Yas's face for a while, thinking that he was really angry, and hurriedly went to coax, but Yas just looked at him with a calm face and didn't speak.

"It's over kissing, cool, right?" Min Qian leaned in again, that innocent face is always the best tool to hide his heart.

"Cool? I make you cool, make you cool? Yas was laughed at angrily, and like when he was a child, he broke Min Qian's ass and smacked it.

This dead kid keeps his mind in his heart forever and pretends not to care.

So who isn't?

"Ah, what am I cool, it's not me, I haven't kissed!" Min Qian covered his ass and rolled on the ground, "Kiss it, kiss it, how old you are, you're still shy, and you beat me at every turn, I will definitely sue my uncle when I go back." ”

"Sue, you go to sue, sue, sue, if you don't sue, you will be the eighth king."

"Childish! Yes! Help me! ”

That night, Min Qian got rid of the people who followed his car and walked home from the back alley, he didn't know that there was still anyone guarding their door, so he drove the car into the community where Lin Xi lived.

He looked at the balcony of their house, and there was a light. How many times has it been pitch black when he looked up downstairs. He looked at the dark shadow on the balcony and thought of a lot, all of which were happy things, and the happier he was, the more sad he was in the end.

After a long time, he saw another dark figure walking from the greenway in front of him towards the building. How many more are there under that dark shadow?

It seems that the people at the door of the house have all left, otherwise how could the old brother come here?

He smiled, a cool breeze blowing through the edge of the window.

He watched his brother stand downstairs for a while, and the dark shadow upstairs left, appearing downstairs shortly after, and then taking his brother upstairs.

Have they reconciled?

They're reconciled.

Very good.

He leaned on the steering wheel, tilted his head to look at the glare street lamp downstairs, until the two figures cut off the light, one after the other, silently passed him fifty meters away. He looked at where they had disappeared and slowly closed his eyes.

"I miss you!" A sentence made him wake up from his dream, and he smiled: Now my brother is not ashamed to confess, and he is like a hooligan.

Later, I saw Lin Xi walking over, and the two of them pushed twice. Lin Xi said angrily and coquettishly, and after saying "neurotic", it was a long kiss.

The halo under the streetlamp was all pink bubbles, and he hid in a dark corner and peeked at two fiery hearts.

That kiss, he felt like they had kissed for a century.

He hid in his car and was forced to swallow the world's worst dog food. He remembered that when they were young, he and Ke Yang and Lin Xi were very good. Lin Xi's relationship with them is much closer than his brother's. It's normal to hook shoulders, put on your back, kick your ass or something, but she's always kept a safe distance from them, and even if she suddenly gets close to her, she'll push her away in disgust. On the contrary, Lin Xi always deliberately kept a fixed distance from her brother, if she was too far, she would get closer, and if she was too close, she would move away. But as long as her brother takes the initiative to approach her, no matter how close she is, she will only turn into a big red face.

In the end, he saw his brother being thrown downstairs, and then a handful of things floated down from the 26th floor, he was handsome, handsome, and suave old brother laughed like a fool the whole time after being hit on the head by something, picking up things like gold, and carrying them in his arms like a baby.

He watched his back fade away.

He started the car and quietly drove out of the neighborhood, parked on the side of the road in the riverside park.

Five years ago, the riverbank was replaced with new solar-powered street lights, which were cold but bright. The entire embankment is illuminated and can be seen as far as the eye can see.

He walked down to the broken stone bench.

The stray den on the beta side has been taken down by the Administrators, and thankfully, they have set up a rescue station next to the pet store in the trade.

No one will sit on a stone bench and wait for his master for a stray child.

He had been here many times in the past few years, and he regretted that if he hadn't been here that day, he could have hated her until his brother returned. Or Ke Yang, or his brother will introduce them to each other, so that he won't like her so much.
