Break-up

Chapter 56: I want Zhang Fa

    Lin Rui once thought about how he should behave this time. He admits that Shen Fan is behind him, and Tang Yi was only brought up by Shen Fan, so there is basically no suspense in planning a good position by himself. . Even before Tang Yi came over, he proudly said to his colleagues, "If I'm free in a while, I'll mention you as well."

     Colleagues saw that he was confident, so he poured tea and water several times at the front and back ends. Who knew that when he entered the office, he found out that it was not the case at all.

    He hit Lin Rui's Tianling cover, and the latter's face turned dark immediately.

    Tang Yi took a look at them with interest, and then withdrew his gaze, as if the two were just a pair of clowns singing together. Lin Rui finally couldn't hold his face, turned his head and said something rather unkind to his colleague, "You go out first! I have something to do with Mr. Tang."

    This colleague's position was not as high as his, although he was dissatisfied, but Tang Yi also made a clear statement before, frowned and left first. Lin Rui waited for the office door to be closed for a long time before standing up and walking straight to the opposite side of Tang Yi's desk with his trousers pockets.

    "Mr. Tang, in fact, I'm here mainly for work." Lin Rui lowered his head slightly and coughed lightly, "I know you may have misunderstood me, but I still hope to be able to I have a decent position in the company, of course I don't care if I have real power or not, my mother needs my care now, and I need to stay in T city."

    "Oh?" Tang Yi glanced at him and said calmly, "But there is no place for you here. Not to mention that there are so many companies in T City, why should you submit to me?"

    His expression was indifferent, Lin Rui glanced at him, but could not get any useful information, and could not even guess the intention of Tang Yi's words, he could only pause and continue to explain, "I am in the ER The salary is something that other small companies in T city can’t afford. I can’t get into a big company, not to mention that I have worked in ER for two years, and I really don’t want to go to another company to start from scratch.”

    "So what?"

    "So, Mr. Tang, you can give me a position at will. Anyway, the salary is also paid by the headquarters, so I don't choose."

    Tang Yi nodded and asked suddenly, "Is your mother healthy?"

    Lin Rui was stunned for a moment, and answered vaguely, "It's okay."

     A little bit of luck is gone." He squinted and said amusingly, "Lin Rui, do you really think your mother is everywhere in the world? You want to join the company, you want more money, and you don't want to go anywhere... "

    Tang Yi clicked, "Don't think about it, no one cares about your feelings."

    Lin Rui was stunned for a while, but it took a while to react. At that time, when Shen Fan called Tang Yi, he was on the side. Naturally, he heard Tang Yi's unwillingness and anger clearly, but there was no way. .

    He came back this time with a sense of superiority. Two years ago, he was parachuted into Tang Yi's department, and when he was kicked away by Zhou Hao, everyone knew that Tang Yi couldn't tolerate him. He had no face at that time, and he had been at the head office for a long time with his tail between his legs before slowly climbing up. This time, he came back with the support of Shen Fan, naturally with a sense of shame, how could he expect Tang Yi to change his face in just two days?

    Lin Rui opened his mouth, and it took a long time before he said, "This time I came back because of Mr. Shen's intention, and you agreed before..."

    "Yes," Tang Yi said with a blank face, "just to toss you."

      He wrapped his clothes, thinking of Lin Rui's anger when he left the company in the afternoon, and shook his head speechlessly.

    Two years ago, Tang Yi's words would not be so simple and rude. At that time, Lin Rui had conflicts with him, and there were frequent disagreements in his work. He always explained it clearly to people with reason and evidence, and even hesitated when Zhou Hao wanted to kick people away. If it was changed to before, the conversation today would probably be different. For example, Tang Yi would talk about his work performance, or he would say that the company was about to break away from the head office, so that he could do it for himself.

    But things are different now. Lin Rui should never have done it. After saying such things to Gu Yanting, he even treated Tang Yi as a fool, thinking he didn't know anything.

    Tang Yi arrived a little late at night, Gu Yanting had already prepared dinner and waited for him. Weiwei woke up once in the middle, and after staring at Gu Yanting for a long time, he only asked, "Where's Uncle Tang?" Gu Yanting learned to speak in a soft tone of a child for the first time in more than 20 years, and said with a choked voice, "Susu went to work to earn money, and will come back at night."

    Weiwei glared at each other for a while before he nodded solemnly.

    "And then what?" Tang Yi took a mouthful of food and couldn't help but ask in a low voice with a smile.

    "Then he went to urinate, and after urinating he went back to sleep. I just glanced, but I haven't woken up yet." Gu Yanting was a little excited, and said in a low voice, "Hey, I Why do you feel so close to this child?"

    Tang Yi was stunned for a moment, he didn't know if Gu Yanting had any eye relationship with the child, but the blood relationship was quite close. He was silent for a while, and the movement of eating stopped unconsciously. Almost everyone knows about Gu Yanting's biological parents now, but he himself is kept in the dark. Tang Yi wanted to talk to him, but he opened his mouth but didn't know how to start.

    Gu Yanting saw that his mood was not too high, he consciously stopped talking, and waited until he was about to fall asleep, then he couldn't help but stroke Tang Yi's eyebrows, and asked a little nervously, "You have something on your mind. ?"

    Tang Yi paused and nodded slowly.

    Who knew that Gu Yanting would be wrong, he retracted his hand and rubbed it a little nervously, then put it back and continued to press it. After doing this a few times, he said uncomfortably, "Actually, I actually read the email you mentioned."

    After he finished speaking, he glanced at Tang Yi carefully, but did not continue.

    Tang Yi looked up at him, and after a while he realized what he was saying, "Mail?"

    "Well," Gu Yanting touched his nose and hummed.

    Tang Yi looked at him for a while, then nodded. He knew that Gu Yanting's reaction was almost impossible to explain, and the meaning of the letter was probably similar to what he understood. It's just that after so many years, it doesn't really make sense to pursue it any further. The reason why he mentioned it was just to express the grievances in his heart and let Gu Yanting understand where his distrust came from.

    Gu Yanting frowned, looking worried.

    Tang Yi sighed, reached out and patted him without speaking, and then heard Gu Yanting whisper, "I didn't know what I was thinking at the time, so I just said that. But I don't really I like you. I am, that's what I said."

    "I know. Go to sleep."

    "No, hey, I don't know how to say it." Gu Yanting's voice was a little anxious, "Actually, I was very happy at the time, and that's not what I meant."

    Tang Yi nodded. Just as he was about to say I got it, he saw Gu Yanting turned over and took the phone from the side, and poked it twice anxiously.

    "Actually, there are still several letters behind me." He swallowed nervously, and pushed forward, "Or, you can read it all, and then beat me all the way out. OK?"

    "I won't hit you, it's all in the past." Tang Yi was a little helpless.

    So much?

    Five minutes later, Tang Yi read those emails with a self-abuse mentality, including those that he hadn't read later, and half an hour later, Gu Yanting finally failed to escape the fate of being beaten.

    The content of the first email is the one Tang Yi saw.

    Tang Yi glanced at it hastily, then scrolled down, and then saw Mail 2.

    Mail 2: I went shopping with him today, he has to buy me a down jacket, you know? A piece of more than 3,000 yuan will be brushed with a bang! What the hell! I don't know if the uncle doesn't like down jackets? ! so ugly.

    Mail 3: Hey, let me tell you, he quarreled with me today, just because I didn't go out with him to open a room. How pretentious you say, you have to open a room during the festival, and that’s all, you go to a five-star hotel, do you know how much it costs for one night? Two thousand dollars! What the hell! Two thousand dollars to sleep a night! hey show you...

    Mail 4: I’m a little annoying today.

    Mail Five: Fuck! Laozi saved half a year's salary to buy him a watch, he actually said it was ugly! Ugly bastard! Ugly? ! Almost 20,000 oceans!

    …

    Tang Yi didn't really expect Gu Yanting to give him an explanation that completely relieved him, no matter how beautiful the words were, the damage had already been done, and the estrangement and cracks over the years were also from an email At first, the cracks gradually expanded, and finally it got out of hand.

    But looking back now, the same email has a completely different intent and expression. Just like the same sentence "You go to death", flirting and flirting among lovers, "go to die" with soft fingers crossed, must meet the enemy with jealous eyes and thick neck "go to die" has the exact opposite. semantics. How to understand it depends on the background of the environment. Gu Yanting said such a second-class remark, which made people grit their teeth, but Tang Yi's problem was that he already had a preconceived impression, and even held his pride and aloofness when he saw the email. Ken sought an explanation on the spot.

    Tang Yi didn't start with real force, but was a little annoyed, but he didn't know how to express it at all. After Gu Yanting waited for him to stop, he kept turning his head to look at him, and waited until he lay down to sleep angrily, before wrapping his arms around him.

    "Actually, I don't mean to dislike you." Gu Yanting rubbed his back and whispered in Tang Yi's ear, "I think, I might be showing off a bit."

    Tang Yi was still angry, "What is there to show off?"

    "He always showed off before, showing off his computer, his mobile phone, how much he spent on a trip with others, and always compared with me." Gu Yanting said embarrassingly, "Later Don't I raise my eyebrows, I just want to earn some face back."

    Tang Yi silently pushed him, but he didn't push, suddenly remembered the time when Lin Rui just returned to China. A tiny thought flashed through his mind, and finally he asked calmly, "He looked for you yesterday, why didn't you invite him to a better coffee shop?"

    "Ah?" Gu Yanting was stunned, "It's not bad, it cost more than fifty."

    "Where are you in your fifties, can't you buy him a thousand meals?"

    "..." Gu Yanting was silent for a while, and finally said slowly, "Actually, that day... I just wanted to pretend to be a complacent. But I regretted it when I checked out, and I couldn't do it because I was distressed. , I also asked for an invoice and scratched the prize... I didn't win."

    Gu Yanting's voice was weak when he said "missing", Tang Yi was angry and funny, and his lungs hurt when he fell asleep.

    No one knows better than Tang Yi how good Gu Yanting was in the past. For example, asking for an invoice and packing the leftovers seems to be a loss. Gu Yanting never does it, nor does Tang Yi do it.

    At that time, Tang Yi just liked him. Before the trivial fusion with the oil bottle and the salt jar, that kind of like was often very calm, and even listed each other's faults and shortcomings. At that time, Gu Yanting's biggest shortcoming in Tang Yi's heart was his good face, so that Tang Yi was often embarrassed to death on various occasions.

    For example, the two went to the luxury shopping mall in the center of T city for the first time. Tang Yi had been there before, and later opened a dessert shop on the second floor of the shopping mall. He called Gu Yanting on a whim. Valentine's Day there. They had just been working at that time, and neither of them were qualified to frequent such places. Tang Yi's original intention was to reward Gu Yanting and satisfy their little vanity at the same time. Who knew that Gu Yanting would arrive soon, His first words made him embarrassed.

    Gu Yanting saw Tang Yi from a distance and walked over with a solemn face, and asked, "Why are you waiting for me here?"

    Tang Yi was stunned for a moment, then heard Gu Yanting sigh, and said in a very loud voice, "Damn, Wang Gang told me that he bought XX shoes today and cost five hundred Much. This prodigal piece of shit."

    The man named Wang Gang has been out of touch with Gu Yanting for a long time. Five hundred shoes, that is, Tang Yi and he were reluctant to buy them, but they couldn't count them in luxury shopping malls. Tang Yi wiped his face in embarrassment, but Gu Yanting didn't even realize it, as if my friend was bragging.

    Tang Yi was very depressed at the time, but when he saw that Gu Yanting was wearing a set of early autumn clothes, he felt a sharp pain in his heart - it was Gu Yanting's most expensive clothes, but it was very thin , in February, the big north wind in T City still smelled of ice ballast. This suit does not block the cold or the wind. Gu Yanting chose it because he was afraid that it would be embarrassing to wear shabby clothes.

    Gu Yanting has a good face, so he is afraid of being looked down upon. Whether it's his clothes that don't fit the season or his rhetoric for fear that others will think he has no money, it's actually just a sign of a guilty conscience. There is a saying, "The more a person emphasizes something, the more he lacks something." Tang Yi took it seriously, and only when he put it on Gu Yanting did he realize that he actually cared about money.

    Many people have made various comparisons between the children of the poor and the children of the rich, and there are many experts from all walks of life who have published articles on equality or inequality. Tang Yi thinks he has climbed up from the bottom, and he often disdains such topics. In his eyes, those who like to talk about this are mostly losers who make excuses for their failures but don't work hard. Even whenever he saw similar topics, he would have a deep sense of contempt and superiority.

    But when Gu Yanting went to that station with some restraint and pretending to be arrogant, and there was a small and elegant order not far behind him, Tang Yicai realized that the gap really existed.

      Will it be embarrassing?

    It's just that Tang Yi is used to being restrained, and Gu Yanting doesn't know how to hide it.

    Tang Yi was repeatedly embarrassed by this, but strangely because of empathy, he had an idea of ​​​​protecting Gu Yanting. Later, their salaries gradually increased, they bought a house and a car, and they had money and cards in their bags. Gu Yanting stopped talking about "a classmate" and "a friend". It's just that Tang Yi didn't expect that the real intention of Gu Yanting's email was to "have a boyfriend" without changing the medicine.

    However, to make Gu Yanting ask for an invoice after eating in front of Lin Rui, and just for the ten yuan and fifty yuan prize, I can only say that this is really a pain in the ass.

    ---

    Gu Yanting didn't ask for leave when he came back this time. Tang Yi's ink was on Wednesday, and when he woke up in the morning, he received a call from the company. The colleague's tone was very good, and he even said to him slightly teasingly, "Mr. Gu, are you running to Wenrou Township and can't get up? But it's already December, so you insist on winning this year's year-end award."

    Gu Yanting coughed a little, only to realize that it had been two days in a flash.

    The colleague smiled clearly, and after a long delay, he said, "But it's okay, you have saved a lot of vacations before, it's useless, just come back and make a fake note." Gu Yanting I used to work so hard before that even the two-week annual leave was useless. This colleague had a good relationship with him and thought he was chasing a girl, so he kindly suggested that he use his annual leave first, otherwise he would have no chance after this month.

    Gu Yanting suddenly realized, just after a few chats, he felt the phone vibrate and another number came in. He took the phone away from his ear and glanced at it, and he almost hung up his colleague's phone when he saw it.

    "...She can agree to it, anyway, the fake note can still be made up, by the way, don't forget to fax me the two pieces of paper," the colleague said with a smile, listening to no movement, and shouted, "Old Gu?"

    Gu Yanting hurriedly returned to his senses, "Ah, ah, I see."

    "Don't forget." The colleague said, "I'll hang up first."

    The colleague hung up, and Lin Rui's phone also hung up at the same time.

    Gu Yanting just breathed a sigh of relief, when he saw the screen of his mobile phone flicker, and a text message came in, "Would it be convenient for you to accompany me to the hospital?"

    —

    The sun on the winter morning did not bring any warmth to the person, and even until eight or nine o'clock, Lin Rui could not see the shadow of Father Sun. He didn't wear much today. The beige cotton T was covered with a light gray coat, with a fresh and fashionable look. When he stopped on Jianghuai Road, the attention he attracted was proportional to the cold wind he encountered.

    When Gu Yanting ran over from a distance, he was smiling and rejecting a girl's approach, and when he turned his face, the smile on his face hadn't faded, so he said to Gu Yanting very naturally, "I thought I was disturbing you. It's time for you to rest."

    "No." Gu Yanting wrapped his clothes, with a handbag hanging on his arm, bulging. He looked Lin Rui up and down, and then asked, "Are you going to the hospital?"

    Lin Rui hummed, looked at Gu Yanting, pursed his lips, and then lowered his head. He often makes such actions, which generally means that it is difficult to answer, or a little sad. Gu Yanting didn't know whether it was the former or the latter this time, so he could only jump on the spot to keep warm.

    Fortunately, Lin Rui bowed his head enough and finally gave the answer. He raised his head and said with a wry smile, "My mother reexamined today, I... I don't want to go alone."

    "Ah, that's it." Gu Yanting rubbed his hands and asked with concern, "Then did you tell your father, or your uncle, aunt, grandpa, or them?"

    “…not yet.”

    "Let's talk to them." Gu Yanting said, "The situation is definitely good, don't worry. Besides, if it's bad...you should also let the family prepare." He After a pause, he jumped word by word, "Besides, I'm an outsider and I can't help you much."

    His last sentence is not as fluent as before, but the meaning is very clear. Lin Rui was stunned for a while. After a while, he smiled awkwardly and explained, "Going to see my mother is just one of them, and my legs hurt a bit. I want you to accompany me to see it."

    He rarely talks about leg pain, but whenever he talks about it, Gu Yanting will definitely listen. Lin Rui's original intention today was to ask Gu Yanting to accompany him to the hospital to see his mother, and then stop by for lunch to recall the university with him. He even thought about what to talk about during dinner that would best evoke Gu Yanting's previous feelings for him, and how could he implicitly show that he was being harassed by Tang Yi in the company.

    Who knew that Gu Yanting didn't agree to go out with him immediately, Lin Rui felt a little lost, and his face was grievance and anxiety. He was afraid that Gu Yanting didn't hear clearly, so he gently supported his knees.

    Gu Yanting looked over excitedly.

    Lin Rui bit his lower lip and looked at him sadly, but then heard Gu Yanting ask, "Your leg hurts? Did it just hurt recently?"

    Lin Rui nodded.

    Gu Yanting looked at his leg busy and concerned, and said, "It hurts after returning to City T, right? Was it okay before?"

    "Yeah, what's wrong."

    "I don't believe Tang Yi said that you must have a pain in your leg," Gu Yanting breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly handed over the things in his hand, "Tsk, here it is, take it."

    “…”

    "Padded trousers," Gu Yanting saw that Lin Rui was not picking it up, and sent it forward. After putting it in his hand, he sighed and patted Lin Rui on the shoulder, "We checked it out. It's been a long time, and if your legs hurt in winter, it's freezing! Look at your soreness and wear it so much, it will be even more sad when you get old. This was bought by Tang Yi before. "
