For the first time, Ye Qin felt that the duration of a song was so long.

Fortunately, I have sung it countless times, and the lyrics and melody are as deep in my mind as muscle memory, and I can sing it step by step.

After singing, Tang Chong took the lead in applauding, and invited the three of them to sit down and drink together. He Hansong sat down next to Tang Chong, and Song? was pulled to her side by the familiar producer sister. Ye Qin wanted to take advantage of the chaos to escape, but just turned his head and bumped into the waiter who came in to add chairs, and was pushed by Zheng Yueyue After a while, he sat down in a daze.

The large round table has plenty of space, and the three of them are enough to sit. Ye Qin secretly glanced to the right while the waiter was serving food, and Cheng Feichi was sitting less than two meters away from him, with a person in the middle.

He was the one who said he wanted to eat with his belly open before coming here, and now he is the one who lost his appetite looking at the dazzling array of dishes. After toasting two glasses of wine to the leaders present with the other two in the group, Yeqin sat quietly in his seat, praying that the dinner would end quickly.

But God did not fulfill his wish. Within half an hour, the guests sitting on the right left the table first under the pretext of "there is still a game to catch", and the waiter immediately came up to remove the tableware and chairs. Now there is nothing between the two of them except the air, and they can catch each other from the corner of their eyes wherever they look.

Ye Qin was sitting on pins and needles, wishing he could become an invisible person. It suddenly occurred to him that he was wearing makeup on his face, and his voice was very low when he introduced himself just now, maybe Cheng Feichi didn't recognize him.

This thought immediately made him feel a lot more relaxed. He slightly relaxed his stiff body joints, and straightened his waist that had been bowed since he sat down.

After getting rid of the initial embarrassment and embarrassment, belated joy spread in my heart. Cheng Feichi is back, and just thinking about it can make people fidget with excitement.

And he seems to be doing well. Ye Qin picked up the water glass on the table, looked up at Cheng Feichi again the moment he drank the water, his side face was as deep and handsome as before, his white shirt was unbuttoned two buttons, just showing his Adam's apple, but the cuffs were tightly buttoned, attracting people To admire his slender and beautiful hands.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to the people talking about wine, Ye Qin carefully looked at his hand, seeing the joints and veins on the back of the hand fluctuate smoothly due to the movement of holding the wine glass, and the warm touch of being held emerged again.

The dark movie theater, the tree-lined avenue in late autumn, the sunny playground... This hand once held me tightly, as if holding the most precious treasure in the world.

Ye Qin gritted his teeth until his cheeks became hard, and then suppressed the moisture in his eyes, so as not to lose his composure in front of so many people.

He really is back.

Nothing special happened in the second half of the banquet. It is the habit of Chinese people to discuss business at the wine table, and the topics are inevitably boring. Ye Qin only pricked up his ears to listen to Cheng Feichi's opinion when they flattered them.

Cheng Feichi was invited this time, not for official business, so he rarely spoke. However, almost everyone here knows the status and influence of the Yi family in S city. Even if he doesn't take the initiative to speak, there is no shortage of people to strike up a conversation and flatter him.

"Is Cheng always left-handed? I heard that left-handers are very smart."

Knowing that this was flattery under the guise of being curious, everyone continued to say that a certain president and a certain celebrity are left-handed, and left-handed people are more active in their thinking, etc.

Facing everyone's compliments, Cheng Feichi's face was not happy. He put down the cup in his hand and said calmly, "No, my right hand was injured, so it's inconvenient."

After the banquet was over, Ye Qin was still recalling what happened to his hand. The parting back then was too hasty, half of the unfinished questions were answered in these years of groping, and the other half rushed into the sky with the plane that he had no chance to see at the end, and disappeared without a trace.

The five years of this fault opened a thick and long veil between them, completely separated their inextricable connections, and then cut them off.

How can a short reunion be better than a long parting? In a daze, Ye Qin had a delusion in his heart that time would start from forgetting, no matter how downcast and embarrassing he was at the moment, even if this was their first meeting.

After washing his face in the bathroom, he was the last one to leave on purpose, but he bumped into Tang Chong, who was waiting for a rabbit, at the corner of the corridor.

Ye Qin subconsciously raised his head to look for the monitor, Tang Chong smiled and said, "Don't panic, baby Qinqin, I just want to say a few words to you."

Ye Qin frowned and said, "Where's He Hansong?"

Tang Chong proudly said: "Sure enough, I'm jealous. I said that as long as you follow me, everything about him will belong to you. Why do you hesitate? I heard that... he got screwed again today?"

As he spoke, he leaned over and reached behind his back to touch Ye Qin's buttocks. As soon as he touched the fabric of his trousers, Ye Qin slapped him away.

Seeing him staring fiercely at his dark eyes, Tang Chong became even more excited, wrapped his arms around his waist and pushed him to the corner: "I just like your pride like a little wild cat."

It's not that Ye Qin has never been harassed by Tang Chong before. This guy relied on his father's ability to do whatever he wanted. He usually bullies the weak and fears the hard. Today, after drinking some wine, he became bolder. He pushed him and pouted to kiss him. . Ye Qin almost vomited from the smell of alcohol, raised his hand and slapped him on the face.

He couldn't control the strength, and directly knocked the person's head off. Tang Chong took two steps back, covered his face and stayed there for a while, his expression changed from disbelief to shame and anger, and he stepped forward and grabbed Ye Qin by the collar and pressed him against the wall.

"Damn it, it's shameless to give you face. Do you think I'm still the young master of the Ye family?"

Ye Qin's eyes widened slightly, and without waiting for a reaction, Tang Chong forcibly lifted his chin.

"There are tens of thousands of people who want to sleep in my bed, don't take yourself too seriously." Tang Chong laughed, "If it weren't for your face, these years would grow... ouch!"

Hearing a muffled "bang", the first thing Ye Qin did when he broke free from the shackles was to hit Tang Chong with his forehead with all his strength, until he lost his strength and let go, and he took the opportunity to push him away and run away .

On the stairs, Yeqin ran quickly while thinking about what to do next.

Tell Zheng Yueyue, beg her for help? No, she works for the company and puts profit first. Knowing that he offended Tang Chong, maybe instead of helping him, she might even persuade him to follow Tang Chong.

Looking for a chance to apologize to Tang Chong? He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to pretend to be a grandson, and that guy would poke his anger at him with his mean words, and fight again if he didn't speculate in what he said.

After these five years of hard work, Ye Qin is no longer the ignorant young master of the Ye family. Even if he can't control his temper occasionally, he will quickly find a way out for himself.

After all, in this world, there will no longer be anyone who accommodates him unconditionally.

While his thoughts were chaotic, he lowered his head and turned out of the corridor, accidentally crashing into the arms of a man in a suit.

Cheng Feichi had just finished answering a phone call, and was about to return to the box to pick up his things. When the elevator was full, he chose to take the stairs, but he didn't expect to run into him.

He was taller than before, and he stood up straight to his ears. His appearance is also slightly different from before. The immature baby fat has faded away, and the contours of the facial features have become sharp and three-dimensional. The overall appearance is still delicate and supple, which is not at all different from his personality.

When he bumped into someone, his first reaction was panic. Seeing that it was him, he took two steps back in a panic, just in time for people to see his red forehead and messy collar clearly.

He got into conflict with people. Cheng Feichi thought so.

There was the sound of high-heeled shoes behind her, and a woman came over: "Why did it take you so long to come out? We waited for you for a long time... What did you do with your head? Did you fight with He Hansong again?"

Ye Qin turned his head away, as if he didn't want to be seen, Cheng Feichi heard him mutter in a low voice: "No."

Zheng Yueyue found that there were other people present, nodded and said to Cheng Feichi, "I'm just kidding around, I'm sorry to scare you." Then she pushed Ye Qin, "Quickly apologize to Mr. Cheng."

Ye Qin raised his head and glanced at him, then quickly looked away, his lips were murmured for a long time, but he didn't say a word.

Cheng Feichi was about to say no, but at this moment, the elevator on the other side stopped on the first floor, and Tang Chong came out of the car in a panic, rolled up his sleeves and came straight to Ye Qin: "Damn you brat, how dare you hit me?" I?"

Ye Qin turned around and hid, Zheng Yueyue also opened his arms to stop him, he didn't ask what happened, he tried to persuade him first: "Mr. Tang, don't be angry, just talk about it, there are so many eyes watching..."

There were people coming and going in the hotel lobby, but no one paid attention to the movement in the corner.

Under the cover of Zheng Yueyue, Ye Qin leaned against the wall and was about to run away, but Tang Chong learned how to be smart this time, instead of fighting with the person in front of him, he pushed Zheng Yueyue away and strode to Ye Qin's side, and twisted his wrist with his right hand Cut back behind him, clenched his left hand and raised it high, about to fall on his face.

He was stopped by someone who stood aside and said nothing.

Cheng Feichi restrained Tang Chong's fist that was about to land on Ye Qin's face, and said expressionlessly, "Mr. Tang, in public."

Tang Chong was actually a little apprehensive about this young master of the Yi family who had only met twice.

He appeared suddenly in this circle. At first, everyone mocked his surname as Cheng Bu and Yi. Later, it was heard that he was entrusted with important tasks as soon as he returned to China. All in his hands. You must know that the Yi family made a fortune as a hotel chain, and whoever handed over this crucial part is equivalent to appointing someone as the heir.

At this point, each family began to attach importance to their contacts with Cheng Feichi. However, this young master of the Yi family, surnamed Cheng, never spends time with the young masters of the local aristocratic family. Usually, only business parties can invite him, and he always has a cold face and a business-like attitude wherever he goes. The playboys headed by Chong made friends with him under the coercion of the father at home, but because of the Yi family's face, they had to stay low and be small, which was really miserable.

He's still meddling in his own business right now. Tang Chong was full of anger, but had to compromise, let Ye Qin go and at the same time made room for himself, saying: "This little star has dirty hands and feet, stealing my things and hurting others." He pointed to his forehead, "Here, this is He did it."

"You fart!" Ye Qin, who had endured so much, finally became angry, "You know who has dirty hands and feet."

Cheng Feichi finally understood how the two people got the same swollen forehead, glanced at Ye Qin, and asked Tang Chong: "He, stealing something?"

Tang Chong's eyes flicked back and forth between the two of them. He had no other skills, but he was good at observing words and expressions, so he immediately guessed: "You... know each other?"

"do not know."

"know."

Contradictory answers emerged from both of them at the same time.

Ye Qin, who directly denied it without thinking, was taken aback for a moment, and turned his head to look at the person who hadn't dared to look at him until now.

He finally realized that he was so overwhelmed by the joy of reunion just now that he thought Cheng Feichi didn't recognize him.

How can you not recognize it? He once gave him so many injuries, just like the wound on the palm of his hand, even if it heals, scars, and new flesh grows, it will remind him not to forget the pain at that time in every movement of palm opening and closing and finger bending and hate.

An attitude that is recognizable at a glance but calm as water, and a gaze that does not stop, is the best revenge.

Tang Chong was also stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "It's because of my poor eyesight. I was at the wine table for so long just now, and I didn't realize that the two of you knew each other."

Zheng Yueyue looked surprised, looked at this and that, and asked Ye Qin: "Are you and Cheng always friends?"

"No." Yeqin denied again.

Tang Chong's smile was even more meaningful: "Yo, then I don't understand, could it be the long-lost brothers?"

It was a light joke, but the two words at the end of the sentence seemed to turn into two sharp steel needles, piercing Yeqin's chest quickly and accurately.

Before Cheng Feichi could speak, he took the first step: "Old classmate."

Even knowing how embarrassed he looks now, Ye Qin still took a deep breath, straightened his back and added, "Student from high school."

He didn't dare to listen to Cheng Feichi's answer.

He wanted to save himself the last bit of decency in front of him.
