Quanquan: "..."
Qiao Guangyu: "..."
"If it weren't for the boss, he would have a guilty conscience," Quan Quan said weakly, "I guess he would think we are having an affair."
Qiao Guangyu almost wanted to cry: "I really didn't mean it, I was also scared okay..." Who would have thought that the boss would be so scheming, he would never give him a chance to share the bed, the two gays hug each other, unless the two Everyone has hidden diseases, otherwise it would be difficult to think of something wrong.
"Then I... go back to sleep again?" Qiao Guangyu asked worriedly.
"Forget it, if you go back again, it will only embarrass the boss." Quan Quan shook his head, "He promised not to touch you, but he couldn't help but want you, so it's fine if you ran away, and you went back to deepen his affection. Is this an unpleasant memory?"
Qiao Guangyu shook his head quickly: "Of course not."
"Then you can make do with me for one night." Quanquan called the waiter to bring up another quilt, and said to Qiao Guangyu, "This is a single room. You sleep on the bed at night, and I will sleep on the floor."
Qiao Guangyu said: "Brother Quan, let me make the floor shop, I will trouble you today."
"Then we can sleep together." Quanquan looked at him coldly, "Whether you sleep by yourself, or I sleep with you, there are only two options."
"Why?"
Quanquan lowered his eyes: "Because I am a secretary and you are a 'lover', in the eyes of the boss, you are more important than me. If you catch cold because you sleep on the floor at night, it will only add more trouble to me. "
Qiao Guangyu snorted, and quickly made a choice: "Then let's sleep together, I don't want you to catch a cold either."
Quan Quan said indifferently: "Aren't you afraid that I will take advantage of you?"
"Don't be afraid, just take it, I won't suffer if they are all men." Qiao Guangyu looked at him and smiled.
Quan Quan reminded him: "The boss is also a man."
"The boss is different, he has a partner." Qiao Guangyu waved his hand, looking at Quanquan's eyes as if they could penetrate the soul, "And I believe you, your self-control is extraordinary, all actions are calculated , you won’t do anything detrimental to your secretarial work at this time.”
Quan Quan was a little speechless, and the last topic ended with his sneer.
After turning off the desk lamp, the quilts of the two were squeezed together. Qiao Guangyu wrapped the quilt and asked softly, "Are you asleep?"
"No." Quan Quan said.
Qiao Guangyu: "Brother Quan, do you remember when my contract expired?"
Quan Quan's voice sounded a little fuzzy: "There are more than two months until the end of this year, December 27th."
"You have a really good memory." Qiao Guangyu said.
"I remember very clearly the details of all the important contracts signed by the boss." Quan Quan said, "A good secretary must have something special, otherwise the people under him will sooner or later eliminate you."
Qiao Guangyu asked: "Are you born with the ability to remember so many things?"
Quan Quan: "It's just rote memorization."
"Three hundred and sixty lines, each line is not easy to do!" Qiao Guangyu sighed sincerely. He thought that tonight he had more deeply realized the difficulty of "accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger", but after hearing what Quan Quan said , he felt that he was actually nothing compared to Quan Quan, and Quan Quan was the one who was not easy.
He paid a lot to sit in Huo Zhou's indispensable right and left hand position.
He was always so calm and thoughtful that no one noticed that Quan Quan was also a human being, not a machine.
Qiao Guangyu said with a smile, "I found myself relying on you a little too much."
Quan Quan: "What?"
Qiao Guangyu: "When encountering difficulties, the first thing that comes to mind is you."
Quan Quan seemed to chuckle, Qiao Guangyu thought he heard it wrong.
"Sure, the boss wanted to find a substitute, and I sent you to him." Quanquan paused, and his tone softened a little, "I feel guilty towards you. I was not considerate enough at the time, It made your current situation so embarrassing. In fact, no one in this world can be someone’s stand-in. No matter how you act, your behavior still carries your own label. No one can wipe it off from you. The imprint of going away. If you let you strangle yourself, lose yourself, and force you to become another person, then even if I am not the executioner, I will still be the one who helped pass the knife, and I feel sorry for my conscience."
"No...it's not as serious as you said. I'm fine now." Qiao Guangyu couldn't help but said, "You really helped me a lot, and the merits and demerits...weighed out."
Quan Quan didn't say anything, just stretched out his hand from the warm blanket, touched Qiao Guangyu's head with his broad palm, and then retracted it.
After being quiet for about ten minutes, Qiao Guangyu felt the beating of his own heart, and said abruptly: "Do you like me? I mean... I will be free in two months. Do you want to..."
"Go to sleep." Quan Quan interrupted him, his voice sounded cold.
Qiao Guangyu could feel that he didn't want to say more, even if he asked again in the future, he might not get the answer he wanted.
Feeling a little lost, but okay, bearable. Perhaps it was because of the inexplicable sense of security that people were by his side, or maybe it was because of the exhaustion of the day, Qiao Guangyu could not bear it anymore, Qiao Guangyu soon fell asleep soundly, without even having a dream.
Before dawn, Quanquan got up.
People who are used to thinking often are not easy to fall asleep or stay in bed. With his eyes open, there was no reason to waste time lying on the bed. Quan Quan sat up carefully, the mattress was very elastic, and he was worried that the movement of getting up would disturb Qiao Guangyu.
However, he was completely overthinking, Qiao Guangyu slept soundly, turned over along the slight ups and downs of the mattress, pressed the quilt under his body, his hair was in a mess, and his pajamas were rolled up, revealing a part of his body. White and soft waist. I didn't realize it, and opened my mouth slightly, looking very stupid.
Quan Quan was silent for three seconds, pulled his quilt over to cover him, then got out of bed, dressed and washed.
When Qiao Guangyu got up, it was already broad daylight. When he faced Huo Zhou again, he felt much more at ease, and Huo Zhou didn't seem to take what happened last night to heart, or he forcibly forgot it as if it never happened.
Qiao Guangyu would not bring up this matter without winking, so the matter was successfully turned over.
After breakfast, Quan Quan was still the driver, and drove the two of them to the cemetery.
Quanquan bought incense candles early in the morning, and brought a bouquet of fresh and tender white lilies, and put them in the trunk of the car, so he could take all his things to the cemetery as soon as he got out of the car.
Huo Zhou asked Quan Quan to wait while he accompanied Qiao Guangyu to the black tombstone, where Qiao Guangyu's mother was buried.
The autumn is crisp and the sun is just right, dispelling the inherent cold and damp in the cemetery. The woman in the black and white photo doesn't look much like Qiao Guangyu, but she is also a gentle and beautiful woman. She looks a little like Qiao Guangyu when she looks at the camera with a smile.
Huo Zhou took out the incense candle and lighter from the plastic bag, and Qiao Guangyu quickly took them over: "I'll do it." He didn't dare to let Huo Zhou do it himself.
Quickly lit the incense and candles and put them on, and symbolically burned a few Ming coins, Qiao Guangyu whispered to the tombstone: "Mom, there is no fire here, and we have to put out the candles when we leave later." Yes, don't be offended."
When he thought that his contract was about to expire, he could do whatever he wanted in the future, and when he didn't have to pretend to be himself, there was an unconscious lightness and happiness in his speech. Of course, the words can't be said so directly: "Mr. Huo... treats me very well, in the future... I will live a good life, so I won't let you worry."
Scratching his head, Qiao Guangyu really had nothing to say. Some things he wanted to say could never be said in front of Huo Zhou, so he could only stop here: "Then... I will come to see you next year." Maybe I can visit you with Brother Quan next year, he added in his heart.
"I'm sorry." Qiao Guangyu stood up and smiled apologetically at Huo Zhou, "I kept Mr. Huo waiting for so long."
Huo Zhou came over and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't be sad, I will take care of you in the future, you... You have been with me for two years, right?"
"Almost three years." Qiao Guangyu blurted out.
Huo Zhou froze for a moment, as if he had thought of something, his complexion suddenly became ugly, and the hand on Qiao Guangyu's shoulder increased his strength uncontrollably, pinching Qiao Guangyu in pain, but he didn't dare to move step. Huo Zhou took a deep breath, and tentatively asked, "Have you thought about what kind of job you will do in the future? What major did you study in college?"
"... I majored in computer science, and I never thought about what to do. I was very happy to have a job at that time. As a fresh graduate, the competition is very high." Qiao Guangyu smiled slightly.
In fact, the palms of his hands were already sweating. Qiao Guangyu had been with Huo Zhou for so long, and when he saw him pull his face down, he thought it was bad. He really didn't mean to remind Huo Zhou that the contract was about to expire!
Huo Zhou narrowed his eyes: "Speaking of which, you have 5 million in your hand, have you ever thought about doing something with it?"
A drop of cold sweat fell from the corner of Qiao Guangyu's forehead. He looked into Huo Zhou's examining eyes, and the only thought in his heart was: Brother Quan! Help!
