Handing in the mobile phone, the schedule of the closed training game, unless Li Zhongchen can find a substitute for himself, there is no time to go out to meet Bo Lin.
He could only try to ask the other party if he would like to come to the SVG base.
But probably because of Qiu Yan, Bo Lin politely refused. Li Zhongchen had no choice but to make an exception and ask Lao Wang to borrow a mobile phone. At night, the cold wind was blowing downstairs in the base, freezing like an idiot, and talking to this Bo brother.
Bo Lin: "Are you crossing the catastrophe? Why does the wind sound a bit strong over there?"
It's not like Du Jie, it's true that his face was a little numb from the blowing.
Li Zhongchen: "..."
Li Zhongchen: "I'm downstairs, I'll go to the convenience store by the way."
Bo Lin said to the point: "It's to hide from your partner, right? Qiao Yi probably doesn't know about your relationship with me. It's been seven or eight years since I visited Uncle Li in the hospital."
This is okay at first glance, strange.
Li Zhongchen put his hands in his pockets, bowed his head and walked towards the street. When he thought of the intricate development of fate beyond human control, he felt a little emotional.
Li Zhongchen smiled a little far-fetched: "He doesn't know, and there's no need to let him know before, it's me who bothered Brother Bai."
Li Zhongchen also finds it incredible that a superstar with a full schedule can take time out to solve worries and doubts.
It was one thing for his father to help him in an accident back then. Years later, his fate was stacked one after another, and it was inevitable that Li Zhongchen could contact him proactively.
"Don't bother, it's just that we haven't met each other for so many years," Bo Lin said, "But you probably don't know, I have seen you come to this point with my own eyes."
"Qiu Yan started playing at the same time as you. Back then he was playing in the EOL team, and you were already half a pillar in his brother-in-law's club. I know all of this. You have suffered much more than him."
The white air exhaled by Li Zhongchen rose slowly.
He seldom talks with older brothers like this. He is used to taking care of others, so he tends to feel embarrassed and diverts the topic elsewhere: "It seems that Qiu Yan has deceived me again. He should be with you." Let's live together."
Bo Lin smiled and said, "Well, I separated from him for a while later, but the situation is not like that of you and Qiao Yan."
Li Zhongchen walked along the road under the warm yellow light, his shadow was long and slanted.
Everything is as cold as an icehouse that no one visits. The weather forecast will snow tonight, once in a few years, but the intensity will not be as strong as the heavy snow in the northern region.
Bo Lin: "I'm very curious about the reason for your separation."
Li Zhongchen: "Many factors, I have a bad temper, and he is also used to being bored in everything."
"The most important thing is that something happened at that time. Although he said he believed in me, he still misunderstood him. He thought that I could give up on him and choose someone else."
Li Zhongchen seemed to be looking for empathy: "I'm ashamed to say that I was too late to understand the matter of love. I used to think about respecting his choice and not wanting to hurt him anymore. Many problems appeared on my side. I didn't take good care of his feelings, so when we separated, all I could do was not to disturb him."
Bo Lin asked, "What happened next?"
Li Zhongchen: "Later when he came back, I stalked him to look at me again, only at me, but I should have known earlier that he was more fragile than me and couldn't let go. He never looked at others …”
Li Zhongchen got to the point, and stopped beside the telephone booth on the side of the road, looking lonely.
Bo Lin thought for a long time before saying: "I had contact with Qiao Yan in the United States, and his state at that time surprised me. His thoughts were all written on his face, and he seemed to be paralyzing himself in everything he did. In fact, he was growing up abroad. Big kids shouldn't be like this, especially since the two fathers in his family treated him very well."
Li Zhongchen's heart skipped a beat.
The 24-hour convenience store emits warm lights in the long night, like a small container carrying thousands of stories in the city.
The Kanto soup pot is bubbling, and the old man selling roasted sweet potatoes is riding a tricycle.
At that time, they were just ordinary teenagers of seventeen or eighteen, wearing couple style canvas shoes, and Li Zhongchen would secretly kiss Qiao Yan's side face in corners where no one noticed.
Li Zhongchen's throat was dry: "After we separated, he had a bad life, and so did I."
He knows better than anyone else how Joe is in the US server, but he can't guess what the lover who has infiltrated every aspect of his life is thinking. I can't get out of my emotions.
But fortunately, after going around in circles, the person in front of me is still my sweetheart, and they have learned to grow up with each other.
Bo Lin also said: "He couldn't bear to part with you, and finally came back."
Li Zhongchen said: "Yes."
At this point, Li Zhongchen never expected that Bo Lin would say: "We had a drink in New York once, and Qiao Yan was picked up by a friend because of the cooperation at work. Lu, I heard that she made a phone call to Qiao Yan's friend..."
Li Zhongchen held his breath and waited for the other party's words.
"Probably Ni Naru persuaded Qiao Yan's friend not to let him watch those videos you live broadcast in China," Bo Lin's memory stopped abruptly, "By the way, how is your relationship with Ni Naru?"
"Not good," Li Zhongchen added, "not even very familiar."
After hearing this, Bo Lin was silent for quite a while.
Suddenly, catkin-like snowflakes came to the world quietly, rustling down.
Li Zhongchen was stunned for a while, standing on the side of the empty road, seeing everything was gradually stained with a thin layer of white sand, at the same time, the voices of people came from the continuous flow of vehicles on the road—
"It's snowing!"
"It's really snowing! Dad, look!"
Li Zhongchen's strong feeling of wanting to share is about to break out. The first person that comes to mind in his mind is wanting to hold him and not let go, wanting to see him soon and hug him tightly.
It's a pity that the beautiful domestic kitten is still fighting in the game late at night, not forgetting to eat Lawson's cake.
Thinking of this, Li Zhongchen couldn't help laughing out loud.
Bo Lin asked at the other end: "I seem to have heard someone say that it's snowing?"
Li Zhongchen: "Yes, I guess it will last all night."
The ancients have always said that auspicious snow heralds a good year.
The SVG team had a fierce record and won countless trophies in the snowy year a few years ago. Others have no way of knowing, but Li Zhongchen believes that this is indeed a good sign.
Bo Lin smiled and said, "The momentum is great. I wish your team the best of luck and win the championship."
Li Zhongchen also felt that it was time to end the topic.
His eyes were bright and clear, he strode towards the store, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Brother Bai."
Bo Lin was surprised by his politeness: "As for what you want to know, it's not difficult for me to find out for you here, but the final team list of your winner's group has been released, and you will face OPW directly the day after tomorrow. Do you want to know? Those things in the past... "
"...I've heard Qiu Yan say it more or less, but the e-sports industry is no bigger than the entertainment industry, and it's rare to get stumbled from behind. The essence is to rely on strength to speak. What happened to you in Busan was more or less an accident."
Li Zhongchen hummed: "After the game, why don't you come to our house to eat hot pot? Qiu Yan should come too."
Bo Lin laughed and said, "We're going to be filming, besides, it's better for me not to meet him recently."
Later, they talked about some relationship issues and hung up the phone.
Speaking of which, what happened in Busan back then, it is time for the overdue scars to heal. Whether it is physical or emotional, the details and the truth are not so important to him.
When Li Zhongchen checked out, he only bought a box of fresh breath mints for himself, but he swept a bunch of small cakes at the self-service cashier. He didn't care what flavor Qiao Yan wanted, anyway, he bought what he could buy first.
When he walked out of the shop, he raised his head while carrying the plastic bag, and saw Qiao Yan running towards him out of breath from a distance.
Qiao Yan has a thin silhouette and perfect proportions. In winter, he wears a knee-length coat and men's snow boots. He is gentle and neat, but has an almost weak beauty.
It wasn't until he got closer that he noticed that Qiao Yan's fair cheeks were flushed from the cold, making him look pitiful.
Li Zhongchen opened his arms and shouted: "It's snowing, be careful not to fall."
Qiao Yan also shouted from the air: "You know it's snowing, why did you go out with only a coat on?"
The snow flakes are getting denser and denser, and at first they were only scattered.
Looking around, even the iron railings on the street were stained with frost and snow, forming a vast expanse of whiteness, and the howling and biting cold wind suddenly became less annoying.
As Li Zhongchen got closer, his steps became slower and slower.
Until Qiao Yan hugged him tightly, and after briefly ending the hug, he took off his coat and wanted to put it on Li Zhongchen.
But as the plastic bag fell to the ground, Qiao Yan's wrist was gently pinched——
Li Zhongchen looped around his narrow waist, and put a kiss on his lips, it was an extremely long and gentle kiss.
Time stands still, shining under the night sky, like white wings spreading all over the sky.
There are no passers-by returning home, and the traffic has no intention of stopping. Fortunately, you are with me to appreciate this piece of first snow. I hold you tightly this time, and I will never let you go.
Qiao Yan quarreled with him with a smile: "Is it tired, be careful if someone sees it, you sneaked out and bought it for me when I told Yao Tong that I wanted to eat cake?"
Li Zhongchen kept his arms around him and said with a smile, "Well, let's go back."
