The next day was the weekend, Ji Ran slept until the afternoon, and when he woke up, he happened to see Qin Man changing clothes by the bedside.
"Wake up?" Qin Man said, "Would you like to sleep a little longer?"
Ji Randong didn't move. He glanced at him and continued to close his eyes: "Where are you going?"
"Go out and talk to your friends. I'm going to a class reunion tonight." Qin Man stepped forward and sat beside him, "Will we go together?"
"Don't go." Ji Ran's quilt was covered over his head. After thinking about it, he felt that it was wrong. He pulled it down and asked, "Classmates reunion?"
"Well." Without waiting for Ji Ran to ask, Qin Man said first, "Ji Wei is also there."
"Qin Man, are you bold?" Ji Ran sneered, "I promised to let you go?"
"Then I won't go, I'll come back after talking with my friends." Qin Man paused, "It's about my old house."
"Old house?"
Qin Man's tone was as usual: "Well. I lived there for more than 20 years, and I'm not very willing. Now I plan to buy it back. I have to ask about some procedures."
Ji Ran was silent for a few seconds: "Is there enough money?"
"It should be. If it's not enough, I'll ask a friend to borrow it."
"... When I die?" Ji Ran said, "You are not allowed to borrow money from others, it will disgrace me."
After speaking, he struggled to get up, leaned out half of his body, and opened the bedside cabinet.
Last night's affair left red marks on his body, all of which were left on purpose by Qin Man, on his neck, chest, back and even lower abdomen, especially against his fair skin.
Qin Man stared at these marks, his eyes obscure.
Ji Ran took out a card and threw it to him: "There is money in the card I gave you before. You can see if it is enough. Use this one. It's the same password."
Qin Man smiled a little: "You are so kind."
Ji Ran retracted the quilt: "Don't get tired of being crooked..." He suddenly remembered something, "At the class reunion, Xu Lin is also there?"
"Xu Lin?" Qin Man raised his eyebrows, "No, I didn't know him before."
Qin Man and Ji Wei have been classmates for six years, from junior high school to high school.
Then Xu Lin is Ji Wei's classmate? As far as Xu Lin said at the time, they should have known each other for a long time. It is a bit late to say that they are college classmates. According to the information, Ji Wei University was an intern in the company, and Xu Lin had followed him into the company at that time.
Ji Ran was still a little sleepy, he put it aside and planned to think about it when he was awake, but now he just wanted to go back to sleep.
He pulled the quilt back again: "Why don't you leave?"
"Let's go now." Qin Man kissed him across the quilt, "I'll come back after talking about things in the afternoon."
When Qin Man was gone, Ji Ran slowly stuck out his head. He stared at the ceiling, gradually awake.
What did Qin Man kiss him again
Why wasn't he scolded just now?
Ji Ran thought that he would have to talk to Qin Man about this next time. They are serious business, not in love, and there is no other occasion to do this kind of nasty things except to go to bed.
As soon as Ji Ran got up, Cheng Peng's phone came and asked him to go out to play.
Ji Ran's legs and feet were sore, he couldn't move, and he didn't want to stay at home, so he simply went over to be a spectator.
Yue Wenwen took his place in the auditorium early, and when he saw him coming, he shook his hand like a rattle. As soon as Ji Ran approached, he couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Ranran, you have a cold? Why are you wearing so thick?"
In April, the temperature in the city has risen to 27 degrees. Yue Wenwen has already put on a sleeveless T-shirt, but Ji Ran has a long sleeve to go out today.
Ji Ran took off his hat and brushed his hair: "Don't worry."
Yue Wenwen saw his face clearly and asked again, "Why are your eyes swollen? Didn't you sleep well?"
How could Ji Ran not sleep well, he has slept for a full twelve hours.
It was because he was too indulgent last night, he shed a lot of physiological tears, and when he was washing, he realized that his eyes were actually swollen from crying.
"Why did you change the course?" Ji Ran didn't want to answer him, so he changed the subject.
"Oh, Cheng Peng said that the stadium is close to Chen An's school. Chen An has an exam today, so it will be more convenient to pick him up later." Yue Wenwen said, "Cheng Peng seems to be really interested this time. Xiao Ran Ran, do you think he will take Chen An to go abroad someday?"
"how could I know."
"Oh. By the way, why didn't Qin Man come?"
"You don't care what he does."
"Okay, don't ask if you don't ask." Yue Wenwen picked up the phone and pulled out a video, "Look, I recorded it last night."
Before Ji Ran could see the content on the screen, he heard Wen Xiao's voice.
"Yue Wenwen, what do you mean... woo, do you have to bully me?"
Ji Ran frowned and glanced: "Who is the person next to him?"
"Oh, one of his predecessors, who knows." Yue Wenwen said.
Cheng Peng was tired, threw the ball elsewhere, and walked towards them.
"Let's have dinner together tonight?" Cheng Peng said, "I booked a hotel."
Yue Wenwen: "Book a hotel? Why is it so solemn all of a sudden."
"Today is Chen An's birthday."
Ji Ran glanced at the university town not far away: "He hasn't been with his classmates?"
In the past, when they were in school, their birthdays were basically celebrated with their classmates.
"I didn't agree." Cheng Peng said naturally.
Yue Wenwen said, "Why do you even care about his birthday?"
Cheng Peng laughed and didn't explain.
Chen An is too simple, and it is easy to make friends carelessly. The little boy who had the best friendship with Chen An in the university confessed to Cheng Peng when Cheng Peng picked up someone at the school last time.
Rather than spend his birthday with this kind of person, he might as well bring the person back forcibly.
When Chen An got into the car, his expression was very heavy.
Cheng Peng knew that he was playing with his temper, so he was not in a hurry to coax him, thinking that he would talk slowly when no one else was there.
On the other hand, Yue Wenwen leaned forward and said, "Chen An, I'm sorry, I just found out that today is your birthday, and I didn't buy you any gifts. I'll make it up for you later."
Chen An was stunned for a moment, then shook his head awkwardly and said, "No, no need."
Ji Ran hugged his waist and looked out the window, too lazy to intervene in their conversation, opened his mouth and yawned.
The phone vibrated in my hand.
Q: Are you awake? I'm going home now and bring you something to eat
Ji Ran leaned back, asked the address of Cheng Peng Hotel, and sent it to Qin Man.
Dad Ji: Use the card I gave you to buy a present on the street and bring it here. Today is Chen An's birthday.
—
Cheng Peng ordered the most extravagant hotel restaurant in the city. The amount of dishes was small, and he couldn't get enough of a premium set meal.
This restaurant is located on the top floor of the tallest building in Manchuria, overlooking the entire Manchurian city. It has a large area, few seats, a comfortable and elegant environment, and is expensive but decent. It is suitable for gatherings, dates and work.
Not long after they were seated, Qin Man arrived with a gift box in his hand.
"Why did you come so quickly?" Ji Ran asked.
"It happens to be around here." Qin Man handed the gift to Chen An, "Happy birthday. This is what Ji Ran asked me to buy."
Chen An's eyes widened, first glanced at Ji Ran, and then accepted it flattered: "Thank you, thank you..."
"Qin Man, sit down." When Qin Man sat down, Yue Wenwen put his hands together, very sincere, "I haven't apologized to you about Wen Xiao, I'm sorry, I didn't know he was so annoying at the time."
Qin Man smiled very kindly: "It's okay."
Cheng Peng glanced at the people around him.
Chen An's figure is relatively petite among boys. He is now shrugging his shoulders and playing with his mobile phone on the bottom of the table, looking a little pitiful.
"Are you still angry?" Cheng Peng sighed and asked, "Why have you been playing with your phone."
"No." Chen An's voice was very aggrieved, "I'm here, and I apologize to my classmates."
Cheng Peng asked, "What apology?"
Chen An said: "Originally, we agreed to celebrate our birthday together."
"If you don't have a birthday with me, what are you going to do with those irrelevant people?"
"...He, he's my friend." Chen An stubbornly said, "It's not an irrelevant person."
"Okay, okay. Next time there is a chance, I will make it up for them." Cheng Peng casually threw out a promise that he would not fulfill.
Ji Ran listened to their chat and was happy: "Cheng Peng, you are coaxing your son."
Cheng Peng raised his eyebrows: "Almost."
Chen An was still a little angry, but after hearing this, he was stunned for a long time, and his face turned red.
The dishes were brought up soon, Ji Ran was not in the mood to move the knife and fork.
Qin Man asked, "Why don't you eat it?"
"No appetite." Compared with these thousands of small pieces of steak, he prefers the extra large mutton pot at the food stall outside.
Qin Man: "I cut it for you?"
Yue Wenwen immediately pursed his lips: "Why are you four? Bullied me and just broke up with my boyfriend?"
"Don't." Ji Ran said, "I haven't broken my hand, you eat your own, leave me alone."
At the other end, Chen Anzheng was eating the beef that Cheng Peng cut for him. Hearing this, he couldn't help coughing twice.
He heard the elegant violin sound, and Ji Ran became more and more bored. He wiped his hands with the towel next to him and stood up.
Yue Wenwen hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?"
"bathroom."
Ji Ran didn't go to the toilet. He leaned on the railing in the corridor and looked at the people who came out. He took a puff of cigarette and said speechlessly, "Followers."
Qin Man groaned and took out a small gift box from his pocket.
"For you."
Ji Ran: "...what?"
"I just saw it when I bought a present for Chen An, and bought it."
Ji Ran didn't answer, he exhaled a breath of smoke and smiled: "Buy me gifts with my money, or how are you businessmen hateful."
"I use my own card. I know the price of the house. My own savings are enough. The money in the card has not been moved." Qin Man put the card on the gift box and handed it over, "Look at the happy birthday. do not like."
Ji Ran stared at the small box.
He wanted to see what medicine Qin Man was selling this time.
He took it, opened the gift roughly, flipped the box, and after seeing the contents clearly, the cigarette on his fingertips was almost unsteady.
A men's diamond ring shone brightly in the box and was particularly eye-catching under the overhead lights.
He was so frightened that his heart beat faster: "Qin Man, you fucking..."
"Don't get me wrong." Qin Man said, "This is your birthday present."
Ji Ran was even more inexplicable: "It's been three months since my birthday."
"I know, I didn't catch up at the time, and now I will supply you."
"...I'm not a kid, I'm not that hypocritical." Ji Ran threw it back, "I don't want it."
Ji Ran felt that Qin Man was not quite right.
To be precise, neither he nor Qin Man were right, but he couldn't tell what went wrong.
He thought that Qin Man would insist on giving him the ring. Who would have thought that the other party was silent for a while, then took the ring out of the box and slowly put it into his pocket. Even so.
Depend on. This man is not sincere.
Qin Man had guessed that Ji Ran would not accept it so easily. He put away the ring and asked, "Are there any more cigarettes?"
Qin Man rarely smoked, and Ji Ran hardly saw him touch it except after the incident.
He took out the cigarette case from his pocket and threw it in Qin Man's hand.
Qin Man skillfully flicked the end of the cigarette case, a cigarette jumped out, and he lowered his head to hold it.
Ji Ran glanced at him unconsciously, this bastard is not very good, but this face is never tired of seeing.
Qin Man raised his eyes, and Ji Raneng could vaguely see his own appearance from the bottom of his eyes.
Ji Ran shook his head, and after a while he remembered that he didn't give him a lighter.
Just as he put his hand into his pocket, Qin Man suddenly leaned over, and the cigarette butts of the two came together.
They were very close, Ji Ran held his breath, looked at Qin Man without blinking, and forgot to move for a while.
Qin Man stared straight at him, the corner of his mouth raised, and after a few seconds, the cigarette butt was lit.
Ji Ran's heart beat fast, and when he put his palm on his shoulder, he just wanted to chase people away.
"Qin Man?"
A familiar voice sounded not far away.
The two looked at the source of the sound at the same time.
Ji Wei was standing at the other end of the corridor in casual clothes, surrounded by a group of men and women of his age, all with surprise on their faces.
Seeing the two clearly, Ji Wei frowned even more.
"Ji Ran?" Their postures were too ambiguous, and Ji Wei had a complicated expression before he said, "Qin Man, didn't you say you were in a hurry at night and couldn't attend the party? Why are you here?"
These people are Qin Man's high school classmates.
Ji Ran didn't expect to see Ji Wei here, he maintained the position just now, standing there for a long time without moving.
"What should I do?" Qin Man was not in a hurry at all. He turned around and asked with a volume that only two people could hear, "The affair was discovered."
