fourteen
As the New Year was approaching, Qin Xuan was so busy that he couldn't see anyone. Only the local specialties and gifts with national flavors that appeared at home every once in a while could prove that he had stayed at home for so many minutes.
Shen Yan packed up the house and sent Qin Xuan a WeChat message saying that he had received these gifts.
The other party didn't know whether it was floating on the plane or busy and did not return. Shen Yan took the mobile phone with no surprise. These days, they have only been in contact through WeChat, and they have been in contact with each other intermittently.
Shen Yan glanced at the time, changed his clothes, and went to Li Qing's appointment.
Li Qing finally realized with hindsight that he should gossip about things he didn't know about, and made an appointment to have dinner today.
Coinciding with Saturday, various restaurants lined up in a large circle.
Shen Yan touched his pocket and said with a smile, "Take you to eat something delicious."
They have been wandering around for a long time, and they will have to queue for a long time if they go further. Shen Yan is already hungry and doesn't want to wait any longer.
Sitting in the co-pilot, Shen Yan reported an address, Li Qing just stepped on the accelerator, and immediately stepped on the brakes.
Shen Yan was just wearing his seat belt and leaned forward out of inertia, "What are you doing?"
Li Qing said, "You're all right, that shop can't eat even if you have money."
Shen Yan hadn't spoken yet, but Li Qing seemed to have figured out something, and suddenly said: "You finally failed to hold the bottom line, have you been taken care of by your creditor?"
This is not wrong in a certain way, Shen Yan raised his eyebrows, "Do you know that you still don't drive?"
Li Qing hesitated and stepped on the accelerator.
This hotel is very inconspicuous, the facade looks small, but the inside is unique. The number of people entertained here is limited every day. Shen Yan has been here with Qin Xuan several times, knowing that it is Xiao Yuqing's shop, so he can come at any time.
The lady at the front desk recognized Shen Yan and said with a smile, "Good evening, Mr. Shen, are you still in your old position?"
The old location was the private room that Xiao Yuqing left to Qin Xuan.
Shen Yan nodded, "Yes."
A waiter led them over, and when they were seated, Li Qing couldn't hold back, and said, "Have you and your financial master ever been here?"
Seeing his face, Shen Yan couldn't help but want to laugh: "Of course I've been here. This is his exclusive location. He said that I can bring friends at any time, otherwise I won't be able to come in."
Li Qing was silent for a moment, then asked, "I won't be ripped off by him, right? The possessiveness of some gold owners is simply perverted. What if you and I are having a meal and are tortured and asked if you gave him a cuckold?"
Shen Yan glanced at him in surprise, and said sincerely, "Don't read novels."
Li Qing: "…"
The difficult task of ordering food was completed by Li Qing, and Shen Yan took a leisurely sip of tea.
It's so good, every time I come with Qin Xuan, the two look at each other for a long time, and finally let the chef make his own decision.
Without waiting for Li Qing to ask, Shen Yan took the initiative to speak, picking and choosing some past events to tell him.
Only then did Li Qing know that their relationship was not what he imagined.
"You owe him two sums of money back and forth, plus your kindness to you. You sell yourself to him to repay the debt, and he loses a lot."
"I paid back the first money." Strictly speaking, it was Qin Xuan's relationship to be able to pay off the first money.
Shen Yan shook the water glass, his thoughts wandering a little. When he was in country A, one day Qin Xuan gave him an envelope with a note and a password in it.
That was Lin Jiandong's reward for selling their family.
He didn't know how Qin Xuan got the money, so he kept it without asking much.
Not long after they broke up, Shen Yan didn't take anything from Qin Xuan, only brought this card back to China.
Excluding the debt repayment, there are still tens of thousands of dollars left, just enough to live in Haining for a while.
After Shen Yan remitted the money to Qin Xuan, his heart was empty.
Who knew it would be like this again a few years later.
Shen Yan sighed and smiled: "Actually, he is really at a loss. I guess it is the most losing business in his life."
…
Shen Yan didn't sleep well that night. He was a little breathless when he woke up, and just opened his mouth, a soft object slipped into his mouth, hooking his tongue as if playing.
Shen Yan suddenly woke up.
Qin Xuan pressed on him, and had already taken off most of his clothes. Hearing the change in his breathing rhythm, he knew that he had woken up.
After kissing for a while, Qin Xuan pinched his face and said, "Your vigilance is too poor."
Shen Yan was so hardened by the provocation that he bent his eyes, and his voice was still hoarse when he woke up: "You are a... um, grass picker, your level is too low, do you still have to chat with others when you climb on their bed?"
Qin Xuan stroked his smooth back, his hand went all the way down his spine, and probed into the quiet ground, "As the one who was picked, why don't you resist?"
His fingers stirred restlessly in his body, and Shen Yan softened his waist. He smiled and said, "My husband was hungry and thirsty when he was on a business trip for a long time, and he couldn't wait to put the green sky above his head."
Qin Xuan took a breath and said in a low voice, "Husband?"
Shen Yan didn't answer him and kissed him directly.
Since that day, the two have no physical contact, and this time they both seem a little anxious.
Shen Yan knew the taste of the marrow, and was tossed and turned over and over again without saying anything.
Towards the end, the sheets were soaked wet, Shen Yan crouched on top of him, lifted his waist weakly and sat down, "The last time, come by yourself."
The sky was already shimmering, Shen Yan took a shower, changed his clothes, and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in a trance.
Qin Xuan took a shower and came out, "Don't sleep?"
Shen Yan was very tired, but his spirits were very excited. He glanced at him sideways with a smile, "If you do it, go to sleep. If I don't see you the next day, I will think that I have a vivid spring dream."
Qin Xuan walked up to him and stood still. There were only scattered lights outside the window. A smile hung on Shen Yan's lips. He knew him well enough to know that Shen Yan smiled sincerely and was really happy for him to come back.
"I am back."
"Well, welcome back."
They both slept until the afternoon and woke up.
Qin Xuan has been so busy lately that his feet can't touch the ground. He can't sleep for a long time in a day. He dragged his tired body back and rolled the sheets for several hours. He couldn't stand the iron. Very heavy.
Shen Yan got up earlier than him, packed himself and his home, and sat on the balcony listening to the drama.
He has been particularly fond of listening to dramas recently, listening to all kinds of things. The old man downstairs doesn't seem to have changed his hobby of crying and howling on the balcony, and he can often listen to a duet.
Shen Yan was in it, but Qin Xuan didn't appreciate it very much. After he slept almost, his sleep was very light, and he was awakened by the sound of babbling. He rubbed his swollen temples, lifted the quilt and got out of bed. Looking resentfully at the person who was swaying leisurely in the rocking chair.
Realizing something, the movement of his fingers tapping the beat paused, Shen Yan tilted his head and looked at the other party's face, and knew that he was definitely awakened.
Qin Xuan came out after washing up, the grandpa's concert came to an end, Shen Yan turned off the opera and motioned him to sit casually.
There was a stack of biscuits and a teapot on the small table. The water in the teapot was still warm. Shen Yan poured him a cup and moved the biscuits over.
Qin Xuan looked at him and asked, "Are you satisfied with yesterday?"
Shen Yan didn't know what he meant, "How about giving a five-star rating for satisfaction?"
Qin Xuan: "I want to apply for regularization."
