On the day Pei Chongyuan came back from a business trip, Jiang Xi had an exam in the afternoon.

He went straight from the airport to the conservatory without changing his clothes, without eating, or even buying a cup of coffee.

I can't say what it feels like, but it's urgent.

It's snowing again, and it's not light.

As soon as Pei Chongyuan and the others got off the highway, they received a notice that the highway was blocked due to heavy snow. He was very fortunate. If it was later, he didn't know how long he would have to wait before returning to the city.

It was past four o'clock when Jiang Xi finished the exam, and it was already dark. He and Tong Ye walked out of the exam room, discussing where to eat.

As soon as the phone was turned on, I received a text message. When I clicked on it, it was from Pei Chongyuan.

"Tong Ye." Jiang Xi called Tong Ye who was half a step ahead of him, "I have something to do, so I won't have dinner with you tonight."

"what?"

Jiang Xi stuffed his schoolbag to Tong Ye: "Help me take it back to the dormitory, I'm leaving first."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Xiyou ran away from the crowd like a fish, leaving Tong Ye standing there by himself and muttering: "What's the situation?"

Jiang Xi rushed out of the teaching building, and the flying snowflakes mercilessly drilled into his collar.

Not only on the collar, but also on the hair, on the tip of the nose, and even in the eyes looking forward.

The snowflakes were very cold, which made Jiang Xi, who had been sweltering in the classroom, instantly refreshed.

He ran towards the school gate and told himself that when he got out of the school gate, turn right and he would see Pei Chongyuan in 3 minutes.

Pei Chongyuan arrived early, instead of going to school to wait for Jiang Xi, he was in a coffee shop outside.

I ordered a cup of coffee, and after Jiang Xi replied to him, I ordered a cup of warm honey grapefruit tea for Jiang Xi.

He sat leisurely by the window on the second floor of the coffee shop, looking at the snow floating wantonly outside. Snow is like water and fire. It doesn't know how to show mercy to people. The heavy snow blocked the highway, and the traffic in the city was also congested because of it. Unbearable, beautiful is beautiful, and her heart is really cruel.

There has been a lot of snow this winter, and it has fallen heavily every time, and the average temperature is several degrees lower than it is every year.

In this extremely cold winter, it is good to have someone like Jiang Xi to warm my heart.

Jiang Xi came, covered in wind and snow and full of expectations, and went upstairs in three steps at a time, making no secret of his miss for Pei Chongyuan.

As soon as Pei Chongyuan put down his coffee cup, he heard footsteps near the stairs. He turned his head and looked over. The two looked at each other and smiled.

He beckoned Jiang Xi to come over, Jiang Xi stood there to catch his breath, tried his best to put away the haste just now, walked steadily step by step and sat down opposite Pei Chongyuan.

"Is it cold outside?" Pei Chongyuan pushed the cup of warm honey citron tea to Jiang Xi's hand, "Take a break and keep warm."

"Why did you come back early?" When the two of them called on the phone the night before, Pei Chongyuan also said that it was tomorrow's flight. When he got on the plane, Jiang Xi had just finished the exam, so he was planning to pick him up.

Unexpectedly, the man came back early and did not give him a chance to make a trip.

"Of course I have to come back early as the work is done ahead of time." Pei Chongyuan said, "the company still has a lot of things waiting for me."

Jiang Xi was holding the cup with his lips resting on the rim, but his movements suddenly froze.

He originally thought that Pei Chongyuan was going to say that he came back early because of him, but soon he understood and accepted Pei Chongyuan's statement.

"Besides that," Pei Chongyuan sipped his coffee with a smile, and said to him, "Isn't there still you here? If I don't come back, you might fail."

Jiang Xi smiled.

"No." He said stiffly, "You are not that important."

"Really? Who sent me a message in the middle of the night the day before yesterday, saying that he missed me?"

Jiang Xi's ears turned red, and his expression didn't change at all. He lowered his eyes and drank the cup of honey grapefruit tea that Pei Chongyuan ordered for him.

It's too sweet, but he rarely likes it.

"One more week to finish the exam?"

"Yeah." Jiang Xi was a little absent-minded, "Actually, there are only three subjects left."

University exams are like this, the battle line is stretched, and sometimes there can be several days of gaps between the two subjects, which makes people anxious.

"Go back to the dormitory tonight?"

Pei Chongyuan's question was deliberately making trouble for Jiang.

Jiang Xi looked up at him and said angrily, "Yes."

They said that they were going back to the dormitory, but after eating, the two went straight to Pei Chongyuan's house. It was not until eight o'clock, and the two had already kissed from the door to the bed in the bedroom.

Jiang Xi said, "What do you do on business trips?"

A student still doesn't know much, especially Jiang Xi, whose eyes never took a second look at other planets before.

But now he is curious about Pei Chongyuan's planet, not only when they were together, but also what the other party is busy with in the world he can't see.

"Meetings, entertainment, miss you." Pei Chongyuan lifted the metal button on the waist of Jiang Xi's jeans, "I mainly miss you."

When Pei Chongyuan came back, Jiang Xi's always hanging heart fell to the ground.

He actually didn't know what he was worried about, but as long as he thought that the other party was not in the same city as him, even if it was only an hour's flight away, he felt that it was the sky.

That night, they messed around with Pei Chongyuan all night, and then they sat on the bed wrapped in a blanket and smoked, watching the moonlight outside the window.

Quiet and at ease, Jiang Xi felt that there would be no better time than that.

In the following week, Pei Chongyuan continued to be busy with work, and Jiang Xi also continued to spend time in the library reviewing with Tong Ye.

Sometimes when they were tired, they would go to the public area outside to chat a few words. Sometimes Tong Ye envied those couples who were reviewing together. Seeing how sweet they were, he couldn't help but sing "Single Love Song" to himself.

Tong Ye asked Jiang Xi: "Brother Xi, are you envious?"

"I'm not envious." The two lay on the iron railing on the second floor of the library, watching the people coming and going below.

Jiang Xi is really not envious, because he has Pei Chongyuan.

For the past few days, Jiang Xi has been thinking that maybe he should find an opportunity to tell Tong Ye about this, but he can't find the right time to speak.

Jiang Xi felt very sorry for hiding something from his good friend.

"Have you ever liked anyone?" Jiang Xi asked Tong Ye.

Tong Ye smiled and said, "Slash."

Slash is the guitarist of Guns N' Roses and Tong Ye's idol.

Jiang Xi smiled helplessly: "Fuck."

The final subject of the grueling final exam was over, and Jiang Xi followed Tong Ye and the others to dinner to celebrate.

Everyone staggered from drinking, Jiang Xi had a good drinker, packed these people into a taxi one by one, and sent them back to the dormitory.

After dealing with these people, it was past ten o'clock in the evening, and it seemed that the door of the building was about to be locked again.

He called Pei Chongyuan to ask if he could meet him tonight.

Unexpectedly, the phone was answered by someone else, a man who sounded quite young.

"Hello, Mr. Pei went to the bathroom." The other party said, "When he comes back, can I call you back?"

The sound is very nice, it is the feeling of clean wind passing through the bamboo forest, and the attitude is very polite and polite, which makes people feel comfortable.

But the premise is that Jiang Xi is just an ordinary friend of Pei Chongyuan.

Standing in Jiang Xi's position, a young man answered Pei Chongyuan's call, he couldn't help but think about it.

Although Jiang Xi had never asked about Pei Chongyuan's past experience for so long, it did not mean that he had completely let down his vigilance.

How can it be so easy for people who are used to attracting bees and attracting butterflies?

Jiang Xi said, "No, I'll contact him another day."

He hung up the phone and stood by the window in the corridor of the dormitory, smoking with the window open.

It snowed heavily a few days ago, and the temperature has plummeted recently.

Twenty degrees below zero, Jiang Xi was blowing a cold wind, and his finger holding the cigarette was red from the cold.

After a while, Pei Chongyuan called.

"Did you call me just now?"

"Well, someone else picked it up."

Pei Chongyuan smiled: "The last time I went to talk about cooperation, they sent someone over to update the data, and we have a meal together."

"it is good."

"Have you finished the exam today?" Pei Chongyuan said, "I'll pick you up tomorrow?"

"Wait until you finish your work." Jiang Xi said, "I'm going to sleep, and you should go back early."

Before Pei Chongyuan could say more, Jiang Xi hung up the phone.

Pei Chongyuan, who was hung up on the phone, was a little helpless. When he put down the phone, Xiang Ran, who was sitting next to him, said in embarrassment: "Boss Pei, I'm really sorry, I'm just used to it."

Xiang Ran just graduated from university last year, so he came directly to his uncle's company and worked as an assistant for him.

In order to avoid missing calls, Mr. Xiang told Xiang Ran to pick up the phone for him every time he left his body, and made a record, and he would reply one by one afterwards.

When Pei Chongyuan went to the bathroom just now, he didn't bring his mobile phone. His mobile phone was placed next to the tableware. When it rang, Xiang Ran picked it up habitually.

The moment he picked it up, Xiang Ran suddenly realized that he had made a mistake, but he picked up all the calls and couldn't hang up directly.

However, when Pei Chongyuan came back and found out about it, although he didn't blame him, his expression was a little uneasy, which made Xiang Ran very embarrassed.

"It's okay." Pei Chongyuan smiled, "It's just a phone call."

Xiang Ran frowned at him, flustered.

He found that he was quite afraid of Boss Pei, who was only five years older than him, but the strong sense of oppression on the other side made him sit here a little out of breath.

His uncle said that Boss Pei is easy to get along with, as long as he "does what he likes", everything is easy to discuss.

Their company has not been profitable in the past two years, so they are counting on this cooperation.

Xiang Ran shouldn't have come here, it's not his job, but Mr. Xiang asked him to come by name, and said his way to Mr. Pei.

Xiang Ran didn't know what Mr. Pei's approach was, but he didn't dare to ask more, so he could only bite the bullet.

Bite the bullet, and then bite the bullet and contact this President Pei.

Didn't he say his way to Mr. Pei?

Why do you think this person seems to bother you?

"Tomorrow, I may not go to the company until the afternoon," Pei Chongyuan said. "On your side, contact the project leader first. If you have any questions, we will have a meeting to discuss after I go in the afternoon."

"Okay, okay." Xiang Ran quickly agreed, "You are busy with your work, I have no problem here."

He looked at the man sitting next to him with a guilty conscience, who had been typing since he hung up the phone, maybe texting.

Xiang Ran was anxious, and the project manager who had dinner with them poured him wine and said with a smile: "Manager Xiang, this trip has really worked hard for you."
