face-blind spring

Ye Lin stared at Cheng Feng's reply for a while: "Is there no electronic version?"

Cheng Feng replied: "I deleted the electronic version."

You are so heartless.Although I'm not much better, I almost deleted you directly.

Ye Lin still wanted that group photo: "When will I see you?"

Cheng Feng: "Tonight."

"Yes." Ye Lin replied, "But don't come to my house, just find a place nearby." Ex-boyfriends are not suitable for entering the house.

Cheng Feng replied: "Alright."

About half an hour later, Cheng Feng sent him a message, I'm almost there, you can go out now, see you at the gate of the small park.

Ye Lin knew which small park he was talking about, it was a place where they used to take a walk.After hesitating for a while, he still changed into his pajamas and went out dressed like a man.

When he arrived at the entrance of the small park, he recognized Cheng Feng from a distance. He should have taken a bath, and now he has smooth hair and looks very gentle and harmless.Cheng Feng waved to him, and Ye Lin nodded to him.

When the two met, it seemed that it was not appropriate to exchange pleasantries, so Ye Lin asked straight to the point: "Did you bring the photo?"

"Bring it," Cheng Feng said, "Let's find a place with lights, and I'll give it to you."

It’s just a photo, and I need some lighting, but Ye Lin didn’t point it out, but said: “Okay.”

Cheng Feng looked back at the park and explained, "I wanted to go with you to find a street light in the park, but I didn't expect it to be closed so early."

"It seems to close at eight o'clock." Ye Lin added.

Cheng Feng glanced at the phone, feeling a little regretful: "That's really unfortunate, it's only a few minutes late."

No, it's an hour.But Ye Lin still didn't point this out, but asked along the way: "Where are we going?"

Cheng Feng thought for a while and said, "Let's go to the riverside. I remember there is a row of street lights there and the reflection of the river surface, which is brighter."

There is indeed a row of beautiful street lamps by the river, which can barely be regarded as a cityscape, and they have also been there for a walk before.But it takes at least 15 minutes to walk from here to the river, even if it is a race walk. Is it really necessary to go so far?

Ye Lin wanted to refuse, but he heard himself say to Cheng Feng, "Okay."

So the two walked towards the riverside one after the other, with Cheng Feng in front and Ye Lin behind.No one spoke along the way, only the footsteps of both sides and the whistling wind.The wind was quite strong that day, and the hair of the two of them flew wildly, making them very embarrassed.

Ye Lin didn't know why he agreed to Cheng Feng's proposal, and he didn't know what he was going to do when he went to the riverside so late, got the photos, said goodbye to each other, and walked back?That is to eat enough to do nothing.In fact, he hasn't had dinner yet, and is preparing to cook instant noodles before going out.

After walking for more than 20 minutes, the two finally came to the avenue by the river. Many aunts and uncles were wearing sneakers, walking or jogging along the railing by the river. There were also many children and dogs on the road, laughing and playing. .The riverside is always lively.

Cheng Feng took Ye Lin to walk a little further, and came to a less crowded road, then stopped and found a bench to sit down.Ye Lin followed and sat down, deliberately keeping a distance from Cheng Feng.Cheng Feng sat at the far left end of the chair, and he sat at the far right end of the chair.

Cheng Feng moved to the middle, and handed over a yellow envelope: "Here's the photo, you can check and accept it."

Ye Lin took the envelope and felt that they looked like two cautious underground intelligence officers.Under the light, he caught a glimpse of a line of small characters written on the envelope, as well as a password. After a closer look, he found that the date was written with a pen, which happened to be today.But as always, he pretended not to see it, but turned the envelope over and took out the photo.

Under the street lamp, in the photo, he and Cheng Feng were smiling like fools, Ye Lin somewhat missed those days.

Melancholy, he stuffed the photo back into the yellow envelope.He found out that he hadn't let go of Cheng Feng, or in other words, he had never let go.Perhaps he should say something salutary, or just exchange a few casual greetings, but he never spoke, just sat so quietly.

Cheng Feng did the same, without saying a word or moving.

Ye Lin stared straight ahead, looking at the sparkling river in the distance, with no end in sight.He didn't dare to look at Cheng Feng, so he didn't know what Cheng Feng was doing, whether he was also pretending to admire the scenery, or if he had turned his head and glanced at him.

After an unknown amount of time, Ye Lin's stomach let out a loud noise.

Cheng Feng followed suit: "Have you not eaten yet?"

"Well, I haven't eaten yet, so I will..." I went back first.

"Let's go together," Cheng Feng interrupted him, "I didn't have dinner either."

Ye Lin didn't respond positively, but stood up following Cheng Feng, and walked towards the road near the restaurant.During the period, Cheng Feng asked: "Which place should we go for dinner? To the German restaurant you mentioned, or to a nearby shopping mall to find something to eat?"

Ye Lin wanted to eat hamburgers from a German restaurant. He had always heard that the beef here was very tender and the cheese was very strong. He wanted to go with Cheng Feng for a long time, but they broke up before they could go there.

But Ye Lin felt that this could not go on like this: "Forget it, I'd better go back and eat instant noodles."

Unexpectedly, Cheng Feng said: "Coincidentally, I also want to eat instant noodles."

Ye Lin turned his head away and stared at Cheng Feng.Cheng Feng nodded to him: "Go, eat instant noodles."

But where to eat instant noodles at night?The two walked along the road for 5 minutes and found a 24-hour convenience store.

Each of them chose a bucket of instant noodles, asked the clerk for boiling water, sat on the plastic table and chair outside the store, and waited for the noodles to boil.

Outside, the wind was blowing loudly, and the paper covers of the instant noodles kept slapping their faces. There was no one more embarrassed than them on the entire road.

Seeing Cheng Feng curling up his collar and drinking the noodle soup with his body curled up, Ye Lin inadvertently recalled the picture he had imagined when he first met him.At that time, he was always worried that if he lost his job and couldn't support Cheng Feng, he would be impoverished with him, eat and sleep in the open, but he didn't expect it to happen now.

If Cheng Feng is really a poor man, that would be fine, Ye Lin thought to himself, in fact, eating instant noodles with him like this is quite happy.

But I shouldn't think so, it's not fair to him, he's born into a rich family.

"Want a drink?" Cheng Feng asked.

"Yes." Ye Lin replied.

Cheng Feng immediately stood up, walked into the convenience store, and when he came out, he was holding two bottles of lemon-flavored soda water in his hand, one for Ye Lin and one for himself.

Ye Lin took it and said thank you, perhaps this is the most polite sentence he has said to Cheng Feng since they broke up.

Cheng Feng smiled, the smile was so gentle and defenseless: "You can just ask me next time."

Ye Lin's heart moved slightly, and he replied without thinking, "Yes."

When he saw Cheng Feng's eyes lit up, with the kind of luster he was familiar with: "When?"

"talk later."

After eating the instant noodles, the two watched the dining table and threw the rubbish into the trash can.

Ye Lin said goodbye to Cheng Feng, Cheng Feng hummed and replied, see you next time.

On the way home, Ye Lin's pace quickened unconsciously, and his heart beat faster.When he realized it, he raised his head and saw that the sky was a pure dark blue with a bright moon hanging in it, which made him admire in his heart: how beautiful it is.

Two nights later, Ye Lin received a message from Cheng Feng: "When will you invite me to dinner?"

Ye Lin felt that a person should do what he says and do it immediately, so he replied: "Let's just say today. How about the German Hamburg we talked about last time?"

Half an hour later, the two met at the hamburger restaurant and ordered the two most famous set meals in the store, one was a fire-grilled double-layer beef burger set, and the other was a teriyaki pineapple beef burger set.Each burger is very large, and the clerk thoughtfully cut each burger in half for them, and inserted a long toothpick into each half to prevent the burger from falling apart.

Ye Lin didn't know what to say, so he asked, "Is your burger delicious?"

Cheng Feng said, "It's delicious, would you like to try it?"

So they each exchanged half of the hamburger and tasted two flavors at once.

This time they chatted a little more, and exchanged comments on the taste and decoration of this burger restaurant.The business of this store is very good, and there are many customers at night, some are students, some are white-collar workers, and some are old people.They also discussed some social phenomena based on the age group of customers they saw.

In fact, Ye Lin wanted to ask Cheng Feng what he was up to recently, but if he didn't talk about this kind of topic at the beginning, it would be difficult to insert it later, so they talked about social topics without stopping, until the last French fries were also wiped out.The two stood up with some unfinished business, and walked out of the shop.

Cheng Feng said, "I'll see you off."

Ye Lin said, "No need."

But Cheng Feng still sent him to the gate of the community, and said goodbye to him: "Today is late, see you next time."

Ye Lin didn't know what reason they could have to see each other again, he wanted to turn around and hug him, perhaps as the last meeting and hug, but he never did so, breaking up should be decisive.

But when Cheng Feng invited Ye Lin out on the second night because he ate too much the previous day and needed to go for a walk, Ye Lin went to the appointment with no promise.

The two of them wandered aimlessly along the road, and Cheng Feng asked what Ye Lin had always wanted to ask: "How are you doing?"

"It's okay." Ye Lin said briefly, when he spoke, he wanted to cry for a moment.But he held back, and instead filled the gaps in his mind with journal-style work records, and when he finished speaking, he returned the question to Cheng Feng: "What about you, how are you?"

Cheng Feng said: "Not too good, I miss you every day."

Ye Lin blinked vigorously, and couldn't hold back for a while: "Actually, I do too."

Cheng Feng hugged him almost immediately, which was longer and stronger than the last hug between the two of them.

This time it was Ye Lin who pushed him away: "Let's... let's go get something to drink."

In a bar nearby, a singer was singing sad love songs in her husky voice.They sat under the stage, drank beer slowly, and were relatively silent for a while.An atmosphere of incomparable sadness enveloped them.

Maybe it was because the singing was too sad, maybe the alcohol had played a role, or maybe it was the moonlight that was so beautiful that day, and when the two of them realized it, they had already collapsed drunk together in a hotel room.

Cheng Feng pressed on his body, with red eyes, and said to him in a hoarse voice: "I don't want the inheritance right of the company, I don't want the family money, I just want you, Linlin. I told my parents , In fact, I didn't want to be a president or inherit any family property, no matter what they think, say, or do, I will be with you."

Ye Lin reached out and touched his head: "Don't cry, Lao Cheng."

"Well, I don't cry..." Cheng Feng looked at him emotionally, "Can I come in, Linlin?"

"Come in... hiss..."

The next morning, Ye Lin woke up, turned around and saw Cheng Feng's handsome sleeping face, and thought he was in a dream.

As soon as he moved, Cheng Feng woke up. Cheng Feng opened his eyes, sat up, and his face was full of joy: "Linlin, look at our current relationship...what do you think?"

Ye Lin was extremely troubled and suffering. On the one hand, he still loved Cheng Feng irresistibly, on the other hand, he didn't want to shame his parents.Finally he said cautiously: "I think we are a secret lover, in other words, you are my concubine."

Cheng Feng was extremely surprised: "My mistress?"

Ye Lin nodded: "Yes, it's the concubine."
