    In the next few days, Zhao Jizhe was very quiet for a while, and he didn't make phone calls every now and then to say irrelevant things, or send text messages regardless of the time and place.

    The company's affairs were complicated, and it was difficult for Li Xuanshi to devote more energy to it. There were also bigger worries in the few free hours, which would not be allocated to Zhao Jizhe.

    Hearing news about him again was Zhu Zhou's call, saying that Zhao Jizhe had recently become more enthusiastic about Internet cafe affairs, and started to ask him for advice if he didn't know it.

    "I feel that Brother Zhao still wants to manage the store well. Maybe he just took over some time ago and was not used to it." Zhu Zhou said optimistically.

    "I hope." After listening to him, Li Xuan's words were not very enthusiastic. "In the future, you don't need to talk about these things with me. If he is willing to take care of it, you can do it well. If he doesn't care, you should also do your own thing."

    "Oh... OK."

    Li Xuan hummed: "How about the matter I asked you last time?"

    "Yes, that's what I was going to talk about." Zhu Zhou said hastily, "I almost forgot just now, Brother Xuan, you asked me to find that store, and I found it."

    The paper of the book I picked up from the bookshelf was a bit thin, and the ink was smeared on the white paper. If you look closely, it looks like dark clouds looming in the sky when a rainstorm comes in midsummer.

    Li Xuan stared at the address and number he had written down for a while, then looked away, his fingers landed on the touch screen and paused for a few seconds, then clicked on the video of Sheng Min's birthday party on the first day.

    There was no live broadcast of the birthday party, only the video made by the fans in the field. The quality is quite clear, but the camera shakes, making people dizzy.

    Even so, Li Xuan watched all the videos he could find last night.Twelve o'clock passed without paying attention, and the comments and blessings on the birthday microblog automatically pushed by the system quickly exceeded one million, and Sheng Min's name has been listed on the hot search list until now.

    "You haven't left yet?" Qi Boyuan opened the door and came in, stunned for a moment.

    Li Xuan quickly turned off the computer screen: "Looking for me?"

    "I'm not looking for you. I'm here to get the contract with the property management company. I left it with you yesterday." Qi Boyuan rummaged through his desk for a while, and quickly found a folder. "What did you just look at? Why are you still in the company?"?”

    Li Xuan regained his composure, reopened the screen and quickly narrowed the window: "Where should I go if I'm not in the company?"

    "Isn't your drama ticket for tonight?" Qi Boyuan glanced at his watch strangely, "It's less than two hours away, isn't it quite far from here?"

    Li Xuan scratched his chin: "Oh."

    "What are you?" Qi Boyuan looked at him for a few seconds, laughed, and sat on the table with his hands up, "If you want to go, why don't you give me the ticket."

    "Go down." Li Xuan frowned, "You just said last time that you have no artistic talent, so you are not guilty of this."

    Qi Boyuan smiled and raised his hands in a gesture of surrender: "I can withdraw it. I heard from Jiajia that your two tickets are very valuable, and you can buy half a square meter in the city center together. It's okay to suffer this kind of foreign crime."Well."

    Li Xuan turned the signature pen in his hand and did not speak.

    "No kidding, you go." Qi Boyuan lifted his chin and said again.

    Li Xuan lowered his eyes and said in a low voice: "I don't know anything, so you persuade me to go."

    "Where I don't know anything, it's not that you don't say anything?...Hey, don't say anything, I'm not interested."

    Li Xuan glanced at him, Qi Boyuan laughed, and jumped off the table: "Okay, let's go. Anyway, it's only a few hours, I'm watching, are you afraid that the company will be turned upside down?"

    "What good will it do you to persuade me to go?" Li Xuan frowned.

    "Obviously not." Qi Boyuan said seriously, "But I think you should want to go."

    It's true and it's not.

    Li Xuanwei really couldn't say more words against his will, his face was hard to distinguish, as if he was competing with someone.In fact, there could be anyone but himself.Seeing his expression, Qi Boyuan couldn't say anything for a moment.

    While it was quiet, Li Xuan's phone rang again, and Qi Boyuan saw his screen with sharp eyes, which seemed to be a tweet that Weibo paid special attention to.This was really inconsistent with his usual style, and Qi Boyuan couldn't help but twitch his eyelids.However, Li Xuan took a look at the phone, stood up as if he had made up his mind, grabbed the car keys, and went out the door.

    Qi Boyuan saw him go out, but he didn't have time to react: "Are you gone again?"

    "There is something to send a message." Li Xuan left like a gust of wind.

    After getting in the car, he turned on his phone again. Sheng Min posted Weibo five minutes ago.A very simple line of words, a new year, thank you everyone.The accompanying picture is a selfie. He is holding a palm-sized cake, tilting his head and smiling sweetly, which is also very official.

    The background was deliberately blurred, but Li Xuan still recognized the curtains in the bedroom at a glance.

    Sheng Min was alone at home on his birthday?This discovery made Li Xuan frowned involuntarily.He completely forgot that he wrote the program from morning to night as usual today, and even Qi Boyuan only knew that his birthday was in July, but he didn't know the exact date.

    Companionship and the so-called sense of ritual are the most insignificant things in Li Xuan's view, but it is unbearable for him to change the object to Sheng Min.

    Li Xuancai realized his impulsiveness all the way to the downstairs of Sheng Min at the highest speed.Whether the photo was taken now or not is irrelevant. Even if Sheng Min is at home, he is not necessarily alone. There are so many staff around him.There is always someone by his side if he needs it.

    But Li Xuan remembered that dream again, Sheng Min was lying lifeless in the bathtub soaked in blood.

    Hustle and Sheng is at his fingertips, but he has never had a companion.

    Can I be that person myself?During the period of separation, Li Xuan had asked himself countless times, but up to now, he still had nothing.

    Leaning back on the seat, Li Xuan exhaled softly.The overhead light in the underground garage shines brightly on the floating dust in the air, and the gilt lettering on the envelope in the armrest box reflects faint light.

    He scratched his hair, the opposite elevator door opened and closed, a car passed in front of him, some people went out, and some people came back.Time passed slowly, and when the elevator sounded, two familiar figures suddenly appeared in front of them.

    Li Xuan frowned, sat up straight all of a sudden, looked at the person opposite, and frowned unconsciously.His Adam's apple moved, he controlled his emotions and didn't get out of the car, but quietly lowered the window.

    "Don't worry, mom will tell him to let go sooner or later. A house, what a big deal. Last time I bought a car, I didn't buy it for you." Wang Shuying's voice was loud, and her voice echoed in the empty garage.

    "What kind of car is that? What did he drive for himself, and what did he buy for me? To send a beggar?" Sheng Hui said, turning around and spitting in the direction of the elevator, "To make so much money, how can you give me money?"What's wrong with me?"

    "It's nothing, what can it do. It's a matter of course. Don't worry, Mom will find a way for you, ah."

    "Who wants you to think of a way?" Sheng Hui shook off her hand, "It's the same sentence every time. I won't come with you next time to see his face, what the hell."

    The mother and son quickly got into the car and drove away. Li Xuan felt sick, and Yang Xu's voice echoed in his ears again, "His mother is also sick, and she always makes a fuss every birthday."

    It turned out to be true.

    When the door rang, Sheng Min was still sitting on the wooden floor in a daze, with the legs of the sofa against his back, he was a little tired and didn't want to move.His shoulders trembled, like some kind of frightened animal, he turned his head vigilantly: "Who?"

    It was quiet.

    Sheng Min frowned and stood up, walked around the shattered birthday cake on the ground, walked to the entrance and stopped again.It's not like he didn't have the experience of being stalked by an illegitimate student in the past. For this reason, he moved several times, and he was always extra cautious.I asked again: "Who is it?"

    "Me." The person outside the door paused for a moment, "Li Xuan."
