Xi Feng was taken aback when he heard the words.

The colleague looked at his expression and said, "You really don't know? I remember they told you before."

Xi Feng looked blank, "I don't remember..." When he said that, he was vaguely impressed. It seemed that someone had talked to him about who was gay in the company, but he came to the company not long ago. Match each person's name with the name, and forget it once you have heard it. It is only now that this colleague has heard about it that he suddenly reacted. The person they were talking about at the time turned out to be He Yunsheng.

Thinking of this, Xi Feng's brows became tangled.

The colleague said softly: "You don't know? He kept hiding from you, didn't he have any thoughts about you? Didn't take advantage of you?"

Xi Feng's head rumbling like running a train was a little messy. In addition to surprise, there was also a little emotion that could probably be described as embarrassment. He didn't expect He Yunsheng to be gay, he just felt comfortable getting along with each other, but if two people got so close, probably everyone in the company would think he was also gay.

Xi Feng felt a little annoyed at this thought.

In front of his colleagues, he was embarrassed to show too much emotion, just said: "Nothing, we are ordinary friends." After speaking, he turned and left.

When he calmed down alone, Xi Feng felt more uncomfortable the more he thought about it.

Recalling carefully, He Yunsheng is sometimes too particular about this person, unlike a man. He knew that He Yunsheng had a habit of cleanliness, and everything had to be cleaned up. One time he accidentally got vegetable soup on his hands. At that time, Xi Feng handed him paper towels, but he must go to the bathroom to clean it.

At that time, Xi Feng felt that He Yunsheng was not crisp enough, not like a man should be.

Now that think about it, it's probably because He Yunsheng is a homosexual.

Xi Feng frowned. As long as he thought of how close he and He Yunsheng were, everyone in the company would see him. He didn't know what to say about him behind his back, and he felt angry. He couldn't help but blame He Yunsheng for not telling him at the beginning, but he knew it was unreasonable. He had never asked He Yunsheng if he liked women, and He Yunsheng had no reason to take the initiative to mention his sexuality to him.

He called He Yunsheng yesterday and made an appointment with him for dinner today, but now Xi Feng doesn't know if he should go.

Before lunch, He Yunsheng appeared in Xi Feng's office.

He brought Xi Feng some raisins sent by his friends from his hometown. The reason was that Xi Feng had eaten them last time and found it to taste good, so he took the initiative to ask him.

Xi Feng is an informal person. He thinks he and He Yunsheng are friends. Usually, you and I don't care much about money.

He Yunsheng also heard him mention it, and took the initiative to send him some points today.

He Yunsheng has also been here usually.

Colleagues in a large office with Xi Feng would secretly pay attention to him, but would not blatantly wait and see, Xi Feng himself had never noticed.

But today, he clearly felt the gazes of people around him, and even noticed that a young female colleague was whispering and laughing.

Xi Feng was a little angry at once, but it is hard to say whether it was because of He Yunsheng or because of the attitude of the colleagues around him.

He Yunsheng didn't talk much, and planned to leave after putting things down for him. It's just that he noticed that Xi Feng's face was a little stiff, and when he put the things down, Xi Feng's "thank you" sounded very awkward.

He didn't understand what was going on, and subconsciously wanted to ask, but noticed that someone around him was secretly watching him, and finally he didn't ask.

Unlike Xi Feng, He Yunsheng is very sensitive to other people's attitudes.

He has been very cautious in joining the company for many years, but he was finally known about his sexuality because he was stalked by the other party when he broke up with his ex-boyfriend three years ago. My colleague saw it.

After that, the whole company knew about it.

Since then, everyone's attitude towards him has been slightly different, and He Yunsheng knew it. Especially male colleagues, who avoided him for a while, as if talking to him would be infected with a virus called homosexuality.

He Yunsheng was still very low for a while, but after he figured it out, he went his own way and tried not to interact too closely with others.

Xi Feng is the one who has taken the initiative to approach him over the years.

At first, He Yunsheng wondered if Xi Feng was gay, but when Xi Feng mentioned his relationship problems, he realized that he was thinking too much. No matter how he looked at Xi Feng, he was a straight man.

He Yunsheng likes men, but he doesn't like it when he sees a man. He can also make friends normally and develop social relations normally. If his sexual orientation were not discovered by the company, he would be a mature and decent middle-aged man, not everyone. Homosexuality who has always been shunned.

Everyone has misunderstandings about homosexuality. He Yunsheng knows it, but can't do anything about it.

So for Xi Feng's active approach, he tried to accept it slowly after resisting it at the beginning. In a sense, he is an ordinary single middle-aged man, he needs to have friends, although most of the time he is listening to Xi Feng, but occasionally he can confide in Xi Feng a little bit of helplessness, of course, only at work. .

He Yunsheng left after giving the things to Xi Feng.

Sitting in his seat, Xi Feng looked at the careful bag of raisins sent by He Yunsheng, feeling mixed.

The colleague before came over again and said, "Director He is giving you something?"

Xi Feng looked up at the smile on his face, always feeling ridiculous. He held back his temper without losing his temper, put the things in the cabinet, and said, "It's nothing."

That afternoon, an e-mail was received in the company's public mailbox. The person in the office with Xi Feng clicked on it and found that it turned out to be a photo.

It was a female colleague. When she saw the photo, she covered her mouth and said in surprise, "Isn't this Xi Feng and Director He?"

Everyone in the big office raised their heads. Someone who was curious had already stood up and walked over to the female colleague in two steps. They leaned closer to watch. Come out from the hotel?"

Xi Feng stood up all of a sudden, walked straight behind the colleague, and even pushed away two people watching the excitement, staring at the pictures on the computer screen.

That photo is indeed him and He Yunsheng, with the hotel door in the background. He seems to be drunk, and He Yunsheng is supporting him. It looked like he was going to help him in. He could only find a back figure, but because He Yunsheng seemed to be talking to the hotel doorman at the time, he turned around and revealed the sides of the two of them.

When Xi Feng looked at this hotel, he immediately remembered that this was the time he was drunk and unconscious. He Yunsheng left him in the hotel for one night. It was already a few months ago. didn’t expect someone to do so. The photos were taken, and after so long, when the relationship between him and He Yunsheng became familiar, they suddenly sent them to the company mailbox for colleagues to see.

Everyone in an office was watching him. He opened his mouth and finally explained: "This is the time we went to dinner. I was drunk and you don't care about me. Director He sent me to the hotel for one night."

He knew that the more he explained, the more others would think he was covering up, but he couldn't say a word.

Despite this, a male colleague with a disgusting mouth said: "Are you drunk? Did he do anything to you?"

All the people around chuckled in depression.

Xi Feng's face turned green, and he turned and left with a cold snort.

A female colleague hit the man with her elbow and whispered to him to stop talking nonsense. The others saw that Xi Feng's face was unsightly, and then they dispersed.

But in just one afternoon, the picture spread throughout the company, and almost everyone knew about it.

He Yunsheng is naturally no exception.

He was on the cusp of the storm, and he was used to all kinds of gossip, and he could face it calmly, but when he saw the photos, he suddenly became worried about Xi Feng.

Xi Feng did not miss the appointment for that evening meal.

Sitting down in the small restaurant, He Yunsheng just wanted to ask Xi Feng if he knew about the photo, and he found that Xi Feng's face was a little gloomy.

After a slight start, he asked, "Did anyone see what the photo said?"

Xi Feng raised his head to look at He Yunsheng, and asked in a deep voice, "Do you like men?"

His tone sounded so unceremonious that He Yunsheng was stunned, and also replied somewhat displeased: "I like men, I think you should know that."

Xi Feng frowned. He said, "I don't know. If I knew, I would keep a distance from you."

At that moment, He Yunsheng felt like he was slapped in the face, and a burst of anger suddenly surged up, but his restraint prevented him from propagating this anger, but his expression became serious, "You What's the meaning?"

Xi Feng was very upset. He said, "You like men. Shouldn't we keep our distance? I don't know this. You always know it, right?"

He was still angry about the photo, and angry for the eyes of his colleagues in the company. When reporting to the department head this afternoon, Xi Feng was teased by the other party. At that time, he blushed, but he had to hold back his anger and he was frustrated to the extreme.

So now, he almost inevitably vented his emotions to He Yunsheng. If He Yunsheng explained his sexuality to him earlier, then he would keep a certain distance from He Yunsheng anyway.

He Yunsheng’s back was straight, and the noise in the small restaurant became distant. He took a deep breath to calm himself and asked: “Because I like men, I should talk to all men. Keep your distance, right?"

Xi Feng said, "Isn't it? If I were a woman and had dinner with me after get off work every day, what would you say others would think? Wouldn't it be a misunderstanding?"

He Yunsheng looked at him, and finally said coldly: "I misunderstood you, right!"

After speaking, he stood up and said to Xi Feng before leaving, "I won't harass you again."
