C16 Two Shameless Thieves

Arriving at the company, as usual, he turned on his computer to look at the social news, then went to his friends' Weibo to try and find some funny jokes to make himself happy.

He accidentally discovered that Yem Yan had posted a Weibo post two days ago. The main content of the Weibo post was the photos of her and Faang Yuan's marriage. This Weibo post had a lot of people on it, but there was no one on it. Of course, I know that she was afraid that Faang Yuan and her success would make me think of the bleak ending between me and Jian Wei. Actually, she doesn't need to do that. She can give me a painful blessing.

Their wedding photos had many theme. One of them was named "Silent Happiness." In this group of photos, Faang Yuan and Yem Yan held hands but were expressionless. It looks very quiet, but the background of the photo is a smiling sunflower. He pointed out "Silent Happiness."

It was a very good theme, but it didn't belong to them. This theme was more than three years ago when Jian Wei asked me how to take my wedding photos with her in advance. I brought it up in a flash... I feel that the joy in silence is the most able to withstand the calculations of time and the erosion of time, to maintain it forever.

I sighed softly, but my heart ached because of the merciless passage of time. After being silent for a long time, I smiled and left a message on Yem Yan's Weibo. "Two shameless thieves, I wish you two eternal happiness!"

I lit up a cigarette and took a deep breath with all my might. After a long exhale, the smoke that filled the air was instantly blown away by the wind. Thus, I saw a scene full of cracks. In the picture, Jian Wei was still lying in my arms as if she had loved me three years ago. Praise the topic of "silent joy" that I proposed. We happily decided that one day, when we get married... We would definitely use this topic to take a group of wedding photos.

But in the end, we were no longer able to use this theme, so we were plagiarized by Faang Yuan and Yem Yan, two broken-hearted friends who had no creativity. Hehe, I am not sad about this at all, I am really not sad... I will only think about how we were looking forward to getting married that evening, and how happy we were because of our longing for marriage.

...

At noon, Faang Yuan and I were having lunch at the company's restaurant. From this afternoon onwards, Faang Yuan will take two weeks off from his wedding. There are some jobs that he needs to pass to me for the time being.

After spending ten minutes chatting with Faang Yuan about work, we talked about the wedding between him and Yem Yan.

I asked Faang Yuan, "Has Yem Yan found her bridesmaid?"

Faang Yuan nodded and said, "Yem Yan originally planned to find a female colleague in their company as a bridesmaid. Didn't Jian Wei come back? She must have found Jian Wei."

I didn't react in time. I was stunned for a long time before I asked Faang Yuan, "Your groomsman is me, right?"

"What? Do you want to run away at the last minute?" Faang Yuan's face darkened as he asked.

"What are you two thinking? Don't you and Yem Yan consider how awkward Jian Wei and I will be if we arrange it like this?"

Faang Yuan only reacted after a moment and said, "Yes, Yem Yan and I really did not think of this point. It is quite awkward to arrange it like this."

"It's good that you know. Moreover, Jian Wei and I have already broken up. It's inauspicious to let us be your best men and bridesmaids!" I added.

"Now that you mention it, I feel a little scared!" After a pause, she asked again, "Then who will withdraw from between you and Jian Wei?"

"You have taken your wedding leave, and the work matters are all on my shoulders. I don't have that much time to be the best man, so I will withdraw." I thought about it and said.

"Alright then, there's really no way to get the best of both worlds." Faang Yuan said with some regret in his voice.

Of course, I also feel regret. But according to the customs of marriage, it is inauspicious for a married couple to let a man and woman who have already broken up be best men and bridesmaids.

After a moment of silence, I asked Faang Yuan, "Have you thought of the other candidates for the best man?"

Faang Yuan made an expression that made me feel at ease and said, "Don't think about it. It's ready. Just find Xiang Chen."

Not to mention, Xiang Chen being Faang Yuan's best man was a very suitable candidate. When we were in college, the three of us had the best relationship when we were in the same class. However, Xiang Chen was from Nanjing. After graduation, he went back to Nanjing and didn't stay with us in Suzhou. However, the friendship between the revolutionary class was still there.

I nodded and asked Faang Yuan, "I haven't been in contact with him for a few days. What has this kid been busy with recently?"

Faang Yuan sighed, "Their Yan Hotel has been doing pretty well in the past two years. I heard that they opened several branches in Nanjing. Recently, they were preparing to run the company business and set up an 800-square-meter flagship store. Just the design cost of the flagship store alone cost more than 300,000 yuan. It's quite good! "

I also sighed. "His father is really awesome! He even turned this kid into a second-generation rich kid when he's old!"

Faang Yuan shrugged and said," This has nothing to do with his father. It's not like you don't know that his third uncle works in the Business Bureau and is in power. It's only a matter of time before his family's smoke hotel becomes big! "

I agree with Faang Yuan's point of view. In this society, there is a huge difference between having connections and not having connections. For example, Xiang Chen and I are two distinct contrast.

...

In the afternoon, Faang Yuan left the company. My work also started to get busy. I didn't get off work until 8 PM. The next day, even though it was Saturday. I continued to work overtime for the whole day, mainly to help Faang Yuan with the project of setting up a special cabinet in our shopping mall. These two days, I have been docking with the research team at the GUCC and modifying the project proposal according to their request.

In just two days, I felt like I was under a lot of stress, and then I got tired of it. This made me understand: Compared to Faang Yuan, my workability is still a little lacking. At least, he has always been able to handle these matters with ease.

Saturday night at 9: 00 PM, I dragged my tired body and got on the last bus back home. My mood did not relax because of tomorrow's rest. My mind was thinking about the situation at Faang Yuan and Yem Yan's wedding the next day. Although I was happy about their marriage, I was not willing to meet Jian Wei in such a joyous occasion. This unwillingness grew stronger and stronger as time passed. In my opinion, Faang Yuan and Yem Yan's wedding was a cruel torture and torture for Jian Wei and me.

Perhaps Jian Wei would not care about this kind of torture, but I really care!

...

It was already 9: 30 when I returned to my residence. I didn't immediately wash up and rest. I just sat on the sofa in the living room and habitually lit a cigarette. After that, I was immersed in my anxiety and couldn't extricate myself. I even forgot to play a song with a guitar to relax myself.

I drank a glass of cold water and lay on the sofa, staring blankly at the ceiling. After a moment, I heard the sound of the door opening. I knew Mi Cai had returned. She had come back later than me these two days. Perhaps she also had her own nightlife. But this has nothing to do with me.

The smell of the cigarette in the room made Mi Cai frown. She walked to my side and said to me, "Can you not smoke in the living room?"

I didn't mind Mi Cai's question and said indifferently, "What's wrong with smoking in the living room? I didn't go to your room to smoke."

"I can't smoke in the living room either. I don't want to come back every day. The moment I entered the room, it was filled with a foul atmosphere." Mi Cai said with a stern voice.

"Then next time I smoke, I will open the window. The wind will disperse after a while." I said to Mi Cai while holding back my anxiety.

"That won't do either. In the future, you can only go out to smoke. This room doesn't allow it."

I sat up from the sofa and said with a frown, "This also won't allow it, and that won't allow it either. You treat me as your grandson, right? I've lived in this room for more than two years. I've smoked in every corner of the room. Including the room you're currently in and... the toilet in the bathroom."

After I got angry, Mi Cai suddenly said to me very calmly, "If you are so dissatisfied, then find a room to live in yourself. Even if you climb up the roof to smoke, no one will care about you."

I did not speak but I was annoyed by the feeling of being pinched in the ribs. However, I could not resist. In my heart, I hated myself for being able to buy this house as a large sum of money and then climb up the roof to smoke a cigarette.

After a while, I kneaded the cigarette box into a ball and threw it into the trash basket. I glared at Mi Cai and said rudely, "I am not smoking anymore. Are you satisfied?"

Mi Cai calmly looked at me and asked, "Young Master? Didn't you just say that you are your grandson?"

I angrily replied, "Nonsense, you are the one who treats me like a grandson. When did I say that I am a grandson?"

Mi Cai smiled and shrugged her shoulders. She turned around and walked towards her own house.

I was stunned for a long time before I realized that she was setting a trap for me. She made me unknowingly admit that I was her grandson... I suddenly had the urge to spurt out blood in her room. She was too f * cking bullying honest people!

...

After washing up, I returned to my room. The door was tightly shut. I found another pack of cigarettes, opened it, and lit one. Then, I opened the window and lay down on the bed, smoking.

The phone that didn't ring for a long time rang without any warning. I was stunned for a long time. When the ringtone was about to end, I picked up the phone from the bedside cabinet and answered the call.

Yem Yan's familiar voice came through the phone, "Zhao Yang, are you asleep?"

"I'm lying down. I'm not asleep yet."

Yem Yan sighed, "Are you thinking about something again? A single man is so pitiful!"

"Call me back later. I'll go to the bathroom and cry for a while." I said unhappily. Yem Yan and Faang Yuan were the same. They always comforted people until they wanted to die.

Yem Yan smiled and said, "Alright, I will talk to you about serious matters."

"Hurry up and say it." I took another puff of smoke and said.

"... " I'm with Jian Wei right now? She will stay at my house tonight." Yem Yan whispered to me.

I restrained my heartbeat and pretended to be calm as I asked, "Are you not with Faang Yuan?"

"Are you stupid?! I am definitely at home right now." After saying that, she sweetly added, "Wait for my husband to marry me tomorrow!"

"Oh."

"That... Do you want to say a few words to Jian Wei? She is currently in the living room chatting with my parents. " Yem Yan's voice became even lower.

I have no words to say...

Another voice suddenly came from the other end of the phone, "Yem Yan, what are you doing?"

Then there was the sound of the phone suddenly hanging up. I didn't hang up the phone for a long time. I could tell that it was Jian Wei's voice.

Finally, the phone automatically hung up. After a while, Yem Yan sent me a message, "You heard Jian Wei's voice just now... I was scared to death. I called you behind her back. This matter needs your client's consent to communicate so that I can help you connect. Why don't you make it seem like I don't know what I'm doing! "

I didn't reply to the message. Instead, I quietly snuffed out the cigarette in my hand. Her voice still lingered in my ears, and I thought of the happy us in the evening rain.

Actually, it doesn't really matter to us whether or not we communicate tonight. After all, we will meet with our real bodies tomorrow. Moreover, it has already been three years. Do you still care about enduring another anxious night?
