Rebirth: Bent by Bamboo Horse

Chapter 18 The Truth Before Rebirth (If you have read it, you need to read it again)

"Hi, I'm Ji Ran, where are you now?"

"I'm on the way, you tell them to eat first, don't wait for me, there is a traffic jam."

"Oh well."

After saying this, there was a pause for a few seconds, Ji Ran thought the other party would hang up first.

"Let them eat first, and then I'll pay the bill." Normally, Ji Ran might feel that he took advantage of it, but recently he has a bit of a bad opinion of Shen Yue, making him feel that this person is deliberately showing off.

After Ji Ran entered, the classmate sitting by the door quickly asked how it was?

"He said that there was a traffic jam on the road, and it might be late. Let's eat first, and then he will pay the bill and make amends."

These words were obviously processed by Ji Ran, and everyone knew it well.

Back then when Shen Yue spoke, he was the kind who could irritate people to death, and his temper was very violent. A few words to him would probably lead to a fight directly, so Ji Ran had nothing to do with it in the middle, so as to avoid a lot of unhappiness

fast.

Shen Yue said that he would be there in a while, but the fact is that they had eaten half, and Shen Yue was the only one who arrived.

"Shen Yue! You are finally here! Hurry up, come and sit, there is a seat reserved for you." The class monitor saw Shen Yue before Ji Ran, so he stood up straight away and called Shen Yue to sit down.

Shen Yue didn't hesitate, and walked over directly. He glanced at Ji Ran, and then apologized to everyone for being late.

Everyone didn't care much, it's not like just now, whoever comes late will drink a few more glasses of wine, from this, we can see what Shen Yue was like in everyone's eyes when he was in school , Anyway, it's all kinds of irresistible characters.

Ji Ran could clearly see the squad leader's enthusiasm for Shen Yue, but he remembered that the squad leader said that Shen Yue was his client, so it made sense.

Although the atmosphere was not as lively as it was at the beginning, the dinner was still satisfactorily finished.

Before leaving, because Ji Ran said that Shen Yue paid the money, everyone hesitated at first what to do, but in the end Shen Yue went out first, and everyone followed one after another. It turned out that Shen Yue had already paid when he came. money.

After dinner, they agreed that they would go to sing, and the location was not far from where they ate, and it took only a few minutes to walk there.Although Ji Ran likes to sing, he seldom goes to K songs with others, so his level is a bit erratic, at least he thinks so.

The squad leader booked a presidential box, which was so large that it could accommodate more than 30 of them.

After sitting down, many colleagues have already started ordering songs. The squad leader first drank beer and then sat on the sofa.He was sitting with Shen Yue, Ji Ran watched the two of them talking happily, originally planned to sit a little farther away, but then heard the squad leader ask Shen Yue about the next list, and wondered if there was any solution.

Ji Ran remembered that the squad leader seemed to have told him about this.

"I have the final say on this matter, it still depends on the quality of your products."

"The quality must be fine. Isn't the one you signed last time all good?" the squad leader took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket as he spoke.

"No need, I don't smoke." Shen Yue didn't give the monitor this face.

"Oh, it's good not to smoke. It's true that smoking is bad for your health, but for people like us, smoking has become a means of communication." The squad leader didn't feel embarrassed, but just put away the cigarettes neatly.

"Your company's development prospects are not good, I think you should think more about yourself." Ji Ran completely stopped after hearing this sentence, and he glanced at the monitor's expression.

But because of the lighting, he couldn't see very clearly, but he felt that the other party seemed to be taken aback.

"I think it's okay now." The squad leader stopped looking for topics after he finished speaking, which made the atmosphere a bit awkward.

Maybe he also felt this, and the squad leader just found an excuse and went out.

Someone asked Ji Ran to sing, because he didn't want to sit there alone with Shen Yue, so he agreed, but after singing a few lines, no one asked him to continue. Because Ji Ran was a little excited to sing, he felt so hot Soon, I took off my coat, and my whole face was red.

Lively music and colorful lights make it easy to get restless.

But there are exceptions, such as Shen Yue who has been sitting in the dark, Ji Ran thought he would leave soon, but unexpectedly he persisted until now.

At the end of the song, Ji Ran went directly to take the bus because his home was relatively close.

When Ji Ran went out, he didn't see Shen Yue. Shen Yue moved out a long time ago and didn't live in N City, although the house still seems to be there.At that time, Shen Yue had just left, and he would go around his house when he had nothing to do. Now that I think about it, I feel depressed about why I was like that at that time.

Ji Ran is very familiar with this bus, he used this bus to go to school back then.

Shen Yue followed the bus until the person got off the bus. He sat in the car and looked at the familiar place, the lights went on and off, and then he turned around in the car.

Looking at the familiar scene in front of me, it seems that the only change is that this place has become smaller.

Shen Yue closed his eyes, and what came to mind in his mind were all the memories of that time. Before his rebirth, he almost survived by relying on those memories.

Because after Ji Ran left, he couldn't sleep well.

At that time, he had been with Ji Ran for three years, and he was almost out of the closet. He was usually the kind of person who didn't want to express too much, and his whole heart was on work. Ji Ran's family gave Ji Ran A lot of pressure, his parents seem to know a little bit about them

Yes, Ji Ran mentioned it to himself, what he said at the time was, then come out.Ji Ran was very dissatisfied with his attitude. It was better at the beginning, but in the end all kinds of conflicts arose.Thinking about it now, I was so confident at that time that I felt that Ji Ran's feelings for me were taken for granted.

After that, Ji Ran's proposal to break up became a matter of course.

He clearly remembered the last few words Ji Ran said, "I don't know if you really like me, I spent a long time thinking about this question, until now I haven't found the answer, let's break up, you It seems that one can live well.”

"I didn't. You know that sometimes I don't know how to express myself. You know, I like you. Maybe I didn't do enough, but please don't go."

In the end, Ji Ran still took away all his things. At that time, Shen Yue thought that he would be back in a few days. He never really blushed, and he quickly forgot all the unhappiness.It's just that he really didn't intend to come back that time, so Shen Yue went to find him.

He didn't expect Ji Ran to be like that to him. He didn't feel it when he was at home every day, but he left suddenly, as if his heart was empty, and he was a little muddled every day, and he couldn't concentrate on doing anything. , All I can think about in my mind is why doesn't that person come back?How could he just leave?Did he really want to leave him?

The subsequent reconciliation did not go well.

He knew that Ji Ran's family was urging him to go on a blind date, and Ji Ran had compromised a few times. Although he was just looking at it for a show, he still couldn't control himself. He felt that he didn't have Ji Ran completely under his control at all. within the controllable range.He couldn't watch Ji Ran with others, he thought he would go crazy.

One day after that, he received a call, saying that he was asked to prepare a sum of money and send it directly to a certain place, otherwise the ticket would be torn up.Shen Yue was blindfolded when he heard Ji Ran's voice, he had to make his voice not sound so flustered.He could only stabilize himself by holding the phone with both hands, and his little finger and ring finger began to tremble uncontrollably.

I haven't seen him for so long, and now I see him in such a situation?He hammered hard on the position of his heart twice, trying to calm himself down.

"Why do you think he's worth that much money?" This is what Shen Yue said after thinking about it.Why is he betting?Why is he doing this?

"It's not worth it? It's not worth it to live together? Aren't you a gay couple?" The smile on the other side was very smug, but it didn't last long.

"Cohabitation? It's just that you didn't do a good job at work. Anyone who knows will find out how many times I go to his place. It's true that he is my classmate, but classmates are worth so much? If you don't believe me, you can ask yourself .”

Ji Ran heard Shen Yue's words on the phone, and he admitted at the time that he was just playing with Shen Yue, gay, too much, but he still pretended to ask Shen Yue to save him, after all, together Been playing for so long.

In order to make this play more realistic, Shen Yue bargained for a long time, and finally succeeded, Shen Yue was a little relieved.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Yue called the police, and took the money to the place they designated. Along the way, he didn't know if he wanted to be thankful that he didn't get into a car accident, because sometimes he couldn't control the steering wheel better.

The plan seemed to be much smoother than Shen Yue imagined. When Ji Ran appeared, he felt that it was enough. This was enough. What could be more precious than regaining something lost.

At that moment, he knew that Ji Ran had forgiven him, the surprise he saw in his eyes the moment he rushed out of the warehouse.

It's just that this kind of happiness didn't last long. When the gun rang, Shen Yue felt that it wasn't just that person who fell down, but also his own heart. He felt that all of this was fake.He kept shaking Ji Ran's phone, and whispered in Ji Ran's ear, "Of course, wake up, okay? I'm coming, don't sleep, okay? I won't do that again, I will Tell you everything, I won’t do anything you don’t like, I will let you be free, you can do whatever you want, can you wake up? I beg you, can you wake up? Don’t sleep, please is you……"

Shen Yue said that he really felt that Ji Ran was just asleep, he was fine, he would wake up when he called.The hot liquid dripped on the back of his hand, and he didn't feel numb at all.

It wasn't until a week later, at Ji Ran's funeral, that he suddenly realized that the man was really gone, and he would never see him again.

When Shen Yue opened his eyes, the street lights outside were still on. He touched the sweat and tears on his face, and he couldn't calm down for a long time. Although it had been such a long time, every time Appear in your dreams in different forms.He glanced at the time, it was only three o'clock.

Shen Yue took out his mobile phone, there was only one number stored in it, he dialed that number as usual, and it took a while for the other side to answer, and then he gave a hello in a drowsy voice.

Shen Yue didn't say a word, just listened to the other party scold impatiently for being crazy, and then hung up the phone viciously, then continued to look at the school gate not far away in peace.
