"It's no big deal."
With a sandwich in his mouth, Chu Han fell down on the gaming chair and spoke in a high voice:
"I'll be in the semi-finals in two days. If you and my brother have nothing to do, come and watch my game! Such a historic and memorable moment!"
"Okay, okay, when?"
Chu Xijin's hands naturally rested on He Nian's waist. The waist line was thin and beautiful, and the tiger's mouth was stuck on the hip bone. His thumb gently rubbed the small red mole.
"Monday at six o'clock."
At first, he felt that the massage was comfortable during the New Year, but gradually, the taste seemed to change, and the technique became... very strange. He answered the phone without paying much attention and said that it was okay.
Chu Han said again: "By the way, how was the exam? Did it go well? I'll treat you to a big dinner after the competition."
"I feel like it should be pretty good..."
He Nian couldn't concentrate at all. He tried his best to hold his breath and control the violent rise and fall of his chest. His eyes were dim and his cheeks were lightly red.
He was obviously very panicked, but he was willing to take whatever he wanted.
"Well, won't the results be out for a while? If you're bored, you can come to our base to play, it's a super luxury club."
Speaking of which, every time we come and go, we are considered acquaintances with the members of the VT team.
"I don't know if I have time..."
Halfway through the New Year's greetings, his eyes trembled fiercely, and he almost screamed, and a moist and hot kiss fell on the small red mole.
At that moment, his whole body was almost numb, and his round toes curled up unbearably. He shuddered and turned around to beg the man for mercy with his eyes.
Chu Xijin smiled with a smile on his lips and just pushed back his messy forehead hair that was wet with sweat.
"What's wrong?" Chu Han heard two rapid gasps and asked in confusion:
"Are you working out?"
"Yes." He Nian gritted his teeth and responded, his eyelashes trembling, trying hard not to make other sounds.
"I plan to exercise recently..."
Chu Han didn't doubt it at all, and didn't notice why his New Year greetings were always intermittent:
"My brother's gym at home has complete facilities. You can practice whatever you want. Alas, it's a pity that my leg was lame during that time..."
I was easily excited in the morning, but now the New Year greetings were about to be burned to ashes. I was so excited that I raised the flag and saluted, and just wanted to end this phone call quickly.
"Xiaohan, there is a competition coming soon. You should be very busy. I won't disturb you."
Chu Han panicked when he was tired from running. After saying a few words in a hurry, he hung up the phone.
It was already an hour later when they actually got up. Although they didn't make it to the end, for the two of them, it was a good time after a long drought.
Coming out of the bathroom, He Nian's ears had been burned for a long time, and there was still residual heat.
Chu Xijin had something to do and had to go on a business trip to the next city for a day. Liang Yunyun probably knew a little bit about the relationship between the two of them. It happened to be a time to relax after the college entrance examination, so he didn't come to disturb him.
The New Year was suddenly separated from the busy state, which was still a bit unaccustomed.
In fact, he is not too worried about his grades. He believes that hard work will pay off and he is looking forward to the future.
If you really don't get admitted to the ideal school, that's okay. You can make it your next goal. There is still a chance to take the postgraduate entrance exam.
In short, taking the college entrance examination again has made up for the previous regrets. Although it is late, it is here. I feel very happy in the New Year.
In the blink of an eye, it's mid-June, the weather is getting hotter and the results are getting closer and closer.
Chu Han's birthday coincided with Chu Han's participation in the KPL finals. Chu Xijin made a reservation for the restaurant in advance, and then said to the assistant on the side:
"All meetings after 2 p.m. are cancelled."
"Okay, boss."
Zhao Lechuan stood upright, held his silver-rimmed eyes, and respectfully handed over the folder in his hand.
"You still need to sign these two projects."
Chu Xijin's eyes fell on the information: "I'll give you half a day off today."
A senior elite assistant would never show his emotions casually. Zhao Lechuan had planned this half-day vacation perfectly in his heart.
Just as Chu Xijin was about to sign, there were several messages on the lock screen of his phone, which were sent to him in the New Year.
[Sir, Xiaohan's game will end in the afternoon, around four o'clock. 】
[I...may come back a little later. I promised him that I would watch the game. 】
[Sir, is it okay? 】
The hand that was about to sign the document paused for a moment, and Chu Xijin sighed helplessly. What can he do? He has already reported the itinerary to himself, how can he still prevent his little boyfriend from going?
Zhao Lechuan observed his boss's expression and suddenly had a bad feeling.
Thirty seconds later.
Chu Xijin put the signed documents aside and said calmly:
"Special Assistant Zhao, the afternoon trip will continue."
"Okay, boss."
Zhao Lechuan faced the ups and downs in life with a smile, and he comforted himself. At least, he was happy at that moment.
VT is a completely new team that came out of the city's 100-match breakout tournament and stood out from the crowd. They seemed to be cheating all the way and achieved many dazzling results, becoming an extraordinary internet celebrity team.
In addition, the annual salary of the VT team is much higher than that of other clubs, including five insurances and one fund, including food and accommodation, and medical insurance is no exception. Everything is included, and there are three free trips a year. All conditions are ridiculously good. Many people are trying to get in.
This game has attracted much attention, especially Chu Han. With the background blessing of the Chu Group, the entertainment topic is very high.
VT also lived up to expectations. As soon as four o'clock in the afternoon, entertainment news about winning the championship swept the headlines of all major platforms.
Chu Han revealed three months before the game that he would temporarily retire if he reached the finals. However, during the interview, he looked at the trophy in his hand and his teammates beside him and hesitated.
Professional competitions are all about youth, but he has already been studying for a year. The usual training tasks are very heavy, and the schoolwork at F University is by no means easy.
What if it can be done both?
He is only nineteen years old, and he is too tired to die anyway. He will try it first, and if it doesn't work, we will talk about it later.
After watching the game, He Nian took a taxi to the company. Before it was time to get off work, the front desk staff looked at the young man wearing a peaked cap and almost didn't recognize him.
"Little sir, your new hair color looks great!"
He Nian smiled sheepishly, said thank you, and then rushed into the elevator as if running away, his whole ears were red.
In the morning, Chu Han said that he would dye his hair red to welcome VT to win the championship, but He Nian was pulled away in a daze. The hairstylist seemed to be a twerp singer and was very eloquent. In the end, his black hair turned into pink hair.
To be precise, it's a light golden pink.
The hairstylist was right. He Nian's facial features were originally good-looking, with a youthful and student-like air. But changing his hair color changed his whole temperament.
The light golden powder makes her skin fairer, and her slightly dull facial features become finely crafted, beautiful and not feminine at all, like a popular starlet.
But this color was too bold, and He Nian didn't feel confident about it at all. If his husband didn't like it, he would dye it back right away.
As soon as he got out of the elevator, He Nian was walking so fast that he had no time to react and bumped into someone. He almost fell down after taking two steps back.
Chu Xijin frowned slightly, his eyes fell on the black peaked cap and paused for a second. He didn't see his face clearly, and asked in a calm tone:
"Which department?"
He Nian lowered his head and stared at the floor, feeling quite cold in his heart. His tone was so serious. If he was really an employee, he would probably be fired.
In the end, he could only resist the pressure and took off his hat stiffly, then raised his head to meet the man's eyes and asked cautiously:
"Sir, is my hair ugly? I will dye it back tomorrow..."
Chu Xijin was stunned for a rare moment, with a flash of surprise in his eyes. He stared at He Nian for a long time before reaching out to touch his cheek.
"Not ugly at all, very nice."
Like a peach that has become sperm, her dark eyes are so beautiful and shining with hope.
Hearing this, He Nian's ears started to feel hot again.
After a kiss for dessert, He Nian sat obediently on the sofa in the office. What made him a little overwhelmed was that he received a lot of birthday wishes for his birthday this year.
He replied to all the messages one by one. Most of them were sent to WeChat. Only one blessing was in the form of a text message. He didn't click on it to express his New Year greetings and directly chose to delete it.
He has long since learned to let go of the past.
Knowing that he didn't like drinking coffee during the New Year, Chu Xijin made him a cup of scented tea that was not bitter, handed the cup and saucer to him, and said warmly:
"It will be done soon. I will take you to dinner later."
The fragrance of jasmine drifted away, and He Nian took the cup and took a long sip. It was really difficult for him to connect the gentle-tongued person in front of him with the person who just asked him sternly which department he was from.
But he liked this in his heart. Except for him, Chu Xijin whom others saw was kept away from strangers.
Just before going out, He Nian sneezed several times. He later realized that he might be allergic to jasmine, but it was not serious.
At half past five, there were beautiful fire clouds outside the window, illuminating the sky with a golden glow.
When it was time to get off work, Zhao Lechuan's sharp eyes saw his boss entering the elevator with a little boy beside him, wearing a mask so tightly that he must be a small star in the entertainment industry.
Unexpectedly, the boss turned out to be such a person!
Zhao Lechuan followed him all the way downstairs, feeling tangled in his heart. Judging from the behavior of the two of them, it was absolutely impossible for them to be innocent. They were really evil capitalists!
He and the little gentleman have known each other for so long, and they have a certain friendship. He has to take photos of the evidence, and then let the little gentleman see through it early. It is best to leave heartbroken and never look back.
Chu Xijin booked a Chinese restaurant, which was reserved for the whole day. All the dishes were favorites for New Year celebrations, whether it was chestnut gogu chicken, coconut milk cake, or fried spring rolls.
"How is the taste?"
He was eating fried spring rolls in the New Year. He nodded hurriedly when he heard the words, and his mouth bulged. Under the bright light, the exposed skin was milky white.
The restaurant is located near a lake. After nightfall, the center of the lake is calm without any ripples. Every corner of the restaurant is carefully decorated, elegant and quiet.
At this time, the pastry chef in the restaurant came over with a freshly made cake. It was not too big and looked more like a work of art. Next to it was a large bouquet of roses.
After the pastry chef left, Chu Xijin presented the bouquet of roses to New Year greetings:
"Happy birthday, Xiaonian."
The New Year greeter paused for breath, looked at the flowers and then turned to look at the cake. His eyes were hot and he couldn't bear to blink. He felt that this scene was very dreamy, as if he had seen it in a dream.
After a long time, He Nian slowly took the bouquet. He couldn't help but sniff, and looked up at the man:
"Sir, thank you." His tone was so solemn, like he was making a sacred declaration.
"Thank you for everything you've done for me."
If you are careful, you will find that He Nian's hands are shaking slightly, and his voice is quietly stained with crying, but he is trying his best to hold it back.
He didn't know how to express his inner joy, touch, warmth, and love. It seemed that no expression was enough, and the surging emotions would never stop.
"No credit."
Chu Xijin covered his hand, gently rubbed the slightly cold fingertips, and deliberately teased:
"It has to be paid back. Let's agree first that we can't use fresh milk cake to offset the debt this time."
Hearing this, He Nian couldn't help but laugh again. The smile on his little face was sincere and beautiful. He thought for a while and whispered something in Chu Xijin's ear. He was so embarrassed after saying it.
Chu Xijin raised her eyebrows at him in surprise. A reserved and shy person actually took this step for him.
Knuckles clasping the table rhythmically, Chu Xijin held He Nian's shoulders and rubbed his temples close to his ears. The coaxing voice was as tender as water.
"Sir, can you make any other requests?"
He Nian felt that his ears were itching from the heat, and the man's deep voice penetrated deep into his heart. He subconsciously shrank his neck and stuttered:
"What, what's the request?"
