Capítulo 17: Thousand Things will Change 2
The moon hid with the stars as they set. Slowly the sky turned from dark to light. Xiao You Ren opened his eyes, glanced at the gap in the window curtain that was open and displayed the cheerfulness of the morning. His attention then turned to the hairy figure who still had his eyes closed beside him. Can't help but reach out and gently pet his snuggled cat. Xiao You Ren also threw a kiss on the top of Lie's head and rubbed its nose.
Satisfied playing with Lie, he got up from his bed and rushed into the bathroom. Cleans up well and wears work clothes with a long neck, covering the obvious reddened burn with her skin. Although his body hasn't fully recovered yet, but Xiao You Ren feels able to spend the day at the office. After all he had a bit of a serious conversation with his friend, Zhao Yuzi, regarding his pet cat.
Xiao You Ren intended to leave the cat at Zhao Yuzi's residence for an indefinite period. He didn't want that if Wang Xian Wei were to take over such an easy job, what Xiao You Ren was actually afraid of was that something bad might happen. Seeing Wang Xian Wei kicking his cat without any guilt, it's not impossible that the man was able to kill him easily. Xiao You Ren didn't want such a thing to happen.
After cleaning up and getting dressed, Xiao You Ren returned to his room and gave Lie a light kiss. Then contact the cleaning service to clean the apartment. Usually Xiao You Ren did it himself, to reduce the monthly fee. However, in today's case, he was forced to order cleaning services. In addition to the body that is still a bit weak, the apartment is too dirty.
"Lie, I'm leaving," he said softly. Carrying a briefcase and sauntering out, towards the parking area and then taking the car to the office.
People gave strange looks. Xiao You Ren's appearance was quite striking in such clothes. Even though it wasn't summer, it wasn't so cold that it required one to wear such a closed garment. Xiao You Ren ignored everything that was going on around him, other people's strange thoughts about him, as well as conversations that he didn't really know about. It was very common for him to have this kind of thing happen. From high school to college, when he wore clothes that didn't suit the weather conditions, everyone would gossip about him. Even if everyone in the office hated him and gave him disgusting looks, Xiao You Ren wouldn't care anymore. Although there will be a sense of depression experienced.
"Ren Ren." Zhao Yuzi with a bright smile approached Xiao You Ren. She had arrived a few minutes earlier and was waiting in front of the employee elevator. Seeing Xiao You Ren's appearance like that, Zhao Yuzi felt normal, even too ordinary. Of course she knew the reason, but to stop the chatter around Xiao You Ren, she spoke up and said, "Ah, Ren Ren, you're still sick! Should stay at home resting until fully recovered, Sir Xian Wei would understand!" she continued on purpose.
The girl's words succeeded in making people feel a little guilty. How can they talk about stupid things without any basis.
Zhao Yuzi then forcibly dragged Xiao You Ren's body into the elevator. Break through the queue of other employees who stare disapprovingly. "Excuse me, he's sick. Please make way!"
Hearing this, Xiao You Ren couldn't help but give those around him an uneasy smile. Before the elevator doors closed, Xiao You Ren bowed slightly and said, "Sorry." That sincerity bothered some employees, although it didn't really erode some of the other's feelings of irritability.
"Yuzi, there's something I want to talk to you about during the break, can I?" Xiao You Ren asked. They walked out of the elevator to their respective rooms.
Zhao Yuzi glared at the man beside her. "No. I'm very busy," she answered seriously. There was no joking streak on that face and tone of voice.
Hearing the girl's answer, Xiao You Ren felt a little guilty in his heart. With a slightly gloomy face he replied, "I'm sorry."
In the next second, a burst of crisp laughter filled Xiao You Ren's eardrums. The man turned his head to the side and found Zhao Yuzi who was still laughing. Xiao You Ren's gaze changed, a subtle frown began to fill his forehead.
"I'm joking, You Ren. Don't be so serious, when did I turn you down anyway? Never, right?" Zhao Yuzi explained. Success increased the number of wrinkles on Xiao You Ren's face.
The man then raised one hand and patted the shoulder of the girl next to him. "Don't make jokes about what seems real, I can feel sad and believe it."
Before being separated by the room, they burst out light laughs and waved to each other.
…..
As usual, Xiao You Ren's fingers were always shrewd in doing the job, as if they were made for it. Every now and then a serious expression reaches the man's expression and his indifference towards the surroundings is getting thicker. When it comes to work, Xiao You Ren is like a monster that won't stop until it finishes tearing its prey.
He didn't notice that someone walked up to him and sat at the desk of the employee next door.
He looked at him questioningly, but seemed reluctant to start a conversation. As a result that person just sat there waiting until Xiao You Ren, inadvertently, turned his attention to him.
"Hello, Huanling," Xiao You Ren greeted kindly. Smile and get on with the job.
The person who was greeted flashed a smile in return. Even so, there was still a corner of his heart that felt restless and wanted to say a few words to the man beside him. After considering several aspects, Huanling finally got up the courage to call out, "You Ren."
The summoned person cleared his throat, though he didn't look away at him---still staring intently at the computer. Which made Huanling feel a little impatient and purposely stood closer to the boy. Noticing Xiao You Ren's hand movements and his high concentration on work. Huanling turned his attention away and accidentally found a red mark on the crook of Xiao You Ren's neck. From his position, standing quite close to Xiao You Ren and looking at the man from above, the rashes were clearly visible. In contrast to when he was in a position that was parallel or slightly higher or even low.
Huanling was not such an innocent young man, though not wild. However, he knew something like a mark on a person's body. His face turned blank, his eyes cold, and his expression confused and surprised. All of it mixed at the same time. How could a man so pure get such marks? Huanling was shocked.
Realizing the presence of someone next to him, Xiao You Ren immediately ignored the computer screen and turned his face to look at Huanling who was still motionless beside him.
"Huanling, is there anything I can help you with?" Xiao You Ren reached out to shake the boy's body. However, a rough edge is obtained in response. Success made Xiao You Ren freeze with wide eyes.
Huanling's consciousness returned at least, he immediately sat up in his seat and flashed a stiff smile. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to, it seemed that I was a little lost in my daydream," he explained.
Of course it's just an absurd excuse.
Ignoring what just happened, Xiao You Ren smiled and asked the same thing, "Can I help you?" Very sincere. That was what Huanling heard and saw, making him doubt the bad thoughts that had flashed through his mind.
"You Ren, rest later," he said doubtfully. Slightly glanced at Xiao You Ren's unchanged facial expression, still gentle and friendly looking. "Can you help me pass this file to Sir Xian Wei or Phi John? I have to go back to the hospital at rest, to take care of my sister who is sick."
Finally Huanling vomited his intention from earlier. It wasn't that there was no one else to turn to for help, it was just that he was closer to Xiao You Ren. In addition to their adjacent tables, it was also because they had several small conversations.
Xiao You Ren gave a steady nod in response. There was no reason to refuse the man's request, especially hearing that his sister was sick and being cared for. Xiao You Ren had more and more trouble resisting it.
As promised. Xiao You Ren brought a file to hand over to his superiors.
He came a little earlier because he still had a lunch appointment with Zhao Yuzi. Xiao You Ren had already told the girl about this, so he didn't have to worry about any trouble later. His hand moved to knock on the CEO's office door, but the door opened first from the inside.
Johnny came out of the room with a few other files and stared in shock at the frozen Xiao You Ren. "You Ren, what's wrong?" Johnny asked.
Hesitantly Xiao You Ren showed the file in his hand and replied, "Huanling left this to me, he has to go away for a while."
Johnny had an understanding expression and his lips were always muttering, "Oh." Immediately he invited the man to enter, while he was led away from the front door.
Xiao You Ren nervously opened the door and smiled as he greeted Wang Xian Wei. He closed the door and walked over to his boss. Reached out to hand over the file that Huanling had left. "Sir, this is a file from Huanling."
Wang Xian Wei gave his employees an ordinary, boss-like look. However, over time the gaze turned cold and in a nonchalant voice he asked, "Where is that clerk?"
Xiao You Ren's hair grew, even though he had seen such an expression many times, he still didn't feel used to it. They already had a little more time to meet than just a boss and employee, but it was impossible for Xiao You Ren to get along and act like they knew each other better. So that stiffness refuses to leave the corner of his heart.
He struggled to raise his voice and give an answer, "His sister is sick, sir, so Huanling went to the hospital to look after her during his break."
"Disappointing," Wang Xian Wei muttered. Staring at the file that was lying on his desk.
Xiao You Ren couldn't say anything. Even though they'll see each other more often and maybe have a more intimate relationship, they still act like they're not close to each other. And try hard to contain a desire that little by little develops in each of them. However, how long can they be like that?
