Chapter 6
The weather forecast that morning said that there would be a big temperature drop at noon the next day, but after eight o’clock in the evening, the temperature suddenly began to drop sharply and the wind rose.
At the annual meeting, everyone else was just drinking and drinking hot or talking emotionally, no one seemed to feel cold, only Shen Yiyou was beside the heating box to warm up freezing hands and feet.
He and Li Shu spent more than half an hour together.
Li Shu has a kind of talent for cooling the surroundings, but it was not annoying. Shen Yiyou did not want to leave the heating box. He accompanied Li Shu to chat, thinking about the excuse for leaving early.
Li Shu and Zhu Yingbo, one of the company’s founders, were in the same university and have collaborated on projects while at school. This time Li Shu came to S city and came to Zhu Yingbo to discuss the regional market situation. Tonight, Zhu Yingbo’s company just happened to host an annual meeting. Li Shu went here to take a look at Zhu’s company’s employee atmosphere.
“I was going to leave in five minutes,” Li Shu told Shen Yiyou.
“Why didn’t you go?” Shen Yiyou spoke smoothly and then found that the questions she asked were a bit redundant.
Then Li Shu calmed down and didn’t answer.
They were silent for a minute or two, Shen Yiyou clasped his arms in the cold wind, and finally figured out the reason to go home early, and planned to find a way to make the excuse. Suddenly, Li Shu asked: “Aren’t you cold.”
Shen Yiyou looked up, and found that Li Shu took off the coat outside the hoodie, and handed it to Shen Yiyou liked it was a pen sent between classmates in the school days: “Wear mine.”
Shen Yiyou walked for a moment, looked at Li Shu for two seconds, and subconsciously rejected: “No need.”
“Wear it.” Li Shu was taller than him, looked down at him, his eyes were a little serious, and his hand reached in the air.
Shen Yiyou thought he seemed to want to tuck his jacket directly to himself, but because he didn’t have such experience and didn’t know how to tuck it in a more suitable way, he was still thinking about it.
“I really don’t need it.” Shen Yiyou wanted to laugh a little, didn’t pick up his clothes, and waved to Li Shu, “I have to go.”
“I have to go too,” Li Shu answered quickly, “you wear it first.”
Li Shu might have prepared enough psychological construction. Li Shu tucked his jacket into Shen Yiyou’s arms, then quickly pulled back his hand, and took a step back, as if to prevent Shen Yiyou from putting his clothes back on him again.
Shen Yiyou accepted it a little bit, thanked Li Shu and put on his coat.
Li Shu’s jacket was quilted. There was no perfume smell on the clothes. The inner layer was with body temperature. Shen Yiyou warmed up as soon as she put it on.
But Li Shu himself only wore a thin hoodie, and once he took off his jacket, he wore less than Shen Yiyou originally.
Shen Yiyou was touched a little, watching Li Shu smiled, and said, “I’ll give it back to you when I go in.”
Li Shu didn’t answer and turned his head away unnaturally. He paused and said, “I’ll go to find Zhu Yingbo.” Then he left.
After a while, Li Shu and Zhu Yingbo came together.
“I’ll let the driver take you,” Zhu Yingbo said, “Yiyou, where do you live?”
At that time, Shen Yiyou’s house was still being renovated and rented near the studio. He told Zhu Yingbo his address and Zhu Yingbo said: “The hotel where Li Shu lives is also nearby. You just happen to be in the same way. I’ll send you out.”
They went downstairs. The driver was already waiting downstairs. Li Shu and Shen Yiyou sat in the back row together. The car was very warm. Shen Yiyou took off Li Shu’s coat and looked up to find that Li Shu was watching him again.
“You should wear more clothes when you go out.” Li Shu told him.
Shen Yiyou said “um”, explaining: “I didn’t expect it to be so cold.”
Li Shu opened his mouth slightly, as if trying to say something, but did not say anything in the end.
The chat was over, and they sat quietly for almost half an hour. Arrived at Shen Yiyou’s residence, Li Shu insisted that Shen Yiyou re-wear his coat, and he sent Shen Yiyou over before leaving.
Li Shu was very persistent, Shen Yiyou could not bear to refuse, and agreed to him. Li Shu continued to walk next to Shen Yiyou across a distance of 70 to 80 cm, still looked at Shen Yiyou sideways.
The area where Shen Yiyou rented was very old, with dense greenery, but the lighting was about equal to nothing, and the road was dark. The building where Shen Yi lived was in the depths of the community. The two walked away for a long time without saying a word and finally came downstairs, with some lights coming out of the building.
Shen Yiyou turned around and looked up at Li Shu and said, “I’m home.” He returned the coat to Li Shu again, and said, “Thank you very much today.”
After saying goodbye, Shen Yiyou walked into the building, took a few steps, and Li Shu called his name behind.
“Shen Yiyou,” Li Shu said, “Can you give me a contact method.”
Shen Yiyou turned to look at him again without speaking.
Li Shu stood back straight under the steps, a bit uncomfortable, but steadily said Shen Yi: “My job is not in the city of S, but I have time to come next weekend … I can come here often.”
“If I come to S City, we–” Li Shu paused for a few seconds before saying, “can we meet?”
The light in the living room of the residents on the first floor was suddenly turned on. The dim light passed through the glass window and shone on Li Shu’s face. He wore glasses and looked at Shen Yiyou intently.
He made Shen Yiyou feel that this might be the closest thing this person could say.
Was it always like “Isn’t it so cold to wear so little”?
Shen Yiyou couldn’t help laughing, and asked Li Shu: “But why should we meet?”
Li Shu stood far away and looked at Shen Yiyou silently, liked a contestant who had nothing and wanted a prize and had to play hard.
Shen Yiyou thought he looked as if he could not answer this question, but he just wanted to meet with Shen Yiyou.
In the end, Shen Yiyou compromised and sighed and reported his mobile phone number to Li Shu, saying, “I can come out with you when I’m not busy.”
“Okay,” Li Shu seemed easy to be happy, with a slight smile in his eyes, he said to Shen Yi, “I will notify you when I arrive in S city.”
Shen Yiyou turned and entered the corridor. He went up to the third floor, opened the door, turned on the lights, and walked down to the bed. He just saw Li Shu turned around and walked back slowly, holding the mobile phone in his hand and the screen turned on.
After a few seconds, Shen Yiyou’s mobile phone vibrated, prompting a new message from a foreign number, and the other party said, “I’m Li Shu.”
Shen Yiyou saved Li Shu’s number, and before replying, Li Shu sent another message to him.
“Because I don’t feel comfortable without meeting you.”
Shen Yiyou took a mobile phone and looked at it for a long time before he figured out that Li Shu was answering his question just now. It was funny and inexplicable. He wondered why there were such strange people. He asked Li Shu: “Where is it uncomfortable?”
Li Shu quickly responded to him: “Chest tightness, dizziness, and rapid heartbeat.”
“…” Shen Yiyou was very helpless. “Then you should go to the hospital for an examination.”
Li Shu answered unquestionably, “I want to meet you.”
They sent another two or three text messages and said goodnight to each other.
Before falling asleep, Shen Yiyou’s mood didn’t actually get much better, but Li Shu diluted his unhappiness, and he no longer wanted to argue with his mother.
Even until the most unhappy moment before deciding to break up, Shen Yiyou recalled Li Shu’s messy performance that day and felt that even if he was re-elected, he would still choose to fall in love with Li Shu.
Maybe Li Shu’s amuse and damage were sold in bundles. You couldn’t buy it alone. Li Shu had always been Li Shu. He had never changed.
