Chapter 94: Proposal.
At the end of a ktv session, Yu Fan and Chen Jingshen were dragged into the original discussion group. After everyone sobered up, the group fell into a long silence, all too ashamed of themselves for that night.
The discussion group lit up with messages again one afternoon half a month later.
Wang Luan: It's going to be New Year's Eve in a week, so I'd like to say hello in advance, haha.
[Wu Cai: What kind of group is this? I quit.
Zhang Xianjing: [share video - brother hug ktv recording]]
Zuo Kuan!
Zuo Kuan: You weren't in the box at the time, were you? Who the hell recorded that video? How dare you spread it! Come out and die!
Wang Luan: Come out and die! ...... But Ms. Jing, your avatar is Ke Ting, isn't it Ke Ting? This is Ke Ting, isn't it? Her high school photo? Why did you draw a love heart on her head?
[Zhang Xianjing: None of your business.]
[Wang Luan: ......]
Zhu Xu: It's my fault, I couldn't control my emotions that night and kept dragging you guys to drink, I won't do it next time.
[Zhu Xu: This time it's for real, guys.]
Wang Luan: That's right, the next one is better. I've said it before, first love is for remembrance.
[Zhu Xu: Uh-huh. Speaking of which, did @schoolboy and his first love get it right?]
The three people in the group who know the truth: "......"
That night at the karaoke bar, the straight guys didn't realize anything was wrong. Zuo Kuan even pointed out Chen Jingshen in the lyrics about love in the song "Brothers Give Me a Hug", but everyone else was so drunk that they woke up and forgot all about that little detail.
Chen Jingshen finished the last line of code before picking up his cell phone to scroll through the messages. The top of his WeChat was quiet. Yu Fan's work was getting on track, and his schedule had been full for the past few months, with two shoots today alone, so naturally he was too busy to worry about his cell phone.
Chen Jingshen WeChat has two new messages at this time, one is the arrival notification, the other is the discussion group.
He tapped on the arrival notification and identified the pickup location before cutting away to reply.
[s: Uh-huh.]
[Zhu Xu: That's great! Married?
[S: No, soon.]
[Zhu Xu: Congratulations, remember to invite me to the banquet, I must go to rub the happy atmosphere].
[Zhu Xu: Why aren't the others talking? Let's go together when the time comes.]
......
Chen Jingshen didn't engage in the conversation anymore, threw his cell phone into his pocket, picked up his jacket and headed out.
Outside, a group of coworkers hanging on for dear life at work poked their heads out from behind their computer screens in unison.
Luo Liyang was stunned to see him, holding up his freshly brewed coffee and asking, "You're done? Are you off work?"
"Well, something's up. I ran the program a few times no problem, call back if anything happens." Chen Jingshen said, "I ordered afternoon tea for you guys, so I'll do it after I eat."
Everyone watched Chen Jingshen enter the elevator, and just as the elevator door closed, someone got down and wailed, "How can there be such a strong person? I've been working for more than half a year, and not a single day have I left work on time! Not a single day!"
"Who isn't?"
"This business is like this, no one can get to and from work normally, he has done a lot more work than you guys this year, and only today he got off work before dark, don't just see the big brother's side of the fish ah." Luo Liyang said, "Keep working, finish early and call it a day."
-
Yu Fan shoots today in a rented store, a small place with only one shed, but it's enough for him at the moment.
The client is one of Zhang Xianjing's little sisters, who seems to be a star preparing for her debut, and she has a great sense of camera work, so Yu Fan has been shooting for a long time without realizing it.
After taking a picture, Yu Fan raises his finger without lifting his head, "Lower the light."
The boy behind him whooped and immediately lowered his hands.
Then there was a flash of white light, accompanied by a click, Yu Fan looked down to check the photo and said to the girl in front of her, "It's done, take a look at it, no problem we're done for today, I'll send you the repaired film within a week."
The client confirms the original movie and leaves. Yu Fan is in front of the computer passing out files when a bottle of mineral water is handed over.
"Brother, a drink of water?"
The boy's name is Jiang Heng, and he's quite sunny. Yu Fan just recruited a temporary assistant, Wang Yue introduced to her cousin, said he wanted to take advantage of the university holidays to earn a little pocket money to buy what electronic equipment ...... the end of the year is not good to find a formal staff, Yu Fan is indeed a lack of miscellaneous, see a side of the feel good, temporarily recruited in two weeks, should be an emergency.
Yu Fan took the water and tilted his head to take a sip, while Jiang Heng eyed the side of his face, his eyes cautious and eager.
Cousin hadn't told him when she introduced him that his boss would be so handsome, and he'd been with Yu Fan for two weeks and realized that he was a very individualistic, cold-on-the-outside, hot-on-the-inside kind of guy.
All in all just ...... very charming.
"How much money are you short of buying that thing?" Yu Fan suddenly asked.
"Huh?" Jiang Heng froze for a moment before saying, "Thirteen thousand!"
"Keep your voice down." Yu Fan scratched to the next photo and lazily said, "I'll transfer you to WeChat later."
Jiang Heng: "Brother, we agreed on a salary of only 1,000 ......"
"The extra is a New Year's red packet." Yu Fan said, "After today's work you pack up, take your New Year's vacation, and you don't have to come back."
"Brother, you don't want me?"
"Say what? Aren't you going to school after New Year's?"
"I'll be here for another week after New Year's."
"No need, I contacted someone else." Yu Fan said.
"Then you let him come in a week late, and I'll do the rest of that week for free, brother, if you need it, you can have all my weekends from now on, I'll work for you for free!"
"?"
Yu Fan was puzzled: "Worked yourself silly?"
"It's not ......" Jiang Heng said offhandedly, "Brother, I just want to spend more time with you-"
Knock. A soft sound interrupted Jiang Heng's words, and he turned his head to see a tall, strange man standing in the doorway.
Jiang Heng's "Who are you looking for?" was barely out of his mouth when he heard the chairs backing up around him.
"What brings you here?" Yu Fan was slightly stunned. This was the first time Chen Jingshen had come to see him since he started working.
Chen Jingshen said, "Take you back."
"Said no, it's only ten minutes back here on the bus."
Jiang Heng stared at them in disbelief as he realized that Yu Fan was saying that, but his expression was noticeably more animated.
"Boss, do you ...... know each other?" Jiang Heng asked.
"Uh-huh." Yu Fan turned off the computer, went forward and grabbed Chen Jingshen's coat, brought the person inside, walked two steps before remembering something, turned back and said, "You go back, there's nothing more to do today."
In the lounge, Yu Fan looks down and collects his things, "Why didn't you tell me before you came."
"Said you could see it?"
"Turn it on so the assistant can hear."
"You won't look even if you listen." Chen Jingshen's voice was faint, "The one just now is the assistant mentioned before?"
"Well, but it's leaving after the first of the year, I just got an experienced one. I'm good to go ......" Yu Fan looked up as she picked up her coat, her voice suddenly stopping.
Chen Jingshen was standing against the wall, standing very close to him, and Yu Fan looked into his eyes as soon as he raised his head.
Yu Fan paused for a few seconds, then frowned, "Chen Jingshen, don't look at me like that."
"How do I look at you." Chen Jingshen said.
"......"
It was hard for Yu Fan to explain. He stared at Chen Jingshen's dark eyes and slightly dry-looking lips, feeling that he had recently gone back to life a bit.
Go back to the time when just one look at Chen Jingshen gave me the urge.
-
Jiang Heng hesitated outside for a long time, still a bit reluctant to leave. He scratched his hair and decided to talk to Yu Fan again.
Because of the entanglement, his steps were gentle, while making drafts in his mind, he moved to the lounge, and when he looked up, he immediately froze in place, forgetting all the words he had just organized.
Inside the lounge, his boss, who usually always had a cold face to people, had her back to him and was grabbing a man by the collar and was kissing him.
The shock of the scene was too great for Jiang Heng's brain to return, and the man suddenly raised his eyelids and looked toward him.
The pair of black lacquered eyes looked straight and sharp at him, Jiang Heng froze there, only in the next second, the other party withdrew his eyes and continued to lower his eyes, quietly and meekly kissing Yu Fan.
-
Yu Fan skimmed his face with the last vestige of sanity, if he did something with Chen Jingshen here, he wouldn't be able to look at this place straight from now on.
Back in the car, Yu Fan transferred the money to Jiang Heng, who he thought would say a few more words, but he didn't expect the other party to pick up quickly, and returned a "thank you" and nothing more.
It's also good to save your energy.
Chen Jingshen put his fingers on the steering wheel and asked him, "Do you want to buy fruit?"
"Don't buy it, go straight back." Yu Fan lifted his head to look out the window, his ears all red, "Drive faster, Chen Jingshen. me. I."
Arriving home without even taking off their coats, the two touched down from the foyer all the way to the bathroom, clothes falling off randomly off and on. In between they were basically pressed together, either on their hands, faces, or lips.
Yu Fan was kissed to the point of confusion, he sat on the spacious washstand and lowered his head to kiss Chen Jingshen. The two feet hanging open on Chen Jingshen's side were idle and unconsciously rubbed against Chen Jingshen's pants.
Two clicks.
Three down.
Yu Fan grabbed Chen Jingshen's chin and moved the man away, ordering disgruntledly, "Chen Jingshen, take out the things in your pockets, it's hurting your feet."
"......"
Chen Jingshen kind of regretted holding the person up here. He was silent for two seconds and turned around, "Half a minute, I'll put it outside."
"?"
Chen Jingshen didn't make it and was pulled back by someone grabbing his clothes. His boyfriend's other hand skillfully reached into his pants and took out what was inside.
Yu Fan stared at the object in his hand for a few seconds before asking, "What's this?"
Chen Jingshen The clothes were still in his hands, their faces were close together, their hair intertwined.
Chen Jingshen studied him, his tone rising lazily, "A ring box?"
"What for?"
"Load the ring?"
"You wear a ring?"
"Don't bring it, do you?"
"Then what did you buy it for?"
"Proposal?"
"......"
Seeing Yu Fan's entire red face suddenly freeze, Chen Jingshen couldn't hold back and pecked him on the lips while he was frozen.
"Propose to who?" Yu Fan found her voice.
"Yu Fan. Do you know him?"
"......"
Yu Fan snapped back to his senses, feeling overly stupid for asking. He swallowed and asked dumbly, "When did you buy it, Chen Jingshen."
"I ordered it last month, it just arrived today, and I hadn't thought about how to beg." Chen Jingshen said, "Should I get down on one knee now."
"No need."
Yu Fan takes out the ring and puts it on just right. He said, "You owe yours, I'll pay it back soon."
Then he cupped Chen Jingshen's face and prepared to continue, kissing it before raising his head again.
"Wait, Chen Jingshen." Yu Fan frowned, "If we get married, who's marrying who?"
Chen Jingshen : "Does it matter?"
"Kind of."
Chen Jingshen inclined his face to kiss over and said vaguely, "Then you marry me."
They spent nearly half an hour on the wet, slippery vanity, Yu Fan's back cold against the counter and wall.
After showering and getting back into bed, Yu Fan stares at the ceiling as the bed slams down around him.
Chen Jingshen Usually in front of other people are a clear mind cold face, but some time, where no one sees ......
Yu Fan squinted in a trance of suffocation, but could see nothing.
The button rumbled in mid-air for a long time, and Yu Fan's voice mumbled into fragments as he spoke, "Chen Jingshen ......"
"Uh-huh." The tip of her nose was rubbed by her lips, and Chen Jingshen's voice was low and very soft in his ear, "Shaking so hard, husband."
"......"
Yu Fan closed his eyes and reached out to cover Chen Jingshen's mouth before being grabbed and gathered into his palm.
-
Yu Fan lay under the covers, so tired that his soul was already wandering in the air, and he was so sore that he didn't want to move. Until Chen Jingshen came back from washing, he didn't make a move.
Yu Fan reaches out to break the ring on his hand, then is held down by Chen Jingshen to prevent him from pulling it out, and is even kissed by Chen Jingshen as he lowers his head.
"Chen Jingshen, kill you."
"Next time." Chen Jingshen ruffled his hair.
Yu Fan closed his eyes, and after a while, he spoke deliriously again, "Chen Jingshen, what do we need to bring to get married abroad? Identity card ...... or household registration book ...... Where are we going?"
"Depends on where you like the view."
After a long time, Yu Fan gave a slow "hmmm", not sure if he heard it or not.
-
The following day, the weekend.
Woken up by the neighbor's dog, Zhu Xu slowly opens his eyes, picks up his phone and prepares to stay in bed under the covers.
He casually brushed the circle of friends, and actually brushed out Yu Fan, who hadn't posted a single dynamic for a hundred years.
[-: Married [picture]]
In the picture, Yu Fan is holding someone's finger and the ring is glittering on his finger.
Zhu Xu bounced out of bed with a "Holy shit" sound! Taking screenshots, sending them out to the group, typing like lightning--
[Zhu Xu]: Holy shit! I'm fucked! Did you guys see the circle of friends! Yu Fan got married! Yu Fan is married! Who did he marry? I haven't heard him mention it before!
The group was as quiet as a chicken, even Wang Luan and Zuo Kuan, who were usually the most supportive, didn't come out to talk to him.
Zhu Xu frowned in wonder and tried @ing the whole staff, still no response.
Zhu Xu was a bit skeptical that he was still in a dream. He frowned and crumpled his eyebrows, laying back under the covers again, remembering that he had just been so excited that he had forgotten to click the like.
Zhu Xu rushed back to support his good friend!
As a result, he cuts back to his friends and another dynamic pops up-
[s: married [picture]]
[Zhu Xu]: Holy shit! I'm grass! Look at the circle of friends! The school bully got married too! The school bully got married! Yesterday we were just talking about it and today we got married! What a coincidence that he and Yu Fan got married at the same time! They both got married at the same time!
[Zhu Xu:?]
[Zhu Xu: ????]
Zhu Xu: Wait? Aren't they posting the same picture?
[Zhu Xu: ......?]
[Zhu Xu: ............????]
