Be afraid

Xiao Nian was aghast. Her cherry mouth, puckered up, "So whatever? He's the one who bumped into you."
"This gentleman, if you feel unwell, I suggest a trip to the hospital now." Being banged up is not something to be ignored. Even though it wasn't himself who was hurt. "Here's my card, feel free to call me if you have any problems." The hot gold card in the sunlight. Glittering.
Xia Bingyang reached out to take it, all because of the sincerity in his eyes, the feeling. It was too familiar.
Name de....
"You're a Namek?" Xia Bingyang raised her eyes uncertainly.
"Yes, I am." Strange, the first time someone had questioned their identity, and no, that look. And. The wrinkled brow and wrinkled forehead.
"Xia Bingyang!"
"It's me!" He cut in. The surprise was no less than his.
"It's really you! 。。。。 Wait. I'm so excited." A large palm settled back and forth over the heaving left breast. Namek felt a little out of his element.
"Hey, after all these years, you're still the same." Xia Bingyang couldn't help but lose his smile. The way he stroked his chest when he was excited was still as comical as ever.
Next. A silent high five. Hugs. The joy of a long-awaited reunion. Like a bright light breaking out. Shining in the two tall bodies.
What the hell is going on right now? They know each other!
No,.... Name de. It was a name that she seemed to have heard at some point.
"Nin, come here." A gentle voice. Awakening her in her contemplation.
"Let me introduce you. This is Namek. It's my best friend from back in the States." A broad smile that showed how he was feeling at the moment.
"Hello, I'm Lin Xiaonian," came the 180-degree change in attitude. The awkwardness of the previous argument had been turned into a clear breeze by the ear. It turned into a drift. Xiaonian also admired himself. It was amazing that he could change so quickly.
"Lin. Nin." Namek's smiling eyes gazed at her from the corners of his eyes, his tone slow.
Chestnut by his deliberate eyes, Lin Xiaonian pulled his lips away. She was about to speak. A string of images flashed through her head.
Finally, it became clear that. Everything that seemed ridiculous to the point of outrageousness.
"Hello, Mr. Name, I'm Lin Xiaonian from the marketing department." Standard workplace tone of voice. Plus a charming smile. Xiaonian secretly but mockingly mocked her own clumsiness.
"Haha. You're Lin Xiaonian who reported for duty today?" A cheerful laugh. Through the wind. Blowing far away.
A resourceful Xia Bingyang re-flipped the business card. It dawned on her.
Soft sunlight. Refracted long. Very long. Today, a good day....
----------
It's better than the noisy atmosphere outside. The office of the famous German is certainly a perfect place to talk. Close the door. Cut the phone line. The room is quiet and a little empty.
"When did you return to the country?"
"When did you return to the country?"
Almost simultaneously. The two men ask a question in silence.
Again, they looked at each other in silence and smiled.
"I've just returned to the country and I shouldn't be leaving for a while. What about you? Didn't you say you weren't coming back? Surprisingly, you are still the president of such a large company." It was Xia Bingyang's turn to speak first. Cold, hard eyes gazed at him.
"Yeah. Was saying that I didn't want to be back. But, still, it's been five years since I came back. Now think about it. Time has gone by so fast." Leaning back casually in his chair, Namek spoke carelessly.
"You've changed." A sudden phrase, laced with foolishness.
"Isn't that more handsome?" Namek's evil grin was obvious.
"But the level of narcissism hasn't changed at all, or rather, it's even greater than before." Xia Bingyang glared at him sidelong, and under his sharp charmed eyes, Namek smiled even more wickedly.
"Can't you just flatter me a little, Shasho." Still this rigid after years of absence. Sharp. The one layer that remained the same turned out to be just him.
"The car brakes are faulty, don't you know? Why are you so careless.!" Thinking of the accident that had just happened, Xia Bingyang's thick black eyebrows, had wrinkled into a knot.
"Oh, by the way, how are you hurt? OK,"
"I'm fine, just a little scrap of skin." A dismissive curl of his lip was an understatement.
"It seems that God is still kind to me, even if I have to die, I will still be accompanied on the Yellow Spring." The deep eyes narrowed into lines, as if they were smug, but also as if they were sarcastic.
"Don't worry, we have a long life, life has just begun, but I really had a scare." The fear of that heart pumping animal still lingers in Xia Bingyang's mind.
"What? Thought you'd die. Did you regret not confessing your love to her." Namek's deep dark eyes glared at him, hazy with laughter.
"She! Who?" He staggered.
"Who can it be?" Pointed Stone's jaws, outwards towards the crossbow.
Following the direction of the famous deity, a slender if delicate figure. Just passing by.
--- It's Lin Xiaonian.
"What did you say! We're brother and sister." The neck rose red. He appeared to be shy.
"Don't don't. Get excited. I'm just kidding." A large palm patted him on the back. Trying to restrain the urge to burst into laughter. Handsome face that had turned contorted.
Results.
"Puff 。。。。" Along with suppressed pleasure. Namek poured out in one go.
"I'm off," rising abruptly. He moved with grace.
Staying a minute longer would have been more of a fool's errand, albeit for many years, as well.
"Hey. There's so much I haven't asked you. Wait. How come you have a sister? Hey... You're really leaving." Joke's up, no way, so easily upset.
"I'll contact you tonight."
A solid back. Goes long. Leaving an intense gaze. As the distant figure. Stretching longer and longer.
"Remember to go to the hospital to get checked out,."
Namek's worried words come from behind itself. It radiated warmth. Xia Bingyang didn't look back. Instantly exits the room.
A wide smile flares in the wind on his angular face.
Intensely moving and reverberating with relief. Still sincere.
The clean dining room.
By the window, two handsome men. One as cold and handsome as frost. One as warm as the wind.
"That's unthinkable. Ice Ocean. Why do I feel like a fictional story." An exaggerated expression. Nade stared at him unconvincingly.
"And yes, I can't even believe the truth. Much less that you can accept it." A light sip of the bewitching red wine in the goblet. His expression was bland.
"That whatchamacallit segment of yours. It's also too 。。。。 It's too good." Couldn't really find a more appropriate word. Namek was surprisingly speechless.
"It's awesome, I really envy him." The sad face suddenly became thick with worry. Ice Ocean's thoughts began to curdle.
"Hey. Don't think so much about it. I can't believe it's already happened. Melancholy will only make everyone miserable." A friend's heart. He certainly understood. "Come on, drink. We won't get drunk today." Lifting the glass. Raise it towards him.
"Well, let the past go by as far as it will go." Raise your glass high. Clinked lightly against him, insinuating a clear, crisp clink.
It is time to finally let go of the tangled heart. Even if it is not easy to forget.
"That's right. The only thing to do now is to take good care of Nin. He'll be happy, too, when he springs."
Strange. I thought we were here to celebrate today. What. So bleak for each other.
The atmosphere was too mournful, too dull. Stuffy. A bit airless.
