Lin Yi’s words made Wu Feiyue stop in his tracks and fall silent for a few seconds.
“Let’s go. This is not the place to talk.”
Lin Yi chuckled and quickly caught up to Wu Feiyue. “Let’s find a place to eat. I’m hungry.”
Wu Feiyue brought Lin Yi to a small restaurant outside.
The restaurant was a small bungalow with six tables and a stove for heating.
This kind of lifestyle made Lin Yi feel closer to Wu Feiyue.
This was because life in the orphanage was like this when they were young.
When he was young, he had been beaten by Wang Cuiping because he had played with fire by the stove.
The room was very warm. Lin Yi took off his down jacket while Wu Feiyue took off his military coat.
Lin Yi was wearing a half-sleeved Kenzo jacket which cost more than 50,000 yuan.
On the other hand, Wu Feiyue was wearing a navy blue sweater. However, because he had not washed it for a long time, it had turned black
When he saw Lin Yi, Wu Feiyue avoided his gaze and didn’t say anything for a long time. He even stuttered before speaking.
‘Well, life’s been pretty good for you these past few years, right?’
“It’s been good. I made some money.”
“Everything is fine as long as we earn money.” Wu Feiyue smiled honestly. “Our parents are doing good too, right?’
“They’re all fine. Don’t worry about them.” “That’s good.” Wu Feiyue nodded and said.
‘What do you want to eat? Order it. I’ll treat you.”
“Just give me a bowl of noodles and some garlic.”
“We’re already here. Why do you want to settle for eating normal noodles? Just order something good.” Wu Feiyue said. “Their pork shoulder is delicious. I’ll get one for you.”
“No, noodles will do. That’s my favorite.”
Wu Feiyue waved his hand. “Big Sis, give me two bowls of braised noodles.”
“Two more glasses ofwhite wine,” Lin Yi added.
“Sure thing.”
“I’m not drinking. I still have to work in the afternoon,” Wu Feiyue said.
“Stop working, come back with me.” Lin Yi said. “It’s been so many years. Although I don’t say it, I miss you a lot.”
“I don’t have the face to go back.” Wu Feiyue said.
“I fought every day and even gave our mother a heart attack from anger. If I was her biological son, it would be fine, but I’m just adopted. Sigh.
Wu Feiyue let out a long sigh. His eyes were a little moist. “I’m already satisfied that you can still call me brother. I don’t have the face to go back.”
Not long after, the noodles and white wine were served. Lin Yi pushed a cup to Wu Feiyue and peeled a few garlic for him.
‘When I fought with others when I was young, didn’t you always stand up for me? However, I’m not too sure how serious the injuries were. When I came back during the holidays to ask our mother about this, she didn’t tell me either. She scolded you and cried at the same time, but she didn’t tell me what happened. ”
“At that time, you were in your first year of university. Little Yue was in her third year of high school. One day, she told our mother that there were a few hooligans who were always waiting for her at the school gate. After that, I went over and saw the hooligans that Little Yue mentioned. There were four people opposite me. I didn’t fight them, I just stabbed one of them with a knife.” Wu Feiyue swirled his wine glass and said.
“But I was unlucky. The kid I stabbed came from a family which has both power and influence in Yangcheng. Coupled with the fact that our family lacks both, it resulted in me being arrested.”
“Little Yue didn’t tell me about this.”
“I was the one who didn’t allow her to say it.” Wu Feiyue said.
“After I came out, that family came looking for me again. I really had no choice, so I asked the disciplinary officer at that time to find me a job in Yanjing. In short, I was too ashamed to go back.”
“Don’t drink by yourself. Let’s have a drink together.’
“Come, cheers.”
During the toast, when their glasses touched, Wu Feiyue pressed his glass down, and Lin Yi did the same, lowering his glass and clinking it against Wu Feiyue’s.
“This wine is really strong,” Lin Yi said with a grimace.
“This wine won’t do. It’s far from what you guys should be drinking.” “Then come back with me. Let’s have a reunion. I’ll treat you to Maotai.”
“With my stomach, I can’t enjoy that. It’s a waste to drink it.”
“But you still have to come with me. If you don’t come back with me, I’ll take you away by force.”
“With the way my life has turned out, how can I go back? You’re the only one who still treats me as a human.” Wu Feiyue’s eyes turned red when he spoke of the emotional part. “In today’s society, people who have been in prison don’t get treated as human anymore after they come out.”
Lin Yi spat out a mouthful of noodles and said in a muffled voice,
“Every child in the orphanage counts. If anyone dares to say anything to you, I’ll definitely slap them.’
‘You’re still as bad-tempered as you were when you were young. If you had gone to university in Yangcheng back then, the two of us would probably have been thrown into prison together.” “Haha, that’s really possible. ‘
The meal of noodles took a long time.
In the beginning, Wu Feiyue was uneasy, but later on, he raised his glass repeatedly.
Lin Yi and Wu Feiyue’s relationship had always been good.
However, after he went into prison, there was less contact between the two of them, and this relationship was kept in the bottom of their hearts.
‘We’re almost done eating. Hurry up and pack up. Come back to Yangcheng with me.”
“Sure. ‘
Wu Feiyue was still a little conflicted in his heart, but he knew Lin Yi’s temper. The latter was well known for being a jerk.
If he did not follow him, he would definitely be forcefully pulled back.
He might as well go back and willingly take a look.
After so many years, everyone would miss home. “I’ll go back and collect my salary. Then we’ll leave.”
“Let’s go. I’ll go with you.”
In the end, it was Wu Feiyue who paid for the meal, while Lin Yi didn’t fight with him.
With his brother here, the elder brother would naturally not let him foot the bill.
After dinner, the two of them returned to the construction site. They felt that the sunlight outside was much brighter than before.
The office of the construction site was located at an small building not far from the construction site.
After Wu Feiyue went up into the office, Lin Yi waited downstairs, holding his phone and chatting with Ji Qing to pass the time.
However, after chatting for a while, he vaguely heard a commotion coming from upstairs. It seemed like there was a conflict over money. Lin Yi put his phone back into his pocket and walked upstairs.
The voices inside gradually became clearer.
“If you’re leaving before you’re done, how can I give you money?”
‘When we first came here to work, didn’t we say that our salary would be calculated based on the days we worked? Why are you changing your mind now?” Wu Feiyue argued.
“I don’t know anything about that. If you have any questions, you can look for the project manager from before. Anyway, I’m giving you a monthly salary. If you can’t finish this month, you won’t get a single cent. ‘
“Then you’re being too unreasonable. I’ve been working for twenty-six days and it’s almost a month. What right do you have not to pay me?”
“That’s the rule, but I think you’re quite pitiful, so I’ll give you five hundred yuan as penance. Hurry up and leave.”
“500 yuan is the price for a day. Did you deduct the rest of my salary?!’
“Stop trying to reason with me. If you can do your job, just do it. If you can’t, get lost. I’ve already done my best by giving you 500 yuan. Don’t be so shameless.’
Whoosh!
Lin Yi kicked the door open. “You’re f*cking awesome.. Who do you think you are talking to?’
