Rebirth of the sky-high broker

Chapter 133

"What's wrong?" He hurriedly put down the kitchen knife, worried that he might accidentally hurt him.

Li Jin shook his head and said, "It's okay, Mr. Deng asked me to urge you, saying that it hasn't healed after so long, so don't be lazy."

Li Yiheng frowned slightly, not knowing what his uncle was planning.

"How are you chatting?" Li Yiheng asked.

"Not bad." Li Jin shrugged, "We can still talk."

Then why do I see you... not very interested.

Li Yiheng swallowed this sentence, picked up the kitchen knife again, propped up his elbows, and pushed him away: "Stay here with me for a while."

Li Jin responded and asked, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

Li Jin is a culinary idiot, there is nothing he can do to help, as long as he doesn't make trouble.But Li Yiheng looked at his expression, and knew that he would not find something to do, as he was afraid that he would feel uncomfortable, so he said, "Help me see if the meat is done soaking."

Li Jin nodded, turned on the tap to wash his hands, then grabbed the meat slices from the bowl, and saw how tasty they were one by one.Although he looked serious, Li Yiheng always felt that he seemed to have something in his heart, a little gloomy.

"I'm sorry," he said.

Li Jin froze for a moment, then raised his head, showing a comforting smile: "Why are you apologizing, I'm fine."

Li Yiheng didn't answer, just looked at him.

Li Jin clicked his tongue and smiled helplessly: "I understand, in your position, who do you like, as long as he has a clean background and someone can handle it, no one dares to say anything. But Mr. Deng, as your elder, inevitably has to consider More. Mr. Deng will naturally check my background, and he will have to see for himself if I can get it.” He paused, “That’s fine, it’s better than him making something behind my back to make me overwhelmed. The test is strong."

Li Yiheng narrowed his eyes: "What kind of test will make you overwhelmed?"

"I can't tell." Li Jin deliberately annoyed him, "Maybe write me a check for 1000 million, and I'll immediately agree to let you down without blinking an eye."

Li Yiheng sighed, "I'm worth 1000 million."

"Less is fine." Li Jin reminded, "But you have to pay in cash."

Li Yiheng was completely at a loss.

Li Jin laughed so hard that his shoulders twitched, he threw the meat in his hand back into the glass bowl, and said, "I won't help you anymore, I can't handle it well."

Li Yiheng felt relieved: "Well, just watch."

Li Jin squinted at him, rinsed his hands, turned around and leaned against the cooking table, and said slowly, "I'm not angry, neither yours nor Mr. Deng's. I just... didn't expect it."

Li Yiheng concentrated on putting the chopped vegetables aside without raising his head: "I didn't expect anything?"

I didn't wait for a text for a long time.

He straightened up suspiciously, beside Li Jin, his eyes were fixed, staring at his toes, fascinated.

Didn't expect anything?

Li Jin thought, I didn't expect you to have such a deep affection for Ke Yuan that you would seriously mention his only partner in this life to your relatives.

It's not that Mr. Deng has a bad memory, he just knows how much you love Ke Yuan, and he's afraid that I'll get pissed and be awkward with you in the future, so he's just probing like this.

But how can I tell you that I don't care about the past between you and Ke Yuan, because Ke Yuan is me, and I am Ke Yuan.

The more I understand how you love him, the more I feel ashamed of you, the more I can't hide it anymore, I want to confess it to you immediately, so that you will no longer feel regretful.

But what shall I tell you?

Such a thing, I am afraid that no one will believe it if I tell it to anyone.

Li Jin pursed his lips and looked up at him: "Li Yiheng, I..."

Suddenly, Li Yiheng turned around and hugged him.

His hands were not very clean, and he didn't dare to hug him, which made the hug not as strong as before, but the gentleness and warmth would never change.Li Jin leaned on Li Yiheng's chest, stretched out his left arm, and gently wrapped it around his waist.

"Li Yiheng," Li Jin said after a long time, "I just teased you, I won't leave you no matter how much money you give me, really."

Li Yiheng raised the corners of his lips and smiled softly.

"I know, fool."

After taking a nap in the afternoon, Mr. Deng invited them to drink afternoon tea in the sun room on the roof of the third floor.After chatting for a long time in the morning, Elder Deng was already very relieved of Li Jin, and stopped probing Li Jin, but became closer.The three of them sat on rattan chairs, and the warm sun made them feel comfortable.Mr. Deng asked his servants to bring the photo album, flipped through the old photos and told Li Jin the story of his youth.Li Yiheng was tired of hearing these stories, but it was the first time for Li Jin to listen to them with gusto.

I came across an old yellowed photo by chance. In the photo, it was vaguely old Deng when he was young, and he held a two or three-year-old boy in his arms, wearing a pretentious suit, with an impatient expression on his face. Open, beautiful and delicate, like a little girl.Mr. Deng pulled out the photo with shaking hands, handed it to Li Jin, and asked with a smile, "Who do you think this child is?"

Li Jin pinched the photo to look at Li Yiheng, and smiled while looking at him: "I never thought you were so good-looking when you were young. How did you grow up?"

In fact, it's not really a big deal, it's just that the older Li Yiheng grows up, the father's genes in his appearance become more obvious, and the masculine outline becomes more prominent.

It's still pretty--Li Jin tut-tsk commented--this embarrassed look looks even better.

Elder Deng clapped his hands and said with a smile: "When he was a child, he was a very eccentric child. There was nothing he dared to do. I often told his father that this child was so skinny, and he couldn't control it when he grew up. Tell me, how did you become what you are now?"

Li Yiheng doesn't have the ability to entertain relatives with colorful clothes, but it doesn't hurt to sacrifice his own face to make the old man smile.He let Mr. Deng laugh at himself, took the photo from Li Jin, and said helplessly, "How old am I at this time? I forgot."

Mr. Deng told the story behind this photo.Li Jin listened with great interest, and halfway through hearing it, he naturally put a hand on Li Yiheng's.Li Yiheng was not surprised, he pulled it over and held it logically.This action seemed to have been performed thousands of times, and it was as natural as breathing air. Mr. Deng's expression remained unchanged, but his heart gradually became clear.

Dinner is a variety of dishes carefully prepared by chef Deng Zhai.Elder Deng was in good spirits. After chatting with Li Jin all day, he didn't feel tired, but became more energetic.He explained that tomorrow was New Year's Eve, and invited Li Jin to stay for the New Year, and asked him what kind of dumplings he likes to eat, and told the kitchen to make dumplings.Li Jin was moved and emotional when he heard it, and hurriedly agreed.When he came to Hong Kong this time, he thought that he would spend a year alone, but now he has a lover and elders who love and care by his side, and he just feels the warmest and nothing more.

After dinner, the three of them watched TV together in the living room.Mr. Deng likes the evening shows on Jade Channel, they are noisy and lively.Li Jin didn't enjoy watching it very much. Cantonese is not his mother tongue after all, especially when he speaks it fast, twittering like singing a lullaby.He couldn't sleep well for two consecutive nights, his eyes were fixed on the TV screen, and after a while he felt sleepy, and gradually, he fell asleep leaning on Li Yiheng's shoulder.

Li Yiheng didn't dare to move his shoulders immediately.

He asked the housekeeper to bring a blanket over, carefully placed it on Li Jin's body, and then moved his body a little so that Li Jin could sleep more comfortably.After finishing this set of movements, he raised his head and met Mr. Deng's scrutinizing gaze.

That gaze was extremely sharp, as if it had a substance, it could cut open Li Yiheng's heart and look straight into his heart.

Li Yiheng raised the corners of his lips, thinking, Uncle Shi pretended to be a Maitreya Buddha for a day, and finally got tired of pretending.

"It's not Ke Yuan?" Deng Lao tuned the voice of the small TV and sneered.

Li Yiheng responded, "No."

"What's going on?" Elder Deng asked, "I didn't understand on the phone, tell me now, what's going on?"

Mr. Deng knew about Ke Yuan's accidental death.He was extremely worried about Li Yiheng's mental state, and even asked him to come to Hong Kong to live for a while to relax.Who would have thought that in just half a year, Li Yiheng would have a new love, and... still have such an affectionate look.

Elder Deng felt that either the child he had grown up with had changed his gender, or Li Jin was just a male vixen who took advantage of it.

He knew Li Yiheng's temper, but Li Jin—he had been in contact with him all day, and he had to admit that he was indeed a good boy.

That is how the matter?

Mr. Deng was completely at a loss. He deeply felt that the young man's feelings were really confusing, and there was no way to make the older generation feel anxious.

However, Li Yiheng still didn't understand the hard work of the elders, and he seemed unwilling to talk more, and wrote lightly: "I like Li Jin very much, so we are together."

"What about Ke Yuan?" Mr. Deng really wanted to give him a stick, "Didn't you like him for ten years? Once he's gone, you forget about it?"

"I haven't forgotten." Li Yiheng lowered his head, his expression was a little tired, and in the shadow of the light, the eyes gazing at Li Jin were as gentle and touching as ever, "Ke Yuan... Li Jin... are actually the same."

"What do you mean?" Elder Deng didn't understand.

Li Yiheng smiled, gently took Li Jin's hand and held it in his palm.The eyelashes of the person in front of him trembled twice, as if he was awakened by this movement, but it was only for a moment, and he immediately found a more comfortable position on his shoulder, and plunged into the dark dreamland.

Li Yiheng looked at him quietly, and there was a small hole in his heart, which was filled with sweet honey under such gaze.

"Ke Yuan, or Li Jin?" His voice was very soft, as if he was just talking to himself, "It doesn't matter, as long as he can stay by my side like this is enough."

Elder Deng frowned, wanting to speak, but didn't know where to start.

"Uncle Shi," Li Yiheng suddenly raised his head, his tone was very serious, "Whether you think he is good or not, I have decided to be with him forever. So, I hope you will stop testing him on your own and make him feel bad. Comfortable. We will become a family in the future, so it’s not good to start like this.”

Li Yiheng has a gentle temper, he gets along with this uncle in daily life, and he seldom talks seriously to him. The expression on his face at this moment surprised Boss Deng.He vaguely remembered that the last time Li Yiheng had such an attitude was because of Ke Yuan.

Something condensed in his heart, but it was just vague and unclear.Mr. Deng thought and thought, but couldn't think clearly, so he said: "Okay, okay, I'm convinced. You child, it's not for you that I worked so hard. Your parents left early and left you to me. Your uncle, don't you want to take care of you..."

What followed was a half-hour-long review of the past with a focus on the present and the future.

Li Yiheng put his arms around Li Jin and began to enter the old monk's meditation mode of turning a deaf ear.
