【Lin Xiao Extra-15】

Chen Xiao was in a heavy rain and sneezed wildly. His mind was already drowsy. When he heard what Chen Qianlin said, he couldn't believe it for a moment - is it possible for a person as cold as Chen Qianlin to be with him for the rest of his life?

"Although my brother has done something that makes you sad, have you ever lie to you since he was a child?" Chen Qianlin asked immediately.

"..." The answer is obvious, and Chen Qianlin never despises lying.

"So, believe me again in the end, okay?" Chen Qianlin's calm voice was like a reassurance. Some of the defenses that Chen Xiao finally stood up completely collapsed in the sentence "Believe me once in the end".

After so many years of getting along, he knows Chen Qianlin's character very well.

Chen Qianlin never lie. If he doesn't like it, he doesn't like it. At that time, Chen Qianlin might really not realize that he likes him. But now, since Chen Qianlin has spoken up and said that he wants to be with him, he will last forever for a long time. At least at this moment, Chen Qianlin really thinks that way, because Chen Qianlin has no need to lie to him at all.

Chen Xiao left decisively before because he was afraid that Chen Qianlin would find it fun on a whim, so he changed his mind a few days later. But now, what Chen Qianlin said is a very heavy word-

lifetime.

A person's life is too long and there are countless changes. No one can predict what will happen in the future. But at the moment when he says "life", at least the other person really loves you and wants to be with you for a long time.

Chen Xiao was confused in his heart, not knowing whether he would agree to Chen Qianlin's confession.

Chen Qianlin looked at his younger brother's expression and whispered: "It's okay, I won't force you to answer me immediately. It's still a long time, so we can take it slowly." He didn't continue the topic and stood up and said: "Are you hungry? I'll go to the kitchen to get some food."

He turned into the kitchen with the ingredients he bought from his boss, rolled up his sleeves and started cooking.

When my parents were not at home, my brothers spent most of their time eating outside. But Chen Qianlin actually knows how to cook, and he is very particular about cooking. He follows the recipe and the taste is naturally not bad. The cut dishes are as neat as a machine cut. Once, I fry a shredded potato, but each one seems to have been measured with a ruler.

Chen Qianlin's rigor is fully reflected in cooking. Chen Xiao laughed at his brother when he was a child and said that watching him cook was like watching a robot processing food.

But now, there is a heavy rain outside the window, and occasionally there is a rumbling thunder. The man's hair is wet and stuck to his ears. He is wearing the loose clothes he has asked him, lowering his head and dealing with food expressionlessly... The kitchen lights are very soft, and his face is still cold, but inexplicably, there is a hint of warmth on his body.

It is a kind of warmth of "the fireworks in the world".

It was like a god who was high above, floating in the clouds and looking down at the world, but at this moment it fell to the ground.

He was preparing supper for the person he cherished the most. The cooking process was very complicated, but he enjoyed it and looked very serious.

Chen Xiao stared at Chen Qianlin's busy back in the kitchen, and his heart was so sore and awkward. He had loved his brother for so many years, and his feelings had long been deeply rooted. He really wanted to let go completely, but what if what his brother said was true? Should he bet again?

If he wins, he will be able to get the company of his favorite person for the rest of his life. If he loses? At worst, he will be the same as before. If he falls hard in the same place, it will not be worse than now, right?

Chen Xiao couldn't help but shake his heart. His life was so long. According to the average age of 100 people now, he still had seventy years to be with Chen Qianlin. This was really tempting. He wanted to give it a try. After all, all he had to do this gamble was nodding, but what Chen Qianlin paid for was his promise to be with him for the rest of his life.

It is said that people who fall twice in the same place are idiots, but if they are sure to pass the level for the third time and get the best ending, then the stupid ones they made in the first two times will seem less important, right?

Chen Xiao thought in a daze. He wanted to agree, but it was not easy to agree immediately. His current feeling was like a random lottery but won the special prize - very unreal.

I don’t know how long it took, but Chen Qianlin cooked the dishes and brought them out and asked him to go for a meal.

There was a bowl of mushroom soup, two plates of green vegetables, and fried steak on the table. The exquisite side dishes with a full range of colors, fragrance and flavor were neatly placed in the white porcelain plate, making people feel greatly attracted to their appetite.

Chen Xiao was indeed very hungry and sat down at the dining table without hesitation.

While eating, I suddenly heard Chen Qianlin ask: "Under normal circumstances, if you like someone, when you eat together, would you pick up something you like to eat to the other party and show your concern?"

Chen Xiao was stunned and subconsciously replied: "Probably so."

Then, Chen Qianlin looked at him, suddenly put a piece of beef in his bowl, and said lightly: "Eat more, you have lost weight recently."

Chen Xiao: “…………”

He was talking about a statement without any emotional ups and downs, but this action of picking up food made Chen Xiao's heartbeat suddenly miss half a beat.

Chen Qianlin never picks up food for people at the dinner table. He believes that people have their own hands, and it is not that children can’t hold chopsticks. The behavior of picking up food is very naive. But what is going on today? He asked with a serious look on his face, "Will you pick up food for the other person if you like someone?" After asking, he picked up chopsticks for himself?

Your expression is weird enough!

Chen Xiao understood what Chen Qianlin meant and looked at the meat in the bowl and felt complicated.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Qianlin picked up all kinds of dishes and chopsticks into his bowl: "Try it."

Looking at the food quickly piled up in the bowl, Chen Xiao's cheeks became hot, and even his heart was warm.

In this meal, Chen Qianlin directly replaced Chen Xiao's "chopsticks". It seemed as if Chen Xiao suddenly lost his hands. He picked up the dishes into his younger brother's bowl bit by bit, watched his younger brother lower his head and ate them, and then picked up new ones, which continued to flow.

Chen Xiao didn't have to stretch out his chopsticks to pick up food throughout the whole process, he just ate the food in the bowl.

This feeling of being "popular" by his brother made Chen Xiao's heart tremble. He tried his best to calm his emotions, so he made himself difficult to finish the rice in the bowl, put down his chopsticks and said, "I'm full."

Chen Qianlin asked: "I made it according to the recipe, are you used to it?"

Chen Xiao looked embarrassed: "It's delicious."

Chen Qianlin nodded with satisfaction and put the plates into the kitchen.

It was already eight o'clock in the evening and it was dark. Chen Qianlin walked to the window and looked at the heavy rain outside the window and frowned slightly. The heavy rain had been falling for a long time, and there seemed to be no sign of stopping. Chen Qianlin turned to Chen Xiao and said, "Can you stay with you tonight?"

Chen Xiao was stunned: "I only have a bed here."

Chen Qianlin said calmly: "I can sleep on the sofa."

Seeing Chen Xiao’s strange expression, Chen Qianlin added: “The boss can’t book a new room. If you go to find another B&B, the distance is too far. I slept on the sofa in the living room and won’t bother you.”

The crackling sound of rain outside reminded Chen Xiao of the current situation. The dark mountains were already very dangerous and the mountain roads were so slippery that Chen Qianlin could not find a new place to live in the rain. Chen Xiao had no choice but to nod and agree.

This wooden house has a two-story structure. His bedroom is upstairs, and Chen Qianlin sleeps in the living room downstairs, and still does not disturb each other.

The two brothers lived in the same room, and the room was very quiet. The sound of raindrops hitting the window was particularly clear. The two couldn't find the topic for a while, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward. Chen Xiao had to lower his head and pick up his brain and casually browse the news today.

As a result, as soon as I turned on the light brain, Tang Muzhou sent a series of messages: "Chen Xiao, I went to the alliance today and accidentally saw the retirement application form you submitted. No matter what the problem occurs between you and your master, the retirement option is really bad. You are escaping reality."

"Nirvana was created by you and Azhe. You can leave as soon as you say you want. Have you ever thought about him?"

"You know exactly how much he has paid for Nirvana. In the 11th season, he abstained from the team competition and what did netizens scold him for his abstaining in the individual competition? But he never minds his gains and losses. Because he is responsible to Yu Ke and Qin Xuan and other teammates, and to you, a good buddy."

"But what about you? Do you still have a little sense of responsibility for Nirvana Club? You are not only the founder of Nirvana, but also the biggest shareholder. You, the core player, just quit. Other clubs will target Nirvana wildly. Next season, Nirvana may not even be able to enter the playoffs. For clubs in the rising period, this will be the heaviest blow. Have you ever thought about it?"

"What problems cannot be solved well? We have to use retirement to escape?"

Tang Muzhou is usually elegant in speaking and doing things. It is rare to see him making so many words at once to reason with others. This time he is obviously very angry.

Chen Xiao didn't know how to explain, and the choice of retirement was indeed not very responsible to his teammates. But personally, he won the third place in the singles, doubles and team championships, and has realized his dream for many years, and he has no regrets. As for the team, he found a successor before leaving. The newcomer was talented and could quickly keep up with the rhythm of his teammates, and his impact on Nirvana has been minimized.

He was actually very sad to make the decision to retire. He couldn't bear to leave Nirvana, Azhe, Xiao Ke, Qin Xuan and other teammates who grew up with him, Chi Qing, Yingying, and Fatty whom he personally recruited, and also couldn't bear to leave the games he liked for so many years.

Nirvana is like a child he raised with one hand, and abandoning Nirvana is like digging out a piece of flesh in his heart.

However, if anyone else, he would see that he had a crush on for many years every day and had clearly rejected his partner twice, the same company, the same department, and the other party could appear in front of you at all times. He is still your direct superior and will give various guidance to your work. His existence will repeatedly remind you of your stupidity and embarrassment...

Who can withstand such torture? Isn’t the best way to do it is to resign?

Although leaving was a bit willful, it was the best choice at that time.

Chen Qianlin found that his younger brother suddenly turned pale and glanced at Chen Xiao's brain. He didn't see what was written in the dense words, but once he scanned Tang Muzhou's name, he understood that Tang Muzhou must have known about Chen Xiao's retirement.

Chen Qianlin walked over and sat next to his younger brother, picked up his brain from his hand, and replied to Tang Muzhou: "This matter cannot be blamed entirely on Chen Xiao, and the master is also responsible. You can scold me as a coach, but I have not handled the conflicts with the team members well, forcing the team members to retire."

Tang Muzhou: “…………”

Swearing to Master? Let's forget it.

Tang Muzhou said, "Who dares to scold you? Since Master is with Chen Xiao, why not persuade him."

Chen Qianlin said: "I will solve the problem between Chen Xiao and I, so you can rest assured."

Tang Muzhou said: "Okay, I believe Master can handle it well."

Chen Qianlin ended the conversation, looked back at Chen Xiao, and said, "Actually, Xiao Tang is right. If you leave Nirvana, Nirvana will be difficult to play next season's game. We are equivalent to missing a tactical ace. Nirvana is targeted by all clubs, and the pressure will be very high. It is very likely that I can't even enter the playoffs. Fortunately, I have stopped your retirement application with the chairman, and the league has not yet approved it."

Chen Xiao was stunned: "What does it mean?"

Chen Qianlin said: "If you retire like this, if you lose the game next season, you will definitely regret it, blame yourself, and feel sorry for your teammates. I know you so much, Chen Xiao, you are obviously a very responsible person, you and Azhe and Xiao Ke have a deep relationship. The decision to retire is like breaking your arms. The saddest thing is always you--the brother asked the chairman to stop your retirement application form, but it was not submitted to the league meeting, and he just didn't want you to regret it."

Chen Xiao: “…………”

Chen Qianlin's words were really touching the nail on the head. On the day he left Nirvana, he was really uncomfortable. He didn't dare to look back at the team logo of Nirvana Club, which carries his dreams. There were so many lovely friends, and he was afraid that he would be reluctant to leave when he turned around.

Chen Qianlin said: "I will withdraw your retirement application and just pretend that nothing happened."

Chen Xiao looked embarrassed: "Retreat, isn't this too much fun?"

Chen Qianlin looked at his younger brother and said, "The reason why you retired is that your brother doesn't like you, which makes you feel embarrassed in front of me and don't want to see me again. But now, isn't this reason already solved?"

Chen Xiao was stunned for a moment, and realized what he meant, his cheeks felt hot.

Chen Qianlin looked at his red ears and his eyes couldn't help but be gentle: "Go to rest early, let's talk about anything tomorrow."

Chen Xiao nodded and turned around and walked back to the bedroom upstairs.

Chen Qianlin immediately sent a message to the alliance: "I have persuaded Chen Xiao. If you apply for retirement, please ask the chairman to return it."

The chairman said with a headache: "Don't be joking about retirement! As a professional player, you should respect the Star Card League and professional competitions, come and go, and go as you say, what do you think of the league?"

Chen Qianlin said sincerely: "What the Chairman said is. I apologize to the alliance for my brother's impulsive behavior and promise not to commit it again in the future."

The chairman smiled and said, "It's rare that you apologize on your own initiative. I just pretend that I didn't see this matter. Anyway, it would be less of an impact if I didn't hand it over. To be honest, I can't bear to leave even if Chen Xiao wants to leave!"

Chen Qianlin said: "Thank you, Chairman."

After the conversation ended, Chen Qianlin looked upstairs. Chen Xiao's bedroom had turned off the lights and obviously fell asleep. He knew this younger brother too well, and he was very loyal, so he would definitely be uncomfortable leaving Nirvana, so he ran out to travel around the world to relax.

Fortunately, all this will pass.

Chen Qianlin opened a folder in Guang's mind, which contained many sketches. He opened a blank drawing board, frowned and thought about something carefully. After a long time, he finally wrote on the drawing and drew a neat arc.
To be continued...
