Spirit Boss - 131. Infatuated with regret (2)
Jiang Junjie’s eyes moved slightly.
The person in front of him stood in the dark, wearing a large plaid shirt that he would never wear before. The fragrance of soap was faintly floating in the air, instead of the perfumes that represented taste and money in the past.
His expression was anxious, joyful, relieved, and there was a touch of fear that was hard to hide.
Jiang Junjie was a little at a loss.
He should know this person, but he seems to know only the body of this person.
“Junjie.” Tao Le shouted again. This time the tone was calmer, but God knew that the sweat on his hands was almost dripping off.
“Hello.” Jiang Junjie returned to his senses, nodded politely and quickly, and was about to pass by him.
“Junjie!” Tao Le subconsciously stretched out his hand, just blocking his waist. The soft touch of the sweater came from the palm of his hand, causing his heart to sway gently, and all the old days were uncontrollably turned from the depths of his memory.
The former Junjie also liked to wear sweaters the most, and he was afraid of itching. So he always likes to press him on the sofa, then put his hand under the sweater and scratch his ribs gently.
“Mr. Tao.”
Jiang Junjie’s cold voice pulled him from the paradise of memories back to the hell of reality. Tao Le’s hands tightened his waist subconsciously.
“Mr. Tao.” With the same three words, if it was a reminder just now, then it is completely a warning now.
Tao Le knew that if they retreat at this time, the distance between them would be further widened, so he didn’t retreat but moved forward: “Junjie. Let’s start again, and I promise that no matter what happens in the future, I will never leave you. Nothing can separate us anymore!”
Jiang Junjie slowly moved his gaze to his face, unfamiliar and alienated. “Mr. Tao.”
“Junjie!” He confessed without waiting for him to say anything hurtful, “I have already thought about all the future. Don’t you want to open a bookstore? We can open it together. You don’t like those ancient and modern Chinese and foreign Masterpieces? Let’s enter masterpieces. I like to read martial arts novels, and I can also enter a little together…”
“Mr. Tao!” Jiang Junjie yelled two softly before, seeing that he had no response, he had to increase the volume.
Tao Le stopped in a daze.
Jiang Junjie took a deep breath and said, “If I walked too hurriedly before and caused you a lot of misunderstandings, I am sorry.” His eyes were certain, and he said in an almost indifferent tone, “There may have been intersections between us. But that was once. From the moment I left the silver pavilion, we were already parallel. Of course, if Mr. Tao doesn’t mind, then we might be able to say hello to each other in the future. But it’s just that.”
“Junjie…” Tao Le lowered his hand, pressing a large rock against his chest, squeezing the pitiful bit of air in his chest. He felt that he could barely breathe, pressing his hands on his chest, and slowly bending down.
Jiang Junjie lifted his foot and left, without any attachment.
“Junjie. You said you love me.” This was Tao Le’s last courage and strength. After speaking, he felt that the whole soul floated out.
Jiang Junjie’s footsteps stopped again.
after a long time.
When Tao Le couldn’t help but want to see if he had gone for a long time, he finally spoke, “There is only one love, and if you miss it, you miss it.”
The sound of footsteps fades away gradually, and goes up the stairs step by step.
Tao Le softened one knee, half-kneeling on the ground, tears slipping from his eyes.
But he was smiling, “There is only one love…so I still love you.”
The sky on Thursday was gloomy.
Jiang Junjie went to work as usual.
Tao Le stood in front of the building in the same clothes as yesterday. Over the course of the night, his stubble grew out again, and in such a gloomy weather, he looked extremely sloppy and desolate. Seeing Jiang Junjie coming, his eyes lit up slightly, like a street lamp in a deep alley at night, faint and firm.
Jiang Junjie walked past him like a blind man who didn’t need a street lamp. What seemed to be standing there was just a house number, a tree.
The moment Tao Le’s eyes passed by, he quickly dimmed, and then followed behind without a word.
The distance between the two of them is only two meters, not far or near.
After talking with Wang Xiaoming, Jiang Junjie felt that he had been opened another door. Although there are still shadows of the past, there is more of a longing for the future.
He is now working in a coffee shop as the most ordinary waiter, but because of his outstanding work, the manager has already been interested in promoting him as a foreman. Such a start is really precious to him. So he didn’t want to, nor would he let himself fall back into the old swamp.
For Tao Le’s entanglement, he has built a high wall in his heart. Because of this wall, although he is impatient, he is not bothered.
In fact, Tao Le is also cautiously maintaining the limits of not bothering him.
The coffee shop is located on the corner not far from here. It is not very large, but the environment is good. There is a school nearby and the price is not expensive. It is very attractive to nearby students. Jiang Jun’s outstanding looks are very popular with students in this area. All young students inquired about him openly and secretly. Fortunately, the atmosphere of the city is very conservative. Everyone dares to inquire at most, but there is no further action.
Tao Le followed Jiang Junjie into the coffee shop and watched him greet his colleagues cordially, and then worked neatly behind the bar.
He was in a trance.
Such Jiang Junjie made him seem to go back five or six years ago.
At that time, they were still innocent.
At that time, there were no scars between them.
A waiter came out to greet him, Tao Le chose a corner where he could see the bar, and ordered a cup of black coffee.
The waiter turned around and was about to leave when Tao Le suddenly said, “Wait. Could you please… ask that gentleman to make this coffee for me?”
The waiter looked at him in astonishment and pointed at Jiang Junjie. It’s not that no one has made such a request, but these are mostly booing little girls, and it’s the first time I’ve seen such a big man.
However, he agreed with the principle of customer first.
Tao Le sat there, watching the waiter whispering requests to Jiang Junjie, and watching Jiang Junjie making coffee without changing his face, there was a warm current called happiness in his heart that could not stop overflowing.
When the coffee came, he couldn’t help holding it up in both hands.
“Be careful.” The waiter was startled.
Tao Le grinned and said, “It’s not hot. If it’s not that the cup is too small, I would love to jump in.”
The waiter thought he thought the cup was too small, and quickly explained: “This is a uniform size.”
“Yeah. Thank you.” Tao Le thought for a while, “Can that gentleman make another cup for me?”
“…” The waiter did so despite his doubts.
On that day, Tao Le drank a whole day of black coffee, a total of twelve cups.
Before leaving, he suddenly felt a little difficulty breathing, and his legs were shaking when he stood up.
The waiter who had been paying attention to him rushed over to support him, “Sir, are you okay?”
Tao Le tried to focus, “Junjie…”
“Huh?” The waiter was stunned. Acquainted?
“Help me call Junjie…” Vaguely, he seemed to see Jiang Junjie slowly approaching.
…He was relieved, and he closed his eyes gently.
When he woke up, he was still in the coffee shop, accompanied by an uncle with a more stubborn beard than him.
“Young man, are you okay?” The uncle patted him on the shoulder.
Tao Le stood up abruptly, and immediately dizzy, then sat down again, but kept looking around, “Junjie…Where is Jiang Junjie?”
“It’s off work.” The uncle shrugged. “Do you think I look like someone who criticizes employees? I’m not this kind of person. Young man, let me tell you that although our coffee is first-class It’s delicious, you like it, and I can’t help but feel like drinking it. But, this coffee can’t be overdone. After all, it’s not the same thing as water. This can be seen from the price. I said, young people……”
“Uncle.” Tao Le interrupted him with a black line, “I’m leaving.”
“Uncle? I’m only thirty-three years old, older than your uncle!” The uncle subconsciously wanted to pat his head, but when his gaze touched his cold eyes, he retracted it in a jealousy.
Tao Le stood up to leave.
“Hey, did you leave like this?” the uncle asked behind him.
Tao Le hesitated, thinking that this person might be a colleague of Jiang Junjie, and finally turned back reluctantly and said, “Thank you.”
The uncle suffocated his chest and almost couldn’t mention it, “Thanks…who asked you to thank you. Give me the money! I am the owner of the coffee shop, not the master of the charity hall!”
Tao Le then remembered that he hadn’t paid yet.
The uncle watched him take the wallet and pay for it, raised his eyebrows and said, “Yo! Famous brand.”
Tao Le didn’t say a word, and directly took out five 100 sheets to him, “No need to look for them.”
The uncle also took the money politely, and at the moment he turned around, he casually said: “I heard that you know this kid Jiang Junjie.”
To mention other things Tao Le may not even throw him away, but Jiang Junjie is different, Jiang Junjie is his treasure. Tao Le turned a hundred and eighty degrees at the moment, and stepped up to him, “So what?”
“Nothing. I just think this kid is pretty good.”
Tao Le secretly said, nonsense.
“But he looks like he is very worried.” The uncle touched his chin and said, “Although he is very cheerful in the store. But at my age, at the age of thirty-three, he is still deliberately friendly to nature. The liveliness of the surroundings can be distinguished at a glance.”
Tao Le’s heart tightened, “What do you want to say?”
“It’s nothing. I think you owe him a lot, so I just want to remind you.”
“How do you know I owe him a lot?”
“Cut. Tell you that I can tell at a glance at my age. You never saw him when he saw you call his name… I wish you would disappear immediately.” In fact, this was made up by him himself. . He was not there at all, and the situation was told to him by others. They only said that after Tao Le got mixed up, Jiang Junjie asked them to help them aside, and then what should they do.
Where did Tao Le know the truth in it, he only knew that Jiang Junjie didn’t want to get involved with him, and he even felt disgusted when he heard him call his name.
“But paying off debts is actually learning.” The uncle said leisurely.
“knowledge?”
“Of course. People catch a cold, you send seafood. People lose weight, you send fat. Is this called paying off debts? It’s not easy to find.”
“Then how to pay it back?”
“Nonsense. Of course you have to know what the other party lacks?”
Tao Le asked, “What is he missing?”
The uncle smiled at him, “Who do you ask me?”
