We Deal with It

With slightly hasty steps, Xiao You Ren walked down the street to the cafeteria.  His breathing was a bit heavy as he was hunting for time to have lunch and meet Zhao Yuzi.  Actually he did not understand what made Wang Xian Wei disappointed, so he ventured to ask a few questions, but what he got was not the answer he wanted.  The man just ignored all the questions by asking something else, about his cat.  It was for that reason that Xiao You Ren was in such a hurry to leave the CEO's room.

From where he was sitting, Zhao Yuzi raised her hand and guided Xiao You Ren to move towards her. She invited the man to sit in the front seat where his favorite food was already prepared.  Xiao You Ren also showed a gentle and grateful smile, then started eating the dish.  Meanwhile, Zhao Yuzi, who had finished her meal, only paid attention every now and then.

"You Ren, your smile has been gentle lately," said Zhao Yuzi.  Support her chin with left hand while continuing to monitor.  Zhao Yuzi's observations were never wrong when it came to someone who was of considerable interest to her.  The same goes for Xiao You Ren. She noticed the change in the man's smile, unlike before who seemed to smile formally as if it was his duty as a social man.

Xiao You Ren's smile now seemed gentle and sincere, like it was his smile and there was nothing to hide.  Xiao You Ren seemed to be showing his charm without realizing it.  Zhao Yuzi was even made to die of lice every so often that smile was flashed at her.  Although Zhao Yuzi liked the change, deep down she was wondering about the cause of it.  Does this man have a lover?

Xiao You Ren's hand movements stopped for a moment, hovering over the plate.  He looked confusedly at Zhao Yuzi, questioning what the girl had just said.  Because he didn't feel any changes.  For him everything he does is the same as normal days even though everything around him does not have significant changes.

Xiao You Ren shook his head.  "I am as usual."  His hands shoved the food back into mouth and chewed faster, intending to finish his food as soon as possible.  There are still important things to do after this.

Zhao Yuzi's eyes moved upwards, her brow furrowed as well.  Thinking about Xiao You Ren's words while making a faint image of the change in his friend's smile.  Her lips moved, saying, "Maybe it's just my feelings, but your smile is anything but gentle."

A light chuckle followed her sentence. She didn't lie about it.  Xiao You Ren's smile was one of the best smiles ever found on earth, naturally because Zhao Yuzi had never traveled the world and greeted all the humans living on this earth.

After eating his food, Xiao You Ren pushed the empty plate away and took a sip of water in a hurry.  His eyes turned serious, supported by the position of the body that sat up straight.  "Yuzi, I want to ask you a favor," he said a little doubtfully.  He was afraid of burdening the girl or anyone else, but this time Xiao You Ren really needed it.

Zhao Yuzi's smile grew even wider.  Isn't it very good if someone asks for our help, it means he takes our presence in his life very seriously.  With that thought, Zhao Yuzi nodded.  "What can I do for you?" she asked with great enthusiasm, making Xiao You Ren smile even more.

"I want to leave Lie with you, maybe one to two months."

Zhao Yuzi's brow furrowed again, this time questioning Xiao You Ren's request.  In a year the cat was like everything to Xiao You Ren.  As his companion in the apartment, friend spoke when he was alone, perhaps even of a higher standing than Zhao Yuzi.  And now the man intends to leave it in the long term.  Of course, Zhao Yuzi's brain re-processed all the reasons that underlie the incident.  Is it true that Xiao You Ren has a lover and they are going to live together?

As if understanding Zhao Yuzi's brain, Xiao You Ren quickly came up with an excuse.  "Mmm… actually lately I often feel absent-minded at night, Yuzi.  Yesterday even I accidentally kicked Lie.  I'm just afraid of repeating the same mistake."

That explanation did not make Zhao Yuzi feel relieved.  Her gaze instead looked sad and mind wandered to the events that happened to Xiao You Ren a few days ago.  The corner of her heart ached, but returned to the fact that she couldn't do anything to help Xiao You Ren.  "Okay, Lie can come with me.  You Ren, have you seen a doctor or…" Zhao Yuzi felt great hesitation in her heart to continue the sentence.  Staring sadly at Xiao You Ren who started nodding his head, as if telling the girl to continue her words.  With the capital of affection for the man in front of him, Zhao Yuzi continued, "Psychologist."

Xiao You Ren nodded his head.  Understood the girl's good intentions and sincerity, but Xiao You Ren couldn't do that.  All he knew was that he didn't need any doctor, didn't need the peace of a psychologist.  Only someone who knows his darkness is all he needs.  It would be more accurate to say that he wanted someone who had seen all his ugliness, but still had the heart to help.

"If I don't recover in the next few days, I will visit one of them."

It was just a word that Xiao You Ren certainly wouldn't really do.  He already had a medical doctor for his illness, Wang Xian Wei, so why else would he entrust things like his mental and mental health to someone else.  It was even possible that even Wang Xian Wei would be able to heal the wounds in his heart.

"Mmm…. Yuzi, may I have your address?  Tonight I will take Lie there," explained Xiao You Ren.  Trying to distract them.

Silence of surprise lingered in Zhao Yuzi's expression for a moment.  Her face was slightly pale and tense at Xiao You Ren's words.  However, she had good self-control so it didn't take long to calm down.  With a smile she said, "No need, You Ren.  I'll take it to your apartment."

"No, no.  I don't want to bother you anymore, Yuzi.  Just tell me where you live, I'll take Lie there."  Xiao You Ren was serious about his desire not to trouble others.  He was the one who needed help here, so it was impossible for Zhao Yuzi to pick up the cat.

Meanwhile Zhao Yuzi came up with many reasons to prevent Xiao You Ren from coming to her house. She wasn't ready for some things.  The fear and worry would definitely not disappear from heart in just an instant.  It's not that the girl doesn't like Xiao You Ren's presence in her house, it's just that she has certain reasons that might not be good for Xiao You Ren.  Zhao Yuzi was trying to protect him, as well as protecting herself and someone else.

It didn't take long for Xiao You Ren to catch all the bad feelings in Zhao Yuzi's eyes.  And he wondered about it.  If you think about it more closely, there's no way Zhao Yuzi would live in a slum while the girl's clothes and lifestyle were very good.  Not infrequently she also drives a car to work.  And even if it was true that the girl's house was small, Xiao You Ren wouldn't have the slightest objection.  Was Xiao You Ren's arrival so bad?

"Okay."  In the end Xiao You Ren relented.  Reluctant for him to cause discomfort in the hearts of others.

After hearing those words, Zhao Yuzi heaved a sigh of relief and smiled a little.  "Thank you."

To be honest, Xiao You Ren had quite a bit of curiosity about where Zhao Yuzi lived.  What is the girl hiding?  To the extent that the effect of Xiao You Ren's agreement not to know her address was so great.  However, Xiao You Ren suppressed his curiosity.  Trying to respect Zhao Yuzi's decision.

Their conversation ended there.  After putting the dirty dishes in their place, Xiao You Ren and Zhao Yuzi decided to leave and split up.

Xiao You Ren led the steps towards his desk, then returned to devote himself to the computer.  In just a moment his attention had completely spilled over to work, he no longer cared about his surroundings and like the axis of his life was what his fingers were doing.  Nor did he notice the presence of someone beside him.  If only Wang Huanling had not patted him on the shoulder, then Xiao You Ren would never have considered that person's existence.

Wang Huanling inhaled greedily.  Panting he said, "Thanks for the help, You Ren."

Hearing such words, Xiao You Ren felt bad.  It wasn't a big deal just to deliver a file, but the man seemed to think Xiao You Ren was a guardian angel with such a sincere tone of voice.  Xiao You Ren also showed a shake of his head with a slightly stiff smile.  "Not a big problem.  There's no need to be too polite," he said slowly.

"But it's a big thing for me, if I get into trouble with my job then my life and my sister's will be in trouble too."  Wang Huanling smiled and sat down in his chair.

I don't know what kind of magic that man cast that made Xiao You Ren feel sad.  Though usually he will be indifferent to whatever other people experience.  Xiao You Ren unconsciously gave a jealous smile.  As for the reason, Xiao You Ren didn't know.  What makes him jealous?  Brother and sister relationships that need each other or something more complicated than that.

His feelings just suddenly became very sensitive.  Xiao You Ren realized it since the night where he had completely given up on Wang Xian Wei.  However, he still wondered about the cause.  Maybe Xiao You Ren just felt a little lighter because he had someone to help him, so it slowly had an effect on his way of life.

"Wang Huanling, after work, stop by the CEO's office first."

The appearance of the voice was enough to distract the two young men.  Johnny's figure was near them and smiled gently.  It seemed that only the two of them and a few people nearby had heard those words.  Of course there are two different perceptions in their minds.  That also triggers the emergence of possessiveness in Xiao You Ren slowly.  Little by little he felt the unwillingness and the fear that would take everything from him just as time had passed.

Xiao You Ren started to think about his own desires.
