The small hot pot was steaming hot, and Yu Zhesen enthusiastically added various side dishes to the soup to heat it up.
"Don't be too outrageous! Yu Zhesen!" Sun Minghang, who was sitting opposite, slammed the table excitedly.
He made so much noise that the waiter at this Japanese izakaya looked over with dissatisfaction.
"What's wrong? I'm introducing you to an opportunity to make meritorious deeds." Yu Zhesen helped him hold the ceramic cup that almost fell to the ground, while winking at Wu Xiaoming who was standing aside.
Wu Xiaoming stood up with a smile and helped pour the wine.
"That's almost it!" Sun Minghang didn't appreciate it, "You want to introduce me to opportunities to make meritorious deeds? Are you trying to kill me?"
"It's an exaggeration, not really."
"The big shots in the Supreme Council are fighting with gods. Why are ants like us joining in the fun? I've just been transferred back, and you pushed me into the fire pit. It's so funny!"
Yu Zhesen studied his expression and asked doubtfully: "Are you really afraid?"
"What is real or fake? How much money does it cost per month? Why are you risking your life?" Sun Minghang folded his hands in front of his chest and rolled his eyes.
"When I heard you tell the story about you and Qu Baizhou before, I thought you were fearless." Yu Zhesen sighed with pretense of regret.
"Is that the same thing? Can that be the same thing?" Sun Minghang almost wanted to slam the table again.
"It's not that dangerous this time. What's more, we have the entire security bureau as our backing, and the elites from the rapid response department take the lead..."
Sun Minghang interrupted Yu Zhesen's lobbying: "Stop fooling around and be sincere. Don't you just want to help your stepfather?"
"Hey, don't talk nonsense, that's the adoptive father, not the stepdad."
"They all mean the same thing, but they are not biological children anyway!"
"It's much worse!" Yu Zhesen was very serious about this issue.
Wu Xiaoming intervened to smooth things over: "Okay, stop arguing now, let's talk about work after eating."
Sun Minghang glanced at Yu Zhesen, who shrugged and said he didn't care, so the three of them started to use their chopsticks.
As if to regain his psychological balance, Sun Minghang ate the meal in a very rude manner, adding three more dishes and opening expensive sake.
Seeing his appearance, Yu Zhesen and Wu Xiaoming couldn't help but smile at each other. They didn't feel sorry for how much Sun Minghang had eaten in this meal. As long as they could satisfy each other, it was worth it.
"Actually, I don't like the taste of Japanese food." Sun Minghang wiped his mouth with a tissue after eating and drinking, "It's just that Qihai and Dongxia both liked to eat it in the past, and Laoqu and I also ate it too."
Yu Zhesen was not sure why he suddenly talked about the past and did not dare to answer the conversation casually.
However, Wu Xiaoming didn't understand the entanglement and asked carelessly: "Did this meal help you regain some of your previous feelings?"
Sun Minghang ignored her question and stared at Yu Zhesen intently and said: "After Qu Baizhou left, there was no news from Qihai, and Dongxia and I gradually became strangers. From then on, I decided not to make deep friends with anyone. Because I felt
Too sincere relationships between people will only bring hurt memories."
Wu Xiaoming's face, which had a cute expression just a moment ago, suddenly froze, and he glanced at Yu Zhesen worriedly from the corner of his eye.
What she didn't expect was that Yu Zhesen's expression was very calm, as if he had known it for a long time.
"Since that time did you become obsessed with virtual things?" Yu Zhesen asked.
"I originally liked those, but after making that decision, I found that the two-dimensional world constructed by the virtual network is a good spiritual haven." Sun Minghang admitted, "People are fragile and always need to find some spiritual support.
Rather than entrusting your feelings to another fragile heart that is volatile, it is better to give it to the absolutely safe second dimension."
"Dongxia is not fragile. Even in a place like the Security Bureau, where there are many female heroes, her bravery and tenacity can be ranked high."
"When I met her, you were still under the protection of your adoptive father and sister." Sun Minghang smiled and shook his head, "She has indeed grown up over the years. I will not shamelessly say that I have contributed to this, but this
It’s enough to prove that our separation is good for each other.”
Yu Zhesen couldn't refute this. Sun Minghang's subtext is that people can change. People who were once fragile can become brave and strong after experiencing some things. Correspondingly, people who were once fearless may also become brave after experiencing certain things.
After the cruel torture of reality, I lost my sharpness.
After thinking about it for a long time, Yu Zhesen asked Sun Minghang: "So, your conclusion now is not to form deep connections with people? I remember when we first met in Qidao City, you acted casual and familiar.
, is that a disguise for you to hide your sincerity?"
"It's half true and half false." Sun Minghang scratched his head with an embarrassed expression, "I really didn't want to have any contact with you at first."
"But later you still told me the story of Qu Baizhou and Nanami Saki, and lent me the comic "Dream Maniac"."
"That's because I want to help Qihai." Sun Minghang laughed at himself, "In addition, I think I can use you a little bit. Maybe through your relationship, I can have the opportunity to be transferred back to Xingzhou City - you see, it will be realized now.
?"
Yu Zhesen couldn't help but smile: "Let me tell you something, you are really the second grader. Didn't you get the opportunity to be transferred back to Xingzhou City through your own hard work? Does it have anything to do with using me?"
Wu Xiaoming couldn't help laughing after hearing this, and then pointedly pointed out: "Mr. Sun subjectively wants to portray himself as an indifferent image, but unfortunately, for Yu Zhesen, who has seen too many villains and bastards, you are too...
…Um……"
She deliberately hesitated to speak, and made Sun Minghang feel uncomfortable with her eyes that could see through everything.
"What do you want to say?" Sun Minghang couldn't help it, "Is it childish?"
"Innocent love." Wu Xiaoming covered his mouth to hide his evil smile.
When Yu Zhesen heard these two words, he glanced at Wu Xiaoming subconsciously, because in his impression, these two words were exactly what he used to tease Wu Xiaoming the night before boarding the Eden Paradise.
Sun Minghang was panicked by this comment, which at first glance seemed a bit misleading but actually hit the mark. Wu Xiaoming's attack was a stroke of genius, causing all his hard work to prepare the ground in vain.
"That's enough!" He made a low voice that was almost exasperated. "What I want to express is actually...my mind was changed again in Qidao City."
Yu Zhesen poured wine into his and his own glasses.
"It may be a bit funny to say it, but... the time when you took Jane on a mission was the happiest time I had in the Security Bureau."
"Why?" Yu Zhesen was a little surprised, "Aren't you happy at other times?"
"Are you happy doing repetitive and tedious work day after day?" Sun Minghang asked.
"I was very happy when I was delivering goods with Lightning Husky. Sometimes I drove a delivery vehicle and sometimes I rode my own motorcycle. I traveled to every corner of Qidao City."
Sun Minghang looked at him speechlessly.
"Uh, is it because of Little Jane?" Yu Zhesen guessed at his psychology.
"Maybe. I thought I was the last person to see her before." Sun Minghang spread his hands, "But when we left Qidao City, Claire told me that you let her go."
Yu Zhesen nodded silently.
"I really want to know what your mentality is, why you are willing to let go an Adventist who has been hiding in the Security Bureau for many years?"
"What answer do you want from me?"
Wu Xiaoming keenly discovered that Yu Zhesen's attitude seemed to have changed since Sun Minghang started talking about Jian Yiran.
He became more proactive than before, but also more serious.
Of course, Wu Xiaoming also feels that this topic should be discussed seriously.
