Jiang Mochen arrived on time. He sat down opposite him and said, "There was a bit of traffic on the road."
Yuan Mingxu nodded and asked him, "What would you like to drink?"
"Green tea."
Yuan Mingxu sent a WeChat message to tell his friend to make a cup of green tea and send it in. Then, he put his phone on the table.
"Long time no see."
"Yes, it's been a long time."
"It hasn't been that long." Yuan Mingxu smiled. He looked very handsome when he smiled, and there was a hint of innocence and restraint in his smile. "It's only been a little over two months."
Jiang Mochen was a little surprised. So it had only been a little over two months. He thought that a long time had passed. He looked at the person in front of him and was vaguely enlightened.
"I originally wanted to visit you at work so that you wouldn't have to ask for leave. But considering that your marriage partner was also there, I was afraid that it would be awkward, so I didn't go."
Jiang Mochen hummed in acknowledgment.
Yuan Mingxu continued, "Is he also in the industry? I've never heard of him before. "
"He just graduated not long ago, so he hasn't acted much."
"Oh, then he must be very happy with you leading him now. His first film was Director Wang's third male lead. I heard that the role was very outstanding. Ji Sixing has been in the industry for so long, but he's only been cast as the second male lead. He's really lucky. "
Jiang Mochen didn't like to hear this. It sounded as if Yan Qingchi had been cast in this role only because of his fame and luck. So, he said, "He's really lucky to get this role. But I only recommended him for the audition. I didn't do anything else. There were two other people who auditioned with him, and Wei Lan was one of them. He was able to get this role because he has some ability."
Yuan Mingxu didn't expect Jiang Mochen to defend himself with such a trivial sentence. For a moment, he didn't say anything and just stared at him blankly.
Fortunately, at this moment, the green tea Jiang Mochen ordered arrived. The owner placed the green tea in front of him and then left quietly.
Jiang Mochen took a sip. "Not bad."
Yuan Mingxu smiled. "Their drinks are pretty good. If you like, you can come here often."
Jiang Mochen also smiled but didn't comment.
"You seem to have a good relationship with him."
"After all, we live under the same roof. None of us are difficult to get along with. Naturally, our relationship is good."
"Really? That's good. " Yuan Mingxu looked at the cup in his hand and said, "It's good that you two get along well. I was worried that you two didn't have the foundation of a relationship. He's young, so it would be troublesome to get along with him."
"No," Jiang Mochen said.
Yuan Mingxu suddenly felt a little sad. He looked at the lemon slices in the cup and felt that he was also like a lemon. "It's just that I still don't understand. Why did you suddenly get married so soon? You didn't have such intentions before."
Jiang Mochen thought for a while and said casually, "It just so happened that we were betrothed to each other when we were children. Coincidentally, their family came back, and I also wanted to settle down. Coincidentally, we both like boys, so we got married."
"What a coincidence."
"Yes."
After the two of them finished talking, they didn't say anything else.
Yuan Mingxu looked up at him. The corners of his eyes were slightly downcast, looking a little innocent and pitiful. He asked, "You're married. Are we still friends?"
Jiang Mochen didn't expect him to ask this. He didn't know how to answer. Friends? In the beginning, he helped Yuan Mingxu to befriend him. It wasn't for the sake of being friends. It was just that Yuan Mingxu had always been stubborn about their relationship as friends. That was why he had no choice but to be his friend. But now, was there still a need for them to be friends?
Seeing that he didn't answer, Yuan Mingxu was a little flustered. He said, "Even if you're married, your normal social relationships are still there. Even if he minds that he's strict with you, he can't stop you from hanging out with your friends. You don't want to cut off our friendship because of him, right?"
"He doesn't care about me." Jiang Mochen retorted, "He doesn't know about our relationship. He only knows about you, but he doesn't know about our relationship. Our relationship has nothing to do with him."
"Then why have you changed so much since you got married?"
"Yuan Mingxu, do you really not understand?" Jiang Mochen said softly, "From the beginning, I didn't want to be friends with you. It's just that you want us to maintain a friendship, so I became friends with you. But now, I'm married. Naturally, our relationship will change. I can't always pay attention to you and help you when you need it. Because this will cause unnecessary trouble for my marriage. From a legal point of view, I have responsibilities and obligations to the other half of my marriage. From a family point of view, I need to try my best to avoid unnecessary friction. Even from a relationship point of view, no one wants their other half to have a close friend. That's why I deliberately reduce my contact with you. If you encounter any great danger and need help, I will naturally help you. But if it's just some daily things, I shouldn't be too close to you. Similarly, you shouldn't always come to me. Do you understand? "
Of course, Yuan Mingxu understood. Everyone knew this. It was just that when it happened to him, he, like many ordinary people, couldn't accept it.
