The book-crossing case happened! The villains all want me to go to jail

The night is getting darker.

Xie Xuan'an dragged a large package back to the room he shared with Yi Shou.

As soon as he entered the door, he stealthily dragged the package towards his room.

Ikari noticed it but just frowned and said nothing.

Xie Xuan returned to his room, closed the door, and couldn't wait to open the package.

Inside were three gifts given to him by Shao Liechuan.

What he was most curious about was the 1:1 life-size figure.

It's not selfishness, it's just curiosity.

He lifted up the 1:1 life-size figure, which was quite heavy, and placed it on the bed.

Looking at the contour curves of the figurine and imagining what the real person would look like, Xie Xuan felt his heart skip a beat.

I have to say that the workmanship of this figure is indeed very delicate. It looks like the real thing from the outside. The texture of the clothes and the skin are very realistic.

There was a sudden knock on the door.

He was startled, then jumped out of bed and hurriedly pulled the quilt to cover the figurine, but then he thought it was too obvious.

So he stuffed the figurine into the closet.

He ran to the door and as soon as he opened it, a smell of alcohol hit him in the face. He looked up at the man in front of him.

"Have you been drinking?" Xie Xuan'an asked Yi Shou.

"Well, time to eat."

Ikari said as he looked around the room but saw nothing.

He took Xie Xuan'an to have dinner with him. Xie Xuan'an felt that Yi Shou was sometimes very stubborn and there was nothing he could do about it.

So I had no choice but to follow him, although I was still wondering when I could experience it again.

Sitting at the dining table, today's dinner is unexpectedly sumptuous and Ikari seems to be in a good mood.

Xie Xuan was thinking in his mind while eating.

"have a drink."

Yi Shou smiled and poured a glass of wine for Xie Xuan'an. Xie Xuan'an, who had a very good alcohol tolerance, drank a few sips of the wine in the glass perfunctorily, his face remained normal.

"Are you in a good mood today?"

Yi Shou suddenly asked Xie Xuan'an.

Xie Xuan was stunned.

I didn't expect Ikari to ask this.

"good."

Ikari laughed.

All the lights in the house suddenly went out and Xie Xuan'an trembled.

"Happy birthday." Ikari said.

Xie Xuan was a little surprised.

Orange-red flames ignited.

It was a cake hidden in the corner, but Xie Xuan'an didn't notice it.

Ikari stood up and put the cake on the table. The firelight illuminated the faces of both of them.

Xie Xuan'an felt mixed emotions. How come they all knew about his birthday and still celebrated it for him?

Their relationship with me is obviously hostile...

Even Ikari...I had clearly questioned him not long ago.

Why do I feel a little guilty for no reason?

"No, no..." Xie Xuan looked at the cake in front of him. It was a two-layer cake with two happy little rabbits on the top.

The burning number candle shape is 21.

"Thank you for your trouble."

Xie Xuan'an was quite moved. He lowered his head and blew out the candle, and his nose felt slightly sore.

It's really ironic that he, who is not loved by anyone, has his birthday celebrated by two villains in a row.

But he felt that the atmosphere seemed a bit strange, but he put it out of his mind.

Xie Xuan'an didn't know whether this was a good change or a bad one.

Ikari's attitude seemed to have changed.

The atmosphere was a bit depressing. Xie Xuan'an looked at the cake in front of him without moving, and Yi Shou didn't move either. The two of them just sat there quietly until the air became cold.

Ikari sighed softly and lit the decorative candles that had been placed nearby.

Used for lighting to create a sense of atmosphere.

The warm yellow candle flames lit up accompanied by a faint fragrance.

"Cut the cake, Xu'an." Yikari said very gently.

Xie Xuan'an was stunned. He stared blankly at Yi Shou cutting the cake and handing him a piece personally.

It was the first time he saw Ikari so gentle. He should be a cruel person.

Well, people are multifaceted. Although gentleness is rare in people like him, it definitely exists.

But why does it feel so strange now?

Xie Xuan looked at the cake with exquisite patterns and a few small strawberries on it. The most important thing was that a rabbit was divided for him.

As for the other rabbit, Xie Xuan'an saw that Yi Shou put the other rabbit on his own plate.

Ikari seemed to have something to say.

"Happy 21st birthday, Xu'an. I hope you will be happy in your future life." Yikari said with a smile in his eyes, looking straight at him. There was a gentle expression on his face, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and there was obvious tenderness in his eyes.

Xie Xuan'an couldn't believe it. He felt awkward and didn't dare to look directly at Yi Shou. He picked up a small piece of cake with a fork and put it into his mouth as if to cover up.

That smell is the smell of emotion.

But it's more of a warm feeling.

"I hope you will always be safe and happy."

Yi Shou's words echoed in his mind for a long time. He didn't know why he felt a little panicked.

"Oh...thank you..."

Xie Xuan'an said this in a daze. Yi Shou glanced at him, and an obscure emotion flashed in his eyes.

Next, Xie Xuan'an was in a state of confusion.

He felt a blockage in his heart, as if something was pressing on him.

It was like a dream that the two villains took turns celebrating his birthday.

They are sworn enemies in the plot, and their relationship was strained not long ago.

The two people had completely different feelings about celebrating his birthday. Shao Liechuan was rich, so he paid more attention to the experience and his words were very straightforward. But in Xie Xuan'an's opinion, he was definitely not simply straightforward, but had a purpose.

Don't think that Shao Liechuan is a simple person. He just reveals some unacceptable and world-destroying claws in places you can't see.

As for Ikari, he had mixed feelings about him because he almost died and he also put him in danger time and again.

The surprises he creates are more focused on emotions. He will change his micro-expressions in an attempt to make the person on the other side relax their guard. He will also pretend to be sincere when doing things so that some people will think he is a good person after they get a taste of the sweetness.

Although Xie Xuan'an was moved at this time, he was a rational person.

He would never cleanse a person up just because of a verbal blessing or a change in his eyes. What if this person is pretending?

The cost is too low. Xie Xuan'an wouldn't be so stupid.

He would only change his actions based on tiny details of a person. If that person was sharp enough, he might think Xie Xuan'an had let down his guard.

But in fact, Xie Xuan'an was just pretending.

Each of them has their own ulterior motives. Whoever falls in love first will die first.

"Xuan, have you eaten?"

Ikari suddenly interrupted his thoughts.

He reached out and picked up a fork, picked up a large piece of cake and put it on his plate. Xie Xuan looked at it blankly, then looked at the remaining cake on the table, thinking...

Eat something to cope with it...

Xie Xuan'an held the fork and hesitated for a moment, then used the fork to pick up the piece of cream and put it into his mouth.

Hmm...unexpectedly delicious. Xie Xuan swallowed the first bite and took the second one.

It was then that he realized that the pattern on the cake seemed to be hand-painted and that each piece of cake had slight differences.

It looks very artistic.

"Ikari, the cake is really pretty. Is it painted?"

Xie Xuan asked.

"Well, I drew it myself. If you like, I can make more for you."

Ikari paused here, as if thinking about something.

"You made this cake? That's amazing! Can you make anything else?"

Xie Xuan asked curiously.

As expected, Ikari is a person who pays more attention to personal emotions. He is very good at controlling other people's psychology. Making a cake by himself would be very touching for others.

He looked at the table full of delicious food. Although it was not a full banquet, it was all high-end. Just by looking at the dishes, he could tell that it was definitely not cheap.

"I can cook. I can cook a lot of dishes. If you want to know, I can cook them for you."

"Really? Thank you."

Xie Xuan lowered his head and forked a small layer of cake into his mouth.

He still remembered the time when Yikari bought takeout, fried it and gave it to him to eat. He always felt that there might be some takeout involved in this.

"..."

Ikari is a very silent person and not good at speaking. He probably said so much this time to gain trust.

The two of them ate the cake together without making any noise.

"Would you like some wine?"

Yishou suddenly asked again, his voice low and slow with a hint of temptation.

“No…” Xie Xuan was about to ask what kind of wine it was when he saw Yi Shou reaching out for a bottle of red wine, opening it and filling the glass.

Xie Xuan'an glanced at the wine-red liquid and some doubts flashed in his eyes.

Does this seem to be a famous bar?

It is very valuable. Ikari is really willing to give it away.

"Shall we have a drink?"

Ikari looked at him with ripples in his eyes and slowly approached him.

"Uh... okay... drink it."

Xie Xuan felt more and more strange when he saw the look of pity on his face.

Anyway, I can drink quite well so it shouldn't be a problem.

Watching the bright red wine pouring into the goblet, against the backdrop of the burning candlelight, it had a unique charm. Xie Xuan took a sip gently, and a sweetness and fragrance flowed into his mouth.

Hmm... this is a very good wine.

The two of them drank a little and Xie Xuan'an suddenly seemed to think of something.

I should ask about their birthdays so that I can return the gift. I forgot about Shao Liechuan's birthday, so I can only wait until tomorrow.

"Ikari, when is your birthday?"

"The fifteenth of July."

"Huh?" Xie Xuan'an didn't react.

"The fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month."

Hmm... this day seems somewhat familiar. He thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out, then he slapped his forehead.

Ah! Isn't this the Zhongyuan Festival, commonly known as the Ghost Festival?

"Oh... that's not far away..."

This villain is worthy of his birth festival being so unique.

The two men looked at each other. There was a different light in Yi Shou's eyes. Xie Xuan felt very uncomfortable, so he quickly drank the glass of wine to divert his attention.

He looked down at the red wine in the glass. Somehow, he felt that the color was very similar to blood.

But he quickly shook his head and dismissed this strange thought.
