On New Year's Eve, Xia Shao ended his year's work.

Due to the work handover and the epidemic situation, the work arrangement was postponed for an extra day. I didn't go home on the evening of the 29th of Xia Shao New Year's Eve, and I directly stayed in the company for food and lodging.

At around five o'clock in the morning, Xiao Peng went upstairs with a self-heating hot pot made by a 24-hour convenience store in one hand, and five protective masks in the other hand, saying that this was the last one he got. It's gone.

Xiao Peng shared one with Xia Shao.

Xia Shao took a deep breath, feeling that this gift was a bit heavy.He knew that Xiao Peng was celebrating the New Year here alone this year, and according to the current situation, Xiao Peng couldn't even go home.

Everyone is at risk.

He thought of Jiang Langting who was also busy with headaches.

With the Spring Festival holiday approaching, the entertainment industry should have had the best income of the year, but since the national epidemic sounded the alarm, Jiang Langting's night show traffic has dropped significantly.

Most industries were also hit hard.

For this reason, Jiang Langting also specially called a meeting with the staff, saying that because the government launched a first-level response, large entertainment venues like MBAR have been suspended.

Just after I packed up all the things I was going to take home for the Spring Festival from the company, Xia Shao received a call, and the factory said that the double Rs that had been sent over for the film had been pasted up, and asked him where to send the car.

In the past, Xia Shao could happily say, send it to MBAR.

He imagined how handsome it would be to park a red and yellow "chariot" at the entrance of MBAR, and how many people would turn their heads...

But not this year.

One is because the number of pedestrians and vehicles on the entire Yanjiang Road has dropped significantly, and the other is because he can't add trouble to Jiang Langting at this time.

"Send it back to Wangjiang," he gripped the phone tightly, "I'll make up a text message address and send it to you later."

This year's Spring Festival seems to be different from what he imagined.

In previous years, no matter how many people left the city, the city center was still full of fireworks.

Looking at the whole city this year, except for the densely packed red lanterns hanging on the roads, it is impossible to tell what kind of Spring Festival is being celebrated.

After Ying Yuchen and the others returned to Beijing, they originally planned to go to the temple fair and Baiyun Temple, but all the activities were canceled, and the family just stayed in the huge house and stared blankly.

Ying and Chen's father fell down before, but fortunately he has been discharged from the hospital, otherwise Xia Shao's whole heart would be in suspense when he thought of their family going in and out of the hospital every day.

It is a terrible thing for the elderly to fall.

It seems that every family has difficulties, but this kind of difficulty is a strength at certain times.

All the company's annual group dinners were cancelled, and the live broadcast event that was originally going to be launched on the second day of the Lunar New Year was also cancelled. Work and life seemed to have come to another dimension all of a sudden.

Xia Shao thought about it carefully. In 2003, he was only four or five years old. He was well protected by his family and had no idea what was going on in the outside world.

Looking down at his toes, Xia Shao was thinking about how to spend tomorrow's New Year's Eve.

He doesn't know how to cook New Year's Eve dinner, and now he can't order food outside, Xia Shao stood at the edge of Yanjiang Road in a moment of confusion, pulled off the scarf and wrapped it around his neck again.

otherwise……

Just go to the supermarket to buy something, and then find online tutorials to learn how to make it?

Will I blow up the kitchen by myself?

He was hesitating when a message popped up on his phone's WeChat.

"Xiao Shao, we still have a pack of masks in the medicine box at home, about ten, you can use it sparingly." He Qing sent a voice, "It is difficult for us to buy masks here in Beijing, even if we have money, we can't buy them." .”

"Well," Xia Shao replied, "I... two are enough for me, and I don't need to go out very much. Can I send the remaining eight by courier?"

"No, take it," He Qing said, "We're not by your side, you have to take care of yourself."

"Okay, so are you."

A gust of cold wind blew across his cheeks from the river bank, Xia Shao sniffed from the cold.

He looked at the setting sun and began to doubt...

Is it really a warm winter this year?

After hanging up the phone, he suddenly felt a little homesick.

I think about the fragmented home of myself and my parents, the temporary home where I stay with my cousin and the others, and the home where Jiang Langting hugs me and watches the night scene.

Taking out his mobile phone, Xia Shao leaned back slightly, leaning against a tree.

A few leaves fell piecemeal, twirled and danced in the air, and finally lay at Xia Shao's feet.

Xia Shao looked at the inconspicuous MBAR sign not far away, and dialed the number.

After the call was connected, he asked, "Where are you?"

"A meeting," Jiang Langting said exhaustedly, "I'm explaining what happened after the closure."

Although he had already been mentally prepared, when he heard the word "closed", Xia Shao still didn't recover for a while.

"It will get better." Xia Shao can only think of such a sentence now.

"I hope," Jiang Langting smiled, "it will be fine."

Xia Shao hesitated for a while, then asked him: "Then shall I wait for you at the door?"

The person on the other end of the phone paused, sighed, and said, "Go home and wait for me, it's cold outside."

Xia Shao is not a disobedient person.

After answering the phone, he found a supermarket nearby, and wanted to buy something to eat and go back.

He had only been to the supermarket for a while, and seeing the scrambling tweets on his phone's Weibo, he couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling.

He didn't expect to start the year in such a way.

Do you want to buy more food and go back to store it?In this case, it is best not to go out.

Xia Shao lifted the mask that Xiao Peng gave him last night to his face, put the hat on his head again, chose a supermarket trolley, and entered the fresh food area.

By the time he finished shopping and came out, it was almost dark.

Compared with the past, this year's new year seems to have no sense of the year, and all TV channels are broadcasting news.

The atmosphere is tense.

Xia Shao went home and put down the cooked food he had bought, turned on the TV, went upstairs and took all the clothes he needed to change and wash in the past few days and put them downstairs.

After preparing dinner that could be eaten directly by heating, Xia Shao went to the bathroom to take a shower.

After taking a shower, he went back to Jiang Langting's bedroom, turned off all the lights, turned sideways, and lay on the bed to check Weibo one by one.

He couldn't imagine what it would be like to have his own city empty.

Xia Shao turned over, turned his back to the less bustling night outside, and rubbed the corners of his eyes that were sour.

As soon as the WeChat phone rang, Liu An's voice came over: "A media contacted me this morning and said that they took a picture of you walking with a man. I looked at it and it was blurry, and told me to expose it tonight. , was scolded by me holding the microphone. When are you still posting these gossips now? Do you have a conscience."

Xia Shao's heart skipped a beat.

Thinking about it carefully, he remembered that he had gone downstairs to buy food and food with the company staff recently, and he thought a little more, and asked, "Is it Jiang Er?"

"Well, it should be," Liu An said, "It looks like a figure. It should not be posted over there." Xia Shao understood: "Okay."

"Let's record a New Year's video later." Liu An said.

"Happy New Year?" Xia Shao asked.

Liu An was silent for a while, and suddenly felt that these four words were too difficult to utter.She thought for a while and said, "Remind everyone to pay attention to your body."

"Yeah." Xia Shao nodded.

Xia Shao didn't go to the Spring Festival Gala, and didn't think about whether all the dishes on the table were cold.

He slept until eleven o'clock at night.

When he woke up again, Jiang Langting sent a message saying that he was on his way home.

Entering the room, Jiang Langting took off his mask, took off his motorcycle helmet and put it on the shoe cabinet, and squatted down to untie his shoelaces.

Xia Shao heard the door opened, ran out barefoot, stood at the junction of the living room and the corridor, and watched Jiang Langting turn on all the lights in the living room.

The originally quiet and lonely home now has a warm taste.

"Why is it so late?" Xia Shao poured him hot orange juice, "Are you riding a motorcycle?"

"No, battery car."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Langting put the key back into the pocket of his down jacket, "The one I took you last time."

"..." Xia Shao nodded, "Oh."

Turning on the TV, the two of them finished their meal and decided to lie on the sofa and watch the Spring Festival Gala for a while.

There are only ten minutes to the New Year's Eve.

This is their second New Years Eve together.

Xia Shao thought so, spread his fingers to hold Jiang Langting's hand, opened his palm, and took off the motorcycle gloves.

After looking at it for a while, he stretched out his hand again and touched the scar on Jiang Langting's side face with his fingertips.

Jiang Langting grabbed his groping hand, laughed, and said, "I won't get hurt again in the future."

Xia Shao asked, "It hurts, right? My arm fell like that."

"It hurts." Jiang Langting said in a low voice.

It hurts so much that Jiang Er admits to the wound, Xia Shao feels angina pectoris just thinking about it.

Some time ago, Liu An took photos of Jiang Langting's accident scene, and asked Xia Shao if he wanted to see how the man fell that day. After a lot of psychological struggle, Xia Shao decided not to look at it.

He was very afraid to see the "single arm" that He Qing said.

The last 10 minutes.

Xia Shao leaned against Jiang Langting and pinched his ears.

When the New Year's bell officially rang, Jiang Langting stretched out his arms and hugged Xia Shao.He turned off the lights in the living room, leaving only the lights outside the window and the actors dancing on the TV to celebrate the New Year in the whole space.

Jiang Langting talked a lot intermittently, saying that it doesn't matter if the business is closed, it can still hold on, and there will always be a day to start again.

At the end of the words in his heart, Jiang Langting kissed Xia Shao's forehead, let him pinch the scar on his palm, and said softly: "New year... It doesn't matter whether you are happy or not, you must be safe and healthy."

Sniffing, Xia Shao looked at this person in the dark again: "You are not as fierce as the rumors say."

Jiang Langting was taken aback when he heard the words, and replied, "I am gentle in front of you."

"What about me?" Xia Shao looked up at him, "Is there any change?"

Keeping his gaze fixed, Jiang Langting silently sized up Xia Shao for a while, "It's much more cheerful."

He was about to say something more when Xia Shao's wechat video call rang.

As soon as he picked up the phone, He Qing's face appeared on the screen: "Happy New Year brother! Are you home?"

Xia Shao took a bite of the pancake: "Not here!"

He Qing's face was getting closer and closer to the screen, "Where is it!"

"In..." Xia Shao didn't know what to say for a while, but he still made up his mind to follow the original plan, and moved the camera towards Jiang Langting, who smiled and nodded, Xia Shao turned the camera back to himself, mustering up his courage Open the mouth: "Jiang Er's house."

He Qing was stunned, and he found a stool to sit down while walking, "Are you... are you in the same motorcycle club?"

Xia Shao: "..."

On the screen, He Qing frowned with question marks on her face: "Why are you so close to him?"

Xia Shao: "..."

He felt that he couldn't be so ambiguous, and was about to speak, but he heard Ying and Jiang's voice next to He Qing: "It must be Xiao Shao's boyfriend."

"What?" He Qing didn't know who to question first, looked at Ying and Jiang, and then at Xia Shao, "Really?"

"Really." Xia Shao closed his eyes.

He Qing's eyes widened, and she couldn't believe it: "Really?"

"real!"

"really?"

"..."

Pulling the person to the seat, Ying and Jiang said again: "Take care of yourself."

"Ahem." Jiang Langting couldn't help but coughed twice, grabbed the thermos cup beside him, and wanted to drink a few mouthfuls of hot water.

He Qing was originally on a video call here, but when he heard a few light coughs coming from the other end, he nervously grabbed the collar of the minister next to him, and asked into the phone, "Jiang Er, why is he still coughing?"

Ying Yuchen was caught off guard, and said aggrievedly, "Why are you dragging me?"

Knowing that the family members were just overly nervous, Xia Shao quickly said: "It's all right, he just choked."

"Really?" He Qing asked suspiciously.

"Yes," Xia Shao rubbed his forehead, "don't be too nervous."

"Cough cough cough." Jiang Langting coughed again.

Xia Shao was so frightened that his eyes widened, he turned his head and asked Jiang Langting, "What are you doing?"

Jiang Langting, who was sitting by the sofa, pointed to the steaming water cup, and said innocently, "...the water is a little hot."

Before He Qing could speak, Ying Yuchen snatched the phone, put his face on the screen quickly, and said to Xia Shao with his nostrils: "If he has a fever, you should go home and hide, so as not to infect you."

Jiang Langting: "?"
