Twilight

While waiting for the elevator, Yan Duo used the mobile app to hail a car, and the car came after waiting at the entrance of the community for only 3 minutes, but the road was not as smooth as hailing a car, and there was a bit of congestion.The taxi driver hurried and hurried, and finally arrived at the agreed place at 07:30.

The waiter in the restaurant showed a somewhat surprised expression when he saw Yan Duo coming in, "Do you have an appointment, sir?"

When Yan Duo reported the room number, the waiter hesitated for a moment and said, "This way, sir."

Yan Duo was a little uncertain by the waiter's expression, and finally couldn't help but look sideways when he passed a glass window, and he didn't see anything wrong.He entered the private room with doubts, and when he saw Huang Wenxuan standing in front of the counter wearing an apron and carefully brushing the seasoning for the barbecue, he felt that he had found the reason - Huang Wenxuan's arm was wrapped in gauze.

The waitress stood at the door, watching her words and expressions, wondering whether the two of them were here for an appointment. After coughing, she said dryly, "Please take your time, both of you. If you need anything, just ask. It doesn't matter if you don't want to go to the front desk. You can just call me." It's over there." She leaned her head and pointed, and out of dedication and kindness, she said on her own: "The weather is good today, suitable for...suitable for chatting, our manager often says that... the misunderstanding is all because of communication Not smooth, you two have a good chat, I wish you two a pleasant night."

Yan Duo: "..."

Huang Wenxuan: "..."

The young girl with a ponytail parted her mouth to reveal a forced smile and a canine tooth. She nodded at the two of them and turned to leave.

Yan Duo noticed that when she looked at himself and Huang Wenxuan, her gaze mainly lingered on the positions of their arms, so he turned his head and said to the bewildered Huang Wenxuan: "She must have misunderstood us."

Huang Wenxuan thought of the existence of rotten girls that Yang Chu had mentioned to him, recalled the waiter's hesitant expression, slowly put down the small brush in his hand, and thought: "It seems that he also thinks that waiter is too imaginative. She thought we were in that kind of relationship, would he mind?" So he felt guilty and nervous, his face slowly began to heat up.

Yan Duo hadn't seen anyone blush for many years. He looked at Huang Wenxuan's expression freshly, quickly assessed the indoor temperature and lighting conditions, thought silently for a moment, and suddenly felt blessed, "Did he misunderstand what I said? I The meaning is obviously that the waiter saw us two social people and thought we had a festival, so he came here to resolve the dispute. Why did he understand that he blushed like this?"

Just now the little girl said that she wished them both a happy night... A subtle feeling flashed in Yan Duo's heart. Because he was not sure what Huang Wenxuan was thinking, he became inexplicably embarrassed, and asked dryly: "What are you doing?" What happened to the arm?"

The goalkeeper, whose brain was overloaded, said dryly: "Abrasion, what about you?"

"I fell in the stands that day."

"Assistant Xiao only told me that he came to the game, why didn't he mention his injury?" Huang Wenxuan took off his apron with a heavy heart, looked at Yan Duo with a complicated expression and said, "I saw the news, when the game is about to end There were fans making trouble in the stands, and someone was injured, but I didn't expect it to be you."

"Why does he look at me like this, thinking that I'm also a troublemaker fan?" The young talent, who was not willing to be equated with those annoying social people who have nothing to do, hesitated, "Can you explain it?"

Because they couldn't know each other's thoughts for sure, the two of them were in a complicated mood, and they were a little helpless. The atmosphere in the room suddenly became weird, until a burnt smell permeated.

"Oops, the chicken wings are burnt." Huang Wenxuan came to his senses first, and hurriedly ran to turn off the fire.

"Do you need help?"

"Need not."

Yan Duo saw a plate of mutton skewers on the table, which looked good, and asked, "Did you bake this too?"

"No." The burnt chicken wings could not be recovered, and Huang Wenxuan threw them into a garbage bag with some pity, tidied up the counter next to the oven, and said angrily: "The waiter said that you can bake it yourself, so I just want to try it." , and it screwed up."

Yan Duo didn't know whether to comfort him or say something else. After searching for a long time, he only heard himself say a cliché, "Failure is the mother of success."

The goalkeeper who exposed his shortcomings was very depressed. After drinking Yan Duo's old bowl of chicken soup, he was obviously stunned, and slowly turned his face to look at him.

Yan Duo originally thought that Huang Wenxuan's face was very familiar to him, on the field, on the Internet—he even searched for Huang Wenxuan's information and pictures on his mobile phone on the way here.But when this person stood in front of him and stared at him, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Huang Wenxuan turned around and washed his hands after not watching for a long time. "You're right." After washing his hands, he wiped the water droplets on his hands and walked over, "There will be a ball game later, shall we eat while watching?"

"...Okay." As a pseudo-fan who reads novels on the field, Yan Duo is very ashamed. He thinks the sport of twenty or so people chasing a ball is boring, and he sits for nine or ten minutes to watch this sport. It was even more boring, and I couldn't help but feel depressed silently.While thinking about the original intention of the person who originally designed the sports rules, he picked up the meat skewer and took a bite. Unexpectedly, the meat skewer was sprinkled with chili powder, and his mouth seemed to be on fire. He gasped and remembered Before, he was not ashamed to say that he was not taboo, but now he couldn't spit it out again, so he had to swallow the meat slowly with the courage of a strong man breaking his wrist.When the fire burned from the mouth to the throat and eyes, the trachea immediately protested...

Before he could finish saying "I'm sorry", he couldn't help coughing sideways, looking around, and finally saw the life-saving bottled water behind the seat.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Huang Wenxuan stretched out his hand to grab a bottle, unscrewed it and handed it up. Yan Duo took a few sips of water in a bit of embarrassment, nodded his head indiscriminately, and his breath finally came slowly.

Huang Wenxuan's eyes rested on the sweat on the tip of Yan Duo's nose for a while, and he couldn't help but slid down, landing on his hot red lips, then he quickly looked away, "Sorry, I forgot Tell them not to put chili peppers."

Yan Duo bent down and took out two tissues, waved his hands and said, "It's okay, I didn't say anything."

Huang Wenxuan looked at the food on the table worriedly, suspecting that most of these dishes contained peppers, he moved a plate of fruit over and rubbed his hands, "You eat some fruit first, and I'll order something else, or we can change places. "

"No need." Yan Duo put the paper towel in the bone dish, and picked up the water again, "I've been to this store once before, and I remember that they have a kind of porridge specially for children."

Huang Wenxuan nodded subconsciously, and was about to look for the menu, Yan Duo got up and said, "I'll go." In fact, he mainly wanted to go to the bathroom.

Teacher Yan, who usually doesn't have a lot of idol burdens, is eager for a mirror at this moment, to confirm whether he coughed up any food scraps just now, or why he just stared at himself for that?

The goalkeeper, who felt that he had messed up something, nodded bitterly. After watching Yan Duo go out, he looked down at the time and found that the game tonight was about to start. He hurried to turn on the TV, and then found his second Short board, there are two remote controls next to the set-top box, and he doesn't know which one to use.

Yan Duo didn't close the door when he left, so when he came back, he saw Huang Wenxuan was holding something like a manual in his hand through the half-open door, and was studying it with a slight frown.

Although the small kitchen in the room is open, but because the range fume equipment is very powerful, the burnt smell in the room has long since dissipated. On the contrary, because of the small number of people, although the decoration is very warm, the room There is also a cool and cool style. At this moment, it is dark outside the window, and the light in the room is not very bright. In the twilight, Huang Wenxuan, who is struggling with the manual, has become the biggest heat source in the whole room, attracting people who tend to light and heat. Yan Duo's gaze.

Although his facial features are not very beautiful when taken out alone, but because of the drooping eyebrows and the slightly pursed corners of his lips, there is a different kind of ironed and comfortable feeling.Although the photo of this face is still in the search engine in Yan Duo's hands at the moment, there are various expressions and angles, but none of them have such a real and warm feeling. Yan Duo can't take his eyes off. This person and the fragmented shadow formed by the intermittent and trivial information in the mobile phone for two years merged again to form a fresh and vivid person, warm, kind, and palpable.

Yan Duo slowly withdrew his gaze, walked in as if nothing had happened, and closed the door behind his back.

Huang Wenxuan heard Yan Duo's footsteps approaching slowly, but still couldn't figure out any clues from the manual in his hand. He couldn't help becoming nervous, and said bravely, "Help me see how to use this remote control." past.

The two sat one stop.

Yan Duo reached out to pick it up, but his ring finger accidentally touched Huang Wenxuan's palm.The touch felt warm and dry, he quickly retracted his fingers, and his eyelids twitched invisibly.

That touch exploded a cluster of sparks in Huang Wenxuan's heart, which made his palm numb for a moment. In the blink of an eye, something seemed to jump in Yan Duo's lowered eyes, but the auspicious light flashed past, even though He had excellent eyesight, but he couldn't confirm anything. He stood up slowly and saw Yan Duo playing with the remote control nonchalantly and intently, as if... nothing happened.

Huang Wenxuan lowered his head to gather himself, then looked up, and saw that Yan Duo had found the live channel, put down the remote control, and sat down on the sofa beside him in a relaxed posture.

Huang Wenxuan had no choice but to go and sit down, pretending to be relaxed, but actually at a loss, after the physical contact just now, his mind was overloaded again, and he even forgot how to strike up a conversation.

At first he chose this place because he thought it would be more relaxing for the two people who met for the first time to eat, drink, and watch the ball. Now he feels that he made a wrong choice. This place has too much family atmosphere. It's a bit out of place here, and besides, there is a full game time, without one topic after another to support, it will be easy to stand cold.He was racking his brains to find a topic, when Yan Duo asked: "Your appearance is quite obvious, and you are from here at first glance, but I don't think your native place is from the local area."

"I am an orphan, and my adoptive parents are all Chinese. They adopted me in the orphanage, took me abroad, and became a local citizen."
