five years later

The last quarrel ended without a problem.Liu Youxia didn't move out, and Anyuan didn't let go of his pursuit again.The lives of the two returned to peace for a short time.

It was midsummer when Liu Youxia returned to China, and more than two months later, the weather gradually cooled down.

One night, the rain came unexpectedly and heavily, and the sound of beating on the glass woke An Yuan up.He got up and closed the open window tightly, and the wind that came in through the gap felt a little chilly on his hands.

He lowered his eyes and touched his fingertips, thinking that he would clean up the house on the weekend, and take out the thicker quilt to dry it in the sun.

Liu Youxia was still covered with a thin summer blanket, her upper body was naked, and the blanket had already been rolled to the ground.

An Yuan didn't know what he was thinking, why he came into this room by a strange coincidence.He took a few steps forward, picked up the blanket that fell on the ground, and gently covered Liu Youxia's body.

In fact, he hasn't changed much.Compared with five years ago, it's just that the youthful look has faded, and the lines on the face have gradually matured.So much so that with his eyes closed now, the light outside the window blurred the sharp point, and Liu Youxia showed his former brilliance again.

An Yuan couldn't help thinking of the "second" meeting with him.

It was quite an adventure, the school is so big, An Yuan met Liu Youxia again in the library before he could attend the Maogai class.

They didn't leave their contact information before, An Yuan was embarrassed, but Liu Youxia felt it was unnecessary.

It's just that this time it's different, it's the first time Liu Youxia saw An Yuan like this, he just felt his heart beat a little faster.

They met in the library stairwell.An Yuan ran down in a hurry, failed to control his strength and direction at the corner, and bumped into Liu Youxia who was holding a stack of printing paper.

Very old-fashioned, but fate is so caught off guard.

An Yuan quickly apologized, blushing, and knelt down to help pick up the paper.

"It's okay, there are no nails in the stapler, so I just got lazy. It's okay." Liu Youxia comforted him, looking at him from time to time.

He thought it looked familiar, but he was not sure about the dim light in the stairwell.Instead, the fearless An Yuan came up to him after picking up the printing paper, frowning as if trying to distinguish something.

"It's you," An Yuan smiled, and his eyes showed infinite meaning without the cover of the lenses. "I'm An Yuan, thank you for what happened last time."

After he finished speaking, he began to blush again, as if he had brought trouble to Liu Youxia today.

"It's really you! The light here is too dark, I thought I had misunderstood the person, so I didn't dare to speak out." Liu Youxia smiled, as if an old friend reunited.

An Yuan put some distance away from him, regretting why he didn't wear glasses, but still had a smile on his face.

Liu Youxia thought he looked very good-looking.The pear dimples are shallow, and a pair of black and white eyes seem to be shining.

"Are you in such a hurry to go to class?"

An Yuan shook his head, "I asked my roommate to bring me some things. I was too busy to get my glasses and I forgot to wear my glasses. I'm sorry to bump into you."

For some reason, Liu Youxia felt that An Yuan looked like the lady in the painting.Gentle and reserved, restrained and dignified, this fusion of contradictions is wonderful, and he quickly remembered An Yuan's face.

"It's okay, besides, didn't you pick it up for me?" Liu Youxia thought for a while and asked again: "Which floor do you usually review on?"

"The tenth floor." After An Yuan finished speaking, he felt that he replied too quickly, and he reluctantly added: "The tenth floor is quieter."

He couldn't guess why Liu Youxia asked this question, but the other party asked him the question, as if the relationship between the two of them was getting closer, which made him a little happy.

"What a coincidence, I'm also on the tenth floor." In fact, Liu Youxia lied, but he smiled happily, and his eyebrows and eyes were curved and innocent.

An Yuan looked at the face that was no different from five years ago, and couldn't help reaching out to touch it, but retracted his hand when he was about to touch it.

Maybe it was because of fear, he didn't dare to wake Liu Youxia at this time, he was afraid that the calm they had managed to maintain would be broken, and he was also afraid that once he touched it, he would never be able to take it back.

The next day was bright, An Yuan opened the curtains and saw that today was a sunny day.The rain that fell at night has long been evaporated, and the leaves are bright, reflecting the light and dazzling.

After the plan for Jianan was approved, An Yuan also slowly became idle.He thought about it, touched his phone and sent a message to the team leader to ask for leave, and the other party quickly replied with an emoji of lying on the ground and crying.

An Yuan smiled and ignored it.In their line of work, they are really busy when they are busy, and they don't want their lives, but once they are free, they are really idle. Sitting in the company is still sitting, it is better to clean the house.

Besides, Jianan's case is quite big, enough for their year-end bonus.

Originally thought that Liu Youxia had already gone to work at this point, but the other party was still paralyzed on the sofa with the computer in his arms.An Yuan glanced twice, but decided to wash up first.

When he came to the living room after breakfast, he didn't know how to tell Liu Youxia about it when he thought of asking for leave to clean up.

But before he was in trouble, Liu Youxia called him to stop.

"Xiaoyuan, do you have any cold medicine at home?"

An Yuan frowned, walked over and asked him, "Are you cold?" After speaking, he reached out and touched his forehead, but there was no sign of fever.

"I don't know, I just have a headache." Liu Youxia let the computer slide off her lap, nestling sickly in a corner of the sofa.

"I woke up late in the morning and found myself having a headache after waking up, so I asked for leave from the company."

An Yuan turned his gaze to the breakfast on the table, not knowing what to say about him.Sighing a little helplessly, he went to Liu Youxia's bedroom to get the medicine box.

"Take your temperature first. It's best if you don't have a fever. If you have a fever, you'd better go to the hospital."

Liu Youxia obediently opened her mouth with the thermometer in her mouth, and asked vaguely, "Then will you accompany me?"

An Yuan glanced at him impatiently, didn't make a sound, just looked at the phone to count the time.

After a while, An Yuan motioned him to take out the thermometer, it was 38 degrees, it was okay, just drink some granules and sleep.But he didn't say anything, he only breathed a sigh of relief where Liu Youxia couldn't see.

Anyuan soaked the medicine, thought about it and added a spoonful of honey before bringing it over.

In the past, Liu Youxia didn't like to drink medicine, no matter how sweet it was, he just disliked the taste of medicine, every time he coaxed him to drink medicine, it was like coaxing a child, An Yuan was exhausted physically and mentally.

But this time the other party just frowned, looked at him pitifully, and drank the medicine fearlessly.

When Liu Youxia drank it, she actually smelled the sweet fragrance of honey.But he didn't dare to yell out loudly, he just laughed in his heart.

"Go and rest, you'll be fine after you sleep." An Yuan gave him a suggestion, but Liu Youxia refused.

"Headache, but don't want to sleep. I'll just sit and rest for a while, and we'll have lunch in a while. Aren't you going to work today?"

An Yuan shook his head and said, "I'm not going to work today." Afraid that Liu Youxia might misunderstand that he stayed at home to take care of him, he added: "I got up late in the morning, so I wanted to ask for leave and clean up at home."

Liu Youxia looked up at him, smiled and said, "I'll help you."

An Yuan glanced at him, wanting to laugh a few words.But when the last words came out, they were much gentler, "Clean up the room where you sleep, and I will go in and mop the floor later."

Liu Youxia still had a headache, but he didn't want to lie down and sleep or sit and rest. He wanted to work with Anyuan to clean up their house, watch the sun shine in, and wait for the weather to get colder.

But although his heart is touching, it is true that Liu Youxia can't do it.A bed cover and quilt cover had been removed for a long time, and finally An Yuan came in to help remove it.

"Is there anything immovable in your room?" An Yuan looked around, and finally settled on a stack of documents on the desk of the other party.

Liu Youxia didn't pay attention to his gaze, she put her hands behind her back and looked at the floor with some embarrassment.The tips of his ears were slightly red, obviously stimulated by An Yuan's unrevealed disgust.

An Yuan wanted to laugh seeing him like this, so he had to go to the kitchen to take out two towels, and then took a basin of warm water from the washbasin and brought them over.

"I wipe it with a wet towel, and you wipe it with a dry towel again, understand?"

Liu Youxia nodded with her mouth pursed, a little unwilling to be rejected by others, but she had to hold back her temper.

An Yuan didn't bother to talk to him, and put on his gloves to wet the towel.

Starting from the bedside table, Anyuan wiped clean every crevice and corner, and Liu Youxia who followed behind was also busy wiping it again with a dry towel.

The curtains were all drawn back, and the dust danced up and down in the sunlight, causing An Yuan to sneez unconsciously.

Liu Youxia blushed again, subconsciously thinking that her place was too dirty.In fact, no matter how dirty a house is, An Yuan is just a psychological effect.

In the past, he had some signs of cleanliness, but it was not particularly obvious.It’s just that it has changed for some reason in the past five years. When it was the worst, the subway couldn’t stand it at all, it was full of bacteria.Faults sometimes go up and down, but they dare not show them. In the eyes of colleagues, Anyuan's irregular temper has become a symptom of the "menstrual period", and he is not very angry. he went.

An Yuan rubbed his nose, feeling a little overwhelmed.Once the thought came up, he couldn't stop sneezing.

"The room is too dirty by me, you should wear a mask." Liu Youxia got a mask out of nowhere and handed it to him.

An Yuan glanced at him and took the mask.The strange thing is that his heart immediately settled down, and it no longer "thumped" so fast because of this little dust visible to the naked eye.

After working for a long time, Liu Youxia also mastered some methods, and gradually caught up with Anyuan's rhythm.

The two moved the bed to the side, and there was actually nothing underneath, after all, it was only cleaned two months ago.But Anyuan still sucked it up again with the vacuum cleaner.

After half a day, Liu Youxia was exhausted.But it may be the most honorable thing for the working people. He doesn't have a headache anymore, but his arms feel sore.

On the other hand, An Yuan was very proficient in removing the curtains, with a meticulous attitude and no fatigue at all.

Liu Youxia hugged the bed cover, quilt cover and pillowcase in her arms, and stood by the window waiting to pick up the curtains.

"These two can't be washed together, you go and take the one on my bed and wash it together." An Yuan instructed Liu Youxia while carefully removing the curtain from the hook.

The latter got the order and hurriedly carried these things to Anyuan's bedroom.

The moment Liu Youxia came in, it seemed that Liu Youxia had a long dream.The five years of leaving were just a breath in a dream, and after waking up from the dream, he and An Yuan were still the same as before.

In the bedroom are the art paintings and handmade paper-cuts that they bought together in the second-hand market. The last two times he entered this room was too hasty, so he didn't have time to look at them.At this moment, I went over and found that the hand-cut paper-cuts were not only one layer, but several layers.He could imagine that after the color of these pieces of paper faded, An Yuan bought the same ones and pasted them carefully.

Liu Youxia closed his eyes and waited for a while before stepping forward to pick up the neatly folded bed cover and other items.He puts things in the washing machine, which thankfully he still knows how to do.

An Yuan was still tearing down the curtains, the eager halo cast on him, blurring Liu Youxia's eyes.

He went downstairs gently, intending to go shopping and come back.

There is a flower shop not far from the community, it is not big, but it is considered meticulous.The flowers sold are not bright, and they also sell common potted plants.

Liu Youxia went there to buy seven roses, baby's breath and lilies.Seeing the fresh and tender green onions in the potted plants, I chose another three pots of poor-looking green radish, asparagus and cactus before giving up.

I bought a lot of things, but fortunately I drove here.Thinking that there was no vase at home, Liu Youxia planned to go to the supermarket to buy some wide-mouth glass bottles, but when she came out, she had a few more bags of fruit and snacks in hand.

Leaving the door in such a hurry, Liu Youxia forgot to bring her mobile phone, so she had to carry things over and over again.When he got home, An Yuan was already mopping the floor of the living room, so scared that he didn't dare to take a step while carrying the plastic bag.

"Just change your shoes." An Yuan saw his embarrassment and signaled aloud.

The slippers are new, at least not the previous pair, Liu Youxia knew that An Yuan took them and washed them.

In such an environment, he couldn't bear to leave a piece of rubbish on the ground, so he had to carefully sort the fruits into categories in the refrigerator, clean up the fresh-keeping boxes that should be removed, and prepare to throw them away when he went down to pick up things later.

He washed a box of strawberries and cherries, wiped off the water droplets on the fruit plate, and held them in front of An Yuan.

"Eat one, I'll cook later."

An Yuan looked at the fruit, then looked up at him, with an expression on his face that he didn't know.It's just that Liu Youxia suddenly became enlightened. Looking at the gloves on the opponent's hand, he quickly took a strawberry and handed it to his mouth.

His action was not rejected, An Yuan shook his head after eating a few fruits he fed, signaling that he would continue to work.

Liu Youxia just looked at him and smiled, and ate a strawberry herself.

Then he packed up the rubbish and went downstairs to get flowers and potted plants.When he entered the door, he called An Yuan, intending to ask the other party to help him pick it up, but unexpectedly, An Yuan blushed when he saw the roses, turned his face and ignored him.

Liu Youxia couldn't be happier, so she worked hard to move all the things in, and as soon as she put down the bag, she ran towards Anyuan with roses in her hands.

"What are you doing?!"

Before he could speak, he was cut off by An Yuan.It's just that although the voice of the other party was high-pitched, it was a little trembling, and it was very serious.

Liu Youxia didn't want to do anything at first, but after seeing An Yuan's nervous expression, his bad intentions came up.

The flowers were not bound, but tied with a wide ribbon.He handed the rose to An Yuan, poked him directly on the chin, then tilted his head and said, "I don't do anything, I just want to chase you."

An Yuan pursed his lips tightly, his eyes did not dare to fall on Liu Youxia at all.His skin is fair, and in the eyes of the other party, he is even more charming than a flower.

In fact, Anyuan's silence has become a kind of default to some extent.

Liu Youxia reached out to lift An Yuan's chin, and looked at him deeply.The flowers are delicate and beautiful, and the faint fragrance gathers at the tip of the nose, softening those unbearable past events.

He kissed through the petals, but An Yuan didn't struggle.
