like a dog

Finished.

Lin Xun leaned on the chair in a daze, dizzy and gray eyes.The bags were full out of the trash, and the last loaf was eaten on the day it expired.Just right.

He tilted his head and fell asleep.Extremely tired and dreamless.

About ten hours later, Lin Xun grinned and struggled to get up from the chair. Half of his body was numb, and he dragged his right leg and staggered to the bathroom, looking disabled.Thinking about this appearance carefully, it was somewhat similar to the fugitive he imagined on a snowy night, so he couldn't help but go back and take a few more steps.

Before leaving the bathroom, Lin Xun squinted at the mirror. Although it was still foggy, his pale face was obvious.His stomach was empty, his hands and feet were weak, and he was supported by all his bones.

An unknown little writer, in his small remote apartment, burns a pot to nothing.Lin Xun heard the knock on the door and looked towards the entrance.There was a sudden buzzing in his ears. Lin Xun frowned and covered his right ear and opened the door. Through an anti-theft chain, he looked up and saw a strange face.

do not know.

Lin Xun closed the door drowsily, his eyelids drooping, and he didn't have the energy to deal with a young man who knocked on the wrong door at the moment.I walked back to the restaurant with my slippers on, my hair was still wet, and my stomach was still empty.People can develop medicines to restrain the special physiological needs of Omega, and there should be medicines that can restrain ordinary hunger.It's not fair.

"Teacher Lin Xun..."

Lin Xun looked back at the sound, and saw a hand clutching the door frame, trembling with the sound, completely awake from the sleepwalking corpse.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Lin Xun walked from left to right on the balcony holding his mobile phone.He didn't move to strangers at all, and he didn't know what to say.Lu Yuan, on the other hand, insisted on standing outside the door and only entered after explaining to him.

Lin Xun checked the mobile phone notifications, two missed calls and one unread text message.Fu Rui sent it, to the effect that he got two experience coupons from the housekeeping company, and made an appointment for him, so that he could pay attention to the person coming down on Thursday.

Fu Rui felt extremely miserable, but he had greeted him earlier.But for Lin Xun, twelve hours ago is not considered "early".Fu Rui was aggrieved, but there was nothing he could do, so he could only ask, "So did you hurt anyone?"

"He said it was all right, and he was still cleaning the living room," Lin Xun stroked the lighter in his pocket. It was originally placed in a drawer in the living room, and Lu Yuan just asked Lu Yuan to hand it to him.He saw that the back of his left hand was red and the skin was a little broken, "But I think it's injured, it probably hurts a lot. Are all children so sensible nowadays?"

Fu Rui couldn't help laughing, what kid, are you a grandfather?

"It seems to be still in school, called..."

"Lu Yuan."

"Well, the surname is Lu."

"What should I do?"

"What should I do? Didn't you apologize?" Fu Rui was so dizzy, why did he think about these small details again and again, "If you still feel embarrassed, just order him. Anyway, as soon as you write the manuscript Just like a caveman, I usually don’t bother to go around. The last time I went to your place, I almost fell to my death in the dark. This is very good, and you don’t have to argue with me, and both sides benefit. And that Xiaolu, I've heard them say it's pretty good."

Lu Yuan packed up the vacuum cleaner and went to the bedroom. Seeing Lin Xun looking at him, he smiled and nodded with him.

Lin Xun also nodded in response, and continued to talk to Fu Rui: "Well...he is pretty good."

That's it for the housekeeping.It's just that Lin Xun didn't quite believe it when he got his resume. Will there be an Alpha who chooses to work as a part-time housekeeper?Tutoring is more practical.

The Alpha that Lin Xun conceived is probably in the genre of professional elites, with a straight suit and a cold face.In his eyes, Lu Yuan had to be reduced to a "strange alien".According to Lu Yuan's explanation, it was because he was too sloppy when he was a child and was taught to pay attention to personal hygiene, so he fell in love with cleaning and had a good impression of housekeeping.Lin Xun didn't ask any more questions.

Scheduled to come twice a week.Once on Tuesday and once on Thursday.Lu Yuan occasionally changes the time, but always sends him a message in advance.Lin Xun simply replied "Yes".

Lin Xun mostly lives in the apartment, with the air conditioner running all the year round and the lights kept on all night.The air-conditioning was blowing, and he would rather wrap himself in a blanket than turn up the temperature. Lu Yuan knocked on the door and came in, warm on his body, like two seasons with himself.

Turn on the light to sleep, turn day and night upside down, afraid of being bored, feel depressed when free, have nothing to write, watch two or three movies over and over again, or sleep.I also tried to drink, but the headache the next day was even worse, and I became talkative after drinking, and there was no one to talk to. It was colder than the usual loneliness, and I couldn't bear it.

He originally wanted to raise an animal, so he could just jump up and down the house, or lay down at his feet, but this seemed immoral, it was just murdering more lives, and he couldn't take care of animals well.Lu Yuan walked in and out of the house, sometimes stood on a chair to clean the window, sometimes bent down on the ground to check the dust, the effect was similar.

But Lu Yuan was a little too diligent. After a few months, he was almost used to cleanliness.

He leaned on the recliner in the study room and watched Lu Yuan tidy up the books. This chair was crushed by his random pile of books before, but Lu Yuan repaired it quietly. It was placed under the French windows, blowing the air conditioner and basking in the sun, just right. .

The sunlight made Lu Yuan's hair lighter, as if it was very soft.Lin Xun had previously picked up the whimpering kitten in the flower bed by the sidewalk, holding it in his palm, it was so limp, maybe his hair was so limp.

Lin Xun scribbled and corrected the draft, and asked him casually: "Lu Yuan, do you like someone?" Alpha's emotional thinking mode is probably different.Seeing that Lu Yuan smiled and said nothing, Lin Xun continued to ask, "Is her pheromone different?"

As a Beta, there is nothing too regrettable, and according to his wasteful lifestyle, changing gender is also boring.Fu Rui described pheromone, he felt it was like a fog enveloping people, some were haze, some were sharp swords.Lin Xun couldn't smell those, and felt a little regretful.

"Not at all. You can't find him in the crowd." Lu Yuan waved his hand, as if thinking about something, "I want to see him soon, but sometimes I can't breathe and my heart beats fast." Lin Xun looked at him and lowered his head. Seriously describing the appearance, the back seems to be a vigorous tree, burning a fire with luxuriant branches and leaves, and the cheeks are also red.

"No, no, it's too embarrassing."

"No, it's very real." Lin Xun comforted, with the notebook resting on his knees, he drew circles and rows.

After two or three weeks, Lu Yuan suddenly asked for leave three times in a row, and the date was extended until Sunday.This hasn't happened in two months.

Lin Xun opened the refrigerator and made a bowl of tomato and egg noodles.Seeing Lu Yuan doing this before, he chopped it up and threw it into the pot, but the taste was completely different. Lin Xun felt bored after eating it. He will come over tomorrow.Lu Yuan said last time that maybe he could cook something else next time, so he brought some ingredients instead of cooking noodles.

Sleeping until ten o'clock in the noon the next day, squinting and turning on the phone, Lu Yuan sent a text message.

"Teacher, I can't come today, I'm very sorry."

Lin Xun stood up and sat for a while. The room was still tidy, but there was some dust on the floor.This room is too easy to collect dust, and it only takes two or three days.He didn't pay much attention to it before, but now he can always see it easily.The computer that was closed in the early morning was placed on the bedside table. He scribbled the outline and planned to revise it after waking up.But now I don't want to do it again.

He shrank back under the quilt, no one wanted to come anyway, he felt drowsy and wrapped up tightly with the quilt, and he couldn't wake up from a deep sleep.

So warm.

After sleeping for several hours, Lin Xun was awakened by hunger and couldn't sleep anymore.He packed his laptop back to his study, made a cup of coffee, gnawed on a slice of bread, revised the document and sent it to the editor. His mouth was tasteless and he was very irritable.Walking around the room, he couldn't help mopping the floor of the bedroom. He lay down on the ground and looked at it—it was better that Lu Yuan wiped it clean.

Lin Xun was so bored that he dug out the DVD again. He bought it a few years ago and he liked it very much.Pull the curtains of the living room tightly, cut tomatoes and sprinkled sugar.The ice cream is finished, and there are still a lot of tomatoes left by Lu Yuan.

"Busy?" Lin Xun leaned on the sofa and sent Fu Rui a text message.Twenty minutes later, the phone buzzed.Lin Xun grabbed it and took a look, and there was only one word on the screen.

"busy."

It shook a few more times.Two messages swished out.

"die."

"Yes."

Lin Xun threw the phone to the other side of the sofa with his hands.

The movie fast-forwards to the scene of the church fight, the lights and shadows flicker, and the body is agile.He nestled lazily, and became a cripple again, the light couldn't come in, and time slowed down even more.He wearily turned the film upside down and suddenly wanted to adopt a cat.

A living, warm creature in his lap.

Lin Xun stared at the screen, not really looking at it, but he was not completely in a daze, forgetting when he became closed, not going out, not making friends.There are many numbers in the address book, but only a few are contacted.

The phone buzzed, pulling him out of the mud.He reached out with difficulty and turned over his phone to have a look.

It's Lu Yuan.

How could he call?Lin Xun answered the phone, and the phone screen showed that it was three o'clock in the morning.

"Is it... Lin Xun?"

It was a stranger, Lin Xun couldn't help hesitating, the other party asked again, and he answered yes.

"Yes, that's fine! Your friend's cell phone was left in my car. It's very late and your apartment is too far away, so I won't send it there. Ask him to pick it up at the company tomorrow, and I'll send you the address later."

The other party talked to himself for a long time, and Lin Xun was at a loss.

"my friend?"

"That's right, he took my car two hours ago and said he wanted to go back to the apartment. Oh, I didn't want to go so far from the development zone, but he couldn't speak clearly and couldn't communicate, so I had to drive. It's all right now, the mobile phone was left in my car again, and I can't go back. Don't you live together, tell him to come and get it yourself tomorrow." The man finished complaining and hung up the phone.

No way?

Lin Xun was stunned for a while, then hurriedly grabbed the key, opened the door and ran downstairs, the lights came on step by step, panting to the fifth floor, only to realize that he forgot to change his shoes and almost tripped over his slippers and fell down.

He was panting heavily on his knees, his eyes were dim, and his heart was about to jump out of his ribs.His motor cells have long since died.

Lin Xun walked down the last few steps, and the lamp illuminated the person curled up in the corner.He rolled down at the entrance of the passage like a crumpled and flattened paper ball, sweating profusely like rain.

"Old, teacher?" He hurriedly stood up, blushing abnormally, as if he had a cold, "Why did you come down?"

"I'm sorry, I took the wrong taxi, but I can't wait for another one, and I don't have any extra money left... It seems that I left my mobile phone at home." Lu Yuan's voice was completely different from usual, hoarse as if wrapped in charcoal.

"I didn't mean to... stay here."

Lin Xun watched him explain in silence, his appearance was somewhat familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.He gave him the backup key in two weeks, why didn't he go upstairs to find him?

"Okay, let's go upstairs first."

He grabbed his wrist and led him to the elevator. Lu Yuan followed in a nonchalant manner, only moving his fingers up silently, holding Lin Xun's hand.His palms were burning, as if infected, and Lin Xun's breathing became a little tense after he calmed down after strenuous exercise.

As the elevator descended slowly, Lin Xun stared at the decreasing number and suddenly came to his senses.

So why didn't you take the elevator just now.

"I really..."

Lin Xun felt that two idiots got together tonight, and turned to look at Lu Yuan. He was silent behind him, wondering if he was confused.

His hands were suddenly tightened, and Lin Xun stared at Lu Yuan in a daze.The elevator door dinged open behind him, illuminating his face more clearly.Lin Xun's brain exploded with a muffled buzz, this was definitely not a cold.

His face was full of blatant eagerness, his eyes were downcast, his eyes swept across his eyes, the tip of his nose and lips, and stopped on his throat.Lin Xun swallowed his saliva, as if his throat was held by a sharp knife, and his heart was gently scratched by minions.

Lu Yuan murmured a few inaudible words softly, then looked at him silently.

The elevator door closed to take away the light, Lu Yuan moved closer to him, brushed his lips, brushed his cheeks, and only lightly bit his ear pinna.Lin Xun was almost swallowed up by the heat wave surging in his heart, and Lu Yuan's just words dragged him into a prison of sin and confusion.He stood fully clothed, but desire made him almost naked.

His hoarse voice was still ringing in his ears.

He said, teacher, take me home.

The DVD player is just a vulgar machine, playing the old movie from the beginning to the scene of the fight, but the volume is pitifully low and there is no momentum to speak of.The tomato mashed by a fork lay on the bottom of the bowl, like a puddle of blood that was too bright and sweet.

Lu Yuan knelt in front of Lin Xun's knees, nibbling and sucking Lin Xun's fingers. There were deep and shallow tooth marks on his knuckles, as if he was about to swallow up flesh and blood, and like a wild animal grinding its teeth.Everything was not quite right, but Lin Xun couldn't really say no to it. He sent out an invitation, and he also accepted the ambiguous invitation.

Lin Xun stroked his hair, it was as soft as he imagined, but his whole body was scalded badly, and the roots of his hair were soaked.Is it in heat? Does Alpha also have a estrus period?Lin Xun didn't know much about this, and now his head is dizzy, and he doesn't know much.

Lu Yuan turned his head and bit his wrist, looked up at him, rubbed his lips against the tooth marks, sucked gently, as if kissing, squinted his eyes and said: "Teacher, you can feed me."

The heat penetrated completely into the blood vessels, and the same pulse hit the organs directly. The words were completely wrong, as if they were inducing a crime, so what.Lu Yuan rubbed his palm, and he thought of his countless wishes in the dark night, naked and eager.

Lin Xun was hit hard in the heart, and finally couldn't help it, and leaned over to kiss him, burning like coals.He knew that this person said low-profile words, but in the end he wanted to suppress him and crush him. Alpha is like this, and Lu Yuan will do the same.

But he scratched his chin like a small beast.

"Okay."
