"After I return to China... live here alone?"

With one hand in his trouser pocket, Tan Xiao stood in front of the single-family villa that Qian Yutong lent him as a dormitory, raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at the man beside him.

Tan Jiping threw the suitcase on the ground, looked up at the villa, "Yes."

"Looks like I'm not doing well."

The small two-storey villa is magnificent, showing wealth and honor, but there is no place that Tan Xiao likes. The location, style and floor decoration are all far from Tan Xiao's temperament.

It must not be the house he chose himself.

Tan Xiao thought for a while, then clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction.

Lazy sees familiar places, does not understand the pickiness of human beings, squats on the suitcase and meows long and short.

Ever since Tan Xiao woke up, Lanlan didn't want to follow anyone anymore, she wanted to be next to Tan Xiao all the time, for fear that he would disappear again in the blink of an eye.

Tan smiled and hugged it up.

Tan Jiping didn't dare to answer, and silently followed behind Tan Xiao, dragging his suitcase.

Tan Xiao also has a fingerprint lock at home, so he is not unfamiliar. He glanced at the fingerprint identification on the number key, and pressed his index finger according to his own habit.

Click, the unlocking is successful.

On the second floor, the inside is more clean and simple than the outside.

There is nothing to see on the first floor. Tan Xiao is usually busy with work, rarely takes a break and rarely sits on the first floor, so the layout has not been changed much.

The two and a cat went up to the second floor together.

The second floor was obviously arranged according to Tan Xiao's preferences.In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, there is a light white lazy sofa, a simple wooden table, and the off-white cashmere carpet that occupies most of the floor area extends to two rooms upstairs, one master and one guest. There are seasonal red and white plums in the half-person-high plain vase in the corner.

There is another wall of bookcases, and there is a piano in front of the bookcases.

The second floor is particularly simple, so there is no extra furniture. There are only a few landscapes and birds hanging on the wall. They are not masterpieces. Many of them were painted by Tan Xiaoxian. The warmth of home is also missing.

Tan Xiao pressed a few black and white keys, and the crisp sound of the piano sounded in the house.

Tan Jiping followed all the way, silent.

After coming out of the hospital, Tan Xiao asked to go back to his parents' house. Tan Jiping couldn't bear to tell Tan Xiao the truth, and lied that his parents remarried and traveled far away, and no one was at home.Tan Xiao was dubious, and asked Luo Feng for proof. Luo Feng knew what Tan Jiping meant, and fulfilled the lie for him, so Tan Xiao had no choice but to give up.

There was no one at home, so Tan Xiao didn't have the mood to go back.

The remarriage of her parents was a pleasant surprise, and Tan Xiao felt relieved and stopped being obsessive.

Tan Jiping specifically reminded Tan Xiao that he could come here to pack his things first.

Tan Xiao agreed.

Luo Feng happened to go to Beijing to attend the author's conference, and Tan Xiao was not allowed to be discharged from the hospital. Tan Xiao didn't mind very much, and even had a video call with Luo Feng in the car.

Tan Xiao had no memory, and was unfamiliar with Qian Yueqian and the others, so he didn't let them pick him up, and he and Tan Jiping sneaked out of the hospital.

Tan Jiping originally thought that if Tan Xiao didn't want to live with him for the time being and wanted to continue to live here, it would be fine, he would live too, and he couldn't leave anyway.

Lazily jumped down, jumped onto the sofa after a few ups and downs, tucked his limbs under his belly, "Meow—woo."

Tan Xiao walked forward, the sofa was placed in a very good position, just enough to capture the most beautiful scenery of Yangliu Street.

The small wooden table has the original taste, the solid color is simple and elegant, and there is still a copy of "Miscellaneous Talks on Foreign Affairs in China" spread out on the table.

Tan Xiao picked it up, flipped through two pages, murmured, and said in his heart: "I'm not afraid that I won't be able to sleep after watching this in the middle of the night..."

He closed the book, flicked it, and threw it back on the table, looking not in a good mood.

"Don't like it?" Tan Jiping was impatient, and said: "Then see if there is anything you want to take away, let's take it home."

"Let me take a look." Tan Xiao pushed open the door of the master bedroom, and what he saw was still a simple bed, an office desk and chair next to the bed, a bookcase, and a vertical wardrobe.

When Tan Xiao returned to China, he didn't bring many things, notebook, tablet, mobile phone, ID card and himself.

When I came, the suitcase was stuffed with only three sets of clothes.

Later, Tan Xiao didn't add anything else, most of his business outfits were ordered by Qian Yutong. Given the number of banquets Tan Xiao attended, there were quite a lot of handsome dresses in his closet that could blind people's eyes.

Then there are a few newly bought coats, the summer sportswear given by Luo Feng, the down jacket of the same style as Qian Yueqian, nothing else.

Tan Xiao tugged on a few shirt sleeves. The clothes were all made of good material, dry-cleaned and ironed and hung up neatly.

"Mr. Tan," Tan Xiao withdrew his hands and put both of them in his trouser pockets. Tan Jiping answered behind him, and Tan Xiao continued: "Take me home."

I don't like it here, and there's nothing I want to take away from here.

"Good." Tan Jiping said.

Yangliu Street is close to the river, so it was rather cold, and without the air conditioner, Tan Xiao sneezed five times in a row.

Tan Jiping went to close the window and rubbed Tan Xiao's hands to warm them up.

"Let's go."

Tan Xiao waved his hand, "I'll go to the toilet before leaving."

"Yeah." Tan Jiping nodded, "I'm going down to buy something, and I'll return it right away—the car key. If I haven't returned it after you get in, go to the car and wait for me first."

"Okay." Tan Xiao threw up the key, grabbed it with his backhand, put it in his pocket and went to the bathroom.

Tan Jiping went downstairs and walked out along Yangliu Road.

Xiao Li was on duty again today, when he saw Tan Jiping, he raised a smile and said, "Boss Tan is leaving now?"

Tan Jiping nodded silently, and walked away against the wind.

It is normal for him to ignore people, and he also has a cold face. Xiao Li took it for granted, watched Tan Jiping all the way down the big slope, sat down resentfully, and took out his mobile phone to play secretly.

After jumping to 437 points, someone knocked on the glass window of the security booth.

Xiao Li thought Tan Jiping was back, so he stood up in a jerk, straightened his hat in a hurry, and met a delicate and gentle face.

"Mr. Tan?" Xiao Li was overjoyed. They all knew Tan Jiping's car, and they let it pass when they saw it from a distance.

"Hmm." Tan Xiao rolled his eyes, "Excuse me, have you seen Tan Jiping—a guy, about 189, cool, wearing a suit and a gray woolen coat?"

It was too cold, so he went out lazily without hugging him. The phone was on Tan Jiping's body, so he had to come down and ask the guard.

Xiao Li slapped his forehead, he was definitely Tan Jiping.

"I see! Mr. Tan! Let's go from here," Xiao Li pointed to the road, "less than 10 minutes."

Tan Xiao looked over and saw that Yangliu Road was full of trees. In the cold winter season, the leaves have all been shaken, there are few people and cars, and the cold wind blows in front of the big slope.

The tip of his nose was red with cold, and he gave up the idea of ​​looking for it.

"That..." Xiao Li was quite embarrassed, scratching his head, showing embarrassment.

Tan Xiao turned to him, "What?"

Tan Xiao's affairs were in a hurry, and Xiao Li was the security guard in this area. Naturally, he knew that Tan Xiaoguo hadn't returned for nearly a month, so he was very worried and kept an eye on his condition every day.

Before seeing the man, Xiao Li thought that if he could see him again, he would have to ask about his health. When he really saw the man, he felt embarrassed.

Oh, I blame Mr. Tan for being so good-looking that he was too embarrassed to speak up.

Tan Xiao sniffed, lowered his head a little, and covered the tip of his chin with a turtleneck sweater.

Ugh!

Do evil!

Tell Tan Xiao to suffer from the cold here!

Xiao Li blamed himself, and let the words flow out of his mouth, "Are you all right?"

"Huh?" Tan Xiao raised his eyes, Xiao Li looked concerned, he smiled, "It's all right."

"It's fine as long as it's fine..." Xiao Li muttered, "You and Mr. Tan are hiding really well. I didn't see you...you are a couple. Hehe, I said why Mr. Tan is so old People come here secretly in the middle of the night, and they don’t go in and do nothing, they just sit in the car and stay there for an hour or two. I don’t know what to look at, but it turned out to be you.”

"Midnight?" Tan Xiao asked suspiciously, "Secretly?"

"Yeah," Xiao Li said, "I don't know what to see across the house."

Tan Xiao's expression was wrong, Xiao Li was surprised.

"You don't know? Could it be that the two of you... quarreled at that time?"

Tan Xiao was not clear, but there was a touch of emotion in his heart.

"Smile!"

There was a roar in the distance. It was Tan Jiping, who ran over with a bag.

Xiao Li tactfully did not continue, and said hello to him.

Tan Jiping put his arms around Tan Xiao, blocked the direction of the wind, and looked at him disapprovingly, "Why did you come out? It's windy outside."

Tan Xiao had the experience of being "intimate" with Tan Jiping for several days in the hospital, and he didn't dislike his touch.He waved to Xiao Li, said thank you, and walked back with Tan Jiping.

"Looking for you." Tan said with a smile, "What did you buy?"

"Some medicine, you are weak, I bought it for preparation."

When the two returned to the villa, the door was closed just now. Tan Jiping half hugged and half hugged Tan Xiao as he walked along the cobblestone road with flowers and plants on both sides. When he went up the stairs, he slipped and accidentally stepped on the mud.

Tan Xiao smiled unkindly, "What are you thinking about? The road is not easy to walk."

Tan Jiping helplessly rubbed the soles of his shoes on the steps, still supporting Tan Xiao.

There was another footprint on the mud, the old one on top of the new one, one left and one right.

Tan Xiao looked at the two footprints, and asked Tan Jiping to print the footprint of his right foot as well.

Tan Jiping: "..."

Tan Jiping followed suit.

Tan Xiao looked at the old and new footprints that were exactly the same, his mind whizzed about something, he listened carefully, but he couldn't hear anything.

"Do you often visit me secretly?" Tan Xiao felt distressed, "Why didn't you come to me directly?"

"Well, because we were unhappy during that time... I dare not see you, but I miss you so much, I only dare to look at you secretly."

He really didn't dare at that time, because his hatred made him afraid of the uncontrollably beating heart when he faced Tan Xiao.

—he still loves him.

After four years of waiting and four years of suffering, he was still obsessed with this person from the bottom of his heart.

He was afraid of being overwhelmed again.

Hatred blinded the eyes, making the two suffering people thousands of miles apart and did not know each other when they met.

The situation at the beginning was all caused by him.

Because of his pedantic, stubborn, cowardly.

Tan Jiping stopped to rub his shoes, his eyes as dark as night flashed with sadness that Tan Xiao couldn't understand, "In front of you, I will always be a sinner, smile."

Tan Xiao looked at the footprints and felt relieved, but he didn't know why.

The author has something to say:

I'm sorry, my hometown's network is not good, I feel like I can't finish my work with a lot of things, I will continue to update tomorrow, okay~~
