Boiling point

Li Yanqi entered the room, put the things on the table, turned on the light and lowered his head to wipe the floor. He Xin stood at the door a little speechless, "Are you obsessed with cleanliness?"

Li Yan didn't raise his head, "It's not a cleanliness addiction, it's just a love of cleanliness."

He Xin took a step forward, "Are you mocking me openly?"

After wiping the floor, Li Yanqi washed the rag and hung it up, smiled, "Do I have any?"

He Xin said, "Is there anything you haven't counted in your heart yet?"

Li Yanqi applauded, "You actually have self-knowledge, and you have grown into a teenager."

"..." He Xin cleared her throat lightly, and walked in from outside the house. Li Yanqi had no way of hospitality at all, and since he entered the door, he had been left alone, and went to the stool by herself. After sitting down, I opened my schoolbag, took out my homework book, and corrected a few questions.

He Xin looked around. Li Yanqi's room was indeed smaller than his. His was a suite with two rooms. The outside was the living room, the inside was the master bedroom, and there was another compartment for sundries, but he With few things, that room is just a decoration.

Li Yanqi's place here is only one room except for a bathroom. Everything is piled up in the room. At first glance, it seems crowded, but he arranges it neatly and cleanly. There are two beds in the room, next to the big bed. There is a small bed, placed across a bedside table, which should be slept by his brother.

Li Yanqi regarded him as a transparent person, holding the pen and immersed himself in the sea of ​​questions. He Xin looked around and felt bored. He didn't have many friends. So far, he only went to Wu Rui's house to play. They grew up together. There is no need to be jealous, He Xin is more comfortable going to his house than to being at his own.

Unlike now, He Xin looked at the neatly made bed in the middle and thought, she couldn't jump over and roll on it.

So the frustration that just entered the door gradually turned into embarrassment coming from all directions.

When He Xin broke out of the window in embarrassment and walked with the ducklings in the pond behind, Li Yanqi finally closed the book, "I came up with the solution to this problem when I was just mopping the floor. Obsessive-compulsive disorder, so I have to write it down immediately," he said, pointing to the cake beside him, "Do you want to eat it?"

It is true that He Xin hadn't eaten all night. He was in a bad mood and didn't feel hungry. Now Li Yanqi opened the cake, and the thick milk scent instantly stimulated his appetite. He Xin only hesitated for two seconds before leaving past.

"You don't want to eat?" He Xin opened the packaging bag.

"I've eaten." Li Yanqi packed his schoolbag, turned his head and glanced at him, "Aren't you in a bad mood, eating sweets can effectively relieve manic depression."

He Xin dug a spoonful of cream into his mouth and said, "Are you afraid that I will beat you up?"

Li Yanqi moved a stool for him, and He Xin was dumbfounded when he saw it, "So small?"

Li Yanqi said, "Let's make do with it, only my brother's chair is left."

He Xin picked up the fork and pointed at him, "Believe it or not, I'll beat you right now."

Li Yanqi looked at him, "You are tall, you can still reach the table when you sit down, just to show off your long legs."

He Xin stared in distaste, and chose between bending over and sitting on a small stool for a while, and finally sat down with her legs and teeth gritted. The stool creaked, and He Xin fucked, looking down at the foot of the stool, "This The fuck won't it break?"

Li Yanqi witnessed the whole process of him sitting down very elegantly, and holding the cake in a very regular manner at the moment, and took another look at his long legs curled up under the table, the awkward posture seemed to have strayed into the kingdom of dwarves, Li Yanqi I couldn't help laughing.

He Xin gritted her teeth, "You're playing tricks on me."

Li Yanqi shrugged, "No, you think too much."

"I fucking did it on purpose, laughing like this!" He Xin roared.

Li Yanqi covered his lips with his fist and coughed, "Is the cake delicious?"

He Xin's scolding was blocked in his throat, he lowered his head and took two bites, wiped his mouth and said, "Average, too sweet."

Li Yanqi glanced at the "generally too sweet" cake, which was eaten up, and turned his head.

This sound was obviously mocking, and He Xin was upset no matter what he heard. Just as he was about to argue with him, he saw a row of small clay figurines on the table, stuck in a basket with bamboo sticks.

He Xin reached out to touch it, and it didn't feel like it was made of plasticine.

"what is this?"

Li Yanqi turned around and said, "Monkey King."

He Xin picked up a clay figurine and shook it, "Of course I know it's Monkey King, but what material is it made of? It's not like plasticine."

Li Yanqi said, "Oh, I made this with flour."

He Xin held up the clay figurine with a surprised expression, "You did it?"

"Do you have any opinions?" Li Yanqi smiled and said, "My brother is sick and sometimes anorexic. If I make these little things, he will eat more happily."

He Xin still couldn't believe it, so he took a look at the other flour figurines in the basket. Besides Monkey King, there were also Doraemon, Big Ear Dog and Pikachu. They didn't look particularly delicate, but they were very vivid.

"How do you adjust the colors?" He Xin said.

"Mix the flour with vegetable juice and fruit juice, and just stir it."

He Xin turned to look at him, "Is this edible?"

Li Yanqi said, "It can be eaten if it is well matched, but these are samples. My brother liked it very much when I finished making them. I added some other things to keep them in shape, so I couldn't eat them."

He Xin is an extremely impatient person. Except when he is in a daze, he can sit for a whole day without sleep, and it is almost impossible for him to do something quietly.

So much so that when he saw that Li Yanqi was able to make this row of flour figurines so lifelike, he was a little impressed, it was awesome, and he could endure loneliness.

Li Yanqi arranged the small bamboo basket, took the big dog away from He Xin, and compared it, "It's pretty similar."

He Xin was still in a daze at first, but when he came over, Li Yanqi quietly scolded him for being a dog, and then stood up from the stool with great momentum, but his legs were a little numb, so he shook it a few times before hitting the ground. After two seconds, He Xin pretended not to be embarrassed at all, walked to the toilet and washed her hands.

Li Yanqi glanced at the puppy again, then put it into the basket, put it together with the other little noodles, and put it back in its original place.

He Xin came out biting the cigarette, playing with the lighter with her fingers, and just clicked on the lighter, the cigarette in her mouth was sucked away by Li Yanqi.

"what?"

Li Yanqi said, "Smoking is prohibited in my house."

He Xin frowned, "Then I'll go outside to smoke."

After walking a few steps, he turned back and asked, "Why do you hate the smell of cigarettes so much?"

There was no movement behind him for a long time, and after a while, Li Yanqi said softly, "If you have been forced to inhale second-hand smoke and grew up with this smell from childhood, you will hate it as much as I do .”

Getting along with this person is really hard work, He Xin let out a mouthful of misty breath after walking out, squatted on the ground watching the ducks swimming in the pond, suddenly remembered what kind of environment Li Yanqi grew up in of.

The smell that a gambler's father often has on him must not be worthy of his liking.

Just like he hated the hospital very much, whenever he walked to his mother's ward and smelled the strong smell of disinfectant, he felt uncomfortable and wanted to vomit.

He Xin looked up at the sky and sighed lightly.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Yanqi called him from the window, "Hey, do you want to take a bath?"

He Xin recovered from the silence, pinched a cigarette, and walked in.

After Li Yanqi took a shower, the whole room was filled with a faint scent of mint, probably because the room was too small and the smell couldn't dissipate. He Xin's nose was a little itchy. He sneezed twice and took a visual look. Room, stopped to wash up.

"Where should I sleep tonight?" He Xin said, "Is there a floor bed? I'll make one."

Li Yanqi turned off the hair dryer, "Do you see any room here for you to make a floor?"

With a stiff neck, He Xin pointed to the bed where his brother slept, "Is it reliable? Let me sleep there! My feet are hanging outside."

Li Yanqi glanced at him, "Who told you to sleep in my brother's bed? My brother doesn't like others taking his things."

He Xin was dumbfounded, and decided to sit cross-legged on the stool for the whole night.

Li Yanqi got into the quilt and said, "It will be dawn in a few hours, you hurry up and go to sleep, I'll hang your clothes on the hangers for you, we are about the same size, we should be able to wear them."

He Xin walked to the hanger and found a pair of striped underwear next to the white T-shirt that Li Yanqi had prepared for him.

He Xin held it and turned her head abruptly.

Li Yanqi opened his eyes and said, "Do you have a habit of not wearing underwear?"

When He Xin thought of the scene where she was sleeping with Li Yanqi with her butt naked, she was so stupid.

"Don't worry, I don't have the habit of others wearing my underwear. This pair is newly bought and sold to you. Remember to transfer the money to me on WeChat." Li Yanqi added.

He Xin: "......"

There are very few things in Li Yanqi's bathroom, and there is no extra toothbrush. After taking a shower, He Xin scratched her hair in front of the mirror, then dipped some toothpaste on her teeth with her fingers, and rinsed her mouth in a very shabby way. .

His hair is short, so he doesn't need to use a blow dryer, it basically dries with a brush.

When He Xin went out, the lights were still on, and Li Yanqi was lifting up his clothes and applying medicine to the wound on his waist. The wound hadn't finished scabbing yet, the scar was quite obvious, and the surrounding skin was a little red.

The chandelier above Li Yanqi's head reflected warm yellow light, enveloping him in a hazy halo.

He could vaguely see his abdominal muscles, He Xin squinted his eyes and counted, there were quite a few.When Li Yanqi applied the medicine, the muscle lines of the arched arms were also obvious, which belonged to the type that was not very strong but very strong.

He Xinshun choked, "I can't see that you look so white and look like a little girl. It's quite predictable."

Li Yanqi boasted back soullessly, "You're not bad either."

He Xin took two steps to the bedside, lifted a corner of the T-shirt, and pushed it to his chest, "Strengthened abdominal muscles, shark muscles."

Li Yanqi put down the ointment, glanced at the 3 lines practiced on both sides of He Xin's breast cavity, applauded and said, "Wow, that's great."

"Your tone of voice is very weak." He Xin said as she pulled down her clothes, rubbed her fingers nervously, and muttered in a low voice, "Is there something wrong with me comparing my muscles with yours?"

Taking a sip from the water glass on the table, He Xin found it funny in embarrassment.

He was really sick just now, so naive, like a two hundred and five.

Li Yanqi went to wash his hands, then wiped his fingers slowly with a tissue, "I turned off the light."

He Xin said, "Shut it up."

Li Yanqi pressed the switch, walked quickly to the bed and lay down, there is no need to cover the quilt in summer, so there is only a small blanket on the bed, He Xin folded his arms and turned to the other side, Li Yanqi took it away put it on the stomach.

After the lights went out, the room fell into darkness and silence.

After He Xin turned over, he didn't move at all, and his breathing rhythm was very steady. Li Yanqi thought he fell asleep for a second, but just as he closed his eyes, he heard a deep sigh from the pillow, "You know how to play?" Piano?"

Li Yanqi suppressed his voice, "No, what's wrong?"

He Xin moved and straightened her legs, "Your fingers are very long, suitable for playing the piano."

Li Yanqi didn't make a sound, and silently listened to the second half of his sentence.

"Do you believe I can play the piano?"

Li Yanqi opened his eyes, and said "hmm" with a bit of surprise. He really couldn't imagine that a person like He Xin, who is always dedicated to the cause of beating people, and has a rebellious and arrogant temperament, would be like this. Emotional?

"I don't like playing the piano, but I am suitable." He Xin glanced at her hand in the dark, and then tightly clenched it into a fist, "That's what my mother said, don't care if you like it or not, as long as it suits you .”

Li Yanqi guessed that he was in a bad mood today. Before he took a shower, he saw He Xin squatting by the pond, his whole body melted in the darkness, holding a lighter in his hand, and wiping it with his clothes from time to time. He saw He went to wash the clothes at a glance, and after washing, the other party still maintained the same posture just now, with his head lowered, his shoulders drooping slightly, and cigarette butts were all around his feet.

He Xin suddenly smiled, "Has your mother ever hit you?"

Li Yanqi turned his head to look at the back of the other's head, and asked in silence for a moment, "Your mother often beats you?"

He Xin said, "Not very often."

It was every day, every day, every day, crying and beating him, leaving him no room for hatred.

Sometimes He Xin would also think, what is the root of all this pain?Is it his father's love of the new and dislike of the old, or his careless resistance back then.

He thought that after staying away from them, he would live a chic and happy life, which was very different from the He Xin before, but occasionally he would still be entangled by the emotions of the past, thinking that he could go far away, but found that he arrived within a few steps head.

He Xin closed her eyes in the dark. If there is no accident, from now on, he and He Wenbo will take your own way of sunshine, and I will take my single-plank bridge. The mountains are high and the rivers are long.

From now on he is a real person.

Li Yanqi couldn't see He Xin's expression, but could hear his heavy breathing.

It seems to be suppressing something severely.

He opened his eyes in the dark, and suddenly there was a little resonance in his chest.

Although he didn't know anything about what He Xin's parents and his family were like, he seemed to be able to empathize with him. Under his majestic appearance, he was also working hard to survive.

The source of rebellion, madness, and loneliness all come from the "unneeded" deep in his heart.

At this moment, Li Yanqi felt that he must really want to let out a loud roar to vent his inner resentment.

He Xin turned over and lay flat, facing the ceiling.

Li Yanqi also turned over, leaned sideways, and slammed his elbow into his stomach, a heavy blow.

"Damn it, are you sleepwalking?" He Xin yelled while clutching her stomach.

There was sleepiness in Li Yanqi's voice, "I didn't pay attention when I fell asleep."

He Xin thought to himself, shit, that's obviously a long-planned attack on his stomach, who is so accurate when he's asleep?

Li Yanqi suddenly smiled, "Just think of me as jealous of your shark muscles."

He Xin scolded "crazy", and when he turned around, his toes touched Li Yanqi's calf. He was a little awkward, and moved a little closer to the bed.

Not long after, he heard Li Yanqi's gentle breathing, and he probably fell asleep this time.

The irritability and melancholy in He Xin's mind were disturbed by him, but they were dispersed for seven or eight minutes. He wanted to hold his breath and contemplate his miserable life for a while, but sleepiness flooded his forehead one after another, and he fell asleep in a daze Before that, He Xin was still thinking, did Li Yanqi sprinkle some hypnotics like "sleep fast" on his hands when he beat him in the stomach?

--------

He Xin: What a skillful hand.

Li Yanqi: Do you want to try?
