For the peace of the fairy world

Fang Huai coughed a few times in the bathroom, and then sneezed earth-shatteringly.I finally remembered that I still had a cold, so I washed up and went to the living room to take cold medicine.

He poured hot water in front of the water dispenser, pressed the "250ml" button, and the thin sound of water echoed in the silent room.

The young man must have left by himself early in the morning, Fang Huai thought, when suddenly there was a "click" from the balcony, he couldn't help but pause, turned his head to look at the balcony, and walked over.

nobody.Fang Huai thought to himself, what is he thinking?He searched everything just now, he even searched through the closet and everything, this house is not big, how can it hide people?

It was very windy outside, the windows should have been blown by the wind, but the windows are a little buggy.

He closed the window again, and the hot water had already been poured. Fang Huai was stirring with a mug while looking around the living room, and then took a sip of the medicine from the mug.

When he drank, he was taken aback for a moment, then lowered his head and sniffed at the cup.Why is it different from the cold medicine in his impression?

He went to look at the package that had just been dug out on the cabinet next to him. That's right, it was the kind of medicine he used to drink for colds.

Why does it smell fragrant?

Sweet but not greasy, like a pure flower and fruit fragrance.When Fang Huai smelled it again, the scent was gone again, as if it was his hallucination just now.

Maybe I wake up in the morning and my mind is not clear.Fang Huai sighed, packed up and went to work.

He took one last look at the house before heading out.It's hard to believe that I actually brought back a strange young man of unknown origin last night and asked him to sleep at home, and until now, he hasn't regretted his decision much.

Maybe it was the way the young man looked at him. It was dark and shiny, a bit like a cat, or a beast bigger than a cat. One could imagine his ruthless appearance, but in front of Fang Huai, he put away his minions obediently. It was inexplicable. The...cute?

Fang Huai was chilled by his own thoughts.

He must be out of order.

Fang Huai didn't come home until after ten o'clock in the evening, and the silence in the room made him bored, so Fang Huai simply turned on the TV, but after pressing the button several times, the indicator light didn't light up, and the screen was also black.

This TV has only been bought for less than three months!Fang Huai slumped on the sofa, work piled up like a mountain, and life was really not going well.

He lay down for a while.Thinking of the only thing that went well today, it was probably that his cold recovered so quickly that he stopped coughing when he arrived at the company.

He recalled the indistinct scent when he took the medicine in the morning. If it wasn't his illusion... Could it be that the cold medicine was replaced?

Lying all the time, his body gradually became cold, Fang Huai sat up, went to wash and sleep.

It wasn't until the lights in his bedroom went out that a figure slowly emerged from the living room.

Yu Xiao stood in front of the TV.Last night, he used spiritual power to probe the inside of the black flat box, and went to other mortals' homes to observe for a while, and learned how to open it, but it seemed that the object failed after he probed it.

Yu Xiao pressed the live letter just like Fang Huai did just now, but there was no response after pressing it again and again. He applied a little force, and a hole was poked out by him in the black box.

Yu Xiao withdrew his hand, stared at the hole for a while, and cast a layer of illusion on it, so that Fang Huai would not be suspicious when he saw it.

He walked through the bedroom door, lay down on Fang Huai's bed, kissed him, hugged him, and the two fell asleep together.

In a few days, it will be the last day before New Year's Day.

This afternoon he got off work earlier than usual, Fang Huai asked his subordinates to hurry up, finish the work at hand, and let them go home to prepare for the New Year's Eve at night.

He was the last one in the department to leave the company. With a laptop on one shoulder and his hands wrapped in his coat, he slowly walked out of the company building. In fact, he could take the elevator directly to the parking lot, but Fang Huai took a detour outside the building.

As soon as he walked outside the building, the cold wind blew in his face. He raised his collar and walked to the underground garage. A colleague from the company drove out in front of him. He greeted him with a smile, "Why are you so slow? Don't worry. Go back and spend New Years Eve with your girlfriend?"

Those who are close to him in the company know that he has a very good girlfriend. He started talking about it in college and studied dancing and acting.

Fang Huai smiled and said, "No rush."

He got in his car, put the computer on the co-pilot, and when he saw the co-pilot, the first thing he thought of was not Xiao Bai, but that weird young man that day.

I haven't seen him since that day, maybe I got lost outside again?Fang Huai shook his head, thinking that he was really strange, why did he care so much about a stranger?

In fact, he originally planned to take the young man to the police station the next day for questioning.

Fang Huai started the car and walked the usual way for the past few days. He still had lingering fears about the car accident that day, although the whole thing had a sense of fantasy.

When he got home, he just sat down on the sofa when he received a text message from the hotel he booked half a month ago: "Suite 502 you reserved has been furnished, please enjoy tonight's New Year's Eve .”

The text message didn't come, and he forgot about it.For the New Year's Eve, the hotel has to book more than half a month in advance to get a room. This is the case. I wanted to book a tacky suite with the number 520, but I was preempted.

He chose a five-star hotel by the sea, and went to the hotel on a weekend off to discuss with the staff there the decoration, lighting, cakes, etc. of the suite.On New Year's Eve, you can watch the night view in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the hotel room, and you can also hear the bell at midnight.

Just for the moment when the bell rang, he could propose to Xiaobai.

Their relationship is not as good as outsiders think. Speaking from his selfishness, he always feels that Xiaobai has become more and more busy with his career in the past six months. Of course, she was also busy with her career before, and Fang Huai was also very busy. They can understand each other.But it has never been like this in the past six months, there seems to be a wall between the two people.

It's also not a question of whose fault.When Fang Huai realized this, he thought that the relationship between two people could never be without cracks, there would always be a little crisis.

To mend the crack, Fang Huai thought of a good way to propose marriage.

He thinks so, Xiaobai's career is on the rise, she may feel insecure, marriage can give her a sense of security, it can be her strong backing, a harbor where she can return after being tired.

But he didn't expect that when marriage was mentioned, Xiaobai's reaction was extremely violent. She didn't think marriage was a safe haven at all, she thought marriage was bondage.

Well, marriage puts more pressure on women. After all, at the very least, when you get married, you have to consider having children.

Fang Huai opened a can of beer and sat back on the sofa. After two days of inexplicable failure, the TV inexplicably turned back on. As soon as he turned it on, Fang Huai didn't listen to what the people inside were chattering about.

Unknowingly, he drank several cans of beer. He didn't drink very well. Although he wasn't drunk, he was a little swayed.

In fact, apart from being muddled on the day of the breakup, Fang Huai's mood in the next few days was not as bad as he imagined. He used to think that he would be in so much pain that he couldn't let go, but in fact, although he was under emotional pressure, at least he didn't delay Work.

The hour hand moved towards 09:30 unknowingly. Fang Huai glanced at the clock, got up, put on his coat, and walked out of the house.

The place where he lives is not very far from the seaside, just a few subway stops away, the seaside is already full of people waiting for the New Year's Eve, and the towering clock tower can be seen from a distance.

Fang Huai walked to the section of the beach where he had spent the night before. Because it was far away from the bell tower, it was not so crowded.After watching for a while, after 10:30, he slowly walked in the direction of the clock tower. At this time, there were more and more people, many of whom were holding balloons, and there were many roadside shops selling balloons, light sticks, etc.

Fang Huai let himself drift in the crowd, surrounded by many couples, and he was an unlucky guy who just broke up with his girlfriend a few days ago and didn't want to stay in an empty home, so he ran out and crowded people.

Fang Huai copied it in his coat and found the wallet in his pocket. A small piece of the wallet was bulging because he stuffed the two rings into the wallet.He decided to wait here and listen to the bell ringing, then go to the nearby hotel, check out the room, throw the ring in the room, and then leave.

There was a commotion ahead, Fang Huai squeezed over to see, it turned out that someone was proposing.

The young man proposing marriage is holding a large handful of confession balloons in his left hand. Sweet words are written on the balloons. There are about [-] or [-] of them floating in the air, and they are very eye-catching from afar. Kneel down and hand over the ring box in your right hand to your girlfriend.

The woman was surprised and shy for a while, and then shyly took the ring amidst the booing of the crowd.

"Oh——" The crowd let out louder boos and whistles. When the young man got excited, he lost his grip on his left hand, and a bunch of balloons flew out of control and flew into the sky.

"Wow--"

Everyone raised their heads to look at the floating balloons, Fang Huai also looked up, and saw that the couple was hugging each other, and the girl gave the young man a loud kiss.

He suddenly thought of the scene where he confessed to Xiaobai before, and he couldn't help showing a smile on his face, and moved his hands, subconsciously groping for the raised part of the wallet.

Then he felt empty.

Fang Huai froze for a moment, fumbled in his pockets with both hands a few times, turned around suddenly, saw a sneaky figure swaying in the crowd a few times, and then disappeared immediately.

Fang Huai cursed in his heart, pushed away the crowd and chased after him.

Chasing a skilled thief in a crowd is too difficult.Fang Huai has been chasing the most crowded crowd, how can there be any trace of the thief?

Fang Huai stood where he was, and the crowd not far away cheered again. He didn't know what the excitement was.And he shouldn't be here, he should be in a five-star hotel suite, spending the night with his soon-to-be fiancée, waiting for the New Year's Eve bell, instead of being a frustrated person with a full face The bitter head with "mourning" written on it acts as the key object of care for pickpockets.

The wallet contained his cash, all his cards including his ID, and those two rings...

I can only go to the police station.Fang Huai took a step, when someone grabbed his arm suddenly.

Fang Huai turned his head, his eyes widened for a moment: "You—"

Standing behind him, the young man was still dressed in a black robe that he had bought from some crew. He had a slender figure, and his facial features became more handsome and profound under the illumination of the street lamps.

The youth handed him a wallet.Fang Huai looked down, and hurriedly took it over to check, but couldn't help but glance at the young man, as if he would disappear if he didn't pay attention.

The cash is there, the card is there, the ring is gone.

Fang Huai couldn't help raising his head and asked the young man, "Did you see that there are two rings inside?"

The youth blinked.

Fang Huai and him looked at each other for a moment, discouraged, it would be nice to get the wallet back, and the ring... is going to be lost anyway.

He put the wallet in his pocket, and began to look the young man up and down: "Yu Xiao?"

Yu Xiao nodded.

Fang Huai opened his mouth, obviously he had all kinds of questions and guesses about this young man, but when he saw this man again under unexpected circumstances, he couldn't ask anything, and finally he just said dryly: "You also come to listen Is the bell ringing for New Year's Eve?"

Yu Xiao paused, then nodded again.

"Thank you for helping me recover my wallet." Fang Huai paused, then asked again, "The thief..."

Yu Xiao said, "In the sea."

Fang Huai took a breath and said, "Did you throw people into the sea?"

"En." Yu Xiao responded, and said, "I can't die." He knew that senior brother didn't like killing people.

I don't know why, if someone said that he chased a thief and threw him into the sea, Fang Huai would just take it as a joke, but if it was the one in front of him, he would really believe it.

"Are you alone?" Fang Huai asked, leaving the thief behind.

Yu Xiao nodded.At this time, many passers-by had already noticed the two of them. Even though it was night, Yu Xiao was a bit conspicuous in a black robe. In addition, the two of them looked good, so someone took out their mobile phone and secretly took pictures.

Fang Huai glanced at it, then took Yu Xiao's arm and said, "Let's change places."

Fang Huai didn't pay attention when he was chasing the thief just now, and Fang Huai realized that he was already on the street where the hotel he booked was located. He simply dragged Yu Xiao to the hotel.

As soon as you entered the hotel lobby, there was naturally a strong New Year's Eve atmosphere. The lady at the front desk smiled and saw Fang Huai coming up, and asked kindly, "Do you have an appointment, sir?"

Fang Huai said: "Yes, room 502." He showed her the order information on the mobile phone, and then touched his wallet to take out his ID card.

The lady at the front desk checked on the computer and found that the fifth floor was full of luxury private rooms for couples. The room Fang Huai reserved was specially decorated for a marriage proposal. She had an impression. It's great to be able to lament his girlfriend's life...

"Sir, are two people staying?"

"No, alone."

The front desk lady asked curiously, "Alone?"

Fang Huai didn't care about her strangeness. After the front desk lady checked her ID card and gave him the room card and ID card, she walked to a corner of the hall, where Yu Xiao was standing there waiting for him.

Fang Huai asked, "Have you found a home yet?"

Yu Xiao shook his head and said, "No."

Fang Huai said in surprise, "Then you have been..."

Yu Xiao looked at him without saying a word.

You left early in the morning because you were afraid to trouble him?Have you been eating and sleeping in the open?Fang Huai felt an inexplicable sense of guilt, and said, "How about...you stay with me for a night first?"

He wanted to take this person to the police station, but I'm afraid the police station is also overcrowded tonight.

Fang Huai asked, "Have you brought your ID card?"

"ID card?" Yu Xiao asked parrotingly.

"This is it..." Fang Huai subconsciously flashed his ID card in his hand.

The two stared at each other for a while, Fang Huai couldn't laugh or cry, and finally said: "Forget it."

He turned around and went to check out, planning to take this person home, anyway, he had brought him back once, not bad for the second time.

As a result, he turned around and was pulled back again. Fang Huai turned around and saw a thin card in Yu Xiao's hand: "But this thing?"

"Yes, yes." Fang Huai hurriedly took it, glanced at it and said, "Why do you still look like you don't recognize it?" With an ID card, he is no longer a caveman.

Fang Huai took Yu Xiao to the front desk to register and said, "I'm sorry, let's change it to two people."

The lady at the front desk was stunned when she saw Yu Xiao, and then looked at the "luxury private room for couples" displayed on the computer... and fell silent.

After finishing the registration, she raised her friendly smile again and said, "Today, the bar on the top floor is holding a bell party. You two can go and have fun when you have time."

Fang Huai nodded and took Yu Xiao away.While receiving the next guest, the lady at the front desk watched their backs, and said to herself, very sad: "The handsome guys are all gay..."

The guest in front of her rummaged through her briefcase: "Where's my ID card???"

Fang Huai took Yu Xiao to swipe his card to enter the hotel. He wanted to go directly to the suite, but he thought that there was still a scene in the suite where he used to propose marriage, so it would be better to ask someone to clean it up first.

Next to the elevator, there is the indicator light of the bar that the lady at the front desk said, and the colorful lights are surrounded by the word "bell" and an upward arrow. Fang Huai looked at his watch, and it was only two or ten minutes before twelve o'clock.

He said to Yu Xiao: "Then let's go to the top floor to play and listen to the bell."

Of course Yu Xiao obeyed him, but Fang Huai couldn't help but think of the word "beautiful".Although it is very cold, but indeed, he really has no resistance to "beautiful" things.

The two arrived on the top floor. This is an open-air bar with a large area, and there are no seats left. Some guests are whispering, and some are making noise. They are all waiting for the moment when the bell rings. There is a stage in front of the railing on one side. People are standing on it to stir up the atmosphere.

Fang Huai found a remote corner to sit down, and Yu Xiao sat opposite to him, Fang Huai raised his voice and said, "You—don't—do you think it's noisy?"

Yu Xiao stared at him and shook his head.

Fang Huai looked at him, and suddenly had a feeling - he kept looking at him, no matter how the surroundings changed, he was the only one looking at him.

This kind of thinking is narcissistic enough.

He laughed at himself in his heart, looked up and saw Yu Xiao moved his lips, the music and voices were too loud, Fang Huai couldn't hear clearly, and said loudly: "What did you say?"

Yu Xiao grabbed his hand, stood up and leaned over from the table, leaned over and said, "Senior brother."

"Senior brother?" Fang Huai frowned, he remembered Yu Xiao had called out like this before, "Who is your senior brother?"

Yu Xiao said: "It's my lover." He saw a villain say that in the black box of a mortal's house. Do people in this world call their loved ones like this?

Fang Huai was stunned.He has experienced feelings, so he can understand the affection that flashed in Yu Xiao's eyes when he said this.

He stared blankly at Yu Xiao for a long time, until someone next to him shouted, "The bell is about to strike!" He recovered, smiled to conceal his inner turmoil, got up and patted Yu Xiao on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, Go over there and listen to the bell."

He walked in front, Yu Xiao followed behind him, and finally the two stood in the crowd, facing each other, Fang Huai smiled again, for some reason.

"Hey friends here! Stand up!" On the stage behind Fang Huai, the host shouted loudly, "When the bell rings, gentlemen, hug all the lovers around you!"

Fang Huai turned his head to look, and was about to turn his head to joke with Yu Xiao, at this moment, a long, shocking bell sounded from the bell tower in the distance——

"Brother."

Fang Huai turned his head and saw Yu Xiao took a step forward, their faces were extremely close.Fang Huai felt empty under his feet. He was a big man of 1.8 meters, and he was hugged just like that! ?

"I love you."

He heard Yu Xiao say.
