bundled into reality

After coming out of the supermarket, Xiaobai carried several heavy bags and slowly moved to the trunk, "Damn it, this big iron pot is too heavy! Brother Xuan, are you going to take refuge and buy everything you need for the rest of your life?"

Lu Xuan leaned lazily against the door of the car, knocked on the window, "Unlock it. I've been in seclusion these days, I'm too lazy to run, wouldn't it be nice to buy all at once?"

Xiaobai pressed the key, Lu Xuan opened the car door, and the gentleman stood aside, "Ake, get in the car."

Yan Ke got into the back seat, and Lu Xuan sat down next to him, his legs spread loose, touching Yan Ke's thighs as if they were not there, the small space was very hot.

Yan Ke tugged at the neckline, turned to look at Lu Xuan, it was almost October, it was as hot as the Sahara. "You want to retreat?"

"Well, Sister Millie said that the demos of a few fast songs from our album have come out. After we practice choreography for the past few days, we will prepare to record songs and shoot MVs. There are also a few slow songs. I want to try to compose them myself."

Yan Ke grabbed the hem of the T-shirt and ravaged the piece of cotton until it was crumpled.He knew that Lu Xuan had always been a person who had his own ideas and plans. He was talented in music and worked very hard. Whatever he wanted to do, he would definitely be able to do it.It's just that I don't know what I need to do to keep up with Lu Xuan's footsteps.

"Very good, then, these few days I will spend more time in the practice room to familiarize myself with the movements." On the road to becoming a star, he is still a timid newcomer, a little inferior and a little at a loss.

Lu Xuan seemed to see through his mind, and lightly patted the back of his veined hand twice, "It's a big deal, don't be nervous."

"I..." Feeling warm to the touch, Yan Ke was about to say something when the phone on the seat next to his legs vibrated, causing the two of them to look down at the screen at the same time.

"Shen Zhizhi?"

"Why is she calling me?" Yan Ke frowned helplessly.

When Xiaobai, who was inserting the key, heard this sentence, he was startled again, "Ake can do it, Goddess Shen will call you on my own initiative!"

Yan Ke gestured to Xiaobai to shut up, and opened the screen to connect.

"Hey, what's wrong?"

"Brother Yan Ke, have you arrived in Beijing? I just finished work here." Shen Zhizhi's sweet and greasy voice came from the receiver, and there was some leakage. When Brother Yan Ke heard that sentence, Xiao Bai and Lu Xuan had different expressions.

Xiaobai has a face full of envy that you are awesome, you can do it, and Lu Xuan has a face of face that can't stand the contrived disgust.

Yan Ke cleared his throat, and said lightly without looking away from Lu Xuan, "Well, I just got off the plane for a while."

"Then do you have any plans for today? A friend of mine recommended a delicious Japanese restaurant. Let me treat you to it."

Damn it, ever since Su Qing got mad at the Japanese food store last time, Yan Ke has had a deep psychological shadow on Japanese food. "Well, I have to prepare the album recently, I will be busy, maybe I don't have time." Yan Ke quickly glanced at Lu Xuan, expressionless.

"Ah, that's it, where do you live? I'll pack it up and send you a supper after eating."

"You don't need supper anymore." Yan Ke rubbed his brows, this girl is really persistent.

"I'll just waste 10 minutes of your time, send me the address, let's not talk about it, hang up."

...

Yan Ke thought for a few seconds, and sent the location of the apartment to Shen Zhizhi. It's good to make it clear in person, Shen Zhizhi is a good girl, but don't waste time on him, it's useless.

"She likes you." Lu Xuan's voice was deep and determined.

"Well, maybe...I'll make it clear to her..." Actually, there was nothing to explain, but I was afraid that Lu Xuan might misunderstand.

Xiaobai looked at Yan Ke through the rearview mirror, winking with a fat face, "Ake, anyway, you are single, why not try it with Goddess Shen, how beautiful it is, don't miss it for nothing."

"Just debuted and encouraged you to fall in love with an artist, you assistant don't want to do it anymore?" Lu Xuan snorted coldly while playing with the lighter.

Xiaobai waved his hands and smiled awkwardly, "Just kidding, it can't be right. It's just that many men are going to be heartbroken. It turns out that the goddess already has her own heart. But then again, this matter has to be talked about, don't let People are sad..."

Yan Ke took off his hat irritably, his hair was messed up and blown into a chicken coop, and he had no image at all. He raised his eyes and met Xiaobai's eyes from the rearview mirror, "Stop talking, it's annoying, you said she thinks Where am I, I will change."

"You are fine wherever you are." Lu Xuan turned his head, his black eyes fixed on Yan Ke's heart trembling, and his eyelashes drooped down.

"Hey, I have a headache."

"Ake, you are a sweet trouble." Xiaobai's greasy teasing came again, and the car parked steadily under the apartment building.

"There's so much nonsense, finish moving quickly, and you can get off work." Lu Xuanmai walked towards the elevator, and ended the topic impatiently, making trouble.

Xiaobai rubbed his nose, smiled awkwardly, carried a bunch of things slowly upstairs, and said, "Eat slowly, you two" and hurriedly withdrew. Brother Xuan was so irritable today, he didn't dare to provoke him, so he slipped away slipped away.

Yan Ke dragged the suitcase into the room and went into the kitchen to get busy. He hardly ate anything all day. Lu Xuan must be very hungry.

Xiaobai was right. Lu Xuan was basically as if he had moved to another house. He bought all the kitchen supplies that should be bought. He looked like he was going to live at home, but his heart was sweet. This was Yan Ke. Unique benefits.

Thoughts were flying around, the hand that opened the bean paste lost control of its strength, and a few drops of red oil splashed onto the white T with the inertia of opening the lid, and scattered wantonly, "Hey, I'll go."

"What's the matter?" Lu Xuan was touching the lighter to light a cigarette, he tilted his head and squinted his eyes, and walked to the kitchen with the cigarette in his mouth.

"It's okay, I splashed some oil on the clothes, I'll wash them later."

Lu Xuan squatted down and rummaged through the bag for a while, Yan Ke felt a pair of sharp arms wrapped around his chest, "Low your head, put it on."

A Rilakkuma apron, too cute, Yan Ke was a little shy, but he did it anyway, he felt Lu Xuan's hot breath against his back, it was so hot that he felt like he couldn't breathe, this posture, It's as ambiguous as an embrace. "You got... Rilakkuma?"

"Well, the supermarket only has cartoon ones, so let's make do with it." Lu Xuan raised his hand to straighten the strap around Yan Ke's neck, and then took advantage of the situation

I fumbled around my waist to find two belts and tied them behind my waist. The whole process was slow and serious, as if I was packing a beautiful gift.Yan Ke didn't dare to move his hands, and he didn't dare to catch his breath, the cigarette in Lu Xuan's mouth was still floating in wisps.

"Okay." Lu Xuan patted his waist, took down the cigarette and shook the ashes.

"Well, thank you." Yan Ke didn't dare to turn his head, he hurriedly arranged the bottles and cans in a row, his face was burning, and his emotions were too obvious.

Lu Xuan leaned against the cooking table with his long legs casually propped up, feeling very comfortable. Half a minute later, he put out the cigarette and stood next to Yan Ke, took out the meat in the plastic bag and washed it, and the side of the not-wide sink became a little crowded.

"You didn't cook before, what did you eat?"

"Eat blindly, eat work meals at work, order takeaway at home, no one does it, and I find it troublesome myself." Lu Xuan said calmly.

Yan Ke was a little distressed, feeling that Lu Xuan was really too casual in taking care of himself.He poured the oil, sautéed the onion, ginger, and garlic until fragrant, and then added the base ingredients, and the kitchen was filled with fresh fragrance instantly.

"In the future, I will remind you to eat at the specified time, and cook by yourself when you are not busy." In fact, Yan Ke is not a very hardworking person, but when he sees Lu Xuan who needs more care, his sense of responsibility bursts instantly.

"Yeah." Lu Xuan replied vaguely with a smile.

Soon the hot pot was on the table, Yan Ke turned on the induction cooker, put the pot on it to keep warm, and another person filled a bowl of rice, "It's ready to eat."

Lu Xuan picked up the chopsticks and squinted his eyes and smiled, "Thank you, Ake."

Yan Ke found that Lu Xuan laughed from the bottom of his heart every time there was something delicious, and he was also a person who was easy to be satisfied.

"I found that you really like spicy food. Didn't you grow up in the north?"

Lu Xuan lowered his eyes, fiddled with the meat in the bowl with his chopsticks, and said in a somewhat depressed tone, "My mother was married from far away in Sichuan. When she was young, she would cook some hometown dishes. I miss this taste very much."

"No wonder, your taste is very biased, so, is your mother in Beijing now?"

"She died."

"Ah? I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked so many questions..." Yan Ke's heart skipped a beat. He had noticed some problems in Lu Xuan's family before, but he didn't expect such sadness behind him.

Lu Xuan stretched out his hands and rubbed his brows, heaved a long sigh of relief, and said in a heavy tone, "It's okay, I've been gone for a few years, don't talk about it, it's all over."

Yan Ke knew that Lu Xuan talked about the past, but there would always be a hurdle in his heart. The person closest to him left, but the relationship would never fade away, and the longing would only get heavier and heavier. Thinking of my parents, why not suffering like this.

Lu Xuan lit a cigarette, but didn't put it in his mouth for a long time, watching the pale white smoke rise slowly.His first cigarette started after his mother left. He can't recall how he got there during that time, smoking day and night, playing games, squatting in a corner where no one can see, trying to To forget what it was like before the fuck left and the sad loneliness.

The only one who treated him well is gone, life is so fucking boring.It was a period of dark days when I couldn't see the light. I used to think that maybe my whole life would be like that.

The two of them were silent for a long time, Yan Ke felt that no matter how he spoke, the consolation would be shallow and powerless.

Doorbell rang.

Yan Ke stood up and opened the door, "Shen Zhizhi? Why are you here?"

Outside the door, Shen Zhizhi smiled like a flower, and shook the packing bag on her hand, "I miss you and come here. Come out, I have something to tell you."

Shen Zhizhi reached forward to hook Yan Ke's apron collar, Yan Ke fell forward defenselessly, hurriedly grabbed the door frame to keep his balance, Shen Zhizhi's face was already close.

Baji, kiss on the cheek.

"Yan Ke, I like you."
