night sky train

Chapter 18 Talk like we're in love

This time Chen Jifeng did what he said, and he finished his work without making Wei Yi wait for a long time.It was almost two o'clock in the middle of the night when the two returned home together, and there was no one on the road, only the street lamps left to illuminate the road.

After returning to the community, Chen Jifeng went to the garage to park, and Wei Yi stood downstairs waiting for him.The night was quiet, Wei Yi raised his head, and saw the sky full of broken stars, the night sky was pure black, and the stars reflected white.

Wei Yi looked up at the stars without moving, until Chen Jifeng came over and bumped into him lightly, "What are you thinking about?"

Wei Yi came back to his senses, "The stars are beautiful."

He looked back and saw an extra box in Chen Jifeng's hand.Chen Jifeng smiled and said, "I bought you a birthday present. Don't worry, I haven't forgotten your birthday. Let's go home and unwrap the present."

Chen Jifeng turned and entered the building, Wei Yi followed closely behind him, his eyes were still looking at the box, "What gift?"

"You'll know when you get home."

As soon as Chen Jifeng kicked his feet, the sensor light in the corridor suddenly lit up.The warm yellow light is shrouded, raising a little temperature in the still chilly spring night.Wei Yi walked behind Chen Jifeng, looking at his black hair that was illuminated by the light in a warm color, his broad shoulders, his every step up the stairs was quiet and steady, and he had a familiar and reassuring aura.

He suddenly wanted to hug Chen Jifeng very much.Just like the last time, I retracted into Chen Jifeng's arms, feeling his slightly scalded skin and the powerful throbbing heartbeat, it was a feeling that could easily iron out all the wandering and uneasiness.

Chen Jifeng always comforted himself easily, whether it was his behavior or Chen Jifeng himself.Wei Yi has already noticed this, and he also understands that he likes to be close to Chen Jifeng so much, the reason is the same as a traveler in the cold night wants to get close to the fire, the baby penguin keeps drilling under the mother penguin's feet, and the seeds will not break out until spring.

Because Chen Jifeng was hot, but Wei Yi was cold, so cold that he wanted to keep warm, but there was no other source of heat, so he subconsciously chased after the only one.

Wei Yi looked at Chen Jifeng's back and lowered his eyes.

"I bought you a pair of shoes." Chen Jifeng entered Wei Yi's house, opened the box, and took out a pair of brand new leather shoes, "Try it, it should be the right size."

"Thank you, brother." Wei Yi took the leather shoes, saw that the shoes were stuffed with paper balls, took them out and put them on the table, and asked while putting them on his feet, "When did you buy them?"

"I took the time to buy it two days ago."

Wei Yi put on the shoes, stood up and walked around, and thought the shoes looked nice, but they seemed a bit small.He was embarrassed to tell Chen Jifeng, so he said, "Very suitable."

Chen Jifeng looked at him.

"It's suitable." Chen Jifeng patted himself next to him, "Sit here."

Wei Yi sat down obediently.

"Shoes off."

Wei Yi took off his shoes without knowing why, Chen Jifeng picked up the shoes, and pulled out another layer of paper pads from inside.

"Do you know there are paper pads inside the new shoes?" Chen Jifeng was losing his temper. "Is this the first time you wear new shoes?"

"...That's it." Wei Yi really didn't know that when he was a child, all his shoes were delivered to him in clean pairs, and he only had to be responsible for wearing them.

"Try again, see if it's still young."

Wei Yi didn't speak, and lowered his head to put on his shoes again.He felt that everything he thought was seen through by Chen Jifeng, even for such a small thing as shoe fitting, Chen Jifeng knew whether he was really satisfied, or just afraid that the person who gave the gift would be disappointed.

"Just right." Wei Yi really felt the fit this time, and said sincerely, "I like it very much, and I will always wear it."

Chen Jifeng held his ankle and lifted it up to rest on his leg, pressed his fingers on the toe of the shoe, and then nodded: "Almost, I said I can't make a mistake."

Wei Yi's socks were short today, and the trousers were not long, so Chen Jifeng's grip was directly on his bare|exposed skin.That hand was as hot and hot as ever, and the dry palm with a thin callus was pressed against the slightly cold ankle, and the temperature penetrated directly into the skin and the blood and bones beneath it.

"Why are your feet so thin?" Chen Jifeng was gripped by the protruding knuckles in his palms, and he lowered his head to compare his ankles, "I can hold them with one hand."

Wei Yi hurriedly withdrew his foot, and subconsciously covered the place where Chen Jifeng held it with his fingers. Compared with the temperature of the surrounding skin, it was obviously too hot there, "But, it may be that my brother's hand is big."

Wei Yi didn't know why he suddenly became nervous, his heartbeat accelerated irregularly, and he didn't know what to say for a long time.

Chen Jifeng seemed to be thinking about something, and asked him after a while: "Sleep with you at night?"

"Ah?" Wei Yi was stunned, inexplicably more nervous, "Why, why?"

Chen Jifeng raised the corner of his mouth at him, showing a somewhat sly expression, like an older brother showing love and understanding to his younger brother, "Because your face is now saying 'I don't want to sleep alone tonight'."

Wei Yi touched his face subconsciously, "Is there?"

Chen Jifeng was amused by his actions, stretched out his hand to clean up the scattered paper balls and boxes on the table, and said in a leisurely manner: "Don't miss this opportunity, I give you ten seconds to decide whether to accept this rare and precious sleeping service , I can’t decide after ten seconds, but I’ll go back. Start counting down, ten, nine, eight…”

Wei Yi suddenly became anxious: "But brother, doesn't he have to go to work tomorrow? If you sleep with me tonight, will it affect tomorrow's work..."

"three two--"

Wei Yi almost jumped up, "Yes! I want to accompany you!"

Chen Jifeng smiled and stood up: "I'll come back and take a shower."

When Chen Jifeng went back, Wei Yi specially made the bed. He took out the spare quilt from the cabinet, put on a new sheet, made it on the bed, and then went to take a bath.He was very happy in his heart. The blankness and loneliness of staying at home alone during the day were gone, replaced by a slightly full sense of expectation and fulfillment.

When Chen Jifeng came back again, he changed into a simple black T-shirt and loose pants.He didn't talk politely to Wei Yi, walked to the bedroom, sat down on the bed, and called Wei Yi, "Come and sleep quickly."

Wei Yi turned off the lights in the kitchen and living room, ran into the bedroom with his slippers on, turned off the lights in the bedroom, and climbed into bed nervously.

"...you're crushing my foot."

"Ah, sorry!"

In the dark, Chen Jifeng accurately grabbed the flustered Wei Yi and asked him to sleep next to him, while laughing at him, "How grown up, why do you still look like a child sleeping with a classmate for the first time."

Wei Yi snuggled into the quilt and replied, "I haven't slept with my classmates before."

"This is just a metaphor." Chen Jifeng twirled Wei Yi angrily, "Okay, go to bed."

Wei Yi changed his position under the quilt, facing Chen Jifeng.The room was very dark, the bedroom window was just blocked by another building, and only a very faint dark blue light came in.Chen Jifeng was also facing him, the familiar silhouette was very dark, and the warm breath was conveyed through his breath again.

Wei Yi was a little confused for a moment.He wanted to get closer to Chen Jifeng, but his brain told him that the distance was already very close, any closer would exceed the normal distance.What puzzled him was why the several impulses stemming from his selfish desire to keep warm were accompanied by subtle symptoms such as rapid heartbeat, emotional tension, and suddenly not knowing how to organize words into words when he was about to speak.

"Wei Yi." Chen Jifeng suddenly called out to him.

Wei Yi was thinking about Chen Jifeng, and was taken aback by the sound, fearing that he would be seen to be thinking what was going on in his heart again, so he asked vigilantly, "What's wrong?"

"When you think about something, can you stop staring at me without blinking." Chen Jifeng said sincerely, "Your green eyes are really scary at night."

"... Oh." Wei Yi could only close his eyes.After a while, he couldn't help opening his eyes again. Seeing that Chen Jifeng had closed his eyes, he could only keep his mouth shut and his feet moved slightly under the quilt unconsciously.

"Just say what you want." Chen Jifeng's voice sounded again, and it sounded deep and deep in the darkness.

Wei Yi was stunned.He glanced at Chen Jifeng again, Chen Jifeng still had his eyes closed, but he could always know what he was thinking.

Seeing that Wei Yi kept silent, Chen Jifeng simply opened his eyes and asked him, "Have you been at home all day?"

"Ah."

"what to do."

"Sleep, eat, read." Wei Yi answered, thought for a while, and added, "I went to the cake shop to get a cake, and went home to eat a piece."

There was a smile in Chen Jifeng's voice, "Did you make a wish while eating the cake?"

"Promised one."

After a long silence, Chen Jifeng said in a low voice, "This is very good."

Wei Yi didn't understand, and asked, "What's good?"

Chen Jifeng answered him: "Even if you celebrate your birthday alone, you will still buy cakes and make serious wishes. This shows that you love yourself very much, even if no one else is around, you still care about yourself. This is very good."

Chen Jifeng smiled and said, "This way I can feel relieved."

Wei Yi stared blankly at Chen Jifeng.After a while, she said softly, "But... I don't like spending my birthday alone."

Every birthday in the past, he was always accompanied by someone.From waking up to see the sun in the morning, to the last moment before going to sleep when the moon covered the night, someone was always by his side.

Wei Yi didn't tell Chen Jifeng that the reason why he ran to the police station to find him with the cake in his arms at night was not because he wanted to give him a cake as he said, but because every moment of the day was too difficult to sit alone. When he was in the quiet space, every experience of loneliness reminded him of the past, reminding him how the people around him left him one by one, repeatedly playing the one he loves getting off the train without looking back and leaving the station, and finally He was left alone in the carriage, counting the flickering reflections that slid across the ground as the train moved on.

He didn't want to tell Chen Jifeng the truth.If he chooses to say some words, he chooses to be vulnerable, and he doesn't want to be vulnerable.

"That's why I'm here to accompany you." Chen Jifeng stretched out his hand, and patted Wei Yi's quilt lightly, like coaxing a child, "I feel better now."

Wei Yi finally couldn't help it, and confessed to Chen Jifeng: "Brother, you are so kind to me, but I always feel that I seem to be taking advantage of your kindness to me..."

Chen Jifeng asked casually: "How to use it?"

"I think it's because I'm too lonely by myself, and if you treat me well, I will especially accept your kindness."

"Oh." Chen Jifeng continued to pat on the quilt, "First, this is not called taking advantage of, and you didn't use the word that way. This is a normal emotion for you. Of course you want to reciprocate when someone treats you well, otherwise you will let yourself How embarrassing it is for someone to put a hot face on a cold ass. Second, this is not loneliness, it is loneliness, and it is also a normal emotion. Talk about being lonely or not, as if we are in a relationship, just using words."

Wei Yi was reprimanded by Chen Jifeng again, so he could only say, "I'm sorry, I used the wrong word."

"Of course I feel lonely when I'm alone. Besides, you're not the only one like this." Chen Jifeng continued, "I'm also lonely sometimes. You always feel that I'm with you, but you're also with me, aren't you?" ?”

"...Did brother think so?"

"Of course, otherwise, why do people want to get married? Because living alone is too tiring. We haven't met our future marriage partner yet, so we will make do with each other and accompany each other. When we meet the other half of our lives , everyone has someone to accompany them, so naturally they won’t feel lonely.”

Wei Yi listened, shrank a little under the quilt, and let out a muffled "hmm".

I understood it, but my mood didn't get better as I imagined.On the contrary, after hearing "Everyone has someone to accompany", Wei Yi inexplicably felt empty in his heart and lost for no reason.
