At seven o'clock in the morning, the sky cleared after a few days of light snow.

It was late in the winter morning, and a ray of bright morning light just broke through the gray clouds, coating the sky with a light golden red edge.

The light entering the glass of the storefront on the adjacent street also cast a layer of glow on the body of the boy lying prone inside.

The clerk walked up to Qin Yuan, who was lying on his stomach, and called softly, "Student, it's time."

Qin Yuan raised his head in a daze and sat up straight.After lying on the ground for several hours, the muscles in the back were tense and a little stiff, and the calves were curled up all the time, and the blood flow was a little blocked.

The circles of his eyes were a little red, and he looked around in a daze, only to wake up from the chaotic dream again.

In the past few days, the people and things in the dream made him dare not recall more and more.

Sometimes it is so clear that it makes people blush and heartbeat. When I wake up, I can remember every movement and expression of Ruan Qingmu, presumptuous, provocative, doing things that I would never do normally, secretive and intimate; while some plots are life and death. I can't think of it, but when I try to think about it, my head hurts badly. I only remember the sadness and grief when I woke up, and it was extremely desolate.

Fortunately it was a dream.

The clerk smiled and handed over several packed breakfasts: "It's just made, it's piping hot."

Qin Yuan also smiled at him: "Thank you for your hard work."

Holding the suitcase in one hand and the lunch box in the other, he pushed open the door.

The winter morning wind blows towards the face, pours into the collar, pours into the nasal cavity, with the freshness and coldness of the first snow.

The streets of Aimin Lane are already very dilapidated, and the drainage system on the road surface is not good. The snow is half-thawed and half-frozen. The leather shoes under Qin Yuan's feet made a slight "creak" sound when he stepped on it.

A lot of people stay up late on New Year's Eve. In the past, people got up early to set off firecrackers, but now they are prohibited. There are no more firecrackers to welcome the new year. On the contrary, it is much quieter than usual working days.

Qin Yuan walked slowly along the side street, looking up to recognize the sign..."Beauty Massage Parlor".

Mu Wanli got up early in the morning, was boiling hot water in the kitchen in advance, and was thinking about how many dumplings to make, when suddenly, there was a light knock on the door outside.

She was taken aback: What's the situation? Their family doesn't have any relatives in the local area. When Brother Qiu left yesterday, he also said that he would accompany his parents to pay New Year's greetings. massage?

The door opened, and in the light morning light outside, a handsome and quiet young man stood there, tall and tall, his brows and eyes reflecting the warm winter sun behind him, shining brightly, but his expression was slightly disturbed: "Hello, Aunt Mu, I'm Ruan Qingmu's classmate, I'm here to pay my respects."

……

Mu Wanli was dumbfounded, holding the big iron spoon high in her hand, and hurriedly let it in after a long time: "Oh, I know you, you are the monitor of the class next door, a top student, your surname is Qin, right?"

At the beginning of this semester, she sent her son to the dormitory. She only saw the child once, and she was so impressed that she recognized him immediately.

While letting Qin Yuan into the room, she raised her voice and called, "Mu Mu!—"

"Auntie, don't call him." Qin Yuan stood awkwardly in the living room, "I'll just wait here for a while, you tell him to sleep a little longer."

Mu Wanli quietly glanced at the suitcase at his feet, feeling worried for a while. Didn't she say that she went to her stepmother's place for the New Year? How did this New Year's Day come about?Didn't celebrate the New Year there, and rushed back overnight?

What kind of shit is this? !

"Sit down, kid. I'll make some hot dumplings for you. I just made them at home last night. Mu Mu kneaded them for me." She hurriedly ran to the kitchen.

Behind him, Qin Yuan hurriedly stood up and said softly, "Auntie, I, I brought some KFC breakfast."

As he spoke, his face turned red. He came in a hurry, and he didn't have time to think about it on the way. Until now, he didn't realize that it was the first time he came here as a guest, and it was the first day of the new year, and he came empty-handed. How many breakfasts did you bring? ...

Mu Wanli smiled: "Try our dumplings, KFC is for Mu Mu."

Regardless of Qin Yuan's objection, she went straight to pat Ruan Qingmu's door: "Mu Mu, my classmates are here to celebrate the New Year, get up quickly."

There was no sound, the little mute was already deaf, and slept soundly in it.

Mu Wanli felt a little embarrassed, and knocked harder on the door: "Mu Mu, Mu Mu!"

It was still quiet, she was a little strange, pushed hard, and the door opened.

? ?On the small bed inside, Xiao Zhuang was sleeping soundly, on Ruan Qingmu's bed outside, the quilt was spread out, and it was empty.

Mu Wanli was stunned on the spot, then turned her head to look at the bathroom, the door was open, the house was only such a big place, this is the first day of the new year, who is it? !

The little mute turned over on the side, and opened his eyes in a daze.As soon as he looked up, he saw Qin Yuan standing at the door, rubbing his eyes foolishly.

No wonder Brother Mu showed him a picture of this person when he was washing his feet last night, so he was going to be a guest at home today.

Qin Yuan took out his mobile phone, dialed Ruan Qingmu's number, and the notification sounded when the phone was turned off.

Mu Wanli touched the phone in her pocket, and suddenly exclaimed: "This kid left me a message!"

A sentence without beginning or end: "Mom, I will go for a morning run in the morning and breathe in the New Year's air! Don't wait for me to eat dumplings!"

Qin Yuan asked with difficulty: "At home...does he have the habit of running in the morning?"

Mu Wanli was a little panicked: "How is it possible, this child is so cute and sleeps late!"

Qin Yuan was also a little dazed: Yes, Ruan Qingmu was dragged by him to get up every day after being in the same dormitory at school for so long, and every time he was a little angry to get up, when he just woke up, he would just ignore him. people.

Mu Wanli pointed at the bed to Xiao Zhuang, knowing that he was unlikely to know, but she still gestured and asked, "Where's your brother Mu? When did you get up?"

The little mute had a strange look in his eyes. He looked at Qin Yuan blankly, then suddenly pointed at him, and made a gesture of making a phone call.

What he meant was that Ruan Qingmu showed him Qin Yuan's photo on his phone yesterday, but Qin Yuan's heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

He walked into the small room, stretched out his hand, and gently touched the messy bed.

It was cold, and it didn't look like it didn't take long to wake up. The master left at some point.

He turned his head: "Aunt Mu, when did you send his message?"

Mu Wanli was stunned, glanced at it, and said blankly: "It's past two o'clock at night?"

What's wrong with this kid, he couldn't sleep at night, so he decided to get up in the morning and go for a morning run, and even left a message?

Qin Yuan's heart beat faster and faster, and a certain absurd idea suddenly jumped into his mind, and he became more and more unable to restrain it.

He said to Mu Wanli in a trembling voice: "Auntie, I'll go out for a run too, maybe I can meet him."

He ran out of the door as soon as he ran, rushed to the door, and bowed to Mu Wanli again: "In case I don't meet him, he is back, you tell him to turn on the phone and call me as soon as possible!  … "

Mu Wanli chased to the door: "Hey, you kid, don't run away! Just sit and wait at home, eat some dumplings to keep warm!"

Qin Yuan ran in stride without stopping, and his clear voice wafted through the alleys of New Year: "Auntie, I'm not cold!"

...It's much easier to take a taxi in the early morning, and there are many relatives who go out to visit. There are already people standing on the side of the road carrying large and small bags of gifts, ready to visit for New Year's greetings.Qin Yuan snatched a car: "Yuyuan, thank you, please drive faster!"

Sitting in the car, looking at the street scene passing by outside the car window and the city gradually coming alive in the morning, his heart was full of sadness.

His Ruan Ruan.His clever and cunning Ruan Ruan, who can't be fooled at all, can see through his Ruan Ruan from clues. ...

The taxi drove into the community and stopped downstairs of his house. He rushed out of the car and rushed to the elevator in one breath. Looking at the constantly beating numbers, his heart beat violently in his chest as if it was about to jump out.

"Ding dong!" The elevator door opened.He rushed out, then stopped abruptly.

There is no one at the door. ...

He stood there blankly, and for a moment, his entire heart was empty.What's wrong?Did he guess wrong, Ruan Qingmu never guessed that he was coming back, did he really go for a morning run?

In the flustered and silent corridor, a vague voice came from a high place, with a tired and soft nasal voice: "It's been a few days,... why are you here now?"

Qin Yuan suddenly raised his head and looked towards the safety stairs next to him.

The light golden morning sun shone in from the small corner window at the corner of the stairs, and a few flying dust danced in the light, jumping together on the body of the curled up boy, reflecting the half of his handsome face hidden under the hat of his hoodie .

With the dust, with the light.It's like waiting there for an unknown amount of time.

In an instant, Qin Yuan quickly closed his eyes, and endured the instant heat in his eyes.

He slowly climbed up the steps, landed on one knee, looked straight at Ruan Qingmu's bewildered handsome face, stretched out his hand, as if afraid of breaking a porcelain doll, and gently touched it. touch his cheek.

It was freezing cold.

"Don't you know to go in and wait?" His voice was hoarse.

Ruan Qingmu stared at him blankly, as if he had finally woken up, and whispered a little wronged, "I don't know the password."

"Why are you hiding here? Can't you go to the guard room of the property?" He asked softly, wanting to complain, but he couldn't bear it after all.

Ruan Qingmu yawned: "It's not cold here."

Qin Yuan's eyes fell on his side, and finally his heart trembled and he understood.

There is a main heating pipe leading to the room. For the sake of aesthetics, most of it is covered with hoses, but there is a small section exposed at the corner, radiating heat outside.If you lean on it, at least there is a place behind you that can be warmer.

He stretched out his hand silently, trying to pull Ruan Qingmu up.But Ruan Qingmu got up together, but she couldn't help baring her teeth: "Fuck!"

The feet are completely numb, and every movement is like a needle prick, like a messy soft-legged shrimp.

Qin Yuan turned around silently and knelt down in front of him: "Ruan Ruan, come up."

Ruan Qingmu was stunned for a moment, picked up the small cake box on the ground with one hand, and the picture frame with the other hand, clasped both hands with difficulty, and obediently lay on his tall and generous back.

The outstretched wrists and hands were cold, staggered across Qin Yuan's neck, and the heavy picture frame hung on Qin Yuan's chest.

The postures of both of them were awkward and difficult, but they both insisted on it. Step by step, Qin Yuan went down the stairs with Ruan Qingmu, who was thin behind him, and walked to the front of the house.

Ruan Qingmu suddenly laughed behind him: "Why do you look like two poor little girls fleeing famine."

Qin Yuan didn't let him go, he supported Ruan Qingmu's thigh with one hand, and pressed the code calmly with the other hand: "Do you see clearly?"

Ruan Qingmu hummed slightly behind him.I see clearly, my student number.Tsk, if you don't talk about this kind of thing, who can guess.

After entering the door, Qin Yuan put him on the sofa, touched his head lightly, and then whispered: "Wait for me, I'll be right back."

Originally planning to live in City Y for a while, all the heating at home was turned off. He ran to the switch, turned on the central air conditioner at home to the maximum, strode into the bathroom, and carefully cleaned the big bathtub with his own hands.

A few days away from home, after all, some fine dust.

After filling a tub full of hot water, he reached out to test the temperature before turning back to the living room.

After such a short time, Ruan Qingmu on the sofa had closed her eyes again, her long eyelashes covered her eyes, and she curled up like a little wild cat that had been severely frozen.

Qin Yuan squatted down in front of the sofa and looked at his face quietly. After a few seconds, he reached out and rubbed his hair: "Go take a hot bath first, or you will catch a cold."

Ruan Qingmu gave a "hmm", stretched out her hand obediently, and took the initiative to lie on his back, allowing him to carry herself into the bathroom.

"Can you do it? You won't slip into the water, right?" Qin Yuan took out a brand new bath towel from the bathroom cabinet, handed it to him, and watched him limping worriedly.

Ruan Qingmu finally woke up, his eyes numb from the cold became more flexible, he slowly took the towel, jumped to the side of the bathtub with one foot, and sat on the edge.

"Qin Shaoxia, you are so hypocritical." His peach blossom eyes were full of water, and he tilted his head and asked, "Then if I say no, will you wash it for me?..."

The bathroom was extremely quiet, only the massage water bubbles in the bathtub made a "gulp" sound, and steam rose up, slowly fogging up the mirror in the bathroom.

Qin Yuan's face turned slightly red, but his eyes didn't dodge. Through the misty mist, his eyes were bright and solemn: "If you need it, I can do it."

Ruan Qingmu was finally defeated in embarrassment, he stared at the person in front of him, gritted his teeth: "Get back, Ai Qing!"

The door was closed from the outside, Ruan Qingmu took off his clothes, and struggled to step into the hot water. The soles of his feet and lower limbs were already terribly numb, but after being soaked in hot water, it became even more unbearable, and it almost irritated him. Did not jump up.

But the hot water is indeed a good thing. After enduring the initial sting, the rest is comfortable from the inside out.The tailbone behind is just the outlet of the water flow, and the rolling water flow hits the skin, and dense air bubbles rise up and shatter around the body.

The cycle goes back and forth, dense and continuous, just thinking about what kind of disturbing and messy little thoughts in my heart at this moment.

"Ruan Ruan, are you still asleep?" Qin Yuan called out in a low voice outside.

Ruan Qingmu bit her lips: "I won't drown, I can swim."

There was no sound outside. After a long while, Qin Yuan's footsteps came lightly, and he walked to the door again: "The new underwear and bathrobe are placed on the stool at the door, you come out and get them yourself."

Ruan Qingmu let out an "oh", looked up at the ceiling of the bathroom, her face was burning.All of a sudden, he sank his head and was completely stuffy in the water.

Damn, he wants to see if the underwear is really one size bigger than himself!

Qin Yuan sat at the door, holding a mobile phone, and whispered to Mu Wanli: "Auntie, don't worry, I happened to meet him outside... um. Yes, he went for a morning jog, and now we are going to go shopping. I won't be going back for a while, sorry."

...The bathroom door opened, and Ruan Qingmu's head stuck out.The whole face was flushed from the steam and hot water, the eyes were watery, and the hair was lying limply on the head.

Qin Yuan picked up the phone, glanced at him quickly, and lowered his eyes again: "... Finished washing?"

Ruan Qingmu glanced at the brand new clothes beside him, shrank behind the frosted stained glass, and said nothing.

Qin Yuan stared blankly at his face: "What's wrong?"

Ruan Qingmu finally roared angrily: "Hand over the clothes! Do you want me to jump out naked to get them?"

Qin Yuan said "ah", his face flushed suddenly, he hurriedly picked up the clothes, took a few steps closer, and handed them over.

Ruan Qingmu rushed over, and quickly closed the door with a "bang".

Pure black underwear with exquisite stitching, and a small dark red flower embroidered on the waist side.

He bit the bullet and put it on, and looked back and forth in the mirror bitterly.Damn, it's really a bit big. ...

Qin Yuan sat upright on the sofa with his back straight, like a silent statue, when he heard the door finally knocked behind him, he turned his head and looked at Ruan Qingmu who was wearing a white thick velvet bathrobe.

He is taller than Ruan Qingmu, and has a bigger frame. He usually buys bathrobes strictly according to his size, and when worn on the thin Ruan Qingmu, he looks a bit empty and big.

He was obviously a flamboyant young man with clear and bright eyes, but now a pair of pure white calves were half exposed, the shape of the ankles underneath was round and beautiful, and the toes were soaked in hot water pink, for some reason, standing there, suddenly There is a feeling that is rarely seen on weekdays.

Can't tell exactly what's different, but it's different.

"I'm going to sleep, I'm so sleepy." Ruan Qingmu turned her head to look in the direction of the bedroom, "You eat the small cake on the coffee table first, at least make up for your birthday, unwrap the present yourself, I drew it."

He waved his hand unnaturally, turned his head and walked towards the bedroom unceremoniously: "For the sake of sitting up for most of the night, please give me the bed. You sleep on the sofa, thank you."

Just as he reached the door, the people behind him had already quickly caught up and hugged him from behind!

"The bed is big." The tall and handsome boy whispered behind him, his voice hoarse, "I sleep well, so I won't disturb you."

Ruan Qingmu's whole body suddenly couldn't move.For a moment, there was only one ridiculous thought left in his mind.

Damn, has this person also traveled through time, why did he tap "acupoints"?Otherwise, why can't I move my whole body now, and my blood seems to be frozen?

The air conditioner in the room was already heated up, and Qin Yuan's breath became even hotter, spraying densely on the back of his neck and around his ears, and his breathing gradually became thicker.

"Ruan Ruan, don't drive me away." His voice gradually became difficult, "My father slapped me, and my stepmother said that the house was in her name. There is no one else around me... They don't want me."

Ruan Qingmu stood quietly, for a long time, he turned around, held Qin Yuan's face seriously, looked into his reddish eyes, as if he was looking at a treasure that he had been looking for for a long time.

"Okay, let's sleep together." He smiled gently, his eyes were red with soreness and sadness, "Let's say it first and don't regret it. From now on, unless you drive me away, I will stay at your house. "

...the bed was really big.The two teenagers lay side by side on it, with a long distance between them, and there was room on both sides.

"Ruan Ruan, how do you know I'm back?" Qin Yuan crossed his hands neatly on his chest and asked softly.

"Because I'm smart, and you're an idiot."

"Ruan Ruan, why don't you turn on the phone?" After a while, Qin Yuan asked again, his voice gradually lowered, as if he was also sleepy.

Ruan Qingmu closed her eyes: "I charged it just before going to sleep. It turned out that it was after two o'clock, and there was only one battery left."

The curtains were drawn, and the room was dark, perfect for sleeping even in the daytime.Ruan Qingmu yawned twice in a daze, tears filled her eyes.

"Ruan Ruan, are you asleep?"

Ruan Qingmu ignored him, her eyelids getting heavier and heavier.Keep screaming and screaming like this, sleep a ghost? ...

"Don't call me Ruan Ruan...call me Big Brother Ruan, Xiaoba Ruan, or Brother Ruan." Confused, he muttered ferociously, "Don't you know that I dare to cut people?"

Just as he was about to fall asleep, a soft voice sounded in his ear.

"Ruan Ruan, you are not allowed to say hacking, hacking, killing, and killing. You should say auspicious and beautiful words during the New Year." Qin Yuan turned sideways lightly, and amidst the slight creaking sound of the bed, a soft and tender kiss fell on Ruan Qingmu unexpectedly. On the soft lips, "So, let's fall in love."
