"Your hands are so cold"

Jing Luo stared at the pair of slender hands that were cold and red, and repeated: "Your hands are so cold."

Xie Shu also pulled out his hand and smiled awkwardly: "It's the first time I came to the north, I didn't expect it to be so cold."

Jing Luo stared at his hands, the coolness on his fingertips hadn't completely dissipated, he raised his hand to brush his hair a few times and then nestled back into the sofa: "It's cold outside, but there is heating indoors."

"I have been fascinated by Northern Heating for a long time, and I can finally feel it this time." Xie Shuyi smiled and sat down beside the sofa.

Jing Luo smiled helplessly, looked up at Xie Shuyi, "Are you here for the heating?"

Xie Shu also answered honestly: "There is such a reason, but the real reason is that I really like this place."

"Like it? Why do you like it"

"I can't say it, it's just a feeling... I like it anyway."

Xie Shu was also a little incoherent, but what he said was true. He really had his eyes on this place among many scenic spots, and he couldn't tell the reason.

Maybe, this is where the heart is going?

"Okay." Jing Luo nodded, and said, "But why did you choose this time?"

He didn't wait for Xie Shuyi to reply, and said to himself: "It's not the peak tourist season at this time, and there are no good-looking attractions."

Xie Shu also avoided the first topic, and continued, "It's okay, let's read it next year."

Jing Luo knew what was interesting, saw that he didn't answer, and didn't ask any more questions.

"See what you mean, do you want to stay forever?" Jing Luo asked again.

Xie Shu also nodded: "I have this plan."

He glanced over Jing Luo inadvertently, and saw that he was a little dazed, Xie Shu also had some doubts, and asked tentatively: "Welcome?"

"Welcome, open the door to welcome, who would have trouble with money?"

Xie Shu also smiled, "That's good."

"Okay, you go up and look at the room first, I still have something to do."

Xie Shu also nodded, got up and went to the second floor with his luggage.

Boss Jing said there was something wrong, but it was actually an excuse. He was a little embarrassed and hadn't adapted to being alone in a room with another person.

Carrying his luggage up to the second floor, he chose a room facing the south, which had good lighting and a good location.

He took a look at the room. It has a simple structure and no luxurious decoration. Although the room is simple, it shows a sense of warmth.He hung his clothes in the closet, changed into a set of comfortable home clothes, and put the few books he had with him on the bedside table.

This is his habit, and it may also be an occupational disease. He always reads some books for inspiration before going to bed.

After packing these up, he was able to stand up and take a good look at the city.

Looking out through the window, you can see the flowers in the flower bed and the wicker chairs in the yard, although the flowers are dead and only the stems are left.

Xie Shuyi just stood in front of the window, looking at the courtyard downstairs and this peaceful and peaceful city.When he was in a trance, the phone vibrated. He took out the phone, saw the caller, smiled slightly, picked up the phone and said cheerfully: "Brother Lin"

The person on the other end of the phone stretched his waist and said lazily, "Are you there?"

"Well, I just arrived at the place where I live."

"How is it? Are you still used to it?" The person on the phone asked with a smile,

“I am still used to it. The scenery here is good and the environment is quite quiet”

"That's good, take it easy, how long do you plan to stay?" the person on the phone asked again

"Depends on your mood, go back when you've had enough fun, or you may not go back," Xie Shuyi said jokingly, pushing open the door to the balcony as he spoke.

The person on the phone laughed and said, "Okay, have fun, come back when you've had enough fun, your sister-in-law still misses you coming home for dinner."

"Oh, by the way, there is another important point, don't forget to find inspiration for the new book." Lin Mi instructed again.

Xie Shu also put his hand on the railing of the sun balcony, looking at the distant scenery, he pretended to sigh, and said helplessly: "Brother, you really don't forget to remind me to work all the time."

"Hey... occupational disease, occupational disease."

The two chatted casually for a few more words before hanging up the phone.

Lin Mi stared at the blacked-out phone screen, and sighed in his heart: Ten years have passed, and the sad boy who was full of worries back then has grown up.

The acquaintance of Lin Mi and Xie Shuyi was really accidental. Back then, Lin Mi was just a small editor of a magazine, and one day he accidentally discovered an article written by Xie Shuyi while surfing the Internet.Immediately, he contacted the owner of the article according to the contact information reserved on the article.

After making an appointment to meet, Lin Mi looked at the childish young man in front of him in surprise. He didn't expect that this article was written by a young man who had just grown up.They communicated for a long time. From how to write to how to create, Lin Mi's research on writing is much deeper than Xie Shuyi's. After writing some articles, Xie Shuyi will also discuss with Lin Mi. He put forward his own ideas to Lin Mi. Lin Mi will also give his own suggestions for creative ideas.

After going back and forth, the two became acquainted. Lin Mi was more than ten years older than this boy, so it was logical that he was thanked and called brother.Later Xie Shu also accumulated some fame through writing articles.

When Xie Shuyi was 23 years old, he published his first book "Fantasy in March". This book recorded his life insights when he traveled in March. The concise writing style and delicate feelings attracted him. batch of readers.So far, Xie Shu has also become a famous book writer.

Xie Shu also hung up the phone and looked at the bare trees and the faintly visible hills in the distance.

It's so quiet, he thought to himself, this place is quite suitable for retirement.

A gust of cold wind froze Xie Shuyi back to the room.

It was too cold, and I really realized what it means to be biting cold.

After returning to the room, he obediently got into the quilt. There was a smell of sunshine in the quilt, which seemed to have been dried in advance. The temperature in the room was just right, and his frozen feet were warmed up. He looked at The bright sunshine outside the window made me fall asleep.

Xie Shu upstairs slept comfortably, but Jing Luo downstairs couldn't sleep because of tossing and turning on the bed.

It's not that I have insomnia, it's just that I can't fall asleep because of being happy and excited.

Why happy and excited?

Because this year there is no need to celebrate the New Year alone, this year someone will accompany him. Although it is just a stranger who has never met, it is better than New Year's Eve alone.

After tossing and turning countless times, Boss Jing announced that he failed to fall asleep, so he simply got up and stroked the cat.

When Xie Shuyi woke up, it was already dark, and he was a little hungry. He took the mobile phone on the table and silently checked the time, sat up, put on his shoes, and went downstairs.

"Are you awake?" Jing Luo looked up and lowered his head to tease the cat in his arms.

"Ah."

"How did you sleep?"

"Very good, better than sleeping at home."

...well, this guy is pretty good at talking.

Jing Luo put down the cat, turned around and sat down on the sofa, and continued to ask: "Is there anything missing?"

"No shortage, everything is good." After finishing speaking, he also sat down by the sofa, and said with a smile, "You are a very caring boss."

Jing Luo said without humility: "Of course, serving customers and satisfying customers' needs is the unchanging purpose of our store."

Xie Shu also looked at Jing Luo's serious face, and for some reason, he remembered the propagandist in the advertisement. He couldn't help but smile, "Then I really came to the right place."

After saying this, his stomach growled uncomfortably, and Xie Shu raised his head in embarrassment and asked, "Is there any place to eat nearby?"

"Yes, there is a small supermarket across the road when you turn right when you go out, and there are some small restaurants in the alley behind the supermarket, but..." He paused for a few seconds after speaking.

Seeing that he had stopped talking, Xie Shu asked, "But what?"

"But the taste is not very good, only the Lanzhou ramen is okay."

"Aside from ramen, is there... anything else I can eat?"

"Yes, I did"

Xie Shu raised his head in surprise, and said with an expression of disbelief, "You... know how to cook?"

"What's the matter, who do you look down on?" Jing Luo glanced at him.

"No, I didn't mean that, it's just that you don't look like you can cook." Xie Shu also explained.

Jing Luo said without shame: "It's okay, most people think handsome guys can't cook."

Xie Shuyi was also the first time he saw someone who turned a corner and boasted that he didn't blush, he was really narcissistic, he thought to himself.

However, this face does have the capital of narcissism.

Although Jing Luo gave people a lazy look, but this face was full of youth and very attractive, with a youthful air in the laziness.

"Then can I have a meal here?" Xie Shuyi asked.

"Okay, just give the money."

"That's for sure." Xie Shuyi said that he was about to take out the money, but he couldn't find the wallet after searching for a long time, and then he remembered that he had changed his clothes.

Before Xie Shu could open his mouth, Jing Luo said first, "Pay the money at the last piece, together with the room fee."

Xie Shu also nodded, "OK."

After Jing Luo finished speaking, he got up and walked to the kitchen. As if he remembered something, he turned around and added: "Oh, I forgot to say, I don't support ordering food here, you can eat whatever I do."

Xie Shu was also taken aback, but still nodded, "Okay, I will eat as you cook."

Boss Jing nodded in satisfaction, and asked kindly, "Are there any taboos?"

"Don't eat onions."

"But I like to use scallions to cook in the pot."

Xie Shu was also speechless, thinking to himself why do you still ask me.

Although I thought so in my heart, I still said against my will: "I just don't eat it often, and I can eat a little once in a while."

Jing Luo nodded, "Then I'll do whatever I want." After speaking, he turned and went to the kitchen.

Xie Shuyi: Did you give me a choice?

Xie Shu also looked at Boss Jing's back, regretting his impulsiveness, as if he had entered a black shop.

The meal was surprisingly simple, but luckily it tasted pretty good.

After eating, Xie Shu also cleaned up the dishes based on the principle of being polite.

Ten minutes later, Xie Shuyi appeared beside the sink, fully equipped.

At first he just wanted to put on a show, but seeing the apron tied on his chest, the dish soap on hand, and the tableware piled up in the sink, Xie Shuyi completely resigned himself to his fate. This was obviously prepared for him. ah.

At first he just wanted to be polite, but Boss Jing didn't think he was an outsider at all, he just piled the bowls in front of him, left a sentence of "clean up", and went back to the sofa to pet the cat.

Xie Shu also couldn't figure it out, did he come all the way to wash the dishes?

Bear with it, for the sake of others cooking for you.

After washing the dishes, Xie Shu also shook the water off his hands, and sat down beside the sofa.

Boss Jing was squinting his eyes and taking a nap. Seeing a dark shadow beside him, he didn't open his eyes, "Did you finish washing? Thank you for your hard work."

Xie Shu didn't answer, and said sarcastically, "You've worked really hard."

I don't know whether Boss Jing really didn't hear it or pretended to be confused, he smiled, "It's okay, cooking a few dishes is not too hard."

Xie Shu was also completely speechless, thinking, this person is really...

Just as he was about to make an excuse to escape from here, the cat in Jing Luo's hand crawled to Xie Shuyi's hand at some point, and he couldn't hold back one of them. He raised his hand to touch two, and it felt good, and he touched two more.

The cat made a "purr purr" sound as if it was being touched comfortably, and climbed onto Xie Shuyi's lap.

Xie Shu also seemed to see some novelty, touched the cat again and said with a smile: "What kind of cat, it's very cute."

"Lihuamao." Jing Luo reluctantly opened his eyes for a look, then closed them again.

"Do you have a name?"

"Yes, it's called Laifu."

"Come... Laifu?"

Jing Luo opened his eyes again, but this time he didn't close them again. He said with a serious face, "It's called Laifu, Laifu Laifu, and happiness in the coming year, which means good and auspicious."

"Hmm...it's interesting."

Jing Luo was paralyzed on the sofa, and suddenly said out of nowhere: "You are quite likable."

Xie Shu is also unclear, so: "What?"

"No, it's because you are very attractive to cats. Laifu usually doesn't like others to touch it. I think it is quite happy when you touched it just now."

Xie Shu also smiled and said, "Happy? Can you tell?"

Jing Luo said earnestly and carefully like popular science knowledge: "You just smoothed it and it purred, and the cat meowing like this shows that it is very happy." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Xie Shuyi and continued: "So ..understand?"

"understood."

Xie Shuyi has now been bought by this cat, completely forgetting his experience of washing dishes in the kitchen just now.

After finishing speaking, he hugged Laifu into his arms, Laifu made a heavier grunt, and Xie Shuyi's smile deepened.

Outside the window is the cold winter night with howling wind, and inside is the greenhouse garden that is like spring all the year round.

A house, a cat, and a couple are enough.

The author has something to say:

Xie Shuyi: I love washing dishes, I do it voluntarily.
