The number of customers in Chinese supermarkets today is much more surprising, and they are probably stocking up before the festival.

Ning He pushed a shopping cart and kept repeating "Excuseme, excuse me", relying on his agility, he moved quite fluently in the crowd of people shoulder to shoulder.

Ai Xing used to follow two or three steps behind him, but every time Ning He turned around and asked him, "Do you eat mushrooms? Do you want asparagus? Are you allergic to seafood?"

He followed up with a sentence, "Yes", "I don't care", "No allergies".

In the end, Ning He smiled at him and said, "Why is Ai Xing so obedient?"

Hearing this, Ai Xing had black lines on his face and was about to have an attack when he saw a supermarket worker in front of him pushing several boxes of mangoes towards him.The boxes were stacked so high that it almost blocked the worker's sight, and when Ninghe turned his head to talk to him, he was about to collide with him.

Ai Xing took two quick steps, while grabbing Ning He, he raised his hand to block the top box of mangoes to prevent it from falling.

Ning He's height of 176 is half a head shorter than Ai Xing's 182cm.After Ai Xing finished a series of actions, Ning He came back to his senses, and whispered "thank you" to him.Ai Xing looked down at him, and the unspoken slander finally turned into two words, "Look at the road."

So the two of them wandered around for half an hour with the background music filled with "Congratulations on getting rich and congratulations on your wonderfulness", bought nearly three hundred dollars of ingredients, and came out of the supermarket with large and small bags.

Just one trip out of the door, the driver, and the bodyguard.With an increasingly relaxed smile in Ninghe, Ai Xing found that this beautiful young man who seemed harmless to humans and animals was actually quite difficult.

On the way home, Ninghe might be hungry, so he dug out a bag of nougat from the new year's goods he just bought, opened the bag, ate one piece himself, and took out another piece to feed Ai Xing.

Ai Xing shook his head and said, "I'll drive, you eat by yourself."

Ning He didn't force it. After a while, the car stopped at the intersection and waited for the red light.Ning He tried to peel off another piece of candy, pinched the candy through the wrapping paper with his fingers, and handed the exposed half to Ai Xing again, "Taste it."

Ai Xing looked down at the hand stretched out in front of him. Because of the sugar delivery, Ning He's wrist was facing him upwards. In addition, he was hot from being squeezed in the supermarket just now, and his sleeves were rolled up. Ai Xing saw it at a glance. There is a series of numbers tattooed on the inside of his left wrist, which seems to be arranged according to the year, month and day.

Ai Xing had a flash in his mind, what kind of special day would this need to be remembered with a tattoo?

Ning He was still passing the piece of candy, it would be hypocritical for him not to eat it, so he could only take it and stuff it into his mouth.The traffic lights also turned green, and Ai Xing's eyes returned to the road.

Ai Xing is not the kind of person who eats snacks when he has nothing to do. This piece of nougat was so sweet in his mouth that the sweetness did not dissipate from his lips and teeth until he drove home.

He and Ning He entered the house through the back door with New Year's goods. Before they changed their shoes, they received a call from Daniel, saying that they wanted to discuss with him about fixing game bugs. He also said that he had a very creative idea. Whether Ai Xing is at home, I will come to him now.

Both Aixing and Daniel are masters in programming, and have won the first and second prizes in the California High School Programming Contest (HSPC).About half a year ago, they worked together to create a mobile game "Catch the Rabbit!" ", at first it was only spread in a small area within the school and was well received. Later, it was uploaded to the Android store for free download, and gained more than 1.99 users.It was sold at a price of US$20 three months ago, and it continues to be popular, and was named the best mobile game of the year by many digital magazines.At present, nearly [-] users have been accumulated. In addition to the income from game advertisements, Aixing and Daniel have also reaped the first pot of gold in their lives.

Ai Xing looked at Ning He who was filling the refrigerator with food and got a little dizzy.I wondered what would happen if Daniel knew that his super idol had become his brother in law overnight, eating and living together and going shopping together every day! ?

He felt that it was not appropriate to speak out about it for the time being, so he held Daniel on the other end of the phone, said that he came to find him and asked him to wait at home, and then said to Ning He, "I'm going out for a while."

Ning He raised his head from the other side of the refrigerator door in a daze, and asked him hesitantly, "...do you still eat hot pot?"

Ai Xing wanted to answer badly and refused to eat.Anyway, every time he went to Daniel's house, Daniel's mother would keep him for dinner, and he didn't mind spending New Year's Eve with their family, but seeing Ning He's slightly disturbed expression, he swallowed the words again.

"Come back before six o'clock." He said, without directly answering whether he would eat hot pot or not, and without waiting for Ning He to ask again, he grabbed the car keys he had just put down and went out through the back door.

Four hours later, Ai Xing returned home before six o'clock, holding a pot of orchids that Daniel's mother insisted on giving him.

It was getting dark outside, and there were only sporadic vehicles and pedestrians on the streets of the community.

When Ai Xing entered the door, he found that the lights in the front hall were all on, as if Ning He had left them for him specially.He was used to facing the darkness of a room alone when he returned home in the evening, and this rare brightness moved his heart slightly.

At this time, Ai Chengjin's messages continued to come in. First, he asked Ai Xing to take Ning He to find a restaurant for a good meal, and then reminded him to make a video call at night, asking Ai Xing to take the initiative to greet Shao Yin with a happy new year.

This kind of information in the name of caring but asking people to lie down and be small, of course made Ai Xing very upset.He chose to ignore it directly, and by the way, turned Ai Chengjin's WeChat notification to mute.It's just that when he saw Ning He, he was inevitably in a bad mood, with obvious anger.

Ning He was sitting on the sofa in the living room watching American dramas, and it was obvious that he was waiting for dinner.Ai Xing passed by, Ning He stood up and wanted to talk to him, but he said, "I'll take a shower first."—with a cold expression, he didn't even look at Ning He, and disappeared around the corner of the stairs with his coat on .

This excuse to take a bath killed another hour, and it was almost seven o'clock in the evening.After waiting for a long time, Ning He finally exhausted his remaining patience. He only tried to get close to Ai Xing to help his mother Shao Yin relieve her worries.Now I feel that his brother in name is too uncertain and completely unpredictable, so his mind is also darkened.

He wondered if Huairou was unworkable, is there any other way to make Ai Xing not get in trouble with others all day long at home.Unexpectedly, Shao Yin sent a video request at this time, and Ning He answered it immediately, either.

That very brainwashing ringtone kept looping in his hand, and suddenly someone touched the back of his neck.Ning He was so frightened that he turned around and saw Ai Xing standing condescendingly behind him, wondering why this person walked without sound! ?

Ai Xing was standing on the stairs at this time, much taller than Ning He, he stretched out his long arm and picked up his mobile phone, seeing Shao Yin's head dancing across the screen, he could not help but raise the corners of his lips and look at Ning He , "Please, I'll help you put on a play."

Ning He almost told him to roll as far as he could, but right now is not the time for an attack, fortunately the video request over there rang for half a minute and then disconnected by itself.Ning He's eyes turned dark immediately, and he said coldly, "Give me back the phone."

Ning He is only two months away from turning [-], and has already passed the period of changing his voice.If he intends to speak softly, then his voice will appear transparent and clean, revealing the freshness of a teenager; but if he speaks in a deep voice, there will be a bit of coldness that goes against his handsome appearance.

Before Ai Xing had time to speak, the cell phone he was holding rang again, and it was still Shao Yin calling.

Ning He frowned imperceptibly, regretting that he stayed to pass this new year.

Ai Xing stared at him and smiled lightly, "It's not good to let your mother know that we don't like each other at home, and can't even talk properly."

He and Ning He both spoke English before, and even if Ning He spoke Chinese to him, he would reply in English. At this moment, he suddenly took the initiative to speak a fluent Chinese, with a somewhat authentic Beijing accent.Ning He was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Help me, William."

Ai Xing didn't make things difficult for him anymore, he swiped his finger on the screen and connected the video call.

Shao Yin didn't expect Ai Xing to appear in front of the camera. She was quite surprised and called out hesitantly, "Xing Xing? Have you had dinner? Happy New Year..."

Ai Xing might have sensed the deep mother-child relationship between Ning He and Shao Yin, or it might be because of other reasons, but at this moment, his attitude was calm, and he replied, "Aunt Shao, happy new year too."

After speaking, return the phone to Ning He.

Ning He took it, took two steps back, and said to Shao Yin, "Mom, we are all fine at home, how are you and uncle doing?"

The loudspeaker of the video phone was turned on, Shao Yin was probably worried about Ai Xing's presence, so she didn't talk much about herself and Ai Chengjin, but instead told Ning He to get along with her "brother".

Ning He's attitude was sympathetic, and most of his words were "don't worry, of course we will get along well".During this period, he inadvertently made eye contact with Ai Xing, who looked at him playfully with a smile, and mouthed: Make it up, keep making it up.

Ning He wished he could cook and eat Ai Xing tonight, but his face didn't show at all. After finishing the phone call peacefully, he turned around again and found that Ai Xing was no longer in the living room.The lights came on down the corridor, and there was the clatter of dishes in the dining room.

He walked through the corridor and entered the restaurant. Ai Xing was already sitting at the table, holding two pieces of mutton with his chopsticks and boiling them.

Ning He didn't say anything, took a bowl from the dining table by himself, and went to the cooking table to make dipping dishes.

Ai Xing asked him with a lazy smile, "I did you such a favor just now, how can you thank me?"

Ning He tilted his head to stare at him, the previous politeness and friendliness were gone—he knew that Ai Xing was not so easy to fool, and he didn't have to pretend to be respectful to his brothers and sisters, it was better to get straight to the point talk about it.

So he took the bowl and chopsticks and sat down opposite Ai Xing, "Go ahead."

The electric stove was turned on to the maximum gear, and the soup was boiling.Their respective faces were blurred in the white mist.The dishes and soup base are piping hot, but the hearts of the two teenagers lack warmth.

The old calendar year is about to turn its last page.

There is no snow in winter in Los Angeles.The sunset time in February is [-]:[-] pm.At this time, the sky outside was already dark.
