On the way home from the supermarket, Ai Xing realized that Ning He was not an easy person.Now, it was Ning He's turn to realize that Ai Xing was not easy.

His 17-year-old brother was not in a hurry to negotiate terms, but ate almost the entire beef and mutton platter with a good appetite before saying to him, "Don't worry, eat first, let me think about it."

Ning He knew that he had planned for a long time, and he was just making things difficult for himself at this time, but he didn't want to hand over the initiative to Ai Xing, so he ate in silence for a while, and stopped talking to him.

Compared with Ai Xing who is growing up, Ning He has always eaten less.In addition, he waited too long for Ai Xing to come home tonight, and he was too hungry for his meal, so he just ate some tofu and shrimp dumplings, and put down his chopsticks when he felt that he had no appetite.

Ai Xing was still putting food into the pot. He had already taken out a Luckystrike from the cigarette case and held it between his lips. Then he walked out of the restaurant and entered the backyard. With the lighter in his hand, he lit the cigarette for himself.

In February, the temperature difference between day and night in Los Angeles is very large, and the temperature at night has dropped to ten degrees.Ning He wore a long-sleeved T-shirt at home with the heater turned on. He felt chilly when he walked into the backyard, but he wanted to smoke a cigarette to calm down, so he curled up in the rattan rocking chair in the corner of the yard and continued to smoke. .

Within a minute, Ai Xing stood up, picked up a coat that was draped over the back of the chair, walked to the door, and threw it to Ning He.

Ning He subconsciously raised his hand to catch it, and looked at Ai Xing in surprise.

Ai Xing stood against the light, his expression unclear.He touched a can of beer from the wine cabinet standing by the door, and while tearing off the tab, he said, "The background music of the game I developed is too ordinary, please help me with the sound effects, and make an opening music for the game. It needs to match the theme and make people impressed.”

After finishing speaking, seeing Ning He biting his cigarette and staring at him without moving, he pointed to him, "Put on your clothes."

Ning He was surprised by his sudden concern, but he still spread his clothes over his shoulders, and asked him at the same time, "And then?"—The theme song can't be written in vain, Ai Xing always has to make some concessions on housework .

Ai Xing took a sip of his wine, and his voice became quieter, "Didn't you say that you will move out next month? Me too."

Ning He was stunned, "...what?"

Ai Xing seemed to smile, "I wanted to move out to live by myself early in the morning. It happens that Ai Chengjin is getting married too, so let's give them the world of two people." After a pause, he said, "Is this okay? You don't have to worry about Shao Yin being made things difficult by me, she can live here justifiably and become Mrs. Ai from now on."

Ning He didn't expect Ai Xing to give him such an answer, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.Wouldn't it be too selfish to let a child who is still in high school and is about to take the SAT (American College Entrance Examination) move out of the house, if it clears the way for his mother to remarry without stopping her...

While he was hesitating, Ai Xing put down the wine jar and walked towards him.

Ning He didn't know if he was a little stiff from the cold, and his eyes kept falling on Ai Xing, without shyness at all.Ai Xing has tall legs and long legs, but he can reach him in a few steps.

Ning He's complexion was slightly pale, but his black eyes seemed to hide the moving starlight. The way he looked up at Ai Xing for no reason reminded him of the raging summer night at the music festival half a year ago.

Ai Xing was caught off guard for a while, and he didn't know what was going on in his mind. He stretched out his hand and took off the cigarette between Ning He's lips. The part of the cigarette butt clustered with sparks was flexibly turned inward by his fingers to face himself, and then he clasped it with his thumb and forefinger. He pinched Ning He's jaw and said to him, "Are you satisfied with this?"

Ning He's brain shut down instantly, and when he realized that Ai Xing was pinching his face, he immediately wanted to escape, but forgot that he was sitting in the rocking chair, and lost his balance all at once.

The rattan armrest of the rocking chair was old and loose. Ning He pushed it suddenly, and the armrest broke suddenly. It was Ai Xing who was quick and quick, and grabbed him.

Ning He frowned and scolded, wondering why he, who is usually agile, would lose his mind and embarrass himself in front of Ai Xing frequently?While getting angry at himself, he raised his arms and broke free from Ai Xing's grasp.

Ai Xing let him go, looked down at the crumbling cane, smiled lightly, "I broke the cane chair just two days after I came home, you are a bit destructive."

Ning He glanced at him and said, "I'll pay you how much." He didn't forget to add, "Remember what you promised, I will make the game music within a week." After finishing speaking, he walked into the house.

Ai Xing followed him back to the restaurant. Seeing that Ning He didn't intend to stop, it seemed that he had finished eating the hot pot with a few chopsticks, so he couldn't help reaching out to hold him back.

Ning He turned to look at him with a puzzled face.

There was a few seconds of silence between the two.Ai Xing said, "You eat too little, eat some more with me."

Ning He opened his eyes slightly - does this person know what he is talking about?

He couldn't laugh or cry for a while, "I'm full."

Ai Xing didn't let go, and said, "You eat as little as a bird, can that be called full? Sit down, and I will cook for you."

The two confronted each other for a while, and finally Ning He sat back in his chair and began to eat the fish fillets that Ai Xing fed him.He chewed the fish, and couldn't help asking himself: What's going on?I have never been a person who can be forced, why Ai Xing can?
