thirsty

During Li Ke's recovery, Xiao Xiao took good care of him, except for an inexplicable change in his temperament.

When they recovered almost, the two of them returned to the base camp together.

On the way, he tugged Xiao Xiao's arm as usual, but Xiao Xiao stood a little far away from him uncomfortably.

"There is a negotiation next week," Xiao Xiao said, "I'll go with you, can you do it?"

Li Ke had no choice but to lower his hand: "It can be done, don't worry."

"Yeah." Xiao Xiao said.

Faced with such a perfunctory and casual response, Li Ke was a little dazed.

All he knew was that compared to such soft-spoken respectful words, he missed the days when Xiao Xiao yelled at him and punched him before he could say a few words.

"What's wrong with you?" Li Ke looked at him, "Did you take the wrong medicine?"

Xiao Xiao was silent and didn't speak. He walked all the way to the gate of the base camp before he replied: "I'm sick."

Said and fled quickly in the other direction.

So for the rest of the day, he didn't see Xiao Xiao again.

When he came back from the office at night, he walked to the door of Xiao Xiao's room and knocked on the door.

Xiao Xiao was sleeping, and after a while, he poked his head out of the quilt and asked, "Who?"

"Your uncle." Li Ke said.

Xiao Xiao was silent for a moment, got up from the bed and opened the door.

"Is something wrong?" he asked.

"I...can't sleep, so I'm wandering around." Li Ke gave a random reason.

"Wow, you must be tired from shopping, from the door of your room to the door of mine," Xiao Xiao said, "It must be a full 10 meters."

Li Ke didn't want to talk to him: "Are you asleep?"

With his disheveled hair, Xiao Xiao looked at him sleepily: "What do you think?"

"Let me in." Li Ke leaned against the door frame, within his reach.

Xiao Xiao resisted the impulse, and squeezed the doorknob: "I'm already asleep."

"I know," Li Ke felt that it was inexplicably difficult to talk to him, so he repeated, "Let me in."

Xiao Xiao was silent and didn't look at him. The two of them were in a stalemate for a long time before he made up his mind and said, "If you can't sleep, you can walk another 20 meters to find Bai Shen. He has sleeping pills."

After speaking, he immediately closed the door.

Xiao Xiao sat back on the bed and rubbed his hair carelessly.

He doesn't want to go on like this anymore, pestering a person who doesn't like him, waiting for the day when he will show mercy and find out that he is good, and will always be the guardian who follows him everywhere.

It's better to help him get what he wants.

If a heart cannot quench its thirst for a long time, it will dry up sooner or later.

It's better not to drink that glass of water, and you won't feel thirsty.In the relationship between the two of them full of thorns, he could only find such a way out.

Li Ke stood outside in a daze for a while, did not leave immediately, stood in front of his door and lit a cigarette, not in the mood to smoke, watching the tobacco between his fingers burn slowly, flickering in the dark night.

The next morning, Li Ke walked into the restaurant to have breakfast, Xiao Xiao and Lu Xun were sitting together, Xiao Xiao got up quickly: "Lu, I'm done eating, let's go first, give me your information later."

Lu Xun raised his head from the bowl without knowing why, and replied with a dazed expression, "Oh."

Of course Li Ke didn't understand why Xiao Xiao wanted to hide, but he just thought it was okay, maybe he wanted to end the unclear relationship between the two of them.

Although reluctant, he knew it was right.

Li Ke is an important person in Shenhai. As long as it involves work, he must lead by example in everything.If the organization finds that the two are too close, it will definitely cause adverse effects.

He is always so rational, and Xiao Xiao is always so impulsive. If such two people can still get together well, then they really have met the ghosts of the underworld.

Bai Shen also walked into the restaurant, and sat down opposite Lu Xun without ordering anything.

"I haven't recovered yet," Lu Xun looked at his expressionless eyes and laughed, "Would you like to sleep again?"

Bai Shen didn't respond, and still sat there sluggishly.

"I heard that the chef is from your deep sea," Lu Xun said, "I don't even know what Taiwanese buns were made this morning."

Bai Shen slowly turned his head to look at the name of the dish written on the small blackboard, and finally saw it clearly when his eyes focused: "Cubao."

He turned around, reached out and took one and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Hey!" Lu Xun tried his best to hold him back, but he still couldn't catch it, "I haven't eaten yet!"

Bai Shen pulled Lu Xun's plate of guabao in front of him, chewed it slowly and swallowed it, before saying, "There is meat in it."

"No." Lu Xun picked up a pouch and opened it, revealing the stuffing inside, and carefully looked at it: "Huh? Really a little."

"That's right," Bai Shen said, stuffing the second one, and after finishing eating, he picked up the third one, used a spoon to take out the meat inside and ate it, and handed it to Lu Xun, "Eat it, this one has no meat."

Lu Xun took it and clicked his tongue in disgust.

"Tut what tsk," Bai Shen reached out to snatch it, "Give it back to me!"

"No, no, no," Lu Xun turned sideways to escape Bai Shen's clutches, "It was originally mine."

"Is it delicious?" Bai Shen asked.

"It's delicious." Lu Xun said, no matter how he felt that this meal was invited by Bai Shen.

"I used to go to grandma and grandpa's, and they would make this for me too, but the taste is different." Lu Xun said.

"That's right, there's a huge difference without the taste of meat." Bai Shen smiled.

Lu Xun nodded approvingly.

"When did you become a vegetarian?" Bai Shen asked.

"Teens." Lu Xun thought about it carefully, "about 17 years old."

"Is it because you went to the battlefield that you can't accept it?" Bai Shen asked softly.

"I think so." Lu Xun said.

"Actually, this is not your problem," Bai Shen said, "It's been a long time now, and you have experienced so much, you can try to change yourself."

Lu Xun didn't speak, and finished his breakfast in silence.

"Teacher Bai, are you full yet?" Lu Xun asked.

Bai Shen always wanted to laugh when he called himself that, as if he was a social person.

"I'm not full," Bai Shen said, "but I don't want to queue up to buy, it will take a long time."

Lu Xun propped his head and looked at him: "We've already talked about this, shouldn't I be more courteous and buy it for you?"

Well, the apprentice finally got the hang of it, and I am very gratified as a teacher.

Bai Shen couldn't help laughing: "Go, go and make some friends, as a teacher, I have to eat fast."

Lu Xun got up to buy, Bai Shen took out his mobile phone and looked at the news. When he looked up, he sat back again, holding the packed breakfast in his hand.

"Huh? How come it's so fast," Bai Shen took the bag and looked at it, "It's still packed, what's the matter, are you going camping outside?"

Lu Xun took the bag and took out all the things and put them on the table. He moved a little closer and said mysteriously, "I haven't even got in line yet, a girl asked me: Are you helping Bai Shen buy food?" Yeah? Then just give this to me and tell me not to tell you."

When he was talking about girls, he purposely squeezed his throat to imitate the little girl's accent, and continued sourly: "Ms. Bai is so popular. Could it be that the girls used to give breakfast to you, huh?"

Bai smiled deeply, and kicked him under the table: "Really not."

"Oh," Lu Xun deliberately elongated his voice, "Then did the flowers on your table grow out of the cracks in the table tenaciously?"

Bai Shen looked at him talking in a strange way, and thought it was a little cute.

As soon as he picked up a piece of pancake, Lu Xun snatched it from his hand and quickly stuffed it into his mouth.

"Are you still eating?" Bai Shen picked up another piece.

"It's not you who bought it, why do you feel bad?" Lu Xun glared at him angrily, and took a big gulp of anger.

"Then you can eat," Bai Shen said, "dip in some vinegar."

"Let me ask you," Lu Xun said in a low voice, "There are so many girls around you, why are you... right?"

"Just what?" Bai Shen asked him back.

"Just... I..." Lu Xun babbled out a few words like dumpling dumpling in a teapot, and winked at him, "You understand!"

"I don't understand," Bai Shen looked at him and smiled, "There are many people in this world who are kind to you, but there is only one who makes you feel thirsty when you see him."

"Just drink water." Lu Xun said.

"It's just a metaphor," Bai sighed deeply, "It feels like... I want to do something with him, even if we waste time together."

Lu Xun squinted his eyes and looked at him, and said with a half-smile, "Teacher Bai, I think you look like an artist."

"Really," Bai Shen replied casually, "Why?"

"Do you think that love is just love, as long as the souls are right, even an old man, aunt, little sister, or even your own relatives, you can love, it has nothing to do with age, gender, wealth, etc., it's just about love? "Lu Xun managed to say this long paragraph and looked at him expectantly.

"Hmm..." Bai Shen thought for a while, "Almost."

Lu Xun dropped the bitten pancake in his hand, leaned back in his chair, and said very firmly, "Child."

"I'm one year older than you." Bai Shen reminded him friendly.

"Wow, brother, you are so mature." Lu Xun said.

"It's not a question of maturity," Bai Shen quickly found a loophole, "it's a difference of concept."

"Brother, your views may not be mature," Lu Xun said, "I'm different from you. I can't understand your romance at all. You used your view of love to target me who doesn't agree with your view of love."

"Okay." Bai Shen reasoned out what he said, thought about it carefully, and finally smiled, "Maybe I misread it."

"How is that possible!" Lu Xun glared at him, then wrapped all the lunch boxes in front of Bai Shen into his arms and pulled them towards him.

"Give it back to me." Bai Shen sighed helplessly, and said with emotion, "You are much more mature than me."

"Isn't it?" Lu Xun picked and picked, and took a box of freshly sliced ​​lemons, "How do you eat this?"

"Soak in water to drink." Bai Shen looked at him kindly, he had a boyfriend, obviously brought a child, and he was not as obedient as Rarity.

"I want to taste it." Lu Xun opened the box, took out a piece and took a bite, his facial features wrinkled for a moment, but insisted on eating the whole piece, "sour."

Bai Shen looked at him and smiled: "I'll make you a cup tonight."

"Is it because the girl is jealous of me and hurt me on purpose?" Lu Xun asked very seriously.

"I think it's you who are hurting people." Bai Shen exposed it mercilessly.

Lu Xun opened each box with great curiosity, and Bai Shen watched him finish his breakfast, and suddenly remembered something: "In Moscow, the night you went to find Jacob, I waited for you to come back for supper, ordered Two glasses of lemonade, just sitting in a window seat like today."

"Really?" Lu Xun was a little excited when he heard it, and if he didn't know it, he thought the two were talking about something adults were talking about.

"Well, the restaurant will be closed until I'm the only one left," Bai Shen said.

"How long?" Lu Xun asked.

"Two or three hours, maybe." Bai Shen said.

"What about the lemonade?" Lu Xun asked again.

"I drank it." Bai Shen replied.

"Two cups?" Lu Xun couldn't believe it.

"Yes," Bai said with a deep smile, "Actually, it's not particularly sour after soaking in water."

Back at the apartment that night, Lu Xun walked into Bai Shen's room with slippers on after taking a shower, holding a small bag of lemons in his hand.

"I asked the restaurant owner for it," he kicked the door and shouted into the room, "go to the bar for me."

Bai Shen came out of the bathroom brushing his hair, took a lemon and looked at it: "That's it, young master, how can I soak it?"

What Lu Xun brought was a single lemon, which hadn't been sliced ​​yet. In their single rooms, there were no fruit knives and cutting boards.

"Then I won't drink." Lu Xun sat down on Bai Shen's bed angrily, "Anyway, you are not allowed to drink what that girl gave you."

Bai Shen tossed his hair, deliberately shaking Lu Xun's face with water.

He took out the box the girl had given him, opened it, and dropped two lemon slices into the glass.

"If I don't drink it, I'll give it to you so that you can taste the sourness." After finishing speaking, he looked back at him and added, "If you drink it, you have to kneel down and call me Dad."
