back from trouble

The warm and ambiguous smell is like a soft and weightless cloth that fits tightly on his body.

The rare and bright morning light in l city easily penetrated the thin curtains.

The small piece of skin on his cheek that gradually became hot urged him to open his eyes.

The clear pupils immediately reflected the shadows of the people who were extremely close.

He stared blankly and smiled.

Suddenly leaned over, kissed lightly on the corner of the lips illuminated by the sun, and then moved to the lips.As if taking something for himself, I was inexplicably relieved.

Suddenly, as if awakened by his movement, but still half sleepy.Xiao Cheng subconsciously leaned over and kissed back, then remembered and asked vaguely: "Are you awake?"

He obviously didn't wake up, and his chin sank into his warm neck again.

The action just now has caused the thin quilt to slide down, revealing ambiguous and moist traces on the overlapping body.

"How about...sleep again?" Wei Shaoge just said something when he realized that his voice was extremely hoarse, and immediately dropped his voice back, as if whispering in his ear.

In this way, Xiaocheng suddenly became sober.

The back was warmed by the sun, he propped his head up and looked down at him for a while, then slowly lowered his head, dawdling and kissing again.

It seems that the skin under the lips has been cooked by the sun, with a soft and hot breath.

"I want to do something else." Xiao Cheng said each word, his body sank slowly.

"Don't..." Before he finished speaking, his chest stiffened slightly, all the muscles in his body tensed, and then he let out a long breath.

"I'll go get something to eat." Xiao Cheng whispered in his ear, got up and got out of bed.

Since he fell ill last time, the food level at home has improved a lot.

But the level of food at home is not linked to Xiaocheng's cooking skills.

He opened the refrigerator and found a few long peppers, and the small animation of the processing steps was played back and forth on the mobile app——

First cut off the big end of the chili, take out the chili seeds and wash them, soak them in cooking wine for later use.Chop the meat into a sauce, add eggs, mix well with the flour, stuff it into the chili, and then put it directly into the pan and fry it until it changes color. Cut it into rings or peel it off from the middle to eat.

The comments below are easy to say.

Xiaocheng has never had much confidence in cooking. To be cautious, he read it twice before picking out a few peppers and washing them. He carefully cut a hole according to the instructions in the tutorial, and inserted it with a long-handled spoon, bit by bit. Take out the chili seeds.Twelve points of caution are shown in the action, it doesn't seem to be cooking, but it seems to be doing some experimental research in the kitchen.The kind that would explode if you were not careful.

Then put it into cooking wine to marinate, follow the instructions step by step, until the last step, fry the oil in the pan, put it on the chopping board and prepare to cut into slices wrapped with meat, it is still hot when it comes out of the pan, Laughing and studying for a while, he found a fork and pressed it, barely cut into pieces, and put them on a plate.

After finally finishing it, he felt a little sense of accomplishment. He wiped his hands, picked up his phone and took a photo. He was about to send it to Shu Yan to show himself, to show that your son is not just eating and doing.As soon as he finished filming, he looked up and saw Wei Shaoge, who had just taken a shower, his hair was wet, and he was looking at him with a smile on his face.

When the smile was established, he put the phone back.

"Taste one." Wei Shaoge said as he walked over, picked up the fork, and put one into his mouth.

Xiaocheng waited for him to express his feelings, seeing that he swallowed it after eating, and ate another one.

"How is it?" He couldn't help asking.

He sipped his fork and stared intently at the plate that was thrown aside with a smile: "It's delicious."

Laughed when established.

Wei Shaoge glanced at the cooking counter, and took out a few more items from the refrigerator: "It's just that the efficiency needs to be improved, I'll do it later."

Laughing in response, he picked up the fork that Gangwei Shaoge used, and tried to taste one himself, but was caught by the wrist.

Wei Shaoge pulled the fork to his mouth and ate it in one bite.

"Farewell, you have a bad stomach, this is very spicy." He said and took the whole plate away from Xiaocheng's hand, with a playful smile: "It's all mine."

He rolled up his sleeves, removed the cling film from the stuck fish, and rinsed it under water to defrost it.Passed a few shiitake mushrooms to Xiaocheng for him to wash.

The warm water washed away the ice slag on the surface little by little.

"Laughing into..."

"Ok?"

He didn't hear a response for a long time, and turned his head to look at the other party with a smile: "What's the matter."

"It's all right."

Wei Shaoge was about to say something when the cell phone in the bedroom rang.

"Hands are wet, please pick it up for me."

After laughing, he wiped his hands and folded into the bedroom.

The caller ID is "jamie" in English, and a photo of a brown-haired foreigner pops up at the same time.

"Hello."

"Hmm... hello, may I ask who you are?"

Smiling, he pulled his phone away and looked at it again. The young man in the photo held a wine glass in one hand and gave a thumbs up to the camera with the other, with a bright smile.

He didn't know that Wei Shaoge still had other people's photos in his phone?

In other words, he didn't know what was in Wei Shaoge's phone.

Except for the one time, Xiaocheng didn't have the habit of looking through his partner's personal belongings.

It's not because of giving each other private space——

He's not that generous when it comes to his other half.

To be endlessly curious about removal is to be endlessly possessive.

If that person wasn't Wei Shaoge, but someone else, he might not be behaving like he is now.But apart from Wei Shaoge, he couldn't imagine what that person would look like.

He just doesn't want the other person to feel pressured.

He still remembers the advice of the British behavioral and psychoanalytic expert he contacted at the beginning - "Let him try to relax and feel happy."

There was no response on the phone for a long time, and Jamie said "hello" twice.

Smiling and looking at the photo on the call page, he put the phone back to his ear: "What's the matter?"

"Oh, yes... can Wei answer the phone?"

"Wait a minute." Xiaocheng walked to the kitchen and handed the phone over.

Wei Shaoge turned away from his ear, looked at the caller ID, and put his ear on it: "Hi, it's me."

While cutting the potatoes, he said: "... I remember my vacation is not over yet, no no... I'm busy now... I don't think you need to be so enthusiastic." Wei Shaoge shook his head and continued: "I think you just want to watch the fun..." Just as he was about to say a few more words, he saw Xiao Cheng With a somewhat impatient expression, he suddenly let go: "If you insist, then fine, I'm at home now, goodbye."

Xiaocheng put the phone away, casually put it on the dining table, turned around and continued to deal with those mushrooms.

Wei Shaoge cut the potatoes two or three times, glanced at him occasionally, and smiled until his expression returned to normal.

After a while, several dishes were on the table.

The one that Xiaocheng made was placed closest to him, because the long dining table was inconvenient, so they were placed on the table in the living room.

As soon as the chopsticks were put away, the doorbell rang.Xiao Cheng was about to open the door, but was stopped by Wei Shaoge: "I'll go."

The voices of Wei Shaoge and another person came from the door, mixed with many uncommon professional words.

He didn't fully understand it, so he didn't care.

When he took out two spoons and turned them out, he just looked up and met a pair of blue eyes.

It was a young man with brown hair.

He had only seen it not long ago...on the screen of Wei Shaoge's phone.

Smiling and nodding politely, Jamie didn't pay any more attention, but Jamie grabbed Wei Shaoge excitedly, and asked happily: "Wei, is that him? You never introduced him to us! I saw The ring on his hand!"

Wei Shaoge took the file bag from his hand: "I think you can go. Goodbye."

"Wait! Wait!" The other party supported the door with his hands, sniffed hard, and laughed: "This is not the Chinese way of 'hospitality'."

The corner of Wei Shaoge's mouth curled up, and he was about to slap him mercilessly and leave.

His arms wrapped around his waist from behind.

"Since it's Shao Ge's friend, the meal has just been cooked, let's have some together."

Jamie looked along Xiaocheng's arm, and then turned back to Wei Shaoge's face, immediately very proud: "Now you have no objection?"

Wei Shaoge had no choice but to have no objection.

In fact, he didn't want other people to appear beside them...or rather, he didn't want anyone to appear beside Xiaocheng.

He is now able to control himself better, especially some negative emotions, so that he can restrain himself well and not show it.It seems that he also knows that this mentality is actually not normal.

Xiaocheng is an independent person, and a very good adult, he has his own career and circle.

Even though they shared each other's lives now, he was greedily unwilling to share their lives with each other.

If he can't control the other party, he can at least control himself.

He has never formally introduced the existence of Xiaocheng to his colleagues and friends.

It's like someone who got some treasure and was afraid that others would take a second look.

Seeing Xiaocheng's appearance of being able to talk happily with everyone he met for the first time, he gradually fell silent.

He thought of the dream in the morning again. Although he couldn't remember much, the indescribable feeling of loss was still lingering in his chest—as if he missed something extremely important, but he still didn't know it.

"what happened?"

There was a low breath in his ear, and he felt someone approaching him.

Smiling, he put down his chopsticks, touched his forehead with his hand, and asked in a low voice, "Is it uncomfortable?"

Wei Shaoge shook his head: "It's okay."

He hesitated for a moment, put down the bowl and chopsticks: "It's a bit hot, I'm going to wash my face."

He felt a little lost.

He shouldn't be enjoying himself like this.

The cold water splashed on his face, Wei Shaoge slowly clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and restrained himself.

Tighten your waist.

Xiaocheng hugged him from behind and kissed behind his ear: "You don't feel well, what happened."

He turned around and said with a smile, "No..."

Then he was kissed and interrupted the following words.

"Don't say 'no', I can feel it." He lowered his head, gently touched the corner of his mouth, "Tell me about it."

The ending sound of the last word "ba" raised up mischievously.

Wei Shaoge's eyes moved, as if he suddenly remembered something, and said "Yo" softly: "Jamie is still waiting outside, let's go out first."

Clinker laughed and held him tightly: "He's gone."

"what?"

"He said he just wanted to take a closer look at me." Xiao Cheng was also a little baffled, although he was also quite curious about the friends around Wei Shaoge: "And he said he can't eat your cooking, although it smells and tastes bad. very good."

"Why?" Xiao Cheng's expression was a little confused: "His expression... is obviously drooling. Is this a cultural custom in L City? For example, don't eat at the host's house when you visit for the first time?"

The corners of Wei Shaoge's mouth curled up unconsciously.

Seeing that the smile turned into a puzzled look, he was immediately happy.

That's because the other party had tasted his craft, but he smiled and refused, saying that cooking was something he would only do for his lover.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Xiao Cheng stopped thinking about why, and continued to ask him, "En?"

He trapped the opponent with his arms, gentle but tough.

"Hey...it's really nothing." Wei Shaoge hesitated for a moment, and said a little embarrassedly: "I had a bad dream."

"what?"

"I dreamed...I missed you."

"what?"

"I dreamed that we were not only roommates, but also classmates. You and you have a very good relationship..." He frowned, a little dissatisfied: "But we are not together, and I also went abroad in my senior year. gone."

"……and then?"

"Then...I had a bad time abroad, very lonely, very lonely...for some reason I delayed my graduation, but I ended up not working in a medical-related job." He recalled, with an unhappy expression, as if he had said more than Is it a dream, or something I have actually experienced: "Later, I finally returned to China, and I was very, very happy when I thought I could finally see you. I am rarely so happy, but you were not there when the classmates reunited. It's gone."

"what……"

"I woke up the moment I saw your name written on the tombstone." Wei Shaoge suddenly pulled him into his arms, tightened his arms, and took two deep breaths: "You can't Walk."

His voice was dull: "You can't go anywhere."

It took a long time to hear the other party's answer, three irrelevant words——

"I love you."

By your side, I never go far.
