Jiang Bai was about to hand Lu Jitian to Guo Pingan, bent down to pick it up, when he picked up the candy with one hand and put it back into his hat.

Jiang Bai tilted his head, meeting Gu Xu's peaceful gaze.Unexpected, but expected.Although everyone said that Gu Xu was indifferent, Gu Xu was the only one who would take the initiative to help him in the elevator at this time.

Just as Jiang Bai was about to thank him, Gu Xu's phone rang. He picked it up and listened for a while, his eyebrows furrowed unconsciously, and he got off the elevator on the first floor: "I have something to do, I'll be back later."

Guo Pingan asked: "Where are you going so late? How about I and you..."

Before he finished speaking, Gu Xu walked away, and the elevator door slowly closed. Guo Pingan touched his lips, wanted to say something, but swallowed it back abruptly. He drank some wine tonight, and he was much more courageous, muttering in a low voice: " There are people everywhere who want to catch your news, if something is photographed by the paparazzi, I can't afford to walk around."

It was quiet, but it could be heard clearly in the elevator.

Jiang Jiachen smiled gently: "Don't worry, Gu Xu has his own way of doing things."

"Cough, I know." Guo Ping'an pulled the corner of his mouth, "I'm worried that it's not safe for him to go out alone. It's convenient for me to drive."

"I think Brother Guo is even more unsafe." Jiang Bai said suddenly.

Guo Pingan didn't respond: "Huh?"

Jiang Bai hooked his lips: "Drunk driving is prohibited."

Guo Pingan was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed out loud: "Hey, I almost forgot if I didn't mention it. I had a few drinks today, so I'm really even more insecure." He slapped his forehead.

Later, Guo Pingan felt that something was wrong, and there was always a feeling that Jiang Bai was connoting him.

Is it an illusion?

Guo Pingan looked over suspiciously, when the elevator arrived at the parking lot, Jiang Bai drove Lu Jitian out, his expression and movements were as usual.

He must have thought too much.

Guo Pingan shook his slightly heavy head and staggered out.

Everyone was very tired, and the rest was quiet all the way.

Back at the dormitory, Jiang Bai was the first to get out of the car and catch Lu Jitian from below. Guo Pingan was happy to relax, but he was a little worried about Lu Jitian's body at 185, the door was so big, Jiang Bai was as thin as a piece of paper, and he could move Lu Jitian Upstairs?

Looking up, not far away, Jiang Bai had already driven Lu Jitian into the villa.

Guo Pingan: "..."

Lu Jitian's room is the first on the left on the second floor, with his headshot on the door.

Jiang Baiteng pushed open the door, drove Lu Jitian in and threw him on the bed.

Not long after, Jiang Jiachen's voice came from outside the door: "Do you need help?"

Jiang Bai: "I can take off my clothes by myself."

Jiang Jiachen nodded: "Then go back to your room to rest early after you finish your work, you're exhausted today." He closed the door, footsteps walked towards the opposite side, and then there was a sound of closing the door.

Jiang Bai immediately turned to lock the door.

Compared with Gu Xu's simple style, Lu Jitian's room is much more noisy and crowded.

A portable cabinet that occupies the entire wall, a large TV that occupies half of the wall, game controllers and game cassettes are scattered on the carpet, and there is almost no place to stay.A huge poster of himself hangs above the bed, the door of the cloakroom is wide open, a dazzling array of limited-edition sneakers are neatly arranged, and clothes and pants are piled up on the floor.

Jiang Bai had no interest in visiting Lu Jitian's room. After locking the door, he went back to the bed, leaned over and patted Lu Jitian's shoulder: "Wake up."

Lu Jitian fell into a deep sleep, without any movement.

Jiang Bai simply pinched his face: "Hey, wake up."

Lu Jitian groaned in pain, moved under his eyelids, finally opened his eyes, his pupils slowly focused, he looked at the beautiful face looking down on him in a daze, and asked blankly, "Brother, who are you?"

"Never mind who I am." Jiang Bai said concisely, "Let me ask you, do you remember what happened when you were drunk?"

"Brother, no, no." Lu Jitian was very obedient, and said with his tongue out, "Fragments! I can't remember!"

"Very well, the second question." Jiang Bai's eyes sparkled a little, "Where is Su Ge?"

"Su, Su Ge?" Lu Jitian's eyelids opened all at once, he jumped up suddenly, if Jiang Bai hadn't reacted quickly and dodged it in time, he would have almost been hit hard by his head.

Lu Jitian knelt and sat on the head of the bed, well-regulated, and suddenly his mouth shrunk, aggrieved, hugging Jiang Bai's arm and crying: "Brother, do you know where Su Ge is? I can't find him every day! Woohoo!"

Jiang Bai: "..." If he knew, he would still be here to hear him cry?

There was a sticky feeling on the arm, which was caused by Lu Jitian's snot and tears. Jiang Bai stretched out his index finger and pushed away Lu Jitian's forehead: "Don't cry, you're so dirty."

Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed a pack of wet wipes beside the bed, and he quickly pulled out several to wipe his arms.

"Woo--" Lu Jitian was silent for a second, but his eyes were still red, he watched Jiang Bai wipe his hands eagerly, and then threw the wet wipes into the trash can, not daring to cry anymore.

Jiang Bai saw that he couldn't find any useful information from Lu Jitian for the time being, so he looked at the time: "Okay, take off your clothes and go to bed, brother is hungry and wants to go downstairs to eat. Will you take off your clothes?"

Lu Jiji reacted for a while, and the chick pecked at the rice and nodded, raising his face as if begging for praise: "Yes!"

"Then still not taking off?"

Lu Jitian immediately took off his clothes and pants, and when he took off his underwear, Jiang Bai called him in time: "Enough is enough, keep this one."

"Oh!" Lu Jitian crawled into bed, revealing a pair of red eyes, and whispered, "Brother, is this okay?"

"Be good." Jiang Bai turned around and left, "Close your eyes and go to sleep, brother is going to turn off the lights."

Lu Jitian tightly closed his eyes: "Yes! Close them!"

"Sleep without talking."

Lu Jitian stretched out his hand and tightly covered his mouth.

pat.

The room was plunged into darkness, and then the door closed with a "boom".

Jiang Bai was really hungry. During the dinner party, he was too busy getting Lu Jitian drunk and didn't eat anything.

There was a small pot of rice in the refrigerator, and he took out three eggs and a handful of shallots to make golden egg fried rice.

Take only the yolks from the eggs, break them up and set aside, then heat the pan and pour the oil in, and pour out the oil again when the oil has soaked through. Jiang Bai estimated that he could eat two bowls in his current state, so he ordered two bowls of rice and stir-fried them with a spoon. After the bottom-pressed loose rice is fried, quickly pour in the beaten egg liquid, quickly mix the two evenly, and then stir-fry on high heat until the grains are distinct, add salt and pepper, and finally sprinkle with green chopped green onion and serve.

Green chives and golden rice grains complement each other, and the fresh and bright colors make your index finger move. The steam from the curls is rich in egg and rice aromas, and Jiang Bai's stomach growls even more cheerfully.

Jiang Bai felt a little regretful, he should have fried three bowls of rice.

He came out of the kitchen with egg fried rice, the plate hadn't been put down, "squeaky", there was a movement from the entrance, and Gu Xu came in carrying a large black plastic bag.

The four eyes met, Jiang Bai was stunned for a moment, Gu Xu glanced at the fried rice in his hand, then quickly looked away, and walked up the stairs in silence.

Jiang Bai remembered that Gu Xu didn't move his chopsticks much during the dinner.

"Gu Xu."

He called him, "Have a plate of fried rice with golden eggs?"

……

During the meal, Gu Xu remained silent as usual, the only sound in the dining room was the occasional sound of a spoon hitting a porcelain plate.

After eating quietly, Gu Xu took the plate to the kitchen, Jiang Bai cleaned up the table, the black plastic bag that Gu Xu brought back was placed on the foot of the table, unknotted, Jiang Bai went to wipe the table and saw what was inside——

A potted tree.

The emerald green leaves are narrow and slender, with a pointed tip.

It's an orange tree.

Jiang Bai has an orange grove in the mountains, and he is very familiar with orange trees.

Just this orange tree...

His eyes narrowed slightly.

There was the sound of the dishwasher working in the kitchen, and when Gu Xu came out, he saw Jiang Bai squatting in front of his orange tree, pinching the leaves, getting very close.

"What are you doing?" His tone was rarely fluctuating, and he quickly stepped forward to snatch the orange tree from Jiang Bai's hand, carefully wiping the leaf that Jiang Bai touched with his white sleeves.

Jiang Bai still maintained the posture just now, he was stunned for a while, he stood up straight and said, "Sorry, occupational disease."

Although the leaves of this orange tree are still green, the tips of the leaves have begun to wither, and the number of leaves is abnormally small. It is a sick tree.

Gu Xu wiped the leaves and paused: "Occupational disease?"

"My previous job was planting trees." Jiang Bai scratched his eyelids, "After staying with them for a few years, when I saw a sick tree, I didn't consciously start it."

Gu Xu's eyes fell on Jiang Bai's face, and he froze for a few seconds. He slowly retracted his gaze, and then lowered his head to wipe the leaves.

Jiang Bai opened his mouth. In fact, he wanted to ask Gu Xu why he treasured this tree so much, but he knew that Gu Xu would not answer.

In the end, without asking anything, Jiang Bai tugged at the corner of his clothes: "I'm going back to my room first, good night."

Not far away, a voice behind him called him: "Jiang Bai."

The man's voice was deep and low, with a slight rise in the end, obviously without any emotion, but it sounded inexplicably bewitching.

Jiang Bai stopped and turned back: "Huh?"

The light in the living room was a warm creamy yellow light, which made Gu Xu's facial features a lot softer. He put the orange tree on the table, and walked a few steps forward to Jiang Bai: "Stretch out your hand."

Jiang Bai didn't know why, but he still stretched out his hand.

Immediately after—

Something with a slight warmth fell into Jiang Bai's palm.

There is a round, sweet big sunshine orange on the orange candy paper.

Gu Xu said lightly: "This brand has the best orange flavor."

Gu Xu only had the last orange-flavored lollipop left. In the past few months, he has been unable to sleep all night again, and he can barely squint for a while by eating some orange candy before going to bed.

Give it to Jiang Bai, maybe it's because of the half plate of fried rice with eggs, maybe it's because Jiang Bai knows how to plant trees.

In short, he wanted to give him.

Gu Xu carried the orange tree back to the house, and followed the gardener's method, spraying medicine and watering the tree.

After watching intently for a few minutes, the tender green leaf on the top of the tree swayed, swayed, and finally left the treetop and floated lightly to his feet.

Another leaf fell.

What the gardener said just now flashed through Gu Xu's mind: "This time, I really can't save him."

Can't save.

his orange tree.

Gu Xu's hanging hands gradually clenched.

Jiang Bai rarely eats sugar, especially at night.

After taking a shower, he sat cross-legged on the head of the bed, stared at the lollipop for a long time, and tore off the wrapper.

The orange candy is crystal clear under the light, like a beautiful gem. When the ginger is stuffed into the mouth, there is a light sour taste at first, followed by the fresh orange sweetness spread on the tip of the tongue.

After rinsing the mouth, the orange fragrance still remains in the mouth, it is sweet, not the sweetness of artificial saccharin, but the smell of fresh orange peel just peeled off.

It is indeed delicious.

Jiang Bai had candy in his mouth, and the fondant paper glanced at the sign. Just as he turned on his phone to search, Jiang Yunfen called.

Jiang Yunfen said that she didn't hang up until it was almost twelve o'clock. Jiang Bai had a busy day and was very sleepy. Jiang Yunfen was talking all the time, and he echoed a few words from time to time. Later, he fell asleep directly, and the sound of "beep" kept ringing beside the pillow .

The next day, the beeps turned into bang bangs.

At first Jiang Bai thought he was dreaming, so he pulled the quilt over his head, and the bang bang sound became louder and louder. He opened his eyes and lifted the quilt, bounced up and sat up straight, staring at the air, a few minutes later, he looked back Looking at the clock on the bedside table, Beijing time, 6:23.

He scratched his hair randomly, stuffed his feet into his house shoes, got up and slowly opened the door.

squeak--

Lu Jitian was knocking on the door, and the door opened suddenly, his hand flew away, he was stupid for a second, he raised his head to meet Jiang Bai's face, he immediately came back to his senses, instantly flushed like a lion cub whose tail was stepped on Every word on the face: "Why do you take off my underwear and clothes!"

The author has something to say: Xiao Gu: My wife can only eat candy from me.
