It's a human being!

When Zhou Zhou was carried back to the apartment, he was actually a little conscious.

He could feel that Jin Ci washed him briefly, and then put him on the soft and familiar bed, covered with a soft quilt.

The forehead touched—a piece of warm and soft.

"Good night." Jin Ci stroked his furry hair at the temples.

When he got up to leave, his movements stopped in place.

—A thin, white and well-proportioned hand stretched out from under the quilt, grabbing the corner of Jin Ci's clothes recklessly.

The person who was already asleep at this time woke up in a daze for some reason, and looked over with half-closed eyes: "Senior Jin is leaving...don't go..."

That hand had no strength at all, and it could be pulled away with a light push, but Jin Ci seemed to be locked by a thousand-weight chain, unable to break free.

His back was straight and straight, he was silent for a moment, and said, "Dayday is drunk."

It's a pity that drunk people never admit to being drunk.

Zhou Zhou reacted quickly and corrected him stubbornly: "I'm not drunk."

Jin Ci half lowered his eyes, his dark eyes were shrouded in shadows, unable to see any emotion: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

This question is a bit complicated, and it may be beyond his scope of thinking for the time being.

Zhou Zhou looked at him seriously, as if he was really thinking about this problem, but his hand was still tightly holding the corner of Jin Ci's clothes, and he did not let go.

The skin on the side of his face was slightly pink due to drunkenness, and the bright black eyes became more moist, reflecting the warm yellow light like a soft and invisible wave.

Jin Ci restrained his gaze away from his face, and said in a hoarse voice as gently as possible: "Be good, go to sleep."

Zhou Zhou really closed his eyes obediently.

The hand that was grasping the corner of Jin Ci's clothes dropped loosely, pulling towards the bed with a soft force, showing no sign of letting go.

Jin Ci's gaze fell on that hand.

After a while, he exhaled slowly, and the dark golden color in his eyes disappeared into his closed eyes.

There was a light snap, the lights went out, and the whole room was plunged into darkness like thick ink.

When the bedroom door was opened again, the eastern sky was already pale.

Zhou Zhou was carried into the bathroom twice at night, but this time, he really lost consciousness at all.

When he opened his eyes and woke up, it was already afternoon, and he missed the plane home in the morning.

In addition to the hangover headache, there is also a strange ache all over the body, especially in an unspeakable place under the body, which is especially serious.

Zhou Zhou lay sluggishly on the bed, the fragmentary images of last night flashed back in his mind, and the roots of his ears gradually burned.

"woke up?"

The low voice came into the ears with a lazy breath, and Jin Ci's slender and powerful arms wrapped around his waist, pulling him into his arms.

The tip of Zhou Zhou's ear touched a piece of warmth and softness. When the other person breathed, the breath swept across the skin intentionally or unintentionally, as if a fine electric current crawled along the nerve endings. Under the covers.

"hiss--"

He took a deep breath, and then felt a hand on his waist, gently massaging him.

"It hurts? Is this better?"

Zhou Zhou pursed his lips tightly, letting the skin on the side of his neck become thin red, and nodded embarrassingly: "Yeah."

He felt Jin Cigun's hot eyes fall on the back of his head, but he didn't dare to look back at all.

Jin Ci said calmly, "How much do you remember about last night?"

Zhou Zhou: "..."

The memory is so deep that even drunk people can't forget it at all.

Especially when he took the initiative to kiss Jin Ci.

Zhou Zhou almost wanted to bury his head in the pillow.

Afterwards—everything developed too fast, and it was so shocking that people can't recover now.

Jin Ci waited for a while but didn't get an answer, his pretty brows were raised unobtrusively: "Forgot?"

He stopped massaging his waist, clasped Zhou Zhou's jaw with his slender fingers, and turned his face around.

"It's okay to forget, I'll help you remember." He said lightly.

A dangerous golden color flashed faintly in those dark eyes.

The alarm in Zhou Zhou's mind sounded immediately, and his instinctive desire to survive forced him to blurt out: "No, no need, I remember!"

Resolutely no, if you do it again, you will die, right?

Zhou Zhou's whole body was stiff, and he suddenly noticed that there was a hint of a half-smile in the lowered eyes of the other party, and then he realized that he was probably just teasing him just now.

Zhou Zhou: "..."

Jin Ci: "Don't be nervous, I don't need to help you think about it if you remember."

Zhou Zhou was ashamed and annoyed, so he simply turned his head away from him.Beneath the fine black hair was a piece of white and delicate neck skin, marked with unfaded red marks, extending deep into the baggy collar.

Jin Ci looked at it in a good mood for a while, then bowed his head and kissed his ear, and said, "You rest a little longer, and I'll make you something to eat."

Zhou Zhou murmured, watching Jin Ci get up, put on his clothes and walk out of the room, he suddenly had an inexplicable strange feeling.

It was as if they had been living together for a long time, and this was one of the countless ordinary and warm mornings, when he stayed in bed for a while, Jin resigned to make him breakfast.

The golden sun outlines every inch of the outline with brilliance.

Even the air is soaked with a sweet and soft taste.

Zhou Zhou stared at the empty air above for a while, then suddenly turned over and buried himself in the pillow, the tips of his ears were red.

...How could I have such an idea? It's so embarrassing! !

Due to various reasons that are inconvenient to explain, Zhou Zhou delayed going home by one day and bought a ticket for the next day.

Jin Ci also left school the next day.

Thinking of what Shi Hui said before, Zhou Zhou couldn't help being curious: "Is Senior Jin going home for the New Year?"

Jin Ci paused for some reason before replying, "Yes."

Zhou Zhou blinked his eyes: "Thinking about not seeing the senior for more than a month, it feels so long."

There was a sound of the rubbing of the cloth, and Jin Ci's fingertips hooked lightly on his palm, and then the two of them clasped their fingers together.

He asked: "Do you want to come to my house to play during the day?"

Zhou Zhou's eyes lit up: "Is it okay? Will this disturb your family too much..."

"I'm the only one in my family."

"Eh?"

Zhou Zhou froze for a moment.

Jin Ci seemed to think that Zhou Zhou's expression was cute, and he pulled him into his arms with all his strength, and the golden dragon scales on his forehead emerged again.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and kissed Zhou Zhou: "I'm the last one in the clan, and my parents haven't been here since I can remember."

Zhou Zhou was so kissed that he closed his eyes.

"I'm sorry. If that's the case, Senior Jin will go home—wouldn't you feel lonely?"

"Will you come to accompany me every day?"

"Okay... um!"

After a while, Zhou Zhou was panting slightly, trying to move away from Jin Ci's arms unnaturally, but when he was noticed, he hugged him even tighter.

Jin Ci stuck to his ear and smiled softly: "Zhou Zhou is so energetic."

"..."

Zhou Zhou felt like he was about to evaporate.

He hurriedly changed the subject: "By the way, I've always wondered, are everyone other than me really monsters?"

"Monsters." Jin Ci thought for a while, "You can understand it this way, but in fact, most of them are no different from ordinary humans. The blood in their bodies has been getting weaker and weaker with the reproduction of humans from generation to generation. Many people —I can’t visualize the characteristics of blood veins in my life.”

Zhou Zhou nodded half-understood, "Is the characteristic of the bloodline the tail and wings that I can see?"

Jin Ci: "Yes."

No wonder those things sometimes look real, and sometimes they look ethereal. If you dare to touch them one by one, you may be able to feel the difference between entities and illusions.

It's a pity that until now, he hasn't had the nerve to touch the blood characteristics of other people.

The only thing I touched was Jin Ci's.

Moreover, the whole person has actually felt it inside and out.

Jin Ci added: "But pure-blooded humans can't see those."

Zhou Zhou was startled: "I'm not a pure-blood human?!"

Jin Ci: "You are."

Zhou Zhou: "Then why..."

Jin Ci: "Have you seen "My Neighbor Totoro"※? In it, only children can see Totoro, because children can see things that adults cannot see because their minds are pure."

Zhou Zhou: "..."

Sunday is a little chaotic.

Inappropriately, a group of noisy "children" sounded in his head, all of which were Shi Hui's magical voice with various tones.

So is this why Shi Hui always called him a kid?

But he really has grown up! ! ?

— Time Zhou Zhou’s expression was colorful, and he held back a bit aggrieved for a long time — “…but I’m not a kid.”

Jin Ci smiled.

"No one is Totoro."

Zhou Zhou decided not to dwell on this issue.

He thought for a while: "Is it true that monsters can't tell humans their identities?"

Jin Ci: "There is such a rule. A long time ago, there were not many races with blood. In order to smoothly integrate into the huge pure human group, they would help each other to cover up. Many things that cannot be explained by pure human cognition will be claimed. It's an illusion."

He stopped here.

"Who knew that we were so smart in the daytime that we were not deceived."

"..." Zhou Zhou was praised inexplicably.

Although he felt that he had nothing to praise, but when Jin Ci said these words, it was strangely convincing, as if his whole body was so inflated that he was about to lift off.

His fan-like eyelashes trembled, and he said uncomfortably: "Where is he so smart."

Zhou Zhou's earlobe was kissed.

"I……"

Zhou Zhou's lips were kissed again.

"and many more……"

Jin Ci bit his lower lip lightly, looking straight into his dark eyes.

"Why is Zhou Zhou so cute?"
