those years

In the first few days when he returned home, Lin Fan was busy helping his parents with shopping, packing things, visiting relatives and friends, and answering the phone...

Qi Tian's phone rang basically every two or three hours, so he was afraid of being discovered so he had to put his phone on vibrate and put it in his trouser pocket.When the phone rang, I didn't dare to answer it right away in front of my parents. When I hid in an empty room, I dared to call back.

Sometimes seeing him not answering the phone, Qi Tian would call his phone over and over again with great reluctance.It was a holiday, and there were many phone calls from classmates about gatherings and New Year's greetings. In the end, Lin Fan was a little "phantom" from the frequent calls, and felt that there was a massager in his trouser pocket all the time.

On New Year's Eve, Lin Fan followed his parents to grandma's house to celebrate the New Year. His father was the eldest in the family, and his sister-in-law and uncle were below him.

As soon as the New Year's bell rang at twelve o'clock, there were deafening firecrackers outside.

Lin Fan was leading his younger siblings who were still in middle school and high school to set off firecrackers at the door, when the phone in his pocket vibrated again. Looking at the phone screen and smiling, Lin Fan hid in a quieter corridor to answer the phone.

"Happy New Year!" Lin Fan said first.

"Your broken signal, I've been calling for almost 10 minutes before I got in." Qi Tian complained over there, "Damn, I should say Happy New Year first."

Lin Fan said with a smile: "Knowing that this battle is not easy, let's join in the fun."

"If others don't call me, why don't I take the initiative?"

"Have you eaten the dumplings?" Lin Fan lowered his head and asked with a smile.

"Eat it, just eat a dumpling to feel like it's Chinese New Year."

A picture of a family sitting far away eating suddenly appeared in Lin Fan's mind, and he asked instead, "Is Zhou Yiming back?"

"Well, I'm back," Qi Tian said unwillingly, "I'm tired of sticking with Wan Lingling every day, and it's hard work to ask him to come out. You said that you used to want to see each other and hit each other. This is a small farewell." Sheng newlyweds!"

After finishing speaking, he asked Lin Fan, "Do you... miss me?"

After hesitating for a while, Lin Fan said, yes.

"What? Didn't hear clearly."

Lin Fan laughed and said that he didn't listen to the settlement.

"Don't forget it, don't forget it," Qi Tian over there suddenly withdrew his joking tone, but said solemnly: "I'm going to make a report."

"What report?" Lin Fan was puzzled.

"I really miss you..."

When these words came from the phone, Lin Fan felt that he should laugh and curse back, but at that moment his heart was warmed by these words, which made him speechless for a while.

At this moment, the door of the house opened, and my sister-in-law poked her head out of the door and shouted, "Lin Fan, it's time to eat dumplings, let them all come in."

After hurriedly saying hello, Lin Fan hung up the phone in a hurry like a caught thief, and looked down at the phone with a black screen. Lin Fan felt that he had let down the man's affection a bit.

……

From the first day to the seventh day of the new year, Lin Fan followed his parents' seven aunts and eight aunts' New Year greetings to relatives. The northerners are hospitable, and they always leave food for dinner wherever they go. After a few days, Lin Fan felt that his waist was thick.

In the past few days, Qi Tian's calls were still on the phone as usual, and the two of them chatted imperceptibly, and sometimes they just talked about what they were doing today, and who's house they went to visit.

On the eighth day of the eighth day, his parents had no other arrangements, and Lin Fan finally had the opportunity to rest at home for a day.Going for a run outside the community in the morning, chatting with my parents at home during the day, and playing chess with my dad, the day passed like this.

It was only at night that he felt that something was wrong, and Qi Tian hadn't called a single call all day.Looking at his watch, it was just after 9 o'clock, thinking that it wasn't too late, so Lin Fan went downstairs and dialed Qi Tian's number on the pretext of going out for a stroll.

Every time it was that person who called first, Lin Fan rarely took the initiative to call. When he just lowered his head and smiled and waited to be connected, there was a sound that the other party had turned off the phone. After reconfirming that the number was correct, Lin Fan dialed again. past.

……

Lin Fan frowned and stared at the phone in a daze, it's not Qi Tian's style to turn off the phone so early, could something happen?

Only then did he realize that if he lost contact with Qi Tian, ​​he would have no way of finding Qi Tian at all. He suddenly regretted that he didn't ask for a phone number from Qi Tian's house before he left, otherwise he would call in the name of a classmate this time around. It's nothing to ask in the past.

Did Zhou Ming drink too much?Don't drink and drive?Lin Fan took a breath of the bitter air, and told himself not to think about these new year's eve, it might be because the battery of the phone is dead.

When it was nearly 11 o'clock in the evening, Lin Fan finally gave up after calling again and still not getting through, but before going to bed, he simply put the phone next to the pillow, thinking that he would not miss the call.

It was estimated that only about ten minutes had passed before the phone vibrated. After seeing the name displayed on the screen, Lin Fan finally smiled down-to-earth, then answered the phone in a low voice and said, "Why is it so quiet today..."

"It's too fucking cold here in your house..."

Lin Fan lifted the quilt and sat up and said, "What did you say?"

It felt like Qi Tian's chattering teeth came from the phone: "I'm already wearing two layers of long johns..."

"……Where are you?"

"Airport, your airport..."

……

After greeting his parents, Lin Fan rushed downstairs. He felt that what he had explained just now was a bit too detailed. He was afraid that his parents would become suspicious, so he explained all the ins and outs that he could think of.He said that his college classmates were going to see the snow scene, and he had heard him introduce him before, but he didn't expect to come here without saying hello this time. Fortunately, his parents understood that it was cold and they should bring the classmates back to live.

But when he got to the road, he realized that due to the Chinese New Year, most of the taxis had already closed early and went home...

After running to find a few intersections, Lin Fan stopped an out-of-service taxi in the middle of the road. After begging for a long time and promising to pay double the price for a round trip, the driver reluctantly agreed.

It is estimated that the passengers on the same flight have already been picked up. When he ran into the airport hall, Lin Fan immediately saw Qi Tian, ​​who was dressed the same as when he was in Beijing, stomping his feet in the middle of the empty hall. .

……

Hearing the sound of someone running in, Qi Tian turned around and turned to him, and then Lin Fan saw the most beautiful smile he had ever seen during that Spring Festival.

He ran over and hugged Qi Tian, ​​who was already shivering from the cold, like a normal friend meeting, and released his arms after a little effort, "Can you not be so crazy?"

Because the airport facilities are not perfect, the inside of the lobby is only a few degrees higher than the outside, and Qi Tian tried to smile with his already frozen cheeks and said, "Today is Valentine's Day."

It wasn't a big city at all, and this festival was even more diluted by the taste of the year at home, so that Lin Fan only remembered it now.

"Why didn't you tell me in advance?" Lin Fan felt distressed, otherwise he wouldn't have stood here for an hour.

"Don't you want to give you a surprise?" Qi Tian said with a smile, "...Actually, I didn't. I didn't know if I could get a ticket. Your family only takes two flights a day. You don't know how difficult it is to buy a ticket." , I didn’t get the one in the morning, but fortunately, someone refunded the ticket for this trip in the evening, so I snatched it up.”

Even though it is empty, there are still sporadic staff at the airport, so Lin Fan could only control his urge to go up to Qi Tian to warm his cheeks, but walked towards the door with his arms around his shoulders and said, "Go home first, don't worry about it." Got a cold."

"But it's really cold in your house, it must be minus 30 degrees." Qi Tian rubbed his hands while walking.

"It's not the coldest time yet, why don't you check the temperature and wear more clothes when you come?"

"I'm so excited to grab the tickets... But I also know it's cold, so I didn't come here with an extra pair of long johns." After finishing speaking, she stretched out her long legs and smiled to signal Lin Fan.

Lin Fan looked at Qi Tian's jeans and sneakers and didn't say anything else. He just grabbed Qi Tian when he was about to go out, took off the scarf around his neck and tied it on Qi Tian, ​​then tightened his clothes, and stood up. Standing up the collar... Qi Tian let him be so busy, just looked at him and smiled.

The taxi was driving on the road, Qi Tian asked the driver: "Master, do you have any better hotels here?"

The master announced two or three names.

"Which one is closest to your home?" Qi Tian turned to ask him.

"Just pull us back to the community." Lin Fan said to the driver.

Lin Fan touched Qi Tian's frozen hand in the dark, quietly placed it in his palm and said warmly, "Go to my house."

……

When he arrived at the community, Qi Tian raised his eyes to look upstairs and asked, "Is this suitable?"

"I know it's inappropriate this time, why did you do it earlier?" Lin Fan pushed his back upstairs.

"But I'm not ready to meet your parents yet..."

Lin Fan patted Qi Tian hard on the back and said, "What are you thinking! I told my parents that you want to see the snow scene and come for a trip."

"Oh..." Qi Tian said with a long tail, but couldn't hear any emotion.

Entering the dark corridor, Qi Tian suddenly pressed Lin Fan against the wall as if he couldn't bear it anymore, and then covered his slightly cool lips.

The longing for so many days finally had an outlet to vent, Qi Tian hooked his tongue and sucked and moved it.The tip of Lin Fan's tongue also took the initiative to poke in, feeling it a little bit. He didn't understand why Qi Tian's breath fascinated him so much. Slowly, Lin Fan's response became enthusiastic. I want to draw out all the gaps like a vacuum...

Although it was late at night, but after all in the corridor, he was afraid that someone would be bumped if he came out, so even though he was indulging, Lin Fan still slowly pushed Qi Tian away.

Qi Tian clung to him and kissed him for a while before he hugged him and said, "You know that I miss you so much?"

Feeling the temperature of Qi Tian's breath on his ear, and smelling the familiar scent of this person, Lin Fan felt for the first time that the nights in northern winter can actually be very warm.

……

Carefully turning the door lock with the key, Lin Fan turned his head and whispered to Qi Tian, ​​"My parents are already asleep, so keep your voice down."

Although Qi Tian nodded in agreement, the moment he opened the door, he still whispered in his ear: "Why do I feel a little excited like having an affair?"

Lin Fan turned his arm back with an elbow, but Qi Tian suppressed a soft "huh".

After the two entered Lin Fan's room on tiptoes, Qi Tian put down his backpack and began to look around the room. He went to the closet for a while, and looked for the bookshelf for a while, but Lin Fan's room was only more than 20 square meters in total. Walk two steps and you're done.

"Have you finished the visit?" Lin Fan found a new set of dental kit and new towels and handed them to him.

Qi Tian nodded and took it over and said: "It's over." Then he looked at the bed in the room, which was slightly smaller than his [-]m bed, and said: "We won't be crushed when we sleep on it."

"...Don't jump or you won't collapse..." Lin Fan gently opened the door and asked, "The toilet is next to it, should I take you there?"

"No need," Qi Tian came over and pinched his waist, then whispered, "I'm fat, it's time to lose weight."

After Qi Tian walked out of the bedroom, Lin Fanzhen seriously looked down at his stomach, and thought with a smile that it was time to lose weight.Then he looked worriedly at his parents' bedroom before turning around and entering the room to make the bed.

……

After Qi Tian returned to the house, Lin Fan was already lying on the bed, "Go to sleep, I'm afraid you will turn over and fall in the middle of the night."

Qi Tian actually looked at Lin Fan with an embarrassed smile before he slowly climbed onto the bed, and after turning off the desk lamp for a while, he felt restless with one hand in the darkness...

Lin Fan suddenly pressed Qi Tian's hand that was already on his trouser waist and said, "Qi Tian, ​​let me tell you, we are a small place here, and my parents are responsible people, they... can't accept this... you know Is it? So in my house for a few days, the two of us have to pack it up, okay?"

In the darkness, Qi Tian was silent for a while, then slowly retracted his hand obediently, and at the same time replied seriously: "Okay..."

Although he couldn't see Qi Tian's expression, Lin Fan could feel that Qi Tian was a little bit wronged. After all, he came all the way and was hit by him as soon as he saw him. Lin Fan couldn't bear it.

So he turned to Qi Tian and said: "I told them that you are my college classmate who came here to visit the snow scene, and tomorrow I will tell them to go with you, and we can stay there for two days."

"Really? Can you stay for two days?" Qi Tian immediately recovered after hearing this.

"Well, it's quite far over there by car for 3 hours, and I won't be able to come back that day." Then he pulled the quilt up for Qi Tian and said, "Go to sleep so late, I'll take you to buy two bags tomorrow morning." Put on thicker clothes."

"Damn! Forgot about the business." Qi Tian suddenly sat up from the bed, and because of the excessive movement, there were bursts of creaking sounds from under the bed.

"Take it easy~~" Lin Fan said anxiously in a low voice.

After groping to turn on the light, Qi Tian got out of bed and started looking through his backpack.

"What are you looking for?" Lin Fan also got out of bed after speaking, "... Lost your ID card?"

Qi Tian didn't respond, so he lowered his head and continued to search. After a while, he took out a rectangular box from his pocket and handed it to Lin Fan, then looked at him and said with a smile, "Valentine's Day gift."

Lin Fan took it silently, and after opening it, he saw a delicate silver Montblanc fountain pen lying inside.

Although many people were used to using carbon pens at that time, because his father asked him to practice calligraphy since he was a child, Lin Fan has always insisted on the habit of using fountain pens.Sometimes when Qi Tian sees him writing his homework in the library, he just shakes his head and says, it looks like it was written by a bully.

Lin Fan held this pen, which was worth a lot of money at first glance, and looked up at Qi Tian under the dim light. Suddenly, his thoughts went back to that day, when he looked back at him under the street lamp and smiled, introducing his boy.

Some time ago when he was struggling in pain, he once regretted his acquaintance with Qi Tian, ​​thinking that if he hadn't met this person, he wouldn't have fallen into such a tangled predicament.

Although Lin Fan has never regretted this month of getting along, he even felt that it was because of this person that he experienced such a beautiful love.But until the moment when he saw Qi Tian who had come so far away just to give him a pen, Lin Fan firmly believed for the first time that it was right to choose this person and decide to start this relationship.

"I didn't see anything you liked, so I bought it casually..." Seeing that he was silent, Qi Tian said while smoothing his hair.

"like."

"Really?" Then Qi Tiantian smiled happily like a child and said, "It's not for nothing."

"I didn't prepare anything. I'll make up for you when you buy clothes tomorrow when you think about it."

Qi Tian climbed onto the bed, put on the quilt and curled up in the quilt and said, "I like whatever you give me, don't be too fussy." After thinking for a while, he said, "Then give me a key chain, I just hang the car keys on it."

After carefully putting the pen away in the back of the drawer, Lin Fan turned off the light and lay down next to Qi Tian and said, "Okay, I'll go buy it tomorrow."
