long life

The author says:

In the early morning, Zhou Jing woke up from a burst of fragrance, thinking that she had returned to her mother's house in a trance.

From the kitchen came the faint sound of the clashing of pots, bowls and iron spoons, but the sound was played very lightly, even the knife was very careful when touching the cutting board.

The alarm clock next to the bed showed seven o'clock in the morning, and Zhou Jing sat up from the bed with half-closed eyes. It was the first time in so many days that she woke up earlier than the alarm.

Last night, I slept much more comfortably than usual, and my memory was interrupted after my wild thoughts. Zhou Jing reached out and touched the quilt beside him, and Yu Xiu's body temperature had long since disappeared.

The person cooking in the kitchen was undoubtedly Yu Xiu, Zhou Jing stretched his laziness, got out of bed and walked towards the kitchen.

The door was ajar, and when he approached, a more intense aroma than before wafted through his nostrils. Zhou Jing suddenly became sober, and an uncontrollable desire gradually rose in his stomach.

"Yu Xiuxiu."

Zhou Jing's voice suddenly sounded behind him, Yu Xiu was almost taken aback, turned around and looked at him amusedly, "Why did you wake up so early?"

Zhou Jing yawned lightly and smiled lazily, "I was awakened by the aroma of someone's cooking."

Yu Xiu couldn't help raising his eyebrows, "Is this a one-sided compliment on my good cooking skills?"

"It's a direct explanation."

Zhou Jing smiled, put one hand on his shoulder, and leaned closer to the kitchen counter to look at the ingredients on it. There were slices of bread and some shredded cheese bought in the supermarket the day before yesterday, and two half-boiled eggs were being fried in the pan.

Yu Xiu glanced at him sideways, stretched out his hand to turn down the heat of the fried egg, and said in a low and gentle voice, "I'm going to use the remaining slices of bread to make a simple sandwich, brother hasn't had a normal breakfast for a long time, right?"

"It's been a long time." Zhou Jing thought for a while and asked him, "Why did you remember to cook today?"

Yu Xiu turned the fried egg over and sprinkled some black pepper on it, "I have an exam this morning, so I just woke up because I couldn't sleep."

"Exam?" Zhou Jing frowned slightly, took the spatula from Yu Xiu's hand without hesitation, and urged him: "Go to the books, brother will make breakfast."

Yu Xiu stepped aside casually, shrugged and said, "I've reviewed the exam content no less than ten times, and I'm sure I'll pass it."

Zhou Jing tilted his head to look at him, slightly annoyed, "Then can you guarantee that it's all right?"

"I can... guarantee that the wrong questions will be kept within five questions." Yu Xiu coughed lightly, then turned to wash his hands, "I'll just review the wrong questions again."

Before he left, he specifically ordered hot water to be on the stove, and Zhou Jing let him review with peace of mind, and then skillfully poured out the eggs, cut slices of bread obliquely and put them in the pan.

While waiting, he took out two more cartons of milk from the refrigerator and warmed them in hot water, and added some flower honey to the two cups.

When everything was done and brought out, Yu Xiu seemed to have finished reading the wrong question, and was leaning against the computer desk and flipping through his phone.

"Yu Xiu, it's time for breakfast." Zhou Jing put away the plate with sandwiches and raised her head to greet him.

"Here we come." Yu Xiu walked over holding the phone, fingers still flipping.

Zhou Jing went back to the kitchen to bring hot milk, glanced at Yu Xiu's phone inadvertently while sitting down, and asked, "Why are you so focused?"

"I'm looking for a movie." Yu Xiu picked up the sandwich and took a bite, his eyes couldn't help but brighten, "Brother, the craftsmanship is hidden."

"Wonderful praise." Zhou Jing took the tissue box and put it between the two of them, and asked casually, "What movie are you still looking for at this time?"

Yu Xiu chewed a mouthful of bread and swallowed it, and looked at Zhou Jing with burning eyes, "I mentioned it before, I want to watch a movie with my brother after the exam."

After he reminded him like this, Zhou Jing realized that Yu Xiu had indeed said this sentence, but while talking about it, his nose happened to be hurt, and now thinking about it is still aching.

"Brother, I think No. 20 Eight Fireflies, this movie is not bad, and the rating is quite high."

Yu Xiu handed the phone in front of him, Zhou Jing glanced at it, the cover showed two men and two women, and the score showed [-].

"What kind of movie?"

"Hmm...something about love." Yu Xiu shook his legs restlessly under the table, staring at the phone screen and continued: "It's about a pair of childhood sweethearts, the male lead has always been secretly in love with the female lead, Silently paying for her, the heroine treats him as her brother, and has failed the other party's feelings time and time again."

"It's a pity to hear it." Zhou Jing took a deep breath and said, "In reality, it might be difficult for most people to persevere. After all, unrequited love is painful and tormenting."

"No brother."

Yu Xiu's voice suddenly turned sharp, causing Zhou Jing's hand, which was about to hold the cup, to hover in the air.

The atmosphere froze for a moment, Yu Xiu cleared his throat, and looked away, "Actually, some people in reality are also obsessed. I think the hero of this movie is also. Maybe he just wants to wait for a look back."

Seeing his serious expression, Zhou Jing was inexplicably flustered, so she lowered her head and touched him with her leg, and said angrily, "Brother, I'll just go back and watch with you. Eat quickly, the exam will be over later."

"Understood." Yu Xiu grinned, took a sip of milk and said: "Brother, I promise this time the wrong question... There is no wrong question."

Zhou Jing glanced at him, couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, "Silly boy."
