light-hidden space

4.

The jeep continued on.Xin Yue was relieved to find that Jiang Yinqi's home was not an independent existence, and there were three or four lights scattered nearby.Xin Yue, who grew up in the city, does not have any ability to survive in the wilderness.She has the bottom line only when there are people around.

Perhaps in the snowy night, we can experience the strong temptation of a little light.Whether in the storms of nature or life, the house is always the place that protects us.And the light gives the house an attitude. The house is waiting for the owner to come home and welcoming the guests.

Xin Yue added drama to herself, she couldn't wait to get into that house, she felt that she had been wandering for a long, long time.

Even though he has a strong desire, Xin Yue is still slightly disappointed with the small building in front of him, which is completely different from the various whimsical and creative houses he imagined.The appearance looks the same as ordinary houses, and even looks a little smaller from the hazy outline.As a sanctuary, anyway, it's too good to be true.However, Xin Yue preconceived that this is an architect's house, so it must be different.

"Is it because of the heavy snow? Doesn't this house look very special?" Xin Yue regretted it after she finished speaking, she spoke too quickly. "Um, I mean..."

Xin Yue wanted to make amends, but was interrupted by Jiang Yinqi.

"A house with a ostentatious appearance is equivalent to inviting others to visit. But this is my home." There was no annoyance in the tone, but the words were quite merciless.

The implication is that Jiang Yinqi will not invite others to his home, including Xin Yue.

Xin Yue was extremely depressed and annoyed, she had offended Jiang Yinqi before she rushed into the shelter.Liu Lei said that Jiang Yinqi never looked down on their little cousins.Xin Yue and his little cousins ​​are almost ordinary people.

Xin Yue's understanding of architecture is indeed superficial.

Xin Yue secretly made up his mind to abide by his duty as a guest.Jiang Yinqi's unexpectedly friendly attitude along the way cannot be a reason for her to indulge herself, and then she must keep her mouth shut.No matter what kind of house he sees, Xin Yue is ready to boast with his eyes closed.

The car turned a corner and entered the driveway.The garage door was slowly rising, and Jiang Yinqi drove the Jeep into the garage without stopping. The time was right and the flow was smooth.

To be honest, the garage can be praised.Bright and spacious.Even with Xin Yue's driving skills, he can probably stop the big jeep in one go.Xin Yue immediately boasted, all of which were clichés.Jiang Yinqi ignored her.

It wasn't until the two of them actually entered the house that Xin Yue suddenly understood what Jiang Yinqi said.Just now in the car, Jiang Yinqi asked sarcastically, "You think I live in a museum?" And that sentence, "This is my home."

Home means privacy, not magnificent, not too big, reserved, casual, and most importantly, warm and in line with the emotion of going home.

What Xin Yue immediately felt was the warmth and peace of mind of returning home.

"Wow, we're finally home!" Xin Yue exclaimed.Immediately, I realized that I had forgotten myself again. What happened to this mouth today?Why can't I control it anymore? !

Even though it is a compliment to feel at home, guests can't just call being a guest home, can they?

The warmth and peace of mind of returning home is just Xin Yue's intuition and feeling, without any details to support it.Jiang Yinqi didn't give Xin Yue time to visit the house carefully.

"Xin Yue, I'm sorry, I only have one bedroom here, you have to sleep in my studio."

"It's okay. I'm already very grateful for letting me stay for so long." Xin Yue finally returned to the proper speaking mode.I couldn't help but be surprised that this is a house without guest rooms, and I don't invite others, let alone stay overnight.

"You can choose which studio to live in, there is one here on the first floor," Jiang Yinqi pointed to the right, "There is another one upstairs."

It was only then that Xin Yue noticed that what she saw when she entered the door were only the living room, the dining room and the kitchen.The studio on the first floor is a detached existence, it has an angle turning, so it feels like an independent space.As Xin Yue walked over, he suddenly felt a sense of space. The roof of this area suddenly became higher. There is no longer an upper floor here, but a gable roof.A skylight was actually made on a sloped surface.

If she came in during the day, Xin Yue would choose this place without hesitation, but now it is night, she stared at the skylight, feeling timid.She wondered if she would see ghosts.It was only later that Xin Yue found out that since the skylight faced east, she would not see ghosts, but the rising sun.

Jiang Yinqi saw Xin Yue's hesitation, "Come on, let's go upstairs and have a look."

Going up the curved stairs to the second floor, on the left, Xin Yue saw the first door in the house, and it was closed. It was Jiang Yinqi's bedroom.On the right is the second studio, another open space.

It is still a gable roof, but not as high as downstairs, and the lighting is soft.The studio clearly shows signs of being used.

"This one is called the Winter Palace, and the one downstairs is the Summer Palace." Jiang Yinqi introduced. "You like this one better, don't you?"

"Hmm." Xin Yue nodded repeatedly.It made her feel more at ease here.

Xin Yue became more curious about this house.At this brief glance, there are too many unusual features: there is no guest room, but there are two workshops divided into winter and summer.Except for the mysterious bedroom, all spaces are open and flowing, and have clear functional divisions.

Sure enough, it was the architect's own house, and everything was designed for herself.

Xin Yue suddenly wondered, after she understood the house, would she also understand Jiang Yinqi?
