Sir, I'm not good

The place where Shu Xian lived was equipped with both heating and underfloor heating, and the pot of bells and crabapples that Bai Yu had raised in the past were urged to open.

So when Xu Zhi knocked on the door, he saw Shu Xian standing in front of him wearing a baggy white long-sleeved T-shirt and a pair of dark blue knee-length shorts.

"... Hello, senior."

I don't know if it's because Shu Xian's dress was unexpected, or because he was excited to see Shu Xian again, Xu Zhi hesitated for a moment before greeting Shu Xian, his movements were a little stiff.

The moment Shu Xian opened the door and saw Xu Zhi's face, his expression froze, and the words "you are finally back" came to his lips.

After Xu Zhi made a sound, Shu Xian regained his composure, curled his lips into a smile, and let Xu Zhi enter the door sideways.

"Put this on first. The slippers don't have your number. I'll buy you a pair next time."

Shu Xian put a pair of disposable slippers at Xu Zhi's feet, and after Xu Zhi changed his shoes, he straightened them with the toe facing outward, so that he could wear them when he went out.

"...Senior, you are so gentle, why don't you have a boyfriend?"

Seeing Shu Xian's actions, Xu Zhi felt his soft heart being poked. How could there be such a delicate and gentle person?

Shu Xian got up and looked at Xu Zhi, smiled, and was not in a hurry to answer Xu Zhi.

Shu Xian knew very well that the word gentle did not deserve him.

Xu Zhi thinks he is good now, and he only came to this conclusion when looking at him from the current perspective.

In other words, Xu Zhi knew nothing.

"The reason for not having a boyfriend may be that I just got divorced the day before yesterday."

Shu Xian didn't speak until Xu Zhi was brought to the living room to sit down.

Xu Zhi suddenly remembered the news on Weibo.Shu Xian is married to that business genius Gu Yinian.

"You got divorced the day before yesterday?"

"Yeah." Shu Xian smiled a little weakly, he was always not interested in talking about Gu Yinian.

In addition, Gu Yinian acted too quickly the day before yesterday, and got news from Xu Zhi first, which put him in a passive situation. Now that he thinks about it, he finds it difficult to handle.

Xu Zhi can also feel Shu Xian's emotions, but he can't figure out Shu Xian's thoughts.

Are you unhappy about the divorce?

Because he still loves that scumbag named Gu Yinian?

Or is it because you mentioned it yourself?

Unable to figure it out, Xu Zhi didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he followed Shu Xian in silence.

Shu Xian's silence has always been a glass of white water without waves, cold and thorough, without any color reflected from inside to outside.

And Xu Zhi's silence is more like a black flannelette, a prop used to cover up the fluctuations in his heart.

The two remained silent for a long time, finally Xu Zhi couldn't help but said, "Sorry, I shouldn't have asked you."

"What shouldn't you ask?"

"The thing about your boyfriend reminds you of divorce."

Looking at Xu Zhi's expression, Shu Xian seemed to understand that the child probably thought he had poked a sore spot.

It's also his fault, Gu Yinian has indeed had too much influence on his emotions recently, who made Gu Yinian feel his presence every day.

Thinking of this, Shu Xian softened his expression and voice: "I'm not sad about the divorce, you'll know if you think about it a little bit, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten divorced in the afternoon and asked you out for a drink in the evening."

After hearing this, Xu Zhi thought it made sense.

So he was worrying too much just now?

Suddenly the doorbell rang, and it was the takeaway.

Shu Xian got up to get it, then put the takeaway on the dining table, and called Xu Zhi over.

Xu Zhi got up and walked to the dining table, "You asked me what I wanted for lunch, and you asked me to bring a bottle of vinegar, I thought you were going to cook by yourself." As he said, Xu Zhi took out the bottle of vinegar from his pocket.

"Take off your coat, it's very hot in the house."

"...It's quite hot."

"If you feel hot, you can go to the bedroom and take off two coats, and you won't be cold if you only wear a sweater."

Xu Zhi is indeed a little hot, but he still instinctively wants to refuse such a thing as undressing at Shu Xian's house.

After all, this is not a public place like a bar.

"No senior."

"Then keep warm."

Therefore, Xu Zhi had no choice but to sit at the dining table in his autumn clothes and sweater.

Shu Xian opened the takeaway bag and took out four boxes of dumplings.Xu Zhi was taken aback by this.

He seemed to understand why he was asked to bring a bottle of vinegar.

Although dumplings are indeed a food that is deeply loved by the Chinese people, eating dumplings in this situation is somewhat out of place, right?

This gave him a sense of déjà vu that the festival was coming, and the nagging voices of seven or eight aunts and aunts seemed to be ringing around him.

Seeing Xu Zhi's actions in a daze, Shu Xian asked, "Don't you like dumplings?"

"No, it's just that I haven't eaten for a while."

"Dumplings are eaten during the winter solstice."

"...Is today the winter solstice?"

Shu Xian handed Xu Zhi a pair of chopsticks: "No, the winter solstice is still a week away, bad at math, and didn't learn geography well in high school?"

Xu Zhi took the chopsticks, listened to Shu Xian's words, gradually frowned, showing a confused look, and the hand holding the chopsticks was still hanging in the air for a while.

"It's not the winter solstice, so why eat dumplings?"

"Who said that dumplings can only be eaten during the winter solstice? I may... like dumplings more." Shu Xian said, he picked up a dumpling and dipped it in vinegar and put it in his mouth.

In fact, he doesn't like dumplings at all, and even hates them a little.

But that was all before Bai Yu left.

However, Shu Xian didn't know whether Bai Yu liked to eat dumplings, anyway, the last meal Bai Yu cooked for him was fried dumplings.

Like Gu Yinian, Shu Xian can only find the taste and traces of the past from these tiny things.

Xu Zhi didn't know anything about Shu Xian's past. When Shu Xian said he loved food, he believed it.

So he also took one and put it in his mouth. Soon, he said pleasantly: "This is too delicious!"

"Eat more if it tastes good." After all, it is Su Jinju's dumplings.

During a lunch, apart from these initial exchanges, the rest of the time was quiet.

Shu Xian was taught not to speak when eating since he was a child, and he didn't have the habit of chatting while eating. Xu Zhi felt cramped and dared not speak because it was the first time eating at Shu Xian's house.

The two remained silent until one finished eating.

It was Shu Xian who finished eating first, because of insomnia for three days, his appetite has been poor, so he didn't eat much.

But in order not to make Xu Zhi feel embarrassed eating alone, Shu Xian still put on a show, put a dumpling in the bowl, and took a bite every now and then.

When Xu Zhi put down his chopsticks in satisfaction, Shu Xian ate the remaining morsel.

"I am full?"

Xu Zhi nodded, "Yes!"

"Then, take a nap first, or start learning advanced mathematics directly?"

Shu Xian gave Xu Zhi two choices, but he knew Xu Zhi would choose the second one.

After all, this silly child has a very strong brain power, and activities related to "sleep" must be rejected.

But he still brought it up, just to inadvertently touch Xu Zhi's heartstrings when the two of them are alone.

In many cases, heartbeat is an illusion that can be created.

Sure enough, Xu Zhi was slightly taken aback when he heard his words, and soon returned to normal, but his earlobe was still flushed, maybe it was because he was wearing too much clothes, or maybe he was thinking about something, and his heart was burning hot.

"Let's study."

Like Shu Xian thought, Xu Zhi chose the second one.

"it is good."
