Xie Qi stared at the phone, startled for a while.

"What's the matter?" Yu Yicheng saw that he was staring at the screen without looking back for a long time, only a little dimple appeared on his face, and he couldn't help guessing, "Have you received good news?"

He nodded slightly.

"It is said that the second round of works will be submitted." He put his mobile phone on the table, "Time is a bit tight."

"When will you come back?"

Yu Yicheng reacted quickly.

"I can't tell," Xie Qi ignored his implication, "Maybe after the year, maybe after the Lantern Festival."

"Where do you live when you come back?"

"..." The young man frowned, "I can't help you."

"Find a place to rent?"

"……not yet."

"No hurry." The man resorted to his habitual retreat, "Go to bed first, Qiqi."

It's easy to call him by his nickname.

Xie Qi deliberately opened a window to sleep - the stale smell mixed with moisture in the room was too strong.

When I opened it, I caught a cold.

Dizzy, and chest tightness, the two children insisted on coming in to make a fuss.

twitter.

He led them out, and his parents told him to take care of his younger brothers and sisters.

Forget it, anyway, I will go back in ten days.

Xie Qi took advantage of the gap after lunch when no one was paying attention to him, and locked the door to sleep.

Before falling asleep, he vaguely heard someone knocking on the door.

When I woke up, it was a mess outside.

As soon as he went out, he was greeted with a loud voice:

"Why didn't you look at your brother?"

"I haven't seen him since lunch."

You must know that the child was still playing with leaves in the main room when he left the banquet.

"He said he was coming to see you."

"I locked the door for a nap and didn't hear it."

His mother didn't speak any more, but her face was ashen.

It's easy to find a meal for everyone.

Fortunately, they found him before dark—the kid was hiding in a small shop at the entrance of the village, listening to TV and watching TV.

Wah-wah cries came from the main room, and as soon as Xie Qi entered the door, he felt eyes from all directions.

But in the end no one spoke, but the atmosphere was a little stiff.

In the next few days, the younger siblings basically never came to him.

If you meet your younger brother running towards him again, you will hear him being called away by another adult.

Occasionally, some gossip in the village said that he did not regard the two children as his own brothers and sisters after all.

He just did not hear.

Originally, the total time we spent together was less than a day, so these scraps of talk can't be said to be all wrong.

It was another few days that were considered peaceful and peaceful.

It's time for New Year's Eve dinner.

Xie Qi was thinking about the idea of ​​the second round of works when a dumpling was caught in the bowl.It was his aunt.

"Thank you auntie."

He looked around and found that the dumplings had been divided.

The two children piled up a mountain in their bowls and were eating happily.

After the meal is to watch the year.

The whole family gathers in the main room—anyway, their bedrooms are upstairs, so they can just go up when the time comes.

After he finished washing, he heard his aunt say, "Qiqi lives in that building, don't lock it yet."

"Why don't you lock it at night?" Someone immediately retorted.

He recognized that it was the original body's father's voice.

"It's okay, I'll go there first and turn on the lights over there to watch the New Year."

"Aren't we together?" My aunt was taken aback, and wanted to persuade him again, but his father had already made a final decision: "That's it."

So be it, he thought silently.The old man lives on the first floor, and I'm afraid I don't really want to see him when I watch the New Year's Eve.

Others have been quite polite these days, only the old man is too lazy to cover up.

That little grandson is the tip of her heart.

I was worried and frightened all afternoon, and I couldn't slow down this month, so I had to talk non-stop.

Without hesitation, Xie Qi went up to the small attic alone.

Still a lonely lamp.

The sound of firecrackers kept ringing outside the window, and occasionally children exclaimed as they watched the fireworks.

But neither fireworks nor firecrackers could be seen from him.

Only a ray of moonlight fell on his desk.

The New Year's Eve dinner is a reunion dinner.

What is Yu Yicheng doing?

He dialed halfway and stopped.

It is estimated that they are drinking and drinking at various banquets, or accompanying their family members in the old house of Yu's family.

Everyone is busy with reunion on New Year's Eve, so it's convenient to disturb.

He dropped his hands, not wanting the call request over there to arrive on time.

"Qi Qi?"

"Where are you?"

There was no noisy sound from Yu Yicheng's side, and the picture was in a small living room.

Turned on a light, a little drowsy, not lively at all.

"In the apartment," the man over there switched the camera, "Look at it."

Beige plush sofas, well-arranged potted plants, and... a well-decorated studio.

"Is that pot full of meat?"

"Didn't you leave? I thought no one was looking after me, so I brought your potted plants over."

"Oh—" Before he finished speaking, he sneezed.

"Why do you have a cold?"

"I've had a cold for a long time." Xie Qi finally stopped his tense expression and looked at him with a weary look, "I haven't been well."

"It's cold in here."

Without air conditioning, he can only cover himself with blankets.

The mat has been covered with a layer, but it is inevitable to be educated again.

Don't be too squeamish or something.

And he didn't even know who the relatives who came out like this one after another to educate him were who.

bother.

"Come back earlier?" Yu Yicheng's voice was as light as a feather, "Everything is set up here, and the coffee pot and ice cream machine have also been bought. I'll make you whatever you want."

After finishing speaking, the man paused, and then said seriously: "If you catch a cold, you should take a good rest, and be careful not to aggravate your condition if you stay uncomfortable."

"Anyway, when I was a child, I was only invited to have a reunion dinner during the Chinese New Year."

Xie Qi grunted.

This is not only the memory of the original owner, but also the situation of his previous life.

It's just that his parents' family background in his previous life was not bad, so he wouldn't be allowed to nest in this small room, and his aunt would take care of him when he was sick.

After... meeting his ex in the true sense, Auntie doesn't need it anymore.

He had had a few good years then.

Then it was gone.

"Qi Qi."

Yu Yicheng didn't say anything more, just called him.

Ever since the man called him by his nickname that day when he was drunk, he never changed his words.

Xie Qi let him go without knowing it.

"Ah."

He responded vaguely, without a clear answer.The man didn't urge him either, but only told him to go to bed early.

The next day to celebrate the new year, the village walked all the way.

Walked all the way, talked and listened all the way.

When I saw one person, there was another person who told me to "help your younger brothers and sisters more in the future."

Greeting grandma for the New Year, I was also told to look after my younger brother more.

Among the juniors, he was the only one who didn't receive the red envelope.

It is said that there are fewer purchases, and he is the oldest one, and he is already in college, so forget it.

Also.

Everything is in order.

Then according to the rules of his childhood, he can go too.

Xie Qi said in the group.

Everyone advised him to save more.

Grandpa also snorted, saying, what are you rushing back to do when you just arrived? Did someone kick you out?

He just said it was a job requirement.One more thing to add, this is also a practice since childhood.

No one said anything.

Before boarding the plane, he sent a message to Yu Yicheng.

A few hours later, exit the airport.

The scene in his imagination came true.

The person who picked him up hugged him in the hall.

This time he didn't hide, but stretched out his arms to hug her back.

So Yu Yicheng always had a smile on his face while driving.

His new room is not much different from his previous one, except that the lighting and ventilation are several times better, and there are more bookcases.

"these things?"

"I just went to your house to move it." Yu Yicheng hugged him, frowning at the coolness on his skin, "Go take a bath."

Xie Qi has not been so obedient for a long time.

The skin of the young man coming out of the hot air was fairer, and there seemed to be water in his eyes.

Yu Yicheng has already put away the contents of the package for him.

His books, his clothes, his easel, one by one, are all laid out according to his habit, which is pleasing to his eyes.

"Drink medicine."

"...I'm almost ready!"

"How many days has it been?" The man touched his forehead, "Have you not taken your medicine?"

The young man nodded silently.

He has always been too lazy to take medicine, and it always feels inconvenient there.

"The medicine I don't want to drink..."

"I'll just drink it once tonight, and I'll buy you pills tomorrow."

"No."

Xie Qi's temper that had been suppressed for the past few days suddenly came up: "I just hate drinking—"

Before he finished speaking, he was picked up by Yu Yicheng, and the two of them nestled on the sofa.

When Yu Yicheng kissed his side face, it was always soft like spring rain.

"Tired these days, aren't you?"

"En." The young man in his arms snorted softly, and even... took the initiative to press his face to his chest.

Aware of this, Yu Yicheng breathed lightly.

Xie Qi's post seemed to fill his heart.

"The medicine will be taken later."

The little lover immediately turned bitter.

It was written brightly on his face: Why do you still want to drink?

like a child.

Yu Yicheng coaxed him again, but Xie Qi responded humbly, and refused to accept his medicine anyway.

It's really helpless.

He did not forget the young man's slightly pale face when he first saw Xie Qi.

Now that the room is so warm, Xie Qi's hands and feet are still cold, and his nose is also red.

After so many days, it is not good. How can I do without medicine.

"Then how about—" Call for a quick delivery and bring the capsules and tablets over.Even if he had to wait, he still had to go downstairs—and Xie Qi looked sleepy, not knowing whether he could wait or not.

Forget it, let's eat it tomorrow, and he won't be cold at night.

"How about you feed me."

Xie Qi looked at him with bright eyes suddenly, as if it was purely a whim and had no other meaning.

Yu Yicheng paused, lowered his head and looked at him.

"Hmm——you've been getting better lately," Xie Qi broke away from him after a while, his eyes glistening, "Who told you to kiss me?"

The lips are also a little red and more moist.

"It was my fault."

Yu Yicheng stared at him for a long time with deep eyes.

"Then you are not allowed to—"

"I just want to ask," Yu Yicheng pressed Xie Qi's lips, and interrupted before he finished speaking:

"Hey, can you?"

Xie Qi was stunned.

The face shown to Yu Yicheng has not changed, but he falters when he speaks.

"is it okay?"

Yu Yicheng kept asking, not allowing him to dodge.

"……Can."

Afterwards, he thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't figure out why he popped out these two words.

But he didn't have time to think about it right now.

——Yu Yicheng is a practical man.

The smell of medicine that he hated most in the past has changed.

After drinking the medicine, my face and lips were also red.

After that, Yu Yicheng was still considerate and coaxed him to sleep.

He was too tired, so they did nothing.

Just when he was about to fall asleep, Yu Yicheng leaned into his ear and asked in a low voice:

"Should I be a regular?"

He doesn't answer.

Yu Yicheng didn't make trouble with him, but just patted his shoulder and back very gently.

This bed was much bigger than his original room, but Xie Qi still slept next to Yu Yicheng.

For a long time, so long that the moonlight seemed to be spinning around the edge of the window.

There was a soft voice in the silent room:

"it is good."

The author has something to say: I can finally call my wife.
