The day I was confessed by Nianxia DK Jie

"Are you hungry?"

"do not know."

"Have you had dinner yet?"

"No."

"Do you like soba noodles?"

Being asked three questions in a row, Xia Youjie suddenly chuckled, feeling that Ya Xiangli didn't care about taking a step back, and continued to close his eyes and lean on her shoulder, letting her lead him in: "It's better Said it was my favorite, Axiangli."

The reason why I like soba noodles is probably because no matter what, soba noodles are not bad to eat.Regardless of whether it is delicious or inferior, it will generally have the same taste.

There are many ways to do it, but there will not be too many changes in form——

He loves soba noodles.

I don't bother to think about whether Xia Youjie meant anything. He carried the person in the door and threw him at the dining table. Bought ready-made sauces.

"It's actually ready-made?"

"Let's do it, I usually can't spend so much effort to boil the soup."

"Obviously, I was very careful when treating miso soup before."

"Sprinkle a handful of bonito flakes and kelp to compare with the broth. Of course, it's more convenient to just throw things into the pot and then fish them out."

Seeing her pouring tons and tons of sauce into the bowl, and cutting the washed shallots on the cutting board, Xia Youjie propped his chin to watch her busy back and casually squeezed it with his hands. With her hair tied up, her voice became more and more sleepy: "Didn't Yaxiangli have dinner?"

"No, I worked overtime today, and I solved it in the company."

"Then come back to cook noodles?"

"Cook it and put it in the refrigerator, and then divide the sauce into plastic vials for tomorrow's lunch."

"so."

"Forget it, do you like carrots?"

"Ah."

Seeing her busy cutting some radishes and mashing them into puree for decoration, Xia Youjie looked at the nape of her neck that was occasionally exposed due to the shaking of her braids, and slowly turned her head and closed her eyes.There is already a familiar scent of noodles in the air, allowing him to relax a little bit.It's not difficult to show fatigue in front of her - especially he has done it once before, and now he has a kind of fearless calmness.

Obviously it wasn't too long, but the continuous exorcism made him feel tired for the first time.This exhaustion became more and more unbearable with the swallowed spell, but it gradually dissipated because of the slight and dull collision between the chopsticks and the pot now.

After closing his eyes and waiting for a while, he also heard the sound of running water and footsteps coming to his side.

"Wake up, it's dawn."

"Pfft, no matter what, it's impossible for dawn in such a short time, right?"

Looking up, she put down the bowl in front of her. There are light brown noodles in the dark brown soup, with some shallots and white radish on top. It looks like a bowl of the most ordinary soba noodles—even the noodle soup is ready-made of.

But he still likes it.

"Then I'll start."

"Ah."

Pulling away the chair beside her, Ya Xiangli uncomfortably untied the ponytail she had just tied up. Just as she combed her hair again, she heard a light cough from the side: "I think Ya Xiangli's ponytail looks good too."

"...and go eat your supper."

Smiling and lowering his head again, Xia Youjie couldn't tell how long he hadn't eaten food, and he didn't even feel much hunger.The bowl of noodles in front of me is so simple that it can be called simple. When I touch the bowl, I don’t feel hot. The only side dishes are not only shallots and radish puree, but also some boiled mushrooms.

But the soba noodles made by Akari were just right, which made him feel like he was alive again.

"Anything else?"

"Need not."

"So now that we're done eating, do you think this is a place where I can come and go whenever I want?"

Hearing these words that were calmer than threatening, the corners of Xia Youjie's mouth twitched slightly when he really wanted to leave.He still thought about not disturbing her, but did she feel so dissatisfied in the end?

But thinking about it this way, based on her behavior alone, what she said is indeed correct.

After eating, although the blood supply went to the stomach for easy digestion, Xia Youjie smiled quickly because of the carbohydrates he had eaten before, and raised his hand in a very polite manner when he saw her slightly raised chin: "No, how could it be?" .”

"You know where things are anyway, just go and get them yourself. I have to go to work tomorrow, so you can have a good sleep and don't have to send me off."

Xia Youjie's expression didn't change when he heard her words that seemed to be clearing the relationship, but he still nodded as if he was listening very seriously.After Yaxiangli finished everything, she stood up and walked to the white rice that was not so hot, slowly opened the cupboard and took out the meat floss and seaweed: "Also, I keep the spare key in the water dispenser all the time. on top of it. I haven't used it much, so take it."

"..."

key?

Hearing his somewhat surprised response, Ya Xiangli didn't speak, dipped his hands in some water, sprinkled a little salt into the rice, and slowly pinched the rice balls on his hands: "You ate tomorrow's lunch, then tomorrow's dinner I can only use it for dinner. In this case, what do you want to eat tomorrow night?"

Seeing her tie up her hair again, Xia Youjie put the bowl in the sink and answered, as if thinking of something, he laughed again: "Why did Ya Xiangli give me the key?"

On the surface, she was so calm that she didn't bother to pay attention to people, but in fact, Ya Xiang, who had already panicked and didn't know what to say, used a lot of strength to pinch the rice ball.She herself didn't know why she suddenly mentioned this matter. It was as if she had been manipulated just now, and she would have yelled that it was unreasonable.

But it's mainly because... She probably understands why Xia Youjie came to her apartment door and why he came to find her.

It is difficult for a person to show vulnerability to another person, but if it has happened once before, then the second or third time will not be embarrassing, but will be open to each other.

She doesn't know whether to be thankful or sigh now, she is the one who can make Xia Youjie let go of his guard.

"If you're tired, I'll wash the dishes."

"I still have some strength, so don't underestimate me."

"Oh."

The two people standing side by side in the kitchen silently listened to the sound of water flowing. Ya Xiangli slowly shaped the rice balls, and suddenly passed one to the side: "Are you still hungry?"

"A bit."

"Then this is for you."

"What about tomorrow's lunch, Akari?"

"It's okay, I still have lovely juniors to feed me."

Watching Xia Youjie's squinted eyes after hearing this sentence, and the appearance of suddenly opening his mouth to bite on the rice ball, Ya Xiangli snorted softly, but kept holding his hand steadily in mid-air as if feeding: "It's super cute Junior."

"Ah."

He gave a vague response, and when he was trying to chew the rice grains in his mouth, Yaxiangli had already opened the drawer next to him, took out a paper plate and put the rice balls on it, and sealed the other with plastic wrap: "Besides, if you are hungry, you can Isn't it natural to have to eat?"

"There are times when you are not hungry but you must eat."

"Yes, what you eat at this time will make you stronger, but it will also make you weaker."

For example, she often eats chocolate candy desserts because she is on duty in summer, and she gained three catties when she weighed herself yesterday!

"I don't think Akari needn't think about losing weight."

"..."

Suddenly feeling a cross popping out of his head, Ya Xiangli stomped viciously to the side, and listened to Xia Youjie's muffled smile and emphasized: "I'm not fat."

"It's clearly written on my face just now."

"No."

"Yes, yes, no."

"Okay, you go to the bathroom by yourself, I've already tidied everything in advance, you..."

Seeing that he wasn't going to get out of the way, just as Ya Xiangli wanted to go around, she felt the young man behind her lower her head and gently put her forehead on her shoulder again.

"If you go on like this, I'm really going to say that sentence you don't want to hear, sister."

"..."

The whole person seemed to press the rest symbol, Axiangli stood still and let the young man behind him gradually focus on her.Through Xia Tian's thin home clothes, she could easily feel his breath, warm and misty, with a faint hum that seemed to be there, so she didn't even have the strength to take a step forward.

"So I'll try."

"Effort for what?"

"I……"

The rest of the voice dissipated in the air, Ya Xiangli knew that he wanted to say two things before and after, but no matter when these two things were, it seemed a bit too early.

"It's ok."

Ya Xiangli heard herself speaking almost uncontrollably, and her voice was equally ethereal: "My time is very long."

She can wait, and this kind of waiting is not unnecessary.

She covered herself with a steam eye mask when she was lying in bed. Although she always fell asleep quickly, she always felt a little more at ease today than before, so that the alarm clock in the morning no longer seemed so hateful.Hearing the alarm clock ring twice, Ya Xiangli pulled off her blindfold and got up from the bed, feeling as if her spirit had never been so good.

After changing his clothes, he pushed open the door as lightly as possible, turned his head to look at the boy Ya Xiangli who was still sleeping sideways on the sofa, and resisted not to look at it. After stuffing everything into the bag and thinking about it, he took out his wallet and put some money on the table. It was lunch money for a teenager who didn't know if he knew how to cook.

Even this move was out of kindness, and I left a note myself, but no matter how I thought about it, it seemed a little weird.

Pulling the subway ring, Ya Xiangli thought about it with a painful expression on her face. This behavior of hers seemed a little like digging out her wallet and making a fool of herself.

No, no, it is absolutely impossible for her to treat him with this mentality, but it cannot be said to be her mother...

Grinding his teeth, he walked to the company to see that Kaori Inoue hadn't come and Akari didn't care so much, and devoted herself to her work.In the apartment, Xia Youjie slowly turned his head when he heard the sound of the door closing gently, yawned, opened his eyes from the sofa, and picked up the note on the table.

"The writing is beautiful."

Looking at Ya Xiangli's handwriting that was still beautiful even if he just bent down to write, Xia Youjie smiled lightly, and then nodded the lunch money left on the table and curled his lips.

In view of the tragedy of the last dinner, he didn't dare to say how good his cooking was, so he could only accept her kindness.only……

"Sure enough, it's very quiet."

Although it is a well-known ghost apartment, the occupancy rate is a bit low, but since the last time there seems to be nothing else except the magic spirit.It is estimated that Axiangli also knows, so he lives here calmly.

It's just that things like going out can really be done.

Xia Youjie took the key from the slightly recessed part of the bucket on the water dispenser, shook it lightly, and nodded in satisfaction listening to the sound of metal colliding.

It's a bit naive to want to eat the "cute junior" with only one rice ball at noon. If that's the case, then she shouldn't mind if he goes to deliver food to her, right?
