Lingering heart palpitations

Chapter 13: Celebration Banquet )

But with Zhou Mo around, it is impossible for mistakes to occur.

"I let Coach Zhang out," Zhou Mo said, "when the game is over."

"What did he say?" Bai Qinglang asked.

"I didn't say anything, I left, I guess I have to wait until I get back to school to settle accounts with you."

"It's not sure who settles accounts with whom," Xu Zi said in his heart, "If you dare to abuse your power to engage in these shady scenes, you can report him when you get back—that's fine, let's not talk about him, it's a disappointment."

Xu Zixin's home is a three-storey villa with a modern and simple style. The front yard is a verdant garden that is regularly pruned by someone. Shelves, a wooden shelf with various ingredients in categories, and a long solid wood dining table.

He ordered the ingredients the day before, and the arranger arranged them.

The fire on the grill has been lit, and a lot of ingredients have been cooked, and they are neatly placed on the dining table. Not long after, someone pushed a dining cart to deliver snacks and wine.

"It's an agreement in advance," Xu Zixin said, "I have to study in the evening in the afternoon, you just have to drink something suitable for the occasion, and don't go to school one by one."

His worries were unnecessary. After the high-intensity game in the morning, no one cared about drinking and was busy eating.

Yu Ji didn't eat much, and helped them bake things in front of the grill, looking quite skilled.

Xu Zixin ate a few mouthfuls casually, then planned and pretended to come to the side of Yu Ji unintentionally. In order not to appear so deliberate, he also randomly took a whole eggplant from the food rack, put it on the grill, and cooked it in a decent manner. The smooth purple skin is brushed with oil and cumin.

Yu Ji looked up at him, pointed to the eggplant in his hand, "This is not baked like this."

Xu Zixin was taken aback for a moment, he really hadn't baked much, and just about to explain, the other party had already taken the eggplant on the bamboo stick in his hand, and gently brushed the back of his hand with his fingertips.

Yu Ji took a knife from the side without knowing it, cut the eggplant in the middle, spread the skin down on the hot grill, brushed the green and white flesh with oil, and added some seasonings.

He was very serious, and while seasoning the eggplant, he didn't forget to turn over the wings he was grilling just now. Even though it was only a few degrees outside, there were still a few beads of sweat on his forehead.

He put down the seasoning bottle in his hand, and said softly, "Go and sit down, this eggplant will take a long time to bake, I'll help you watch it, and call you when it's cooked."

Xu Zixin agreed, but didn't leave. He took a handful of beef from the shelf and began to brush with oil and season it.

Yu Ji sensed his thoughts, and no longer sent him away, but still looked a little...indifferent.

"Why didn't you come to the football game yesterday..." Xu Zixin asked him casually, "It's good that I came yesterday, I played better yesterday, and there is no assistant coach to disturb the situation."

Yu Ji was silent for a while, then replied coldly, "I didn't plan to come today, but Yu Ran wanted to."

"Huh?" Xu Zixin was a little anxious, and he was too embarrassed to shout at him, so he could only ask in a suppressed voice, "Why don't you want to come? Didn't I send you a text message?" His tone sounded a bit aggrieved.

"I didn't agree," Yu Ji turned to look at him, his tone was cold, "We don't know each other well."

"...Then let's get to know each other better?" Xu Zixin paused, the beef in his hand was brushed with too much oil, and a cluster of flames rolled up on the charcoal fire burned the beef. .

"Need not"

"Then let's go out for dinner next week? There's a nice new store near the school..."

"No, Yu Ran and I are going to the movies."

"Then let's go together, watch a movie and go to dinner."

"No"

"..."

While the two were talking, the beef in Xu Zixin's hand was so burnt that he couldn't eat it, and the open flame burned up along the wooden skewer piercing the beef. pain.

"Hiss—" Xu Zixin subconsciously let go.

But when he let go, he was too shocked, and the force in his hand pushed back, and the burning wooden sticks were lightly bounced to the side.

Yu Ji was still holding a few strings of middle wings and putting them on the grill, and didn't notice the burning wooden sticks—but even if he did, he didn't have time to react, the distance was too close.

Seeing that the burning wooden stick was about to bounce into Yu Ji's hand, Xu Zi was stunned, then grabbed Yu Ji's coat with his left hand and dragged it back, stretched out his right hand, and grabbed the burning wooden stick.

"Damn it" he cursed in a low voice, and quickly let go of the palm of his right hand. The palm was black, and it was the carbon ash left by the wooden stick that was not fully burned.

The fire on the wooden stick has been extinguished.

The burning pain in the palm was only momentary, but when he grasped the unevenly burned wooden sticks, several of them pierced into his flesh.

Xu Zixin let go of Yu Ji's coat, and stretched out his hand to pull out the wooden sticks that had been poked in, with a very uncomfortable expression on his face.

Before Yu Ji could react, he had already killed those few bamboo sticks.

Fortunately, the poke wasn't deep, and it came out with a light pull. Xu Zixin heaved a sigh of relief, and asked the person next to him, "Are you okay?"

"fine"

Yu Ji looked at his palm and frowned.

Bai Qinglang, who was baking something next to him, noticed the movement here, and asked, "Are you all right?"

Xu Zixin threw the wooden stick in his hand into the trash can next to him, "It's okay, my beef is burnt."

As soon as the words fell, Xu Zixin felt that someone had touched his aching palm.

When he lowered his head, he saw several white and slender fingers grabbing his palm, his middle finger and ring finger were wrapped in the other's palm, and they seemed to stick to the palm of his hand.

"Do you have a medicine box at home?" Yu Ji raised his eyes to look at him, "It must be dealt with, it may be infected."

Xu Zixin was stunned for a moment, "No... I'll just wash my hands."

Yu Ji automatically ignored his words and asked, "Where is it?"

Xu Zixin couldn't help it, "It seems to be in the study..."

"Let's lead the way"

"Oh....."

The heating in the room was sufficient, the medicine box was placed on the pear wood table, Yu Ji and Xu Zixin were sitting a little close.

Holding the back of the opponent's hand with the palm of the lingering fear, and holding the cotton ball soaked in alcohol with tweezers in the other hand, he lowered his head and blew on Xu Zixin's palm to blow off some of the ashes.

The palm of his hand was itchy, Xu Zixin shrank subconsciously, and was grabbed by the wrist by the lingering fear, "Don't move..."

Yu Ji lowered his head, and carefully disinfected the wound on his palm, the movement was very light, and the drooping eyelashes were so gentle that they could melt into it.

Xu Zixin was a little afraid of pain, but he didn't want to show it in front of him, so he kept clenching his teeth, looking at the other's cautious movements for a while, looking at the little mole at the corner of his eye, and at the little mole under his earlobe, his nerves tensed with.

After cleaning up, Yu Ji put a square bandage on the palm of his hand, enough to cover all the wounds.

"Thank you"

Yu Ji was not in a hurry to take back the things he took out of the medicine box, and glanced at his legs, "Pull up the trouser legs."

"why?"

"Pick it up."

"Oh..." Xu Zi agreed without knowing why, just bent down, before his hands touched his trouser legs, he straightened up again, smiled a little maliciously, and stared straight at the lingering face, " Why don't you just take off your pants?"

The expression on Yu Ji's face didn't fluctuate at all, without hesitation, he stretched out his hand and pressed the other's palm that had just been pasted with a band-aid.

"It hurts, it hurts!!!" Xu Zixin cried out in shock.

"Pull up the trouser legs" Yu Ji repeated.

Xu Zixin didn't dare to say anything more, so he lifted his trousers up to his knees, revealing a scrape on his calf.

"How do you know I'm injured?" Xu Zixin asked him deliberately.

Yu Ji was busy with the work in hand and ignored him, but the corners of the latter's mouth raised unconsciously.

It was injured when he fell during the game, and he didn't care because it wasn't serious.

Yu Ji simply disinfected him and put a large band-aid on him.After dealing with it, Yu Ji stood up and slowly put back some of the things he took out just now.

Xu Zixin sat without moving, watching the other party's movements.

"What you said to me before... I just pretend I didn't hear it," Yu Ji said suddenly.

Xu Zixin knew what he meant, but asked him deliberately, "What did I tell you?"

Yu Ji couldn't be fooled by him, and put the disinfectant alcohol back into the box, "You know what I mean."

"I don't know, do you mean the sentence that you like you or the sentence that you want to chase you?"

Yu Ji gently closed the medicine box, "Both sentences are true."

"Why?" Xu Zixin put one hand on the medicine box and stared at his side face, "You don't believe me?" He looked like a primary school boy cheating.

"You don't know what you're talking about." Yu Ji kept his original posture and didn't look at him.

"I know," Xu Zixin retorted immediately.

"You do not know."

"I know."

"...Forget it" Yu Ji sighed, not wanting to continue the quarrel-style conversation with him.

"I've never liked anyone before," Xu Zixin said, "It doesn't prevent me from liking you."

Yu Ji didn't look at him, and said with some difficulty, "You are not at all..." He didn't say the following words.

Xu Zixin understood what he meant, "I don't know if it is... because I have never liked anyone else, but I have feelings for you. If you don't believe me..." He put his hand on the other person's shoulder Go up, turn him over to face himself, lower his head slightly to meet his eyes.

"If you don't believe it, let me kiss it and you'll know if it's true—I don't want to kiss anyone...whether it's a man or a woman, but I want to kiss you."

A shaken look flashed quickly in the lingering eyes, and Xu Zixin caught it.

"Can you?" He asked softly, his voice was a little hoarse, and his heart seemed to be jumping out of his chest.

The other party's lips moved, as if to say something, but Xu Zixin didn't hear it.The distance between the two was no more than half a meter, and the warm breath of the other party brushed against his neck as if nothing, and the lingering lips looked very suitable for kissing.

In the next second, Xu Zixin was pushed away.At the same time, the door of the study was pushed open.

"Are you done? Let's go, play Werewolf!" Chen Hao held a deck of Werewolf cards in his hand and called the two over.

Yu Ji agreed, and walked out of the study with a normal expression, without even looking at Xu Zixin.

The latter froze in place, watching him go out, as if he was still indulging in the atmosphere just now, until Chen Hao stretched out his hand to give him a hand, and he came back to his senses.

"What's wrong?" Chen Hao stretched out his hand and waved in front of his eyes, "Have you lost your soul?"

"No—" Xu Zixin slapped his hand away, and immediately changed his expression, "Can you knock on the door when you come in? Huh?"

"No, what's the point of knocking on the door? Is there anything you two can't be disturbed?"

Xu Zixin didn't speak, and walked back to the barbecue place in the backyard. As soon as he walked over, he heard Yu Ran's voice.

"Brother, the chicken wings you just roasted are so mushy that there are only bones left."

After eating and drinking, everyone sat cross-legged on the carpet in the spacious living room. Xu Zixin drove away Bai Qinglang who was sitting next to Yu Ji, and sat next to him.

Everyone basically knows how to play, and briefly talked about the differences between the configuration of their number and certain rules.

"Let's talk about the punishment before starting the game—" Chen Hao said, "If you lose the truth or dare, do you have any objections?"

Everyone agrees.

Yu Ran got the God card in the first hand, raised one hand, "I am God."

Bai Qinglang, who was sitting next to her, hadn't looked at his cards yet. When he saw that she had taken God, he immediately handed over his cards. Are you familiar with the rules, I will be God."

Yu Ran nodded, and handed over his God card.

The first one is over.

Got the lingering fear of the werewolf and two teams of boys lost.

All three chose the truth.

The first boy, Chen Hao asked him when was his first kiss.

The second boy, Chen Hao asked him when was the first time.

"Damn, do you want to ask such a restricted question?!"

Chen Hao took it for granted, "Otherwise, what are you asking?! You've already said that it's punishment——"

When it came to Yuji, Chen Hao was pushed aside by Xu Zixin before he could ask, "Have you asked enough? It's time for me to ask."

"Okay, okay, you come, you come."

Xu Zixin looked to his side and cleared his throat solemnly.

Yu Ji was a little restless, afraid that he would ask some questions that he could not answer.

"Hmm... who gave you the little tiger on your keychain?"

A few hours ago at the stadium, when they came out after changing clothes, he overheard Yu Ran who was helping Yu Ji with the things and asked him where did the little tiger come from, Yu Ji said it was given by someone else.

He glanced at that thing, and it seemed to be the same craft as the cartoon keychain that a little girl had secretly put in his desk before, and it was a pair of keychains that were often found in jewelry stores in front of schools.

It seems that many young couples in the school will use it.

"Oh, I thought you were going to ask some serious questions." Chen Hao sighed.

Xu Zixin didn't speak, but looked at the lingering fear.

The latter replied frankly, "I gave it to my deskmate."

really!

Several times when Xu Zixin went to see him outside their classroom, he saw that Yu Ji and his deskmate looked very close.

"What's your relationship with her?" Xu Zixin asked.

Yu Ji glanced at him, "That's the second question."

"..."

In the second round, Zhou Mo, Bai Qinglang, and Xu Zixin took the werewolf, slaughtered the edge, and defeated the good guy.

Yu Jing still chose the truth, Xu Zixin thought about it in his head, and asked cautiously, "Do you like your tablemate?"

"Wow~" Chen Hao booed, "Can I tell the girls in the class this answer?"

Yu Ji replied without thinking, "I don't like it, I'm just an ordinary classmate."

Xu Zi was satisfied.

The next one was Yu Ran. Chen Hao asked her conservatively, "When was your first kiss?"

Before Yu Ran could answer, he was pushed by Bai Qinglang, "What kind of questions are you asking, can you be more normal?"

Chen Hao was very puzzled, "I'll go, this question is much gentler than the previous ones—"

"No, no, no," Bai Qinglang stretched out his hand to push him again, "Change it to another one, and change it to a question that doesn't embarrass people."

Chen Hao glanced at Bai Qinglang inexplicably, and changed the question again, "Who is your first love..." Before he finished speaking, Bai Qinglang covered his mouth again.

"......"

"No, what's wrong with you...you ask, I shut up."

Bai Qinglang looked at Yu Ran, thought for about 5 minutes, and finally asked, "What kind of chocolate do you like?"

"Dark chocolate... Nuts are also fine," Yu Ran replied seriously, "Because the others seem too sweet."

They ended the third game in a hurry because they had to rush back to school for late self-study.

After lingering fear, the last hand is still lost.

But because the time was short, there was no time for the final punishment, so all the losers in this round were let go.

They divided three cars to go back to school, Yu Ran and Yu Jing went home to get their schoolbags.

Yu Ji walked back to his classroom slowly, but met Xu Zixin who had been waiting for him there for almost half an hour in the corridor.

"Is your car so slow?" He walked up to him.

Yu Ji didn't answer him, and passed him to enter the classroom door, "Go back to the classroom, class is about to start."

"It's still early," Yu Ji looked down at the phone, "There are still 10 minutes." Saying that, he stretched out his hand to hold his arm again.

Yu Ji stopped and shook off his hand, "What else is there?"

"You lost the last game just now, and you haven't accepted the punishment yet."

"......"

"I don't make things difficult for you, just remove my mobile phone number from the blacklist."
