Oral period

The state of Xia Jingzhe's broken cans did not last for too long. There is no other reason. The serialized comics dragged on for too long, and the fans were already overwhelmed.

He has never been considered a very rational person, even such an important matter as confession can be left to his own intuition after drunkenness, skipping rational thinking about intimacy or past shadows, believing that the answer comes naturally, taking one step at a time ——However, after this battle, even if he didn't want to think about it, he still had to calm down and talk about something with himself in detail.

The theme of the break-up revolves around one thing: how to draw a sweet couple getting along well when one's own emotions are not going well.

The outline of the manga was set long ago, and after several refinements, the plot unfolded according to the plan, and it was logical that after the hero and heroine expressed their affection for each other, the daily life of you and me together - the heroine in the novel is arrogant and strong, a young lady with a perfect personality, It is far from him. He was able to grasp it when he focused on reasoning and narrative before. Now that the main plot is over and he has entered the "married life" that fans are looking forward to, he is somewhat at a loss as to where to start.

It’s not that he has no ideas. With his excellent professionalism, as long as he doesn’t deviate from the character design, he can make it to the end. It’s only after personal experience that he realizes that falling in love is not as simple as he imagined. There are many details that he was familiar with before. Stirred by emotions, it became a blank instead, and it didn't feel right no matter how I thought about it.

In short, he is a talented player who "relies three points on rationality and seven points on sensibility". Under the blow of the messy emotional journey, he has become a bottleneck.

The culprit who caused his bottleneck was sitting in the living room, separated from him by a wall, probably immersed in the homework for two people - he hadn't spoken a word to him for three hours.

In a sense, he is asking for trouble.

The matter started three hours ago, no, four or five hours ago to be precise. After ordering takeaway, he found that the mess in the kitchen hadn't been cleaned up. The warm water in front of him interrupted the spellcasting.

Zhen Xiao obviously guessed what he wanted to do, but he didn't tease him like before, nor did he intend to comfort the patient, he just got up silently and walked towards the kitchen.

He didn't know why, and felt that with the other party's ability to take care of himself, he might not be able to cope with the tragic situation in the kitchen, so he hesitated for a moment and followed him - so he was locked out of the door without warning, and the person who locked him was separated from him through a glass door. Looking at each other with calm eyes and gentle tone: "I'll do it."

He was flattered, and felt even more that something was wrong with Zhen Xiao, something was too wrong.

This strangeness persisted for a while.During those few hours, the other party was uncharacteristically, barely talking to him, and even avoided being in the same room with him. He spontaneously cleaned up the kitchen and moved to the bedroom. Finally, he even went to the balcony for ten minutes to kill time before the delivery of the food. embarrassing time.

——But he would remember to pour him a cup of hot water from time to time, and put it in his hand without saying a word. Occasionally, his eyes would meet, and he would be able to capture the rare helplessness that passed by, and there was something more heavy The emotions that are incompatible with Zhenxiao.

Gentle, courteous—if his intuition was correct, there was even a hint of guilt he couldn't understand.

These unfamiliar emotions made him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles, and his inner doubts even surpassed the shame caused by drunken gaffes, or the entanglement of whether he could confess successfully, but the situation was embarrassing, and he couldn't catch the other party and ask, "What's wrong with you today? What's not right."

After all, he himself is not very normal.

Zhenxiao's anomaly lasted for a while, from the time the two of them sat opposite each other and ate the takeaway meal surprisingly quietly, to the time when he went back to his room to draw a sketch, in less than an hour, this person poured him at least five glasses of warm water—— The temperature is right, the timing is right, but the form is a bit monotonous.

He has no objection to this. After all, with Zhenxiao's growth experience, this may indeed be the only way he can think of to express his concern.

This person was avoiding him calmly, while hiding, but at the same time wanted to care about him, and treated him clumsily... This was the conclusion he came to after returning to the room.

A conclusion that softened his heart, but made him even more at a loss.

He is not good at dealing with such unexplained kindness, especially when such kindness is placed on Zhenxiao—it is too heavy and strange, which almost makes him feel flustered, suspecting that it is the calm that is about to come.

So three hours ago, when Zhenxiao expressed to him "drink more hot water" with actions for the last time, he was so distraught that he asked that he needed to be quiet and that he didn't need anyone to bring tea and water for the time being.

This time Zhenxiao is very obedient.

There is no digital tablet, no computer he is used to, the only tool he has is the spare tablet left here last year, the memory is extremely small, the version is old, and every five strokes will freeze between zooming and zooming every five strokes on average, which makes him angry , his thinking became more and more difficult, and finally the battery ran out, so he simply put down his pen and stared at the outline with a few words on the computer screen in a daze.

"On the first night after confirming the relationship, we cook together and have dinner together; we can ask our girlfriends for anything, and we enjoy running errands."

It was indeed the first night, the first night when it was confirmed that they had nothing to do with each other—hangover and cold, he didn't even say a word of confession.

It is true that we cooked together, and there is no sweet memory at all, only the senseless smell of jealousy now that I think about it, and that idiot Zhenxiao seems to have hurt his hand.

Had dinner together... I did have dinner together a few hours ago, a bowl of porridge as bland as water, too hot, which made my already inflamed and sore throat worse.

Anything and everything, running errands, having fun...

It is true that Zhen Xiao likes him nine out of ten, but with that person's personality, he is cold and arrogant to the outside world, so it is easy to talk to him, but there are also many bad thoughts-not to mention that he enjoys taking whatever he wants, just "letting him Zhenxiao runs errands without complaint", I am afraid it will be difficult to implement.

What's more, according to the setting of the plot, the "running errands" here can't be used to take care of patients and other behaviors to secretly change the concept. suffer.

It's not "help me do something for the sake of my illness", but "I want to eat fruit cut into flowers, as long as I want roses, go buy and cut them now, otherwise you just don't love me".

The former is not something he can do, and the latter... I'm afraid it was something Zhen Xiao was able to do when he first met.

After a long time, Xia Jingzhe rubbed her painful temples and realized a more serious problem.

It's okay to substitute himself, why did he substitute the heroine's side.

As a creator, putting too much of your own emotions in the work may lead to an imbalance in the role. It may seem too subjective, but it is actually a very dangerous behavior.

However, the bottleneck is the bottleneck, and the unexpected blockage is fierce——Xia Jingzhe dragged his chaotic brain to reread the previous chapters, but he still couldn't think of any details that fit the plot of the outline and were reasonable and natural. , finally gave up, drank the cold water at hand in one go, and planned to go out to find inspiration.

The last straw that prompted him to make a decision was reasonable. A few days ago, on a draft night a few days ago, the other party somehow realized his conscience and offered to make him a cup of hot coffee. The topic changed several times between "support" and "reward". , it seems that the words "provide life experience for reference" have also appeared.

I can't remember the details, he only remembers the eyes of the other party slapping and stuffing a sweet date - at that time, he was not used to such abrupt kindness, and he also failed to discover that behind Zhen Xiao's abnormal behavior, maybe there was something else hidden. The inexplicable, softer transformation of

Like when did you fall in love with him.

As soon as the pinnae of the ears were hot, Xia Jingzhe pushed open the door and saw someone sitting upright on the sofa from a distance. He felt that the orange candy in his heart melted a little after a long time. It was both sour and sweet, and it slowly flowed into his broken jar. Bottle neck glass bottle.

His feelings... don't seem to be that bad either.

Sensing the movement of the door opening, Zhen Xiao looked up from the phone screen, caught a glimpse of Xia Jingzhe's face, frowned almost imperceptibly, but still maintained an abnormal silence, and didn't speak until the other party called his name.

"What's the matter?" His tone was a little blunt, and the words he spoke were not very pleasing to the ear, but based on Xia Jingzhe's understanding of him, this is already a very gentle state.

When her self-esteem is in trouble and her weakness is not touched by others, Xia Jingzhe is a person who can carry out the word "brave" to the end.With a calm face, he forcibly suppressed the discomfort caused by inflammation of the tonsils, made himself look like a healthy person, walked to the sofa and sat down, so as to realize his original intention of coming to the living room.

At first, it was just for the purpose of collecting materials, and it was a bit difficult to substitute into the character design, but now the person he likes is in front of him, which instead gave rise to a little childish interest, which made him eager to try.

This person will not reject him, so if it is deliberately making things difficult for him, or the willingness to fight and suffer that can only be found between lovers...

Although Xia Jingzhe didn't realize it at this time, this sense of novelty was not groundless—in his growth process, he was always the one who satisfies other people's coquettish desires. He is timid and stays within the rational range of reaping his own fruit, and no one will catch his unreasonable troubles and let him become a person who takes things safely in his subconscious.

Except Zhenxiao—the 19-year-old Zhenxiao now.

Of course, this kind of interest aroused by drawing materials came out of the blue, and it didn't make him suddenly change his gender, and he really became the domineering "Miss" in the comics.Before starting the performance, Xia Jingzhe still reminded people, telling him that he might be a little abnormal in the future.

"What do you mean?" Zhen Xiao looked at him inexplicably—from the look in his eyes, rather than wondering about his purpose itself, it was more like wondering whether he was confused or not.

"I'm not sure how to describe some plots in the comics, so..." Xia Jingzhe paused, deliberately avoiding the relationship between the two corresponding characters, and said in a blunt tone, "Anyway, you don't need to deliberately cooperate, give I can just react."

He was just exploring a possibility. If Zhenxiao could get whatever he wanted like the boys in the comics, it would be an unexpected surprise, but if not, he didn't really think it had anything to do with it.

Obviously, in terms of thinking about the problem, Zhen Xiao is much more rational than him, and quickly grasped the crux of the problem: "I am not a gentle and loyal dog, or a tsundere lady, is there any reference value for my real reaction?"

Gentle and loyal dog, arrogant lady—these two words were pronounced out of his mouth solemnly as if recounting the conditions for solving a problem, which is really a bit outrageous.

Xia Jingzhe was shocked, there were too many questions, and he didn't know where to start. After a few seconds, he regained his language ability, and picked the one he was most concerned about right now: "...Did you fucking read it?"

If he remembered correctly, he had indeed seen these two entries before. In the manga's recommendation, it was a "popular label" forced on him by an editor at the heart of a young girl who was about to get married.

But how could Zhenxiao know, and still remember so clearly...

Realizing that he seemed to have exposed something unintentionally, Zhen Xiao was startled, but quickly covered it up, and asked nonchalantly, "Can't you see it?"

——not only read it, but also analyzed and understood it with the rigorous logical thinking of a science student with the purpose of understanding the past history of his sweetheart. He has thoroughly read all his completed serial comics and learned a lot from Mr. Xia's "personal" "The professor's common sense of love includes but is not limited to fresh vocabulary such as "making color", and it is widely expanded in a simple way. In a sense, it opens the door to a new world.

... All these things, it is better not to let the parties know.

Looking at each other for a long time, Xia Jingzhe finally lost the battle first - he really couldn't stand the other party's innocent and focused, almost begging eyes - and sighed forcefully: "As you like, but this painting Not good, the subject matter is not pleasing, and the relationship line is messed up... You'd better not have too much expectation."

After saying that, he suddenly thought of something again, his expression froze, and all the previous desire to try something erratic turned into shame.

Since he knows how to read, what plot does tonight's material correspond to, and what identities do they correspond to... Isn't it true that even a fool can see what his intentions are.

The ashamed man looked away, trying to change the subject without leaving a trace: "Then I'll go back first—"

Before he finished speaking, he was suddenly grabbed by his sleeve.

The slender and beautiful hand hooked the corner of his sleeve, shook it meaningfully, then moved up a little, and grasped his wrist through the cloth material. , almost vicious playful: "Isn't it based on materials?"

Xia Jingzhe was taken aback, but her first reaction was not panic, but a heartfelt sigh of relief.

It's much more normal, he thought, this person will see through his thoughts and play tricks on him, like a child with unclear boundaries and an ambiguous filter.

It's better than being kind to him inexplicably, heavy and measured, making people feel uncomfortable.

But... the momentary peace of mind passed by in a flash, and was quickly replaced by distress by the current situation. He saw the almost undetectable smile in Zhenxiao's eyes, and a endless, endless, and more worry-free thought appeared in his mind. Like a question of showing affection.

The person you have a crush on is too smart, what should you do if your thoughts are being manipulated to death? Waiting online, it's already too late.
