he is afraid, he pretends

Wen Siyuan raised his head upon hearing the sound, and when he saw the person walking towards the door, the confusion in his eyes had not completely dissipated.

When the person walked up to him, he seemed to suddenly remember, raised his hand and rubbed the space between his brows, then took out his phone and opened the memo in the calendar to take a look.

Soon he put away his phone and looked at Wu Luming again, with two points of apology in his voice: "Sorry, there is a temporary seminar in the afternoon, I didn't pay attention to the phone, and I need to move it..."

While speaking, he seemed to have just seen the wet clothes on Wu Luming's body.

After a moment's pause, he changed his mind and asked, "Is everything packed?"

Wu Luming nodded, a smile gradually appeared on his face that was exactly the same as when he was practicing in front of the mirror just now.

When Wen Siyuan saw this, the apology on his face became more apologetic.

He apologized again: "It was my negligence that I told your cousin yesterday that I would drive to pick you up to move."

"Brother Yuan, it's clear that I lived and lived in your house for nothing, but now you apologize to me instead, so I'm going to kneel down and kowtow three times to you?"

Wu Luming bent his eyes, made a simple joke, and then said in a serious tone: "Besides, I don't have much stuff, and I still have my classmates to accompany me to pack and move in the afternoon, so I told my cousin that I don't need anyone to pick me up."

Wen Siyuan met Wu Luming's sincere eyes with a smile, was silent for a moment, then bent down again to put on the indoor slippers, and asked Wu Luming as he entered the room, "Are you tired now?"

Wu Luming is 1.8 meters tall, but Wen Siyuan is half a head taller than him.

He walked into the room with Wen Siyuan, shaking his head: "I'm not tired."

While talking, the two had already walked to a door.

Wen Siyuan raised his hand to open the door, and inside the door was a bathroom.

"This is the bathroom in the living room. I don't use it very much. There is no separate toilet in the guest room. You can take a shower here in the future, and there are all toiletries."

After he finished speaking, he looked sideways at Wu Luming, and asked, "You take a shower first, and I'll take you out for dinner after you take a shower?"

Wu Luming didn't agree to Wen Siyuan's words, but instead asked, "How does Brother Yuan usually solve the meal problem?"

"I'm not usually at home."

"What about the occasional situation at home?"

"takeout."

Wu Luming didn't answer immediately.

The living room was a bit stuffy, and the wet clothes pressed against her body pushed the heat back to its peak.

He raised his hand and shook his clothes twice before continuing to ask: "Is there no option to cook by yourself?"

Wen Siyuan paused for a while this time before answering: "Not very good at it."

When Wu Luming heard this, his smile suddenly widened, and his voice was filled with joy: "That's great."

Doubt appeared in Wen Siyuan's eyes.

"Eating and living for free, I really feel sorry for you. From now on, when you are at home, I will take care of all the meals. How about it?"

"Do not……"

Just as Wen Siyuan was about to say his refusal, Wu Luming quickly interrupted: "Then let me pay the rent?"

Wen Siyuan was silent for a moment, then made a choice: "Then I will trouble you from now on."

Wu Luming smiled with his eyes wide open, looking very happy and said: "It's not troublesome at all."

Wen Siyuan's house was allocated to his mother's property when his grandfather passed away a few years ago.

At that time, he happened to be admitted to the university in City A, and the school was not too far from here, so he lived here.

He has lived in this house for several years. After graduating from university, studying in graduate school, and now studying for a Ph. D., he has always lived in this house alone.

He himself likes to be quiet, and he doesn't like strangers entering his private space, so even though the house has three rooms, he has never thought of renting it out these years.

It was an accident that Wu Luming lived in.

Wen Siyuan and Wu Luming's cousin, Wu Shengjin, were college classmates, and later they successfully secured graduate studies together. Therefore, among their group of college classmates, Wen Siyuan and Wu Shengjin have the best relationship, and they have daily contacts.

Wu Shengjin did not continue to study for a Ph.D. after finishing her master's degree, but went to work in other places.

Half a month ago, Wu Shengjin was on a business trip to City A, and the two of them had a meal together. During the meal, Wu Shengjin suddenly mentioned Wu Luming: "Speaking of which, my cousin Xiaoming is studying at C University, do you know about this?"

Wen Siyuan shook his head, and Wu Shengjin quickly continued: "I thought you two could still be in touch, but it's true, you are a bland person."

Wu Shengjin said, picked up the wine in hand and drank half a glass, sighed and said: "Xiao Ming has been studying in C University for a year, and school starts these few days. Too many, he couldn't sleep well at school, so he was asked to find a place to live next to the school this year, and I don't know if he found it."

I don't know if it was a coincidence, but the day after Wu Shengjin finished speaking, Wen Siyuan saw a familiar face near his home.

That day, he and some classmates were discussing the subject at hand in a coffee shop near his residence, when he looked up by chance and saw a boy squatting across from the coffee shop.

The boy was wearing a tie-dyed dark green short-sleeved sleeve, squatting on the side of the road with his head in his hands, his fair face flushed by the sun.

Behind him is a real estate agency with a small store.

Therefore, Wen Siyuan recognized the person after he looked back and forth twice at the big characters "Housing Agency" behind the person and the person.

He had contact with Wu Luming a few times more than a year ago, the contact was not deep, but it was enough for him to remember Wu Luming.

Wu Luming has a good temper, loves to laugh, and has a fair baby face. When he smiles at people, he always gives people the feeling of being kidnapped with just a lollipop.

It's hard not to remember.

That afternoon, Wen Siyuan sat in the coffee shop and watched Wu Luming run back and forth several times, with an obvious unsatisfactory expression on his face.

A few days later, Wu Shengjin's business trip ended, and when Wen Siyuan saw him off, he casually asked if Wu Luming had found a house, so today's scene happened.

"Then let's start tonight." Wu Luming suddenly interrupted Wen Siyuan's thoughts, "Brother Yuan, think about what you want to eat tonight, after I take a shower, we will go out to buy ingredients, ok ?”

Although Wen Siyuan agreed to let Wu Luming cook, he didn't actually have this idea in his heart.

Today's young people don't know how to cook a lot, not to mention whether it is delicious or not, it is not easy to make a good meal.

Therefore, he only thought that Wu Luming was sorry, and he probably wouldn't insist on letting the child fry the kitchen twice.

"There's some in the bag by the door."

Wen Siyuan raised his finger and pointed to the supermarket plastic bag next to the shoe rack: "You can see if there is anything in it that you can use."

Wu Luming looked in the direction Wen Siyuan pointed, a little strangeness appeared in his eyes.

Wen Siyuan caught the look in Wu Luming's eyes, and explained in a low voice while walking towards the door: "The family sends some things over every month."

Wu Luming nodded, seeing that Wen Siyuan was going to the door to get a bag, he hurriedly followed to the door.

The two carried a large bag of things to the middle of the living room, Wu Luming opened the bag and rummaged through it, looked up at Wen Siyuan who was standing beside him and asked, "Does Brother Yuan eat sausage rice?"

Wen Siyuan nodded.

Wu Luming instantly bent his eyes: "Then it will be tonight."

After he finished speaking, he took the bag and went into the kitchen.

There are a lot of things in the bag, all of which are some special foods sent by Wen Siyuan's hometown. There are ready-to-eat ones that need to be steamed.

In the past, when Wen Siyuan received this big bag of food every month, he would put it away for several days before he remembered to pick out a few of his favorite foods, and took the rest to school to share with others.

He didn't know how to do it, so he didn't bother to stuff it in the refrigerator.

However, this time, things were carried into the kitchen by Wu Luming, and soon they each had their own residences.

Wu Luming packed his things very methodically, and soon the big bag was emptied.

When Wen Siyuan came back to his senses standing at the door of the kitchen, Wu Luming had already washed the rice and was adding various ingredients for sausage rice to the rice cooker.

The phone in my pocket vibrated.

Wen Siyuan took out his mobile phone and found that the message was from Wu Shengjin.

[Has my brother arrived at your place? 】

Wen Siyuan unlocked the phone.

【Here. 】

Wu Shengjin replied quickly.

[Take a photo, I'll send it to my aunt, so she won't worry. 】

Wen Siyuan looked at the content of the message, and was turning on the camera to ask Wu Luming for permission. When he looked up, he found Wu Luming staring at him for an unknown how long.

The eyes of the two met, Wu Luming suddenly raised his hand to make a gesture beside his face, and asked Wen Siyuan with a smile: "Do you need to pose for a photo?"

Wen Siyuan nodded with some doubts.

"My mother has always been like this. I have to take a picture of her wherever I go to make her feel at ease."

As Wu Luming said, he turned sideways and faced Wen Siyuan: "Come on, I'm going to take a shower after taking the picture, thank you Brother Yuan."

Seeing this, Wen Siyuan didn't say any more, and raised his phone to take a picture for Wu Luming.

"Crack" sound.

Wu Luming put down his hands, turned around and pressed the rice cooker a few times, then walked towards the door and said to Wen Siyuan: "It will take 40 minutes. I sweat a lot today and I don't feel very comfortable, so I may need to wash for a longer time." , If the meal is ready and I haven't come out yet, Brother Yuan, you don't have to wait for me, just eat first."

After the words fell, he turned into the guest room.

After a while, he came out of the guest room again and entered the bathroom in the living room.

The bathroom door closed in front of Wen Siyuan's eyes, Wen Siyuan looked away and glanced at Wu Luming's photo on the phone.

Wen Siyuan hadn't taken many photos of people before, and just now he just took photos casually.

But the teenager in the photo is obviously very photogenic. Even if the light is not good and the angle is not good, the smiling appearance in the photo is very attractive.

Wen Siyuan didn't look at it much, and quickly passed the photo to Wu Shengjin.

Wu Shengjin came back with an "ok" expression, and the two didn't talk any more.

The sound of water came from the bathroom.

Wen Siyuan put away his mobile phone, walked to the door, picked up the travel bag on the table, and entered the study.

Recently, I was busy with a project. Wen Siyuan had been staying overnight at school for two consecutive nights. He has been so busy recently that he has completely forgotten about Wu Luming moving here today.

Wu Luming said it would be convenient for him not to go out to eat tonight.

Going into the study and taking out the computer, Wen Siyuan quickly immersed himself in the world of work.

When I came back to my senses again, it was because I smelled the aroma of rice in the air.

Wen Siyuan didn't pay much attention at first, until his stomach growled first.

He froze his hands on the keyboard.

The aroma of the rice became stronger and stronger.

After hesitating for about two or three seconds, Wen Siyuan finally got up and left the study, and walked towards the kitchen where the scent was wafting.

Walking to the rice cooker, Wen Siyuan looked at the source of aroma that he had never used before, with a little curiosity in his dull eyes.

Apart from him, Wen Siyuan's family still has a pair of twins who are eight years old this year.

When Wen's mother was pregnant with two children, because of her advanced age and two children, the morning sickness reaction was very serious.

Wen Siyuan was in high school in his hometown at that time, and out of the desire to make his mother less tired, he went into the kitchen twice.

The first time he burned a pot and smashed two bowls, and the second time the pressure cooker was operated improperly and almost made a hole in the kitchen ceiling. His mother scolded and drove him out of the kitchen. I have never entered the kitchen sanctuary again.

Wen Siyuan had sausage rice, but sausage fried rice, not braised rice with sausage.

When he was in his hometown, the rice cooker under the control of his mother could only cook white rice and porridge, so he never knew that the rice cooker could cook such a fragrance.

What did Wu Luming add to it just now?

Wen Siyuan thought for a moment, but found that he didn't remember it, so he simply didn't think about it, and raised his eyes to stare at the countdown on the rice cooker.

5 minutes left.

He leaned sideways to the cooking table, staring at the rice cooker, as if he didn't intend to leave.

Until 5 minutes later, a "drop" sounded in the kitchen.

The already strong aroma seemed to rise to another level. Wen Siyuan straightened up, raised his hand and was about to turn on the rice cooker, when a soft call came from outside the kitchen.

"Brother Yuan?"

Wen Siyuan paused.

The rice cooker was exhausting air, and white mist hit Wen Siyuan's face.

He raised his hand and waved it away, and heard another voice: "Brother Yuan, are you there?"

This time he heard clearly, it was Wu Luming's voice.

There was a little nervousness in the voice, probably looking for him for something.

Wen Siyuan waved away the white mist in front of him again, stared down at the rice cooker within reach in front of him for a moment, and finally stepped out of the kitchen.

Before taking two steps, he saw Wu Luming.

The bathroom door opened a crack, Wu Luming squeezed out a wet head from the crack, looking back and forth cautiously with a blushing face.

The eyes of the two were caught off guard, and Wu Luming was obviously stunned for a moment, then he seemed to take a small step back, then looked at Wen Siyuan and said with a little embarrassment: "Brother Yuan, can you help me get a suit of clothes? I accidentally brought over laundry that was just washed this morning and not yet dry."

Wen Siyuan nodded and asked, "Where is it?"

Wu Luming quickly instructed: "I packed them all and put them in the closet in my room, any set is fine."

Wen Siyuan agreed, then turned and walked to the guest room.

Soon, his figure reappeared in the living room holding the clothes.

Seeing this, Wu Luming opened the door a little more, stretched out his hand and went out.

He seemed to have just taken a shower and hadn't had time to wipe it off. His outstretched hand and the half of his body exposed behind the door were all dripping wet.

His skin was originally white, but now there are drops of water on his body, like a flawless suet jade.

Wen Siyuan walked to the door and handed the clothes to him.

He stretched out his hand to take it, but the door didn't hold at once, and it opened two more points to the outside.

The long straight legs were exposed to the air without any cover.

The boy's legs were long and well-proportioned, although they were thin and white, they did not look weak.

Wen Siyuan's gaze swept across inadvertently, and the hand that was handing the thing suddenly paused.

His pause made Wu Luming's breathing slow down by half a beat.

After a while, Wen Siyuan withdrew his gaze from Wu Luming, put the clothes in Wu Luming's hands, and when he was about to back up, he seemed hesitant to speak.

Wu Luming took the clothes and didn't close the door again immediately. He looked at Wen Siyuan's face and said softly, "Brother Yuan, what's wrong?"

Wen Siyuan heard Wu Luming calling him, as if after thinking about it, he finally decided to speak: "Did you take a cold shower just now?"

Wu Luming didn't expect such words, he nodded slowly in a daze.

Seeing this, Wen Siyuan's gaze fell back to Wu Luming again.

In September, the daytime is sultry and hot, but the temperature drops by half when it gets dark.

Wu Luming had just bathed in cold water, and now he stood there for a long time with the water pearls on his body, and couldn't help shivering.

The water droplets from his hair flowed down his neck, across his round shoulders, through his hip bones, and into his ankles, and his fair skin was covered with a layer of light pink.

It was at this moment that Wu Luming heard Wen Siyuan's serious voice.

"Take cold showers often, and you will easily get rheumatism."

The author has something to say:

Xiaowen: If you don't take care of yourself when you are young, you will get rheumatism when you get old (serious.jpg
