"morning."

After knocking on the door, Tao Yiran didn't wait too long, and opened the door to Convenience with a bewildered expression, with a meaning in his eyes: What's the matter?

It's just that when his eyes touched the two rabbit ears on Tao Yiran's head, Jiang Zixu seemed to wake up instantly, let go of his hand holding the door frame, and took a step forward: "What's going on? What happened last night?"

Tao Yiran was stunned, subconsciously wanting to step back and stopped, and the original draft was completely forgotten: "You...don't remember?"

Asked by him, Jiang Zixu frowned, as if he was trying to remember.After a while, he shook his head slightly: "I just remember... I had a drink with Deng Zechen last night, and I don't have any memory of what happened after that."

"You sent me back? Could it be, what did I do last night?"

Seeing his ignorant appearance, Tao Yiran breathed a sigh of relief.Ignoring the slight loss, he said vaguely: "I didn't do anything, don't worry too much."

"It's just that I'm going out today...Look, how do I fix this ear?"

Throwing the question to Jiang Zixu, Tao Yiran shut his mouth tightly, his eyes drifted, and he didn't dare to look at the other person's face, for fear of seeing something wrong, which would only increase his troubles.

In short, he is very cowardly, wishing to know nothing, so that he can continue to deceive himself and others, and keep everything as it is. Even the rabbit ears are ready to move at any time, as if he is ready to run away at any time when the situation is not good.

Jiang Zixu could tell at a glance that he was trying to escape, and he was glad that he chose to play dumb, but he didn't intend to just let the other party retreat into the "safe house".He took the initiative to take a step back, and under Tao Yiran's surprised gaze, he raised his hand silently, brought it to Tao Yiran's mouth, turned his head away, and whispered, "Bite, bite. Just... be gentle."

At this moment, Tao Yiran's mood was complicated.

It seems that Jiang Zixu really doesn't remember, compared to himself who has been restless all night because of this, it seems a bit ridiculous.

It's not clear whether he was angry that the other party didn't remember, or angry that he cared too much, Tao Yiran didn't follow the other party's words of "lighten up", but increased his strength as if to vent his anger.

The moment the sharp teeth bit through the fingertips, Tao Yiran quickly grasped the other's hand that he subconsciously wanted to pull away due to the pain, and the tip of his tongue gently brushed over the wound, leaving some ambiguous tremors on the soft and smooth skin.Tao Yiran looked up, his blue eyes were a little deep, and when he touched those cool and watery black eyes, he was slightly taken aback.

Seems like...something went too far.

Tao Yiran tried to make amends, so he used the warm tip of his tongue to soothe the wound again, belatedly, he tasted some other more indelible flavors besides the fishy sweetness, which reminded him of smelling it on the other party several times by chance. The taste of the tea is like slightly bitter tea, or like the stream in the pine and clear clouds, which is out of reach.

—Help, help, help!

Jiang Zixu only felt that he was now being roasted on a fire, and his rationality was crumbling, wanting to be intimate with the seductive flames below.He hastily raised his hand to cover his face, because the fake expression might break at any moment, revealing his true thoughts, and it took him a long time to say in a trembling voice: "Okay, okay..."

If it goes on like this, the scene is really out of control.

Tao Yiran came back to his senses: "!!!"

He took a few steps back, turned his back, and the heat when his ears disappeared quickly shifted to the base of his ears: "Okay, okay..."

The two of them turned their backs to each other, and the other covered his face. The embarrassment washed away the ambiguity just now. The room has never been so quiet, only each other's heartbeat and breathing can be clearly seen, which makes people's brain even more chaotic.

"Then...then I'll go first." Tao Yiran pinched his thigh secretly, using the pain to force himself to wake up, "I still have to call a car."

"So early? Where are you going?" Jiang Zixu looked back at the sky and asked suspiciously.

"Go back to the orphanage." Tao Yiran replied sincerely, remembering that the other party already knew his origin.

"Let me see you off. Anyway, today is just a day off. Our side is far away, so it's hard to get a car. If I see you off, you can still have breakfast."

As he said that, Jiang Zixu smiled embarrassedly: "Just, just take it as a thank you gift for sending me back last night."

After he said that, Tao Yiran was too embarrassed to refuse immediately, so he agreed.

Jiang Zixu volunteered to make breakfast. Because it was so delicious, Tao Yiran ate more than half of it without knowing it. He still couldn't get enough of it. He couldn't help wondering when his appetite became so good.Jiang Zixu comforted him, saying that it might be the effect of awakening, and he might not gain weight, which made Tao Yiran feel a little relieved.

Taking the things he bought at the supermarket into the car, Tao Yiran gave Jiang Zixu his address, and after a while he started to feel sleepy due to a sleepless night.Jiang Zixu took a few glances and handed over a blindfold: "Go to sleep, it's still early."

Tao Yiran could hardly keep his eyes open, so he took it obediently and put it on.The familiar scent of mountain spring tea covered his eyelids, bringing an inexplicable sense of peace of mind, and almost made him fall asleep in a second.

It was only then that Jiang Zixu dared to look at him openly, quietly lowered the seat for him, and continued walking forward with nervousness and anticipation.

Rounding off to meet parents, can you not be nervous?

Fortunately, he took the initiative to help Tao Yiran put things in the back seat, so that the gift prepared in advance in the trunk would not be found, otherwise his thoughts would be seen through at the beginning, and there would be absolutely no follow-up.

It was almost noon when we arrived at the orphanage.The security guard at the gate of the orphanage saw a strange vehicle, walked over vigilantly, and knocked on the window: "Who are you looking for?"

Tao Yiran, who was sitting in the co-pilot, heard a familiar voice, and suddenly woke up from his sleep. He took off the blindfold, asked Jiang Zixu to roll down the window, and replied with a smile, "Uncle Li, it's me."

Seeing Tao Yiran's face, Uncle Li burst into laughter immediately: "Ran Ran is back! Hurry up, hurry up, come in!"

Jiang Zixu drove into the orphanage, found a place to stop, and helped Tao Yiran carry things into the building.

Tao Yiran arrived outside an office with ease.The door was ajar, and there was a coughing sound from inside, Tao Yiran's smile subsided, and he knocked on the door worriedly.

"Please come in."

The coughing paused, and an old female voice answered hoarsely.Tao Yiran pushed open the door: "Mother Lin, I'm back!"

As he spoke, he stepped forward to hug the surprised old man, and said worriedly, "Have you taken your medicine? How about I take you to the hospital."

Mother Lin smiled kindly, and patted Tao Yiran's arm: "Eat, eat, you have an old problem, and it's not like you don't know about it." After she finished speaking, her eyes fell on Jiang Zixu who was standing stiffly at the door, and looked at him for a few seconds Afterwards, he smiled even brighter, "This is..."

Jiang Zixu's palms were full of sweat. Hearing what the old man said, he dared to enter the house, put the things in his hands aside, and replied honestly: "Hello, I am Aran's friend, Jiang Zixu. If you call me Xiaoxu good."

"Son-in-law's son-in-law?" Mother Lin glanced at Tao Yiran, who was also nervous, and asked with a smile.

Jiang Zixu: "???"

At this moment, Jiang Zixu really wanted to ask Tao Yiran: Can she read minds?

Tao Yiran obviously didn't expect Lin's mother to tease him like this, and he couldn't hide his guilt while being surprised.He glanced at Jiang Zixu, who was also stunned, and said bravely, "It's not that 'son-in-law'...it's 'Xu' from 'Spring Breeze'."

"Really, ouch, then you, Aunt Zhang, are lying to me." Mother Lin gave the two uncomfortable juniors a meaningful look, "Forget it, forget it, don't sit here. Let's go, eat Go. Today is your birthday, and the cafeteria is full of your favorite food."

Tao Yiran was full of gratitude that Lin's mother changed the subject, and didn't realize that Jiang Zixu was not surprised after hearing "birthday".

The three came to the cafeteria, and there were already many people sitting in it.The children sat together in twos and threes, and there were some children who looked a little different, and they ate with the company of their caregivers.

It wasn't until Jiang Zixu took the plate and obediently followed Tao Yiran in line that Tao Yiran realized something was wrong, and said in a low voice, "If you are not used to eating..."

"I'm used to it." Jiang Zixu cut off his words and smiled, "Aran likes to eat, why am I not used to it?"

"...You, don't be here..." Tao Yiran's cheeks were slightly hot, he looked around in a panic, and tugged at the hem of the other party's clothes, "In case Mama Lin misunderstood..."

"But, we were already speculating on CP." Jiang Zixu bent down cooperatively, and whispered to him, "I feel that Mama Lin's joke before was well prepared. What do you think?"

Come prepared?Tao Yiran was taken aback for a moment, and immediately remembered the temptation on Aunt Zhang's phone call last night, and was at a loss for words.

It seems... makes sense.

Jiang Zixu took the opportunity to pinch his face, and comforted him: "It's okay. Anyway, just get used to this kind of thing. You should practice it first. Don't forget, the main event is my house."

"In other words, Mother Lin knows everything, but my family still doesn't know?"

After being reminded by him, Tao Yiran suddenly felt that his side was not so scary.At least the people in the orphanage have watched him grow up, and they are very supportive of what he does, and there is no sexual discrimination.In contrast, Jiang Zixu's family may be the real dragon's pond and tiger's den.

Tao Yiran completely forgot that Jiang Zixu's mother called Jiang Zixu and told him not to mess around before the formal relationship, and his mind was full of TV dramas about wealthy mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.Jiang Zixu yelled several times, but failed to bring him back to his senses, so he had no choice but to take away the plate from the other party's hand, hand it to the window for cooking, and finish the meal for the two of them, letting Tao Yiran hold his own. Clothes hem to the dining table.

The aunt who was cooking rice and Mother Lin exchanged smiling eyes: "Is that the child?"

Mother Lin: "It's him, his name and appearance match."

"Of course, I seem to trust him."

"Isn't it? But I'll have to ask more later, in case it's that...'love brain', the brain becomes stupid when it comes to love, the kind that is easy to be deceived."

"That's right. You have to help Ranran check it out!"

Jiang Zixu, who pulled Tao Yiran to sit down, suddenly felt a chill down his back, and had an ominous premonition.And this premonition reached its peak when Mama Lin sat down next to the two of them with the plate in hand.

"Xiao Xu." Lin's mother kindly picked up a chicken leg for him, "I've troubled you along the way, and I helped send Ranran here again, and carried things along the way."

"It should, it should." Jiang Zixu replied flattered.

Mother Lin glanced at Tao Yiran, who was still immersed in the plot of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law TV series, and said, "Of course, help me to see if the soup that the cafeteria made specially made earlier is ready."

Tao Yiran obediently stood up holding the bowl, stood outside the dining window, and communicated with the people inside.

Seeing Tao Yiran being sent away, Jiang Zixu immediately sat upright, put his hands on his knees obediently, "waiting for questions".

Sure enough, the next second, Mother Lin suddenly put away her smiling face and looked at him scrutinizingly.

"Little friend, what is the relationship between you and our family? This is the first time he has brought someone back to the orphanage for so many years."
