After the annual meeting, it's the annual vacation. The tradition of the Ye family is that everyone has to go back to the old house for a reunion, but this tradition has been broken in Ye Xingze's generation. The younger generation has arrangements for the New Year, and they are impatient to go back. To deal with those elders, Ye Xingze stayed behind after greeting his father and mother.

It happened to be with Mu Xihe as well.

Saying to accompany, really accompany, accompany to buy new year's goods, accompany to decorate the home, accompany to cook, Ye Xingze is a hands-free shopkeeper, watching Mu Xihe busy all the time, at most helping to check out or handing something, But Mu Xihe was already very satisfied.

Mu Xihe was that kind, he was happy when Ye Xingze stood beside him, and he didn't want Ye Xingze to do anything at first.

"Brother Xingze, come and taste." Mu Xihe scooped up a spoonful of soup and handed it to Ye Xingze who was eating a lollipop standing at the kitchen door.

Ye Xingze leaned over when he heard the words, and Mu Xihe blew twice before handing it to Ye Xingze's mouth. The soup is tomato beef soup with a slightly sweet and sour taste. Mu Xihe is very skillful in making it, and all the ingredients are just right, "It's delicious. .”

"As long as it tastes good, you can help me get the soup bowl." It was already past eight o'clock in the evening, and the city was strictly controlled. Fireworks and firecrackers were strictly prohibited, and they could be secretly set off in the suburbs, but not in the city. Looking out from the window, the whole city is brightly lit, reflecting the dark and cold night, which also has a special charm.

The two of them are at Mu Xihe's house, because the kitchen of Ye Xingze's house is really deserted, but the layout of the two houses is similar. There is a large glass curtain wall in the living room, and the two of them moved a short dining table over there. , The Spring Festival Gala was playing on the TV in the living room, watching the lights outside the window and the fireworks that were set off from time to time in the distant suburbs, the two sat on the carpet, surrounded by a table of steaming meals.

"Come on, Xihe, grow up another year." Ye Xingze lifted up the Coke first, and touched it with Mu Xihe. The two took a sip before starting.

Ye Xingze's favorite dishes are all remembered by Mu Xihe in his heart. In his previous life, because he believed what his friend said, "If you want to grab a man's heart, you must first grab his stomach", Mu Xihe took it to heart. Following Ye Xingze's taste to learn cooking skills, the steps and ingredients are clearly memorized.

"Xihe, you're not very old, but you cook delicious food." Ye Xingze picked up a piece of braised pork ribs and put it into his mouth. The ribs are the kind that are very suitable for cooking. They are small bones surrounded by a circle The meat would explode with just one bite, Ye Xingze squinted his eyes in satisfaction.

"Because... because I like it, I learned it specially." Ye Xingze's casual words made Mu Xihe's heart skip a beat. He lowered his head to drink the soup, but kept paying attention to Ye Xingze's reaction from the corner of his eyes.

Ye Xingze had a keen mind, and when he saw Mu Xihe's reaction, he realized that what he said looked like a temptation in the eyes of the other party. Today's Chinese New Year, Ye Xingze didn't want to make Mu Xihe worry, so he praised Mu Xihe's words , "Then you are great, unlike me, you can't even watch what you make."

"Has Brother Xingze still cooked?" Mu Xihe smiled at first, and then asked strangely after hearing the last sentence.

This time it was Ye Xingze's turn to be stunned for a moment, and said without changing his face, "I'm bored at home, I just do whatever I want, and they all collapse in the end."

Ye Xingze made an indescribable expression, then put a piece of meat in Mu Xihe's bowl, and ended the topic.

After eating, the bowls and chopsticks were piled up there, and the two of them sat on the sofa to watch the Spring Festival Gala. Now there are many songs and dances in the Spring Festival Gala. Xihe, "I'll sleep for a while, call me when the countdown begins."

Mu Xihe added another pillow to Ye Xingze, and took a blanket from the bedroom to cover Ye Xingze's body. Ye Xingze was already fast asleep, and his mouth opened slightly unconsciously. His hair that he didn't take care of today was a little messy. , lined with clean and delicate eyebrows, the whole face should be buried in the blanket.

Mu Xihe stared quietly at the side, his fingers hung in the air to outline the outline of Ye Xingze's face, and finally stopped on his lips, probably because he had just finished eating, his thin lips were very rosy, Mu Xihe approached slightly , and finally gave up, just turned around and nestled beside Ye Xingze.

Time passed by little by little, and the moonlight outside the window gradually shone into the room, reflecting on the faces of the two of them, Ye Xingze frowned uncomfortably, opened his eyes, tilted his head and saw Mu Xihe sleeping next to him , with his head tilted slightly, leaning against the back of the sofa, he could touch Ye Xingze's shoulder just a little bit.

Ye Xingze shrugged his shoulders, his voice was lazy and tired, "Wake up, I told you to call me, you are still asleep, get up, the countdown is about to begin."

"Oh." Although Mu Xihe's sleep was short, he slept soundly, probably because he could feel the reassuring presence around him. He sat up straight, moved his sore neck slowly, and his movements were laziness Yes, it's rare to show a bit of childishness.

Ye Xingze looked at it strangely. He stretched out his hand to pinch Mu Xihe's fleshy cheeks, gently pulled it, and raised his voice, "Wake up—wake up! The moon is drying its ass!"

"It hurts!" Mu Xihe's voice changed, mumbled. Mu Xihe who just woke up was not as gentle as when he was awake. Afterwards.

"I didn't use any force, why does it hurt?" Ye Xingze curled his lips, but he didn't let go, and squeezed viciously, the hand felt soft, and he squeezed it with insatiable desire, before letting go.

There were two red marks on Mu Xihe's cheeks. Taking advantage of his fair complexion, Ye Xingze looked at it curiously, "It's so easy for you to leave marks, I obviously didn't use my strength."

"You pinched me, and blamed me for leaving marks easily, I want to pinch it back." Mu Xihe glared at Ye Xingze, and reached out to touch Ye Xingze's face, but Ye Xingze dodged it.

Mu Xihe, who had already woken up, didn't even think about pinching, but Ye Xingze refused to let him pinch, so Mu Xihe really wanted to try, so he just threw himself on Ye Xingze, and the two of them laughed and quarreled.

"Okay!" Ye Xingze controlled Mu Xihe's hand pretending to be majestic, and coughed, "Get up and sit down. How old are you? Are you childish?"

Mu Xihe struggled twice with little strength, and was about to sit up obediently when Ye Xingze grabbed his face again in a sneak attack.

Now there are two red marks on both sides, quite symmetrical, Ye Xingze took a look and laughed out loud.

"Still laughing, it's all your fault." Mu Xihe glared at him, rubbed his face, tried to get up from Ye Xingze, but he misplaced his feet, and finally jumped up again, his posture was much better than before. Much more intimate when playing.

Mu Xihe was the first to react, and kissed Ye Xingze's lips. He stared at Ye Xingze's lips for a long time before going to sleep, but now he got his wish, and immediately got up and sat down, smiling proudly with four red marks on his face, like I took advantage of myself.

"A truce!" Seeing that Ye Xingze was about to start, Mu Xihe immediately raised his hands in surrender, and accompanied by the sound of the countdown on the TV, he laughed, "The New Year is here, I'll go get you a present."

After finishing speaking, he ran into the bedroom in a flash, looking like a cat that has been stealing successfully. Hearing the boy's laughter, Ye Xingze was stunned, showing a helpless smile.

Then he saw Mu Xihe bring out a big box.

It is a lottery-style blind box that children often play. There are 23 boxes, large and small.

"What is this - what?" Ye Xingze walked over in surprise as he looked at the big box with a width of one meter.

Mu Xihe put the box in front of Ye Xingze with a little effort, "Brother Xingze, come, it's all yours."

"Why are there so many?" Ye Xingze sat on the carpet with his legs bent, curiously touching the big sealed box.

"Because there are a lot of things I want to give away, Brother Xingze, quickly dismantle them." Mu Xihe, who was also sitting next to Ye Xingze, urged.

Ye Xingze poked the biggest box first. Inside was a black scarf, which was soft to the touch. The three letters "YXZ" were embroidered on one side of the scarf. The workmanship was not so detailed, and the letters looked a little skewed. Ye Xingze unfolded the scarf. , only to find that the scarf is very long, and it can hang down for a long time after wrapping it loosely around the neck twice, "Did you make it yourself?"

"Is it powerful?" Mu Xihe's eyes brightened, "Quickly dismantle the second one."

Ye Xingze picked another box, inside was a small garrison, the pattern embroidered on it was very delicate, but looking carefully, you could see that the stitches were a little messy, Ye Xingze pinched it, there seemed to be something inside, just about to take it apart but Stopped by Mu Xihe, "It can't be dismantled, it won't work if it is dismantled."

"What's in it?" Ye Xingze stopped when he heard that, but squeezed it outside again, and asked, "A note?"

"It's a secret, it won't work if you tell it." Mu Xihe pretended to be profound, and urged Ye Xingze to continue tearing it down.

There were 21 boxes left, and Ye Xingze took out a bunch of things one after another, including ties, belts, wallets, and two big boxes of lollipops and snacks. The box looks quite spectacular.

Facts have proved that this blind box-style way of opening gifts is very attractive to human beings no matter how old they are. Every box contains carefully prepared surprises. It is hard not to feel emotional. Ye Xingze At the end of the dismantling, I still look a little dissatisfied.

Just the last box left.

Ye Xingze looked at the pile of presents placed beside him, but couldn't think of what else Mu Xihe could give him, and was even more eager to pierce the thin paper on the box.

Mu Xihe suddenly pressed Ye Xingze's hand, and Ye Xingze looked at him puzzled, only to see Mu Xihe let out a long breath and said intently, "Tear it down."

Ye Xingze had some premonitions, but he didn't have any answers in his heart, but he was still in the mood to tease Mu Xihe. He tapped the thin paper with his fingers, deliberately not piercing it, watching Mu Xihe's expression getting more and more focused, as if He didn't realize that he was procrastinating on purpose, that appearance made Ye Xingze's heart soften a bit.

With a little force on the fingertips, the crisp sound of the paper being torn seemed to explode in the ears of the two.

Inside is a chain, but the point is not the chain itself, but after the chain is pulled out, a small silver tail ring hangs at the lower end.
