depicting time

After a long detour, when they arrived downstairs in the community, it was already past 2 pm.

Walking outside the car, the temperature dropped suddenly, Xu Yan couldn't help shivering, and exhaled a cloud of white air.Fortunately, Song Ting asked him to change into another suit, otherwise he would have been frozen to death just walking these few steps in the community.

"Xu Yan."

Hearing Song Ting behind him calling him, he immediately turned around.Song Ting took out a gadget from his coat pocket, it was small enough to hold in the palm of his hand. "This is a warmer invented by Fu Ye. It can keep you warm by holding it in your hand. It's useless to put it here. If you are so afraid of the cold, I will give it to you."

As he spoke, he pulled up Xu Yan's right hand, which was not in his pocket, and put this warm gadget on the palm of his hand. Heat spread from the palm of his hand, and Xu Yan held it unconsciously.

Song Ting let go of his hand immediately, and asked, "Is it warmer?"

"……Um."

Xu Yan's heart warmed even more at this time, and Song Ting, like him, was contradictory.Since you can't use it, why do you carry it all the time...

So, it's for him...

Xu Yan couldn't help raising his head to observe his expression, but he didn't find what he expected. Few people could hide their feelings in front of him, so if Song Ting wasn't one of those few people, then he really didn't mean anything extra, so Being careful and warm is just out of caring for friends.

After he figured out the answer, he didn't feel too disappointed. They didn't know each other for a long time, and it was too late for them to have an affair. How could they fall in love all of a sudden.

Putting his right hand into his pocket, he said, "Let's go up."

At this moment, Xu Yan was still in a happy mood.

But when he turned around and saw Li Shu walking towards him, his mood immediately turned sour.

I can't escape today's catastrophe...

Li Shu came towards them angrily and shouted, "Xu Yan!"

He pointed to Song Ting behind Xu Yan and asked, "Who is he? Didn't you say you don't have a boyfriend?"

"..."

Li Shu's tone at the moment really looked like his ex-boyfriend came to him... very confident.

However, his words directly exposed Xu Yan's secret. Xu Yan was very helpless. He looked at Song Ting with some trepidation. If Song Ting became disgusted with him because of this, he really didn't know how to deal with it.

It will be awkward for them to get along with each other in the future.

Fortunately, Song Ting's face was still very calm at this time, as if he hadn't heard anything unusual.

On the other side, Li Shu was still pestering, "You've been lying to me! You have a boyfriend and you still tell me you're single, pretending to be so noble, but actually enjoying the feeling of being chased by others, I didn't expect you to be so vain people!"

Finding out that your friend is gay is a completely different feeling than being mistaken for being gay. Xu Yan was worried that Li Shu would say something even worse, so he hurriedly denied, "Which of your eyes can tell that he is my boyfriend!"

"I've seen you holding hands and standing so close!"

"..."

An arrogant person like Li Shu would only trust his own judgment. He now believes that he has been deceived, and he will not listen to other excuses.

Xu Yan was too lazy to argue with him.

Song Ting stepped forward and defended him, "I'm not his boyfriend, I'm just a suitor."

Ok?

Many question marks popped up in Xu Yan's head.

Song Ting hid Xu Yan behind his back, just to cover Xu Yan's surprised expression at this time, otherwise his words would be exposed immediately.

Song Ting didn't stop being surprised, and continued, "Obviously, Xu Yan wants to be with me more, and you have no chance."

After calming down, Xu Yan already understood that Song Ting was just trying to drive him away.

Unexpectedly, Song Ting's acceptance of gay is so high, he underestimated Song Ting's tolerance.

Xu Yan thought again, since Song Ting has stepped forward, he should follow the trend.

So, Xu Yan walked up to Song Ting, wrapped his arm around him, and leaned slightly on his body. He believed that Song Ting, who was as stable as Mount Tai, would not be frightened by his small gesture, and said, "We I just met today, and I happen to have feelings for each other, although we are not a couple now, but we will definitely be in the future."

Song Ting turned his head to look, and smiled at him, as if they had only confirmed each other's mind at this time.

And Li Shu looked at the eye contact between the two of them, it didn't look like they just met, "You two are working together to play me? Are you pretending that you are not a couple?"

Song Ting pushed the person who had stepped forward again, but Li Shu didn't expect him to be so strong, so he easily pushed him away.

After keeping a certain distance, Song Ting said, "I believe that Xu Yan never agreed to your pursuit, so you have no reason to stand here and question. Instead, I have more reason to drive you away."

"You!" Li Shu wanted to lose his temper, but he didn't expect to be offended. He cursed angrily, "You son of a bitch!" Then he left with resentment.

Xu Yan waited for the others to walk away before letting go. Song Ting looked at him again when he took a step back. For some reason, he looked at Xu Yan and smiled again.

Xu Yan didn't know if his smile at this time was meant to be teasing. Song Ting might really belong to a very small number of people, and he still couldn't see through it after getting in touch.He put his hands back into his pockets, maintained a more secure posture, and tested Song Ting's attitude at this time, "He scolded you, are you not angry?"

Song Ting remained calm and said, "There's nothing to be angry about, let's go upstairs."

Xu Yan was relieved by his indifferent attitude.

After leaving for less than a day, the moment Xu Yan opened the door, Xu Yan felt like a lifetime away.Everything at home is exactly the same as when he left, but his situation and mentality have changed too much.

The "Phenomenology of Spirit" he had read yesterday was left on the coffee table in the living room, and the recliner and astronomical telescope were put into his study.

He left in such a hurry that he didn't even have time to take care of the rose in the vase, allowing it to wither ahead of time, and he could only throw it into the trash can when he came back.

Xu Yan asked Song Ting to sit down on the sofa, "I pack things slowly, it will take a while, would you like something to drink?"

"No, you can tidy up as you like, don't worry about me." He sat down on the sofa, picked up the book on the coffee table and looked through it.

As a guest, he was much more comfortable than as a host, Xu Yan.

"Okay, I'll try to hurry up."

Xu Yan packed some winter clothes, a few thick coats filled the suitcase to the brim, and the clothes for changing seasons would have to wait until next time.

The things in the refrigerator were all emptied, some were taken away by him, and the other part was thrown into the trash can.When the two suitcases were full, he realized that he didn't bring any books.

The newly bought books in the bookcase were all he planned to read in the next month. When he took them all out and piled them on the table, Xu Yan realized that the weight would be quite heavy. After all, the books he bought were quite thick. of.

Xu Yan thought for a while, and could only turn to Song Ting for help.When he walked to the living room, Song Ting was still flipping through the "Phenomenology of Spirit", as if he was very absorbed in it.

But he had to interrupt, "Team leader."

Song Ting looked up at him and asked, "Are you done cleaning?"

"It's almost there, but I have a few books that I can't carry."

Song Ting immediately understood what he meant, and said, "It's okay, I'll get it for you." He closed the book, looked at the time on his watch, "It's almost time, we can have dinner when we get back to the safe house."

"it is good."

When getting up, Song Ting asked again, "Does anyone come to see you normally?"

Xu Yan thought that he was worried about the hidden danger of revealing his identity, so he immediately replied, "No, my parents rarely come here, so even if I don't live here, not many people will pay attention."

"Yeah." After Song Ting nodded, he changed the subject and asked, "Then how did Li Shu know?"

"he……"

Why did you suddenly ask about Li Shu?

However, his answer reminded Song Ting of this question, which seemed normal.Xu Yan could only reply truthfully, "My mother told him, that, he was my blind date before."

He hurriedly said again, "But when we meet, we will turn yellow."

"Yeah." Song Ting was inexplicably silent for a while, and then asked suddenly, "Are you still going on blind dates?

Xu Yan was taken aback by his question. It was an embarrassing topic, but he still asked it...

What's more frightening is that such a question is too jealous!

However, Song Ting let him down again, and continued, "The future work should affect your interactions with other people."

It turned out that I was worried about affecting my blind date...

Xu Yan completely regained his composure, "I won't go on blind dates again, the last time was because I promised my mother."

And then I just needed a boyfriend...

"It's fine if it doesn't affect you." He seemed to let go of his worries, and heaved a sigh of relief, "Let's go back."

Song Ting possessed great strength in the fragments of time and space, and in reality, his strength was stronger than that of ordinary people.Holding Xu Yan's large suitcase in one hand and carrying the bookcase on his shoulder with the other, he walked downstairs with ease.

But Xu Yan only carried a suitcase, and the process of walking from the sixth floor to the first floor had exhausted him.

After putting all the things into the trunk, Xu Yan rubbed his wrists and tapped his arms a few more times. It is estimated that both arms will be sore when he wakes up tomorrow.Song Ting saw his movements and asked, "Did your hand hurt?"

Xu Yan quickly shook his head, stopped his hands, "No."

He didn't want Song Ting to know that he was such a weak person.

Song Ting seemed to be about to say something again, but was interrupted by a bell ringing in his pocket. He took out the elderly phone, "Old Wang, do you have a mission?"

After listening to the words over there, he replied, "Okay, let's rush there as soon as possible."

Song Ting closed the trunk door with one hand, and he was no longer in a relaxed state, "There is a mission on Line 1 in Area A, let's go there now."

"Okay." Xu Yan immediately followed him into the car.

The two quickly left the community and rushed to the subway station.

When he was about to arrive at the entrance of Line 1, Song Ting told Xu Yan, "Later, if you take the subway alone, the space-time fragments will definitely be inside. It doesn't matter which subway it is, it will definitely appear. You just need to go in and wait." Let it appear on its own initiative, and then sit until the last stop, Lianchun Station, to lure it out. I will wait for you at Exit C."

Xu Yan listened carefully to what he said, and asked, "Can I lure it? The first time I saw it, it ran away when it saw me."

At that time, he was still chasing time and space fragments all over the street.

Song Ting told him the reason, "That's because you haven't entered the fragment of time and space, and now it will definitely follow you."

"Understood." Xu Yan felt relieved. Although he was performing the task alone, the task was not too difficult, as long as he took the subway as usual.

At the entrance of the station, Song Ting put Xu Yan down in the car, but he did not forget to say before parting, "Don't be nervous, I will wait for you at the finish line."

Xu Yan bent down, smiled slightly at the person in the car window, and replied, "Okay."
