Prohibition of losing contact

If he had known that the drink would have such a strong aftertaste, Zhou Qingbai swore that he would have taken a taxi home by himself before the "last drink".

At 08:30 in the morning, Zhou Qingbai's self-set alarm clock rang on time. As soon as he opened his eyes, before his consciousness completely recovered, the memories of last night were instantly poured into his mind like a cloud transmission.

At first, he thought he was dreaming, but he didn't realize anything until he woke up for a while. His whole body seemed to be frozen for a few seconds, and then he slowly grabbed the edge of the quilt and buried himself in it, like a flower of nature. Closed Mushrooms.

Zhou Qingbai: "..."

It's over, Zhou Qingbai thought helplessly, what he drank last night should not be wine, but fate.

Zhou Qingbai doesn't think there's anything shameful about being drunk and crazy. He has a big heart and is playful. He has seen all kinds of monsters and ghosts in nightclubs for a long time. Wife's are everywhere, no one has to laugh at anyone.

But the problem is, when he thought about forcing Pei You to confess his love to him in public, he felt that he was really... too beastly.

He drank too much last night, his consciousness was not clear, and his actions were all based on instinct. Now that he recalled it, he felt that the scene was a disaster.

The drunk didn't notice it at the time, but Zhou Qingbai remembered it clearly. Last night, Pei You was at a loss, stuttering, hesitating, wanting to break a sentence into two pieces, and the roots of his ears were so red that he could drip blood. The appearance of a professional elite.

The drunkard didn't notice this, and he just focused on asking people "Do you like me", and would never stop until he got an answer, just like a bully who bullies decent women and men in the street.

Zhou Qingbai couldn't help but raised his hands to cover his face, and the base of his ears began to turn red slowly.

Too... too much, Zhou Qingbai thought in confusion.

Pei You was thin-skinned and introverted, Zhou Qingbai only thought about it from his perspective, and wished he could dig out a villa for his toes.

...Help, Zhou Qingbai thought helplessly, I might as well knock myself to death with a wine bottle.

But embarrassment is embarrassment, everything that happened last night cannot be erased from the world line, Zhou Qingbai was silent for a while, put down his hand, and sighed deeply.

Shame and embarrassment aside, in fact, his heart is very confused now - he just understood his feelings for Pei You yesterday, that is, he didn't carefully sort out his messy mood, and he didn't think about the next step of "like" How should I go? I didn't plan to have a showdown with Pei You so early, who knew that after a meal of wine, I shook my head out.

Everything ahead is foggy, only the "like" he said stood upright, like a lighthouse, looking fragile and thin.

Zhou Qingbai felt a little regretful in his heart, and also a little uneasy about something beyond his control. He put the back of his hand against his eyes, and sighed again as if worried.

But regret is regret, what happened can't be regarded as ignorance.Zhou Qingbai looked foolish, but in fact, he had received an upright education since he was a child, and he had a bit of traditional decent thinking in his bones, so he couldn't do things like a coward.

He gritted his teeth, forced himself to suppress the unceasing uneasiness in his heart, and thought desperately, anyway, this is the way it is, since Pei You is also interested in him, it's better to make the mistake and just take one step at a time.

Zhou Qingbai gritted his teeth to cheer himself up, and was mentally preparing himself like brainwashing himself, when he heard a sporadic sound of water coming from the toilet next to him.

Zhou Qingbai: "..."

By the way, Zhou Qingbai belatedly remembered that last night he was afraid that Pei You would go on a blind date, so he said nonsense that he would not let Pei You go, and just stayed with him for a night.

Fortunately, this is a suite, Zhou Qingbai thought painfully, otherwise he would really be a bully who kidnaps and sells good women and men.

In the next second, the door of the bathroom opened and closed, Pei You walked out, wiped his hands with a tissue, and glanced in the direction of the bed.

On the big bed, Zhou Qingbai was lying upright, covering himself tightly with the quilt. At first glance, it looked like a murder scene. Pei You was stunned, a little worried that he was bored, and walked over lightly, wanting to help him Pull the quilt down.

It's just that he tugged and didn't move, and thought for a while in wonder before he realized something.

"Are you awake?" Pei You said softly, "Don't get stuffy in the quilt, the air is not good."

Zhou Qingbai didn't speak, just rustled under the quilt for a while, and then stretched out a hand from the quilt.

Seeing this, Pei You curled his lips into a slight smile, then sat down on the edge of the bed, habitually reached out to catch his hand, and held it lightly in his palm.

The moment their skin touched each other, Pei You and Zhou Qingbai simultaneously remembered the intimate and childish holding hands last night, the familiar touch brought a little inexplicable throbbing, and Pei You instantly remembered the sticky thin sweat on the palms of last night, There is that steaming temperature.

Zhou Qingbai seemed to be the same as him, his muscle memory was greater than his reason, and he took Pei You's hand tightly first.

It's all pulled, and it's obviously unrealistic to add mushrooms. Zhou Qingbai cheered himself up for the last time, then pulled off the quilt, took a deep breath, and said: "Last night..."

It was obviously difficult to bring up this topic, Zhou Qingbai subconsciously paused for a moment, but before he could continue, he was interrupted by Pei You.

"You were drunk last night." Pei You said, "What you say doesn't count."

Zhou Qingbai was stunned for a moment, then realized something, and said in his heart that Pei You has always been considerate, and if it was difficult for him, it would not be surprising that he would take the initiative to give him a step down.

"You think I've forgotten things?" Zhou Qingbai explained, "No, I remember—"

"I know." Pei You bent his eyes slightly, made a rare joke, poked the quilt on him, and said, "I can see it."

"But you were drunk last night, so you don't have to be responsible for your drunken words." Pei You said seriously: "You can have more time to think about it, and treat our relationship carefully."

It is said that people tell the truth after drinking, Pei You does not doubt whether Zhou Qingbai's liking for him is true, he just wants to give Zhou Qingbai more time, instead of letting him accept it in a daze.

Zhou Qingbai: "..."

It was only then that Zhou Qingbai understood that Pei You's upbringing and conduct were not enough to support him to "take advantage of the situation", that's why he demanded to erase everything from last night so that Zhou Qingbai could "calm down" again.

Having been together with Pei You for more than half a year, Zhou Qingbai had almost forgotten his first impression of Pei You, but at this moment, he suddenly felt the aggrieved feeling of facing a gentleman for a long time.

But I have to say that Pei You's proposal really made Zhou Qingbai heave a sigh of relief, and it also let go of the tension in his heart.

He worked hard, then declined again, and exhausted three times. Zhou Qingbai's previous mental preparations were interrupted several times by Pei You, and he pursed his lips. He gave up the idea of ​​"just make a mistake" and acquiesced to Pei You's words.

After all, liking can be impulsive or involuntary, but confessing and establishing a relationship are responsibilities, which need to be treated with caution.

Zhou Qingbai is no longer a child, of course he can tell whether he likes Pei You, but the concept of "like" is too strange to him, like a new field suddenly opened up, so unfamiliar that it makes him flustered.

This new feeling once again broke Zhou Qingbai's comfort zone, making him in a dilemma and at a loss as to what to do.

From an emotional point of view, Zhou Qingbai's instinct has been clamoring to get closer to Pei You. He wants to possess him, and even more so, he wants to stand beside him as it should be; but rationally, Zhou Qingbai feels retreated.

He didn't know if he was ready for Pei You to live a good life - firstly, he didn't manage his traditional family, and secondly, he failed to make a career on his own. Qingshan is good, but it's not him after all. His painstaking effort cannot be counted as his bargaining chip.

Before he realized what he wanted, Zhou Qingbai was picking and choosing Pei You's possible blind date partners, but now that those partners were replaced by himself, he didn't get over this problem.

It is said that sorrow arises from love, Zhou Qingbai felt that others were hypocritical when he was alone, but now that he has spread it on his own head, he understands what it feels like.

It turns out that liking someone really makes people feel in a dilemma. They both want to be close to him and worry that they are not good enough.

Pei You didn't know about the twists and turns in his heart, he sat by the bed for a while, saw Zhou Qingbai was in a daze, then squeezed his hand, and said: "It just so happens that I'm going on a business trip starting tomorrow, short One week, half a month at most, we will discuss this issue after I come back."

"...Going on a business trip so suddenly?" Zhou Qingbai came back to his senses and said, "Have you been away for so long?"

"It's a cooperative project." Pei You said, "The work is not difficult, but it's tedious, and we need to take care of the partner's time."

Zhou Qingbai let out a sigh, thinking that this node was too coincidental, just now he was about to separate after talking about his love in a hurry.

"However, although what I said last night doesn't count, I still have something to say." Pei You paused, and then said: "You said before that you owe me a favor, and now I want to get it back."

Pei You lowered his head slightly, stared into Zhou Qingbai's eyes, and whispered, "Give me a chance to chase you."

His voice was soft and soft, but still with a bit of solemnity, Zhou Qingbai's heart moved slightly, as if something had been gently touched by him, it was sour and soft.

The anxiety and uneasiness that had been surging in his heart subsided for a moment like a flood, revealing the warm sand underneath.Zhou Qingbai smiled lightly, and suddenly said: "Do I still need to chase?"

Pei You was taken aback for a moment, but Zhou Qingbai didn't explain. He just gently hooked Pei You's cuff with his fingertips, and said, "...Come back early."
