Followed

27.

The sun was about to sink, only a ray of light stubbornly poked in, stretched forward slowly, was mostly blocked by Bie Xu, and finally fell to an inch of Wen Er's chest. www.

Wen Er lowered his head slightly, staring at the thin light golden thread, his whole body froze.He even controlled his breathing carefully, lest he let out too loudly at a certain moment, and sprinkle another layer of frost on the already precarious situation.

He knew that Bie Xu was waiting for his response, but he tried several times, but he didn't know how to make a sound.

"I don't know..." In the end, Wen Er murmured blankly, "I don't know if I like men..."

"You don't have to like men."

Bie Xu said decisively, with an urgent look on his face, yet trying to remain gentle.The tired adult, who seemed to be trying to persuade the child to eat well, wanted to put the rice spoon straight into his mouth, but in the end he had to soften his tone and coax him patiently.

"As long as you like Bie Xu."

Hearing this, Wen Er looked up at him cautiously and quickly, then lowered his head in panic.

He bit his inner lip with his teeth and rubbed it back and forth bit by bit. The thumb of his right hand pinched the palm of his left hand, and the back of his hand with his index finger and middle finger. He gradually increased his strength until he felt pain before letting go.

The word "like" kept rolling and magnifying in Wen Er's mind, occupying all his thoughts, leaving him no chance to think about other things.

Wen Er still can't consider the final answer of agreeing or rejecting, but first doubts the conditions for the establishment of the question.

Why does he like me?

For Bie Xu's confession, rather than surprise, Wen Er felt more incredible and at a loss.

"I didn't believe in love at first sight before." Bie Xu said suddenly.

He loosened his shoulders, his back was gradually attached to the chair, his hands rested on his chest, and he adjusted to a comfortable posture, speaking in an ordinary chatting tone.

"My parents fell in love at first sight. At that time, one of them said that they married Dream, and the other said they married Love. As a result, they divorced when I was very young."

Wen Er immediately looked at him nervously.

Bie Xu smiled, waved his hand and said, "They broke up peacefully, and now they are living well. My dad is going to stay with his art for the rest of his life. My mother immigrated with her later husband, and gave birth to two mixed races. Baby."

Bie Xu flipped through the photo album, handed it to Wen Er, and boasted, "Isn't it cute?"

Wen Er glanced at it hastily, and commented casually: "Very cute."

Compared with the two strangers, he obviously cared more about the other mood.

"I'm really fine." Bie Xu sensed Wen Er's uncontrollable anxiety and distress, and laughed dumbfounded.

"I thought I would stop believing in love because of their divorce. But...it wasn't until I met you that I realized that it was their experience that taught me to be brave." Bie Xu paused meaningfully, looking at Wen Er: "If you like it, you have to work hard for it."

Bie Xu said affectionately: "The thing you love, goes deeper and deeper."

These words were pretentious, Wen Er looked away, not knowing what to say, but felt his face burn.

After a long time, he murmured, "I don't know why you like me."

"Actually, I don't know either." Bie Xu spread his hands, honestly a little out of place, "but this is fate."

Wen Er was silent for a while: "Do you think fate is reliable?"

"Unreliable." Bie Xu answered quickly. He looked at Wen Er's complicated face and smiled, "So I'm here to investigate."

"Facts have proved that my vision is right," Bie Xu opened his mouth and said, "If the full score is 99 points, the subject of the investigation can be rated as [-] points in my heart. He is gentle, kind, cute, and responsible..."

"Besides these." Wen Er interrupted him, "Besides these, I have nothing worthy of your liking."

"You are too greedy!" Bie Xu raised his eyebrows, exaggeratedly sighing, "Ordinary people are very happy if they have one of these qualities, but you are so dissatisfied!"

"That was not what I meant……"

"Because of these, you are Wen Er." Bie Xu sat up straight, and said seriously, "The one and only, the one I like."

Wen Er didn't avoid his gaze this time, but stared blankly at Bie Xu, as if to determine the answer from his eyes.

Wen Er has never been a person with low self-esteem, but he is very sensitive.It is also because he knows himself and is so self-aware that he feels unreal.

Few people said anything bad about him, but few people said to him directly: "You are very, very good."

Hearing Bie Xu say "I like you", Wen Er's first reaction was disbelief, followed by panic. He felt that there was no place in himself that could be worthy of such an outstanding person.

"Do you know where the point was deducted?" Bie Xu looked at him impartially, with a picky tone, but not frivolous, with a kind of relaxed sincerity.

"Because of your unknowing purity."

Bie Xu flipped through his memories, and fixed on his surprise and shock when he saw Wen Er for the first time.

"If I had to say what made me fall in love at first sight, it would be your purity. That is your quality that no one can replace, and it makes me feel ashamed."

Wen Er couldn't understand what this so-called "pure" was, but hearing Bie Xu's exaggerated description, he couldn't help making some rustling movements to cover up his shyness at this moment.

He slightly moved the broken hair on his forehead, and his fingertips slid down the side of his face, covering the hot nape of his neck. He rested his cheeks with his palms, his neck was slightly bent, and turned a little to the side, just to avoid Bie Xu's sight.

Seeing his little dodging movements, Bie Xu smiled slightly.

"If you don't object, then I will start chasing you."

As soon as the words fell, a "thump, thump, thump" sound suddenly came from above his head.

The two looked up at the same time, and saw a dazed face protruding from the middle of the stairs.

The day before Wen Ya followed the drama until dawn, woke up in the morning, washed her face and brushed her teeth in a vigorous manner, and continued to get into bed again. Only now is she officially waking up.

She saw Bie Xu at a glance, suspected that she was still dreaming, looked around in a trance, blinked vigorously, and confirmed weakly: "Brother Bie Xu?"

Bie Xu didn't expect Wen Ya to be at home, and he didn't know how much she had heard. Adhering to the principle of saying less and making less mistakes, he nodded and only called out affectionately: "Ya Ya."

"Why are you here?" Wen Ya asked in surprise.

She had already raised one foot, but now she was hesitant to put it down, leaning on the handrail of the stairs like this, combing the knotted hair with fingers, and took the time to wipe the corners of her eyes and lips.

"I'm here to find your brother."

"Oh." Wen Ya responded casually, completely unaware that the reason was vague and untenable.She grabbed the hem of her nightgown and changed several positions within a minute. Obviously, her image at the moment made her care more.

In the end, Wen Er made a rescue and said, "Go up and wash and change your clothes, then come down to eat."

"Okay." Wen Ya turned around obediently, and ran upstairs in a "da da da" manner.

Looking at her back, Wen Er and Bie Xu breathed a sigh of relief.

"She should..."

"did not hear!"

The two spoke at the same time, one nervous and the other happy.

Bie Xu smiled, and his tone was somehow reassuring: "It doesn't matter if you hear it, anyway, I will tell her sooner or later."

Wen Er couldn't help frowning, trying to refute "not necessarily", but in the end he didn't say anything.

Bie Xu became even more complacent, feeling that his career of chasing people had already got off to a good start.

He decided to make persistent efforts, so while rolling up his sleeves, he walked to the kitchen: "Let me make dinner."

"You do?" Wen Er was full of doubts in these two words.

"After all, I said I wanted to chase you."

As soon as these words came out, all Wen Er's next questions were sealed.

He watched Bie Xu walk into the kitchen, dug out a pot for a long time, turned it upside down out of thin air, and praised "it feels good".

Wen Er immediately opened the food delivery software and searched for nearby restaurants.

He usually doesn't allow Wen Ya to eat takeaway, it's unhygienic and unhealthy, but today is a special case, if he can't fix it and Bie Xu burns down the kitchen, at least there is something to save the world.

At this time, Bie Xu had already taken out the eggs and tomatoes, and was gesturing in a circle, as if thinking about how to cut the knife.

Wen Er breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately, Bie Xu didn't challenge the half chicken in the refrigerator as soon as he came up.

He hurried over, seeing Bie Xu's confident appearance, he was not good at directing, he just chose a corner that would not affect Bie Xu's movements, and stared at him hesitantly.

Bie Xu's cooking is very personal, and he pays attention to opening and closing, unrestrained and uninhibited.

The tomato was randomly cut a few times, and the egg was half broken, so he turned on the fire, picked up the oil pot, and tried to pour it into it.

Wen Er was silently reworking beside him while he was not paying attention, and when he saw him pouring oil like pouring water, he immediately moved over.

The oil in the pot had formed a small puddle, and Bie Xu still didn't want to stop, as if he still hadn't finished.Wen Er could only stop it with words, and try to make his tone as tactful as possible: "It should be enough."

"Is it enough?" Bie Xu didn't insist, but this question fully exposed how ignorant he was about cooking.

Wen Er struggled with his thoughts for a long time, and finally suggested: "After you finish scrambled eggs with tomatoes, I will do the rest."

"How can that be?" Bie Xu glanced at him warily while worrying about why the oil wasn't hot. "This is my chance to perform well. It is said that a man who can cook is a plus."

Wen Ermo stayed silent for a while, didn't comment on Bie Xu's naive declaration, just stretched out his hand to turn on the fire for him as if he couldn't bear to see it.

Bie Xu lowered his head abruptly, looking at the rising flames in disbelief.In a flash, he straightened up, and with an expression that he had expected, he waited for a few seconds, pretended to hang his hands on the pot, checked the temperature of the oil, and was about to pour the ingredients into it.

Wen Er watched him look around, as if looking for something, and silently handed over the plate containing the refinished diced tomatoes.

Bie Xu didn't see it at a glance, Wen Er simply poured it into the pot for him, and the instant oil powder smacked Bie Xu, and he dodged far away.

Wen Er naturally filled the vacant space of Bie Xu, grasped the spoon, turned his head and commented: "You seem to be a bit reluctant to cook."

After several failed attempts, Bie Xu finally realized that he was short of talent in cooking.

But the status of the chef can be given up, but the progress of chasing people cannot be hindered by this.

Be Xu immediately switched roles, sticking to Wen Er's side obediently, watching him deftly swinging the spoon to stir the pot, and asked insincerely, "What do you like?"

Wen Er dismissed him with a witty remark: "It's like Wen Ya."

But Bie Xu wasn't fooled: "Sister doesn't count, I mean the criteria for finding a boyfriend."

"Why must it be a boyfriend?" Wen Er asked deliberately.

"Because you don't want to find a girlfriend." Bie Xu answered quickly.

He has never lost a game of words, or nonsense.

But now he met someone who was even more ignorant.

"Who's looking for a boyfriend?"

Suddenly there was a suspicious sound from behind, Bie Xu and Wen Er turned their heads again at the same time, and saw Wen Ya who had been eluding her all day, looking at them with a strange expression.
