Followed

48.

When Wen Er woke up, it was dark around him, and there was no one beside him.

He stared at the ceiling in a daze for a long time, trying to sit up, but his arms were limp and weak, his waist seemed to be run over by a grinding wheel, and he was about to lose consciousness.

Wen Er lay peacefully on the spot, turning his neck occasionally. The picture of last night was still a little hazy in his mind, but his body remembered the deep pain and extreme happiness.

Not long after, the door was gently pushed open, and Bie Xu walked in lightly, and stopped walking when he saw Wen Er's eyes were open.

He cautiously confirmed, "You're awake."

"Hmm...um." Wen Er's voice was a little hoarse, and it took a few tries to find his normal tone.

The two looked at each other for a moment, this time it was Bie Xu who took the initiative to look away.

Wen Er suddenly felt a little funny, and seemed to understand Bie Xu's mood every time he saw him dodging shyly.

After a while, he asked softly, "What time is it?"

"Eleven, it's still early."

Wen Er looked around the dimly lit room, a little in disbelief: "Eleven at night?"

"No," Bie Xu quickly said clearly, "Eleven o'clock in the morning."

He stood there hesitating for a while, walked to Wen Er's bed, squatted down and looked at him at a very close distance, Wen Er also turned his head, and the distance between his lips was only a few centimeters.

Wen Er thought that Bie Xu would kiss him down, but he didn't, and even stepped back a little not obviously.Then Bie Xu stood up and walked to the window.

He opened the curtains a little, looked back at Wen Er, made sure that he had adapted to the light, and then slowly opened half of the curtains.

The golden sunlight came in, Wen Er tried to move, and moved into a position half leaning against the head of the bed with difficulty.

Bie Xu squatted beside his bed again, whispering like a thief, "I made porridge."

Wen Er couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud.

It was a rare time for Bie Xu to be in such an embarrassment, and he let Wen Er laugh, but kept his mouth shut unwillingly, adhering to the principle of saying less and making less mistakes.

He wasn't sure whether Wen Er suspected his poor porridge cooking skills, or laughed at his poor skills last night.

Fortunately, Wen Er didn't laugh for too long, at least half of Bie Xu's heart was relieved: "Okay, I'll try it later."

Biesu let out an "um" and straightened up, as if he was about to go out to serve porridge.He paused by the bed for two seconds, facing Wen Er's bright eyes, he still couldn't hold back, and lightly pecked at the corner of his eyes.

Wen Er couldn't help but want to laugh again.

He didn't expect that Bie Xu's innocence made him, who was always shy and evasive, bold.

Wen Er raised his face, touched Bie Xu's lips that he didn't want to leave, and comforted him: "I'm looking forward to your porridge."

It took Wen Er a long time to tidy himself up.He slowly moved into the dining room, and saw Bie Xu was guarding a pot of porridge waiting for him.

Seeing Wen Er come out, Bie Xu meticulously lifted the lid of the pot as if doing a chemical experiment, picked up the bowl, picked up the spoon, carefully and precisely scooped out a scoop, put it on his lips to feel the temperature, and then firmly Put into a bowl.

Wen Er secretly felt that as a kitchen novice who hadn't made any progress over the years, it was really not easy for Bie Xu to make such a pot of porridge, even if he only needed to prepare rice and water, set a set time and wait.

It's one thing to complain in your heart. After taking the bowl from Bie Xu, Wen Er was still very face-saving. He almost couldn't wait to take a sip, imitating Bie Xu's usual way of complimenting, and stretched out two thumbs in front of him: "It's very good." !"

Bie Xu also took a sip, and although he was very proud of himself, he still frowned, pretending to be modest and said: "It's still a bit too thick."

In fact, not only is it too thick, but also a little too much sugar is added, and it feels greasy after just one sip.

Wen Er thought of the scene where Bie Xu praised him in the past, took a deep breath secretly, and shook his head with a look of sincerity: "I think it's very good to drink, this is just right."

The warm time didn't last long, and Bie Xu's phone kept vibrating.

As soon as he looked at the caller ID - Zhou Rushi, he wanted to hang up immediately.

Bie Xu found out that Zhou Rushi was a very evil person, he would call at the time when he was least willing to be disturbed, and he would talk about some important things that would not be clear for a while.

Wen Er watched Bie Xu let the phone vibrate in his palm, neither hung up nor answered, and asked with some doubts: "What's wrong?"

Bie Xu literally pronounced the name viciously: "Zhou Ru is looking for me."

"Oh." Wen Er nodded, didn't ask any more questions, and continued to drink the porridge with difficulty under the mixed eyes of urging and hope.

Bie Xu answered the phone reluctantly, and Zhou Rushi's tone was not very good: "Why did you answer it?"

"Busy." Bie Xu cherished words like gold.

Zhou Ru should be suppressing his anger and speaking in a sinister tone: "Then can I trouble the busy person to take some time to hand in the manuscript?"

Bie Xu was taken aback, but he was still very serious about his work: "Didn't I hand in everything a few days ago?"

"There's also the article on the anniversary of the publication, brother! My great writer You! I didn't remind you that it didn't exist, right?"

Bie Xu flipped through the memo quickly, it was still the draft agreed more than a month ago, and Zhou Rushi never mentioned it afterward.He hurriedly checked the date and calculated the time: "I really don't remember you if you don't urge me."

Zhou Rushi on the other end might have been annoyed by him, and he didn't speak for a long time. When he spoke again, his tone had returned to normal, but he could still hear a bit of gnashing of teeth: "You still have to let me personally remind you, I will arrange for Zheng Zi and you Does the docking not work?"

"Zheng Zi?" Bie Xu frowned, "She never contacted me."

"She, no, contact, contact, past, you." Zhou Rushi repeated this sentence word by word, and then there was a knocking sound, probably because Zhou Rushi covered the phone on the table .Bie Xu clearly heard Zhou Rushi growl, followed by a louder movement, vaguely mixed with the little girl's flustered weeping.

Before Bie Xu could say anything, Zhou Ru cut off the phone directly.

Wen Er guessed that Bie Xu might have encountered a problem at work, raised his head and asked, "Are you all right?"

"It's nothing serious, it's just a little sudden."

Bie Xu frowned slightly, and he received a few calls from Zhou Rushi halfway through, and he only had time to exchange a few words.

"Zhou Rushi is busy and chaotic over there. I might go to the publishing house later and talk to him face to face."

"Okay." Wen Er nodded, "I just want to cut the video too."

When Bie Xu thought of the unsightly comments under Erya's video, he only felt worse.

Wen Er may have guessed what he was thinking, and specifically emphasized: "If I don't update, I will lose my job. Fans have been urging, and they are looking forward to my new video."

Only then did Bie Xu's expression soften a lot.

Compared with the original, now Erya's homepage can indeed be called a school of harmony.The barrage of comments that are too vicious are either reported or dismissed by fans, leaving behind praise and rational discussions.

He said he wanted to go out, but Bie Xu didn't move for a long time, sitting opposite him with his chin in his hand, watching Wen Er drink the porridge.

He took the empty bowl that Wen Er had managed to drink cleanly, filled it up again, watched Wen Er drink it up again, and when he heard him immediately express that he was full, he dilly-dally cleared the table , went to the room and changed a set of clothes for going out.

Wen Er still stayed in the dining room, Bie Xu glanced at the hard chair, his brows immediately frowned, and secretly hated himself for making such a major mistake.He hurriedly thought of a way to remedy it, walked over and bent over, trying to hug Wen Er to the sofa, but Wen Er hurriedly pushed him away.

Bie Xu had no choice but to hold Wen Er's computer, and followed him carefully like a mother, helped him to settle on the sofa, and put a few soft pillows on him, like dressing up a doll Yes, I adjusted Wen Er's clothes and hair again.

He reluctantly said goodbye to Wen Er, stopped Wen Er from standing up to see him off, walked slowly to the porch, turned around every step of the way, and created an atmosphere of never returning.

Wen Er didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and watched Bie Xu's figure disappear from his sight. Before he heard the sound of the door being unlocked, Bie Xu suddenly came back to him like a gust of wind.

Bie Xu held Wen Er's face and kissed it heavily, and said as if asking for credit: "When you finish posting, I will be the first to give you a thumbs up."

Bie Xu went out for a long time, and Wen Er also received a call from Bie Xu, only to realize that the sun was almost setting.

"Err, did you miss me?"

It seemed that it was the first time for Bie Xu to call Wen'er on the phone in folded characters. The two words were processed by electric current, which was softer and softer than when they heard them face to face.The background sound on the phone was very noisy, but Bie Xu's voice fell into Wen Er's ears clearly.

Wen Er was helpless. Hearing him ask like this, it seemed as if the two had been separated for several months, but in fact they hadn't seen each other for only a few hours.

However, Wen Er is used to cooperating with Bie Xu's straightforward greetings, and he has made up his mind to try his best to express his emotions actively. Instead of Bie Xu always trying to guess his thoughts, he can directly see his heart spread out in front of him.

"Well," Wen Er whispered, "I kind of miss you."

The other end of the phone was silent for a second, and there was no sound for a long time. After a short wait, the messy background sound disappeared, and only Bie Xu's tone was more urgent than usual: "Wait for me for another hour, I brought you dinner , go home immediately."

"Okay." Wen Er agreed, "waiting for your return."

The two got bored for a while, and it seemed that someone was calling Bie Xu at the other end. Afraid of disturbing his work, Wen Er hurriedly let him do it first.After coaxing a few more words, both sides reluctantly closed the line.

Wen Er sat cross-legged on the sofa, and concentrated on operating the computer for a long time before rubbing his sore eyes and closing the notebook when he was done.

He stretched his arms, twisted his waist, and moved his stiff limbs, but he still felt sore all over, especially the lower back. sequelae.

Wen Er changed his posture and lay down on the sofa for a while, picked up the phone and flipped through it casually, and was surprised to find that there were several unread messages from Biexu, maybe some settings were changed accidentally, but there was no reminder.

He quickly clicked on it, and there were a few messages before Bie Xu called him, and some received in the past hour, and the content was nothing more than reporting his work progress to him.

Wen Er scrolled down one by one, some ordinary words, but he read them back and forth many times, and couldn't restrain the smile on the corner of his mouth.

- Zhou Ru is going to be crazy busy, and I guess I won't be able to come back until very late today.

-Zheng Zi was scolded miserably and kept crying, and the more she cried, the harder she was trained, an endless loop.

-Running the manuscript under the nose of Editor-in-Chief Zhou, but I quite like the theme this time.

-Suddenly thought of an inspiration, if it can be realized, then forgive Zhou Rushi for pulling me to be a young man and delaying the time of our intimacy.

-It's a bit late, I'm still busy, have you eaten yet?

-Don't do it yourself, it's too much work, I'll order you a takeaway.

-Why is there no better takeaway around!

- why don't you call me back?

……

-I'm back! ! !

Wen Er saw that the last message was sent more than 40 minutes ago. After calculating the distance, it was time for Bie Xu to get home.

At this time, a series of messages came into the phone suddenly, and they were all sent by Zheng Zi.

After this girl added him as a friend, she only posted a cute emoji to say hello on the first day, and was active in a certain blog wearing the vest of "Did Zhou Bapi punish the long-term workers today?", fighting for Jingmin The first line of He Erya's love tears.

Wen Er quickly clicked on it to see, Zheng Zi used a row of huge lemons to refresh the screen, and a sentence followed at the bottom:

-You Youfang's surprise is loading.Progress: 99%/100%

Wen Er gave her an expectant expression back, and after a while, he still couldn't help but want to secretly show his affection.

He imitated Zheng Zi's sentence pattern and replied:

- Erya Surprise loading completed.Progress: 100%/100%.Waiting to receive.
