Quick Wear: Don't come over here, you are looking for trouble

There were a few days when Chen Zui was very strange.

Chen Zui never left Xu Bai alone at home before.

But then one day, he didn't come back until almost dawn.

Xu Bai was wrapped in fear. Whenever the sticky darkness rushed over him unstoppably, he couldn't help but want to hear Chen Zui's voice, want to call him, and miss his warm hug.

Chen Zui did not send any message. Xu Bai lay on the bed, pulling the quilt, and repeatedly turned on his mobile phone, hoping to see a text message or missed call on the screen.

Unfortunately there is nothing.

Where did it go?

The clock hands turned round and round, and Xu Bai finally couldn't help it. He dialed the familiar number and listened to the "beep" sound.

"Hello? Xiaobai?"

Chen Zui's voice sounded a little surprised. "Ah, it's so late. I didn't check the time. Why didn't you call me earlier?"

"Have you eaten? I'll be right back."

Xu Bai blinked, tears streaming down his face almost the instant he heard Chen Zui's voice. He clutched his phone tightly, his eyes warily scanning his surroundings.

Ghost eyes and ghost hands were peeking around. Xu Bai clenched his palms and finally couldn't help but make a sound. It was a cry and a complaint with grievance, "You didn't come back..."

There was a pause on the other end.

"I...I'm sorry, Xiaobai, I was busy just now."

"I'm going back now. Is there anything you want to eat? I'll bring it back for you. Is baking too much? There probably aren't any cake shops open at this time. I'll make it for you tomorrow..."

Xu Bai listened to his voice and finally felt a moment of relief.

I turned over and was about to say "hmm" when I suddenly heard what seemed to be a girl's voice on the other end of the receiver.

A little blurry.

Just as he was about to listen carefully, Chen Zui's phone seemed to be covered by something, and the sound became blurry and unclear.

Is there anything I can’t hear?

Is there anything that brother wants to avoid me from saying?

Xu Bai wanted to cry again, so he buried himself in the quilt.

……

"I'm back! Xiaobai?"

The sound of the door opening was obvious, and Xu Bai could already recognize the footsteps as belonging to Chen Zui.

"Xiaobai...is he asleep?"

Xu Bai heard the rustling of plastic bags, then the sound of shoes being changed and the faucet being turned on.

The quilt was lifted up a little.

Xu Bai had already planned to ignore him.

As a result, when the familiar body approached, he couldn't help but respond to Chen Zui's hug.

Chen Zui smiled softly and touched Xu Bai's hair gently as always.

Xu Bai asked, "What did you do?"

"Wash your face." Chen Zui didn't answer his question. "Come on, eat less. I won't come back so late next time."

Teenagers are a sensitive time.

Being too young and inexperienced, it is inevitable that one will be suspicious in relationships.

The words Xu Bai wanted to ask were stuck in his throat.

He turned over and avoided Chen Zui's gaze, "I'm not hungry, I don't want to eat."

Xu Bai had been waiting for Chen Zui to confess his love to him, but he waited and waited, year after year, and nothing happened. So what kind of relationship was there between them? Without a formal confession, were they just together in this muddled way?

I always feel uneasy.

Plus……

The faint voice of a girl...

Xu Bai kept his eyes open until a faint bright color appeared behind the curtains, and he had no desire to sleep.

The next day was the weekend.

"Xiaobai." Chen Zui's voice was low, almost close to his ear, "Brother is leaving first. Breakfast is in the refrigerator. Make sure it's heated up long enough before eating."

"I'll call you later and we'll go out for dinner."

"...You're so long-winded." Xu Bai closed his eyes and frowned slightly. He stretched out his hand and pushed around in the air a few times, muttering, "Go and do your thing."

Eat it.

The door is closed.

Xu Bai slowly pushed away the quilt, sat up from the bed, and smoothed his slightly long hair back.

weekend.

My brother went out again.

Xu Bai couldn't let it go.

He put on his slippers, opened the refrigerator and saw the sandwiches neatly wrapped in wax paper and plastic wrap, and even two of his favorite stir-fries next to them.

Chen Zui didn’t know how to cook before - he was a boy after all. He could just throw the vegetables into the pot and cook them until they were cooked. At worst, he could just go to a restaurant to eat, or takeout was also a good choice.

Until Xu Bai fell ill after eating takeout with him.

He had a fever in the middle of the night and vomited several times in succession. His face turned pale and his whole body felt weak, which frightened Chen the most. He hugged the boy's burning body and coaxed him to drink the fever-reducing medicine along his thin back. At the same time, he decided to buy fresh ingredients and learn to cook.

Although I still eat takeout occasionally.

——But I have personally visited that barbecue restaurant. The kitchen is clean and tidy. The price is a bit expensive, but the food is all good and made with real ingredients.

……

"Brother Chen, you hid it too well. What if sister-in-law is really angry? And Xiaoyao, you shouldn't have suddenly spoken to Brother Chen yesterday. He was on the phone--"

"Hey, you're nagging! Can you please get back to work?"

The short-haired girl who was named carefully checked whether the petals on the ground were evenly scattered, and then reached out and pushed the acrylic board that had been customized a long time ago. The two little people and the white cat on the board were specially made into protruding three-dimensional shapes, which were extremely cute.

"Almost done, Brother Chen, please check it again. If everything is ok, we'll all leave. The flowers should be delivered soon."

"Okay." Chen Zui nodded. He looked around and suddenly became nervous. "I'll treat you to a big dinner after this."

The people who came to help were arm in arm, and before leaving they made a "come on" gesture to Chen Zui.

Xu Bai received a call from Chen Zui.

"It's me... Um, have you eaten yet?"

"I sent you an address, did you see it? Come over to me, I have something to tell you." However, Chen Zui was also worried that Xu Bai would overthink it, so he quickly reminded him, "Take a taxi, forget it... I'll get it for you. I've also sent the last license plate number. Put on your clothes, you hear me?"

Why so suddenly?

Xu Bai turned on the hands-free mode and looked at the location Chen Zui had sent him. It looked unfamiliar, but it seemed to be a fairly famous B&B.

What does it mean?

Confused speculations occupied my sleep-deprived mind, and I was not very clear-headed when I opened the car door and got in.

This "unconsciousness" continued until he, under the guidance of the front desk, knocked on the door that Chen had prepared for him.

Chen Zui rarely wears a suit.

He looks very handsome in a suit, like a truly upright man.

Xu Bai opened his eyes wide: ...

The scene before him was different from everything he had imagined.

"Why didn't you tell me!"

"Why didn't you tell me... I thought, I thought..."

Xu Bai's breathing stagnated and tears streamed down his face. He carefully stroked the ring with one hand, and Chen Zui's half-kneeling figure began to become blurred.

"This kind of thing."

A gentle hand wiped away the tears that kept flowing from him. "How could you tell me that in advance? Okay, okay, don't cry, don't cry. Xiaobai has been wronged."

"You haven't answered me yet, are you willing to be with me?"

Xu Bai: "Nonsense, nonsense."

He burst into tears and couldn't stop sobbing, "Of course, of course I am willing to be with Chen Zui, a big fool."

Of course.

How could I not be willing?

Chen lowered his head and finally kissed the person in front of him.

The ground was covered with petals and colored paper, the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers, a large bouquet of roses was placed safely, and Xu Bai hooked his hand around Chen Zui's.

The two stopped talking and just held each other's fingers tightly.
