Quick Wear: Cousin, Come to the Bowl Quickly

Although only one night had passed since their last video call, Lin Xi felt for the first time the real meaning of the phrase "One day without seeing you feels like three months."

She suddenly stood up, walked to the closet, pulled open the door, and began to rummage around anxiously.

After a moment, Lin Xi, holding He Yanyang's pajamas, threw herself into the bed, buried her head in the fluffy fabric, and did not move for a long time.

The clothes had been washed long ago, and the laundry detergent they both used was the lavender scent selected by Lin Xi. Logically, the smell on He Yanyang's clothes should not be any different from that on hers.

But feeling the soft touch on her cheek and smelling the faint fragrance around her nose, Lin Xi seemed to be back to the scene when she was held in He Yanyang's arms and buried her head in his chest.

But clothes are just clothes after all. Even if they have the same touch and smell, they do not have the same warmth as He Yanyang's body.

Lin Xi raised her head from her clothes, stood up and walked to the table, picked up her mobile phone, hesitated for a long time, and finally chose to dial between dialing and video calling.

She didn't want He Yanyang to see her red nose and wet eyes at this moment - even though she knew that at this time of day, he was usually in training and his cell phone had not been delivered yet, so he couldn't answer her call.

But when the surging thoughts come up, people's behavior becomes irrational.

I thought it would be a busy tone, but to Lin Xi's surprise, almost at the moment the ring rang, He Yanyang's somewhat surprised voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hey! Xixi!"

There was obvious joy in He Yanyang's rising tone. Lin Xi's nose suddenly felt sore, and the tears that she had been holding back for a long time suddenly burst out.

"Hello? Xixi, why aren't you talking?"

Seeing that Lin Xi didn't respond for a long time, He Yanyang couldn't help but have a hint of doubt in his voice.

Longing spread to every part of his body like a tide, but Lin Xi's throat rolled for a long time, and he just said something in a faint tone to the person on the other end of the phone.

"He Yanyang, the clouds are starting to rain."

"Xixi, are you unhappy? Who bullied you?"

Although she tried her best to hold back her tears, He Yanyang could instantly tell from her trembling tone that something was wrong with her mood.

"No, it's just..." Lin Xi sniffed, her voice so low that it sounded like a sigh.

"What's wrong?" Hearing her say that everything was fine, He Yanyang on the other end of the phone was obviously relieved and made his voice softer.

"That's right, I miss you." Lin Xi lowered her eyelids and tightened the pajamas in her arms.

"I miss you too, I miss you so much, I can't wait to go back to you." He Yanyang couldn't help but sound a little melancholy when he heard this.

"You don't know, I've been missing you so much these past two days..." As if he was afraid that saying this would make Lin Xi worry, he quickly changed the subject.

"But I'll be back in two days, don't be sad.

"I heard there's a kind of candy here that's really delicious. I'll bring you some more when the time comes."

……

Lin Xi listened quietly to He Yanyang chattering on the other end of the phone, clumsily saying words of comfort to her, and remained silent for a long time.

"Aren't you usually training at this time? How can you answer the phone?" After a moment, feeling that her emotions had stabilized a little, she asked.

"Ah? Ah, today the coach was so kind and gave out cell phones in advance. I was just about to call you." He Yanyang's voice paused a little unnaturally, and then quickly returned to normal.

Lin Xi didn't notice this detail. She hummed softly, sniffed and said, "Then let's video chat. I want to see you."

"This may not be convenient right now. The coach is going to hold a small meeting for us soon." Unexpectedly, He Yanyang, who has always been keen on this, refused hesitantly.

Lin Xi had some doubts in her heart, but she quickly dispelled them. She softened her tone and lowered her voice a little pitifully, "Just one look, I'll hang up after just one look at you."

"Uh..." He Yanyang seemed to be hesitant, but finally refused, "Sorry Xixi, it's really not convenient."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of noise from the other end of the phone, and He Yanyang's somewhat flustered voice sounded on the phone, "Xixi, let's not talk anymore, the coach is here, I'll hang up first, you wait for me to come back--"

beep……

The words she wanted to express her longing for him were on the tip of her tongue, but she was interrupted. Lin Xi looked at the phone interface that had ended the call, blinked, and was a little unresponsive.

After a moment, she sighed, put down her phone, hugged the clothes in her arms, curled up, and let the longing in her heart grow wildly.

I don’t know how long it had been, but I saw the rain outside the window getting heavier, the sky gradually darkening, and lightning flashing from time to time.

After curling up for a long time, Lin Xi's body was so stiff that it seemed as if it was not her own. She finally endured the needle-like pain in the soles of her feet, dragged her numb legs, and prepared to go to the kitchen to pour herself a glass of water.

But she had only taken two steps, holding on to the table, when she suddenly heard a hurried knock on the door.

Lin Xi subconsciously glanced out the window at the heavy rain that was gradually pouring down, and couldn't help but frown.

Who would knock on the door in such heavy rain? She didn't order takeout, could it be a delivery?

"Who is it?" Lin Xi asked as she moved towards the door with difficulty.

But the person outside just knocked on the door and didn't answer. Lin Xi couldn't help but feel a little alert. The security of the community where she rented was good. There was access control in and out of the community, and face recognition was required to enter the building. Lin Xi was not too worried about safety issues.

But on a rainy night like this, it was dark, and she was a girl alone at home, so she naturally had to be cautious.

When Lin Xi walked to the door, she picked up the tennis racket on the shoe cabinet, put her ear against the door, and asked again, "Who is it?"

I thought I wouldn't get an answer this time, but between the rumbling thunder, a familiar voice came through the door.

"Xixi, it's me!"

The racket in his hand suddenly fell to the ground, making a crisp sound on the floor. Lin Xi's eyes were hot and he opened the door in a panic. As expected, he saw a tall figure standing at the door.

Half of He Yan's body was soaked by the rain, his hair stuck to his forehead, and he was holding a package in his hand that was also half wet. He looked extremely disheveled.

He looked down at the petite figure standing at the door with red eyes and a look of disbelief, revealing a mouthful of dazzlingly white teeth, and opened his arms towards Lin Xi, speaking in an excited tone.

"Xixi, I'm back!"
