"Kaiqi," Xiaojie looked at Qiqi and asked, "You've been doing very well with your senior sister lately?"

"What do you mean?" Qi looked at Xiaojie, not understanding the situation yet.

"You, why do you seem to have dinner with your senior sister every day?" Xiaojie honestly expressed her doubts.

It turned out to be this, and Qi understood.

"Why? Did everyone say anything else?" Qi asked disapprovingly.

"Actually, it's about the same...it's like...you are together, or you are actually a couple, or something..." Xiaojie stammered.

"Oh, I thought there would be something new," Kei said, deliberately disappointed.

"What new trick do you want?" Chang Xiaojie asked.

"I don't know, let's see if there will be something more exciting." After finishing speaking, Qi glanced at Xiaojie, and then continued to work.

"Hey, how many times has Dr. Zhao come to see you..." Xiaojie said behind Qi.

"What?! Why did he come to me?" Qi stared at Xiaojie with wide eyes.

"I want to ask you out for dinner, I guess." Xiaojie shrugged.

"It's a good thing I'm not here... I won't be here in the future. If he comes again, please tell him that I have been booked during all my rest time." Qi looked at Xiaojie and said seriously.

"Oh... well, I see." Xiaojie nodded.

"But don't tell him that I'm dating a senior." Qi added.

"Oh, okay, I...understood." Xiaojie nodded again.

"Then, I'll get off work first, break!" Qi finished, packed his things and left the office.

When she got to the parking lot, Xi was already waiting for her in the car.

The two had dinner together as usual, and then went home to continue working.

Oh my god, it was really expected by Xi, Zhao Lingcheng appeared again... As soon as Qi opened the report file, he thought of what Xiaojie told her before leaving get off work.

Xi will be angry if she knows... It's better not to let her know.Qi looked at Xi and made this decision without authorization.

"Little cat, you're thinking wildly again." Xi frowned and said angrily.

"I'm thinking about a patient who wants to be discharged next week..." Qi said with a guilty conscience.

"Oh, are you okay?" Xi heard that it was work, and immediately put away the joke and asked seriously.

"The results of the last treatment did not fully meet expectations..." Qi said, and also mentioned some of her treatment methods by the way.That shouldn't count as a lie, right?I also really think about it.

"Sure enough, I don't know a lot of things after the division of subjects." Xi said after listening.

"I don't know a lot about psychiatry, it's normal." Qi said, looking at Xi with innocent eyes.

"Yes." Xi nodded.

Xi's business jet, which seldom rings during off-duty hours, rang, and Xi picked it up unwillingly.

"What's wrong?" Qi asked when Xi hung up the phone.

"The director called and said that tomorrow he will have a video interview with a psychologist who is studying abroad, specializing in children's assessment..." Xi said while plugging the phone back in to charge.

"But you are not on vacation tomorrow?" Qi thought that they would all be on vacation tomorrow.

"Well, so I just said it's fine for them to decide, and I have no objection. I don't want to go to the hospital for such a trivial matter." After Xi finished speaking, she collapsed on the sofa.

"Tired today?" Qi asked distressedly.

"No, I just took a vacation to be lazy." Xi said, blinking.

"But isn't Tongren Hengjian going to cooperate with you in the future? Are you afraid that they will find a difficult guy?" Qi sat in the empty seat next to Xi, and Xi rested her head on Qi's lap.

"I trust the director, he's even worse than me at important moments." After Xi finished speaking, she closed her eyes.

"Then let's rest earlier today?" Qi looked at Xi who was lying on his lap.

"Well, I don't know what kind of person the new psychologist will be..." Xi muttered to himself.

Soon after, Xi fell asleep.Qi stood up slowly and quietly, took the pillow at hand to replace his legs, let Xi's head rest on the pillow, and went back to work in front of the screen.

When Xi opened her eyes again, Qi's back came into view.

A once-familiar feeling crept into her heart, Xi didn't want to think about it, and got up from the sofa.

"I'll take a shower first." Then, he took his clothes and went into the bathroom.

"What are you going to do tomorrow?" Qi asked her when Xi came out of the bathroom wiping her hair.

"What do you want to do?" Xi sat down beside Qi.

"Shall we go for a walk?" Qi looked at Xi.

"Okay, where do you want to go?" Xi didn't object.

"It's all good," Kei said.

"Well, let's talk about it when we wake up. I'll go to sleep first."

Xi lay on the bed, thinking about where to take Qi tomorrow.She knew that Qi didn't want to go anywhere in particular, but simply wanted to be with her; Xi also knew that it was also what she wanted.

When Qi lay on the bed, Xi was already asleep. She kissed Xi's forehead, and Xi leaned towards her naturally.

"Your dependence always doesn't appear until you fall asleep. When will I be 'acknowledged' by you?" Qi murmured as he held Xi into his arms.

"Little cat, wake up, the sun is drying your ass." Qi was awakened by Xi's voice.

"Huh? What time is it?" Qi sat up from the bed sleepily.

"At [-]:[-], get up and have breakfast, and then go out." After Xi finished speaking, she walked out of the room.

After Qi finished washing and washing, he walked to the dining table with a sleepy face and sat down.

"What time do you go to sleep?" Xi handed the toast to Qi.

"Three or four o'clock..." Qi replied, biting the toast.

"Why did you go to bed so late again?" Xi frowned slightly unhappy.

"The report is so late, I don't know." Qi replied innocently.

"Oh, don't break your body." Xi put the juice in front of Qi, she knew that Qi liked orange juice for breakfast.

"Okay, I will pay attention in the future." Qi looked at Xi like a child who did something wrong and said.

"Remember what I said! Eat quickly, and go out after eating." Xi seemed to get a satisfactory answer.

Not long after, the two headed out in lightweight clothing and with their respective cameras.

"Where are you going?" Qi asked after getting into the car.

"Take the kitten to find the kitten," Xi said.

"What?" Qi was at a loss.

"Don't worry, I won't sell you, I don't want to!" Xi teased her mischievously.

Qi blushed with embarrassment when he heard it.

"The kitten is blushing, so cute." Xi continued maliciously.

"Okay, don't tease me anymore." Qi covered his face with his coat.

Then she heard Xi laughing.

When they arrived in Houtong, because it was a weekday, there were only sporadic tourists on the street, and street cats swaggering around to bask in the sun.

"This is really the territory of cats." Qi said, looking at the cat lying on the side of the road, ignoring the pedestrians passing by.

"It's your place." Xi said, and pressed the shutter on Qi who was squatting on the side of the road teasing the cat.

Qi smiled, got up and followed Xi's footsteps, Xi naturally took Qi's hand, and the two walked slowly on the street and watched.Stop to take pictures of every cat that appears in front of you, and observe these furry, extremely charming little animals, living freely in their own space.

Here, every cat is as peaceful as coming home, they are all happy.Just like me by Xi's side.Is the photo of Xi teasing the cat another kind of photo of Xi and me?Qi faced Xi who was squatting on the ground teasing the cat, and kept pressing the shutter.

Kitty, you said that you are very happy to know me, is that true?Looking at the way you play with these cats, I hope that your smile can be preserved forever like a photo.Xi was also at the side, patting Qi who was talking to the cat.

Both of them have photos of each other in their cameras, with their smiling faces and grimaces, it seems that Qi gradually sees what Jun Yoo said, the sunshine of sunshine.

Tired from walking, they came to the small shop in front of the station, ordered some food at random, and continued to explore the other side of the mountain after resting.

This is, date?Seeing your beloved smiling happily in front of your eyes, like a child... Xi, you are really charming, do you know that?There was a happy smile on the corner of Qi's mouth.

"Little cat, why are you smirking?" Xi turned her head and asked.

"I'm wondering if this is..." Qi said halfway before realizing what she was going to say, but she was not sure if Xi could accept it, so she paused.

"Is it something? Dating? Otherwise?" Xi said very logically.

Qi was completely stunned. She didn't expect that it was her who thought too much.

"Fool, let's go." Xi smiled and stretched out his hand to Qi, who held it without hesitation.

Can this feeling not be lost?Could it be that after I said that, the countdown also started?Xi was always worried, and she could only hold Qi's hand tightly when she could.

This once prosperous town due to the mining industry, the remains of the mine, and the rusty wreckage silently witness the past. In the distant past, no one thought about it. Because of a group of four-legged fur kids, it will be full of popularity again, and come alive in another form.

The two played until the sun was about to set, and then they left with the setting sun.

"Are you happy?" After getting into the car, Xi asked while backing up the car.

"Of course I'm happy! Where's Xi?" Qi always smiled.

"It's the same as you! What do you want to eat tonight?" The smile on Xi's face was also full of happiness.

"Spicy pot." Qi answered this question very "rarely" decisively.

"Okay, Mala Pot." Xi drove to the dinner destination.

When the car was parked, Xi's business jet showed a new mail, of course, it was also a business mailbox.

After clicking on it, it was an email from the director, telling Xi that the new psychologist would come back to work from abroad in two weeks.

"What's wrong?" Qi asked beside him.

"In two weeks, a new therapist will come to work." Xi replied, throwing the phone back into the bag.

"Well, I hope he can 'really' help you." Qi said, she remembered that Xi had complained to the previous therapist a few times.

"It shouldn't be a problem, this time it's the director's personal interview. We're done eating, so let's not talk about it." Xi finished the "official business".

Returning home after dinner, Xi turned on the computer and prepared to finish the unfinished work yesterday because she went to bed early.Qi was lying flat on the bed before ten o'clock because of staying up late yesterday and the whole day's schedule.

Xi worked hard to finish the work before twelve o'clock, she didn't like staying up late.

When Xi took a shower, dried her hair and came back to the room, Qi was already sound asleep.She would always considerately leave a bedside lamp for Xi.

Sitting on the bed, Xi looked at Qi carefully. Under the dim light, Qi's sleeping face, steady breathing, and slightly parted lips became a kind of drunken temptation. Xi looked all the way down, thin shoulder straps The cutie's neckline was opened because of Qi's sideways posture, Qi's profound career line was clearly presented in front of Xi's eyes, and there was a sudden burst of irritability, which was desire.

Xi leaned down and gently held Qi's lips. Qi woke up in Xi's kiss. Facing Shang Xi's eyes stained by desire, she smiled lightly and greeted Shang Xi without hesitation. She loved such Xi so much.

Tacit understanding is the yeast that makes desire ferment the fastest. It quickly removes all the clothes that block each other, eagerly explores, possesses, yells, and moves emotionally. Layers upon layers interweave a seductive net, and they embrace each other tightly. , Meet the peak of lust.

Rationality returned in panting and sweating, Qi leaned on Xi's chest, raised her head and kissed Xi's chin.

"What's wrong?" Xi bowed her head with a smile.

"No," Qi shook his head, "I just wanted to kiss you."

Xi smiled, and pulled up the quilt to cover each other, "Little cat, go to sleep."

Qi nodded, closed his eyes, and fell asleep in Xi's breath.

Xi's fingers slid across Qi's body, and she liked the feeling of hugging Qi.She remembered that when she discovered that she had desires for girls' bodies in high school, she was crazily obsessed with the softness of girls' bodies and the unique breath of each of them.

She used to clearly remember every person she had dated, physical characteristics, birthmarks, scars, and moles; she could even recall the smell of each of their usual perfumes, as well as the most authentic fragrance with all hair makeup removed.Until...Xiao Rong appeared.

What Xiao Rong brought to her was not just the stimulation of the senses, perhaps, it was because of those deep, real, and unreserved emotions that imprinted other tangible things, such as face, body, and intimacy, in her life, and they would also be imprinted in her life. Those once, covered to no trace.Xiaorong's body, touch, and kiss were still clearly remembered in the years after the breakup.Until Qi appeared.

Qi is like a kitten, falling into her world, but boldly teasing her in a way that even Xiaorong has never used before.Yes, teasing.Their relationship begins with a kiss, and after that it's sex like firewood.

Xi originally thought that after Xiaorong, she would resist other people's touch, but whether it was because she was lonely for too long, or because that person was Qi, she accepted it without the slightest resistance.Until Qi went abroad; until now.

Probably, find something similar to my own in you.But I, in the process of constantly resisting your feelings, gradually began to rely on you.Kitten, what should you tell me?I want to keep you by my side selfishly, but... I can't make any promises to anyone anymore.Kitten, what should I do?Xi's fingers slid across Qi's shoulders and cheeks, and gently stroked Qi's lips. Finally, she lowered her head and kissed Qi's lips before closing her eyes and falling asleep.

The two people's "getting along" in the hospital is still the same. They go to the hospital together in the morning, start their respective jobs, have lunch together when they have time at noon, and then continue to work in the afternoon. When it's time to get off work, they clock in on time, meet in the car, and eat together , go home, continue to work.

Regular life, "That's it." Xi always said that.

And Qi also likes this kind of day, the day when she and Xi are getting closer.

She knows that Xi is gradually changing. Although Xi has never expressed her emotions frankly and directly, Xi's actions and behaviors are less and less concealing her possessive desire for Qi.

She noticed that Xi didn't like her thinking about other things when the two of them were alone, and she didn't like talking about business or other people's affairs during dinner.

During those times that Xi considers to be "theirs", she can feel Xi's eyes and heart, all the attention and focus are on her, and she enjoys Xi's "possession", although even if she is distracted, Xi never protested or was unhappy, but she noticed that when Xi supported her chin with her left hand, bit her little finger secretly, and looked away from her, it was Xi's "silent protest".

Xi even looked dissatisfied, so charming.Qi would always look at Xi like that and giggle.

If she was really picky, it would be that Xiaojie would often tell her about Zhao Lingcheng coming to her again.

She never told Xi about this matter.She didn't want unimportant things to disturb their lives.

Qi also began to drive Xi's car when Xi was on duty, and went to visit the shift in the middle of the night with a snack for a short date.

Their relationship seems to have become "real but not named" lovers.

Qi has always been a little uneasy, but it always dissipates when she sees Xi's exclusive expression and the strong possessiveness in her eyes from time to time.

That is my Xi, the Xi that only I can see.Qi never thought that he could have so much happiness from Xi.

But this kind of happiness makes Xi feel scared, and it also reminds her of the nightmare where the world was destroyed instantly without warning in peace.So she is always cautious, trying to keep herself "reasonable", so that she can immediately notice any subtle changes, and then protect herself from getting hurt again.

But she didn't know that the more she did this, the more possessive her eyes became.

Maybe it was too strong depression, which made Xi start to have nightmares.

"Xi, Xi, you're having a nightmare again." Qi shook Xi awake.

"Huh?" Xi opened her eyes and found herself covered in cold sweat.

"Are you okay?" Qi asked worriedly.

"Yeah." Xi nodded.

"What dream did you have?" Qi asked concerned.

"I can't remember, I just feel terrible." Xi said, got up from the bed, walked out of the room and poured a glass of water.

"Change out your clothes, so you don't catch a cold." Qi opened the closet and brought out a set of clothes for Xi.

"Little cat, thank you." Xi took it and leaned into Qi's arms.

"Change your clothes first, why do you often have nightmares these days?" Qi said, watching Xi change into clean clothes.

"It's too much pressure..." Xi said, but she didn't really know.

"A new therapist will come next week, will it be better?" They lay back on the bed together.

"It should be, there is one less person, and the existing psychologists are too busy..." Xi adjusted a comfortable posture in Qi's arms.

"Thank you for your hard work. Go to sleep." Qi kissed Xi's forehead.

"Kitten..." Xi looked up at Qi, hesitating to speak.

"Huh? What's the matter?" Qi asked softly.

"Will you...will accompany me?" Xi asked in a low voice, but Qi heard every word clearly.

"Yes, I will, always will." Qi replied without hesitation. This was the first time she felt that Xi was asking for help.

"Thank you." A reassuring smile appeared on Xi's face, and she fell asleep peacefully in Qi's arms.

Xi, I absolutely, will not leave you alone.

"Sister, the psychologist is finally coming next Monday..." Emily walked into the office with the report and lay down on the table.

"Did you get so exaggeratedly tired?" Xi asked, looking at Emily lying on the table.

"Yes... There are not enough psychologists. Some reports are written by interns, so I can't read them at all..." Emily said while handing a report to Xi.

Xi picked it up, looked at it for a few seconds, and then frowned.

"Didn't the psychologist see it first?" Xi asked displeased.

"Too many patients, no time..." Emily said.

"Then, we can only hope that the one coming next week will do well." Xi returned the report to Emily.

"Finally, we can go on vacation after another week." Emily looked at the clock on the wall, and she still had fifteen minutes to get off work.

"Yeah, thank you for your hard work." Xi returned her attention to the screen.

"Sister, can I ask you a question?" Emily said.

"Ask." Xi knew that when Emily said this, the question was probably related to Qi.

"Hmm... It seems a bit strange to ask, but, have you ever visited the grave with Qi?" Emily asked, this is indeed a very strange question.

"Why do you ask so suddenly?" Xi raised her head, looking at Emily in confusion.

"No, it's just... well, Qi kept telling me not to tell you, she said it's a trivial matter, don't bother you... But I think it's better to let you know..." Emily said hesitantly.

"What's the matter?" Xi raised an eyebrow.

"Oh, okay, never mind, I'm going to say..." Emily took a deep breath, "Qi asked me to accompany her to visit the grave a few days ago, but I didn't have time, so I asked her why she didn't come to you, She said she didn't want to bother you..."

"Tomb-sweeping? Why didn't she mention it?" After Emily said this, Xi realized that she had known Qi for so long, but had never heard Qi talk about it, and even Qi even accompanied her back to the UK, and saw it. "Family Cemetery".And she never thought of asking Qi about it.

Xia Yuxi, you are really bad.Xi couldn't help blaming herself for being slow in her heart.

"She always takes advantage of her vacation and you go to work. If I have a vacation, sometimes I go with her... She thinks you don't want to go with her. I asked her if she asked you, and she said she didn't want to Ask, and ask me not to tell you." After Emily finished speaking, she felt a little guilty.

"Then, why did you tell me?" Xi asked Emily with a smile.

"Because I think she will be very happy if you are willing to accompany her." Emily looked at Xi with a positive expression.

"Well, I see, thank you for telling me, I will ask her." Xi nodded.

"That's good, sister, it's time to get off work." After Emily finished speaking, she pointed to the clock on the wall.

"Then pack your things and go home." Xi stood up, turned off the computer, and left the office with Emily.

Not long after, Qi got into the car.

"Little cat, let's go to the grave tomorrow." Xi watched Qi close the car door.

Qi's movements stopped, and he looked at Xi in surprise.

"Is it Emily who told you?" Qi came back to his senses and pulled up the seat belt buckle.

Xi nodded.

"This big mouth..." Qi complained.

"Why, didn't you mention this to me?" Xi asked.

"I don't want to bother you with such a trivial matter..." Qi said.

"Little cat, you have traveled all the way to England with me, why do you think this kind of thing is 'troublesome' for me?" Xi asked puzzled.

"I am willing to accompany you back to England. I don't want to force you or make you feel embarrassed." Qi honestly expressed his thoughts.

"Why do you have such an idea?" Xi was still puzzled.

"Because in England you said you hated sweeping graves." Qi remembered how uncomfortable Xi was when she was in England.

"That's different. And you didn't ask me before we went to England." Xi said, with a bit of complaint.

"Before that, we never talked about each other's families at all, except..." Qi remembered the night when she was slapped and Xi took her home to take her home.

Chang Xi was silent.

"Xi, even now, I still don't know what your feelings and views on "family" are. ...For me, grave-sweeping is really not a big deal, just like visiting my parents occasionally when I go home and reporting my recent situation to them, it is a very easy and normal thing.” Qi said.

"So, you don't want to take me to see your parents?" When the red light came on, Xi turned to look at Qi and asked.

"Why wouldn't I want to?" Qi quickly responded.

"Then why didn't you ask me?" Xi asked again.

"I..." Qi didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Little cat, I brought you back to England, why don't you understand?" Xi Yu asked earnestly.

Qi stared blankly at Xi, thinking about the meaning of Xi's words in his mind.

Not long after, Xi parked the car.

"Fool, I already let my family know you, so why don't you want to know your family?" Xi looked seriously into Qi's eyes.

Qi was surprised that Xi cared so much about herself, far more than she thought.

"Thank you." In the end, that was all she could say to Xi.

"Then tomorrow's itinerary is grave sweeping." Xi said with a smile, pecking Qi's lips.

When the two got out of the car, they both had warm smiles, they were family members.

The two went out early the next morning.

"My parents don't like the smell of incense, so I always buy flowers." Before going up the mountain, Qi went to a flower shop to buy a bunch of flowers.

Xi carefully observed Qi's expression.

She has always resisted the matter of "grave sweeping".Although I know it is necessary, I just can't "take the initiative".But Qi beside him had a relaxed expression on his face, even with a smile on his face.

"Little cat, are you happy sweeping the grave?" Finally, Xi couldn't help asking.

Qi froze for a few seconds, then nodded.

Xi still didn't understand, but she decided not to ask any more questions.

"Pull over here," Kei said.

Xi pulled over and parked the car, and the two got out of the car. Qi led Xi through the cemetery, and then stopped in front of one of the tombstones.

"It's here." Qi said with a smile.

Xi doesn't understand why Qi can be so...happy in such a place?

"Before I met Xi, this was the place where I escaped from reality and relaxed every time I was in a bad mood." Qi said as if seeing Xi's doubts.

Xi listened quietly.

"For an orphan, this place feels like home..." Qi stretched out his hand, gently touching the words on the tombstone.

Xi hugged Qi's waist.

"I once saw a sentence in a book: Heidegger held that the origin of the whole set of existentialist questions comes from the "thrownness" of life. We are all "thrown" by unforeseen and uncontrollable forces. In a specific time and space...and the "hometown" is a stake that people nail to themselves, a place that will never change in this sea of ​​mortals where the terrain changes instantaneously." When Qi said this, His eyes softened.

Xi leaned lightly on Qi, waiting for her to continue.

"For me, this is the origin of my life." After Qi finished speaking, he looked at Xi.No, maybe Xi is the one.

"You've worked hard all these years." Xi said, kissing Qi's cheek in distress.In fact, I want to give you a home, but I can't promise anything...

"Here, my heart can always be very peaceful." Qi said with his eyes closed.

Xi looked at Qi with a complicated look.

The meaning of "family" to the two of them is so completely different.

She couldn't help thinking, is it because she was so happy since she was a child and has always been the one who is loved a lot, so she doesn't understand the preciousness of family members?Is it because you have too much, so you don't know how to be satisfied?

"Also, when I'm with Xi, I'm very peaceful." When Qi opened her eyes, she looked at Xi and said this.

"Me too." Xi looked at Qi with serious eyes at this moment.

"Dad, Mom, I am very happy and happy now, thank you for letting me come to this world, and thank you for always guarding me." Before leaving, Qi said to them.

Thank you for teaching Qi so well, and I am extremely lucky to have her by my side.Xi said in her heart, took Qi's hand and held it even tighter.

"Thank you for coming with me. It makes me feel that there is a gap in my heart that has been filled." Before Xi released the handbrake and was about to drive, Qi said while holding Xi's hand.

Xi held Qi's hand even tighter, and the confusion and uncertainty in her heart gradually gained a clear direction.
