Shallots

Lin Shixin and Qi Feiran had a rare and truly sweet time, but the prerequisite was that Lin Shixin's cell phone was returned to him, and he could go downstairs for a stroll in his slippers.When Qi Feiran came to pick him up with big bags and small bags of gifts, Lin Shixin was sitting at the gate of the community chatting with the security guard.

"Did you find anything? Is there a problem in this community?" Qi Feiran got out of the car, walked to Lin Shixin and asked in a low voice.

"...Don't be so nervous, okay? I just came out to get some air, and I saw the security guard talking about the weather." Lin Shixin stretched himself. Although he works at home, his workload is really heavy.

The two walked upstairs, and when the car passed by, Lin Shixin glanced at the back seat: "My God, xx kidney treasure and melatonin are available, hahahaha why don't you buy two boxes of Chinese soft-shelled turtle essence? "

"What is that? Is it a very good thing? I'll buy it later." Qi Feiran said.

Lin Shixin looked at him speechlessly for a while, then lowered his head and laughed wildly.

The two of them are fully dressed and ready to go. Today, they are going to the home of Lin Shixin's mother Lin Yue'e after her remarriage. Lin Shixin is going to come out to her mother + introduce her boyfriend.

"Should I have my hair cut?" Qi Feiran looked in the mirror, a little uneasy, "My current hairstyle is too arrogant, He Ming didn't come with me, he cut my hair before."

Lin Shixin: "...I'm really sore He Ming, he takes care of you too much, even cut your hair, why don't you let me cut it? I can cut it too!"

After 15 minutes, the two went downstairs.

Qi Feiran touched the back of his head: "Should I buy a hat?"

"To shut up."

On the way, Lin Shixin gave Qi Feiran a summary of the previous situation: "I don't know how she will react, but I have laid the groundwork before, so it should be fine."

"What foreshadowing?"

"My mother asked me to find a partner quickly, saying that no matter what type, tall, short, fat, thin or foreign girl, she would accept it, and then I answered, what about the man? She froze for a moment, and said it was fine."

"Oh, maybe you were joking? She might not take it seriously." Qi Feiran said.

Lin Shixin was silent for a while, and said: "She knew I wouldn't make such a joke, because... my father just found a lover of the same sex and eloped. My mother didn't know who he was before she married him."

Qi Feiran was surprised when he heard that the experience of their mothers was the same.

After being silent for a while, Lin Shixin looked at Qi Feiran's expression and knew what he was thinking, and said, "But the Uncle Li she remarried is very nice and humorous. My mother has lived a very comfortable life these past few years, so she If you know I am, the reaction will not be too violent."

"If it doesn't work, I'll just kneel. If she hits you, just lie and say that I seduced you, and you were forced." Qi Feiran said.

Lin Shixin chuckled: "You seduced me. If you want to kneel, I kneel. You just don't need to talk. And that Uncle Li, he's a bit of a talker, and he likes to speak Chinese the most. , Forced to speak Wenjiezi, you just have to deal with it with a few hahas."

Li Guangzhen, the object of Lin Yuee's remarriage, used to be an employee of a power plant. She lived in the family building of the original power plant. The building was more than 20 years old and was squat. The building used to have a white exterior wall. The cement looks like a dangerous building from a distance.Lin Shixin sent money to Lin Yuee all these years, and wanted to buy them a house. Li Guangzhen firmly disagreed, saying that he had feelings for this building, and asked Lin Yuee to save the money Lin Shixin sent to marry a wife in the future.

Unexpectedly, he was going to bring a male daughter-in-law home.

There is no elevator in this building, and they live on the top floor of the 6th floor. Qi Feiran was walking up the narrow stairs with health care products in red festive packages. Lin Shixin looked back at him and couldn't help but want to laugh.

"Are you nervous? Do you remember your name?" Lin Shixin asked.

"I'm not nervous." Qi Feiran said.

"Don't be afraid, the ugly daughter-in-law will see her in-laws sooner or later." Lin Shixin patted his head.

At the door, Lin Shixin took a deep breath and knocked on the door.The door opened, the hot air from the room rushed out, and the sound of the news broadcast on the TV in the living room, Lin Yuee showed her head and said with a smile: "My son is back!"

Lin Shixin said yes, and Lin Yuee quickly ran to get two pairs of slippers. Lin Shixin pulled the slippers and walked to the living room. Uncle Li also greeted him at the door. Lin Shixin shook hands with Uncle Li: "Li Hello uncle."

"Hello, hello." Uncle Li agreed.

Then Lin Shixin heard a bang behind him, he hurriedly turned his head to see that Qi Feiran's head hit the door beam.

"This door beam is short, haha! Xiao Qi, have you grown taller again?!" Lin Yuee smiled and took the things in his hands, put them on the floor of the next bedroom, and ran out quickly, looking Look at Feiren's forehead.

Lin Shixin and Qi Feiran looked at each other, both of them could not laugh or laugh, Qi Feiran touched his head, not knowing what to say, he was indeed nervous, but what was even more surprising was that Lin Yuee was not surprised to see him at all.

The two sat on the sofa, not knowing where to start.There are two cups of green tea on the coffee table, and white smoke rises, and there is a fruit plate next to it, with lemon wedges in the row.

Lin Yuee: "Eat, Xiao Qi, eat some fruit."

Qi Feiran resolutely picked up a piece of lemon and ate it in his mouth, his face was so sour that his facial expression was distorted. Lin Shixin had known him for so many years, but he had never seen such a rich expression.

Lin Shixin: "...Brother, here are strawberries, grapes and oranges and apples, what's your fuss with lemons?"

Qi Feiran couldn't say anything, he thought the lemon was Lin Yuee's test for him.

"Hahahaha, it's just our mothers who like to eat lemons like this, you can eat something else." Lin Yuee laughed.

Lin Shixin picked up the teacup and took a sip, pursed his lips, and put the cup on the table: "Mom, I want to tell you something, Uncle Li is not an outsider, let's listen together." , he, he is me...then who."

Qi Feiran saw that he was speechless, and continued: "Friend."

Lin Shixin: "My love."

Lin Yuee smiled. Although she is over 45 years old, she is well maintained. She looks a little fatter than in earlier years, and because she has a baby face, she smiles very sweetly, with a girlish feeling. Lin Shixin's The appearance is completely inherited from her.

"I know, silly boy, do you think I don't know?" Lin Yuee said.

"Ah? You know?" Lin Shixin's eyes widened. "Did I talk in my sleep? No way!"

"Your wine taste is too bad. After graduating from high school and going to college, you learned to drink. Every New Year's Eve night, if you drank too much, you would sit on the ground and cry, looking for him and calling his name. Shouting brilliantly, always attacking or something..."

"Ahhh, stop talking!" Lin Shixin's face turned red instantly, "I'm dizzy! Fan Xing also said that my wine quality is bad, so he knows it too? Oh my god! I thought I drank too much Just undress and go to bed."

Qi Feiran looked at him with a smile: "So you came to me when you were drunk?"

Lin Shixin pushed him aside and sat far away from him all the time. He was very afraid that Qi Feiran would get used to it, slap him on the shoulder, hug him, or suddenly forcefully slap him on his leg. Pat, let yourself sit on it, when they went out to eat together, Qi Feiran would often do this when he was happy, scaring the waiter's eyeballs out.

The four of them chatted awkwardly for a while, Lin Shixin helped Lin Yuee go to the kitchen to cook, leaving Qi Feiran and Uncle Li to sit in the living room and continue to have nothing to say.

Uncle Li adjusted his glasses and said, "Your name is very good. 'Fei'an', 'Fei' means 'bandit', and 'ran' means 'appearance'. When you combine your names, it means 'bandit'." Look', um, matches your looks and temperament."

It was the first time Qi Feiran heard someone explain his name like this, and he was in awe for a moment: "Ah, I only knew that Feiran meant that he had a good literary talent, but I didn't expect that there was also a description of appearance."

After Lin Shixin heard these fallacies and Qi Feiran's flattery, he couldn't hold the rice spoon and fell into the pool.

"This name is very meaningful. Take it apart and look at it together, it has a deep meaning. It shows that your parents love you as a child very much and want you to grow strong and talented." Uncle Li took a sip of tea. , said the closing statement.

Qi Feiran agreed deeply, and nodded: "Then how do you say 'Lin Shixin'?"

"When I met Xinxin for the first time, I said he would do news shows. I didn't know him well at the time. His mother told me that she thought I knew about it in advance and deliberately lied to her. I didn't mean to lie. Human, look at his name, 'Shi' means time, to race against time, 'new' means something that has just appeared and compared with 'old', his name is something that he wants to appear from time to time Well, it must be news, and you can't live without news!" Uncle Li said eloquently.

Qi Feiran let out a long sigh: "So that's it, alas, if he changes his name, will he be out of the news?"

"No, no, no, if you leave the news, it will become old news. If you leave the fixed track, that person will lose his spirit." Uncle Li shook his head vigorously.

Lin Shixin was listening to the conversation between the chicken and the duck in the kitchen, laughing so hard that he couldn't pick out the shrimp threads in his hands.

"You, Uncle Li, are educated and can chat well with anyone." Lin Yuee glanced affectionately at Uncle Li in the living room, and then at her son's smiling face, "He's back, are you Not very happy?"

"Well," Lin Shixin agreed, he had never shared his feelings with his mother, and his face was a little hot for a while, but he just said with emotion, "Mom, it's great that you can accept it, thank you."

"What's unacceptable, I'll be happy with you if you're happy, I believe in your vision," Lin Yuee poured oil, sautéed shallots, ginger and garlic, poured in shredded beef and fried them until cooked, then poured in celery, and held the iron in her right hand. The shovel was stirring, and she looked at Lin Shixin's hand that was removing the shrimp thread: "Will the ring get dirty? I'll do it later, you can do something else."

"Ah?" Lin Shixin looked at the ring finger of his left hand, feeling even more embarrassed, "Just wash your hands in a while."

"You have it, but he doesn't," Lin Yuee gossiped, "Why is that? Is there not enough money?"

Lin Shixin kept laughing, and agreed, "Ah, yes, it's only enough for me alone."

"I see that most of the things that Xiao Qi bought are for nourishing the kidneys. Does he want me to give you a younger brother or younger sister?" Lin Yuee joked.

Lin Shixin laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten up: "I want a younger sister."

By the time the dishes were put on the table one by one, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.

Seeing Lin Yuee coming, Uncle Li started flattering: "'Yue'e' means Yueyue gave me a lot of pocket money, hehe."

Lin Yuee shot him an angry look, and Qi Feiran said: "We pay attention to perfection here, so we cooked ten dishes, all of which are home-cooked dishes. Don't dislike them. You often ate my dishes when you were young. Come on, sit down and eat quickly." , Do you drink? There are white beers."

Qi Feiran stood up and took the wine she handed over, and thanked Auntie.

"Changing your mouth once you're all wearing rings." Lin Yuee said with a smile.

"Thank you...Mom." Qi Feiran said.

After more than 20 years, Qi Feiran never expected that he would have a mother again.

When walking home after dinner, Lin Shixin didn't drink, he was driving the car.Although the two did not speak, they were both beaming. Sure enough, after the parents agreed, they became at ease, and Lin Shixin felt that his heart was brightened.

"Your personality is like your mother, you are very tolerant and cute." Qi Feiran said.

"Just say you're stupid, and you're still turning a corner." Lin Shixin clicked his tongue.

"Your stepfather is also very talented, gentle, and what he says makes sense." Qi Feiran commented.

Lin Shixin: "Do you know why he is called Li Guangzhen? 'Guang' means 'many', and 'Zhen' means resonance, which means that many people can resonate with what he said."

Qi Feiran nodded: "Forgive me for that."

Lin Shixin glanced at him, shook his head helplessly and smiled, he was in vain of being a well-educated and talented man, who can be called a well-known talent all over the country, to find such a bandit who couldn't even understand his good words.

The manga exhibition that was originally scheduled to be held in Sakura City in December was postponed to the end of March because I wanted to invite more well-known cvs, singers, and dancers to add to the fun.Lin Shixin and Qi Feiran made an agreement that after participating in the comic exhibition, the two of them would go home and return to Beijing to start a year's work.

On this day, Lin Shixin wore a light blue suit with a white shirt and tie, and his hair was deliberately messed up. He looked in the mirror and smiled, very satisfied with his look.His lips are red and his teeth are white, his eyes are clear and bright, and he smiles a little childishly, vaguely looking like a teenager.Qi Feiran turned to look at him, lowered his head and kissed him hard, and asked, "What is this for?"

"Hiss, don't pull my clothes, I'm a cosplayer today." Lin Shixin pulled his hand down hard.

"This is a normal outfit for you. I saw photos from previous comic exhibitions, and they all liked those weird ones." Qi Feiran said.

"Because I'm pretending to be a normal person, a 17-year-old boy." Lin Shixin tugged on his tie.

"A teenager who will become a primary school student is not normal at all." Qi Feiran laughed.

Lin Shixin was surprised: "You actually know who I'm pretending to be?"

"What's so strange about this? I've read a few books, and I just think he's too proud, and I want to beat him up when I see him."

Lin Shixin couldn't stop laughing.

"Who should I pretend to be?" Qi Feiran looked through his closet, his clothes were either black or gray.

Lin Shixin took out a black coat and handed it to him, and said with a smile, "You should wear this."

Arrived there at [-] o'clock in the morning, the comic exhibition was already crowded with people, Qi Feiran was stunned by the strange coser, or the old Montenegro demon with breasts and bare breasts, or the coquettish cosplayer with a sickle on his head and snake-like movement. Beauties, or old-fashioned boys with a charming smile, or violent boys with yellow-haired cat faces.

When Lin Shixin saw something he liked, he would stop and look at it, and he would explain to Qi Feiran which anime or video game the other party was from, and some cosplayers saw him asking for a group photo, Lin Shixin smiled and agreed. Wechat... Lin Shixin also added it.

"Delete it later." Lin Shixin said to Qi Feiran.

"Tch, I'm not jealous, I'm just wondering why no one is looking for me? Didn't I pretend to be someone too?" Qi Feiran said.

Lin Shixin smiled and didn't speak at the side, walked inside, and finally someone noticed Qi Feiran.

"Damn it, Gin!" said a girl.

"No way, Kudo Shinichi is standing next to him? Is this falling in love and killing each other?" another girl said.

Qi Feiran was finally asked to take a group photo, and for some reason he was sandwiched between the two girls and took several photos.

"It looks more like you with long hair, ah, that's the look in your eyes, so sassy!"

"You are the most conscientious boss in the black organization, you must continue to work hard!" the girls said.

Qi Feiran returned to Lin Shixin expressionless: "So I played that bad guy."

Lin Shixin was overjoyed, put his arms around him, slapped him on the face, and kissed him loudly.

"Fuck me?" Qi Feiran was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, in broad daylight, this is not Lin Shixin's usual cautious style.

The people around were stunned and looked this way, there were more and more people, Lin Shixin grabbed Qi Feiran and ran away quickly.

In the evening, the coser competition started on the stage. Qi Feiran and Lin Shixin sat on chairs. When they saw a beautiful coser, Lin Shixin told him who it was.

"There are so many characters in the game this year. This is Yingcao. Wow, that grass looks very similar. It's so beautiful." Lin Shixin said.

"Dandelion." Qi Feiran looked at a girl in green clothes on the stage, jumping up and down holding a grass.

"Wow, this is Qingming, umm, looks and looks alike, great!" Lin Shixin exclaimed.

Qi Feiran saw a long white man with a dark blue hat, a fan in his hand, and long white hair. He walked onto the stage steadily.

He asked, "Is this from the cartoon?"

Lin Shixin replied: "No, this is a game, I downloaded it too, and I'll show you."

Lin Shixin took out his phone and opened an app, and Qi Feiran said, "If you write on this talisman, they will be summoned."

Qi Feiran looked at it, and carefully wrote the word "Qi Feiran".

A big tengu appeared.

Lin Shixin looked at the phone and smiled, "SSR! Not bad!"

Seeing that Lin Shixin was so happy, Qi Feiran probably summoned a good dog. He glanced at the dog and said, "The one with wings is pretty good."

Lin Shixin saw that he was not satisfied, so he pointed out another spell: "Try again."

Qi Feiran wrote the words "Lin Shixin".

A little beggar named "Hungry Ghost" appeared.

Qi Feiran was so amused by this, Lin Shixin quit the game and put the phone back in his pocket: "Don't play anymore, watch the show!"

After the two batches of cosplayers finished their performances, everyone waited for the next one to come on stage, but there was no movement heard for a long time. Suddenly, the lights on the stage were dimmed, and the whole place was pitch black. A voice came faintly through the microphone:

"There is no wind on all sides, and there is only one person in the middle. Tonight, I will take away the most precious gemstone here."

The atmosphere was terrifying, and the audience in the venue looked around in surprise, but Lin Shixin laughed, and leaned into Qi Feiran's ear and said, "I'm going to meet a friend, I'll be back in a while!"

The smoke bomb exploded from the center of the stage, and the white light blinded the eyes, instantly illuminating the entire venue, and everyone shouted.Qi Feiran grabbed at his side and took a free shot. When the lights on the stage came back on and everyone around became quiet, Qi Feiran realized that Lin Shixin beside him had disappeared.

He looked towards the stage, and there was a white cloak hanging on the red curtain.
