clover

Yan Yunyu saw the man with dry black hair in the bathroom the next day, and almost thought she was a thief.

Although he hadn't slept all night, his eyes were not so dazzled that yellow and black were confused. He stood leaning against the door, his well-shaped long eyebrows slightly frowned, watching the man in the mirror wipe off the drops of water all over his face, Then slowly turned to face him, showing a big smile, "Good morning!"

Xiao Ran is wearing a simple and elegant white shirt and dark casual pants today. The buttons on the shirt are neatly buttoned, and the long trousers are rolled up symmetrically, giving people a clean and fresh feeling .

However, compared to his attire, Yan Yunyu cared more about...his hair.

Seeing him staring at the top of his forehead, Xiao Ran scratched the back of his head unnaturally, "...is it weird?"

Yan Yunyu: "..."

Seeing that Yan Yunyu was silent, Xiao Ran turned around and looked in the mirror, and commented on himself: "How do I feel, it looks good."

Yan Yunyu's temples twitched, and the frequency of their brain waves was not on the same channel at all.

"...Isn't it strange that I was still blonde the night before and turned black the next morning?"

Xiao Ran clapped his hands, "Ah, you mean that wig, I took it off." He looked at himself in the mirror, and then at Yan Yunyu in the mirror, "Aren't I doing as Romans do?"

Yan Yunyu: "..."

While Yan Yunyu was washing up, Xiao Ran was making breakfast in the kitchen.

Even though he didn't sleep all night, he was in good spirits and in a good mood.When choosing a guest room yesterday, he accidentally chose the one closest to Yan Yunyu.

There is only a thick wooden wall between the two rooms.He sat on the bed and listened to an old song with headphones on. The melody and rhythm of that song were very soothing, and it was very comfortable to listen to. Every time he used to listen to it alone, scenes would pass by and fade away. The old days—Grandma Elena in the orphanage told him Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales, found an admission notice with his name written on it when sorting out the public mailbox, and the satisfied smiles of the kindergarten children holding the dolls he designed ... This time, he wanted another person to come and listen.

However, at this point, Yan Yunyu may have fallen asleep, he seems to be a person with a very regular schedule.

With that in mind, he quietly lowered the volume and pulled out the earphones.

Such a volume shouldn't bother him, right?Did he sleep or not?

Xiao Ran got out of bed and walked to the wooden wall where a calligraphy and painting was hung, and carefully put his ears on it.

Hearing the sound of his breathing in deep sleep, Xiao Ran switched to another ear and listened, it was a bit like... the sound of fine footsteps.

Xiao Ran cooked a pot of mung bean porridge and two hard-boiled eggs, and made layer cakes.The mille-feuille cake is particularly troublesome to make, even if Xiao Ran is proficient in the movements, it will take more than ten minutes before and after.

Yan Yunyu sat on the sofa and read the newspaper while paying attention to the noise in the kitchen, "It's almost 10 minutes, if this continues for a while, it will happen to catch up with the morning rush hour traffic jam."

Xiao Ran turned off the ignition, "Last night, I downloaded Baidu Maps and checked the bus routes."

He carefully placed the crumbly puff pastry on the plate, "I'll take the subway later, it won't be blocked."

He also said: "I can't go to work with you, otherwise your employees will see it and think I entered the company through the back door!"

"..." Yan Yunyu stroked her forehead and couldn't help thinking, so, how did Xiao Ran join the company?

"It doesn't matter if you get stuck on the road, anyway, you are the biggest in your company, who dares to say that you are late!" Xiao Ran took out two pairs of chopsticks from the disinfection cabinet.

Yan Yunyu: "..."

Xiao Ran greeted: "Why don't you come over to eat? Aren't you afraid of traffic jams?"

Yan Yunyu felt that to live with Xiao Ran, he had to learn to switch between helplessness and emotion.

It may be that the style of painting is nonsensical one second, but it will become cured in the next second.

For example, when he saw the puff pastry on his table, his heart melted slowly.

Yan Yunyu didn't know how Xiao Ran managed to arrange the sesame seeds on the surface of the layered cake so meticulously into such a cute pattern, like the little arms in the facial expressions.

He seemed reluctant to eat, put down his chopsticks, and picked up an oval egg.

Xiao Ran who was sitting opposite suddenly said: "First roll the eggs on the table a few times, like this," he enthusiastically demonstrated.

Yan Yunyu was not in the mood to look at the spinning egg.

He watched a few strands of hair mischievously hanging down to Xiao Ran's forehead, the tip of the hair was inlaid with a silver border by the morning light, it was a beautiful color, he liked it.

"And then again."

"Click!"

Yan Yunyu seemed to hear the sound of her heart being opened.

"It's much easier to peel off like this!" Xiao Ran said briskly.

"Remember?"

Yan Yunyu's eyes fell on the pattern on the surface of the layer cake again, and said slowly: "Remember."

Always remember, this string of codes——

????????????????????.

In an ancient language, it means: love の breakfast.

In the end, Yan Yunyu took the subway to work with Xiao Ran that day.

Xiao Ran almost got off at the wrong station, Yan Yunyu gave him a hand, and said calmly: "There is one more stop."

Xiao Ran smiled dryly, "It's a good thing you're here." After thinking about it, he added in a casual tone, not so deliberately: "We only have buses over there, and this is the first time I've taken the subway." The implication is that it is understandable that he almost got off the wrong station.

Yan Yunyu changed her hand to grasp the handrail, and said flatly, "What a coincidence, it's also my first time."

Xiao Ran: "..."

The office building of Yan Yunyu's company is located opposite Luluo Park. Under the sun, the plexiglass on the surface of the building reflects the blue sky with long white clouds and the vibrant greenery, which is pleasing to the eye. His office is simple and elegant, but light blue The tone looks a little cold.

As soon as Xiao Ran entered the door, he shook exaggeratedly, attracting Yan Yunyu's incredulous gaze.

Therefore, Designer Yan, who had just turned on the air conditioner, glanced at the remote control that had not been put down in his hand, and thoughtfully adjusted the temperature from 25 degrees Celsius to... Xiao Ran counted and heard five short beeps in total. At a glance, the display shows that, sure enough, the set temperature has become 30 degrees Celsius.

Xiao Ran: "..."

Yan Yunyu sat down on the swivel leather chair behind the desk, and said in a formulaic tone: "Let me introduce myself, I am..."

"I know, Mr. Yan, the general manager and design director of Clover Children's Wear Company."

"..." In view of Xiao Ran's lack of cooperation, Yan Yunyu's original idea of ​​going through a superficial process died down, and she didn't plan to let him report to the HR department, so she took out a business card from the drawer and handed it to him.

Yan Yunyu pretended not to see Xiao Ran's strange expression as he took the business card - "Why did you make such a fuss?" was written bluntly on his delicate face.

"About the company, do you have any questions or doubts..."

Xiao Ran was very motivated this time, and before Yan Yunyu could finish his question, he asked him: "Why is the company called 'Clover' instead of 'Clover' eh..." Finally, looking at Yan Yunyu's slightly stiff face, his tone couldn't help but It doesn't look like a question anymore.

Yan Yunyu felt that Xiao Ran might as well ask him directly, "Hey, buddy, why are you called 'Yan Yunyu' instead of 'Yan Ran'?"

After calming down for a while, he asked Xiao Ran, "Didn't you call Wang Jin 'Little Sheep'? Why is that?"

Xiao Ran took it for granted: "Because he is so white and docile! When he first went abroad to study in graduate school, I was a little too afraid to talk to him."

Yan Yunyu: "Why?"

"Yellow-faced Dian Wei, white-faced Cao Cao, black-faced Zhang Fei, called Chacha..." Xiao Ran sang vividly, and then said: "White face in China symbolizes insidiousness and cunning!"

Yan Yunyu: "... Where did you learn it?"

"Grandma Elena from the orphanage said that I can't forget my roots, so she sang it to me. After singing, she also told me that a red face symbolizes loyalty and chivalry, a black face symbolizes straightforwardness and fortitude, and a white face symbolizes treachery, treachery and self-willedness..."

Yan Yunyu hesitated to speak, and listened to him quietly.Wang Jin had previously told him that Xiao Ran grew up in an orphanage in the United States. When he first met Xiao Ran, he felt that he had grown into a careless and heartless person probably because he lacked love since he was a child. But after getting along for more than a day, he found that this was not the case. Xiao Ran's heart has a very delicate side, very delicate, as thin as the newly grown feathers on a bird in autumn, and it can only be seen with a little concentration in the sun.He became a little puzzled. He couldn't figure out how Xiao Ran could walk out of the orphanage. Now all the problems were solved——Xiao Ran probably didn't know himself. How gentle is the expression on his face, his facial features are born well, neither too feminine nor too sunny, only the corners of his mouth are slightly turned up, as if the bright sunshine has fallen, usually, this is noon The most brilliant sunshine, but at this time, it is the soft and clear morning light.

"Uh, wait, you haven't said why you didn't call it 'Four Leaf Clover'! Don't you think 'Four Leaf Clover' is more childlike?" Xiao Ran realized that he was digressing, and stopped in time.

Yan Yunyu said calmly: "In this world, there are too few four-leaf clover. In short, I have never found one. Four-leaf clover, like a fairy tale, is so beautiful that it hardly exists in real life."

Xiao Ran raised his delicate eyebrows like fine brushwork, and could not agree, "Really? The ending of a fairy tale is not necessarily a happy ending. The little mermaid was not happy with the prince, but turned into a bubble." He suddenly She laughed, her two bright front teeth were as white as the moon on the previous night, "But, she must be happy too."

He blinked, his pure eyes, without any impurities, leaked into Yan Yunyu's eyes, "This story teaches us what love is."

Yan Yunyu's heart skipped a beat, suppressing the inexplicable throbbing, and asked casually: "Then what is love?" He regretted it as soon as he finished asking, but fortunately Xiao Ran was still very nervous in a certain way, so he didn't think about it. The question was strange, but he frowned and pondered seriously.

He considered it carefully: "I just like it very much," and then asked Yan Yunyu: "Do you understand?"

Yan Yunyu: "..." This is really a "figurative" interpretation...

"Let's use an analogy. There's nothing special about it. You just like that person's cooking, hair, and music. Well... what else can you like..." Xiao Ran thought hard , didn't notice the subtle change in Yan Yunyu's face at all, and couldn't think of anything after thinking about it over and over again, and finally said simply: "In short, you like everything about that person."

He patted Yan Yunyu's shoulder in a playful way, "That must be true love." He was just about to punch him in the chest and call out "brother" loyally.

When Yan Yunyu was slapped like this, her heart skipped a beat, and she thought to herself: It's over.

The scene of the day passed quickly.

On the way to get off work, the twilight is close together, and the orange lights are lit up, warming the hurried footsteps of pedestrians. Suddenly, the radio on the roadside telephone pole rang, and the male anchor sang a light melody A little romantic love song——

"He found the four-leaf clover, and he gave me a ten-thousandth fate, what a wonderful heart-shaped smile, gently floating in my palm..."

"Xiao Ran, the direction is wrong, the subway is on the other side." Yan Yunyu stretched out her hand subconsciously, intending to grab his sleeve, but in the end, Xiao Ran shook his arm, and it turned into a somewhat subtle holding hands.

Yan Yunyu: "..."

Xiao Ran didn't pay attention to the intimate gesture of the two of them now, and pouted his mouth to argue: "I know." He pointed to the fruit shop not far away, "The dragon fruit in that shop looks very fresh, so don't go buy something strange." pity."

Yan Yunyu didn't object, and walked over to him holding hands.

It took about a quarter of an hour, Yan Yunyu stood aside with his hands crossed in front of his chest, almost unable to watch anymore, Xiao Ran finally paid the bill and came out of the small shop with a big bag of dragon fruit, he picked the dragon fruit like choosing a wife , don’t want the ones with moth spots, and don’t want the ones with slightly yellowed edges... Yan Yunyu couldn’t help asking: “I’m a little wondering how you did it yesterday.”

"what?"

"Within 10 minutes, I picked three big bags of ingredients."

Xiao Ran thought about it before and after, and understood what he meant, "You didn't set a time limit today."

Yan Yunyu: "..."

Just when Yan Yunyu was helpless, Xiao Ran caught sight of something very interesting to him, "That pot of green radish is so cute!"

Next to the fruit shop is a flower shop, and a row of potted dill plants are neatly placed on the small wooden shelf at the entrance of the shop.Turquoise leaves without any pattern or variegation.In fact, this is just a very common variety - green leaf and green radish, but Xiao Ran seems to have seen some rare and rare grass, and his two moist eyes are bright.

Yan Yunyu asked: "You don't want to buy it again, do you?"

Xiao Ran nodded his head as a matter of course, "It would be a pity not to buy a pot to go back."

Yan Yunyu: "..." According to his logic, why wouldn't it be a pity not to buy some back?

Xiao Ran leaned down and gently stroked the delicate leaf veins, "Your office is too cold, buy a pot of green radish and put it next to the computer, it will not only add a little bit of life, but also absorb radiation."

Where did this come from?Yan Yunyu thought to himself, Xiao Ran suddenly raised his head and looked at him with a smile.

Yan Yunyu didn't know how many beats her heart had missed.He suddenly thought of a short but lovely sentence——

A child's eyesight is straight and does not turn.

Lazy nights in summer are always long overdue. After dinner, outside the glass window, the western sky is still bright——

The sunset glow is like colorful silk, floating in the sky, slanting down the last few rays of light before the night.

Yan Yunyu was sitting on the soft sofa, watching the news while enjoying the dragon fruit that Xiao Ran had cut into various cute animal shapes, while Xiao Ran was sitting on a small round stool with two slender legs curled up like a child Above, holding a small sketchpad in his left hand and a 2B pencil in his right hand.

He lowered his head and smeared it for a while, carefully and seriously, after wrestling with a line for a long time, he suddenly raised his head, and saw a seed on Yan Yunyu's cheek at a glance.He pointed.

Yan Yunyu frowned slightly, and looked at him suspiciously, "What's wrong?"

"Uh...out the window!" Xiao Ran moved his finger slightly, "Airplane!"

Yan Yunyu looked out in the direction of his finger, but she didn't see any planes, but her frown immediately relaxed.

Xiao Ran thought he would ask why he didn't see it, but Yan Yunyu turned her head away like a normal person and continued watching the news broadcast... In short, it was exactly what he wanted.He looked again at the seeds dotted on Yan Yunyu's delicate skin, inadvertently hooked the corners of his mouth, and then drew a black mole on the side of the little raccoon's mouth, which made it look more naive. A very magnetic voice: "I thought you would say that there are monsters outside the window."

Yan Yunyu walked up to him at some point and looked down at him with a teasing smile on the corners of her eyes and brows, "Then said that ordinary people seem to be unable to see those monsters, only those with spiritual power can see them."

Xiao Ran: "!"
