The cake is not big, just right for two boys who are not addicted to sweets.
It was already late, the two finished the cake separately, Qi Chen went to the bathroom to wash up, Xie Lian packed up the trash, waited for the sound of water in the bathroom, picked up the phone and left the bedroom.
Only the night light was left in the corridor, Xie Lianguang stood still on the dim balcony, turned on the screen, and dialed a number from the address book.
The call was connected quickly, Xie Lian's voice was indifferent, and the corners of his eyes and brows were full of coldness, "Help me to find out what Xie Sheng is doing recently."
After hanging up the phone, Xie Lian stood on the balcony for a while longer before turning back.He went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water, adjusted the temperature just right, and turned back to the room.
Qi Chen was coming out of the bathroom, his exposed skin was soaked in pink, and his whole body was steaming, the contrast with Xie Lian was obvious, "Did you go out?"
"I was afraid that you would be thirsty when you came out, so I went to pour a glass of water." Xie Lian handed him the glass in his hand, "Do you want it?"
"want."
After being steamed for 10 minutes, Qi Chen's mouth was really dry, so he took the cup immediately.
Seeing that the water stains on the ends of his hair hadn't completely dried, Xie Lian simply took the towel, brought him to the bedside and sat down, and stood aside by himself, taking over the work of drying his hair.
The hour hand gradually pointed to one point. Qi Chen's nerves were tense all day long, and he had already started to feel sleepy. After half a moment of clarity, I reached out and grabbed him, "Where are you going?"
Xie Lian said patiently: "Turn off the lights."
Qi Chen blinked, said "Oh" slowly, and let go of his fingers, "Then hurry up."
Xie Lian couldn't help laughing, the coldness in his heart due to the phone call just now turned into tenderness, and he couldn't help teasing him when he turned off the light, "You are in such a hurry, it seems like you want to do something with me."
"I can do it, can't you?" Qi Chen felt sleepy, his mouth was faster than his head, and it was only when he said the words that he realized that there was some ambiguity in the words, "Um, I'm not..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xie Lian had already put him under the quilt, and the latter put his arms on his side, looked down at him condescendingly, bent his knees and touched the crook of his leg through the quilt, " no?"
This posture is actually very oppressive, and Qi Chen's aggressiveness began to stir again, "Didn't you say that?"
Under his unabashed gaze, Xie Lian's Adam's apple rolled up and down, his voice hoarse, "...I mean you are still young."
"I'm older than you." Qi Chen simply said directly: "Then do you want to or not?"
No one could resist his sweetheart asking questions like this under him, Xie Lian's eyes darkened, "Are you really ready?"
In fact, no, but what happened in the past few days made Qi Chen a little uncertain about the future, and relatively wanted to seize the present even more.
Qi Chen moved his fingers and gave a very soft "hmm".
Xie Lian didn't pause for a moment, then clamped Qi Chen's chin with one hand, bowed his head and kissed him.
This was not the first time they kissed, even when they first entered the door, they kissed lightly once, but it was the one that fascinated Qi Chen the most.
Xie Lian intentionally took care of his breathing rate, but it became more painful due to the prolongation of time.Qi Chen couldn't help opening his eyes, but Xie Lian let go of his chin the moment he opened them, and covered his eyes instead.
"Don't look."
The lack of vision magnifies other senses. It's not a special word, but Qi Chen felt that his ears were itchy and his body temperature couldn't help rising.Even though he just took a shower, he felt like he was going to sweat again.
Breathing intertwined, just as Qi Chen was thinking about when there would be a next step, Xie Lian suddenly let him go and turned to the other side.
Qi Chen subconsciously reached out to touch it, but someone grabbed his wrist as soon as he made a move.
"Don't recruit me." Xie Lian's voice was a little more helpless and restrained, "There is nothing here, you will get hurt."
Qi Chen was dull for two seconds, and gradually understood what he meant.Although the two had confirmed their relationship for a while, he really didn't study how to implement this kind of thing in practice, and it seems that it is not that simple after hearing it now.
Seeing his reaction, Xie Lian knew that this person had swollen his face to pretend to be fat, sighed in his heart, turned over and held him in his arms, "Stop making trouble, it's getting late, go to sleep."
It was restless all night, and of course I got up late the next day.
Qi Chen opened his eyes, and first saw the sunlight pouring in from the window, it was a rare sunny day in winter.
Xie Lian seemed to have been awake for a while, leaning against the bed and reading a book.Seeing him open his eyes, he brushed the broken hair on his forehead, "Are you awake?"
Qi Chen habitually buried his head in the quilt, and murmured "um", "What time is it?"
Xie Lian: "Eleven o'clock."
"Eleven o'clock..." Qi Chen habitually repeated, and suddenly realized, "Is it eleven o'clock?"
"Hmm." Xie Lian asked, "What's the matter today?"
He didn't make an appointment with Gu Mingye to go back the next day, so his father probably wouldn't go to Gu's house to find him.
Afraid that Xie Lian would notice something unusual, Qi Chen pretended to be calm and covered it up: "It's okay, I just didn't expect it to be so late, I'm not going to stay in bed at home."
While talking, Qi Chen sat up and took out the phone under the pillow. The notification bar was clean and there were no unread messages.
Since no one is looking for him, there is a high probability that nothing will happen.Qi Chen breathed a sigh of relief, feeling relieved, threw the phone aside, and changed the subject, "Have you eaten yet?"
Xie Lian didn't expose him, and cooperated: "Not yet."
Qi Chen got up and said, "Then I'll go wash up, and we'll have dinner later."
This time was rather embarrassing, the breakfast shops were basically closed, and most of the lunch shops hadn't opened yet.But Xie Lian brought his own chef, so it was not a problem.
After Qi Chen finished washing, he realized that Mr. Xie had asked those people who came with Xie Lian to leave. He was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he thought it was right.After all, they were sent to follow others, since Xie Lian won't go back, it's only natural for them to stay.
At the dining table, while drinking porridge, Qi Chen was thinking about how to tell Xie Lian about things that he might not come out very often recently, but he didn't want to finish the porridge, Xie Lian took the initiative to speak first.
"I might have to go back to city b."
Qi Chen couldn't react, "Why do you want to go back all of a sudden?"
"A relative came back from abroad." Xie Lian stirred the porridge bowl with a calm expression on his face, "I need to be present."
Qi Chen said "Oh", thinking while drinking the porridge, thinking that this is also good.Qi's father has been strict with him recently, if he can't come out, it will be bad if Xie Lian finds out that something is wrong.
Thinking of this, Qi Chen asked, "Then when are you leaving?"
Xie Lian said, "This afternoon."
Qi Chen: "So fast?"
"I only found out in the morning." Xie Lian was apologetic, "I promised to accompany you, but I may miss the appointment for a few days, I will come back as soon as possible."
"I'm fine, just take your time." Qi Chen took out his phone and glanced at the time, "Have you bought your ticket? What time is the flight?"
Xie Lian: "Three o'clock."
Qi Chen counted the time and thought it was okay, "Then I'll see you off."
Xie Lian did not refuse, it was still early, the two of them finished their meal, packed their luggage in a leisurely manner, and then set off for the airport.
Years ago, during a special period, the flow of people at the airport was much higher than usual.Xie Lian didn't let Qi Chen get off the car, and asked the driver to take him back when he got to the airport.
It was only early four o'clock when I got home, and the weather turned cloudy, and it seemed that it was going to snow.
Qi Chen passed by the courtyard and saw that several pots of flowers and plants inside were still placed outside and had not been taken back.
Since the weather in S City turned cold, Mother Pei moved some of the more delicate flowers and plants in the courtyard into the building, and only occasionally moved them out at noon when the sun was at its best.
It's already four o'clock, but Mother Pei hasn't moved it back yet, which is a bit abnormal.
Qi Chen brought potted flowers into the house and almost bumped into Aunt Hu who hurried out at the door.
Aunt Hu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the flowerpot in his arms, "I was just about to move it back, but I forgot about it earlier."
"Is there no one at home?" Qi Chen asked strangely.
"My wife had a headache in the morning, and my husband sent her to the hospital." Aunt Hu simply explained, and went out to move the remaining flowers.
Mother Pei has a headache?
Aunt Hu didn't know, but Qi Chen did. The last time Pei Ruoyan mentioned Xie Lian's matter to Pei's mother, Pei's mother fainted suddenly, and the last thing she said was a headache.
Is it again...
But Xie Lian didn't show up at all yesterday, how could Pei's mother suddenly fall ill.
Qi Chen pursed his lips, accompanied Aunt Hu to finish moving the remaining flowers in the yard, and went back to his room to call Father Qi.
The phone rang for a while before it was picked up. Qi's father said in the usual tone, "Are you home?"
"Hmm..." Qi Chen said, "Is Auntie Pei okay?"
Father Qi said, "I'm already awake, there's nothing serious about it."
There was a slight "click" from the other side of the phone, but Qi Chen keenly caught it and quickly guessed it was a lighter.
Father Qi actually smoked.
Father Qi himself is not addicted to smoking, and he almost never smokes except for entertainment.Qi Chen also only occasionally heard adults mention the past, saying that Qi's father smoked a lot when Qi's mother just passed away.But since Qi Chen can remember, he has rarely seen the other party smoking.
What Qi Chen was going to say was blocked for a moment, stuck in his throat.It was Qi's father who called him first, "Chenchen."
Qi Chen: "Well..."
"You..." Father Qi hesitated to speak, "Forget it, tell Aunt Hu that you don't have to cook dinner for me and your Aunt Pei tonight."
Qi Chen said hello, and then asked, "What about Ruoyan?"
Father Qi said, "I'll let him go back later."
The two chatted casually before hanging up the phone. Qi Chen touched the case of the phone, thinking that Qi's father must know something.Although this discovery made Qi Chen feel a little heavy, there was also a hint of secret relief.
Ever since Qi Chen agreed to be with Xie Lian, he had thought about his parents to some extent.Although Qi's father's current reaction is not good, at least it is much better than the worst reaction he had imagined before.
Although the faintly expressed attitude still disapproved, at least he didn't get angry, and he didn't force him to sever contact.
Qi Chen thought about Qi's father's attitude, and felt that there was more or less room for it.
After Pei's mother was hospitalized, Qi Chen also visited her several times.It's just that I don't know if it's a coincidence, but every time I happen to catch up with Pei's mother for a checkup or a rest, and I can't meet each other.
Years ago, all kinds of work piled up, Qi's father was unprecedentedly busy, and occasionally went to the hospital when he was free, so he paid much less attention to Qi Chen.Qi Chen was too lazy to go out, so he just stayed in the room and made a video call with Xie Lian.
The two usually do their own thing, and they rarely make a sound, and only communicate occasionally.
Qi Chen didn't even hear the other person talking after completing a set of papers. He turned his head to look over and realized that Xie Lian had turned off the microphone at some point and was talking to the person on the other side.
Limited by the angle, Qi Chen couldn't see who was facing him, but could only feel the rare seriousness and seriousness between Xie Lian's brows.
It is said that men at work are the most attractive, and they seem to be true.
After a few minutes, a document was handed over from the other side. When Xie Lian reached out to take it, he glanced at the screen inadvertently, and happened to meet Qi Chen's eyes.
Qi Chen pulled a piece of paper and wrote three large characters, "You go first." He stood upright in front of the screen.
Xie Lian was taken aback for a moment, a smile gradually formed in his eyes, he raised his head and said a few words to the other side, then turned his eyes away, and turned on the microphone that was temporarily turned off. "Okay, it's all right now."
"So fast." Qi Chen put down the paper he had just set up, "I thought you were busy."
"It's not something important." Xie Lian said, flipped through two pages of the document, closed it and put it aside.
Qi Chen noticed that he put the document on the left, so he couldn't help but take a second look.
In fact, this is not the first time Qi Chen saw Xie Lian dealing with other matters in the video, it has been like this since the first day Xie Lian returned to City B.He also asked once before, Xie Lian only said that the family has a lot of things recently, and Mr. Xie asked him to help Second Uncle Xie to share.
Although Qi Chen felt that this matter was not as simple as Xie Lian said, but at first Uncle Xie's family had nothing to do with him, so he didn't ask further.
It was Xie Lian who took the initiative to ask him, "Are you busy the day after tomorrow?"
Qi Chen thought for a while, "There seems to be nothing wrong, what's wrong?"
Xie Lian said: "I will go back the day after tomorrow."
"Really?" Qi Chen originally thought that he would definitely not see each other years ago, but he didn't expect that there would be a surprise, "Is your family okay?"
"It's okay." Xie Lian said, "It's all arranged."
Qi Chen: "Then send me the flight later, and I will pick you up then."
Qi's father was on a business trip the day before yesterday, and he probably won't be back until a few days later, so the timing was just right.
Xie Lian didn't refuse. It happened that a phone came in. He picked it up and looked at it, but didn't answer it right away. He turned to Qi Chen and said, "I have something to do here. I have to go out later. I'll call you when I come back tonight?"
"Then go and do your work first." Qi Chen agreed, and took the initiative to hang up the video.
The laptop screen automatically jumps, Xie Lian looks away, looks at the phone that keeps ringing, and presses the answer button for the last few seconds.
The phone was connected, and Second Uncle Xie's voice sounded from it. Shen Dingzhong couldn't hide his anger, "Xiao Lian, we are all a family, so there is no need to go too far."
"Second uncle's words are wrong." Xie Lian moved his finger, controlled the mouse and turned off the laptop, "I have always treated you as family members, if you have time to care about what I do, why not ask your son first? "
Second Uncle Xie paused slightly, "Even if Xiao Sheng did something wrong, he is still your younger brother, why should you..."
Xie Lian was too lazy to listen any longer, so he hung up the phone directly.
Turning the phone to silent mode, Xie Lian got up and walked into the cloakroom next to the bedroom.
Considering the special status of the person he was going to meet next, Xie Lian put more thought into dressing after a long absence.I arrived at the hotel nearly 10 minutes earlier than the agreed time, and after everything was handled properly, I sat down in the reserved private room and quietly waited for someone to come.
At the same time as the hour hand pointed to the hour, the door of the private room was pushed open, and the visitors came in under the leadership of the waiter.
Xie Lian stood up at the right time, with a courteous attitude, "Uncle Qi."
It was already late, the two finished the cake separately, Qi Chen went to the bathroom to wash up, Xie Lian packed up the trash, waited for the sound of water in the bathroom, picked up the phone and left the bedroom.
Only the night light was left in the corridor, Xie Lianguang stood still on the dim balcony, turned on the screen, and dialed a number from the address book.
