strayed into the world

As a result, it was midnight after the entertainment.

It was time for the child to go to bed long ago, and it was difficult for him to fall asleep before. Xu Chi added sleeping pills to the milk, and these days were barely considered much more stable.

When Quan Ce led his subordinates into the door, he deliberately told them to be gentle. The faint light in the courtyard indicated that everyone in the room had already rested.With a sigh of relief, it seems to be normal.

So I stepped upstairs and entered the study room and started busy at midnight again.

When the hour hand passed 2 o'clock on the wall, the Americano in the cup had already run out. Quan Ce stretched himself, got up and went downstairs to the kitchen, intending to make a pot of coffee for himself.

Unexpectedly, when he passed through the living room, he saw a faint light from the dining room.Quan Ce was attracted by the chance light, thought it was some servant who was not asleep and dumped something, but when he went to look, the familiar figure was lying on the table and seemed to be asleep.There are several plates of sticky things that have not been touched at all on the table. Are they... dishes?

What about the rest? ?

I don't know how long he's been sleeping here, just fell asleep wearing thin pajamas, sure enough, he didn't know to wear an extra coat outside without reminding him, this idiot... walked over, Quan Ce touched it with his hand he,

"Qing Che, wake up."

The person who was awakened by the shaking reacted lazily, his shoulders moved, but he was still not fully awake.Quan Ce yelled again,

"Don't sleep."

"..." The child did not sleep deeply, felt the touch, slowly opened his eyes, blinked, tried to find the source of the sound, and after seeing a clear and handsome face, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth,

"Master, you are back."

Quan Ce didn't care about other things, and at the moment, his full of curiosity and pain in every detail turned into a question that blurted out from the corner of his mouth, "What are you doing here at this time?"

Qingche seemed to have not fully woken up from sleep, rubbed his eyes, looked at the things on the table, paused for a while before remembering, and muttered, "...I'm heating the rice."

"Hot rice? Then these are..." Quan Ce looked at the sticky things on the table that didn't look like much. "Are you hot?"

"En." Nodded, but immediately there was an expression of self-blame on his face, his brows twisted in a tangled knot, and he lowered his eyes, not daring to look at Quan Ce, "It's just...it took too long to become like this..."

Speechless...Quan Ce remembered Chen's advice and Xiao Nai's worries during the day...It seems that it really hit the mark.

frowning,

"Didn't eat enough?"

"..." The child shrugged his head, only showing the corners of his lips tightly.

Quan Ce got the answer in his heart, and tried his best to suppress the unexplained anger on the last string, took a breath and asked him again,

"Didn't have dinner?"

The child raised his eyes and glanced at Quan Ce, then quickly retracted his head and apologized.

"...Sorry, I overslept..."

Quan Ce looked at a bunch of things that he didn't understand, and then looked at the innocent face, and was angry with three parts of blame, seven parts of helplessness,

"Are you an idiot! Don't you know how to call someone? Look at what it looks like, can you eat it?"

Quan Ce's suddenly raised voice frightened Qing Che enough, shrunk his shoulders and pressed his lips tightly, and it took a long time before he uttered a word, tremblingly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Hearing the familiar sound of apology, Quan Ce realizes that his runaway state has frightened the people in front of him. In fact, he really doesn't want to admit that he is like Xiao Nai said, and now it seems that he is seriously frustrated.He was completely defeated by the person in front of him.There is nothing wrong with him, put away his temper, and sighed.

Forget it, how could this idiot ask other people to help.It is already the limit for him to know that when he is hungry, he comes out and secretly looks for food alone.

"Didn't Chen teach you how to use a microwave oven?"

"Only hot cocoa."

"It's really the young master's life."

"No, no." The child thought it was Quan Ce's ridicule again.Quickly shaking his head and explaining again and again, but found that explaining can only be tantamount to covering up, he really doesn't know anything.

"Okay, I have no other intentions." Quan Ce didn't want to see him fall into his own thoughts and self-torture.Change the subject.

"Wait a few minutes. I'll serve you a bowl of noodles."

As soon as the words fell, Qing Che raised his head and stared at Quan Ce with black eyes in surprise, "Young Master?"

"Do not believe?"

Shaking his head, nodding again, shaking his head again, and finally nodding solemnly.

Quan Ce grabbed the child's head and overbearingly stopped his funny moves, intending to prove it with actions,

"Show me well."

After finishing speaking, Quan Ce handsomely took off his coat and threw it to Qing Che, rolling up his sleeves as if to do a big job.There were mixed feelings in my heart, and I sighed secretly, I didn't expect that I would not be able to rest and cook here when I came back... It's really amazing.

Who would have expected that one day he would cook for Xia Qingche himself.

Qing Che stood at the door, looking eagerly at the busy man in the kitchen, his dark eyes were filled with curiosity.He never knew that Quan Ce could cook, and he always thought that he would never do such a thing because he was aloof.The most amazing thing was that he was cooking for himself. ...Thinking of this, I feel warm in my heart, as sweet as eating chocolate.

It also becomes worthwhile to wait a day.

****

A few minutes later, Quan Ce put the hot noodles in front of Qing Che, clapped his hands, "Eat."

"Thank you." I was so moved that I couldn't say anything except 'thank you'. I swallowed when I saw the colorful and fragrant noodles in front of me, not to mention that this was the first time Quan Ce made it for him. I really couldn't bear it.

"Eat, aren't you hungry?" Seeing him staring blankly at his face with big eyes and small eyes, Quan Ce curled his mouth, "Still not to your liking?"

"No, no." Qing Che couldn't tell Quan Ce that he was reluctant to eat this bowl of noodles.If possible, he hopes to keep it forever.

Even holding the chopsticks is like a grand ceremony, taking a solemn bite, chewing carefully...

"How is it?" Quan Ce was a little worried. He hadn't cooked for a long time, and he didn't know how the taste would be, whether it would be too salty, whether it would be too spicy, or whether it would be really bad... in his memory It's been ten years since I last cooked...

At that time, every day was like hell, there was no light and future, and it was too much to take care of the tearful mother.At that time, every meal he cooked was just for food and clothing, so why did he cook again ten years later?

"It's delicious!" Qing Che still had food stuffed in his mouth, grinning with a bun face, but there was a satisfied hook on the corner of his mouth.The straightforward praise made Quan Ce very uncomfortable, and he would definitely despise those flattering people on weekdays.But these words are very sincere when they come out of the child's mouth.

"Really?"

"En!" Qing Che blinked her big eyes, with a satisfied little hook on the corner of her mouth, just like a kitten.

"I don't believe it, I want to try it." After saying that, Quan Ce took the chopsticks from his hand, regardless of whether it was the noodles he had eaten before, picked up the noodles, and delivered them to his mouth.

"It's delicious."

"It's not bad. It can be done better." Quan Ce stuffed the chopsticks into his hands again, so naturally, as if they would have another time.Qing Che nodded aside, holding the chopsticks that Quan Ce had held, with a faint smile on his face, as clear and beautiful as the first rays of sunlight in the morning.

"Young master is amazing!"

"Eat quickly, so much nonsense!"

"Really amazing!"

"I know I'm good!"

****

It rained suddenly in the middle of the night.

It was already the night of early autumn, and it was raining heavily like midsummer, which made it even more difficult for Qing Che, who had always been a light sleeper, to fall asleep.Lying on the bed tossing and turning, my stomach was full, and my heart was so swollen that it was about to explode.But there is no sleepiness at all.The more I think about it, the more spiritual I become.

Simply get up and go out to pour a glass of milk.

I got used to walking barefoot in the corridor at this time, the dim light illuminated the two walls much colder, Qing Che went to the stairs with her arms folded and stopped, was it an illusion? ... He vaguely heard voices coming from the master bedroom... He was stunned for a while, only the patter of rain could be heard but there was no sound.After thinking about it, I probably heard it wrong.So he was about to go downstairs, but just as he took a step, the sound mixed with the sound of rain hit his chest. ——turned around, full of curiosity and worry, and walked over there.

Standing in front of this door, Qing Che clearly remembered that this was his taboo, only once, he went inside, and that time he thought it was the last time he stepped into this room.Because he didn't expect that he would be alive after that.

At this time, the sound inside seemed to be much louder, and Qing Che's previous uncertainty finally had an answer.Taking a deep breath, holding on to the breath and not daring to let out a breath, he stretched out his hand to open the door, as if the darkness inside would swallow him with fear, Qingche didn't know where he had the courage to overcome this strong heartbeat, The moment after opening the door, the heartbeat became clearer...
