Strange disease

So, under Shi Yuting's horrific coercion, I quickly packed up and changed my clothes, was half escorted and half escorted to the subway by her, and went straight to Xi Rong's house.

Later, I thought many times that I should really thank her.

In fact, it's not that I didn't think about being bold, that Xi Rong might reject me mercilessly, it's just that I set up countless obstacles for myself and hesitated to move forward.

And feelings may be like this, it needs a brave start.

I dragged my suitcase and got off the subway, and walked all the way to the door of Xi Rong's house in anxiety and entanglement. Fortunately, it was a Saturday, otherwise I might have waited for him to come home forever.

Xi Rong opened the door, wearing dark gray casual home clothes, he was surprised: "What's wrong with you?"

My heart was pounding, and I took a deep breath secretly before putting on a relaxed expression.

"I'm unemployed." I tried to whisper in a humble tone, "Doctor, can you take me in? I can sweep the floor, cook, whatever... otherwise I'll just be on the street I drank the northwest wind..."

Shi Yuting also taught me these words. In fact, there is a half sentence "I can warm your bed" at the end, but I really can't say it. Really, just like this, I have sprouted [-] times in Xi Rong The urge to dig a hole in front of you.

Xi Rong chuckled softly, probably he also thought it was funny, so he laughed at me mercilessly.

Please, Xi Rong, can you save some face...

I tried hard to put on a sullen face, trying to show that this was a serious matter.

Well.. I give up.. I find it funny too.. Shit.

Xi Rong smiled and gave way: "Come in."

I walked in with a blushing face and bowed my head, and put on another pair of slippers at the door. He lifted the suitcase for me very naturally, and pushed into the vacant room next to the study.

I hopped and followed behind Xi Rong, trying not to let him see my excited mood at this time, obviously I have been here many times before, but it was the first time to be a "long-term tenant" of Xi Rong's house, and I felt I can't help being a little excited.

In fact, I felt like I was about to fly with joy.

The summer vacation is less than two months away, I can see him every day when I open and close my eyes, and I can also eat and live with him, how can there be such a good thing in the world!

In fact, I really didn't expect Xi Rong to let me in so easily. This is what makes me the happiest.He didn't reject me at all... Is it because, at least he didn't find me troublesome?

Since you don't bother me and don't hate seeing me, maybe it's just a joke...

I was thinking to myself, my heart went up and down, like a little rabbit jumping back and forth.

In the evening, Xi Rong prepared a very sumptuous dinner. He also bought a grilled chicken with a charred skin in the supermarket. I didn't have a good appetite because of my irregular diet, so I had to tell Xi Rong that I drank too much coffee in the afternoon, but fortunately he didn't ask.

Xi Rong casually asked me why I suddenly lost my job, and I gave him a brief description of why I resigned earlier, which was not a lie.

After listening, he said: "You should have told me earlier."

He continued: "Is there anything missing? I'll take you to buy it tonight?"

I looked at him, and felt an indescribable feeling in my heart, which was indescribable, like a warm current seeping in from the outside to the bottom of my heart.

I was full, so I went out for a walk with him with my round belly in my arms, just in time to see if there were any daily necessities that needed to be purchased.

Probably because I was too full, I walked slower than a snail, moving forward step by step, Xi Rong blocked me on the inner side of the sidewalk, saying how young I was, and I was already in my seventies.

The night market on the street is open. Colorful open-air hoods are set up one after another. The whole road is bustling with people. The aroma of grilled skewers drifts leisurely with the evening wind. The lights are colorful and colorful. They are obviously man-made lights and shadows, but they may not be as bright as the sky. The twinkling starry sky is even less colorful.

I was in a daze for a moment, and suddenly a concrete and clear thought arose in my heart, as if the illusory future suddenly became real.

I thought, if I could grow old together with him, if we could be like this when we were 80 or [-] years old, our heads covered with frost and snow, we would take each other out for a walk after dinner, blowing the wind, and slowly supporting each other through the lively night market , mocking each other for walking so slowly...

——That will definitely be the most perfect ending in my life.

Suddenly a bicycle passed by behind us, Xi Rong whispered "be careful", put his arms around me gently, and put me in a safe range, it was a subconscious protective action, Then wait for the bike to pass before letting go without a trace.

My heartbeat started to go out of order again, recalling the temperature of his body when I was half leaning in his arms just now, I couldn't help but look at him, but his gaze didn't fall on me again.

We walked around a small convenience store on the side of the road, and I bought a sky blue plastic washbasin with cartoon Smurfs printed on it.

Xi Rong’s family has other things, but at worst I can use his. I brought toothbrushes and towels. When Xi Rong asked me if I wanted to buy pajamas, I made up my mind and said, “I can wear yours.”

On the way back, I came across a small vendor selling fruit on the side of the street. I saw the round figs were very pleasing, so I bought some, and then bought a pound of apples and half a pound of oranges under the enthusiasm of the vendors. , a grapefruit and a basket of strawberries.

Oh, anyway, I will stay at Xi Rong's house for a long time, so I can finish my meal after all~

I convince myself so.

The washbasin I just bought came in handy. Finally, like a fool, I returned home with a huge washbasin full of various fruits, panting like an old scalper with a plow.

Xi Rong asked helplessly: "I want to eat fruit so much? Shall I wash some for you?"

I shook my head, slumped there and played tricks on him: "I can't, I'm so full, I can't eat today, but I really want to eat, what should I do?"

Xi Rong directly ignored my unreasonable trouble, and came to pull me: "Get up, it's cold on the ground."

I smiled at him cheerfully: "You eat for me, lend me your stomach, even if I eat, okay?"

Xi Rong raised his eyebrows: "What kind of fallacy is this?"

I grabbed his hand and shook it, and Xi Rong turned around and went back to the kitchen to peel the oranges.

He handed the peeled oranges to me, saying that this guy has serious obsessive-compulsive disorder, peeling an orange is very beautiful and symmetrical, the five petals of the orange peel support the round fruit in the middle like a small flower, even his knuckle fingers Stained with the unique fragrance of orange.

He signaled me with his eyes: really don't want to eat?

Alas, I really have more energy than I want, there is no room in my stomach, I picked up a piece and stuffed it into his mouth: "Is it sweet?"

He didn't speak. I judged by his expression that it should be sweet. I sat up lazily. The marble floor in his living room was hard and cold. lazy sofa."

Xi Rong rubbed my head, and said "um", I don't know whether he agreed or not, I think he probably meant "well, I heard it."

I'm just saying it casually, after all, I only lived in Xi Rong's house for two months, so it seems a bit worthless to spend hundreds of dollars to buy a sofa to put on the floor.

As a result, within a few days, he really got me a super huge lazy sofa, placed it next to the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, and covered it with a carpet, so that I could lie there like a dried salted fish sunbathe.

Woohoo, it's over, I feel like him even more...

What should I do, a lazy sofa bought me off...

Well, no, Dr. Xi is so attractive, I have long since given up on him.

Although drinking too much coffee was a lie, but that night, as if I had taken too much stimulant, I tossed and turned in bed and couldn't sleep.

Xi Rong gave me a pair of his cotton short-sleeved pajamas. I smelled the light and familiar smell on it, and I had a very strong urge to dirty the clothes.

I suddenly realized that I was completely self-inflicted, obviously it was me who proposed to wear his clothes, and it was me who was so restless and unable to sleep in the end.

...It's miserable.

After rolling on the bed for a long time, I felt a little thirsty again in the early morning and wanted to go out to get a glass of water.

I gently pushed open the door and entered the kitchen. There was no sound, I guess Xi Rong was already fast asleep.

I took a glass down from the bowl rack more and more carefully, for fear of making any noise, but unexpectedly, I was afraid of something. When I was pouring water, my hand slipped and the glass fell to the ground. The poor glass suddenly shattered.

I'm really convinced... I don't even understand why I am so stupid.

After making such a big commotion, Xi Rong was indeed woken up by me. He came out of the bedroom, and I was still standing in front of a pile of broken glass with a face of bewilderment.

He stepped forward and sighed softly: "Don't move, don't touch, sit on the side."

I was afraid that he would say that I was in the way, so I quickly and obediently stayed on the high stool next to me, not daring to cause him any more trouble.

Xi Rong found a broom and squatted down to clean up the mess for me.

From my point of view, I saw that his hair was curled up a little by sleeping, no longer like the meticulous, cold and unapproachable appearance when I saw him, he deserted inexplicably, I really wanted to reach out and touch him Touch the hair that sticks out.

However, he packed up and stood up before I reached out, so I had to withdraw my hand and sighed regretfully.

He neatly cleaned up the glass debris and put them in a garbage bag, then came back and asked me, "It's so late at night, what are you making a fuss about?"

I can't say that I miss him so much that I can't sleep, so I have to use the excuse I used before, and said with a smile: "I accidentally drank too much coffee during the day..."

He propped his hands on my side, looking at me sitting on the high stool from bottom to top. He looked like he was still awake, didn't wear glasses, and his voice was hoarse, in the silent night But it has an indescribable taste.

"Are you a child? Do you have to pat your back and coax you before you can fall asleep?"

I don't know what made him come to such a conclusion, I was a little ashamed, but I blushed unapologetically, and denied it in a low voice: "It's not..."

"Really?" He asked softly, half-closed his eyes, I was sure that he was not awake, even his eyes were dazed, he leaned forward, put one hand through the bend of my leg, and held the other Grabbing my back, he picked me up from the high stool like a child, and wrapped me in his arms.

It was the first time that I was carried so high in the air... I was so frightened that I didn't dare to move, for fear that Xi Rong would accidentally drop me.

On the other hand, it was also the first time for me to be hugged by Xi Rong like this, and I felt like my whole body was on fire, and the "thumping" heartbeat in my chest almost burst through my throat.

Xi Rong took me back to the room, but it was not my original room, but put me directly on his bed, and his body temperature was still lingering in the bedding.

I opened my eyes wide, but Xi Rong lay down next to me directly, patted my back with one hand, closed her eyes and coaxed softly in a tired voice: "Okay, go to sleep."

He never thought that his behavior would only make me more excited, and it would be impossible for me to fall asleep, okay...

My heart was beating wildly, I was sadly and happily immersed in the excitement of Xi Rong hugging me for the first time, and in the end I was so happy that I couldn't sleep all night.

The next day I woke up with two huge dark circles under my eyes. Xi Rong seemed to have forgotten what happened yesterday and what I should do until I wandered off several times while he was talking to me. He asked in a tone that he didn't know how to describe: "What's wrong with you? Didn't you just smash a glass and didn't sleep well all night? Afraid that I will make you lose money?"

"...Ah?" I recovered from my trance, and I knew without looking that I must have a demented expression, "No, no..."

Xi Rong showed a slightly joking expression, and asked strangely: "What's the matter with you? Are you nervous?"

I can't say I'm really nervous, but the reason is definitely not what he thinks.

At that moment, the little white rabbit that was about to move in my heart froze again. Yesterday I was still thinking about whether he also had that kind of meaning for me, but now he just extinguished the little unruly flame in my heart. down.

He thought I couldn't sleep because I dropped the cup, but in fact I couldn't sleep because I was jealous of his body.

Neither of us are on a channel at all.

What's the matter?

We can't talk together.

I don't think he has that concept at all, even men can like men.

In fact, after chatting with Xi Rong overtly and secretly, I learned that he had two girlfriends, but they broke up after a few months of dating. I was even lucky enough to meet one of them. The supermodel is still beautiful, if I'm not a crook, I would want to date her, that's not an exaggeration.

She is still Xi Rong's class flower when she was in medical university, a university bully, and now a postdoctoral fellow. Not only is she good-looking and has a superb figure, but her salary alone can crush me into a scumbag. It is said that she has immigrated to Switzerland in the past two years.

Although Xi Rong has repeatedly stated that he has no intention of rekindling the old relationship, I have asked him the reason for breaking up many times. At first I was really just purely curious, but after I fell in love with him, this question became more important. I said Xi Rong, With such a perfect partner, why are you willing to let go?

Xi Rong looked at me quite speechlessly, and said, "My personality doesn't match.

Well, these four words can really be used as a universal excuse for breaking up.

At that time, I couldn't help but wondered, if the lover of your dreams was standing in front of you, and all her conditions perfectly met your mate selection criteria, except for a little problem with her personality, would you give up on her because of this?Don't you feel sorry?

I thought so, and asked the same question.

Xi Rong pondered for a moment and said, yes.

Ok?

No, really?

I was stunned, and said in my heart that I really didn't expect Xi Rong to be so rigid in terms of feelings, that she couldn't accept any flaws?

I mourned for a second of silence for my soon-to-be cool crush.

Xi Rong continued slowly in a calm voice: "There is no standard for love, so with me, there is no so-called perfect condition, and your presupposition is not valid."

Although he said this, I always felt that when he said this sentence, he was discussing academic papers in the same tone.

A person who is extremely rational is probably also extremely rational in love. I thought Xi Rong was the kind of person who would thoroughly analyze and consider all aspects, but I didn't want to get an unexpected answer from him.

But this sounds more difficult. After all, no standard is the most difficult standard. If he said he likes good-looking ones, I can still follow his aesthetics to make the whole appearance, right? I don't know what to do and where to work hard.

I decided to go back to the previous topic: "So where is your personality disagreement?"

Xi Rong frowned slightly, pondered for half a second, and then said: "She thinks that I don't care about her enough, but in fact I don't think so. She thinks that I can't give her a sense of security at all, and we had quite a big quarrel because of it. Disagreement."

I was dumbfounded, and thought to myself, that kind of glamorous, beautiful college bully who can be called the dream lover of all straight men would also feel insecure?

Then I suddenly realized...if the object is Xi Rong...well...it is indeed very possible...

I thought to myself, if Xi Rong became my boyfriend, I would worry every day that the wild flowers and weeds outside would secretly covet him while I was not paying attention.

Ugh
