Glass Butterfly

When Ruan Youqing woke up, Tang Tu was already sitting in the living room with his computer in his arms, his ginger cashmere sweater showing his shirt collar.Now he couldn't see Tang Tu wearing a shirt, and couldn't help but glance at his thighs.There are many little secrets hidden in this person, and I don't know if new ones will be discovered in the future.

"Eat something." Tang Tu tapped the keyboard rhythmically without raising his eyes.

After Ruan Youqing washed up, she sat across from Tang Tu and opened the convenience store paper bag on the table. There were two meat buns and a bowl of oden next to it.He glanced at the trash can, where the transparent bag with bread was thrown.

"I like this meat bun." He took a bite of the bun, and it was warm but not hot. It seemed that he hadn't bought it for a long time.

Hearing what he said, Tang Tu suddenly raised his eyes from his work, looked at him over the edge of the notebook, and said softly, "I know." Seeing him raise his eyebrows, he added, "Miss Suzuki from the convenience store told me. Why didn't you buy breakfast today?"

Ruan Youqing's breakfast for more than half a year was almost settled in the convenience store downstairs.Bread, meat buns, sandwiches, rice balls, oden, croquettes, burgers, juice coffee milk.The girl surnamed Suzuki is the store manager, and she meets him across the cash register almost every day, and the two naturally become acquaintances.Suzuki asked his name, and when he saw him, he said hello in Chinese.

At the beginning of winter, the girl kindly knitted gloves for him. When he went home and opened them, he found that there was a red heart on the back of the hand of the white woolen gloves. Only then did he understand why the other party blushed and didn’t look at his face when receiving the gift. .So I took the time to burn a glass goldfish pendant that day, packed it with gloves and sent it back to the convenience store: "Thank you, but I'm not used to wearing gloves."

They still just greet each other briefly every day, Suzuki is an easy-going girl, and doesn't seem to take this matter too seriously.

"How does she know that we are together..." Ruan Youqing swallowed the meat bun.

"I don't know. As soon as I entered the door, she looked behind me. When paying, she asked me if I was your friend, why you haven't passed the past two days, and whether you're not feeling well..." Tang Tu smiled incomprehensibly. "It seems that I am worrying too much. There are many people here to take care of you."

Probably Suzuki noticed when I went to buy oden with Tang Tu the night before yesterday.Otaru is a small place, so delicate and elegant men like Tang Tu are not common.

"Maybe because she hasn't seen anyone like you very much, so she remembers you." Ruan Youqing ate quickly, he washed his hands and got dressed, and Tang Tu was ready to wait for him at the door.

They soaked in the studio all day, Tang Tu called the izakaya's food delivery at noon, Ruan Youqing ate a few mouthfuls indiscriminately and then plunged into the electric kiln.After the continuous snowfall in the past two weeks, the temperature suddenly began to rise. There was a non-stop heating machine around, and people were sweating from the heat. Ruan Youqing took off the fleece sweater and threw it on the chair beside him. Only a black T-shirts were worn under leather aprons.

In the sunny afternoon, Tang Tu stood up from the computer desk, walked to the atrium, and looked at the work area from the yard where the door was not closed.He unscrupulously traced the young artist's flat shoulders and slightly undulating upper arms with his eyes, and Ruan Youqing's usually clean and gentle face was amazingly focused at this moment, his brows were slightly frowned, his lips were tightly pursed, and every breath seemed to be under control Inside.

"Tang Tu? Tang Tu??" Cheng Mo called him over the headset: "Then plan A is decided?"

"Yes." Accidentally, he was engrossed, and he almost forgot Cheng Mo on the other end of the voice. They were discussing the upcoming small art exhibition in the gallery.Liu Yan and Xu Hanyi are getting used to it more and more. The outline of the conversation with the artist that he just sent yesterday morning has just been finalized into a full manuscript.

"...Why don't you talk about it when you come back. Whose business are you busy with first?" Cheng Mo teased him.

"I'm listening. Tell me what you want. Don't delay." Tang Tu looked away and strolled in the atrium. The not-so-tall ginkgo tree began to grow new leaves, and bare branches emerged from the cracked bark in clusters. Clusters of fresh green that you can touch with your hands.

A voice call continued until the phone's battery had run out. After Tang Tu hung up, she walked to Ruan Youqing's desk in the office area to look for a charging socket. She wondered if she had just looked up for too long, and her eyes turned black.

"Mr. Tang?" Kojima Sora came in from the door, "You are here, the teacher also said that there will be no one in the studio today. Where is Youqing?"

Tang Tu smiled and pointed in the direction of the atrium: "I'm busy. I said I want to catch up with Jin Zeshang's deadline."

"Ah! That's great! I hope I can make it in time." Kojima went to her own computer, "The teacher said to recruit a new studio assistant." After speaking, the girl buried her head in the computer, yawning.

In the evening, Ruan Youqing took a shower and changed, and found Kojima was there too: "Is Yucai okay?" He looked at the other party's exaggerated dark circles and asked.

"It's all right, but it's not just a simple fever. She has chickenpox." Xiaojima complained sadly, "The doctor said to watch her and not scratch her, otherwise the blisters will leave scars if scratched."

Seeing that she looked like she stayed up all night, Ruan Youqing nodded: "It's hard work. You have a good rest, let's go first. I won't be here tomorrow, and I have to take him to the airport."

"What do you want to eat?" Tang Tu asked him on the way back.

"Eat whatever you want. I'll take you to eat delicious food tomorrow." After speaking, Ruan Youqing was a little excited. This was the first time in his life that he said this to someone. Usually he was the one who followed behind others.

"I'm leaving, why are you so happy?" Tang Tu glanced at him.

"I'm happy because you're here, not because you're leaving." Ruan Youqing tilted her head helplessly, "And I'll go back in summer, and three months will soon pass."

He stuffed Tang Tu's hand into his pocket and went to the convenience store to buy some hot food and drinks.Suzuki stared at his pocket from the beginning to the end, when there was no one else in the store when paying, Ruan Youqing took the initiative to explain: "Boyfriend, come and see me." As soon as he finished speaking, the hand in his pocket held his Tighter.

Unexpectedly, Ruan Youqing didn't go to the Takahashi House that Ruan Youqing was thinking about, so she turned around and went to the hospital.

Tang Tu canceled the air ticket, and dragged his luggage back to the apartment with him. Seeing Ruan Youqing's tightly bandaged wrists, he couldn't help feeling anxious.

"Does it hurt?" Tang Tu's face turned pale: "It's too dangerous...you're brave enough..."

What happened not long ago left them with lingering fears, but Ruan Youqing didn't care about the sprained wrist, but rejoiced...if he was too late, he would die.

Today they woke up early, warmed up in the quilt for a while, then packed up their things and went out, leaving enough time to arrive at the station early.

There were a lot of people going out on weekends, the sun was beautiful, the wind was clear and the sky was clear. It was a good weather for playing. A few boys who looked like elementary school students were frolicking around, and occasionally some people showed impatient expressions, but they didn't stop them.

Ruan Youqing and Tang Tu did not hold hands in a high-profile manner in front of people, but only slightly touched each other's sleeves and stood side by side.

One second before, they were lamenting the warmer weather on the platform, and the next second when the train entered the station, a boy knocked and flew the girl who was waiting behind the safety line.

Seeing that the half-person tall child was about to fall off the platform, Ruan Youqing was not close or far away, but she was the one with the quickest reaction. She flew over almost horizontally, grabbed the girl's ankle, and forced her to The little girl, who had fallen off most of her body, lifted it up with one hand.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye, and the action was done in one go, before the stunned girl even had time to cry.

Fortunately, the clothes were thick, and the child was not injured except for being frightened and crying non-stop. The station staff and the girl's mother bowed to Ruan Youqing gratefully.

The sentences they spoke were fast and long, and the honorifics were inherently complicated. Ruan Youqing couldn't understand them at all, so he could only look at the track from time to time. The hearing aid that flew out must have been dismembered by the train wheels... He sighed and looked for him Tang Tu, who was dealing with others, was so noisy here that he wanted to leave.

So he silently withdrew from the room to take a few breaths of fresh air.By the time Tang Tu finished dealing with him, the car had already left: "Wait another 20 minutes." One bus was missed, plus the 20-minute delay on the timetable, it probably wouldn't be possible to go to Takahashiya.He was a bit regretful: "Next time, you will definitely like it there." Naturally, he wanted to take the trolley case from Tang Tu's hand, but when he moved his wrist, there was a tingling pain, and the suitcase slid open.

They lowered their heads at the same time, and found that the wrist of his left hand was red and swollen visible to the naked eye, and the protruding ulnar joint disappeared.I'm afraid that the hand that just rushed over to support the ground was injured.

Tang Tu immediately accompanied him to the hospital.Even though Ruan Youqing repeatedly emphasized that it was only a sprain, she was still forced to take a film.The doctor grabbed his hand to test the condition of the injury, and twisted his fingers near the injury with a blank expression. A piercing pain spread along his wrist, and he couldn't help but gasped and trembled.But Tang Tubie's fearful look at the beginning relieved his pain somewhat.

"It's okay. No bone is hurt, but you need to rest. Don't use any strength on this hand within a week." The doctor applied cold compresses for him and prescribed oral painkillers. "Even if the pain is relieved, don't be careless, otherwise it will be easy to recover improperly." Leave the hidden danger of habitual sprains."

"You can't leave hidden dangers." Tang Tu finally lost his composure. He walked to the doctor and said earnestly, "His hands are very important. What should we do to avoid leaving hidden dangers?"

He had stood by the side calmly since he entered the door, and he frightened the doctor by speaking suddenly: "Don't be nervous, the contusion is not serious. Supplement nutrition, rest well, and then slowly return to normal use. Don't be impatient. Wait until it completely disappears." After the swelling, just massage gently every day, like this, it's very simple." The doctor grasped Ruan Youqing's other wrist to demonstrate the technique.

"It's just a contusion of the joint ligament, and it will be healed soon." After coming out of the hospital, Ruan Youqing wiped the sweat off Tang Tu's forehead with his right hand, as if he was the one who was shot by the doctor just now.

"It doesn't hurt much after applying it." Seeing that he was silent, Ruan Youqing looked down at the time, and there was still time to take the next bus to the airport, "I'll take you to the station."

"I'll accompany you back." Tang Tu stared at his bandaged wrist worriedly.

"That job..."

"It's nothing important. You can do the same here." Tang Tu held his uninjured right hand tightly, ignoring the quiet sideways glances of passers-by. Ruan Youqing didn't care at all, and no one recognized them anyway.

"Then I'll re-book Takahashi House, and we'll go eat next week." He couldn't help laughing, is this a blessing in disguise?

Tang Tu watched his hand carefully and refused to let him do anything.Ruan Youqing wanted to resist at first, but the sprain doesn't need to be like a broken hand.But seeing Tang Tu's distressed and self-blaming eyes, he couldn't refute, and just let the other party treat him as a semi-crippled general for a few days.On the third day, the swelling in his wrist was almost completely subsided, so Tang Tu began to massage for him following the technique taught by the doctor, pushing and rubbing his fingertips along the texture around the joint, and the slight tingling was quite refreshing.

"It's okay, Jin Ze rewards in time." Ruan Youqing comforted him.

"That doesn't matter. Let's talk about it when we fully recover." Tang Tu broke open the crab legs for him with metal clips, took out the fat and tender meat and fed it directly into his mouth.The king crab meat is so plump, Ruan Youqing subconsciously licked Tang Tu's fingers dipped in sweet soy sauce, and he never forgot the sweeter Matsuba crab from Takahashiya. If he doesn't go again, he will miss the season. Maybe only this time.

Just as he was thinking about it, his eyes dimmed, and Tang Tu slammed into him and kissed him deeply. After the kiss, he didn't forget to stuff a piece of crab meat for him to chew: "Your hand is still hurt, don't start the fire."

... He gulped down what was in his mouth, but he didn't explain it after all.

"I'm going back to Tubai tomorrow, and I'll be back the day after tomorrow." Tang Tu has become more and more used to housework these days, neatly tidying up a table of crab shells, and wiping the table with a cleaning cloth.

Ruan Youqing was taken aback: "My hand is already healed. Don't run around."

"I have to go to Tokyo when I come back. I'm talking about the domestic agency of a few artists. I really want to go back after I'm done with this matter." Tang Tu stroked his hair, "So let's rest early, I'm going to Get up early."

"I heard that there are already cherry blossoms in Tokyo." Ruan Youqing said silently before going to bed.

Hokkaido is too cold, and it may take more than half a month for the Sakura front line to advance, but Tang Tu has already returned to China by then.
