Glass Butterfly

After waiting for the girl beside him to leave, Tang Tu took the first few steps forward, took out the lost mobile phone from his pocket and stuffed it into his palm: "Don't be careful when you go out."

The moment he saw the phone, he understood why the other party appeared in front of him.

Ruan Youqing's heartbeat accelerated slightly with the contact between the two skins, and he said without thinking: "Tang Tu. That day my mobile phone was secretly hidden by Qin Xiaoran, so I couldn't contact you. Wait for me before, I didn't hang up your phone. Jiang Jilan is a brother and a friend. It's different from you. No one is like you..." He was eager to explain, but he was a little incoherent, and he tried his best to break through the limit of his speaking speed.

Tang Tu listened to him quietly, but did not express his opinion on his excuse, but stared down at his pocket and said: "Don't take things from strangers casually."

Ruan Youqing looked at his gentle expression, her heartbeat gradually calmed down.He took out the thank you from the strange girl and handed it to the other party: "She was pestered at the door, so I helped her." In fact, he didn't do anything, he just stood beside the girl for a few minutes, asking with his eyes if he needed anything. Help, and did not refuse the other party to escape to him.

Now standing in front of the holy statue, he thanked himself yesterday. Not only did he lose his phone, but he also left Tang Tu's name and number by some mysterious accident.After all, he once said that this is a place he must come to once in his life.And at this once-in-a-lifetime moment, there is already the person who should not be missed standing beside him.

"Young Qing..." Tang Tu grabbed the finger he was about to pull away after handing out the candy, "What are you doing in Italy?"

"Don't you know?" Ruan Youqing gently hooked the tightly held fingers, "I'll come to see the church, and I'll pick you up from get off work by the way."

He saw steam welling up from the corners of Tang Tu's eyes, and he wanted to hug him short of breath.

This person maintains rationality and self-sustainability 90.00% of the time, but always bursts out like sparks with a spoonful of oil in the remaining gaps.

Ruan Youqing pinched his wrist and cruelly rejected the long-lost hug, and reminded the other party in a solemn atmosphere: "This is not possible."

Behind it is Michelangelo's masterpiece. The Virgin is still mourning the dead Son. As a mortal, he couldn't bear to profane, and he led the slightly trembling Tang Tu away from the church before he could spy on the details.

The two stopped in front of a deserted city wall, and Ruan Youqing was pushed against the old and dirty wall by the other party to kiss, while his lips and tongue were tossing, he heard Tang Tu repeating like a ghost hitting the wall: "I'm sorry, young man. Qing. I'm sorry."

"Tang Tu...well...wait..." He wanted to stop this kind of meaningless apology. The matter was not that serious. Injured by his own sluggishness.But the other party didn't give him a chance to speak at all, and just kissed him chaotically.

Ruan Youqing had no choice but to take the initiative first, pinch his chin lightly, and deepen this disorderly kiss.

While controlling the man's trembling tongue and pushing it over, he gently stroked the tense back in his arms.I don't know if it was because the soothing effect was effective or because he was gradually unable to breathe, Tang Tu finally calmed down, and the hands holding his cheeks also fell to his shoulders.

Ruan Youqing let him go, and waited for the two of them to calm down before saying, "Don't say sorry. I didn't think you would leave me like this."

Tang Tu stared at him and frowned, and smiled wryly at himself: "But I didn't believe you. I left you there alone..." It's a bit arrogant to say that, Ruan Youqing is not someone's appendage, he is smart , Patience, tolerance, has long been able to stand alone.

There were more and more tourists around, and the two of them looked at each other and felt that this was not a good place to talk.

"Where do you live?" Tang Tu asked.

"There is a B&B nearby. However, there is no place to stay after I went back to pick up my luggage after watching the church. I only booked for one night. I will take the train to Venice in the afternoon."

"Then... go get your luggage first, then go to my place... I haven't checked out yet."

The place Tang Tu stayed in always had a faint scent of soap, and Ruan Youqing would relax reflexively when he smelled it, and instinctively wanted to nestle into a pillow when he entered the room.

After careful consideration, he still chose to sit on the small sofa and wait for Tang Tu to speak.

"How can you contact me if you lose your phone... What if I go back?" Tang Tu poured him a cup of tea, unscrewed a bottle of mineral water, and sat beside him.

"I don't think you will leave before the successful opening of the Biennale." Ruan Youqing replied truthfully, then thought that the other party left early for her own sake, and changed her words, "If I really missed it, I will go back to find you , Tubai can’t escape.” He glanced at the iris, and asked in a low voice, “Do you like the gift?”

"You...why aren't you angry with me?" Tang Tu stroked the small collar pin with a tangled expression, "I received Jiang Jilan's email. He explained all the misunderstandings to me... I'm sorry, Youqing, I kept saying I love you before, but at the most important moment I chose to escape...I..."

"Didn't you just say that, don't apologize." He interrupted Tang Tu's self-blame, "Forget it, let me talk about it. What happened that day was neither your fault nor mine. Of course, I understand that you are sad. I didn't notice it in time. But you have to understand me... I was really angry with you for a while, especially when I saw you moved all your things away when I got home." Ruan Youqing sighed, "I never I'm not that angry, because I have never had such expectations for anyone in the past, and naturally I will not be disappointed. I wonder if my attitude towards you is not clear enough, so you can't believe me. "

"No... Youqing, no... I just..."

"You just think that as an artist, I will get tired of the same, and I will pursue excitement and temptation." Ruan Youqing pouted, "You have a prejudice against artists."

"……Yes."

It was rare to see Tang Tu speechless. Ruan Youqing didn't feel any sense of accomplishment in her heart, but she couldn't bear it.

Tang Tu buried her head in his neck and said nothing for a long time.

Ruan Youqing looked around the room, this hotel was much older than the usual choice, probably because he had a temporary itinerary and couldn't wait for a more suitable one.

"Tang Tu...I'm not angry anymore, so don't blame yourself, okay. There's no need for this between us." He was really not good at comforting others, so he had to admit defeat. He knew that if he showed weakness, the other party would never let him have a little bit Difficult.But after waiting for a long time, there was no response except for the long breath in his arms. He looked down and saw that the man's brows and eyes were loosely closed, and he had fallen asleep leaning against him.

Tang Tu has always been devoted to his work, so he won't wake up easily when he relaxes at this time.Ruan Youqing took off his suit jacket lightly and carried him to the bed. After not seeing him for more than a month, the weight between his arms was obviously reduced a lot.He leaned against the bedside with another pillow in his arms and turned on the lost and recovered old mobile phone. There were a series of Tang Tu's messages on WeChat, from evening to early morning.

——Youqing, where are you, I have something to ask you.

——Youqing, I received the gift, it is very beautiful.

——Youqing, can you tell me after you turn it on, I have something to tell you.

--sorry.Youqing, I'm sorry.

——I'm sorry, it's my fault, please forgive me...

These words seemed to have a voice, as if he heard a person as proud as Tang Tu, from calm to almost pleading.This person seems to never be able to change the sense of humbleness and sacrifice in his relationship, which makes people heartache and angry.

But everyone has weaknesses, he loves Tang Tu, and even this point must be loved together.So he doesn't force the other party to change their appearance in just one or two years, and he can let go of those who are cautious and overly sensitive.

Tang Tu didn't wake up until dusk.

While he was taking a bath, Ruan Youqing went to buy smoked ham and risotto, and the hungry people couldn't wait to put the half-warm vegetable cream risotto in their mouths.

After the meal, he took out two boxes of ice cream and asked Tang Tu to choose the taste. The smooth and refreshing taste of the authentic Gelato was irresistible. Sure enough, after Tang Tu chose the rum raisin, he frequently looked sideways at the coconut flavor in his hand.

Ruan Youqing handed a spoonful to his mouth, watching him being swept away by the tip of the icy rose red tongue, half of the milky white ice cream was rolled in, leaving a little on his lips.

"What's wrong?" Tang Tu asked curiously when he saw that he had stopped moving halfway through eating.

Ruan Youqing didn't answer, and just stuck to him to clean up the battlefield around his mouth.

He licked his soft lips inch by inch, and after he wiped out the coconut smell hidden in the faint lines, he lightly licked in along the small airflow constantly escaping from the cracks in Tang Tu's lips.He stuffed the ice cream into Tang Tu's mouth spoon by spoon, and then slowly shared the food with him, until the other party almost choked on the messy panting and melting ice cream, he threw away the box in his hand, and kissed deeply.

Tang Tu hugged him eagerly, reached out and took off his hearing aid.

They rolled onto the quilt, and didn't even bother to draw the curtains.Ruan Youqing touched the control panel at the head of the bed and turned off all the lights.When the sight is restored again, they can see the night of Rome in each other's eyes.

They are destined to meet in this romantic city.

"Wait..." Ruan Youqing suddenly remembered something: "Don't take off your shirt."

There was only one shirt left on Tang Tu's body, which was left unbuttoned on his chest.

Ruan Youqing took out two strings of small things from the suitcase, snapped them onto Tang Tu's thighs, and clipped one end of the tie to the hem of the shirt.

"Hiss, what?" Tang Tu's scorching skin was aroused by the cold touch, and his whole body couldn't help shivering. He looked down and couldn't help but dumbfounded: "This...you made this new?"

Ruan Youqing stroked the cold butterfly lightly with her fingers: "Well, it's not new, it was originally a birthday present."

He followed the moonlight to look at the brand-new shirt straps. The black straps were adorned with several coquettish dark red glass butterflies, each of which lacked half of its lower wings, reflecting the shimmer with the smooth skin.

"It's as beautiful as I imagined." He sighed softly, and pushed away those fleshy legs.

Tang Tu looked at him with dazed eyes, Ruan Youqing's hand rested behind his waist through a thin shirt, and with hooked fingers, he could touch the tragically beautiful butterfly.

Since he was born in this world, he has always been compromising with the world.He doesn't like the feeling of having nothing to ask for, so he simply doesn't ask for anything.But this time, he wanted to raise his head to the world to ask for a sweetness, as a reward for all these years of obedience.

"Don't leave me again, okay?" Every movement of his got clear feedback.Tang Tu swayed with his rhythm, touched the back of his hand propped by his side, and tremblingly clasped five fingers between his fingers.

****

Their tears fused together, their sweat fused together, annoyance, guilt, and complaints came one after another, and they were dispersed by a steady stream of nostalgia and tenderness, and fled in a hurry.

Tang Tu used all his strength to hook Ruan Youqing's neck with his backhand, forcing him to bow his head and ears, trying to record the broken words into his incomplete hearing: "Ruan Youqing, I... love you. No, um... I won't leave .”

They fell down from the clouds together, Ruan Youqing was about to get out, but found that the person under him was breathing more quickly than before, his back was heaving violently, accompanied by the almost suffocating, more painful panting, intensified.

"Tang Tu?"

Ruan Youqing froze for a few seconds with numb hands and feet before suddenly realizing that it was acute hyperpnea.

He hugged Tang Tu and covered his mouth and nose with his hands, leaving only a tiny gap.

The real suffocation did not aggravate the symptoms. On the contrary, the breathing of the person in his arms was effectively controlled, and he gradually calmed down, and he collapsed under the quilt. After a while, his breathing became even, and Tang Tu fell asleep.

Ruan Youqing wrung out a warm towel to wipe away the messy tears and sweat on his face, and only then did he start to feel scared.
