be your cat

Zhao Yan said that he came to have a meal, but he really only came to have a meal. After all, he has to work overtime at night.

When sending him away, Shu Yi felt the emotion of reluctance for a long time, but when he thought that the two of them had agreed to have dinner together tomorrow night, he began to look forward to the time passing faster.

When Zhao Yan called, Shu Yi happened to be buying ingredients for dinner at the supermarket. When he saw the call, he couldn't help feeling a bit uneasy, wondering if he couldn't come due to something?

Recently, his relationship has been unexpectedly smooth, and he always feels that there is a big hole waiting for him in front of him.

Fortunately, after answering the phone, Zhao Yan on the opposite side just told him that he would be downstairs in about 5 minutes.

Shu Yi turned his head around, thinking that it would take seven or eight minutes to go downstairs from the supermarket, so he rushed back with two bags of ingredients, and happened to collide with Zhao Yan who was parking downstairs.

Zhao Yan looked at Shu Yi, who was running out of breath, with a slightly surprised expression: "Just came out of the supermarket?"

Shu Yi gasped and nodded: "You called just after buying it."

Zhao Yan took two big bags of ingredients from him, and said with a smile, "Then there's no need to run in such a hurry, I'll just wait for you downstairs."

Shu Yi waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, and then took out the access card to open the door.

The mirror in the elevator was spotlessly clean. From the mirror, Shu Yi peeked at the tall man standing quietly behind him with vegetables in his hand. It was still time to get off work, and suddenly there was a feeling in his mind. The husband and wife had the illusion of returning home, and their cheeks became hot.

Seeing Shu Yi lower his head suddenly in the elevator, Zhao Yan asked him, "What's wrong?"

Shu Yi was secretly laughing, and shook his head: "It's okay, it's okay."

Zhao Yan: "..."

Zhao Yan frowned slightly, thought for a while, and asked him in a very gentle tone: "Do I... make you nervous?"

"Ah?" Shu Yi was startled: "No, no..."

Zhao Yan looked at him with puzzlement in his eyes.

Shu Yi blushed and stammered: "I, I, I'm fine, I'm not nervous... I'm just, just..."

just happy.

He didn't know why, Zhao Yan just stood beside him quietly, and he felt very happy, but he felt very ashamed when he said this, Shu Yi could only prevaricate.

Fortunately, the elevator arrived at the door of the house soon, so Zhao Yan didn't ask any more questions.

After entering the door, the two of them went to the kitchen to put vegetables first. Shu Yi bought too many ingredients, and he definitely couldn't finish them today. Zhao Yan originally wanted to say that he didn't need to buy so much next time, but when he saw Shu Yi blushing and hurriedly cleaning up the kitchen, The deputy mouth is not nervous, but in fact it looks like he is about to have hands and feet. After thinking about it, forget it, and put the ingredients that can be placed in the refrigerator first, and eat them today if they can't hold them.

Shu Yi took out the long-sleeved apron for cooking from the cupboard. He had never used the kitchen except yesterday, and the aprons were brand new.

Holding the apron in his arms, Shu Yi happily jumped to Zhao Yan who was still packing the refrigerator.

His refrigerator is very full, filled with yogurt, bread and drinks, Zhao Yan has to put away the ingredients bought today.

Shu Yi looked excited: "What are you doing today?"

While tidying up, Zhao Yan took a look at the ingredients on the table, and asked: "The green vegetables will not be fresh overnight, and the fish can't be put away after being killed. How about making boiled cabbage heart and stir-fried water spinach? Then cook the fish in brown sauce." ?”

Shu Yi had no objection at all, just another thought: "Is three dishes enough?"

He intended to ask, but Zhao Yan was stunned for a moment, thinking that he didn't think it was enough, so he said: "Then let's make a chestnut roast chicken?"

Shu Yi: "Good!"

Now that it's good, let's start.

Shu Yi helped wash the ingredients, and Zhao Yan handled the fish and chicken.

The sound of water in the kitchen started to rattle non-stop. Xiao Yi, who was sleeping, heard the sound and came over, squatting obediently at the door, looking at them.

Shu Yi looked at Zhao Yan's skillful handling of ingredients, and couldn't help sighing, "You really know how?"

The knife looks professional.

Zhao Yan: "..."

Zhao Yan laughed and said, "Could there be a false chance?"

Shu Yi hurriedly shook his head, thinking about how to express it so that he could understand: "No, no, I mean, I didn't expect you to be really professional? I thought you were just...uh...amateur?"

Stir-fried vegetables are not surprising, he can make them himself, but they are not delicious, but he never thought of trying things like braised fish and chestnut roast chicken.

Zhao Yan cut the vegetables and smiled: "I was too busy before, so I went to study for a while."

Shu Yi was even more surprised.

Learning to be a chef?

Zhao Yan knew what he was thinking without turning around, and said: "At that time, I was very picky about eating, I didn't like to eat takeaway, I lived alone, and it was not worthwhile to hire an aunt, so I just made it myself."

Shu Yi let out an 'oh', and asked again: "Then why did you start eating takeaway again? I think you also eat out when you are free."

Zhao Yan kept chopping vegetables, and said flatly: "It's too boring to cook and eat alone."

Shu Yi was startled, thinking of the bread and yogurt in his refrigerator, he felt the same way: "Yes!"

Zhao Yan glanced at him slantingly, and saw that he had the same expression of a fallen man at the end of the world, and couldn't help teasing him: "Are you too boring to cook by yourself?"

Shu Yi: "..."

Shu Yi held a piece of washed ginger and said seriously: "Strictly speaking, cooking by myself is too unpalatable. Cooking alone is boring and unpalatable, so I don't even want to do it."

Zhao Yan smiled lightly.

Seeing him smile, Shu Yi gained a bit of courage, smiled and approached him, and said cheekily: "Then you come to my house to cook, you cook for me, and I will eat and drink for you and Xiaoyi!"

Zhao Yan stretched out his hand to turn on the fire, and looked at him with a half-smile in his eyes: "Then I didn't take advantage of you too much?"

Shu Yi shook his head like a rattle: "Mutual benefit, mutual benefit!"

Zhao Yan couldn't help shaking his head with laughter, feeling that both of them were miserable.

……

He said it was mutual benefit, but Shu Yi always felt that he was taking advantage of the sky. The family just prepared an extra set of bowls and chopsticks for Zhao Yan, but he could eat dinner and supper cooked by Chef Zhao himself every day.

Yes, and supper.

At first it was dinner, Zhao Yan came over after get off work every day, the two of them had dinner together, and then went back to work overtime.

But because Zhao Yan got off work at 05:30, the two of them finished eating at 07:30 at most, and Shu Yi felt hungry when he was lying on the sofa at eleven o'clock in the evening, so he asked Zhao Yan to make more for him, and Zhao Yan followed suit by the way. Take some ingredients from the refrigerator to make supper for Shu Yi, and then return to the company after finishing, and then work overtime until three or four o'clock, and then go home to rest.

Shu Yi watched Zhao Yan go out from downstairs and drive back to the company with deep worry in his eyes.

Since the two had dinner together, it goes without saying that Shu Yi was in a good mood, and Zhao Yan also seemed to be in a good mood. The two of them leaned on the sofa and watched TV together, chatting and laughing.

But Zhao Yan's mental state has not been very good.

He is so tired.

The procedures of the big project are complicated. Zhao Yan, as the person in charge, already has a lot of messy things to deal with, and the project has to work overtime, which is too exhausting. My mental state is still tense every day.

Shu Yi saw it, and when he thought that he could barely sleep for four hours a day, his heart ached terribly.

He wanted to say countless times in his heart, why don't you come here to rest at night?The house I rent is closer to the company.

But he always hesitated.

Because Zhao Yan had no hint of this at all.

Even if he worked until the next morning and had no time to sleep at all, he insisted on going home to wash up before returning to the company to continue working. It seemed that he had never planned to spend the night at Shu Yi's house.

After these days of getting along, the two of them have more or less cultivated some tacit understanding. Zhao Yan didn't hint at it, and Shu Yi didn't dare to act rashly, so he could only secretly feel distressed.

……

This afternoon, Shu Yi looked through the refrigerator and saw that there were not many ingredients at home, so he went out to buy some more. As soon as he finished buying, he received a call from Zhao Yan, saying that today's things were more urgent, and he might not be able to come over.

Shu Yi naturally understood, and asked again: "Then what do you have for dinner?"

The answer I got was 'take away'.

Holding the hung up phone, Shu Yi muttered, "I'm eating takeaway again."

He weighed the ingredients in the bag, rolled his eyes, and thought that he had stayed in the kitchen with Zhao Yan for so many days. Although he didn't learn most of the dishes Zhao Yan cooked, he could always try the simpler home-cooked dishes. try.

After it's done, can I deliver food to Zhao Yan today?

Shu Yi immediately jumped up, went home and found the gourmet app to pick two dishes and a soup, compared the ingredients, and found it feasible, so he called Zhao Yan and asked if he could deliver food to him today?

Zhao Yan was slightly surprised: "It's okay to deliver food, but... what kind of food do you want?"

Shu Yi was full of confidence: "If you do well, you will know!"

Zhao Yan was a little worried: "...then you should pay attention, I sharpened that knife of yours yesterday, and it is very sharp now."

Shu Yi: "Okay!"

He agreed with all his mouth, but he had no idea about the sharpness in Zhao Yan's mouth. He thought that he had never used that knife before, how sharp it could be, he was so careless about rivals in love that when cutting vegetables, his index finger, middle finger and little finger were scratched several times by the blade. They were all small cuts, not painful, but the skin was bleeding, so it had to be wrapped with a band-aid, and the visual effect was a bit tragic.

Shu Yi looked at his fingers and the two dishes and one soup that he worked so hard to cook, and thought it was worth it, so he happily went to the company with his lunch box.

He is now a former employee and cannot enter or leave the company building at will, so he called Zhao Yan at the front desk, Zhao Yan asked him to wait a moment, and came down immediately.

Shu Yi sat on the sofa next to him and waited quietly.

The lady at the front desk knew him. Although she wasn't familiar with him, she hadn't seen him for a long time, so she came over to say hello with a smile: "Why are you here today?"

Shu Yi smiled at him, raised the lunch box and said, "Send the meal."

The young lady was stunned, subconsciously gossiping: "Who are you giving it to?"

Shu Yi: "..."

Shu Yi became a little vigilant.

Everyone in the company knew that he had been chasing Zhao Yan for many years, and when he resigned, he was scolded and cried and left in embarrassment, so he didn't care what the company people thought of him.

But what Zhao Yan thought, he was not sure.

Would Zhao Yan mind?

After all, he is still working here, and he is not a real boyfriend now, and the act of coming to deliver meals, which is very courteous, always feels a bit unfair to him. If it is spread from the front desk, it will inevitably be discussed by others .

While he was struggling, the elevator door rang, and Zhao Yan, who was dressed in formal attire, walked out quickly.

Shu Yi suddenly became nervous. Although he had known Zhao Yan for so many years, every time he saw the handsome and tall Zhao Yan in a suit and leather shoes, his heartbeat would still speed up.

Compared to his nervousness, the lady at the front desk next to him was really shocked.

When she saw Shu Yi, the gossip factor in her mind quickly filtered through the possible candidates for Shu Yi to deliver the meal. The most likely and least likely was Zhao Yan who was walking towards them now.

The young lady is going crazy in her heart, shit, shit, shit!Mr. Zhao, who had been chasing after the company for several years without hope, was taken down by Shu Yi after he left? !The progress is so fast and now they are here to deliver food? !Could it be that the certificate has already been obtained? !

Zhao Yan walked over quickly, and was about to say that there was something to delay upstairs, when he saw Shu Yi winking at him nervously.

Zhao Yan was puzzled, so he turned his head to look at the young lady at the stage in front of him, and immediately greeted a pair of eyes that were extremely shocked and full of gossip.

Zhao Yan: "..."

Zhao Yan stretched out his hand and shook in front of the front desk: "What's wrong?"

She is a relative of the company's management and is fairly familiar with Zhao Yan.

The lady at the front desk hurriedly recovered her senses, and smiled awkwardly at the two of them, and then began to laugh with a deep meaning: "Both of you... ahaha, congratulations."

Shu Yi immediately blushed: "Congratulations! What a happy event, congratulations."

The receptionist was stunned: "Huh? Are you two still there? Uh..."

She was a little confused. If you want to say that the people in this company come to deliver meals, aren't they all the principals who have already received their certificates?How can the girlfriend come to deliver the meal?Uh... Boyfriends too... There are boyfriends, but Shu Yi shouldn't be the kind of boyfriend who should come to deliver meals, right?

The young lady at the front desk was confused and puzzled.

Shu Yi opened his mouth to explain, but at the moment he was nervous and didn't know how to explain, but Zhao Yan calmed down, reached out to take the lunch box in his hand, smiled and said to the lady at the front desk: "It's not time for congratulations yet."

The lady at the front desk suddenly realized: "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, because usually the wives who come to deliver meals are certified wives, so I..."

Upon hearing this, Shu Yi blushed even more, and said in a low voice, "What is it?"

Zhao Yan took his words and said, "We are just friends. He lives close to him. He knew that I worked overtime today, so he just sent me a meal."

Shu Yi's face instantly turned from red to white.

The lady at the front desk looked guilty: "I'm sorry, I saw you delivering food, and thought you had already..."

Zhao Yan interrupted him with a smile: "We are still friends now, I hope we can get closer in the future."

Shu Yi: "..."

The lady at the front desk smiled awkwardly and ran back to her seat.

Zhao Yan was about to send Shu Yi out, but at the door, Shu Yi grabbed Zhao Yan suddenly, and asked him puzzled, "You, what do you mean?"

Zhao Yan turned around: "Huh? What do you mean?"

Shu Yi said with some difficulty: "What are you talking about, why are you still friends now, and you can, you can take a step closer in the future..."

Zhao Yan stopped and looked at him.

Shu Yi's eyes gradually turned red. He could feel inferior in his heart, but when he heard Zhao Yan so easily positioned the relationship between the two of them as friends, he suddenly felt a great grievance in his heart: "I...I I have confessed to you so many times, don't you understand me, my heart?"

Why are you still friends now? I never thought of being friends with you.

Zhao Yan looked at him quietly, with a calm but firm voice: "I understand."

Shu Yi: "Then you..."

Zhao Yan looked at him, smiled, his eyes were full of tenderness, and said softly: "But I haven't confessed to you yet."

Shu Yi was stunned.

Speaking of this, Zhao Yan showed shame: "I understand your heart, I want to confess that this matter must be very important to you, I was not ready before, but after I think about it, I am already busy. So what I originally thought was to wait for this period of time to pass, take a period of time off, and prepare to solemnly confess my love to you, and then spend time with you."

Zhao Yan smiled wryly: "I can't just confess my love to you, then turn around and leave you to work overtime."

Shu Yi looked into Zhao Yan's eyes in shock, and it took a long, long time to digest this passage, and Zhao Yan stood in front of him, patiently waiting for him to recover.

After recovering, Shu Yi shook his head frantically, took Zhao Yan's hand, and raised his voice unconsciously: "I don't mind! Really! I don't mind these! You can confess to me now!"

He blushed and cried out with all his courage: "You confess to me now! I promise you now!"

"Then wait until you're not busy! Let's go out and play again!"

Zhao Yan smiled helplessly, and comforted him: "Shu Yi, Shu Yi, calm down, please, listen to me."

Where did Shu Yi calm down, his heart seemed to be burning on fire, and he was about to hear that sentence now!What Zhao Yan confessed to him!Want it now!

He is nervous and scared!

Zhao Yan took his hand and smiled: "Why, don't tell me I'll confess to you when I'm not busy, and you won't agree?"

Shu Yi's eyes were red: "No, I'm afraid that if you are not busy, you will regret not confessing to me."

Zhao Yan: "..."

Zhao Yan: "Do I look so heartless?"

Shu Yi lowered his head, tears unconsciously blurred his vision: "You don't know, I've been living like a dream during this time... I'm afraid that one day the dream will suddenly wake up, and you will return to your original appearance, yes I dismiss it."

Zhao Yan lowered his eyes slowly, opened his palm, and looked at Shu Yi's hand, which was slender and white, with three cartoon Band-Aids twisted around it.

Even though he deliberately told him, he still cut his finger.

Zhao Yan gently caressed Shu Yi's injured finger, and asked, "Does it hurt?"

Shu Yi rubbed the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, and said in a nasal voice, "It's okay, it didn't hurt at first, but it hurt a little later."

Zhao Yan said softly: "If it hurts, it's not a dream."

With tears in his eyes, Shu Yi said, "Yes, but it doesn't hurt too much..."

He mumbled blankly, and suddenly stretched out his hand to press the wound on that hand, wondering if squeezing it harder would make him feel more awake.

But as soon as he stretched out his hand, he was caught by Zhao Yan who sensed his intention.

Zhao Yan said lightly: "You don't need to try that."

Shu Yi raised his head and asked doubtfully, "Then how do we try?"

Zhao Yan stretched out his hand, stroked his cheek lightly, stared at him tenderly with his eyes, leaned his shoulders slightly, and slowly approached...

The young lady who was lying at the front desk peeping at the two talking, covered her mouth and hid behind the cabinet at the moment when the two figures overlapped, tears streaming down her face!
