Snow country

Just after hanging up the video call with his parents, the doorbell rang.Zhang Xiao stood up slowly, only thinking that he probably had a good understanding with this visitor.

The moment he opened the door, he thought he would meet those sparkling eyes, but in fact his face was covered with plastic bags.He held the plastic bag in both hands in a daze, and sighed softly.He is not much shorter than Xuesheng, isn't it Xuesheng himself who is tired from lifting so high?He turned sideways to let Xuesheng enter the room: "Senior, I told you that you don't need to buy anything."

"That can't be done. Isn't today a big holiday? Of course I want to come and accompany you." Xuesheng skillfully changed the slippers.He took out the red envelope from his pocket and handed it to Zhang Xiao with a smile, "Happy New Year's Eve. Keep it, I'm also your elder."

Zhang Xiao blinked blankly.This place was only the Spring Festival in the old calendar, and the two hadn't been dating for a long time during the New Year's Eve in the Gregorian calendar. Zhang Xiao also had no idea about whether to give red envelopes, so he didn't care.Putting the bag full of fruits, vegetables and meat on the ground, he opened the red envelope and took a look, and there was a brand new [-] yen note inside.

The amount was larger than expected, which made Zhang Xiao a little at a loss.However, before he could speak, Xue Sheng had already pulled out the induction cooker from the cabinet: "Okay, I know what you're thinking, don't reject me, okay? It's just a thought."

Zhang Xiao pursed his lips, quietly looking at Xuesheng's figure.Xuesheng was taking apart the vegetables he bought little by little, and stacking them neatly in the pot.His movements didn't look so skilled, with a rare clumsiness, which made it impossible to imagine that these hands could quickly make perfect and beautiful surgical knots on weekdays.Zhang Xiao knew that Xuesheng was an intern in a big hospital, and he was supposed to be on duty tonight.

Even though he had heard about Xuesheng's busyness from others, Zhang Xiao was secretly selfish once, accepting Xuesheng's proposal and rejecting the invitations of friends who celebrated the New Year together last year.

"Xuesheng," this was the first time Zhang Xiao called Xuesheng by his name directly, "Thank you."

Xuesheng's chopsticks paused.He raised his head and smiled at Zhang Xiao: "Thank you? I want to accompany you. Sit down, don't do anything today, just eat and chat."

Zhang Xiao couldn't help laughing along with him.He nodded and sat cross-legged opposite Xuesheng.

Staying with Xuesheng is like having a new shelter in a foreign country.

After eating hot pot, they didn't even bother to wash the pot, so the two snuggled together and watched the Spring Festival Gala.He clearly couldn't understand it, but Xue Sheng took it more seriously than Zhang Xiao.Zhang Xiao glanced sideways at Xuesheng's excited expression, and couldn't help laughing: "Senior, can you really understand what these sketches are talking about?"

"You can understand a little bit. Don't underestimate the IQ of your senior. After I met you, I went to learn Chinese." Xuesheng turned his head, and even the corners of his eyes were filled with smiles, "Your name, Zhang, Xiao, Right? Is it much better than before?"

Zhang Xiao nodded honestly.The pronunciation of his name is not in their pronunciation system, and he has long been used to the students around him calling his name in various strange accents.The person in front of him was originally one of those people.

But now Xuesheng can call him with the real pronunciation of his name.Thinking of this, Zhang Xiao felt that the soft place in his heart was lightly poked by Xuesheng.Under the quilt, he lightly hooked Xuesheng's fingers.Xuesheng turned his head and raised his eyebrows in surprise, but in the next second he took Zhang Xiao's hand completely in his palm: "Xiao, if you do this again, I can't guarantee that nothing will happen, okay?"

It doesn't matter what happens, there is everything at home.He complained in his heart, but Zhang Xiao suddenly remembered something.After signaling to Xuesheng, he got out of the quilt and dug out a key from the drawer.He knelt on the bed and put the key in front of Xuesheng almost reverently.He lowered his eyes slightly, for some reason he was afraid to look into Xuesheng's eyes: "This...is the spare key for this room. Although it is far away from the school and the hospital where senior practiced, but..."

He couldn't finish the sentence.The cold metal in the palm of his hand disappeared, replaced by the man's embrace.The man's head gently rubbed against his cheek, his voice was very soft: "Xiao, why are you so nice?"

Zhang Xiao hugged Xuesheng back somewhat at a loss, he didn't think he had done anything extraordinary.Xuesheng gave him the house key, so regardless of his own conditions, he also wanted Xuesheng to have the opportunity to freely enter and exit his private space.

He can't be as reckless as Xue Sheng, but at least he has the same firmness.

Is it his illusion?He seemed to feel a wetness on the side of his neck.He froze for a moment, but in the end he didn't say anything, but hugged Xuesheng's back even tighter.

If the elves are discovered by others, will they not be able to become elves?If that's the case, then he can't see it.

Calculate the time, if you really wait until the Chinese New Year's Eve, it will be too late.Zhang Xiao pushed Xuesheng who was obviously sleepy: "Senior, it's late, you should go back first."

"Are you going to drive me away?" Xue Sheng turned to look at Zhang Xiao innocently.

"No..." Why do you feel that Xue Sheng is more clingy than before?

"It's too late, it's snowing so much outside again." Holding Zhang Xiao's hand, Xuesheng's fingers rubbed against Zhang Xiao's wrist bone.He raised his head and blinked at Zhang Xiao with a smile, "Can I stay with you tonight?"

Is it snowing a lot?Zhang Xiao looked out the window in a daze.What accumulates on the side of the road is only a thin layer of snowflakes, which will not hinder traffic, and holding up an umbrella can avoid embarrassment.Although it is a bit remote here, it is still considered an urban area, and the trams will run until late at night.

But just at this moment, he was distracted, and he was dragged down by Xuesheng.Feeling dizzy before his eyes, he was pulled into his arms by Xuesheng.Leaning half of his body on Xuesheng's lap, he turned his head in a daze, and met those eyes suddenly.It's hard to describe the color in Xue Sheng's eyes, it seems affectionate, deserted, and sentimental.

But why do you need to say things so carefully?As long as he wants to believe it, then everything Xue Sheng said is true.Thinking of this, Zhang Xiao raised his head and gently stroked Xuesheng's cheek: "There is no extra quilt at home, senior can only sleep with me."

"I can't wish for it." Xuesheng lowered his head and rubbed the tip of Zhang Xiao's nose.

"You said you would do nothing today."

"That's right," Xue Sheng closed his eyes, the smile still glistening on the corner of his lips, "I'll cover the quilt today and just chat."

They didn't even finish the party at all, just turned off the lights and leaned together.

"Xiao, I'm graduating soon." Xuesheng fiddled with Zhang Xiao's hair, "I really have to go back to Akita Inheritance Hospital as they said."

Zhang Xiao blinked, he didn't know how to answer, he could only ask stupidly: "Can I be the dean once I go back?"

Xuesheng was amused by Zhang Xiao and laughed: "No, of course we have to start from the bottom." After a pause, he added, "Under everyone's gaze, there can be no mistakes."

He is not happy.In the dark night, Zhang Xiao opened his eyes.He was about to say something, but was interrupted by Xue Sheng lightly: "Does Xiao want to be the dean's wife?"

Zhang Xiao pursed his lips.Xuesheng asked the same thing before.But in fact, at that time, he wanted to say that no matter what Xuesheng's status was, as long as Kitazawa Xuesheng was by his side, it would be fine.

But he didn't say it.Feeling the rise and fall of Xuesheng's chest, he said slowly: "Does senior like Tokyo?"

"I like it." Xuesheng replied without hesitation, "This place is very big, and even one or two abnormal people can be completely tolerated. There are many people, but everyone's gossip will not be right Be interested in other people's affairs."

Sure enough, no matter where you change to, you will have similar troubles.Following Xuesheng's example, he rubbed Xuesheng's chest: "I like this place very much too."

Xuesheng didn't answer.After a while, he said softly, "Why do you keep using honorifics to me?"

"I thought you cared a lot about this kind of etiquette."

Xuesheng sighed, but did not pursue this point further.As if to appease the beloved cat, Xuesheng followed Zhang Xiao's back: "It's a pity, we can't set off fireworks now."

so suddenly?Ah, is he talking about the New Year's Eve fireworks?It's a pity that fireworks are not allowed in most cities now, and the excitement of the Spring Festival has long since disappeared.But unwilling to spoil Xuesheng's interest, Zhang Xiao just replied softly: "But in summer, you can see it here."

If it's summer, I can watch fireworks with Xuesheng.

Xuesheng was silent for a while, and relaxed a little to make Zhang Xiao sleep more comfortably.He leaned over and kissed Zhang Xiao's face: "Happy New Year, good night."

His voice was hoarse and deep, so sweet that it made Zhang Xiao feel drowsy and sleepy.

Snow elves are warm.Warm.

Thinking about it, Zhang Xiao shrank into Xuesheng's arms and closed his eyes.

The author has something to say: Zhang Xiao called Xuesheng "senior" or "Xuesheng mulberry".

This is the first time he called "Yukio" directly without adding any title suffix.

Xuesheng called Zhang Xiao "Xiao" or "Xiaojun", which is the pronunciation of the Chinese characters themselves.

This is probably a little easter egg for friends who know Japanese titles.
