almond

Kong Feicheng had long forgotten that today was her birthday, and only after hearing this sentence did she suddenly understand why Zuo Rong came over suddenly.

He kisses his lover affectionately.

"Zuo Rong, I love you."

He has read many poems, from Pushkin to Eliot, no great writer has ever taught him to express love so straightforwardly.But at this moment, he just wanted to tell the child his unadorned love story.

"I love you too, from the first meeting to the eternal sleep, until death."

They took a long kiss, as if in this kiss, it was enough to live a lifetime.

But when he woke up the next morning, Kong Feicheng felt that he was not so happy.My whole body is sore, and the worst thing is that I have to go to work today on Tuesday!

Fortunately, Zuo Rong cooked a bowl of long-lived noodles with plenty of ingredients and delicious ingredients to comfort himself, otherwise he really wanted to throw those who had no class this morning out of the window.

After breakfast, Zuo Rong thoughtfully drove him to work, sent him upstairs to the office, and asked if he needed to help him, but his calf was kicked.

Seeing the appearance of the two of them, the lady at the front desk knew them all at a glance, smiled and nodded to them, and sent a message in the company's female colleagues group after they left: "Consultant Kong has found a super handsome, super cold, little wolf dog boyfriend! Ah! !I am dead!"

She didn't know that the sister Zuo Mou, whom she made friends with after reading an article called "Luna", was the teenager's sister, and the prototype of this article was these two people.

He thought that being able to have a lover by his side would be enough to be happy in the new year, but when he got off work, he received a message from Zuo Rong.

"Zhu Qingyan is in the parking lot. He will take you to a place where I will wait for you."

He has never dared to have too much expectations for anything, but when he saw this sentence, his heart beat quickly, and he was looking forward to the surprise of his boyfriend.

After being with Zuo Rong, he gradually felt that he was truly loved.

Zhu Qingyan came over early and waited. His body has recovered very well, but there are a few scars left, one of which is across the bridge of his nose.This is in line with Zhu Zhu's wishes, and it looks more manly.

"Xiao Zhu, hello." He got in the car and greeted politely.

"Hey, brother-in-law, hello, don't be polite to me, just call brother-in-law!" Zhu Qingyan excitedly started Zuo Le's big bull, and the sound of the engine was pleasant.

"..."

Is it too late to jump?This guy has just been with Zuo Le for a few days, why did he get the air of a gangster? Where did that kind and upright boy go?

The car stopped in front of a space experience museum, which surprised Kong Feicheng, and was about to ask Zhu Qingyan if he made a mistake, but the other party put the car keys in his hand and rushed to the opposite side of the road The big G.

This license plate number really doesn't belong to Zuo Le.

"Daughter-in-law, how are you? Am I doing a good job?" Zhu Qingyan waited for praise like a dog when he got into the car, and almost wagged his tail.

"Great man, get out of here." Zuo Le pushed his head away, stepped on the gas pedal, and rushed to the next destination.

Kong Feicheng locked the car helplessly, looked around, and then a staff member came up to him with a smile and asked, "Is that Mr. Kong?"

"Yes." He put on that smiling business face.

The little girl was immediately confused, and blushed and said, "Please come with me."

He followed and walked inside, a little worried that Zhu Qingyan and Zuo Le were planning to join hands to sell him.

This kind of place has fixed business hours, and it closes at 05:30 in the afternoon, but now it is brightly lit inside, and there is no one there, which is really a little weird.

Fortunately, not long after he walked, he saw Zuo Rong smiling at him. Once the cold boy smiled, he could melt an iceberg, which made his heart tremble.

The teenager stood in front of a space capsule-shaped object and held out his hand to him.

He didn't think about anything, just passed his hand over and gave it to him firmly.In front of this person, he can let go of all hypocrisy and arrogance.

The two walked into the small space, but he felt a strong sense of discomfort as soon as the door closed.

weightlessness.

The feeling of not being able to put your feet on the ground is terrible. Animals living on land subconsciously reject such a situation. He frowned and wanted to find something to rely on.

There was a warm touch in the palm, it was Zuo Rong's hand that he had shaken countless times.

The young man exerted strength in his hands and easily pulled him into his arms. The two hugged each other tightly in the weightless environment, and the warmth from their chests quickly calmed the uneasiness in their hearts.

It's really amazing that emotion easily overcomes physiology, and he even has a feeling of happiness.

In outer space, there must be intelligent creatures. Maybe on some small planet, there are two beings clinging to each other like this.

A young man's gentle voice came from next to his ear: "Kong Feicheng, as long as you are willing to hand me your hand, I will always be by your side and give you all the sense of security you need."

The last piece of floating ice in his heart also shattered, and the glacier, which had been battered by wind and snow for many years, turned into a vast ocean, which was Zuo Rong's favorite blue.

Yes, I seem to be lacking in everything since I was a child, but I lack the most important love and sense of security, but outsiders can't see it, and I think I am a winner in life who was born at the finish line.

And this boy appeared when he was about to give up, his palms were warm, his chest was firm, and the light in his eyes was only for himself to see.

He told himself with practical actions, "You are loved, and there will always be me behind you."

The body is floating, but the heart is unprecedentedly at ease.

A few minutes later, the two walked out of the confined space. The moment they stepped on the ground, their bodies completely relaxed, but the temperature of their palms remained unchanged.Whether it is adversity or a smooth journey, the people who should be there are always there.

The two looked at each other and smiled without saying anything.

It was getting late, Zuo Rong seized the time and drove him to a farmhouse not far from here, where everyone was waiting.

There was an apricot grove on the way from the parking lot to the small villa. Zuo Rong took Kong Feicheng's hand and said to him, "The apricot blossoms are almost over. My sister said the red apricots here are very delicious, but the almonds are very delicious." Bitter. Not like you, which is sweet inside and out."

Fortunately, the sky was dark, and the blush on Kong Feicheng's face could not be seen clearly under the moonlight.

The villa looked dark from the outside, he didn't know what Zuo Rong brought him here for.

However, as soon as he opened the door, when he saw a group of people pushing the cake, he understood, and suddenly felt a little hot in the corner of his eyes.

My father stood in the middle and walked slowly pushing the dining car.Zuo Le, Zhu Qingyan, Zhao Yangyang, and Lu Renjie surrounded him and sang happy birthday to him.

Everyone's faces looked very kind in the candlelight, because of Zuo Rong, he gained more and more love.

He closed his eyes and made a wish earnestly. This was the first time in his life. He was very devout.

After opening their eyes and blowing out the candles, everyone applauded and cheered and turned on the lights.

Under the bright light, he finally saw the room clearly.Everywhere has been meticulously decorated, and it looks like a lot of work has been spent.

The three of 215 made a "Happy Birthday" together with golden balloons, and added a line of "ZRKFC" below it, but Zuo Le complained that it looked like a KFC advertisement.

The room is full of white flowers, such as peonies, wind chimes, hydrangeas, bellflowers, and even imported dahlias, which can be directly used as a wedding scene.

Candles and roses were placed staggered from the stairs to the room where the two of them will live tonight, so diptyque that it was hard to tell whether the aroma came from candles or flowers.

However, he still doesn't know that the room has been decorated by Zuo Le like a wedding room.

On the first floor, from the entrance to the living room, and then to the dining table, photos of him from childhood to adulthood are placed in casual places along the way, framed in exquisite photo frames.

The entrance is full moon, on the shoe cabinet is elementary school, on the wine rack is junior high school, on the coffee table in the living room is high school, on the TV cabinet is the lakeside of P University when he was an undergraduate student, on the bar counter is in Silicon Valley, and finally on the dining table he In front of his seat, he was standing by the sea.

It was a photo secretly taken by Zuo Rong during the Chinese New Year. In the photo, Kong Feicheng looked at the sea in a daze, but his eyes were slightly curved.On the beach not far behind him was a "lover" made of white shells.

Zuo Rong led him to the dining table, and said to him, "I made these with my own hands. Please warm them up for me. I also made the cake. I learned it a long time ago, but it's still a bit ugly. I hope you Don't worry about it."

"I like it very much, everything." He said it with sincerity.

The world is good enough, really, really good.

Zuo Rong cooks all his favorite dishes today, turbot fish in scallion oil, chicken wings baked with black truffle, beef stewed in red wine, fried scallops with garlic and butter, pineapple and lobster balls... the marinated du xian cooked in low heat is even more delicious. All spring comes together in this white porcelain bowl.

Zuo Le brought some ice wine from Ontario.Someone commented on this wine: "All the owners of the vineyard are always looking forward to the frost coming to the orchard in late autumn every year as if they were looking forward to love. The people who can taste the real ice wine are as rare as the people who can get the real love."

Zuo Rong and Kong Feicheng clinked glasses, they had both love and good wine.

Professor Kong started to drink a few drinks. Seeing his son's rare smile from the heart, as a father, the guilt and longing accumulated over the years surged together, and the corners of his eyes sparkled instantly.

"Feicheng, Dad wishes you a happy birthday. I didn't do well before and owed you too much. I hope everything goes well for you and Xiao Zuo in the future, and I hope you can give me a chance to make it up to you." After finishing speaking, he stopped Get up and raise your glass to your son.

Kong Feicheng smiled slightly, and also stood up, "Dad, I told you, it's not too late, it's not too late." After speaking, he clinked glasses with his father and drank it clean.

The conversation that only father and son could understand made Kong Wenxing's nose sour. Fortunately, he did not miss his whole life, and fortunately, his son was willing to forgive him.

Yes, it's never too late.

People who love you will always love you, and everything that should belong to you will come to you after going around.Waiting makes them all the more precious.

After the meal, Kong Feicheng personally cut the cake and distributed it to everyone.Zuo Rong is actually modest, his cake is very beautiful, after all, he consulted the Cordon Bleu pastry chef to make it.

The cake is made into an oil painting-like surface, which is simple and beautiful.

The lower half is sea blue, with ripples like waves, and the upper half is the white color of the cream itself.The surface is sprinkled with silver foil and pearl sugar, as well as pieces of golden almonds. On the upper left, there is a silver sphere the size of a bayberry, which is close to a perfect sphere, and there are inconspicuous bumps on the surface.

"The day you were born was No. 18 of the lunar calendar, and the moon is still very round." Zuo Rong explained to him.

As soon as he said this, he understood immediately.The whole cake looks like a night by the sea, the moon sprinkles its brilliance on the sea surface, and turns into fine light in the waves, the stars hang in the sky, and they are far away from themselves in the sea.

After cutting, you can see from the cross-section that among the two interlayers of the three-layer cake embryo, the upper layer is white mangosteen pulp, and the lower layer is roughly mashed blueberry jam, which echoes the color of the outer layer.

As usual, everyone kept the part of the moon for Kong Feicheng, and shared the rest.

The sweet and sour scent of mangosteen and blueberry makes this late spring and early summer night extraordinarily pleasant, and the blue cream has a little mint and jasmine flavor, which makes the flavor layer richer.

Kong Feicheng pointed at the silver moon with a fork, thinking to eat the chocolate first and then the cake, but the chocolate was so hard that it rolled down even though it was hard, and it landed on the wooden dining table with a muffled "boom".

The others followed the sound and looked at him. He smiled awkwardly and said, "This chocolate is so hard..."

"Pfft hahahahahahahahahahahaha! Let me just say it! Both of them look smart, hahahahahahaha! Rongrong, you said that he must know that this is not edible. Hurry up, you all give money, just now Don’t go back on your word if you make a bet, one hundred per person hahahahahaha!”

Zuo Le slapped the table and almost pouted with a smile, he stretched out his hand and waited for everyone to pay.

"It's platinum, not chocolate." Zuo Rong smiled helplessly, and took out a 100 yuan card from his wallet and stuffed it to Zuo Le.

Then came Zhao Yangyang and Lu Renjie, both reluctant. Zhu Qingyan tried to get away with it, but the female bandit directly withheld her wallet.

Then, Kong Feicheng saw that his own father also took out his wallet.

"You also bet with them?" He couldn't believe it. Is this still the old father who is a teacher?Being led astray by Zuo Le so quickly?

Professor Kong was a little embarrassed, "Father believes in your IQ." After speaking, he gave Zuo Le 100.

"..."

Sorry to disappoint you!

After the cake was eaten, everyone presented gifts one by one.Professor Kong gave him an exquisite She inkstone, Zhu Qingyan gave him a pair of tie clips with Zuo Rong, and Zhao Yangyang and Lu Renjie jointly gave him a tie. Room 215 should be neat and tidy.

Zuo Le stuffed a large box of presents into Zuo Rong's trunk, asking them to open them when they got home.

"What about your gift?" Kong Feicheng tilted his head and asked Zuo Rong with a smile.

"Come with me." Zuo Rong held out his hand to him.

Kong Feicheng handed over his hand, it was agreed, as long as you stretch out your hand, he will be there.

The two went to the terrace on the roof, where there was a small tea table, they sat down at the table, Zuo Rong poured him a cup of hot tea.

This year's newly harvested Mingqian Longjing is even more green and clear in a white porcelain cup, which is pleasing to the eye.The entrance is sweet and soft, relaxing the taste buds that were previously overly happy.

The two sat quietly like this, enjoying the moon while drinking tea, and the evening breeze brought a faint fragrance of apricot blossoms from time to time.

"Kong Feicheng, I'll give you the moon, okay?" Zuo Rong said suddenly.

"Then your gift is not sincere. I can't touch the moon in the sky." Kong Feicheng joked. In fact, he doesn't need anything. As long as this person is by his side, he can abandon everything.

"Then I'll give you the moonlight." Zuo Rong pushed over the brush-wash-shaped crystal container on the table. Inside was a puddle of water, reflecting the moon in the sky.

"Student Zuo Rong, your trick is too old-fashioned." Although he said so, he was still moved by this old-fashioned romance, and looked at the moonlight that the boy gave him.

Zuo Rong didn't refute, just looked at him quietly.

Kong Feicheng suddenly realized that something was wrong, he took a closer look, and found that there seemed to be a ray of moonlight blue floating in the transparent water.

He looked up at Zuo Rong, who motioned him to reach out and touch him.

The moment he touched it, he realized that it was a pure and transparent crystal, with a little light blue wrapped in it.

He fished it out of the water in surprise, and in an instant, it seemed to merge with the moonlight.

"This is the moonstone from Sri Lanka, also known as the lover's stone. It's too big to carry with you, so I just didn't process it and put it in our house as a decoration." Zuo Rong said and took it from the pocket of his trousers. Take out a velvet box.

"You once said that when the moon is sought after by many stars, you can't see their light at all, and the only thing that can attract your attention is the sun.

Then Your Highness Moon, I don’t know if I’m lucky enough to be your sun. "

Wrapped in black velvet, it is a men's ring inlaid with Norwegian sunstone. The shiny crystals are covered with golden particles. It really looks like a sun. Nuclear fusion is always happening inside, forming a dazzling light. and great heat.

His lips were trembling, and he stretched out his cold hand.

Zuo Rong took it gently, and put the ring on the middle finger of his left hand carefully. "After I graduate, I will exchange it with you for a better one. I hope to wear it on your ring finger then."

Under the witness of heaven, earth, sun and moon, they kissed quietly.
