Wu Xie took out a pair of earplugs from the bedside table and helped the young man put them on in the faint moonlight coming in through the window.

"What is this?" Zhang Qiling, feeling a little itchy, moved his head and asked.

Having something stuffed in his ears made him feel like someone was covering his ears, and the sounds from the outside world began to become blurred, as if separated by a veil.

The sounds made by the human body became clearer and clearer.

Zhang Qiling heard the sound of his heart beating, the sound of blood flowing through his veins, and the trembling of his pulse...

All these new and strange feelings made him frown uncomfortably.

"These are earplugs. They can block out noise." Wu Xie explained. Sensing his discomfort, he asked, "Don't you like wearing them?"

Zhang Qiling nodded. He couldn't hear the sounds from the outside world, which made him feel insecure. His nerves were unconsciously tense, so there was no way he could sleep.

"Then don't wear it." Wu Xie helped him take it off, and used his own hands to cover Zhang Qiling's ears, and asked: "Will it feel better if I cover it for you like this?"

Zhang Qiling was lying on his side, with the ear facing upwards covered by Wu Xie's calloused hand. The sounds of the world slipped in through Wu Xie's fingers.

It was still hazy, as if there was a layer of gauze between us, and I couldn't hear clearly...

Zhang Qiling held Wu Xie's snow-white wrist against his face, without letting go or pushing it away, thinking silently:

It’s really strange. It’s the same feeling, why is it that Wu Xie is enough?

Wu Xie's heart settled down. Fortunately, the young man held his hand relatively close to the front and did not touch the scar on his arm.

Pressing the slightly cool ears in his palms, his fingertips brushed across Zhang Qiling's hairy temples, Wu Xie said with a smile: "If you don't say anything, it means you agree~ Okay, I'm sleepy, good night."

silence,

Wu Xie yawned, moved his body, found a more comfortable position, and slowly closed his eyes.

I should be able to have a good dream tonight.

Day 2

The sky was quietly turning pale.

When Wu Xie regained consciousness, he felt a warm breath spraying regularly on his face.

My wrists also feel itchy, as if there are small insects crawling on them.

He half opened his eyes in a daze, and in front of him was the brother's huge sleeping face. He was startled and all the sleepiness disappeared. He jerked his head back, creating a distance between the two of them.

Maybe because he remembered to cover the boy's ears, Wu Xie slept very soundly that night, maintaining the same sleeping position.

But I don’t think I’ve ever been so close to you before?

Wu Xie secretly exclaimed how strange!

Zhang Qiling also woke up at this moment, his dark eyes staring at Wu Xie who was so close to him, without the slightest surprise.

Wu Xie was a little confused. Did this person wake up a long time ago, or did he not sleep at all?

He moved his stiff arms, and a tingling sensation quickly spread from his fingertips to his whole body. After covering someone's ears for a whole night, his hands were gloriously numb.

Wu Xie stretched his fingers and waited for the numbness to pass, while Zhang Qiling kept holding his wrist without moving.

"You haven't been catching people all night, have you?" Wu Xie asked, pushing him.

Zhang Qiling blinked twice to indicate yes.

The bottle of the gourd,

Wu Xie rolled his eyes secretly and cursed in annoyance.

Just forget about being lazy!!!

Zhang Qiling turned over Wu Xie's wrist, and placed two fingers, which were different from ordinary fingers, on the meridians on Wu Xie's wrist. With slight force, he helped him stroke the meridians from wrist to shoulder.

Straightened up,

The feeling of muscle stiffness and paralysis also disappears.

Wu Xie moved his fingers in doubt, "Huh? It's done!"

The sky is clear and cloudless. Today will be a good day, but also a hot day.

Wu Xie was brushing his teeth in the bathroom while using his wet hands to push down his messy hair.

With a mouth full of white foam, he suddenly remembered something and spat out what was in his mouth. Holding a toothbrush in his mouth, he opened the toilet door, leaned out half of his body, stretched his neck, and asked Zhang Qiling who was taking medicine at the desk anxiously: "Brother, did I snore last night?"

Zhang Qiling had his back to him and was taking the pills he was going to take out of the package. He shook his head when he heard this.

"Oh--"

Wu Xie nodded, bit his toothbrush and retreated to the bathroom, closed the door with a "click", brushed his teeth quickly, and while washing his face he was still thinking about what was going on with his snoring.

After finishing his cleaning, he leaned against the window with his arms folded, rested the back of his head against the wooden window frame, and stared at Zhang Qiling.

Zhang Qiling had finished taking his medicine and was sitting there in a daze. When he felt Wu Xie's gaze, he just glanced at him lightly, then looked away and cleared his mind again.

It seemed that if Wu Xie didn't take the initiative to speak, new stories would never arise between them.

well,

I wanted to ask if the guy slept well, but forget it...

Wu Xie felt a little tired, his smile was a little bitter, he stood up straight and prepared to go downstairs to find food.

As soon as he opened the door, Wu Xie suddenly heard the sound of a chair being dragged behind him. When he turned around, Zhang Qiling was walking towards him with big strides.

"What's wrong?" Wu Xie looked at Zhang Qiling in front of him, dumbfounded.

"Where are you going?" Zhang Qiling asked back.

"Go...eat."

Wu Xie watched Zhang Qiling pass him and open the door before him. He turned his head to look at the person who was still standing there and asked, "Can't I eat?"

The corner of my eye seemed to be twitched by something.

Wu Xie automatically added a pitiful and aggrieved filter to the young man, and immediately shouted loudly: "You can go! Of course you can go."

Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling went downstairs together and walked along Gushan Road. There were not many people by the lake in the early morning, and occasionally people jogging passed by them.

The sunlight shines on them, casting faint shadows.

It won't be long before the place becomes bustling with people as the temperature gradually rises throughout the day.

The crowds, the waves, the noise are overwhelming.

They found a breakfast shop and sat down. The owner greeted them warmly and spoke to Wu Xie in a familiar manner, complaining that he had not been there for a long time.

Those distant memories happened so long ago that Wu Xie racked his brains but couldn't remember the relationship between this person and himself. He could only smile awkwardly.

Gave him the nickname of a passionate breakfast shop owner.

It was peak time for breakfast shops, and the shop they were sitting in was packed, but their orders were served quickly.

Each person was given a complimentary tea egg.

Obviously, he received special care from the boss.

Wu Xie thanked them repeatedly and felt the warmth between neighbors as an ordinary citizen for the first time in a long time.
