The daily routine of being teased by a scholar

Xu Huaiyang kissed much more clumsily than Cai Zhan, rubbing back and forth like a puppy, with a little hesitation in his movements.

Cai Zhan wanted to interrupt him several times, but after thinking about it, he held back and let him continue pressing.After all, seeing Xu Huaiyang like that just now, if he interrupted him, he might be scared away if he managed to gather up a little courage.

After kissing for a long time, his face was almost warmed by his breath.Xu Huaiyang finally let him go, and tidied his clothes pretending to be calm.

"Let's go." He nodded with a calm face.

Cai Zhan smiled, watching him open the door leisurely, and then stumbled at the door.

The place Cai Zhan took was a coffee shop, not far from his home, on a street behind the community.Xu Huaiyang followed him, and was stunned when he saw the door of the coffee shop. He didn't expect that there were such shops around the old community.

The facade of this coffee shop is not big, with cute stickers on the brown framed glass door, and a cat's paw-shaped sign of the same color hanging on the door, with the words "Coffee Light Meals" written on it.

Pushing the door open, a gust of warm wind blows in.What I saw... was a head of blue hair.

Isn't this the pet shop owner?

Xu Huaiyang froze for a moment, before the shock was over, a few "meow meow" calls quickly diverted his gaze.

He glanced around and realized that the cafe was full of cats, and the nearest one was lying on a chair next to him.

Cat coffee?

"Brother Long," Cai Zhan walked over and smiled at Lanfa, "I brought my friends."

Brother Long squinted at him: "Table No. [-], I'll reserve it for you."

Cai Zhan nodded at Brother Long, and led Xu Huaiyang over.

The decoration in the cafe is very good, there are green plants everywhere, and there are cats everywhere.A message from the owner is written on the small blackboard next to the bar, saying that there are 23 cats in the store, all of which were adopted or rescued.

"This shop is also opened by Brother Long?" Xu Huaiyang sat down, watching a white cat swaggeringly jumped onto the chair beside him, "Didn't he run a pet shop?"

Cai Zhan took a menu: "His friend's shop, come here to suck cats."

Xu Huaiyang nodded "Oh", and stroked the big cat beside him, the fur was quite soft.

"What to eat?" Cai Zhan flipped through the menu for a while, then pushed the menu in front of Xu Huaiyang.

Xu Huaiyang was concentrating on stroking the cat, without even raising his head: "Look at it."

Cai Zhan looked at the person who was attracted by the cat, and clicked his tongue helplessly.

The two ordered a pasta and a chicken breast rice, and added a snack platter.After the simple meal was served, Xu Huaiyang tasted the meal and was a little surprised that a cat cafe could make such a delicious simple meal.

"Do you come here often?" Xu Huaiyang hurriedly finished his meal, and brought the cat over again, "Why didn't you call me for such a comfortable place near your house..."

Cai Zhan picked up the noodles with a fork: "I didn't know you would like to come."

"Isn't this nonsense?" Xu Huaiyang rubbed the cat in his arms, "It's a paradise for cat slaves..."

What Xu Huaiyang was holding was a big white cat, which was soft, like a fattened version of Big Black.I don't know if it's because Cai Zhan always comes to this store, there are so many cats around their table.

There was a young couple sitting at the next table. The girl looked at the cats around Xu Huaiyang and the two of them with envious expressions.

The boy was teasing and messing with cats, trying to get one for his girlfriend to hug, but unfortunately, none of the cats took any notice of him.

After the meal, when the waiter put away the dishes, Xu Huaiyang saw that the two had finally coaxed and tricked a cat owner, who was lying on the dining table for them to pet.

"How much hair do the cats here shed in a day..." Xu Huaiyang looked at it for a long time and sighed.

"Touched?" Cai Zhan asked.

Xu Huaiyang nodded, and saw that the big white cat had fallen asleep on the chair next to him just now.

"It would be nice to be a cat. You don't have to think about anything, and you don't have to do anything." Xu Huaiyang rubbed the cat's stomach lightly, and sighed, "I have thousands of pets in my body, and I can scratch my paws when I see someone upset..."

Cai Zhan smiled, and reached out to the waiter for the menu: "I thought so too when I was young."

It was dark outside, and the night wind began to blow.The two sat in the coffee shop, nestled in soft sofa chairs, surrounded by two or three cats.Outside the glass beside him, he could see the trees on the street swaying with the wind.

Cai Zhan ordered two cups of hazelnut mocha. The coffee was hot, and the thick layer of cream was sprinkled with cocoa powder and chopped nuts.

Xu Huaiyang held the cup and sighed comfortably.

"It would be nice if time could stop." He put the coffee cup on the table, sighed, and smiled.

"What?" Cai Zhan was stunned for a moment and looked up.

"I said, it would be great if time could stop." Xu Huaiyang looked at him, "This kind of warm, comfortable and very relaxing feeling... I used to be very envious."

Cai Zhan hooked the corner of his mouth: "There will be some in the future."

Xu Huaiyang lowered his head, looked at the half-drunk latte art on the coffee cup, smiled, and said nothing.

"Later" is too far a word.

The time spent with Cai Zhan was so pleasant that sometimes he forgot what it was like around him.Leaving here, this coffee shop, back home is still a lifeless house, a lifeless life.

It's too far away, who can tell clearly what will happen in the future?

Cai Zhan looked at Xu Huaiyang's sudden silence and didn't speak.

After a while, he put down his cup and shook Xu Huaiyang's hand under the table.

"What are you doing?" Xu Huaiyang came out of his thoughts and was stunned.

Cai Zhan smiled: "It's okay, just play for a while."

Xu Huaiyang was startled, nodded, and smiled.

Cai Zhan's hand was warmer than his own, and he was pulling it under the table. For some reason, it reminded him of the scenes in those martial arts movies where the heroes pass on their skills, passing their skills from one person's body to another through the palm of their hand...

"You're distracted again." Cai Zhan clicked his tongue,

Xu Huaiyang came back to his senses: "Huh?"

"You're always distracted when I'm talking to you," Cai Zhan sighed, let go of his hands, and sat up straight. "Is your imagination too wild?"

"This word is used well." Xu Huaiyang gave a thumbs up.

Cai Zhan glanced at him, stirred the cream in the cup, and said nothing.

The cat next to him fell asleep and made a series of cat purring sounds.The young couple at the next table just now also left, and there were fewer people in the coffee shop.

Cai Zhan looked at Xu Huaiyang, and suddenly spoke.

"Have you thought about the future?"

Xu Huaiyang froze for a moment, then shook his head.

After a pause, he said, "I don't think there is anything to think about. No matter how I think about it, it may not be realized. Take one step at a time..."

"I thought about it." Cai Zhan smiled.

"You want to talk to me about your life goals, or your future plans?" Xu Huaiyang leaned back on his chair, "Brother Yang, can you give me some advice?"

Cai Zhan looked at him and said nothing.

After a while, he said lightly: "You don't need to be an adviser, let's get involved."

Xu Huaiyang leaned on the chair and was stunned.

"But you're right, it's too early to talk about the future now." Cai Zhan seemed to realize that he spoke suddenly, took a sip of coffee, and said in a hesitant tone, "That's all I'm saying, don't take it too seriously. "

Xu Huaiyang looked at him, and suddenly didn't know what to say, so he said "hmm".

future?

The topics between him and Cai Zhan always seem to be on different lines, so when Cai Zhan mentioned the future just now, he didn't think about it. "Future" refers to the relationship between the two.

The word "future" is actually quite general. It can refer to one or two months from now, or it can refer to one or two years, five years or ten years.A little longer, he dare not say.

To be honest, he and Cai Zhan got off to a strange start.Xu Huaiyang has never been in love before, and he doesn't know how to do it.It was as if he had an epiphany in his heart, and suddenly found that he liked Cai Zhan, so he liked it and talked about it.

He said "be my boyfriend", and Cai Zhan became his boyfriend.

This kind of start... was too sudden.Cai Zhan seemed to have been waiting for his response, so he agreed easily.

In terms of time, maybe Cai Zhan expressed his thoughts on him earlier.But sometimes, he could sense the cautiousness of Cai Zhan when he got along with him.When he mentioned emotional matters, the tentative tone and look made him a little guilty.

For example, when he asked about the future just now, Xu Huaiyang felt a little uncomfortable with the sudden hesitation in his tone.

Too careful.

However, he really didn't think about the future of this relationship, so he couldn't reply.

Xu Huaiyang froze for a while, touched the cup, the coffee was completely cold.

He looked at the cup and said, "Maybe... I'm a bit selfish, I don't know what will happen in the future, so I don't want to imagine in the direction of the future."

Cai Zhan leaned on the chair and looked at him.

"I've never been in a relationship before, so I don't know if I should say such things." Xu Huaiyang hesitated, "I always feel that I am not qualified to talk about the future now. I like you and want to be with you, as far as possible Just move on, that's enough."

He paused: "As for where I can go, I don't know, but I will definitely do my best."

Cai Zhan narrowed his eyes.smile.

After a while, he sighed: "All right, I accept your explanation."

Xu Huaiyang clicked his tongue: "I didn't explain it either."

Cai Zhan smiled, feeling a little helpless.It seems unlucky to say such things at the beginning of a relationship.

He looked at Xu Huaiyang's serious face, thought for a while, and said, "Well, let's... keep it secret for now, shall we?"

Xu Huaiyang was startled: "What?"

Then quickly reacted: "Should the relationship be kept secret first?"

Cai Zhan nodded: "Don't tell anyone yet. It's fine for the two of us to know, okay?"

Xu Huaiyang hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

To be honest, this kind of confidentiality is quite uncomfortable.But, after all, it was Cai Zhan who mentioned it.

He suddenly remembered the time when he was eating crayfish... Is he minding the issue of homosexuality?

Afraid of being known?

He looked up at Cai Zhan, wanting to ask something, but held back.

"Then keep it a secret." He nodded, "I won't tell Fang Mian either, okay."

Cai Zhan looked at him for a while, not knowing what he was thinking, and agreed with an "um".

When I came out of the coffee shop, it was past nine o'clock, and I sat in the shop for more than three hours without knowing it.

The two were the last table guests in the store, and when they went out, the cats all returned to their cages.

The street lights in the old neighborhood were not very bright, and the road was terribly dark.There were not many people on the street, so Cai Zhan grabbed Xu Huaiyang's hand and stuffed it in his pocket, so that he could lead him to walk and keep warm.

It's a little different when I'm outside and when I'm in school.Xu Huaiyang looked down at the blurry road, and felt a bit like going back to the dormitory together after school, but it felt a little different.

There is no restraint, no teachers and student unions, no restrictions of a school uniform.

Cai Zhan walked beside him, feeling like "someone was with him on the way home", a feeling that he suddenly had a bottom in his heart.

Let's talk about it later.

The street lamp was dimly pointing in the direction of home. Xu Huaiyang's handwritten copy was in Cai Zhan's pocket. When he turned to talk to him, he suddenly found something shining under the street lamp.

Xu Huaiyang froze for a moment, then raised his head in astonishment.

"It's snowing." Cai Zhan also raised his head and said.
