Let me live [Quick Transmigration]

----

There are several stacks of large steamers piled high in the breakfast shop, snow-white steam puffs out, and the wind blows over with heat and the sweet smell of rice noodles.Lu You usually buys steamed stuffed buns and soy milk for breakfast at this store. When he is free on weekends, he comes to eat small wontons. The thin transparent skin is wrapped with a little meat stuffing. It has been boiled for several hours with pork bones and skimmed off. Rolled in the oil-slick clear soup, sprinkled with a little chopped green onion and shredded dried tofu, the appearance and deliciousness are beyond reproach.

The recent weather has been so hot that the sun just came out and there is a burning sensation. After eating a bowl of small wontons outside without air conditioning, you can sweat all over, but Lu You still can't help but come here often.You can also buy raw ones and cook them yourself, but the taste will always be worse.

Qi Zhengyun changed back to the black attire he had when we met for the first time today, but I don't know if it's the effect of familiarity, or the change of expression and posture that is not obvious in some details, his feeling to Lu You is still more similar to yesterday, Not so serious as to be intimidating.Lu You was a little surprised when he heard him mention the thesis yesterday, because the first impression Qi Zhengyun gave him was that he had been out of school for many years—although appearance has nothing to do with adjectives such as old and slippery, but a man There is an introverted temperament on his body, as if something heavy and cold is quietly precipitating in the dark, making people subconsciously think that he has had complicated experiences and should have a cold-eyed attitude towards world affairs.

But at the second meeting in the consulting room, this feeling almost disappeared.At this moment, Qi Zhengyun was greeted with a small ray of sunshine on his body with a smile in the quite lively background, which actually made Lu You feel that it is not impossible to describe that smile as hearty.

He is a little doubtful now, whether the initial impression of Qi Zhengyun was deliberately created by this person in order to appear more reliable during the interview - if not, Lu You can't help but think of some golden pots Washing his hands and starting a new life is not the right kind of plot. He looked at Qi Zhengyun who was sitting on a green plastic chair facing the empty bowl in front of him, and somehow wanted to laugh.

Lu You walked to the table and sat down opposite Qi Zhengyun. Seeing the cake crumbs and soup left by the previous customer on the table, he took out a tissue to wipe it, and responded to the boss's loud question in the store, "Eat what" question.Qi Zhengyun had already finished eating, and looked at him with his elbows propped on the edge of the table, as if he planned to leave without saying hello.The small wontons were quickly served, and Lu You even picked up the spoon. He hesitated under Qi Zhengyun's gaze, feeling that the atmosphere made him have to say something.

"...Why are you here again?" Lu You asked.

Could it be that he came here specifically for that "research"?It shouldn't be so hard to chase...

"Come here for an interview." Qi Zhengyun said with a smile, and after seeing the change in Lu You's expression, he added: "There is another interview subject who also lives nearby. I heard that the breakfast in this store is good, so I made a detour. Come over to eat."

Lu You didn't really want him to come here specially for him, Qi Zhengyun decided to slow down a little after realizing this.Some children of this age have great curiosity and longing for the adult world, and they will easily go astray when encountering inappropriate temptations; others respond with a hostile and disgusting attitude, as difficult to approach as a group of hedgehogs .And Lu You doesn't seem to belong to any of them, it's just that his overly familiar attitude makes him feel threatened and subconsciously avoids it.

take it easy.At least for now, the age difference should not be an obstacle.Qi Zhengyun crossed off the encounter plan that was originally planned to continue tomorrow, thinking that maybe it can be properly disappeared for a period of time after today?

Lu You lowered his head to scoop up a wonton, carefully lifted the spoon with half a spoonful of soup in it, brought it to his lips and blew.Qi Zhengyun found that he started to stare at his wrist, his lips, and his eyes at some point, following every small movement, the bones of the wrist were turning slightly under the skin... Then he moved his gaze down silently , fixed on the desktop that is still a little oily after wiping.Lu You didn't speak, Qi Zhengyun had nothing to say and said, "What were you watching over there just now?"

Before he made a sound to attract Lu You's attention, Qi Zhengyun saw him turning around and trying to chase something.He also noticed the breath of monsters—in fact, the breath of monsters was everywhere, and it was already difficult to use it as a standard for vigilance.

"There's a little black cat." Lu You said vaguely with something in his mouth.He doesn't have the good habit of "eating without talking".Qi Zhengyun thought it was cute, and then told himself to restrain himself again. "Do you like cats?" he asked curiously.Lu You had a long-term mission before. When they lived together, Lu You did not show any special love for small animals—as a fox, he was terribly afraid of dogs, and when he heard a dog barking, he would reflexively embrace him. hide in.

Lu You swallowed what was in his mouth, and took another spoonful of soup to drink. "It's okay." He said casually, "That cat is too small, it seems that it hasn't been weaned yet, and there are no big cats around, I'm afraid it won't be able to survive outside..." Recalling the time scene, and added with some doubts: "But it runs very fast, maybe it's just born with a small body."

Or maybe it wasn't a cat at all, Qi Zhengyun thought to himself.He thought of an example written in Huihui's notebook: a monster that meows while hiding under the trash can on a rainy day, if someone takes it home as a poor kitten, the monster will be preyed on like this allowed.After a well-meaning person falls asleep at night, the monster will penetrate the body through the mouth and eat the body until only the outermost thin skin remains.

In Qi Zhengyun's opinion, this kind of monster with a deceptive appearance is much more difficult to deal with than the fierce type that can attack directly - especially now that he and Lu You are not very familiar with each other, and he is not qualified to influence Lu You's decision when.

There is always a danger that cannot be guarded against... Whenever Qi Zhengyun thinks this way, an urge to try to eliminate all possible dangers arises in Qi Zhengyun's heart, and every time he has to work hard to suppress this urge.Because if you think too deeply, excessive behaviors such as following closely and monitoring closely will become necessary and full of temptation again.This tendency is enough to make Qi Zhengyun vigilant: he doesn't want to repeat the same mistakes so soon.

Qi Zhengyun's fingertips on the edge of the table touched each other, and they shook lightly. "If it's really a kitten that hasn't been weaned, it's best not to touch or scratch it casually." He said nonchalantly, "If the mother cat just left temporarily, she might abandon her if she finds the smell of humans on her body... …Also, cats that are too small are hard to keep.”

Lu You raised his head and looked over, Qi Zhengyun thought for a while, and took out the pen and notebook he was carrying with him—since he disguised his identity to interview graduate students who were running around, he naturally brought all the equipment that fit the personality with him. By his side - wrote a series of numbers on the last blank page of the notebook, tore off the paper and handed it to Lu You. "This is my mobile phone number." He said, "If you really found a kitten or puppy, you can call me and ask me. I know a little about it."

Lu You took the paper, glanced at the number on it, folded it inward, and smiled strangely at Qi Zhengyun as if he knew the real purpose of Qi Zhengyun. "Are you going to say next..." He put the small piece of paper between the index finger and middle finger of his left hand, and raised it towards Qi Zhengyun, "If I want you to do that 'research' anytime, I will also give it to you." You call?"

Qi Zhengyun really didn't think about it that way.He froze for a moment, saw the tension hidden under Lu You's smile, and finally realized that no matter how calm Lu You behaved, family was not a topic he could easily handle.Even in the future when all knots in his heart have been untied, he just buried the past that had the deepest influence on him with a completely silent attitude, ignoring it as if he had forgotten it... That's why he was overly vigilant about it , Anything that happens will want to be connected.

But Lu You, who made such a guess, didn't feel angry, this is what Qi Zhengyun could see from that smile.So after a moment of silence, he finally decided to play a hateful guy who was exposed but didn't feel guilty, showing a slightly regretful smile. "Did I act too impatient? I hope I didn't annoy you." He said with a smile, acquiescing to Lu You's guess, "However, what I just said is also true. If there is anything I can help, I must tell me."

He blinked, "How about an advance thank you?"

Are you that sure I'm willing to say it?Lu You wanted to ask this question, and then remembered that he seemed to have promised last night.He held back for a while, looking at the smiling face of the man across from him who seemed to have succeeded in his plan, he had nothing to say, so he simply stuffed the piece of paper into his pocket, bowed his head and continued to eat the small wonton.

Qi Zhengyun held back a low laugh, lest he really annoy Lu You.The sunlight moved a certain distance, and a small half of Lu You's side, which was originally under the shade, was also shrouded in sunlight.Lu You's skin is fair, and when his peers were staying up late to study and troubled by acne, his face was always clean, and when the heat evaporated, it almost had a crystal-clear texture.Qi Zhengyun watched him blowing and eating, a small bead of sweat leaked from the bridge of his nose, his cheeks were slightly reddish from the sun, and he would squint his eyes from time to time in the light.He didn't seem to notice that Qi Zhengyun was looking at him this time, maybe he didn't want Qi Zhengyun to know that he was aware of it, so he didn't raise his head so that the two people's eyes met.

After vigorously hypnotizing himself to cool down the hot emotions in his heart, Qi Zhengyun felt a kind of peace under the scorching sun.You are here, he thought as he looked at Lu You, truly existing within reach.This thought opened a gap in the shell that enveloped him, allowing the surrounding light and colors to gradually become more vivid.His shoulders moved slightly, as if a heavy burden had finally been lifted at this moment.

After Lu You drank the last sip of soup, when he looked up again, he saw Qi Zhengyun opposite him with his eyes blank and a soft smile with an unknown meaning on his lips.He trembled for some reason, as if he had seen something he shouldn't have seen.Qi Zhengyun came back to his senses very quickly, and stood up slightly following Lu You's movements. "Going back?" he asked.

"... I'll go back after a short walk." Lu You said.He put his hands on the edge of the table, as if hesitating.Qi Zhengyun waited patiently for a while, until he heard Lu You say in a low voice, "The matter of my family...it's a bit complicated to say. Let me go back and deal with it first." He glanced at Qi Zhengyun with complicated eyes. Emotion, "I'll call you when I think it over."

"It's fine if you just want to chat." Qi Zhengyun blurted out.Seeing that Lu You just smiled and didn't take it seriously, I don't know whether to be glad that the real purpose was not discovered, or regret that Lu You never thought of "being pursued" in this direction.Speaking of which... Lu You now knows that he can also like men?Or, is this also one of the homework he should work on?

Qi Zhengyun suddenly felt a sense of urgency.He no longer stubbornly insisted on going with Lu You even for a walk. Instead, he said goodbye to Lu You in front of the breakfast shop under the pretext that the time agreed upon for the interview was approaching. , sneaking around back.

When Lu You's figure reappeared in the field of vision, Qi Zhengyun seemed to see a shadow passing by the edge of the field of vision quickly, and when he turned his head to look for it, it had already disappeared.Lu You's footsteps in front of him paused, and he turned back as if he felt something. After a while, with a confused expression on his face, he continued to walk in the direction of the small shaded park where he wanted to take a walk.
