God-level giant, forced to raise cubs

After all, it is the annual New Year's Eve Carnival. There are many people near the shopping mall and the central square, and the bustle and bustle together weave into a prosperous and prosperous world.

In the small shop where photoshoots were made, the boss brought them to the photo machine and muttered strangely, "You two boys want to take photos together?"

She has been in the shop for so long, and she has seen many young couples come to take pictures of couples, and she has also seen girls bring their little friends and best friends over to take pictures.

And boys, basically come alone.

It was rare for her to see two boys taking pictures together, and she was a little surprised that they were such handsome two boys.

When Chi Xi heard this, he felt embarrassed, so he kept a stern face and said nothing.

"That's right." Xiao Qingluan admitted generously, "I want to try, but I can't take so many photos by myself."

"Oh, I just think it's quite rare, so just ask. You two go in and take a photo, and I'll choose a photo for you after you take the photo."

"Okay, thank you, Auntie." Xiao Qingluan nodded to him, and led Chi Xi into a small, blocked space.

Chi Xi stood silently beside him, facing the camera machine, still silent and refused to speak.

"Chi Xi," Xiao Qingluan stopped him, and asked uncertainly, "Are you... just shy?"

"No." Chi Xi firmly denied it, and his words were particularly lacklustre.

"Pfft—" Xiao Qingluan smiled, eyes narrowed into two crescents, and said softly to him, "There is no need to be embarrassed, if she asks, just say that we are good friends."

Chi Xi said sullenly, "I don't want to be good friends with you."

Although "good" was added in front of the friend as a modification, Chi Xi was still not satisfied.

His meaning was obvious, but Xiao Qingluan deliberately pretended not to understand.

"I don't want to be friends, what do you want to be?" Xiao Qingluan looked sideways at him with a smile on her brows, waiting quietly for Chi Xi's answer.

Chi Xi's skin was thinner than he imagined, his eyes dodged and he muttered softly, "...boyfriend."

The smile in Xiao Qingluan's eyes deepened, with obvious playfulness.

"Someone seemed to be talking just now, but I didn't hear clearly." Xiao Qingluan turned to the front, as if nothing had happened, and greeted lightly, "Come on, let's take a picture."

"Hey!" Chi Xi, who had been teased, became irritable, "You obviously heard that!"

"I've already chosen the photo frame, let's look at the camera." Xiao Qingluan took the topic lightly, "You said you wanted to take a photo, hurry up."

Chi Xi immediately turned back and took a photo with Xiao Qingluan cooperatively.

In this shop, you can take [-] photos for [-] yuan.

Xiao Qingluan is not very interested in taking pictures, but instead thinks it is more fun to choose photo frames to make Chi Xi cute and cute.

As a result, when the photos were printed, Chi Xi's alone photos accounted for more than half, and the rest were almost all group photos. There were only three photos of Xiao Qingluan.

Xiao Qingluan picked out her favorite group photos and most of Chi Xi's single photos, and handed the rest to him.

"Here, half of each person, so you don't have to look at that photo." Xiao Qingluan told him.

"How do you know?" Chi Xi was shocked.

He thought he hid it well, so he quietly stole the photos from You Qingluan's phone, then secretly printed several photos, and put them in his wallet...

Chi Xi thought that You Qingluan didn't even know about this!

"I saw it when you took out your wallet just now." Xiao Qingluan blinked and discussed with him seriously, "Can you change that photo?"

Xiao Qingluan didn't like that one very much.

At that time, he was weak and helpless, with no self-protection ability at all. He resigned himself to his fate and waited for his fate.

For Xiao Qingluan, this is the same as Chi Xi's second period of middle school, it is a dark history that she doesn't want to reveal.

"I don't!" Chi Xi refused without thinking.

Xiao Qingluan didn't speak, she pursed her lower lip, and stared at Chi Xi with wide eyes, with a hint of accusation in her eyes.

Chi Xi's stand was very firm, but after being stared at by him for a while, he wavered helplessly.

"Okay, I'll put it in another place." Chi Xi rummaged through those photo stickers helplessly, found a picture of Little Qingluan that he asked to enlarge, and carefully put it in his wallet.

Although Xiao Qingluan felt that the behavior of putting her photo in her wallet seemed to be out of track with the times.

But after thinking about the current year, he finally accepted Chi Xi's behavior without saying anything.

The two walked out of the small shop where the photos were taken. Jing Yuxuan and Ma Hao, who had finished taking photos ahead of schedule, had already walked around and waved to them from the railing on the fourth floor.

"Xihuang, come up and choose a gift for my father!" Jing Yuxuan desperately waved at him, "Come quickly."

He has a loud voice and is born with a unique talent for comedy, which made many people crane their necks to watch.

"Shut up." Chi Xi frowned and cursed, and said in a rough voice, "Wait there."

The fourth floor of the shopping mall sells men's clothing, Chi Xi went up and found that most of the students in Class Nine gathered around to collect money.

"My mother came out and gave me 20. Just now it cost [-] to clamp the doll, and now there are less than [-] left." Ran Tingting counted, then turned to her friend and asked, "Hey, how much do you have?"

"A dozen dollars... I knew I wouldn't have clipped the doll just now." The girl said dejectedly.

"All the money on my body is borrowed from Xihuang." Jing Yuxuan scratched his head, and said embarrassedly, "You count it for me first, and I will borrow some from him when Xihuang comes up."

"What gift do we want to buy for Teacher You? I saved some money from part-time jobs." Ma Hao said, took out his wallet from his pocket, counted it, and asked generously, "Is one thousand enough?"

When Chi Xi came up and heard this, he snatched Ma Hao's wallet, took out a full bill from it, and threw it back.

"Keep it for yourself, go back and buy something for your parents." Chi Xi walked between them and said, "Why do you suddenly want to buy something for him?"

Several classmates were surprised when they saw Xiao Qingluan, and they answered after saying hello to him.

"Teacher You has been with us for so long, and it's finally a big festival. What should we give him?"

"That's right! It was supposed to be given on Teacher's Day, but our class has never celebrated Teacher's Day, and he didn't think of it, and he didn't mention it himself."

"The New Year is coming soon, and everyone is thinking of preparing some gifts for Mr. You."

"But our class came up with an impromptu idea. Everyone was crazy for a long time just now, and the money they brought is almost spent." Zhu Ran spread his hands and said awkwardly, "We pooled together, and now it's only more than 300 yuan. "

In fact, more than 300 yuan is not a lot. Other classes give gifts to teachers on Teacher’s Day, and they only cost 50 yuan if they are exhausted.

But obviously, You Qingluan is different from other teachers in the class.

Can 300 yuan send him away?

No, it is barely acceptable to add a 0 at the end.

When Chi Xi heard this, he asked calmly, "So, what are you going to buy?"

"I was going to buy clothes, but he might not like the clothes we chose. And we don't know what size he wears."

"So we discussed it and decided to buy him a watch." Zhu Ran said, "Think about it, every time we see Mr. You, he always brings his own watch."

"Ah..." Xiao Qingluan called out, remembering about that watch.

It is said that Mr. Chi, an art student in the past, worked with the top designers of the whole company on the design for three months before he came up with the global limited edition and gave it to You Qingluan as a birthday present.

It is also said that Mr. You later pawned him off and only got 35 in exchange.

Because of this, Chi Xi was depressed for a long time, repeating a few sentences every now and then.

Fortunately, You Qingluan brought back that watch recently, and Mr. Chi finally changed his direction.

"Do you think he would like that watch?"

"Sure enough, that watch is the best watch for a boyfriend."

"Is it too late for me to design this year's birthday present?"

You Qingluan hasn't taken off the watch since he put it on again, so he must attach great importance to it.

At this time, his students will also send him a watch. If Mr. You will replace the original watch after receiving it...

Xiao Qingluan felt a little distressed, he didn't want to hear Mr. Chi shut up anymore.

"Don't buy a watch, it sounds like giving him a funeral." Chi Xi casually found a reasonable reason and dismissed everyone's thoughts.

Mr. Chi after an era? ? ?

what to give?

Can you say that again!

Chi Xi looked around, thought for a moment, and said to them, "Why don't you just buy a wallet?"

"Oh, yes! The wallet can also be used every day. Speaking of which, Teacher You doesn't seem to have a wallet."

"Hmm." Xiao Qingluan knew that in that era, he basically didn't use a wallet anymore, so of course he wouldn't use such a cumbersome thing.

"Okay, okay, okay!" Jing Yuxuan raised his hands and feet in agreement, "After buying the wallet, our class can take a group photo and put it in his wallet like Xihuang did."

"Good idea." Others thought it was good too.

"Wait, are there any photos in Xihuang's wallet? Isn't this something he did after he fell in love? Whose photo did he put?" Ma Hao asked a series of questions.

"No, he got it wrong." Chi Xi firmly denied it.

"Obviously there is! I didn't see it clearly just now, let me see it again!" Jing Yuxuan said, and took out Chi Xi's wallet neatly.

As soon as he opened it, Chi Xi snatched the wallet back and whipped him twice by the way.

"Look at that!" Chi Xi said violently.

"Oh!" Jing Yuxuan covered his butt, howled twice, and said aggrievedly, "Xihuang, although I still can't see clearly, this one is different from the one just now, don't tell me you're stepping on two boats. "

"Stand on a fart! Would I do that kind of thing?" Chi Xi whipped him again, "Mind yourself!"

Little Qingluan took half a step back, away from their quarrel, and looked at the three with smiles in her eyes.

Although the modes of getting along are different, Chi Xi has always had a good relationship with his friends, and he feels very happy.

Just as he was thinking, Jing Yuxuan suddenly screamed and ran towards him, "Little Phoenix, save me, he is going to kill someone!"

Jing Yuxuan hid behind Little Phoenix to avoid Chi Xi's attack.

"Come out!" Chi Xi said violently.

"Excuse me, Emperor Xi, I was wrong, and I will never dare again!" Jing Yuxuan begged for mercy evasively.

Everyone begged for him, and Xiao Fenghuang had a good temper, protecting Jing Yuxuan and urging him, "Aren't you going to buy something? Go!"

"Tsk." Chi Xi clicked his tongue, gave Jing Yuxuan a "wait for me" look, and went to buy a wallet with the others.

Xiao Qingluan stepped aside, and when she was about to distance herself from Jing Yuxuan, she suddenly heard him say something.

"Actually, I saw it. The two photos are of you, right?" Jing Yuxuan asked in a low voice.

"Uh..." Xiao Qingluan suddenly didn't know how to answer.

"Since you came here, I've discovered that Emperor Xi doesn't have that kind of attitude towards friends." Jing Yuxuan said tentatively in a very soft voice, "Are you dating him?"

"Not yet." Xiao Qingluan admitted very tactfully, and looked at Jing Yuxuan cautiously, "Do you think it's strange?"

"Hey, what's so strange?" Jing Yuxuan grinned, and said heartlessly, "I think you are very worthy, but you shouldn't agree to him so quickly. Xihuang slapped me twice just now, it hurt so much, Look at how violent he is!"

"Old Jing!" Seeing that this man was crazy and didn't follow, Ma Hao shouted from afar, "Hurry up, what are you talking to him about?"

"Hey, I'm suing." Jing Yuxuan strode over, happily said to Ma Hao, "Someone will be able to rule Xihuang in the future."

"Take control of Emperor Xi? I'm afraid it's just a dream. Don't forget, he doesn't even accept your father." Ma Hao felt that this was absurd.

"Anyway, there is, just wait." Jing Yuxuan said, looked back at Xiao Qingluan, and gestured to him that he was better than the two brothers.

Seeing this, Xiao Qingluan smiled helplessly.

Ten years apart, they have actually changed a lot, but the most essential beauty has never changed.

With the rich second generation around, everyone chose an expensive wallet for You Qingluan, at most one or two months' salary for many people.

The clerk took pictures of the group of teenagers, put them in their wallets according to their requirements, and handed them the wrapped paper bags.

"Xihuang, you can give it away, it's basically your money."

"You're all out too. We bought this together." Chi Xi said lightly, "Let's put it in the classroom and wait for him to find out."

The students looked at each other and thought it made sense.

Giving gifts in person is too nasty for them to do it.

When I came out of the shopping mall, it was past eleven o'clock, more and more people gathered in the square, and there were little snowflakes in the sky.

"It's almost zero, let's count down."

In recent months, Dongping has become lively, and everyone has obviously become active.

On the square, more people participated in the countdown than in previous years.Standing in the crowd, Chi Xi and Xiao Qingluan were almost overwhelmed by the enthusiasm around them.

Everyone looked at the clock and shouted in unison, "Five, four, three, two..."

"Happy New Year." Chi Xi whispered to the people beside him.

Then, he leaned in softly and kissed him lightly on the cheek.

Maybe it's because of the low temperature outside, but Chi Xi's lips were actually a little icy, and it felt cool against his face.

Xiao Qingluan was stunned.Amidst the crowd, he seemed to only be able to hear the voice of the young man next to him——

"I like you."

January 1st, zero o'clock, the first day of 1.

In the huge villa, only You Qingluan's room was lit.

You Qingluan slowly licked off the blood stains on his lips, grabbed Mr. Chi's hair, and said to him in a hoarse voice, "Happy New Year."

Mr. Chi's clavicle, which had already healed, had a new 'hickey', and the pain was so painful that he almost missed the zero point he had been waiting for for a long time.

"Honey, Happy New Year." Chi Xi stretched out his arms, fished out his coat, and took out a box from his pocket, "I originally made a reservation for a candlelight dinner and planned to propose to you."

"Then I think you should prefer this New Year's Eve."

You Qingluan didn't care about the sense of ceremony, took the small box, and slowly opened the distance between the two of them.

In the exquisite jewelry box, lay two men's rings, gilded with the dim light in the room.

They lean on each other and are inseparable.

"Mr. You Qingluan, I have admired you for a long time."

"Excuse me, would you... marry me?"
