call my name

It's just a loose handshake, but the palms are close enough to feel his warmth.

Qi Yue didn't notice Lin Xia's intention, and patiently led him: "Count the steps, follow my steps, one, two, three—"

Being so close, we could clearly feel each other's breath.Surrounded by the pleasant fragrance of him, Lin Xia couldn't help but close her eyes halfway.

The clean male voice in the speaker sang emotionally: "I love you, my lonely lover. I loved you without reservation, and what you gave me will never be forgotten..."

Both of them stopped talking, listened to the song quietly, moved slowly, each lost in thought.

Qi Yue's breath brushed against his ears like a sponge.

Presumably, his own breath should be felt by Qi Yue in the same way, Lin Xia sensitively noticed that the other party's body was getting hotter.He secretly looked at Qi Yue, under the soft light, Qi Yue's eyes were like lakes with dark currents, blurred.

"Hey Axia," just when Lin Xia was about to approach his chin slowly, Qi Yue suddenly stopped, let go of his hand and took a step back, and seriously suggested: "What you want to practice is to dance with a female partner." , such practice is useless, why not let Zhenzhen practice with you tomorrow?"

The ambiguous air was swept away by him like this.

- The action failed.

Lin Xia forcibly concealed her disappointment and embarrassment, and scratched the back of her head: "Oh, that's right, why didn't I think of that."

Qi Yue smiled, then walked up the stairs: "Then, good night."

Lin Xia stood in place, watching his long legs take two steps at a time, briskly stepping up the corner of the stairs.

That song was still echoing for a long time: "Why, just leave like this, why can't we love each other until we die..."

Lin Xia touched her face and smiled self-deprecatingly.Perhaps Qi Yue was in a trance for a moment just now about this face, but he was able to stay awake all the time, so he cleverly escaped the ambiguous atmosphere created by Lin Xia.

They obviously already lived under the same roof, and they were even separated by an inch just now, but Qi Yue politely refused his approach.

—Give it up, it's too ridiculous.You are not the soul he loves, the only advantage is that you have a face similar to his love; even this face lacks the little mole on the face he loves.

***

"Great Emperor Guangxian" starts webcasting.

Lin Xia took a few glances and felt that she didn't have the feeling that she imagined in her heart.But apart from Roy's fans, most of the audience's comments on him were fairly positive.

Tian Bin called excitedly: "Brother Liu said that there are several scripts that he wants to talk to you about right now. I'm speaking on your behalf. We won't read the ones that aren't male lead! Haha!"

Lin Xia felt that it was unnecessary: ​​"No matter what role, as long as it suits me, I am willing to play it."

Tian Bin is full of confidence: "Be confident, brother! You have already acted as the male lead, and your position cannot be lowered! But don't worry, after all, the company's resources are now up to you to choose! Lao Zhao met me the day before yesterday and asked about your injury. How is the recovery, Huang Quan's grandson nodded and bowed when he saw me!"

Lin Xia knew the reason well: "They thought Qi Yue was my backstage."

Tian Bin smiled without embarrassment: "Isn't it? Didn't he support you to play the male lead role, and when someone bullied you, he went to the set to stand up for you? Are you living in his house now? This relationship..."

Lin Xia snapped back: "It's just friendship."

Tian Bin didn't take it seriously: "Hey, Xiao Lin, what are you pretending to be with me? Who are ordinary friends like this? Mr. Qi couldn't be more interested in you. But, you also paid the price, right?" Tian Bin's tone was low Come down: "Xiaolin, are you, um, are you by him... well, don't let Qu Niannian know about this matter. When you have the ability to leave him in the future, you can still be with Qu Niannian."

Lin Xia couldn't laugh or cry: "Don't talk more and more crooked! Qi Yue has never done anything to me!"

Because Qi Yue doesn't love him.

Qi Yue's love is like a sun, but it's a pity that it doesn't rise for Lin Xia; the kindness he gets now is only because Qi Yue regards him as the shadow of the person in the painting.

Tian Bin continued to comfort him: "Brother, I know, as a man, it is indeed very wronged to be inferior to others..."

Lin Xia gave up explaining and sighed: "Ah, yes, I am so wronged."

——He was willing to be a shadow, a stand-in, but Qi Yue was still unmoved.

Tian Bin was silent for a while, and reminded him cryptically: "I know you have a stubborn temper, but since you have already paid, um, the price, then don't waste it. Well, when you get along, don't offend him and waste all your previous efforts. Remember, as long as he values ​​you, your resources in the company will always come first..."

Lin Xia couldn't continue talking to him, so she hung up the phone after a few perfunctory words.

Although it is true that he has benefited from Qi Yue's credit, it is not that Qi Yue is his benefactor as others imagined.He didn't want others to misunderstand Qi Yue. It seemed that it was time to move out of Qi Yue's house.

When Lin Xia told Qi Yue this decision, he clearly saw the reluctance in his eyes.

But Qi Yue didn't have a word to hold back, but just smiled as always: "One day I will move back, and I will see you off."

Instead, Zhenzhen hugged Lin Xia like a koala: "Beautiful brother, don't leave! What if the bad guys come again, you have to protect me and my little uncle here!"

Qi Yue broke her off Lin Xia: "Beautiful brother has his own life and his own things to do, so don't bother him all the time."

In fact, you don't want to be disturbed by me, Lin Xia thought, I understand what you mean.

After finally coaxing Zhenzhen well, Lin Xia returned to the room, but couldn't sleep, and walked to the terrace in a daze.

Why not be reconciled, a person who isolates you, even if you live together and see each other day and night, you can't get closer.

Qi Yue, so gentle, yet so far away.

In the dark night, the sound of a lighter came to my ears, followed by a faint smell of smoke.Lin Xia could tell that Qi Yue was smoking on the terrace on the third floor.

What is he bothering about?It reminds me of the person in the painting.

Lin Xia held her breath, not wanting to disturb the tranquility of Qi Yue upstairs.After a while, Qi Yue sighed.

Lin Xia's heart throbbed.

He is obviously so lonely.

Lin Xia even started to hate the person in the painting.That person was lucky enough to carve a deep mark in Qi Yue's heart, but he left his heart like a shoe without authorization. It's really hateful.

The cool summer night breeze blew on the terrace for a long time, but Lin Xia's mind became more and more hot.Finally, he desperately set foot on the stairs leading to the third floor.

There was only one small night light on in the hall, and there was half a glass of amber wine on the bar counter of the wine cabinet, and the ice cubes in it had not completely melted.

Without hesitation, Lin Xia walked towards Qi Yue's bedroom.

He knocked on the door, but got no answer, so he simply opened the door and walked in without authorization.

The ink-colored quilt was neatly spread out on the bed, Qi Yue was still awake, there was light from the half-hidden door of the bathroom, and there was a faint sound of water.

Lin Xia stood outside the bathroom door and called him softly: "Qi Yue."

After a while, Qi Yue's puzzled voice came from inside: "... Axia? Are you outside? Wait."

This time Lin Xia didn't obey her obediently, and just pushed the door open and entered.

Qi Yue was about to get up from the bathtub, but was caught off guard, and quickly sat down again, the splash of water fell silently on the soft and thick floor towel.He was not angry at Lin Xia's sudden intrusion, he was stunned for a second, then he smiled cheekily and said, "What are you doing, do you want to play in the bathroom?"

Lin Xia has a thin skin and is always scared off by such jokes.Qi Yue seemed to have grasped his temper, and deliberately used offense as defense in this way.But this time Lin Xia didn't smile, and looked at him intently: "I have something to tell you."

Qi Yue was puzzled and curled up in the bathtub. Fortunately, the bathtub was large and not cramped.He was angry and funny: "Then you have to wait until I put on my clothes."

Lin Xia didn't move.

Qi Yue didn't realize that he was serious, so he continued to joke with him: "Why don't you come over and have a bubble together? We can talk while having a bubble, haha."

Lin Xia really walked over as promised.

There is no water vapor in the well-ventilated and open bathroom, and Qi Yue's skin can be clearly seen slightly reddened in the hot water, and there are still drops of water hanging on his eyelashes.Lin Xia looked at him, bit her lip and unbuttoned her jacket.

Seeing this, Qi Yue finally stopped laughing, and his face became serious: "A Xia."

Lin Xia resisted the urge to cry, and heard her voice like a gnat: "I...I want to stay by your side."

——Even if you are used as someone else's substitute, at least it can make you less lonely.

Qi Yue turned away from looking at him, and quietly ordered: "You go out."

Lin Xia was unable to disobey his words any longer, and exited the bathroom, waiting for his sentence.

After a while, Qi Yue hurried out wrapped in a bathrobe, saw him still standing at the door, and sighed, not in a tone of reproach: "Axia, what do you want?"

—I want you to love me as I love you, but I know that's not possible.

Lin Xia pursed her lips, choking what she wanted to say in her throat.

The room was very quiet, and each other's heartbeat and breathing could be heard clearly.Qi Yue's beautiful deep eyes looked at his face intently, and there was an unconcealable affection in his eyes.

Just when Lin Xia was about to pluck up the courage to speak under the gaze of this kind of eyes, Qi Yue continued to say seriously: "What script, what role do you want to play in the future? Or do you want to set up your own studio? Whether you want What, just tell me directly, and I will help you achieve it. You don't...you don't have to wrong yourself so much to please me."

Lin Xia woke up instantly.

It turned out that Qi Yue thought that his actions just now were a tribute in exchange for benefits.

——His affectionate eyes are not prepared for you, but staring at that similar person through your face.

Lin Xia smiled wryly: "I don't want anything. I...was confused just now, I'm sorry."

Hurry up and leave, any more humble entanglement will only lead to more misunderstandings by Qi Yue.Although he didn't say a word of reproach, it was already the greatest humiliation to Lin Xia.

Lin Xia lowered her head, not daring to look directly at Qi Yue again: "I will move out as soon as possible."

Qi Yue still didn't want to stay.

Lin Xia brushed past him in embarrassment and fled downstairs.

"A Xia!" Qi Yue called to stop him.

Lin Xia turned back with one last bit of fantasy.
