blessing to the soul

The rain was not small but heavy, so Nie Yuan stayed to rest. The two sat facing each other by the weak candlelight. It was no fun to run out of battery on the mobile phone, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

The candles in the house were decorative scented candles, which were extinguished after a short time, and the inside of the house returned to darkness, even darker than the outside.Lu Xing'an suggested to go to the rooftop, where there is a glass wall to protect the room from getting wet, and Nie Yuan naturally agreed.

Carefully groping towards the stairs, a trash can was caught by the corner of the table and kicked over, Lu Xingan could vaguely see Nie Yuan's expression, full of annoyance and displeasure, Lu Xingan couldn't help his father to smile , grabbed Nie Yuan who was going to help the trash can, "I can't see clearly now, let's clean it up tomorrow."

Nie Yuan lost face in front of Lu Xing'an, felt very ashamed, continued to move forward sullenly, and walked more carefully.However, Nie Yuan dawdled along for a long time for a short distance before reaching the end, Lu Xing'an naturally grabbed his wrist and led him away, the temperature burning on his wrist made Nie Yuan tremble.Maybe five seconds, maybe ten seconds, the heart beats about 1 times a minute, an average of 75 beats per second, Nie Yuan counted the heartbeats, bang bang bang bang bang...

My heartbeat has probably exceeded 30, and it takes 24 seconds at a normal heartbeat speed, and he can run 24 meters in 200 seconds. Nie Yuan thought, how big is his house in this calculation...

Nie Yuan stretched out his fingers where no one could see, wanted to hold that hand back, wanted to buckle it in one by one, wanted to never let go, thought a lot, and finally retracted his palm without exceeding Momentum.

Make a deal with yourself, don't do things he hates anymore.

No matter how complicated the mental activity is, the physical reaction is only subtle. Lu Xingan only felt that the wrist muscles he was holding jumped and quickly calmed down. He blamed it on the slightly awkward relationship between the two of them recently. Lu Xingan took him to the stairs Then he let go of his hand, keeping it within reach and not so close.

After ascending to the rooftop, the situation became much better. Only the Jiayuan area was cut off, and the street lights were still working. Nie Yuan was finally able to get out of the blind state.Big raindrops hit the glass room, and wet traces snaked along the wall. The world is hazy like a highly myopic person who has lost his glasses, with a different kind of beauty.

They both wanted to live in harmony, and the two of them chatted one after another, discussing trivial matters, discussing ball games, Baba Shengfeng and Sun Xu's love life, and daily gossip in the studio. up.Nie Yuan was too reserved, mainly playing the role of the listener. Lu Xing'an couldn't help but talk dry after talking alone for a long time, "I'm dying of thirst, why didn't I think talking was so saliva-intensive before?"

Nie Yuan smiled and said to get him water, but Lu Xingan disagreed, "You can't see the road clearly, so forget it."

After touching a mobile phone casually, Nie Yuan turned on the flashlight. Under the light, both of them were a little embarrassed. Why didn't they think of this function just now?

Nie Yuan went downstairs to get water, Lu Xingan nestled in the rattan chair doing nothing, the remaining mobile phone on the table lit up and buzzed, Lu Xingan leaned over and looked, it was Nie Yuan's.Lu Xing'an didn't answer, and after the other party hung up, he saw that there were several missed calls on the screen, all from a number named Qiran.

Does this guy named Qiran have urgent business with Nie Yuan?

When the phone was turned on again, Lu Xingan held it in his hand, but Nie Yuan hadn't come back for a long time. He was afraid that the other party was really looking for Nie Yuan for something urgent, so he took it upon himself to pick it up for him. He couldn't get his mouth in quickly.

Qi Qiran managed to get through to Nie Yuan's phone, and he greeted his whole family with his mouth, and then felt that he was being scolded, so he slowed down and asked him: "I just saw the news that the highway is closed and you go back to N City No? You are brave enough in such a thunderstorm. God didn’t kill you halfway! Grandpa is worried about you. I’ll call him back later. Do you hear that? You can say a few nice words, hello? Why don't you talk?"

Qi Qiran fed a few times in a strange way, and a bad thought flashed in his heart, and he asked anxiously: "You must have also been in that car accident, right? Talk! Are you alright?!"

Lu Xingan opened his mouth for a while before recovering his voice, "...Hi, Nie Yuan is not here now."

Qi Qiran shut his mouth immediately, guessing that the other party was Nie Yuan's deer, "Hello, can you please let him call me back when he comes back?"

"Okay," Lu Xingan knew it was time to hang up the phone, he hesitated for a moment and still didn't hang up, "May I ask, was Nie Yuan out of town with you just now?"

"Ah... yes, we've been in An County for the past two days." Knowing that the people Nie Yuan was thinking about had a common assist attribute, Qi Qiran pretended not to know the situation and asked Lu Xing'an, "Do you know why Nie Yuan went back suddenly? We went out to play with the old man at home, I don't know why he went back in a hurry, his grandpa has been worrying about asking me, is there something urgent?"

Lu Xing'an was silent for a moment, and said vaguely: "...There is nothing particularly important, it has been resolved."

Qi Qiran asked: "That's strange. The weather is so bad and running at high speed is easy to cause accidents. If it's not important, why is he in such a hurry to go back? No, I just heard that there was a car accident on the highway back to the city and there was a series of rear-end collisions. Thought he was in there too."

Lu Xingan was restless, he hung up the phone after answering a few words indiscriminately, holding the phone in a mess.

Why didn't Nie Yuan say that he was out of town? If Nie Yuan was in those rear-end cars just now, how would he face it?

Guilt and helplessness swept over Lu Xing'an, and when Nie Yuan came back with the plate, he was still in a daze.Putting down the things, Nie Yuan shook his hand in front of Lu Xingan, "Boss?"

"Huh?" Lu Xingan's eyes slowly focused on Nie Yuan, who calmly asked him to eat something, and the steaming bowl of noodles made his eyes sore, Lu Xingan picked up the bowl to cover up his gaffe , Try to ask in a relaxed tone: "Didn't the power go out, how did you do it?"

"Natural gas." Nie Yuan took his own to eat that night, took two bites and frowned, "No, it's troublesome, the salt and sugar are wrong, forget it, don't eat it, drink some milk Bar."

As he said that, he was about to reach out to get his bowl, but Lu Xingan avoided it, hugging the bowl and eating loudly, his mouth was stuffed, "It's okay, I'm hungry."

Nie Yuan joked that he was crazy hungry and not picky eaters, Lu Xingan ignored him, and tried hard to swallow the strange-tasting noodles, feeling unspeakably uncomfortable, both in taste and in his heart.

Lu Xing'an was very confused when he came to the crossroads. For a long time, Nie Yuan's kindness to him was unquestionable. His behavior was not the way he asked him to respond, but he could rely on the other party's feelings for him to enjoy this situation with peace of mind. everything?

——Can I respond to Nie Yuan's feelings?

--I have no idea.

Nie Yuan also saw that something was wrong with Lu Xing's restless appearance, and he asked worriedly: "Boss, have you encountered any trouble?"

"It's... not a troublesome matter," Lu Xingan didn't want to include Nie Yuan in trouble, it would make him feel even more sorry for Nie Yuan.

Nie Yuan saw that he didn't want to talk and didn't force him to ask, so he just said, "Okay, if you need help, just say it."

Sure enough, he became more defensive against himself, Nie Yuan thought bitterly.

Lu Xingan looked at the handsome young man and was worried about himself giving in. The moment the lightning pierced through the night, the emotion in his eyes made Lu Xingan lose his reason. If this is what he wants, if he can afford it, " Nie Yuan, I..."

"drop!"

The sound of the power being switched on awakened Lu Xing'an's rationality. Facing Nie Yuan's suspicious gaze, Lu Xing'an was almost ashamed. What did he want to say just now?Said I would like to try with you?Saying this rashly when you are not sure whether you can accept a man?Is this the so-called sympathy?Is this fair to Nie Yuan?

Lu Xing'an was extremely ashamed, but still had to continue to circle back, he tried his best to look relaxed, "I think the call is coming soon, look, it really is."

Nie Yuan laughed twice, "Boss is wise."

Lu Xingan stood up and exchanged the mobile phone with Nie Yuan's, "Your friend just called and asked you to call him back."

Nie Yuan looked at the call records, it was Qi Qiran, and he put the phone back into his pocket, "It's okay, he should have asked me where I was, and he should know I'm home when you pick it up, it doesn't matter if I come back or not."

Nie Yuan whitewashed peace, and Lu Xingan actually felt relieved—Nie Yuan deliberately suppressed those feelings. He doesn't know how to respond now, and he can't even accept rejection. Pretending that he doesn't know anything is the best way at present. , "Then I'm going back to my room, you should go to bed early too."

"Good night."

"Good night."

Watching Lu Xing'an go downstairs, Nie Yuan slowly packed up the leftovers, and suddenly laughed out loud.

How could Nie Yuan, who was familiar with Lu Xingan to the bone, not understand what his expressions represented? Just for a moment, Lu Xingan wanted to point it out, and refused?Advise him to go the right way?Anyway, it won't be acceptance, which Nie Yuan is very self-aware.

"I'll change it, I can do it, really,"

"real."

"real……"
