choose another day to go back

When Xiaoji arrived at the studio, he was introduced to the staff by the appointed editor, and talked about the general plot direction of the comics, the delivery time and other issues.Because Xiaoji's serialized comics have accumulated some popularity, the studio has directly signed the works together. Recently, they are doing a lot of publicity. I hope Xiaoji can come forward to some signing activities.Xiaoji refused without even thinking about it. He is not good at showing off in front of strangers. Even those who like his works finally only agreed to hold an exhibition.

After the chat, it was already lunch break time. After Xiaoji settled the lunch with the editor, he thought for a long time and had nowhere to go, so he took the subway back to Akita Po.After sleeping at home and finishing a manuscript, it was almost time for dinner.Just about to go to Jiang's house, Xiaoji received a call from the editor, saying that Xiaoji must attend the dinner party tonight.Seeing that he couldn't shirk, Xiaoji had no choice but to agree.Xiaoji took the subway to the place where he had an appointment with the editor, and the two went to the dinner together.

Most of the studios are born in the [-]s, and most of them are anime fans. Xiaoji chatted with them very speculatively, and was given too much alcohol if he didn't pay attention. Halfway through, Xiaoji had already drunk to the ground.

After the dinner party, there were only two sober ones left. The sober two dealt with the drunken ones one by one, but it was difficult to see Xiaoji.They were not familiar with Xiaoji's family situation, so they didn't know what to do for a while.Fortunately, Jiang Linlin's call came in time, and the two breathed a sigh of relief as they entrusted Xiaoji to Jiang Linlin.

Xiaoji was lying on the back seat, his body limp and weak, making no sound at all.Jiang Linlin weighed it for a moment and decided to take Xiaoji back to Hongwan's home.

Jiang Linlin lives in the old city, and this area is full of old houses that have not been demolished. The nearby ones have a history of about 80 to [-] years, and the far ones have a history of hundreds of years.Although Jiang Linlin's house was not the former residence of some well-known people, it was still a wealthy family with a single house.It's just that the house is located in a deep alley, and the only way to enter the house is by walking.Jiang Linlin parked the car at the entrance of the alley, opened the rear door, and looked at the drunk Xiaoji.Jiang Linlin stretched out his hand to pat Xiaoji's face, and yelled twice, only to receive a gentle breathing sound in response.Jiang Linlin bowed his body, held Xiao Ji on his shoulders, and strode home.

After entering the house, Jiang Linlin thought about calling home, but felt a little annoyed. With his free hand, he couldn't help but slapped Xiaoji's ass twice, and said, "It's all right now, and I'm going to be scolded again." up.

Xiaoji was a little uncomfortable on Jiang Linlin's shoulders before, but Jiang Linlin's two blows became the last straw, and Xiaoji spat it out.

Jiang Linlin didn't care about being vomited all over, so he quickly helped Xiaoji into the toilet, and held Xiaoji by the side. After he finished vomiting, he took another glass of water for him to rinse his mouth.Jiang Linlin saw that Xiaoji was also in a mess, so he didn't care much, so he ordered Xiaoji to take a bath.

Xiaoji just kept shaking his head and said he was uncomfortable.

Jiang Linlin said, it's no wonder that he didn't feel uncomfortable after drinking for two days in a row.Poke his forehead again, it hurts you to death.

Xiaoji was poked by Jiang Linlin, and he fell to the floor. Jiang Linlin was taken aback, and quickly helped him up, resignedly took off Xiaoji's clothes, carried him into the bathtub, and waited for Xiaoji to sit still. , quickly took off his dirty clothes, took off the disheveled head, adjusted the water temperature, and rubbed it fiercely at Xiaoji.

It was not the first time Jiang Linlin touched Xiaoji's skin, but every time he felt differently.Sometimes it feels slippery, sometimes tender, and sometimes visually white.This time, he only felt hot.Xiaoji's whole body was emitting heat, roasting Jiang Lin's hands.Jiang Linlin's gaze followed the water flow on Xiaoji's body gradually downward, across the cheeks, neck, chest, nipples, abdomen, legs, and finally into the bathtub.Jiang Linlin's lower body swelled up, "What time is it, I'm still thinking about this." Jiang Linlin said to himself.

After washing Xiaoji with difficulty, Jiang Linlin wiped Xiaoji dry, carried him into the bedroom, put him directly under the quilt, adjusted the air conditioner, took a look at Xiaoji's sleeping face, and then came out to clean up the vomit left on the floor, and took a shower. bath.After everything was settled, Jiang Linlin called home. Fortunately this time, it was Jiang's father who answered the call. The two said a few words before hanging up.

When Jiang Linlin walked into the bedroom, the temperature had already dropped, and the air-conditioning hit his naked skin, causing goose bumps.Jiang Linlin fed Xiaoji with saliva, looked at Xiaoji's wet lips, couldn't hold back, and lowered his head to kiss her.After the kiss, I was a little unsatisfied, because it was too comfortable, and there was a tendency to raise my head underneath. It's not yet time, Jiang Linlin thought, so he went to the guest room.

Jiang Linlin didn't fall asleep because he was thinking about Xiaoji.There was only one wall between the guest room and the master bedroom. In the middle of the night, there was a loud noise from the master bedroom. Jiang Linlin woke up immediately and ran to the master bedroom.When I opened the door, I saw Xiaoji laying on the ground, rubbing his head. It turned out that he had fallen under the bed after a good sleep.

Xiaoji fell a little hard this time, Jiang Linlin seemed to have touched a big bag, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, rubbed Xiaoji's head, and said, "Why are you still like a child, when you fall, you get a bag."

Xiao Ji said inarticulately: "You are like a child, you take off my clothes."

Jiang Linlin said, God, I forgot.He got up and took two pieces of clothes from the closet and put them on for Xiaoji.Xiao Ji refused to put on his clothes obediently, Jiang Linlin put them on while he took them off.Xiaoji said: "Don't try to wear it for me. I want to leave evidence, and you don't want to destroy the evidence." He looked righteous.

Jiang Linlin couldn't move anymore, "Okay, don't blame me when you get up early tomorrow morning." He pushed Xiaoji into the bed again, and got into it himself.

Xiaoji quickly fell asleep, but Jiang Linlin lost all sleepiness after such a commotion. He propped himself up and closed Xiaoji's quilt. Looking at Xiaoji, only a small wall lamp was turned on in the room. Jiang Linlin's face was hidden in the darkness, with a clear outline .Xiaoji turned over, faced Jiang Linlin, felt something beside him, put his arms around Jiang Linlin's waist, twisted his body back and forth twice, found the most comfortable position, smacked his mouth twice, and breathed It became long and slapped Jiang Linlin's waist, piercing through the thin clothes and reaching his skin.

In the dead of night, only one air conditioner was humming, but Jiang Linlin felt that the air conditioner had lost its function, and the temperature in the room was gradually rising. Maybe it was Xiaoji who was getting hot, or maybe it was himself.Jiang Linlin leaned close to Xiaoji's body, and the moment he was close, Jiang Linlin felt extremely comfortable.

Xiaoji woke up with a headache, and his head seemed to be a few pounds heavier.He struggled to get up, the quilt slipped off his body, Xiaoji found himself naked, and looked around again, the decoration didn't look like a hotel.Wrapped in a quilt, he left the bedroom and walked around the house. The decoration of this room is a bit special, and there is a sense of age everywhere in the house. The old-fashioned wooden ladders, furniture, and doors make Xiaoji feel like he is in the last century, but The overly modern appliances reminded him that this is the 21st century.

Xiaoji seemed to understand where he was, but he didn't see the figure of the owner of the house. Xiaoji was wrapped in a quilt and it was inconvenient to go downstairs, so he stood at the stairs and shouted: "Brother!"

Jiang Linlin poked his head out from the kitchen, "You wake up, the meal will be ready soon."

Xiaoji said yes, so he went back to the bedroom.

Not long after, Jiang Linlin called Xiaoji downstairs for dinner. Xiaoji ran out of the room and said to Jiang Linlin, "Can you find me some clothes first?"

Jiang Linlin laughed downstairs, and went up the stairs in three steps and two steps. The wooden stairs were creaking under his feet. Seeing Xiaoji's resentful eyes, Jiang Linlin said to him, "You can't blame me, you are the one who refused to let me go." I wore it."

Xiaoji's head that was exposed outside the quilt suddenly turned red. Jiang Linlin picked up the clothes that Xiaoji didn't want to put on last night and gave it to him. Seeing his flushed face, he imagined his body wrapped in the quilt, probably also red of.

Jiang Linlin threw the clothes to Xiaoji, "Come down to eat when you're finished." He went downstairs first.

Xiaoji sat at the dining table, took a mouthful of rice, and glanced at Jiang Linlin, who was still smiling. He asked nonchalantly, "What are you laughing at?"

Jiang Linlin smiled and said, "Xiaoji, why are you getting more and more stupid, you haven't brushed your teeth yet."

Xiaoji was stunned for a while, then blushed again, put down her chopsticks angrily, and walked into the bathroom.A new toothbrush was already placed on the sink. Xiaoji unpacked it, brushed his teeth, and washed his face along the way. After finishing all this, he stood in place and thought for a while, making sure that he didn't miss anything that he didn't do. Just out of the bathroom.

Just as Xiaoji sat down, Jiang Linlin handed him a glass of water, "Drink a glass of water first," he said.

Under Jiang Linlin's gaze, Xiaoji drank a full cup.

"You can drink as much as you give, no wonder you get drunk." Jiang Linlin put the empty cup aside, and after Xiaoji sat down, he said, "Drinking at the wine table, once you are in a good mood, you will lose your sense of proportion. You have to Weigh how much you have, and do what you can." Then he taught Xiaoji some ways to stop drinking.

After listening, Xiaoji asked, "Is this how you block drinking?"

Jiang Linlin hadn't used these methods himself, he was also a drinking maniac when he was young, so he didn't bother to use these methods at all, but when it came to Xiaoji, Jiang Linlin still hoped that he would drink as little as possible.

Xiaoji didn't get an answer and said: "You never use these methods, right? You want me to use..." This is concern, I know.Xiaoji didn't say this sentence.

The dining table fell into silence, only the sound of the two of them picking up food, and Xiao Ji suddenly said, "Thank you."

Jiang Linlin touched the top of Xiaoji's head, "Don't thank me."

"I mean, the meal was delicious, thank you."

"That's not."

"The rice is delicious, but the food is still a little too hot."

"Hey, you kid."

"Why don't you have to go to work today?"

"It's okay, I'm the one who pays the salary."

"Oops, showing off is a bit obvious."

"Are you okay if you don't go to work today?"

"Although I'm not the one who pays the wages, I'm basically a freelancer and don't have to sit on duty."

"Oops, showing off is a bit obvious."

Xiaoji sneered: "Jiang Linlin, you are so childish."

"Who called my brother just now?"

"A child like you is not worthy of being a brother."

"You're a year younger than me, kid!"

The two had dinner and decided to go back to Akita Po.Xiaoji stood up to clean up the dishes, but Jiang Linlin stopped him, "It's fine, wait for Auntie to clean up."

"You still invited aunt? You still cook by yourself after inviting aunt and aunt?"

What can Jiang Linlin say, should I say, I am afraid that my aunt will break your naked body at home.I fantasized about you waking up all night, rushing out naked and panicked?Thinking of this, Jiang Linlin felt it was a pity again. He knew that he had taken the quilt, no way, he would catch a cold, so turn off the air conditioner, no way, it was too hot.

"What and what?" Jiang Linlin said.

When the two went out, Xiaoji looked back at Jiang Linlin's house. Under the sunshine of June, every wall and every tile reflected light.Xiaoji felt that this house was like a girl with yellow flowers in a deep house compound, hidden deep and beautiful naturally.Xiaoji sighed: "You are really rich."

Jiang Linlin explained, "A few years ago Hongwan District announced that this area was going to be demolished. The original owner was anxious to find a buyer with money at first, but when he heard that it was going to be demolished, he refused to sell it. Later, because of the need to protect the old city, this One piece was not demolished, and the buyer thought the house would not be sold, so he bought a house in another urban area. The original owner sold the house at a low price in order to sell it, and I happened to meet him and took a big deal."

"You are really lucky."

Jiang Linlin smiled and said nothing, and threw a paper bag in his hand to Xiaoji.

"What's this?" Xiaoji asked.

"They were all taken when I was in college when I had nothing to do. At that time, Akita Kamo's houses were all painted with a Chinese character, and I thought I would never see them again. I didn't realize that I had accumulated a lot of photos."

Xiaoji opened the bag, took out a stack of photos, and took out a few to look at. They were all Akita catamarans from a few years ago. Some buildings overlapped with Xiaoji’s memory, but it was true that as Jiang Linlin said, most of the walls of the houses had a Chinese character “Chaizi” drawn on them. The red one is very bright in the picture.

"These photos must have a history of five or six years." The color tone of the photos is a bit dark, not the current photographic equipment.

"Almost." Jiang Linlin said.

"Such a precious thing."

"I heard you and Zhizhi say that the background of your manga is Akita Kamo, so I paid attention to it."

"Do you often miss Akita Kamo in the past?"

"The past is for nostalgia." Jiang Linlin sighed.

"So when I paint, I will unknowingly lighten the tone, or even turn yellow. It's like the memory clips in the film will always change to another tone. It's not that Akita Po is grayish yellow a few years ago. Those are the colors of memories deliberately added. Sometimes I think about it without emotion. Even ten years ago, there was such a summer in Akita Po. The sun was shining and everything was very bright, but when everything became a memory, the sky was so bright Only gray and white are left." Xiaoji said.

"The photo in your hand is the Akita catamaran back then, but looking at it now, it has become a yellowed photo. This is not necessarily an emotional color, but the photographic ability you had back then cannot restore the color of the year, no matter how good the pixels are. , after six years, it will also become blurred. Photos leave traces unconsciously, and matter is no match for time." Jiang Linlin said.

The two finally walked out of the alley, Xiaoji's face was already red, and many beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.Sitting in the car, Xiaoji yelled "air conditioner and air conditioner." After the car was exposed to the sun all morning, the temperature was higher than the temperature outside the car. Xiaoji couldn't stand the heat, so he stretched out his hand to fan the wind and asked, "The same is true for Akita pomegranate ten years ago. Is it hot?"

"It's hot, did you forget that we bathe in the Akita River?"

"But it doesn't seem that hot in my memory."

"You have always been a person with a short memory, and you are still the same now. It really hasn't changed at all."

Jiang Linlin started the car, and the car merged into the traffic flow. The air conditioner quickly took effect, and Xiaoji fell asleep at a comfortable temperature.
