call me kid

Before midnight, Lin Zhengqing accompanied the sleepy Xiao Fang back to the room, leaving Lin Ran and Lin Xin sitting on the sofa.

While watching TV, Lin Ran chatted with Shi Yige casually. There was a seven-hour time difference between the two of them, and they didn't even agree on the zero o'clock.

It was almost zero o'clock in China, Lin Ran got up and went to the dining table next door to lean on and call Shi Yige to count down.

It took a while for the phone to be connected. First, there was the sound of running water from the receiver, followed by Shi Yige's soft voice, "Of course?"

Lin Ran smiled, looked up at the clock in the living room, and started counting down in response to the sound of the party on the TV, "Five, four, three, two, one...Happy New Year! Shi Yige."

"Happy New Year ~ Lin Ran."

Lin Ran sighed for a long time, "Ah... at this time, it's really better to hug you and talk."

Shi Yige chuckled and asked back, "Then what should I do if I can't be hugged now?"

Lin Ran smiled and snapped his fingers, "This is easy!"

"Ok?"

"Come back and replenish me."

……

Lin Ran hung up the phone reluctantly, turned around and walked back to the sofa, and looked down to see Lin Xin staring at his phone in a daze. On the screen was a text message, a text message saying "Happy New Year." Xi" two words.

"Why don't you come back?" Lin Ran gently leaned on the back of the sofa behind Lin Xin with his hands propped up.

Lin Xin heard the voice behind him, felt the movement, and suddenly came back to his senses, looked sideways at Lin Ran, before she could speak, Lin Ran spoke first.

Lin Ran waved his right hand and said, "Sister, I didn't peek at your news, I just saw you in a daze, just leaning here casually, and it turns out that your eyesight is so good..."

Lin Xin closed his eyes lazily, and caressed Daida lying beside her, "Is the flirting with your family Shi Yige over?"

"Sister, your Chinese teacher should know that you might be mad at you for using idioms like this." Lin Ran propped himself up, went around to the front of the sofa, and sat beside Lin Xin.

Lin Xin locked the phone and put it aside, "I don't know what to reply."

"Why don't you know what to reply? Isn't it just a happy new year? You should also reply a happy new year. Miss, you are still a social expert." Lin Ran said disgustedly, turning his head and continuing to watch TV.

"It would be great if it was an ordinary social message about happy new year." Lin Xin murmured while looking at his phone.

Lin Ran looked at the skits in the Spring Festival Gala, but didn't hear Lin Xin's words clearly, so he turned his head with a smile and asked, "Huh? Sister, what did you say?"

Lin Xin twitched the corners of his mouth, got up with his mobile phone, "It's nothing, you can continue to read, I'm going back to my room to rest."

"Ah? So fast? You're asleep too?" Lin Ran looked up at Lin Xin unexpectedly.

"Ah."

Lin Ran hugged Daidai and sighed, "Oh, it's only me and Daidai left alone, how lonely Wudi is!"

Lin Xin rolled his eyes at Lin Ran and went back to the room.

……

That night Lin Xin threw herself into the massage chair to relax, and Wu Xi sat on the sofa not far from her.

Wu Xi looked at the TV, "Why did you come back so late today? Did you work overtime?"

Lin Xin rested with his eyes closed, "No, please have a meal with Shi Yige and Lin Ran."

The sound of turning the TV and changing channels suddenly stopped, followed by Wu Xi's somewhat surprised voice, "Oh? You know it too!"

Lin Xin opened his eyes, and made a serious note to Lin Ran in his heart, "So I was the last to know?"

"We should be about the same." Wu Xi smiled, then said after thinking of something, "Then your meal should be very sour."

Lin Xin raised his eyebrows, looked at Wu Xi and said, "...You reminded me, next time I eat with them, I will order more sweets, to neutralize my stomach."

Wu Xi rubbed the tip of his nose, looked at Lin Xin's direction vaguely, but turned his hand to the TV in the other direction, "You are not bad, didn't someone send you flowers every day a while ago?" ?” When speaking, he deliberately added the accent on the word “someone”.

"Well, I don't know who it is, dare to send flowers but dare not write their names."

"Who says you can't...cough cough, I mean you have to be more reserved?"

Lin Xin looked at the inexplicable blush on Wu Xi's face, and thought about whether it was too hot in the room, "Why should a big man be reserved?"

Wu Xi tentatively said, "Then what if... it's not a man?"

"Not male, female?"

Wu Xi blinked, nodded, and looked at Lin Xin expectantly, "What if."

Lin Xin suddenly realized, "Oh, that's also understandable."

After the massage was over, Lin Xin got up and stretched his body, "Are you still watching TV? I'm going to sleep, you can watch it."

Lin Xin walked towards the bedroom, but Wu Xi's hesitant voice came from behind him. It was small and weak mixed with the sound of the TV, as if he was talking to himself, "If a woman really likes you, I will confess to you..."

But Lin Xin still stopped in his tracks, standing and waiting for Wu Xi to finish speaking, but the people behind him suddenly stopped talking, and the pause was a bit long, Lin Xin turned around in doubt, "Huh?"

Wu Xi sat with her back straightened all of a sudden, her fingers slightly rubbed the buttons of the remote control, her eyes didn't care what was playing on TV, but she looked at her for a moment, and opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something. talk to her.

Lin Xin saw Wu Xi's hesitation, and stood up subconsciously. She felt that Wu Xi had something important to say to her, "What's wrong?"

But in the next second, Wu Xi looked at Lin Xin and shook his head and smiled casually, "It's nothing, you should refuse."

Lin Xin looked at Wu Xi's smile, a little confused, "What? A woman confessing to me? Not necessarily, as long as I like it."

Looking at Lin Xin, Wu Xi's eyes suddenly widened, he was a little stunned, and even his fingers that kept rubbing the buttons of the remote control stopped.

Lin Xin stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Wu Xi's eyes, "Are you sleepy?"

The other party didn't reply. She was still in a daze like that. Lin Xin stepped forward and took the remote control from Wu Xi's hand to turn off the TV. "Go to sleep." After speaking, he turned and walked towards the bedroom, but he still didn't leave. After a few steps, he was suddenly pulled by his sleeve.

Lin Xin turned around and saw Wu Xi who was standing behind her, pulling on her sleeve with one hand, "Huh? What's wrong?"

Wu Xi didn't look at her, but looked down at another place, couldn't see his expression clearly, and paused a bit, "That, that..."

Lin Xin listened patiently to the other party, "Then what?"

"Then, if it is..." Wu Xi seemed to have made up his mind, suddenly raised his head, looked at Lin Xin with his neck straightened, the hand holding Lin Xin's sleeve was trembling slightly, maybe even Wu Xi himself Didn't notice this.

Lin Xin didn't speak.

"Then what if I like you?"

……

Lin Xin's frown did not relax, and he turned from left to right, without any sleepiness, and his mind kept playing the words and pictures that Wu Xi said when he stayed at his home that day in a loop.

Lin Xin took a deep breath and sighed. He couldn't fall asleep anyway, so he simply sat up, leaned against the head of the bed, closed his eyes and gently rubbed his temples with both hands.

Lin Xin didn't expect Wu Xi's sudden confession that night. She had thought that Wu Xi's kindness to her was different from other people's, but she didn't think about it at all, thinking that it was just because their relationship was better.

Later, Lin Xin thought that she had heard wrong and that Wu Xi was joking. She smiled and asked Wu Xi not to joke, but what she got was a serious and firm repetition from the other party.

Later, this unexpected and sincere confession caught Lin Xin by surprise, almost subconsciously, Lin Xin chose to escape.

She avoided all things and places that would have an intersection with Wu Xi. At the end of the year, she simply held the annual meeting early, ended work early and took a vacation, and finally returned home decisively.

And the other party probably didn't expect to get such a response from Lin Xin at the beginning. After trying to find Lin Xin a few times but being avoided, they entered a short pause. The first "Happy New Year" text message.

What troubled Lin Xin was that if this was a confession from another stranger, with her personality, she would refuse to give up in person without saying a word, but this is not the case. This is a confession from her own friend. Her concerns It also increased.

In the end, Lin Xin still didn't reply to this text message, and he didn't feel sleepy until four or five in the morning, and fell into a deep sleep.

……

The rest time always passed quickly, and the year was over in the blink of an eye. The day before the end of the rest, when Lin Ran wrapped himself up as a bear to pick up Shi Yige at the airport, he first received a call from his manager Yang Zhu.

After a year, with the buffer of time, Yang Zhu is obviously in a much better mood than before the New Year. He simply checked with Lin Ran about the upcoming activities, and specially told the big star reality show variety show "hello, roommate! " will also be filmed in these two days, Lin Ran responded one by one.

On the day of the variety show shooting, Zhou Qi came to pick up Lin Ran. Lin Ran only brought a large suitcase. Although it was a reality show variety show, he still had to go out when there was an event, and he would come back after the event. Asking the assistant to bring them over, Lin Ran insisted on simplicity and convenience and only brought the most basic things.

Before the filming, the program team had a simple recorded Q&A, which was recorded at Lin Ran’s home. Of course, Dadai, who was crazy when he saw people, was also filmed, and even the young lady who followed the filming director liked Dadai very much. He Linran enthusiastically suggested whether to consider bringing Daidai with him.

"Wang!"

"..."

After one person and one dog stared wide-eyed, Lin Ran agreed to the director's proposal, but he still had to ask his roommates if they minded Huskies before making a final decision.

After the recording of the question and answer, Lin Ran took out the room key. Lin Ran reached into the box with his long hand to fish it out, and suddenly a red ball 2 appeared in his hand, and then the other hand was stuffed into a No. 2 room key.

Looking at the key card in his hand, Lin Ran felt as if he and Shi Yige would be separated for another 20 days.

"Are you looking forward to, Mr. Lin!" asked the shooting director.

"I'm really looking forward to it~" Lin Ran grinned to hide the burst of tears in his heart.

In the end, just before the end of the filming, the film crew told Lin Ran that there was a mystery guest in this variety show, which would be revealed on the day of their recording.

Lin Ran held the key and tilted his head, "Mysterious guest?"
