we are not friends anymore

extra day

Eight in the morning.

There seemed to be some problem with the heating in the bedroom. Qiao Mingxi slept a little coldly, and turned over in a daze, trying to shrink into the familiar embrace, but it was in vain.

The seat next to him was empty, he unconsciously touched the bed sheet a few times and opened his eyes, his whole body was still in a state of sleepiness.

The room was quiet, Qiao Mingxi shrank back under the quilt, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

When Ji Yan opened the door and came in, what he saw was Qiao Mingxi huddled under the quilt, only showing a pair of black eyes.Hearing the sound of the door opening, the boy turned his head while lying under the quilt, and met Ji Yan's eyes.

Qiao Mingxi slowly stretched out a hand from under the quilt, and the sleeve of the pajamas slid down, revealing a section of her wrist.

"Are you awake? Wake up and have breakfast." Ji Yan sat on the edge of the bed and held his hand, trying to pull him up. Qiao Mingxi just sat up a little with his strength, and seemed to feel cold again, so he lay back shamelessly.

There was a helpless smile on Ji Yan's face, and he didn't force him, he bent down with the quilt to hold him in his arms according to his strength, and said in a deep voice, "Aren't you hungry?"

Qiao Mingxi blinked sleepily, then closed her eyes and said slowly, "I don't want to move."

His bangs were a little longer again, and he slept a little messily, resting softly on his forehead.Ji Yan stretched out his hand and brushed it away, lowered his head and kissed his forehead.

Qiao Mingxi was sluggish, and simply put her arms around his neck, shrinking into his arms.

Ji Yan's kiss left his forehead, slid from his eyelids to the tip of his nose, and finally touched the corner of his lips lightly.

I don't know if it's sleepy or cold, Qiao Mingxi seemed a little inattentive, Ji Yan lowered his head and bit his neck punitively, Qiao Mingxi subconsciously said "um", slowly opened his eyes and looked at him , but his expression was still a little dazed in the past.

Looking at it, it seems to be in a daze.

Ji Yan didn't speak either, just looked at him quietly like that, it took a long time for Qiao Mingxi to wake up a little bit, and asked him with his eyes open: "Is it number 25?"

Ji Yan looked at him, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, but he said something irrelevant: "Don't sleep, get up and have breakfast."

Qiao Mingxi grumbled, trying to turn over and continue to sleep, but Ji Yan quickly held his face in his hands, and imprisoned him gently and forcefully in his arms.

"Skipping breakfast is bad for the stomach." He whispered in Qiao Mingxi's ear, "I'll bring it in, eat a little."

Qiao Mingxi closed her eyes and said "um", as if falling asleep again, but the moment Ji Yan got up, he held his hand again.

"Let's eat together." Qiao Mingxi said in distress.

Ji Yan replied: "Okay."

Only then was his wrist released, and Ji Yan lowered his head and pulled back the quilt that had fallen more than half to the edge of the bed, turned around and left the bedroom.

Qiao Mingxi didn't open his eyes until he closed the door. He stared in the direction of the door for a few seconds in a daze, and suddenly rolled to the other side of the bed wrapped in a quilt.

He rolled all the way to the edge of the bed, then leaned up slightly to get something hanging by the bed.

The large colorful Christmas stockings are still the same as they were when they were hung up the first night, but they feel a little heavier when held in the hand.

Qiao Mingxi stared at it, and smiled childishly with her eyes bent.

Ten thirty in the morning.

The corridor of the studio is full of Christmas ribbons. The little administrative girl fiddled with a bunch of strange Santa Claus dolls from nowhere and placed them in a row under the window sill. put it back.

"Little boss, drink coffee." The young girl in the studio brought a coffee cup and handed it to him, glanced at the doll on the window sill and said, "Isn't it cute? Is there a festive atmosphere?"

Qiao Mingxi glanced at her and smiled.

"Little boss! Eat a piece of cake!" Another girl jumped out of the office in two or three steps, "Sister Tian made it herself and brought it. It tastes so good."

"It's amazing." Qiao Mingxi applauded the venue and reached out to take it.

"Hey, I can't." The administrative girl came from a distance, "Little boss, the boss just said that you have eaten breakfast and can't give you sweets."

As she spoke, the smile on her face became more and more uncontrollable, with a hint of schadenfreude.

Qiao Mingxi touched the bridge of his nose, and said to the girl who brought the cake, "Sorry."

"The boss is really lenient." The girl objected.

"If the little boss doesn't want to eat it, I'll eat it!" Another tall man jumped out of the office room, and snatched the cake from the girl's hand with his long arm.

The girl rolled her eyes: "Eat it, I will eat you to death."

The man was not angry either, and ate the cake with a smile.

Several girls liked Qiao Mingxi very much, and it was the holiday season, so they didn't have the heart to do the work at hand, so they gathered beside Qiao Mingxi to chat with him.In fact, it was the girls chirping. Qiao Mingxi listened carefully and answered a few words from time to time.

They talked about the variety show that Ding Xiangyuan brought his son recently to the youngest daughter of the queen Yin Yi, who was just showing her talent, and then added a point from the cheating team to the little fresh meat that the Hong Kong city boss promoted in the newly invested movie.

"That pair used to play on their own. Didn't we run into each other last time we went out with the boss?"

"So why do you want to get married..."

"Are you entering the circle for the first time, what's all the fuss about?"

"In this comparison, Sister Xixi and Brother Yuan are really rare."

"Our little boss and boss are rare."

At this point, the girls laughed, and Qiqi turned to look at Qiao Mingxi.

Qiao Mingxi had nothing to do and listened to their gossip, but now she felt a little embarrassed when she was watched, she smiled and said nothing.

At this moment, the door of the living room at the end of the corridor opened, and several people came out while talking.

He Xingzhou has changed from a beautiful young man with a crown of jade many years ago to a middle-aged man full of mature charm. His experience and deep-rooted acting skills are unmatched by all young actors. In the entire film industry, he is another one. A person who has become a god.

Ji Yan walked beside him, the two turned their heads and said a few words, and He Xingzhou took his assistant to leave.

The girls who were gossiping immediately put away the smiles on their faces, greeted He Xingzhou and his group, and each went about their own business.

He Xingzhou passed by Qiao Mingxi and smiled at him: "Let's go first, come to Hong Kong City to play when you have time."

Qiao Mingxi also smiled: "Brother He, go slowly."

Ji Yan sent He Xingzhou away, and when he came back, he saw Qiao Mingxi still standing in front of the window sill, walked over and gently placed his palm on the top of his head.

Qiao Mingxi looked up at him.

"Sorry for the long wait."

Qiao Mingxi shook his head, and Ji Yan said again: "Let's go, it's almost time."

His hand slid down and gently held Qiao Mingxi's hand.

When he got to the door, Qiao Mingxi glanced back. On the window sill, the strange Santa Claus dolls were crowded together in a crooked way, and there were a few faces peeping here from behind the office door.

Ji Yan followed Qiao Mingxi's line of sight, and those faces immediately disappeared with exaggerated expressions.

He shook his head with a grin, walked to the door and said to the administrative girl, "Have a half day off, let them go and play."

"Hey, good!" The girl immediately responded happily, "Thank you boss!"

"Thank you boss!" Cheers came from far away, "Boss and the little boss have been together for a hundred years!"

Ji Yan looked down at Qiao Mingxi, the two looked at each other helplessly, and walked away holding hands.

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

When the two arrived at the manor in the suburbs, it was snowing quietly in the sky.

Ji Yan walked to the passenger seat and opened the umbrella to let Qiao Mingxi get out of the car, and the two walked into the room side by side.

"elder brother!"

Fang Xixi's youngest son rushed down from the steps and rushed over to hug Qiao Mingxi's leg.

"It's uncle! How many times have you said it?" Ding Xiangyuan followed behind, leading the little boy by the collar and pulling him away.

The little boy was a little aggrieved, and called again: "Uncle Joe."

Qiao Mingxi bent down and hugged the little boy in his arms. The little boy hooked his neck with a smile.

"Uncle Joe, let's go in quickly, and I'll show you the gift Santa gave me."

Qiao Mingxi went in with the little boy in his arms. Ding Xiangyuan turned his head and saw Ji Yan was looking at Qiao Mingxi quietly, with deep eyes, but a gentle expression on his handsome face.

Ding Xiangyuan walked over and patted him: "Let's go, go in and drink."

Fang Xixi is pregnant again, eager to give birth to a daughter.At the moment, he was eating cake in front of the European-style fireplace, and when he saw Qiao Mingxi coming in, he immediately smiled: "Brother, brother, come quickly."

A few years have passed, and she is no longer that rebellious and energetic young girl who chews lollipops. Her whole body has the softness of being a mother and wife, and probably because of being so well cared for by Ding Xiangyuan. , a pair of eyes are still cunning and smart.On the contrary, she looks more and more like Yin Yi when she was young.

Qiao Mingxi walked over with her son in her arms, and saw that she was flipping through a magazine while eating a cake.

"Qiuqiu and the others are going to have new children's clothing in the spring." Fang Xixi pushed the magazine in front of Qiao Mingxi, "Brother, please help me refer."

Qiao Mingxi looked down and saw that they were all clothes of a one or two-year-old girl.

"...Aren't you due in two months?" he asked.

"It looks good. Buy it first and wait for her to wear it when she is two years old." Fang Xixi said confidently.

"When my sister is two years old, you will have forgotten it." Her son complained.

Fang Xixi patted his son's watermelon head in disgust, and threatened: "If you continue to complain about me ten times a day, I will tell the audience about your bedwetting when the program team comes next time."

"Ms. Fang Xixi." The little boy didn't even look up, "I stopped wetting the bed when I was three years old. It's wrong to lie."

Fang Xixi was at a loss for words, so she could only stare at her son a few times.

Qiao Mingxi was amused. He liked Fang Xixi's youngest son very much and would come to play with him whenever he was free.

The little boy ran up the stairs, and came down with a big box after a while: "Brother! Show you my Christmas present!"

He just changed his words for a while and then forgot again, and the adults didn't bother to remind him again.Qiao Mingxi leaned over to unwrap the presents with him. The two, one big and one small, sat on the carpet, looking like brothers.

Ding Xiangyuan sat down beside Fang Xixi, put his arms around her and talked to Ji Yan.

From time to time, Ji Yan turned his head to look at Qiao Mingxi. Fang Xixi looked at his expression, then turned his head to look at Qiao Mingxi, who was having a good chat with his son, and turned to Ji Yan in a low voice:

"Brother Yan, have you and senior brother ever thought about adopting a child?"

Ji Yan didn't expect her to ask such a question suddenly, paused, and smiled lightly: "Why do you ask this?"

"I think senior brother likes children." Fang Xixi moved her body lazily, "Have you asked him?"

Ji Yan didn't say a word, he lowered his head and smiled for a long time: "See if he likes it."

In fact, many years have passed, but he always had a faint feeling in his heart that Qiao Mingxi was still the boy who stood outside the practice room that year.

From time to time, he would think of the afternoon when the sun shone into the spacious practice room, Qiao Mingxi waited until he fell asleep on the chair, it was actually quiet and lovely.

Over the years, he has been working hard to give Qiao Mingxi the life he wants most, and Qiao Mingxi relies on him as before.In fact, Ji Yan doesn't care whether he has children or not, but if Qiao Mingxi wants to change his identity, he will grant his wish.

What he wants to give Qiao Mingxi is not only love, but also the home he wants.

Seven in the evening.

It always gets dark quickly in winter, Ji Yan and Qiao Mingxi bid farewell to Ding Xiangyuan's family and came out, the street lights on the side of the road were already on.

Driving all the way home, Qiao Mingxi suddenly said, "I want to go there for a walk."

Ji Yan then found a place to park the car, wrapped Qiao Mingxi in a long scarf, and the two walked to the embankment holding hands.

It has not yet reached the city center, and there are not many people on the embankment, and Christmas songs can be faintly heard floating in the distance.

The snow had been drifting all night, and it had almost stopped at this moment. Qiao Mingxi tilted her head and reached out to wipe off a little ice crystal that fell on Ji Yan's shoulder.

Ji Yan looked down at him, his usually indifferent eyebrows were softly reflected by the surrounding lights.

He has changed from a handsome and steady youth to an increasingly restrained and mature appearance. Qiao Mingxi looked at him for a long time, seeing every inch of his face that was so familiar, and couldn't help but smile.

Ji Yan looked at him with questioning eyes, and Qiao Mingxi whispered: "Youyou is already six years old."

Youyou is the baby name of Fang Xixi's son.

"It will be another eight years soon..." His voice was low, as if he was a little disappointed, "A Yan."

Ji Yan didn't answer, but met his eyes.

Qiao Mingxi turned his head and glanced at the river, but didn't continue to say what he wanted to say. He turned his head to look at Ji Yan, and a bright light was reflected in his eyes.

He looked at him for a long time before he smiled and said, "Merry Christmas."

Ji Yan also looked at him with a smile, and whispered back: "Merry Christmas."

He lowered his head and stretched out his arms to rub Qiao Mingxi into his arms. Qiao Mingxi stood quietly with him for a while, neither of them spoke.

Ji Yan put his lips next to Qiao Mingxi's ear, but didn't say anything.

tomorrow.

he thought at last.Regarding his future with Qiao Mingxi, he will no longer make decisions alone.

For the rest of our lives, let us hold hands and walk down together.

The author has something to say: After thinking about it, there is still a lot to explain about Zi Ning’s story, including c.air’s group show, which is too busy to guarantee daily updates, so I decided to write these two articles separately. It's a short and medium story, and girls who don't want to read Zining's story or memories just don't need to spend money to buy it~

Girls who want to read it will be ok to poke my column, and I will update it intermittently when I have time.

Then this article is officially over, thank you for your support, I still give red envelopes to the girls who leave a message in the first 30~

I love you all, but it’s still an advertisement in the end. The newly published article "Who Isn’t the White Moonlight?" can be seen by poking the column.

If you don't dislike it, I hope to meet you in the next article, and compare my heart.
