The day before the first anniversary of their relationship, Xiao Yunwei went to Penghu with Zuo Xuanyi, holding a plane ticket and carrying the backpack he had dreamed of.

As the one with the lower luggage packing skills among the two, Zuo Xuanyi wisely didn't ask why it was the same trip of three days and two nights. Xiao Yunwei's luggage seemed to be one size smaller than his.

As soon as they passed the customs, the owner of the homestay waved to them enthusiastically and shouted, "Mr. Zuo! This way!"

Zuo Xuanyi also waved enthusiastically, and whispered to Xiao Yunwei who was beside him, "I always think that the enthusiasm of Penghu people is directly proportional to the heat of the sun."

"It may also be because you were exposed to the sun and had hallucinations, or he was so enthusiastic because he wanted you to get a discount." Xiao Yunwei collected the ticket and replied in a low voice.

Zuo Xuanyi turned his head and gave the other party a supercilious look, and said, "Boss Jiang is super generous and kind. Last time I came to deal with the mess, he personally baked fresh oysters for me. I ate them for two days, but he didn't follow me." I charge a dollar."

"Is this reminding me that one day I will eat grilled fresh oysters?"

"That's right."

After Zuo Xuanyi finished speaking, he walked up to Boss Jiang, shook hands with him, exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then got in the car and returned to the hotel.

Xiao Yunwei quietly listened to Boss Jiang and Zuo Xuanyi discussing where he wanted to fine-tune the second hall of the hotel, where he couldn't understand the design drawings, and where he wanted to add an extra wooden corridor.

Although he knew very well that he didn't need to record, Zuo Xuanyi was like a recording pen in this part, and he never forgot.But Xiao Yunwei still made a record for himself, lest Zuo Xuanyi didn't remember clearly when he said it, which would be too embarrassing.

After arriving at the second building and getting off the car, Zuo Xuanyi followed Boss Jiang to see the half-dug landscape pond. After Xiao Yunwei took the key, he took the luggage of the two back to the room first.

The owner of the homestay generously gave them a four-person room, that is, two double beds.

Xiao Yunwei put away his luggage, walked around the unopened homestay with a good mood, and finally saw his boss by the landscape pond.

Zuo Xuanyi and Boss Jiang squatted by the pond to study how to bury the pipeline, and see if they could pass through a few small flower beds along the pipeline to do automatic watering.

They spent nearly three hours basking on the beach in the midsummer afternoon.

Until Boss Jiang had to go back to the first building to deal with housekeeping, before leaving, he told them: "You can use the second building as you like, and there is a small kitchen in the back, which can also be used! You are welcome."

After Zuo Xuanyi and Xiao Yunwei saw off the very enthusiastic Boss Jiang, they sat on the wooden chair shoulder to shoulder, watching the sunset temporarily resting on the waves. After a while, Zuo Xuanyi suddenly said that he felt a little pain in the back of his neck. .

Xiao Yunwei was a little worried about mosquito bites, but after pulling away Zuo Xuanyi's collar, he wanted to laugh and curse and said, "You have been to Penghu, didn't you wear sunscreen? It looks like you got sunburned."

Zuo Xuanyi screamed, "Of course I wiped it, but I didn't wipe the back of my neck! Did you wipe it?"

Xiao Yunwei nodded, looked helplessly at Zuo Xuanyi and yelled, "Who would think of rubbing over there." Xiao Yunwei saw Zuo Xuanyi clutching the back of his neck and screaming for pain, so he dragged him to the shade. "Wipe the exposed areas, I thought you knew."

Zuo Xuanyi slumped his shoulders and said that I don't know. The last time I came here, I was almost inside the house. I only came out to see the sea view when the sun was setting.

They walked quickly back into the house, Xiao Yunwei opened the door, went into the bathroom, washed the towels and wrung them dry, after folding the towels and stepping out of the bathroom, he saw an overly exciting scene.

Zuo Xuanyi took off his shirt and was trying to take a picture of the sunburn on the back of his neck with his mobile phone, complaining that he couldn't align it while taking the picture.

Xiao Yunwei coughed, only for Zuo Xuanyi to turn to look at him and ask, "Take a picture for me? I want to see how serious it is." He didn't mean to put his clothes back on at all.

"No need to take pictures, it's red and swollen." Xiao Yunwei put a towel on the sunburned area, and when Zuo Xuanyi gasped, he asked, "Does it hurt?"

Zuo Xuanyi nodded, with a bit of grievance on his expression.

Xiao Yunwei sighed and said, "I'll go out and buy some aloe vera lotion, wait for me when I come back."

Zuo Xuanyi still nodded, laying his head on the pillow, and squeezed out a sentence: "By the way, help me buy dinner, I want shrimp fried rice."

That night, although Xiao Yunwei didn't think the same way at first, it was a bit of a blessing in the end.

Zuo Xuanyi remained half-naked all night long, sleeping pitifully on his stomach before going to bed, with the quilt not covering his upper body, and the white quilt only covering his perfectly curved buttocks.

Good day, beautiful scenery.

But Zuo Xuanyi was sunburned, and said he wanted to sleep on a bed by himself to avoid pain.

And there is a meeting tomorrow, so I can't do it.

Xiao Yunwei covered the quilt, and cursed the innocent sun and landscape pond in his heart.

In the middle of the night, Zuo Xuanyi got up to go to the bathroom, went back to bed and slept for a while, and then changed to another bed with the quilt in his arms.So much so that when Xiao Yunwei woke up, he found that Zuo Xuanyi was lying on his body, and half of his hands were numb.

Xiao Yunwei carefully moved Zuo Xuanyi to the side, and after the blood circulation became smoother, he gently got up, brushed his teeth and washed his face, intending to wake him up later.

But when he was shaving, Zuo Xuanyi, who was only wearing underwear, staggered into the bathroom, leaned on his shoulder and asked, "What should I do? It still hurts."

Xiao Yunwei saw Zuo Xuanyi's pursed expression from the mirror, wanted to laugh, but felt that the other party was very pitiful.Why did I get sunburned just after I arrived, and I don’t usually get sunburned so quickly when I go to the construction site.

"Why don't you rest today? Shall I go talk to Boss Jiang?"

Zuo Xuanyi shook his head and said, "No one takes a rest because of sunburn."

They washed and changed their clothes respectively, and it wasn't until they were about to go out to buy breakfast that Xiao Yunwei realized that Zuo Xuanyi wasn't really asking him "what should I do if the sunburn is still there", most likely he was just acting like a baby.

But now it seems strange to turn around to appease the other party. Xiao Yunwei stood in front of the refrigerator of the convenience store, closing his eyes and carefully trying to save him.

In the end, he bought German sausages, small tomatoes, eggs and toast, a bottle of fresh milk and a bottle of black tea, and took Zuo Xuanyi, who was still hesitating whether to buy rice balls or oden, back to the homestay.

Half an hour later, Zuo Xuanyi held a plate of freshly made breakfast and screamed in the living room of the second building. After placing the plate on the table by the window, he carefully found several angles to take pictures.

Seeing that the other party was still pressing the phone screen after taking the photo, Xiao Yunwei couldn't help asking: "Shouldn't you eat first?"

"I'll pass it on to Su Chengye first, you don't know, every time he posts Chen Jinghuan's supper on Facebook, I want to strangle him to death."

"If you strangle him, your junior will strangle me to get revenge on you." Xiao Yunwei put his breakfast on the same table and sat down opposite Zuo Xuanyi.

"Chen Jinghuan can't beat you, don't be afraid." Zuo Xuanyi sat down triumphantly to have breakfast after passing on the photos, and swiped the phone screen from time to time to see if the other party replied to his message. "I think the standard of this breakfast is super high, definitely better than Chen Jinghuan's."

After hearing this sentence, Xiao Yunwei, who was in a good mood, picked up the toast, helped Zuo Xuanyi spread cream, and brought it to the other party's mouth.

Zuo Xuanyi, who was chewing and chewing contentedly, seemed not to be bothered by the sunburn anymore, and concentrated on eating the unexpectedly good breakfast.

With a good start, after a whole day, Zuo Xuanyi, who was forced to wear a sun hat, didn't protest anything.After Boss Jiang was about to leave with three small flower beds, two small gravel sidewalks and a London-style street lamp, Zuo Xuanyi sat on the wooden chair again and looked at the sunset leisurely, looking in a very good mood.

Xiao Yunwei didn't say much, went back to his room and took out the black tea and fresh milk he bought in the morning from the refrigerator, made iced milk tea, walked to Zuo Xuanyi and sat down.

As soon as Zuo Xuanyi turned around, he only saw the mug in Xiao Yunwei's hand. He poked his head in and exclaimed, "Is there ice milk tea? Are you a lamp genie, Xiao Yunwei?"

"Sorry, I don't smoke."

"Thank you, this joke is very refreshing." Zuo Xuanyi took the mug and took a sip contentedly.

"I'm going back tomorrow. Yao Shiqian sent a text message saying that if you don't want brown sugar cakes, you need ice cream cakes, and if you don't want tea eggs, you need peanut candies." Xiao Yunwei finished in one breath, and attached his own response, "I told him that I will not pass through Magong City tomorrow. I can only bring home the souvenirs available at the airport.”

Zuo Xuanyi put down the mug, applauded Xiao Yunwei: "Very good, last time he thought I bought it badly! As long as you have something to eat, you don't think so!"

"Speaking of the last time," Xiao Yunwei coughed, "The last time you came to Penghu was for the case of Boss Jiang."

Zuo Xuanyi nodded and said, "It's a big mess. Fortunately, Boss Jiang is very good at communicating."

Xiao Yunwei was silent for a while, Zuo Xuanyi didn't speak, but Zuo Xuanyi unconsciously leaned his head on Xiao Yunwei's shoulder again, as if he was saving his strength and going to have a big meal on the street, like a lover Habitual dependence.

"After you came back from Penghu last time, you said you were going to confess to me..."

Zuo Xuanyi let out an "um" sound, and didn't move, let alone speak.

"Although it's silly to ask, I still want to ask." Xiao Yunwei put his arms around his senior's shoulders and asked in a low voice, "Why did you suddenly think of confessing to me?"

Zuo Xuanyi raised his head and blinked, "I thought you didn't intend to ask this question in your life, and you wanted to say that I had the answer ready and you didn't ask."

"I wanted to ask when I went to Chicago last time, but the schedule was so full that you fell asleep as soon as you arrived at the hotel..."

"There is no way, Texiu can only invite you for six days, and it will take more than two days to fly back and forth," Zuo Xuanyi wanted to continue, but was interrupted by Xiao Yunwei's "So what is your answer?"He pouted and said after a while, "Because I want to have dinner with you."

Xiao Yunwei looked at each other and frowned quietly.

"It's not just eating, uh, it's just eating..." Zuo Xuanyi cleared his throat, and said clearly in a tone that had been rehearsed many times: "Before going to Penghu, my brother told me about my Being particularly capricious towards acquaintances."

Xiao Yunwei nodded and waited.

"I used to think that my relationship with you and Jing Huan was...to be self-willed after getting acquainted, but after I arrived in Penghu, I found it was different."

Zuo Xuanyi took a sip of milk tea, pursed his lips, and said: "The day the boss baked fresh oysters for me, I found that I just wanted to eat with you, although you should stop me when I eat No.30 oysters." ,"

"You ate thirty?"

"Hey, that's not the point," Zuo Xuanyi waved his hand and skipped the non-point topic, "I dreamed that you went to dinner with me that night. I used to have dinner with Jing Huan, he was afraid that I would starve to death, Will share my food."

"Um."

"I used to find someone to eat because I didn't want to eat alone. It doesn't matter if I find Jing Huan or Yao Shiqian, and it was the same at the beginning. Although you are a newcomer and I don't know me well, it's good to have someone to eat with me. But that day I found out , even if you don’t eat alone... Oh, and Boss Jiang is super good at chatting, so he is not cold at all! But if the people around you are not you, the food will not be so delicious. Ah, I’m not saying that roasted oysters are not delicious, really It's delicious, it's a pity the boss didn't bake it this time..."

"Xuan Yi, you digress."

Zuo Xuanyi, who was called by his name directly, licked his lips, returned to the original topic and continued: "I dreamed that I went to dinner with you the other day, and when I woke up, I felt very lost. You can't accompany me to dinner, but I have already found out that You are different. Then I talked with you on the phone for several days until I fell asleep, do you remember?"

"Remember."

"I found it more attractive to me than eating roasted oysters," Zuo Xuanyi saw Xiao Yunwei's eyes narrowed, and quickly said, "I didn't mean to compare you with roasted oysters!"

Xiao Yunwei nodded, motioning for the other party to continue.

"You are different from others." Zuo Xuanyi nodded, and repeated it again before saying, "That's it."

Xiao Yunwei stared at him for a long time before letting out all the breath he was holding.

Zuo Xuanyi stretched out his hand and pushed the other party, and narrowed his eyes with a smile, "Are you nervous?" Seeing that Xiao Yunwei didn't answer, he went on to say, "Hey, I was also nervous at the beginning. I was still a little shocked when I woke up."

"Oh?"

Zuo Xuanyi smiled and said: "I found that I like you, and it's not the same as the kind of liking for acquaintances..."

Zuo Xuanyi talked for a while, giving an example that although he loves the dishes cooked by Chen Jinghuan very much, the point is that the dishes are not people, do you understand?

Xiao Yunwei listened for a while, then nodded with a smile.

Seeing Xiao Yunwei smile, Zuo Xuanyi also laughed.

"So, Xuan Yi, you ate thirty fresh oysters that night, and you only dreamed of having dinner with me, and you were still shocked when you woke up?"

Xiao Yunwei was smiling, but Zuo Xuanyi was sure that there was a knife in that smile.He faintly felt his scalp go numb, so he could only nod stiffly.

"Isn't it a dream? Or, what did we do after dinner?"

Zuo Xuanyi's eyes widened, he didn't expect that Chun'meng more than a year ago would be guessed like this.He took a breath and shook his head desperately.

Xiao Yunwei pulled the other party to stand up, and announced with a smile: "Then we will eat grilled fresh oysters for dinner, and see if you can sleep peacefully and have a dream at night."

"Wait!" Zuo Xuanyi blushed and shouted, "That's different! And I got sunburned, sunburned!"

"Don't worry, you won't touch the sunburn if you do it on your stomach."

Xiao Yunwei smiled, Zuo Xuanyi also laughed after struggling for a while, and the two of them laughed together in the sticky sea breeze.

When the sunset completely fell into the deep blue ocean, Zuo Xuanyi was also hugged in his lover's arms, kissing gently like the light spots of the moonlight on the sea.

"Eh……"

"Um?"

"...Then are we going to eat grilled fresh oysters? There is a very famous one, so if you go too late, there will be no seats."

"... Zuo Xuanyi, can you be more disturbing?"
