The second half of the dinner was spent chatting between Zhao Jiayin and Ye Wangning.

Chi Yun couldn't insert a few words, he had doubts in his heart, although Ye Wangning didn't show any abnormality, but Chi Yun always felt as if something was ignored by him.

While eating dinner absent-mindedly, he used the cover of the tablecloth to send WeChat messages to his friends who used to be in the studio under the table.

The other party didn't reply for a long time, until the dinner was over, Zhao Jiayin asked Aunt Jiang to clean up the guest room, Chi Yun came back to her senses, stopped and said: "No need, we will go back later."

Without waiting for Zhao Jiayin's reaction, Aunt Jiang said in surprise: "You haven't been home for a long time, why are you in such a hurry to go back?"

Chi Yun couldn't find a reasonable excuse for a while, so he hesitated and replied casually: "My sister is at home by herself, I don't worry about her."

In fact, he had just prepared enough food and water before going out, so there was no worry at all.

Ye Wangning glanced at him lightly, but didn't agree, and of course he didn't refute.

"Okay, why don't you just bring your sister back next time?" Zhao Jiayin didn't care too much, and didn't force him to stay, "Then go after you eat the fruit, Aunt Jiang specially bought a lot of your favorite food."

Chi Yun took a look at Ye Wangning and saw that he had no intention of objecting, so he agreed.

Zhao Jiayin told Aunt Jiang a few words, and asked Chi Yun to take Ye Wangning upstairs to watch a movie or play something, then turned around and went to the yard to play with her small garden.

For a moment, only Chi Yun and Ye Wangning were left in the living room.

Ye Wangning sat quietly on the sofa drinking tea, with lowered eyes, as if he had no intention of breaking the silence.

So Chi Yun spoke first: "Do you want to watch a movie?"

The tea is old Pu-erh tea, with a slightly bitter taste. Seeing Ye Wangning take a sip slowly, Chi Yun put down the teacup with a frown, and then replied: "No."

Chi Yun thought about it, and then asked: "Then you want to visit my studio?"

This time Ye Wangning didn't refuse again.

Although it is said to be a studio, but because it was converted from a study, and Chi Yun was rarely at home in his third year of high school, most of the time he spent time in the studio outside the school, which was not often used, so the decoration was clean and simple, and it seemed a bit empty.

The first thing you see when you enter the door is the easel in the center. Even though Chi Yun hasn't come back for a long time, Aunt Jiang still cleans up the studio, and the items are just as they were when he didn't leave. But orderly.

All kinds of picture frames were hung on the four walls, and Chi Yun sat on a light wooden wicker chair, staggering.

Ye Wangning didn't sit down, he started from the picture frame hanging at the door just now, and looked at it one by one.

As soon as the silence fell, Chi Yun always wanted to say something. It wasn't that he was talkative, but the atmosphere of silence made people feel a little awkward, so he thought for a while and found a topic.

"Do you know Gibran?"

Ye Wangning paused when reaching out to touch the picture frame, and it took a long time before he answered, "Yes."

Chi Yun said: "I read a book that described the correspondence between him and Maya. I only remember a rough idea. In the first letter Meia wrote to Gibran, if she was still in New York, she would definitely visit Gibran's studio."

Ye Wangning did not speak, Chi Yun waited for a while, and continued to say: "Gibron wrote back to her, saying: Could it be that you have never visited my studio? Behind the coat of memory, isn't there an invisible body of memory? I The studio is my universe, my friend, my museum, my heaven, and my hell.”

"To put it simply, Gibran's studio is his soul," Chi Yun said in a joking and relaxed tone as much as possible, "Me too, so, welcome to visit my soul?"

This topic is obviously not interesting, because Ye Wangning still didn't speak.

Chi Yun had already begun to regret opening his mouth. He hesitated for a while, and when he decided to change the topic to make up for it, Ye Wangning suddenly opened his mouth.

"Really?" His voice sounded a little casual, "Then thank you for your invitation."

Finally, it was a response, Chi Yun tilted her head, answered "You're welcome", and was about to say something more, when suddenly a WeChat notification sounded.

Chi Yun clicked on WeChat, and the person who sent the WeChat message was Yu Weiran, his friend in the studio in high school.

The previous one was the WeChat message he just sent over dinner, and Yu Weiran replied three times, all of which were voice messages.

Chi Yun wanted to switch to text, but accidentally played the voice directly.

Yu Weiran's grinning voice was very clear in the empty and quiet room: I'm here, you finally found me?I miss you all.

It was followed by a series of loud kissing sounds.

Chi Yun curled up her hands and feet in embarrassment, her scalp was numb, and she didn't dare to look up at Ye Wangning's expression.

Yu Weiran and him have the same sexual orientation. As early as the high school training camp, they knew each other's sexual orientation because of an oolong.Although Yu Weiran is tall and full of tendons, he is born with a pure zero. After having an oolong, he thinks of Chi Yun as a good sister on his own initiative.

"Hahahaha," Chi Yun looked up at Ye Wangning in embarrassment, and added meaninglessly, "My friend was just joking, I made a mistake."

Ye Wangning didn't even bother to give him a look, turned his head away, and ignored him.

Chi Yun's description became darker and darker, so he simply stopped explaining. He clicked on Yu Weiran's voice and converted it into text.

Article 1: What handsome guy?How handsome?Is it [-]?

Article [-]: I don’t seem to have heard of this name, what’s wrong?

Chi Yun casually replied a few sentences to fool him, and Yu Weiran didn't continue the topic, but instead talked about that he was going back to Yecheng at the end of next month, and asked him to come out to play at that time.

Yu Weiran has always been a talkative and playful character, once chatting with Chi Yun, he couldn't stop, and complained to him about his new boyfriend, Chi Yun couldn't keep up with his typing speed, so he was in a hurry to reply.

He didn't notice that Ye Wangning's expression turned cold again.

The continuous WeChat conversation lasted about ten rounds, and Ye Wangning finally spoke: "Is it embarrassing to be alone with me?"

Just as Chi Yun finished replying, "Please make room for each other", he was startled when he heard the words, and replied reflexively: "No?"

A "no" was obviously too flimsy, so he quickly put down his phone and added: "Sorry, my friend sent a WeChat message suddenly, and I was replying to him just now."

Ye Wangning pursed her lips tightly and looked straight at Chi Yun.This inevitably made Chi Yun a little guilty. Every time he was busy with his work and didn't have time to play with his sister, her sister would jump on the bed without blinking, looking at him with accusing eyes.

The same.

"It's really not embarrassment," Chi Yun blinked, making a pitiful look, and he racked his brains to explain, "I'm just... a bit socially phobic, so sometimes I want to talk about it, and I'm afraid the atmosphere will be too silent, but Sometimes I can’t tell.”

I've kissed them all, this reason is not completely convincing, so Chi Yun said again: "Maybe not, maybe I'm too slow."

"We haven't known each other for a long time, so," Ye Wangning remained silent, and Chi Yun tried his best to change the euphemistic way, "It's not aimed at you, and I'm really not embarrassed. Once you get acquainted, you will know gone."

He said a lot, Ye Wangning was finally willing to speak, just one word: "Yes."

Chi Yun couldn't hear Ye Wangning's emotions, he thought for a few seconds, and felt a little frustrated, only blaming himself for not knowing how to read words and expressions: "I also thought about changing this kind of personality, but it was so difficult."

This time there are a few more words, Ye Wangning said: "No need to change."

After a pause, he said, "Very good."

Chi Yun didn't quite understand, what's good?

This question continued until before going to bed at home.

Chi Yun ate too many cherries and mangoes. While patting his stomach to digest, he tentatively sent Ye Wangning a wechat message: Are you asleep?

Ye Wangning replied in seconds: Didn't sleep, baby, what's wrong?

Chi Yun stared at the word "Baby" and his shoulders shook. No matter how many times he saw the word, he couldn't get used to it, let alone imagine Ye Wangning's expression and voice calling "Baby".

He thought for a while, edited a long paragraph and sent it. In order to avoid Ye Wangning's suspicion, he even forged a story about a mistake that happened when the company was in contact with a colleague because of social phobia.

Chi Yun typed the last sentence several times, then deleted it, and finally sent it hesitantly: Is there something wrong with my personality, do I need to change it?

Ye Wangning's reply was not too fast this time, it took about 10 minutes.

He replied: You must, I think you have to be more outgoing.But where do so many symptoms come from, all social phobias are deceptive, don't watch this kind of accepting psychological hints every day, be good.

Sure enough, Chi Yun looked at the listless monstera on the window sill, and the monstera that had only opened two pieces also withered.

Ye Wangning said that there is no need to change it, it's good, maybe it's just that he doesn't know him well, so it's hard to say anything in person.

But once in front of familiar netizens, there are some things that have to be said, just like those sent over, maybe Ye Wangning himself thinks that he is mediocre and thinks too much.

Chi Yun hugged the pillow and stayed for a while before realizing that she hadn't replied to Ye Wangning yet.

He turned on the screen and found that Ye Wangning had sent another message a few minutes ago: Baby, my WeChat cash withdrawal didn't arrive, can you lend me five thousand lines?

Seeing that Chi Yun didn't reply, he sent another question mark 2 minutes ago:?

Chi Yun immediately transferred [-] to him, and then replied: "Yeah, okay, I didn't see it just now, so I'm sorry."

Ye Wangning quickly accepted the transfer: It's okay baby, go to bed early, good night.

There is no mention of when the money will be paid back.

Chi Yun didn't mind either, he said good night, sent another moon emoji, and then closed the WeChat background program.

Even though he said good night, Chi Yun turned off the light and tossed and turned on the bed, still unable to fall asleep.

He sat up, stared at the closed door for a while, tiptoed and quietly got out of bed, and decided to hug his sister to sleep together.

The room was pitch black, and the only light came from the faint moonlight cast through the veil. Chi Yun opened the door, and unexpectedly bumped into a black figure standing outside the door.

Chi Yun's first reaction was to take two steps back, but soon, he realized that Ye Wangning could only be standing outside the door at this time.

The black figure spoke first: "Are you still asleep?"

Chi Yun turned sideways, signaled Ye Wangning to come in, and turned on the light in the bedroom: "Get ready to sleep."

The light came on suddenly, and Ye Wangning squinted his eyes because of the dazzling light, perhaps because of the dazzling light, he frowned slightly, then returned to his usual expression, and said in a flat tone: "It is easy to lose hair when staying up late. "

Didn't you sleep too?After Chi Yun raised his head and glanced at the top of Ye Wangning's head, he swallowed these words back.

"I'm going to sleep right away," he repeated. "Why are you standing at the door? Is there something wrong?"

Ye Wangning gave a "hmm" and asked unhurriedly, "Do you have time next Sunday?"

Chi Yun said cautiously and vaguely: "Maybe, I'm not sure yet."

Ye Wangning still looked directly at him, as if he must get an affirmative answer.

So Chi Yun quickly changed his words under such gaze: "It should be fine, I will try my best."

Ye Wangning nodded reservedly, and raised his hand. He held two tickets in his hand. Chi Yun took a closer look and found that they were tickets for the music festival touring Yecheng next week.

Not long ago in the tea room, Chi Yun overheard a complaint from a female colleague, saying that she didn't get a ticket, and she didn't know if she could buy a scalper.

"Is it for me?" Chi Yun pointed at the ticket in his hand, and didn't answer it in a daze.

Ye Wangning corrected Chi Yun's statement: "It's not for you, let's go together."

"Didn't you just wait until you get familiar with it?" He seemed to be talking about something very easy, "Then let's get acquainted."
