Did the iceberg crane melt?

Unlike Xiao Taoguo, who enjoys the strict discipline of his master, Helai has been a little depressed these few days.Although Ning Zhengrong slept in his house, the time they spent together did not increase much.He is busy with the gallery during the day, and discusses new magic ideas with the team at night, only showing up when he is cooking for himself.

Of course, eating together and listening to Zheng Rong talk at the dinner table is still very pleasant.

He wanted to stay with Ning Zhengrong for a while longer, but he didn't know how to express this wish to the other party.In the past, they were on a world tour, and the two rarely met, and they could only communicate by phone, but now they are right in front of them, but they are out of reach.

Near noon, Ning Zhengrong came back, poked his head in the study, and said, "Hexian, let's eat vegetarian assorted cold noodles at noon!" Seeing He coming to put down his pen, he hurriedly stopped him, "I'll call you when I'm done."

Crane still followed to the kitchen.Ning Zhengrong stopped him at the door, and stretched out his hand to make a gesture, "In this line, immortals are not allowed to enter."

He came to think, why Zhengrong didn't let me into the kitchen, I can cook too, and he always said it was delicious, are those all white lies?

What Ning Zhengrong thought was, just kidding, how can He Xian be stained with this oily smell with me around, and if I don't show some personal value, how can I find an excuse to stay at his house?

The two had their own thoughts, but they remained calm on their faces.He Lai sat outside the kitchen, chatting with Ning Zhengrong who was cooking.It was said to be small talk, but it was actually Ning Zhengrong talking, and He came to listen, occasionally responding with a few words.This is their usual way of getting along, from childhood to adulthood.

In private, Ning Zhengrong would gossip with He Lai about some celebrity anecdotes from time to time. First, he knew that He Lai didn't know them, and he would never reveal the secrets. Second, he enjoyed the closeness of two people sharing secrets.For example, today, he shared with Helai the details of Werther's support for Xiao Taoguo anonymously on Weibo, and he was beaming with joy.

"You said that if Taoguo knew that his so-called 'number one fan' was the owner of his family in the future, would he cry in fright? I really want to reveal the news in person, his expression must be very exciting!"

After Helai listened silently, he asked, "Zhengrong, what kind of relationship are you talking about between 'owner' and 'pet'?"

Ning Zhengrong didn't expect that Helai would be interested in this, and said with a smile, "This is just an excuse for Werther's self-esteem. The dog and the owner are all sexual. The two of them are actually lovers, and they have been living together for more than a year. .” Thinking resentfully in his heart, we can be regarded as semi-cohabiting now, but we are not lovers.

It's really hard for He Lai to understand, isn't it an insult to treat people like dogs?

That Xiao Taoguo was treated as a pet dog by her boyfriend, while she was held high on the altar by the person she liked.Of these two extremes, it's hard to say which one is more uncomfortable.

Ning Zhengrong put the noodles on the table, seeing He Lai thoughtful, he asked, "What are you thinking?" He bent down, his eyes were level with He Lai, and said with a smile, "I told you just now, I heard Even if, you don’t need to understand those heavy stuff.”

He sat down across from Helai, and joked again, "Why, you're moved too? Then what kind of pet do you want? A pet that can go up to the hall or down to the kitchen, can earn money, knows how to housekeeper, and is especially virtuous. Do you like it or not?"

He Lai said flatly, "You have to save money first."

No way, what does this mean?Ning Zhengrong panicked for a while, and gave Helai three of the four chopsticks in his hand.

He Xianren, who has always regarded money as nothing, actually wants to save money? The word "money" coming out of his mouth is scary enough!And in context, does he really consider keeping a pet?Who to raise?

Ning Zhengrong always regarded himself as an expert in interpreting the "Crane Language", and He Xian knew what he was thinking when he moved his eyelids, but this time he was really dumbfounded.

Hexian wouldn't have a crush, would he? !Then what should I do!

Ning Zhengrong looked back and thought about it, the two of them had been good friends for more than ten years, and they had never talked about emotional topics with each other. He didn't even know what type the other party liked, or in other words, before that, he thought He Never fall in love with someone at all.I was guilty of being a thief and didn't dare to go one step further, but Hexian never mentioned it, which seemed a bit unreasonable.

Helai does not talk much, but it is not a language barrier. He will care about his body, will take the initiative to understand his preferences, seriously comment on magic performances, and ask him when he will come to play at home-although he often offers it to his door.

Ning Zhengrong took the chopsticks from Helai and asked him with a forced smile if the noodles were good. Helai nodded and said they were good.Ning Zhengrong himself didn't know how to eat, his chopsticks stirred the noodles in the bowl, and his mind was in a mess.

He tentatively asked, "He Xian, you have saved a lot, what are you doing with the money?"

Crane came to see him and said nothing.

Ning Zhengrong's heart ached, and his voice, which he tried to calm down, still trembled slightly, "Do you really want to keep a pet?"

"Raising peacocks."

"……what?"

Ning Zhengrong was still wondering whether Hexian liked soft, slimy cats or smart golden retrievers. He was stunned when he heard the unexpected answer of "peacock". Could it be that the pets he mentioned were real small animals?

He asked suspiciously, "Is the peacock you are talking about a very expensive species? You are worth several million now, isn't that enough?"

"Yeah." He said, "Not everyone can take care of themselves."

Ning Zhengrong was entangled in the explosion, whether this "peacock" was an animal or a human!

"I didn't even know you liked peacocks so much."

He Lai put down the bowl and chopsticks, and looked at Ning Zhengrong intently, "Because he is so radiant, there is nothing more beautiful than him in the world."

Ning Zhengrong's handsome face turned red, and he said in his heart, no, the charm of the immortal is too great, my heart is going to explode!And vaguely thought, hey, aren't we talking about keeping pets?Why am I blushing?

"I, I'm going to wash the dishes. That... Is the dishwasher I bought for you useful?"

"It's useful."

He came to see Ning Zhengrong got up and ran into the kitchen in a hurry, he was worried, did he scare Zhengrong by saying these things suddenly?

Although he wanted Zhengrong to know his intentions, if he confessed his feelings without warning, it would have too much of an impact on him, and he might break up the relationship and never see each other again. This is a risk that Helai cannot bear.He thought about it again and again, and felt that he could only proceed step by step, find a suitable opportunity to leak a word first, and see Zheng Rong's reaction.

The way Zheng Rong blushed just now was really too cute.The shy expression that is only shown to herself is a treasure that I want to cherish in my heart for the rest of my life.

But in the next second, Ning Zhengrong tried his best to hide his panic, which hit Helai hard again.

The tip of the iceberg that has remained immobile for thousands of years on the sea will not let anyone see its full picture eroded by the undercurrent in the depths of the ocean.

Love is really a difficult science.Two strangers who meet by chance may spark a spark of love, and he and Zheng Rong have been the closest and most important people to each other for more than ten years, and their mutual affection has long been irreplaceable, but There is no way to go any further.

Zhengrong, what does he think of me?

In the kitchen, Ning Zhengrong washed an apple and skillfully cut the flesh into rabbit-like pieces.When he brought a plate full of beautiful rabbit apples to Helai, his expression had returned to normal, as if the momentary gaffe just now was just an illusion.

"By the way, Hexian, I hired a special person to take care of the gallery to ensure it's reliable. I won't have to sit on stage every day in the future."

"Sit on the table..."

"Wrong, wrong, it's a shift!"

Crane would like to ask, will we have more time together?But he knew that the world Ning Zhengrong lived in was much bigger than himself, and as a friend, he had no right to restrain him like this.

Zhengrong is his starry sky, and to Zhengrong, he is just one of the stars.

He Lai pondered for a moment, then asked, "Any plans for the near future?"

"Well... there is an interview with a TV station, a magazine cover, and two endorsements..." Ning Zhengrong counted for a long time, and explained, "I was flying outside a while ago, and the domestic work is accumulating more and more. , I’m going to settle the accounts in one go, and then I can conceive new magic with peace of mind.”

Ning Zhengrong noticed that the aura around the other party had cooled down slightly, and immediately offered a bright smile, "I should stay in China for a long time, after all, Beijing has my concerns."

He Lai's eyes became warmer, and he said, "Okay."

Ning Zhengrong was complacent about his sensitivity to capture the subtle fluctuations of Helai's emotions, and felt that the deliberately slightly ambiguous pun just now was excellent. The superficial "caring" was a gallery, but the essence was caring about Helai.I don't know how much taste this fairy can taste?

However, Helai didn't hear his well-intentioned witty words at all.

Zhengrong's smile is so beautiful, like a peacock with golden feathers spreading its tail in front of his eyes, everything in the world is eclipsed.If he smiled at me like this every day at home, I would definitely lose sleep at night.

How can I let him know that I am so tossed and turned for him, fascinated?
