soul mate

Qin Zhen’s house is small in size, and the decoration style looks quite simple. There are almost no decorations in the room. The color tone of the whole room is mainly black and white—more white than black, and there are messy piles on the pure black couch. A light blue air-conditioned quilt with floral patterns looks extremely discordant.

The dining room and the living room are connected together, and the glass door facing the entrance is connected to a small balcony. The balcony is empty. Lu Yunqi walked over and looked through the door, and saw a potted flower standing alone in the corner, still growing. Yes, the leaves look like some kind of rose.

There is a layer of dust on the top of the TV hanging on the wall in the living room. The remote control on the cabinet directly below looks like it hasn’t been used for a long time. There is a set of cups in the transparent cabinet next to the TV. The cup that Qin Zhen gave him just now was taken from here.

Going in along the passage next to the restaurant is the bathroom. Opposite the bathroom is actually a small courtyard. Qin Zhen hung some clothes in the courtyard. Lu Yunqi thought of the rose flowers on the balcony, so he opened the door of the courtyard, curiously. I poked my head out to have a look, but this time I only saw a pile of sanitary tools in the corner, nothing else.

Further in is the study and bedroom, the bedroom is the innermost, Lu Yunqi didn't want to disturb Qin Zhen, so he walked around the door of the study and the bedroom before returning to the living room, sitting on the sofa with nothing to do, and finally ran to the balcony after thinking about it Go up and look at the pot of rose flowers.

I don't know what kind of rose that pot is. The branches are very thin, and they were guided to wrap around a simple support. Lu Yunqi saw a few old branches with a darker color. Some of them were still small and stood there tremblingly.Lu Yunqi squatted there looking at it for a while, and suddenly found a label hanging on the back of the rose, so he reached out to pick it up and looked at it. On it was a line of beautiful English: Lady of Shalott.

When Qin Zhen came out of the study, he felt a little strange that he didn't see Lu Yunqi.Is this kid leaving first?Thinking like this, he tentatively called out twice: "Lu Yunqi?" Then he heard a sound coming from the balcony.

Qin Zhen walked to the balcony, and soon saw Lu Yunqi appearing in front of the glass door. The young man opened the glass door: "I'm sorry! I saw a pot of roses here, so..."

Qin Zhen smiled at him and said it's okay: "That, it was given by Wu Qingqing when I first moved here. After raising it for so many years, the leaves have grown a lot, but it doesn't bloom. What do you want to eat at noon?"

Lu Yunqi naturally replied: "It's all right."

Qin Zhen asked again: "What are your plans for the afternoon? Going back to school or...?"

Lu Yunqi thought for a while and asked: "...do you have time this afternoon? There is a new movie released recently..."

Qin Zhen nodded: "OK."

Lu Yunqi didn't react for a while, and stared at him blankly.

Qin Zhen patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "Don't you want to go to the movies? I said yes. Or did you change your mind?"

Lu Yunqi quickly shook his head: "No!"

Qin Zhen asked, "Which movie theater do you want to go to?"

Lu Yunqi said: "It's all fine."

Qin Zhen thought for a while and said, "Then let's go to the one near the school. I remember that there is a good private restaurant nearby. Let's go there for lunch? How about it?"

Lu Yunqi naturally had no objection, so the matter was settled like this.

The dishes in the private restaurant were delicious. Qin Zhen and Lu Yunqi were worried about ordering too many dishes, but in the end, all three or five dishes were completely eaten, and they both felt a little overwhelmed.

The movie theater is on the top floor of the shopping mall opposite the private restaurant. Qin Zhen and Lu Yunqi did not take the elevator, but took a few extra steps and walked up the escalator level by level.There are people coming and going in the shopping mall on weekends, and the signs and advertisements of various promotions and discounts are everywhere, which makes people dazzled.

It was only ten past one o'clock when we arrived at the theater on the top floor. Lu Yunqi watched the movie and bought a ticket for 02:30 after consulting Qin Zhen.

Next to the theater is a video game mall, the lights inside are dim, and the noise is loud.Qin Zhen didn't have the slightest interest in going shopping, so Lu Yunqi asked, "Why don't we go play for a while?"

Qin Zhen hesitated for a moment. He had never been in a video game city since he was a child, so he had no idea what it was like inside.But there is nothing else to do at the moment, so Qin Zhen finally nodded.

Lu Yunqi took his hand and walked in. Qin Zhen hardly broke free, and followed him honestly to the service desk. Watching Lu Yunqi buy a handful of game coins, the waiter took a small box from the side to help him put the game coins away. After packing it up, Lu Yunqi continued to walk inside with the box in one hand and Qin Zhen in the other.

"What do you want to play?" Lu Yunqi asked while walking, "Racing? Shooting? Shooting?"

Qin Zhen shook his head: "What do you want to play? Just follow your hobbies."

Lu Yunqi frowned slightly and asked, "...you don't like this kind of place?"

"No," Qin Zhen was a little embarrassed, "I've never been here before."

"Haven't you been here?" Lu Yunqi was a little surprised.Although the video game city is not as popular as KTV and movie theaters, it can be regarded as one of the gathering places for young people, especially for boys.So Lu Yunqi couldn't help asking: "Didn't you play it when you were in school?"

"Well." Qin Zhen replied, "When we were studying... there were not many such video game cities."

When he was in elementary school and junior high school, there were more crude private game halls in his hometown. Parents and teachers regarded them as scourges, and they always refused to go in. Naturally, Qin Zhen, a good student, never went there; Internet cafes gradually emerged in high school. However, Qin Zhen's family bought a computer early for him to study and search information, and he was nervous in high school, and he lived in school, so he rarely had time to go out; when he had time in college, he lost interest in these entertainments, and occasionally passed by A colorful video game city, and I don't want to go in and take a look.

Lu Yunqi said: "Then I'll take you around first!" As he spoke, he led Qin Zhen forward, and Qin Zhen followed behind him, watching him pointing to the various machines and introducing himself.

"This is a shooting game, a bit like CS...have you ever played CS?"

"heard about it."

"...This one is for playing drums, just follow the prompts on the screen and hit hard; that one is for holding dolls."

"I can see it. Can you catch it?"

"Normally you can't catch it. . . . Do you like it?"

"……I'm just asking."

The innermost part of the video game city is a row of shooting machines, and the two on the right are already being played. Lu Yunqi said to Qin Zhen: "This is a shooting machine, and the score is scored according to the number of goals. Do you want to play?"

Seeing that Qin Zhen didn't refuse, Lu Yunqi quickly put three coins into the machine on the far left, and the shooting machine immediately started counting down, and soon a basketball rolled down.Qin Zhen picked up one of the balls and tossed it lightly—it was crooked.

Naturally, Lu Yunqi would not be idle. He reached out to grab a ball and tried it, but the result was no better than Qin Zhen.Seeing that Qin Zhen's second shot went crooked again, Lu Yunqi also picked up a basketball again, lightly tossed it - and scored.

Lu Yunqi was overjoyed, and turned to look at Qin Zhen. Qin Zhen immediately took that smiling expression as a provocation.Qin Zhen hummed softly, picked up the ball and threw it at the basket—and even scored.

The two stood in front of the shooting machine and played for a while before stopping. Qin Zhen was slightly out of breath, and Lu Yunqi asked, "Do you still want to play?"

Qin Zhen shook his head, and Lu Yunqi took his hand and walked towards another machine very naturally: "What else do you want to play? Ah, that is to push coins..."

After spending more than an hour in the video game city, Lu Yunqi looked at the last game coin in the box, and simply took it out and put it into Qin Zhen's hands. Qin Zhen looked at him puzzled, and Lu Yunqi said, "I'll keep it for you as a souvenir. It’s the first time I’m calling to Play City.”

Qin Zhen was taken aback for a moment, but soon came back to his senses, and put the game coin into his pocket: "Okay."

With 10 minutes left before the movie came into play, Lu Yunqi ran to buy two glasses of Sprite and a box of popcorn. Qin Zhen followed him and wanted to pay, but he stopped him: "You paid for the movie ticket." , I should pay for this."

Hearing this, Qin Zhen had no choice but to take back the wallet, and reached out to take the Sprite that Lu Yunqi handed over.The drink was iced, so it was cold in his hand, and the popcorn was very dry, Qin Zhen ate a few of them and didn't do anything again, but Lu Yunqi happily took it in his hand, and waited until he entered the living room to make it ready. Then I put the Sprite aside and ate popcorns one by one with relish.

Not long after the movie started playing, all the lights in the theater went out, and Qin Zhen felt someone touch his left hand in the darkness.He retracted his hand subconsciously, only to realize that the one sitting on his left was Lu Yunqi, so he thought for a while and then put his hand back, but Lu Yunqi remained silent for a long time.

After more than half of the movie, the warm touch came from the back of his left hand again. Qin Zhen froze and held back his body, and Lu Yunqi's hand quickly covered his left hand completely.The palms of the two of them were similar in size, and Lu Yunqi's palm was very hot. Qin Zhen exhaled quietly, and slowly relaxed his body.

After waiting for a long time, Lu Yunqi moved again. This time he was much bolder, and directly turned Qin Zhen's left hand over with the palm facing up. Qin Zhen let him move while wondering, and soon Lu Yunqi moved himself The desired action is completed.

Palms facing each other, fingers intertwined, Lu Yunqi's back rested on the armrest of the seat, Qin Zhen's forearm pressed against his, and his palms were held tightly.

Qin Zhen felt that his face was a little hot, and he didn't pay attention to what was said in the movie after that. When the light came on after the movie, he broke away from Lu Yunqi's hand, and said very unnaturally: "Let's go."

There was a deep smile in Lu Yunqi's voice: "Okay."
