Yep, it's that shit!

"Painter Xia, if you don't get up, you will be late!"

As soon as the words fell, Xia Bing only felt a gust of cool wind blowing by.Where's the quilt?Where did the quilt go? !

"Are you willing to open your eyes? I have called you several times! Get up and wash up, breakfast is on the table."

Xia Bing rubbed his sleepy eyes, looked at the time, "The art exhibition doesn't start until one o'clock, it's only nine o'clock now!"

"Don't you know how long it will take you to pack it up? If you are not afraid of getting stuck on the road, you can continue to sleep."

"Okay, okay, get up."

Xia Bing moved out of bed like a caterpillar, walked up to Shen Xing and gave him a good morning kiss.

Fortunately, Shen Xing called Xia Bing up early in the morning, and the two arrived at the exhibition hall 10 minutes before the exhibition.

"Bing Bing, I want to buy that painting, why don't I sell it?!" Chen Wei has been Xia Bing's number one fan for the past few years, and he would buy two or three works in every exhibition.

"If it's not for sale, it's not for sale. Why ask so many questions?" Xia Bing looked at the not-for-sale item, and spent five years making Shen Xing's head portrait out of newspaper fragments.How could he be willing to sell such a work of painstaking effort to others?

Chen Wei curled his lips, "Okay, then I want these two pictures."

"Go and talk to the staff, why are you looking for me?"

"I'm lazy, you go and tell me."

Xia Bing shook his head, "I really can't do anything about you."

"Captain Shen, long time no see."

"Manager Feng, please stay safe."

After Xia Bing came back from communicating with the staff, he happened to see Feng Tao greeting Shen Xing.

These two people who used to be friends rarely even meet now, and even when they meet, they are called as distantly as before.Feng Tao has always regarded Shen Xing as his imaginary enemy all these years, thinking that if it wasn't for him, the person standing next to Xia Bing must be himself.

"Xia Bing, congratulations, you have held another successful art exhibition." Feng Tao turned around and saw Xia Bing, with a smile on his face instantly.

"Thank you. I also saw the flower basket you sent. I'm sorry to ask you to pay for it every time."

"I must join your exhibition."

"There are drinks over there, you can help yourself."

Eight years have passed in a blink of an eye, and everyone is in their thirties.Although Xia Bing has occasional contacts with Feng Tao, he will try to avoid suspicion as much as possible, and will only meet him when many people are present together.

Every year Feng Tao would ask if Xia Bing was still with Shen Xing, always thinking that given their personalities, it would not last long.But after so many years, it seems that they have begun to accept the fact that Xia Bing and Shen Xing will always be together.

After the exhibition, Shen Xing drove Xia Bing home, and Xia Bing fell asleep in the passenger seat as soon as he got in the car.

It was already the second day when Xia Bing woke up.

"I don't know when I fell asleep." Xia Bing looked at Shen Xing who was fully dressed, "Do you have to be on duty today?"

"Did you forget that I was supposed to be on duty yesterday?"

"You are always on duty recently, shouldn't the captain do less work?"

"What do you get to support you if you don't go to work?" Shen Xing kissed Xia Bing on the forehead, "There is breakfast on the table, don't forget to eat it, you drank too much yesterday."

"Come back early from get off work."

"understood."

Xia Bing lay back on the bed, staring at the ceiling.

In the past few months, Shen Xing has always left early and returned late, and the time to see each other has been reduced by more than half than before.I don't know if it's because he has been promoted and needs to work harder to show others. In short, Xia Bing is very dissatisfied with this state.

In the past few years when we were together with Shen Xing, bumps and bumps were always inevitable, but there was no big conflict.

Looking back on the scene of coming out with my parents back then, it was horrific.Xia's mother cried, made trouble and hanged herself three times, but Xia Bing was still not shaken.It can only be said that the estrangement from his parents for so many years has made Xia Bing's heart harder than a rock.

The Xia family had been in trouble for more than half a year, and the two old people didn't want to lose the son they were not close to each other, so they finally compromised.Xia's mother has always blamed herself these years, thinking that they did not give Xia Bing enough care when she was a child, which caused Xia Bing to embark on this "road of no return".

Shen Xing's mother became more and more anxious about his marriage after he turned 30. She was always trying to arrange some blind dates for Shen Xing, but he pushed them away because he was too busy with work.

Xia Bing didn't understand why Shen Xing couldn't come out to his family members like himself. He didn't know that the way of getting along in ordinary families was too different from theirs.

He tried to talk to Shen Xing about coming out a few times, but all of them ended in a cold war. Gradually, Xia Bing was unwilling to bring up the matter of letting him come out.

There is nothing to do at home alone at night, so Xia Bing invites Jiang Yu to have dinner together.

"Now that your art exhibition is over, are you going to take a break for a while?"

"Not necessarily, it depends on your mood."

"My second child is about to turn a year old, shouldn't you draw a portrait of him?"

"Can I say no?"

"Of course not! The boss has already painted, how can the second child not paint?!"

"Then why are you asking me? Make it like I have a choice."

"I'm being polite, hehe."

"Bring him to my house later, I'll draw it earlier, and you can put it in the lobby when you celebrate your birthday."

"No problem! I said you don't want a child? Now that science is so advanced, it's not difficult for you and Shen Xing to have a child."

"I'm still a child, why do I want children? It's not like you don't know that I don't like children."

"Just because you don't like it doesn't mean that Shen Xing doesn't like it!"

"Him? He couldn't even tell his family about our relationship. How could he raise a child with me?"

"Then you two plan to live like this for the rest of your life."

Xia Bing drank a glass of wine and didn't want to continue this topic.

"When you brought your second child, you brought all the diapers and everything. Don't act like the boss. My studio will stink."

"Got it! I was a father at the beginning of the year, so I didn't have enough experience!"

..................................................................

On the day of painting for the second child of Jiang Yu’s family, I changed to Jiang Yu’s house temporarily, because the second child cried non-stop as soon as he arrived at Xia Bing’s house, crying until Xia Bing’s head exploded, so he had to change the venue in the end.

The children were obviously much happier at home, and they cooperated very well during the painting process, and Xia Bing completed the task before dinner.

Jiang Yu asked Xia Bing to have dinner at home, but Xia Bing just wanted to go home and take a hot bath to sleep well.

As soon as Xia Bing opened the door of the house, Xia Bing saw the lights on inside. In his impression, Shen Xing seemed to have said that he would be on the night shift today.

"Bingbing, are you back?"

"Yeah." Xia Bing walked into the kitchen, saw Shen Xing who was busy, walked over and hugged him from behind.

"Go and wash your hands, you can eat right away."

Xia Bing didn't move, "Didn't you say you have an evening shift today?"

"My colleagues asked me to change shifts, so I came back early."

Xia Bing glanced at the candles on the dining table, "Why did you remember to cook? You still made it so romantic, is today a special day?"

"It's been a long time since I cooked for you. You've lost weight recently."

"You also know that you have starved me thin, so you are still not at home."

Shen Xing smiled, "Go wash your hands and sit down."

Xia Bing looked at Shen Xing's table full of dishes, "It's a good thing I didn't eat at Jiang Yu's, otherwise I wouldn't be able to eat your dishes."

"Eat when you're hungry."

"I'm not particularly hungry, I feel a little tired."

"what happened?"

"Tossing with the brats all day today, I don't even know how that guy Jiang Yu dealt with the two brats."

Shen Xing smiled and said, "The boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge."

"Do you like children?" Xia Bing looked directly at Shen Xing.

"like."

"Then do you want children?"

"I know you don't like children, as long as you are by your side, it doesn't matter whether you have children or not."

"Won't you regret it?"

"will not."

"Why so sure?"

"Do you have too many questions? Eat quickly! I have prepared your favorite cheesecake for you, and you can eat it after dinner."

"Oh." Xia Bing really obediently buried himself in his meal.

"It's over!" Xia Bing said vaguely with a mouthful of rice.

Shen Xing was amused by Xia Bing, "Are you here just to eat some cake?"

"What do you mean?! I don't know who restricts me from eating sweets all day long!"

Shen Xing pinched Xia Bing's nose, "Okay, I'll bring it to you right away."

Xia Bing stared at the cake brought out by Shen Xing with a distorted expression.

"This... this cake was robbed?" Xia Bing lost his appetite in an instant as he looked at the crooked and ugly cake.

"I made this myself. Is it that ugly? I think it's okay."

"Er... why did you remember to make cakes when you're fine?"

"If you like to eat, I will learn. I know how much sugar to put in like this."

Xia Bing took the cake, frowning, she really didn't want to eat it!But in order not to hurt Shen Xing who was making a cake for the first time, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and eat it.

"Huh? What is this?" Xia Bing's tongue brushed against a hard object, so afraid that Shen Xing would drop something into it when he was making the cake.

When I took it out, it turned out to be a ring.

Xia Bing smiled, "You're not so old-fashioned, are you?"

Shen Xing had already knelt down on one knee at this time, "Don't worry about being old, I have worked hard for this day for a long time. I love you and want to spend the rest of my life with you. If you are willing, accept this promised ring."

"Of course I would." Xia Bing put on the ring for herself.

"Shouldn't you be kissing me at this time?" Shen Xing said dissatisfied looking at Xia Bing who was staring at the ring complacently.

Xia Bing dipped a bit of the cake with her index finger and spread it on Shen Xing's lips, licked off the cake with her tongue, and then stuck it into Shen Xing's mouth.

"Not sweet enough." Xia Bing licked his lips after the kiss.

Shen Xing hugged him and continued to kiss, "But you are so sweet."

"After I receive this ring, does it mean that I can't hook up outside?"

Shen Xing untied Xia Bing's shirt, "You can try it."

"Then should I also buy you a 'promise ring'? Otherwise, wouldn't I be at a loss?"

"I've made it clear to my family." Shen Xing continued to ask for his deodorant from Xia Bing.

"Wait! Say it again!" Xia Bing pushed Shen Xing away from him.

"You heard me right, I've already told my family about our relationship."

"Then... what did they say?"

"Don't you always complain that I'm too busy to accompany you recently? Actually, I've been doing their ideological work at home. Before they agreed, I didn't want you to report any hope, so I didn't tell you."

"Then they agreed?" Xia Bing said happily.

"No."

"Ah?" Xia Bing instantly cooled down.

"But at least I won't object now. My dad beat me when I told them. As long as you give them some more time, they will always accept it."

"You were beaten by your father? When did it happen?!"

"Do you still remember that I said seven months ago that I would go to another province for a two-week business trip?"

Xia Bing sobbed while beating Shen Xing: "Why didn't you tell me?!"

"I'm telling you now that you're all like this, if I come back with an injury, you won't cry like a Meng Jiangnu?"

"Are you making fun of me?"

"Don't dare." Shen Xing hugged Xia Bing, "Everything will be fine, as long as we work together, nothing will trouble us."

Xia Bing hugged Shen Xing tightly and nodded fiercely, "But don't hide anything from me in the future, I will bear all the good and bad with you."

"Okay, okay, can I continue what I just did now?"
