The author has something to say: Good evening~ Because some things are updated late~

This chapter has been mushrooming for a long time, and I still wrote it with the lid on it, um...

Back off~

Zheng Yuan didn't struggle anymore.The two of them just hugged each other for an unknown amount of time.Until Zheng Yuan realized that his kneeling and sitting right leg became numb and unconscious.

Slowing down, Zheng Yuan called out "Ouyang".I haven't spoken for a long time, and my voice has become hoarse.He cleared his throat and called again.

Ouyang fell asleep without saying a word.Only the arms around Zheng Yuan tightened.

"Okay, go to bed!" Zheng Yuan pushed away Ouyang who was sticking to him like a tape, stood up, picked up Ouyang's back collar, and limped him out of the room.

Ouyang struggled to turn around and wanted to say something more, Zheng Yuan avoided his sight and quickly closed the door.The door was not closed tightly, he pushed twice hard, kicked again, then fell back on the bed and continued to let go.

When I woke up, the morning light spilled into the room through the curtains, and the temperature in the room slowly rose.Zheng Yuan touched the remote control of the air conditioner from the floor. After turning down the temperature, he wanted to wrap the blanket tightly, and tugged hard on the blanket behind him, but found that it couldn't be pulled at all.

Zheng Yuan opened his sleepy eyes and looked back, only to find that the culprit was lying behind him, tightly pressed against a corner of the blanket, sleeping soundly.

I don't know when Ouyang sneaked in, he sighed, touched the remote control of the air conditioner from the floor again, and turned the temperature up.I lay down on the bed again, but couldn't fall asleep.

After learning that Ouyang and Jiang Xiaofan broke up peacefully, his relationship with Ouyang suddenly lost its buffer.Ouyang's confession like a child made him overwhelmed.

But what happens after accepting it?

Originally, he thought he would think of his mother immediately.But a picture suddenly came to mind.That was one thing when he first started out as a society reporter.He no longer remembers why he didn't take a taxi but took the subway to go to the scene.

In the crowded subway, the people who handed out small advertisements for real estate shuttled nimbly among the crowd, stuffing colorful advertisement papers into the hand rings of the carriages, and the hands of passengers who were bored to pass the time.

On the seat in front of Zheng Yuan, sat two middle-aged men, they were the kind of uncles who were so ordinary that they couldn't be recognized when they fell into the crowd.The two of them sat quietly, and one of them took a real estate advertisement, and the two of them looked at it together.Carefully read the photos of the real estate location, supporting facilities and model rooms.When the person holding the advertisement page turned the paper to the back to look at it, another person touched his arm softly, signaling him to pay attention to the real estate price marked on the lower right corner of the advertisement page.Perhaps the two people were surprised and satisfied with the price of about 1 yuan per square meter, and smiled at each other for a moment.

This action is only for a moment, I don't know if the people around me saw it, and how they would look at it, but Zheng Yuan, who was bored, unexpectedly understood it.

When Zheng Yuan was a child, because of his father's discipline, he always felt that his personal space was squeezed to a suffocating level.So much so that now, for this kind of intrusive intimacy, he always looks like a dragon and seems caught off guard.

Therefore, that safe atmosphere will always make him inexplicably warm and uneasy, like sitting on pins and needles.

Thinking of this, he turned to look at Ouyang's sleeping face, the feeling of pins and needles disappeared, but the uneasiness still remained.Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile wryly, thinking too much, and worrying too much, he really is a hard worker.

With such a smile, Ouyang finally woke up.He slowly opened his eyes, narrowed them again, then leaned over and hugged Zheng Yuan by the waist, said "Morning", and was about to fall asleep again.

"Is it disgusting for two big men to stick together?" Zheng Yuan asked, pulling the skin on the back of his hand and not letting go.

After thinking about it, Ouyang said with some sleepiness in his voice: "Think about it...it's a little bit. But you won't be able to run away like this."

Zheng Yuan didn't say anything anymore, got up and walked to the door of the room, and asked, "I'm going to buy breakfast, what do you want?"

Ouyang buried his face in the pillow and shook his head, paused for a few seconds, raised his head and said, "I'll eat whatever you buy."

Zheng Yuan speciously agreed, quickly washed and went out.

There is a street in the north of Longtan Community full of snack shops. When walking in this direction, Zheng Yuan found that it was only a little past six o'clock in the morning.In the community on Sunday, except for a few grandparents who were taking a walk, it seemed extremely deserted.

After buying breakfast and returning home, as soon as he entered the door, he heard the regular sound of the washing machine buzzing in the bathroom.Ouyang has already got up and is cleaning inside and outside the house.

Zheng Yuan took off the pair of old flip-flops on his feet, carefully placed them in the corner next to the shoe rack, and entered the room.

"Aren't you going for a run today?" Zheng Yuan asked casually during the meal.But when Ouyang looked directly at him and wanted to answer, he turned his eyes away.

Ouyang didn't seem to care, explaining that there are still many things to do today.After saying this, he got up as if remembering something and went back to the room. When he came out, he was holding something in his hand, please put it on the dining table.

On the table is a wooden box, which looks to be 10*10*10cm in size. On the red wooden background, there are light or light black cross patterns that are only the size of sesame seeds, making the whole rustic red wooden box look It makes more sense.Zheng Yuan remembered that Ouyang said that this color is called "the color of coming", which symbolizes the dawn.At dawn, the sky is getting more and more red, but the blackness has not completely receded.

Under Ouyang's gesture, he carefully picked up the wooden box, shook it by his ear, and there was a crisp sound of metal colliding inside.

"Open it and have a look." Ouyang's expression was the same as usual, and the corners of his mouth curled up a little bit to whet his appetite.Zheng Yuan shook the box again, not wanting to see his face, and opened the box on his own.

Inside the box were a bunch of old and new steel coins of different specifications.There are one cent, one dime, and one yuan.Zheng Yuan shook the wooden box, a bunch of steel coins bounced and jingled.

"A piggy bank?" Zheng Yuan picked out a penny and carefully observed the front and back, "It's hard to find this year."

Ouyang took the wooden box from him, poured all the coins on the table, and arranged them in a row in a certain order.

"Look again." After setting it up, he reminded Zheng Yuan as if offering a treasure.

It was only then that Zheng Yuan discovered that these coins were lined up according to the year. From the year he was born to this year, there were 27 coins of three denominations.

He looked up at Ouyang, seeing a serious smile in his eyes, he hurriedly snatched the box from Ouyang's hand, wiped it across the table, and put the coins into the wooden box.

"Put it away." After closing the lid, he weighed the box again, and after listening to the crisp metal sound, he stuffed the box to Ouyang.

"I planned to give it to you when you came back." Ouyang pushed the box back to Zheng Yuan, and explained lightly, "A classmate of mine asked me to help design a set of print notebooks and sell them on Taobao. I helped her go to the forest two days ago This is a thank you gift for filming in the park.”

The back of Ouyang's neck was red from the sun, and when he said this, he unconsciously stretched out his hand to gently rub the still hot skin.Zheng Yuan put the box on the table, kept turning the box in his hand, looked up to see Ouyang's move, lowered his head and was about to speak, he felt Ouyang stretch out his foot under the table to hook his ankle, and shake it gently twice .

Before Zheng Yuan could retract his legs, Ouyang continued: "Are you going to run some activities this afternoon? I just saw the reminder message from the PR company."

After that, Ouyang quickly added another sentence: "I just glanced at it when I saw it pop up on the screen of your mobile phone."

Although he knew that Ouyang was telling the truth, Zheng Yuan was stunned for a moment, and replied: "One o'clock in the afternoon, on the side of the East Fifth Ring Road."

"Shall I go with you?" Ouyang said absent-mindedly, taking a sip of soy milk.

Zheng Yuan looked at Ouyang's clear expression and said, "It's too hot, I just need to come back earlier."

Ouyang unexpectedly stopped insisting.Before eleven o'clock, under the scorching sun, Zheng Yuan ran outside the East Fifth Ring Road and visited the model villa with a group of colleagues.

In just one month, the price of real estate near the Fifth Ring Road of Yancheng has exceeded 3 per square meter.Zheng Yuan habitually wonders whether Ouyang should buy a house before the price increases.After thinking about it, Ouyang no longer needs to buy a house, and he suddenly felt a little empty.

What on earth is he here for?

It was because he wanted to fulfill Ouyang's wish to have a family.But now, Ouyang said he wanted to be with him.

Then accept it frankly, there is nothing to hesitate.This is Ouyang.

This is Ouyang.His thoughts were fixed on this sentence, and suddenly he got stuck.

He never believed the story of the princess and the prince living happily ever after.

He realized he was an asshole, one of those French movie bastards who absent-mindedly say "I don't love you, but it's okay to marry you."

Letting his thoughts wander like this, he followed the team and was taken back to the rest area of ​​the sales hall by the real estate consultant, had some tea breaks, and waited for the project leader to communicate with them about the project and the market situation.

Not in the mood to sit and wait, Zheng Yuan was watching the real estate consultant explaining the project to customers beside the sand table in the sales office.

Inadvertently, I saw a very short short hair coming down from the office on the second floor of the project.The short-haired owner was surprised when he saw Zheng Yuan, and then smiled politely.

"What a coincidence." Zheng Yuan also smiled politely.Unexpectedly, meeting Jiang Xiaofan for two consecutive days, Zheng Yuan felt that he should find a fortune teller to change his fate.

Jiang Xiaofan nodded, walked two steps towards the door of the sales office, then took three steps back, stood beside Zheng Yuan beside the sand table, stared at the green plant model on the sand table, and said in a low voice: "Come to participate in the event?"

"Is Ouyang okay?" Before Zheng Yuan could speak, Jiang Xiaofan spoke first.

Zheng Yuan hurriedly said "Thanks to you".

Jiang Xiaofan nodded thoughtfully, and said, "That's good. Thank you very much."

Zheng Yuan nodded deeply, didn't look at Jiang Xiaofan again, turned around and walked towards the rest area.

"Zheng Yuan." Jiang Xiaofan raised his voice behind him.

Seeing Zheng Yuan turning around, she hesitated and said: "Before Ouyang said that he planned to study in England. If there is anything that needs help, I will definitely help... Please tell him."

After Jiang Xiaofan finished speaking, he unconsciously straightened the long hair next to his ear.But now only the short hair above the pinna was left. After realizing it, she tidied it up with her fingers a few times, put down her hand, and folded it behind her back.

Although the two agreed on who proposed the breakup, it was the first time Zheng Yuan heard that Ouyang planned to study in England.Maybe because he felt that he owed Ouyang, Jiang Xiaofan's words were full of pleading, it didn't look like he was joking.

Zheng Yuan felt his mouth was dry, he swallowed and spit, and said nonchalantly: "There is me."

Jiang Xiaofan nodded, knowing that what he said now was out of bounds.She held the document bag in one hand, waved Zheng Yuan with the other, and walked out of the sales office.

A general dialogue between the media and the project has begun.Zheng Yuan sneaked into the interview room and sat down on the sofa in the last row.

The so-called dialogue is nothing more than words of mutual flattery.Recently, news of illegal "covering" of this real estate has been reported, but "taking someone's hand short", the media people here will not pick up which pot is not opened.

At the end of the event, Zheng Yuan was about to leave with the project information bag in hand, when he saw that the reporter from the morning newspaper who had been running the breaking news together was also at the scene, and after having a warm chat with the project manager, he called Zheng Yuan to take a taxi back together.

Zheng Yuan looked at his face, it was indeed more energetic and nourished than when he ran suddenly.Last month, I saw him posting about his children in Moments for a hundred days.

Seeing him like a fish in water in this line of work, Zheng Yuan suddenly felt a little tired.Finding an excuse to decline to go with him, Zheng Yuan walked alone to the sales office, walked to a distance of 800 meters from the door of the sales office, and threw the information bag into the trash can by the roadside.

"Are you agreed to be together?" Zheng Yuan was a little dizzy from the scorching sun.Thinking of Jiang Xiaofan's announcement just now, confusion and anger slowly crept into his thoughts.After much deliberation, only helplessness remained in the end.No matter whether it is studying in graduate school or going abroad, Ouyang has never consulted with him.What is the relationship between him and Ouyang now, can he question him confidently?

After leaving the subway station near his home, Zheng Yuan lingered on the street for a long time.Although it was nearly five o'clock in the afternoon, the sun still scorched the pedestrians, and there was no difference.

He ate the Liangpi Roujiamo set meal in a small shop on the street, and when he walked to the small supermarket at the entrance of the community, he carried a box of Bingfeng upstairs.Before leaving, the owner of the supermarket asked him not to forget to return the box and the bottle while looking for money, "I haven't returned the soda bottle from last year, and a cub was hatched in your house?"

Zheng Yuan didn't want to be poor with him, so he ordered another green 520.

The boss groped furtively in the room behind the counter for a long time, poked his head out and said mysteriously, "I bought it for your little friend? 520 is gone, do you want a white Marlboro? There are girls smoking this now too."

Zheng Yuan laughed awkwardly, thinking that it was all mint flavored, he nodded in agreement.The boss took out a black plastic bag from the room, exposed the cigarette box for Zheng Yuan to check, and put it on the soda box.

Sweating profusely, he carried the soda box back home and placed the orange plastic box next to the shoe rack. He looked up and saw that Ouyang was sitting at the dining table in the living room, drawing something on an A4.Seeing Zheng Yuan coming in, he hurriedly got up and took the soda box from Zheng Yuan's hand, and put the soda bottle into the refrigerator in the kitchen.Then he took out two opened bottles of Arctic Ocean from the kitchen and put them on the table for Zheng Yuan to drink.

The orange-flavored cool drink is reassuring.Zheng Yuan was so hot that he didn't want to talk, he drank soda and watched Ouyang continue to paint and draw.After finishing a bottle of Arctic Ocean, he drank up Ouyang's bottle as well.

"Look!" Ouyang raised the A4 paper in his hand, on which was a hand-painted QR code.

What, Zheng Yuan muttered, reached for his phone, opened WeChat and scanned it, and the camera aimed at the QR code.

After the scan is successful, the page automatically jumps to the prompt page. Under the text "The following content has been scanned", a box composed of thin light gray lines appears, with three numbers written inside it.

Zheng Yuan recited these three numbers silently in his heart, looked up at Ouyang's expectant expression, and tied his tongue.

Now he understood that Ouyang expected him to say those three words, and those three words became extremely heavy on the tip of his tongue.

"Ouyang, you know I can't say it now." After a long stalemate, he still couldn't help but tell the truth.

Ouyang lowered his head, folded the piece of paper, and said in a low voice: "I know, you just dare not say it."

Zheng Yuan nodded and said: "Yes, I dare not. This is the only thought I have left now, and I don't want to mess it up. You dare, you can do whatever you want, go what you want The place!"

Ouyang frowned and looked at Zheng Yuan, stared at him with unusually bright eyes for a long time, and finally said: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't force you."

After that, he left the room.
