Christmas

After resting at home for about an hour, Xia Yao was about to get up and go to the coffee shop.But suddenly I received a call from Xu Wen, saying that a waiter has been recruited, so Xia Yao can rest at home instead of going to the coffee shop.You just need to wait until you have time to come over to pick up things, and settle your salary by the way.

Xia Yao hung up the phone, lay back on the bed and stared at the ceiling in a daze, thinking that he had indeed been in the coffee shop for a whole week, the time passed so fast.

"what happened?"

Shi Xie rubbed his head and sat up leaning against the head of the bed, half-closed his eyes and asked.

"My cousin said that she has already recruited employees, so I don't need to go there in the future."

Xia Yao raised his body and leaned against Shi Xie, and suddenly he didn't have to work. Although his heart was relaxed, it was also accompanied by a little emptiness.

False feeling.

Shi Xie responded softly, and stretched out his hand to stroke Xia Yao's hair, and the two quietly enjoyed a moment of warmth.

"Now you can take Xiao Shen to the playground. He has told me many times recently."

After changing his clothes, Xia Yao stood in front of the mirror and pinched his own face, always feeling that he seemed a little fat recently.

"Then take him, what are you doing?"

Shi Xie stood behind Xia Yao, watching his movements and asked.

"Have I gained weight recently? I haven't gone to the gym for a long time."

Xia Yao touched his stomach again as he spoke, it was indeed not as flat and firm as before, and even a little soft.

A slight smile appeared on Shi Xie's face, and he stretched out his hand to touch Xia Yao's stomach, which was soft but not obvious.Shi Xie still liked the touch, and couldn't help touching it for a while longer.

After slapping Shi Xie's hand off, Xia Yao sat back on the bed, and suddenly heard the message notification on the phone.

Xia Yao took it out and saw that it was sent by Wei Kong.

The message said that I wanted to invite him to my house as a guest, and there was something else I wanted to talk to him about.

Putting away the phone, Xia Yao raised his head and asked Shi Xie who was changing clothes.

"Are you busy this afternoon?"

"There's a new shipment, I'm going to check it out. What's the matter?"

"Wei Kong told me to go to his house as a guest. I also asked if you want to come together. Since you have something to do, you should do your business first." Shi Xie nodded. He really couldn't leave today.Suddenly remembering the way Wei Kong looked at him today, he frowned and felt a little unhappy, but he didn't intend to tell Xia Yao, firstly, because he was afraid of his wild thinking, and secondly, it was unnecessary.

"Then you come back early."

"I see. When you come back, we will go home together and cook your favorite dishes at night."

''■?,〇"

Nodding his head, Shi Xie kissed Xia Yao's forehead, packed his clothes and left the room with Xia Yao.The house was quiet, Xia Yao lay on Xu Zi's half-open door and looked in, only to see Xiao Shen and Xu Zi sleeping soundly.After gently closing the door, Xia Yao and Shi Xie left the house together.

Watching Shi Xie's car leave slowly, Xia Yao came to the building next to him and found his floor and house number according to the address in the text message Wei Kong sent him just now on his mobile phone.

Seventh floor, 2307.

Raising his hand to press the doorbell, the door was opened from the inside shortly after the doorbell rang. Wei Kong was looking at him with a smile and shyly invited him in.

As soon as he walked in, Xia Yao first looked at the shoe cabinet, but found that there were no slippers on it, so he had to stand at the door a little

Embarrassed.

"Need a change of shoes?"

"No need, come in quickly."

Wei Kong suddenly invited Xia Yao in in a panic, his face flushed red, as if he had no experience in entertaining guests.

Xia Yao nodded, followed him directly to the living room and sat on the sofa without saying anything.Wei Kong went to the kitchen to pour water first, Xia Yao had the opportunity to look around the room.The room is big, there are not too many things, and it is very clean, even a little too clean.

The white tile floor was polished so brightly that even the cracks seemed to have been specially polished.Moreover, there are very few furnishings in the room, and there are no extra things, so it looks a bit empty, which is very different from the artist's room in Xia Yao's imagination

There was still a faint smell of disinfectant in the room. Xia Yao saw a large bucket of disinfectant under the coffee table. In Xia Yao's knowledge, it seemed that only people with cleanliness and doctors would prepare it at home. This medical disinfectant.

At this time Wei Kong came out with a cup of coffee, Xia Yao stopped looking around, after all, it was a bit impolite.

After taking the coffee from Wei Kong, Xia Yao took a sip after thanking him. It was authentic Lanshan, and he was a little surprised at Wei Kong's craftsmanship.After staying in the coffee shop for a week, although Xia Yao could only taste a few types of coffee, he was able to tell the difference between the good and the bad. Wei Kong's technique was comparable to Sister Lu's.

"Your coffee is really good, why go to the coffee shop to drink it?"

Putting down the cup Xia Yao asked curiously, Wei Kong blushed and spoke modestly.

"No, I'm not skilled enough. And I like the atmosphere in the coffee shop, not loud and lonely."

Hearing Wei Kong's answer, Xia Yao nodded understandingly. Many people who like to come to the coffee shop think this way.After taking a few more sips of coffee, Xia Yao remembered what Wei Kong had told him in the message, put down his cup and asked.

"You asked me to come with something to say?"

Hearing Xia Yao's question, Wei Kong froze for a moment, then smiled shyly.

"I'm just a little bored by myself, and I thought you should like sculpture very much during the exhibition, so I sorted out some materials for you."

Speaking of which, Wei Kong took out a stack of materials printed on A4 paper from under the coffee table and handed them to Xia Yao. Xia Yao hurriedly reached out to take them, and carefully flipped through a few pages.There are some very practical skills on the materials, and there are some simple and clear notes beside them, which shows that Wei Kong is serious about making these materials.

Xia Yao quickly thanked him, and felt a little sorry. He was just bored and asked some things about woodcarving. Unexpectedly, Wei Kong still remembered it and sorted out the materials for him.

"Thank you so much."

"It's okay, we're friends."

As he said that, Wei Kong lowered his head and blushed a little.

Xia Yao looked through the documents in his hand with great interest, but Wei Kong suddenly called him.

"Xia Yao, let me show you my collection."

"Okay."

Nodding Xia Yao put down the documents and stood up. Wei Kong led him to the door of one of the rooms, took out the key and opened the door.

The room was dark because there were no curtains.Wei Kong pressed the switch on the wall, and the room suddenly lit up.

Only then did Xia Yao realize that the room turned out to be a simple exhibition hall.

The room is very spacious, with many glass display cabinets.Xia Yao stepped forward to look at the things inside, and saw that what was placed inside were not Wei Kong's wood carvings, but delicate dolls.

These dolls have their eyes closed, and I don't know what material they are made of. They look very realistic and look very textured.They were wearing very gorgeous dresses, and they were quietly placed in the window, like quiet sleeping beauties.

There are some carving tools in the center of the room, and a half-finished wooden head on the table. It seems that the dolls here should all be made by Wei Kong.

"This doll is just like the real thing, so beautiful."

Xia Yao looked at the dolls in front of a cabinet and praised sincerely.What I saw in this window was a doll in a standing position, a life-sized doll about 1.6 meters in height.She closed her eyes, her face was peaceful, she was wearing a white wedding dress, just like a quiet bride, waiting devoutly for the arrival of her husband.

"This is my favorite piece of work."

Wei Kong stood beside Xia Yao and looked at the doll in the window, his eyes slowly traced her outline, his face full of obsession.

"Are these all made of wood?"

"Well, but their skin is made of a special material."

"What material?"

"Do you want to know?"

Wei Kong suddenly turned his head to look at Xia Yao, his eyes were so deep that Xia Yao couldn't understand, just like in the coffee shop that day.Xia Yao was taken aback for a moment, and felt that his question was a bit abrupt.

"Is this confidential? Sorry, I'm just asking casually, you don't have to..."

Xia Yao was talking, but was interrupted by Wei Kong.

"It's okay, you can talk. After all...you don't have much time."

What Wei Kong said was really strange. Before Xia Yao had time to think about what it meant, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart, spreading all over his limbs. Xia Yao couldn't breathe in the pain, so he bent down and covered it. The heart opened its mouth wide and tried hard to absorb the thin air.

"Is it a seizure?"

Looking down at Xia Yao from a high position, Wei Kong's face was full of grin and madness, as if he had suddenly changed into a different person.Xia Yao frowned, probably guessing something.

"What did you put in that cup of coffee!"

The pain in his heart felt like it could tear Xia Yao apart. He braced his body and slowly slid against the window, sat on the ground and stared at Wei Kong fiercely.

"It's just a potion, you won't die now. I thought Mr. Shi and that kid would come with you, and they specially prepared

There are three servings, and now I can only use them all for you.how do you feel?These medicines are very precious. "

"why……"

Gritting his teeth, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.The heart seemed to be about to burst, the knuckles covering the heart had turned white due to too much force, and Xia Yao's painful lips began to turn white.

Wei Kong smiled grimly and knelt down to look at Xia Yao's face. He stretched out his hand as if he wanted to touch Xia Yao, but Xia Yao turned his head and avoided it.Wei Kong smiled playfully, a little surprised at Xia Yao's endurance, but he was not worried.

"Why, it's probably because I envy you so much, I'm so envious that I'm jealous, I'm so jealous that I go crazy."

Wei Kong stood up, stared at the dolls in the window and whispered, his face that was always shy, but now there was only fanatical obsession, like a devil caught in a swamp.

Xia Yao's consciousness began to become less and less clear, his eyes were all white, and he couldn't see anything.There were bursts of buzzing sounds in my ears, my body began to feel weak, and the pain in my heart seemed to no longer be felt, and Xia Yao's breathing began to gradually become lighter.The darkness gradually invaded his brain like a slippery salamander.

But in the moment of darkness, Xia Yao seemed to see that the dolls in the room seemed to have opened their eyes, and a line of blood and tears flowed from their eye sockets.
