In the library, noise is prohibited

The lights in the tavern were warm and yellow, and the singer with the guitar sang folk songs, overwhelming the voices of most of the guests.

Someone among them turned up the volume: "Why is Teacher Xun leaving early again? Who are you going to help?"

Xun Zhou picked up his long coat and smiled apologetically, "It's really something, I'll treat you to a drink next time."

"Okay, don't keep him. Teacher Xun can't drink, we all know that." A few friends grinned and teased him, and began to boo, "He must be afraid of being drunk and shameful, so he wants to run away."

Xun Zhou just smiled and didn't refute. He put on his clothes and said goodbye to them smartly, and took a taxi back to school.

The corridor of the teacher's apartment was quiet, so Xun Zhou didn't enter his room, so he knocked on Duan Chaosheng's door first.

He clearly heard someone walking over in a loose pace, pulling on his slippers.As soon as the door opened, a beige head popped out first—the top of the head was wrapped in a towel, and the eyes exposed under the edge of the cloth were also wet. After seeing himself, they suddenly flashed a little vigilance.

Xun Zhou bowed his head and said, "I went to help you pay the electricity bill, but there is a delay on weekends, you have to wait."

"Thank you." Chao Sheng thanked him from the bottom of his heart this time, and his eyes softened, "Do you want cash or transfer?"

"Cash."

Chao Sheng hesitated for a moment, remembering that the cash seems to have been spent, he hastily changed his words: "I can only transfer money..."

"That's fine." Xun Zhou didn't mind.

Chao Sheng opened the door wider, stood up straight, and took out his cell phone.Only then did Xun Zhou see clearly that he was wearing a one-piece cow pajamas, and even the slippers were matching black and white patterns.

What a child's taste... Xun Zhou pretended not to notice, moved his eyes to the irrelevant floor, and held back his laugh.

"Did you cut off the power when you were taking a shower just now?" Xun Zhou noticed that he kept raising his hand to touch the towel to dry the water droplets on his hair.

"Well, it suddenly turned dark in the middle of washing, unlucky." Chao Sheng sighed annoyedly, "I'll sweep you, how much did you pay?"

"One hundred, is it enough for the end of this semester?"

"Enough." Chao Sheng entered the amount and solemnly thanked Xun Zhou again.

Xun Zhou glanced at the dark room behind Chao Sheng, and said, "I don't know when the call will come, why don't you come to my place to wash first?"

Chao Sheng subconsciously refused without thinking: "It's okay, no need."

"You speak with a nasal voice now, and you will definitely catch a cold if you freeze again." Xun Zhou's voice contained enough concern, and he never lost his sense of propriety because of being too considerate, "At any rate, let's dry your hair first, if you have a headache in winter, It’s hard to think about it.”

Chao Sheng was not afraid of causing trouble to others, the main reason was that he didn't want to owe Xunzhou twice in a short period of time, especially when the other party said "come to help you" on the phone just now and came back to help him pay the bill. It really increases the psychological burden on Chaosheng.

Seeing that he was still standing there hesitating, Xun Zhou smiled brightly, "By the way, I have to thank you for calling and helping me out."

"what?"

Xun Zhou said: "I don't like drinking very much. If you hadn't helped me find an excuse to come out, I'm afraid I'd have to drink with them all night and be late for work tomorrow."

"Really..." After saying this, Chao Sheng felt a little relieved, and began to think about Xun Zhou's proposal before, "Do you need a bath card in the bathroom?"

"I've changed the water heater before, and I don't use it at school, so even if I wash in the middle of the night, the water won't be cut off." Xun Zhou explained, then turned around and opened the door with the key, "Come in, I didn't turn off the air conditioner before I left, it's warm inside."

"Thank you." Chao Sheng tore off the towel from his head and hung it on his forearm.

As soon as he entered Xunzhou's apartment, Chao Sheng was immediately surrounded by the warm air inside. His body that had been icy in the air finally warmed up, and his spirit also relaxed a lot.

Xun Zhou hung his coat on the hanger, poured himself a glass of water, and said to Chao Sheng who was standing at the door of the bathroom, "The black bottle is shampoo, and the red bottle is body wash."

"Oh, good." Chao Sheng remembered, went in and closed the door tightly.

Taking a bath in someone else's house always feels insecure. After taking off his pajamas, Chao Sheng has to hesitate for a long time where to hang it.After unscrewing the shower, we raced against time, fearing that it would take too long to delay the search for a boat and rest.

The bottles and jars on the shelf were all in English. Chao Sheng found the shampoo that Xun Zhou said, and pumped it. When it was applied to the hair, a strong fruity fragrance soon dissipated.The same is true for the shower gel. I don't know how many fragrances are added in it, so Chao Sheng dare not take a big breath.

While he was washing, the ceiling above his head suddenly buzzed, and he looked up and saw a brand new Yuba.

It must be that Xun Zhou pressed the switch outside... Chao Sheng felt that the temperature in the bathroom was a little more comfortable, and a lot of flattered emotions arose from this.

In fact, Xun Zhou seems to be an easy-going and considerate type, but Chao Sheng can't let go in front of people with average acquaintances, so the more he is taken care of, the more likely he will be restrained.

He hurriedly rinsed off the foam on his body, dried it with the towel he brought, put on his pajamas and slippers, and left the bathroom.

"The hair dryer is here." Xun Zhou said without looking up.

He was sitting in the living room with a laptop on his lap, apparently busy with work.Chao Sheng didn't say much to disturb him, he walked over to pick up the hair dryer, saw that the power was on, he just pressed it to use.

The noise filled the whole room, and Chaosheng kept rubbing the hair on his forehead with his fingers, and the hair occasionally touched the eyelashes, making him squint his eyes reflexively.

At this time, he quietly turned his face to Xun Zhou's position, and looked at the man's concentration.She didn't wear glasses, and her brows were slightly furrowed. Even with her head lowered, the lines of her side face were still elegant and distinct.

Chao Sheng can always feel the sense of distance in Xunzhou. It doesn't mean that Xunzhou is alienated from others, but that there is a huge difference in temperament between the two.Chao Sheng knew that the sky he could see was only as big as a circle of wells, so when he met those adults who were able to do a job well in society, he just wanted to stay away from them.

There's nothing wrong with staying at the bottom of the wet and comfortable well with peace of mind, but when he looks up, he can see one, two or three birds flying past. How can he resist imagining what other people's lives are like?

Chao Sheng stared at Xun Zhou in a daze, and the movements of his hands involuntarily slowed down.It wasn't until Xun Zhou raised his head and looked at him for a few seconds that Chao Sheng suddenly looked around to hide his embarrassment.

Xunzhou's eyes are not aggressive, but he can always look directly at others without fear, and Chaosheng is defeated by him in this regard.

"Okay." Chao Sheng touched his cheek when he turned off the hair dryer, it was very hot and blown.

He bent down to put the hair dryer back in place, and when he was about to straighten up, he felt that the corner of his clothes had been ripped off.

Looking back, he found that Xun Zhou was holding the tail behind his cow pajamas in his hand.

Chao Sheng almost exploded his hair, and immediately pulled his tail out of Xun Zhou's hand, and couldn't help but glared at him, "What are you doing?"

Xun Zhou calmly replied, "You haven't dried your hair yet."

"Oh." Chao Sheng twirled his tail behind him and went to pick up the hair dryer again.

When the noise was filling his ears, Chao Sheng seemed to hear Xun Zhou say something, and then he saw the man put the computer down from his lap, stood up and walked over.

The hair dryer in his hand was suddenly taken away by the other party, and Chao Sheng felt the hair on the back of his head being caressed by one hand, the movement was quite gentle, and even the angle of the blower was adjusted to the most appropriate position.

Chao Sheng smelled a burst of fresh berry aroma. He had already used the same shampoo and body wash as Xun Zhou, so he couldn't tell who it was.Regardless of the ambiguous atmosphere or the intimate behavior of the people behind him, the phrase "I'll do it myself" in Chao Sheng's throat seemed to be infected, and he suppressed it back like a ghost.

"Okay." Xun Zhou turned off the hair dryer, and sat back to the original place as if nothing had happened.

Chao Sheng's face was still hot from the hot wind. He wanted to cool down with his palm, but found that his palm was also hot.

"I should call, I'm going back first." Chao Sheng picked up his towel and walked towards the door without looking back.

Xun Zhou's voice came from behind: "Have you got the gift yet?"

"I got it." Chao Sheng unscrewed the door, and finally took another look at Xun Zhou before leaving, "Thank you. When is your birthday?"

"My birthday has passed long ago, and it's summer." When Xun Zhou mentioned this topic, he seemed to be in high spirits, "If you want to return my gift, you can wait until Christmas."

Chao Sheng thought for a while, "That's right, I'll show you next month."

After he left, Xunzhou put the computer aside, picked up his mobile phone to log in to Milan, and took the initiative to send a message to Duan Chaosheng: "I found a place with a signal."

Chao Sheng replied quickly: "I happened to just take a shower."

"Are you still at your parents' house?"

"I've gone back to the school's apartment. Damn, when I came back to take a shower, the power went out, so it's better now."

"Can I still wash when the power is off?"

"I can't, so I went to the neighbor's house to borrow the bathroom."

Neighbor... Xun Zhou rubbed those two words with his fingertips.

This time, he didn't say he was a scumbag.

But Xunzhou will not let Duan Chaosheng go easily, and quickly throws a question: "Neighbor? Could it be that annoying man you mentioned?"

"It's him..." After Chao Sheng saw Y's question, he really felt guilty of being questioned by his lover.

[Coordinate axis XZ]: In fact, he is not that annoying. He even helped me pay the electricity bill today.

Then Xun Zhou murmured silently in his heart: "I even blow-dried your hair."

[Coordinate axis Y]: Don't have a good impression of others so easily, maybe it's just an act.

Although he knows the truth of "should not judge strangers casually", Chao Sheng does not feel that Y is arbitrary, but instead regards his words as caring for himself, so he is satisfied.

Chao Sheng was lying on the sofa while typing, his eyes casually glanced at the table, and he happened to see the box of movie discs.

After hesitating for a while, Chao Sheng deleted the line "I don't like it" in the dialog box, and re-entered the sentence "What do you think is a good gift for the elders for Christmas?".

After the new news was sent, Xun Zhou's eyes were immediately attracted by those two words: "..."

Christmas?

elder?

who?Who are the elders?

Xun Zhou, who is only 26 years old, felt unprecedented surprise.

——It's better to call him a scumbag.
