Zhong Weiqi was bored.

Usually he was the one who was missed, but this time he was the one who counted the days.

Yan Xiu didn't contact him——

first day.

Day three.

ninth day.

Zhong Weiqi couldn't sit still anymore, he beat around the bush and asked the fat man, "What's going on in your class recently?"

The fat man said, "No."

He asked again: "Is your head teacher busy?"

The fat man said, "I don't know, it looks the same as usual."

This stung Zhong Weiqi as usual.

No. On the 20th day, Zhong Weiqi finally couldn't bear to call Yan Xiu.

"Are you free tomorrow night? A friend of mine has opened a new store, let's go and sit down together?" Zhong Weiqi chose the right place between "sincerity" and "frivolity" for the invitation.

Yan Xiu was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone, and replied: "Not tomorrow night, I have an appointment..."

Zhong Weiqi groaned, and his voice sank all of a sudden.He seemed to understand how some people felt when he teased them.This may be the so-called reincarnation.

"I can't do it tomorrow night," Yan Xiu continued, "Is it okay tonight?"

Zhong Weiqi laughed silently, and said happily, "I'll wait for you."

They only sat for half an hour at a friend's new store, and then found a place to get straight to the point.Yan Xiu took him to an old residential area in a remote location, without an elevator, and it was very dilapidated.

"This is your home?" Zhong Weiqi was very suspicious as he walked in the narrow corridor.

Yan Xiu said, "No, this is the place I rented."

He opened the door with the key, and Zhong Weiqi saw the big bed in the room at a glance-the house was old and there was no decent furniture, only one bed was new and clean.

"Really..." Zhong Weiqi laughed.The function of the house is clear at a glance.

He walked around the old house with one bedroom and one living room, and Yan Xiu had already turned on the water heater.

They took a shower together.Yan Xiu was still silent, but seeing Zhong Weiqi's surgery scars, his movements became gentle.They hugged and kissed in the cramped bathroom.The hot water fluctuated, Zhong Weiqi looked at Yan Xiu in the water mist, his eyes were lowered, his lips were tightly pressed, and his hands were stroking downwards.

They had a good time in the humble bathroom and rolled in the new bed.

Zhong Weiqi's waist was about to break in the middle of the night, and he finally couldn't help complaining: "Mr. Yan, I'm not an eighteen or twenty-year-old boy anymore, take it easy."

Yan Xiu was helpless: "When you say this, can you take the leg off my waist first?"

Zhong Weiqi still maintained the original position: "It's comfortable to sleep like this."

Yan Xiu has quit smoking for many years, and at this time, his addiction to smoking is actually a little bit up.He stroked Zhong Weiqi's face lightly, and asked in a low voice, "Do you still have contact with that sick college student?"

Zhong Weiqi laughed: "I'm just teasing the kids."

Yan Xiu's expression softened a bit.

A kind of expectation that should not be raised slowly in Zhong Weiqi's heart, he said: "I haven't contacted you for so many days, are you jealous?"

Yan Xiu looked into his eyes and said, "I don't want my bed partner to mess around outside."

Zhong Weiqi didn't react for a moment, he smiled and asked, "What do you mean?"

Yan Xiu pressed his hand and said, "We solve each other's needs together, at least we must be responsible for each other's health. If you have other sexual partners outside, I can't accept it, and I'm not interested."

Zhong Weiqi was a little dazed, he didn't expect Yan Xiu to confess to him at this moment, and he said nonsense "I love you" while fucking him, Yan Xiu is not that kind of person.But Yan Xiu clearly said "to solve each other's needs", such a Yan Xiu... only intends to treat him as a friend with benefits.

What more could he ask for?He should laugh.He met so many people in the past, if he offered to only talk about the body, not the relationship.He will appreciate the other party and feel that the other party is smart, rational and not difficult to deal with.

But the truth doesn't work here for Yan Xiu.Zhong Weiqi couldn't smile, he was just trying to maintain the angle of the corners of his mouth, he thought he must be smiling very ugly at the moment.

"I see." He said dryly.His legs left Yan Xiu's body.

Seeing him like this, Yan Xiu wanted to have a cigarette even more.

"Why, it was you who went to 'tease' other little boys first. It seems that I have become a villain."

Zhong Weiqi is not someone who likes to compete with himself.If you have wine today and are drunk today, you shouldn't think too much.

He leaned forward and kissed Yan Xiu again: "You are not a villain. It's because I don't know what to do."

Yan Xiu looked at him with inquiring eyes, and he had no choice but to promise: "I will not provoke people outside in the future, and I will only have you as a bed partner. If you are worried, I will go to the hospital for regular physical examinations, and you can see my Medical report."

Yan Xiu said, "That's good."

Zhong Weiqi thought about it and became happy again: "When did you prepare this place? I don't know at all."

Yan Xiu said: "It's the National Day holiday. I didn't choose carefully. The location and the price are right."

Zhong Weiqi is not stupid, the location is suitable because it is remote and not easy to be bumped into.The right price means cheap. After all, it’s just for work, not real cohabitation. There is no need to rent a very good place.

But that's enough.enough.

On the bright side, at least this place was prepared for him.

"What will you do if I don't contact you anymore?" If it was another person, you would probably ask this.But Zhong Weiqi would not ask.

Zhong Weiqi breathed a sigh of relief.He fell asleep beside Yan Xiu.

The days that followed seemed to settle into a steady pattern.They seldom chat on mobile phones. Most of the conversations are "Are you free today?" "See you in the rental house."

We meet two to three times a week and must meet on weekends.

Two months passed in a blink of an eye, and Christmas Day happened to be Saturday.

On Christmas Eve, Zhong Weiqi specially modified it. He recently raised some meat and came back. He felt that his face was much better than before, and he looked beautiful in the mirror for a long time.

The fat man came back from school while watching TV and playing with his mobile phone, watching Zhong Weiqi coming in and out, packing a suitcase, and finally asked curiously: "Are you going on a trip?"

Zhong Weiqi planned to stay in the rental house for two nights this time.He said vaguely, "That's right."

Occasionally, he and Yan Xiu would spend the night in the rental house, but it wasn't the kind of sweet and warm couple's sleepover, but because it was too late, it was more convenient to stay and sleep.

Living in a dilapidated rental house for two nights is definitely not a romantic way to spend the holidays, Zhong Weiqi just felt that he urgently needed it.

Fatty became excited when he heard it: "How many days are you going out to play?"

Zhong Weiqi saw through him at a glance: "When I'm not here, you can eat and play whatever you want. But if you dare to bring your classmates home to play, I'll take your skin off. You don't want to have a penny of pocket money next month."

The fat man suddenly lost his temper.He lamented a few words, "Send someone under the fence, send him under the fence!" He lay on the sofa again and continued to play games.

When we arrived at the rental house, Yan Xiu helped carry the huge suitcase upstairs. The corridor was narrow, and he climbed up to the fourth floor. Yan Xiu couldn't help but say, "Those who didn't know thought you were going to travel abroad."

Zhong Weiqi thought for a moment, isn't it across mountains and seas from his head to Yan Xiu's heart?

He didn't want to say such sour words out of his mouth.

"To be honest, someday we can really go out and have fun," he said with a smile, "You have a long vacation, and I... have to rest for a few years."

Yan Xiu only glanced at him: "Let's talk about it later."

The old air conditioner in the old house can't keep the temperature up at the coldest time of night.Zhong Weiqi felt cold in the middle of the night, and he clung to the healthy and warm body beside him.When Yan Xiu was sleepy, he felt someone dawdling in front of him, and he grabbed him into his arms.

"You crazy..." Yan Xiu muttered, "Go to sleep..."

Zhong Weiqi hugged his arm, adjusted his posture, and finally enjoyed the most reliable heat source.

When Zhong Weiqi woke up the next morning, Yan Xiu had already bought breakfast, a bunch of buns, fried dough sticks and porridge.

Wrapped in a quilt, Zhong Weiqi suddenly laughed when he watched Yan Xiu set up breakfast.

Yan Xiu looked at him: "Do you want me to feed you on the bed?"

Zhong Weiqi said: "I'm thinking of my first boyfriend in college."

Yan Xiu was not interested in these gossips, but Zhong Weiqi had already started talking on his own.

"Now that I think about it, that guy is really nice. He will take care of me, he's not slick at all, and he looks...a bit like you. But I think he's boring, and I haven't contacted him since I graduated from college."

Yan Xiu ate breakfast slowly while listening to Zhong Weiqi's noise.He has also seen some forums on the Internet, and there are too many people bragging about their love affairs.But he believed that what Zhong Weiqi said was true, not bragging.

Because he can imagine Zhong Weiqi's appearance before he got a serious illness, beautiful, arrogant, smart and a little bit of indifferent cunning, it's a shame to see it.Even if you are sick, it is still almost the same, and there is not much restraint.

But no matter what is true or what is false, it will not make him feel troubled.

Zhong Weiqi couldn't get the support of the only audience, so he stopped talking.He took a box from the suitcase, walked over and handed it to Yan Xiu.

"Merry Christmas."

Yan Xiu didn't open it, and returned it to him directly: "I didn't prepare a gift."

Zhong Weiqi said: "Don't you see what it is first?" He smiled and shook the box, as if he was tempting to commit a crime.

Yan Xiu still didn't move, Zhong Weiqi almost gritted his teeth, and he tore open the package by himself.Inside is a watch, which Zhong Weiqi picked out two weeks earlier, and it is the same model as the one he often wears.

On a bright winter morning, this watch is too beautiful to be on display in this humble room.

Yan Xiu saw it and said, "I have no reason to accept such an expensive gift."

Zhong Weiqi was both disappointed and seemed to be expected.

He used to play with the little model, and the little model yelled that she fell in love with him once in bed and asked him to buy something.Zhong Weiqi still remembered pinching the model's little face and saying, "Honey, you said it the other way around, you fell in love with me, you should buy me something."

Of course, Zhong Weiqi will still buy some gifts when he meets someone who is really sweet, but this is the first time for such an expensive watch.

Yan Xiu was indifferent.

Even if it's just two people facing each other, Zhong Weiqi still has to find a way for himself to step down.

"It's okay not to accept this gift, but I have one condition." Zhong Weiqi looked at Yan Xiu affectionately, "You can tell me something nice, love words, so that I can feel at ease."

Yan Xiu put down the fritters in his hand, looked at Zhong Weiqi, and said, "The person you love at first is not the person you love in the end. Love is not the ultimate goal but a process. Through this process, one person wants to understand another people."*

After he finished speaking, he picked up the fritters again and chewed quietly.

Zhong Weiqi stopped breathing for a second, and then he came back to his senses: "Wait, this sounds familiar, is it a famous quote from a novel?"

Yan Xiu said: "Yes. Look up which novels yourself."

Zhong Weiqi was satisfied, he put away his watch with a smile, and had breakfast with Yan Xiu.

In the afternoon, they drove to the suburbs for a stroll, and went to the city's famous artificial lake to see winter migratory birds.After I came back, I spent another night in the rental house.

When Yan Xiu entered, Zhong Weiqi was still thinking about the sentence he had recited.

"...By using this process, one person wants to understand another person."

Zhong Weiqi did not expect that after so many years, he would still want to know another person.
