The New Year's Eve dinner, also known as the reunion dinner, is supposed to be a family reunion gathering together, sitting around the table to celebrate the reunion happily.

Lin Jiang sat with the Li family, watching them happily chatting and eating delicious food, he couldn't help but smile on his face, but there was always a kind of incompatible sadness in his heart.

After all, they are the family, and they are just a guest.

【…】

"Sui, why don't you eat? You don't look very well." Song Jinfeng put his hand on Lin Jiangsui's forehead worriedly: "Are you sick?"

Lin Jiangsui warmed his heart: "It's okay, I just ate too much and my stomach is bloated, just take a rest." That's fine, I can't ask for more...

【…】

A meal started at six o'clock, and the table was not finished until eight o'clock. Li Pengwei even moved the TV to the lobby, and everyone watched the Spring Festival Gala while eating. Although the program is not as good as every year, it is already a must during the Chinese New Year. One less activity, what everyone wants is the atmosphere.

When he was sure that there was no room for anything in his stomach, Lin Jiangsui put down his chopsticks and said goodbye to Li Pengwei's family: "I'm full, take your time."

"Go back now? Don't sit for a while? Stay and watch the new year together?"

"No, it's rare for your family to get together. How can I stay as a light bulb, and I'm exhausted after a long day of work. I'll go back to wash and sleep." Lin Jiangsui stretched exaggeratedly.

Li Pengwei and Song Jinfeng looked at each other, clearly seeing the helplessness in each other's eyes: "Then you go back to sleep, remember to come and eat glutinous rice balls tomorrow morning."

"Ah."

Looking at the back of Lin Jiangsui who disappeared at the door, the two elders sighed at the same time: "Cough, I don't know if Suiwazi forgot to worship God in his previous life, and in this life he has such parents."

"Mom and Dad, it's okay. Isn't my cousin all right?" Li Zheyu naturally knew that Lin Jiang followed the family affairs, so he comforted him.

Leaving aside the mention of the Li family in advance, Lin Jiang went back to the house, just like he said, he ran into the sealed place to take a bath, but after taking a bath, he did not go back to the room on the second floor to sleep, but left the room on the second floor. I carried the quilt to the room on the first floor, sat on the bed with the quilt covered, drinking tea while watching the Spring Festival Gala, and held a hot water bottle in my hand.

The tea is a bitter tea that country people often drink. It tastes very bitter, but it is very refreshing. After drinking it, I feel pretty good.

[Since you plan to watch the year, why don't you go with them? 】

[For those who celebrate Chinese New Year, don't disturb the family reunion. 】Lin Jiang took a sip of tea. He was really tired today. He was a little drowsy and needed to refresh himself.

[Then you don't need anyone to accompany you? 】

Lin Jiang said with a smile: [Isn't there still you? 】I pulled the quilt wrapped around me, it was really cold on the night of New Year's Eve, even the air was almost freezing.

[...Is it enough to have me? 】

Yes, is it enough to have him?

【Hey, will you watch the New Year with me?Whenever I call you, you will answer, right? 】【Well, but I'm not your family member, is it okay? 】They have no blood or relatives, they are independent individuals who have no connection at all.

Lin Jiang changed his posture: [Yes. ] Because we are all alone.

In the dim room, there is only the light of the TV, and the programs inside are performed one after another, such as crosstalk, sketches, singing, and dancing. Their voices are accompanied by applause, cheers, and applause from the specially turned down speakers. , when it floated to Lin Jiangsui's ears, it was almost indistinct.

The dew was deeper outside the window, and the bitter and astringent strong tea had no effect at all. Lin Jiangsui, who was sitting against the corner, could not open his eyes gradually. The faint sound of the TV in his ears seemed to become a lullaby, hypnotizing him, and finally closed his eyes. eyeballed.

Someone seemed to be sighing beside the ear, and the temperature around the body also rose, very warm, very warm, just like being in the arms of a mother...

The sky-shattering sound of firecrackers suddenly sounded in the darkness, like a signal, sounding the cheers of the night.The sound of firecrackers sounded one after another, as if it would never stop, high and low, far and near, telling the arrival of the new year, and waking up the sleeping people.

Lin Jiang woke up from his dream, hearing the deafening sound of firecrackers, and in front of him was a TV broadcasting thousands of people cheering to welcome the New Year. He rubbed his astringent eyes, and muttered to himself, "It's twelve o'clock." ?”

"Well, it's twelve o'clock, Happy New Year." An unfamiliar voice came from behind, and the voice rang right next to my ears, because it was not covered by the sound of firecrackers because of the proximity.

But, in the middle of the night, who else is at home besides him?Especially when he was still on the bed.

Turning his head stiffly to look behind him, the person behind him looked sideways at him cooperatively: "Aren't you awake yet? It's time, it's time to go out and set off firecrackers."

Familiar and unfamiliar faces, more handsome than anyone else, more perfect than anyone else, the eyes transformed from stars looked at him intently, and there was only myself in it.

His voice was a little rough and bitter, and he called out the person's name softly, very softly, afraid that the person in front of him was just a phantom, and disappeared immediately after he spoke: "...Underworld? "

"Huh?" The perfect thin lips evoked a gentle arc, so beautiful that people couldn't move their eyes away.

Some people say that people are the most vulnerable when they are half asleep and half awake. Lin Jiangsui has confirmed this now. His first reaction when he saw Emperor Hades was to turn around and wrap his hands around his neck. Sleeping in his arms is now just turning passive into active.

Lin Jiangsui used almost all his strength to hug Emperor Underworld, his chin rested on his shoulder, his eyes were blurred and he couldn't see clearly.

Emperor Hades was taken aback by his sudden movement, before he could react, he felt some cold liquid dripping on his shoulders, soaking a large piece of fabric.

Underworld Emperor was stunned for a long time, before he came back to his senses, he put his arms around Lin Jiangsui, patted him on the back lightly, acquiescing to his silent crying.

After crying for a while, Lin Jiang stopped his tears. He grabbed the quilt beside him and wiped it indiscriminately. He let go of Emperor Hades with an embarrassed face: "Didn't you say you can't come out? Why now?"

"It's just a separate body, and it won't last long." Seeing that his mood has stabilized, Underworld Emperor breathed a sigh of relief, he doesn't know how to coax people.

Lin Jiangsui subconsciously grabbed the corner of the black robe on Emperor Underworld, worried that he would disappear in the next moment: "How long is how long?"

"Don't worry, it's fine for one night." It just consumes a lot of his energy.Emperor Hades didn't say the last sentence, "Get up, it's time to go out and set off firecrackers." The sound of firecrackers outside has gradually died down, and if you don't go out, it will really disturb people's dreams.

"Ah? Oh." Lin Jiangsui also came to his senses. He came out of Emperor Hades' arms in a hurry, put on his shoes and looked for the firecrackers, incense candles and lighters he had bought before.

After finding something, he looked back at Underworld Emperor. The man was dressed in a black robe just like the first time he saw him. He stood silently behind him, looking at him, which made Lin Jiangsui feel at ease inexplicably.

After going out the door, seeing that the incense sticks on both sides of the door frame had already been burned out, Lin Jiang then lit a few more and inserted them.

Firecrackers were lit, and with the sound of crackling firecrackers, Lin Jiangsui laughed so happily and recklessly for the first time since he was sensible. All the unhappiness and confusion seemed to disappear with the exploding firecrackers, leaving only a piece of broken ground. crumbs.

In the opened door behind him, the light was not turned on, and it was pitch black, and he couldn't see anything clearly, but Lin Jiangsui knew that there was someone waiting for him there.

Reaching out into the darkness, a black figure approached and took his hand: "Turn on the light if you can't see it."

Lin Jiang turned back and closed the door, and then turned on the light: "How can I explain it if someone finds out?" In his heart, he didn't want to share the existence of Emperor Hades with anyone.

"Okay, you can stay with me tonight, and you are not allowed to go back until dawn!" Lin Jiang always knew that he had no reason to be willful, but in front of Emperor Ming, he just wanted to be willful and presumptuous.

"Hmm." Underworld Emperor felt that he should try his best to meet the pet's small requirements.

After packing up the quilt again and returning to the room on the second floor, Lin Jiang spread the quilt and sat on the bed, looking at Emperor Hades who stood aside: "Can't you take off that robe?"

Underworld Emperor looked down at himself, and then looked at Lin Jiangsui who had changed into a sky-blue plaid cotton pajamas, but he didn't see what he was doing. The black robe on his body had become the same as Lin Jiangsui's pajamas. Style, but still black.

Without Lin Jiang calling, Underworld Emperor went to bed spontaneously, lay down beside him, and with his big arms, pulled Lin Jiang into his arms, and turned off the light.

"Good night."

In the darkness, Lin Jiangsui vaguely saw Emperor Hades' head shaking, and a soft object touched his forehead lightly.Then he was pressed into a strong chest, and the arms around him were neither tight nor loose, just enough to make him not feel uncomfortable.

"Good night." Without struggling or resisting, Lin Jiangsui closed his eyes naturally, and the smile on the corner of his mouth did not disappear even in his dream.

This night was the first time Lin Jiangsui had slept in the same bed with someone since he grew up, and it was also the first time he slept so comfortably.

The author has something to say: I think everyone has been waiting for a long time, I thought about it for a day and decided to let Emperor Hades come out... By the way, someone may decide that my baby's personality is a bit bitch, but I just think it doesn't matter if you are male or female, when your heart is fragile You always want someone to rely on to make him cry, don't you?Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people who would take advantage of the void when their sweetheart fell out of love, wouldn't they?
