Last night Xia Yu checked the flight schedule on her mobile phone, so after arriving at the airport, buying tickets, security check, and boarding, a series of things went very smoothly.

They set off at eight o'clock in the morning, and got on the plane to Longcheng at eleven o'clock. When they arrived in Longcheng, it was only 03:30 in the afternoon, the sun was still high in the sky, it was warm and very comfortable.

As soon as she got out of the airport, Xia Yu took a long, deep breath.

The cold air poured into the lungs from the nasal cavity, and the entire chest cavity felt comfortable as if it had been purified.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at the traffic in the distance with a relaxed expression: "It's better to be in Dragon City."

Every time he goes back, he likes Dragon City more.

Zhou Ding didn't speak, his eyes fell on Xia Yu.

Xia Yu was wearing his clothes. Although Xia Yu was also tall at 1.8 meters, she was still a bit shorter compared to him, and she was several sizes smaller than him.On Xia Yu's body, all his clothes became oversize styles, and even the sleeves were rolled up twice like a child's - he has a long arm span from his small wrist line, so most of the clothes are custom-made, and the sleeves will be a little longer .

It looks like a child stealing an adult's clothes, which is a little funny and a little cute.

But more, it is an indescribable secret sense of satisfaction and excitement.Even without direct physical contact, he still had the illusion that he was clinging to and wrapping Xia Yu.

He likes Xia Yu wearing his clothes.

Xia Yu didn't notice what Zhou Ding was thinking. He looked into the distance and said, "There are not as many cars as before. I guess they all went back for the New Year."

Zhou Ding hummed: "It's much deserted."

"It's not bad, it's not so noisy."

While talking, a taxi stopped in front of the two of them.

Xia Yu waved at Zhou Ding: "I'm leaving first, I'll treat you to dinner tonight, and I'll return the clothes to you after washing."

Zhou Ding said: "Don't bother, just give it to me."

Xia Yu shook his head at him, said no more, closed the door and let the driver drive.

Zhou Ding stood where he was, until Xia Yu's car completely disappeared from sight, then he also got in the car and went in another direction - he was going to the mall to buy crutches for Xia Yu.

Dragon City University has been fully closed. During this special period, in order to make it easier for everyone to carry their luggage, cars are allowed to enter the school.

It was also convenient for Xia Yu, the taxi took him directly to the downstairs of the dormitory building.It only took him 5 minutes to jump back to his room with one foot, holding on to the banister of the stairs.

Once inside, Xia Yu immediately fell on the bed.

He opened his hands and closed his eyes, enjoying the comfort and security of this room.

All the emotions of the past seemed to dissipate in an instant after entering the door. Not only did the body relax, but the heart also felt calm.

Safe and calm, very comfortable.

In this comfort, Xia Yu lay motionless until 04:30.

Feeling that it was almost time, he got up and took off Zhou Ding's clothes and changed back to his own.After changing, he looked at the clothes piled up on the bed, and couldn't help laughing.

He thought that in the morning, he didn't want to hang up his crotch, so he asked Zhou Ding for a pair of underwear.

But Zhou Ding didn't bring new ones, all the ones he brought were worn.The worn underpants are not as smooth as when they were newly purchased, and they are full of traces left by the owner, such as deformed outlines, such as stretched fabrics.

All in all, under the circumstances that the waist and size did not match, Xia Yu felt that wearing these underwear on him was equivalent to not wearing it, and it was not much different from hanging an empty crotch.

Slowly, the corners of the mouth were raised, and there was a trace of complacency and joy in the funny.

Because this person with such superior conditions was discovered by him, and he picked him out of so many people at a glance.

Xia Yu rolled her eyes, and happily sent a message to Zhou Ding——

[Xia Yu: The restaurant opposite the school is good, how about eating there? 】

Zhou Ding replied quickly.

[Zhou Ding: Good. 】

[Zhou Ding: Are you leaving now?I'll pick you up. 】

[Xia Yu: No, I'll go there by myself. 】

【Zhou Ding: Alright, then I'm going too. 】

[Xia Yu: Yes. 】

After sending the message, Xia Yu took a taxi.

The distance from the dormitory to the school gate is a starting price.

The driver was stunned when he came to pick him up, and kept confirming with him: "Only to the gate? Really only to the gate? Just to the gate of the dormitory?"

It wasn't until Xia Yu repeatedly affirmed and explained that his leg was injured that the driver finally stopped being shocked.

When Xia Yu arrived at the restaurant, Zhou Ding hadn't come yet.

After he finished ordering, Zhou Ding came in with a slightly slender box in his arms.

"It's for you." Zhou Ding sat down and handed the box to Xia Yu.

"A crutch?"

"It's a gentleman's cane. The clerk said this is more suitable for young people, not so old-fashioned."

Zhou Ding raised his chin and motioned, "Open it and have a look."

Xia Yu opened it according to her words, and saw a black and slender wooden cane lying in the box.

The base of the cane is clad in silver metal, and the handle at the top features a finely carved silver fox wearing a bow tie.

Zhou Ding asked: "Does it look good?"

Xia Yu looked at the cane and blinked: "It looks good."

The workmanship is very delicate, and it is in line with his aesthetics. The combination of black and silver has an inexplicable sense of abstinence, but, "Isn't it a bit too high-profile to use this in school?"

Zhou Ding said without thinking, "No, it matches you very well."

The first time he saw this cane, he felt that it was very suitable for Xia Yu. One was a delicate person, and the other was a delicate cane. They fit together perfectly.On the contrary, if Xia Yu used the crutch stuck under the armpit in the hospital, and the wooden crutch, not only would it not fit, but it would be weird and more eye-catching.

This cane is really pretty, Xia Yu didn't refuse any more, just said: "How much?"

"Not much money."

Xia Yu looked up at him: "How much?"

Zhou Ding was silent: "It's not expensive, just two thousand."

"What about the invoice?"

"No receipt required."

Xia Yu: "..."

He turned on his phone and transferred five thousand to Zhou Ding, "Okay, let's eat."

Zhou Ding glanced at the transfer: "Too much."

After he finished speaking, he paused, and lowered his voice as if thinking of something, "I will pay for the next two openings."

The fourth strategy of He Xinyang: find every opportunity to give something to the other party, don't be deliberate, but give the other party what they need.

Article [-] of He Xinyang's strategy: If the other party likes to "not owe each other" in property, then you are more "neutral to each other" than the other party. Whether you owe her or she owes you, as long as there is a difference of a dime in between, We must find a way to turn it into an opportunity to get along in the future!

Xia Yu frowned slightly: "Don't say this outside."

"No one heard."

Zhou Ding asked again, "Is this arrangement okay?"

Xia Yun hummed.

In this way, Xia Yu knew the truth.

The four- and five-star hotels they live in here are about five hundred a day, so the price of the walking stick that Zhou Ding gave should be around four thousand.

He suddenly became a little curious about Zhou Ding's family background.

The little guy just provided him with a few films, but he kept transferring money.The same is true in Sanya. If the cruise ship fails to book a ticket, the price will be increased to buy someone else's.Zhou Ding also rented the villa where the five of them lived alone.Now it’s the same as giving him a cane, and it costs 4000 yuan to buy it.Besides these, the most intuitive thing is Zhou Ding's dressing.

Almost every pair of shoes is a co-branded or out-of-print item, and all the clothes have LOGOs, some of which are not so obvious, but Xia Yu can recognize them at a glance. ——They all study art to deal with "beauty", and fashion trends are what most of them will pay attention to.

With such a generous shot, Zhou Ding's family should be either rich or expensive.

But how could such a pure and innocent boy be raised by a family that is either rich or expensive?

Somewhat strange.

While eating, Zhou Ding suddenly said: "Don't eat this braised one, there is soy sauce in it, it will leave scars if you eat it."

Xia Yu looked at him: "Did your mother tell you?"

His mother also said that when he was a child, as long as he broke somewhere, the family would not make braised things at home, saying that it would make the wound darker and leave scars.

Zhou Ding said: "My grandma said it."

Xia Yu nodded: "I..."

"Six? Team Zhou?"

A voice suddenly and loudly sounded at this moment.

Both Xia Yu and Zhou Ding were startled, and looked up at the direction of the door at the same time.

I saw Shen Youtang and Song Qizheng walking in from the outside together.

As soon as Shen Youtang came in, he said, "Didn't you go home? Why are you eating here?"

Xia Yu looked natural: "I won't go back to celebrate the New Year this year."

He asked again, "Why didn't you go back?"

Shen Youtang said: "There is no one at home, it's boring, so I went back to school. Anyway, my home is nearby, and it will take 15 minutes to go back."

He looked at Zhou Ding again, "Where's the Zhou and Ezhou teams?"

Zhou Ding's expression was indifferent, as if he didn't notice the momentary pause: "Like you, there is no one at home, so I came back first."

Shen Youtang snorted, looked at Xia Yu and said, "Let me make a table together? We haven't seen each other for so long, so we just have a chat."

After finishing speaking, he added a sentence, "Brother pays the bill."

Xia Yu didn't want to share the table, but before he could refuse, Shen Youtang sat down beside him, and said to himself, "The old duck pot here is very delicious, do you want to try it? And your favorite sweet and sour fish Not bad."

Zhou Ding suddenly said, "Laoyabao and sweet and sour fish are ordered, but they haven't been served yet."

Shen Youtang looked at Zhou Ding: "Team Zhou also came here to eat?"

Zhou Ding: "Yes."

"Okay, just order it." Shen Youtang nodded, and pulled Song Qi to sit down.Song Qi is one of Xia Yu's freshman roommates and a native of Longcheng. His home is in the community next to the school.

After sitting down, Shen Youtang flipped through the menu and ordered a few more dishes. After ordering, he said, "By the way, why did you two eat together? I asked you just now, but you didn't seem to say anything."

Xia Yu said briefly: "The manuscript fee has been paid."

Shen Youtang thought about it for a while before he realized that Xia Yu had received a lot of orders some time ago, many of which were paintings of Zhou Ding, so it was reasonable to invite Money Tree to have a meal.

He felt relieved, and smiled: "You earn a lot, right?"

"good."

Shen Youtang looked at the box next to him again: "What is that? A cane?"

Xia Yu was a little annoyed, but he didn't show it on his face. He hummed and said, "I accidentally fell on my leg, so it's not convenient for me to walk."

"Did you fall on your leg? What's going on? Let me take a look." As he said that, Shen Youtang bent down to look at Xia Yu's leg.

Xia Yu frowned and shrank her legs: "It's okay, it's just a little swollen, it will be fine after a while."

Seeing Xia Yu shrank his legs, Shen Youtang didn't look any further, and only said: "That's good, as long as you don't hurt any bones."

He also said, "It is not convenient for you to walk, so isn't it unsafe for you to live in the school alone? There is no elevator in the staff dormitory, and it is too dangerous to go up and down. Why don't you live in my house? Then I can help you, together New Year's Eve also..."

At this time, Zhou Ding stood up suddenly, and the chair made a harsh sound on the tiles.

The speech on the table stopped abruptly, and all three of them looked up at him together.

Zhou Ding glanced at Shen Youtang, and said expressionlessly, "I'm going out to smoke a cigarette, you continue to chat."

The author has something to say: Zhou Ding: I remember you, kid.
