you are the cutest in the world

The snow was falling heavily, and a thick layer had accumulated in the flower beds on both sides of the school gate.

Wei Xu stood motionless on the steps outside the shop, staring at the familiar "classmates being picked up by their parents".

Suddenly there was a gust of cold wind, blowing fine snowflakes onto his face, the boy narrowed his eyes, took two steps back, and hid in the eaves of the shop.

"Wei Xu, hasn't your brother come to pick you up yet?"

Wei Xu turned his head and saw Du Shao, wrapped like a ball, standing under his mother's umbrella, greeting him.

"Coming soon," he replied.

"What?" Du Shao couldn't hear clearly.

"I said? He's coming soon!"

"what?"

"None of your business!" Wei Xu increased his voice somewhat depressed.

"Oh." Du Shao heard it clearly this time.

The little fat man waved at him with a good temper: "Then I'll go back first, bye!"

Wei Xu pursed his lips, looked down at his red fingers that were so cold, rubbed his hands to no avail, then took a few breaths of hot air on the cold fingers, and then quickly inserted his hands Into the hot water bag that no longer has the heat.

It's all because of the heavy snowfall today, and I usually come here every day to sell roasted sweet potatoes and deep-fried dumplings? The uncle didn't come either——Wei Xu thought a little dejectedly.

Reminiscent of the steaming roasted sweet potatoes, the boy has a deeper understanding of the severe cold of winter.

"Cub!"

Wei Xu suddenly raised his head and looked around but couldn't find his brother's location. After a while, he saw Wei You, who was wrapped in a cotton coat and wearing a cotton mask, riding a battery car through the white snow fog come over.

"Brother!" His eyes lit up, and he immediately jumped down the steps and ran over.

Wei You parked the battery car next to the boy, took off his schoolbag and the hot water bottle hanging around his neck and carried it on his shoulders, then patted the snowflakes on the child and explained, "I'll go to the supermarket to buy some I got something, it’s late, did Gua Zai wait for a long time?”

Wei Xu shook his head, stared at his battery car and asked, "Did brother buy an electric car?"

"Of course not? Ah, this is from the fruit shop? Uncle borrowed it? My brother bought too many things, so I'm afraid I won't be able to pick you up in time."

While talking, Wei You hugged him to the seat in front of him, opened the padded coat and wrapped the child inside, with only half of his head exposed.

"Is it cold now?"

The child shook his head, turned around and said, "It's not cold, it's very warm."

"It's fine if it's not cold, that melon cub sit tight, we're going home!"

"Ok!"

Wei You started the electric bike, and because he was worried that the road would be too slippery, he rode very slowly. Even so, the wind and snow blowing in front of him was still so confusing that people couldn't tell the direction.

Wei Xu's whole body was wrapped in Wei You's overcoat, his whole body was warm and comfortable, and his breath was filled with the familiar "reassuring" smell.

He poked his head out from his collar and looked at the snow-stained white streets with his eyes wide open. He felt that the heavy snow that was flying all over the sky was unreal like a dream.

When he got home, Wei You refilled Wei Xu with a hot water bottle and asked him to sit on the sofa and watch TV, while he went into the kitchen to cook with the fried rice he had just bought from the supermarket.

The TV screen showed a kind of gray and dark tone unique to old TVs, but Wei Xu didn't care, and watched cartoons on the sofa with a hot water bottle in his arms.

Time seemed to pass by at once? After an episode of animation, Wei Xu recovered and realized that there was no movement in the kitchen.

He called "Brother", seeing if there was any response, he immediately put down the hot water bottle, stepped on cotton shoes and walked towards the kitchen.

When the kitchen door was opened, not only was there no one inside, there was not even a trace of heat and oily smoke.

Wei Xu suddenly panicked, and while calling "Brother", he searched the whole house, but still couldn't find anyone, and finally had to go back to the kitchen.

He looked at the glass window at the back of the cabinet. The snow outside had stopped, and the sky was full of sunshine. The bright light was reflected on the glass, like a thick fog.

Suddenly an ominous premonition struck, the boy took off his cotton shoes, climbed up to the cupboard with hands and feet, and looked down with his forehead pressed against the glass window. Sure enough, he saw the familiar white figure walking in the cramped and dark space. In the narrow alley.

"elder brother!"

He shouted vigorously.

Wei You seemed to be aware of it and turned around to look up. Half of his face was reflected in the bright sunlight, making his face blurry.

Wei Xu hurriedly opened the window and asked loudly, "Are you going? What, don't you want melons?"

With a smile on the young man's face, he raised his hand and waved it, as if saying goodbye, then turned around and walked resolutely towards the entrance of the alley.

"elder brother!"

"Wait for me……"

"elder brother!"

"elder brother!"

Wei Xu woke up suddenly, and when he opened his eyes, there was a snow-white ceiling.

A layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and when he heard the whirring sound of the air conditioner, he realized that he had dreamed about something from his childhood again.

Looking sideways at the window, the curtains on half of the floor-to-ceiling windows are open, and there is sparse sleet floating outside, and the cold wind scrapes the glass, making a piercing whistling sound.

Perhaps it was because of this sound that he had such a terrible nightmare.

Wei Xu closed his eyes as if the phantom in his dream still remained on his eyelids, and it took him a while to get out of the nervous and anxious mood.

He sat up, hurriedly put on a loose sweater, put on his slippers and walked towards the stairs.

In the open kitchen downstairs, Wei You is standing by the sink washing vegetables, and lyrical music is playing on the stereo, and the room is filled with a quiet and soft atmosphere.

Hearing his footsteps coming downstairs, Wei You raised his head in surprise: "Why did you get up so quickly?"

Wei Xu walked behind him silently, put his arms around his waist and hugged him.

Wei You asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"

"I'm having a nightmare." Wei Xu leaned his head on his shoulder and replied in a low voice, with a languid? sleepy feeling in his voice, making him look a little bit out of sorts.

"What did you dream about?"

Wei Xu rubbed his head against his neck, but did not answer.

After a while, he changed the subject in a natural tone: "Cooking so early today?"

"My mother called me just now and said? Come over to eat at night, I think? Make two cold dishes and put them in the refrigerator."

"Oh……"

"Before they come, why don't you go and sleep for a while?" Wei You persuaded, "It's hard to end this project, and take advantage of these two days to have more time to rest."

Wei Xu met before? Two seniors in the same industry jointly opened an architectural firm. It was difficult in the early stage of starting a business. When busy, they often couldn’t sleep for two hours a day. Wei You really felt pain in his eyes? Very well, it’s okay now Just urged him to rest and sleep.

Wei Xu responded, but didn't? Let go, still hug him, Wei You go? Wherever he goes, he follows, like a big koala.

Wei You was disturbed by him? No way? He stopped his movements and asked, "Aren't you sleepy?"

"Sleepy."

"Why don't you go to sleep then?"

Wei Xu rubbed his neck and fell silent again.

"Actually, you have to work hard like this. What if you break your health? Our family is not short of money." Wei You sighed and said his own concerns. "Besides, you are only 28 years old. The studio is already powerful enough."

Wei Xu shook his head: "Not enough, I want to make a lot of money."

"What do you do with so much money?"

"Didn't I say it before?" Wei Xu raised his head and rested his chin on his shoulder, "I want to build a big villa on a small island with few people, with a courtyard and a spacious There is a big terrace, where we sit on the benches on the terrace to drink tea and bask in the sun on sunny days, and lie on the rocking chairs in the hallway on rainy days to listen to the wind and watch the rain, or hide in the room to read and sleep.”

"What about the big terrace, which is near the sea? The house is too humid, and the wood has been destroyed in a few years? You've soaked it to pieces."

"Have you forgotten what your husband does? I'm a first-class architect now, so can't I trust your husband more?"

Wei You couldn't help laughing every time he heard such fart remarks from him, and said, "Stop talking nonsense, go to bed quickly."

Wei Xu buried his head in his neck again: "You can sleep with me, I can't sleep well without you, I just had a nightmare."

"Wait a minute? Mom and Dad are coming over..."

"If you have time, just sleep for half an hour, okay?"

Wei You was no match for him? He pleaded softly, but finally let go: "Okay, then half an hour."

Wei Xu immediately let go of his hand, kissed his ear and said, "Thank you brother."

Putting the ingredients aside, Wei You dried his hands and followed him upstairs.

It was fashionable not to feel it downstairs, but when he walked into the room and saw the gloomy snow scene outside through the glass covered with white mist, Wei You felt a little bit of the winter chill.

"It will be great when there will be a heavy snowfall in Jinyang." He couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and then added: "Forget it, in Jinyang's weather, it's already very face-saving to have a sleet."

"You want to see the snow, we can go to Chuanlin." Wei Xu continued.

His words brought back memories of Wei You: "I remember when you were very young, there seemed to be a heavy snowfall in Xiangfang."

"Well, in the second grade? When."

"I have such a good memory, I can't even remember."

Wei Xu sat on the bed, pursed his lips and smiled quietly.

Wei You set an alarm on his phone for half an hour, and then lay down under the covers.

As soon as he lay down, Wei Xu turned over and hugged him.

Wei You felt his well-articulated fingers touch his Adam's apple from his lips, and finally stayed on his chest, as if he was feeling his heartbeat.

Wei You has long been used to the habit of him insisting on sleeping with someone in his arms. If not for Wei Xu's arms, he might not be able to sleep well.

Maybe it was Xiaoxue Feifei's? The environment was too suitable for taking a nap, so I closed my eyes and lay down for a while? Wei You also felt a little drowsy?

In a blur of consciousness, he heard Wei Xu whispering in his ear, "Brother."

"Ok?"

After a moment of silence, the young man whispered, "I love you so much."

Wei You raised the corners of his mouth and lazily responded: "Understood, I love you too."

"Different."

"Ok?"

After waiting for a while, Wei You fell asleep before the young man could speak out again.

But the person who was sleepy just now opened his eyes, quietly staring at the sleeping faces of the people around him as if he couldn't see enough.

After going on for a long time, Wei Xu got up and secretly kissed his eyes.

You can't imagine how much I love you.
