Embrace the light

A month passed quickly.

During this period, Ian and Heng lived according to the usual routine every day - Ian cooked, wrote, ran, Heng ran, went to the gym, shooting range, kung fu gym, and watched movies on the sofa in the study.

On this day, Ian asked Heng: "It's time to renew the membership card. How is the experience this month? Should I continue for a month or a little longer?"

Heng thought for a while, and replied, "Only continue with the gym."

Ian asked, "Isn't the experience of the shooting gallery and kung fu gym not good?"

Heng paused and replied, "Yes."

According to Heng's wishes, Yi An went to the gym with Heng after the run, and then paid for the monthly membership again.

Sitting on the bed after taking a bath at night, when Heng pushed the door open, Ian stared curiously at Heng in pajamas.

His body seems to be more fit and stylish, and his spirit is much better than a month ago. It seems that going to the gym is indeed more effective for Heng.

Seeing Ian's eyes following him, Heng asked him, "What are you looking at?"

Ian replied: "Look at your fitness results. Now Heng really looks more stylish and better-looking."

Heng raised his eyebrows and accepted Ian's compliment.

In the past month, except for the first five or six days when Ian was afraid of the dark and being alone, he gradually returned to normal.

For Ian's hobby of "seeking abuse", I will never comment.

Today is also an ordinary and quiet night.

Hearing Heng's slow and regular breathing, Ian quietly got up from the bed.

Holding a dim night light in his hand, he slowly approached Heng.

After confirming that Heng didn't respond to his movements and that his breathing was still slow and regular, Ian moved closer.

Gently lifted the thin quilt around Heng's waist, and then slowly lifted the hem of Heng's pajamas.

Because it is in a relaxed state, the shape of Heng's abdominal muscles is not obvious, but the vague outline of the eight-pack abs can be seen.Ian observed for half a minute, then stretched out his right hand, just about to touch it lightly, but his finger was caught suddenly.

Ian was startled, and the night light fell on Heng's body.

Heng had already sat up on the bed, and after releasing Ian's fingers, he turned on the bedside lamp.

Ian stuck out his tongue for being caught on the spot, "Sorry, did I wake you up?"

Heng watched him silently.

Ian added: "Sorry, I just wanted to see if you got your abs done."

"have a look?"

Ian choked, and immediately confessed: "I still want to touch it, really, just a little bit. But you woke up before I touched you."

Seeing Heng still looking at him silently, Yi An suddenly sensed the hooliganism of his behavior.

"Don't be angry, I won't disturb your rest next time." Ian put the quilt back on Heng in a fawning manner, and then helped him to lie down, "Don't be angry, go back to sleep Ha Heng. I won't disturb you anymore, good night , constant."

After finishing speaking, Ian lightly touched Heng's shoulders a few times to comfort him. Yi An quickly picked up the night light, turned off the bedside lamp on Heng's side, and went back to his bed to lie down and go to sleep.

The next day, Ian woke up early and prepared his favorite breakfast for Heng.

During the meal, Yi'an Jianheng didn't show any special expression, thinking that he should be forgiven for disturbing people's sleep last night.

After eating, Ian was strolling around the room to digest food, when Ian heard someone knock on the yard door.

He thought about whether he hadn't bought a courier in the past few days or whether Heng had placed a shopping order, and walked forward to open the door.The door was only half opened, and suddenly a pointed head stuck in.

"Oh~ my dear An An, good morning."

It was the captain's cadenced, dramatic voice.

"Captain!" Ian happily called his name, then jumped out and hugged his body, touching his two wings by the way.

At this time, a young man with blond hair and blue eyes rushed over to him. He was a little taller than Ian. After this man rushed over, he hugged Ian from behind.

Ian turned around and gave the person behind him a big frontal hug.

"Nono."

It was Mino and his mecha-the captain who came.

Although the design of Mino's mecha was inspired by the ancient myths and legends of the phoenix, the king of birds, Mino, who had just been enlightened, insisted that he was a "spaceship (a flying ship)", and the name of the captain came from this.

Ian opened another door for the captain to enter.

"Oh~ my dear old friends Xiaoyueyue and Xiaoriri, how are you? I haven't seen you for a long time. Your flowers are blooming more beautifully~" The captain began to greet the roses and sunflowers in the yard as soon as he entered the door. .

Now in mid-August, it is the season when the sunflowers are in full bloom.The rose flowers are still fragrant.

"Nuo Nuo, why didn't you send me a message in advance when you came back?"

Mino replied, "Want to surprise you?"

Ian nodded, "It's a surprise. What do you want to eat today, I'll go buy ingredients and prepare."

Mino said he wanted to eat dumplings, but Ian said it was all right.

Entering the dining room, Mino saw Heng standing at the door of the study. He paused for a moment, looked Heng carefully up and down for a while, and then turned sideways and said to Ian, "The appearance and shape seem to be a little different than before. It seems that the fitness effect you mentioned It's true."

At this time, the captain suddenly rushed over, stretching out his wings towards Heng, "Oh~ hello, dear handsome Heng. It's the first time we meet, I'm the captain."

Heng knew about mechs from the tablet, so he was not surprised that the talking "big iron bird" suddenly rushed to him. He reached out and touched the captain's wing tip lightly.

Mino then extended his hand to Heng, "Hi, Heng, I'm Mino, Ian's friend."

Heng politely reached out and touched Mino lightly.

"Heng, this is the 'Nuo Nuo' Mino I mentioned." Yi'an Chaoheng introduced Mino again, and then said, "It is thanks to Nuonuo's help that I was able to meet you."

"Really." Heng looked at Mino.

Ian and Mino said in a text message that when Hengchu woke up, he explained to Heng the source.However, in Mino's view, the details cannot stand scrutiny, so Ian suddenly mentioned the reason why the two knew each other, and Mino quickly changed the subject.

"Are we going to buy ingredients now?"

"That's right, we need to go buy the ingredients and get ready." Ian went to the bedroom to get his phone, and then asked Heng: "Nuo Nuo wants to eat dumplings, we're going to the supermarket to buy the ingredients, will you go with us, or Are you staying at home?"

"Home."

So Heng stayed at home, and Ian and Mino went out to the supermarket together.

After coming out of Ian's house, Mino saw that Ian didn't even lock the gate of the yard, so he asked him, "Why didn't you lock the door?"

Ian asked strangely, "Why did you lock the door?"

"Aren't you afraid that he will come out and walk around casually, or leave quietly?"

Ian replied: "Why did Heng walk around or leave? He has no previous memories, and we got along very well during this time. He has no reason to leave my house and go to the unknown world outside. And if he really wants to If I go to look outside, I will lock the door and he will find a chance to leave."

Mino nodded, "Yes, but don't be afraid even if he leaves, the chip can track him."

Ian also nodded, "However, I hope to get along well with Hengping, and I don't want him to know my identity as an exile, and I don't want him to feel restrained, so our getting along will become very awkward, so we can't be very friendly." accompany each other well."

The two went to the supermarket and bought the fresh ingredients needed to make dumplings.Ian thought about packing several more flavors in order to avoid constant dislike.

Mino said with emotion: "Why do I feel that you treat him better than me."

Ian replied seriously: "You are all my friends, and I will treat both of you equally well."

Mino reached out and squeezed his face, and then took the captain to pick some fresh melons and fruits, milk and yogurt as visiting gifts, and then paid for all the purchased items together.

Mino has always been very generous in money, and Ian has never been polite to him.

After all, Mino even gave him a high-priced exile like "Heng", and there is no need for other such small money and tips, no matter how polite they are.

Then I can only show my cooking skills and make delicious dishes to show my heart.

All goods were put into the belly of the captain.

Ian was once again amazed by the captain’s stomach. Now the captain’s form is just a 1.6-meter-high phoenix, with slender legs, narrow body, slender neck, and pointed head. Put in so many things.

The size of the storage space of the mecha is not consistent with the appearance, they are as magical as Maitreya Buddha's Cosmos Bag.

Ian reached out to touch the captain's stomach, and the captain touched Ian's head with his wings.

After returning home, wash your hands, knead the dough, roll the skin, chop the ingredients, make the stuffing, open the bag, put it in the pot, pick it up, and the steaming hot and fragrant dumplings are ready.

Ian and Minuo brought up five plates containing the dumplings, and arranged the bowls, chopsticks and dipping sauces one by one.

"Heng, come over for dinner."

Although compared with Mino, Heng is more like a guest and waits for dinner, but Ian, the chef, doesn't say anything, and Mino can't say anything.

Ian introduced five plates of dumplings with different flavors one by one, including shepherd's purse stuffing, corn stuffing, mushroom stuffing, celery stuffing, and acanthus cabbage stuffing.

Contrary to Ian's expectations, Heng seems to like dumplings, a traditional festival food.

Seeing that both Heng and Minuo had a great appetite for this dumpling meal, Ian, the chef, felt a sense of accomplishment.

After the meal, Ian chatted with Mino, and Heng went back to the study as usual, nestled on the sofa, read a book, watched his mobile phone and tablet.

"Is he like this every day?" Mino whispered to Ian after entering the study.

Ian nodded, "Heng doesn't talk much, but he's easy to get along with."

Mino was skeptical.

"By the way, Nuonuo." Ian thought of Christine and Tut, and asked Mino: "Do you know the Christine and Tut I mentioned in the text message?"

Mino immediately put his hand on his forehead, "Stop talking, why did you meet this witch..."

Hearing what Mino said, Ian knew that they really knew each other.

"An'an, I don't know if I told you, I have a 'fiancée'..."

Ian was startled: "What!?!"

"It's like this, are my father and her mother good friends? When her mother was pregnant, she had a party with my family, and my father joked, 'If she is a daughter, she will be my daughter-in-law'. Although it was just a joke, but she really gave birth to Ke Ever since Christine was a girl, the grown-ups have been teasing us, calling us 'fiancée' and 'fiancee'."

Ian asked Mino: "Then do you like her?"

Mino nodded, "I like it, but she didn't call me. Remember the love letter I asked you to write?"

Yian remembered that Mino had indeed asked him to write a love letter for him before, but not long after, Mino announced that his confession failed.

"So it was written for Christine?"

"Yes. In the past, the grown-ups always made jokes about us. I really disliked it. And you have seen Christine. She is different from ordinary gentle and sweet girls. She has been naughty like a boy since she was a child." , mischievous, and also likes to play tricks on people, always making troubles in the Pedro family. And when she was very young, she was taller than me, so she always called me 'little potato, little potato', It was very annoying. But after Christine and I got into a university, I found that she was not consistent with my previous impression. Although she was still a very female man, she was very loyal and brave, and her grades in all subjects were also very good. Very top-notch, she is a very good girl, independent, kind and straightforward, I was gradually attracted to her. But I mustered up the courage to confess, but she actually said that I listened too much to the elders’ nagging and got into the drama.” Mino said After that, he became depressed. The first time he liked a girl, he ended up being rejected.

"Then you can explain to her that you didn't confess because of a joke you grew up with."

Mino shook his head, "I explained it, but she doesn't believe it. Now whenever the two families have gatherings, I will call myself sick and not attend."

"Okay." As for matters of love, Ian has no experience, and he can't give Mino any substantive good advice.

"An'an, don't talk about me, talk about you."

"Tell me?"

"That's right." Mino asked curiously, "Have you never met a girl you like? Even if you just find it very attractive."

Ian shook his head, "I don't seem to like anyone."

"What about your big fan, that ID is 'Weiling', doesn't he often confess his love to you in the comment section."

Ian's pen name on C.com is "Ling".

"She just likes my words and works, not me as a person. I don't want to mix two-dimensional and three-dimensional."

Speaking of Two-dimensional and three-dimensional, we have to talk about the acquaintance of Ian and Mino.

Ian had previously posted an advisory post on the Internet when he was still in college.The general content of the post is that the host gets along well with his roommates in college, but his relationship with other classmates is very average, and even belongs to the category of not being seen.The poster thought he hadn’t done anything to provoke public outrage or suspicion, but the students didn’t seem to like his approaching.He is not slovenly and hideous in appearance, why this phenomenon occurs, the host is puzzled.

Mino was bored with posting at the time, and after seeing Ian's post, he sent a private message to Ian asking if he was "Ling".

Ian was taken aback, he didn't understand how he could be recognized by someone on Posting.com all of a sudden.

Seeing that Ian didn't answer, Mino sent another text to explain, and he recognized it from his use of symbols and the habit of using "De De Land".Said that he is his C network fan, not a hacker or a sunspot.

Because Mino used the same pseudonym on Posting.com and C.com, Ian went to C.com to check, and he did have a fan of 'promise'.

But Ian didn't admit it to Mino, and Mino politely stopped asking.

Later, the two interacted more and more on Posting.com and C.com, until one day, Ian offered to exchange star accounts with Mino.

After all, even in real life, Ian has never met a friend who he can chat with so well.
