Heart distance

Lu Tinglan stood in front of him with a smile, "Your brother called today and invited me to your house for dinner."

Han Ziqi panicked for a while and remained motionless.

"So you don't welcome me?"

Han Ziqi regained his composure, opened the door wide and invited Lu Tinglan in.

In a room with only two people, it is inevitable that there will be tension, especially at this time, the two of them are still in a relationship that is neither awkward nor awkward.

Han Ziqi took a glass of water and handed it to Lu Tinglan, and stood aside, as if treating a stranger, "I'll cut the fruit for you."

"No, I won't eat."

It has nothing to do with whether the other party eats or not, Han Ziqi just doesn't want to be in the same space as Lu Tinglan.

He didn't want smart people to notice the emotion he had managed to hide too quickly.

As long as no one finds the door hidden in his heart, he can always seal himself up and live like a normal person.

No expectations, no disappointments, and no more suffering.

Han Ziqi turned around in such a hurry that the door panel slammed into the numbness of his elbow, and Han Ziqi's forehead was numb from the pain.

"What's wrong?" Lu Tinglan heard the sound and got up to look, "Where did it go?"

Lu Tinglan held Han Ziqi's forearm, and confirmed with him again where he was hit, "Is it here?"

"It's all right." It took a moment to get numb, and Han Ziqi was about to pull his arm out of Lu Tinglan's hand.

But being held tightly by others, he couldn't let go at all.

Lu Tinglan dragged him, bent down, and blew lightly on the bruised area.

The warm air with the moist breath of the mouth flowed along the forearm and along the direction of the heartbeat, making Han Ziqi's fragile ears red.

"You, stop bragging." Han Ziqi struggled hard, "I don't hurt."

Lu Tinglan refused to give up, "You know what I mean."

How could it be that Han Ziqi didn't know that even if he spent three years forgetting the meaning of blowing the other's wounds, once someone mentioned it, his memory would be instantly reshaped.

The so-called forgetting curve will never hold true for him.

He knew everything about this person, even if he lied to heaven and earth, he still couldn't let him go.

But knowing the other party's purpose and accepting his behavior are completely different things, "Let go!"

"Brother, brother and sister are back!"

The sound of the door opening broke the dispute between the two, and Lu Tinglan let him go.

"Brother Ting Song, tonight I will make you your favorite astragalus tripe soup."

"Okay, thank you, Brother Jun, I've wanted to drink for a long time."

Han Ziqi pressed his forearm that was pinched red, and fled in a hurry, "I'm going to cut the fruit."

When the meal was served, Chang Shan handed the spoon to Lu Tinglan, "Mr. Lu, try it quickly, Si Jun has been talking to me for a day. He said you like this very much, but you know, tripe and astragalus are all delicious." The ingredients are hard to find in the United States, and we have traveled a lot.”

Lu Tinglan continued, "Thank you, I'm interested."

He took a sip.

Sitting next to him, Han Sijun couldn't wait, "Brother Ting Song, is the drink good? Is it good?"

"Well, it's very delicious." Lu Tinglan said, "During your illness, your brother also made it for me a few times."

"Really?" Chang Shan answered first, "I've known Ziqi for so many years, but I've never seen him cook. Certain people are really lucky."

Han Ziqi only felt that Sister Shan would not open any pot and carry which pot.

"Hurry up and eat." Reluctantly, Han Ziqi had to forcefully interrupt.

"Is that better made by brother or younger brother?" Han Sijun insisted on asking.

"It's all delicious." Lu Tinglan lowered his head and took another sip, "During that time, I often dreamed of him making soup for me."

"I know, I know." Han Si Junyue chatted more and more excitedly, "It was said on TV that this is called thinking every day and dreaming at night. I want Super Wings, and I dream of him every day. Is it, is it my brother! "

"Brother Ting Song, do you think about him day and night?"

"Yes."

Han Ziqi couldn't even eat anymore, so he just wanted to flip the table.

He suddenly thought of something, took out a small object from his pocket and handed it to Lu Tinglan, "The professor asked me to give you this."

"Professor Ruiz?"

"Yeah." Before leaving the laboratory today, Professor Ruiz gave the things to Han Ziqi and asked him to hand them over.

"Is he your mentor?"

"Ah."

"Coincidentally, when I was studying at MIT, he was the tutor of both undergraduate and graduate students."

"The professor told me."

Lu Tinglan looked at him and smiled: "You seem to have talked a lot about me."

"Not at all." Han Ziqi didn't want to continue, seeing that the other party hadn't picked up anything yet, "Do you still want this?"

"My hands are full of oil." Lu Tinglan said, "Put it in my suit pocket for me."

Han Ziqi had almost finished his meal, he got up and went to the hanger, stuffed things into Lu Tinglan's pocket, but was blocked by the things.

Han Ziqi quickly realized what it was through the outline.He glanced back at Lu Tinglan, but the other party didn't notice him, so he quietly took out the rectangular paper box in his pocket.

Han Ziqi opened it, and there was only one cigarette missing in it. When he had a close negotiation with Lu Tinglan just now, he didn't smell tobacco on him, and he didn't seem to smoke often.

But as long as it is worn around, there is an attempt to smoke.Han Ziqi gritted his teeth, took out the pack of cigarettes, ran quietly into the bedroom, and stuffed them into a drawer.He pretended to be nonchalant and sat in the living room watching TV.

After everyone has finished eating, the family still adheres to the principle that the cook does not wash the dishes.

Han Ziqi came to the kitchen sink.

After a while, Lu Tinglan rolled up his sleeves and walked in, "Do you need help?"

"No need." Han Ziqi said coldly.

Lu Tinglan ignored it, and took out a bowl from the sink to wash with Han Ziqi.

The man next to him was still wearing a well-tailored haute couture shirt, and his bony hands were carelessly clinging to the detergent foam.

"What are you doing with my cigarettes?"

Lu Tinglan's tone was unusually calm, but Han Ziqi heard the responsibility and criticism.

Han Ziqi hid his panic and picked up another bowl, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Not only stealing, but also learning to lie?" Lu Tinglan put down the bowl, and took advantage of the opportunity to grab Han Ziqi's hand, "Do you want to learn how to smoke badly?"

Han Ziqi was startled by the opponent's sudden movement, and the bowl in his hand almost fell from his palm.

Fortunately, the palm wrapped in foam was slippery, Han Ziqi spun hard, and quickly broke free from Lu Tinglan's grasp.

However, the tension brought by skin contact did not decrease by half with the withdrawal of the hand.

"I don't want to smoke." Han Ziqi accepted his fate, knowing that he would never be able to hide it from him.

"Then what are you doing with it?" Lu Tinglan still questioned.

"Smoking is bad for your health."

"So?" Lu Tinglan calmed down.

Han Ziqi lowered his head vigorously, cleaning the last soup bowl.This bowl was used by Lu Tinglan just now, it happened to be different from the others, "I confiscated it."

Lu Tinglan washed his hands and turned to look at him, "So you care about me?"

Han Ziqi was too lazy to explain, and he didn't want to talk to him more.He turned on the tap and was about to rinse the last bowl.

"But you confiscated a pack, and I can still buy a box of ten or even a hundred boxes, which doesn't fundamentally solve the problem." Lu Tinglan smiled lightly, "How about I give you an idea?"

Han Ziqi didn't reply, but he really wanted to hear, so he raised his jaw and looked at him.

Lu Tinglan pointed to her cheek, "Here, kiss me, I promise, I won't smoke again."

Han Ziqi avoided Lu Tinglan's gaze and sneaked a glance at the living room.His brother was sitting on the couch watching Super Flash, his eyes on the TV.

Sister Shan sat next to his brother and helped him peel the hazelnuts, and then stuffed them into his mouth one by one.

The two people in the living room didn't notice the two people in the kitchen at all.

In just one second, Han Ziqi quickly came back to his senses, and the heat from the tip of his heart spread out from the roots of his ears.

The person standing directly opposite him was smiling happily.

"Crazy!" Han Ziqi didn't care to put the last bowl back on the table, and hurried away with a blushing face, shut himself in the bathroom, and locked the door behind him.

He leaned against the door and squatted on the ground, burying his hot face in it.

He led him into the ditch again.

annoying.

Until Chang Shan knocked on the bathroom door, "Ziqi, Mr. Lu is leaving, won't you see him off?"

"No." Han Ziqi still pressed himself between his knees, and his voice was muffled.

"Ziqi, you can't be so rude." Although Chang Shan's tone was not reproachful, it was persuading, "You've been inside for more than 20 minutes."

"It's okay." Lu Tinglan's voice came through the door, "I made him unhappy just now, and he will come out after I leave."

"Slow down on the road."

"Ah."

Lu Tinglan opened the door, and Han Ziqi on the other side just came out, took off the coat hanging on the hanger, and did not look at Lu Tinglan the whole time, "Let's go, I'll see you off."

After Lu Tinglan bid farewell to Han Sijun and Chang Shan, the two walked into the elevator side by side.

After dinner, there were only the two of them in the elevator.

This house was also specially arranged by Lu Tinglan. In order to take into account the convenience of Chang Shan, Lu Tinglan chose a surrounding area closer to the hospital.

The residential area is the best and safest high-end residential area nearby. The elevators are surrounded by reflective glass walls, which are cleaned spotlessly by the cleaning staff.

Even without turning your head, you can see who you want to see through the glass in any direction.

The floors they live in are high and the elevators run for a long time.After a while of silence between each other, Lu Tinglan said, "Sorry, I made too much of a joke just now and made you unhappy."

Han Ziqi remained silent as usual.

"I confess, I did smoke for a while when I was stressed, but if you don't like it, I won't smoke again in the future."

Han Ziqi lowered his head, his mouth was hard and his heart soft, "What does it have to do with me?"

"So, don't be angry, okay?" Lu Tinglan tilted his head slightly to see Han Ziqi's downcast expression.

Han Ziqi held his fingertips in his trouser pockets and subconsciously rubbed them back and forth, "I'm not that stingy."

Lu Tinglan laughed softly, "Okay, it's fine not to get angry."

Perhaps out of habit, Lu Tinglan raised his hand and was about to rub Han Ziqi's hair.

But he paused the moment he touched the tip of the hair, then silently withdrew his hand, and turned around, as if nothing had happened.

When the elevator reached the first floor, Lu Tinglan said, "I'm leaving, it's windy outside, don't come out."

Lu Tinglan helped him press the elevator on the 31st floor, and then stood outside the elevator and waved to him, "Bye, see you another day."

Han Ziqi didn't say a word until the elevator door closed again.

With the speed of the elevator rising, Han Ziqi quickly pressed the nearest floor, he got out of the elevator, went to the public terrace on each floor, and looked out.

The sunset glow at 08:30 in the evening dyed Lu Tinglan's black car a warm color, and it gradually drifted away in the direction of the setting sun until it completely disappeared from Han Ziqi's sight.

Han Ziqi gave up watching.

He pursed his lips.

Who wants to see you another day.

annoying.

Graduation season can't escape all kinds of parties. Han Ziqi spent three years completing four years of college courses, and none of his classmates graduated yet.

But escaped from the party among classmates, but failed to avoid Yang Xi's invitation.

At 07:30 in the evening, according to the address, Han Ziqi came to Yang Xi's invitation place, which was a bar for college students outside the school.

"Hey, why is it only you?" Yang Xi leaned against the bar, "Didn't I ask you to invite friends to come?"

"Do I have any friends here, you don't know?"

Yang Xi took a glass of low-alcohol champagne and handed it to him, "Isn't there Mr. Lu? Why didn't you invite him?"

Han Ziqi took the champagne, he took a sip, it tasted like oranges and strawberries, "Why should I invite him?"

"No way, it's been almost half a month, and you two haven't reconciled yet?" Yang Xi took a sip of beer, "Don't do domestic business that costs tens of millions, and come all the way to chase you , there is no progress at all."

"This Mr. Lu seems to only be able to do business." Yang Xi thought of something, "Oh yes, he is still suitable for the limelight. Up to now, his photo is still on the Honor Roll of Massachusetts."

"Brother Yang Xi, your joke is boring." Han Ziqi planned to continue playing stupid.

"It seems that you haven't planned to forgive him so early." Yang Xi poured down half a glass of beer, "In that case, why don't you call him here, there are so many handsome men and beauties here, and let him see them, even if you are a few thousand The United States, which is kilometers away, is still so popular, wouldn't it be more exciting to stimulate him?"

"Why do you have the same problem with Sister Ran?" Thinking that the champagne tasted good, Han Ziqi took another glass.

"Then you are really right, this idea was arranged by her." Tired of standing, Yang Xi pulled out the high stool from the bar and sat down.

Han Ziqi smiled helplessly, "Why is Miss Ran still like this?"

"Be considerate of her. It's been three years and you refused to contact her. She was worried about you and could only harass me all day long. Ever since she found out that Lu Tinglan was coming to the United States, she wished she could call me [-] times a day and put those strange The theory was instilled in me."

"But have you done it?" At least from Han Ziqi's point of view, Yang Xi has been on his side most of the time so far, and even has a vague hostility towards Lu Tinglan.

"Do you think I did it?" Yang Xi clicked her tongue, "It's up to her what she says, but what I do depends on whether I like it or not."

"Thank you." Han Ziqi said.

"Thanks for what?"

"Thank you for standing by my side."

Yang Xi couldn't help laughing, and opened another bottle of beer to drink, "Don't be in a hurry to thank me, I'm just for myself."

"You yourself?" Han Ziqi was at a loss.

"Oh my God, boys, it's such a disappointment that you're here drinking tonight when you're having fun together." Goldilocks came up, "Come on baby, everyone's waiting for you, go dance! "

"Let's go?" Yang Xi pointed to the dance floor not far away, "I'm graduating soon, and I have to experience a different life."

Although Han Ziqi, who was not good at dancing, seemed out of place, he also took a step towards a better direction during his graduation period.

Tired from dancing, Han Ziqi was taken to drink again.

Yang Xi just answered the phone and came back, only to see that Han Ziqi was so drunk that he fell unconscious on the soft sofa.

Han Ziqi leaned to one side, the rotating light from the bar hit his white T-shirt and reflected it on his eye-catching face.

The exciting facial features end in his constantly calling words.

The noisy background sound from the bar covered what he said. Yang Xi seemed unable to hear it, but knew everything clearly.

Because of those words, he had heard them countless times during these three years.

If you know that you will never win a game before it has started, what reason is there to persist in deceiving yourself.

Yang Xi took out his mobile phone and dialed an unfamiliar number.

"Lu Tinglan?"

"Which one?" The other party's voice was calm and extremely cautious.

"Yang Xi, do you still remember?"

"What's the matter?" Obviously Lu Tinglan didn't have a good impression of him, and he wouldn't give him more enthusiastic feedback.

"Han Ziqi is drunk, do you want to come over?"

The author has something to say: drunk yyds! ! !

There is one more update today, I will post it as soon as I finish repairing it, eh?
