strayed into the world

staircase.

Quan Ce stopped in his tracks, looking at the confinement room at the end...

Is there someone inside who is sleeping restlessly as usual...

He can't sleep deeply, and is often awakened by nightmares...

Now, would he still be in that room?

Shaking his head, it's impossible.

Quan Ce turned and walked towards his bedroom.

Standing in front of the bedroom door, he stopped... Suddenly, he felt that opening the door was such a labor-intensive task.He began to doubt whether he could bear the huge emptiness after pushing the door open, okay.He had to bear it.

He reached out and twisted the door valve, and stepped in.The moment his whole body fell into the room, he stopped breathing——

Is it because I am too tired to hallucinate? ... The man who had been searching all night was sleeping on his bed without incident, curled up into a small ball with the Winnie the Pooh in his arms, and he was even wearing his daytime clothes.Hallucination... Quan Ce didn't dare to blink, and approached that figure.

***

The lights are dim, and the night is hazy, cast on the layer of swift white like floating frost, dreamy and illusory.

Is it hallucination? ... If it is an illusion, why is it so real.The ups and downs of the shoulders pulled his heartbeat, making him uneasy, worrying about gains and losses... Reaching out his hand to touch it, the cool body temperature made him nostalgic so much.

Looking down at the cheeks that were mostly covered by the hair, the fingers moved from the shoulders to the bottom of the eyes, and the moisture immediately stained the fingers.It surprised him—it was him, the boy he knew.

Only he cries in his dreams.

Quan Ce was sure it was real, it was him, he hadn't disappeared, he was right in front of his eyes, sleeping on his bed as peaceful as a baby.

How much he wanted to hug him tightly, at this very moment.

How much he wanted to kiss him, at this very moment.

How much he wanted to rub him into his body, so that he would not let him search hard again... Blinking his eyes, the bitterness in the corner of his mouth seeped into his mouth... He was moved, by this Christmas.

At this time, Chen stood by the door and looked at the scene inside, and said softly,

"Master. I just want to tell you that he is back."

...Still staring at his face, as if he would disappear if he moved away, "When."

"An hour ago." Chen thought about the situation at that time, and when she saw him appearing in front of her, she was startled. His whole body was covered with snow, and his face was as white as snow, frighteningly white.Only the dark eyes are still clear.I don't know how long he walked outside to get here, his hands have changed from red to ginger white.She told him to take a hot bath quickly, but he walked into Quan Ce's room without listening, and then locked himself in it and never came out again.

Until Quan Ce comes back.

An hour ago, he was still in the city.No wonder I didn't see him...

Quan Ce moved the corner of his mouth and told Chen, "Go and call Xu Chi Xiao Nai and tell him that he is back."

"Okay." Chen said and went out to make a phone call.

Leaving Quan Ce behind, silently covered him with a quilt, tucked the corners of the quilt and wrapped him like a rice dumpling.Seeing how tired he is, he didn't respond to touching him like this, and fell asleep deeply, but the tears continued to flow from his eyes... bowed his head and kissed off the liquid, loving, tender, and meticulous.

"Welcome back."

She stretched her arms around him, turning sideways to avoid the weight of her body on him.

I take my words back, Santa, and I believe you, this time.And every day after...

***

It snowed all night.Ningdu was wrapped in silver overnight.

The six-petalled snowflakes are still falling, silently and forbearably hitting the wall, tragically as if committing suicide, and then scattered in the air and faded away...

It doesn't look like this first snow will stop anytime soon.

Open the curtain a little, and the coldness through the glass immediately spreads to the fingertips.Withdrawing his hand, he got back under the quilt and supported his head with one hand, admiring the sleeping face beside him.

He thought that he would never see this face again. Seeing his cute eyelashes fluttering slightly, and his slightly parted lips were beautifully curved, plump and dry, which made people want to moisten him.

Yes, he admitted, he was so delicate and charming, so beautiful that he couldn't bear to look sideways.

He began to imagine what his reaction would be when he opened his eyes and saw himself...whether he would stare with a pair of eyes in surprise and bewildered.Quan Ce guessed that at this time, the phone kept vibrating... ignore it.

The news must have reached the Kim family in the United States by this time.Quan Qing's sad look at the end was too vague to remember, and Quan Ce's mood has never been so relaxed.

"Ce..." At this moment, the small voice made him pay attention.is he awake? ...He was looking forward to what he would look like when he woke up just now...

No, he hasn't woken up yet.Although he murmured his name in his mouth, the closed eyes were still unwilling to open. "Policy,……"

He even calls his own name in his dreams, huh... Seeing that cute eyebrows frown, did he make him uneasy again in the dream? ... caressing his cheek, "I am, I am..."

Accompanied by his voice, Quan Ce saw that the eyebrows calmed down a lot, and then a few seconds later, the eyelids moved, and there was a tendency to open them. He didn't intend to take back his hands... Waiting for the first time after he opened his eyes to see Own.

"Hmm." With a slight twitch of her brows, Quan Ce felt that all these subtle gestures were seductive.And it is impossible for him to know such a charm.

Appreciating every detail of his opening his eyes, even the trembling of his eyelashes, watching those dark eyes appear, with his image projected inside... one second, two seconds, three seconds... time and him still……

Suddenly, he burst into tears like a child, and the tears broke again, swarming out, soaking the corners of his eyes and blooming transparent lotus flowers on the pillow, which made Quan Ce's heart rippling and painful.Panic.

"What's wrong? I scared you! Why are you crying!" Quan Ce panicked, and he gave him another surprise.Unexpectedly, he was neither surprised nor delighted, he just cried, cried loudly, cried hysterically.Crying loudly and no longer suppressed as if to vent.

"Did I scare you? Or are you uncomfortable? Do you want me to call Xu Chi... Don't cry, don't cry..." With a tone of coaxing a child, he wiped those crystal clear tears with his thumb.Infinitely spoiled, but also extremely worried.So that it is a bit clumsy.

The violent sobbing made him choked up, he coughed and wanted to speak again, his shoulders trembled and his heart ached, and he had never seen him cry so sadly when he was engaged before.Picking him up, rubbing him into your arms, patting his back,

"Be obedient, don't cry."

Then I heard him muffled and intermittent sentences in his arms, "I, I, thought that I would never see you again..."

"No, didn't you see me? I'm right here and I'm not going anywhere."

"I've walked so many, so many streets, I can't remember the way back, I, I only remember, I only remember this place....Ahem!"

Rubbing his back up and down to help him calm down, Quan Ce felt his eyes wet, "It's okay, you are back, you found your way back by yourself. You are very brave."

Climbing up his back with both hands and holding on to his clothes tightly, he murmured hoarsely, "I'm not brave at all, I'm so scared, I can't see you. If I can't see you, what should I do? ...I don't want anything, I just want to see you every day..."

No, Quan Ce wants to say, he also hopes to see him every day, it hurts as much as he wants to see him, and he is so scared when he is gone, so scared that he almost dare not enter the room.They are so similar, similar fear of never seeing each other again.

"No, I swear, I will never scare you again..." Because on Christmas Day, there was really nothing to worry about between them...

"You can see me every day, whenever you want, okay? As long as you want."

"kindness……"

……

Outside the door at this time.

"Don't bother them for now." It was Xu Chi who spoke.After closing the door, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"En." It was Xiao Nai who nodded.

Ah... this winter doesn't seem to be as cold as I imagined...
