evening.

The back door of Xie's company.

Xie Xingzhi didn't want to watch a movie and attract the attention of others, and his legs could barely walk in the past two days, so he didn't bring a wheelchair.

And Xie Anheng insisted on taking him to a small supermarket first, Xie Xingzhi was inconvenient to go shopping, so he sat on a chair near the cashier and waited for him.

When it was time to get off work, there were many people in the supermarket.

Xie Xingzhi put one hand on the table and lowered his head to confirm the movie seat number.

Xie Anheng stood in line at the cash register to pay.

"That man is so handsome."

"Which one? Oh I see, wow..."

Xie Xingzhi moved his ears.

The supermarket was already noisy because there were so many people, but the chattering voices behind them got a lot louder when they got excited.

"Hurry up, aren't you the bravest? Go up and ask for a contact information. Even if you can't make it, you can still benefit the sisters."

"Screw you!"

"..." Xie Xingzhi raised his eyebrows, and he knew who they were discussing without guessing.

He glanced at the queue, and sure enough, Xie Anheng's height and appearance advantage made him stand out from the crowd.

With just one glance, Xie Anheng immediately caught it accurately, turned his head and smiled at him, and even winked his eyes.

"Ah, he's looking over here, he's smiling at you, I think it's funny, are you really not rushing?"

"I...he is really smiling at me? How do I feel..."

The girl behind moved a little, and Xie Xingzhi felt her eyes fall on him.

After half a second, she lowered her voice and whispered to her companion: "He is clearly smiling at the man behind me, okay?"

"The one behind me looks handsome from the back and profile, please take a picture for me, it's not convenient for me..."

Companion: "What are you talking about? Why are you making such a low voice all of a sudden? I can't hear you louder."

"..."

Before they finished discussing and took out their mobile phones to take pictures of Xie Xingzhi, Xie Anheng came over with two bags.

Xie Xingzhi didn't expect him to be so particular about watching a movie, so he laughed and said, "What did you buy?"

Xie Anheng didn't answer, glanced at the table next to him, seemed to have noticed something, stood between Xie Xingzhi and the two of them on purpose, and then opened the bag: "I'm afraid you will be thirsty for your favorite drink, and there are a few snacks , I also bought your favorite candy."

He doesn't watch many movies, but it seems that he enjoys eating and drinking water halfway through watching a lot more than just watching.

Xie Xingzhi nodded in satisfaction: "Then let's go, let's take a taxi."

"Don't let the driver take us..." After Xie Anheng finished speaking, he also realized that strictly speaking, they sneaked out to watch movies during working hours, and he still had some unique thoughts in his heart, so he didn't want to make a big fuss.

He then said, "I can drive."

"Don't be so troublesome, you still need to find a place to park your car." Xie Xingzhi stood up.

Xie Anheng hurriedly held his arm to support him.

After the two left, the girl at the table who had been shrinking her head behind her breathed a sigh of relief.

The girl patted her chest: "I'll go, luckily I didn't ask for your contact information, this man's aura is so strong, I feel like he could freeze me to death just by looking at him."

After she finished speaking, she found that the companion in front of her had a strange look on her face, and her excitement was mixed with happiness.

"?"

"What's wrong with you? What kind of expression is this?"

"Didn't you see it?"

"See what?"

The companion gave her an angry look: "They are a couple!"

"Huh?... You say that, it seems to be the same. Oh, so the man who just bought something was smiling at him?"

"Definitely."

"Tsk. Smiling so sweetly with his partner, looking at other people's eyes as if he owes him 800 million, walking over like he deliberately blocked us from seeing his partner? Absolutely."

"I think you're right about one thing."

"What?"

"Fortunately, I didn't ask for the contact information, otherwise it would be embarrassing."

……

Xie Anheng helped Xie Xingzhi into the back seat of the car: "Go to STV Studios."

"Not going there." Xie Xingzhi said.

Xie Anheng: "What?"

"Go to another one." Xie Xingzhi pointed in a familiar direction, "Go to Yongxie Studios in the old city."

Yongxie Cinema is the oldest cinema in Manbei City. Ten years ago, it was considered a bustling central business district.

Since the CBD was built, the popularity of the old city has faded a lot and gradually declined.

This movie theater is still built on the upper floor of the shopping mall. Looking at it today, this shopping mall building is not as good as the new city, it is old and dilapidated.

However, the venue is not big, but there are many people, and the internal environment is well organized and clean.

"This is the theater where I went to watch a movie for the first time." After getting off the car, Xie Xingzhi went to the machine to get a ticket, and Xie Anheng helped him walk slowly.

Hearing him talk about his past for the first time, Xie Anheng became interested: "Was it when I was a child?"

Xie Xingzhi nodded: "Yes."

They were delayed in shopping, and Xie Xingzhi walked very slowly because of his legs and feet. After checking the tickets, the movie had already started.

Xie Anheng and he groped in the dark to find a seat and sat down.

Fortunately, the two-person seat they bought leaned against the other side of the wall alone, so there was no need to bother others to let them in and find seats one by one.

"This movie theater has been built for decades." Xie Xingzhi opened up the conversation immediately when he entered the familiar environment, "But I guess it won't last long. The old city renovation has demolished the shantytowns, and this should be the next step." side."

He said with a sigh.

Xie Anheng didn't want to see him come out to play with a sad face, so he quickly turned the topic to happy things: "You just said that you came here to watch the first movie, when was that?"

"Strictly speaking, it's not my childhood." Xie Xingzhi smiled, "I was in high school at that time."

The middle school closest to the cinema is the one Xie Anheng attended before transferring.

In the last life, no one took Xie Xingzhi to transfer to the best No. [-] Middle School. He spent his entire high school career in the high school section of No. [-] Middle School.

The relationship between the two has reached the current state, and Xie Xingzhi has no intention of hiding some of his experiences from Xie Anheng.

"It was a movie that the school organized for us to watch together. I still remember it. It tells a story about a poor kid working hard to repay his parents. It's very touching."

It's just that for him, such emotions can't be empathized with.

His eyelashes drooped, as if immersed in memories.

There was a sudden warmth on the back of his hand.

Xie Xingzhi came back to his senses, causing Xie Anheng to hold his right hand.

"If you're sad, forget about it."

Xie Xingzhi said dumbly: "Not sad."

Things have passed so long, and he has lived in two lifetimes. Now he recalls the events of his previous life like a mirror image, without much sense of reality.

"It's here that I experienced for the first time what it's like to come to the cinema. How could I have thought so much at that time? I was so excited just about this." He said, "So I want to bring you here today. "

Xie Xingzhi didn't finish the rest, but Xie Anheng understood.

It was here that Xie Xingzhi felt the joy of watching movies for the first time, so I brought him here today, revisited the old place, shared his experience with him, and shared such joy.

While they were talking, the warm-up commercial in front ended, all the lights were completely extinguished, and the movie officially started.

But neither of them was paying attention to the curtain.

"I like this place very much." Xie Anheng held his hand even tighter.

Xie Xingzhi raised his eyebrows: "I thought you wouldn't like it. This place is broken and small. I used to take you to the stv studio you mentioned."

"I just think that one is closer." Xie Anheng glanced at his legs, "You don't want to sit in a wheelchair, I'm afraid that the bumps will hurt your legs."

In order to make up for all his childhood shortcomings, Xie Xingzhi naturally took Xie Anheng to the cinema many times when he was young.

But they always choose a good place to go, either to go to the new cinema in the CBD, or to find a small private cinema near where they live and directly book a single room.

Xie Anheng went to movie theaters with luxurious decoration and huge venues when he was a child. Xie Xingzhi was not willing to bring him to such a place, and of course he never heard these stories from him.

"It's not broken here, but the equipment is a bit old. If there is a project in this area in the later reconstruction of the old city, and it is renovated again, it may not be able to compete with other movie theaters."

Xie Anheng said suddenly.

"I want to go to such a far place so soon?" Xie Xingzhi laughed, "It's just that I never saw these things when I was young, and the more I can't get them, the more precious they are."

"With that time when the school organized us to watch movies, I would secretly come over every time after school and holidays. Even if I couldn't go in, I would be satisfied to stand outside and listen to it."

After he finished speaking, Xie Anheng handed over a fruit candy in front of him.

The light on the screen was reflected on the latter's side face, and Xie Xingzhi could clearly see his distress: "When the time comes, I will buy this place and build it into a cinema that belongs only to you."

Xie Xingzhi had sugar in his mouth, and the sweet fruity taste was as greasy as his words: "It's too wasteful to build a private cinema in such a good location."

He is no longer the miserable child he was at the beginning, he can watch movies as he wants, even if he doesn't go to the cinema, he can enjoy them on his own projector.

"Don't waste it." As a result, Xie Anheng suddenly sat up straight and looked at him seriously, "I want to give it to you, and what I gave it to you, no matter what it is, can't be called a waste."

Xie Xingzhi was stunned.

The scenes in the movie seemed to be entering the exciting part, the background music suddenly increased, and the rapid rhythm disturbed his thoughts.

Xie Xingzhi's lips moved, but he still leaned back in the chair, without saying a word, and he didn't even realize that Xie Anheng had changed his handshake posture and interlocked his fingers.

After a long while, he suddenly tilted his head towards Xie Anheng's side, and the two of them happened to be leaning against each other.

The lights and shadows flickered on the curtain, and Xie Xingzhi didn't care to watch.

He lowered his eyes, and after a long time, he said without beginning or end: "The biggest mistake I've ever done in my life... Maybe it's just being too self-righteous."

Xie Anheng listened quietly.

"If I hadn't been so stubborn back then, and had known you better..." He sighed lowly, "I wouldn't have experienced so many bad things."

But in fact, it's not just him, Xie Anheng didn't fully trust him at the beginning.

"I was also wrong. I used to swear so much that I would protect you, but in the end I made a mess of things."

"Have a good time watching a movie during the festival, how come it has become a confession meeting." Xie Xingzhi lowered his head slightly, and the two hair tips rubbed each other, making a small sound, which made people's ears itchy.

Under his influence, Xie Anheng has grown into a completely different individual, but when it comes to details, this stubborn temperament is still the same.

Xie Anheng whispered: "I just want to be alone with you for a while, it doesn't matter if I watch a movie or not."

The background music covered his words, Xie Xingzhi raised his eyes: "What did you just say?"

"It's nothing." Xie Anheng scratched his palm gently, "I'm very happy that you are willing to share this with me today."

He frowned.

"In the future, if you have anything you want to talk about, you can talk to me about anything, and I'm willing to listen."

As long as Xie Xingzhi talks to him, even if he sits and listens quietly for a whole day, he will not feel bored or tired.

Xie Xingzhi's heart burned.

He blinked a few times quickly, pressing back the sudden inexplicable emotion just now, and forced himself to turn his attention back to the curtain in front of him.

I missed most of the movie, and I don't know what to watch when I watch it again.

Seeing him watching the movie seriously, Xie Anheng didn't disturb him anymore, but still silently tilted his head, focusing on admiring the people around him.

Maybe it was because the heater in the theater was turned on too high, or maybe the space was too small, Xie Xingzhi just felt that this time holding hands, the palms of the two of them were hotter than ever before, and even sweated.

It was early morning when the movie ended.

But the festive atmosphere obviously made everyone feel at ease. The aisles and theaters were filled with the voices of the audience discussing the plot and laughing.

The hands of the two people were still holding each other, until the audience in front gradually finished and the staff who cleared the venue approached them, Xie Anheng stood up and turned to help Xie Xingzhi.

"Huh?" Suddenly there was an exclamation from behind, "Brother Xingzhi, Xie Anheng? You two are going to watch the movie too!"

Like lightning, Xie Xingzhi retracted his hand.

Cen Xiangyang ran over from the back row, his face full of surprise: "This is too coincidental, I would have sat down with you if I knew it earlier, why didn't you tell me, Brother Xingzhi, I didn't know that you would also Come watch a movie."

Xie Xingzhi coughed lightly, and stood up with Xie Anheng's help: "It was decided temporarily, and the movie had already started when we came."

"Oh, so, that's why I didn't notice you." Cen Xiangyang scratched his head and wanted to say something, but the expressions of the two people standing in front of him and behind him changed for a while.

Zhao Zhiyin and Xie Anheng looked at each other, and received the subtext in the latter's gaze telling him to take the person away quickly.

"Clear the field, let's go out first, don't talk here."

Cen Xiangyang was interrupted by him, and finally remembered that he brought a companion, and turned his head while walking forward: "You haven't told me why you don't like mermaids, I obviously think that mermaid is very handsome."

Zhao Zhiyin stood between him and the two people behind, seemingly urging him to quicken his pace, drooping his eyes: "Handsome? He has scales all over his face, and he can bite your head off with one mouth, so what's so handsome. "

"You fart, people obviously only have scales on the side of their ears, and they are handsome if they are strong in combat, okay?"

Xie Xingzhi was held by Xie Anheng, so he couldn't walk too fast, and gradually distanced himself from them.

For the last movie, the merchants saved money, and the lights were not turned on in the small passageway leaving the scene, only the front warning sign marked the direction.

In the darkness, Xie Xingzhi felt the warmth on the back of his hand again, and he only held it lightly, as if testing his attitude.

He has a physical meal.

A few seconds later, he loosened his clenched fingers, turned his palm over and tried to hold it back.

The two of them didn't speak, the surroundings were noisy, and they seemed to be extremely quiet between each other.

The moment the palms were about to meet, the person walking in front suddenly turned back: "Brother Xing! You come to judge!"

Xie Xingzhi: "..."

He silently let go of his hand, and there was a sense of helplessness in his voice that he didn't realize: "What's the reason for the comment?"

"Zhao Zhiyin insisted on saying that the mermaid was not good-looking, but when I asked him who was the most handsome, he actually said it was that black and stinky sea monster! That thing is full of tentacles, and you can't even see its face clearly. How can it compare to a mermaid?"

Cen Xiangyang was filled with righteous indignation.

"Brother Xingzhi, tell me, which one is more handsome, the mermaid or the stinky sea monster?"

There are other audiences around the movie who are also excitedly discussing the plot and characters, and the conversation is endless.

Xie Xingzhi: "..."

But after recalling it for a while, he found that he didn't even know what the movie was about, let alone what the character looked like.

So he could only smile perfunctorily: "I also think mermaids are more handsome."

"Let me just say it?" Satisfied, Cen Xiangyang smiled triumphantly at Zhao Zhiyin, finally willing to let the two of them go.

Zhao Zhiyin is neither salty nor dull: "No matter how handsome a mermaid is, they will only fall in love with other mermaids. The species are different. You should forget about the love stories like those in the movies."

"You... Who the hell is thinking about a love story?" Cen Xiangyang was annoyed again.

"Wow, it's snowing!" After finally walking out of the small passage, Cen Xiangyang raised his head.

But when he turned his head, he found that Xie Anheng, the root of Xie Xingzhi who was still behind the two of them just now, had disappeared.

"Where is the person? Wasn't he still there just now..."

I'm going to look for it.

Zhao Zhiyin put his hands in his pockets, stretched out his long legs to stop him: "Don't you think that your current behavior is very similar to a household appliance?"

Cen Xiangyang: "?"

Zhao Zhiyin sneered at him: "Light bulb."

Cen Xiangyang: "???"

The two people in the mouth of the giant light bulb did not go far, even in the alley around the corner.

The good world of the two of them was disturbed, Xie Anheng endured and endured, and finally he couldn't bear it.

"He's so annoying." He held Xie Xingzhi in his arms. The two grown men were a bit reluctant in such a narrow alley, so they could only hug each other tightly.

But surprisingly, Xie Xingzhi didn't refute, let alone struggle: "I didn't know they would watch this movie too."

The voice is soft, even comforting.

The little fire in Xie Anheng's heart went out instantly, and he let out a soft "hmm".

The alley is not deep, but narrow and dark.

The nearest street lamp can only see through a faint halo, and they can only feel the heat from each other's skin, but they can't see it clearly.

The hustle and bustle of the movie has not completely dissipated. Many people in the alley took pictures in the snow, most of them were couples.

In the quiet alley, Xie Anheng slowly let go of the person in his arms.

He took off the scarf around his neck and wrapped it around Xie Xingzhi's head to shield him from the wind and snow.

Then say, "I brought you a present for Christmas."

Xie Xing was taken aback.

Speaking of it, he wanted to prepare to take Xie Anheng for Christmas, but he himself was empty-handed, and he didn't even buy the most important Christmas present.

Xie Anheng reached into the inner pocket of his clothes, took out a small velvet box, and handed it to his palm.

The small square gift box, the size of a palm, is heavy, and it still carries Xie Anheng's body temperature.

This look made Xie Xingzhi frowned: "What is it?"

"Open it and take a look?" Xie Anheng held the back of his hand, his eyes were focused, and he couldn't hide his expectation.

It was only for a moment that Xie Xingzhi suppressed the strange thought that had arisen in his heart.

He lifted the lid.

It's a pair of sapphire cufflinks.

The shape is almost restored to the pair when they first met, the difference is the workmanship and materials, this time it is a real unburned sapphire, much larger than the original pair of small gifts, still in the deep alley Has a light sheen.

"In the past, you prepared gifts for me at Christmas." He said in Xie Xingzhi's ear, "I want to start this year, and every year in the future, I will be the one who will give you gifts."

"This is a commemoration of our meeting. I've always wanted to see you wear it again, but the previous pair was made of plastic, and I didn't have a chance to use it in the future, so I asked someone to customize this one."

Xie Anheng has always cherished this pair of cufflinks, he knows it.

In the old Xia family house, when sneaking into the study room, apart from Xia's original antiques in the glass showcase, only the pair of plastic cufflinks were placed, and the door was covered with finger marks.

But Xie Xingzhi knows better that what he cherishes is not objects.

It was the one who wore the cufflinks in the first place.

In the year when the two had the deepest misunderstanding, it was also such a small thing that made Xie Anheng think about others when he saw things.

The person in front of him looked outstanding, he was the elite of Manbei City and even the entire business world. He was not ignorant of what other people said about Xie Anheng. He was indifferent, unhuman, and ambitious... There were not many good words to say.

But in fact, he is more delicate than anyone else, but this delicateness is only limited to his feelings for him.

Xie Anheng cherishes photos, letters, gifts, and even his handwritten notes and notes, and keeps them well.

Xie Xingzhi just looked at him like this, and didn't speak for a long time.

He was silent, and Xie Anheng couldn't help but start to feel uneasy: "Do you not like it very much..."

That's right, Xie Xingzhi has no shortage of cufflinks, and this style doesn't seem to be new. I've seen it for many years, and I'm afraid I'm tired of it.

"I'll give this to you first, and I'll prepare another one for you when I go back. I—"

The cautious voice stopped abruptly, and Xie Anheng's eyes suddenly widened.

The tip of the nose feels slightly cool and soft.

fleeting.

Xie Xingzhi backed away, feeling a little embarrassed, avoiding the other party's fiery eyes: "It's too dark here..."

I tried to kiss him in a flash of enthusiasm, but unexpectedly, the kiss was crooked, and I kissed him on the nose.

"Well!"

In the next second, the back of his head was tightly clasped, and he retreated less than half a palm before pulling him back again.

Xie Anheng's lips were still a little dry with the coolness from the wind and snow.

The strength of the imprint was very light, but he could feel that the other party was exerting extreme restraint. The hands on his shoulders and the back of his head were completely opposite, so hard that they trembled.

Xie Xingzhi froze for half a second.

Finally, she reacted and embraced him, relaxed her lips, closed her eyelids, and didn't know what to do, so she could only try to lick Xie Anheng's lips.

Xie Anheng stopped.

He slightly opened his eyelids, and his eyes were instantly deeper than the night.

The camouflage of recent days was completely broken by this gentle response.

The gentle licking suddenly became fierce.

Xie Xingzhi's whole body was completely pressed against the blue brick wall behind him, and he had to raise his neck slightly.

"Brother Xingzhi, where did they go? If they can't find me, I want to leave first. It's so cold."

Cen Xiangyang's voice was accompanied by the cold wind, and the sound of each other's broken gasps reached his ears.

"Try calling?" Zhao Zhiyin suggested.

The phone in his pocket vibrated immediately.

Xie Xingzhi let go of his hand and reached into his pocket.

Xie Anheng also immediately squeezed his hands in through the gap, and the hands of the two of them were stuck in the small pockets and could not move.

"Don't pay attention to him." Xie Anheng said aggrievedly in a low voice.

Normally, this act of pretending to be obedient made his scalp tingle, but at this moment it made Xie Xingzhi feel inexplicably happy.

He smiled, and pressed and held the power button in his pocket to turn off the phone directly, and the buzzing phone quieted down.

"Fine. Ignore him."

The snow became bigger and fluttered, dancing all over the sky.

The voices and movements in the alley were still noisy.

There are the screams of children playing, and the laughter of couples cuddling each other to keep warm.

The night bus was late, and the door opened at the stop, taking away the excitement.

In the darkness deep in the alley, Xie Xingzhi stretched out his right hand, which was not held by him, and gently penetrated into Xie Anheng's soft hair, slowly caressing it.

The sound of cars gradually faded away, and the whole neighborhood became quiet.

During the kiss, cold snowflakes fell on Xie Anheng's hair.Xie Xingzhi gently brushed them away.
