immature

The first thing Zhong Qin did when he opened the door was not to appease the screaming Corgi, but to take the remote control from the desk at the front desk, turn on the air conditioner, and turn on the hot water.

Xi Yan sniffed after him, squatted down and got together with the puppies.

But Zhong Qin seldom sees Xi Yan playing with the son of a dog while playing sullenly and not in high spirits—the last time was when he came back from "You Gui".

The corgis were unable to be patted by Zhong Qin, so they surrounded Xi Yan.

Where does Xi Yan usually get this kind of treatment?But he still couldn't be happy in his heart.

He rubbed the dog's head twice, then stood up and walked in with downcast eyes. When he passed by Zhong Qin, he whispered: "...well, I'll go up to see the cream."

Zhong Qin looked at his drooping eyelashes, and raised his hand to hold his wrist.

"Drink something hot before going." Zhong Qin said.

Xi Yan, who has always advertised himself as a person who loves drinking hot water, hesitated for a moment, but stopped.

Tang Xi didn't see anyone else, so she found a comfortable booth and sat down.The drunk obviously only had a sliver of reason left to maintain his image and make himself look decent, but he still didn't forget to be a bad-hearted person and make fun of others: "Little classmate is going to live here tonight? Ah Qin, where should I sleep?"

Xi Yan tasted the meaning of these words, and immediately pursed his lips.

Tang Xi called "Aqin" more fluently than him, so he should be the one who can sleep with Zhong Qin.

Xi Yan suddenly felt depressed, and did not make eye contact with Zhong Qin: "...Did I come at the wrong time? Forget it, I'll go home."

After saying this, Xi Yan turned around, raised his foot and wanted to go out again.

Zhong Qin held Xi Yan's wrist tightly, looked towards Xi Yan's eyes, and decided to say for Xi Yan: "Stay here."

Xi Yan shook his arms unnaturally, but felt very strange in his heart, as if there was a voice saying that he hoped Zhong Qin would not let go of his hand.

Zhong Qin didn't let go.

Because Zhong Qin knew that although Xi Yan always fights with a group of young classmates and has a very powerful mouth that can speak well, Xi Yan never really picks up troubles with others.

Zhong Qin also knew that Xi Yan was actually much more mature than the childish appearance he occasionally showed.

As for why he put on such an inexplicable dog temper as soon as he came in front of him... Sometimes he was so obedient that he would follow him wherever he went, but now he didn't want to stay honestly by his side.

——Zhong Qin may have touched some clues, but he is reluctant to pierce them, and he is also reluctant to let go.

The depression in Xi Yan's heart suddenly became less, and Zhong Qin's action of still grabbing him almost fueled his arrogance.

So Xi Yan raised his chin towards Tang Xi, with an attitude of "choose one of the two and give me a word now": "I'll stay, so where will this drunkard stay?"

Tang Xi immediately raised her eyebrows: "Who is a drunk?! Have you ever seen such a good-looking drunk?!"

Zhong Qin glanced at Tang Xi, probably warning him to shut up.

Then... Zhong Qin seemed to understand the logic of "choose one from the other". He only paused for a moment, and then replied, "I don't care about this, just throw it to sleep on the street and see if the sanitation will accept it."

The corner of Xi Yan's mouth curled up, and he quickly suppressed it.

Relieved, Zhong Qin let go of his hand, just as the hot water boiled, Zhong Qin went into the preparation room and made a cup of hot milk for Xi Xiaogou with milk powder.

Tang Xi, who received the "threat of sleeping on the street", was not happy, and turned to the curtain of the preparation room passionately, "You son of a bitch! Brother has been hurting you for so many years! If you don't care, then I don't care, anyway, I'm going to do it today." Sleep here! You can figure it out!"

Zhong Qin held the cup in one hand and stirred with the spoon in the other, and even had the time to argue with Tang Xi in the air: "Calm down, you, who have you ever seen who can stay with me? Go ask Brother Guang, see him OK?"

Tang Xi clicked his tongue, displeased: "Conscienceless thing."

The heartless thing came out of the preparation room, turned a blind eye to the flames on Tang Xi's head, and walked back to Xi Yan.

Xi Yan blinked, and reached out to take the hot milk Zhong Qin handed him: "...me."

Zhong Qin and Tang Xi didn't know why at the same time, and were taken aback for a while.

Xi Yan seemed to be confirming carefully, but also seemed to be secretly poking his own territory: "...Can I stay here and not leave?"

Zhong Qin lost his temper completely now.

He said helplessly: "Yes, you can. If you know it, just be honest and don't make trouble with me."

Xi Yan agreed with an "Aww", the small dark cloud above his head dissipated in an instant, the cold wind was still blowing outside, but his world had cleared up, and he didn't even care about Zhong Qin's bad tone, it was simply extremely magnanimous up.

And... Zhong Qin was standing so close now that he could definitely smell a faint smell of alcohol from Zhong Qin.

Xi Yan, a former social animal who had been tortured by the entertainment, double-labeled on the spot, and asked with concern: "...you drank too? Um, are you dizzy?"

Zhong Qin didn't answer directly, but stretched out a finger, tapped the cup in Xi Yan's hand, and said, "Save some for me."

Xi Yan looked at the hot milk in the cup, and nodded obediently: "Well, well, then...you talk, I'll go upstairs to play."

Xi Puppy ran away, and Tang Xi watched Xi Yan go up the stairs holding the cup happily, and teased Zhong Qin with great interest: "Ah Qin, why are you so easy to coax, a little classmate? Just give me a glass of milk. You bought it—what about mine? You don’t even have a glass of boiled water, let alone milk, who is the drunk who needs your care?”

Zhong Qin leaned back on the edge of the table next to Tang Xi, and was pulling out his mobile phone to read his WeChat messages, when he heard this, he raised his eyelids and pointed in the direction of the preparation room: "Didn't it mean that there is no drunk like you? If you have hands, you can pour it yourself."

Tang Xi was not in a hurry to express her dissatisfaction this time, but raised the corners of her eyes, and from the perspective of a mature adult, she asked curiously: "During the meal just now, Hu Xue kept saying that Ah Qin fell in love early. Still don't believe it—now it seems...it's actually true?"

Zhong Qin looked down at the message Xi Yan sent him just now, without hesitation in speaking: "I'm not in love."

Tang Xi propped her chin, and bent a pair of teasing eyes: "Did I not fall in love, or... failed to fall in love?"

Zhong Qin's fingertips paused for a moment, then put away the phone, raised his head and stretched his neck, and admitted: "...I'm not in love."

Tang Xi sneered: "It's strange, it's so strange, we, Ah Qin, have something we can't handle? It's really Chinese New Year, should I call Yue Guang and Hu Xue back? It's a pity not to surround you and laugh It's..."

Zhong Qin: "..."

A grown-up who meets people unkindly, makes friends carelessly, and is a mature bullshit.

Tang Xi had had enough laughs, so she cleared her throat, and forced herself into the shape of a close brother: "What's the progress? Now, tell me to make me laugh...cough, let me listen to it."

"..." Zhong Qin glanced at him, "No progress, he is not from here."

Tang Xi was about to raise her eyebrows as high as the ceiling: "You don't care if he is——didn't you see the puppy-like eyes he looked at me just now? He just pissed on you and told me This is his territory! As for the flirting between you two, I felt it was wrong the first time I saw you, don't tell me you didn't see it. "

The corner of Zhong Qin's mouth twitched: "Can't you be more civilized?"

"Can I make you fall in love with me if I become civilized? Civilization doesn't matter, it's only useful to play hooligans and shameless." Tang Xi rolled her eyes, talking nonsense to harm the flowers of the motherland, "I don't know what virtue you have, Why are you pretending to be an innocent high school student with me..."

Zhong Qin and Tang Xi have known each other for several years, and they are a little more lively than usual in bickering: "I'm not a high school student, so are you?"

Tang Xi clicked her tongue: "The key is pure love! ——Are you pure?"

Zhong Qin didn't want to discuss his innocence with Tang Xi, but some emotions lingered in his heart. If he had to confide, Tang Xi or Yue Guang would be good listeners.

Zhong Qin was silent for a moment, and said: "He trusts me, and occasionally he will play tricks on me. Is there anything else... I haven't figured it out yet."

Tang Xi was somewhat surprised by this.

Based on his understanding of Zhong Qin, "unclear" doesn't necessarily mean that he couldn't tell at all, but because the other party's attitude was vague, so even Zhong Qin became cautious.

When Zhong Qin was not 100% sure of the other party's intentions, he was very careful even giving hints and guidance.

Because this is not a broad and bright avenue, but a small road that may be thorny or full of criticism.

Because once it starts at this age, it will completely change the life of the other party.

Because he cherishes the other party enough, Zhong Qin is also serious and forbearing enough.

Tang Xi has seen Zhong Qin's countless "casual play" moments, when he gave up delivery for the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in Yuegui Lane, when he was writing a speech for a student representative, and when he went for a walk with the dog on the morning of the monthly exam, the teacher invited his parents to let Yue Guang Time to make up the numbers.

Similarly, Tang Xi has also seen Zhong Qin's countless serious moments, when he was really studying, when he was taking care of the injured cat and dog, and when he was bothering to manage "another companion"—perhaps now we should add another... When Xi Yan, trying his best not to let Xi Yan feel burdened by his own feelings.

"Absolutely, is this the sixteen or seventeen-year-old who treats cats like dogs and ignores them..." Tang Xi had already drank a lot of wine, and it hurt even more after hearing this, "I have said that to you more than once, Where does such a strong sense of responsibility come from at an older age..."

Zhong Qin raised his eyebrows and did not speak, but went to pour a glass of boiled water for Tang Xi who was suffering from a headache.

Tang Xi is used to doing whatever he wants, and when he meets a rationalist like Zhong Qin, he gets a headache. He waved his hand and asked sharply: "Even if you really don't want him to 'go astray', you still hope that his feelings for you are' Like', admit it?"

Zhong Qin didn't hesitate: "Admit it."

"The so-called authorities are obsessed..." Tang Xi felt helpless, feeling sorry for Zhong Qin's sensibleness for the [-]th time, and said with emotion, "You are really one of the few authorities I have met who is not obsessed at all."

Tang Xi sighed, took two sips of hot water, stretched out his hands and rubbed his temples, if possible, he hoped that his own "willfulness" could be shared with Zhong Qin, so that Zhong Qin could also go to the hospital at an age when he should be carefree. Reckless once.

Guessing that Yue Guang was about to arrive, Tang Xi stood up and stretched lightly, flexing her muscles and bones. When she slowly lowered her raised arms, Tang Xi was not standing still, so she simply walked along the road and took a ride. On Zhong Qin's neck.

Tang Xi, as a frivolous person who has always had the bad habit of being teasing... a mature adult, is standing face to face with Zhong Qin as if he has no bones. One forearm rested lazily on Zhong Qin's shoulder, and Zhi Leng's hand behind Zhong Qin's back was still not in shape, so he ran to rub the hair on the back of Zhong Qin's head twice.

The confidant elder brother persuaded earnestly: "It's enough to admit it. I still want to do so much. The [-]th and [-]th is not just the time to fall in love early. You think you are doing it for his own good. I can't guarantee that he will be enlightened someday. I will regret missing you——what age is Ah Qin?"

Tang Xi is not as tall as Zhong Qin. With such a pose, people get close.

Zhong Qin and Yue Guang have a very good relationship, and they are too familiar with each other. Even though Zhong Qin never said it, they are still very close family members in Zhong Qin's heart, and he is not a person who rejects the use of physical contact to express intimacy people.

Yue Guang likes to forcibly press his head, and Hu Xue likes to lean next to him and hook his shoulders.

Tang Xi is a flirtatious dandy, and likes to intentionally engage in ambiguous little tricks. It is purely for fun to pretend to tease people. For example, poor Hu Xue is always pinched in the face and spanked by him.

Zhong Qin thought about what Tang Xi said in his mind, and his mouth was the same as usual, and he said in distaste, "Love tutor, please get up, it smells like alcohol."

"Didn't you drink a lot too?" Tang Xi tried to persuade people seriously for a few seconds, then she suddenly turned her eyes slyly, and said in a low voice, "Shh, your little classmate has come down... Since you are reluctant, I will push him for you a handful."

Sure enough, behind Zhong Qin, there was the movement of corgis gathering towards the stairs. I don't know if Tang Xi, a drunk, had his ears upstairs.

Zhong Qin didn't comment, but frowned slightly.

But when he caught a glimpse of Xi Yan coming out of the stairs from the corner of his eye, he suddenly raised his hand as if he had made a decision - and brushed Tang Xi's strand of hair from his temple behind his ear.

——Xi Yan didn't see the surprise and ridicule flashing in Tang Xi's eyes, but only saw this indecent flirt.

Xi Yan immediately stopped and frowned, his heart felt sour and painful as if soaked in lemonade or gnawed by a mad dog.

Distracted for several days and nights.

Unintentional ridicule by classmates and friends.

A series of jokes from the sidelines.

The juvenile's disorganized mind suddenly mixed together, wrapped in the grievance mixed in the cold winter night wind, and finally shouted in Xi Yan's heart.

The more you look forward to, the more tormented you will be.

The more depressed, the more brutal.

The more you hide, the more you grow.

This kind of emotion, which he had deliberately ignored several times, came back again, like a burning match that fell into the oil star, and ignited the possessive desire that young people could not restrain... and the ignorant feeling that finally woke up like a dream. like.

Xi Yan endured the unexplainable anger that could not be explained satisfactorily with "dog temper", and lowered his voice to cover up his grievance: "There are others, it's not appropriate to flirt in public places."

——Xi Yan couldn't deny that when the four words "flirting" were used to describe Zhong Qin and others, his feeling was really terrible, and it made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

He just thought about it and decided to make another cup of hot milk for Zhong Qin.

Zhong Qin took advantage of his absence to flirt with others.

Tang Xi withdrew the hand on Zhong Qin's shoulder awkwardly, stood up straight in a rare embarrassment, and gave Zhong Qin a glance, which probably meant "You fucking little wolf cub, go to your uncle's pure love high school." born".

Zhong Qin put on a scumbag face like a normal person, as if he was saying that he owed molested people a moment's pleasure, shouldn't the molested one charge some interest?

Tang Xi: "..."

Eldest Young Master Tang coughed, and decided to give way to little classmate Xi Yan who was on the brink of explosion.

So Tang Xibai was a toolman, and he had to calmly appease the emotions of the little classmates: "What are you talking about, we usually get along like this."

Zhong Qin pinched the bridge of his nose with a headache.

Xi Yan's fingers hidden in his cuffs curled up, and his face turned black under Tang Xi's extremely incorrect "comfort". He put down the glass in his hand expressionlessly, and walked towards the door.

Zhong Qin's gaze followed him: "Where are you going?"

Without looking sideways, Xi Yan dropped a sentence of "convenience store", opened the door and stepped out-then with a click, he hung the door lock outside and locked it firmly.

Zhong Qin: "..."

Tang Xi: "...Where is the convenience store?"

Zhong Qin sighed: "Next door."

Tang Xi laughed angrily on the spot: "Do I need a taxi to go to the next door?! This is going to run away, why don't you go after it?!"

Zhong Qin watched as Xi Yan hired a taxi and walked away, also choked for a moment: "...the door is locked for me, how can I chase after it."

Tang Xi: "Damn, where is Yue Guang?! He drove to his grandma's house?!"

Tang Xi didn't pretend to be drunk, took out her mobile phone, called Yue Guang, and started cursing.

Zhong Qin's eyes turned to the empty glass with traces of milk, and he was a little dazed for a while.

Tang Xi hung up the phone, seeing that Zhong Qin was in a daze, she didn't know what to say, and finally said angrily: "Everyone ran away in anger, now you know how distressed you are?"

Zhong Qin hummed without denying it.

After a while, Zhong Qin said: "When he was here with me, he was very relaxed and noisy, probably because of his trust and dependence on me."

Out of trust and dependence between friends.

Zhong Qin still stared at the milk mark on the cup, as if grasping the trace of some emotion, he was talking about Xi Yan and himself: "It hurts a little, and I like it."

It is the love that exceeds the boundaries of friends, the more forbearing and rampant, and the love that you must want to monopolize.

Tang Xi was stunned for a long time, and had to admit that coquettish playboys have nothing to do with smart kids.

He spread his hands, convinced——

By confirming the other party's mind, Zhong Qin also saw his own mind and thoughts thoroughly.
