At seven o'clock in the evening, the sky is not yet completely dark, and Haicheng is brightly lit.

Xing Chi didn't have much work today, so he finished the notice and returned home very early.He played the game for a while, getting a little absorbed in the game, and by the time he put down the controller, it was past dinner time.

Oops, almost forgot.

He quickly took out his mobile phone, entered the chat box called [Baby and Food Parents] in a familiar place, and quickly tapped the screen with his fingers.

[Xing Chi: Mr. Lu, are you still busy?Eat dinner on time]

【Xing Chi: I made soup by myself tonight, it tastes good, I will make it for you when you come back】

[Xing Chi: Right, when will you return to China?I want to pick you up at the airport]

【Xing Chi: I miss you a little bit】

Several messages in succession were sent out quickly, as if there was no need to think at all.

After sending the last sentence, as if he had completed some task, he closed WeChat without even looking at it, and ordered a takeaway.

He didn't make an announcement tonight, and Lu Zhirui is abroad again, his manager will 100% not come to him, it's the best time to secretly indulge his stomach.

Thinking of this, he went to open another can of iced cola that his manager strictly prohibited him from drinking.

However, just after taking two sips of Coke, the agent called.

"Hurry up and come to Haicheng People's Hospital." Yue Ying's voice was noisy. "Boss Lu had a car accident."

The Coke can in Xingchi's hand almost fell over.

"Don't worry, it's not serious." Yue Ying said. "The assistant said it was just a small bump and there was no danger, just rest for a few days and it would be fine."

"Oh..." Xing Chi returned to the sofa. "Isn't he abroad?"

Yue Ying on the other end of the phone clicked her tongue clearly.

"Mr. Lu's plane is going back to Haicheng today, don't you know?"

Xing Chi laughed awkwardly: "I just know he's going back to China these two days."

Speaking of this, he quickly added: "He doesn't answer the phone very often, and every time I message him, he only responds with a word or two, and he didn't tell me anything."

Yue Ying was a little speechless with his tone like an employee shirking responsibility.She didn't bother him too much, and said, "then go over quickly. Boss Lu is still in a coma at the moment. Go over and have a look and stay there for a while."

"Coma? Is that not serious?"

"It is said that he knocked his head to the head, but he was not injured. The doctor said that he was unconscious due to overwork," Yue Ying said. "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and clean up, I'll call the driver over."

"Don't worry, Sister Yue!" Xing Chi hurriedly interrupted her.

Their company is near the Bund, and the drive to his apartment takes less than 10 minutes.The fried chicken he ordered today was at the top of the list of prohibited foods given to him by his manager. If he asked the driver to come over right now, he would definitely be discovered.

"What's wrong?" Yue Ying on the other end of the phone asked him.

Xing Chi hurriedly made an excuse: "Boss Lu is injured, so I can't go there empty-handed, right? I'll make him some snacks, and you can let the driver come back after two hours."

"But……"

"Boss Lu isn't awake anyway, and I can't help by just sitting over there." Xing Chi coaxed.

Yue Ying seemed to make sense: "Then I'll ask the driver to come later, so hurry up."

Xing Chi agreed and hung up the phone.There are still two hours, and he is now going to adjust the ingredients and bake a biscuit. It will not take long in total, just enough for him to eat fried chicken.

-

Lu Zhirui had a splitting headache.

There is a six-hour time difference between Berlin and Haicheng. He couldn't sleep well on the plane, so he is somewhat uncomfortable at the moment.

The driver drove very steadily.Lu Zhirui took out his mobile phone, and as soon as he turned it on, many missed calls and text messages popped up.

He looked over one by one, and most of them were sent by the company's subordinates.

He has never been in the habit of replying to messages. He read them one by one, and then transferred the content that needed to be dealt with immediately to Ji Lan, the chief assistant, and asked her to contact them.

The last message is from Germany.

It was the person in charge of the new energy company who made a special trip to discuss cooperation this time, and sent a group photo of them on the day they signed the contract, wishing them a happy co-tenancy.

Lu Zhirui cut the input method into a foreign language, and responded with a rare sentence.

【Happy cooperation. 】

Just then, several WeChat messages popped up.

Lu Zhirui glanced up, it was Xing Chi.

He didn't even click on the chat box, just glanced at the pop-up window, and swiped the pop-up window away.

He's not in the country these days, and he doesn't have time to take care of him.When Ji Lan called yesterday, she told him that Xing Chi had been depressed for the past two days and hadn't eaten properly for two days.

Lu Zhirui hooked the corners of his lips.

Just this little trick, I didn't get tired of playing it over and over again.What could he be depressed about?It's just that I haven't seen him for a few days, and I have a small temper.

This child is docile and well-behaved, even if he loses his temper, he can't make a splash.Lu Zhirui didn't take it seriously at all, put the phone aside, and closed his eyes with his forehead propped up.

He is very tired right now, all the social dinners have been postponed, and he just wants to go home and have a good sleep first.

Let Ji Lan arrange for him to have dinner tomorrow.Lu Zhirui thought to himself.Otherwise, it's time to cry secretly again.

At this moment, a sudden brake was applied.

As soon as Lu Zhirui opened his eyes, he saw a red sports car rushing from the side and rear.Through the window, a drunk driver sat in the co-pilot of the convertible. His cheeks were flushed, his eyes were staring, and he stepped on the brake instead of the accelerator.

In an instant, a huge collision sounded.Lu Zhirui was sitting in the back seat without a seat belt, and was bumped forward violently, bumping his head against the edge of the window.

It was pitch black, and he lost consciousness.

-

After an unknown amount of time, Lu Zhirui's consciousness gradually returned. He opened his eyes with difficulty, but a bright light suddenly appeared in front of him.

Very bright, different from the lights embedded in the night outside the car window.Amidst the glaring brightness, a strange living room appeared in front of his eyes.

Big, very big.

The whole house seemed to be magnified many times, so high that even the chair beside him had to look up to see it.His body was very soft, as if he was lying on a bed without a support. Outside the huge French windows in the distance, the night view of the Bund was shining brightly.

……What is this place?

At this moment, a smell of frying oil wafted to his nostrils, and then, the crisp ring-pull sound sounded behind him.

He turned his head sharply.

I saw a carton of fried chicken on the huge frosted coffee table, wrapped in crystal clear sauce, slowly steaming.

Behind the coffee table, Xing Chi, his lover for three years, was sitting cross-legged on the wide wool carpet, with a drink in one hand and a TV remote control in the other.

He looked straight at Xing Chi, and Xing Chi also noticed him.

They met eyes.He looked cold, but Xing Chi raised the corners of his mouth and smiled at him.

"Rui Zai, are you awake?" Xing Chi said.

-

As soon as Xing Chi sat down in front of the tea table, he found his cat woke up.

He picked up this cat at the entrance of the company some time ago. It happened to be raining that day, and this half-grown kitten shivered in a corner.He couldn't bear it, and secretly took the cat home, because of this matter, Yue Ying scolded him a lot.

Because Lu Zhirui doesn't like cats, he's furry, has a cleanliness habit, and hates all animals that shed hair.

How unreasonable is that?It's as if he doesn't lose his hair himself.Because of this, Xing Chi retaliated and named the cat Rui Zai.

However, since Lu Zhirui had never been to Xingchi's house, Yue Ying finally agreed with him to keep the cat.

This is a long-haired little orange cat, washed clean like a lion cub.It has a good temper and doesn't recognize strangers. It hasn't lived in Xingchi's house for long, and it has already become familiar with him.

"Rui Zai, are you awake?" Xing Chi smiled with crooked eyebrows, and raised his hand to wave to the kitten.

However, the cat didn't seem to wake up, and it didn't move when it saw him greet him.

I saw it slowly stand up from the cat nest, with its two front paws slightly apart, standing extremely upright, looking at him quietly with its head held high and chest out.

Xing Chi scratched the back of his head with the remote control.

Illusion?Why did he feel that the cat looked at him a little coldly, even frowning.

Laugh to death, where does the kitten have eyebrows?Xing Chi was amused by his own thoughts, picked up a piece of fried chicken and shook it at the kitten: "Rui Zai, look what this is?"

I don't know what's going on, but the cat's brows seem to wrinkle even deeper.

It even took two steps back, with serious eyes, as if looking at him displeased.

This kitten's orange cat bloodline couldn't be more pure. Every time he sees him eating, his eyes glow green. If he can't help but jump on the table to grab his food, why did he change his gender today?

Xing Chi became interested, put down the Coke and walked over.

The kitten seemed to have noticed something, and jumped up from the cat nest to hide.But before he could dodge, he stepped on his tail and staggered, and was scooped into his arms by Xing Chi.

"Little friend Ah Rui, why are you pretending to be deep today?" He hugged the cat and rubbed it.

The kitten didn't move.

"Don't pretend to be deep, learn like Lu Zhirui." Xing Chi said. "How annoying."

As if stimulated by a certain word, the cat struggled violently in his arms.Xing Chi was afraid of hurting it, so he bent down and put it on the ground.

When the cat landed, it slipped and almost fell on its face.Immediately afterwards, it took a few steps forward at a brisk pace.

The few steps it took were extremely strange. The steps were big and heavy, but its limbs were uncoordinated, and it walked crookedly.

After a few steps, it stopped, turned around lightly, and stood upright on the ground.

Upright, solemn, with an awe-inspiring arrogance.

But these appeared on a kitten, which made the cat's prudish appearance even cuter.Xing Chi was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, took two steps forward, and wanted to hug the cat again.

But the cat stepped back alertly, looked up at him, and opened its mouth.

"Meow--"

It was clearly a warning of alienation, but when Meow came out, it was a soft and sweet meow, even with a little tone of voice, as if she was acting like a baby.

"Okay, okay." Xing Chi's voice also softened, and he coaxed it with a smile, as if he could really understand what it was meowing. "Don't scold you, don't scold you, our baby is not like Lu Zhirui, is it?"

A slight silver light flashed, and it was the kitten gnashing its teeth, accidentally revealing half of its sharp canine teeth.

Xing Chi didn't realize it, and smiled even more happily.

-

After Xing Chi had finished eating the fried chicken, the driver called and said that he was ready to leave.Xing Chi packed up the takeaway boxes, and the biscuits in the kitchen were also baked.

The biscuits are milk cranberry, and he always makes them for Lu Zhirui, because they are the best, convenient and trouble-free.

Ever since it ran away from Xingchi's arms, the cat stood there motionless, not knowing what it was thinking.Xing Chi only thought it was sleepy, so he didn't bully it anymore, bypassed it and went into the kitchen.

The oven was turned on, and the aroma of biscuits came to my face immediately.Xing Chi took out the baking pan wearing gloves and placed it on the island.

The heat is still not well controlled, and half of the biscuits on the baking tray are burnt, only the middle part is intact.Xing Chi sighed in disappointment, took the biscuits out of the baking tray, picked up one and took a bite.

Quite fragrant, but not sweet enough.

It's because Lu Zhirui doesn't like sweets.Every time Xing Chi makes snacks for him, the sugar can only be put in one-third to half, so Lu Zhirui only eats one or two mouthfuls each time.

Xing Chi took out a delicate glass jar, picked out the baked biscuits and ate them, and put the mushy part into the jar.It wasn't until the glass jar was almost full that he picked out a few better pieces and put them in the jar.

After finishing this, he closed the jar with satisfaction, and picked up the remaining two unbaked biscuits.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Rui Zai following him at some point, standing at the door of the kitchen, watching him quietly.

Xing Chi held the intact biscuit in one hand and the jar containing the burnt biscuit in the other, feeling a little guilty suddenly, as if a kitten had discovered something.

It must be a guilty conscience, otherwise why would he feel that the kitten's eyes are full of scrutiny?

He stepped forward and knelt down, put a biscuit into his mouth, and put another in front of Rui Zai.

"Let's eat, how about trying my brother's craftsmanship." He said with a smile.

But Rui Zai, who has always been greedy, didn't even sniff the biscuit in his hand, but turned the kitten's head and stared at the jar in Xing Chi's hand with serious eyes.

Of course Xing Chi couldn't understand the complex emotions in the kitten's eyes.He saw Rui Zai staring at the pot, and he thought it was eating pots and pans. He quickly put the pot in his arms, and reached out to stroke the kitten's head.

"Be good, Rui Zai, the inside of this one is roasted and can't be eaten." Xing Chi said with a smile.

"This is for Lu Zhirui."
