Soot, Moonlight, Vodka

Chen Zhuo has been very resistant to bringing up this topic with Xia Zhifeng, as if talking about "love" between them is a taboo.

But when Xia Zhifeng really said it without any scruples, Chen Zhuo found that he didn't have such a big reaction.

Why can't he admit frankly that Xia Zhifeng is really special to him, even though Chen Zhuo still doesn't think that he "likes him and can't do without him".

Xia Zhifeng is very likable, but Chen Zhuo only stays at the level of liking him, for Chen Zhuo, this is enough.

On Christmas Eve, Jiang Yu and Xia Zhifeng asked Chen Zhuo out for dinner at the same time, and Chen Zhuo agreed to Jiang Yu's invitation.

He felt that there were some things that he had to explain to Jiang Yu face to face. As for Xia Zhifeng, he was always tired of being together, and it was not too late.

"What? You want to go out with her?" Xia Zhifeng was so shocked that the warm water bottle in his arms dropped: "What, why?"

"Talk about something, don't you want me to explain it to her?" Chen Zhuo said while changing his shoes.

"Wow, you can pick the day, Christmas!"

"I'll be back early and bring you candy canes."

Chen Zhuo and Jiang Yu made an appointment at a relatively private restaurant. Tonight there is a special Christmas menu, roast turkey and Christmas pudding. Even the waiters are dressed in Santa Claus costumes, and the dining car is decorated to look like reindeer.

The two exchanged a few words, talked about some work matters as a warm-up topic, and then got down to business.

"Actually, I'm really happy that you agreed to come out to dinner with me." Jiang Yu said, "I thought you wouldn't come."

"Because I also have something to tell you."

"Really?" There was hope in Jiang Yu's eyes: "What is it? Maybe we are thinking about the same thing."

"I want to thank you. You have always taken good care of me in the film crew." Chen Zhuo looked into Jiang Yu's eyes, "Perhaps you know that I have not been in a good state recently, and it may be more difficult to act in the filming... Thanks to you .”

Jiang Yu shook his head: "Not at all, I think your condition has improved. It was true that you were a little depressed when you first joined the group, but it's okay after that, isn't it? No matter what the outside world says, you still He is the most attractive actor in my heart. Besides, I am not taking care of you, I am just... expressing my heart."

Speaking of this, Jiang Yu's face turned reddish, taking advantage of the red ribbon and pearl earrings, she was very cute.

"I feel it," Chen Zhuo said, "I'm ashamed, I can't equally respond to your heart, because my heart belongs to me, and it will never change in my life."

Although Jiang Yu had long been prepared for disappointment, Chen Zhuo's words still made her feel sore.

"I'm sorry." Chen Zhuo said.

Jiang Yu immediately smiled and shook her head: "No, I'm not sorry, thank you for telling me." She paused, "Is that person you're talking about... Lu Xingze?"

"Yes." Chen Zhuo replied without any hesitation.

"It turned out to be true," Jiang Yu muttered to himself, "I can hardly tell whether the news on the gossip news is true or not." It was also because of this that I fell deeper and deeper into Chen Zhuo.

"I should say that I don't cry when I don't see the coffin," Jiang Yu said with a self-deprecating smile: "I know there will be no result."

"Can you still be friends with me?" Jiang Yu raised his face again, with a bright smile again.

"of course."

"As a friend, I hope you can be happy." When Jiang Yu said this, his eyes still couldn't help but shed tears.

"Thank you, and you too."

At least, Jiang Yu still has a chance to fall in love with someone else.

But Chen Zhuo won't.

The timing when Lu Xingze appeared by his side, Lu Xingze's position in his life, and everything Lu Xingze gave him, all made it impossible for Chen Zhuo to fall in love with the second person.

Jiang Yu looked at Chen Zhuo's leaving back, and a loneliness that she had never felt hit her heart.

Chen Zhuo went back downstairs to the apartment and saw that the lights on the floor of his house had gone out.

Is Xia Zhifeng asleep?Or go out to play?

Chen Zhuo came in and turned on the light, and Xia Zhifeng in a sexy Christmas costume was lying on the sofa.

A small red and white Christmas hat, a slim Christmas dress that just rightly exposes the back and thighs, and a silver bell the size of an apple is tied to the bow on the chest.

There are gift boxes of various colors piled up beside him.

"Hi, I'm here to deliver presents in place of Santa Claus," Xia Zhifeng said hello to him lying on his stomach, "When I got to your house, I was too tired to walk, can I stay overnight?"

"Where's your deer?" Chen Zhuo asked.

"Santa Claus can only use reindeer, and apprentices like me can only walk..." Xia Zhifeng got up and came to Chen Zhuo's side, putting his hands on his shoulders: "If you are willing to take me in, you can do whatever you want to me ~"

Chen Zhuo took off his coat, hugged Xia Zhifeng by the waist, Xia Zhifeng smiled and rubbed his ears.

Although Chen Zhuo looks thin, he is also constantly exercising for filming. It is not a problem to pick up a big man who is about 1.8 meters tall, not to mention that he has not worn much clothes yet.

Xia Zhifeng couldn't help tossing about the cheap cosplay clothes he bought, and they tore them when they rolled onto the bed.

Chen Zhuo held a piece of thin red velvet cloth.

"Uh..." Xia Zhifeng scratched his head: "Apprentices' clothes are like this, crudely made...don't worry about it."

Chen Zhuo admitted that Xia Zhifeng was very good at flirting, and he didn't even know when he prepared it.

Xia Zhifeng covered Chen Zhuo's eyes with the fallen red cloth, and Chen Zhuo removed the red cloth again.

He has to see clearly who he is with.

In a blink of an eye, there are less than two or three days left in this year.

At the end of the year, the production crew had a small vacation. Chen Zhuo and Xia Zhifeng basically stayed at home to rest. Xia Zhifeng occasionally started a broadcast, and spent more time with Chen Zhuo.

It's good to do something with him, two people spend time together.

Three days later in the evening, while Chen Zhuo and Xia Zhifeng were in bed, they received a call from a foreign country.

Chen Zhuo immediately picked up the phone.

"Chen, there have been several heavy rains recently, and Mr. Lu's backyard has been severely damaged. I think this is the yard that you and Mr. Lu took care of together, so I would like to ask your opinion. If you want to start repairing, those plants How to deal with it, such as Baojin flower and strelitzia, sugar palm tree..."

"I'll go there right away, don't do anything." Chen Zhuo sat up: "Thank you for calling."

Xia Zhifeng supported his upper body with his elbows: "What's wrong?"

"I have something to go to the Maldives." Chen Zhuo's attitude did not allow any objection.

He quickly dressed and went to the entrance.

"Shall I go with you? Why are you in such a hurry?" Xia Zhifeng didn't have time to put on his shoes when he got out of bed.

"I'll go by myself." Chen Zhuo refused Xia Zhifeng's company.

"When are you coming back?"

"Not sure, I'll do it as soon as possible." After speaking, Chen Zhuo went out.

Xia Zhifeng hadn't had time to say to drive him off.

In fact, Xia Zhifeng heard the conversation when he was on the bed just now.

As long as there is anything about Lu Xingze, it is enough to summon Chen Zhuo to Lu Xingze's side.

Xia Zhifeng shouldn't be so overconfident that he has to compare himself with Lu Xingze. In Chen Zhuo's heart, Xia Zhifeng is nothing but an existence that can be discarded at any time.

Although it was a bit cruel, Xia Zhifeng understood this.

Lu Xingze was created by him, an invincible rival in love.

He could only watch helplessly as Chen Zhuo ran towards the shadow without hesitation.

As night fell, Xia Zhifeng sent Chen Zhuo a message: Be careful, don't worry.

no reply.

Xia Zhifeng had a premonition that the New Year's Eve appointment in the amusement park should be in vain.
