deep blue

After leaving school, Mu Zhanxi took Meng Yinan to a supermarket with few people, bought some fresh vegetables and snacks, and then went home to cook.

Meng Yinan got up early in the morning and exhausted a lot of energy due to fighting. After returning home, he had nothing to do and soon fell asleep on the sofa.

Mu Zhanxi turned off the small fire. When he came out of the kitchen, Meng Yinan was already in a deep sleep. He probably had a bad dream. He frowned slightly and muttered something in a low voice.

Mu Zhanxi stood and watched for a while, then covered him with a blanket.

At this time, the mobile phone in his pocket vibrated, Mu Zhanxi took it out and took a look, a little surprised because the caller was Meng Du.

For a moment, he thought that Meng Yinan's head teacher had said something to Meng Du, so Meng Du came to ask about the situation.But he changed his mind and denied this idea. If he had to find his parents to solve it from the beginning, he would not have been called from the high school.

The teacher already knew that Meng Yinan's side was difficult to deal with, and he was probably worrying about how to deal with Fang Qiao's parents. There was no need to make this matter more complicated.

As for how troubled the teacher is, it's none of Mu Zhanxi's business.

After hesitating for a moment, Mu Zhanxi connected the phone.

"Hello? Is it Xiaoxi?" Across the ocean, Meng Du's voice was sweet and soft, showing the soft and comfortable mood exclusive to Omega.

Mu Zhanxi frowned almost as soon as he heard the voice. He guessed that Meng Du should be with Mu Zhong at this time, otherwise he wouldn't be so deliberate.

Sure enough, Meng Du said with a smile: "Your father and I just finished the reception and were walking nearby. There are many special gift shops here. Do you have anything you want? Uncle has been here for so long, and there is no What did I send you?"

"Thank you," Mu Zhanxi suppressed his voice, intending not to wake up the sleeping person on the sofa, but it seemed low and without warmth, "I don't have anything I want."

On the other end of the call, Meng Du seemed to be stunned for a moment, then let out a helpless laugh with a bit of distress, and said in a soft and easy-going voice: "You are like this, uncle is so difficult."

Before Mu Zhanxi could answer, Meng Du said softly again: "Your father is watching me over there, so just treat it as a face to uncle, is that okay?"

This is a cunning Omega, there is no need to save face when giving gifts, let alone as the stepson of the younger generation.He put Mu Zhanxi in a higher position than himself, not only to please Mu Zhanxi, but also to please Mu Zhanxi.

Mu Zhanxi felt very tired immediately. Whether it was the head teacher who was good at making love in the morning, or the stepfather who was full of scheming at this time, it made people feel bored and boring.

"I don't have the gift I want," Mu Zhanxi repeated, and couldn't help asking, "Why don't you ask Meng Yinan if he has anything he wants?"

"What's the matter? Uncle didn't ask him, so you're still arguing for him?" At the end of the call, only the smile in this sentence was not artificial, Meng Du said briskly, "When did your relationship become so good? "

Mu Zhanxi opened his mouth, wanting to explain, but in the end he didn't say anything in denial, as if he acquiesced to Meng Du's statement.After waiting for two seconds, he expressed his meaning again: "Just enjoy the holiday with my dad, don't bother to bring me anything."

Meng Du then said that he was filial, and praised Meng Yinan a few words before mentioning Meng Yinan: "Don't worry, how could Uncle forget him? He bought a lot of gifts for the little guy, so he can look forward to it." Meng Du changed the subject, He also said, "Actually, uncle wants to give you a gift because he wants to thank you for taking care of him. Xiao Nan is young, and the adults are not at home during this time. If there are any difficulties in life, I have to ask you to help him."

To be honest, Mu Zhanxi's life at home alone is very regular. Going to school, reading books, studying, playing games with classmates...everything is planned. In the past, he even knew what he would do at a certain time in the next week. What.

But Meng Yinan suddenly appeared, not as planned.

Taking care of a 15-year-old boy who has the ability to take care of himself seems to be a very simple matter, just take care of a mouthful of food, but in fact it is not.The figure of the child permeates the minutiae of life, which means that no matter what Mu Zhanxi does, he needs to consider Meng Yinan.

So when Meng Du said thank you, Mu Zhanxi had reason to be thanked.

But inexplicably, Mu Zhanxi didn't like Meng Du's statement.He replied: "Meng Yinan is very good, he didn't bother me."

Hearing this, Meng Du laughed happily again: "Really? That's good."

Meng Du's smile disgusted Mu Zhanxi, but he couldn't explain why.Obviously half a month ago when Meng Du left, he also said similar things, asking him to take care of Meng Yinan, his younger brother was causing him trouble, etc. At that time, Mu Zhanxi's heart was not disturbed.

"Then uncle won't bother you anymore. Your father and I are not at home during this time. You two should get along well."

The purpose of this phone call seemed to be to ask Mu Zhanxi what gift he wanted. Now that there was a result, Meng Du ended the call after a few polite words.

Seeing the end of the call displayed on the screen of the mobile phone, Mu Zhanxi frowned unconsciously, looking rather dissatisfied. After waiting for a while, he put away the mobile phone and walked back to the kitchen.

It was an hour after Meng Yinan woke up.

He had cramp in his calf, and he could feel the pain in his dream, and it took a while for him to wait until the pain disappeared after waking up.

While waiting, he stared blankly at the chandelier on the zenith, with a look of being awake but not fully awake, then turned his head to look at the kitchen, and he stretched his neck a little, but he didn't see anyone.

When he found himself alone, he thought of something, his eyes fell on the fruit plate on the table, he closed his eyes after a while, covered them with his hands, and exhaled slowly.

Then, he heard Mu Zhanxi's voice from above his head: "Are you awake?"

Meng Yinan froze for a moment, opened his eyes and looked up, only to find Mu Zhanxi sitting next to him.

The sofa seats four people, and Mu Zhanxi sits leaning on the armrest, while Meng Yinan is lying horizontally, taking up the length of the remaining three people. If he goes up a little further, his head will touch Mu Zhanxi's leg.

This is a distance that looks like nothing, but is actually subtle.

Meng Yinan raised his head and looked at Mu Zhanxi for two seconds. The chaos that had just woken up had not completely disappeared. He was thinking about how he fell asleep and how he would wake up like this.

But before he came to a conclusion, he realized a very embarrassing thing. After waking up, he seemed to have a panoramic view of looking for Mu Zhanxi.

Meng Yinan's face turned red.He quickly sat up, hugged the blanket that was covering his body in a ball, and called Mu Zhanxi across the one and a half person: "Brother, you, why are you sitting here?"

"Can't I sit here?"

Meng Yinan opened his mouth and found that there was no rebuttal, so he said slowly: "...Yes." This was originally Mu Zhanxi's home, and he could sit anywhere he wanted.

Mu Zhanxi seemed to be pleased by his series of actions, and looked at him with great interest. When he found that Meng Yinan was squeezing the blanket in front of him tightly, trying to cover up his impulse in the next second, he said slowly: " I saw you having a nightmare."

I'm having a nightmare, so sit next to me?

What kind of explanation is this... Meng Yinan thought, then you should wake me up.

He was silent for a while, but within a few seconds, Mu Zhanxi sat up slightly: "Did I scare you?"

Meng Yinan said: "...No." In fact, there is a little bit.

"Okay then," Mu Zhanxi raised the corners of his mouth lightly, his smile was fleeting, "I'm sorry for scaring you."

Meng Yinan shook his head and said, "Not at all."

He looked at Mu Zhanxi, and thought that the distance between the two of them exceeded the comfortable social distance, which was too far away, so he moved half of his body with the blanket in his arms, and complained in a low voice: "I said I wasn't scared, brother, why are you so far away?" Don't listen to me."

Only then did Mu Zhanxi stop continuing, and raised his hand to touch Meng Yinan's braid. He seemed to like this action very much, and he pulled the end of the hair out from the neckline with his fingers: "If you say there is no, then there is no."

The meal is ready, it just needs to be warmed up and ready to serve.

Meng Yinan sat at the dining table and waited, lying on the table and looking at his phone.Meng Yinan likes to sit on the second chair outside the dining table because it has a good view and can see the kitchen door.

Of course, his posture on the table with his arms resting on his side is also very good, pretending to be looking at his mobile phone, but in fact he can see Mu Zhanxi just by raising his eyes.

Small animals are very dependent. As long as someone feeds it, within a few days, no matter how fierce the little guy is, he will rub his trousers to seek petting.

It was the same with Meng Yinan - Mu Zhanxi knew he was looking at him.

When Mu Zhanxi put the food on the table, he saw Meng Yinan obediently picked up the chopsticks and said that the food was delicious, thank you brother.She is very obedient and obedient.

Mu Zhanxi himself did not move.

He sighed secretly, looked at Meng Yinan, anticipated what might happen for a while, and waited for the child to look back with questioning eyes, before slowly saying: "Just now, I spoke to your father."

Meng Yinan's movements visibly paused.

Afterwards, Mu Zhanxi saw the well-behaved and obedient child slowly pursing the corners of his mouth. He had an innocent and harmless expression, but within a few seconds he was full of defense.

really.It was the same as the eyes I saw in the rainy night before.

He touched the "reversed scales" of the small animal, and the puppy showed its sharp teeth.
