When I woke up the next day, it was already ten o'clock at noon.

After Xie Zhu opened his eyes, Mi Mi stared for a while.

This was probably the most comfortable night he had slept in in the past three years.

I didn't have any dreams, and I didn't wake up once, just slept for ten hours.

The fever had undoubtedly gone away, the aches in the limbs, the aches in the head, and the discomfort in the stomach were all gone.

Adequate sleep can restore the body to its healthiest state.

Xie Zhu was trapped in the soft quilt, feeling all the bones in his body were so relaxed, he didn't even want to open his eyelids in a daze.

But soon, he heard a slight sound of walking through a door.

...the memory comes back in an instant.

Thinking of what happened yesterday, Xie Zhu opened his eyes suddenly, his heart skipped a beat, and he swallowed.

...Then, he turned over and lay on the side where Qi Lan slept last night.

A few seconds of silence.

He hugged the quilt tightly and rolled back and forth several times before sitting up with his messy hair.

A face flushed, full of embarrassment.

Qi Lan was cooking porridge in the kitchen.

When he heard the sound of footsteps, he also noticed an arm stretching out from behind that wanted to hug him out of the corner of his eye.

Qi Lan was immediately happy: "If you want to hug, you can hug. Are you embarrassed to hug your own boyfriend?"

Xie Zhu was startled, and immediately retracted his paw.

Qi Lan raised her lips, turned sideways, raised her arms, hooked Xie Zhu's shoulders, and pulled him over.

I don't know if it's because of a serious illness, but Qi Lan always feels that Xie Zhu seems to have lost a lot of weight, that little face is almost out of shape.

He said angrily, "I have to make up for you later."

He had to make up for that bit of meat.

Xie Zhu lowered his head in embarrassment, and mumbled to find something to say: "...you can cook porridge."

"I can still cook the eight major cuisines, all of which I taught myself in college," Qi Lan snorted, "I'll show you my skills tonight?"

Xie Zhu nodded quickly, and secretly laughed at Qi Lan's boastful tone.

The porridge was almost ready, Qi Lan turned off the fire, Xie Zhu helped out two bowls and brought them to the living room.

When the two sat face to face at the dining table in the living room, Xie Zhu was in a trance again.

It's been a long time since I had breakfast with others.

He glanced out the window.

It rained heavily yesterday, and it finally cleared up today.

The sun was shining brightly and there were no clouds in the sky. It was really autumnal.

Xie Zhu's heart seemed to be warmed by the brilliant morning light.

His eyes returned to Qi Lan who was sitting opposite him.

Qi Lan noticed his gaze and raised her head involuntarily.

And Xie Zhu frowned at him, and smiled obediently.

Qi Lan: "?!"

He almost dropped the spoon, implicitly warning: "Little pig, you'd better not seduce me early in the morning."

Xie Zhu quickly turned his face back, question marks all over his head: "? How can I have it???"

"You had a very seductive smile just now." Qi Lan licked her lips.

"?!" Xie Zhu blushed, and said in embarrassment, "How could I! I just smiled very ordinaryly!"

"You're not in my perspective, you don't understand, you just smiled so sweetly—"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhh, shut up, eat breakfast and stop talking!!!"

After a lively breakfast, Xie Zhu was driven by Qi Lan to play by himself, preventing him from rushing to wash the dishes.

Qi Lan spoke very righteously, Xie Zhu had just recovered from a serious illness, what kind of work would he do, if he really wanted to share the housework, that would have to wait until he recovered.

Xie Zhu couldn't resist him, so he could only step on his slippers and run to the balcony to collect the clothes he forgot to pack last night.

The balcony is located in the master bedroom, which is the room where his parents used to sleep.

Xie Zhu folded his clothes, and when he picked them up, Qi Lan had already cleaned up the kitchen and was leaning against the door looking at him.

The room is very tidy.

Even though no one has lived in it for three years, the sheets and quilts have always been laid there, and the floor of the room is spotless, as if every night, someone will still step into this room to rest, and leave home in the morning.

Xie Zhu came out, Qi Lan glanced at this empty room, but it was always full of the taste of home, smiled, and closed the door for him.

Today is a weekend, Qi Lan has no class, and plans to go back to school later to pick up things.

So after lunch, the two of them reclined on the sofa, Qi Lan played with his mobile phone, Xie Zhu drew on the drawing board, the two of them went about their own business, chatting from time to time, the atmosphere was warm.

"What are you drawing?" Qi Lan was halfway through the game, glanced at Xie Zhu's drawing board, and always felt that the characters on it looked familiar.

Xie Zhu's first reaction was to cover the drawing board, and when Qi Lan narrowed his eyes with a dissatisfied expression, he moved his hand away with a smirk.

Qi Lan took a closer look at the cartoon character on the drawing board. He looked familiar, but he just couldn't remember where he had seen it.

Xie Zhu saw that his brows were tightly frowned, and he was serious about remembering, bent his lips, and said: "I'll tell you, but you are not allowed to laugh at me."

Xie Zhu took out his phone embarrassingly, and told Qi Lan his Weibo account.

And when Qi Lan saw Xie Zhu's first comic, he was shocked.

Xie Zhu's talent for painting was revealed when he was a student. In the first year of high school and art class, Xie Zhu's homework was always the most eye-catching one in the class. When the sense of presence is strongest.

Qi Lan once asked Xie Zhu if he wanted to become a painter or cartoonist in the future.

But at that moment Xie Zhu lowered his head and thought for a while, and replied with a smile, I'm not that good.

Today, however, the characters he draws are lifelike and the stories are touching.

In the past six years, his painting skills have not deteriorated in the slightest, but have been astonishingly improved. This is enough to represent that for so many years, he has never really let go of his dream of painting.

"So what did you think before, that you didn't concentrate on painting, but instead worked in that kind of messy company?" Qi Lan couldn't help asking while looking at Xie Zhu's cartoons.

Xie Zhu had just complained to him about the bad things about the last company he worked for.

Xie Zhu's mental state has been getting worse and worse recently, which has something to do with the company's poor interpersonal relationship and working environment.

"I used to think that I didn't have the ability."

Xie Zhu was sitting while Qi Lan was lying with her legs bent.

Qi Lan is very tall, 1.8 meters - nine, lying there like a male model, Xie Zhu even felt that the small sofa in his home could hardly fit him so big and tall.

However, even though he was lying so aggrieved, Bala still looked as good as a painting.

Xie Zhu traced Qi Lan's eyebrows and eyes with his eyes, and said softly: "Actually..."

After he uttered two words, Qi Lan raised his eyes and waited suspiciously for his next words.

Xie Zhu suddenly didn't know what to say.

He turned around, picked the sofa twice with his fingers, and said with a downcast smile: "Actually, I didn't dare to do many things, but you said I could do it, so I tried to do it, only to realize, ah, it turns out I can really do it."

When he was just in high school, he was extremely cowardly.

The elders might not realize this, and Xie Zhu didn't dare to say it, but he was indeed so cowardly that he was found at the gate of the high school by those hooligans in the junior high school, and he didn't know how to resist.

The word "just" doesn't seem to exist in his genes.

It wasn't until Qi Lan appeared in front of him, with a strong posture and a strong tone, reminded him that he could say "no" loudly to things and people he didn't like, Xie Zhu mustered up his courage for the first time, "Just" up.

Thinking about it carefully, it was only then that he slowly changed.

Of course, until today, it is impossible for Xie Zhu to completely become a tough person like Qi Lan and Wu Yang, but because of Qi Lan, many good changes have indeed taken place in him.

And he would pick up the paintbrush again in the dazed time after he resigned. It may be because he still remembers Qi Lan's reaction after hearing him say "I'm not that good" in high school that year. .

At that time, Qi Lan raised his eyebrows and said slowly——

I'm a person who can't do anything, and I still feel that I am the best in the world all day long. You are such a powerful guy, why do you want to belittle yourself so much?

Thinking of this, Xie Zhu laughed.

He turned his head to look at Qi Lan, smiled and said obediently: "Look, until now, what you said is still affecting me. It's you who made me feel that I can do those things."

Qi Lan used to be his lighthouse.

For a moment he thought that perhaps the old lighthouse would only ever flicker in his memory.

But now, that old lighthouse jumped out of his childhood dream and became his eternal North Star.

Xie Zhu said softly: "Thank you, Qi Lan."

Qi Lan stared at him, put down her phone, took his hand, and pulled him into her arms.

He held Xie Zhu in his arms, rubbed Xie Zhu's head, and said in a low voice: "You remember when I was in high school, it was in the third year of high school that I started to study seriously?"

"Well," Xie Zhu thought of this, and couldn't help but say, "You are obviously very talented in learning, why didn't you start learning earlier."

If he had started earlier, Qi Lan would definitely have been admitted to a better undergraduate course.

Of course, he has become quite remarkable now.

"I don't like studying, what's the point of studying," Qi Lan lazily said, "But when I was in the third year of high school, I don't know when, my mind suddenly turned around, and I felt that if I don't study hard, I will wait until the end of the college entrance examination. , go our separate ways, and the gap between you and me will become wider and wider."

Xie Zhu was taken aback: "...is... because of me?"

"Yes," Qi Lan pinched the ends of his hair, and said with a smile, "I've been sitting at your back table for three years, and I've seen the back of you studying hard for three full years, no matter what, it should have some positive influence, right? ?”

A strange feeling suddenly rose in Xie Zhu's heart, maybe it was a mixture of surprise and sweetness.

"So, the two of us have been influencing each other," Qi Lan joked, "This is probably a natural pair?"

Xie Zhu was coaxed into laughter by his lack of seriousness.

He lay on Qi Lan's chest, the corners of his mouth couldn't be put down.

Qi Lan gently stroked his back, also smiling.

"Hey, little piggy, are you going to draw your story according to our story, or do you want to recreate it?"

"do not know yet."

"Tsk, okay, anyway, just remember to draw me so handsome all the time."

Xie Zhu couldn't hold back and punched him, complaining: "Can you stop being so narcissistic?"

"Is this my narcissism? Your fans also say that Gong is very handsome," Qi Lan said shamelessly, with a half-smile, "By the way, you can draw clearly."

Xie Zhu froze, blushed immediately, and jumped up: "You are the only one who knows how to attack and suffer! You are the only one who knows!"

Qi Lan laughed to death.

……

The two chatted about more things later.

Qi Lan said that this winter solstice, when Xie Zhu went to visit the grave, remember to take him with him.

Now that the two are dating, he has to meet the two elders anyway, not to mention, he would never let Xie Zhu do many things alone.

Xie Zhu also fully supports Xie Zhu's decision to draw comics at home full-time.

It is true that it may not be successful, but Xie Zhu is still young, and he can make various attempts.

However, comics can be drawn with confidence and boldness, but one must take good care of one's health.

Qi Lan stared at Xie Zhu, and just stared at him to make an appointment for the expert number next Monday.

"This time I have to do a gastroscopy. Don't be afraid. I will definitely accompany you there. There will be no risk of anesthesia, and you won't die. You will wake up properly and go home with me." Qi Lan Holding Xie Zhu from behind, he said seriously.

Xie Zhu swallowed, nodded, thinking about the endoscopy under general anesthesia, he still tensed up nervously.

Seeing his appearance, Qi Lan joked, "How timid."

Xie Zhu puffed up his face.

Qi Lan smiled sullenly, and kissed his forehead: "Our little pigs are so cute."

"You coax the child." Xie Zhu muttered.

Qi Lan couldn't stop laughing.

After laughing, he rubbed his chin against Xie Zhu's head, and suddenly asked softly, "Do you want to make another appointment for psychological consultation?"

Xie Zhu paused.

Qi Lan played with his fingers, with a gentle and long tone: "I don't force you, it depends on whether you need it or not, it's not a big deal, it's just that there are often things that you can't figure out and things that are stuck in your heart, in fact, talk to the doctor Enough."

"Anyway, it's still the same sentence, no matter what, I will be with you."

Xie Zhu's heart was numb.

He was silent for a long time, then nodded.

Qi Lan tilted her head to look at him.

Xie Zhu pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "Well, then, let's try it."

In the afternoon, Xie Zhu went to bed and slept for a while.

When he was drowsily asleep, he felt Qi Lan enter the room, kissed him, and said in a low voice: "Then I'll go back to school, and I'll be back soon."

Xie Zhu nodded sleepily, and soon lost consciousness again.

When I woke up again, it was already two hours later.

The phone vibrated intermittently, not like a phone call, but more like a continuous stream of messages pouring in.

Xie Zhu rubbed his eyes, dazedly took a look at the phone from the bedside table.

Immediately, it was like being struck by lightning, the drowsiness flew away, and everyone was stupid.

Lao Wen, He Jiawei, as well as his tablemate and English class representative who had a good relationship with him in high school, were all chatting with him privately, asking him what was going on with Qi Lan.

Xie Zhu unlocked it and clicked into the class group to see what good deed Qi Lan did while he was asleep!

After this guy pissed off people in the group yesterday, the class group quarreled for a few more words before quieting down.

In fact, it is just like what Teacher Zhang said, how can there be forty or fifty people in a class, how can everyone get along well.

Some people think that Qi Lan has a big temper, and it is worth getting angry about this little thing.

Some people think that the guy who gave Qi Lan's mobile phone number to other girls without authorization is mentally ill, and he deserves to be scolded by Qi Lan.

The plastic classmate friendship was originally broken, and the atmosphere in the group became very weird.

But one day later, a few normal old classmates felt that the guy who gave Qi Lan's mobile phone number without authorization was sick, but why did they abandon the group because of him?

So this afternoon, someone chatted in the group again, and someone gossiped about asking what kind of person Qi Lan fell in love with, but it looked like he hadn't caught up yet.

There are people in this world who Qi Lan can't catch up with?

Qi Lan appeared.

Everyone can see that he is in a good mood today.

He pretended to be mysterious and said: "I have caught up with you, and you all know him."

As soon as these words came out, several classmates were itchy by him, and desperately asked who it was.

However, Lao Wen suddenly asked in a strange tone: "...your avatar...?"

Then everyone discovered that Qi Lan's new avatar changed today...

...that was the sleeping face of a boy.

...It was a very cute sleeping face with flushed cheeks.

...that was a sleeping face that was clearly photographed secretly by the camera zoomed in.

……That……

... Isn't that Xie Zhu? ! !

In an instant, no one in the group spoke again, but this time everyone was not embarrassed by the atmosphere, but was stunned by the shock.

Hence the present scene.

——Xie Zhu's private chat is almost bursting!

Several guys who are familiar with him are all asking how he and Qi Lan are!

Xie Zhu replied in a hurry, and then took a screenshot to question Qi Lan: "??? [Picture]"

Xie Zhu: "What are you doing!!!"

Soon, Qi Lan replied to him: "[Picture]"

It was a selfie of Qi Lan in the sun, very handsome and handsome.

Xie Zhu: "????"

Qi Lan: "Use it as an avatar."

Qi Lan: "Couple profile picture get√"

Xie Zhu... Xie Zhu felt that Qi Lan was stupid, he was absolutely stupid! !

He wasn't angry either, he just couldn't keep up with Qi Lan's rhythm, and felt a little shocked!

He stared at the selfie sent by Qi Lan angrily and amusedly, and asked, "...Aren't you afraid that Lao Wen won't accept it?"

Qi Lan: "If they were that kind of people, they wouldn't be my brothers."

Xie Zhu was startled.

Qi Lan: "Don't worry, what's more, one day we will invite them to dinner, this cabinet will always be released."

"As for the group, let them know that we are together, won't it save people from messing around?"

Xie Zhu's heart moved slightly.

He understood Qi Lan's intention.

In fact, in the final analysis, he himself is a transparent person in the class, and Qi Lan is the one who is popular. Today, Qi Lan came out openly, and what blocked his rotten peach blossoms was Xie Zhu's heart.

Xie Zhu pursed his lips, feeling warm in his heart.

but……

He asked again suspiciously: "Why did you invite Lao Wen and the others to dinner?"

It wasn't that he was stingy and didn't want to treat guests, it was just that he was a little confused by this statement.

Regarding this question, Qi Lan answered very cheaply.

Qi Lan: "As a married couple, shouldn't we care about the miserable single dogs in society?"

Xie Zhu was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing.

Through the screen, he could imagine Qi Lan's tugging appearance.

If Lao Wen and the others saw this, they would be so angry again.

Qi Lan said it's okay, but I'll see you on the basketball court to see who abuses whom.

Xie Zhu said don't set up such a flag, be careful that the car will overturn one day.

Qi Lan asked again, still don't believe you keep attacking me?

Xie Zhu couldn't stand him!

The two laughed again, Qi Lan said he would be back soon, Xie Zhu obediently said hello.

He always has a smile on his face.

Putting down his phone and getting out of bed, he walked to the window, opened the curtains, and stretched.

Twilight is approaching, and the sky looks high and far away.

Xie Zhu opened the window a little more.

The slightly cool wind poured in, bringing with it a fresh smell.

He took a deep breath.

Something that had been smothered in his chest for a long time finally left his body along with this slow exhalation.

Instead, a refreshing, energetic breath flowed into his blood, rushing towards his limbs.

Today is a good day.

Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow...

From now on, it should get better day by day.

Xie Zhu thought about this in a daze, and the appearance of his parents appeared in his mind.

Only this time when he recalled them again, there was no longer only pain and depression in his heart.

These gray emotions seemed to have finally been washed away, and what remained in his heart was only the warmth that all these things had brought him.

Xie Zhu looked into the distance and smiled silently.

For a moment, a thought flashed through his mind.

Xie Zhu thought for a while, closed the window, and walked to the closet.

After Qi Lan finished making jokes with Lao Wen and the others on WeChat, she happened to arrive downstairs at the unit.

Xie Zhu had already told him the password to open the door of the unit. After Qi Lan opened the door, he bumped into the hostess of the resident on the first floor.

The other party greeted naturally: "Are you here again today?"

Qi Lan laughed and said, "I will live here from now on, Auntie."

The aunt was stunned, and said in surprise: "Oh, so, hey, you and that boy from 302 are..."

"We are high school classmates," Qi Lan paused, then raised his lips and said, "But it's not just high school classmates."

The auntie came to her senses, but she didn't understand the second half of Qi Lan's words, she just suddenly realized: "So that's the case, you are high school classmates, no wonder... Whether it's good or bad, it's a bit of a smoke when two people live together, now Young people often engage in shared renting, and you happen to be classmates in high school, which is quite convenient..."

Hearing what the other party said, Qi Lan didn't break it.

He smiled and nodded with the aunt, then walked upstairs.

They are high school classmates.

But it's not just high school classmates.

More than just friends.

In the future, naturally they are not just lovers.

Qi Lan stepped up the steps step by step, turned around the corner of the stairs, and continued to go up, listening to the sound of her own footsteps.

Walking to the third floor, he opened the door with the key.

When he raised his eyelids and saw the figure coming out of the room, he froze in place, his pupils constricted suddenly.

Xie Zhu was wearing a one-shoulder shirt dress.

The shirt skirt looks light and fluffy, the skirt only reaches the middle of the thigh, and then down, there are two thin and long legs.

Although it is a man's body, I don't find it strange, and it can even be said that it is very beautiful.

Xie Zhu didn't wear a wig or make-up, so he faced Qi Lan with his most authentic self, blushing, and said softly and obediently: "You're back."

Qi Lan heard her own heartbeat.

His Adam's apple rolled down, he stared at Xie Zhu who looked like this, and laughed hoarsely: "...dressed like this to meet me? Is this some kind of reward?"

Xie Zhu put his hands behind his back, looking very embarrassed.

He lowered his head and whispered, "From today onwards, I plan to let you know all aspects of me slowly."

"It started with me who likes to wear women's clothes," Xie Zhu said, then raised his head again, and asked with a blushing face, "...do you like it?"

Soft tone, with a little expectation and temptation.

Especially attractive.

Qi Lan felt that she was going crazy.

His breath was drawn and his throat felt dry.

After changing his shoes and walking in, he put down all the things in his hands and walked in front of Xie Zhu.

"I like it." He lowered his head to kiss Xie Zhu's lips, stared deeply at this person, and murmured hoarsely, "Little Zhuzi, I like everything about you."

When Xie Zhu heard this, he laughed, hooked Qi Lan's neck, raised his head, and greeted the kiss.

In the future, not only lovers.

But for now, let's start with the lovers.

The author has something to say:
