Probably because I cried too much the day before, and when I woke up the next day, my head was still heavy, as if I had been beaten by a sack while I was asleep.

So when I came out of the bedroom and saw Zhong Linyun standing by the stove, my first reaction was: "Ah, I'm really dreaming."

Turning left, I went into the bathroom and slapped my face with cold water. When I got up, I found that my eyes were indeed swollen, and my eyelids were blurred a lot.

I applied ice water on a cotton pad and felt that the swelling was not so severe before I went out of the bathroom.

Zhong Linyun stood at the door, like I used to block him when he was injured because he was afraid that he would pass out in the bathroom.

So I bumped into him as soon as I was out the door and was startled.

Zhong Linyun was dressed differently from usual today, white T sports trousers, he looked very much like a school grass senior who would fascinate little girls on the sports field.

Although I am not a little girl, it is obvious that my aesthetics are highly consistent with those of little girls.

So I stared at him patronizingly, giving up thinking about why he was still home at this point.

"Is it better?" Zhong Linyun woke me up from my trance.

There is a good reason for him to ask this, because I cried so much last night that my first reaction after he said that explosive remark was not shock or joy, but blinking twice, and I started to stop crying again. Hold back the tears.

I had a headache from crying, my brain couldn't think clearly and I didn't dare to think about Zhong Linyun's confession. After I woke up, I only felt that my nose and tears were ugly, so I sobbed and said I wanted to rest, and then fled back to the room and closed the door.

Recalling the tragic situation last night, my face turned pale and red again, and for a moment I felt ashamed to face Zhong Linyun, so I just replied sullenly, "Yeah."

At this time, Zhong Linyun's characteristic of being happy and angry saved my thin-skinned life. Although I knew it might be self-deception, I was still very glad that Zhong Linyun didn't show any expressions that made me feel even more ashamed.

"Breakfast?" he asked.

"Ah?" I was taken aback by his sudden change of subject, and immediately answered, "Eat."

I just saw a steaming bowl on the dining table. The rental house is really small, and the distance from the bathroom door to the dining table is only two steps away. I sniffed and smelled the sweet and sour smell of boiled tomatoes.

Walking to the side, a bowl of steaming tomato noodles also confirmed my sense of smell.

There is no doubt about Zhong Linyun's craftsmanship.

I vaguely remember what Zhong Linyun mentioned to me before. His mother is from the north. Before leaving, his family had pasta for three meals a day. He saw it a few times and learned something.

I sat down in front of the noodle bowl, and Zhong Linyun pulled away the chair opposite me.

In fact, I don’t usually have the habit of eating breakfast. I have to control my weight during art test training, and basically eat one meal a day. There is no such thing as breakfast. After I ran away from home, because of my nocturnal work and rest, there was no need to eat breakfast.

Later, because of going out to earn money for photography, Zhong Linyun reminded me a few times that skipping breakfast would cause hypoglycemia, and would leave me bread or steamed buns on the table every day, so I gradually became conscious of eating breakfast.

However, it is the first time I have enjoyed the treatment of having hot noodles early in the morning.

I was so flattered that I bowed my head and slurped the noodles, and I secretly attributed this bowl of hard-won noodles and the confession last night to Zhong Linyun's innate sense of justice to protect the weak.

"Do you want to go for a walk?"

When the noodle bowl was almost empty, Zhong Linyun spoke suddenly.

"Huh?" I swallowed a mouthful of soup, "Where are you going?"

"Walk around casually." Zhong Linyun said in a relaxed tone.

Judging by his tone, he probably wants to go with me.

"You do not need to work today?"

"I asked for leave." Zhong Linyun said lightly, "So you want to go out, come with me."

I buried my head in the bowl, changed my mind, and turned to an unknown place at Eighteenth Bend.

The two go out together...on a date?

I choked suddenly, coughed, and the soup splashed all over my face.

Zhong Linyun took out a few tissues and handed them to me, with an expression of waiting for a response.

I wiped my face indiscriminately, hummed a few times in a vague tone, and I agreed.

The bowl was also washed by Zhong Linyun, and I stood by the side and stared at the falling water like a fool.

Zhong Linyun's movements are very skilled, and people with rich social experience can reveal a capable and mature atmosphere in various small things.

In comparison, the me on the side is more like a goose with its fluff still intact, stupid, not a storm that found a thigh to hug and couldn't even survive the next day.

Zhong Linyun turned the bowl upside down on the drainer, and put the chopsticks on it as well.

"Let's go." He wiped his hands on the rag twice and said to me.

I originally thought that what Zhong Linyun said about walking was simply taking a stroll along the surrounding streets, but who knew that he swept two shared bicycles on the avenue.

"You actually thought of riding a bicycle." I was a little surprised to see Zhong Linyun skillfully adjust the seat.

I knew he could ride, and he used to take me in a bike as a kid, but it still surprised me that he would invite someone to ride with him.

"I often ride when chasing people." Zhong Linyun squatted on the ground and was still adjusting the height of the seats. He adjusted one to be higher and the other to be slightly lower.

"Chasing someone?" I was even more surprised, "Chasing...who?"

"Huh?" Zhong Linyun looked up at me, "It's usually a debtor."

His eyes were innocent, and I was stunned for three seconds before reacting suddenly.

It's not an idol drama chasing people with handsome men and beautiful women under the blue sky and white clouds, but a debt collection by young and Dangerous people in the dark night and wind.

After thinking about this, I somehow found it funny, so I burst into laughter.

Zhong Linyun looked at me laughing silly there, didn't catch the joke, just waited for me to finish laughing in confusion, and asked questions.

"Can you ride?"

"Yes." I said honestly, "but it doesn't ride very well."

Zhong Linyun and I rode bicycles along the street. After 5 minutes, Zhong Linyun realized that my "not so good" was really too modest, and should actually be described as "too bad".

I just crossed two alleys, and I almost shoveled myself under other people's wheels three times with people and cars.

After being horrified and scolded by the third driver, Zhong Linyun had no choice but to ride far away first, and found a car that could take people back.

I happily abandoned my car and sat in the back seat of Zhong Linyun.

After all, we are going to the lake. I am afraid that when I turn a corner and fall into the lake, Zhong Linyun will have to jump into the lake to save others.

The weather in early autumn was very cold, and neither of us really wanted to go into the water.

I skillfully wrapped around Zhong Linyun's waist. He was not riding fast, and his body blocked most of the cold wind. I pulled his coat and fell asleep after a while.

Zhong Linyun didn't speak along the way, I laughed secretly at myself, thinking that what Zhong Linyun said was just a walk, and it was just a single product, without any ambiguous package.

I dozed off in the backseat, and Zhong Linyun stopped riding, only to find that he had finished a lap and stopped beside a small pavilion.

I consciously loosened his waist, got out of the car and walked into the pavilion.

There was an old man selling fish and food outside the kiosk, humming and singing songs he didn’t understand. When he passed by, he glanced at us and thought it wasn’t his customer group, so he wandered away.

Zhong Linyun parked his car on the side of the road and followed me into the pavilion.

I leaned against the railing, absent-mindedly watching the fish swimming in the unclear water.

Zhong Linyun stood beside me, he still didn't speak, and stayed with me silently.

I suddenly feel that Zhong Linyun will be a very reassuring lover in the future. Maybe he will not prepare any surprises, and he will not have too many love words, but he will carry his lover quietly wandering through the noisy city on an important festival. .

His future lover may dislike him for being unromantic, but now I am very fond of it, so I feel very sorry for what I am about to say.

"Thank you for taking me out, I feel much better." I turned around, looked at Zhong Linyun and smiled.

Zhong Linyun was not used to responding to kindness such as thanks, so he just looked away and used the language template to say "um".

I stared at his face, and secretly sighed in my heart, why can there be someone who is completely on my aesthetic point, so handsome that the idea of ​​giving up is constantly shaken.

"What you said yesterday..." So I also lowered my head and stopped looking at him, "I can pretend I didn't hear it."

"Huh?" Now it was Zhong Linyun's turn to be puzzled.

I lowered my head, wrapped my fingers around the sash of the sweater, and continued.

"I can understand what you said before, because I really looked... pitiful last night, and I really needed comfort. Your words comforted me, even if it wasn't sincere... I understand very well, thank you..."

Hearing what I said, Zhong Linyun frowned:

"Seriously."

"No."

I looked up at him and smiled again.

"No need." I said, "I know what kind of person you are, you are very... kind, since you were a child, when you see the kind of worthless and weak people, you will comfort and protect them Yes...you have indeed helped me a lot, whether it was before or now, your kindness is a helping hand to me in a timely manner."

Zhong Linyun frowned even tighter, and he opened his mouth, as if he wanted to refute something.

"But." I didn't give him this chance, and continued on my own, "I can't take what I said last night as before, because it was a very formal sentence, and it can't be taken as comfort. No, it's not..."

"It's not comfort." Zhong Linyun interrupted me.

He looked very serious, and that expression of confrontation with the kitten reappeared.

I like this expression very much, but this expression usually shows that Zhong Linyun is a little angry, at least dissatisfied.

So I smiled at him soothingly and said.

"It was originally, it was a consolation blurted out on impulse... I understand... You see that you have calmed down now, do you still have the urge to say it again?"

I looked up at Zhong Linyun, and the wind from the lake blew some sand and stones. I squinted in the wind, and Zhong Linyun's face gradually blurred.

At that moment, I was a little confused about what answer I wanted to get.

Did I go down the stairs as I wished, or something else...

But I clearly understand that even if Zhong Linyun repeatedly confirmed the answer from last night, I still don't believe it.

I am too sensitive and suspicious. When I want to pursue, I go vigorously, and when I want to go, I shrink back and hide in my shell.

Because I know what kind of person I am, I'm a mess and I don't have any strengths, and I can only hold a pretty face in my whole body.

But the person I like is deaf and blind, and I don't like looking at people's skins.

So my only advantage disappeared, and the "like" he said became more illusory, and I couldn't find a place to stay.

In the end, after much deliberation, I could only define Zhong Linyun as a living Bodhisattva made of mud. He was clearly struggling in the turbulent river, but he still wanted to lower his head to catch my swaying strand of duckweed.

Duckweed is very grateful, but Duckweed doesn't intend to go ashore.

Duckweed was born at the bottom of the river, and it was full of dirty mud. It only secretly wanted to wrap the Bodhisattva tighter, preferably so that he could not go ashore, and completely melted in the rushing river, turning into the mud at the bottom of the ditch, forever. Be with yourself.

So Zhong Linyun's face became more blurred in my eyes, and the wind was still blowing, blowing away his figure little by little. I stared at the sand falling slowly from his body, and my lips squirmed twice.

Get away from me now.

I think.

You still have to cross the river.

But Zhong Linyun didn't go far away, he took a step forward and got closer to me.

He looked down at me and answered my questions with questions.

"Can I kiss you?"

His tone was as calm as usual, as if asking,

Are you going out today?

What's for dinner?

Go out for a walk?

But his decision-making is far more arbitrary than usual.

Without waiting for my answer, Zhong Linyun raised his hand to hold my face, bowed his head and kissed it.
