It was completely dark, Zhou Ziheng held his hand tightly, and walked out of the mint-colored aquarium that once belonged only to them.

The outside of the culvert seemed to have changed, with people coming and going, rubbing shoulders, both of them put on masks and hid in the busy crowd.

"Ask a question." Zhou Ziheng raised his hand and smiled like a child. Xia Xiqing turned to look at him, "Why?"

Zhou Ziheng's eyes were illuminated by the lights on the side of the road, flickering, and there was a firefly in his head, "What can I do during the probationary period?"

The roadside began to become bustling, Xia Xiqing broke free from his hand, looked down at his completely soaked shoes, "I haven't made up my mind yet."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was bumped lightly, "It's okay to hold hands."

Xia Xiqing put his left hand on his right wrist, rubbed his red palm, and spoke slowly, wanting to say but unwilling to say, "... yes."

Just finished speaking and was hit again.

Xia Xiqing frowned and raised his head, facing Zhou Ziheng's deep eyes, eyes that would turn into a crescent moon when he smiled.

"What about kissing?"

His voice was half warm, very soft, as if inviting people to walk through his heart step by step.

"Kissing is fine."

Xia Xiqing stood up a bit, deliberately making a disgusted tone, "I see you, you really want to be on the gossip headlines."

"That's right." Zhou Ziheng took two quick steps to Xia Xiqing's front, turned around to face him and walked backwards step by step, without looking at other places, only staring at Xia Xiqing's beautiful peach blossom eyes, "I can't wait to let you The whole world knows, I'm finally talking about..."

"careful."

An older lady who was pushing a cart to go to the night market passed by and almost bumped into Zhou Ziheng's lower back. Xia Xiqing grabbed Zhou Ziheng's arm and pulled him towards her with quick eyes and quick hands.

The chests of the two were pressed together. Xia Xiqing raised his head and rubbed the tip of his nose against Zhou Ziheng's chin. Fearing that he might not stand still, he reached out and wrapped his arms around his waist.

"...I'm in love." Zhou Ziheng said the last three words in a daze, then lowered his eyebrows and looked at him.

The lights around gradually turned on, and the moment the two of them touched each other, like a slow motion, frame by frame outlined the shape of a hug.

"I want to kiss you." Zhou Ziheng whispered in front of him, the elder sister who was almost bumped into by him before was not ready to give up easily, and had to have some fun with her mouth.

"Oh, you can't look at it. Such a big person is still walking backwards. If you hit my car, let's see what to do."

The eldest sister pushed the car away cursing, Xia Xiqing also came back to his senses, let go of his hand and pushed him away, dragging him to his left, "Look at the road."

"I want to kiss you." Zhou Ziheng leaned over and repeated it with a smile.

here we go again.

It's completely Zhou Ziheng's style to start showing off unrestrainedly after gaining some sweetness.

If you don't give him any color, you really think of him as some kind of innocent little angel.

Xia Xiqing raised his eyes, extended from his pupils downwards, his eyes were glued, and stared at the lips under the black mask for a while, then raised his eyes again, and fixedly looked at Zhou Ziheng's deep pupils, the trembling eyelashes were full of amorous feelings.

After teasing, Xia Xiqing chuckled, put his hands in his trouser pockets and walked forward. Zhou Ziheng, who lost half of his soul at his glance, was left standing in place.

Those eyes are so captivating.

Zhou Ziheng lamented that ten thousand times is not enough.

When he came back to his senses, Zhou Ziheng rushed a few steps in a panic, "Hey, wait for me."

"Wait, what are you doing with such long legs?"

"It was used to chase you."

"nerve."

Zhou Ziheng sent Xiao Luo a message, asking him to deal with Director Kun and Jiang Yin, and he turned off the phone neatly.

The two of them just avoided the wrapping banquet, but they had to eat. Xia Xiqing led Zhou Ziheng to a nearby raw beef noodles. Zhou Ziheng grew up in Beijing, and he didn't eat much authentic rice noodles. A special raw blanched beef powder.

"Boss, two bowls of wide noodles, one bowl not spicy." Xia Xiqing turned to look at Zhou Ziheng, "What do you eat, beef? Kidney?"

"Beef." Zhou Ziheng looked at the plate of beautifully cut meat, touched Xia Xiqing's elbow, and asked in a low voice, "What is kidney?"

Xia Xiqing glanced at him with a smirk, "You don't even know that, Young Master Zhou." After speaking, he poked Zhou Ziheng's side with his finger, leaned close to his ear, and said sinisterly, " kidney."

Zhou Ziheng immediately covered his waist.

Xia Xiqing also intentionally put it vividly, "Take out the fresh kidney and cut it in half, take out the white veins in the middle, use a sharp knife to cut it into thin slices, put it in the boiling soup twice, it is crispy and tender, it is very good eat."

Hearing that, Zhou Ziheng couldn't help shaking, "I want beef, beef."

"Okay." The boss quickly fished out the soft white rice noodles from the broth and put them into a bowl, scooped up the beef soup, marinade, diced green onion and radish, and scalded the fresh beef slices on top of the rice noodles, and handed it to Zhou Ziheng . He made another portion as usual, and poured a large spoonful of spicy brine for Xia Xiqing.

The air conditioner was turned on in the store, and the two sat opposite each other with a bowl of noodles, eating very comfortably.

"When I was in school, my favorite breakfast was beef powder, blanched or stewed beef." Xia Xiqing felt that it was not spicy enough, so he scooped another spoonful of chili oil into a bowl and stirred it. The whole bowl was glowing red, which made Zhou Ziheng feel apprehensive.

"Don't you feel sick to your stomach after eating such spicy food early in the morning?" Zhou Ziheng picked up a chopsticks of noodles and put them into his mouth. It was tender and smooth, and it was delicious.

"It's okay," Xia Xiqing scooped up a spoonful of sour cowpea and put it in Zhou Ziheng's bowl, "We have a lot of breakfast here, and there are no different dishes for 30 days a month, such as hot dry noodles, three fresh bean curds, roasted plums, and noodle nests. , eggnog, the number is too numerous to count.”

"Then you have to invite them all over." Zhou Ziheng took a sip of the soup from the bowl, and smiled at him, like a big dog, clingy and obedient, "Otherwise I will stay in Wuhan and never leave."

"Then don't go, just stay here."

After leaving the noodle shop, the two ate snacks along the night market. Both of them turned off their mobile phones, and neither of them paid any attention to it, just pressing down on the road quietly.

Xia Xiqing has never really been in love with anyone in the past, although he can't say it...

He glanced at Zhou Ziheng beside him.

But he was indeed his first love.

"I don't want to go back to the hotel." Zhou Ziheng held a bunch of water chestnuts in his hand, and bit into one with a crisp sound.

Xia Xiqing recalled the previous scandal, "There should be a lot of reporters staying in front of the hotel right now."

Zhou Ziheng didn't understand why, so he looked sideways at him, "Why?"

"You don't know?" Xia Xi gave him an innocent look, "Now that the scandal between you and Song Nian is raging all over the Internet, you don't know?"

"I was filming all afternoon, and I didn't have the phone with me. After I got the phone, I kept calling you and contacting you." Zhou Ziheng ate the last water chestnut, and continued vaguely, "The phone was turned off later. Now, where can I find out about the scandal."

Xia Xiqing glanced at him angrily, "Then you know now? Zhou Ziheng's first scandal since his debut."

Zhou Ziheng threw the stick in his hand into a trash can not far away, and shamelessly pressed Xia Xiqing's arm, "Isn't my first scandal with you?"

"Get out."

"Don't get lost." Zhou Ziheng put an arm around Xia Xiqing's shoulder, "All self-study girls across the country have to testify to me, and Xia Xiqing is the only person I'm rumored to be."

Sticky. Xia Xiqing glared at him, but didn't speak. Zhou Ziheng touched Xia Xiqing's face with his hand, and sighed, "I don't want to go back, and I don't want to mess with those people."

The alley is coming to an end.

Zhou Ziheng took his hand quietly, "I have been in this circle since I was a child, and I have acted in many plays over the years. People always say that I became famous at a young age and saved a lot of time than others."

"You also lost a lot of time." Xia Xiqing's voice unconsciously softened, and he thought of the projector in Zhou Ziheng's bedroom, and thought of that obedient and soft Zhou Ziheng, so cute. Such a young child plays various roles in the entertainment industry, but luckily he did not lose himself.

And more pure and beautiful than anyone else.

"Time is very precious. It is one-dimensional and one-way. Once it passes, it will never come back." Zhou Ziheng inserted his fingers into Xia Xiqing's and held it firmly, "But if you are here."

"I just wanted to waste time with you."

Xia Xiqing's heart was beating wildly.

"No." Zhou Ziheng suddenly turned his head to look at Xia Xiqing.

"I want to waste everything with you."

The dim and old street lamps shone on the ground, illuminating the long silhouettes of the two people, entangled and cuddling each other. Xia Xiqing looked down and was silent for a long time, as if hesitating for something.

Zhou Ziheng spoke first, "Going back? Are you tired?"

"I'll take you somewhere." Xia Xiqing grabbed him and spoke suddenly.

Zhou Ziheng didn't ask any further questions, and just followed Xia Xiqing back to the empty studio to pick up the car. There was almost no one in the crew, and he was probably still eating. Xia Xiqing opened the car door and got into the driver's seat, "Get in the car."

The black car slipped into the traffic like a fish, hiding the thoughts and secrets of the two in the bustling city.

This is Zhou Ziheng's car, and Xia Xiqing drove it for the first time, and his palms were sticky with sweat. When he waited for the red light, he reached into the storage box on the side of the steering wheel, looking for wet tissues and the like.

"Hey, don't pull it away."

It was too late, Xia Xiqing had already opened the lid, and a lot of cutely packaged candies came out inside, so much that it overflowed, just like popcorn that just popped.

The car was full of sweets, the two of them were startled, looked at each other again, and laughed.

This small storage box is completely my heart. There are so many bits and pieces of sweetness that it will overflow at the touch of a touch, and it can't be contained no matter what.

The scenery outside the car window changed, from a remote bush to a forest of high-rise buildings, and then to a deep and quiet lake. The starlight was crushed and sprinkled on the lake, sparkling. Zhou Ziheng was tired all day, crying and laughing, so tired that he fell asleep.

This is a group of villas built by the lake. It is very quiet. Xia Xiqing drove through the gate and was stopped by the guard. He took off his mask to look, and a security guard who was nearly forty years old came out from inside. He squinted at first. He glanced at Xia Xiqing in the driver's seat, and saw him leaning sideways on the driver's window, smiling and calling Uncle Lin, and the other party recognized him.

"Isn't this Xi Qing? I haven't seen you for many years."

Xia Xiqing smiled, seeing the other party let him go, he only exchanged a few words of pleasantries, and then drove into the community.

In the dream, he felt that someone was patting his face lightly. Zhou Ziheng grabbed that hand and followed his fingers to touch the callus left by his painting. Every time he could recognize it instantly by virtue of the callus.

Xia Xiqing watched him close his eyes, grabbed his hand and put it near his mouth, kissed and kissed again, pinched his chin viciously, and shook it twice, "Still sleeping, if I sleep again, I will **** first and then kill."

"Come here, it's what I wish for." Zhou Ziheng spread his hands, eyes still closed, "It just happened to fulfill my dream of Che Zhen."

Xia Xiqing was about to roll his eyes to the sky, pushed Zhou Ziheng's face, and unbuckled his seat belt, "I thought I was shameless, but I didn't expect you to be so young. Get out of the car!"

Hearing what he said, Zhou Ziheng rubbed his eyes and got out of the car, standing beside the car and stretching. Looking around, in front of him is a three-story single-family villa.

"I thought you took me to elope." Zhou Ziheng looked at the villa, seeing that the light yellow walls didn't look like new, "Could it be that you bought a house for me? You want to support me."

"Good idea." Xia Xiqing took out a bunch of keys from his pocket, searched for the streetlights, and walked towards the gate of the villa with one of them. Zhou Ziheng took it seriously at this moment, it turned out that this villa really belonged to him, "Where is this?"

Xia Xiqing put the key into the door lock with his head down, turned it twice, and pushed the door open. It was dark inside and he couldn't see anything. His footsteps stopped at the edge, motionless.

"What's wrong?"

"This is my former home." Xia Xiqing bowed his head and smiled wryly, "No, it's the place where I lived when I was a child." He took a deep breath and didn't realize that his fingers were trembling.

Zhou Ziheng was stunned.

It turned out that the "one place" that Xia Xiqing casually mentioned was his former home. where he used to live.

It is also the place where he was tortured.

He couldn't help but think of the drunken Xia Xiqing weeping silently in his arms that night.

"You said you don't want to go to a hotel. This house is not bad. It's okay to stay for one night. Anyway, no one has lived in it for more than ten years. I don't know if there is electricity." Stepping forward, I reached out to the side to feel it, and found the light switch. With a snap, the crystal chandelier in the lobby turned on.

"The lights are still on, that's good." Xia Xiqing walked in two steps and found that Zhou Ziheng hadn't followed. He looked back and remembered that he hadn't told Zhou Ziheng about his family background. Maybe even now he thought he was no more than It is a small painter, Xia Xiqing explained with a smile, "I forgot to tell you, my family is in the real estate business, Media Asia Group, you should know. At first I started my home here, and then when the business grew, I went to Beijing…"

After talking for a long time, Zhou Ziheng suddenly held his hand, Xia Xiqing was stunned, and looked up at him.

"Your hands are so cold." Zhou Ziheng rubbed his stiff palm, his deep brows and eyes were full of tenderness, he took a step closer, hugged Xia Xiqing in his arms, and kissed his ear.

"Thank you."

Thanks for your trust.
