"It doesn't matter." Xia Chenglang's arms tightly hugged Tang Liuyuan's waist, and when he hit a thunder, he trembled. The more he trembled, the more he felt weak, helpless and pitiful.

Tang Liuyuan patted his shoulder stiffly and comforted him, "The thunder is a little quieter... er... don't be afraid..."

He is not used to comforting people, and he stumbles when he speaks.

Xia Chenglang lingered in Tang Liuyuan's arms for a while, but he didn't stay for too long, he took a step back from Tang Liuyuan's arms reluctantly, "I Not only was I afraid of thunder, but I was also afraid of the dark, and the thunder outside was so loud that I didn’t dare to go home.”

He raised his head and took a sip, to hide the smile that he couldn't hide.

Tang Liuyuan opened his mouth, but before he could speak, the phone dinged, he looked down, it was Tang Qiyuan's message, Tang Qiyuan said it was because of the rain outside Big, so I want to stay at Sheng Cen's house today, let him not worry.

"...So can I stay with you tonight?" Xia Chenglang didn't notice Tang Liuyuan's frowning, and continued with the words just now.

Tang Liuyuan raised her head in surprise from her phone, "Do you want to stay?"

He frowned slightly, it was getting dark outside, it was really unsafe for Xia Chenglang to go home at this time, but he and Xia Chenglang only met after all, and the process of getting to know them was not pleasant. It was somewhat inconvenient for Xia Chenglang to live here.

"Hmm." Xia Chenglang glanced at the thunder and lightning weather outside, and said, "It's dark and thunderous outside, it's not safe for me to go back now..."

Tang Liuyuan glanced downstairs, the ground was full of water, the sky was full of lightning, the lights on the side of the road were dim, and there was no pedestrian on the road. In this case, he did There was no way to make Xia Chenglang leave. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded absently, "Okay."

After he finished speaking, he anxiously dialed Tang Qiyuan's number, Tang Qiyuan was Omega, Sheng Cen was Alpha, Tang Qiyuan lived in Sheng Cen's house like this, he was a little worried.

Tang Qiyuan quickly picked up the phone, her voice was pleasant, and it sounded no different from usual, "Brother."

"You send me the address of Sheng Cen's house and I'll pick you up."

Xia Chenglang couldn't help raising his head when he heard Tang Liuyuan's words, before Tang Qiyuan on the phone had time to speak, he couldn't help but disagree: "It's still thundering outside, you go out now Too dangerous."

Tang Qiyuan also said eagerly, "Brother, don't come out, it's dangerous, I'll stay here tonight."

Tang Liuyuan categorically refused, "No."

Since his parents let Tang Qiyuan live with him, he should take good care of Tang Qiyuan as a big brother. If something happened to Tang Qiyuan at Sheng Cen tonight, he would be to blame .

Tang Qiyuan has always listened to Tang Liuyuan's words, and when he heard his tone, he quickly said: "Then I'll go back by myself, brother, don't come here, the book says that thunderstorms are very bad outdoors. Dangerous, I've read books on safety knowledge..."

Before he could finish speaking, the phone was snatched by Sheng Cen, Sheng Cen said in a low voice: "Xiao Qi won't go home tonight."

"Talk to Xiaoqi's brother well!" A woman's voice came from the phone, and it seemed that she patted Sheng Cen's head, and then snatched the phone over with a gentle and kind voice, " Hello Liuyuan, I'm Sheng Cen's mother."

Tang Liuyuan was stunned when she heard her voice, and then said respectfully, "Hello, Madam."

Sheng Cen's mother is naturally the queen of the current empire.

Queen Xia smiled and said: "Xiao Cen and Xiao Qi are staying with me tonight, you can let Xiao Qi stay, you can rest assured with me, nothing will happen. "

Tang Liuyuan thought about it for a while, and then agreed. Since Tang Qiyuan is with Queen Xia, there should be no problem. Queen Xia has always been gentle and kind, and she is very kind to the younger generation. it is good.

Xia Chenglang heard Tang Liuyuan's address and answered the phone, "Aunt?"

Tang Liuyuan stepped aside, handed over the phone to him, sat on the sofa and took a drink.

After hanging up the phone, Xia Chenglang's expression darkened, and the smile on his face disappeared instantly. He picked up his mobile phone, lowered his head and searched the web page for a while, a gloomy color flashed in his eyes.

He looked like a different person, Tang Liuyuan put down the water glass and asked in a low voice, "What happened?"

Xia Chenglang sneered, raised his hand and shook his phone, "No wonder cousin is going to my aunt's place today. It turns out that His Majesty the Emperor took his little lover abroad to play."

Tang Liuyuan fixed her eyes on the phone. On the web interface, there was a photo of the emperor holding Mrs. Zhenwei's hand to board the plane, which should have been taken by a reporter.

Now that the Xia family is getting weaker, the emperor often leads Madam Zhenwei to swagger everywhere. They should do this to prepare for their son Sheng Lian, even if Madam Zhenwei and Sheng Lian have not The official status also made everyone gradually accept their existence. As for the Xia family and the queen, the emperor's approach was tantamount to ignoring their faces.

Tang Liuyuan had heard some of these things, he quietly glanced at his phone, then raised his head to look at Xia Chenglang, the current Xia Chenglang is very different from the previous him, his expression was less cynical, A little more gloom.

He didn't know how to comfort him, so he was silent for a while, and then he said: "...There is no mask at home, but there are cucumbers. I heard that cucumber slices can also be used for beauty."

Xia Chenglang was stunned for a moment, and when he reacted, he almost laughed out loud. The gloomy air just now disappeared completely. He put down his phone and looked up at Tang Liuyuan. Smile, "Okay."

Ten minutes later, Tang Liuyuan cut a small plate of cucumber slices and brought it over to Xia Chenglang.

Xia Chenglang did not take the cucumber slices, but raised his head with a clean face, "There is no mirror here, you can post it for me."

Tang Liuyuan thought about it for a while, there really is no such thing as a makeup mirror at home, so she nodded, walked over, stood on the ground with one leg and propped the other on the sofa, stretched out her hand to lift Xia Chenglang chin, holding cucumber slices and pasting them one by one.

Xia Chenglang's skin is very good, without the common acne in this age group, it feels smooth and delicate, Tang Liuyuan asked him while sticking cucumber slices, "Do you often wear a mask?"

"Yeah." Xia Chenglang nodded his conscience, if clear water counts as a mask, then he really wears a mask every day.

Tang Liuyuan nodded and put another piece of cucumber on his forehead.

The cucumber was just taken out of the refrigerator, and it was cool and refreshing on Xia Chenglang's face, very comfortable.

He looked up at Tang Liuyuan, Tang Liuyuan frowned slightly, and pursed his rosy lips lightly, he was obviously sticking cucumber slices for him, but he looked like when he was reading a book just now Just as seriously.

Xia Chenglang's eyes swayed, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curved into a gentle arc.

Tang Liuyuan looked at his funny appearance, couldn't help but slightly hooked the corner of his mouth and smiled lightly, the curvature of the corner of his mouth was very small, but his whole face was like melting ice and snow , moving people.

Xia Chenglang looked at his smile for a while, blinked slightly, and said softly, "Smile more in the future."

Tang Liuyuan converges her lips, "Why?"

"It looks good." Xia Chenglang smiled hard with the cucumber slices on his face, "Because you look good when you smile."

Tang Liuyuan glanced at him lightly, did not answer his words, raised her hand to help him put the cucumber slices on his face again, clapped his hands, "Okay."

Xia Chenglang reached out and pressed the cucumber slices on his face. This was the first time in his life that he applied a pure natural cucumber mask, and he felt a little fresh.

Tang Liuyuan glanced at him, put away the plate with the cucumber slices just now, and warned, "Don't mess around this time."

Tang Liuyuan came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, and saw Xia Chenglang leaning in front of him with a raised face, "You touch it, is it much smoother?"

Tang Liuyuan was slightly stunned, looking at Xia Chenglang's skin that was close at hand, but did not move.

"You touch, you touch." Xia Chenglang grabbed his hand and put it on his face, "How is it? Is it slippery?"

Tang Liuyuan's fingers touched his skin and curled up slightly, "...Slippery."

Xia Chenglang raised his smile with satisfaction and patted his cheek, "Next time I'll stick cucumber slices for you too."

"No need." Tang Liuyuan wiped the water from her hair with a towel and asked, "When do you usually go to bed?"

Xia Chenglang glanced at the clock, "I can do whatever you want. By the way, where do I sleep tonight?"

"My room."

"Ah?" Xia Chenglang was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the direction of Tang Liuyuan's room, his voice became a little subtle, "You asked me to sleep in your room?"

Tang Liuyuan nodded disapprovingly, "There are only two rooms here, my brother's room, I can't sleep for you privately, you will spend one night with me. Let's get a bed, anyway, we're all boys, and we're all Omegas, so it doesn't matter if we live together."

There are many children in his family, and his brothers and sisters are tired from playing and often sleep together, so he doesn't think it's any strange.

Xia Chenglang didn't know whether to be happy or depressed for a while. After some psychological struggle, he patted the sofa and said, "I'll just sleep on the sofa."

He is an Alpha after all, although he really wants to get close to Tang Liuyuan, he is not that jerk.

"Can you do it?" Tang Liuyuan looked at Xia Chenglang's height, and then looked at the length of the sofa. The sofa seemed to be a little smaller, and Xia Chenglang might not be able to stretch his legs when he lay on it.

Xia Chenglang nodded and tried to show that he liked the sofa, "I also like to sleep on the sofa when I'm at home."

Tang Liuyuan didn't object this time. She went into the room and gave him a quilt and a pillow.

Xia Chenglang put the pillow on the sofa and put the quilt on his body. The soft quilt had a faint scent of tea, he picked up the quilt and sniffed carefully, "Your message Is it the scent of tea?"

?"

Xia Chenglang hurriedly shook his head, hugging the quilt and refusing to let go, "No, I like it very much...it smells good..."

When he said the last sentence, the tip of his tongue rose slightly, and he said something ambiguous.

Tang Liuyuan's ears finally turned a little crimson this time, she nodded hastily, and walked back to her room.

Xia Chenglang raised the corners of his mouth happily, lay down on the sofa, he was quiet for a while, and couldn't help reminding Tang Liuyuan, "Even if you bring someone home in the future, you can't let him and you Sleeping together, especially someone like me who has only known you for a few days, who knows what bad thoughts are in their hearts."

Tang Liuyuan was a little surprised. After thinking about it for a while, she felt that he was right, so she nodded seriously, "You are right, then I'll lock the door."

"Eh? No..." Xia Chenglang sat up from the sofa, and before he could finish his words, Tang Liuyuan had already closed the door, and locked the door with a click.

"Hey..." Xia Chenglang rubbed his hair angrily and threw himself onto the sofa.
