"Wow, Ogihua, you're so good at your craft. The cooking was as good as my mother's. Lu Chen excitedly praised Dihua's craftsmanship, and filled himself with another bowl of rice, which was already the third bowl he had eaten since just now.

"Really?" Ogika sneered at the way the wind swept away and ate violently, "Then are you so fierce when you eat at home?!" ”

"Huh? Ha ha. Lu Chen embarrassedly slowed down the speed of picking up rice in his mouth, "The main reason is that I haven't tasted a familiar taste for a long time." After speaking, he turned his head to look at Qian Duoduo beside him.

Qian Duoduo held chopsticks in his hand and looked at the rice bowl in a daze, and the bowl full of rice barely moved a single chopstick.

"Toto?" Lu Chen called lightly, and seeing that the other party did not react, he stretched out his hand and patted the other party's shoulder.

"Huh? What's wrong? Qian Duoduo, who reacted, shook his body and raised his head to look at the other party, but he quickly lowered his head when he remembered something.

"What's wrong with you?" Lu Chen asked inexplicably with concern, "You have been stunned since the beginning, and you don't seem to have moved a mouthful of food." ”

"I'm nothing," the other party got up from his chair and walked towards the place where the kettle was placed, "You guys eat, my appetite hurts a little, and I'm too lazy to eat." ”

"Oh, then you can drink more hot water and get some sleep." Lu Chen cared, and then lowered his head again to eat.

After sending the other party home this time, he didn't see anyone waiting for him to return home as he used to be. After locking the courtyard door and entering the house, Qian Duoduo shrunk in the quilt as if he was asleep.

"Toto?" Lu Chen shouted softly.

No one took care of him, and the person on the bed didn't move, he sighed lightly, changed his clothes and climbed into bed, hugged each other tightly through the quilt and closed his eyes.

When I went out during the day, I still heard those aunts chatting about Lu Chen and Dihua's gossip, one of the curly-haired aunts grabbed the money that passed by, and asked directly regardless of the other party's face, "I heard that Dihua, who bought steamed buns on the street, is now eating at your house every day?" Is that Lu Chen having a relationship with her? ”

Returning home in a depressed mood, Qian Duoduo looked at the leeks that were cleaned up during the day yesterday and prepared to make dumplings today, the anger in his heart ignited again, and he raised his foot and stepped hard to turn the bundle of emerald green and fresh leeks into a puddle of black-green mud.

On this day, Lu Chen went home a little later than usual, and when he came home, he didn't pay much as expected, he came back with Dihua, Dihua was still carrying an aluminum lunch box in her hand, and she didn't have to think about it, she knew that it was the meal she cooked for Lu Chen again.

The two walked into the house, the room was dim and there was no light, and Qian Duoduo was lying under the covers with his back to the door. Seeing this scene, Lu Chen was stunned at first, then turned on the chandelier and walked to the side of the bed and leaned down to check the other party's situation.

"Hey, what's wrong with you, Duoduo?" Lu Chen's anxious voice was full of concern, Qian Duoduo, who was pretending to sleep with his eyes closed, couldn't help but twitch in his heart, his heart hurt inexplicably, and he was almost about to cry out in pain.

"Didn't he say he had a stomach ache yesterday?" Ogihua, who was setting the food on the side, also looked concerned, "It shouldn't be okay yet, right?!" Do I want to boil the pot of ginger syrup for him? ”

"Oh, yes, how did I forget this hand." Hearing the other party's suggestion, Lu Chen's voice obviously had a tone of sudden realization. "I'm sorry for you, Ogihua."

"What's this, I'll definitely help with what you please."

Dihua replied crisply, and the kitchen in the courtyard sounded the sound of banging and spatular, Qian Duoduo's heart hurt even more, he got up and staggered to the table, picked up the boiled water and poured it into his stomach. Lu Chen, who was waiting for the other party to boil ginger syrup at the door, saw his lover get up in a blink of an eye, and hurriedly ran over to support the other party.

"Why are you up? Is the stomach pain gone, Dihua will make you ginger syrup, and you can drink it in a while. Lu Chen helped the other party back to the bed with concern, and covered the quilt.

"I'm fine, I want to sleep, tell her not to bother." Although the psychology was uncomfortable and awkward, he still endured his temper and covered his head with the quilt.

"I've got it, what's going on with him?" Dihua carried the boiled ginger syrup into the house, the brown sugar seemed to be a little too much, and the water in the bowl showed the black and red color of a traditional Chinese medicine.

"He just fell asleep." Lu Chen patted the other party's body through the quilt again, and after making sure that the other party was asleep, he walked to the dining table and opened the lunch box that the other party had brought.

Soon, the hearty laughter of two people sounded in the room, and Lu Chen and Dihua talked happily, completely forgetting the lovers who were hiding in the quilt and crying secretly.

It was late at night, the chandelier was off, the room was dark, Lu Chen turned over in his sleep, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to hug his lover beside him. But I didn't want to, this time the outstretched hand was empty, and the empty people around me had long since disappeared.

Lu Chen opened his eyes in a daze and touched the bed beside him again in the dark, there was really no one, he looked up at the house again, and there was no one. Maybe it was to go to the toilet, Lu Chen thought about shouting the other party's name, but no one was there.

There was no response from the other party in the courtyard, Lu Chenxin suddenly panicked, and he was much more awake from drowsiness, he got up from the bed and walked into the courtyard with his clothes on.

The flashlight shone in the dark toilet, and there was no one.

There is no toilet in the bathroom, there is no kitchen in the kitchen, there is no room in the bedroom, what about people, where will they go? Lu Chen looked towards the courtyard door in a panic. The gate of the courtyard was closed well, but the latch was pushed open, and he had a lot of money and went out....

It's all this time, what is he going to do when he goes out?! Lu Chen was puzzled and anxious in his heart, and he didn't care about locking the door, pushed open the door and ran out.

Shouting each other's names as he walked, Lu Chen just walked out of the alley when he saw a small figure curled up under the street lamp on the street in the distance, shrouded in the dim light, giving people an inexplicable sadness.

"Toto?" Lu Chen walked over quickly, and sure enough, it was the other party, Duoduo, he sat curled up under the street lamp, his head buried deep between his knees.

Hearing the familiar voice, Qian Duoduo raised his head, his eyes were red and swollen, and the tears on his face had not yet been wiped away.

"What's wrong with you?" Looking at the other party's tearful appearance, Lu Chen felt that he was also sad, thinking about the other party's wrong appearance these days, squatting down and looking at the other party's eyes, and asked sincerely, "Duoduo, is there something wrong with me recently?" ”

Shaking his head, Lu Chen saw the other party trying to wipe away the tears that kept flowing, and smiled at himself with difficulty. "Aren't you sleeping? Getting busy? ”

"I'm right to ask you!" Lu Chen asked anxiously, "Why do you run out at night when you don't sleep?!" ”

"I....", the other man hesitated, stood up, and the light shone on his hair, "Let's go home and sleep." ”

It's like begging, and it's casual, and the person who rarely let himself hold hands in the past stretch out his hand to him this time. Looking at the hand stretched out in front of him, Lu Chen didn't pull it, and he didn't mean to turn around and go home.

He still looked at the smiling face with the rain, "You can tell me if I have something, and I will change it."

"It's really fine." Seeing that the other party didn't mean to hold his hand, Qian Duoduo sadly put down his hand and walked back in the direction of home.

"You're not fine, there's something big going on!" Just when the other party passed by him, Lu Chen stretched out his hand and took the other party into his arms, "You have been so abnormal these days, what happened to you?!" ”

"I...."Qian Duoduo, who was tightly held in his arms, turned even paler, and he sighed heavily, "Lu Chen, you... Do you like Ogi flowers? ”

"What?" Lu Chen was directly stunned by the other party's words. Why do you ask? ”

"Aunt in the neighborhood...."Qian Duoduo said in a low voice, Lu Chen's face turned pale and blue, and finally returned to his usual complexion, holding the person in his arms tightly. You're going to believe what those gossip aunts say. They listen to the wind and rain every day, which sentence is the truth? ”

"But..... Ogihua will come to our house every day, and now she cooks for you every day. ”

"Isn't there your share of the food she brought? Ogihua: She came to me just to be curious about the world I was in. ”

"No, it's not that simple." Qian Duoduo shook his head, sad and a little happy in his heart, silently complaining about the sluggishness of the people around him.

"No, I'm just good friends with her, if you don't like it, I can tell her not to come to our house."

You know I wouldn't say that, I'm not that kind of person..... Qian Duoduo thought in his heart, broke away from his embrace, and turned to look into Lu Chen's eyes.

"Lu Chen..."

"What's wrong?"

"It's my birthday."

"Your.... Yes! He thought of last night's noodles, "I'm sorry, I don't know...."

"Lu Chen, aren't you really dating Dihua?"

“.... Not really, I can swear. Seeing that the other party still looked a little disbelieving, Lu Chen stretched out his finger to the sky, "I, Lu Chen, if I have a different heart for Qian Duoduo, I will fight the sky..."

"That's it!" Qian Duoduo hurriedly stretched out his hand and tightly covered the other party's unfinished words in his mouth, "Go home." ”

"I'm not going home." Who knew that he had just turned around but was hugged into the arms of the other party, Lu Chen rubbed his head against the other party's neck and asked, "The person who beat the guard should leave, right?" ”

"Well, it's been the middle of the night, what's wrong?" Qian Duoduo asked puzzled.

"It's your birthday." As soon as he turned around, he was kissed by the other party on the face, Lu Chen took the other party's hand, "Go home and get something first, and before dawn, I want to make something fun for your birthday." ”
