333, Fanwai 04: The second half of my life is all sugar (finished, the new book has been uploaded)
"I'm back!" As soon as Xia Solstice pushed open the door, he smelled the sweet and sour fragrance, "Are you cooking?" Didn't you tell you to leave it aside and wait for me to come back? β
"I got off work earlier than you! It's not that hard. Su Xiao held the plate of sweet and sour pork ribs, and when the summer solstice approached, he picked up a small piece and sent it to her mouth, "You taste it." β
"What's wrong with your hand?" She noticed a patch of red on the back of his hand.
"It's okay, it's been scalded......"
Before he finished speaking, she snatched the plate in her hand.
She dragged him to the shelf, opened the medicine box for the burn cream, and muttered the words as she applied the ointment: "What a stupid...... Who cooks a meal and gets burned...... You're a pair of hands, and I'm not responsible for it......"
"Hey! Tap! He lowered his head, his face almost touching her forehead, and she was so engrossed in the ointment that she didn't notice.
"Does it still hurt?"
"It hurts. It hurts to death. Why don't you blow it. β
She really brought his hand to her lips and blew softly. After a while, he noticed the breath floating in front of his forehead, and when he raised his eyes, he realized that he was trying to hold back a smile.
She feigned anger and pushed him away: "You have learned to pretend." β
She ran up to the attic with her backpack, and he shouted behind her, "Come and eat, and write after eating." β
She's always busy, and he knows it. In his spare time, he would help her make some design drafts, and on weekends he would go over to help her organize activities.
He supported her unconditionally, but she said, "I have to finish the path I have chosen on my knees." But don't be too tired, you're already busy with work. β
"I don't feel tired." He rested his elbows on the workbench, cupped his cheeks, and reached across with his other hand to gently hook her index finger.
The house became almost half of their workshop, the big workbench, they each had half of it, she wrote, he painted. However, he often deserted, and would secretly draw a moment of deep thought when she was not looking.
She is not so much an idealist as she is full of fantasy based on reality and detachment, and she has built a fairytale town in a city where everyone is tired of life. He was proud of the light she radiated.
"We may not have time to go to the movies, though." Xia Zhi felt sorry that work always washed away the date between the two.
"It's fine. Watching movies is to be with you, you're there, and it doesn't matter what you do. Besides, you can also find a movie to watch at home, which is more comfortable than in the cinema. β
Heh, I almost forgot that he was a dead house in the first place. As soon as the screen is pulled, the projector is turned on, and you can watch a movie while lying in bed.
Coming out of the shower and wiping his soaked hair with a towel, he had already set up the movie. She said, "Will you take care of it first?" I'll come later. β
"Hey, don't go, dry your hair first, you'll catch a cold."
She sat on the carpet beside the bed with her knees crossed, and let him run the hair dryer through every strand of her hair over and over again.
It's always like that...... Get along well, and run away before bedtime...... He muttered to himself. She always wrote late every night, often when she went to bed he was already asleep, and when he woke up she had to sleep for a few more hours. It feels like the two are not in the same time zone at all.
He ran his fingers through her hair, which was soft and thin, scented by the hot air.
His heart moved, and he put down the hair dryer. He slid to the ground, hugged her from behind, sniffed her hair scattered on his shoulders, and said, "Xia Solstice, is it very uncomfortable for you to be with me?" β
"How so? Don't be cranky. Having said that, his sudden intimacy made her cheeks hot.
"Even though we lived together, I didn't feel like a couple. Are you avoiding me? β
"Absolutely nothing...... I...... Well, it's true that I haven't gotten used to this shift in relationships. And you know that...... I like to write ...... early hours of the morning, "What the hell is she talking about...... She took a breath, looked sideways at him with a naΓ―ve face, frowned, and said, "No, can I understand that you are coquettish?" β
He pursed his lips and smiled faintly, "Yes." "A thousand books
"That'...... Do you want me to put you to sleep? You're asleep, I'm going to write again? β
"I'm not a child, I don't want you to sleep."
She caressed his face, her heart filled with watery tenderness. Silently approaching him, feeling his sweet scent, lips touching.
"Is that okay? Sisters and brothers or good friends will not do this. β
"Not enough...... he picked her up, and before she could react, he gently lowered her onto the bed, "I want more......"
As a couple, they are indeed very restrained, living together for two months, and the most intimate contact is nothing more than holding hands, hugging and kissing.
Xia Zhi never takes the initiative in this kind of thing, she is not the kind of greasy and crooked little woman. What's more, although he seems to be used to the contact between the two now, she has not forgotten the first time the two of them held hands, hugged for the first time, and kissed for the first time.
That instinctive stiffness speaks for itself. She didn't want to embarrass him.
However, at this moment, she still cooperated with him, closed her eyes and accepted his kiss until his kiss gradually lightened.
Sure enough...... Or is it like this......
She cupped his face and said, "Su Xiao, it's okay...... Don't force ......."
"Reluctantly?" He raised his eyebrows.
Did she hurt him? She hurriedly said: "When I decided to be together, I felt that it didn't matter. I enjoy the tacit understanding and relaxation when the two of us are together, and I am very happy with you. As for that...... You can have it or not. β
"Which one are you talking about?"
ββ¦β¦β
"So you've always been very considerate that I can't do it?"
ββ¦β¦β
She was really speechless, it was she who provoked the topic, but even between lovers, such a topic made her blush. "I didn't mean that...... she didn't know what she meant, "you're angry?" β
Theoretically, that would make any man angry......
He actually laughed: "Is there something I want to explain to you?" I don't know why you have such a misunderstanding, but I have always been able to do it to the person I like, and I have normal needs in this regard......"
He leaned close to her ear as he spoke, and she felt a wave of warmth spread from her earlobe to her face.
"But ......," she could still think of retorting, "why did you run away that night?" β
He was stunned: "Which day?" β
"That Night at Jinghai Villa...... "Such an experience is too memorable for any woman...... One could even say, humiliation.
He winked innocently: "I didn't run away...... I just went to take a shower and came out and you fell asleep...... I still think I'm losing, but I can't wake you up......"
After three seconds of silence, she burst out, "What the are you going to take a shower at that time?" β
"Shouldn't you always take a shower at that time?"
