Chapter 8: Warmth
waved his hand.
Seeing the little short legs that might go berserk at any time leave, Lin Ran felt a gaze fall straight on his face.
Turning his head to look at the source of his gaze, his words softened unconsciously.
"What's wrong?"
"Let's go to your house tonight, I want to eat your cooking. ”
“???”
Lin Ran said that he seemed to be unable to keep up with Han Yan's thinking rhythm.
Of course, he can cook, and he is very good, and anyone who has lived alone for a long time should have almost the same life skills.
"How do you know I can cook?"
She smiled sweetly at Lin Ran and didn't speak.
Lin Ran knew that he couldn't change her mind, so he smiled at her.
"Let's go. ”
Han Yan naturally stepped forward and grabbed Lin Ran's arm.
"Let's go. ”
Lin Ran fell into a stiff state, Lin Ran evolved!
Congratulations! Lin Ran has evolved into a 'zombie' Lin Ran!
'Zombie' Lin Ran nodded stiffly.
......
Lin Ran skillfully opened the door, changed the slippers, and lent Han Yan the slippers as an excuse, broke free from the hand she was holding, threw the bag on the sofa, and lay on the sofa vertically, looking lazy.
"I'm dead, I'm a salted fish......
Lin Ran's lazy appearance made her smile gently, and then she stood at the door, quietly looking at the room.
The ordinary three-bedroom and one-living room structure, the ordinary pragmatist decoration style, is not messy, nor tidy, some are deserted, and some are faint, which belongs to Lin Ran's life atmosphere.
Her eyes shifted to Lin Ran lying on the sofa again, and her eyes welled up with tenderness and pity.
"He used to be like this, alone in a deserted home, lazy and idly lying on the sofa. After the sun set, I got up from the sofa in hindsight, hummed a strange little song, and made myself a dinner at will. After eating hastily and washing, the last thing should be to fall asleep alone......
Imagining such a picture, she walked to the sofa, sat down against Lin Ran, leaned on him gently, felt his warmth, and tried her best to eliminate his loneliness.
...... Lin Ran, who slowly stiffened again......
"Well, you're hungry too, aren't you?"
"I'm going to cook!
Like a thorny sofa, he climbed up from it and creaked to the refrigerator.
Cucumbers, eggplants, tomatoes, green peppers, eggs, all of which are shelf-stable dishes.
"Just garlic cucumbers, fish-flavored eggplant, tomato scrambled eggs, tiger skin and green peppers. 」
Holding a pile of vegetables, Lin Ran cautiously moved into the kitchen.
When he used the knife to cut vegetables, he somehow felt a little excited in his heart, he ...... It's been a long, long time since I've felt happy cooking.
I don't know when, Han Yan also came to the sliding door of the kitchen, leaned on it, and quietly looked at Lin Ran, skillfully washing rice and cooking, cutting vegetables and putting them in the pot.
The sound of stir-frying, Lin Ran's focused face, and the smile that appeared from time to time.
She was a little stupid, her face was full of tenderness, and her eyes were full of memories and nostalgia.
In the rare good weather in early winter, the warm sunset slanted into the window, and in the small kitchen, the two people who have been moving, like a very beautiful and warm picture.
......
Putting the last dish of tiger skin green pepper on the plate, Lin Ran turned his head and saw Han Yan leaning against the door, and the two looked at each other.
Lin Ran smiled at her, then quickly turned his head and said, "Why are you stunned, help serve the food." ”
......
Looking at the dishes on the table that were not sumptuous, Lin Ran picked up the bowl and motioned to Han Yan silently, and the two began to eat silently.
There was a chopsticks tomato scrambled egg on the shelf, which tasted unexpectedly good, making him squint his eyes slightly, and his gaze intersected with Han Yan slightly, and they quickly separated.
Soon, after the two finished dinner, there was no verbal exchange, only a few times their eyes intersected, but there was really a faint warmth emerging, and Lin Ran felt the warmth for a long time.
...... It's been a long, long time since there was no one to accompany him to dinner at home.
Consciously, Lin Ran took the initiative to clean up the table, and after washing, Han Yan leaned on the position just now, looking at him quietly, her face seemed to glow.
Wipe the water stains on your hands on the apron, remove it, and hang it back in its place, not daring to take a closer look at Han Yan's face that seemed to be glowing, as if chatting.
"How's it going? I'm okay with my craft, right?"
"Yes!"
"It's just a long time since I've eaten ......"
Lin Ran felt a strong sadness in this sentence, and he didn't investigate how long it was......
"If you want to eat, I'll make it for you in the future, it's not long or long. ”
He didn't realize what he said anyway, there was a problem.
"Okay!"
She had a smile like a spring flower on her face, and she couldn't see the intense sadness just now.
"Now, will you do it for me every day from now on?"
"Okay, I'll give you ......??? every day from now on"
"What's that...... emmmm, this won't work, right?"
"What's not to do?"
"Didn't you say you'd do it for me from now on?"
She bites the word 'all' very hard.
Only then did Lin Ran realize that he had said the wrong thing and was too full of words!
But he is a big man, and the words he just said in front of a woman are not easy to change, and for a while, he is a little helpless.
"There it is!"
"What, don't you have to go home too, it's so inconvenient to eat at my place every day, your parents are still waiting for you at home, why do you have to accompany your parents?"
Speaking of his parents, even if he is in his twenties in mental age, he can't help but be a little gloomy.
I took the opportunity to take out my phone and glanced at it.
7:52。
"Oh, it's so late, I'll send you back first. Otherwise, uncle and aunt should be worried!"
Seeing the gloom in Lin Ran's eyes, she couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart.
"I only have one relative......
She stepped forward and hugged Lin Ran gently, and said softly, "We are the same." ”
Excited by the smell on her body, Lin Ran's mind was stunned, and it took a while to understand what she meant.
"She's an orphan too......"
The hands hanging down at her sides had gently hugged her at some point.
Lin Ran didn't quite know the reason for his move.
Probably just wanted to give her a little warmth, after all, he knew the feeling of loneliness very well.
The feeling of being alone in the world.
Quietly, time is ticking.
Lin Ran gently let go of the hand holding Han Yan and gently broke free from her arms.
"It can't go on any longer. 」
He was afraid that he would be infatuated with this warmth, with her taste.
After all...... They've only known each other for two days.
Seeing Lin Ran's somewhat serious expression, Han Yan was a little confused, so she listened to him speak.
"Where are you staying? I'd better send you back first. ”
"Don't!"
Han Yan categorically refused and threw herself into his arms.
This is the first time in Lin Ran's memory that she has made a small temperament.
This is the first time in Han Yan's memory that she has been petty with Lin Ran since the new beginning.
"I'll live here with you from now on!"
