Chapter 37: The Beginning of the New Year
"Dongfang, are you sleepy?" Xu Qingchen turned his head to look at the person leaning on his shoulder and asked softly.
Dongfang opened his eyes when he heard this, and gently rubbed it on his shoulder, "Don't, that's fine." The furnace in the attic is burning brightly, and he is not afraid of the cold in the east, but this person is obviously sleepy and narrows his eyes, and his arms are still stubbornly wrapped around him, Xu Qingchen smiled, "Are you afraid that I will run away?" ”
"It's past noon, you can go to sleep, can I accompany Dongfang to rest?" Xu Qingchen turned his head to look at him, "Hmm..." Seeing that he agreed, Xu Qingchen picked up the wool cloak next to him and surrounded Dongfang densely, and then went downstairs with the person in his arms, when Xu Qingchen pushed open the bedroom door, he felt the person in his arms move, "You said you wanted to accompany me." After a pause, Xu Qingchen tightened his arms, walked to the bedroom where he lived with the person in his arms, put the person on the side of the bed, and took off his cloak to reveal the beautiful red-clothed beauty under the candlelight, "Wait, I'll wipe you with a cloth." ”
There was hot water on the stove, Xu Qingchen simply brought a wooden basin mixed with some warm water, brought it over and wiped Dongfang's hands and face carefully, and then scrubbed himself, Dongfang looked at the cloth towel shared by the two of them in his hand, and showed a bright smile. After washing his face, he took off his shoes and socks for Dongfang, and gently rubbed the white and delicate feet that were not like men, Dongfang obediently let him fiddle, but his cheeks showed a faint pink. Xu Qingchen also did these things for others for the first time, but he didn't feel difficult, and naturally seemed to be, "The water seems to be a little cold, I'll add some hot water." Dongfang grabbed him with one hand and shook his head, "No need to add water, I've already washed it, and I'll help you." Saying that he wanted to help Xu Qingchen take off his boots, Xu Qingchen hurriedly supported him, Dongfang sat high, so that his body would lean forward, "You sit down quickly, I'll come by myself." ”
After the two of them finished soaking their feet together, the water was almost cool, the two of them put their feet together, no one felt squeezed, Xu Qingchen scooped up Dongfang's feet first, helped him wipe them clean, and then quickly wiped them himself, went out and poured water, cleaned up and returned to the bed, his red-clothed beauty was still lying on his back, "Okay." Dongfang propped up his body and opened his arms, Xu Qingchen naturally stepped forward to widen his clothes, and after leaving the snow-white middle coat, Xu Qingchen unfolded the brocade quilt and covered the person in, seeing Dongfang staring at him, he couldn't help laughing, quickly took off his clothes, extinguished the candle and went to bed and put down the bed curtain.
As soon as Xu Qingchen lay down on the outside, he felt that a person had been drilled into his bed, he smiled softly in the dark, reached out and took the person into his arms, gently patted the thin back, and the person in his arms also reached out and hugged himself tightly, Xu Qingchen groped and kissed Dongfang's forehead and said, "Dongfang, good night." ”
Dongfang listened to Xu Qingchen's steady heartbeat, enjoyed each other's body temperature, and entered the Black Sweet Country with satisfaction.
Outside the house, it was still snowing, the bright moonlight was reflected by the snow, and the cold wind swept the snowflakes, drifting with the waves, not knowing the way forward.
But these are all right, beware of the care, the wandering person will eventually go home, because there is always a light for you to shine and light your way home.
In the morning, when Xu Qingchen woke up as usual, he felt that there was a gaze staring at him, he opened his eyes, and met a pair of eyes as deep as a lake, and couldn't help but indulge in it, he wanted to see clearly what secrets were hidden in it.
"Qingchen..."
"Hmm." Subconsciously respond to the East.
Dongfang raised his arm, and his onion-white fingertips carefully traced the outline of Xu Qingchen's face. Xu Qingchen didn't move, staring at the person in his arms, he was keenly aware of Dongfang's current mood, Dongfang didn't speak, so he accompanied him quietly.
"Qingchen... I, why did you never ask me who I was? ”
Xu Qingchen didn't expect him to ask this, but he still said honestly, "What I care about most is only Dongfang this person, as for your identity, it is impossible to say that you don't care, but I am willing to believe Dongfang, maybe one day Dongfang feels that the time is just right to tell me in person, of course it doesn't matter if you don't say it, as long as Dongfang is happy, I can not care." Xu Qingchen took Dongfang's hand into his hand and kissed it gently. So Dongfang, don't be upset, let alone feel sorry, no matter what happened in the past, now you are no longer alone, you and I are one, your joys and sorrows are all my participation, do whatever you want to do, if it is not harmful, I will support you. East, I love you. ”
As soon as the words fell, Dongfang buried his face in Xu Qingchen's arms, his body trembled uncontrollably, Xu Qingchen felt that there was a hot liquid soaking his thin clothes, Xu Qingchen didn't know what had happened to Dongfang, but it could also be seen from his insecurity and awkward and cute temperament, it must not be a good experience, he was distressed, but he couldn't go back to the past to protect him early, all he could do was to love him a little more, and love him a little more.
"Okay, don't cry, I'll take a look." Holding Dongfang's face, seeing that the tears seemed to be like short-term beads, it seemed that he couldn't stop, and his heart was filled with fine distress, Xu Qingchen leaned over, kissed away those crystal tears, kissed the reddened eyes, and kissed Dongfang deeply, they breathed entangled, the deeper and deeper the kiss seemed to convey each other's feelings to each other without concealment, Xu Qingchen watched Dongfang's tears gradually stopped, and then slowly attacked, guiding Dongfang to breathe, when they separated, Dongfang seemed particularly reluctant, "Kiss again." ”
How could Xu Qingchen be willing to go against Dongfang, he lowered his head and kissed him, and after a while, Xu Qingchen pulled away and crossed Dongfang's full and ruddy lips with his thumb, "Good, it's time to get up and eat breakfast, otherwise your stomach will be upset." ”
Seeing that Dongfang didn't speak, his arms were still tightly wrapped around his waist, Xu Qingchen covered the corners of the quilt for him, hugged the person and smiled softly, "Then lie down for a while." In fact, he didn't want to get up, he had to know that he was born in the military, and he had never said that he had been in bed for so many years, and now the person in his arms only felt that the vacancy in his heart had been filled, and he couldn't help but want to be with him, and what he did was enjoyment.
I don't know how long they hugged and lay down, but in the end, the two of them got up, and after cleaning up, Xu Qingchen took Dongfang to use the dumplings prepared by the next person in the morning.
Since Xu Qingchen never needed to be waited for by someone to eat, he sent everyone away, and no one introduced Dongfang to him. "What's this stuffing?"
"Huh? You really stopped me asking this question, Dongfang, I'll try it and tell you first. ”
"This plate is for shiitake mushrooms and cabbage, this is for radish and pork, this is leek and eggs... We've eaten together many times, but it's the first time we've eaten dumplings. Isn't it, Oriental? ”
Dongfang picked up a dumpling stuffed with shiitake mushrooms and cabbage, "Well, I remember the first time we ate Jiangnan cuisine." ”
"Yes, I wanted to go to drink Gu Suyue at that time, the business in the store was very good, and then I met Dongfang, did Dongfang also go by chance at that time?"
"That family's wine flag is the highest."
"The wine flag is high? Haha, Dongfang you are so interesting, fortunately it hangs high, otherwise I don't know when I will meet Dongfang. ”
Dongfang remembered his situation at the time, went to Jiangnan to deal with some affairs in the sect, and by the way, he wanted to relax alone, so he met Xu Qingchen, who was elegant and personable, Xu was obsessed with it from then on, otherwise how could he think about it so many times, looking at the people sitting beside him, his eyes were full of his own, and he suddenly remembered the sweetness and mellow taste of Gu Suyue, "Do you have wine?" ”
"Want to drink Gusu Yue? Not here at the moment. If you want to drink, you have to wait a few days, send someone to send it quickly, or we will go south to buy wine ourselves. "How's it going to be in the East?" Going south? ”
Dongfang sandwiched a dumpling for him, watched him finish eating, and smiled lightly, "Why not." What he didn't say was, "As long as you're with you, you can go anywhere." But Xu Qingchen understood, he nodded, "Accompany me to the study later, and we will set off after a few things are handled." ”
