In the lonely winter night, the street lights lengthened two rays that could hardly distinguish each other.
Chi Xueyan couldn't help thinking that it turned out to be like hugging the person she loved.
Unlike the gentle embrace of parents in childhood, it is also different from the occasional celebration hugs between friends.
He stretched out his hand around the person close at hand, his fingers subconsciously grabbed the coat on his back, and his breath was buried in the other's shoulder.
It seems that snowflakes from the sky fell into the grass on the ground, fell along the growth of the grass, and gently melted on it.
This feeling is as special as a kiss.
The last time he made him understand the feeling of kissing was also the same person.
It's just that Heqiao was calmer and more comfortable at that time.
At this moment, it seems that students have encountered a new question and have not found the most appropriate solution for a long time.
Chi Xueyan clearly touched the clumsiness mixed with helplessness. For a moment, the people around him could not find the appropriate words to support their mood. Only the heartbeat in the depths of his chest became particularly clear, losing the proper and calm order.
In the quiet night when people are scattered, this seems to be the only remaining sound in the whole world.
So Chi Xueyan, who was buried on his shoulder, said softly with a muffled smile: "Your heartbeat is so loud."
Compared with those "I love you" that seem to be easy to say, he prefers to listen to the most instinctive heartbeat.
That's a fake answer.
In his voice again, the person who suddenly became clumsy because of the confession seemed to finally come to his senses.
The next second, Chi Xueyan was closer to the noisy heartbeat.
The person he held no longer hesitated, and his arms wrapped around his waist forcefully, cherishing it as he wished.
He Qiao said, "When I saw you across the road that day, I really wanted to hug you."
"Which day?"
"The morning of my birthday."
Chi Xueyan recalled the morning when she was going to take an adventure on the college campus.
He Qiao, wearing his coat, stood distracted on the opposite sidewalk until he, who was too lazy to cross the road more, was woken up by a phone.
It turned out that he was thinking about this matter at that moment.
Today, he put on the coat he borrowed again.
Time is always so wonderful.
"It's almost my birthday now." Chi Xueyan said in his arms, "You don't have to take me on an adventure. Just cut the cake for me."
He Qiao, who does things in a trace, should be able to divide the cake more beautifully and keep every cream flower in full bloom.
"Okay."
"You don't have to try to be better to me again. It's good now."
Even during the agreement marriage that had not yet been in love, He Qiao treated him impeccablely.
"Okay."
Chi Xueyan smiled again: "Can you only say this word?"
"No." He Qiao answered his joke seriously and asked, "Are you cold?"
"It's not cold." Chi Xueyan also replied seriously, "But I want to go home."
He Qiao didn't say it again.
He let go of the person in his arms, and then held Chi Xueyan's hand, which was slightly cold by the wind.
On the way home, the tangled fingers were flowing with heat, and even the winter faded.
The 29th night of the year.
Sheng Xiaoyue rarely stayed in front of the TV to concentrate on watching the eight o'clock soap opera, but swayed by the window from time to time, watching the movement outside.
Until the familiar sound of the car came from far and near, her eyes suddenly lit up and she hurried out.
The black luxury car stopped in front of the house. After a while, the driver continued to drive the car into the garage.
The two figures shrouded in the moonlight look so close.
Sheng Xiaoyue's eyes crossed the garden where flowers were still blooming in winter, and she saw hands holding hands everywhere.
We have been married for half a year, and the relationship seems to be better than before.
She couldn't help laughing, stood by the door with warm yellow lights, and hurriedly waved to the two people walking side by side.
Heqiao's company had a holiday a few days ago, and Chi Xueyan's clinic did not officially start the Spring Festival holiday until after work tonight.
This is the first time they have lived together since their marriage.
Sheng Xiaoyue asked the servant at home to clean up Heqiao's room early and put on the new daily necessities for two. The sun warmed the newly washed sheets and quilts.
In order to commemorate the special Spring Festival from a family of four to a family of five, she didn't even have the words of the Spring Festival couplets that had been prepared for anyone to be pasted, and wanted to wait for the two of them to post them together.
She wants to see Xiaochi pasting Spring Festival couplets.
Unfortunately, it's too late today. He has another day of work. He must be tired and can only wait until tomorrow.
Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. It's just right to do these trivial things during the day when you have nothing to do.
Chi Xueyan and He Qiao entered the door. First, they were pulled by Sheng Xiaoyue to ask questions, and then briefly greeted He Huaili and He Xiao, who had been on vacation at home.
In the beautiful and spacious house, there is a calm and happy scene.
The feeling of a family being by her side made Sheng Xiaoyue smile all night.
When Chi Xueyan talked about the little patient who had just worked overtime, even those slightly unfamiliar dental terms sounded particularly interesting.
However, she was still very measured. After sending the two to Heqiao's bedroom, she let them free with a smile.
"He Qiao, take Xiaochi around by yourself. Your game room has also been cleaned. Does Xiaochi like to play games?"
She said carefully, "If you are hungry, go to the snack room. I bought a lot of delicious food, or ask my aunt to get up and cook."
"I see, Mom." He Qiao answered, "Good night."
Chi Xueyan also said good night to her.
When he seet Sheng Xiaoyue away, he thought that maybe he would not call her Aunt Xiaoyue soon.
In such a warm room, mother seems to be a more appropriate name.
It has nothing to do with blood and marriage. He just wants to call this very gentle mother in the same way as He Qiao.
What's more, Chi Xueyan's parents have happily gone abroad to see the aurora.
When he graduated from high school, his family of three went to see the aurora together. At that time, Chi Xueyan was on the spur of the moment, but now he has become an abandoned light bulb.
It is worthy of a smile when he was young, looking at the couple who tried to learn light skills and worked hard for a year.
Chi Xueyan looked at the bedroom in front of her, which was specially decorated warmly and romantically by Sheng Xiaoyue, which was similar to the style of the wedding room, and sighed silently in her heart.
Speaking of which, this is the first time he and He Qiao have slept in the same bed.
Although the relationship has been confirmed, the two still live in their respective rooms in the wedding room.
There are always steps in love. It's not that you have to go to bed immediately after receiving a kiss.
He prefers to do what he wants in the atmosphere of nature.
Because every stage of love is very interesting.
Now Chi Xueyan no longer doubts Su Yu's statement.
For example, a lover who has not really had any intimate contact, but because of the apparent relationship with a partner who has been married for half a year, they have to sleep in the same bed during the long Spring Festival holiday, or quietly separate a person to sleep on the sofa.
He thinks it's very interesting.
I don't know what He Qiao will think.
Chi Xueyan looked at the people around him and tried to find clues from his expression, but only saw He Qiao's eyes move away from the dark wine-red bed.
It looks very calm.
"Do you want to wash up and rest? Or take a look around?"
The tone is also quite calm.
Chi Xueyan then diverted his attention: "Do you have a special game room?"
He Qiao Nodded And Said, "Do You Want To See It?"
"Yes." He walked out of the bedroom first, in a casual tone, "Is there any interesting game?"
He Qiao used to know that he was a dentist, and he had never seen him working.
And Chi Xueyan has not seen Heqiao playing games.
He wants to have a look.
He Qiao fell behind him and stretched out his hand to turn off the light and close the door. Before the light went out, his eyes seemed to subconsciously brush the bed.
The rich deep wine red was left alone in the night.
This soft and comfortable bed has never waited for two owners with different moods tonight.
Because Chi Xueyan suddenly found that the game picked by He Qiao was really fun.
He rarely played games before. Compared with chasing happiness in the virtual world, he prefers to experience it in reality. Anyway, there is basically nothing he dares to do.
But in any case, in reality, it is impossible for him to provoke a gunfight with people in the chaotic crime city and frantically escape the chase in the roaring siren.
While waiting for the host to load the game and read the archive, Chi Xueyan looked around the game room full of game CDs and surroundings, and asked He Qiao, "How about your skills in playing games?"
He doesn't play often, so his operation level must be average.
He Qiao said that he didn't like to play games, but Chi Xueyan always felt that not liked to play does not mean that he can't play.
He Qiao really replied, "It's okay."
As soon as his words fell and the game was loaded, the first picture that appeared on the super-screen TV was a crashed car and the protagonist of the game who came out of the car, covering his bleeding head and howling.
Seeing this, Chi Xueyan was silent for a second, and then cast a meaningful look.
"..." He Qiao paused, tried to recall, and explained, "It was because I answered a phone call temporarily that the car overturned."
He hasn't opened this game for a long time.
The last time he played was on the night after the blind date. He still lived in this house and did not find a reasonable opportunity to change for the time being, so he could only maintain the hobby of "Heqiao" every day.
When he was playing the game, he suddenly received a call from Chi Xueyan.
For a moment, the car that was originally driving smoothly on the screen fell straight down the slope, rolling 360 degrees in the air, raising dust and smoke all over the sky.
Now that I think about it, after receiving the phone call, there was a place full of dust and smoke, as if it was not just a game.
Chi Xueyan nodded with a smile: "Well, I believe it."
His voice sounded the exact opposite of suspicion.
He Qiao thought for a moment and didn't know how to continue to explain, so he had to ask him, "Do you want to compete?"
"Do you want to drive in the competition?"
"Fly the plane." He said, "There is a special flight module that you should like, and I haven't played it before."
So it's a fair competition.
When the plane appeared on the screen, accompanied by a very immersive game guidance narration, Chi Xueyan thought that He Qiao knew him very well, and he did like this module.
And the technology He Qiao just said is okay, obviously too modest.
Because Chi Xueyan is not familiar with the basic operation of this kind of console game, he asked the other party to play it for the first time.
He watched He Qiao control the plane with a handle, smoothly bypassing strange obstacles one by one, and when he successfully reached the end and landed, it felt very simple.
As a result, when the seemingly easy-to-use game controller arrived in his hands, the plane suddenly crashed into a high-rise building, and the plane was destroyed and died.
He even looked at the flight route more than Heqiao.
Chi Xueyan, who was originally lazy sitting, suddenly became much more serious and immediately began the second attempt.
The flight ranking list that records local data is blank at first, and only the record left by He Qiaogang.
Later, Chi Xueyan finally appeared the record after successfully passing the challenge.
During this period, He Qiao did not take the initiative to teach him, but just patiently stood by his side, watching him try again and again, and answer his occasional questions.
There are many different training items in this flight module, and there are also difficulties to choose from.
Gradually immersed in it and found fun, Chi Xueyan was no longer satisfied with the most basic difficulty, and began to challenge more difficult content.
Every time he breaks the record he left, he always can't help looking aside excitedly.
And the person who has been sitting next to him is also staring at him with a smile.
The night passed quietly like this.
Chi Xueyan is used to going to bed early and getting up early every day after work, and not staying up late. Although she is interested in the game tonight, fatigue and sleepiness come faster after maintaining a high concentration for a long time.
He fell asleep unconsciously.
Immersed in a strange dream, he saw the distant clouds of freedom, hanging high in the untouchable sky, sending only a light breeze, brushing over him who was waiting alone in the world.
When the wind came, the small one seemed to be washed away by the invisible warm water, and seemed to be embraced by a familiar transparent breath.
A long and ironed hug.
When Chi Xueyan woke up from her dream, she found that she was really leaning in an arm.
The gray-blue sky in the morning filled the whole room, and what came into view with the hazy sun was the bright game picture.
The big screen in front was still on, and there was no game music coming out. It was probably silenced.
The picture stays on the flight ranking list.
Two flight records with exactly the same number of minutes and seconds are ranked first on the list.
An earlier one is the best result left by Chi Xueyan when he was in high interest.
Later, he should have fallen asleep by then.
And the person who left the latter record is also asleep now.
Chi Xueyan raised her face very lightly and caught a glimpse of He Qiao's side face infiltrated by the sunlight, the heroic lines, and the light blue particles floating in the air, and the dust of time.
He didn't disturb him, but quietly looked at the person holding him in his arms and looked at him carefully for a long time.
It seems to see eternity.
