On the morning of the first day of the new year, the Percy family visited all their close relatives and went to their grandparents' place in the afternoon.
His grandfather and grandmother were in the city, and they were always walking around, and it took only an hour to drive there.
The two elderly people also live in a house far away from the urban area. The air is fresh and suitable for the elderly to relax and maintain health. There are flowers and grasses in the huge yard, which is green and prosperous all year round.
When their family arrived, the old couple was still listening to a play in the house, playing chess with presbyopic glasses, and arguing about a chess piece.
Bai Xi and Bai Ruo came in with gifts, and when they entered the door, they shouted with a smile, "Grandpa, grandma."
Grandfather and grandma heard it, and immediately stopped fighting for chess, and stood up from the chair with a smile, "Xixi and Ruoruo are here."
The two took their grandson and granddaughter to watch for a while before they remembered to greet their daughter and son-in-law to sit down.
Fortunately, Wu Mo didn't expect his parents to remember him at all.
On the first day of the new year, I have to stay at my grandmother's house as usual.
After dinner, Bo Zihua and Wu Mo played cards with the old couple, while Bo Ruo and Bo Xi played cats on the sofa.
My grandmother just got a white cat this year, called "NanNan". She is less than two years old. She is pampered. She has a smooth coat and two watery blue eyes. She is very clingy and doesn't like to move. Percy's bosom received a grooming service, and she screamed.
Percy was so moved by Meng Meng that she raised her phone and took dozens of cat pictures, all of which were sent to Qi Xun.
Qi Xun's side also responded quickly, but his focus was not on the cat, but on Percy's hand.
"What's wrong with your hand, why are you wearing a Band-Aid?" Qi Xun asked.
Percy looked down and forgot that he had a wound on his hand.
He replied, "I helped chop the wonton stuffing in the afternoon, but I chopped my finger off."
There was a lot of blood, but fortunately the wound was not deep, and once the poison was eliminated, it would be fine.
Then he was thrown out of the kitchen en masse.
Qi Xun was also convinced.
I usually look at Percy as a very smart person, and her grades in school are among the best, but she collides with the kitchen.
He could only reply, "Ancestor, you'd better not help, just sit obediently."
He thought to himself that he wouldn't let Percy near the kitchen when Auntie Ding was not at home in the future.
But Percy refused to accept it, and sent another picture of a bowl of small wontons from her mobile phone, "Don't hit me, look, I'll make it."
Although he doesn't know how to cook, he can still wrap wontons.
The two of them came and went, chatting about something and nothing.
At first, Bai Ruo peeked openly, seeing that their chats were all nonsense, which in her opinion was called flirting, and then sat back without interest.
Qi Xun is also playing mahjong, but he has been kicked off the poker table because he won too much money, and as the oldest among the juniors, he has just given out a red envelope to his cousins.
He also sent one to Percy, and it was a transfer, which was much bigger than the one to his younger siblings.
Percy slapped the seeds, accepted it, and typed with a smile, "Then what should I say, thank you brother?"
Qi Xun, "It's ok if you don't thank me, I'll keep the accounts first, and then I'll talk about it later."
Percy rolled his eyes, he wasn't stupid, and he didn't have to pay the bill on the bed in the end.
But he deliberately teased Qi Xun, took out a photo from the camera and sent it to Qi Xun.
This is what Bo Ruo took for him in the afternoon.
In the photo, he is standing in the snow, wearing a baby blue sweater, which makes his skin as white as jade, with a red heart pasted by Bo Ruo on his left face, holding a newly built snowman in his hand, facing the camera The sun was shining brightly, and the small dimples were exposed.
"Does it look good, brother?" Percy asked.
He doesn't usually call him brother Qi Xun, but occasionally he calls him "brother".
Now pour a mouthful of a "brother" and scream.
Qi Xun stared at the phone screen.
Of course, it's good-looking. Bai Ruo has very good photography skills, and Bai Xi is also good-looking, and his facial features are fine and attractive. He holds the snowman and smiles with crooked eyes, which is almost comparable to the cover of a magazine.
He looked up at the window, and it was snowing here too, but there was no snowman on the windowsill, only a row of cousins who bowed their heads and played games.
Qi Xun gave a "tsk" in his heart, they were both younger brothers, how could there be such a big difference.
He lowered his head and returned two words, "Good-looking."
Percy smiled and became even more energetic, sending all photos to Qi Xun.
Qi Xun also accepted all the orders, and there was a tenderness between his brows and eyes that he didn't even realize.
The cousins rested for a while between playing games, raised their heads, but suddenly saw the lobby brother on the sofa looking down at his phone, his expressions were not gentle, all of them looked like they had seen a ghost.
"What's wrong with Brother Xun... It's New Year's Eve, and you're laughing so horribly."
"How do I know, he was training me just now."
"Hey - I found that I was still used to his cold face, and when he smiled, I was even more afraid."
Several cousins murmured.
Qi Xun heard it, and it happened that Percy was going to accompany his grandmother. He put away his phone, raised his eyes slightly, and glanced at the cousins.
With a face as beautiful as jade, it is three points more frightening than the King of Hell.
The cousins shut their mouths instantly, behaved like a group of small quails, and continued to play games with their heads down.
The first day of the new year has passed quickly.
Before going to bed, Bai Xi and Bai Ruo were stuffed with two more bowls of supper, so they could barely walk.
Percy touched his stomach, deeply suspecting that he was at risk of gaining weight this year.
On the afternoon of the second day of the new year, the family returned and drove back to their villa. On the way, Bai Xi looked out and found that the atmosphere of Valentine's Day on the street was already in full swing. The merchants pulled out various advertisements, and the flower shop door was also full of flowers. It is a rose.
Bai Ruo originally thought that Percy would definitely have plans for tomorrow, but at noon on the third day of the new year, she packed up properly, but found Percy still lying on the sofa and playing with her phone.
She asked Percy strangely, "Why don't you go out and clean up, don't you go to celebrate with Qi Xun?"
Percy moved the phone away, revealing a faint face.
His sister is really a chatting genius, which pot can't be opened and mentioned.
He explained, "Qi Xun is with his grandparents and can't come back. I'm fine staying at home."
Bai Ruo said "oh".
She is not familiar with Qi Xun, and of course she doesn't care what the Qi family's New Year's arrangements are.
She patted Percy on the shoulder, "Then you can stay at home, I'll go out first."
Percy didn't realize that the situation was wrong, and asked casually, "Are you going out to play with your best friend? There are many people on Valentine's Day, so pay attention to safety."
Bai Ruo shook his hair, "Brother, you don't have a date today, but I do. When my best friend and I can't go out, we have to choose today."
After finishing speaking, she didn't care how much shock her brother suffered, she was about to go out with her bag.
Percy realized it later, and was stunned for a few seconds before she sat up from the sofa.
no, wait...
"What do you mean, Bai Ruo, who are you dating, man? Do I know him? What does he look like, how old are you, and what kind of work do you do?"
He looks like an account checker.
Bai Ruo ignored him, changed his shoes, and waved at her brother, "No comment, bye."
She ran like the wind, and the door was slammed shut.
Percy's heart also shattered.
From the floor-to-ceiling window, he watched Bo Ruocui walk out the door, all he wanted to do was get the little bastard who kidnapped his sister out and beat him.
But after Bai Ruo left, there was no one at home at all.
Percy continued to lie on the sofa.
Liang Song went out with his family for Chinese New Year this year. He was skiing and sent him a bunch of small videos.
In addition, his circle of friends is almost filled with show affection.
It seems that all the little couples are out of the nest today.
Percy gave these mandarin ducks a thumbs up calmly.
The day passed so smoothly.
In the afternoon, he also chatted with Qi Xun, but there were many guests at Qi Xun's grandfather's house today. As the eldest grandson, Qi Xun took over the family business early in the morning. He was much busier than the following brothers and sisters who were still in college.
Percy kindly let him go and didn't bother.
Until ten o'clock in the evening, Percy thought that Qi Xun should be finished, and then sent another message to Qi Xun, asking what he was doing, but Qi Xun didn't reply.
Percy looked at the starry sky outside, somewhat lost.
But he didn't care.
He and Qi Xun are both such big people. Apart from love, they also have their own space and work. He doesn't have to think about him all the time with Qi Xun.
He leaned on the imperial concubine's couch to watch TV, there was a singing performance, what was wrong, he sang lingering hoarse love songs, like a lullaby, he fell asleep with his head tilted, the remote control from His hand slipped and fell onto the soft carpet.
In this short sleepy sleep, Percy had a dream.
It is not appropriate to say a dream, because it is clearly a memory that happened.
In the dream, he went back to the Spring Festival in his senior year. During the Lantern Festival, he invited Qi Xun out to play.
The two played for a day, and when night fell, they went to see the ice sculpture exhibition together. The crowd was crowded, Qi Xun held the phone with one hand and was talking about business, while the other hand pulled him and put his hand into his pocket, because he was afraid that he would be lost by the crowd, but also to help him Cover your hands.
Qi Xun took the call and turned around and said to him, "Why don't you wear more clothes, your hands are so cold."
Of course, Percy thought, to look good.
But he nodded obediently on his face, and the roots of his ears were ridiculously red.
He looked at Qi Xun almost complainingly.
Invisible sultry is the most deadly.
Qi Xun couldn't love him, but he showed an imperceptible tenderness in these little things that he shouldn't care about.
He is like a bird held by Qi Xun in the palm of his hand, he can flap his wings twice, but he can't fly out no matter what.
Whether or not the ice sculptures were good-looking that day, Percy couldn't remember.
Valentine's Day
But he remembered that when the ice sculpture exhibition was about to end, Qi Xun bought him a small hand-made lantern.
He looked at Qi Xun inexplicably, "Why give me this?"
Qi Xun smiled a little, diluting the coldness on his body. His facial features are actually very beautiful, carefully crafted, like his mother, and even have a different kind of style under the light.
Percy's heart was beating fast.
And what killed him more was behind him. Qi Xun rubbed his hair and said, "I see that other children have bought it, so I will buy one for you too."
Of course he knew that Qi Xun was just joking.
He was twenty-two years old that year.
He is only two years and four months younger than Qi Xun.
But when Qi Xun casually said these words, fireworks exploded in his heart.
Percy opened his eyes.
This dream was so realistic that when he woke up, he could hardly tell if it was his senior year.
But when he picked up his phone and looked at it, he was awake.
It is now 11:40 Beijing time, and there are still twenty minutes before the day passes.
He stood up from the imperial concubine's couch, stretched his waist, and stood by the window.
Looking through the floor-to-ceiling windows, he realized that it was snowing outside.
A thin layer had accumulated on the ground, and the branches had turned white.
He exhaled, and a layer of white mist condensed on the window.
He watched quietly for a while, thinking that he didn't know what Qi Xun was doing, and he didn't reply to the message until now. If he wanted to have a family dinner at night, he didn't know if he had been drinking too much.
With all these things, he was so fascinated by the thought that he didn't wake up like a dream until the phone beeped for a while.
He picked up his phone and saw that it was a message from Qi Xun, asking him if he was asleep.
He didn't reply, so Qi Xun called immediately.
Percy picked it up and smiled involuntarily, "Hey, why are you calling me now, are you done?"
"Yes, I'm done," Qi Xun said, "I just sent my aunt's family away, and my parents stayed with my grandparents."
"I see," Percy said, "what about you now? Are you ready to sleep? You should be pretty tired today."
Qi Xun stopped there for a while.
He leaned on the back of the car seat, looked up at the villa in front, and saw that the room on the left on the second floor was still lit.
He loosened his tie and said, "Sixi, I didn't stay with grandpa."
Percy didn't understand. "Where are you?"
Qi Xun laughed.
He raised his eyes, and with his good eyesight, he could clearly see Percy by the window, in his furry pajamas.
He said to Percy, "I'm right under your window and you can see me when you look down."
He got out of the car, stood on the edge of Percy's garden, raised his head, and met Percy, who was bowing his head.
Percy's eyes widened in disbelief.
Is he hallucinating, or is Qi Xun really by the wall of his garden
However, in the next second, he heard Qi Xun say on the phone.
"Xixi, I'm here to spend Valentine's Day with you."
