After Mr. Xie woke up, the last stone in Xie Ning's heart also fell.
Zhuang Yan's action speed has always been fast. Before Xie Ning could react, he had already asked someone to move his things from the lakeside villa.
Speaking of which, the two have not lived together for a day or two, but this is the first time that they feel that their future lives are all integrated.
They each had a bedroom at the lake house, and the hotel when filming didn't have many personal items.
Now the two of them have their clothes in the same wardrobe, and they have each other's breath.
They all have good taste. At first glance, the clothes in the closet can't tell the difference between you and me. Zhuang Yan ran his fingers over the clothes and picked out a dark coat.
"What if I'm not careful and pick up the wrong clothes one day?" Zhuang Yan asked him with a smile.
Xie Ning glanced at him calmly: "It's so easy to get it wrong."
"Um?"
Xie Ning compared the figures of the two of them: "Your clothes are one size bigger than mine."
Zhuang Yan raised his eyebrows: "What if you didn't pay attention?"
Xie Ning said: "Even if you don't pay attention when you take it, you will always know if it will fit when you wear it."
"Yes." Zhuang Yan seemed a little regretful, "That's really a pity, I'm still thinking about the day you can go out in my clothes."
Xie Ning glared at him with a blushing face.
Just as he was about to go downstairs, Zhuang extended his hand to stop him, with an indelible smile on his lips: "You're wearing the wrong thing today."
Xie Ning made a move and looked down at his clothes.
The weather is warm today, and Shainin doesn't wear much. The delicate shirt and trousers fit very well. The sleeves are folded, just half of the wrist is exposed, and the trousers are just right. There is nothing wrong with the size.
Xie Ning made up his mind that Zhuang Yan was teasing him again, pursed his lips and glanced at him: "What's wrong?"
Zhuang Yan withdrew his hand, and his eyes fell on his neck with a smile that was not a smile: "the tie is wrong, this one is mine."
Before Xie Ning could lower his head, Zhuang Yan had already pulled him to the mirror: "Look."
He wore a light blue tie around his neck, because Zhuang Yan prefers darker tones, he didn't pay attention when picking it, and he really picked up an unfamiliar one.
The clothes of two people can also be distinguished by size, but it is not easy to distinguish clothing accessories such as ties, cufflinks, and even belts.
Xie Ning's face was slightly hot.
He raised his hand and touched the tie twice, and was about to undo it and change it.
Zhuang Yan squinted, suddenly bent down, enveloped the person in his arms, held Xie Ning's hand, and re-tie the half-untied tie.
"I only wore this tie once, because I didn't like the color, so I've put it on the bottom of the box since then. I didn't expect it to suit you."
He lowered his head, his lips seemed to be on Xie Ning's chin when he spoke, which made Xie Ning's face hotter.
Zhuang Yan said, "Just wear this one. It matches your outfit today."
Xie Ning stretched out his hand and pushed him, and then looked at his own appearance in the glasses, but in the end he didn't say anything and walked out without saying a word.
Behind him, Zhuang Yan buttoned up his sleeves and paused for a few seconds on the tip of Xie Ning's reddish ears, then raised his eyebrows with a smile.
After Mr. Xie woke up, there were several times more people who came to visit.
Most of them are juniors, and there are also many business partners of the Xie family. There are always a few that are not easy to push out.
Xie Ning is not good at greeting outsiders, and has no intention of acting like a filial son and a grandson in front of him. Seeing that Mr. Xie is in good health, he usually goes to the hospital to talk to Mr. Xie at night when no one is there.
During the day it became the time when Xie Ning and Zhuang Yan lived together.
It is not easy for Zhuang Yan to come back, and Xie Ning also knows that he will not stay long.
The crew lacked Xie Ning, the main artist, and Wang gradually and other sub-artists, but without Zhuang Yan, the director, no one stood up.
Xie Ning counted the time day by day, and was reluctant to separate from Zhuang Yan.
Zhuang Yan took Xie Ning to meet his friends today.
If it was in the past, Zhuang Yan would not be willing to take Xie Ning there. First, Xie Ning didn't like places with many people. Second, his friends always liked to play. Although there was no strong malice, they sometimes seemed to be indifferent. .
—For example, Wei Lang, who wanted to see him play with Xie Ning and Xu Qing at the beginning.
Zhuang Yan sometimes is too lazy to pay attention to them, but today is different from the past. Since he and Xie Ning have decided to go on for a long time, his circle of friends cannot be completely closed to Xie Ning.
At least he had to let his group of friends understand that Xie Ning was his chosen and recognized lover, and he was protecting him, so they could no longer be allowed to chat and tease.
Qi Rui was naturally present.
He knew a lot about the two of them, not to mention the shopping mall key that Zhuang Yan specifically asked him for during the Chinese New Year, and Xie Ning's past medical records of seeing a psychiatrist he discovered by accident, so he wasn't too surprised at this moment.
But Wei Lang came over with a somewhat unbelievable expression: "You guys are really together."
Although Qi Rui had gossips with them before, hearing it was better than seeing it. Seeing how Zhuang Yan was protecting Xie Ning so strictly, he was still a little dazed.
Zhuang Yan raised his eyes to look at him, with a smile on his face but not a smile: "Speaking of which, I would like to thank you. If it wasn't for the game you set up, Xie Ning and I would not have such a deep fate."
Today they are still in Lanzhai. Most of their friends went to the bar to play. Zhuang Yan was afraid that Xie Ning would be too noisy, so he found a quiet little private room to sit and eat, and only said a few words when someone came over.
At the same location, and the old things were brought up again, Wei Lang also remembered his mentality of watching a good show at that time.
He was also refreshing, poured himself a glass of wine, and said, "I'll give you a toast."
"He can't drink." Zhuang Yan smiled, "I drank this cup for him."
He said this, meaning to let go of the past, Wei Lang made up his mind, and looked at Xie Ning sitting next to Zhuang Yan without a trace.
Usually they don't have much interaction with Xie Ning, but when they gossip in private, there are always people who say how he and Zhuang Yan are similar.
The two were sitting together at the moment, but Wei Lang didn't find anything similar.
Xie Ning has a quiet personality, and when his eyes pass over others, he is also calm, as if nothing can leave any traces in his heart.
He treats people coldly, but not that cold. When Wei Lang greets him, he will smile politely.
But this smile is alienating.
But Zhuang Yan is different. Zhuang Yan is very public most of the time, and he doesn't usually hide his emotions. He laughs when he is happy, and frowns and reprimands you when he is not happy.
If there is any similarity between the two, it is only in appearance.
After Wei Lang left, Xie Ning's eyes fell on the wine glass and suddenly said, "I can drink."
Zhuang Yan raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "Just your alcohol capacity."
Shaining asked him, "Do you know how much I drink?"
Just as Zhuang Yan was about to respond, he suddenly remembered that he really didn't know Xie Ning's alcohol intake.
He had only seen Xie Ning drunk before, but he didn't really see how much he drank. Later, he rarely let Xie Ning drink alcohol, and he never saw him drunk after that.
Zhuang Yan said, "It won't be very good anyway."
Xie Ning turned his head to look at him and said, "Actually, if you only have one or two cups, you won't get drunk."
Zhuang Yan laughed: "Forget it, I don't dare to let you try it, or I'll coax you when you're drunk."
Xie Ning was speechless for a moment.
After that, many people came to talk to him one after another. Xie Ning met all the friends who were close to Zhuang Yan. Although most of the wine was blocked by Zhuang Yan, he could not avoid drinking two glasses, and his face was slightly rosy. .
Seeing that he seemed tired, Zhuang Yan took him to the room to rest.
Whether it was a coincidence or a deliberate arrangement, the small courtyard the two entered happened to be the one they lived in.
"The environment here is good, the air is fresh, and it's not a place where anyone can come." Zhuang Yan pulled Xie Ning to the window, "When you're upset, you can stay here for a while, and you can calm down your mind. , as if all troubles can disappear."
Xie Ning looked out the window, only to feel the green shade, which really made people feel comfortable.
The mountains in the distance are ups and downs, and the trees and green grass on the hillsides are swaying in the wind. Every breath is full of fresh and refreshing air like a forest.
Zhuang Yan pressed into his ear and said, "My grandfather used to like to stay here for a while when he was irritable. Later, his body couldn't stand the toss, so he reduced the frequency."
Xie Ning nodded: "It's really relaxing here."
Zhuang Yan hugged him: "I wrapped this courtyard."
Xie Ning was a little stunned: "What?"
Zhuang Yan said: "The nature of my work determines that it is impossible for me to stay by your side all the time. If you have any troubles in the future, and I am not here, you can come here to relax."
Xie Ning: "...Okay."
"Although it may not be useful, it is better than nothing." Zhuang Yan said.
What happened recently also sounded the alarm in Zhuang Yan's heart. Although he was confident that he could take good care of Xie Ning, when he encountered an emergency, he realized that he also had too many powerless things.
They are all adults with their own careers, and it is impossible to be tired of being around each other every minute and every second.
And Xie Ning's mental state is that he has always been worried.
Zhuang Yan only thought that even if he was not by Xie Ning's side, Xie Ning could have such a piece of pure land to let him relax completely.
While he was thinking, Xie Ning turned his head and rubbed his cheek: "It will be useful."
After a pause, he said, "I like it very much."
"As long as you like it." Zhuang Yan ticked the corner of his lips.
But Xie Ning still had a doubt in his heart, he asked, "Why this room?"
Zhuang Yan looked at him with a half-smile, "what do you think?"
After seeing the scenery, Zhuang Yan pulled Xie Ning to the bedroom, pressed him onto the bed without any explanation, and kissed him fiercely.
There was a faint smell of alcohol between their lips and teeth, as if they had pulled their memory back to that night a long time ago.
Zhuang Yan said fiercely: "Didn't you say that you were drunk and didn't remember anything? Maybe after staying a few more times, you will be able to remember what you did?"
Xie Ning blushed when he kissed him: "Why are you turning over the old accounts again."
"I just like to turn over old accounts." Zhuang Yan snorted, "unless you can completely remember how you seduced me one day."
Xie Ning was ashamed by what he said: "I didn't seduce you."
"Look, I still don't admit it." Zhuang Yan looked at his innocent expression, and his heart was full of anger.
He licked his lips, bit Xie Ning's ear viciously, his voice hoarse: "I'll help you take a bath today, let's have a good memory of what happened that night."
Xie Ning: "… "
The author has something to say: the old accounts are in chapters 21 and 22.
