Ren Yi put the prepared meals on the table one by one, and opened a bottle of red wine.
Gong Yingxian crossed his arms and sat in a chair, looking at the table of meals that were completely different from his usual eating habits, not knowing what expression to make.
Ren Yi sat opposite Gong Yingxian: "Is there anything you shouldn't eat here?"
Gong Yingxian shook his head, and just about to open his mouth, Ren Yi said "Hey" and stopped him: "I know you don't eat hot food, but you eat warm food, right, you can wait for these dishes to cool down before eating." Eat, don't just reject a few dishes just because they are steaming."
Gong Yingxian stared at him: "Why don't you share meals?"
Ren Yi reluctantly got up and went to the kitchen to get a few more plates, divided all the dishes into two portions, and complained softly, "I hate me."
Gong Yingxian was amused by Ren Yi's expression: "I eat this kind of meal with you at such a small table so close to each other, and I don't dislike you very much."
"Then I really thank you, miss."
"What did you call me?" Gong Yingxian raised his final note.
"Young master." Ren Yi teased, "Although these dishes don't look very delicate, they should taste good. You should try them."
Gong Yingxian picked up the chopsticks, picked up the cold chrysanthemum chrysanthemum, and put it in his mouth. The dish contained thin vinegar and a little pepper, and it tasted very refreshing.
Ren Yi looked at Gong Yingxian with bright eyes, and asked expectantly, "How is it?"
Gong Yingxian nodded: "Not bad."
Ren Yi smiled and said, "I don't usually cook, but I can make a good recipe just by looking at it. There's nothing I can do if I'm smart." As he spoke, he put a bowl of winter melon and fish ball soup at Gong Yingxian's hand.
Gong Yingxian lowered her head slightly, leaned closer and smelled it: "It's hot."
"Try this potato beef, this one is not hot."
Gong Yingxian picked up a piece of beef, licked it tentatively with the tip of his tongue, and then ate it.
Ren Yi smiled and said, "Have you ever thought that to overcome the fear of fire, you can start by eating hot food?"
"A psychiatrist suggested it." Gong Yingxian said, "But I don't think it matters what you eat."
"It doesn't matter, you don't eat hot food, it's just because you hate high temperature, or subconsciously think that they are cooked by fire, right?"
Gong Yingxian didn't speak.
"You overcome the fear of fire-related objects, which will help you better overcome the fear of fire itself. This logic is okay."
Gong Yingxian snorted softly: "You worked so hard to make me eat what you made."
Ren Yi laughed and said, "I want you to taste more of the delicacies in the world. Some things are delicious hot, such as this bowl of soup."
Gong Yingxian glanced at the winter melon soup, hesitant.
"Give me some face, how about a taste? It won't burn you."
Gong Yingxian tilted the bowl of soup and coughed lightly: "Since I'm here as a guest at your house today, I'll give you some face."
"Come, come." Ren Yi looked at Gong Yingxian expectantly.
Gong Yingxian gracefully picked up the bowl, stirred it with a spoon, and then took a breath, trying to let it cool down quickly.
Ren Yi couldn't help thinking of Miaomiao, sometimes the cooked meat was hot just out of the pot, Miaomiao would squat beside the bowl and wait obediently, Gong Yingxian was like Miaomiao who was waiting for the meat to cool, he thought Here, I couldn't help but chuckle.
Gong Yingxian glared at him.
Ren Yi spread his hands.
Gong Yingxian scooped up a spoonful of soup, took a deep breath, brought it to his lips, and drank it cautiously.
"How?" Ren Yi asked excitedly.
Gong Yingxian was stunned for a moment: "It's, it's okay." He couldn't remember the last time he ate something so hot. After an accident at home, he was sent to the United States. Under the dual effects of his aversion to high temperature and Western food culture, he no longer ate any hot food, and even forgot that the taste of a mouthful of fragrant hot soup was originally … so good.
Ren Yi felt his heart beating wildly. What made him happy was not only that Gong Yingxian ate hot food, but also that Gong Yingxian was willing to change himself for him, even just a little bit. This at least showed that he was a worthy person in this person's heart. Serious people, right? He said happily: "Drink more if it tastes good. These are Wenzhou fish balls. They were sent from the homes of soldiers in our squadron, and I made them myself."
Gong Yingxian looked at Ren Yi's bright eyes, and said angrily, "Don't keep urging me to eat, you don't want to eat it yourself."
Ren Yi ate happily: "This is delicious, and this is also delicious. Hey, I'm really good."
Gong Yingxian looked at Ren Yi's complacent and secretly happy appearance, and the corners of his lips couldn't help smiling, temporarily forgetting the shadow of the past that had always been entrenched in his heart.
Ren Yi coaxed and tricked Gong Yingxian to taste all the dishes, watching Gong Yingxian eat what he made, he couldn't describe the satisfaction at this moment.
Ren Yi tapped the wine bottle with his finger: "Shall we have some wine?"
Gong Yingxian hesitated: "Alcohol can make people lose control, and I don't like losing control."
"You are too tired today and have experienced too much. Drinking some wine will make you forget everything and sleep peacefully."
Gong Yingxian snorted softly: "It will also make people unable to wake up in the morning and be late."
Ren Yi laughed: "Why do you hold grudges so much?"
Gong Yingxian raised his chin: "Have a drink, what kind of wine is this?"
"I don't know, it was a gift from a friend." Ren Yi poured wine for the two of them, "I usually drink beer, I don't drink red wine very much, but if I let you drink beer..." He shook his head and smiled, "I feel something is wrong. "He couldn't imagine Gong Yingxian squatting with them at the roadside stall drinking beer and eating skewers.
Gong Yingxian picked up the wine glass and shook it lightly, and took a sniff at the tip of her nose: "You don't want to sober up before you drink."
"There are not so many rules, just drink." Ren Yi grabbed the cup and touched him forcefully, "Come on."
Gong Yingxian had no choice but to take a sip, he frowned slightly, and said honestly: "This wine is not good."
Ren Yi, who was already used to Gong Yingxian's temper, didn't care at all: "Then you bring wine next time."
"Ok."
After eating, Ren Yi tried to teach Gong Yingxian how to play games.
Gong Yingxian didn't drink often, so he was a little dizzy at this moment. He leaned on the sofa, still holding on to the red wine glass, yawned and said, "Your wine is not good."
"You've already said it just now, even after you've had a drink, your stomach is still different." Ren Yi cast the screen of his phone on the TV, then bumped Gong Yingxian's shoulder, "Look at the screen, I'll teach you how to play this game." game."
"Such a game?"
"Ever played CS?"
"I don't play games."
Ren Yi explained: "To put it simply, it is to fight the enemy with a weapon, and you will win if you live to the end."
Gong Yingxian looked at the picture on the screen, he narrowed his eyes: "...Goddess?"
Ren Yi blinked his eyes: "Isn't this name a special fairy?"
"Why did you call him that name?" Gong Yingxian stared at him in disbelief.
"I didn't say it anymore, check and balance my five elements."
"What about 'Goddess'?"
"Well, they think I'm a woman, so they will relax their guard against me, and sometimes they can cheat on some equipment."
Gong Yingxian narrowed her eyes: "Isn't this cheating?"
"Then why are you being serious? The most important thing in a game is to have fun." Ren Yi laughed and said, "Come on, come on, let me show you a massacre." Ren Yi took a gun, and was fucked as soon as he jumped out of the window fall down,"… ".
Gong Yingxian laughed: "Are you dead?"
Ren Yi was a little ashamed and angry, put down his phone, and muttered, "The location was not very good just now."
Gong Yingxian picked up the wine glass and handed it to Ren Yi, and Ren Yi took it with his hand. He suppressed a smile: "This glass of wine is a deep mourning for the goddess who lived for one minute and 46 seconds."
Ren Yi scolded with a smile: "Your uncle, I just made a mistake." He bumped the glass with Gong Yingxian heavily, and drank the wine in one gulp.
Gong Yingxian lay back on the sofa, feeling dizzy in the brain and light all over his body. This feeling of being so comfortable that he was a little out of control was not bad. He said softly: "Eat, drink, play, you... grew up like this. ?"
Ren Yi smiled: "Most boys grow up like this, right? Then what were you doing when you were young?"
"Learn, train, experiment."
Ren Yi paused, and said in a low voice, "It must be very lonely."
Gong Yingxian was silent for a moment, then said, "No."
Ren Yi tilted his head and glanced at Gong Yingxian, his profile was as perfect as a sculpture, a thin blush appeared on his cheeks, and a hint of bewilderment appeared in his deep eyes, which made people's heart skip a beat.
Feeling Ren Yi's gaze, Gong Yingxian also turned away.
The eyes of the two met, and their eyes, which had become chaotic due to alcohol, gradually found the focus from each other's eyes. The faces in front of them were so familiar, but the emotions that surfaced on them felt strange, and they felt inexplicable palpitations.
Like an electric shock, they turned their heads at the same time.
Ren Yi quietly took a deep breath, picked up the bottle and poured wine for the two of them, and said loudly, "Come, drink."
They clinked glasses while chatting, and Ren Yi taught Gong Yingxian to play a game. At this moment, they were like two adolescent boys, with no worries, no memories, no crimes, just enjoying the leisure time with friends.
In the middle of the night, Gong Yingxian didn't know whether he was drunk or sleepy, so he dozed off on the sofa. Ren Yi, who could drink better and was relatively sober, patted Gong Yingxian on the shoulder: "Don't sleep here, go back to your room gone."
Gong Yingxian grumbled.
Ren Yi struggled to drag Gong Yingxian up from the sofa: "Hey, I got up, go back to my room to sleep."
Gong Yingxian reluctantly opened his eyes, and walked into the room with Ren Yi's support.
Ren Yi didn't have much strength anymore, for a short distance, the two of them had four legs and walked crookedly. After finally seeing the bed in the guest room, Ren Yi gritted his teeth and walked forward quickly. When he was only a few steps away from the bed, he used all his strength to throw Gong Yingxian onto the bed, but Gong Yingxian grabbed his arm and brought him to him.
Both of them fell on the bed, Ren Yi lay on Gong Yingxian's body with his chest pressed against his chest, for a while, he was half sober from the wine, and he didn't dare to breathe.
