"You are unreliable, look who is as big a brother as you are." Tang Suoyan gently tapped the back of Tao Xiaodong, who was sitting on the carpet in front of him, with his knee, "You can just talk about it, if Xiao Chi finds you Can't you?"
"He said he could?" Tao Xiaodong put his head on Tang Suoyan's leg and asked him with a smile, "Do you think there is a positioning on the bracelet he made?"
Tang Suoyan didn't speak, but the two brothers knew it.
"You're going to be bad," Tang Suoyan scratched him on the head, "Just tell Xiao Nan that it's over, and you have to make a fuss."
Tao Xiaodong laughed for a long time and said, "What's the point of that, what a surprise."
Xiaodong was so bad that he first didn't tell Tao Huainan that Chicheng was back, and then he didn't tell Chicheng that Tao Huainan didn't intend to drink, but only said that he went out to drink with a blind friend.
A group of blind people, none of whom can see clearly, drink a little wine, no matter whether someone recruits them, they are enough to bump into each other.
After Chi Cheng found out, he didn't say anything, he was calmer than anyone else, he just left after eating and dressing with his brother.
"What are you going to do?" Tang Suoyan asked Chi Cheng who was changing shoes at the door.
Chi Cheng said, "I'll go out for a walk."
Tao Xiaodong passed a small step at the right time: "Then pick it up for your brother, can you find it? It's not far from their school."
Chi Cheng said yes.
After Chi Cheng left for two hours, Tao Xiaodong and Tang Suoyan casually played a documentary at home, waiting for them to come back.
When the door opened, Tao Xiaodong was still talking to Tang Suoyan with his head up. When he heard the man coming back, he sat up straight and said, "You're back?"
Tao Huainan replied "Yes".
The two were in front of each other, Chi Cheng's clothes were left open, and the zipper hadn't been unzipped, so when he came in, he pulled the clothes first and put them on the chair. Tao Huainan was behind him, his nose was red, and he looked not lively at all.
This is different from what he expected... Tao Xiaodong looked up at Tang Suoyan and stood up from the carpet.
"Have you been drinking?" Xiaodong asked Tao Huainan.
"No drink," Tao Huainan kept his voice down, Tao Xiaodong reached out to take his coat, Tao Huainan leaned his blind stick on the door, changed his shoes and came in, "It's cold outside."
"The temperature is low today," Tao Xiaodong glanced at Chi Cheng who was going to wash his hands, and asked in a low voice, "Why are you messing with my brother?"
Tao Huainan was speechless, unable to speak, he could only lower his head and sigh lightly.
Tao Huainan followed Chi Cheng to wash his hands, he went in and Chi Cheng came out, and walked around him sideways.
After Chi Cheng went out, Tao Huainan squeezed the hand sanitizer and rubbed his hands, standing there with a frustrated expression on his face.
It's also... too small.
Today, all this happened to deliberately tease him. He didn't plan to drink at first, and he agreed to go home, but he was forcibly taken away, which is not counted, and Chi Cheng heard Jiang Ji's words.
Tao Huainan said "Get out" loudly, if this man keeps quiet and doesn't let him go, Tao Huainan will swing his blind stick.
With another long sigh, Tao Huainan turned off the tap and wiped his hands slowly.
Outside Tao Xiaodong was talking to Chi Cheng, Tao Huainan went over and sat directly between them, there was not enough space for him to sit, so the two brothers asked him to cover their buttocks.
"It's really squeezeable." Xiaodong smiled and patted him, and moved aside.
Chi Cheng also moved silently, and Tao Huainan said, "It's warm between you two."
Tang Suoyan sat on the single sofa by himself, flipped through this paper, and smiled lightly upon hearing this.
"Brother Tang laughed at you." Xiaodong said to him.
Tao Huainan rubbed his face, and after rubbing his hands casually put his hands on both sides of his body, one of his legs happened to be on one side.
No one paid attention to him, and it was impossible for someone to grab his hand and throw it away. Tao Xiaodong said, "Why is it so annoying?"
Tao Huainan became more courageous after Chi Cheng's silence pampered him during this period, which was quite different from his state when Chi Cheng came back last time.
Now that I have dared to go a little bit presumptuously within the boundary, it is different between having a bottom in my heart and not having a bottom.
Tao Xiaodong just started talking to Chi Cheng: "Tonight..."
Tao Huainan intercepted the words just now, and interjected softly, "It's fine for the two of us to sleep at night."
"Ah, I didn't say that." Tao Xiaodong went on to say, "If you work at night, you should close the curtains in the study room, the windows are not tightly seamed."
Chi Cheng said "hmm", "Got it."
Tao Huainan pursed his lips, not feeling embarrassed, and smiled to himself. Tao Xiaodong said to him: "Do you think there is an extra bedroom in this house without the two of you sharing the same room?"
Tao Huainan still smiled, and after a while leaned indistinctly towards Chi Cheng.
Chi Cheng lowered his eyes to look at him, his shoulders were tense, but the expression on his face was still cold enough.
Tao Huainan is like this on the surface, but in fact he has been feeling scared all the time. Although he likes Chi Cheng to be irritable and angry, it is not like this now. Now he is really angry.
The pajamas that Chi Cheng wore last time back have been left untouched in the cabinet, Tao Huainan just found out and gave it to him. When Chi Cheng took a shower, he knocked on the door, opened it and went in, and whispered, "I put the pajamas here for you, bro."
Chi Cheng ignored him, Tao Huainan closed the door again and went out.
After Chi Cheng came out of the wash, Tao Huainan was already sitting cross-legged on the bed and waiting, his face turned in his direction nervously.
Tao Huainan spread the quilt again to make the bed look tidy, and arranged the pillows he hugged every day. Chi Cheng glanced at him, didn't speak to him, and took the charger to charge his phone.
"That port is sometimes unstable..." Tao Huainan pointed to the socket on the wall next to his bed, "This is easy to use."
Chi Cheng then unplugged the charger, put one leg on the bed, and leaned over Tao Huainan to plug in the charger.
In an instant, the smell of the bath liquid on his body mixed with the damp water vapor, splashed on Tao Huainan's face, and his breath was full of Chi Cheng's smell. Tao Huainan was immediately speechless, and sat cautiously holding his breath, not daring to move.
However, the person just plugged in a charger, got up and left after finishing it, and didn't take it seriously at all. Tao Huainan secretly took a breath, and rubbed his hands gently on his knees.
It was still early, and I couldn't fall asleep, so Chi Cheng didn't turn off the light, but turned it to a less bright light, sitting by the bed and looking at his phone.
Tao Huainan set his pillow up and leaned against the head of the bed, making it look comfortable, touched Chi Cheng's shoulder, and called him, "Brother, lean here, your neck is tired from looking down so much."
Chi Cheng was indifferent and didn't turn his head.
Tao Huainan didn't play with his mobile phone, so he quietly accompanied him, and then sat silently behind Chi Cheng, with his legs next to Chi Cheng.
"Stay away from me." Chi Cheng said.
"Don't be angry..." Tao Huainan not only stayed away, but even got closer, his chin almost resting on Chi Cheng's shoulder, "I didn't mean to say that, I didn't know it was you."
Tao Huainan blinked, for some reason, he suddenly felt a little sad after saying this.
In the past, even if no one spoke, Tao Huainan could immediately tell that it was Chi Cheng. Different people feel different when holding his wrist, and everyone's hand is different.
He shouldn't have failed to recognize it. Even though he was actually flustered when someone grabbed his wrist suddenly, even though the environment was chaotic at that time, but Chi Cheng was Chi Cheng, he was brought up by this hand, and he couldn't recognize him.
Looking back now, it should be recognized immediately that it was the little brother's hand.
Tao Huainan gently put his chin on Chi Cheng's shoulder, like a sad animal.
"Are you sad?" He spoke softly, his chin rested on Chi Cheng's shoulder little by little, and his chin touched his shoulder, making it a little itchy, "I'm sorry... I made you sad again. "
I don't know if Chi Cheng is sad, but Tao Huainan is really sad now.
The sense of estrangement brought about by time and separation will not go away overnight. They are obviously the closest in the world, but now when Tao Huainan is being held, there is no surprise or excitement, and he just said "Get out".
Chi Cheng lowered his head, his gaze was still on the phone, but the screen of the phone turned black at some point. Chi Cheng's chin and a vague shadow of Tao Huainan were reflected on the screen.
Tao Huainan tentatively and carefully circled his hand, clutching Chi Cheng's pajamas vaguely.
"I don't usually fight with them, and I'm nobody else," Tao Huainan said, breathing a little on the back of Chi Cheng's neck, he didn't know it, "I'm your... puppy."
Tao Huainan's eyes were a little red, he felt sorry for Chi Cheng and himself.
"He sounds like you sometimes. When I miss you, I will listen to him sing." Tao Huainan confessed honestly, without lying, "He has a bad temper and always gets angry. I always want to think about it." Him, because he sounds like you the most when he's angry."
Chi Cheng took a breath, his voice was still quite cold, and he said with a smile, "He's close enough to come and go."
"No, no," Tao Huainan quickly shook his head, "Then how should I say it is appropriate... I'm afraid you won't like to hear my name."
"Don't tell me," Chi Cheng said, "You can't tell me."
"Yes!" Tao Huainan gripped his clothes a little harder, relying on Chi Cheng not to let go, "If I knew in advance that you were coming back, I would definitely not go anywhere, I wouldn't go out to eat, and go home early to wait for you."
Chi Cheng raised his eyebrows, turned his head and asked, "You don't know?"
"I don't know! Xiaodong didn't tell me you were coming back." Tao Huainan said sincerely, "I really don't know, otherwise I wouldn't have gone out."
Tao Huainan was really wronged, and today he was really wronged by his brother.
Xiaodong didn't know that he had screwed up the cub in that room, and he listened with his ears open, but he couldn't hear anything.
"The two of them can't be awkward again, can they?" Tao Xiaodong asked Tang Suoyan.
Tang Suo said, "No trouble."
Tao Huainan coaxed him for a long time, and finally Chi Cheng's shoulders were no longer so stiff, and there was an obvious tendency to soften them. Tao Huainan called "Brother" and continued to talk when the phone rang behind him.
He ignored his cell phone and asked, "When did you come back?"
Before Chi Cheng could answer, Tao Huainan's phone rang twice in succession.
Chicheng fell silent, so Tao Huainan had to take the phone, but he seemed guilty if he didn't listen, Tao Huainan prayed in his heart that it must not be Jiang Ji.
However, he has become like this today, so he must be afraid of something.
Jiang Ji drank too much, and uttered three voices in a row, yelling at him very loudly, which sounded like a little drunk.
— "Tao Huainan!"
— "If you don't come out usually, you should leave first for drinking. It's very difficult for you to invite now!"
—"You just mess with me, Brother Ji treats you well! Say it yourself! My mother...what did you want and I didn't give you anything? You are making faces with me now...you really think Brother Ji is worthless ? Ah? No matter how bad you are this time, the two of us will be fucking... fucked up!"
Tao Huainan's hands trembled after hearing the voice.
God... what is this all about!
Chi Cheng stood up and walked towards the door, Tao Huainan said "Hey!", and jumped off the ground to stop him. Chi Cheng lifted his arm and opened the door, and Tao Huainan pushed it shut again.
"He drank too much and talked nonsense!" Tao Huainan said in a low voice and hurriedly, "I guess he wanted to talk to someone, and he lost his mind after drinking too much!"
Chi Cheng's face turned completely cold, his brows were no longer wrinkled, and he just stood there looking at Tao Huainan with a cold face. His eyes swept over his face over and over again, his eyes were very indifferent.
Tao Huainan didn't know what to say, grabbed Chi Cheng's hand, and shook it up and down while talking: "Why are you against me!"
There was even a bit of grievance in the voice, and his chest heaved rapidly: "I finally hoped for you back, what are you doing all this time..."
I don't know how to explain it, and I don't know what else to say. I feel really wronged when I say this: "What's going on! How can I do it? Why is it so difficult for me!"
Tao Huainan's eyes were red, and his voice was unsteady, both anxious and angry. He held Chi Cheng's hand tightly and dared not let go, his lips were tightly pressed together, really angry.
Chi Cheng stood in front of him, looked down at Tao Huainan's panting more and more, and was so anxious that he was about to cry.
Tao Huainan frowned into a small knot, frustrated, wronged and angry, and felt that he was unlucky.
When Chi Cheng suddenly lowered his head and bit his lips fiercely, Tao Huainan was overwhelmed with shock, his frowning brows instantly parted, his eyes widened, and he blinked vigorously.
