One must-eat thing in early summer is white jade cantaloupe. When you hear the name, you can think of its shape, with a round or oval melon body, smooth and greasy tentacles, no thorns, no hair, and a yellowish jade color in the white. Peeling the skin makes the melon more translucent, but often the flesh is not so sweet, and the flesh is the most delicious but easily discarded part.

The white jade cantaloupe grown in the plastic greenhouse is not exposed to wind and rain, but also has a constant temperature all the year round. Although the melons and fruits are beautiful, Zhou Zheng still feels that they are not sweet in that sense and in that sense. Lin Shuangyu knows how to grow it at home, and it will inevitably grow out of leprosy, but it tastes better than anywhere else. Everything is in half, and the juice is dripping. Find someone to share the half.

Lin Shuangyu sent Guatuo to the Fourth Bureau of the Iron and Steel Bureau, and the person put the things in the security room, left a name and hurried away. By the time Qiao Fengtian answered the security guard's call, Guo Guo had been lying in the security room for two or three days.

"You're not staying here, are you?" There was a new security guard, young and strong in Mandarin. People are too afraid of the heat, so it doesn't count if the air conditioner is turned on, and there is a buzzing shaking head fan on the case.

Qiao Fengtian was stunned by the artificial cool wind, "It's transferred, I'm afraid it's being renovated now."

"Oh, the decoration one." The little security guard nodded, "I said, the last time I knocked on the door, a bunch of bricklayers were squatting there. I said I was looking for someone named Qiao, and he told me something about Qiao, I don't know Joe. With the surname Qiao, I thought I was looking for the wrong place!"

"I'm bothering you."

"Oh, it's a trivial matter, hurry up and move the things away. It's a pity that my air conditioner is constantly running 24 hours a day, or else it's broken." I couldn't help but giggled with Qiao Fengtian in a low voice, "Public appliances, No need to be white."

"It's uncomfortable when it blows too much." Qiao Fengtian hunched over to move it. It wasn't a big corrugated box, and it was only when he got started that he felt the sinking, "It's not as comfortable as the natural wind."

"Isn't that true? Isn't the air conditioner sick all the time now? People are also cheap." The security guard raised the brim of his hat, brushed off a damp lock of hair, and opened the door for Qiao Fengtian, "Blowing sick, not blowing, also If you get sick, you won't get better. Go slow."

"You are busy."

Qiao Fengtian saw that a random "Joe" was written with a marker on the corrugated cardboard box, and there were no more words. It was Lin Shuangyu's brushwork. Halfway through, he touched the wet sticky hands at the bottom of the box, thinking that it was because the fruit was broken and the juice was flowing. Qiao Fengtian tore a piece of yellow tape and looked inside.

Langxi does not produce cherries, but there are always one or two wild trees growing in the mountains. When the season is here, the round beads of oily, bright red are adorned with branches, and you have to take the lead in picking up the basket. It depends on luck, and it is difficult to ensure that others will be more envious. Go ahead, and then go, there is only one place left. Scattered and ruined red of the soil.

The bag containing the cherries was turned out of the box, and there was a smell of almost fermented wine koji. When I touched the light red juice, I turned around and saw the word "zhi" written on the bag. Lin Shuangyu sent it to Xiao Wuzi to try it out, but the luck of this thing was bad, and it was "killed" in the middle of the journey.

When I got home, I didn't expect to meet Zheng Siyi.

Qiao Fengtian had never seen her before, and saw that she carried a basket of delicately packaged triangular dumplings, entered the fifth unit with him, got on the elevator on the left together, and pressed the same floor together. When he pressed the button, Qiao Fengtian obviously felt that the other party raised his eyebrows and looked at him up and down. I couldn't help but look at the round bun neatly tied behind the other's head and look at the facial features. After all, a compatriot, Qiao Fengtian suddenly saw that she and Zheng Siqi were similar.

He has a sister, and I heard Xiao Wuzi say it.

When he stopped in front of the same door, Qiao Fengtian panicked for a while, and staggered halfway from her, not knowing whether to advance or retreat. The hand that reached into his trouser pocket for the key also stopped. This key was given to him by Zheng Siqi when he just moved in, a spare set at home.

"You are?"

Zheng Siyi glanced at Qiao Fengtian behind him, then glanced at the box in his hand, and then reached out and rang the doorbell.

Qiao Fengtian didn't know what to say.

"I-I'll bring something here."

"That's it, then we are coincidental." Zheng Siyi nodded with a smile, and rang the doorbell again, "Is it a colleague or a friend of Si Qi? Seeing that you are young, it can't be him who learned—"

As soon as the door opened, Zheng Siqi was also stunned.

"You..." Go and ask Zheng Siyi first, "Why did you come here without saying a word?"

Zheng Siyi first went into the room to change his shoes, and put the basket he was carrying on the shoe cabinet, "The Dragon Boat Festival rice dumplings sent by the unit, I brought you a basket of candied dates after get off work, I'll deliver it to my dad at night, or you can deliver it. I'm too lazy to run."

After taking off one of his shoes, he tugged on the stockings that had strayed before he remembered, turned around and pointed to the door, "Ah, when a friend of yours told you to send you something, you said it was a coincidence, you are getting older today. Pack a small bag and collect a bunch."

Zheng Siqi saw Qiao Fengtian standing at the door looking at him, his fingers tapped on the cardboard box.

"Come in, there are mosquitoes outside."

Zheng Siqi helped him move the box with one hand and held his hand with the other. Qiao Fengtian was caught off guard by his grip, and after reacting, he struggled and pulled out five fingers from his palm. He hurriedly looked at Zheng Siyi, who had his back turned to him, and then at Zheng Siqi—you're crazy.

Zheng Siqi looked as usual, rubbed the top of his head, and smiled.

"Where's Zao'er?" Zheng Siyi took the lead in the kitchen, brushed the soft hair that fell from the back of his neck, and opened the refrigerator door.

"I'm playing in the house." Zheng Siqi supported Qiao Fengtian on his back to lead him in, stroked his back again, and turned his head to his ear, "What are you worried about, my sister, it's alright."

"Oh my darling, the comet hit the earth!" Zheng Siyi held on to the refrigerator door and was happy, "You can also stuff the refrigerator so full for a day? Why, it looks good? Why would you just stuff it so full and put it away? Don't you have to throw it away?!"

"Can't you encourage sarcasm as a supplement?" Zheng Siqi poured water into Zheng Siyi from a cup, raised his head and smiled at Qiao Fengtian, "Would you please bring me the can of tea on the table in the room?"

Qiao Fengtian nodded, glanced at the door of the study, then bypassed the coffee table and went to Zheng Siqi's bedroom.

Panic, nervous, and suddenly I feel like I'm out of order. For a second, Qiao Fengtian still felt that Zheng Siyi's movements of entering the house, changing shoes and opening the refrigerator were so smooth and mature, it was almost a grand gesture. But in the next second, it was as if he could see an over-interpreted sneer and sarcasm under the other party's similar facial features to Zheng Siqi. Who is grand, isn't it obvious at a glance

The position disappeared all of a sudden, and I immediately became out of place.

Qiao Fengtian sat on Zheng Siqi's back chair for a while, bent his legs to his chest, and wiped the edges and corners of the table with a piece of tissue paper. Everything is Zheng Siqi's, the space is also Zheng Siqi's, the taste is also his, and the temperament is also his. Qiao Fengtian's nest is calm here. Say hide, be it.

Never thought about it before, gay love is like this. When meeting relatives and close friends of one party, new knowledge and old rain, the first thing to consider is not my hair style today, my inappropriate clothes today, can I give a calm impression, full of goodwill, the other party is willing to put his The second half of my life is handed over to me, to give blessings, to be tolerant and accepting

Instead, he panicked and wanted to prove the legitimacy and rationality of his existence. But this is neither a formula to overthrow, nor a pile of stereotyped materials to be paid by the police station to obtain a certificate. This is purely dependent on an indescribable confidence, derived from academic qualifications, family, social status, and socially inclusive sexual orientation.

Qiao Fengtian has seen many homosexuals, and they live very recklessly, flamboyantly and aggressively. But sometimes when I look at them, I feel that their confidence is a castle in the air, swaying, like the bigger the balloon is, the easier it is to burst. And Qiao Fengtian put his posture too low from the beginning, so that it is difficult to raise it now. In the past ten years, I have been questioning myself, and my whole body is full of flaws. If I get caught a little bit, I can't help but throw away my armor and flee.

The fact is that Zheng Siqi is gentle, but social scrutiny is cruel. But pessimism is not advisable, because it can be said in reverse, social scrutiny is cruel, but Zheng Siqi is gentle. With such a change, the tone, situation, and mentality seem to have undergone earth-shaking changes. Leng Su became warm, rigidity became vivid, from nowhere to go, it became bright and bright. Believe is important.

Qiao Fengtian poked the stamens of the gardenia on the table and sniffed his fingers, it was very fragrant. This kind of flower fragrance is really deceptive, dripping and sincere, and it doesn't even think about how to save room after exhaustion.

Qiao Fengtian took the tea jar out of the door.

"I put it on the table."

Zheng Siyi was wearing an apron around her waist, and when she saw Qiao Fengtian, she smiled politely at him, "Don't leave at night, stay here for dinner, and I'll cook something for you? Ah? Everything in the refrigerator is ready-made. "

Zheng Siqi was about to speak when Qiao Fengtian waved his hand first.

"It's alright, I'll wait and go."

Zheng Siqi secretly twisted his arm and asked him in a low voice, "Where are you going? Don't go."

"I'm going to the store to bring something to Du Dong." Grabbing his hand on his arm, "My little five son and I don't eat at home at night, and I'll come back later with cantaloupe in the box, my grandma herself Plant, eat before meals."

Zheng Siqi glanced at Zheng Siyi who had entered the kitchen, with obvious reluctance and reluctance on his face.

"You don't have to worry about your position, really, you don't have to hide."

Qiao Fengtian smiled, "I didn't want to hide."

Qiao Fengtian quietly called Xiao Wuzi out of the room, and after a silence, he led him to change his shoes and go out. He instructed him to take the elevator downstairs and wait at the door, and then turned back to the door to see Zheng Siqi leaning on the door frame and watching him not speak.

"I'm not hiding today. I really don't care if I'm known to your family sooner or later, the result will be there sooner or later, I can guess, it's actually the same. You have your plans, I just don't want to. push you too hard."

"I'm really not in a hurry to ask you to reveal my identity or anything. I'm not a big girl, and I don't care about that. I just want to say... Your situation is different from mine. I've known for a long time. There will be no pressure, but you have, you are much older than me. Therefore, when you consider these issues, you can't focus on me, you must focus on them. "

"Your family loves you, and for your own good, is always more thoughtful than me, so you must look ahead and back on these things." Qiao Fengtian felt that what he said was chaotic and illogical, and made a plausible gesture, " I don't know if you understand what I'm saying, I guess you should understand..."

Zheng Siqi paused for a long time, then pulled Qiao Fengtian's neck and quickly put it on his mouth.

At the end, he sighed, "Understood, I'll pick you up at night."
