Love may be the strongest wine, if you don't mix it with a drop of water, it will burn your internal organs with one mouthful, and you will be eager to do anything. Xie Lanshan said that cohabitation is going to be cohabitation. Taking advantage of the weekend, he took the initiative to help Shen Liufei sort out the moving things.

He was so busy that his sleeves were rolled up, and he was so happy that Shen Liufei fell into the fish tank without haste to feed the goldfish - again sent by his female student. It’s been a while since the public welfare course of the Crane Art Museum ended, but the girls’ enthusiasm for “chasing the stars” is still high, and there are not enough flowers and grasses. This time, even living things were sent.

In the round bathtub were two chubby little fish, one black with red and the other golden all over, with a sarcoma towering high on the top of their heads, which seemed to be a rare species. Xie Lanshan asked, "How did those girls think of giving you goldfish?"

"Maybe I copied a painting in the last class, Klimt's Goldfish." In the setting sun, Shen Liufei lowered his eyelashes and fed the fish. Bar."

Xu Beihong copied Rembrandt, Feng Zhen copied Matisse, and Xie Lanshan had seen this painting copied by Shen Liufei. There are three beautiful nude women in the painting. A sensual buttock occupies a large proportion of the picture, and the style is quite similar. Bold. According to Shen Liufei, the female nude is the main theme of this painting, and there is no additional meaning.

Xie Lanshan had little interest in painting, and turned around to find some original English books and vinyl records, neatly packed in a cardboard box, looking untouched for a long time. He asked Shen Liufei whether to reserve it, Shen Liufei glanced at it lightly, and replied, "These can be thrown away."

"Your preferences are really strange." Xie Lanshan picked at random in the cardboard box, picked out the thickest English version of "History of Art", turned two pages and was not interested, and took out another one.

A photo fell out of the middle page. On it was a woman with quite outstanding eyebrows and a little boy who was estimated to be eight or nine years old sitting in her arms.

Xie Lanshan guessed that the woman was Shen Liufei's mother, so he raised the photo and compared it according to Shen Liufei. He murmured to himself, "Why don't you look anything like your mother—"

Shen Liufei reacted quickly, and without waiting for him to compare, he grabbed the photo and put it in the breast pocket of his shirt. He took the bait for the fish and didn't say a word.

Xie Lanshan touched his chin and looked at Shen Liufei's profile. This face was cold and calm, but still had an unpredictable look. He was a little angry, and the other party's refusal to approach him made him angry.

Xie Lanshan resisted his temper and was pompous: "You told me in the future that it has already passed so many times, can't you tell?"

Shen Liufei looked at Xie Lanshan and said calmly, "She is a woman who is so gentle that she is almost weak, a wife who is submissive, and a mother who is unhappy."

"anything else?"

Seeing that Shen Liufei didn't want to go further on this issue, he frowned and pursed his lips. The two men confronted each other silently for a moment. Fortunately, a doorbell broke the strange silence.

A young man stood outside the door with a basket of fruits in his hand. As soon as he saw Xie Lanshan, he laughed and said in a nice voice, "Neighbor, can I ask you a favor."

The man wears black-rimmed glasses, his nose is slightly flat, but his eyes are bright, looking well-dressed and polite. He enthusiastically put the fruit basket in Xie Lanshan's hands, introduced himself as Qiao Hui, and lived in Room 803 of this building.

No merit and no reward, Xie Lanshan did not move, and asked with his eyes: What help

Qiao Hui scratched his head in embarrassment and said that he was going to confess to the woman he liked, so he had a sudden idea and planned to use the lights of each house in this hotel-style apartment building to put on the "I Love u" at 8 o'clock tonight. ", and the "love" in the middle is represented by a heart. This requires the residents of a building to cooperate with turning on or off the lights at this time. In short, it is old-fashioned romance, but it is romantic.

Because the location is good and the house price is very expensive, the occupancy rate of this apartment is not too high, and it is not too difficult to implement. Qiao Hui negotiated with the apartment manager, and the manager was willing to help him control the lights in the vacant room, but if there was a guest room, he had to come to the house in person.

The room that Shen Liufei lived in happened to be the top stroke of the letter "I". Qiao Hui said that as long as he opened the curtains and turned on the lights for five minutes, five minutes would be enough for him to finish his confession.

Xie Lanshan has a heart for the beauty of an adult, and Shen Liufei has no objection. He walked over, nodded politely at the person, and accepted the fruit basket.

"Thank you, thank you very much! You are the last family, and the neighbors are very helpful, and they all agreed!" Qiao Hui was full of joy, nodded and bowed repeatedly, pointed to a business card in the fruit basket and said, "I'm Pu The doctor of Ren Hospital, there is a place where you can use a headache and fever in the future, feel free to come to me!" He realized that he had said something inauspicious, and immediately laughed again, "Of course, it is better not to use it."

People came politely and left politely. When Qiao Hui left and the door slammed shut, Xie Lanshan wanted to continue the topic just now. But this time, he knew how to retreat. He leaned on the sofa, took out a shiny apple from the fruit basket, wiped it on his chest, and took a crisp bite. He chewed the sweet and juicy pulp and muttered: "I'm not too young, and I'm studying medicine. I didn't expect to be so romantic. It's rare."

This roundabout was a bit farther, but Shen Liufei still guessed that Xie Lanshan had something to say, he leaned over without saying a word, and restrained Xie Lanshan's neck like a rein.

The bitten apple rolled to the ground, of course Xie Lanshan resisted, he lowered his head and bit Shen Liufei's arm, and took a hard bite. The teeth are quite powerful, Shen Liufei frowned and took the sharp pain, and pressed it again. A dull thunder rolled across the sky, and the two embraced, tore each other, and rolled to the ground.

It was clear that he wanted to use his physical body to prevaricate the question, but this trick worked. Xie Lanshan's unpleasant pimples were also healed by a series of hot and dense kisses.

The doorbell rang again at an untimely time. Xie Lanshan, who was in high spirits, let out a swear word in a low voice. He got up, muttered, "Why don't you just tell me?", and impatiently went to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, Xie Lanshan's eyes lit up fiercely.

The man outside the door is tall and straight, looking a little older than Shen Liufei, but he is undoubtedly a beautiful man, or to put it more directly, Xie Lanshan has lived for nearly 30 years, and he has never seen such a man who can make others into the soles of shoes. .

The other party seemed to recognize him, his eyes also brightened ambiguously, and an elegant smile floated on his lips: "Hello, Officer Xie."

Xie Lanshan said in surprise: "We know each other?"

Shen Liufei heard the sound and came over, seeing the person who came, his footsteps stopped for a moment, and his face was stunned.

This momentary change in expression fell into Xie Lanshan's eyes impartially, stirring his heart and causing ripples of doubt.

"This is a friend I met in the United States, a neurosurgery expert who works for the U.S. military, Duan Licheng." Shen Liufei did not introduce Xie Lanshan to the other party. He looked at the man outside the door, and there was not a trace of joy in meeting his old friend. His expression was always serious, "I didn't expect you to return to China so soon."

Xie Lanshan wanted to greet Duan Licheng to enter the house, but Shen Liufei, who was behind him, issued an order to evict guests: "We still have some things to discuss, you go back first."

Xie Lanshan was stunned for a moment: "But it's going to rain outside."

Seeing Xie Lanshan stunned, Shen Liufei handed over the umbrella hanging by the door, and added comfortingly, "Wait for my news."

This attitude actually meant to draw a clear line, Xie Lanshan was sensitively aware that Shen Liufei had something to hide, but he did not hesitate. He didn't want the other party's umbrella, and he didn't pick up his coat that fell on the floor. He left as soon as he said it. He went back to the hall and picked up Shen Liufei's fish tank. With a willful tone of revenge, he smiled and said: "I Take it back to feed your son."

Before leaving, he turned back and looked at Shen Liufei, who seemed to have changed his mind.

"There is a saying that in one's life, it is not uncommon to encounter love and sex, but understanding is what is rare. I used to think this was too sour, but now I think it makes sense." , Xie Lanshan put on a serious face and said, "I like you, not only because of the high hormones."

Just after leaving the apartment building, and before the return journey was far, Tiangong was joking, and a cold rain poured down. A girl got out of a taxi, obviously eager to shelter from the rain, and ran hurriedly with her head down. She was wearing a lotus root pink cardigan, a black tight-fitting long skirt, and a black handbag with a ribbed pattern on her shoulders. Due to the slippery road in the rain, the soles of her feet were unstable, and she slammed into Xie Lanshan's arms.

Xie Lanshan went to help the other party very gentlemanly. As a result, his arm was scratched by the girl's sharp fingernails, and the blood was seeping out. The bathtub he was holding was also sacrificed heroically. It fell into the gutter, another fish fluttered twice, was carried away by the stagnant water on the ground, and followed the sacrifice.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry..." The girl looked up and saw Xie Lanshan clearly in front of her, her eyes suddenly showing surprise, "Is it you?"

The girl looked at Twenty Lang when she was old, fair and delicate, with long black hair that was thick like a waterfall. Although I can't name it, Xie Lanshan recognizes this face. She and Shen Liufei lived in the same apartment building, and they occasionally met in the elevator, and they smiled closer to each other.

"Your fish... Why don't you leave me your contact information and let me buy the same fish as compensation for you." The girl put her palms together, blinked her eyes, and showed a pitiful begging gesture. She insisted on keeping Xie Lanshan's contact information, and kept saying that she wanted to compensate the two goldfish that fell into the sewers. In fact, she was in love with beauty and took the opportunity to strike up a conversation.

Xie Lanshan didn't say anything, just smiled and said, "I live in 2103, my neighbor."

He reported Shen Liufei's address.

Seeing that it was raining heavily, the two hurriedly parted. The world was dark in the rain, but the girl's heart was shaking, and she couldn't take back the gaze that followed the tall and straight back for a long time. For fear of forgetting the simple four numbers and unable to find the pen, she even took out the eyeliner and wrote it down in the palm of her hand.

No matter how bad the weather was, it couldn't extinguish the fire of the girl's heart. She hummed a song happily, turned and walked towards home.

Drenched from head to toe, Xie Lanshan hurriedly trotted to hide under the eaves, but the rain stopped in time, leaving only a sticky body that smelled of earth.

He looked at his watch, it was ten minutes before eight o'clock, thinking that there was no one at home at this time, and thinking of the little doctor who was so romantic and foolish, he decided to wait and see his feat of showing love.

As soon as eight o'clock arrived, Shen Liufei's apartment building turned on the lights on time.

Xie Lanshan soon discovered that the heart in the center was missing a closed piece, and one room did not light up as promised.
