The meteorological bureau's forecast was very accurate, and the temperature dropped sharply in the second half of the night.
At five o'clock, Han Cheng woke up once, he was not worried about Xia Tian, afraid that he would freeze.
Han Cheng got up, put on a coat and left the bedroom. He walked through the corridor and gently pushed open the door of Xia Tian's room.
In the depths of winter, it was still dark at five o'clock in the morning. Han Cheng was worried about waking up Xia Tian, so he didn't turn on the night light. He just looked at the person on the bed through the dim light of the phone screen.
Fortunately, Xia Tian obediently took out the thick quilt and put it on before going to bed. It shouldn't be cold. Han Cheng tucked the corner of the quilt for him, covered Xia Tian with the clothes he was wearing, and turned to leave the bedroom.
Han Cheng didn't know that when he went back to his room, Aunt Li, who was coming upstairs, caught her eyes.
Aunt Li at home is already in her fifties this year.
When she was younger, she was the nanny of the Han house. Later, after Han Cheng returned to China, he moved out of the old house. Ruan Sihe was worried, so he asked Aunt Li to follow him. The aunt took care of him during this transitional period, so that the newly hired aunt would not be able to cook Han Cheng, and asked Aunt Li to go back after a few months. But in those two years, Han Cheng and Ruan Sihe were busy day and night, and gradually forgot. After this crop, Aunt Li stayed, and it has been nearly ten years in a flash.
Aunt Li is getting older and sleeps less at night. She can't fall asleep at four or five o'clock every day. She gets up to clean and tidy up breakfast.
Normally, she would definitely not come upstairs at this time, so as not to wake up Han Cheng and Xia Tian, but today the temperature dropped so badly that she was afraid that they would be freezing, so she wanted to go upstairs to see if the central thermostat was on.
I don't want to see Han Cheng come out of Xia Tian's room and go back to his own room before finishing the stairs.
Aunt Li instantly understood what was going on.
With a smile on her face, she went downstairs feeling relieved.
A few years ago, Aunt Li was doing the daily shopping at home. In the past two years, she couldn't keep up physically, so the burden was handed over to the driver at home. Every morning, Aunt Li made a list of things to buy, handed them to the driver, and the driver bought them and brought them back.
After Aunt Li went downstairs, she added a few more ingredients to today's menu.
At 6:30, Xia Tian woke up in a daze, looked at the clothes covered by the quilt, and realized after a while... Han Cheng visited him last night.
The indoor temperature was indeed much lower, and Han Cheng was worried about him.
Xia Tian picked up the clothes, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously picked up.
After explaining their hearts to each other, Xia Tian has a new understanding of Han Cheng every day.
Han Cheng is actually a person who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside.
Except for the confession in the study room, Han Cheng seldom uttered warm and nasty words, not only that, but occasionally he had a bit of a poisonous tongue, and when he took advantage of Xia Tian's words, he could make people bully so hard that they couldn't hold their heads up. In the end, all that was left was Han Cheng's tenderness.
The longer we spend together, the more Xia Tian can feel Han Cheng's delicacy. He can frankly show his strong love for Xia Tian in front of outsiders, and he can also be thoughtful and silent in the middle of the night when no one is around.
Xia Tian rolled happily on the bed with the clothes that Han Cheng left in his room, and got up happily.
At seven o'clock in the morning, Xia Tian's cheeks were slightly red, and she went downstairs with Han Cheng's clothes.
Aunt Li had just arranged the breakfast, when she raised her eyes and saw the clothes in Xia Tian's hands, she smiled knowingly.
In fact, she didn't quite understand why Han Cheng had to go back to his room before dawn, maybe it was because of the love between the young couple
Or maybe Xia Tian was young and thin-skinned, afraid that he would see Han Cheng come out of his room in the morning
Aunt Li couldn't figure it out, she was afraid that Xia Tian would be even more embarrassed after piercing this layer of window paper, so she pretended she didn't see anything, and went back to her room by herself.
Xia Tian sat down and smiled at Han Cheng: "Did you come to see me last night? Are you afraid that I will freeze?"
"I'm afraid you'll catch another cold." Han Cheng smiled, "Eat quickly."
Xia Tian looked at the breakfast on the table, dumbfounded: "Why are there so many tricks today..."
In the middle of the dining table is a small casserole of steaming wolfberry black chicken soup, on the left are two drawers of small steamed buns stuffed with mutton, on the right are two drawers of siu mai with dried shrimps, scallops and fungus, and next to them are two plates of soft and delicious red beans Sand yam cake, in front of the two of them, there is a bowl of black bean and chestnut fragrant rice porridge for each of them.
It's full, full of good medicine for strengthening the waist and tonifying the kidney.
Han Cheng snorted and ate a bowl of porridge with two pieces of yam cake without touching the pot of wolfberry and black chicken soup or steamed mutton buns.
Xia Tian was inexperienced and ignorant of the world, so he didn't realize the deep meaning of this table of medicinal food, his belly was slightly full after eating, and he understood: "Aunt Li is really considerate."
Han Cheng was taken aback, pressed the corner of his mouth lightly with a napkin, and said, "What do you mean?"
"I know I've worked hard recently, and I've made such a rich breakfast." Xia Tian had a big appetite, and one person ate for two, looking at Han Cheng and saying, "You only eat this?"
Han Cheng smiled lightly and said, "I don't like to eat such greasy things in the morning."
"That's right... Auntie may be watching the winter, and I'm afraid that you will eat too much vegetarian food and your immunity will be low." Xia Tian gave Han Cheng a bowl of soup, "I just tasted it, and it's not greasy."
Han Cheng smiled, and gently pushed the small soup bowl away: "I've already eaten. After you finish eating, go and change your clothes. Wear thicker clothes."
Xia Tian agreed, and went upstairs to change clothes and get a schoolbag after eating.
Han Cheng sent Xia Tian to class as usual.
After watching Xia Tian enter the school gate, the driver turned around and sent Han Cheng to the company.
Han Cheng called Ruan Sihe and explained that he would go back with him next summer.
After the two got together, Han Cheng found an opportunity to tell Ruan Sihe about the two of them.
Ruan Sihe liked Xia Tian at first, but she was afraid that Han Cheng would find some dubious person to come back in the future. She was naturally happy. She repeatedly told Han Cheng to get along well with Xia Tian, and told him that Zhou Yun should not act too hastily. A buffer of time, she'll take it.
Ruan Sihe asked about Xia Tian's taboos, etc., and planned to stay for two days before she went to Zhou Yun's house together, what gifts would be better to bring.
Listening to Ruan Si and Xu Xu's chatter, Han Cheng suddenly felt that the New Year was getting stronger. It was a lively experience that had never been seen in previous years. This feeling was rare for Han Cheng, and he looked forward to the new year.
After hanging up the phone, Han Cheng satirized himself in his heart. What he was looking forward to was actually not the Chinese New Year at all.
The drunken man's intention is not to drink.
Han Cheng had something to do at noon, and he had to stay at school to make up lessons in summer. The two of them were busy with their own things. To pick up Xia Tian to go home.
After returning home, as expected... the dinner was even better than the morning, and it was much richer and healthier.
Xia Tian marveled at the Han family's profound Nian culture, and sighed while eating: "Uncle Han, does your family always mend like this when it's the twelfth lunar month? It's like confinement?"
Han Cheng shook his head and clarified quietly: "No, but newlyweds may prepare this way during their honeymoon."
Xia Tian was stunned for a moment, looking at the bowl of rare soft-shelled turtle soup in front of him that he had already drank more than half, and instantly... had an epiphany.
"Although I don't know what auntie misunderstood." Han Cheng picked some light meals for himself and said, "However, even if we are really on the 'honeymoon', I don't need to eat these things."
Han Cheng looked at the blushing Xia Tian and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Xia Xia put aside the soft-shelled turtle soup in his hand, and followed Han Cheng to eat vegetarian dishes.
That night, Xia Tian's classmate, who had been working hard for more than a month, was distracted.
I don't know if the table of nourishing meals played a role, or Han Cheng's suggestion was more disturbing. In the summer of just half a year of adulthood, something discordant always popped up in my mind that night.
Not to mention, because of the cold weather, the two moved their workplace from the study to the summer room tonight—the summer room used to be a baby room, and there were more floor heating pipes in the house than other rooms.
Xia Tian imagined the scene where Han Cheng came to his room to tuck the quilt for him last night, and felt warm and ambiguous.
Xia Tian is no longer a child, he has already understood what he should understand, and now he and Han Cheng are in love with each other, "that aspect" has long been thought about.
It's just that Han Cheng has been very restrained in this regard, and he doesn't seem to be particularly interested, so Xia Tian didn't have the nerve to mention it, and wanted to wait and let nature take its course.
But today he somehow wanted to be intimate with Han Cheng.
"The temperature in the room is much better today. You shouldn't feel cold. Just don't kick the quilt at night." Han Cheng closed his textbook, looked at the time and said, "It will be twelve o'clock soon, you should go to bed early, I will go back first..."
"You today..." Xia Tian's heart thumped, his voice couldn't be lower, "Can you... not go back?"
Xia Tian tried his best to behave calmly, but the springbok in his heart had already turned upside down.
Han Cheng froze for a moment, looking at Xia Tian with a bit of unspeakable desire for an instant.
He took a deep breath, restrained the beast | desire in his heart, glanced up and down Xia Tian and laughed softly: "Tonight's bowl of soft-shelled turtle soup, did it work?"
Xia Tian blushed, annoyed that he said something stupid impulsively again, he smiled dryly and wanted to take back his previous words: "I just suddenly..."
"Of course I can simply accompany you. It's okay to help you with some private matters. Others..." Han Cheng looked at Xia Tian with burning eyes, "You have to go to class tomorrow, don't seduce me anymore , let me be a beast, okay?"
Xia Tian subconsciously said: "I didn't even go to class..."
"If you don't see the coffin, you won't cry." Han Cheng smiled, raised his hand and rubbed Xia Tian's lips lightly, "Do you listen to me? If you don't listen, I will leave."
Xia Tian blushed and nodded: "Listen..."
That night, Han Cheng didn't come out of Xia Tian's room again.
