My Roommate Seems to Like Me

Chapter 18: Chapter 18

The surrounding area of the villa is relatively quiet, and there are not many pedestrians in the early morning.

Jiang Zhong's hand was curled up in Xi Qin's pocket, wrapped in Xi Qin's palm.

Fortunately, the coats he and Xi Qin were wearing were thick enough. If you didn't look carefully, you would think they were relatively close.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhong relaxed a little, and gradually reduced the strength of his curled fingers.

Xi Qin took the opportunity to insert his fingers into Jiang Zhong's, and clasped his fingers tightly.

Jiang Zhong could feel Xi Qin's beating pulse coming from the joint of his hands, and I believe Xi Qin could feel his too.

The beating frequency of the two hearts gradually became the same, with the same intensity.

Jiang Chong's ears turned red: "...ahem."

"Be patient," Xi Qin said worriedly, "There is no shop near your house, so you have to walk for a while."

"Yes." Jiang Zhong replied softly.

"Don't run so fast next time," Xi Qin squeezed Jiang Zhong's hand, "The ground is full of snow, what if you slip?"

Only then did Jiang Zhong realize that the snow that fell last night was really heavy, and the road, bushes, and branches were all covered with a thick layer.

Just now when he went out, he only felt that everything was white, but what he was thinking in his heart was that he had to meet Xi Qin quickly, and he had no time to appreciate the painting that Chuxue had painted in one night. Only now did he realize that the landscape formed by nature is really beautiful It is pleasing to the eye.

And he is running towards Xi Qin who is waiting for him in the painting, his two hearts are hot in the cold wind, and his hands are clasped tightly in the dark.

It has become a stroke that has just been added to the painting.

Walk about 400 meters east from the villa area, and after turning a corner, you arrive at another street. The first floors on both sides of this street are facades.

Several shops were holding New Year's Day activities, pedestrians came and went, Jiang Zhong and Xi Qin let go of their holding hands.

In front of the deserted store, there are a few children making snowmen. Jiang Zhong put his hands into his coat pocket, and walked while looking at the "snow monster" who was so piled up that it couldn't be called a "human".

"Have you had breakfast here?" Xi Qin asked him, "Which one tastes better?"

Jiang Zhong: "... I haven't eaten."

Although his family lives very close to here, he seldom comes here to buy things.

Before going to college, breakfast was either eaten at home, or bought at the school, or not eaten.

After going to college, I didn't have the opportunity to come here for breakfast.

"You can just find one." Jiang Zhong said casually. Although he doesn't eat some things, he is not very picky about his taste.

Just when the two walked in front of a breakfast shop, Jiang Zhong lightly bumped Xi Qin's arm: "Let's go to this one."

It was already past the peak time for breakfast, and there were only a few scattered people sitting in the store.

Xi Qin asked Jiang Zhong to choose a seat to sit down, and went to the front desk to order food by himself.

Jiang Zhong was secretly happy. Xi Qin's behavior of ordering food without asking his opinion just proved that he knew what Jiang Zhong liked to eat and what he didn't like.

When Xi Qin came over after ordering the meal, he brought a cup of hot water and put it in front of Jiang Zhong: "Drink some water to moisten your throat first."

Jiang Zhong was a little embarrassed to look directly into Xi Qin's eyes, and took the water glass with a smile.

"Be careful it's hot." Xi Qin added.

He's not a three-year-old child, does he need to be instructed word by word

Jiang Zhong complained in his heart, but his eyes were crooked with a smile.

Jiang Zhong felt it, the water was just right, it should be that Xi Qin mixed cold water and boiled water.

"Cough." Jiang Zhong coughed lightly, and his throat felt much better after drinking the hot water.

The heating in the store is fully turned on, the decoration style is quite individual, the tables are wiped clean, and the jars are full of chili oil and vinegar...

Jiang Zhong was thinking in a mess in his head, without logic at all, his eyes flicked around, and he could barely see what was in the trash can.

He just didn't look at Xi Qin who was sitting across from him.

A bit embarrassing.JPG

Obviously he and Xi Qin often ate together before, obviously he talked a lot before, and obviously the two of them didn't talk before and it wouldn't be as embarrassing as it is now.

"Tch." Xi Qin on the opposite side laughed softly.

Jiang Zhong paused.

"Jiang Zhong?"

Jiang Zhong could catch a glimpse of Xi Qin staring at him right out of the corner of his eye: "Huh?"

"You today..." Xi Qin thought for a moment, "You don't talk much."

"The throat is uncomfortable." Jiang Zhong said.

Xi Qin nodded and asked again: "Then why don't you look at me?"

Jiang Zhong argued: "I didn't always look at you before."

Xi Qin nodded again, and said softly, "But you haven't seen it once today."

Nonsense, he looked at it for a long time when he first saw it.

Jiang Zhong thought about his words: "Well... you are no different today, what's the difference if you don't see it?"

Xi Qin didn't nod this time, Jiang Zhong saw him lower his head from the corner of his eye.

"Are you regretting it?" Xi Qin's voice sounded very low.

"Ah?" Jiang Zhong couldn't care less about the embarrassment now, he suddenly raised his head to look at Xi Qin's forehead hair that was hanging down to cover his eyebrows because his head was lowered.

"I'm sorry." Xi Qin said in a low voice, "I didn't give you more time to think about it last night, and I came here without telling you today, if you—"

"I didn't!" Jiang Zhong interrupted him, his voice a little louder, causing other people in the store to turn their heads to look over.

Jiang Zhong made a sorry expression and lowered his volume: "I don't regret it, I'm just... sorry."

Xi Qin lowered his head and said nothing.

Jiang Zhong smiled shyly: "Actually, I was very happy that you were able to... like that last night, and I am also very happy that you came to see me today."

"Really?" Xi Qin asked with his head down, "Really happy?"

"Yeah." Jiang Zhong nodded hurriedly.

"That's good." After Xi Qin finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at Jiang Zhong with a smile.

There is no downcast look, the eyes are full of successful smiles!

Jiang Zhong's almond eyes widened: "You—"

"Don't be angry, don't be angry," Xi Qin hurriedly comforted him, "It's because you haven't looked at me, and you haven't taken the initiative to talk to me."

The awkward atmosphere just now was gone.

Jiang Zhong hummed softly.

Why didn't I see that Xi Qin was so scheming before

After breakfast, Jiang Zhong and Xi Qin walked aimlessly side by side on the street.

"Are there any plans for later?" Jiang Zhong asked.

"No." Xi Qin said truthfully, "I just woke up in the morning and suddenly wanted to see you, so I came here without making any arrangements."

Jiang Zhong: "... oh."

Why didn't I see Xi Qin being so flirtatious before

"Jiang Zhong." Xi Qin suddenly slowed down, "Although you don't regret what you said, I still want to formally tell you again."

Jiang Zhong turned his head to look at Xi Qin, the comforting tension struck again.

"I said it in a hurry last night," Xi Qin said. "Actually, what I wanted to say at the beginning was not that. What I want to tell you is that I like you for a long time. If you don't mind, let me do it." Is your boyfriend?"

Jiang Zhong only felt that the hustle and bustle around him was far away from him, and he only heard his firm answer in his ears: "Okay."

"Since you want to say it again, then I will answer you again." Jiang Zhong said seriously, "I said I don't regret it, but I don't regret it. Even if you give me more time to think about it, my answer will still be the same."

What Xi Qin said hastily last night, isn't it Jiang Zhong's long-awaited one

After Jiang Zhong finished speaking, Xi Qin looked at him for a long time, Jiang Zhong almost blushed.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Zhong couldn't help but look away first.

Xi Qin's Adam's apple rolled, and he leaned close to Jiang Zhong's ear, and said in a hoarse voice, "If I say I want to kiss you right now, will you think I'm a hooligan?"
