Although Xie Sen guessed that Maine's actions might be a gesture of gratitude, he couldn't help but blushed, and his heart beat uncontrollably out of rhythm, and he turned and went into the kitchen.
He, man, Maine, is also a man, so the shameful thought of 'does he like me' is absolutely impossible!
Xie Sen patted his face, trying to forget all the messy thoughts in his head. At the same time, he thought to himself, absolutely must not let Maine know that he had such thoughts, it is too shameful.
When he brought the bowl of french fries to the living room, his expression returned to normal, and he put the french fries in front of Maine: "Try it and see if it tastes good."
Maine took a piece, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth: "It's delicious, are these made of potatoes?"
Xie Sen nodded and said with a smile: "There are still two watermelons in the refrigerator, you can eat them at noon." This was a gift he gave in exchange for watermelon vines.
Maine looked at him with gentle eyes: "Okay."
Xie Sen looked at the reminder that his energy was increased by 2, and couldn't help but think, Maine really likes eating watermelon!
He finished breakfast with Maine in a happy mood, and then went to work for the gold medal. It was Saturday, and he was supposed to be off, but he was not sure how long he would stay in the forest, thinking that the longer the rest time, the better, so he applied for overtime.
When he was free from work, he received a call from a colleague for help. A giant beast was injured in its hind leg, but it was not cooperative with the treatment. As long as the maintenance staff tried to get close to it, it would unceremoniously kick over and knock people down.
Without saying a word, Xie Sen went to help, successfully calmed the giant beast, and let his colleagues clean and bandage its wound smoothly.
The beast owner thanked him gratefully, and then left with the contracted beast.
The colleague rubbed his waist and said repeatedly: "Thank you so much. Fortunately, I have your help. Otherwise, even with my strong body, I can't stand being knocked down all the time. I should have known that I would put a carpet on the ground."
Xie Sen smiled and shook his head to indicate that you are welcome. The scene of Maine thanking him in the morning suddenly appeared in his mind. He hesitated for a while, but couldn't help asking: "Do you have any etiquette for thanking you?"
The colleague blinked: "You want me to give you a red envelope?"
Xie Sen quickly waved his hands: "No, no, don't get me wrong."
The colleague laughed: "Haha, I'm just kidding, just kidding you, you have helped me many times, I don't know you yet? But what did you mean by the question just now?"
Xie Sen's face became slightly uncomfortable, and he touched his forehead: "Is there any etiquette for kissing the other person's forehead because of gratitude?"
"I'll go!" The colleague immediately understood what he meant, jumped up on the spot, and said angrily, "There's a fart of etiquette, who took advantage of you? Who in the department didn't know that you had a boyfriend, and they used such a poor excuse to take advantage of you , you tell brother, brother will beat him up for you! Yes, you also need to tell Manager Sun that if you dare to harass your colleagues, let the manager fire him directly!"
Xie Sen couldn't laugh or cry, he stopped his colleague who was about to go to Sun Mao's office: "Don't be impulsive, no one is taking advantage of me," he said nonsense, "I just saw two customers on the way here, one said to the other Thank you, and then kissed the other person's forehead, I'm a little curious."
The colleague smiled and said, "They are definitely not partners or lovers." He patted Xie Sen on the shoulder, "Oh, you already have boyfriends, and you did such a bold thing, why are you still so innocent, you are still young Not enough experience."
The corner of Xie Sen's mouth twitched, can you not mention that 'bold thing'? Nothing happened at all!
But... He became dazed. If it wasn't for the etiquette of thanking him, why would Mei Yin do that
"Hey, what are you thinking about impure things, your face is blushing." The colleague bumped him with the shoulder, laughing teasingly for a year.
Xie Sen came back to his senses: "No, it's nothing, I'm going to work."
Before getting off work in the evening, Xie Sen asked for leave in advance. When he returned to the apartment, Maine was sitting on the sofa. As soon as Xie Sen saw him, he couldn't help but look at his lips.
So, what does that mean? He... likes me? Bah, what are you thinking!
"What's the matter?" Seeing him staring at him without speaking, Main raised his eyebrows.
"It's okay." Xie Sen quickly looked away and walked to the kitchen, "I'll make dinner."
"I've made it, and I'm keeping it warm. It's still early, so I'll eat it later." Maine said.
Xie Sen sat on the sofa: "When will we leave tomorrow morning?"
"Meet here at 6:30, and depart at 7:30. The speed of the aircraft is fast, and it will arrive at the destination around 9:00."
Xie Sen calculated silently in his heart, the speed of the aircraft is about twelve kilometers per minute, which is about the same as that of a modern aircraft.
He was thinking about what to bring when it occurred to him that he didn't have room for a backpack!
The time of staying in the forest is uncertain, and the climate in the forest is changeable. He must at least bring some clothes. It is definitely not as convenient as wearing a small jewelry when carrying a backpack.
"I forgot to buy a space backpack," he said as he opened his wristband. "Fortunately, the delivery is fast now. I'll buy one now."
"No need," Maine held his wrist with his right hand, and flattened the palm of his left hand, "it's for you."
Xie Sen was stunned when he saw the silver ring in his palm: "Why did you give me this?"
"I missed your birthday, so I will make up for your birthday present." After Maine finished speaking, he paused, "I like the gift you gave me today."
Xie Sen looked at him: "A gift from me?"
"I like potato cakes and potato chips." Maine looked serious.
Xie Sen was startled, these were not gifts at all, they were just the breakfast he made to celebrate Main's birthday.
It never occurred to him that Maine would take them as gifts.
Is it because he personally delivered it to him and said birthday wishes at the same time
Seeing that Maine gave him gifts so seriously, he was moved. He didn't explain that those were not gifts, but thought that when Maine's birthday next year, he must seriously give Maine a gift.
He raised a smile: "We didn't know each other on my birthday, so we don't need to make up gifts. If you do the math, wouldn't you have to make up seventeen gifts?"
Maine pondered for a moment, and said seriously: "Come back from the forest, I will supply you."
"Don't," Xie Sen waved his hand, and that shameful thought came to him again, treating him so well, did he really just treat him as a brother? "I'm just kidding, don't make it up, or I will have to make it up for you too."
"You don't need it," Maine put the ring on his left little finger, "I'll just give it to you."
Xie Sen's fingers subconsciously curled up, feeling that Maine was more and more weird, he looked at Maine's expression, and said with a smile: "How about that, we are brothers, how can I take advantage of you?"
Maine's face moved slightly, and he looked at him. When the two eyes met, Xie Sen's heart skipped a beat. Why did Maine's eyes make him flustered
He turned his gaze away and changed the subject: "Have you notified Long Teng and Bai Jiao of tomorrow's arrangements?"
"I've been notified," Maine gave him a deep look, got up and said, "I'm going to get dinner."
During the whole dinner, Xie Sen didn't say much, and intentionally or unintentionally avoided Maine's sight. When Tuantuan came back, he gave it a small piece of watermelon rind, and Tuantuan grabbed the watermelon rind and ate it cheerfully in the corner without pestering anyone. .
Xie Sen felt his head hurt, and he didn't think about some things. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Main seemed to be interested in him.
He had heard people say before that when a person is caught in a kind of thought, even if all the things that come to mind are false, the subconscious mind will think it is true if he thinks too much, like self-hypnosis.
He felt sorry for his brother, and he hypnotized himself to think of Maine as someone who had thoughts for him, which was simply insulting Maine's sincere brotherhood towards him!
"Are you avoiding me?" Xie Sen was washing the dishes with a troubled expression on his face, Maine embraced his shoulders from behind, and looked at him deeply.
Xie Sen's face turned red, his eyes dodged: "I'm sorry, I... really suck!"
Maine was stunned with a deep expression, never expecting him to say: "Why do you hide from me?"
"I, I, I..." Xie Sen gritted his teeth, thinking that it was worse to think about it like this, he might as well make it clear, and then laughed and said that Maine was good-looking and treated him well, so he couldn't help thinking about it.
He turned around, choked his neck and finished quickly in one breath: "I'm sorry I insulted your brotherhood towards me and thought you had something for me haha..."
He was about to laugh and explain to himself, and said that he would not think about it when he said it, but was interrupted by Maine's words.
"No insult," Maine looked down at him with deep and focused eyes, "I have thoughts about you."
"Huh?" Xie Sen was stunned.
Maine raised his chin: "I wanted to take it slowly, but you feel just right, I like you, and I want you to be my partner."
Xie Sen took a step back abruptly and bumped into the sink, his expression instantly tangled.
Maine wrapped his arms around his waist and brought him forward: "Be careful," turning him around in this posture, and the two switched positions, Maine said, "I'll do the washing."
He finished washing the bowls quickly, and then wiped them clean one by one.
Xie Sen stared at his back, screaming wildly in his heart, he must have had an auditory hallucination just now, right? Otherwise, how could anyone react so calmly after confessing
Shouldn't you wait nervously for the other party to respond, or at least ask the other party's thoughts
wait! Xie Sen came to his senses, this 'opponent' was him!
He was confessed by a man, who was still his good brother! He was still thinking that there was something wrong with his good brother's reaction, and it wasn't him who was really wrong
Xie Sen covered his face, for a moment he forgot that his hands were covered with foam while washing the dishes, and his face was instantly covered with foam. He quickly blew twice, blowing away the foam from the corner of his mouth.
Maine turned his head to see his appearance, and chuckled lightly. Xie Sen blushed and washed his hands and face, muttering in his heart, why are you smiling? It's not because of you!
After washing the dishes, the two walked out of the kitchen. Maine looked deeply at Xie Sen and said, "I won't force you, don't hide from me." Then he sat on the sofa and sorted out the measuring instruments.
Xie Sen looked at it for a while, and saw that Maine was doing business calmly, and he slapped his head. You guys are being hypocritical, just let nature take its course!
He glanced at Maine, although he had never thought of being with a boy, but the other party was Maine, and he didn't feel disgusted at all.
He stopped thinking about it and went into the bedroom to train the plants.
Xie Sen got up before six o'clock the next day. He made a big pot of boiled meat with watermelon rind, and it was ready when Bai Jiao and Long Teng arrived.
Both of them were wearing camouflage combat uniforms, and they were wearing black leather military boots, which were the same style as Xie Senmeiyin's clothes, and they were both bought from the outdoor store recommended by Maine.
Xie Sen invited them to have breakfast together, Bai Jiao took a bite and found that the taste was much better than usual: "What did you add?"
"Watermelon rind." Xie Sen said.
Long Teng ate the meat while blowing the heat, and at the same time he did not forget to explain to Bai Jiao: "The skin of the melon is super delicious to eat directly! It is crispy and fragrant!"
Xie Sen smiled. He and Maine only ate one watermelon yesterday, and he put the other one in his backpack. He didn't tell them, and planned to give them a surprise.
After breakfast, the four of them sat around on the sofa, and Maine gave each of them a bracelet: "This is a communicator. There is a high possibility that there is no signal in the deep forest. Ignore the signal within one kilometer, just in case. There's a strong signal ray up there."
He said while pressing the button on the communicator: "This is a red light, which represents a distress signal, and this is a green light, which represents a safety signal." He looked at Long Teng warningly, "Don't press it if you have nothing to do."
Long Teng stared at him: "I won't press randomly!" As he spoke, a beam of penetrating red light suddenly lit up on his bracelet, and he laughed, "Look, this is a red light. Remember." He quickly closed it.
Xie Sen and Bai Jiao looked at him helplessly, and he repeatedly assured that there would be no mistakes.
Several people put on the bracelets, and Bai Jiao distributed a box of ointment to each of them: "I have improved a bit, and the effect of the medicine is better than before, and the medicine is more durable. You can rub it on now."
The four of them made a series of preparations in Maine's apartment. Not long after, the aircraft that Maine reserved arrived.
