Chen Xiao's coat was a little big, but very thick. Qi Yubai hesitated for a moment, but still put it on. The coat blocked the cold wind outside, and his body temperature finally rose.
Qi Yubai felt a little awkward wearing someone else's coat for the first time. He pressed down the brim of his hat and put his hands in his pockets, looking like a college student who couldn't sleep and was wandering the streets late at night: "The apartment is not far from here, let's go back directly."
Chen Xiao didn't see it. He jumped down the stairs and walked back slowly with Qi Yubai, chatting: "Are you still practicing dancing tomorrow?"
Artists’ schedules are always packed, and those like Qi Yubai who are at the rising stage of their careers are even busier.
Qi Yubai said: "I have to go to the recording studio tomorrow. I have an appointment with the sound teacher to check the effects of the single song. I will practice dancing for four hours in the evening."
Chen Xiao calculated the time and said in surprise: "Then you can't rest until two in the morning."
He didn't expect Qi Yubai to work so hard when he was young.
Qi Yubai now has a new habit, which is to discredit Jiang Long in front of Chen Xiao: "What else, should I sleep like Jiang Long?"
Chen Xiao thought that Jiang Longcai hadn't slept yet, and he usually played games all night when he got home. He stared at Qi Yubai with interest and asked, "Your family is so rich, why do you work so hard? It would be great if you could just go back and inherit the family business comfortably."
Qi Yubai sneered in an unclear tone: "Who told you that you can inherit the family business?"
Chen Xiao didn't understand: "What do you mean? Do you have other brothers in your family?"
Qi Yubai didn't say anything. He suddenly fell silent and said vaguely, "I guess so."
He paused and said, "…I really like singing."
He probably really liked it, and his tone was a little gentler when he said this.
Chen Xiao couldn't help but think of Qi Yubai's future ending. The street was empty, so he simply turned around and faced Qi Yubai, stepping backwards slowly, and asked tentatively: "What if... I mean, if one day you can't sing anymore, what will you do?"
Qi Yubai felt that this question was inexplicable, Wu Shi frowned and asked, "Why can't I sing?"
Chen Xiao couldn't just say that your voice would become hoarse in the future: "What if, what if."
Qi Yubai felt that this was impossible to happen. How could he not be able to sing? "No ifs."
Chen Xiao was just trying to get competitive: "Ru, what about Ru?"
Qi Yubai: "Unless he's dead."
Only the dead can't speak.
After this sentence came out, Chen Xiao suddenly didn't know what to say. He was slow to realize that the young and energetic Qi Yubai had no such option in his mind. He was in his youth, had a bright future, was talented, and was willing to work hard. Many people could already foresee Qi Yubai's future achievements.
How could Qi Yubai...
How is it possible that I can't sing
Chen Xiao now thought it was incredible. He had always regarded Qi Yubai as the biggest rival in his life, but before he could have a fair fight with him, he disappeared like a shooting star.
I suddenly felt a little sad, and I couldn't explain why.
Chen Xiao was distracted by the young Qi Yubai in front of him and said, "Oh, just think of it as a fart."
It wasn't that big. Chen Xiao thought that he had already given birth, and it would be easy to help Qi Yubai find the bastard who poisoned him.
Qi Yubai glared at Chen Xiao: "Vulgar."
He discovered that the person in front of him sometimes liked to swear just like Jiang Long.
Chen Xiao: "Great vulgarity is great elegance."
Qi Yubai said suddenly: "Look at the road."
Chen Xiao: "Huh? Look at the road? What road are you looking at... Shit!"
Before Chen Xiao finished speaking, he tripped over something. There happened to be a hole in a floor tile on the side of the road. When he finally managed to stand firm with his own balance, he accidentally tripped over the hole next to him and fell backwards.
"Chen Xiao!"
Qi Yubai panicked when he saw this, and subconsciously reached out to pull him, but he was also dragged to the ground by Chen Xiao, and both of them fell to the ground.
"Depend on!"
"Well!"
Chen Xiao fell on his back, and it didn't hurt much at first, but Qi Yubai suddenly fell on him, pressing him so hard that he almost vomited blood. He spoke with difficulty: "Qi Yubai, your uncle..."
Qi Yubai was also knocked unconscious. He had originally wanted to help Chen Xiao out of kindness, but he didn't expect his kindness to be taken for granted. He gritted his teeth and said, "Fuck you!"
Chen Xiao was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Qi Yubai subconsciously: "Huh? Did you swear just now?"
Qi Yubai choked and his face turned red: "What's wrong with swearing? I learned it from you."
He frantically tried to get up, but Jie Chenxiao suddenly groaned, frowned, and grabbed his wrist tightly, lowering his voice and asking angrily, "Where are you pressing?!"
It wasn't pressed to the point where it couldn't be touched, but it was almost there.
Qi Yubai realized that something was wrong and withdrew his hand as if he had been electrocuted. He was a little embarrassed at first, but when he saw Chen Xiao's face full of shame and anger, he suddenly felt less embarrassed.
Chen Xiao...
Could it be that Chen Xiao really has never been in a relationship
Qi Yubai looked at Chen Xiao suspiciously, and he felt that it was a little unbelievable. He stood up a little late, and then patted the dust off himself. Chen Xiao stretched out a hand and said unhappily: "What are you doing lying on the ground? Why don't you get up?"
Chen Xiao remembered Qi Yubai's random touching just now, and reluctantly grabbed his hand. Using the force of Fang's pulling, he stood up and cursed in a low voice that only the two of them could hear: "You hooligan!"
Qi Yubai: "You scum!"
Chen Xiao was shocked: "You swore again?"
Qi Yubai said coldly: "You can only scold me if you want to."
He discovered that if you want to be a rogue, you have to use rogue methods, otherwise you will be the one who suffers.
After Qi Yubai finished speaking, he suddenly felt a burning pain in his right hand. He looked down and found that there was a scratch on the back of his hand, which might have been accidentally scratched when he fell just now.
Qi Yubai likes to play musical instruments and has always protected his hands well. When he suddenly saw the wound, he was stunned for a moment.
"How did you hurt your hand?"
Chen Xiao also played musical instruments, so he knew that his hands should not be injured. He held Qi Yubai's hand tightly, and he looked more nervous than a human.
Qi Yubai said, "It probably just rubbed against the ground accidentally."
He pulled his hand back after saying this, not wanting to cause any fuss.
Chen Xiao: "I let you touch blindly, and now you are getting your retribution."
Qi Yubai glared at him and said, "You are the one who is touching blindly. Do you think it's rare for me to touch you?"
Chen Xiao thought that since he had such a good figure, it was possible that Qi Yubai was secretly coveting him. There happened to be a drug store nearby, so Chen Xiao ran in and bought a bottle of iodine and a sterilized cotton swab, and also bought a bottle of mineral water from the store next door.
"Come here and rinse the wound."
Chen Xiao squatted on the side of the road, unscrewed the mineral water bottle, held Qi Yubai's hand and washed away the dust. Qi Yubai wanted to hide, but Chen Xiao held him down and he couldn't move.
Qi Yubai and Chen Xiao squatted on the roadside together. For some reason, they looked like beggars. Especially when there was a breakfast bowl thrown down by someone not far away, they looked even more like beggars.
Qi Yubai pulled up his collar and urged awkwardly: "Can you hurry up?"
Chen Xiao was using a cotton swab to wipe the iodine on him: "Why rush to apply the medicine? If you don't handle it properly, you will be the one who suffers. When you go home later, your parents will be worried when they see it."
Qi Yubai suddenly became quiet after hearing this. He tilted his head to look at Chen Xiao, only to see the man disinfecting his wound seriously. His fingertips moved slightly, causing a burst of fine tingling pain. After a few seconds, he looked away: "... No parents."
Before Chen Xiao could react, he asked subconsciously, "You don't have parents. Are you an orphan?"
Qi Yubai said stiffly: "I am alone from the beginning."
As soon as Qi Yubai finished speaking, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have said something he shouldn't have said. He paused slightly, but he felt that there was nothing to hide. He frowned and looked at the rolling traffic in the distance. After a moment of silence, he said in a nonchalant tone: "She grew up in an orphanage and was adopted when she was seven years old."
Chen Xiao didn't expect Qi Yubai's life story to be like this. His hands trembled and he almost dropped the iodine on the ground. After all, the entertainment industry thinks Qi Yubai is the kind of man who wins at the starting line of life. Fang doesn't look like a lonely man.
Chen Xiao screwed the lid on slowly, thinking that seven years old was old enough to remember things: "So... how are your adoptive parents?"
Qi Yubai hummed: "Not bad... OK, I have food and clothes, and later I gave birth to a boy."
This is all he had to say, and there seems to be no need to elaborate further.
Qi Yubai glanced at his hands after saying this: "Have you finished applying the medicine?"
Chen Xiao replied, "I've finished wiping it."
Qi Yubai's hands were beautiful, but not thin. His fingertips had a thin layer of calluses from years of practicing musical instruments, and it was not difficult to see the strength contained in them. At this time, the medicine was applied, and the brown liquid was inevitably a bit annoying.
"It's so ugly." Qi Yubai curled his lips, somewhat disdaining Chen Xiao's skills, but for some reason he said, "But besides the doctor, you are the only one who can give the 'medicine'."
After he finished speaking, he stood up from the ground, patted the dust off his body, and said, "Okay."
Chen Xiaoqi Yubai was stunned for a moment, and only came back to his senses after hearing what he said. He glanced at the trash can not far away and said, "Wait a minute, go throw away some trash."
Although Chen Xiao was a bad-mouthed person, he still had a sense of public morality. He picked up the mineral water bottles and cotton swabs on the ground and went to the trash can on the side of the road.
Qi Yubai did not move, standing there quietly waiting for Chen Xiao. He adjusted his black cap, and suddenly turned his head to look at the PD behind him, and said without emotion: "Cut the previous part, thank you."
He didn't like to expose his privacy, and the requirements had been noted in the contract when he signed it.
Although the director felt it was a pity, he could only nod in agreement. He was as surprised as Chen Xiao, and he didn't expect Qi Yubai to be alone.
Chen Xiao came back from throwing away the garbage, and didn't notice anything, so he and Qi Yubai continued to go back. At this time, the night was getting darker, and there were almost no people on the street, only the cold wind was blowing.
Qi Yubai instinctively wanted to put his hands in his pockets, but Chen Xiao noticed it first and grabbed his hand subconsciously: "You just applied the medicine, don't move."
Qi Yubai raised his eyes and looked at Chen Xiao: "But it's cold."
He seemed really cold. This night, he suddenly thought of someone from many years ago, someone who instantly swept away all the warmth in his body.
My fingertips feel cold, like a piece of ice.
Chen Xiao didn't know what he was thinking, but he suddenly held Qi Yubai's hand. His palm was dry and warm, and he carefully avoided the injured part, clasped Qi Yubai's cold fingertips, and asked with a stammer: "It won't be cold now, right?"
Chen Xiao took the initiative to hold someone's hand for the first time. He couldn't explain how he felt, but he felt a little nervous. But he regretted it right after he did it, thinking that if Qi Yubai pushed him away, wouldn't that be too embarrassing
However, Qi Yubai said nothing. He lowered his head and nodded lightly, allowing Chen Xiao to lead him slowly back.
The PD who was filming quickly pointed the camera at their holding hands, and was extremely excited. Damn, there is finally progress!
Qi Yubai made small talk: "You are a good dancer. Have you practiced before?"
Chen Xiao heard him praise himself, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly, unable to hide his emotion: "I haven't practiced for a long time, so I'm just average. Maybe I'm a natural talent."
Qi Yubai was somewhat speechless, wondering how Chen Xiao could still be so shameless. It would be strange if he didn't scold Pu Xinnan when the show was broadcast. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "If you are so smart, how come your club went bankrupt?"
Chen Xiao: "That's not my ambition."
Qi Yubai moved his fingertips and asked with interest: "If not here, then where?"
Chen Xiao listed them: "Singing, composing music, acting."
Qi Yubai was somewhat surprised that Chen Xiao had such a wide range of interests and hobbies. It sounded as if they were all related to the entertainment industry. "What about dancing? Why not dancing?"
Chen Xiao: "Dancing is just a sideline I developed. I am better at singing and acting."
Qi Yubai snorted, obviously not believing it: "You are quite arrogant, don't blow your own trumpet."
According to Qi Yubai, Chen Xiao's dancing skills have surpassed most people, so it is impossible for him to be good at singing and acting. Chen Xiao is only in his twenties, how could he learn so many things at the same time and practice them to the pinnacle
Seeing that he didn't believe it, Chen Xiao didn't say anything, and shook their hands from time to time. From behind, they looked like two childish elementary school kids.
They chatted slowly and finally arrived at the door of Qi Yubai's apartment. Seeing this, Chen Xiao finally let go of Qi Yubai, thought for a moment, took out the remaining iodine and cotton swabs in his pocket and handed them to him: "It's getting late, you should go back and rest, and remember to apply the 'medicine'."
Qi Yubai did not leave immediately. He stood on the steps, looking a head taller than Chen Xiao. He looked down at the medicine and cotton swab in his hand, and suddenly asked curiously, "Why did you ask that question today?"
Chen Xiao was stunned: "What?"
Qi Yubai stared at him: "Just...if I can't sing in the future."
Chen Xiao paused and said, "I'm just curious. After all, there's a saying, 'Prepare for a rainy day'?"
He looked at Qi Yubai and couldn't help sighing in his heart. Although Qi Yubai's living conditions seemed good, his adoptive parents didn't seem to care about him much. Living under someone else's roof was not a good feeling. Moreover, he later gave birth to a younger brother. Wouldn't Qi Yubai's situation be even more embarrassing
Chen Xiao took a step forward and stepped on a step, so that he was taller than Qi Yubai. He blocked the camera without leaving any trace, looked down at Qi Yubai, and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Have you ever thought about finding your biological parents?"
The cold wind blew, and Chen Xiao blocked it behind him. His hair was messy, but his eyes were clear and bright.
Qi Yubai paused after hearing this: "They don't need it."
The sound was blown away by the wind, but Chen Xiao heard it clearly.
Qi Yubai said: "From the time they threw me into the orphanage, there was no need for each other between us."
"Chen Xiao, not everyone needs the company of their family to survive. One can live alone."
Qi Yubai's cold and indifferent character that kept people at a distance was evident, but as soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly fell into a warm embrace, and then someone patted him hard on the back twice: "But you must be strong."
Chen Xiaoqi was a soft-hearted person. When he thought of Qi Yubai's fate in his previous life, when he was poisoned and mute and no one cared about him, he suddenly felt sad and hugged Qi Yubai on impulse: "No matter what, you must be strong!"
#qaq brother, strength is victory#
"… "
Qi Yubai was silent for a moment, not understanding why Chen Xiao was so excited all of a sudden. He slowly cast his gaze on Chen Xiao's face, and then realized something, could it be...
Feel sorry for yourself
This idea was a bit absurd, Qi Yubai himself felt it was outrageous, but the expression in Chen Xiao's eyes could not be faked. Qi Yubai pursed his lips, turned his head away in panic and said, "You tell me."
Chen Xiao thought about it and realized that Qi Yubai was indeed very strong. He was still alive when he died in his previous life. Chen Xiao slowly calmed down and suddenly realized that his current posture was not right. He was about to let go of his hand, but just as he took a step back, he was pulled back by a force the next second.
Qi Yubai thought to himself, what does Chen Xiao think of him? He can hug him whenever he wants, and he can run away whenever he wants. He just lets go and runs away after taking advantage of him? He glanced at Chen Xiao with an ambiguous look, and said in a dangerous tone, "Who allowed you to hug me just now?"
Chen Xiao's mind went blank, thinking, what's wrong with a grown man hugging him? Does he have to pay for it
Chen Xiao: "... I just want to give you a hug of encouragement."
Qi Yubai saw Chen Xiao's nervous face. After a moment, he suddenly said softly, "What are you afraid of? I won't eat you."
He was silent for a moment after he finished speaking, as if he was hesitating about something, but it seemed that he was not hesitating at all. The next second, he hugged Chen Xiao silently.
Chen Xiao's pupils trembled and he was frightened into a fool.
Qi Yubai originally participated in this dating show just for exposure, and had no intention of falling in love. After all, he was still young and his career had just started, so he didn't have the energy to think about personal problems. He was indifferent to love and had no expectations.
but…
Qi Yubai lowered his eyes and leaned against Chen Xiao's broad shoulders. He suddenly felt that falling in love was not such a bad thing and it might be worth a try.
Or should we strike first? When filming a previous episode, Jin Annie and Yu Ying had thought about Chen Xiao, and now there is another ghost named Jiang Long.
Qi Yubai thought for a while, and finally looked up at Chen Xiao: "Have you never been in love before?"
Chen Xiao shook his head blankly. The touch in his arms was slightly cool and soft, making him feel dazed for a moment.
Qi Yubai curled his lips slightly: "What a coincidence, I haven't talked about it before."
Chen Xiao thought, is there anything worth bragging about
Qi Yubai paused and said, "Remember to come to the recording studio tomorrow to find me."
He couldn't help but gently poked Chen Xiao's abdominal muscles from below, and then found that it felt pretty good.
Chen Xiao blushed and held his hand: "Hey, what are you doing?"
Qi Yubai raised his eyebrows lightly, and suddenly found Chen Xiaoqi quite cute: "You were the one who acted like a hooligan first, so I did that."
After he finished speaking, he finally let go of Chen Xiao and walked back up a few steps: "It's almost two o'clock, you should go back early."
Chen Xiao was shocked when he heard this. It was only nine o'clock when they left the dance studio, so how come it was two o'clock now? ! Xia Shi glanced at the direction they came from: "How far is the studio from your home?"
Qi Yubai crossed his arms and shrugged nonchalantly: "Oh, it's okay, just a few kilometers."
How many kilometers!
When Chen Xiao came, he was talking to Qi Yubai and didn't realize that he had come so far. He found that the buses had stopped running and the cars didn't come. Would he have to go back and drive again? !
Chen Xiao was so angry: "Qi Yubai, you did it on purpose!"
Qi Yubai thought, so what if it was intentional. He stood on top, looking at Chen Xiao with interest, and finally took out the car keys from his pocket and threw them to him: "Remember to return the black car behind you tomorrow."
Qi Yubai had been fighting for so long, and finally won back a game.
Chen Xiao instinctively raised his hand to catch it, and grasped the cold car key in his palm, as if he had pressed some kind of switch, causing the system to beep:
Ding! Please note that the villain's blackening degree has been reduced to 25. Please continue to work hard~
Chen Xiao was stunned when he heard that, and he looked up at Qi Yubai, but he had already gone in and even his back could not be seen.
Finally, Chen Xiao drove Qi Yubai's car back home.
When he went to bed at night, he tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, and his mind kept thinking about Qi Yubai's sudden hug. Finally, he sat up from the bed and turned on his phone, only to see a bunch of messages pop up.
There are those messy friends of the original owner, and there are also Qi Yubai's fan club.
Chen Xiao joined the group out of boredom and forgot to block group messages. When he opened it, 99+ popped up. He originally wanted to quit the group, after all, the fan group had a period of sign-in tasks, which was too troublesome.
But after a moment's hesitation, Chen Xiao still clicked on the group message. The content was nothing more than voting for the rankings, or some retouched photos of Qi Yubai.
Good-looking people look good in any photo, and they look even better after retouching. Unlike Jiang Long's weird aesthetics, Qi Yubai has a lot of amazing photos that have gone viral.
Chen Xiao flipped through a few photos out of boredom, and suddenly saw a photo of a cool and elegant beauty in the group album. He stared at it for a long time with a red face, and inexplicably felt that this beauty was more beautiful than all the stars he had seen in the entertainment industry. However, after a few seconds, he suddenly realized something was wrong.
Damn, this is obviously a reposted picture that was photoshopped by fans for Qi Yubai!
It’s over, it’s over!
Chen Xiao threw the phone away in panic. He realized that he had been a little bit disharmonious recently. Why did he always have wild thoughts about Qi Yubai
The system sat quietly on the bedside table, telling him calmly: Being gay is not a big deal.
Chen Xiao glared at it and said, "You are the one who is bent. What makes you say you are bent?"
The system said: This is a statistical problem, because the hosts bound before were not very straight.
Chen Xiao: "Now you are here, a little red among the green, a little straight among the thousands of roots."
The system was thinking a lot: Can you go to bed quickly
The host's unstable mental strength will also affect the system's ability to fall asleep.
Chen Xiao had no choice but to cover himself with the quilt and go to sleep. This time he finally fell asleep, but he had an unspeakable and indescribable dream.
A flexible waist and cool and attractive eyes.
The person whose face could not be seen clearly lay in his arms with a red face, and the dark hair gently brushed across his chin, causing a slight itch. His skin was delicate and cold, with a familiar scent.
"Chen Xiao..."
The man called him, his voice was low and hoarse, as seductive as a siren.
Chen Xiao's heart was beating fast. He was like a young man who had just fallen in love. Fang had lured him into a trap. As their lips and tongues intertwined, he saw Fang's face clearly.
It's Qi Yubai...
