Chapter 111:
To be honest, Jiang Xiao has not been so relaxed for a long time.
It's not a day or two that the company is busy. He hasn't had much rest in the past two years. He still has to take the classes he should take. Thinking about it carefully, he doesn't have much personal time.
Xia Wanwan has also made a lot of money herself. In recent years, housing prices have risen rapidly. She also wants to change to a bigger house as soon as possible to live in a more comfortable place. After all, as a mother, she has always wanted to give Jiang Xiao a better life by her own abilities.
After the new year, she went to choose. She did it all. Jiang Xiao was too busy to look at it because of the investment in Zhongsen, so she looked at the floor plan on her mobile phone. Xia Wanwan didn't bother to ask him, so she used it. After a few days, she was almost settled.
When Jiang Xiao said this, he couldn't help but sigh.
He and Fu Ruoyan had almost finished eating, so they talked about it on the sofa, some or not, about the trivial things in work and life.
In the beginning, Fu Ruoyan spoke first, starting from the fruit pie he learned, but after listening to it, Jiang Xiao began to babble.
"It's too trivial, isn't it," Jiang Xiao said, feeling a little embarrassed, "I haven't had anything interesting recently, that's all."
"No, it sounds pretty good to me." Fu Ruoyan said, reaching out and smoothing his hair again.
He also likes to hear Jiang Xiao talk about these trivial things. Changed houses, and when he faced Lin Taosheng, he was actually very nervous, his palms were sweating again, what happened to the company recently.
He said this very vividly.
The two of them huddled on the sofa, and Fu Ruoyan found him a small blanket to cover it. Jiang Xiao liked to curl up in a corner of the sofa.
"By the way," Fu Ruoyan seemed to remember something, "I'll show you something."
He pulled Jiang Xiao and walked upstairs.
Fu Ruoyan's house was on the top floor, and there was a small attic above the stairs. Jiang Xiao walked up with him holding hands. There were two reclining chairs on the attic.
"It was because of this that I spent a lot of money to rent this house," Fu Ruoyan said, "Sit down."
The two reclining chairs were very comfortable to lie on. Jiang Xiao covered with a small blanket and watched Fu Ruoyan press the remote control and open the skylight above.
The skylight is not small, the glass is transparent, and you can see the sky when you look up.
"It's just that I haven't seen any stars in Lishi in recent years," Fu Ruoyan said. "Before I met you, I liked to sit here for a while at night, very quiet."
Today is a sunny day. If you look closely, you can still see a few stars.
Jiang Xiao hadn't looked up at the sky for a long time. He remembered that he and Lin Heyuan had looked at the sky together. On the big branches of the old house, there were some before. Looking up at the sky would make people feel peaceful.
"I used to have a skylight like this in my house," Jiang Xiao muttered to himself, "I like to stay there when it rains."
Especially torrential rain.
It was a very strange feeling. The skylight was very large, the glass was transparent, and the rain fell on it. It seemed to be close at hand, but not a single drop fell on him.
The house was warm again, and he sat there drinking the hot drink he made, feeling very secure, as if the house was protecting him.
Jiang Xiaohui felt very at ease, he thought that was the meaning of home.
He spoke very quietly, as if he was muttering to himself, but Fu Ruoyan heard it.
He followed with a smile, but then thought about it and felt a little strange.
...Does Jiang Xiao's house also have a skylight?
There is definitely no house in Lishi. Fu Ruoyan has been there many times, maybe it is the house of his old family.
But Fu Ruoyan thought about it carefully, and it was wrong.
He had chatted with Aunt Xia, and Lin Chengyu was very stingy. He didn't tell him about Jiang Xiao's previous experiences in his hometown, but when he was talking to Aunt Xia, she would say something, and Fu Ruoyan remembered it clearly.
She said that Jiang Xiao was good when he was a child. In the past, the children upstairs shook the floor, but he didn't. He would go to sleep when he was full, and play with toys quietly after sleeping. He was the best child to bring.
There are people upstairs in the old house of Jiang Xiao's family, and they live in an old-fashioned community.
But at that time, Jiang Xiao was already a little confused and had no time to answer Fu Ruoyan's question.
He had been under a lot of stress during this time, but now he was even more sleepy when he relaxed. The reclining chair here was very comfortable for Fu Ruoyan. He was wrapped in a small blanket and couldn't hold back his sleepiness.
Fu Ruoyan didn't ask any more questions because Jiang Xiao was already asleep.
He leaned his head on the back of the chair, looked closely, and slept soundly.
The other party fell asleep, so Fu Ruoyan naturally stopped talking, quietly.
But it's not enough to sleep here. The attic is cold, and it's just covered with a blanket. Sooner or later, you'll catch a cold. The reclining chair is also small. When he wakes up tomorrow, he'll be prone to backache.
"Xiao Xiao," Fu Ruoyan coaxed softly, "Go and sleep in your room."
Jiang Xiao's sleep quality has always been very good. Normal noises can't wake him up at all. Of course, Fu Ruoyan's voice is so small that he can't hear it at all.
In the end, when Fu Ruoyan picked him up with the blankets, he didn't have much reaction. It was exactly as Aunt Xia said, obedient, obedient, and not making a fuss at all.
Below the attic is the room. Fu Ruoyan tucked the person into the bed, thinking about changing Jiang Xiao's clothes.
This is rather difficult.
He was afraid of waking Jiang Xiao up.
It was a bit difficult to change his underwear. He took off Jiang Xiao's coat and felt that the quilt was a little thin, so he went out to another room and changed into a thicker one.
When passing the living room, he heard a buzzing sound coming from the sofa. It was Jiang Xiao's cell phone ringing.
I put it aside when I was eating and kept chatting. Jiang Xiao's mobile phone was in the bag and was pressed by the pillow again. He was far away in the attic and never heard it. Now the room was completely quiet, and the buzzing sound stopped. It's obvious.
Fu Ruoyan hugged the two quilts and took a look. The name displayed on the mobile phone was "Lin Chengyu", and after a closer look, this was not the first call made by Lin Chengyu.
He stared at it for a while, then reached out and pressed it down.
The address here is not clear to Lin Chengyu, and it is also strictly guarded, unlike the old community in Lishi, where he can come in casually.
At least this evening, it is impossible for him to disturb.
Fu Ruoyan then put the phone back in place, as if nothing had happened, he carried the quilt to Jiang Xiao's room without looking away, and after covering the quilt, he didn't want to leave.
He sat on the floor in front of the bed, looking down at Jiang Xiao.
Jiang Xiao's head was sunk in the pillow, and his side face was squeezed by the pillow to make a small piece of meat, which looked soft and cute.
Fu Ruoyan looked at it and couldn't help reaching out to touch it. It was as soft as he imagined.
When he touched too much, Jiang Xiao frowned, then moved and turned his face away.
Don't let it touch.
Fu Ruoyan felt a little pity, then he didn't dare to be cheap, he just lay there and looked at people quietly.
But Jiang Xiao fell into a deep sleep. He started to dream when he fell asleep. Fu Ruoyan didn't know what he dreamed, but it should not be a good content.
Jiang Xiao rolled himself into a ball, Fu Ruoyan saw him frowning, he didn't like to talk in his sleep, but after a long time, he spit out a few words in a low voice: "Wu...it hurts."
When Fu Ruoyan heard this, his heart twitched.
What is Jiang Xiao hurting?
He didn't know, he stretched out his hand to hug the person to comfort him, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, Jiang Xiao turned around, grabbed his arm, and gently rubbed his head on his palm.
Jiang Xiao's hair is particularly soft.
I can't walk away now.
Fu Ruoyan didn't know if he was in the middle of his arms or if he liked to hear it, but he didn't intend to leave anyway, so he didn't hold back at this moment, and lightly climbed onto the bed and hugged Jiang Xiao into his arms.
The bed in the guest room is also big enough, there is no problem for two people to lie down. Jiang Xiao will also take the initiative to look for the heat source on the bed. As soon as he approaches, Jiang Xiao shrinks into his arms by himself.
The brows are not wrinkled, the time period that should be a nightmare has passed.
Fu Ruoyan hugged him halfway, both of them felt comfortable at this time.
He didn't dare to do anything, Jiang Xiao didn't nod his head and promised to be with him, just the two of them fell asleep side by side.
But Fu Ruoyan was still puzzled, what was hidden in Jiang Xiao's heart.
Many times his resistance to feelings is too clear, and many of this resistance is concentrated on Lin Chengyu. Lin Chengyu must have done something. This is something Fu Ruoyan has long guessed, but what is it specifically.
He recalled that at that time, he and Jiang Xiao talked about family affairs, and Jiang Xiao's expression at that time.
He said how did you know I didn't.
Fu Ruoyan hugged Jiang Xiao tighter. He thought that the meaning behind those words might be the person's heart disease.
He hoped that Jiang Xiao would take the initiative to tell him one day.
Fu Ruoyan thought about it, and felt sleepy at this time.
In the middle of the night, it suddenly rained outside. He heard raindrops beating on the glass window, beeping, without a trace running into the room.
It was at this time that he realized the kind of peace of mind that Jiang Xiao described, so he closed his eyes and gradually fell asleep.
When Jiang Xiao woke up the next day, she was stunned for a long time.
I...inexplicably...how come I fell asleep at someone's house?
He wore his hair in a mess like a chicken coop, and his memories gradually returned to the cage.
Ah, he used to fall asleep alone in the attic. Maybe it was too comfortable, so he slept very deeply.
And not only that, when Jiang Xiao woke up, he was still lying in someone's arms. Fu Ruoyan woke up at about the same time as him, and said "good morning" to him in bed.
Jiang Xiao blushed with embarrassment.
He bounced out at once, then sat up and shrank back. The first reaction was to apologize to the person: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect..."
"I'm sorry," Fu Ruoyan couldn't help pinching his cheek, "I got up, I called and ordered breakfast, and I'll go to work after eating."
