Chapter 51 Chapter 51

What did Gu Chi just say?

Xi Bai even thought he was hallucinating. He subconsciously rubbed his ears.

The blood-red and swollen earlobes were pinched and rubbed by his knuckles. Gu Chi narrowed his eyes slightly, licked his lips, and couldn't help but mutter in his heart.

"Xi Bai is so cute, I like him so much"

Xi Bai was completely stunned.

If he had to hesitate just now whether the excessive blood flow in his brain caused the hearing hallucination, then the second sentence of "like" with clear pronunciation was an undeniable nail.

Gu Chi also likes him?

The roommate who had always been suspected to be a straight man and silly suddenly revealed one day that he also liked him.

From a secret crush to a two-way love, accidents and surprises came together, causing Xibai to feel a little dumbfounded.

"Xibai?" Gu Chi tilted his head and looked at Xibai, who suddenly seemed to be immobilized, with no hot ears and no red face. "Are you feeling okay?" Xibai

suddenly came back to his senses and looked up at the pair of concerned light brown eyes.

"No, I'm fine."

He struggled out of Gu Chi's arms, stood up, and passed the string of peppers in his hand to him.

"I'm not tall enough." Xibai pointed to the mosquito net frame above his head, "Hang it for a while."

Gu Chi reached out to take it, but did not move, observing Xibai's expression and reaction with some concern. It was not

until Xibai re-examined that he was really fine and forced a smile that Gu Chi reluctantly turned around and reached out to hang the string of chili peppers.

Gu Chi turned around, and Xibai opened his mouth and took a few deep breaths.

His heartbeat accelerated again, and his eyes were fixed on the broad-shouldered and narrow-waisted figure in front of him.

"Like this?" Gu Chi fixed the position of the string of chili peppers and asked Xibai.

Xibai looked up and saw that the mosquito net frame that made him jump dozens of times just now but couldn't touch it, now had the string of bright red chili peppers hanging neatly on the edge.

Xibai didn't know if his face was this color when he blushed just now.

"Well, that's all."

When Gu Chi turned around, Xibai had tried his best to calm himself down.

It's not that he didn't get excited, but he had to control his reaction so as not to lose his composure in front of Gu Chi.

Of course he wanted to confess, of course he wanted to tell Gu Chi directly "I like you too".

But how could he explain that he could read what was in Gu Chi's mind? The other person was a human being, and suddenly he knew that there was someone who could read his mind, and he had no privacy at all in front of this person... Xibai didn't know how Gu Chi would react.

Would he stop liking him because of this?

The possibility of such consequences made Xibai, whose blood was boiling, gradually calm down.

He raised his head and looked at Gu Chi, whose expression was still a little worried. With

a sweet arc at the corner of his lips, Xibai raised his hand and gently grabbed Gu Chi's arm.

His eyes sparkled, and his tone was full of serious boasting: "As expected, being tall is good. You should do this kind of thing."

Gu Chi stared back at him intently, and Xi Bai's words slipped into his ears. The tone of obvious admiration and dependence made him feel a little bit excited as never before.

"If you need anything in the future, just let me do it." Gu Chi said this dryly.

Xi Bai's smile got bigger, "Okay, I'll leave it to you from now on."

A compliment, plus a smile that was so cute that it made people tremble, just so easily, made Gu Chi's heart float for the whole afternoon.

Xi Bai sat in his seat, looking at Gu Chi, whose steps were floating, and quietly curled the corners of his mouth.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, there is no need to expose the fact that you can read people's minds.

Since he already knows clearly that Gu Chi likes him, he no longer needs to be cautious in testing like before, for fear that he will accidentally think too much.

Then there are many ways left to make it happen naturally.

The fried chicken and barbecue ordered for dinner are not healthy, but delicious.

While waiting for the takeaway, Xi Bai put a can of sugar-free cola and a can of lemon tea outside the window, and it is estimated that they will be almost frozen by the time they are delivered. Gu Chi

went downstairs as soon as he received the takeaway call, and Xi Bai brought in two cans of drinks that were so frozen that they were hard to hold. By the way, he covered the table with a layer of disposable tablecloth and prepared paper towels and disposable gloves.

The last step was to open his computer, repeat the action of "take a look, then quickly lower your head", and choose a famous movie.

When Gu Chi came back with several large bags of takeout, he saw his and Xi Bai's armchairs neatly and closely arranged in front of the table.

Xi Bai was sitting on the smaller one with his legs crossed, smiling at him and patting the back of the chair next to him.

"I found a very famous movie." Xi Bai tried hard to maintain the forced smile on his face, "Watch it while eating."

Gu Chi put the takeout on the table and glanced at Xi Bai who was particularly active in opening the takeout bag.

He always felt that there was something wrong with Xi Bai's expression.

Gu Chi looked at the big white pause sign standing on the dark computer screen again, and said nothing.

Movie.

He heard from Xie Bian and Fan Wushe that it was an imported product that appeared in China a hundred years ago.

If I must say, it is somewhat similar to the shadow play of ancient times, with moving figures appearing on the screen.

Perhaps it can be understood as something like "a very long video"? - Gu Chi, who had just been popularized on the Internet about what "bullet screen" is, glanced at the progress bar showing a time of 2 hours and thought so.

By guessing, Gu Chi accurately got the meaning of "movie".

He and Xi Bai opened the takeaway together, and just as they were about to sit down, Xi Bai raised his hand to stop them.

Gu Chi looked at it in confusion.

Xi Bai swallowed and pursed his lips again.

"Turn off the light." Xibai said, turning on the desk lamp and adjusting it to the lowest setting. He smiled and said to Gu Chi, "It's more atmospheric to watch movies in the dark."

Gu Chi said, "Oh," and turned around to turn off the light.

Darkness fell in the dormitory, leaving only a little light and the faint glow of the screen.

Xibai's throat gurgled again.

The armchair next to him was pulled away by someone, and he heard the sound of Gu Chi sitting down.

Calm down... Xibai told himself.

Gu Chi was still by his side.

"This..."

"Ah!"

The scream echoed in the night. Xibai came to his senses and realized that it was Gu Chi who was talking to him. He said hurriedly, "No, it's okay. I'm not afraid!"

He cursed himself in his heart. He had planned to act calm and waited until the scariest part, and then "accidentally hugged Gu Chi's arm."

Who could have thought that he would be scared like this at the beginning.

Tsk... Xibai blamed himself in frustration.

In the darkness, Gu Chi's eyes quietly appeared dark red, and the weak vision of human beings was replaced at this moment.

Xibai's movements and expressions were captured clearly by his pupils.

The nervously waving hands, the slightly swollen cheeks, and a bit of stubbornness, refusing to admit that he was holding on when he was scared.

"So cute"

Xi Bai was stunned. The moment he heard Gu Chi's inner voice, his fear turned into confusion.

Hey, cute again?

What did I just do?
