The boy lowered his head and raised his arms to try to cover his face, his voice muffled: "Don't look...it's ugly..."
“Not ugly.”
Xue Du held the boy's cheek with his dry and warm palm.
When they were together, Xue Du always seemed to have endless patience and tenderness.
"Let me see, okay?"
He looked so intently that his gaze seemed to turn into sparks, igniting sparks wherever he passed.
Shen Yinan raised his face and felt a little hot all over his body.
If he raised his eyes at this moment, he would find that Xue Du's eyes were full of pity.
"Does it hurt?" He touched it lightly with his fingertips.
When Shen Yinan was asked this question, he felt that he was making a fuss, but he also felt a little aggrieved.
He said softly, "It's just... a little scratch."
Shen Yinan paused, he didn’t want to say it, but Xue Du asked again with a slightly cold tone.
He had no choice but to say, "It's my father's...girlfriend...out there."
He couldn't utter the word "mistress".
But Xue Du immediately understood what he meant.
“Do you want to return these injuries?” Xue Du asked Shen Yinan’s opinion very seriously, “I happen to be very free recently.”
The big palm covered it, and the warmth ironed the scar.
Shen Yinan suddenly had a sense of déjà vu. If he nodded, Xue Du would take out his mobile phone and say, "The weather is cool and the king is broken."
But he still refused: "No, I've already moved out."
He didn't want to trouble Xue Du.
Seeing Shen Yinan shaking his head, Xue Du's eyelashes drooped, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, he paused and asked, "Where did you move to?"
"I have a small apartment near my company."
Xue Du hesitated for a few seconds and asked, "Is this the Hexu Apartment Complex?"
"Yes."
After receiving a positive response, Xue Du curled his lips slightly and said, "What a coincidence, I'm living there recently. Which building and unit do you live in?"
Xue Du also lives there?
Do you have any business there recently?
But...why have I never seen Xue Du's car in the community?
Ana Shen was confused, but answered honestly: “702, Building 2.”
Xue Du's smile deepened: "Then we live very close."
Live very close?
Just as Shen Yinan was about to ask, there were several knocks on the door, and the dishes they ordered were delivered.
He put aside his doubts and concentrated on eating.
After lunch, Xue Du wanted to take Shen Yinan to buy a new car, but the latter insisted not to use it, and he wanted to clean the room.
Xue Du chuckled: "That's perfect, I want to take a nap over there too."
The two of them took Shen Yinan's car back to the community.
Shen Yinan originally thought that when Xue Du said “living close” he meant a building or a floor.
But when we got there, we found out that Xue Du actually lived in Building 701.
He and Xue Du...became face-to-face neighbors?!
