Yunli opened the box and found a pair of ice blue crystal earrings. She picked them up and looked at them for a while, then said in surprise, "I think I'm here to celebrate your birthday."
Then, she took out the earrings, pointed them solemnly at Fu Shi Ze's earlobe and said, "It's your birthday, this gift should be given to you." Fu Shi Ze didn't have pierced ears, so it was obviously impossible for him to put them on.
Fu Shi was helpless: "All my gifts are yours."
Yunli followed suit: "My gifts are all yours too."
It was hard to believe what a drunkard said, but Fu Shi still smiled when he heard Yun Li's words. He took the earrings from Yun Li's hand and asked, "Can you sit still?"
Yunli nodded.
He lifted the hair beside her ear, and her earlobe felt red and hot, while Fu Shi pinched her earlobe.
It was his first time putting earrings on a girl, and he was not experienced. He always felt that the delicate skin of the earlobe was extremely fragile.
Fu Shizhe's movements were cautious. He stared at her intently for a long time, and put her on with trepidation for a while. Finally, the earrings were hung on her ears and did not move.
Yunli was quiet, and even after putting it on, she still followed his instructions and did not move.
"I only ordered a cake for you." Yunli seemed to wake up, "I didn't give you a gift."
She repeated in disbelief: "I didn't give you a gift."
"Didn't you send yourself back?" Fu Shi responded to her question. Yun Li blinked and asked, "Do you like it?"
"Um."
There was a knock on the door, probably someone was delivering the cake. Fu Shi was about to go get it, but Yun Li grabbed his collar tightly and continued to ask, "--Do you like me?"
He couldn't move this action.
Fu Shi laughed and tried to pry her fingers apart one by one. When he pried one apart, she would resist and put the other one back. After trying in vain, he gave up and leaned against the sofa.
"Yeah, I like you."
Yunli murmured, "I like you, too."
Fu Shize: "I know."
Yun Li didn't let go of Fu Shi Ze until she fell asleep. When she held her in bed, Fu Shi Ze noticed that his collar had been torn open by her.
She left several red marks on the collarbone.
This room used to be occupied by my grandparents, and no one has lived there for many years.
The house, which should have been empty, now has her presence.
Fu Shi left a small light on and removed her makeup and jewelry.
Yunli turned over and opened the quilt, while Fu Shi tucked it in for her. There was no sign of drinking on her face, and her curled eyelashes obediently covered her upper eyelids. He touched her eye sockets and asked, "Can I have a birthday present?"
Yunli frowned and turned his face towards him.
The wet lips seemed to be calling him, and Fu Shi leaned closer and said to himself, "I'll take it as your consent."
…
It was the next morning when I saw the cake in person.
Yunli woke up in a daze, with a dull pain in her head. She recalled what happened last night, and the end of her memory was falling asleep in his arms.
It's impossible that I would come back specially to celebrate his birthday and end up not even blowing out a single birthday candle.
Thinking of Fu Shi Ze sitting alone on the sofa, Yun Li lit two candles and glanced at the person sleeping soundly next to him. She felt guilty. She shouldn't have drunk those two glasses of wine because she was in a bad mood.
I opened the refrigerator and found that the cake was not whole, so I cut it into two pieces.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
It should be his birthday, because Fu Shi would never deliberately disguise the cake like this.
"Did you sleep well?" Fu Shi walked to her side and took out milk and eggs from the refrigerator.
He had been awake for a long time, and several buttons of his pajamas were loose, and a red mark on his collarbone could be seen.
Yunli couldn't believe his eyes.
"Yeah, it's fine." She answered his question politely and asked him hesitantly, "Did I do that to your collarbone?"
Fu Shize: "Don't remember?"
“…”
"Let me ask you a question," Yunli said with difficulty, "How did you do it?"
Fu Shi placed the hot milk in front of her and said casually, "Maybe he bit her."
“…”
Yunli continued to search her memory to see how far the two of them had progressed. She vaguely remembered that after she fell asleep, the tip of her tongue struggled with something. She stretched out her hands to resist, but then her arms sank into the soft sheets and she couldn't move at all.
She was still confused, but Fu Shi said indifferently, "It's okay."
This matter was beyond Yunli's comprehension. Fearing that she would get into trouble, she blurted out, "That's good."
Fu Shi laughed.
Yunli thought the matter was over, but when Fu Shize was frying eggs, he suddenly turned around and looked at her: "It hurts a little."
“…”
Yunli was finally let go after the kiss made her lips hurt. While eating breakfast, she glanced at her phone and saw the message Yunye sent last night: [Wish my brother-in-law a happy birthday for me. ]
Yunli: [Received.]
Yunye: [Twelve hours have passed, Yunli, what did you do last night? ]
Yunli: [Date^^]
Yunye: [Hehe]
Yunye: [Family reminder: Dad said he would go to Nanwu to send you a quilt, the time is unknown. ]
Yunli: [Damn]
After drinking some milk to calm his nerves, Yunli was so frightened by the news that his hair stood on end. The winter was almost over, so it was time to come to Nanwu to examine the future son-in-law.
After breakfast, the two drove to a nearby supermarket to do some shopping.
Yunli looked at the common daily necessities in the shopping cart, such as toothbrushes, cups, slippers, etc., all of which were bought in pairs. Logically, she should only buy her own share, and wondered, "Didn't your family have any of these before?"
Fu Shi counted them all: "Couple slippers, couple cups, couple pajamas..."
Seeing her blank expression, he lowered his eyes and asked, "Is there a problem?"
He continued pushing the cart forward. Yunli smiled a little late, followed him, and held his arm tightly.
"Let's buy some fast food." Yunli walked to the frozen section, "We can buy more dumplings, they cook faster."
Fu Shi rarely eats frozen food, and asked in confusion: "Don't you usually make it yourself?"
"You're the one who cooks now." Yun Li said honestly, "I want to reduce your burden."
As soon as the two of them started living together, it seemed like this matter was a done deal.
Sounding a bit cheeky, Yunli added: "If you are tired of cooking, I can make you some frozen dumplings."
“…”
Fu Shi said calmly: "'Xianyun Didajiang's latest news: Video "Make porridge for your boyfriend-how to make crab and shrimp casserole porridge"'"
"Huaishan pork ribs porridge, beef and egg porridge, scallop and shrimp porridge, black bean and brown rice porridge..." Fu Shi recited a few names from the series one after another based on his memory, and asked her with his head tilted: "I seem to be your boyfriend?"
Yunli curled the corners of his lips: "It's you..."
Fu Shi smiled expressionlessly: "I don't remember eating it."
“…”
Yunli walked to the grain and oil area and threw a few bags of brown rice and oats into the shopping cart, then walked to the dry goods area and threw a few bags of dried seafood.
After shopping in the supermarket, Fu Shi changed his clothes and went to work.
South China University of Technology had not yet started school, so Yunli talked to Fang Yuning and returned to the company early.
Yunli's internship at EAW has been going on for three months, and he has been doing odd jobs most of the time.
The intern's job is not fixed. She has helped out in many departments and has gained a rough understanding of the company's business.
She planned to resign in April. Before that, Yunli took the initiative to apply with Fang Yuning to be responsible for the spring recruitment.
This was a job that Yunli would never have taken the initiative to apply for, nor would she have been able to do well in the past. Perhaps because he was eager to change his personality recently, Yunli wanted to try it for the first time.
Apart from going to and from get off work together, Yunli and Fu Shizhe's daily life is ordinary.
Occasionally she would think of Yun Yongchang’s coming to Nanwu.
Having not received any definite news, Yunli hypnotized himself and pretended nothing had happened.
"Teacher Xianyun." He Jiameng took a year-end vacation and came to greet Yunli after returning to the company. "My colleagues said that you have changed a lot recently?"
"Ah?" Yun Li looked up from the documents. "What changed?"
"I like talking and laughing more." He Jiameng said with a smile, "I didn't expect that after falling in love with that cold person, Teacher Xianyun would laugh more. Was she infected?"
Yunli smiled and said, "Maybe I was infected."
The two of them didn't chat for long before it was time to get off work. Yunli packed up his things and waited for Fu Shi Ze at the door.
Today is Valentine's Day. Yunli and Fu Shi have agreed to shoot a drone video together. The theme is the development history of classic drones. Fu Shi will draft and dub the copy for her.
Yunli took out his collection of drones and used the empty space in front of his bookshelf to record the appearance.
Out of the corner of her eye she caught a glimpse of a black leather photo album in the cabinet, and she took it out and flipped through it.
This is a photo of Fu Shizhe in the past.
Since the infancy, there is a boy with him in many photos, who should be the childhood friend mentioned earlier.
The two of them looked similar when they smiled, with obvious folds on their double eyelids. In one photo, the childhood friend was carrying their schoolbags and walking to the gate of Jiangnan Garden with Fu Shi.
Fu Shi looked no more than four or five years old.
Yunli squatted there flipping through the pages, and Fu Shi walked in and asked her, "Drone..."
His voice stopped abruptly.
"I just accidentally flipped through this photo album and saw a lot of photos of you when you were a child." Yun Li stood up and wanted to hand him the photo album.
Fu Shi took a look, closed the album, and asked her, "Are you shooting a video now?"
He put the photo album on the bedside.
Yun Li nodded nervously, and it took him a while to react, "Oh, okay."
Yunli followed him outside, set up the camera and recorded some outdoor drone scenes. While operating the camera, Yunli looked up at him silently.
He had a calm expression, and the blue sky was reflected in his pupils.
The man in the black coat overlapped with the boy in the Unique uniform.
And clearly separated.
Before they were together, Fu Shi was like a rose in the wilderness, alone and separate from others. She was the same, watching him from afar.
The camera captured several frames of footage; his movements were very small, with only the drone flying through the air.
Yunli recalled the night they camped, the reflective lake, and his lonely back. She was so close that she could tell his body temperature, but there was still an inevitable sense of estrangement.
"Lili."
Yunli came back to her senses and saw Fu Shi looking at her. The drone was back in his hands.
"We've finished taking the photos, let's go eat." Yun Li said uncomfortably, and Fu Shi nodded and packed up the camera for her.
It was mid-February, and the temperature was still three degrees below zero. Fu Shi put a scarf on Yunli and took her hand and put it in his pocket.
His palms were a little cold, but soon they warmed up. When he got outside, the cold wind bit his bones, and Yun Li's skin was numb from the cold, except for the warmth from his palms.
After being depressed for the whole day, she finally felt better.
Fu Shi had booked a western restaurant in advance, located in a shopping mall near Jiangnan Garden.
