Chapter 20Chapter 20 What to do?
When they returned to the courtyard, they found two elderly women sitting at the door. They looked like locals. They wore Tibetan robes and small, slightly upturned Tibetan hats, with a few strands of silver hair falling from the brim. Their faces were wrinkled, but they were filled with kind and prosperous smiles.
When they approached, the two men seemed to have just seen them. An old woman stood up and greeted them in her broken Mandarin, "Do you need a place to stay?"
"No, mother-in-law, we live here and have friends inside." Shen Xiyu raised his voice for fear that she couldn't hear him.
The old woman clapped her hands and said, "It seems like Xie Waer drove to pick up those kids yesterday."
Chen Xiyu guessed that the Xie Waer she was talking about was probably the innkeeper. "Yes, that's right."
"Let's go inside quickly, a group of people are getting ready to show a movie." As she said that, she held onto the pillar and slowly sat down on the wooden bench.
Shen Xiyu and Chen Ningzhou were about to go in, and she turned around and asked, "Grandma, it's so windy outside, do you want to go in and take a look together?"
The old woman who had just been talking to them waved her hand and said, "Look, you young people, we old ladies are not going to get involved anymore."
"No, let's look at the stars. They haven't been this bright for a long time." Another old man who had been knitting something in his hands without saying anything waved his hand.
Shen Xiyu looked up and saw the sky full of stars, like a frozen rain.
Chen Ningzhou nodded and said goodbye to the two old men.
"Chen Ningzhou, I want to look at the stars like this even when I'm old." Shen Xiyu said suddenly.
"With your physical condition, you'll be blown down by the wind if you go out in the middle of the night when you're old."
"……roll."

When they walked to the backyard, they saw four people sitting on a bench made of horizontal wood and chatting from afar.
Shen Xiyu saw Liang Qi looking up at the starry sky and smiling, with his hands supported behind him and his long legs stretched out. He didn't notice the two of them.
The stars shine so that everyone can find their own star one day.
Saint-Eri's romantic words now crept into her head uncontrollably.
"I'm back. You've been gone for a long time." Qin Yiyan was the first to see the two people coming over.
Liang Qi raised his head and withdrew his smile. Shen Xiyu could sense that he was not very happy.
They walked up to a few people.
"Is it serious?" Liang Qi asked with concern, but his tone was cold.
"It's okay, it's normal, just take some medicine." Shen Xiyu avoided his gaze, not wanting to look into his bottomless eyes.
Chen Ningzhou was carrying a large bag. "I bought some portable oxygen cylinders, just in case."
Qin Yiyan poked his head into the bag and gave Chen Ningzhou a thumbs-up. "I've always thought you were a reliable kid."
"Neuropathy?"
“…”
"Let's go to the movie theater. He has his own small private movie theater here." Liang Qi stood up and patted the sawdust on his trouser legs.
"Let's go. I've been thinking about it for a long time." Zhang Zhihou said anxiously.
*
It's called a movie projection room, but in fact, Yu Xie has set aside a separate room and installed a large projector.
"Brother Xie, do you usually come here by yourself?" Zhang Zhi thought the decoration inside was pretty good, but the space was not very big.
Liang Qi came in and turned on the lights. "Sometimes it's open to tourists." He picked up the remote control and turned on the projector. "But most of the time he uses it himself."
Dai Meng noticed a picture frame in the corner. On it was a girl wearing a white vest, black tight shorts, and long, straight black hair. She blinked and made a "V" sign to the camera. The happiness in her eyes was very contagious, as if she was looking at someone through the frame.
She walked over to look and asked, "Isn't this the popular female star from before? What was her name?"
"Wu Mengfei." Liang Qi answered while hanging clothes without looking at the picture frame.
"Yes, yes, but she looks so young in this photo." Dai Meng was mesmerized. "She's an actress indeed. With such expressive camera skills, if I were the one taking this photo, I'd think she's in love with me."
Zhang Zhi just wanted to drool over the photo, "What a goddess! She's so beautiful!"
Feeling that Shen Xiyu was looking at her, Liang Qi went over and took off the clothes he had put on her and hung them on the hanger. The temperature indoors was much higher than outdoors, and she would feel hot wearing this coat.
"Do you like her very much?" Shen Xiyu asked and added, "But she is indeed very beautiful."
Liang Qi was stunned for a moment, then realized that Shen Xiyu was talking to him. He smiled brightly, "It's just that Brother Yu Xie likes it, don't think too much about it."
?
"What am I thinking about?" Shen Xiyu subconsciously pointed at himself.
As God knows, she was just a little curious when she saw Liang Qi say her name immediately. After all, he didn't look like the kind of person who would chase stars.
Liang Qi just stared at her and smiled playfully.
Well, that stern-faced man just now is not him anymore.
"How about watching a horror movie?" Qin Yiyan excitedly searched the movie library on his mobile phone.
When Dai Meng heard this, she jumped up and down to his side, "Ever since I was little, I've known you were smart!"
The two men grinned as they searched through the film library, holding the remote control tightly, leaving no room for others to seize power.
When it comes to times like this, Shen Xiyu and the other three are all loyal fans of horror movies.
But in fact, only Shen Xiyu and Chen Ningzhou are not afraid. Qin Yiyan and Dai Meng are typical people who are addicted to being weak.
"You two are always scared and screaming, but you still want to watch it every time." Zhang Zhi rolled his eyes and sat down next to Dai Meng.
"You're talking as if you weren't scared to death."
"I'm scared, so I won't let you see it!" Zhang Zhi felt even more wronged than Dou E. He tearfully accused them, "When have you ever listened to me?!"
"I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen." Dai Meng covered her ears.
“…”
Shen Xiyu watched them making a fuss, then remembered that Liang Qi was still standing next to him, "Are you scared?"
"I'm scared." He remained calm and didn't even think about it.
Shen Xiyu looked Liang Qi up and down, "You don't look like you'd be scared."
"That's your stereotype. I'm scared." Liang Qi said seriously.
Shen Xiyu put his hands in his pajamas pockets, and the ears of his hat moved as he spoke, "Then we won't watch horror movies."
"no."
?
"Let Qin Yiyan and the other three watch it together someday. You're such a sucker." Shen Xiyu sat on a round cushion on the carpet, leaning against the corner of the sofa.
Liang Qi followed her and sat on the carpet. "Aren't you afraid?"
"I'm not afraid." Shen Xiyu said indifferently.
"You are so amazing, Shen Xiyu." Liang Qi looked at her profile intently in the darkness.
But Shen Xiyu didn't turn his head, he opened a lollipop and put it in his mouth.
"If you're envious, then practice more."
Liang Qi:?
In the end, Qin Yiyan and Dai Meng overcame all objections and, with absolute control over the remote control, chose "Double Vision", an old Taiwanese film.
Shen Xiyu leaned in a corner to watch the big screen. Liang Qi asked her softly, "Are you feeling unwell again?"
"No, I'm sleepy." Shen Xiyu said softly.
"Then go to sleep." Liang Qi pulled the blanket over her and covered her with it.
Shen Xiyu turned her head to look at him, without speaking or moving for a long time. Liang Qi was not in a hurry and looked at her quietly.
He really likes looking into each other's eyes. Chen Xiyu looked into his eyes that couldn't tell the emotion. From the very beginning, he was caught by the repeated eye contact. Eye contact was a kiss without passion for humans.
When Liang Qi looks at someone quietly, he will be very serious, as if at that moment there is only this person in his heart, eyes and the world.
His eyes have different depths, sometimes they are really deep, like now, I can't understand his obscurity and what he didn't say.
“Ah——” Qin Yiyan beside him screamed to the sky, “Ah ...
Shen Xiyu was the first to look away and look at the projection screen. A little baby covered in blood had two pupils in his eyes.
Dai Meng was almost scared to tears, "Why are you so close to my face? I'm not ready yet."
"Look at him." Qin Yiyan was amused when he found Zhang Zhi lying there without opening his eyes.
Chen Ningzhou servilely pried open Zhang Zhi's eyelids.
"Chen Ningzhou, go to hell! Why don't you pretend to be cool now?" Zhang Zhi couldn't break free from Chen Ningzhou's power suppression and had to attack him verbally.
"I never said I was aloof."
“…”
Chen Xiyu had seen enough of the show, raised his eyebrows and asked the person next to him, "Aren't you afraid?"
"I was so busy looking at you just now that I didn't see it."
Liang Qi didn't know that he should change his habit of talking to girls like that. Chen Xiyu didn't want to pay attention to him and simply stopped talking.
Liang Qi looked at the pale girl on the screen lazily, his face calm. He was indeed not afraid of these things, but he was sure that Shen Xiyu would not be afraid either, so he lied.
After being with her for a long time, he became accustomed to telling lies without blinking an eye. Liang Qi went to see Shen Xiyu who was lying on his arms. She had been asleep for a while, but she was not sleeping well and her head kept falling down. He simply put the pillow on his arm so that the girl could lean on it and sleep more peacefully.
The four of them were so engrossed in watching the show that there was no light in the room except for the screen, so they didn't notice what was happening here.
"Look behind you, Zhang Zhi." Dai Meng deliberately scared him.
"Can you get out of here too? Aren't you afraid? You're here to kill me!" Zhang Zhi shouted loudly, but in fact he wrapped the blanket around himself more tightly, and rubbed against Chen Ningzhou without leaving any trace.
"You have a crush on me?"
"Could you please get out too, Chen Ningzhou? This world is really unbearable to stay in."
Liang Qi retracted his gaze. Shen Xiyu didn't know whether she was sleeping unsteadily or had a nightmare, but her brows were unconsciously furrowed. Liang Qi stretched out his fingers to help her smooth it out.
The hand stayed in the air for a long time before it was finally put back into the pocket.
When did he start caring about her so much? It seemed like he cared from the very beginning, because the way she cried attracted him, her arrogance, her vulnerability that she herself didn't realize, and her brilliance. Liang Qi knew he was too anxious, anxious to get closer to her. But he couldn't do anything. Shen Xiyu always ran away, always lied, always pushed him away. He didn't know what to do.
Shen Xiyu.
Open your eyes and tell me what to do?
