Qin Chizhou was woken up by the cold in the middle of the night.

When I opened my eyes, I found myself sleeping on the sofa with a pillow in my arms.

Qin Chizhou gritted his teeth and called out "Ai Xiaomi" but there was no response, and he was stunned.

The house was cold and there was no familiar sweet smell.

Xiaomi hasn't come back yet.

But that's not right. She was the one who picked him up from the designated driver downstairs last night when he was drunk.

When the elevator door opened, she glared at him and threatened him not to make any noise and disturb the neighbors.

After entering the house, she kept muttering to him while going to the kitchen to make sobering soup for him.

He fell asleep without even having time to drink the hangover soup.

In the past, when I woke up, I was already wearing clean pajamas. When I raised my arm and sniffed it, I could still smell the same scent as Xiaomi.

Every time he would tease her with a smile, saying that there was no need to put any clothes on him, as he would have to take them off when he woke up anyway, which was very troublesome.

She pinched me every time.

But as she pinched her, Xiaomi became as soft as a puddle of water, and all that was left in her ears was her repeated voice of "Qin Chizhou".

Every time at that time, Qin Chizhou would feel that his name was particularly nice.

But this time, Xiaomi left him alone on the sofa.

"Rice grain?"

"Millet?"

"Ai Xiaomi?"

Walk from the living room to the bedroom, and then to the study and kitchen.

It only took a few seconds to search a house of 100 square meters.

Qin Chizhou stood at the kitchen door for a long time, and seemed to remember something.

Ai Xiaomi has been away from him for 12 days.

It's already early morning.

The willfulness and anger between his eyebrows were instantly replaced by depression. Qin Chizhou slowly raised his eyes, his eyes were bloodshot.

The whole house is not as big as his bathroom.

But the snow-white window screens, the cushions on the sofa, and the small tent in the corner were all bought by Ai Xiaomi after she took his arm, compared countless online stores, looked at countless pictures, and carefully selected them when they first moved in.

At that time, he was full of disdain. "Apart from being good-looking, what else does this pile of stuff have? The time I spent choosing this pile of junk could have bought this house."

Ai Xiaomi was not angry, and refuted him without even raising her head, "Their biggest advantage is that they look good. When I open the door, I see everything I like. I decorate my home with my things, and I feel good. Being in a good mood is enough!"

After saying that, Ai Xiaomi looked up at him and glared at him: "Qin Gou, do you know what a home is like? A home requires thought, not just how big it is, how expensive the sofa is, or how expensive the murals are. Do you understand?"

"No, you don't understand!"

She asked and answered her own questions without even looking at him, her attention was focused on the beautiful home pictures on her phone screen.

Every time Qin Chizhou comes, the house is a little more beautiful than the previous time.

The originally empty house was soon filled with the things that Ai Xiaomi bought.

At this moment, the little house looks as beautiful as a small castle.

But the rice grains that filled the place with the smell of fireworks are gone.

"Qin Chizhou, in the summer, when the balcony door is open and the breeze blows, we can sit on the floor and dig a big watermelon to eat. Qin Gou, do you know the most authentic way to eat watermelon? I'll take you to experience it when the time comes. It's definitely much more enjoyable than the small bite you take with the fork!"

"Qin Chizhou, I bought a small fireplace and put it in the tent. When winter comes, we can lie in the tent and look at the stars. I pasted luminous stars on the ceiling. When the time comes, when the lights are turned off, how beautiful it will be?"

"Qin Chizhou..."

Ai Xiaomi's crisp or coquettish voice echoed in his ears. In front of the dim kitchen door, Qin Chizhou couldn't help but wipe his eyes.

Ai Xiaomi, I didn't miss you! I didn't cry! He just... had a stone in his eye!
