The endless photo album was filled with photos of Tang Yu. When Xinuo was frozen and unable to move, he heard Tang Yu's exclamation in his ears.
"Hey, where did you get this photo? I look pretty good in this outfit..."
Yes, it doesn’t matter if you don’t get a response from your wife. Learning to take the initiative to bring up the topic is also a good choice.
But what Tang Yu didn't expect was that when Xino heard this, he stiffly withdrew his hand and his face darkened.
Tang Yu guessed that the last time Xinuo looked so grim was when he heard that he had run away with the bug, and now—
Who can tell him what happened?
After turning off the computer, Tang Yu walked over and grasped the fair wrist exposed from beneath Xinuo's sleeve with his slender fingers. He then asked softly and gently, "What on earth happened?"
Xino lowered his eyes, deliberately using his long eyelashes to hide the emotion in them, as if he didn't want Tang Yu to see the darkness in his eyes. It wasn't until a low, gentle voice reached his ears that Xino moved, wanting to explain something.
But when he opened his mouth, Xino remembered the countless times he had told himself to be honest. So all his excuses collapsed in an instant, and Xino sullenly spoke his true feelings:
"These photos...I saved them from the posts by those dream girls. They went to the dessert shop specifically to secretly take pictures of you."
"However," Xino raised his head slightly and added, "I have reported all those random posts."
A group of idle female insects would only be so bold and presumptuous in their dreams. Aren’t they just relying on Tang Yu’s good temper that they can act so recklessly?
If, if he wasn't at work, these female insects wouldn't have a chance!
"Oh——" Tang Yu responded lazily. In fact, he didn't think it mattered. It was just sending some photos. But if Xino was unhappy——
Tang Yu felt that his chance had come.
"Hehe... It's okay, Xino, you didn't do anything wrong. But since you are so worried about me, then I..." I won't go to work, right?
Tang Yu pondered for a moment and was about to get to the point, but Xinuo suddenly looked at him and, with a forced calmness, assured him, "Don't worry, since you want to work in a dessert shop, I won't let anyone interfere with you."
Including myself.
Tang Yu's open mouth suddenly closed.
Tang Yu, who no longer wanted to be labeled as "stubborn little white flower" or "self-reliant male insect", only hated himself for being so easily captivated by the aroma of fluffy bread. In the end, he actually agreed to the store manager's request to be the "mascot" of the store.
The result is that I finally got really into baking bread, and now I have learned how to make quite a few desserts.
Alas, what was unexpected was that Xino had no objection at all, and even at this point he was still advising him to work properly.
Tang Yu sighed, feeling a mixture of emotions. "I see. Let's wash our hands and go eat. Xiao Ai made something delicious today."
I hope Xino didn't fill his stomach with these little cookies.
Tang Yu stuffed the laptop into Xino's pocket, and touched Xino's waist wrapped in a white uniform. Finally, he went to put all the cookies that were not taken out of the oven on a new plate with satisfaction.
Fortunately, I didn’t take them out together just now, otherwise Xino probably wouldn’t be able to finish this meal.
Looking at Tang Yu's busy back, Xino looked at his wrist thoughtfully. It seemed that the warmth of Tang Yu's palm still remained on it. Unfortunately, the time was too short, and the residual warmth left by Tang Yu quickly dissipated, and in the end nothing was left.
Recalling the tone of Tang Yu's words just now, Xino still sensitively discovered the barely perceptible sense of loss and disappointment hidden in his words.
Was it his actions that made Tang Yu unhappy?
Driven by the pace, Xino's stiff body finally sat opposite Tang Yu. He quietly watched Tang Yu squinting his eyes and drinking the soup in the bowl with enjoyment. At the end, he did not forget to praise Xiao Ai's cooking skills for getting better and better. However, the scene that should have been warm was overshadowed by the faint worry in his heart.
Perhaps because it was so difficult to recover what he had lost, Xino's sapphire-like eyes rippled, and he finally spoke awkwardly and took the initiative to admit his mistake:
"Tang Yu, I'm sorry."
"Huh? Why do you say that?" Tang Yu wiped his mouth in panic. He never expected that his wife would say this after sitting with him for such a long time.
No, why would you say such a thing?
What exactly happened?
Did his teasing of Xino for saving his own photos hurt Xino's self-esteem?
Yes, after all, every bug has privacy.
After deep reflection, Tang Yu solemnly emphasized: "Don't worry, I won't get angry over such a small matter."
Tang Yu's understanding made Xino, who had had dark thoughts, feel ashamed. He almost thought of not letting Tang Yu go to work because of this. Fortunately, his reason prevented him from taking any actual action in the end.
But Tang Yu has already noticed something, hasn't he?
Xino didn't completely relax after hearing Tang Yu's words of comfort. Instead, he stretched out his legs and began to analyze himself deeply:
"Tang Yu, aren't my actions too childish? If you think so, I will change immediately. Also, I don't have any thoughts of not wanting you to work at the dessert shop. Maybe I did before, but now... I will definitely not have such thoughts again."
"As long as you are happy, Tang Yu."
The slow tone revealed great seriousness. Tang Yu silently put down his knife and fork, finally realizing that what Xino said was completely different from what he thought.
There's no thought of not wanting him to go to work...
No! Wait, he thought it was okay for Xino to have this idea. Wouldn't it be natural for him to just live a lazy life?
But once he met those bright blue eyes, Tang Yu's heartbeat could no longer return to its usual calm. His Adam's apple moved slightly, and he slowly said word by word:
"I'm happy now, Xino."
"So stop worrying about me, okay?"
"You don't need to change anything. You're doing the right thing, okay?"
The gentle and firm voice was like a subtle trickle of water that refreshed people's hearts, but for Xino, every word was enough to make his calmness and rationality collapse.
He wondered, when he was little, had he ever imagined that one day he would willingly call out the word "Hero"? Had he ever imagined that one day he would encounter a male insect that would make him fall deeply in love with it?
The answer should be no, because Tang Yu did not appear at that time, so all assumptions are meaningless.
As if he had figured something out, Xino took a deep breath and nodded slightly under Tang Yu's gaze.
"Then, give me a hug?" Tang Yu stood up and opened her arms to him.
Xino didn't say anything, but the sound of the stool moving back said it all.
Under the light and shadow cast by the dazzling crystal chandelier, Tang Yu and Xino's shadows hugged each other tightly.
