Chapter 57: Laugh, laugh, isn’t it just that your legs are short?
He must be closer to home than the airport, so when he got home, Zhou Yan had not returned yet.
Lin Xu washed his face to make himself look better.
It has been almost five days since he separated from Zhou Yan, and he didn't want Zhou Yan's mood to be affected by his trivial matter.
I sat on the sofa, dazed for about twenty minutes, when I heard a noise at the door.
Zhou Yan is back.
Lin Xu jumped up from the sofa as if he had suddenly been charged, and strode to the door.
Then he froze.
The one who came in before Zhou Yan was a bouquet of flowers in his hand.
The bouquet is not too big, just the right size to hold in your hand.
It is a mix of sunflowers and champagne roses, the colors are bright but not gaudy.
Seeing Lin Xu's stunned expression, Zhou Yan couldn't help but laugh: "What's wrong? You haven't seen me for a few days, don't you recognize me?"
"No..." Lin Xu quickly shifted his gaze from the bouquet to Zhou Yan's face.
After not seeing each other for a few days, Zhou Yan has lost a little weight.
Probably because I didn't eat or sleep well on business trips, and stayed up late every day to accompany clients, my jawline became more obvious.
Zhou Yan coughed lightly: "Why are you so stupid? Bring the flowers in, they are for you."
"A gift for me?" Lin Xu was surprised.
"Ah, who else is in this family?" Zhou Yan found his reaction very funny.
"I..." Lin Xu held the flowers in his arms, looked down at them, his heart in turmoil.
The mood that I had finally adjusted was about to collapse in an instant.
Zhou Yan hasn't given flowers to anyone for a long time.
Before they broke up, his assistant would help him order flowers online for his ex-girlfriend as a routine on various holidays.
He personally selected this bouquet of flowers today.
The idea of sending flowers was a sudden one. He passed by the flower shop at the entrance of the community downstairs and saw the sunflowers in the window, so he asked the driver to pull over.
The clerk helped match champagne roses of the same color, and the decorations of the bouquet were all solid colors, which highlighted the brightness of the sunflowers without being monotonous.
Zhou Yan was in a very happy mood when he went upstairs with the bouquet of flowers.
Lin Xu likes flowers and plants, so he must be very happy to see it.
When Zhou Yan thought of the simple smile on Lin Xu's face, he couldn't help but smile too.
As a result, he seemed to be too sudden and scared the child silly.
"What are you thinking about? It's just something you suddenly saw downstairs. Find a vase and put some flowers in it. It will add some atmosphere to the room."
"What...atmosphere...?" Lin Xu asked stupidly.
The unpleasantness I just experienced is no longer important.
Zhou Yan was really at his wit's end. He rubbed his head and said with a smile, "It's a home atmosphere."
"Oh..." Lin Xu lowered his head, bit his lip, and smiled.
Zhou Yan dragged the suitcase back to the room to sort it out. Lin Xu found a vase and put it on the coffee table, then smiled foolishly.
"This, I saw it over there and just bought some. There are some food and toys. I'm giving it to you."
When Zhou Yan came out of the room again, he was holding a few bags and placed them in front of Lin Xu.
"Huh?" Why are there gifts besides flowers?
After a quick look, I saw one bag of local snacks, one bag of folk handicrafts, and one hat.
No matter how stupid Lin Xu was, he felt something was wrong.
When I come back from a business trip, I am given flowers and gifts. Isn't this the treatment I should receive as a good brother?
Lin Xu was about to think about it when Zhou Yan added, "If it's not enough, I have some for my colleagues. You can take your pick first."
"Oh...that's enough, thank you brother." Lin Xu accepted it with peace of mind and thanked him.
But he was still a little disappointed in his heart. It turned out that he was really overthinking it.
Lin Xu was so angry that she wanted to punch herself. How could Zhou Yan have such an idea? He was such a good person. He would bring gifts to herself and his colleagues.
However, my colleague definitely didn’t spend any money on it, as this one is exclusively for him.
Lin Xu comforted himself in this simple way.
Of course, Zhou Yan didn't buy it for his colleague and brought it to him. It was probably the opposite. In order to buy it for him, he brought some extra to cover for his colleague.
The only things I gave to my colleagues were some specialty snacks, but no handicrafts.
He personally picked these little things and ornaments, thinking that Lin Xu would like them.
And that hat is the color of dragon fruit. Lin Xu has fair skin, so it should look good on him.
"What do you want to eat tonight?" Zhou Yan asked as he sat next to Lin Xu.
"You just came back, so don't cook. You'll be tired. If you don't like takeout, I'll go out and buy some vegetables and come back to cook hot pot for you?" Lin Xu suggested.
"Cook hot pot, will you cook it for me?" Zhou Yan was a little uncertain.
"Why are you so suspicious of me? I still know how to cook hot pot, okay? You go and have a rest. I'll go to the supermarket to buy ingredients."
Lin Xu got up to change clothes.
Zhou Yan grabbed his wrist, pulled him back to the sofa, and threw him into his arms.
A brief touch in a moment is still heart-warming.
Zhou Yan tried it briefly and then let go of Lin Xu and stood up: "I'm going to take a shower, and then we'll go to the supermarket together, wait for me."
"Okay..." Lin Xu nodded with red ears.
The moment he bumped into Zhou Yan's arms just now made his heart beat faster.
Meizizi carried a bunch of bags back to her room, sorted them out, and then changed her clothes.
The two of them went out to the supermarket together.
Lin Xu put on the hat Zhou Yan gave him.
Zhou Yan was very satisfied. This color really suited him.
Moreover, when Lin Xu wore a hat to cover his forehead, his face looked smaller and his eyes looked bigger.
Zhou Yan was so cute that his hands were itching to touch him.
Zhou Yan was driving. After getting in the car, he sat in the seat and couldn't stretch his legs. He couldn't help laughing.
He didn't mean to laugh at Lin Xu, but he inexplicably felt happy about the intimacy of two people driving a car together.
But in Lin Xu's view, it was just naked ridicule.
As Zhou Yan adjusted his chair, Lin Xu snorted, "Laugh, laugh, isn't it just short legs? How many legs are longer than yours? Tsk."
Zhou Yan looked Lin Xu up and down, raised his hand and pinched his cheek: "Your legs are not short, I'm not making fun of you, it's my legs that are long."
Lin Xu's legs are really not short, and his body proportions are that his legs are long and his upper body is slightly shorter.
The waist is also very thin.
Shopping in the supermarket with Zhou Yan has always been something that makes Lin Xu feel happy.
Today is the weekend, and there are more people in the supermarket, couples, some with children.
The two of them mixed in, as if they were a family.
Coming directly from the parking lot is the second floor of the supermarket, where the main products sold are household items and snacks.
Zhou Yan is no longer at the age of liking snacks, but Lin Xu likes to eat them. Zhou Yan also noticed what he likes to eat and bought some of his favorites.
But I didn't buy him too much snacks, as eating too many would delay his meals.
Then there is the home furnishings section.
You need to buy more dishwashing liquid, detergent and laundry detergent at home.
Lin Xu pushed the shopping cart, Zhou Yan stood in front of the shelf and picked things out, then gave them to Lin Xu to smell.
"Hmm? This smell - a little familiar, what smell is it?" Lin Xu tilted his head and looked at the words on the laundry detergent bag through Zhou Yan's hand.
He tilted his head and fell into Zhou Yan's arms.
Zhou Yan lowered his head to look at the little head that was studying the ingredient list carefully, a gentle smile in his eyes. He raised his other hand, as if holding Lin Xu in his arms, and pointed to him: "It's written here - sweet orange thyme. Do you like it?"
