Chapter 9 It would be better if you just took it off
Zhou Yan asked himself, if he were to find a job again now, he definitely wouldn't have the energy that Lin Xu had.
By the time he finished cooking, Lin Xu had already sat on the floor, looking at the winning works of this year's major awards on his notebook.
I got a small bright yellow clip from somewhere and pinned it on my forehead, pulling the loose hair on my forehead to the top of my head.
Lin Xu's hairline is very low, and when he clips his hair up, his palm-sized face is completely exposed.
The bright yellow hairpin made him look more energetic.
Maybe it’s because he has a handsome face and fair skin, so this look with a big vest is a bit incongruous.
Zhou Yan couldn't help but stand behind Lin Xu, leaning against the wall with his arms folded, and asked, "Where are those lamb pajamas you wore when you first moved in? They were so cute, why did you suddenly change your style?"
"Huh?" Lin Xu looked up from the video and replied, "Aren't you wearing a vest too?"
After saying that, she felt something was wrong, as if she had deliberately worn the same clothes as him.
He quickly pretended to be generous and explained: "I mean, this is cool. We are both grown men, so we can wear whatever makes us cool."
Zhou Yan didn't know why he wanted to tease Lin Xu the moment he saw him. He raised his chin and said, "We're all grown men, why don't you just take it off? Wouldn't it be cooler?"
"Ah?" Lin Xu was completely confused.
Before he could react, Zhou Yan put down his arm, walked over swayingly, and stretched his big hand towards Lin Xu's armpit.
Lin Xu initially suspected that Zhou Yan was just joking, but when he reached out his hand, he thought he really wanted to take off his clothes.
He quickly curled up and hugged himself in panic: "Brother Zhou, stop it, I can't do it."
Zhou Yan laughed as he saw the tips of Lin Xu's ears turn red.
The hot air from his nose sprayed on Lin Xu's neck: "Why are you acting like a grown-up girl?"
Lin Xu became even more annoyed and even a little anxious.
Zhou Yan's pure masculine scent was too close to him, making his heart feel uneasy.
It was too hard to bear being invaded by hormones with a hint of tobacco flavor.
"Brother Zhou!" Lin Xu's voice was trembling.
Seeing that he was really annoyed, Zhou Yan realized that he had gone too far and put away his smile: "I'm not really going to take off your clothes. I'm not a pervert. I'm just teasing you. Let's go eat first."
After Zhou Yan finished speaking, he put his hand under Lin Xu's armpit and lifted him up from the ground, being careful with his injured leg.
Lin Xu was easily lifted up by Zhou Yan and stood face to face with him. Beads of sweat appeared on the tip of Lin Xu's nose and he didn't dare to look up at Zhou Yan at all.
The word "pervert" that Zhou Yan had just said inadvertently stung Lin Xu a little.
He was not blaming Zhou Yan. Zhou Yan didn't know his situation, so it wasn't an offense to say this to his face.
But he also knew Zhou Yan's attitude clearly.
If he found out about my situation, I would become a 'pervert' in his eyes.
So you must not reveal the truth.
"I was just having fun with you. I won't do it again next time." Zhou Yan thought he was angry.
In fact, when they were in college, there was a roommate in the dormitory who was similar to Lin Xu. No matter how hot it was in the summer, he would never take off his clothes in front of everyone.
There are six grown men in the dormitory. There is no air conditioning in the summer, so they basically walk around the dormitory in shorts.
Everyone teased that roommate a lot in the past four years, but Zhou Yan didn't take it seriously.
Now that Lin Xu is like this too, Zhou Yan thinks it is quite normal, just a matter of personal lifestyle habits.
Lin Xu closed his eyes, mustered up the courage to punch Zhou Yan: "Don't be greedy for my body, I don't have such a hobby."
Then he held his head high, not daring to look up, and walked straight to the dining table and sat down.
This meant that Lin Xu was not angry anymore. Zhou Yan rubbed his chest where he was hit, smiled and followed him.
"Don't worry, I won't eat your food for free. When I get my salary, I will treat you to a big meal." Lin Xu promised seriously.
When he was talking, the tuft of hair on his head was shaking around, which was really funny.
Zhou Yan suddenly thought of a breed of puppy - Yorkshire Terrier.
It also fits his image of a little puppy.
Zhou Yan unconsciously raised the corners of his lips: "Okay, I'll wait for the feast."
After Lin Xu finished his meal, he heated up some Chinese medicine and continued watching videos.
He doesn't have much time left, only tonight and tomorrow.
I went for an interview on Monday. This company is quite strong and influential in the industry.
Moreover, the office environment is also very good, which Lin Xu has always longed for.
He actually sent his resume to this company when he was a senior in college, but it fell on deaf ears and he didn't even get an interview opportunity.
Lin Xu is ready to fight again this time, trying to hit the target with one strike.
He carefully studied the award-winning works of that year and finally understood why he was not interviewed.
Just as Zhou Yan analyzed, this industry requires a keen sense of fashion, and he is already several versions behind.
In order not to disturb Zhou Yan's rest, Lin Xu took his computer back to his room after taking a shower.
But not long after, there was a knock on the door.
"Brother Zhou? Come in, the door is not locked."
Zhou Yan turned the handle and pushed the door open.
Holding a bottle of medicine in his hand, he said, "The doctor said you need to spray medicine on your legs for a few days."
"Oh, give it to me then. Thank you, Brother Zhou."
Lin Xu planned to take the medicine and spray it himself.
But Zhou Yan didn't give it to him. Instead, he walked to his bed and sat down. He held his ankle, lifted his injured leg and placed it on his own leg.
"Just spraying it won't work. You have to rub it in so it can be absorbed. Just watch yours, and I'll help you spray it."
"Well...I'd better do it myself..."
Zhou Yan didn't waste any time talking to him. He just opened the lid, held his calf and sprayed medicine on his wound.
From his perspective, how could a child who could give himself a heat stroke take care of himself?
Lin Xu's legs were held by Zhou Yan, and she was forced to feel the warmth of his palms. She didn't know where to put her hands and feet.
I had to focus on the computer and try to divert my attention.
While Zhou Yan was rubbing the medicine on him, he glanced around the room.
Most of the home furnishings arranged by Lin Xu are warm colors, mainly warm yellow and blue-gray.
Like the little clip on his head, bright and warm.
There were two big dolls on the bed, and Lin Xu was sandwiched between them, almost merging into one, just like three big dolls.
When Zhou Yan finally finished his work, he told Lin Xu to rest early, then took the medicine and went out.
Lin Xu let out a long sigh, put the computer aside, and collapsed on the bed.
He looked at the ceiling lamp above his head and sighed. Zhou Yan was such a nice and enthusiastic person.
It's simply impossible to refuse.
Lin Xu could only pray that the medicine would take effect first so that she would not fall for Zhou Yan, the straight man.
"Never mind, find a job first!"
Lin Xu suddenly shouted, sat up again, took the computer and continued studying.
What he has to do now is to make money and solve the problem of food and clothing.
As for the rest, you only need to worry about them as long as you don't starve yourself to death.
After thinking this through, Lin Xu put aside all distracting thoughts.
Lin Xu spent the entire day on Sunday buried in his computer, looking up information and taking notes, with no distractions.
Zhou Yan was washing clothes and cleaning outside.
In the afternoon, Zhou Yan was really worried that Lin Xu would damage his eyes, so he helped him out of the house and let him rest in the living room for a while.
Lin Xu stretched, looked towards the kitchen, and sniffed: "What smells so good?"
The image of the puppy scratching at the edge of the table appeared in Zhou Yan's mind again.
