Chapter 45

Qiu Yi went into the bathroom again and took a cold shower. After coming out, Tao Luanxi became obedient. She wrapped herself tightly in the quilt and lay quietly on the bed, but she didn't fall asleep.

Tao Luanxi tilted her ears to listen to the movement in the bathroom. She heard the bathroom door open, a series of deliberately low footsteps, and then the rustling sound of papers flipping. The other side of the bed sank. Tao Luanxi turned around and saw Qiu Yi sitting on the bed, looking at the letter he had written carefully.

"When did you pick it up?" Tao Luanxi blushed and reached out to grab it.

Qiu Yiju, the master: "I never threw it away. I kept it in my pocket."

Tao Luanxi's original plan was to let Qiu Yi read the letter when he was alone. After reading it, he would naturally understand Tao Luanxi's meaning. He didn't expect that the plan could not keep up with the changes. Now that the two of them had already broken the window paper, looking back at the letter, he was filled with shame.

"It's not well written, don't read it." Tao Luanxi's face turned red.

"No, since it's written, how can I not read it?"

During the scramble, the cards in the envelope fell out. The Ace of Hearts was already covered with creases from being ravaged. Qiu Yi picked it up and his eyes immediately became gentle: "Why did you think of bringing this card back?"

"I don't know. I put it on without realizing it. I only discovered it after I got home."

Qiu Yi held the Ace of Hearts in his hand and placed a gentle kiss on the heart of the heart. A few strands of black hair hung on his forehead, making him look less aggressive and more gentle. It was rare for Qiu Yi to be so serious and sentimental. Tao Luanxi saw this and suddenly felt that all her efforts during this period were not in vain.

"Go to sleep!"

Qiu Yi turned off the lights, kissed Tao Luanxi gently at the corner of her eyes, and whispered, "I like you."

The vision became dark, and the breath of the two people entangled between the quilts, which made people feel at ease for some reason. Tao Luanxi closed his eyes. He had been studying hard during this period and he had been worried about something, so he really didn't get enough rest. Now the big stone in his heart finally fell, and the fatigue that had accumulated recently poured out like water from a opened dam. Tao Luanxi turned over, lay on his side next to Qiu Yi's chest, and fell asleep in a short while.

She slept quite soundly that night until her mother knocked on the door. Then she opened her eyes drowsily and saw a strong arm across her chest. She turned her head to look at the owner of the arm and was stunned for several minutes before she recalled what happened last night.

"Xixi, come out for breakfast, are you up yet?"

Tao Luanxi was startled. She then remembered that she had not mentioned to her parents yesterday that someone was staying overnight at home today. When someone suddenly appeared in the room, her mother must have been shocked.

Qiu Yi also woke up at this moment, took a deep breath, and said in a low and hoarse voice, "Good morning!"

Tao Luanxi sighed in panic and said in a low voice: "Don't talk for now." After that, he hurriedly got up from the bed and opened the door handle, which was caught a little.

"Mom, when did you come back?"

"I got home at six. I came upstairs to call you after I finished making breakfast but you didn't come down yet. How come you overslept?"

"Yeah." Tao Luanxi responded vaguely, and leaned against the door frame, not knowing how to tell Mother Tao about Qiu Yi's matter.

"Well, Mom, a classmate of mine stayed over at our house yesterday and is in my room right now."

Mother Tao was stunned: "Boy?"

Tao Luanxi was speechless: "How else could she be a woman?"

"I was wondering why there was a pair of sneakers in the shoe cabinet that I had never seen before. They were obviously not your size." Mother Tao waved her hand and said, "Hurry up and change your clothes and come downstairs for breakfast. You should have told me earlier that someone was coming to the house. I have to go downstairs to prepare more things now!"

Mother Tao went downstairs while complaining, and Tao Luanxi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she didn't have any strange reaction. When she turned around, Qiu Yi was sitting on the bed, looking at her with a smile.

"What a joke!" Tao Luanxi rolled his eyes, put his hands on his hips and said, "You should know that your current identity is that you used to be a wild man who secretly married someone outside. It's good that you didn't get into trouble! What's wrong with hiding it a little?"

"Nothing, I just didn't expect you to protect me so much, I'm happy."

"You should be happy," Tao Luanxi jumped onto the bed, lifted Qiu Yi's chin and said frivolously, "Follow me obediently, and I promise you will have a good time!"

Qiu Yi followed Tao Luanxi's movements and grabbed the hand on his chin, brought it to his lips and kissed it: "Follow you, follow you all my life."

The two of them talked and laughed as they washed up and went downstairs. Tao Luanxi himself was surprised. In the past, it would have been better for him to die than to let him meet strangers without changing his clothes or tidying up. But now, even if he brushed his teeth with a messy hair under Qiu Yi's nose, he didn't think it was a big deal. Instead, he enjoyed this kind of intimacy.

It turns out that love makes people become rough.

Mother Tao came out of the kitchen carrying freshly baked egg pancakes and saw Tao Luanxi and Qiu Yi coming downstairs. Qiu Yi quickly called out, "Hello, Auntie." That smile was even more innocent than when Tao Luanxi was in school.

Tao Luanxi secretly complained in his heart, what a pretentious guy!

But Tao's mother was obviously very pleased. She smiled and asked Qiu Yi to sit down and eat. She turned around and scolded Tao Luanxi, "Our Xixi was so secretive this morning and didn't want to say anything. I thought he brought his girlfriend back! It turned out to be you!"

Tao Luanxi almost choked on his porridge and said unhappily, "What are you thinking? How can I bring my girlfriend back?"

Tao Luanxi glanced at Qiu Yi and said, "Forget about being a girlfriend, because your boyfriend is sitting next to you and eating breakfast right now!"

Tao's mother obviously liked Qiu Yi very much and kept asking him to eat more. Tao Luanxi picked up a piece of cake and put it in Qiu Yi's bowl: "It's not as varied as yours, but my mother's cooking is good. Don't be too picky, just eat whatever you want!"

"How could that be? This is already very good." Qiu Yi took a bite of the cake, raised his head and smiled at Mother Tao: "It's really delicious."

Mother Tao smiled particularly happily and kept praising Qiu Yi for his sweet words. Tao Luanxi looked at the breakfast that was almost pushed in front of Qiu Yi and suddenly realized that her status as the "big baby of the Tao family" was threatened.

"Mom, I want to eat the grandma's food that my second aunt brought."

"It's in the refrigerator, go get it yourself!"

Well! It turns out that the world is not worth it!

Tao Luanxi snorted, put down her chopsticks and went into the kitchen to look for salted vegetables. Tao's mother took the opportunity to approach Qiu Yi and said, "Qiu Yi, is our Xixi in love at school?"

"ah?"

"Well, I'm just asking casually." Mother Tao knew that she was a little abrupt, so she smiled and waved her hands: "There's nothing wrong between his father and me. It's okay for middle school students to have a relationship. I just think Xixi has been talking nonsense recently, and he didn't say anything when I asked him, so I came to ask you."

Qiu Yi looked up at Tao Luanxi's back in the kitchen, and after a few seconds of silence, he said, "I really don't know."

"During the winter vacation, Xixi even took the dumplings I made to a female classmate's home! They even stayed overnight!" Mother Tao breathed a sigh of relief: "The child has grown up and has his own concerns. We can't control him anymore. We just hope that he is fine."

At this time, Tao Luanxi came out with a lunch box and put it on the table. Silly girl came to his side, looking at him eagerly, hoping to ask for food. Tao Luanxi tapped his nose lightly with chopsticks: "There is no share for you. We are not favored. If you want to eat, you have to get it yourself!"

Mother Tao laughed: "You are so stingy! Are you jealous of your classmates?" After saying that, she stood up and took out a bag of frozen snacks from the cupboard and fed it to the silly girl.

After dinner, the two of them went out together. Tao Luanxi was particularly happy today. He jumped all the way to the subway exit with joy. After entering the subway station, Tao Luanxi coughed twice, put away the smile on his face, and acted like a campus tyrant.

Qiu Yi looked at the changes that happened in just five seconds and laughed, "We've only just arrived at the subway station."

"You don't understand. You might meet students from our school right now." Tao Luanxi said seriously. In fact, he couldn't help but feel excited. He grabbed Qiu Yi's hand and went downstairs: "Come on, today I will take you to experience the subway during rush hour!"

Tao Luanxi guessed that a young master like Qiu Yi would definitely not be used to such a crowded environment. Tao Luanxi had a selfish desire and wanted to see how Qiu Yi looked when he was embarrassed. Unfortunately, this guy adapted well and held on to the handrail with one hand to separate Tao Luanxi from the crowded crowd.

There was not much space in the subway, and Tao Luanxi and Qiu Yi were almost face to face. When Tao Luanxi raised his head, Qiu Yi's exposed skin was right in front of him. There were many people here, and Tao Luanxi didn't dare to have any other thoughts. He didn't know where to look, and in the end he was the one who was embarrassed.

Qiu Yi, who was standing above him, laughed in a muffled voice and leaned over to whisper in Tao Luanxi's ear: "What are you thinking about, big shot?"
