When Xia Zhitang was woken up by Qingluan's licking, his head was still dizzy.
I cried so hard while watching the live broadcast last night that I couldn't even sleep peacefully when I finally lay down.
Qingluan saw Xia Zhitang open his eyes, holding the dog dish in his mouth and wagging his tail at her eagerly.
Xia Zhitang sighed and got up to make a hot dog for Qingluan.
She looked at Qingluan happily eating in the bowl, and her mood improved a little. After thinking about it, she decided to ask for leave for it from attending class.
The full Qingluan squatted at the bathroom door holding the dog leash in his mouth, waiting for Xia Zhitang. The dog was full, why hadn't he gone out to play yet?
Half an hour later, Xia Zhitang was dragged out of the house by the dog while holding a piece of bread.
Before getting a dog, she really couldn't imagine what it meant to take the dog out for a walk every day. Although the dog is cute, now she really wants to go back to sleep.
"Qingluan, we've taken the wrong path. We're going to the park today." Xia Zhitang noticed Qingluan walking towards the parking lot and couldn't help but call out to it.
Qingluan stopped, tilted her head and looked at Xia Zhitang, thought for a few seconds, turned her head and sniffed, then walked towards the parking lot with determination.
Xia Zhitang followed reluctantly. Qingluan suddenly started wagging its tail excitedly. Xia Zhitang was a little confused, thinking that Lin Jingming had come.
When I looked up, I saw Gu Zian, wearing a black sun-protection mask and sportswear, getting out of a low-key black car.
Qingluan happily ran to Gu Zian's feet and wagged its tail at him.
Xia Zhitang felt as if his heart was pinched, stopped for a beat, and then he felt a sense of unreality and trance.
“Weren’t you in Hangzhou yesterday…”
Why did you appear before me today...
"Sister, I regret it." Gu Zian's eyes were red.
After Cheng Shubai conveyed Xia Zhitang's answer that he didn't want to choose either of the two, Gu Zian's inner regret grew day by day, and even the newcomer award he once dreamed of did not bring him the joy he had imagined.
He added the last paragraph of his thank-you speech himself. Although Xia Zhitang was reluctant to come to see him in person, he intuitively felt that his sister must be in front of the screen.
After the award ceremony, Gu Zian immediately booked a midnight flight back to Taipei.
After much persuasion from Brother Wang, he finally calmed down and forced himself to go home, change his clothes, and drive a low-key car straight to the downstairs of Xia Zhitang's house.
The moment she appeared with the dog, Gu Zian wanted to rush over to her.
Before he could make a move, her dog pulled her over!
Gu Zian felt that their fate was not over yet!
"Zi'an..." Xia Zhitang also wanted to cry. She opened her mouth, but she didn't know where to start when the words came to her lips.
"Got a dog?" Gu Zian squatted down and touched Qingluan's furry head.
"Yeah." Xia Zhitang looked down at his toes and answered softly.
"What's its name?" Gu Zian wanted to pick up the white Samoyed and kiss it.
Xia Zhitang replied slowly: "Qingluan."
Gu Zian's eyes lit up, and he smiled under his mask: "Nice name."
Xia Zhitang lowered his eyes and did not answer.
Gu Zian noticed that Xia Zhitang was still wearing the diamond ring pendant he had given her. At that moment, he understood everything.
"Sister, I miss you."
He stood up with tears in his eyes, hugged Xia Zhitang with one hand, took off his mask with the other hand and kissed her.
Xia Zhitang only felt that he was surrounded by a familiar smell that made him nostalgic, and his body had already responded by hugging his neck.
At this moment, Gu Zian experienced the feeling of regaining what he had lost. It was so sour and swollen, so precious, and so fortunate.
He hugged her tightly, his mind clamoring for deeper contact and communication.
"Sister, go home." Gu Zian's nose touched Xia Zhitang's, his eyes slightly opened, and his voice was filled with infinite charm.
Xia Zhitang stood on tiptoe and kissed Gu Zian's moist lips: "Well, let's go home."
Gu Zian wanted to pick up Xia Zhitang, but she struggled: "No, we'll be photographed."
"If we take the photos, we'll make them public." Gu Zian no longer cared about the public opinion storm. "We've been hiding it for two years, laying the groundwork for two years. I've had enough."
"And Qingluan!" Xia Zhitang patted Gu Zian's shoulder and looked straight at the furry kid who was squatting on the side watching the fun.
Gu Zian put the person down and squatted on the ground to pick up the dog leash that had fallen on the ground: "Qingluan, be good and go home with mom and dad."
He held Xia Zhitang in one hand and the dog in the other, and ran back with a smile.
"Slow down." Xia Zhitang smiled as he was dragged along.
Qingluan barked with excitement, not knowing why.
He rushed to the door of Xia Zhitang's house in one breath, and Gu Zian couldn't help but press him against the iron gate and kissed him.
"Let's go home first." Xia Zhitang's breathing became unstable due to the kiss.
After finally opening the fingerprint lock, the two stumbled into the door.
"Qingluan, come in." Xia Zhitang did not forget to call back the dog who was reluctant to go home.
After Qingluan entered, Gu Zian kicked the door shut with his foot: "Sister, pay attention."
"Go into the room and don't lead the child astray." Xia Zhitang panted while biting his ear.
"Okay." Gu Zian carried the person back to the room and locked the door with a "bang".
Qingluan lay at the door with a wronged look on her face, listening to the strange noises faintly coming from the other side of the door with her ears perked up.
"Sister, sister." Gu Zian's voice was filled with extreme desire.
"Yeah. Zi'an, be gentle, be gentler." Xia Zhitang's voice was a little broken and dissonant.
"I miss you, sister. Do you miss me?" His voice was hoarse and seductive.
"Yes, yes." Her answer was soft and lovely.
When Xia Zhitang was awakened by the smell of food, Gu Zian's voice was faintly heard from the living room.
"Qingluan, is this your dog food?"
"Woof!"
"Are you eating now?"
"Woof woof!"
She reached out and picked up the clothes folded at the head of the bed, quietly put them on under the quilt, and then walked out barefoot.
Gu Zian was stuffing Qingluan's dog food into the microwave, and Qingluan was wagging her tail and looking at him expectantly.
"Heat on high for 2 minutes."
"Sister, we can eat now that the soup is ready."
Gu Zian looked at Xia Zhitang, who was wearing pajamas with messy hair, and felt that this moment was really happy.
God knows that ever since Xia Zhitang moved his things away, the moment he opened the door, he felt endless emptiness and loneliness that dragged him into the abyss of darkness.
At that moment, he suddenly realized that Lin Jingming was not important at all. It didn't matter even if Xia Zhitang lied to him, as long as she was willing to continue to be with him.
The two of them sat at the dining table. Xia Zhitang looked at Gu Zian who was spooning soup for her, then looked at Qingluan who was happily eating beside her, and felt a little dazed for a moment.
Last night she was still curled up on the sofa crying while watching Gu Zian’s award-winning video, and today he was sitting in front of her.
"Am I still dreaming?"
"Sister, it's true. I'm right in front of you." Gu Zian brought the soup to Xia Zhitang and bent down to kiss her.
"Look, I'm here." Gu Zian whispered.
"That's great." Xia Zhitang put his arms around his waist and listened to his heartbeat.
After a while, she suddenly remembered the reason for their last breakup: "Zi'an, I promised to go with Lin Jingming to shoot the next documentary."
"Well, as long as you don't sleep with him, I can do it." Gu Zian set a humble bottom line for himself.
"My moral bottom line is not that low."
Gu Zian leaned over and kissed her lips to stop her from speaking.
As they kissed, Xia Zhitang had forgotten what he was about to say. He only felt that Gu Zian's fingertips were electric, and wherever they touched, waves of numbness arose.
"The food is getting cold." Xia Zhitang turned around and tried to escape, but was pulled back.
“Wait a minute to heat it up.”
Qingluan saw out of the corner of her eye that the two of them hugged each other and stumbled back to the room and closed the door.
It seemed to have gotten used to the two people's strange game and was completely immersed in the joy of eating.
When Xia Zhitang accompanied Lin Jingming to the hospital for a follow-up visit, Lin Jingming stared at her as soon as he got in the car.
"I've found a great old Chinese doctor. I'll start going there for treatment next week." Xia Zhitang felt his hair stand on end as he was being stared at, but he tried his best to pretend he didn't see it.
Lin Jingming finally withdrew his gaze: "You and Gu Zian have reconciled."
"Yes." Xia Zhitang didn't intend to hide it, but he didn't want to continue talking about his love life with him.
"I can go see a doctor on my own later." Lin Jingming suddenly said, looking at the clouds outside the window, "I need to scout the location before filming the documentary."
"Okay, when you're almost ready, let's go together." Xia Zhitang asked while steering, "Have you decided on a topic?"
"Girls' high school or hospital, let's go take a look and get a feel for it first."
"good."
The weather gradually warmed up in April, and the two boarded a plane to Yun Province.
After getting off the plane, the two successfully met up with the wheat-skinned docking personnel.
They got on a Wuling Hongguang and drove along the road into the depths of the mountains.
Although the road has been paved with cement, it is still a winding mountain road, which is very exciting to drive.
Xia Zhitang was originally sitting on the right side. As the car made a sharp turn, he felt as if he was going to be thrown out of the car and fall off the cliff at any time.
"If you're afraid, don't look. Sit in the middle." Lin Jingming saw that Xia Zhitang looked unhappy, so he changed seats with her.
"The newly built road is very safe. The old dirt roads were unsafe. If you drove too fast, the dirt would fall off the edge." The driver said while honking the horn and turning the steering wheel.
"Was this a dirt road before?" Lin Jingming held the handrail on the roof with one hand and put his arm around Xia Zhitang's shoulder with the other.
"Yes, it was just built in the front. Two years ago, we had to build a dirt road here."
Xia Zhitang and Lin Jingming looked at each other and silently fastened their seat belts.
After two hours of bumpy ride, the two finally saw a small town sandwiched between the mountains.
"Does it look like something from a 90s TV drama?" Lin Jingming looked at the small town at the foot of the mountain and whispered in Xia Zhitang's ear.
"Riding a 28-inch bike to work?" Xia Zhitang glanced out the window, feeling a little dizzy from the bumping. "I finally understand what it means to have mountains beyond the mountains, endless mountains."
"It's not like we haven't been to mountainous areas before, but it feels a little different here." Lin Jingming said in a low voice.
Xia Zhitang thought for a moment: "There are too many people and it's remote."
"Xia Xia, look to the right." Lin Jingming's expression suddenly became serious.
When Xia Zhitang looked up, he happened to pass by a young face. The face still had baby fat, but was topped with a round belly.
The two looked at each other, each with a hint of shock and deep thought in their eyes.
