Xiao Yi and Qi Yan went to a fresh food supermarket and returned with a full bag.
Qi Yan went to the kitchen to prepare the base ingredients and other miscellaneous things. Taking this opportunity, Xiao Yi opened a bottle of red wine.
Facing Qi Yan's "staring" eyes, Xiao Yi smiled naturally: "You drink juice, and I drink red wine."
Seeing Qi Yan slightly relieved, Xiao Yi smiled even more deeply.
The steaming seafood hot pot was placed in the middle of the table. The moment the lid was opened, Qi Yan's saliva was about to flow out.
Xiao Yi pretended to take a bowl and took it under Qi Yan's chin, which caused Qi Yan to punch him.
Xiao Yi poured himself a glass of red wine, thought for a while, and poured Qi Yan a glass of juice. Everything was ready. When he was about to think of a way to light candles and create the atmosphere of a candlelight dinner, he found that Qi Yan was already very hungry.
- Well, the neighbor is too stupid and doesn't understand the mood, so let's just eat like this.
"Eat it, and continue to brush the dungeon after you finish eating." Xiao Yi, who could only use "games" to please his neighbor for the time being, decisively grasped Qi Yan's weakness.
Sure enough, after hearing Xiao Yi's words, Qi Yan was more motivated.
Spotting a big shrimp, Qi Yan picked it out, but because it was too hot, he couldn't bite it. He opened his mouth several times but failed.
Xiao Yi took the prawns that he had discarded, dipped them in some cool water, peeled the shells, and put them on Qi Yan's plate. "Eat it, I've peeled it for you."
"Good man!" Qi Yan called out gratefully, picking up the prawns and tasting them in small bites.
—— Damn, so fresh and delicious!
Xiao Yi, who was given the good guy card, sighed softly and comforted himself in his heart: Don't worry, there is a long way to go.
Halfway through the seafood feast, Qi Yan picked up the empty juice bottle and said with some regret: "Oh, I should have bought another bottle just now."
There was nothing to drink, Qi Yan wondered if he could use boiled water instead...
"Would you like to try this?" Xiao Yi suddenly pointed to the red wine on the side: "You are 23 years old, you can try to drink a little."
"Red wine..." Qi Yan still didn't want to drink it in his heart. After all, he really had no desire to drink "wine".
"Try it, when I was 18 years old and became an adult, my father forced me to drink two glasses."
Hearing Xiao Yi say this, Qi Yan also felt that he should take a step forward and give it a try.
Xiao Yi took out another tall wine glass from the cabinet, and when he came back, he found Qi Yan shaking his glass vigorously.
"What's wrong?"
"Study it..." Qi Yan sat back and took the wine glass from Xiao Yi.
"Don't study it, just taste it!" Xiao Yi chuckled and poured him half a glass.
Qi Yan picked up the glass, looked around carefully, and then took a sip under Xiao Yi's gaze.
"Ugh..." Qi Yan snorted, "It's not very tasty..."
"Then don't drink it, leave it there." Xiao Yi said, "Shall I buy another bottle of juice?"
"No, no!" Qi Yan waved his hands, "It's unreasonable to throw it away after drinking half of it, I have to finish it anyway!" With
an attitude of 'I'm going to fight it', Qi Yan took a big sip this time. After drinking it, he frowned and smacked his lips, and suddenly raised his eyebrows.
"Hey, it feels good!"
"Just drink it a few more times and it will be fine." Xiao Yi saw his eyebrows relax, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought it was very unpalatable the first few times I drank it, but after getting used to it, I think it tastes good."
"Have you ever drunk white wine and beer?"
"No white wine, I've drunk a little beer, but I don't like the taste."
"Oh, that's right. Drinking alcohol is not as good as drinking juice."
Xiao Yi smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's better to drink juice."
It is common for teenagers nowadays to drink soda. But there are too few boys like Qi Yan who are still keen on juice at the age of 23, and when they went to the supermarket just now, Qi Yan said that he was not interested in soda.
Juice was replaced with red wine, and Qi Yan also ate a lot of seafood. Xiao Yi, who was not very hungry, mostly watched Qi Yan eat. Seeing him eat with relish, he felt as sweet in his heart as if he was eating.
The red wine was almost empty before he knew it. Qi Yan thought about it, then took the bottle and poured another half glass.
"Does red wine make you drunk easily?" Qi Yan asked.
Xiao Yi thought about it and said, "I don't know. It depends on a person's absorption capacity. I won't get drunk after drinking three glasses, but four glasses would be a bit too much."
Xiao Yi was not a person who could drink, but for socializing, three glasses was the bottom line.
Qi Yan did not say anything else. Xiao Yi thought he had made up his mind and did not care.
When Qi Yan picked up the bottle to pour wine into his empty glass for the third time, Xiao Yi finally realized that something was wrong.
With slightly red cheeks, a raised pink mouth, hazy eyes and a confused consciousness, Xiao Yi was stunned.
——This silly and cute neighbor was obviously drunk!
"You can't drink anymore." Xiao Yi snatched the bottle: "You're drunk."
"Let go of me..." Qi Yan's mouth seemed to be filled with cotton: "Wine bottle..."
Xiao Yi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: "What do you mean your wine bottle? Be good, I'll peel shrimps for you."
Qi Yan frowned and raised his voice suddenly: "You want to peel them blindly?! You liar!"
"It's peeling shrimps, not peeling them blindly..." Xiao Yi patiently peeled a piece of shrimp for him and put it in his mouth: "Eat it."
Qi Yan smacked his lips, chewed it, and began to howl: "What is this, it smells like alcohol! You liar! No wonder you want to peel them blindly!"
Xiao Yi chuckled, how could such a silly neighbor be so funny!
After making a fuss, Qi Yan leaned back in his chair, looking up with no hope in life, dazedly looking at the dim light, and started to yell.
"Why is there a yellow light flashing there?"
"Because there is a wall lamp."
"Why is the wall lamp flashing yellow!"
"...I don't know."
"Why don't you know!"
"Because I'm not the one who decorated this apartment."
"Why aren't you the one who decorated the apartment!"
"..."
This question and answer went on like this until Qi Yan opened his mouth but couldn't speak, and fell asleep. Then Xiao Yi walked over, picked him up gently, and walked towards the bedroom.
[Xiao Yi's favorability towards Qi Yan +5, current favorability: 75]
His tender eyes fell on the rosy cheeks of the person in his arms, and the corners of Xiao Yi's mouth curled up.
Putting him on the soft big bed, Xiao Yi felt so weird.
Obviously there is no confirmed relationship, but his emotions are always moved by his joys and sorrows. Aren't homosexuals the most excluded in this world and in this society?
But... I just can't help it.
Who is wrong for a homosexual couple to love each other?
Xiao Yi caressed Qi Yan's smooth cheek lovingly, with a hint of defeat in his eyes.
Keep this feeling in your heart...
He will be criticized and ridiculed by the outside world because of your love.
-- He will be hurt.
