Wei You observed the other person's expression and nodded honestly, but no matter how carefully he looked, he could not see any cloud on Wei Xu's face.
"Don't you find it hard to accept?"
"I minded it a little at first," Wei Xu thought for a while and said frankly, "but then I thought, if it weren't for this game, I wouldn't have met you, so now, I am very grateful to it. Thanks to this game, you can come to me and accompany me for so long."
At this point, he smiled comfortably, and the light shining in from the car window flowed on his face, sometimes bright and sometimes dark, like a quiet and soft movie scene.
Wei You stared at his blurry and handsome face flashing under the street light, and was so absorbed in it for a moment that he suddenly came back to his senses until the driver said "We're here".
Thinking that his actions just now might have been noticed by the other party, Wei You couldn't help feeling ashamed. He didn't expect that he also had a tendency to be obsessed with looks in this regard.
After getting out of the car, Wei You wrapped his coat tightly again. Wei Xu wanted to grab his hand, but Wei You dodged it without leaving a trace.
He reminded: "Behave yourself now, my parents are at home."
"Isn't there still some distance to go?" Wei Xu looked at the road towards the community ahead.
Wei You didn't respond, and walked towards the entrance of the community. When Wei Xu caught up with him, he said in a child's tone: "If my parents ask about it later, I will say that you are a friend I met at work. You should also be smart and be polite, okay?"
"Of course. I will respect your parents as my own."
"That doesn't have to be the case."
"It will happen sooner or later anyway." Wei Xu said softly.
Wei You heard his muttering but did not refute it. On the one hand, it was because the wind was too cold and he could not open his mouth. On the other hand, he knew that it would be useless even if he refuted it, as this kid was incredibly stubborn in this regard.
About two or three minutes later, Wei You and Wei Xu took the elevator to the door of their home on the eighth floor.
Just as he was about to use the key to open the door, Wei You suddenly felt his sleeve being tugged. He turned around and saw Wei Xu frowning and looking nervous.
"What's wrong?"
"I was negligent. Shouldn't I have come here empty-handed?"
"It's okay, my family doesn't care about this." Wei You said, and then he used the key to unlock the door. When he entered the room, he shouted, "Dad, Mom, I brought my friend here."
Rong Qing had received Wei You's message a long time ago. Upon hearing it, she came over to greet the guests and turned on the light in the entrance hall.
Seeing Wei Xu standing behind her, her eyes lit up and she said in a gentle tone, "What a spirited young man!"
Wei Xu rarely showed a shy expression and nodded, "Hello, Auntie. My name is Wei Xu."
"Hello, hello, come in quickly, just wear the white pair of slippers, I just brought the clean pair over!"
Wei You couldn't stand his mother's voice full of smiles and warmth, and complained: "Why aren't you usually so gentle to your son?"
Rong Qing patted his back unceremoniously and whispered, "I'm tired of seeing you, but you're still gentle. Go make tea for them."
Wei You secretly thought that Wei Xu was not a guest at all, he wished he could become a member of the family and step in.
Although he was worried, Wei You still listened to his mother and went to the kitchen to make tea.
After a while, Wei Zhongqun also came over with a teacup in his hand. Seeing Wei Xu, he couldn't help but sigh: "The boy is quite tall, maybe even taller than Youyou."
Wei Xu had just changed his shoes, and he raised his head and greeted again: "Hello, uncle."
Wei Zhongqun nodded and asked a curious question: "Where are you from?"
"I'm from Chuanlin."
"Chuanlin, I thought you were from the north, you're so tall." Wei Zhongqun said with a smile as he turned around and led Wei Xu to the living room, saying, "Sit down, don't be restrained, treat it like your own home. Youyou rarely brings friends back to live with you, so he must value you as a friend by bringing you back."
"Really?" Wei Xu sat down on the sofa, his eyes unconsciously following Wei You's back, he smiled slightly and asked, "You haven't brought your girlfriend back yet?"
"He has a girlfriend?" Wei's father seemed to have misunderstood his words.
"No," Wei Xu shook his head, "I mean, he never brought a girlfriend back before, didn't he?"
"Oh, how can he get a girlfriend? He stays at home all day long." Rong Qing brought a fruit plate and put it on the coffee table, "Xiao Wei, have some fruit."
"Thank you, Auntie."
"What are you guys talking about?" Wei You handed the hot tea to Wei Xu and met the young man's eyes. "Are you saying bad things about me?"
"No," Wei Xu took the hot tea with both hands and blinked innocently, "How dare I."
Wei You sneered and didn't respond.
"Is Xiao Wei working?" Rong Qing asked.
"No, he's still in school." Wei You helped answer.
Wei Xu nodded: "Yes, I am currently studying in the Department of Architecture at Jinda University."
"The Department of Architecture, they are top students, future architects." Wei Zhongqun became excited, and the way he looked at Wei Xu suddenly changed from looking at a junior to looking at an aspiring young man.
Rong Qing also said: "Youyou wanted to take the entrance exam to Jinda University but failed, so he went to Xuchang."
"Can you please stop talking about this?" Wei You muttered, regretting a little bit that he had brought Wei Xu here.
Wei Zhongqun seemed quite interested in studying architecture, and immediately asked about Wei Xu's future career direction and work plans.
Wei You saw that they were chatting happily and Wei Xu didn't seem to be restrained at all, so he stood up and said, "I'll go take a shower first, you guys chat slowly."
Rong Qing said "Hey", and asked, "Did Xiao Wei bring clothes?"
"No, because I just came here because I met him halfway, so..." Wei Xu replied.
"It's okay, just wear mine." Wei You said casually and turned back to the room.
Today, he first got his pants covered in dust in the secret room, and then he was covered in the smell of hot pot after eating hot pot. Wei You couldn't bear it any longer, so as soon as he returned to the room, he took his clothes and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
After changing into pajamas and blow-drying his hair, he rummaged through the closet for a long time and finally found a set of clothes that fit Wei Xu's size.
He was just about to ask someone to come in and take a shower, but as soon as he opened the door, he heard his mother talking to Wei Xu about the criteria for finding a wife.
Wei Xu asked: "If it were you, what kind of daughter-in-law would you want?"
"Auntie has very low requirements. It's good enough if he can find something he likes. Don't be fooled by his usually indifferent appearance. He is actually very picky." Rong Qing replied with a smile.
Then he added, "But it would be best if I were to find a wife who is filial and doesn't have to come from a very good family, just an average one would be fine. Most importantly, she has to be kind and well-educated, and she has to be loyal to my son. I know my son, he is very stubborn. If he gets together with someone, he will treat that person with all his heart and will never do anything to let them down."
"Yeah, I think so too." Wei Xu agreed.
"Yeah, you're his friend so you can definitely tell that he's not the type to play tricks."
"Mom, what are you talking about with him?" Wei You was worried that if they continued talking, his mother would expose all his past, so he quickly interrupted their chat, pulled Wei Xu up and said, "Go take a shower, you smell like hot pot."
Wei Xu raised his hand and sniffed his sleeve, then held his hand out in front of him and asked, "I can't really smell it, is it very strong?"
Wei You lowered his head and sniffed: "A little bit."
"You guys had hot pot tonight, you need to wash it," Rong Qing was chatting excitedly, still a little reluctant to finish. Hearing this, she could only stand up and say, "Take Xiao Wei to your room and bathroom to wash. There are new towels and toothpaste and toothbrushes in the cabinet. How about I get them for you?"
"No, no, I know where it is." Wei You pushed her back onto the sofa.
Father Wei raised his head and said, "Just sit down for a while. Your son will entertain his guests himself."
"Oh, it's not that he rarely brings a friend back, and Xiao Wei is a very likable kid, handsome, and polite..."
With Rong Qing praising Wei Xu in the background, Wei You took Wei Xu back to the room.
As soon as he closed the door, he couldn't help but glance at Wei Xu and said, "You are quite good at pleasing your elders. In just a short while, my mother couldn't bear to see you go."
Wei Xu looked around the room when he entered. When he caught sight of the photo of Wei You's family of three when he was a child on the desk, he couldn't help but smile.
Then he raised his eyebrows: "Are you jealous?"
Wei You snorted lightly and said deliberately: "Yeah, I'm so jealous. I have no status in the family since you came."
"Don't say that. Actually, your aunt is concerned about you. I only talked to her about you." Wei Xu explained seriously, as if he was really afraid that he would be unhappy.
"What are you talking about? What kind of questions are you asking?" Wei You couldn't help but complain.
"As your suitor, isn't it normal for me to want to know your parents' preferences?"
"Then what you understand is my mother's standards for her daughter-in-law. What does it have to do with you? Can you change your gender?"
Wei Xu was speechless for a moment, and after a while he muttered quietly: "It's almost the same anyway."
Wei You pretended not to hear and handed him the clothes he had found: "The underwear is disposable, see if you can wear it."
Wei Xu unfolded the clothes and took a look, and said, "It should be OK."
"Then go in and take a shower. The shower gel is the brand I usually buy. You should know it."
Wei Xu responded, then changed into slippers and went into the bathroom with his clothes.
Seeing the bathroom door closed, Wei You breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to sit on the bed and play with his phone, a voice came from the bathroom again: "Brother, you didn't give me the towel."
Wei You remembered this and quickly replied, "You wash it first, I'll get it."
Wei You took the towel and passed it in through the crack in the door, thinking that he could finally sit down and rest for a while.
But the silence didn't last long. Wei Xu came up to him with wet hair and a hair dryer in his hand and said, "Brother, help me blow dry my hair."
Wei You raised his head: "Don't you have hands?"
"I'm so tired that I can't lift my hands."
"Why are you so tired? You're even more careful when telling lies." Having said that, Wei You still took the hair dryer.
After plugging the plug into the socket beside the bed, Wei You asked Wei Xu to sit on the edge of the bed while he stood and blow-dried his hair.
As the switch was turned on, the buzzing sound of the hair dryer filled the room and a refreshing scent of shampoo floated in the air.
In fact, Wei You didn't hate blow-drying Wei Xu's hair. After all, it didn't take much time to blow-dry short hair. Besides, Wei Xu's hair was fine and soft. After being blow-dried, the hair became thick and smooth, and it felt very comfortable to touch.
Every time he ran his fingers through the other person's hair roots and slid them down, he would have the illusion that he was stroking a spoiled cat.
After quickly drying his hair, Wei You unplugged the hair dryer. Just as he was about to put it back in the bathroom, Wei Xu suddenly raised his hands and put them around his waist.
Wei You was startled, turned around and asked, "What are you doing?"
Wei Xu hugged his waist, lowered his head and buried it in his lower back, taking a deep breath.
After a moment of silence, he replied in a low voice like a dream: "Brother, I miss you so much."
Wei You felt as if his voice was transmitted through the vibration of his spine. He couldn't help but feel numb in his heart and said in an unnatural tone: "Why did you suddenly bring up this?"
Wei Xu turned his head and put his left ear against his back, his cold voice revealing a lyrical tone: "Although I said before that whether you accept it or not, I will wait for you forever, but..."
He took a breath and spoke again like an unloved puppy begging to his master: "But waiting for someone is really tiring, very tiring. Can you please not make me wait any longer?"
