After Tao Mingzhuo said these words, not only Jing Ci beside him fell silent, but also Doctor Wen who was playing ball alone next to him seemed to understand, wagging his tail and looking at him blankly.


Jing Ci suspected that he might have heard wrongly, so he hesitated and asked, "What?"


He saw Tao Mingzhuo blush suspiciously at first.


Then Tao Mingzhuo became confident again and said with his head held high: "Everyone has desires. Your biggest desire now is to eat. As for me... I don't want to take anything material from you, so I don't want to take anything away from you." There is no other choice, we just do what we need."


In fact, even Tao Mingzhuo himself didn't understand what he just said.


Jing Ci stared at his face, blinked his eyes after a moment, smiled as if he understood something, and said, "I understand."


Tao Mingzhuo actually felt guilty.


He thought for a while, then choked for a long time before he finally managed to say: "Then... help me wipe the sweat off my face. This is for the breakfast just now."


Jing Ci said, "Okay."


Tao Mingzhuo found out , when the domineering president in comics says something like "exchange with your body", he is always full of momentum.


But when it came to him, not only did he lose any momentum bonus, but Tao Mingzhuo himself felt extremely ashamed.


In addition, he couldn't say anything mean to Jing Ci, so not only did he not show any sadomasochistic feelings of forced love, but he also had a kind of... Kindergarten play house where he exchanged kisses and hugs for food. feel.


While lost in thought, Jing Ci had already pulled out a tissue from the paper drawer beside him, raised his hand, and gently wiped the sweat from Tao Mingzhuo's forehead.


Jing Ci's movements were very gentle.


Tao Mingzhuo's nose felt inexplicably sore, and he suddenly felt that he had no future.


He found that he couldn't get angry at Jing Ci at all. As long as Jing Ci treated him a little better, Tao Mingzhuo began to wonder if he was too harsh when he spoke just now, if his tone was too harsh, and he couldn't bear it. I wanted to hold Jing Ci's hand, tell him that I didn't mean to say that, and ask him if we could reconcile right away.


While he was lost in thought, he heard Jing Ci ask: "Can I pay for today's lunch in advance?"


Tao Mingzhuo was stunned for a moment.


He actually didn't understand what Jing Ci meant, but he still said hesitantly: "Okay."


Jing Ci nodded, then hooked his hand around Tao Mingzhuo's neck and kissed his mouth like a dragonfly.


It was a very light and brief kiss, but it was this disconnected feeling that instantly made Tao Mingzhuo's whole soul drift away.


Just when Tao Mingzhuo couldn't help but kiss back, Jing Ci let go of his hand and leaned back slightly.


Jing Ci smiled and asked, "Is this okay?"


Tao Mingzhuo was stunned for a long time. He lowered his head in panic to hide his unfinished thoughts, and coughed: "Yes, it's okay."


Tao Mingzhuo found that he suddenly He didn't regret it that much anymore, and he thought it might be a good idea to wait a few days before reconciling.


He thought about it for a moment, and then immediately added in a hoarse voice: "But the decision-making power is in my hands. It's best to ask me if it's feasible next time before taking action. Do you understand?"


Jing Ci smiled.


He said: "Follow your orders."


Tao Mingzhuo was very energetic, and the next day he produced a complete "Meal Change Guide 1.0".


Tao Mingzhuo pointed to the items he had listed and said, "Breakfast is relatively simple, and it can be exchanged for relatively simple physical contact such as helping to get dressed, a good morning kiss or a touch on the head."


Jing Ci nodded.


Tao Mingzhuo coughed and turned the page: "For lunch, because we usually eat in the company most of the time, the environment will be more limited, but the privacy of your office is okay, so I will kiss and hug you Choose one of these two...do you think it's reasonable?"


Jing Ci said, "It's reasonable."


Tao Mingzhuo said "hmm" and turned to the last page with a blush: "As for dinner, it's more reasonable. It's complicated, because I personally feel that dinner is the most important meal of the day, so..."


Jing Ci looked at his face and said with a smile: "Actually, even if you don't eat with me, I am willing to eat with you. Do these things."


Tao Mingzhuo was stunned for a moment.


Five seconds later, Tao Mingzhuo blushed and began to speak incoherently: "I, I didn't say that I like to be intimate with you, I just feel that if you watch me eat for nothing, I feel like I am at a loss, but I I don’t want you to use material compensation or exchange, so I can only reluctantly let you and me..."


Jing Ci: "..."


Tao Mingzhuo is very addicted to this mode of getting along like a trading game.


After getting up in the morning, Jing Ci was ironing clothes. Tao Mingzhuo stood dazedly on the bed for a while and then got out of bed. He took a shirt from the closet and put it on.


Halfway through the buttoning, Tao Mingzhuo suddenly remembered something and immediately became energetic.


Tao Mingzhuo turned his head and glanced, seeing Jing Ci's back to him, so he secretly unbuttoned the few buttons he had just fastened.


Jing Ci turned around and saw a tall young man with a shirt hanging loosely on his body. He was standing in front of him with his chest exposed and his arms open openly.


Tao Mingzhuo said confidently: "In exchange for your breakfast."


Jing Ci: "..."


Every day after dinner, Tao Mingzhuo will ask Jing Ci to weigh himself. During the weighing, he is not allowed to wear shoes or hold his mobile phone, and He will strictly record it and observe the increase on a weekly basis.


Jing Ci stared at the number on the scale and said, "I'm almost two pounds fatter."


Tao Mingzhuo looked unhappy: "Is there something wrong with the scale? Why have you watched me eat every day for so many days? Or is he growing up so slowly?"


He pondered for a moment, then looked at Jing Ci hesitantly: "Am I still eating too fast in the past two days? Or...we usually sit too far apart when we eat. You can't see my face clearly, so the effect is not good?"


Jing Ci couldn't laugh or cry: "...It takes time to grow flesh."


Tao Mingzhuo naturally knew this truth, but he was still dissatisfied with Jing Ci's speed of growing flesh. So satisfied.


When they were cooking together in the kitchen, Tao Mingzhuo said seriously: "You just eat too little. You have to know that you are eating not only for yourself, but also for me. After all, I am tied to you now." Come on, if something goes wrong with your body, not only will you feel uncomfortable, but I will also bear the responsibility, thus indirectly suffering the condemnation of conscience..."


Jing Ci found that Tao Mingzhuo's words were really interesting.


What he obviously wanted to express was "you need to eat more", but he added a long string of harsh words later in order to cover up his concern. It was so awkward, as if he couldn't express his feelings properly.


Jing Ci shook his head.


Jing Ci didn't know what Tao Mingzhuo was thinking about in this so-called "body-for-food" deal between the two.


But he knew that the reason why Tao Mingzhuo became so naughty was ultimately because he felt insecure. It was like a way for small animals to protect themselves. He thought that as long as he said he didn't care, he showed his tough-looking body. Externally, you will no longer be hurt in any way.


Jing Ci was willing to play such a game with Tao Mingzhuo, but he also knew the crux of the problem between the two. He realized that he still needed to do something more.


He sighed silently in his heart, and his eyes immediately fell on a small plastic bag placed in the corner of the kitchen countertop.


This bag seemed to have been here for a day or two, and I never had time to pack it away. Jing Ci thought it should be some ingredients that Tao Mingzhuo bought from the supermarket.


When she opened the bag and saw what was inside, Jing Ci was slightly startled.


Tao Mingzhuo put the cut vegetables aside on the cutting board and asked casually: "Would you like to boil some water first?"


However, Tao Mingzhuo waited for a long time and did not wait for a reply from the person next to him. He raised his eyes and found that Jing Ci's back was facing him.


Jing Ci didn't speak. He stood in front of a plastic bag, as if looking down at something.


Tao Mingzhuo stepped forward and took a look, and his head suddenly exploded with buzzing.


The two small boxes of things in Jing Ci's hand were actually the ones he took when he bought fruit snacks for Tao Xue and Li Lan...


When he checked out last time, Tao Mingzhuo packed them separately from chewing gum and other snacks. In two different plastic bags. However, so many things happened in the past two days, and a lot of new kitchen utensils were added to the kitchen, and many things were piled up in a mess, Tao Mingzhuo forgot about it.


He saw Jing Ci pick up one of the small boxes, look at it for a moment, then raised his head, and asked thoughtfully, "Did you buy it?"


Tao Mingzhuo's scalp was numb with shame, and his brain began to race. In the past


two days, what Tao Mingzhuo has been showing in front of Jing Ci is "I am ruthless, I have no desires, and all the intimacy between you and me is just a transaction." Such steel Generally hard mental outlook.


As a result, Jing Ci dug out something like this from the shopping bag in the supermarket with his own hands, and the character that was finally erected was crumbling in an instant.


Even though they were just two small boxes, Tao Mingzhuo felt that all the eagerness and hunger in his heart... seemed to be seen through by Jing Ci in an instant.


Tao Mingzhuo knew that at times like this, he couldn't panic.


"That's right." Tao Mingzhuo nodded nonchalantly and said, "I bought it. What's wrong?"


"After all, it's a bit too troublesome for the two of us to change meals like this every day." Tao Mingzhuo Zhuo Yue spoke more and more vigorously, and finally looked into Jing Ci's eyes and raised his face confidently, "So if you dare... you can come to me directly in exchange for three days of food in one go."


You are already embarrassed like this. To the extent that Tao Mingzhuo was able to insist on changing meals in the end, it was indeed a level of toughness that others could not match.


Jing Ci stared at Tao Mingzhuo's face thoughtfully for a while.


After a while, Tao Mingzhuo saw him smiling gently at himself.


Jing Ci said, "If I could exchange it for three days' worth of food, I would really be tempted, but for today... let's forget it."


Tao Mingzhuo was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Jing Ci to refuse so quickly.


This was actually the answer Tao Mingzhuo expected, but the moment he heard Jing Ci say it so simply and personally, his heart inevitably sank.


But Tao Mingzhuo also knew in his heart that even if he had a meal change as a cover, he would suddenly mention such a thing without any foreshadowing... It was already a bit too much.


Tao Mingzhuo pretended to be calm and looked away, and after a while he said, "Okay, if you're scared, then you'd better-"


Jing Ci shook his head and interrupted him softly: "It's not because I'm scared."


Tao Mingzhuo Zhuo was stunned for a moment. He saw Jing Ci stretch out his hand, then raised his index finger and tapped the outer packaging of the small box slightly.


Jing Ci lowered his eyes, studied the words on the box for a moment, and then smiled softly.


He said: "If my memory is correct, your size... seems to be a little smaller."


Tao Mingzhuo was stunned.


Jing Ci raised her eyes and walked step by step in front of Tao Mingzhuo.


"Of course, we don't have to use it." Jing Ci said warmly, bending his eyes.


Tao Mingzhuo's breath was stagnant.


He saw Jing Ci's fingertips use a little force to pick up the small box casually, then raised his hand and threw it back into the plastic bag neatly and accurately.


"As long as you are willing to give me a better welfare price, you can exchange it for two more days of food." Jing Ci asked with a smile, "Is the deal done?"
