Previous | Table of Contents | Next



It was late at night when the call ended.


After hanging up, Tao Mingzhuo immediately ran to the bathroom and took a shower. When he came out, he drank two large bottles of water, but he still felt as if there was a hot fire burning in his heart.


Although you can see the other person's face through the screen and hear the other person's clear breathing through the earpiece, you can never really touch the person you miss.


To Tao Mingzhuo, everything the two of them did across the screen just now seemed like scratching an itch, but it only made the fire in his heart get stronger and stronger.


This is what it feels like to live like a year. Just halfway through these seemingly short ten days, Tao Mingzhuo felt that he couldn't hold it in any longer.


He sent a message to Jing Ci, with hints inside and outside: "Yang Kening just told me that this Friday is a holiday, and with two days on the weekend, it will be a short vacation."


Jing Ci replied: "Okay Ah, you have been very busy recently, so you should take a break."


Tao Mingzhuo pursed his lips.


"I miss you" was entered and deleted in the dialog box, deleted and entered again, and finally turned into an extremely awkward sentence: "I think the mashed potato steak you showed me last time looks delicious. ... I kind of want to try it myself."


After a while, Jing Ci replied with a subtle "little frog smile" expression.


Jing Ci: "Come to me."


A few days later, at dusk, Jing Ci stepped out of the hotel elevator and immediately saw Tao Ming standing at the door of the hotel, carrying a backpack and staring at the fountain at the door. Burn.


When Tao Mingzhuo was looking at it in awe, he suddenly felt someone pulling him from behind.


He took a few steps back in confusion, and found Jing Ci standing behind him, saying, "Be careful."


When he came back to his senses, Tao Mingzhuo found that clusters of explosions had exploded not far from where he had just stood. The huge splash of water, if Jing Ci had not pulled him away, he would have been poured into a ready-made drowned rat at this moment.


Tao Mingzhuo was stunned: "..."


Jing Ci said: "The day before yesterday, I saw someone standing in the same position as you. He was not so lucky. He was doused with water."


Tao Mingzhuo was frightened for a while: "... It's a hidden weapon."


Jing Ci smiled: "Is the fountain so beautiful?" Tao


Mingzhuo nodded: "It's beautiful. The color change of the water is very complicated."


"Isn't the water a transparent color?"


He said very strangely: "No, water is transparent, but the light and scenery next to the water are all colored. Transparency is actually a kind of texture, because it involves the refraction and reflection of light, so it is more difficult to draw normally. The presentation also depends on the artist's skills and skills..."


Tao Mingzhuo realized that he was talking a lot of boring things to Jing Ci, so he cleared his throat and said, "Let's go eat."


They went to eat. U.S.’s famous mashed potatoes with steak.


It looked pretty good, but Tao Mingzhuo almost spit out his mouth after taking one bite.


He never expected that a small lump of mashed potatoes could contain the five flavors of sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty at the same time, and there were countless mysterious and strange spices in it.


After coming out of the restaurant, Tao Mingzhuo saw Jing Ci pointing to an alley next to him and asked, "Would you like to go for a walk there?"


Tao Mingzhuo glanced at the dark alley and felt that it was too big. It might be a bit unsafe to walk at night.


But when he raised his eyes and looked into Jing Ci's smiling eyes, Tao Mingzhuo swallowed the words of rejection after swirling around his lips. He hesitated for a moment, and finally agreed: "Okay."


Tao Mingzhuo initially thought that Jing Ci He was just wandering around aimlessly.


But as he walked, Tao Mingzhuo discovered that Jing Ci seemed to be familiar with this road. He rarely looked around, but kept moving forward, as if he had a destination in mind.


The alley is very narrow, with dim street lights, and is flanked on both sides by small, exotic buildings made of red bricks. The ground floors of the small buildings are all shops.


Most of the shops have been closed, but the windows of a few small shops are still lit with dim orange lights, which makes it quite interesting to browse.


While strolling around, Jing Ci stopped.


Tao Mingzhuo also stopped. He raised his head and subconsciously glanced at the shop sign.


Tao Mingzhuo opened his eyes wide: "This is..."


Jing Ci took Tao Mingzhuo to a store selling paint.


This brand is not unfamiliar to Tao Mingzhuo. It is the brand of the box of expensive oil paints that Jing Ci brought back to Tao Mingzhuo when he was on a business trip in U country.


At that time, Tao Mingzhuo only dug up one of the breasts to paint Jing Ci's portrait, and the rest has not been touched yet. He secretly locked it deep in the small cabinet in Tao Xue's studio.


This paint store is a local niche brand in the U country. The paints are famous for being expensive and containing mineral powder. The store is also quietly opened in a small alley.


After entering the store, Tao Mingzhuo saw boxes of paints neatly placed on wooden shelves. The paints were well classified according to color and brightness. At a glance, he felt that he even had OCD. Very comfortable.


When Tao Mingzhuo was lost in thought, he heard Jing Ci next to him ask himself: "I wonder if you can do me a favor?"


He came back to his senses and nodded: "What's wrong?"


"There is something in my mind. I’ve always wanted to put a picture on canvas,”


Jing Ci said, “But the only painting I’ve ever completed since I was a child was when you helped me paint it in your sister’s nail salon. Done."


"You should know my painting skills better. I follow my father more. I may be more sensitive to numbers than colors and graphics." Jing Ci smiled and shook his head helplessly, "Water. There is only one color in my eyes, and I know nothing about painting. I may not be as good at painting as my mother.


“So I want to buy some paint and let you help me paint this painting.” Jing Ci said.


Tao Mingzhuo really didn't expect Jing Ci to make such a request.


Jing Ci's expression was very serious. Although Tao Mingzhuo felt that this request was a bit strange, he originally relied on painting for a living, so he nodded without hesitation: "Okay, but there is no need to buy such expensive paint. There are too many. Please give me a rough description of the scene you want to draw and the characteristics of the character you want to draw."


Jing Ci was quiet for a while.


"The scene... was in the company's employee cafeteria. That was the first time I saw him."


Jing Ci spoke after a moment. He did not look at Tao Mingzhuo, but raised his hand and slowly touched his fingertips. The body of the paint can slid past: "He didn't see me at that time, but I noticed him in the crowd at a glance."


"Human memory is limited," Jing Ci said, "But only about him Things seem to be covered in very vivid colors, and I can always remember them very clearly."


Tao Mingzhuo's figure suddenly stopped.


"Let me think about it... green," Jing Ci's fingertips stopped on a jar of green paint and said with a smile, "it's the color of the cucumber shreds in the bowl of noodles he ate at that time."


He raised his hand and gently placed his index finger on a can of orange paint: "The orange-red color is the color of the sweatshirt he wore that day."


"His eyes are black, but they are not that It's a lifeless black, but a kind of black with beautiful light."


Jing Ci said with some regret: "I can't describe it in words, so I probably can't completely restore it with paint."


Tao Ci . Mingzhuo's mouth opened slightly: "You..."


"Maybe there's no way to fully restore the person I'm talking about just by talking about colors." Jingci thought for a while, rolled his eyes at Tao Mingzhuo, and said, "In this way, let me tell you some things that happened between me and him. Maybe you can draw more easily."


"He always eats big mouths when he eats. He can eat everything. It was very fragrant, so at first, I just wanted to look at his face while eating, and subconsciously wanted to have more interactions with him,"


Jing Ci said, "But later, I discovered that he is a very special person."


"He loves to blush. At first I thought it was because the temperature in the room was too high, or he couldn't eat spicy food." He said, "But one time he and I were smoking by the bridge, and I suddenly had some exploratory thoughts. , deliberately put her face to his mouth to light the cigarette.


"I found that it was not because of the temperature or the flavor of the food, but because of me..." Jing Ci said.


He smiled and shook his head: "From that day on, when I find that his face turns very red because of my behavior, I always... feel a little indescribably happy." "He said something different


. He is obviously a very thin-skinned person, but he would tell others loudly that I was his boyfriend when he was helping me out in the bar. "Jing Ci said, "In the early spring when it was raining heavily and it was extremely cold, But he said he was too hot and didn't want to take his coat, so he put it on my shoulders.


"At that time, he told me that he had a sweetheart." Jing Ci gently touched the lid of the paint pot. After a moment, "I thought it was a little girl who often appeared with him. At first, I thought that I wouldn't care about their relationship."


"But then one time, I heard that they were going to another place together. After three days, I suddenly felt very uncomfortable."


Jing Ci's eyelashes trembled, and he said, "It was a very subtle mood. At that time, I thought I was just worried that I couldn't see him. I couldn't eat, but then I suddenly realized that my mood at the time was more like jealousy of the relationship between him and that girl.


"But liking this kind of relationship is inherently complicated," he said. Said, "Who can realize it immediately at the first time?"


"If it was for eating at the beginning, then later on, eating became a cover for me to spend more time with him." Jing Ci rolled his eyes and said, "But fortunately, we are together."


"Although he is a bit clumsy and a bit tough-tongued, he treats me wholeheartedly and always treats me happily. The best thing is in front of me." Jing Ci sighed with a smile and said, "You said he is such a good person, why do you think I won't like him, or have never liked him at all?


" I obviously like him very much," he said softly.


“I really like the way he gulps when he eats, and I also like how he feels sleepy after watching a movie but insists on saying that he likes it, but five minutes later he is so sleepy that he falls on my lap and breathes. He looked like he was sleeping."


Jing Ci thought for a while and said seriously: "I like the way he wraps his arms around my waist from behind, puts his head on my shoulder, and whispers in my ear. When he took the initiative to kiss me, his movements were reckless and clumsy, but he was carefully observing my reaction. "


This is like a long paragraph that Tao Mingzhuo said in one breath when he and Jing Ci confessed. Parallel sentences.


Jing Ci continued to imitate Tao Mingzhuo's tone at that time, smiled softly and spoke.


"I've always wanted to tell him that I actually like him very much."


Jing Ci lowered his eyes, held the jars of paint he had just picked out in his arms, and walked to Tao Mingzhuo.


He seemed calm, but the moment he raised his head and met Tao Mingzhuo's eyes, his hands trembled uncontrollably.


"I've almost finished talking." Jing Ci handed the paint to Tao Mingzhuo and asked with a smile, "I don't know about this painting... can you help me draw it?"


Tao Mingzhuo didn't speak for a long time . .


He looked like a dried sculpture. After a long time, he finally raised his hand and slowly took the jars of paint.


He remained silent, but turned around after a moment, picked out a few more cans of paint from the shelf, and walked straight to the cashier to pay.


Such a reaction was not expected by Jing Ci. Looking at Tao Mingzhuo's back, he suddenly felt a little unspeakable panic.


Jing Ci saw Tao Mingzhuo striding towards him.


Immediately afterwards, Jing Ci felt his wrist being pulled by him. Tao Mingzhuo's strength was very strong. Jing Ci did not expect it, and he staggered slightly.


He heard Tao Mingzhuo say to himself dullly: "Go back to the hotel."


It was late at night, and Jing Ci couldn't see Tao Mingzhuo's expression clearly.


Tao Mingzhuo just walked out of the shop with the paint in one hand and Jing Ci in the other, and walked quickly with his head down. He didn't speak for a long time, and he didn't open his mouth to explain anything.


After a while, he heard Tao Mingzhuo murmuring to himself: "The size is right this time... and I bought three different brands and put them all in the bag. There is absolutely no chance that there will be another problem." Yes."


Jing Ci blinked blankly.


Tao Mingzhuo continued to hold his hand and walked for a while. After a while, Jing Ci saw him turn his face.


The moment she met Tao Mingzhuo's eyes, Jing Ci discovered that his eyes were filled with blazing light, as bright as blooming fireworks.


Tao Mingzhuo quickly looked away and lowered his head.


After a while, Jing Ci heard Tao Mingzhuo call his name in a low voice.


He sniffed and said hoarsely: "Actually, it wasn't that unbearable, but you...how could you say such a thing to me?"


"It's all your fault." His voice sounded a little bit a bit unbearable. Feeling aggrieved, "I feel like even for one second now... I can't seem to wait any longer."
