Chapter 20
Chapter 20
After discovering that the creature in the man's arms was suspected to be a cat, the girls' sympathy flooded even more, because at first it was Lin Kuang who took the taxi, but now the taxi was full, so they turned their heads and looked at Lin Kuang inquiringly. Kuang: "Handsome guy, can we let him come up?"
Lin Kuang glanced at the narrow space inside the car, pursed his lips slightly, but still said, "Okay, master, please go over here."
As soon as the car door opened, the man thanked him and stepped into the car, only to find that it was a young man.He was only wearing a black shirt, which was soaked right now and stuck tightly to his body. The black cat in his arms was wrapped tightly in his coat, looking out with round blue eyes.
The girls were so adorable that they all asked, "What's wrong with it?" "You took it to the hospital?" "Why don't you take your mobile phone, it's hard to get a taxi this day." While speaking, he also tried to touch the top of the black cat's head.
Unexpectedly, the black cat gritted its teeth coldly and flashed its paws at them, causing them to withdraw their hands quickly in fright.The young man said indifferently: "It is afraid of life."
Because the seats in the car were already full, and the other two were girls, the young man could only squeeze a seat with Lin Kuang.Lin Kuang let the young man sit in the middle, while he lowered his head and played with his mobile phone, leaning as far as possible to the side of the car door, avoiding physical contact calmly.
Hearing the young man say this, Lin Kuang looked at him for the first time - he felt that the other's voice was inexplicably familiar.However, because the distance was too close and the car was dark, he couldn't see it too accurately, but he still felt familiar.
The other party noticed his gaze and raised his eyes to look at him, only then did Lin Kuang realize that his eyes were amber.But his eyes were very strange, obviously he didn't know Lin Kuang well.
Maybe I saw it somewhere.Lin Kuang didn't take it too seriously, he lowered his head and continued playing his game.He played a small stand-alone game of stepping on cubes. Small colored cubes swished down from the sky on different tracks. The more numbers he received accurately, the higher the score.
He played two rounds casually, and suddenly heard the young man say: "You have good hand speed."
Lin Kuang turned his head and glanced at him, and found that his body was leaning slightly to this side, and his gaze fell on the screen of his mobile phone.
Lin Kuang didn't speak.
The young man didn't seem to notice his vague resistance, and continued to say: "The reaction is also very fast. Can you play games?"
Lin Kuang stepped back again and said, "Isn't this a game?"
"I'm talking about online games, the kind of large-scale end games." The young man smiled slightly. "Tests of hand speed, awareness, and anticipation...the victory or defeat is only a matter of thought."
Lin Kuang turned off the mini-game, changed to Sudoku, and said with a dull face, "I can't play." His hairs stood on end when he was too close, and he added without raising his head, "Can you sit over there? A bit crowded."
The young man watched him fill in the Sudoku slowly, and seemed to find it very interesting. He actually moved to the side while laughing.But he moved, but his cat jumped out and landed on Lin Kuang's lap lightly and skillfully.
Lin Kuang was startled by it, and the phone slipped onto his lap. He reached out to grab it, but the cat mistook it for reaching out to tease it, and the soft pad patted the back of his hand.
"..." Lin Kuang was almost stiff now, not daring to breathe, staring at it.
"Cain didn't stretch out his claws." The young man said, "It likes you very much."
The black cat named "Cain" was lying on Lin Kuang's lap, and it looked really cute.
"...then take it away too," Lin Kuang said, "I'm afraid of cats."
"You're not afraid of cats," the young man looked at him and smiled, "You're afraid of people, aren't you?"
Lin Kuang looked at him silently for two seconds and said, "What does that have to do with you?"
The young man didn't seem to care about Lin Kuang's rejection at all, and his smile deepened. Just at this moment, Lin Kuang's cell phone "ticked", and someone sent him a WeChat message.
[Chu Xiao: Senior, are you done with your school work? ?I'll pick you up when it's raining]
Lin Kuang replied: [No, I'm already in the car. 】
[Chu Xiao:! ! ! 】
"Special notification tone?" Wechat rang twice in a row, and the young man also noticed it, turned his face and smiled and asked, "Girlfriend?"
Lin Kuang glanced at him impatiently. Before he could answer, Chu Xiao called directly: "Why didn't you wait for me?! Where are you? I'll pick you up!"
Lin Kuang said, "I'm almost at Xinhui Bridge, isn't it too troublesome for you to come here?"
"What's the trouble!" Little Tyrannosaurus rex called a step late, and he failed to show his boyfriend power. He was already quite frustrated. "I'll pick you up in Brother Yang's car. The base is so remote that many cars don't like to go. Besides, didn’t you bring an umbrella? It’s still a while from the car to the base, if I don’t go, you’ll definitely get watered…”
Chu Xiao blah blah blah blah, even the black cat was impatient, and was eager to pounce on Lin Kuang while grinding its front paws. Xiao suddenly became alert: "Lin Kuang, is there someone next to you?" Tyrannosaurus rex changed his career to breathe fire, and he didn't even call out to the senior, "Who? Tell you about Lin Kuang, as your captain and ex-husband, I have I am obliged to guard all suspicious people around you..."
"No one, then I'll trouble you to run."
"……what?"
"There's really no one." Lin Kuang glanced at the young man next to him, and repeated earnestly, "Captain, please come and pick me up."
Lin Kuang couldn't bear to recall how the little Tyrannosaurus rex took his "ex-wife" back that day. As for the young man holding the cat, he also regarded it as a strange passerby he met by chance and threw it into his memory. in the corner.
...And he was forced to take this "passer-by" out of the corner of his memory the next day when he was at the makeup photo session, which was completely unexpected to him.
The studio is used alternately by each team according to time. When Sanqiandi arrived, he happened to see a group of people coming out of it.
"...Is that Crow Kill? Who is the one in the middle?" Lin Kuang involuntarily stopped and looked at the tallest young man in the group.
"Qin Heng, their captain." Wen Shikai said, "He puts on a dead face every day, and he does things in a dark and terrible way. I get annoyed when I see him."
Yuan Hao's eyes flickered at the side, but Lin Kuang said "Huh?", obviously a little surprised by Qin Heng's "public impression".
While they were talking, Qin Heng had already walked towards him, and no one in the two teams was hiding, but Wen Shikai thought that Qin Heng would talk to Chu Xiao or himself, but unexpectedly he went straight to Lin Kuang——
"Isn't it 'know how to play'?" Qin Heng's amber eyes slightly curved, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Oolong Milk Gai."
At that time, Lin Kuang felt that this person was a little neurotic and didn't want to communicate with him more. At this time, he didn't feel guilty at all, and raised his head and said, "It's a normal game. Hello."
"Know?" When Chu Xiao came to pick up Lin Kuang, he only noticed that his peacock was opening its tail. The other people in the car and Lin Kuang said they met in a carpool, so he didn't even look at him. Roared, "When did you meet?"
Lin Kuang put his hands behind his back and gently tugged at the sleeves of his team uniform, but Qin Heng said, "I don't even know him." He took a mobile phone from someone else, and handed it to Lin Kuang gracefully, "So, can we really get to know each other? I also want to have the 'special tone' treatment."
Hearing the words "special prompt tone", Lin Kuang couldn't help raising his eyelashes, and subconsciously glanced at Chu Xiao, wondering if Qin Heng was threatening.
Chu Xiao was only focused on breathing fire, but didn't notice this. He brushed Qin Heng's hand away with a "slap", and said condescendingly: "Three Thousand Truths and Crow Killing are in a competitive relationship, I hope you remember. There is time to contact my team members , it’s better to come to me directly, let’s practice hard, don’t lose year after year.”
What he said was provocative, Qin Heng withdrew his hand and looked at him with a slight sneer.However, there was a man wearing a black hood next to Qin Heng, with his hands in the pocket of his sweater, and his voice sounded quite young: "Aren't you annoying, when can you leave?"
This young man's status in Yasha is obviously not low. After he finished speaking, Qin Heng didn't delay any longer: "Okay, let's go."
At first glance, Yasha’s team was much stronger than Sanqiandi. There were not only five players who signed up, but also team managers, manager assistants, etc. A group of people left in a mighty way. Wen Shikai rolled his eyes: "I just Call him annoying, even Ye Xueliu is much cuter than him."
"That's Ye Xueliu?"
"Yeah, he's also a weird guy. He's super chubby, and there's something like that... misogyny!" Wen Shikai said, "But he's not as sinister as Qin Heng, he's just a tiger, and he's the cutest when he's not sick.”
Lu Fan, who had been serving as the background board, suddenly interjected: "It's all okay."
"Ah? Everything is okay?" Wen Shikai was at a loss.
Lu Fan didn't speak this time, but looked at the back of Yasha and his group with a slightly subtle look on his face.
This time for the promotional photos, Hua Wuxie also came with the team of Three Thousand Truths, but since he entered the booth, he was out of his mind, his eyes wandered, and he was so absent-minded that even Wen Shikai could tell: "Are you awake? It's already afternoon."
Hua Wuxie didn't respond, but Lin Kuang answered the phone, then stood up and said, "I have something to do, so I won't be filming today."
The official photographer and other team members looked at him in surprise, not understanding how to stop shooting at this pass, Hua Wuxie's eyes flickered, and for the first time, he took the initiative to "care" about Lin Kuang: "If there is anything we can't wait for Is it? If you don’t take pictures today, the official will not rent a shed alone because of you, and you will not be included in the promotional photos of Three Thousand Truths.”
Lin Kuang just said: "I do have something to do, so let's go first."
Everyone else in the studio looked incomprehensible, but Chu Xiao, who was supposed to care about Lin Kuang the most, didn't say anything at this time, and pulled the photographer aside, talking in a low voice.
Hua Wuxie was so thoughtful, she lowered her head and pressed her fingers on the phone like flying, but she didn't notice this, but Lu Fan noticed it, and lightly elbowed Wen Shikai, motioning him to look at Chu Xiao.
"...the little lover still has a little secret." Wen Shikai laughed and cursed, and decided to ask about it later, and first took Lu Fan to make up and style.
In fact, Lin Kuang didn't go anywhere, and had a good night's sleep in the hotel suite arranged by the government.A suite can accommodate three people, one for Lin Kuang, Chu Xiao, and Shenyang, one for Wen Shikai, Lu Fan, and Yuan Hao.
So Lin Kuang was not worried about being "exposed". After waking up, he sat on the sofa in the living room and read the professional books he brought from school.
Chu Xiao didn't come back until evening. He took his room card and entered the door. Lin Kuang turned around and asked, "Finished?"
Chu Xiao saw the book spread out on his lap, and curled up on the sofa as if afraid of the cold.An orange floor lamp was turned on next to it, and the light melted, half of Lin Kuang's face was illuminated, and the other half was sunk in the dim twilight, making the skin at the junction as cold and beautiful as if it had been painted with a layer of enamel.
"...just finished filming." Shen Yang hadn't come back yet, the apartment was empty, Chu Xiao walked over, and casually took out the book in Lin Kuang's hand: "What are you looking at, I'll read it too..."
As soon as he saw the content, he got stuck: he and Lin Kuang had different majors, and Lin Kuang was in graduate school again. The professional book in his hand was no different from the heavenly book to Chu Xiao.Chu Xiao coughed, and stuffed the book back into Lin Kuang's hand as if nothing had happened: "You still read in such a dim light, aren't you afraid of hurting your eyes?"
"It's getting dark quickly, it wasn't that dark just now." Lin Kuang didn't intend to read any more, and threw the book on the coffee table, "Have you eaten yet? How is Hua Wuxie's?"
"Not yet, let's order dinner together later." Chu Xiao said, "Hua Wuxie can't bear it any longer. Brother Yang and I made preparations, and he cut off a lot of back roads, and he can't move... "
While listening to him, Lin Kuang bent down to pour himself a glass of water.He used to wear socks on the sofa, but now he didn't bother to wear slippers. The soft socks directly stepped on the floor, and the water trembled and fell into his transparent cup.
When putting the kettle back, Lin Kuang slipped slightly, but quickly took a small step back to maintain his balance. Chu Xiao lowered his head and noticed that his socks had stepped on his feet.
Lin Kuang's socks are very clean in color, and further up, there are thin and white ankle lines, which are submerged in his slightly loose trousers.
Chu Xiao found that when Lin Kuang was able to wear private clothes, he always wore them soft and loose. Today he wore a white hooded sweater with the sleeves turned back loosely, revealing a section of delicate and white wrists.His exposed parts are always so clean and beautiful, people can't help but think of those places under the clothes that can't be seen normally...
"Why don't you say it?" Lin Kuang took a couple of sips of water like a cat and put it down again. He looked at Chu Xiao from bottom to top, with a slight concern in his expression, "Have you encountered a problem? What can I do to help... ..."
"Senior, I regret it." Chu Xiao said suddenly.
Before Lin Kuang could fully react, he let out a soft "Huh?"
"I regret that I don't want to know anymore." Chu Xiao pressed his wrist, confining him between his body and the sofa, which was almost a forced posture, "What was the initial misunderstanding, can you tell me?"
In doing so, he was already prepared for the reaction of being struggled away, reprimanded, and blamed by Lin Kuang, but what he didn't expect was that Lin Kuang just fell silent for a moment, and whispered, "...don't be so nervous."
Chu Xiao's snort in his ear told him wordlessly that the consolation didn't help much.
"Really..." Lin Kuang said softly with a bit of annoyance, "Last time, I really didn't know how to organize my words. It wasn't some serious misunderstanding. I made a big mess. Only then can I make it clear..."
Chu Xiao's heart was beating wildly, and he leaned forward again: "It's okay, I..."
"Chu Xiao, Yuan Hao's contract has already been...uh..." Shen Yang held the document between his hands, and hurriedly opened the door with his room card while explaining the latest progress to Chu Xiao—Chu Xiao only came back one step earlier than him, and he should be here now In the living room——however, when he saw the specific scene in the living room clearly, he swallowed all his words in an instant, "You...uh, let me avoid...?"
"...No need." Looking down at Lin Kuang's trembling eyelashes, Chu Xiao let go of his hands helplessly, "Brother Yang, order the meal first, and talk about it during the meal."
"Senior," Chu Xiao lowered his head again and said, "The first offline match—if we win, you can tell me the answer?"
Lin Kuang looked at him and nodded, "Okay."
