    Chapter 54

    Xia Xiqing vaguely felt that Zhou Ziheng knew something.

    How did he know, did Xu Qichen tell him? But they didn't look so familiar.

    My mind was very messy, and thoughts came out one after another. He didn't want to think about these irrelevant details. Zhou Ziheng's embrace has a wonderful healing power, which can quickly heal the crack in his emotions, even Xia Xiqing himself does not know the reason.

    He moved his hand hanging by his side, hugging Zhou Ziheng back slowly, his cold palm pressed against his broad back and his slightly raised shoulder blades, drawing heat from it.

    Zhou Ziheng did not expect that Xia Xiqing would hug him back at this moment, and his heart sank a little, as if a little man was quietly sitting on it. He could feel Xia Xiqing's fingers lightly grasping the edge of his shoulder blade, and put his forehead on his shoulder as if admitting defeat.

    Is this a kind of trust?

    Unable to help, he slowly rubbed the back of his neck along the line of his spine with his hands.

    "Are you grooming the cat?" Xia Xiqing's muffled voice came from his shoulder.

    Zhou Ziheng laughed, "You mean, are you my cat?"

    Xia Xiqing was stunned by what he said, and his anger rose again after he had just left. He let go of his hands and raised his head, and the moment he put his palms on Zhou Ziheng's chest, he was caught, and his fingers were firmly clasped.

    "You pushed me away too many times." Zhou Ziheng looked into his eyes, "I have to be ready to be pushed away by you anytime, anywhere."

    But I know you don't really need me, so even stopping you from pushing away has become a conditioned reflex.

    Hearing what he said, Xia Xiqing's ears warmed, and he didn't look at him, nor did he try to break free from the hand he was holding. Suddenly, he felt a warm touch on his forehead, which was unbelievably soft.

    When he reacted, he raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes were kissed lightly again, and the moment his lips touched his eyelashes, Xia Xiqing closed his eyes subconsciously because of the discomfort. He felt Zhou Ziheng's hands hold his face, his fingertips pressed against the soft depression behind his ears, and his kiss fell on the tip of his nose.

    Xia Xiqing was flustered and sad.

    He suddenly felt that he was actually very miserable. He had never been treated gently since he was a child, so he firmly believed that these things should not be owned by him.

    So much so that when get a little bit, feel really panicked.

    Her nose was sore, and it was too embarrassing to cry now. Xia Xiqing tried her best to restrain herself, frowning and opening her eyes. Zhou Ziheng pressed his forehead against his, the tip of his nose rubbed against the tip of his nose, and his gentle voice seemed to be covered with a layer of sea fog.

    "I know you don't think you and I are the same people, idealistic and full of goodwill." He whispered, his fingers gently rubbing against Xia Xiqing's jawbone, "But I want to make it clear that I don't have that much desire for protection. "

    "Really... don't you?" For some reason, Xia Xiqing's rhetorical question seemed weak.

    "Well... occasionally there are. For example, when I see a stray cat huddled in a ball on the side of the road, I really want to pick it up and take it home."

    Xia Xiqing let out a cold snort from his nose, "If you say pick it up, I'll let you pick it up? You scratched your hands full of blood."

    "It's okay, it's a necessary price." Zhou Ziheng's lips curled into a gentle arc, and he gently patted Xia Xiqing's forehead with his forehead, and continued to say what he said before, "For example, seeing a beautiful rose. Trapped in the thorns, I also have a desire to protect and want to rescue him."

    "Is it a good thing for Rose to leave the thorns?" Xia Xiqing raised his eyes and looked at him, his eyes were covered with water vapor, tears that had not been digested just now.

    "It was because he wanted to leave that I went to save him."

    "how do you know?"

    "Of course I know." Zhou Ziheng's smiling eyes were the most childish manifestation of him.

    Zhou Ziheng's logic is always strange, but always persuasive. Xia Xiqing was displeased by what he said, and asked again, "What about another example?"

    "It's no better. As a science male, my poor metaphorical ability ends here." Zhou Ziheng tilted his head and pecked the tiny mole on the tip of Xia Xiqing's nose.

    His eyes were bright, and he seemed to think that his smile was too childish, but he deliberately restrained it a little, and seemed more solemn and sincere.

    "Some and only Xia Xiqing can make me want to protect me."

    Such a light sentence was too light for Xia Xiqing to grasp. But it suddenly became so heavy again, smashing into the heart so hard that it couldn't get out, and it sank deep into it.

    The stray cat is afraid of humans, and the rose is afraid of the hand that comes close.

    Xia Xiqing is afraid and gentle.

    Because gentleness is the only invincible weapon in the world.

    "Can I kiss you, now."

    With such a sincere question again, Xia Xiqing felt that he was still defeated. He even smiled wryly, "So you still want to kiss?"

    "Well." Zhou Ziheng shook his head quickly again, "No, it's not what you think, I just want to..."

    A voice suddenly came from the door of the bathroom. Before Zhou Ziheng could stop his explanation abruptly, Xia Xiqing sealed his flustered heart with a kiss.

    "The public toilets in this hotel are in good condition."

    Stranger's voice.

    "Why do you care so much about the hotel's bathroom?" The man's bad taste in going to the bathroom is to open a yellow accent, "Why, do you like to play so exciting?"

    Xia Xiqing clenched the hand with the interlocking fingers even tighter, his chest pressed against his chest, a kind of tug of strength. But his eyes were soft and full of bright tenderness.

    With such a pair of eyes with strong hints, Zhou Ziheng couldn't help but think that Xia Xiqing was really full of love like those deceived people in the past. Although he knew it wasn't true.

    "What's the restroom of a hotel? Nightclubs are more exciting. Last time I went to the toilet after drinking too much. The voice next door was so loud that I went there. It was a live broadcast, and it made a wave."

    Perhaps because of hearing their conversation, Xia Xiqing's other hand began to move restlessly, from the hem of Zhou Ziheng's black shirt to the texture of his skin. The kiss that was supposed to be an understatement also became sticky, and the lips moved away and pressed together again, making a bold test at the critical point of making a kissing sound.

    "Hahaha, it's exciting, I'll try it next time."

    Zhou Ziheng's frowning brows indicated that he was obviously in love, Xia Xiqing loosened his lips nostalgically, stared into his eyes, and raised his eyebrows silently imitating his mouth shape.

    [Try? ]

    "Try? Who are you trying with?"

    Being provoked like this was already a thousand miles away from Zhou Ziheng's original intention. He hugged Xia Xiqing angrily, wrapped his arms around his waist, and rubbed the waistband of his overalls with his shirt and chest rolled up to his forearms. The kiss came too hard and too hastily. Xia Xiqing managed to stabilize his legs, but his upper body was so bullied by him that he bent backwards and was about to lose his balance.

    "Oh, just soak one and bring it in. The little girl nowadays is very good at fishing..."

    Halfway through speaking, a loud bang suddenly came from the bathroom stall, and the two of them turned their heads in fright, and the sound disappeared.

    Xia Xiqing also broke out in a cold sweat, and the hand that tried to hold the partition just now but failed to control the strength was still stuck there.

    "Damn it, it scared me to death."

    "Something has fallen. You still want to pick up a girl with your guts. Let's pick you up..."

    After the sparring ended, Zhou Ziheng bit Xia Xiqing's lower lip, who was still unfinished. He pulled it and released it again, imitating his lip-synching.

    [Let's take a dip. ]

    Another bang. The two of them didn't say any more, and slipped away without pulling the zipper of their pants.

    "Damn it, damn it, damn it."

    Hearing the sound getting farther and farther, Xia Xiqing, who had finished hammering the clapboard, was overwhelmed with joy. He lay beside Zhou Ziheng's ear and laughed, the more he laughed, the more vigorous he became.

    "You scared them so much that they didn't dare to have sex in the bathroom." Zhou Ziheng lowered his voice.

    Xia Xiqing, who was lying on Zhou Ziheng's shoulder, turned his face to the side, and blew a warm breath in Zhou Ziheng's ear, "Speak as if you dare, big star."

    "Is it any good for you to stimulate me?"

    "Yes." Xia Xiqing stretched out his hand, carefully arranged Zhou Ziheng's messed up shirt, tucked the hem into his trousers, and then tugged at his belt buckle, "I'll come on you when you can't help it. "

    Zhou Ziheng smiled helplessly, "Why didn't I wait for me to stop and fuck you?"

    Xia Xiqing pouted, but there was nothing wrong with what he said, "No, I'll go to you."

    "When can you give up this idea?" Zhou Ziheng looked at his persistence and thought it was cute and funny.

    "One must have a dream." Xia Xiqing was serious, "My dream this year is to complete the important mission of helping you start a business."

    "Then don't cry when you're disillusioned."

    "I will cry with joy when I realize it."

    "You'd better be." Zhou Ziheng lowered his head and kissed his cheek. Xia Xiqing deliberately put on an expression of disgust, raised his hand and wiped his face. When he lowered his head, he remembered the injury on Zhou Ziheng's arm. He grabbed his wrist and found that the red marks on his arm had not subsided. Will bruise.

    "It doesn't hurt." Zhou Ziheng opened his mouth first.

    Xia Xi gave him a innocent look, "Who cares if you hurt or not." After speaking, he let go of his wrist, "You deserve it, rush up on your own."

    "Yes, deserve it."

    "You learn less from me."

    "I didn't learn from you, I really think I deserved it." Zhou Ziheng hugged Xia Xiqing like a large dog, then let go, grabbed his shoulders and stood away, smiling, "You look good today."

    Xia Xiqing has accepted almost all kinds of compliments on his appearance since he was a child, but there are not many people who speak as honest and sincere as Zhou Ziheng.

    He suddenly felt a sense of comparison, although he seemed to be a little cautious.

    "Do I look good or that Zi Xi looks good?" Xia Xiqing raised his face and rubbed Zhou Ziheng's ear with his hand.

    Zhou Ziheng immediately frowned in confusion, "Why do you want to compare yourself with him?" He just didn't understand, but was misunderstood by Xia Xiqing, his ear was tugged hard, "Wait... I mean he Can't be considered good-looking, isn't there a lot of that kind of looks in this circle?"

    Xia Xiqing wanted to pretend to be cool, but the corners of his mouth had his own thoughts.

    "Oh? Then am I not that much?"

    Zhou Ziheng frowned and thought deeply, raised his hand to squeeze Xia Xiqing's chin, turned his face to the left, turned to the right, then straightened, and once again said that cold and pleasant rhetoric.

    "There is one and only one."

    My heart trembled. Xia Xiqing lowered his head and licked his dry lips, and uttered three words awkwardly, "Men of science."

    "It's a pity that my hands, which can only draw force diagrams, can't draw, otherwise I'd like to draw you every day."

    Saying anything more, Xia Xiqing's heart will jump out. He raised his hand and covered Zhou Ziheng's mouth, "Shut up, get out, suffocate me."

    Bored to his heart's content.

    Zhou Ziheng smiled and kissed his palm.

    This person... Xia Xiqing withdrew his hand. Thinking of the description of Zhou Ziheng by fans in the fan circle, Fangxin arsonist, Fangxin sniper, these clichés that he once despised.

    Is it quite suitable?

    Bah. He didn't have any affection.

    In order to avoid suspicion, the two came out of the bathroom one after the other. Kun Cheng and the producer were still discussing in the room. Zhou Ziheng walked in first, and the assistant director shouted, "Brother Kun, Ziheng is back."

    "Where did you go? It's been so long." Kuncheng asked casually. Zhou Ziheng took the seat beside him, "Answered a call."

    "Are you alright just now?" Kun Cheng glanced at his arm, and Zhou Ziheng touched it uncomfortably, "It's alright, just two days."

    Kun Cheng laughed, "What were you thinking at the time, you couldn't see that someone was acting." Zhou Ziheng knew that he was joking, so he touched his hair and didn't answer.

    "But when you just stepped up to block, it looked a lot like Gao Kun." Kun Cheng shook his head, "It's Gao Kun."

    "Xu Zixi's acting is also good, with good skills and aura," Kuncheng sighed, "but compared with Xia Xiqing, the performance traces are immediately exposed." After he finished speaking, he glanced at Zhou Ziheng, "You too I want to go with Xia Xiqing."

    Zhou Ziheng felt that he saw something, and said nonsense, "That must be a good match for the acting."

    "Come on." Kun Cheng patted him on the shoulder, "You go back first, we'll discuss it again, it's settled in two days, by the way, have you seen Xia Xiqing?"

    "I think I saw him at the door of the bathroom." Zhou Ziheng said nonsense calmly, just at this moment Xia Xiqing walked in, "He's here."

    There are reporters downstairs. Originally, Zhou Ziheng wanted to go with him. Later, when he thought that it would not be good to be photographed together, he asked Xiao Luo to drive him back first. Zhou Ziheng pushed a lot of activities for this drama. , but this side is still undecided and can't be turned on, and I have suddenly been idle a lot in the past two days.

    "Ziheng, you are on the hot search again today."

    Zhou Ziheng got into the car, took off his mask and sunglasses, "The company bought it?"

    "No." Ronaldinho didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "The trailer for the third episode of Escape from the World came out, and it was on the hot list all of a sudden."

    Hearing him say this, Zhou Ziheng just remembered that the director of the program group on WeChat had indeed asked him to help him promote it on Weibo, and he forgot when he was busy. He went to Weibo to refresh the homepage, and sure enough, he saw the preview. It was posted at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and now the number of retweets has exceeded 40,000. He clicked on the video and watched it.

    The preview begins with a close-up of a radio, followed by a burst of noise, followed by vocals.

    It's Xia Xiqing's voice, with a slow rhythm and soft timbre.

    [The moment I met you was the beginning of the big bang. Every particle left me and ran towards you. After that smallest moment, the universe was really born. ]

    Suddenly, the image of a nebula exploding appeared on the screen, splitting into several identical nebulae, which merged into one in the vibration, gradually reduced, and gradually turned into an illustration on a book, a seamless montage technique.

    Soon, the voices of several people appeared one after another.

    First, Shang Sirui asked, "If both of us are 'girlfriends', shouldn't it be the same chain of events? ]

    Xia Xiqing's voice appeared in the noise, [What if you are girlfriends from different time and space? ]

    Before the voice completely disappeared, Zhou Ziheng's question appeared again, "Why is there a record of the heroine's death in your diary? Since you traveled back, the heroine should be able to be saved, right?]

    Shang Sirui's voice appeared again, emotionally, [In my plot line, I am the one who wants to save people. It's the female lead who saves the male lead who shut himself at home and turned on the gas to commit suicide, do you understand? ]

    The only girl's voice interspersed, affirming and resolute, [Xia Xiqing is the initiator of the tragedy, without him there would be no follow-up. ]

    Finally, Xia Xiqing said with a smile.

    [Believe it or not, I'll kill you now? ]

    The picture instantly turned completely black, and the music, which was getting faster and faster, also turned into a noise.

    Zhou Ziheng couldn't help laughing because the editing of the program team was excellent. Such a preview immediately drew everyone's attention to Xia Xiqing.

    His own voice came through the earphones.

    [She thinks you are Killer. ]

    [Why should I trust you? ]

    In the darkness, a butterfly emitting a blue light appeared, waving its small wings, and the blue shimmer gradually lit up the surrounding scenery. The background of a boy wearing dark blue clothes began to appear in the picture. The special effect butterfly was still flapping its wings until it merged with the butterfly bookmark in his hand.

    [Xi Qing? ]

    Xia Xiqing turned around.

    The picture was suddenly divided into two halves. He and Xia Xiqing occupy the left and right sides of the picture respectively. Although they were not in the same room, they were edited so that they could look at each other.

    [If you are willing to gamble your life on my sincerity, I don't care. ]

    The screen was divided again, and four vertical frames appeared. The faces of the four of them flashed in turn, and finally returned to complete blackness. There was an uneasy breathing sound in the darkness, and Zhou Ziheng's heart twitched. This is Xia Xiqing's breathing sound.

    The door to the room suddenly opened, and a beam of light appeared on the screen.

    A person walked out slowly.

    Ruan Xiao's voice appeared.

    [Has the male lead ever been out? ]

    A figure gradually appeared in the darkness, it was Xia Xiqing's pale face.

    This is accompanied by Shang Sirui's voice, [If I leave the room, the door of the room will be closed, and I can no longer enter. ]

    A smile appeared on Xia Xiqing's face.

    [I'm ready to go out. ]

    Like turning off the TV, the picture shrank into an electronic line, and finally turned completely black. With the sound of the sound effect, the four characters "Escape from Heaven" appeared, and a butterfly flew over, leaving a blue subtitle———— The Butterfly Effect.

    Originally thought the trailer was over like this, but I didn't expect there would be Easter eggs.

    In the four mullions, Shang Sirui first appeared. He squatted in front of the radio and turned the knobs one by one. From left to right, right to left, Ruan Xiao's voice suddenly appeared on the radio, "Hello?" Shang Sirui She was so frightened that she sat on the ground, and the black mullion next to her showed the situation of Ruan Xiao's room, and her expression was a little puzzled. Then the two mullions turned black at the same time, and the remaining two frames lighted up. Xia Xiqing stood in front of the door and stretched out his fingers. Zhou Ziheng, who was in the frame next to him, also stretched out a hand.

    Except for the white dividing line, the two are almost as if they are facing each other with their fingers touching each other.

    [Don't you think you're too partial? ]

    [I was originally partial. ]

    The video ends.

    Zhou Ziheng is really amazed, the program team can actually cut the preview of a brain-burning suspense program like a love movie. 's plot.

    "Have you read it?" Ronaldinho, who was waiting for the green light, laughed, "Do you know what your hot search terms are?"

    "what?"

    "See for yourself haha."

    Inexplicably, Zhou Ziheng clicked on the hot search list, and the first two were his related words.

    [Love Talk Boy Zhou Ziheng]

    [Gentle Alpha Zhou Ziheng]

    Poof.

    He took a screenshot and sent it on WeChat.

    [Morality Pacer: If you were given a choice, which one would you choose?]

    When he and Xu Qichen came out of the elevator together, the phone vibrated. Xia Xiqing continued Xu Qichen's words and looked down at the phone, and laughed without restraint.

    He didn't know what was going on, but now he could imagine Zhou Ziheng's smug expression on his face.

    "What are you laughing at?"

    "It's nothing." Xia Xiqing typed a few words quickly and clicked send.

    It was not until he got off the bus that Zhou Ziheng, who was expecting an answer, received a reply from Xia Xiqing.

    [Terrorist: Kids make choices, adults make love. ]

    The author has something to say:

    Xia Xiqing: It's all mine, why should I choose, I just want to go to... [My mouth is covered

    Zhou Ziheng: No, you don't want to.
