"Can you give me the cat bell?"

When Chu Xia couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and was surfing the Internet on his mobile phone, he suddenly saw Young Master Yang Yao posting such a Weibo, he said that the stray cats in his community are very clingy, and they are more affectionate than the cats in all the cat cafes he has been to.

He also said that the reason why stray cats are particularly full of cat virtue is not because they are born so, but because they have had the experience of being abandoned by humans. This phenomenon is called the abandoned cat effect.

Chu Xia immediately entered these four words into a certain search engine, and found that the cat abandonment effect is explained in this way: the original meaning refers to that a discarded cat will behave particularly well after being picked up, because it is worried about being discarded again.The abandoned cat effect is extended to human feelings. It means that after a person is dumped, if there is a chance to get back together, he will try his best to behave like the other person likes it.

Chu Xia vaguely substitutes himself, he doesn't really know whether his feelings for Xie Chenwei have been affected by the so-called abandoned cat effect, but he is sure that he should be the weaker and humbler party in the relationship between the two.

They really are two people who are not compatible in any sense.

In fact, Xie Chenwei's mother didn't need to tell him this truth so bluntly, Chu Xia already understood it.Xie Chenwei is so good, it is a bit like the stars in the sky to him, which is where he can't touch even if he puts his toes hard.

Chu Xia tried hard to convince himself that even if he knew the final result, he still had to cheer up and live hard these days.Because looking at it from another perspective, the moment Chu Xia ended his career as a cat and became a human being, it was already another chance given to him by God.

From this perspective, every minute and every second he spent with Xie Chenwei was earned, and everything they experienced was worthy of being written and recorded.

As the calendar turned day by day, the time finally came to January 17th. Although Xie Chenwei himself didn't care much about his birthday, he didn't feel that turning 29 was something worth celebrating.But because this is the first birthday of his lover in his life, it seems inevitable that he has a little expectation.

Recently, Chu Xia is still very busy. Even though Xie Chenwei has stepped in to solve some of Chen Jinglin's recent difficult problems, Chu Xia still has some mysterious whereabouts.Asked sternly as before.

Xie Chenwei would always think of Chuxia crying sadly in his dream because of too much pressure. He didn't want to put pressure on the college entrance examination anymore.After all, Chu Xia is so fragile, Xie Chenwei doesn't want two people in one family to see a psychiatrist.So he almost tacitly allowed Chu Xia to have some innocuous little secrets.

This evening, Xie Chenwei deliberately went home at less than seven o'clock earlier than usual, but found that Chu Xia, who had already finished school, hadn't returned home yet.Aunt Hui was preparing a sumptuous dinner in the kitchen, and until the food was fragrant, Chu Xia still didn't come back.

Xie Chenwei looked at the dense clouds in the sky outside the window, it seemed that there was still a strong wind, and it looked like it was going to rain heavily.He still picked up his phone and couldn't help calling Chu Xia, but Chu Xia didn't know what he was busy with, so he didn't answer it.

When Xie Chenwei began to worry about whether Chu Xia had brought an umbrella when he went out today, and whether he would be caught in the rain, his cell phone rang suddenly, and it was Tao Qun calling.

Xie Chenwei's first reaction was whether there was something wrong with the company, and he answered the phone immediately.What Xie Chenwei didn't expect was that Tao Qun's phone call was about his private life.

Tao Qun asked straight to the point: "Mr. Xie, why did I see Chu Xia on today's hot search?"

Xie Chenwei asked suspiciously, "What?"

Tao Qun explained: "You will understand when you click on the trending topic of "Little Fans and Great Authors".Before Tao Qun hung up the phone, he did not forget to remind him tremblingly: "Mr. Xie, you have to keep calm.""

Xie Chenwei opened Weibo, clicked on this topic, and found the most popular and also the most popular post.The tone of this post should also be sent by Gongzi Yang Yao's fans.

"Since I met the author of my own life at the animation festival, I found that the master is not only good at writing, but also has a big brain, and he has a good looks that can't be hidden even through a mask."

"During the signing of the sale that day, many of us found out that he had a crush on a cute younger brother with a fairy face. The younger brother is a fan of us but has a different fate.There is a follow-up!"

"In the super talk of the Great God, people will update posts about him every day. I found that he was met by people in Rong Gang several times recently. Later, I found out that there were several secretly taken photos of him. There are people around him.That younger brother who lined up was with me that day."

"And recently, some sisters picked up the Weibo ID of a small fan, and the address is Ronggang. And the master recently moved from S City to Rong Gang inexplicably, and also established his personal studio in Ronggang!"

"Oh my god, this is too spoiled! As expected, a person who can write such a lingering pure love of literature, how can he be straight, he must have a boyish heart that is romantic to death!"

"Ahhh, the little fan readers finally caught up with their own idols. This story is so inspiring, and there is a sense of CP between them. It's so addicting to me!"

...

Seeing this all the time, Xie Chenwei still felt that all this might be because the fans were too bored to be obsessed with others, until he found the pictures organized by the fans, the first one was the photo of Chu Xia being hugged by Li Ze at the autograph meeting, Xie Chenwei has seen the scene where this photo took place, but what he didn't expect was that there would be a follow-up.

In the photos secretly taken by others, Xie Chenwei found that they had at least been to a cafe together, and went to the basketball court of an unknown school together... Although these photos are very blurry, sometimes only a side face of the person is shown, and sometimes they even wearAlthough he was wearing a mask, Xie Chenwei could still tell at a glance that the person next to Li Ze was Chu Xia.

Now that the evidence is so strong, it is completely impossible for Xie Chenwei not to be angry or suspicious. He feels that he trusts Chu Xia so much, but he pampers him on his own and deceives himself blatantly. Xie Chenwei wished he could smash the phone in his hand.

At this time, there was a sound of unlocking the door, and Chu Xia, who was drenched like a soaked chicken, came back with a huge cake in his hand.

Aunt Hui happened to come out of the kitchen with a plate of chicken soup that had just been stewed. Looking at Chu Xia who was drenched, she asked with distressed eyes, "Why don't you bring an umbrella? The winter in Rong Gang this year is too strange.It rained a few times."

"I brought it." Chu Xia looked at the beautifully packaged big cake on the table that hadn't been exposed to the rain at all, and smiled. Without saying anything, she went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Xie Chenwei looked at the familiar-looking cake on the table. It seemed that there was still some tacit understanding between the two of them.They all taste exactly the same, both lavender and chestnut.

Xie Chenwei thought that because today is the weekend, the queue in Chu Xia must be longer today, Xie Chenwei thought, even if he wanted to question Chuxia, he shouldn't ask in front of Aunt Hui.

Although it is true that everything seems ironclad, but in Xie Chenwei's subconscious mind, he still hopes that all this is a misunderstanding.He never even imagined this possibility, what should he do if Chu Xia really likes someone else one day.

After finishing all the dishes given by Chu Xia, Aunt Hui insisted on leaving room for the two of them and left early.Finally, there were only two people left. Xie Chenwei originally wanted to speak, but Chu Xia smiled and asked him to wait, and then went straight into the kitchen.

Chu Xia has been busy with his studies recently, and has not cooked for a long time. Xie Chenwei even misses his dark cooking occasionally.Looking at Chu Xia's serious and busy back in the kitchen, Xie Chenwei felt a sense of happiness that he had not seen for a long time. At that moment, he even thought that it would be great if Tao Qun hadn't made that phone call today.

Xie Chenwei couldn't help but think, even if he found out later, at least Chu Xia was serious about celebrating his birthday, at least his twenty-ninth birthday would be happier than he is now.

After an unknown amount of time, when Chu Xia finally brought out a bowl of longevity noodles, there was flour on the tip of his nose and on his cheeks, and he looked like a dirty little cat, but the noodles in his hand looked likeThe presentation is very good.

A whole long noodle in the bowl is of moderate length and looks ripe in color. Several slices of beef, several peeled prawns, several rapeseed hearts, several slices of tomato, and aThe fried eggs are golden in color and the heat is just right, and the color is very bright.

Xie Chenwei tried to take a bite, and was surprised to find that the taste was also very good. Chu Xia finally made a bowl of noodles that was perfect in every way.

Looking at Chu Xia's eagerly looking forward to his comment, Xie Chenwei couldn't say enough words to praise him, but he didn't want him to be hurt either.After he put down his chopsticks, he only said briefly: "Yes."

Chu Xia seemed a little disappointed, he said "oh", then quickly recovered his mood, opened the cake box, and helped him insert birthday candles.

After Chu Xia symbolically inserted the birthday candles, he tried to put the birthday hat that came with the cake on Xie Chenwei's head, but Xie Chenwei immediately refused with a straight face.

At this time, Chu Xia seemed to have sensed Xie Chenwei's displeasure. He withdrew his hand holding the hat in embarrassment, then rubbed his jeans as if he didn't know where to put his hand.

Even so, Chu Xia still plucked up the courage to sing the happy birthday song with a smile, and then asked Xie Chenwei to close his eyes and make a wish.However, Xie Chenwei looked at the somewhat eye-catching number "29" on the cake, and remembered that Chu Xia is only 19 years old now, and the ten-year age difference made him feel unspeakably uncomfortable.

Xie Chenwei looked at Chu Xia in front of him. He still couldn't connect him who celebrated his birthday with that "little fan who secretly dated and fell in love with the master".It is difficult to describe my contradiction, astonishment and anxiety in words.

Xie Chenwei suddenly asked: "Can I say my birthday wish?"

Seeing Chu Xia's blank eyes, he asked, "What?"

Xie Chenwei said to himself: "I only have one birthday wish, and that is that I never hear anyone lying to me."

Chu Xia's eyes widened, he looked at Xie Chenwei, as if he understood something in an instant.But he didn't have the courage to look at Xie Chenwei for too long, and he was soon defeated and lowered his head.

From Xie Chenwei's point of view, this series of changes in demeanor was not due to guilt and guilt.

When she raised her head again, Chu Xia's eye sockets were already flushed, as if she had been wronged.However, in Xie Chenwei's view, all of this is nothing more than hypocrisy and affectation, a means to pretend to be pitiful and to cover up his guilty conscience.

But for some reason, Xie Chenwei was still unable to open his mouth to question him. He seemed to want to give Chu Xia a chance to confess, because even if he committed a serious criminal crime, the suspect would have his sentence reduced if he surrendered himself. Xie Chenwei wanted to do it with him.Can.

Because of his preoccupation, Xie Chenwei didn't eat anything tonight, including the longevity noodles made by Chu Xia himself. He only drank a few sips of soup, and almost didn't eat any cake.

Because Aunt Hui was away, Chu Xia cleaned up the mess in the kitchen by herself, and it took nearly an hour and a half to restore everything to its original state.

Xie Chenwei sat on the sofa and stared at the computer in a daze. He didn't have any thoughts on working. Even if someone told him that the company's listing plan was directly cancelled, he didn't want to worry about it.

After Chu Xia cleaned up, he ran over to pour water for him once, washed some strawberries and cherries for him, put them in crystal glass bowls, and placed them on the coffee table in front of him.

Xie Chenwei noticed that he wanted to sit down several times, but he seemed to be afraid of something and didn't dare to approach.Xie Chenwei couldn't help but think, Chu Xia looks like a little animal that has made a mistake.

After so many times, Xie Chenwei finally couldn't help asking: "What do you want to say?"

At this time, Chu Xia was sitting on the edge of the sofa a little uneasy, as if he was afraid of disturbing Xie Chenwei's work, he asked in a very low voice but very politely: "Mr. Xie, can I ask you for something?"

"What?" When Xie Chenwei asked him back, he couldn't help but wonder if Chu Xia would use the same voice to speak to the author whose real name is Li Ze, and then make him obsessed with his innocent and harmless appearance like himself,Then be bewitched.

Chu Xia blinked very slowly, Xie Chenwei could even see the shadow left by his long eyelashes under the light.Then, as if he finally mustered up his courage, he asked, "Can you give me that cat bell?"

Seeing Xie Chenwei sizing him up with an unbelievable gaze, Chu Xia immediately lowered her head in shame, not daring to look at him again.

"Shi Chu Xia, is there something wrong with you?" Xie Chenwei had difficulty controlling the sarcasm in his tone, and he continued, "If I remember correctly, today is my birthday, right? Is there only one birthday present for you?"Cheap cake? Why do you want me to give you my pet's relic for your birthday?"

Xie Chenwei's face flushed instantly when he saw Chu Xia, he pressed his lips tightly, and looked at him with that aggrieved look. After an unknown amount of time, Chu Xia spoke slowly and said, "Your giftI'm ready, and I'll deliver it later."

Xie Chenwei asked again: "Didn't you prepare for a long time? That's it?" Xie Chenwei felt that Chu Xia was the kind of student who seemed to work hard in school. He was liked by the teacher because of his hard work on weekdays, but once the exam revealed his secrets, he had toTake the make-up exam to pass.

Some people put in a lot of hard work and don't have a good result.However, in many cases, if there is no good result, it means that you are not working hard and hard enough.

Sure enough, Xie Chenwei's words were very effective. When Chu Xia looked up again, tears were already falling from his eyes.But he quickly wiped away his tears with his hands, and then sincerely said sorry to Xie Chenwei.
