Xie Yao woke up the next morning, had no dreams all night, and slept very peacefully.

When he woke up, he found himself imprisoned in a warm embrace. He turned around with difficulty, looked at the sleeping person who was hugging him, and followed the angular face of the other person carefully.

As if he was out of control, he couldn't help stretching out his fingers to touch the other's tall nose bridge, and he was filled with emotions for a while.

The first rebirth made Xie Yao's original pure feelings mixed with too many complicated emotions. Even though he warned himself countless times in his heart, he always wavered every time he saw Zhou Qiming.

The sleeping man seemed to be awakened by a slight commotion, he opened his hazy eyes slightly, and there was alertness and danger in the eyes of waking up.

Guiltyly, Xie Yao withdrew his restless fingers, quickly pulled them out of the other's arms, got off the bed and fled into the bathroom barefoot.

When he came out again, the person on the bed was fully awake, the other party glanced at him, got out of bed silently, put on his shoes, and then went into the bathroom.

It seems that nothing happened last night, and the state of getting along between the two has returned to normal.

Lin Song rushed to the hotel after the two of them had breakfast. He arrived in a hurry, and as soon as he arrived, he worriedly talked about the itinerary for the past few days to Zhou Qiming.

Zhou Qiming still has some other work left, and the New Year is just around the corner, so his schedule has always been rushed.

Lin Song booked the plane ticket at 2:00 p.m., and at Chen Yi's request, he had to take Xie Yao back with him.

While riding in the car, Xie Yao stopped the person who was about to sit in the co-pilot and said that he would exchange seats with him.Lin Song looked at Zhou Qiming for help in embarrassment, seeing that his own artists had no intention of objecting, so he let Xie Yao sit in front.

It was silent all the way.

They arrived at their destination in the evening, and because Zhou Qiming had other jobs, the two separated directly at the airport.Lin Song wanted to arrange a car for Xie Yao to take him back, but Xie Yao didn't answer, and disappeared into the crowd with his backpack on his back.

Xie Yao behaved very alienated throughout the day, Lin Song's tongue was stunned by the gesture of disregarding the relationship.He couldn't help gossiping, and asked in front of his artist, "Did you quarrel with Young Master Xie?"

Zhou Qiming glanced at him indifferently, and was too lazy to answer his question. He glanced at the direction Xie Yao was leaving, and didn't want to speak in boredom.After a while, followed the assistant to the arranged car. He still had work at night.

Zhou Qiming's hometown is in Linjiang City. No matter how busy he is every year, he always wants to go back for the New Year.

Both Zhuang Yu and him are from Linjiang City, they are neighbors next door, they grew up together, so every year before that they would send messages asking Zhou Qiming if they want to go back together.

Zhou Qiming was sitting in the car when he received the message from the other party.He looked out the window at the gloomy sky, guessing that it was going to rain. At this moment, his mobile phone's notification tone suddenly sounded. Zhou Qiming quickly turned on the phone, glanced and found that the person who sent the message was Zhuang Yu, and fell silent again.

It had been more than half an hour since he and Xie Yao separated, and he didn't know if he was home or not, and he didn't even send a message to report his safety.Zhou Qiming slandered in his heart, looked at the message from Zhuang Yu on the screen, and replied after a while.

Z: No, you can book your own tickets, and have a good trip.

After he sent the message, Zhuang Yu replied quickly. He first sent an ok expression, and then asked him what was wrong.

After Zhou Qiming saw the message, he turned off his phone and ignored the other party's question.

Xie Yao and Zhou Qiming went back home directly after parting, and he stayed at home alone for a few days, and did not return to the old house until New Year's Eve.

During this period of time, he was used to living comfortably at home alone, and almost forgot the time.His brother Xie Ze was very worried, worried that he would regret his answer after returning home, so he called several times to urge him, and finally urged him back home on New Year's Eve.

Xie Yao woke up early on New Year's Eve, he was fully dressed and even wore a scarf.Before returning to the old house, he first drove to the shopping mall by himself, and was going to buy some gifts for his parents to take back, although he knew that his parents didn't lack anything.

Since Xie Yao was with Zhou Qiming, he hasn't gone back to celebrate the New Year with his family in the past few years. Every time he waits to accompany Zhou Qiming back from his hometown before rushing back.Although his parents have always pampered him, they always have some complaints in their hearts.

In the afternoon, as soon as he entered the door, the aunt at home greeted him with a joyful smile on his face and said that he was expected to come back.

"Sister-in-law Zhang, happy New Year's Eve." Xie Yao held the newly bought gift in his hand, and smiled back at his aunt. He looked around and found no one, and asked again, "Where is my mother?"

Mrs. Zhang called him to sit down and poured him a cup of hot milk.She stayed in Xie's house for a long time, and she watched the two brothers grow up, and was very close to Xie Yao.

"Madam seems to have gone to the back garden, why don't you go and have a look?" She handed hot milk to Xie Yao and said.

"Thank you Mrs. Zhang, then I'll go and have a look." Xie Yao was embarrassed to disappoint his aunt's kindness, and slowly drank the whole glass of milk before putting down and going to find someone.

As soon as he got up, Xu Meiling wrapped her coat and entered the room. Today she specially wore a well-crafted cheongsam, with her hair tied up and light makeup on, she looked very charming.

"Mom." Xie Yao walked up to Xu Meiling and shouted obediently.Seeing that her son had returned, the originally calm woman couldn't help a smile from the corner of her mouth, but suppressed it forcefully.

"You still know how to come back." She let out a rage, and let Xie Yao walk up to her and hold his arm coquettishly.

"It's a big festival, don't be angry with me," Xie Yao knew he was in the wrong, and moved to Xu Meiling's side and coaxed him, "Besides, you are so beautifully dressed today, wouldn't it be a pity that I couldn't see you?"

In fact, she was already very happy when she came back, so she didn't care about venting her anger with her son.Seeing his mother's attitude softened, Xie Yao hurriedly showed her the newly bought jewelry, his mouth was too sweet.

Xu Meiling has never been short of these jewelry, but since her son bought it, how could she not like it.She glanced at the jade bracelet in the box, then looked up at her son, and suddenly felt distressed.

"I've lost weight." Xu Meiling said while holding his hand, her eyes were filled with worry.

"There's no such thing as being thin, I have a good meal." Xie Yao continued to coax, afraid that his mother would cry with him while talking, and then he would not be able to coax him well.

Before the mother and son had time to exchange a few words, someone came down from upstairs.Xie Yao looked up at his father, and his brother followed behind.Xie Yao was nervous for a moment, and stood up immediately, like a student about to be lectured.

Xie Mingzhi went downstairs, and first took a look at his youngest son. Although he still had a straight face, he didn't speak harshly: "Just come back, let's get ready for dinner."

Xie Yao nodded obediently. He thought he would be scolded, but his father didn't say a word.

When eating the New Year's Eve dinner in the evening, the family enjoyed themselves happily.After dinner, Xie Yao accompanied Xu Meiling to watch the Spring Festival Gala, but Xu Meiling became sleepy before ten o'clock, and said she wanted to go upstairs to sleep, Xie Mingzhi followed behind, and the couple went to bed early.

The aunt at home also went back to her room after cleaning. She is from the city and plans to go home early tomorrow morning.

For a moment, only Xie Yao and his brother were left in the huge living room.Once the elders left, the young people naturally relaxed a lot.As soon as Xie Yao waited for his parents to go upstairs, he slumped on the sofa and watched TV, without any image at all.

"Sit or not." Xie Ze put the washed cherries in front of the coffee table, sat beside him, and asked, "Why do you want to go home for the New Year this year?"

"It's not normal to go home for the New Year." Xie Yao stared intently at the performance in front of the screen, not wanting his brother to delve into it. "Brother, look at this sketch, it's quite interesting."

"Thank you Yao."

"Brother." Xie Yao heard that something was wrong with his brother's tone, and immediately turned his head, and added sincerely, "I don't want to say it, so don't force me."

Xie Ze looked at the person sitting on the sofa, and seeing that he was unwilling to speak, it was not good to continue asking, so he could only turn around and look for an opportunity to ask Chen Yi.He sighed, stood up and prepared to go back to his room to rest. Before he left, he did not forget to tell him: "Tomorrow I will get up early to see my grandparents, and I will go to bed early at night."

Xie Yao responded perfunctorily, and the smile on his face that lasted all night gradually disappeared after his brother went upstairs.

He watched the Spring Festival Gala alone in the living room and saw the countdown. When the host on the show said Happy New Year, there were fireworks outside the window.

Xie Yao's heart moved, he picked up the coat at the side and put it on slowly, then pushed open the balcony door and walked to the back garden.

He suddenly remembered that during the Chinese New Year in previous years, he insisted on going back with Zhou Qiming, but the other party had no time to take care of him.So he found a hotel near Zhou Qiming's house, and on New Year's Eve, he watched the fleeting fireworks outside the window alone.

Even with such an unequal relationship, Xie Yao never felt inappropriate. In this relationship, he always kept his attitude low.

New Year's Eve was supposed to be a day of reunion, even though it was unavoidable to be a little disappointed, it was overshadowed by the fact that they could see each other early in the morning the next day.His passionate love is blind and reckless, he can't see anything if he can get some good, and he can't figure it out.

The sky gradually calmed down, the new year should have a new beginning, he should let go of a wrong relationship and return to his own life.

But his life is not only about feelings, but also family and friends, as well as his own life.

Xie Yao returned to his room, thinking of his brother's advice to him before going upstairs, so he decided to take a bath and go to sleep early. Tomorrow, he would accompany his family to visit the old man's house, which would be a new chapter of the year.

As a result, on the first night of the new year, Xie Yao lived up to expectations and accidentally fell in the bathroom, completely ending the first step in opening a new chapter.
