The hotel room had a strange smell, Xie Yao couldn't tell what it was like, he sat blankly on the pure white sheet, looking at the water bottle in his hand, although it was transparent, it still made him feel bottomless.

He hasn't been in this hotel for a long time, and he rarely stayed in hotels in the past, not to mention that he checked in tonight by himself.

When checking in, Xie Yao nervously squeezed the palm of his ID card and was sweating. Fortunately, the front desk didn't ask him too much. After checking the room for him, he handed over the room card to him.

At this moment, he was sitting in the huge room, quietly waiting for Zhou Qiming's arrival.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the door was knocked lightly, but Xie Yao could hear it clearly.

He was still very nervous, dragging his clothes hem and refused to get up to open the door. To some extent, he actually didn't think about how to face it.Mingming kept urging himself in his heart, but there was no action in his behavior.

The people outside the house knocked on the door and stopped when there was no response. Xie Yao sat in the car at a loss, and the water bottle he was holding was getting closer and closer. For a moment, a thought of giving up flashed in his mind.

Do you want to give up?

These four words hit Xie Yao's heart one by one, and before he had time to think about it, the phone rang, it was an unfamiliar number.

He was panicked for a moment, but he still answered the phone involuntarily.And on the other end of the phone, there was a familiar voice.

"Open the door."

Xie Yao heard the person on the other end of the phone say to him, two words that couldn't be more short. When he spoke, there was even no fluctuation in his tone, but this attitude made him even more flustered.

Thinking of this, Xie Yao couldn't help trembling slightly, he mustered up the courage to unscrew the cap of the bottle in front of him, glanced at the contents, and took a deep breath.

Then he twisted the lid, and he was still drunk from the alcohol in his mind. In fact, he was already very dizzy, and the only bit of sobriety left was subconsciously telling himself what he was going to do.

The door was slowly opened by him, slow like a rusty gear, until seeing the person standing outside the door, Xie Yao felt that he had that sense of reality.

"You came?"

There was caution in his words, and there was even such an expectation.Looking at the person outside the door, the corners of Xie Yao's mouth couldn't hold back a little bit, because the moment he saw the person outside the door, the powerlessness and fragility in his heart were filled with such a moment of joy.

"Have you been drinking?" Zhou Qiming stood outside the door, looking at Xie Yao's flushed cheeks, as if he was a little surprised.He stretched out his hand to touch Xie Yao's forehead, but he didn't have a fever at all, otherwise the illness that had been so hard to recede a few days ago would recur, and he should be worried that this person would feel uncomfortable later.

Zhou Qiming's inadvertent question, in Xie Yao's eyes, was somewhat accusatory.Thinking of being blamed, Xie Yao felt aggrieved again, and immediately lowered his head, unwilling to say another word to Zhou Qiming.

Suddenly, the image of Zhou Qiming and Zhuang Yu kissing in the afternoon appeared in his mind uncontrollably.This picture was too clear, it was frozen in Xie Yao's mind, and played back again and again uncontrollably.

This scene can always prick Xie Yao's fragile nerves.Thinking of this, he turned around sadly, unwilling to take another look at the person outside the door.

"come in."

Xie Yao calmed down, and never felt the joy of opening the door again.Zhou Qiming didn't know exactly what happened, but judging from Xie Yao's reaction, he could vaguely sense that Xie Yao seemed a little unhappy.

When he came in, Zhou Qiming closed the door of the room by the way. After closing the door, he followed Xie Yao and walked into the house. He was about to say something, but was interrupted by Xie Yao's sudden words.

"Will you drink water?" Xie Yao picked up a bottle of water at some point, unscrewed it and handed it to him, and looked up at himself, as if confirming.

Zhou Qiming didn't take it seriously, and silently took the water bottle. He had never seen this brand of water before, but thought the packaging was a bit unique. He picked it up and was about to take a sip when Xie Yao directly interrupted him.

"Wait a moment!"

Xie Yao's exclamation successfully interrupted Zhou Qiming's movements. Zhou Qiming didn't know why, and waited for his response.But after waiting for a long time, Xie Yao opened his mouth but couldn't say anything. Zhou Qiming wanted to ask, but he didn't take it seriously because Xie Yao waved his hand.

He took a sip of the water in the bottle, but after taking a sip, he unexpectedly felt that the water was sweet, so he couldn't hold back and took a few more sips.After drinking, Zhou Qiming screwed on the bottle cap, then put the water bottle on the table, walked up to Xie Yao, and looked at the person sitting on the bed in a daze.

Xie Yao's eyes were a little hollow, and he didn't say a few words to him after he came in, except to hand him a bottle of water.For this sake, Zhou Qiming couldn't tell that something was wrong with Xie Yao, but he was really insensitive, but he couldn't figure out why Xie Yao looked so disappointed.

Obviously he was the one who took the initiative to invite the date, but in the end it was he who didn't make it on time, he was the one who used himself as a substitute, and he was the one who kept silent when he didn't need him.Thinking of this, Zhou Qiming couldn't help but pursed his lower lips, and then asked, "Isn't it because you have something to say that you called me here?"

Hearing this, Xie Yao raised his head and looked at the person standing in front of him. He hesitated for a long time, and finally choked out a sentence: "Why are you here?"

Zhou Qiming was baffled by this sentence, and felt angry and funny, but facing Xie Yao like this, he couldn't help but soften his heart.Zhou Qiming couldn't help but rubbed Xie Yao's head like before, and his tone became soft unconsciously, "Drunk? Haven't you sobered up yet?"

Seeing that Xie Yao didn't answer him, Xie Yao ignored him, and there was silence between the two of them again, but seeing Xie Yao like this, Zhou Qiming was worried and walked away, so he just sat down and spent a while with Xie Yao in a daze.

Neither of them took the initiative to speak. Zhou Qiming sat for a while. He didn't know whether it was because the air in the room was not circulating or the hotel's air-conditioning was out of order. After sitting for a long time, it became hotter and hotter, so Zhou Qiming simply got up and told Xie YaoSentence: "I'm going to take a shower."

Seeing the person walking into the bathroom with a bath towel, Xie Yao didn't speak to stop him, and he didn't keep looking at Zhou Qiming, but lowered his head weakly because he felt ashamed.

Hearing the sound of water in the bathroom, Xie Yao said many words to Zhou Qiming in his heart, but all of them were "I'm sorry".

After being silent for so long, Xie Yao finally stood up. He walked slowly towards an inconspicuous corner, took out his mobile phone and turned it to silent. After that, he put the mobile phone behind the potted plant, and took theSome things lightly cover the surrounding area.

After finishing all this, he sat on the bed again, staring at the bottle of water that Qi Ming drank last week on the table in a daze.

The water was provided by Peng, but it was not an ordinary bottle of mineral water.After being lost all night, Peng Fang asked himself if he really liked Zhou Qiming.

Hearing this question at the time, Xie Yao didn't hesitate at all. He repeated "like" several times incoherently. His brain was eroded by alcohol, and the thoughts that came out of the chaos came from the most authentic voice deep in his heart.

"Xiao Xie, sometimes likes are not necessarily two-way. If you don't try boldly for a single crush, you won't even have a chance." When Peng Fang said this, it didn't fit his usual appearance.Calm, for a moment Xie Yao felt that this childhood playmate in front of him seemed a little strange, as if he was no longer the carefree child he used to play with.

"Then what should I do?" Xie Yao looked at him and asked uncertainly.

"Then fight for it. Although the means are a bit despicable, if you can turn the complete impossibility into a 30% possibility, it will be considered a success." Peng Fang dug out a bottle of water from his messenger bag, and handed it to Xie Yao, "So you might as well try other methods. There is no way to cultivate the relationship, but if you miss it, you may never have another chance."

Looking at the things in his hands, Xie Yao hesitated for a long time but failed to ask what he wanted to say. Peng Fang saw through his worries and added: "It's just for fun, it won't harm the body."

"Xie Yao, even if the squad leader really doesn't want to obey you in the end, you can tie him up with other conditions. We know a little about the situation at the squad leader's house. He needs money and opportunities. If you block his wayHe will definitely turn around and beg you."

When Peng Fang said these words, he was careless, as if he was born superior to others, but he was indeed right, because their birth was destined to be much easier than that of many ordinary people.

Xie Yao hesitated for a long time. He wanted to return the things to Peng Fang, but when he thought of the scene in the afternoon, he couldn't help feeling a twinge of pain in his heart. Thinking of this, he didn't hesitate any longer. He clenched the things in his hands and boldly sent them to Zhou Qiming.sent a message.

"Would you like to come and see me?" he asked.

It took a long time for Zhou Qiming to reply to himself. When Xie Yao thought that Zhou Qiming would not reply again, a message popped up in the prompt box of WeChat, which was sent by Zhou Qiming.

The content of the message was very brief, but the attitude couldn't be more clear. For a moment, Xie Yao had an illusion, as if he himself was also firmly chosen by Zhou Qiming.

"Where are you? I'm looking for you now." Zhou Qiming replied.

Simple Xiaoxie, confused online, simple and a bit stupid, but it fits the mood of that age who just wants to get the person he likes regardless of his age, impulsive and reckless.
