Chen Jiu didn't know how long he slept, but he really slept deeply and didn't dream, he closed his eyes and fell asleep directly.

On Xia Zimu's bed, he was very at ease.

After all, the two of them used to share the same bed when they were young, they shared bunk beds in high school, and they were still roommates in college.He couldn't be more familiar with Xia Zimu's breath.

He knew what Xia Zimu was like. He was always kind, with a cold face and a warm heart, and he was also very upright. After all, he had been with him for more than 20 years, that's why the original owner was so relieved to scum him.

Because he knew that no matter what he did, Xia Zimu would forgive him in the end.

He will not make any unconventional moves against him.

Chen Jiu was also affected by this memory. Lying on Xia Zimu's bed, he felt as comfortable as returning home, until he was awakened by a familiar voice.

"Ajiu, it's time to wake up."

It was Xia Zimu's voice, usually cold, mixed with a gentle tone.

If the HQ players were here, they would probably be stunned.Summer would never speak to them in that tone.

Chen Jiu was still very sleepy, he was in a trance, and put the quilt over his head, trying to get quiet.

This is the exclusive room for HQ Xia Zimu. His quilt is still nothing new, a very monotonous blue quilt cover without any pattern, and the bed sheet is also a matching solid color.

Anyway, it is the type that Chen Jiu would not choose.

But it is very clean, revealing a faint lemon and tea mixed aroma, not strong, very pleasant smell.

This is the taste of Xia Zimu's pheromone.

The old wine was buried in the quilt, and every breath was full of this smell. He lazily lay on the bed and continued to sleep, not paying attention.

Xia Zimu differentiated earlier than him, and identified the smell of pheromone as Earl Gray black tea. At that time, the old wine was very excited, and he hugged Xia Zimu and smelled it, thinking it was a noble smell, but he didn't differentiate and could smell nothing.

Later, he split up, and he was rarely seen.Because Xia Zimu met him every day, he sprayed an isolating agent to isolate the smell of those pheromones.

Chen Jiu heard it once in a while. It was at a sports meeting. Xia Zimu ran five kilometers. After the run, Chen Jiu helped Xia Zimu to rest aside.

Then the old wine smelled a fresh and rich aroma.

For some reason, Chen Jiu's heart beat fast and his face turned red.

Xia Zimu was still panting, glanced at Chen Jiu, seemed to realize something, took out the isolation agent from his trouser pocket, and sprayed it on himself.

So that smell is gone soon.

But Chen Jiu always remembered.

Later, when the two of them fell in love, Xia Zimu never showed any intimate behavior towards him. Only when the two hugged, at such a close distance, did Chen Jiu smell a little familiar smell.

He wanted to ask again, but Xia Zimu refused.

Yes, he actually refused!

Chen Jiu was so angry that he didn't ask Xia Zimu why, and he never mentioned it again.

He always felt that Xia Zimu didn't really like him, he just confused family affection with love.

So when he broke up with Xia Zimu, he didn't feel guilty.

"The CZ people are waiting outside." Xia Zimu looked at the ball on the bed with a good temper, "If you don't want to go, I'll tell them for you."

Chen Jiu muttered a few times and rolled around on the bed humming and chirping.

After a while, I sat up from the bed, with disheveled hair and sleepy eyes, and said, "Go."

He wants to eat hot pot.

Chen Jiu smacked his lips, his upper lip was a little sore and numb, he licked it suspiciously, it seemed a little swollen.

Is he allergic to something?

Chen Jiu's brain pondered over this question slowly.

It never occurred to him that it was Xia Zimu who secretly kissed him. Just kidding, Xia Zimu didn't kiss him much when they were dating, so it wouldn't be the case now.

Xia Zimu pulled Chen Jiu, who was still in a daze, to straighten his hair, button up his buttons, and put him on his coat very naturally. Chen Jiu suddenly woke up with a jolt.

Chen Jiu immediately stood up, three steps away from Xia Zimu: "I'll do it myself."

Xia Zimu let him come by himself, Chen Jiu pursed his lips while buttoning himself and hissed softly.

His lips were not only swollen, but also seemed to be broken. Could it be that he bit it himself?

System: "Xia Zimu secretly kissed you while you were asleep."

Chen Jiu was shocked: "Xia Zimu doesn't look like this kind of person!"

On the love value table, Xia Zimu's current love value is 90.

Chen Jiu: "..."

Why is it suddenly so high, he is a little scared.

Chen Jiu pretended to be relaxed, looked at Xia Zimu, and jokingly said in order to ease the atmosphere: "You didn't let your pheromone smell before, but now it's all over the room."

Xia Zimu: "Does it smell good?"

Chen Jiu said casually: "It's not bad, it doesn't smell as good as Zhou Chen."

Xia Zimu smiled slowly, his eyes seemed to fall on Chen Jiu's lips, and he said casually, "Really."

"—Do you really think that Zhou Chen smells better than me?"

Chen Jiu stopped buttoning his buttons: "What do you mean?"

"The match between Zhou Chen and you is only 7%." Xia Zimu said.

"The degree of matching can't determine everything. I just think he smells good." Chen Jiu raised his voice.

Xia Zimu: "Oh."

Chen Jiu felt aggrieved by his fist hitting the cotton. He walked up to Xia Zimu, stared at him fiercely, grabbed his collar, and pulled him down. The distance between the two suddenly narrowed a lot.

"I'm living a good life, and Zhou Chen is also very kind to me, and it has nothing to do with the degree of matching." Chen Jiu said, "I don't regret breaking up with you at all."

Xia Zimu's eyes were very deep, but his emotions were very reserved. Chen Jiu couldn't tell whether this person was happy or angry, but Xia Zimu lowered his eyes, and his voice was a little cold: "You said you were talking to me to make Zhou Chen jealous.Love, what do you regret?"

Xia Zimu had never spoken to Chen Jiu in such a tone, it seemed to be thorny, Chen Jiu was taken aback.

"Did I regret that I didn't touch you when we were dating, that I avoided you when you wanted to kiss me, or was it because I didn't mark you during the febrile period?" Xia Zimu said word by word.

Chen Jiu's hand trembled, and just as he fell, Xia Zimu grabbed his wrist in the opposite direction, very tightly.

"Chen Jiu, did you stay with Zhou Chen just to get revenge on me?"

Chen Jiu: "What nonsense are you talking about? I've made it very clear. I fell in love with you just to use you to make Zhou Chen jealous. Who cares about your mark!"

He pushed Xia Zimu aside hard, and walked towards the door.

The next second, someone approached a few steps behind and pushed him against the wall.

"Is what you said true?" Xia Zimu said, his voice was very deep, "You swear."

"I……"

"If it's true, we'll be just strangers in the future."

Chen Jiu's words came to his lips as if he had pressed the mute button out of thin air. He opened his mouth but said nothing.

Xia Zimu kept staring at him, very stubborn and patient, determined to pry an answer out of Chen Jiu's mouth.

There was no sound around, so quiet that you could hear a needle drop.

Chen Jiu: "I—"

Hearing Chen Jiu's opening, the emotion in Xia Zimu's eyes became silent one by one, as if he knew what Chen Jiu was going to say.

Chen Jiu was very hesitant.

If he said this, Xia Zimu might really be just a stranger to him.

The friendship that we have been together for more than 20 years is gone.

Why do you have to force him to give an answer?

Blood welled up, and Chen Jiu was dizzy, as if he had been infected by Xia Zimu's emotions, and said angrily, "I'll—"

"Bang bang bang!"

"Summer! Are you ready! We're leaving, otherwise there won't be any reserved tables—I've opened the door! Hey, what are you doing, why don't you turn on the lights?"

In a hot pot restaurant.

The waiter had just added soup to the pot and brought the food over. Qi Tian was playing mobile games with a few HQ members beside him, shouting and shouting, and at the same time commanding Peng An next to him to add food to the pot.

"Add tofu skin! Add more, it's not enough to fit between teeth."

Peng An held the mobile phone in one hand, and held up a stack of tofu skins in the other: "Can you stop arguing? I'm playing games and you let me take the blame? Why don't you direct Ink, he is also at the table."

Peng An's movements were too violent, a stack of tofu skins, the soup splashed half a meter high, almost poured the head of the person opposite, and took a hot pot bath.

Chen Jiu said: "I'll come."

He is now in a very awkward and unspeakable situation.

Sitting opposite him was Xia Zimu, and next to him were Zhou Chen and Xu Jianan.

Just now, the old lover was on the verge of daggers, and now he has to eat hot pot face to face for the team, which is really exciting.

Chen Jiu watched his nose, nose, and heart, trying to ignore the embarrassment, leaned over and threw a few dishes into it.

Qi Tian was besieged and beaten to death by four people. He was so angry that he threw away his phone. Seeing Summer looking at Chen Jiu with an extremely cold gaze, the scene he accidentally saw when he pushed the door open appeared in his mind.

Summee seemed to be in a hurry and wanted to punch Chen Jiu, but Chen Jiu was stupid and didn't know how to hide. Fortunately, he appeared in time!

Qi Tian coughed and said: "Summer, Chen Jiu belongs to our team. If he does something wrong, don't hit him. He is already thin and weak, so he can't stand your punch."

He wanted to say this just now, but never found the opportunity.

Before Summer said anything, the others frowned first.

Zhou Chen looked at Chen Jiu: "What's the matter, did he hit you?"

Chen Jiu: "Uh, no..."

"No way!" Qi Tian revived, and while manipulating the characters to move forward, he quickly recounted the scene at that time, which made his heart tremble with fear and his blood boil.

Chen Jiu said awkwardly: "No really, we are friends, just chatting for a while."

Qi Tian believes that seeing is believing, seeing that Chen Jiu is protecting Summer so much, he doesn't say anything anymore.

Zhou Chen looked at Xia Zimu with a cold voice: "If you don't like him, don't force it."

Xia Zimu twitched the corner of his mouth: "I'm just joking, I never hit anyone—Chen Jiu, right?"

Chen Jiu: "He really didn't hit me, we were just joking around, does anyone eat shrimp?"

Chen Jiu picked up the plate on the side. It seemed that the plate had just been taken out of the freezer, and it was still very cold. When it was steamed by the heat, it began to drip water.

Chen Jiu slipped his hand and almost fell.

Fortunately, someone held the bottom of the dish in time.

"Take it easy." Xu Jianan smiled at Chen Jiu, like a ostentatious butterfly.

Chen Jiu: "...Thank you."

Just as Chen Jiu sat down, he was about to reach for his phone to avoid embarrassment.

System: "Good news, your NTR mission is coming. Please seduce anyone at the dinner table in front of Zhou Chen. If Zhou Chen finds out, or the seduced person doesn't know about it, the mission will fail."

Chen Jiu: "???"

I just want to have a good hot pot meal!
