Chapter 88 Coat

The plague of cell phone ringing spread throughout the bedroom.
Bai Xinghe was woken up.
Since then, his routine has been the day and night of the e-sports mode, and he has not changed it since he became an anchor. At this moment, eight or nine o'clock in the morning is the time for him to sleep.
What phone call... so annoying.
"Who is it?" He said into the phone in a nasty voice.
"it's me."
A familiar male voice came from the ear.
……
It turned out to be the creditor Ning Lingxiao.
The sleepy bug scattered like a bird or a beast, and he said with a headache: "What's wrong?"
"did you have breakfast?"
"...No." Calling early in the morning just because of this kind of shit?
"I'll pick you up," Ning Lingxiao said, "Let's have dinner first, and I'll talk to you about the rest of the matter."
Bai Xinghe suddenly realized: "What about marriage?"
"Ah."
"Okay," he barely got up from the bed, "do you know where I live?"
"know."
"Then I hang up."
He forgot to draw the curtains at night, and when he opened his eyes, he would be starved by the sun's rays. Bai Xinghe was not used to getting up so early. After washing up, he sat on the bed for a while, and soon fell asleep again.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.
It is estimated that Ning Lingxiao himself came up.
Last night he tossed and turned, unable to sleep, and kept ruminating on the issue of loving his son.
Regret?
He didn't understand either.
The door opened, and Ning Lingxiao stopped in the door frame. The way he was wearing a shirt reminded him of the small fragments of the past. The light was very dim, and the vaguely hideous tattoos under the young man's thin shirt barked at him at night. At that time, he said that these tattoos were not good-looking. , why not tattoo a Mickey Mouse.How did Ning Lingxiao answer later?
"That's the kind of place you live."
The man walked past him and stopped behind the sofa to watch.Bai Xinghe's residence is a rented single apartment, the location is not good, and the house is also very ordinary.
He hummed: "Enough."
"Live alone?" Ning Lingxiao's eyes stopped on the discarded magazines and coats on the sofa.
"Yes."
Otherwise, can it still be two people?
Bai Xinghe went forward to put away his coat and threw it in the clothes basket. This coat was left by Aiko when he stayed overnight at his place last time, and he hasn't come back to wear it until now.
Ning Lingxiao was like a leader inspecting the dormitory, and after checking the living room, he made an evaluation: "This place is not suitable for you."
He disagreed: "It's quite suitable, it's a bit far from the city, but I don't really need to go out, and it's not noisy here, and it's very quiet at night."
"We're getting married soon," Ning Lingxiao looked at him, "You can't live in this kind of place."
He was stunned: "...why?"
"My parents would be suspicious if the newlyweds separated right after they got married."
"..."
"You move to live with me."
Does this work too?
False marriages are still to this extent...
Despite the embarrassment, he agreed: "I'll move in in a few days."
Ning Lingxiao: "You haven't had breakfast yet, have you? Let's go."
Compared with Ning Lingxiao's calmness and orderliness about the flash marriage with his ex, he is like a tool man being manipulated. He will only try his best to cooperate with what Ning Lingxiao wants him to do.
When he arrived at the Cantonese morning tea restaurant, Bai Xinghe flipped through the menu absently. He didn't have much appetite, and eating with his ex-boyfriend was enough to make him dizzy.
"You have a bad complexion." Ning Lingxiao said suddenly.
"It's okay...just got up early." He lowered his head and checked a few dishes on the menu, and handed them to the waiter.
Ning Lingxiao said again: "Does this matter disturb you?"
What is this matter?
Ning Lingxiao is always keen to use vague words in front of him, and then see how he thinks wrong.
It has been more than six years, why is it still such a virtue?
His silence and pallor fell into Ning Lingxiao's eyes and turned into a tacit affirmative answer.
"I understand." Ning Lingxiao said.
It was indeed the case.
Ning Lingxiao got married to deal with her parents.
When Ning Lingxiao talked about the reason for the marriage yesterday, he knew that he couldn't refuse.
All of this is likely to be the butterfly effect of the past. It was he who flapped his wings lightly six years ago, which stirred up the sea hurricane that was quarreling within the Ning family.
If it wasn't for him, Ning Lingxiao wouldn't be separated from her parents.
Regret?
He also wanted to ask the person in front of him.
"Is your relationship with uncle and aunt better now?" Bai Xinghe raised his eyes in a pot of porridge.He tried to make his words sound like gossip.
"Don't worry." Ning Lingxiao said lightly.
What does it mean?
"Two years ago, my parents asked me to go back to City B. It's a reconciliation, although I didn't go back." Ning Lingxiao stared at him vaguely through a thick layer of porridge fog, "What about you?"
Bai Xinghe was silent for a while: "...It's about the same as your situation."
Ning Lingxiao: "If you marry me, your father will stop it."
Bai Gang used to be a blind man with a bad temper. He told Ning Lingxiao that he was useless to his face, thinking that this man had brought his son to the brink.In fact, it was just the opposite, Bai Xinghe was the bad kid, after realizing this, Bai Gang went crazy.
He was very disappointed with Bai Gang, and Bai Gang was the same for him.Even if time passed, these cracks could not be healed. From then on, at most, he and Bai Gang could only maintain the current state of letting go of their past suspicions and being polite like strangers. They would never return to the old days of joking around their father.
Feelings cannot stand the test, no matter love or family affection.
"He can't do anything." Bai Xinghe didn't care about his father's opinion.
"Xinghe? You are here too..."
During the silence, a male voice suddenly broke in.
Bai Xinghe saw that it was Yan Ruo.
Yan Ruo probably also came to have breakfast, and smiled happily at him, then turned to Ning Lingxiao who was at the same table as him: "Is this your friend?"
Oops……
The melancholy just now disappeared, and his mind went blank.
The past few days have been muddled, and I forgot to explain to Yan Ruo that he is already planning to marry someone else...
I didn't want Ning Lingxiao to react very quickly, and before Bai Xinghe recovered from his daze, this person had already smiled and complained to him: "Xinghe, do you have other friends in S City?"
This sounds strange.
"...That's right," Bai Xinghe put down the spoon and asked Yan Ruo, "Why did you come to S City?"
"Business trip," Yan Ruo sized him up, "What a coincidence."
"This is... the son of my father's colleague, Yan Ruo." Facing Ning Lingxiao's half-smile look, Bai Xinghe forced a smile, he never knew that there were such embarrassing things in the world.
Yan Ruo probably sensed that the atmosphere was delicate, so she nodded understandingly and said that she would leave first and contact later.However, Ning Lingxiao didn't seem to intend to let Bai Xinghe go, and said, "Why didn't you introduce me to your friends?"
When he said this, Ning Lingxiao had no expression on his face.
Based on Bai Xinghe's understanding of him, this person is not in a good mood. If he doesn't coax him well, he will be in a cold war all day... It was like this in the past.
He subconsciously comforted his lover: "Don't be angry."
"Ning Lingxiao is not my friend," he turned to Yan Ruo and said, "Well...he's my boyfriend now. I'll explain to you tonight, sorry."
This apology is sincere.
Although Yan Ruo's surprised and puzzled expression and leaving made him feel more guilty.Why does he always screw things up?
On the way back, there was a traffic jam again. There was a car accident ahead, and the queue of cars stood still on the road neatly.He fell asleep staring at one of them, and someone covered him and told the driver to turn up the heat.Bai Xinghe vaguely heard it, but he didn't wake up. He only suspected that it was a part of his youth. In the past, he would ride home with Ning Lingxiao in the car from time to time. Occasionally he would meet Ning's parents—very soon. These two kind and gentle people never imagined that they could be so tough later on.
It's all in the past...
When he woke up, he had already reached the gate of the community. He returned the coat he was covering to Ning Lingxiao and got out of the car.
"If your father disagrees, don't quarrel with him, I'll handle it." Ning Lingxiao told him when he sent him to the front of the unit.
Bai Xinghe shook his head: "He won't disagree."
It took Bai Gang more than six years to accept the eldest son's sexuality, and like most parents, he hoped that he would get married soon and stabilize.There is nothing wrong with Yan Ruo, no different from the people he met who expressed affection for him.Sometimes he also hesitated, should he listen to his father?Compromise slowly like many people, find a stable job, marry someone who doesn't like but treats him well, and spend a lifetime with rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea?
Those memories will be bleak, as if the time he flew away can never be touched again.
but……
"I'm worried." Ning Lingxiao frowned.
"But I didn't expect to see you again," Bai Xinghe answered irrelevantly, and whispered, "I was wrong in the past, Ling Xiao."
What does Ning Lingxiao mean to him?
It's the first kiss, basketball, the glory of the king, quarrels, hugs, orgasms... It's his hopeless and irreplaceable lost youth.
The man's leaning shadow enveloped him like a drape.
He heard the other party say, "Close your eyes."
Bai Xinghe opened his eyes and did not do this.
A kiss carefully landed on his lips. It felt like when I was a child, I awkwardly accompanied my brother and stepmother to the botanical garden, holding my breath cautiously to hug a favorite flower in a place where they couldn't see.He saw the yellow bird on Ning Lingxiao's neck again, its round eyes stared at him hesitantly, it still looked bright and terrifying six years ago.
There are children screaming around—
Brothers are kissing, come and see.
Why kiss here, I'm not shy at all.
Ning Lingxiao let him go and put the coat on his shoulders.
"Wear more, it's cold in the morning. It can be seen that you don't usually go out." Ning Lingxiao lowered her eyes and paused, "I'm leaving, see you tomorrow."
Bai Xinghe thought to himself, what does this person mean?
