"… Adonis just immersed himself in the comfortable head massage, feeling as if he were being gently caressed by a spring breeze, instantly relaxed and happy. He turned to look at Dylan beside him, wanting to speak but hesitating.
Hmm? Dylan was busy arranging various seasonings he grabbed on the table. 'What's wrong with me?' he wondered. "
It's okay, sigh. Adonis picked up a bottle of sesame oil and poured it into the dipping sauce dish in front of him, then handed it to Dylan, saying, "Here you go." "
Dylan nodded gently. At this moment, there were a few knocks on the door, indicating that the dishes they ordered had arrived. Dylan got up to open the door, took the trolley from the waiter, closed the door, turned around, and pushed the trolley towards the dining table, saying, "Aren't you hungry? You can eat soon." "
"Okay, sure." Adonis lowered his head to flip the switch under the table and gestured for Dylan to sit down. "You too, take a seat." "
Adonis was thinking about his own little plan at this moment. He looked at the steaming red soup in the pot and called out to Dylan, "I feel like having some wine." As the saying goes, wine gives courage to heroes. Adonis secretly encouraged himself, although he considered himself brave. If I can control my alcohol intake a little tonight and subtly give Dylan some hints, maybe we can naturally come together tonight.
No. Before Adonis could even think of the next strategy, Dylan immediately and decisively refused, "You turn into a madman as soon as you start drinking." "
"… Adonis's face instantly turned red, muttering to himself, 'Such a good opportunity and you didn't seize it. If you miss this chance, you may not have another one like it!' But he could only silently shout these words in his heart, while saying softly, "I will drink less." "
That won't work either. Dylan recalled the last incident with lingering fear. Although Adonis was exceptionally charming that time, almost making it difficult for Dylan to control himself, he vividly remembered the next day when his neck was sore all day long. "If you want to drink, I'll go buy you a carbonated drink, which tastes similar to alcohol." "
As he spoke, he was about to stand up and go out to buy water. No way! Adonis's perfect plan was thrown into chaos by an unexpected turn of events. Frustrated, he jumped up and exclaimed, "If you won't buy it, I'll take matters into my own hands and provide for myself!" "
"Okay, okay, okay. Drink up." "Dylan held Adonis down like he was holding a flea, pushing him back onto his throne,"Stay here and don't move." "
"Hmph." "Adonis sat firmly on his throne like Mount Tai, holding two magical wands in his hands, ready to embark on a magical culinary journey." Fast in, fast out. He waved to Dylan as if he were a king about to go to war.
Dylan nodded, like a loyal hound, and quickly disappeared through the door. Adonis listened as the door opened and closed gently, feeling a sudden inexplicable nervousness in his heart. His brain works like a high-speed supercomputer, frantically calculating how to convey his intentions in the most elegant way without losing his grace.
As he was lost in his thoughts, the food in the pot had been boiling in the passionate broth countless times, already well cooked and exuding a fragrant aroma. He kept complaining about being starving, but he didn't even take a bite. I'm back. Dylan's voice drifted in from the horizon, Adonis didn't look back, just waited quietly for Dylan to approach on his own.
Here you go, as you requested. "
A pink aluminum can of cocktail gently landed by Adonis's hand. Adonis widened his eyes and stared at the girlish bottle, 'Alcohol content 3 degrees, are you trying to make me happy?' "
Almost. "Dylan easily helped him open the lid, "It's peach-flavored, I've had it before and I thought it was pretty good." "
Adonis couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, "Why did you buy this?" "
Because there is no beer in the store. "Dylan shrugged as if it was the most ordinary thing in the world." Dylan picked up the chopsticks with a serious expression, accurately picked up a piece of spinach, slowly put it into his bowl, and leisurely chewed on it, "This thing can barely go with some wine." "
You're talking nonsense. "Adonis pretended to be defiant, but still grabbed the aluminum can and took a big gulp, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down,"When I just walked in, I saw that the big freezer at the entrance was full of alcohol, did you think I didn't notice?" "All gone." Dylan remained unfazed and said, "And also, if we don't scoop them out soon, your potato slices will turn into mush in the pot." "
Adonis took a deep breath, picked up a ladle to scoop up the potato slices in the pot, muttering to himself, "Forget it, it's not me who's unlucky anyway." "
What did you say? "Dylan didn't hear clearly, so he raised his voice and asked."
"I say!" "Adonis raised his voice, "You lie without even blinking an eye!" "
You flatter me. "Dylan took Adonis's drink without hesitation, took a sip, and looked somewhat smug as he spoke."
Adonis had his mouth full of food, feeling a mix of emotions in his heart, "I guess we are destined to be apart." He thought, 'Why is this person so emotionally unintelligent at a time like this.' After the meal, feeling warm from the hotpot, the two decided to put on their coats and walk back to school, taking a post-dinner stroll along the way.
"Do not look at indecent things, do not look at indecent things." As they leisurely walked down the street, Adonis suddenly covered Dylan's eyes with his hands, muttering under his breath. Dylan was puzzled by this sudden behavior. He struggled to break free from Adonis's grip and asked, "What are you up to?" "
"There's a young couple in front of us showing affection, let's not make them feel uncomfortable." "Adonis turned his face to Dylan's ear and whispered an explanation."
Your obvious avoidance only makes them more uncomfortable. "Dylan sighed, "Just pretend you didn't see it." "
Adonis pondered for a moment and thought that Dylan's words made sense, so he let go of his hand. The couple in front of them quickly separated upon seeing Adonis and Dylan, and then... Waved to them?
"? Adonis took a closer look and exclaimed, "Gene?" Is that Gene? "
"That's right." "Dylan confirmed on the side." Oh, isn't this our busy bee Gene? When Adonis and Dylan passed by Gene and his mysterious girlfriend, Gene broke the silence first. We just enjoyed a delicious feast. "Adonis smiled and linked arms with Dylan, his smile as bright as sunlight on the lake, leaving no doubt about his sincerity, "What a coincidence." He waved to the slightly blushing Jiang Wanyao and said, "We won't disturb your sweet moment, so we'll take our leave now." "
"Okay, goodbye." "Gene still held onto Jiang Wanyao tightly, waving goodbye." Adonis and Dylan nodded, continuing their journey home. Before they had even walked far, Adonis keenly caught the whispers coming from behind them.
Are they really a couple? Jiang Wanyao's voice drifted softly, causing Adonis to slow down and perk up his ears. "Impossible, who said that?" "Gene smiled and denied, "They are just very good friends." "
"Oh, Tina mentioned it before, but I have the same feeling today..." "
Okay, let's stop discussing... As their footsteps gradually faded away, the murmurs behind them also dispersed in the wind, disappearing into the night. Adonis pretended to casually glance at Dylan, only to unexpectedly find that the other person was also sneakily stealing glances at him. Since Dylan could hear the whispers behind his back, there was no reason he couldn't hear them.
Adonis had some expectations in his heart, but Dylan didn't say anything until they were close to the school gate. The street lamps on the roadside are neatly arranged, casting the shadows of the two people behind them, constantly intertwining and changing. Tonight for Adonis, not only did he not get to confess his feelings, but his plan was also interrupted before it even started. He pouted and took the opportunity to step on Dylan's shadow from behind.
That. Finally, when they both saw the iconic badge at the school gate, Dylan spoke to Adonis.
Adonis turned his head immediately when he heard his name, looking at him expectantly, "You called?" "
Did you bring your meal card? "
"? Adonis's smile gradually faded. Don't we need a pass to enter? "Dylan's face was full of worry, "I forgot to bring it, you must have brought it." Adonis's eager anticipation vanished in an instant, like a dandelion swept away by a tornado, leaving no trace behind. He turned around expressionlessly and fumbled in his pocket, "Oh, I brought it." "He responded coldly."
Great. "Dylan reached out his hand, "Let me borrow it first." "
Adonis impatiently threw the meal card at him, said nothing, quickened his pace, and walked ahead alone.
Dylan looked at his clearly angry back, quickly caught up, reached out his long arm, and placed it on his shoulder, "Feeling upset? "
No. Adonis suddenly replied in a sarcastic tone, "I'm especially happy today." "
Dylan showed his ID to the security guard at the entrance, and then walked in with Adonis, saying, 'Here you go.' He handed the meal card back to Adonis and glanced at his watch. "By the way, it's still early. Do you want to go for a 5K run? The sports event is coming up soon." "I don't feel like moving today." Adonis was immersed in the world of his phone, looking down. Since Dylan accidentally discovered his Weibo account last time and proudly followed and liked it, he decided to open a new account. At the moment, he is using this trumpet, with a hint of dissatisfaction, sent a micro blog: "do not understand style! Coward! "
Adonis put down his phone, shrugged his shoulders, and pushed Dylan's arm away from him. "You said you were going to sign up earlier, did you sign up?" "
What? "Dylan didn't keep up with the rhythm for a moment."
Sports event volunteer. "
I have reported it, and I also applied to the team leader to join the long-distance running group. "
"Hmm." "Adonis responded gently, "That's fine." "
Back in the dorm room, as soon as Adonis and Dylan walked in, Oswin wrinkled his nose in disgust and protested, "Go take a shower, the hot pot smell on both of you is absolutely unbearable." "
Is that so? "Adonis sniffed himself, then leaned over to smell Dylan, "I do smell a bit, I'll go take a shower." Can't you two take a bath together? "Oswin pinched his nose, his eyes rolling as if they were about to pop out of their sockets, "Quickly get rid of this smell." "
Are you out of your mind! "
Adonis usually doesn't take Oswin's jokes to heart and occasionally joins in the fun with him. But this time, he seemed truly angry, his eyes nailed to Oswin, with a hint of gunpowder in his tone. Oswin squinted at the guy in front of him and thought to himself, "Why is this guy acting so strangely today?" He turned to Dylan with a questioning look, only to find that Dylan completely ignored him, just hugging his arms, leaning against the table, tilting his head and staring at Adonis with deep eyes as if trying to see through him.
