I'm a world apart from you

Chapter 73 Every day is time smiling (3)
Hearing the movement, Wen Shaoyuan turned his head and glanced, saw that it was her, holding a book in one hand, tapped the other hand on the table a few times, and said softly, "Come here."

Wen Ge glanced around, saw the quilt and pillows piled together on the couch, couldn't help laughing: "Do you really want to sleep on the floor?"

"Sleeping in the living room." Wen Shaoyuan reached out to take the plate from her hand and put it on the desk, suddenly raised his tone slightly, and asked maliciously: "Do you think it's better for me to sleep in the living room, or He Xing?"

Wen Ge didn't understand what he meant for a while, so she let out a cry, and looked at him in bewilderment.

Seeing no one outside the door, Wen Shaoyuan thought that no one would pass by at this time, so he wrapped his long arms around her and hugged her into his arms.

"I ask, is it okay for me to sleep in the living room, huh?" The last syllable rises, unspeakably ecstasy, with obvious temptation, and Wen Ge's ears shudder, and he asks him for no reason: "What do you mean?"

"If I sleep in the living room..." He paused mysteriously, and whispered in her ear, "When everyone falls asleep, I can go to your room and be with you..."

He didn't say the last word, but the ambiguous tone was like a ribbon that could tie his heart. Hearing the song, his heart tightened, his ears felt hot, and his whole face turned red. In the picture, her mouth was even dry.

She suddenly raised her hand to cover her eyes, and said righteously: "This is at my house, what are you thinking?"

What responded to her was his deep laughter - different from the usual suppressed laughter, he was really smiling with pleasure, and his voice was pleasant.

Only then did she realize that he was teasing herself.

Before Wen Ge let go of the hand covering his eyes, the throbbing chest finally stopped.Wen Shaoyuan reached out and pinched her chin lightly, turned her face to face him, lowered his head and kissed her on the lips: "Just kidding."

When his kiss fell, the cool tip of his nose touched her skin, and his long eyelashes swept across the back of his hand, itching slightly, with an indescribable heartbeat.

Wen Ge subconsciously closed her eyes, feeling the softness of his lips resting on hers, and her heart went numb.

After all, thinking that it's not convenient here, and it's not good to be seen by anyone, Wen Shaoyuan only hesitated for a moment, then stepped back, leaning on the desk, hugging her, lazily and casually.

Beside him is a retro desk lamp, emitting a warm light.

Wen Shaoyuan pulled down her hand that was still covering her eyes, and held it in the palm of her hand, then tilted her head to kiss her palm and the back of her ear, "I just heard from my uncle that you are very interested in opening your own shop?"

He kissed her so tenderly that Wen Ge couldn't even think about it, his blank brain worked for a moment before he nodded: "Is that okay?"

"Okay." He smiled lowly, "As long as you like it."

Wen Ge pouted, turned around in his arms, and the hand he held fell on his waist: "What did you say?"

Wen Shaoyuan didn't answer, but stared at her quietly with deep and deep eyes, lowered his head slightly, and pressed her forehead against it: "Do you know how much budget you want? If you like it, I can ask He Xing to have a look tomorrow."

Wen Ge let out an ah, and then came back to his senses from his words: "What?"

"Would you like to open a shop in City N or City A, or both?" Wen Shaoyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was thinking seriously.

Seeing his sudden divergence of thinking, Wen Ge couldn't help feeling amused: "I haven't thought about it yet."

Wen Shaoyuan looked down at her, and lightly touched the tip of her nose: "Well, think about it slowly, I'm not in a hurry."

Wen Ge: "..."

She's not in a hurry, what's the hurry, uncle?
Just as she was in a daze, he wanted to bow his head and kiss her again.

He lowered his eyes slightly, and there seemed to be water in his eyes, with a faint charm.

Wen Ge suddenly laughed, and turned his head slightly to avoid it.

Wen Shaoyuan didn't feel annoyed when he failed, he dropped his lips again, kissed her on the neck, and then looked at her: "What are you hiding?"

"You're going too far." Wen Ge put on a serious face, and poked his fingers lightly on his chest, "You're getting more and more fond of touching me."

Wen Shaoyuan raised his eyebrows, and asked instead: "You don't like it?"

Wen Ge hesitated for a moment, then shook his head resolutely, seeing his dimmed eyes, thought for a while, and added: "I don't really like you being like that anytime, anywhere..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted softly: "Sorry, I probably can't do it."

Wen Ge: "..."

"I've wanted to be close to you for a long time." Now that I finally have a suitable identity, why give up this benefit?If it wasn't for Xu Liqing's reluctance to turn the current relationship into a rational relationship, he would ask her to show her household registration book when she came back this trip.

Thinking of this, he sighed softly, and just hugged her: "I must be tired after sitting in the car for so long, go back and rest early. If there is anything, we will talk about it tomorrow."

Wen Ge nodded, sniffing the unknown but very familiar fragrance on his collar, tiptoed into his arms, and kissed his cheek.

After comforting him, he was about to evacuate, but Wen Ge was trapped by his instantly increased strength.

Wen Shaoyuan's low and somewhat hoarse voice rang in her ears: "If you don't like it, come tease me."

Wen Ge looked innocent.

Early the next morning, not long after dawn, Wen Ge was woken up by the sound outside the door - four years of living abroad, living in no fixed place, made her extremely sensitive to the surrounding environment.

After Wen Ge rolled the quilt back and forth twice on the bed, there were still voices of talking and walking outside the door.She opened her eyes, adapted to the light outside the window, and then slowly sat up, leaning lazily against the head of the bed with her tired body.

Wen Ge yawned when his sleepiness subsided a bit, picked up the alarm clock on the bedside table and looked at it, it was very good, it was only seven o'clock in the morning.

She turned over and got up, washed and dressed.

When she packed herself up and came out, the living room was already empty.

Wen Ge combed her short hair with her fingers, and walked towards the kitchen with her slippers on.

Xu Liqing was washing rice, her hands were wet, she rubbed the apron casually, and said, "Why did you wake up so early? I want you to sleep a little longer!"

"Can't sleep." Wen Ge stretched, leaned forward in this position, and hugged Xu Liqing, "What's for breakfast this morning?"

"It hasn't been cooked yet." Xu Liqing remembered the half-washed rice in the kitchen just now, and hugged Wen Ge's waist, "Okay, let go first, do you want to have breakfast?"

Wen Ge rubbed Xu Liqing's shoulder, then let go of her, and followed her into the kitchen like a little tail: "Did He Xing leave?"

"Well, when I woke up, the three of them were already sitting on the sofa in the living room. I don't know how many cigarette butts were thrown into the crystal jar on the table. The living room smelled of cigarettes." Xu Liqing sipped a little dissatisfied. He pursed his lips and continued, "I didn't know what time I got up."

Just as Wen Ge opened the refrigerator to get milk, when he heard this, he poked his head out to look at Xu Liqing: "Sitting there for a long time?" And smoked a lot?
"Well, I just woke up, and He Xing was about to leave. He said that there were many things to do in the hotel. Shaoyuan was not in the hotel, so he would be there anyway. He didn't even have time to make him breakfast, so he left in a hurry . ” The sound of running water covered up her soft voice, making it too blurry to hear clearly.

"He insisted that I stop him from doing it? A breakfast restaurant just opened on the street, and I asked Shaoyuan to take him there for breakfast. Your father just returned to the room and said he was too tired to catch up on sleep. .”

Turning off the faucet, Xu Liqing looked back at her, saw her standing in front of the refrigerator, holding cold milk in her hand, and clicked her tongue: "Why are you in a daze? Close the door, you don't think it's too cold."

Only then did Wen Ge come to his senses, and closed the refrigerator door.

She was about to go out with the milk, when Xu Liqing stopped her again: "Put the milk here, I'll heat it up for you later and drink it later. Why are you so absent-minded? Are you worried about Shaoyuan? I asked yesterday, and he It’s not a big deal, it’s not because the hotel is gone. Although public opinion will have some impact on the hotel, it’s not a big problem, so don’t worry about it.”

"I didn't think about that." Wen Ge took a step forward and helped her take off her apron, "I'm not making breakfast, I'll go out and buy some."

Xu Liqing freed the hair that was caught in the apron, and shook her head: "Are you hungry? I'll warm up the milk for you first."

Wen Ge didn't say anything more, just looked aside for a while, then quietly turned and walked out.

Wen Ge went to the entrance to change his shoes, Wen Ge took his key and stuffed it into his pocket, and quietly went out the door.

The snow has stopped, but the sky is foggy, and it still looks like it will snow at any time.

Wen Ge walked to the elevator only to realize that the elevator was broken and still under repair, turned around, turned back, and pushed open the door of the safe passage.

The stairwell was quiet, only the sound of footsteps stepping on the ground when people were walking, one after another, very regular.

Wen Ge looked down while holding the handrail of the stairs, and saw the bright morning light on the ground floor from a distance, which was vast and extremely bright.

I don't know which window was opened, the wind came in, and it was cold and biting.

Wen Ge couldn't help but gathered her neckline, tightened the scarf, and ran down at a faster pace.

In the empty stairwell, there suddenly came a somewhat uncertain voice that made Wen Ge very familiar: "Wen Ge?"

Wen Ge paused, leaning on the handrail of the stairs to look down.

Wen Shaoyuan was standing on the last step of the stairs, holding on to the handrail of the stairs with one hand, leaning slightly and sticking his head out to look at her.

His upturned face reflected the morning light, and when he saw her, his originally cold eyes burst into a slight smile: "Why did you come down?"

I don't know if it's because the morning light is too soft, that hazy moment seems to be in her dream, separated by a layer of fog, it seems that it will disappear at any time.

Wen Ge suddenly became flustered, the feeling of being unable to grasp swept over her whole body, making every cell of her tremble.

She ran down suddenly and quickly, her footsteps were extremely loud and hurried in the empty stairwell.

Wen Shaoyuan frowned, and called her nervously: "Slow down, I'll wait for you here."

Wen Ge's speed remained unabated, like a bird with its wings broken, unable to control its feet.

When she rushed to the last floor, she saw him standing at the stairs, frowning and disapproving but waiting for her with special concentration.

During this period of time, Wen Ge has actually realized that even if they finally decided to get together and tried to take steps, the two still love each other, but there is something that cannot go back, like a layer of separation. The veil does not prevent them from seeing each other, nor does it hinder their intimacy, but it exists so clearly and vaguely, which makes people feel uneasy and panicked.

Not enough love?Love, love, love very much.

Not trusting enough?Wen Ge felt that she could give her life to him.

It was precisely because it was just a feeling that Wen Ge felt the panic just now.

Like so many times, she dreamed of being with her uncle, only to realize that it was just a self-deceiving dream after waking up.Many times, she even seemed to be in a trance as if she had returned to the year when she was 13 years old. She hadn’t met Wen Shaoyuan yet. She was still the girl who would wake up from the cold on the wooden bed every morning, the one who could only watch through the rusty security window. A girl with a corner of the world.

And these are all a dream—a dream she painted for herself.
