MTL - His Marriage Partner is Scheming-Chapter 47

In the lonely winter night, the street lights elongate two figures who are almost indistinguishable from each other.

Chi Xueyan couldn't help but think that this is what it feels like to embrace the person she loves.

Unlike the gentle embrace of parents at a young age, so are the occasional celebratory hugs with friends.

He stretched out his hands to surround the person who was close at hand, his fingers subconsciously grabbed the jacket on the back, and his breath was buried in the other person's shoulders.

It was as if snowflakes from the sky had fallen into the grass on the ground, fell along the shape of the grass growth, and melted gently on it.

This feeling is as special as a kiss.

It was the same person who made him understand the feeling of kissing last time.

It's just that He Qiao was more calm and composed at that time.

At this moment, it was like a student who encountered a new problem, and couldn't find the most appropriate solution for a long time.

Chi Xueyan clearly felt the kind of clumsiness mixed with helplessness, and the people around him couldn't find the right words to express their emotions for a while, only the heartbeat deep in the chest became extraordinarily vivid, and lost its proper and calm order.

In the quiet night when the crowds are gone, this seems to be the only sound left in the whole world.

So Chi Xueyan, who was buried on his shoulder, spoke softly, with a muffled smile: "Your heartbeat is so loud."

Compared with those "I love you" that seem to be easy to say, he prefers to listen to the most instinctive heartbeat.

That is an answer that cannot be faked.

In his voice that sounded again, the person who suddenly became clumsy because of that confession seemed to have finally come to his senses.

In the next second, Chi Xueyan was even closer to that noisy heartbeat.

The person being hugged by him no longer hesitated, and wrapped his arms around his waist vigorously, cherishing it as he wished.

He Qiao said: "When I saw you across the road that day, I really wanted to hug you."

"What day?"

"The morning of my birthday."

Chi Xueyan recalled the morning when she was about to go on an adventure on the university campus.

He Qiao, who was wearing his coat, stood on the opposite sidewalk and was distracted until he was woken up by the phone because he was too lazy to cross the road one more time.

It turned out that he was thinking about it at that moment.

Today he puts on the coat he lent again.

Time is always so wonderful.

"It's almost my birthday now." Chi Xueyan said in his arms, "You don't need to take me on an adventure, just cut the cake for me."

The meticulous He Qiao should be able to divide the cake more beautifully and keep every cream flower in full bloom.

"good."

"No more trying to be nice to me, it's fine now."

Even during the agreed marriage period before they fell in love, the way He Qiao treated him was impeccable.

"good."

Chi Xueyan laughed again: "Are you the only one who can say this word?"

"No." He Qiao answered his teasing seriously, and asked instead, "Are you cold?"

"It's not cold." Chi Xueyan also replied seriously, "But I want to go home."

He Qiao didn't say anything more.

He let go of the person in his arms, and then tightly held Chi Xueyan's hand that was slightly chilled by the wind.

On the way home, the intertwined fingers flowed with heat, which even faded in winter.

New Year's Eve.

It was rare that Sheng Xiaoyue didn't stay in front of the TV and concentrate on watching the soap opera at 8 o'clock, but dangled by the window from time to time, watching the movement outside.

Until the familiar sound of a car came from far and near, her eyes lit up suddenly, and she hurried out.

The black luxury car stopped in front of the house, and after a while, the driver continued to drive the car into the garage.

The two figures shrouded in moonlight looked so close.

Sheng Xiaoyue looked across the garden where flowers were still blooming in winter, and saw the hands holding each other at the corners of their clothes.

We have been married for half a year, and the relationship seems to be better than before.

She couldn't help laughing, standing by the door with warm yellow lights, hastily waved to the two people walking side by side.

He Qiao's company was on holiday a few days ago, and Chi Xueyan's clinic didn't officially start the Spring Festival holiday until after get off work tonight.

This was the first time the two lived together at home after their marriage.

Sheng Xiaoyue asked the servants at home to clean up He Qiao's room early on, and put in brand new daily necessities for two people. The sun warmed the newly washed sheets and quilts.

In order to commemorate this special Spring Festival when a family of four became a family of five, she didn't even ask anyone to post the Spring Festival couplets that had been prepared, and wanted to wait for the two of them to post them together.

She wanted to see how Koike put up the Spring Festival couplets.

It's a pity that it's too late today. He has been working for another day. He must be tired and can only wait for tomorrow.

Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, during the day when there is nothing to do, it is just right to do these trivial things.

When Chi Xueyan and He Qiao entered the door, they were first pulled by Sheng Xiaoyue to ask questions, and then exchanged simple greetings with He Huaili and He Xiao who were already at home on vacation.

There was a scene of peace and happiness in the beautiful and spacious house.

The feeling that the whole family was by her side made Sheng Xiaoyue not stop smiling all night.

When Chi Xueyan talked about a small patient who was working overtime just now, even those slightly unfamiliar dental terms sounded particularly interesting.

However, she was still very measured, and after sending the two to He Qiao's bedroom, she smiled and let them go free.

"He Qiao, take Xiaochi for a stroll by yourself. You have also cleaned the game room. Does Xiaochi like to play games?"

She carefully advised: "If you are hungry, go to the snack room. I bought a lot of delicious food, or ask auntie to get up and make it."

"Understood, Mom." He Qiao responded, "Good night."

Chi Xueyan also said good night to her.

When he watched Sheng Xiaoyue leave, he thought, maybe he won't call her Auntie Xiaoyue again soon.

In such a warm room, mother seems to be a more appropriate title.

It has nothing to do with blood relationship or marriage, he just wants to address this gentle mother in the same way as He Qiao.

Besides, Chi Xueyan's parents had happily gone abroad to watch the aurora.

When I graduated from high school, the family of three went to see the Aurora together. At that time, it was Chi Xueyan's impromptu idea, but now he has become an abandoned light bulb.

As expected, when he was young, he smiled and looked at the couple who tried to learn light kung fu and he worked hard for a year.

Looking at the bedroom in front of him, which was specially arranged by Sheng Xiaoyue to be warm and romantic, similar in style to the wedding room, Chi Xueyan sighed silently in his heart.

Speaking of which, this was the first time he and He Qiao slept in the same bed.

Although the relationship has been confirmed, the two still live in their own rooms in the wedding room.

There are always steps in love, it is not about going to bed immediately after kissing.

He prefers to do what he wants to do in an atmosphere that comes naturally.

Because every stage of love is interesting.

Now Chi Xueyan no longer doubts Su Yu's statement.

For example, there are lovers who have no real close contact, but because of the relationship of a half-year marriage on the surface, they have to share the same bed all the time during the long Spring Festival holiday, or quietly separate someone to sleep on the sofa.

He thought it was fun.

I don't know what He Qiao would think.

Chi Xueyan looked at the people around him, trying to find clues from his expressions, but only saw He Qiao's eyes move away from the dark wine-red bed.

He looked very calm.

"Do you want to wash up and rest? Or take a look around?"

The tone is also quite calm.

Chi Xueyan then shifted his attention: "Do you have a special game room?"

He Qiao nodded and said, "Do you want to see it?"

"Yes." He walked out of the bedroom first, with a casual tone, "Is there any fun game?"

The former He Qiao didn't know that he was a dentist, nor had he seen him working.

And Chi Xueyan had never seen this He Qiao playing games.

He wants to take a look.

He Qiao fell behind him, reached out to turn off the lights and the door, before the lights went out, his gaze seemed to subconsciously glance over the bed.

The rich dark burgundy was left alone in the night.

This soft and comfortable big bed never waited for its two owners with different moods tonight.

Because Chi Xueyan suddenly discovered that the game He Qiao picked was really fun.

He seldom played games before. Compared with chasing happiness in the virtual world, he prefers to experience it in reality. Anyway, there is basically nothing he dare not do.

But in any case, in reality, it is impossible for him to stimulate gun battles with people in the chaotic crime city, and to evade pursuit frantically amidst the roaring sirens.

While waiting for the host to load the game and read the archive, Chi Xueyan looked around the game room full of game discs and surroundings, and asked He Qiao: "How is your game playing skill?"

He doesn't play often, so the operation level must be average.

He Qiao said that he doesn't like to play games, but Chi Xueyan always feels that just because he doesn't like to play doesn't mean he doesn't know how to play.

As expected, He Qiao replied, "It's okay."

As soon as he finished speaking, the game was loaded, and the first picture that appeared on the super-large-screen TV was a car that had fallen to pieces, and the protagonist of the game who got out of the car was clutching his bleeding head howling.

Seeing this, Chi Xueyan was silent for a second, and then cast a look full of deep meaning.

"..." He Qiao paused, tried to recall, and explained, "The car overturned because of a temporary phone call."

He hasn't opened this game for a long time.

The last time he played was at the end of the blind date. He still lives in this house and has not found a reasonable opportunity to change for the time being, so he can only maintain his hobby of "He Qiao" every day.

When he was playing the game calmly, he suddenly received a call from Chi Xueyan.

Without noticing it for a while, the car that was originally driving smoothly on the screen rolled straight down the slope, and rolled 360 degrees in the air, setting off dust and smoke all over the sky.

Now that I think about it, after receiving that phone call, the place where the sky was full of dust and smoke seemed to be more than just a game.

Chi Xueyan smiled and nodded: "Well, I believe it."

His voice sounded skeptical of the exact opposite.

He Qiao thought for a while, but didn't know how to continue explaining, so he could only ask him, "Do you want to compete?"

"Race driving?"

"Fly a plane," he said. "There's a special flight module that you might like, and I haven't played it before."

So it's fair play.

When the plane appeared on the screen, accompanied by the very realistic game guidance narration, Chi Xueyan thought, He Qiao knew him very well, and he really liked this module.

And what He Qiao said just now is not bad, obviously too modest.

Because Chi Xueyan was not familiar with the basic operation methods of this type of console game, he asked the other party to play it for the first time.

He watched He Qiao control the plane with the handle, smoothly bypassing unfamiliar obstacles one after another, and when he arrived at the destination and landed smoothly, he obviously felt that it couldn't be easier.

As a result, when the game controller that seemed to be useful was in his hand, within ten seconds of departure, the plane crashed into a tall building unexpectedly, crashing the plane and killing everyone.

He even looked at the flight route more than He Qiao.

Chi Xueyan's originally lazy sitting posture suddenly became more serious, and immediately started the second attempt.

At first, the flight leaderboard recording local data was blank, only the record left by He Qiaogang.

Later, Chi Xueyan's record after successfully passing the challenge finally appeared.

During this period, He Qiao didn't take the initiative to teach him, but just stood by patiently, watched him try again and again, and answered his occasional questions.

There are many different training items in this flight module, and the difficulty can be selected.

Chi Xueyan, who was gradually immersed in it and found fun, was no longer satisfied with the most basic difficulty, and began to challenge more difficult content.

Every time he broke the record he left, he couldn't help but look aside excitedly.

And the person sitting beside him all the time was also staring at him with a smile.

The night just flowed away quietly.

Chi Xueyan is used to going to bed early and getting up early every day after work, and doesn't often stay up late. Although she is very interested in this game tonight, after maintaining a high degree of concentration for a long time, fatigue and sleepiness come faster.

He fell asleep unconsciously.

Immersed in grotesque dreams, he saw free and distant trail clouds hanging high in the untouchable sky, sending only a light breeze to blow over him who was waiting alone in the world.

When the wind blows, the tiny him seems to be washed by invisible warm water, and he seems to be embraced by a familiar transparent breath.

Long, tight hugs.

When Chi Xueyan woke up from the dream, she realized that she was really leaning in an embrace.

In the early morning, the gray-blue sky filled the whole room, and together with the hazy daylight, it was the game screen with bright colors.

The big screen in front is still on, and there is no game music coming out, probably muted.

The screen stays on the flight leaderboard.

Two flight records with exactly the same minutes and seconds are tied for first place on the list.

One was earlier, and it was Chi Xueyan's best score when he was in high spirits.

One later, when he should have fallen asleep.

And the person who left the last record is also falling asleep now.

Chi Xueyan raised his face very gently, and caught a glimpse of He Qiao's side face soaked in sunlight, his handsome lines, and the light blue particles floating in the air, the dust of time.

He didn't bother him, just quietly looked at the person who held him in his arms, and looked at him seriously for a long time.

It was like seeing eternity.
