Surrender II

Fang Mingyan stepped on the meal time and entered the door, just as Zhuo Yue came down from the stairs, she was wearing a clean light yellow pajamas with the neckline pulled up specially to cover up those embarrassing marks on her neck.

The eyes met, and the people on the stairs greeted first: "You are back."

"Are you asleep?" the man asked while taking off his coat and handing it to Zhou Chi.

"Well, I just woke up." Zhuo Yue replied very naturally.

Fang Mingyan's eyes paused for a moment on his energetic face, then he looked away quietly, and said, "Come over for dinner."

Seeing the food, Zhuo Yue's stomach churns for a while. After barely taking two mouthfuls, she put down her chopsticks and got up: "I don't feel well in my stomach, go upstairs first..."

"Sit down and eat some more with me." The man's attitude was gentle when he spoke, but he had the aura not to refuse.

Zhuo Yue sat down at the dining table again.Zhou Chi refilled a bowl of hot chicken soup and placed it in front of him.He took a symbolic sip and stopped touching it.

Fang Mingyan knew very well that his stomach discomfort was largely due to psychological factors, so he didn't force him, he ate his fill slowly, picked up the napkin to wipe his mouth, and said, "Go and wash the dishes."

Zhuo Yue was a little surprised.Although he did dishes and chores in Hanguan, he did them on his own initiative, and it was the first time a man asked him to do so.He wanted to go back to the room after washing, but was stopped by the other party, and they started watching TV together.The NBA basketball game on the screen was wonderful, but he always lost his mind unconsciously, staring at one place for a long time in a daze.It was ten o'clock in the evening before Fang Mingyan let him go back to his room to sleep.

They said it was sleep, but in fact, Zhuo Yue couldn't sleep at all.When a person calms down, he will think of Huang Renbiao's disgusting face, and it seems that the disgusting feeling when he touched him still remains on his body.The bed under him seemed to overlap with the filthy bed in the hotel, and everything he had experienced turned into torture, like hands strangling his neck tightly, making him suffocate.After tossing and tossing for a long time, he finally fell into a drowsy sleep, and woke up in a cold sweat within a few minutes.He turned over and got out of bed, opened the window suddenly, and the coolness that poured in made him calm down.He didn't turn on the light either, just sat blankly on the sofa by the window by the moonlight.

When Fang Mingyan pushed the door and entered, he saw such a scene.Under the light and quiet moonlight, the windows were wide open, and the night wind was cold.Zhuo Yue was curled up on the single sofa in thin pajamas, like a small animal hiding to lick its wound, looking at him with frightened eyes.

The man turned on the light, walked over to close the window, put his hands on the armrest of the sofa, and said, "Can't sleep?"

Zhuo Yue didn't expect him to come to the room, and at this moment, he was imprisoned between his body and the sofa by the other party, and said awkwardly: "I just... just got up to go to the bathroom, and saw that the moon is quite bright tonight, so..."

"So open the windows to watch the moon at two o'clock in the middle of the night?" Fang Mingyan narrowed his eyes slightly, "You are really interested."

This kind of reason made up at random is simply ridiculous.Zhuo Yue rummaged in her head for a long time but couldn't think of any other reasonable cover-up, so she kept silent.

"I remember telling you to call me when you can't sleep or wake up from a nightmare." The man looked at him with those black eyes.

He bowed his head and said softly, "I don't want to disturb your rest."

Fang Mingyan sighed helplessly, carried him back to the bed with his long arms, and then lay down beside him.Seeing Zhuo Yue supporting her upper body with her elbows and staring at herself with wide eyes, she couldn't help laughing: "Is this expression afraid that I will take the opportunity to eat your tofu?"

"...I can sleep alone." He said embarrassedly.

"Since I left at noon to just now, have you been asleep for more than half an hour?" The man choked him with one sentence, and directly grabbed his arm that was supporting his body.Zhuo Yue, who had lost her fulcrum, lay down, and gave way to the outside somewhat awkwardly.

It was originally a single bed, and it was a bit crowded when two men were lying on it, and Zhuo Yue almost rolled down when he moved out like this.Fang Mingyan quickly grabbed the waist and hooked it inward, but his body was pressed even tighter, and his face flushed immediately.I didn't know what to say, I just lowered my head and shrank into the quilt.

"Bonjoy."

Hearing him calling her, Zhuo Yue raised her face slightly.With such an intimate relative posture, the moment he raised his head, their lips almost touched.Breathing staggered, the handsome face is close at hand.The four eyes met, those eyes stared at him, like the softly shining stars scattered in the night, making people unable to look away.

In the quiet room, there was only the slight sound of the clock on the wall.Every minute and every second, this ambiguity crossed my heart.

So close, so close that you can see yourself from each other's pupils, so close that you can feel a tiny air current even in the blink of an eye, so close that even if you don't do anything, your heartbeat will be flustered by the gaze.

At that moment, in Fang Mingyan's dimly lit eyes, some suppressed emotion seemed to break out of the cocoon.

Little by little, getting closer.

Zhuo Yue's gaze trembled, and she slowly closed her eyes.

He thought it would be a kiss.

However, the kiss never fell.

Zhuo Yue heard a chuckle, he opened his eyes and looked at the man with a smile on his lips, and turned around in embarrassment.

The lights went out and the room darkened again.Fang Mingyan stretched out his hand to hug him from behind, and said softly behind his ear, "Sleep at ease, I'll be here with you."

"It's even harder to fall asleep this way..." He said with hot cheeks.

"Close your eyes." The man behind him held his waist and let him lean on him loosely, his voice became softer, "Do you know the legend of the puppet knight? For children who often have nightmares, you can put a Just a doll. Every night, it will become a knight to fight for you while you are asleep, defeating the nightmare." He paused, then said softly, "I can be your doll knight."

Heart skipped a beat.Zhuo Yue moved her lips, but did not make a sound.

The long eyelashes covered his eyes, and the warm breath fell on his neck, making him calm down peacefully.As if caught in a Gu, the heartbeats began to slowly synchronize, and the chest also rose and fell with the rhythm of the person's breathing.Both time and space have become a virtual background, as if floating in the boundless universe, only the person who hugged him behind him accompanied, embraced and protected him.He finally relaxed completely, allowing himself to sink into the warm chest behind him.

When Zhuo Yue woke up the next morning, the man had already left.He sat on the bed for a while, then got up and went downstairs.
