You don’t want to eat any of this?

5 minutes later, Xia Ye came back.

When Jian Mingzhou saw his face, he couldn't help but smile at him.

"..." Xia Ye was confused by his smile and pushed up his glasses, "Why are you smiling at me?"

"It's nothing." Jian Mingzhou said gently, "I haven't seen you for five minutes, and I think you are quite kind."

"?" Xia Ye wanted to say something else, but the taxi arrived.

"Okay, let's go."

The topic was interrupted and the two got into the car.

The hotel booked is close to the city center.
Ten minutes later, Jian Mingzhou and Xia Ye checked in at the hotel. As usual, it was a double room.

Pushing the luggage into the room.Standard two beds with one bathroom, the room is bright and spacious.

Xia Ye said, "Let's go eat first."

Jian Mingzhou had just finished cooking a meal for himself and said in a pious mood, "Thank you for the hospitality."

Xia Ye turned around and said, "Who entertained you? AA."

Jian Mingzhou smiled tolerantly and stopped arguing.

After lunch, they went to the event site.

The event will be held at the Prudential Center.
As soon as Jian Mingzhou entered the hall, he saw the marble floor and the bright crystal lamp hanging above his head.

All responsible persons and authors have arrived one after another.

This Chinese Valentine's Day planning event not only includes Danmei cartoonists, but also girls' comics and shounen cartoonists.

When Jian Mingzhou participated in the Chinese Valentine's Day planning for the first time, he still didn't understand why there were "shounen comics" mixed in.After he saw dozens of mixed left and right peripherals from the protagonist group, he suddenly realized——

It turns out that shounen comics are just a bunch of random stuff!
As I thought about it, editors and teachers had already come forward: "Editor Xia, deputy editor Jian!"

Jian Mingzhou greeted them one by one.

He suddenly called out to him: "Jian! Deputy! Editor~"

He looked up and saw Mr. Su Qing, a girl cartoonist he knew, running over happily.Su Qing pulled him to take a group photo, "I'm going to start a new work recently, so let me take a picture of the reference character!"

Jian Mingzhou was flattered and asked, "Who is the boy?"

Su Qing was delighted, "White Moonlight heroine~"

He looked sideways:? ? ?

The following editor grabbed the person and apologized to Jian Mingzhou, "Sorry, sorry..." He turned around, "Teacher Su Qing, this is so rude!"

Jian Mingzhou was tolerant, "It's okay, it's just personality, gender..."

The editor continued in a low voice, "Bai Yueguang usually hangs up early..."

"..." He looked around:

You should question your gender! !
Send away the two people who are still in dispute over their character designs.
After Jian Mingzhou calmed down, Xia Ye emerged from the side,
"What are you doing? Playing with women."

"..."

He looked at Xia Ye, who had just escaped, and asked, "What about you?"

Summer leaves are serious, "I pass through thousands of grasses, but the summer leaves don't touch me."

Jian Mingzhou nodded, "Don't be afraid of thousands of flowers and grass. If you want to stay innocent, He Luchen."

"Ha." Xia Ye sneered.Just as he was about to say something, he smiled again, "Forget it, I won't argue with you."

Jian Mingzhou was suspicious: He was so tolerant, so weird.

Before he could figure out the other party's weirdness, his phone vibrated suddenly. When he opened it, he saw that it was Xie Jing.

[Scenery]: Uncle, are you here?

[Mingzhou]: At the event *^0^*
[Jing]: Oh, I’m disturbing your work.
Out of the corner of his eye, Xia Ye's eyes wandered over again.Jian Mingzhou suppressed his subtlety and walked away.

[Mingzhou]: No, I just finished greeting the person in charge and all the teachers, and I am taking a rest.
What's the matter, Xiaojing?

[Scenery]: I just came down from running, take a rest and come to see my uncle. [Big dog lying down]
The [big dog Papa] he sent was extremely fluffy.

Jian Mingzhou was instantly adorable!I had no resistance to this, so I substituted Xie Jing——

Suddenly, he remembered that when he came off the field that day, Xie Jing's tall figure fell down and leaned on his shoulder.Recalling it, there seems to be a thick heat blowing over my shoulders...

Heartbeat, breathing, and warmth rise at the same time.

While he was lost in thought, he heard Xia Ye calling him:
"Mingzhou, Teacher Xiaomu is here. Don't be chatting with me over there, come and say hello!"

"..."

He squeezed with his fist: Xia Ye's mouth!

Jian Mingzhou took a deep breath and walked over.There were several other teachers standing at the other end, and they gossiped in surprise:
"Does Deputy Editor Jian have a partner?"

"Yes, yes! It's Chinese Valentine's Day after all, and I still have to go to work and appease my partner!"

Jian Mingzhou calmly said, "...Editor Xia is telling a joke. Teacher Xiaomu, long time no see."

Xiaomu looked at the base of his ears and pursed her lips, "Hmm~oh oh."

While they were talking, they suddenly heard a shocking voice: "Ah!? 'You still have to go out to work during Chinese Valentine's Day'!"

"That's what Teacher Liu Fei said?"

Jian Mingzhou looked up and saw the person in charge talking on the phone. He almost jumped up: "On the way? Which road is it on?"

"What...my journey?? He knows how bumpy and long my journey is now!?"

Jian Mingzhou, "..."

Which Gonghuo master is this?
The expressions on his face were so colorful that Xiao Mu on the side explained, "Oh, Teacher Liu Fei, a teacher who is very independent in his own way and often skips various activities."

Jian Mingzhou looked over, "Like this..."

Xia Ye leaned over lightly, "The envy on his face is too obvious. Where did your love go?"

He solemnly said, "I am taking turns with my laziness."

"..."
-
However, laziness can only be a delusion.

The next day is Chinese Valentine's Day.
On the day of the event, there were many book fans in the exhibition hall downstairs, and the stalls and booths were also full of beautiful things.

The lobby upstairs is a meeting place for editors and authors. Authors can go down at different times to take photos and meet book fans.

Jian Mingzhou organizes activities on the second floor.

As expected, Teacher Liu Fei did not come, and the roar of the person in charge could be heard in the distance.Just as Xiaomu came over, he asked,
"what's the situation?"

"The person in charge asked Teacher Liu Fei why he didn't show his face. Teacher Liu Fei said, 'Aren't my books more beautiful than my people?'"

Xiaomu chuckled, "Hey, it's quite free and easy~ I also wonder when I can be so careless about the life and death of others. I also want to go on a date with my boyfriend today!"

Jian Mingzhou exclaimed, "Teacher Xiaomu has a boyfriend."

"That's right." She said, holding her face, "In order to meet today, he should be lining up outside the venue downstairs!"

"..." Jian Mingzhou opened his eyes wide:
You don’t seem to care about your boyfriend’s life or death! "Where's Deputy Editor Jian, aren't you going on a date?" Xiaomu asked suddenly.

Before Jian Mingzhou could recover his thoughts, he subconsciously blurted out, "I don't have a boyfriend yet."

After the words fell, the two of them froze at the same time.

His eyes trembled slightly and he added, "...with his girlfriend."

Xia Ye passed by and heard another strange laugh, "Haha~!"

...
The activity was busy all day and ended at eight o'clock.

Jian Mingzhou stayed behind to clear the place with them, tidying up the bookstalls and setting up various character signs.When he put it away, he saw a character he liked, it was Gong from an apocalyptic comic——

Tall and handsome, the belt tied makes him angry.

While there was no one around, he called Xia Ye, "Quick, take a photo of me and Li Pai."

Xia Ye took a picture of him and laughed again, "Oh, you like this type, tall, fierce, aggressive, dog type... Why does it look a bit like yours?"

"..."

It's okay if Xia Ye doesn't say it. The more he talks about it, the more similar he becomes.

Jian Mingzhou quickly calmed down, "Don't talk nonsense." He picked up the paper figure with one hand, "...How can Xiaojing be so weak?"

"Ha ha."

It's past nine o'clock when I finish my work.
Jian Mingzhou also remembered to buy specialties. After asking others, he went to a nearby place and bought a box of banana crisps and brought them back to the hotel.

——It’s a specialty and quite sweet.

Seeing this, Xia Ye chuckled again.

Jian Mingzhou ignored his expression and went to take a shower first.

When he came out after washing, he saw two calls from Xie Jing on his phone, and then a WeChat message.

It’s already this hour and I’ve made two phone calls. Is there something urgent?
Jian Mingzhou sat beside the bed and clicked:

[Scenery]: Uncle, I received the special product.

[King]: I like it very much^^
[Scenery]: [Picture]
……etc.What specialty? ?

Jian Mingzhou quickly opened the picture and found a familiar box of almond chocolate!

He sat up straight in an instant: Damn it!
What the hell? ? ? ?Xia Ye and He Luchen should be the ones he left to send and receive. Why...

A saucy smile suddenly came to mind.

Jian Mingzhou suddenly understood, and his heart was in turmoil:
——Xia Ye! ! !
And sending chocolates or something in time for the Chinese Valentine's Day is just...

He buried his palms, feeling ashamed.There is already a feeling of boredom coming up from behind...

For a moment, he took a deep breath and calmed down: It doesn't matter.

He also has a boomerang.

Jian Mingzhou turned his head and glanced in the direction of the bathroom, where Xia Ye was cleaning his soul.The sound of gurgling water came, and he thought in his mind——

Since Xie Jing received it, Lusen should also be tasting it at this time.

Jian Mingzhou thought for a while, composed himself and answered the message.

[Mingzhou]: I was afraid that the chocolate would melt, so I sent it back directly.There is also a banana crisp, I will bring it back to you tomorrow. ^0^
The message from the other side was answered very quickly.

[Jing]: Thank you, uncle. [Big dog arch]
He was so adorable again! …Well, forget it.

Not long after the message was sent, the bathroom door opened.

Xia Ye came out after taking a shower.
Jian Mingzhou looked over faintly, his eyes met, and he paused and stepped back.

"…What are you doing? Your eyes are dangerous."

Jian Mingzhou closed his eyes and put on a gentle look, "It must be that you have been dazzled by the hot water for a long time."

Xia Ye walked over suspiciously, "Really?"

"Yes." Jian Mingzhou pulled up the quilt and lay down, "Go to sleep and welcome a better tomorrow together."

……
The next day, the train started at around eight o'clock.

Jian Mingzhou and Xia Ye got into the car.Chinese Valentine's Day has just passed, and the festive atmosphere is still retained in the carriage:
There were many returning couples, and there were also luggage with roses in them.

Xia Ye sat down and said, "You can still catch the tail of Qixi Festival when I go back today." He said and looked sideways, "Don't you have an appointment today? With yours, right?"

...What kind of quantifier is "only"?
Jian Mingzhou was now lying down, "Yes, yes."

Xia Ye choked on her prepared words.

At this moment, the phone vibrated.Jian Mingzhou clicked on it and saw the message from Xie Jing:

[Scenery]: Uncle, are you back?
【Mingzhou】: I just got on the train and will be back in about two hours.

[Jing]: I'll pick you up.

[Mingzhou]: It’s okay, no need^▽^
After a few seconds, a voice message popped up.

Probably Xie Jing felt that there were too many words, so he simply said: "Come and pick you up, we will go directly to have lunch and then go shopping."

A slightly laughing voice suddenly came from the receiver, and a trace of electricity seemed to run through his fingertips.

Jian Mingzhou calmed down and replied "Okay".

Xia Ye looked sideways, "Oh, I can't wait to meet you for a moment."

Jian Mingzhou said softly, "Why aren't Editor He here? Are you making soup at home?"

Xia Ye choked for the second time and finally closed her mouth.

...
After a two-hour drive, we arrived at the station at around ten o'clock.

After getting off the car, a blast of cool air hit me.The ground was still a little damp, and it did rain on the night of Chinese Valentine's Day.

Even the platform was washed clean and white.

Xia Ye said goodbye to him, "Go ahead."

Jian Mingzhou waved his hand and turned around to go out.

As soon as I stepped out of the platform, I saw a familiar figure standing there.Xie Jing stood there, with deep and cold features, and his height, which was a little taller than an ordinary person, was particularly eye-catching.

Seeing him come out, Xie Jing's eyes dropped, "Uncle."

Jian Mingzhou thought of the box of chocolates yesterday, and was originally worried that the other party would find it subtle.But now that Xie Jing's attitude was as usual, he also calmed down.
"Have you been waiting for a long time, Xiaojing?"

"It hasn't been long." Xie Jing said, handing over the cup in his hand, "To cool down this morning, I bought you a hot drink."

Jian Mingzhou said, "Oh, thank you."

Xie Jing took the luggage naturally and walked in front.

The warmth of the hot drink penetrates from under the paper cup to your fingertips.
Jian Mingzhou took a sip, stopped for a moment, and suddenly paused:
It's hot chocolate.

The author has something to say:
Xie Jing: The big dog is haunted^^
