Xie Fei felt like he was listening to heavenly scriptures, he, a man, scales? Or the scales of a dragon?
At this moment, his state of mind and Yan Lai’s began to overlap – after eighteen years of being a human, now he became a dragon?!
“In fact, the dragon you saw in the garden at the beginning was an illusion made by the scales.” As if reading his mind, Yu Li explained, “It has been lurking in your body for a long time, but it has only condensed and formed today. .”
So that’s how it is.
Xie Fei breathed a sigh of relief. This answer is better than growing scales.
He remembered the dragon that changed his destiny, and thought of the black-clothed man in his dream as soon as the scale took shape, he could not help but link the two.
Does the scale belong to the former owner, who turned out to be a dragon? !
“I can only tell you that this is a gift, and it does no harm to you.”
Hearing Yu Li’s answer, Xie Fei realized that he had asked the doubts in his heart.
Seeing that the other party did not want to say more, he knew that he would not get an answer if he asked further.
Suddenly, a shadow was cast in front of his eyes, and a heavy weight on his shoulders——Yu Li leaned forward, bent over and hugged him.
Xie Fei was startled, “Mr. Yu Li , Yu Li-ge ?”
Yu Li’s muffled voice came: “You still owe me an apology.”
The scent of sandalwood and bamboo mingled between his breath, and Xie Fei absentmindedly ‘Hmmm’ed.
“Then, don’t say anything now.”
Xie Fei shut up immediately.
The overlapping shadows of the two were projected on the ground, looked intimate.
Xie Fei’s heart was inexplicably went out of control, when he heard Yu Li sigh lightly: “I’m so tired.”
The voice seemed to be so light, it seemed like an illusion.
Xie Fei had an intuition that Yu Li’s so-called “tired” was not so simple in the ordinary sense.
He felt soft in his heart, as if being bewitched, he gently encircled the other.
It was a soothing hug, and perhaps a little ambiguous. In the shadow of the sun, neither of the two spoke.
After two days, Xie Fei found a small, light red spot under his throat, which gradually turned into a crescent shape within the following days.
Occasionally, when he looked in the mirror, he would think, ‘Fortunately, the scales are on his neck, if they were on his forehead, would he not be a bao gong[1]?’
[1] 包拯–Lord Bao or Judge Bao, fictional nickname of Bao Zheng, Northern Song official renowned for his honesty. ]
BAO GONG
When Xie Fei’s voice had completely recovered and the cleanup of the inn was coming to an end, Yu Li suddenly approached him.
At that time, he was laying bricks in the corner, covered in filth, when he heard someone behind him ask, “What are you doing?”
Xie Fei’s movement of brushing cement stalled, he turned back and pushed the person away, and looked nervously at the cell phone set up at his feet.
“yooooo, it’s a blue child, my dog nose seems to smell the sweetness of the food.”
“It feels like the anchor is caught doing adultery like 23333”
“Who is talking? The voice is good, but according to the law, it should be an big ugly.”
” I think the voice is very familiar, I seem to have heard it from somewhere…”
“Its, a lot like our Yu Li’s voice.”
…
Xie Fei’s taut strings were loosened, and without a greeting he turned off the outdoor camera set up not far away – it was a bargain he had just bought back, after a discount of only 299.
“I was scared to death…” Xie Fei took off his mask and stared at the dirty fingerprints on Yu Li’s clothes with shame. “I was on air and you almost got in the picture.”
Yu Li was not angry and asked him: “Bricklaying is also broadcasted?”
“I want to build a small brick kiln to make a new batch of green tiles and replace the old ones that are broken on the roof.” Xie Fei wiped his hands with his apron and said with great awareness, “Why don’t you change your clothes, I’ll wash them for you.”
Yu Li did not deny it and looked at the archway in the backyard connected to the garden, “I brought back a few sets of clothes, later Xiang Fei will send them over, you try them on.”
“Try on clothes for what?”
“The dinner party I mentioned to you before is today, why, don’t you want to go?”
Xie Fei was instantly pleased: “I want to go!”
On their way back to the room, Xie Fei learned that Yu Li had endorsed a certain travel app and there was a signing ceremony before the dinner.
” Not long after they went upstairs, Xiang Fei came over with three sets of suits wrapped in dust covers, Yu Li took the clothes and casually threw them on the bed, and thoughtlessly surveyed Xie Fei’s room, “They are sponsored by the brand, they should fit your size, you go to the bathroom-
The voice stopped abruptly, only because he turned his head to see Xie Fei was taking off his bodysuit, with the other party’s movements, the white T in the bodysuit was also lifted up with it, revealing the waist and abdomen and the clearly visible ribs under the skin, and …… a little pink.
Yu Li: !!!
When Xie Fei was freed from the sweatshirt, he saw Yu Li turn around in a panic and take a step forward – “bang” a loud sound, Yu Li’s front and the closet crashed.
Seeing that the door of the closet had made a big crack, Xie Fei ran over anxiously, “Yu Li-ge, are you okay?”
But Yu Li actually covered his head and insisted on turning his back on him, stumbling and saying, “You, don’t come over!”
“But ……”
“Are you wearing clothes?”
Xie Fei was baffled and looked down at the white T on his body, “Wearing, ah.”
Yu Li used his left light to confirm, and then he was willing to turn his face.
Xie Fei saw that there was no pain on Yu Li’s face, and thought that the monster blood could handle it, but he was surprised how the other party’s face was red.
Just about to ask, he saw Yu Li look solemn, opening mouth for quality education:
“You should not be too frivolous in the future.”
“Do not move to take off your clothes in front of me.”
“Have some self-respect.”
Xie Fei: “……”
All right, what else can he say? Except to meekly hold the clothes and head to the bathroom.
When he was fastening the buttons, Xie Fei looked at the crescent-shaped birthmark on his neck in the mirror, which happened to be in the depression under his throat, seemed to hold a curve of the moon.
When he put on his suit, he looked at his reflection in the mirror and felt familiar and unfamiliar – in the original world, he had never been so formally dressed, as if he had suddenly grown five years older.
Xie Fei raised his hand and flicked the fine bangs on his forehead, humming an out-of-tune song: “Comb your hair like an adult, put on a handsome suit, and see you later, it will be more beautiful than imagined…
” Ugly, change one.”
When Xie Fei walked out of the bathroom, Yu Li commented.
Xie Fei couldn’t understand, but he was asked by the other party, so he obeyed.
It wasn’t until he switched to the third set, Yu Li was finally satisfied: “That’s it.”
Xie Fei found that compared to the first two sets, the third set did not look too mature, but rather had a youthful and juvenile look, which was indeed the most suitable for him.
He thought, isn’t Yu Li’s aesthetic good? Why do you always like to wear colorful clothes when it’s your turn?
“Do you know how to tie a bow tie?” Yu Li suddenly asked.
A formal suit usually has a tie, but Xie Fei was not good at it.
Yu Li lifted his chin, “Come on.”
In the process of tying the bow ties, the two inevitably stood very close. Xie Fei’s gaze shifted from Yu Li’s slender fingers to the other’s handsome face. The latter was aware of it and asked calmly, “Why are you always staring at me?”
Xie Fei didn’t feel embarrassed about being caught and said with a grin, “I found a big handsome guy in your eyes.”
Yu Li frowned, seemingly not satisfied with the answer, and was about to speak when he heard Xie Fei turn his words around: “But the big handsome guy is still not as handsome as you!”
Yu Li’s expression stuck there, up and down[2],it looked very comical, the room resounded with Xie Fei’s pleasant laughter.
[2] Up and down – 不上不下 – to be in a dilemma.]
Half an hour later, the agent came to pick them up.
The first time he saw Xie Fei, the agent’s face was full of smiles. Even if he knew that Xie Fei had no intention of being in the entertainment industry, he still persevered in lobbying, and finally annoyed Yu Li.
“Do you think the money I made is not enough for your commission? What are you dissatisfied with me?”
The agent choked and shut up unhappily.
Xie Fei did not want to show up due to a lot of media at the signing ceremony.
After arriving at the destination, he waited in the background for an hour before moving to the banquet hall of the same hotel with Yu Li.
The whole banquet hall was lavishly furnished without losing its elegance, and the vestibule was fragrant.
Although Xie Fei was attending this kind of dinner for the first time, he was not constricted. he did not scout the guests in the banquet hall, and listening to Yu Li whispering the identity of those people.
Suddenly, a teasing voice rang out, “Yo, our big star is here.”
Xie Fei looked at the voice, the other party was a handsome man of twenty-five years old and up, with a pair of peach blossom eyes and thin lips, looking a kind of thin affectionate flirt.
The man came with his arms around a young beauty, his gaze stayed on Xie Fei’s face, his enthusiasm would not make people feel disrespectful, “Little friend, haven’t I seen you before?”
Xie Fei was not sure about the identity of a man, so of course he would not introduce himself rashly. He observed Yu Li first, and saw that the other party did not mean to reject him, but his eyes were familiar, so he smiled openly: “Hello, I am— —”
The last half of the sentence was caught in his throat because Xie Fei saw someone, an unexpected person.
The man was about his age, not tall, with delicate features, it is the book Koi, the protagonist of the world, and the person who drove the orignal owner into the magpie’s nest.
What’s even more frightening is that the other party also found him.
The two eyes crossed, and the air seemed to extend an electric current, crackling and sparking.
Xie Yao’s eyes grew wider and wider, and half a day later, he gritted his teeth and recited a name: “Xie, Fei, Cui!”
The author has something to say:
A Li: I’m tired of waiting for you.
Fei Fei: Oh, another name is exposed…
