Zhan Weiyang slept until about three in the afternoon. When he woke up, he was a little confused for a while, not knowing what time it was or where he was.
He turned over and found Pei Qing sleeping beside him, looking like he hadn’t woken up yet.
After hesitating for a while, Zhan Weiyang stretched out a hand towards Pei Qing, wanting to touch his nose lightly with his finger but afraid of waking him up, so the finger finally fell into the air, and he could feel Pei Qing’s warm breath.
Suddenly, Pei Qing raised one hand and grabbed Zhan Weiyang’s hand, then squeezed his fingers tightly.
Zhan Weiyang was startled, but seeing that Pei Qing didn’t even open his eyes, he asked uncertainly, “Are you awake?”
Pei Qing closed her eyes and said, “I’m not awake.”
Zhan Weiyang immediately said, “How can you talk to me if you’re not awake?”
Pei Qing’s mouth curled up slightly and said, “Guess.”
Zhan Weiyang knew that Pei Qing must have woken up. He tried to get his hand away but failed, so he simply got up, turned over and sat on Pei Qing.
Pei Qing was pressed by him and made a slight ‘Hng–’ sound and finally opened his eyes and looked at Zhan Weiyang.
Zhan Weiyang said, “Are you awake this time?”
Pei Qing said, “You woke me up, you’re getting heavier.”
Zhan Weiyang believed the latter half of the sentence and said, “Really?”
Pei Qing nodded.
Zhan Weiyang reached down and touched the flesh on his stomach, feeling that it seemed to be a bit looser. He thought it was probably because he had been eating a lot at home during the holidays and had gained weight, especially since Zhan Weiguang liked drinking milk tea, having a cup almost every afternoon.
He was a little worried and said, “I can’t drink milk tea anymore.”
Pei Qing asked him, “Why?”
Zhan Weiyang said, “If I get fatter, you won’t be able to hold me anymore.”
Pei Qing smiled, “What do you want me to hold you for?”
Zhan Weiyang thought about it and came up with a clever answer, saying, “Anything.” After that, he looked at Pei Qing with a smile on his face.
Pei Qing couldn’t help laughing. He stretched out his hand to press Zhan Weiyang’s neck, pushed his head down, and kissed his lips.
Zhan Weiyang felt that the kiss was sweet, but it was a pity that the kiss didn’t last too long. He heard someone knocking on the door outside.
Pei Qing stopped and patted Zhan Weiyang’s lower back calmly, asking him to get off him, and asked loudly, “Who is it?”
Zhan Weiguang’s voice came from outside, “Qing ge, are you still sleeping?”
Pei Qing said, “I’m up.” He didn’t take off his clothes, and got out of bed and walked to the door and opened it.
Zhan Weiguang asked, “Is Zhan Weiyang still sleeping?” He looked inside as he said this.
Zhan Weiyang was still lying on the bed, covering half of his face with the quilt, with only two round eyes exposed and looking at Zhan Weiguang.
Pei Qing said, “He’s up too.”
Zhan Weiguang said, “Want to come down for milk tea?”
“Can you still buy milk tea today?” Pei Qing asked casually.
Zhan Weiguang said, “Everything nearby is closed. I bought the bagged milk tea at the supermarket and made it myself. Come on.” After that, Zhan Weiguang went downstairs first.
Pei Qing called Zhan Weiyang to get up, and the two went downstairs together.
The living room downstairs was still very lively. The adults were still sitting around the sofa chatting. The coffee table in front of the sofa was full of sugar and melon seeds, and the teacups were filled with hot tea.
Zhan Weiguang waved to them at the kitchen door.
When Zhan Weiyang passed by the living room, he saw Pei Jingrong and suddenly remembered something.
The kitchen was filled with steam. The gas stove was burning with a flame, and the steamer was releasing steam. The electric slow cooker was emitting a fragrant aroma from the stew. Next to it was a fried fish, ready to be served after being drizzled with sauce.
Zhan Xiusong was in the kitchen at this time, fiddling with the new coffee machine.
Pei Qing had ordered the coffee machine several days ago, but it was only delivered about two or three days ago, and they had never used it.
This afternoon, there was no milk tea for takeout, so Zhan Weiguang wanted to make milk tea for himself and try the new coffee machine.
Auntie Luo was still busy in the kitchen, disliked them being on the way here, and asked them to take the coffee machine out to another place.
So Zhan Weiguang took the coffee machine to the living room, unpacked the new coffee beans, and studied how to use it while reading the instructions.
Pei Qing asked him, “Aren’t you making milk tea?”
Zhan Weiguang said, “Let’s make a cup of Yuanyang1Yuenyeung is a drink created by mixing coffee with tea.”
Zhan Weiyang stood by and watched them, but he couldn’t help but turn his head to look at Pei Jingrong. Suddenly he remembered what was going on, and he anxiously pulled Pei Qing’s clothes.
Pei Qing was helping Zhan Weiguang operate the coffee machine and said to Zhan Weiyang, “Yangyang, wait for me for a while.”
Zhan Weiyang had to wait for him patiently.
When the coffee was finally brewed, the whole room was filled with the aroma of coffee, and Zhan Xiusong excitedly poured the milk tea into several cups and then added coffee to them.
Zhan Weiguang tried the coffee first and said to Pei Qing, “Not bad.”
Pei Qing didn’t want to drink milk tea, so he just asked for a cup of black coffee. He took a sip and nodded. Then he turned around and saw Zhan Weiyang holding the cup and drinking it in small sips. He then said, “You should drink less. Be careful you can’t fall asleep at night.”
Zhan Weiguang said beside him, “It doesn’t matter tonight. If you can’t fall asleep, we can play cards.”
“You want to play all night?” Pei Qing asked him.
Zhan Weiguang smiled and said, “Why not?” Boys in their late teens were at the height of their energy.
Zhan Weiyang’s Yuanyang cup was added with sugar and milk. He felt that it tasted just right. After drinking a cup, he asked Zhan Xiusong to pour him another cup.
When he finished drinking, Pei Qing reached out to take his cup and said, “Don’t drink anymore. You really won’t be able to fall asleep at night.”
Zhan Weiyang whispered to him, “I can drink some wine later.”
“Can drinking some wine offset the effect of coffee?” Pei Qing asked.
Zhan Weiyang was surprised and asked, “Don’t you want to sleep after drinking?” Every time his father drank, he fell asleep quickly and deeply.
Pei Qing shook his head, “I don’t think so.” At least he didn’t feel very sleepy after drinking, but rather he felt an unusual excitement.
Zhan Weiyang thought of what he wanted to say again, looked at Pei Qing with a serious expression and asked him, “Qing ge, are you leaving?”
Pei Qing was stunned by his question and asked back, “Why do you think I’m leaving?”
Zhan Weiyang said, “I heard you talking to your father.”
Pei Qing didn’t answer immediately. He glanced at the surrounding environment and felt that it was not appropriate to talk about this with Zhan Weiyang, so he said, “I’ll tell you later.” After that, he asked Zhan Weiyang, “What else did you hear?”
“Huh?” Zhan Weiyang didn’t understand.
Pei Qing wanted to know if Zhan Weiyang had heard what he and Zhan Xueqing said. He didn’t really want Zhan Weiyang to know that since it was just some meaningless worries that no longer mattered.
In Pei Qing’s eyes, Zhan Weiyang was too innocent and pure, so he should be well protected and not get hurt.
Pei Qing said, “You just heard me talking to my dad?”
Zhan Weiyang nodded, “Then I fell asleep.”
“That’s nothing,” Pei Qing said.
Although Pei Qing had just said that he would tell him later, Zhan Weiyang was still very worried and couldn’t help asking again, “Will you leave?”
Pei Qing said, “Even if I leave, it will be temporary. I will be back soon. Don’t be afraid.”
He had already planned to go back with Pei Jingrong on the third day of the New Year, and even if he didn’t go back then, he would go back when school started. Temporary separation was inevitable, and what he needed to do was to comfort Zhan Weiyang’s emotions.
