Chapter 333 Running with the Ball
It was originally something that Fang Jia had mentioned, but at this moment, Fang Jia naturally agreed.
He Jingxing smiled and introduced to him: "It's going to a nursing home. The main thing is to chat with the elderly. There are also some elderly people who are not in good health. I have to help them walk. Well, it seems quite boring."
Fang Jia shook his head: "It's not boring." He stopped and asked He Jingxing, "How did you get in touch with this?"
He Jingxing said: "When I was in college, there was a volunteer team in the school. I participated in it at the time, and they would organize some activities. There are many forms, and they don't necessarily need to be in contact with people."
Fang Jia said sincerely: "Brother He, you are really a good person."
"..." He Jingxing laughed again, "Is this the legendary 'good person card'?"
Fang Jia blinked.He could tell that He Jingxing was joking.In this case, Fang Jia simply followed his words: "Haha, I should be the first person to issue you a card, right?"
Everyone knows what these three words mean.But in Fang Jia's mind, if He Jingxing pursued someone, no one would refuse.
He Jingxing said in a chic manner, "Yes."
Fang Jia smiled.After laughing, he started to feel guilty again, saying: "In the past few years, you have been taking care of me and Rarity, even delaying your own affairs."
He Jingxing was startled.He originally thought that next, he would be able to take advantage of the situation and tell Fang Jia: Because before I met you, I had never been tempted by anyone else.After meeting you, his life is full of you again... He is also worried that confessing to Fang Jia will scare people, so he plans to proceed step by step.I didn't expect to hear such words.
He looked more restrained, looked at Fang Jia solemnly and seriously, and said, "Don't say that. I just help you a little when it's inconvenient for you. You always do the hardest work."
Fang Jia said heartily, "Fang Rui doesn't want to come back. In the future... Brother He, thinking about it now, I'm really sorry for you."
He Jingxing said, "What are you sorry for?" After thinking for a while, "You really don't need to care about these things. Every day in the past is worth it to me."
Fang Jia's eyes flickered: "Brother He?"
He Jingxing: "I know that in the worldly concept, I should get married and have children. But Fang Jia, people don't live for the eyes of others. I feel happy, and that is more important than anything else. And For the past six years, I have been very, very happy because I met you again."
Fang Jia's fingers trembled slightly.
He couldn't describe how he felt at this moment.He looked at He Jingxing and saw his handsome and gentle face.The man in front of him had his own shadow in his eyes.Those eyes are deep and affectionate—no, I must be thinking too much.
He turned his head suddenly, pretending to get a cup to drink water.But the action was too hasty, and accidentally touched the water glass.
Fang Jia let out an "ah" and got up quickly, while He Jingxing had already pulled out a piece of paper from the side, and while holding up the cup, he was wiping the table clean.
Fang Jia hurriedly said, "Brother He, I'll come."
He also took out the paper and went to the table.This time, their bodies were very close again.Fang Jia's shoulders touched He Jingxing's. Normally, he would not feel that there was anything wrong.But at the moment, he actually felt a fire ignited from the place where the two touched, spread, and even his heart exploded.
Hot blood rushed to his cheeks, and a thin layer of sweat broke out from his palms.
His Adam's apple rolled, and he almost felt that he was about to lose his footing.At this time, He Jingxing said, "There's a little too much water, I'd better get a rag."
Fang Jia replied subconsciously: "I'll go—" After a pause, He Jingxing had already walked away.
Fang Jia rolled his Adam's apple and looked at the man's back.It took a while before I realized that I shouldn't be doing this.
He hastily tossed the wet napkin in the bin.After that, he didn't return to his seat, but still stood beside the trash can.
The mood is too chaotic, the ears are ringing.He knew that his current state must be wrong, but he didn't dare to think deeply.
What is wrong with me?
——A simple thought seemed to scald him.
He adjusted his mood and expression.
Since leaving the Acropolis six years ago, Fang Jia experienced the torment of pregnancy, the joy of the birth of a new life, and the scene after Fang Rui was born.He thought that that little life would be all his happiness in the future.But after Fang Rui left, he discovered in disbelief that he was still yearning for the next piece of happiness.
Such thoughts, like a gust of wind, drifted through Fang Jia's mind.
Dissipated quickly again.Weeds spread, covering the ashes left by the flames.He finally mustered up the courage to return to his place.But at this time, He Jingxing hadn't come back yet.
Fang Jia is fortunate: It’s okay.Otherwise, looking at my performance just now, Brother He must feel strange.If he asks a few more questions, I really don't know how to answer them.
He subconsciously ignored it.Take a rag, why is it taking so long?The real reason, of course, was that after entering the bathroom in the studio, He Jingxing stood in front of the sink and rinsed his hands with cold water for a long time before the hot feeling in his palms dissipated.
do not do that.
He warned himself in his heart.
Fang Jia just came back from the Acropolis.After what happened to Fang Rui, he was very sad, so devastated.It will probably take a while longer to get out of this hurt.I have to calm down and wait for him.As it is now, it is already a very good thing to be by Fang Jia's side and see his occasional smiling face.
Don't be too fast, it will scare him.
He finally sorted out his emotions and calmed down.After that, He Jingxing faced a new problem: I stayed here for so long, would Fang Jia find it strange?Always have a reason.
More time passed.His originally clever mind started to get stuck at this moment, and when he finally walked out of the bathroom, what he saw was Fang Jia sitting on the seat, looking down at the blueprint.
The young man's jet-black hair hadn't been trimmed for some days, and now it was longer than what He Jingxing was used to.It fell on the fair neck, matched with Jia Qingjun's eyebrows and eyes - He Jingxing felt that he needed to turn around and go back to the sink, and calm down for a while before continuing to speak.
But Fang Jia didn't give him this chance.Seeing He Jingxing, he quickly got up and called, "Brother He."
He Jingxing coughed, walked up to him, and said, "Well, the faucet in the bathroom broke down just now, so I probably fixed it."
Too bad an excuse, he regretted it when he said it.But Fang Jia actually believed it, and said in a thankful tone: "Fortunately, you found out! Otherwise, how much water would be wasted."
He Jingxing: "..." Passed the test?
Fang Jia: "..." He swallowed, nervous, was his tone a little too exaggerated just now?
The eyes of the two met, He Jingxing said "hmm" and said, "Yes."
Fang Jiasong breathed a sigh of relief: "That's it."
……
……
Fast forward to Saturday.
On the same day, Fang Jia and He Jingxing agreed to set off at eight o'clock.He sets his alarm for 07:30, but actually wakes up earlier.
I originally planned to buy breakfast by the way when I was going out.But since he woke up, he simply cooked porridge and fried eggs himself.
At [-]:[-], He Jingxing called him and said that he had arrived at the gate of Fang Jia's yard, and asked him if he had packed up.
Fang Jia hurriedly packed the extra food and said, "It's done!" After a while, "Brother He, have you had breakfast yet?"
He Jingxing: "Eat."
Fang Jia stopped, looking at the lunch box in front of her, a little disappointed.
He Jingxing said, "Have you eaten yet? I brought two extra rice balls."
Fang Jia laughed all of a sudden.In his mind, the image of He Jingxing standing in the kitchen, wearing plastic gloves, kneading rice balls with his usual serious attitude, he thought, I'm afraid everyone wants to get in touch with this brother He, right?
With a relaxed tone, he said, "what to do, I'm going to bring you something, but you said you've eaten."
He Jingxing was silent for a while, and said, "Actually, I'm not full either."
Fang Jia smiled and said, "Well, let's take it first, and see if other volunteers want it later, okay?"
He Jingxing happily said, "This is the best."
Fang Jia picked up the lunch box and went out.The weather is getting hotter every day, and most pedestrians on the road wear short sleeves.Although it was the weekend, there were not many children playing in the yard... He saw Lele carrying a small schoolbag and following her mother from a distance.A little bit of sympathy, thinking, it's really not easy for children nowadays.
I was a little dazed again, and realized that at that moment just now, my first reaction was not Fang Rui.
Sure enough, it was slowly coming out.Because of this thought, Fang Jia had a little smile on his face until he got in the car.
He Jingxing saw it, and asked with a smile, "What's the matter? I'm in such a good mood."
Fang Jia looked at him, and saw that after leaving the office, He Jingxing was wearing a simple light-colored T-shirt with casual pants.He didn't talk about his previous thoughts, but said: "It seems that you rarely see Brother He not wearing formal clothes."
Yeah?He Jingxing thought for a while, and replied: "Not really. When I don't usually go to the studio, I dress more casually - what did you take, it smells so good?"
He changed the subject, and Fang Jia replied, "I saw there was still some corn in the refrigerator, so I added it to the porridge. There was also ham and dried shrimp. Haha, isn't it a bit strange?"
"It's not surprising." He Jingxing said, "I seem to be really hungry."
This is the second time he has brought it up.Fang Jia looked at him suspiciously for a moment, worried that He Jingxing had eaten too much, and felt that he would not be able to tell whether he was hungry or full, "Why don't you stop and eat a little?"
He Jingxing refused: "It is said that he will be there at 08:30." That's what he said, but Fang Jia looked at his expression as if he was very sorry.
He licked his lips and looked down at the lunch box in his arms.
At any rate, they have known each other for so many years, and they should know each other's skills well.However, before today, Fang Jia did not seem to have seen He Jingxing look forward to what he made so much.
Then...you should be really hungry.I'm just worried about the activities of the nursing home, so it's not good to delay.
Fang Jia convinced himself.It's just a matter of food, it has nothing to do with me as a cook.
However, it may be because the space in the car is too small and the sunlight outside the window is too bright.Therefore, he once again felt the heat that he had during the week.
He subconsciously avoided He Jingxing, turned his head sideways, and looked at the tall buildings and cars outside the window.Slowly, the eyes felt tired, and the sight began to focus again.
Half an hour later, He Jingxing parked the car in front of the nursing home that he had contacted before, and called Fang Jia: "We're here, get out of the car."
Fang Jia suddenly realized that he didn't know when, from the beginning, his gaze had been falling on He Jingxing in the rearview mirror.
