Chapter 37: Do You Want Your eyes Or The Candy

In the afternoon of the next day, Chi was searching for something. He flipped the two pieces of candy out again. He didn't like sweet food. He hadn't eaten candy for a long time. Therefore the candy that Wu gave him was thrown into his office table drawer, but now it was opened again. He stared at the candy wrapper and looked at it for a moment. He peeled the candy paper for the first time.

He ate the bloody candy!

When Fang Xin came to the door, he saw Chi putting the candy in his mouth.

"Hey? I thought you hated eating candy?" Fang Xin was surprised.

Chi's eyes were bored. "Who said I didn't like to eat candy?"

"Two days ago, when we were celebrating, there were so many candy balls bought for the unit. You didn't take one. When I asked you later, you said you didn't like eating candies."

"That was then..."

Fang Xin was speechless. He stared at the rest of the candy. "I haven't eaten the rabbit candy for years. I don't know if it still tastes exactly as I remember."

"Yes... It does."

Chi's neat and tidy words gave Fang Xin's party mood a heavy blow.

Fang Xin did not give up. He continued with a smile, "Come give me one! I want to remember the good old days."

"It's all .... Gone."

Chi's words are said final for most people who hear them. It's fair to believe that this person is more truthful.

"You're not blinking while saying that? I can see that you have it there. How can it be all gone?"

Chi looked up and looked at the latter. "Do you want the candy or your eyes?"

Fang Xin froze for three seconds and walked off.

...

In the following weeks, Wu would still come at the grounds to play. No matter if Chi is in the morning or evening shift, whether it is cloudy or rainy, Wu always appear on time. Sometimes, he would practice a 3-pointer game and gets a few people to come and play the game. If Chi is standing in a conspicuous position, as long as he does not speak, Wu will not take the initiative. He just ignores him.

After catching up with Chi on his night shift, only the two of them were on the basketball court. Wu will secretly push snacks on Chi's pockets. Most of the time, he will have dried tofu and occasionally pack two bags of curd beans or two bags of pickled chicken feet. Later, Chi was conscious of this so instead of waiting for Wu to sneak them into his pocket, he just went straight to the bag and take whatever it was that Wu brought .

Wu also brought a variety of birds for Xiao Chu Bao .

There was a kind of subtle understanding between the two. No one asks why the person has brought things nor the other one asks why they are taken. It seems to be a matter of course that it's natural to sneak in each other. The two people did not even say extra words, they seems to be there to play and eat.

That day, the weather was dry and Chi went out on duty all day. His face was covered with dry skin. He turned the bag that Wu came with upside-down and found a bottle of Da Bao cosmetic product. The box is still sealed with a price tag of 9.9 Yuan attached.

"For me?" Chi asked wilfully.

Wu pretended not to hear the question. He continued to flip the ball lightly in his hand.

Chi picked up a stone from the ground and accurately hit one of Wu's ears. Then his rugged and deep voice came and said, "I'll call you Da Bao later."

"Why?" The ball in Wu's stagnated.

Chi's belching was flushed with his smile. "Because I'll be seeing you every day!"

The sales slogan of Da Bao appeared in his head. "Da Bao sees you tomorrow, Da Bao sees you every day."

Fuck....!!!!! This is a loss to me? He felt repulsed, "You think that the quality of imported high-end skin care products is not as good as Da Bao? But it is cheap and easy to use."

Chi did not speak nor laugh.

Wu rushed to his face and reached for the box in his hand. "Why don't you just return it to me? I'm not happy giving it to you!"

As a result, he grabbed the box and turned.

Chi's big hands grabbed Wu's collar and dragged himself in front of him. He positioned himself and searched Wu's face. He then spat out words gently,

"I want...."

Do you want to fight me or what? Wu tried to pull back his own collar.

He didn't like that Chi was looking at him with such a deliberate gaze. There was a feeling of pressure building up. For a moment, he couldn't hold back any longer. He wanted to kick Chi and sneak away. He could think of those new hate and old hate and he tolerated them hard.

Chi was looking at Wu's body. Although he was wearing an old-fashioned sportswear, his shoes were full of soil and his face was sweaty, he still felt that Wu was too clean.

In the end, Chi's hand grabbed Wu's short waistband and pulled it up.

Squeeze the eggs!

Wu's forehead bulged along with his veins and his fist clenched still in front of Chi.

Chi's smile soaked to the endless night.
