Agreement

After waking up from his afternoon nap, Bai Fan made a cup of tea and sat down in front of his computer.

“Beep beep~”

As soon as he logged into the chat tool, the familiar icon immediately appeared, Bai Fan opened it, and saw a message left by Gongyi.

Gongyi: It’s a pity that you didn’t come to this membership meeting.

Bai Fan smiled, and proceeded to type: How is it a pity?

There was a quick message back: The venue for the gathering is the famous Food City, and everyone is looking forward to it.

Gongyi Bo then sent some pictures over, Bai Fan looked at the delicious dishes in the pictures, and couldn’t deny that he was tempted.

Fan-ge: It looks delicious. Do you have the recipe?

Gongyi: What, you want to try making it? Let me find it.

Gongyi Bo soon sent a link, Bai Fan opened it, and saw that there were detailed recipes of those famous dishes in it. Bai Fan typed in a good mood: Thank you! I happen to have a person idling here, I’m gonna go give him some work to do.

The two chatted for a while before Bai Fan closed the chat tool, printed out the recipe on the website, and used the walkie-talkie, “Xiaojun.”

Gongyi Jun appeared, “What’s the matter?”

“What are we having for dinner?” Bai Fan asked.

Hearing this question, Gongyi Jun became irritated, his face turned dark, “You decide what to eat.”

“Okay.” Bai Fan smiled and held up the menu that he had just printed out, “Tonight we will try new dishes, you can learn from these~”

Gong Yijun, “…”

Afterwards, Bai Fan listened to the sound of chopping vegetables in the kitchen, which sounded more like corpses being chopped instead of vegetables. 

He then leisurely took a sip of tea. Life is so beautiful.

…

Maybe it’s due to witnessing Bai Fan’s portrait, the restless aura in Yin Rui’s body miraculously calmed down, and the closed door training became less important and urgent. As long as he keeps his mind calm every day, practices more exercises and adjusts his breath, he can gradually recover.

Yin Rui didn’t mention the strange noises during the closed door training anymore, and Bai Fan felt bad asking, but a string of doubt was quietly buried in his heart. What is hiding there?

Bai Fan’s world during the day was getting hotter and hotter, but the world at night was only getting colder, however, Bai Fan has adapted very well. The biggest advantage of this contrast is that he doesn’t yearn for winter when it is hot, and think of summer when it is cold.

Once, he learned how to make a delicious fruit crushed ice with great interest. He wanted to make it for Yin Rui at night, but as soon as he woke up in Yin Rui’s body at night, he was completely frozen by the severe winter temperature, so his desire to make crushed ice immediately dropped a lot. But when he encountered something good, he wanted to share it with Yin Rui, and it was so easy to get ice cubes in that kind of weather, so Bai Fan finally made a plate of fruit crushed ice. His original intention was to let Yin Rui try something new. Yin Rui’s body was very good, and eating a spoonful or two of crushed ice would not cause any serious problems.

However, Bai Fan later found out from one of the servants that Yin Rui ate a whole plate of crushed ice that day. Imagining Yin Rui trembling while eating ice, Bai Fan couldn’t help shivering. He felt so guilty that he never made anything out of season again.

Bai Fan still continued reciting military tactic books. Up until now, he has recited all the dozen or so of the most famous books in the world to Yin Rui. Although Yin Rui had asked him not to memorize them any more, Bai Fan felt that he had too much free time during the day, memorizing more books can not only help Yin Rui, but also enrich his own knowledge, so why not do it?

Now, what he is looking at is a military book titled “Wu Jing Zong Yao” written by an official in the Northern Song Dynasty in ancient times. When he saw the annotations on it, in the early Northern Song Dynasty, 40 Chinese characters from a five-character verse were used during combat, representing 40 situations or needs respectively. Bai Fan became interested. Secret codes…there are too many emergencies for two people sharing the same body, he and Yin Rui should also make a secret code, so that they can use it to warn each other when they encounter danger in the future. 

Bai Fan quickly researched cryptography, but found that most of it required complex formula calculations. Bai Fan immediately gave up on the idea of learning complex ciphers. Bai Fan concluded that he and Yin Rui only needed to learn a little secret writing method to quickly warn each other. 

[Rui, we never added the date when we wrote the letters, right? ]

[Mhm. ]

[Then Rui, in the future we will agree that if we encounter a dangerous situation and cannot explain clearly, we will add the date to the end of the letter. ]

[Ok. ] Yin Rui caressed the letter Bai Fan wrote to him, feeling very warm in his heart, his Fan really cared about him. Yin Rui carefully put the letter into the compartment full of letters, locked it and stood up. He stared at the portrait hanging on the wall with eyes gradually darkening.

Yin Rui took two steps forward, put his hand lightly on the portrait, and stared at it again for a while. He spread paper over the table and picked up a brush, and observed the painting carefully, slowly outlining Fan’s figure. For some unknown reason, after finishing, he added himself behind Fan. Yin Rui was touched, looking at himself in the same portrait as Fan. Fan was no longer alone, he was with him now.

Yin Rui drew one painting after another as if he was being possessed by a demon. In the paintings he drew, he and Fan smiled at each other, or held hands to view the scenery, or did sword dancing together.

In this day-to-day depiction, Yin Rui gained a sense of satisfaction, but what followed was a deeper feeling of loneliness.

Yin Rui touched his own figure who was hugging and smiling with Fan in the portrait, and murmured, “What to do, I’m jealous of you.” Even if he knew that the portrait was his own image, even if he knew that the portrait was fictional. However, he still couldn’t help being jealous of himself who was with Fan in the portrait, and for himself who couldn’t even meet Fan in reality.

[Fan, will I have the chance to see you in the future? ]

[This… I don’t know either, but of course I want to see Rui. ]

[Fan, will I get to see you? Will I never be able to see Fan again until I’m old and dead? ]

[Don’t talk nonsense, you’re still young, don’t talk about death already. ]

Putting down the brush in his hand, Bai Fan frowned. He felt a very stuffy feeling in his heart, as if there was something heavy stuck in there. It felt really… unpleasant.
