the house is everything that jiang cheng couldâve dreamed of. it is cute and unlike his old apartment it has a warm atmosphere. he can feel his skin buzzing in content. https://twitter.com/flouury/status/1436797093516021762">https://twitter.com/flouury/s...

he spends most of his day moving and unpacking boxes and putting things in place. by the time itâs sundown heâs almost all the way unpacked and he figures he should go get dinner.
getting into his car, he drives off his property to the center of town. surprisingly, he sees many people around. jiang cheng wouldnât have guessed that this town wouldâve had night life.
jiang cheng parked in the first free spot he found and walked down the street towards a restaurant that looked fairly popular.
it was a rustic inside. there was lots of wood and it seemed to be a butchery as well, judging by the opening that lead to one.
âhello! is it just yourself?â the voice made jiang cheng startle. he turned to find a attractive man shorter than him, holding a couple of drinks.
âuhm, yes.â he nodded.
âokay! follow me this way.â
âuhm, yes.â he nodded.
âokay! follow me this way.â
jiang cheng followed the waiter over to a little table towards the back of the restaurant, it was cozy jiang cheng decided.
âiâll be right with you in a moment.â the waiter said before he walked away to assumably bring the drinks to some customers.

he waited for a bit before the waiter came back and gave him a menu and asked for his drink order.
âhello! sorry it took a while, it is busy tonight. my name is nie huaisang, iâll be your server tonight,â
âhello! sorry it took a while, it is busy tonight. my name is nie huaisang, iâll be your server tonight,â
jiang cheng was impressed with the food. he had been to some of the most highly complimented restaurants in the city but he found this food even more delicious.
when he was finished he paid the bill and thanked nie huaisang.
âoh, no problem! please come back again.â he said with a smile and a small bow. jiang cheng hopes he can get to know him better.

jiang cheng feels free. he can do what he wants and not what would âlook better for publicityâ. he can eat how much he wants and not be reprimanded. he can smile. he likes this feeling.
walking back to his car, he just enjoys the fresh air, taking a deep breath. he likes this. he is going to be happy here.

jiang cheng started his new job the next week. his house had been relatively easy to get into order. it had been a quick other than him rearranging the furniture the way he liked (it took five times for him to like where everything was placed in the living room).
jiang cheng started his new job the next week. his house had been relatively easy to get into order. it had been a quick other than him rearranging the furniture the way he liked (it took five times for him to like where everything was placed in the living room).
jiang cheng was working to get pets and other animals. the stable needs to be fixed up and he is pretty sure he could accomplish that in a few weeks. he also bought seeds for planting his garden. the thought of growing his own food excites jiang cheng.
he is fully prepared to embrace this new life.
the cafe had been heavenly. he loves his coworkers and the owner (his boss) had been lovely. and surprisingly jiang cheng also loved the customers.

he liked socializing with them. jiang cheng didnât know how lonely he was. how he had barred himself from all others, this was a breath of fresh air from his past lonely life.
one of his favorite customers has been nie mingjue. coincidentally he was nie huaisangâs older brother. he seemed at first glance to be a very massive guy, very serious and intimidating. he was the sweetest guy jiang cheng had met.
jiang cheng was very happy to make friends with him. sometimes nie mingjue and nie huaisang would come in together and those have been some of jiang chengâs favorite days.
he loved watching them tease each other and it was very amusing to talk to both of them. it was clear how much they enjoyed each other. jiang cheng was glad he could observe a healthy brother relationship.
âwanyin! weâre here,â nie huaisangâs voice could be heard from the door. today, the nie brothers had invited him to go on a tour of town. jiang cheng had explained that he hadnât been able to see around after trying to settle down in his new house and new job.
once jiang cheng had said that, they both had looked at each other before smiling at jiang cheng and offering to take him on a tour.
-
jiang cheng liked how easy it was to be around the brothers. there were no awkward silences and when he wanted to speak, no one cut him off. it was comfortable.

he was led out the cafe by the brothers and down the street. nie huaisang chattered about the history of the town and nie mingjue reined him in when he would get off topic (Jiang Cheng was quick to notice that it was never in a rude way, like what would sometimes happen to him).
"...and then we moved here and we got the restaurant," Nie Huaisang rambled with a smile on his face, pointing to their restaurant with his fan. he twisted around suddenly to look at Jiang Cheng "wanyin! you wouldn& #39;t believe how messy it was when we got it. it was so rundown!"
he pouted before putting his attention on Nie Mingjue. "da-ge wouldn& #39;t let me turn it into a boutique."
Nie Mingjue just sighed and shook his head. "huaisang, I am no good at sewing, you know this. I would& #39;ve messed up all your work." ah, so this is a conversation they& #39;ve had
Nie Mingjue just sighed and shook his head. "huaisang, I am no good at sewing, you know this. I would& #39;ve messed up all your work." ah, so this is a conversation they& #39;ve had
before. Jiang Cheng was entirely amused with this conversation and was holding back a laugh. he could just imagine what a perfect mess it would& #39;ve been.
"huaisang-"
"no, da-ge. you wouldn& #39;t let us have a boutique-
"I gave you the next thing you wanted on your list though!"
"huaisang-"
"no, da-ge. you wouldn& #39;t let us have a boutique-
"I gave you the next thing you wanted on your list though!"
"I wanted a boutique before the restaurant!"
Jiang Cheng broke out in laughter. it wasn& #39;t his subdued laughter he would do back in the city - no - this laughter was putting tears in his eyes, it was unrestrained. it was so freeing. it made Jiang Cheng even happier he left.

"HA! I win! pay up, da-ge!" Nie Huaisang suddenly exclaimed after Jiang Cheng had started to cam down a bit. he was standing with a proud look on his face with his hand, palm up, outstretched towards a grumbling Nie Mingjue.
"how do you always win?" Nie Mingjue muttered to a smug Nie Huaisang.
"win what?" Jiang Cheng asked, confused. what were they betting on? him? what about him?
"win what?" Jiang Cheng asked, confused. what were they betting on? him? what about him?
"ah, wanyin, don& #39;t look so scared. its nothing bad, I just won against when we were going to hear you laugh. da-ge said tomorrow but I am obviously amazing so I said today!"
hear Jiang Cheng... laugh?
hear Jiang Cheng... laugh?
for as long as Jiang Cheng can remember, there had only been nasty bets about him. bets about fake asking him to dances when he was in school, bets about asking him on a date when he was in college, or faking being his friend. there had never been one about getting him to laugh.
nie mingjue must have seen him get in his head because his hand is on Jiang cheng& #39;s shoulder and a concerned expression is on his face.
"wanyin, you okay?"
"wanyin, you okay?"
"yes. I& #39;m okay. actually better than okay. lets continue the tour?" Jiang Cheng answers smiling and the nie brothers smile back.
Jiang Cheng doesn& #39;t stop smiling until he falls asleep that night.
