The door opened and Eric pushed Adam out of the room.
It was still early at this time, and most people were still asleep, but there was a slight clanging sound from the kitchen.
Walking towards the kitchen following the sound, the aroma of frying food became stronger and stronger. Andrew stood in front of the cooking table, flipping the bacon in the frying pan, with a serious expression as if he was praying to the gods.
"Good morning." Adam stopped at the door of the kitchen and greeted Andrew.
Andrew suddenly turned his head, saw two people outside the door, and quickly responded with a smile: "Good morning, Adam, good morning, Eric." At this moment, there was a "cracking" sound of oil flowers bursting in the frying pan, and Andrew turned around quickly. Flipping the barbecue, he said, "You woke up so early, breakfast will be ready in a while, do you want a glass of milk first?"
Adam did not refuse his kindness, "Thank you, let's do it ourselves." Then he looked at the person behind him Eric.
Eric was still as silent as yesterday. He bit his lip lightly when he received Adam's request, as if hesitating whether to leave Adam's side.
Adam looked at him encouragingly, and whispered his name: "Eric, can you do me this favor?"
Eric made up his mind, nodded, and walked into the kitchen.
Andrew poured two glasses of milk for him, but Eric only took one, and then he took an empty glass and looked at each other.
Andrew was a little at a loss. He didn't know if he had done something wrong, or if he had violated the other party's taboo somewhere he hadn't noticed.
Seeing that the two of them were frozen there, and the meat in the pot was going to be mushy, Adam quickly explained: "I'm sorry, it's me. I have some cleanliness and I'm not used to using things that have been touched by others. So please tell me again. Pour me a glass."
Andrew heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that it was not his fault, and said with a smile, "Of course, no problem." He picked up the milk jug and carefully poured it into the empty cup held by Eric. No splash.
Eric said "Thank you" in a very low voice, and returned to Adam with two glasses of milk.
The two left the kitchen and came to the dining room. The restaurant was also empty, and they found a table for two next to the window to sit down.
Eric saw that the cameraman hadn't followed, so he approached Adam and teased in a low voice: "Aren't we bullying honest people too much like this? The audience will definitely say that we are acting and hypocritical after watching this paragraph."
Adam (Chaier Bai) smiled helplessly: "No way, people are set up like this. But don't worry, you are just a poor little person who relies on me wholeheartedly, they won't talk about you. They will only talk about me, old and old."
"Brother, you Not old!" Eric (Xia Changdian) muttered, "And this idea is completely my own idea, in fact, I did it." Thinking that his prank on the spur of the moment might attract a lot of scolding from his brother, the exquisite His little face collapsed, and his brows were tightly wrinkled.
Qian Erbai laughed, he has seen people fighting for benefits and credit, but he has never seen someone who insists on sticking the label of "excellence" on himself. He poked Xia Changdian's face, and said in relief, "Trust me, no one will tell." If the cleanliness character works well, it can also be turned into an affectionate character, and it may become a cute spot for many people.
The two whispered for a while, and when they saw the cameraman walk out of the dining room, they knew that other tenants were coming out, so they quietly sat back in their respective seats, and changed back into the elegant, paranoid and cleanliness Uncle Adam and the autistic and well-behaved student Eric .
The first to appear was Jessica in Room 3. She was wearing a sportswear, her hair was raised high with a headband, revealing her full forehead. As she walked into the restaurant with her arms moving, she greeted Adam and Eric vigorously: "Morning neighbors, did you sleep well last night?"
"It's not bad." Qian Erbai responded with a smile, not wanting to exchange too many pleasantries, so he turned his eyes back and focused on the milk in front of him again. Xia Changdian didn't react at all from the beginning to the end, he just lowered his head and sipped his milk, as if no one else could attract his attention except Adam.
The indifference of the neighbors did not affect Jessica's enthusiasm at all. She shrugged her nose and smelled the aroma of oil floating in the air. She couldn't help but exclaimed: "It smells so good. Is Andrew making breakfast?" Answered, and couldn't wait to enter the kitchen, and then her sincere praise came out: "Wow! Andrew, you are so good! Did you make this all, I can't wait to taste it!"
Glory Ya came down from upstairs, and when she heard Jessica's iconic loud voice in the kitchen, she frowned slightly. At this moment, the cameraman just turned the camera to her, and she didn't have time to put away the expression on her face.
[Gloria: Jessica is a very nice woman, she even gave me her room yesterday. But to be honest, sometimes, she is too loud. 】
Gloria got up early in the morning and practiced yoga on the balcony for a while, and then took a shower. Feeling that it was almost time, she opened the door and came out. At this time, her hair is half dry, loose behind her waist and hips, and the tip of her hair gently touches her plump peach buttocks as she walks. His eyes were straight and his mind was floating.
James and Richard went out almost at the same time. The two have become good friends since they met in the gym yesterday. They also exchanged contact information before returning to the house, and agreed to exchange training plans and gain muscle experience if they have nothing to do. We met at the top of the stairs, and the two gave a friendly high-five between brothers, and then walked downstairs while chatting.
Gloria heard the talking and laughing behind her, turned around and looked up, and greeted her with a smile: "Good morning, boys."
"Morning, girls!" Richard responded politely, his face The smile on the face is very bright.
Gloria, Richard and James are all in their thirties, and they all like the same sex. What's more, the three are from the same city. No one persisted in this interest after I grew up. There are so many things in common that they have a feeling of sympathy for each other. Although they have met for less than 24 hours, the three of them have a faint tendency to form a small group.
James nodded with a smile, as a greeting, but his eyes turned twice on Gloria's buttocks. Richard found out, bumped him lightly on the shoulder, and teased: "Are you envious? I have an exclusive set of training secrets here, stick to it for three months, and keep your beautiful jelly buttocks! How about it, do you want it?"
James glanced at him, with mixed emotions in his eyes. For a moment, he sighed, leaned closer to Richard and whispered: "Yes."
Andrew divided the breakfast into sixteen points, and each plate contained a sandwich , two bacons and a fried poached egg, the drink is milk and hot orange juice. In order to cater to the appetite of the girls, he also made avocado salad, Portuguese egg tart, and cream soup. A table full of sumptuous breakfast was set up, full of color, fragrance and taste, which made people's index fingers twitch and appetite whetted.
In order to implement Qian Erbai's cleanliness personality, Xia Changdian personally went to the kitchen to serve breakfast for two, but because Jessica and Rachel were also helping to serve meals in the kitchen, Xia Changdian's behavior was not so conspicuous .
Andrew absent-mindedly bit the sandwich, feeling uneasy, would everyone like his cooking? He quietly looked at the fifteen tenants. Everyone seemed to be eating quietly, their movements were unhurried, and there was no expression on their faces. Compared with the scene where all the staff praised the exquisite dinner of the chef of the star restaurant last night, it seemed too deserted at this moment. He couldn't help feeling a little lost. "Sure enough, I'm still far behind." He thought, "However, although there is no praise, there is no criticism either. This should be considered a good sign."
He comforted himself in his heart, but his eyes couldn't help but continue to observe everyone's reactions. Jessica really supported her. Not only did she finish one of her sandwiches, but she also ate two egg tarts. When she saw Andrew looking over, she licked her fingers and praised, "It's so delicious, if it wasn't for I like girls, and I want to marry you!"
As soon as she said this, Jessica felt nothing, but Andrew was taken aback, subconsciously looking at the expressions of the other people on the table.
At this time, Richard suddenly put down his fork, took out a tissue to wipe his mouth, stood up and said, "I'm full, thank you for the hospitality." Then he left the table.
The atmosphere was a little stiff.
Jessica didn't know why, she looked at the back of Richard who was going away resolutely, and then at the panic-stricken Andrew, and asked in a low voice, guilty: "Did I say something wrong?"
Everyone was also puzzled, naturally No one could answer her.
Rachel and Kelly speculate and feel uncomfortable. Being straight is being discriminated against everywhere, and they've experienced enough in their lives. I thought this show would be a piece of pure land, but now it seems that they probably thought too much.
Things hurt their kind, Rachel lost her appetite, placed the knife and fork neatly on top of the plate, and stood up. She walked up to Andrew, put her hand on his shoulder, patted him, and said, "Thank you for your breakfast, thank you for your hard work." This is a customary gesture, representing care, comfort, and support.
Andrew's eye circles were red, and the base of his nose was sore. He had to blink his eyes quickly to prevent himself from crying. He raised his head and smiled at Rachel, but the smile was very forced.
Rachel feels sorry for this man who is always pleasing others, living in the eyes of others all his life, and will never be happy.
Jessica's words caused the two of them to leave the table, and she didn't dare to speak casually anymore, she silently lowered her head and speeded up her meal.
The atmosphere at the dining table was weird, and the rest of the tenants felt uncomfortable, hurriedly finished their plates, got up and left.
Kelly didn't eat much to keep in shape, but he sat there chewing and eating slowly, and he didn't put down his spoon until Jessica, who had finished eating, dawdled and apologized and left. He came behind Andrew, bent down suddenly and hugged Andrew into his arms.
Today, he is wearing a puff-sleeve wrap-around skirt decorated with pink tassels. He is fluffy all over, and he looks like a warm mother chicken when he hugs Andrew with his arms open. He stuck to Andrew's ear and said softly, "Don't think too much, you are not alone."
Andrew nodded, tears were already rolling in his eyes.
After Kelly left, Andrew didn't move. He sat on his seat, staring at the leftovers on the table, silently staring in a daze.
The restaurant was quiet, as if Andrew was the only one.
Qian Erbai tapped the armrest of the wheelchair, signaling Xia Changdian to push him away.
The cameraman obeyed the arrangement in the headset and dutifully filmed Andrew's loneliness, without noticing any movement of the two. And Andrew is falling into self-loathing, and he is even more unaware of the movement of the outside world.
Qian Erbai turned his head and glanced at Andrew, only to sigh in the end. Just leave him alone.
Qian Erbai has never experienced Andrew's suffering, so he can't empathize with Andrew, and he has no position to persuade the other party to "think about it". Xia Changdian had a dark past of being discriminated against or even abused because of his sexuality, but he played the role of an autistic boy who didn't want to communicate with others, and he couldn't persuade the other party at this time.
Furthermore, what they represent here is the mainstream side that enjoys power and light. Not to comment or disturb is the simplest kindness they can give to Andrew.
A well-prepared breakfast ended up breaking up, so to speak. The contradiction between the same and the opposite sex appeared in Rainbow Villa for the first time. Dreams and reality were integrated, breaking the appearance of harmony and peace that idealists tried their best to whitewash.
【Rachel (model, 19): I thought we could get rid of those prejudices here and coexist peacefully. It seems that I was too naive. ]
[Amy (waiter, 29): I didn't expect Richard to have such a prejudice against heterosexuality! This really surprised me. 】
【Matilda (Spanish teacher, 26): I sympathize with him. 】
【James (veteran, 30): I don't think Richard is that kind of person, there must be some misunderstanding. 】
【Jessica (Nurse, 32): What I said was really just an unintentional statement! Andrew, sorry! 】
【Lindsay (food critic, 29): To be honest, today's meal is far inferior to yesterday's dinner in terms of taste, but in terms of sincerity, it is even better. It was his regret that Richard could not taste it carefully. Also, because of what happened last night, I've been watching Amy. She left the restaurant and went straight to the bathroom, and I heard her vomit. 】
After the breakfast turmoil, the relationship between everyone became a little delicate. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, there is still a faint gap between the tenants.
Some people are glad that they did not announce their sexual orientation as early as Andrew, but his today may be his tomorrow, and thinking of this, the trace of happiness is gone.
Some people are surprised that there are people who are afraid of xenophobia around them. It turns out that the stories of "hate the house and the black" described in those literary works and film and television dramas actually exist! Destroying differences will not strengthen oneself, but will only expose one's cowardice, incompetence and short-sightedness more. As a civilized person in the new era who claims to be rational, harmony but difference and respect for differences are the most basic morals. They consciously will not do such a cruel thing.
But before things happen, there are always infinite possibilities, and no one can say for sure that he can be a saint forever and never be biased. After all, human nature is the most complicated and the most vulnerable.
What everyone can do is to be as tolerant and sympathetic as possible at this time, so that even if they become different from themselves in the future, when they recall the past, they can still sigh with emotion: "I was kind too." And those who insisted on themselves Then you can proudly tell your children and grandchildren and engrave it on your epitaph: "This man was born good and always is."
