Chapter 10 My brother is super handsome!

When Yan Yu hurriedly returned to the ward, Xie Li was lying on the bed, playing with a blue rose in her hand, picking off the petals one by one, with a faint smile on her lips.

The moment Yan Yu pushed open the door, he was slightly stunned. It reminded him of when Xie Li was still a child, the first time they met.

When the two sets of parents met, they brought their two children, who were around ten years old. Xie Li was fair-skinned and a little timid and shy, and liked to hide behind her mother.

His parents asked him to say hello, so he peeked out from behind his mother, and perhaps because he was too nervous, he stammered, "Nihao, my name is... Xie Li..."

After speaking, his tongue got tied, and his face instantly turned red as he hid his head behind his mother, no longer uttering a sound.

From that moment on, Yan Yu found the handsome little boy very cute, and he liked him a lot. However, as they spent more time together, they both grew up without realizing it. When Yan Yu began to notice his own sexual orientation, he had already fallen hopelessly in love with Xie Li...

He never formally confessed his feelings, because he knew Xie Li could sense it, but he never expressed his opinion, probably hoping to keep his distance and not cross that line.

While Yan Yu was lost in thought, Xie Li turned around, smiled at him with a touch of naivety, and asked, "You're here?"

Xie Li is twenty-four years old this year, a few years younger than him.

"Are you feeling better?" Yan Yu pushed open the door and walked in, noticing that the food on the table was still untouched. He frowned slightly. "Why aren't you eating? Don't you have an appetite?"

Xie Li glanced at the food on the table with a smile, shook his head and smiled, and said softly, "I really don't have much of an appetite. I haven't been sleeping well and I have no appetite."

The moment Yan Yu entered, Xie Li noticed something: he wasn't carrying a bouquet of flowers. The nurse had mentioned that he had brought a bouquet, so where did it go?

Could it be that he really came here specifically to see someone else? And that other person is the one he made love with not long ago...the one?

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, Xie Li tightened his grip on the blue rose in his palm. The stem snapped with a "crack," and thorns pierced his hand, drawing out a few drops of bright red blood.

"Hiss..." Xie Li took a soft breath and frowned.

"Why didn't you be more careful?" Yan Yu scolded, then quickly took his hand and gently wiped away the blood with a white paper roll, his handsome face showing undisguised worry.

Xie Li looked down at Yan Yu's hands with their distinct knuckles, feeling the warmth of his palms. Suddenly, she felt a little dazed, thinking that this person should belong to her as before, how could she share him with someone else?

But he also knew that what he couldn't have was always so beautiful and desirable, and what would happen once he got it?

"I'll be discharged soon. This hospital is so stuffy, I can finally get some fresh air," Xie Li said with a smile. "It feels like there are so many places I can go."

"Where do you want to go?" Yan Yu paused, looked at Xie Li's fair and slender fingers, couldn't help but gently squeeze them, feeling their warmth and a touch of longing, before quickly letting go.

He smiled as if nothing had happened and asked, "I've been pretty relaxed at work lately, not busy at all. How about we go out and have some fun sometime?"

"That's not impossible," Xie Li nodded with a smile. The thought of the person Yan Yu had recently been intimate with came to mind again, and she felt inexplicably irritated, but she tried her best to suppress it and smiled, "It's summer now, how about we go to the beach together?"

Yan Yu smiled and said, "Of course."

"But let's eat first. You'll have more energy if you're full," Yan Yu said with a smile, taking the bowl of rice and scooping a spoonful of porridge to his lips. "I'll feed you. Open your mouth."

Xie Li was stunned for a moment, looking at the porridge he was being fed. For some reason, her ears felt inexplicably hot. She then leaned over and took a bite, and a strange feeling was quietly spreading in her heart.

Yan Yu narrowed his eyes, smiled softly, and then fed him bite by bite.

At night, the stars twinkled.

Shen Jin rode a bicycle out of his house and arrived at the home of a wealthy man in the city.

At first, wealthy families like this would not hire a poor tutor like him, but because he happened to find their cat, the lady was happy and liked him, so she gave him this job.

Madam Bai was sitting in a hanging chair, holding her cat, admiring the moon. When she saw him coming, she greeted him with a smile, "Little Jin, come here."

"Good evening, Mrs. Bai." Shen Jin put his bicycle aside and greeted her with a smile and a nod.

Even though Madam Bai was over forty, she was still very well-preserved and her youthful beauty was still evident. She chuckled and said, "You've worked hard. Mu'er is excitedly waiting for Brother Xiao Jin in the hall. Go on."

"It's my honor not to suffer," Shen Jin smiled awkwardly, feeling somewhat embarrassed by her words. "Then I'll go over."

The "Mu'er" that Madam Bai mentioned is her youngest daughter, named Bai Mu. She is a middle school girl with pigtails, who is cute and lively. She also likes him very much, and the two of them usually get along very well.

"Brother Xiao Jin is here!" The little girl waved and smiled as soon as she saw him coming, then deliberately hummed twice and said, "Look, I've already set out my study materials, why don't you come over and praise me!"

"Okay, I'll praise you," Shen Jin said with a smile as he walked over. Seeing her looking like she was waiting to be praised, he couldn't help but pat her head with a smile. "I know you're great."

"Of course!" Bai Mu chuckled twice, then pushed a plate of fruit on the table over and said with a smile, "Come on, Brother Xiao Jin, have some fruit."

Shen Jin was both amused and exasperated. He arranged the study materials on the table and then smiled, "We need to study. Let's talk about it after we've finished. Was there anything you didn't understand in class today? Tell me now, and I'll teach you. If not, I'll give you a preview of the new lesson."

"Okay, you're right, I'll listen to Brother Xiao Jin." The little girl smiled, then couldn't help but mutter a few words, "Brother Xiao Jin is much better as a teacher than my other brother. He just keeps calling me stupid, saying things like, 'It's because you're stupid that you can't understand.' It's so annoying!"

When Shen Jin heard her say "brother," he was taken aback. He had been working as a tutor in the Bai family for half a year, but he had never met the so-called brother, nor had he inquired about him.

He couldn't help but laugh and said, "Mu'er is so beautiful, your brother must be very handsome too."

When it came to good looks, the little girl instantly became proud, nodding and smiling repeatedly, "Yes, my brother is super handsome! He's in his twenties. He was abroad before, but he's back recently. You should be able to see him in a bit!"
