Chapter 32

"You... want to immigrate?"

Fully armed, Su Yu stood at his doorstep, hailed a car, and prepared to go to the high-speed rail station.

"Are you sure you don't want us to take you back to school?"

"Let's go, Mom and Dad, bye-bye~"

Spring has returned to the earth, and we've started school.

After double-checking that I had all my documents, I put my four suitcases, two large bags, and backpack through security and headed to the waiting hall. Su Yu bought me a box of bread in case I got hungry on the way.

This semester, Su Yu and I will officially move into our little home, so we've scavenged a lot of things from our house to put in there.

I slept on his shoulder the whole way during the long journey.

"Baby, we've arrived at our stop."

I got up to get my luggage, and Su Yu massaged my shoulders to help me wake up.

After getting off the train, we took the subway, which took quite a while, and we didn't arrive at the dormitory until almost evening. After letting my parents know we were safe, we headed straight to our new home.

Su Yu didn't let me worry. She originally said she would come to see me, but she kept dragging her feet and wouldn't let me go, saying she wanted to give me a surprise.

Our new home is near a park. After walking along a winding stone path through the mountains, we finally arrived. We took the elevator to the top floor, and Su Yu entered the password to turn on the light in the entryway. Our little home, which belongs only to us, was now open and brightly displayed before my eyes.

There was a full-length mirror on the wall by the door. Su Yu's forehead was slightly sweaty, and she asked me with a smile if I liked it.

I absolutely love it.

His eyes now revealed the same lust as mine. Su Yu raised an eyebrow and said, "I've also prepared the bedroom; it's over there."

I picked him up around the waist and carried him towards the bedroom.

...

The soft, dry bed was edged, and the small balcony was separated by curtains. Su Yu nestled in the bed and pointed there, gesturing for me to pull the curtains open.

Outside the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, the shadows of trees swayed gently, and a thin veil seemed to barely conceal what was happening inside.

In this small space separated by two layers of curtains, there was a cabinet. I opened it.

All of them were toys and clothes that I had seen before and clothes that I had never seen before.

Speechless, Su hugged me from behind, resting her chin on my shoulder, and murmured, "This is also a gift." This must be what it feels like to have a heavy responsibility ahead; I'll have my share of challenges in the future.

After the fun was over, we packed our bags, opening our suitcases and scattering all the odds and ends on the floor. Those little items carried all the memories of the first half of our lives.

We picked up each item, told its story, and then put it away in its proper place.

"Why are you still keeping this yearbook? The paper is of such good quality."

"I can't lose it. I can still remember the scene where you imitated me and made me write it, and you still have that smell that only little kids have."

"I don't smell bad."

He framed the yearbook filled with his name and placed it next to the TV, along with a red knitted flower.

We chatted and joked around until we got hungry, so we sat down on the sofa again. I crossed my legs and patted them, and he plopped down next to me, adjusting to a comfortable position. Then we looked at our phones again.

"Hey, can you cook?"

The surrounding food delivery options and the area near the school were all pretty much the same. After about ten minutes, he looked up and asked me.

“I can learn.”

"So you don't know how?"

"That's not entirely true."

"Okay, okay."

The small kitchen area has not yet been explored by the two future chefs, but just thinking about how they can cook and get up early every day to make breakfast for my brother would be a wonderful thing.

Finally, we ordered ramen and continued tidying up our little place while we waited.

The things we brought from home slowly filled this new space. Looking at every corner, we could see our traces, as if we had really lived here for a long time.

My brother said he'll go to the furniture market tomorrow to see if there's anything he needs to buy.

His self-media business is also thriving. Various partners are asking him to shoot videos, and some of their quotes are so high that they startled me. Every time Su Yu makes money, he transfers some to me.

With each stroke to the left and right, my little treasury has grown considerably.

But I won't spend it; I'll save it for something big.

After dinner, we went downstairs for a walk. This place, nestled between mountains and water, is truly wonderful. Children were playing and frolicking on the vast lawn. It was a beautiful day, with flowers in bloom and trees in full bloom.

As the sunset painted the sky, we strolled along the circular lake, occasionally spotting kites flying in the air, which we would then photograph with our phones.

That's wonderful. I would love to live like this every day from now on.

Before going home, I went to a convenience store to buy "essential items." Su Yu repeatedly said it was okay, but the more he did that, the more worried I became about his health.

How did I end up with a master with such strong desires?

He was sullen, so I followed behind him, nagging on and on. I didn't feel tired when we got home. As soon as I closed the door, he turned around and kissed me.

"Go take a shower, and then we'll consecrate our house. Hmm?"

With such a petty thought, who would have imagined installing such a large mirror in front of the bathtub?

He stripped naked and emerged from the water, then pulled me down with him.

...

I must say, Su Yu has a really good eye for choosing a four-piece bedding set. The fluffy sheets and blankets make you feel instantly enveloped in a gentle embrace, and they even have a sweet milky scent.

I hugged Su Yu and sniffed him thoroughly; he smelled wonderful, his whole body was fragrant.

The atmosphere was right, and Su Yu insisted on not wearing it, and no one else was allowed to wear it either. He even wanted to throw away the one he had just bought.

Unable to resist his teasing, he changed the color of the light and opened the curtains by the French windows, and we presented our first gift to our new home.

As dawn broke, before I was fully awake, my mind was already on cooking for him. I woke up imagining a warm and cozy scene, while Su Yu was still asleep.

I pulled it out, and he made a sound of discomfort before falling asleep again.

What breakfast doesn't count as eating? Now that things have come to this, I'm going to enjoy this delicious meal in front of me.

"Holy crap... what are you doing..." Su Yu finally woke up and looked at me in disbelief.

"Eat breakfast."

"You're really something..."

Time ticked by, and Su wanted to go to the toilet. I readily agreed and took him to the bathroom, holding his legs.

He called me sick.

I went downstairs to buy breakfast, and he was sitting at the table, dressed neatly, just like when he was in elementary school, always well-behaved.

Having finalized our plans for the day, we headed out before the morning rush hour.

There were many people around our age here. This place is huge. We ate something quick for lunch and then picked out some new and interesting things.

"Hello, are you 'Little Fish'?" A strange but friendly voice came from beside me. A handsome young man, dressed impeccably, was asking my brother.

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"Ah, I really like your... uh, your videos, I can talk to you..."

He pointed to the phone that could be used to open a jewelry store.

"Shall we take a picture?"

"certainly."

The boy asked me to take pictures for them, so I took a bunch. Then he asked my brother if he could post them.

Su Yu thought for a moment and said yes.

"Uh...is this yours?"

"Boy friend."

Su Yu stared straight into the boy's eyes, and the boy raised an eyebrow, smirked, and gave an "OK" sign, as if the two were exchanging secret signals.

The boy said he wouldn't tell anyone, and Su Yu nodded to him before saying goodbye.

Boy friend……

I was so immersed in the song and the identity I was in that song that I couldn't pull myself away. Su Yu smacked me to bring me back to my senses.

"Brother, why didn't you say it was your younger brother?"

"If they knew you were my boyfriend first, even if I told them you were my younger brother, they would still think we were flirting."

"If I seriously told you that this is my younger brother, and then found out you're my boyfriend, we'd both be tortured."

"I see!"

I didn't quite understand.

After returning home and arranging the various small and large items I bought, it was time to face the real start of the school year.

I get up at 8 a.m. every week, and Su Yu gets up at 8 a.m. every two days.

I have a habit of drinking a large glass of water before going to sleep so that I don't have to set an alarm to wake Su Yu in the morning. Every time I open my eyes and see my lovely sleeping sweetheart next to me, the sense of responsibility and happiness that wells up in my heart is irresistible.

It's as if I'm not going out to attend classes, but to earn money to support my family.

Su Yu would occasionally scold me for sneaking away without waking him up and not letting him kiss her.

My dearest Yu Yu! How could I bear to disturb my sleeping angel!

Having grown accustomed to the peaceful life of a young couple, doing laundry, cooking, and going to school every day, and occasionally taking a walk with a cup of milk tea, if they also had a cat, dog, or bird, their life would be as comfortable as a perfect balance of happiness and contentment.

Before the small animals arrived, two higher animals burst in with their enthusiasm.

That day, Su Yu and I had just finished exploring the living room and kitchen. Everywhere we went was a mess, and the air was filled with an irresistible aroma.

A video call disrupted my carefully planned aftercare.

"Your dad and I are downstairs at your building. What floor is it again? Let's go up and take a look."

? ? ?

Su Yu's eyes went from hazy to clear. I was still wearing the shirt he had specially made too small for me, and when I heard this, two buttons popped off.

There was no time for further explanations. I quickly tidied up the house and only went downstairs to meet my parents after seeing Su Yu open the window.

"This is really nicely arranged... What's wrong with you two? You have no taste and you even bought cheap perfume. It smells awful."

"Hahaha, I bought it, I bought it! That perfume looks pretty good."

Su Yu took the perfume down from the wall.

"It's alright for the two of you to live together."

The property reviewers gave us very high praise.

"Why is this bedroom so clean? Is your brother sleeping here?"

"Yes, Yu Yu is a bit taller than me, and that spacious and bright room is his room."

"Let me go take a look."

The two of them enthusiastically examined my room, and unsurprisingly, they also became curious about the small space separated by thick curtains.

What's in this cabinet?

"My smelly socks and clothes, you won't be able to stand it if you open them, Mom!"

If we can get through this hygiene education, Su Yu and I will be able to preserve our happiness.

To our surprise, the two product sharing ambassadors also brought us a pot for hot pot and various meatballs and vegetables.

I plugged in the power and ran downstairs to buy a large can of Coke. They were originally going on a business trip today and had booked high-speed rail tickets for a later date, so they just stopped by to see us.

The food in the pot bubbled and floated to the surface. Dad gave us a stern lecture for not having any decent seasonings in the kitchen. After taking out sesame paste, minced garlic, and other unexpected ingredients from his briefcase, he made us a delicious dipping sauce.

After a satisfying meal, we raised our large glasses of cola and toasted.

Seeing that the main core members of the Su family were present and in high spirits, I shouted, "Brother, I love you!"

Su Yu was almost defeated by Coke, and her mother downed it in one gulp: "You love your brother the most, you've always loved your brother the most since you were little. But he passed the CET-4 exam, and you still failed your final exam. Why don't you learn from him..."

Great, she didn't think too much about it, and I don't need to worry about my dad's simple-mindedness at all.

Before leaving, the two Gods of Wealth transferred a large sum of money to us, saying that now that they had families of their own, they needed to learn how to manage their living expenses. Anticipating that we wouldn't accept it, the Gods of Wealth said that if we didn't accept it, they would come to our door in person in the future.

I accepted it without hesitation.

"Is this box full of trash? I'll take it with me..."

"No need! Those are the papers we need to hand in to school tomorrow!"

Who is speaking so loudly?

I?

Hmph, it's Su Yu.

His mother was startled, thinking it was some important homework, and left without touching it.

We dropped them off at the subway station before heading back.

When Su Yu got home, she opened the box, and inside were... photos he had collected of every time they had been together!

I know he likes to have fun, but printing this much stuff is really reckless.

There's another amazing thing about the layout of our house: there's an inner room, inside what's called "Su Yu's room." It's a hidden world there, and according to Su Yu's plan, she might do some cosplay or something like that in the future.

"What did you mean by saying that while you were eating? It scared me to death."

"One small step for me, one giant leap for our love."

"Get out of here... it's not the right time yet."

...

"I have to wait until I'm completely settled and making money."

I think I understand why Qiu Jiajia read the novel with tears streaming down her face and told me that she must achieve financial freedom.
