Chapter 55 He Likes You and Wanted to Confess His Love in a More Romantic Place...

"Ye Man!" Jiang Hao shouted.

He heard the man talking about a date or something, and saw an expression on Ye Man's face that he had never seen before.

It's not the sweet smile that appears often and can easily catch other people's eyes, nor is it the provocative, vicious, and wicked smile that occasionally appears when others are not looking, making people angry... It is a very restrained and subtle arc.

He turned his head away, no longer proudly showing his breathtakingly beautiful face in front of people, but he was more heart-stirring than ever before. However, that emotion did not belong to Jiang Hao, but to another man.

With a painful and complicated mood, he shouted, "Ye Man, your pencil case! I found your favorite thing for you!"

He took a few steps forward, holding up the pencil case from many years ago, and emphasized with particular emphasis that it was Ye Man's favorite.

Only two or three years later, the styles that were fashionable at the time have become so old-fashioned that they are no longer attractive and would be laughed at if worn anywhere.

Besides, at their age, why would they still need a pencil case?

But Jiang Hao knew Ye Man would want it, this was a gift from his mother. Ye Man was so hostile to him, but when he brought him a chocolate wafer one day, the next day he saw that the bag was still in his paper box. As long as it was a gift from someone, even if it was given to him casually, he would treasure it like a treasure.

Besides, he had said something a little harsh that day. He told him to go back home, asked him why he had to rob others without his own parents, said he was a poor bug who was unwanted and unloved, and even snatched his pencil case and stepped on it hard... But it wasn't all because his basketball interest class was cancelled.

It was clearly him who was smiling and asking for candy from his buddy the day before, and he had even told him not to talk to them, but he still went up to him... He could obviously have bought it from him, so why didn't he ask for it?

He just didn't want Ye Man to be better to others than to him.

No matter what, they still had the friendship of living under the same roof and growing up together. Ye Man had even asked him to play ball with him. No matter how bad it was... No matter how bad it was, Ye Man still liked his parents. He had left so decisively at the beginning, but today he came here to eat because of his parents.

Ye Man's head was a mess, and he finally raised his head which was almost buried in his clothes, just because of a thread floating out of Jiang Hao's voice.

The person was stunned and had no reaction to what the other person said.

Jiang Hao continued, "Ye Man, when I settle down in Xucheng, I...I will come back to see you during the holidays, and we will play basketball together again. You used to like watching me play basketball, and I will play with you. I can also buy you a lot of the chocolate you used to want to eat. If your new family treats you badly, you still come to my house——"

Xu Huaiting clearly saw the boy's hostile look towards him. He narrowed his eyes, curled the corners of his mouth silently, raised his finger and touched Ye Man's ear, but did not take it away. He just let it rest there and stroked it from time to time.

"Xiao Man, he...your childhood sweetheart is calling you, can you answer him?"

Ye Man felt a little itchy when he touched her, so she dodged for a moment, then came back hesitantly.

What did Jiang Hao say?

"Oh, a pencil case."

Jiang Hao's heart suddenly turned cold.

Ye Man stretched out his hand: "Give it to me."

Before the pencil case reached his hand, the hand on his ear squeezed a little harder.

Ye Man shuddered.

I wanted to tell him to stop pinching his ears because they are a little sensitive and touching is the limit; pinching is not an option.

After thinking for a while, he just said unhappily, "Be gentle."

"Sorry." Xu Huaiting took the pencil case from Jiang Hao and handed it to him.

Although it was handed over by Xu Huaiting, Ye Man still accepted the pencil case, and Jiang Hao's heart warmed up again.

He was just about to say that if Ye Man was still angry, he could keep apologizing until he was satisfied, any way would do. Why couldn't the little mistakes and problems from his youth be resolved? He was just ignorant at the time and didn't know how to treat someone he liked correctly. Why couldn't he be given another chance?

But then, a chill spread from the soles of my feet to the top of my head.

Ye Man opened the old, yellowed pencil case and took out a photo from the hidden and inconspicuous compartment.

Then he casually threw the pencil case back to Jiang Hao and said calmly, "Thank you for keeping it for so long. I don't want the pencil case anymore. If you like it, keep it. If you don't like it, throw it away. Let's go. Uncle Jiang and Aunt Wang will be very worried."

He doesn't want a broken pencil case that has been thrown into the trash can.

Ye Man didn't understand Jiang Hao's train of thought. Aunt Wang gave him a pencil case, and he was very happy and treasured it, but he wouldn't treasure it so much that he would pick it up even if it became trash.

He maintained his composure on the surface, but in his heart he was secretly scolding the system: "Brother Tong, he must have thought that I like to pick up trash. He even took out a pencil case that he no longer wanted to humiliate me!"

"I've only picked up mineral water bottles and bread thrown out by the bakery at night. I would never pick up pencil cases!" Ye Man shouted angrily.

The system looked up at the sky: "I think, maybe, probably, he didn't mean that."

"He is!" Ye Man cried, "Brother Tong, why don't you stand on my side and speak for him!"

The system has a headache: "Okay, okay, he humiliated you, he is so bad!"

Ye Man continued to snort: "If it weren't for Aunt Wang and Uncle Jiang, I wouldn't let him go so easily. I will definitely make him suffer the consequences!"

But Ye Man is not the kind of person who would just run away if someone threw his pencil case in front of him.

Jiang Hao will never know——

"I went back in the middle of the night and stole his homework book, and I did it without anyone noticing," Ye Man sneered grimly, "For five subjects' homework, he will be scolded five times. No teacher will believe that his homework book was stolen. Even if he guessed that it was me, even if he said my name and talked a lot, the teacher would only think it was an excuse for him not to do his homework."

"I hid in a corner and observed him the next day. He came back crying."

For Ye Man, it was such an easy thing to make a strong and healthy sports student cry.

"Brother Tong, I'm not exaggerating, but when it comes to being a vicious cannon fodder, have you ever seen anyone more talented than me?"

System: "......"

Why is it so dark?

Ye Man: "Brother Tong, what about my share?"

System: “Beep.”

Ye Man was very happy.

However, this happiness only lasted until he got into Xu Huaiting's car.

After seeing off the Jiang family, Ye Man got into Xu Huaiting's car.

The ancestor hadn't spoken to him since he got on the car, and the atmosphere in the car was extremely depressing.

Ye Man sat in his seat and could only hear some trivial noises from the people around him.

"Raise your hands." Xu Huaiting came over and fastened his seat belt for him.

A breath came in front of him, the man's voice was flat and no emotion could be heard.

"Xu...Ricardo, are you angry?"

Xu Huaiting froze, "No."

Ye Man said with certainty: "You are angry." He asked in confusion: "Why are you angry? Because... before I said that we are good brothers?"

"It's not because of this." Xu Huaiting continued to fasten his seat belt with his head down. He didn't know what was wrong with the seat belt today and he couldn't fasten it for a long time.

"What is that?"

This seat belt is so hard to buckle.

Xu Huaiting simply loosened the belt, letting it retract, and raised his eyelids to look at the person in front of him.

"You didn't plan to come to see me before, because of that family? Or because of that boy, your childhood sweetheart?"

Ye Man was indeed planning not to meet Xu Huaiting because of Uncle Jiang's family, but when it came out of the other person's mouth, it somehow sounded weird.

"He is not my childhood sweetheart." Ye Man retorted seriously.

But Xu Huaiting was not happy at all when he heard it.

"So you really didn't come to see me because of him, right?" He straightened his lips, "You two seem to know each other very well."

He lowered his head and continued to work on his hands. "He knows a lot about you that I don't know."

"Is there any problem with this?" Ye Man was even more confused.

"He likes you."

"The kind of love that makes me want to fall in love with you."

Ye Man was stunned. After a moment, his chest rose and fell violently, and he said angrily: "You are talking nonsense!"

He had never spoken so loudly to Xu Huaiting, this living ancestor, which showed that he was really angry, but he was so angry that he didn't care too much.

Xu Huaiting was also very angry.

He said in a cold voice: "He likes you."

Ye Man: “Impossible!”

Xu Huaiting: "He just likes you, he wants to pursue you, he wants to fall in love with you, he even wants to confess to you in front of me, if I hadn't come quickly... you even planned not to come see me because of him, can't I be unhappy?"

Ye Man grabbed Xu Huaiting's clothes, and Xu Huaiting sank down because of him. He had to support the back of the chair with his elbows, and the two of them got closer.

Ye Man couldn't help raising his voice: "You... don't talk nonsense, do you think I'm a fool? Can't I tell whether he likes me or not? How can he like me when he's like that!"

"Can't I?"

"No!" Ye Man retorted fiercely: "You should like me in this way——"

The loud quarrel stopped abruptly at this moment.

Ye Man seemed unable to understand what she had said. Her eyes widened and her hands, which were grabbing Xu Huaiting's collar, were shaking.

Xu Huaiting also fell silent.

The only sounds in the car were the rising and falling breathing and heartbeats of the two people.

After a while, Xu Huaiting said calmly: "You are right."

He was like a fire that had been extinguished, and all his anger disappeared. Ye Man's eyes widened even more, and he saw a vague shadow covering him.

The car was pressed and sank to one side.

His back was pressed against the car door and a hand gently lifted his chin.

Hot breath sprayed on the lips.

He kissed him.

They kissed, separated, and then came close again, rubbing and biting the lips lightly.

Ye Man's hands gripping Xu Huaiting's collar loosely and tightly, his body slowly softened, and he had to let go of his collar and instead hold onto his shoulders and neck.

I don't know how much time passed before the burning breath slightly dissipated.

Ye Man said nothing, but lowered her eyes, saying nothing, her face from cheeks to ears was red.

There was a layer of crystal-clear moisture on his plump lips, which were very kissable. With a gloomy expression, Xu Huaiting rubbed and pressed his red and slightly swollen lips with his fingertips.

"Xiao Man," Xu Huaiting said in a hoarse voice, "I originally wanted to confess my love to you in a more romantic and beautiful place, but now I can only let you hear these words in a car."

The finger pressing on his lips applied a little more force: "This is all your fault. My carefully planned confession was messed up."

"Xiaoman, I——"

Ye Man's heart skipped a beat, and he covered his mouth in panic, "Then don't say anything! It hasn't been smashed yet, you are not allowed to say anything! Take it back! Take it back now! I don't know anything!"

Xu Huaiting ruthlessly took his hand away: "It's too late. Since you already know it, there's no point in me hiding it. Xiaoman, I like--"

The person under him raised his chin, hugged his neck, and tried to kiss him recklessly, "Don't say it, don't say it..."

Xu Huaiting grabbed his waist, held the back of his head, and deepened the kiss.

All right.
