Double standards

A group of people chased each other and sang all the way to the farmhouse. The farmhouse was built on an artificial lake halfway up the mountain. There were five wooden houses, one for each area, surrounding the edge of the lake. The wooden houses were connected by bridges. Each wooden house was equipped with barbecue and hot pot equipment, swings, and net chairs. The lake in the center was a swimming pool, and there was a three-meter-wide artificial river outside the wooden houses, where various fish were raised for people to fish and entertain.

It is October now, and the weather is so hot that it seems to be baking the earth, but here in the farmhouse, there is a gentle breeze, which is particularly comfortable.

As soon as Jiang Zhe arrived, he put on his swimming trunks and went swimming.

The girls cursed at each other, but they still took out the ingredients prudently and started a fire to prepare for the barbecue.

Zou Weichen opened the incubator, took out the drinks he had bought, and handed them to everyone one by one. Shan Yun lay in the net chair and didn't want to move. Zou Weichen handed him the drink. Shan Yun took it and took a sip, saying, "It's so cool, drinking drinks, fishing, eating barbecue, and feeling the breeze. This life is so good."

Jixiang is a fishing enthusiast. As soon as he arrived, he started to fiddle with the fishing rod. Zou Weichen also came over and helped him to fix the fishing rod and prepare the bait. Then the two of them sat in chairs, drinking drinks and fishing.

"I didn't expect you to be so skilled in handling fishing rods and bait." Jixiang fixed his fishing rod.

"I sometimes go fishing on the weekends." Zou Weichen put the bait on the hook and swung the fishing rod into the water. He then gave the rod a few tugs before securing it.

Jixiang knew that Zou Weichen also fished, but he didn't expect that he loved it so much.

In the future, there will be one more person with whom I can go fishing, but the other person’s consent is required. Jixiang looked back at Shan Yun.

"Why are you looking at me?" Shan Yun looked at Jixiang, "Why are you worried that you can't beat Achen?"

"A double standard person." Jixiang complained. He had asked Shan Yun to go fishing before, but Shan Yun always said fishing was the most boring thing in the world, but he ended up following Zou Weichen happily.

"Who is double-standard?" Jiang Zhe ran over, took a skewer of barbecue and asked.

"He's talking about me." Shan Yun was leisurely drinking his drink and browsing his phone, not caring about Jixiang's complaints.

"Mr. Yun, your cell phone screen seems to be M high." Jiang Zhe was sharp-eyed and saw the cell phone screen that flashed by Shan Yun.

"The one about riding a bicycle seems... um... "

Before Jiang Zhe could finish his words, Dan Yun interrupted him.

Wang Bingyan was very sharp-eared. She immediately dropped her chopsticks and ran over to grab Shan Yun's phone. Nong Chan also ran over. The two of them looked at the phone screen and smiled meaningfully at Shan Yun.

"Why are you covering my mouth?" Jiang Zhe pried Shan Yun's hands apart. "Who is it? Why can't you tell me?"

Shan Yun let go of his hand and sat back in the net chair. Anyway, everyone knew about his relationship with Zou Weichen, so there was no need to hide it.

"Who else could it be except the number one scholar?"

"So that's how it is. But, Master Yun, why did you put up Brother Chen's photo? And your WeChat profile pictures, why did you change them all? You each have a cat, one black and one white. Do you want to be the Black and White Demons? Then putting up the Black and White Impermanence would be cooler."

Several people looked at Jiang Zhe as if he were a fool.

Doesn't this person seem suspicious at all?

"You know what, this photo is really well taken. It seems to be winter, when school starts?" Nong Chan looked at the photo carefully.

"Oh, so you came here so early..." Wang Bingyan pointed at Shan Yun and smiled as if to show that this was the case.

Zou Weichen supported his head and looked at Shan Yun.

Shan Yun waved his hands and said, "That was just an accidental shot."

Wang Bingyan turned around and took the first plate of barbecue, and snatched it directly from Sheet Yun. He lay there, drinking drinks and eating barbecue, looking extremely leisurely.

After a while, the second plate of barbecue was ready, and Nong Chan took it to Zou Weichen and the others.

"It's ready."

Jixiang took a skewer and started eating it. Zou Weichen was still working on his fishing rod. Nongchan squatted beside him and asked, "In the photo, you are wearing a white jacket and blue jeans. When was that taken?"

"Are you collecting materials again?" Jixiang complained beside him.

"What are you talking about?" Zou Weichen suddenly felt a weight behind him, and then someone grabbed his neck. He tilted his face slightly, and Shan Yun's profile enlarged in front of him.

Zou Weichen hurriedly turned around.

Shan Yun picked up a skewer of barbecue and continued to eat, but his other hand was still around Zou Weichen's neck, and almost his entire body was leaning on Zou Weichen's back.

"Just ask me, on the day you return to school after winter vacation."

When Nong Chan saw that Shan Yun did it on purpose, she stood up and said with a smile, "Okay, I won't bother you anymore," and then she took a few steps back.

With a click, Wang Bingyan took the photo and said with a smile, "Take a photo as a souvenir."

"Are you so easily fooled by them?" Zou Weichen tapped Shan Yun's forehead.

Shan Yun rubbed his forehead where he had been tapped, then turned around and sat down next to Zou Weichen.

Wang Bingyan took out her cell phone and started taking pictures everywhere, taking pictures of Jixiang and Jiang Zhe in the swimming pool.

Zou Weichen glanced at Shan Yun who was raising his fist towards Wang Bingyan's camera, and pushed his elbow back hard. Shan Yun stepped back in pain and let go of his hand. This scene was captured by Wang Bingyan.

"So cruel?" Shan Yun covered his abdomen.

Zou Weichen pulled up the fishing rod, and a carp was hooked, struggling in midair. He reeled in the fishing line, took the fish off the hook, put it in a bucket, and pushed it in front of Shan Yun, "Kill the fish, we'll grill it later."

"Oh." Shan Yun took the bucket to the faucet, squatted beside the bucket, looked at the fish struggling in the bucket, and didn't know where to start. He had never done much housework since he was a child. He had eaten a lot of fish, but had never killed a fish.

"And these two." Jixiang brought over two more fish to finish the job.

Shan Yun looked at him sadly, but Jixiang ignored him and went back to fishing.

The boss came over and said with a smile, "Young man, do you want me to help you?"

"Yes, yes, yes, thank you, sister." Shan Yun hurriedly stood up and let the boss do the fishing. He turned around and took a fishing rod to learn how to fish.

Zou Weichen saw him standing beside him, turned around and looked at the faucet, and knew everything.

"How do I do this?"

"First, you put the bait on the hook, then throw it out, and when the float on the water moves, the fish will be hooked." Zou Weichen described the whole process in one sentence.

Shan Yun squatted down, holding the fishing hook in one hand, but he didn't know where to start. There were two boxes of bait in front of him. One was a bunch of moving earthworms, which gave him goosebumps. The other box looked like a pile of mud.

He used the fishhook to hook the mud-like bait, but couldn't get a single drop of it. Zou Weichen also squatted down to add more bait, and when he saw Shan Yun's funny movements, he chuckled.

Shan Yun raised his head. He still liked to see Zou Weichen smile like this, with his white teeth and his eyes slightly crooked when he smiled.

"Don't understand?"

Shan Yun nodded.

"What kind of bait would you like to use?"

Shan Yun pointed at the mud-like bait, and he would never touch the moving earthworm. Zou Weichen reached out and grabbed a small ball of bait, rolled it into a ball, and then inserted the fish hook into it, rolled it back and forth several times, and passed it to Shan Yun.

Shan Yun followed his example, picked up a small ball of bait, rolled it into a ball, and then inserted the hook into the fish. However, the bait scattered as soon as the hook was inserted. He did it again, and the bait still scattered.

Zou Weichen grabbed a handful and put it on Shan Yun's bait, then held Shan Yun's hands from the outside and asked him to cover them. "Put more, and use some force when covering them, but be careful not to get hooked."

Zou Weichen's hands were warm, his fingers were long, his nails were neatly trimmed, and there was fish bait on his hands. When he held Shan Yun's hand, some of the bait stuck to the back of Shan Yun's hand. Shan Yun looked at the hands of the two people and let Zou Weichen manipulate his hands.

Zou Weichen suddenly stopped holding Shan Yun's hand. Shan Yun looked up and their eyes converged. Looking at Zou Weichen's face from such a close distance, his eyelashes were long and curled up. Zou Weichen loosened his hand, stood up, turned his head and coughed twice.

Only then did he realize that Shan Yun did it on purpose.

"It's stuck." Shan Yun looked down at the bait in his palm. The residual warmth left by Zou Weichen on the back of his hand gradually dissipated.

Shan Yun imitated Zou Weichen's movements, threw out the fishing line, fixed the fishing rod, sat aside and waited, and did not forget to exclaim: "It turns out that fishing is so interesting."

Jixiang put the fish he had just caught into the bucket, glanced at Shan Yun, and said deliberately: "Fishing is the most boring thing in the world."

Shan Yun said casually: "Who said that? How ignorant?"

"What do you think?" Jixiang stared at him.

Shan Yun just remembered that he had said this to Jixiang before. He stuck out his tongue at Jixiang and hid on the other side of Zou Weichen.

After waiting for half an hour, Zou Weichen caught a fish and Jixiang caught two. They even had time to grill the fish, but his fishing rod didn't move at all.

"Ahhhhh, why is there no movement at all on my buoy?" Shan Yun roared.

Zou Weichen picked up his fishing rod, tugged on the line, and then reeled it in, saying, "The fish have eaten all the bait."

Jixiang couldn't help but complain on the other side: "This river is artificially constructed. Even if the boss puts fish in, you can't catch any."

Shan Yun leaned over, grabbed a small ball of fish bait, rolled it into a ball and threw it to Jixiang. Unexpectedly, Jixiang raised his hand to catch it, then threw the bait into the water. Several fish immediately swam over to grab it.

"Come and eat." Wang Bingyan shouted.

With the joint efforts of the two girls, Jixiang and Jiangzhe, the table was filled with lunch, including barbecue, snacks, grilled fish and snacks.

Several people sat around a table, talking and laughing, sometimes complaining about their former teachers, sometimes complaining about their current lives, and sometimes chatting about gossip about classmates. Wang Bingyan set up a cell phone stand, and everyone took their first group photo.

After eating and drinking, they started swimming. Jiang Zhe jumped directly into the water. The two girls did not hesitate either. They pinched their noses and jumped directly into the water. After coming out of the water, they swam to the shore and took up their phones to take selfies.

Zou Weichen took off his shirt and stood by the water. Shan Yun stood beside him without knowing when, looking into the distance, "Did you do that on purpose?"

"Huh?" Zou Weichen was confused.

"Want to show off your abdominal muscles?" Shan Yun patted Zou Weichen's abdomen.

"You're taking advantage of me. You've seen me and touched me, but you're still not satisfied?" Zou Weichen took away his restless hands.

Shan Yun hummed a few words.

Fortunately, there were not many people coming to this villa, otherwise he would have to ask Zou Weichen to put on a shirt.

Don't even let me see it.
