Even Ning City's most famous gay bar is deserted at two or three o'clock in the afternoon.
Chen Youhan and the boss Qiao Chu were old acquaintances. To some extent, the two of them had similar interests and became best friends for a while. The bar was not yet open for business, and the lights were not turned on. The night's bright lights and wine were now shrouded in a gray light. Behind the bar, a waiter lowered his head and wiped the glasses.
The tall figure sat down on a high chair. Chen Youhan knocked on the table and asked for a glass of whiskey. "Where's Qiao Chu?"
Qiao Chu happened to come out from the backcourt and saw that he was alone. He understood and deliberately said, "Hey, what's going on today? No one is with you?"
"Sent off." Chen Youhan curled the corners of his lips: "I noticed that you are very concerned about my emotional state. Why, do you want to give it a try with me?"
Qiao Chu had long been accustomed to his bad behavior of not being able to spit out ivory from a dog's mouth, and he said nonsense to him: "I heard that the queue waiting for you stretches from here all the way to Xijiang Avenue, and you don't even care about it?"
"Since when did you become a pimp part-time?"
"Look at what you said. Haven't I been working hard to promote the pimping business?"
The floating ice made a crisp sound when it hit the wall of the cup. Chen Youhan took a sip and said, "I'm not interested recently."
"I'm not interested," Qiao Chu said in a long tone, "——or is it not possible?"
Chen Youhan cursed with a smile, then lit the lighter in his hand. The flame flickered, and he lit the cigarette and took a deep puff.
The smoke blurred his lowered face. He changed his mind and said nonchalantly, "Forget it, I'll introduce a few to you."
"Just say it earlier! Why are you being so reserved in front of your buddy?" Qiao Chu waved and called someone, "Go, call that guy? Xiaojiu! Call him and tell him that Young Master Chen wants to see him."
Chen Youhan held the cigarette between his fingers and squinted his eyes and asked, "Are you selling yourself?"
"Just kidding, it's a student."
"student?"
Qiao Chu knew what he meant and quickly proved his innocence: "Don't look at me like that. You're an adult, and this is your first time."
"You introduced her to me for the first time. You're really good at ruining people." Chen Youhan is a very particular person. He doesn't want girls with a clear price tag, girls with a bad reputation, or virgins, not to mention the girls' physical conditions such as looks and figure. He is really a playboy when it comes to having sex.
"He likes you. He asks you every day whether Young Master Chen is here today. It's been almost a month. He looks good, but you shouldn't be too beastly." Qiao Chu patted his shoulder with the back of his hand, as if to say, "Take care of yourself."
Chen Youhan laughed so hard that he couldn't even hold his cigarette. He choked and coughed as he laughed: "Is that how you look at me?"
Qiao Chu wanted to say a few more words, but when he looked up, he saw a man standing at the door against the light. He was a tall and thin boy who wanted to come in but didn't dare to. The lights in the bar were not fully turned on, so the boy's face was not clearly visible, but his figure was vaguely outlined, tall and thin, and he looked good.
Qiao Chu laughed: "Xiao Jiu? What a coincidence! Come in!"
The boy took two steps, but before he could get close, Boss Qiao grabbed his arm and pushed him in front of Chen Youhan, exposing his snowy face to the light. He pursed his lips tightly, not daring to look at Chen Youhan, so he had to lower his eyes, only occasionally raising them to take a glance, and then quickly lowering them again.
Chen Youhan smiled, as if he was really a student.
"Come, let me introduce you. This is Xiaojiu, Xiaojiu. I don't need to say much to you, Mr. Chen, right?" Qiao Chu smiled very ambiguously.
Chen Youhan put out his cigarette and held out his hand: "Chen Youhan."
A circle of white shirt cuffs reached his wrists, the sapphire cuffs reflected the light, and the well-tailored suit wrapped around his arms. Following the arm upward, the first thing I saw was the curve of the neck and the man's Adam's apple. Xiaojiu's face flushed immediately, and he was too shy to take Chen Youhan's hand. When Boss Qiao pushed him, he woke up from his dream, stretched out half of his arm, gently shook it in Chen Youhan's large palm, and quickly retracted it.
Qiao Chu was quite embarrassed. The fresh students were indeed different from those slick-talking little boys. Although he liked them, he still didn't know how to handle them. He half-jokingly said, "Mr. Chen, do you have thorns on your hands? That's why you retracted your hands so quickly."
Chen Youhan smiled and said, "Ignore him." Then he put his arm around the man's shoulders and asked, "Have you eaten?"
Xiaojiu said no, so Chen Youhan took him out to eat. Before leaving, Qiao Chu winked at him, and Chen Youhan raised his hand and gave him the middle finger.
Chen Youhan was checking the work group on her phone when the sound of a shower came from the bathroom.
That child was really obedient for the first time. He allowed himself to be manipulated and then quietly cleaned up by himself without any pampering. This was the first time Chen Youhan had met such an obedient person.
The sound of the shower stopped. After a while, the bathroom light went out, and Xiaojiu walked to the sofa in front of the French window with a little bit of moisture left. After hesitating for a while, he carefully approached and rubbed Chen Youhan's arm, wanting to hug him.
Chen Youhan stretched out his arm to embrace the man, without taking his eyes off his phone. After a while, he went to find some water to drink, and when he tilted his head, he saw Xiaojiu's puppy-like eyes.
Qiao Chu was right, she was very obedient. If she was very obedient, she would be very straightforward when breaking up, so there would be no need for Ye Kai——
This was a very abrupt and unreasonable association. Chen Youhan was slightly startled. He put down his phone and asked without any context, "Are you still in school?"
This was the first time he took the initiative to ask something. Xiaojiu's eyes lit up and he answered quickly: "Yes, I'm a senior in Tianyi."
...Is this the only school in Ning City?
"I heard you like me."
"like."
"Why?"
This question made Xiao Jiu stunned. His blank expression was a bit pitiful: "It's just... I like it."
Chen Youhan smiled: "Then do you understand me?"
"...I don't quite understand." He said timidly and honestly.
Seeing that Chen Youhan didn't say anything, Xiao Jiu added: "I only heard..." He looked at Chen Youhan's face and carefully considered his words: "They said that Chen Shao looked like a playboy, but he had someone in his heart."
This was an unexpected answer. Chen Youhan laughed: "Me? Someone in your heart?"
Xiao Jiu nodded. Some things about Chen Youhan were spread in the circle. He picked out the interesting ones and said, "They all said... that you often disappeared after answering a phone call. One time, you even left after taking a cold shower."
Chen Youhan did not comment.
"And..."
"What?"
Xiaojiu mustered up the courage and said, "Say you have an illegitimate child."
Chen Youhan was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter and raised his hand to rub Xiaojiu's soft head.
There's no other meaning to it, it's just like rubbing his Alaskan dog, he just does it when he's happy.
He remembered the time when he took a cold shower. Ye Kai lost the baseball game and called him to vent his anger, blaming him for not going to the game. Chen Youhan still remembered the aggrieved and aggressive look on the phone. At that time, he did leave his bedmate and run away.
Recalling this, Chen Youhan let go of Xiaojiu and bent down to pick up the wrinkled shirt from the sofa.
"You..." He swallowed the four words "Brother Youhan" without any sense of propriety and said, "Mr. Chen, are you leaving?"
Chen Youhan said "hmm", picked up his phone and car keys, and said, "Call me when you have time."
These words diluted the loss in Xiaojiu's heart. He immediately pricked up his ears and perked up like a puppy being caressed by its owner.
The lights in the dormitory were off when the phone vibrated. Ye Kai had just laid down. The light from the screen illuminated half of his face, leaving a spot of light on the tip of his upturned nose. He glanced at the caller ID, picked up the phone and lowered his voice: "Hello?"
Chen Youhan's originally chaotic heart magically calmed down when he heard this. He leaned against the lamp post, half tilted his head to look at the dark window not far away, and habitually held a cigarette between his fingers.
"Asleep?"
"No, I was just getting ready for bed. What are you doing?" I could hear his suspicion even through the phone: "Are you causing trouble again?"
Chen Youhan smiled silently: "No, I was very good today, brother."
Ye Kai paused, threw back the quilt, got up, and opened the tightly closed balcony door. His voice was gently drowned out by the sound of the door being pushed and pulled.
In the darkness of the night, he curved his eyes and said, "Okay, brother."
"Since my little brother is so good, does he have any reward?"
"What do you want?"
Chen Youhan thought about it, the red light of the cigarette butt burning quietly in the dark night. After a while, he whispered: "Nothing, I just really want to see you."
Ye Kai's heart skipped a beat and he opened his mouth slightly, speechless.
"Speak." In the night, Chen Youhan's voice was deep and gentle. He urged with an unquestionable command.
"...The lights are off." He avoided the question.
"I'm not blind."
"……I slept!"
"On the balcony." I, Chen Youhan, easily exposed him, "Come, look to the left, I'm at the east gate."
Ye Kai leaned out of the balcony and looked to the left. His dormitory building was next to the back door of the school, and he saw a person standing under the street lamp in the distance, with his long legs crossed and his back against the lamp post, leaving him a neat silhouette.
Chen Youhan raised his voice and resumed his nonchalant tone: "Have you seen enough? My legs are sore from standing so much."
Ye Kaixin shrank back guiltily and was speechless for a while: "I said the door..."
"Are you stupid? Can't you climb over the wall?"
"I..." A dead tone came from the phone after hanging up. Ye Kai held the phone in a daze for a long time. He saw Chen Youhan throw the cigarette on the ground and put it out, then he put his hands in his trouser pockets and walked leisurely to the bottom of the wall.
He cursed under his breath, opened the door and looked out into the corridor. After making sure that there was no teacher checking the dormitories, he ran downstairs as fast as he could.
When he got to the back door, Chen Youhan was waiting for him behind the iron gate. Under the moonlight, he changed into the clothes that were splashed with coffee during the day, but it was obvious that he had been ruined. Ye Kai knew that he had probably just come back from fooling around again.
"Have you seen enough? Do you want me to turn on the light for you?" Chen Youhan asked jokingly.
Damn it. Ye Kai retracted his gaze and retorted: "Don't you want to see me? Now you have seen me, come back."
"Are you walking your dog?" Chen Youhan stretched out a hand from his trouser pocket and waved at him impatiently, "Stop talking nonsense, the security guard is here."
Ye Kai couldn't get used to him. There was a gap between top students and poor students, and they couldn't get along at all.
"I shouted. Ye——"
Ye Kai stopped and turned around speechlessly: "Tell me, tell me that you miss me so much that you can't help yourself, tell me that you want to die without me, and I will come over after you finish telling me."
Okay, you really know how to have fun.
Chen Youhan raised one side of his lips, took out his phone from his trouser pocket, turned on the video, and said nonchalantly: "I, Chen Youhan, miss Ye Kai very much at this moment. I can't help thinking about him. I miss him so much that I want to die. I want to see him now."
As Ye Kai looked shocked, Chen Youhan saved the video, called up Ye Kai's WeChat ID, clicked send, and raised his phone provocatively: "...Please keep it."
Ye Kai: “…”
He walked towards the fence with the mood of visiting a grave. It was not a big deal. He would accept defeat and just flip over. He ran up to gain momentum, grabbed the railing with both hands, and pushed with his left foot. He jumped up easily. Just as he was about to jump, Chen Youhan shouted, "Wait a minute!"
This is neither up nor down, Ye Kai said unhappily: "What? You don't want me to go back?"
Chen Youhan looked him up and down and said, "Your movements are quite professional. You are an expert at climbing walls, right?"
"Get out." After cursing, he was about to jump, but was stopped by Chen Youhan.
"Are you done yet?"
Chen Youhan cleared his throat, bowed to him in a Western social manner, and said affectionately in a dubbed tone: "Oh~"
"?"
"...Juliet, my Juliet!"
……Hold.
You're not sleeping in the middle of the night and you're running here. What a madman.
Ye Kaifeng's expression was blank and messy. After a while, he asked angrily, "You did this on purpose, didn't you?"
Chen Youhan couldn't help but laugh, and returned to his normal state: "You're too polite, it's just a courtesy." Then he clapped his hands, "Come on, dance, Romeo will take over."
Ye Kai didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Okay, then please answer it, Mr. Luo." After saying that, he actually let go and jumped.
Chen Youhan caught it and hugged him tightly: "Looking for a partner in the future, you have to find someone like me, you know, I will definitely not let you fall when I climb over the wall."
Ye Kai pushed him away, and the scent of perfume mixed with the night breeze drifted deep into his heart. After all, it was late at night, so his face, which was rapidly heating up, would not be exposed. He whispered, "No, I have to find someone who is reluctant to let me climb over the wall." After saying that, he figured out that something was wrong, "If I really find someone like you, then my girlfriend must be a weightlifting champion, right?"
Chen Youhan laughed very loudly, then leaned down slightly and asked very logically: "What if she is not your girlfriend?"
