Chen Youhan put one hand in his suit trouser pocket, half sitting at the corner of the table. Hearing Wu Sijiu's words, he raised his eyes, his eyes dangerous and cold.
"Do you think I'm lying to you?" Wu Sijiu smiled, "No, you started kissing me as soon as you entered the hallway, once on the sofa, once on the carpet, and once on the bed. Not only were you very gentle, you also kept saying--"
"Shut up." He didn't get angry, he just said indifferently.
But Wu Sijiu stopped talking immediately, remained silent for a few seconds in fear, and then sighed and said in a trembling voice: "...So you love him."
The room was eerily quiet.
"So? You're going to find Ye Kai?" Chen Youhan flicked off the ash from his cigarette, expressionless.
"I'm jealous." Wu Sijiu admitted calmly, "Brother Youhan, I know you have no feelings for me, and I don't care at all. But you can't like others." He choked up, his eyes moistened, but he forced himself to hold back: "You promised me that you wouldn't fall in love with anyone."
"Tell me what you said to Ye Kai." He turned a blind eye to his show of weakness and was indifferent, just like he would treat any ex whose name he had forgotten.
Wu Sijiu laughed at himself and wiped away his tears with the back of his hand carelessly: "He is sick, isn't he?"
Chen Youhan finally stood up. His aura was terribly dark, and his eyes were filled with dark clouds. He walked towards him step by step: "Wu Sijiu, don't challenge my bottom line."
"What's your bottom line?" His face was full of laughter and tears, but tears were falling from his eyes.
"What about my bottom line? I didn't mean to be mistaken for Ye Kai by you. I didn't mean to be treated as Ye Kai and open my legs to endure you over and over again. I didn't mean to find out that you can also fall in love with someone else--"
He said painfully: "If possible, I don't want to know who you love at all! What's your bottom line? Is your bottom line the noble Ye Kai? Then I have challenged it! I have offended--"
Bang! His thin back was thrown against the wall, and the pain from his shoulder blades instantly spread throughout his body. Chen Youhan grabbed his collar and clamped his neck with his forearm. Wu Sijiu's red eyes widened, and his black pupils were wet with disbelief: "Half a year, Chen Youhan, I thought I was different..."
"What did you say to him?" Chen Youhan said coldly and fiercely, "Say it!"
They were so close that their noses were almost touching. If they were lovers, this would be the distance for kissing. Wu Sijiu laughed awkwardly, choked a few times, and made a hoarse voice from his chest: "I told him everything, how you fucked me, what position you used, and what you said in my ear, I told him everything! He is sick, isn't he - Brother Youhan, he thinks you are disgusting."
The violence in his pupils gradually turned red, and the force that was almost fatal to Wu Sijiu slowly loosened. Wu Sijiu's knees softened and he half-knelt down. He coughed and looked up to admire Chen Youhan's expression. This man never lost his composure, and he was always the master in love and in bed, but now, he was like a seriously injured lion - the violent emotions had not yet brewed, and they dissipated sadly. He lowered his eyes and stared coldly at Wu Sijiu: "I don't believe it."
"Ye Kai likes women, and you covet them. Isn't he disgusted? Brother Youhan, he treats you as his brother, but what about you? Do you treat him as your brother?"
Chen Youhan's pupils trembled slightly, as if he was captivated by this question. He couldn't refute it. Ye Kai had nightmares repeatedly, and in his dreams he would cry and ask him if he treated him as his brother - at that time, at that time he thought Ye Kai might have the same feelings towards him...
Ye Kai's hospitalization was no longer a secret in Tianyi, and there were even many exaggerated versions. Wu Sijiu stood up with the help of the wall, with a crazy look of satisfaction on his face: "Knowing that you want to sleep with him, he has a nightmare... Do you still want to lie to yourself, Brother Youhan?"
"Go." Chen Youhan pointed at the door, his voice hoarse, "Don't show up in front of Ye Kai again."
"I won't." Wu Sijiu raised his head stubbornly, meeting his cold and hurt gaze, "You promised me to let me like you. I also said that whoever you love or sleep with is none of my business. Brother Youhan, you like Ye Kai, but you know that it's impossible for you two to be together. It must be painful." He walked slowly towards Chen Youhan, his steps floating like walking on clouds, "You think of me as him, I don't mind. We look alike, don't we? Whether it's facial features or body shape, from the front or from the back, we look alike, don't we?"
"...You can't fuck him, but you can fuck me. He won't love you, but I do. He won't give up everything for you, but I will!" Wu Sijiu hugged him and wrapped his arms around Chen Youhan's waist tightly: "Chen Youhan, you won't believe how much I love you--"
"Look at my face." Wu Sijiu raised his eyes, his innocent and beautiful eyes brewing a nostalgic and charming look: "Can you bear to do that? Ye Kai is the heir of the Ye family. He is destined to marry and have children, and to pass on the heirs of the Ye family. He is straight, how can he love you? He will only find you disgusting."
Being obedient turned into being paranoid. His tone was ambiguous, like a carnivorous plant exuding rose-scented morning dew, desperately trying to seduce Chen Youhan.
"You were so gentle that night, I've never been so gentle before." His fingers lingered down Chen Youhan's neck, "...I'm addicted."
Unexpectedly, he heard a sneer. Chen Youhan tightly grasped his fragile wrist, with a sneer on his face: "Do you think you are Ye Kai? I, Chen Youhan, am not that pitiful."
His hand was thrown down hard and hit the white wall with a bang, causing Wu Sijiu to feel pain from the back of his hand all the way to the tip of his heart.
"The breakup fee will be deposited into your card tomorrow." Chen Youhan pulled his tie, "You are still young, I don't want to kill you. Don't show up in front of Ye Kai again, and don't try to get close to me. Study hard when you get into college, take your mother to get treatment if she is sick, I am not your savior, and I will not love you."
Wu Sijiu was stunned, as if he couldn't digest what he said.
"Xiaojiu, if you give me another chance, I won't sleep with you. You shouldn't have me when you're eighteen."
The door opened, and then closed automatically with a slight click. Wu Sijiu woke up as if from a dream, and rushed out frantically -
"Don't go! Chen Youhan, Chen Youhan, Chen Youhan!"
The corridor covered with thick carpet was empty, and Chen Youhan didn't even give him a glance of his back.
The night breeze in early June felt cool on my body. The lights in the whole city were on, and the night market gradually became prosperous. Ye Kai and Lu Fu walked side by side through the narrow and busy streets and onto the wide road. The street lights cast an ambiguous yellow halo through the shade of the trees, stretching the shadows of the two people. He still hadn't had time to cut his hair, which was blown up by the wind at 7:30 in the summer evening, revealing his smooth forehead and eyebrows like a painting.
Lu Fu drank beer, ate crayfish and ate skewers, and was completely immersed in the bubbles of satisfaction. He still had some time to pay attention to Ye Kai. He walked backwards with his hands in his school uniform pockets and looked at Ye Kai: "Classmate, I feel that you are not in a good mood."
Ye Kai smiled.
My thoughts were still on the scene of Wu Sijiu running towards Chen Youhan at dusk. The long summer vacation had arrived, and they had to pick him up even after the college entrance examination. Their summer... must have many more dusks like this.
When he entered the school gate, he was so lucky that he didn't meet the teacher on duty. Ye Kai walked into the classroom from the back door. The students were busy doing their homework. The math teacher was sitting on the podium. He looked up at Ye Kai, nodded and said nothing. Ye Kai had good grades, so he was willing to turn a blind eye.
There is only half a month left before the final exam. Those who have fallen in love early have given up, not to mention those who have a secret crush. Ye Kai took out a stack of test papers from the table, including competition questions and review books. He turned his pen, and his indifferent face had a look of life worse than death.
He hadn't done a few steps in the math when his phone vibrated so loudly that everyone around him turned around to look at him. The math teacher looked speechless, as if he was just trying to make trouble for me, and waved at Ye Kai.
...Okay, hand it over obediently.
Before handing it over, I glanced at the screen desperately. It was WeChat. When I tried to open the app again, the math teacher said, "Where are you in love?"
Boom! The whole class was in an uproar, competing to admire Ye Kai's expression. Everyone knows that this Tianyi Young Master is like an iceberg wrapped in spring breeze in terms of feelings. From a distance, the spring breeze is blowing on your face, but if you try to go one step deeper, you will be frozen. Last semester, someone blocked him at the door of the classroom every day, but this semester, his popularity plummeted, and even his name could not be heard on the confession wall on-demand station.
Ye Kai handed over his phone, and his instinct was that it was Chen Youhan.
Maybe it won’t be Chen Youhan, he should be having a romantic affair with Wu Sijiu.
But I still think so.
He looked dazed. The math teacher, who was over 40, pushed his glasses and said, "Want to see it? If you want to see it, go get it from your class teacher during the morning self-study class tomorrow." The audience was whispering and the papers in their hands were clattering. "You still don't know how to concentrate! At the end of the semester, ah, the city-wide joint exam, I want to see how you score!"
Ye Kai returned to his seat, and willfully moved the math paper to the bottom, and began to work on the physics paper. After barely finishing two multiple-choice questions that required a score, he began to lose focus while holding the pen. Chen Youhan did not intend to bring Wu Sijiu home. This man was promiscuous and hypocritical, and he even moved his family for this. He must not be serious with Wu Sijiu.
His thoughts continued to go deeper uncontrollably, and Ye Kai unconsciously clenched his pen - if he wasn't serious, why did he still care so much?
Is there something different about Wu Sijiu that makes him feel a sense of crisis?
Or...it was he who changed.
Every second felt like a year. The second evening self-study class finally ended. As the bell rang, Ye Kai poked his deskmate's arm and said, "Lend me your phone."
My deskmate covered himself with his hands in horror: "No way!"
Ye Kai: "...Why are you covering yourself so tightly when I lend you my phone?"
"Oh, yeah." My deskmate said earnestly, "Xiaoye, your phone has already been sacrificed heroically. Now there will definitely be a comprehensive crackdown on cellphones. Don't covet mine, okay?"
Ye Kai poked the person at the table in front of him again, but before he could finish his words, the person at the table in front of him said without even turning his head, "Don't even think about dragging me down with you!"
After asking around, everyone seemed to be protecting their own child.
The bell rang for class. Facing the blank physics paper and the Chinese, math, English and chemistry exercise books with not a single word written on them, Ye Kai's indifferent eyes finally showed a little fluctuation... He would die if he didn't start writing.
Focus your mind and start writing.
...But what would Chen Youhan send him? What if it was very important? If he didn't reply, would Chen Youhan call him? Would she get worried if she found out his phone was turned off? ...Draw analytical diagrams...Balance chemical equations...Exercise examples of noun clauses...It's damn easy. He was distracted while doing the questions very quickly, which irritated his deskmate. Five minutes before the end of the class, the whole class thought they had seen a ghost - Ye Kai, the walking golden sign of Tianyi Middle School, actually left early with his schoolbag! He crouched down and slipped out from the back door quietly, calmly passed by the grade group office, and then quickly ran to the second grade classroom on the fourth floor.
Lu Fu was caught by him right after class. She was very touched, thinking that he came to pick her up from school. Once out of the teachers' sight, Ye Kai patted his arm and said, "Lend me your phone."
"and yours?"
"It was confiscated." Ye Kai said lightly.
Unlocking the phone, he input a number without thinking. While waiting for the call to be connected, he glanced at Lu Fu, who was heartbroken: "So you traveled thousands of miles to enter the second year of high school just for this!"
Chen Youhan's deep voice came through the receiver: "Hello? Who is this?"
Ye Kai's mood improved visibly, and he walked away from the surging crowd heading back to the dormitories and headed for the path. The surroundings became much quieter, with only the sounds of frogs and crickets remaining. He said, "Brother Youhan, it's me."
Chen Youhan pushed open the glass curtains in his office, letting in the night breeze, mixed with the distant sounds of traffic on the Xijiang Bridge. He looked out at the vast lights on the other side of the river, smiled and asked, "Why did you think of calling me? Where's your phone?"
Ye Kai was unable to speak: "...It was confiscated by the teacher. Did you send me a WeChat message just now?"
"No." Chen Youhan answered quickly. Noticing Ye Kai's sudden silence, he laughed again: "Someone sent you a WeChat message and you didn't have time to read it? Do you think it was me?"
...Why would a poor student be so smart?
Ye Kai regained his expressionless face: "Excuse me."
Gu Xiu pushed the door open with his foot and came in, pointing at the mountain of planning approval documents in his hand. Chen Youhan glanced at him, waved his hand to send him away, and said to the phone: "Don't bother me, I'm fine now."
Gu Xiu: “…”
"I'm hanging up if you don't bother me. I just finished my evening study and haven't finished my homework." He still needs to finish the math test paper for revenge. What's the point? He's the one who has to stay up late to make up for it.
Chen Youhan said helplessly, "Go to bed early," and heard a sharp blind tone coming from the microphone.
"You're okay now, right?" Gu Xiu was furious. He had just finished a whole cup of strong black coffee! He let out a long sigh: "All of these need to be reviewed and approved. If there are no problems, the OA will sign and approve. District Wang is waiting anxiously. The second-in-command will come to inspect next month. I think he is in a hurry..." He suddenly stopped talking. He looked at Chen Youhan in astonishment as he picked up the car keys - "What are you doing?"
"I'm going out for a while and I'll be back before twelve o'clock."
Gu Xiu was confused: "What could be more important than this?"
Chen Youhan untied his tie and rolled up his sleeves to his elbows, looking languid and carefree at night. He narrowed his eyes, biting an unlit cigarette, and said nonchalantly, "Someone missed me."
Ten minutes after taking a shower, the lights were turned off. Ye Kai turned on the small desk lamp and started to do his math homework. Lu Fu was lying on the bed watching a video. He didn't hold it steady, and it hit his face intimately. Then it started to vibrate like a corpse whip. ...It was killing him. Lu Fu picked up his phone to see who was blind enough to call him in the middle of the night. Damn, it turned out to be an unfamiliar number.
He picked up the phone and said angrily, "No money! No loans, no houses, no investments, no stocks, no insurance. I'm a fraud. Turn right and call 110. Thank you!"
The other party was silent for a few seconds: "... Find Ye Kai."
Lu Fu: “…” The embarrassment came so suddenly.
"Ye Kai--" He lowered his voice and drew out the tone.
Ye Kai raised his head from the desk and saw Lu Fu half-crouching over. He stretched out his arm speechlessly and handed him the phone: "Someone is looking for you."
He was stunned and put down his pen unconsciously. His heartbeat was particularly obvious in the quiet night, as if it was ringing in his ears.
"Hello."
Chen Youhan's voice was heard, mixed with the night wind.
"East Gate." He said briefly.
Ye Kai looked at the test paper and felt embarrassed: "Not today, I haven't finished my homework."
Chen Youhan smiled and put out his cigarette, "I won't let you climb over the wall."
"and you--"
The other party hung up.
Ye Kai handed the phone back to Lu Fu blankly and asked, "Can you write the first-year high school solid geometry?"
Lu Fu: "???"
I took the risk and reached the east gate of the school. Sure enough, Chen Youhan was there. He stood under the street light with his hands in his trouser pockets. The light was dim, and the gray moths fluttered against the light bulb. When he saw Ye Kai, he tilted his head and smiled frivolously: "Oh, the good student broke the school rules again."
Ye Kai said as he walked: "No barbecue, no climbing over the wall, no skipping classes——"
"miss you."
Ye Kai stopped, three steps away from the iron gate. He opened his mouth, but the second half of his sentence died out in the silence of the night, leaving only the faint sound of insects. His heart was lifted up, infinitely high, infinitely far, like a transparent bubble that escaped the gravity and floated towards the stars.
Chen Youhan sneered faintly, and when he thought of what Wu Sijiu said, his heart felt like it was pricked by a rose. He said, "What's that expression?"
Ye Kai didn't know how he finished the remaining three steps. When he realized it, he was very close to Chen Youhan, just separated by a hollow iron gate. Chen Youhan looked thinner, and his figure in a white shirt blended into the dark blue night sky. He pretended to be relaxed and said, "Okay, we've seen each other, let's go back."
Ye Kai: "Are you walking the dog?"
I drove forty minutes from the city center just to see him, but I didn't know who he was.
"I saw you today." Chen Youhan turned around and leaned against the iron gate, lowered his head and lit a cigarette, "You and your roommate are together, right?"
Ye Kai was stunned: "Why didn't you say hello when you saw me?"
"You saw me too." Chen Youhan leaned on one leg, cigarette burning quietly at his fingertips. The cigarette he smoked was very light, 1mg Davidoff, but the fragrance was very good, spreading faintly along the night breeze, making Ye Kai addicted.
"I've seen Wu Si for a long time," Ye Kai said lightly, "Why should I join in on your date?"
Chen Youhan laughed, lowered his head and rubbed his overly tired eyebrows, "What kind of meeting? I have something to deal with him." He had wanted to solve this matter for a long time, but he had put it on hold because the other party was going to take the college entrance examination. Seeing that Ye Kai didn't say a word, Chen Youhan had to say, "I'm done with him, and he won't say nonsense to you anymore."
"I..." Ye Kai's heart skipped a beat. He knew everything? He knew that he was still upset about bringing Wu Sijiu home and getting sick and having a fever? Embarrassment and embarrassment rose alternately. "It's nothing," he could only try to pretend that nothing had happened. "I overreacted."
Hearing his words, Chen Youhan's heart seemed to be hit by something. Not only did he not feel better, but he laughed even more awkwardly: "He's just talking nonsense, don't believe it."
Don't believe it... Ye Kai was completely unable to think. Wu Sijiu said that Chen Youhan treated him like a child, but Chen Youhan said that he was just talking nonsense... What does that mean? The math problem is very simple, but why is reading comprehension so difficult? He was like a poor student and didn't dare to write easily.
"It's good that it's not true." Ye Kai was very flustered and his head was dizzy. He mustered up the courage to say, "I'm very happy to hear you say that."
Chen Youhan was stunned and his hand was burned by the cigarette. He threw it away in a panic.
Sparks fell in a string in the air, and his heart fell more miserably than the ashes, and grayer than the ashes.
Ye Kai was startled and said contemptuously, "Are you so sad about breaking up?" It would be too embarrassing to be burned by cigarettes.
Chen Youhan had no place to complain, so he gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence: "I'm so fucking heartbroken!"
They met for only ten minutes, and all they did was chat across servers. In the end, they parted on bad terms. Ye Kai continued to do his papers, while Chen Youhan drove home to work overtime.
Gu Xiu felt that his mental illness was getting worse and worse. He was covered in pink bubbles before leaving and came back with a murderous look on his face. His face changed faster than the weather in Ning City in May. It was a pity that the proposal report for promotion and salary increase submitted for review tonight was rejected with all the nitpicking and red crosses.
Lu Fu also felt that Ye Kai was sick. After slipping away for a few minutes, he felt refreshed and even walked in a light manner. He was so energetic that he worked on the questions until late at night.
The day when the college entrance examination results were released happened to be the first day of the city-wide joint examination.
When Ye Kai was leaving the examination room after the test, he happened to meet his math teacher who was carrying a sealed test paper to the teaching and research office. He heard him chatting with another invigilator next to him: "...Really? I remember his grades were average... Oh, did he hire a tutoring class? It's easier for art students to improve..." Ye Kai was in a daze, remembering that this teacher also taught a class of senior high school students.
His guess was soon confirmed.
Because I had been following Wu Sijiu for a while, there were always people passing on news to him. Before I even entered the classroom, I heard people gossiping, "That guy in the senior year got admitted to Gmei. That's awesome." Gmei ranks third among the eight major art academies in the country, and getting into pure art is even harder.
Ye Kai couldn't describe his feelings, not even a little bit of emotion. Later, he ran into him in the corridor, thanking his math teacher. Their eyes met, and Ye Kai knew he had something to say to him, so he waited for a while.
Wu Sijiu came over, and he said congratulations calmly, but she didn't seem to be happy, but rather hurt. That kind of inappropriate paranoia appeared on her pretty face again: "Congratulations? If I do this to you, you should hope that I will fail the college entrance examination and end up in a third-rate fake university."
Ye Kai smiled politely, "If our positions were reversed, you would definitely want to see me trampled into the mud like you said. But I am not you."
Wu Sijiu seemed insulted, his fair face was a little unable to hold back his expression, and he said sharply, word by word, "Please put away your hypocritical kindness that is protected by money."
Ye Kai was even more amused and confused: "Kind? You misunderstood. What does your performance in the exam have to do with me? I don't care at all, understand?"
Wu Sijiu's face was sinister. How could he not understand? This was Ye Kai's arrogance, and it was also what he hated most about him.
The joy of getting the points was diluted by jealousy and unwillingness. He pointed at Ye Kai's chest and said, "Do you think you won? Without me, Chen Youhan will have many sex partners. He changes one every month. You continue to be your favorite and wait for him. Hey, you can't even give him a blowjob."
Ye Kai's face changed, and before Wu Sijiu could savor the pleasure of the moment, his arm was twisted. He turned his head in pain and anger, his face instantly pale.
Chen Youhan twisted his hand and said lazily: "I told you not to appear in front of him again, don't you understand?"
The teachers and students who were passing by all looked over here, but the vice-president was standing next to him, so no one dared to move. Chen Youhan pushed him lightly, and he stumbled awkwardly. In public, his face was blue and red. He wanted to get closer to Chen Youhan - but he was too lazy to even look at him.
Chen Youhan nodded to the vice principal and said lightly, "Excuse me."
The vice principal was actually a step behind and didn't hear anything. He only knew that Chen Youhan spoke up for Ye Kai. This was a complete mess, so he could only laugh it off: "As a high school student, it's inevitable to have some bumps and bruises. Ye Kai, how are you doing with your homework review? The city-wide joint exam, the ranking of the first graders depends on you."
Chen Youhan took Ye Kai's shoulder and smiled at the vice principal: "What's wrong with him? He just plays games when he gets home. Don't put pressure on him." He took Ye Kai to the side of the aisle and said softly: "Don't listen to those dirty words, okay?" The vice principal was still waiting nearby, so he didn't say much. He straightened his school uniform collar and said: "Tell me after the exam, and I'll take you to dinner."
The vice-principal extended his hand at the right time: "Please, let's go this way."
Chen Youhan has always been humble and reserved in business, but he glanced at Wu Sijiu very sharply before leaving.
As the two of them left, the crowd completely let themselves go, and the buzz of whispers spread throughout the corridor. Ye Kai returned to the classroom calmly and opened his biology textbook.
After the exam in the afternoon, it was 5:30, and as expected, I received a call from Chen Youhan. Thinking about the fact that he still needed to review, I didn't make an appointment at a far place, but booked a private room at the lakeside restaurant of Tianyi. This is where the school conducts business receptions and inspections. Qu Jia personally watched it, and the environment and products are good.
The two of them had their meal on the fully glass-enclosed garden terrace on the third floor. Downstairs was the lake, and a tree-lined path circled the lake, where students could be seen memorizing words with books in their arms under the street lights.
"Why are you at school today?" Ye Kai asked.
"I plan to donate a library and set up an education fund."
Ye Kai paused, "Is this true?"
"Really." Chen Youhan didn't elaborate. In fact, it was a certain person's child who really wanted to come but his grades were not good enough. Tianyi is a private school, so it is relatively easy to operate. It is simple to say hello to the Ye family and get someone in, but Chen Youhan doesn't want to ask Qu Jia for help and owe him a favor. Donate to the library to set up a fund, and then tailor a selection criteria for the child, so that he can come in naturally, and it will sound good to the other party.
Ultimately, it's all Qu Jia's fault. A private school is so strict in accepting admissions.
"Don't take to heart what Wu Sijiu said to you today." Chen Youhan said, and served him a bowl of soup.
Ye Kai asked uncomfortably: "Did you hear everything?"
"I only heard the second half of the sentence." Chen Youhan looked normal, but he was actually extremely embarrassed. He now regretted being too lenient with Wu Sijiu. Did he tell Ye Kai all this to make him hate him more? But it would be cheap to argue with a high school student, so he had to remind him: "Next time you see him, stay away from him."
Ye Kai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "He said you have many friends, so you change one every month."
Friend. Look at the subtle wording.
Chen Youhan smiled and pushed the bowl towards him: "You should know these things better than him."
Ye Kai was speechless, thinking to himself, I know it too damn well. From what you said, should I be proud?
He drank half a bowl of soup with a poor appetite and said, "Next time you look for a partner, can you first consider their personality and character? What if something really goes wrong when you always meet such an extreme person?"
Chen Youhan smiled and said, "There won't be a next time."
Ye Kai paused as he held the porcelain spoon. "What do you mean?"
"There won't be a next time. I won't look for someone else."
Did the moon rise from the west? Or is this actually a parallel world? Ye Kai was stunned and asked stupidly: "...Do you believe in religion?"
Chen Youhan was choked by his question and kept coughing into his napkin: "Can you please stop making it sound like I'm going to become a monk?"
Ye Kai looked at him suspiciously and was reserved about it.
"Maybe next summer." Chen Youhan looked at him and said gently, "Forget it if it doesn't work."
"Why next summer?" Ye Kai asked again, unable to think of the reason, and then suddenly realized: "Are you sick? Do you want to rest and recuperate?"
Chen Youhan: "...You can hope for me to be better, okay?"
Ye Kai stopped asking and showed his concern for him in a subtle way: "Then you... I heard that adults who are not harmonious are prone to abnormality."
This meal is inedible.
Chen Youhan dropped the towel: "Don't I have hands?!"
Good students and adults are two different worlds. One of them went back to prepare for the exam while the other drove to Huangtian. Qiao Chu was very concerned about his store and would stay here for a while every night of the 365 days. Seeing Chen Youhan coming in from a distance, he asked someone to go to the wine cellar to get the Macallan he had stored, and asked jokingly, "Why do I feel like I haven't seen you for a while?"
Chen Youhan hadn't been here for a while. In the past, he was very familiar with entering Huangtian, just like going home. Today, when he entered, he felt that the music was too loud. In the beautiful lights, he flashed the image of dancing with Ye Kai inappropriately, on the top floor of the Marriott. A Malaysian band singing English songs, a beautiful Juliet rose, a faint fragrance, Ye Kai's messy dance steps, the ladies' flying white skirts, and his panicked heartbeat.
...How could he be so slow to realize it?
"Why do you seem to be in a bad mood? Has our Emperor fallen out of favor with you?"
The shaker in his hand made a rattling sound, the sound of ice cubes colliding.
Chen Youhan sat down on the bar stool: "Let's talk business. Next time Xiaojiu comes, please stop him."
Qiao Chu was stunned: "What's the matter? Break up?"
Chen Youhan looked like he was asking, and sarcastically said, "Thanks to you, I paid the breakup fee twice."
"Hey..." He couldn't deny this, so he whistled with glee: "Don't be so sarcastic to your brothers. Let me ask you something, what did he do to you?"
Chen Youhan didn't want to say much, so he just said briefly: "He has some personality flaws, and it will get worse if he gets involved in this circle. It will be good for both you and him if you stop him."
Qiao Chu clasped his fists: "Thanks for the reminder!" He then started to work - "Celebrate being single, pick two tonight? I think you also liked Yu Tian's last time, there's a painter..."
Chen Youhan took a sip of whiskey with ice.
"Qiao Chu." His voice was low, but not as dandy as usual, but rather very gentlemanly. The music was loud, covering up most of the whispers, but Qiao Chu still heard it clearly. He said, "I have someone I like."
With a clang, Boss Qiao's hand slipped and the beautiful crystal cup fell out of his hand and hit the marble table. It didn't break, but a few crystal slags flew out. Sanguan encountered a mudslide, and Qiao Chu tried his best to rescue it and said, "Who are you fooling?"
Chen Youhan cursed, "Believe it or not."
"How do you know for sure? Wait, let me guess..." Qiao Chu thought quickly: "Is it because he is so good in bed and so exciting that you can't stop?"
Chen Youhan held his chin with the back of his hand, a smile on his face, and teased him playfully: "We've never been to bed, and we've never been kissed."
"...Fuck." Qiao Chu racked his brains: "Is it because he and you have the same values and personalities, and we are a perfect soul mate?"
"I don't know if he and I are compatible," Chen Youhan said nonchalantly, "but I'm a poor student and he's a top student. I'm a playboy and he's a blank slate. I work all the time except for sex, and he studies and does sports. Do you think we're compatible?"
Qiao Chu looked at Chen Youhan in shock and suspicion: "Can you do this? Can you be together?"
"Who said you're together?" Chen Youhan looked calm, "I haven't confessed yet."
"Secret love?!"
The music was exciting. Chen Youhan knocked on the table and said, "Come on, yell louder."
Qiao Chu covered his face and muffled a sound through his fingers: "I have to abstain from sex just because I have a crush on you? Do I need to award you a chastity arch?"
etc--
"You didn't treat Du Tang like this at the beginning!"
Qiao Chu still remembers it clearly. This man who had a crush on someone had been sleeping outside for several years. They had discussed this issue not long ago.
"Don't you say you can't keep your chastity? Don't you say feelings are feelings and the body is the body? Ah, Master Chen? President Chen? What you said is bullshit?"
Chen Youhan looked at him with a half-smile: "Do you have any objections?"
Qiao Chu was heartbroken and speechless: "Kiki, come here!"
Kiki glanced at Chen Youhan and said softly, "There's no special reason to like someone, but if Chen Shao likes him, then he must be very, very good. Chen Shao is willing to give up his usual lifestyle for him, this is the best confession."
Chen Youhan smiled and handed over a black card from his card holder: "Pay two hundred thousand whiskey for everyone, it's on your account."
Kiki took the card like she was taking the Olympic torch, and ran away in a flash, her shadow flying off. Qiao Chu wiped her face and poured a glass of wine for Chen Youhan, "Seriously, why don't you try again? Is it because you haven't slept with someone you like recently, and you're lonely and having hallucinations?"
Chen Youhan drank the whole drink, put down the cup and stood up: "I have lived for 33 years and I can't even be sure that I like someone else. Do you think I am an idiot?"
"Hey, you don't want the card anymore?"
"Send it to my company. If it's stolen, it's yours."
Qiao Chu: “…” Damn, what a crap friend.
Walking out of the bar, the night wind blew the neon lights of the night market into the distance.
The heat dissipates amid the hustle and bustle of traffic; the long summer is coming.
Chen Youhan clicked on the dialog box——
: Happy summer vacation. Can you accompany me to see the sea this time, without raining?
