Extra World 1
Graduation season is just around the corner, and sports schools are becoming busier than usual.
The playground was full of people taking graduation photos with their friends in advance and discussing with their friends which school they would go to in the future.
But on days like this, Gao Yuan didn't have time to think about where to go in the future. He was thinking about another thing - how to deal with his boyfriend's birthday gift.
He learned from Luan Ye that the other person's birthday was on the day they both graduated, and he has been troubled by it until now.
Since finding his goal, Gao Yuan's vacation has become more fulfilling.
Either he would go to Luanye School to watch him play the piano, or he would go to the gym with his friends to exercise, and once again refused the gym's suggestion of asking him to buy an annual membership card - just kidding, he knew all the knowledge about exercise, and he didn't need anyone to supervise him.
After refusing to apply for the card, the other party asked him if he would consider working here part-time. Gao Yuan thought about it and agreed this time.
During that time, he earned a little money from this part-time job, and now he can use this money to prepare a birthday present for his boyfriend.
But what's a good birthday gift?
piano?
Gao Yuan and Luan Ye had been to each other's houses together. There wasn't much in the house, and there wasn't much food in the refrigerator. But the instruments were all there, and in excellent condition. Gao Yuan didn't know where to put his hands when he sat on the piano bench.
Buy some music-related books?
But he didn't understand music, and he didn't know which music master Luan Ye was more interested in. What if he carefully selected something and ended up buying something his boyfriend hated?
--Hold.
I don’t want to! Ah!
Gao Yuan lay back down, looking up at the sky. He suddenly felt that just lying there was fine. Maybe while he was lying there he would figure out how to solve the problem of his boyfriend's birthday gift.
Just as Gao Yuan was thinking this, a head suddenly appeared in the sky he was staring at.
Gao Yuan punched the other person without thinking.
Two "Fuck" sounds were heard at the same time.
"Yu Mao, are you sick?" Gao Yuan sat up. "Do you know that scaring others can kill them?!"
"How do I know you can land a precise punch on me while lying down?" Yu Mao rubbed his face and muttered, "...Are you planning on practicing boxing in the future?"
"Get lost." Gao Yuan said without a second thought, "What do you want from me?"
"Someone asked me to help." Yu Mao pointed in a direction, "The girls over there want you to go over and take a photo with them."
"Huh?" Gao Yuan heard this and immediately looked warily in the direction Yu Mao pointed. There was indeed a group of girls standing there. He remembered that they were practicing shot put. "Why do they want to take a photo with me?"
They are clearly not related at all and their training times are not even at the same time.
"Do you have any awareness that you are the campus hunk?" Yu Mao couldn't help but complain.
At this moment, Gao Yuan suddenly remembered something and immediately looked at his hand. The Su ring was still on his ring finger.
Fortunately, it wasn’t lost.
He relaxed completely, but it didn't last long before he tensed up again: if the ring wasn't lost, then these people should know that he has a partner, right?
"I've made sure they just want to take a picture with the school's most famous person. They have no other intentions." Yu Mao clasped his hands together towards Gao Yuan. "Just go and take the picture. I've already made arrangements with them."
"What are you talking about? It's none of my business." Gao Yuan glared at him, but still walked towards the group of girls - it was just a photo, it wouldn't cost him anything.
The photo was taken in a short while. Gao Yuan refused the leading girl's suggestion that he want the photo and went back to the place where he had just been lying.
Then the head popped out again.
"I'm really impressed—" Gao Yuan raised his fist in protest and sat up. "What on earth do you want to do?"
"I just want to ask..." Yu Mao gave Gao Yuan a flattering smile, "What have you been thinking about recently?"
Some people on the school forum started asking Gao Yuan if she had broken up with her boyfriend. Otherwise, why would she run to the playground and lie down when she had nothing to do, looking like she had been heartbroken.
"Luan Ye's birthday is coming soon," Gao Yuan didn't insist on saying 'nothing' at this moment, but just glanced at Yu Mao, "but I haven't decided what gift to get him yet."
"A birthday present? That's easy!" Yu Mao immediately patted his chest, "I know!"
"You know?" Gao Yuan looked at him suspiciously, "Isn't the person you're dating a girlfriend?"
"It's a girlfriend!" Yu Mao said, "But as for birthday gifts, can't you just search for birthday gifts on the shopping platform and then add 'male' at the end?"
"Or 'Surprise! My boyfriend cried when he received this!' It's really useful!"
"Is this how you choose a gift for your girlfriend?" Gao Yuan was genuinely puzzled when he said this. "Hasn't she dumped you yet?"
"I'm trying to help you out of kindness, but you turn around and curse me!" Yu Mao immediately turned his head away, "Pah!"
"Don't give me bad advice," Gao Yuan said succinctly. "I told Luan Ye that the gift I buy him must be something he likes. I don't want to buy him a gift that will make my boyfriend cry."
It doesn't sound reliable.
"Oh." Yu Mao felt a little aggrieved after being scolded, but he still gave Gao Yuan face and continued to help him find a solution. "But it's not a good idea to continue to worry about it. If it really doesn't work, why don't you just ask him directly?"
"Who would ask someone what they want for their birthday gift before their birthday? That's not sincere at all!" Gao Yuan finally got angry, "Get lost!"
- I shouldn't have believed that Yu Mao could give me a good idea!
…
"You've been staring at me for a long time," Luan Ye suddenly said. He was thinking of a new song, but Gao Yuan's eyes kept following him, making it impossible for him to ignore them. "Is there something you want to tell me?"
"I..." Gao Yuan didn't expect to be discovered by Luan Ye, but he wasn't the type to say 'what nonsense are you talking about' after being pointed out, so he admitted it after a moment's hesitation, "...No, is it that obvious?"
"Yeah." Luan Ye nodded, not caring about Gao Yuan's intentions at all. "It's very obvious."
Gao Yuan stopped talking, he felt a little embarrassed.
After hesitating for a moment between admitting it directly or making up an excuse to get away with it, Gao Yuan chose to take a deep breath. Then he said, "Is there anything... you want recently?"
It was extremely difficult to say these words, as if they were being squeezed out of my throat.
"Hmm?" Luan Ye turned his head and glanced at Gao Yuan.
Just by looking at Gao Yuan, Luan Ye understood why the other party had been staring at him.
He thought about it and decided to answer the question seriously, so Luan Ye put down the pen in his hand and said, "You're right to ask this question. I just want a little gadget recently."
"What is it?!" Gao Yuan asked immediately.
But the next second Gao Yuan noticed that his reaction seemed a bit excessive. He put his hands on his knees, trying to pretend that he was not the one who was excited just now. "...What is it?"
"I want a black ball." Luan Ye thought for a moment and gestured with his hands to indicate a size. "About this size."
"Hmm." Gao Yuan leaned over and compared his fist with the one Luan Ye was pointing at. An idea came to his mind. "What else?"
He had no intention of asking Luan Ye what this thing was.
"It feels like..." Luan Ye looked around and didn't find anything to use as a reference. He could only say, "How should I put it? It's very soft and very comfortable to pinch."
Especially stress-relieving.
"Yeah." Gao Yuan nodded. He thought for a moment and said, "Wait a moment."
Then he took out a pillow from the bedroom and handed it to Luan Ye who was sitting on the chair: "Is it something like this?"
Luan Ye pinched the pillow: "It should be softer than this."
"Okay." Gao Yuan nodded again, "I'll remember that."
"Oh, right, it has two eyes," Luan Ye continued, "but they're not human eyes. They're..."
They have some Q-version eyes, but it’s hard to describe.
Luan Ye thought about it, turned the page of the notebook on the table, and then drew the system's eyes on it based on his memory.
Gao Yuan stared at the paper for a while, then folded it and put it away.
"What does it look like overall?" he continued.
"...At first glance it looks like a spider spirit, but if you look closely it looks like a ball of hair." Luan Ye said this with difficulty. He had no idea how to describe what the system looked like as a whole and could only go by feeling.
Gao Yuan laughed out loud, and the depression and irritability that had gathered between his brows these days disappeared.
"I know," he said seriously, "just wait."
He will definitely do it.
Luan Ye looked at Gao Yuan and nodded: "Okay, I'll wait."
In the blink of an eye, it was graduation day.
After the graduating class took a group photo with the help of a photographer hired by the school, everyone took photos with their friends on the playground.
Luan Ye spent the whole day being dragged around to take photos and helping others take photos.
After the system left, the relationship between him and Gao Yuan finally got back on track. Luan Ye laughed more often than before. Now everyone can only see the school hunk who used to look so cold by opening the forum.
A handsome guy who looks like an ice cube will make people feel that he is only worth watching from afar, but a handsome guy who loves to smile will make people want to stay with him for a while, especially when they may not see each other again in the future.
So today, there were especially many people dragging Luan Ye to take pictures. From teachers to students, and from classmates to Luan Ye, no one had any impression of him at all.
Luan Ye felt as if he had become a check-in attraction. People came to him and checked in, and then said goodbye to him.
After a day of smiling, his face became a little stiff.
In the end, Luan Ye rubbed his face and sat down on the podium.
Although he didn't really like taking pictures with others, today was different, so he should be treated specially.
Everyone was taking pictures on the playground, but there were few people around the podium. Luan Ye pulled out his phone, wanting to ask Gao Yuan how his day was going.
The next second after he opened the chat box, the system prompted that a new message had been sent from the other side.
: Look back.
Luan Ye didn't ask why, he just turned around.
He saw Gao Yuan, who was wearing the same clothes as he was then. Gao Yuan smiled, waved at him, and then strode towards him.
Then he rushed over and hugged Luan Ye: "--How about it? Surprise!"
"Surprise!" Luan Ye felt like he was about to be stunned by this surprise. "But why are you here? Aren't you guys taking graduation photos?"
"Yes, we've already finished filming," Gao Yuan replied. "I have to go to a farewell dinner with my roommates tonight, so I planned to come find you first."
Luan Ye blinked, not understanding the connection.
"What I mean is... before that, I want to have a meal with you first." Gao Yuan scratched his cheek, then suddenly remembered something and quickly added, "But it's not a farewell dinner!"
"It's just that... today is not the day we all graduate, and it's also your birthday," Gao Yuan said. "I think it's a very memorable day."
"So I want to go eat with you first." Gao Yuan said this, his Adam's apple moving, "--By the way, please extend your hand."
Luan Ye stretched out his hand: "What?"
"This is for you. It's your birthday present." Gao Yuan took a small gadget out of his pocket. It was a keychain - but hanging on it was a black thing that looked like a small ball of fur.
"Happy birthday." Gao Yuan said to Luan Ye.
Luan Ye took the ball of fur and squeezed it subconsciously: "Thank you..."
Not only does it look very similar, but even the touch is exactly the same as the system. When he mentioned this to Gao Yuan, he never thought that Gao Yuan could actually make it.
"How did you..." He looked at Gao Yuan, then looked down at the ball of fur.
"Is it the same feel as the little gadget you mentioned?" Gao Yuan rubbed his fingers nervously. "If not, that's okay. I've made several with different textures and will give them to you when the time comes."
"It's the same." Luan Ye hung it up. "Did you make it yourself?"
"Yeah!" Gao Yuan nodded seriously.
Luan Ye reached out to touch Gao Yuan's hand, but didn't feel any wound: "You didn't get hurt when you did it, did you?"
"No." In fact, when he first started doing it, he was pricked by the needle several times because he was not skilled, but Gao Yuan didn't want Luan Ye to know about it.
Today is Luan Ye’s birthday, so Luan Ye should be happy.
"Right!" He suddenly remembered something, picked up the little black ball again, and then stroked its fur in one direction, "Look at this!"
"I only sewed words on this one," Gao Yuan said, breathing a sigh of relief. "Luckily, I made the right choice."
Luan Ye saw the word "Yuan" hidden inside.
He suddenly guessed why Gao Yuan was so nervous just now. Luan Ye touched Gao Yuan's fingers and said nothing.
"When I get back, I'll make another one with 'Wild' written on it," Gao Yuan said, "and then I'll hang it up too."
"I'll do it for you this time." Luan Ye said.
Gao Yuan subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when he met Luan Ye's gaze, he couldn't say anything to refuse, so he could only nod: "Okay, I'll go back and record a video tutorial for you, and you can follow the tutorial."
This will prevent Luan Ye from accidentally getting pricked by a needle like he did at that time.
"How can this be possible?" Luan Ye couldn't help but complain.
"Otherwise... I don't want it." Gao Yuan threatened Luan Ye in a not very skillful way, then he took Luan Ye's hand and said, "Now that the gift has been delivered, let's go."
It wasn't until they were about to leave that Luan Ye remembered they were standing on the podium. But before he could even check if anyone was watching them, Gao Yuan's powerful grip drew his attention away.
Luan Ye raised his head and looked forward.
"--Let's go." Gao Yuan turned around and looked at Luan Ye, the happiness in his eyes almost overflowing, "Boyfriend!"
