End of story
the next day.
Tao Luobai, whose infusion was almost over, looked at his mobile phone anxiously.
Meng Yisheng and Bai Qiaosong had been talking for half an hour, but neither of them responded to him.
He was a little nervous.
"Luo Bai." Meng Yisheng's gentle voice came.
Tao Luobai looked at the boy who was slowly walking towards him at the door with some surprise, and muttered, "Didn't you say you didn't need to come over?"
"I don't have anything to do today, so I just came here. Besides, there may not be such an opportunity in the future." Having said that, Meng Yisheng lowered his eyes.
"Your friends should have returned to the dorms."
Tao Luobai responded. What he wanted to know most at the moment was not this, but what Bai Qiaosong thought about the two of them being together. Yesterday, Bai Qiaosong found out that he and Meng Yisheng were together, and he got very angry after realizing it belatedly. Tao Luobai still dared not respond to Bai Qiaosong's angry look at that time.
"Aren't you reluctant to have me running around all day?"
Tao Luobai nodded. He did have such an idea. Meng Yisheng was only a freshman and everything was new to him. Whether it was a scholarship or admission to graduate school, everything would be possible if he worked hard from now on. He couldn't take up too much of his time.
"That's right." Meng Yisheng saw Tao Luobai shaking his head and smiled again, "From now on, if we want to see each other, just call me. If we don't want to see each other, we can just meet in the Pesticide Canyon..."
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you without your consent." Meng Yisheng said this and touched Tao Luobai's head.
"We can just stop at dating in Pesticide Canyon like we did a year ago."
Tao Luobai nodded, but suddenly realized something was wrong. "What do you mean by falling in love in Pesticide Canyon?"
Hearing Tao Luobai's doubts, Meng Yisheng was also confused, "You..."
Meng Yisheng didn't know what he was thinking about, and he also sighed.
"It's my fault. You were the one who confessed your feelings at that time. Even if I was right, it wasn't completely unintentional. We weren't in a relationship either. I said the wrong thing."
Hearing this, Tao Luobai became even more confused. "What do you mean by unilateral confession?"
He had met Meng Yisheng once a year ago, okay? What's more, he liked Brother Shan Yao at that time, and the only false confession he made was to Brother Shan Yao. How could he confess to Meng Yisheng?
"I haven't confessed my feelings to anyone--" Tao Luobai said this subconsciously. Since his secret love at that time ended in vain, he didn't want this illusory secret love to affect their current relationship.
"How could you not have confessed to me? My chat history is still here." Hearing Tao Luobai's denial, Meng Yi became anxious and immediately took out the long-forgotten penguin on his phone and flipped through it.
Tao Luobai took a glance and although he didn't see Meng Yisheng's online name clearly, he found that Meng Yisheng's avatar looked particularly familiar.
Extraordinarily familiar?
Isn’t that the avatar used by Shining Brother?
No way, Tao Luobai swallowed his saliva, finding it hard to believe.
Of course, after the evidence was placed before his eyes, he had no choice but to believe it.
Meng Yisheng stretched his hand holding the mobile phone straight in front of Tao Luobai.
Tao Luobai looked at the chat history in which he pretended to be a girl and sent a confession. On the surface, his eyes were still fixed on a certain place on the phone, but in fact, his mind had already flown out the window.
Why, why are the two people I like actually the same person?
What's more important is that he hasn't realized that these two people are the same person.
If Tao Luobai hadn't had an IV drip hanging on his right hand, he would have covered his red-burning face with his hands in embarrassment.
Seeing Tao Luobai's expression, Meng Yisheng asked, "Are you planning to regret this?"
He had just talked with Tao Luobai's friend and learned that Tao Luobai once liked someone very much. Based on the time point mentioned by Bai Qiaosong, he was even more certain that the person Tao Luobai liked was him.
But now, he is a little uncertain.
Otherwise, why didn't Tao Luobai admit the facts of those confession quotes?
"I didn't!" Tao Luobai was a little angry when he heard that Meng Yisheng actually suspected that he had changed his mind. He was just a little surprised and couldn't believe it, not that he was unwilling to accept it.
The two people he liked at the same time had become his boyfriends to some extent. He was so happy that he couldn't wait to regret it.
"Then why are you so secretive?" Meng Yisheng said, his voice getting lower and lower.
He remembered Bai Qiaosong saying that before Tao Luobai liked him, he liked girls.
So, was Tao Luobai with him just for the sake of novelty? Meng Yisheng bit his lip nervously and unconsciously, "Ever since you've been with me, you haven't said those words you said a year ago. Do you feel that being with me is a bit forced?"
If you really want to, we can actually break up. This sentence appeared in Meng Yisheng's mind, but in the end, he found that he couldn't say it out loud.
Or rather, he was not prepared to say it, and the fist hidden under his sleeve slowly tightened.
"I won't force it." Tao Luobai shook his head. He was still digesting the fact that Brother Shan Yao was Meng Yisheng, or perhaps he was asking himself whether he should tell Meng Yisheng that the confession was a deliberate deception on his part.
Although there was a bit of truth mixed in with the deception.
Tao Luobai knew that this was his only chance to end his relationship with Meng Yisheng.
As long as he told Meng Yisheng that his previous confession was just a scheme to escape the guilt after deceiving others, and that he had no feelings for Meng Yisheng, and that he agreed to his confession this time only because he felt lonely while receiving an IV drip in the hospital and needed someone to accompany him.
Then Meng Yisheng will no longer be his boyfriend and will completely disappear from his life.
Tao Luobai thought of this and looked at Meng Yisheng in front of him again.
Meng Yisheng was still as handsome as ever, but he was a little too nervous at this moment, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Was he also concentrating on waiting for his answer? Tao Luobai thought for no reason, his brows gradually furrowed.
The fact that he repeatedly fell in love with what he thought were two people but were actually one person told him that he would only fall for the type of person named Meng Yisheng in his life, and even more so, he would only fall for a boy named Meng Yisheng in his life.
The gender gap is the biggest obstacle between them.
Thinking of his loving but serious father at home, Tao Luobai was in a dilemma for a moment.
Should I continue? Tao Luobai asked himself in his heart.
In the hospital.
The sound of dripping water, the ringing of bells, the hurried footsteps of the nurses, and the friendly voice of the doctor making rounds were all no match for the violent heartbeat in Tao Luobai's heart at this moment.
He thought. He had the answer.
Tao Luobai: "Actually, I gave you a nickname before, but I never got around to it."
Meng Yisheng seemed to be still nervous. When he heard the topic change direction inexplicably, he was slightly stunned. "What nickname?"
"Brother Shining." Tao Luobai said cheerfully, "If you agree, this name will become your exclusive title from now on."
"So, do you agree?" Tao Luobai asked anxiously.
"I can agree, but you haven't answered my initial question yet. Don't you want to..."
"Hey, be careful--" Meng Yisheng watched Tao Luobai throw himself into his arms. The long tube of the IV drip drew an arc in the air, swaying along with Tao Luobai and falling to his side.
Fresh and vigorous energy filled the sides of his nose.
Tao Luobai leaned on Meng Yisheng's chest and whispered, "Did you hear my answer?"
The two looked at each other in silence.
Only the symphony of their heartbeats declared the unrest between the two sides at this moment.
Meng Yisheng lowered his eyes and hugged Tao Luobai tighter: "Yeah."
A year and a half later.
After finishing the civil service exam tutoring class, Tao Luobai went straight back to the house he rented outside the school and began to enjoy the dinner prepared for him by Meng Yisheng.
As for Meng Yisheng, he had already finished his meal and returned to school to study hard. There were only a few places for postgraduate study in their college, and the major was also what Meng Yisheng was interested in, so it was inevitable that he would spend a little more on the piecework.
After Tao Luobai finished his meal, he started washing the dishes. After washing the dishes, he opened the pesticide and started playing solo.
The first time, as usual, the pesticide team was defeated. There was no other way, they were too good at giving up in the fight.
Tao Luobai started the second game, and this time it went smoothly. He had a rhythm in the early stage, and it kept snowballing in the later stage, until some people sent him reservation messages.
As for who sent the appointment message, Tao Luobai smiled. He didn't even need to think about it, it must have been sent by someone in his family.
In order to always be able to catch up with Tao Luobai in the double row and not have to wait for a few minutes or more than ten minutes, Meng Yisheng would go to the pesticide camp to make an appointment with him in advance when getting off the subway, to ensure that he could start with Tao Luobai after returning home and not waste too much of each other's time waiting.
At that time, Tao Luobai and Meng Yisheng had a quarrel about this matter. It was not because of anything else, but because Tao Luobai's phone kept freezing when he was making an appointment.
Of course, the quarrel was over, and a subsequent solution was found - Meng Yisheng replaced Tao Luobai with a mobile phone with better performance. Of course, Meng Yisheng bought it without telling Tao Luobai at that time.
This made Tao Luobai so angry that he took out his own small treasury and bought a few more sets of information for Meng Yisheng as compensation.
In fact, he was not very angry at that time. He was just angry that Meng Yisheng did not tell him that he spent money on him, which made him feel like they were not familiar with each other.
In fact, they are already very familiar with each other.
Even the brotherhood level in Pesticide has reached level 120.
As for why they were not tied to a couple, it was because Tao Luobai reached a peak later on, and there were always shameless men under him who tried to put the blame on him. Tao Luobai was right and talked him directly to the point of silencing him. The man was not convinced and wanted to add him as his intimate partner to bully him.
Meng Yisheng, who was wearing a heart sign, was the first target of attack and suffered a great misfortune.
Tao Luobai still remembers how Meng Yisheng looked when he met the first person who scolded him based on their relationship with him. He was so serious, as if he was talking about some profound academic truths. But when that person scolded him, Meng Yisheng changed his original appearance and became extremely aggressive.
Although people with high quality are destined to have insufficient attack power.
Because of this, Meng Yisheng was unable to help Tao Luobai vent his anger and was sad for a long time.
While comforting him, Tao Luobai changed the relationship and told him that this way he would not be scolded.
So, this kind of life is also good, isn’t it?
Tao Luobai looked at Meng Yisheng who was carefully choosing heroes during the bp stage, and unconsciously smiled.
Even though he hasn't told his father that he's in a relationship with a boy, even though he hasn't gotten ashore yet, even though he's not sure what his future holds, he's no longer afraid.
Because there was a man named Meng Yisheng who had always been waiting by his side.
