Chapter 43 Defeat Bai Lian and sleep with that athlete (17)
The boy lay in bed, his body unnaturally stiff, his breathing rapid and subdued. His hands rested lightly on the back and shoulders of the person in his arms, his eyes fixed on the rosy sleeping face, a smile on his lips, but his thoughts were a tangled mess.
His mouth and nose were filled with the rich aroma of camellia, with a hint of sweat from the person in his arms, but it didn't feel disgusting at all, as if the smell was emanating from that person. When had Han Yizhe ever had such an experience, or when had he ever experienced such a thing?
He fixed his eyes on the clothes in Li Ziyan's arms, but the corners of his lips unconsciously rose up. He really couldn't suppress the inexplicable joy and pride in his heart.
"Brother..." Han Yize whispered softly in Li Ziyan's ear, then stretched out his hand and used a little force to bring the two closer together.
"You don't know, when I was a freshman, many people confessed their feelings to Zi Yan, both men and women, but Zi Yan rejected them all. It wasn't until my sophomore year that things got a little better."
"Love knows no gender. I just don't have any feelings for him, but...but if that person were you, I might agree..."
The words of the senior and Li Ziyan kept repeating in Han Yize's ears, like the magic spells that tempted Adam and Eve to eat the forbidden fruit, making Han Yize's heart itchy and sweet.
He swallowed, slowly lowered his head in the faint moonlight, and placed a light kiss on Li Ziyan's white but pink ear. Then he quickly retracted his face, as if he had done something bad, but he felt unusually comfortable and satisfied.
The next morning, Han Yize woke up first. Li Ziyan kept the same posture as last night, curled up in his arms obediently, like a newborn kitten. After watching Li Ziyan's quiet and obedient sleeping face for a while, Han Yize quietly climbed down from the upper bunk.
Yesterday's Ma Yuan exam was the last of his sophomore year, so Li Ziyan didn't need to get up early to take it. However, Han Yizhe, a freshman, still had an Ideological and Political Theory exam to take today. So he had to get up early, hurriedly prepare breakfast for Li Ziyan, and then head to the exam room.
"Finally, the exams are over, brothers! We're finally free and it's time to go home!" The eldest brother put his arm around Han Yize's shoulders, his expression full of emotion. "I really didn't expect that going to college isn't easy either. It's even more tiring than when we were in high school!"
"That's what I'm saying! They simply believed what the teacher said. Our old class teacher and coach in high school all told me, 'Hey, why are you so tired now? It will be easy once you go to college. Bah! They are a bunch of liars!' The third brother also sighed with emotion. He looked at Bai Haoxuan beside him, and wanted to let him take over the conversation, but then he glanced at Han Yize, who was sandwiched between him and the eldest brother, with an anxious face and a frown on his brow, and finally did not open his mouth.
"Oh, by the way, Second Brother, are you coming back today? I've booked a car for tomorrow morning, and Third Brother is leaving soon. When are you and Fourth Brother leaving?"
"...I'm not going back today. The ticket I booked is in a few days. Don't worry, you can go your own way." Actually, Han Yize's ticket was not booked for a few days. He originally booked a flight for tonight, but after hearing yesterday that Li Ziyan was going to stay in school, he didn't know what happened, but he resolutely canceled the ticket and paid a large cancellation fee, but he didn't feel bad at all.
"Where's the fourth one? When is he leaving?"
"I, I'm leaving tomorrow night." Bai Haoxuan glanced at Han Yize's expression secretly while speaking, but the other party did not show any fluctuation at all because of his words.
In this subtle atmosphere, the two returned to the dormitory together. Han Yize went back to his own dormitory to get some clean clothes, and then returned to Li Ziyan's dormitory.
When he returned, Li Ziyan was sitting on his small stool, his face still red, but much better than yesterday. His breakfast box was wrapped in a garbage bag, and there was no smell in the room.
"Yizhe, you're back?" Li Ziyan's eyes widened a little, as if he didn't expect the other party to appear in front of him again. He looked fresh, with messy hair on his forehead. He had changed into warm and cute Totoro pajamas, and was also wearing Han Yizhe's coat. He seemed to be even younger than Han Yizhe.
Han Yize's eyes were on Li Ziyan. When he glanced at his clothes, his eyes were a little subtle, but also a little teasing.
Noticing the meaningful look in the other person's eyes, Li Ziyan followed his gaze and saw the clothes in his hand. He turned his head away, pursed his lips, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know how to explain.
"Are you feeling better? Your temperature had dropped a little when I left. Did you take the medicine on the table?"
"I ate it. Thank you, Yizhe..."
Han Yize put the things aside, walked to Li Ziyan, half squatted down, reached out his hand to touch Li Ziyan's forehead, and hesitated to rub Li Ziyan's hair.
"Brother, it's okay, no need to thank me, I ordered takeout and it will be delivered at noon."
"Yeah." Li Ziyan nodded, his expression particularly well-behaved. He sat there, not daring to look Han Yizhe in the eye. "I remember you guys are completely off today, right? When are you going back?"
"...No rush, I booked a ticket for the next few days."
"So late?"
"Um."
Han Yize's palms were sweating, and he didn't know what he was nervous about, but fortunately Li Ziyan didn't ask any questions. After the two of them finished lunch, Li Ziyan felt a little tired, probably because the cold medicine he took contained sleeping ingredients. Li Ziyan went to bed to rest soon.
After hesitating for a while, Han Yize climbed onto the bed, sat on the edge of the bed, reached out to cover Li Ziyan with the quilt, and his fingers touched Li Ziyan's chin inconspicuously.
"Where's my brother? When will he come home?"
Li Ziyan's eyes froze for a moment, and he shook his head, "I'm not going home."
"Why? Won't your family be worried if you don't go home?"
"...I'll be alone if I go back, so it's okay."
"one person?"
"My parents passed away when I was in high school, and I have lived alone ever since." This background was indeed something Li Ziyan had not expected, but it was actually a very convenient thing for him, after all, it could prevent his family from discovering the flaws.
A hint of surprise and pity appeared in Han Yize's eyes. He opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. He looked at Li Ziyan's lowered eyes, bent down, and pressed Li Ziyan's head in his arms.
"Feel sorry……"
"It's okay, it's been a long time."
"Um."
The two of them hugged each other quietly for a while. Although not much happened, their relationship became closer and more ambiguous during these few nights of sleeping in the same bed.
On the second day, Li Ziyan was almost recovered. He did not have a fever, only a slight cough. Han Yize agreed to go back to the dormitory to pack his luggage only after confirming again and again that Li Ziyan was not seriously ill.
“Squeak—”
The dormitory door was pushed open, and the person sitting in the middle of the room turned around. When he saw Han Yize, a look of surprise and joy appeared on his face.
"Yizhe! You, you're back!"
"Yeah." Han Yize didn't even give Bai Haoxuan a look, but just responded lightly and started packing his luggage.
"Yizhe, you still won't forgive me..." Bai Haoxuan followed behind Han Yizhe, tears in his eyes, with an expression of being wronged. "I have already apologized to you, why can't you forgive me? What do you want to do to forgive me?"
"I don't need your apology. If you really feel you are wrong, you should apologize to the real victim."
"...I know, it must be because of Senior. He won't let you forgive me."
Han Yizhe really didn't want to talk to Bai Haoxuan anymore. He simply packed his luggage and stood at the door. "We have nothing to talk about."
"Yizhe! You, you really can't see? I've done so much, and you..."
Han Yize didn't give him a chance to finish his words and left the dormitory directly.
He also didn't notice Bai Haoxuan's sad look.
"Brother, I'm back."
"I'm back now. I hope I didn't leave anything behind."
"No, I brought them all back." Han Yizhe felt relieved when he saw Li Ziyan's appearance. He touched the tip of his nose and said, "Brother, you should pack your luggage too."
"Hmm? Why?"
"Would you like to come back to my house for the New Year this year?"
"Going back to your home for the New Year? This is..." Li Ziyan was stunned for a moment, then saw Han Yize slowly walking towards him.
"Brother, come home with me for the New Year."
"But it will be inconvenient. It's okay. I can do it alone."
"It's not a big deal. I've already told my parents, and they really want you to come."
Han Yize's eyes were clear but filled with anticipation. He held Li Ziyan's hand, and a thin layer of sweat oozed out of his palms.
"Then, I'll trouble you to take care of it."
