The boy jogged over, and after seeing what Yitai was wearing, he took off his down jacket and draped it over Yitai.
Yitai turned around, his face frozen.
The boy smiled gently and said, "Why didn't you answer my calls? I was worried about you for so long."
When Yitai saw him, he didn't know what to do with his hands and feet.
He stammered, "How did you find me? I clearly..."
The boy sat down next to him, leaned closer, and reached out to straighten his collar.
To outsiders, there was nothing wrong with the scene, but only Yitai knew that he was angry.
The boy's fingers rubbed against the back of his neck, where there was a scar covered with a band-aid.
The boy's slender fingers tore open the bandage, stroking the edge of the wound intermittently.
Yitai gritted his teeth and remained silent.
"You're really naughty."
The boy whispered a cold sentence in his ear, then looked up and smiled at Yi Mu and Xie Tuoyu.
"Brother Xie told me that you are going to the countryside. Could you take me with you? I've never been before and I'd like to know what the New Year is like in the countryside."
Yi Mu opened his mouth, about to speak.
Yitai interrupted him with an unprecedentedly panicked tone, and said to the boy in a serious tone, "Don't you still have experiments to do? If you don't finish them, your supervisor won't let you off the hook."
The boy smiled and his eyes narrowed.
"I prepared everything in advance and was planning to celebrate with you, but you actually ran away. I'm a little angry."
When Yitai heard him say he was angry, his body trembled.
Yi Mu always felt that there was something strange about the boys' smiles.
Xie Tuoyu readily agreed: "Sure, sure, anyway, my house is big enough to accommodate me. Have you bought the plane tickets yet?"
The boy took out his phone. "I'm going to make a call."
The boy walked away, and Yitai threw his down jacket aside, grabbed his suitcase, and prepared to slip away.
As if by telepathy, the boy suddenly turned his head, a faint smile on his face: "Yitai, where are you going?"
Yitai stood frozen for three seconds like a monkey in a daze before reluctantly letting go of the suitcase handle.
"I need to use the restroom."
The boy hung up the phone, walked over to him, gave him a warning look, and spoke in a calm and unhurried tone.
"I'll go with you."
After they left, Yi Mu asked Xie Tuoyu, "I have a feeling that something's off about that guy. What do you think?"
Xie Tuoyu slurped the last mouthful of instant noodles into his mouth and shook his head very seriously.
“I think that kid looks pretty good. Haven’t you always thought that Yitai’s attitude towards studying was not proper?”
He made this academically excellent friend, and with him keeping an eye on him, getting into Harvard might not be a problem.
Yi Mu strongly suspected that Xie Tuoyu was deceiving him.
After Xie Tuoyu finished speaking, he realized he was talking nonsense and laughed.
Yi Mu nudged him with his elbow and said angrily, "You think I'm joking with you?"
Xie Tuoyu put his arm around his shoulder and begged for mercy.
“My dear, I was wrong. I think Yitai is already twenty years old, and he knows right from wrong.”
If his friend were truly malicious, Yitai wouldn't have let him get close at all. Don't you think the way they acted looked a bit like they were flirting?
After he finished speaking, without giving Yi Mu a chance to react, he quickly kissed him on the lips.
"Let's not concern ourselves with other people's business. Let's think about what we can do in the countryside. There are plenty of haystacks back home."
Yi Mu, disgusted by the greasy kiss, turned his face away and said, "Can't you think about something else?"
Airport staff announced that the plane was ready for takeoff and asked everyone to prepare to board.
Xie Tuoyu pulled Yi Mu towards the boarding gate, intentionally leaving Yi Tai and his friend behind.
He was going home this time to go on his honeymoon with Yimu, and he didn't want Yitai to ruin it.
However, just before the plane took off, he was disappointed to see Yitai and the boy carrying their luggage onto the plane, their seats on the other side of the aisle.
Yitai was wearing a men's down jacket, and after sitting down, he put on the hood, his posture was a bit awkward.
Yimu took a nap several thousand meters in the air. When he woke up, he found Yitai arguing quietly with his friend.
"Get the fuck off me!"
"You're being disobedient again. Didn't you get enough fucking before?"
"You bastard, there are people all over here!"
"Aren't they all asleep? Keep your hands busy, or I'll tell your brother you're dating me as soon as we get off the plane."
"Bullshit! Who's dating you? We're just casual sex partners!"
"Fine, then. Be gentle, you've pulled all the hairs off."
"I'll make you suffer, you pervert!"
Yi Mu was dumbfounded; he no longer understood the world of young people.
A hand reached out from the side and covered his eyes.
Xie Tuoyu pulled him onto his shoulder and whispered, "Don't worry about other people's business, go to sleep. You've been working non-stop lately, it breaks my heart."
Xie Tuoyu had a scent that made Yi Mu feel at ease, and he leaned on Xie Tuoyu's shoulder and fell asleep without realizing it.
After getting off the plane, Yi Mu noticed Yi Tai's walking posture. Although he tried his best to hide it, his awkwardness was still revealed.
That trip to the toilet must have been either very uncomfortable or very comfortable for him.
The other side of the boy next to Yitai that he showed on the plane made Yimu frown.
But after he got out of the car, he seemed very considerate towards Yitai.
Whether it's an act or not, Yi Mu can tell.
If this boy is truly in love with Yitai, then Yimu can rest assured.
He decided to focus on observing the boy's character during this trip.
If Xie Tuoyu knew what he was thinking, he would definitely want to pack Yitai up and kick him into outer space. This brat can't even make his love life peaceful.
