Before they knew it, it was New Year's Eve. The hospital had only paid a portion of the money so that Gu Qingxian could have her medical check-ups done. They would be ready to perform surgery as soon as the money arrived.
Back home from the hospital, Shen Ye couldn't help but reach out and hug Gu Qingxian's waist. "Brother, the surgery will probably take place on the fifth or sixth day of the new year. Are you happy?"
Startled by Shen Ye's sudden embrace, Gu Qingxian was slightly taken aback. His mind resisted the idea of two men being intimate, but his heart and brain controlled his hands, making him involuntarily reach out and hug Shen Ye, slowly saying, "Happy..."
Shen Ye asked in a hoarse voice, "Brother, will you have a girl you like in the future? Will you get married?"
Gu Qingxian was taken aback. Why would this little boy suddenly ask such a question? He didn't even know the answers to these two questions himself, so how could he possibly answer them?
"Maybe." After saying that, she paused, then continued, "Xiaoxi, is something on your mind?"
After a long silence, Shen Ye took a deep breath and finally mustered up the courage to say to him, "Brother... I've fallen for someone. What should I do?"
"You must be a really good person to be liked by you, right?"
"He is the best person in the world, the one I love..." A person from two lifetimes.
Perhaps feeling guilty, Shen Ye was afraid that Gu Qingxian would find out about his feelings for him, so he quickly pushed him away, "Brother, it's New Year's Eve today, shall I go and make the New Year's Eve dinner?"
Although it's noon now, during the years I lived alone, I always ate my New Year's Eve dinner at noon.
Gu Qingxian nodded.
A sudden heavy snowfall outside the window blanketed the entire world in white.
The interior, however, was warm and peaceful.
Looking at Gu Qingxian's smiling face, Shen Ye became even more determined. No matter what identity he used, as long as he could stay by his side, that was enough.
Love is restraint; only liking is unrestrained.
This time, Shen Ye was truly determined to be with Gu Qingxian, so she was not afraid even if she had to watch him get married and have children in the future.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, Shen Ye hugged Gu Qingxian from behind and rested his head on his shoulder, which aroused a lot of doubts in Gu Qingxian's heart.
"Xiaoxi, you're acting strange today, what's wrong?"
"Xiaoxi just wants to hug her brother more, because she's afraid she won't have the chance again."
Gu Qingxian let Shen Ye hold her, and although it felt a little awkward, she felt happy and content.
"Why would you say that? Didn't we agree that the stream would follow me wherever I went?"
“But my brother will get married eventually, and then Xiaoxi won’t be able to get along with him like this anymore.” Her eyes were a little red, and Shen Ye was increasingly doubting whether she had become a woman, and that she wanted to cry at the drop of a hat.
Shen Ye's words startled Gu Qingxian, and a strange sadness welled up from his heart. Since when did he start to fear that he would not have this little boy's company in the future?
For just a few hours, Shen Ye held Gu Qingxian from behind, talking to him intermittently.
The blizzard stopped and the wind died down. Shen Ye wanted to go for a walk with Gu Qingxian, afraid that they wouldn't be able to do this again in the future.
The place they lived in was old and dilapidated, but the rent was very low, which is why the original owner rented it.
Holding Gu Qingxian's hand, we walked slowly through the snow. I really wanted to grow old with him like this.
As I was thinking, I suddenly heard a loud, sharp crash from a window upstairs, which was teetering under the weight of the thick snow. Immediately afterwards, a shower of sharp shards of glass fell straight down, accompanied by the falling snow...
