Chapter 84: Happy Birthday to you!

For the first time in six years, Yu Fan has spoken frankly about the things he hid in the corner of his high school, the things he didn't dare to let anyone see.

He is full of calm, finished also to the dumbfounded several people in the office added a "I'm off duty", and then carry dishes like pulling Chen Jingshen walked away.

On the way home, Chen Jingshen turned his head several times to say something, but when he saw his red ears exposed outside his cold hat, he turned his head back.

It's the end of the day, the streets are crowded, every passerby is in a hurry, and their arms are close together.

Yu Fan viciously pinched Chen Jingshen's finger, "Chen Jingshen, almost done."

"What's wrong with me." Chen Jingshen said.

"Laugh again and beat you up."

Chen Jingshen rolled his throat a bit, inclined his head and lowered his voice, whispered in the crowd, "Yu Fan , you didn't say that when you chased me."

"?"

Yu Fan has never seen such a brazen person, eyes are wide open double: "...... I chase you?"

"Let's talk. I'm not going to be domestically abusive to you-" Chen Jingshen raised an eyebrow, "Isn't that what it says?"

"......"

Yu Fan jerked his hand out of his hand, rolled his eyes, and without looking back, was about to enter the barbecue restaurant next door. Without taking two steps, he was hooked by the neck and pulled back.

"No more of this." Chen Jingshen says, "Change your flavor today."

Yu Fan had already arranged an elbow and uppercut for Chen Jingshen, but he leaned on Chen Jingshen and asked coldly, "What's the change?"

Yu Fan doesn't use her family's kitchen much, usually cooking noodles or ravioli at best, and after six years away, she returns with the same handiwork she had in high school.

Finally fired up officially today and the hot aroma was overflowing.

"Chen Jingshen, how come you can still cook?" Yu Fan leaned against the wall, asking in a daze.

The kitchen in Yu Fan's home is very simple, open-plan, right next to the foyer and opposite the bathroom. The landlord gave Yu Fan an apron when he rented the apartment, but Yu Fan has never used it and has just tied it around Chen Jingshen.

Blue, also with the brand logo, earthy, with Chen Jingshen's face paralyzed face is a bit funny: "After renting a room learned, only a few simple."

"You rent a room?" Yu Fan looked at him in a stunned manner, "Is the company far from ...... your home."

"Okay." Chen Jingshen answered vaguely. The kitchen was small, so they were close together, and Chen Jingshen inclined her head to kiss him and said, "Go wait on the couch."

Yu Fan frowned, always feeling something strange somewhere, when the cell phone on the sofa suddenly thumped a few more times.

The sound hadn't died down since he got home. Yu Fan slumped down on the couch and absentmindedly picked up his cell phone to read the messages, then was nearly poked and prodded by a screen full of exclamation points-

[Sister Wang Yue: Yu Fan! You're not being honest!

[Sister Wang Yue: I told you so! I told you! I told you why you were wearing his jacket! I told you how you were aggravated in the car that day! You also told me you were old classmates!

[Ms. Wang Yue: Ahhhhhh, I was telling all the people who came to ask me before that you're definitely not gay! My face hurts--]

Wang Yue: I saw something wrong with you two the other day! It's not like you're old classmates at all, you're just like that!

Broken here, Yu Fan's curiosity tickled: [What is it?]

[Sister Wang Yue: Old Lover.]

[-: ......]

Sister Wang Yue: So when exactly did you fall in love with that big handsome guy!

[-: High school.]

Wang Yue sent over a hundred thousand question marks: [High school talking about now? How is that possible? Wasn't it already going on before you came to Ningcheng? But how come I've never seen him come to you before?

[-: Long-distance relationship.]

[Sister Wang Yue: I haven't seen you contacting him either.]

[ -: Telepathy.]

Sensing his perfunctory behavior, Wang Yue sent several knife emoticons: [So you guys came out of the closet in high school? Meaning that Xian Jing knew about it too?

[-: No, first time out this afternoon.]

[Sister Wang Yue: Oh ...... understand, must keep it a secret.]

No need to--

Yu Fan's fingers lolled as he stared silently at the words he had typed.

Maybe it was because it was an opening just now, or maybe they had both grown up. He actually didn't feel that it was a serious matter to let others know that he and Chen Jingshen were in a relationship now.

[Sister Wang Yue: Wait! Last question!

Yu Fan was revived by his cell phone and returned a question mark.

Wang Yue: You can't scold me for asking, I'm really curious, I've been thinking about it tonight, you must tell me honestly or I won't be able to sleep tonight, I'll be dreaming about you.

Yu Fan was just about to reply, so don't ask. He's typing faster than he is, so it's obvious he really wants to know--

[Sister Wang Yue: Are you a one or a zero?]

Chen Jingshen looked across the room, "Hot?"

Yu Fan bit back on his chopsticks and glanced down at the dish, "There's chili?"

"No." Chen Jingshen said, "Then why are you blushing."

"......"

Yu Fan had always thought that he had changed his blind face, after all, he hadn't committed many crimes in the past few years.

But until he showered and brushed his teeth at night, his earlobes were pink.

Yu Fan brushes his teeth very slowly as he stares at himself in the mirror, his thoughts already flying to the sky.

He hadn't learned about it, but he wasn't completely ignorant; he and Chen Jingshen had used their hands or mouths, not really doing it at all-

Grass.

Grass ......

Further down wanted something to happen. Yu Fan watched the person's face in the mirror start to redden again, and expressionlessly increased the intensity of her brushing, the swish sounding like sharpening a knife.

When I came out, Chen Jingshen was on the sofa playing with his cell phone. Yu Fan dried his clothes and sat over, his mind still confused: "Chen Jingshen, what are you doing wandering around today?"

"Look at where you've lived the last couple years."

Yu Fan's heart beat a little faster again. In fact, he kind of guessed it, but still sickly like want to hear Chen Jingshen say it.

He licked his lips, expression rare a little soft and twisted his head: "You ......" Yu Guang glanced at Chen Jingshen cell phone in the picture, Yu Fan voice again raw stop.

Chen Jingshen waited for a while without waiting for the following, "Huh?"

"What are you doing?"

"Break your record." Chen Jingshen manipulates the Snake in the screen.

"......"

You've been trying to fucking tweet me all this time just for this, haven't you?

Chen Jingshen playing focused, the people around him suddenly reached out to break his face, Chen Jingshen said in a faint voice: "Don't cheat ......"

Chen Jingshen's fingers pause as his lips are sipped hard.

Yu Fan kissed and saw that he didn't move, and hurriedly went up to help him pocket the snake that was about to touch the wall; he scratched his finger on Chen Jingshen's screen for a while, frowned and poked with his shoulder, "Hurry up and follow it, so as not to say that I'm lousy."

"Break it next time." Chen Jingshen picked up his cell phone and tossed it aside, turning his head to gag the trickster.

Yu Fan felt that he had been influenced by Chen Jingshen, and his thoughts had been unhealthy in the past few days. Chen Jingshen only touched his lips, and he felt a numbness behind his ears. He was too familiar with this feeling, and immediately raised his hand to pinch Chen Jingshen's face.

When he saw Chen Jingshen's friend circle, he had an idea, Chen Jingshen first came to this city, how to go to the beautiful place to walk. Yu Fan these years has been the scene of Ningcheng all over, know what place is worth going, Chen Jingshen the day after tomorrow back, then he simply tomorrow leave, take Chen Jingshen to go to walk a bit.

Yu Fan stepped aside a bit and pressed against the tip of Chen Jingshen's nose: "Chen Jingshen, do you like mountains or the sea?"

"Like you." Chen Jingshen, his mouth pinched and bulging, replied vaguely and coldly.

"......"

Yu Fan let go of him and coldly consulted him, "Tomorrow we--"

The ringing of his cell phone interrupted him. Chen Jingshen glanced at the caller ID and frowned slightly, not looking very eager to answer.

Yu Fan reached for the phone and pressed connect for him, Chen Jingshen simply pressed speakerphone and leaned back into the sofa, "What for."

"How far is your place from the airport? I'll book a flight for you." Luo Liyang anxiously said on the other end, "There's something wrong with the server, so hurry back first."

Chen Jingshen lifted his eyelids, the bottom of his eyes instantly clear. The sofa beside him was light, and his boyfriend had gotten up and walked to the corner of the floating window, pushing the black suitcase he had just brought over out again.

"Picking on me to have problems when I'm on vacation?"

"It's the end of the year, isn't it? I told you! I've told you to finish your work and then take a vacation, you'll be able to take many days of annual leave, but you're in such a hurry." Luo Liyang flipped through the booking software, "How far is your boyfriend's house from the airport? I'll see what time I can book you a ticket."

"Half an hour." Yu Fan said.

"Oh oh ...... huh?" Hearing the unfamiliar voice, Luo Liyang paused for a moment and called out tentatively, "What's that, it wouldn't be a younger sibling, would it? Ah no ...... brother? This, this how should I call ah Jingshen."

Yu Fan was fixed in place by these two epithets.

Chen Jingshen looked at his blank and upset expression, his mood finally got a little better, "Hang up, book the tickets and send a message."

Chen Jingshen There were a few clothes in the suitcase when it arrived, but only the computer and charger were left inside.

Chen Jingshen closed the suitcase and looked up to meet Yu Fan's puzzled eyes.

"Your clothes are still confiscated."

"Put it here and wear it later."

"It's taking up space." Yu Fan said expressionlessly.

Chen Jingshen hmmm, "Then bear with me."

Yu Fan still has some photos to fix tonight, so he can't send people to the airport. He carried the suitcase to the foyer, leaned against the wall and hugged his arms, looking down at Chen Jingshen putting on her shoes.

"What were you going to say to me?" Chen Jingshen asked, "Before answering the phone."

Come back and talk about it.

Yu Fan kicked the plastic bag at his feet and said, "Help me carry the trash down."

Chen Jingshen pushed a suitcase with one hand and carried a garbage bag with the other.

Yu Fan stood in a stance for a moment, wondering what he was thinking. A few seconds later, the open door is pushed open again, and Chen Jingshen folds back in.

Yu Fan: "Don't carry garbage pro-"

Chen Jingshen studied him and sipped very lightly on his mouth.

Chen Jingshen sighed very softly, wanting to ask if they wanted to go back to South City together to take a look around, and finally opened his mouth with the customary line, "Wait for me to come back."

-

Yu Fan had been used to being alone since he was a child. He has lived alone in Ningcheng for more than five years, and used to live alone in Nancheng, too, and never felt anything as he crawled and mingled alone until he grew up.

But Chen Jingshen's first day back on the South Side, he bought two servings when he bought his afternoon meal, and he almost ended up eating his own stomach.

Near the end of the day would inexplicably look up at the glass door of the studio.

The desk that Chen Jingshen used is also subconsciously empty.

Another day, Yu Fan woke up dazed and confused, reached out and touched the empty pillow twice, then suddenly stopped and opened her eyes slowly a few seconds later.

Chen Jingshen obviously didn't stay with him for long, and he also videoed with Chen Jingshen for a while last night, why does he still have this stinky problem when he wakes up ......

He changed his position to lie on his back, his face buried into the pillow, unconsciously thinking about Chen Jingshen in yesterday's video.

It's colder in South City than here, Chen Jingshen wore a gray knit shirt, opened the window because he thought it was stuffy, and was still at the office at 1:00 in the morning working on the code.

Halfway through, someone came into his office to talk to him about work, and by the sound of his voice, it was the same person from the phone call the other day, plaid shirt, slightly chubby, with an empty piece of hair in the middle, and glasses that looked thick and heavy.

Chen Jingshen stood his cell phone on the table to talk to him, so the other party naturally saw him. He poked Chen Jingshen with his arm and said, "I knew your boyfriend must be very handsome," and then smilingly said hello to Yu Fan.

Yu Fan was very stiff at the time and responded in a wooden voice, "Hello uncle."

"......"

The other party never interacted with Yu Fan again until he left. When the office door was closed, Chen Jingshen finally couldn't hold back, the back of his hand blocked his mouth, and his shoulders were shaking.

"Chen Jingshen, think I can't hit you through the screen?" Yu Fan Inexplicable.

"Do you know how old he is?" Chen Jingshen asked.

Yu Fan: "How old?"

Chen Jingshen : "3 years older than me, 27."

Yu Fan: "......"

Yu Fan rubbed his face awkwardly and asked, "Chen Jingshen, do you think you'll be as bald as him at 27."

Then Chen Jingshen couldn't stop laughing.

Of course, the guy in the video has dark, lush hair and doesn't look like he's been at this risk in recent decades. And ......

Chen Jingshen is actually a bit different from his usual self when he is working. His tall, thin body nestled in the chair, knocking code expression is always light and casual open, occasionally tired will turn his eyes over to look at the video ......

Yu Fan lying back on his stomach, half a long time, he revealed a pair of eyes from the pillow, both hands put the phone up in front of his face, deleted some video screenshots from yesterday that were so muddled that he couldn't see his face, and casually turned over a few clear ones, wiping a handful of his face to get up.

"I figured out why things are so cold between you and your boyfriend."

In the studio, Yu Fan has just finished taking a set of photos, and Wang Yue, who is watching from the sidelines with his arms folded, says with emotion.

Cold? Him and Chen Jingshen?

Yu Fan frowned, looking down at the display, "Why?"

"Long-distance relationship, and busy. Look at your boyfriend, he's only been here twice in six years, and he doesn't stay for more than a few days before he leaves, so it's a lot of work." Wang Yue leaned against the window and smoked, "But can't he come back later this time? Tomorrow is your birthday."

Yu Fan: "I don't celebrate birthdays."

Besides, Chen Jingshen doesn't know his birthday.

"That won't work, you've had to do it every year since you came to work for me." Wang Yue says, "Since you don't have a date that day, I'll make a reservation for that private dining room tonight. What do you guys want to eat?"

Knowing that it was useless to object, Yu Fan did not say anything else. He browsed through the photos he had just taken one by one before turning his head to the girl who had been secretly staring at him, "What are you looking at?"

The little assistant was startled and immediately clutched the prop flowers in her hand, "No!"

After a while, the little assistant still couldn't hold back, "I'm just more curious ...... Yu Fan Teacher, if you miss your boyfriend so much, why don't you go see him?"

Yu Fan and Wang Yue both froze for a moment.

"I don't miss him very much." After a long time, Yu Fan said stiffly.

"Come on, even a blind man can see how many pictures of people you have hidden in your cell phone." Wang Yue also came back to his senses, wrinkled his face and said, "Yeah, I haven't treated you badly on any holiday, right, every vacation is on time, how come you've never gone to see your boyfriend? Besides, aren't you also from Nancheng?"

"......"

Yu Fan was still a bit lost in thought until she got home from work.

Why hasn't he been back to the South Side?

In the past, I was afraid to go back. I was afraid of bringing trouble back, afraid that when I saw Chen Jingshen, I didn't want to leave.

But it was too painful to keep thinking about it, and during that time he drowned himself in part-time jobs and schoolwork, too busy to breathe, too busy to sleep when he got out of bed, too busy to think about it. Over time, it was deliberately forgotten, sealed off to a no-go zone, as if no one mentioned it and he'd forget about the city for the rest of his life.

To this day, is it possible to go back and take a look and make a side trip to Chen Jingshen?

Yu Fan lay on the couch and fumed for a while, and after an unknown amount of time, he raised his hand and slapped his head.

Forget it.

It's not like you're 17 or 18 and that kind of headstrong age ...... to talk about it later.

Yu Fan got up and was about to open the lunch box of roasted pork when WeChat buzzed and Chen Jingshen sent a message---

[s: Working late tonight, no video.]

[s: I broke the record, you played for six years how only this point.]

At dinner time, Wang Yue was on a date with her new boyfriend when she received a phone call from an employee.

"I'd like to take five days off."

The tone of voice was quite tugging, but the other party really seldom took a vacation, and I don't know how many annual vacations he had saved up in the past few years. Wang Yue asked, "Which days?"

"Starting tomorrow." The sound of a suitcase being unzipped came from the other end, "I've negotiated the guests for the next few days, both of you, and have rescheduled."

"So you're not going to celebrate your birthday tomorrow?!" Wang Yue froze for a moment, then responded, "You're going to find a boyfriend?"

"No."

"What was that for?"

Yu Fan throws his clothes in the suitcase, "Cross-country beatings."

Since it's a cross-country beating, you definitely can't let the other side know before you beat them.

Yu Fan bought a plane ticket for twelve o'clock that night, and lay on the sofa playing Snake to consume time. Usually, when I retouch and transfer photos, it's 2:00 a.m. in the blink of an eye, but now it's only half an hour since I played a few games out.

Gluttony hit the wall again. Yu Fan throws his cell phone aside in annoyance and lies on the sofa covering his eyes with his arm, listening a little to his heartbeat.

Jumping a little fast.

He hadn t been back to South City for a really long, long time, and to put it shamefully, this was the ...... first time in his life that he had ever been on an airplane.

How to find Chen Jingshen after getting off the plane, he does not know what company Chen Jingshen is in, not to mention where his rented house is. It seems a bit too obvious to ask explicitly.

After half a day of confused thinking, Yu Fan picked up his cell phone and looked at it again, it was nine o'clock.

With a sigh of relief, he opened the app and was about to call a cab to the airport when a message popped up at the top of the screen - "Buzz!"

The news from the booking software that the plane was delayed due to weather delayed the departure to 3:00 am.

Yu Fan: "......"

Yu Fan fought for another three hours in Snake with the conviction of crushing Chen Jingshen. In the middle of it, he even sent Chen Jingshen a message asking him what time he was working overtime today.

Until twelve o'clock, Wang Yue, Zhang Xianjing and other people's birthday blessing messages came, instantly occupied his WeChat. Chen Jingshen still did not reply, should still be busy.

Yu Fan got up to put on his jacket and mentioned his suitcase to the foyer just as the call from the appointment driver came in.

He grabbed his suitcase, cell phone clipped to his shoulder, and opened the door, "Wait, I'll be right-"

Seeing the figure outside the door who was just about to raise his hand to knock, Yu Fan's voice abruptly stopped.

"Good le good le." Silent corridor, the sound of the cell phone is particularly obvious, the driver said at the end, "Then I'll wait for you downstairs?"

The phone didn't hang up, there was no response, and the driver finished with a hesitant "hello".

Yu Fan was confused in place for a long time before he came back to his senses, "Don't wait. Sorry, I'm canceling the order."

Hanging up the phone, Yu Fan looked back up at the person in front of him.

Chen Jingshen, with a backpack on one shoulder and a cake in his hand, his shoulders taut and straight, looked dusty. There was no expression on his face, probably because he was standing in a dark place, and when he didn't have an expression, he looked inexplicably dull and gloomy.

Chen Jingshen looked at the fully dressed man in front of him, and then lowered his eyes to the suitcase in his hand.

At one point, he felt that Yu Fan's hand was not holding the luggage lever, but one of his sensitive nerves, which would snap if he was not careful.

It was a long time before he pulled himself to speak. Having fallen asleep on the plane, his voice was a little muffled, "Where are you going."

The man in front of him seemed stunned for a moment, then the hand clutching the lever snapped loose and replied, "Cross-country beatings."

"Beat who?" Chen Jingshen asked.

"You."

"......"

Ningcheng this gusty typhoon has passed, but the downstairs of this neighborhood those were blown down by the wind, horizontal stainless steel notice boards, and the umbrella in the garbage cans were broken by the wind, still let people palpitate.

Chen Jingshen let out a heavy breath, his shoulders sinking as if he had finally landed on his feet in the wee hours of the morning.

"No need to cross, I'm coming on my own." Chen Jingshen said, "Happy birthday, Yu Fan."

-

Chen Jingshen entered the house and took a shower first. In order to rush to Ningcheng on this day, he had been busy in the company for the past two days and was afraid of the smell on his body.

Yu Fan came up to smell his neck and said no. He scratched the back of his hand on his face. He scratched the back of his hand on Yu Fan's face, but still took his clothes and went into the bathroom.

Yu Fan lies on the couch and sends a "thank you" to the people who just wished him well.

[Wang Luan: Birthday present coming soon, wait for it.]

Wang Luan: That's right! What are you doing for your birthday? Do you want to go out?

[-: Not out.]

[Wang Luan: That's fine.]

[-:?

Wang Luan: ...... I mean, hasn't it been windy and rainy in your area lately? Don't run around. Sister Jing says you're as skinny as a chicken, so be careful, don't get blown away by the typhoon.

Yu Fan took a picture of his fist to intimidate Wang Luan, and when he looked at it, he didn't have a fucking clue.

The bathroom door opens and Chen Jingshen comes out wearing a white t-shirt.

Yu Fan glanced at him and was suddenly inspired, "Chen Jingshen, hand it over."

Chen Jingshen pauses in his hair-rubbing motion and spreads his hand out to him. Thinking he's going to hold hands, he gets a hard slap on the palm, and Yu Fan says, "Make a fist."

Sent Chen Jingshen's fist picture over, Wang Luan's end "was typing" for half a day, but finally only left a sentence: [I grass.

Yu Fan threw down her phone, surveyed her arms, and felt that the matter of gaining weight should be put on the agenda much earlier.

The sofa beside him sank, and Chen Jingshen sat down with a fresh smell of shower gel. Yu Fan turned his head to ask something, but after seeing Chen Jingshen's expression, he held back his words.

Chen Jingshen rubbed his hair almost to the ground and reached out to unwrap the cake. The cake was a simple style, palm-sized, reviewed online as tasting good, and surrounded by a circle of small bright red and pink strawberries.

Yu Fan had brought him that cupcake earlier, and after all this time he still remembered what it looked like.

"How did you know my birthday?" The leg was jabbed by the knee of the person next to him.

"I knew about it before and helped organize the information for Visiting Chin." Chen Jingshen said.

"Then why didn't you tell me before you came."

"I don't know if I'll make it in time."

Tickets are more than an hour before takeoff temporarily bought, Chen Jingshen from the company out, even the luggage did not pack again went to the airport, and then go to the pre-ordered to be delivered to the cake to receive, the road to pick up the cell phone a few times, think about it or did not reply.

To put it bluntly, it was meant to be a surprise.

Chen Jingshen rummaged through the bag and realized something was missing. He asked, "Is there a lighter?"

Yu Fan : "If I say yes, are you going to check if I smoke again."

Chen Jingshen : "No, you don't have an ashtray at home."

"......"

Yu Fan got up and went to look for a lighter, he hadn't smoked since he moved here, so it took him a bit longer to find it. When Chen Jingshen returned, he leaned back into the sofa, his eyelids half-lidded, as cold and low as he remembered from certain moments.

Chen Jingshen is actually not very good at hiding his emotions.

Or, perhaps he was originally a person who lacked emotions. No matter what he did or said, he almost always used the same face and the same look, so it was hard for the people around him to tell exactly what state he was in at the moment.

However, Yu Fan felt it was obvious. Chen Jingshen This person, happy, angry, sad ...... he can always somehow sense it immediately.

Seeing Yu Fan return, Chen Jingshen lifted his eyes and got up, intending to take the lighter.

Yu Fan, however, didn't look at him and casually threw his things onto the glass coffee table.

"Tried it, bad. It doesn't work." Yu Fan said.

Chen Jingshen Hmmmed, "I'll get it downstairs."

"Forget it, don't order it, young or not." Yu Fan said lazily, "Just eat it straight."

Chen Jingshen didn t intend to pass so perfunctorily. Just when I wanted to touch my cell phone, my cheeks were slightly cool, and a sweet smell came to my face.

Yu Fan scooped a handful of cream on the cake and rudely and indifferently smeared it on Chen Jingshen's nose and mouth, the lower half of Chen Jingshen's face was instantly filled up with cream, which was a bit funny with his paralyzed face.

The next moment, the couch on his side sank deeply. Yu Fan knelt on one leg to the side of his leg and lowered his head to eat the cream on the right side of his face. The inconspicuous tiger teeth scraped across his face, a little subtle tickle.

Chen Jingshen The knot in his throat slipped and he reached for his waist, letting him sit on his knees.

They pressed together through the material of their clothes, Yu Fan cupped Chen Jingshen's face with both hands, nibbled on his chin, swallowed the cream, and looked at him with coldly downcast eyes, "Chen Jingshen, your expression tonight stinks just as much as it did when we first met. It looks like it's in need of a beating."

Yu Fan paused after saying that and then corrected, "The one in front of the milk tea store."

Chen Jingshen didn't say anything, just wrapped his arm around his waist, raised his hand to clasp the back of his head, and pressed his head down for a kiss. Yu Fan's mouth was filled with the dense, creamy flavor, which was swept away by Chen Jingshen bit by bit, and finally swallowed by who knows who.

"I was wondering if you were just like that when you left in the first place." Chen Jingshen said against his lips.

Yu Fan stiffened almost instantly, his parted lips suddenly immobile.

Chen Jingshen hand into the hem of his shirt, hot against his thin back, feel his stiffness, Chen Jingshen soothingly smooth him.

"No." After a long time, Yu Fan spoke in a muffled voice without any emotion, "At that time, someone came to Yu Kaiming's door to collect a debt, and they left in a hurry, without a suitcase, dragging a sack with them."

"Uh-huh." Chen Jingshen visualized that image in his head and hugged the man tighter, Yu Fan could even feel the tremor in his chest as he spoke.

"Actually, that day at the milk tea store, it wasn't the first time." Chen Jingshen suddenly said without a clue.

"What?" Yu Fan froze for a moment, then responded, "Oh, I know-"

"You cut yourself with a knife. Not the first time."

"......"

Yu Fan was a bit confused. He raised his head and looked at Chen Jingshen in a rare daze, "What does ...... mean?"

"You burned your arm with a cigarette, I saw it." Chen Jingshen said.

Yu Fan opened his mouth, but nothing came out. He wanted to deny it, but Chen Jingshen so provoked, some memory cross in, as if there really is such a thing, but just that one time, in the school toilet. At that time, he had just finished fighting with people from other schools, and the other injuries on his body were much heavier than the cigarette, and after he finished poking, he felt that it was meaningless, and threw the cigarette on the floor and stomped it out and threw it away, and then he forgot all about it.

But someone saw it and always remembered it.

"I felt it then." Chen Jingshen dug his fingers into his hair and gave it a few loose tucks, "It can't go on like that."

So he writes a love letter, weighs the words, tinkers with them, hands them over, and awkwardly and forcefully squeezes his way into Yu Fan's life.

The hand cupping his face suddenly exerted force, the fingers sinking into his skin, and I could feel the slightest bit of shivering.

Yu Fan's nose was sore, but his expression was taut and fierce and cold, he looked down askance and asked, "Chen Jingshen, you pity me."

"No, I love you." Chen Jingshen said.

So when I saw you come out with your suitcase just now, it was like suddenly being yanked back outside that familiar wooden door, suffocation and depression coming over in a dense blanket, so raging that I could hardly catch my breath.

"Yu Fan." Chen Jingshen's voice was low, "Don't go any further."

Yu Fan's eyes burned red and she lowered her head, wanting to kiss him like she had on the rooftop six years ago.

Chen Jingshen grabbed his neck and didn't let him kiss it, "I want you to answer."

Something slammed down and dripped warmly onto his wrist. Yu Fan reddened his eyes and let out a "hmm", then the hand on his neck exerted force, and he was grabbed and kissed.

Chen Jingshen kissed very heavily, and so did Yu Fan. It was the first time he kissed Chen Jingshen so eagerly and fiercely, and he tangled and licked Chen Jingshen's tongue fiercely and nicely. The temperature gradually dropped in the night, and there was no heating in the house, so the two people close to each other exchanged each other's body heat, heartbeats, and saliva with sincerity, and wherever they touched, they were all hot.

Chen Jingshen Lips opened and closed, jawline tensed into a smooth line. His hand sank deep into the hem of his shirt, feeling all over it bit by bit, his other hand picking at the waist of the other man's pants just about to go down, when the person kissing him suddenly stopped, slightly stepping aside by millimeters.

Yu Fan's cheeks, neck, and ears were all red, and his lips and eyes were wet. He pressed his face expressionlessly against the tip of Chen Jingshen's nose and said, "Chen Jingshen, I want to do- with you."

......

At midnight, it was still drizzling in Ningcheng, and had a tendency to get stronger and stronger. The deliveryman walked clumsily in his raincoat to 402 in the Youlin neighborhood and raised his hand to knock on the door, "Hello, your-"

Before he could say anything, the door opened. A smooth, strong arm reached out to take what he was holding, and before he could see anything, the door closed again with a snap.

The delivery man froze for a few seconds, muttered something under his breath, and turned to walk away.

The room was half-lit, with only a dim bedside lamp.

The takeout bag was roughly ripped open, Chen Jingshen's fingers glistened in the light, Yu Fan didn't look at it and kicked him with his foot: "Don't, just ......"

The piece of the small abdomen was suddenly cold, Yu Fan was cooled by the sudden pouring up of something and shivered for a moment, scolding with a red face, "Chen Jingshen, are you looking for--"

Chen Jingshen moved his hand downward, bullying his body and gagging him. Yu Fan initially "whimpered" and cursed with all his might, but in the end all he could do was gasp.

The window lit up with a sheet of lightning, two overlapping figures elongated against the wall, and thunder rumbled.

Yu Fan could not hear anything. At this moment, only Chen Jingshen was left in his world, and Chen Jingshen's breath, smell, and body temperature filled his world little by little. He reached out to grab the bed sheet, but his fingers were pried up and snapped into his hand, and Yu Fan was now completely in Chen Jingshen's hands.

Chen Jingshen lowered his eyes to Yu Fan, comparing with his gaze, Yu Fan's waist was so narrow that it looked like he could finish holding it with one hand.

Yu Fan a sweat, when breathing the abdomen violently rise and fall, the whole person like being dragged, I do not know how long, Chen Jingshen only grabbed the pillow, pad to his waist.

Yu Fan had always felt that although he was thin, he was very strong. This view used to be shared by the bad students among the South City and the few debt collectors.

But he found it more exhausting than fighting.

Not that it's a lot of work, it's just ......

Yu Fan sat uneasily, her toes bounding up, her whole body trembling uncontrollably. Exhausted, Yu Fan lay down on Chen Jingshen's sweaty shoulder and bit the side of his neck as hard and salty as before.

The numbness of the scalp just slowed down a little bit, and was pressed to the pillow, the waist is Chen Jingshen dripping sweat.

Being made to stifle a little noise, he flushed red and intended to bury himself into the pillow to smother himself, but Chen Jingshen grabbed his hair and forced him to look up.

Yu Fan collapsed and cursed in broken, incoherent sentences. Called him a dog, called him a pervert, finally turned into a suppressed and unbearable end, was Chen Jingshen forced to turn his head, in the confusion of the heat of the tide to get a loving and delicate kiss.

-

The rain in Ningcheng didn't stop until four in the morning. In the end, Yu Fan was almost carried down to clean up and take a shower, and when he returned to bed, he couldn't care less about fighting with Chen Jingshen, and fell into a deep sleep with his head tilted.

Early in the morning, Yu Fan wakes up to the sound of knocking on the door and the ambiguous smell.

Just when Yu Fan thought he was mistaken, there was another strong knock on the door.

Consciousness gradually returning, Yu Fan moved his fingers, then was spurred back to close his eyes by a dense, aching softness in his belly.

Chen Jingshen was sitting at the head of the bed, hammering on the code, the sound of the keyboard was clear and nice, somewhat hypnotizing. Yu Fan raised his eyelids with difficulty, and the complex interface immediately made him dizzy.

Sensing movement, Chen Jingshen inclined his head to look at him, a faintly insatiable look in his eyes, and slipped his hand into the crook of his neck to ascertain his body temperature.

I thought Chen Jingshen had ordered some kind of supermarket purchase. Yu Fan stretched his foot to kick the person next to him, imagined it was very vigorous, but actually just scraped the person with his toes, and when he opened his mouth his voice was like a broken gong: "...... Get lost and open the door."

Chen Jingshen hmmm, picked up a bottle of mineral water and put it on his bedside, turned to go downstairs.

There was a cake on the coffee table that I hadn't bothered to put in the refrigerator last night. Thinking about her shameful behavior of smearing cream on others, Chen Jingshen curled her fingers, threw the cake into the trash, thought about making up for it today, and absentmindedly twisted the door handle.

The door had just opened a crack when there was a loud bang!

Small ceremonial flowers exploded in the air! Countless colorful ribbons and sequins spilled down, causing Chen Jingshen to squint, and then he heard a familiar voice---

"Surprise!!!" Wang Luan's voice resonates throughout the entire floor, and with a joyful face and a big hand, he commands those around him, "Come on! One, two, three, go!!!"

Outside the door, Zuo Kuan, Zhang Xianjing and Wang Luan sang in unison and with great enthusiasm: "Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to you!!!"
