“You…” Ye Yao felt that everything was as unreal as a dream. He stretched out his hand to pinch Lu Xun’s face and saw Lu Xun grinning before he could believe it was all true, “Why are you here?”
“Why ask, of course, because I missed you and flew here on purpose.” Lu Xun let go of the person and said proudly, “I deliberately rushed for the six o’clock flight this morning.”
To catch a flight at 6 o’clock in the morning means getting up earlier, Lu Xun was inevitably a little tired, but this tiredness was not worth mentioning compared to the joy of seeing Ye Yao earlier.
Seeing Ye Yao really standing in front of him now, Lu Xun’s heart that felt empty since their moment of separation, was filled again. He held Ye Yao’s hand and asked again, “Did you miss me?”
“…En.” Ye Yao replied softly.
The smile on Lu Xun’s face couldn’t be suppressed. He hadn’t seen the other for so long. He really wanted to hug Ye Yao and not let go, or later, the two of them could just hug each other on the bed and talk. Or don’t lie down, he would sit on a chair, Ye Yao would sit on his lap, the two of them would talk and communicate face-to-face, he felt very happy and his heart was warm just thinking about it.
Lu Xun only dared to think about it for now, he put his arms around Ye Yao’s shoulder all the way to buy vinegar, and then followed Ye Yao home.
Lu Xun pressed the floor number on the elevator where Ye Yao’s house was located, and then pressed the doorbell of Ye Yao’s house, all his movements were very natural, as if it was his own house– very skilled.
When Ye Yao’s parents opened the door, Lu Xun turned into a sensible and sweet junior. He smiled wide-eyed at the two elders who were very welcoming, and then took out the prepared specialties from his backpack and handed them over.
It was not something that was so precious that people would not dare to accept it, but at the same time it could also be seen that he had chosen his gifts for Ye Yao’s parents very meticulously.
“You child, come here, what gift do you bring?” Ye Yao’s mother took the things with a smile, and while pushing Ye Yao’s father to go to the kitchen with her to prepare food, she said to Ye Yao, “Yaoyao, You take Xiao Lu to sit first, eat some snacks to pad your stomach, and mom will call you when it’s time to eat.”
Ye Yao poured a glass of water for Lu Xun and asked him, “Do you want to watch TV?”
“What nonsense, I don’t want to watch TV.” Lu Xun couldn’t wait to take Ye Yao to the bedroom. The two went in, the door closed, Lu Xun finally got his wish and hugged him.
The bridge of the tall nose pressed against Ye Yao’s snow-white neck, smelling the scent that belonged to Ye Yao alone, Lu Xun said with satisfaction, “I came to see you.”
Ye Yao didn’t let Lu Xun hug him for a long time, he stretched out his hand and pushed the person away: “Sticky person.”
His eyes swept across the backpack on Lu Xun’s shoulder, and he asked tentatively, “You didn’t bring any luggage, are you leaving in two days?”
Lu Xun didn’t bring any suitcase. He only had a backpack where he took out the special products he had brought before. It was quite obvious that there were not many clothes in it at all.
“No, don’t I have clothes here? I don’t need to bring so many.” Lu Xun, who was criticized for being clingy, reluctantly let go and looked around the room.
It didn’t matter when he didn’t look at the room, however, Lu Xun was taken aback when he finally looked around the familiar yet unfamiliar room.
Where is his group photo, his books, his model robot, and the little pillow doll he had made for Ye Yao by himself?

The room was still quite clean and tidy, but everything here seemed to have nothing to do with him.

Ye Yao sat down on the chair. Contrary to Lu Xun, there were no obvious emotional fluctuations on his face, and he looked very calm.
“It’s been packed away.” Ye Yao said, “Who knew you would come over again?”
“Why won’t I come over, of course I will still come!” Lu Xun anxiously looked for the things that Ye Yao put away, his intuition came into play at this time, staring at the top most shelf.
He jumped up, saw his clothes that had been kept, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it was not thrown away by Ye Yao, so the other things should also have just been put away.
Lu Xun stretched out his hand to take the pile of his clothes that had been folded and placed them one by one with Ye Yao’s. After finishing this, he finally felt more comfortable.
Lu Xun asked again, “What about the others?”
Ye Yao raised his thin eyelids and looked at Lu Xun, and asked indifferently, “What else?”
“My other things.” Lu Xun frowned.
“You won’t need them anyway. I put them away. Why, do you want to take them home?” Ye Yao said, “I’ll mail them back to you then.”
These conversations seemed to be fine, but Lu Xun felt uneasy.
How could his things and Ye Yao’s things be so clearly separated, their things should be together, how could Ye Yao’s things belong to Ye Yao, and his things belong to him alone?
Lu Xun was not someone who would vent at Ye Yao whenever he was unhappy, he pulled another chair in the bedroom to Ye Yao’s side, sat side by side with Ye Yao and took Ye Yao’s hand, and asked in a low voice, “Did my coming here without permission make you unhappy?”
Ye Yao didn’t speak, he looked down at his hand that was being clasped by Lu Xun on his lap, and unconsciously clenched his other hand into a fist.
Lu Xun would be like this when he was nervous, especially every time he felt that he had made him unhappy.
Young Master Lu seldom cared about anything, let alone get nervous, but as long as the matter was related to him, Lu Xun’s mood swings were obvious.
“No, of course not.” Ye Yao finally sighed softly. He looked at Lu Xun and smiled, “I’m very happy that you’re here.”
Ye Yao’s mother called them to eat, Ye Yao stood up and patted Lu Xun’s shoulder: “We are best friends, of course I’m very happy, don’t think too much. Let’s go out to eat. I specially prepared your favorite pork and corn stuffed dumplings, you can rest after eating, or you can also go out for a walk with me.”
*****
After lunch, Lu Xun didn’t choose to rest, as he had already rested as soon as he had arrived. If he sleep, wouldn’t the time to see Ye Yao be reduced by several hours? Of course it was better to go out and play together.
This small city was usually populated by foreigners. However, it was very quiet when the Spring Festival arrived, and there were no major entertainment facilities.
Lu Xun and Ye Yao walked side by side, chatting as they meandered through the streets , and finally reached the high school they had attended together.
The school gate was open, Lu Xun looked up at the school gate which had nothing hanging on it, and said in a dissatisfied manner, “How come the banner that warmly celebrated Ye Yao’s becoming the top student in the college entrance examination has been taken down, the school leaders are really ignorant, who would want to come to study here without this signboard?”
“It should have been already quite battered by the heat and wind, almost enough to be blown away,” Ye Yao was speechless, “Who would hang a banner for a few years?”
“If this school was opened by me, I would engrave this incident on the school gate, and they wouldn’t be able to take it out.” Lu Xun said solemnly.
Ye Yao: “…”
Lu Xun looked away from the school gate and looked at the small shops near the school.
Due to the absence of students during the winter vacation and the Spring Festival, none of these shops were open.
“The milk tea shop where you worked before is closed,” Lu Xun said.
“It’s definitely not open during the winter vacation,” Ye Yao was not surprised, “Otherwise the water, electricity and material costs would be another expense.”
Lu Xun looked at the storefront of the milk tea shop, recalling the beginning, his eyes felt a little sour, and he slowly and quietly held Ye Yao’s hand.
At that time, Ye Yao’s family was sick and the whole family was in financial difficulties. In addition to high-intensity studies, Ye Yao also needed to go out to work to subsidize the family.
The heavy pressure did not make Ye Yao cynical, and he still maintained his helping nature. Whether it was helping him at the beginning or helping him in his studies later, many of these times were all recorded by him one by one in his heart.
Creatures of the dark were attracted to light, and he was no exception.
If it wasn’t for Ye Yao, he would definitely not be the current Lu Xun.
The kind of person he was before, how could he, a rebellious son, could be so fortunate to have such a friend?
He secretly swore in high school that he would be with Ye Yao for the rest of his life. Even today, this idea had not weakened, but had become stronger and stronger.
I want to open my eyes to see Ye Yao, and close my eyes to see Ye Yao, if one day I can’t see him, it must be the beginning of a nightmare.
*****
Ye Yao didn’t have so many nostalgic feelings seeing the places of their past. He didn’t bring Lu Xun out to recall the past, or even just to play with Lu Xun. He had his own purpose.
“It’s not a good idea to not be with your family during the Chinese New Year. When are you going to go back?” Ye Yao asked.
“It depends on your mood.” Lu Xun said, but his next sentence was, “I don’t plan to go back alone, I plan to take you back with me. Didn’t you say that you haven’t seen the snow in the Spring Festival, let’s watch it together.”
Ye Yao smiled vaguely: “What if I don’t want to go to your house?”
Lu Xun replied without hesitation, “Then I won’t go back home, I will be at your home with you all the time.”
“Oh.” Ye Yao pulled back his hand and stuffed it into his pocket with a smile on his face,
“You have already made up your mind to follow me this winter vacation, right?”
“Of course, the last few days of the winter vacation is your birthday. I will definitely spend it with you, and then we will go back to school together.” Lu Xun said.
Ye Yao had forgotten about this. He turned on his phone and looked at the calendar, and found that it was indeed true.
When he discovered this, Ye Yao knew that he couldn’t drive Lu Xun away again. Unless his face was torn off, Lu Xun would definitely follow him.
Moreover, during the winter vacation, everyone was relaxing, and it would be inconvenient to make up various excuses to stay away like during school time.
Unfortunately, they still came to this point.
Ye Yao made a decision in his heart, and his heart suddenly relaxed. He relaxed his eyebrows and smiled widely at Lu Xun: “Okay, let’s be together this holiday then.”
Ye Yao was already good-looking. So when he smiled with red lips and white teeth, he would usually end up stunning countless people and making them think how tender and young he looked.
Lu Xun was stunned for a moment, looked away erratically, and then put his hand on Ye Yao’s shoulder again.
Ye Yao made a silent plan in his heart, taking the winter vacation as the limit of them sticking together. He decided to alienate from Lu Xun after school started.
During the period before the start of school… he wanted to be selfish since he decided to stay away afterwards. Of course, he also wanted to leave a memory at the end.
Since Lu Xun did everything possible to get closer to him, why not take advantage of it?
In this last month, he would not suppress himself.
After making his decision, his thoughts became a lot clearer. He didn’t need to worry too much about revealing stuff. There were so many straight men. As long as he was brave enough, he could still get through like a straight man, right?
