Even though he had been with Lu Xun for so many years, Ye Yao didn’t expect Lu Xun to think this way, so he couldn’t help being stunned for a moment.
This topic once opened will not easily end, and the difference in treatment could drive people crazy, not to mention the differential treatment made by the most important person in the hearts.
“In high school, when your family was having a hard time, I said I would put my pocket money with you, and both of us could use it together, but you didn’t want to.” Lu Xun said in a tight voice, “Now that the living conditions are better, neither of us is short of money, so you are willing.”
Ye Yao had a bit of a headache.
He would not take money from a friend, but right now he and Lu Xun were not friends anymore.
They had been married for many years, and all their assets were joint property, not individual or personal assets. Lu Xun wanted to put all the money in Ye Yao’s hands and didn’t keep any money for himself, that could only be regarded as a kind of fun.
Moreover, Lu Xun’s view of separating his eighteen-year-old self from his thirty-something self was also something that an average person was unlikely to have.
Ye Yao softened his voice, and tried to reason with Lu Xun to calm him down: “You are the same person, I accepted him, is it not the same as accepting you? We only knew each other for a year or two when we were in high school, and now we have known each other for more than ten years. Of course our relationship will get better and better, won’t it?”
“Oh,” Lu Xun sneered, “I thought our relationship was good enough, but it could be better.”
The forced smile hanging on the corner of his lips gradually disappeared: “It’s true that I am not as good as the thirty-year-old me, but that’s also normal.”
His words sounded very casual, but the jealousy on Lu Xun’s face had not disappeared at all, but rather because of Ye Yao’s answer, he had become even more furious and jealous.
After this jealousy, there was an unconcealed sense of loss and sadness.
Ye Yao looked at the face of Lu Xun who was with him day and night, seeing the loss on that face, he suddenly understood what Lu Xun was thinking.
Lu Xun now had no memories of the past ten years, and it was perhaps because of this lack of memory, Lu Xun did not understand the development of their relationship. For Lu Xun, it was the memories of the past ten years that he had with another man that was causing Lu Xun to feel alienated from himself.
“It’s not what you say it is.” Ye Yao frowned.
Getting along day and night when they were young was the cornerstone of their relationship, and it was also because Lu Xun was good enough at that time that he had never thought he would fall for a boy before he fell for a man later in life.
Ye Yao turned serious: “Don’t ever say that again, you are no better than who you were at thirty, no matter what period you are, you are uniquely the best to me, do you understand?”
This tone of voice was not so much as coaxing, but a bit stern, but Lu Xun looked at Ye Yao, and his face gradually changed from cloudy to sunny.
It was okay to be on equal footing now with his thirty-year old self, he would always stand out later.
Lu Xun began to make demands: “Then you have to get the same treatment, and you have to charge me money in the future.”
“En, okay.” Ye Yao said.
The corners of Lu Xun’s mouth raised again, full of fighting spirit, “What else did you do with the thirty-year-old me, I will do it all again, without fail.”
Ye Yao: “…”
This was not necessary. Really do it all over again? His waist was going to suffer heavily.
Not to mention what could he do with the thirty-something Lu Xun, two grown men, of course it was something they always love to do—making love, was this kind of thing that a high school student could pry into?
If the Lu Xun with normal memory was here, hearing what he said just now, he would probably have gone beastly on the spot, instead of sitting on the sofa holding his hand and simply chatting like this.

After finishing some urgent work, Ye Yao came to the media room with Lu Xun.
They could watch the latest movie released, but Ye Yao chose not to do so, he chose a movie that was released a few years ago.
This was a foreign film about two male friends who strove together to get a better life.
In this movie, the two male protagonists relied on each other for encouragement, held hands and hugged each other, and kissed each other good night before going to bed according to the habits of foreigners.
When Lu Xun was watching it, he couldn’t help saying to Ye Yao, that the affection in the eyes of the two male protagonists was almost overflowing and who could believe that they were only playing as friends.
Director Lu’s self-evaluation: “Only Lu Xun, an idiot in high school and freshman year, can believe it.”
Ye Yao thought that it was a pity that the older Lu Xun was not here to see this scene.
The media room had soft and wide sofas, not only big enough for the two of them to sit on, but also convenient for them to watch and roll together.
The amnesiac Lu Xun knew nothing about this and sat down on the sofa normally, giving Ye Yao a lot of space.
But Ye Yao did not sit down as he had expected.
Ye Yao stood in front of him with his back to the light of the screen, the light outlined his slender figure, as if it had gilded him with a layer of silver.
Ye Yao bent down slightly to be closer to Lu Xun as he wanted to say something.
But he was wearing house clothes, and when he bent down like this, Lu Xun straightened up on the spot.
Lu Xun struggled to control his eyes from moving elsewhere and moved his eyes upwards to meet Ye Yao’s eyes.
“What’s wrong?” Lu Xun asked in a muffled voice.
“Since you said you are going to do all the things you and I did at thirty, then I will ask you now,” Ye Yao said, “where would you like me to sit?”
Was there actually an option for this?
Here again were developments and stories that he didn’t know, Lu Xun stared and listened attentively to what Ye Yao had to say next.
“Sit next to you…” Ye Yao twitched his lips, “or sit on your lap?”
How could there be such an option?
Lu Xun couldn’t help being shocked and said, “He will tell you to sit on his lap?”
Ye Yao’s expression was natural, “We are best friends after all, what’s wrong with sitting on our laps, anyway, we are all straight men. You even let me sit face to face, saying that it is convenient to chat and talk.”
When Lu Xun considered himself a straight man in college, he had invited Ye Yao to sit like this several times. The theory that good friends could sit on the laps was well accepted by Lu Xun at University.
Lu Xun was still in the holding hands and hugging stage, missing the nearly two years of mind shift between his senior and sophomore years, and when he heard this sentence, a thought flashed through his mind — what kind of straight guy would have another guy sit face to face on his lap?
If any man had told him that two years earlier, he could have beaten the man up so badly that even his mother would not recognize him.
But before the nausea set in, the image of sitting face to face with Ye Yao came to Lu Xun’s mind.
His heart blossomed in full and burst in an instant.
They had such a good relationship, what’s wrong with sitting on laps? Ye Yao could lie on his body if he wanted to.
Another thought popped up in Lu Xun’s mind, and his face darkened again.
Ye Yao had already sat on his lap earlier when he was thirty years old.
There was no telling how many times he had sat there.
Lu Xun didn’t say any more, and patted his leg. The person he valued the most chuckled and landed lightly on the spot he designated.
The fragrance special to Ye Yao alone, was suddenly close to him, lingering at the tip of his nose.
Lu Xun’s Adam’s apple twitched, and Ye Yao, who was in his arms, stretched out an arm and wrapped it around his neck.
Ye Yao leaned close to Lu Xun’s ear: “Then let’s watch the movie like this, and if you are not comfortable with this, remember to tell me.”
***
Lu Xun didn’t even remember what was playing on the screen at all, at least 90% of his attention was focused on Ye Yao.
Ye Yao was so close to him, that his breathing was clearly audible, and the hot breath exhaled brushed against his ears from time to time.
The pair of best friends in the movie were lying down, resting on the bed, and the blonde foreigner kissed his friend, giving an affectionate good night kiss and blessing, “Good night, my dearest friend, have a sweet dream.”
Lu Xun’s Adam’s apple bobbed again.
If Ye Yao learned foreign manners, he would also give him such good night kisses every night…
Lu Xun turned his head sideways as subtly as possible, looking at the straight nose and well-shaped lips of the person in his arms.
Ye Yao’s lips were soft, very soft, as he had experienced it himself.
The lips on the outside were soft, but the inside was hot, making people want to explore.
Lu Xun’s eyes became a little darker as he returned his gaze back to the screen, his lips pursed slightly.
Ye Yao pretended not to notice anything, he felt the tension in Lu Xun’s body and rested his head on Lu Xun’s shoulder.
At the end of the movie, Ye Yao asked his straight friend Lu Xun, “What do you think of this movie? They are such good friends, I think they are somewhat similar to us.”
Straight man Lu Xun had a twinkle in his eyes as he replied, “There is a difference, they give each other a good night kiss every time before going to bed but we don’t.”
“Oh?” Ye Yao slightly raised his eyebrows.
He didn’t expect Lu Xun to progress so quickly, and he has already learned to set him up. Sure enough, the nature of being “coquettish” and love taking advantage of him in a certain aspect was deeply ingrained in his bones.
“Well then, let’s learn some foreign manners tonight.” Under Lu Xun’s brightening gaze, Ye Yao said with a smile.
***
In the midst of Lu Xun’s eager anticipation, night fell.
Before going to bed was the usual chatting session, going back and forth, with no in-depth purpose, just to have a good time.
The dim yellow bedside lamp illuminated Ye Yao’s face. Lu Xun was lying on the bed, his hands under the quilt clenched into fists, and on the surface he was chatting as calmly as possible.
According to their conversation earlier, Ye Yao was going to kiss him.
Kiss him on his own accord while awake and sober.
The scent of Ye Yao’s shower gel came over, the warmth and softness of his lips, the tingling when his forehead hair brushed against his cheeks, all these things have already been rehearsed uncontrollably in Lu Xun’s mind over and over again, even though nothing had happened yet.
His blood boiled uncontrollably, and his heart beat faster than ever. It wasn’t just the blood and heartbeat that he couldn’t control.
Lu Xun bent the leg that was close to Ye Yao, making the quilt provide a cover to his body.
The small talk between the two of them came to an end when Ye Yao covered his mouth with his hand and yawned.
“It’s time to get ready to rest too.” Ye Yao said, “Shall I turn off the lights?”
Lu Xun immediately stopped it in a stifled voice, “Wait, aren’t you forgetting something?”
Of course Ye Yao didn’t forget, and with a small smile, he reached out his hand and touched Lu Xun’s face first.
Before Lu Xun could say anything, the warm palm receded and was replaced by something else, an even more softer touch.
The fragrance was soothing, and the softness was easy to touch.
Lu Xun heard Ye Yao’s voice with a laugh.
“Good night, my dearest friend.”
His blood flowed in one direction, and the fantasy became reality. Lu Xun tried to control it, but his mind went blank the moment Ye Yao kissed him and he completely lost control.

What the author has to say.
Ye Yao: A kiss that made an eighteen year old straight man break his guard for me.

Thank You for the new chapter ♡(ŐωŐ人)
In the high school of our small rural town, a bunch of the boys started hugging, jumping on each other’s backs or into their arms (and being caught), and crooning, “I love yooooo” across the cafeteria to each other a few years before the quarantine 😂. If there were homophobic straight guys, they kept it to themselves lol.
Once he’s fully recovered, he’s gonna be jealous with his 18 year old self 😅 gawd lu xun
❤️❤️❤️
