Ye Yao said goodnight to Lu Xun as if he hadn’t noticed anything, turned off the lights, and closed his eyes calmly. After an unknown amount of time, he heard a very slight sound of someone carefully getting out of bed.
Ye Yao opened his eyes into a tiny crack, and under the soft and dim night light, he saw Lu Xun’s back retreating in a hurry.
Lu Xun’s walking posture was not as chic and natural as it usually was, obviously he could no longer endure it.
It was just an innocent kiss on the face, and there was such a reaction.
Ye Yao couldn’t resist, the corner of his mouth curled up into a smile, and buried his face on the pillow.
He knew that Lu Xun’s behavior was not due to Lu Xun’s poor psychological endurance, and probably not even because of shyness. Lu Xun just… liked him too much.
The impulses of an adolescent were always out of control.
Just as he liked Lu Xun, Lu Xun liked him without realizing it, and had always responded to him.
***
Half an hour later, Lu Xun emerged from the bathroom.
He had always tried his best to avoid all kinds of disrespectful thoughts about Ye Yao, but now a certain kind of thought was about to break out of his control and overcome his suppression.
He was not interested in that sort of thing at all, but now he had already made several exceptions because of Ye Yao in just a few days.
Ye Yao lay quietly on the other side of the bed, while Lu Xun took a deep breath slowly and carefully laid back down on the bed.
He slowly approached the sleeping Ye Yao, and tentatively placed one hand on Ye Yao’s body. Seeing that Ye Yao had no reaction, he took him into his arms.
There was another warmth in his arms, which was a reassuring warmth.
The scent of Ye Yao’s body at such a close proximity was like an impenetrable net, wrapping Lu Xun heavily and pulling him into an inescapable dream.
Lu Xun dreamed of Ye Yao in his sleep.
They were in Ye Yao’s room working on their school paper. It was a chemistry test paper, with symbols of various chemical elements that could make people dizzy. Lu Xun finished answering the test paper and handed it to Ye Yao for correction.
“Overall it’s very good, you’ve made great progress.” When talking to him, Ye Yao always has a gentle look in his eyes. “Last time you said that you wanted encouragement for your progress, what encouragement do you want? I’ll buy it for you.”
“You don’t need to spend money on it.” Lu Xun propped his face with one hand, turned his body to face Ye Yao, and showed a smirk.
“No need to spend money?” Ye Yao’s face was still very young, he asked in a puzzled manner, “Then what do you want?”
Lu Xun felt thirsty. He approached Ye Yao and said in a hoarse voice, “If I get a question right…..I can have a kiss. Class President Ye is a man of his word, he will not go back on his promise, right?”
Ye Yao’s fair cheeks were tinged with pink as he looked at Lu Xun, pursed his lips in embarrassment, and then nodded.
So Lu Xun eagerly moved closer and kissed that piece of sweetness.
Not enough, he wanted more.
The chair in which he was sitting turned into a soft big bed, Ye Yao’s face flushed even more, and his blue and white school uniform changed into soft and loose loungewear.
Ye Yao collapsed, unable to support himself. His normally sensible, black and white eyes now look like they were filled with spring water.

Lu Xun’s senses slowly recovered from that exciting dream.
Then there was no need to think about what the dream was, it could only be a dream that all men would dream— the Dream Sutra
In the dream, it was him and Ye Yao.
He had never dreamed of anyone else, even when puberty hit, he had never had any ‘spring dreams’ throughout, except when he had to change his pants when he got up in the morning.
For the first time, he dreamed of somebody, and it was his friend he knew best.
He hated seeing all kinds of unnatural contact between men, but at that time in the dream, there was no half-heartedness or even distaste, only happiness.
Thinking back to that dream now, the emotions that welled up from his chest were all warmth.
Lu Xun slowly let go of Ye Yao, tried his best to get out of bed as quietly as possible and went to the closet to grab a clean pair of pants.
Lu Xun cleaned himself up and threw a handful of cold water on his face to calm himself down and clear his head.
The cold drops of water dripped away the heat from his face, but could not take away the heat in his heart.
That was the sweetest and the most beautiful dream he ever had.
….he wanted the beautiful dream to become a reality.
Lu Xun was not stupid enough to think that this was the behavior of friends. Friends could hold hands, friends could hug and help each other, but wanting to kiss and having sex was not something that in any way could be associated with straight men.
He just wanted to have a more intimate interaction with Ye Yao.
This only meant one thing….
He was bent.
His world view was shattered by the impact, and the new world revealed to him did not make him feel pain, but a million times joy.
If he and Ye Yao got together, wouldn’t that make him the most important person, a presence that all Ye Yao’s other friends could not compare?
In this way, this would completely separate him from the man who couldn’t control his lower half body in Ye Yao’s heart.
So what if that damned thirty-something year-old man had spent so many years with Ye Yao and has memories that he didn’t have? From now on, Ye Yao would only remember the sweet love they would have for each other until it overwrote all friendship that Ye Yao had with that man!
Enthusiasm and joy filled his entire chest, Lu Xun wiped his face clean and was about to majestically walk back to the bedroom with arrogance, when he suddenly remembered something, as if he had been splashed with a basin of cold water.
….Wait… Ye Yao was not bent yet, Ye Yao was still straight as a steel.
***
Ye Yao had to take Lu Xun to the hospital for a check-up today, so after breakfast, he and Lu Xun went to the wardrobe to change clothes.
It was not a formal occasion, so it was fine to just dress casually and relaxed. Ye Yao was wearing a white shirt and was about to get a casual suit jacket, when a hand reached out from behind his ear and gently pushed him against the wall in front of the wardrobe.
Ye Yao: “…..”
Ye Yao turned around slowly and came face to face with Lu Xun, and was astounded at the sight.
Lu Xun was wearing a tailored casual suit, which enhanced his broad shoulders and long legs.
Lu Xun’s hair was not in its natural downward state, but had been artificially scrunched up a bit, which accentuated his handsomeness.
Even though Lu Xun was so well-dressed and had a very strong aura, there was still some hidden nervousness in his eyes.
“I’m really not used to this kind of clothes, I think they look awkward on me. What do you think?” Lu Xun said in a deep voice.
A smile flashed across Ye Yao’s eyes.
The fondness in Lu Xun’s eyes was too obvious, as expected, he couldn’t hide his liking, and now Lu Xun wanted to treat him with his best form and appearance.
Lu Xun found himself bending much faster than he thought he would.
“Brother Lu is so handsome,” Ye Yao praised him without hesitation, “He is the most handsome man I have ever seen.”
Lu Xun’s eyes lit up for a moment, but before he could get carried away, Ye Yao patted Lu Xun on the shoulder and continued to compliment him, “You are indeed my best buddy.”
Lu Xun: “…..”
He didn’t want to be the best buddy, he was going to be the one Ye Yao would love!
No, no one else could be either!
Why did that word sound so harsh? There must be something psychologically wrong with him before, wasn’t there, how could he desperately tell Ye Yao that they were only best friends?
Ye Yao was so straight, he wouldn’t think too much about such a passionate scene!
He judged that his gay radar was quite advanced, and he would definitely not be wrong. Ye Yao was a straight man.
The idea of the two of them being actually bent, the distance was wider than the Milky Way between Cowherd and Weaver Girl!
Ye Yao nearly burst out laughing, and quickly turned around to get his clothes to hide his expression, feeling that he was really bad.
If nothing else, Lu Xun should be well in no time, and whatever response he makes in the meantime would not aggravate Lu Xun too much. But when Lu Xun’s memory returns, his waist and back will probably be sore for a few days.
Let him tease Lu Xun a little more during these few days of vacation, to add to the memories of their future life.
Ye Yao took Lu Xun to the hospital and met Lu Xun’s attending doctor.
After another x-ray examination, Ye Yao saw the doctor alone.
“Everything is going well. The hemorrhage in President Lu’s brain is dissipating at about the same speed as previously estimated. If there is no major stimulation, he will be able to regain his memory in about a week or so. Everything else is normal.” The doctor explained.
Ye Yao was relieved, and took Lu Xun back to the villa.
On the way home, Lu Xun tried again, “That movie I saw with you last night, now that I think back on it, it doesn’t feel right, do you think?”
“Is that so? Not really.” Ye Yao chuckled, “That movie portrayed the deep and strong friendship between two men. You’re probably not just used to it because it’s a foreign movie.”
Lu Xun: “…..”
It was so basic, but Ye Yao actually thought it was pure friendship when the people in the movie were obviously quite gay!
What should he do to elevate Ye Yao’s friendship with him a bit?
It was all because he used to be a stupid straight man! Why couldn’t he tell Ye Yao ‘Hello, I’m gay’, when he first introduced himself to Ye Yao?
Lu Xun learned from the pain and thought hard about it, but just after returning home, Ye Yao received a call from work.
There was an unexpected incident over there, and without Ye Yao, the whole department was in a mess.
Ye Yao frowned. He had taken his annual leave just to accompany Lu Xun, but he didn’t expect such an urgent matter would crop up.
Lu Xun didn’t miss any opportunity, and immediately expressed his tenderness, understanding and consideration.
“I am already fine. We had been to the hospital for an examination and all the tests were fine. What’s the point of staying with me?” Lu Xun held Ye Yao’s hand with a smile, ignoring the thought that flashed through his mind of letting Ye Yao quit his job and stay with him everyday, becoming his precious baby, without being seen by anyone else.
He couldn’t make that mistake. He wanted to compare himself with everyone fiercely, and be the one that Ye Yao liked the most and be the most unique person in his heart.
“Anyway, we will be staying together every time we are free, don’t you think?” Lu Xun asked softly.
After Lu Xun’s kind words of persuasion, Ye Yao was convinced.
Before he left, Ye Yao was still worried, “You must call me if you need anything, and if you feel uncomfortable or sick, okay?”
Lu Xun responded in affirmative and watched Ye Yao out the door.
The door closed, and in the first moment of separation, the feeling of missing the other person flooded up like a tidal wave.
He needed to go to the place where Ye Yao’s aura was strongest, and let Ye Yao’s aura envelop him.
The first choice for this place, of course, was the bedroom.
Lu Xun strode back to the room, quickly changed into his house clothes, and laid down on the side of the bed where Ye Yao usually slept.
The scent of Ye Yao covering the quilt, the scent of Ye Yao sleeping on the pillow, and the scent of Ye Yao on his pajamas he had worn all night, smelled so good….
Lu Xun buried his nose in Ye Yao’s pajamas and breathed in the scent, when his nose was hit by an object.
He frowned and reached in to fumble, and found a key in the pocket of Ye Yao’s pajamas.
Lu Xun was confused.
How come this key seemed.. to be carried by Ye Yao so close to his body?

Oh n o we pray for poor ye yao’s back when lu xun opens that drawer
Lu Xun is so stupid, what is his thought process? 😭🤣
some stuffs 🤭🤭
Ehehe time to discover that wedding ring uwu
He’s definitely not so worried about being bent anymore. Still, I wonder if it would have been easier then and now, if he understood the other options besides gay and straight? Since he was never attracted to women or men, just Ye Yao. Demisexual, I guess? Maybe they both are, even.
My oh my… im looking forward to the plots his brainholes come up with when he sees the contents locked away
Haha, their roles are reversed now 😂😂😂
❤️❤️❤️
