Xie Lin closed the door, came to the living room with Yu Fei, and sat face to face, while both of them were silent for a long time.
Yu Fei looked uneasy, she held the milk cup in her hand and turned around unconsciously, until the warm milk became cold, then she forced a smile at Xie Lin and said, “I must have seen it wrong just now, I thought you guys …”
“I like him.”
Xie Lin opened his mouth, and the atmosphere froze in an instant.
Although she had a hunch, Yu Fei still couldn’t believe it, and almost spilled the milk in her glass. She put the cup on the table, her hands and voice unsteady: “But you, you and Yuanyuan are both men…”
“I know.” Xie Lin said.
Yu Fei bit her lips: “You are already together?”
Xie Lin shook his head: “I will not confess my love to him.”
“…” Yu Fei was speechless.
In the past, she was very envious of Xie Lin, because he and Fu Yuanzhou were both boys, and they could play together. She was younger and a girl. Although they also took her with them, Fu Yuanzhou was still closer to her cousin after all.
At that time, she thought that it would be great if she was a boy, and she would try her best to make Fu Yuanzhou like her more, but if the gender changed, she probably wouldn’t like Fu Yuanzhou anymore, she would just regard Fu Yuanzhou as a good friend.
But her cousin, as Fu Yuanzhou’s same-sex friend, also fell in love with him.
The one who was attracted to him and wanted to kiss him was not only a childhood sweetheart or a good friend, but also someone she admired.
Yu Fei’s palms were covered with sweat, she was very nervous.
Undoubtedly, she was worried about Xie Lin and felt sorry for him, after all he was her cousin. She knew that Xie Lin’s family education was very strict and traditional, and his parents would never accept him liking a man. If the trouble got to the point of irreversibility, it would even be possible for them to sever their relationship.
At the same time, she was also very disturbed. She didn’t know what Fu Yuanzhou was thinking. She had liked Fu Yuanzhou since a long time ago, and she was very confident in her appearance, and believed that her qualifications would not lose to any girl.
But Fu Yuanzhou was indifferent to her appearance. He treated everyone equally and would not be biased because of any external reasons. She liked this quality of his, but it occasionally annoyed her. In this way, her advantage was much less. Fortunately, Fu Yuanzhou didn’t have a close girl, and she was already the one he had the best relationship with.
She was not an innocent and good girl. She had some considerations in her heart and had her own way. She thought that she could still make Fu Yuanzhou like her.
Fortunately, her cousin was a man… She realized that she was actually lucky.
Fu Yuanzhou said that he didn’t like men, and his cousin’s family wouldn’t accept him being with a man, so they couldn’t be together. But what if there were no such external reasons? Could she still compete with her cousin?
Yu Fei didn’t know, she didn’t even want to know the answer, she didn’t have the confidence.
But there was no what ifs, what she envied in the past was now the biggest obstacle between her cousin and Fu Yuanzhou.
They couldn’t be together.
Yu Fei’s mood was extremely complicated, and it took a long time before she said softly: “I will keep it a secret.”
“Okay.” Xie Lin said, “Go to sleep.”
Both of them went upstairs, Yu Fei looked at Xie Lin’s back, and suddenly asked him: “What if I and Yuanyuan get together in the future? What would you think?”
Xie Lin’s figure stopped for a moment. But he didn’t answer.
Fu Yuanzhou didn’t know anything about what happened that night, he had a good night’s sleep, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Xie Lin lying beside him, and he felt very at ease.
After the basketball game, Fu Yuanzhou and Yuan Ye got to know each other, and soon became good buddies. Everyone was surprised, but Fu Yuanzhou didn’t care what they thought, and happily met with Yuan Ye to skip class and go to an Internet cafe to play games.
At first he thought that Yuan Ye was just interested, but later he learned that Yuan Ye intended to become a professional player, and the reason why he skipped classes was because he played various competitions for a considerable part of the time.
“Yes!” Fu Yuanzhou praised him, “You are really ambitious, I support you!”
“Really?” Yuan Ye smiled, “Don’t you think my idea is childish and ridiculous?”
“Who said it’s ridiculous? Who says, I’ll beat them up.”
Yuan Ye said, “My dad said that.”
“…” Fu Yuanzhou changed the subject nonchalantly, “What shall we eat later?”
Yuan Ye was amused by him: “Listen to you, ok.”
“It’s really not ridiculous, you are very powerful.” Fu Yuanzhou returned to the subject, “This is your dream, you work very hard, and you are very talented, it is not impossible.”
“I will take what you said as true.” Yuan Ye laughed, “I haven’t heard you talk about it yet, do you have any dreams?”
“No long-term ones, I think I want to travel around the world in the next few years.” Fu Yuanzhou said, “I plan to go out after the college entrance examination.”
“Don’t forget to come and watch my matches then.”
“Of course, I want to see you win the championship.”
The two of them boasted to each other, and walked out of the private room while talking, planning to have dinner.
Yuan Ye talked about another matter: “I saw you were very angry at noon, what’s the matter?”
“Don’t mention it.”
People usually liked him, of course there were exceptions, but generally speaking, there was no particularly deep hatred he had with someone, but there were two exceptions in high school, one was Ran Shutang, and the other was Yuan Ye.
Now he had reconciled with Yuan Ye and he had become a good friend, but the grudge with Ran Shutang was still not resolved. Fu Yuanzhou hated him very much, much more than he hated Yuan Ye at the beginning, and he even wished that he could beat him after covering him with a sack. Not to mention being friends, even efforts of reconciliation were useless.
The two of them opened the door and came out of the Internet cafe. Fu Yuanzhou was imitating Ran Shutang’s tone of voice, which made Yuan Ye laugh. But at this time, the object of their discussion happened to pass by. The two collided and stopped.
Ran Shutang was carrying a bag, wearing a dark coat, and was as always neatly dressed. It was deep winter, and there had just been a snowfall. The snow on the branches were reflected in his eyebrows and eyes, clean and dust-free, just like him.
He was always expressionless and looked a bit colder than snow, Fu Yuanzhou hated his standard good student appearance, and his expression changed with his mood, and his face immediately darkened.
Ran Shutang was indifferent, and glanced at the signboard of the Internet cafe: “You entered an Internet cafe?”
“It’s none of your business, understand?”
Ran Shutang didn’t say anything, just ignored him, then turned and left.
Fu Yuanzhou pointed his middle finger at his back: “Whatever you keep on pretending, you’re actually too scared!”
“I think he just doesn’t care,” Yuan Ye said.
“You still speak for him?” Fu Yuanzhou was angry, “Which side are you on?”
“Of course, yours.”
Angry, he wanted to beat Yuan Ye, but Yuan Ye finally stopped teasing him, begged him for mercy obediently, and said with a smile, “I’ll treat you at noon, you can eat whatever you want.”
“Do you have enough money?” Fu Yuanzhou squinted at him.
“I don’t have much cash, but I can pay with my mobile phone.” Yuan Ye said, he touched his pocket and found it was empty, “Wait a minute, the mobile phone is not with me, it should be left in the private room, I will go get it.”
“Then hurry up and don’t let others take it away.”
“Yes.”
Yuan Ye responded, but he was not very worried. They hadn’t gone far, but when he turned around, he showed a surprised expression, because he found that Ran Shutang hadn’t left, but was looking at them, to be precise, looking at Fu Yuanzhou’s back view.
Seeing him turn back suddenly, Ran Shutang paused, and left quickly. Yuan Ye was thoughtful and didn’t go to the Internet cafe to get his phone until Fu Yuanzhou urged him again.
It was a pleasure to play games with Yuan Ye, and chatting with Lorenzo as above, Fu Yuanzhou was very happy, but at this moment, the test results dealt him a heavy blow. He did very poorly in the final exam and was among the last few in the class.
Since he entered high school, his grades had plummeted, he used to have good grades, and with Xie Lin as his childhood friend, the comparison was even more cruel. His parents scolded him as soon as he went home, and Fu Yuanzhou was trembling during the entire Spring Festival. After finally making it to the beginning of school, an astonishing bad news came.
The school actually launched one-to-one tutoring, which was applicable across classes, and the person who would be tutoring him was Ran Shutang.

Ran Shutang was carrying a bag, wearing a dark coat, and was as always neatly dressed. It was deep winter, and there had just been a snowfall. The snow on the branches were reflected in his eyebrows and eyes, clean and dust-free, just like him.
