Cheng Si's mind was a mess and buzzing because of what Jin Li had just said.

He trembled his lips, his eyes full of confusion, as if he wanted to say something, but before he opened his mouth he was interrupted by a cold voice.

"What? Are you acting out Romance in the Rain here?" Qian Yu walked to the door of his house, looked up and saw a wet person standing at the door. He frowned and sneered indifferently.

Cheng Si barely came back to his senses, turned sideways to look at the person who came, and asked somewhat helplessly, "Brother, why are you back?"

Qian Yu put away the umbrella in his hand, shook off the water on the umbrella with one hand under the eaves, and then said lightly, "I'm taking a leave of absence from the evening class."

At this time, Cheng Si also saw the cake in his other hand and understood what was going on. After feeling complicated, a warm feeling surged in his heart.

Qian Yu put away his umbrella and looked at Jin Li expressionlessly, "Please don't block other people's doorsteps."

When Jin Li saw Qian Yu coming over, he glanced at him without any emotion, stepped aside to make way for him, and said casually, "Please come in."

Qian Yudao cooperated and opened the door, seemingly about to walk in, but he stopped at the door and raised his eyebrows, "My brother is just 16 years old." He didn't say the rest, but it was obvious that he heard the conversation between the two.

Jin Li's eyelids twitched, and he smiled good-naturedly, "So I have to act sooner rather than later. What will I do if someone else poaches me in the future?"

Qian Yu was choked by the man's arrogant words and sneered, "Idiot." Then he pulled Cheng Si in and slammed the door shut.

Cheng Si was frightened by this scene, but at this moment he was also somewhat grateful to his cousin. He actually didn't know how to deal with the situation just now.

But he didn't follow Qian Yu inside, but stood there in a daze. Qian Yu ignored him and walked to the table and put down the cake.

Then he walked to the sofa and sat down, took out his cell phone and made a call. After a while, he hung up the phone and looked at Cheng Si, frowning helplessly, "What are you standing there for? Come here, I want to talk to you."

Cheng Si nodded stiffly, looked at the closed door, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly walked towards the sofa.

Cheng Si sat down for a while before Qian Yu asked with some headache, "Do you like boys?" This question was very straightforward, and he paused after saying it, "If not, I can help you with the rest."

Cheng Si was speechless after hearing this, then nodded, his voice a little hoarse, "I like it."

Seeing him like this, Qian Yu sighed in annoyance even though he had guessed it long ago, "Okay, I can't control this matter either. Think about it carefully."

Cheng Si lowered his head, not knowing what to say. It was a rainy day, but his palms were hot and slightly sweaty.

Qian Yu continued, "As for your parents..." He paused. Cheng Si looked at Qian Yu nervously. Qian Yu smiled and looked at him, "Why are you in such a hurry? I won't tell them."

Cheng Si pursed her lips upon hearing this, "Thank you, cousin."

The two were chatting in a somewhat tense atmosphere when there was a noise coming from the door.

"Hey, Xiao Jin, why are you all wet?" Yu Yan looked at Jin Li standing at the door of her house with some surprise.

Jin Li smiled gently, "Godmother, I'm fine. I just got caught in the rain."

Yu Yan glanced at him and said disapprovingly, "How can it be okay? The weather is getting colder now, you will catch a cold." Then she asked in confusion, "Why are you standing at the door?"

Jin Li didn't mention what happened just now, but just explained, "I came to give Cheng Si a gift. Isn't today his birthday?"

Yu Yan smiled even happier after hearing this, "Then you are really thoughtful. You must have a very good relationship. You celebrated his birthday on such a rainy day."

Yu Yan used the key to unlock the door. "I don't know if he's back yet. I just remembered this morning that it's Cheng Cheng's birthday, so I was thinking about celebrating his birthday. Come on, come in with me first."

Yu Yan had already opened the door when she spoke. As soon as she entered, she saw her son and nephew sitting on the sofa. She looked at the wet Jin Li at the door and frowned awkwardly, "Little Jin, I'll go get you some dry clothes to change into."

Jin Li stood at the door and didn't go in. He smiled slightly after hearing this, and said helplessly, "Godmother, no need. I just came here to give you a gift. I can change my clothes after walking a few steps home."

Yu Yan was stunned for a moment when she heard this. Looking at Jin Li's expression, she guessed that he must have had a conflict with Cheng Si, so she didn't force him to stay.

Jin Li handed the gift to Yu Yan, glanced in Cheng Si's direction, politely greeted Yu Yan and left. Seeing Cheng Si's reaction, he didn't want to push him too much. Besides, his family was still here and it would not be good for him if he crossed the line.

After Jin Li left, Yu Yan sighed and looked at the two people on the sofa helplessly, "I say, you two ancestors, why can't you talk it out in a nice way? Why do you always like to lock people out?"

Yu Yan rubbed her eyebrows and sat on the sofa. Jin Li was such a likable child, sensible, thoughtful and sweet-spoken, so why couldn't he get along with her own child?

Cheng Si now felt that he had gone too far. No matter what the reason was, he should not have left Jin Li alone outside.

Qian Yu said "Oh" with a unhappy expression, "I like standing outside the door, who can I blame?"

Yu Yan scolded him, but Cheng Si didn't listen to what they were saying. His eyes unconsciously looked at the things Yu Yan had just put down, and he looked at those things with mixed feelings.

Yu Yan patted the stunned Cheng Si and asked slowly, "Cheng Cheng, where do you want to eat on your birthday today?"

Cheng Si came back to her senses and pursed her lips, "Aunt, it's raining today so let's eat at home."

Yu Yan didn't have any objection to this. She looked at the cakes on the table and thought helplessly, "Why did this kid from the Jin family buy such a big cake?"

She smiled and shook her head helplessly, "Then why don't you ask your classmates to come celebrate your birthday with you? We can't finish such a big cake, and there's more than one."

Cheng Si also looked at the two cakes on the table. His cousin also bought a big cake. He seemed to remember something and clicked on the phone interface. A message appeared on it, "The cake you bought cannot be delivered due to rain. Please understand!"

The message also came with a coupon and refund confirmation information.

Cheng Si was relieved when he saw this message. He didn't want to celebrate his birthday in the first place, but now he had to invite them over for dinner.
