pretend to be poor

That night Tong Huai slept unexpectedly deeply, without dreaming all night.

When I woke up the next day, the fever that had been lingering for a long time had completely subsided.

It was only [-]:[-], the sky was still dark, and the surroundings were silent. Last night, it snowed half the night again, accumulating on the pine trees, and there was an occasional rustling sound of falling snow.

Tong Huai was used to holding things while sleeping, and rolled into Xue Ting's arms in the middle of the night. He opened his eyes and saw that Xue Ting was awake, and smiled at him in a daze: "Tingting, I don't seem to have a fever, can you touch it?"

Xue Ting woke up early, lowered his head and touched his forehead: "The fever is gone."

Tong Huai was still sleepy, and his furry head burrowed into his arms again: "If you don't want to go to school, stay with me for another 5 minutes."

"Ah."

As a result, the narrowing narrowed to six ten.

In the past, Xue Ting would get up before six o'clock, and Mr. Xue woke up early, wondering why his grandson didn't come down, thinking that something had happened, so he went upstairs and knocked on the door: "Xiao Ting? Why can't you pay back today? "

Five minutes later, the door of the room was pushed open.

Xue Ting was neatly dressed, with a sober look on his face, and gave a slight nod to Mr. Xue.

The old man narrowed his eyes, looked over him and looked into the room, saw Tong Huai lazily yawning and putting on his clothes, he was immediately overjoyed: "Little Tong is back!"

Tong Huai felt a little guilty, put on his school uniform, jumped out of bed, and called honestly: "Grandpa."

What's going on here, I'm a couple with your grandson.

If old man Xue knew, he probably wouldn't smile at him so kindly, and would probably throw him out with a stick.

It's nothing, he's thick-skinned anyway.

But what if the old man wants to break Xue Ting's leg?

Tong Huai was so worried that he didn't pay much attention to breakfast.

Xue Ting was very calm, and before leaving, he calmly tied a scarf on Tong Huai under Mr. Xue's nose.

The bus station is not far away, and it takes 3 minutes to arrive.

It was still early, and there were a few people sitting sparsely in the car, either dozing off or playing with their phones with earphones plugged in.Tong Huai and Xue Ting sat in the last row, leaning on Xue Ting to doze off.

He pondered for a while, then remembered something: "Where's Xiao Hua?"

Wasn't Xiao Hua brought back to be raised by Xue Ting's family?

Xue Ting said: "Run away."

Wild and unruly, Xiaohua would rather run out and find a warm place to stay than be kept as a pet.

But sometimes I come back to eat a few rations and put some flowers that bloom in winter back in the yard.

Tong Huai sighed in disappointment.

After a few stops, another pair of boys and girls in school uniforms came up. The school uniforms should be from No. [-] Middle School. Their faces were full of green and immature. They sat in front of them, talking quietly.

"It doesn't take time to come here every day. It's cold and slippery in winter. It's a long way from your house."

"You are upstairs and I am downstairs. I want to see you more."

The girl immediately pursed her lips, half of her face blushing.

The boy was careless, smiling and handing her the hot soybean milk in his hand: "It would be great if we could live together."

"Go, go, go," the girl glared at him, "Puppy love is not enough, you still want to live together."

"is not that right……"

The young couple's conversation fell into his ears word for word, and Tong Huai's drooping long eyelashes trembled, startled.

Are he and Xue Ting living together?

They still sleep together every day.

It is a combination of puppy love, cohabitation, and over-the-top.

Let Lao Zhang know, why don't you hang them directly on the school rules?

Tong Huai couldn't help turning his head away, looking at the calm Xue Ting.

Each of them was wearing an earphone, and random music was playing in the earphone, and Xue Ting was reading a word book.

Tong Huai pulled off the earphone from his left ear, put it close to his ear, and muttered embarrassingly: "...Brother Xue, don't you think we developed too fast, we just fell in love, so we slept together gone."

Of course Xue Ting also heard the conversation in the front row. After thinking for a while, he calmly whispered back in his ear: "Aren't you still asleep?"

"..."

Tong Huai was stunned for several seconds.

After reacting, his whole body boiled, hot red spread from his ears to his cheeks, and he kicked him sullenly: "Fuck, can you stop being such a rascal."

It's not that he doesn't understand anything, he has seen something secretly with Yu Wen, although he really doesn't know what boys and boys are doing, but he has a vague guess about the direction.

Seeing that he looked like a cat with blown fur, Xue Ting's Adam's apple moved, he let out a low laugh, and rubbed his curly hair.

Tong Huai stared at him with strange eyes for a while, feeling that people are not good for appearances, very sad: "You were never like this before."

"Ok?"

"Do you know the word 'abstinence'?" Tong Huai suffered from poor Chinese and didn't know how to convey his meaning perfectly in language. "Anyway, you used to be very abstinent, but now you always play me a hooligan."

Xue Ting rested his chin to watch him stammer, and said leisurely: "Where are the great desires of human beings?"

"what?"

Tong Huai was most afraid of classical Chinese, his forehead was full of question marks, and he really felt that he was bullying the poor students, so he took out his mobile phone angrily to search.

One minute later, Tong Huai closed the webpage silently, and said in confusion, "Aren't you a good student?"

There was a little smile in Xue Ting's voice: "It's still your boyfriend."

Preserving the principles of heaven and destroying human desires is not acceptable.

Tong Huai also had his own thoughts, and decided not to destroy Xue Ting. He snatched the vocabulary book from his hand, and said fiercely, "Don't disturb my study."

Xue Ting leaned back in the chair relaxedly, and lazily responded from his nasal cavity.

As long as he could remember, in that home full of quarrels and disregard for hatred, he never dared to relax for a moment.

Only by Tong Huai's side can he feel at ease.

Like a handful of hard-won warm sunshine, it jumped up and down without warning.

The purpose of transferring schools to avoid Xue Songbo and Yu Hui became meaningful because of Tong Huai.

Xue Ting is very fortunate that after those things happened, Mr. Xue persistently called him many times and asked him to transfer to Linlan.

After coming to Linlan, because I wanted to be quiet, I moved to the place where my grandma used to live.

Otherwise, how would he meet Tong Huai.

The bus was swaying, snow was floating outside the window, listening to the music in the earphones, time seemed to pass no longer so fast.

Tong Huai really memorized the vocabulary, and only when he arrived at school did he put the vocabulary book back in Xue Ting's hand, and walked into the school along the crowd.

The entire No. [-] Middle School was decorated with heavy snow, covered in silver, and there were tall and short snowmen piled up on the playground, surrounded by unknown scarves.

Tong Huai was like a child coming to school for the first time. He looked around and was surprised to see everyone, and he just stared at the boys passing by.

Xue Ting raised his eyebrows and raised his hand to cover his eyes: "What are you looking at?"

Tong Huai's tone was deep: "I'm looking at the world through gay eyes."

"..." Xue Ting asked humbly, "What did you see?"

Tong Huai sensed the danger keenly, and said rainbow fart dog-leggedly: "I see a group of people combined are not as handsome as you."

Xue Ting tapped his forehead amusedly.

Most of the people in the classroom are already seated, and no one wants to move because of the warmth.

Zhao Gou was so sleepy that he yawned all day long, and even complained that it was inhumane to go to school early in the winter, and he was very dissatisfied when he didn't get the response from his good student Chen Yuan. Between Xue Ting and Tong Huai... there seems to be a delicate atmosphere.

It's hard to tell what it is, but it always splashes out in their contact and eye contact, as if there is no room for a third person to intervene.

Zhao Gou held back abruptly as a greeting, hooked Chen Yuan's neck, and lowered his voice: "Old Yuan, the two behind are fighting again? The atmosphere is weird."

Chen Yuan was responsible for the IQ in the Little Sun Group, and he had a lot of contact with Xue Ting, so he knew it well, and pushed him back: "I advise you not to turn on the microphone."

"why?"

"It will be mixed doubles."

"..."

After the morning class, Tong Huai took Xue Ting out for dinner.

The south gate of the school is relatively remote, and there are not many people passing by. It snowed again during the fourth class, covering a few scattered footprints, which made people not bear to step on them.

Tong Huai is afraid of pain, and afraid of falling in winter. He always walks cautiously, step by step, making the snow creak softly, walking very seriously.

Xue Ting likes how serious he is in everything.

He put one hand in his pocket, looked at Tong Huai with his head tilted, and listened to him talking about which restaurant outside the South Gate was delicious, which restaurant was not delicious, and which restaurant was delicious but turned out to be bad after changing the owner. , the corners of her lips curled, and she suddenly called him: "Zai Zai."

I don't know why, whether Tong Jingyuan, grandparents, or Yu Wen called him that, Tong Huai didn't feel anything else.

But when it comes out of Xue Ting's mouth, it always makes his heart tremble, as if being hit by an electric current, and even his fingertips feel numb for a while.

Tong Huai immediately became dumb, and looked at the past with round eyes.

There is a huge cedar tree near the south gate, with luxuriant branches and leaves hanging down. Tong Huai tried to climb it before, but was caught by Lao Zhang passing by, and wrote a [-]-word self-criticism.

Huge cedars block distant surveillance.

Xue Ting put his hands around the back of Tong Huai's head, pressed him to himself, and briefly kissed him on the pale red lips.

The soft and warm touch left his lips, Tong Huai came back to his senses, looked around nervously, his heart beating wildly: "Damn, why are you crazy, what if someone sees it."

Xue Ting straightened the scarf for him, said "uh" casually, and asked casually, "Want to go to the movies on Saturday?"

Tong Huai was not distracted this time, and said vigilantly: "Don't kiss me outside in the future."

"Just go home?"

Facing Xue Ting's dark and deep eyes, Tong Huai swallowed like a small animal keenly smelling danger, and quickly shook his head: "No, you have to notify me first."

Unexpectedly, Xue Ting agreed very readily: "Okay."

It seems that Brother Ting is still very reasonable.

Tong Huai felt relieved again.

Although the two of them openly explained that they were together, they still had to go to school. They got up early and stayed late every day, and Tong Huai slept a lot in winter. Chance.

Xue Ting suspected that he was challenging his patience and willpower.

Saturday comes quickly.

Tong Huai had just recovered from a serious illness and had slept too much lately. It was rare for him to wake up before ten o'clock on Saturday.

Xue Ting, who always got up very early, didn't even get up. He put his pillow upright and sat on the bedside to read a book.

And Tong Huai is like an octopus just out of the sea, with his limbs tightly wrapped around him.

Tong Huai: "..."

Tong Huai let go of his hand cautiously: "Brother Ting, I'll go home and live."

Xue Ting stopped flipping the book and turned to look over: "Why?"

"It's strange to live with you all the time." Tong Huai whispered.It's like living together, too young for children.

"It's not surprising." Xue Ting thought for a while, and said frankly, "I sleep better when you are here."

Living together for so long, Tong Huai knew that Xue Ting was a little mentally weak. His sleep quality was very poor, and he often suffered from insomnia, and even the slightest noise would wake him up.

The root cause is probably because of the endless quarrels and sabotages of parents from childhood to adulthood.

Xue Ting was advancing and retreating, and was moderately miserable: "Before you were not here, I couldn't sleep alone."

Tong Huai's heart softened immediately, he nodded, and said hesitantly: "But if my father comes back, I have to go...to live with him."

Speaking of this, a waterfall of cold sweat suddenly broke out on Tong Huai's back.

The little life was so good that he completely forgot the lie he told.

Would Xue Ting strangle him if he said it directly now?

No, I have to pick an auspicious day to confess.

The nearest auspicious day... is also Christmas.

Tong Huai immediately made a decision, her little heart was pounding, and with a guilty conscience, she pursed her lips and took the initiative to kiss Xue Ting's cheek. Before he could catch her, she jumped as slippery as a small fish Get out of bed and go to the bathroom.

Xue Ting touched the place where he was kissed with his fingertips, looked away, and remembered something.

Tong Huai seemed to have always thought that he was poor.

Due to the relationship between classmates and friends before, he was afraid that Tong Huai would feel a sense of disparity and alienate him after he found out, so he kept silent and let Tong Huai continue to misunderstand.

Now that they are a couple, there is no need to hide it.

Tell Tong Huai directly, Tong Huai may think he is crazy.

How about Christmas in a few days?

The two half-year-old boys had their own thoughts, after washing, Tong Huai slowly chose what to wear today, tidied himself up, and went downstairs for lunch.

Mr. Xue was listening to the news. When he saw Tong Huai coming downstairs, he turned his head with a smile: "Xiaotong is going on a date?"

Tong Huai's heart skipped a beat.

Is it so obvious?

Fortunately, the old man said "I understand you young people" and didn't ask much.

His legs were almost healed, but it was freezing cold, and Xue Ting still ruthlessly grounded him, so he could only walk around in the yard.

After going out, Tong Huai let out a long sigh of relief.

Xue Ting looked at him: "So afraid of being discovered?"

If Tong Huai is afraid, they can keep it a secret. They will take their time in the past few years and let Tong Huai's parents accept the method of boiling frogs in warm water. They will not be in a hurry to come out again.

He had just roughly made a plan in his mind when he heard Tong Huai say: "Isn't it because you are afraid that your leg will be broken, and grandpa is getting old, so don't scare him."

Xue Ting was startled, and couldn't help but smirk.

It turned out that the child was cautious because he was worried about him.

There was a little smile between his eyebrows: "don't worry about me, there will be no problem."

Tong Huai has searched a lot of cases recently, and his psychological shadow has emerged. He is not very worried about himself, but mainly worried that Xue Ting will be under too much pressure, so he pursed his lips and said nothing.

It was the first date to watch a movie, and Tong Huai was unwilling to spoil the atmosphere by saying something so serious about coming out as a closet. Last night, he carefully selected a movie that fit their current theme, falling in love.

At the cinema, Tong Huai lined up to buy popcorn and Coke, and asked Xue Ting to wait.

Under Xue Ting's suggestion, he still wore the bright red sweater today, which stood out quite conspicuously in the crowd, and after standing for a while, someone came to ask for WeChat.Tong Huai sternly refused, turning around to see Xue Ting jealous, but when he turned his head, he saw two girls walking up to Xue Ting to talk to him.

Tong Huai: "..."

This vinegar is overwhelming!

Seeing that Xue Ting frowned slightly and refused to leave twice, Tong Huai thought to himself that I just fell in love, so don't even try to stain me with a drop of green, and he didn't even buy Coke and popcorn, so he just walked out of the line and strode away past.

One of the girls said in a coquettish tone: "Little brother, add a WeChat?"

Can you have me acting like a baby?

Disdainful in Tong Huai's heart, he stretched out his hand to hook Xue Ting's shoulder, and smiled subtly: "He won't add it."

Xue Ting raised his eyebrows, and bowed slightly towards him cooperatively.

Suddenly a beautiful young boy appeared again, both girls were taken aback.

Tong Huai's face was serious and serious: "My brother is a wechat business that sells facial masks. Wechat friend limit is limited. If you want to buy our company's products and go offline for long-term cooperation, you can add me. I'm an agent. We also sell masks in our side business. Tea, handmade tea half a catty five thousand, welcome to taste."

Two girls: "..."

Surprised and terrified, the two glanced around at the handsome guys in front of them who looked abnormal, and quickly waved their hands away: "No, no, goodbye!"

Xue Ting: "..."

Huai Zai, I really belong to you.

Tong Huai was refreshed, checked the ticket, and dragged Xue Ting to the screening room.

The corners of Xue Ting's mouth, which had been stretched for a long time, finally loosened, and he tugged slightly: "Just now..."

Tong Huai blocked his words with sharp eyes: "Do you want to add them as friends?"

"Do not want to."

"If you don't want to and can't refuse people, then don't thank me."

Xue Ting laughed, and rubbed his curly hair, which had recovered to a seventy-eighth degree: "Thank you for my agent and little boyfriend."

The two are at the top.

This film was just released some time ago, with rave reviews and bad reputation. Not many people came to see it. From here, you can see the mountains and mountains. There are only a few people sitting in the front row. They are all couples.

Tong Huai turned on the phone and flipped through the comments, muttering inwardly.

Is it that ugly?

——Facts have proved that this movie is really that ugly.

The plot is long and complicated, and the story is messy. The only saving grace is that the camera is used very well.

However, Tong Huai doesn't watch the plot, and can watch it with great interest just by looking at the camera.

When choosing a movie yesterday, Xue Ting expected the deserted end of the movie, but he didn't expect Tong Huai to watch it so seriously.

He even stared at the big screen intently, completely forgetting him.

What a mistake.

He folded his hands, spent a little more patience, and waited for another ten minutes. The couple in the front row were already kissing each other, and Tong Huai, the best audience, was still watching with gusto.

Xue Ting: "..."

Tong Huai suddenly turned his head: "Brother Ting, I want to study hard."

One protagonist in the movie worked desperately in order to catch up with another protagonist—although the screenwriter and director did not show this effort, it still touched Tong Huai.

Tong Huai suddenly thought, if the two of them came out, he might not be able to deal with Lao Tong, and it would be a disaster if Lao Tong cut off his source of income.If he doesn't study hard, he will definitely hinder Xue Ting.

Xue Ting raised his eyebrows, not understanding why Tong Huai made such a decision suddenly, but he still nodded: "I'll teach you."

Tong Huai thought a lot, but didn't say it, nodded, and turned back to continue watching.

Xue Ting: "..."

Patience and sanity broke down together.

He stretched out his hand directly and pushed the person towards him.

The projection hall was pitch black, and it was difficult to see each other's faces clearly. Those beautiful eyes reflected the faint light, still clear and bright, full of doubts.

Speaking of watching a movie, do you really think it’s just watching a movie?

Xue Ting sighed helplessly, rubbed the back of his neck, and lowered his voice: "Zai Zai."

"Ok?"

"Open your mouth."

Tong Huai opened his mouth to speak, but Xue Ting held his face, lowered his head and kissed him.

His eyes widened, his heartbeat accelerated instantly, his fingers were soft and feeble grasping Xue Ting's neckline, a little dizzy.

...Is the gay world so exciting?

he thinks.
