There's a mermaid in my bathtub

"Li Shangning, I'm not talking about you. If you have nothing to do, run slowly. The floor tiles here are not very flat. Don't always be in a hurry. If you fall, I won't have time to catch you."

A familiar voice sounded behind him, Jin Sheng kept his back facing, and grasped the crutch tightly to support his body. Even though he told himself that he had completely let go of the past and didn't care, he could still tremble uncontrollably when he heard the voice.

Therefore, it is still impossible to forget a whole year in three months.

In other words, Jin Sheng has never 'forgotten', and has been deeply involved in it for two months.

"I'm not a porcelain doll, Chang Hao, you don't have to make such a fuss all the time, it doesn't matter."

"Is it okay? When you were young, you ran too fast, so you fell and hurt your knee. The scar has not healed yet. With your constitution, you can't be injured at all. Am I wrong about you?"

It turned out to be this Li Shangning.

I finally remembered where I saw this young man. It turned out that this was the object of his ex-boyfriend's love for more than ten years. The dazzling white moonlight and warm cinnabar mole, but only two days of appearance offset his year and a half of emotional pouring people.As for the man named 'Chang Hao' who caught up later, it was the main reason why Jin Sheng came out openly half a year ago.

It's not that they are in love, but they spend too much time together. Jin Sheng's experience in this aspect is too limited. As the first love, Chang Hao is the first person to occupy the position of his other half, so he is extremely sensitive.

It's the first time to experience "broken love", he is not too fragile.

It's a small world.

With a sneer, he stepped up and planned to leave. Jin Sheng's family still had mermaids to feed, and he didn't have time and didn't want to witness his ex-boyfriend's pursuit of Bai Yueguang.

"Wait a minute, did you just buy the last cake in this store?"

Unhappily, Li Shangning grabbed Jin Sheng's wrist without hesitation, smiling all over his eyes, probably not knowing that Jin Sheng and Chang Hao had ever been involved.

"It's like this. It's my birthday today. My friend said that the cakes here are delicious, so we took the subway from the westernmost side of City S and chased the bus to the city center. We wanted to buy this kind of cake. Who knew that the cake shop would say It’s a promotion and it’s sold out, and I happened to see the bag you were carrying when I came out just now, so I wanted to ask, if you can sell us the cake, I can offer a high price.”

Birthday?

Frowning slightly, Jin Sheng didn't believe Li Shangning's words.

Based on his one-year relationship and his understanding of his ex-boyfriend, if today is Li Shangning's birthday, Chang Hao must have made arrangements.As far as he knows, Li Shangning is heterosexual, that's why Chang Hao has never confessed and kept hiding his love, but even if the two are still ordinary friends, Li Shangning is also the person Chang Hao wants to pursue. Maybe let him work hard to catch this cake?

"Jin Sheng?"

Annoying things happened one after another, and now that they met, Chang Hao finally recognized his figure, should he sigh that the light of this young man named Li Shangning is too strong, completely covering his existence.

Ignoring his ex-boyfriend, Jin Sheng just raised his eyes and glanced at Li Shangning lightly.When they broke up, Chang Hao said that he was dating him because of Li Shangning in him, but no matter how Jin Sheng looked at it now, he couldn't find any similarities between the two.

Perhaps, that was just Chang Hao's random excuse for breaking up, but Jin Sheng took it seriously.

"Chang Hao, do you two know each other?"

"Well, we are...friends."

It's still uncomfortable to hear that.

Jin Sheng and Chang Hao broke up peacefully. He had a new "pursuit" and he didn't bother him too much.With a sneer, he turned his head to look at Chang Hao, the man remained unchanged as before, his features were sharp and stiff, and his unruly aura was very flamboyant, as if he had the ability to fight against the whole world.

He stopped and let go of his hands. Even though the atmosphere in the room between the three was obviously weird, Li Shangning was full of smiles and extended his right hand to Jin Sheng again and said sincerely: "Is Jin Sheng? Hello, my name is Li Shangning, this is Chang Hao We grew up together, we didn’t separate until college, and we just came back three months ago. That’s how it is, today…”

"You said it just now."

Looking at Li Shangning's outstretched hand, he sighed and interrupted his enthusiastic words, "Sorry, my hands are full."

He remained motionless, and did not intend to put down the things in his left hand, switch hands on crutches, and hold them back with his right hand.

Everyone has the right to pursue happiness. Jin Sheng doesn't blame Chang Hao, but he doesn't want to have anything to do with him when the object of his love comes back to him and leaves because he has a better choice.

"That's it, then..."

"Happy birthday, but I can't give you the cake. I...I want to take it home to eat with others. Take the 803 bus from here to the terminal, and the cake shop there is also good."

"Who are you taking home to eat with? What day is it today?" Li Shangning interrupted Li Shangning who was about to speak, and after hearing Jin Sheng's words, Chang Hao, who kept silent, was Jin's expression was not very good, as if he was dissatisfied with him so fast' Another new love', the black eyes glanced at Jin Sheng's right leg, and then stopped on his crutch: "Who came with you, you...do you want me to send you home?"

"Huh? Didn't you two come here to buy cakes because you were squeezing the subway or the bus? Why, did you even drive on the subway?" Easy found the loophole, and subconsciously asked, Li Shangning's complexion was not good at this moment.

He didn't have time to pay attention to the kind of medicine sold in the two people's gourds, and wanted to prove or show off in front of him. He just felt that it was getting late and there were... fish waiting at home.

"I'm leaving first, and I have to go home to feed the fish." Taking advantage of the two people's silence, they turned and left, just as another taxi stopped by the side of the road.

Reaching out his hand to signal, the driver was also very enthusiastic, and got out of the car directly to help Jin Sheng carry things.The bad mood has improved because of the concern at home, at least now there is a mermaid at home, and he is not considered alone.

It's better to have something to do at home and take care of the mermaid than to be alone at home.

Jin Sheng left quickly, and the atmosphere of the two who stayed in the small square became a little stiff.

It was Chang Hao who proposed to break up in the first place. They hadn't seen each other for two months, and only found out that they had been together for a year when they saw Jin Sheng again. His position in his heart was much more important than he imagined.Seeing that the man took the cake home and found a new date so soon, the heart was filled with sourness, and it was a bit unpleasant.

As for Li Shangning, stopping Jin Sheng was not a coincidence, it was even intentional.

He had seen Chang Hao's wallet, and there was a photo of Jin Sheng and Chang Hao quite intimately in it, he was very concerned, so he took a look around.

There are some things that are inappropriate to ask. It is a coincidence to meet the person in the photo, and the behavior just now is just a way to verify it.Now that his guess has been verified, he naturally becomes hostile towards Jin Sheng.

Li Shangning closed his eyes, seeing that Chang Hao was still looking solemnly at the direction where Jin Sheng left, feeling a little dissatisfied.

Although he and Chang Hao have not yet confirmed their relationship, Li Shangning knows that Chang Hao was interested in him once, and the boy who has been running behind him since elementary school has grown up to make him very satisfied.

Heterosexuality is still pretending to have ulterior motives, I am afraid only the parties will know.

To put it bluntly, Li Shangning came back to this city because of Chang Hao. He knew that he had made a small success in his career and had his own plans.They separated after graduating from high school. In these years, everyone has changed. Li Shangning is no longer the scheming little boy in Chang Hao's eyes, or, from the very beginning, he is very different from what Chang Hao thought.

"Chang Hao, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just haven't seen him for a long time. Shang Ning, when did you... change your birthday?"

"It's just an excuse. I just passed by the cake shop, and the cake was gone. I saw you were very disappointed, so I just found an excuse."

Blinking his eyes, Li Shangning smiled harmlessly, but instead choked Chang Hao.He lowered his head, took out his mobile phone and didn't know what he was looking at, continued to do it and said indifferently: "We haven't seen each other for a long time, I always feel that there is something you didn't tell me, even chocolate is acceptable, are you still an old classmate?"

"No, it's because you think too much." Looking away, Chang Hao sighed, seeing Jin Sheng again, let all his good mood of the day fade away, and the smile on his face was a bit powerless.

"I think in the middle of this month, we have an event in the aquarium here. I haven't been there for many years... It's just a bit boring to go by two people. Otherwise, call Jin Sheng and let's go together?"

"What are you calling him for?" Chang Hao's mood fluctuated greatly, and Chang Hao narrowed his eyes slightly. This was the first time Li Shangning asked him out, but Jin Sheng was inexplicably involved.

"It's just that there are so many people. And look, there are three people's activities in the aquarium, and the three of us are just right." The mobile phone called up the event page and delivered it. Chang Hao swipe twice, and indeed saw the "three people's activities" project, nothing more What kind of competition won the prize, he curled his lips and said: "How old are you still playing this."

"Hey! Look clearly, there will be overseas theater performances in the middle of this month, only for two weeks, and only on weekends. The prize for the event is a VIP ticket in the front row of the theater performance. Although it is luck, what if? Come back I haven't had time to contact my former friends in the past few months, and you are the only one who has met face-to-face, and you don't want to go with someone you don't know well, so you can be self-willed once, can't you?"

"..."

Wanting to say that he could entrust someone to buy the tickets, but when he found out that the tickets were sold out, Chang Hao frowned, a little embarrassed, but he temporarily chose to compromise under Li Shangning's expectant eyes, no matter whether he was helpless or confused, he was favored by the late comer .Drown covered.

The Li Shangning in Chang Hao's eyes has never changed, and with him, it seems that he has returned to his student days.

"Then another day, I'll ask him if he has time."

"Well, I look forward to hearing from you."
